Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: Wow, Hey everybody, It's Wednesday, November sixth, twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Show, where we're placing
Speaker 2: a temporary.
Speaker 1: Injunction on Christmas music.
Speaker 2: It's me your man, MG Marcus Grant, joined by Michael
Speaker 2: Floorio and Lakwan Jones. I don't know how you guys
Speaker 2: feel about this, Like, I'm all about celebrating the holidays
Speaker 2: in order once we get past things saving.
Speaker 1: That I'm fine with all the Christmas stuff.
Speaker 3: Uh. I get that line of thinking, and I subscribe
Speaker 3: to it. But also, Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1: Is not really a holiday.
Speaker 3: I get excited for until like a couple of days
Speaker 3: before it. Christmas, I could get excited for weeks before.
Speaker 2: I'm already thinking about my Thanksgiving. Man, you please save
Speaker 2: me from this. Laqwan listen, I'm ready with you.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 4: I actually saw Christmas lights wild trick or treating, and
Speaker 4: I thought that was pretty odd. Like what is the rush?
Speaker 4: Like we still got Thanksgiving? Like we got Grandma's food,
Speaker 4: Like I'm ready to get my plate now?
Speaker 1: What are we doing?
Speaker 5: Thanksgiving is cool day of and that's it.
Speaker 1: Though.
Speaker 2: No, I enjoyed the cooking and the preparation, the menu prep. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna demail. Let me stop in the morning,
Speaker 2: like job cool, Let me stop before I detailed this
Speaker 2: whole show. I did not mean for this to happen.
Speaker 2: We got a lot of talk about on this episode.
Speaker 2: We'll preview the week ten slate. We'll give you some
Speaker 2: fantasy hot takes as well. Let's start though with some
Speaker 2: fantasy headlines. We are now officially past the NFL trading deadline.
Speaker 1: We've talked before about some of the moves that were made.
Speaker 2: A lot of wide receivers getting traded this season, and
Speaker 2: one more, Mike Williams goes from the Jetropolitans to the
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers. In fact, Aaron Rodgers was live on with
Speaker 2: Pat McAfee when the trade was announced, and he gave
Speaker 2: a very diplomatic answer about Mike Williams.
Speaker 1: You know how much he knew about it or had
Speaker 1: to do with it?
Speaker 2: You know, I don't know, certainly, somebody knows that more
Speaker 2: than I do, but a very diplomatic answer. But now
Speaker 2: that he has moved over to Pittsburgh, Flora, what is
Speaker 2: Mike Williams value in the Pittsburgh offense?
Speaker 1: Considering he really gave us next to nothing in New York.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Mike Williams brings more upside being in
Speaker 3: this Steelers offense. It's a Steelers team that really has been.
Speaker 5: Searching for production.
Speaker 3: Opposite of George Pickens and Russell Wilson with the deep ball,
Speaker 3: maybe could get the most out of Mike Williams. But
Speaker 3: for the time being, I don't think he is anything
Speaker 3: more than just like an upside bench stash. There's no
Speaker 3: way you could start him right away. We've seen numerous
Speaker 3: wide receivers get traded on a Tuesday. The next week
Speaker 3: they play about thirty percent of the snap. So yeah,
Speaker 3: unless until Mike Evans shows signs of life that he
Speaker 3: is still the same guy post knee injury, and until
Speaker 3: we see him get consistent volume in the Steelers offense,
Speaker 3: I think he is just a bench stash right now.
Speaker 2: I know a lot of folks are saying that maybe
Speaker 2: he works well as a downfield threat for a quarterback
Speaker 2: in Russell Wilson who likes to throw up those deep shots.
Speaker 2: Maybe that feels also sort of like a really recipe
Speaker 2: for home run or strikeout if you're starting him in
Speaker 2: fantasy football on any given week.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, Lakwan the Bengals make a move.
Speaker 2: They get some running back help gett Khalil Herbert from
Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears. We went for about twenty four hours
Speaker 2: of this idea of like, Chase Brown's a league winning
Speaker 2: right knows, Zach Boss is the Chase Brown show. Here
Speaker 2: comes Khalil Herbert. So does this mean our Chase Brown
Speaker 2: RB one dreams are dead.
Speaker 4: It's a little bit humble, you know. Khlil Herbert does
Speaker 4: scare me. I mean shout out to him for finally
Speaker 4: being free, because he's one of those guys that's going
Speaker 4: to go get those yards. He's a very effective runner.
