As usual Head Coach Mike Tomlin was glib when asked about his playing time.<\/p>\n<p>Giants QB Eli Manning is out. His backup Jim Sorgi is now also out. Rhett Bomar may get the start. Also not playing for the G-men is G Chris Snee, and Rich Seubert, WR Ramses Barden, and S Michael Johnson.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Top expert pick on this game<\/strong>: On a 6-1 run with Wise Guy plays on all sports <a href=\"http:\/\/www.offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?Page=Packages\">It\u2019s among three Wise Guys and seven winners<\/a> from GodsTips.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ravens vs. Redskins<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fat DL Albert Haynesworth will play, but not with the other starters. Larry Johnson will get the feature role in a crowded backfield for the Skins.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Raiders vs. Bears<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As bad as Chicago\u2019s starting QB Jay Cutler is, it gets worse behind him. Potential backup Todd Collins rejected a contract offer, Caleb Harris is out and rookie Dan LeFevour not ready for significant role. Is he a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joeduffy.net\/blog\/2010\/08\/fantasy-football-rankings-2010\/\">fantasy football sleeper<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>Both teams may be forced to use new QBs because of injuries. Colt Brennan for Oakland and Matt Gutierrez for Chicago may be forced into action. LeFevour will certainly get more time than originally planned.<\/p>\n<p>Oakland will be without their top two backups at QB Charlie Frye and Bruce Gradkowski. This means journeyman Kyle Boller takes over for starter Jason Campbell. They will play behind a rebuilt offensive line.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dolphins vs. Jaguars<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dolphins OG Nate Garner is out. He started eight games last year and was projected to be the backup at RT. However they signed OG Randy Thomas who started two games for the Redskins before torn right triceps ended his season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lions vs. Broncos<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Detroit will be without LB Jordan Dizon for the season. Versatile and projected as a key backup, he started the first preseason game. He was a top notch special teams player.<\/p>\n<p>Denver is without probable starting RB Knowshown Moreno.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cowboys vs. Chargers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dallas starting RT Marc Colombo is out. Alex Barron is also out meaning youngsters Robert Brewster and Sam Young are the fill-ins. Now LG Kyle Kosier is questionable.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas top pick WR Dez Bryant is out.\u00a0 The starters will play the first half. In the first two games QB Tony Romo played only three series.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jets vs. Panthers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Though Carolina WR Steve Smith is back practicing, he won\u2019t play. Also out for the Panthers WR Trent Guy, RB Jonathan Stewart, OT Jeff Otah, DE Tyler Brayton, LBs Thomas Davis, Jamar Williams and Quinton Culberson. Also not in uniform will be SS Sherrod Smith and Aaron Francisco.<\/p>\n<p>RB D\u2019Angelo Williams will see some playing time. Carolina\u2019s only returning starter on the DL Tyler Brown is out. FS Sherrod Martin is very doubtful.<\/p>\n<p>Jets star cover man Darrelle Revis is still a holdout. Carolina\u2019s starters will play the first half. QB Jimmy Clausen will likely start the second half.<\/p>\n<p>Top expert pick on this game: Stevie Vincent has hit 11 straight Level 5 plays. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?Page=Packages\">This game is his only L5 for NFLX<\/a> but he has three more in pro baseball.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Texans vs. Saints<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Houston\u2019s starters will play at least 1 \u00bd quarters and possibly the entire first half. RBs Arian Foster and Steve Slaton will take all the snaps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Texas Rangers baseball, Live streaming TV of the English Premier League, and when will Jimmy Clausen play are among the highlights of Saturday sports action.
