1
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: We got based, we got horns, we got to start them.

2
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: Sitting show for week fifteen. Welcome everybody. I am Marcus Grant,

3
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: joined by Michael F. Florio out there in the ether.

4
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 1: It's the specialist who help us put on this show

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,759
Speaker 1: each and every day, each and every week. And here

6
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: it is Mike. We have made it to the start

7
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 1: of the Fantasy playoffs Week fifteen, a big one. So

8
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: if you are still watching the show, congratulations, it needs

9
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 1: you probably are in your fantasy postseason. And if you're

10
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: not and you're still watching, guess, But we thank you

11
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: for your support, and we hope that we are just

12
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: entertaining and informing you. But how are we feeling about

13
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: this playoff season? Because now, I mean it was sort

14
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,880
Speaker 1: of real before. Now it's like super super real. Yeah.

15
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 1: And I had a bunch of stuff go wrong for

16
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 1: me on Monday night, Like I had one league where

17
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: I needed twenty points out of Kyler Murray, Montrey Stevenson,

18
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: Marquis Brown and Hunter Henry combined to get a buy

19
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: and I didn't get it. So now having like three

20
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: leagues that I thought I was gonna secure buy in

21
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 1: that I didn't, I'm I'm stressed today. Yeah, it's gonna

22
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: be stressful for a whole lot of people. But that's

23
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: what we're here for, is to try and alleviate as

24
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: much of that stress as we can with our starts

25
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: and our sits. Of course, you can check out Florio's

26
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: column every single week at NFL dot com slash start sits.

27
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: So we'll get into some of them here. We got

28
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: plenty to go through as we go through the top

29
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: starts and sits four week fifteen, we got our trending players,

30
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: the guys that deserve more high and of course the

31
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: guys that are gonna get you into Club dub But

32
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,199
Speaker 1: he guaranteed five points. But let's start with our startup

33
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: sitting quarterbacks four week fifteen. Who's on the list this week?

34
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: Justin Fields, I don't care about the matchup. I'm still

35
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: starting him, Dak Prescott and a great opportunity against the Jaguars.

36
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, who's been playing great again. I love his

37
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: matchup against the Titans. And I'm still willing to trust

38
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins against the Colts this week. And I think

39
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: Mike White is a very strong streaming option. Uh some sits.

40
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: Jared Goff on the road against the tough Jets defense,

41
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: and Derek Carr against the Patriots Tom Brady, who's just

42
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: it's been a struggle for Brady this year. And then

43
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones against the Commanders. So let's start with Dak Prescott,

44
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: who he's going against the Jacksonville Jaguars, who have been

45
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: a really nice soft target for a lot of opposing quarterbacks.

46
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: It looked like Dak was starting to heat up, but

47
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: kind of had a rough one last week against the

48
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: Houston Texans. But again, this just feels like a matchup

49
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: that's hard to avoid considering how bad the Jaguars secondary

50
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: has been. Yeah, it's exactly that. Like I know, Dak

51
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: Prescott has struggled the last couple of weeks in fantasy football,

52
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: and the frustrating part is like how boys keep winning,

53
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: so like why would they really change things up? But

54
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: this week against the Jacks. They have allowed the six

55
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 1: most fantasy points per game the quarterbacks in the last month,

56
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: and since Week six, the only quarterback to face them

57
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: and not finished top twelve, making them a QB one

58
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: in that week was Russell Wilson. Even Ryan Tannehill, I

59
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: don't care that it came in garbage time, and he

60
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: kind of backdoored his way into being the twelfth quarterback

61
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: on the week. He got you nearly eighteen fantasy points

62
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: last week. I was getting some mean tweets about that

63
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: one until the garbage time points came in. But Dak Prescott,

64
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: I think he'll throw the Jacks. Has been better against

65
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,839
Speaker 1: the run in the past. So there's ever a week

66
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: to start Dak Prescott, I think it's this one. Spoiler

67
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: alert though, on Fantasy Live. I like Dak Prescott and

68
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb as a nice stack this week against Jacksonville.

69
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: On the other side, Jared Goff has been amazing for

70
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: a good long stretch. He's had a lot of really

71
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: favorable matchups. This week, not so much they are on

72
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: the road, they are at the Jets. This just feels

73
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: like a perfect storm of bad for Jared Goff. Yeah, exactly.

74
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: This is like kind of the exact opposite of Dak,

75
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: who's been struggling but gets a good matchup. Goff's been

76
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: playing really well, but the matchup is so tough. The

77
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: Jets are allowing just fourteen Fantasy points per game, that's

78
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: the eighth lowest in the NFL, but it actually should

79
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: be a lot lower because Josh Allen's had two big

80
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: rushing games against them, but they shut him down. In

81
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: the past, They've shut down everyone in the passing game.

82
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: They haven't allowed multiple passing touchdowns since like Week three,

83
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: and then the road wos Jared Goff has not scored

84
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: fifteen Fantasy points in a road game this season, while

85
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: he scored over fifteen in every single home game. I'm

86
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: not a huge home road guy, but when the splits

87
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: are this jarring, I think you have to take note.

88
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: It is definitely something to pay attention to. And this

89
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: may spread to a lot of his pass catchers as well.

90
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: I'm on ross A Brown, d J. Chark, Jamison Williams,

91
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: all guys to sort of beware of. In Week fifteen,

92
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: speaking of past catchers, let's take a look at the

93
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: wide receiver starts and sits four Week fifteen. Take us

94
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: through them. Garrett Wilson. I just think he's a must

95
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: start option moving forward, and we talked about it on

96
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: Fantasy Live. The stack between him and Mike White is

97
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: looking appealing this week. Mike Williams is in a great spot.

98
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: I still am riding with Michael Pittman Jr. Everywhere I

99
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: have him, and I think this could be a big

100
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: game for DeVonta Smith. And then you see there's a Jones.

101
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: Gonna talk more about him later, but I really like

102
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: him this week. Gabe Davis is a sit for me.

103
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: He's just been struggling, bad weather, all of that. Al

104
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: In Lazard against the Rams. He has not been the

105
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: same since the Christian Watson breakout. Adam fell In the

106
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: floor and ceiling are just they're not super. He's too

107
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: boom er busty in a tough matchup. And then Drake

108
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: London against the Saints. He's been playing better as of late,

109
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: but I don't want to start him in a rookies

110
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: first start in the fantasy playoffs. There's just so many

111
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: question marks about the Falcons right now that it might

112
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: be better to stay away. But we don't have to

113
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: stay away from Mike Williams came back and had a

114
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: big game last week against the Miami Dolphins at home.

115
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: Now he goes to take on the Tennessee Titans, and

116
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: he really couldn't ask for a better matchup for a

117
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Exactly the things that Mike Williams does well

118
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: is he scores touchdowns and he wins down field. And

119
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: we saw him do that last week when he had

120
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: over a hundred and he had a hundred and six

121
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown. Finishes a top five wide receiver.

122
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: I think he could be top five again this week

123
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 1: because not only have the Titans allowed the most fantasy

124
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: points per game to call two receivers, they've allowed the

125
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: most production on deep passes this year. And if the

126
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: Chargers are gonna test this defense and take down field shots,

127
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: you have to imagine at least a few of them

128
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 1: will be with Mike Williams, so a good chance and

129
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: to put up points in chunks and score touchdowns him.

130
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: To just be out there doing what Mike Williams does,

131
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: that is exactly what we like to see. And look,

132
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: it's elevated justin Herbert as well. Herbert was doing some

133
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: decent things on his own, but it's just so much

134
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: nicer when you have guys like Keenan Allen and Mike

135
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 1: Williams out there to help make plays for you. Gabe Davis, recently,

136
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: it's it's been a struggle. I don't even say recently.

137
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: This has been going on for a little while now

138
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: that it's kind of been a struggle for Gabe Davis.

139
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: Now he is at home against the Miami Dolphins this week,

140
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: a game that expected to be cold, potentially snowy, and buffalo.

141
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: By the way, you can see it at a pm

142
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: Eastern on NFL Network, stream it on NFL Plus. But uh,

143
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: still staying away from Gabe Davis this week? Huh yeah. One,

144
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: like you said, cold snow, potential win there that that

145
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: just hurts any of the past catchers, especially a downfield threat.

