Speaker 1: Wow, everybody, It's Wednesday, October two, twenty twenty four. Welcome
Speaker 1: to the NFL Fantasy Football Show. It's me and your
Speaker 1: man NAMEDG. Marcus Grant, joined by Michael F. Floyo and
Speaker 1: Lawan Jones, and we're just three guys in search of
Speaker 1: a storyline. We have plenty of things to talk about here.
Speaker 1: In Week five, we're gonna go through the Week five slate.
Speaker 1: We're gonna give you our fantasy hot takes. But let's
Speaker 1: get start. Let's just dive right into it. Because the
Speaker 1: really big story floating around on the interwebs, on the
Speaker 1: television screens as we get into our fantasy headlines, and
Speaker 1: that is that DeVante Adams. Apparently what happens in Vegas
Speaker 1: leads to you wanting a trade out of Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: He told the Raiders that he would prefer to not
Speaker 1: be in Silver and Black anymore. This is a big
Speaker 1: deal with one of the league's top receivers saying he
Speaker 1: wants a new home. I mean, I guess the big
Speaker 1: takeaways here. First of all, Florid, I'll start with you.
Speaker 1: Davante Adam says he wants out. That means there's already
Speaker 1: rumors swirling about where he should go or could go.
Speaker 1: For you, what's a good fantasy landing spot for DeVante
Speaker 1: Adams The Washington Commanders.
Speaker 2: Because I love Jaden Daniels and he is playing extremely
Speaker 2: well right now. And if you could put him and
Speaker 2: Terry McLaurin opposite of one another, now you're cooking with fire.
Speaker 2: But there's a lot of good target options, like the
Speaker 2: Steelers are one that makes sense. Obviously, he's always going
Speaker 2: to be tied to the Jets because of Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 2: That wouldn't be great for Garrett Wilson, but for Davante
Speaker 2: that would be a good thing because we know the
Speaker 2: chemistry that him and Rodgers has. So there's a number
Speaker 2: of spots. The only thing is if you have a
Speaker 2: receiver on a team, you don't want Davante to go
Speaker 2: there because he's going to take a lot of targets.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I've heard the Jets, obviously you mentioned
Speaker 1: the Aaron Rodgers connection. Maybe the Saints so he can
Speaker 1: be paired up with his boy Derek Carr again in
Speaker 1: New Orleans. I threw so I threw out sort of
Speaker 1: as a joke last week. It's gonna be all fun
Speaker 1: and games until he gets traded to the Chiefs, which
Speaker 1: got a lot of Raider fans, Charger fans, Bronco fans
Speaker 1: saying right, here's the thing, and I mean everybody says that, right,
Speaker 1: But if you are the Raiders and the Chiefs give
Speaker 1: you the best offer, why would you're not.
Speaker 3: Competing with the Chiefs. You're not. You're not pushing for a.
Speaker 1: Playoff spot like they're in your division, but you're not
Speaker 1: really competing with the Chiefs.
Speaker 2: You want the face of your franchise to now go
Speaker 2: win a super Bowl with your rival super Bowl with them.
Speaker 2: You're not. But I'm a petty guy if I might
Speaker 2: not be winning, but I don't want you to win.
Speaker 1: If the Chiefs can set you up with a package
Speaker 1: that sets you up for success down the road, don't
Speaker 1: you just not look at the name on the front
Speaker 1: of the jersey and just sort of move on with it.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I'm eddy, Your.
Speaker 1: Fans are gonna be your fans are gonna be heated
Speaker 1: for a minute, and then when all of a sudden
Speaker 1: you have like your friendranchise quarterback and you're winning, don't
Speaker 1: forget all about it?
Speaker 3: I think will you.
Speaker 2: Will never not see though at a picture of Adams
Speaker 2: holding up the Lombardi if they win one.
Speaker 3: If they win, which is, why would.
Speaker 4: You give them that? Why would you help your ops out?
Speaker 4: That's that's basically a situation.
Speaker 3: It's the Buffalo Bills, like, so.
Speaker 2: They keep helping. Not a good strategy. I'll tell you that.
Speaker 1: Let's get back to the Raiders, though, Lakwalm because if
Speaker 1: they move on from Devonte Adams, which right now signs
Speaker 1: point two, it's happening. Is there a receiver you I mean,
Speaker 1: we all know Brock Bauers.
