Chargers 47, Browns 42. Bills 38, Chiefs 20. Five straight missed field goals in Packers-Bengals. Two more teams putting up 40+ points. And there's still one game left on the slate! Week 5 was, by far, the craziest week of the 2021 NFL season to date.

Beller, Jake and Funston are here to break down all that craziness on this episode of The Athletic Fantasy Football Podcast. The guys discuss the Seahawks offense without Russell Wilson, Adam Thielen's touchdown dependence, trustworthiness for Leonard Fournette and Damien Harris, and the continued headache that is the 49ers backfield.

They also dig into the Week 6 waiver wire, and consider the trade prospects for a handful of intriguing players, all of whom could reasonably be on either side of the buy/sell divide.
