3
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: his San Francisco forty Niners had today. Yeah, this is weird.

4
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 1: It's sort of like it's sort of like sitting in

5
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: the passenger seat of your own car. Right, It's like

6
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: this is it looks weird over Yeah, Typically Marcus Marcus

7
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: host things, but Graham is away for the holidays, so

8
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 1: Marcus has jumped into his seat and I'm gonna be

9
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: basically in Marcus Friday. Uh, it's uh, it's I don't

10
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 1: know why you're playing fantasy Championships in week seventeen. Stop that.

11
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 1: But for those of you that decide to put yourself

12
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: through that, hell, we're here to help. Uh and um,

13
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna go through all the games just like we

14
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: do every single Friday, although it's gonna be a little

15
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: more difficult because a lot of these games we don't

16
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: behind the glass napile. What's up, brother? You're back, man? Yeah,

17
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 1: I'm back. You know. I'm excited. The Packers are twelve

18
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: and three, and uh makes the magic happen the playoff?

19
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about your your Wisconsin

20
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: Badgers are gonna be in Pasadena in January one. Oh yeah,

21
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna upset or I mean, I don't

22
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: know whose favor, but I think they're gonna beat Oregon. See,

23
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: I got I have to see as a as a

24
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: usc alum and a proud supporter of the Pack eleven.

25
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 1: There's one there's one school in the conference that I

26
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: will not cheer for during any circumstances, but the Pack eleven.

27
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: That means that I have to side with the Ducks

28
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: this week. And I have nothing against Wisconsin. It's just

29
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: a it's just a conference thing. I think Wisconsin, you know,

30
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: has a stifling defense. So we'll see what happens. All right,

31
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 1: all right, cool? I follow none of them. Um, when

32
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: you're in a relationship, there's things that you have to

33
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: give up. There's certain things you won't give up. Well, obviously,

34
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: the NFL is not something I'm giving up. I'm not

35
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: giving up the Yankees watching college sports and in part

36
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: of the NBA, well, fabs, I will tell you that

37
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: you will learn the name Jonathan Taylor very soon was

38
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: Wisconsin running back dude as a beast. Uh, he will

39
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: be playing on Sundays very soon. You will you will

40
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: learn Jonathan Taylor's name. One name that we don't need

41
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 1: to know uh this season, because well he hasn't played

42
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: outside of that one game for the New England Patriots.

43
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown. Before we get into the matchups, the Saints

44
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:24,839
Speaker 1: bringing Antonio Brown in for a visit, I mean, look,

45
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: I guess you're doing your due diligence right, like you

46
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: have to do your due diligence. He is a free agent.

47
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: The Saints have needed some help for Michael Thomas pretty

48
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,359
Speaker 1: much all year long. And I know that Thomas, he's

49
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: a little bit banged up. I'm not worried about him

50
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 1: long term. But uh yeah, I think this is doing

51
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: their due diligence because I just have a feeling that

52
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: if if somehow they strike a deal with Antonio Brown

53
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: and they signed him, he will be put on the

54
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: Commissioner's example list faster than you can, you know, say anything,

55
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 1: right and I and this is from Pro Football Talk.

56
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: If they do that and he is put on that list,

57
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: the Saints wouldn't have to pay him, but they basically

58
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: they would have potentially DIBs on Antonio next season. Team

59
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: next season, right, Yeah, I mean, like I said, this

60
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: is I think this is them just sort of checking

61
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: all the boxes and doing their were homework. I know

62
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: there are reports that they were talking to his agents

63
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 1: for a while. They're kind of keeping tabs on him,

64
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: probably all throughout the Raiders and Patriots fiasco's. But I

65
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: would be really surprised if we see Antonio Brown in

66
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: a Saints uniform this year. Well, um, yeah, that's gonna

67
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 1: be that's gonna be interesting when just when we thought

68
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown was going to be out of our lives. Oh,

69
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: come on, maybe he'll be back next year somewhere back

70
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: in All right, let's get into the week seventeen matchup,

71
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: shall you? And we'll start off Brown's Bengals. Uh. Pretty

72
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: clean game this one, Uh from a from a injury perspective.

73
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: What you inter it? That makes sound like it's going

74
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: to be an exciting game. No, not really, I'm trying

75
00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: to make it exciting because exactly uh, one team that

76
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: we all knew was gonna stink, and another team there

77
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: we all thought was gonna be good. Nice stunt too. Uh.

78
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: So the thing is that there are actually some pretty

79
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: good matchups here. Are you possibly starting Baker Mayfield against Cincinnati.

80
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: Not really, you know, I should say that because it's

81
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: weeks seventeen, right, so there there's a good chance that

82
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: if you were playing a week seventeen championship, your quarterback

83
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: might be sitting or might just be playing, you know,

84
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: a half or something like that, is not gonna play

85
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: a whole lot. So there is an opportunity, there is

86
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: a pathway to starting Baker Mayfield. But still, Nah, it's

87
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 1: just he's been so inconsistent, He's given you so little

88
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: for most of the year that I just don't know

89
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: that I trust him right now. I can't. I just can't. Yeah. Um,

90
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: And again, it's championship week for a lot of you,

91
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: and I'm just not trusting Baker Mayfield. Uh. In my

92
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: championship Nick Chub, he should bounce back. Cincinnati's defense is

93
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: not great against the run. Kareem Hunt very flexable. Let's

94
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: put it that, oh oh, b J actually had a

95
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: decent game last week. He did had a decent game. Now,

96
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: Cincinnati has been tough against perimeter receivers. We know that,

97
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: h Can you trust Oto Beckham Jr. He's a flex

98
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: at best for me. I think I think that's sort

99
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: of where we are right now with him this year.

100
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: I'm curious more to see what happens going forward, Like

101
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 1: I will keep an eye on this game to see

102
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: if maybe there's a hope for things next season, if

103
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: they can figure things out. But the days of him

104
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: being your wide receiver one, which I know is probably

105
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: what he drafted him as, I think that went out

106
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 1: the window probably in what October something like that, So

107
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 1: he's a flexi most Yeah. And then Jarvis Landry is

108
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: a play for me. And there has been talk that

109
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: Jarvis Larrdery could potentially need offseason hip surgery, but he

110
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: does expect to get out there in week seventeen, so

111
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: I think he's he's a receiver right now. I know. Yep,

112
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 1: we all thought. We all thought Cleveland would have a

113
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: top fifteen Jarvis Landry Landry. Um. For those of you

114
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: who need a kicker, Austin Cybert is a very good play.

115
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 1: A Cyberg Saber Brown's defensive special teams probably get a

116
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 1: fade on them. Andy Dalton went b Nana's last bananas.

117
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 1: Are we super flexing or two que being him this week?

118
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: I can see that I get my case for that. Yeah, sure, Um,

119
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: you know, I really feel like it's weird. It's just

120
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: from a pure football perspective. I felt like Zach Taylor

121
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 1: at some point went to who do we have Ryan Finley,

122
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 1: who was there? Yeah, went to him because at some

123
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: point they're gonna move on from Andy Dalton. They wanted

124
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: to see what they have. Finley went out played really bad,

125
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: and I think at some point Zach Taylor looked at me,

126
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: He's like, you know what, I don't want to go

127
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 1: Owen sixteen in my first year as a head coach.

128
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: So Dalton came back. I mean, Dalton, look, we we

129
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: know who Andy Dalton is. He's fine, and I think

130
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: if you're talking about a two QB league or a

131
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: super flex league, he can give you just enough point

132
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: that he's not going to wreck your week. Ye Joe

133
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: Mixon he failed this last week, but he had that

134
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: that stomach bug. Yeah, I can't imagine playing football with

135
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: his stomach bug is out of on. So we give

136
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: him a pass because he got a lot of people

137
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: do a championship. So uh, he's gonna be a guy

138
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,799
Speaker 1: who will be in your lineup. Tyler Boyd is also

139
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: a wide receiver to for me this week. So based

140
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: on just targets alone and the fact that neither one

141
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: of these teams is gonna be playing for anything, so

142
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: who knows, maybe it'll be a fantasy bananza. Will see

143
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: Dolphins at Patriots. Now, the playoff implications here are that

144
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: the Patriots can clinch the a f c's number two

145
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: seed with a win or a tie, uh and a

146
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: Chief's loss or a tie. So the Patriots basically need

147
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: this game. And we've seen footage of Bill Belichick saying, Hey, Miami,

148
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: this is a playoff game, So they're gonna be moving uh,

149
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: moving forward as if this is a must win, which

150
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: it is. And uh the injuries. Miles Gaston's in place

151
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: on injured reserved Julian Edeman has been on the injury

152
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 1: report basically for the entirety of the second half of

153
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: the season, but you would expect him to play now.

154
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: Starting off with the Dolphins, Ryan Fitzpatrick has been one

155
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: of the hottest quarterbacks in fantasy football. In fact, if

156
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: you started Ryan Fitzpatrick for the duration of the fantasy playoffs,

157
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: is a good chance that you made your Week sixteen

158
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: championships and or one it um are you started Grand

159
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick this week. It's not a revenge game. Uh right,

160
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: he didn't play for the Patriots and this is a

161
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: bad matchup. Yeah, I'm probably fading him this week. You

162
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: know I can't make that play. Um, And you're right,

163
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: he looked great down on the stretch and he played

164
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: some really good football. This is not the week. Although

165
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,119
Speaker 1: I will say this, UM, and you mentioned here Miles

166
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: Gaskon is on injured reserve. Uh. Look, unless unless Patrick

167
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: Laird can somehow out rush Ryan Fitzpatrick one yards this week,

168
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: he will finish as the Dolphins leading rush. Is insane.

