Speaker 1: for all the marvels? And Michael Fabiano who had the

16
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,520
Speaker 1: misfortune of playing against Adam Rank and running back Jamal

17
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: Charles in the NFL dot Com Experts League semifinals this week. Fabs,

18
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you know, bad luck when you get to

19
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: the fantasy postseason, A lot of times it's all about luck.

20
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: And when you play somebody who has a guy who

21
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: has over fifty Fantasy points, that just donald rotten luck. Now,

22
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: I played four leagues where Jamal Charles was here on

23
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 1: my team or playing against me, and I went to

24
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: and Too. I actually lost to Nikki's Loomis from NFL

25
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: a M despite the fact that I had Charles. Then

26
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 1: in another league, I beat someone who had Charles, So

27
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: I still went too for two and we're still looking good.

28
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: In my nine leagues. We thought Jamal Charles was going

29
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: to have the greatest Fantasy day in the history of

30
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: foot He was over fifty Fantasy points going to the

31
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,279
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. He was just looked less than five away

32
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: from Clinton Porters, but didn't get the football in the

33
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. He settled for number three. But there's a

34
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: trend you're seeing on this board right here. Jamal Charles

35
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: did it against Oakland Doug Martin fifty one fantasy points.

36
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 1: Last year, fabs didn't. Nick Foles also have seven touchdowns

37
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: against the Oakland. They need far back, they needed pass rusher,

38
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: They need to do something. Empty your bench and they

39
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,559
Speaker 1: played this week the San Diego Chargers and they will

40
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: be super this week against Oakland. You can almost guarantee

41
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: that Philip Rivers and Matthews, Keenan Allen Kellen wins. They'll

42
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: get him on your line starts stand Humphries, Natron means

43
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: maryon butts. All these guys. I think I had him

44
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 1: on a fantasy team back in the day. Yeah, early nineties.

45
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: He was good, goodness good yeah. Alright. Now, coming up,

46
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 1: we'll run down all the big injuries from Sunday's Week

47
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: fifteen action and the rest of our top performers. But

48
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 1: for now, let's send it over to Adam Reich and

49
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: ok Bar Baja Bamela for the breakdown of the Monday

50
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: night tilt between the Ravens and the Lions. Thank you

51
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: very much, Jason, what are you say making a comeback off? Bar? No, No,

52
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 1: I saw a guy though that on that highlight that

53
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: look kind of look like me missed the tackle. Yes, yeah,

54
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: that's okay, Yeah, I'm telling that one alone. But let's

55
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: talk about the Monday Night game at hand, the defending

56
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens taking on the Detroit Lions.

57
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: And we will start with the Ravens. What are the

58
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: most biggest I would say enigmas of the season has

59
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: been Ray Rice. What do you see out of him tonight? Well,

60
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 1: you know, for ray Rice, this is a very touch,

61
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: tough matchup going up against the Detroit lines. You know,

62
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: outside of that big game he had in week five

63
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: excuse me Chicago, last week his against games and we

64
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: five against the Miami Dolphins. But I think one thing

65
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 1: that I am gonna say for ray Rice is that

66
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: this could be a statement game for him and the

67
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: reason why they've added another element to this game, and

68
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: that's in who Dennis Pitta. Dennis Pitta came back and

69
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: we saw that production from Ray Rice. I think that

70
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: we'll see that same type of production. He'll give you

71
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: about ten fantasy points in this game because they're gonna

72
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: have vertical threat. We'll get to the projections in the

73
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: minute I fired hold back, Okay, easy, But how about

74
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: Torry Smith? Where do we see out of him today?

75
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: But don't give the projection just yet. I won't. He's

76
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: going to have to have a bounce back game because

77
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: this last game we all thought, oh, well this is

78
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: you know last week we thought Torry Smith was gonna

79
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: be that guy. Well, this game is gonna be a

80
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: little different. I think he'll be able to take advantage

81
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: of this matchup because when you look at this, the

82
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 1: Lions are giving up the second most fantasy points to

83
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: the wide receiver position. That's because they aren't able to

84
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: get to the quarterback. They're not in sync with that

85
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: defensive line front there right now. Their second to last

86
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: as far as getting to the quarterbacks. So that's gonna

87
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: be a lot of time for Joe Flacco to pick

88
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: up part that deep. It's okay, they've been They've been

89
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: tough against tight ends though. Now Dennis Petter has come

90
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: back at a great game last week. What do we

91
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: see out of him tonight? Another big game in his

92
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: very first game. You mean to tell me they target

93
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: him eleven times? That's a statement. You know how comfortable

94
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: Joe Flackle fills with Dennis Pitta. And he only had

95
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: thirty six snaps out of their a five snaps. So

96
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: think about that. He still had very good production with

97
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: limited amount of snaps. I think they're gonna increasing now

98
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: because he's gonna be in shape and ready to go,

99
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: so they're basically throwing it to him every time he's

100
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 1: on the field. Here are projections for Monday Night for

101
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 1: the Ravens, even though at Bar wanted to spoil it.

102
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: There is the big reveal with ten points for ray Rice.

103
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 1: I have him for four, but you can visibly that's

104
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: a good point about Dennis Pitta. Something to think about

105
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 1: going forwards. The game always opens up the run. Game

106
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: opening it up, all right, But let's go over to

107
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: the other side of the football. We will start with

108
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions. And I guess if you have Matthew

109
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: Stafford at this point, you have to be feeling pretty good.

110
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: What do you say tonight? This is a diet Namic offense.

111
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford has always been that guy. But if you

112
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: think about why Matthew Stafford has been so good. Now,

113
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: I know he's not coming off of the best performance,

114
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: but in general, he has Calvin Johnson. But on top

115
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: of that, he has a very strong arm, he has

116
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: a quick release, and he's got a good offensive line. Now,

117
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: get this, This offensive line has allowed Matthew Stafford to

118
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 1: be the least sack quarterback in the NFL. Again, that

119
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: gives him the opportunity to break down the opposing team's defense.

120
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: And so now we're looking at Matthew Stafford in his matchup.

121
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: You know he got you know, this team was being

122
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 1: called out in the media. I say, Matthew Stafford is

123
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 1: gonna have a big game. ESPN is reporting that the

124
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: Lions expect Bush to have a normal workload after missing

125
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,840
Speaker 1: last week with a caffe injury. Can we trust him?

126
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: I hope that every single fantasy owner has forgiven Reggie

127
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 1: Bush for what he did last week. It costs me

128
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 1: my matchup. Of course I should have won. I'm not better.

