Episode notes

NFL Kickoff night has arrived and a new season is about to get underway. Speaking of new things, we are ecstatic to debut 'Fantasy Film Room' with Matt Harmon and Nate Tice. Throughout the season on Thursdays, Harmon and Tice will mege trending fantasy topics with hard hitting analysis from their film study. All of this is an effort to make you a smarter and better fantasy manager.

For the first episode, Harmon discusses the growing trend of NFL offenses using heavier formations with more TEs and less WRs. Tice explains why this is a reaction to the way defenses have shifted over the years. Both believe this shift could help raise the floor of TEs in fantasy and maximize target opportunities for top end WRs.

In the second segment, Tice shares what he's nerding out about heading into Week 1 and dissects two run games that are not being talked about enough. To end the show, Harmon and Tice preview Ravens-Chiefs and Packers-Eagles and provide their favorite prop bets in each:
