Episode notes
ADVICE

Bet Allen To Run More In Playoffs

  • Take the over on Josh Allen rush attempts around 7.5 because he runs more in postseason scripts and will keep using his legs despite injuries.
  • Expect design runs to roughly double in Brady-coordinated playoff games, raising Allen's rush attempt floor.
INSIGHT

R.J. Harvey's Workhorse Ceiling

  • R.J. Harvey projects as a high-upside workhorse in Denver due to a run-funnel matchup with Buffalo and offseason rest.
  • Peyton's game plan could unleash Harvey for 15–20 touches and meaningful receiving work if trailing.
ADVICE

Target Rams Rushers Vs. Bears Without Edwards

  • Lean toward Kyren Williams and Blake Corum in the Rams-Bears game because Chicago's run defense worsened without LB T.J. Edwards.
  • Expect efficient run production and increased McVay reliance on the ground with Stafford banged up outdoors.
