These arent fantasy picks, but they could be. Was just looking at the old schedual and I compiled a short list of: Players who will shred the Bengals defense.

Player #1 Ray Rice-Ravens     This guy looks like a young Jamal Lewis that can catch and run 80 yards at full speed. He runs right through half hearted tackles. You may be wondering about Willis Mcgahee. If hes not hurt he will have a big game too.

Player(s)#2 Brandon Jacobs, Derrick Ward, and(or) Amahd Bradshaw. One of them will. You know it. You think Brandon Jacobs will have a problem running Marvin White over? Or Bradshaw wont beat Rashad Jeanty to the outside? Slam dunk.

Player#3 Rashard Mendenhall- Steelers rookie running back. Once again what bout Willie Parker. I think the steelers will go back the 2 back system the always used before. Now they got two good backs to keep that fourth quarter lead by milking the clock. They used to bring Bettis in 3rd quarter and just kill time. there will be enough carries for both guys

Player#4 Maurice Jones-Drew- You all know. I dont have to tell you a thing.

Player#5 Brian Westbrook- prediction 125 yrds rushing, 90+yrds recieving and at least 2 tds. Thats conservative I think.

Hope you enjoyed my negativity. But if your these players its positive. I guess everything is relative.

Note: In my last post I unfairly labeled football "the sport which affords more opportunty for greatness".Just got to say it, basketball is right up there too. So Im just hating on baseball and all those other sports that nobody cares about.
