It's hard to believe that we are through 8 weeks of the fantasy season already, but that's where we are. I don't know about you, but this has been a crazy season for me. All of my studs have been hurt or busts, and the guys I swore would tank are blowing the doors off. Go figure.
These are the players that you were probably counting on to carry your fantasy team this week, I know I was, but they just didn't get the job done. So here are the players that were Fantasy Death for you in week 8.
QBs
Chad Pennington NYJ – 13-20 106yds passing, 2-5 rushing, 2 fumbles (0 pts) Luckily for Jets fans, Kellen Clemens was waiting in the wings…..to throw 2 INTs, lol.
Daunte Culpepper OAK – 15-32 167yds, 1 INT, 3 fumbles (-2pts)
Vinny Testaverde CAR – 12-20 82yds, 1 INT passing, 2-5yds rushing (1pt)
Brian Griese CHI – 22-40 208yds, 1 TD, 4 INTs, 1 Fumble passing, 3-8 rushing (4 pts) He is sure making me forget Rex.

WRs
Chad Johnson CIN – 5-51 yds (5 pts) Ocho Cinco is now Ocho Dudo.
Steve Smith CAR – 2-18yds (1pt) He has to be the happiest man in football right now.

Marty Booker MIA – 3-31yds, 1 fumble (1 pt)
Laveranues Coles NYJ – 1-13yds (1 pt)
Dennis Northcutt JAC – 0 receptions, 1-5 rushing (0 pts) Just as in previous years, Northcutt is a big tease.
