This episode is brought to you by State Farm.

Every football fan is different. Some won't wash their lucky mustard stained jersey until the season's over. Some insist they can't sit down on third downs, and some pick their favorite team because, I don't know, just like football fandom, nobody's life is exactly the same. And that's why State Farm gets to know you, not as a policy number, but as an actual person, so they can help personalize a coverage plan that's just for you. Whether it's game day or just another Tuesday, State Farm has you covered.

Welcome to the Fantasy Footballers Podcast with your hosts, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright.

Andy Holloway (1:31)

Welcome in.

Friday, October 16th, the Fantasy Footballers Podcast. Jason Moore is here. Mike The Fantasy Hitman, and I'm Andy Holloway. So we're back, Mike. We had, they played football last night. That's what they call that. They did. And the Broncos, I mean, the Broncos, what a team. 17 to 14 in overtime over the defending champions. Dominant victory, incredible offensive performances throughout. Bo Nicks had 17 completions for 107 yards. It had to be like the first quarter, I'm assuming.

Mike Wright (2:19)

Took him 27 attempts.

Andy Holloway (2:21)

Oh, that's the whole game?

Mike Wright (2:22)

Yeah, yeah, yeah. 27 attempts to get to 107 passing yards.

Jason Moore (2:27)

On PrizeFix, I had my, his passing completions. I was never scared.

SPEAKER_5 (2:33)

Oh, of course, of course, yeah, yeah, of course.

Jason Moore (2:35)

Man, he stayed, did you guys see the Fitzpatrick?

Mike Wright (2:39)

Yes.

Andy Holloway (2:39)

I didn't get to watch it. Oh, baby.

Jason Moore (2:41)

It's so good because it is-

Andy Holloway (2:43)

He said he was like dishonoring the quarterback position or something?

Jason Moore (2:45)

It's so good because it is real. It is not networked and, you know.

Andy Holloway (2:51)

I mean, is it possible for us to put that on here?

Jason Moore (2:53)

No, we can't do that.

Andy Holloway (2:54)

We can't do that. I don't think we got the rights, you know, all that. But basically what he said- He had a transcription of it, though.

Jason Moore (2:59)

He said he's just, I mean, he said what we're all seeing, which is he is not playing competitive football.

Mike Wright (3:04)

I believe he said it was disrespectful to the quarterback position.

Andy Holloway (3:07)

Absolutely. I saw something that was like-

Mike Wright (3:09)

It was disrespectful to us watching.

Andy Holloway (3:10)

To my eyeballs? Yes.

Jason Moore (3:12)

There were like 1,600 times where Bo Nicks was in a certain situation, and he was the first one of all time to run out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage.

Andy Holloway (3:22)

What are you doing? Throw the ball away. It was really frustrating to watch, and part of it for me, this is speaking, this is the quote, is Bo Nicks is not playing competitively. It's almost disrespectful to the quarterback position, how he's playing the game right now.

First of all- You're talking about that winner? The guy doesn't want to throw the ball. That's fine, Fitzpatrick said. He's throwing it to the flats. He's throwing behind, but he has no trust from his coach. Peyton calls a screenplay on third and eight. Just run up and let the clock keep going.

Mike Wright (3:47)

What does he do?

Andy Holloway (3:48)

He throws it away. Seattle gets the ball. They have a timeout, and then an overtime, blah, blah, blah. They come back.

Mike Wright (3:52)

He got really fired up about the run. I don't remember if it was regulation or in overtime.

Andy Holloway (3:59)

You're talking about the run to the right side? Yes. Yeah, that was the final.

Jason Moore (4:04)

You watched Fitzpatrick back in the day out there when he's got to run to pick something up. Oh, body is on the line.

Mike Wright (4:10)

The only thing that matters was that one yard, and Bohnick's...

Andy Holloway (4:14)

Not willing.

Mike Wright (4:14)

Were not there yet. And it's very confusing. Is it his... I mean, his ankle, if you... We have to remember, he destroyed his ankle back in the playoff game against the Bills.
