    Fantasy football
    Danial dopp is the best. This is my dream job
  • Disappointed in new team
    Projections segment
    Obviously doesn’t work on podcast. Can’t follow without whatever numbers you are projecting on screen. Do better!
  • Jeff CBC
    Update this podcast!
    This is so budget! They are using the same antiquated format since Matthew Berry was on it. In fact his pic is still posted and he hasn’t been on in years. Also, the advertisements cut right into the conversations without warning. Isn’t there a program director or something??
  • juliesaddler
    J K Dobbins
    My review is a question. What can we expect if anything what are we going to see from Dobbins this year. Released? Won’t play? Stud some how? You guys are awesome keep up great work
  • Ramulous
    Please stop
    Please stop having any shows without Field Yates and my goodness please give us less of Daniel Dopp. He seems like a decent guy but jeez he’s so corny.
  • ScottBD
    The 8 ball says “Try again later”
    Been listening since the TMR/Nate/PodVader days. And appreciate the attempt (perhaps need) to shake things up, bring others in w/ other lenses, but it does end up sounding like a lot of unnecessary singing the praises of others. I’m sorry to say this is no longer my go-to podcast for fantasy content. Doesn’t mean I won’t still tune in sometimes, but hoping for better.
  • JimmyInReview
    Daniel dopp stop drop open up shop
    Daniel a g man dude is the best
  • Thayern97
    Finally stopped listening
    Not a lot of good takes. Half the show is usually field and sooo bashing mike clay or salivating over Liz. Feels creepy
  • Fantasy football 4 life100
    Field Yates CA all-time bad take
    Ekeler over mccaffrey preseason take is ridiculous. Every casual fan knows mccaffrey is an all-time great and mccaffrey wouldn’t actually give time to Elijah Mitchell under normal circumstances. Thank you Stephanie bell. Second, kupp is indispensable in the rams playoff run. Field Yates assumed Sean Mcvay and the rams would be out of the playoff race by now and therefore one of the best receivers in recent fantasy memory would be of no concern. Field Yates was so wrong about the players in California that I really question his takes on players around the country.
  • RblackDC
    Field… lay off the caffeine…
    …or whatever other substance you might be using — but with your constant insufferable interjections and interruptions with whomever you're hosted with (co-hosts or guests), I'm done. Unsubscribed.
  • DerrFreemz
    No good
    Poorly done
  • BuffVevery1
    Favorite Fantasy podcast!
    I’ve been an avid Fantasy Football manager for a few years, and I have tried listening to different podcasts, but this one is my favorite! It’s made me a better manager, and it doesn’t have the bro-y vibe that others do. As a listener, I don’t feel like I am being talked down to, or that content is going over my head. If you’re new to Fantasy Football, or if you are a woman who is interested in a podcast that will make you love the game more, this crew is perfect!
  • Babytiger123
    More, Field, Clay, Bell MUCH less Dopp please
    With all due respect, Dopp does an ok job bringing up questions that everyday fantasy players have, but WOFF on a lot of his takes. Who to start, rankings, and things like that I am getting very hesitant to trust and a lot of his ideas are not stat based like Field and Clay. The one and only take you need for proof. Start Zack Wilson over joe burrow….. burrow went off, Wilson didn’t score ten points. Shocker Also gotta say I kind of like last year format to the show. I know you guys had game previews and they were Sunday afternoon or late Monday Sunday Thursday night. Those while it is good to get an initial take I see why you got rid of them but the shadow report clay use to do and how little he is on the show now is a bit of a bummer because him and field together make a good team and they are both stat guys. Feel like this year it’s only skimming the surface on a ton of fantasy news and players you could be talking about. Keep up the good work. I know a lot of that was negative but hopefully it’s constructive. Nov 27th best episode of the year!!! No Daniel, Mike and Field on point with pulse mixed in 💯
  • Marbella Capital
    Only Mike Clay
    Is worth listening to since Berry left. There is still no chemistry between the analysts. The cadence is too fast. it doesn’t make things more riveting to me. It just gives me a headache. I’m sure Field is highly qualified to talk about football (not so sure about Dopp’s claim to credibility to be in the same conversations actually). However, I think the main issue is that the show does not gel and there’s no fun… it all feels a little forced frankly.
