From the hosts of the critically acclaimed podcast The Solis Report — the No. 1 late-night show in fantasy — comes a weekly column, chopping up the week’s news and talkin’ a few trades.
John
Week 1 in the books and we’re on to Cincinnati!
Devin
Yessir. Folks, we’ve got a brand new show out this weekend. Hope you will check it out. Talkin’ some Chargers Curse and we discover a surprising fact about the NFL’s favorite music according to a new poll.
John
Hey, did you catch any of that Carolina game? Teddy Bridgewater‘s return to starterdom?
Devin
Couldn’t put a one in the win column, but a nice day for RotoViz favorite Robby Anderson.

Hey, Dev, what do you say to a panther mascot that steals your job?
Devin
I don’t know, John, what do you say?
John
“You Sir Purr?”
Devin
Ugh, okay, moving on.
You question it, but Vic Fangio now has two more timeouts for his heaven jar
— Patrick Daugherty (@RotoPat) September 15, 2020
Devin
Overlooked in the Vic Fangio meltdown was that the Monday Night announcers spent the last ten minutes of the game berating Fangio for not trying to run the clock out on a one-point lead. And then as soon as Denver punted they started berating him for not calling timeouts to extend the game. Do you even hear yourselves guys?
John
Almost makes me miss the Dennis Miller days.
Devin
We gotta get Brian Griese out of the booth. Maybe Jon Gruden can hire him? He’s probably still better than Nathan Peterman.
Devin
Can I make a confession, John. I’m getting tired of the name “Zero RB.” Did you know you can now draft one RB and that’s still zero RB? You can draft two RBs and it’s still zero RB! Give me a strategy that lives up to its name, please, is that too much to ask?
John
So what is your preferred strategy then?
Devin
I’ve been heavy on the A.J. Green strategy this year.
John
Oh, okay, so this is just where you make sure you walk away from the draft with A.J. Green?
Devin
No, A.J. Green hasn’t been healthy in three years. It’s where you start out Adams, Jacobs, Gurley, Ridley, Evan ENgram. It’s right there in the name, c’mon keep up, John.
John
That was a quite a set-up for that disturbingly-plausible-late-draft-slot joke. I’m just gonna post a good joke now. A palate cleanser, if you will.
Devin
Whadja tweet, John?
More like Alvin Chimera – this guy's part GOAT!

Half man, half amazing. Okay, I’m-a posting my-a Moor-ay tweet.

Ok, we’re going off the rails here. Folks, please check out the new episode of The Solis Report, everywhere podcasts are found. Dev, you want to talk some trades?
The McIntyre Report
Devin
Yes, indeed! In this segment, we’ll talk some trades, and take a look at some players whose value might be changing. If you have trade questions, send ‘em in! Hit us up on twitter @devinmci and @solisreport.
This wouldn’t be the McIntyre Report if our first undervalued player wasn’t Jared Cook.