169
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: And that and that I believe, I believe that would

170
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: be the first time in NFL history that are running

171
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: back led his team in rushing. Quarterback, I'm sorry, a quarterback,

172
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: not a running back. He only has like two yards,

173
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: Like he may actually do this with a fewer than

174
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty yards, which is sad. And remember

175
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: you know we were also like intrigued by Caitlin Belage

176
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: in the preseason. Yeah, boy was that wrong. Defonte Parker's

177
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: got a bad matchup. He's got to find Gilmore. But

178
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: Parker has had bad matchups in this hot streak. I mean,

179
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: he's played the Bills twice and beating him twice. I

180
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: can't bench Defonte Parker. Yeah no, I mean I'm at

181
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: least putting him in as a flex because he has

182
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: just been that good. I'm looking back at his his

183
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: targets right and can go back to a week ten.

184
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: These are this have been his target numbers, ten, ten, eleven.

185
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: He had one with two against the Jet which is

186
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: like an outlier, seven and then fifteen last week against

187
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: the Mangles. Just that the targets alone making worth putting

188
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: in your lineup. Mike Asiki is coming off a career game,

189
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: a couple of touchdowns over twenty fantasy points. Can you

190
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: trust him against New England? No? No, there, I mean

191
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: I know Titan's hard, but no, yeah uh. Tom Brady

192
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: actually has He's a startable lasset this week. I think

193
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: I think he could be a top ten quarterback because

194
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: Miami's defense is hot trash and again they need this game.

195
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: So so I would play Brady this week, and especial

196
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: because you've got so many quarterbacks, like you know, we'll

197
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: get into it. But like Kirk Cousins Yard Goff, I

198
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: don't know if these guys are gonna play, So Brady

199
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: is is startable this week? I'd still wrote with James White.

200
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: I don't know about Sony Michelan Rex Burkhead because that

201
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: one's just so hard to predict weekend in week out.

202
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: I mean you could prep probably Flexy the one of

203
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 1: them in a deeper league, but I mean it's it's

204
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: legitimately I'll roll the dice to stay unless it's James White.

205
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: He's the only one in that back field that I

206
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 1: have any sort of confidence in. Nick Folk is a

207
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: play Patriots defense, special teams obviously play, although they gave

208
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: you a stinker last week. All Right, Bears ad Vikings

209
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 1: NFC North. Now the Vikings have clinched the six seed.

210
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: They can't they can't get kicked out. They can't improve.

211
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: They're locked in, which means I don't know how many

212
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: of their starters are gonna play this week. And this

213
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 1: is what makes Week seventeen championships so difficult. So we'll

214
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,319
Speaker 1: start off with the injuries. Dalvin Cook and Alexander Madison

215
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: have been back to limited practice. But why would you

216
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: play them? I can't imagine. I can't imagine Dalvin Cook

217
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 1: was before the playoffs. There's no there's no reason there's

218
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 1: no reason. So with that being said, maybe Madison comes back.

219
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: We'll see. If Madison comes back, then he's in play.

220
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 1: If Madison is out. And I'll tell you something, Mike Boone,

221
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: Mike Boone, I can't swear on this podcast, Nabia, but

222
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: Mike Boone so bad last week. The whole industry was

223
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: in on him, like, and I'm not gonna throw any

224
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 1: names under the bus because like I was one of

225
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: the people who said he's gonna get a full workload.

226
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: I'd flex h this week, and he sucked. It was

227
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: a merab duel was playing in the second half of

228
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 1: that game. You know, yeah, it would be religion this

229
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: history for me to say, you know, oh yeah, we

230
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: knew this. But as I was watching that game, you know,

231
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: you know sometimes when you're watching the game, you just

232
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: haven't realization. And watching that game on Monday night, the

233
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: realization for me was, you know, maybe there's a reason

234
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 1: that he was the third string guy. I tweeted that,

235
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: maybe there's a reason tweeting and you know, Alexander Madison, right, like,

236
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: maybe we should have seen this coming. We all got

237
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: caught up into the volume is king right, and it

238
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 1: just like at some point because I was out, I

239
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 1: had to go pick up some Christmas president and I

240
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: get home and I turn on the game, and I'm like,

241
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: why is miradul in here? What he do? It's happening right?

242
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 1: It was bad? Um. So I don't know that you

243
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 1: can trust either one of those two guys in this game,

244
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: even though the Bears defense not great against the run

245
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: this season. So do with what? Do with that what

246
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 1: you will? I probably avoid the situation Mitchet Drobiski. I

247
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: mean again, if the Vikings are resting guys, that defense

248
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 1: you know can be had by quarterbacks. But do you

249
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: really want to start Mitchet Drobiski in a week's seventeen Championship?

250
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: I would start Allen Robinson. He is a must play

251
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: this week against the defense that just got torched by

252
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,199
Speaker 1: Davante Adams a week ago. David Montgomery has just faltered

253
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: down the stretch and I can't trust him in this game.

254
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: Trek Cohen is maybe a flex at best. Montgomery's probably

255
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: a flex at best this week as well. Now, going

256
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: back to the Vikings, I don't know if Kirk Cousins

257
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 1: is playing. I would guess he probably wouldn't. And if

258
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:48,680
Speaker 1: he does, It's not going to be for an entire

259
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: four quarters. Same thing with Stefon Diggs, same thing with

260
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,599
Speaker 1: Kyle Rudolph. This is why you don't play weeks seventeen championships,

261
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 1: especially if you're invested in some of these guys. Question though, Yeah,

262
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: could you see Adam feel and maybe not playing four

263
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: quarters but playing quite a bit just because he has

264
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: not really shown much since he's come back from that injury, right,

265
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 1: And if you're the Vikings, like, yes, you don't necessarily

266
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: want to risk him to injury, but you also want

267
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: him to get some actual live reps in So I

268
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: could see maybe Adam Feeling playing in the third quarter

269
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: a little bit just to kind of get him Goes

270
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: reps and try to get him in a rhythm for

271
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Quite possible, um, but again risky proposition at

272
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: best in a game that has no meaning whatsoever in

273
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: terms of the playoffs. Chargers at Chiefs. This game does

274
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: have some meaning. The Chiefs can clinch the a f

275
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: C Number two seed with a win and the Patriots loss. Uh.

276
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 1: Maybe unlikely against Miami, but um, the Chiefs still have

277
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: something to play for now in terms of the injuries

278
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: in this game, Philip Rivers banged up. We gonna see Tyrod.

279
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: We what you know, you know what's gonna happen. You

280
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen. Dude, He's gonna end up being

281
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: like a top ten quarterback this week. You watch, Rivers

282
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,199
Speaker 1: is gonna sit and they're gonna go to Tyrod, who will,

283
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: by the way, has had some success as a fantasy

284
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: court of back uh in this league. Now. Rivers did

285
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: get in a full practice on Thursday, so it looks

286
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,079
Speaker 1: like he's trending in the right direction. Now. No matter

287
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: who is under center for the Chargers, I'm not playing them.

288
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,199
Speaker 1: The Chief's defense is playing great right now. They've been phenomenal. Um.

289
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: If Rivers does play, this could be the last time

290
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: we see him in the Charges uniform. Who knows what's

291
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: going to happen there. Um. In terms of the other Chargers,

292
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: you're starting Gordon, You're starting Eckler, Eckler. This could be

293
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: Eckler's last game where he is not the featured back

294
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: for the Chargers because next year, if Melvin Gordon is

295
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: no longer with the Bolts, Austin Neckler he could be

296
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: a first round pick. Yeah, could be. I'm curious how

297
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: they how they operate this back heel right, do they

298
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: do they sort of showcase Eckler and say, hey, this

299
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: is what your future is guy. Uh, you know, because

300
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon is not coming back. I would be shocked

301
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: as anything of Melvin Gordon tal back to the Charger.

302
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 1: Or do they just say, hey, we're gonna go, We're

303
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: gonna have one last ride with Melvin. So we're just

304
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: gonna run you into the ground and give you like

305
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: thirty five carries. We'll see. I mean that that could

306
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: be at um. Both of these guys obviously startable in

307
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: week seven seen Keenan Allen startable. Mike Williams to me

308
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: is a fade. Uh perimeter receivers. I've scored the second

309
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: fewest Fantasy points against Kansas City. They are really tough

310
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: on those guys. So Williams is a fade, especially after

311
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: he faltered last week. You're starting Hunter Henry despite the

312
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: fact that he hasn't been great because the tight end

313
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: position is well just that week, Uh, Kansas City side

314
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: of think Damian Williams, I could flex him this week.

315
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: I mean, Chargers are not great against the run. I

316
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: could flex him if I needed it. Yeah, I think

317
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 1: I just have tapped out on the Chiefs backfield. I

318
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: get it, but I get it. I mean, but if

319
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: McCoy is is an active again and they're going with Williams,

320
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: I could play him as a flex Sammy Watkins. Uh yeah, exactly.

321
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: Harrison Butler is a great play. Chiefs defense is a

322
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: great play. I'm not mentioning uh Mahomes nor Kelsey nor

323
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: Tyreek because if you don't know to start those guys within,

324
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: you should take how did you get exactly jets at

325
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: Bill's Uh. This game also has no fantasy excuse me,

326
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: playoff implications. The Bills have already clinched the five seed.

327
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: They can't improve, which means I don't know if Josh

328
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: Allen's playing. I don't know if Devin Singletary is playing.

329
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if John Brown is playing Marcus. I mean, yeah,

330
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: we don't know for sure. Look, I'm just I'm just guessing,

331
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: uh that McDermott will will play his guys at least

332
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: for a little bit. Um. Singletary is the one guy

333
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: that would scare me the most, just because when you

334
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: don't know if he's gonna play the whole time. In

335
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: second when he does play the whole time, he has

336
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: no touchdown upside, Right, So you're gonna tell me that

337
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: in four quarters he has very little touchdown upside. And

338
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna tell me he's gonna play less than four

339
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: quarters Like I need him to break off like a

340
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: couple of you know, fifty yard runs to have any

341
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: kind of value for me. Just a quick note Chad Graff,

342
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: who covers the Vikings for the Athletic uh saying that

343
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: the Vikings are going to rest their starters. Well, there

344
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: we go, there you go. How fun with is it?

