Now down fourteen to ten. 27 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: Next drive, same result, different layers. Joint Bell plunges in 28 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: for the one yard touchdown. Yes, number thirty five, do 29 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: it over again. Remember that? And now just before the half, 30 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: how about Stafford Megatron unstoppable one six point six fantasy 31 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: points for Kelvin Johnson. And they kept it rolling in 32 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: the fourth on a third and goal of the joint 33 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: bell again seventeen lions. How about the end of the game, 34 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: Bears trying to help out their fantasy fans. Cutler, it's 35 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall, stop pages carry Yeah, offsetting penalties results and 36 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: re trying to don Okay, so here we go and 37 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: send the touchdowns for Cutler and possibly Marshall. Yeah, the 38 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:49,839 Speaker 1: Bears would try again, and at this time cutlery, there 39 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: you go minus two. Unless you had the Lion's defense, 40 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: you gotta plus two. Cutler loses two, team pick up two, 41 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: and there you go to Detroit wins seventeen. Here are 42 00:02:59,919 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: you leaders? A point of polosa for those Lions. Twenty 43 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: plus for Stafford, Bell, and Kelvin Johnson. Not so bad 44 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: outing for Jake Cobbler fifteen field out by cool exactly 45 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: or maybe even you know, twenty two if that Marshall 46 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: touched on what it got in and then stopped at 47 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 1: the one inch line. Here we go. A nice win 48 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: for Detroit just from the football terms of things, but 49 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: as we spend it forward for the fantasy sort of things, 50 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: here's a look at the Lions fantasy playoffs schedule starting 51 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: next week. The Bucks vikings at home, and then they're 52 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: at the Bears. That's about as good as it's gonna get, right. 53 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: How do we like Matthew Stafford going forward when you 54 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: see that schedule, Well, he's a matchup based guy, and 55 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: the matchups are good. We talked about starting Matthew Stafford 56 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: this week going into Thanksgiving, and he puts up a 57 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: very good stat line. It's great that he asked Calvin 58 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: Johnson back in the mix, but he's not only fantasy 59 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: quarterback money. But again, the matchup is right. You start 60 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford and based on the schedule, the matchups are 61 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: gonna be right. And think about this, if he gets 62 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: his offensive lineman back to he got a couple of 63 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: those that's expected to come back. I mean, now all 64 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: of a sudden, that protection is a little bit better. 65 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna see some of that production. I agree with you. 66 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: He is a low end QB one, but he's still 67 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: going to be able to get some big fantasy points 68 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: for you. Match up not only good for Calvin Johnson, 69 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford and all of his targets, but also good 70 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 1: for the running game. And Joeke Bell had just over 71 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: twent d two fantasy points. It was his best game 72 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: of the season because of the matchups. Is he a 73 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: solid let's say RB two, a must start RB for 74 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs? No solid RB two, No, I would say flex. 75 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: And remember, Reggie Bush is coming back, right. We thought 76 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: he was going to be back on Thanksgiving. It didn't happen. 77 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: But when he comes back, that's more mouths defeat in 78 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: this offense. But this was a good matchup. The Bears 79 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: have been lousy against the run. Reggie Busch was out, 80 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: they didn't use theoretic very much, and they got goal 81 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: line opportunities for him and he definitely cashed in. Yeah, 82 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: he's a flex option at best flux. He's right, you know, 83 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: when you look at that first half, he didn't get 84 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: it going until the second half, and that's where he 85 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 1: really started to get going. And this Bears defense hasn't 86 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: been all that spectacular. So when you think about moving 87 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: down Reggie Bush gets in there there passing offense, I 88 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: think his production goes down the way down. Now we 89 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: mentioned Tampa, Minnesota, and Chicago too, of those games inside 90 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: the sweet conditions of Ford Field. Let's go to the 91 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: other side of the ball though, because some more question marks. 92 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: Your Bears fantasy playoff schedule starts at home next Thursday. 93 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: It's a Thursday night or against the Cowboys. They do 94 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: have a full week of wrest so so that's certainly 95 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: benefits both of those teams. And we're actually going to 96 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: be there are We're NFL Fantasy Live gonna be in 97 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: Chicago for that game. Then their home Week fifteen for 98 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: the Saints, Week sixteen for the Lions. So let's start 99 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: with Matt Forte. Five carries six yards on Thanksgiving, did 100 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: have a little bit of action in the passing game. 101 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: Are we worried about him at all? No, not at all. 102 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: The Lions defense is very good against the run. We 103 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: all know that, and Forte is a stunt. He's an 104 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: elite fantasy running back. Okay, he didn't have a good 105 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: game yesterday, but listen, we all have bad days, don't we. 106 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: Money so might cost me a playoff personal league, Well, 107 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,559 Speaker 1: I apologize for that, but I'm still starting that Forte 108 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: with a lot of confidence, especially against the Cowboys on 109 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: Thursday night. That Cowboy's defense is starting to look bad. 110 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: You know, I'll tell you when you look at with 111 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: the production of Matt Forte, some some fantasy owners might 112 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: get scared about that, but you have to remember he's 113 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: a part of the like you just talked about, He's 114 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: he's not just a one dimensional running back. He's a 115 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: part of the passing game as well. So as they 116 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 1: start to move towards it, you're gonna see that production 117 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: pick up in the passing game, He'll still be able 118 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: to get his run. He was your first run pick. 119 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: You're starting him. He has a hiccup against the law, 120 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: so be it. Al Shan Jeffrey had one of his 121 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: best games of the year, put up about twenty Fantasy 122 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: points yesterday. How much do you trust starting him going forward? 123 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: He's a low one high to at least in my opinion, 124 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: and I know an our league, I benched him because 125 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: I have Josh By Studio Jones and t y Lton. 126 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: My wide receivers are staffed, and I didn't like the matchup. 