Fantasy football start/sit, Week 5: Eli Manning worth starting

It was really easy to pick on New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning. He just got a mega contract, he's on TV for commercials, his brother is Peyton and he had a massive choke job in Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys.

Now, it's a little different. The Giants have won two games in a row and a lot of it has to do with Eli. In his last two games, Manning has thrown five scores and turned the ball over just once. He also had a bad matchup mixed in there against the Buffalo Bills.

This week, he gets a great matchup at home against the San Francisco 49ers, who are the 11th-best matchup for fantasy quarterbacks. For some inexplicable reason, they were able to keep Aaron Rodgers in check, but the Arizona Cardinals and Pittsburgh Steelers tore them up in Weeks 2 and 3.
