Monday Night Game Fantasy Predictions

Eagles at Redskins -- (28-38)


QB - Robert Griffin III -- In his return from injury RG3 should have a big day against the Eagles and show he can pass from the pocket.  He might get loose a little too and get some scramble yards.  260 yards, 3 TDs, 2 int, 35 rush yards, 1 rush TD
         Michael Vick -- His first game in Chip Kelly's offense will take some adjusting but I think we see Vick make some nice plays downfield and some mistakes too.  225 yards, 2 TDs, 1 int, 40 rush yards, 0 rush TD, 1 fumble

RB - Alfred Morris -- Morris should have a big game in this Monday night showdown and get a good amount of carries in a week where only 1 running back had over 100 yards rushing.  21 rushes, 90 rush yards, 1 touchdown, 3 catches, 25 receiving yards
         Lesean Mccoy -- Shady Mccoy is one of the top fantasy backs and he should get a good amount of yards in this one as the focal point of the offense.  19 rushes, 105 rush yards, 2 touchdowns,  5 catches, 44 yards

WR - Desean Jackson -- I expect Jackson to have a big game as Vick's main receiving weapon he will see a lot of targets and get in the end zone a couple of times.  8 catches, 91 receiving yards, 2 TDs, 1 rush, 19 yards
         Pierre Garcon -- Garcon will also see a lot of targets and get decent yardage with a score on a long TD.  6 catches, 76 receiving yards, 1 TD

TE - Fred Davis -- I think Davis will have a solid game getting yards after the catch and getting one score.  6 catches, 63 yards, 1 TD
        Brent Celek -- Celek won't score but he will gain a decent amount of yards on seam routes up the middle.  Vick likes Celek as a target but I don't know if he will be that involved in Kelly's new offense.  4 catches, 46 yards

Texans at Chargers -- (24-14)


QB - Matt Schaub -- He plays a very beatable defense in the Chargers but I have a feeling the Texans lean on Foster and Tate this game.  Schaub will have a decent game with no turnovers.  245 receiving yards, 1 TD, 0 int, 11 rush yards
         Phillip Rivers -- I think Rivers could surprise here and get a lot of throws in.  He doesn't have the best weapons but he still has his TE Gates.  290 yards, 2 TDs, 1 int

RB - Arian Foster -- Who knows exactly what his workload will be but he should score and break off some big runs.  Tate is expected to split carries with him too. 17 carries, 82 yards, 1 TD, 3 catches, 30 yards
         Ryan Matthews -- This is not a good matchup for Matthews but I think this is his breakout year finally.  The Texans will keep him out of the end zone though but Matthews will get his carries still.  19 carries, 68 rush yards,  0 TDs, 4 catches, 18 yards

WR - Malcom Floyd -- He is River's best WR target but who knows if he is up to being the number one guy on a team.  Last year he had only 5 TDs and 800 yards but he is a good deep threat.  5 catches, 71 yards, 0 TDs
          Andre Johnson -- Once he was the league's best or second best WR but now he is on a running team and he is getting older.  Johnson still has the ability to put up pro bowl numbers and huge games but he struggled to find the end zone last year.  9 catches, 103 receiving yards, 0 TDs

TE - Antonio Gates -- Like Andre Johnson, Gates was once the best TE in the NFL which is now Gronk or Graham.  Gates still has his QB Rivers and has excellent hands.  I think Gates has a big game here.  8 catches, 88 yards, 1 TD
        Owen Daniels -- Daniels has been a successful fantasy TE and has good chemistry with Schaub.  Again they are a running team but Daniels is a lock for decent yardage.  5 catches, 51 yards, 0 TD
