Over 700 Yards Passing In Total

Tough pill to swallow for Brees

 A spectacular night for some fantasy owners.Brees had over 400 yards passing and 3 TDs with out a int. The Thursday's night game was more a rack meet than a football game. When it looked as if the game was out of reach for the Saints, some one would make a play.Wide receiver Devery Henderson was the leading receiver for the saints with 6 catches a 100 yards receiving and 1 touchdown. Robert Meachen and tightend Jimmy Graham each scored a touchdown. On special teams new comer Darren Sproles returned a kickoff  104 yards for a score to keep the saints in the game. Sproles at this point looks to be a excellent pick up for fantasy owners, but like Reggie Bush he won't get a lot of opportunities on the field. If put in as a slot receiver with his kick and punt return ability, it may be all the opportunity he needs to score big fantasy numbers. You probably won't see him used in short yardage situations or in the red zone territory, but with his explosiveness Sproles won't need to be near the red zone to score.   

Rogers had a dominanting first quarter throwing for 3 touchdowns. Only the second time ever in NFL history that a quarterback has thrown for 3 touchdowns in the first quarter. He finished the night with 312 yards passing and 3 touchdowns with out a int. Number one receiver Jennings was the leading receiver for the Packers with 7 reciptions 89 yards receiving and 1 touchdown. Donald Driver came witin one yard of breaking the Packers all time leading receiver in yards. He finished the game with 4 receptions and 41 yards with out a touchdown. Jordy Nelson started off right where he left off in the Superbowl last year. He Dominated the saints secondary and exposed there corners. At 6-3 217 pounds Nelson is a big target for Rogers, and has a effective burst of speed off the line of scrimmage. Big targets are great weapons in the redzone so look for Nelson to have a big year in receptions and touchdown catches.    



Everyone anticipates tightend Jemichael Finley will have a big year this season if he can stay healthy. Finely was drafted by the Packers with the 28th pick in the 3rd round coming out of Texas in the 2008 draft. He started off strong in 2010 cathing 21 balls for 301 yards with 1 touchdown in five games, but suffer a knee

Best receiver in football?

injury that plagued him all season long. Than came the postseason and Finely came alive giving the Packers a needed boust adding a demension   the Packers were lacking, a big target in the redzone. At 6-5 250 pounds Finely is a big target for Rogers and a excellent fantasy pick at the tightend spot.            

Randel Cobb was a surprise to some, but not to the fans that seen him in the preseason.Drafted out of Kentucy with the 32 pick in the 2nd round.At 5-10 192 pounds and 4.3 time in the 40 yard dash he was just another weapon for Aron Rogers. Cobb took a basic slant route(defense playing a man under scheme)         



Randal Cobb returns one for a touchdown

  for a 32 yard touchdown. After the Saints came a little closer to the lead after a touchdown. Cobb put together a highlight reel and took the next kickoff 108 yards for a touchdown. Cobb could be a spectacular pickup in some fantasy leages. The rookie from Kentucy will be a situational weapon for the Packers this season. Not unlike a Derren Sproles or a Reggie Bush. Theses situatioal players have become valuable in the highpower offense in the NFL. Some one who can take a short pass and turn it into a long gain.
