What's going on, Harrison? How you doing, 12 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: pal Fabs? You look great, You smell great. I don't 13 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 1: feel great, though, you don't really look great. I'm lying. Yeah, thanks. 14 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: But just like we've already, just like we've had the 15 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, we're gonna have a special guest 16 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 1: with us today, Jim Nance, Voice of CBS Sports, and 17 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna to quote one of our colleagues, Dave Damnachek, 18 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: We're gonna kibits about the fantasy game. Big surprises in 19 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: week one. Of course, we'll look ahead to week two. 20 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: We got stardoms, Sidhams. Do you press the panic button 21 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: on a few guys? We got a lot to get to, 22 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: But I think the best thing is to start with 23 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: the headlines today. Yeah, and Arian Foster back at Texans 24 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: practice today. That's big news because fantasy owners certainly missed 25 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: him in week one, especially if you didn't go out 26 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: in handcuff him with a bentait or Derek Ward. Uh, 27 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: You're running back position was left a little bit thin. 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: But Foster did take the normal Wednesday load for a starter. 29 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: Recording Gary Kubiak in it looks like he'll be back 30 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: on the field to face the Dolphins. So if you 31 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: have Arian Foster, continue to monitor his status throughout the week. 32 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: He looks like a go right now and ben take 33 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: Derek Ward likely back to fantasy benches in week two, 34 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: borrowing any setbacks. Well, let's let's get into a little 35 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: Texans here. I don't like that matchup for Arian Foster. 36 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: I like the Dolphins front seven. I think they're gonna 37 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: be ticked off about the way the game against the 38 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: Pats went I've said all along, I think the Dolphins 39 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: defense will be a top ten or twelve defense this year. Uh. 40 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: I don't like that matchup for Foster. You know what, 41 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: Arian Foster is the guy that you don't bench. Maybe 42 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,239 Speaker 1: the matchup isn't as favorable as it could be. I'm 43 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: not sold on the Dolphins defense just yet. I mean, 44 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: they showed me nothing on Monday night. Of course it 45 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: is they the Patriots and Tom Brady, and they spread 46 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: the ball out and really the running game didn't do much. 47 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: Ben Jarvis Greeno's not much going there. Danny Woodhead actually 48 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: led the Patriots and carries the fourteen law firm had seven. 49 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: But Aaron Foster, you just don't bench him. And I'm 50 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: not saying anything that anybody doesn't know already. Well, let 51 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: me press you on that issue, because if you look 52 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: through the prism of the fact that he practiced today, 53 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: then I completely agree with you. But let's say he's 54 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,399 Speaker 1: gets he gets a little sore in this later on 55 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: tonight and in the morning, and Kubiak sits him tomorrow. Well, 56 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 1: that's that's exactly what I said. You gotta watch his 57 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: status throughout the week and see what happens. But right now, 58 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: as Kubiak said in his quote, uh, you know, everything 59 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: was positive. He's going to play if he can be 60 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: out there. If he practiced today in the starters workload, 61 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: I see no reason why he shouldn't be able to 62 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: go in a week two. But again, hamstring injuries can 63 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: be a little bit tricks, so you have to pay 64 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: attention to monitor status. Okay, so if he practices, you 65 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,119 Speaker 1: obviously start him. Let's let's just go ahead and play 66 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: the scenario out where he doesn't practice again or he 67 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: has a little bit of a setback. The old question 68 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: of Ben Tate. And I called the old question because 69 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: fantasy owners have been dealing with this for the last 70 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: week and half. Bent Tate versus Derek Ward. It's beent Tate. Uh, 71 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: And we said it was Bent Tate even though Derek 72 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: Ward was second on the depth chart last week, just 73 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: based on upside, even though Derek Word got a touchdowns exactly, 74 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: but put the ball on. Bent had so many more 75 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: carries than Derek Word. He's explosive. This is a guy 76 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: who they really liked coming out of Auburn a couple 77 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: of years ago, but then he was hurting his rookie season. 78 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: So uh, if Foster is an I goo, which right 79 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: now it looks like he will be okay to go. Uh, 80 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: then Tate steps in. I think maybe you play Foster 81 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: as a flex potentially, but that's it, and that's really 82 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: if you're hurting at that position. You know, Tate average 83 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: seven point two yards per carrying the preseason four point 84 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: eight in Week one. Generally, fantasy owners aren't looking at 85 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: yards per carry because that doesn't give you any points. 86 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: But you should know, you should certainly because it definitely 87 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: shows your explosiveness. And Kubiak is gonna lean on the 88 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: guy that can hit the home run unless Tate starts 89 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: putting the ball in the carpet. I'll Steve Slaton a 90 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: couple of years ago. Yeah, and again Bentate to me, clearly, 91 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: the handcuff there as long as he holds onto the 92 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: football when Foster is out. If Foster hopefully Foster won't 93 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: be out again this season, but if Foster has any 94 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: sort of setback, Tate needs to hold onto the football. 95 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: If he does, he's going to keep the number two roll. 96 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: Another big guy or a big name is Hakim Knicks, 97 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: Keem Knicks. Uh. You can make the argument a top 98 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: five wide receiver fantasy wise says he'll play versus the Rams. Yeah, 99 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: he said that he doesn't see himself missing any time. 100 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: And I still think this is sort of a wait 101 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: and see process. The one thing that's a risky with 102 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: the Keem Knicks as he plays on Monday night. So 103 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: if he gets out in the warm ups and uh, 104 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: he's not feeling okay, then you're in trouble. So if 105 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: you have robbed roster depth, but you know, maybe you 106 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: you you go out and you grab someone like a 107 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: dominant Hickson sort of as a handcuff, which sometimes on 108 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: a Monday night you have to do that sort of thing. 109 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: At the wide re super position. It's hard to bench Nick's, 110 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: especially if it looks like he's going to play because 111 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: to me, I mean I had him ranked fourth in 112 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: the preseason on NFL dot Com at the wide receiver spot. Uh, 113 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,799 Speaker 1: and he proved in Week one why he's that highly rated. 