Justin K. AllerBrown only scored once this season and his season starts come to a nice round numbers of 40 receptions and 480 yards.
Fantasy Impact: Brown ranked four in yardage, tied for third in targets and tied for second in receptions. The Central Michigan product has yet to clear 100 yards in any game and his targets have dropped. He was averaging 10 targets per game over the first five games, but it has dropped to just eight in the last three.

Justin K. AllerWallace has four TDs on the season and pushed his season totals to 37 receptions and 459 yards.
Fantasy Impact: This is more of an anti-60-Minutes line with his longest reception going only for 14 yards. The Skins played a lot of deep coverages which allowed Ben and Co. to move the ball down the field in an efficient manner. Wallace is no longer just a three-route receiver.
Read Article >Ben Roethlisberger very efficient in win

Joe SargentBig Ben came into the Week 8 matchup with 1,765 yards passing to go with 11 TDs and only three picks. Ben also sports a fairly impressive 66 completion percentage.
Fantasy owners should view him as a near every-week starter, but beware of the nasty weather that can be a factor in the AFC North.

Joe SargentHe season passing stats now coming to 1,778 yards with eight TDs and three interceptions. He now had 476 yards on the ground, as well.
Fantasy Impact: Well, Dick Lebeau’s defense is now 15-1 against rookie QBs and it’s easy to see why. Pittsburgh brought pressure from the inside through the A and B gaps and also off the edge to keep RG3 contained and limited to staying in the pocket.

Andy LyonsBig Ben lighting up Redskins in Week 8
Big Ben picked up in the second half with another touchdown drive on the Steelers opening possession. The veteran quarterback dumped it over the top to fullback Will Johnson for a one-yard touchdown pass, his third of the day. He found tight ends Leonard Pope and Heath Miller for two more short touchdown passes in the first half -- that “dink-and-dunk” style that was in the crosshairs last week.

Brad Mills-US PRESSWIREMendenhall, Redman inactive; Dwyer to start

Andy LyonsWhile Mendenhall had been ruled out earlier in the week, Redman was considered a game-time decision. He was able to practice throughout the week, but only on a limited basis.
Fantasy Impact: After rushing for 122 yards last week, Dwyer will be a popular fantasy option Sunday. He is the Steelers’ only viable every-down back at the moment, which should set him up for near-exclusive carries.
