Speaker 2: What's up? Welsh? How's it going? Man?
Speaker 1: I feel like you're like I'm talking to you from
Speaker 1: a distance. I'm like, hey, how you doing? We are?
Speaker 1: I feel slap happy right now. Today. It's been a
Speaker 1: lot of shows. We're picking up. It's a playoff time.
Speaker 1: It's Week sixteen, important questions. Everything's on the line for everybody.
Speaker 1: You get to like knock down a couple of leagues
Speaker 1: and you get to like really hyper focus. We've got
Speaker 1: the holidays coming up. There's kind of a lot happening, man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, it's honestly, my brain is fried at this point,
Speaker 2: and I'm trying to keep up and give the people
Speaker 2: what they need, the best advice that I can do,
Speaker 2: because I'm my last legs here. I was talking to
Speaker 2: like some of the other analytic like kind of all
Speaker 2: feel the same, especially like you throw the holidays in,
Speaker 2: it's just another And again, it wasn't always like this either,
Speaker 2: Like we used to be like this used to be
Speaker 2: the last week of fantasy football. But then then if
Speaker 2: I was like, well, we need to dominate every single
Speaker 2: week of your life, every single moment of your life.
Speaker 2: So we're playing on Christmas, We're doing it all. But
Speaker 2: we're back again. No days off, as the chat has
Speaker 2: stated very quite clearly, and we're here and we're ready
Speaker 2: to break down Week sixteen. Get you those Fantasy championships
Speaker 2: and yeah, Shadow of the Hedgehog.
Speaker 1: Yeah, by the way, your last legs and he's helping
Speaker 1: you out. It's great. Every time Andrew talks, Shadow runs
Speaker 1: around him and I'm I'm just like I didn't even
Speaker 1: know Shadow, and I'm I was I was trying to
Speaker 1: explain this too, because I'm getting shamed a lot on
Speaker 1: this show. I've never felt like an old man until
Speaker 1: apparently I'm around a bunch of people that are just
Speaker 1: a little bit younger, andone's like, oh, you don't know
Speaker 1: what Hollow Night is. You don't know what Shadow is?
Speaker 1: And I'm like, listen, I'm playing games for you. You
Speaker 1: know Earthworm Gym. Let's talk about Earthworm Gym for a minute.
Speaker 1: Original mega man. Yeah, I don't know any the character names,
Speaker 1: I don't know anything like that, but I know games.
Speaker 1: I played some of those gamesn't ball. Come on, man,
Speaker 1: are you going to see the new Sonic by the way?
Speaker 2: Probably? Yeah, I mean I go way back with Shadows, so.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you knew stuff. Is counter Reeves a good casting
Speaker 1: for Shadows?
Speaker 2: I think it is. I think it is because Shadow
Speaker 2: is kind of like that anti hero like doppelganger, like
Speaker 2: I'm bad but I'm good at the same time kind
Speaker 2: of vibe where that's kind of like exactly.
Speaker 1: Exactly like that and very breath breathy voice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, very breathy. It's funny because the Shadow. When Shadow
Speaker 2: had his first game, but that was standalone game, it
Speaker 2: was very divisive because it was basically Sega decided like, hey,
Speaker 2: you know what's really popular right now, GTA, how do
Speaker 2: we make Sonic and GTA? So they made this other shit,
Speaker 2: the nade his own Hedgehog, gave him a bad side,
Speaker 2: gave him a gun. People over, yes, you can you
Speaker 2: have vehicles? He has guns?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: He does have? The guy I remember seeing that gun thing?
Speaker 1: Oh my god?
Speaker 2: Really yep, because they were like, well's hot, GTA, let's
Speaker 2: make a game.
Speaker 1: Hey, I'm Sonic, im from Vice City. What?
Speaker 2: Yeah? It actually does he shoot people?
Speaker 1: Or does it just like a prop?
Speaker 4: What?
Speaker 2: No, it's a gun. It's a gun. In his game
Speaker 2: Shadow of the Hedgehog, which came out like two thousand
Speaker 2: and six, he has a gun. The game was rated
Speaker 2: E ten and I remember I got it and then
Speaker 2: my dad immediately took it away after he saw how
Speaker 2: much guns were you used.
Speaker 1: Then Batman doesn't have guns and this rodent does. That's crazy.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that i'd learned something. You guys all
Speaker 1: learned something. Sorry, kind of cool. I mean if they
Speaker 1: would have made him a little John Wick though, and
Speaker 1: pretty sweet if that would have been going on there.
Speaker 1: But you learned about shadow, let's learn I know a
Speaker 1: couple of people out there and the let's tarn a
Speaker 1: little bit about fantasy football. Then let's like those people. Sorry,
Speaker 1: shadow doesn't make you happy, but maybe week sixteen will.
Speaker 1: Hopefully the advice will get you there as well. And
Speaker 1: all the touchup. We were joking too before. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get the audience up, but we're joking before. It's tough
Speaker 1: because it's like in the playoffs. At week sixteen, you
Speaker 1: look at a lot of this and I know you
Speaker 1: guys will actually have some real decisions, but I'm just like,
Speaker 1: just start the guys, like, just go your roll the dude,
Speaker 1: this is the dude time, Like, don't get cute. Oh,
Speaker 1: Drey mcbradersn't scored a touchdown? Should it? No, it's all
Speaker 1: the touchdowns this week, Lamar Jackson. We've done this like it.
Speaker 1: It feels very core. So hopefully we have some real
Speaker 1: questions are out there. I don't have a ton of
Speaker 1: big questions. The biggest one actually just got answered for me.
Speaker 1: We're finding that Isaac Grindo looks like he is not
Speaker 1: going to play this weekend, So fire up those Patrick Taylors.
Speaker 1: You have a week sixteen Andrew where Kendre Miller, Jerome
Speaker 1: Ford and Patrick Taylor might win some people some.
Speaker 2: Stuff, yeah, or lose some stuff too. That's very scary.
Speaker 2: Starting Patrick Taylor, we have seen him in a featured role,
Speaker 2: so uh, bit a bit sketch. So Debo, is it
Speaker 2: finally time for.
Speaker 1: Sure? Like let's do it? Like let's I mean, we
Speaker 1: can manifest that into existence at some point. But no,
Speaker 1: And by the way, who the hell's in the playoff
Speaker 1: that has debo right now? Who's in week sixteen with
Speaker 1: Deebo on the roster? You think what we think that
Speaker 1: you know those percentages out there, like if you have
Speaker 1: jamar Chas for fifty five percent, Like, what do you
Speaker 1: think percentage of Week sixteen playoff with the debo?
Speaker 5: Is?
Speaker 2: It's gotta be really low?
Speaker 1: Single digits probably?
Speaker 2: I mean you haven't been I mean, if you've been
Speaker 2: starting him, I don't know. I mean I already bet
Speaker 2: the under on his receiving yards.
Speaker 1: What is it?
Speaker 2: Here's a forty seven and a half and he hasn't
Speaker 2: done twenty two and five?
Speaker 1: Strike and give me break, give me a can can
Speaker 1: I ladder that down? They should give us that opportunity.
Speaker 2: Can I right this ladder and half can.
Speaker 1: I go forty six? Forty thirty five? I want the opposite?
Speaker 1: What would that be? Is I call that a step stool?
Speaker 1: What would we call that? What is it? You name
Speaker 1: that for me? Escalator? Escalator of sadness? Okay, I'm going
Speaker 1: to call it the escalator. Maybe we'll have some people
Speaker 1: in here that'll figure it out. Uh Chinzer speaking of
Speaker 1: video game shaming and holl of night chins or what's Someboddy?
Speaker 1: What's up? Welsh?
Speaker 6: I feel like I'm getting targeted here. The sagna, the holadnite.
Speaker 1: You're your avatar is also moving.
Speaker 2: You're the crux of this whole stick with what am Yeah?
Speaker 1: Sorry, okay, yeah go ahead, Yeah you get me here
Speaker 1: a little bit? Uh you have a little bit of
Speaker 1: blame here? Yeah? Do you see the bat moving? The bat?
Speaker 2: The bat right? Chins?
Speaker 6: Are I too played an ad and walked away and
Speaker 6: look at this?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Well, I'm what I'm going to find a fun ad.
Speaker 1: I'm actually a little bit worried what I can get.
Speaker 1: What's a what's your week sixteen question? Genser?
Speaker 7: I got two?
Speaker 6: So this last week in one of my leagues, this
Speaker 6: guy he was the Christian McCaffrey owner that did not
Speaker 6: have Jordan Mason or anybody, and he so noow put
Speaker 6: a good team together and he ends up losing. He
Speaker 6: goes into Monday Night down point two with Darnell Mooney
Speaker 6: and we all know how that ended. So I wanted
Speaker 6: to know, what if you guys have one that's like
Speaker 6: one of the most painful losses you ever remember in
Speaker 6: fantasy football.
Speaker 1: Oh that's a that's a really really good one, you know.
