Don't forget 18 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: to tweet the show at NFL Fantasy again. Elliot, You've 19 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: got an interesting story as to why you chose the 20 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs. Oh, that's right. My dad was a 21 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: Dallas Texans fan. When they came to the league, they 22 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: moved to Kansas City became the chief My dad stayed 23 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: a fan his whole life the Kansas City Chiefs. So 24 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: I'm representing there, you go. Nice stuff, all right. Listen, 25 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: it's weeks seventeen rather and it regards to the real playoffs. 26 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: The fast ploffs pretty much done here, but there's still 27 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: a few teams still in the hunt in the real 28 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: life game, the Ravens, Chargers, Falcons, Panthers and other teams 29 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: still vying for different playoffs seating still playing for something. 30 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: So what can we expect from players that are still 31 00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: in the playoff hunt? And we'll start in the NFC 32 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: sound Well, that's where you want to look at the 33 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: top starts, because if a player doesn't have anything to 34 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: played for, or maybe he's gonna miss a quarter or two, 35 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: like potentially the combos about that's the big concerns. So 36 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: look at Cam Newton this week, look at Matt Ryan 37 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: this week, Kevin Benjamin. These guys all have something to 38 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: play for, which is the NFC South title and moreover, Harrison. Moreover, 39 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: there's going to be plenty of production to be had 40 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: in this contest. Could be a high scoring game. You 41 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: know last year when the Falcons and Panthers teamed up 42 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: in it laying at the end of the season, Matt 43 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: ryots but the whole game. Hopefully that doesn't happen. The 44 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: past protection holds up Julio Jones is gonna present a 45 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: problem for that Carolina secondary. That said, I expect the 46 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: Panther's defense to go out and compete. They've been playing 47 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: a lot better than last three games giving up seventeen 48 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 1: points or last James. Yeah, it's very interesting because you know, 49 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: they started the season, I don't even want to say 50 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: start the season. The first fifteen weeks of the season, 51 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: they were a trow shoot. People were putting up points 52 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 1: and yards on them. But yet in the last two weeks, 53 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, they've been better. The Atlanta defense, 54 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 1: though we haven't seen improvement. Cam Newton should be in 55 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: line for a nice day. They did stop Drew Brees 56 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: last week. About Cam Newton is that this is going 57 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: to be a guy who's running with the football now 58 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks, he has put up 59 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: over a hundred forty rushing yards. He has had two 60 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns. And that's where Cam Newton drives a lot 61 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: of his fantasy value is as a you like that, 62 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: what's going on with you? Take your twenty years later? 63 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,679 Speaker 1: I got about I didn't even think that was any good. Yeah. 64 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: I hope that Cam Newton sat in front of the 65 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: TV Sunday night and watch what Russell Wilson did. Keep 66 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: yourself under control. You can run the ball, just be 67 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: responsible about it. No one to throw it away, no 68 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: one to play another down, no one to take off, 69 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: no question about it. And Can has been one of 70 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: the best quarterbacks in fantasy in his career because of that. 71 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: It's super surprising. Also considering that he's coming off the 72 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: car acts of broken bones in his back, it's been amazing. 73 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: All right, another injury at the quarter back, Yeah, exactly, 74 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: that would be Philip Rivers. What should we expect san Diego? Yes, 75 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: in the playoff funt they need to win. What does 76 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers do this week? Alright, fabs, you didn't like 77 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: him last week? Do you like him this? No? I don't. 78 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: It's a tough matchup. The Chiefs are allowing an average, 79 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: if you were, the fifteen fantasy points per game to 80 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: quarterbacks this year, and it's hard for me to trust Rivers. 81 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: I know this is a situation where the Chargers need 82 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 1: to win, but Rivers is a little bit scary for 83 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: me because even despite the fact that he had a 84 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: good game last week, his numbers over the last six 85 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: weeks overall not good. I love you, but I'm gonna 86 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: disagree with you. I think Philip Rivers rises to the 87 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: occasion and these exact kind of games. He did it 88 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: last year, he did it last week. I think he's 89 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: gonna do it again at least seventeen Fantasy points for him, 90 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 1: if not higher. It's shocking also how well Antonio Gates 91 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: has played. There are also those teams that have more 92 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: or less pretty much locked up where they are in 93 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs and they're not really fighting for anything. Their 94 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: playoff positions are set. Patriots, Colts, Cowboys, all those guys 95 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: come to mind. So from those teams, what are we 96 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: who are some stars that we're looking at the maybe 97 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 1: resting here And we'll start with your team that's Cowboys, 98 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: and honestly, the Cowboys need a miracle to to get 99 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: a first run by me green Band Detroit after tie Seattle. 100 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 1: As to lose, it's not gonna happen. So what the 101 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: Cowboys could do is play Romo and play DeMarco maybe 102 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: for a quarter, maybe to sit him on the bench 103 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: in the second half, because the Cowboys really don't have 104 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: any way, uh well in reality to move up and 105 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: DeMarco Murray think is the guy that you worry about 106 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: the most, elliot, because of that hand I agree with you. 107 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,919 Speaker 1: You know, there's a little bit of president here. In 108 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: two thousand seven, when Jason Garrett was offensive coordinator, the 109 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys were in this situation. It was at that game 110 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: by the Washington and we ended up playing at quarterback 111 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: Brat Johnson. It was raining, it was cold, and we 112 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: lost bad. How about Andrew Luck in the Colts. The 113 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: Colts really, I mean truly honestly not playing for anything here. 114 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck was a huge disappointment in week sixteen. Does 115 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 1: he even play in reach that I think he does, 116 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,919 Speaker 1: and I think it would be really not smart to 117 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 1: not play because quite frankly, he hasn't played well the 118 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: last three weeks in a row. Let's gre touchdowns, five interceptions. 119 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: Those aren't Andrew Luck number the last three weeks fifty 120 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: two percent completions. Strange. Does he really want to go 121 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: in the playoffs on this kind of run? I don't 122 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: think so. I expect him to play most of the 123 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: first half, right, But even just playing, it's not gonna 124 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: be enough. That's not gonna help you in fantasy. It 125 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: makes your risk. T Y Hilton, same thing coming off 126 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: the hamstring. Even if he plays as he played the 127 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: whole game, they've got arrest. T Y always rest or 128 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: wide receivers. Andrew Luck his entire career has been a 129 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: slow starter, but he's always picked it up late those 130 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 1: last four weeks. As you mentioned, he just hasn't picked 131 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,799 Speaker 1: it up late those garbage time points. He just hasn't 132 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: gotten those points. So it's been interesting to see, all right. 133 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: For more discussion of players that are playing for a 134 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: playoff spot and will be extra motivated in weeks seventeen, 135 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,239 Speaker 1: head over to NFL Now.

