Christian McCaffrey got hurt in week two in 2020.

0:07.2

He makes it to week three.

0:08.6

Leaves with a hamstring injury.

0:10.0

We'll react to that.

0:11.2

Everything else from Thursday night and look ahead to the weekend right now on Fantasy Football Today and Five.

0:16.3

I'm Adam Azer with Dan Schneier.

0:18.7

And a tough night for fantasy football fans, of course,

0:22.1

with Christian McCaffrey leaving early in the game and giving way to Chuba Hubbard and Royce Freeman.

0:27.0

But it's a hamstring strain for McCaffrey. We do not know the severity yet.

0:30.8

Chuba Hubbard is rostered in 44% of leagues. I'm going to get Dan in here now, Dan.

0:36.8

What do you think about Hubbard going forward? If you had Fab, would you spend most of it? Do you think he'll be good in any type of extended absence for Christian McCaffrey? Your overall thoughts? I don't mind what I see from Hubbard. I don't think this will be a Mike Davis situation. We already saw Royce Freeman get one red zone carry. We saw Chuba Hubbard drop a red zone pass. That's not a good sign. He's not Mike Davis in a lot of ways. He's not built like Davis. He doesn't have the experience. He didn't play that kind of role in college. That's one thing I do like about him. Davis was also somewhat of a workhorse at South Carolina and Chuba as well. I wouldn't blow my budget on him unless I was the

1:12.1

McCaffrey owner. But if I'm the McCaffrey owner, I'd probably do it. I still, but I'm not sold

1:16.2

that we're seeing another Mike Davis part two. Okay, what were your other takeaways from this game?

1:20.3

As someone who was playing against Sam Darnold, I'm a little annoyed. I don't feel like he really

1:26.2

deserves 25, 26 fantasy points,

1:28.9

but he got two rushing touchdowns.

1:31.5

Now, he should have had a receiving passing touchdown.

1:33.8

Chuba Hubbard did drop one in the end zone.

1:36.1

But this is three games now with 21 or more fantasy points.

1:40.7

Look, you know, he fumbled twice, both times recovered by the Panthers. He missed some big plays, but whatever. He's making it happen. And he's got Dallas next week. What do you think? I liked what I saw from Darn. I agree with you, a little bit of luck from the fantasy point standpoint. As Adam chokes a death over there, I hope he's okay. But he did compete, I think it was five, either five or six passes of 20 plus yards, which is a really good sign. That offense in general is cooking with Brady. I thought the big takeaway for that offense wasn't Darnold, though. It was DJ Moore. I think we can safely say he is the number one this year. That is coming to fruition. That breakout is happening. Yeah, so is it time to drop Robbie Anderson? Oh.

2:20.2

Two target, two targets. that is coming to fruition. That breakout is happening. Yeah. So is it time to drop Robbie Anderson?

2:19.5

Oh. Two targets tonight. I know. The volume's just simply not there. I think it,
