Week 5 was a special one for many reasons. We had a lot of dud performances. Honestly, watching Week 5 after the first four weeks of the season was, to say the least, boring.
Have to give a huge congrats to Drew Brees though for passing both Brett Favre and Peyton Manning for the NFL All-Time Passing Yards Record. He had a hell of a game in the process.
Even though that was awesome to watch, kickers definitely had a week to forget. Mason Crosby led the way with four missed field goals and an extra point, which ultimately led to the Packers losing the game.
Anyway, let’s get to Week 6 2018 Fantasy Football Week 6
