Week 14: Bad Luck Banter, Nasty Clunkers, and Fantasy Darlings

The fantasy football playoffs are looming, and the Ball Bros Don't Lie crew is here to vent—and analyze! This week, we're diving deep into the collective misery of our 2025 fantasy seasons, where bad luck and unforeseen calamities have plagued our rosters across the board. We're sharing our biggest fantasy woes and acknowledging the brutal, beautiful chaos that is this game, as well as a couple of BRUTAL fantasy trades from seasons past. We also take a moment to wallow in the shared agony of our real-life teams' disappointments.

But enough self-pity! It's Week 14, and there are seasons to save. We turn our attention to the upcoming slate, previewing all the must-watch games. We're pointing out the "Nasty Clunkers"—the matchups that promise low-scoring, fantasy-killing ugliness—and, most importantly, identifying our "Fantasy Darlings"—the players we expect to smash their projections and carry your teams into the postseason. Tune in for the usual analysis, heated debates, and plenty of brotherly commiseration!
