Episode notes

Matt Harmon is joined by Andy Behrens to recap week 17 in the NFL, also typically known as fantasy football championship week. The guys discuss some big performances, a few duds, and look ahead for a couple of teams who are already out of playoff contention.

We kick the show off with a recap of the very fun “backup QB bowl” between Jarrett Stidham (and the Raiders) and Brock Purdy (and the 49ers), but very quickly work our way towards the outstanding offensive performances by Tom Brady, Mike Evans and the rest of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers…who are a team nobody wants to play in the playoffs.

Noted Bears fan Andy implores the team to protect Justin Fields at all costs before the guys try and figure out what to make of the current four-game winning streak from the Green Bay Packers.

The Dolphins season looks like it’s slipping away due to Tua’s concussion issues, Damien Harris ate into most of Rhamondre Stevenson’s fantasy value, we still don’t trust anyone on the Chiefs besides Mahomes & Kelce, and the Jaguars didn’t have to play hard (or for very long) to put away the Texans.

This is a fun episode as the guys go through all of the games played on Sunday, including another 2-TD performance by our guy Austin Ekeler!
