But fabs, it's Press 19 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 1: Cancer Awareness Month here at the NFL. We're remembering one 20 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: of our own. Yeah, we're doing the show with heavy 21 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: hearts this entire month remembering Natalie Packer, who is one 22 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: of our own, who lost her battle with breast cancer 23 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: earlier this month. Natalie, we miss you all right. Natalie's 24 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: aunt and uncle did a phenomenal thing raising enough money 25 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: to donate an ambulance, and they said, every time this 26 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: ambulance goes to save somebody will be because Natalie was born. 27 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: Great things hopefully coming out of this as well. Very 28 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: sad story, but as Natalie would want us to do, 29 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: we move on. At NFL. We talked about her in 30 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: the game last night a lot. If you watch the 31 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: game between the Bills and the Brown I can get 32 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: you caught up on all the highlights you may have 33 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: missed a night ago. Ej Manuel Brian Hoyer. Very intriguing 34 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:36,479 Speaker 1: quarterback matchup. First quarter, Bill's opening possession. It's Fred Jackson 35 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: going in for the one yeard touchdown. Suddenly Fred Jackson's 36 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: fantasy value going away. He is the goal line back 37 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 1: for Buffalo. Now I have him on my team. I didn't. 38 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: I didn't gonna mention about tunnel time the ensuing Brown's possession. 39 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: It's Howyer scrambling for a first down. He's had a 40 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: terrific starters NFL season. Unfortunately, this will be the final 41 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: play his total thirteen year. He is on the ground 42 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: an awkward tackle, a torn a c L. He's done 43 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: for the season. Brandon Weedon would come in and play 44 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: for the Browns. He would play pretty well. Here he 45 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: is handing the ball to Willis mcgahey, who had forty 46 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: five carries last night. After forty five yards, he averaged 47 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: two point seven yards per carry, which is awful, but 48 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: he scored thirteen fantasy points. That will take it. Less 49 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: than two minutes later, Brown's punt returner Travis Benjamin. Now 50 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: this kid touchdown. How about that Cleveland Browns defensive special 51 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: teams last night? Well, you talk about raw speed, I 52 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: mean that that that gave me some points right quick 53 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 1: on the defense. There you go, six fantasy points. He 54 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: played the Browns defense Bills. Now, first possession of the 55 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: second half, it's C. J. Spiller on my bench, on 56 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: your bench, here, he goes. I'm screaming to put I've 57 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: told you, but I mean that's his production on that's 58 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: fantasy points. That's all you care about a lot more 59 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: on Spiller in a second. Later in the third quarter, 60 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: Bills driving. Here's ej Manuel Now scrambling for a first down, 61 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: but he gets injured on the play MS knee. It's 62 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: a sprained Elsie's gonna miss a few weeks. Totunately, Bills 63 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: didn't like what some of the Browns players were saying 64 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 1: after he went down. So Jeff Toole comes in the 65 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: smart play handing off to Fred Jackson. You're like me. 66 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: You play Fred Jackson two because of Adrian Peterson being out, 67 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: you're good. And here's Josh Gordon thirty seven yards, catch it, 68 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: catch it, so Town. No matter who's throwing in the football, 69 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: he he performs. Fact, if you drafted Josh Gordon, you 70 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: are smiling right about now. For Brown's lead by six, 71 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: Jeff Toole I t J. Ward. He goes forty four 72 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: yards for the touchdown. Thirty seven twenty four. Browns is 73 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: your final Brown's defense. Fans, Browns Deep. We talked about them. 74 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: They're up and coming. Yeah, they were a top ten 75 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: defense going into weeks week five because of this matchup, 76 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: because of the quarterback that where they were facing. Here 77 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: are your Brown's fantasy performances from Week five Browns defense 78 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: with eighteen Josh Gordon performing well, Willis mcgahey's got to 79 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: go back in your lineup, and even Brandon Wheeden came 80 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: off the bench, not a lot of prep time, still 81 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: had a nice night. Jordan Cameron had a down night. 82 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: Love more on him in a second. But Gordon's a 83 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: guy fabs obviously no matter who throws him the football. 84 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: He had a big breakout type year last year with 85 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: Brandon Weed, and he was good with Brian Hoyer. He's 86 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: still good with Brandon Weed now again, so keep him 87 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: your lineup. He is seeing a ton of targets and 88 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: that stat line could have been even better, Jason, if 89 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: you remember on that first drive Hoyer hit him in 90 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: stride and he dropped the football. Could have been an 91 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: ad R touchdown. Even still a very nice night with 92 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: over fourteen Fantasy points. So where's Willis mcgahey for you now? 93 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: Because obviously you have to start gettinghim in your line up. 94 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: He's the only guy carrying the football. Twenty six carries 95 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: out bar, I mean, that's huge, and he's available in 96 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: a lot of leagues. Yeah, yeah, twenty six carries. But 97 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: even if he doesn't get twenty six years, you know, 98 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: because of his size right now, he's about two D 99 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: two or forty pounds. They're gonna give him the ball 100 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: down there near in the red zone in the goal 101 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: line touches. So Willis mcgahey's starting to slowly come along 102 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: there alright. Bad game for Jordan Cameron, who's the number 103 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: two fantasy tight end. Concerned for Jordan Camera, y, can't 104 00:04:58,320 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: you just throw this one away? Now? You throw this 105 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: one a way? This is gonna happen the game plan 106 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: against Jordan Cameron. They weren't able to get the ball 107 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,799 Speaker 1: to him. He was looking at a lot of double 108 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: coverage as well. So I think this is one that 109 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: you just gotta say, Jordan Cameron still my guy, all right, 110 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, you can no longer say c J. Spiller 111 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: is a hundred percent your guy, but at least he's 112 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: still in the mix. Fred Jackson was the big night 113 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: with over twenty one fantasy points, Spiller with twelve. Dan Carpenter, 114 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: who is a kicker, now that's getting a lot of opportunities. 