We're not gonna lie. The Week 9 waiver wire is...not amazing. But at this time of year, we believe in roster churn, and if you've got some players at the end of your fantasy football bench who aren't doing anything, give 'em the Thursday Boot and try someone else. We'll count down who we like best off Week 9 waivers, plus we'll review the rest of the Week 8 game film to give you an edge as we creep toward the fantasy playoffs! Guest: Jeff Erickson of Rotowire.

Fantasy football is frustrating! You do everything right, and then your guy decides to get hurt! We'll discuss injuries to Stefon Diggs, Jordan Love, Brian Thomas, Christian Kirk and others, plus we'll go beyond the box score to break down film and tell you the truth behind the stats. Is Baker Mayfield foolproof? Did Jalen Hurts just ascend back to an elite level? Are Jonathan Taylor, Joe Mixon and Josh Jacobs unstoppable? We'll talk about tons of the Week 8 action on today's pod! Guest: Chris Raybon of the Action Network.

Chuba Hubbard has been a revelation in Carolina. Of course, the Panthers aren't very good, Bryce Young will start for them this week, and Jonathon Brooks is on the way. For today's Film Futures Or Whatever It's Called, we're evaluating Chuba with an eye on his career and his dynasty stock, because he's an unrestricted free agent in 2025. We'll also do some Flexual Healing to answer some start/sit lineup decisions for Week 8, we'll preview the Vikings/Rams game Thursday night, we'll play an awesome Cartavious-related mixtape, and select our DraftKings DFS teams.
