By Jean-Claude Godin
QB:
1)Drew Brees, Saints @ Bucs
I expect this matchup to be high-scoring with a Saints win and NO can't run the ball so it's gonna be another Sunday of cool Brees, as he will extend his record for most consecutive games with at least a TD.
2)Robert Griffin III, Redskins @ Giants
Another high-scoring affair in this match up and the Redskins offense is all about RG3 and Alfred Morris. The Giants just came off a huge win in SF but in Giants fashion, they will follow up that nice road win with a loss at home. If the Giants win, it will be ugly. Redskins will keep it close and score by the pound!
3)Andrew Luck, Colts vs Browns
Luck has bounced back from every bad outing this year and they play the Browns at home...... The Colts are still without their RB Donald Brown.
4)Eli Manning, Giants vs Redskins
As I stated, Redskins vs Giants will be high-scoring, so I think we will see a nice QB duel between Eli and Griffin which will be their first meeting.
5)Tony Romo, Cowboys @ Panthers
I know, How can I put Romo so high??? He didn't play bad last week and he plays the mediocre Panthers D on Sunday. I like this matchup!! That's if he can stay away from tossing picks.
6)Aaron Rodgers, Packers @ Rams
The real Rodgers is starting to show face, but imagine what the results would be on his part if his O-line could block a bit better? This is why I have AROD in the 6 slot. The Rams D will make it difficult for him on Sunday.
7)Ryan Fitzpatrick, Bills vs Titans
This is probably the highest I will rate the ivy leaguer this year. This has high scoring written all over this matchup vs the Titans.
8)Tom Brady, Pats vs Jets
Jets are stout vs the pass so I expect the Pats game plan to focus around Steven Ridley
9)Ben Roethlisberger, Steelers @ Bengals
10)Matt Schaub, Texans vs Ravens
11)Joe Flacco, Ravens @ Texans
12)Andy Dalton, Bengals vs Steelers
13)Jay Cutler, Bears vs Lions
14)Josh Freeman, Bucs vs Saints
15)Carson Palmer, Raiders vs Jags
16)Matt Hasselbeck, Titans @ Bills
17)Sam Bradford, Rams vs Packers
18)Cam Newton, Panthers vs Cowboys
19)Mark Sanchez, Jets @ Pats
20)Brandon Weeden, Browns @ Colts
Matt Stafford did not make my top 20, I really think he will have an ugly game on Monday night!
RB:
1)Arian Foster, Texans vs Ravens
Baltimore is giving up a lot of yards vs the run and now they're without Ray Lewis.
2)Trent Richardson, Browns @ Colts (only if hes 100% healthy)
The Colts D is SOFT and T-Rich is a monster. If his ribs hold up, he should have a monster Sunday.
3)Darren McFadden, Raiders vs Jags
McFadden has struggled so far this year and I think he will the rest of the season since he has never looked good running in the zone blocking scheme. But this is the Jags we are talking about here!!! Dress Run-DMC
4)Steven Ridley, Pats vs Jets
The Jets are weak vs the run, this is a good match for them to change the trend, but until they do... I like Ridley to run close to 100 yards with a score.
5)Adrian Peterson, Vikings vs Cards
Make it 5 weeks in a row for AP without a score. His ankle is still bothering him but he's a must-dress every week. The Cards are now back with Skelton at the helm.... Vikings will win and AP could finally see pay dirt.
6)Maurice Jones-Drew, Jags @ Raiders
7)Ray Rice, Ravens @ Texans
8)C.J. Spiller, Bills vs Titans
9)Chris Johnson, Titans vs Bills
WOW CJ2K is back on my list. If he can't run wild on the Bills defense then you can forget about him the rest of the season.
10)Alfred Morris, Redskins @ Giants
11)Felix Jones, Cowboys @ Panthers
12)Marshawn Lynch, Seahawks @ 49ers
13)Fred Jackson, Bills vs Titans
Spiller and Jackson have to be dressed at the same time because of the time share..... If you drafted both of them like I did, well-played.
14)Matt Forte, Bears vs Lions
15)Ahmad Bradshaw, Giants vs Redskins (not 100%)
16)Frank Gore, 49ers vs Seahawks
17)Michael Bush, Bears vs Lions
18)Rashard Mendenhall, Steelers @ Bengals
19)Andre Brown, Giants vs Redskins
Brown has been practicing with the first team this week!!! Sleeper play here. Just doublecheck his status on Sunday morning.
20)Doug Martin, Bucs vs Saints
21)Steven Jackson, Rams vs Packers
22)Daryl Richardson, Rams vs Packers
23)Ben Jarvus Green Ellis, Bengals vs Steelers
24)Alex Green, Packers @ Rams
25)Mikel Leshoure, Lions @ Bears
WR:
1)A.J. Green, Bengals vs Steelers
Ike Taylor can't cover anyone this year!! Money!!!!