Speaker 4: I mean you look at his career yards per carry,
Speaker 4: it's above average. And you look at Clill Herbert in
Speaker 4: the time that he did spend with the Chicago Bears.
Speaker 4: He's been sprinkled in some opportunities over there, and he
Speaker 4: took advantage of every single one of them of getting
Speaker 4: positive yards. Zach Moss was not able to perform behind
Speaker 4: that Bengos O line. So therefore you get a guy
Speaker 4: that can go get you those yards, who can be
Speaker 4: very explosive. I mean, look, he had five one hundred
Speaker 4: yard games. That's more than any of the Chicago Bears
Speaker 4: had in the timeframe of twenty twenty one up until today.
Speaker 4: So we're looking at a guy that knows how to
Speaker 4: be productive on the ground. That's exactly what they're missing.
Speaker 4: No knock to Chase Brown his explosively, but man, it's
Speaker 4: going to be very difficult to understand how Khalil Herbert
Speaker 4: is going to be up there putting up the points,
Speaker 4: showing up and showing out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we're still trying to figure out what
Speaker 2: the usage is going to be here. I know Zach
Speaker 2: Taylor's tried to basically say, well, no, we like Chase Brown,
Speaker 2: We're bringing in Khalil Herbert as sort of a backup,
Speaker 2: sort of insurance. Maybe I have blinders on maybe because
Speaker 2: I drafted a lot of Chase Brown.
Speaker 1: I sort of want to take him at his word.
Speaker 2: But we know that NFL coaches aren't always the most
Speaker 2: forthcoming about how they want to use players, So why
Speaker 2: you know, just is what it is? Right, Like, I
Speaker 2: want to watch very closely. Maybe not so much this
Speaker 2: week because Herbert's just getting there, but next week kind
Speaker 2: of get a sense of how they're using him and
Speaker 2: what this means for Chase Brown. But I'm choosing to
Speaker 2: hold out hope and continue to believe in Chase Brown.
Speaker 2: All right, time to take a look at the Week
Speaker 2: ten slates some of the more fantasy relevant games. We
Speaker 2: have four teams on a by the Browns, the Packers,
Speaker 2: the Raiders, and the Seahawks all on a bye this week.
Speaker 2: So you know, at least a couple of quarterbacks with
Speaker 2: Gino Smith and Jordan love As you're not going to have.
Speaker 2: You know you're not gonna have a tight end in
Speaker 2: brock Bauers. So some notable players missing this week. Let's
Speaker 2: start with Thursday night football. You can see that at
Speaker 2: eight to fifteen Eastern on Amazon Prime Video, the Bengals
Speaker 2: at the Ravens. Florio, you rightly starts to column every
Speaker 2: single week. Who aren't you starting in this game?
Speaker 5: Let's see starting both quarterbacks?
Speaker 3: Yep, starting, Henry starting, Chase Brown, starting Chase starting to
Speaker 3: say Flowers, I'm sitting Deonte Johnson. Okay, I'm starting Mark Andrews.
Speaker 3: I would it's over for I likely here sitting him.
Speaker 5: Mike Oseeki.
Speaker 3: If T Higgins is out, T Higgins if he plays,
Speaker 3: and that's kind of it.
Speaker 5: I think this is going to be a very high
Speaker 5: scoring game.
Speaker 3: You would sit the defenses too, because I don't want
Speaker 3: to play either defense against these offenses. The Joe Burrow
Speaker 3: and the Bengals have had a lot of success Jamar Chase,
Speaker 3: especially again this Ravens defense.
Speaker 5: And that's back when they were good. They are not
Speaker 5: good this year.
Speaker 3: So I think the Bengals are gonna put up a
Speaker 3: lot of points and the Ravens with Lamar are always
Speaker 3: going to feast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're always going to be interesting.
Speaker 2: Obviously, games in the AFC North tend to be rock fights,
Speaker 2: but this one could be more of an entertaining back
Speaker 2: and forth kind of rock fight, if such a thing
Speaker 2: actually exists. But yeah, it's hard to find anybody that
Speaker 2: you're getting away from in this game because.
Speaker 1: Both these defenses have struggled. Both these offenses have been
Speaker 1: very productive this year.
