The first week of the NFL season means the first official week of fantasy football too. To help you wade through all the match-ups and which players you should start and sit, we’ve enlisted the help of the good folks at CBSSports.com. Fantasy football experts Jamey Eisenberg, Dave Richard, and Heath Cummings will be here every week to give their thoughts on which guys have the best match-ups and which have well, not as favorable ones.
