NEW SEGMENT ALERT! Peter Klein debuts "Waiver Wire Rebound" - your guide to finding hidden value after waivers have run. Plus Thursday Night Football preview, fantasy advice, and AEW WrestleDream hype!
WAIVER WIRE REBOUND - NEW SEGMENT! (1:12) The waivers have run, your FAAB is spent, and you're looking at the wreckage. Don't panic! We're finding hidden value in players who were just DROPPED:
Most Dropped Players Worth Picking Up:
- QB Matthew Stafford (3rd most dropped) - JAX matchup is juicy
- WR Keon Coleman (3rd most dropped) - 13 targets last 2 weeks, still has talent
- RB Michael Carter (2nd most dropped) - 9 carries + 5 targets, overreaction drop
- TE Mason Taylor (3rd most dropped) - Bad game, but still the guy for NYJ
Post-Waiver Steals (Available in 65%+ of leagues):
- QB Bryce Young (23% owned) - vs struggling Jets defense
- WR Luther Burden III (14% owned) - Bears offense clicking
- WR Tez Johnson (11% owned) - 7 targets last 2 games, big play ability
- RB Tyjae Spears (29% owned) - More touches coming after coaching change
- RB Bam Knight (22% owned) - Timeshare value in Arizona
- TE Cade Otten (26% owned) - TB/DET shootout potential
DUMPSTER DARLINGS (7:15) The most unexpected fantasy performances that helped nobody! This week's lineup featuring Jacoby Brissett, Kayshon Boutte, DeMario Douglas, and a New England stack that totaled 135.8 points owned by basically no one.
THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL PREVIEW (9:50) Steelers (-5.5) vs Bengals | Total: 44
From an X's and O's standpoint, this shouldn't be close:
- Steelers: 15th in EPA/play (mid-tier offense)
- Bengals: 31st in EPA/play (one of the worst in football)
- CIN Defense: 29th in defensive EPA - Aaron Rodgers feast game
- PIT Defense: 12th overall but 18th vs run - gettable for Joe Flacco
Peter's Take: Pittsburgh should win, but pump the brakes on the "Steelers are back!" narrative after this. They're mid. The Bengals are just that bad. Flacco keeps it closer than it should be.
THE PICK: Steelers -5.5
TNF FANTASY BREAKDOWN (14:13) Key Matchup Stats:
- PIT allows 7th most points to QBs, 3rd most to TEs
- CIN allows MOST points to RBs and TEs
STARTS:
- QB Aaron Rodgers - Smash play vs terrible defense
- RB Jaylen Warren - Cake matchup
- WR DK Metcalf - Rolling with confidence
- TE Jonnu Smith - Elite TE matchup
- RB Chase Brown - Some life with Flacco!
- WR Ja'Marr Chase - Can't sit him
- WR Tee Higgins - Must-start
- TE Noah Fant - Great matchup vs PIT
SITS:
- QB Joe Flacco - Not rolling with him
- Other PIT WRs (without Calvin Austin) - Too risky
AEW WRESTLEDREAM LOOK-AHEAD (18:03) This card is UNBELIEVABLE! Up and down, this is a fantastic show:
- Hangman Page (c) vs Samoa Joe for AEW World Championship
- The testament to Samoa Joe's drawing power - one moment in a tag match and he's a believable world title challenger
- Brodido vs Okada & Takeshita for Tag Titles
- Kyle Fletcher vs Mark Briscoe (rubber match)
- Darby Allin vs Jon Moxley (I Quit Match)
- Kris Statlander vs Toni Storm
- Young Bucks vs Jurassic Express
AEW is starting to build momentum again, and this is their chance to shine unopposed!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
