Speaker 4: Ryan Ferschinger and who needs to talk about Thursday night football?

17
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 4: Mike Carmen. I am ready to just move on past it.

18
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 4: After the Seahawks break my heart once again losen to

19
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 4: the Cowboys. So let's just look ahead to the matchups

20
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 4: because there's no reason for us to look at the

21
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 4: rearview mirror, none whatsoever.

22
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 5: Not at all, not even for the fantasy purposes that

23
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 5: I watch FLEX purports to bring.

24
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 3: There's more to life than just your fandom Dan, I.

25
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 5: Know the Seahawks broke your heart in moving to five

26
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 5: hundred here, but we had seventy six points. Dak Prescott's

27
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 5: a hero. Tony Pollard found the end zone. Sure he

28
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 5: barely fell forward in his twenty carries, it doesn't matter.

29
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,199
Speaker 5: He found the end zone and Ceedee. Lamb and DK

30
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 5: Metcalf emerged for a huge games. Particularly Metcalf. He'd been

31
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 5: on the side of a milk cart much of the year.

32
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 5: Remember he was my number one grievance a few weeks

33
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 5: ago when we did the things we hate about the

34
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 5: early part of the.

35
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 4: Season, matching the touchdown totals of the season of the

36
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 4: three something that you pointed out off the air, and

37
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 4: I was fully aware as well as a DK Metcalf

38
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 4: share owner in fantasy football dex that actually could have

39
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 4: even been better. Two ninety nine and three touchdowns. The

40
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 4: Tony Pollard touchdown run heck could have to pass. I mean,

41
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 4: for you know, it was a lateral that allowed Pauler

42
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 4: to get the run. But yeah, look bingo crazy like

43
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 4: numbers on Thursday night. Maybe it's a look ahead to

44
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 4: what we got in week thirteen.

45
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 3: It's not your fault, Dan.

46
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 4: But a huge bye week though this week. Tons of

47
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 4: buys in Week thirteen, so let's just get to it.

48
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 4: Mike Harmon's rankings at the quarterback, running back, and wide

49
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 4: receiver positions. Mike, let's start it out with your top

50
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 4: five quarterbacks for Week thirteen in the National Football League.

51
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 4: Whether it be daily fantasy or now you're hitting the

52
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 4: stretch run as the playoffs are on the horizon, Mike

53
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 4: Harmon's got for you is top five quarterbacks, running backs,

54
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 4: and wide receivers for the upcoming weekend. It's a big

55
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 4: week when it comes to Bays super high. Yes, it

56
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 4: is a huge week when it comes to buys, So

57
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 4: let's get to it. Mike Harmon's top five quarterbacks for

58
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 4: Week thirteen in the National Football League season without the Ravens, Bills, Bears, Raiders,

59
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 4: Vikings and Giants playing.

60
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 2: Mike take it away, So.

61
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 3: Tommy DeVito to rank this week?

62
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 5: And all right, we start the quarterback position to a

63
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 5: tongue of Iiloa. He's got the most generous defense against quarterbacks,

64
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 5: rolling up Washington, giving up twenty two a game, and

65
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 5: look for Miami looked for twoa to try to get

66
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 5: things right. Still a top five to MVP candidate. But

67
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 5: you know, all of a sudden, the turnovers are starting

68
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 5: to rack up a little bit. They get right here

69
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 5: in a game against Washington, Patrick Mahomes going up against

70
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 5: Green Bay. Maybe we saw some semblance of the offense

71
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 5: to come when they put up thirty one last week.

72
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 5: Opportunity here against the Green Bay second there we'll get

73
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 5: to one of his receivers a little bit where later

74
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 5: we got Brock Party going up against Philadelphia. They're the

75
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 5: second most generous team to opposing quarterbacks twenty two straight,

76
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 5: twenty two even per game, and we know we've got

77
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 5: all the full complement of weapons. This is a game,

78
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 5: you know, just like Thursday's game gave us a lot

79
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 5: of fireworks. I'm really excited to see what this one

80
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 5: gets down to. Right we're talking MVP talk. We're talking

81
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 5: trying to create separate ration to the top the NFC,

82
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 5: and certainly we look at that San Francisco offense that

83
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 5: expect them to put up some points here against Philadelphia,

84
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 5: much like we saw Buffalo Dude last week for at

85
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 5: least quite a while before things went awry. As we

86
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 5: go a little bit further down our depth chart, Jalen

87
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 5: Hurts on the other side against the forty nine ers,

88
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 5: you'd like a little bit of a faster start than

89
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 5: what we've seen thus far. Right, the first half's have

90
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 5: been a little wonky and wobbley, but the numbers have

91
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 5: been there in the end. You need some more Aj

92
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 5: Brown earlier.

93
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:36,679
Speaker 3: That's one of those.

94
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 5: And with the injuries that we've seen sustained in the

95
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 5: San Francisco Secondary, perhaps a little more daylight to be had.

96
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 5: And finally, Trevor Lawrence going up against Cincinnati trying to.

97
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 3: Get that rise up.

98
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 5: We've seen Calvin Ridley when Zay Jones available, he's been

99
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 5: a little more of a weapon for them. So look

100
00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 5: for some magic continue, especially with Cincinnati's offense being as

101
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 5: woeful as it is right now, just outside the top five.

102
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 5: We make our special mention, as we do each and

103
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 5: every week, now, for CJ.

104
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,559
Speaker 3: Stroud. His eminence in his rise.

