If you own Matt Ryan (344 passing yards and four TDs) or Jameis Winston (261 passing yards and three TDs), then youre off to a great start in Week 9.So lets keep it going!Injuries heading into Week 9:QB Ben Roethlisberger -- kneeRB Carlos Hyde?-- AC jointRB Spencer Ware -- concussionRB DeMarco Murray -- toeRB Theo Riddick -- ankleWR Randall Cobb -- hamstringWR Amari Cooper -- backWR Steve Smith Sr. -- ankleWR Travis Benjamin -- kneeWR Jeremy Maclin -- groinTE Hunter Henry -- kneeTE Delanie Walker -- groinOther news and notes:WR/RB Ty Montgomery -- will be the lead back for the Packers on SundayRB Frank Gore -- expected to get more touches for the ColtsRB Tim Hightower -- will get touches against the 49ersRB Dion Lewis -- expected back in Week 10RB C.J. Prosise -- will get increased touches against the BillsWR Corey Coleman -- expected back this week for the BrownsTE Dwayne Allen -- expected back for the Colts SundaySix teams have bye weeks: the Bears, Bengals, Patriots, Cardinals, Texans and Washington, which means slim pickings come Sunday ... yet again. (Thank-you, Roger Goodell.)LocksQB Dak Prescott @ ClevelandPrescott passed for over 280 yards and had three total touchdowns last week against a good Eagles defense. This week, he faces a Browns defense that has allowed 2,308 passing yards and 19 touchdowns in eight games. Oh my! Cleveland has given up the third-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, which makes Prescott a QB1 this week.(Other: Marcus Mariota @ San Diego)WR Terrelle Pryor Sr. vs. DallasPryor has been a target monster this season, with 25 more targets than any other player on the Browns. Cleveland will more than likely be playing from behind on Sunday against Dallas, which could result is a hefty aerial attack. That would benefit Pryors numbers.(Others: Jarvis Landry vs. New York Jets;?Brandin Cooks @ San Francisco;?Golden Tate @ Minnesota)RB Melvin Gordon vs. TennesseeGordon is fourth among backs in fantasy points per game this season and looked great against a tough Broncos defense last week. Hes putting up numbers rushing and receiving, which gives him even more value in PPR leagues. He does have a tough matchup against a Titans defense that ranks fifth in rushing yards allowed this season, but Gordon is still a must-start in leagues.(Others: Matt Forte @ Miami;?DeVontae Booker @ Oakland)TE Antonio Gates vs. TennesseeThe Chargers are dealing with a lot of injuries heading into Week 9, which could be good for Gates owners, considering he should be Philip Rivers main target on Sunday. The Titans have surrendered the eighth-most fantasy points and fourth-most yards (70 yards per game) to tight ends this season.(Other: Kyle Rudolph vs. Detroit)FlopsQB Blake Bortles @ Kansas CityBortles is just downright horrible this season, and it doesnt look like things will get any easier for him in Week 9. The Jags head to Arrowhead to face a Chiefs defense that loves interceptions more than most. Even though Bortles is a great garbage-time gunslinger, I still say bench him against Kansas City, which is ranked 14th in passing defense. #BenchBlakeWR Jeremy Maclin vs. JacksonvilleMaclin is dealing with a groin injury, doesnt have his usual starting quarterback (Alex Smith) and is expected to be shadowed by Jalen Ramsey on Sunday. Thanks, but no thanks.RB Rashad Jennings vs. PhiladelphiaJennings is the lead back for the Giants, but they are expected to mix it up a bit moving forward. He hasnt rushed for over 49 yards in any of his last three games, so anticipate seeing the G-Men work in Paul Perkins, Bobby Rainey and Orleans Darkwa against the Eagles on Sunday. Philadelphia has given up the 14th-fewest fantasy points to running backs this season.TE Jack Doyle @ Green BayDwayne Allen is expected back this week for the Colts, which means Doyles target share will take a hit. Green Bay has allowed the 12th-most fantasy points per game and ranks 25th in yards allowed per game to tight ends. Doyle becomes a TE2 due to Allens return. Bummer!SleepersQB Colin Kaepernick vs. New OrleansKaepernick has a favorable matchup against the Saints this week. He has only completed 46 percent of his passes in two games but has rushed for 150 yards as well, which makes him a QB1 in Week 9. Keep in mind Andy Dalton, Carson Palmer, Tom Brady and Kirk Cousins are on a golf course sipping Transfusions. Kaepernick is a nice next man up. New Orleans has given up the 12th-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season.(Honorable mention: Nick Foles vs. Jacksonville)WR Ty Montgomery vs. IndianapolisMontgomery didnt play last week due to symptoms from a sickle cell trait. This week, he is listed as the Packers lead back against an Indianapolis defense that is ranked 21st against the run. And thanks to the ESPN Fantasy suits, you can play Montgomery as a running back as well. Love me some Ty this week!(Honorable mentions: Cole Beasley @ Cleveland;?Sterling Shepard vs. Philadelphia;?Donte Moncrief @ Green Bay;?Kenny Britt vs. Carolina)RB Charcandrick West vs. JacksonvilleWest should be the most coveted waiver-wire pickup this week. Spencer Ware is out due to a concussion, and West is next man up. Kansas City takes on a Jacksonville defense that allowed the Titans to run all day on them in Week 8. The Jags are allowing over 124 rushing yards a game and are ranked 27th in the league against ball carriers.(Honorable mentions: Jay Ajayi vs. New York Jets;?DuJuan Harris vs. New Orleans; Tim Hightower @ San Francisco)TE Dennis Pitta vs. PittsburghPitta is a target monster. The only problem is that he is not targeted much in the red zone. Pitta averages a little over seven targets per game, and Pittsburgh allows a little over seven fantasy points per game. The Steelers have given up the 10th-most fantasy points to tight ends this season.(Honorable mention: Eric Ebron @ Minnesota)Joe Thomas Browns Jersey .
