Cam Newton is an undroppable in most fantasy leagues, and it’s probably a good thing, too, considering most impetuous fantasy enthusiasts would at least consider dropping him after another disappointing game in Week 5. Like you’re sitting around, drinking a few beers, watching Dexter after the Sunday night game and thinking, “(expletive) it, I’m done with this guy.”

Each week, we’ll take a look at how Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III stack up against the 2011 breakout performance of Cam Newton. ————————————————————————————————————————————– Andrew Luck vs. Cam Newton ————————————————————————————————————————————– Andrew Luck led his team to a 30-27 victory over the Green Bay Packers. After a slow offensive start in the first half, the Colts scored 19 straight points and capped off their comeback with a 4-yard Reggie Wayne touchdown to take the lead. The rookie QB also rushed for 24 yards and earned his first rushing touchdown of the season.

Michael Shanahan once again went with Alfred Morris … what are you trying to do to us Shanny? Sometimes I feel like Bobby “The Brain” Heenan pre-Bash at the Beach in 1996, trying to warn everybody of Hulk Hogan.

But dang, that RG3 can play, too, right? More on the Redskins in a minute, let’s get to it.

When it comes to fashion, our NFL stars might not go all out like their NBA counterparts. If the September issue of GQ is any indication, however, we are going to see more style off the field this season. Here’s the best fashion from Week 1:

Buffalo Bills running back Fred Jackson is expected to miss three to four weeks. Is C.J. Spiller really worth targeting?

So let me see if I have this straight, Mike Shanahan said Alfred Morris was going to start for his team and then he went out and had the most carries of the weekend? Surprisingly, that’s not the biggest Washington Redskins’ story of the weekend.

Doug Williams became the first post-merger African-American quarterback selected in round one of the NFL draft in 1978 when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers grabbed the Grambling State signal caller with the 17th pick.

Cam Newton and Robert Griffin III were drafted No. 1 and No. 2 overall, respectively, in the past two NFL drafts.

Expectations for Andrew Luck are high, but can he match Cam Newton 2011 season.

Michael Vick is on record supporting comparisons between himself and Robert Griffin III. RG3’s Washington Redskins teammate, London Fletcher, agrees with that assessment and adds one more player to the evaluation.
