It is the week five fantasy film room. Nate Tice joins me to look at the top 12 at each position right now and try to identify some overperforming players that we are buying into. But first, we got to talk about three running back injury situations. Buck Irving, who is the guy behind him in Tampa Bay to get Arizona? Trey Benson going on IR, do either of those running backs appeal in fantasy football?

Rico Dowdell, is he the guy behind Chuba Hubbard? If he has to miss this week, then we dive into overperforming running backs, overperforming wide receivers, quarterbacks, tight ends.

All of it is coming up on today's show. Let's get into it. What's going on, everybody.

Welcome to the Yahoo Fantasy Forecast, presented by Toyota, the official automotive

partner of the NFL, who's all in all season. Join me today to talk a little ball because it's a hell of a day to talk ball. It's Nate Tice. Nate, what's going on, man? Not too much. Good to see you. I'm feeling I had a shower run a little long before this show. So there's a little scrambling, but we're good to go now.

No one can tell. Ducks on a pond, aren't we, Matt Harmon? But no, happy to be here in week five. Week five. It's got a week five feeling to it, especially I, we were talking,

peel back the curtain here for, yeah, it's got, it's an, it's an October feeling for sure. A week five, an October feeling. Pull back the curtain here for yeah it's it's an it's an it's an October feeling for sure a week

five an October feeling pull back the curtain here we were talking before the show

it's like it's been one of those days um you know just just a little like the internet's weird

Twitter's weird Twitter is a buzz about you know Shador Sanders miming through a media scrum. They're a buzz

about one of these running back situations that we're going to talk about, which I am,

I'm always consistently amazed at my, my peers and my colleagues in the fantasy space,

that they have a strong take on certain particular situations when I couldn't find a single one for you. So honestly, hats off to them. It's been a weird day on the internet. It's been a weird day in real life. That's going to make for a fun show. That's going to make for an entertaining show is my prediction, based on the things we were saying before we got on air here. So since it is going to be an interesting show, we thought this was a perfect

time at the first quarter poll of the season. Who knows at this point 17 games if it's really the quarter poll. But when I worked back at NFL network, that was beat into us. You know, the quarter poll. Okay, four weeks in, the quarter poll. That's what they're, we have to do so many quarter poll content things so I'm still talking about it we figure this is a good time to look at the top 12 at each

position in That's what they're we do so many quarter poll content things. So I'm still talking about it.

We figure this is a good time to look at the top 12 at each position in fantasy football.

I'd do some surprises and see if we're buying these starts or if we're not based on how

these guys are actually playing in the teams that they're playing for.

Then we're going to talk through a, again,

speaking of weird, a very weird looking Thursday night football game between the Rams and the 49ers

B squad. But before we get into all that, before we dive into the fantasy film room, we do have

some running back injury news to discuss, starting with in Tampa Bay, Bucky Irving spotted in a boot on Wednesday.
