Quick, grab Titans' Britt if you can

Kenny Britt was not a popular choice on draft day. The Titans wide receiver was out of shape in OTAs, struggled in the preseason, and didn't draw praise from coach Jeff Fisher, who threatened to deactivate Britt if he didn't focus.
The Rutgers product didn't record a catch in Week 1. Things have changed drastically for the Titans most talented wide receiver. He started last week with the injury to Justin Gage and will start against the Jaguars Monday night.
Britt has scored in three consecutive games and almost scored two TDs last week, but one was called back after a replay showed Britt was touched while down. He had four catches for 86 yards with a TD against the Cowboys.
Britt will get targets near the goal line and on deep passes. Britt might still be available on the waiver wire and if he is, grab him now. Britt's ascension will continue this week against the Jaguars, who have allowed 12 passing TDs and 282.2 passing yards per week.
Here are some more good plays in Week 6:
Joe Flacco (Ravens, QB): Flacco has just one game of multiple passing TDs and the Ravens focused on the running game last week as Flacco attempted just 25 passes. This is the chance to get Flacco going against a Patriots defense that lacks a pass rush and ranks 28th against the pass.
Vince Young (Titans, QB): If you're looking for an injury replacement or bye week fill-in, consider Young. The Titans aren't a passing team, but Young has attempted 53 passes the last two weeks after just 43 the first three games. Young isn't making mistakes and the Titans will exploit a defense ranked 30th and has major issues in the secondary.
Felix Jones (Cowboys, RB): There was a lot of talk about Jones being more involved and it came to fruition last week against the Titans. Jones had 15 carries for 109 yards and four catches for 17 yards. The Vikings aren't as imposing against the run as they have been in recent seasons.
Ryan Torain (Redskins, RB): Torain didn't impress with 16 carries for 40 yards and four catches for 27 yards against the Packers last week. The Packers are good against the run and at least Torain was targeted in the passing game. Look for Torain to put up much better numbers against a Colts defense ranked 29th against the run.
Percy Harvin (Vikings, WR): It was no surprise that Harvin went off with the addition of Randy Moss. Harvin is much better out of the slot and will have another good game against the Cowboys.
Johnny Knox (Bears, WR): Knox was on many benches last week and with Todd Collins attempting to be a quarterback, it was a smart move. Jay Cutler will return this week and that is a huge boost for Knox, especially against a Seahawks team that is ranked 31st against the pass and doesn't play as well on the road.
Mike Wallace (Steelers, WR): The return of Ben Roethlisberger and a Browns secondary susceptible to big plays makes Wallace a good play.
Tony Moeaki (Chiefs, TE): If you need a bye week fill-in or replacement for Jermichael Finley, here's an option. Moeaki will get a lot of looks at the goal line and the Texans don't defend the tight end well.
Remembering 9/11: Where things stand now As we remember those we lost on 9/11, we're looking at the ongoing battle to secure long term protection for first responders and the latest twists and turns in the cases of the accused terrorists.
