PLAYER UPDATES Provided By SportsBuff.com
 Player: Keith Bulluck LB, Tennessee Titans 11/20/08, Time: 6:08 pm
 Status:
Probable
 News: Bulluck practiced in full on Thursday for the first time in close to three weeks after injuring his ribs.
 Analysis:

Bullock will be in the lineup against the Jets on Sunday and is a solid IDP option. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Fred Jackson RB, Buffalo Bills 11/18/08, Time: 4:29 pm
 News: Jackson carried the ball a season-high 12 times for 60 yards on Monday against Cleveland.
 Analysis:

The 60 yards was a season-best for Jackson but he did lose a fumble in the game. Jackson does not see enough touches to have much fantasy value expect as a flex based on the match up. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Lee Evans WR, Buffalo Bills 11/18/08, Time: 6:29 am
 Status:
Cold
 News: Evans failed to catch a pass on Monday in the Bills' loss to Cleveland.
 Analysis:

Evans was only targeted once all game by Trent Edwards. He has been quiet lately with only six receptions for 63 yards in his last three games. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Marshawn Lynch RB, Buffalo Bills 11/18/08, Time: 6:24 am
 News: Lynch rushed 23 times for 119 yards, and also had 10 receptions for 58 yards and a touchdown against Cleveland on Monday.
 Analysis:

This was Lynch's best game of the season as he topped 100 rushing yards for the first time and recorded his first receiving touchdown. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Trent Edwards QB, Buffalo Bills 11/18/08, Time: 6:21 am
 Status:
Cold
 News: Edwards was 16-of-26 for 148 yards and three interceptions in a 29-27 loss to the Browns'
 Analysis:

Despite the three interceptions, Edwards did throw for a touchdown and ran for one as well. Edwards has only three touchdown passes and seven interceptions in his last three games. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Donte Whitner DB, Buffalo Bills 11/15/08, Time: 1:00 pm
 Status:
Questionable
 News: Whitner took part in some limited practice this week and hopes to play on Monday night. He missed last week's game after separating his shoulder against the Patriots.
 Analysis:

He'll probably be a game-time decision, so we can't wait for the Monday night start to make the lineup call. Go for another defensive back in his place. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Kyle Vanden Bosch DE, Tennessee Titans 11/15/08, Time: 12:31 pm
 Status:
Questionable
 News: Vanden Bosch missed practice on Friday with the same injured groin that has been bugging him for a while. He's listed as questionable.
 Analysis:

Although he has started two of the past four games, Vanden Bosch has basically missed all four. He's not a safe play until he proves himself healthy through an entire game. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Kyle Vanden Bosch DE, Tennessee Titans 11/15/08, Time: 12:21 pm
 Status:
Doubtful
 News: Vanden Bosch did not practice this week due to an injured groin and is not expected to play Sunday against the Jaguars.
 Analysis:

Vanden Bosch started the season strong with three sacks in four games but has been unable to get back to 100 percent. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Marshawn Lynch RB, Buffalo Bills 11/11/08, Time: 10:52 am
 Status:
Cold
 News: Lynch carried 14 times for just 46 yards in Sunday's loss to the Patriots.
 Analysis:

Lynch has had trouble accumulating yardage all season. He has now scored in just two of the past six games, however. A first-round pick in many leagues, Lynch is only an average fantasy option at this point, though the Browns could provide a favorable matchup this week. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Trent Edwards QB, Buffalo Bills 11/11/08, Time: 10:49 am
 Status:
Cold
 News: Edwards threw for just 120 yards and one touchdown while tossing two picks against the Patriots on Sunday.
 Analysis:

After making it through the first six games with just two interceptions, Edwards has been picked five times in the past three weeks. This week's matchup with a Browns defense that just allowed Jay Cutler to throw for 447 yards looks attractive, but Cleveland is also capable of grabbing some interceptions. They picked Eli Manning three times, for instance, in the Giants' only loss of the season so far. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Justin Gage WR, Tennessee Titans 11/11/08, Time: 9:08 am
 News: Gage caught four balls for 47 yards and a touchdown at Chicago on Sunday.
 Analysis:

Take away the touchdown, and that's about what you can expect from Gage when he's healthy. And that's closer to the high end of his production. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Bo Scaife TE, Tennessee Titans 11/11/08, Time: 9:06 am
 Status:
Hot
 News: Scaife caught 10 passes for 78 yards and a touchdown on Sunday.
 Analysis:

