In this edition of The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast, Todd uses Thursday’s night’s Steelers blowout of the Panthers as yet another illustration of a new trend. Either you have players capable of enormous games or you are simply not in any conversation for a fantasy championship. Simply piecing together a lineup of guys who you hope will get you 8-10 points just does not work in 2018. Just ask the fantasy owner playing the guy who started Big Ben and McCaffrey and is already down a minimum of 63 points before the Sunday games even start. Todd answers your emails at
