Speaker 1: Big Rappers theme. Ha Florio, We had a lot of
Speaker 1: big l on line of Block Live and go to
Speaker 1: the notorious b I g here on a Monday. As
Speaker 1: we're getting it going with the Fantasy Freestyle. Remember we're
Speaker 1: gonna holler at the hashtags stats over beat Cipher a
Speaker 1: little bit later on. So whether you are in the
Speaker 1: chat room on the YouTube stream or if you want
Speaker 1: to holler at me a little bit later on in
Speaker 1: the show, the number to call is eight four four
Speaker 1: eight four three six eight seven nine. Let's get it
Speaker 1: started with some news and notes here from around the NFL.
Speaker 1: The first thing I want to say is check this out.
Speaker 1: Mike Mularkey and the Tennessee Titans have decided to uh split.
Speaker 1: They've mutually decided to go their separate ways. Remember there
Speaker 1: was a lot of talk that Malarkey was gonna get
Speaker 1: fired at the end of the regular season. The Titans.
Speaker 1: Then one week sevent team they pulled the upset in
Speaker 1: Kansas City and wild card round, a lot of people
Speaker 1: thought he saved his job. In fact that it is
Speaker 1: not the case. They are moving on, which creates now
Speaker 1: a seventh opening in the NFL. I think this is
Speaker 1: in question because listen, malarkey, they overperformed this year. Okay,
Speaker 1: they go to the playoffs, they win a playoff game.
Speaker 1: If you talk to any Tennessee Titans fan at the
Speaker 1: beginning of the season and said, hey, if I tell
Speaker 1: you you're gonna win one playoff game this season, and
Speaker 1: you know Marcus Mariota would not have a career threatening injury,
Speaker 1: would you take that, I think most Titans fans would
Speaker 1: say yes and continuing to build. But listen, we're getting
Speaker 1: now reports that they may interview Mike Vrabel as an
Speaker 1: option there in Tennessee. There are also reports that Josh McDaniels,
Speaker 1: the page its offensive coordinator, would quote unquote but prefer
Speaker 1: the Titans and to any of the other jobs he
Speaker 1: has been linked to. But there is a lot of
Speaker 1: reports right now that McDaniels will in fact be the
Speaker 1: next head coach of the Indianapolis Colts. It sounds like
Speaker 1: he is going all in on believing Andrew Luck will
Speaker 1: be ready to go. You gotta figure, if you're Josh
Speaker 1: McDaniels has an offensive mind, having Andrew Luck would be great.
Speaker 1: So yes, there are reports that Josh McDaniels is expected
Speaker 1: to be the new head coach of the Indianapolis Colts.
Speaker 1: Also reports that Matt Patricia will be the next head
Speaker 1: coach of the Detroit Lions. Okay, we are also getting
Speaker 1: reports now that it is going to be Pat Shermer
Speaker 1: as the front runner going to the New York Football Giants.
Speaker 1: And remember, I think this is important because there have
Speaker 1: been reports that wherever Pat Shermer goes, he is going
Speaker 1: to try to take Case Keenum with him. I think
Speaker 1: that has implications for one Eli Manning potentially now being
Speaker 1: in the quarterback merry go round in this offseason. You
Speaker 1: gotta think, if you're Shermer and you go to the
Speaker 1: Giants and you take your boy Case Keenum with you,
Speaker 1: I think Case Keenum comes on a short term contract
Speaker 1: on a one or two kind of year, prove it
Speaker 1: kind of deal, because I still think that the Giants
Speaker 1: are going to take a quarterback number two overall, it
Speaker 1: will probably be Rosen, But then you take Keenum maybe
Speaker 1: as the bridge guy to get him there. I think
Speaker 1: that is a viable fit, meaning that Eli Manning may
Speaker 1: wind up being in the quarterback carousel. Places like Denver,
Speaker 1: places like Jacksonville might be interested in that. Remember also
Speaker 1: last week when I did my head coaching ranks for
Speaker 1: the openings, well, think about the ones that are now filled.
Speaker 1: I said Oakland was one. They got the big name.
Speaker 1: I said, I liked Detroit, and I liked Indianapolis. In
Speaker 1: the middle right, they got the hot coordinators from New England.
Speaker 1: I said that lower than that were the New York Giants,
Speaker 1: then the Chicago Bears and the Arizona Cardinals, and that
Speaker 1: they were gonna have to try and get retreads or coordinators,
Speaker 1: that they were going to be a year early on.
Speaker 1: And that's what's happening Sherman now potentially with the Giants.
Speaker 1: Remember how the Bears went ahead and got Nagy, a
Speaker 1: coordinator from Kansas City, was probably a year early with it.
