This is an IHeart podcast.

It's a Monday fantasy live edition of the fantasy football podcast.

I'm Patrick Claibon, and I'll be joined by Adam Rank and Cynthia Freeland. We'll go through all the Sunday's top performers, plus whose stock is rising and who you may want to part ways with. And it's time to start our midseason awards, which rookie tops the list through the first half of the season. Hey, everybody. Welcome to NFL Fantasy Lab. Patrick Claibon. I Adam Rink and Cynthia Freeland. We've got one more game in week nine, meaning when it concludes, we'll be at the mid-season. So we got mid-season awards to give the people because we've done the research and the people want mid-season awards. They really do. You know who wants it? The producers. We've run out of ideas. No. No. We want awards. The people want awards. Everybody wants an award rank. You even want an award. Best Dad Award. Best Soccer Coach Award. You know, there's a lot of awards everyone wants. Everyone wants an award. Yeah. In fact, why don't we dole out some awards right now? We'll get into our Sunday studs.

The guys who went off in Sunday of week nine, and we will start with a guy who is back,

But in any event, Brock Bowers was amazing. 13 targets in this game. Props to Gino Smith, who once Brock Bowers returned, he's like, hey, we're not going to ease him into the lineup. We're just going to continue to go after him. He caught 12 of those

or 12 of the 13 targets, ended up with 127 rushing yards in three receiving touchdowns.

It is so great having Brock Bowers back. And if you were able to survive over the last couple of

weeks without him, you sincerely enjoyed his return on Sunday.

Well, this guy's been playing, but sometimes he doesn't come up for us.

And he seems to be really, really found this past week, Drake London.

In London?

Yeah, okay.

Yeah, we know.

We know.

It's friends time always.

But ultimately, Drake London had a great week against the Patriots, nine receptions on 14 targets, 118 yards, and three trips to the end zone. It kind of makes up, it's so interesting because, you know, look at him, his performance over the course of the season. You're like, there's been some really big ups and some very big downs. So this is a big up.

Maybe next week in Berlin, we'll see another one. Yeah, you know, it's one of those things.

A lot of ups and downs like Monica and Chandler's relationship, which started in London.

Oh, dude. Let's talk about Caleb Williams, though. Career high, 38 plus fantasy points against the Cincinnati Bengals,

threw for 280, had three touchdown passes. He also had 53 rushing yards, but one of the

most impressive things was the 22 receiving yards and a touchdown. He is the first player
