Welcome, everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone, the lead fantasy

0:18.5

analyst at The Score, and we're going to get right to it today. We're to recap the notable injuries from week five. We're going to take a look ahead to the top waiver wire pickups as we shift our focus to week six here. And we also have to discuss the Panthers shifting their focus to a new head coach. Matt Rule is out. So the guy who was most people's pick to be the first coach fired, turns out we were all right.

0:38.8

The Panthers 1 and 4 at the bottom of their division, tied for the worst record in the league,

0:43.6

and really not showing any signs of hope, really any signs that they're going to get it right.

1:29.9

It's not great and it's too bad because the offensive lines added some new pieces.

1:34.7

You got a couple really strong skill position players and Christian McCaffrey and DJ Moore.

1:38.8

And the defense is all right.

1:40.3

Before this week's game against the 49ers, Carolina's defense was holding tough.

1:44.0

They just weren't getting much help from the offense.

1:45.9

So in terms of what this could mean for the skill position players there and the fantasy assets on the