Speaker 1: My unfortunate answer because apparently, I mean I can't remember
Speaker 1: anything like I involved myself with stuff and then I
Speaker 1: don't remember like the logistics. I probably knew shadow and
Speaker 1: well maybe not with a gun and stuff. But my
Speaker 1: point is is, I know I lost this year by
Speaker 1: like point zero eight in a league, and I know
Speaker 1: that hurt, but I just don't have this vivid like
Speaker 1: you know, back in ninety two, and you know, like
Speaker 1: one of those where like it's it's like yesterday. I
Speaker 1: have one hundred percent lost some absolutely brutal ones, and
Speaker 1: the most recent one was this week was me making
Speaker 1: a just stupid ass decision and I started Jameis Winston
Speaker 1: over Aaron Rodgers too, just just bad quarterbacks. It cost
Speaker 1: me a playoff run, and that hurt ericson. Do you
Speaker 1: have a more like realistic like one where you are
Speaker 1: just like it haunts you still a little bit to
Speaker 1: these days.
Speaker 2: I think I'm not sure if it's because I've had
Speaker 2: so many that they've all just like, well then they
Speaker 2: now blocked out of my mind somehow. But I think
Speaker 2: I've just done enough. I've done a good enough job.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm sorry. I don't have it anything.
Speaker 1: Oh you're just so good you just never lose.
Speaker 2: No, No, it's quite opposite. It's that I always lose
Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, well got it. It all just
Speaker 2: melt together, like I just don't feel pain anymore.
Speaker 1: Okay, because I was gonna remind you. I was gonna
Speaker 1: remind you abou Kyle Pitts from two weeks ago if
Speaker 1: that jogged your memory. But yeah, actually that's a really
Speaker 1: good answer. Like it's kind of like a scar. I
Speaker 1: would agree with that. There's so much volume that it's
Speaker 1: scarred over that I don't think I have one, but
Speaker 1: would love to hear from you guys. Uh, there's there
Speaker 1: is a comfort we all have, and that's probably why
Speaker 1: chins are asked the question where we can all come
Speaker 1: together as people being able to relate. You know that
Speaker 1: you can relate with another human being over a horrific
Speaker 1: fantasy loss and we all just feel you. So feel
Speaker 1: free to drop it in the comments on the podcast
Speaker 1: side if you've got any but sorry gins or we
Speaker 1: don't have any really really good one. So, but I
Speaker 1: know I've lost by fractional points. I don't know that one.
Speaker 1: It's like, it's like trauma. You're just like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: that'll come back later, Like I'm gonna not process this now,
Speaker 1: but it'll come back at some point. But that's me Bryce, eratops,
Speaker 1: suck up, Bryce, what's going on?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 8: I know, well you always say don't be cute, and
Speaker 8: I'm kind of with something that's making me feel pretty adorable,
Speaker 8: to be honest. So yeah, So do we like Neighbors
Speaker 8: or McMillan better? Like, I know Neighbors is kind of
Speaker 8: the alpha, but you know, obviously not a good team
Speaker 8: and McMillan's kind of been turning it up. So which
Speaker 8: one do you guys like?
Speaker 7: Better?
Speaker 1: Feeling cute? My delete later. I don't know if that's
Speaker 1: being cute necessarily. I actually like McMillan. I like McMillan
Speaker 1: is a flex option, just not over not over Neighbors.
Speaker 1: But I don't know ericson what do you think.
Speaker 2: I mean, I've been down on Neighbors back to back
Speaker 2: weeks and he's shoved it in my face back to
Speaker 2: back weeks. So I mean he's a really good player.
Speaker 2: He sees a ton of volume, and he's playing the
Speaker 2: foul I mean A J. Terrell has to be one
Speaker 2: of the worst shadow corners I've ever seen, Like he.
Speaker 1: Gets so much shadow shadow.
Speaker 2: So I mean he's got lock locks, the best quarterback
Speaker 2: the Giants have, so it's an upgrade from the Veto,
Speaker 2: et cetera. So I'm gonna play Neighbors.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's just tough to push him.
Speaker 2: I don't think that's I don't think that's cute. I
Speaker 2: mean I think yeah, I mean, I get like the
Speaker 2: question because Neighbors has a bad quarterback, but yeah, he
Speaker 2: sees way too much volumes. He's also really good as
Speaker 2: a player, Like he can make plays after the catch,
Speaker 2: and his matchup is good to be different. He was
Speaker 2: like facing the Eagles, Like, Okay, I can understand that,
Speaker 2: but yeah, that's a.
Speaker 1: Good point that that's not like the definition of cute.
Speaker 1: That's like I don't want to neighbors and I'm looking
Speaker 1: for any other reason to get him out. And maybe
Speaker 1: there's a version of that, like I feel like the
Speaker 1: cuteness is like Jayden Daniels is going up against the
Speaker 1: Eagles this weekend, and you're just like, well, you know,
Speaker 1: Anthony Richards, you know, like maybe that is that that's
Speaker 1: a little defined out that you could still be cute there, Bryce,
Speaker 1: But that's not something I'm going to do. But I
Speaker 1: do view McMillan as someone that is a flex option
Speaker 1: this week, but you probably have, you know, much better
Speaker 1: options in there. So Corna Wallace in the house, So.
Speaker 9: Hey, what's up, guys.
Speaker 10: So my question is about Jared boff. I don't I
Speaker 10: don't love him this week. I mean, it's just kind
Speaker 10: of a bad game environment. I don't think he's going
Speaker 10: to put up I don't think he's going to be
Speaker 10: pressed to have to throw the ball a lot. So
Speaker 10: is it just being too ridiculous to try to maybe
Speaker 10: pivot off of him. I planned on hedging to Kirk Cousins,
Speaker 10: but that didn't obviously play out. So it's either like Pennix,
Speaker 10: Cooper Rush, or like Russell Wilson. And I don't love
Speaker 10: any of those options either.
Speaker 1: So Ericson hates Jared Goff this week, absolutely despises So
Speaker 1: this is definitely your wheelhouse. Is Cooper Rush enough for
Speaker 1: you to hate on Jared Goff? Jared Goff currently is
Speaker 1: QB eleven on ECR. Mister Cooper Rush is quarterback twenty one.
Speaker 2: Cooper Rush has been a top fifteen quarterback real last
Speaker 2: four games. Again, I don't love the pivots, but it
Speaker 2: would be Rush, and I don't like golf, so yeah,
Speaker 2: I would, yeah, rush for me if you want to
Speaker 2: make that move.
Speaker 1: He at you know what that's from. No, I would
Speaker 1: still go golf, but you don't go with your feeling,
Speaker 1: go the gut. Erickson doesn't like him. Erickson smarter than me,
Speaker 1: so and I think Cooper Rush's floor is actually pretty solid,
Speaker 1: So I would That's not one where I would be like, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, I'd be fine with that, but I'm going
Speaker 1: with Jared Goff still five touchdowns last week, drettis what's up' jodis? Guys,
Speaker 1: you have a very festive emoji. Do you see that?
Speaker 2: Eric?
Speaker 1: It's like a like a Santa Hat. I'm down on
Speaker 1: my Discord game. You guys are crazy. You guys are good, Jodis,
Speaker 1: what's up?
Speaker 11: I had two real quick SI start questions, But before that,
Speaker 11: Chinzer said that he had a start question that you
Speaker 11: guys missed too.
Speaker 12: It was a.
Speaker 13: Start one between Patrick Taylor, Jerome Ford or McMillan.
Speaker 1: So we skipped Patrick Patrick for Patrick Tyler Taylor, Jerome
Speaker 1: Ford and who McMillan big Jerome Ford for me this week?
Speaker 1: That was also on the Prediction Show. I'm big old
Speaker 1: Jerome Ford breakaway. He's the only guy Bengals worst fantasy
Speaker 1: points given up to our most fantasy points given up
Speaker 1: to running backs over last month and most receiving yards
Speaker 1: are running backs over the last month. Very hardcore Jerome
Speaker 1: Ford for me ericson do you co sign?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think you got to go with the touches.
Speaker 1: With Ford, we don't know. Yeah, like you said too,
Speaker 1: we don't know what we're gett and with Taylor. So
Speaker 1: all right, Jednis, thank you for being the proxy for
Speaker 1: that question that we missed.
Speaker 13: Well, what were you so? Like? I said?
Speaker 11: Two quick It starts with Patrick Taylor now playing instead
Speaker 11: of Grindo. If you would have to slide him into
Speaker 11: your rankings, whereabouts would you put him?
Speaker 1: It's a good question. I had not even done this
Speaker 1: because I was in a meeting when it happened. I
Speaker 1: had Grindo. Gosh, I think I had him at fifteen
Speaker 1: or sixteen? Eric Soon, where did you have Grinda? And
Speaker 1: have you made the Taylor move yet?