He's not likely to match that number of receptions again this season. With 29 catches over his past five games, though, Scaife has become a reliable fantasy tight end. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Brandon Jones WR, Tennessee Titans 11/11/08, Time: 9:04 am
 Status:
Hot
 News: Jones caught eight passes for 82 yards in the Titans' win on Sunday. It was the third straight week in which he caught at least four balls.
 Analysis:

Those are the only three times this season, though, and Kerry Collins will not often attempt 41 throws in a game. Jones is an OK PPR option in a deep league, but he's not worth much attention in most formats. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Chris Johnson RB, Tennessee Titans 11/11/08, Time: 9:02 am
 News: Johnson tallied just 23 total yards against Chicago on Sunday, carrying 14 times and catching two passes.
 Analysis:

He's bound to have a rough game here and there. Week 11 brings a much more favorable matchup in the form of the Jaguars, though. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: LenDale White RB, Tennessee Titans 11/11/08, Time: 9:01 am
 Status:
Steady
 News: White picked up just 14 yards on 10 carries in Sunday's victory over the Bears, but he scored his 11th touchdown of the season.
 Analysis:

The yardage numbers are nearly irrelevant for White this season. His value lies in whether he reaches the end zone, and he has done so in all but two games this year. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Kerry Collins QB, Tennessee Titans 11/11/08, Time: 8:58 am
 News: With Chicago shutting down the Tennessee running game, it was Collins' turn to carry the offense in Sunday's victory. He threw for 289 yards and two touchdowns.
 Analysis:

Don't expect this outing to be a sign of things to come. It was Collins' first 200-yard performance of the season and the first time since Week 5 that he threw for any touchdowns in a game. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Keith Bulluck LB, Tennessee Titans 11/09/08, Time: 11:27 am
 News: LB Keith Bulluck is active today. He still makes for a risky start at best. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Kyle Vanden Bosch DE, Tennessee Titans 11/09/08, Time: 11:25 am
 News: DE Kyle Vanden Bosch is inactive today. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Kawika Mitchell LB, Buffalo Bills 11/09/08, Time: 8:50 am
 News: LB Kawika Mitchell was a limited practice participant this week because of an injured ankle, but he is expected to start. The ankle issue certainly makes him a less-than-safe choice, but there is scoring potential against a Pats offense whose running game should provide a decent number of tackle chances and whose pass offense remains vulnerable to sacks.
 Player: Kyle Vanden Bosch DE, Tennessee Titans 11/09/08, Time: 8:39 am
 News: DE Kyle Vanden Bosch will be a game-time decision today, as the team will have to see how his injured groin holds up in pregame workouts. Vanden Bosch has essentially missed the past three games. He was only inactive for one, but he left early in the first quarter of each of the other two. He's not a strong IDP option today and shouldn't be back in lineups until we have reason to believe that his groin is significantly healthier. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Keith Bulluck LB, Tennessee Titans 11/09/08, Time: 8:37 am
 News: OLB Keith Bulluck will be a game-time decision today in Chicago. He'll test out his injured ribcage to see if he can withstand the pain and play. For fantasy purposes, though, he should be on the bnech. Even if he feels well enough to start, one wrong move or shot to the ribs could end his day at any point. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Marshawn Lynch RB, Buffalo Bills 11/09/08, Time: 8:18 am
 News: The Bills could be without both starting guards today on offense, which doesn't help Marshawn Lynch at all. The Bills' back already had a decently tough matchup with the Patriots and is averaging just 3.5 yards per carry on the season. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Donte Whitner DB, Buffalo Bills 11/08/08, Time: 11:00 am
 Status:
Out
 News: Whitner is out indefinitely with the shoulder separation he suffered against the Jets last week. Bryan Scott will start in his place.
 Analysis:

Scott has put up decent numbers in fill-in duty and could be a deep sleeper option for IDPers. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Chris Johnson RB, Tennessee Titans 11/03/08, Time: 10:08 am
 Status:
Hot
 News: Johnson finished with his third-lowest per-carry average of the season Sunday, but he put up 89 rushing yards, 72 receiving yards and his team's only touchdown in the overtime victory.
 Analysis:

It was the third game in a row in which Johnson scored and the fourth in the past five weeks. He's a weekly fantasy starter. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Derek Fine TE, Buffalo Bills 11/02/08, Time: 9:41 pm
 News: Fine caught four passes for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss. For the season, that gives him ... four catches, 43 yards and a touchdown.
 Analysis:

