Week 10 Recap: Fields stays hot, Watson breaks out, Jefferson & Lamb dominate
Some of the best games, and fantasy performances, happened in the NFL’s week 10 slate of games. Matt Harmon and Scott Pianowski get together on Sunday evening to recap all of the action.Vikings WR Justin Jefferson had his statement games in an overtime win against the Buffalo Bills, Justin Fields showed why he’s already one of the top QBs in fantasy, Tom Brady’s Buccaneers look fixed, and Amari Cooper is still inexplicably bad in road games.Matt Ryan made a surprise start for the Colts, who might be fantasy relevant again. Rookie WR Christian Watson caught 3 TDs in what could be a season-changing performance for the Packers offense and Patrick Mahomes continued to show why he’s the most valuable player in the NFL.02:00 Vikings 33, Bills 30 (OT)11:55 Lions 31, Bears 3016:50 Buccaneers 21, Seahawks 1622:20 Dolphins 39, Browns 1732:40 Colts 25, Raiders 2041:45 Packers 31, Cowboys 28 (OT)47:35 Chiefs 27, Jaguars 1753:15 Titans 17, Broncos 1055:00 Giants 24, Texans 1657:30 Cardinals 27, Rams 1761:30 Steelers 20, Saints 10Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts

Week 9 Recap: Mixon’s big day, Tua vs. Fields & the Packers are done
Matt Harmon and Scott Pianowski kick off the Sunday night fantasy recap by talking about the high-scoring game between the Miami Dolphins and Chicago Bears that gave hope to the future of the QB position in Justin Fields and Too Tagovailoa.The guys spend time talking about all of the games, but they do spend some extra time talking about the Green Bay Packers (and Aaron Rodgers) being “done” for fantasy relevance going forward and looking back at some of the (now foolish) preseason predictions they made about the Raiders’ offense.Later, the guys debate if they’d rather have Garrett Wilson or Chris Olave in a keeper leave and wonder what happened to Gabe Davis this season. They also spend time celebrating the huge 5 TD game from Cincinnati Bengals RB Joe Mixon, and discuss if it’s time to trade Mixon off your fantasy roster or not.The guys finish with the afternoon games, with Scott floating a theory that Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay wanted to walk way from football after last season and probably should’ve.01:50 Dolphins 35, Bears 3211:55 Chargers 20, Falcons 1717:40 Lions 15, Packers 924:20 Jaguars 27, Raiders 2029:55 Patriots 26, Colts 337:40 Jets 20, Bills 1746:55 Bengals 42, Panthers 2154:20 Vikings 20, Commanders 1758:45 Seahawks 31, Cardinals 2166:15 Buccaneers 16, Rams 13Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts

Ekeler’s Edge: Pollard vs. Zeke, AFC West roundup & Rainn Wilson
Los Angeles Chargers RB Austin Ekeler is back from the bye week and excited to get back to another episode of Ekeler’s Edge.On this week’s episode, the guys discuss the interesting situation in the Dallas Cowboys backfield between Tony Pollard and Ezekiel Elliott and how RB committees are actually beneficial to the team and the guys that are in it (even if they’re bad for fantasy).Later, the guys discuss the AFC West and why it’s not living up to the preseason hype. There’s a good reason why the Chiefs are on top of the division and Austin explains how the Chargers are trying to catch up.The mailbag was a little light this week, which gives Austin and Matt plenty of time to discuss their opinions on building a team through the draft versus building through free agency and trades.Finally, the guys invite Rainn Wilson from The Office and Weird: The Al Yankovic Story onto the pod to talk about his fantasy football teams, his regret in trading away Austin last year in The Office Fantasy Football League and punishments for last place. He also gets some start/sit advice from Matt while he’s here.Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts
