Examiner Fantasy Football Panel says week 4 belongs to Mr. Rodgers

The Examiner's fantasy football panel says stick with a quarterback when selecting the national "Pick Him" player and their favorite for week #4 is Green Bay's Aaron Rodgers.

Rodgers is a fantasy football favorite and for good reasons.  He's been one of the top five quarterbacks in scoring over the last three years.  The only item he was missing was a Super Bowl ring and he earned it earlier this ear by guiding the Packers to a win over the Steelers.

Green Bay's quarterback is fifth in fantasy football scoring with 66 points, but he's just a few points behind Detroit's Matthew Stafford and Carolina's Cam Newton. Rodgers will be facing a porous Denver Bronco defense that surrendered over 300 yards passing in weeks #2 and 3.

Here are the selections for week #4 as provided by the fantasy footbal experts at the Examiner.  Active links have been added to each panel member's name so you can access their fantasy football stories.

Last week Cincinnati Bengals Examiner Kevin Pool finisned on top among our panelists by leaning on quarterbacks Tom Brady and Andy Dalton.
