1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: Wow, fantasy freaks in gigs? What is up? You're listening

2
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: to the NFL Fantasy Live podcast. It is Wednesday. I

3
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 1: feel like we just did this yesterday because we did.

4
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 1: We usually do this on Friday, but come on, man,

5
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 1: it's a holiday, so we just wanted to bang one

6
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: out on Wednesday. So it's all good. We've got no

7
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: Michael Fabriano in his stead, We've got West Virginia's finest,

8
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 1: the man with the one of the best beards in

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: all of fantasy football, a Mason jar loving moonshine drinking

10
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 1: s ob from West Virginia. His family hails originally from

11
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,840
Speaker 1: South Carolina. But I will tell you what this man

12
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: knows wide receivers. We are talking about Matt harmontt um. Yeah,

13
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: how do you how do you follow up that intro? Yeah?

14
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of that was accurate. The only

15
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: parts that weren't accurate as I am not from West Virginia,

16
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: but you are. Okay, that's good. I'm solid and my

17
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: family is from North Carolina, not South Carolina. Although the

18
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: rest of it, the Mason Jars moonshine, well Moonshina can't

19
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: confirm or deny, potentially if it was around. Okay, yes, yeah,

20
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: I can confirm. Okay, listen, today is Wednesday. Um, the

21
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 1: we have one top headline. I'll get that one out

22
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: of the way, all Righteah, let's Soldell Beckham j I'm

23
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: not eve gonna play the drop right. Odell Beckham Jr.

24
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: Uh suspended for one game. So in your championship week

25
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 1: in standard scoring, we're talking about a guy in Odell

26
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: Beckham Jr. Who is the number one Fantasy wide receiver

27
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: in the game. Today. We're talking ninety catches uh what

28
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: four hundred yards just about thirteen receiving touchdowns. The man

29
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: has been an absolute animal this year and in championship

30
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: week don't got him because he got suspended week. You

31
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: couldn't have done this in a week eight? Right? So

32
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: does anybody want to play with fire and pick up

33
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: Ruben Randall in place of Odell? I want to play

34
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: with fire, you will get burned. Um. Um. I want

35
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 1: to play Will tie Yeah. I think Will tie yeah.

36
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: Will TIEX is pretty solid. Um. I think Marcus Wheaton,

37
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 1: if you're absolutely desperate against that Baltimore defense, not bad.

38
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: I think Albert Wilson is out there burd alert. Umlay

39
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: all those guys over Reuben Randall. Over Reuben Randall. I

40
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,119
Speaker 1: think I don't know if I play the bird alert over. Yeah,

41
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm I'm one of the top three Albert Wilson truths,

42
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: and I would I would not do that. I would

43
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: probably if I had to rank it, I would go

44
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: Ruben Randall, Marcus Wheaton and then Albert Wilson. Is there

45
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: any other plays out there that could really? I think

46
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 1: Travis Benjamin is still out there a little bit as well.

47
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: I don't mind that matchup. Sure, Jermaine Curse maybe, yeah,

48
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 1: Jermaine Curse is a good one. He's had a couple

49
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: of good games in row. And you're basically just you're

50
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: getting You're getting taking a slif. Honestly, this is what

51
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 1: this is what you're doing. You're probably Brown maybe, yeah,

52
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: Phillip Brown is not bad. I really honestly believe that. Maybe.

53
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: I think you're playing somebody on your bench. I don't

54
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: think you're playing the waiver wires on this one. If

55
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 1: you're an Odell Beckham junior owner, you're most likely playing

56
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: your bench. So there you go. I Yeah, sorry, guys,

57
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,839
Speaker 1: but we got no advice. You can't replace the number

58
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: one guy. You just can't do it. Um, But there

59
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: you go. So that's your top headline. Today's podcast is

60
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: going to be primarily focused on daily Fantasy, and if

61
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: you play daily Fantasy, you'll love this podcast. If you

62
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: don't like daily Fantasy, I'm telling you you're gonna like

63
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: this podcast to please stick around because look, we're gonna

64
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: explain how the game works. And really what we're doing

65
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: is we're talking about expectations for some of your big

66
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: name guys. So if you've got a Ben Roethlisberger, if

67
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: you've got a Cam Newton, if you've got Russell Wilson,

68
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: I'd say, well, we're gonna give you expectations for there

69
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: as well. It just happens to be will still be

70
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: plenty of nugs for other guys, but we're gonna spend

71
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: this one into daily Fantasy because for many fan players

72
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: out there, you might not be in a championship. If

73
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: you still have that fantasy itch, you want to scratch

74
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: it a little bit, right, the fantasy the fun way

75
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: to do it in very special episodes. It is a

76
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: special and I think too if I can speak on

77
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: just like the larger uh state of the DFS industry,

78
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: there's a lot of like misnomers about it and like

79
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: what it is or is not. But the good plating

80
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 1: thing is that it can be something for everybody, Like

81
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: if you just want to have fun with like a

82
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: few of your friends, like we did that for a

83
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: little bit, like we had a right Yeah, we had

84
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: a stronghold lay like franchise and the three of us

85
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: would play. You know, I wanted. I wanted every time,

86
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 1: but that's we did it like two weeks. I wanted

87
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: both times. So that's every time you raised a good

88
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 1: point because I I read an oral history like behind

89
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: the scenes that everybody probably has seen those commercials add nauseum,

90
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: and Bradley C was always the outlier because you only

91
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: it was like Bradley C is one dollars. That was

92
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: because he was just in a family like a family

93
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: and friends league, Like every Sunday he and his friends

94
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: would play together, not the crazy high stakes whatever. So

95
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: it's it's whatever you want to make it, and it's fun.

96
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: And as an analyst, it's really it's a like a

97
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 1: new challenging like puzzle to figure out absolutely it on

98
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: a weekly basis. And there's a lot of like psychological

99
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: impacts of it too. That we'll talk about as well.

100
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: So it's fun. So the basics of DFS daily Fantasy,

101
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: all right, There there's two different types of games you

102
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: can play. If we're talking fantasy football here, Okay, it's

103
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: either tournament or non tournament UM and MATT. In those

104
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: tournament games, it's a lot of players and UM and

105
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: basically only the you know what top um uh you

106
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 1: know basically get paid out, so you know. But in

107
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: non tournaments it's it's you know, yeah, sure, And like

108
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: they are head to heads, like just like a regular

109
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: fantasy game, well like like in your season long leagues,

110
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 1: it's just you and another person going to And there's

111
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: a difference in the way you want to approach constructing

112
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: your lineup for each one. Like for a tournament, you

113
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: want to go for more upside, more variants, like you're

114
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: willing to accept a I like the classic, like a

115
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: Ted gains a great example, like you know, he could

116
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: get you two points. You might not want to play

117
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: him in like a non tournament game, but in a

118
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: tournament you're okay with chasing that like two touchdown upside.

119
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: And because because like you said, it is so top

120
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: heavy to win. Right, So there's a big there's a

121
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: big difference there and the way you approached constructing the lineup,

122
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 1: and you want to go a little more safer like

123
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: a Julian Edelman or Jarvis Landry is a good like

124
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: non tournament play because they get a lot of targets,

125
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: they're really safe, they have a high floor. Maybe not

126
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: the same ceiling. So there's that's like a real basic

127
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: You'll you'll see more unique lineups in tournaments than you

128
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: will and the other ones because guys are trying to

129
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: to stand out and do something different that people might

130
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: not guess and you know got and where you really

131
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: see it. Of course you see it at wider saver

132
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: and running back, but quarterback to man. You see a

133
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: lot of crazy plays at quarterback in these tournament Uh

134
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: again crazy stacks, Yes, and stacks is a is a

135
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: common phrase and common terminology used in daily fantasy. Look,

136
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: it's basically just like um combo guys, right, so like

137
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,239
Speaker 1: if you've got Kerkuz since you want to play Jordan

138
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: read into Sean Jackson as well. Um, if you I

139
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 1: guess that's maybe not Astra make Kirk cousins Jordan read,

140
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: it's a very yeah, that's I was like, that's where

141
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: you started us. You got to be unique rock. We

142
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: laugh though about Kirk Cousins, but he's been like a

143
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: couple of those weeks, he's won people some tournaments. Yeah,

144
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: well last week I'm sure he probably helped out. And statistically,

145
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: like if you look at just like the top end

146
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: finishers and tournaments like the more more often it's like

147
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: the contrarian places. And we'll talk more about that later,

148
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: but like at quarterback, that's where you need to be

149
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: the most unique. So stacks are basically again combinations of

150
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: guys on the same same team against uh, you know,

151
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: on your on your roster there, Okay in the control

152
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: are you plan explain that very quickly? Yeah, well kind

153
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: of alluded to that earlier. Um, it's basically just like

154
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: differing from the field because you want to not have

155
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: the same lineup as everybody else because you're trying to,

156
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: you know, a standout from this large field tournament with

157
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: a bunch of entries. So you want to play a

158
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: guy like somebody coming off a bad week is a

159
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: really good contray and play because people are going to

160
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: be off of him. Well, there was a week, there

161
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: was Week three like that, I said that. I said

162
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill was a really good contryon play. I think

163
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: this was week three, but it was early in the season,

164
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: after he'd basically been disappointing people for the first two weeks.

