Joe Flacco outscored Patrick Mahomes in Week 4.

That was a good representation of the type of things that happened in the final games of September, which shows you that even the best players can let you down once in a while.

Yes, we dealt with way too many useless touchdowns (Foster Moreau? Really?) and an ugly prime-time battle between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals, but at least we got some strong efforts from the sleepers.

Last week's article featured Jacoby Brissett (QB5), Darrel Williams (RB12), T.J. Yeldon (RB29) and Will Dissly (TE2). Playing the matchups (Brissett and Dissly) worked out well, and Yeldon was a busy receiver with the Buffalo Bills playing from behind in the second half.

This week's sleepers will include some names who will likely make you cringe or question why they are featured, like Tyler Eifert, but it's important to trust the matchups and opportunities that should be available for these players. It's not all about talent.
