Alex Smith Poised For Big Week 5
6 years agoWashington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith has been serviceable in fantasy lineups so far, but he has a chance for an especially lucrative Week 5 against New Orleans. The Saints are allowing 311 yards per game through the air along with 11 passing touchdowns, both of which rank third worst in the NFL. What's more, the Monday night contest will be played in the Superdome, where the Saints normally exhibit the full potential of their offensive firepower. The door is open for a high-scoring affair here, with the added possibility that Washington will have to play catch-up. Look for Smith to take advantage of a porous Saints pass defense as the Redskins try to keep pace with Drew Brees and company.
