• Aaron Stecker's back on the hot list after a 100-yard game and Reggie Bush's knee injury. The Saints backup might find some room to run against the Cardinals. He wouldn't be a bad No. 3/flex back. FOUR STARS (Out of five)
• Jabar Gaffney's hot streak (TD in three straight games) is getting to be too much to ignore. You figure the Patriots will try to decimate the Jets this week, too, which works in Gaffney's favor. FOUR STARS
• Anthony Gonzalez has two 100-yard games in his past three and scored twice last Sunday. He's clearly benefitted from Marvin Harrison's absence, and that should continue again this week, although the Raiders' pass D isn't as much of a pushover as you might think. THREE STARS
• Jerheme Urban had one of those classic "Huh?" games last week (six catches, 123 yards, TD) when everybody was expecting Bryant Johnson to step up with starter Anquan Boldin out. Any chance of an encore? Sure, if Boldin's still out ... he is going against the Saints, after all. THREE STARS
• Like a moth to a flame, I keep getting drawn back to LaMont Jordan. I've been burned before, so the only way I'm touching him this week is if starter Justin Fargas (ribs) really can't go against the Colts. It'll probably be painful though. Be careful. TWO STARS
• Samkon Gado is an old fantasy friend of mine, so normally I'd have no problem recommending him, especially coming off last week's showing (93 total yards, two TDs) for the Texans. Only problem is Sammy now faces the Ravens, who may be falling apart but still know how to stop the run. TWO STARS
