Broadcasting your QB, TE or D / ST initially is not the goal of fantastic football. But if you are weak in a position where you only have to create one player, recovering fantastic usable weeks can be a beneficial process. In the quarter-finals, quarter-finals and D / ST 12 typical teams, most of your league colleagues can not and should not have QB or D / ST backup. The shortage of position leaves the thread of renunciation flocking with plausible weekly start options based on their match and the expected game flow.
Simply, as quarterback and defense games are easier to predict and their production varies less than a week, fantasy owners have a head start in their leagues if they can broadcast. their positions (usually their defense) better than their opponents.
That's what this column is talking about. Here are your streamers of the week 3:
quarterfinals
Floor and ceiling: Ryan Fitzpatrick vs Steelers (81% available)
Nobody saw that coming. In two games against the Saints and Eagles, Ryan Fitzpatrick caught fire. During the first week against New Orleans, "Fitzmagic" threw 417 yards, four touchdowns and completed 75% of his passes. During the second week against Philadelphia, Fitzpatrick walked away against an even better defense: 402 yards, four touchdowns and an unrealistic 82% run rate.
Now, the regression of the landing arrives. In both of his nuclear performances, Fitzpatrick made a touchdown on 13.1% of his passes. The average landing rate over the last four years is 4.5%, while Fitzmagic's career rate is 4.4%. What's more, according to Next Gen Stats, Fitzpatrick's percentage completion in weeks 1 and 2 is 65% – but it's Actually finished 79 percent! The probability of completion of Next Gen Stats explains the difficulty (or not) of an attempt at success. For the most part, Fitzpatrick has been both deadly accurate and certainly lucky in his passes.
Still, it's not the week to leave the Fitzpatrick train.
In weeks 1 and 2, the Steelers gave a fantastic performance to QB6 at Tyrod Taylor and were demolished for six passes and a QB2 finish from Patrick Mahomes. Fitzpatrick will crash on Earth, but the Bucs have by far the best support team Fitzpatrick has played with. It's real. Fitzpatrick is one of the best quarterback players of Week 3, and easily the best streamer of the third week.
Deep: Mitchell Trubisky in Arizona (95% available)
Unlike Ryan Fitzpatrick, Mitchell Trubisky, Bears' second-year quarterback, did not take a quick start in the air. In weeks 1 and 2, Trubisky only got the 5.4-pass average for YPA (second at worst), while he had only 171 yards and 200 yards against the Packers and Seahawks, respectively . It's not as if Trubisky's receptors were not open either. According to Next Gen Stats, Trubisky has thrown only 13% of its throws so far. The average of the NFL is 16%.
Even though Trubisky was far from effective in weeks 1 and 2, he must be on the radar streaming during the third week against Arizona. To start the year, the Cards allowed Alex Smith and Jared Goff to compete against Alex Smith and Jared Goff. 73 percent of the passes thrown into Arizona's pass cover were completed, the seventh highest rate in the NFL. According to the next generation's statistics, the cards awarded a score of 104.6 (fifth highest), while only 9.7% of the shots in the cover were made in a tight window (the third). Trubisky is slightly held by the fantastic leagues and may face perhaps the worst team in the league this week.
Tight Ends
The beginning of the season was strange for the purposes of fantastic series. We have already lost Greg Olsen (foot) for several weeks and Delanie Walker (ankle) is on the injured list. Right now, Jared Cook (35.9), Jesse James (33.8) and Will Dissly (32.7) are the top three players in PPR after two games. Is not fantasy fun?
Seriously, however, most teams are already struggling in the end. The end of streaming is not the goal, but sharp owners without studs will have to turn to cable more than a few times this year for production. This week, there are three TEs worthy of the name:
Floor: Ben Watson in Atlanta (95% available)
Even at age 37, Ben Watson plays an important role in the Saints' attack. In weeks 1 and 2, Watson played 81% of New Orleans' offensive games and has already seen at least one red target in every game. Watson now receives Deion Jones and Keanu Neal-less Falcons defense in a shootout scheduled for week 3. Watson saw four targets in the first week (4/44) and five targets in the second week (3/19 reception).
Ceiling: Austin Hooper vs New Orleans (97% available)
It was a difficult start for the defense of the Saints. Against the Bucs and Browns, the Saints gave YPA an 11.4-point pass, scored 126.6 points on enemy QBs and forced the pressure on just 18 percent of the passes (fourth highest rate). low). Austin Hooper does not represent a big part of the Atlanta attack – he saw four and five targets in 1-2 weeks, respectively – but it's a free way to attack the air defense. hesitant New Orleans. Hooper has seen at least one red-zone target in every match up to now and is third behind Julio Jones and Mohamed Sanu on passing roads in Atlanta.
Deep: Vance McDonald and Jesse James in Tampa Bay (97% available)
After missing most of the pre-season and opening day, McDonald returned from a foot injury in the second week and then split his time with Jesse James. In its debut in 2018, McDonald fired five targets and crossed more tracks (34) than James (31). The two TE Steelers will probably cancel out for long-term fantasy, but if you're really desperate in the third week, McDonald's and James both have rising forecasts. The Bucs' High School only awarded 5/59 to the Saints TE of Week 1 and was beaten 15/151 against Zach Ertz and his replacement TE, Josh Perkins, in Week 2.
defenses
Floor: Chicago Bears D / ST at Arizona Cardinals (51% available)
The Chicago D / ST should not be available in any of the leagues. In two games, the Bears defense scored 14 and 17 fantastic points against Green Bay and Seattle, respectively. In fact, the pre-champion Bears with superstar Khalil Mack has made a spectacular start and almost perfect. Chicago leads all the teams in the sacks (10) and has limited Packers and Seahawks fouls, which are generally very powerful, at just 5.28 yards per game (11th). Now, they face a lifeless team of Arizona Cardinals who can not sustain the controls or move the ball effectively. Start them with a lot of confidence.
Ceiling: Dallas Cowboys D / ST Seattle Seahawks (90% available)
The Seahawks' offensive line has already yielded 12 astronomical bags in its first two games, allowing six sacks each in Denver and Chicago. Now, the Boys do not have Von Miller or Khalil Mack – the two best EDGE rushers in the NFL – after quarterback. But the seventh in Dallas, led by Demarcus Lawrence, has already imposed nine sacks (the second highest number) and granted only 29 offensive points (the third least) in weeks 1-2. In fact, the Dallas defense limited the Panthers and Giants to just 4.32 yards per game in their first two games – the league's second best result behind Baltimore (4.02 YPP allowed). The Cowboys' D / ST has a lot of potential at Week 3, but the only worry is that they play on the road. Over the last three years, visitor defenses have averaged -0.3 points lower than expectations while D / ST fantasies have only accumulated 6.1 points per game against the Seahawks during the last three seasons.
Deep: Browns D / ST Cleveland vs New York Jets on TNF (94% available)
Wait a second. The Browns … have a defense? In weeks 1 and 2, Cleveland was doing well, limiting Ben Roethlisberger and Drew Brees to a mediocre score of 79.3 pass (10th low), according to next-generation statistics. Now, the Browns have generated only 15 pressures – but they go home when they have a quarter under duress. Cleveland followed his four-bag performance and six-figure business during Week 1 with a three-bag throw on the road against Drew Brees' Saints. It's an impressive start. The Browns have limited enemy attacks to only 5.28 yards per game so far – the same clip as the Bears (11th rank). After being torched by the ball several times in 2017, Cleveland has only allowed one pass (out of seven attempts) of more than 20 air yards to complete in 1-2 weeks. Thursday night, the match is played against rookie Sam Darnold.