114 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: The kid is just awesome. Even if he's not fourth, 115 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: he's got to be in the discussion or heself that 116 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: they're six. He's up there. I don't think you bench Nick's, 117 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: but the debacle I think of the decision that rather 118 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 1: that you have to make is the Giants running game 119 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: was largely ineffective against the Redskins, and you can look 120 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: at that as a positive as Okay, that means Nick 121 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: is going to see more targets. Well, if the running 122 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: game is not effective, than Eli Manning's protection is gonna 123 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 1: break down. And if that happens, Nick's is not going 124 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: to have a good game. But do the Rams have 125 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: you know, that front four to push and actually put 126 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: some pressure on on Eli Manning. I mean that's a 127 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: question too. I don't think anyone expected the Redskins, uh, 128 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: you know, just looking back to Week one to do 129 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,239 Speaker 1: that to the Giants. Another headline is Marcedies Lewis didn't 130 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: practice and he's got a cat problem. Yeah, and I 131 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: would probably bench him regardless. Listen, Marcedes Lewis, and I 132 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: said this last week, he was never going to be 133 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: the same tight end that he was in two thousand 134 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: and ten, especially when the Jaguars released David Garard. That 135 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: just wasn't gonna happen. He's not scoring ten touchdowns, maybe 136 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: he scores five this year. Remember before last season, Lewis 137 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: was basically very inept when it came to scoring touchdowns. 138 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: So Uh, is he going to be a bus this year? 139 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: There's a good chance he could be, especially if you 140 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 1: were considering him to be a number one in elite, 141 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: number one tight end as he was in two thousand ten. Guys, 142 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: it's just not gonna happen again. Well, and you talk 143 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,119 Speaker 1: about ten touchdowns, Look, that doesn't happen in NFL history. 144 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: Tight Ends don't go back to back ten touchdowns. I 145 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: don't care who you are, So for mar Cities Lewis 146 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: to get that kind of production, especially with McCown at quarterback, 147 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: I don't really see that happening. To be Devil's advocate 148 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: though he's playing the Jets. Jason went had a pretty 149 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: big game. No Jason Witten, He's no Jon Witten. And 150 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: you also have to remember something too. I mean, you 151 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: know Romo and Witt in that connection is is solid. 152 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: That is an established connection. McCown lewis not so much. 153 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: I agree that Jets do have trouble putting pressure on 154 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: quarterbacks unless they blitz. And the problem is when you 155 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: sell out, somebody's running free. Uh. That said, with the 156 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: injury and the fact that you know the point that 157 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: you make about Jason Winn, I would probably bench, Marcedes 158 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: Lewis anyway, all right, onto Calvin Johnson shoulder injury, he 159 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: did not practice. Yeah, he's actually got an ankle injury. 160 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: And uh, Calvin is I think he's gonna be fined. 161 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: He tweaked his ankle a little bit, uh in the 162 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: game against the Buccaneers, but there's no way he's gonna 163 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: miss this game against the Kansas City Chiefs. And listen, 164 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: I touted Matthew Stafford from day one and he did 165 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: nothing to disappointment in the first week of the season. 166 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: In fact, he could have scored four touchdowns if Brandon 167 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: Pettigrew hadn't dropped that ball in the end zone. So, uh, 168 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson, he'll be back, He'll be active. Start Matthew Stafford. 169 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: Unless you've got one of the five or six elite quarterbacks. 170 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: We're talking Michael Vick, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, 171 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers. He is right there now. He is right 172 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: after that level of guy. And if you watch that 173 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: Buccaneers Lions game, all they did Elliott was put Stafford 174 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: in the shotgun because he's number one effective out of 175 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: the shotgun, but number two. It also helps the fact 176 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: that the offensive line is not that great, right, so Stafford, 177 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: if he stays healthy, and there was a couple of 178 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: games where here a couple of times where he cramped 179 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: up and we are freaking out, like, all right, no, God, 180 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: not again. He is gonna be spot on this year 181 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: if he can stay healthy. Okay, the Detroit Free Press 182 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: has got Calvin Johnson also having a shoulder problem, so 183 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: the guys deamed up from one NFC wide receiver do another. Uh, 184 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: Dez Bryant did not practice, nor did Terrence Newman actually, 185 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: which is good news for the forty Niners, but then 186 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: you consider that the forty Niners don't have much in 187 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: terms of offense, and that was an ugly game. Our 188 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: boy Matt money Smith from uh NFL Fantasy Live actually 189 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: did that game, and I think probably had a hard 190 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: time staying awake because he wasn't sure if they were 191 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: gonna actually score touchdown on offense or get a first 192 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: down either one of these teams. They were terrible. Uh, 193 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: maybe Braylon Edwards is a sneaky three or a flex, 194 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: but I don't trust brilliant Newards. I never have outside 195 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: of that one year that he had in two thousand 196 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: seven with the Cleveland Browns. He's been majorly disappointment in 197 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: New York. Uh, San Francisco did nothing and listen to 198 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: Seahawks defense isn't any good. So Edwards maybe a sneaky 199 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: three because Terrence Newman's banged up in the Cowboys secondary 200 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: is just shot. I mean they just signed Frank Walker, 201 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: who Uh he actually played with Jason Carrot at one 202 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,439 Speaker 1: point in his career. But I don't trust Edwards very much. 203 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: You know, I have Edwards on my NFL Network team. 204 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: I'd play him as a wide receiver three. I think 205 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are so banged up in the secondary. Mike 206 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 1: Jenkins is obviously Newman is a problem. The safeties weren't 207 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: good to begin with. And no, by the way, Alan 208 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: Ball Orlando Scandrick was hurt in Week one. You know 209 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: the matchup is good. It's just to me, it's a 210 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: trust thing with ed Words. How about the flip side 211 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: of that, though, des Bryant, I mean, you're playing dest Brian, 212 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 1: there's no doubt about it. Uh. And he looked phenomenal 213 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: early in that game against the Jets, and then all 214 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: of a sudden, Durrell revers moves over and starts covering him, 215 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: he disappears, he has the cramps, his legs tighten up 216 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 1: on him a little bit. And at the end of 217 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: the game, I don't understand why Jason Garrett didn't take 218 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: him on. He couldn't even run. He was basically a 219 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: liability out in the field. And then you had Rome 220 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: Will have that interception at the end of the game. 221 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: And this is also two Cowboys fans who are a 222 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: little bit upset about the fact that their team blew 223 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: a big lead in the fourth quarter at the Meadowlands. 