1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: Hey everyone on Pat Fitzmorris, managing editor of Fantasy Pros

2
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: and Betting Pros, here to run through some of my

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: favorite Week eighteen player props and trying to wash last

4
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: week's bad taste out of my mouth. I think we

5
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: are now at seventy one and fifty for the season.

6
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 1: Still a pretty solid season overall, but yeah, last week

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 1: was bad. Let's turn things around, and let's start with

8
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: Josh Dobbs under two hundred and four point five passing yards.

9
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 1: So Dobbs made his first NFL start in Week seventeen

10
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: and completed twenty of thirty nine passes for two hundred

11
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: and thirty two yards with one touchdown in one interception

12
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:45,959
Speaker 1: against the Cowboys. With Ryan Tannehill uninjured reserve after ankle surgery,

13
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 1: and with rookie Malik Willis having played poorly in his

14
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: stint as Tannehill's replacement, Dobbs is going to get another

15
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: start here in an attempt to save the Titans season.

16
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: They've lost six straits, but they can still get into

17
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: the playoffs Saturday night with a win over the Jaguars.

18
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: The Jaguars are twenty ninth in DVA against the pass

19
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: this year. Their pass defense has generally not been good,

20
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: but over their last four games they are seventh in

21
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: DA against the pass. They have been better lately. The

22
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: Titans have been one of the run heaviest teams in

23
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: the league this year. They are running on forty eight

24
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: point seven percent of their offensive snaps. I think they're

25
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: just going to pound away with Derrick Henry in this

26
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 1: game and try to minimize the burden on the inexperienced Dobs,

27
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: So I think Dobbs under two hundred and four point

28
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: five yards is a pretty good bet here. I'm also

29
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: taking the under on Kenny Pickett's passing yardage, which is

30
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: set at one hundred and ninety six point five yards.

31
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: He is going against the Browns this weekend, and the

32
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: Browns pass defense has been quietly excellent for the last

33
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: two months. Over Cleveland's last ten games, only four of

34
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: their opponents have thrown for more than two hundred yards

35
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: and only one has thrown for more than two hundred

36
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: and twenty nine yards, so they've basically just been shutting

37
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: down every other passing game they've faced. Since Week seven,

38
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: the Browns are number two in DVA against the pass.

39
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: Pickett in his starts and We're not going to count

40
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 1: the Week fourteen start against the Ravens, where he was

41
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: knocked out early with a concussion. In his ten other starts,

42
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: he's averaged two hundred and eight point nine passing yards.

43
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: Look for him to finish pretty well below that number

44
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 1: this week against this excellent Cleveland defense, which, by the way,

45
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: has been a run funnel this year. Cleveland is not

46
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: very good against the run, and the Browns have faced

47
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: the sixth fewest pass attempts this season. So can he

48
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: Pickett under one hundred and ninety six point five passing yards.

49
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: I like Isaiah Pacheco, the Chiefs running back, to go

50
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: over sixty one point five rushing yards this week. Pacheco

51
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 1: has fallen short of this number in his last two games,

52
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: but before that he had rattled off six straight games

53
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: with better than sixty one and a half rushing yards.

54
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: So six of his last eight he has cleared this number,

55
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,679
Speaker 1: and over those eight games he's averaged fourteen point eight

56
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: rushing attempts and seventy one point one rushing yards per game.

57
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: He is facing a Las Vegas defense that ranks twenty

58
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: first in DVA against the run, and the Raiders have

59
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: given up an average of one hundred and sixty point

60
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: seven rushing yards over their last three games. They were

61
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: completely trampled by the Patriots Ramondre Stevenson in week fifteen

62
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: he had one hundred and seventy two rushing yards against them,

63
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: and Christian McCaffrey of the forty nine ers had one

64
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty one rushing yards against them last week.

65
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: I think Pachecko can top sixty one and a half

66
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: rushing yards pretty easily here, so I like Pachecko over

67
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: sixty one point five rushing yards. We will get to

68
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: the rest of this week's plays in just a minute,

79
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the rest of this week's selections.

