Scott Barrett's data puts JJ McCarthy first in hero throw rate at 7.9% and worst in turnover-worthy throw rate at 5.7%.

1. Top-10 Takeaways with Pete Nova of PlayerProfiler reviews NFL Week 11 fantasy football, which Nova calls "probably the worst week for fantasy football all season." 2. Nova hosts solo, answers live chat questions in a mailbag after the 10 takeaways, and says the show runs about 30 minutes. 3. The core thesis is that injuries, bad weather and poor quarterback play produced a week no one projected, so Nova tells listeners to "chuck it in the bucket" and move on. 4. Takeaway one lists injuries: Michael Penix may need total knee reconstruction and is replaced by Kirk Cousins, Drake London has a sprained knee with a two-to-six-week estimate, and Calvin Ridley has a broken fibula. 5. Takeaways two and three cover rankings and Minnesota: Nova would rank Jahmyr Gibbs above Bijan Robinson in dynasty and put Bucky Irving or Omarion Hampton ahead of Ashton Jeanty, and he cites Scott Barrett's 7.9% hero throw rate for JJ McCarthy. 6. Takeaways four and five cover George Kittle's 24.7 PPR points on six catches, 67 yards and two touchdowns, and the Denver backfield, where Jaleel McLaughlin is the clear backup ahead of Tyler Badet. 7. Takeaway six covers the Chargers' meltdown, in which Justin Herbert, Quentin Johnston and Keenan Allen combined with others for under 15 PPR points, and Nova's observation that the team travels poorly for early East coast games. 8. Takeaways seven through nine cover Nico Collins at 7.3 receptions per game with Davis Mills, Trey McBride's 10 catches and seven touchdowns, and Tet McMillan's 8 catches for 130 yards on a 26.7% target share. 9. The final takeaway lists backup surprises: Sean Tucker scored three touchdowns for 34 PPR points, Kenneth Gainwell scored 29.5, and John Metchie finished WR15 with 13.5 points. 10. Fantasy football managers who follow weekly start/sit and dynasty advice will get the most from this episode.