Speaker 2: I had Grinda like RB twenty okay, but like I
Speaker 2: was also I had also like moved him down because
Speaker 2: he was on the injury report, Like I don't know,
Speaker 2: Like I like to always try to go like well,
Speaker 2: like next running back up, but like now we're onto
Speaker 2: like the fourth string guy, Like it is Kyle Shannon
Speaker 2: gonna look at Taylor like he's looked at McCaffrey and
Speaker 2: Mason and Grenda were like he sees them run. He's like,
Speaker 2: I gotta keep feeding this guy, Like is Taylor that guy?
Speaker 2: Like that's my contort. It's like, now that we've reached
Speaker 2: the fourth stringer, is he gonna feel the same way
Speaker 2: or is he just gonna like, hey, let's let it
Speaker 2: rip with Rock Berdy against the Dolphins.
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna let it rip. By the way,
Speaker 1: but that maybe is a question two of like what
Speaker 1: Taylor's receiving game is. So you're so you're leaning, and
Speaker 1: I agree with what you're going to that Taylor should
Speaker 1: probably be lower than where Grenda was.
Speaker 2: Yes, just because there's like more projection with him. We
Speaker 2: don't know how they're gonna use Like I mean, he's
Speaker 2: gonna see every single touch. I mean the fact that
Speaker 2: he's he's been active, Like he's active in the passing game.
Speaker 2: So I don't think that he's I just think among
Speaker 2: the running backs, like I don't know, like I feel
Speaker 2: like he's like right next to like Kendry Miller.
Speaker 1: Ah, you sneaky, little sneak. I was gonna ask you,
Speaker 1: Kendra Miller or Patrick Taylor. That's exactly what I wanted
Speaker 1: to find out. Which one I.
Speaker 2: Think that I would probably take Taylor for And and
Speaker 2: you know, and stop me if I if this doesn't
Speaker 2: make any sense, like logically, like I think Taylor has
Speaker 2: more upside because he plays in the forty nine ers
Speaker 2: offense versus Kendrick Miller on the road as like fourteen
Speaker 2: point dogs. But I feel better about Miller's like touch projection.
Speaker 2: But I mean Taylor over guys like the Jaguars running backs,
Speaker 2: which one of them is gonna score a touchdown? We
Speaker 2: don't really know, Pa Checko, I don't like love the
Speaker 2: Chiefs running backs necessary this week. So I think that's
Speaker 2: the range you're looking at Taylor in and if he
Speaker 2: ends up getting the main role, like I think he
Speaker 2: has way more upside than any of these split that like,
Speaker 2: I want him over Steelers running backs. I don't want
Speaker 2: to play Steels running back against the Ravens for.
Speaker 1: Perspective, And I agree that Kendrick Miller is twenty seven.
Speaker 1: Most of those backs you just mentioned were under Kendrey
Speaker 1: Miller in the ECR this week, So I think you're
Speaker 1: kind of lining him up to be about twenty six
Speaker 1: twenty seven. I think that's probably the right spot, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's probably where we're gonna Yeah, I think definitely
Speaker 2: should be lower than Garndo, just because he's like less proven,
Speaker 2: doesn't have draft capital, like I mean, he's a practice
Speaker 2: squad player, and we don't know if they're going to
Speaker 2: get more of these other guys involved, Like who didn't
Speaker 2: they add somebody else? Besides because it's Keishan Khanda, Is
Speaker 2: that the only other guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah it was. It was a band of Canada Vaughan
Speaker 1: and Patrick Taylor and then they have Grinda that's their second.
Speaker 2: And also the other thing is like, I know nobody
Speaker 2: wants to hear it, but Dio is gonna get carries,
Speaker 2: like like he does get carries.
Speaker 1: So seven for fourteen yards, it's not good carries. But no,
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't even. I have so many things
Speaker 1: in my I was like a Sonic character, but Debo
Speaker 1: is no longer a Sonic character. Dretis what was question
Speaker 1: number two?
Speaker 13: Okay? Is it okay to ask a DFS question?
Speaker 1: Sure? Yeah, I know some guys.
Speaker 13: Are like, no, no, get out of here.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know how much help I'm going
Speaker 2: to be, like I'm not good at.
Speaker 1: In the Pentathlon League.
Speaker 10: I do.
Speaker 1: Just reminder, it's five different things. One of them is
Speaker 1: DFS hands down. DFS is bogman and I the worst,
Speaker 1: and I have taken it over the last couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: Whatever quarterback I pick will be garbage. So you might
Speaker 1: want to make you guys are gonna hate I actually
Speaker 1: because I've been getting cute. So I was like, remember
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, like ooh, I like, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, Will Levis, I like bo Nicks to all
Speaker 1: of them garbage. I decided to go hard this week,
Speaker 1: so I'm going with the expensive quarterback, so hopefully I
Speaker 1: don't ruin him. But ask your question away, dreadis okay?
Speaker 11: So I used the lovely who should I start tool
Speaker 11: on the Fantasy Pro's website and they're like an even
Speaker 11: split between the three of them. So maybe you guys
Speaker 11: could rank them from favorite to least between the Vikings,
Speaker 11: the Bills, and the Falcons this week?
Speaker 1: Are you talking for defense or no?
Speaker 13: Yeah, for defense not IDP. I'm sorry, Oh.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, no, no, I just didn't. I wasn't thinking.
Speaker 1: I was thinking running back there for a second. So
Speaker 1: it was a crap. It was Bill's vikings and who.
Speaker 2: Is that Bill's Viking?
Speaker 1: Drop it treadis, Oh, you're not listening ericson. Sorry, I'm
Speaker 1: just hosting a show. You're not listening Bill's vikings. Foul Falcons? Okay,
Speaker 1: so rank those? We have to talk. It's a podcast.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I mean put me on the spot
Speaker 2: with defensive ranking.
Speaker 1: Here, I'll get give me this. Falcons are ranked third
Speaker 1: in ECR currently against the Giants, Bills are ranked fourth
Speaker 1: in ECR going up against New England, and the Vikings
Speaker 1: are ranked second. I didn't even see that, So you
Speaker 1: you're talking about two three and four on ECR with
Speaker 1: funny enough, Falcons the five four star matchup rating are
Speaker 1: ranked higher than the Falcons and Bills, who are given
Speaker 1: a five star matchup rating. So what's your what's your preference?
Speaker 1: How would you rank them?
Speaker 2: I mean they're all such in such good spots because
Speaker 2: I'm trying to see, like I mean, at this point,
Speaker 2: it's like which defense is going to face the most
Speaker 2: like dropbacks is basically like all I'm considering.
Speaker 1: That's theoretically the Seahawks.
Speaker 2: I think it's Buffalo. I mean the Patriots. Yeah, the
Speaker 2: patriotsre gonna have to drop back the most times out
Speaker 2: of any of these teams. Again, like who they're playing,
Speaker 2: So like Seattle likes to run the football, that game
Speaker 2: is a club. I mean, there's a reason it's a
Speaker 2: fourteen point spread in the Patriots and Bills. Like Drake
Speaker 2: may is gonna they're gonna be down at to throw
Speaker 2: every single time, and that's going to create turnovers. So
Speaker 2: I like the Bills the most.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's funny because I actually have this choice that
Speaker 1: Falcons available in a couple leagues I'm playing, and I
Speaker 1: have not picked them up, so I would probably go bills,
Speaker 1: then maybe Falcons, and then if Gino doesn't play, it's
Speaker 1: the Vikings.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, If Gino hasnt play, it's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's against sack Machines, Samhowe one hundred percent. But I
Speaker 2: think that Gino looks like he's gonna play.
Speaker 1: So that's right. Are they playing? Like Dretta said, well,
Speaker 1: you can find out over at Fantasy Pros. I believe
Speaker 1: it's fantasypros dot com. Slash Are they playing? That's the
Speaker 1: url you can check out all the distinctively great pieces
Speaker 1: of this tool. It's AI years of injury data and
Speaker 1: you can check it out all throughout the week. You've
Speaker 1: only got, you know, another week or two to get
Speaker 1: into it, but you can follow it along. It'll help
Speaker 1: you in making some of those decisions, specifically saying, if
Speaker 1: you know you're under fifty percent, you might want to
Speaker 1: start making some moves to have some backups, you know.
Speaker 1: And Alvin Kamara this week has not still been ruled
Speaker 1: out as we're recording this and plan Kendre Miller in there,
Speaker 1: same thing could have been with Grindo. So go and
Speaker 1: check it out today? Are they playing Steve D? Steve
Speaker 1: D in the House? Premium member access to it All?
Speaker 1: Hey Mary Christmas, what's up?
Speaker 8: Man?
Speaker 14: I have a couple of slowly or not so slowly
Speaker 14: developing a complex over a couple of start six questions.
Speaker 14: I'm hoping you guys can fill a running back, a
Speaker 14: wide receiver, and a flex spot for me. Of my choices,
Speaker 14: I've got Hopkins, I've got Romeo, I've got McMillan, I've
Speaker 14: got Debo, I've got ken Walker, Rashad White, and Kendre Miller.
Speaker 14: But just for some context, I'm already starting Baker and
Speaker 14: Mike Evans and ken Walker is looking kind of up
Speaker 14: in the air, so I may be starting Rashad White too.