Speaker 1: And now there are reports that out there in Arizona
Speaker 1: that um, they are looking at the Patriots linebackers coach.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about this a little bit later on. The
Speaker 1: Patriots could have their coaching ranks completely eviscerated in this offseason,
Speaker 1: But that would be another example of trying to get
Speaker 1: an up and coming guy as a stretch role for
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals because they are not attracting talent. We
Speaker 1: will see who kind of is in the run aside
Speaker 1: aside from Mike Vrabel for this Tennessee Titans opening, and
Speaker 1: we'll see if Malarkey surfaces somewhere else. That is not
Speaker 1: the only change in Tennessee after they are now gone
Speaker 1: from the NFL playoffs. There is words that DeMarco Murray
Speaker 1: is likely to be cut um he would take to
Speaker 1: take that cap hit off. The Tennessee Titans looks like
Speaker 1: they believe in Derrick Henry, Marcus Mariota and maybe a
Speaker 1: different style of offense. Remember earlier in the season when
Speaker 1: Richard Matthews was saying that they liked maybe going no
Speaker 1: huddle a little bit more, they liked their four minute
Speaker 1: offense a little bit more. There were a lot of
Speaker 1: talk about how Malarkey's offense this exotic smash mouth, which
Speaker 1: is probably the last time we're gonna get to say
Speaker 1: exotic smash mouth. If they kind of evolve into the
Speaker 1: twenty one century, it could be interesting things for guys
Speaker 1: like Marcus Mariota next year, and keep an eye on
Speaker 1: Corey David's next year. We had a Corey Davis citing
Speaker 1: two touchdowns in that game against the Patriots. But de
Speaker 1: Marco Murray, what is he worth out there as a
Speaker 1: potential free agent? I gotta tell you, I would look
Speaker 1: elsewhere if I'm a team in the running back market,
Speaker 1: a team like Detroit, a team like the Giants. Okay,
Speaker 1: I would rather have Carlos Hide than DeMarco Murray. Marco
Speaker 1: Murray has turned thirty this year. De Marco Murray, in
Speaker 1: my opinion, is one of those Kia running backs. My neck,
Speaker 1: my back, always something wrong with DeMarco Murray. I don't
Speaker 1: think I'd open up the Brinks truck for a guy
Speaker 1: like him. In running back news, also, we're getting reports
Speaker 1: again that the Steelers will in fact franchise tag Levy
Speaker 1: on Bell, giving him another season under the franchise tag,
Speaker 1: getting something like fourteen fifteen million dollars for that as
Speaker 1: the franchise tag. But I gotta tell you, I think
Speaker 1: that this is then going into the kind of Kirk
Speaker 1: Cousins territory where they may squeeze all the juice out
Speaker 1: of the orange they can, and maybe the Pittsburgh Steelers
Speaker 1: decide that they want to take one more run at
Speaker 1: it because it looks like Big Ben will be coming back.
Speaker 1: But I'll have the same narrative on the Pittsburgh Steelers
Speaker 1: one year big Ben's last ride for retirement, when you
Speaker 1: still have Antonio Brown and you still have levy On Bell.
Speaker 1: If they sour the waters with Levy On Belle, though,
Speaker 1: I think he will be gone as soon as he
Speaker 1: is allowed to when they stop franchise tagging him. I
Speaker 1: think that is very interesting. You have Martavis Bryant saying
Speaker 1: he wants to come back with the Pittsburgh Steelers. I
Speaker 1: think the Steelers will take one more run at it.
Speaker 1: And if you ask me, if you listen to the show,
Speaker 1: you know I believe the Steelers a game, if they
Speaker 1: play it, is better than anyone else's a game. But
Speaker 1: the problem is they are not able to call upon
Speaker 1: that when they needed, whether it is the regular season
Speaker 1: against the Patriots or in a tight playoff game this
Speaker 1: week against the Jaguars. The last note I will have
Speaker 1: for you here is a R fifteen Allen Robinson saying
Speaker 1: that he will be healthy he will take his physicals
Speaker 1: and look to be cleared before free agency starts in March.
Speaker 1: I think a R fifteen is a very interesting fit
Speaker 1: if any te team is looking for a free agent
Speaker 1: wide receiver. His skill is incredible. This is a guy
Speaker 1: that makes Blake Bortles look decent. This is a guy
Speaker 1: that made Christian Hackenberg in college look decent coming off
Speaker 1: in a c L surgery. Listen, this is a guy
Speaker 1: that was also a top five, top seven kind of
Speaker 1: wide receiver going into drafts last year or two years ago.
Speaker 1: What if he wound up in San Francisco with Jimmy
Speaker 1: g Q. What if he wound up in Oakland replacing
Speaker 1: a guy like Michael Crabtree. What if you wound up
Speaker 1: as the one wide receiver, the outside wide receiver in
Speaker 1: a place like Baltimore with Macklin then moving to the
Speaker 1: wide out two. I think there will be a market
Speaker 1: for a R. Fifteen. All Right, what we gotta do
Speaker 1: here is we gotta talk Florio about these kids. I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you something. These kids had a big time week.
Speaker 1: We heard from michaela the Unicorn and training. She went
Speaker 1: three and one, She had the Eagles, she had the Patriots.
Speaker 1: She had the Jaguars, which is going to be a
Speaker 1: theme around these kids. Her only loss. Checked this out, Florio.
Speaker 1: She then had had the Saints. She was one play
Speaker 1: away from going undefeated in divisional weekend. She went three
Speaker 1: and one. The Saints were are only lost. Got to
Speaker 1: give it up from Michaela going three and one. Okay,
Speaker 1: Florio probably knows on't want to us. No, Florio, I
Speaker 1: understand it's this is tough for you because your picks
Speaker 1: were the Falcons, the Pats, the Steelers, in the Saints. You,
Speaker 1: my friend went one in three, and we were talking
Speaker 1: about what happens if these kids build up a lead
Speaker 1: on you, And now on Monday, you're relatively speechless as
Speaker 1: Michaela go three in one. Goose went three and one.
