Hello, I'm Matt Harmon, and welcome to the Ahoo Fantasy Football Forecast, presented by Planter,

0:06.6

satisfying your snack cravings for over 100 years.

0:10.5

I'm joined by Dalton Del Don Dalton.

0:12.6

Do you know what satisfied me today in particular?

0:16.1

No, but I'd love to hear her.

0:17.0

What was that, Matt?

0:18.1

I think what satisfied me most was the comparisons that were going around

0:24.1

on monday night football about drew breeze um and 2015 Peyton manning um and i saw those comparisons

0:33.5

being tossed around obviously i decided to make a nice, horribly photoshopped meme about it.

0:39.2

But let me ask you, man. Like, I feel like that is a perfect comparison, right? Like, I think that

0:45.4

Drew Brees 2020 to 2015 Peyton Manning is like a one-to-one comp. And basically, the beauty of that comparison is that it's not entirely mean,

1:23.4

Well, Harmon, is someone who is in on Cam Newton and Josh Allen this year, you have a lot to be satisfied about through two weeks.

1:29.6

We'll get to that later.

1:30.6

But, man, what could not have gone better for you so far with those two?

1:35.1

Drew Breeze ranks bottom three in the next gen completion and above expectation stat.

1:41.2

He is, as he made one pass, 20 yards downfield yet.

1:44.3

And this is kind of a continuation to the final three or four games last year,

1:48.7

which I did not pay enough attention to.
