After three weeks into the NFL season, it’s way too early to stamp any player a lost cause in fantasy football. However, you don’t get paid millions of dollars to not expect criticism from the fans that drafted. If you are a fantasy nut job like myself then you already know these quarterbacks need to step it up! Let’s take a dive into the most underwhelming fantasy quarterbacks through week 3.
Mitchell Trubisky
Steelers Quarterback Mitchell Trubisky was already on a short leash after winning the starting job by a hair. 2022 First-round pick Kenny Pickett may not have to wait much longer as he has already shown promise in the preseason. However, Trubisky still has time to build a resume with his “high-potential” receivers in Diontae Johnson, Chase Claypool and blooming rookie George Pickens.
With a solid running game heralded by star tailback Najee Harris, there’s no excuse why Pittsburgh’s offense hasn’t hit the ground running. Head Coach Mike Tomlin will give the keys to Pickett in a hurry before he flushes this season down the toilet.
Matthew Stafford
It could be the Super Bowl blues or the fact that Stafford has difficulty trusting anyone not named Cooper Kupp. Whatever the case may be, the LA Rams signal-caller has underwhelmed. Although Stafford was not drafted top 5 in many leagues, he is still one of the better quarterbacks week to week.
What happened to all the promises from the Allen Robinson pickup? When will Cam Ackers truly break out from injuries? Stay tuned Week 4 is here.
Russell Wilson

You know it’s all bad when Eli Manning is talking trash! Russell Wilson has found himself where coaching may just be his new Achilles heel. Head Coach Nathaniel Hackett is a first-time head coach and it shows. It’s almost as if Russ is allowed everywhere in the house except the KITCHEN!
What do Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady have in common that Wilson does not? The ability to call TIMEOUT in crunch time! LET RUSS COOK!
