The Best Defense is a Great Defense

Balls In the Gutter: A Fantasy Football Podcast ·

2026/10/09

Our fantasy teams are off to a slow start a third of the way through the season, but all-defense is a bright spot for some reason. It turns out we're dealing with a historic amount of injuries and bye weeks are about to make it even more interesting. We also look at the NFL teams off to slow and quick starts and try to figure out if they'll continue.

Injuries and upsets continued in week 3 of the NFL. We share how our fantasy teams are holding up and the level of panic for players like Drake May, Jaylen Waddle, Brian Thomas Jr, and pretty much all of the Chargers. We also share our thoughts on the Raiders, Packers, Buccaneers and other surprising teams.

The injury bug has officially struck with Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Jaxson Dart, Nico Collins, Dallas Goedert, and so many more going down in week 2. Weather also affected several games and we saw power swings in the NFL standings. We are trying to figure out what to do with our fantasy teams after a couple tough weeks and what we think of teams like the Colts, Buccaneers, Chargers, Texans, and more.

What Did We Learn From Week 1 In The NFL

Balls In the Gutter: A Fantasy Football Podcast ·

2026/09/19

We got our first real action and look at NFL teams for the 2026 season. Since the first week is known for overreactions we try to figure out what we can actually know from the results of week 1. Are the Bears, Giants, and Jaguars true contenders after big wins? Are the Chargers and Rams frauds after getting upset? Why are the reactions wrong about the Broncos, Saints, and Buccaneers? We try to figure it all out, but it's still just the first week. Twitter: @BallsNTheGutter

Big Ole Predictions for NFL Kickoff

Balls In the Gutter: A Fantasy Football Podcast ·

2026/09/11

It's finally time for real NFL football. We go over how our remaining drafts went, which players we've been drafting more often, which teams we've been avoiding getting players from, and the swings we're taking on sleepers. Then we get down to business and guess how the season is going to go. Who will be the top teams, worst teams, surprises, and Super Bowl winners? We have no idea, but we enjoy trying to figure it out.

2026 Fantasy Draft Season Is In Full Swing

Balls In the Gutter: A Fantasy Football Podcast ·

2026/09/04

We had another live draft to break down and news to talk through. The Rams have built a superteam, but will they win the Super Bowl? Will the Browns ever find a QB? Which teams are the biggest mystery? We also talk fantasy drafts and why we have opposite strategies at RB, how TE depth is getting crazy, and what to do about QBs.

Super Bowl LX Reactions and Offseason Preview

2026/02/12

Sam Darnold and the Seahawks are Champs, and we give our thoughts on the big game. The only surprising part may be how accurate we were about how the Super Bowl would go, but that doesn't mean we didn't enjoy it (or does it). We break down the game, talk a little about NFL Honors, and lingering news. We also dive into early offseason speculation... Will Stafford or Rodgers retire, who will get franchise tagged, who are the most sought-after free agents, and what is the league going to do when there

We didn't record in time for the Pro-Bowl but we don't mind. While not fully official, we know who the Cardinals, Bills, and Raiders head coaches will be, but not how it will impact the teams. For our main event, we hand out our fantasy awards to the best, worst, and most meh contributors this season. Finally, we give our last and final thoughts before the last game of the season.

We had a defensive standoff in Denver and a scorefest in Seattle to determine our final two teams. In the end, the Patriots outlasted the Broncos and the Seahawks outscored the Rams. We react to the games, more coaching decisions, a very odd Pro-Bowl schedule, and early Super Bowl thoughts.

It was a weekend full of fumbles and interceptions but the Broncos, Rams, Patriots, and Seahawks managed to survive to fight it out in the conference championships. Has this playoff field been inferior to the last few seasons? Will Bo Nix's injury make it an anti-climatic AFC Championship? Is Seattle the best team left?

2025/12/24

After a week of questionable calls, more injuries, fights, and both the #1 seeds in the league losing, we are wondering just how much crazier this season can get. We are also nearly completely wiped out of the fantasy playoffs with little hope remaining. I guess we'll just have to enjoy the holidays and look forward to the real NFL playoffs. We will be off next week, but see you in the New Year! Sponsor: PrimeTimeSportsTalk.com Twitter: @BallsNTheGutter Bluesky: @ballsnthegutter.bsky.social

The first round of fantasy playoffs can be brutal, just like the NFL season. The playoff picture is getting clearer with more teams getting elminated with the Chiefs, Falcons, Bengals, and Dolphins all getting the door slammed shut on their hopes.

Every top team lost on Thanksgiving/ Black Friday, and now the Eagles, Chiefs, Ravens, and Lions are all struggling. Are we finally willing to believe the Bears, Broncos, Patriots, and Jaguars are for real? Well... maybe not real, but if every team has major flaws, someone still has to win. We are also already losing in some fantasy playoffs, but luckily the main slate is just around the corner.

The NFC is stacked in the west and primed for an Eagles implosion. When it comes to our teams and fantasy... WELL.... we are doing our best. Go Broncos and Go Raiders (according to Lane) and Go Chiefs (according to Lane's obiligations) and Go Panthers? The Rams don't need our help....

Not everyone survived week 11 in the NFL, with Michael Penix and Aaron Rodgers both getting injured. We also got a Shedeur Sanders sighting and Jacoby Brissett is setting passing records. The Chiefs, Lions, and Ravens are currently outside of the playoff picture, while the Bears, Broncos, and Patriots are division leaders. Needless to say, things are pretty crazy this season, and our fantasy teams are struggling to survive all this chaos but we still managed to make it to the playoffs in the Scott