129
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 1: I'm telling you guys all to forgive sound. But he's

130
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: going to come back and he's gonna be right where

131
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: he left off. I think he's gonna be that type

132
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 1: of runner. When you look at this team, they've only

133
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: this Ravens defense is very tough. They've only allowed you

134
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 1: know Rusher. But he's involved in the passing game that

135
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: helps Reggie Bush and his value. Reggie Bush has a

136
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: good game against the Baltimore Ravens. You think of all

137
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: the big names that have left the Ravens defense over

138
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: the last couple of years, but as you said, very

139
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: good against the run. Calvin Johnson continues to put up

140
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: epic stat lines each and every week. What are we

141
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 1: gonna say about him right now that we couldn't say before. Well,

142
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: I'll say this that uh safety matt Elam kind of

143
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: already gave up the game plan well ware for the

144
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: Ravens when he called Calvin Johnson, I'll call him old,

145
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: and they say they were gonna make him uncomfortable by

146
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: getting physical. Are you kidding me? As my boy George

147
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: Jones used to say that, it's just silly, silly, you

148
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: can't do that to Calvin Johnson, gets physical, call him

149
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: old and not expect to be to get abused. Calvin

150
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: Johnson's going to abuse this secondary group and he's gonna

151
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: go for a big game. Let me ask you, as

152
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,919
Speaker 1: a former player, if you saw somebody say something like

153
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: that about your big star, how would you respond, Oh,

154
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,679
Speaker 1: you get in this eree, You text him, you're getting

155
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: his ear and tell him how much that other guy

156
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: is not talking nonsense. And here are the projections we

157
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 1: look at Big Nights from Matthew Stafford, Reggie Bush, huge night,

158
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: You've got him there, Joy Bell also a pretty nice game.

159
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: And of course Calvin Johnson going out being Calvin Johnson.

160
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: I'm worried if I was going against Calvin Johnson. That

161
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: they were really gonna showcase that they were really going

162
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: to show the Ravens like your kicker is talking about

163
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: the best player in football. Probably it says, get real.

164
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: What do you say? Real talk, real talk? All right,

165
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: thank you very much. Remember to check out NFL Fantasy

Speaker 1: with all your fantasy highlights and advice and all that

169
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: good stuff. And with that, Jason I will send it

170
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: back to you. Thanks guys. Time for more of the

171
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: latest headlines from around the league. Going to talk about

172
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: some injuries. First one, Andre Ellington a thigh injury. He

173
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 1: is going to be fine, according to head coach Bruce

174
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: arians Fabs. Ellington's really come on the last couple of

175
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: weeks he has. But the matchup upcoming is not very

176
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: good against the Seattle Seahawks. All right, we got some

177
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: other banged up Cardinals on this board right here. Larry Fitzgerald,

178
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer, Victor Cruz, Donald Brown, Joe Hayden, and Jermaine Gresham.

179
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: Don't forget for the latest injury news. Lug on to

180
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com Slash injuries. As far as Fitzgerald goes,

181
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: he was tested for concussion after suffering a hit to

182
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: the head on an on side kick Sunday in natural

183
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 1: likely gonna have to pass the leagu's concussion protocols before

184
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: he has cleared for Week sixteen, FABS, if he misses

185
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: your fantasy championship, is it as simple as picking up

186
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: Michael Floyd or Andrey Roberts. No, because this is in Seattle.

187
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: Who on that Arizona Cardinals offense can you trust outside

188
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: of Fitzgerald? And maybe you can't even trust him. That's

189
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,599
Speaker 1: where offense is going to die. Jason the Great Northwest

190
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: to injury concerns for Giants wide out Victor Cruz, who

191
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,959
Speaker 1: suffered the concussion and a sprain knee and the Giants

192
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 1: loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The best wishes for Victor

193
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,559
Speaker 1: Cruz get healthy soon. But FABS, can you really trust

194
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: to play any Giants at this point? Only Andre Brown?

195
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: That's about the only guy. And even he had a

196
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: bad game yesterday, but I think that was more about

197
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: the matchup against the same Seattle Seahawk. Big defensive injury

198
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: to tell you about Brown? Shutdown cornerback Joe Hayden could

199
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: miss the rest of the season with the hit point

200
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: of this. According to NFL media insider Ian Rabbitport. So,

201
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,719
Speaker 1: with Cleveland traveling to the Meadowlands in week sixteen, can

202
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: you finally start a Jets wide receiver? Are you serious?

203
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: It begs the question? Really, it doesn't question, No, it doesn't.

204
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: It is the Jets. Do they have any fantasy relevant

205
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: wide receivers at all? Begging and fantasy points go hand

206
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: in hand with the Jet No, no, not in nine championship,

207
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: We've no thank you. In Minnesota, Vikings head coach Leslie

208
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: Fraser said that he expects Adrian Peterson to come back

209
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: next week. This likely makes Matt Assiota Dexi's Midnight Runners

210
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: one hit wonder. So, while you're starting Adrian Peterson, what

211
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: does this mean if you still own Toby Gerhardt Matt Asciata?

212
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 1: Do you hold onto him? Do you waive him? What

213
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: do you do? I wait and hold onto him until

214
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: we know for sure. Hey, Peterson practices on Wednesday, practice

215
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: on Thursday. Everything's looking good, then you can go ahead

216
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: and drop those guys. But Asciata, he's like the nick

217
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: Lucy of remember him. He was the Bengals running back

218
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 1: who came in for one week when Corey Dillon and

219
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: Ruddy Johnson were hurt, and he had two touchdowns and

220
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: no one started him because no one ever heard of him. Yeah,

221
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: I had a thirty touch He only had fifty one

222
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: yards here, two yards to carry, But those go line carries,

223
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: that's what carried. You know. Maybe Matt Asiata got you

224
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: in the Championship week gifts. So congratulations. Raise your hand

225
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: if you thought Alex Smith, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Matt Castle, and

226
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: Matt Flynn would all be among the top five scoring

227
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: quarterbacks for Week fifteen. Put your hands down, you liars,

228
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: all of you just a one week thing into These

229
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: backup quarterbacks have long term value. Now there are some

230
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: of them that I actually like. Kirk Cousins, Ryan Fitzpat.

231
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: Could they have good matchups? Matt Flynn? No, that was

232
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: about the Dallas Cowboys in their awful defense. I would

233
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: not even touch Matthill. Give me a confidence level you

234
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: would have in starting a guy like a Tannehill or

235
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins that you've just taken off the waiver wire

236
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. Well, it's not like you're

237
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: starting Drew Brees or Aaron Rodgers he comes back, or

238
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: Peyton Manny. But I have pretty pretty good confidence in

239
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: these guys. Listen, quarterbacks, regardless of name, can put up

240
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: numbers both on the field and from a fantasy perspective.

241
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 1: We've seen that all season long. And Kirk Cousins is

242
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: playing the Cowboys this week, that's a great matchup. Fitzpatrick

243
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: is playing the Jaguars, great matchup. So I would be

244
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: confident in these guys. It's not like ten years ago

245
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: where these young quarterbacks and these no name quarterbacks came

246
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: in and it was kind of football filing. We're that's

247
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: not the same NFL as we playing today. My friend alright,

248
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 1: coming up, Fad will tell you if guys like Jake

249
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: Cutler can be trusted to win a championship for you.

250
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: Just in Cutler and championship in the same sentence. We'll

251
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: tell you who's worth a spot start for Week sixteen.

252
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: But from now enjoy some non moving images with throwbacks,

253
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: staticky radio calls attached, and Charles find the Promise Land

254
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: for the fifth time in the game. Pokers lead a

255
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 1: day to Remember for mad Aziata He's Goddess Man. Joe

256
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: did he get in Yes, Castle and great Gettings fifty

257
00:11:52,720 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: seven yards of the Vikings lead falls touched out. Sean

258
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: Jackson is Mortas third touchdown today. Smith toss it to

259
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:18,960

Speaker 1: when you see a big performance. Use the hashtag ka boom.

263
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: As you tracked the guys whose fantasy production exploded on

264
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: the field, none bigger than Jamal Charles, who we thought

265
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: was gonna break Clinton Porters's all time record for Fantasy

266
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: points in the game. He had over fifty going into

267
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, fell just short because he didn't get

268
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: the football, but still over fifty fantasy points. Nick Foles

269
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 1: is on this list. Nott Asiata, Ryan Daniel, couple of

270
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: guys are gonna get to But you see that big

271
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: fifty one fifty from Jamal Charles and thanks to its crazy.

272
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 1: It was literally crazy. We're sitting at Outby and I

273
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 1: were watching the games with Chris Rose and Michael irban.

274
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: I joked, I said, well, if I get forty from

275
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: earls and I got thirty from Romo. I'm in good shape,

276
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: but you were, but you were a little nervous, and

277
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: I had to give a little bits. I had to

278
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: get Michael Irvin to give him a little cowboys little

279
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: pep talk in the locker room and said it's going

280
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: to be not Fats is gonna get me. No fans,

281
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: I said, relaxed, he's got thirty seven points, does not

282
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: even have time. Michael caught the towel that I was

283
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: ready to throw. He pushed off hawk part to do it,

284
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: but he still caught it. So rank is in the

285
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,959
Speaker 1: Expert's lead finals, although he had a twenty five point

286
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 1: lead and thanks to the final minute with Tony Robo,

287
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: the only one by a point. Yes, that was why

288
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: right now during the game, or another quarterback in the

289
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: NFC East who continues to chew up yards and fantasy points.

290
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 1: Nick Foles had a great match up against Minnesota bar

291
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 1: and he didn't disappoint. No, he didn't. And he's so well,

292
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: I mean, just threaded just nicely in this offense with

293
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 1: Chim Kelly, and he's continuously shown that when you look

294
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,559
Speaker 1: at his production, he's put up big numbers. I mean

295
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: consecutive thirty three fantasy points. I mean, just stop and

296
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: think about that. How high we were on Michael coming

297
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: into the year, and now all of a sudden you're

298
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 1: looking at twenty two plus fantasy points in five of

299
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 1: the last six games. He's somebody that's going to continue

300
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: to put up strong QB number one production. Yeah, there's

301
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: only one or two guys you're maybe starting over him

302
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:13,719
Speaker 1: the rest of the way. Ryan Tannehill, we hit on

303
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: our Bowl predictions yesterday pretty good, but rank doubly. So

304
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 1: you said the Dolphins are gonna pull the upset. They

305
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: did and Tannehill an outpoint Tom Brady, he did. It

306
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: was a huge game. And I did not start Ryan

307
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: Tannehill over the aforementioned Tony Roman and nearly cost me.

308
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: But Tannehill has been really fantastic over the last couple

309
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: of weeks. He scored at least twenty one fantasy points

310
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: in three consecutive games. He has six touchdown passes in

311
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: his last two, and his fantasy points have increased in

312
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: four consecutive weeks. Now, he's got a tough matchup coming

313
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: up against the Bills, who headed into Week fifteen, had

314
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: allowed the fewest fantasy points over the last month, but

315
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: still great option. All Right, Matt Asiota a bar you

316
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: said it on Sunday, he was gonna have a big day.

317
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna give him the football a ton Matt Asiota did. However,

318
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 1: it looks like Adrian Peterson is gonna be back this week,

319
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: so could just be a one hit wonder well for

320
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings. This perhaps is the greatest discovery since

321
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: Christopher Columbus discovered North America, because they at least now

322
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: know that they had a third running back in Matt Asiata. Now,

323
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: of course he didn't get a lot of yards. He

324
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: had a lot of cares, not a lot of yards,

325
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: but he was a vulture in the in the end zone.

326
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: Asiata and then putting a man on the moon apparently,

327
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: all right, how about Matt Flynn fabs nearly three yards

328
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: and all those touchdowns four touchdowns. This guy had been

329
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: cut by the Seahawks, the Raiders let him go and

330
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: nobody wanted him. And you know how you find success

331
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: in this league when you're a quarterback and nobody wants you.

332
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: You play against the DAWs Cowboys. This guy scores over

333
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: twenty fantasy points and if you pick Matt Flynn up,

334
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 1: you are chasing the points. He will not do this again.

335
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: This was all on the Cowboys. Awful, pathetic, terrible, strong.

336
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: I'm not better though, Okay, see, can you trust the

337
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: wide receivers a little bit more? No, Jordy Nelson is

338
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: the only guy that I would start Listen the Cowboys.

339
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: They stink. This is This was all about the matchup, guys.

340
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: And I'm a Cowboys fan. This one. I know that's

341
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: what we're gonna have a hunch. But this was all

342
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: about the matchup. It was no, I understand, I totally

343
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: understand it's gonna be okay. And and I had to

344
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: play rank and Jamal Charles I had Wow, It's like

345
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: we had a Dr Phil for everybody, doctor affiliate when

346
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: I need him. Let's take a look at our top

347
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: performers eleven through twenty. The guys just outside the top ten.

348
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: D'Angelo Williams had that huge screen pass for a touchdown

349
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 1: against the Jets. Greg Jennings had the long touchdown. Dez

350
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: Bryant bounces back from a big week, cried after the game,

351
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: wouldn't talk to the press. Didn't matter. He still gave

352
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 1: you over the only one crying after that game. And

353
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: there's Kirk Cousins. We talked about him yestually being a

354
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: great spot start fantasy points. They like to throw the

355
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: football and Cousins is a guy fans can you trust

356
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: the rest of the way? Now, yes you can. I

357
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 1: said on yesterday's show that Kirk Cousins was a very

358
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: big sleeper and this was a great matchup. And guys, guests,

359
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: who he plays in a Week sixteen? Let me guess

360
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. The Dallas Cowboys are playing the Washington

361
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: Redskins in Washington next week. Kirk Cousins. And I'm gonna

362
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: say this twice so people hear me. Kirk Cousins will

363
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: be in my top ten among quarterbacks for week six days.

364
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 1: Cousins will be in my top ten among quarterbacks. Are

365
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: all right? Greg Jennings got the money earlier part of

366
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: the season rank and now he finally gives you a

367
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 1: big game, yeah, when it's probably way too late for

368
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: all your fantasy games. A season high third team targets.

369
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: But what's interesting to note here is Ben Scully would

370
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: say four receiving touchdowns this season all from Matt Castle.

371
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: But still I find it very hard to trust Greg

372
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: Jennings going forward. As Michael said, you would just be

373
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 1: chasing the fantasy points if you did. All right, now,

374
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,399
Speaker 1: it's never too early to start thinking about coming up.

375
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: We'll give you an early look at our top ten

376
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: players at quarterback, running back, tight end, and wide receiver

377
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: for next season. But next did you have a case

378
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: of the Sundays because some of your studs turned invisible?

379
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 1: And more importantly, can you trust these players to bounce back?

380
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: For next week? We'll have our aunts is his NFL

381
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: Fantasy Live continues, Bar give me a clean as Welcome

382
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: back to NFL Fantasy Live. No one likes to be disappointed,

383
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: but I'm a Jets fan, fantasis, a Cowboys fan, a

384
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: bar played for the Raiders. We all know what it

385
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 1: feels like me to be disappointed. So we're the ones

386
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 1: who can really help you deal with disappointment. Like you

387
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,199
Speaker 1: got this week out of that from our teams, and

388
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,640
Speaker 1: you got from these players you expected plenty of fantasy

389
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 1: points from Andre Johnson one point eight, Shane Vereen, Jordan Cameron,

390
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: who was living on this fantasy disappointments list the last

391
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: few weeks, Bobby Rainey, Ben Roethlisberger La Shan McCoy did

392
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: have ten Fantasy points, but Baris said higher from Accoy

393
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 1: with a great matchup against the Vikings. But the name

394
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: to watch on this list is Shane Vereen. Just over

395
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 1: to Fantasy Points and Facts. You lost your Experts League

396
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: match up against Adam Rank, partly because Shane Vereen gave

397
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: you this kind of week well and partly because Rank

398
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: had Jamal Charles. He had fifty one Fantasy points against me.

399
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,199
Speaker 1: Still I lost by about ten, but you know what,

400
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: these things happen in the fantasy playoffs. I still have

401
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: faith in Urene, especially in PPR leagues, but the game

402
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 1: plan yesterday was Edelman Amundla and very little from those

403
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 1: running backs in New England. So reflects now only for

404
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 1: shaere standard. But in PPR I still think he's a

405
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: too all right bar How about a Keen Knicks another

406
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: bad week for him? Well, you know, I don't know

407
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 1: that at this point you'd ever want to trust how

408
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: Keen Knicks, I mean, especially this year. But really you

409
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: look at the play we saw earlier, Eli Manning having

410
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: negative Fantasy points, Well that hurts how Keem Knicks his

411
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: fantasy value. But mostly too. You look at that great

412
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: interception there by Richard Sherman. The press corners were being

413
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: physical with them, they were in their face. They took

414
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: out Victor Cruise in the game, and still yet he

415
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: wasn't productive. I say, how Keen Knicks is not a

416
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: guy that you want to play move forward. Sheldon Richardson

417
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 1: had a touchdown yesterday. He's a defensive lineman for the Jet.

418
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: That's more than Nick more unreal. All right, let's move

419
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: on to Jordan Cameron. And here here's the thing with

420
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 1: Brent Jordan Camera knock bar. If we say a guy's

421
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 1: a disappointment for so long, eventually, don't we have to

422
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: just take him off this board and out of this segment. Well,

423
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,040
Speaker 1: you know what, Jordan Camera is a talented te it

424
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 1: end and we've seen that throughout the season. Now the

425
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 1: last couple of games has been off. He's gone through

426
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 1: the whole quarterback circuit. But when you look at this

427
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: first quarter, they even get a lot of snap They

428
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: had about what six snaps in the first quarter, so

429
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: you could tell they were out of sync and outer

430
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: of rhythm. Very hard to get the game plan, especially

431
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: when a team they thrived in having a rhythm and

432
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 1: playing a game, and they didn't have that rhythm, and

433
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: Jordan Cameron got got the bitter into that as well

434
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 1: as Josh Josh Gordon. You know what gets me about

435
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: this is that Josh Gordon has proven he can do

436
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: it from any quarterback. Everybody that's played this season. He's

437
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: had big games. But it seems like Jordan Cameron Febbs

438
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: is not Jason Campbell's guy. Clearly not. And the targets

439
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 1: are down when Campbell is at the quarterback position. But

440
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 1: the tight end spot is just so weak this year.

441
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 1: You still almost have to play. You have to play.

442
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: You have to recognize him for his true talent. He

443
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 1: is a talented tight end, like I mentioned earlier, and

444
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: he's gonna take advantage of those matchup. They got off offensively,

445
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 1: they were just off to a very bad start. Now

446
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: a low end number one four, Jordan Camera. Let's go

447
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: to Andre Johnson now against Indianapolis, and we thought he

448
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: was gonna have a big game. Another week where Andre

449
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: Johnson left scratching your head saying is he still the

450
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: elite wide receiver? We thought he was. Well, you know what,

451
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,360
Speaker 1: for the most part, Andre Johnson has been pretty good

452
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 1: he still doesn't get in the end zone enough. And

453
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: unfortunately I had a j in the Celebrity League where

454
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: it looks like I could lose to Natalie Coughlin. I

455
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 1: still got a player going tonight, but she has Calvin Johnson.

456
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,119
Speaker 1: I still think this sort of was just a blip

457
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: on the radar. You're still not gonna bench Andre Johnson

458
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 1: if you survived Week fifteen. But this really hurt. This

459
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: was a tough one overcome. Even in a PPR league.

460
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 1: Nothing of our fifty six points for the Chiefs hardly

461
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: any for Dwayne Bow, you know, right, well, that was

462
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: the big reason to me. Jamal Charles just kind of

463
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 1: hogged it up. It was mostly too that the Raiders

464
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: defense just couldn't stop this offense for the Kansas City Chiefs,

465
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 1: and you couldn't get Dwayne Bowl the ball. I mean,

466
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: as soon as they jumped up special teams defensively, they

467
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,439
Speaker 1: were kind of hitting on every cylinder. And it just

468
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: wasn't a Dwayne Bowl game. And I've been chanting his

469
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 1: name early, I mean, for the last couple of weeks.

