John opens the show by summing up Week Whatever-It-Is in the only accurate way possible: football is stupid. Scoring plummeted across the league, quarterbacks ghosted fantasy managers everywhere, and somehow the Chiefs and Lions are both on the outside looking in at the playoff picture. Meanwhile, Jacoby Brissett broke an NFL record with 47 completions, and Kelce the Gray set a new Chiefs franchise TD record.
This week’s show dives into a jam-packed slate of news in This Just In with Justin, including suspensions, injuries, QB changes, and an ever-growing IR list that looks like a CVS receipt.
Then we hit Catch Some Waives, where we run through our favorite waiver targets at every position — from Kirk Cousins (yes, seriously) to Kenneth Gainwell, Emmanuel Wilson, and a handful of WRs suddenly thrust into starting roles due to injuries across the league.
It was a chaotic week of football, and we’re here to break it all down, complain about it, laugh at it, and somehow still find you some players who can help you survive next week.