115 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: You can want to pick him up if your kicker 116 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: is underperforming, but fabs Fred Jackson. Suddenly we know Dug 117 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 1: Maron likes the two back system. He brought the same 118 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: system from Syracuse with the same offensive coordinator. Now, Fred 119 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: Jackson's value where's it at? And we pooh poohed him 120 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: because we heard all about c. J. Spiller being a 121 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: featured back carrying the ball until he throws up. But 122 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: Fred Jackson has been the better back so far. And 123 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 1: dare I say, if you have a handcuff with Fred 124 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: Jackson and c. J. Spiller on your team, you may 125 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: be starting Jackson over Spiller at this point the next 126 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: time the Bills played, Now, let me give you good 127 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 1: news or let'll spin it forward for you. If you 128 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: didn't play c. J. Spiller last night. Number one, there 129 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: was nothing to suggest that Spiller was going to have 130 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: a breakout game. He was injured all the way till 131 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: the game time. They were hoping he could go. He 132 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: only had a couple of carries before he broke out 133 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: with that one long touchdown run. So there's nothing that say, boy, 134 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: if I could go back in time and do it, 135 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: because fact, there was nothing there to say, Yeah, you 136 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: could play with confidence again. He had that one big run. 137 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 1: If you if you leave that run off of his statuet, 138 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: Fantasy owners are just up in arms today, Yeah, he's 139 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: really a number two running back or even at this 140 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: point of flex seeing what Fred jackson situation is with 141 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Now as far as Robert Woods goes, 142 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: now with e j Manuel Lott, Jeff Tools throwing the 143 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: football lock bar, he was coming on, can you still 144 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: trust to play Robert Woods? You know what that that 145 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: really does affect Robert Woods in his production because Jeff Tool, 146 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: we don't know what his makeup is. I saw him 147 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: in college when he's at Washington State, you know, not 148 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: all that impressive at Washington State. Now with the Buffalo Bills, 149 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: how much are they going to be able to put 150 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: into him? Where is he gonna be? Is he gonna 151 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: be looking for that number one guy to beat Robert Woods? 152 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: Or is he just gonna say, hey, look I'm gonna 153 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: go into checkdown Charlie. And who's gonna be there checkdown 154 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: Charlie Guy? Well, Stevie Johnson got hurt last night, So 155 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: we don't know the severity of that at and you 156 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: know me with the USC wide receivers, certainly, but but 157 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: Jeff Toole looked bad last night. He looked so Robert 158 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: Woods value a little bit stagnant for me right now 159 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: said there there is your Thursday Night Football recap. Don't 160 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: forget Sunday Night, a special edition of Thursday Night Football. 161 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers looks to continue his resurgence as he leads 162 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: the Chargers into the black Hole to take on Terrell 163 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: Prior and the Raiders.

Running Back Stephen 171 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: Ridley missed a third consecutive practice on Friday. With Me 172 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: and Bye injuries and with the Patriots Stephen Ridley not 173 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: being able to practice this week and not being a 174 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: very effective overall back up la Garrett Blunt looks pretty good. 175 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: Looks like a solid option for Week five? Do you 176 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: start him? I think you startling Garrett Blunt. I mean 177 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: you you look at the running back waiver wire, it's 178 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: a pretty baring waste land. At this point, Stephen really 179 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: hasn't seen the end zone except to run on and 180 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: off the field before and after games. That's about it. 181 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: But Garrett Blunt is a guy getting most of the 182 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: carries for the New England Patriot. If you have a 183 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: running back on by this weekend, there's a lot of them, 184 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: but maybe the guy you go pick up very steaky 185 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: flex playing the injury news for CULTU running back in 186 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: my Bradshaw doesn't seem too promising. Anytime you're dealing with 187 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: head or neck injuries, timetables can become uncertain. With that. 188 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,839 Speaker 1: The Colt's acquisition of Trent Richardson a few weeks ago 189 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: looks pretty good. And now what do you do here 190 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: with the Mont Bradshaw. Well, I think at this point 191 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: you've got to let go of a mod Bradshaw. You 192 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: you gotta use that space to pick up somebody else, 193 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: find some help off the waiver wire, maybe a guy 194 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: like la Garrett Blunt that we mentioned. But Trent Richardson 195 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: is going to become the guy. He was gonna get 196 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: phased in any way, this just makes that a little 197 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: bit faster. I think you say goodbye to a mob 198 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: Brandshaw as we saw le Garrett Blunt owned in less 199 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: than ten percent of NFL dot Com. League's another guy 200 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: to potentially take a flyer on this weekend if you're 201 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: banged up at the running back position, or if you're 202 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: just hurting because of the bi weeks. It's Rashad Jennings. 203 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: Now it's not looking good for oft injured running back 204 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 1: Darren McFadden, who is officially doubtful for Sunday night's game, 205 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: which you can see here on NFLM Network. What do 206 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: you do with him? Do you play him on Sunday Night? 207 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: I'm very nervous about playing Rashad Jennings. In the past 208 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: when he has been the guy, he hasn't performed very well. 209 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: I know there aren't a lot of running back options 210 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: out there, but I feel like there's has to be 211 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 1: something better than Rashad Jennings. Maybe you pick him up, 212 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: but you gotta really be hurting to play him. Not 213 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: a lot not a lot better. There's wide receiver Brandon 214 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: Marshall hasn't practiced a majority of the week with a 215 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: foot injury. But all signs point to the Pro Bowl 216 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: receiver lacing them up on Sunday. Any concerns over Marshall 217 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: this weekend facing that revamped Rob Ryan Saints d there 218 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 1: is concerned, but you're also starting Brandon Marshall. I've got 219 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall the league. I am concerned about him. He 220 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: hasn't been playing particularly well the last couple of weeks. 221 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 1: He's been injured. I know they're looking his way a lot, 222 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: but all Sean Jeffrey is starting to get a little 223 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: more attention in that offense. And you do worry about 224 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 1: that Saints defense. They're not the pushovers they were last year. 225 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: Rob Bryan's got them playing very well. He's got Jimmy 226 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: macarro in that secondary. He's doing good things. You worry 227 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: about Brandon Marshall, but to play Brandon Marshall. Let's take 228 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 1: a look at some more injuries here. Jamal Charles blisters 229 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: on his feet. It's because he's been scoring. Somebody fantasiest 230 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: for me. He's hot. You see Darren mcveatt, as we said, 231 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: he's officially doubtful that You see the Patriots there, Danny 232 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: m and Dolis on this list, each and every week, 233 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 1: Miles Austin. Another guy who continually shows up on this 234 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: league is that Terence Williams time in Dallas. Yet I 235 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 1: don't think it's quite Terence Williams Stein's I think Jason 236 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: Witten starts to get a few more looks. Des Bryant 237 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: obviously is the man in that passing game. You may 238 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: see more DeMarco Murray out of that back to you 239 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: if you see Vernon Davis, Rob Gronkowski. The tight end 240 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 1: position is pretty right. But we were talking a majority 241 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: of the time here about running backs. David Wilson. Here's 242 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: a guy that a lot of people drafted in the 243 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 1: second round, third round at the latest great matchup this 244 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: week against the Eagles. What are we doing with him? 245 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: I think you're playing David Wilson this week. If there's 246 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: ever a week to start him, this is the one. 247 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: I guess that If he doesn't do it now, I 248 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: don't know when he does it. On top of that, 249 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 1: you've got a Giants team that's owing four. They're not 250 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: doing much of anything on offense. I know they got 251 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: Brandon Jacob's back and he may see some carries, but 252 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: he is not going to be the future of this offense. 