WR/CB Matchups: Fire Up Amon-Ra St. Brown in Week 2

While the Lions’ 27-13 Week 1 loss to the Packers set off some fire alarms in the Motor City, there was a constant that kept beating like a rhythmic heartbeat. Amon-Ra St. Brown saw his usual target share inside, which should lead to yet another dominant season. Are the Bears a matchup he can further exploit?

Chris Allen analyzed several wide receiver/cornerback matchups and identified several to target and avoid in Week 2. There’s a rookie breakout to keep an eye on in Week 2, and going forward.⤵️

Start/Sit: Time To Sit This Elite RB?

Coach Gene Clemons is no stranger to bold calls that come through. He did call George Pickens a sit before his quiet opening week against the Cowboys. Now he’s calling for a running back we drafted among the top 10 backs to ride the pine in Week 2? That’s a hot take that will make many cry.

Coach Gene and “Silver Linings” Laghezza are back with their Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em feature. A couple rookies get a starting spotlight, while a QB who was much maligned after his Week 1 game gets a starter’s nod. Check this out before setting your lineup. ⤵️