224 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: So but anyways, you start, you start, des Bryant, I'm 225 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: expecting big things from the Cowboys offense this weekend. I'll 226 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: tell you, well, We've got a meaty first segment here 227 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: with the injuries and stef Roy Williams. Chicago Bears did 228 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: not practice and that could hurt the Bears too. I 229 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: listened to Williams made a couple of plays. He's not 230 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: a big fantasy option. But do the Bears want to 231 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: go ahead and utilize the same strategy that the Packers 232 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: did with the Saints? Right? Spread the Saints out. They're 233 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: really good in the middle with their big guys, with 234 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: Shawn Rodgers, h in a breo Franklin, do you spread 235 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: them out and try to go downfield? Does Chicago have 236 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,439 Speaker 1: the talent? If Roy Williams is out, that's gonna hurt 237 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: their chances to do that. I think Forte on the 238 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 1: Saints linebackers is a much better matchup than Roy Williams. 239 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: I'm talking about in the passing game than Roy Williams 240 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: versus the Saints corners. Last little bit of news were 241 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: gonna get too before we're gonna break. Uh, and again 242 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: we have the voice of CBS Sports, Jim Nance coming up. Uh. 243 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: Marty Mornwigg said that it's on him that Jeremy Macklin 244 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: had a poor performance in Week one. While it's there, 245 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: you know what, it can't get any worse for Macklin 246 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: after last week who who was basically invisible, and he 247 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: said he felt fine, his legs were fresh. So I 248 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: would not be concerned about starting Macklin this week as 249 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: a as a three, especially in the game where that 250 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: looks like a shootout. Yes, talking completely Eagles Falcons. That 251 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: looks like it's gonna be a shooter and the Falcons 252 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,559 Speaker 1: defense did not do a very good job against Cutler 253 00:11:50,640 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 1: last week. Ravens four of six on third down conversion, 254 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: Ray ricep What's out? Why to the left? Tory Smith 255 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: Live is a right Flacco from the guns steps up 256 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: pup s wats throats to step Rice five yard line, 257 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: turns the corner and touch down.

Michael. 265 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: I'm an avid fantasy fan because of you. But really, 266 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: let's put the credit where it belongs. Well, you know what, 267 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: years ago, when I used to work for CBS, I 268 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: met Jay Glazer, who is now you know, the big 269 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: man on campus at Fox Sports. Jay introduced me to 270 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: jim and I had this idea about putting a celebrity 271 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: fantasy football league together. Uh, you know, and Jimmy has 272 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: been great about it. He got involved in it. We 273 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: had Dan Marino and Randy Cross and Phil Sam's and 274 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: Bonnie Bernsting and Boomer Sisson and all the guys from CBS, 275 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 1: and we played in the Gridiron gur League for years. Uh. 276 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: And Jim, if if memory serves me correctly, I believe 277 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: you were the inaugural champion. Well, I think you're right. 278 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 1: I think I won the first Super Bowl. And the 279 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: key to that it was really was the early days 280 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: of fantasy football, and CBS Sports Line as it was 281 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 1: known at the time, posted our every move on its 282 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: home page, so it was trying to get people interested 283 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: in it. And uh, you know, every trade that you made, 284 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: every roster move that you you also made, was was 285 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: there fully exposed for people to monitor it as the 286 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: season went along, So there was a little bit of 287 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 1: pressure and and uh and the folks were you know 288 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: that at that at that site, we're trying enough to 289 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: put up a lot of charity money to the winners, 290 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: so you know, it made a lot of equal happy, 291 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: so we're really worthy clauses profited in the end. Yeah, 292 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: and you've been playing fantasy football now for several years. 293 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: Even though now I'm with the NFL, we still playing 294 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: Elite Together, which is appropriately called the Masters, Uh for 295 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: Jim's favorite golf tournament, which is on CBS Sports every year. 296 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: And you have ray Rice on that team, and we 297 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: brought you in with a little Ray Rice clip there. 298 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: You had to love what you saw from him, and 299 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: you did that game. So let me ask you a question. 300 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: Were you cheering a little bit in the press box 301 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: but no one was watching when a Ray Rex was 302 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: going off for your fantasy team? Come on, my man. Never, 303 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: I'm just getting with you. I'm just kidding, But I 304 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: will tell you I did one of the dumbest things 305 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: of all time in my fantasy history. Okay, you know 306 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: that you're going into the game the Steelers. You know 307 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: all the stats. Last year they yielded sixty two yards 308 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: rushing a game. They really contain Ray and both Paul 309 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: three of the matchups last year pass he had a 310 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: key bumble in the playoff game. So I received word 311 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: about ninety minutes that is the last time I can 312 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: really set the roster before before we're really down the 313 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: business and and going through all the pre production elements, 314 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: and I saw where Arian Foster had been binged. So 315 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: I thought, you know, Ben Tad he's on my roster. 316 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: I need to put Ben Tate in the lineup. Now, 317 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: who am I going to take out? Do I take 318 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: out Ray Rice against the Steeler defense or Felix Jones, 319 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: who I really fellow along. I was going to have 320 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: a breakout here, so I pulled. I pulled Ray Rice. 321 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: Eight scores thirty. Now Ben Tate, you know, has a 322 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: heck of a game, scored seventeen points. Unfortunately, I surrendered 323 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: thirteen points in that roster move. I ended up going 324 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: against still Simms last week and I lost by ten. 325 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: So had I've not seen that a little bit of news, 326 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: I would have defeated by my booth mate. But it 327 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: said I lost. Speaking of your booth mate, Jim, You've 328 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: got San Diego in New England this week, and we 329 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: all saw what Tom Brady did Monday night. It was 330 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: almost painful to watch. If you're watching the Dolphins back 331 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: for do you see New England doing that to San Diego. 332 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you're talking about one of the top ten 333 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: passing performances in the history of the NFL. So I 334 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna come around every week. You know, 335 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: I'd be surprised if you see another five performance the 336 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: rest of the season by anybody. But I mean it 337 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: was you know, it was Brady at his best, and 338 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: I found it interesting that he was still even with 339 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: that performance was rated by the new Quarterbacking System on ESPN. 340 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: He was rated at the third best quarterback of the weekend. 