Falcons OC Dirk Koetter said Julio Jones' hand was not 100 percent and it hindered him in Week 4, but that shouldn't be a problem this week.Fantasy Spin:Jones faces a Redskins defense which is yielding 326 ypg. He should get his fair share of the targets and both Jones and Roddy White should have big days.

Falcons' Gonzalez has career day vs. Redskins
For the first time since the Atlanta Falcons joined the NFL in 1966, they have reached 5-0 to start a season and after a 24-17 comeback victory at Washington, they mainly owe it to their oldest player, the one who says this season will most likely be his last tight end Tony Gonzalez.
The 36-year-old, 16-year veteran arguably was the best player on the field on Sunday, as he caught...

It wasn't all good news and moonbows coming out of Sunday's win over the Washington Redskins. Unfortunately, the Falcons may be missing Stephen Nicholas against the Raiders.
Nicholas had a lights-out start to the reason and has remained a terrific starter for the Falcons throughout the first five games, so this would be a pretty significant loss. At the moment, he has 39...

Love/Hate for Week 5:
QB:
Love- Ok I get it, picking Matt “Matty Ice” Ryan may seem like a cop out, but I can’t help it. Matt Ryan has really turned it on this season, going from a mid Tier 2 QB to a full-blown elite Tier 1 QB. In the vast majority of fantasy leagues, Ryan is among the top three QBs in scoring. He has 11 TDs so far and he’s averaging close to 300...
