SUNDAY RECAP: AFC VARIETY

Joey Harrington/Daunte Culpepper- Joey Harrington wasn't too impressive on Sunday, but he did keep the Dolphins hanging around. Following the performance, Nick Saban said that Joey Harrington would start next Sunday. Neither QBs should be starting in fantasy, and there's really no reason to own the disappointing Culpepper anymore.

Leon Washington- Another rookie who looks impressive is the former Florida State running back. Washington totaled 102 yards on 23 carries. With Kevan Barlow unimpressive so far and Cedric Houston hurt, it would not be surprising to see Washington as the team's starter soon.

Dominic Rhodes/Joseph Addai- Score one for Dominic Rhodes this week. Addai had looked like he was on a fast track to becoming the starter, but this week Rhodes had 110 yards on 25 total touches. Addai finished with 15 touches and 62 yards on the ground. Both RBs were productive against the weak Titans rush defense, and it seems it's a tossup weekly on who will be better.

Maurice Jones-Drew- The Jaguars backup RB continued a very impressive rookie campaign by scoring twice on Sunday. He seems to be the real deal and Fred Taylor's eventual successor. Taylor has been very productive all season, but he always seems to be on the verge of injury, and therefore it's important to own Jones-Drew.

Vince Young- The highly touted rookie QB definitely improved on his first start with a decent performance against Indianapolis. He wasn't asked to do much as the Titans ran the ball basically the whole game, but Young finished going 10 for 21 with 63 yards passing and a rushing TD. By December, he should be much more comfortable, but he's not worthy of a roster spot right now.

Travis Henry/LenDale White- One thing we learned this week was play any RB against the Colts defense. Henry had a great day rushing for 123 yards on 19 carries. LenDale White was also very good rushing 8 times for 48 yards. It seems like this is the state of the Titans running game: Travis Henry will be the starter, LenDale White will get a lot of work and be the starter of the future, and Chris Brown is the odd man out.

Larry Johnson- Just when it seemed like Larry Johnson was on his way back to greatness, a potential injury has made his owners nervous again. Johnson was forced to leave after a dirty face mask by Antrel Rolle gave him a neck injury. It doesn't appear too serious, but he will have an MRI.

Randy Moss- For the second straight week Moss found the endzone. The Raiders offense is extremely inconsistent and Moss is a shaky play as a result. You have to start him because he's Randy Moss, but he's far removed from his top 5 WR form. A change of scenery would be the best scenario for him.

LaDainian Tomlinson- LT could not get anything going against the Steelers defense Sunday night. It was once of his worse games in recent memory. This will be LT's lowest value all season, and if there's anyway you can trade for him, you must do it. He should bounce back nicely against San Francisco. Michael Turner is beginning to steal a few carries, and it's worth watching.

Phillip Rivers/Antonio Gates- Surprisingly, the Chargers still won despite LT's struggles. The main reason for this was the Chargers coaching staff being able to trust Philip Rivers more. Rivers had a good game against a tough defense, and looks like an improving quarterback every week. Luckily for Gates owners, Rivers looked for Gates a lot more, especially in the redzone. Gates caught a TD and had 55 yards, and his value should be on he way up.
