About this episode
For a second straight Tuesday the pod unfortunately starts with yet another cold open from Matt Harmon reacting to another devastating injury on Monday Night Football. This time it's Cleveland Browns RB Nick Chubb. Harmon provides instant reaction and where the Browns and fantasy owners can go next. The 'People's Panic Meter' is back and boy there is quite a bit of panic after Week 2. Matt Harmon and Andy Behrens do their best to react to everyone's submissions. Of course we start with maybe the worst team in the NFL: Andy Behren's Chicago Bears. The two debate if the franchise is beyond panic and if Justin Fields could be one of the biggest fantasy whiffs of the season. Behrens and Harmon then discuss if it's truly time to panic for the Bengals, Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase. The two also try to make sense of the wild state of the running back position through the first two weeks of the season. Behrens ends the show by sharing his top five waiver wire pickups for Week 3. 0:10 - COLD OPEN: Matt reacts to Nick Chubb injury 4:43 - People's Panic Meter 6:21 - Are the Bears beyond panic? 15:20 - Josh Jacobs + Dameon Pierce 20:24 - Jahan Dotson + Antonio Gibson 23:05 - Burrow, Chase and Bengals 27:15 - Isiah Pacheco 30:05 - Rashod Bateman + Kyle Pitts 36:22 - AJ Brown 38:52 - Breece Hall 41:53 - Alexander Mattison 43:48. - Jahmyr Gibbs 48:52 - Top 5 Waiver Wire pickups for Week 3 Subscribe to the Yahoo Fantasy Forecast on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎧 Spotify 🖥️ YouTube 📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast network or yahoosports.tv And check out Matt Harmon and Yahoo Fantasy on our socials: 📷 @YahooFantasy: https://www.instagram.com/YahooFantasy ⌚ @YahooFantasy: https://www.tiktok.com/@yahoofantasy 🐦 @YahooFantasy: https://x.com/YahooFantasy 🟦 @YahooFantasy: https://www.facebook.com/YahooFantasy/
