Bryce McRae's Week 5 fantasy football matchups

October 9, 2009 @ 20:00:00

By Bryce McRae

Key Matchup	Reason
Reggie Wayne, WR, IND vs. Cortland Finnegan, CB, TEN	TEN ground game should control clock; TEN secondary almost healthy, should cut down big mistakes
Daunte Culpepper, QB, DET vs. Pittsburgh Steelers secondary	Steelers D vulnerable through the air; DET QB playing with something to prove after odd man out in camp
Chris Henry, WR, CIN vs. Chris Carr, CB, BAL	Henry has the height advantage here; QB Carson Palmer has played well against BAL D in the past
Sean P. Ryan, TE, KC vs. Dallas Cowboys LBs	Two TDs in a row for Ryan? Shown chemistry with QB and Dallas missing S Gerald Sensabaugh
Glen Coffee, RB, SF vs. Atlanta Falcons front seven	Coffee's 2.3 YPC needs a jolt; SF should emphasize the run against weakened ATL run defense