470
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 1: Dwayne Bowl is a very good wide receiver. In this offense,

471
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 1: they just anticipate that the Raiders are gonna lay down

472
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: for him, all right. Lashawn McCoy did have over ten

473
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 1: Fantasy points fabs against the Vikings, but still, when it

474
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: comes to a matchup like this, you're expecting more. You're

475
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: definitely expecting to score at least fifteen eighteen somewhere in

476
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: that range. He didn't get it done. But there is

477
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 1: good news for fantasy owners who have wished mcoy, assuming

478
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 1: you still won in Week fifteen. He plays the Bears

479
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 1: next week, and you can't get a better matchup as

480
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: a running back unless maybe you're playing Like, what do

481
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: you say that he's gonna break another, break another record?

482
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: I think with gonna put out vague numbers in Week

483
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: six if you're playing the Bears and are running back,

484
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 1: if you're playing the Cowboys and you're anything, you're gonna

485
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 1: have a big week, alright, even Matt Flynn. I'm that's

486
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,120
Speaker 1: the Cowboys fantasy disappointments. When I tell you, we've all

487
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 1: known how to deal with them, tweet us will tell

488
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: you how to deal with it at NFL Fantasies straight ahead.

489
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 1: Can you trust Sunday's top performer to do it again?

490
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: Four you in Week sixteen ranking Akbar will tell you

491
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 1: if guys like Rashan Jennings and Ryan Fitzpatrick can be

492
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 1: trusted in your Fantasy championship. Yes, I'm serious. Plus FABS

493
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 1: will also have an early look at this week's waiver wire.

494
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: How valuable are guys like Ryan Tannhell and Kirk Cousins

495
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 1: and who can you start them over? This is NFL

496
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: Fantasy Live. Time for some target practice. Wondering who's getting

497
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: the most targets in the passing game? Are weekly recap

498
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 1: of the players who were given the most opportunities on

499
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: Sunday is just ahead. Plus, we're making you smarter with

500
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: some of the lessons we learned in week fifteen. Spoiler alert,

501
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 1: some of our experts are still learning to trust Tom

502
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: Brady and the envelope. Please, we're unveiling our nominees for

503
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 1: our Year and Fantasy Awards. Find out who made the

504
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: list and how you can vote as NFL Fantasy Live continues.

505
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: Usually by this time of year, you're not picking up

506
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 1: free agents and inserting them into your starting lineup. However,

507
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 1: this is no ordinary year. Let's look at some players

508
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: who will be widely available this week and will garner

509
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: a ton of interest Kirk Cousins owned in less than

510
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 1: five percent of all NFL dot com leagues, Jordan Toddman

511
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,239
Speaker 1: less than one percent, Ryan Tannehill, Jake Cutler. These are

512
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: all players who can help you this coming week, FABS.

513
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,640
Speaker 1: And Jake Cutler is a guy. Look, you've been saying

514
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 1: it for a long time, no matter who plays quarterback

515
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 1: for the bear as, you can trust them. These guys

516
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: have been on the waiver wireless for a couple of

517
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 1: weeks now, and some of these guys really just proved that, hey,

518
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: they've deserve to be starters in fantasy football. Jay Cutler, yeah,

519
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: had a couple of picks, but he also put up

520
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 1: some pretty good numbers against the Cleveland Browns on the road.

521
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall was fantastic. Ashon Jeffrey made another spectacular catch

522
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: in the end zone. Jay Culor has got the weapons.

523
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,239
Speaker 1: He's in an offense where he can thrive, And this

524
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 1: is a guy you should pick up and start if

525
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: you need a quarterback. Yesterday's show, you said I'm starting

526
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: Jordan Todman in a lot of leagues. I believe in him.

527
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: He had a huge day last week. Now, what about

528
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 1: going forward for Jordan's Tom. It all depends on the

529
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: status and Maurice Jones drew. If this kid becomes the

530
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: featured back for the Jaguars over the last couple of

531
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: weeks of the season, well he's a pretty good fantasy option,

532
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 1: especially this week. In Week sixteen, they're playing the Tennessee Titans,

533
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: who have one of the worst rush defenses in the

534
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: National Football League. We also recommended Kirk Cousins on Sunday,

535
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 1: and he really came through for you. You know facts.

536
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 1: It's a shame he doesn't have a good matchup this week. Yeah,

537
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: he doesn't have a good match this week the Dallas Cowboys.

538
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, that is the best matchup any quarterback

539
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: and have in the entire NFL. Kurt Cousins were somebody

540
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: again you said, we said play him if you need

541
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 1: a quarterback. In a week fifteen, he played well. The

542
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 1: fantasy points were there. This is a bad defense, so

543
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen? A lot of times they're gonna have

544
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 1: to throw to come back to try to erase early deficits.

545
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 1: And as we mentioned, they're playing the Dallas Cowboys in

546
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 1: Week six team, you can't get a better matchup if

547
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: you're a quarterback. The Seattle Seahawks are like the most

548
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: interesting man in the world. They don't often throw the football,

549
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: but when they do. I like that Smith. That was

550
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 1: clever you. But Doug Brodwan has been very underrated over

551
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: the last four or five weeks. He's played extremely well.

552
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,199
Speaker 1: Our stage manager t O's got him and he loves him.

553
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: He puts up big Fantasy points and you don't expect

554
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 1: him to. Baldwin is suddenly a guy you could start

555
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: as at three. And if you've had him over the

556
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks and been starting him, twudos to you.

557
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: As a Mets fan. No one knows the following statement

558
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: is true more than me. It's never too early to

559
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: start thinking about next year. So with that in mind,

560
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: we're gonna look at our top ten list at every

561
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 1: position for team. Going to kick it off of the quarterbacks,

562
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 1: these are my top ten quarterbacks for teen. Drew Brees

563
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,199
Speaker 1: number one, Nick Foles number two, Peyton Manning number three. Yes,

564
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning having a year from the ages, but I'm

565
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 1: I'm projecting forward fabs and you can't ignore what Nick

566
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 1: Foles has done despite not becoming the starter until midway

567
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: through the season. Very bold, my friend, very bold. But

568
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,439
Speaker 1: Nichols is going to be a high end number one

569
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 1: quarterback next season in the offense of Chip Kelly. With

570
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: the weapons that he's got there, he is going to

571
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 1: be a Fantasy star. Philip Rivers back in that top

572
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: ten after the year he's having. Let's get to the

573
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: running backs, fabs and luck load of interesting things here.

574
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 1: You got Jamal Charles number one, Arian Foster drops down

575
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 1: all the way to number seven. We've got to see

576
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: what happens. This is going to be a story that

577
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,719
Speaker 1: fantasy owners and myself will be covering all off season.

