You're listening to the Upper Hand Fantasy Podcasts now. Here's your host, Faraz Sadiqi and Zach Rosuto.

A little bit of news I just dropped. Taylor Heinecke has been named the starter for the Falcons.

Wow. I am trying to see right now if it's just for this week. Knowing Arthur Smith, I can't imagine that he's going to tell you guys like, hey,

uh, Arthur Smith explained the decision to go with Taylor Heinecke after saying on Sunday that they didn't bench Desmond Ritter because of performance.

Uh, but yeah, for this week against the Vikings, it is going to be Taylor Heinecke.

And you know what that means that basically means that you have a new potential streamer because it is a pretty good matchup for Taylor Heinecke, you know, and like he has the weapons.

Drake London is dealing with a groin injury right now. So we'll see what his practices that practice statuses are throughout the week.

But when he's healthy, I kind of feel like this is an upgrade for him, right?

Um, you know, when, you know, he did have a, a Y receiver won in Terry McLauren last year, right?

And, and Terry McLauren, if I'm not mistaken, I'm looking at it right now. He averaged 15.6 fantasy points with Heinecke last year.

So not bad at all, right? He could, so London could get an upgrade here.

Um, this, this offense can get an upgrade. This passing offense can get an upgrade.

The accuracy was a real issue for Desmond Ritter. Um, just, just real quick, just 30 seconds on this real quick question.

What are your thoughts in this move? Do you think this improves the Falcons offense number one and number two?

Do we have a little bit more fantasy relevance out of this team?

100%. Um, absolutely. You saw in just the sorts shorts that when he came in last week.

It just feels like, I mean, which is crazy to save because Desmond Ritter hasn't been bad.

But like, you watch the Falcons and you feel like there's so much left on the table with, with a roster.

Um, I mean, say what you want about the head coach, but I think from a quarterback standpoint, and, and we're talking fantasy upgrades to Cal Pits and Drake London.

I think you, they do get an up, I think they do get an upgrade, right?

You saw in just the shorts, then he started targeting Cal Pits more. He was pushing the ball down field.

Um, I think that's what you need. Um, when you're looking at a fantasy quarterback and fantasy offenses, I would give them an uptake 100%.