Speaker 3: Is that dude? Like, aside from him, is there a
Speaker 3: receiver you want there? In Las Vegas?
Speaker 4: There's a couple. Actually, there's trade Talker that I talked about,
Speaker 4: you know, earlier this week where he's averaging nineteen Fantasy
Speaker 4: points per game in the last two games. Like he
Speaker 4: has big play upside, Like if you're looking for that
Speaker 4: boom off of your bench, he could be a guy.
Speaker 4: But most importantly Jacobi Myers, he's been a wide receiver
Speaker 4: one for a struggling offense once upon a time like
Speaker 4: this is kind of just who he is right now,
Speaker 4: and he's always been a reliable target coming out of
Speaker 4: that slot where you could depend on him. Right now,
Speaker 4: he's sitting with a seventy percent catchry. Like this guy
Speaker 4: has always been somebody that Mac Jones can lean on
Speaker 4: to get them out of trouble, and this could be
Speaker 4: that same situation with a Garner Minshew. So Jacobe Meyer's
Speaker 4: season long, I like his upside to be a solid
Speaker 4: wide receiver three slash flex.
Speaker 1: Uh. Yeah, it's funny you talk about him being a
Speaker 1: you know, one, number one receiver on a bad offense.
Speaker 1: Like I imagine him like the you know, the James Franco,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 3: First time, Like I'm looking around the rest of that.
Speaker 3: We've been here before. I'm looking around the rest of that.
Speaker 3: The raid receiver's like, yeah, no, no, this is you know,
Speaker 3: this is what I do. This is what I am.
Speaker 3: So I do like the Tray Tucker think though, you.
Speaker 2: Know who the real winner and all this though, is
Speaker 2: the Green Bay Packers because they don't got to hear
Speaker 2: the Rogers drama no more. They don't got to hear
Speaker 2: the Devonte Adams drama no more. But they got great
Speaker 2: wide receivers and a great quarterback.
Speaker 3: Sitting there unbothered with Jordan Love and jayde Reid. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: Let's get into the week five previews because we got
Speaker 1: bye weeks. The Lions, the Chargers, the Eagles, and the
Speaker 1: Titans all have the week off, so a number of
Speaker 1: key fantasy players not available to you.
Speaker 3: We'll start with Thursday night football.
Speaker 1: Bucks at the Falcons eight twenty Eastern on Amazon Prime.
Speaker 1: The Kawan Bucky Irving is the new hotness in these
Speaker 1: fantasy streets, but it is a Thursday night, So are
Speaker 1: you starting him yay or nay?
Speaker 4: Yay? I think this is an opportunity for Bucky to
Speaker 4: take the job and run away with it. I think
Speaker 4: a lot of situations right now for some fantasy managers
Speaker 4: is that you're dealing with the bye week, and you're
Speaker 4: dealing with some injuries at the running back position. I
Speaker 4: know me personally concerned with JT with that high ankle
Speaker 4: sprain over there in Indy. So it's like Bucky Irvin
Speaker 4: is hot right now to where he had a season
Speaker 4: high of routes ran and in snaps. So therefore this
Speaker 4: may be a slow burn, but this could be the
Speaker 4: game he could really pull away. Him having the same
Speaker 4: exact stats and Rashad White on the ground last week
Speaker 4: doesn't really scream like he's running away with the job.
Speaker 4: But this matchup against the Falcons, they're not a top
Speaker 4: elite defense on the ground when it comes to that,
Speaker 4: and they also have their starting middle linebacker dealing with
Speaker 4: some injury right now. This could be an opportunity where
Speaker 4: he can maximize his touches, maximize his fantasy at ceiling
Speaker 4: as well in this game and show up and show
Speaker 4: out and put some big points on the board.
Speaker 1: I believe pretty much everything you just said. I'm still
Speaker 1: scared to start him on a Thursday just because it's it's.
Speaker 4: Thursday night, right, I get it, the scariest night of
Speaker 4: all fantasy.
Speaker 3: I get it. It's it's Thursday night.
