1
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 1: Horns plus bass plus Friday equals the startam Centum Show.

2
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the latest edition of your Start Sits

3
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 1: for the weekend. I'm Marcus grad. He is Michael F. Florio.

4
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: He is the man who puts together the start set list,

5
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: which you can find every week at NFL dot com

6
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 1: slash Start Sit. Playoffs are upon as we are one

7
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: game into the Fantasy Playoffs starts. It does it get

8
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:34,480
Speaker 1: easier or harder this time of the year.

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 2: For me writing the article gets a little easier because

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,959
Speaker 2: I take less big shots because I'm like, hey, I'm

11
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 2: not gonna tell you to sit your studs in playoff season.

12
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 2: It's all about floors and stuff like that. So keep

13
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:46,639
Speaker 2: going with what's.

14
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 1: Got you here, all right. So we are going to

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: dive into the top starts and sits of week fifteen.

16
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: We're gonna tell you who's going to pile up the points.

17
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: Plus the Kawan Jones gonna stop by to help us

18
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: make some tough decisions as we get into a critical week.

19
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: Of course, we already have one game played. Apparently what

20
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas because the Chargers

21
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: got thumped and Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Tellusco

22
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 1: were let go by the Chargers on Friday morning, but

23
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: in the meantime we look ahead to the rest of

24
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,919
Speaker 1: week fifteen. We got some starts and sits at quarterback.

25
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: So Floria, let's take a look at your list of

26
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 1: start sid quarterbacks and who's up and who's down.

27
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 2: Justin Fields remains in play, as does Jordan Love. Matthew

28
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 2: Stafford is one of my favorite plays of the week.

29
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 2: I think Russell Wilson is a good start this week

30
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 2: as well. And some sits. I said, I don't take

31
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 2: a big as swings, but Trevor Lawrence and Jared Goff

32
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 2: are big names that I think you could try to

33
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: get away from this week. As Gardner Minshew has been

34
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 2: a popular streaming option. And then I know people like

35
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 2: to stream the Vikings quarterback like when it was the

36
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: Passionate and stuff. I'm washing my hands clean.

37
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: Of that situation altogether, you know. I know Adam Rank

38
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: was a little bit bold. Nick Bullen's made an appearance in

39
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: the Hype Train. I don't know that I could fully

40
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: endorse it, but I appreciate the thinking process there. But

41
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: let's go with Justin Fields, right, he has been playing

42
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: some really good football this year. The Browns defense has

43
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: been very good all year long. So who wins in

44
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: this battle of Fields versus the Browns?

45
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 2: I think it could be a little bit of each

46
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 2: but Justin Fields will finish with a good amount of

47
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 2: fantasy points in this one, twenty one or more in

48
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: four of his last five and like he just went

49
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 2: off last week for twenty five against the Lions. Why

50
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 2: because of what he gave you with his legs. And

51
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 2: I understand that the Cleveland Browns defense has been really,

52
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 2: really tough, but even if they limit the passing numbers,

53
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: DJ Moore are still gonna get his and I think

54
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 2: Justin Fields will continue to run the ball. And that's

55
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: what I'm about in the fantasy playoffs, I want to

56
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 2: say floors. So I think Justin Fields gives you a

57
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 2: save fifteen to sixteen points, and there's always the upside

58
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: that he could give you twenty twenty five because he's

59
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 2: Justin Fields.

60
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: There's still plenty of debate on whether or not Justin

61
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: Fields is a franchise quarterback, and that's a decision the

62
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: Bears have to make this offseason. It is certainly established

63
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: that he is a good fantasy quarterback that is no

64
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: longer up for debate. Jordan Love. We're still trying to

65
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 1: figure out what he is as both a real quarterback

66
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: and as a fantasy quarterback. But he's got a good

67
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: matchup this week against the Buccaneers.

68
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, last week he ran into the Devido family reunion

69
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 2: and things did not go well for him in New Jersey.

