| 0:00.0 | The Lions came crashing back down to Earth while the errands of Green Bay soared on Monday night football. |
| 0:10.1 | That plus the top waiver wire targets for week three next. |
| 0:15.6 | Welcome to fantasy football today in five, the podcast that gets you cut up on everything you need to know for your fantasy leagues in just five minutes. I'm Chris Towers here with Frank Stample. Let's break down |
| 0:26.0 | Monday's Packers blowout win over the Lions. Frank, I'll give you the first word. Give me one big |
| 0:31.9 | takeaway from the Packers in this one. Yeah, I think it was all about the Arons, which you obviously |
| 0:36.3 | led with here. Aaron Rogers |
| 0:37.6 | gets back on track, 255 yards, four touchdowns, 9.4 yards per attempt. Had a really nice throw |
| 0:44.0 | deep down the field to Devante Adams in this game. Adams did not score, but I thought that |
| 0:48.2 | he looked pretty pretty good. Eight for 121. It's a solid game. But Aaron Jones is very clearly |
| 0:53.6 | the biggest takeaway for the Packers, |

| 1:13.9 | So that tells you how good that team was this week. |
| 1:18.3 | Yeah, one thing that I want to point out in this one is one, |
| 1:23.4 | Aaron Rogers kind of a fluky, good fantasy game because what, |
| 1:28.5 | at least two, maybe three of those touchdowns to Aaron Jones were of the pop pass variety inside of, two of them were definitely inside of the five. So, you know, you'd take, |
| 1:34.5 | you'd take some good luck to make up for week one. But with regards to Aaron Jones, the one thing |
| 1:39.6 | that really stands out, AJ Dylan only had five carries and one target in this one. That is bad news for |
| 1:45.3 | all of the teams where I have AJ Dylan stashed and was hoping he could emerge as, you know, |
| 1:50.0 | potential RB2 or flex play, even when Aaron Jones was healthy. Doesn't look like that's going to |