Speaker 2: Turned into a lot of the other games heading over
Speaker 2: the weekend. On the Week ten Slate, Broncos at the
Speaker 2: Chiefs lak Well in this game actually has a lot
Speaker 2: more intrigue now than I would have thought at the
Speaker 2: beginning of the season because the Broncos are playing well.
Speaker 2: The Chiefs remained undefeated while on Thursday night. It feels
Speaker 2: like you're starting everybody in this game between Denver and
Speaker 2: Kansas City. Is there anybody you can start? Confidently?
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be starting Javonte Williams because we already know
Speaker 4: about the Chiefs history when it comes to running backs
Speaker 4: on the ground, they shut him down. But I like
Speaker 4: Courtland Sun think that he's going to be able to
Speaker 4: get loose and the connection with him and bo Nicks
Speaker 4: just keeps increasing. The chemistry just keeps getting better each
Speaker 4: and every week. Like we see these guys throwing passes
Speaker 4: to each other. Literally bo Nicks caught a touchdown last week,
Speaker 4: like wow, Like here we are, like the Denver Broncos
Speaker 4: are fun to watch again. And this is division match.
Speaker 4: This is where things get weird, so you kind of
Speaker 4: have to throw away everything that happened to prior weeks
Speaker 4: with other teams outside of the division because these teams
Speaker 4: play twice a year every year, and this is where
Speaker 4: things get wild and wacky, and look, bo Knicks might
Speaker 4: pull one out of the pocket.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 4: I'm really going to be watching this game closely to
Speaker 4: see the development of bow Knicks building his confidence every
Speaker 4: single week.
Speaker 2: This is going to be kind of a test for Bonnicks, right,
Speaker 2: I mean, we sort of like what he does in
Speaker 2: terms of running the football. He's just good enough as
Speaker 2: a passer, but this is maybe the biggest test he's
Speaker 2: facing defensively so far this season. So I think we'll
Speaker 2: get a better sense of, you know, what we feel
Speaker 2: about him going forward. You know, I saw a lot
Speaker 2: of people saying that maybe bo Nicks is closer to
Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels right now than Caleb Williams is Look at the.
Speaker 5: Moment, let's start Drake may in there as well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, at the moment, it's really hard to
Speaker 2: argue against those guys. But we got a feeling. I
Speaker 2: think we'll get a better feeling for BONNICKX after this
Speaker 2: one is over. Forty nine ers at the Buccaneers and
Speaker 2: everybody's looking at Christian McCaffrey coming back, and that's a
Speaker 2: big story. I think we've all sort of agreed, Yeah,
Speaker 2: you're starting to CMC. It's Christian McCaffrey. You've waited this long.
Speaker 2: You're absolutely starting him. But on the other side, Baker
Speaker 2: Mayfield had a really good season both in real football
Speaker 2: and fantasy football. Do you start him or do you
Speaker 2: sit him? Against the forty nine or defense. I think
Speaker 2: you start him.
Speaker 3: Like I was asked yesterday, is Baker Mayfield matchup proof?
Speaker 5: And it's really hard.
Speaker 1: To say no. At this point.
Speaker 3: From Week four on, he has scored twenty two or
Speaker 3: more Fantasy points in every game but one. That one
Speaker 3: was this past week against the Chiefs. The Chiefs up
Speaker 3: until this point had not allowed eighteen fantasy points to
Speaker 3: any quarterback since Week one, when Lamar Jackson struggled as
Speaker 3: a passer but ran all over them.
Speaker 5: And then Baker goes out and drops.
Speaker 3: Eighteen throws multiple passing to like he has done in
Speaker 3: all but two games this season. No, and that's with
Speaker 3: no Godwin or Mike Evans. Like Baker's season is going
Speaker 3: very under the radar. Shout out to Liam Cohne, who's
Speaker 3: just like, all right, you're gonna take away Godwin and
Speaker 3: Mike Evans for us. We're gonna take Kate out and
Speaker 3: to make him prime Rob Gonkrauski.
Speaker 5: But it is working. So even in this tough matchup,
Speaker 5: I don't see how you get away from Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 2: I mean it is really hard. I mean they did
Speaker 2: it last week. No Godwin, no Evans, No Jalen McMillan
Speaker 2: last week, and he still found a way to go
Speaker 2: out and produce. Uh, maybe he does throw a pick
Speaker 2: or two, but I think the volume is gonna carry
Speaker 2: the day for Baker Mayfield against the forty nine ers
Speaker 2: Steelers at the Commanders in a game between two teams
Speaker 2: sitting at the top of their respective divisions, kind of
Speaker 2: a surprise at this point in the season, Lakwan. So
Speaker 2: far this year we have been picking on the Commander's defense.