165
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: Then he comes out and he has a three touchdown

166
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: game and he was like one percent owned in DFS.

167
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: That gives you a crazy advantage because not everybody else

168
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: is going to get that high score and you are,

169
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: and you know and everybody, and like, if you have

170
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: a super highly owned player in the tournament and he

171
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 1: lets you down, like if you were rostering Todd Gurley

172
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: for a while there and that was a guy that

173
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: everybody was on, You're you're not going anywhere. So it's

174
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: a huge difference maker in your lineup. But you also

175
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: have to be smart about it, Like you can't play

176
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: like Devin Hester is a contry you want to have.

177
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 1: Imagine also on the flip side, if you because maybe

178
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: this what's your appetite and you research it more. Another

179
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: term on the flip side of traying is like fading

180
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: comes into play when, like DeVonta Freeman went on his

181
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: huge streak earlier in the year, people were trying to

182
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: wonder when is the week to fade him, because once

183
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: it gets to that point, you don't want to everybody's

184
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: gonna be on a player. You have to figure out

185
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,079
Speaker 1: the point where it's appropriate to back off and find

186
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: other plays, and that's where you find your contraing plays.

187
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 1: All right. So with that introduction out of the way,

188
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: let's just talk about some of our favorite plays this week.

189
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: Um in DFS, Matt Harm, give me a quarterback you like, man? Um, Well,

190
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: we talked about contrarian plan. I'll go right off the

191
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: top one and it's uh, it's Aaron Rodgers. Uh, you know.

192
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: And this is kind of interesting because he's been such

193
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: a disappointing player for season long players and we're talking

194
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: about DFS right now. For a lot of these guys

195
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: that are getting just got kicked out of their season

196
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: long league, they're like, oh, Aaron Rodgers, he got me

197
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 1: this many point, you know, ten point one points right

198
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: in in week fifteen. I don't want to play that

199
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: guy in DFS. He's gonna be super low owned. His

200
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: value is lower than it has been any at any

201
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: point in the last two years, I think. So it's

202
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: a really good time to get on him, especially in

203
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: a game against the Cardinals that could easily turn into

204
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 1: a shootout. The Cardinals. Opponents playing the Cardinals have averaged

205
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: thirty six pass attempts per game, which is more than

206
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: the league average at any point ever in in the

207
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: history of football. I mean, there's a there's a lot

208
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: of reasons not to play Aaron Rodgers, of course, and

209
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: we list those reasons, you know, to the high heavens

210
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: in regular fantasy, because quite frankly, he doesn't have the targets,

211
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: the offensive line is banged up. Um, it's it's it's

212
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: on paper, not a great matchup. But this is why

213
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: this is where daily fantasy becomes very intriguing. Well, and

214
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: the thing is too, we're talking with us on the

215
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: walk up with Rogers. You don't want to pick him

216
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 1: and play him with James Jones or somebody. You don't

217
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: know where his touchdowns are gonna go. This could be

218
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: a two touchdown justin Parillo games. But if you have

219
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 1: have Aaron Rodgers in your lineup, you still get those points.

220
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: So alright, what about a Gil Hark, Give me a quarterback?

221
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: You know, I was looking at this list on the

222
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: way up here, and a guy I kind of circled

223
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: was Matthew Stafford that the Jim Bob Cootter offense has

224
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: been a lot more aggressive. Stafford has had pretty solid games.

225
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: He had a couple does, but I think he's had

226
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: six team plus standard Fantasy points in his last like

227
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: five or six games. And he's had huge games too

228
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: with Jim Bob Cooter calling the shots. Uh, the San

229
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: Francisco defense, I really don't like home road splits, but

230
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: for whatever reason this year, they are the one that

231
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: suffers a lot more on the road. They're allowing almost

232
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: five more fantasy points per game too opposing quarterbacks when

233
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: they're on the road. So you put Matt Stafford, Golden Tate,

234
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: the rest of that offense on the fast track, and

235
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: ford Field. I think he'll probably be a middling guy.

236
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: He's not gonna a ton of people are gonna be

237
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: chasing him, but he I think he could be a

238
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: solid play and he's a value where you can get

239
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: some bigger name like wide receivers and stuff into your

240
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 1: lineup to I'm gonna think a look at Teddy Bridgewater

241
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: this week. Really, you know, wow, I know, um one,

242
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe it is kind of chasing the

243
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: hot hand a little bit after what he did that

244
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: last week. But he's going up against that Giants defense

245
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: and we saw that secondary just get towards repeatedly this year.

246
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: Uh quarterbacks are completing passes at a rain of about

247
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: sixty five against this group. They're pretty good a ton

248
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 1: have you given up more passing yards than anybody in

249
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: the NFL this year, and you know, wild Bridgewater can

250
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: be inconsistent. I think there's an opportunity for him if

251
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: he is really starting to kind of figure out this

252
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 1: offense late in the year, maybe he puts up a

253
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: big number. And we were actually kind of joking, but

254
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: there is some truth to it. Maybe he's the new

255
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: Mr December. You know, we saw it a little bit

256
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 1: two years, did it right? We saw the end of

257
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: last year from Bridgewater where that that was kind of

258
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: why we all got excited about him this year. Then

259
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: obviously had the big week last last week. So maybe

260
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 1: maybe he's the new Mr December. That's interesting. You know.

261
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 1: The one reason I would I'm not that confident in

262
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater. It's still a low, uh low number of

263
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: past attempts that he throws, low volume passing attack man.

264
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: What is the twenty pass attempt that's what he had

265
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: last I've touchdowns, five total touchdowns. Yeah, but before that,

266
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: I'm any pass attempts. Before that, he was throwing quite

267
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: a bit more than he was averaging, like a closer

268
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: to thirty like the last month or so. Before that. Um, boy,

269
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: it's funny nobody here mentioned the big guys right like,

270
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: you know, Russell Wilson has just been Yeah, we wanted

271
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: to get some more interesting for a little bit here, sure,

272
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: Big Ben, Antonio Brown, Martevis Bryant. You want to talk

273
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: about a stack against Baltimore that is just unbelievable. Cam

274
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,719
Speaker 1: Newton's got um a pretty good matchup against eight the

275
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 1: A T I you know, look, their corners are pretty good.

276
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 1: But it seems like to me the Falcons are starting

277
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: to give up a little bit. Uh, And I do

278
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 1: wonder if Cam will take advantage of that. And quite honestly,

279
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: I mean, nobody's been able to stop Camp period. Um.

280
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 1: But I think I gotta think there's gonna be a

281
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: lot of teams out there, a lot of rosters that

282
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: are gonna feature, um, those guys from Duval taken on

283
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 1: New Orleans, and there's gonna be a lot of Blake

284
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: Bordal plays out there as well. Yeah, for sure are um.

285
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 1: One thing we didn't mention in the stacking segment, which

286
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: is a super important and I've a lot of There's

287
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: been a lot more in depth research this year, Kanns

288
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,719
Speaker 1: and something I've been employing a lot lately is to

289
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: stack opposing passing games, so like in games that you

290
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: project are going to become shootouts, like for example, the

291
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: Lions and Saints last week, I had a lot of

292
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: players going that were also that we're you know, I

293
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: had like a Matt Stafford and Golden Tate stack, and

294
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: then I had Brandon Cooks or Ben Watson on the

295
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: other side. Because if there's a high correlation, if one

296
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: passing game goes off, the other one's going to go off,

297
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: which you just naturally assume because you're gonna have to

298
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 1: chase points. So and that's a great game to do

299
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: that too. Again to the Saints, we know they have

300
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: a bad defense. You get Blake Bortles and Allen Robinson

301
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: or even Blake Bortles and Alan Hearns or Julius Thomas,

302
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: any of those guys, and then you put Cooks, Watson

303
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: those other guys on the other side. I have a

304
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: question with that matchup, how do you feel about that

305
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 1: correlation if it's Matt Flynn went limp noodle arming the

306
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: rock around instead of Drew Brees slinging in and there. Yeah,

307
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: see that, Like seriously, that guy looks like it's like

308
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: a loose trebischet throwing the football around. Lets it go. Yeah,

309
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 1: that kind of stinks. And that's another reason that, Um,

310
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: if you can get in on a tournament that has, uh,

311
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: the Washington and Philadelphia game, I actually kind of like

312
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: doing it in that game a little bit better, um,

313
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: having some cousins and Jackson and the like. Art's yeah,

314
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: and Earth's probably the only that's that's who do you

315
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: pick from the Eagles? You're gonna ride with? Jordan math Well,

316
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: I don't either one of those Well, in either one

317
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: of those rosters, though, You're just you'll play Read. I

318
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: mean it's fine. I mean, I mean just because you're

319
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: you're you're stacking these rosters up doesn't necessarily mean you

320
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: gotta make bad plays. As you mentioned, Alex Yalhar, Jordan

321
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 1: Read has been a very very strong place, especially in

322
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 1: these um especially in these leaks where where PPR is

323
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: relatively the standard format, uh for either tournament or non tournament.

324
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: But but man, I'll tell you I love that. I

325
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: love that Washington Philly game. It's not bad, it's good.

326
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: It's good, which you should all watch on NFL Network.