345
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: Sean Mannon is see the backup in Minnesota and think

346
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: it's Sean man Isn't that right? The former Rams backup quarterback.

347
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: So you're looking at Sean Manion, the BC Johnson with

348
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: that Oregon State great, Sean Manyon. Have fun with that.

349
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 1: You're gonna have Mike putting a deal in the backfield

350
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: or I Smith? Maybe I Smith is going to be

351
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: a stud this week. I don't know, right, but Sean

352
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 1: Mannon right, I'm looking. Yeah, I think it's Sean looking.

353
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 1: Because the only only two people for the Vikings have

354
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: thrown a past this year, Kirk Cousins and Stefon Diggs.

355
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 1: They have not even had their backup quarterback coming to

356
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: throw a past. Did you see what Levian Bell just

357
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: tweeted out? No? Uh, he tweeted out, do I want

358
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 1: to know? He tweeted out a sign that was put

359
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 1: on his locker that says, this is an h G

360
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: H blood test. You have been randomly selected by the

361
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 1: NFL Drug Testing Program medical advisers are complete a doping

362
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 1: test today. Please report to the drug testing area. But

363
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 1: should have? Should guys be posting that stuff on social media?

364
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,680
Speaker 1: My question is have they seen him play? Because nothing

365
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 1: about what he has done this year suggests that he

366
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 1: is on I mean, look, he's been perfectly adequate, but

367
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,120
Speaker 1: nothing about his performance suggests that maybe he is doping. Well,

368
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: it's gonna be nice to see him play for another

369
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: team next year. Um, alright, So back to the Jets

370
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 1: and the Bills. Uh, Sam Donald, I can't play him,

371
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: Levian Bell. I don't know what the hell is going

372
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: on with him. I mean, I guess you're gonna be

373
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: playing him. I don't know what this this tweet is

374
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna affect his his his Jets. I don't

375
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 1: know whatever Robbie Anderson. Tough matchup again, but I mean

376
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: if trenous Whites not playing, then maybe you're gonna go

377
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: with the Anderson. Jamison Crowter is a risk reward flex

378
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 1: starter for me this week as well. So again we

379
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: keep saying it. This is what happens when you play

380
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,919
Speaker 1: a New Week's seventeen. There's a lot of uncertainty. By

381
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: the way, speaking of the Jets, I don't know if

382
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 1: you saw this tweet, um Adam Gates's morning press conference

383
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: was shut down after one minute because the fire alarm

384
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,719
Speaker 1: went off. That just seems that feels like a metaphor

385
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 1: for the entire season. The Jets franchise. OHO, alright, Packers

386
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: and lines the bell on your team there. Now there's

387
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: a lot of scenarios here, so I said, just so

388
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: bear with me. The Packers can't clinch and NFC first

389
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: round by with a winning Saints laws or a tie

390
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: and a forty Niners loss, or a tie and a

391
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:07,360
Speaker 1: Saints tie. The Packers can clinch home field advantage throughout

392
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: the NFC playoffs with a win and a forty Niners

393
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: loss or tie, or a tie and a forty Niners

394
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: loss and a Saints lost or tie. Yeah, I didn't

395
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: really follow. I'm confused to regardless, this is a big

396
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: game for your Packers, okay, which means you can have

397
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: faith in all of their players. You're obviously starting Aaron Jones,

398
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 1: You're obviously starting Davante Adams, Marcus. Are you starting Aaron Rodgers? Uh,

399
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: it is a good matchup. Here's the thing. I think

400
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: he would just be adequate, sort of like he has been,

401
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: you know, for parts of the season. He'll be just fine. Like,

402
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: I don't know that this is one of those games

403
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 1: where in the past you have these weeks seventeen games,

404
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: whether it's against the Lions or it's against the Bears

405
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: or whatever, and the Packers need a win to do something,

406
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: and usually that's when Aaron Rodgers goes out and goes

407
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: for like three fifty and like three touchdowns. This year,

408
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 1: they haven't needed him to do that. He hasn't really

409
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: done that. They've leaned on Aaron Jones. And so I

410
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 1: can see this be in a situation where even though

411
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,959
Speaker 1: the matchup is good, Aaron Rodgers get to like, you know,

412
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: maybe two touchdowns. I mean, it'll just be like that's

413
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: actually a good game, maybe, and like one touchdown because

414
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones gets most of the work. So I super

415
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 1: flex sure two QB. Sure. I don't know that. Like

416
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 1: you know, if I'm saying a regular traditional lineup, then

417
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: that I that I would do it. Yeah, um, Packers.

418
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: I have Rogers in my top ten this week, but

419
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 1: it's because it's one of those weeks where you know,

420
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: so many of the guys are sitting exactly. Packer's defense

421
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: is to play without question this week, Mason Crosby, if

422
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: you need to kick her now. On the Lions side

423
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: of things, carry on. Johnson knew much last week. He

424
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,679
Speaker 1: barely played. Yeah, so I I just I can't play him.

425
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: I think he played like fifteen snaps. If I can't

426
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 1: John No, I'm I'm staying away. Like what happens next year?

427
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:57,160
Speaker 1: They drinking the first What happens next year? With Carrie

428
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: on Johnson in that back though? Does he go back

429
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: to being a workhorse? I would think so, But I

430
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: would think because the first couple of years he has

431
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: had injury issues, do they bring somebody else in to

432
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,239
Speaker 1: kind of take some of that workload office. I mean,

433
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook was an injury prone dude for the first

434
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 1: two years. Uh in the NFL, and I wonder if

435
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 1: we're gonna see more like Alexander Madison or do I

436
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: say Mike Mike is dead to us, dad to us?

437
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 1: Kenny Galladay, who I did not play last weekend. It

438
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 1: cost me a championship because I didn't like the match up,

439
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: of course, but I mean, at this point, I feel like,

440
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: even with like a thirteen quarterback on your center, that

441
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay has got to be treated as unless you've

442
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: got a really freaking good alternative, you gotta get him

443
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:38,719
Speaker 1: in your line. I think about Kenny Golladay in the

444
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: last few weeks of the season is that he's not

445
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,439
Speaker 1: putting up a ton of yards, but he seems to

446
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: find the end zones enough that it makes it worthwhile.

447
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm looking. So he had the one game

448
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: in Week thirteen against the Bears, we had a hundred

449
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 1: fifty eight yards, right, But go back to week ten,

450
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: it's fifty seven, thirty four, sixty one. Yeah, there's a

451
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: fifty eight the sixties. It's not like a huge yards numbers,

452
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: but you know in three of those games he funds

453
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: the end zone, so it helps. Yeah. Yeah, those touchdowns

454
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 1: certainly help. No question. Uh, so got it? Uh, there's

455
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: no other Lions on plan. I mean, I'm looking to

456
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: play against the Lions this week, not players, Uh, Saints

457
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: or Panthers again a game that has playoff implications. The

458
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: Saints can clinch an NFC first run by with a

459
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: win and a Packers lost tie or a win and

460
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: a forty Niners lost their tie, or a win and

461
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: a Packers loss, or a tie and a forty Niners loss,

462
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:32,439
Speaker 1: or a forty Niners loss and a Packers win or tie.

463
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 1: You can go back and you know, play that again

464
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 1: if you need to actually know what the scenario is,

465
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: because it's I feel like if you're a sort of confusing. Uh.

466
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: The injuries in this game. Dj Moore who and DJ

467
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 1: Moore was great all year and it sucks that he

468
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: had he had that concussion last week, but um, he's

469
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: He's a guy who I don't know that they would

470
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 1: throw out there. I mean, are you actually are you

471
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: really going to play him? We will gree because we'll

472
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: gree gonna start a quarterback again with the Panthers. Um,

473
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: because they obviously know that that Kyle Allen is not

474
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 1: the answers, and I think they want to find out

475
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,919
Speaker 1: if maybe possibly Will Greer can be the answer. But

476
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,239
Speaker 1: my response is, well, we're well Greer couldn't beat out

477
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen all these weeks, so what does that say? Um?

478
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: And then uh the Panthers O C. Scott Turner, UH

479
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: nervous kid UH named Chris Hogan and Brandon Zistra as

480
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 1: the possible replacements for d J. Moore. I'll tell you something.

481
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: The Saints defense might score thirty like the Colts did

482
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: last week. Yeah, I'm definitely starting the same. This is

483
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 1: a big game for the same, Absolutely starting the SAT.

484
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, who overcame that that trend of sucking during

485
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: the Fantasy playoffs in outdoor road games last week, has

486
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 1: been in Fuego. I mean his last three games, he's

487
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: been great. Alvid Kamara finally got back into the end

488
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: zone and just playing the worst defense in the league.

489
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,400
Speaker 1: The Panthers have given up the most touchdowns of running

490
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: back since the eighty six Bucks. This is six Bucks

491
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,040
Speaker 1: their uniforms. They still the cream sickles, then run it.

492
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: Steve Young was the court in the UH and the

493
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: Weird Pirate. Yes, I love that that. I don't care.

494
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: That's one of my favorite, your inspiration for Captain Jack

495
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 1: Sparrow exactly. So you were saying about Camara, Um, I

496
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: think it's a big spot for him, Absolutely big spot

497
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 1: for him. I mean it was nice last week for

498
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 1: him to score the two touchdowns. It definitely helped for

499
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 1: a lot of folks playing in week sixteen. And if

500
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 1: you are playing this week, Um, it's gonna happen. You know.

501
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,640
Speaker 1: Weird thing And I just thought about this as we're talking, um,

502
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,159
Speaker 1: because you have so many scenarios, right, like the Saints

503
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:30,880
Speaker 1: you mentioned all these like you know, so this team

504
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 1: has to win or lose or tie or lose or

505
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: tie here, right, And for the Saints, they're playing the

506
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: same time as the Packers in the morning and and

507
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 1: vice versa at some point because we know they're gonna

508
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 1: at least start their starters. If one of these teams

509
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 1: gets out to a big lead, right, if you're the

510
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 1: Packers and you see the Saints get out to a

511
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 1: big lead early, which is certainly very possible. Uh, and

512
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 1: it looks like, okay, you're not gonna get what you

513
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,120
Speaker 1: want out of them, then you always run the risk

514
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,120
Speaker 1: of you know, hey, look we can't get anything better,

515
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: like Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Jones. You just have a seat.

