Hi, I'm Liz Loza, and this is Facts versus Feelings.

You're a moose-boosh to fantasy focus.

We are bringing more fantasy, more facts, more feelings, and of course, more fun.

And now that I have your attention, today's fact is that mistakes are fine as long as we learn

from them.

Producer Presley is here because what is facts versus feelings without a little lock, stock from a smoking control room? Wow. Wow, Liz. I do get that reference and that's one hell of an intro. I don't think I deserve that intro. Probably not. But it's good to be back. Week 1 is in the rear view. Thank God. A lot of mistakes made on my part in week one. Speaking of mistakes then, what is the biggest mistake you've ever made been in week one? Okay. And in fantasy. Yeah. Fantasy therapies for later. We don't need to be going into my life mistakes. But fantasy mistakes, week one. Yeah, not for this episode. That's a different

podcast. Week one fantasy mistake this week. I think the biggest one, actually, there's two. One, I left Keon Coleman on the bench, but I think that was a valid decision. I had other people ranked higher that I played and they just, they just didn't perform. We had a lot of studs turned into duds this week. I did switch out a couple QBs for Trevor Lawrence because I've been, you know, I trusted Joey. Joey, if you're listening, I jumped on board, man. Joey Wright, get back to that episode, hot take that Trevor was going to be it. And in week one, he was not it. All right. Well, we don't love that, but what we do love is when people like and subscribe to this video.

So please, if you're watching, make sure you go ahead and do that.

And if you have questions, if you need to work things out, if you want to learn and maybe discuss

your mistakes, since Dave is so reticent to talk about the breadth of his, you can go ahead and leave us a voicemail.

Can you tell them the number? Because I can never remember it.

Yeah, sure. I can definitely do that. You remember? 914. 348. 1-8-9-3.

There we go. Nailed it. Hit the disclaimer.

Fantasy football is a game of inches, luck, and irrational confidence. Proceed with caution, trust your gut, and remember. Side effects of listening to this podcast may include spontaneous victory dances, mal-trash-talking, and the belief that your sleeper pick is better than everyone else's. Take the facts of fantasy football seriously, but consult your feelings before making any lineup changes. When I'm wrong, I say I'm wrong. I wasn't the only one that made a mistake in week one, Liz. I think the entire industry made some mistakes in this preseason and in week one rankings. Some studs, some duds, and one of those players that I think we need to talk about, you already have listed here, and that's Justin Herbert. Yes, because I don't think we made a mistake about Justin Herbert's talent.

We made a mistake about his utilization.

We believed that Jim Harbaugh would stick to this run-focused mentality.

And instead, I mean, maybe this is evidence that people can change.

He let his big armed quarterback absolutely sling it.

The Chargers managed a pass rate of 69%. The sixth highest in the NFL in week one. Here's an interesting nugget. The Chargers were the only team in the top nine that won their game. The other eight teams were all trailing and so they were naturally passing more. That is an incredible harbinger of possible things to come, but it's not just that Herbert

only did it with his arm.

He also showed off his mobility.

He had seven rushes for 32 rushing yards.