Speaker 1: Her only mistake was she had the Titans. Tito went
Speaker 1: three and one. His only mistake was the Falcons. Even
Speaker 1: Zoe are fourteen month old or almost two year old kid,
Speaker 1: she went too and two having an Eagles and having
Speaker 1: the Jaguars. She went too into Florio, you uhn one
Speaker 1: in three? What happened? Yeah? I had a bad week
Speaker 1: and I tweeted you yesterday. I said that the kids
Speaker 1: are having a big game because they had the Cats,
Speaker 1: and the Cats came through for them. And and after
Speaker 1: the show, I told you, I said, the kids are
Speaker 1: gonna beat us, that the Cats win, and that's exactly
Speaker 1: what all of the kids were on the Jaguars. They
Speaker 1: felt the Cats, and as you know, the Cats came
Speaker 1: through with a forty five forty to win UM against
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steels. What we're gonna do is we're gonna further
Speaker 1: recap our picks and then I'm gonna give you my
Speaker 1: biggest takeaways from divisional weekend when we come back right
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Freestyle and the award winning Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network. Come on back and listen to what
Speaker 1: I took away from divisional weekend. Uh Speeds is fitting
Speaker 1: statistician gives his spotlight on divisional weekend and what you
Speaker 1: can learn moving forward when we come back here. It
Speaker 1: is the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Great Yo Network.

Speaker 1: You got speedy spitting statistician for this hour on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle. Florio giving me those biggie tracks because we're
Speaker 1: coming back here. Bob in your head, because the neck
Speaker 1: knows what's up. It is the hashtag stats over beat Cipher.
Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you something. I got mad love
Speaker 1: for the stats overbeat Cipher. Mad people hit me up
Speaker 1: on Twitter. Right as Stefon Diggs play happened. Everybody remembering that,
Speaker 1: you know, we have been on digs all season long. Stephen,
Speaker 1: can you digs? It certainly came through for his team
Speaker 1: on the last play of the game. Uh. I was
Speaker 1: talking with this about with Florio about this. Not only
Speaker 1: does Digs make the catch, but then he has the
Speaker 1: presence of mind to not just go out of bounds,
Speaker 1: which has gotta be what you were told in that huddle.
Speaker 1: If you make the catch, go out of bounds, try
Speaker 1: and save yourself for a potential game winning field goal.
Speaker 1: But he saw that because Williams, you know, kind of
Speaker 1: flew by and was out there. There was no one
Speaker 1: in back of him and he could go all the way.
Speaker 1: Big shout out to the hashtag stats over beat cipher Lantern.
Speaker 1: Hit me up, Jilly Dilley, hit me up. Maria Marino,
Speaker 1: First Team All Lit with the shoulder shimmy. She hit
Speaker 1: me up a lot of people knowing that, Uh, I
Speaker 1: was probably happy seeing Stephon. Can you digs it do big,
Speaker 1: big things for the Minnesota Vikings. Also check this out,
Speaker 1: Jilly Dilley. UM props to you because on Friday, I
Speaker 1: literally said that the Titans Patriots game was going to
Speaker 1: be potentially a thirty five fourteen final. Your boys, speedies
Speaker 1: nailed it cold. And I gotta say this, as we
Speaker 1: said that the kids went three and one, Florio went
Speaker 1: only one in three. I went two and two. But
Speaker 1: I will say this if you listen to my picks
Speaker 1: on Friday against the spread, I actually went four and oh.
Speaker 1: I told you that the Eagles, because I love the
Speaker 1: home Dogs, they would win it out right, and they did.
Speaker 1: I told you that the Patriots, that I would lay
Speaker 1: the points with the Patriots, that they would win by
Speaker 1: a lot above the thirteen and a half point spread,
Speaker 1: and they did. I said that I thought the Steelers
Speaker 1: would win the game but not cover, so against the spread,
Speaker 1: I picked the Jacksonville Jaguars, which was correct. And I
Speaker 1: also said that I had the New Orleans Saints. And
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you something. There was sports books that
Speaker 1: were a blaze on Sunday because you gotta think that
Speaker 1: listen people had people got the line Minnesota minus five
Speaker 1: and it up being a five point win. You know
Speaker 1: it was final, but check this out. They were saying.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw this. At the end
Speaker 1: of the game, they were like, we have to kick
Speaker 1: the extra point that would have made it a six
Speaker 1: point victory. You know, this line closed at five and
Speaker 1: a half. So their decision after the games to go
Speaker 1: on and kneel down instead of just kicked the extra point,
Speaker 1: that is what changed it for a lot of people.
Speaker 1: Hashtag game of inches. The other thing I want to
Speaker 1: say here what we're talking about the hashtag stats overbeat
Speaker 1: cipher because we saw a new uh dilly dilly commercials
Speaker 1: the bud Light ones, right, He's turning everything into bud Light.
Speaker 1: Is gonna turn the King himself into bud Light. Doesn't
Speaker 1: do that? Okay, I like that one. I still like
Speaker 1: to pit a misery one the best. But we gotta
Speaker 1: get something big time. There's only gonna be you know,
Speaker 1: next week and then the super Bowl. I guarrant diam
Speaker 1: t you that this will be the first commercial after
Speaker 1: the kickoff of the super Bowl will be like the
Speaker 1: culmination dilly dilly commercial. So I am looking forward to that.
Speaker 1: But check this out, all right, So Mikaela goes three
Speaker 1: and one, Goose goes three and one, Tito goes three
Speaker 1: and one, Zoe goes two and two, all ahead of
Speaker 1: Mike Florio, the expert journalist, Mike Florio, who goes one
Speaker 1: and three. Your boys speeds went two and two. But
Speaker 1: if you add that to my three and one from
Speaker 1: wild Card weekend, I am now five and three on
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Ventra our Boy, the analyst. He went three
Speaker 1: and one. His only loss was the Falcons. He had Falcons, Pats, Jaguars,
Speaker 1: and Vikings. Put that with his two into two and
Speaker 1: two record for wild Card weekend, he is also five
Speaker 1: and three along with me, we may have some new
Speaker 1: kids in the cipher for an f C and NFC
Speaker 1: championship game in Florio. We gotta get your pixie if
Speaker 1: you could rebound make it to five hundred. Let me
Speaker 1: tell you what I thought about this. First of all,
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles. I told you about the home dogs. Okay,
Speaker 1: that is a trend we have been playing, and I
Speaker 1: told you that this defense was gonna be serious. That's
Speaker 1: what I liked about the Philadelphia Eagles. Anyway. Obviously there's
Speaker 1: once and is m v P caliber, you know, twelve
Speaker 1: or thirteen games. But here's what I thought was very important.
