Matt Forte-Fantasy Start of the Week
Forte has been a fantasy gem this season. This has been his most consistent season he put together in recent memory. This week he faces a familiar foe in the Green Bay Packers. The Packers tote the worst run defense in the NFL and should be easy pickings foe a back like Forte. In his week 4 matchup Forte rushed for 122 yard on 23 carries. At best the Packers give up an average 153.5 yards a game. Forte should defiantly be in your lineup this week.

Dez Bryant
Last week Dez Bryant did not have the type of day he envisioned when he faced the Arizona Cardinals. His starting quarterback was ruled out and he had Patrick Peterson shadowing him all day. A trip to London against the Jacksonville Jaguars is just what he needs to bounce. Hopefully Tony Romo will be able to suit up and get Bryant back on track. The Jaguars currently give up the 6th most yards in the NFL.

Russell Wilson
Russell Wilson has been a surprisingly good fantasy quarterback this season. In standard leagues he has accumulated over 30 points twice this season. The New York Giants have surrendered an average of 262.4 yards/per game. When you add in Wilson’s running ability he is defiantly a must start. Russell Wilson has the most rushing yards and rushing touchdowns by a QB this season. The absence of Percy Harvin has had minimal impact on the QB’s season. Harvin was rarely used before his departure from Seattle.

Julio Jones
At the beginning of the season there were high hopes for Julio Jones and the Atlanta Falcons team. Now it would seem they are on the brink of a total meltdown. If the Falcons are going to make some noise this season it will be up too the likes of Matt Ryan and Julio Jones to make to happen. The Falcons will be facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers where they where they had there best game of the season. Jones had 161 yards receiving and 2 touchdowns in the blowout win against the buccaneer. Tampa Bay has gotten a little better but still ranks 31st against the pass.

Mark Sanchez
Mark Sanchez’s play against the Texans is the reason he make the list this week. Although it was not perfect he did mange to look comfortable in the pocket and guided the Eagles to victory with 2 touchdowns. He will be going up against the Carolina Panthers who have been know to stout a pretty good defense. That hasn’t been the case so much this year. The panthers give up the 16th most passing yards and Sanchez has an abundance of weapons at his disposal including wide receiver Jeremy Maclin.