  • Steph is the best 30
    Best podcast in the world
    What the title says
  • Gmoneydog
    Sadly downhill
    Mike Clay and Field Yates are the only good things about the show. No longer a daily listener as I typically can’t stand Dopp asking pointless questions or getting in arguments with himself
  • KiloStilo
    Too much sidetrack conversation
    Only reason I listen to this podcast daily is for the insight to benefit my team. Half the time they skip key players due to side talk and meaningless conversations…Mike Clay is that know it all guy and always has to correct people so I def understand why he’s always picked on. Fantasy Footballers is a much better podcast. This one fell off hard!
  • pier runner
    Mike clay mvp
    I honestly wouldn’t listen if it wasn’t for mike clay and I get there doing a bit by bashing mike all the time but I think he’s the best analyst and the others just hate on him.hey field don’t be a yater
  • speedydave24
    Not worth your time
    If you want to listen to Field cough for an hour and Daniel shout questions with obvious answers as if he just can’t figure out the answer on his own then this is the podcast for you. The good information hides behind the paywall. Mike and Stephania are good when they’re on which isn’t a lot. Check out the Fantasy Footballers. The content is voluminous.
  • tkaner9
    Berry is gone!!!!
    Matthew Berry leaving has been a godsend. Field Yates, Daniel Dopp, Mike Clay, and Stefania Bell are incredibly entertaining and talented.
  • Calliesammie
    Dopp?
    Please let me know when dopp is gone. Maybe I’ll consider listening again. Please help Mike with his grammar.
  • AGoodMan122
    Solid show, please stop with clickbait titles
    Solid show. Usually good advice. Mike Clay and Stephania are especially good when on. Can you please stop with the ALL CAPS clickbaity episode titles? Annoys me every time it comes in my feed and makes me not want to listen
  • Steel City 2
    Constantly interrupting
    I wish they would give each other a chance to finish their sentences before interrupting each other.
  • Atman8888
    Lost their way
    The good: Field Yates is very sold, knowledgeable, but not overbearing. Fair takes. Stephania Bell solid in the medical lane but has range beyond that. Mike Clay really knows his stuff. Liz Loza not present much, usually paired with… The bad: Daniel Dopp is awful. Does not know his stuff, makes painful mistakes that have to be corrected by the others. He somehow thinks he can make up for it by taking over the exaggerated role that Matthew Berry played but he can’t pull it off. Just comes across as annoying. Getting worse as he increasingly plays the center host role. Being off to the side for an occasional bit may be OK, but this is switch-it-off bad. Update: Dopp continues to distract, adds no insight, go to move is just yelling in amazement at awkward times. I try and skip forward when he comes on.
  • edac024
    Who’s that squirrel?
    Absolutely one of the best podcasts to listen to if you play fantasy football. Definitely one of the most consistent outlets to garner perspective on draft strategy, top starts/sits, and waiver wire adds.
  • arkthemanark
    Trade
    Should I trade A kamara for mike evans and Najee Harris some one is asking me to trade in yahoo fantasy.
  • TylerAlberti1020
    DK lineups
    Ever since they stopped doing their DFS show with Al me and by buddies checked out on the podcast. Losing Matthew now this was it. I know they want people to watch the television show is why the do it on their now but no thanks
  • Drock031323
    They were once good….
    I used to like them. They have great takes and good info, and Stefania is the best injury expert out there. Seriously though they need to stop ripping off other podcast. It’s annoying and the bits they’re ripping off are bad. If they were copying something and doing it better that might be one thing, but they’re poor recreations of good bits. I will continue to listen to the Fantasy Footballers, the show they’re clearly taking there gags from. Fantasy Focus be yourselves and do better!!!
  • charlton pat
    I’m out
    This whole show needs a revamp - so much talent at ESPN and we get field and dope?
  • M_jay68
    Fantasy lineup’s
    Please bring back your cash and tourney fantasy football lineup’s like last year. Still a great show.
  • bradleyy martynn
    Fields mic
    Why does fields sound like he’s talking into a styrofoam cup. He needs a new mic or back off of it. His voice used to sound so clear in the pod
  • UG1918
    Half the cast
    Love Field, Stephania, and Mike. Fantastic analysis. But, Dopp knows less than a homer in a small town 8-team fantasy league. How long will you all continue to let the guy explain his mostly incorrect and baffling fantasy takes by yelling at the top of his lungs? I love his love-all attitude and how nice he seems, but I just don’t think he was qualified for the job. He was a great producer.
  • like a boss😎#1
    DFS show?
    Love the show but where is the DFS show?
