Last week was a fantasy owners dream if you had any players in the Seahawks-49ers, Broncos-Chargers, Eagles-Cowboy games.
They lit up the scoreboard like it was the Fourth of the July and I'm sure there were some very high point totals in leagues of every format.
But week 3 may not be the same.
Today we'll take a look at each game on this week's schedule to give you our initial impressions of whom we think might shine and who might struggle based upon the matchups.
Tomorrow we'll still have our Start or Sit column, but this helps out just as much because not everyone we like makes it onto that list.
And don't forget, each week we'll field your questions regarding lineups, trades, start or sit, waiver wire and everything else you could possibly come up with that has to do with fantasy football.
If you'd like to submit a question, shoot us an email at molsen@chicagosuntimes.com and we'll do our best to get back to you even if it doesn't make it onto the site as apart of the column.
