#1 Rated QB matchup this week. That said Ryan has also been very hot of late. Ben has been rather up and down this season so the matchup ranking was a bit of a surprise. Who would you start over Ben this week?

Antonio Brown (toe) didn't practice Saturday. Brown is now in serious danger of missing the Steelers Week 13 game against the Bengals on Monday night. Despite an earlier report saying "he should be fine", Brown looks to be a true game-time decision. Source: Jeremy Fowler on Twitter What are us Brown owners to do? I'm playing one of the worst teams in my league this week thankfully, so I think I'm going to just sit him to be safe. The Monday night situation is not ideal.

Week 4 is almost over what have we learned? Let’s start with the Steelers pummeling Kansas City! I thought this would be a really good game as KC supposedly have a great defense. I started them on my fantasy team. My opponent started Big Ben. No surprise, I got bent over like a rented mule, and I now hate KC and Fantasy Football in general. I can’t believe the Steelers go from getting an epic beat down last week, to administering an epic beat down of their own this week. Also the refs absolutely HATE Antonio Brown. Apparently the No Fun League doesn’t allow any endzone dancing or celebrating, Brown will have to do his twerking on the sidelines. Also I legitimately thought Mike Tomlin’s eyeballs were going to pop out of his head when the refs didn’t call a penalty for a late hit on Ben…nobody does the crazy-eyes like Tomlin. Finally…Former 1st round draft pick Alex Smith, aka Captain Checkdown was brutal to watch. They’re down 36 and he’s still playing 5-10 yard dink and dunk, does the guy ever throw deep, like ever? Alex be like: “Noooo…we’re down 36 points coach, I can’t take a chance, I gotta checkdown every play!“ Rex Ryan just saved his job for another year. I haven’t even watched the post-game presser yet, but I know exactly what a big stupid happy red-faced Sexy-Rex said. “Ahh we’re great. Nothing like taking it to Belichick. We had this game circled on the calendar and these guys came out motivated and played hard…we can’t wait to meet them again this season…blah, blah, blah.” Sure thing Rex. You know he screamed at his team the entire week beforehand to make sure they won this, nobody gets jacked up to beat Belichick like Rex does. He probably threatened to take away all of the players foot-rubs and snacks if they lost this game. Now he’s gonna ride this to another year of mediocrity, when we finish 8-8 again, he’ll still keep his job and they won’t fire him, why? Because…he beat New England once. The Bills who probably think they’re gonna win the Superbowl at 2-2...Meanwhile the Pats are 3-1 without Brady, and he’s back next week, and will soon cruise through that weak ass division. Trust me, the Bills suck, they’ll probably find a way to lose a game on their bye week. Carolina’s season is done, and Oakland is for real: The Panthers have a major Superbowl hangover and Cam just got his bell rung bad this weekend, he’ll be out for a bit. He went completely wet-noodle legs after getting cranked in the side of the head by Atlanta’s linebacker. Not that I want to see injuries inflicted on my fellow human beings, but I’m pretty sure a sarcastic laugh happened across the NFL when he got TKO’d. Pay attention to Oakland. They’re back, they have a great offense, and they will make the playoffs as a Wild Card, I think. Also more reason to hate Fantasy Football? I had ###### Crabtree on the bench while he hauled in 3 touchdowns. F. off, I hate this game. The 2 most interesting QBs were off this week: Captain Touchdown (My man Aaron Rodgers) and Carson “The Real Deal” Wentz were resting up this week. They are both pretty awesome to watch, just sayin’. Wentz needs a cool nickname. Monday Night Prediction: Vikings have that purple people eater defense is great. Their season was supposed to be over with their QB Bilge-water out, as well as Pederson blowing up his knee again, yet after tonight they’re gonna be 4-0. Unless the Giants do what the Giants always do because they are GAMBLING POISON I HATE THE GIANTS THEY ALWAYS SCREW ME EVERY WEEK ALONG WITH THEIR ENTIRE STUPID NFC EAST DIVISION, I HATE BETTING ON THESE TEAMS…whew, ok sorry I got that out of my system…I’m out. Cheers!

Dri Archer can play the Shane Vereen role and Blount is now a member of the Steelers after scoring 7 TDs for the Patriots (4 in last 2 weeks) in 2013. Ridley saw 178 carries (just 2 games with 20+), rushed for 773 yards (one 100 yard game) and scored 7 TDs...is that what we should expect to see from Bell in 2014, with a bit more receptions (Ridley had 10)? I understand that Ridley lost time due to fumbles, but could we see a similar stat production from Bell in 2014? Bell averaged 18 carries a game last season and it was not until Week 16 that he rushed for 100 yards, doing it against the Green Bay Packers on a season high 26 carries. He did finish the season strong, gaining 405 yards over the Steelers last 5 games on 101 carries, good enough for 4 YPC, and scored 4 touchdowns. LeSean McCoy, Ryan Mathews, DeMarco Murray , Matt Forte, and C.J. Spiller were the only other RBs to rush for 400+ yards during that span. Blount, Murray, Steven Jackson, and Eddie Lacy were the only RBs to score 5 times. 5 other RBs scored 4 TDs. Le'Veon Bell was a Top 10 RB to finish the fantasy football season.
