Week 5 Power Rankings, Part 3

Coming in at #6 - Wacco For Flacco
Nobody loves Adrian Peterson more than our #6, but even so the rest of the roster doesn't quite fill out with the same oomph.  Jonathan Stewart is inherently inconsistent thus far, and plays for a horrible team which doesn't help matters much, not to mention his real and fantasy teammate Steve Smith and his current high ankle sprain issues.  Miles Austin and Roddy White are strong performers  no doubt, but when Flacco and McNabb aren't heaving it with regular success every week it makes things a little iffy.  Injuries and inconsistencies seem to be running through the league and this team is not immune, but expect good things in the near future here as they will be creeping up the standings.

Coming in at #5 - Angry Asians
The Angry Asians have faced a tough schedule in reaching the 2-2 mark, and they have been putting up points fairly consistently through solid running backs, surprising success at quarterback, and especially tight end play.  Michael Vick going down hurts this squad immensely, so it will be a big test to see if Big Ben returning is just in time, or just not enough to fill the gap.  Studs Chris Johnson, Anquan Boldin, and Antonio Gates should continue producing on a regular basis, but without a bona fide signal caller it will be a question as to just how strong this team can be.  Expect positive things, but a tough road in a tough division for this perennial contender.

See you tomorrow as we get serious in cracking the top half of the power rankings!
