Colt and Luke get together again to talk about the latest Monday night doubleheader, the latest injury to befall a budding Chiefs star, and a particularly appealing crop of waiver wire running backs in our Week 5 waiver wire episode.
Luke does not mince words about a certain underachieving Atlanta Falcon.

Other than Mclaurin who would you pick as a Skins receiver?

[@FantasyFootballIndex]

Tough question. My official answer is gonna have to be nobody; the Commanders have seemingly deliberately assembled a cast of 'super subs' at receiver, none of whom have been asked to step up for more than a quarter or two at a time so far - and that has worked out pretty well. Through four weeks Daniels has thrown it 23-30 times a game and is not pushing the ball deep to anybody but McLaurin, and letting this group of misfit toys pitch in for 30 yards here, 45 yards there is giving the passing game a 'greater than the sum of its parts' effect. That being said, if somebody steps up that will change and Olamide Zaccheaus putting 6 catches for 85 yards in barely a quarter's worth of snaps last week in Washington's surprise beatdown of the Cardinals is easily the biggest statement any of the other guys have yet made. In a wide open passing game with an ascendant QB, he's worth a turn on waiver wires tonight. But if the Commanders win their next game or two it's also quite possible that Washington trades for reinforcements. 'Davante Adams to DC' rumors will definitely be hot and heavy for the next couple weeks...

Very annoying how one guy is loud and the other is quiet.
