Regarding the Start ‘Ems, Brady is no longer someone you’ll be starting every week. He’s a good play this week, however, as he gets a horrible Redskins defense in week five.
Mack could be injured, so definitely monitor that, but if he’s healthy, you want in your lineup against an atrocious Chiefs run defense. Ridley should be able to take advantage of a weak Texans secondary. Graham is a toss-up, but might do some damage in Dallas against the ‘Boys. The Ravens defense will have a bounce back week against a backup quarterback in Pittsburgh.
With the Sit ‘Ems, stay as far away from Cousins as possible, even if it is against a bad Giants defense. Jacobs is a tough sit, but the Bears defensive front is just too good. Landry had a nice week four performance, but he’s got a tough go of it in San Francisco this weekend.
Witten hasn’t been much to write home about in his return to the NFL and I don’t love him against a feisty Packers defense. Lastly, yes the Bills defense is good, but the Titans don’t turn the ball over, so it might be tough to really get a lot out of them this week.
There you have it! My Start ‘Em and Sit ‘Em candidates for week five of the NFL season. Best of luck everyone!
