It's a big show! We'll start out updating the NFL coach carousel where some questionable names have found new jobs. We'll talk about speculation that A.J. Brown has played his last game in Philly. We'll deep dive into Emeka Egbuka's rookie tape to see what the heck happened to him in the second half of the 2025 season. And we'll preview the Super Bowl from a wagering perspective, and give you our favorite prop bets for Sunday! Guest: Matt Landes from the Prime Suspects and Props & Hops podcasts.

At the end of each season, we like to turn over the podcast to *you*, so that you can ask us what's on your mind, including hard-hitting questions like, "What the hell are the Bills doing?" and "Which player do you think eats the most chickpeas?" It's our January tradition: a Total Request episode from the listeners! Plus we'll review the rookie tape of Texans RB Woody Marks with an eye on 2026. Big fun! Guest: Denny Carter of Rotoworld.

Every offseason right around this time, we take a step back and think about players who impressed us enough to join our list of Level Jumpers. These are guys whose skills and athleticism could lead to an unexpected jump in production in 2026. We've got QBs, RBs, WRs and TEs on this list, and you'll want to pay attention! Plus, some snark from the listeners to brighten your day. Guest: Matt Harmon of Yahoo! Fantasy and ReceptionPerception.com.

The NFL salary cap is crap! If you don't know that by now, we don't know what to tell you: if an NFL team says they're making a move for "cap reasons," it's a lie. However, of *course* the money matters! But it's all in the guarantees!!! On today's show, we're sifting through the NFL contracts and coming up with skill-position players we think could get the axe this offseason because they are due to make "too much" in real actual salary. Let's go through a bunch of names! Plus, let's talk about the NFL coaching vacancies! Guest: Ben Gretch of the Stealing Signals Newsletter. NOTES:...

It's our first offseason show of 2026, and we're having a look back at the '25 season to pick out some *weird* players. These are guys who started the year wonderfully and ended terribly. Or guys who did the opposite, and won us fantasy championships at the end. Or guys who performed better than expected given their age or target volume. We'll have a look at some "Fantasy Outliers" -- and discuss what we're thinking of doing with them in '26. Big fun! Guest: Jim McCormick of ESPN.

The 2025 fantasy football season is over, so let's hand out the hardware. We'll tell you who our nominees are for Fantasy MVP, LVP, players we still do and don't believe in, and much more. Plus we'll get all sorts of goofy pop-culture and culinary awards from the Prince of Darkness...*and* we'll play a 10-minute Supercut encapsulating all that was zany and hilarious about the show last year. Thank you for being the best audience in the world! Guest: Cousin Josh.

The fantasy championships have been handed out, the champagne corks have been popped, the cigars have been puffed...and now all that's left is the bragging. Well, that's not *all* that's left...we still love the NFL, and we still love fantasy football! That's why today's show will mostly be about...*LOVE*! The guys we'll discuss today aren't necessarily the 100% best fantasy options for dynasty or for 2026 redraft, but rather, they're simply players whose film we enjoy watching! We think you'll have a fun time listening...Happy New Year! Guest: Chris Raybon from The Action Network. ...

The NFL games from Thursday were...not good! What a stinky way to start off your fantasy championship! But we have hope things will get better, and we'll discuss the injury names you need to know for Week 17. We'll also count down a list of players we think might turn out to be *undervalued* for next season, 2026 in fantasy football. And for one last time in '25, we'll make our DraftKings DFS picks for our fun $5 contest. Thank you! Good luck this weekend! Guests: DFS Expert Jake Trowbridge & Cousin Josh.

Let's talk about what happened in Week 16! Today's show will feature film review of *every* game played over the weekend, with a laser focus on the stuff that might change your approach, as you build lineups for your fantasy finals. It's that time of year when we should believe what teams are telling us about themselves, so let's talk about that! Ride the wagons! We'll also come up with the waiver adds you might make in advance of those Week 17 championships! Guest: Jake Ciely of The Athletic.

The Rams and Seahawks gave us the Game Of The Year on Thursday night, and fortunately it came with a *ton* of scoring for fantasy football. We'll discuss what happened, and what we think moving forward (and yes, we'll mention the highs and lows of Puka Nacua, too). Then it's time to look way ahead, for fun, and come up with a list of five players we're pretty sure are going to be too expensive for us to draft in 2026. Plus: some Week 16 injury news and DraftKings DFS! Guests: DFS Expert Jake Trowbridge & Cousin Josh. NOTES: Sponsor - for an incredible value on boots with the...
