IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectNFL teams are constantly changing their rosters in pursuit of perfection. Other times, players get too expensive to keep. The point is, teams are always trying to find the right recipe for success. But even the best players don’t always have good days. Humans have bad days too. Down below is one NFL player from each team who will disappoint their fan bases in Week 3.Arizona Cardinals, Jacoby BrissettSep 20, 2026; Glendale, Arizona, USA; Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett (7) throws in the second half against the Seattle Seahawks at State Farm Stadium.

That will be the story this week against a 49ers defense that knows the journeyman quarterback well. After Brissett had just 95 yards, a touchdown and an interception last week, Brissett may end up with a few more yards, but he won’t come close to leading his team to victory. Atlanta Falcons, Bijan RobinsonSep 20, 2026; Atlanta, Georgia, USA; Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson (7) rushes during the first quarter against the Carolina Panthers at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Plus, the Packers, will likely key in on trying to slow down the Falcons’ best playmaker, Bijan Robinson. He’s gone for 83 and 72 rushing yards in his first two games. After the Packers let up 107 yards to the Vikings in Week 1, they put the clamps on Breece Hall and held the Jets to just 67 rushing yards, despite taking the game to OT. Baltimore Ravens, Malaki StarksSep 13, 2026; Indianapolis, Indiana, USA; Baltimore Ravens safety Malaki Starks (24) tackles Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (17) during the second half at Lucas Oil Stadium.

While young players typically get better from one year to the next, he’s already missed two tackles this season. He’s also allowed a catch all seven times he’s been targeted, for 88 yards and a touchdown. Facing off against two elite pass-catchers in Dallas, it could be a long day for Starks in Brazil. Buffalo Bills, James CookBuffalo Bills running back James Cook has a large space to run and almost makes it to the end zone before getting tackled during the second half at the Bills home opener game against the Detroit Lions on Sept. 17, 2026.They can’t all be winners, not even the NFL’s reigning rushing leader. James Cook is as good as they get, but sometimes the Bills will run into a good defense that will trip him up. That could happen this week against the Chargers, who rank first in the NFL, allowing just 2.7 yards per carry. Coo
