Oh BOY OH BOY what a week of signings and trades. The Patriots went on a spending spree, the Texans... tried, and the Raiders found new ways to disappoint me. We recapped all of the relevant adds, departures, and trades up to this point, and we were even blessed with a chance to get a live reaction while recording.
Also, we finished recording right before the Will Fuller news, so we didn't get to break that down yet. Guess you'll have to come back next time ;)

Free Agent Fuuuckery

Wide Receiver is a valuable position in dynasty because of the longevity of the position and the requirement to start at least two of them, and often up to four. Having a stout WR core can set your dynasty team up for long term success, so it's imperative to know when to buy, sell, or hold. In this episode, we go through each WR group in the NFC and discuss any notable actions we have for any players.

Dynasty Stonk Watch - Wide Receiver Edition (NFC)

Continuity is hard to come by in the NFL-- both for rosters and coaching staffs. In this episode, we go over the teams that did NOT have huge overhauls this off-season. These teams all range from a 3.5 to a 5 in our consistency ratings, where 5 is highest (meaning they kept their HC, OC, DC, GM, and most/all of the Position Coaches). However, some of these teams maybe should have made some changes instead of sitting on their laurels. Listen to hear who we think nailed it and who flubbed it.

Coaching Staff and GM Changes, Pt. 2: The Other 25 Teams

This week, we talked about the bad hammies around the league, the Ravens injury woes, contract updates, and much more. Of course, a Wentz update came out right after we recorded this, but there could be another update by the time you listen anyway. We also decided to weigh in on the Giants and Joe Judge since it seems that the cool thing to do right now is dump on him.

Training Camp (Week 3) News Breakdown

We covered all the important bummers that have occurred in the NFL over the last week or two before jumping into our Bold Predictions for the 2021 season(starts at 29:45). Highlights of those predictions include the Lions backfield, Dalvin Cook's outlook, rushing records, and of course, a kicker.

Bold Predictions 2021

Our divisional previews are here! We went game by game through every team's schedule to determine how we see each team faring for the season. This episode covers the AFC West.

AFC West Preview 2021

FOOTBALL TIME! We are stoked to bring you the first game preview of the season as we breakdown the TNF matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We cover what to do with Zeke, which WRs will have the best matchups, and if any of the TEs in this game should be on your radar. Plus, we went over DFS strategies for both Fanduel and Draftkings showdowns.

Week 1 Thursday Night Football (TNF) Preview

Week 1 is in the books, and yeesh, were there some misses. Now, it wasn't all bad (and even some of the wrong calls made us happy), but there were some outcomes we did not expect at all that we had to parse through. We got a pair of eyes on all the games (either life or after the fact), so we've got the context to go with the stats for each game of Week 1.

Recorded 9-14-21

Week 1 Review

We come into a shortened post-Thanksgiving Sunday Slate of games with some real bangers in the late afternoon window. But, we didn't neglect the earlier games, as we know how important it is to be informed about the Jets, Texans, Falcons, and Jags. 

Recorded 11-26-21

Week 12 Preview

Time to cram for the draft! With a seemingly lackluster TE class, this episode ended up being an interview of Mozzy, the Tight End Whisperer. If you want to know who is worth a damn outside of Tre McBride, Mozzy's got your back. Hopefully you are doing okay at TE in dynasty...

Recorded 4-20-22

TE Draft Class 2022

We're flying through the season with bye weeks already here! While the banger games are in the 4pm window this week, we of course still covered every game on the slate. The game picks are getting easier as we get more info, but spreads and totals are tougher now that Vegas has a better read on things. Listen to find out which upsets we like this week!

Recorded around 1PM EST on 10-13-22

Week 6 Preview

We are both back with a quick-hitting week 12 preview. A lot of these games (and player matchups) were straightforward, but about a third of them needed some more in-depth analysis. We also went over some trends that are changing so you don’t get stuck in the past, which can come quickly in the NFL. Always have to keep in touch with the bartrender.

Recorded 11-26-22 (around 1 PM EST)

Since the NFL decided to get an early start on Saturday games before the Christmas weekend slates, we opted to break up this week into two parts so we wouldn't miss a fourth of the games. We have what is hopefully a good Thursday game (finally) and a decent set of games on Saturday, weather pending. If you get here after the TNF game, the Saturday preview starts at 15:50.

Week 15 Preview - Thursday and Saturday

Happy New Year's Eve (or New Year if you're listening in the morning)! The regular season is almost over, but we're certainly not done. This week features varying levels of motivation, making the injury breakdowns take a bit longer. We have teams like LV and ARI filling up their IR to throw in the towel entirely, while ATL and LAR have been on the tank for weeks. It's a solo 'sode here, but we at least have Mozzy's sweet voice in the intro.

Recorded 12-31-22 around 3PM EST

Week 17 Preview

We’re back to go over ALL of the changes for NFC teams. That includes draft picks, major coaching changes, and players lost/gained in Trades or Free Agency. Veteran moves before the draft tend to get lost in the shuffle, so we like to include them when talking about the rookies so we keep our expectations in check. This one is a doozy!

PS: this was recorded before Dalvin Cook was officially cut, but we did cover that scenario.

NFC Draft and Free Agency Recap

It's finally here! Week 1 has arrived and we are stoked to be back. The first week of the season is always wacky as we navigate through the changes, but we're here to help. We've got upsets, we've got streamers, and we've got BANGERS! Listen on to hear who we like for each game and who we're picking for bets.

