Winners of the Week, Week 5 Edition

Hi, with my wrap-up post coming soon, I am making the winners of the week post. Sorry that I haven't posted fantasy starts and sits for awhile but I will make sure to post them this week. Im not giving any news alerts because that will come in my wrap-up post. Here are the winners of the week.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Tom Brady, QB, Patriots: Wooh! Brady is back. The best QB in NFL history was fresh off his suspension and didn't show any rust at all. Brady completed 28 passes for 406 yards and 3 TD's. What a week. 400 yards is a lot and 3 TD's is great too. His receivers were super reliable and his throws were on the money. Brady is back and he started off his season by winning player of the week, we should be scared for the rest of the season.

TEAM OF THE WEEK: Atlanta Falcons (4-1):
For the 2nd straight week, the Falcons have won team of the week. This week wasn't as impressive as their historic week last week, but its up there. People thought the Falcons would snap under the pressure of playing the undefeated reigning super bowl champs with a top defense and a decent offense. NOPE! The Falcons ended their winning streak with a bang. Matt Ryan was good even with the pressure of the top secondary in the league and held Von Miller off of a huge game. Devonta Freeman/Tevin Coleman duo went off again. The defense looked really good for the first time of the season. Beating the Broncos was a huge milestone but they will again be put to the test going up against the rested Seahawks in Seattle, can Matt Ryan's gang take team of the week again next week. We'll see.

Marcus Mariota, QB, Titans: 20 completions for 163 yards and 3 TD's, 30 fantasy points

Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Cowboys: Rushed for 134 yards and 2 TD's, 28 fp