Speaker 2: It has been like, hey, they're playing the Commanders, Like
Speaker 2: start your quarterbacks and your wide receivers.
Speaker 1: But like, maybe we shouldn't.
Speaker 2: I mean, is it time to stop picking on the
Speaker 2: Commander's defense because if you go back and look, they
Speaker 2: actually been okay recently.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're standing up to all the bullies out there
Speaker 4: picking on them because honestly, the Commanders have been phenomenal
Speaker 4: at home. This is especially an area you don't want
Speaker 4: to mess with them at They're allowing the third fewest
Speaker 4: points per games, thirteen points per game at home. Right
Speaker 4: now on the defense with the Commanders, and they went
Speaker 4: out and made a blockbuster trade to get another corner
Speaker 4: in Lattimore, which is going to strengthen that defense and
Speaker 4: that secondary where we were able early in the season
Speaker 4: to pick on that secondary, but now they're getting sack production,
Speaker 4: they're getting pressures, and they're getting takeaways. Like this defense
Speaker 4: is looking like a top ten defense once it's all
Speaker 4: said and done. So the Steelers, they're going to have
Speaker 4: some you know, some challenging efforts out there with Pickings
Speaker 4: and Russell Wilson. So yeah, we need to pump the
Speaker 4: brakes on the Commander jokes because they're no longer the
Speaker 4: joke of the NFL.
Speaker 2: I mean, look, dan Quinn's got these guys playing really
Speaker 2: well and make matters worse or better, I guess, depending
Speaker 2: on your your perspective. Marshaun Lattimore is now coming to
Speaker 2: Washington as well, so that's another guy to put in
Speaker 2: that secondary to make things a little bit tougher for
Speaker 2: opposing offenses facing the Washington Commanders. Time to talk about
Speaker 2: some sleepers for the week, LQ, who you got, Well.
Speaker 4: I got a strawberry for this guy right here, because
Speaker 4: we have a great matchup. John new Smith is my
Speaker 4: sleeper this week with one of the best matchups he's
Speaker 4: probably gonna have this season against the Rams because we
Speaker 4: already know how bad my rams are defending the tight ends.
Speaker 4: They are allowing the second fewest, I mean, the second
Speaker 4: most fantasy points per game, two tight ends at the position,
Speaker 4: and John Smith in the last three games. I understand
Speaker 4: two of just getting back, but twelve fantasy points per game,
Speaker 4: twenty one percent target share in the last three games.
Speaker 4: You're looking at Johnny Smith as one of the biggest
Speaker 4: sleepers this week against my rams.
Speaker 5: I do have to call him out.
Speaker 3: He said Buffalo is the worst city in the world,
Speaker 3: and their wings weren't any good. And then he went
Speaker 3: there and he held a huge l Go ahead, talk
Speaker 3: your trash for Ario.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, it is what it is.
Speaker 5: Right, wings like who doesn't like wings?
Speaker 1: Who doesn't like wings? Don't? I don't know, man, I
Speaker 1: don't get it.
Speaker 4: I like strawberries.
Speaker 1: That look at that. I love that We've we've opened
Speaker 1: up his horizons to the world. Two months ago he
Speaker 1: had never eaten one. He just pulls them out of
Speaker 1: his pocket.
Speaker 2: Now he's like a fiend and everything for strawberries. That's wild. Also, yeah,
Speaker 2: don't carry produce around in your pocket. That's just like
Speaker 2: a rule, especially kids, man. Smack of and you know, it.
Speaker 2: Don't carry produce in your pocket. That's the thing for all,
Speaker 2: for everybody. It's gross.
Speaker 5: I never thought I'd have to pull pocket lint off
Speaker 5: of my fruit.
Speaker 1: Who is a sleeper for you? This week?
Speaker 3: I'm going with Xavier Leaguet, who does not eat vegetables,
Speaker 3: so maybe we have to introduce him to uh, strawberries
Speaker 3: and stuff like that. But in the last two games
Speaker 3: with Bryce Young, Legett has been around thirteen Fantasy points
Speaker 3: and scored a touchdown in two straight. Not only that,
Speaker 3: if you watched last week, Bryce Young played a lot
Speaker 3: better than the stats show. There was a pass that
Speaker 3: was a dime down the sideline to xavierly Get and
Speaker 3: it ended up being an interception because the dB with
Speaker 3: one hand just ripped.