Speaker 1: Davante Freeman ten carries for seven yards. Remember how I said, Oh,
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons didn't go away from what got them there,
Speaker 1: and they had all these thirty two attempts against the Rams,
Speaker 1: they were not able to do that against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 1: I thought that was huge. And I really think listen,
Speaker 1: this home dog thing. It matters. Okay. You take a
Speaker 1: dome team, you put them in a thirty five degree stadium,
Speaker 1: and that crowd was hyped, big fourth down plays, change
Speaker 1: over of possessions, They were getting it going. You saw
Speaker 1: the same thing in Minnesota with the skull. This matters, Okay?
Speaker 1: Does it matter enough for me to once again pick
Speaker 1: the Eagles as home dogs against the Vikings this week?
Speaker 1: Tune in later on in the week to find out.
Speaker 1: And also, I gotta say this, people are critiquing the
Speaker 1: play call for this last play for the Falcons. No, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: the play call was fine. You know who wasn't Julio
Speaker 1: Jones who defecated the mattress not once, but twice ice
Speaker 1: on that play, slipping and falling out of his break.
Speaker 1: By the way, that's something that happens when a Dome
Speaker 1: team plays outside on grass. This is what happens. And
Speaker 1: then enough for nothing, Mattie Ice put the ball right
Speaker 1: where Julio Jones needed it and it went right through
Speaker 1: Julio Jones hands. Now, I know he landed out of bounds,
Speaker 1: but you gotta figure if he makes that catch, maybe
Speaker 1: he can get both feet in. That's the Santonio almost
Speaker 1: play in the Super Bowl. Julio, you gotta come up
Speaker 1: with that, in my opinion. Our next game was in
Speaker 1: New England, you know, thirty five seventeen. Shout out to
Speaker 1: Jilly Dilley who saw that I nailed the score of
Speaker 1: this game cold. And let me tell you something. People
Speaker 1: are gonna laugh at me, but there was a huge play.
Speaker 1: Like mid second quarter, it is fourteen seven, and it's
Speaker 1: kind of back and forth game. I even had one
Speaker 1: of my boys out there in California text me like, Yo,
Speaker 1: Tennessee is gonna win this game. They were hanging with them.
Speaker 1: It was a huge play the eagle. The Pats were
Speaker 1: punting it unlike their own ten or fifteen yard line,
Speaker 1: and it was a fourteen seven game. Tennessee was gonna
Speaker 1: get the ball back with good field position, and Tennessee
Speaker 1: had a crazy penalty giving New England the first down.
Speaker 1: They then go ahead and drive go up seven, and
Speaker 1: at that point it was lights out for the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 1: And apparently from the Larkey's coaching career in Tennessee as well,
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you something, this running back heard that
Speaker 1: I talked about in New England was definitely in play.
Speaker 1: A lot of people were on myself, included was on
Speaker 1: Dion Lewis and Deon Lewis had a nice game. Fifteen
Speaker 1: carries for sixty nine yards, caught nine balls for another
Speaker 1: seventy nine yards. All right, my man had over a
Speaker 1: hundred and forty combined scrimmage yards, so you on it.
Speaker 1: But he got vultured not once, not twice, but three times.
Speaker 1: James White two touchdowns, Brandon Bolden a touchdown. Now, with
Speaker 1: Rex Burkehead maybe being healthy for the a f C
Speaker 1: Championship game, I would stay away from these Patriots. Running
Speaker 1: back to the herd is real. Okay. And here's the
Speaker 1: other thing, uh Conklin went out in that game, and
Speaker 1: right about the same time this kind of pendulum swinging
Speaker 1: play I was telling you about that penalty, Mariota got
Speaker 1: sacked eight times. We've been talking about offensive line play
Speaker 1: all season long. When you're all pro left tackle or
Speaker 1: tackle goes down, it is not going to be helpful.
Speaker 1: As I mentioned, Also, we had a Corey Davis siting
Speaker 1: a little bit late first stats over beat cipher Fans
Speaker 1: MC Cory Davis five catches, sixty three yards and two touchdowns,
Speaker 1: including the first one which was evidence of his incredible skill.
Speaker 1: Maybe with a new head coach, maybe with a new scheme,
Speaker 1: but they're not playing exotic smash mouth. Corey Davis could
Speaker 1: be in line for a big sophomore season. And then
Speaker 1: we gotta talk about this Jaguars WINT two. I gotta
Speaker 1: tell you something. They punched the Steelers in the mouth.
Speaker 1: They had three rushing touchdowns in the first like nineteen
Speaker 1: minutes of play. This to be quite honest, and I
Speaker 1: don't I hate saying it this way. This is where
Speaker 1: the Steelers missed a guy like Ryan shays Ere they're
Speaker 1: linebacker who can go sidelines, sideline. This is where you
Speaker 1: missed the guy like that. Okay, But honestly, some of
Speaker 1: the page, some of the Steelers calls here made no
Speaker 1: sense to me. On fourth down, why are they running
Speaker 1: the ball out wide pitching it to Levy on Bell.
Speaker 1: I don't like that. Run the ball downhill and between
Speaker 1: the tackles with your patient, incredible running back, Levan Bell.
