Week 13: NFL Play of the Week

Yes, today it is the Dallas Cowboys.  Give new coach Jason Garrett a lot of credit for getting this team to play hard.  They may not be a playoff team, but they are better than the unit that was slaughtered by the Green Bay Packers a few short weeks ago.

Dallas getting 5.5 at Indy this week is a strong play.  Indy is hurting and Dallas will be ready for what the Colts throw at them.

Also, the Cowboys are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games after allowing less than 90 yards rushing in their previous game.  The Colts play well at home, but I cam see Dallas losing by a field goal as time expires, or winning the game.

Week 13: Fantasy Football Buy, Sell, or Hold

It's time to look ahead to NFL week 13 after week 12 is now in the books. Let's call week 12 "Separation Sunday". We had some teams separate themselves from the pack with big wins. The Falcons, Bears, Chiefs, and Giants took big steps forward.

Week 12 also featured Bears quarterback Jay Cutler throwing 4 TD passes and the Colts' Peyton Manning throwing an unbelievable 4 interceptions.

If your team is fighting to make the playoffs, good luck and here's this week's buy, sell, or hold.

Buy

Sam Bradford, QB Rams - Bradford continues to put up numbers and that should continue in week 13 as he goes against Arizona and their 27th ranked pass defense.

Kevin Boss, TE Giants - Boss had a great game in week 12 with 74 yards and a touchdown. Boss is a reliable pass catcher and is hard to bring down when running. Look for Eli Manning to keep looking for Boss.

Toby Gerhart, RB Vikings - With Adrian Peterson going in for an MRI today, Gerhart will be a good pickup and a potential starter. More on Peterson should be known as the week goes on.

Matt Cassel, QB Chiefs - Cassel is back playing the Broncos who he lit up in week 10. The Cassel to Bowe combo is lethal. Start Cassel.

Sell

Bruce Gradkowski, QB Raiders - Gradkowski injured his shoulder against Miami and is expected to miss next week. Jason Campbell will be back starting. Adjust your lineup accordingly.

The Packers Running Game - The lack of a running game cast the Packers the game at Atlanta.

Seahawks Defense - They have been awful, and don't expect that to change this week against Kansas City.

Frank Gore, RB 49ers - A bad leg injury suffered on Monday night ends his season and probably the 49ers playoff hopes.

Hold

Peyton Manning, QB Colts - Peyton Manning a hold? After the 4 interception performance against San Diego he's on the watch list. It's not all his fault, his usually reliable receivers dropped a slew of passes and the Colts are dealing with injuries at just about every position. Take a wait and see approach with Manning heading down the stretch.