146
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: But like you said, this has been going on for

147
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: a while since the Bills Week seven by he's averaging

148
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: just nine points ex Fantasy points per game. He only

149
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: twice his top double figures and once top fifteen. So

150
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: he used to be boom or bus Now it's just

151
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: the boom has really gone away. And the Dolphins on

152
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: passes of ten plus eight yards, which are where Davis

153
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: has eight eight percent of his receiving yards on those

154
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: passes this season, they're allowing the eighth fewest pass ratings,

155
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: So so then being well guarding well against the deep

156
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: ball with the bad weather and everything, unless you're just

157
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: taking a swing for the fences type of chance I

158
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: would get away from Dave Davis. I totally get being

159
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: concerned about Gave Davis. Just I just have this sneaking

160
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: suspicion that the big play is coming in this game.

161
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: I I have there There's no there's no analytics, there's

162
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: no metrics to back it up. It's just kind of

163
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: a gut feeling that I think something big is going

164
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: to happen. Which is a nice segue to our segment

165
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: that we call how We're Feeling. We talk about a

166
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: list of guys and we go through our opinions and

167
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: our emotions about them heading into this week. So let's

168
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: start in that same game with Miami and Buffalo to

169
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,679
Speaker 1: a tongue of Violoa in a bit of a slump,

170
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: had bad weeks against the forty niners and against the Chargers,

171
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: now goes on the road to Buffalo. How are you

172
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: feeling about him on Saturday? I'm really worried about two

173
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: of this week, and and I put it out on Twitter,

174
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: like the league is adjusting to Mike McDaniel and to

175
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: a in their system right now. I do think long

176
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: term that they'll adjust back. It's just what we see

177
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: when we see new coaches. The adjustment they've made is

178
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: they're playing more split safety coverage rather than too high

179
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: and the Bills run that coverage the third most in

180
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: the NFL. So I think it's just a bad matchup

181
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: for two. And then two has only played two games

182
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: I think in his life. Like Joel Smith, our researcher

183
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 1: went through his high school college games as well. He

184
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 1: found two games in sub forty five degree weather. Two

185
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: has thrown one touchdown in four interceptions in those games.

186
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,199
Speaker 1: It's projected to be below thirty. And I know Mike

187
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: McDaniel came out and he was like, cold weather is

188
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: only a factor if you make it, like if you

189
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: think it's going to be a factor and no offense.

190
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel, you're one of my favorite head coaches in

191
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: the league. I'm not sure if you know how cold

192
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: weather work, especially cold weather in Buffalo. He's walking around

193
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: wearing a T shirt that says, I wish it was colder. Yeah,

194
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: be careful what you wish for. Trevor Lawrence going against

195
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, and I will tell you that, at

196
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: least on paper, the matchup does worry me. But what

197
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: gives me hope is the fact that Lawrence is just

198
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: playing really good football, right now, and we've seen him

199
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: be able to get out of the pocket, make throws

200
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: sort of off platform, look really accurate, look really aggressive,

201
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 1: and I think he takes that with him. I know

202
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 1: he's going to be under pressure from Micah Parsons and

203
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: the rest of that Dallas Cowboys front, but I still

204
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:33,959
Speaker 1: think he finds a way to get the ball out

205
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: to Christian Kirk's a Jones of an ingram. I'd find

206
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: a way to put up a decent fantasy number. You know,

207
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: in New York, the m t A is experimenting with

208
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: P detection technology to figure out it's elevator situation there

209
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 1: in the subway. They should probably use it on se

210
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: kuon Barkley fantasy managers to determine their fear level this week. Florio, Yeah,

211
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: and in New yorker will tell you, don't get on

212
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: the elevator, take the stairs here, just it's the better bed.

213
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: I've been saying all week how worried I am about

214
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: Sae Kwon, but I love that he's off the your report.

215
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 1: It looks like it's gonna be full systems go for

216
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: him this week. I don't love the matchup at all.