253 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: He's kind of a stopgap measure. If you are Tom Coughlin. 254 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: At some point you gotta trust your young running back. 255 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:33,719 Speaker 1: I think he put David Wilson, and I think he 256 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: gives him the football, and I think this is a 257 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: week fantasy owners can trust him real quick. What about 258 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: Eli Man? I think you're starting Elie Man in this 259 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: week as well. Same with the matchup. If he can't 260 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: get it done against the Philadelphia Eagles, when is the 261 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,559 Speaker 1: lie Man ain't gonna get it done? This is the 262 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: week you play it. He's never gonna do it. If 263 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: he can't do it again, he's got out at some point. 264 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: Rights to past you alright. When NFL Fantasy Live returned, 265 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: we're running through Sunday's matchups and breaking down that one 266 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: game that's guaranteed to put up a plethora of Fantasy points. 267 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: End of later, the two thousand three NFL Offensive Player 268 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: of the Year in Long Time Fantasy's Doune jamal Lewis, 269 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: he stops by the talk shop and discussing the decline 270 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 1: of the running back is fact for fiction. We're back 271 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: right after this. Welcome back to the NFL Fantasy Live. 272 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: Here's your early slate of games. Some interesting defensive matchups. 273 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 1: Seahawks and the Colts. You got Andrew Luck going up 274 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 1: against that Seahawks defense. Chiefs and the Titans. Of all 275 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: the good stuff you said about the Chiefs defense, that 276 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: goes double for the Titans, especially coming off that big 277 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 1: game against the Jets last week late games, don't forget 278 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: Chargers Raiders eleven thirty five hinnies and you can see 279 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: that game right here on NFL Network. Then Monday Night, 280 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: Falcons and the Jets. Empty your bench of Falcons, play 281 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: Steve Barkowski if you have him on your fantasy team. 282 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: Now we're gonna take a look at our fantasy matchup 283 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: of the weekend. To no one's surprise, the Lions and 284 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: the Packers at the top of that list, and we're 285 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 1: gonna match up the quarterbacks and rank. Look Aaron Rodgers. 286 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, so he has the advantage, but Matthew Stafford 287 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: has been having a great season. I will tell you 288 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: to start Matthew Stafford this week. He's got a great matchup. 289 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people intended twelve team 290 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: leagues drafted Matthew Stafford is possibly their backup quarterback. That's 291 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: why I'm imploring you now make sure he's in your 292 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: starting line up. The Packers of getting up a lot 293 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: of fantasy points to quarterbacks. This here he threw. Nobody 294 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 1: throws the ball more than Matthew Stafford. The last two season, 295 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: he has led the league in that category. Make sure 296 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: he's in your lineup. So many people questions about running backs. 297 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: Can you start a Packers running back? Yes, you can 298 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: start Eddie Lacey and start him with confidence. He's been 299 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: back at practice this week. James Starks has banged up. 300 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: This is Eddie Lacey's job, Marcus, and this is why 301 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: they drafted him. He was on the road to being 302 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: that breakout game. This could be that breakout game form 303 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: Start him at least get him in your flex. Yeah. Absolutely, 304 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: this is the time you want to get Eddie Lazy there. 305 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: This is the reason that Green Bay Packers drafted the guy. 306 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: I will say this though, Jonathan Franklin ran very well 307 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: when Lacey was out. He's not a guy you're gonna play, 308 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: but maybe a guy you pick up and stash as 309 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: a handcuff if something happens to Lacey in the future. 310 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: All Right, we all know about Calvin Johnson, akbar, the 311 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: big question will his touchdown Street continued. You see his 312 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: eye run right here. Absolutely, Calvin Johnson will continue to 313 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: keep this streak alive. And that's because he's going up 314 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: against Tremont Williams and Sam Shildon. This is a mismatch. 315 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: I mean when you look at his frame, the way 316 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,439 Speaker 1: he plays the game, he's gonna go up there. And 317 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: not to mention this Packers defense is ranked twenty eight 318 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: in passing defense. So I think this is they're gonna 319 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: struggle keeping up with Calvin Johnson. All right, full disclosure, 320 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: hot bars eyebrowned, absolutely nothing. Here's your Packers what nineties 321 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: or your two thousand thirteen wide receiver stats. Randall Cobb 322 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: has been who you thought he was going to be. 323 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: So is Jordy Nelson if you drafted him, he has 324 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: come through. And here's James Jones. Marcus, you talked all 325 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: about in preseason. You weren't a big fan of James Jones. 326 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: He's had that one big game. Can you trust him 327 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: this way? You've been interested to ask me about Jamie Jones. 328 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: I said before the season to beware the magical season. 329 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: I know Michael Fabiano likes to say it as well. 330 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: He had fourteen touchdowns last year. I said he wouldn't 331 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: approach that so far, I'm sticking to it. Just one 332 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: touchdown catch this year. But you're probably playing him just 333 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: because the Packers wide receivers. Those guys can go off 334 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: at any time, and you don't want to have James 335 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: Jones have that big game and he's sitting there on 336 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: your bench. You're playing him in the flex option and 337 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: you're hoping for the best fantasy projection for this week 338 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: powered by E. A. Madden Big Days from Stafford Aaron Rodgers, 339 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: and there you go. Rank Reggie Bush nineteen fantasy points projected. 340 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: He's been playing like a first round draft pick this year. Absolutely, 341 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: can we canceled the nonsense that Reggie Bush is not 342 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: good as a running back. He's averaged over five yards 343 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: per carry this season. This guy can run between the tackles, 344 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: he can catch them all. He could do so many 345 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: good things. And if there's somebody in your league who's 346 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: in this cell high mode on Reggie Bush, take him 347 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: to the cleaners. And Reggie Bush even said it took 348 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: him five years to realize what defenses like to do. 349 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: Now he's playing as good as he can. Lions and 350 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: Packers maybe our fantasy matchup of the week. But don't 351 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: forget there's no shortage of big games going on this 352 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: weekend as well.