He's NFL dot Com Fantasy 140 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: under and Marcus Grant. I'm Molly Caram here with you. 141 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: We're talking daily fantasy. You ask, what is that. Basically 142 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: what you do is you complete a lineup based on 143 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: salaries and get it all under a salary cap. The 144 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: best part it resets each week, so you screw up 145 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: start over. So let's get to some draft bargains for 146 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: this week. Matt Austota having a huge game on Sunday, 147 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: not racking up the yards, but getting the touchdowns and 148 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: a nice matchup against the Bears. Yeah. Absolutely, And that's 149 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: the thing about us. Yet, he's not a guy who's 150 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: gonna get you a lot of yards. Don't expect him 151 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: to put up a hundred hundred and twenty yards or 152 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: anything like that. But he scores touchdowns and bunches. I mean, 153 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: that's what he does. You see that the nine rushing 154 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: touchdowns this season all all came in about three or 155 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: four games, because that's just the way he plays. Plus 156 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: like the fact that, honestly, Jay Cutler is back this 157 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: week for the Bears. He turns the ball over a 158 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: lot that could leave the Vikings with some short fields, 159 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: so Asota has a chance to punch it in and 160 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: the value pretty low. Five thousand dollars for Matt Asiota. 161 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: That's a pretty good bargain. We're gonna stay with that 162 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: same team and up the price just a little bit 163 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: five thousand, nine hundred. Teddy Bridgewater coming off arguably the 164 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: best game of his career and also getting this a 165 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: decimated Chicago defense. Yeah, Teddy two gloves is what I've 166 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 1: been taking the calling him the last couple of weeks. 167 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: He's better, He's you look at all the rookie quarterbacks 168 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,559 Speaker 1: who stepped in and play in. Bridgewater has been maybe 169 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: the most consistent of them, and he's found some nice weapons. 170 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: And we thought of me Cordello Patterson, it hasn't been 171 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: but Charles Johnson, Greg Jennings has stepped up and played well, 172 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: and Bridgewater it's like a nice option, especially as you 173 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: mentioned against that very secondary Another guy that could be 174 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: potential great value that some of you might not have 175 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: heard of, DeVonta Freeman. He could have a nice role 176 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: against the Panthers, especially if Steven Jackson can go. Absolutely 177 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: we have seen a lot more of DeVonta Freeman in 178 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: the last few weeks and see him they're able to 179 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: break through the line and have show his good speed. 180 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: He's a guy who catches the ball well out of 181 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: the backfield as well, So not only can he do 182 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: what Stephen Jackson does as a running bag, but he's 183 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: starting to take a lot of what Jackquiz Rodgers did 184 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: as a pass catching back out of the backfield. And 185 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 1: certainly he's not a guy that a lot of people 186 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: pay attention to. He's not a big name, but in 187 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: a big game against a shaky defense, DeVonta Freeman has 188 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: some potential to produce so great value. And now let's 189 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: switch it up now to the guys who should absolutely 190 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: break the bank and you should pull the trigger on 191 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: od B has to be Odell Beckham Jr. A no brainer, 192 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,839 Speaker 1: right absolutely. I don't know how I don't write, I 193 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: don't know how you don't pick Odell beckup at this point. 194 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: I mean, everything the guy does has been fantastic. Everything 195 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: he touches seems to turn into gold. So yes, nine hundred, 196 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: it is a steep price. He is one of the 197 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: highest price wide receivers on the board. But he's doing 198 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: stuff like this and running with nobody else on the 199 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: screen along with him. I don't know how you don't 200 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: take a chance on that guy. This next one, I'm 201 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: a little confused with, just because it's Rob Gronkowski and 202 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: he's seven thousand, four hundred. They're hosting the Bills just 203 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: because New England doesn't have anything to play for. Yeah, 204 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: they really don't. I mean, they have locked up one 205 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: number one seed, they got home field, about the playoffs 206 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: they got at all. Bill Belichick is not the kind 207 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: of coach who sits his stars even in games and 208 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: don't have a whole lot of meeting. He likes to 209 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: play those guys. I mean we saw in previous seasons 210 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: when the Patriots have everything locked up, you'll still see 211 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: Tom Brady and Bronk and those guys out there for 212 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: the better part of the ballgame. So even though there's 213 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: a chance, maybe those guys said, I'm willing to take 214 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: that chance, especially because when you get tight end, who 215 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: else are you really going to pick? No? Very true 216 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: high risk Hira wat with that one, mark Ingram looks 217 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: like a tremendous play getting the Bucks defense. It really 218 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: doesn't look I know, on the other side either, because 219 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: they are out of the playoffs. At this point, there's 220 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: nothing going on for them, But for mark Ingram there 221 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: is still some value here because this is his last 222 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: chance to put something on tape before he hits free 223 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: agency in the off season. This is a guy playing 224 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 1: for a new contract, and we talked about it all year. 225 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: Guys and contract years really have a lot going on. 226 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: Plus the Bucks. You see that they're a hundred and 227 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: ten plus rushing yards and six of the last seven 228 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: games they are vulnerable. This is a chance for mark 229 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: Ingram to shine one last time before the off seats. No, 230 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 1: very good point. You don't want to leave a bad 231 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: taste in me. Your future is on the line, and 232 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: money money money. Okay, here it is so Eli Manning 233 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: there at quarterback, boom Heron one of the running backs. 234 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: We talked about Astata and Odell Beckham Jr. Cold Beasley 235 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 1: interesting play there. Yeah, you know I were big with 236 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham, but base is the guy who's been a 237 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: bigger part of the offense the last couple of weeks 238 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: with the Cowboys James Jones and then obviously finished things 239 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: off there with the Texans defense. Let's look a nice 240 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: little line up there for Week seventeen.