Don't expect this to be the breakout game for a sudden fantasy factor. We'll see, though, if the rookie can show the team enough to get the starting nod in 2009 ahead of Robert Royal. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Robert Royal TE, Buffalo Bills 11/02/08, Time: 9:36 pm
 News: Royal led the team with five catches and 70 receiving yards in Sunday's loss to the Jets.
 Analysis:

With 24 catches through eight games, Royal is just one short of his career high for a season. He has become surprisingly useful as a fantasy tight end. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Marshawn Lynch RB, Buffalo Bills 11/02/08, Time: 9:33 pm
 News: Lynch finished with just 58 total yards in the loss to the Jets on Sunday. He carried only nine times and caught three passes, missing the second quarter after flu-like symptoms left him nauseous following a play on which he chased Abram Elam about 90 yards downfield.
 Analysis:

Lynch has been going for terrible yardage totals, so his fantasy value is nullified when he misses the end zone. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Trent Edwards QB, Buffalo Bills 11/02/08, Time: 9:24 pm
 News: Edwards went 24-of-35 in the loss to the Jets on Sunday, including a touchdown and two interceptions. It was his first multiple-interception game of the season, and one was returned for a touchdown by Jets safety Abram Elam.
 Analysis:

Edwards has been a model of efficiency for much of the season, but he has just one touchdown and three interceptions over the past two games. That doesn't bode well for his matchup next week with an intelligent, pressure-applying Patriots defense. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Aaron Schobel DE, Buffalo Bills 11/02/08, Time: 11:05 am
 News: DE Aaron Schobel is once again inactive this week with a foot injury. He has been limited even when in the lineup and shouldn't be anywhere near IDP lineups any time soon. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Kyle Vanden Bosch DE, Tennessee Titans 11/02/08, Time: 11:00 am
 News: As expected, DE Kyle Vanden Bosch is active and will start for the Titans today. His injured groin still makes him an iffy IDP proposition, though. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Terrence McGee DB, Buffalo Bills 11/02/08, Time: 10:40 am
 News: NFL Network reports that CB Terrence McGee will start today and, although he still isn't 100 percent following a knee injury, will not have to wear the knee brace he had last week. His weak performance against the Dolphins last week should bring plenty of balls his way today and give him the chance to offer a strong IDP performance. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Kyle Vanden Bosch DE, Tennessee Titans 11/02/08, Time: 9:49 am
 News: DE Kyle Vanden Bosch remains listed as questionable for today's game against Green Bay, but he was back in full practice this week after missing essentially two games with a groin injury. He did start against the Chiefs two weeks ago but lasted just three downs before coming out. He's an iffy IDP starter, particularly against a Packers offense that doesn't give up a ton of sacks. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Kyle Vanden Bosch DE, Tennessee Titans 10/31/08, Time: 1:51 pm
 Status:
Probable
 News: Vanden Bosch returned to full practice this week after essentially missing the past two games with a groin injury. It looks like he'll probably play on Sunday.
 Analysis:

The nearness of the groin issue and a less-than-favorable matchup with Green Bay leave the Titans right end as an unspectacular IDP option this week. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Josh Reed WR, Buffalo Bills 10/28/08, Time: 10:55 am
 News: Reed is sidelined indefinitely with injuries to his Achilles tendon and ankle.
 Analysis:

This will hurt Trent Edwards production as Reed has been one of Buffalo's most reliable third down threats. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Chris Hope DB, Tennessee Titans 10/28/08, Time: 9:52 am
 News: Hope grabbed both of the picks that Peyton Manning threw in Monday night's Titans victory.
 Analysis:

Hope doesn't make enough big plays to be all that worthwhile in IDP leagues. His tackle numbers are decent, but he ranks just 26th in the league among defensive backs in solo stops. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Justin Gage WR, Tennessee Titans 10/28/08, Time: 9:38 am
 Status:
Cold
 News: Gage caught just one pass for six yards in his return to the lineup from a knee injury.
 Analysis:

At best, starting any Tennessee receiver -- and Gage is the most promising of the group -- is a roll of the dice. More realistically, it's just a bad idea. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Bo Scaife TE, Tennessee Titans 10/28/08, Time: 9:36 am
 News: Scaife led the Titans with five catches for 44 yards in the Monday night win.
 Analysis:

Scaife has the most fantasy value among Tennessee's receiving options, but that's like being the best cricket player in Alabama. It doesn't say a whole lot for him, though he's an OK tight end choice. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Kerry Collins QB, Tennessee Titans 10/28/08, Time: 9:33 am
 News: Collins attempted a somewhat surprising 37 passes in the Monday night victory over the Colts, completing 24 for 193 yards.
 Analysis:

