Ekeler's Edge: ID'ing second half bounce back fantasy players

The Chargers and Austin Ekeler have roared back to life the last two weeks so no better time to identify the biggest fantasy bounce back candidates for the second half of the season with the L.A. RB and Matt Harmon in the latest edition of Ekeler's Edge.

But first the two recap the Chargers dominant performance against the Jets on MNF and the bad beats caused by Ekeler's late TD. The two then discuss the significance of Chargers WR Keenan Allen eclipsing 10,000 career receiving yards and what makes him a special route runner.

Harmon also gets Ekeler's perspective on Josh Dobbs' heroic performance for the Vikings in Week 9 and how hard it is for anyone to step in and play QB for a new team in a pinch. The two then update the Ekeler Invitational fantasy league where both got Ws in Week 9.
