Week 3 Fantasy Football Key Questions: Best Matchups, Rankings & Lineup Decisions (Ep. 2221)

Ryan Wormeli, Pat Fitzmaurice and Derek Brown tackle the biggest fantasy football questions for Week 3, starting with the Chargers' struggling offense, Bryce Young's hot start and a favorable spot for Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson.

The guys also revisit Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, break down Bucky Irving's matchup with Minnesota and sort through several injury-driven lineup decisions across the Sunday slate.

With two weeks of data to work with, Wormeli, Fitz and D-Bro separate meaningful trends from early-season noise before lineups lock.
