Fantasy Football With Mozzy and The Muscle

It's time for the Name Game! In this episode, we compare players with the same (or similar) names and pit them against each other either head to head or by value (a.k.a. ADP) for the 2021 season. I came up with twenty of these bad boys because I didn't want to leave anything on the table. PS we recorded this before the Akers news, so we'll cover that next time. https://mozzyandthemuscle.wixsite.co...

Continuity is hard to come by in the NFL-- both for rosters and coaching staffs. In this episode, we go over the teams that did NOT have huge overhauls this off-season. These teams all range from a 3.5 to a 5 in our consistency ratings, where 5 is highest (meaning they kept their HC, OC, DC, GM, and most/all of the Position Coaches). However, some of these teams maybe should have made some changes...

Continuity is hard to come by in the NFL-- both for rosters and coaching staffs. In this episode, we investigate the overhauls that happened this offseason: ATL, DET, HOU, JAX, LAC, NYJ, and PHI. All of those teams changed all or 4 of the following spots: HC, OC, DC, GM, and Position Coaches (which we grouped together for the purpose of this exercise), so they all received low consistency grades....

Wide Receiver is a valuable position in dynasty because of the longevity of the position and the requirement to start at least two of them, and often up to four. Having a stout WR core can set your dynasty team up for long term success, so it's imperative to know when to buy, sell, or hold. In this episode, we go through each WR group in the NFC and discuss any notable actions we have for any play...

Tight End is a onesie position that is historically top heavy, making it tough to evaluate at times. It's tough giving up a great running back or receiver for a top tight end, but it also SUCKS having bottom of the barrel guys and hoping you don't get goose egged each week. In this episode, we place Buy, Sell, or Hold designations on pretty much every fantasy relevant tight end as we highlight som...

With the Superflex format becoming more popular every season, it's important to find Quarterback value whenever possible in a dynasty league. In this episode, we discuss each team's QB situation, placing a Buy, Sell, or Hold designation on (almost) every fantasy relevant player. Headlining players for this episode are Kyler Murray, Jalen Hurts, Daniel Jones, Tua Tagovailoa, Jared Goff, and Sam Dar...

Running back has long been the most valuable position in fantasy football, but in dynasty, it's important to know when that value has peaked. In this episode, we go through the top 20ish running backs in dynasty ADP (and some of the undesirable backfield situations) and label each player a Buy, Sell, and/or Hold. We of course talked about Julio and Rodgers (although I mostly just vented about the...

The 2021 NFL Draft is in the books, but there is a LOT to digest. We broke down EVERY team's draft in this episode (hence the length), and we were pleasantly surprised by what most of the new GMs did... but you'll known whose we hated. Mozzy raves about his high-flying Jets, The Muscle rants about his reaching Raiders, and we both dump on the Texans (as is tradition). Recorded 5/06/2021.

Disclaimer: This mock is how we see the draft playing out and who the teams will take, now who we think they SHOULD take. With that said, we did our best to put ourselves in the shoes of these teams and make the picks that we felt aligned the the teams' needs and tendencies. We disagree on who goes #3, though, so that caused our mocks to shake out a little different (as in we had a different trade...

With our last position preview before our Mock Draft, we give a fairly off-consensus breakdown of the running back class. We have a surprise #2 (lol) for you all here. But first, Mozzy breaks down his top 5 TE's (yes, there are others besides Pitts). After the positional breakdowns, we talk a bit about how are QB rankings have changed over the last month, and why Mac Jones is like a single bag of...

Our WR Preview is finally here! While we don't cover EVERY prospect (because that would be impossible... especially with this deep class), we go over the consensus top guys, along with some surprise entries into our top 5's, and a few "sleepers" to boot. Recorded 4/14/2021. Apologies for the excessive background noise this episode.

It's time for everyone's favorite part of draft season: QB Evaluations! In this episode, we cover the consensus top 5 (Lawrence, Fields, Jones, Wilson, and Lance), and Mozzy also offers his insight on a couple guys that may get taken in the later rounds. Everyone knows about "Tank for Trevor" but will "Losing for Lance" or "Winless for Wilson" prove to be franchise altering choices as well? If you...