105
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 5: Denver's been created a lot of turnovers of late Dan,

106
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 5: but eventually, you know, you regress at least a little bit,

107
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 5: and let's face it, even in the toughest to match up,

108
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 5: Stroud has come to play sure.

109
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 2: Absolutely. I do want to mention something about Mahomes.

110
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 4: It's crazy because you know, the Chiefs and Packers aren't

111
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 4: playing each other year in and year out, but the

112
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 4: schedule allowed them to play a game because of the

113
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 4: added game, I believe recently, and we hadn't gotten a

114
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 4: lot of mahomes against Rogers, but we're getting like mahomes

115
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 4: against Love, you know, like here, we've got it again

116
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 4: now on Sunday Night football. So this will be the

117
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 4: showdown and maybe it'll be going forward a rematch of

118
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,359
Speaker 4: Super Bowl One. So mahomes be interesting to see what

119
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 4: they do at Lambeau on Sunday night. All right, those

120
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 4: are Mike's top five quarterbacks. Now let's get to the

121
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 4: top five running backs for week thirteen.

122
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 5: All right, we'll go with the chalk off the jump.

123
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 5: Christian McCaffrey going up against Philadelphia. Look for him to

124
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 5: be active in the passing game. Alvin Kamara going up

125
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 5: against Detroit.

126
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 3: Same thing.

127
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 5: I'm looking for that five to seven receptions to get

128
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 5: things started, because, let's face it, Derek Carr is not

129
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 5: pushing the ball down the field, so we got to

130
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 5: take our obligate.

131
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 3: I saw a lot of cartoons about Derek Carr this week.

132
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 5: It's kind of weird that They're not just taking shots

133
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 5: at him in written form or in AISI form, but

134
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 5: no also in cartoon form in terms of his acumen

135
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 5: or lack thereof.

136
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 3: Down the field.

137
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 5: As we go a little bit further, Rashod White, I'm

138
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 5: about a little bit of a price shot here inside

139
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 5: the top five going up against the Carolina defense, Dereck

140
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 5: Henry against Indianapolis. He's not quite dead yet, right, he

141
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 5: has not found the edge of that cliff like so

142
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 5: many anticipated. And then because of the late week information

143
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 5: on the injury to Jonathan Taylor, welcome back to the

144
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 5: top five, Zach Moss.

145
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:03,359
Speaker 2: How about that.

146
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 4: Let's go fire him up. And there was a time

147
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 4: when you know, Taylor came back. They were kind of

148
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 4: two headed monstering that thing.

149
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 2: You know. Yeah, it was for a bit, sure, Yeah,

150
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 2: But then Moss, you know, fell off.

151
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,559
Speaker 4: And I guess those who were lazy enough and didn't

152
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 4: follow their rosters and just kept him on their bench

153
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 4: or maybe just one of the handcuff are now reaping

154
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 4: those rewards of keeping Zach Moss around.

155
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 2: I also find Camara interesting.

156
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 4: Because that Lions Saints game is one that I think

157
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 4: the Lions are going to turn it around. Mike, But

158
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 4: I just I'm not necessarily sure, and the Saints sure

159
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 4: do rely heavily with you know, with the Kamara out

160
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 4: of the backfield, and so an interesting play coming up

161
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 4: in week thirteen.

162
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,679
Speaker 3: On the road. Look, we've talked about it for weeks.

163
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 5: I am not a buyer of the Lions overall for

164
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 5: fantasy purposes. We've got plenty of guys that find their

165
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 5: way into the line. A couple of cautionary tales for

166
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 5: this week, for sure, But you know, New Orleans, the

167
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 5: defense still has some pride. We have our issues with

168
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 5: how the offense has been run and had. Certainly everybody's

169
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 5: taking their shots at Dennis Allen and predicting him to

170
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 5: be one of what another seven coaches that'll walk the

171
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 5: plank before this is all said and done. Yeah, but

172
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 5: for the Lions on the road, much safer environment there

173
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 5: in Detroit than away from home.

174
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 4: All Right, Those are Mike's top five running backs CMC

175
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 4: Kamara with Shad White, Dereck Henry and Zach Moss. Let's

176
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 4: get to the top five wide receivers for the upcoming weekend.

177
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 3: Ye obligatory, sir, mix a lot references.

178
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:35,839
Speaker 5: You've got to double up you got your two A

179
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 5: tongue of I Loo as the top quarterback. Well, we'll

180
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 5: take Tyreek Hill as our top wide receiver against that

181
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 5: woeful Washington secondary.

182
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 3: A'man ross Saint Brown.

183
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 5: As much as I may not be a buyer in Detroit, overall,

184
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 5: this guy seems to find the ball.

185
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 3: He's a bit of a magnet here opportunity.

186
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 5: Even if they're short gains, they add up and bpr leagues,

187
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 5: we know how quickly things can escalate when you get

188
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 5: into that eight to ten catch range, even if they're

189
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 5: minimal gains. That's a nice hefty pet point total for you.

190
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 5: I don't know that I agree with it, but that's

191
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 5: the standard we're living to here. Dan Byer as we

192
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 5: go forward, Deebo Samuel going up against Philly. It was

193
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 5: a coin flip between him and Brandon Ayuk, and he

194
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 5: went out for me here in terms of getting fed,

195
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 5: because I think you're going to see him active in

196
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 5: some of the end around game and a little bit

197
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 5: of creativity. Michael Pittman going up against the Tennessee Titans,

198
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 5: Garterner Minshew time once again, and then finally Keenan Allen.

