Welcome to the Fantasy Footballers Dynasty Podcast with Borg, Betz, and a Baller.

Kyle Borgognoni (1:29)

Welcome in.

It's Wednesday, September 16th here, Fantasy Footballers Dynasty Podcast. I'm your host, Kyle Borgognoni, and I'm joined by Matthew Betz and the man without pants, Mike Wright.

Mike Wright (1:45)

Kyle's juice today.

Matthew Betz (1:48)

I love it.

Mike Wright (1:49)

What's the caffeine intake going on over there?

Kyle Borgognoni (1:52)

I've had a few, but I'm just excited to talk about my guys. Christian Watson is one of those dudes that I've just been just pounding the table for, and I'm just glad that we had to bring him up.

Mike Wright (2:02)

Yeah, he had a pretty good week.

Matthew Betz (2:05)

I can see how somehow in Kyle's spreadsheets, he's like, you know, and expect fantasy points. He really overperformed this week, and so we should expect regression next week.

SPEAKER_5 (2:13)

It's not going to work.

Matthew Betz (2:14)

Dude, just watch the tape, Kyle. Just watch Christian watching those crossers. Could you even imagine fading that player this year? Could not be me, could not be Mike. It was Kyle. So the only thing that could have made this better is if Colston Loveland didn't goose egg.

Colston Loveland did indeed goose egg, which hurt. And I know Kyle was happy about that. But man, what a fun week, boys. Week one, it was great. You know, Mike, the pants store, they had us in the first half.

SPEAKER_2 (2:39)

They had us in the first half.

Matthew Betz (2:40)

Not going to lie with Marv, but Ken Walker, baby.

SPEAKER_2 (2:43)

Oh, man.

Mike Wright (2:43)

Yeah, Ken Walker has, the machinery is sold off. It's just scraps. It's just parts. There will be no more production on pants moving forward.

Kyle Borgognoni (2:57)

The profits are just going out of business. It's not a great thing.

Matthew Betz (3:03)

Terrible timing as well because winter is coming very quickly.

Mike Wright (3:05)

Yay. Yeah, no. You know what's going to keep me warm? Kenneth Walker fantasy points.

I will drape them upon my pantsless body.

Kyle Borgognoni (3:17)

Just covered in points. Just covered in points everywhere.

We will talk about week one because it was high scoring, and yet there were also some players across the board where you're left asking questions. On this episode, we will rewind some film, talk about some players behind the scenes, and then hopefully solve a couple of issues of how do you not overreact to this performance, especially in Dynasty.

I know we're going to talk about some tight ends later on, but I have Isaiah Likely on a team. I'm trying not to overreact, but I'm happy. I'm happy that I have this player that I hoped would be something. I think we talked about him a week before, like, hey, this is what I'm looking for. This is what I hope can happen. Same thing with Dalton Kincaid. Another player, it's like, if you've been holding on, you should be very encouraged, and yet it was just a one-week sample size. So talk about someone's play. We're also going to talk about your Eagles Betz because they got the win, but like, I'm assuming people in Philly didn't feel like they actually won the game.

Matthew Betz (4:21)

I mean, it was pretty ugly for being totally honest. Like, outside of a couple of shot plays and some big runs, the offense kind of looked like they did last year from a just lackluster standpoint, and I'm interested to kind of go back through like a lot of the first-time play callers on those teams. Like, we saw what happened with the Chargers and the Eagles didn't look awesome, and there was a couple other offensive coordinators like the play callers, Davis Webb, with the Broncos, that really had some rough outings. And I think back to the conversations a lot of us had last year, if you guys recall, on the Jaguars after like the first three, four weeks where it was like, something is missing. It doesn't look right. It doesn't feel right. It's like, okay, well, Trevor Lawrence is learning another system, and it's going to take some weeks for this team to kind of gel together. So I'm not panicking on those offenses yet. Obviously, nobody should after one week, but you at least want to file it away and say, hey, does it improve in weeks two, three, four as we kind of progress?
