Must Starts
1. Aaron Rodgers - The loss of RB Ryan Grant means the Packers will be throwing the ball even more. Expect Rodgers to have a huge game in Soldier Field on MNF and he is the top ranked fantasy football QB in Week 3.
2. Peyton Manning – Manning will pass all over the Broncos this Sunday to the tune of 300 yards and 3TDs. If CB Champ Bailey is potentially out with injury, maybe more.
3. Tony Romo - The Cowboys are off to an awful starts but now face a team that has given up over 400 passing yards in the 1st two weeks of the season. Expect a big game out of Romo and Co. and over 300 yards and 3 TDs.
4. Tom Brady – Brady has always feasted on the Bills over the course of his career. Look for him to find WR Randy Moss and WR Wes Welker all afternoon for 300 yards and 3 TDs.
Next In Line
Joe Flacco - The season hasn’t started out for Flacco fantasy owners as they hoped it would, but this week is a chance to get healthy. Look for Joe Flacco to torch the Browns secondary to the tune of 250 yards and 2 TDs.
Matt Schaub - The Cowboys secondary was burned by Jay Cutler on Sunday and Schaub is coming off a 497 yard game. Look for a huge effort against the Cowboys.
Donovan McNabb – McNabb put up over 400 yards against the Texans and will have another fine afternoon when heading to St. Louis.
Rounding out the list
Drew Brees – The loss of RB Reggie Bush hurts, but Brees is adept at spreading the ball around and will put up numbers and points against the Falcons.
Eli Manning - Eli will have a healthy Hakeem Nicks back in the lineup and will throw for 250 yards and 2 TDs against the Titans.
Brett Favre - The lack of receiving threats hurts Favre, but these are the Lions. Expect a bounce back with over 225 yards and a few TDs.
Phillip Rivers - The Chargers passing game found its rhythm against the lowly Jags and we expect Rivers to continue that trend against the Seahawks.
Michael Vick - Vick earned the starting job outright with his play against the Lions and faces a less than formidable opponent in the Jags on Sunday.
Jay Cutler - The Packers D has been tough on opposing QBs but the Bears will be winging it on Monday Night. Look for a solid fantasy stat line from Cutler with at least 2 TDs.
Fantasy Sleeper of the Week
Matt Ryan - This could be a high scoring game and the Falcons might be with a less than 100% RB Michael Turner. If so, we like Ryan to top 250 yards with 3 TDs and is an excellent fantasy sleeper in Week 3.
