The Fantasy Football Hangout podcast - Week 7 Roundup, the late & night games
Show Notes
Week 7 roundup, late & night games (00:29)
LVR 33, PHI 22
Derek Carr, who's playing well since the Gruden debacle, a top 5 QB in fantasy?
Josh Jacobs suffered a chest injury; should be good to go for Week 9
Without Darren Waller (ankle), backup Foster Moreau stepped up nicely
Miles Sanders suffers low ankle injury, has already declared as "week-to-week"
In Sanders' absence Kenneth Gainwell & Boston Scott could be in a timeshare
Next up: LVR on a bye, PHI visits DET
LAR 28, DET 19
A homecoming for Jared Goff after being the Matthew Stafford trade
Stafford continues his MVP campaign
Darrell Henderson with a middling type of game; fret not Henderson truthers
Cooper Kupp playing lights out; Robert Woods lights off
Goff showed why LAR did indeed ship him out of town
D'Andre Swift playing solidly of late
DET WR situation, a muddled mess; outside of TJ Hockenson who else can be trusted?
Next up: LAR visits HOU, DET hosts PHI
ARI 31, HOU 5
Kyler Murray in the conversation for league MVP
Right now James Conner the more valuable RB than Chase Edmonds
Zach Ertz in his ARI debut scores a TD; a must own TE who hurts the value of Rondale Moore & possibly AJ Green/Christian Kirk
Conundrum for HOU = offense struggling but yet trying to rid yourselves of your best offensive player Deshaun Watson
HOU backfield = a hot mess!
Next up: ARI hosting GB, HOU hosts LAR
TB 38, CHI 3
Tom Brady doing Tom Brady things; congrats on throwing his 600th TD pass
Without Rob Gronkowski & Antonio Brown, Brady leans on his thoroughbred WRs Chris Godwin & Mike Evans
Justin Fields still in class learning on the job; played pretty badly
Khalil Herbert, the RB to own over Damien Williams until David Montgomery returns (or if he returns)
Those with shares in Allen Robinson II could try to move him in a package deal or outright drop him
Next up: TB travels to NO, CHI hosts SF
IND 30, SF 18 (Sun night)
Carson Wentz = very good in reality; not so much in fantasy
Jonathan Taylor & his counterpart Elijah Mitchell has the same number of rushes, yards & TDs
This was the game that those with shares in Michael Pittman Jr has been waiting for
Jimmy Garoppalo hearing whispers for starting Trey Lance over him
Mitchell right now the RB to own for SF
Deebo Samuel continues to impress; Brandon Aiyuk continues to depress
Next up: IND hosts TEN, SF visits CHI
NO 13, SEA 10 (Mon night)
Jameis Winston doing just enough to get his team some wins
Alvin Kamara doing Alvin Kamara things; was the entire offense
Help on the way with Michael Thomas who's almost ready to come off IR
Geno Smith is who he is
A down game for Alex Collins who's filling in for the injured Chris Carson
Right now DK Metcalf is the only WR you can start for SEA; Tyler Lockett a must sit until Russell Wilson (finger) returns
Next up: NO hosts TB, SEA hosts JAC