Speaker 1: Give Levy on Bell the ball more. In the second half.
Speaker 1: I like when they threw deep, you know, the bomb
Speaker 1: tomorrow Davis Bryan on fourth down. A lot of production
Speaker 1: they had on fourth down, big Ben putting up video
Speaker 1: game numbers. I like that, but why are they not
Speaker 1: getting Levan Bell the ball more in the second half?
Speaker 1: And here's the other thing, what what are they doing
Speaker 1: in the game situations? Why are they kicking an onside
Speaker 1: kick instead of kicking deep when they get within a
Speaker 1: touchdown when they have two time outs and the two
Speaker 1: minute warning, they held them and we're able to drive
Speaker 1: down for the touchdown. And if you kick that ball deep,
Speaker 1: they could have tied that game. Why are they not
Speaker 1: calling time out in uh in like the last minute either?
Speaker 1: Poor clock management, poor game management? In my opinion, when
Speaker 1: it related to the Pittsburgh Steelers, I will say this,
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournett is a perfect fit for that team, running
Speaker 1: and defense. It travels. It worked for the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 1: It's worked for the Tampa Bay Bucks in Super Bowl
Speaker 1: runs before. Might it worked for the Jacksonville Jaguars. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, this defense, it's really otherworldly. Will
Speaker 1: they be able to do what they did against New England?
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure. But here's the thing. They scored
Speaker 1: forty five points. Granted they got a defensive touchdown, but
Speaker 1: their offense scored thirty eight points against the Pittsburgh defense
Speaker 1: that was top five in the NFL. Pittsburgh defense with
Speaker 1: the most sacks in the NFL. Is Blake Bortles putting
Speaker 1: it all in our I I'm not so sure. I
Speaker 1: think it was really more Leonard Fournett, to be quite honest.
Speaker 1: And here's the thing. Leonard Fournette is always banged up.
Speaker 1: He missed most of the second quarter, came back. But
Speaker 1: can you rely on Leonard four Nette? That's what it
Speaker 1: really comes down to. For me, That's what gives me
Speaker 1: cause for pause. That And of course they're going up
Speaker 1: to New England. I don't know if they can have
Speaker 1: a you know, I think style makes fight and it
Speaker 1: makes it better, right because I think New England knows
Speaker 1: how to handle Pittsburgh and Jacksonville is a different kind
Speaker 1: of challenge. They will get pressure on Tom Brady. What
Speaker 1: if they hit him? What if they send them to
Speaker 1: the cold, dark, quiet room. He won't go. We'll just
Speaker 1: go to the tent and have an eye injury. But whatever,
Speaker 1: we shall see. But we'll chop it up about that
Speaker 1: all week long here on the Fantasy Freestyle. When we
Speaker 1: come back, here's we're gonna do. I'm gonna talk a
Speaker 1: little bit more about this Vikings Saints game. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you about my other biggest overall takeaway of divisional weekend.
Speaker 1: And then, guys, I gotta tell you also, the Major
Speaker 1: League Baseball hot stove has been cold as ice, but
Speaker 1: it is heating up in the last week. We're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about that a little while as well. Maybe get
Speaker 1: a call from the hashtag stats over beat cipher. I
Speaker 1: wants to talk major League Baseball, but maybe it doesn't
Speaker 1: matter because maybe there's a new sport that people care
Speaker 1: more about then baseball. We'll talk about that a little
Speaker 1: bit more as well, your boy Dame Martinez right here
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Freestyle and the award winning Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: radio network on a holiday Monday. Come all right back,

Speaker 1: more no toriri is b I g on the Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: You know ada since the public school era, bathroom passes,
Speaker 1: cutting classes, squeeze and asses smoking was a dailor routine
Speaker 1: since thirteen Shelby on the scene. I used to have
Speaker 1: to pick a tray. Who does him by? Bubble Goose?
Speaker 1: What early biggie? Yo, Early Biggie, Mike Florio, you need
Speaker 1: to learn up on something early biggie. They call that
Speaker 1: one party and b s. You need to check that
Speaker 1: one out right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle, your boy speeds spitting statistiction. I gotta tell
Speaker 1: you something about this Missnesota New Orleans game, because here's
Speaker 1: the thing. I had people hit me up. My Super
Speaker 1: Bowl pick went down the drain this weekend. I was
Speaker 1: on the Pittsburgh Steelers and I was on the New
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints, and my thesis was that I trust Drew
Speaker 1: Brees in the NFC over any of these other quarterbacks
Speaker 1: of the top seeds, over Nick Foles, over Case Keenom,
Speaker 1: over Jared Goff who already had his exit. And I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you something, Kingdom didn't look amazing in that game,
Speaker 1: and in the second half, Drew Brees certainly did did.
Speaker 1: Drew Brees was throwing dimes, did you need that fourth
Speaker 1: down throw to Willie's need to keep their season alive?
Speaker 1: Throws to Michael Thomas left and right. Drew Brees was
Speaker 1: outperforming Case Keenom, and my narrative, my angle was holding
Speaker 1: true until Stefon Diggs changed all of that. But I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you something. I love this Minnesota team. I
Speaker 1: love this Minnesota defense. They did get banged up, I think,
Speaker 1: and said Dajo went out with a head injury in
Speaker 1: this one, but listen, Minnesota's very well rounded. You gotta
Speaker 1: love their defense, even on the road against Nick Foles
Speaker 1: and the Philadelphia Eagles. Right now, the Philadelphia Eagles are
Speaker 1: home dogs for three and a half points against the
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. I like Minnesota a lot. Our
Speaker 1: guy Tony Sencada said that, you know, the Minnesota Vikings
Speaker 1: might be hosting the Super Bowl. They are only one
Speaker 1: game away against the back up quarterback for that to happen.