341 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: I'd like to ask the best quarterback every week? Baised 342 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: on that? You bet? Yeah, No, I mean no doubt 343 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: about that. I want to know who was first and second? 344 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: It wasn't Ryan Fitzpatrick. Maybe yeah, it's fitzpatord one and uh, 345 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: you know, maybe it was you know, Cam Newton too, 346 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: but they all played at exceptional games, no question. It's 347 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: just you're talking about with Brady statistically, you know, one 348 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: of the best passing games in the history of the league. Well, 349 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: I think with Fitzpatrick, you know, the were touchdowns. He 350 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: did it so economically, didn't take a lot of past attempts, 351 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: he didn't throw it for a lot of yards, so 352 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: he got a lot of bang for the buck there. 353 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: And I think that Fitzpatrick was one of the real 354 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: surprises of Week one. Was there any other performance that 355 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,199 Speaker 1: really stuck out to you that surprise? You you know, 356 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: I think there's a there a lot that first week 357 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: as a real eye opener for people, and you know, 358 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: you say that's both good and bad. Um. You know, 359 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 1: I think that people that had quarterbacks like Matt Ryan 360 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: or Sam Brand for the same Wait a minute, man, 361 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: there was some performances, some numbers put up this weekend 362 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 1: by quarterback. What happened to you guys? Um? But you know, 363 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: I think that take was a real breakthrough. I don't 364 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: know how they're going to delegate that position when arians um. 365 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,719 Speaker 1: You know, I think Aaron Hernandez I didn't understand. And 366 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 1: I talked to to you, Michael the guru about this 367 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: before the drafts and everything. Why do people you know, 368 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: why do all these sites have You know, Aaron Hernandez 369 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: listens about the twentieth tied in. You knew that Brady 370 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: viewed him as like his favorite target and he plays 371 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: him like he's a wide receiver, and sure enough he 372 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 1: has an hundred yard game and a touchdown the first 373 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: time out. Yeah, Hernandez was fantastic. And I can't remember 374 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: the last time that one NFL team had two tight 375 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: ends that you can call viable fantasy starters weekend and 376 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: week out. Gronkowski was third and fantasy points among tight 377 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: ends in Week one, and Hernandez was number two. Now 378 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: I want to go back, Jim to the Steelers game. 379 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 1: Steeler fans did not like what they saw, and neither 380 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: did fantasy owners, especially if you had Ben Roethlisberger. Uh. 381 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: Do you worry about what you saw from the Steelers 382 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: defense especially? Uh? And do you expect him to bounce 383 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: back this weekend? What is a really favorable matchup against 384 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks. Oh, it is a super favorable matchup. 385 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 1: I mean you've got to think that, you know, you're 386 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 1: gonna see the exact opposite end of of of what 387 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: they showed in Baltimore. I mean, they they haven't been 388 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: blown out like that in the entire tom Lin Eia there, 389 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: and on both sides of the ball, they underperformed them 390 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: and they just ran into, you know, an avalanche. So 391 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 1: I've got to think that any and all things to 392 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 1: do with Pittsburgh this week might be a pretty smart play. Jim. 393 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you that I have the Cowboys at 394 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 1: Brown's season opener on DVD. It's you and Hank Stram 395 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: on the cloud. Yeah. Yeah, And I was thinking about 396 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,640 Speaker 1: that today when Michael said, we're gonna have you on, 397 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: and I wondered, and I want to get your thoughts. 398 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 1: What do you think the old timers like Hankstram and 399 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: these guys would think of fantasy football and it's just 400 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: explosion yet I don't think that they would completely grasp. 401 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: But I had the great pleasure of working with with 402 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: with coach Stram for about seven years overall between CBS 403 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: Radio and the CBS Television network, and um, you know, 404 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 1: he loved exciting football. Though I'll tell you that he 405 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 1: was an innovator. He would really, I think, be impressed 406 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: by by how successful it's become because you know, Hank 407 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: believed in in pushing the envelope and doing creative things. 408 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: It was reflected in his teams. Um. But you know, 409 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: Hank passed away now six seven years ago, and and 410 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 1: I don't think he ever really had any idea what 411 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: fantasy football was was like at the end because it 412 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: was really in its intency. Sure, well, you know you 413 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: and FABS have been playing a lead together for years. 414 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: Did you know, say, seven or eight years ago, that 415 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: it would turn into what it is today? No? I mean, 416 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: and I think it's been such a huge thing for 417 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 1: the league. It's neat to see the way the NFL 418 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: began to embrace it wholly about four or five years ago, 419 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: because there's no question that more people once you play it. 420 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: He's I've never had anybody who's played it, and I 421 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 1: don't want to participate next year. I didn't get into it. 422 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like fail proof. Um, but it's it's 423 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: it's just it's it's been addictive to people, and I 424 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: mean that's a usually a negative term, but it's turned 425 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 1: out to be a very I think the positive experience 426 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: for the fan. Let's let's look ahead to to this 427 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: huge game. This a f C game that you and 428 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 1: are gonna be doing, uh this weekend with the Patriots 429 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: and the Chargers. What do you look for in this game? Jim? 430 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: I mean the Chargers defense, uh, number one in the 431 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: league last season, looks pretty good in Week one, although 432 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: they gave up the special teams touchdown to Percy Harvin. 433 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: Is this gonna be a high scoring game because I 434 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 1: think fantasy owners are expecting that, uh. And which guys 435 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: on either side of the ball would you actually avoid 436 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: in fantasy leagues this week? Well, let me think about that. One. 437 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 1: First off from San Diego plays in New England. They've 438 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: had good success in the regular season, They've had several 439 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: of the games and and in fact, the Chargers have 440 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 1: won up there before when I've been a eyewitness to it. 441 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: They didn't win in the a f C title game 442 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: a few years back, but they snapped the like a 443 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: twenty one game regular season win streak that crossed over 444 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: two seasons, um, you know, several years back. So they 445 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: don't seem intimidated for whatever reason playing there, and he 446 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: has I would expect to be a high scoring game. 447 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the way Brady and the faith for it 448 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 1: to go after it, I'll see anyone slowing them down. 449 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: It seemed to me the