Babs explain to the people how this 258 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: game works. Well, Basically, what you want to do is 259 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: first pick the teams that you think you're going to 260 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: go to the super Bowl and you want to compile 261 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: the most points. Uh, there are multiplayers every single round. 262 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,959 Speaker 1: So if you pick, say someone like Tom Brady in 263 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: the first round, even though the Patriots are likely to 264 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: have a buy with the first round, uh, they can 265 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: still compile points by getting Tom Brady double points in 266 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: week two, if they win triple points in week three, 267 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 1: which is Championship week, and then of course quadruple points 268 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: in the super Bowl. Okay, so you set up your 269 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: lineup each week, then it correct and if one of 270 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: your players loses, you lose that player, but you can 271 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: replace over another one. But you start all over again 272 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: with the multiplayer and it's free and you can go 273 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. So it's pretty cool. So let's 274 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: I want to go to the Super Bowl. Yeah yeah, 275 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: all right. Let's take you through the a f C 276 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: playoff picture as of now, and of course we know 277 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: the Broncos and the Colts have clinched their divisions, Patriots 278 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: have locked up everything home seating first as much up 279 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: for grabs this year, no no, no, no, etcetera. And 280 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: the Steelers also in there. Let's look to the NFC now, 281 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 1: and as you can see, we've got the Lions in, 282 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 1: We've got the Cowboys in both the Packers and the 283 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: Seattle if they win this week, will get the division 284 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: against the Rams. So that's gonna be a fun one 285 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: to watch. But before we start diving into playoff challenge, 286 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: as you know, the teams that make it to the 287 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: super Bowl, as you alluded to get four times the 288 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: amount of points. Guys, who do you see going to 289 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? Well, I mean it's gonna be the 290 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: Patriots and the Seahawks. We're taking it easy. We're taking 291 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: the easy road because we're gonna take the likely number one, 292 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: seedy old pick, number one seed. Go ahead, you stole 293 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: my super Bowl. By the way, I think Atlanta and 294 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: Carolina are gonna tie New England New England over Seattle 295 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: this whole time. And I gotta be honest, Seattle has 296 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 1: made me wonder if they're gonna beat New England after 297 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: the way they played against the Cardinals. But I mean, 298 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: Tom Brady is a great pick for this spect he is. 299 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: The One thing that worries me is that how many 300 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: times have we gone into the playoffs thinking the Patriots 301 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: are going all the way and they get that off, 302 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: you know, the Ravens beating something happens and the Patriots 303 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: lose before they get to the Super Bowl. No, I mean, 304 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: I think that's the fear because Tom Brady in the 305 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: playoffs recently has not been great. But you look at 306 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: the rest of the a f C, and who is 307 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: there really? I mean the Broncos certainly, we've lost a 308 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: lot of faith in them with the way Peyton Manning 309 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: has played, you know, not but I think I think 310 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: if there's a team that could be a dark course, 311 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: it is probably the Pittsburgh Steelers. But just you look 312 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: at the way teams have played this year that the 313 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: Patriots seemed like the choice in the a f C. 314 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: You're still Patriots Seahawks. I you know, I think at 315 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: the beginning of the season, I was Patriots Packers. But 316 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: just the way the Seahawks have come on recently, it's 317 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: hard to go, especially if the Niners fan card by 318 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: the way. But but but I but I keep my 319 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: UFC Pete Carroll fan cards. I see how that works. Okay, 320 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: it's like that, you know, But yeah, I like the Seahawks. 321 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: I mean, they have turned it on at the right 322 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 1: time of year. I mean, earlier in the season they 323 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: had injuries in the in the defense, they weren't playing 324 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: quite so well. But now Russell Wilson is playing his 325 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: best football. They've saved Marshawn Lynch for the best time 326 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: of year. He's to get healthy. I mean, as long 327 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: as his tummy isn't rumbling coming up this weekend. He's 328 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: starting to get better right now. And even with a 329 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: group of no name receivers, that offense finds waste to prosper. 330 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: All right, So as we can see here the Patriots 331 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: obviously locking up that one seed. Do we all assume 332 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: the Seahawks are going to beat the Ramps and do 333 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: that as well? All right? You're looking at a list 334 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: of the number one seeds meeting in the Super Bowl. 335 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: There's quite a few, gentlemen, you remember that story. What 336 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: do you think of this? Just looking at this list, 337 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: It doesn't happen as often as you think. Look at 338 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: the disparities from thousand ninet's a long time, and we 339 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: went we went for a stretching too. There was a 340 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: lot of wild card teams going to the Super Bowl, 341 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 1: like the Giants and the Ravens and the Cardinals, and 342 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: the seed thing. Alright, So when those teams that are 343 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: making the playoffs, which fantasy players do you see as 344 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: sleepers for the playoff challenge? Can I go first? I'm 345 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: gonna go first. I'm gonna go Brandon Lael because I 346 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: think the Patriots are gonna go to the super Bowl. 347 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: And LaFell has been one of the best receivers in 348 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: New England. In fact, he's having a career season seventy catches, 349 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: almost nine hundred yards and seven touchdowns this year. And 350 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: right now June Edmonds banged up just coming off the concussion, 351 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: didn't play last week. So Lafella is a guy that 352 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: if you think the Patriots are going all the way 353 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: and you want to get that multiplier, that quadruple multiplier, 354 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: he is a good sleeper. I agree with you. And 355 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: because justin for sets emergence, I feel like Brandon LaFell 356 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: has not gotten quite the credit for being a great 357 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: waiver wire pickup in fantasy. This year. He helped me 358 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: win the Pro Football Football Forecast League in the industry 359 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: this year. He was good. Helly you here on a 360 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: big ben here you know Ben Roethlisberger. I really debated 361 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: this one between the Packers defense and Ben Roethlisberger, And 362 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: I just think Roethlisberger is a more fun pick to 363 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: go with and being really as you were saying, as 364 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: the Steelers could make it, or one of you guys 365 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: were saying, it would be a lot of fun they 366 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: make the super Bowl, And I think that the Steelers 367 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: have a shot based on the way they're offense is 368 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: playing in their pass rush has gotten a lot better. 