Speaker 1: I love their defense. I think it travels. I think
Speaker 1: feeling and digs. Don't forget about Kyle Rudolph as an option,
Speaker 1: and they're two headed monster there. You know you got
Speaker 1: lab Mary, you got Jack McKinnon. Imagine if this teams
Speaker 1: still had Dalvin Cook. And I also mentioned listen that
Speaker 1: five and a half point spread. If you had the Saints,
Speaker 1: you still won because they did not cover because they
Speaker 1: decided to kneel down after that play. Hashtag game of inches.
Speaker 1: But Florio, let me ask you this real quick. My
Speaker 1: biggest takeaway of the league, and I alluded to it
Speaker 1: before when we talk about what was like the experienced
Speaker 1: quarterbacks against like these inexperienced quarterbacks. Listen, we had Tom Brady,
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlisberger, and Drew Brees and only one
Speaker 1: of them wound up advancing. My thesis has always been,
Speaker 1: if you show me a top ten quarterback, you know
Speaker 1: quarterback that can win, I will take those guys against
Speaker 1: the field right now in the NFL playoffs. But that
Speaker 1: is not what happened. It was right when I said
Speaker 1: that that Maddie Ice and Matt Ryan would beat Golf
Speaker 1: in the wild card weekend, I thought this was my
Speaker 1: ticket for Drew Brees getting to the super Bowl. I
Speaker 1: still think the thesis kind of worked until one of
Speaker 1: the craziest plays in NFL history. But check how that
Speaker 1: sits sets up for Tom Brady. He had to face
Speaker 1: Tennessee and Marcus Mariota in the division round. And remember
Speaker 1: last week when he last year year when he got
Speaker 1: brock Off Swidler in the division round instead of facing
Speaker 1: maybe a hot Derek Carr in the Oakland Raiders after
Speaker 1: that broken leg. But then he's gonna get Blake Bortles
Speaker 1: in the a f C Championship Game instead of saying
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer Big Ben Roethlisberger. And then in the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, if it goes that way, he's gonna face
Speaker 1: either Nick Fools or case Keenum and get to avoid
Speaker 1: say Drew Brees, gets to avoid say Cam Newton gets
Speaker 1: to avoid say Maddie Ice. This sets up for Tom
Speaker 1: Brady and the New England Patriots. Once again, everything falls
Speaker 1: the Patriots way, whether it be Kelvin Benjamin you know
Speaker 1: overturned calls. Either it be all the quarterbacks that could
Speaker 1: do work against the Patriots falling down one by one,
Speaker 1: and they get a pathfull of junior varsity squads all
Speaker 1: the way to Super Bowl fifty two. It's absolutely ridiculous
Speaker 1: for you. Go ahead, Oh, I was gonna saying. You
Speaker 1: could say they get junior varsity quarterbacks maybe to go
Speaker 1: up against, but not squads like these are defenses that
Speaker 1: have already held other tough shuterbacks in check. So maybe
Speaker 1: Brady is the next one. So let me ask you this,
Speaker 1: And here's where it comes down. This is kind of
Speaker 1: the question. And tell Danny, I want to maybe if
Speaker 1: we get some conversation about this in the chat as well,
Speaker 1: do you still need a franchise quarterback in order to
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl? Look? Look, the Jacksonville Jaguars are
Speaker 1: doing it with running in defense, the Minnesota Vikings and
Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer has implemented his scheme, got his guys to
Speaker 1: play that defense. The Philadelphia Eagles, they won that game
Speaker 1: on the strength of their defense and their defensive philosophy
Speaker 1: about having eight strong defensive lineman that they could rotate
Speaker 1: in and be fresh, like, maybe defense wins championships. I
Speaker 1: used to think you needed the you know, the difference
Speaker 1: maker at quarterback. I still believe in the NFL in
Speaker 1: two thousand, seventeen or eighteen, you need the quarterback who
Speaker 1: can get at the line and go kill kill, kill,
Speaker 1: and make the play and read the mail. I still
Speaker 1: think that's what you need. But um, these defenses beat
Speaker 1: these elite or established quarterbacks this week. I mean, if
Speaker 1: I gave you Florio for two eighteen, if I gave
Speaker 1: you your pick of say like five quarterbacks you know
Speaker 1: Brady and and Aaron Rodgers and Big Band and like
Speaker 1: you know stud quarterbacks, or I gave you the top
Speaker 1: five NFL defenses, where would you go. I'm still gonna
Speaker 1: take the quarterback. I still think it is a quarterback
Speaker 1: driven league. But I think if we're realizing that it
Speaker 1: is harder and harder to find these quarterbacks and the
Speaker 1: top picks aren't really working out as we have envisioned.
Speaker 1: So you either need a top quarterback or you need
Speaker 1: an elite defense with weapons around an average quarterback. I
Speaker 1: think the other way is like look at look at
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan and the Falcons last year. Okay, you will
Speaker 1: make a great point that it's hard to find these quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: But you get the quarterbacks not in their first three years.
Speaker 1: You get the quarterbacks going into kind of like you
Speaker 1: know ages, uh, you know, thirty one right when they
Speaker 1: still have all their athletic gifts, but they know the
Speaker 1: NFL and play seechemes and defenses and personnel well enough
Speaker 1: that they can kind of move the pieces of the
Speaker 1: chessboard around. So you've got guys like maybe the Matt
Speaker 1: Ryan as well. You know, I'm very interested to see
Speaker 1: that kind of crop of quarterbacks, the Matt Ryan's, the
Speaker 1: Matthew Staffords them, the Kirk Cousins, the people you know
Speaker 1: still Aaron Rodgers as well, people in that age group
Speaker 1: to kind of see. So I do think it is interesting.