He's been pretty decent on the field this season, but Collins is no fantasy option. He has yet to reach 200 yards in a game and has tossed just three touchdown passes in seven outings. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Chris Johnson RB, Tennessee Titans 10/28/08, Time: 9:30 am
 News: Johnson took his 19 carries for 77 yards and a touchdown against Indy on Monday night. He added four catches for 19 more yards.
 Analysis:

Although fantasy owners can't really complain about the performance, it was somewhat unimpressive against a weak Colts run defense. Nevertheless, Johnson continues to be a strong fantasy play and has scored a decent amount despite losing goal-line carries to LenDale White. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: LenDale White RB, Tennessee Titans 10/28/08, Time: 9:27 am
 Status:
Hot
 News: White took his 10 carries for just 13 yards but scored two touchdowns against the Colts in the Monday night victory.
 Analysis:

White leads the league with 10 touchdowns, making him the top-scoring non-kicker in the NFL. Despite his low yardage totals, he's an every-week starter on a Tennessee offense that finds the end zone surprisingly often. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Trent Edwards QB, Buffalo Bills 10/27/08, Time: 10:31 am
 News: Trent struggled against the Dolphins D. He only completed 21 of his 35 passes for 227 yards, no TDs, and 1 INT.
 Analysis:

Rough day for Edwards owners. Edwards needs more carries out of Lynch to keep D's more honest so he can throw to Evans and the rest of Buffalo WRs. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Lee Evans WR, Buffalo Bills 10/27/08, Time: 10:27 am
 News: Lee Evans caught most of yardage that Trent Edwards threw for against the Dolphins. Evans caught 7 passes for 116 yards.
 Analysis:

Evans is one of the best wide receivers in the league and he shows it week after week. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Marshawn Lynch RB, Buffalo Bills 10/27/08, Time: 10:18 am
 News: Marshawn had a big day in PPR leagues. He ran for 61 yards and a touchdown while catching 5 passes for 34 yards.
 Analysis:

Good news for Lynch owners as the Bills struggled and were upset by the Phins, Lynch was still able to have a very nice game. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Kyle Vanden Bosch DE, Tennessee Titans 10/26/08, Time: 12:30 pm
 News: DE Kyle Vanden Bosch returned to practice Saturday and hopes to play Monday night. He started last week, though, and was only able to make it through three plays before coming out. He is not a safe IDP option this week. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Lee Evans WR, Buffalo Bills 10/26/08, Time: 8:16 am
 News: The Dolphins have allowed 23 pass plays of 20 or more yards this season, second most in the league. That bodes well for Buffalo's biggest big-play threat, WR Lee Evans, in Week 8. (SportsBuff.com)
 Player: Justin Gage WR, Tennessee Titans 10/25/08, Time: 8:53 pm
 Status:
Questionable
 News: The injured knee that kept Gage out of the past two games still has him listed as questionable for Monday night. He was back in full practice this week, though, and is expected to return to the lineup.
 Analysis:

Gage grabbed five passes for 92 yards in his last outing and is an OK option against the Colts this week. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Aaron Schobel DE, Buffalo Bills 10/25/08, Time: 7:51 pm
 Status:
Out
 News: Schobel will miss his second straight game this weekend because of the injured left foot that has limited him for a while.
 Analysis:

Don't start him again until he proves worthy. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Lee Evans WR, Buffalo Bills 10/19/08, Time: 8:11 pm
 News: Evans caught eight passes for 89 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's victory over the Chargers.
 Analysis:

Evans is always a big-play threat. If he could begin to consistently catch more passes, his value could significantly improve in a hurry. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Marshawn Lynch RB, Buffalo Bills 10/19/08, Time: 8:09 pm
 Status:
Steady
 News: Lynch ran for 70 yards and a touchdown in the victory over the Chargers on Sunday.
 Analysis:

This is Lynch in 2008: unspectacular yardage and a touchdown. As long as you don't set your expectations too high, you shouldn't be disappointed. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Trent Edwards QB, Buffalo Bills 10/19/08, Time: 8:06 pm
 Status:
Steady
 News: Edwards enjoyed another efficient performance in beating the Chargers on Sunday. He completed 25 of 30 passes for 261 yards and a touchdown and didn't turn the ball over at all.
 Analysis:

Edwards' performance was particularly encouraging considering that he was returning from a concussion and reportedly said he's still suffering from some symptoms. He's like David Garrard last year, trustworthy without a ton of big-play potential. (SportsBuff.com)
