Summary

Week 16. For the majority of leagues, the fantasy football championships. Seasons came to an end today. Trophies won or lost.Sure, there's Monday night, but many 'ships were secured on Sunday. Speaking of Sunday, most of the day was dominated by the news of Todd Gurley not playing against Arizona. C.J. Anderson started in Gurley's stead and delivered a league-winning performance — were you able to snag him off the waiver wire? (1:00)Speaking of league-winning performances, the Saints-Steelers game turned out to be a fantasy wonderland. Antonio Brown delivered another legendary outing, while Alvin Kamara erupted on the ground and through the air. Fantasy players with assets in that game definitely had a chance in their title games. (21:20)Liz Loza, Matt Harmon, and Scott Pianowski discuss those performances and more in this week’s fantasy wrap podcast.They also asked you for your fantasy football resolutions for 2019. As you can imagine, many people are averse to drafting David Johnson again, while others are looking to secure the services of a legit tight end (George Kittle, anyone?). (26:00)In the world of college football, our experts Dan Wetzel, Pat Forde and Pete Thamel will be doing a live edition of the Yahoo Sports College Podcast the Friday before the National Championship game at the Uproar Brewing Company in San Jose, California. The show is free to attend, there will be tons of prizes and giveaways, beer specials and custom brews for both playoff teams.Go to yahoosports.com/collegepodcast to RSVP and get more info!Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz @LizLoza_FFFollow Scott @Scott_PianowskiFollow Matt @MattHarmon_BYB See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Hello and welcome to the Yahoo Sports Fantasy podcast.

0:05.8

It's me, Liz Loza, and I am joined as I am on every Sunday night by Matt Harmon and Scott Pianowski.

0:12.4

It's week 16 and we are celebrating.

0:15.9

Even if we don't win, we're celebrating.

0:18.3

It's good that we're here finally at the finish line.

0:20.8

You got oxygen on your on your mouth.

0:23.5

I feel like Lynn Val Joseph after that touchdown run earlier in the season.

0:28.1

Yeah, it's exhausting.

0:29.3

The NFL season is the shortest, I feel like, of all the sports, but it definitely

0:33.4

feels like the longest.

0:35.0

There's just so much that happens.

0:36.5

There's so much information that smacks you in the face on a week-to-week basis. But I don't think anybody really cares about our struggles here. No, but it's such a visceral game, right? I mean, most of what happens, happens in a six-hour segment. You know, condensed 80 to 90% of the week is in that six hours. And, you know, you have highs, you have lows, you have all

1:17.7

what the headlines might be tomorrow.

1:23.9

Buddy! Well, I'll start... That makes me laugh.

1:28.9

I'm sorry.

1:30.4

I'll start with my headline, and it came to me right away as soon as Brett asked for it, because it had me thinking, as I'm watching Twitter, you know, melt down over this.

1:40.4

My headline is C.J. Anderson adds another layer.