Speaker 14: So I'm one step away from starting the entire Tampa
Speaker 14: Bay offense.
Speaker 1: So what did you need? A running back, a wide out,
Speaker 1: and a.
Speaker 14: Flex I need a running back, a wide out, and
Speaker 14: a flex correct.
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 2: Cool?
Speaker 1: And I think thank God for Dreddis. I think jeddis
Speaker 1: put the names at the bottom here. Yes, Dobbs, who
Speaker 1: is Hawkins like Hopkins? Hopkins. Oh okay, it's like what
Speaker 1: Andrew Hawkins. Yeah, that's that's exactly.
Speaker 2: What I was the only that's the only Hawkins.
Speaker 1: Hopkins, Dobbs, McMillan, Deebo is that Ken Walker? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know White Kendre.
Speaker 2: Miller receiver running back flex so you need Okay, so
Speaker 2: whitees in. I don't care how many Buccaneers.
Speaker 1: I mean, I I love Bucky.
Speaker 2: I mean, he can't play BUCkies on one of his choices.
Speaker 1: I know. I'm just I like Bucky, I like Lamb.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, White's been fine. Bucky's been good too.
Speaker 1: But if that if that is is that Ken Walker,
Speaker 1: If that's Ken Walker, you got to start Ken Kenny Kenny.
Speaker 2: Is he healthy?
Speaker 1: Though not really.
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's gonna play, So I don't
Speaker 2: know if you can really play him. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm not playing. I'm trying to be like civil with Debo.
Speaker 1: I hate Hopkins.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 1: He ruined my I'm out on him forever. He ruined my.
Speaker 15: Lad.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a great match up anyway for him.
Speaker 2: Dobbs is interesting because the Saints are bad and he's
Speaker 2: like the number one red zone target Kendra has safe
Speaker 2: with a floor.
Speaker 1: I guess if ken Walker's active, do you go Walker
Speaker 1: at flex, white at running back, and then we have
Speaker 1: to take one of the whiteouts? Could you do? Are
Speaker 1: you good with that? Did you put Debo in there?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: No, I'd rather play Kendra than Diebo. I'd rather play
Speaker 2: McMillan the debo. I don't know. I mean, yeah, I'd
Speaker 2: rather play McMillan the debo.
Speaker 1: Okay, then screw Debo, McMillan, Dobbs or Hopkins. Pick one.
Speaker 2: McMillan.
Speaker 1: All right, I well good, I'm with you. Actually, all right,
Speaker 1: So McMillan, if Walker plays, he's the flex. If Walker
Speaker 1: doesn't play, I go Kendre Miller.
Speaker 2: Yes, I think that's the move.
Speaker 1: Yep, we agree, Maker bay Field, what's up?
Speaker 10: What's going guys?
Speaker 1: Good Man? What's what do you got?
Speaker 5: I have a couple of questions. I know you guys
Speaker 5: said not forget cute, but in a two QB league,
Speaker 5: would you start uh Cooper Rush or Boone Nicks?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I don't think. And by the way, I think that
Speaker 1: is the definition of not being cute. I think those
Speaker 1: are good. Definitely. When I say be cute, it's like
Speaker 1: Lamar should I start, you know, Mac Jones or Lamar
Speaker 1: Jackson or whatever nonsense? People are doing that one that's
Speaker 1: actually really good one Axon, what do you think about that?
Speaker 1: Cooper rush over?
Speaker 2: Are you played?
Speaker 9: So?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Bo did play? So did you start? So you started?
Speaker 10: No?
Speaker 1: No, no, we're we're talking about it because this airs
Speaker 1: after Thursday. So so we we went with bow. What's
Speaker 1: your next one for flex? Would you flex?
Speaker 6: Ladd?
Speaker 7: JSON or DJ or Jason?
Speaker 10: Just because if if.
Speaker 1: Json JSON hands down? Yeah? Well we however Lad played
Speaker 1: was how he played? But I'm huge on JSON. This
Speaker 1: week Viking is the most fantasy or second most fantasy
Speaker 1: or second most us A lot of give up a lot.
Speaker 1: I don't remember the exact it's that now my brain
Speaker 1: is fried, but it's a lot of a lot.
Speaker 4: Go.
Speaker 1: Jason's good A plus analysis right there. Skim milk? What's up? Milk?
Speaker 1: He needs some milk? What's up?
Speaker 16: How's it going?
Speaker 5: Guys?
Speaker 2: Great?
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got you. What do you got?
Speaker 2: Hello?
Speaker 1: Hello?
Speaker 16: Hey, how's it going?
Speaker 14: Sorry?
Speaker 1: They're good? That's all good? Shoot us with your question.
Speaker 16: So I'm very new to fantasy football. I appreciate you
Speaker 16: guys putting this on trying to learn as much as
Speaker 16: I can from you this week Week sixteen, I'm fourth
Speaker 16: seed versus first, and I think I'm gonna get cooked. Man,
Speaker 16: they have Lamar Jackson, Aaron Jones, Rashad Why. I'm basically
Speaker 16: I'm cooked right Bacific Pride. So my question is right,
Speaker 16: I'm trying to find like maybe maybe I'll get lucky,
Speaker 16: you know, with Ty Johnson. I'm looking to maybe start
Speaker 16: him over Tony Pollard. Tony's been really disappointing. So that's
Speaker 16: why I was like trying to see maybe uh you
Speaker 16: see some like potential there or no.
Speaker 1: Not over Pollard. It's just that I don't think you
Speaker 1: can do that. I think the upside I know what
Speaker 1: Ty Johnson did last week. The upside is Tony Pollard.
Speaker 1: The floor is Tony Pollard. Go with your gut. I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, outside of Lamar Jackson, you didn't list
Speaker 1: off names that make me think you're cooked. Maybe the
Speaker 1: projections are seeing you're cooked. But like Rashad White, isn't
Speaker 1: the definition of cooked. It's every flip a coin it
Speaker 1: lands on Tony Pollard thousand out of a thousand times
Speaker 1: to me Erickson, to Big disappointment. No, okay, you're with me.
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, as long as he plays like right,
Speaker 2: I know that he's banged up, he's been banged up.
Speaker 2: He basically doesn't practice like if they just like put
Speaker 2: him in bubble wrap till Sunday and uh, he's got
Speaker 2: a good matchup. Cold run defense is horrible except when
Speaker 2: they play the Broncos.
Speaker 1: So but hey, man, if you want, if you want
Speaker 1: an upside play, the upside might be a guy like
Speaker 1: Patrick Taylor. If Patrick Taylor still he might not be
Speaker 1: the news just happen as we're recording this, so you know,
Speaker 1: benefit to maybe the discord users. I would say Patrick
Speaker 1: Taylor is a better upside play with a forty nine
Speaker 1: ers team in what they can do with their run.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it'll work out, but if I didn't
Speaker 1: feel good about Tony Pollard and I had the option,
Speaker 1: I would take Patrick Taylor over a guy like Ty Johnson.
Speaker 1: You asking Ty Johnson means he's probably not available. And
Speaker 1: that's the guy. But there might be some others out there,
Speaker 1: you know, Kendre Miller getting the volume, you know, Jerome Ford.
Speaker 1: Those are the things I'm trying to pivot to if
Speaker 1: I'm trying to take some big upside shot. Just ain't
Speaker 1: Ty Johnson. That's all bucks man.
Speaker 9: Hey, so it's happy holidays.
Speaker 1: Happy holidays, man. What do you got?
Speaker 17: So two starts? Sick questions? I'm in the second round.
Speaker 17: I made it in as a four seed. Beat the
Speaker 17: guy last week by a hundred points. But this week
Speaker 17: I get to play the number one. See I was
Speaker 17: I have a running So two questions versus do we
Speaker 17: trust Terry McLaurin this week? If not, would you consider
Speaker 17: starting DJ Moore or DeAndre Hopkins over oh Erickson?
Speaker 1: I will let you quickly answer that one.
Speaker 2: Not over those guys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, now we go Terry. We're rolling Terry for sure.
Speaker 1: What was question number two?
Speaker 18: So question two is I'm going to roll three running
Speaker 18: backs out two and then one for my flex But
Speaker 18: I've got four to choose from. Uh, definitely going to
Speaker 18: start James Connor, Bucky Irvin, but I also have Jonathan
Speaker 18: Taylor and Ricodoudo as a bus fan. The only thing
Speaker 18: we're really good on defense is run defense, So I'm
Speaker 18: considering sitting Rico. But he's got over one hundred yards
Speaker 18: for like the past four games.
Speaker 9: So Jonathan Taylor, Ricododo.
Speaker 1: It's a great question. It's a good problem to have.
Speaker 1: What do you think, Erickson?
Speaker 2: Yeah, this one's interesting because the process last week was
Speaker 2: Rico Dado over Jonathan Taylor, and the results worked in
Speaker 2: our face. Ever, but we we got bailed out because
Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor gave away the touchdown he would have actually
Speaker 2: outscored we got dat.
