Falcon Crest (guest: Jim Coventry)

FantasyPros - Fitz on Fantasy

After Dr. Deepak Chona (@SportMDAnalysis) begins the show with this week’s injury update, host Pat Fitzmaurice (@Fitz_FF) welcomes in Jim Coventry (@JimCoventryNFL) of Rotowire and the Sirius XM Fantasy Channel. The defending champion of the illustrious King’s Classic fantasy league, Jim talks about how his title defense is going so far. Then, Jim and Pat discuss the Atlanta offense and whether Arthur Smith is being unfairly scapegoated for the disappointing fantasy seasons we’re getting from Kyle Pitts and Drake London. Jim and Pat take a close look at the Bengals, what’s made their offense click in recent weeks, and how they might fare without star WR Ja’Marr Chase. They also examine the fantasy value of Aaron Jones and assess whether Justin Fields has done enough to be considered the Bears’ QB of the future.

Jim explains how he first got into fantasy football and how he ended up as an analyst. He and Pat also hit on some Chicago culinary topics, including Chicago-style deep-dish pizza, Italian beef, and Chicago hot dogs. Jim and Pat take a closer look at Christian McCaffrey’s role in the 49ers’ offense and whether he has league-winning potential in fantasy football. They also discuss Leonard Fournette, Tua Tagovailoa, D’Onta Foreman, Greg Dulcich, Antonio Gibson, and the Rams’ running game, and Jim talks about some of his biggest hits and misses of 2022.
