Disclaimer: For any fantasy scoring numbers, I will be using those generated by Yahoo! fantasy football. It is the system on which I’ve played a majority of my fantasy football over the years – and currently play. Other setups are fine – I’ve worked with ESPN and NFL fantasy football teams in the past – but seeing as I have the most experience using this scoring system, I’ll stick with using their methods of scoring.

After an early bye week, the Green Bay Packers get back to work in Week 5.

Their matchup this time is the New York Giants, a team that has caused them problems in the past (including playoff upsets over a 13-3 Packers team in 2007 and a 15-1 Green Bay team in 2011) and sports a combination of explosive offensive pieces, a defense with many high-dollar acquisitions, and are helmed by former longtime Green Bay coach Ben McAdoo .

How will this contest turn out for you fantasy players out there?

Let’s look at each position.