516
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: You know everything, every nothing's going our way. You know,

517
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 1: we're not gonna get We're not gonna get help from

518
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,679
Speaker 1: the Panthers or vice versa. If you're the Saints and

519
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: you see the backers are running out to a lead

520
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 1: against the Lions, at some point, just say, hey, a

521
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: with Camara, let's just you know, let's just shut it

522
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: down until next week and you know, until two weeks

523
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: form now whatever, and we'll figure out what happens then wee.

524
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 1: So other players, Litavius Murray is flexible this week. Why

525
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: because Caroline is trashed against the run, and if they're

526
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: a huge Murray could end up getting some burn laden game.

527
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: You see some goal line opportunities. So I feel like

528
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 1: he has the analine values reflected. Jared Cook has been

529
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: tremendous the Saints defense. We mentioned. Are you starting anyone

530
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 1: on the Panthers roster not named Christian mccaffreine, No, especially

531
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 1: out with with Will Grew or quarterback? Now yeah, they

532
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 1: I mean at this point they almost have to go

533
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: back to cam or draft somebody or do something because

534
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 1: it ain't Kyle Allen. They hante to answer, and Will

535
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: gree looks like Crape. I mean, you know, he's only

536
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: played one game but heat, but he looked terrible in

537
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:02,439
Speaker 1: the preseason exactly. Uh, all right, this is another NFC

538
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: South battle, Atlanta Tampa Bay. This guy is gonna be

539
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: weirdly fun. I think, yes, I think everything. I think

540
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 1: most of the starters will play for at least two

541
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 1: or three quarters. Um. The Falcons have been better for

542
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: the last few weeks. The Bucks have been like. If

543
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,360
Speaker 1: I'm not a Bucks fan, the Bucks are fun to watch.

544
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 1: If I'm a Bucks fan, then I'm like chugging you know,

545
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 1: maylox or whatever I'm watching play. Yeah, I I I

546
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: can't even get it out. So we're frustrating. Jamie's cost

547
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: me two championships. He goes a lot of people. He

548
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 1: cost me too. He caught Utah give me too. He

549
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: cost me to this this dude, and now he got

550
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: me there too. So I mean, I can't I can't

551
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 1: kill him. But he if he has, if he has

552
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: fifteen to sixteen, I win in the two leagues where

553
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 1: I started. Er anyways, but actually by half that you

554
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 1: were kind of done with James. Yeah, I mean yeah,

555
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: um he uh he is Jamis and he's gonna end

556
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: up as the top ten quarterback. Um, this is even now.

557
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: You know we always make fun about Blake Bortles being

558
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: the top ten quarterback. I mean this, I mean, Jee's

559
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: with all these picks and all these turnovers. Anyways. Uh,

560
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,199
Speaker 1: so that brings me to Jamis. Atlanta's defense has been

561
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 1: impossible to predict over the last six weeks. Right, they're

562
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 1: either really terrible or they're holding Drew Brees to ten points?

563
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,640
Speaker 1: Do you start Jamis Winston? Weirdly, I think I say yes.

564
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,479
Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like I don't know. This

565
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: has all the makings of the Jamis, you know, three

566
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 1: yards and three touchdowns. I mean there will be a

567
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 1: pick in there because it's it's Jamis. But yeah, I

568
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: think I tried Jamis this week. Okay. Uh And Bishop Perriman,

569
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna be playing it. He's been he's been here great. Yeah,

570
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: he was really good last week. Ronald Jones, your pal

571
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 1: from USC you're on, man, there's another last week came

572
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 1: up and had a big game. Now I will tell

573
00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 1: you this, Okay. Atlanta's defense has allowed two touchdowns and

574
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,719
Speaker 1: fewer than nineteen and a half fantasy points per game

575
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: the running backs since Week thirteen, the defense actually hadn't

576
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 1: been bad at all. Um, So Ronald Jones is a

577
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: fad for me. I feel like that's chasing the points

578
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: last week. On paper, last week was a good matchup.

579
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: I think the reason we stayed away from Road Joe

580
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 1: was just because we just couldn't trust him. We just

581
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: didn't know. But at least on paper against the Texans,

582
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: it was a good matchup. But I understood why everybody

583
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,880
Speaker 1: faded him. I got it. Yeah, Chris Godwin not practicing,

584
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 1: He's not gonna play. Can I sell you Justin Watson, O. J.

585
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: Howard or Cameron Braid not really? Well maybe maybe maybe

586
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: the tight ends I would say, maybe the tight ends

587
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: break more than Howard. I don't know so much about

588
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 1: about Justin Watson. I know people were really high on

589
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: him a couple of weeks ago, but I'm not I'm

590
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: not quite buying it just yet. Matt Gay is a

591
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: good play this week. So is uh Young Hoku. Um.

592
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: If you're looking for a kicker, those guys could be

593
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire. Maybe not Matt Gay. He's been

594
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: pretty good this year. Matt Ryan must start, Um, I

595
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: think so. I think so. In this week, we're we're

596
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: not sure about all the quarterbacks and stuff against the

597
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: Buck's secondary, who I know has been so. I know

598
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: that they sort of knock locked down on on Deshaun

599
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: Watson and DeAndre Hopkins. But I still trust Matt Ryan

600
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: this week. Uh. DeVonta Freeman had doesn't have as good

601
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: as a matchup this week as he did last weeknight.

602
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 1: I guess he's a flex starter, but I don't love

603
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: the matchup. Tampa Bay has been very good against running

604
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: backs this year. Julio Jones has been banged up. He's

605
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 1: dealing with knee and shoulder injuries. Keep tabs on his status.

606
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: See if he practices UH today and um, you should

607
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: be able to go with him. He could have an

608
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: absolutely huge game. Russell Gauge in a deep league, potentially

609
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: a sleeper Austin Hooper's and must start in Atlanta's defense.

610
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: Anytime you're playing against Jamis, there's always a chance. There's

611
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: a chance for those turnovers. He's gonna throw one to

612
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: the wrong jersey, and so Atlanta's defense is a play.

613
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 1: Eagles at Giants. This is again that I'm very interested

614
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: in because I will obviously to win, because the Cowboys

615
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,959
Speaker 1: don't deserve to go to the or win a division.

616
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 1: But the Eagles clinch the NFC East with a win

617
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 1: or a tie or a Cowboys lost for a tie.

618
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: And the Eagles are getting some players back, Jordan Howard,

619
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 1: although our James Palmer is reporting that Howard will come

620
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: back as the number three running back on the desk,

621
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 1: which right, so they're gonna use They're gonna use Miles

622
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: Sanders and then Boston Scott uh And so I think

623
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 1: you could feel safe in starting Mile Sanders this week.

624
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz is a play. He's been good for three

625
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: weeks in a row. And the Giants are garbage. Their

626
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 1: their defense is terrible against the past, especially so Wentz

627
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 1: in a game that is meaningful, is in play. Greg

628
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: Ward is in play this week as a sleeper DFS start. Uh.

629
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: Zach Ertz is banged up. He's got the rib injuries,

630
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: but he is practicing. And zach Ertz is a gamer.

631
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: You saw the commercial with his wife. He ain't quittin.

632
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: Zachantz is gonna play if he's out there, I'm starting.

633
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 1: And Dallas Gottardo Dallas Gotter maybe a better play than

634
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: zach Ertz this week. Both of them are are startable. Uh,

635
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: Dallas Scotter could see a lot of targets in this game.

636
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: Eagles defense special team also a play. Now on the

637
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: Giant side of things, we have seen this Eagles defense

638
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: gets smashed on the road by Ryan Fitzpatrick. Okay, this

639
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: Eagles defense is not good on the road. I like

640
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones this week. Maybe even if you're in a

641
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: twelve team league and you need a quarterback and he's

642
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire, I don't think that he would be,

643
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 1: but I can't imagine he will be. Daniel Jones is

644
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: playable this week. Sterling Shepherd is a really good play.

645
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: This Golden Tate in a you forget he played for

646
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 1: the Eagles. I didn't forget because because he did, absolutely

647
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: played for the Eagles. Absolutely nothing with the Eagles for correct.

648
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 1: Cadence Smith had a good game last week. Darius Layton, Uh,

649
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 1: he's he's slated to go. So I can make an

650
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 1: argument for starting any of the Giants receivers this week. Yeah,

651
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: Eagles are that bad. But plus, you know the Giants

652
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 1: have team cohesion because apparently Daniel Jones and Eli Manning

653
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 1: are out playing flip cup at bubbles or whatever. Yeah. Whatever,

654
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: And now we didn't mention sake line because if you yeah, uh,

655
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: Titans Texans playoff implications that Titans, and I hope they

656
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: make it because I don't have been fun that Titans

657
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: are a fun team to watch, Ryan, They've been. They

658
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: clinch a playoff berth with a win or a tie

659
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 1: and a Steeler's loss tie or a Steeler's loss and

660
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: a Colts loss or tie. Uh, the Titans are gonna

661
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. That the Texans. This is a this

662
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: is a Jekyl and High team. I mean they go

663
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 1: out one week and beat the Patriots and then the

664
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: next week they look like garbage. I feel like we've

665
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: seen enough of the texts. So Derrick Henry, which was

666
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: a smart move last week by the Titans, uh and

667
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: Mike Rabel. They sat him because the game was ultimately meaningless.

