They also chat about possible DeAndre Hopkins trade locations and Ezekiel Elliott's reported preferred landing spots.For the bulk of the podcast, they talk about who they believe were the big on-field losers in free agency, including the Tampa Bay and Denver WR corps, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Jakobi Meyers & more.Wrapping up the show, Matt ranks the entire offseason's RB carousel and talks about the backs whose positions have improved, stayed the same or worsened a little bit as a result of free agency.2:50 Browns trade for Elijah Moore; Jets add Mecole Hardman9:40 Ezekiel Elliott's preferred destinations14:05 Who should trade for DeAndre Hopkins?18:00 2023's biggest free agency losers43:05 Re-assessing the RB landscapeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

With the bulk of the 2023 NFL free agency season in the rear view mirror, Matt Harmon is joined by Yahoo's very own Scott Pianowski to chat about who they feel were the big winners coming out of this season of player movement.They kick off the podcast, however chatting about all sides of the recent trade between the Dallas Cowboys and Houston Texans, which sent WR Brandin Cooks to Dallas. The guys discuss how this shores up the Cowboys offense & why the recent spate of Houston Texans additions (TE Dalton Schultz, RB Devin Singetary, extending OT Laremy Tunsil) makes them an interesting team to keep an eye on in 2023.Then, after talking about the Carolina Panthers adding WR Adam Thielen and the Chicago Bears signing RB D'Onta Foreman, Matt & Scott break down their big winners in this month's free agency period, including Dak Prescott, Justin Fields, Rashaad Penny and more.4:45 Dallas Cowboys trade for Houston Texans WR Brandin Cooks; Texans follow up with Tunsil, Schultz, Singletary signings22:20 Panthers sign former Vikings WR Adam Thielen27:10 Chicago Bears sign RB D'Onta Foreman33:50 Free Agency Winners: Rashaad Penny, Justin Fields, Dak Prescott, Mike Gesicki, Rhamondre Stevenson & moreCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Most of the NFL's juiciest player moves occurred during the early-week "legal tampering" period, but as free agency kicked off in earnest on Wednesday, there were still plenty of signings for fantasy managers to feast on. The biggest move wasn't even technically a transaction, as the endlessly introspective Aaron Rodgers announced his intention to be traded to the New York Jets, but nothing will be official until the Green Bay Packers sort out trade compensation with his team of the future.Matt Harmon is joined by Fantasy Life's Dwain McFarland to look at all of the biggest moves from Wednesday and Thursday, starting off with a deep-dive on the Jets offense with Rodgers at the helm. How high up should managers draft sophomore WR Garrett Wilson next year? What about third-year WR Elijah Moore who had an intriguing first season in New York, but found himself in the doghouse for much of 2022?Later, Matt and Dwain talk about the New England Patriots signing JuJu Smith-Schuster and whether they could be in the market to trade for a Cardinals or Broncos wideout. They also react to the week's news that the Dallas Cowboys would be releasing RB Ezekiel Elliott and they talk about their favorite potential Zeke landing spots.Wrapping up the show, they discuss moves made by the Carolina Panthers & run through a number of other free agency additions, including a trio of lesser QB moves in Baker Mayfield, Jacoby Brissett & Gardner Minshew & three RBs who signed new deals in David Montgomery, Jamaal Williams & Alexander Mattison.3:55 Aaron Rodgers' fantasy fit with the New York Jets offense14:55 New England Patriots sign JuJu Smith-Schuster, could be in the market for a WR trade30:30 Ezekiel Elliot to be cut by Dallas Cowboys40:00 New homes for Baker Mayfield, Jacoby Brissett & Gardner Minshew48:00 Carolina Panthers sign Miles Sanders, could add another WR53:50 David Montgomery goes to Detroit, Jamaal Williams to New Orleans & Alexander Mattison stays in Minnesota61:30 Grab bag moves: Giants sign two WRs; Robert Tonyan; Braxton Berrios; Orlando Brown;Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Though free agency only technically begins on Wednesday afternoon, Monday and Tuesday's "legal tampering period" gives football fans much to discuss in terms of player movement ahead of the 2023 NFL season.Matt Harmon is