127 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: Literally I was wrong. Uh it was the worst matchup 128 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: as it turns out for Brandon Marshall. But Alshan has 129 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 1: been better than Brandon Marshall this year from a fantasy perspective. 130 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: But that the truth is too is it gets a 131 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: little mumble jumbled there. You've got Brandon Marshall, You've got 132 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 1: al Sean, and then you've got Marte excusing Martell to 133 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: spend it too as well in the past, and Matt 134 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: Fourte So it does get crowded there for Alshon Jeffrey 135 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: to be able to be able to produce consistently. Stick 136 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: with Martella spannett Um double digits, you know, ten point nine, 137 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: no touchdown, but had those hundred nine yards exactly. What 138 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: about moving forward? You're comfortable with him, it's your tight end. 139 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: I am the dude is playing big, He's playing like 140 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: his size, and I think they're going to utilize that. 141 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: When you see the matchup going up against it's like 142 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: I always say, it's like being at the low post, 143 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: and that's what he is. He's very good at the 144 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: low post and making it work. And you see them 145 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: utilizing him here in this shot as far as in 146 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: the short passing game. So I think Martell has been 147 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: is a guy that you can play. He's one of 148 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: those sneaky tight end plays that you can count on. 149 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: I just don't trust him. This was his best game 150 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: in a long time. Emtional or is that real? See 151 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: that Martelling? Like, I know Martella's from Twitter, He's we 152 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: talked on Twitter occasionally and he's a good dude. I 153 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: just don't trust him. This was his first big game 154 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: in a long time, and really ever since the month 155 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: of September. Look at his numbers, they haven't been all 156 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: that great. But the tight end position is so bad 157 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: this year. So the plays Travis Kelsey or Martelli Spennet 158 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: for the will depends on the martelis on the mortelis been. 159 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: It's week top ten. Yes, he is in a bad 160 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: tight end position. Yes, okay, so he is. I'm gonna 161 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: start then I guess you stop. That mean that I 162 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: trust him to put up good numbers everywhere. A reminder 163 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: to stick around because later in the show we have 164 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: more Thanksgiving Day leftovers. We'll have complete recaps of the Eagles, Cowboys, 165 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: and Seahawks for games. But first, Josh Gordon made his 166 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: season debut last weekend. Was he worth the weight? Well, 167 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: you take a look at these numbers and you can 168 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 1: decide for yourself. Gentlemen, seventy six percent of fantasy managers 169 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: that started Josh Gordon one their Week twelve matchup. You 170 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: were one of those. All about our expectations for Josh 171 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: Gordon moving forward, they're extremely high. And you may look 172 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: at the matchup this week at the Gal He's playing 173 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,719 Speaker 1: the Bills on the road. It's tough matchup, but the 174 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: Bills have actually not been good at home against wide receivers. 175 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: This is the number one white and Fantasy last year. Guys, 176 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: you waited all year to have him in your lineup. 177 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: Stir up. That's why I didn't play Alish on this 178 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: week and Josh and you may be nervous too because 179 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills they get after the quarterbacks now and 180 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: they've been able to their top right now in the 181 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: league and put quarterback sex. But you have to look 182 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: on the offensive line side. For the Cleveland Brown they 183 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: don't give up a lot of sacks and so they're 184 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: protecting their quarterbacks. So that's going to be one that 185 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: you're gonna watch in the trenches. I like that. I 186 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 1: think they're still gonna be who. You're still gonna be 187 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: able to find Josh Gordon deep and he's gonna get 188 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: them ball off and you can't stop him. Last year 189 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: he was unstoppable. It didn't matter what defense you played 190 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: against him. He was putting up huge money. And those 191 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: short us defense would be a good test because we 192 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 1: get after that quarterback for more. Now we throw it 193 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: over to Marcus Grant and Adam Rank. Thank you money. 194 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: By the way, the answer you're looking for, g A. Richards. 195 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: G A. Richard's that's what we're looking for. Anyway, We're 196 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,079 Speaker 1: here as always getting caught up with all the latest 197 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: news and notes from around the National Football League. Will 198 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: start in Houston, where on Thursday, Texans head coach Bill 199 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,839 Speaker 1: O'Brien's told reporters he expects running back Arian Foster to 200 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. Foster's missed the last 201 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: two games due to a join injury. But if he 202 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: does get the start this week, rank, what are your 203 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: expectations for him against a bad Titans run defense? And 204 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: the worth still holding on Alfred Blue? Well, yes, I'll 205 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 1: start with Alfred Blue. Hold onto him because Aaron Foster 206 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: does have that history of injury, so make sure that 207 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: he's still on your roster. The thing with Foster is 208 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: that you would expect like, hey, Blue has been running 209 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: pretty well, maybe they'll do a split. Nope, the Foster plays, 210 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: They'll run him like forty times. They do it every 211 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 1: time he returns from injury. They just go after him, 212 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: go nuts and uh yeah, So he'll start and play 213 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: him and just hold onto Blue. It feels like we've 214 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: had this conversation every week for like a month. Because 215 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: we have had this conversation every week for like a month. 216 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: There you go. Some good news for the Broncos, signing. 217 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: Julius Thomas was back at practice Thursday, was seen stretching 218 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: on Friday Thomas missed last week's game due to an 219 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,599 Speaker 1: ankle injury he suffered Week eleven against the Ramps. So 220 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: if Julius gets the start against the Chiefs on Sunday night, 221 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: is there any hesitation about plugging him into your life? 222 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: No hesitation at all. JT needs to be in your 223 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: lineup each and every week. And you know the great 224 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: thing about Peyton Manning is that it doesn't matter what 225 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: the score is if he gets near the gold five. 226 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: Why we're not giving it to a running back who's 227 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: been killing it all day. Now, We're gonna go five 228 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: wide and I'm gonna pad my touchdown stads, which I appreciate. 