2)Victor Cruz, Giants vs Redskins
If Green went off on DeAngelo Hall a few weeks ago, I think Cruz can do the same!! SALSA TIME!
3)Marques Colston, Saints @ Bucs
Colston looked good prior to the bye and it looks like the Saints will be without Jimmy Graham.
4)Vincent Jackson. Bucs vs Saints
Jackson scored 3 TDs in his last two games, I think he gets at least one vs the Saints.
5)Andre Johnson, Texans vs Ravens
Ravens just lost their #1 CB Ladarrius Webb for the year!!! AJ on Sunday.
6)Steve Johnson, Bills vs Titans
Johnson is getting at least 10 looks a game, but the last few weeks the Bills have played against top defenses.... not this week!
7)Kenny Britt, Titans @ Bills
Britt has all the physical tools to succeed. This should be the game were he goes off, as last week he was starting to show signs of his old self.
8)Reggie Wayne, Colts vs Browns
Wayne looks rejuvenated and besides Joe Haden in the Browns secondary, there isn't much. Wayne should have himself a party on Sunday!
9)Brandon Marshall, Bears vs Lions
Cutler has eyes only for Marshall.
10)Mike Wallace, Steelers @ Bengals
Seems like he's the only receiver who is capable of scoring TDs for the Steelers..
11)Calvin Johnson, Lions @ Bears
12)Percy Harvin, Vikings vs Cards
13)Mike Williams, Bucs vs Saints
14)Larry Fitzgerald, Cards @ Vikings
15)Dez Bryant, Cowboys @ Panthers
16)Hakeem Nicks, Giants vs Redskins
17)Jordy Nelson, Packers @ Rams
18)James Jones, Packers @ Rams
19)Denarius Moore, Raiders vs Jags
20)Wes Welker, Pats vs Jets
21)Antonio Brown, Steelers @ Bengals
22)Kendall Wright, Titans @ Bills
23)Josh Gordon, Browns @ colts
24)Donnie Avery, Colts vs Browns
25)Torrey Smith, Ravens @ Texans
TE:
1)Jason Witten, Cowboys @ Panthers
2)Heath Miller, Steelers @ Bengals
3)Aaron Hernandez, Pats vs Jets
4)Jared Cook, Titans @ Bills
5)Vernon Davis, 49ers vs Seahwaks
6)Rob Gronkowski, Pats vs Jets
7)Owen Daniels, Texans vs Ravens
8)Brandon Myers, Raiders vs Jags
9)Scott Chandler, Bills vs Titans
10)Jermaine Gresham, Bengals vs Steelers

What did we learn in the NFL week #5
Jean-Claude Godin
What did we learn this past week end??
That the St. Louis Rams defense is as legit as the Cards and Seahawks. It's young and loaded with talent. Chris Long has this unstoppable motor, he's a beauty to watch! His bloodlines with hall of fame dad, Howie, shows on every play! Speaking of bloodlines, middle linebacker, James Laurinaitis plays like an animal... get it?? Animal!! His father was half of legendary wrestling tag team "The Road Warriors" Animal and Hawk!! Laurinaitis is transforming into one of the top MLB in the game as we speak! Also want to mention Janoris Jenkins preformence last thursday! HE WAS BALLING!! second round pick in last april's draft, he should of been a first round pick but slipped to the second because of character issues!! Jeff Fisher's gamble is paying off!! The NFC West used to be the laughing joke of the NFL but this division is becoming the toughest division of the NFL! All 4 defenses are sick with it!
We also learned that the Cards would be part of the converstaion of top tems in the league..... if they had an offensive line to block for Kolb and for the running game!! Kolb has been sacked 17 times the last 2 games!
The New Jets played farely better and ditto to Mark Sanchez but Mark Sanchez is not the answer, never was!! I know Tim Tebow is not a prototypical QB but all he does is WIN.... but if only the Jets can figure out a way to stop the run!! If this keeps up, Rex Ryan could be on the hot seat!
The New York Giants were down 17-7 and won 41-27! Yes they were playing the Cleveland Browns but on any given sunday anyone can beat anyone! The Giants are sitting at 3-2 but this team is a lot better then their record indicates! I don't see no championship hangover here..... imagine if they had a healthy (S) Kenny Philips, (WR) Hakeem Nicks, (CB) Terell Thomas, (RB)Bradshaw was hurt, now it's Andre Brown's turn to miss some time..... and if Justin Tuck and JPP could get it going.. watch out!! It always look ugly with the Giants, they make things so difficult for themsleves but with Eli at the helm throwing darts to Victor Cruz, all is in control!!