Speaker 1: It away from him.
Speaker 3: Learning moment for the rookie wide receiver. But with Young
Speaker 3: playing better, with we Get playing better, and now there's
Speaker 3: being a ton of volume up for grabs there, I
Speaker 3: think he is in play, especially because he runs about
Speaker 3: seventy percent of his routes out wide. No team has
Speaker 3: allowed a higher passer rating on targets out wide receivers
Speaker 3: than the Giants.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I xilarly Get really is the guy. Sort of
Speaker 2: the next man up. I would say, if you want
Speaker 2: a super deep sleeper, I still like Jalen Coker, but
Speaker 2: Leaguet seems like the guy who was working into the
Speaker 2: wide receiver one spot in the Carolina offense. And it
Speaker 2: is nice and you pointed this out earlier in the week,
Speaker 2: Lakwan Bryce Hung playing better. It hasn't necessarily translated to
Speaker 2: a ton of yards or fantasy points, but it is
Speaker 2: a reason to sort of be optimistic about the direction
Speaker 2: of the Carolina Panthers offense. For me, going with DeAndre
Speaker 2: Swift this week for the Chicago Bears. Once upon a time,
Speaker 2: we thought maybe this was going to be kind of
Speaker 2: a split backfield, that we'd see some more Rashawn Johnson,
Speaker 2: but Johnson hasn't really been a factor for this offense
Speaker 2: so over the last few weeks. Meanwhile, it has pretty
Speaker 2: much been the DeAndre Swift show. He has an opportunity
Speaker 2: to really go big against a Patriots run defense that
Speaker 2: has been awful this year, ranks in the bottom portion
Speaker 2: of the league in terms of stopping the run.
Speaker 1: And you've got a Bears offense right now that's scuffling
Speaker 1: a little bit.
Speaker 2: The last couple of weeks have not looked good for
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams and the passing game, so it might be
Speaker 2: wise for Shane Walder and the Bears to try and
Speaker 2: establish the run. I don't think game script's going to
Speaker 2: be an issue just because neither of these teams is
Speaker 2: going to put up a big point total. So it's
Speaker 2: not as though the Bears I expect to be in
Speaker 2: a pass heavy game script. But even if they are,
Speaker 2: de Andre Swift can't catch the football out of the backfield,
Speaker 2: but I do like his opportunity of this week against
Speaker 2: New England. All Right, we still have plenty more to
Speaker 2: do here on the show, We've got some hot stars
Speaker 2: guys we think are going to go really big for
Speaker 2: your fantasy teams in Week ten, plus a look at
Speaker 2: some more games on the Week ten slate that is
Speaker 2: coming up, and more on the NFL Fantasy at Football Show,
Speaker 2: It's time to see.
Speaker 4: Who will deliver?
Speaker 2: Presented by Uber Eats, talk about the guys we think
Speaker 2: are going to have huge weeks for your fantasy squad
Speaker 2: this week and the Lakwan. You like a guy who
Speaker 2: has had a lot of huge weeks but has another
Speaker 2: great matchup this week?
Speaker 4: Oh Yeah, he's going to be punishing another Division A
Speaker 4: Division opponent. Saquon Barkley, aka say say since he back
Speaker 4: in Philly, but he's about to go completely bonkers on
Speaker 4: this Dallas defense man. They cannot stop the run, rank
Speaker 4: thirtieth in the NFL in rushing yards per game allowed.
Speaker 4: And I think, honestly his floor is probably like twenty
Speaker 4: one fantasy points in the ceiling. He's going to crush
Speaker 4: Alvin Kamares forty four points that he put on the
Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys as well. So, Saquon Barkley, you got to
Speaker 4: have him in the starting lineups, like not like you
Speaker 4: were even questioning him, but just very just be very
Speaker 4: happy that you drafted him. He's about to go crazy
Speaker 4: again this week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like these aren't necessarily like a, hey,
Speaker 2: you don't know about this guy, Sakwon Barkley, you should
Speaker 2: start This is like, hey, man, you know about Saqua.