joined by 4for4's John Daigle to recap all of the biggest transactions from this early-week period, but first kick things off with Friday night's news that the Carolina Panthers traded for the Chicago Bears' first overall pick in exchange for four future picks and WR DJ Moore. The guys talk about why it's a great trade for both teams, how Carolina can get their QB of the future and Chicago can bolster a weak WR room with one of the best wideouts available this offseason.Next, they talk about Los Angeles Chargers RB Austin Ekeler requesting a trade and why it's potentially a tough market for free-agent RBs at the moment. For the rest of the show, Matt and John run through a boatload of teams and their bigg offseason moves: the Las Vegas Raiders signing Jimmy Garoppolo and trading away Darren Waller, the Houston Texans beginning to put a "not embarrassing" roster together, the Denver Broncos and Atlanta Falcons spending money on offensive line, the Miami Dolphins trading for CB Jalen Ramsey and more.2:30 Latest on the status of Aaron Rodgers7:20 Bears trade 1st overall pick to Carolina Panthers for four picks, DJ Moore17:10 LA Chargers RB Austin Ekeler explores a trade21:00 Las Vegas Raiders add Jimmy Garoppolo, trade Darren Waller to NYG33:10 Houston Texans inching towards respectability with FA signings so far37:30 Denver Broncos moves show they are going run-first43:41 49ers make a splash with...Sam Darnold?46:15 Atlanta Falcons go heavy on OL and defense50:10 Miami Dolphins trade for Jalen Ramsey, add QB Taylor Heineke53:40 Is retaining Michael Thomas a move that will benefit the New Orleans Saints?56:00 Minnesota Vikings add a blocking TE to beef up run game, support Hockenson59:40 Kansas City Chiefs make an offensive line move62:20 Philadelphia Eagles add RB Rashaad Penny & lose key defensive piecesCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What happens next with Aaron Rodgers and Lamar Jackson will absolutely be the focus at the start of the NFL's free agency period next week, despite the fact that neither are technically free agents. Since quarterback is the most important position, Matt Harmon and his guest, the NFL Network's Patrick Claybon, take a look at a whopping seventeen teams who could be making some sort of QB move in the coming months and play a massive game of QB matchmaker.Lamar to the Buccaneers? Baker Mayfield to the Falcons? Ryan Tannehill to the Commanders? Yes, all the most bizarre choices have made it into the show. Listen as Matt and Patrick spin the QB carousel and place new quarterbacks in just about half of the league's franchises.1:55 Update on Lamar Jackson's non-exclusive franchise tag7:10 Veteran-needy teams: New York Jets, Arizona Cardinals, Washington Commanders, Tampa Bay Buccaneers24:10 Eyes on a rookie QB: Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, Las Vegas Raiders, Atlanta Falcons & Carolina Panthers39:25 Looking at a radically different future: Green Bay Packers & Baltimore Ravens43:45 The Lurkers: Seattle Seahawks, Detroit Lions, Miami Dolphins, San Francisco 49ers, Tennessee Titans & Los Angeles RamsCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The 2023 NFL scouting combine is only a couple days in the rear view mirror, yet with this weeks news stories as the franchise tag deadline hit on Tuesday afternoon, it feels like it may have been three months ago. Nevertheless, Matt Harmon is joined by NFL.com draft expert, our old friend Eric Edholm!Matt opens the show discussing the New York Giants signing QB Daniel Jones to a long-term extension while placing the franchise tag on Saquon Barkley. Then Matt & Eric discuss former Las Vegas Raiders QB Derek Carr signing with the New Orleans Saints, the Seattle Seahawks extending QB Geno Smith, Jacksonville Jaguars WR Calvin Ridley's reinstatement & a pair of RBs receiving the franchise tag in Dallas' Tony Pollard and Las Vegas' Josh Jacobs.Later in the show, Eric delivers all of his thoughts from last week's scouting combine, including breakdowns of the four top QBs (Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, Anthony Richardson & Will Levis), and two most coveted RBs (Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs).In the middle of their combine discussion, the guys react live to the news that Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson has received the non-exclusive franchise tag and now may