This episode is brought to you by Carhartt. We spent a lot of time talking about what happens on the field. But what about everything that has to happen before anyone can play on it? The grass has to be grown, the stadium has to be built, the goal posts have to be welded. That's the work of tradespeople committed to getting every detail right. And Carhartt is proud to outfit those people, the crews making football possible. So this season, when you're watching the game, take a second to think about the people behind it.

Welcome to The Ringer Fantasy Football Show.

Danny Heifetz (3:00)

My name is Danny Heifetz and I'm joined by Danny Kelly and Craig Horlbeck. We are going over all the games from week five, starting with Falcons, Ravens. Craig, we demand Strand. We demand Jack Strand.

Craig Horlbeck (3:12)

They could have used them. Actually, no, I guess Tua and Strand just come in and throw picks immediately. But there was no sign. I wish we cut to the guy. Was the Strand guy there? I don't know.

With a lot of people there. Yeah. Was he there? That's a bummer. I was really bummed for Michael Pennex. Seeing him with the towel over his head, this poor guy, Collins was talking the whole game about, he's like, it's not the injuries, it's the recovery and recovering three times and fighting your way back. Then like 10 minutes later, he takes a shot, maybe breaks a couple ribs, and then he can't play the final series, which was really brutal, because I think Pennex is a likable guy.

Danny Heifetz (3:44)

Yeah, Ravens beat the Falcons 30 to 23 in overtime. Ravens came back, actually did an anti-Raven, where they actually came back down from eight, and then actually went to overtime, and then won overtime, and had a dominant Derek Henry drive that actually went to plan for once, and they actually just took up like nine minutes, eight minutes of game time, and then got it in the end zone, despite DK Mark Andrews trying to drop every ball imaginable.

Danny Kelly (4:08)

Oh, my lord. This was...

Craig Horlbeck (4:11)

The only thing DK texted us during all of Sunday Night Football is every time Mark Andrews was targeted. He would just be like, another ridiculous target to Mark Andrews, who has soap for hands.

Danny Kelly (4:22)

Can we go through what he did in this game? First off, he dropped a touchdown, I think in the first quarter. He fumbled on his first catch of the game later. He also had a two...

SPEAKER_4 (4:33)

Which became a touchdown.

Danny Kelly (4:35)

Yeah, the other way, which for the other team. And then he was, he caught a two-point conversion, but it was promptly punched out of his hands. He caught another pass in a crucial situation late in the game, which was promptly punched out of his hands.