Chargers were a little out 450 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: of sink lass week Now I'm watching that from afar um. 451 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: But you know, there was hard work to knock out 452 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: of Vikings team that you know, sure they had a 453 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: special team's tonchdown. You know, it's you've got to think 454 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: that you're looking at on the field and Sunday two 455 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 1: of the six teams that will make the a f 456 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: C playoff wager um. So when the games played Week two, 457 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: you think, okay, all right, so you lost that game, 458 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: Well you know come at the end of December that 459 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: that that game very well could be the difference make 460 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 1: between a one and a two seed, or a three 461 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: and a four or five and a six. I mean 462 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: it's gonna factor in somewhere down the line. I mean 463 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: for a regular seas game. I think it's hugely important. Yeah, 464 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: and talk about the absence of Chato Rosinko when he 465 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: actually went to the Patriots. People in the fantasy business 466 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: we're thinking this is a good move for him. He's 467 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: probably a number three Fantasy white out. You go from 468 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton to Tom Brady, a huge jump at quarterback. 469 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: We all knew he wasn't gonna be Randy Lost when 470 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: he joined the Patriots and had such great success. But 471 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 1: why do you think o Jo Sinka was so invisible 472 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: in the offense He was on the sideline to see 473 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: more than he was on the field. Well, he's you 474 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: know the one part of that game where you walk 475 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: out and say there's a question mark. It really is 476 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: what what what is his role in? You know in 477 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: the New England offense, I mean Brady throws for whatever 478 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: it was five and seventeen yards and Chad had fourteen 479 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 1: of it. So either they're gonna game plan him this 480 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:33,719 Speaker 1: weekend to get more into it, or you know, you know, 481 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: it could be it could be a short lived career 482 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: in New England, I have but I think every report 483 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: I've had, as they've been very excited about having him there, 484 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: is taking a little longer than they expected for him 485 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: to get the system down. But you know, I think 486 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: at the end of the year, jail which I think 487 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: it was going to be a big contributor to this team. 488 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 1: You know, Jim, the Chargers came out banged up from 489 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: Week one, Mike Tilbert is a little banged up and 490 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: being at the Patriots don't have a signature DeMarcus where 491 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: like pass rusher, and they're not really known for their 492 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,120 Speaker 1: pass rush. Is this the kind of game that you're 493 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: fully anticipating Phil Rivers to maybe put the ball in 494 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: the earth fifty times? Well he could, Uh, you know, 495 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 1: I think they would prefer even though you know they're 496 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 1: high octane. I think they preferred not to get in 497 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,640 Speaker 1: to attract meet out there. I do expect that they're 498 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: gonna look a lot sharper than they did this last week. 499 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 1: And you know, you look at some of the things 500 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 1: that they did Vincent Jackson barely had a game last 501 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: week that was surprising a lot of people. But you 502 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: know he would be you know, consistently at Santagy score 503 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: four every week. So, um, you know, what is it 504 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: with San Diego early in the season. I mean, they 505 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: need to defeat this uh, you know, this crazy habit 506 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: of having to spend the rest of your season trying 507 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: to catch up. And granted, they gotta win under the belt, 508 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: that's a good thing. If they could win this game, 509 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 1: very favorable schedule early in the year, they could actually 510 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: go off and half the kind of year we've all 511 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: been anticipating here for a full of years. All right, Jimmy, 512 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: one last question. Uh, and this is a conundrum that 513 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: a lot of fantasyers are facing right now. Do you 514 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: drop Peyton Manning or do you hold onto him? I think, unfortunately, 515 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: I think you got to drop him by the time 516 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: if he was ready, uh you know you're talking about 517 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: TV serviceable, probably not until about week ten, eleven or twelve. 518 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: And I don't know that you want to I personally 519 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: don't think he'll be back this year. I don't have 520 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 1: any knowledge of that. But I don't know why you'd 521 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: want to hold hold onto a roster spot there. I 522 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: think that would be very, very difficult to justify. All right, Jim, great, 523 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: great stuff, as always, my friend. Uh a fantasy paper 524 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 1: for you, go ahead tell me. Okay, this is based 525 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 1: off the game this weekend. If you're looking for a 526 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: tight end, not you know, and there aren't a lot 527 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: of secrets anymore out there. Everybody's pretty smart to it. 528 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 1: But Dixon, the tight end from Baltimore, is like a 529 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: receiver also, and they even threw a couple of screen 530 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: passes to him last week against Pittsburgh. I think he's 531 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: gonna be a very active part of that new young 532 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: Speedier Ravens offense, and I think you're gonna have a 533 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: huge year. So Ed Dixon would be my my fantasy 534 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: sleeper of the of the week to take. I like it. 535 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: I'm not sure about his matchup this week, but as 536 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: far as somebody you want to have on your roster, 537 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: that's that's a guy. Jim. I was mad at you 538 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: because I just realized I had to lean on Kyle 539 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: Wharton the rest of the year and not on Peyton Manning. 540 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 1: But you just made up for it with there you go, Jim, 541 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: Thank you great stuff as always, you know, tell Phil 542 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: and Lands and Tommy and the guys.

