PodcastWeek 7 Fantasy Football WR Rankings: Breakout Candidates & Risky Starts (Ep. 22...October 22, 2026

From the episode

McCarthy did actually look really good last week. Like, we should probably give him a little grace. Like, young quarterbacks often struggle. Maybe he's learned something just kind of sitting and watching for a while.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

McCarthy looked good last week; young QBs often improve with experience.

Looked really good last week; young quarterbacks often struggle but McCarthy may have learned something sitting and watching. Things may become easier for him this season. His performance against the fierce Houston Texans defense will be closely analyzed over the next couple of weeks while the Giants are on bye in week eight.
