Full 32 team kicker rankings follow the jump.
Kickers to start: Sebastian Janikowski (Oakland) - Janikowski is having a great season and this week he faces New England. Its going to be a shoot out and lots of points will be scored.
Rob Bironas (Tennessee) - Tennessee will be travelling to Cleveland and the Titans have been moving the ball better but I think the loss of Britt will create more kicking opportunities.
Neil Rackers (Houston) - Houston has been moving the ball and scoring a lot. This week they face Pittsburgh and their strong defense, so I think they'll settle for more field goals.
Kickers to avoid: Adam Vinatieri (Indianapolis) - His team will go against a strong defense in Tampa. I see a lack of points here this week.
Rian Lindell (Buffalo) - I don't have a good feeling about Buffalo this week, coming off the huge high of beating New England. I see a let down by Lindell and the Buffalo offense.
Matt Prater (Denver) - Green Bay seems to be solving the defensive woes and should shut down Denver. Look else where for your kicker this week.