229 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: I I like it. Peyton Manning is Bud Chilmer on 230 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: the field. Pretty much. There you go. More tight end 231 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: news called side end. Duyne Allen has officially been ruled 232 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 1: out for Sunday's matchup with Washington. Allen miss last week's 233 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: game after injuring his ankle against the Patriots in Week eleven, 234 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 1: hasn't practiced it all this week. So how much do 235 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: you like Kobe Fleaner now this world? I don't like 236 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: him at all because my buddy Scott Jane, He's got 237 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,599 Speaker 1: him going against me in our little good record, and 238 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there. I had I have Dwayne Allen and 239 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: I had to bench him, and I had Martelis Ben 240 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: and I didn't want to go there, but me, Kuby 241 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: Fleiner is a great option because again, this offense is 242 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,319 Speaker 1: very prolific. You want a guy who's gonna get targeted 243 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: a lot. Luck looks at his tight ends an awful 244 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: an awful lot. So he's a good play and if 245 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: you got him, you're you're stoked. In between last year 246 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: and this year, the injuries are starting to pile up 247 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: a little bit for Duyne Allen a little bit, a 248 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: little bit, a little bit concerning right now. Cardinals wide 249 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: receiver Larry Fitzgerald missed practice Friday, but told reporters Thursday 250 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: it is highly likely he'll play this weekend against the Falcons. 251 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 1: Fits miss last Meets game due to an mc l 252 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: sprain he suffered in week eleven. It was the first 253 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: game he's missed since way back in two thousand seven. 254 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: So it fitz Gerald suits up this week, how much 255 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: do you like him against that Land. I'm fair to 256 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: Midland on Fitzgerald. I feel like this is gonna be 257 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: a good opportunity for Michael Floyd to go out and 258 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 1: kind of established himself. Because if Fitzgerald is on the field, 259 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: you still gotta pay attention to him. But if he's 260 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: not running as crisp or as well as he has 261 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: over the course of his career, that means Michael Floyd 262 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 1: will get an opportunity to get up. And of course 263 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 1: John Browns another guy who's there stretching the defense. So 264 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: Floyd is the guy that I really like in this situation. 265 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: From your lips to the fantasy football gods are paying 266 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:50,599 Speaker 1: uh no, But but I don't like him, and you 267 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: know what will happen? Then I have learned my lesson. 268 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: Be sure to set your DVRs for our late area 269 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: of NFL Fantasy Line for all the latest injury news 270 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: and updates for your roster.

Let's go third quarter, second and six. 297 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: How about Shady Shady nicoy thirty eight yard touchdown run, 298 00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: A monster of a game. You said it three weeks ago. Apps, 299 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: If you're gonna trade for Shady, do it before the 300 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: Tennessee game. Back to back monsters for the pit product, 301 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: and by pit I mean Pitt Tampert. Of course there's 302 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 1: Jim Kelly where in the first place and Jerry Jobs 303 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: creaking out. Here are your point totals about Sanchez Man 304 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: top point producer twenty one point four eight points. To 305 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: see the Eagles defense there with a monster fourteen for them. 306 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: We thought this was gonna be a point explosion, and 307 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: it once one half of the participants, Jerry B. Mclin, 308 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: Jordan Matthews both and double digits. As we mentioned, Shady 309 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: McCoy there with the nineteen point nine. But why don't 310 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: we start off with the winning side. That's what we 311 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: typically like to do the Eagles, and we spent it 312 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: forward to their fantasy their fantasy playoff schedule. I'm still 313 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: trip to fend out there and home versus the Seahawks tough, 314 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: then at home for the Cowboys in week fifteen, they 315 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: finish up at the Redskins. So a little bit of good, 316 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: little bit of bad. Mark Sanchez over twenty fantasy points 317 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: versus the Cowboys. Do you trust him for that playoff run? No? 318 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: Not not unless I have a good matchup. I mean, 319 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: Sanchez is a guy who had a great game against 320 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: the Panthers, but the Panthers were lousy. Cowboys great game, 321 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense is now playing lousy and the two 322 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: games in between yet fewer than fifteen fantasy points, and 323 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: it was turning the ball over. So against the Seahawks 324 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: next week, if you want to start Mark Sanchez, be 325 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: my guest. I won't touch him with a ten foot poll. 326 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: The week after against the Cowboys matchup big starter. And 327 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people always point out the twelve and 328 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: Seattle and you look at the numbers. Home or away 329 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: quarterbacks do not farewell against the Seattle Seahawks team. So 330 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: you're right, you probably have another quarterback on your roster. 331 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: Go ahead and Lee Sanchez R. But Philip Rivers had 332 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: a great game against the that same Seahawks team was 333 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: a week way way long time ago. And yeah, it'll 334 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: be interesting to see whether or not this, uh, this 335 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: Eagles offense is Seahawks proof, legion of boom proof, because 336 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: they've been so prolific regardless of who's been back there. 337 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: It seems like shitty McCoy back to his old self. 338 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: Gotta believe we mentioned a second ago rank happy he 339 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: could trade it for him a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, 340 00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: and you know what, the improvement really started when Mark 341 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: Sanchez started to take over this offense because as we 342 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: talked about before, Matt is that Sanchez is better for 343 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,239 Speaker 1: the read option and the Cowboys had to respect him 344 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 1: as a runner. And you see right there, they've been 345 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: gassing them all day. And then that's the that's the 346 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: result right there. When you're able to run this offense effectively, 347 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,719 Speaker 1: big plays like that will continue to happen. Again. It's 348 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 1: gonna be a tough matchup next week against the Seahawks, 349 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: but still you gotta play these guys. How about Jordan 350 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: Matthews versus the Seahawks beats these are three or a 351 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: flex starter Again. That Seahawks defense is playing awesome right now. 352 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: We're looking at the Seahawks defense from two thousand and 353 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: thirteen over the last few weeks. I mean they have 354 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: been just impenetrable. So Matthews is a three because he's 355 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: been hot, because he's got a great report with Sanchez, 356 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: but I temper my expectations. Well, it kind of goes 357 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: to the same conversation Adam and Mike that we had 358 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: with uh with Sanchez is this is not the playoffs. 