Fantasy Football Week Three Start 'Em & Sit 'Em Rankings

Whether you're 2-0, 1-1, or 0-2, you need to remember that there's a lot of football still to be played. I mean, I don't know about your league, but the ones I'm a part of don't hand out a trophy after just two weeks of play.

Nope, you're in it for the long haul, whether you like it or not. As such, 14 (or 15, depending on whether you bother to use Week 17) more weeks of crucial lineup decisions need to be made, but, as always, we are here to help you through it.

So, take a gander at the Week Three Start 'Em & Sit 'Em report below.

QUARTERBACKS - START 'EM

Jay Cutler (Denver Broncos) vs. New Orleans

After two weeks of the NFL season, it's not Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Tony Romo, or Drew Brees dominating the statistical passing categories. Nope, it's Denver's young gun, Jay Cutler, who leads the NFL with 650 passing yards and shares a tie of the league lead with Philip Rivers with six touchdowns.

Cutler should easily add to both those totals this Sunday as the Broncos draw the 28th-ranked pass defense in the New Orleans Saints for Week Three. Cutler needs to be in your fantasy lineup for this one and perhaps from here on out. No excuses.

JT O'Sullivan (San Francisco 49ers) vs. Detroit

After Week One, it looked like the San Francisco 49ers made a mistake going with O'Sullivan as their starting quarterback this year, but O'Sullivan rebounded nicely from his 195-yard, three-turnover debut, torching the Seahawks for 321 yards and a score in Week Two.

Perhaps JT will be Mike Martz's latest and greatest project, following in the steps of Kurt Warner or Jon Kitna, though it is still too early to tell. However, one thing is for certain, we love O'Sullivan in Week Three against the Lions. Not only do the Lions rank 25th against the pass this season, but you know Martz is going to want to score an absurd amount of points against his former employee, thereby letting O'Sullivan loose.

QUARTERBACKS - SIT 'EM

Derek Anderson (Cleveland Browns) at Baltimore

The Ravens have already made short work of one struggling quarterback from Ohio in Carson Palmer, holding the Bengals passer under 100 passing yards; look for them to do it again in Week Three against Anderson.

Coming off a surprising 2007 in which he threw for 3,787 yards and 29 touchdowns against 19 interceptions, Anderson has not lived up to his fantasy owners' lofty expectations after two weeks of football in 2008, sporting just 280 passing yards, one touchdown, and four turnovers.

The bad news is that those owners will most likely have to wait until Week Four and a matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals before Anderson's woes come to an end.
