Episode notes
Bears' Record Masks Fragility
- The Bears' strong record masks underlying fragility: they outscore opponents by only six points and rely heavily on turnovers and rushing.
- Danny Heifetz warns the Packers matchup will reveal whether Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson's system are truly sustainable.
Think Twice About Playing Rome Dunze
- Consider benching Roman Darzi (Doons?) in cold, windy Green Bay despite good target metrics this season.
- Heifetz advises caution because weather and matchup (Michael Parsons vs. rookie LT) could limit his ceiling this week.
Lamar's Rushing Ceiling Has Fallen
- Lamar Jackson's rushing ceiling has materially declined since returning from injury, reducing his fantasy upside.
- The hosts note designed run yards fell from ~26 to ~6 per game, making Lamar a riskier QB start.