I'll tell you 565 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: that was impressive right there again, second week in a row, 566 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 1: bringing in this segment while playing the air drums, and 567 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: you got animated there for a second. To me like that, man, 568 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 1: that was good man. And we promised we would take 569 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: some calls. And we've got a guy on the line 570 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: right now. It's Joe from Jersey needs a little flex. Hell, Joe, 571 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: you with us, Joe, you're all right over there. This 572 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:19,199 Speaker 1: must be a tough question. Yeah, Joe, just Joe. Uh, 573 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: Joe thought we would choke on him. I guess I 574 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: don't know what happened. Well, well, you've been known to, 575 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: you know, have a few doozies. I did. I I 576 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: said bench Ray Rice, So I choked. I had some 577 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: good nuggets. But unfortunately, you guys would not let me 578 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: live down the fact that I said you consider it. 579 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: I didn't say you bench Ray Rice. No matter what 580 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: I said, if you have a great option, like I thought, 581 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: said Benson versus the Browns is a good option. He 582 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: ended up having a good game, just not great Rice. Exactly. 583 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: We have Kenneth in Georgia on the line. I've got 584 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: I've got a couple of questions for you all. Okay, 585 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: should I start ben john Was green Elis or Cedric Benson? Okay, 586 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Now go ahead. The second question, Um, should 587 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: I start Den Bryant Manningham or Johnny Knox? And Um, 588 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: I've got a tie end question for you too, all right, 589 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: Jermaine Gresham, Tony Gonzalez or Fred Davis. Well, I'm gonna 590 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: start off with the running back question, and I think 591 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: it's Cedric Benson without a doubt. Benjamin screen ellis saw 592 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: seven carries in a week one and now he's got 593 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: a tough match up against the Chargers were really good 594 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: against the run. So Benson to me is the guy, 595 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: especially based on the matchup against the Denver Broncos. And 596 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: look what Darren McFadden did against or not that Benson 597 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: is McFadden, but still the matchup is much better. And 598 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: remember Benson's a featured back. Green ellis not a feature 599 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 1: back in in fact, after last week he was the 600 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: second option in the backfield behind Danny Woodhead. The wide 601 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: receiver question, if you need one out of those three. 602 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: I'm going with des Bryant if you need to, I'm 603 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: going des Bryant and Manningham. I really like Manningham. He'll 604 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: see more targets on Monday Night, espec Sally. If a 605 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 1: Keem Nicks has some sort of setback where he can't play, 606 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: it looks like right now he will. But I go 607 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: Dez and manning him. You want to take that third question, 608 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: fred Davis, Well, I was actually gonna differ with you 609 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. I might lean towards manning him against 610 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: the Rams until we know for sure on Nicks on Titan. 611 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: I love the fred Davis matchup. Fred Davis looked really good. 612 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: And remember, guys, this is a tight end who a 613 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: couple of years ago when Chris cool He got injured, 614 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: he was lights out. He was fantastic. He I had 615 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: him on one of my fantasy teams and he was 616 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 1: just fantastic. This guy can catch the ball. Uh. Davis 617 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: is a good matchup against the Cardinals who gave up 618 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: I believe it was nine targets to Shocky and Olsen 619 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: for over a hundred yards. And and listen to Adrian Wilson, 620 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: Cardinals safety eleven years safety. He gets a lot of credit. 621 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: But Adrian Wilson is more playing the box guy. He's 622 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: not a great cover guy. And uh, if they try 623 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: to lock him up on Fred Davis, it's gonna be 624 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: bad news. Okay, And I think Joe is back Joe 625 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: in Jersey. Hope the cough has passed. Yeah, I got 626 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: a flexed question. I'm gonna eight man ppr Uh. I 627 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: got a Turner uh Santonio Holmes, uh, Kenny Britt and 628 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 1: uh Arian Foster now that he might play. Yeah, you 629 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: need just one of those, Yeah, just one. If Arrian 630 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: Foster is active, I play him. I mean there's no 631 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: doubt about it. I like the matchup with Turner. The 632 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: Eagles run defense. Their linebackers are not not good, not 633 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 1: good at all. So I like Turner, especially because he's 634 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: on the carpet back of the Georgia Dome. But if 635 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: Arian Foster is active, how do you not play him? 636 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna differ with you on that one. 637 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: I like Michael Turner better. I think the Eagles linebackers stink. 638 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: You made a great point there. It's on the carpet 639 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: in the Georgia Dome. I think Michael Turner has a 640 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: nice game this week. You know what I just realized. 641 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: What's up is that you are all on the Arian 642 00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: Foster bandwagon. I mean you were poopoo and him the 643 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: other If you drafted him with one of your first 644 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: three or four picks, he's back. You're gonna bench him? 645 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: No way, man, you gotta play him. I'm just putting 646 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: you gotta play him, Fabian. I'm just putting your feet 647 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: to the fire a little. Listen, man, my feet are 648 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 1: nice and cool. You gotta play Arian Foster. All right? 649 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: We got Eric and Florida with a trade question. Eric, 650 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: you with us? Yeah? Sure? So we got a four 651 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 1: teen person league. Uh, teams are finned, and I got 652 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: a Keen Knicks on you gouts touched on it earlier 653 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: in the show. Um, I am going to pick up 654 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: picks and uh I have a p high tower Beanie, 655 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 1: and then my receivers are Nicks and then Julio Joes. 656 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: That's where I'm fin Uh Is there so much use 657 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: for trade baits? I was thinking a p possibly I 658 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: got Fitzpatrick on my bench. I mean I don't I 659 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: don't want to trade Adrian Peterson higher or benchon or 660 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: perfect sell high guys right now, high tower, and I 661 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: think he's gonna have a very good season as long 662 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: as he doesn't fumble the ball. Benson could be the 663 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 1: guy that I would be trying to trade because you 664 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: know what, the Cincinnati Bengals don't have much in that offense. 665 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:15,719 Speaker 1: Defenses are gonna be stock in the box, and he's 666 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: not gonna have to play the Cleveland Browns or the 667 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: Denver Broncos every week either. So if you're gonna make 668 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: a deal there, uh, I go and try to put 669 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: Benson on the trade block and see what offers come 670 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: your way. And I mean if somebody looks at Benson's 671 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: numbers last week, I believe Benson had around nineteen fantasy 672 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: points a touchdown, so eighteen fantasy points very good. You 673 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: know you might get something for him. Yeah, you had 674 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: no doubt about that. And Julio Jones is the topic 675 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: of conversation too, because you know, last week, good opening game, 676 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: you know, not terrific, had a little bit over seven 677 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: seven fantasy points on NFL dot Com. But this week 678 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: is tough, Elliott. You could see a real shootout going 679 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: on in the in the Georgia Dome. But is he 680 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: gonna have to go up against Dominic Rogers Comarty this week. Uh, 681 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: you know, obviously they're gonna put nomb Likely on Roddy White. 682 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: Could be a tough matchup for the rookie. It's you know, 683 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: it's always tough to gauge that. We had Bucky Brooks 684 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: in here last week and he talked about, uh, you know, 685 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: Drrell Revas being on Dez Bryant and Cromarty on Miles Austin. 686 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: When they came out, it was actually Reevas on Miles 687 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: Austin until Dez Bryant burned for Marty and then they 688 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 1: switched it up. So that's the other thing. You know, 689 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: they can start a game one way and you just 690 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 1: never know. I think either way, I don't like Julio 691 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: Jones against Eagles. Yeah, I think it's a really tough matchup. 