We're approaching Week 6 of the 2012 fantasy football season, and unless your team is protected by some sort of magical force field, you're probably dealing with a few key injuries. No fantasy owner would think less of you for shedding some tears over the state of Cedric Benson's foot or Aaron Hernandez's ankle. Still, don't spend too much time in the fetal position—even the most competitive leagues are sure to have a few potential stars on the waiver wire.
While there aren't as many marquee games as last week, we have several intriguing matchups to look forward to this weekend. Saturday features four games between ranked opponents, including one top 10 game in the SEC. Additionally, 14 of the 22 ranked teams in action this weekend are playing road or neutral-site games. So this could be another weekend to be on upset alert.
Here is what to watch for this week in the top 25.
I was at the game Sunday and it really did look like the Buffalo Bills simply gave up in the fourth quarter. One thing that really sticks out in my mind is while waiting to get past security, a Patriots fan yelled, "Who did you beat? Cleveland and KC? Whipity Doo!" I thought, good point.

Want to know what my predictions are for the New York Jets and the rest of the season? To quote the great Bill Murray “I'll give you a prediction.

Week 5 for the Gang Green will not be pleasant. Here's our game preview for The New York Jets vs The Houston Texans.
On the heels of losing their best defensive and overall player with Darrelle Revis, it looks like another Jet has been grounded. It was reported by the New York Daily News and the AP that Santonio Holmes will miss the rest of season due to a foot injury. Holmes apparently suffered a Lisfranc injury.