As draft season nears, we wrap up the final FA signings, which thankfully included all of the big name WR signings. Aside from them, it was mostly "leftovers" and a few important re-signings. This episode isn't as rant heavy, but we still got our shots in. Recorded 3-25-21 around 4 PM EST (yes, a day before the draft pick trades, of course)

Oh BOY OH BOY what a week of signings and trades. The Patriots went on a spending spree, the Texans... tried, and the Raiders found new ways to disappoint me. We recapped all of the relevant adds, departures, and trades up to this point, and we were even blessed with a chance to get a live reaction while recording. Also, we finished recording right before the Will Fuller news, so we didn't get to...

Less than a third of the league used their franchise tag this off-season, which means a LOT of players will be on the move (and we hope some of those tagged players get traded). In this episode, we talked about pretty much every fantasy relevant player we could think of that will be hitting free agency. The Muscle thinks Aaron Jones ends up in Florida (although not where you might think) and Mozzy...

This episode is all about answers! Or, well, the ones we (try to) have, at least. We talked about upcoming NFL dates/deadlines, which offenses we expect to fly (and fail) in 2021, how Trevor Lawrence would rank among the last 3 QB draft classes, and who would make up our All-Time Fantasy Team. As always, we are on twitter as @MozzyandMuscle Recorded 2/28/2021

Thank you, Eagles and Colts, for giving us something to talk about. In part 2 of our Quarterback it Up series, we go through the NFC (plus the Colts) and evaluate all of the QB situations. And no, my positive comments about Daniel Jones were not a distress signal-- I am safe. We recorded this on 2/19/20 (shortly after the Wentz trade), and thankfully not much has happened since, because I took a l...

First thing, we want to say R.I.P. to Marty Schottenheimer, whom we acknowledged in the episode before we realized he passed away. With that, this episode is about QBs (oh, and I guess sorta the Super Bowl, a little bit) and how each team is set up for 2021. Marty once again came up in our Tua discussion, as the Dolphins have been a got topic this year with their handling of Tua and possible pursu...

Do we sound fancier? A little more distinguished, maybe? Well, these two distinguished gentlemen (lol) are here to break down Super Bowl LV. This year features a frog and a goat facing off, giving the Puppy Bowl a run for its money. Hit us up on twitter (@mozzyandmuscle) if you like what you hear (or if you think we're idiots). Recorded 2/2/21 around 9 PM EST

This is the last round before the big game, so... there wasn't a ton of active football to talk about. So, after about 25 minutes or so of previewing the games, we decided we should get into all the front office changes that have gone on. Also, we do not own the rights to the song I played. Sorry, Sarah. Recorded on 1/21/21 around 7 PM EST.

In what is our quickest episode to date, JWat joins us to preview the Divisional Round as his Chiefs take on the Browns. We of course previewed the other games, and we have a couple potential upset calls that are much more foreseeable than the Browns crushing the Steelers Recorded on 01/15/2021 around 5:30 PM

The regular season is ALL DONE, along with 2020 as a whole, which managed to seep into 2021 a bit. We started with a brief review of the season compared to our expectations, then at about 13:30 we got to our preview of this weekend's games. We didn't actively pick any upsets, but there is one in particular that we NEED to happen (I bet you can guess). Recorded on 01/07/2021 around 4:30 PM EST

We are back after a bit of a holiday and work induced layoff! Instead of rehashing the past two weeks (which mostly sparked anger... not joy...), we jump right into Week 17 and break down the games that matter. As for those that don't, we sort of just talked about DFS implications. We capped off the episode with some possible playoff scenarios and how the JETS could be the reason teams don't make...

The Fantasy Semi-Finals are underway, so it's time for us to explore this week's matchups, including many huge spreads. Can you play all the packers, ravens, and titans? Is there anyone from a shitty team you should consider? Listen on and find out who to bang and mash! Recorded on 12/19/2020 around 12:30 PM EST