Now, here's 357 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: our own NFL fantasy pick hims for Week five. Akbar 358 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: Chiefs and the Titans could be a big defensive struggle. 359 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: Give me the final score, and the players you're watching 360 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: fantasy was well, I'm going Kansas City Chiefs, the a 361 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: f C powerhouse right now five and oh they win 362 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: twenty one to four team. And then one guy I'm 363 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: looking at is Donnie Avery. I believe Andy Reid is 364 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: gonna continue to get the ball to Donnie Avery. And 365 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: that's because when you look at what kind of routes 366 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: is he running, He's running a lot of those drive routes. 367 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: And that's right behind the defensive lineman, right in front 368 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: of the linebackers. And when Greg Williams sends a lot 369 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: of that pressure towards Alex Smith. Alex Smith has gotta 370 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: get rid of that ball. He's gonna be looking for 371 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: Donnie Avery on the other side of the ball. I'm 372 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: looking at Chris Johnson. Chris Johnson has struggled in trying 373 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: to get the ball going and getting it downfield. And 374 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: that's because he hasn't found that trust yet with his 375 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: new interior guys. And you know, when you're running back, 376 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: you have to be able to understand how your your 377 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: your interior blockers are blocking. He hasn't got that yet, 378 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: not in the group. Be weary of Chris Johnson. All Right, 379 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: Seahawks and the Colts another big one this week. Andrew 380 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: Luck playing against the legion of Boom. How are things 381 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: gonna go on Sunday when he looks over there and 382 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: sees all those great players on defense. Okay, you know 383 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: our receivers know now what what are going up against. 384 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: And well, you know, I've got all the faith in 385 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: the world and them, and they know they're you know, 386 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: they'll they'll run great routes. You know, Reggie Wayne's gotten 387 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 1: opened for years, He'll he'll get open. You know, t 388 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: Wi is gonna get open d HP is gonna get open. 389 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: Fleaner will get open. There's a reason why Andy Luck 390 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: has a smile on his face because he knows he's kidding. 391 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: These guys aren't getting open against the Seahawks. Deepen, I mean, 392 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 1: what is he supposed to say, like dumb, we're doom. 393 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: None of my guys are gonna get opens getting open. 394 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: Nobody is getting open. I know a lot of you 395 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: have been excited about Andy Luck's production this season, and 396 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: why shouldn't you be. However, it is not gonna come 397 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 1: against the Seattle Seahawks. They win ugly on the road. 398 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot of guys at quarterback. I'd start over 399 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: and my start Matthew Stafford over him, and I would 400 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: start a young man named Russell Wilson over him. I 401 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: understand Russell Wilson excelled as a real quarterback, not so 402 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: much for your fantasy team, but realize he's gonna start 403 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: turning it on this week. I understand. Look it don't 404 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: give me the stats. I know the Colts defense is good. 405 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: Well look what Terrell Prior did against them in Week one, 406 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: Russ so Wilson can do the same. Make sure he's 407 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 1: in your light up alright by the bell alright, getting 408 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: in late him each and on NFL Network Chargers in 409 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders, Marcus, who wins? Who are you keep 410 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: an eye on? While I'm going with the Chargers in 411 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: this one twenty one. I know you're looking for a 412 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: reason to stay up late because you're having breaking bad withdrawals. 413 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: This is your reason to stay up late and watch 414 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: the NFL network. And the guy that I'm keeping an 415 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: eye on, Danny Woodhead. Wood Head, Yo, look at that 416 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: Charger wide receiver, such tandem, that wide receiver group. The 417 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 1: guy's actually meeting and receiving are the Titan Antonio Gates 418 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: and the Danny Woodhead is right behind him. He's a 419 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 1: dual threat back. He can do a whole lot and 420 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: with Philip Rivers has been rejuvenated. Speaking of quarterbacks, Prior 421 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: is the guy you're looking at for the Oakland Raiders. 422 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: Matt Flynn showed us last week that not everybody can 423 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: take advantage of that Redskins defense. We have a lesson 424 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: that we appreciate that Torrell Priors back in the lineup. 425 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: That is good news for the Oakland Raiders and Chargers 426 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: have been bad against quarterbacks. So far this season. So 427 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: if you've got a guy on a BI maybe an 428 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: r G three or something prior the guy you want 429 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: to plug into that line up, all right, I'm gonna 430 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: go watch that game with Uncle Jack's because he's got 431 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: the massage. Chap. Just gotta push that one guy off 432 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: and I can sit and watch the game still to come. 433 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: On NFL Fantasy Live. Both Rank and Akbar are undefeated 434 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 1: in our NFL dot Com Experts Fantasy League, and they 435 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: square off in Week five. We're breaking down the Giant showdown. Next. 436 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: All I see is a C J. Spillet points on 437 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: my bench. Bill's Brown stairs in that football e J 438 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 1: Manual Brian Hoyer, neither would finish the game. Boyer done 439 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: for the year or the torn a c L L 440 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: c L Spraine for manual first quarter Bills opening possession, 441 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: it's Fred Jackson for the one yard touchdown run FABS. 442 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: We said, start Fred Jackson. And one thing we're noticing 443 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: is that he's the preferred goal line back for Doug 444 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: Moron second quarter, Brown's third and goal. It's Willis mcgahey. 445 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: You gotta start getting him in your watch down. I 446 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: had mcgahey in my lineup. And twenty six carries. Didn't 447 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,479 Speaker 1: average a very good yards per carry, but he produced 448 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: in fantasy land. I think he had four cat and 449 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: more carries than yards. Here's the play that I'm sitting 450 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,360 Speaker 1: in my sleep, fab C J. Spiller all the way, 451 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: all his fantasy production on this one run, sitting on 452 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,479 Speaker 1: a seventy five percent of his fantasy points last night 453 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: came on that ground. The third quarter, Browns trailing by seven, 454 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 1: it's Brandon Weason finding Josh Gordon for the thirty seven 455 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: yard touchdown. Josh Gordon is still a weapon FABS, and 456 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: even without Yer, if you drafted Josh Gordon right now, 457 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: you are smiling all the way to the fantasy bank. 458 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 1: Browns winning thirty seven twenty four. Brandon Weeding a nice 459 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: game in relief of Warriors. So you look at the 460 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: fantasy points. Josh Gordon still gave you a pretty nice night. 