692 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,439 Speaker 1: Obviously you're gonna start Roddy White. I think Matt Ryan 693 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: bounces back, but Julio Jones scares me. This week, Sheldon 694 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: and Maryland speaking wide receivers, has a call on White. 695 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 1: That's a question rather Sheldon, what's going on? Man? What's 696 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: going on? Bro football thing? Man? So I think my 697 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: team kind of sucks. I got uh I got Manny Ham, 698 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: I have Um Burlason, Calvin Johnson, and also have um 699 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: what is the canarious war? So UM. I was wondering, 700 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 1: you know, if I could go ahead and put um, 701 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, burl liston in with Calvin Johnson, maybe you 702 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: know there'd be a tough match. I mean, we in 703 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 1: Kansas City, s idn't think he was really doing They 704 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 1: probably go off in Kansas City. So I didn't know 705 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: how how can I approach this? You know, I'd probably 706 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: go with Manningham over Burlison. I'd go c J and 707 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: UH and Manningham. You know, I got plaques to twelve 708 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 1: man and I got plastical Bursts as well. Blacks had 709 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: a nice game, I know, I know, I still like 710 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: manning him better. I like the matchup better, but Burrison 711 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: he was basically invisible though for that for that Cowboy 712 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: game in the first half, I remember sending it to 713 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: two down and saying, is Bursts playing? Where where is he? 714 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, at the end of 715 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: the game, the Jets had to throw the ball to 716 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: try to come back from that deficit, and Burlison found 717 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 1: the end zone. So I'm sorry Burst found the end zone. 718 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: Burst to me is a good three against the Jaguars 719 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: this weekend. But I think Manningham is the better play here. 720 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: I definitely think Manningham is a better play Burlston against 721 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: the Chief secondary. I don't think the chief secondary is 722 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: gonna give up a ton of big players. I know 723 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,040 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick had the four touchdowns, but he only threw for 724 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,879 Speaker 1: two bills. I definitely like manning him better. There, We've 725 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 1: got Andrew in Georgia with a question. Andrew, you hanging 726 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: out with us? How's it going? Man? Pretty good? Uh? 727 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,800 Speaker 1: I got a question for you. I'm in a regular 728 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: eight team, you know, standard scoring, non PPR, so you 729 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 1: can imagine pretty much every team is loaded. Um. I 730 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 1: did lose a tough one last week because I had to, 731 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: you know, kind of poor performances from Shawn Green, Vincent Jackson, 732 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 1: and uh Gore. Um. Basically I got I got a 733 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: couple of questions for you. First off, as do I 734 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: start Vic or Stafford this weekend? Man? How do you 735 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 1: bench Michael Vick? Yeah? As much as and listen, I've been, 736 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 1: I've been, you know, playing the flag into the Matthew 737 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,600 Speaker 1: Stafford fan club here. I mean, I love Stafford. All 738 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: preseason and he looked great last week. But unless you 739 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: have Michael Vick, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Philip Rivers, you 740 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: you can't it. You can't bench a guy like Matt Stafford. 741 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 1: But you do have Michael Vick, and he's going back 742 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 1: to Georgia and he's playing his old team and he's 743 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 1: gonna be motivated to have a huge stat line. To me, 744 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,800 Speaker 1: the only guy you benched Michael Vick fors Aaron Rodgers. 745 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 1: And if you have both of these guys on your team, 746 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,439 Speaker 1: I'd like to play in that league. Not to mention, 747 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 1: you'll be sick to your stomach if VIC picks up 748 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: four to your fifty yards and a touchdown on the 749 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: ground and we're not I love Stafford this week. I 750 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 1: think you start them, but not over a guy like 751 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,839 Speaker 1: Michael Vick. That's that's definitely a different animals. You said 752 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: you had another question besides Vic for Stafford. Yeah, the 753 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: deal with you know, with Seawan Green? I mean, do 754 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 1: I basically right now, I have uh, you know, my 755 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: running back slots. I have Ray right, Frank Gore, Forte, 756 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: and Green basically well with two flex spots with four Green, Um, 757 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,839 Speaker 1: do I I mean, do I leave Green out there 758 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,800 Speaker 1: or do I go get somebody like I know, you 759 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 1: know Tulbert is out there available, and you know I 760 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: also have Ryan Matthews on the bench, so I could 761 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: put both them out there. You know, you have a 762 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: eight team leagues, man, This is what happens when you're 763 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 1: when you're in eight team leagues. Honestly, I I and 764 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: I'm speaking out of both sides of my mouth here. 765 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 1: I think he keeps Shawn Green. I think Ladanian Tomlinson 766 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: was the best player on the field Sunday night. But 767 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 1: Sean Green. They're committed to him being a lead back 768 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 1: San Diego. They're committed to go on with the hot hand. 769 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: And I think in this case against Jacksonville, I would 770 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: take Sean Green and gamble that he's gonna get at 771 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: least a touchdown for you in eight yards or ninety 772 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: yards in the ground. There was a scenario that happened 773 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: with a lot of running backs, um that we were 774 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 1: expecting big things from in a week one. Shan Green 775 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: Jets fell behind, abandon the run. No, Sean Mario Broncos 776 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: fell behind, abandoned the run. The Garrett Blunt Buccaneers fell 777 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 1: behind abandon the run. They went basically two minute offense 778 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 1: in the whole second half of that contest. So one 779 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:57,240 Speaker 1: week does not make a guy a superstar or a bust. 780 00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,800 Speaker 1: Sean Green is going to see the Lions chair that 781 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 1: care for the Jets moving forward. I think he'll see 782 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 1: eighteen to twenty carries this week, as long as the 783 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 1: Jets don't fall behind. But I don't see that happening 784 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,320 Speaker 1: against the Jaguars. Sometimes you have to look at the 785 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,760 Speaker 1: match up and say, hey, the Jaguars held Chris Johnson 786 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 1: down to next to nothing last week, but c J 787 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 1: only had nine carries. Uh, and they don't have much 788 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: behind him. With Jovan Ringer hurt, Jamie Harper did very little. 789 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: I'm not that impressed with the Jaguars front seven where 790 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:23,880 Speaker 1: it's gonna scare me enough not to play a guy 791 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: like Seawan Green look and try to predict what's gonna 792 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: happen in the game. You think the Jets are gonna 793 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: fall behind the Jacksonville Jaguars with Luke mccollan throwing the football. 