Fantasy Football: Weather Forecasts Across The League For Week One
Happy Week One Sunday!
We’ve got a full slate of games and a few Fantasy Football storylines to go along with each one.
Here we gooooo!
1PM EST Games..
Arizona at New Orleans:
Weather: Dome
Fantasy Players to watch: Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. will be trying to get the Cardinals to the next level this year, in a very winnable NFL West. The Saints had the 30th ranked defense last year (story HERE).
Miami at Indianapolis:
Weather: Dome
Fantasy Players to watch: I like Jaylen Waddle and Tua Tagovailoa. Tyreek Hill and De’Von Achane are banged up and the Colts didn’t do well against the past last year (story HERE).
Las Vegas Raiders at the New England Patriots:
Weather: Partly cloudy. Chance of rain.
Fantasy Players to watch: We’re going to learn if Ashton Jeanty was indeed a high first round pick for running back starved fantasy owners. Especially so if it rains.
Pittsburgh Steelers at New York Jets:
Weather: Low 70s. Partly cloudy but expected to clear
Fantasy Players to watch: Jaylen Warren and Bryce Hall will be in a lot of line ups, with but their respective quarterbacks, Aaron Rodgers and Justin Fields both playing their ex teams and looking to make a difference, will it matter?
New York Giants At Washington Commanders:
Weather: Sunny and in the 70s
Fantasy Players to watch: Malik Nabers was cleared to go on Friday and will be a WR1 in every traditional league.
Carolina Panthers at the Jacksonville Jaguars:
Weather: Possible Thunderstorms in Duval County
Fantasy Players to watch: Travis Hunter will be an every down receiver and could make big plays against a Panthers defense that gave up the most TDs in the air last season (story HERE)
If it showers, then a fast start could be out of the question.
Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns:
Weather: Possible chance of showers and temps in the 60s.
Fantasy Players to watch: Ja’marr Chase is the #1 ranked player in Fantasy Football this year. Will he come through? Even if it rains, Burrow will try to get him involved.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Atlanta Falcons:
Weather: Dome
Fantasy Football Players to watch: The Falcons Bijan Robinson was top five for many owners and how will Bucky Irving respond to his higher ranking as a Fantasy RB?
4PM EST Games:
San Francisco 49ers at the Seattle Seahawks:
Weather: Chance of showers and low 70s
Fantasy Footall Players to watch: With Christian McCaffrey having injury troubles again, Brian Robinson will be a name to consider as a replacement for the Niners. And players are bullish on Kenneth Walker III. And if it rains, then running the ball becomes paramount.
Tennessee Titans at the Denver Broncos:
Weather: 80s and sunny with an isolated storm chance
Fantasy Football Players To watch: Cam Ward making his rookie start shouldn’t be on a lot of starting line ups but there are some outliers who have him making big plays for Tennessee. Troy Franklin is expected to be a featured receiver for the Broncos
Detroit Lions at the Green Bay Packers:
Weather: I live here. It’s gorgeous. Sunny and in the mid 60
Fantasy Players to watch: Matthew Golden will be expected to be a prime target for Jordan Love. Jamhyr Gibbs is also starting on a lot of fantasy rosters.
Houston Texans at Los Angeles Rams:
Weather: Dome
Fantasy Players to watch: Jaylin Noel and Jayden Higgins are expected to see more snaps after Christian Kirk was ruled out for this week’s opener and maybe longer.
Baltimore Ravens at the Buffalo Bills:
Weather: Clear and in the 50s
Fantasy Players to watch: Two of the biggest QBs in Fantasy Footbal and the NFL square off again. Lamar Jackson vs. Josh Allen
Monday Night:
Minnesota Vikings at the Chicago Bears:
Weather: Check back Monday
Players to watch: Justin Jefferson should be a WR1 everywhere, and D’Andre Swift will be expected to deliver for owners and for Chicago.
