Antonio Brown is set to play his second game as a member of the New England Patriots this week against the New York Jets. After a four-catch, 56-yard performance with a touchdown reception last week against the Miami Dolphins, Fantasy Football players want to know what they should be expecting this week.

Quite simply, Brown is going to be a much more dangerous weapon to throw into your lineup in Week 3.

Not only is he going to be one of Tom Brady's best weapons that he has ever had, he is going to be much more familiar with the Josh McDaniels offense. New England will be able to utilize him much more than they did last week. Another week under his belt learning the playbook and practicing and the sky is the limit for him against a weak Jets' defense.

So, with that being said, is Brown in line for a breakout Fantasy Football performance this week?

To make the answer very simple, yes, he is in for a big game. New York has had issues defending against big-play wide receivers throughout the first two games. Simply looking at Monday night's game against Odell Beckham Jr. and you'll get an idea of how difficult it is for them to stop star wideouts.

Brown is going to put up massive numbers this week for the Patriots. He showed that he is still one of the elite playmakers in the NFL at the wide receiver position in his debut with the team. His 20-yard touchdown catch from Brady was impressive and he put those numbers up after just a short time learning the system.

Now, Brown is going to be unleashed on the Jets. Bill Belichick and company are going to look to get him involved early and often. Brady and Brown are going to terrorize the Jets' defense.
