Fantasy Football's Three S's for Success in Week One

The three S’s for Success are a star, starter, and sleeper you need to play or stay away from to ensure you have a great fantasy football week. Keep in mind that you must always put your best team out there every week, so don’t blindly follow any information you read on the net!

After you read the three S’s, be sure to watch my Fantasy Football Week One Starts & Sits (click the link) on YouTube Video.

Star

Start: Kurt Warner vs. San Francisco

There are a lot of doubters out there surrounding Arizona and Warner following their Super Bowl appearance, but the Cards haven't found their run game yet, which means the ball will be in his hands for week one.

LoStradamus prediction: 315 passing yards and four TDs.

Sit: Chris Johnson vs. Pittsburgh

Depending on your bench you may stick with Johnson, but he is facing a Steelers defense that gave up a high of 106 rushing yards at home last year, and they're looking for redemption for the infamous towel stomp.

LoStradamus prediction: 65 total yards.

Starter

Start: Reggie Bush vs. Detroit

With Pierre Thomas and Jammal Brown recovering from injuries, the Saints will be relying on the dynamic Bush to do work out of the backfield.

LoStradamus prediction: 125 total yards and two TDs.

Sit: Larry Johnson vs. Baltimore

I am a big fan of Larry Johnson in 2009, which is why I have him sitting on the bench on quite a few rosters. Nobody stuffs the run better than the Ravens, especially at home.

LoStradamus prediction: 35 total yards.

Sleeper

Start: Ray Rice vs. Kansas City

While LJ will be hitting the brick wall, Rice should be showing fans why many have him as their sleeper of the year. KC won't have many answers for the run, and Rice can surprise in the passing game.

LoStradamus prediction: 150 total yards and one TD.

Start: Hakeem Nicks vs. Washington

If NYG is worried about the Skins' new informant, then they are scheming up some new plays right now. Nothing hurts more than a big play in the passing game, and Nicks is deceptive in the open field.

LoStradamus prediction: Six receptions, 89 yards, and one TD