327
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: By the way, on Saturday Saturday. Sorry, I heard the

328
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: steps of Shadowy leak figures. We were talking about that

329
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 1: game so much and didn't mention that it was on

330
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: NFL Network, NFL Network, Eastern NFL Networks. Should be a

331
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: good game, there's a lot of steak. Sam Bradford has

332
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: actually been playing a lot better. I'm not going to

333
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: play him in defensive regular fans, but I actually don't

334
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: think he's a bad play again being contrary and going

335
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: for like a low value quarterback that opens up a

336
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: lot of other stuff for you. I mean, I know

337
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: he's pretty bad, but but I mean, like, yeah, no,

338
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: it offers you a lot. But the problem is, like

339
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: there's like not a lot of tournaments available where that

340
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: where those games are on the slate. Same with the

341
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: Thursday games. So going back to Sunday there, Like you said,

342
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: I do love the I do love Blake Bards on this,

343
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: but he's gonna be super, super pop. How about in

344
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: another game that could turn into a shootout? Uh, New

345
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: England versus New York. I love that. I was just

346
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: about to ask you, is Tom Brady contry and play? See?

347
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 1: I he's tough to like, tough to get a beat

348
00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: on this week. But the good thing about him though is,

349
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: and we talked about stacking. Sometimes it's good to play

350
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 1: the quarterback as they call naked in DF when you

351
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: don't pay him with a player. Hold on, I have

352
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 1: I have a thought. What about Tom Brady, James White stack,

353
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 1: Adal is injured, Edelman probably won't play till weeks seventeen.

354
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: James White's filming that Dean Lewis roll the best he can,

355
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 1: could run a lot of those short intermediate routes, get

356
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: all those passes, some red zone targets. Love it just

357
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 1: started out there. I I I'm cool with that. Again,

358
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: Just know what's what where you're playing. Like some sites

359
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: are PPR, some are so just make sure you that.

360
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 1: And and he's obviously got a bigger like a higher

361
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 1: floor on PPR. I mean, I feel like I feel

362
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: like the thing with Tom Brady is that the Tom

363
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 1: Brady we have seen probably the back half of this

364
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 1: season was has almost been like early career Tom Brady

365
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 1: in the sense that he's yeah, but from a fantasy perspective,

366
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 1: he's not giving you a lot. I mean, I think

367
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,479
Speaker 1: he's been right around eighteen nineteen points most of these weeks,

368
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 1: team points the last two weeks. I mean, so he's

369
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: been running around there right which obviously the Patriots are winning.

370
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: He's playing good quality football on the field, But in

371
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: terms of a fantasy quarterback, I think there are a

372
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: lot better options out there. Let's why. I like that

373
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,199
Speaker 1: guy on the other side of the ball on that

374
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: one too, Ryan Fitzpatrick. Yeah, Okay, Fitzpatrick's great too, because

375
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: he has that's a super highly concentrated passing offense. It

376
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: really only flows through two guys, Decker and Marshall. Again,

377
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: that's that's a really good offense, which and like the

378
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: last time they played UH in Week seven, Fitzpatrick still

379
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: put over twenty fantasy points, but neither Decker nor Marshall

380
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: had a touchdown. It's kind of an outlier game. Chris

381
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 1: Ivory caught one and Jeremy Curley called the other. But

382
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: as we've seen recently, like those those two are dominating

383
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,719
Speaker 1: that passing attack. There's a good chance, especially with how

384
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: important this game is for the Jets and with their

385
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: offense running through the past more like Powell has been

386
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 1: out snapping and out touching Chris Ivory lately. Could be

387
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 1: a good game for Ryan Fitzpatrick at well as well.

388
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,719
Speaker 1: And he's a better value than than guys like Brady

389
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 1: or Cam or big Ben. All right, so let's throw

390
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: valuation out. I want to know from you, gentlemen, who

391
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: do you see as the highest scoring quarterback period this week?

392
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: Who I'm gonna go with Ben Roethlisberger against that Ravens defense.

393
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 1: I mean one, that offense is just clicking like we

394
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: haven't seen in a while. I mean, everybody's getting involved

395
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: in Tonio Brown, Martavis Bryant, Marcus Wheaton Um and they

396
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: get to face arguably the worst secondary in the NFL

397
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 1: right now. I think Roethlisberger might drop five or six

398
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 1: touchdowns this week. It might be very true. And it

399
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: seems as if that Pittsburgh offense doesn't know what to

400
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: do except pass. I mean really, it's it's a little

401
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 1: bit like Jacksonville Blake Bortles. I mean, especially with a

402
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: bang up, two bank up running backs. I don't think

403
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: they know what to do other than throw the rock. Honest,

404
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: Angel has been playing great, but the Baltimore run defense

405
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 1: is great. I I I think I have Roethlisberger number

406
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 1: one of my rankings, and I think I peg him

407
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: is the highest scoring. Yeah. I mean it's pretty chalky

408
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: to say Cam Newton. Um, I think that this game

409
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 1: between Carolina and Atlanta is gonna be a lot closer

410
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: this time or than it was last time. Um. Also,

411
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: you know, just because it is in Atlanta. Um, the

412
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,439
Speaker 1: Falcons kind of sort of for them, found a groove

413
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: last week against Jacksonville. I also think a little bit

414
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 1: of hashtag narrative street here the Panthers, I honestly expect.

415
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: I know I came out seething about this in the

416
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: living room last night. Go yeah, you were on fire.

417
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 1: I was. I was upset. Um. But I think that

418
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 1: the Panthers are are gonna come in a little flat

419
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: in this game. They're gonna be distracted by what's gone

420
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: on in the media with all the Beckham and Norman stuff,

421
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 1: this weets and everything. So I think that the Falcons

422
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: can come out and score a couple of points, which

423
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: is good for Cam because last time I mean he wasn't.

424
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: He's been the highest scoring quarterback three the last five weeks.

425
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 1: One of them was not in the Atlanta game because

426
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 1: they got out to such an early leave. I'd be okay,

427
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: by the way, if the Panthers came out with like

428
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: a nerf bat straight up, no more like a whiffle

429
00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: bat or something like. That's not cool. It's a lot

430
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: of objects. Now I have one more question before we

431
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:09,679
Speaker 1: move on from quarterback. Okay, who's making a Zach Mettenburger lineup? Alright?

432
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: Moving on alright? For jokes, I will say this. I

433
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: think there's an there's an interesting um. It's very top

434
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 1: heavy at quarterback this week. Big Ben's got a great matchup.

435
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: Cam Newton has not been able to be stopped. Blake

436
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: Bortles has an on real matchup, and Russell Wilson too.

437
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 1: Man Russell Wilson also has been on fire as of late.

438
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 1: I think Tom Brady versus the Jets, the Jets secondary

439
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: extremely overrated at this point in the season. Well Revis

440
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 1: has come back and that helped though they were getting

441
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 1: they were getting hosed. When it helped against Kellen Moore.

442
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 1: Well still, he played the game before and that helped

443
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: a little bit too. If I just think the secondary

444
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: has been extremely overrated. In the early part of the season,

445
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 1: they were just I mean it was like, you know,

446
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,360
Speaker 1: trying to throw against brick walls. But I think it's

447
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: been a lot more pliable as of late. Uh. And

448
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: Tom Brady gets up for this game, man, he really

449
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 1: does um and I do believe, and as you mentioned,

450
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: the Jets can score the points to the New England

451
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: defense is nothing right. It's gonna be fascinating. Yeah, I

452
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: like it a lot. I can't wait to watch it.

453
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's gonna be very very top heavy, I

454
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:16,439
Speaker 1: really truly honest, like of non tournament leagues will have

455
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 1: big Bend cam roster, Tom Brady right or and Blake Portles.

456
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: But so there you go. All right, let's go to

457
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: the running back position. Favorite play there, Matt Harman. This

458
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: is tough this week because well you mentioned it's the

459
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 1: top heavy week at quarterback and this is kind of

460
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: that kind of makes me want to, at least in

461
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,959
Speaker 1: one of my running back spots go down to one

462
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 1: of these backup guys, Like there's Kristin Michael out there,

463
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 1: and like, oh, I'm so ready to buy it him

464
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 1: Christ And like, I'm not even a full blown truther,

465
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: but the guy might. And that's the thing, Like, do

466
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,239
Speaker 1: not play him in a non tournament line. He's only

467
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: a tournament played from me, which is tough because he's

468
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 1: such a value I want to play him. It's in

469
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: a good matchup. The Rams defense has really fallen apart.

470
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,479
Speaker 1: It's in Seattle. When you're looking at running back plays two,

471
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: you want to focus on home teams and teams that

472
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: are projected to win because there's just a strong correlation

473
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 1: to that. All right, let's try out a pick. Okay,

474
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna not gonna go with it and expect

475
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go with a value running back here.

476
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Angelo Williams. Actually, Um, he's

477
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: just one of the safest plays around right now. Um

478
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: he's never as highly owned as he should be. And

479
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: I think people are gonna rightly so are gonna be

480
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: all over you know, the Roethlisberger, the Bryant's, the Browns

481
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: because of the passing game matchup. But one thing that

482
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: we've seen with Williams. We saw this in the Seattle game,

483
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,880
Speaker 1: we saw it in the Denver game. Because that offense

484
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: is so freaking good. He gets so many scoring opportunities,

485
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 1: he gets receptions out of the backfield, just like he's

486
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 1: the last two weeks is he's been the only running

487
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: back to touch the ball in Pittsburgh and that's just

488
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: that's a really safe thing. So again, he's he's more

489
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: of a non You could blame him in tournaments too,

490
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: but I think he's a non tournament play too because

491
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 1: he's so safe. He's got a great volume, and he's

492
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: gonna score mark Uh. You know, I'm I'm kind of

493
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: on on Harmon's wavelength theory about not going value and

494
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 1: I'm looking at David Johnson just because he does so

495
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: many different things. I mean, you talk about a home

496
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: team that that could win there and especially in again

497
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: that could be high scoring but also could be fairly close.

498
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: I expect one, you know, Johnson should catch some passes,

499
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: which will help in any of the PPR format, Also

500
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: that they could lean on him to try and close

501
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 1: that game out if they need to. And just watching

502
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 1: him on the field, we all know he's just this

503
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: freakish combination of speed, size, and power. Um, the only

504
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: worry with him is that after that performance he put

505
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: in a primetime game, he's gonna be in like everything.

506
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 1: That's probably that's that's the only downside. That's the downside too.

507
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: But you know, I looked at the I mean, we

508
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: don't know, we we do rankings, like you look at

509
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: the what the running back matchups this week? And I

510
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,919
Speaker 1: want to face So, I mean, this is one that

511
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 1: I feel like you can plug in and you can

512
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,719
Speaker 1: at least feel confident that you're gonna get some production there. Right,

513
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: what about like Carmen? What's that real quick? Like that

514
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: with guys like this, because there's also the case where

515
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: you want to go away, but you also don't want

516
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 1: to miss out on the scoring bonanza. Right In some lineups,

517
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 1: like last week, Johnson was really high owned because he

518
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: was more of a value last week than he was

519
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,400
Speaker 1: this week. He's actually jumped up eleven uh this week,

520
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: so that's but he's but the ownership percentage is going

521
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: to go up with that because he just scored forty

522
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 1: something points. So it's a tough thing. I wouldn't go

523
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: like last week, I went almost full David Johnson. I

524
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,400
Speaker 1: wouldn't go full David Johnson. Term want to get some Yeah,

525
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,439
Speaker 1: but you want to get some and if you go

526
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,919
Speaker 1: with Johnson, then you need that's the onus is on

527
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: you to then go contraining in some other spots. So

528
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: it's it's that again. That's the fun challenge if DFS

529
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,640
Speaker 1: is like, you can make multiple lineups and you can

530
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 1: play with the puzzle in different ways. All Right, I've

531
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:48,719
Speaker 1: got some value ones here since which worked out well,

532
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: since you guys went the opposite direction. There you go

533
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: one of them. And it pains me to talk about him,

534
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: but Rashan Jennings, I thought it was David gonna be

535
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: David cofor shut up roasted. Uh okay, Soean Jennings has

536
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: thirty eight carries. Actually the last two weeks he's averaged

537
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 1: over twenty touches a game. Uh, he's where were my

538
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: notes on this? Oh my god? Alright, So the Minnesota defense,

539
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 1: like the run defense, like people think it's a great

540
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: defense on paper. They're probably gonna get back Linval Joseph

541
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 1: and Anthony Barr this week, but they're still not a regardless.

542
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,919
Speaker 1: They've allowed four point two yards per carry in over

543
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: a hundred twenty yards per game through their last five games. Uh,

544
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: and they've allowed ten plus fantasy points to the running

545
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: back position and all of those games as well. So

546
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: Jennings in this offense that now is gonna be sans

547
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,199
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham might focus on the run a little bit

548
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 1: more pound the rock, you know, slow the game down.

549
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: I think if you're looking, especially in non PPR sites,

550
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: is where he is a better value because he also

551
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: has that touchdown upside and assuming prey to the fantasy gods,

552
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:48,880
Speaker 1: they don't try to run Andre Williams from the one

553
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: yard line. Uh rash Jennings, I think is a decent,

554
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 1: decent play. He actually do like. I do like that

555
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 1: play this week. I mean I think he's he's been

556
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: better and he's been getting a larger share there. I

557
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,239
Speaker 1: I think that's a good play. And now one more

558
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: quick what I'm talking values. Look even farther down Mike

559
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 1: Gilliesley in Buffalo, that's gonna be it's gonna be a

560
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: committee between But I love the Sean Lashawn is not there.

561
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 1: But especially if we're talking tournaments, he's a value. You

562
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,439
Speaker 1: can get some bigger pieces in there. He's got the

563
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,880
Speaker 1: he's got the big play upside, and I actually I'm

564
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 1: being the ultimate company man here. Uh per Next Gen's

565
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: stats Rlos Williams h in his first game backs from injury,

566
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 1: only reached the top speed of fifteen point three miles

567
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: per hour. Gillessly. Obviously it was on his big touchdowns,

568
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,239
Speaker 1: but cross the twenty one mark. So he's the more

569
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 1: explosive back. He's got the higher touchdown upside. And Williams

570
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: just doesn't look the same as he's nursing that shoulder

571
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: injury right now. So Carri's could get split down the middle.

572
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 1: But if you're looking for a guy that could return

573
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: more value and a lie, you get some bigger pieces

574
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 1: into your lineup, I think Gilllessly is the way to go. Yeah,

575
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 1: Gillisly is interesting. I'll give you one. I think Church

576
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 1: Anddrick West against Cleveland. Um, you know he's kind of

577
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: that mid value guy. I really really like the matchup Casey.

578
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: We talked about teams playing at home, Casey playing at home.

579
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 1: Andy Reid has just done a great job of coaching

580
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: up running backs in Charkeyndrick West to me, Um, I

581
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 1: know that the specter of Spencer Ware looms large, but

582
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: I just think Church Anddrick West is a is a

583
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 1: very good play strong play here, and you don't have

584
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: to break the bank necessarily, uh to go get a

585
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: guy like that. We talked about James White a little bit,

586
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: but man, James White too, given the valuation that he

587
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: has um in PPR formats, Gosh, it's gonna be hard

588
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: to go for me. It's gonna be hard to go

589
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: away from James White. I like I was gonna say, dude,

590
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 1: I'm all about like pal to even in non PPR. Yeah. Well,

591
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: because he's getting scoring opportunities, he's chewing red zone snaps.

592
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: I mean, Chris Ivory just doesn't look good right now. Yeah,

593
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: I know it stinks, um. But also, like we talked

594
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 1: about game script and game flow, and game script is

595
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 1: super important to these DFS matchups, super big because you

596
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: gotta project whether it's gonna be a you know, run

597
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: heavy script or pass heavy script. I think, like we

598
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: mentioned this New England and Green New England and New York, um,

599
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 1: so that could easily turn into a shootout, which is

600
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 1: a total ballou pal game script. I won't be surprised

601
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 1: if he plays like at least six of the snaps.

602
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: I can't remember what it was last week, but I

603
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: would be surprised if it's not even skewed more heavily

604
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: to Pale. Alright, so we we talked. I know, Christen Michael,

605
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 1: how do you guys feel about cameronartist Pain. Oh? Um,

606
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: you know again, if you go buy games script, if

607
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 1: Carolina just jumped out a huge lead, uh, they may

608
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: want to you know, assault away that big lead. They've

609
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 1: had a nasty habit of letting teams back in though,

610
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 1: So it's it's interesting to me cameronist Pain was a

611
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: very effective back, especially in college. Um, I just I

612
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: thought it was a weird pick quite honestly for for Carolina,

613
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 1: because I thought his skill set did not really jive

614
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 1: with what Carolina likes to do, which is that you know,

615
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: real power run game. And Cameron was paid to me,

616
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: wasn't that guy at Auburn? But yeah, man, I could

617
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: see that as a pretty solid play nine plus total

618
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: yards in a situation where he had to split carries.

619
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: It's not bad. Here's one that nobody mentioned that that

620
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 1: I love and it's this is so vomit inducing here,

621
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: Alfred Blue. Why it's not a bad pick about the

622
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: Alfred I thought you were coming up with Alfred Moore's

623
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: gross Were you crazy? I'm not that crazy quick for

624
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: your Blue tantent, just to finish our point on the

625
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: Ivory blow powle thing. Since Powell came back from injury

626
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: in week eleven, he's had six touches in the red

627
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:41,719
Speaker 1: zone forty eight yards, two touchdowns, Ivory eight touches, ten yards,

628
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 1: no scores. So he's getting those almost the same amount

629
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 1: of opportunities and he's been far more effective with him.

630
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: So harmon take the floor Alfred Blue. So we know

631
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: that Blue had one game with just four touches. In

632
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: the next game, he didn't play a snap. But we

633
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 1: were all like, oh hooray, the witch is dead because

634
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: nobody likes Alfred Blue because he's not that good. No,

635
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: we wanted to. We wanted to. Well, I mean, I'm

636
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: sure people like, I'm sure he's a good dude. I

637
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 1: would love to hang out with Alfred Blue, I like everybody.

