The Slumpbuster Ep 125: Jags Fire Meyers, Kyrie's Return, Ewers Transfers to Texas & NFL Week 15!

Welcome in Slumpbusters! On this episode the Slumpbuster podcast, Ju-Ju & Kyle give you the latest sporting headlines in the world of the NBA, College Football and the NFL.
The first year of the Steve Sarkisian era in Austin got off to a rocky start but things are looking up. One of the biggest moves in the transfer portal to this point is former top prospect Quinn Ewers leaving Ohio State to return home. Ewers looks to compete with Hudson Card for the Longhorns starting quarterback position. Ju-Ju gives his thoughts on the new Texas quarterback.
Urban Meyers time in Jacksonville was short lived and marred by distractions. The Jaguars decided they could no longer stand by Meyer after former Jags kicker Josh Lambo accused Meyer of kicking him during a pre-season practice. Meyer will leave Jacksonville and presumably the NFL with a 2-11 lifetime coaching record. Jacksonville offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell will take over interim coaching duties to conclude the season.
Kyrie Irving has not stepped on a basketball court the entirety of the 2021-2022 NBA season. This was due to a public health law from the State of New York that would prevent the unvaccinated Irving from playing home games for the Brooklyn Nets. Initially the Nets took the stance that Irving would either be a full-time player or would not play for the Nets this season. After deliberation it would appear Brooklyn has caved and Irving will make his season debut as soon as next week. What does this say about Irving, the Nets and the title possibilities of several teams looking ahead?
We conclude giving our week 15 NFL Predictions and Previews for the following games:
New York Jets +9.5 @ Miami Dolphins
Washington Football Team +6.0 @ Philadelphia Eagles
New England Patriots +2.5 @ Indianapolis Colts
Tennessee Titans +1.5 @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Green Bay Packers -7.0 @ Baltimore Ravens
Enjoy the Show!

Quarterbacks: Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson suffered an injury to his ankle against the Browns. If Lamar misses time Ju-Ju & Drew offer some replacements that could fill the QB1 responsibility. Is Patrick Mahomes a must-start against the Chargers in week 15?
Running Backs: James Robinson has experienced a rift in recent weeks with Jacksonville coaches. Can Robinson return to a RB1 or is he best on your bench for the foreseeable future? Austin Ekeler also suffered an ankle injury this past Sunday. Is Justin Jackson or Joshua Kelley the correct Chargers back to start?
Wide Receivers: DK Metcalf continues to derail fantasy owners lineups since Russell Wilson's return. Should Metcalf be started on name recognition alone? Brandon Aiyuk is finally out of the doghouse and Deebo is in the backfield. Who is the correct San Francisco 49ers wide receiver to start at WR1?

Slumpbuster FFB Ep. 50: Trust Your Bills? Kyler's Disappoints, Amon-Ra St. Brown & week 16 steamers!
Welcome in Slumpbusters to another episode of the Slumpbuster Fantasy Football Podcast. Ju-Ju & Drew review NFL Week 16 and help identify trends to help you win your league. Got a line-up question? Drop it below in the our YouTube comments and we will be more than happy to assist or follow us @slumpbusterpodcast on Instagram for updated rankings weekly. #FantasyFootball #DailyFantasyFootball #DFS
Quarterbacks: Jared Goff and Russell Wilson have favorable week 16 matchups. Should you consider starting Goff, Wilson or even Baker Mayfield? Tyler Huntley has filled in admirably for Lamar Jackson but will he maintain QB1 status for a third week in a row? Josh Allen has struggled in his career against the Patriots. Should Allen owners continue to start him regardless of matchup?
Running Backs: James Robinson was a Top-10 running back in his first game without Urban Meyer as head coach. Will Robinson continue to succeed in a favorable week 16 game against the Jets? Both Melvin Gordon and Javonte Williams have been pivotal parts of the Denver offense. Which Broncos back should you start? Leonard Fournette suffered an injury against the Saints, can Ronald Jones take his place as a guaranteed RB1? Was Craig Reynolds a mirage or a legitimate asset against the Falcons?
Wide Receiver: Odell Beckahm Jr. has played well since coming to the Rams. Is OBJ back to being a startable fantasy wide receiver? Amon-Ra St.Brown has been receiving double-digit targets for three consecutive weeks and faces a weak Falcons defense. Is there a case St. Brown is a set and forget starter? Should you start Stefon Diggs?
