Best Fantasy Matchups for Week 5 Games: Quarterback, Tyrod Taylor, Peyton Manning, Raiders, Titans, Carson Palmer, Detroit Lions, Matt Ryan, Tom Brady

Tyrod Taylor at Tennessee Titans:

Taylor should love going up against this porous Titans defense however the Bills will be without Karlos Williams and starting running back LeSean McCoy for this game. It will be tough for Taylor to make a lot happen without explosive running backs but he should begin to start running in touchdowns himself.  At the very least Taylor gains some points on the ground with his legs and throws a couple of deep shots to Charles Clay or Percy Harvin.

Peyton Manning at Oakland Raiders:

Manning needs to have a dominant game eventually and this is the time to do it. The Raiders will struggle to contain Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders as well as keeping a nice offense pace to keep the time of possession in their favor. The Raiders defense will crumble the second they get tired.  

Carson Palmer at Detroit Lions:

Palmer will need to make some plays under duress by without Tyrunn Walker the Lions will need to be creative in how they generate pressure. Palmer should not struggle with a toothless Lions defense.

Matt Ryan at Washington Redskins:

Ryan could have a great game or completely bomb based on the flow of the game. Ryan will need to throw a lot however that may not be doable. If the Falcons dominate the Redskins on the ground expect them to ditch the passing game entirely.

Wild Card Matchup

Tom Brady at Dallas Cowboys:

Brady will have the pleasure of welcoming Greg Hardy back to NFL action. Hardy could prove to be a gigantic problem for Brady but currently this matchup seems pretty clear cut. Brady should manhandle this defense like he has every other defense in the league but if the Cowboys dominate the time of possession he could be in for a low scoring day.
