Hey, fantasy football fans! Week 3 is here, and things are starting to get real serious. As we dive into the season, decisions are becoming tougher. Do you keep hoping for a once-unstoppable superstar, or do you throw in a wild card? With injuries hitting hard and bench players stepping up, it’s all about finding the hidden gems to help you snag that victory!
First off, let’s chat about the running back situation in Cincinnati. It’s been a bumpy ride for the guys over there. The notable name, Moss, has stepped into the lead role, but honestly, it feels like they’re all just kind of spinning their wheels. In Week 1, Moss saved face with a touchdown but only managed to rack up nine carries for 44 yards — not exactly earth-shattering. Fast forward to Week 2, and he had 12 carries for a meager 34 yards, scoring just 5.2 fantasy points. Ouch!
Now, he’s out-touched Chase Brown 24 to 10, so he’s getting the opportunities, but what’s the point if the production is lacking? This week, Moss has a chance to flip the script. They’re facing off against Washington, who just let Devin Singletary waltz through their defense for 95 yards on 16 carries. If there was ever a moment for Moss to shine, this is it. What’s better than a great matchup to wake up a slumping player?
Next up: the Rams. Oh boy, what a rollercoaster! I’m really trying to believe in a Rams receiver, especially after the buzz around Puka Nacua and our old pal Cooper Kupp. But with both of them sidelined, what’s the best we’ve got? Enter Robinson. The Rams are gearing up to face the 49ers, and while their defense is fierce, they’ve been known to slip a little. Just take a look at Week 1 when Allen Lazard found the end zone twice! And let’s not forget about Justin Jefferson’s impressive outing in Week 2.
Robinson could potentially give you that extra boost, but here’s the catch: it all hangs on the offensive line. With a couple of players on IR, can they give Stafford enough time to find him? Left tackle Alaric Jackson is back, but will it be enough? Robinson might be more of a gamble than a sure thing, leaning more towards “break” than “make.”
Now, let’s shine a light on Brian Thomas in Jacksonville. He’s off to a strong start, averaging 11.55 fantasy points per game and sitting comfortably as WR25. While he’s been doing his thing, flexing him could be a risky play this week against Buffalo. The Jaguars aren’t passing the ball a whole lot, so while he’s making plays, he’s also super volatile. But hey, isn’t that what fantasy football is all about?
Speaking of volatility, let’s discuss our buddy Amari Cooper. Talk about a rough start! He’s struggling out there, sporting a lowly 33% catch rate. With Watson not finding his rhythm, Cooper’s precious targets are being chewed up by Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore. The Browns are up against the Giants this week, which on paper, sounds like a golden opportunity for Cooper. But do we trust him enough to start? If you have better options, you might want to consider pausing before putting him in your lineup.
Last but not least, let’s take a peek at Mike Gesicki in Cincinnati. He had a nice outing in Week 2 with seven catches for 91 yards. There’s a chance that he can be a consistent tight end option for you, especially in a barren tight end landscape. Although Tee Higgins’ return could shake things up, Gesicki’s role seems solid for now. Pair that with a favorable matchup against Washington, and he might just be the diamond in the rough you’re looking for!
So there you have it! Week 3 is packed with decisions that might make or break your fantasy teams. From running backs to tight ends, it’s all about balancing your risks and being smart about those lineups. Good luck out there! May the fantasy odds be ever in your favor!