Speaker 1: Can you ever believe we had two of those last week?
Speaker 1: The hell's going on? It's not the ball.
Speaker 2: I mean, they just get so excited thinking about what
Speaker 2: they want to do.
Speaker 1: Don't get so excited.
Speaker 2: Bring back, bring back the guys that just give them
Speaker 2: all to the rev.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like the old Barry subtle. Yeah, it's old
Speaker 1: Barry Sanders thing, Like I get, like celebrate, think about
Speaker 1: all the hold on to the ball through the end zone.
Speaker 1: Why does everybody have to drop it so quick to
Speaker 1: try to like get some Instagram shot that's gonna look cool.
Speaker 1: Hold on to the stupid ball so you score a touchdown? Geez.
Speaker 2: So I have them ranked back to back, and I
Speaker 2: think bucks Man brings up a good point about how Tampa.
Speaker 2: You know, they do try to sell out to quote
Speaker 2: unquote stop the run. But that really hasn't worked a
Speaker 2: lot this year, and when you stack the box it
Speaker 2: can lead to big runs because you're kind of over
Speaker 2: pursuing or overplaying your hand. And Dad has just been
Speaker 2: on fire man. But I don't like hate Taylor. It's
Speaker 2: like he sees all the work in his backfield. It
Speaker 2: should be a close game begeing him and the Titans.
Speaker 2: Things have been a better run defense too this year.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm not like, I don't feel super
Speaker 2: strongly either way. Do you see it differently? You like, hey,
Speaker 2: Rico's on fire, just roll with Rico? Or do you
Speaker 2: think JT can bounce back? I mean, you should have
Speaker 2: had a good game last week. I mean he had
Speaker 2: over a hundred rushing yards. You just didn't score, which
Speaker 2: he should have. So do you have a stronger lean?
Speaker 1: It's not stronger. I think you really. You said it
Speaker 1: really well. By the way they're ranked next to each other,
Speaker 1: Rico's thirteen, Jonathan Taylor's fourteen. I think I would lean
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor in this, but I think your goalding either way.
Speaker 1: I mean when you look at some of these, we
Speaker 1: have an efficiency report that's on there, and Jonathan Taylor's
Speaker 1: efficiency is bad. It's poor. It says Jonathan Taylor is
Speaker 1: poor in the red zone converting his opportunities into touchdowns.
Speaker 1: It's below league average, where Rico Daddle has an advantage there.
Speaker 1: The matchup rating is in favor of Taylor, but the
Speaker 1: projected points are half a point higher for Rico. So
Speaker 1: I know it's a flip coin flip situation and hate
Speaker 1: to give you kind of an indifferent thing. I guess
Speaker 1: I would lean Taylor. Sounds like you're leaning Rico Doudele.
Speaker 1: I think they're really really close, and I think at
Speaker 1: this point you should definitely go with your gut because
Speaker 1: they're so close. But I don't feel adamant about it.
Speaker 2: I think, you know, I think I'm gonna be I
Speaker 2: think we're gonna go with Taylor. I think I think
Speaker 2: he's going to bounce back. I mean, I'm just looking
Speaker 2: at ECR hasn't once spot ahead, so like he's straying
Speaker 2: to head an ECR and the projections have him had two,
Speaker 2: So I think there's enough. And I gotta imagine, man,
Speaker 2: like he's got to be motivated for a big game, like,
Speaker 2: I mean, he basically left his team at the dry
Speaker 2: last week, right, yeah, like all the momentum shifted in
Speaker 2: that game, he's still I mean, he's the only hope
Speaker 2: the Colts have an offense really because I think they Richardson.
Speaker 2: So I bet and if he scores a touchdown, I'm
Speaker 2: sure that his celebration will do something very important about Hey,
Speaker 2: I made it in with the ball.
Speaker 1: Should be no celebration. It should be hold on to
Speaker 1: it all the way until you get to the bench.
Speaker 2: He should do the baby cradle one. That's what you
Speaker 2: should do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what was that movie with the guy he like
Speaker 1: he held the foot I was like in college and
Speaker 1: he just held the football at all times high school
Speaker 1: or whatever?
Speaker 2: Oh that I think I don't talk about. I know that, Like,
Speaker 2: wasn't it lights? No, it was like I don't remember
Speaker 2: what moved on to help us out?
Speaker 1: Yeah, somebody tell us now. But that's what he should do.
Speaker 1: He never let go of the ball ever, ever, ever,
Speaker 1: especially when you're near the and son.
Speaker 2: All right, so JT JT for us, it's close, but
Speaker 2: we're going back to JT again. The process worked out.
Speaker 2: I mean JJ should have score outscored DOWT last week.
Speaker 2: He didn't. We got lucky. This week. We're going back
Speaker 2: to it.
Speaker 1: We're back, Sir Buckets Royalty in the house. Hello, Sir Buckets.
Speaker 9: Fells.
Speaker 1: Sorry the lunch break, it's all good. We'll finish your
Speaker 1: food and well. I do a pretty good trumpet. By
Speaker 1: the way, do you like my Erickson? Do you like
Speaker 1: my trumpet? Sound good? It's pretty good. What's up?
Speaker 4: Man?
Speaker 1: Are you done eating?
Speaker 15: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, So I have a question for my flex. So
Speaker 5: two of the four I need I have Amari Cooper,
Speaker 5: DeAndre Hopkins debo, and Michael Pittman.
Speaker 1: I mean, buddy, that's that is like a murderer brow
Speaker 1: of the worst choices on the planet.
Speaker 2: One of the odds. Cooper gets back to back, gains
Speaker 2: zero targets pretty high. I'll just bills receiver. We got
Speaker 2: picked two.
Speaker 1: Man, This is like usual suspects of a lineup of
Speaker 1: like no Hopkins revenge game. Absolutely not, you know, I'll
Speaker 1: go depot, yep, going debot running game. DeAndre Hopkins stinks,
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean it was bad. Weather stinks awful.
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman, you imagine I don't know what see what
Speaker 1: the ring to be agreed with Cooper though, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: guess that's fine. It's a big old nothing, absolute disappointment,
Speaker 1: ruining bets last week. But sure the CR has this pile.
Speaker 1: You know how far I have to scroll down? Oh
Speaker 1: my god?
Speaker 2: And these guys are all like forties.
Speaker 1: Thirty eight for Hopkins. So the East ECR says.
Speaker 2: I say Hopkins and Cooper, It says.
Speaker 1: Hopkins and Samuel. Where the hell is Cooper hanging with me?
Speaker 1: Cooper is the bottom, Pittman is forty three, Cooper is
Speaker 1: forty five. Best matchup goes to Cooper.
Speaker 2: Though, Look, this is what a Mark Cooper does is
Speaker 2: part of the experience, and it sucks but awful. I mean,
Speaker 2: you have to imagine he's gonna level out between fourteen
Speaker 2: and zero target.
Speaker 1: What is the experience of a Mari Cooper? What is
Speaker 1: this you're trying to tell?
Speaker 2: Roller coaster? Dude, roller coaster?
Speaker 1: This is like driving, This is like this a car
Speaker 1: crash or I don't even know what the positive for
Speaker 1: Mark Cooper is? I guess I Patriots, How did he
Speaker 1: make the playoffs with that core? What are the other
Speaker 1: wide receivers that have to be amazing?
Speaker 2: To flex questions?
Speaker 1: Two flexes? He had two? Though some credible you must
Speaker 1: incredible start and sit there. Uh, dwan.
Speaker 7: Hey, guys, can you hear me?
Speaker 1: Yes? Perfect, don't have to help.
Speaker 7: I got two quick start sick questions. My first question is,
Speaker 7: I'm deciding between Drake London and Bucky Irving for a
Speaker 7: little context, I'm a fifteen point favorite and I'm and
Speaker 7: I also have Djon Robinson Bucky.
Speaker 1: Bucky touchdown Bucky. That's will I answer that one?
Speaker 2: Next question, yep, Nicks.
Speaker 7: Gotcha Terry McLaurin or James and Taylor also in a
Speaker 7: full point gpr.
Speaker 1: Oh Jonathan, you say Jonathan Taylor? Yeah, okay, yeah Taylor.
Speaker 1: If you do hate the McLaurin matchup like a lot,
Speaker 1: I know it's rated really bad.
Speaker 2: No, I think that it's I think that. I mean,
Speaker 2: look like there are situations where, like I mean, you
Speaker 2: have to acknowledge it, like he's not an auto start
Speaker 2: this week, I would say, because like, okay, well, if
Speaker 2: it's him versus Johnathan Taylor, okay, easy, Like Jonathan Taylor mccorn.
Speaker 2: I mean, he has a tougher matchup, like no doubt,
Speaker 2: but it's not one of these where you have to
Speaker 2: mention no matter what, and you're like, do I go
Speaker 2: McLaurin or McMillan, right, like that could be someone might
Speaker 2: pose that type of question, like I would still go
Speaker 2: with mclaorran in that situation. Yeah, but I mean he's
Speaker 2: definitely lower. I mean he's lower in the rankings this
Speaker 2: week for a reason, Like he was on inside the
Speaker 2: top ten last week and now he's I think outside
Speaker 2: the top fifteen.
