Week 15 FantasiesThe Christmas season always brings out our juiciest fantasies. But not all of these dreams involve Christmas gifts. This is the time of year when the games really heat up as our boys are fighting for their playoff hopes. Last week we chicks were dazzled by the unlikeliest of heroes. While Kordell Stewart has continued to rock our worlds with his uncharacteristically macho play, Tennessee backup Skip Hicks also entered our stud radar with a mesmerizing performance. So who is steaming up our fantasies this week? We’ll let you in on a few studs who are ready to light up the field. Fantasy Studs:
Curtis Martin: The Jets reliable running back did not exactly light the gridiron on fire last week against the Bengals. However we chicks are positive that Curtis is ready to deliver a primetime Christmas performance as he lets loose against the Colts. The Indy boys have always been fools for hot running backs – they have allowed an average of 131.5 rushing yards per game. Martin will prove much too tempting for the Colts to resist.
Stacey Mack: While the limp Freddie Taylor has been crying for a larger paycheck, it is Mack who has been doing all the work. Although his numbers have not been stellar this season, Mack is coming off a beefy 115-yard performance in the memorable Browns game. He is in store for quite a Christmas treat as he has the good fortune of partying with the Vikings. The Minnesota boys watched their playoff hopes go down the toilet as the courageous Lions finally won their first game. We are guessing that this deflating loss will bring out the worst in the inconsistent Vikings.
Eric Moulds: The speedy and virile Moulds has suffered from the lack of a stud quarterback. However, he should be able to beef up his wimpy stats with heavy dose of the Falcon floozies this weekend. Atlanta has the worst pass defense in the league, allowing over 250 passing yards per game.
Jerry Rice: This perennial stud still knows how to rock our worlds. After his numbers started to fizzle in San Fran, Jerry has found new life in Oakland hooking up with Gannon’s juicy cannon. Tim Brown may be the number one dude in Oakland, but there will be plenty of balls to go around as the Raiders rediscover their passing offense against the suspect Titan pass defense. Fantasy Duds:
Tom Brady: Brady has certainly breathed new life into the once dreary Patriots. However, even we biased New England girls are not delusional enough to believe that he can have his way with the prudish Miami defense. The last time Brady took on the Dolphins he could only muster 86 measly passing yards.
James Stewart: Last week Stewart’s hardy legs helped the Lions post their first victory of the season. However, the fun and games will come to a screeching halt when the Detroit boys step foot in Pittsburgh. The Men of Steel can be downright nasty to opposing running backs. They are only allowing 70 yards on the ground per game - that is over ten yards per game less than any other team. Sorry, James – you might as well stay home!