461 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: Willis mcgahey gave you a better night than expected, as 462 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 1: did C. J. Spiller. Fred Jackson. It looks like both 463 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: of these guys are going to be involved going forward, 464 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: So Fred Jackson a better play As time goes on. 465 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: Our NFL dot Com Experts League has a huge matchup 466 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: this week, pair of undefeated heavyweights go at at with 467 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: four no Adam rank taking on four and no Ak 468 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: bar Baja Biamila. More on that matchup. Let's send it 469 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: over to Marcus and the guys. Thank you, Jason Abo. 470 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: I think Adam is down about cruiser weight at this point. 471 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 1: There's a lot of trash talking this week in our 472 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: NFL dot Com Experts League. Two men into the ring undefeated, 473 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: only one man leaves five and oh as we have 474 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: the champion him ranking out president against the challenger and 475 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: cou detad gentleman. Any final words before we break this 476 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: new more going down. I'm gonna take your championship bill 477 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: to prove that I'm great. I'm gonna beat you by eight. 478 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: Are you through? Yes? A lot of people have stepped 479 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 1: to me with that rhetoric, and all of them have 480 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: left the same way defeated. All right, I think that's 481 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: good enough. Let's get started. Let's check this out the 482 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 1: starting lineups. Look at his team team teams. We will 483 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: start at the quarterback position. Tony Romo against Michael Vick. 484 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:32,880 Speaker 1: Romo is a guy that a lot of us liked 485 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: coming into the season, especially the number two. He may 486 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: have elevated himself to a low number one. I'm looking 487 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: at this and to go with Michael Vick. Nice look 488 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: at this. I mean, you look at this thing and Romo. 489 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: I think it's a good option. But the way that 490 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: Giants defense has played this year, it's hard to go 491 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: against Michael Vick. Great matchup for Michael Vick, and he's 492 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 1: actually ranked fourth among fantasy quarterbacks and points scored. And 493 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: kudos to Akbar for drafting him. He was very excited 494 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: about him when the season started, and he's been paid off. Yeah, 495 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: And and I think it also speaks to to speak 496 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 1: to sticking with the guys that you know, the guys 497 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: that you like. Did you see guys performing out on 498 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: the field, stick with him, don't be afraid to to 499 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: do something that's unnatural, like me playing Michael Vick over 500 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: Cam Newton. Cam Newton sitting on my bench hasn't seen 501 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: daylight yet. And we will move on to the running 502 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 1: back spot, Jamal Charles against Reggie Bush. Charles the guys 503 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: who's had a fantastic year, but then again, so has Reggie. 504 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: Looking at the matchups here, Sir Reginald Alfred Bush the 505 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 1: second's gonna be against me. You know, I love Jamal 506 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: Charles in most weeks, but that match up against the 507 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: Titans makes me a little nervous. That is a tough 508 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: matchup that Typans defenses go joke, especially at home. They 509 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: really clamp down on running backs. They slow down offenses. 510 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: I don't look for a lot of yardage for the 511 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: Chiefs in general in that game. So Reggie Bush is 512 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: an excellent player. Yeah, And it says versatility that mary 513 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: that's married with this offense. That really makes Reggie Bush 514 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: the it guy in fantasy right now when you talk 515 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: about supreme running backs. He can catch out of the backfield, 516 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: he can run the ball. Now he's showing that you 517 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 1: can run in between the tackles. I like Reggie Bush 518 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: as long as he stay his health, and he's turning 519 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 1: out to be a steel for fantasy owners. Moving onto 520 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: the wide receivers spot, looking at it, Eric Decker against 521 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: an Quon Bold and give it to me this bolt 522 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: of the San Francisco forty nine And come on, what 523 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: you how do you go against a Broncos wide receiver 524 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: at this point in the season. You just can't write, 525 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: be serious. He clearly has the advantage here. Ever since 526 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: that first week when everybody wanted to push the panic 527 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: button on Eric Decker after he dropped his one touchdown pass. 528 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: He's really turned it on and been a very reliable receiver. 529 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: So Eric Decker's rewarded me. I've been hurt with injuries 530 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: with Larry Fitzgerald, with Roddy White. Eric Decker has filled 531 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: in admirable. Okay, you know what, let me put my 532 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: pride aside. I know Bolden is going up against the 533 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: Houston Texas, but yes, you're right when you look at 534 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: Eric Decker in this offense, there's nobody that manages talent 535 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: better than Peyton Manning. He's done it before, who was 536 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: in Indianapolis. So I know he can do it again 537 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: with this great group of white receivers that he has. 538 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,959 Speaker 1: All Right, we will wrap up in this breakdown by 539 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: looking at the flex positions. Larry Fitzgerald against West Welcome. 540 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: Better not contradict yourself because you just said any of 541 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: the you better not. I'm telling you what I said. 542 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: You gotta go with the Broncos receiver. So West Welker 543 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: gets the nod here. I mean, I just I said, 544 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 1: you can't go against the Bronco receiver for all five 545 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: nine of them. Is really good, especially when he's playing 546 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: against space. I mean, nobody looks inside of a zone 547 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: defense and knows the white spot to sit in west Walker. 548 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: I think that's what gives him the upper edge on 549 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: the other receivers because Peyton Manning trust him when he's 550 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: sitting there at that slot position and scoring touchdown passes 551 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,719 Speaker 1: was not really a part of west Walker's game when 552 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: he was in New England. He was between the twenties 553 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: type of guy. But in Denver he's now had six 554 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 1: touchdown receptions so far on this very young season. He's 555 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: up for a monster year. Yeah, it's a great I 556 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: look at that. I look at Fitzgerald and I look 557 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: at that matchup and I don't like it. I'm gonna go. 558 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,360 Speaker 1: I might go to the Garrett Blunt because I feel 559 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: the ceiling with Fitzgerald is about twelve points. The Garrett 560 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 1: Blunt could actually get a couple of touchdowns. This week, 561 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: we'll take a look at the entire match up. A 562 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 1: couple of guys have already gone Georgian Cameron not so 563 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 1: eight for Jackson. The huge night. I would have said 564 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: before Thursday, maybe Adam Rank had the advantage here, but 565 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: with the way things have gone on Thursday night, there 566 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: could be an overthrow of the Fantasy government. I meant 567 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 1: sometime and this week, one week, Freddie Jackson stepped up 568 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: big time for me in the absence of Adrian Peters say. 569 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: That was huge one point for him. And so this 570 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: is why welcome, This is why we played fred Jackson. 