668
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 1: It's all about this week and he's going to be back,

669
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 1: So you get him in your lineup. Will Fuller, we

670
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: already know, Um, he's he's not coming back. Uh, he

671
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: won't help you. In fantasy Ryan Tannell has been one

672
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 1: of the hottest quarterbacks in fantasy football. Tanna Thrill. I

673
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: like it. Unless you have an elite quarterback, he should

674
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: be in your lineup. A. J. Brown came back down

675
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: earth a little bit last week. Get him back in

676
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: your lineup or keep up in your lineup, I should say,

677
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: even as coming back down to Earth still had a

678
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 1: forty your touchdown run. Yeah. So so he's where is

679
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 1: he gonna get drafted next year? H five rounds? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,

680
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: I think so. He reminds me of t O and

681
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 1: I think especially as long as Tannehill is back at

682
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 1: the quarterback, which I would imagine he will be. Yeah,

683
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: well he's They're they're gonna I believe he's in the

684
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 1: Is he in the final year of his contract? Raft

685
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 1: to look that up, But there's talking about potentially the

686
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,479
Speaker 1: Titans franchises he's going to be their quarterback next year.

687
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:32,479
Speaker 1: He will be the quarterback. I think in famously with

688
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: this offense and the talent that they have, he is

689
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 1: a guy that they need to bring back. Uh Marcus Mariota.

690
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: Uh sorry the answer. Maybe he'll be the quarterback in Chicago.

691
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 1: I don't think Bears fans would like that. On the

692
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: Houston side of things, Deshaun Watson who I will never

693
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 1: draft again unless I get him in like the eighth round.

694
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: I'm never drafting him again. That guy. Honestly, you might

695
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: be able to get him there next year. He was

696
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: either thirty points at a forty point effort or he

697
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: killed you, like in the championship against Tampa Bay. He

698
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: killed you, killed you in a smash spot. I don't

699
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:13,720
Speaker 1: trust to Shaun Watson, I'm sorry. I love his talent.

700
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 1: He was ridiculous in his rookie year. He's so inconsistent,

701
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: and part of it is offensive line is is not

702
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 1: that great, But Watson doesn't help him stuff at times either. Um,

703
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 1: so you're gonna play him? Carlos Hider, Duke Johnson, Marcus

704
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 1: this week? Are we on or off these guys? I mean,

705
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: especially Carlos Hide. Carlos Hide is probably the one that

706
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,800
Speaker 1: I would start. Duke Johnson just you know, he just

707
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 1: hasn't really done enough for me to to really worn

708
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: to start with Carlos High, I mean there are times

709
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: when they just feed him the football. Uh, he doesn't

710
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 1: have some touchdown upside, So I could I could see

711
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 1: starting him any other Texans, Like we know Will Fuller's out,

712
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 1: Kenny Stills, as a sleeper. He's sleeper play. I mean

713
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: especially with with with will Fuller out, Um, you know Stills.

714
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: Obviously it's not exactly the same player, but can do

715
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: some of the same things a little bit and and

716
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: he's always good for maybe an injin zone shout or two.

717
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:03,360
Speaker 1: So just to clarify with the Tannehill situation, so he

718
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,359
Speaker 1: is under contract. It looks like as I look at

719
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:12,280
Speaker 1: this here on a rootal world, it's nineteen point four million.

720
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: But we'll have to look a little bit deeper into that. Regardless,

721
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill. Uh, where's Tannehill get drafted? If he's with

722
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: the text and the Titans next season? I mean he's

723
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 1: ron pick, but is he like top twelve? Maybe I

724
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: do fear some big regression with him. Um, I mean

725
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 1: his his completion percentage and his like his touchdown rate

726
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:35,839
Speaker 1: has kind of been fairly high, and his interception rate

727
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 1: has been fairly low. And I just wonder whether or

728
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 1: not that's something that's sustainable again next year. Yeah, regardless,

729
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 1: in the here and now, he's been tremendous. He's been

730
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 1: He's been very very good. Uh, Redskins and Cowboys. I

731
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 1: have I have no faith in this team whatsoever. I

732
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 1: don't want Jason Garrett to be the coach next year.

733
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,919
Speaker 1: I hope it sucks because like I've been a fan

734
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: for forty years and so it sucks to think, well,

735
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,439
Speaker 1: I don't want them to win, but for the good

736
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: of the future of the franchise, I don't want there

737
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 1: to be any chance for Jason Garrett to be the

738
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 1: coach next year. So, uh, we'll see. But obviously the

739
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,919
Speaker 1: implication in terms of the playoffs is that Cowboys winning,

740
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: the Eagles lose, the Cowboys somehow win the NFC East.

741
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskin is not gonna play this week. It's gonna

742
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 1: be Case Kingdom Terry McLaurin for the Cowboys. I know,

743
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 1: because I feel like YE don't figure out a way

744
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 1: to get a win. Maybe Terry mcclorin has been dealing

745
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 1: with the effects of a concussion, and so you need

746
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 1: to keep status tabs on his status on Friday, because

747
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 1: if McLaurin is a go, he averaged right around sixteen

748
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 1: Fantasy points per game in games started by case Keenum

749
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: and uh. He was sidelined on Thursday, but he hasn't

750
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:49,240
Speaker 1: been ruled out yet. If he has ruled out. Steven

751
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: Sims said, how do you feel what Stephen Sims? I

752
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 1: mean he has being like a deep sleeper type, right.

753
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: I would be okay with Stephen Sims in the flex spot.

754
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 1: I'd be alright right now. Adrian Peterson has got a

755
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: outside chance. And when I say outside chance, I mean

756
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: a way outside chance of rushing for a thousand yards

757
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: this year? Is he a flex starter this week? If

758
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 1: you are hurting at the spot, I think he's a

759
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 1: flex start for you. I'm curious. I want to see

760
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,240
Speaker 1: how many yards I think he needs, like a hundred

761
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,879
Speaker 1: eighty or something. Yeah, he needs like a hundred eighty

762
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: to get to a thousand. Yep, exactly a hundred and eighty.

763
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 1: It's it's not happening. He's not getting a hundred and

764
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,959
Speaker 1: if he gets If he gets a hundred and eighty

765
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 1: yards this week on the ground against the Cowboy, Jason

766
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: Garrett will be asked like Jerry Jones might come down

767
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 1: and and and coach the final quarter. He would just

768
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 1: ask for you know, like those cop movies where they're like, hey,

769
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 1: turning your your badge and gun and you just leave

770
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 1: him on the desk and walk out. That's what will

771
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,879
Speaker 1: happen to Jason Garrett. By the way, I just looked

772
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,919
Speaker 1: up sport track because I'm trying to so free agent.

773
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 1: He's a free agent according to sport Track, and I

774
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 1: trust them, so I yeah, that's gonna be fun. Back

775
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 1: to this Cowboys game, Dad Prescott, that's another guy who

776
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,319
Speaker 1: killed me last week. He killed me. Doc is another

777
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 1: guy that if he had like eighteen, I would have

778
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: won a leak. But you gotta play him this week.

779
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,800
Speaker 1: Washington just gave up five touchdowns to Daniel Jones. You're playing,

780
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: You've gotta play doc A. Mari's a play, Gallops a

781
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 1: play Jason Wittens to play this week. The Redskins have

782
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 1: struggled against tight ends and the Cowboys defensive special teams.

783
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 1: I could see them being a top twelve play. I

784
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:22,240
Speaker 1: know they like week, I know they like Jason Witten's leadership,

785
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,840
Speaker 1: but why don't they just make Blake Jarwin they're starting

786
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 1: tight end, Like, why don't they just give him all

787
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,759
Speaker 1: the targets and let Blake Jarwin be that guy? Like

788
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: I don't I don't understand, And I believe Whitten was

789
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 1: quoted as saying that he doesn't feel like this is

790
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: going to potentially be his last game, so maybe he

791
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 1: wants to. I mean, Witten was decent this year for

792
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 1: you know, I started him for a long stretch of

793
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: the season and was not unhappy with the production this.

794
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: I mean, he slows molasses, but he at a bad position.

795
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: I mean, he was usable. Can you lose a step

796
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: when you didn't really have that many steps to the beginning.

797
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 1: But that's true, exactly exactly. So that's your look at

798
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and the Redskins. That's a FIfF Eastern Standard time.

799
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be very interesting because if you're on

800
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 1: red zone, they're probably gonna be bouncing back and forth

801
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,800
Speaker 1: to those two games. And you know, Eagles win, and

802
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,760
Speaker 1: if that, if the Giants are ahead in that game

803
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 1: and then the Cowboys are ahead, oh god, I thin

804
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 1: guys want to watch that game with like my laptop

805
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: open and Twitter just to watch the Cowboys and Eagles

806
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: fans just sort of tilt on social media. That's gonna

807
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: be fun. Uh. Steelers are Ravens playoffs scenario. Here are

808
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,439
Speaker 1: the Steelers. I hope they don't make the playoffs. Would

809
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 1: be embarrassing for them because they would get crushed in

810
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,839
Speaker 1: the first round. The Steelers can clinch a playoff berth

811
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: with a win and the Titans lost tie or a

812
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 1: tie and the Titans loss or a Titan's loss of

813
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: Colts win and the Raiders lost our tie because uh,

814
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 1: they have the strength of schedule there. So um, injuries,

815
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: Mason Rudoff is not going to play James Connor. Uh,

816
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: where is he gonna get dry? Like? And I said this,

817
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 1: I said this earlier in the week with you. The

818
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: guy came off of cancer, God bless him, and he

819
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: was really good last season. He just can't stay healthy. No,

820
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,000
Speaker 1: is he Is he a top thirty pick next year? No?

821
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 1: I don't think he's top thirty. I think he's he's

822
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: probably uh fourth or fifth round just because we're still

823
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,879
Speaker 1: hurting for running backs and unless something major happens, he's

824
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 1: gonna get most of the touches in that backfield next year.

825
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 1: It's hard to pass up. So um, we're gonna be

826
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: looking potentially at Bennie Stale and Jalon Samuels and I

827
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: can't trust either one of them. I can't trust either

828
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 1: one of them. Is there anyone in Pittsburgh's uniform that

829
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,879
Speaker 1: will be rolling out there this week that you can

830
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: trust honestly, Juju Deonte, James Washington, nobody know. It's so

831
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 1: much of it has to do with quarterback play too.