359 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: So chances are Jordan Matthews is on your roster, of 360 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez is on your roster, you have other players 361 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: at those positions. These are waiver wire pickups that you 362 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: were doing, you know, using his matchup bass. So let 363 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: me stay away from the hot hand and recognize the matchup. 364 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: To the other side of things, the Cowboys and we 365 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 1: look ahead to their Fantasy playoffs schedule. You see it 366 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: at Chicago next Thursday. That's a great deal. Then at 367 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: Philly we thought it was gonna be better. Maybe it'll 368 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: come back for him in week sixteen. The Colts, So 369 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: Tony Romo going forward? Do you trust him? You want 370 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: to ask me this one? Huh sho, No, no, no, 371 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: I'm not too passed. I still think he's a matchup 372 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 1: based starter. This is one bad game. It was one 373 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: really bad game, but if you look at his numbers 374 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 1: overall over the last four weeks, they's still been pretty good. 375 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: And I think he bounces back against the Chicago Bears 376 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: on Thursday night. Unless it's ridiculously cold, snowy, windy, you know, 377 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 1: the weather conditions can be a factor. But everybody has 378 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: a bad game. Romo just happened to have a really 379 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 1: bad game against a really good matchup. Don't overreacting this too, 380 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: because they're coming off a huge win at New York 381 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: last week, short week coming in. You know what, the 382 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 1: Eagles I just felt were more going to be more 383 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: prepared for this. When you put Chip Kelly against any 384 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 1: and that's stripped down offense. I just I just felt 385 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: like the Eagles were gonna be able to go ahead 386 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: and get after them. And now they're gonna have a 387 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: full week to prepare for the Bears, who haven't been 388 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: able to shut down anybody defense. Look what Josh McCown, 389 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: I mean, Matt Stafford got on track yesterday, no doubt 390 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: about it. That is the That is the defense you'd 391 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: like to be playing in the first week of the playoffs. 392 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 1: To our last Thanksgiving Day game, it was a triple 393 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 1: head or the nightcap an NFC West showdown between the 394 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: Seahawks and the forty nine ers. Colin Kaepernick, his bill 395 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: is the flattest. Russell Wilson got a good looking ahead 396 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 1: of hair after a Kaepernick interception. Seahawks second and goal 397 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: from the thirteen. Oh Bob Turban tiptoes the sideline in 398 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: for the touchdown. Go of Utah State act. Everybody, everybody 399 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: logan is going crazy. Dang right, they are Seahawks up 400 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 1: seven up, Then keep it going to the second third nine. 401 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: Wilson to Tony Mowiyaki. What a beautiful play this was 402 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: for Russell Wilson. And that is that is the difference 403 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: between running, because you run and running only when you 404 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 1: have to come on, Mowiaki, come on man, pick it up? 405 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: Is pick it up? A little bit more respect for 406 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: the Iowa Hawkeyes than how slow he was getting snatched 407 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: up from behind six point three points there Wilson about 408 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: two and a half. It led to a field goal 409 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: now thirteen zero. Marshawn Linch with the big one out 410 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: of the matchup. Marshawn runs over him thirty three yard 411 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: gained down to the nine hundred four yards on the 412 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: night they would settle for a field goal, no touchdown. 413 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: It's still ten point four on a Thursday. You're feeling 414 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: good about that for marshawn Um. Yeah, so there's that. 415 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: There's Richard Sherman I think had more receptions than Michael 416 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:36,919 Speaker 1: fredstred Kjepernick. I believe that to be an accurate statistic, 417 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: certainly after the games. What's your deal? What's your deal? 418 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: Every Thanksgiving? Here's your leaders. Russell Wilson. Again, there's talk 419 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: about those thirty point performances. You'll take seventeen on a 420 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 1: Thursday night, Bad bad night if you started any of 421 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: those Niners. The Seahawks defense, though, you drafted him high, 422 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: and it's paying off at the right time with the 423 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: playoffs here having a ribbed or at least the following week. 424 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: So let's start with the winning side. The Seahawks look 425 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: ahead to their fantasy playoff schedule, not so bad. They 426 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:09,719 Speaker 1: have Philly next week. If they can do the same 427 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: thing they need to the forty Niners at home, they're 428 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: at the clink, and then to Arizona. It's not easy. 429 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: But if this Seattle defense is as well, we can 430 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: expect from what they were on Thanksgiving night, then they're 431 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: going to give their offense a lot of opportunities. And 432 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson is a guy who if you look at 433 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: his numbers, even against bad matchups, he's given you fifteen, sixteen, 434 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,239 Speaker 1: seventeen Fantasy points. And it's because of what he can 435 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: do with the running game. You know, Adam talked about 436 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: the read option earlier. They're running the ball a lot 437 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:39,959 Speaker 1: like that with Russell Wilson this year, and I think 438 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: part of it is because, well, they don't have much 439 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: of the passing game. Zach Miller has been out, they 440 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: got rid of Percy Harvin, obviously, Sydney Rice is no 441 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 1: longer a member of this team. Sucking Bob Turbin Cooper 442 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: help what I'm saying. And he's still putting up good numbers. 443 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: So Wilson's a guy that you can trust because nobody 444 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 1: is smarter about running the football than Russell Wilson. You 445 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: right here, you see him just extending the plank here, 446 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: and it's not running the get points or get yards 447 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: or anything like that. He wants to extend to play 448 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 1: and allow these guys to get open. As you see, 449 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: he's wide open right there, and you can't help and 450 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: find him right there. If he was just a little 451 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: bit quicker, it would have been a little bit more 452 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: beneficial to your fantasy play is always downfield for Russell Wilson. 