Speaker 1: But we will be talking about my confidence in the offenses,
Speaker 1: the defenses, and the coaching staffs for Championship weekend throughout
Speaker 1: the week. I do want to say this though, as
Speaker 1: we keep on talking here on the Fantasy Freestyle, one
Speaker 1: of the things we're gonna start doing is also, you know,
Speaker 1: we're gonna get baseball into the conversation. We o here
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, a lot of people
Speaker 1: will be playing fantasy baseball. Last year, right after the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I started giving you my team by team previews,
Speaker 1: and if you listen to those, you heard my pick
Speaker 1: was in the Houston Astros to win the A L.
Speaker 1: How about that? My pick was Corey Kluber to win
Speaker 1: this I Young, how about that? My pick was jose L.
Speaker 1: Tuvey to win the A L m v P. How
Speaker 1: about that? Right? So you can get a lot of
Speaker 1: information data help you win a little bit of cash.
Speaker 1: But listen, a lot of people have said, floor, you
Speaker 1: know that the hot stove has been really cold this year,
Speaker 1: and there's a number of reasons why. Potentially the two
Speaker 1: thousand eighteen free agent class potentially there's one nine cap,
Speaker 1: you know, Potentially Scott boris holding all the cards, you know.
Speaker 1: But there have been some trades and and and in
Speaker 1: the last week. Listen, Garrett Cole going to Houston. Um,
Speaker 1: we have Andrew McCutchen today. If you haven't heard, Andrew
Speaker 1: McCutchen has been traded to the San Francisco Giants. The
Speaker 1: Giants are trying to be in on Stanton as well.
Speaker 1: Stand to the Yanks, the fire stale in with the
Speaker 1: Marlins and Derek Jeter continued, Marcelo Zuna to the st
Speaker 1: Louis Cardinals. We're starting to see some arbitration things like
Speaker 1: Machado and Donaldson. I think we're gonna see some other
Speaker 1: Domino's fall. Okay, so we're gonna talk about why it's
Speaker 1: been cold in the hot stove of this year. We're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about what can still happen and how that impacts,
Speaker 1: you know, some people like let's say Johns Jonaldson does
Speaker 1: move to the Cardinals. Let's say Brad Hand does wind
Speaker 1: up with the Houston Astros to give them a lefty
Speaker 1: out of the pen. Let's say you know these Royals,
Speaker 1: you know, Lorenzo Caine, Hosmer mustok is still up there
Speaker 1: for grab some relievers out there as well. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about that before. But the thing is, honestly, Florial,
Speaker 1: I can't make rankings yet. I don't know about you know,
Speaker 1: where people are gonna land. You gotta see the full
Speaker 1: composition of an offense to know, you know, if McCutcheon
Speaker 1: is gonna be hitting three in this offense, who's with them?
Speaker 1: You know? So it's hard to do rankings. But I
Speaker 1: will do rankings, and I will start doing team by
Speaker 1: team previews. But listen, we had Andrew McCutcheon, five time
Speaker 1: All Star traded to the San Francisco Giants. Today, I
Speaker 1: think they're might be movement on some other guys. Michael
Speaker 1: Fulmer comes to mind, har Wish comes to mind. So
Speaker 1: we'll keep you you abreast of everything here on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle. But I did want to mention this, Floria,
Speaker 1: did you know? Check this out the Gallop Pole. They
Speaker 1: do this poll, you know, well respected polling company. Ever
Speaker 1: since seven they have asked Americans what is your favorite
Speaker 1: sport to watch? Florio, what do you think was the
Speaker 1: number one sport? Football? Absolutely correct? However, football has gone
Speaker 1: down six percentage points in the last ten years. Thirty
Speaker 1: seven percent of people say that football is their favorite
Speaker 1: sports to watch, down though from at a tight about
Speaker 1: ten years ago. Here's the interesting one, though, Florio, who
Speaker 1: do you think was number two? Basketball? Absolutely correct? For
Speaker 1: the first time, for the first time ever, baseball has
Speaker 1: dropped out of the top two in this country. Nine
Speaker 1: percent say baseball, So I give you these baseball updates.
Speaker 1: You know, nine percent say baseball. Eleven percent say that
Speaker 1: basketball is their fay rich sport to watch. So we
Speaker 1: got thirty seven percent Football still king NBA and basketball
Speaker 1: eleven percent, and baseball now down to third in this country.
Speaker 1: I still love baseball. I love it as a background thing.
Speaker 1: I love the boys of spring, the leisurely pace. But
Speaker 1: these millennials, you know, you're swiping right, you're swiping left,
Speaker 1: you're looking for likes right away. The NBA more conduce
Speaker 1: of it is now the number two sport in the
Speaker 1: United States of America. You know what I also thought
Speaker 1: was interesting from this pole, Florio is you know, got
Speaker 1: football one, basketball to a baseball three at nine percent.
Speaker 1: Soccer is now number four. Check this out at seven percent,
Speaker 1: almost overtaking baseball as the third biggest sport in this country.
Speaker 1: They say it is the biggest share of this pole
Speaker 1: of any sport that was not football, basketball, or baseball
Speaker 1: since when NASCAR got up to seven percent. Soccer is
Speaker 1: truly on the move here in the United States of America.
