Pulling in a couple of fantasy thoughts from the Twitterverse: Sebastian Janikowski just nailed a 59-yard field goal. A very nice five fantasy points for that one. Janikowski with another field goal, this one from 45 yards. He’s closing in on 20 fantasy points. For those of you asking, Knowshon Moreno still hasn’t played a down in the second half. He’d be such a stud if he could stay healthy. 4 TD passes for Josh Freeman. Two have gone to Kellen Winslow. I guess Ray Lewis was right about Peyton Hillis — he rushed for just 35 yards today. Clearly, the huge workload has affected him. RT @AdrianPeterson @Jdub300C: how’s the knee, going to win my fantasy league for Me?” [...]
