ANECDOTE

P Friend Phone-Call Story

  • Daniel Dopp shares a funny story about missing Field Yates' call while using the bathroom and learning friendship tiers.
  • The hosts riff on being 'P friends' and levels of friendship for laughs.
INSIGHT

Mahomes' Ceiling Hinges On Rushing

  • Patrick Mahomes' monster fantasy games correlate strongly with 50+ rushing yards, not just passing volume.
  • Mahomes has only two designed runs this season, so Mahomes' ceiling depends on unpredictable scrambles.
ADVICE

Avoid Relying On Sam Darnold Long-Term

  • Avoid starting Sam Darnold as a reliable fantasy QB despite last week's big outing; he's volume-limited and rarely runs.
  • Treat him as boom-or-bust streamer only if matchup forces heavy passing attempts.