Speaker 2: I'm just reminding you to put him in your lineup
Speaker 2: because good things are going to happen. Like you know,
Speaker 2: it's like, look, Coca Cola, everybody knows about it, it's
Speaker 2: still they still run commercials just to remind you that,
Speaker 2: you know, it's the thing that you want in your life,
Speaker 2: and you.
Speaker 4: Want to have some good to celebrate this week, man,
Speaker 4: I mean say Quorn Markety going off. I mean, look,
Speaker 4: that's worth being happy about this week.
Speaker 1: That's exactly you know something well?
Speaker 2: I mean unless you're John Merra, in which case you're
Speaker 2: not sleeping well because is going off.
Speaker 1: Not great? Who's a hot start for you? In week ten?
Speaker 3: We spoke about him a little bit earlier when we
Speaker 3: were talking about rookie quarterbacks. Give me Drake May, who
Speaker 3: I know on paper, the Bears are a tough matchup.
Speaker 5: I'm not telling you that they're not. But you know
Speaker 5: who else was? The Jets, the Texans, the Titans.
Speaker 1: It has not mattered.
Speaker 3: Drake May has ran all over them in three full
Speaker 3: games that he has started, and finished nineteen Fantasy points
Speaker 3: per game in all four games that he has started,
Speaker 3: including the one against the Jets where he left early
Speaker 3: on in that game, forty nine rushing yards per game.
Speaker 3: He ran for ninety five last week. Plus the Patriots
Speaker 3: always in catchup mode, so he has to throw. He's
Speaker 3: not afraid to air it out so he could put
Speaker 3: up points in chunks. I'm fired up for Drake May.
Speaker 3: I am excited, and I know it's a tough matchup
Speaker 3: this week, the schedule gets better, but I still think
Speaker 3: he's in play because of what he does with his legs.
Speaker 2: I mean, again, like between Drake May and Bo Knicks,
Speaker 2: these are the guys who are doing some of the things,
Speaker 2: at least on a lower scale, that we thought Anthony
Speaker 2: Richardson was going to do, which is why we like them.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: And if they continue to develop his passers, then the
Speaker 2: ceiling only goes up from there. I'm gonna go with
Speaker 2: a guy who already has a high ceiling and could
Speaker 2: have an even higher one this week. That's George Kittle.
Speaker 2: And again we mentioned this before. Christian McCaffrey is back.
Speaker 2: That's all exciting, you're starting him, all of that, but
Speaker 2: let's not overlook what George Kittle means to this offense,
Speaker 2: had what he has meant to this offense. Amidst all
Speaker 2: the injuries and frustrations that the Niners offense has had
Speaker 2: this year, Kittle has been a constant. He leads the
Speaker 2: team in pretty much every major receiving category this season
Speaker 2: and has a fantastic matchup against a Tampa Bay secondary
Speaker 2: that has been shredded every which way all season long.
Speaker 1: They are one of the.
Speaker 2: Most favorable matchups for fantasy tight ends this season Kittle,
Speaker 2: whether he lines up at the tight end spot in
Speaker 2: a traditional way or if they move out to the
Speaker 2: slot or just move him around. I think you're gonna
Speaker 2: see brock Purty give him plenty of opportunity, and now
Speaker 2: having one more weapon back in this offense, that something
Speaker 2: else that Tampa has to account for. That is when
Speaker 2: George Kittle seems to have some of his biggest games.
Speaker 2: So look, you're starting George Kittle because even with the
Speaker 2: resurgence recently in tight ends, you still want those guys
Speaker 2: as you can set and forget. He has been one
Speaker 2: of them. I think this is just sort of a call,
Speaker 2: like the sa Quan Parkley call, to remind you get
Speaker 2: him in your lineup because it's going to be a
Speaker 2: good week for George Kittle.
Speaker 1: In the forty nine er passing game.
Speaker 2: That was Who Will Deliver presented by Uber Eats, where
Speaker 2: you can get the best deals on game day food
Speaker 2: all season long, the official on demand delivery partner of
Speaker 2: the NFL.
Speaker 1: Order.
Speaker 2: Now all right back to some of the more fantasy
Speaker 2: relevant in games in the Week ten slates.
Speaker 1: Uh, look, we on.
Speaker 2: The start with the Eagles and Cowboys because Dak Prescott
Speaker 2: gone for the foreseeable future. You're gonna go on, ir
Speaker 2: It seems I'm Cede Lamb has been the guy in
Speaker 2: this offense. But now with Cooper Rush potentially starting for
Speaker 2: at least a month maybe more.