199
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 5: Look that offense may not find.

200
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 3: The end zone.

201
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 5: It may sputter at times, but damn it, that guy

202
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 5: finds the ball and he will again at Bill Belichick

203
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,079
Speaker 5: anytime he praises you, Right, you don't get you don't

204
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 5: get in a lot of effusive praise out of Bill Belichick,

205
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 5: except usually when it comes to special teams guys punters.

206
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 5: But this week in his comments addressing Herbert and Keenan

207
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 5: Allen Man, you know, he was about as glowing as

208
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 5: Bill Belichick gets, which means not much, but again for him,

209
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 5: it's glowing.

210
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, except maybe if he wants that job, you know, Yeah, Yeah,

211
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 4: there's that aspect.

212
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,079
Speaker 5: That's really special. And you know Staley's really done of

213
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 5: a dissert. No, he didn't say.

214
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 2: That that would have been awesome.

215
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 5: Well, waiting for it, you know, waiting for one of

216
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,439
Speaker 5: the Look, this has been a year where we've had

217
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 5: a lot of coaches kind of talk out of pocket

218
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 5: about stuff.

219
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, wouldn't it be great? And Bill suddenly did that too.

220
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 4: Keenan Allen number five, number four, Michael Pittman and I

221
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 4: know Ryan Bershing are a normal executive producers, not with us.

222
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 4: Patrick Sweek is with us for the next couple of weeks.

223
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 4: But I know Bursch is high and Michael Pittman, I

224
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 4: know you like Michael Pittman. There's stretch that they've got

225
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 4: now and you'd have to take. Heck, maybe even more

226
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 4: so now with Jonathan Taylor out can rely on him.

227
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 2: So that is going to be an intriguing.

228
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 4: Play and I think a beneficial play here on down

229
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 4: the stretch so that they are your top five wide

230
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,839
Speaker 4: receivers four Week thirteen. Get Mike on Twitter at swollen Doome,

231
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 4: hit me up at Dan Byron Fox.

232
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 2: We are not done. We've got a long way to go.

233
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 4: I'll be in later with giving you one reason to

234
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 4: start and bench a guy and also some survivor picks.

235
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 2: Even though I got knocked out of my.

236
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 4: Survivor pool, I'm going to continue the tradition because I

237
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,719
Speaker 4: feel it's the way that should go and hopefully i'll

238
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 4: lose another one that. Don't kick myself for using the

239
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 4: Patriots last week, but coming up next that's my own

240
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 4: problems that I'm giving you.

241
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 3: Hey, no, it's a therapy session here, David.

242
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 2: That's what we do.

243
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 4: You go sit on the couch and just talk about

244
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 4: why a ten to seven loss to the Giants was

245
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 4: so crushing to me in week twelve, But no, I

246
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 4: think there's some good value in Survivor picks in week

247
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 4: thirteen and some good matchups and some teams that you

248
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 4: probably didn't pick but have prime opportunities to get a W.

249
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 4: So we'll dive into that a bit later. But Mike's

250
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 4: hop plays Cold Soares and then just coming up next

251
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 4: here on I Want Your Flex Hit Mike up at

252
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 4: Swollen Dome, find me at dan Byer on Fox. Today's

253
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 4: executive producer is Patrick. Welcome back to Who I Want

254
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 4: Your Flex. It's now time for the Cold Source Ninjas,

255
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 4: and we start off with the hot plays, the guys

256
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 4: that didn't make Mike's top five, but guys that you

257
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 4: should get in your lineup because of good matchups, maybe

258
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,079
Speaker 4: good weather, maybe you just want to play him this week.

259
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 2: Mike, who are your hot plays for Week thirteen?

260
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 3: We started the quarterback position.

261
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 5: Get a little bit frisky with Kyler Murray going up

262
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 5: against the Pittsburgh Steel Sure, he's going to have to

263
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 5: try to avoid TJ. Watt and that defensive front, but

264
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 5: there's opportunity in that secondary. Not quite sure where I'm

265
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 5: finding the love outside of Trey McBride, but looking for

266
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 5: him to make some plays with his legs. And let's

267
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 5: not forget in a lot of these fantasy matchups, that's

268
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 5: what's been the difference maker for quarterbacks these last couple

269
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 5: of years, as the shift of the position has happened.

270
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 5: On the other side, you got Sam Howell who's just

271
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 5: winging the ball all over the place. Is it going

272
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 5: to be pretty not always? Are you going to see

273
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 5: some turnovers? Hell yeah, but against Miami going to keep

274
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 5: slinging it down the fieldptun Tunities do not. They are

275
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 5: a team that gives up about seventeen eighteen a game.

276
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 5: So an opportunity here to play Austin Eckler against New England.

277
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 5: Am I expecting fireworks? No, they don't run the ball

278
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 5: particularly well, But this is where we get our PPR

279
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 5: love and the dumpoffs from Justin Herbert. I got a

280
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 5: bad feeling for this game overall that somehow New England

281
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 5: behind Bailey Zappi and some miraculous band of Merriman win

282
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 5: this game. But that's more just a fever dream than

283
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 5: anything else. But for now, I'm going to look at

284
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 5: Austin Eckler and the opportunity to pile up the cheap

285
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 5: PPR points. B Jhon Robinson looks like they saved him

286
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 5: for good and fantasy owners can now play him with

287
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 5: some confidence.

288
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 2: Here.