Speaker 1: And Todd Bowles and the offense they don't seem like
Speaker 1: they want to completely get away from Rashad White. So
Speaker 1: I like you just did get you know, like, But
Speaker 1: I think everything else you said is spot on. I
Speaker 1: think there's an opportunity for him to start to open
Speaker 1: up the gap there. I just like it. I like
Speaker 1: the last guy, I wanted to put him in the
Speaker 1: line up and get like nine, you know in the city.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's not what we're looking for.
Speaker 1: Being just steamed all weekend long, but the Sunday slate
Speaker 1: starts early in Week five because we got a game
Speaker 1: in jolly old England over in London Town Jets Vikings
Speaker 1: nine am easton. You can see that game on NFL Network.
Speaker 1: Sam Donald has been on fire. He's the NFL in
Speaker 1: touchdown passes, which is not a sentence I thought I
Speaker 1: was gonna say heading into Week five. The Jets defense, though,
Speaker 1: it is still very good. Can you trust Sam Donald
Speaker 1: this week?
Speaker 3: Florio no No.
Speaker 2: I would ideally try to get away from him if possible.
Speaker 2: I know some of you out there might just be like, well,
Speaker 2: he's my best option. He's playing so hot, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: stick with him. Sure, you can choose to do that,
Speaker 2: but we've seen stories like this before where a player
Speaker 2: is just red hot and then they face one of
Speaker 2: the best defenses in the league and it comes to
Speaker 2: a crashing halt. I'm not saying like Sam Donald is
Speaker 2: done for or anything like that, but the Jets defense
Speaker 2: is still elite. They have allowed the second fewest passing
Speaker 2: yards and only two passing touchdowns all year. We still
Speaker 2: have Sauce Garner out there and DJ Reid, who's going
Speaker 2: to make life very tough on those Vikings wide receivers.
Speaker 2: I think a lot of the credit here goes to
Speaker 2: Koc and everything, and he's still gonna be, you know,
Speaker 2: doing his thing. But this Jets defense, this just seems
Speaker 2: like one and that'll kind of punch him in the
Speaker 2: mouth and slow this offense down.
Speaker 3: I love the audible gasp from the court. Can I
Speaker 3: pull connect?
Speaker 4: Can I pull a Rank real quick? Can I can
Speaker 4: I blow the rundown hot take? Sam Donald is going
Speaker 4: to light up the Jets defense, like across the pond,
Speaker 4: just being with the drama that you know, their Jersey
Speaker 4: Shore like storyline that Robert Salad and a Rodgers have
Speaker 4: right now trying to figure out the cadence of the offense.
Speaker 4: But the Jets defense haven't faced any real quarterbacks in
Speaker 4: the last couple of weeks. You got Brock pretty week one. Okay,
Speaker 4: that's a preseason game, but Will Levis, Jakobe Brissett and
Speaker 4: Bo Nicks, Like, this isn't the defense that I think
Speaker 4: you know is scary. It looks scary on paper, but
Speaker 4: they really haven't faced somebody like Sam Donald who's been
Speaker 4: playing his best football.
Speaker 3: Offense.
Speaker 2: They have faced good quarterbacks for the last two years.
Speaker 4: It's on a legendary run right now, Mike, Like, I
Speaker 4: just can't test sit Chin. I can't do it.
Speaker 3: I love this. I love this Jersey short storyline.
Speaker 1: So right now it's for Rogers and Sala, it's GTL, Gripe,
Speaker 1: Trouble and Lose.
Speaker 3: Is that where we are at? Is that where we
Speaker 3: are right now with those guys, Yeah, that's where we're at.
Speaker 3: Ravens at the Bengals. Lakwan.
Speaker 1: You talked about Bucky Irving maybe taking over in the
Speaker 1: backfield there in Tampa? Is there a backfield takeover in progress?
Speaker 1: In Cincinnati? There's a lot more Chase Brown.
Speaker 3: Last week? Is Zach Moss's gig in trouble there?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 4: Wow, this is actually interesting. I would say, yeah, if
Speaker 4: Zach Moss only had like five touches and a donut party,
Speaker 4: but he didn't. He actually had a good week. He
Speaker 4: had seventeen Fantasy points. So, like, I think what really
Speaker 4: happened was is that Chase Brown's actually, you know, he
Speaker 4: found the right game to maximize his opportunities and actually
Speaker 4: jump on and find the end zones twice. So everything
Speaker 4: is just going right for the Bengals right now in
Speaker 4: the run game. If you have this one two punch
Speaker 4: in Zach Wawsson, Chase Brown, and I think last week
Speaker 4: we have to also, you know, chalk it up. It
Speaker 4: was the Panthers. But it's not something that I think
Speaker 4: it's gonna happen like immediately this week. But it's something
Speaker 4: that you just keep.
