From the episode

Zay Flowers. Yes. It does not make a difference who the quarterback is. I feel like we've seen a completely different Zay Flowers this season in 2026... he has been able to unlock Zay Flowers' ability after the catch... This week was the third instance this season in which he has cleared 100 receiving yards in the first half of the game alone.

STACKED’s take

Flowers transformed in 2026 with 100+ yards in first half; unlocked beyond slot.

Zay Flowers has been completely different in 2026 compared to any other point in his career, unlocked by offensive coordinator Declan Doyle who has expanded his role beyond the slot to the perimeter and moving him around the formation. In week 7, Flowers cleared 100 receiving yards in the first half alone—the third instance this season of that feat—and the source notes last year's biggest complaint was lack of touchdown production, suggesting potential for improved scoring this season.
