Fantasy football strategy, rankings, and podcasts

10/21/14, Wow.. the Jaguars can win, after all!

Welcome to week 8! We're more than halfway through the fantasy regular season and it's been an awesome ride, as is tradition. We started out the show going over some of the headlines from last week - check out my breakdown of Week 7.

We started a new segment where we will be betting on trends. Each week, we will spot a few trends and decide if the trends will keep going, or if the player will buck the trend. We will bet 5 drinks on each outcome. This week our results are: Denard Robinson - continue trending up; Zac Stacy - Jason says he'll score over 8, Dave says he'll trend down; Jay Cutler - continue trending down, less than 20 pts for sure; Allen Robinson - continues to trend up, around 12 pts again; Justin Hunter - continues to trend down; Travis Kelce - continues to trend down, less than 6 points; New England D/ST - Dave says 10 or more points, Jason says they will score less.

We also fielded questions from the peanut gallery this week to help you with waiver wire and start/sit decisions. To ask questions that we will answer on the show, tweet us @drinkfive, hit us up on our  Facebook page, or shoot us an e-mail. Finally, we placed a bet for next week's beers. In Dave's eternal struggle to not have to buy a Zach Ertz jersey, he is betting against him again this week. Dave has Jordan Reed in standard scoring against my Zach Ertz. May the loser buy fine beers and the winner enjoy them mightily.

Make sure to join us next week, live at 9pm CST on blogtalk radio (blogtalkradio.com/drinkfive). Feel free to send us your questions and we'll answer them on the podcast!