578
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: Aryan Foster's return from that back injury, Reggie Bush, Eddie Lacy,

579
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: Levian Bell. I love another guy that I don't have

580
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 1: on there that could sneak in, Giovanni Bernard. A lot

581
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 1: of stuff happens in the off season, but right now,

582
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: that's what you're looking at that Levian Bell. He's good

583
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: under reading. How about the Titans and the wide receivers.

584
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 1: Let's throw it over to Adam Rank and akbar Asciata Biamila.

585
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, Jason. We'll keep rolling with our

586
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,919
Speaker 1: two thousand and fourteen preview, and I know deep in

587
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: his heart of hearts, Akbar feels he is a wide receiver,

588
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 1: so I actually that's my favorite position. So we allowed

589
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: you to rank the top ten wide receivers for two

590
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: thousand and fourteen, and there's no surprise. Calvin Johnson leads

591
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,479
Speaker 1: the list at number one, followed by Josh Gordon. Now

592
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: Sean Jeffrey, who had jump in there. Well, I was

593
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: gonna say, my surprise was with the Josh Gordon. Josh

594
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 1: Gordon has really made a statement for himself to be

595
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 1: that number two wide receiver, but right beneath him as

596
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 1: a guy I'm really excited about al Shan Jeffrey Alshon.

597
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: Jeffrey to me is what you know with that combination

598
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: him and Brandon Marshall. That's what we thought and they

599
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 1: were excited about with Julio Jones and Roddy White. And

600
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: at the bottom of this list Keenan Allen, another young

601
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,719
Speaker 1: wide receiver that I'm really excited to see how he

602
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 1: continues to develop with Philip Rivers. And here are my

603
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 1: top ten tight ends with Jimmy Graham eating the list,

604
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 1: followed by Julius Thomas, Vernon Davis, Jordan Cameron, Dennis Pitta,

605
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: and of course I wanted to put Rob Gronkowski on

606
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: this list, but unfortunately our producer Alex q Wilk would

607
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: not allow me to put Gronkowski because we just don't

608
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 1: know about him. But I mean, that's a hard one.

609
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 1: If he's able to come back next year, he will

610
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,719
Speaker 1: certainly be on the the top five. But right now,

611
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 1: let's take a look at the top ten performers from Sunday.

612
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles I had him about that. I know you are.

613
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 1: I was pretty thrilled. Yes, thank you. I was excited

614
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 1: for you. Nick Foles, who has been highly recommended Weekend

615
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: week Out, Alex Smith, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Matt Castle. And here's

616
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: eleven through twenty led by D'Angelo Williams, Greg Jennings, E J.

617
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 1: Manuel makes the list. That was your bold prediction. You

618
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 1: said four touchdowns? He had just three. Yeah, well he

619
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: got close, but we knew he was gonna have a

620
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 1: big game. Yeah, you know, well he went. That's the thing.

621
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 1: You should still have to apologize for it. No, I'm

622
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 1: not gonna apologize. That was a bold prediction. But you okay,

623
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: you nailed anybody who's starting and only got that one touchdown,

624
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: then yes, we're sorry. That he didn't get out all right.

625
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: Now coming up, we celebrate the little guys, the underdogs,

626
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 1: the fellas who get no respect that who am I kidding?

627
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,719
Speaker 1: These guys help no one, warm up your vocal cords.

628
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: We'll be right back right after this second thinking and

629
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: sat again. Keep thinking of touchdown time for Wilson. He

630
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: hits gold and on this ship touched up time to Crow.

631
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: He's got us Uperman in the completion. I'm a dog.

632
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 1: Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live. Every week on NFL

633
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 1: dot Com, I write a column called Targets and Touches.

634
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 1: It spotlights the past catches who amass the most targets

635
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: every week and the running backs whose total touches that

636
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: week merit attention. Hopefully this helps you decide which players

637
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,719
Speaker 1: are worthy of starting or picking up in free agency

638
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: and which ones are just a passing fancy. You can

639
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 1: check it out at NFL dot com slash targets. So

640
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: right now we're gonn look at the running backs before

641
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: you look at the pass catchers. And we thought we

642
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: knew walk bar going into Sunday. Chris o'baniah was a

643
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 1: great start and he was gonna oh in the Pprley

644
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: he was gonna be tremendous, and then Edwin Baker signed

645
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: off the street, gets all the carriers, gets a touchdown.

646
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: What do it makes sense of this Browns back Well,

647
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 1: you know, that's very hard. Like I said, we talked

648
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 1: about this earlier. They did not have a good rhythm

649
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: going into this game. They had about six uh snaps

650
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: in the first quarter, and it was just a total

651
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: different game plan that they wanted to do to execute

652
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 1: against this defensive front that has been struggling. Chris ogwan

653
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: I out of that game plan. I'm not quite sure

654
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 1: if they trust ogwan I are not, But right now

655
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: you're having a mix up backfield. I would say, now,

656
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: stay away from this Cleveland Browns backfield. It's confusing. Edwin

657
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: Baker was on the Houston Texans practice squad about a

658
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: week ago. Texas had a lot of talent running back positions.

659
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: How he comes in and pick up that game plan

660
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: and starts getting going where Chud could coach Chud really

661
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: trust him over Oban I I'm not sure, but stay

662
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: away from the Cleveland Browns period. Yeah. Tough for match

663
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: up against the Jets this week going on the road

664
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: and this one now Patriots backfield face. We talked about

665
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 1: Shane Vereen earlier, still starting him as a flex maybe

666
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 1: a low one number two. What about the rest of

667
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: the guys now leave him on the waiver wire. That

668
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: includes Stephen Ridley, La Garrett Blunt. There is no one

669
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 1: in this backfield that you can trust this side Shane Green,

670
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: and I still trust him despite the fact that he

671
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: burned me this week. The Patriots backfield is all about committee.

672
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: It's all about playing to a player's strengths. The Garrett Blunt,

673
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: he's the bruiser, he's the big guy. He's gonna be

674
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: the goal line guy. Marine's gonna catch them all in

675
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: the backfield. Ridley will be in there occasionally when maybe

676
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: the Patriots are in a safe mode where fumbling isn't

677
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: an issue. You block all right. Here's the most targeted

678
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: players Week fifteen. Kendall Wright tremendous number of targets, had

679
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty yards receiving on Sunday. He'll be

680
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 1: on my breakout list for next season in the off season,

681
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 1: but he's finishing up this year pretty strong so far.

682
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman nineteen targets, Danny Mudla four teen targets. Fans,

683
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: how high do you trust both of these guys next week?

684
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: Edelman has been unbelievable. He's been so good this season.