289
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 5: Look the Jets stink and the defense has now been

290
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 5: exposed a bit more again, running receiving, looking for big opportunities.

291
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 5: They've given up the sixth most fantasy points per game

292
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 5: to opposing running backs this year. And I look for

293
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:02,839
Speaker 5: Bjhon Robinson and the South leading Falcons. Does that sound

294
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 5: right coming out of my mountain?

295
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 2: So weird?

296
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's very strange considering how terribly they've played in spurts.

297
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,079
Speaker 5: But here's an opportunity, and Robinson taken on a bigger

298
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 5: workload like we all wanted, just at the right time.

299
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 5: You came in just when we needed your most another

300
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 5: running back. When we look at the that Patriots Chargers game,

301
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 5: let's go back to Stevenson. You know we did that

302
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 5: bit on Wednesday, Dan, which is inspired work by you

303
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 5: of how many teams do we have in the NFL

304
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 5: with either one or zero fantasy players?

305
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 3: Dah, there's your one fantasy player for the New England Patriots.

306
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 3: Let's go.

307
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 5: I've cited that about nine times walking around talking to people,

308
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 5: So what kind of things do you do on the podcast, Like, well,

309
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 5: you know, we get we get creative time. Dan came

310
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 5: up with it and I started sounds like wow, and

311
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 5: then they started thinking about the teams. It became a

312
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 5: really good long discussion point. So good job by you.

313
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 5: Hopefully we got a couple of subscribers out of it

314
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 5: as well. Here on I watch Flex and then Nico

315
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 5: Collins going up against Denver last two games, he's got

316
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 5: fourteen catch for one hundred and sixty nine yards. He

317
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 5: and Tank Dell, who's back in practice, forming a nice

318
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 5: dynamic duo for CJ.

319
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 3: Stroud. I look for that to continue this week.

320
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 4: You know, you mentioned Kyler Murray and Trey McBride McBride

321
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 4: limited in the most recent injury report that we have

322
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 4: as we were taping it. So he's trending towards playing.

323
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 4: And obviously it's on the heels of Zach Ertz being released, right,

324
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 4: you know, ERT's coming off of IR and I know

325
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 4: Zach's probably your second favorite Ertz in the Ertz family, Mike.

326
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 3: That is right. How about being Julie Ertz fan, No

327
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 3: class about it.

328
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 4: But this is actually one release that I one hundred

329
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 4: percent and behind because remember zach Ertz was let go

330
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 4: you know, Philadelphia just a couple of short years ago.

331
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 4: Season wasn't really going anywhere. They traded them to Arizona

332
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 4: to be on a winner. Like think about like that,

333
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 4: not that you go because they were heading forward to

334
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 4: the playoffs, and you know, the Cardinals started off the

335
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 4: season unbeaten, and then what do you know, the next year,

336
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 4: the Eagles turn things around completely go to the super Bowl,

337
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: while Arts is you know, stuck in you know, Arizona

338
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 4: rehabbing his injuries and so good for zach Ertz, but

339
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 4: just to move this week, I don't know down the line,

340
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 4: if people are looking for tight ends, you know, wherever

341
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 4: he ends up, you'll have to look out for that.

342
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 4: But when you mentioned Kyler just made me think of

343
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 4: the Ertz release that happened on Thursday.

344
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 3: It is it's quite interesting.

345
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 5: Not to belabor the point too much here, Dan, but

346
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 5: I mean you're looking at the potential of him ending

347
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 5: up in Baltimore. Talk about you know what they're trying

348
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 5: to do post Mark Andrews and and maybe get a little.

349
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 3: Bit of a juice there.

350
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 5: But also you know, just that idea of maybe he

351
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 5: goes back right, Oddard's try trying to get right, and

352
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 5: as we again as we recorded the podcast, trending towards

353
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 5: maybe fighting his way back into the lineup, but certainly

354
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 5: intriguing to me.

355
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's an interesting story. I know.

356
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 4: The NFL network is all over it saying that, Hey,

357
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 4: even zach Ertz is like, I won't take a paycheck

358
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 4: this week. You guys just let me go, Like, all right, deal,

359
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 4: all right, let's get to your cold source.

360
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 2: Usually this is where the Cardinals sit.

361
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 3: Are there any yeah? This week?

362
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 2: Okay, not a lot of games, so yeah, cold source.

363
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:30,959
Speaker 4: The guys you don't want to touch, you don't want

364
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 4: to play, You don'tant anything to do with four week

365
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 4: thirteen in the NFL.

366
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 5: My man, it doesn't mean that we're not going big

367
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 5: game hunting right here. The first that I mentioned it

368
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 5: justin Herbert. A lot of name recognition, a lot of positivity,

369
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 5: tough matchup. New England might not do a lot of

370
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 5: the offensive things right, they can still come at you

371
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 5: defensively with some acumen. And let's face it, as much

372
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 5: as the Chargers have moved the ball in a bunch

373
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 5: of these games, not necessarily scoring touchdown, not finishing drives,

374
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 5: and I'm not looking for a big effort here yardage,

375
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 5: and then it's the wish and hope that you get

376
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:11,479
Speaker 5: that second touchdown. If you're banking on more than that,

377
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 5: I'd be looking at my other option on my bench.

378
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 5: Jared Goff going up against New Orleans on the road

379
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 5: in this one. They are four and a half point

380
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 5: favorites as we talk, and New Orleans we know sometimes

381
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 5: Derek Carr can't get out of his own way, so

382
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 5: you know, I'm not looking for a runaway and hide situation.

