Jason Moore 0:01
Welcome to the Fantasy Footballers Podcast with your hosts, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright.
Andy Holloway 0:23
Welcome in.
Andy Holloway 0:31
I really wanted to hit you with a, it's garbage time. We did have some of that. Friday, September 18th, the Fantasy Footballers Podcast. Mike, the Fantasy Hitman, Jason Moore, Andy Holloway back with you. Great show for you today. Jumping back into the Fantasy Forecast, more matchups. We've got the Wheel of Shame.

How did the hosts break down Thursday Night Football and its impact on Week 3 line‑ups?

Andy Holloway 0:54
We've got our Fantasy Face-Off. We have news, injuries, Foot Clan Friday. Packer panic in the streets 35 to 14 what a difference a not Cooper Rush makes
Mike Wright 1:09
yeah I mean we we had talked about that like you cannot you can't say that Drake London is bad or um you know that the Falcons are what we saw those first two weeks um also the Packers are very bad

What are the key takeaways from the Foot Clan Friday giveaway and recent injury updates?

Mike Wright 1:23
I
Andy Holloway 1:23
mean, let's go to resident Packer fans. Oh, yeah,
Mike Wright 1:26
Jarrett. Jarrett, how you doing? Oh.
Andy Holloway 1:28
Wait a minute. Where is he? He's doing an impression. Where is he?

Which Week 3 matchups (Patriots‑Jaguars, Cardinals‑49ers, Vikings‑Buccaneers, etc.) are the hosts recommending and why?

Andy Holloway 1:33
I like it. Papa Josh is the villain. He's fake crying. Al isn't even here. I think he's taking a day for, it's a mental health day for him. He
Mike Wright 1:41
did have a note in our Slack channel last night. Because he had to go watch
Andy Holloway 1:47
a performance. He lives and breathes the Packers. Yes, he
Mike Wright 1:50
is a diehard Packers fan. And he said, fortunately, I couldn't watch the game.

Why are the Packers considered ‘in peril’ and what does that mean for fantasy owners?

Mike Wright 1:54
Probably saved my life.
Andy Holloway 1:57
Well, I mean, I'll tell you who, you know, Jordan Love's not long for the NFL with the way the offensive line is playing. He's been sacked more than anybody through three games. And
Mike Wright 2:06
a lot of them are like comically ragdoll type of sacks.
Andy Holloway 2:11
I mean, you look at this game and then you're like, Jordan Love attempted 53 passes, more than double the amount of passes Michael Penix Jr. had. Oh, oh, but that's because the running backs combined for 17 yards on, or sorry, that's not even right. 16 yards. No, 17 yards on eight carries. Yeah. Marshawn Lloyd Caleb Johnson I mean the offensive line is making its impact across the board
Jason Moore 2:39
the soothsayers out there calling for the Caleb Johnson breakout game Nope. Nope.
Andy Holloway 2:48
The Tucker Kraft breakout game. Nope.

How do the hosts evaluate the quarterback choices (Drake May vs. Trevor Lawrence vs. Geno Smith) for upcoming games?

Andy Holloway 2:51
Nope. But don't worry. Sky Moore got seven
Jason Moore 2:52
targets. Tucker Kraft, the epitome of fantasy football here, of game environment, ended up sensational. 53 pass attempts. Opportunity for Tucker Kraft. Eight targets.
Andy Holloway 3:07
Your
Matt Chandler 3:07
tight
Jason Moore 3:08
end got eight targets. Oh, that's very exciting. Except he caught what? Four of
Andy Holloway 3:15
them. Four of them for how many yards? 26. And one of the catches, Mike, was one of the grossest passes I've ever seen thrown. It was a basically lateral. That one didn't count as a pass, did it?
Mike Wright 3:26
That
Andy Holloway 3:27
was a backwards pass. That's not a rush attempt. He'd be in rush attempts. He caught the ball. It was one of his four catches. That is generous. He tipped the ball that went flying sideways. He caught it. He dropped two passes, which, by the way, he only dropped three.

What are the hidden gems and buy‑low opportunities (Jeremiah Love, Terrence Ferguson, etc.) highlighted for the rest of the season?

Andy Holloway 3:41
Three's the most he's dropped in a year, and he dropped two last night.
Mike Wright 3:44
Yeah, he's not back. He's not back to full strength. I mean, this is in the offseason. I was saying he was kind of off my board at ADP because I don't want the slow start. However— I fully expect Kraft to be awesome this year. He is very involved. He's very good. He's working his way back to full health, full strength, and they've got to figure out this offensive line.
Andy Holloway 4:03
Can Michael Parsons play right tackle?
Mike Wright 4:06
I'm sure he can.
Andy Holloway 4:07
I'm sure he can. I
Jason Moore 4:07
bet if on the list of things he could figure out,
Andy Holloway 4:10
How about 194 yards rushing by Bijan and 194 yards receiving by Drake London?
Mike Wright 4:16
Baby, it is more
Andy Holloway 4:17
than
Mike Wright 4:18
five yards from Kyle Pitts. They hogged them all. Kyle
Jason Moore 4:22
Pitts
Andy Holloway 4:22
won for
Jason Moore 4:22
five.
Andy Holloway 4:23
I'm
Jason Moore 4:23
still winning
Andy Holloway 4:24
that trade,
Jason Moore 4:24
boys. Epic tight end failure. But I mean, there was so much fantasy goodness in this one. The Falcons guys, Matthew Golden, 101, delightful. Christian Watson, my guy, a little bit, maybe some stinky. I don't care. We got 96 and a touchdown out of Christian Watson. So overall, I mean, Tucker Craft getting the eight targets and doing nothing, major, major disappointment. But overall, pretty good for
Andy Holloway 4:57
fantasy. Couldn't be more over for Marshawn Lloyd.
Mike Wright 5:01
Yeah,
Andy Holloway 5:02
I
Mike Wright 5:02
mean, he's not that good. And I wonder, you know, I've