seek a deal with any of the other franchises in the league.Closing out the episode, Matt and Eric discuss a trio of WRs (Jaxson Smith-Njigba, Jordan Addison and Quentin Johnson) and Eric shouts out all of the TEs who could be of value to fantasy managers down the line coming out of this year's rookie class.0:25 New York Giants extend Daniel Jones and place franchise tag on Saquon Barkley7:15 Derek Carr signs with New Orleans Saints12:50 Geno Smith stays in Seattle for three more years17:10 Calvin Ridley reinstated with Jacksonville Jaguars20:30 Cowboys Tony Pollard & Raiders Josh Jacobs receive franchise tag24:40 Combine QBs: Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, Anthony Richardson & Will Levis53:35 Combine RBs: Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs1:04:25 Lamar Jackson receives non-exclusive franchise tag from Baltimore Ravens1:10:05 Combine WRs & TEs: Jaxson Smith-Njigba, Jordan Addison and Quentin JohnsonCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon and Frank Schwab go through each head coach and offensive coordinator change that has happened during this NFL offseason and rank them according to which ones should have the largest fantasy impact.Before they dive into that, the guys go through all of the news coming out of the GM and head coach press conferences at the NFL Scouting Combine. What will the 49ers do at QB? Will the Cardinals trade DeAndre Hopkins? Where will Leonard Fournette land after being released by the Bucs? The guys talk through it all before spending the second half of the episode talking about coaches in new places.02:40 Jaguars to place franchise tag on TE Evan Engram05:15 49ers considering signing veteran QB09:30 Cardinals not sure if DeAndre Hopkins will be traded14:45 Buccaneers release Leonard Fournette17:30 Bengals not sure if Joe Mixon will be back20:20 Giants release Kenny Golladay24:30 Carolina Panthers31:40 Baltimore Ravens36:20 Denver Broncos40:35 Indianapolis Colts43:25 Washington Commanders45:40 Los Angeles Chargers47:55 Los Angeles Rams / Kansas City Chiefs / New England Patriots52:20 Dallas Cowboys / Philadelphia Eagles / Tennessee Titans / Tampa Bay Buccaneers56:50 Houston Texans / New York Jets / Arizona CardinalsCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon and Dalton Del Don get to enjoy themselves, for a while, and talk about lessons learned at the WR position from the 2021-22 NFL season before having to talk about what happened to the TE position.They start at the top, with Justin Jefferson as WR1 and the lessons we can take away from his awesome season before wondering if he’d be the #1 WR picked next year or if Ja’Marr Chase is ready to pass him.After working their way through the top 12 WRs with lessons for each one of them, mostly that we should trust the talent and ignore everything else when it comes to elite WRs, the guys move on to trying to solve the TE position.Matt believes that this last season was an aberration for TEs and that they’ll come back to reality next year, while Dalton is more concerned about whether it’s (again) time for him to fade Travis Kielce.02:15 Lessons Learned: Wide Receiver06:40 Rookie WRs08:00 WR1 Justin Jefferson11:10 WR12 Ja’Marr Chase12:40 WR2 Tyreek Hill14:35 WR3 Davante Adams19:40 WR4 Stefon Diggs23:40 WR5 A.J.

Matt Harmon and Scott Pianowski go through the top 10 fantasy QBs for the 2022 NFL season and the lessons they learned along the way that will guide their fantasy football drafts in 2023.The guys talk about the steep cliff there was between the top 4 fantasy QBs this season and everyone else, making the argument against the popular “Late Round QB” strategy. They also discuss rushing QBs and whether they’re worth the injury risk to get the fantasy value from them.The top fantasy QB for the season was Patrick Mahomes, and most of the lessons learned are about how no other QB can justifiably be compared to him. However, there was plenty to learn from guys like Josh Allen (high floor), Jalen Hurts (influx in talent helps), Geno Smith (we should’ve seen it coming), Trevor Lawrence (coaching matters) and more.02:15 Late round QB?04:20 Steep cliff at QB in 202210:40 Rushing QBs15:10 Patrick Mahomes23:00 Josh Allen26:50 Jalen Hurts32:00 QB aging curve44:00 Joe Burrow46:15 Geno Smith50:45 Justin Fields54:15 Kirk Cousins55:45 Trevor Lawrence58:40 Daniel Jones61:10 Jared Goff63:25 Who should be the QB in SF?Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon and Andy Behrens get together to discuss what they learned, as fantasy football experts, about the running back position this past season and how they’ll use that knowledge to adjust how they handle it next season.The guys figured that the best way to talk themselves through the top RB lessons learned was to attach one lesson to each of the top 8 RBs in fantasy football last season, with a couple of overachievers added to the end.Find out why you shouldn’t talk about injuries when preparing for your fantasy football draft, why we should’ve seen Saquon Barkley’s big season coming, why Derrick Henry is just different than other RBs and why Andy Behrens might be the GOAT.05:45 Austin Ekeler11:50 Christian McCaffrey19:00 Josh Jacobs26:00 Derrick Henry32:00 Nick Chubb36:00 Saquon Barkley39:15 Tony Pollard43:25 Jamaal Williams49:05 2022 RB OverachieversCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon and Dalton Del Don go through all 32 NFL teams in this podcast, with a fantasy football-relevant question for each one of them.This podcast is a riot, between Dalton’s aggravations over how the 49ers playoff run ended (and how fans are treating Trey Lance this offseason) and Matt going through the pros and cons of Aaron Rodgers’ darkness retreat, there are plenty of moments that will make you laugh out loud.Find out why Matt thinks the Falcons will be great for fantasy managers next season, who Dalton has picked for the Super Bowl (you won’t be able to guess either team), where the guys think Aaron Rodgers and Derek Carr will be in 2023, whether Mike McDaniel was smoking weed on the sidelines of a playoff game and a lot more.03:10 Chicago Bears05:40 Houston Texans07:05 Arizona Cardinals09:15 Indianapolis Colts11:40 Denver Broncos14:35 Los Angeles Rams17:05 Las Vegas Raiders19:45 Atlanta Falcons24:20 Carolina Panthers25:30 Cleveland Browns27:10 New Orleans Saints29:00 New York Jets32:20 Tennessee Titans33:45 Green Bay Packers36:25 New England Patriots37:25 Tampa Bay Buccaneers38:50 Washington Commanders41:15 Detroit Lions43:55 Jacksonville Jaguars45:55 Miami Dolphins49:00 Pittsburgh Steelers51:30 Seattle Seahawks52:40 New York Giants54:30 Baltimore Ravens57:15 Los Angeles Chargers58:40 Dallas Cowboys59:50 Cincinnati Bengals62:30 Minnesota Vikings63:30 San Francisco 49ers69:30 Buffalo Bills70:30 Philadelphia Eagles74:00 Kansas City ChiefsCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon is joined by Scott Pianowski to recap the Kansas City Chiefs’ exciting 38-35 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII, but the conversation pretty quickly turns to next year’s fantasy value for Patrick Mahomes, Jalen Hurts, Travis Kielce, Isiah Pacheco, Miles Sanders and just about everyone else who played in this game.The guys start off by talking about the late-game penalty that kept the Eagles from being able to make a game-winning (or overtime-forcing) drive at the end of regulation, and the Eagles classy response to the flag, before turning their attention to the game and the talent on both of these rosters.Patrick Mahomes is on his way to becoming the best QB in the history of the league, the AFC is absolutely loaded, and the Eagles are still probably the most talented roster in the entire NFL. This may not be the last time we see either of these teams, or both of these teams, in the Super Bowl over the next few years.The guys have some fun conversations on if they’d rather have Mahomes or Hurts on their fantasy team next year, what the Eagles’ backfield could look like, how Ryan Tannehill must’ve felt watching A.J. Brown in the Super Bowl, and what lessons the rest of the NFL can take away in terms of drafting and developing QBs.Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Los Angeles Chargers RB Austin Ekeler joins Matt Harmon from Radio Row in Phoenix, Arizona leading up to Super Bowl 57 for the season finale of Ekeler’s Edge.The guys spend some time catching up, including Austin talking about the Chargers’ heartbreaking playoff loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars and getting a new offensive coordinator in Kellen Moore, and discussing their plans for the offseason.After that, the guys sit down with Buffalo Bills WR Stefon Diggs to talk about maybe the most QB talent we’ve ever seen at one time in the NFL before they chat with Chicago Bears QB Justin Fields about improvements his team is trying to make in the offseason.The show closes out with Matt and Austin talking with Cleveland Browns pass rusher Myles Garrett about his dog and his thoughts on more potential rule changes coming to the NFL.Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon returns, along with Charles McDonald, to talk about everything that is going on and has gone on over the last week.The guys kick things off by discussing the news, starting with a couple of NFL legends retiring (A.J. Green & Tom Brady) and ending with a bunch of new head coaches around the league (Frank Reich to the Panthers, Sean Payton to the Broncos, DeMeco Ryans to the Texans, etc.). They also dig in on some new coordinators, including Kellen Moore taking over the Chargers’ offense.Charles talks about what he liked and didn’t like while on the ground in Las Vegas for the Pro Bowl festivities before telling the story of why he wasn’t able to get into this year’s Shrine Bowl, but he’s not too high on this year’s draft class anyway.Matt and Charles then discuss some offseason and preseason takes on the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, and how both teams have made those takes look stupid in hindsight.Finally, we end with Charles reintroducing himself to Andy Reid and talking about Mac & cheese.Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Scott Pianowski and Frank Schwab break down both the AFC and NFC Championship games from over the weekend, talking about Brock Purdy’s injury in the 49ers loss and Patrick Mahomes playing through a high ankle sprain to lead the Chiefs to victory.The guys start by talking about the Philadelphia Eagles, who cruised to another easy win after their outstanding pass rush knocked both Brock Purdy and Josh Johnson out of the game, leaving the San Francisco 49ers without any options at QB.What are the Eagles’ offseason plans at RB? And is Brock Purdy a shoe-in to be the 49ers starting QB next season or could Tom Brady join this franchise?After that discussion, the guys talk about the officiating that ended the Cincinnati Bengals’ hopes against the Kansas City Chiefs and marvel at just how good Patrick Mahomes is.Finally, Scott and Frank give their very early Super Bowl picks against the spread and explain why they’re picking the teams they are.Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon is joined by his Fantasy Football Live co-hosts Andy Behrens and Tank Williams to preview both the AFC and NFC Championship games this weekend.First, the guys tackle a bit of news. They talk about the Carolina Panthers hiring Frank Reich to be their head coach and whether or not it will pull Matt back into being a Panthers fan.They they discuss the New York Jets hiring former Broncos head coach Nathanial Hackett to be their offensive coordinator and debate if it’s simply a move to recruit Aaron Rodgers to New York.Finally, they get to the games. First up is 49ers at Eagles, a matchup of arguably the two best defenses and two of the best offenses in the NFL this season. This is the biggest test of rookie QB Brock Purdy, on the road against a great defense in the playoffs, and they’re all eager to see how he does.The guys finish off the episode by talking about Bengals at Chiefs, a surprisingly even matchup that centers around the health of Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes. Don’t count out the defending AFC Champion Bengals, though, and star QB Joe Burrow.02:00 Panthers hire Frank Reich to be their new head coach10:00 Jets hire Nathaniel Hackett to be their new OC17:20 49ers at Eagles40:00 Bengals at ChiefsCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon and Andy Behrens recap the first 3 games of the NFL Playoffs Divisional Round, but not before having a debate over whether it is still considered the best weekend for football each year.They start off by talking about Patrick Mahomes, who fought his way through a high ankle sprain to lead the Chiefs to a win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. There’s a bigger challenge waiting for him in the Bengals next week, but maybe he just needed a good night of sleep?Andy and Matt agree that Jaguars fans should be happy with their team’s season and excited for what the next few years holds with this young, talented group.The Eagles absolutely overwhelmed the Giants, as many probably expected, but