Speaker 1: What is the ceiling for CD Lamb in fantasy?
Speaker 4: So I have the picture of that dog meme where
Speaker 4: everything's fire around him and like this is fine, that's
Speaker 4: CD Lamb because it's a complete dumpster fire over there
Speaker 4: in Dallas. And honestly, his ceiling, you're probably looking at
Speaker 4: low wind wide receiver two numbers, because we're all looking
Speaker 4: at Cooper Rush's numbers when he took over for Dak,
Speaker 4: when he was the starter, and how Cede Lamb performed.
Speaker 4: But we got to remember it doesn't have that top
Speaker 4: five oher line. He doesn't have that top five scoring
Speaker 4: offense or a top five defense. This is a completely
Speaker 4: different Dallas Cowboys offense and Cooper Rush might be walking
Speaker 4: into a complete trap of disaster and Cede Lamb might
Speaker 4: be the one to suffer, but we're banking on him
Speaker 4: playing through the shoulder injury, being banged up, and we're
Speaker 4: banking on volume here for him. So I'm not really
Speaker 4: high on cd Land to be having those big wide
Speaker 4: receiver one weeks until Dak is back.
Speaker 1: I'm a little more optimistic than you are.
Speaker 2: I don't know if he has the huge weeks, but
Speaker 2: you go back to a couple of years ago when
Speaker 2: Scooper Rush started the season, went the first six weeks
Speaker 2: as the Cowboys starter, still.
Speaker 1: A ton of targets.
Speaker 2: He had over four hundred yards receiving, had a couple
Speaker 2: of touchdowns in those six weeks. So the ceiling obviously
Speaker 2: comes down a little bit. I don't think the ceiling
Speaker 2: caves in yet on cd Land because where else are
Speaker 2: the Cowboys going to go with the football? Right Don Domingo,
Speaker 2: Like I said, where do the Cowboys go with the football?
Speaker 1: They're the worst rushing team in the league. I just
Speaker 1: I think there's still some hope there.
Speaker 2: Sunday Night Football Lions at the Texans again, I will
Speaker 2: turn to you, mister, Start, sit, start or sit CJ.
Speaker 1: Stroud against Detroit.
Speaker 3: Ooh listeners go to nfl dot COM's slash Start sit,
Speaker 3: and I write a whole bunch about what to do
Speaker 3: with CJ.
Speaker 1: Stroud. But if you just want to.
Speaker 3: Hear me say TLDR here, I think you sit in
Speaker 3: this week because I get it. Nico Collins is coming back,
Speaker 3: but CJ. Stroud as of late has struggled three straight
Speaker 3: games with fewer than thirteen fantasy points one passing touchdown
Speaker 3: in those three games. Now, maybe you could say, oh,
Speaker 3: it's because Nico Collins wasn't out there. I get that,
Speaker 3: but I am afraid of this matchup so much. The
Speaker 3: Lions have allowed the second fewest pass touchdowns in the NFL.
Speaker 3: They've nearly double the amount of interceptions as passing touchdowns
Speaker 3: allowed this year, and in the last month, third fewest
Speaker 3: fantasy points per game allowed to the position.
Speaker 5: One Fantasy QB one top twelve. That means since Week four.
Speaker 3: I think with the recent struggles and the matchup and
Speaker 3: everything you played safe, you get away from Stroud.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's just been so frustrating. I learned
Speaker 2: last week how many teams I have CJ. Stroud on
Speaker 2: and I did not like the view. Really kind of
Speaker 2: a frustrating situation there, Monkey and Night Football Dolphins at
Speaker 2: the Rams Rams trying to stay hot LaQuan.
Speaker 1: Who would you rather start? I don't know why I'm.
Speaker 2: Asking you this question, but well, anyway, DeMarcus Robin sen
Speaker 2: or Jalen Wattle.
Speaker 4: Give me DeMarcus Robinson.
Speaker 1: Baby, we got to man, he's been hot.
Speaker 4: Man, I look red Zone Robinson. I like to call
Speaker 4: him because honestly, he's that sneaky guy that nobody's paying
Speaker 4: attention to win Cooper Cup and Pook and the Ku
Speaker 4: are on the field. Even when Pooka off the field,
Speaker 4: all eyes are still on Cooper Cup as well. So therefore,
Speaker 4: DeMarcus Robinson is a guy that just sneaks through, get
Speaker 4: some really big moments and possibly find the end zone
Speaker 4: more times than not when they get into striking distance.