80
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: Travis Etn under sixty one point five rushing yards. On

81
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: the surface, I don't love the idea of betting an

82
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 1: under on Etn since he's been so good lately, averaging

83
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: ninety eight rushing yards over his last three games. But

84
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: this is more about the Titans run defense than it

85
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: is about Etn himself. When Etn faced the Titans in

86
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: Week fourteen, he had seventeen carries for just thirty two

87
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: years yards. The Titans have held thirteen of their last

88
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: fourteen opponents under one hundred rushing yards. They've given up

89
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: only sixty five point four rushing yards a game to

90
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 1: opposing running backs this season, second lowest total in the

91
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: league behind only the forty nine ers, and Tennessee's defense

92
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: has just been a pass funnel all season. It has

93
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: faced a league high six hundred and thirty nine pass

94
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: attempts this season and only three hundred and seventy six

95
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 1: rushing attempts, third fewest, which means the Titans opponents have

96
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: run the ball on only thirty seven percent of their

97
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 1: offensive snaps this year. Teams attack the Tennessee Titans through

98
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: the air, not on the ground. I think ETN finishes

99
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: with under sixty one and a half rushing yards Dereck

100
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: Henry and yes, I'm hitting this Titans Jaguars game pretty

101
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 1: hard because motivation levels are always hard to gauge in

102
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: Week eighteen, but we know the Titans and Jaguars are

103
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: both going to be motivated in a game that will

104
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 1: settle the AFC South title and will give someone a

105
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: playoff spot and send someone home. So both teams very

106
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: motivated for this one. And as mentioned earlier, the Titans

107
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: are probably going to run the ball as much as

108
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: possible this week to try to minimize the Josh Dobbs

109
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: effect on this game. Dobbs is inexperienced. I think they'll

110
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: try to take the ball out of his hands as

111
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: much as possible. Dereck Henry has run for more than

112
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: one hundred yards in three straight games, and he is

113
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: averaging ninety five point three rushing yards for this season.

114
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: When Henry faced the Jaguars in Week fourteen seventeen, carries

115
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty one yards. I think he gets

116
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: over eighty nine point five rushing yards this week. Jeric

117
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 1: McKinnon over thirty two point five rushing or receiving yards.

118
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,919
Speaker 1: Excuse me. McKinnon has cleared this number in three of

119
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: his last four games, and the one game where he

120
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: missed over that stretch, he only missed by one and

121
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: a half yards. So since the beginning of November, McKinnon

122
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: has averaged five point seven targets a game, four point

123
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: six catches a game, and forty four receiving yards a game.

124
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: On Saturday Night, he is going to be facing the Raiders,

125
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: who have given up a league high eight hundred and

126
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: eighteen receiving yards to running backs. I think McKinnon clears

127
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: thirty two and a half receiving yards pretty easily, Evan Ingram,

128
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: the Jaguars tight end over forty five point five receiving

129
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: yards maybe my favorite bet of the week. Ingram has

130
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: just been a monster over the last month, averaging six

131
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: point eight receptions and eighty eight point three receiving yards

132
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: over his last four games. One of those games was

133
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: an eleven catch, one hundred and sixty two yard two

134
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: touchdown outburst against the Tennessee Titans, whom he will face

135
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: again on Saturday nights. Tennessee has given up one thousand,

136
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: ninety two receiving yards to tight ends this season, the

137
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: most in the NFL. And finally, another tight end prop,

138
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: Haydenhurst of the Bengal under thirty and a half receiving yards.

139
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: Hurst has played seven games this season where Bengals wide

140
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: receivers Jamar Chase and t Higgins have both been active,

141
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: and in those seven games, Hurst has cleared this number

142
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: thirty and a half only two times. He's failed to

143
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: hit it in five of those games. And Hurst is

144
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: going to be going up against a Ravens defense that

145
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: has allowed the eighth fewest receiving yards to tight ends

146
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: this season. Yes, revenge game for Hayden Hurst going against

147
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens who drafted him, but I think his

148
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: old team keeps him in check this week and he

149
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: finishes under thirty and a half receiving yards. So let's

150
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: recap this week's plays one last time. Josh Dobbs Titans

151
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: quarterback under two hundred and four point five passing yards,

152
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett of the Steelers under one hundred and ninety

153
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 1: six point five passing yards, Isaiah Piccheko of the Chiefs

154
00:08:55,520 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 1: over sixty one point five rushing yards, Travis Eta of

155
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,959
Speaker 1: the Jaguars under sixty one point five rushing yards, Derrick

156
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: Henry of the Titans over eighty nine point five rushing yards,

157
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: Jeric McKinnon of the Kansas City Chiefs over thirty two
