Episode notes
Avoid Week One Overreactions
- Week 1 results are often misleading and produce overreactions across fantasy leagues.
- The hosts stress patience and remind listeners that many early flops become season-long contributors.
Don't Drop Stars After One Bad Game
- Don't panic about Ja'Marr Chase or Joe Burrow after one poor game; context matters.
- Treat Bengals struggles versus Browns as matchup noise, not season-defining form.

- Game conditions and opponent weaknesses can inflate box scores, so read beyond final score.