383
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,959
Speaker 5: And they do seem to warm up after a spell,

384
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 5: but he's been turnover prone of late. I don't know

385
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 5: that that necessarily curbs itself here, so a little bit nervous,

386
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 5: so I curbed my enthusiasm. Yeah, I just decided to

387
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 5: finish the joke. Cooper Cup going up against Cleveland only

388
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 5: thirteen targets the last three games. Just funny because I

389
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:53,199
Speaker 5: kind of like his quarterback as a counterintuitive thought process

390
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 5: for this week. But we'll get to that in a minute.

391
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 5: But for Cooper Cup, they target numbers haven't been there.

392
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 5: Staffords spreading the ball round, finding the other options.

393
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 3: AYJ.

394
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 5: Dillon against case. Sometimes you got to take the low

395
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 5: hanging fruit. He's the starter, he'll get some touches. What

396
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 5: have they done running the football this year? Nothing so

397
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 5: not banking on and suddenly a return to form. And

398
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 5: then I look at DeAndre Swift against San Francisco Dan

399
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 5: tough matchup. And you'll look with the last five games

400
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 5: twenty fifth to fifteenth, twenty fifth, eighth, twenty seventh, and

401
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 5: that's the fantasypros dot Com scoring at the running back position.

402
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 5: So we're looking at three times outside of RB two

403
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 5: territory in the last five weeks, and again go owing

404
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 5: to slow starts, the Eagles have figured it out and

405
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 5: it's really been a fascinating run from a straight football perspective.

406
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 5: From a fantasy perspective, it's been maddening.

407
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 4: Well, let's also look at it. Let's let's be honest.

408
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 4: The brotherly shove when they get down at the go line.

409
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 4: There are other teams that you can maybe you know,

410
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 4: manage some of that and say, well, at least our

411
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 4: team gets down there. And if they do get down there,

412
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 4: he's usually not going to get that call.

413
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 5: No, that's right, yeah, or it's going to be a

414
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 5: fake into the line jump pass or something that is

415
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 5: not a straight handoff. So yeah, you're absolutely right of

416
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 5: your worst worst night.

417
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 4: It really is, except if you have Galen Hurts on

418
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 4: your squad. All right, those are the cold source four

419
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 4: week thirteen. Now let's get to the ninjas. You know,

420
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 4: last week we gave Aaron Torres a tutorial about ninjas.

421
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 4: Patrick Sweek our executive producer, Patrick, do you know what

422
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 4: the ninjas on?

423
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 2: I want your flex are?

424
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 3: No, I do not enlighten me.

425
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 4: Okay, well, I think that it's almost self explanatory. And

426
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 4: again it's a history lesson, Mike, if you will, the

427
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 4: floor is yours to explain how ninjas came about.

428
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, we got a little bit of salty and the

429
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 5: term sleeper. We decided it was overused, oftentimes misused, right

430
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 5: because anybody that wasn't a top ten player was suddenly

431
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,479
Speaker 5: a sleeper. So then people could pat themselves on their

432
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 5: back saying, hey, I got it right. Every Well, no,

433
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,919
Speaker 5: there was still a guy that you would have started

434
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 5: based on traditional rankings, et cetera. So this is the

435
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 5: idea that these guys are popping out of the weeds

436
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 5: and might do a considerable amount of damage.

437
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm just almost like you can't see you don't

438
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 3: see him coming.

439
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 2: There's like whoa right behind me? Got it?

440
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 3: Yes, that's exactly it.

441
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, it's the daily fantasy of hey, there's a

442
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:30,239
Speaker 5: low valuation, maybe a big return. Maybe Again, it's a

443
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 5: matchup where on paper it looks rough, but you say

444
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 5: I could find a way. And that's where we start

445
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 5: at the quarterback position. I mentioned Matthew Stafford before. He's

446
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 5: our first ninja for this week against Cleveland. You say

447
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 5: that's a no fly territory. Wait, you just told me

448
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 5: that Cooper Cup is a guy that is a cold

449
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 5: soar right, But I got Pooka Nakua, and I got

450
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 5: Tyler Higbee, and I got that guy named Kyron Williams

451
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 5: that right now, I don't know what the hell that

452
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 5: deal is, but that guy's been on stuff, all right.

453
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 5: We're talking top seven finishes in virtually every game that

454
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 5: he's played this year. And then he comes back out

455
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 5: last week after missing time, going to the ir like

456
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,959
Speaker 5: a house of fire and looking for more of that,

457
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 5: both as a runner and as a receiver. Because maybe

458
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 5: this is where you know that strategy the Seahawks tried

459
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 5: to pull off with Michael Parsons works. Here's a free

460
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 5: release of Miles Garrett. So he's out of the play

461
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 5: trying to chase down and scare Matthew Stafford.

462
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you what in dental Ward's got a

463
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,719
Speaker 4: shoulder issue that could maybe keep him out and if anything,

464
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 4: may have him limited to that game against the Ram.

465
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 5: Can you do that in Steve Spurrier's voice, and now

466
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 5: Wart's got a shoulder that's.

467
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 3: My guy, that's what you call and callback here a long.

468
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 5: Time here Fox Sports Radio on the Eyewatch back Flex podcast.

469
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:56,160
Speaker 5: All right, how about Kenny Pickett against Arizona. Again, probably

470
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,199
Speaker 5: not going to start him in a standard league, but

471
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 5: when we're looking for daily you know, fantasy where maybe

472
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 5: you're throwing a buck in or maybe you got a

473
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 5: little pool with your friends, and I would add pickings

474
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 5: with him because certainly Deontay Johnson, I don't know how

475
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 5: much of the game plan they even gave him this

476
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 5: week after that fumble effort.

