Matt and James dissect some interesting Week 3 matchups across the board, including Garrett Wilson up against a beatable Lions secondary, Terry McLaurin's tough draw against Seattle and another smash spot for JSN.

Matt and James recap Week 2 across the NFL with thoughts on Denzel Boston impressing for a second straight week (03:00), the Bears' confusing target tree (13:30), some quality early season play from the Raiders (31:00) and some not quality play from the hyped up LA Chargers (39:00).

We are making our way to Week 2 as Matt and James share their thoughts on this Chiefs offense and their lack of receiving playmakers (03:10), Jaylen Waddle's usage in his Bronco debut (17:45), Matthew Golden's big role in Week 1 (29:40), the Bills going downfield often to DJ Moore & Dalton Kincaid (35:30) and perhaps a rising role for Jack Bech in Las Vegas (46:45).