794 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 1: I do not, And that means ball control Towards the 795 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 1: end of the game in the second half, a lot 796 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:39,839 Speaker 1: of ground and pond with Shawn Green and he'll see 797 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: his targets, you bet or areas. We've got time for 798 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:48,359 Speaker 1: one more call. Here will take James in Wisconsin and uh, 799 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: just see what little question James has got for us. 800 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: James with us. Hey, guys, thanks for taking my call. 801 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 1: I've got two quick ones. You kind of touched on 802 00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: it a little bit on one of them. But I 803 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 1: need three out of these four running backs Chris Johnson, 804 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: Shawn Green, Cedric Benson and um um James Starks. You know, 805 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: I actually think starts as a nice sleeper this week. 806 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: I don't know that split. I don't know that i'd 807 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: play him over Green, only because Ryan Grant still in 808 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: the mix. Uh, if you need two of those four, 809 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: I'm going c j uh and I'm going Benson. If 810 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:26,919 Speaker 1: you need three of the four, third being a flex start, 811 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 1: I'm going Green. I do like Starks. I'm playing in 812 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,320 Speaker 1: one of my leagues as a flex play, but I 813 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 1: think Green offers a little more upside, just because featured 814 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 1: back versus guy who is going to share some carriage. 815 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:41,800 Speaker 1: And quickly, James, you had a second question, Yeah, just 816 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:50,399 Speaker 1: real quick, Eli or Flacco interceptions you because he's talking 817 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: about Eli Manny. I think it's easy to jump on 818 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: the Flacco bandwagon, but this week I say start Eli. 819 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: I agree with you, and look at Flacco's members at 820 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 1: home last year versus on the road. Very very good 821 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 1: on the road, sort of I'm sorry, very very good 822 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 1: at home and sort of okay on the road. The 823 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 1: Rams defense gave up a lot of fantasy points to 824 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 1: the Eagles offensive superstars last week. And uh, I like 825 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: Eli in this contest. If you like the NFL, you're 826 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,360 Speaker 1: going to like NFL Fantasy Live on Serial Sex on 827 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Radio. I'll tell you what if you like 828 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 1: late eighties hair rock, Smoker Machine, Oh that's great, man, 829 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 1: come to the right. Kntain, that's the wrong White Snake song. No, 830 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 1: that I know. But she is connected with well and 831 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 1: she was also in in another one of the one 832 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: of the ballots. She was in there too with the 833 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 1: two Jaguars at that love. We are yes, we are 834 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 1: just dating ourselves right now, terribly. Speaking of Tawny Kntain, 835 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 1: Scarlett Joe Answer put a very h Harrison just got 836 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 1: very excited. Spygate esque picture of herself was trending on Twitter. 837 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 1: She's trending she's trending on Twitter, So if you're on Twitter, 838 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 1: you might just go hang out for a while on Twitter. 839 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 1: That's all I can say there. Uh, waiver wire, you 840 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 1: know some leagues still processing that deal. Who are you 841 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,280 Speaker 1: looking at his top five guys to We can certainly 842 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 1: get through this quick and Cam Newton is going to 843 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: be right there. Of course. Listen, that was an unbelievable 844 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,839 Speaker 1: performance and he was active in very few fantasy leagues, 845 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 1: if if any at all. Uh, that were standard ten 846 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,919 Speaker 1: team leagues last week. Because he's a rookie quarterback making 847 00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:44,479 Speaker 1: the transition from college, a lot of question marks about 848 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: whether or not he was going to be able to 849 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 1: be a solid pro quarterback. And Week one, you think 850 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some growing pains while he played the 851 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,239 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals, and uh, the only pains felt in that 852 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: game were by the Cardinals defensive backs because they couldn't 853 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 1: catch up with Steve Smith. And Cam Newton's got a one. 854 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 1: He can run the ball. He's gonna give you some 855 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,399 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns. Is he going to be a legitimate number 856 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 1: one Fantasy starter throughout the season. No, He's definitely worth 857 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,959 Speaker 1: picking up off the waiver wire. Ryan Fitzpatrick is another 858 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: quarterback that you have to go out and grab four 859 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: touchdowns in week one. Good for the long term. I 860 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 1: don't know that I like Fitzpatrick's matchup this week, but 861 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: I agree with you Cadillac Williams with Steven Jackson's quad 862 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: problem exactly. And Cadillac is going to see the Lions 863 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: share that carries there, assuming Steven Jackson's out, which it 864 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: looks like he's going to be on Monday night. Uh. 865 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 1: And and what about Robert meet Him A couple of 866 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,880 Speaker 1: Saints guys, Robert meetch Um, not to be confused with 867 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: Bobby meets Him, former shortstop of the sitting behind Billy Sample, 868 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 1: Deverie Henderson, who I actually dropped justin fourth set in 869 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: my league. I know, huge risk, right, Uh for Deverie Henderson, 870 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:44,879 Speaker 1: I think that's a great waiver wire pickup. U. Rex 871 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: Grossman too, And we talked about him last week, man, 872 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 1: and you know what, it's not a joke. Rex Grossman. 873 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,840 Speaker 1: Look at his last four games as a starter for 874 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 1: the Washington Redskins, big time of fantasy numbers and great 875 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 1: last week three five yards, two touchdowns. He plays the 876 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 1: Cardinals this week, who just made cam Newton looked like 877 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: Randall Cunningham. So I think Grossman's a viable starter. I'm 878 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 1: playing him again for the second week in her own 879 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 1: in one of my leagues. Chad Henny, uh big week 880 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 1: one obviously because they were down. Not sure he's going 881 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 1: to do that again, but favorable matchup, Yeah, And I 882 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 1: do a fantasy points a lob rating on NFL dot com. 883 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 1: If you guys want to check it out, you can 884 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 1: check it out in our draft kit. Chad Henny has 885 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 1: got one of the most favorable schedules in the National 886 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 1: Football League at the quarterback position based on two thousand 887 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,360 Speaker 1: and ten Fantasy points. You want to talk about a sleeper, 888 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: look what he did against the Patriots. Matchup based starter, 889 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: Definitely pick him up off the waiver wire if you 890 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 1: need quarterback. Well, not to pump your writing up too 891 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 1: much here, but but you are doing a Stardom and 892 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 1: Sidham's column that's gonna run later today. We're gonna get 893 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,399 Speaker 1: into that in the second hour. Who do you want 894 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 1: to bench? Who do you want? I mean, you know, 895 00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 1: there's some good choices out there this week are interesting 896 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 1: choices that we had a couple of good calls. I 897 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,000 Speaker 1: thought the manning hand versus Dez Bryant was good. We 898 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,760 Speaker 1: take more calls, you bet. Stay with us.