453 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: Seahawks defense Richard Sherman, he was well the protagonist of 454 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: the affair last night, certainly. And you look here at 455 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 1: four sacks, three takeaways, only three points allot. That's the 456 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: seventeen spot. And I, like I said, look, it's not 457 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: the easiest schedule, but it is when you consider who 458 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 1: they're basing in the success they've had against their back, 459 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: not only from a reality perspective, but a fantasy perspective 460 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: eleven plus fantasy points and four of their last six games. 461 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: And we also learned something else. When you play the Niners, 462 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,239 Speaker 1: that is now a favorable matchup for defenses. Look at 463 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 1: the numbers defenses have scored in Fantasyland against that Niners 464 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: team over the last few weeks. It's been pretty good. 465 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 1: They've got the Niners number the Super Bowl if you 466 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: make it there, it's Drew Stanton who's been throwing a 467 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: whole lot of picks. I mean, that could really be 468 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: a boon to your fantasy team. On the other side 469 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: of the ball forty Niners. They just could not get 470 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: anything going. I mean their path for the fantasy playoffs 471 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: at Oakland next week, then at Seattle, and they finish 472 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 1: at home week sixteen to the Chargers. How about Kaepernick 473 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: finishing with just three Fantasy points? Is he a start 474 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: in any of those three games in the postseason? Four? 475 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: You fabs he has had good matchups a lot. I mean, 476 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,199 Speaker 1: this wasn't one of them, and we had him as 477 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: a sick, but he said good matchups often in the 478 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: second half of the year, and Adam, he hasn't produced. Yeah, 479 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: he's really been one of those guys. You have to 480 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: wonder what's going on there, is that the offensive coordinator, 481 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: is that the play calling? What exactly is the problem? 482 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: Because all we heard about Jim Harbaugh is that he 483 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: turns quarterbacks around. But this it seems like Kaepernick is 484 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 1: starting to regress and he really again you said that 485 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: he's had great matches before, has not been able to 486 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: do anything with it. I don't know that I would 487 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: actually play him at any point for the rest of 488 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 1: the season. Uh, let's just throw one name out there, 489 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill, if he's on your waiver wire to pick 490 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 1: him up playing in the playoffs instead of cap Day 491 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: all night. No question, he's available too. If you started 492 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez yesterday and Bolden and Michael Crabtree. I assume 493 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: if we're sitting Colin Kaprick and let's blame Gabbert's coming 494 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 1: in to throw some basses, does that mean we're gonna 495 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: be sitting and Kuan Bolden and Crabtree for the post. 496 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: He should be sitting crab treat because he listened. He 497 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: has been in a major disappointment in a contract here 498 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: has really not produced in the statutes. And Bolden, while 499 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: he's had some good games, he is tough to predict. 500 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 1: A lot of times he'll give you two or three 501 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: points like he did in this game, and then the 502 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: next week came he gives you eight teams, so he 503 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 1: has a roll of the dice. I wouldn't even have 504 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: crab Tree on your roster. And the only reason to 505 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: be playing Bolden is if you're in a PPR like 506 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: because he gets targeted the most. I'll submit this to you, 507 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: rank of of all my preseason predictions, which of my 508 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: two and I had up quite a few, but which 509 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: of these two were better? Uh? Taken Toby Gerhards and 510 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: one or that Michael Crabtree would end up as a 511 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 1: top ten receiver. You know the fact that you still 512 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 1: called mark Ingram. I will still give you some credit 513 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: there when I did like, yes I did, I did 514 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: have Crabtree and Gerhard is to surprise NFL Fantasy Live, 515 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: we're dishing out our top ten QUB starts for the week. 516 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: See where your starter lands and who climbs to the 517 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 1: number one spot.

A. P. Welcome back to unhol Fantasy Live. 522 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 1: Matt money Smith here with a bar and Marcus. Gentlemen, 523 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 1: we are going to put you through some scenarios that 524 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 1: we are getting asked most about on social media head 525 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: to head. Help the people discover which is the better 526 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: start this week? What are the storm troopers are? A 527 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: minute on the clock. We're gonna get ripped through and 528 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: grip through as many as we can. Here we go 529 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: your first scenario, Fred Jackson versus the Browns or Ryan 530 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 1: Matthews versus the Ravens. I'm gonna go with Ryan Matthews 531 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 1: is all about that base. I'll go with Jackson, maybe 532 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: no trouble, but he gets in the trouble. Shane Vreen 533 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: versus the Packers or the Garrett Blunt versus the Packers. 534 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: I'm going Shane Verreen. I think they dump into him 535 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: out of the backfield to slow down that pass rush. 536 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: I don't. I disagree. I'm gonna go to look Garret Blunt. 537 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 1: I think he's the better play. He's gonna get those 538 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: goes in the tackles. You like that guy, all right? 539 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen versus the Ravens or Sammy Watkins versus the Browns. 540 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Sammy Watkins against the Browns. I agree. 541 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: I think Robert Woods game was last week. This is 542 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: the Sammy Watkins all right, even against the Browns. Alright. 543 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: Sean Jackson versus the Colts, or DeAndre Hopkins versus the Titans. 544 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins the Marks with eleven hundred stay strong. I 545 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,880 Speaker 1: like it. I like I'm going to de Jupins alright. 546 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: How about Kelvin Benjamin versus the Vikings or Tory Smith 547 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: versus the Chargers. I like the big body guys. I'm 548 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: gonna go with Kelvin Benja. Keep a green Kelvin Benjamin. 549 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: It's not in garments. Score points this week, alright, Last one, gentleman, 550 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: Kobe Fleaner, He's been a little this pointing lately versus 551 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: the Redskins or Antonio Gates also going on a different 552 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 1: pointing versus the Ravens. I'm gonna go on Tonio Gates. 553 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 1: I think that's the one guy that Philip Rivers can connect, 554 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: you know whatever, I'm gonna go. And the reason why 555 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: Kobe Fleaner with the eyes. He's looking better, He's getting 556 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 1: more and more common he's got maybe I'm watching him.

