Fantasy Football Week 3 Rankings & Start/Sit Advice
Week 3 Player Notes & Start/Sit Advice
Matthew Stafford (LAR) at ARI: Last year, Stafford threw a league-high 17 interceptions. Through two weeks, he has a league-high five interceptions. Stafford is volatile — but in his 23 games with the Rams (including playoffs) he has thrown for either 300-plus yards or multiple touchdowns 19 times. The Cardinals defense is No. 32 in dropback SR (59.1%), and Rams HC Sean McVay is 4-1-1 ATS vs. Cardinals HC Kliff Kingsbury.
Carson Wentz (WAS) vs. PHI: Wentz has a league-high 10 pass attempts of 20-plus yards downfield (per our Advanced QB Stats Report) as well as back-to-back games with 300 yards and multiple touchdowns passing. He could have a pass-heavy game script as a +4 underdog (at BetMGM) in the long-awaited #RevengeGame against his former team.
Jimmy Garoppolo (SF) at DEN: Since joining the 49ers in 2017, Garoppolo is No. 4 with a 0.144 EPA + CPOE — behind only Patrick Mahomes, Drew Brees and Deshaun Watson and directly ahead of Aaron Rodgers — and last year he was No. 4 with an 8.1 AY/A. In the secondary, the Broncos could be without No. 1 CB Patrick Surtain (shoulder) and will definitely be without No. 1 S Justin Simmons (quad, IR). The 49ers are +1 underdogs (at Caesars) …
