Fantasy football start ’em, sit ’em: Week 5

We’re firing into the Week 5 weekend action, and this is where the fantasy football season starts to get much more challenging — and much more interesting.

In addition to finding replacements for slow starters and injured players, we also now must contend with bye weeks, too. The Detroit Lions, Los Angeles Chargers, Philadelphia Eagles and Tennessee Titans are off, and that means a solid number of fantasy regulars are on a bye, too.

The good news is that the weather appears to be mostly favorable, although we might get some rain in the Indianapolis-Jacksonville game, as well as the Sunday night contest between Dallas and Pittsburgh, so make sure to double-check the weather forecast on Sunday morning.
