START ‘EM – QB

player. 44. . Quarterback. Falcons. Matt Ryan. 1

Somehow Matt Ryan‘s five touchdown performance last week wasn’t enough for the Falcons to beat the Saints. The NFC South is becoming more and more like college football, where defense is nearly non-existent.

With the Falcons defense unable to get opponents off the field, Ryan is going to be forced to carry his team all season long. Throw that in with the fact that he gets a vulnerable Bengals team this week and Ryan is a must start in fantasy in week four.

Plus… Why would you bench him after he threw for FIVE touchdowns last week? That’d be downright silly.

Take advance of this hot streak Matt Ryan is on and that he’s going up against a Cincinnati defense  who have surrendered eight total touchdowns to quarterbacks so far this season.