638
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: Um no, that's not true. Um but so like, But

639
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 1: then Bill O'Brien came out right after that zero snap

640
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: game and was like, this was just because of an injury.

641
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: Blue is still our guy. We're not really messing around

642
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: with Chris Polk And he was actually telling the truth

643
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: because he came out and had twenty carries. The next

644
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,239
Speaker 1: game against the Colts went over a hundred yards. And

645
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: I don't see any reason why the Texans won't be

646
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: on that same game script against the Titans and Zach Mettenberger,

647
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: who is terrible. Um, they should jump out to a lead.

648
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:39,959
Speaker 1: That means Blue will again probably approached twenty carries against

649
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: the defense that allows the eight most fantasy points to

650
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: running backs over the last four weeks. Can I ask

651
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,959
Speaker 1: you a question, why is it necessarily true that Houston

652
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: would jump out to a big lead against Tennessee. Who

653
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 1: is Houston's quarterback? But it doesn't it's Brandon Weed And

654
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: but Brandon Weed next such a gross game, I know,

655
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: but that and in Houston and in US games, sometimes

656
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: weird things can happen, but oftentimes it just means that

657
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: it's going to be a defense and running back heavy games.

658
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: Can I just can I just say this, I can't

659
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: get behind any player in the Houston Tennessee game. And

660
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 1: let me explain why. It has nothing to do with stats.

661
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 1: I don't want to watch that game. I don't there's

662
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 1: your that's the analysis you come here for, Gus. I mean,

663
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: here's the thing fantasy is about. Fun, is it not?

664
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: I mean, like, let me watch a good game and

665
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: then also be invested in other reasons fantasy purpose. I

666
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 1: would watch that interest. I would want to watch. I

667
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: would want to watch. I want to see if Delaney

668
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: Walker whither tipped pass for a touchdown. But that that run,

669
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: that catch and run he had? Who was that sick?

670
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: Who was that poor guy? Patrick Chung? Yeah? Oh god,

671
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: he truck Chung and then he threw somebody else down.

672
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: But Chung not only did he truck I mean he

673
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: earl Campbell Chung and and Chung got hurt by his

674
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: own guy because his own guy was coming in for

675
00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 1: the tackle and like got his helmet and just say, hey,

676
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 1: scer has been narrative, street buddy. It doesn't matter. He

677
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 1: got hurt. He got hurt after he got trucked. Happened?

678
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: Did it happen? He got trucked and then he got hurt.

679
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: That's the narrative I like to go with. All Right,

680
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 1: I got another guy to throw real quick to. Not

681
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 1: a sexy name either, but Tim high Tower is a

682
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 1: good one. I think is a decent play especially and

683
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 1: not well, holy you were you were making your face.

684
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 1: But the reason is he's like a volume play. It's

685
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: not a great one. But even in a game on

686
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 1: Monday night where they were down early and it was

687
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 1: past heavy, he still saw seventies six percent of the touches.

688
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: But again, what about what happens if Matt Flynn play,

689
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 1: then they might try to established the run earlier. Well,

690
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: I guess Jacksonvills kind of got a sneaky underrated run defense,

691
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: but so did Detroit, and he still put up a decent,

692
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,959
Speaker 1: numb sat line against them. Scored um, he he scored

693
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: like three times, didn't he? He got in the end

694
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 1: zone three times. I think that's accurate to say. So. Yeah,

695
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: I mean, like the thing is I was I was

696
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 1: worried about him last week because Detroit had actually been

697
00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:00,239
Speaker 1: really good against the run Todd Gurley game notwithstanding. But

698
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: it's not the sexiest play. But if you're looking for value,

699
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 1: I wouldn't play him in the tournament, but I like

700
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 1: other formats for sure. I'm okay with that because he's

701
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: gonna get volume. Alright, let's go to the wide receiver position. Here,

702
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: give me a favorite play, Alex galehar oh jeez, I

703
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 1: didn't even flip my page. It's Okay, let me get

704
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: a lot of crappy running backs there are right, I

705
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,879
Speaker 1: had stroll through a lot of so many bad running backs.

706
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,439
Speaker 1: Let's see who do I like this week? Uh, why

707
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,839
Speaker 1: don't we just start with Martavis Bryant. Okay, we were

708
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: talking about that game. We've talked about the Pittsburgh offense

709
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: a lot. Martevis has been kind of quiet the last

710
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 1: few weeks too, So I don't know narrative street. He's

711
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: ready to explode wherever you want to think about it.

712
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 1: Bad secondary, great offense. He's a freak of nature. I

713
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 1: just think everything is combined for him to have one

714
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: of those games where it's like a twenty point you know,

715
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:51,439
Speaker 1: hundred forty yard three catch, two touchdown thrashing. It could.

716
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 1: I could see it. I could absolutely. And obviously Antonio

717
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 1: Brown just a strong play non tournament formats, especially in

718
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: that PPR situation where you know the guy could get

719
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 1: another ten twenty catches. It's just it's if you played

720
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: him last week, it wasn't fair. It wasn't fair. He

721
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: put up a fifty spot. It was not in uh

722
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: in certain DFS lineups, Man, I'm like fifty. He was

723
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,399
Speaker 1: not highly owned either, I'm pretty sure he was under

724
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: ten percent because of the matchup, because of the hip

725
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: that Denver matchup. Yeah, man, um, all right, he's like

726
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: he's playing at a Hall of Fame level right now.

727
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: It seems like Twitter wants to change whoever the best

728
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,439
Speaker 1: receiver in the league is every week. But it's Antonio Brown.

729
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 1: It's not a question to me. It's been for the

730
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: last couple of years too. I think he's like the

731
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he is the pinnacle of wide receiver play,

732
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:39,240
Speaker 1: which is so cool that he's like not, It's like five,

733
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 1: isn't He's not a super Remember two years ago when

734
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace left Pittsburgh, people like, can Antonio Brown? That

735
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: is so cute thinking about that man? And he really

736
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: filled that role with Mike Wallace. And it was great

737
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 1: too because Pittsburgh wanted to give the contract to Wallace

738
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 1: and then when he was like, nah, man, I want

739
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 1: more money, They're like, we'll just give the same one

740
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 1: to Brown. Yeah, crushed it. From everything we could tell

741
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: to Antonio Brown seems like a pretty cool dude. Um.

742
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: You know, Harmon, we could discuss this all day, but

743
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 1: you know, there's at least a conversation as to who

744
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: is the best because Anthony L. Brown's got Ben Roethlisberger, man,

745
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:19,760
Speaker 1: like DeAndre Hopkins has dealt with just garbage. I I agree.

746
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: I mean, no, I think it's worth a conversation. But

747
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 1: I think Brown is just doing things right now that

748
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 1: nobody else is doing. And I get it that he

749
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 1: has the quarterback and that helps his numbers and all that,

750
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: and a running game and a second wider over for sure.

751
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 1: I mean he's in just a great offense. I think

752
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: we've seen Hopkins, though, like make some like miss I

753
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,760
Speaker 1: like mistakes of late, like that Monday night game against

754
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: the Bengals, there were a few drops and miscus. Again

755
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 1: we're picking nits and all that. But Brown, like you

756
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:50,320
Speaker 1: know you talk about like reception perception, he just broke

757
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: the mold like all. You know. His success writer against

758
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 1: his own coverage was it was like ten points higher

759
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: than everybody else almost, Like can think about it. You

760
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 1: mentioned the mistakes. When's the last time I can't remember

761
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 1: the last time I saw like Antonio Brown have like

762
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:08,240
Speaker 1: a bad drop or something like that. I got you, alright,

763
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 1: favorite wide receiver play Mark scrant Uh looking, I mean

764
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 1: I looked at Marcus wheat, and I think that's kind

765
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 1: of one of a deeper, you know, sort of a

766
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:21,320
Speaker 1: tournament play there, but right above that, Okay, Tyler Lockett,

767
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 1: I think, you know it is, has been just as

768
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,360
Speaker 1: hot as Doug Baldwin, and he's kind of gotten a

769
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: lot of the Baldwin's gotten a lot of the attention

770
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 1: for what he's done. I mean, when you're when you're

771
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,800
Speaker 1: doing things that have only also been done by Jerry Rice,

772
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:35,879
Speaker 1: you are bound to get a lot of attention. But

773
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,919
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett has been right on his heels as long

774
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,439
Speaker 1: as Russell Wilson has been hot. And I think as

775
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 1: Baldwin starts to draw more attention, then Lockett starts to

776
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: open up a little bit more. And now he's gonna

777
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 1: be a guy who isn't you know. He's not gonna

778
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: put up a ten catch game for you more than likely,

779
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,120
Speaker 1: but he can get you five or six catches, can

780
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 1: put up you know, ninety yards and end up in

781
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 1: the end zone one time, and so he and it

782
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 1: allows you a little more roster flexibility. You're not going to,

783
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: you know, use a lot of your resources on Tyler Lockett,

784
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: so you can possibly go big somewhere else in your lineup?

785
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: How about a Mann Harman. Yeah, my guy is a

786
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: guy who came through from me last week, and I

787
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: think he's in another really good spot and it's Golden Tate.

