NFL Week 5 - Who to Start

Here is a list of players who I think will produce the maximum amount of points at their position for the upcoming week. The scoring system can be found at the bottom of this article.

Week 4 Comments: What is with Ronnie Brown going off 2 weeks in a row? Gonzalez outperformed Gates and to everyone's surprise the Chiefs knocked off the Chargers. I would have scratched Burress last week had I known about the ankle injury and the Cowboys scored nothing but touchdowns which isn't good when you pick a kicker.

QB - Tony Romo
I like Brady again against the Browns but I've decided not to choose the same player 2 weeks in a row. Plus, the Bills have the worst pass defense in the league even after Pennington's mediocre performance last week.

RB - Reggie Bush
I'm looking for Reggie to finally have a breakout game and this is the week. The Saints certainly need a great game from him in order to win. Bush will get most of the carries with McAllister out and he will also get a substantial amount of yards from the passing game.

WR - Randy Moss
Who in the Browns secondary is going to be able to stop him?

TE - Jeremy Shockey
I have not done well choosing a Tight End this year. However, this is my week. Shockey doesn't have a TD yet this year and is long overdue for one.

K - Kris Brown
With the Texans missing so many weapons on offense, they will be settling for field goals which will probably be enough to beat the Dolphins.

D - Baltimore Ravens
This could be a shutout game. The 49ers only weapon is Gore and the Ravens are only allowing 71 rushing yards per game. It is usually not very wise to pick a defense when they are playing on the road, but I can't resist. The 49ers may be able to hire Norv Turner back as offensive coordinator later this year.