Speaker 1: All right, let's try to go back to our muted
Speaker 1: boys here land the man? Take two?
Speaker 19: Am I doing this time?
Speaker 5: There?
Speaker 9: It is?
Speaker 1: What's up? Lane? Awesome?
Speaker 19: Thanks for circling back, guys, appreciate that we got you
Speaker 19: running back questions. I think you answered part of it
Speaker 19: already with the previous question, but I got I'm throwing
Speaker 19: the names in the chat as well. Breis Hall, Brian
Speaker 19: Robinson Junior, Jerome Ford, and Patrick Taylor. And I need
Speaker 19: advice on your top two or three?
Speaker 1: Do you need to start for this? Want us to
Speaker 1: rank it? Or like how many do you need to start?
Speaker 9: I need to start?
Speaker 19: I mean I could start three, but I think my
Speaker 19: flex I got Jawn Jennings in my flex, so just
Speaker 19: probably two?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Juwan Jennings, Maybe what do you think first two?
Speaker 2: For men?
Speaker 1: And so brief and Brian Robinson. All right, Jerome for
Speaker 1: Ford is right there. I love Jerome Ford. I actually
Speaker 1: think I might have Jerome Ford over Brian Robinson this week.
Speaker 1: I do so. Yeah, my answer is Jerome Ford and
Speaker 1: Breecee Hall. But Brian Robinson's safer if you want to
Speaker 1: do that. It's Eagles though, ye don't love that.
Speaker 2: It's Drian Toddson Robinson.
Speaker 1: True, but the Bengals are the worst. Well, we don't.
Speaker 1: We just don't. We just don't agree. Yeah, we don't
Speaker 1: agree on Drome Ford. This week's done trying one more time?
Speaker 1: You there, yo, hello, can you be what's up?
Speaker 2: What's dude?
Speaker 4: There?
Speaker 2: We are? Okay?
Speaker 20: So I have to start sick questions, so I can
Speaker 20: I have to start three wide receivers. It's full PPR.
Speaker 20: You have to sit one Drake London, A J. Brown,
Speaker 20: elite neighbors or George Pickens. Who are you sitting Pickens?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Pickens easy and Pickens probably not gonna even play. I
Speaker 1: know he did practice today, he was doing some solo work,
Speaker 1: but with him banged up to and I mean the
Speaker 1: Ravens you can throw against, but it's Pickens no matter what.
Speaker 20: So okay, and then what are we thinking about Jordan Love?
Speaker 20: They're playing in Green Bay and it's supposed to be
Speaker 20: sleating out there. Would you guys play someone like Cooper
Speaker 20: Rush or Matthew Stafford or would you just stick with Love?
Speaker 1: Yeah, FITZI does not love Love this week? Don't love
Speaker 1: the sleet? Sleet, sleet? What do you think? Ericson?
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna play Jordan Love because he's playing in conditions.
Speaker 2: I mean, who you think is gonna play better? And sleet?
Speaker 2: The Packers are the Dome team, Like, I just think
Speaker 2: that the Packers are going to score so many points
Speaker 2: AND's the Saints and I just have to imagine George
Speaker 2: Love is going to do something in that. So if
Speaker 2: the score forty and he somehow does absolutely nothing, then
Speaker 2: so be it.
Speaker 1: But Josh Jacob's been pretty good lately.
Speaker 2: He has been Jordan could also throw four touchdowns in
Speaker 2: the red zone. I was like, hey, let's throw it.
Speaker 2: We gotta get Romeo dobss touchdowns, right.
Speaker 1: I hope he doesn't like that too. He's like, hey, guys,
Speaker 1: let's just do it. Okay, I have Love hire if
Speaker 1: I did, I would go to Stafford. What would you
Speaker 1: go with? Oh? Well, no, I know, but I said
Speaker 1: of Cooper Rush or Stafford if you weren't Stafford. Oh okay,
Speaker 1: you agree with that. You got all quiet, you got
Speaker 1: all like love, loving you Nick. What's up?
Speaker 21: Hey, guys, I got two questions for you both. For
Speaker 21: one of them, breathe hall Tyrone, Tracy warderome forward as
Speaker 21: a flex spot. And then the second question would be
Speaker 21: I have to start two guys, one as a running back,
Speaker 21: one is a flex in another league. I'm picking between
Speaker 21: Bucky Irving, Cuba Breese and neighbor Jason. I know a
Speaker 21: lot of big names.
Speaker 1: There, but so I'm sorry. The second one, I think
Speaker 1: it was the two running backs, right, Cuba and Irving. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then.
Speaker 2: They start the running backs, and then I would start
Speaker 2: Breese the question.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Breese on the first one, and then Irving
Speaker 1: and Cuba on the second one. Though I do love
Speaker 1: some Jayson pretty close, pretty close in there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you gotta take a rhyme backs you do.
Speaker 1: You're speaking truths. That's one hundred percent. Friends, this is
Speaker 1: your opportunity because I know you love us. I know
Speaker 1: you guys. You love Ericson people.
Speaker 2: You know Ericson.
Speaker 1: I love you. Thank you Ericson. Everybody loves that. If
Speaker 1: you really love Ericson, if you like me, you have

Speaker 1: I am so happy that Welsh was here. The improvement
Speaker 1: of the podcast is solely dedicated to Chris Welsh. Those
Speaker 1: are just suggestions. You don't have to do that, but
Speaker 1: those could be something you could also say, like Ericson
Speaker 1: is pretty smart and stuff like that, handsome, whatever you want.

Speaker 1: dot com slash slash survey. What would you think about
Speaker 1: my suggestions? Erics And you think those are good ones?
Speaker 2: I do impressive, specifically that.
Speaker 1: You're a handsome one or that I was like a
Speaker 1: great addition. Handsome by the way I saw him. You well,
Speaker 1: your personal stuff and used to be a bodybuilder Erickson
Speaker 1: posting some old stuff I got to see on some socials.
Speaker 1: Pretty impressive, pretty impressive looking, uh looking buddy there that
Speaker 1: Erickson was.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're telling me, and it's uh sad just to
Speaker 2: look back on it and be like, man, I was
Speaker 2: a beast.
Speaker 1: Litt old beast Erickson. What Erickson would whoop you? Just
Speaker 1: whoever's out there Ericson would will whoop you? He he
Speaker 1: was the dude. All right, Uh, we are near the end,
Speaker 1: not like we have a lot in the cue, so
Speaker 1: we will kind of lightning around some of this, so
Speaker 1: we can try to get to you guys.
Speaker 9: All so.
Speaker 1: Lightning I know me specifically, all right, but we'll try
Speaker 1: because we want to try to get to everybody. S
Speaker 1: Van shoot, Hello, hello, hello.
Speaker 2: Oh So I got two questions. First, out of the
Speaker 2: three guys.
Speaker 17: Start to t Higgins, Drake London and Juwan Jennings, Higgins.
Speaker 1: And Henning Hennings Hens.
Speaker 2: Yes, Higgins and Jennings. That's what you want, is trying to.
Speaker 1: Sit one instead of start to sit London. Yes. Second question,
Speaker 1: I agreed.
Speaker 2: So Grendo's out this week. Would you rather start Brian
Speaker 2: Robinson or Marvin Harrison?
Speaker 1: Brian Robinson, Yeah, never suggests Marvin Harrison.
Speaker 2: He's going to be very interesting about next year's drafts.
Speaker 1: Nope, yeah, very interesting late in drafts next year. Nice
Speaker 1: and late girth. You got to hit the accept.
Speaker 3: Button the e OP team, thank you for the survey thoughts.
Speaker 3: Starter is very helpful. I'm gonna drop some of these
Speaker 3: suckers and the chat here. It's a couple of quick questions.
Speaker 3: So the running back I lost Montgomery very sad and
Speaker 3: I got uh Tyrone Tracy. He's questionable, but he also
Speaker 3: has kind of a tougher matchup against the running defense
Speaker 3: the Falcons. So it's like, all right, is it Spears,
Speaker 3: Madison or Taylor.
Speaker 1: I don't know what do you guys think? I think
Speaker 1: that the Taylor the Tracy one is super interesting because
Speaker 1: I think he's right next to Taylor. I think I
Speaker 1: might lean Taylor on this one.
Speaker 2: Erickson, I mean, you play Spears if Polter doesn't play,
Speaker 2: So that's.
Speaker 1: Okay, agreed. If Polly doesn't play, it's Spears. If Polly
Speaker 1: does play, is it Taylor over Tracy?
Speaker 2: I'm playing. I'm playing Tracy, all right. I think that
Speaker 2: his matchups not as bad as people are making out today,
Speaker 2: and I don't think the Falcons the defense is very
Speaker 2: good town Tracy. The last time he saw Drew Locke play,
Speaker 2: he had ten targets in a game he loves.
