Week five of Fantasy Football kicked-off this weekend with one controversy that still has everybody talking. Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel was sacked on a play and ultimately suffered a concussion.
Apparently while he was lying on the ground fans starting cheering while he was being attended to from the medical staff.
New York Jets have been dealing with their quarterback controversy all season. Whether to go with Mark Sanchez, who has not been producing or as productive as most thought, or Tim Tebow, who is still learning the ways of the NFL, has been one of their main struggles on the team. This week though they decided to use both.
The Jets were playing the undefeated Houston Texans on Monday Night Football. They put up a good fight, but ended up falling to the Texans 23-17. Sanchez played one of the best games he has had in a while. He passed for over 200 yards and had one touchdown.
The 49ers’ defense had another strong outing on Sunday Oct. 7 holding the Bills to just 3 points. The offense exploded for 45 points to top the Bills and earn their fourth win of the season.