369 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,360 Speaker 1: That's been the problem for them in his defense and man, 370 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,360 Speaker 1: how productive. But we've seen Ben Roltis Burger being spots 371 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: this year. He plays big in big games. You know, Marcus, 372 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 1: there's another quarterback who's been playing really well this year. Yeah, 373 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 1: there has been. I can't believe you left it to me, 374 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: Fats and actually talked to talking about a Dallas cowboy. 375 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: But I know, I know, I used to hate Antonio 376 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 1: Ramiro Romo. The guy's been fantastic this year. You don't 377 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: go by that name, I don't know, because that sounds 378 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 1: awesome though, right Antonio Roost But yes, you know, I 379 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,719 Speaker 1: admittedly haven't been one to pile on Tony Romo when 380 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: he's throwing some unfortunate interception, but this year he's been good. 381 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: So I will give you credit your guy on it, 382 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: and he stepped up and he's played well, and we 383 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: saw a lot of it, certainly last week against the Colts. 384 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: But the Cowboys could be sneaking in these playoffs, and 385 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 1: if they win a game or two, which is certainly possible, 386 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: Romo is gonna be a big part of what they 387 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: do and getting them all to Dez Brian imagine, I 388 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: could imagine if you see Cowboys Patriots in the Super Bowl. 389 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: Keep dreaming, Oh my god, that would be great. Ellie. 390 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: We saw a lot of Wilson to Wilson this last weekend. Yeah, 391 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 1: you look, you say a sleeper. So I'm trying to 392 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: pick a sleeper, and I think Seattle is a legit 393 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: Super Bowl pick. We just went through that, all right. 394 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: So if you go through Seattle, is Seattle's defensive sleeper, 395 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: is Russell Wilson as sleeper? No, Marshawn Lynch a sleeper? No, No, 396 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: that leaves Luke Wilson. All right, Maybe you could talk 397 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: to me about Stephen Haushka after the way he boxed 398 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: those kicks the other night. Usually reliable, but Luke Wilson 399 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: really did a job a number on the Cardinals. And 400 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 1: if teams are gonna keep covering them with a linebacker, 401 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: don't you think Seattle's offensive staff is going to try 402 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 1: to isolate him and coverage. And you know what, obviously 403 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: he's earned Russell Wilson's trust. Again, we're talking about a sleeper. 404 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: This is a deep sleeper. And you're trying to pick 405 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: guys that you think we'll go to the super Bowl 406 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: so you can get the multiples. You know who likes 407 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: that pick, his brother, Owen Wilson. Let's talk about another 408 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawk here though, Doug bold when he was targeted 409 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 1: a team high eleven times last week, Jermaine curse getting sidelined. 410 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: You guys are putting cold in my stocking for that joke. 411 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: If you think the Seahawks are going to the super Bowl, 412 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: it's the same situation as Brandon la Fell. You want 413 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: that multiplier, the quadruple multiplier, the big one, and Doug 414 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: Baldon leads the Seahawks and just about every single receiving 415 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: category this year. Good place, the guys, these sweaters were 416 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: good place. Let's slave back tomorrow. Thank you. I like 417 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: the v neck. If you're a super Bowl it's a 418 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: week seventeen. Then you don't want to miss Michael Fabiano's 419 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: last Stardom Cinema of this season. I know we're just 420 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: as sad as you are that the fantasy season is 421 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: almost over and we put a new spin on our 422 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 1: two minute drill. It's time to look forward to next 423 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: year's draft and figure out where you're going to pick 424 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: some stars and bus from. It's Wednesday. On this week's 425 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: seventeen meeting, it's time for Michael Fabiano's final edition of 426 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: his weekly Start in the Cinema list. You can check 427 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,919 Speaker 1: out the full list at nfl dot com. Slash Start 428 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: sit brings a cheer to my I palace. All right, 429 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: there you go, We're gonna start the running back position. 430 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill has really emerged. It's by splitting carriers with 431 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: Jeoffanni Bernard. Well, that split has been less of a 432 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: split lately because he's had forty seven carries combined in 433 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: his last two games and he's really become the centerpiece 434 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: of the Bengals backfield and that offense. He scored four 435 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 1: touchdowns in his last five games. He leads all rookie 436 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: running backs in rushing yards, in rushing touchdowns, and remember 437 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: how we were all about Bishop Sanky, including myself. It's 438 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: been Jeremy Hill who's been the best rookie running back 439 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: the Steelers. They have been tough against the run, but 440 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: to me, it doesn't matter. He's matchup proof. It's a 441 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: big game for both of these teams. Jeremy Hills the centerpiece. 442 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: Start him this week against Pittsburgh. A running back that 443 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 1: I would sit is Trey Mason, and Trey Mason has 444 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: been easy to predict. Bad matchup, keep him on your bench. 445 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: Good matchup like last week, startup. This week he's playing 446 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: against the Seahawks James b A bad matchup by the way, 447 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: I love the sweater and is there a worst matchup 448 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: for any position than playing in the Great Northwest against Seattle. 