Get an early start on your preparation for the upcoming week with the RotoViz Monday Review tool. In this weekly article, Blair Andrews reviews some of his favorite observations from the tool after a thrilling Sunday.

Week 2 has come and gone with myriad quarterback injuries, a number of key players underperforming, Derrick Henry continuing to laugh in the face of regression to the mean, and a team that has Calvin Ridley and Kyle Pitts deciding to throw the ball to Mike Davis seven times. A few interesting performances lead us to question whether we’re seeing new trends emerge or simply being fooled by randomness. Digging into the first available stats from Week 2 should help us to answer some of these questions. Are our favorite breakout candidates finally breaking out? Will the Broncos still have a superstar without Jerry Jeudy? Can the Chiefs thrive with their tertiary targets?

Sam Wallace brings you key waiver wire additions to prepare you for the week ahead.