70
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: But I think I expect better results at home against

71
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 2: the Tampa Bay Bucks this week. Don't forget that in

72
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: the four games before last week's Monday night game, he

73
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: was averaging twenty two fantasy points per game, and then

74
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 2: the matchup. The Bucks have allowed these second most passing yards,

75
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 2: the fifth most fantasy points two wide receivers this year,

76
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 2: and their offense could put up some points as well.

77
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: So I think Jordan Love is a good option if

78
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: you're going you know, I'm not playing him over your studs,

79
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: but I think other than that, he's a good option

80
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 2: this week.

81
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: All right, So we're back in on Jordan Love, who

82
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: started the year well, kind of had a slump mid season,

83
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: has sort of the bounce back over the last few weeks.

84
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: Jared Goff, we keep saying it, he is an indoor cat.

85
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: He is playing indoors this weekend, but he's playing the Broncos,

86
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: So you seem like you're sort of outs on mister Goff.

87
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a something's gotta give narrative wise in

88
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 2: this game, because Goff at home awesome, But the Broncos

89
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 2: have been shutting down quarterbacks and I think the Broncos

90
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 2: defense wins out in this one. Since Week five, no

91
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 2: quarterback has got eighteen fantasy points against them, and in

92
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: that span they've played Josh Allen, c J. Stroud, Jordan Love,

93
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes twice. None of them got to eighteen. Plus

94
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 2: they are very stingy against the pass. Patrick Surtan is

95
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 2: probably gonna be all over Aman Ross Saint Brown in

96
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: this one. That being said, though, they've allowed the most

97
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 2: fantasy points a bunch of production to running backs, So

98
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: I think this is a Jamir Gibbs David Montgomery kind

99
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: of week. It could be one of those weeks where

100
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 2: the Lions win and you look, you're like, Jared Goff

101
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 2: had to play well, oh, I got twelve fantasy points.

102
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 2: I think the narrative like I could line up to

103
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: beat something like that.

104
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: This feels like a game where you know, golf gives you,

105
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,559
Speaker 1: like you know, two hundred and forty yards and maybe

106
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: a touchdown. There might be an interception thrown in there

107
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: somewhere as well.

108
00:04:58,839 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: He's been fumbling left and right.

109
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: I've been mister fumble thumbs over the last few weeks.

110
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: So maybe you stay away from Jared Goff if you can.

111
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: Those are the guys who are pitching it. Let's talk

112
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: about the guys who will be catching it as we

113
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: take a look at your start sit wide receivers for

114
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: week fifteen.

115
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 2: The Rams guys one hundred percent in play. Even if

116
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 2: you're like you're too obvious, you've been asking us if

117
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 2: you could start Cup and Buka for weeks now. I

118
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 2: think the Packers Jayden Reed and Romeo Dobbs both in

119
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 2: play this week. Courtland Sutton a sneaky option against the

120
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 2: not sneaky. I must start an option, I would say

121
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 2: Garrett Wilson as well. My sits Jordan Addison. I just

122
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 2: think that the floor and the upside is way too low.

123
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: Chris Godwin, if he plays, I think you sit him

124
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: either way. Adam Thielen hasn't been the same, and then

125
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 2: George Pickens is just unusable with Mitchell Trubisky.

126
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been rough with Trubisky at quarterback. Meanwhile, let's

127
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: talk about Garrett Wilson because I said earlier in the

128
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: week that you can feel good about your primary Jets

129
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: right regardless of who the quarterback is. Breece Hall is

130
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: still getting volume, Garrett Wilson is still getting volume, and

131
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: even though the Dolphins haven't been lights out lately, I

132
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: do think the Jets are gonna have to throw the

133
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 1: football to stay in this game with them.