788
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 1: Um scored two touchdowns last week. I don't think people

789
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: have really realized how big of a change his season

790
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 1: has undergone since Jim Bob Couder took over as the

791
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, which I think was around week eight, right

792
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 1: he took over, I think it was nine, and then

793
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,479
Speaker 1: they had to by ten. They still got boat raced

794
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,239
Speaker 1: in week nine and they came back from the by

795
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: and that's when it really picked up. Okay, well, so

796
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 1: since week ten or since week eight, Golden Tate has

797
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: twelve red zone targets, which is of the team, and

798
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,840
Speaker 1: he scored five red zone touchdowns and caught of his

799
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: passes inside the twenty yard line. That is outrageous usage

800
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: for a guy who is, you know, a smaller receiver,

801
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: but they love just given him that quick at route

802
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 1: or the screen in the red zone. It's really and

803
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: like Matt Stafford's red zone passing numbers have been outrageous

804
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 1: this year simply because of Golden Tate. And so you

805
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: talk about a guy. And he also, since that time,

806
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 1: has the same exact amount of targets as Calvin Johnson,

807
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,280
Speaker 1: who we all know has been a big letdown. UM,

808
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: Tate is still super super undervalued. Um, He's a guy

809
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 1: that you can get in and you can fit a

810
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 1: ton of studs around him, but you're getting basically, like,

811
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 1: you know, a huge percentage chance of a touchdown, which

812
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 1: is key again in tournaments and in cash I'm sorry whatever.

813
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: Uh So in tournament tournament games, you can get a

814
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 1: guy who's got a good amount of volume as well,

815
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,240
Speaker 1: so he really checks all the boxes. I I really

816
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: like Golden Tate this week and probably going forward. Well,

817
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 1: Detroit taken on San Francisco the matchup exactly icing on

818
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 1: the cake there and Detroit again one of those teams

819
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,399
Speaker 1: that can't run the ball effectively and when they get

820
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 1: around the end zone they don't know what to do

821
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,279
Speaker 1: than throw the ball. Golden Tate almost becomes like a

822
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, almost like a de facto passing down

823
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: back kind of you know, possessional dude that they like.

824
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 1: An extended handoff is the phrase I'm looking for, um,

825
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 1: But can I make one counter argument to that? This

826
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: is the thing sometimes when guys like Calvin Johnson. Uh.

827
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: And A lot has been made of the decline of

828
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson, but last week we saw him with what

829
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 1: one target, one tar catch, one target one catch that

830
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 1: tends to sometimes overcorrect itself sometimes. Um, And I would

831
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: be surprised if we don't see a heavy, heavy dosage

832
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,840
Speaker 1: of Calvin Johnson uh in this in this game against

833
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: San Francisco, because quite honestly, San Francisco is playing for nothing,

834
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: their defenses trash, and Calvin Johnson is still a beast. Um.

835
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: So yeah, Golden Tate, You're right, he's getting a lot

836
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: of looks in the red zone. Not that I don't

837
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 1: I don't I like the play, of course, but I

838
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,080
Speaker 1: think Calvin Johnson, I think is gonna be prime for

839
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: a bounce back game because he's gonna be super low

840
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,400
Speaker 1: own because I agree, huge letdown last week. Same thing

841
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,320
Speaker 1: with like Aaron Rodgers as well. Like these are guys

842
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,319
Speaker 1: that bounced people out of their season long leagues and

843
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: now they're gonna come play DFS and they're gonna stay

844
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: away from them. Yeah, yeah, I do like Calvin Johnson

845
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,359
Speaker 1: a lot. Uh, just for that fact that you mentioned

846
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 1: it's I think it's gonna be a pretty solid contrarian play. Um.

847
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: I'll also throw out Jeremy Macklin Casey taking on Cleveland.

848
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,400
Speaker 1: I know I'm picking on Cleveland a lot, but there's

849
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: a reason everybody else though the actual football teams do

850
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 1: so that's why you're doing it. But Maclin is a

851
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,440
Speaker 1: super high quality wide receiver. I know not everybody was

852
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 1: convinced that Macklin moving to Casey would be, you know,

853
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: a good fit. But the bottom line is super talented dude.

854
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,360
Speaker 1: Cleveland missing both of their starting corners Joe Hayden gone.

855
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 1: I guess Gilbert wasn't too great, but who cares whatever.

856
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: He's gone to UM and Cleveland is just not good

857
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: against the past, and I could see Casey, Jeremy Macklin

858
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 1: getting out there. He's got at least two touchdown potential.

859
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 1: Is he gonna get there? Maybe not, but I tell

860
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: you he's got I mean, obviously it's we talked about

861
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 1: low volume passing attacks. Casey can be that as well.

862
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 1: But Jereedmy Macklin in a favorable matchup at home against

863
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: Clee owns a massive massive share of that target pool

864
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: at least, so if you're gonna grab anybody from that.

865
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,919
Speaker 1: He's the way to go, all right, any other wide

866
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: receiver players you want to talk about the wet we

867
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: didn't talk about one of your favorite ones of the week.

868
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 1: Who's that? Oh granted you have to be in the

869
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: type of game because it's a Saturday game, but d

870
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,920
Speaker 1: jacks Man John Brown almost blew the lid off that

871
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 1: Eagle secondary. He dropped what todown on the first first

872
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 1: A many touchdowns? Did he drop at least two? Yeah,

873
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: But Sean Jackson has been clicking with Kirk Cousins. They've

874
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 1: got the deep threat going the Eagle secondary just like

875
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: keeps getting banged up. Revenge prime time, whatever narrative is

876
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 1: you gonna throw in. Well, he's got a good history

877
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,399
Speaker 1: against Philadelphia last year, balled out last year in two

878
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:01,880
Speaker 1: games again them. And he's still a pretty huge value

879
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: because it hasn't like overcorrected yet because he missed so

880
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 1: many games and he started off slowly when he came back.

881
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 1: So he's not, I mean, not a huge value, but

882
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 1: he's he's he's still heeded about that stuff too, Like yeah,

883
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 1: he said this week is like I don't care, he's

884
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 1: covering me. Doesn't. He doesn't let anything go. He does

885
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 1: not let anything go. It seems like the type of

886
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 1: fellow who takes some things personally. Little um. Talking about

887
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 1: guys that the sites have not corrected to yet, it's

888
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:31,279
Speaker 1: too Arizona receivers John Brown and Michael Floyd, Larry Fitzgerald

889
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:35,240
Speaker 1: is still is so overvalued. He's he's, you know, worth

890
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 1: more than both of them right now, which is just

891
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 1: it's that's ridiculous. Like he's pretty much just strictly a

892
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 1: slot receiver. His average depth of target over the last

893
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 1: five weeks is six and a half yards. That's like

894
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 1: he's basically I know. Rich Rebar from The Fake Football

895
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 1: and Rohtal World described him as Arizona's version of Golden Tate,

896
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:57,720
Speaker 1: which is that's pretty gross considering how he started. Floyd

897
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: and Brown are both more are bigger value use and

898
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,839
Speaker 1: they have more upside because they get those deep down

899
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 1: the field targets, and that Packers and Cardinals game, I

900
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: think it's going to turn into a shootout, um, and

901
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 1: so I think that you get you get both those

902
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 1: guys in the tournament, and you know they're easy to

903
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,839
Speaker 1: stack with Carson Palmer, I love both of those guys

904
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: this week. So I think the thing about Fitzgerald is

905
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 1: that he he does get a lot of catches. You know,

906
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 1: they don't don't go anywhere, they don't go anywhere. I mean,

907
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,399
Speaker 1: So if if you are fine with the tin catch

908
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 1: for seventy five yard game, then Larry Fitzgerald is your guy,

909
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: and that's like his upside, Like, yeah, that's like a

910
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,879
Speaker 1: high end. That's the best you're hoping for. He had

911
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,200
Speaker 1: three for forty three last week. The week before that,

912
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 1: again he had some like you know, vomited number. So

913
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 1: and in defense of those those guys too, is Sam Shields,

914
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: the Packers top corner two weeks ago. He's still I

915
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 1: just was pulling off the injury report. He hasn't practiced

916
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 1: yet and he is both like their fastest and best cornerbacks.

917
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,919
Speaker 1: So that's gonna that's gonna set up saying, uh, John

918
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:56,880
Speaker 1: Brown nicely because the guy is probably are gonna be

919
00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:58,800
Speaker 1: hanging with him step for step speedwise. And we just

920
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 1: watched Amari Cooper this week body their rookie cornerbacks. The

921
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:04,399
Speaker 1: Packers rookie quarterbacks have been playing all right this year,

922
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:06,959
Speaker 1: but like against a good receiver and Michael Floyd could

923
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 1: just push them around all games. Yeah, I see this

924
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 1: as a Michael Floyd game. You know the way they

925
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 1: they they call plays in Arizona a lot of deep

926
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: shots and then when they get close. Now they've got

927
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 1: this reliable battering ram and in David Johnson. It's a

928
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 1: big reason why you know, we're I'm I'm very concerned

929
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:27,440
Speaker 1: with Larry Fitzgerald. But the thing about Larry Man, you know,

930
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,000
Speaker 1: and I know you've talked about this mark such a

931
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,240
Speaker 1: widely veteran, such a widely veteran. If he can catch

932
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 1: one of those balls, break a tackle and go, I

933
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,359
Speaker 1: mean that is the way he's gonna score. But traditional

934
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,839
Speaker 1: ways of scoring for a wide receiver either deep down

935
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:45,319
Speaker 1: the field or or fade route close by. I don't

936
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: think those opportunities will be there for him only because

937
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:52,280
Speaker 1: again what we've seen from Arizona over the last few weeks, again,

938
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 1: they're either going to score on on a deep shot

939
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,760
Speaker 1: or if they get close, it's David Johnson time. Baby

940
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 1: John Brown and leads the team in red zone targets

941
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 1: since week eleven, which is when we kind of pointed

942
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: to win. Those receivers. Those two got healthy and Fitzgerald's

943
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 1: role started to change. I got at least one more

944
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 1: to throw out here, and Harmon and I talked about

945
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 1: him a little bit. I was looking at this and

946
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: I kind of liked him as a sneaky play and

947
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 1: I know he's going to be in spoiler alert Harmon's

948
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 1: Secret Sleepers article later this week. But Dorio Greenbeckham is

949
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 1: a decent play with with Mettenberger at the Helm this week.