449 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: He has scored through within seven Fantasy points in two 450 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: of his last three games. The Seahawks have a lot 451 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 1: of these second fewest anasy points some running backs in 452 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: the last four weeks getting up an average a fewer 453 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 1: than ten points per game. That's not just a one 454 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 1: running back, that's all of them. So Trey Mason, nice 455 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: rookie season. The arrow is pointing up for you, but 456 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: sit down. In Week seventeen, alright, so Jeremy Hill start 457 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, Fabo is mark Ingram, Jonathan Stewart has 458 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: emerged for Carolina, Andre Williams, they're filling in for Rishad 459 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: Jennings said, I'm joyke Bill, Isaiah crow Well for Frank 460 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: and Bore despite having a nice afternoon last week, has 461 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: a little bit of a tougher go this week. That's 462 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: all right, We're gonna transition to the wide receivers now, 463 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: O d B. You mentioned match up proof. This guy 464 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: is basically matchup proof and he's taking on a very 465 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: soft Eagles pass d Basically, this is a no brainer, 466 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: right you're starting, how big is it? Just starting Ode 467 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: Beckham Junior. But a lot of people on Twitter we're 468 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 1: saying keep him in startom this week because I have 469 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: had him in startom basically since this streak started. And 470 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 1: you know some people are superstitious up there. If you 471 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: keep him in the Colos startom, well it's gonna keep producing. 472 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: And oh no, Backham has been on real over thousand 473 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: yards eight touchdowns in his last eight weeks. The Eagles 474 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: have a lot of the second most Fantasy points of 475 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: wide receivers this year, giving up an average of over 476 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: twenty six points per game. They've given up twenty receiving touchdowns. 477 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: That's tied for the third most in the league. This 478 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: guy is gonna be a first round pick next year. 479 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: I'm not going to pick him in the first round. 480 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: But people are all about Odell Beckham Jr. And the 481 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: hype A player that I would sit Sammy Watkins, and 482 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 1: I swung and I missed on him last week. Bad matchup. 483 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: He still put up pretty good numbers, but he scored 484 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,919 Speaker 1: for the first time in seven games. And if the 485 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: Patriots continue to play their starters in the week seventeen 486 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: like they typically do, what does that mean? Sammy Watkins 487 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: could be very lonely on Revas Islands. So keep tabs 488 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 1: on what you're hearing about from New England this week 489 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: because they have nothing to play for it. But Bill 490 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: Belichick always plays his starters regardless layoff positioning. So if 491 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: that's the case Revas against Watkins, I don't like it 492 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: all Right. Another rookie to go along with Odell Beckham, 493 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 1: Junior Calvin Benjamin, Mike Evans, and Mike Wallace almost all roos. 494 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: That's amazing. Uh send him side Eric Deck or no 495 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 1: surprise Lary Fitzgerald de Sean Jackson one touchdown in his 496 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: career against Dallas. All right, there you go. I'm a 497 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: little bit surprised there, but hey, listen, we'll go to 498 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,239 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. Cam Newton, Well, he really might be 499 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: Superman because the dude broke bones in his back and 500 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: then still balled out less than two weeks later. He's 501 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: dump in twenty two fantasy points last week? Does he 502 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,959 Speaker 1: do it again this week? He's doing a little my friend, right, 503 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 1: And Cam Newton is someone who has two things going 504 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: for him this week. Number one, he's playing for something 505 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: okay in the week seventeen, you want to focus on that. 506 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: And number two, he's playing in Atlanta, okay, and the 507 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 1: Falcons have not been good this year defensively, although they 508 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: did hold resent tackle. What I really like about Newton 509 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: he's getting back to running the Paul James and his 510 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: last two games or a hundred and forty six rushing 511 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: yards and two rushing touchdowns. That's we're getting back at all. 512 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: That's where his value comes from. He's not the greatest 513 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: passer in the world in terms of putting up points, 514 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: but if you can run, and if he's going to run. 515 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: That helps you in championship week, he's got something to 516 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: play for stardom again in Atlanta. The quarterback that I 517 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: think a lot of people are worried about is Matthew 518 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: Stafford this week because last week we liked him, we 519 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: were gagall over him against the pairs, and he put 520 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: up a stinker. And he's got to play the green 521 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 1: Bay Packers. Fourteen touchdowns, twenty turnovers and eight crew games 522 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: against green Bay. He's thrown for over two hundred seventy 523 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: yards once in his last five games against the Packers. 524 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: And green Bay has allowed the fewest fancy points at 525 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the last two weeks. And if you look 526 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: at his numbers in lambeau Field, he had one huge game, 527 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: he had five touchdowns, the other two games one touchdown 528 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 1: a piece. And let's be honest, can you trust Matthew 529 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:36,919 Speaker 1: Stafford right now? I don't think he can. He just 530 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 1: can't do it. He has been one of the bigger disappointments, 531 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: especially if you remember in Week one he had a 532 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 1: huge game against the Giants. It's been very inconsistent production 533 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: ever since. No doubt about especially against green Bay. There's 534 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: just a lot of concern they're all right. Start side, 535 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: Eli Manning again taking on Philadelphia Eagles. Matt Ryan and 536 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 1: Cam Newton both in that same game, both pretty solid starts, 537 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: and Mark Sanchez a good start as well against the 538 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 1: New York Football Giants. On the sit side, Joe Flacco, Philipers, 539 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: Tony Romo. Let me talk about Romo here, yes, please, 540 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: this is not about the matchup. If this was a 541 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,719 Speaker 1: game that meant something to the Cowboys, Romo would be 542 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: a must start. But he might not play more than 543 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: a quarter or two, and that worries me. So he 544 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 1: and DeMarco Murray might be taking some time rest these 545 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: guys for the playoffs. Did I mention the Cowboys are 546 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: at the East. That's why I'm worried about Romo and 547 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: all the Cowboys this week. All right, there you go, 548 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: and coming up, we're gonna turn an eye towards next year. 549 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: We're gonna go rapid fire to tell you where you 550 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: should draft breakout studs like oh Del Beckham Jr. Andrew 551 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: Luck and Russell Wilson. And you think it's too early 552 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: to talk sleepers, as mc franklin would say, wrong. Adam 553 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: Rank stopped by for his list of way too early 554 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 1: sleepers coming up next still the come on NFL Fantasy Live. 555 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 1: You are invited to our white Elephant party.