Recorded 9-4-23 at 2pm EST

WEEK 1 PREVIEW!

Last week was tough and this week… might also be tough. We’re at the point where we feel confident enough to dissect the player matchups, but teams as a whole still like to bamboozle us. Join us as we go through the week 6 slate and go through a slew of TE options, D/ST choices, and game stacks that we like.

Recorded 10-13-23 around 8PM EST

Week 6 Preview: Bamboozling Moneylines

We close out the regular season with a real doozy. Between injuries and resting players, there was a LOT to cover, but we did our best to get through it succinctly. With most leagues completed, a lot of this is through a DFS lens, as we had to decipher motivation and playing time for several teams. We hope you get as much out of this as we put into it.

Week 18 Preview, Pt. 2: Let's Get Divisional

The playoffs have arrived and they're kicking off with a surprise matchup between the Browns and Texans. Really, who would've thought Flacco would be traveling to Houston for a playoff game? It looks to be an exciting one, but injuries are looming for both teams. That's the case for the night game too, as the Dolphin are coming in banged up after last week's divisional bout. It looks like Waddle and Mostert will be back, but will that be enough to take down the Chiefs?

Recorded 1-11-24 at 9:30 PM EST

Super Wild Card Weekend Preview, Pt. 1: Flacco or Flaccid?

While the first Sunday game will likely endure some terrible weather, the following three games all look like they could be shootouts (at least for one side). After the Steelers and Bills slog it out, we'll get to see four quarters of Cowboys offense, a meaningful return to DET for Stafford, and... Mike Evans. Listen to find out who we like for the Sunday slate and which values could set you apart.

Recorded 1-12-24 around 9 PM EST

Super Wild Card Weekend Preview, Pt. 2: Three Bangers and a Mash

We kick off this round of the playoffs with two games that, as of this recording, have 9.5 point spreads. That seems pretty hefty for this point in the season, so we'll be breaking down why these teams will (or won't) cover, and what type of chance they have to win outright. We're digging into specific matchup as well to help you make the best bets and DFS choices you can this weekend.

Recorded 1-18-24 at 9PM EST

Divisional Round Preview, Pt. 1: 9.5 Point Favorites

The Sunday games of the Divisional round both feature sub-touchdown spreads, making for a more nerve-racking day. We like one of the underdogs here as well thanks to injuries and a budding rookie, but a certain chef may be able to stave them off. This isn't a food podcast, but I hope you're ready to Cook some Rice!

Recorded at 8:30 PM EST on 1-19-24

Divisional Round Preview, Pt. 2: The Closer Ones

It's almost time to say goodbye for the season, but we've got an awesome round before we get to the Super Bowl. Two of the best young QBs in the league face off in the AFC game that may be more about the defenses. In the NFC, we've got an upset brewing for the Lions to potentially break their curse. 

Recorded 1-25-24 around 8PM EST

Conference Championship Preview

We close out the season with one final preview before we get into Free Agency and Draft Season. The KC defense is thankfully giving us plenty to talk about here, as their approach to defending SF will determine which San Fran weapons carry the load. In this episode we cover which main guys we like, who some possible sleepers are, and what routes we are taking for DFS lineups.

Super Bowl LVIII (2024) Preview: KC vs SF

The 2024 NFL Season is now upon us and Free Agency is nearly wrapped up. While there are still a some notable pending FA's (which we covered), most of the movement has concluded. In this episode, we reviewed every notable signing/departure, trade, and coaching change. If you have been tuned out since the Super Bowl, we've got you covered.

2024 NFL Free Agency Review - Player Movement and Coaching Changes

It's Draft Season! We kick it off with the QBs as usual here, diving into the top 6 prospects. We nitpicked the top 4 guys projected to go early (Williams, Maye, Daniels, and McCarthy) and broke down what they do well and where the floor outcomes could be. We also provided some thoughts on Nix and Penix and discussed which was actually worth a first. We will be sharing our thoughts on the other QB prospects later on in an article on mozzyandthemuscle.com.

QB Class 2024: The Great, The Good, and The Meh

It's time to review this loaded WR class! This was truly a treat for us, as we got to spend time watching the elite trio up top and dig into the next tiers of guys. We are much lower than consensus on the presumed #4 WR, and there are some hyped 40 times that we needed to dissect. Listen to find out who we think is actually deserving of the #4 WR label.

WR Class 2024: Who's Next after the Elite Trio?

We're wrapping up our prospect coverage with the RB and TE classes for the 2024 draft. Of course Brock Bowers is amazing, but who else at TE should you know about?

DRAFTCAST: Fantasy Impact of Incoming Rookies (2018)

It is with a heavy heart that we upload this episode. As we mourn the lost of a great QB, we found that opening up about our feelings from it helped us cope with the loss.
We discuss the fantasy fallout of the Andrew Luck retirement and how it effects the rest of the team, along with the latest injury news.

(Recorded 8/25/19).

RIP LUCK

We hope you had as much fun watching the draft as we did. For this episode, we brought in a couple homer friends to help us tackle the recaps for every team. Which drafts did we hate a little less (or a little more) than the consensus? And what the heck were the Packers doing?!?!

Do you want football analysis that isn't just box score run downs? Are you tired of Twitter assholes who know more than you (according to them, at least)? Do you appreciate cartoon references? Well, you're where you belong, then. We take football much more seriously than we take ourselves. Oh, and we love our bits. We'll leave it up to you to determine what "bits" means.