134
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 2: Completely agree with you there, And he's coming off his

135
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 2: best game of the year. Zach Wilson is coming off

136
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: the best game of his career. And like Marcus said,

137
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 2: the Dolphins, even as banged up as they are, probably

138
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 2: gonna put up some points. So the Jets will have

139
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: to as well. And I keep saying it floor matters

140
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 2: greatly in the fantasy playoffs. Garrett Wilson has one game

141
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 2: this year with fewer than eight Fantasy points. It came

142
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: with Tim Boyle. He routinely goes off for double digits. Yeah,

143
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 2: I know last week was his first time topping twenty,

144
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 2: but he can give you a consistent and safe twelve

145
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 2: to fifteen points. And this ceiling is raised in this

146
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 2: one because they might be in catchup mode. Yeah, I

147
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 2: think you just keep riding with Garrett Wilson.

148
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, look, it hasn't been what we wanted

149
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: it to be because Aaron Rodgers wasn't there all year long.

150
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: But Jarrett Wilson's still getting plenty of volume. The only

151
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: Jets pass catcher you can count on. Meanwhile, we had

152
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 1: a stretch in the middle of the season where we

153
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: kind of were able to lean on Jordan Addison for

154
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: a little bit, having a pretty good rookie year. But

155
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: Nick Mullins is at quarterback, Justin Jefferson is back. This

156
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: feels like scary hours for Jordan Adison.

157
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I know right now the Bengals look like

158
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 2: a great matchup on paper. They've allowed the most yards

159
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 2: to wide receivers since Week ten. I don't care. I

160
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 2: want to avoid Jordan Addison this week. Last week four

161
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 2: point seven fantasy points, his third straight game in single digits.

162
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 2: He has not reached eleven in a game since Week eight,

163
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 2: and Nick Mullens came in relief last week with Justin

164
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 2: Jefferson not being out there. Through thirteen passes, one of

165
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 2: them went Jordan Addison's way. So with the volume probably

166
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: going to Jefferson and Hawkinson over him, I think it's

167
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 2: too risky just get away. In the Fantasy playoffs, we

168
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 2: got plenty to get into.

169
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 1: Of course, we still have running backs and tight ends

170
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: that we're going to dive into. Stick around, which is

171
00:07:49,840 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: getting started here on the Stardum Seu Show, Week fifth,

172
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: the team starts at running backs. Go.

173
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 2: Joe Mixon is far too good to get away, even

174
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 2: in a tough matchup. Same thing with James Cook, DeAndre Swift.

175
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about him. Zach Moss gets too much volume.

176
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 2: All of you guys are like, you keep telling me

177
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 2: to start Zack Moss, and I'm gonna keep doing it

178
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 2: as long as he's getting volume like he is. Same thing, wait,

179
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 2: Ezekiel Elliot, the volume is far too good to sit.

180
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 2: James Connor might sound a little spicy, will talk about it.

181
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 2: The Gus buss has to be parked right now. I'm

182
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 2: done trying to figure out which Texans running back in

183
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 2: a given week might get the volume. And Zach Charbonney,

184
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker is back, he is unusable for fantasy.

185
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Texans offense right now has sort of fallen apart.

186
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: Injuries have really killed that group. Unfortunately, it's been frustrating

187
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: to see. Meanwhile, in Philadelphia, DeAndre Swift, they're just weeks

188
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: with it just seems like the Eagles forget that he's

189
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: on the roster. But then he gets the ball and

190
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: he starts producing really really well. Great matchup this week

191
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks.

192
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing. The matchup could not be any better.

193
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 2: And I think it was in like week ten or

194
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 2: whatever on Fantasy Live I set to trade for Deandres

195
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 2: because I think he could be a league winner. Then

196
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,959
Speaker 2: the last couple of weeks, people have been like, this

197
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 2: is the guy that's gonna win us your league's thing?

198
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,559
Speaker 1: It is.

199
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 2: Since Week nine, the Seahawks have allowed the most rushing

200
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 2: yards and touchdowns since week ten, two running backs. Since

201
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 2: week ten, they've allowed the most receiving yards two running backs.