the Giants had a good season and now have some decisions to make about Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley.Joe Burrow and the (underrated) Cincinnati Bengals played a near perfect game in the snow of Buffalo, while Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs struggled to carry the rest of the Bills further in the playoffs.Finally, Dalton Del Don takes Andy’s spot to give us a boots on the ground report from the 49ers’ win over the Dallas Cowboys.04:00 Chiefs 27, Jaguars 2017:55 Eagles 38, Giants 730:05 Bengals 27, Bills 1049:25 49ers 19, Cowboys 12Check out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon, Scott Pianowski and Frank Schwab go over all four of the NFL playoff games coming up this weekend and preview each one in great detail, including where they would put their own money if they were betting on them.Frank is reminded of the 2021 Cincinnati Bengals that went to the Super Bowl when he looks at the 2022 Jacksonville Jaguars, and he wouldn’t be surprised to see an upset in Kansas City.Scott is worried about Jalen Hurts, who hasn’t played a great game in about a month, and wonders if the Giants can find a way to slow that Eagles offense down.Matt is begging Josh Allen to calm down and stop making stupid mistakes. He could get away with it against the Dolphins, but it’ll be a very different challenge against the defending AFC Champion Cincinnati Bengals.Finally, the guys agree that the Dallas Cowboys are underrated and could win the Super Bowl this year. They face what might be their toughest challenge this week, in San Francisco against the 49ers.02:55 Jaguars at Chiefs20:55 Giants at Eagles35:00 Bengals at Bills50:15 Cowboys at 49ersCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon and Andy Behrens recap all six of the games from a wildly entertaining NFL Wild Card weekend and look ahead to the offseason plans for the teams that were eliminated.Dak Prescott and Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore really shined on Monday night, effectively ending Tom Brady’s time with the Buccaneers. He likely won’t find a home with the 49ers, who continue to get impressive performances from rookie QB Brock Purdy and an offense filled with playmakers.The Chargers blew a 27-0 lead to lose to the Jaguars, and it’s mostly the fault of their run game that has struggled all season. The Bills put up a terrible performance against the Dolphins, who fought against the play clock just as much as they battled against the Bills.In “The Fraud Bowl”, the Vikings lived up to (bad) expectations but the Giants (and QB Daniel Jones) might have something special brewing. If nothing else, they’ve built an ecosystem that free agents will be eager to join this offseason.Finally, the Bengals squeaked by Tyler Huntley and the Ravens, who have to figure out what’s going on with Lamar Jackson and then figure out their offensive identity going forward.01:50 Cowboys 31, Buccaneers 1412:05 49ers 41, Seahawks 2324:25 Jaguars 31, Chargers 3038:20 Bills 34, Dolphins 3147:20 Giants 31, Vikings 2458:15 Bengals 24, Ravens 1767:00 Last Treviso Babes UpdateCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt Harmon is joined by Scott Pianowski and Frank Schwab to preview all six of this weekend’s NFL playoff games for Wild Card weekend in great detail.The guys tackle the games in order, starting with the Seahawks-49ers game and a conversation about rookie QB Brock Purdy (with lots of comparisons to 2001 Tom Brady). The group is split on who will be the winner of Chargers-Jaguars, but they might be aligned when it comes to which QB has the better head of hair.The Dolphins have no hope against the Bills, so the preview of that game inevitably leads to talk about Justin Fields’ sack rate. The Giants-Vikings game is referred to as “The Fraud Bowl” because nobody believes in either team, although Daniel Jones is awesome and K.J. Osborn might have some interesting props this weekend.The Ravens can barely field an offense but their defense should be enough to make the first half against the Bengals interesting. Meanwhile, which version of Dak Prescott will show up in Tampa on Monday night?01:40 Seahawks at 49ers18:20 Chargers at Jaguars33:20 Dolphins at Bills44:55 Giants at Vikings57:15 Ravens at Bengals67:20 Cowboys at BuccaneersCheck out all the episodes of the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