This weekend's got a feeling Chuck's gonna make 576 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: an appearance. Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Lot. Mat Money 577 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: Smith here with a bar, Fabs and Marcus. A lot 578 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: of QB question marks for this weekend. So we talk 579 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,719 Speaker 1: about the ones we're getting asked most about that our 580 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: fans are. They're allowing the amount of Twitter wherever it 581 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: may be, So FABS get us started. Mattie Ice the 582 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: Cardinals great defense, but it's Maddie Ice and they throw 583 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: the football a lot. Mattie Ice has not been good 584 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: and you look at the numbers over the last few weeks, 585 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 1: he is not producing like an elite fantasy quarterback. In fact, 586 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,959 Speaker 1: he's got a very bad matchup this week as well 587 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: against the Arizona Cardinals. They have a lot the third 588 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: fewest Fantasy points two quarterbacks over the last four weeks. 589 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: So if Ryan is on your team, I don't think 590 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: the force awakens in him this weekend. I am keeping 591 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 1: him on the dart worst theme around these parts today, 592 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: bar please refrain from Star Wars metaphors and just tell 593 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: us whether or not you're gonna start Philip Rivers. Well, 594 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna start Philip Rivers. And may the false 595 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: be with him while he's on the bench, on anybody 596 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: else's bench, because when you look at what he's done, 597 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 1: you know, the last couple of weeks, hasn't put up 598 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: more than thirteen Fantasy points. And you look at his production. 599 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: He's had four interceptions and two touchdowns in the last 600 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: four weeks. That's a lot of picks that he's been throwing. 601 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: And his schedule doesn't get any easier. And it starts 602 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: with this week against the Baltimore Ravens. You know, after 603 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: that they go to the Patriots, the Broncos, to Forts 604 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: and the Chiefs. I don't think you played Philip Rivers 605 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: at all. From here on out, you don't play Philip Rivers, 606 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: all right, Marcus to Cam Newton used to be Fantasy 607 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,479 Speaker 1: Gold this season a wild disappointment. Yeah, he has been 608 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: on the dark side of the force so far this season. 609 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: You cannot end right a week where we had a 610 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: bunch of teams on a buy, I actually might recommend 611 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: him against the Vikings defense that has really struggled against 612 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the last month or so. But with no 613 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: teams on a buy, you have a full complement of 614 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: quarterbacks available. Because Newton has struggled so much to see 615 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: one or more interceptions in seven straight games for the 616 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: guy I'm staying away from. All right, it looks like 617 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: a lot of staying away Rivers, Ryan and Newton. Here 618 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 1: we go. Get a look at our top ten qv 619 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: starts on NFL dot Com. You see Philip Rivers makes 620 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: it in there at the very last slot. This is 621 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: the aggregate. So all expect at NFL dot Com agree that, well, 622 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: he was a top ten guy. You see there though, 623 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez at number fourteen, and we already told you 624 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: what kind of points he piled up, so you can 625 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: only hope that those ahead of him will do the 626 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 1: same sort of damage, although j Cutler did for more. 627 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: Now we throw it over to our man, Adam Rine. 628 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: Bank your money. Every week I give the thumbs up 629 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: or the thumbs down to a wide variety of subject 630 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 1: from stings return to him not being on Raw the 631 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: next night, and of course the new Star Wars trailer. 632 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: Yet by cave, don't trust me with any schematic plans 633 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: for the new Battle Station. I'll fall apart like R 634 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: five D four and through it all. I also find 635 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: some time to talk a little fantasy football too, and 636 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: we'll start with Ryan Tannehill. I'm not sure if he's 637 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: the chosen one of the one written about in the 638 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: prophecy that is destined to lead your fantasy team to 639 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: the playoffs. All I can tell you is that he's 640 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: been great since his coach threatened to bench him in 641 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: favor of Matt Moore. Some tough love, kind of like 642 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: the way Yoda used it with Luke Skywalker during the 643 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: Young Jedi's training, But it's worked out for the Dolphins. 644 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: Tannehill has become a top fantasy quarterback, and this week 645 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: he's got the New York Jets, who have allowed them 646 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: most points of fantasy quarterbacks on the season. He's not 647 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: your only hope, but make sure that you start him. 648 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: I also want to get a thumbs up to Bengals 649 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: running back Jeremy Hill, and more thumbs up to the 650 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 1: Bengals coaching staff who did the right thing last week 651 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: when they gave Hill a lot of work when Giovanni 652 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 1: Bernard returned from his injuries. It carries were split right 653 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: down the middle last week, and I expect about the 654 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: same here against Tampa Bay. The matchup is favorable because 655 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: the Bucks have been very generous to running backs this year, 656 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: but it's also been very tough against the past, so 657 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: I expect Hugh Jackson to really attack this team on 658 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: the ground. We should give Hill plenty of chances. Now 659 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: it's time for the downside, and I don't like Josh 660 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: McCown this week. Funny the people who threaten who like 661 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 1: the muse that the Bear should have kept McCown instead 662 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: of Cutler pretty quiet last week when McCown helps Chicago win. Now, 663 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: I don't expect it to be any better this week 664 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: against the Bengals, who have allowed the six fewest points 665 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: of quarterbacks over the last month. And finally, I would 666 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: like to avoid Steven Jackson too. I know, I know, 667 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: he was the fantasy m v P last season, but 668 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: he's got a tough match of this week against the 669 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: Birds the Falcon's offensive Actually they're both Birds, but the 670 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: Falcons offensive line has been an issue all season and 671 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: it has hurt the production of just about every relevant 672 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: fantasy option in Atlanta. You won't get any easier this 673 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: week because the Cardinals have one of the top run 674 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: defenses in the business. And now here are some more 675 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: of my likes and dislikes. I like that Ben Roethlisberger 676 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: going up against the Saints. C J. Anderson has been 677 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: a personal fantasy hero of mine for the last couple 678 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: of weeks. Calvin Benjamin, Travis Kelsey on the dislike side, 679 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 1: Joe Flacco, my buddy, Terrence West, Andre Johnson. Of course, 680 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: Jason Witten. Don't think that I would have forgotten about 681 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: you and your less than one fantasy point on Thursday. 