It's Week 16 of the NFL season and we are firmly in the fantasy football playoffs! Hopefully your teams are still alive and well - not being haunted by Jonathan Taylor dropping a no doubt TD just short of the goal line, or David Montgomery's MCL, the 49ers general lack of offensive firepower, or you know, any of the other 48 things you couldn't have seen coming last week.
The good news is... the weird has already started rolling in for week 16. It's only Wednesday, but we've already got 4 quarterback changes, 2 more who are going to try to play through injuries they shouldn't be, and then the normal bumps and bruises. Don't worry - Jana and The Sherpa have everything covered along with the rest of the league's (extensive) injury updates, including a few returning players!, and mercifully Sherpa breaks down the best available waiver wire options.
After that we go through the best starts and who to avoid at each position. Then, the game predictions have everything this week - why stop at game picks when you could also throw in punter analysis, draw up some trick plays - complete with celebrations, and fix the Giants offense in the same segment? And we top it all off with a couple of DFS value options for you to wrap things up.
Next week, we've got our holiday show where we are giving out our lumps of coal and gifts so let us know who you think is most deserving of coal or gifts on your fantasy roster in the mean time to see if they make our list!
Tune in every week all season long (or download and listen anytime on your favorite podcast app) to the 4th and Inches Show with Jana & The Sherpa, now in our 15th season, and let us guide you to victory!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
