FANTASY WINNERS & LOSERS: Ranking AFC's 9 new notable offensive coordinators & play-callers

·32 min·1 clip

Brian Daboll and Cam Ward could turn the Titans into the AFC’s most improved fantasy landing spot.

1. Locked On Fantasy Football ranks nine new AFC offensive coordinator and play-caller hires for their fantasy impact. 2. Vinny Iyer hosts solo, Michelle Magdziuk is off, and Vinny says he writes about NFL fantasy and betting for SportingNews.com. 3. The episode’s question is which AFC coordinator changes create the biggest fantasy winners and losers for 2026. 4. Vinny places Bobby Slowik at No. 9 because Miami has Tyreek Hill gone, Tua Tagovailoa uncertain, and De’Von Achane left carrying the offense. 5. He puts Frank Reich at No. 8 with the Jets because Aaron Glenn’s staff still faces quarterback questions and an uncertain Breece Hall decision. 6. Todd Monken lands at No. 7 because Cleveland’s offensive line, Quinshon Judkins timeline, and quarterback options like Malik Willis and Shedeur Sanders remain unresolved. 7. Vinny says Monken’s Baltimore-style system should favor the run, but he cannot identify a clean fantasy path yet. 8. Eric Bieniemy returns to Kansas City at No. 6 while Andy Reid keeps play-calling duties and the Chiefs seek better running back production. 9. Vinny repeatedly mentions Kareem Hunt, Isiah Pacheco, Brashard Smith, and Jeremiah Love as part of the Chiefs backfield conversation. 10. Declan Doyle ranks No. 5 because he comes from Sean Payton and Ben Johnson’s staffs and now works with Lamar Jackson in Baltimore. 11. Vinny thinks Doyle can keep Derrick Henry effective and may push the Ravens toward more varied personnel groupings at receiver and tight end. 12. Mike McCarthy takes No. 4 because he will call plays for the Steelers and brings a résumé that includes the Packers, Cowboys, and two Super Bowls. 13. Vinny says McCarthy’s arrival should help Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington, and new passing-game ideas around Aaron Rodgers. 14. Clint Kubiak comes in at No. 3 after moving to the Raiders with Seahawks quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko. 15. Vinny links Kubiak’s balanced approach to Ashton Jeanty, Brock Bowers, and the possibility of rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza winning a strong fantasy landing spot. 16. Mike McDaniel ranks No. 2 with the Chargers because Justin Herbert, Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Omarion Hampton fit his passing-game concepts. 17. Vinny emphasizes that McDaniel no longer has to manage everything himself because Jim Harbaugh handles the broader team structure. 18. The show uses a countdown format with sponsor breaks, fast transitions, and repeated references to team fits, rookie QBs, and fantasy usage. 19. Best for fantasy football managers tracking AFC coaching changes. 20. Skip if you want game recaps instead of offseason roster fits.
