NFL Predictions Week 5: Calvin Johnson and 10 Elite WRs Who Will Shine

When looking ahead to Week 5 of the NFL schedule, it's clear that many of the top receivers in the game have good matchups.

Here's a look at some of the elite receivers who will shine again in Week 5: 

Calvin Johnson, Lions

It doesn't matter how many players you stick on Megatron, he's coming down with the football. Matt Stafford must love having that luxury in the red zone. Can Johnson make it 5-for-5 in games with two receiving touchdowns?

Wes Welker, Patriots

The Jets have been good against the pass in 2011, but who's to think anyone can stop Welker from getting the football? He's been the best receiver in football outside of Johnson through four weeks. 

Vincent Jackson, Chargers

Only the Patriots are worse against opposing receivers than the Broncos. Look for Philip Rivers to go to Jackson early and often against their AFC West rival.

Greg Jennings, Packers

Aaron Rodgers and Jennings have a special connection, and no matter how many weapons the Packers throw at you, Rodgers is going to find Jennings. We all know what happened the last time the Packers were in Atlanta, right?

Steve Smith, Panthers

Rejuvenated by the emergence of Cam Newton, Smith's playmaking ability is back in focus. With the Panthers likely to be trailing, Smith is sure to get plenty of targets.

Brandon Lloyd, Broncos

Does any receiver in the game have as sticky of hands as Lloyd? Anything thrown within his catching radius is a reception. The only hope the Broncos have is if Kyle Orton finds Lloyd with big plays.

Larry Fitzgerald, Cardinals

Minnesota was shredded by the Chiefs receivers to the tune of 244 yards last week. In Fitzgerald's return to his home state, he'll make sure that misery extends another week. 

Roddy White, Falcons

The Packers have given up the 30th most fantasy points to receivers in the NFL, and they've yet to keep a unit under 190 yards for a game. That should mean White has another big day against Green Bay at home. 

Santonio Holmes, Jets

No team has allowed more yards to opposing receivers than the Patriots, and while Mark Sanchez was awful in Baltimore, he should recover Sunday. 

Hakeem Nicks, Giants

Probably the most underrated receiver in the game, Nicks continues to post huge numbers for the Giants. Did anyone even notice his 10-catch, 162-yard week against the Cards?