571 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: You tell me the ship. That's how it works. Remember 572 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: you can follow along and track the big matchup on 573 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 1: Sunday by going to NFL dot com Slash Experts League. 574 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: When we return Fantasy Royalty in the house, super Bowl 575 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: thirty five champion Jamal Lewis stops by to put his 576 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: mark on NFL Fantasy Live stick around back. After this, 577 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: he has gone over two thousand yards. He now has 578 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: two thousand yards on the season. Now he's run before 579 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: the two thousand yall. He's running back in Mortality, one 580 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: of the more exclusive clubs in all of sports. The 581 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: two thousand rushing yards in the single NFL season club. 582 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: You see Jamal Lewis's name right there with two thousand 583 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: and sixty six yards and two thousand and three. He 584 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: joins us now in NFL Fantasy Live, Jamal welcome. Thanks, 585 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: thanks for having me. You know, we're just talking about 586 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 1: your big two nine five yard record setting game a 587 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: couple of seconds ago off camera, and you said that 588 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: game should have been three forty. Oh yeah, it should 589 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 1: have been three forty, but we had had a late 590 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: penalty that had nothing to do with the play that 591 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: actually bought forty yards back. So it should have been 592 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: over over and probably would have took me over Eric 593 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: Dixon as will well. And confidently I can say that 594 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 1: if you started Jamal Lewis that week, you probably won 595 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: in your fantasy league. Yeah, it was, it was. It 596 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 1: was a good week like Peyton week won it on 597 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: to this year. It wasn't too long ago you played 598 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: and people relied on their running backs three hundred carries 599 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: again a year now, we've seen that so devolved over 600 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,159 Speaker 1: the last of years. Is that error ever gonna come back? Um? 601 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: I really don't think it's gonna come back. This league 602 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 1: has really changed. It went more to a passing league. 603 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: I think the last draft that we just had really 604 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: proved that to us with a running back not going 605 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: in the first round. But if you look at the 606 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: days and I came out, you had Fred Taylor you 607 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: had Eddie George, you had guys like that Corey Dillon. 608 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: That was the work course back, the feature back, and 609 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: right now you don't really have that anymore. You know, 610 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: I'm just having memories of of all those backs that 611 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: you name, because back when you were in your salad days, 612 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it was so much easier to draft the 613 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: fantasy team because you knew Jamal was gonna see three 614 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: carriers and Eddie was gonna do you see three hund carries? 615 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: Nowadays you have to worry about the committee. And I 616 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: also wonder as a running back, was it hard for 617 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: you to get into a groove if you were splaying 618 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: carriers with another player? Oh yeah, most definitely that that 619 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 1: kind of happened more later on in my career, it happened. 620 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: But at the same time, you know, I was used 621 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: to get into ball twenty five thirty times the game 622 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: first half. I was used to kind of setting things 623 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: up and then the second half going out there and 624 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: basically having it all down and being able to run 625 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: run for those yards and run around people. But nowadays 626 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: you really can't do that. You really have to go 627 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: out get what you can get done in fifteen carries 628 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: because it's going to be split. I feel so nostalgic 629 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: man coming about those days. We'll take a look at 630 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: the status. You want to see how it's been going 631 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: down running backs with three D plus carries year by year. 632 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 1: It is a stark downward trend. Just as recent as 633 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: two thousand and six you had ten. Now or see 634 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: someone between four and five. Where are two thousand and 635 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: twelve right now? The number could go down even more 636 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: this year considering all the committees. He guys like C. J. 637 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: Spiller on one. But it's not all doom and gloom. 638 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: Jamal's got some big guys. You think around the rise 639 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 1: this season and you like no Sean Marino, are really 640 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: like no schan Marino? Why I like No Shan Marino 641 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,479 Speaker 1: because I played with a quarterback like Peyton Manning. Uh 642 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: played with him at Tennessee. He's going to open up 643 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: the gaps for you. He's gonna leave six million in 644 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: the box so you can go in there. As a 645 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: good running back, you should be able to know what 646 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: you have to do, know your job, know your blocking assignments, 647 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: and make that thing a little bit more easier for 648 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: you to get and churned up those yards. And I 649 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: think what people out there who play fantasy just casually 650 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: done under then it's how good he is as pass protector. 651 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: And you know that if you're a good pass protector 652 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: at a running back position, they keep you on the field. 653 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: Barn Oh, yeah, you're gonna stay in the game. You're 654 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: gonna stay in the game. I was one of those 655 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: guys where I wasn't that great of a pass protect 656 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: so I would probably come out on third downs. But 657 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: being able to be in there with Payton, you're gonna 658 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: have to be able to protect him, and I think 659 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: that does keep you on the field longer to get 660 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: some of those third down runs though, those draws and 661 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 1: things of that nature. Now you're big on Darren Sproles 662 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: as well, coming off a big week last week. We'll 663 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: think about it with Spros, he's playing on the Drew Brees. 