I have noticed a huge increase in adds for Brian Westbrook after his 17 point performance last week.
Be extremely careful before starting Westbrook this week against a stout San Diego D-fense that held Thomas Jones and Jamal Charles to under 50 yards. Westbrook will be in a timeshare situation this week, and his touches have rapidly declined over the last 2 weeks in Favor of Anthony Dixon.
Westbrook saw 24 carries just 3 weeks ago, since then has seen the rock only 18 times over the last 2 games. Take away a 60+ yard TD catch and Westbrook is sitting on a combined 5 points over the last 2 games. He still has that ol' Westbrook burst and with a solid workload can still produce decent numbers, however it is the playoffs and do you really want to risk your season on an aging veteran with a limited workload? Check the waiver wire there are better options available.