May I add that Victor Cruz is the worst possible nightmare for opposing defenses! He has the speed to line up on the outside and the size to play slot! He is the jack of all trades!! I just wanted to point this out since a few weeks ago Roddy White of the Falcons claimed that Cruz is too small to play on the outside where the big boys play!! I'm sorry but that was such a foolish statement on his behalf!! Cruz is part of the elite at his position!
In conclusion, I wanted to give most of this piece to the Colts and coach Chuck Pagano. The Indianapolis Colts are a lot better then people think they are. This team showed the whole nation on sunday what a team can accomplish when you dig deep and play for your brothers and coaches and not for one's self!!! I hope Cam Newton took time to watch the replay of the Packers vs the Colts last night on NFL network! It was beautiful to see the Colts play the way the played for coach Chuck Pagano!! If you don't know by now, coach Pagano is in the hospital battling for his life. Last wednesday it was announced that coach Pagano had Leukemia! To see Reggie Wayne post one of his best games in his carrer last sunday was awesome. Reggie Wayne goes way back with coach Pagano when both of them were part of the Miami Hurricanes. Coach Pagano was part of Butch Davis's staff and as for Wayne, he was a star in the making!! May I say that canton has a special place reserved for Reggie!! He's done it all and he is still balling at a high level and this without Peyton as his QB!! Overall, the Colts and the Irsay family showed tremendous class with their campaign for Chuck!! CHUCKSTRONG!! I'm hoping to see the Colts in the playoff picture come january!!

Fantasy rankings for Week 4
Instead of me telling you who to dress and who to sit, I decided to rank the players per position instead.
Here are my fantasy rankings for week 4
QB:
1)Aaron Rodgers: This is finally the week where Rodgers will put up numbers!! SF,Chi and Sea were three tough match ups but now the Packers receive the worst D in the league... the Saints!!! Cha-Ching!!
2)Matt Ryan: So far he's been the best fantasy QB this year and that trend should continue. Carolina offers a weak pass rush and Ryan should have no trouble connecting with Julio and cie.
3)Tom Brady: The Pats offense looks a bit out of synch and this is shocking considering the reunion with Josh McDaniels. I still expect this game to be high scoring. Remember last year's match between the Pats and Bills in sept.???
4)Eli Manning: Doesnt matter who they play and who is playing at WR for the Giants! Eli gets the job done!
5)Peyton Manning: I'm one of those who think Peyton can't throw the ball properly but for this week it doesn't really matter as the Broncos receive the Raiders!
6)Matt Schaub vs Titans
7)Drew Brees vs Packers
8)Andy Dalton vs Jags
9)Robert Griffin vs Bucs
10)Ryan Fitzpatrick vs Pats
11)Mick Vick vs Giants
12)Tony Romo vs Bears
13)Jake Locker vs Texans
14)Christian Ponder vs Lions
15)Matthew Stafford vs Vikings
16)Cam Newton vs Falcons
17)Jay Cutler vs Cowboys
18)Philip Rivers vs Cheifs
19)Josh Freeman vs Redskins
20)Matt Cassel vs Chargers
RB:
1)Maurice Jones-Drew: Bengals are last vs the run and last week Jones-Drew went off and showed the nation he is ba
2)Arian Foster: Foster is the best RB in the NFL so this is a no brainer!
3)Adrian Peterson: Lions defense does not look hot and AP said it himself that the rust is gone after last week's game vs the niners.
4)Marshwan Lynch: Rams get back their 1st round pick from last april's draft in Michael Brockers but this is not enough to shut down beast mode!!
5)Jamaal Charles: I think it's safe to say that Charles is back to old self after last week and the Cheifs will be without Peyton Hillis so expect big things from Charles vs the chargers on sunday!
6)Doug Martin vs Redskins
7)LeSean McCoy vs Giants
8)Run DMC vs Broncos
9)Cedric Benson vs Saints
10)Frank Gore vs Jets
11)Willis McGhaee vs Raiders

23)Darren Sproles vs Packers
24)Mikel Leshoure vs Vikings
25)Ryan Williams vs Dolphins
WR:
1)Calvin Johnson: Even if Stafford does not play it does not matter. We call him Megatron for a reason!!
2)Andre Johnson: Watch him dominate the Titans secondary this sunday!! ManChild will be going off on sunday!!
3)Larry Fitzgerald: Miami's defense is actually solid but the secondary is their achilles heel! The real Fitz showed up last week and I think Him and Kolb will continue to conncet.
4)AJ Green: If he was still available in your draft in round 3 and you snagged him...Job well done!! HE IS FOR REAL!!!!!
5)Julio Jones: The Panthers secondary is a joke... I see a monster game for Jones!

7)Brandon Lloyd vs Bills
8)Victor Cruz vs Eagles
9)Steve Johnson vs Pats
10)Demaryius Thomas vs Raiders
11)Jordy Nelson vs Saints