217
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: I'm fearful, but he's say Kwan Barkley, you have to

218
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 1: start him. Deyonce Foreman for the Carolina Panthers last week

219
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: did not get as much work as I thought. And

220
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: this week he's got a match up with the Pittsburgh Steelers,

221
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: and I will tell you that I'm not that optimistic.

222
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: I mean, the Steelers defensively against running backs, they've been

223
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: sort of middle of the pack. But what really worries

224
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: me is are the Panthers going to use a multitude

225
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 1: of running backs again? This week? We saw a lot

226
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: of Chuba Hubbard. Didn't we see Raheem blacks Hear score

227
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: a rushing touchdown. Yes, it was nice that they used

228
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: Foreman as the closer when it was late and they

229
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: were trying to close out the game. But the fact

230
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 1: is there were a whole lot of guys involved, and

231
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: that concerns me when the matchup isn't really stellar to

232
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: begin with, DeAndre Swift looked like he was going to

233
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 1: be a thing for a couple of weeks and then

234
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 1: suddenly he wasn't a thing. Now he's got the Jets.

235
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: How do we feel here? Not great? Because, like you

236
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: said that, like two weeks ago, we thought he's back

237
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: he's fully acclimated, he's healthy, and then they just get

238
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: away from him again. They're using three running backs there.

239
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 1: The Jets are such a tough defense, the lines are

240
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 1: on the road. There's so much going wrong right now.

241
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: He is not a must start. He's also not someone

242
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: like I must sit. He's kind of one of those

243
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: players that it just depends on your other options. Speaking

244
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: of options, there's Amari Cooper going against the Ravens on Saturday,

245
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: and check check out that game on NFL Network. And

246
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: I'm not super excited about it, but I also don't

247
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,719
Speaker 1: know that you can get away from Amari Cooper. I mean,

248
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: here it is, the matchup is not particularly great. The

249
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: Ravens secondary has been pretty good for most of the year.

250
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: On top of it, he's sort of playing through injury.

251
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: He says he's not going to sit now. Whether it's

252
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: a core injury or a hip injury, I guess depends

253
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: on where you're reading. But either way, he's less than

254
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: a Donovan. People's Jones is getting more work, David and

255
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: Joeku is there, and even with Deshaun Watson throwing the

256
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: ball downfield, I am not super confident about this week.

257
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: But again, it's gonna be really hard to sit Amari Cooper.

258
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: Jalen Waddle has been banged up recently. How do you

259
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: feel about him against your Bills. I'm worried for the

260
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: reasons I said about two, and his last two games

261
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: come by and he has three catches for forty yards

262
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: and that's it. But with that being said, you you're

263
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: not sitting him for a streamer. There's far too much

264
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: upside with the Waddle. I would need to have a

265
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 1: very solid pivot option to get away from him. Last

266
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,680
Speaker 1: one is Jerry Judy coming off a hat trick last

267
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: week for the Denver Broncos. And look I feel about

268
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy now sort of the way I felt about

269
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: him going into last week. I don't think he's a

270
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: great start, but I do think the arrow points up

271
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 1: simply because it doesn't look like we're gonna have Courtland

272
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 1: Sutton this week, So that means that Judy, as long

273
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: as he can stay on the field, is going to

274
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: see plenty of targets. The matchup on paper is pretty good,

275
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: but then again you sort of counteract that with the

276
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,719
Speaker 1: quarterback situation when it looks like Brett Rippon is going

277
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: to be the starter for the Broncos. So I feel

278
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: like Jerry Judy kind of a low end wide receiver

279
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: two at best, probably more of a wide receiver three,

280
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: and you're playing him at your own peril. Coming up.

