Sit 'Em
QUARTERBACK
JON KITNA
Lions ATChargers
The Lions areprime candidates for a letdown after seeing the Cowboys come back on them athome last week--a loss that dimmed Detroit's playoff hopes. What a bad time forKitna to take on San Diego, which has allowed just two TD passes (andintercepted five throws) in its last 13 quarters.
DAVID GARRARD
Jaguars ATSteelers
He'll be playingin just his second career cold-weather game, and he'll certainly receive achilly reception from the Pittsburgh defense, which allows an average of 172.8passing yards and 1.2 passing TDs a game.
RUNNING BACK
FRED TAYLOR
Jaguars ATSteelers
Don't count onTaylor (or Maurice Jones-Drew) to become the second back to rush for more than88 yards against Pittsburgh.
BRANDON JACOBS
Giants VS.Redskins
It's not good thatReuben Droughns stole three goal line carries last week from Jacobs, theonetime short-yardage specialist.
ADRIANPETERSON
Bears ATVikings
Cedric Benson'ssub has looked a lot like . . . Cedric Benson, averaging just2.6 yards a carry as a starter.
TIGHT END
JEREMY SHOCKEY
Giants VS.Redskins
Shockey's stats inhis last three games are not at all charming--seven total catches for 73 yards.His last three tries against the Skins were similarly disappointing, yieldingeight catches for 110 yards. What's worse is that he didn't have a TD in any ofthose games.
WIDE RECEIVER
TORRY HOLT
Rams VS.Packers
Holt managed 90yards with Brock Berlin at QB--but the foe was the Bengals. He'll be lucky toreach half that total against the Pack's tough pass defense.
STEVE SMITH
Panthers VS.Seahawks
Since JakeDelhomme went out in Week 3, 65 players have more touchdown receptions, 44have more receiving yards and 24 have more catches than Smith.
KEVIN CURTIS
Eagles ATCowboys
Only Drew Breesand Jeff Garcia throw to their backs more often than Donovan McNabb, and thatmakes it hard for Philly wideouts to contribute consistently.
KICKER
ADAM VINATIERI
Colts ATRaiders
After shanking apotential game-winner against San Diego in Week 10, Vinatieri has onlyattempted five field goals in four games--and missed two of them.
DEFENSE / SPECIALTEAMS
STEELERS VS.Jaguars
Jacksonville has amere 17 turnovers--and six were committed by backup QB Quinn Gray, who startedthree games but has been safely on the bench for the last four weeks.