832
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: Like I just I don't trust any of the quarterbacks enough.

833
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 1: There's nobody there, especially not against this Ravens defense. There's nobody.

834
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,480
Speaker 1: Although we know that they're not gonna play their stars.

835
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,479
Speaker 1: We know Lamar is not gonna play. Obviously, mark Ingram

836
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 1: is not going to play. Yeah, I mean I don't

837
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:52,359
Speaker 1: know if I was gonna play, but he shouldn't play

838
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 1: for you. I mean yeah, if Eden's were a touchdown,

839
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,360
Speaker 1: he's giving you nothing nothing. Mark Andrews is banged up.

840
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: They're not gonna play him again. So you're looking at

841
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 1: Gus Edwards could win you a championship if you if

842
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: you still choose to play him, right exactly. Imagine if

843
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 1: Robert Griffin the three ends up as the top ten

844
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 1: quarterback this week. Oh yeah, I mean it's it's it

845
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 1: isn't It is certainly within the range of outcomes. Yeah,

846
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 1: I mean it's possible. Pittsburgh has been tough all year,

847
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: but and they have something to play for us, So

848
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,759
Speaker 1: maybe it's unlikely. But any quarterback who were on the

849
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: football you never know, So that's what you're looking at.

850
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you're not starting any Ravens this week that

851
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: are regular starters. If you want to tell me, I'm

852
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 1: gonna play Hayden Hurst this week, you know, Okay, if

853
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,279
Speaker 1: you're gonna play Gus Edwards this week, Okay, yeah, I

854
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,320
Speaker 1: got you. But um, there's not much else. Maybe the

855
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: Ravens defense, even if they do rest some of their guys.

856
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: Duck Hodges is playing at a very low level right now.

857
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 1: Colts Jaguars, Now, this is an interesting game because the

858
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 1: Jaguars defense has been trash for about a month. Yeah,

859
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: they have waved the white flag. I feel like they have.

860
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: Just if if you were in a two QB or

861
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 1: super flex league, are you rolling the dice and Jia

862
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 1: Kobe Perssette, Yeah, okay, yeah I think I would, just

863
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: because did you mentioned that the Jaguar defense has been

864
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 1: trashed lately? And it's weird because Bassett, well, he's not

865
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 1: really giving you big numbers. Right If you get twenty

866
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 1: points out oft that's kind of a huge day for him. Yeah,

867
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:20,520
Speaker 1: but every once in a while, he's got to run

868
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 1: for a touchdown. He'll do that every so often, and

869
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 1: that's cool. So Brissette is a two QB super flex option.

870
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,879
Speaker 1: Marlon Mack is almost a must start. Yeah, at this point,

871
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,359
Speaker 1: you're starting. I mean, he killed the Panthers. Everyone kills

872
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: the Panthers. Now he'll run through the Jags. The Jaguars

873
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:36,839
Speaker 1: have given up the most fantasy points of running backs

874
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 1: in the last four weeks. So Marlon Mack is a

875
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 1: very good play. Jack Doyle's a borderline tight end one

876
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 1: this week. The Colts defense is obviously playable, Hilton. I mean,

877
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 1: because I mean we know what his ceiling can be

878
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 1: when he's right. He just he just hasn't looked right. No,

879
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,919
Speaker 1: I don't know, man. I mean, he's a flex starter

880
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 1: at best for me, and there's so many other players

881
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 1: I'd play over him this week. You know, it's ridiculous,

882
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 1: but it's wide receiver three flex. That's probably it for me.

883
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,400
Speaker 1: For t U I and in what's been a law season,

884
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 1: Gardner minshew, I'm not playing d J. Chart came back

885
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 1: last week and uh not in the statutes, but he

886
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,319
Speaker 1: was physically on the field. Hard to play. This week.

887
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: Chris Kinley might be the best Jaguars wide receiver play

888
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 1: from a fantasy perspective, and um, I don't know if

889
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: I'm starting him so right now. For Net is probably

890
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: the only guy that you can really trust their four.

891
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 1: Net is a little bit banged up, but all indications

892
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: are that he will be a go this week. By

893
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 1: the way, is it is it coincidence or irony that

894
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 1: Chris Kindley, who was a notorious like huge Star Wars fan,

895
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,399
Speaker 1: he started to play his best right around the rise

896
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 1: of Skywalker. We'll see, We'll see. Maybe maybe he's got

897
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: some some some force life in him and he can

898
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: put up a nice stat line for those deep league

899
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 1: fantasy owners. Will see what happened for Net did not

900
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 1: practice on Thursday because he's dealing with the neck injury. Um,

901
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 1: but he did not express any concern uh to the

902
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: media about playing this week, but still keep taps on

903
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 1: his status Raiders at Broncos. Now, the Raiders can still

904
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 1: make the playoffs, right, you can clinch a playoff berth

905
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:09,919
Speaker 1: with a win and the Steeler's loss and the Titans lost.

906
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: Those things are not ridiculous, Like these were all very

907
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: possible things right, Like the Raiders could beat Denvert. The

908
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 1: Steelers very well could lose to the Ravens. And the

909
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 1: Titans could very well lose the thing like this could happen. Yeah,

910
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,359
Speaker 1: so that I don't know. Again, I want to see

911
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:26,879
Speaker 1: Tennessee get in there. I think they'd be a fun

912
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 1: team in the first round, maybe even if they didn't win. Uh,

913
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 1: they're gonna be a tough out in the Saints learned

914
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,280
Speaker 1: that last week Josh Jacobs posted on the social media

915
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 1: that he had a surprise operation to clear up and infection. Uh,

916
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 1: it was a superficial skin infection. Are they're gonna play him?

917
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,720
Speaker 1: I don't know why you would dealing with the shoulder.

918
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 1: Why let him let him I know, I know he

919
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:54,279
Speaker 1: wants to play. I get it. Let him rest and

920
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,919
Speaker 1: not for nothing. But deshan uh DeAndre Washington, he was good.

921
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 1: He's been good. Yeah, two of his last three games

922
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 1: where Jacobs hasn't played, Washington has been a pretty valuable asset. So, uh,

923
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 1: if he's on your team, I'm assuming he's not on

924
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 1: the waiver wire. If he's on your team, I mean

925
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:12,719
Speaker 1: eight team plus in two of his last three games

926
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,239
Speaker 1: or Jacobs didn't play. If jacobsn't play this week, h

927
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: Washington is certainly in the RB two conversation. I don't

928
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: like Derek Carr this week. I don't like Tyroe Williams

929
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,479
Speaker 1: this week. I'm not playing Hunter Renfro despite his big game.

930
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,440
Speaker 1: Darren Waller is in play because because there's a lot

931
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 1: of target get a lot of targets. Now. On the

932
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 1: Broncos side of things, this is a good matchup for

933
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,760
Speaker 1: Drew Lock. If you're in a two QB or super

934
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 1: flex league, do you row with the rookie? Uh? He

935
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:42,439
Speaker 1: is one of my last options. He's he's he's down.

936
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 1: He's very well down the list of guys i'm looking at. Uh.

937
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay had a good game last week, and I

938
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 1: would say he's an RB two flex this week. The

939
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,439
Speaker 1: guy really like this week is Corland Sutton. Of course,

940
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: Sutton should be in your lineup, so you've got to

941
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:57,839
Speaker 1: make room for him in your line up every week.

942
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 1: He hasn't had great numbers for three weeks in a row.

943
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 1: I think it's high was like around eleven fantasy points.

944
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 1: But the Raiders are given up. They've given up thirteen

945
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 1: touchdowns and the fifth most Fantasy points to perimeter receivers.

946
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: Sutton could smash this week. He really could. He could

947
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 1: go out on a high note and have you thinking

948
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 1: that he's a top thirty pick next year. I think

949
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 1: he will be tough off of this, off of this

950
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: game to put a you know, a proverbial cherry on

951
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 1: top uh me. It's been a pretty nice season, so

952
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 1: I'm looking at what he's done in His quarterbacks have

953
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 1: been Joe Flacco and Drew Lock, I mean, you know,

954
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:35,799
Speaker 1: and and um Brandon Allen. Right, so we'll see. I'm

955
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 1: curious to see what the Broncos do with quarterback. Like,

956
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: I don't know that they're going to draft somebody or

957
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,560
Speaker 1: bring somebody in, but you know, maybe with Lock getting

958
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,399
Speaker 1: a little more season and getting a little more chance

959
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: to work together, Yeah, I can see people reaching a

960
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,359
Speaker 1: little bit for Courtland Sutton next year. Broncos defense also

961
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 1: wuld play, although they were a bit of a disappointment

962
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 1: last week. Cardinals at Rams. This is one of those

963
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 1: games where again I don't know if the Rams are

964
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 1: gonna play anybody. I mean they they have nothing to

965
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:03,959
Speaker 1: play for. They have nothing to play for what now?

966
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 1: To me, Todd Gurley should not touch the ball. He

967
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 1: should be inactive in this game. Why because you basically

968
00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 1: made a big stink all year long? About how you

969
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:16,240
Speaker 1: were going to make sure that you got him enough

970
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 1: rest in the first half of the season where you're

971
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 1: potentially going to use him as a workhorse in the

972
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 1: second half. That's what they did. They have nothing to

973
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 1: play for. Now, why would you run Tied Gurley out there? Yeah?