281
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: We know that your season is on the line because

282
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: of the playoffs, So you know all you gotta do

283
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: is find yourself a lockdown, solid, no doubt about it,

284
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: tight end. So much easier said than on. We'll go

285
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 1: through the starts and sits at that position, plus some

286
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: under the radar must starts. That's next here on the

287
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: Startom Sitam Show. Saturday Football returns to the NFL on

288
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,439

295
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 1: tight Ends for Week fifteen. Please try to make some

296
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: sense of this, Mike, Yeah, it's tough to make sense

297
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: of it right now. But David and Joeku is a

298
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: must start tight end. I would make the same argument

299
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: for Dalton Schultz this weekend. Moving forward, Evan Ingram has

300
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: to be started after what he's been doing lately. Greg

301
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: dol Chick because he's the lucky winner of who gets

302
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,079
Speaker 1: the Cardinals this week, and then a streaming option in

303
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: Dawson Knocks and the sits Uh spicy a little bit here,

304
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: but Cole Comet in a tough match against the Eagles,

305
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Higbee against the Packers, Tyler Conklin against the Lions,

306
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,559
Speaker 1: and then Daniel Bellinger against the Commanders who have just

307
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: shut tight ends down this season. So don't start any

308
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: Tyler's got it. But on the other side, there's there's

309
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: David and Joku, who really has been playing well all

310
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: year long. I know he missed some time with injury,

311
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: but when Jacoby Brissette was there, he was a guy

312
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 1: that we looked to. Now they've got Deshaun Watson at quarterback,

313
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: who really has elevated the passing game, or at least

314
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: is trying to. It seems like they're sort of force

315
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: feeding the passing option. But you like David and Joko

316
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: against the Ravens this week. Yeah, last week was his

317
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: first game this season with DeShawn Watson, and he had

318
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: nine targets, so that stood out. He caught seven of

319
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: them for fifty nine yards and a touchdown, scoring eighteen

320
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: points seven fantasy points, his second most on the season,

321
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: So it's great to see that he could be productive

322
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: with Watson back out there. And then he's averaged thirteen

323
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: and a half fantasy points per game since Week three.

324
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: Only Travis Kelsey has more wars. So like he's that's

325
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: elite when we're talking about tight ends, because if you

326
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: take away Travis Kelsey, I mean, he would be the

327
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: best of the best at the position. He needs to

328
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: be started weekend and week out moving forward. It's amazing

329
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: how we've sort of shifted our perception on fantasy elites

330
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: at the tight end position all year long and has

331
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: sort of made his way to the top tier of

332
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: fantasy tight ends. Right now. He is your tight end four.

333
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: Although you can also throw the checkmark the asterisk next

334
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: to it. Saying that about thirty of his fantasy production

335
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: came in one game. I know, on some levels it

336
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: feels like point chasing, but on the other level, it

337
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: feels like maybe the Jaguars have found something offensively. Yeah,

338
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: Like you're never gonna get fifteen targets, eleven catches, a

339
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty two yards, two touchdowns, and thirty nine

340
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: fantasy points. Again, like that's a career game. It's literally

341
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: the best tight end game ever in Jaguars history. But

342
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: I think what gets overlooked is the week before that

343
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: he had seven targets, he called a touchdown, he scored

344
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: fourteen fantasy points. So he's been consistently involved. As of late,

345
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: he's running hot, scoring touchdowns and two straight. And the Cowboys,

346
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: I know, on paper it's a tough matchup. They're tough

347
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: against every position, but I think the Jags will have

348
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: to throw. Uh, these are two good offenses as well.

349
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: So and plus if Trayvon Diggs is on Christian Kirk

350
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: that could mean more volume getting spread around. You talk

351
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: about this being the top tight end game in Jaguars history,

352
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: I like, I decided to go at Google like Jaguars

353
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: tight ends, Um, it's not great, Like Marcedes Lewis might

354
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: be the greatest one they've ever had. This, Thomas had

355
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: a year there, Tyler Effort was there for sure, it's

356
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: not a great list of tight ends in Jaguars history,

357
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: not to take away from having Ingram, but also the

358
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: competition not very stiff. Let's talk about some players we

359
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: think deserve more hype and our must starts this week,

360
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: so start us off, Florio. I like Miles Sanders a

361
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: lot this week. The Bears have struggled against the run.

362
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: Their defense is super banged up right now. And then

363
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders. For as much as we all doubted him

364
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: myself very much though included coming into this season, he's

365
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: been getting a lot of work. Like he had seventeen

366
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 1: carries last week twenty one, a couple of weeks before that,

367
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: and he's good for usually over thirteen touches per game,

368
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 1: and even in the passing game lately he wasn't really

369
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,360
Speaker 1: used there much at all. But in the last three

370
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: games he has eight targets, which doesn't it's not a

371
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: whole lot, but it's better than what he's been getting.