950
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 1: Last week, they connected on five of their seven targets

951
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 1: for I think ninety four yards and Mettenberger, like I said,

952
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 1: he's not the greatest quarterback, but one thing he's not

953
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,719
Speaker 1: is afraid to throw football down there, to throw it

954
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 1: to a guy that's mostly covered. And d G B

955
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 1: has the size and athleticism, and we saw a couple

956
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:38,560
Speaker 1: of times he out jumped guys. He beat him on

957
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 1: the back shoulder. So this is a game. I don't

958
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,600
Speaker 1: think he I'll jumped anyone. He just stood there. He

959
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 1: doesn't have to jump. But he's a giant, so he

960
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,120
Speaker 1: was pretty efficient on his targets from Mettenberger. Mettenberg is

961
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 1: not gonna be afraid to sling the rock to him.

962
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: And I think Kendall Wright is still going to be out,

963
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,240
Speaker 1: so the practice earlier this right, the targets are probably

964
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 1: gonna funnel to d GB and Delaney Walker. You talk

965
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 1: about targets, the last four weeks, d GBS targets have

966
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 1: gone five, six, seven, and nine. So that's a trend.

967
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 1: Trends a trend. It's a steady increase, trending upward. And yeah,

968
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,399
Speaker 1: it is trending upward. The one thing I do like him,

969
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 1: he's a really good value. Of course, the one thing

970
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 1: that does make me concerned. Again, we talked about that

971
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 1: team being that that's really not a game where you

972
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 1: want to pick a lot of the players from because

973
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: it could be super ugly and low scoring, like James said,

974
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 1: and also Jonathan Joseph has been a really good corner

975
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: of this, so if he sees a lot of him,

976
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:30,279
Speaker 1: that could be kind of trouble. That's not one that

977
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: I want to put in every line up. But if

978
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 1: you look for somebody like you're trying to fill that

979
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 1: last spot in a lineup and you're like, man, I

980
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of space left, can I ask

981
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: you guys? You know I don't um I played daily

982
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:43,839
Speaker 1: every single week. I do play daily and I said,

983
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:47,719
Speaker 1: maybe two rosters, but um, I'm curious. I know you

984
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 1: guys are deep into it. How many rosters do you guys?

985
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:56,879
Speaker 1: Set no comment, No, we'll talk about this off. All

986
00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 1: I know is in the stronghold. Uh. You know, they

987
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 1: will put together some lineups and then you know, we

988
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,240
Speaker 1: have we have duties to attend to on Sunday morning,

989
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 1: we have to go through the list of inactives. And

990
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 1: then once that's done, after we spend the ten or

991
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes it takes to do that, Yeah, the next

992
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:17,320
Speaker 1: hour you they may or may not be setting more lineups.

993
00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 1: There's a lot of free times well. And also Sunday

994
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: you might see somebody's out, you might get another nugget.

995
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: You might be like, oh, I want to do this

996
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: combination so oh on Saturday, especially when I'm in here

997
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 1: by myself, I don't have a lot else to do

998
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 1: chart wide receivers and make DFS lineups, and I'm listening

999
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 1: to a lot of podcasts to and sometimes somebody I respect,

1000
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 1: he'll say something like, oh God, I gotta go. May

1001
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 1: want to get that which real quick? I want to say,

1002
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:42,919
Speaker 1: because we're we don't do this often. So, like I said,

1003
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:46,240
Speaker 1: if guys get you know, their appetites wet for DFS.

1004
00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,840
Speaker 1: Some good ones listen to. I like the DFS m

1005
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,640

1007
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 1: talk a lot of DFS as well. That's a good one,

1008
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 1: the right. I mean, I think they only have like

1009
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:00,680
Speaker 1: two episodes left, but they should have one for this week.

1010
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: What else you listen to? Harmon, I listened to the

1011
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 1: DFS Edge. That's a good one. Adam Levittan and some

1012
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 1: of the other guys like um, Peter Jennings, Right, Yeah,

1013
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,880
Speaker 1: it's a good one. That's a good one to listen to. Um.

1014
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 1: Evan Silva does the Feast podcast with Ross Tucker. They

1015
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 1: have an a f C and NFC one. That's a

1016
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,880
Speaker 1: good heat. That's not like specifically DFS focus. Gotta like

1017
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,440
Speaker 1: a nuggets in there. Yeah, Like Evan plays a lot

1018
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,799
Speaker 1: of DFS, so that's a good one too. Um. Is

1019
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,360
Speaker 1: it fair to say both of you gentlemen set double

1020
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:33,479
Speaker 1: digit rosters? Yes? Yes, oh gosh, oh my gosh, okay,

1021
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 1: well listen. That's but again, that's the fun part about

1022
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,440
Speaker 1: DFS is because like in a season and I love

1023
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 1: season long fantasy because you get to commit to these

1024
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: guys and they're they're your boys. Like when I beat

1025
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:48,319
Speaker 1: when I beat Franchise in our Producers Writers League, it's

1026
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: gonna be great because it's like me and all these

1027
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 1: guys that you like to this change you and joyke Bell,

1028
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:57,480
Speaker 1: who you just picked up, Kristen Michael and Alan Robinson

1029
00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: and all my homies and like we're gonna win this

1030
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: champion it together. That's great. But for dfs, like you

1031
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 1: get to really get your exposure to all these guys,

1032
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 1: and again, you can make so many different combinations. Like

1033
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: a lot of times I'm sitting there like I want

1034
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,399
Speaker 1: to make a stack of all these Steelers guys. That's great,

1035
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,600
Speaker 1: but I couldn't get David Johnson to that lineup, so

1036
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 1: they're not gonna make another one and right, and then

1037
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:16,920
Speaker 1: when we're watching all these games on Sunday, I might

1038
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 1: be like, man, I'm gonna watch this game, like I'll

1039
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,760
Speaker 1: throw this guy in stuff too, And like the Monday

1040
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:23,560
Speaker 1: night games, that's the most fun. Is like last week

1041
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,320
Speaker 1: was great because there were so many dfs, like lineups

1042
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:30,839
Speaker 1: that had Tate, you know, Stafford Cooks big suit out.

1043
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 1: So then you're watching on Monday night and you just

1044
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,399
Speaker 1: do it ride in the tilt there. So I feel

1045
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,879
Speaker 1: like I've listening to him talking about this. I feel

1046
00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 1: like Harmon grew with a lot of Lego play sets.

1047
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 1: Oh dude, I played with so many Lego I had.

1048
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,560
Speaker 1: I had an outrageous amount of Lego did you I

1049
00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 1: played with them till I was like pretty old to

1050
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:54,800
Speaker 1: like my parents like had to send me down, grow

1051
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 1: up twenty two. He's only twenty one now. I'm sure.

1052
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure it was of middle school. Actually, one

1053
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:03,040
Speaker 1: of my friends and I took like all of my

1054
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 1: Legos and we built like a huge replica of Helm's

1055
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:09,160
Speaker 1: Deep from North of the Rings. It was awesome, I'm

1056
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 1: just going to say. But it was still in middle school.

1057
00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:12,399
Speaker 1: And then we were like, maybe we should go talk

1058
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 1: to some girls. I think. I think the moment I

1059
00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:16,879
Speaker 1: stopped playing with Legos was I had built the one

1060
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:20,640
Speaker 1: of those like Clone Trooper drop ships episode two of

1061
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 1: Star Wars, and I left it and it took me hours,

1062
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:25,960
Speaker 1: and I left it over at my friend's house and

1063
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,680
Speaker 1: he was like wrestling with his dog and knocked it off.

1064
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 1: The copy of coffee table and broken. I was like,

1065
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, I can't. It's like

1066
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 1: when you get your heartbroken, like for real and I

1067
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 1: can't go back. I can't do um. My takeaways from

1068
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 1: from this conversation, no, but my takea was tangent. By

1069
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,879
Speaker 1: the way, what this this is my takeaways the fact

1070
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: that you talked about Attack of the Clones or return

1071
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 1: of the what was it was attack the worst, the

1072
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:55,160
Speaker 1: worst of the stop for sex, sorry, attack of the Clones.

