Sunday Studs: Which Experts Got Them Right in Week 12?

I’m sure everyone’s seen the Johnson vs. Finnegan fight already.  I’m not going to debate whether it added to or detracted from Andre’s stud status, but I’d be lying if I said it didn’t make the 20-0 game much more exciting to watch!

This week a few players cemented their push to be every week starters in almost any league format. Guys like Peyton Hillis, Dwayne Bowe, Fred Jackson and Brandon Lloyd exploded…again. Rookies like Jacoby Ford and Sam Bradford are also making some noise as we head into the final stretch of games.

You would have been ridiculed if you had some of these guys on your roster early in the season. Kudos to you if you had the vision to grab them and play them. Let’s see which experts delivered the most accurate punches for this week’s Sunday Studs.