974
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:26,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's like it's like a little kid

975
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 1: who has a toy and they don't really want to

976
00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:30,600
Speaker 1: use it, and then somebody else wants to play with it,

977
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 1: and like, oh no, no, no, no, no no. You

978
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,080
Speaker 1: know you don't get to play with it. You don't

979
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,439
Speaker 1: get it anymore. You had your opportunity and you didn't

980
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:42,280
Speaker 1: do anything. So yeah, So I mean again, Week seventeen,

981
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:45,360
Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's a it's a difficult week to

982
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 1: navigate from a fantasy perspective. Uh, Darrell Henderson is dealing

983
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:54,279
Speaker 1: with an ankle injury. I mean Malcolm Brown again, If

984
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,399
Speaker 1: if Gurley is out or not expected to play, then

985
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 1: Brown and or Henderson are going to be in play

986
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: and fans sure, but it's not sure? Or is but

987
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:04,800
Speaker 1: is this going to be a game where Sean McVeigh

988
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 1: goes full McVeigh and just decides he wants to throw

989
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:10,959
Speaker 1: the ball forty times because you blake Bortles. It might be,

990
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:14,959
Speaker 1: it might be I don't know. Uh, you can't trust Cup,

991
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,600
Speaker 1: you can't trust Woods. You're not gonna play Brandon Cooks regardless.

992
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,279
Speaker 1: Hopefully Tyler Higbee is in there because Higbie has been

993
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 1: the saving graces for a lot of flying great and

994
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,040
Speaker 1: it's gonna be arigacy to see where uh the industry

995
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:28,160
Speaker 1: is going to be on him next year, which is

996
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 1: actually because a couple of when they when because they

997
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,480
Speaker 1: drafted both Higbee and Everett in the same draft. I'm

998
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 1: not mistaken. And I at the time I sort of

999
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 1: like Tyler Higbee coming out of college, and I thought

1000
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 1: he had a chance to be productive and it it

1001
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,760
Speaker 1: didn't work out. Obviously, we talked all the time. Tightens

1002
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,479
Speaker 1: usually take a couple of years to kind of find

1003
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,919
Speaker 1: their stride a little bit. But even earlier in the year,

1004
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 1: it just looked like they were using him more as

1005
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,880
Speaker 1: the blocking titan and Everett is the pass catching titan.

1006
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 1: And now I think they've realized that, oh wait, yeah,

1007
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:52,840
Speaker 1: Tyler can he can actually catch passes and be an

1008
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:56,840
Speaker 1: offensive threat. Yeah? So, um, but again, guys, just keep tabs.

1009
00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:58,799
Speaker 1: I mean, we're here on Friday morning. Uh, you know,

1010
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,919
Speaker 1: nine am on the left coat and we haven't gotten

1011
00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 1: a lot of the practice stuff in uh, and we

1012
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: won't before the end of this podcast. But if there

1013
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 1: are reports that the Rams are gonna sit there starters,

1014
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 1: and I would not be surprised if that's the case. Uh,

1015
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:12,800
Speaker 1: you can't play a lot of your Rams who you

1016
00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:15,960
Speaker 1: typically would play, uh in fantasy. On the Cardinal side,

1017
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,880
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray's dealing with that hamstring. He remained limited on Thursday.

1018
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna be a go for

1019
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 1: this contest as well. And remember it's a four East

1020
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 1: Coast time start, so uh start time. So this is

1021
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a difficult decision. You're playing Kenyan

1022
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,040
Speaker 1: Drake this week. Larry Fitzgerald, this could be his last game.

1023
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 1: Does he just go out in a huge like Jalen Rams,

1024
00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 1: He's not playing, He's not playing. I would love to

1025
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,080
Speaker 1: see the you know, like sort of like Kobe's last

1026
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:43,680
Speaker 1: game right where he took like a million shots and

1027
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,799
Speaker 1: he scored sixty points and everybody like tuned into that.

1028
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 1: Like I would love the Cardinals to just give Larry

1029
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:50,359
Speaker 1: Fitzgerald like twenty targets. Yeah, just load him up. Yeah,

1030
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 1: that that would be that would be great. So if

1031
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:55,319
Speaker 1: you're of the nostalgic type, Larry Fitzgerald could be in

1032
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 1: play there as a flex starter. By the way, how

1033
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 1: how high will you have to draft Kyler because that's

1034
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,359
Speaker 1: the guy that I'm targeting Yiler Mariray next year. How

1035
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:02,799
Speaker 1: high are you gonna have to reach for him? Like,

1036
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:07,160
Speaker 1: so I did, I did my rankings. I had him

1037
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 1: six at quarterback and it's but it's I mean, we

1038
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 1: just got through Christmas. I don't know. I mean things

1039
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:13,759
Speaker 1: are going to change a million times of course now

1040
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:17,560
Speaker 1: and then. But so if you where would you where

1041
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:20,359
Speaker 1: would you project Josh Allen and Russell Wilson to get

1042
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 1: drafted next season. Russell Wilson's a weird case. I feel

1043
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:25,200
Speaker 1: like people always like want to count him out and

1044
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:27,000
Speaker 1: he falls to like the ninth round all the time,

1045
00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:28,840
Speaker 1: and then you like look up and he's like a

1046
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 1: top five quarterback. So I think that happened to him.

1047
00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 1: I think I think people were going to reach for

1048
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:34,840
Speaker 1: Josh Allen too. I think I think he may go

1049
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,040
Speaker 1: off the board in like the eighth round. So then

1050
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,239
Speaker 1: to me, I think Kyler is right in that same

1051
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 1: ballpark you're looking at, you know, maybe seventh rounds. He's

1052
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 1: the guy that early on, like because we're all looking

1053
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 1: for the next Mahomes or the next Lamar Jackson. I

1054
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 1: feel like Kyler is is set to be that guy

1055
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,320
Speaker 1: could be here, Yeah, I could think, yeah, no question

1056
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:54,880
Speaker 1: about that. Uh. Last game, this is this is a

1057
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: big one from Marcus here yea for the Niners at Seahawks.

1058
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,280
Speaker 1: Let's go through the playoffs. This means either either at

1059
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:02,719
Speaker 1: home or maybe like going to Dallas or Philadelphia, Like

1060
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 1: that's what it's Philadelphia, not Dallas. Fortnighters win the NF

1061
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,239
Speaker 1: NFC West with a win or tie. They clicked a

1062
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 1: first run by with a win or a tie and

1063
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,400
Speaker 1: a Packer's loss or tie or a tie and the

1064
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 1: Saints losser tie. The clinch whole field advantage throughout the

1065
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 1: NFC with a win or a tie and a Packer's

1066
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:24,120
Speaker 1: loss or tie and a Saints loss or tie. If

1067
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 1: you got all that, good, look, congratulations to you. Uh.

1068
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 1: The big news in this game is at the Seahawks

1069
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:33,320
Speaker 1: had to go out inside Marshaw Lanche and Robert Turban

1070
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,879
Speaker 1: and Robert Turbin. So it's sort of a you want

1071
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,759
Speaker 1: to talk nostalgia, right there are those two uh long times.

1072
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,160
Speaker 1: The reports are Travis Homer is going to get most

1073
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,879
Speaker 1: of the work there, you know. And when I heard

1074
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:46,360
Speaker 1: that Travis Hommer was going to be the guy for

1075
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, I had this question lined up from Marcus

1076
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:54,000
Speaker 1: all week. Okay, in fantasy football, is Travis Homer ago

1077
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 1: or A He's yeah, he's A he's A. Don't I'm

1078
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:00,799
Speaker 1: not starting trying. I'm not starting Travis Homer this week

1079
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 1: against the forty Niners. Can't do it. You can't do it.

1080
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,800
Speaker 1: You might get a lot of touches. I mean like yeah, again,

1081
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 1: so what would he be? So so Carson was the one,

1082
00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 1: Penny was the two, and then uh Procise was the three.

1083
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 1: So Travis Holm was their fourth. I mean, look, we remember,

1084
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,719
Speaker 1: let's not repeat the disasters of last week, right when

1085
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:26,279
Speaker 1: we all jumped on the Mike Boone bandwagon and like

1086
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 1: you know, second quarter, were like, hey, maybe there's a

1087
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 1: reason he was the third string guy, like Travis Homer

1088
00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:34,040
Speaker 1: was the fourth guy. Let's remember this. Let's remember this. Um,

1089
00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 1: what are we thinking about your your Niners this week?

1090
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 1: Most it has proven to be a flex starter, every

1091
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 1: singles having been great. But he's getting into the end zone, right,

1092
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 1: So are we starting Garoppolo? Are we starting Debo? Are

1093
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 1: we starting Samuel's uh Sanders obviously uh kills in play

1094
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:53,320
Speaker 1: and and Robbie Gould doesn't play. Yeah, most of were starting.

1095
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 1: I think we're starting. I think we're starting both the

1096
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 1: wide receivers, uh, just because I think they're going to

1097
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 1: have to throw the football at least a little bit

1098
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 1: against the Seattle defense. Garoppolo for sure in two QB,

1099
00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 1: two QB and super flex leagues, I'm not quite as

1100
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 1: confident in just a standard or a traditional lineup. So

1101
00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 1: that's probably where I lean. With the forty Niners and

1102
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,759
Speaker 1: the Niner defense, I actually think I don't know that

1103
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:18,839
Speaker 1: I would play the forty Niners defense this week, just

1104
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 1: for whatever reason. Russell Wilson has their number throughout the

1105
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 1: throughout his career, Russell Wilson has just had their number,

1106
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 1: and that's reason enough for me to stay away from him.

1107
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:30,240
Speaker 1: Speaking of Russell Wilson, I'm gonna give you his last

1108
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 1: six games. Not great, Okay, last week eleven points, week

1109
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:39,719
Speaker 1: before nineteen week before that, six week before that sixteen nine,

1110
00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:42,319
Speaker 1: week before that, nine and a half week before that

1111
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 1: against the Niners, actually two weeks before that, they run

1112
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 1: a by uh in week eleven, sixteen six. Is Russell

1113
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 1: Wilson a must start this week? He's not? Um. Yeah,

1114
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:57,480
Speaker 1: I know that people want to start him. I know

1115
00:53:57,560 --> 00:53:59,880
Speaker 1: that he has a high ceiling. But I don't know.

1116
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: And I would say that he is a must start

1117
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:04,799
Speaker 1: just because what you said, those numbers you ran through.