Speaker 3: Your eye on.
Speaker 4: Like, but as of right now, I'm not like fully
Speaker 4: chasing the Chase Brown trained right now as a guy
Speaker 4: that's going to be taken over to backfield.
Speaker 1: I am hoping that Chase Brown starts to take over
Speaker 1: a little bit more basically just to confirm my priors,
Speaker 1: because he was the guy that I drafted a lot
Speaker 1: of in the preseason.
Speaker 3: So we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1: I do think the gap is going to close a
Speaker 1: little bit more, especially because Chase Brown is more effective
Speaker 1: in the passing game than Zach Moss is Bill's at
Speaker 1: the Texans FLOYDA. You've talked about the Bills secondary. How
Speaker 1: worried are you about Nico Collins this week?
Speaker 2: Zero?
Speaker 3: Okay, none at all.
Speaker 2: I took the l last week because I put out
Speaker 2: a list of like here, you're elite wide receivers for fantasy,
Speaker 2: and people were like, where's Nico Collins And I was like, well,
Speaker 2: he's right outside of this group for me. And then
Speaker 2: Nico Collins played and I was like, yeah, he belongs
Speaker 2: in the group. He's laughing at your target competition narratives
Speaker 2: and everything we discussed all season. He is putting up
Speaker 2: absolutely elite numbers. Yeah, maybe he doesn't have the monster
Speaker 2: game that we've become accustomed to this for month because
Speaker 2: of the Bills secondary and maybe the Texans want to
Speaker 2: get digs in a little extra going this week. But yeah,
Speaker 2: I never worry. I'm never sitting Nico Collins anything like that.
Speaker 3: All right.
Speaker 1: So basically we're saying Nico Collins at this point matchup proof. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't think is a ridigulous statement at all.
Speaker 4: He's in his Cooper Cup era right now. He's on
Speaker 4: a historical run right now. Like it's amazing. All right,
Speaker 4: speaking of Cooper Cup, Packers and Rams Lakwan. At least
Speaker 4: until Cup and Nikua get back, have we settled on
Speaker 4: a Rams pass catcher.
Speaker 3: That we like for fantasy?
Speaker 4: Well, first off, I'm counting down the days one more
Speaker 4: months reunited, the ban is back together. But man, I
Speaker 4: could say, yes, we kind of have more of an
Speaker 4: understanding with the information that we got last week. Now,
Speaker 4: to to Atwell seems to be the guy to get
Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford out of the mud. When the offense is stalling,
Speaker 4: it's not going the old line's not protecting well. He
Speaker 4: ends up finding to to at Well down the field
Speaker 4: to stress the field, to get the big play, to
Speaker 4: get the spark on the offense. Now, something interesting has
Speaker 4: been happening with Jordan Winnington. He's just so damn good
Speaker 4: football man. He showed flashes last week where I was like, wait,
Speaker 4: was when did Cooper Cup get back? Like that first
Speaker 4: catch he had was just amazing, just extending from the chest,
Speaker 4: putting thumb to thumb, just catching the ball across his body,
Speaker 4: just across the middle is just amazing. So he's finding
Speaker 4: out to be the reliable target for Matthew Stafford like
Speaker 4: how Cooper Cup is. And I see him building on
Speaker 4: this next game to where you know the Packers they're
Speaker 4: a tough defense, but man, Jordan Winnington is just getting open,
Speaker 4: making itself available and really stepping up. You got guys
Speaker 4: like DeMarcus Robinson. I know fantasy managers are in nightmare
Speaker 4: right now, and Tyler Johnson, he's kind of not stepping
Speaker 4: up to fill up that role to be the pooka
Speaker 4: nakoul role that we thought he could be. So therefore
Speaker 4: it's the two two at Well for the big upside
Speaker 4: and Jordan Windington for the safe floor to be one
Speaker 4: of Matthew Stafford's favorite targets until you know the guys
Speaker 4: are back in the house.