477
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 3: You guys are on air journal that on Sunday.

478
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,479
Speaker 2: It was it was before me, but it was.

479
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,920
Speaker 4: But yeah, it was the the other part of his

480
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 4: the apology by all accounts, in Pittsburgh at least some

481
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 4: of that I read.

482
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 2: I shouldn't say.

483
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 4: Oh, the apology was not like, hey, we're good, we

484
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 4: got you man, It was just kind of received.

485
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh he said his piece because it really wasn't

486
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 3: really an apology.

487
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 4: Even Yeah, sometimes people have difficulties doing that.

488
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 3: No, and I get that.

489
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,919
Speaker 4: It's yeah, it's the one thing of being married that

490
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 4: taught me is how to actually apologize.

491
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 3: God's true, It's true.

492
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 2: No, I'm sorry that you took it that way, because

493
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,360
Speaker 2: that is not an apology.

494
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it depends. It depends on how you're rolling.

495
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 2: You don't apologize like that.

496
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 4: If you're out there and you're single, that's not going

497
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 4: to help you, not going to help.

498
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 5: You, not helping the cause. There, No, there's no question

499
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 5: about it. All right, one more quarterback for you, how

500
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 5: about Baker Mayfield? And again we're keeping an eye on

501
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 5: the injury report opportunity here, and but we're looking at

502
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 5: a Carolina squad that Look, I've made my argument that

503
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 5: I think Bryce Bryce Yak should be in bubble wrap

504
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 5: for the rest of the year.

505
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 3: But offensively, they're a disaster.

506
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 5: So even though Tampa hasn't lived up to expectations and

507
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 5: We're hearing a lot of whether Super Bowls finds his

508
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,439
Speaker 5: way to the next job after this year, I don't know,

509
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 5: But for Baker Mayfield and for that offense, I'm looking

510
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 5: for some good things at home against Carolina.

511
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 3: All right.

512
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 5: Rashid Rice twelve catches fifteen targets, one hundred and forty

513
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 5: nine yards his last two games out target count, trying

514
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:03,119
Speaker 5: to emerge as that second guy next to Travis Kelsey

515
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 5: in that KSE offense. Obviously, we've celebrated the goodness of

516
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 5: Isaiah Pacheco for.

517
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 3: What he's been able to do.

518
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 5: And then lastly, I got a couple of running backs

519
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 5: for you, Dan Joe Mixon going up against Jacksonville. How

520
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,639
Speaker 5: much can we reasonably expect out of that Cincinnati offense.

521
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 5: He probably makes it into your lineup as a back

522
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 5: end to just based on volume, But boy, I think

523
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,679
Speaker 5: you're really wishing and hoping to find some daylight. And

524
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,359
Speaker 5: then bress Hall, you know, on that one or none

525
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 5: list the Jets were there. Do you like Garrett Wilson

526
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 5: enough that he's a top twenty four every week? No?

527
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 5: Is bres Hall there because he's going to touch the

528
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,439
Speaker 5: ball ten times probably, But all you're really doing is

529
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 5: hoping that he finds daylight for that one big scramble,

530
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 5: that big score, because it's sure as hell ain't coming

531
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 5: out of the passing game to create any kind of balance.

532
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 5: So against Atlanta a very difficult proposition, especially when I

533
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 5: know folks really would have invested, did heavily in him

534
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 5: based on the expectations of him working alongside Rogers had

535
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 5: some proper villains. As I celebrate Don Cheetle with that

536
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 5: line on his.

537
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 4: Birthday, Falcons jets reminds me of a quick story if

538
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 4: I can.

539
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's go.

540
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 2: Do you have any more ninja's that I want to get?

541
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 3: We did some quick lists this week.

542
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 4: I'll try to make this as quick as I can.

543
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 4: But Mike you may have known this. Patrick, you don't

544
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 4: know this. But for a while on Fox Sports Radio,

545
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 4: there was a radio station in Australia that had like

546
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 4: our direct number to our studio. Somehow they were able

547
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 4: to call us up and they would ask us.

548
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 2: Hey, can you come on and talk about you know,

549
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 2: the week in the NFL or sports.

550
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, And they'd be out a you know Sydney was

551
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 4: you know, it was a station out of Sydney and

552
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 4: I know there's one of the Perth that's called us,

553
00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 4: but yeah, you know, absolutely, and so I said, yeah,

554
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 4: I'm available. It's actually when I first came to Fox,

555
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 4: and I probably hadn't even been there a year. I'm like, yeah, oh,

556
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:11,479
Speaker 4: absolutely do I'm getting worldwide exposure and so yeah, it

557
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,400
Speaker 4: was awesome until they asked me how Michael Kernan did

558
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:21,119
Speaker 4: as a punter the past week in that Falcons Jets game,

559
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 4: and Mike I didn't know. I had no idea on, like,

560
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 4: you know, who the heck they were even talking about. Okay,

561
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 4: I think that's who it was, and I had zero

562
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 4: idea if they played for the Jets or the Falcons.

563
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 4: So you know what I did, straight up coach speak.