685
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 1: He's been better than West Welker in the second half

686
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 1: of the season, both on the field and in fantasy

687
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,479
Speaker 1: right now. He's a wide receiver too. In most leagues PPR,

688
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: He's right there as well. Danny Amendolo, we talked about

689
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: it yesterday. I said, I think he's at three and

690
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: maybe a borderline two in a PPR league. And he

691
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: came out and had a very successful game. And it

692
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: was one of those games where you though the Patriots

693
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: are run because the Dolphins have been really good against

694
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: the past, but Bill Belichick decided I'm going right at

695
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: their strength, alright, So both those guys going forward. How

696
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: about t Y Hilton, luck bar, He's been invisible for

697
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: much of the season, but he did catch eight passes

698
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: down against the Texas. Well. You know, t Y Hilton

699
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: has always had that special talent, especially as a slot

700
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 1: wide receiver. He can make things happen, especially in open space.

701
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: And you know, I thought that he really did a

702
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: good job of taking advantage of some of that off

703
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 1: coverage at the Houston Texas were playing against him, and

704
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 1: when you get that kind of looking to get that

705
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,479
Speaker 1: type of coverage, you know t Y Hilton is going

706
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: to succeed. So I say, based on matchup, you can

707
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: see how you want to plug and play t Y Hill.

708
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: Next week though, is the Chiefs. Can you trust them?

709
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 1: Just have a big game against the Chiefs. I'm gonna

710
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: actually back off that Chief's defense with t Y Hilton.

711
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: I wouldn't put them, especially now you're getting into championship game.

712
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 1: Depending if you're playing weeks sixteen weeks seventeen championships, I'd

713
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: actually play off of a lot of points though to

714
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Yeah, the Raiders got up a lot of

715
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: points the other way to both. All right, so hold

716
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: off on t Y Hilton for Week seven. Team. Hopefully

717
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 1: some of the players we just talked about helped you

718
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 1: to victory or can be assets to you this coming week.

719
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: We need to make equal time. The original title of

720
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 1: this next bit was players whose achievements aided the smallest

721
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: percentage of active Fantasy owners. Luckily for US, Adam Rank

722
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: shortened it too. That helps no one, Thank you very much, Jason.

723
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 1: That's right. Each week we take a look back of

724
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: those unheard of players who rob precious fantasy points from

725
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: the guys. We actually started on Sunday. It's a tear

726
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: jerker for some curtain jerkers. A segment I like to

727
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: call that helps no owner. Let's go to the video.

728
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: We will start in Oaktown. Jamal Charles already with five

729
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: touchdown at this point, he's wide open and get it

730
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 1: to Dare. But no, he's got it. Well, why wouldn't

731
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 1: you go to Seth McGrath when you got a chance

732
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: to go to Sean McGrath. I should say I didn't

733
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,360
Speaker 1: even get his hand in correct because I'm so furious

734
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,239
Speaker 1: because I needed another touchdown. Why do you not want

735
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: to break? Why is Andy Reid he hates running backs,

736
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 1: doesn't want to give him a chance to tire your record?

737
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: Why is everybody afraid of time records? You know what

738
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 1: I'm saying with that, Go on, Minnesota. We're about to

739
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: get a triple play from the ghost of Chuck Foreman,

740
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 1: the man who has the audacity to pull the forty

741
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: four out of the way the biking I just got

742
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 1: matt Aciata from the from I'm from the West Coast.

743
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 1: I can say Utah's to you, right, but I loved it.

744
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: But guess what that has so long? Because Akbar wasn't

745
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: in the playoffs anymore? Jacksonville action Jackson in the backfield.

746
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: But no, it's a toss to Franklin Dilator Summers sway,

747
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: you know, mersity of Nevada Las Vegas, who will be

748
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: going to the heart of Texas ball and that on

749
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 1: Carolina New York Jets near the goal line? Who is that?

750
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 1: That's right, Sheldon Richardson, No, no, no, Sheldon Richardson. Actually

751
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,879
Speaker 1: I'm starting him in an IDP league. But you don't

752
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: get points for that because just the same way Tony

753
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 1: Romo doesn't get points when he tackles people on in

754
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: his interceptions, you don't get these here. And guess what,

755
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: So that's a big fat sorry, I'm losing you guys.

756
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,719
Speaker 1: All right, Indianapolis, all right, we're gonna we're gonna play

757
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 1: fast and lose with the rules here. I understand Andy Luck.

758
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 1: That helps somebody, but not Griff Whalen. This is a

759
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,840
Speaker 1: little bit of Stanford nepotism. Oh, I'm gonna drop the

760
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 1: play for my buddy. We'll get you into the end.

761
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: The Ivy league of the whist. I do not appreciate

762
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 1: this because he should be throwing into t Y Hilton

763
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: because this the Griff Whalen that on We're gonna stay

764
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: here at what you're about to see is one of

765
00:35:59,920 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: the most disappointing things in fantasy football history. Richardson, Trent

766
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: Richardson with the two little too late the touchdown. And

767
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: if you saw that tweet that was from Brandon McCarthy

768
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 1: of who the Arizona Diamondbacks, who was a little upset

769
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 1: that this came after all of us who drafted him

770
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 1: in the first round were eliminated from our fantasy playoffs.

771
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: So to you, Trenton Richardson that Hell, let's look at

772
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: the board. Look at it, Edwin Baker's name up there.

773
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: You talk about this. He scored more points for the

774
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: Browns in that game, I think than Trent Richardson did

775
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: for the entire year for the Browns. Is it close? Well?

776
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: Can I just say this? Can you say I think

777
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to draft Sheldon Richardson as a good full

778
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:42,959
Speaker 1: fullback or running back for next year. He's a Jets

779
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 1: best offensive player. Yes, bumping around Twitter that he has

780
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: more touchdowns in Keem dicks. Now that's true. After that

781
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 1: is bad. All right. Now remember if you see eight

782
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 1: if you want to see your tweet featured on the show,

783
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: us the hashtag that helps no One when you see

784
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: a fantasy score, that rock bar comes no one. Alright,

785
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 1: and it's time now for the that helps winner of

786

Speaker 1: the week. Can I get a drum roll? Please? It

787
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: should come, as I've been waiting. Hold on, I've been

788
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 1: waiting for this one. Ruined my fantasy team, my league

789
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 1: of record. I am done. How come you didn't get

790
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: the other Richardson? The other Richardson. It was more impressed

791
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,400
Speaker 1: as I had him in the IDP league, so I

792
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: liked it. Would you stop? Alright? Sorry, all right, we're

Speaker 1: thanks to what he did yesterday. Jamaal Charles that we've

821
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,800
Speaker 1: learned something every week here in NFL Fantasy Live. Experts

822
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: like us, we still learned lessons constantly. So every week

823
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 1: we like to tell you something we picked up on Sunday. Right,

824
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 1: what did you learn on Sunday? I was more reaffirmed.

