This is a tool to help you begin to formulate your Fantasy Football lineup strategy for NFL Week 3.

Opposing QB, RB, WR and TE rankings order the teams based on Average Fantasy output against that team at that position. As an example, the #1 Opposing Tight End rank means- this team gives up the most fantasy points in the league to Tight Ends. #32 has shut down opposing Tight Ends. Same with the other 3 Opposing Position rankings.

Rankings given here are for 2011 Regular Season only. We feel some of these rankings are historical outliers brought on by unusual circumstances. Some teams have attained a high or low rank this early in the season that we feel they are not entirely worthy of. Take the Packers for example. They are not the worst pass defense in the league. They have just had two history-making QB performances by elite players in their first two weeks. In these situations, we do not always highlight what “seems” like a good matchup strictly by the numbers alone. Refer to our Week 2 Match Up to view 2010 overall rankings to compare historically.