202
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 2: So whether it's on the ground or through the air,

203
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 2: I think DeAndre Swift can get it done. And they've

204
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 2: been trailing by multiple scores each of their last two games.

205
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 2: Now this is a week where they'll probably playing from ahead.

206
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 2: We know they like to run the ball with DeAndre

207
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 2: swift when they have a lead, and then look forward,

208
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 2: the Giants and the Cardinals are who he finishes the

209
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 2: fantasy playoffs with. You're starting him in both of those

210
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 2: and he still can win a bunch of people fantasy championships.

211
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,959
Speaker 1: All right, So hopefully the Eagles decided they need to

212
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: get back to the ground. I know it's fly, Eagles fly,

213
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: but occasionally it can be run Eagles run. That can

214
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:53,319
Speaker 1: work sometimes too. Last time we saw James Connor back

215
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: in Week thirteen before Arizona's by, I didn't like the

216
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: matchup against the Steelers. I thought it was, you know,

217
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: something worrisome. There are other guys taking opportunities. And then

218
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,719
Speaker 1: Connor goes out and has twenty five carries for a

219
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: buco five and two touchdowns. Any chance he does that

220
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: against the forty nine er Nope.

221
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 2: Will the Cardinals be having a two score lead throughout

222
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 2: the whole game this week?

223
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: Very doubtful.

224
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 2: They're probably gonna be trailing by multiple scores this game,

225
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: and that's what scares me. In their last five losses

226
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 2: that James Connor has played in, he has been held

227
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 2: to single digits, and all of them he has yet

228
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 2: to reach twenty receiving yards in a game this season,

229
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 2: so you can't bank on him being used heavily in

230
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 2: the passing game when they are trailing and then the matchup.

231
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 2: It's the hardest on paper. They've allowed the fewest rushing

232
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,079
Speaker 2: yards and the second fewest fantasy points per game to

233
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 2: BAX this season. There's multiple like Michael Carter could get

234
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 2: involved in the second half if they're trailing big. I

235
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 2: know he was awesome last week. I'm just my one

236
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 2: team where I have James Connor has a bye this week,

237
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 2: and I'm so happy because I would have hated to

238
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 2: have to start.

239
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: Him in this matchup. Yeah, it's just it's really hard

240
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: to feel confident about it. He had fifty two rushing

241
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: yards when these teams played back in Week four. Only

242
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: two running backs have had more than sixty yards against

243
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, and that came during the midst

244
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: of their three game losing streak when the defense was

245
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,679
Speaker 1: kind of scrambling for answers a little bit. Let's get

246
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: over to tight ends and look at some of the

247
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: guys that are on your start sit list for Week fifteen.

248
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 2: Who you got Trey McBride. I do not care about

249
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 2: the matchup. He is a must play. Same thing with

250
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 2: Evan Ingram. Tough matchup, you're still playing him. Isaiah Likely

251
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 2: is awesome, as is David and Joku as of late,

252
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 2: and then my sis Cole Comet spicy, but the matchup

253
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 2: is really tough against the Browns. Pat Fryer Mooth is

254
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: just unusable with Mitchrubisky right now, as are all of

255
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 2: these Steelers pass catchers. Tanner Hudson's been playing hot, but

256
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 2: the Vikings defense and Brian Flores is doing an amazing

257
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 2: job as of late. And then Hunter Henry don't go

258
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 2: chasing last week.

259
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 1: I mean, the Patriot's passing game has been really hard

260
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: to figure out. Hunter Henry maybe more difficult than anybody

261
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: else to really figure out there. But let's get back

262
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 1: to Isaiah Likely. I think I saw a tweet that

263
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: said he's basically ninety percent Mark Andrews, which, hey, look man,

264
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,679
Speaker 1: I will take ninety percent. Mark Andrews is better than

265
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: most tight ends. They are just like floating around out

266
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: there right now. So uh, the matchup's not bad. But

267
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: even then, I just I still think you ride with Likely.