564
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, it's great, you know, just great job,

565
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 4: just you know, teammates really like them. I can't even

566
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 4: remember who the punter was. It was just but I

567
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 4: just remembered it was a Falcons Jets game and I

568
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 4: just did not know who they were even talking about

569
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 4: because they mentioned Falcons Jets matchup. So I just gave

570
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 4: him a bunch of coach speak and I guess it

571
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 4: was good enough for Sydney, Australia.

572
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 2: Oh that Yes, got to coach it up.

573
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 5: You know, we're gonna take it one game at a time. Look,

574
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:16,640
Speaker 5: the hangtime was fantastic. It's full extension.

575
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 2: It was.

576
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 4: I gotta find out who it was because and I

577
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 4: just looked up Michael Kernan and he wasn't from Australia,

578
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:27,399
Speaker 4: but it was someone.

579
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 2: It was someone of the day.

580
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, of who it was, and I just could not Yeah,

581
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 4: I just made up the story anyway. All right, those

582
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 4: are Ninjas for Week thirteen of the NFL season. We're

583
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 4: not done here, and I want your flex. I am

584
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 4: coming back with some advice that I hope pays off

585
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 4: a big time both in the streaming Defense Survivor and

586
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 4: in your fantasy leagues. He's Mike Krmen, I'm Dan Byer.

587
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,479
Speaker 4: That's next here, and I want your flex. All right,

588
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 4: a correction as we return here, and I want your flex.

589
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 4: The Australian punter was Ben Graham. That's all, okay, you

590
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 4: go Ben punting and Mike, as I remembered the story,

591
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 4: I thought he punted for the Falcons.

592
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 2: He punted for the Jets during that time. That's what

593
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 2: was for. So it was on.

594
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 4: I knew it was on one of the two teams,

595
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 4: because when they asked me on the Australian radio show

596
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 4: who it was, I had no idea which team. For

597
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 4: some reason, it stuck in my head that it was

598
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 4: the Falcons. So I still didn't even know seventeen years later,

599
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 4: but yeah, it was the punter.

600
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,239
Speaker 5: With all the things that we have to try to

601
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 5: keep ourselves up with, there's so many Jets, Saints, Cardinals

602
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 5: and Detroit Lions before he finally was done, and for

603
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 5: a while he held the NFL record of oldest rookie.

604
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: So there you go.

605
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 4: I should have said, his age is really paid off

606
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:48,479
Speaker 4: in that locker room.

607
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 3: That's what it is.

608
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 2: He is.

609
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 5: Veteran leadership really brings him Flay. We were having a joke.

610
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 5: We were talking some NBA smith and I on our

611
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 5: show and we were laughing at the futility of the

612
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 5: Detroit Pistons. Right, you got all these top picks. They're

613
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 5: veteran guys. Are guys from the twenty eighteen draft.

614
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 2: Wow, that's crazy, guys.

615
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 3: Who have watched out with other teams.

616
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and how on their slote.

617
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 4: Well that reminds me of just that tells you a

618
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 4: little bit about the NBA. When John Morant was in

619
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 4: his you know, hot water last season, and they're like

620
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 4: the veterans spoke up in the locker room, and then

621
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 4: you looked at their roster and you're like, well, Steven

622
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 4: Adams is the oldest player on that team and he's

623
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 4: twenty nine. Right, So you're like, all right, I guess

624
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 4: that's who it was, you know, because there's nobody else there.

625
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 2: But ah, that's today's NBA.

626
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 4: There's no Ben Graham's right now, dam right, at least

627
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 4: in the Pistons locker room. All right, here's my opportunity

628
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 4: to try to put the expert hat on.

629
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 3: Let's go.

630
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 4: Sometimes we actually do strike gold. I give you one

631
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 4: reason to starter guy and one reason to bench a guy.

632
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 4: And I'm going to give you a reason to start

633
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 4: a guy. And this is actually off the heels of

634
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 4: DK Metcalf kind of breaking out of his funk.

635
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 2: I've I've had.

636
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 4: Some shares in Evan Ingram with the Jacksonville Jaguars this season,

637
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 4: Mike zero touchdowns on the year. I mean, in fact,

638
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 4: his yardage has not been as great. I am going

639
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 4: to ride this one out. I Am going to continue

640
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 4: to play Evan Ingram until the season ends because at

641
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 4: some point he's going to catch a touchdown and it's

642
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 4: going to happen for him. So Monday that against the Bengals,

643
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 4: why not roll at Evan Ingram's touchdown drought for the

644
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 4: season ends in Week thirteen.

645
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 5: Well, you look at a guy who's totaled eighty two

646
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 5: targets on the year. Dan. The efficiency's been there with

647
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 5: sixty four catches, So opportunity has been there, just not

648
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 5: finding the painted grass. Maybe a little bit of the

649
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 5: old Jason Witting in him. No, not Jason Witting, the

650
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 5: Monday night football side of him. No, he had what

651
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 5: I used to call the allergy to the painted grass.

652
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 5: But for Ingram, potentially an opportunity, and certainly at the

653
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 5: tight end position, we're trying to find some gold.

654
00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 4: You had the John Robinson as a hot play for

655
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,239
Speaker 4: Week thirteen, and I almost was going to bench him,

656
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 4: I think, But I'm not going to I'm not going

657
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 4: to go that big of game hunting. I just think

658
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 4: that the Jets, the Falcons offense will be a welcome

659
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 4: site for the Jets defense. I'll just put it that way,

660
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 4: if that makes any sense. But I am going to

661
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 4: go kind of big game hunting and it goes to

662
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,719
Speaker 4: that Lion Saints game. I'm just going to say this

663
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 4: be a little weary of David Montgomery. Good numbers, average

664
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 4: arge per Carrie, fine, Mike, but at times can get

665
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 4: a little touchdown dependent. And with the emergence of Jamior Gibbs,

666
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 4: there's not a lot of reasons for David Montgomery to

667
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 4: catch any passes. So if he's not getting into the

668
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 4: end zone, then maybe his value dips a little. And

669
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 4: so I think it'll dip a little against the Saints

670
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 4: and what I think could be a little tougher.

