There were some terrific outings this week and there were some seriously Sub-par ones.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy Dave B`s Week 6 version of Studs and Duds.<\/p>\n<h3>Stud of the Week:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ahmad Bradshaw \u2013 NY Giants \u2013<\/strong> Bradshaw was absolutely enormous on Sunday and is a worthy Stud of the Week. Against Buffalo Bradshaw\u2019s 130 combined yards and three touchdowns were enough to guide his team to a much needed win.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other Studs:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>QBs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Aaron Rodgers \u2013 Green Bay Packers \u2013<\/strong> Rodgers did most of his damage in the first half of his game and then like a true Stud, he put it in neutral and coasted to 310 yards passing and another three touchdowns. Rodgers is absolutely incredible and is as big a Stud as there is in the NFL.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Freeman \u2013 Tampa Bay Buccaneers \u2013<\/strong> Freeman has been bad so far this season but when it mattered most, he Studded up and threw for 303 yards, two scores and ZERO interceptions in an impressive win over New Orleans.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Michael Vick \u2013 Philadelphia Eagles \u2013<\/strong> Vick took some heavy shots on Sunday but hung in there and guided his team to one of the most important victories for any team this season. Vick threw for 237 yards and a touchdown while adding 54 yards on the ground on 7 carries. Vick finally looked like a Stud in Week 6!<\/p>\n<p><strong>RBs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Michael Turner \u2013 Atlanta Falcons \u2013<\/strong> Turner was an absolute beast in Week 6. He rumbled for 139 yards and two touchdowns to help Atlanta beat a pesky Carolina team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rashard Mendenhall \u2013 Pittsburgh Steelers \u2013<\/strong> Where has this Rashard been all season? On Sunday, Mendenhall returned from injury and posted 146 yards rushing and a touchdown in a truly Stud performance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Frank Gore \u2013 San Francisco 49ers \u2013<\/strong> Gore was THE reason that the upstart 49ers beat the previously unbeaten Lions in Detroit. He ran for 141 yards and a touchdown for his 3rd straight 100+ yard performance -Stud!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fred Jackson \u2013 Buffalo Bills \u2013<\/strong> What else is new? Jackson had 168 yards combined and a touchdown in Week 6. He is a Stud\u2019s Stud!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Honourable Mention:<\/strong> LeSean McCoy, Ray Rice<\/p>\n<p><strong>WRs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Marques Colston \u2013 New Orleans Saints \u2013<\/strong> Welcome back to the Stud Column Mr. Colston \u2013 it\u2019s been too long! On Sunday, Colston caught 7 passes for 118 yards and a score to become one of very few WR Studs in Week 6.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jimmy Graham \u2013 New Orleans Saints \u2013<\/strong> There is no Hotter Tight End in the game \u2013 Graham keeps getting it done. It\u2019s time to recognize Graham as a Weekly Stud! On Sunday he had 7 grabs for 124 yards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anquan Boldin \u2013 Baltimore Ravens \u2013<\/strong> Boldin hasn\u2019t been all that impressive so far this season but on Sunday his effort was good enough for the Stud List. He had 8 catches for 132 yards in a win over Houston.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Honourable Mention:<\/strong> Jeremy Maclin<\/p>\n<h3>Dud of the Week:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Rex Grossman \u2013 Washington Redskins \u2013<\/strong> Grossman was brutal on Sunday and his play may have taken all of the air out of the Redskins sails. He went 9 of 22 for 149 yards, ZERO touchdowns and four interceptions against a very vulnerable Philadelphia defense. Grossman was yanked after 3 quarters and was an easy choice for Dud of the Week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adrian Peterson \u2013 Minnesota Vikings \u2013<\/strong> I know it wasn\u2019t all your fault but there is absolutely no denying that on Sunday night, you were a Dud! 12 carries, 39 yards and a score wasn\u2019t good enough my friend!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other Duds:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>QBs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Ryan \u2013 Atlanta Falcons \u2013<\/strong> The Falcons won their game in Week 6 but it was no thanks to Mr. Ryan. In what was supposed to be a QB shootout, Ryan only managed 163 yards passing and one touchdown \u2013 Dud!  [ad-8469823]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ben Roethlisberger \u2013 Pittsburgh Steelers \u2013<\/strong> After last week`s 5 touchdown passes a lot was expected from Big Ben this week. 200 yards passing and only one touchdown unfortunately has the Big Guy on the Dud list this week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eli Manning \u2013 New York Giants \u2013<\/strong> Manning passed for OK yardage (292) but failed to throw a single touchdown on Sunday. A goose egg is an automatic Dud!<\/p>\n<p><strong>RBs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ryan Torain \u2013 Washington Redskins \u2013<\/strong> Ick! Nothing went right for Washington. Torain actually led the Skins in touches and yards rushing on Sunday \u2013 10 carries for a whopping 22 yards \u2013 complete Dud!<\/p>\n<p><strong>DeAngelo Williams \u2013 Carolina Panthers \u2013<\/strong> Williams is getting into Fantasy Bust territory. He was a Dud again in Week 6 rushing for just 22 yards on 12 carries. Jonathan Stewart is by far the more productive back in Carolina for sure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WRs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Roddy White \u2013 Atlanta Falcons \u2013<\/strong> White was supposed to be the huge beneficiary of Julio Jones` injury but delivered a Dud performance instead of stepping up. He caught just two passes for 21 yards on Sunday and nearly became Dud of the Week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Victor Cruz \u2013 New York Giants \u2013<\/strong> A lot of people started Cruz this week after his incredible three week run. How did he reward his owners? 2 catches for 12 yards \u2013 BRUTAL!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vernon Davis \u2013 San Francisco 49ers \u2013<\/strong> 2 catches for 5 yards has Davis a worthy addition to the Dud list this week.  <\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"\/internet-sportsbooks\/\">WAGER AT OUR BEST FOOTBALL BETTING SPORTSBOOKS FOR ALL THE NFL SEASON GAMES \u2013 REVIEWS OF ALL 2011 SPORTSBOOKS TAKING CREDIT CARD DEPOSITS (click here)<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A quick look back at week 6 fantasy football STUDS and Duds\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":24327,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[299,2349,66494,1540,1538,2348,1539,18370,1537,1536,2346,1535,2347,2657,18767],"class_list":["post-44652","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fantasy-football","tag-cheatsheets","tag-fantasy-duds","tag-fantasy-football","tag-fantasy-football-news","tag-fantasy-stats","tag-fantasy-studs","tag-player-point-totals","tag-player-statistics","tag-projections","tag-start-bench-list","tag-studs-duds","tag-studs-and-duds","tag-studsduds","tag-week-6","tag-week-6-fantasy-stats"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44652","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44652"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44652\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":44656,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44652\/revisions\/44656"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24327"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44652"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44652"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44652"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