372
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: But this is about the matchup. Like the Bears, they

373
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: just struggle in general. I think they'll be ran all

374
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: over this game. So Miles Sanders a good option against

375
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: the Bears. I like Elijah more against the Detroit Lions,

376
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: in part because he's starting to see more work he's

377
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: getting on the field. Last week he had the highest

378
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: route percentage that he's had since Week four of the season.

379
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: And now it looks like the Jets are gonna be

380
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: without Corey Davis this week, and what's going to be

381
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: an excellent matchup. You know, the Lions have actually been

382
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: a lot better against running backs for the last month

383
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: or so. Second few at points allowed to the running

384
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 1: back position, but the most points allowed to wide receivers.

385
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: So appears that the Lions defense can't multitask. That's probably

386
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: good news for Elijah More. There's another wide receiver that's

387
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 1: on your n this week, Yeah, z A Jones. I

388
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 1: had him as a streaming option on the board, and

389
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: I'm starting Za Jones in every league I have him in,

390
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: which is multiple. Uh. He's been averaging ten point eight

391
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 1: targets per game in the past month. That's fourth amongst

392
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: wide receivers. And he had the one dud where he

393
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: had like a bunch of drops. But besides that, fourteen

394
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,239
Speaker 1: point eight fantasy points in every other game in that

395
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: four game stretch over twenty one twice tons of volume,

396
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 1: tons of weekly production and again Cowboys, They're probably gonna

397
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,479
Speaker 1: have to throw the ball against them. And if Trayvon

398
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 1: Diggs is on Christian Kirk, we could see Za Jones

399
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: get even more volume. My last one here is Dalton

400
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,199
Speaker 1: Schultz scoring against the Jacksonville Jaguars, and I'd say this,

401
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: I think Dalton Schultz has a chance to sort of

402
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,439
Speaker 1: be an unsung playoff m v P for a lot

403
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: of people. The schedule is really good down the stretch

404
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys, especially at the tight end position, and

405
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,239
Speaker 1: even though we mentioned Doc has been sort of up

406
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 1: and down the last couple of weeks, he is starting

407
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 1: to get Shultz more involved, just because the Cowboys are

408
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: looking for a second pass catching option after Seedee Lamb.

409
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,439
Speaker 1: It looks like the men in the middle can be it,

410
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 1: and it feels like this is a good week for

411
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 1: him to get it, going against a Jaguar secondary that

412
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: has been at best so far this year. Week fifteen

413
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: starts sit running backs go Alvin Kamara in a great

414
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: match up against the Falcons Naji Harrison what I think

415
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,360
Speaker 1: will be a very competitive game keeps in game scripted

416
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 1: in against the Panthers Isaiah Pacheco in the best matchup

417
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 1: a running back again against the Texans, and then Bam

418
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 1: Knight in a good matchup against the lines stream J K.

419
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: Dobbins against the Browns too, that's a fantastic matchup. And

420
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: then some sits Travis c. T N. It hurts my

421
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: heart to say, but he just hasn't been the same

422
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 1: player as of late. Devin Singletary against the Dolphins, Cordaro

423
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: Patterson against the Saints, and some J. P. Ryan. He's

424
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: someone you want on your roster right now, but not

425
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: in your starting lineup. It's kind of scary. He took

426
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 1: a lot of touches, but not enough to make him

427
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: really viable on a weekly basis. But Alvin Kamara, he's

428
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: got the Falcons. It's been a struggle for him this year.