268
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,439
Speaker 2: I complete completely agree. We've seen two games now of

269
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 2: Isaiah Likely. Without Mark Andrews in the first six targets

270
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 2: eight fantasy points, in the second h seven targets eighty

271
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 2: three yards, a touchdown, nineteen point three fantasy points, a

272
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 2: floor and a ceiling. Most weeks will be somewhere in

273
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 2: the middle. But if I told you you're a tight

274
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 2: end gonna give you around eight Fantasy points in a

275
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 2: one of his worst games and then gonna give you

276
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 2: over twenty could approach twenty in a good game, You're

277
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,679
Speaker 2: gonna want to start that player. And we know that

278
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 2: the tight end is such an important part of the

279
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 2: Ravens passing attack. I think not only do you play

280
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 2: likely this week, I think you could play him the

281
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 2: rest of the way in the fantasy playoffs.

282
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: I think absolutely The way he's gonna get volume means

283
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: that he's gonna be a viable option. Weird against the Jaguars.

284
00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 1: I think there have been four tight ends that have

285
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: had ninety or more yard than everybody else has been

286
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: under forty. So it's either like it's either you go

287
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: big or you do nothing at all against the Jaguars.

288
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 2: Please go big.

289
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: I'm guessing he's gonna be closer to the high side

290
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: of things. That's just my opinion about Isaiah Likely David

291
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: and Joku had a big game last week. The Bears

292
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: defense has been very, very good lately. But you still

293
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: believe in Joku this week?

294
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just think he's been simply too good to

295
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 2: get away from in fantasy football. Last week, two touchdowns,

296
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: twenty seven fantasy points. That was a season high. He's

297
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:32,839
Speaker 2: not gonna give you that again this week. I'll just

298
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: tell you that flat out, but double digit fantasy points

299
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 2: in seven of his last eight games. He is someone

300
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 2: that Joe Flacco, Joseph Vincent Flacco clearly has an eye

301
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 2: for in the passing attack. So I think this is

302
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 2: a week that you and the rest of the way

303
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 2: he's just been far too productive to get away from right.

304
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: Now, especially when like look, Elijah Moore has been up

305
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 1: and down, Amari Cooper has dealt with some injuries, and

306
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 1: Joku has been there and been consistent pretty much all

307
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 1: year long. And I feel like we haven't enough about

308
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: him the season he's having. It's kind of flown under

309
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: the radar a little bit. You mentioned Hunter Henry not

310
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: chasing the points. Look, the Patriots offense is already bad

311
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 1: and now they have a Chiefs team that is angry.

312
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,359
Speaker 1: This just seems like a really bad combination.

313
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelcey and co. Are gonna come

314
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 2: out and drop like fifty points on this Patriots defense

315
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 2: this week because they are upset and the Patriots they

316
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 2: might not get many points themselves. Look two things in life.

317
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 2: You don't go chasing waterfalls and touchdowns from tight end

318
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 2: twos in fantasy football, and he had two touchdowns last week.

319
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 2: The Chiefs have given up just three to tight ends

320
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 2: this year, and they rank amongst the bottom six when

321
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 2: it comes to yards allowed on the position and on

322
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 2: the season, and since Week ten, so just all year long,

323
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 2: they've been extremely stingy against tight ends. I know last

324
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: week you were like, oh, Hunter Henry played really well.

325
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 2: Maybe I want to start him in fantasy. No, don't

326
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 2: do it.

327
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: If you are streaming tight ends, please stick to the

328
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: rivers and the lakes that you're used to. Coming up,

329
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: Lakwan stops by to help us make some tough decisions,

330
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: plus taking a trip to Club dub We are joined

331
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: now by researcher Extraordinary and the birthday boy Happy Belated

332
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: to our man, Lakwan Jones Hey congratulations. Got a trip

333
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: around the sun, sir R thirty two in my shack year.

334
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: I gotta dominate next year. So there you go, rocking

335
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: the shack. Yeah. Anyway, we're gonna talk about some tough

336
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: decisions that folks might have in their fantasy lineups this

337
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: week as the playoffs get underway. So LQ, you are

338
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: up first.