664 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: Drew Brees is probably areguing with the second second best 665 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: quarterback in the league right now, thirty six yards behind 666 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: behind Payton Manning, and Uh. I think he's gonna be 667 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: able to be spread out. He's gonna catch passes out 668 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: and the open they're gonna be able to motion him 669 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: out in the slot. He's gonna be able to take 670 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: handoffs as well. And I think he's going to also 671 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: get that six seven man box that a guy like him, 672 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: small as he is, he can really get in there 673 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: and rip it up and really get those points. And 674 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: he showed you what he could do last week. He 675 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: just had an enormous game against the Miami Dolphins. So 676 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: Darren sposed, especially in the PPR league where you get 677 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: points for catches, He's gold guys like Ingram Pierre Thomas. 678 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: Less of the running game in your thoughts, more opportunities there, 679 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: and Doug Martin has been crushing a lot of fantasy 680 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: on her so far. Everybody drafted him really highs at 681 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: a tough start to the season, but you see good 682 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: things that happen. I see some good things ahead with him, 683 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: mainly because of the fact that the quarterback situation with 684 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: Mike Glenn and there. I think that he can really 685 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: get out there and really take advantage of not having 686 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: a quarterback the same way that Adrian Peterson did last 687 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: year in uh in h with ponder uh. The reason 688 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: why I think Adrian Peters was able to go with 689 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: two thousand yards is because he got a chance to 690 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: get those extra curries. So if Doug Martin can really 691 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: take advantage of that, I think with Ernest Barden as 692 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: a coach quietly helping me go for two thousand yards 693 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: and Chris Johnson to go for two thousand yards in Tennessee, 694 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: I think that he can really go out there in 695 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: turn up those yards. And the first thing that fantished 696 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: on It's probably think is that defensives are not gonna 697 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: stack the box against Doug Martin. Is that gonna happen? Well, 698 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: I think they will a little bit. But at the 699 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: same time, Hey, he's a big back. He can really 700 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: churn it up. He showed that last year that he 701 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: can really hit the hold, get him the ball and 702 00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,959 Speaker 1: get him going. Let him touch the ball twenty five 703 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: thirty times a game and then you can see what 704 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: it happened. I know, you guys on your board, you 705 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: are a couple of guys you recommend here. In addition 706 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: to suppose you got Reggie Bush on there, who has 707 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: been playing like a first round pick. But here's Ryan Matthews, 708 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: who has forever been a disappointment. Yeah, Ryan Matthews. He's 709 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: a big bag, but big bags usually sometimes they kind 710 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 1: of can be a little fragile, but at the same time, 711 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: he's a two under twenty five two and thirty pound 712 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: back that can really turn it up. If Philip Rivers 713 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: can keep having the games like he had last week, 714 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: I think they just can really open it up Ryan 715 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: Matthews to really turn up the yards if he can 716 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: get the kids. I've divorced Ryan Matthews. I'm done with him. 717 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: You know what, I hope he does well. I'm done 718 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: relationship with a finished I've done all right, Jamal, you're 719 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,959 Speaker 1: staying busy. Also, post football life expert Evail dot Com 720 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: tell us about it. What I did was I took 721 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: the NFL protocols on evaluating talent, and what I deal 722 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: was kind of narrowed that down to the high school 723 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: level and bought on guys like Steve at Water, William McGinnis, 724 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: Jamie Dooke's Cordill Steward, so they can give that expert 725 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: eye and you help evaluate these kids to help them develop, 726 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: so they can actually a better on the field through 727 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: their whole path to development. Al right, best luck and 728 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: tell us when these guys are gonna be fantasy starts, 729 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: we can get ahead of the curve. Autom Absolutely, I'd 730 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: appreciate your time. Thanks. All right, we return on NFL 731 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: Fantasy Live. Adam Rank runs through his likes dislikes, and 732 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: with four teams out of buy, we've got the plug 733 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: and play spots starts that make all the difference. On Sunday, 734 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: we roll on. Hey everybody, Adam Rank here. Every Friday 735 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: I foblished my weekly likes and dislikes and fantasy football 736 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: movie Sons of Anarchy and so much more. This week 737 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: there's a special appearance by Tiffany Thysen. Yeah, you won't 738 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: want to miss that. But anyways, let's get to the 739 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: fantasy football. My first like of the week Michael Vick. 740 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: I would start Vic over every quarterback other than the 741 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: three Wiseman, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, and Aaron Rodgers. But 742 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: why Vick? Well, he does rank fourth among fantasy quarterbacks 743 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: this season, and he's going up against the New York Giants, 744 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: will have allowed a league high ten touchdown passes this year. 745 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: A quarterback I don't like this week is Colin Kaepernick. 746 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: I'm not ready to jump off the Kaepernick bangwagon just yet, 747 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,479 Speaker 1: but he's my number twelve quarterback this week. The main 748 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: reason is the matchup against the Houston Texans, who have 749 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: allowed the fewest passing yards this year. I expect the 750 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: forty Niners to go out the Texans like the Seahawks 751 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: did last week and run the ball a ton. So Kaepernick, 752 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: you're on the bench. I like Ray Rice a lot 753 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: this week. Sure, the Ravens ignored the ground attack against 754 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: the Bills in Week four, but that means only one 755 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: thing for this week, and over correction, it's my favorite. 756 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: The Ravens have the Dolphins this week, who have allowed 757 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: the seventh most fantasy points of running backs, so he 758 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: is a great start. I don't like Dwayne Bow He's 759 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: really let us down this season as he ranks forty 760 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: six the monkst fantasy receivers. Actually I didn't think he 761 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: was that good. Bow has had just two touchdown passes 762 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: in his last thirteen games, and he's going against the Titans, 763 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: who have allowed the six fewest fantasy points of receivers. 764 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: And finally, I like Jordy Nelson. You grabbed him in 765 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: the middle rounds of your drafts and he rewarded you 766 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: as he scored at least nine points every week, well 767 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: not last week because he was on a buy So 768 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: make sure he's in your lineup this week because he 769 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: scored seven teen touch John's in his last sixteen home games. 770 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the board and there you 771 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: see Michael Vick and of course my guy Tony Rohmer. 