Yahoo Fantasy Forecast Ekeler's Edge: Austin on trading for himself in fantasy + deep dive on Tush Push
It's another Wednesday edition of 'Ekeler's Edge' with Matt Harmon and LA Chargers RB Austin Ekeler heading into Week 8 of NFL action. On the pod this week, Ekeler speaks candidly about the team, and himself, not meeting expectations so far this season with a current record of 2-4. Harmon and Ekeler also discuss why even the supposed best teams in the league this year have struggled with consistency through seven weeks.
The two then provide an update on the Ekeler Invitational fantasy league and why it might be time for Harmon to make some big trade moves with a record of 3-4 in the league. Ekeler also makes a pitch for Harmon to trade for himself.
In our latest edition of 'Trading Secrets' the two do a deep dive on why the Eagles are so successful at the Tush Push and why other teams struggle to replicate the play. Harmon also ponders if Ekeler would be a candidate to do the Tush Push play for the Chargers. Ekeler's reaction is priceless.