1118
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 1: He has let a lot of people down. He has

1119
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: hurt you a lot in the Fantasy playoffs. Here's the quarterbacks.

1120
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:14,200
Speaker 1: I'm playing over Russell this week. I'm playing Jamis over him.

1121
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:16,360
Speaker 1: I don't trust Jamis, but I'm playing him. I'm playing

1122
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 1: Doc now outside of the obvious, like Mahomes and Brees.

1123
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:20,640
Speaker 1: I mean, you're gonna play I play Rogers over him.

1124
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,640
Speaker 1: I'd play Brady over him. I play Once over him.

1125
00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 1: I played Tannehill. Uh. Did I mentioned Matt Ryan. I

1126
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,799
Speaker 1: play him over him as well. So I I have

1127
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:34,160
Speaker 1: Russell outside of my top ten this week. I just

1128
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:36,919
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know the Niners. I mean, both

1129
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:39,840
Speaker 1: teams are playing for a lot. There's a lot on

1130
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:44,359
Speaker 1: the line here. There really is, Um, But I don't

1131
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: know where Tyler Lockett's gone. And I get it, like,

1132
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:49,759
Speaker 1: you know, he was sick, so okay, you know you

1133
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 1: give him a breakdown. And this guy, this guy was

1134
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,279
Speaker 1: dealing with a nullness. He had that one big game

1135
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:56,520
Speaker 1: against Carolina and then last week just disappeared again. What

1136
00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:00,279
Speaker 1: do you do with Tyler Lockett this week? I keep saying,

1137
00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 1: I can't quit Tyler lock It against your team. Even so,

1138
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,279
Speaker 1: the Niner past defense the last few weeks has not

1139
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 1: been great. They have been giving up some yards. They

1140
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,640
Speaker 1: have been allowing teams to move the football through the air.

1141
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 1: The problem is, even a good matchups the the Seahawks

1142
00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:20,319
Speaker 1: just aren't looking in Lockett's direction. That said, I am

1143
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:22,840
Speaker 1: a sucker for punishment and I probably start him. It

1144
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:26,240
Speaker 1: probably flex him. Anybody else on Seattle's roster, like Jacob Hollister,

1145
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:30,960
Speaker 1: Are we playing him this week? Um? Hollister might be

1146
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,600
Speaker 1: the only one I consider, just because the Seahawks last

1147
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,040
Speaker 1: week notwithstanding, they find ways to get him the football,

1148
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 1: especially near the end zone. They tend to look for

1149
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,480
Speaker 1: him generally near the goal line. So I would I

1150
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:44,600
Speaker 1: would maybe start him and just hope out and hope

1151
00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:48,000
Speaker 1: for a red zone target or two. So, UM, that's

1152
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:49,840
Speaker 1: gonna be a fun one. That's that's obviously that's a

1153
00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:53,200
Speaker 1: Sunday night game for a lot of the marbles. Let's

1154
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,839
Speaker 1: just put it that way. Uh in that in that

1155
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 1: division and uh in the NFC. So that's your look

1156
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,879
Speaker 1: at the Week seventeen matchups. And you know, I apologize

1157
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:06,960
Speaker 1: because the analysis in some of these games, I simply

1158
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:09,680
Speaker 1: don't know Marcus and I we don't know who's gonna play,

1159
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,439
Speaker 1: and we don't know how much they're going to play

1160
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:15,319
Speaker 1: if they do play. So again, this is one of

1161
00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 1: those scenarios where it's better to just keep this in

1162
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:22,200
Speaker 1: the DFS world. It's a DFS week and traditional fantasy football. Um,

1163
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:23,719
Speaker 1: you're gonna be looking at a lot of guys and

1164
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 1: and we have seen this over the years where players

1165
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,400
Speaker 1: sort of come out of nowhere in Week seventeens and

1166
00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:30,919
Speaker 1: have big games and if you start, if you're smart

1167
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,600
Speaker 1: enough to start them, god bless you. But we are

1168
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,080
Speaker 1: going to see that this week too. Were listen, I

1169
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:39,440
Speaker 1: don't Travis Homers a fourth round a fourth string running

1170
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:41,719
Speaker 1: back if he ends up in the top twenty running

1171
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:43,880
Speaker 1: back this week. I wouldn't be surprised because it's it's

1172
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 1: just one of those it's it's one of those weird,

1173
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:49,440
Speaker 1: weird weeks. So before we let you guys go, you

1174
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:53,440
Speaker 1: know what time it is. Are you ready? It's fantasy

1175
00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:58,399
Speaker 1: bold prediction time. Well, I love that voice. I tell you,

1176
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,560
Speaker 1: Matt money Smith he had he had to smoke a

1177
00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:03,960
Speaker 1: lot of cigarettes of that voice when he was a kid.

1178
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:06,920
Speaker 1: Uh no, Bill, I'm gonna let you in on this

1179
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 1: one too, by the way, so you better you bet.

1180
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:12,320
Speaker 1: And I don't want packers. I want something else. No packers,

1181
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 1: both predictions. I don't want to do anything about Like Alan,

1182
00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear anything about that. I'll give

1183
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 1: you a minute there to take a look and see

1184
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,360
Speaker 1: what you're gonna talk about. But Marcus Grant you go first.

1185
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 1: All right, my bold prediction it actually has to do

1186
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 1: with a couple of names that you mentioned earlier in

1187
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:31,200
Speaker 1: the podcast. Two quarterbacks. We'll end up in the top ten.

1188
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 1: Oh I know, I'm gonna guess one. Go for it.

1189
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 1: R Gee he is one. He is one, and the

1190
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 1: other one Tyrod Taylor. I'm those two quarterbacks are gonna

1191
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 1: go out and and open some eyes and you know, really,

1192
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 1: I think in traditional fantasy, no one started, and I

1193
00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:53,720
Speaker 1: can I can see some folks making some DFS lineups

1194
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:55,320
Speaker 1: with those guys in them, but nobody's going to start

1195
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:57,800
Speaker 1: them in traditional fantasy. But those guys are both going

1196
00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:01,200
Speaker 1: to be top ten Fantasy quarterbacks and weeks seventeen. That's

1197
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 1: my Bowl prediction. All right, I'll go next with Nabila.

1198
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,440
Speaker 1: You you got something for us? Are you ready? You

1199
00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:08,080
Speaker 1: want me to get ready? Yeah, I'm ready, but you

1200
00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 1: can go first, go ahead. I think that Travis Homer

1201
00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 1: is going to have a big game here. I I

1202
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:17,120
Speaker 1: actually when I was in college, I went to University

1203
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,360
Speaker 1: of Miami and I was an intern in the player

1204
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 1: personnel department and we actually recruited Travis Homer. So yeah,

1205
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:24,480
Speaker 1: I've seen him as a high school So you've got

1206
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:27,480
Speaker 1: Travis Hommer history then yeah, so sorry, so you're a

1207
00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 1: Homer not He did have that one play in that

1208
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:35,320
Speaker 1: that in that game, was it the fake punt? Yeah?

1209
00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 1: So I think he's gonna have a big game. Try

1210
00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:41,080
Speaker 1: I have Travis Homer like in my top twenty five

1211
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:44,080
Speaker 1: running backs this week, just like you know, Mike Boone,

1212
00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:46,360
Speaker 1: I think we all went a little overboard with I

1213
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 1: learned my lesson there, and the owners are obviously not

1214
00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,479
Speaker 1: not the best matchup in the world, but I still

1215
00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:54,560
Speaker 1: have him as a potential XER. So I'm gonna give

1216
00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:57,040
Speaker 1: you two. The first one is that Gus Edwards is

1217
00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 1: going to be a top ten running back. He's gonna

1218
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:03,080
Speaker 1: score twice. Okay. I have a good story about him too.

1219
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,200
Speaker 1: He used to be he used to be at Miami. Also,

1220
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:07,360
Speaker 1: he got injured and then he you know, he transferred

1221
00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:10,360
Speaker 1: to Rutgers with the Miami guy too. So Gus the Bus,

1222
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:14,080
Speaker 1: who is going to see all of the goal line opportunities.

1223
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 1: I mean, Lamar's not there. I don't know that they're

1224
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:18,680
Speaker 1: gonna give r G three the same sort of goal

1225
00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,520
Speaker 1: line chances. They'll probably just give the ball to the bus. Okay,

1226
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:24,080
Speaker 1: I say, gust the Bus has a big game, and

1227
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:28,360
Speaker 1: Corland Sutton, we'll finish in the top five at wide

1228
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 1: receiver this week five. Now he has he's had three

1229
00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:33,240
Speaker 1: kind of black games in a row. I say he

1230
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 1: finishes in the top five, and Sutton finishes this season

1231
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 1: on a high note, gets everybody in fantasy talking about

1232
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,960
Speaker 1: him next year, where he's gonna be picked. How high.

1233
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:46,040
Speaker 1: He's gonna be ranked ranked at wide receiver. Cortland. Sutton

1234
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 1: is going to have a big game. So I think

1235
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 1: I should let Marcus finish the show out here. Now,

1236
00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 1: you don't have I don't have any clever one of

1237
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 1: your one of your clever and itteins us. So at

1238
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 1: the end of every show on MO days, I will

1239
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:04,200
Speaker 1: say this, guys. Um, So, starting now as you as

1240
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:07,520

Speaker 1: Friday's next week, we're gonna be on Mondays and Fridays,

1242
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:13,920

1243
01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:16,080
Speaker 1: know if in the post season. I believe we're gonna

1244
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 1: be on twice a week in the postseason. The days

1245
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:23,760
Speaker 1: I'm not sure, we're still in the negotiation for that. Well,

1246
01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna be here all right. We're gonna be talking dfs,

1247
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna be talking about playoff challenge, we're gonna be

1248
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:33,200
Speaker 1: talking about next year's drafts. So if you still want

1249
01:00:33,200 --> 01:00:36,160
