g like 2016 David Johnson. The Rams defense has not only replaced the Seahawks as the NFC's most dominant unit Gerald Everett Jersey , but may be the best the NFL has to offer.Week 3 will go a long way toward helping fantasy football owners decide how those clear early observations play out. Mahomes, Johnson and the Rams defense are certain starts, but the same can't be said for some others whose fate will hinge on the faith of their owners.START: Ryan Fitzpatrick, QB, Buccaneers: FitzMagic's next act won't be too hard as the Steelers defense looks easily disappears. Pittsburgh is 31st in fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks and will have to contend with the withering assault that will come from Fitzpatrick firing the ball to the likes of Mike Evans, O.J. Howard and DeSean Jackson. Mahomes' historic start is the only reason that Fitzpatrick's 699 yards and eight touchdowns aren't the story of fantasy football. Playing Fitzpatrick on Monday night will give his owners plenty of confidence in pulling out a Week 3 victory.SIT: Aaron Rodgers, QB, Packers: Seriously. The threat of his injured knee giving way blends in with a road game against a Redskins defense that has allowed 161 passing yards per game and a mere 5.1 yards per attempt. Rodgers saw his Week 1 fantasy output nearly cut in half by the Vikings last week and the Redskins will be focused on forcing him to make plays on his bad leg. Under normal circumstances, Rodgers is a must-start on a weekly basis, yet there's too much risk in play with his injury. Those who have a QB2 who is healthy and has a favorable matchup may want to go in that direction.START: Matt Breida, RB, 49ers: He's not going to repeat his 12.5 yards per carry from last week against the Lions, but Breida is in line for another big afternoon against a Chiefs defense that is giving up yardage in big chunks. While Kansas City is seventh overall versus the run John Kelly Jersey , its inability to stop pass-catching backs is why it's 30th in fantasy points allowed per game to opposing runners. Alfred Morris will still get his touches but in a game with two bad defenses, Brieda is the clear choice, especially in point-per-reception (PPR) formats.SIT: Dalvin Cook, RB, Vikings: A hamstring issue led Cook to miss practice on Wednesday and with a battered Bills defense on the Sunday docket, this could lead Minnesota to either put him on a tight "pitch count" in favor of Latavius Murray or have him sit out. Buffalo is 29th in fantasy points allowed per game against opposing backs, making Cook a tempting play, but don't be surprised if the Vikings play the long-term game and make Murray an intriguing flex option.START: Corey Clement, RB, Eagles: It's unlikely that Jay Ajayi and/or Darren Sproles will be available against the Colts, making Clement a sneaky good start in PPR leagues. Clement caught five passes for 55 yards and a touchdown in last week's loss against the Buccaneers and gets a meaty matchup against Indianapolis. The Colts are allowing 11 catches and 93 yards per game to opposing running backs. With Nelson Agholor and Zach Ertz as the only reliable options in the Philadelphia passing game, look for the returning Carson Wentz to help get Clement 12-15 touches as a dual threat.SIT: Corey Davis, WR John Franklin-Myers Jersey , Titans: Quarterback Marcus Mariota's status remains in question, which means Blaine Gabbert will again be cast into the role of game manager for a run-heavy attack. It doesn't help Davis' cause that he'll see plenty of All-Pro corner Jalen Ramsey much of the afternoon. The Jaguars are ninth in fantasy points allowed per game to opposing receivers and if Gabbert is indeed the starter, don't count on Davis putting up big numbers.START: Keelan Cole, WR, Jaguars: Leonard Fournette should return to the lineup, but it shouldn't keep Cole from having a solid encore performance after last week's seven-catch, 116-yard outing against the Patriots that included his first touchdown of the season. Cole has caught 10 of his 12 targets in the early going and has shown his big-play skills, having pulled in four passes of 20-plus yards. Tennessee has allowed a staggering 70 percent completion rate to opposing passers and if the Titans put too much focus on slowing down Fournette, Cole and Blake Bortles will be able to put up solid numbers.SIT: Tyler Eifert, TE, Bengals: C.J. Uzomah is beginning to steal targets from Eifert and it doesn't help his cause that the Panthers have been solid when it comes to containing opposing tight ends. Eifert could have red zone potential, but the Bengals will look to exploit a Carolina defense that is 28th in completion percentage (73.7) by using running back Gio Bernard to help take attention off A.J. Green.START: Matthew Stafford, QB Brian Allen Jersey , Lions: Detroit is 30th in rushing, which is more reason for Stafford to fire away against a New England defense that was scorched by Blake Bortles last week. The Pats have allowed 276 passing yards per game and Stafford comes off a 347-yard, three-TD performance in the loss at the 49ers. This should also be a good game to play Lions receiver Kenny Golladay, who has seemingly passed by Marvin Jones and could have a huge Sunday night.SIT: Josh Gordon, WR, Patriots: Tom Brady will get to deploy his latest weapon on Sunday night, but Gordon won't be on the field enough to justify starting him. Gordon will probably get 15-20 plays, which means he will get three to four targets with at least one a downfield shot. It will be best to wait a game or two before going all-in with Gordon, whose upside has never looked better now that he is with a franchise who can help him mature on and off the field.NFL fans think the Los Angeles Rams are the best team in the NFL Welcome to SB Nation FanPulse — a survey of fans across the NFL, powered by SurveyMonkey.

The Rams’ offense is marvelous. The team is 5-0, and just about every fan base is wondering who the next Sean McVay is.If anything, it’s just a good reminder that we’re far removed from 14 consecutive losing seasons.Bask in the glow, kids.Game time!Odds: Rams 7 point favorites over Denver BroncosTurf Show Times FanPulse: Rams by 9Mile High Report FanPulse: Rams by 14A bit of a weird factor here that while Rams fans are understandably confident about the state of affairs (again hitting 100% this week in our FanPulse vote), Broncos fans are apoplectic. Denver as a franchise has been extremely successful over the last 40 years building up a huge fan base that isn’t very used to losing. After a 5-11 season in 2017 and a 2-3 start to this year, Broncos fans are pretty upset coming off of an embarrassing effort against the New York Jets. While Rams fans’ confidence is riding high, Broncos fans’ confidence has plummeted:From 93% to 4%...whew.Maybe more interesting is how they spread out the blame for the current state of affairs:Consider how different that is from Dallas Cowboys fans and how they see the responsibility shared:In the end, FanPulse is telling us what we already know...It’s a good time to be a Rams fans right now.As always, thanks as always to the TSTers who are voting to give us the data each week!