Speaker 1: I think my big fears that Stafford's just gonna spread
Speaker 1: the ball around and it's just gonna be kind of unsatisfying,
Speaker 1: like it'll work for the Rams offense, it.
Speaker 3: Just won't work for us in fantasy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just good that last week we saw a
Speaker 4: sea and high end snaps for Jordan Winnings and he
Speaker 4: led them in routes as well, So it's like, yea,
Speaker 4: these are.
Speaker 3: Good signs of him.
Speaker 4: Really Yeah, that's a good sign that he's going to
Speaker 4: be one of the guys you need to have on
Speaker 4: your roster for the next month.
Speaker 1: There it is, speaking of guys you want to have
Speaker 1: on your roster, it is time if to talk about
Speaker 1: some sleepers for the week.
Speaker 3: LQ. Who you got?
Speaker 4: I like Josh Downs regardless of the quarterback situation, Like
Speaker 4: you would like it to be Joe Flacco confirmed, Like,
Speaker 4: all right, cool, But if it was Joe Flacco and
Speaker 4: I knew today, Josh Dowens probably wouldn't be like a
Speaker 4: sleeper for me. But man, the Jaguars are allowing the
Speaker 4: fourth most fantasy points per game the wide receivers right now,
Speaker 4: and are allowing a strong eighty five percent completion rate
Speaker 4: when QB's are targeting the slot. So there's the upside
Speaker 4: there regardless of the quarterback situation. So I'm looking at
Speaker 4: how Josh Dollens showed up and showed out last week
Speaker 4: with twenty two fantasy points against the Pittsburgh Steelers. In
Speaker 4: my heart, they are the top three defense in the
Speaker 4: NFL right now when it comes to just overall defense.
Speaker 4: So for him to put up twenty two points, which
Speaker 4: was the most points that the Pittsburgh Steelers have allowed
Speaker 4: to a wide receiver, Yeah, josh Awns has a ride.
Speaker 4: He's back from injury, and he's ready to be a
Speaker 4: solid flex option week to week for a lot of
Speaker 4: fantasy managers.
Speaker 1: All right, So you got Josh downs Floyda, who you
Speaker 1: got same team sticking with the Colts?
Speaker 2: Give me tray sermon. Obviously this is dependent on what
Speaker 2: happens with Jonathan Taylor, but anytime I hear high ankle sprain,
Speaker 2: alarm bell start going off in my head, especially because
Speaker 2: Taylor has missed time in the past due to ankle issues. Sermon,
Speaker 2: look you see him right there, agatinting the goal line push.
Speaker 2: I laughed at that one because I don't think his
Speaker 2: feet were even on the ground when he got it
Speaker 2: pushed into the end zone. But it's about the matchup
Speaker 2: as well. The Jacks have allowed these seventh most fantasy
Speaker 2: points per game to running backs. They're in the top
Speaker 2: four in catches and receiving yards allowed. And if it's
Speaker 2: Joe Flacco playing, maybe you got a couple more dumpoffs.
Speaker 2: If it's Anthony Richardson, we know how dynamic that run
Speaker 2: game can be there. So I have a lot of
Speaker 2: teams where I either went zero RB or I went
Speaker 2: like hero RB and built around Isaiah. It's pretty ugly
Speaker 2: right now. So week to week I gotta look for
Speaker 2: guys like this. We're getting the opportunity, and if he does,
Speaker 2: I'm starting him in a handful of leaks.
Speaker 1: So I didn't get the memo that we had to
Speaker 1: pick a Colt, so I instead with Javonta Williams as
Speaker 1: my sleeper for the week. I know the numbers haven't
Speaker 1: been great, the Bronco offense hasn't been great, but the
Speaker 1: metrics and the foundational stuff is good. He's on the
Speaker 1: field a ton, he leads the team in rushing attempts,
Speaker 1: He's heavily involved in the passing game, running a ton
Speaker 1: of routes, and he's got a good matchup this week
Speaker 1: against the Raider defense that has been very soft, giving
Speaker 1: up more than five yards per carry nearly six yards
Speaker 1: per reception to the running back position. So I think
Speaker 1: they can get some short throws involved because we know
Speaker 1: bo Nicks is not pushing the ball downfield, so Javonte
Speaker 1: Williams getting that underneath stuff I think is gonna go
Speaker 1: a long way toward helping out his week.
