Welcome to the fantasy throw down podcast bringing you the latest in sports news fantasy analysis and opinions don't forget the hot takes can have a sports show without hot takes these days.

What about hot cakes though? I want some hot cakes these days. What about hot cakes though? Mm, I want some hot cakes. Now here's

your host, ready to jump into the thick of things. Dwayne calendar.

Hello and welcome to the show. I got to be honest folks. I had a whole show planned out with going into detail about the football games today, talk some MBA, talk some other NFL news with hiring, maybe

get into a little hockey as well with the Premier League to boot, but honestly, I was so utterly disgusted.

And I mean, just fed up with watching the early game today with the San Diego and I'm not even going to call

them the LA Chargers because like it's a joke they are the same old San Diego chargers just utterly, utterly pissing the bed against the Patriots.

Like to be perfectly blunt, the chargers could not have executed a worse game plan to pull off a

playoff victory in Foxborough. That was the single worst game plan I have

seen against the Patriots in at least five years in terms of teams just getting their asses handed to them.

I couldn't believe for the life of me

that with an entire week to prepare,

yes, I know you played on Sunday,

but you had a full week to prepare that the chargers would

roll out the same lazy defense with 7 DBs that they used against Baltimore last week. Yes, playing zone against Tom Brady.

It's one thing when you're playing zone against a rookie QB making his first career

playoff start that's not used to playing in the pocket like Lamar Jackson that's running

what essentially amounts to a college offense with a triple option.

That's one thing where you roll out 7 DBs and you're just trying to fly to the ball.

It's an entirely different matter when you're playing

against the New England Patriots with Tom Braney who reads zone defenses like the back of his head.

A zone defense is going to do absolutely nothing