Speaker 4: So I'm liking DeMarcus this week. I'm not too sure
Speaker 4: Jalen Wattles were a start or if you can even
Speaker 4: trust him, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I don't actually really hate on that.
Speaker 2: I mean, I know I was giving you a hard time,
Speaker 2: but I do think that's sort of the move here
Speaker 2: because the dayn Wattle Dayan Wattle's been just underperforming is
Speaker 2: not even the word for it. With what he has
Speaker 2: done on a milk Carty, Yeah wow, is yeah, So
Speaker 2: so there you goose. That's our look though at the
Speaker 2: end of the Sunday So for the rest of this
Speaker 2: Sunday games, the rest of the Week ten games, I
Speaker 2: should say you can check out NFL Plus and Fantasy
Speaker 2: Extra or Flora and I go through the remainder of
Speaker 2: the Week ten slate. It's time to drive your line.
Speaker 2: I'm presented by the all new hybrid Toyota Camry. Beat
Speaker 2: it up a little bit, lakwan, what's your hot take?
Speaker 4: Remember a couple of weeks ago, Adam Troutman put up
Speaker 4: tight end one numbers. No exactly, nobody remembers that, even
Speaker 4: flinch to go pick him up. But I'm saying he
Speaker 4: does it again as a top three tight end this
Speaker 4: week going up against those Chiefs, and we know we
Speaker 4: can get production out of the tight ends. Going up
Speaker 4: against the Chiefs, I'm expecting a ton of yards because
Speaker 4: that's what he's a go getter. He's a go getter
Speaker 4: of the yards and maybe a lot of catches where
Speaker 4: he puts up tight end one numbers again this week.
Speaker 2: Every time I try to prop him up as a sleeper,
Speaker 2: I look at the usage racing, I'm like shit, But
Speaker 2: maybe maybe this week, Floria, what is your hot take
Speaker 2: for the week?
Speaker 3: Not as hot as that one, but I think Tyrone
Speaker 3: Tracy Junior top five running back this week in fantasy football.
Speaker 3: We've already see him take over this backfield in the
Speaker 3: last two games. He's twenty three and seventeen opportunities. He
Speaker 3: is playing the vast majority of snaps, He's getting used
Speaker 3: during the goal line, in the passing game, everything that
Speaker 3: you want out of a fantasy running back, and now
Speaker 3: he has the best possible matchup.
Speaker 5: A running back can have.
Speaker 3: The Panthers have allowed the most rushing yards, rushing touchdowns,
Speaker 3: and fantasy points two running backs. This is an issue
Speaker 3: that goes way back beyond just this season, and this
Speaker 3: is a rare game where the Giants actually could have
Speaker 3: a lead in the second half, and if that is
Speaker 3: the case, I expect to see a whole lot of
Speaker 3: Tracy grinding out the clock over in Germany.
Speaker 2: I do love Tyrone Tracy this week. The backfield takeover
Speaker 2: seems complete between him and Devin Singletarry. As for me,
Speaker 2: my hot take for the week maybe not as hot
Speaker 2: as either one of yours, but that Mikeasiki is going
Speaker 2: to post his second straight twenty point game coming up
Speaker 2: this week against the Baltimore Ravens. Right now, T Higgins
Speaker 2: is doubtful for the Thursday night game between Baltimore and
Speaker 2: since it and we have seen without t Higgins Mike
Speaker 2: Gaseki have some really big games. Also the fact that
Speaker 2: Baltimore has been very forgiving against the tight end position
Speaker 2: so far this season. Anytime I mean an athletic tight
Speaker 2: end has lined up against the Ravens defense, they have
Speaker 2: had a really good game.
Speaker 1: I think that's going to be the case this week.
Speaker 2: We talked about this early a potential for a high
Speaker 2: scoring affair between these two clubs, and I think Mike
Speaker 2: Gasiki maybe we see him gritty again. He brings over
Speaker 2: Jamar Chase and they get down in the end zone.
Speaker 2: So we'll see how that goes.
Speaker 1: There you go. Those are our hot takes for Week ten.
Speaker 2: That was Drive Your Lineup presented by the all new
Speaker 2: hybrid Toyota Camri. Whatever your vibe, it's a camera vibe.