Tom Brady and 558 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: Tony Romo might even show up. And all we want 559 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: for Christmas is Alfred Morris to get more goal line 560 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: Perry's next season. That and the rest of the fantasy 561 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 1: wish list is ahead, and it's time for one last heights. 562 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: This time Ranks the Levin joined the party to help 563 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: steal you some sleepers in next season's fantasy draft.

We 575 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: ripped through as many Fantasy genius questions as we can 576 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: and try to give the people what they want answers 577 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: stually on the holidays. Yes, let's do it, Yes, all right? 578 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: Where should you draft Andrew Luck? We're talking Team league 579 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 1: sure ten, team league bottom of the third round at 580 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: the earliest. Why three six points puts a little damper 581 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: on you know about a month ago. But I said 582 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: first round. But the way he is slumped in the 583 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 1: last few weeks, I think I dropped and probably to 584 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 1: mid to late second me too, especially after you lost 585 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 1: Fantasy Championship thanks to him. Not better though. Where should 586 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: you draft Odell Beckham Jr. I think I'm gonna wait 587 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: on him till late second, early third, but I know 588 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: he's going to go off the board in the first round. 589 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: He's that sex. I would go eighteenth overall, very very specific. Yeah, 590 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: it's where should you draft Russell Wilson has to be rising? No, 591 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: but yeah, but still no earlier than the fifth round. No, 592 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 1: No earlier than that would take him right around where 593 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,159 Speaker 1: I would take Andrew Luck in the third round. Yeah, 594 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,919 Speaker 1: all right, where would you draft to Marco Murray? I 595 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: think I think he's still in the first round, but 596 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: I think he's bottom of the first round. I go 597 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: top five. Why he dropping? We don't have good offensive 598 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,400 Speaker 1: line next year old line? Alright, where should you draft 599 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: Alshan Dreft for Ricky because we don't know the situation 600 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 1: of Jake Collen. Yeah, yeah, I'm looking at you. Yeah, 601 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: I'm still going early second round without who's gonna throw 602 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 1: the ball? Just you see he set you up if 603 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: you jump by j Jimmy Clawson got him the ball. Okay, 604 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: I go third round. But it's a huge difference Marshawn 605 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: Lynch when it depends so much on where he plays. 606 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: But if he were to stay in Seattle, he'd be 607 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: the fifth overall picks. Absolutely. If he's still in Seattle, 608 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: he's early, early first one. All right, what about Jeo 609 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: Bernard With Jeremy Hill there, it's get a little tricky 610 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: nowhere in the first four rounds for me, maybe fifth. Yeah, 611 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: I think that's about right. I mean this year he 612 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: was gonna sund I think that's what he's going to become. 613 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill moves up to I think the second round. 614 00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: There drop sometimes Marcus surprised you with really it Annaly 615 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: be nice. Where would you draft CD J Anderson? I 616 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: want s J Anderson early second round? That's yea, that's 617 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: a lord. I probably wait more towards the back end 618 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: of the second round. Now, I know we're splitting hairs here, 619 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: but when you're in the second round, it's a big 620 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: different late, no doubt. Good stuff guy, next year, it 621 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: sounds good. We started to spend things to We've got 622 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: a few more segments, and so is Adam ranked with 623 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: some sleepers for next year. Take it away, hey, everybody, 624 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: Adam Rank here time now for a too soon look 625 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: at some sleepers for next season. We start with Trey Mason. 626 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: You might debate me if he really counts as a sleeper, 627 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: but we all remember Zack Stacy right. What I like 628 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: Mason for the coming year. He started third on the 629 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: depth chart, but became the number one guy as he 630 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: improved in all facets of his game, including past protection 631 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: and receiving. He'll be even better next year. Of course, 632 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: a new quarterback and offensive coordinator and hurt either. Let's 633 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 1: stick to the running backs. In DeVonta Freeman, he showed 634 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: a lot of bursts and his TV run against the Saints. 635 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: Fantasy enthusiasts probably would have liked that for this season, 636 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: but I'm not really sure what the Falcons deal was. 637 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: Freeman would have done great things if he was given 638 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: the opportunity, but it's not like the Falcons needed it. 639 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: Since seven wins gets you the NFC South. Freeman is 640 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: going to have a monster two thousand fifteen season, and 641 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: I avow to draft him way too early. How about 642 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: a tight end for you? C J. Fedor Wicks will 643 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: be a nice fine. He's already made a name for 644 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 1: himself and that helps no one this year. He will 645 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: become a name to watch next season. Bill O'Brien helped 646 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: bold tight ends into England, and he will do it 647 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: again in Houston. He might not be another Rob Gronkowski, 648 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: but another Owen Daniels would suffice. And how about one 649 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: more running back? Carlos Hide. I know we say it 650 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 1: every year, but this is the year that Frank Gore 651 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: moves aside and lows Hide is ready to take the mantle. 652 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 1: He looked great in his limited work this season and 653 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: he's going to be a monster as the number one 654 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: back next year in San Francisco.