Speaker 1: When we come back here though, on the Fantasy Freestyle,
Speaker 1: we're gonna check in on a different poll. I had
Speaker 1: the poll on Twitter which team was the most impressive
Speaker 1: during divisional weekend. And we also go to my boy Danny,
Speaker 1: who's been monitoring the chat down on the Fantasy Pit
Speaker 1: of misery. Want to hear what people are saying if they,
Speaker 1: you know, if they were surprised that the kids out
Speaker 1: picked Speeds and outpicked Mike Florio this weekend, all that
Speaker 1: and more when we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle
Speaker 1: right here on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network.
Speaker 1: Florio going with a little bit of jay Z instead
Speaker 1: of the big theme that we've had. But that's how
Speaker 1: my head could bounce my head, my neck knows. What's up?

Speaker 1: arrive with the stats, over beat cipher and spitting speeds,
Speaker 1: you're dead wrong. Because I am the stable genius of
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. We had a pole question
Speaker 1: up earlier today. It was who was the most impressive
Speaker 1: winner from divisional round? Are they your super Bowl favorite?
Speaker 1: If you think about it, obviously the options are the Eagles,
Speaker 1: the Pats, the Jags, and the Vikings. Those are the
Speaker 1: final four in the NFL. I was a little surprised
Speaker 1: by the response. Forty three percent of you say the
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars with the most impressed. If team listen, that
Speaker 1: defense everybody's been talking about, did give give up forty
Speaker 1: two points to the Pittsburgh Steelers. We'll see what they
Speaker 1: can do against New England. Percent say the Pats were
Speaker 1: most impressive, percent say the Vikings, seven percent say the Eagles.
Speaker 1: The Vikings listen, they were impressive at home, but they
Speaker 1: leave the friendly confines. Everyone thought that the Vikings were
Speaker 1: gonna be home field throughout the entire playoffs because they
Speaker 1: thought that the Eagles will get knocked off. But the
Speaker 1: Vikings go on the road where they are still road
Speaker 1: favorites against the Philadelphia Eagles. We will be talking about
Speaker 1: that all week long. But I want to do now
Speaker 1: is go to the hashtag stats over beat Cipher bringing
Speaker 1: our boy Danny, who was down there in the fantasy
Speaker 1: pit of misery. How's your weekend, Danny? How's it going? Man?
Speaker 1: What do people saying? What's good? Which weekend was great?
Speaker 1: It was pretty good. It was pretty good. You know.
Speaker 1: I'm still getting back, you know, from Asia, getting my
Speaker 1: time back and getting myself organized. You know, kind of
Speaker 1: really feel like now is the start of me back
Speaker 1: at the grind, you know. But a lot of football,
Speaker 1: a lot of good stuff that's good. So yeah, we
Speaker 1: are kind of all over the place. Just like its freestyle,
Speaker 1: I'm down for whatever. So strong style Ninja's been waiting
Speaker 1: in the style that is My boy was one of
Speaker 1: one of my favorites. UM Saints and Vikings game was
Speaker 1: definitely the game of the week. I can't really argue
Speaker 1: with that. No, absolutely, we were saying that was going
Speaker 1: to be the game of the week. I said that
Speaker 1: that was the one I was most looking forward to,
Speaker 1: and it you know, it was a sixty minute game,
Speaker 1: to be sure, even when they were down seventeen nothing.
Speaker 1: I thought that the Saints still had a chance. And listen,
Speaker 1: I hold true to my thesis. I'd rather have Breeze
Speaker 1: in any of these quarterbacks. It's just, you know, fate
Speaker 1: got in the way. Yeah. So we got a couple
Speaker 1: of Super Bowl predictions. We got Vikings and Jags in
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. See, I guess right now. And you know,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna review my picks a little bit later on
Speaker 1: in the week because you know, I gotta I gotta
Speaker 1: make it up against the kids, obviously, So I gotta
Speaker 1: see who the kids pick and see if I can
Speaker 1: go up. You know, outside, I think most people you know,
Speaker 1: Vikings Jags was that pick? Huh. I think the most
Speaker 1: popular pick is going to be Patriots Vikings. You know,
Speaker 1: that's what I think will be the popular The Patriots
Speaker 1: are actually nine point favorites at home. The Vikings are
Speaker 1: favorites even on the road. I think those are the favorites.
Speaker 1: I think the favorite will be Patriots Vikings with and
Speaker 1: and remember if the Vikings are at home, this is like,
Speaker 1: you know, tickets will go through the roof the price
Speaker 1: of these tickets, you know, So that's really interesting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the The other one we got was Pats and Eagles. Yeah, listen,
Speaker 1: I was big on the Eagles early. I mean I
Speaker 1: think the Patriots, you know, can the Eagles do what
Speaker 1: they will be at home? That would be the home
Speaker 1: teams getting it there. And could Nick Foles wind up
Speaker 1: going you know, will Nick Foles, Case Keenum or Blake
Speaker 1: Bortles wind up being in the Super Bowl. This is
Speaker 1: something we gotta keep an eye on. Danny. I hear
Speaker 1: that our boy Chris Ventra might be back for the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Pit of Misery tomorrow. Is that correct? I believe
Speaker 1: he will be back in tomorrow because you know, I
Speaker 1: haven't seen Chris Ventra in the Years team, and so
Speaker 1: I want to definitely chop it up with him about
Speaker 1: his picks, see how he's doing Visa VI the kids
Speaker 1: who out picked him in this weekend. And also, you
Speaker 1: know there is still some cold Beasley Levy on Bell
Speaker 1: Chris venture lyricism for us to talk about. You think
Speaker 1: maybe he's avoiding Fantasy Freestyle. I think it's definitely a possibility.
Speaker 1: And well, hopefully hopefully he comes back and and Danny
Speaker 1: will be happy to have you back a little bit
Speaker 1: later on in the week. We love how you engage