Speaker 1: Loves Devin Singletary though, love Devin Singletary in the red zone.
Speaker 3: Okay, good point. And then the wide receivers. So kind
Speaker 3: of like ranking these guys. I'm putting in Mike Evans
Speaker 3: for sure, but then I got another spot and it's like,
Speaker 3: do I go Jennings McMillan has a good matchup Wilson.
Speaker 3: I want to believe in him, but the Jets and
Speaker 3: the relationship with Rogers I just never can quite figure out.
Speaker 3: So it feels always like a roll of the dice.
Speaker 3: But that lineup, what are you thinking?
Speaker 1: It's yeah, we both handled gender. And then you had
Speaker 1: a quarterback ceiling Lamar. You had a Lamar question, answers Lamar,
Speaker 1: It's got to be Lamar unless you bring Josh Allen here.
Speaker 1: I'll take all the l's. It's fine. It's Lamar m
Speaker 1: and would the shots? I like that name?
Speaker 4: Hi, So I guess my question would be, would you
Speaker 4: boo in injured Mahomes over god.
Speaker 1: Ooh I love that for Eric. You said yes, yep,
Speaker 1: I would too. You know how excited if if there
Speaker 1: is Oh. I don't want to say. I'm just hoping.
Speaker 1: I'm really holding myself back sometimes I have to remember
Speaker 1: I got to hold myself back on some things that
Speaker 1: I say. All I want in the world is for
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes to get knocked down and his players to
Speaker 1: pick him up and carry him like Byron Leftwich. It's
Speaker 1: all I'm asking in the world. I don't want to
Speaker 1: get into specifics of what I was going to say.
Speaker 1: But all I want in the world for Christmas is
Speaker 1: Patrick mallhomes to get held up and just have that
Speaker 1: moment to hold. I would also go Patrick Mahomes here,
Speaker 1: it's his Jordan game. They're gonna let us know all
Speaker 1: week and long ATV.
Speaker 2: Hey up, guys, what's up doing? All right? Man?
Speaker 15: I'm I made both playoffs in both of my leagues.
Speaker 15: One I was the first seed and the other one
Speaker 15: I was actually the last seed, and I won last
Speaker 15: week because the poor accidentally had a couple of players
Speaker 15: from the Rams and forty nine ers game, so good
Speaker 15: for me.
Speaker 1: So let's see.
Speaker 15: So I'm kind of having trouble at wide receiver because
Speaker 15: I've honestly been having trouble all season. I have DJ Moore,
Speaker 15: Feeling and McMillan, and I'm not even gonna bring up
Speaker 15: Reader Pickens. So out of all those, would you still
Speaker 15: start DJ Moore and Feeling or maybe would you put
Speaker 15: in McMillan over theling.
Speaker 2: What're we think it?
Speaker 1: I'm still feeling and I'm McMillan's is sit there for me?
Speaker 2: Yeah, those two guys are way too much volume versus
Speaker 2: McMillan agreed.
Speaker 15: Yeah, that's what I was thinking and then for the defense,
Speaker 15: Herbert is still playing. Would you still start Broncos defense
Speaker 15: or would you start maybe Colts defense?
Speaker 1: What do you think? I'm leaving this on you. I'm
Speaker 1: throwing this on Ericson.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would. I would swap to Colds defense because
Speaker 2: you can also then play the next week too. Eight
Speaker 2: they're facing the Giants. The Chargers also have a good
Speaker 2: defor you said, and the Broncos play the Bengals next week,
Speaker 2: so you don't want to have them on your team,
Speaker 2: so drop them now?
Speaker 1: Yes? Uh, skim milk. Did we have Skim before? Did
Speaker 1: Skim come back? Yep, we already had skin. Oh, Skim's
Speaker 1: just trying to get back on. Get out of here.
Speaker 1: Come on, let's try, sorry, try to sneak in there?
Speaker 1: Id you sneak in there? Wyatt? Did it work?
Speaker 4: Hey?
Speaker 9: Can you guys here?
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got you, We got you? Okay, perfect?
Speaker 12: Sorry, first time doing this and I'm on my cell
Speaker 12: phone at work about I got two start questions for you?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 12: You guys seem to not want to talk a lot
Speaker 12: about Jade and Daniels throughout the even though he's got
Speaker 12: a terrible matchup he does.
Speaker 2: Are we going with Jane Daniels.
Speaker 12: Yeah, let's hear it, Tyler Murray or the one I'm
Speaker 12: not supposed to ask about who might or may or
Speaker 12: may not play tonight.
Speaker 2: All right, now, that person's not not considered.
Speaker 1: Not even in the discussion of completely I'm playing.
Speaker 2: I would play Kyler or Jane Daels. I would too.
Speaker 1: I'm comfortable with it, Caroline.
Speaker 12: An incredible matchup, Yeah, all right, perfect? And then I
Speaker 12: got a loaded one with running back and maybe a flex.
Speaker 12: Right now, I got Cuba Hubbard and Chase Brown and
Speaker 12: my starting RB spots, and then I have Rico in
Speaker 12: the flex. I got Kenneth Walker slash Charbonnay on the bench,
Speaker 12: and or I could flex Jaden Reid or McMillan.
Speaker 1: Are those placement of Rico? Oh no, no, you roll
Speaker 1: with Rico there, Rico? Yeah? Yeah, for sure? Becca, Hi, Becca,
Speaker 1: can you hear me?
Speaker 12: Okay?
Speaker 4: So I have two questions. I am currently having Alvin
Speaker 4: Kamara and Shuba Hubbards start as my running back with
Speaker 4: Alva Kamara possibly being out. My other options are Rico, Daddell,
Speaker 4: Jerome Ford, and Pollard. Who would you start if not Kamara?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kamara is definitely not going to play, I would
Speaker 1: go I think we Ericson we both say Rico here.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I would play Pollard though if he's healthy.
Speaker 1: If he's healthy, you would go Pollard over Rico. Yes, okay,
Speaker 1: so that's so follow that then I'm cool with that.
Speaker 1: I think I would. I personally lean Rico regardless. But
Speaker 1: that's the Ericson answer as well. What was your other question, Beaca, So.
Speaker 4: I'm starting Jefferson and Puka and for flex, I was
Speaker 4: wondering if I should do Jennings or btj.
Speaker 1: Oh I was. I was so ready to be like Jennings. No,
Speaker 1: I have Brian Thomas as my tenth overall wide receiver
Speaker 1: this week, I gotta go against my boy. I may
Speaker 1: be the soothsayer, but it's a Brian Thomas week over
Speaker 1: Juwan Jennings for sure. So oh no. Uh so, I'm
Speaker 1: so sorry, Greta. I just hit X on it. Re
Speaker 1: raise your hand and I will get you right back up.
Speaker 1: That is my bad. I meant to hit except to
Speaker 1: invite you to speak, and I kicked you away now
Speaker 1: unmute and we have hit pay dirt.
Speaker 2: Okay, am I good?
Speaker 1: We got you?
Speaker 4: Hi?
Speaker 1: Sorry about that, that's all good.
Speaker 21: I have a flex question. I need to start one
Speaker 21: between Darnell Mooney because if you're worthy or Jaylen McMillan.
Speaker 1: I love money after the donut.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because this is this is again, this is the
Speaker 2: circle of life with these receivers. You donut one week
Speaker 2: and then you go off the next. Michael pennocks Baby Giants.
Speaker 2: Did we see what we're showing? Baby? Did the Giants
Speaker 2: last week?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: That's Darnah Mooney this week?
Speaker 1: I mean Penix speaks to Darnell Mooney. Penix is a
Speaker 1: nice deep ball thrower with accurate see but see, Greta said,
Speaker 1: the donut scares me. Scares the hell out of me too.
Speaker 2: Well, hey, you know who donutd this week? Amari Cooper
Speaker 2: after he had fourteen targets.
Speaker 1: So like, man, you're not making a good case here.
Speaker 1: What's your point? Like he's gonna do that?
Speaker 2: Saying that we felt great about Cooper going into last week.
Speaker 2: Guy had fourteen targets, He's playing a shootout and then
Speaker 2: he got zero? Like, is is darnovan? He really gonna
Speaker 2: get zero targets back to back games?
Speaker 1: What was the other one it was, McMillan, what was
Speaker 1: the other option? It was McMillan, Oh, worthy, under worthy,
Speaker 1: I don't know worthy.
Speaker 2: Worthy, you know what, but no ceiling.
Speaker 1: I think it is Moon. Okay, I think McMillan is
Speaker 1: your floor play. If you're like, you know, hey, I
Speaker 1: just need to hold points and stuff like that. If
Speaker 1: you're looking for the upside, it is Mooney, Like Pennix.
Speaker 2: They are going to It's kind of happ dude. They're
Speaker 2: gonna do literally, the first play of the game is
Speaker 2: gonna be hard play action. They're gonna rip an eighty
Speaker 2: yard touchdown of Mooney like and they're like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: it's so good. You know what that means, dude. There's
Speaker 2: two things the kirk Cousins on the sideline, he's gonna
Speaker 2: have his helme and on There's.