This is a great sweater. It's Christmas Eve. 677 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: If we're gonna break out our wish list for Santa things, 678 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: what do the the years is not? We're talking about things 679 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: we want for the fantasy football season. FABS gonna stir 680 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: it up. You know, I have a wish for something 681 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: right now, Right now, I want to hear Michael McDonald 682 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: sing a Christmas Carol. Who among us can sing Michael McDonald? 683 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll see we can dial that well. 684 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: My other wish for is that Jeremy Hill will be 685 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 1: a featured back for the Cincinnati Bengals, because if he does, 686 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: see the lion share that carries in that backfield. Boy, 687 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 1: we're talking about a guy who could bring back first 688 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: round value. And I was a huge fantasy of Ianni 689 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: Bernard and I still am. He's one of the most 690 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: versatile running backs in fantasy football and in the National 691 00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: Football League, but it seems like he is moving or 692 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: into that role of a Darren's Rolls typer maybe even 693 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: a Danny Woodhead with a lot more talent, while Jeremy 694 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: Hill becomes the featured back, the between the tackles, bruiser 695 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: and the goal lineback on a team under Hugh Jackson 696 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: that is gonna like to run the football. And you 697 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: could argue even this week coming into the Steelers game, 698 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 1: this is the centerpiece of their offense because A J. 699 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 1: Green is banking there. It is gonna give you, Michael mcgonn, 700 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: you could give us a Christmas wish list for I 701 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: feel like interceptions in fantasy for the quarterback does not 702 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: count enough. I mean, it's such an important part of football. 703 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: What's more important a passing touchdown and an NFL game 704 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: or an interception? What changes the game more? Well, an 705 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: interceptions generally change momentum more bingo, So I think an 706 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 1: interception should be the absolute value. They have a passing 707 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: touchdown a minus four. This is the leader's uh interception 708 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: leaders this season. This is a who's who list. Once 709 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: you get past Blake Bortles in your mind, look at 710 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,959 Speaker 1: some of these names here, Fellis, Andrew Yeah, Peyton Mannamed 711 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 1: Drew Brees. So true. So for me, for me, look, 712 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:17,359 Speaker 1: we played fantasy football because we like football, and so 713 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: I think it should just be a little bit more mirrored. 714 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,839 Speaker 1: I think guys like Jake Cutler should not be good 715 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 1: fantasy quarterbacks, and it's not a good quarterback in reality. 716 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: But you know what, Jake Cutler has been solid most 717 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: of the year in fantasy most of the year. But 718 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: if we counted his interceptions, how solid would Jake Cutler 719 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: really be? He would be and it would mirror more 720 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: like football now. But to piggyback on your point though, 721 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: that that should mean fumble should be a negative six. Wow, 722 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I don't know if i'd go that ball. 723 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: But I will say this in fantasy, if Marshawn lyn 724 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: Trun's for a hundred yards he gets ten points, I 725 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: think that's fair. A hundred yards really helps you win 726 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 1: a game. But with the quarterback position, it's so skewed. Okay, 727 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,240 Speaker 1: I mean he put up garbage points as a quarterback. 728 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: Woman Carson Palmer was a really a good play with 729 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,439 Speaker 1: fantasy garage with the Broncos back in like oh nine, 730 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 1: They're down forty two to ten and he just goes 731 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: out there winging. I think if you did that debt, 732 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: you'd have to almost increase touchdowns to six points because 733 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: because listen, I mean you looked at Jay Cutler right, 734 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,439 Speaker 1: how many interceptions you had eight team? I mean that's 735 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: negative what fantasy points? I mean, that's a lot. But 736 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,240 Speaker 1: if a guy stinks in reality and shrugs and shoulders 737 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: it doesn't look like he wants to be out there, 738 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 1: then maybe he should be good fantasy Craig would have 739 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 1: been a lousy fantasy quarterback. We'll go back to the 740 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: running back position and give us your fantasy wish list. 741 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,760 Speaker 1: I really want Alfred Morris to get goal line touches? 742 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 1: Is that too much to ask? Is it too much 743 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: to ask for for Washington's offense to get inside the 744 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: five yard line and not give it to Darrell Young 745 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 1: or toss it out to Royal Hellou? I mean, I 746 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 1: just want to know what Alfred moorees did to make 747 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 1: people angry, and I don't get it. He's so good 748 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,720 Speaker 1: between the twenties. He's been the most consistent thing about 749 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: that offense over the last couple of years, while r 750 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: G three has struggled. While they're shuffling in Colton McCoy 751 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: and Kirk Cousins and how old are scoring anymore exactly, 752 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: Thank you, Michael, because when you look at this career 753 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,320 Speaker 1: low two hundred and fifty three rushing, its tempt for 754 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: Alfred Moore. But this is the guy who goes out, 755 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 1: runs hard, picks up good yards, tough yards of this team. 756 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: It's gonna win a calendar year without a hundred yard 757 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 1: rushing game. I mean, it's it's insane. I don't under that, 758 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 1: and it's it's it's cross coaches. Do you remember his 759 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: rookie season. It was incredible, he was awesome. He was 760 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: one of the five best running backs in fantasy because 761 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: he was getting goldne And this is gone. It's cross coaches, 762 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: from Mike Shanahan to Jay Gruden that it's been the 763 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: same story, only great. And I know you've gotta get 764 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 1: to your guy. I only disagree with you on one point. 765 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: His rookie season, r G three was a threat to 766 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,280 Speaker 1: run the ball, and that makes a defense play eleven 767 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: on eleven. When you have a guy like Drew Bledsoe 768 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: at quarterback, you're not worried about Drew bled Soo running 769 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: read option on you're getting out. So they always had 770 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 1: an advantage strategically when r G three was on the field, 771 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: the statute sank. There you go, Drew. I don't know. 772 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 1: I just had a look. My one is gonna be 773 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch, stay weird, my man, Hey, listen the guy. Look. 774 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,399 Speaker 1: I get his postgame interviews rubbed some people the wrong 775 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: way in the media, but for me, Look, I've been 776 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 1: in the locker room. There's been guys who have been 777 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,720 Speaker 1: more combative. There have been guys that are more rude. 778 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 1: The fact that he gives you this weird answer, I 779 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: kind of like it. I think if you're writing a 780 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: game story, if you're writing an editorial, that's something that 781 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 1: you can actually still you. So I'm not really sure 782 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: what guys in the media getting all upset with Marshawn Lynch. 783 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: And the thing is, you know how you're gonna stay weird. 784 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,240 Speaker 1: You gotta stay in the league. I hope he doesn't retire. 785 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: I hope he stays with the Seattle Seahawks. I hope 786 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: he keeps doing what he's doing because look, three touches 787 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 1: this year. Uh and most importantly, he's third among all 788 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,359 Speaker 1: non quarterbacks in terms of fantasy scoring. He has been 789 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: an absolute beast. If you will, I know, I agree 790 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 1: with you. I think what makes him great somewhat is 791 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 1: his eccentricity. Seriously, because the football is a grind man. 792 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 1: These guys get started in April when you're running back. 793 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 1: He've been doing this since you were in the fifth grade. 794 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 1: You gotta do something keep it fresh. You know. Maybe 795 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 1: this keeps the game fresh for him and he does 796 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 1: things his own way. Can I make a one one 797 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,839 Speaker 1: wish for Marshawn Linson if he leaves Seattle, bring him 798 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 1: back to Oakland? Okay, bring Marshawn home, bring him back 799 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: to the coring him the Yankees was all right? Listen. 800 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,720 Speaker 1: Coming up, we have a Fantasy Live White Elephant Gift 801 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: exchange Fantasy style.

