That's Not A Winning Formula... or Chiefs vs. Patriots - 9/6/17

The first interview edition of the podcast in the 2017 season. PodVader will present interviews every Wednesday through the season to compliment the weekly previews (Thursdays) and recaps (Monday mornings). This week, it's all about Week 1.

Josh Brisco (@jbbrisco on Twitter), host of Roughing the Kicker podcast and Almost Entirely Sports on ESPN Kansas City, acquiesces that the Chiefs will lose this first matchup. But Pod wants to go somewhere else first - Patrick Mahomes. Josh is excited about the future and Pod is still not sold. They discuss what should Chiefs fans be looking for if they're going into this game accepting a loss. 

Next (around the 18:45 mark), Matthew Freedman (@mattftheoracle), Editor in Chief at Fantasy Labs and RotoViz podcast producer, jumps in as Pod's first opponent in the BlogTalkRadio Fantasy Football Expert League. They discuss their matchups and which players they have their eyes on. They also talk about the concept of "Expert" leagues and the strategies to take going into Week 1 of the season.

Finally (around the 34:43 mark), Nick (Chiefs) and Patrick (Patriots) go at it in the first SuperFan Battle of the season. Both fans think this is going to be a close game. Nick thinks the Chiefs will win (of course) while Patrick says the Chiefs will have a shot, only to blow it with bad game management (of course). 

Pod wraps things up with his thoughts on the game Thursday night. Invites Buccaneers fans to step up and represent their team on the podcast. Just send an email to nextfanup@gmail.com
