What theymight be doing ...

LeGarrette Blount might be taking fantasy wild-card teams to the Fantasy Bowl.

Tim Hightower might be doing the same. Note for 2011: It pays to have players on the bench with soft schedules in weeks 14, 15 and 16.

FANTASY REALITY: THE LINE

Whom to start each week

Last week: 3-0

Season: 30-12

If you need a sub for Aaron Rodgers:

Jason Campbell -2 over Josh Freeman Campbell thinks he's Cam Newton lately, and gets to face Denver. Freeman is streaky, but he gets the Lions.

If you need a sub for Antonio Gates:

Owen Daniels -4 over Randy McMichael Daniels was probably cut by a frustrated owner months ago. He's healthy again and had a nice game last week. McMike scored twice the last time Gates was hurt. Don't expect that again.

If you have a fantasy deathwish and for some reason are considering taking a flier:

Kenny Britt -10 over Randy Moss Britt went bananas in Week 7 (225 and 3!) and promptly sat out six weeks with an injury until last week. If he was cut grab him, say a prayer, close your eyes and start him vs. the terrible Texans. ... That might be the last time we type "Randy Moss" in a fantasy column (tear, sniffle).