1073
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 1: And you said Lord of the Rings in middle school.

1074
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 1: I wasn't college for those, but like I read the

1075
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings books before then. I think you

1076
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,320
Speaker 1: guys are all super old. My life is like ahead

1077
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 1: of me. I have so you guys are just looking

1078
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,399
Speaker 1: in the rear view here. We're running a little along here.

1079
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 1: So Marcus, uh no, we can. We can move it

1080
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,759
Speaker 1: over there. I just very quickly, we'll go around the horn.

1081
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: Favorite tight end plays Matt harmon Um. I really don't

1082
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,000
Speaker 1: think that this is a week to get too cute

1083
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:29,239
Speaker 1: at tight end Um. Jordan read if you if you're

1084
00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 1: on one of those Saturday slates is great. Zach Miller

1085
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:34,680
Speaker 1: Um from Chicago. I don't think people have really given

1086
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:37,839
Speaker 1: enough credence to how well he's playing, and like he's

1087
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,680
Speaker 1: basically the number two target there and if al Shan

1088
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 1: sits on Sunday, which he might, we never really know

1089
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 1: what the Bears with injuries, he's gonna get probably double

1090
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 1: digit targets. We saw him shoving, he scored, you know,

1091
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:52,240
Speaker 1: I think that I think he is an elite tournament

1092
00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,520
Speaker 1: play if you can get him in there. I also

1093
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:56,840
Speaker 1: like Ben Watson, who, again I don't think people have

1094
00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:58,839
Speaker 1: given enough credence to how well he's playing. He's gonna

1095
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 1: probably crack nine yards of this season, and they were

1096
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 1: just stuffing red zone targets at him against the line

1097
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,920
Speaker 1: real quick with Miller since uh Martellis Benett went on

1098
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:09,800
Speaker 1: I R He's caught eleven of twelve targets for a

1099
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 1: hundred forty two yards in a touch. That's twelve point

1100
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:16,400
Speaker 1: nine yards perception. That's pretty darn good. Yeah. Absolutely, How

1101
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:19,400
Speaker 1: about a Marcus I would say one one, when it

1102
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: comes to tighten, you're either a gronk person or you're

1103
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:23,560
Speaker 1: not a grounk person. That's kind of how it goes

1104
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 1: outside of the gronk realm. Julius Thomas want to keep

1105
00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:28,719
Speaker 1: in an eye O. We talked about this lot of

1106
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 1: stacks earlier in the podcast, and so a Blake Bortles

1107
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 1: Julius Thomas stack looks mighty nice right now? All right,

1108
00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,080
Speaker 1: how about it? I mean we've hit we've hit all

1109
00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:39,719
Speaker 1: the big ones. I don't think you know the Barnyard

1110
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:41,479
Speaker 1: Dog has been great, but he might be a little

1111
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 1: overvalued for his matchup. Greg Olsen is always a guy

1112
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:46,719
Speaker 1: you can go to because he's going to see a

1113
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:48,960
Speaker 1: ton of volume in that passing attack. And like we said,

1114
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,480
Speaker 1: that game could be closer than we expect about Richard Rodgers.

1115
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,279
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm going Richard Rodgers this week. Um,

1116
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:56,759
Speaker 1: should we see? Is there anybody deep? I believe we

1117
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,720
Speaker 1: talked about pr sites Will Tie has has double digit

1118
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:05,880
Speaker 1: uh PPR points in the last five games. They're gonna

1119
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:07,879
Speaker 1: have to do something. No Odell Well, time is gonna

1120
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:10,400
Speaker 1: see a slight upticking targets. I would imagine, you know what,

1121
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 1: man when they throw on the ball, he's been converting. Well, yeah,

1122
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,239
Speaker 1: he's I think he's playing very well. All right, that's

1123
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,919
Speaker 1: gonna go. Uh Kyle, Kyle Rudolph could be in play

1124
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 1: this week if that passing game keeps up. They're playing

1125
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,959
Speaker 1: the Giants. Giants aren't great against covering tight ends. He's

1126
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,680
Speaker 1: had some decent games and good matchups. He's also prone

1127
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 1: to disappearing. I don't love it, but if we're talking

1128
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:32,879
Speaker 1: about matches, could be one to play. Um is there? Well,

1129
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:35,319
Speaker 1: I guess if you're playing a Thursday lineup Antonio Gates

1130
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 1: versus the Raiders, the Raiders the Raiders narrative, he's like

1131
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:42,480
Speaker 1: a high floor play at this point. And and the

1132
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,719
Speaker 1: other one is, um, is there a healthy tight end

1133
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:51,320
Speaker 1: in Baltimore versus the Steam Williams? Might they might actually

1134
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,839
Speaker 1: start Ryan Mallett, Like, there's some talk that they might

1135
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:57,520
Speaker 1: start Ryan a quarterback? Gross, So defense is harmon? You

1136
00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 1: said you had some a couple of nugs. We're not

1137
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,239
Speaker 1: gonna talk kickers. Apologies guys, but just I like, if

1138
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna go with kick or go with like, go

1139
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:08,760
Speaker 1: go pretty low, go pretty low, go later or something. Um,

1140
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:11,359
Speaker 1: that was awful though when he missed Sorry but side note,

1141
00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:12,919
Speaker 1: that was awful when he missed that. Like Mike Trick

1142
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:14,640
Speaker 1: goes like he hasn't missed a kick all year, and

1143
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:16,080
Speaker 1: he missed his first kick of the year and I

1144
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 1: had him in like every line, so I was like,

1145
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:23,320
Speaker 1: thanks Mike. But anyways, um defense. I like the Steelers defense.

1146
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:27,400
Speaker 1: Like we mentioned there, that carousel of Baltimore quarterbacks is

1147
00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:29,920
Speaker 1: it's all bad and it keeps on rotating. It might

1148
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,880
Speaker 1: be Ryan Mallet, like we said, for whatever reason. Also,

1149
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:36,799
Speaker 1: the Bills defense, they're gonna be super super low own

1150
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:39,319
Speaker 1: because they've been a big disappointment in season long leagues,

1151
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:44,480
Speaker 1: been a big disappointment in dfs' super salty after the

1152
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:48,880
Speaker 1: narrative street, Yeah, they're salty there. Rex has gotta go,

1153
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,400
Speaker 1: you know, guns ablazon on this one. And they played

1154
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,239
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore, who is awful. I mean, Marcus is in

1155
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,000
Speaker 1: saying it all week like this is not this is

1156
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,799
Speaker 1: not the Mountain West anymore. But he played. He threw

1157
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:02,400
Speaker 1: three interceptions twenty five pass attempts against the Jets. I

1158
00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: think he's gonna throw a few in the teeth of

1159
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:07,200
Speaker 1: the of the Bills secondary and he's gonna take some

1160
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,680
Speaker 1: set they're great pick this and they're and they're they're

1161
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:13,239
Speaker 1: a value play. Same. Don't be surprised the Eagles make

1162
00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 1: a little bit of noise on defense too. I know

1163
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:20,120
Speaker 1: that Kirk Cousins has been much better about protecting the ball.

1164
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 1: But he's on the road. Though he's on the road,

1165
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:24,680
Speaker 1: and man, he's not afraid to throw it. So and

1166
00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 1: the Eagles have been really really good about taking away ball.

1167
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 1: So you know, I just think, uh, you know again,

1168
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,040
Speaker 1: given the evaluation the Eagles, you know, watch out. They

1169
00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:36,400
Speaker 1: could they could do something one more Detroit actually against

1170
00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: San Francisco, they welcomed them into their home turf. Uh

1171
00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:48,480
Speaker 1: just lost one of its best offensive players in Shandre

1172
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. I forget how Ziggyanza fared coming out

1173
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 1: of that game, but he's a dynamite pass rusher and

1174
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 1: they've got a good they're getting a front seven. They

1175
00:56:56,120 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 1: could they could force blamee there. It's Trevere's cadet and

1176
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,440
Speaker 1: Kendall gas. It is not Trever's cadet because it was

1177
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:08,319
Speaker 1: least for the one I forgot who got cut by

1178
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 1: a lot of teams. Wait, so to one. Harris's a

1179
00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:13,399
Speaker 1: Niner and niner, so it's it'll probably be the one.

1180
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:16,720
Speaker 1: Harrison Kindall Gaskins, Uh splitting, what did he do? He

1181
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,680
Speaker 1: just gotten his Honda Cord and just drove down the

1182
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:22,439
Speaker 1: five to But that's the thing. He couldn't have done

1183
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:24,920
Speaker 1: that because he had gotten cut by the Seahawks and

1184
00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:29,720
Speaker 1: wasn't on Baltimore practice squads. He had to hop back

1185
00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 1: on a plane and get back to the West coast.

1186
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:35,240
Speaker 1: And now he's gonna be taking carries Wow to want

1187
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:36,919
Speaker 1: Harris good for you? All right, let's get Daily Gaps

1193
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 1: take a hip hop artist and do a mash up

1194
00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:10,320
Speaker 1: with like a soul artist or a blue artist. Uh.

1195
00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:12,240
Speaker 1: He did want a good one a couple of years ago,

Speaker 1: Most Deaf, pairing it up with some Marvin Game music.
