Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (18) is congratulated by tight end Tyler Higbee (89) after scoring against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, Oct. 27, 2019, at Wembley Stadium in London.

It’s our weekly fantasy sports podcast with Jeff Erickson of Rotowire.

This week is crucial for a lot of fantasy owners. How should they navigate through such a heavy bye week? I know I’m getting pinched. If you are too, Jeff has some advice.

Also, it’ll be interesting to see which Los Angeles Rams get any points against that splash-play Steelers defense. Cooper Kupp may be one guy. And Jeff has an off-the-board candidate to watch, as well.

There’s a big “honey pot” conversation, too. We kick around the idea of overplaying rosters of teams going up against soft competition and how sometimes that can be a pitfall.

For those of you in gambling pools, the concept of playing the under has become increasingly popular. We tell you why.

Then there is the Antonio Brown saga. Who would ever pick him up and why?

All that and more as we prepare you for a busy Week 10.
