NFC West Trinity Score Breakdown (2026): Puka, JSN, Trey McBride + Cardinals WR Debate

February 18
1h 17m

Episode Description

We wrap the NFC divisions with NFC West Trinity (Episode 5)—breaking down every team’s fantasy environment heading into free agency using the Trinity Tracker on ddfantasyfootball.com. We start in Arizona with the big questions (QB play, new OC, and the Marvin Harrison Jr. vs Michael Wilson market gap), then hit the Rams’ concentrated offense and why their tight end room is still a trap. We finish with Seattle’s post-title outlook (JSN at the top, what to do with the WR2 chatter) and San Francisco’s wide-open pass-catcher room where Ricky Pearsall sits in a prime environment if he can stay on the field.
