Does it know about fantasy football? Welcome to another edition of the around the NFL podcast presented by the United States Marine or my name is Dan Hanzes.

I'm joined in a room filled with heroes Mark Cessler Chris Wessling and Greg Rosathol what is up boys? Hey Dan.

I mean let's be real about something what?

Most of us have stepped off the idea of playing fantasy football right we don't I play it.

But if you just dropped any one of us and I'm not trying to be a braggart here into a group of civilians and gave us time to prepare draft and work on a fantasy team week to week.

We would incinerate individuals. That's how I feel. It doesn't feel not true. It is entirely one. I'll tell you one thing that you're showing

a lack of understanding of I will have a follow up to that comment.

Um you are still completely on some level vulnerable to things that you cannot control even if you have a great draft like for instance I'll use my own team this year where I am buried in the standings where I drafted Ben Rathelsberger and juju Smith Schuster and T. Y. Hilton and X. Y. Z.

And you know sometimes things don't work out you know Carson Wentz made perfect sense as a draft pick for me on my I'm just I never talk about your fantasy team but in this case I'm letting you know that you could pick a great team in August and you could supplement it with pickups during the year but it could really haunt you where you can't have a dominant team.

That you and I are different the last time I participated I dropped an absolute megaton bomb on nine other.

Hottie individuals who thought that they were all that I played under the guys of my wife's identity and absolutely obliterated the competition that was five years ago I've not touched it since I was going to say do it again.

Well no because then my then my theory would be blown to bits I come in seventh place I don't actually think it does that I'd be that good almost always I'm in the playoffs and competitive and that is obviously the help because of all the

NFL work we do but you're not in you're not involved on invulnerable you just not I would I you know when we did fantasy west we would often say.

Or I would at least you know the most important.

Equation a part of fantasy is luck it's just like gambling like 65 70% of it is luck and the really good players you work on that other 30% which over time gives you a pretty significant.

You know advantage but in any one given season forget about a great disagree luck is mostly the thing also.

One other thing we learned is that fantasy football analysts aren't really great at fantasy football.

Not all of them some are some are good summer bad you're right you're right you can you can join an expert league and win right away if you're good at fantasy football.