825
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,920
Speaker 1: But I'm talking about Mark Tressman. He is going to

826
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: be your coach of the year. I really questioned this

827
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 1: guy didn't know if he was making the right move

828
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 1: by going to Jay Cutler when Josh mccount had played

829
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,800
Speaker 1: so well. But the coach, you know what, he was

830
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: steadfast all along saying that when Cutler is healthy enough

831
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: to return, he's going to be the quarterback. And he

832
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: certainly was proven correct in that game against Cleveland Browns.

833
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: The Bears want to briefly take first place there in

834
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 1: the NFC North, and Cutler was pretty good, close to

835
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: three hundred yards, he had a number of touchdowns. Nice

836
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: little past alshon Jeffrey, of course, who might have done

837
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: all the work on that one, but Cutler looked pretty good.

838
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 1: Now he's going to have a couple of weeks or

839
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks now of being the number one starter,

840
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,399
Speaker 1: of taking all those snaps. And this is a good

841
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: guy who could go out and win a fantasy championship

842
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 1: for you. This week he's going up against the Philadelphia Eagles.

843
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 1: That's a pretty nice matchup, not too bad, not too good.

844
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: And there's some other names out there too, Kirk Cousins,

845
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: another guy, Ryan Tannehill. So there's some quarterback options out

846
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 1: there if you're scared off for perhaps Aaron Rodgers doesn't

847
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: come back or something like that. Yes, still have some

848
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,760
Speaker 1: guys out there can put up some big fantasy numbers

849
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 1: this year. Now, this is this is serious because Akbar

850
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 1: doesn't like to go brand name. He does he's not

851
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 1: a brand name guy. But he's gonna go brand name

852
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 1: right now. You know what, I really believe Kirk Cousins

853
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: will be a name brand player for next season. And

854
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 1: when you think about the type of production he remember

855
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: last year when he came in and started against the

856
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns, put three yards up in the air, two touchdowns.

857
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: He comes out in his second opportunity and he puts

858
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 1: up a similar type of stat three eighty one yards.

859
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 1: And he's out there and he's making big plays, not

860
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 1: afraid to take the deep throws. He's actually going through

861
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: his reads, not just stopping at the one or second read,

862
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: but he's actually scanning the field. So this lets me

863
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 1: know that he understands offense, he understands football. He can

864
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,360
Speaker 1: be a player, whether he's traded or whether he stays

865
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,360
Speaker 1: with the Washington riskins and fight for a spot to

866
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 1: be a starting quarterback. I think that he can be

867
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 1: that guy. I want you to take a look at

868
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 1: my my guys for next season. As I'm starting to

869
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: think since I'm out, not like Adam, I don't have

870
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 1: the ability to be playing for a championship. I started

871
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,799
Speaker 1: thinking about some guys here. Asia Peterson of course will

872
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: still be that number one guy, but take a look

873
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 1: at who I have now in the top running now.

874
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:12,919
Speaker 1: Josh Gordon is a guy that we weren't talking about

875
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: as this as much as we've been talking about him now.

876
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: I like Josh Gordon. Of course, Eddie Lacy, very impressive

877
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 1: as a young rookie, is a running back. He's a

878
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 1: guy that I'm also aiming for as well. And you

879
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: still have Arian Foster in the first round. Yes, I do.

880
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 1: And you know he's just been bid by the bug

881
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: of injury. He just wasn't healthy. So I'm still talking

882
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,840
Speaker 1: Aaron Foster as a first round running back right now.

883
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,240
Speaker 1: Speaking of running back, So lessen we I learned on Sunday,

884
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: I can trust and all of us can trust the

885
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,839
Speaker 1: unknown number one running back. When you know a guy

886
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,879
Speaker 1: is gonna step in and he's gonna get the lion

887
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: share of the carries, you can trust to start him

888
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: in your lineup. Look at Matt Asiata. We knew he

889
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 1: was the number one guy. Thirty carries on Sunday, only

890
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 1: at fifty one yards, but it didn't matter. You've got

891
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: tons of fantasy points. Jordan Toddoman had a great day

892
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: running the football over a hundred yards, receiving the football

893
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 1: as well. If it's it's a different story. If guys

894
00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 1: aren't gonna be the true number one is all this

895
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 1: guy's gonna split time. But you've seen it all season long.

896
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 1: Blal Powell, Bobby Rainy, Mike James, Zach Stacy stepped in

897
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 1: when it was who knows who this guy is? If

898
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: you could be any good and suddenly this guy becomes

899
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 1: a star. You can trust that number one running back.

900
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 1: The matchup is good, They're gonna get the carries. It's

901
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 1: okay to have to be scared off of it. Take

902
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 1: a look at some top performers from Sunday and yeah,

903
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 1: you see some players who are up there running backwise

904
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: Eddie Lacy and Matt Asiata sitting there at number eight

905
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: and a bar. I give you credit again. You said

906
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:28,440
Speaker 1: Matt Asiata was going to get a lot of carries.

907
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 1: You kind of undersold him. He said eighteen carries and

908
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,920
Speaker 1: he had third. We had thirty. But the truth is

909
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 1: that he was a touchdown beast him. He was down

910
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,960
Speaker 1: there in the goal line area and he capital. That

911
00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: was the type of player he was. It Utah, I mean,

912
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: he was just that physical player. All right, Fabs. Yesterday

913
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: you were in a huge conundrum all day long. Do

914
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: I go with Tom Brady Colin Kaepernick? Tom Brady, Colin Kaepernick.

915
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:51,439
Speaker 1: You went with Tom Brady and you learned a lesson.

916
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 1: I did well. They both scored twenty points, so it

917
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 1: didn't matter whichever when I went. There's no difference. But

918
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is still going to be Tom Brady even

919
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:03,240
Speaker 1: without Rob Bryankowski. This was an awful matchup. The Miami

920
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 1: Dolphins are one of the best pass defenses in the

921
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: National Football League, and Tom Brady tore them apart. With

922
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman and Danny Amendolah, heck, I can't even say

923
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 1: anything about Chaine Green because he didn't catch that many passes.

924
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is right now in the best form that

925
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,400
Speaker 1: he's been in all season long. He struggled earlier on,

926
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 1: but this is a guy even against coming up, they're

927
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,239
Speaker 1: playing against the Baltimore Ravens. How do you sit him?

928
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:30,680
Speaker 1: All right? Take a look at what we learned. Adam

929
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 1: Rank told us trust Mark Trestman, trust Jay Cutler. Kirk

930
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:36,959
Speaker 1: Cousins a brand name. According to Akbar, you can trust

931
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: the unknown number one running backs as long as they're

932
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,360
Speaker 1: getting the carries, and Tom Brady will be fine without

933
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski. Again, don't forget about NFL dot Com slash

934
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,439
Speaker 1: Fantasy Awards. We're gonna reveal all our big awards coming