682 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: We'll still give you some up here, Jason, thanks for 683 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: all the help. Now, with the playoffs looming, you can't 684 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: afford to make any mistakes with your lineup this weekend. 685 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: So coming up, we're letting you know which cringe rbs 686 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 1: you can trust. Speaking of bacts, one who's been in 687 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: Floego lately, Justin Forsette joined the show. Next he'll tell 688 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: us all about his breakout season. You're gonna look here 689 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: at our aggregate rankings from all expoters. It's NFL dot com. 690 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: These are your running backs to Marco Murray of course 691 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: already the books, Matt Forte, Mars, Shawn Lynch, a little 692 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: bit of good and a whole lot of bad. On 693 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,760 Speaker 1: that front board. You see number thirteen there Lashawn McCoy. 694 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: He may end up in the number one slot following 695 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: Week thirteen. Solo. With that is our backdrop, we welcome 696 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,240 Speaker 1: you back to NFL Fantasy Live, the official fantasy football 697 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: show of the NFL. Money Here with Akbar, Fabs and 698 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 1: Marcus and it is time to talk about running back 699 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: question marks. For a week thirteen. We've been saying at 700 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: all show y'all, let's show long, spit it out, make 701 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: or break, that is what this weekend is. So we 702 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: got fifty fifty starts, Fabs, how about le Garrett Blunt, 703 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: whether or not you'll put them in your lineup. This 704 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: is a really tough one because you know the Patriots 705 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: backfield is impossible to predict. He came out that dropped, 706 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: but dropped by the Steelers two touchdowns laspeak for the Patriots. 707 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,840 Speaker 1: He led the Patriots in fantasy points last year, so 708 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: maybe you have some confidence in him, or it is 709 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: what Marcus sell tricks. That's why I cannot advise that 710 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,320 Speaker 1: you start Blunt is anything more than a flexed ordering, 711 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 1: especially against the Packers. They have a lot of the 712 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: fewest fantasy points of running backs over the last four weeks. 713 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: So do are dare here? This is risk rewards, all right? 714 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: So flex at best for your blunt. Let's go to 715 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: the Georgia Dome. The Falcons host the number one rush 716 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: defense and elite Cardinals. Akbar, what are you doing with 717 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: Steven Jackson? If of course we have flex at best 718 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 1: for Lagart Blunt, he's a hex on your on your roster. 719 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not messing with it. I'm not cooler 720 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,320 Speaker 1: with it. I'm cool on him. Okay, money, you know 721 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 1: what that means now. But I think Steven Jackson going 722 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: up against the Cardinals is that's tough defense. We saw 723 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: what he did against the Cleveland Browns. Yes, he had 724 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: eleven fantasy points, but he got that last minute, last 725 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: fourth quarter touchdown. I say that the the Arizona Cardinals 726 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: are gonna shut down Steven Jackson their run production all 727 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: right since his return Marcus. Ryan Matthews a little good, 728 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: little bit of bad. How do you feel about this week? 729 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 1: I feel all bad about him this week. Nothing about 730 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: this matchup says good things for Ryan Matthews. It's the 731 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: Chargers going east on the road for an early game 732 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: against the Ravens run defense that has been fantastic. You 733 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: see that no Russian touchdowns allowed in five home games 734 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: this year. Plush, You have Matthews who got banged up 735 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: last week, had to leave the game for a little 736 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: bit with the shoulder issue. I am staying away from 737 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: Ryan Matthew fabs. We go to the new superstar and 738 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: the Denver Bronco backfield C. J. Anderson. But a tough 739 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: matchup against that Chief's defense at Arrowhead. But we also 740 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: saw him have a tough matchup last week against Miami 741 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: and they're good run defense, and he had a very 742 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 1: good game from a fantasy standpoint. It's all about value. 743 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: It's all about it. Who is the running back in 744 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 1: Denver because typically that player will put up great fantasy numbers. 745 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: Ronnie Hillman did. Now C J. Anderson is doing it. 746 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,399 Speaker 1: I love Anderson. I'm starting a weekend and a week 747 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: out as long as he is that featured back for 748 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: the bron Yeah. We mentioned it earlier this week to 749 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: the Broncos were running the heck out of the football 750 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: against Miami. I think sixth straight series they ran on 751 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: first and second down. So absolutely go with the volume. 752 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: I'll take up mark Ingram. You see the numbers, they 753 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: have not been good as a blade, zero touchdowns in 754 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: three straight games. He was gangbusters in his return from injury. 755 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: The difference has been the Saints have been trail and 756 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,399 Speaker 1: they fell behind big against the Bengals. They fell behind 757 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: big against the Baltimore Ravens and that meant a lot 758 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,840 Speaker 1: of passing situations. So more Pere Thomas I suspect against 759 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 1: the Steelers. This is going to be a grinded out, 760 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,280 Speaker 1: ground and pound style game and that's what Sean Payton 761 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 1: does with mark Ingram. He will be a start for 762 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: me an r B two, I would say obviously, if 763 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 1: you have a couple of those studs in your lineup, 764 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: play them over him and maybe he makes your flex. 765 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: But we don't always agree, but I agree with really 766 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 1: without kind of good news. Let's throw it over to 767 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: our man James co who was with a very special guest. Hey, thanks, guys. 768 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 1: All right, I'm super excited obviously because the guy next 769 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: to me here would be Justin Forsett, a fellow cal there. 770 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 1: Justin Forsett, My man, how you doing, I'm doing great? 771 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me.

