Manning Looks Strong in Week 2

After a solid performance in week one against the vaunted Steeler defense, Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning looks set to continue his success in week two. Manning has the weapons (Thomas, Decker, Tamme) and a strong ground game to succeed and appears to be plenty rust free. His fastball may have lost a little zip, but his football IQ is as high as ever. While opposing defenses play the guessing game trying to figure out what Manning can still do, he'll continue to take advantage of doing what he knows he can.

The Broncos will face a tough Falcon defense and a loud Atlanta crowd, but there's nothing the savvy veteran Manning hasn't seen. He's a lock for another solid outing in week two, maybe not monster numbers against a secondary that allowed 240 yards in the air a week ago, but solid. Manning should be good for somewhere in the neighborhood of 240 yards Monday night with a couple of scores; he's definitely worthy of top 10 fantasy consideration this week.

My take: Needless to say, I like Manning a lot this week.