671
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 2: Game than maybe we realize. Yeah, you had Jared Goff

672
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 2: and the Cold Soars so along the names.

673
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 3: No, I agree with you. I think you know the game.

674
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 5: The workload split's going to be different, difficult to try

675
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 5: to project going forward because Gibbs is starting to show

676
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 5: that he can do a bit of everything. Now, does

677
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 5: he have the same body frame that that holds up

678
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 5: over a long piece of period of time. No, But

679
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 5: we're talking about a one game sample size and try

680
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 5: to decide what to do for Week thirteen.

681
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we're gonna we're gonna roll out with David

682
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 4: Montgomery here as a as a guy to maybe a

683
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 4: reason to bench, and that's the touchdown dependency.

684
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 2: Vers isn't here he usually does streaming defenses.

685
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 4: I like Rams, Chargers and Buccaneers this week, defenses that

686
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:38,719
Speaker 4: should be available.

687
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 2: With Bailey's appy Mike.

688
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 4: I know they're going to try to do what they're

689
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 4: going to try to do with New England, but maybe

690
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 4: that would be the worst of the three. But I

691
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 4: think the Bucks against the Panthers to your point about

692
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 4: wanting to protect Bryce Young and honestly, Joe Flacco may

693
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 4: start for the Browns on Sunday.

694
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 3: How weird is that?

695
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it may take a shit for the Rams.

696
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 4: I should be available in your league if you are

697
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 4: looking at that crazy man.

698
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 5: We're strange bedfellows here in Week thirteen, no question about it.

699
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,399
Speaker 2: And finally my Survivor pick of the week.

700
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 4: Oh let's go all right, I think you have to

701
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 4: go Tampa Bay and there's probably a good chance that

702
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 4: you haven't picked the Buccaneers yet, but if you did,

703
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 4: then I would go Monday Night Bengals Jaguars.

704
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 2: I just like that spot.

705
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 4: Monday night football night game for Jacksonville Bengals obviously coming

706
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 4: in without Joe Burrow even though T. T.

707
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:34,800
Speaker 2: Higgins is expected to return.

708
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,720
Speaker 4: I like Jacksonville in that spot in Jacksonville is actually

709
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 4: a team you probably haven't been able to maximize or

710
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,319
Speaker 4: use in Survivor, And honestly, and maybe some of the

711
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 4: weeks that used them they may have burnt you. So

712
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 4: I'm going with Jacksonville and Tampa Bay to Florida teams

713
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 4: looking out for you and Survivor.

714
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:51,879
Speaker 3: Lease.

715
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 5: I like that nice hefty spread in that one for

716
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 5: the Monday Night nine and a total of only thirty

717
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 5: nine in that one. Another week where we've got three

718
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 5: games comfortably actually four games under forty for our totals,

719
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 5: and Cleveland and the Rams are barely there at forty

720
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:11,879
Speaker 5: point five.

721
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 4: Sure Steelers could be another option as well as a play.

722
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 4: They're at forty one and a half for the number

723
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 4: that I got right now.

724
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 5: Well, now that they're an offensive juggernaut, Dan, this is true.

725
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 2: Man.

726
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 5: Didn't you hear they went over four hundred yards this week?

727
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,760
Speaker 5: Never mind they could score any points.

728
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 4: If the NFL Playoffs were decided by the College Football Playoff,

729
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 4: the Steelers would not be getting into the bracket. Just

730
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 4: would not happen. But the NFL is not college football.

731
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 4: So they are in the thicket things.

732
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 5: Hey, your Ohio State Buckeys are right there, Dan, all

733
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 5: it takes a little bit of chaos.

734
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 4: Did you imagine the uproar if they got in again

735
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,879
Speaker 4: like back dooring it? There would be There would be

736
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,319
Speaker 4: And I know that there's a scenario. I know that

737
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 4: there could be an opportunity where they could slide in.

738
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 4: I don't see it happening, but yeah, there would be

739
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 4: quite the uproar.

740
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 5: I just want chaos, Dan, That's that's really all it

741
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,760
Speaker 5: comes down to. I want this weekend to be full

742
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 5: of upsets and weirdness. And like Smith and I had

743
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 5: talked about with the you know, committee member Boo that

744
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 5: got in front and started talking about yeah boot ore

745
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 5: Agan getting after it. When he started referencing Florida State,

746
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 5: he kind of opened the door to you know, they

747
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 5: could win, but if it's not impressive. Those were not

748
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 5: his words, but uh, you know, I'll read between the

749
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,719
Speaker 5: lines of what he was selling down there.

750
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 3: So hey, who knows.

751
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 2: I love how his real name was Eugene. But he's like, no,

752
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 2: we're going with Boo.

753
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 3: Wouldn't you go?

754
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 2: Yeah?

755
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 3: I mean, think of all the movie Eugene's boom come

756
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 3: through you.

757
00:36:55,760 --> 00:37:01,439
Speaker 4: No right, said everybody, and then he stayed saying, all right,
