Smooth Moves by OneCoolTuna
- The Arizona Cardinals Defense had the highest score of any DEF in the league this season with 33.00 points.
- Tim Hightower felt like the Rodney Dangerfield of football: "no respect at all" with this week's projected points. He scored the sixth-most points in the league and beat his projected point total by 113.8%, the seventh-highest percentage in the league.
- Took Richard Rodgers out of the starting lineup, who scored 1.20 points on the bench, fewer than the starting TE.
- What do Apache helicopters, F-117 Nighthawks and DeAndre Hopkins have in common? They are all dangerous aerial weapons. He ranked sixth in the league in scoring among WRs this week with 24.70 points.
- Do you put a LB or DB on him? You might have to put both on him if this continues. Delanie Walker scored 14.90 points to rank fourth among TEs in the league this week.
