Week 3 – Drew Stanton vs. San Francisco
Drew Stanton didn’t do a lot against the Giants last week starting in place of the injured Carson Palmer, but he came away with a win, which is what it really all comes down to as a quarterback in the NFL.
Unfortunately for fantasy owners, 167 yards and no touchdowns doesn’t do a whole lot for your fantasy value, and Stanton’s numbers don’t look to improve this week if he’s called upon again to face the 49ers. San Francisco let Jay Cutler thump them in the second half of the Sunday night game last week, but they’re a stout defense that forces turnovers. Stanton should not be active in fantasy leagues against this defense.