  • Jamal7
    Field Yates is excellent, not much else is
    I need someone to explain to me how Dopp got and is retaining this role. Seems like a nice guy, but……
  • Djdbvg
    Not good at all anymore
    I really respect Field, Stephania, and Mike Clay. Mathew Berry is who originally had me watching and listening. But I find myself not tuning it all all anymore and it’s almost 100% because of Daniel Dopp. You gotta replace him or just cut him out. Let him be the producer. But he’s single handedly ruining all the rest of your credibility. This show has become a afterthought to me. I played D-1 Qb and am very knowledgeable when it comes to football. I respect all your opinions aside from him. To have him ruin it for the rest of you is terrible. Just get him off and put someone who is deserving of the spot. He went from the producer and forced himself on over the past 3 years or so. He may be a great producer, but there are MANY other fantasy experts who’s resume is 100x better. It’s a disrespect to you guys, and the others who are more deserving. He is also making the rest of you less credible when you don’t deserve it. ESPN is really turning into a joke and this type of thing is why. Please reconsider this decision to put him on the show and give it to someone who’s resume deserves it. There is no possibility that there aren’t better candidates that can take his spot. This shows favoritism and takes a job from someone who earned it rather than used their position to take it. Sorry if this hurts feelings, but what is worse is when more qualified people don’t get jobs because of people with the inside track that take them away from others. This is a legitimate problem.
  • Darth Kanaka
    Good analysis, lots of overlapping speaking
    Just be the 06010. Stop trying to be the fantasy footballers. You are what you are. Good analysis.

    BEST COMEDY POD 4R
    Love this podcast, yal have the best analytics and like that u can respectfully disagree providing different rationale behind why. I really do find myself laughing out loud at you all. Making me laugh when I wanna cry every time I see Kupps name collecting cobwebs in my IR spot - is definitely a major accomplishment !! As a woman obsessed with football, i appreciate yal for talking to me in a way that none of my male friends will bc they’re still perplexed and my lady friends are just thoroughly annoyed. Saying all that to say, this podcast is 10/10, much much appreciated ! Best comedy pod ever
  • reslly123
    Where was the selection show?
    I was looking forward to the show where Mike, Daniel, and Al Z. provided the lineups for the week. They had it last year.
  • Jay4568745
    Great show BUT
    Hey guys great show! I will say field you need a new mic it just sounds like one loud mufflers noise when you talk. Gotta hear the nuggets.
  • Nickydelta
    Decent show, arrogant hosts!
    Been listening to this pod for many years, but today changed things for me. When Field Yates went on a rant about how he hates when people DM him and ask him for fantasy advice, I was forced to write a poor review. Listen man, you work in FANTASY FOOTBALL. Do you realize how many people in just the USA are struggling to find work? You should be GRATEFUL AT ALL TIMES to have a cushy job doing what you love. Help people out as much as you can! What will it take, 30 seconds to answer a question? Doesnt matter if it’s someone you barely know. They took the time to reach out to you. BE BETTER! You know who aren’t arrogant jerks like this? The Fantasy Footballers. Even the guys over at CBS havent showed that level of disconcern and elitism. Look in the mirror and thank God that you have that job. Rant over.
  • giantGman2
    Dopp
    Stop screaming . His Voice is annoying enough to listen to at a normal level
  • Proprietor of The Rage Cafe
    The outro theme songs…
    How come Field doesn’t have a theme song????
  • MattyIce718
    Why the hate?
    I’m a Jets fan and I am offended! I love the show, but how do you do a whole episode on stacks and not even mention the Aaron Rogers-Garrett Wilson stack? Wilson is going to have a breakout year and Rogers should be able to throw 30-35 TDs with 12-15 of those going to Wilson. Huge oversight by you guys.

    I’ve been listening since the days of Pod Vader, Matthew Berry and Nate Ravitz. Even with the changes over the years, this is still a great podcast. Also rashaad white is a baller

    Love the show
    Best FF podcast there is. And rachaad white is cool
  • Beatlejuice10
    Credibility tanking
    The more we see players collapsing on the field without proper coverage from the media, the less credible you all become. Still waiting for y’all to address the elephant in the room.

    Best FF pod out there
    Consistent Fair Fun Knowledgeable Outside-the-box thinking Collaborative. So much nostalgia with this podcast. Love these 4 and how they work together. Berry was fun but he lost his swag in the last 2 seasons. Very pleased and recommend to everyone. Keep it up!