339
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 2: Man.

340
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 3: Look, it's nasty in these fantasy streets right now, especially

341
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 3: at the quarterback position.

342
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: But Samhow he's a top ten fantasy quarterback.

343
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 3: Right now, and you gotta kind of lean on guys

344
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 3: that have upside like his ability to extend the play

345
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 3: with his rushing upside. He's a very good runner, efficient

346
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 3: runner six point one yards per carry, that's the best

347
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 3: among the quarterbacks. But I'm not quite sure if quarterbacks

348
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 3: aren't afraid to run against the Rams, or to mixture

349
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 3: between Aaron Donald blowing up the old line Byron Young

350
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 3: getting pressure. But the Rams are allowing the second most

351
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 3: rushing attenth for quarterbacks, and I think I could play

352
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 3: into Sam How's favor to get out of the pocket

353
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 3: get the extra yardage. I mean, being a good runner

354
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 3: is gonna have to happen for him, because like this

355
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 3: old line is not protecting him whatsoever. But I think

356
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 3: Sam how could surprise a few folks and kind of

357
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 3: do or die situations here where he can put up

358
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 3: some points and you could be okay with him.

359
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 1: It's been wild to think that he has been a quarterback.

360
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: We could lean on that he's top five in passing yards,

361
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: and yet we can't trust any of his past can

362
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: in this offense. That's been really, really frustrating, Florida. What

363
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: tough decision are you looking at?

364
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 2: I've been going back and forth all week on if

365
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 2: I should play Noah Brown or not this week, and

366
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 2: look there some help. We found out on Friday that

367
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: it doesn't look like c J. Stroud is gonna play.

368
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 2: So without c J. Stroud, I think you can go

369
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 2: ahead and get Noah Brown out of your starting lineup.

370
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 2: But it's hard because the Tennessee Titans have struggled against

371
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 2: wide receivers this year, they've struggled against the deep ball

372
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 2: this year, and Nico Collins isn't playing. So even with

373
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 2: Davis Mills, I'm sure you're thinking, like, good matchup, lots

374
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,679
Speaker 2: of volume. He is the deep threat for the Houston Texans.

375
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 2: Very boom er bust. But what I keep saying is

376
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 2: in the fantasy playoffs, Like, if this was Week eight,

377
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 2: I'd probably take a shot on Noah Brown, But in

378
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 2: the fantasy playoffs, I can't risk a zero. So I've

379
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 2: been going back and forth on it all week, but

380
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna sit him.

381
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,879
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just everything fell apart really quickly for

382
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: the Texans. Right Tank Dell breaks his leg, Nico Collins

383
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: dealing with a calf injury, CJ Stroud with the concussion,

384
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz has been banged up. It just has all

385
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: gone south in a really short amount of time, in

386
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: a hurry, speaking of guys being banged up, leaning to

387
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 1: tough decisions to a tongue of I looa this week

388
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 1: going against the New York Jets, and for the good

389
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: part of the season we were able to sort of

390
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: rely on Tua, and then we saw last week how

391
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: much exactly Tyreek Hill means to that offense. When Tyreek

392
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: got hurt, had to go out of the game for

393
00:17:55,760 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: a little bit, the Dolphins just could not move the football.

394
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,199
Speaker 1: Tyreek was able to come back a little bit and

395
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: it sort of got better, but you started to see

396
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 1: Tua he gets off platform, gets a little bit off schedule,

397
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: he gets some pressure in his face, and it was

398
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,919
Speaker 1: rough out there. Now he's got the Jets, who have

399
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: been fairly soft against the run, very good against the pass.

400
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: This could turn into a game where the Dolphins decide

401
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,239
Speaker 1: they just want to get Rahiem Moster Devon a Chan

402
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: all their running backs sort of involved and maybe not

403
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: put too much on Tua. Makes me very nervous. I

404
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: think the upside is if you drafted Tua, you probably

405
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: also drafted another quarterback along the way. But I have

406
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:36,239
Speaker 1: concerns about me too. Team all right, Laquan's go back

407
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: around one more again. Who else are you worried about?

