We’re onto Week 7. Lock in for Danny, Danny, and Craig to preview the week with one stat for every game.
Jayden Daniels and Dan Quinn still don’t know what they’re doing. But we do. Here’s what’s aged the best through Week 6 in the NFL.
Danny, Danny, and Craig open with the latest on Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts’s season-ending situation (01:15), and the Indianapolis Colts firing GM Chris Ballard. Then, the DDC get into waiver wire adds at every position ahead of Week 7 (!) in the NFL.
CJ Stroud is so back. Kenneth Walker is still a PROBLEM. Nine 2.0 already has Heifetz head over heels. I can’t stop thinking about Blake Grupe flying, spinning through the air. Lock to hear Danny, Danny, and Craig run through all of the Sunday games from Week 6.
Danny, Danny, and Craig preview every game ahead of Week 6 with one stat for all 13 matchups, starting with the Eagles hosting the Panthers.