Speaker 3: We gotta plenty more to dive into on the show.
Speaker 1: We're gonna have some hot starts for the week as
Speaker 1: well as looking at the rest or at least the
Speaker 1: other big games in the Week five Slate.
Speaker 3: Stick around for more of the NFL Fantasy Football Show.
Speaker 3: It's time to see who will deliver? Presented by Uber.
Speaker 1: Eats, guys as we think that are going to be
Speaker 1: fantastic in week five.
Speaker 4: And who you got, Lakwan, I got an entire team,
Speaker 4: I got the defense man the Denver Broncos DST showing
Speaker 4: up showing out again because last week, man, they made
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers look very uncomfortable in the pocket, sacking him
Speaker 4: five times. So there are fantasy points on the table
Speaker 4: five times people, Aaron Rodgers. That's the most in the
Speaker 4: last four years he has touched the ground in the game.
Speaker 4: So therefore they got the Raiders who are struggling, who
Speaker 4: have their own storyline going.
Speaker 3: On right now.
Speaker 4: I don't know what to call that show. Maybe the
Speaker 4: real world Las Vegas. I mean, I don't know if
Speaker 4: you know you know that that was a crazy season.
Speaker 4: But I just feel like the Denver Broncos are in
Speaker 4: for a smash, especially with some notable defens's DST defenses
Speaker 4: on by right now, Florida, who you.
Speaker 3: Like this week?
Speaker 2: Gino Smith? Who don't look now, but in his last
Speaker 2: three weeks he's averaging three hundred and thirty seven passing yards,
Speaker 2: but he has one touchdown in each game this year.
Speaker 2: A lot of his receivers rule down like at the
Speaker 2: one or near the goal line. His touchdown percentage is
Speaker 2: way lower than what it has been during his tenure
Speaker 2: in Seattle, and we see these things kind of change.
Speaker 2: They changed very quickly and in bunches. So I think
Speaker 2: a three to four touchdown game is coming for Gino
Speaker 2: Smith this week.
Speaker 1: Gino has been playing really good football. Meanwhile, Brandon Ayuk
Speaker 1: has not played really great football to start the season.
Speaker 1: But I think this is a week he starts to
Speaker 1: break out of it a little bit. I've looked at
Speaker 1: the last four weeks sort of as his preseason. I
Speaker 1: mean I didn't before, but I did now because he
Speaker 1: hasn't played well. This is a good matchup against the
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. They have given up a lot of points,
Speaker 1: They've given up a lot of yards through the air.
Speaker 1: I think this is a week that the Niners really
Speaker 1: try to get their true wide receiver one involved. And
Speaker 1: if you've been struggling with Ayuk, stay patient. I think
Speaker 1: it starts to happen for you this week. That was
Speaker 1: Who Will Deliver presented by Uber Eats, where you can
Speaker 1: get the best deals on game day food all season long,
Speaker 1: the official on demand delivery partner of the NFL order.
Speaker 1: Now back to some game preview. Speaking of the Cardinals
Speaker 1: at the forty nine Ers, LaQuan, I know it hasn't
Speaker 1: been great for your boy, Greg Dortsch.
Speaker 3: Are we off the search for a wide receiver too
Speaker 3: in Arizona? Now?
Speaker 4: Yes, until further notice. I mean, look, Dorschland has been
Speaker 4: closed for maintenance. Who are still trying to figure some
Speaker 4: things out. But yeah, I think it's locked up that
Speaker 4: you know, Marvin Harrison is the one. So for the
Speaker 4: next upcoming weeks, it might be tough to try to
Speaker 4: put a Greg Dortch or Michael Wilson with the Packers
Speaker 4: Chargers coming up. So it's like trade McBride should be
Speaker 4: coming back from this concussion. But if you want to
Speaker 4: drop Greg Dortch, I understand it. It's a business decision.
Speaker 4: But I'm not dropping him. I'm sleeping at Dorschlane. I
Speaker 4: got a bed in the back, living.
Speaker 3: Off a venue.
Speaker 1: So yeah, staying at the abandoned amusement park. It's very
Speaker 1: how very scoop how Scooby do with you right now?
Speaker 2: Man?