408
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm worried about Joe Mixon because of the matchup,

409
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 3: Like he's been untrustworthy at times during the season, but

410
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 3: he has been red hot. But this Vikings defense, they're

411
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 3: alone on the fifth He is rushing yards per game.

412
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 3: But I think you can trust Joe Mixon this week, man,

413
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,959
Speaker 3: because a lot of people are thinking to swap him

414
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 3: in and out of the starting lineups. But the last

415
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 3: four games he's been averaging twenty fantasy points per game,

416
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 3: one touchdown in six of his last seven games. I

417
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 3: feel like this is normal behavior. The ups and downs

418
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 3: are Joe Mixon, so a lot of people could be

419
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 3: worried about him. But the last two seasons, he's averaged

420
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 3: fifteen Fantasy points per game in the last four games

421
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 3: of the season, So mixing does bring PPR upside, which

422
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase kind of banged up as well, but he's

423
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 3: actually averaging more targets per game with Jake Browning versus

424
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow at quarterback. So hopefully mixing can bring it

425
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 3: home and I can lie on because I'm one of

426
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 3: those guys that are worried.

427
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: This is when we get the classic Joe Mixon forty

428
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: point game, hopefully sort out of nowhere. We need it

429
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 1: so many people need it out of nowhere because we

430
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 1: haven't had one of those yets. So maybe it happens

431
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: this week against Minnesota Florida. Who else do you have

432
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:43,439
Speaker 1: concerns about?

433
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 2: L Q said he's worried about Sam how I'm worried

434
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 2: about his top wide receiver or what should be his

435
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 2: top wide receiver in Terry McLaurin. The last time we

436
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 2: saw Terry McLaurin, he gave you the same amount of

437
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 2: fantasy points. As everyone's sitting in this room right now,

438
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 2: he's three targets, no catches. And then after the game

439
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 2: he was like, yeah, I got my steps in today

440
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 2: and we joke about the cardio king of the week.

441
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 2: He really was living that life. But I've been going

442
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: back and forth all week. The optimism in me is

443
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 2: going to win out because my hope is that it's

444
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,959
Speaker 2: a squeaky wheel game. Eric Banemy and co. Have had

445
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 2: two weeks now to draw up plays on how to

446
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 2: get their best playmaker the ball in what I think

447
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 2: will be a game with a lot of points scored

448
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 2: and they will be chasing points. So it's sad that

449
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 2: even with the quarterback in the top five and passing yards,

450
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 2: like Marcus was saying, he's been a boomer bus wide

451
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 2: receiver three at best. But come on, Terry, we need

452
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 2: you now more than ever.

453
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't score any fantasy points last week,

454
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: but in my defense, I have bad hands and I

455
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: make up for it with a lack of separation. So

456
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: that's my story and I'm sticking to it for me.

457
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: The other guy I have questions about this week, and

458
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: it's another quarterback. It's Trevor Lawrence going against the Baltimore

459
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: Ravens and Lawrence dealing still with that ankle injury. It

460
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: was good to see him back out on the field,

461
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: but he really hasn't been all that great. The ceiling

462
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: has been rather low for him over the last few weeks.

463
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: It's been a Watston. He scored twenty fantasy points in

464
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: a game, and he's got this tough defense to deal

465
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 1: with this week. I just really am worried. Not that

466
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: he's got to come throw a complete dud out there, right,

467
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 1: He's not going to give you single digits, I don't believe.

468
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: But my fear is that he gives you fourteen fifteen

469
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: and leaves you really needing to fill in the gap

470
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: somewhere else on your fantasy rosters. So I know, for

471
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, they got to keep winning. They got to

472
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: try and lock up the AFC South and make sure

473
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: they get a good playoff spot. So that's why Trevor

474
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: Lawrence is out there. But I just am not really

475
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 1: excited about the matchup at all this week. I mean, okay,

476
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,640
Speaker 1: did we overrate Trevor Lawrence this year?

