Fantasy Football: 5 Bold Predictions for Week 5

Up against a poor Steelers defense, Julio Jones will break his touchdown drought in a big way. What other surprising events can we expect in Week 5?

Last week was rough. But we were so close!

Only 1 of my 5 Bold Predictions for Week 4 came true: Sony Michel finished with the fifth-most rushing yards of the week. But we were very close with three of the other predictions.

The Cleveland Browns were a couple botched calls away from upsetting the Oakland Raiders, Aaron Jones scored one touchdown not two, and JuJu Smith-Schuster finished with two fewer receiving yards than Antonio Brown. The only one that was way off base was that Deshaun Watson would finish outside the top 20 quarterbacks (he finished as the QB3).

Close, but no cigar.

But we're on to Week 5, and with the new week comes a fresh set of bold predictions. Here are five more for your consideration.