Look, I think 823 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,320 Speaker 1: Tony Romo is he's a He's a good fantasy quarterback. 824 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,839 Speaker 1: This year he's been an outstanding regular quarterback. You show 825 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 1: what the Cowboys have done. But in terms of a keeper, 826 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. There's so many quarterbacks out there you 827 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 1: can go get. I mean Romos, the guy who's always 828 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,840 Speaker 1: been one of those fringe to be one kind of 829 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: low TWOB one high Q two, A guy that you 830 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: don't mind it on your team, a guy that's gonna 831 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,439 Speaker 1: produce for you. But in terms of using a keeper 832 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,240 Speaker 1: spot on him, there are a lot of other players 833 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: I would rather use a keeper spot on, especially because 834 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: Romo is the guy will be hanging around literally death 835 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,800 Speaker 1: taxes Tony Romo in the ninth round. That's how it works. 836 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 1: So I'm just not gonna use a keeper spot on 837 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,800 Speaker 1: the guy. So very good that one is yours. You know, 838 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna hold on to this one, all right. Cool. 839 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,439 Speaker 1: That means you're up and I am up. All right, 840 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: you know, red gold, all right, here we go, we'll go. 841 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: We'll keep it going here with the red boxes. Uh, 842 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 1: what are this? It is, Sir Thomas Patrick bradyet. In 843 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: other words, there you go, so talk about talk about 844 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: it here. Here's the thing about Tom Brady. I'll let 845 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 1: you hold on it alright. Tom Brady is getting up there. 846 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: And in terms of being a keeper, it really depends 847 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: on how many players you keep. If you're keeping five 848 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 1: players or more, tom Brady is likely to be a 849 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: guy that you're going to keep. James co it's not 850 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: happy about this topic because he dropped Tom Brady after 851 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: four weeks this year. But if you're in a league 852 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:07,879 Speaker 1: for you only keep one or two players. I think 853 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: because of his age, you're probably throwing him back into 854 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 1: the pool of available players, and I'd rather go with 855 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 1: the younger quarterback clearly, like like a Russell Wilson, like 856 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,959 Speaker 1: an Andrew Luck someone like that, so you can enjoy, 857 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 1: you can run around a little bit. He's got a 858 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 1: big head and big he's like an anime character. He does. 859 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 1: It's like a Toma Gucci to his side. Picture looks 860 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 1: like the Little Guy and David Goliaths. Maybe those Sunday 861 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: Claymation show is so actually Toma Gucci Brady, can I 862 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 1: actually take the bag here? Yes, I'm gonna go with 863 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 1: the bag here. Let see you men? Wow, there's they 864 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: got the hairline wrong though, but yeah, I know. And 865 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 1: it's got the birthmarks. With the birthmark, what do you think, Harrison, 866 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,920 Speaker 1: I think he looks like he has Jimmy Graham's. You 867 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 1: know what, I'm okay with keeping Drew Brees. I'm okay 868 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: with it, but I'm kind of leaning towards your analysis 869 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 1: with Tom Brady depends on how many keepers you have. 870 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: If you only have a couple of keepers, I wouldn't 871 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: whatever James has done if you only have a couple 872 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: of keepers in your league, I would not keep Drew Brees. 873 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: That said, if you get penalized whatever draft pick you 874 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: do in your league, and you were able to get 875 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:30,480 Speaker 1: Drew Brees in the fifth round or lower, than I 876 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 1: would keep him. I think. I think back well, Drew 877 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 1: Brees is really coming off of a hell of season, 878 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: and even then, he's been pretty good. He's gonna be 879 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 1: a top one or two round pick next year. So yeah, 880 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 1: I could see I could see him being keeps stealing him. 881 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna steal it. My only 882 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 1: concern about Drew Brees, not this doll, is that it 883 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 1: will be year fifteen for him coming up at some point. 884 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: It is amazing alright, alright, so even on the front 885 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,240 Speaker 1: side year so we're in America, can see my chiefs, 886 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 1: jurors or sweater here. This is ridiculous media medium. Actually, 887 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:14,760 Speaker 1: oh boy, what is this? Is this? Billy Bronco? Yeah, alright, 888 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 1: so Molly, I think the real question here and really 889 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 1: to all you guys, Peyton Manning, is he somebody want 890 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: to keep after what we've seen after watching Monday night 891 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 1: football against the Bengals where he got picked off how 892 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 1: many times one? I don't That's what I have to say. 893 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 1: At the same storyline we say every year, Peyton Manning 894 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. I know we're not there yet, but 895 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,959 Speaker 1: we're getting closer. I don't trust at this point. Maybe 896 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: it's a victim of last week. I'd probably go st 897 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,879 Speaker 1: j Anderson. Peyton Manning will be thirty nine years old 898 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,280 Speaker 1: next season, and look, there's not a lot of quarterbacks 899 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,839 Speaker 1: in NFL history that excelled thirty nine and older. Yeah, 900 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 1: you're absolutely right. So is it my turn? Yes? It's amazing. 901 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: Nobody's kept anybody so next to you guys to get 902 00:43:56,160 --> 00:44:10,919 Speaker 1: a get of the month. Yeah, Michael Fabiano's I didn't 903 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 1: know you like that. Man, I haven't looked.