477
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 3: I mean he needs Christian Kirk. I mean, ever since

478
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 3: the injury I feel like everything just went downhill for

479
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 3: him because Trevor Lawrence likes to favor the slot position

480
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 3: if it's Evan Ingram or for Christian Kirk. Without that

481
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 3: guy with the separation that he's able to get, I

482
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 3: think Trevor Lawrence.

483
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: Is going to be hurt. Yeah, well, Evan Linger. Evan

484
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: Ingram has certainly stepped up, went from scoring no touchdowns

485
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: to scoring all of the time touchdowns. He's a costco player.

486
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: He buys in bulk. All right, it's time now for

487
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: Club dub. He's the guys we guarantee will score you

488
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,679
Speaker 1: at least twenty five fantasy points this week.

489
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 3: Man, I feel like Arthur Smith is trying to get

490
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 3: on the fantasy community's good side because we're finally getting

491
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 3: b John Robinson unlocked.

492
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 2: Man.

493
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 3: I mean, the last four games he's been a top

494
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 3: five running back. So with this matchup, it's really juicy

495
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 3: man against this Panthers defense. They're allowing the most rushing

496
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 3: touchdowns to running backs this season, so that's always good

497
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,640
Speaker 3: to get these layup little matchups in the first round.

498
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 3: So I really love him this week, and we're finally

499
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 3: seeing him being utilized more in the red zone and

500
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 3: in the goal line. Since Week ten, he's been leading

501
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,880
Speaker 3: in those categories, so he topped twenty five points one

502
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 3: time this season. I'm gonna say this is going to

503
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 3: be his best game this season.

504
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I think we finally wore Arthur Smith down,

505
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 1: b John Robinson getting involved, Drake London having big plays.

506
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: Now we just unlock Kyle Pitts. That would be great, Florida.

507
00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: Who's piling it up for you?

508
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 2: This man right here, we could ask him himself, Cooper,

509
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 2: are you gonna get twenty five this week? Yeah? Look, look,

510
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 2: Cooper Cup looks like Cooper Cup again, and that's what

511
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,959
Speaker 2: we want this time of year. We know when he

512
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 2: is healthy, he is arguably the best wide receiver in

513
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 2: fantasy football. He looked like himself last week catching touchdowns

514
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 2: now and two straight he's winning downfield again. Oh and

515
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 2: the Commanders, they have allowed unlimited amount of points to

516
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 2: wide receivers this year. They are the best matchup for wideouts.

517
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,679
Speaker 2: I think him Pooka Stafford, they are all going to

518
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 2: eat this week. All three of them might approach twenty five.

519
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: Fantas dude, I love the Marcus Robinson as a sleeper

520
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: this week. I think the Rams offense gonna go off

521
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: against a bad Commanders defense. As for me, my guys,

522
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley this week going against the New Orleans Saints.

523
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: The Saints have been very soft against the run the

524
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: last few weeks, but on top of it, Saquon is

525
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: just thriving. I know the story has been Tommy DeVito

526
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 1: and what he's doing a quarterback, but let's not overlook

527
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: the contributions of Saquon Barkley. He is getting volume. He

528
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 1: has been incredibly efficient with his touches. They are using

529
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: him as a pass catcher. He is getting all the

530
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 1: work that we hoped he would and is actually doing

531
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 1: fairly well with it. The only downside is at the

532
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: Giants still not a high scoring offense, so that sort

533
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: of puts a cap on his fantasy production overall. But

534
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 1: I think this week against a struggling Saints defense, Saquon

535
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: looks like the Saquon that you probably drafted, say in

536
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: the second round or somewhere like that. So it should

537
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,400
Speaker 1: be interesting. By the way, In case you haven't heard,
