Hoping I suggest no turkeys this week. Hoping that’s the last bad pun I try, too.

SMART STARTS
– Willie Parker, RB, Steelers. He’s a must-start anyway, but look for Parker to rebound from his one-week aberration and top 100 yards again. A touchdown would be nice, too.

– Matt Hasselbeck, QB, Seahawks. Another must-start, Hasselbeck has delivered for a Seattle offense without a running game. He’ll turn in another big game against the Rams

– Derek Anderson, QB, Browns. It should be another points-aplenty game for Cleveland against the Texans, and Anderson will continue his surprising season with a 300-yard, three-TD game. Doesn’t look like Brady Quinn will be seeing the field anytime soon.

YAWN!
– Philip Rivers, QB, Chargers. Despite two interceptions and San Diego losing, Rivers put up OK fantasy numbers last week, and I see him doing the same, if not improving, at home against the struggling Ravens.

– Dwayne Bowe, WR, Chiefs. Kansas City’s running game took a hit when Priest Holmes retired, again. With only a passing game to rely on, Bowe might turn in another good day in his solid rookie season.

– David Garrard, QB, Jaguars. In his first game back, Garrard was solid and threw two touchdowns against the Chargers. If he continues to stay healthy and throw TDs, he might find himself as a low-end fantasy QB1 by the end of the season.

MAYBE NOT
– Falcons defense. Atlanta placed its two starting defensive tackles on injured reserve this week. And the Colts offense is bound to revert to form sometime, likely Thursday night at the Georgia Dome.

– Rex Grossman, QB, Bears. Hate to say it, but Grossman’s adequate return to starter will implode against the Broncos’ defense. I’m very curious who will start at quarterback for the Bears next year.

– J.P. Losman, QB, Bills. No resurgence here, either, particularly on the road against the Jaguars.
