Inactives: QB Tim Hasselbeck (3rd QB), WR Larry Fitzgerald, FB Tim Castille, DB Aaron Francisco, T Elton Brown, WR Jerheme Urban, DE Bo Schobel, DT Ross Kolodziej.

Inactives: WR Steve Smith, QB Jared Lorenzen (3rd QB), RB Brandon Jacobs, FS Gibril Wilson, CB Aaron Ross, T Adam Koets, G Kevin Boothe, DT Russell Davis.
Fantasy take: RB Derrick Ward is active and will start in Chicago. He's a nice fantasy sleeper this week. WR Plaxico Burress is also active.

Fantasy take: WR Joe Horn is active, but he has no real value in fantasy football circles. TE Alge Crumpler is also active, but he's no more than a borderline No. 1 fantasy tight end.
Buffalo Bills
Inactives: QB Gibran Hamdan (3rd QB), RB Marshawn Lynch, LB Coy Wire, RB Anthony Thomas, DB Jerametrius Butler, TE Brad Cieslak, OL Christian Gaddis, DE Chris Kelsay.

Minnesota Vikings
Inactives: QB Kelly Holcomb (3rd QB), DB Tank Williams, CB Antoine Winfield, TE Garrett Mills, LB Dontarrious Thomas, DT Conrad Bolston, T Chase Johnson, WR Troy Williamson.
Fantasy take: RB Adrian Peterson is active and should be in fantasy starting lineups across the board. However, his presence makes RB Chester Taylor much less attractive. WR Sidney Rice will see more work with Williamson inactive, so he's a nice low-end sleeper.
New York Jets
Inactives: QB Marques Tuiasosopo, CB Andre Dyson, DE Mike Devito, T Jacob Bender, T Adrian Jones, TE Jason Pociask, WR Jerricho Cotchery, DT Kareem Brown.
Fantasy take: WR Laveranues Coles is active and will start in Miami. WRs Justin McCareins and Brad Smith will see more work with Cotchery out of action.

Inactives: WR D.J. Hackett, FB David Kirtman, DE Jason Babin, LB Will Herring, G Mansfield Wrotto, T Ray Willis, DT Howard Green.
Fantasy take: QB Matt Hasselbeck and RBs Shaun Alexander and Maurice Morris are all active. The weather could be bad in Philadelphia, so start Hasselbeck with caution. Alexander is a risk-reward fantasy starter, while Morris should be reserved. WRs Nate Burleson and Bobby Engram will see more work with Hackett out.

Inactives: QB Marc Bulger, WR Marques Hagans (3rd QB), DB Eric Bassey, C Brett Romberg, T Mark LeVoir, WR Dante Hall, TE Dominique Byrd, DE James Hall.
