Fantasy Football: Week 2 Matchups To Exploit

Ryan Grant, Brandon Jackson vs. Detroit Lions
Detroit was dominated at the line of scrimmage last week against Atlanta, allowing a whopping 318 yards on the ground.  The Packers will use both running backs, since they want to be careful with Grant's slight hamstring ailment.  If you have Jackson, consider using him this week. 

Peyton Manning, Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harrison vs. Minnesota Vikings
The Vikings defense is well known for stopping the run, but soft against the pass.  Expect the Colts to quickly regain the rhythm in their passing game with an aerial attack this week.

Eli Manning, Plaxico Burress vs. St. Louis Rams
The Rams were seriously exposed as a team with big problems last week, especially against the pass.  You can be sure the defending champs watched the film on how to get the ball to Burress often.  Look for him to repeat his excellent week one performance with another 10 catches and 100+ yards.

Earnest Graham vs. Atlanta Falcons
In Graham's two starts against Atlanta last season, he rushed for 181 yards and two TDs.  Detroit had to abandon the run early in their loss to Atlanta last week, but the Bucs will pound the ball on the ground all game.