Speaker 3: Look, I would look, I went from dorts to Michael Wilson.
Speaker 1: Now I'm just like, all right, I'm gonna wait and
Speaker 1: see what happens at this point. Sunday Night Football Cowboys
Speaker 1: and the Steelers. Imagine with two teams that met in
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl many many moons ago, Florial, how many
Speaker 1: Cowboys are you willing to start here? Especially on Brandon
Speaker 1: Cooks is like he's going to miss at least the
Speaker 1: next game, maybe something beyond that as well.
Speaker 2: The definitives are two, like C d Lamb is a
Speaker 2: player that you never said, I don't care who he
Speaker 2: can be playing the Monstars. You play him every single week.
Speaker 2: And Jake Ferguson, Like Jake Ferguson, I know, I think
Speaker 2: is getting overlooked a little bit right now double figures
Speaker 2: since he's returned. He's a clear cut number two target
Speaker 2: on the team that throws the third most or sorry,
Speaker 2: second most in the NFL. Dak is one that it
Speaker 2: depends on your option, Like I like Gino more than
Speaker 2: him this week. I like Justin Fields more than him
Speaker 2: this week. But I like Dak more than like Mahomes
Speaker 2: this week. So he kind of falls into that fringe
Speaker 2: QB one group depending on what you're at. I'd play
Speaker 2: Dak over Sam Darnold as well.
Speaker 3: Jake Ferguson.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yes, okay, so yeah, so two and
Speaker 1: a half Cowboys that you'd be willing to start in
Speaker 1: week five. Yeah, it's just it's been hard, right because,
Speaker 1: pecially because the run game has been non existent. They
Speaker 1: still are looking for a second wide receiver after Cede Lamb.
Speaker 2: It's their fullback running routes.
Speaker 3: Now, what what are we doing? We're sorry? It just
Speaker 3: it just it caused me to glitch a little bit.
Speaker 3: I have to stop it.
Speaker 2: One team can throw it to their quarterback, their fullback,
Speaker 2: and it's you guys.
Speaker 3: Everyone else.
Speaker 1: Kyle Eustchek is in play. Every other full back. No,
Speaker 1: we don't know.
Speaker 4: I love for cj Han Vikings, real life player.
Speaker 2: I don't want him taking targets away from Aaron Jones.
Speaker 1: Right, That's that's sort of the point there, gotcha. Monday
Speaker 1: Night Football, it's the Saints and the Chiefs. I will
Speaker 1: pose this question to both of you, but I'll start
Speaker 1: with you, Lakwan, who'd you rather start?
Speaker 3: Derek Carr? Patrick mahomes Uh?
Speaker 4: Can I just bench boat and get zero points?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 4: This is real nasty work here? Like I don't like
Speaker 4: any of them for fantasy. Both of the matchups are
Speaker 4: nasty for me, but like I guess I'll go with
Speaker 4: Derek Carr just being that his weapons are actually healthy,
Speaker 4: and you know, mahone's been losing one special player on
Speaker 4: the offense like every other week now, so it's like,
Speaker 4: I don't want to even try to take the chance
Speaker 4: of starting Mahomes against the Saint's defense that's just been
Speaker 4: great this season every season. Honestly, They're just one of
Speaker 4: those defenses that you have to have on the schedule, like, Okay,
Speaker 4: we got to prep for this.
Speaker 3: One for you, Florida Car or O Mahomes.
Speaker 2: I have both as sits in stardom cittem this week
Speaker 2: with some other really big name options to go check
Speaker 2: that out, but I would take the shot on Mahomes.
Speaker 2: I feel like car has been in single digits two
Speaker 2: straight weeks and the Chiefs don't look now, but the
Speaker 2: last three weeks, Joe Burrow, Kirk Cousins, Justin Herbert all
Speaker 2: held in check against that defense. We know they're really
Speaker 2: good as well. I don't want either one, though, I'm
Speaker 2: with Lakwan on.
Speaker 1: That if I can get away from both, I would
Speaker 1: that secondary has been good for the last couple of years.
Speaker 1: I guess if I had to pick one, it's probably Mahomes,
Speaker 1: But I don't love. Never thought we'd be saying this,
Speaker 1: never thought this'd be a real question, But this is
Speaker 1: where we are in twenty ninety four.