772 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,880 Speaker 1: We talked about him earlier, nineteen points in each of 773 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: the last two weeks, right Ry, Jordy Nelson, Kaepernick, Sorry, 774 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 1: Carson Palmer, Rochard mendenhof not liking you this week, and 775 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 1: now it's time to send it over to Jason Smith 776 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,720 Speaker 1: and the fellows. It's four some week five Spots starts, 777 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: Thank you, Mr Rank. That's right time now for our 778 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: Hotels dot Com Fantasy Spotlight Spots starts the week. These 779 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: maybe players you never start again after this week, but 780 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: because of the boys you have issues, you may be 781 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: starting the makbar. Give me a guy you're playing this week. Well, 782 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,760 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Keenan Allen from the San Diego Chargers. 783 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 1: He's going up against the Oakland Raiders, of course on 784 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: our network. But when I look at Keenan Allen, he 785 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: knows how to use his big body frameman. And I 786 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 1: look at this Oakland Raiders defense. I mean, this is 787 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 1: a defense right now that is giving up three hundred 788 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,919 Speaker 1: yard reception yards for the last two or three home games, 789 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:55,399 Speaker 1: and so I look at that as a boy, who 790 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: is the eligible guy now that Malcolm Floyd is out, 791 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: it's Keenan Allen is well. It works well with those 792 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: slant routes. I think Philip Rivers is going to be 793 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: dumping it off to him a lot. Look for Kenyan 794 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: Allen to put up some big numbers and Rivers talked 795 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: about the trust he head in and now you saw 796 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: that thirty one yard pass play where Rivers under threw 797 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 1: the football. He came back for it. Now he's got 798 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: trust in Keena Allen, which is a pretty big deal. 799 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: All Right, Mr Reik, give us your big spot start 800 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: of the week this week. Well, I don't want to 801 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: pile on the Oakland Raiders here, but I will go 802 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: with Danny Woodhead for a similar reason what Aukby was 803 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: talking about. This is just a great matchup. And if 804 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: you've seen Woodhead over the last couple of weeks, he's 805 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 1: really started to involve himself into that offense. His fantasy 806 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: points have increased in each of the last three weeks, 807 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: and I understand it's a little bit of a tough matchup, 808 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: but he is a good start going forward, and I'm 809 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: gonna give you a little stet in Week one, Eddie 810 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: Royal two touchdowns against the Houston Texans. The following week 811 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: three touchdowns. But okay, does that mean it's gonna be, 812 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,840 Speaker 1: you know, the same for Danny Woodhead Maybe maybe not. 813 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,399 Speaker 1: And good news for hardcore viewers of NFL Network, That'll 814 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: be the last time I do that, Joe, So I'm 815 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 1: gonna it's Sunday, so I'm sorry one more time. But Jason, 816 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: how about a spot start from you? All Right? This 817 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 1: is kind of a tough one because he's been struggling 818 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks, But this is a great 819 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: time for Sam Bradford to finally step back up and 820 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 1: be the guy he was the first couple of weeks 821 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 1: of the year. He's going against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 822 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 1: Jaguars have allowed nine passing touchdowns this year. That's the 823 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: third most in the league, seven of them in the 824 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. If he's ever gonna break out, 825 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: if you need a quarterback, Bradford's the guy this week. 826 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: Still believe in him as being someone who can break 827 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,919 Speaker 1: out he's been a bad slump, but he's got the talent. 828 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 1: You've seen him do it earlier on this season. He 829 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: does it again on Sunday, and he's widely available. Pick 830 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: him up over eight percent of leagues. You can go 831 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: get him in Marcus, give me a guy for you. 832 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:39,959 Speaker 1: You were right on last week. He gave us Marlon Brown. 833 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 1: He was terrific. Keep the hot streat. Well, you go 834 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: with Sam Bradford for the Rams. I'm going with one 835 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 1: of his targets. I'm going with Jared Cook this week. 836 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 1: I mean in fantasy you pray on the week was 837 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: weaker than the Jacksonville Jaguars. Right now, the St. Louis 838 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 1: Rams cannot run the football, and as long as they 839 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: can't run the football, they're gonna continue to throw it. 840 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 1: Jerry Cook was great at the start of the year. 841 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,839 Speaker 1: Had a nice game against the forty niners. Not very 842 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: not going very deep down the field, a lot of 843 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,879 Speaker 1: intermediate routes, but they can look deeper down the field 844 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: for him. He's seen six of more targets in each 845 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: game this season. I think Jerry could gets a lot 846 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 1: more looks from Sam Bradford this week, and they continue 847 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: to pick on with the week Jaguars defense. So those 848 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: are our spots starts. Let's take a look at our 849 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: Fantasy spot Starts predictions board.

And if 869 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:24,760 Speaker 1: I arm you with science, the steering flow around storms 870 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: as counterclockwise, so it draws it all the way up 871 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,839 Speaker 1: in this fashion here. That means anywhere from Green Bay 872 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 1: down through the Music City we have wet weather on 873 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:39,160 Speaker 1: the docket. What's it all mean for a forecast you made? Say, Well, 874 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 1: the chef's great googly mooglie ahead to Nashville and there's 875 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: a shower thunderstorm on occasion. It's not bad temperature wise, 876 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 1: that's for sure. But we're not done yet because up 877 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: at Lamba, even though it's not a frozen tundra, tempts 878 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: are falling throughout the game. Ah, that wind is nasty, 879 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,800 Speaker 1: but there's not much in terms of wet weather. Meanwhile, 880 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: Ravens fit ends who be sweating thinking about this one 881 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: with the actual humidity. But there's also the Patriots Bengals 882 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:11,320 Speaker 1: shower thunderstorm on occasion, wind out of southwest Hufford and 883 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 1: puffing all the time. And the Saints a Dome team 884 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: going to Chicago. Again, nothing terribly cold, but the wind 885 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: and the threat of a shower that's in So the 886 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: bottom line, and it's not that some players will have 887 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,919 Speaker 1: a bad game, but those that can. I call out 888 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 1: Garrett Hartley, great kicker, but in the wind at Soldier Field. Careful. 889 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: Last time Tompkins was in the rain, remember the Jets 890 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: seven targets, caught two of them. Great stats now, but 891 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: with that rain, small hands, wet ball, do the math 892 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 1: for crying out loud and big backs such as la 893 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 1: Garrett here, they tumble like a pile of bricks. They 894 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: don't have any flashy dancy moves, so that's a concern there. 895 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford with a ball fluttering, that's shades of Scott 896 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 1: mit Choll and Andy Reid and the Chiefs. Awesome. But 897 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 1: the problem here they're playing in the rain for the 898 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 1: first time this year, so I'm calling out the whole 899 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: stinking team and ray Rice coming off a hip injury 900 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: with that humidity.
