I can’t fight it anymore.  I know everyone tells you never to let others influence how you think and feel but it’s so hard to this week.  I mean, I recommended the Oakland Raiders last week on defense.  How stupid could I be?  I’ve got to right the ship.  I gotta become one with the other rankers and just give in, right?  There’s no hope trying to play outside the box, all outside box playing is futile.  I should just jump off the fantasy rankings bridge with everyone else…nah, I’m just joking.  But I had you going for a minute, right?  I’m one of the best written actors of my generation, or so I’ve been told.  You should see me type Hamlet!  I’ve been compared to Kenneth Branagh in that regards.  In fact, I’m hoping for my first Golden Globe nomination this year once they create a category for me.  I’ve already picked out my suit.  I wonder if people will be able to tell I borrowed it from my dad…eh, let’s not talk about my eventual rise to fame.  It bores me.  Better yet, let’s talk about Pierre Thomas and his great matchup against the Rams.  To be honest, I’m a bit surprised I’m one of the few this high on him.  Do these other ‘perts not know the Rams are ranked near the bottom in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs?  That was rhetorical.  Of course they know but they’re probably too busy paying attentio to how unproductive he’s been of late.  It happens but to be fair, when PT has been given a good matchup he has produced.  Sure, he’s not likely to put up 200+ yards any time soon but about 120 total yards and a TD are well within reach for the PT Bruiser this week and I like his chances he grabs those reigns and rides into fantasy glory.  In other areas to trumpet on, we’ve got quite a few rankings wrinkles this week.  Steven Jackson?  Sometimes the matchups make the man and given he’s performed well of late, it’s hard to deny him a top 10 RB finish.  Same goes for Ryan Mathews who has sneakily been a top 10 play over the last 4 weeks in PPR leagues but he’s out there singing Black Eyed Peas to us.  Folks, where is the love?  Besides these guys, further down the road we have Mendenhall getting a mega-bump along with the Ogre and Donald Brown to wrap up my top 20 RBs and I also gave Ellington a nudge.  This IS still the same Titans team that can’t stop the run, right?  At wide out, I’m finally treating Dez like what he has been: good but not great.  And while I’m at it, I gave Hilton and Patterson a little WR2 love bite due to matchups and explosiveabiltiy.  No need to google that, it’s totally a word.  At TE, I gotta say: it Ertz so good.  On the DST front, Tampa Bay…woah.  I know, I know, San Fran isn’t the Buffalo Bills.  But Tampa Bay isn’t 0-8 Tampa Bay anymore and for very good reasons and are playing at home.  Kickers?  Just my niece and I playing a game of Hungry Hippos where the marbles have kicker names on them.  The ones I got were in, the ones she got were out.  But enough about Delta Burke winning me Josh Scobee, let’s get on with it.  Here’s the rankings for week 15 of the 2013 Fantasy Football season…
