Week 3 Preview! Go Deep!

It's Saturday night which means only one thing... NFL Sunday Football is just one night's sleep away. Hope everyone's fantasy teams are set for tomorrow and if they're not, here's a little. Let's dive right into this.

Let's start off by pointing some awards from Week 2 :

MVP: Aaron Rodgers

This was a tough one to choose but numbers do not lie. The guy was nearly perfect, completing 34/42 passes with zero interceptions. Pretty good day at work, not to mention his 4 touchdown passes in his efforts to lead the Packers to a 38-20 win over the Redskins.

34/42, 480 yards, 4 TD's 0 INT's

Congrats to @AaronRodgers12 on being named NFC Offensive Player of the Week after scorching the Redskins for 480 yards and FOUR touchdowns.

Bust: Ray Rice (BAL)

Not just the bust for Week 2, but so far this year! He is not putting up the point he is expected to. With a disappointed game in Week 1, only scoring 12 fantasy points (ESPN) he dropped even more with only 1 fantasy point, that's right, one. As one of the most versatile RB's in the league, these are not the performances you expect from him, and people aren't too happy with him.

13 rushes, 36 yards, 0 TD's

Well I lost this week. Thanks ray rice. 1st round bust…

Sleeper: Sam Bradford
The Rams are coming into to town, so fans know they will see big things from, Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Steven Jackson, but Sam Bradford changed the mood a little bit in Atlanta. Expecting to get blown out, Bradford almost led his Rams to victory.

32/55 352 yards, 3 TD's 1 INT, 0 Sacks

@STLouisRams Sam Bradford completed 32/55 passes for 352 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT. 7th career 300-yard passing game

Week 3 predictions:

Star of the Week: Matthew Stafford (DET)

I could have easily chosen Rodgers or Manning here but I could not pass up on Stafford going up against the horrendous Redskins pass defense. With 635 yards through two games so far, don't be surprised if he breaks 1,000 yards after Week 3.

Prediction: 31-45, 400 yards, 3 TD's

Sleeper of the Week: Joique Bell (DET)

With Reggie Bush ailing a knee injury and questionable for this week's game, Bell will get more carries regardless if Bush plays or not. And it is not like Bell doesn't get carries before, just expect more touches for him, especially near the goal line.

Prediction: 18 carries, 100 yards, 2 total TD's


Bold Prediction: 
Brian Hoyer (CLE) will throw for over 250 yards, and beat the Vikings. Can't I just be the first one to predict that?


And 1-3 players that will shine this week

Calvin Johnson (DET)
Marshawn Lynch (SEA)
Trent Richardson (IND)