Okay, there 779 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: you go. Hey, listen, how much fun are you having? Man? 780 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 1: You went crazy against the Saints a hundred eighty yards 781 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. This must you must be having a blast. Man, 782 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 1: It's a blessing. Man, I'm having a lot of fun 783 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,839 Speaker 1: out there. It's good to be playing again. And uh, 784 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: you know I'm not taking for granted. Uh, you're a 785 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: guy that has been overlooked. You're pretty much your entire life, 786 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,439 Speaker 1: Yet every single time you get an opportunity to play, 787 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: you perform. How do you explain your excess your recent success? Man, 788 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: just you know, finally just getting an opportunity to show 789 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: what I can do. I mean, you know a lot 790 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,439 Speaker 1: of times when you're you're five eight hund night pound 791 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 1: running back, you can get overlooking. You know, your staff 792 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 1: are kind of shuns people away. But uh, you know, 793 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: the Ravens accept me, and uh they're giving me an opportunity. 794 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,879 Speaker 1: You worked with Gary Kubiak in in Houston. You're working 795 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: with him again in Baltimore. Can you explain his scheme? 796 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: Why is so successful? Uh? Man, he knows, he knows 797 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,359 Speaker 1: how to utilize to the running back. He knows how 798 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 1: to run the football. We've got a great offensive line here. Uh. 799 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 1: You know, with the zone run scheme, it's important for 800 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: those guys to be able to upfront to uh get 801 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 1: cut down the backside and you know, get those defensive 802 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 1: lines moving or horizontally, and that's what we've been doing, 803 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 1: but having success finding lanes. Look, I look down here. Statistically, 804 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: you're one of the top ten running backs in the league. 805 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,439 Speaker 1: You're averaging over five yards per carry in your six 806 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: year career.

FABS get us started. Jervis Landry. Another 866 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 1: rookie wide receiver in Marcus here, the rookie wide receiver. Here, 867 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 1: the rookie wide receiver. He had two touchdowns last week. 868 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: He's got three touchdowns in his last two games. So 869 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill is looking for him in the red zone. 870 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, Monday Night Football, they play 871 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,919 Speaker 1: the Jets, maybe the worst team in the entire league, 872 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 1: especially against the past, And this guy's available in a 873 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:52,879 Speaker 1: lot of leagues right now, no doubt about it. Bar 874 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,800 Speaker 1: what do we got sleeper wide receiver? Every sleeper begins 875 00:42:55,880 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: with S. Does that make sense? Yeah? I like Walker. 876 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 1: What's welker to me? Is gonna be the sleeper guy 877 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: that no one expects. He got that, you know, that 878 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 1: last minute touchdown there last week, you know, right there 879 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 1: in the goal line area. I think this week he 880 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 1: does that in Kent's City. I mean, this is going 881 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 1: to be a perfect opportunity for west Walker, you know, 882 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 1: to keep the trend going. You know, one touchdown, two touchdown. 883 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,399 Speaker 1: I would go Charles Johnson. He has become the guy 884 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. We all had helped cor Darrel Patterson would 885 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 1: have been the most targeted guys. I know, I mean, 886 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: what's not an insult, but he's the most targeted guy 887 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. So if you want to continue to hold 888 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: onto CP because you burned a fifth round draft pick 889 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,680 Speaker 1: on him, be my guest. But Chuck Johnson has been 890 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 1: the guy who Bridgewater is looking for. So if you 891 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: need a receiver this week, look give us a Sunday 892 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: gem here markets. I am long agone and going with 893 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 1: mal dot com Floyd right now. I don't like much 894 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 1: about the Chargers match. They can't but I don't like 895 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 1: much about this matchup for the Charging But I do 896 00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 1: like the fact that against that Raven secondary, every now 897 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: and then you can hit a big play. And that's 898 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 1: what Malcolm Floyd does. I think he gets down the 899 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:05,920 Speaker 1: field and maybe hits one home runner two for you 900 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 1: from Philip Rivers, I will go James Jones in St. Louis. 901 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 1: Nobody in the National Football League passes the ball more 902 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 1: than the Raiders. We love targets and James Jones seems 903 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,840 Speaker 1: to be Derek Carr's number one target and that always 904 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,759 Speaker 1: elusive red zone, So Jones would be my selection for 905 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,319 Speaker 1: your Every kiss begins with KA Sunday, Jim, gentlemen, Happy 906 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 1: day after Thanksgiving.