Speaker 1: Two things we have to do. Then then we have
Speaker 1: to bet reception on the first drive for Darnell Mooney.
Speaker 1: And then we have to bet first touchdown.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, I'm all over first touchdowns.
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 1: Okay, where are we at? We go super lightning round,
Speaker 1: horrible at this. You're very welcome. Brought in Ben one
Speaker 1: question allow, yeah, one.
Speaker 16: What go gentlemen, long time listener, You got me there,
Speaker 16: we got you what do you got all right?
Speaker 19: Between Grindo, Jerry Judy and Brian Robinson in my flex
Speaker 19: full PPR.
Speaker 1: Well, you don't have to worry about Grinda. He is
Speaker 1: not going to play so Brian Robinson, Yeah exactly. Jerry Judy,
Speaker 1: well dtr though, remember exactly. Yeah, mooks, what's up? Mooks?

Speaker 9: Yeah, DeVante Smith, Breeze, Shuba mixing Rico.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you just sit mixing. I don't want
Speaker 2: to deal with it.
Speaker 1: Everybody hates mixing.
Speaker 2: This week he's going to be mixing or Smith.
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna sit Smith. Yeah, I don't mean.
Speaker 1: It's one of.
Speaker 2: Those things where it's like I kind of want to
Speaker 2: like just be like, yeah, I honestly, I think I
Speaker 2: just hit mixing. I just like all the other guys better.
Speaker 2: It's like mixing is a terrible matchup, like he's been
Speaker 2: treading in the wrong direction. The Texans office is gross. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think he's injured.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna sit Smith. But I I think there's
Speaker 1: a lot of support that's backing, sitting mixing. It's like
Speaker 1: a horrific matchup. I just can't do it. It's it's
Speaker 1: volume rock. Hey, guys, first time, long time question for you.
Speaker 19: Start Malik Neighbor, sorry sit Melik neighbors, Brian Robinson Junior
Speaker 19: or Terry McLaurin.
Speaker 1: You have the two commanders, guys, and crap, you just
Speaker 1: you deleted it from my brain.
Speaker 2: I'm taking b rob over McLaurin.
Speaker 1: Well, it was set one, so it was mclauren was the.
Speaker 2: I just need to know who the other.
Speaker 1: The first person was the first thing he said, help us,
Speaker 1: Rock is typing in it. I feel like it was
Speaker 1: the I wanted.
Speaker 12: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 1: One mclauren. Yeah, yeah, okay, all right, Look well that's
Speaker 1: out of this, b Dev. We're gonna get you all.
Speaker 1: That's how we roll, so Dev.
Speaker 5: Can you hear me?
Speaker 1: We got you?
Speaker 4: Hey?
Speaker 1: What's going on, guys? Just real quick?
Speaker 22: I have some bad players to decide for a flex,
Speaker 22: looking at McLeod Tolbert, Tim Patrick, Juwan Johnson or Stone
Speaker 22: Smart and then if Gino is out, do I want
Speaker 22: to start Rudolph or Ritter or one of those guys know, yeah.
Speaker 2: It's Christmas and does murder not starting anyway?
Speaker 1: All Christmas theme on? Tim Patrick?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm found all right.
Speaker 1: Good you're Late Pizza Premium. A couple of Last Premium
Speaker 1: members in the chat here Late Pizza relative to you
Speaker 1: know who that character as wells, Yes they do. It's Michelangelo.
Speaker 1: I grew up on Ninja Turtles. You don't know, Ninja Turtles.
Speaker 1: That was what I grew up on. Teenage mute in
Speaker 1: Ninja Turtles, teenage mutant Ninja Turtles, Turtles in a half
Speaker 1: shell ericson Turtle Power. Okay, that was actually good. That's Michael.
Speaker 2: Who did we just have on? Was Thates?
Speaker 13: What? No?
Speaker 2: I just got bunked?
Speaker 1: You hit the unmute button Late Pizza. Oh can you
Speaker 1: figure it out?
Speaker 2: Three?
Speaker 1: It's Cowabunga, dude, we want.
Speaker 13: To get you on.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's saying Tim Patrick or Jalen Cocher. I would
Speaker 2: do Coker in that position.
Speaker 13: I can't.
Speaker 2: I would do.
Speaker 3: I would Cooker, I would I would still go with
Speaker 3: the other person because I hate I just hate all
Speaker 3: things lions.
Speaker 1: You do hate all things Schmidt. Let's finish gids.
Speaker 2: You got me?
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got too.
Speaker 2: Man cool, cool, just a quick start. Sick question. Am
Speaker 2: I starting Mahomes or do I take a start on
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers versus the Rams this weekend?
Speaker 12: Oh?
Speaker 1: I liked the Aaron Rodgers one. I got him a
Speaker 1: little bit higher this week from that streaming side you
Speaker 1: can throw on the Rams. He is ranked sixteen. Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes is currently ranked twentieth. I think I would be
Speaker 1: cool with with Rogers over Mahomes. What say you?
Speaker 8: Though?
Speaker 2: This one is tough for me because everything of my
Speaker 2: being says I have to play Mahomes. Ever, like I
Speaker 2: can't live with myself I play Rogers over Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 1: That's such a great point.
Speaker 2: Like I'm not I think that it's brand Rodgers is
Speaker 2: a fine start this week. Everything suggests like, hey, this
Speaker 2: is a good spot for him Rams defense. But I mean,
Speaker 2: I have the rank back to back, I have ma
Speaker 2: Homes one spot ahead. If it was me, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go down with the ship with Mahomes because I just
Speaker 2: don't trust Aaron Rodgers. But I'm not gonna it's It's
Speaker 2: tough for me. I don't feel like I have a
Speaker 2: good read on this particular start. Sick question. Mahomes.
Speaker 1: But that's a great way to say it. I'm glad
Speaker 1: you said it like that because I guess if I
Speaker 1: were doing it, I would be putting Patrick Mahomes out
Speaker 1: there for the same logic. But I think there's logic
Speaker 1: if you're super uncomfortable to start rogers, but I personally
Speaker 1: would also probably start Mahomes. Ninja Turtle rank, who's your
Speaker 1: top ninja turtle? You have to think about it?
Speaker 2: Oh my god. First, some reason I thought you were
Speaker 2: asking someone in the chat just you and need ninja
Speaker 2: turtle rank, like that was their name.
Speaker 1: Wait, let me guess.
Speaker 10: Let me do this.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess you're Ninja Turtle. I want you to
Speaker 1: guess my Ninja turtle you are.
Speaker 2: You have to face my number one.
Speaker 1: You are definitely a Michelangelo guy.
Speaker 2: My number one mind.
Speaker 1: Sorry I didn't let you guess mine too. Raphael number one.
Speaker 1: I like.
Speaker 2: I like the how he is, like the I don't
Speaker 2: even know what he has, like that angst right about it,
Speaker 2: and he's like I don't want to be the leader,
Speaker 2: but like I know I'm capable of being the leader.
Speaker 2: Like he's the only one that kind of challenges like
Speaker 2: the other two like I don't want to say like
Speaker 2: their followers, but they follow Leo like Leo's the leader,
Speaker 2: but Ralph is the one that Ralph rap is the
Speaker 2: one that challenges Leo. And I think that there's like
Speaker 2: a again similar like how I like Shadow and and
Speaker 2: Knuckles right like they rival Sonic and yeah, like that's
Speaker 2: kind of I've always kind of been gravitated towards those
Speaker 2: types of characters in India, So like Rap for me
Speaker 2: and and Donna Tell's probably last.
Speaker 1: Is there anybody more worthless than Donna Tello?
Speaker 2: That's the worst repend. It's like a stick, like they.
Speaker 1: Literally just kept him because they had to keep with
Speaker 1: their like artists, so.
Speaker 2: They also needed a buddy for Michelangelo to like laugh
Speaker 2: at his jokes.
Speaker 1: I don't know, he is the most worthless dot. He
Speaker 1: is so worthless maybe of all time, maybe of all time.
Speaker 2: By the way, Chad Don is the brain.
Speaker 1: I mean, give me a brak Ninja turtles, by the way,
Speaker 1: the pizza shooter toy from the nineties, all time toy,
Speaker 1: greatest toy of on the planet, those little disc He
Speaker 1: probably didn't have a little disc pizzas that shot it
Speaker 1: out A plus if I was still a child and
Speaker 1: I could ask for that for Christmas. I would ask
Speaker 1: for that for Christmas. This year, I'm an adult, though,
Speaker 1: I will absolutely receive nothing. I got some I got
Speaker 1: a box of popcorn from a company, and that's probably
Speaker 1: what I'll get for Christmas. But I would ask for
Speaker 1: the Ninja Turtle Pizza Shooter All time present. There you go,
Speaker 1: that is it could probably keep extending this now that
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about the presence and stuff like that. We
Speaker 1: love you, guys. Have a great holiday. Whatever it is
Speaker 1: you celebrate, you do. Enjoy some time with a family,
