Ep. 19: Record Breaking Weekend + 2 Cents for a Quarterback 🏆🪙

The Vibe: A wild Week 11 is in the books, featuring historic highs and crushing lows. Milton is licking his wounds after Vivian (now a dominant 10-1) took him down, but he's still fighting for a playoff spot amidst a whirlwind of QB drama and season-ending injuries.

Weekend Blitz: A week for the record books.

Historic Highs: Jacoby Brissett set an NFL record with 47 completions, while Jaxon Smith-Njigba became the first player ever with 75+ receiving yards in his first 10 games.
Historic Lows: The Bengals' defense tied a Super Bowl era record by allowing 27+ points for the 9th straight game.
QB Carousel: The Jets benched Justin Fields for Tyrod Taylor. Aaron Rodgers is playing through a broken wrist, while Shedeur Sanders' brutal debut (13.5 passer rating) has everyone questioning the hype.
Statement Wins: The Bills (Cook & Allen) and Broncos (another walk-off FG) kept rolling, while the Eagles' defense won a grudge match against the Lions.

The News: The injury bug and disciplinary action strike again.

Suspension: Ja'Marr Chase is suspended one game for spitting on Jalen Ramsey.
Major Injuries: Titans WR Calvin Ridley (broken fibula) and Eagles RT Lane Johnson (Lisfranc) are out for the year. Sam LaPorta is on IR.
QB Chaos: CJ Stroud is out. Jaxson Dart is still in the protocol. Michael Penix is on IR.
RB Shakeups: JK Dobbins is done for the season. Josh Jacobs is day-to-day.

Off The Waivers: Finding value in the chaos.

WR: Mack Hollins (NE - target share rising with Boutte out)
RB: Emanuel Wilson (GB - lead back if Jacobs is out), Chris Rodriguez (WSH - clear RB1 role), Sean Tucker (TB - RB1 with Bucky Irving out)
Stashes: Keep an eye on Jayden Reed (GB) returning to practice.

First Read: A look ahead to Thursday Night Football: Bills at Texans (+5.5). Can Josh Allen and James Cook overcome the league's #1 overall defense? Or will Davis Mills and the Texans continue their surprising success against Buffalo?

Tune in for the full breakdown to navigate a thinning waiver wire and a critical week. And just like the value of a Ja'Marr Chase this weekend, we are DONE!
