The Chargers are coming back home feeling great after taking the Jags behind the woodshed. The good news is... the Chargers offense looked amazing. The bad news is... it has shown no consistency. Luckily for fantasy owners the Bills are coming to town and expecting a replay of what happened Monday isn't too far fetched.

Bill Rankings:

QB - 21

HB - 26

WR -19

TE - 28

Philip Rivers - Rivers didn't look hurt against the Jags on Monday. The Bills have close to no pass rush, which means Rivers should have his way on Sunday. Prediction: 330 yards and two touchdowns.

Ryan Mathews - Mathews is on a roll, but can he keep it up. The Bills allow plenty of points to running backs, which should mean a hat trick for RM24. Prediction: 170 total yards and a touchdown.

Mike Tolbert - Big question with Tolbert is all about the number of touches. Mathews success means limited opportunities for Tolbert. Prediction: 70 total yards and a touchdown.

Vincent Jackson - Just when you think Jackson is a waste, he shows up and goes for 150+. This every other week nonsense is putting owners through ends this week. Prediction: Six catches for 120 yards and a touchdown

Malcom Floyd - Floyd went for over 100 yards on four catches on Monday. Can he break the century mark this week? I don't think so. Prediction: four catches for 65 yards

Antonio Gates - The Bills are no good against tight ends this year. I am expecting big things from Gates this week. Prediction: seven catches for 85 yards and a touchdown