429
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: I feel like if it doesn't happen for him this week,

430
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 1: then we could probably much maybe just write him off

431
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 1: for the rest of the year. Yeah, this is a

432
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: big week for him. He's been really struggling as of late,

433
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 1: like you said, but last year he had good success

434
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: against the Falcons. He scored over eighteen fantasy points in

435
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: both games against them, and the Falcons this season there

436
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: in the top ten, and fantasy points allowed two running

437
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: backs plus Dennis Allen came out and was like, Hey,

438
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,360
Speaker 1: we need to start using Alvin Kamara more. And it's like, yeah,

439
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: everyone has been telling you this. You have to throw

440
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: in the ball more and stuff. Stop using him as

441
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: a straight runner up the middle. So hopefully they kind

442
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: of got that memo. I mean, I just would love

443
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 1: for him to be more involved in the passing game.

444
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: His target share has been really spotty for most of

445
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 1: the season. Travis e. TN. You mentioned the guy that

446
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 1: it sort of hurts your heart to put him on

447
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 1: the sit side of things. But for all the other

448
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 1: guys in Jacksonville who seemed to have picked things up,

449
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: et N has kind of gone the other way lately. Yeah,

450
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: And last week in the intro to startom sit him,

451
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 1: I wrote like, with six teams on by, I can't

452
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,959
Speaker 1: tell you to sit Travis C. T And as much

453
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: as I may want to, well, there's no more buys anymore,

454
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 1: So you could sit Travis E. T N right now.

455
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: Since his Week twelve game where he left with the

456
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: foot injury, he just scored ten point eight Fantasy points

457
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 1: in his last two games combined. That's five per game.

458
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 1: Pretty much He's been struggling on the ground. The one

459
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 1: knock I have on the Jags offenses they don't throw

460
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: him the ball enough because he's a really good receiver.

461
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: And then the Cowboys defense, they've been very good upfront,

462
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 1: allowing the six views Fantasy points per game to running backs.

463
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: Plus we know they could get pressure on the quarterback

464
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: and stuff. I would I would stay away from Eat

465
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 1: and if you have other options you can trust. Yeah,

466
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: it might be tough question. I I this is what

467
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: I got. Kenneth Walker or Travis E t N. I mean,

468
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: that's the hardest question you could have given me right now.

469
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: Because I don't love Walker either. I would take the

470
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: shot on Walker, though. Yeah, it's gonna be a tough

471
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 1: one on either of those guys. This week, Hey, as

472
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: symbol your crew, put on your close you know it's

473
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: time for our players of the week. The guys we

474
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: guarantee you will score at least twenty five Fantasy points

475
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: in their respective matchup. So for you who gets in

476
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: the club who is running up a tab this week,

477
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: this is the Charlie's Angels pose, Right, That's what I

478
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: was thinking, was I'm gonna go with Christian Watson, rain

479
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: him on here. Callie hates this, but Christian Watson has

480
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: been balling out and we know that he can win

481
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: down fields. He could win after the catch, he could

482
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: win in the red zone. You want a receiver who

483
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 1: could do all of those three things and he's great

484
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 1: at doing so. Plus the Rams good matchup. They really

485
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,719
Speaker 1: struggled against pass catchers as of late. And if you're

486
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,239
Speaker 1: worried about Jalen Ramsey, you saw Davontae Adams cook him

487
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 1: downfield multiple times last week. Christian Watson's even faster. He's

488
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: a burner. All he needs to do is win one

489
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 1: and he will have a big fantasy game. Christian Watson

490
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: the guy who does it with the big play a

491
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: lot of times. My guy, maybe not so much the

492
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:56,120
Speaker 1: big play, but just consistency. That's Keenan Allen. Money gonna struggling.

493
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 1: You know what's gonna take it out. Everybody's doing the

494
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 1: old fashioned way. Just make it bring old fashioned ways

495
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 1: here with dollar bills because Keenan Allen. Look, he's a

496
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 1: guy who's gonna get a lot of targets, maybe a

497
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: lot of shorter throws, but just the consistency. I wouldn't

498
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: be surprised if you see Allen have double digit catches

499
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: for about a hundred yards and get himself in the

500
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: end zone against the Tennessee Titans, because that's the way

501
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: you sort of do it against this Titan secondary. Mike

502
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: Williams a big play guy. Keenan Allen more of the

503
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: consistency guy, But either way, I think he's going to

504
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 1: have a really big game against the Titans. So you know,

505
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: those are the folks you're gonna get you into the

506
