Vernon Davis aggatates Coach Nolan
Vernon Davis had only one catch in Sunday's game. After the catch, he shouted at the 49ers' sideline, angering head coach Mike Nolan, reports the San Jose Mercury News. "He got a little excited, yes he did, and I told him to sit down," said Nolan.
Our View: Davis has been a huge disappointment in the Mike Martz offense, and this action probably won't make matters any better.
Warner remains the starter
Kurt Warner committed six turnovers on Sunday, but Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt never thought about removing him for Matt Leinart and Warner remains the starter, The Arizona Republic reports.
Our View: Warner was still highly productive for fantasy owners with 472 yards and two touchdowns. He has been very effective this season for the most part, and his job seems safe.
Tests on Boldin negative
Boldin had precautionary tests for a head injury on Sunday, but tests were negative and he was able to move all of his extremities after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit on Sunday and leaving in an ambulance, reports the Arizona Republic. "The tests were all negative, which is great news, and it looks like he'll be heading back with us tonight." team president Michael Bidwill said. Boldin also needed stiches for a cut to his lip.
Our View: This is obviously very good news for what looked like a scary situation at the time. We will continue to provide updates on his status throughout the week.
Tomlinson rushes for 106 yards, two scores
Tomlinson had his best yardage game of the season on Sunday at Oakland, getting 20 carries for 106 yards and touchdowns. He also caught two passes for nine yards.
Our View: That's the old LT that fantasy owners know and love, but Tomlinson struggled for most of the day until he broke a 41 yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. The toe seems healthy enough.
Campbell has big game vs. Cowboys
Campbell had an excellent game in Week 4 vs. Dallas, completing 20-of-31 passes for 231 yards and two touchdowns.
Our View: The ultra-efficient Campbell now has six touchdown passes and no interceptions this season. He is going unnoticed by many but might be worth starting by fantasy owners due to his consistency.
Big day for Jackson
Running back Steven Jackson starred in the Week 4 loss to the Bills. He rushed 24 times for 110 yards and a touchdown, and he added five catches for 78 yards.
Our View: It's nice to see Jackson finally find the end zone and have a monster day. He is looking more like the first-round fantasy stud we expected, but we still have plenty of worries about his teammates.
Cutler throws for 361 yards
Jay Cutler completed 29-of-49 passes for 361 yards and one touchdown against two interceptions in the Week 4 loss to Kansas City.
Our View: Cutler has came back down to earth a little bit during the past two weeks after starting the season on fire. In the first two games of 2008, Cutler posted six touchdowns against one interception. During the past two weeks, he has thrown three touchdowns against three interceptions. Regardless, he is on the brink of joining the elite at his position and should be in your lineup every week.
LJ runs roughshod over Denver
Running back Larry Johnson lugged the football 28 times for 192 yards and two touchdowns in the Week 4 victory over Denver.
Our View: Johnson also compiled five receptions for no yards, but still made his PPR owners happy with those five extra points. In the past two games, LJ has compiled 52 carries for 319 yards and three touchdowns. He also showed he still has some burst with a 65-yard gallop in the game against the Broncos.
Edge hits pay dirt twice
Running back Edgerrin James carried the ball nine times for only 29 yards, but he scored two touchdowns in the Week 4 loss to New York.
Our View: James, who chipped in five receptions for 37 yards, scored for the first time since Week 17 of last season.
Rodgers may have separated shoulder
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers will undergo testing on his right shoulder on Sunday night or Monday morning. Rodgers tells the Green Bay Press-Gazette that he thinks he separated his shoulder but isn't sure.
Our View: We should know more within the next day or so. Even if it's a separation, Rodgers won't necessarily miss Week 5.
Coles surpasses century mark
Wide receiver Laveranues Coles caught eight passes for 105 yards and three touchdowns in the Week 4 win over Arizona.
Our View: After four games, Coles has compiled 257 receiving yards and four touchdowns.
Favre goes off in win over Arizona
Quarterback Brett Favre completed 24-of-34 passes for 289 yards with six touchdowns against one interception in the Week 4 victory over Arizona.
Our View: After four games Favre has thrown 12 touchdown passes, proving he still has a lot of juice in that right arm. It also appears that the chemistry issues between he and Laveranues Coles were greatly exaggerated, as Coles pulled in three of the scores.
Ocho Cinco scores in loss
The artist formerly known as Chad Johnson posted three receptions for 28 yards and a touchdown in the Week 4 loss to Cleveland.
Our View: Things were bad with Carson Palmer in the lineup, and worse this week without him. Johnson might have scored, but after four weeks he has only 116 receiving yards.
Huge day for Brees
Quarterback Drew Brees completed 23-of-35 passes for 363 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception in the Week 4 win over the 49ers.
Our View: Who needs Marques Colston and Jeremy Shockey, right? Brees has outings of 343, 363 and 421 passing yards through four games, and he remains an elite fantasy option.
Muhammad stars in win
Wide receiver Muhsin Muhammad caught eight passes for 147 yards and a touchdown in the Week 4 win over the Falcons.
Our View: Life sure is easier with Steve Smith on the other side, huh? Muhammad won't be a consistent fantasy contributor, but he can clearly still show up against weaker defenses.
