The week every fantasy manager hopes to play in has arrived. All that prep beginning in June; all those best ball drafts in July; all the pods and articles consumed in August; all that excitement in draft season; all the grinding through waivers on Tuesday nights; it all pointed to this. Week 17. Fantasy Football Championship Week.

Congratulations, you've made it to your fantasy football league's championship game. Chances are that way back in August, you drew part of it up like this. You targeted Jonathan Taylor in the first round. You ranked Davante Adams as the #1 receiver. You struck for players like Cooper Kupp, Deebo Samuel and Javonte Williams in the middle rounds. You had a good feeling that if you were in this spot, they'd be the ones to carry you.
But let's be honest. Part of it you didn't plan. Devin Singletary? Boston Scott? Ronald Jones? Dare Ogunbowale? All of those guys can be trusted to varying degrees in Week 17. Beller, Chris and Brandon discuss that, and a whole lot more, on this episode of The Athletic Fantasy Football Podcast.

It's the final Beat Writer Tuesday of the season on The Athletic Fantasy Football Podcast. Bo Wulf (Eagles), Jay Morrison (Bengals) and Daniel Popper (Chargers) join Beller to discuss their teams from a fantasy perspective.
With Miles Sanders (hand) out again, what's the look of the Eagles' backfield for Week 17? Can Joe Burrow and the Bengals offense carry over their Week 16 explosion into this week's matchup with the Chiefs? Has Justin Jackson played well enough to carve out a meaningful role for himself alongside a healthy Austin Ekeler? Our beat writers answer those questions, and a whole lot more.

We know that there are some championship berths hanging in the balance, but let's be honest. Saints-Dolphins is about as inconsequential as a Monday night game could be for fantasy purposes. The vast majority of fantasy managers heading to their league's championship already know that they're on their way.
Some surprise players might have helped them there. Guys like Joe Burrow and Justin Jackson and Amon-Ra St. Brown. On the other hand, they may have advanced despite Week 16 duds from Tom Brady or Saquon Barkley or Keenan Allen. Can they count on the Week 16 ponies to keep rolling? Can they rely on the Week 16 phonies to bounce back? Beller, Jake and Funston dig into that on this episode of The Athletic Fantasy Football Podcast.

Jake and Funston are here to help you answer those questions. Is Ronald Jones an automatic start? What should we expect from Tyler Huntley? Devin Singletary or Joe Mixon? Is Justin Jackson an RB2?