Speaker 4: Derek Carr, Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 1: All right, now, you can check the rest of our
Speaker 1: Week five preview on Fantasy Extra over on NFL Plus.
Speaker 3: We'll be sure to go check that out.
Speaker 1: But it's time to drive your line up, presented by
Speaker 1: the all new hybrid Toyota Camry LQ.
Speaker 3: What do you got for us that is spicy about
Speaker 3: Week five?
Speaker 4: Wow, Canchuba Hubbard show up and show out again for
Speaker 4: another RB one performance against the Bears. I mean, the
Speaker 4: last two weeks he has been amazing. He has been
Speaker 4: performing since Andy Dawn has taken over as the starter,
Speaker 4: top five running back in the last two weeks, and
Speaker 4: since Andy has taken over this Panthers offense, who have
Speaker 4: to respect it. They've been a top five offense since
Speaker 4: he's taken over total yards, rushing, scoring, whatever you want
Speaker 4: to name it. You got to put respect on this
Speaker 4: Panthers O line as well. Stepping up for Cuba Hubber
Speaker 4: to another RB one performance this week.
Speaker 1: Wow, even against the Bears, that is spicy. My Jonathan
Speaker 1: brooks Shares don't like it. Yeah, man, like I need
Speaker 1: my I need my Jonathan brook Shares to be worth something.
Speaker 1: This is not helping me at all.
Speaker 4: He's coming back with open arms. Just let him slow
Speaker 4: walk it in, you.
Speaker 3: Know, all right? All right, sure, fine, Florida. What is
Speaker 3: your hot take for the week?
Speaker 2: Amari Cooper? Two hundred yards and a touchdown. I know
Speaker 2: it sounds spicy, like half of that might come on
Speaker 2: one play. Every week is basically a game of like
Speaker 2: will he catch the long one or not? Last week
Speaker 2: he caught it. He had an eighty two yard touchdown
Speaker 2: and got called back due to a questionable holding penalty.
Speaker 2: But the Commanders, man, they just get torched through the air.
Speaker 2: They are in the top six and passing yards allowed
Speaker 2: to wide receivers. No team has allowed more touchdowns every
Speaker 2: week but one a wide receiver has scored at least
Speaker 2: twenty three Fantasy points against them. That one week was
Speaker 2: the Cardinals when Kyler Murray just did not come through.
Speaker 2: Marvin Harrison even in that game, had eighteen. So yeah,
Speaker 2: you start your elite wide receivers against the Commanders, and
Speaker 2: I think this is a get right spot for a
Speaker 2: Mark Cooper.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it does feel like last week the Commanders shut
Speaker 1: down the Cardinals. It feels like that was sort of
Speaker 1: a one week thing, and maybe more about the Cardinals
Speaker 1: than the come I have more questions about them than
Speaker 1: I do the Commanders. Yeah, no, I think that's true.
Speaker 1: I think it's more about the Cardinals than it was
Speaker 1: the Commanders at this point. Yea, we will find out.
Speaker 1: For me, it's about Jordan Love. Jordan Love came back.
Speaker 3: He came back. He looked great. I know like it
Speaker 3: was kind of a rough start. I should say that
Speaker 3: is a rough start.
Speaker 1: Second half he looks very good, very nearly got the
Speaker 1: Packers that come from behind win against Minnesota. I think
Speaker 1: this week he comes out hot, throws four touchdown passes. Look,
Speaker 1: the Rams have been a soft spot for us in fantasy.
Speaker 1: We want to take advantage of it as much as possible.
Speaker 1: We know what Jaden Reid can do. Dontavian Wicks has
Speaker 1: been a very popular waiver wire ad so has Tucker Kraft.
Speaker 1: With Christian Watson down right now and in offense, it
Speaker 1: doesn't really involve it's running back to a whole lot
Speaker 1: in the passing game. So I think Jordan Love stays hot,
Speaker 1: has a big, big week, and I think you can
Speaker 1: reap the benefits if you have been starting him. Would
Speaker 1: help my Guillotine League couple of weeks ago before I
Speaker 1: got chopped because I was like having to start whomever
Speaker 1: I could find at quarterback.
Speaker 3: But you know that's just me being bitter. Not to
Speaker 3: worry about that.
