Minutes of exhaustive research revealed to me that the highlights of the two long touchdowns to Mattel handheld electronic football games. Odds are it will be more fantasy relevant than this game.

Sell: Anquan Boldin. At this point, he's barely ownable in any 10- or 12-team league. Use your bench for a guy with upside like Robert Woods, Cordarrelle Patterson, or Kenny Stills.

Hold: Both quarterbacks. This was an extremely physical game with two great defenses. Write off the stat lines and move on.

Cardinals 27, Texans 24

Case Keenum is a great story. So is The Little Mermaid, and she isn’t a great fantasy player either. I am well aware of how good his numbers have been, but in fantasy we deal in what is most likely to happen. So, is it more likely that Keenum flames out or that he becomes the first quarterback in memory to go from undrafted practice squad player to fantasy relevant? I think we know the answer.

At this point I don’t think there is any question that Rashard Mendenhall has nude photos of coach Bruce Arians. But considering that Mendenhall is still getting 15 touches per game, I am left to wonder what sort of act he caught Arians doing in said pictures.

Buy: As much as I am not in Camp Keenum, Andre Johnson has benefitted hugely from the gunslinging, second-year quarterback. He is a high-end WR1 ROS.

Sell: Case Keenum as a full-blown fantasy starter. Maybe this is more obvious to people than I think, but when I Googled his name, one of the top results was an article on a major site that states Keenum is becoming a legitimate QB1. To be fair, his upcoming schedule is favorable.

Hold: Andre Ellington touched the ball only 13 times. He is a somewhat dicey flex play as his usage seems to be a bit up in the air, but has the ability to have huge games even with the limited use. Don’t get discouraged; he may end up getting more and more action as the season wears on.

Broncos 28, Chargers 20

The next time somebody blames poor quarterback play on a lack of weapons, tell them to look at Philip Rivers. He is having an outstanding year (both in real life and pretend pigskin) despite having an aged tight end, a rookie number one receiver, a sub-par ground game and a patchwork (which is putting it generously) offensive line. No quarterback in the NFL has done more with less; the anti-Dalton, if you will. To me, Rivers is the runner up in the AFC offensive player of the year race.

Buy: All the usual suspects on both offenses. There is a lot to like.

Sell: The idea that Knowshon Moreno is going to cede enough carries to Montee Ball to have any impact on his fantasy value. Moreno is a locked-in RB1.

Hold: Keenan Allen had his worst game since Week 3. Don’t let it affect your opinion of the stud rookie. He is a top-15 play ROS.

Saints 49, Cowboys 17

With Dallas, there really isn’t much to say. This was a lost game for them that doesn’t really have much in the way of impact on their fantasy projections. Don’t overreact to one outing against a team that played out of their minds at home coming off an embarrassing loss. These things happen.

Just as it is hard to look too much into this game for the Cowboys, the Saints were so dominant it is difficult to glean much from their individual performances. I’ll do my best to hit the high points.

Mark Ingram destroyed the Cowboys defense. Of course, they were without two of their three starting linebackers and DeMarcus Ware was limping all over the field. I should also point out that Dallas has been gouged by opposing running backs all year. All of that said, Ingram looked great. He was quick, decisive, powerful, and ran with emotion. Ingram should be added in all leagues, but as we all know, New Orleans spreads the ball around to the point of annoyance. The biggest impact Ingram’s game is likely to have is a negative one on poor Pierre Thomas.

Marques Colston picked up the slack for a limited Jimmy Graham by posting the type of game we have been waiting seemingly forever for. As with Ingram/Thomas, it is nearly impossible to predict when or if this will happen again, but if you are a Colston owner this should give you reason to keep running him out there as a WR3 with WR1 upside.

Buy: Darren Sproles hasn’t been a big part of the Saints game plan for several weeks now. That appeared to change as he touched the ball more times than in any contest since Week 2. I don’t think it is a coincidence that the Saints found such great success after getting him more involved.

Sell: Any notion that Dallas won’t bounce back against the Giants in Week 12 following their bye.

Hold: Kenny Stills should be owned in all leagues, but only started if you feel the need to gamble. He doesn’t see enough targets to be reliable in any way, but there are worse upside plays out there. I would, for example, rather take a shot with Stills than play Anquan Boldin.

Pumpkin Head

It was a very close race with Riley Cooper and John Carlson both getting votes, but the very first Pumpkin Head is none other than Mark Ingram. Anytime a player can score nearly four times more points than his career average, he deserves some sort of award. I’m glad I could oblige.
