    You know there is a lot of OBJ and Landry talk and rightfully so, but how about Brandon LaFell and the season he is having. Tom Brady and the Pats offense can't say enough about him. Brady says he's like a running back after he catches the ball. Dude is quietly having a masterful season. It's amazing how a guy's talent can be showcased when he has someone that's actually a quarterback throwing him the ball.

    Well said.. Lafell has had an amazing renaissance. In Carolina he had stone hands and seemed to withdraw in a game. With NE & Brady he is blossoming. Great for Brandon as he deserves it.

    I've got Hill, Landry, Mett, and OBJ in both fantasy leagues I play in and Mett and OBJ got me around 60 points, Hill 16 and Landry 18. Throw in LaFell with 14 in one of the 2 leagues. Arizona's D got me 20 points too. The Tigers in the NFL are ballin right now.

    Top 10 Tigers in the NFL (Week 12)
    5 hours ago
    Week 12 is in the books and here is a look at the Top 10 LSU Tigers in the NFL from this past week.

    1. WR – Odell Beckham Jr. (New York Giants): Beckham was the talk of the sports world after he made a sensational one-handed 43-yard touchdown grab in a 31-28 loss to Dallas. He grabbed 10 passes for 146 yards and also added another receiving score. On the year, Beckham now has 41 receptions for 609 yards and five touchdowns.

    2. S – LaRon Landry (Indianapolis Colts): Landry logged a sack and was in on another one and added five tackles in a 23-3 win against Jacksonville. Playing in his second game back from suspension, the big-hitting safety has 29 tackles and 2.5 sacks in six games this season.

    3. WR – Jarvis Landry Miami Dolphins): Landry tied his career-high with seven receptions for 50 yards and scored twice in a 14-13 win over St. Louis. In his rookie season, he now has 49 receptions for 450 yards and five touchdowns.

    4. LB – Kevin Minter (Arizona Cardinals): Minter totaled five tackles (four solos and an assist) and a sack in a 19-3 loss to Seattle. In his second season, he has 28 tackles and a sack, starting three games and playing in 11.

    5. WR – Brandon LaFell (New England Patriots): LaFell caught nine balls for 98 yards in a 34-9 victory over Detroit. With 48 receptions for 674 yards and five touchdowns, LaFell is one catch and three yards shy of setting career-high marks in both categories.

    6. QB – Zach Mettenberger (Tennessee Titans): Mettenberger still has not won his first game as a starter, but he did attain one “first” on Sunday as he passed for 345 yards, giving him his first 300-plus yard game as a rookie. He completed 20-of-39 passes with a pair of touchdowns and an interception in a 43-23 loss to Philadelphia. On the season, Mettenberger has connected on 90-of-136 passes for 1,103 yards with seven touchdowns against five interceptions.

    7. DT – Bennie Logan (Philadelphia Eagles): Logan logged only one solo tackle, but he knocked down a pass, forced a fumble and also registered a quarterback hurry in a 43-24 win against Tennessee. He has 38 tackles on the year and that was the first fumble he forced in his two-year pro career.

    8. RB – Jeremy Hill (Cincinnati Bengals): Hill tallied 87 yards and a touchdown on 18 totes in a 22-13 win over Houston. With five games to go, he is only 357 yards away from the 1,000-yard mark and he has six touchdowns on 131 carries.

    9. DT – Michael Brockers (St. Louis Rams): Brockers logged a sack and two solo tackles in a 27-24 loss to San Diego. Thus far in 2014, he has started all 11 games and has a pair of sacks and 16 tackles.

    10. DT – Al Woods (Tennessee Titans): Woods was in on three tackles (two solos and an assist) in a 43-23 loss to the Eagles. That gives the former five-star tackle a career-high 20 tackles on the year.
