# Rich Hribar: Hribar previews the Week 3 Seahawks-Commanders matchup, expecting Drew Lock to start again for Seattle and Marcus Mariota to start for Washington in place of the injured Jayden Daniels, while cautioning against using either as a fantasy starter this week. **Claimed:** Sep 23, 2026 **Pundit:** Rich Hribar — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/rich-hribar **Outlet:** Sharp Football Analysis — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/sharp-football-analysis **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.sharpfootballanalysis.com/fantasy/seahawks-commanders-week-3-fantasy-football-preview-nfl-worksheet-rich-hribar-2026/ 2 checkable claims — 2 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 2 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one. > There will be weeks to use Mariota as more than a back-end QB2, but he gets the unfortunate draw of facing a Seattle defense off to another hot start. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Drew Lock to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Drew Lock, Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet - **Marcus Mariota to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Marcus Mariota, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Drew Lock — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/drew-lock - Seattle Seahawks — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/seahawks - Marcus Mariota — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/marcus-mariota - Washington Commanders — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/commanders ## What others said about the same people - David Harrison on Tim Settle: Harrison gives his initial 53-man roster projection for the Washington Commanders: three quarterbacks including Ethan Kalyak Manus, three running backs, four tight ends, six receivers (leaving off De'Ami Brown and Jaden Bradley), nine offensive linemen with Matt Goldman at center, and a defense of six linebackers but only four cornerbacks.
