Fantasy Starts of the Week

On Thursday Night Jay Cutler threw 0 TDs and 5 INTs, so I feel sorry for anybody who started him, but for everybody else here is who you should start This week.
QB
Start of the Week
Drew Brees- He is playing the terrible Rams, and he is one of the best Qbs in the NFL. I mean, you should start him any week, last week he played the #1 pass D in the league and still did alright. Now he plays the 23rd rank pass Defense in the Rams.
Projected Stats- 312 Yards 3 TDs


RB
Starts of the Week
Its super hard to pick between these two, so I'll go with both.

Ray Rice- He is a beast already, he even scored last week when the Ravens played like crap. He is the 4th ranked fantasy RB who is going up against the 31st ranked Browns. Come on, who wouldn't start him?
Projected Stats- 143 Yards 2 TDs

Chris Johnson- Ok, you have the best runningback in the league (yea, I did just say that) against the worst running defense in the league. PLUS, though Vince Young has been better, the Titans still aren't passing very effectively, just more effeciently. Then again, that is all you need when you have Johnson on your team.
Projected Stats- 164 Yards 2 TDs

WR
Starts of the Week
Percy Harvin*Sleeper*- This may be a suprise to you, but Percy is an explosive receiver who should definatly take advantage of the Lions, who rank 31st against the pass and are especially weak in defending the deep pass. Also he has a chance to return a kick all the way on special teams.
Projected Stats- 84 Yards TD

Marques Colston- He's a talented receiver who has one of the best Qbs in the league throwing him the ball...against the Rams. You should definatly start him, its obvious.

Projected Stats 106 Yards TD
TE
Brent Celek- Though the Chargers have been good against the pass, their weak point has been against the TEs. Especially with the pressure coming at McNabb, look for him to dump it off the the TE and let him make a play.
Projected Stats- 52 Yards TD


Kickers- Go with either Gostkowski(Patriots) or Stover (Colts) These games are usually high scoring, so expect these guys to be kicking plenty of Extra Points and possibly a field goal or 2.

Defenses
Ravens,Vikings,Saints- I shouldn't even need to explain why to start these 3.
