15
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: do take a look back at Thursday Night football. The

16
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Cam Newton in

17
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: for a big night, In for a big night, watching

18
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: Cam Newton have a big night. First quarter, Panthers third

19
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: and Goal's ne be finding a very well covered Greg Olsen, Akbar,

20
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: you still want to trade Greg Olson. Maybe now I'm considering, reconsidering. Okay,

21
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: seven up in Panthers second quarter, Pathers in the red

22
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 1: zone running back to Angel Williams. This is not a mirage.

23
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 1: He actually gets the handoff and gets into the ends

24
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: one for the touchdown. Fire first touchdown of Oh he's

25
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: ready now. He always seems to score against Tampa Bay.

26
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: Look at him. Bust to move. Third quarter, Panthers second

27
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: and goal. Newton keeps it himself, goes in for the

28
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: six yard touchdown. I'll believe I can fly. See That's

29
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: why he's Superman right there. Six Panthers. You know seven

30
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: play has about the camera. First play in the fourth quarter,

31
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: Panthers adding to their lead. It's Cam Newton play action

32
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: to Mike Tolber. Underrated and I played him on League.

33
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: Mike Tolber, thank you very much. Touchdown in Mike. I

34
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:53,559
Speaker 1: think that's for Mike Williams. Panthers win thirty that come away.

35
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: I'm hot. Cam Newton one yards, two touchdowns, also a

36
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: touchdown rushing in this game. Here are your Carolina fantasy points,

37
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: Cam Newton nearly twenty eight points. Akbar. You started in

38
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: the Experts League. You're off to a huge lead, and

39
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: here's Mike Tilbert fab Suddenly he's becoming a bi week

40
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,119
Speaker 1: flex option guy. He is, but keep in mind John

41
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: and Stewart is very close to returning, so it's gonna

42
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: become a messy backfield again in Carolina. When it comes

43
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: to Cam Newton, though, he's a guy that hopefully you

44
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 1: held on to him if he did this last year.

45
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: He was bad the first few weeks. Now he's really

46
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: coming on and he's become a mustart quarterback. Yeah. I

47
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: devised a great strategy by playing Michael Vick in the

48
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: first half of the season, and now I start playing

49
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 1: Cam Newton and he's doing exactly what you expect him

50
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: to do, getting out there and making things happen with

51
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: his feet. I mean, on the day, two hundred and

52
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 1: twenty one yards passing two touchdown and fifty yards rushing

53
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: with a Rushton touchdown. And he's just two big. He's

54
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: a big body guy. He's throwing the ball very very well,

55
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: finding this guy's in open space. Cam Newton's He's I'm

56
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,519
Speaker 1: playing him all the way through. Let's be honest, you

57
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 1: didn't device that strategy. I got the best out of it.

58
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 1: You mentioned it right there. What about your strategy for

59
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: Angela Williams going well? Every time he plays the bucket,

60
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: scores a touchdown nine touchdowns in his last ten games

61
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: against Tampa Bay. I don't know if things are gonna

62
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: say the same though, because again John the Stewart is

63
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: gonna be back. You may want to sell high on

64
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: the Angela Williams right now. Panther's defense gave you nine

65
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: fantasy points last night, which isn't okay night, but they're

66
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: close to being a shutdown defense the way they do.

67
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: Five touchdown passes allowed so far this season. That is

68
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,519
Speaker 1: it bar. Why is the Panther's defense so good? Well,

69
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: I think you have to look at that defensive front,

70
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: but most importantly that front seven. That front seven is

71
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: off the chain and its all starts up front with

72
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: the guys star low to lay and then the linebacker corps.

73
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: I want you to take a look here at Thomas Davis.

74
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: He does really good in coverag. Now he takes his

75
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: eyes to the quarterback with Mike Glenning and loses Tom Crabtree,

76
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: but he's gonna have great recovery and stripped right here

77
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: Crabtree get the ball out. That's good coverage skills by

78
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: the linebacker. Now we talked about that defensive front. Checkout

79
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: Greg Hardy. He bull rushes, gave Kareemi as he all

80
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: the powers him. This is what you're tall keeping and

81
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: Tame collapsed in the pocket. All of a sudden, there's

82
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: nowhere for Mike Glenning to go. He gets pressure down,

83
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: he goes with the second. You talk about an impressive

84
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: front seven. This is it again for down lineman. Again

85
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: we're seeing the pressure this time Charles Johnson. What does

86
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,359
Speaker 1: this lead for Glennon? This leaves him a two way go,

87
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: but he's too scarlet to go up in there because

88
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: he sees star low l A. I would be too.

89
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: And of course now that makes this defense a very

90
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: good play every single week. Yeah, there are top three

91
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: fantasy defense right now by far. Take a look at

92
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. Mike Glennon gave you an okay night, Timothy

93
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: right nearly eleven Fantasy points and ranks behind him. The

94
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. Not so gay night from Vincent Jackson.

95
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: But this wasn't a great night for Tampa Bay fabs.

96
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: Going forward, it's still Vincent Jackson's offense. I think you

97
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 1: take this game, you just throw it away. Yeah, Vincent

98
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,679
Speaker 1: Jackson is a must start wide receiver in all fantasy

99
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: leagues right now. Mike Glennon has still looked for him.

100
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: I mean, that's been the big thing. And he didn't

101
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: have a terrible game. Seven point nine fantasy points on

102
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: a night when the Buccaneers offense did nothing. I'll take that.

103
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 1: Good thing is garbage time points. They count as much

104
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: as the real ones. And that's what helped Timothy White too.

105
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: He had all his points in garbage time. That seems Yeah.

106
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: And we spent some time talking about Mike James this week,

107
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: nearly seven fantasy points against a very good defense. So

108
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: he did enough to prove that you should own him

109
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: and take a look at the matchups going forward, at

110
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: least until Doug Martin returns. Next Thursday, a j. Green

111
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: in the first place, Bengals take on Mike Wallace and

112
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: the Dolphins in a primetime Halloween showdown Bengals Dolphins. That's

113
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: a lot of orange. Thursday Night Football a p m.

114
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: Eastern Live on NFL Network. Time now to send things

115
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: over to Adam Rank and Marcus Grant, who were standing

116
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: by with all the latest news guys. Thank you, Jason

117
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Professor, Marcus Grant, and I here with your

118
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 1: latest fantasy headlines for Friday, October. We'll stick with that

119
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: game in Tampa Bay last night and some potential good

120
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: news for Bucks fans. NFL media insider Ian Rappaport is

121
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: saying the Buccaneers Pro Bowl running back Doug Martin could

122
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: return his early as week ten from a torn labor

123
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 1: room And Marcus, what does this mean? Do you ego

124
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: wrap him off the waiver win? Oh, you go grab

125
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: him off the waiver wire. Hopefully you're holding onto him.

126
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: If you have him on your roster, you wait on him. Now,

127
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: if he has any sent back, there's a chance they

128
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 1: could shut him down for the rest of the season.

129
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: So you do want to keep an eye on what's

130
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: happening with Doug Martin. But if he's gonna be back

131
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: in week ten, you can afford to wait a couple

132
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: of weeks. Considering the poor state of the running back

133
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 1: market there. This is why you shouldn't be so hasty

134
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: and release guys. All right, let's take a look at

135
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: some more headlines here. Reggie Bush did not practice on Friday.

136
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: We'll have more on him in just a moment. C J.

137
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: Spiller also did not practice because of that ankle injury,

138
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: and Roddy White has been ruled out against the Cardinals

139
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 1: on Sunday because of ankle and hamstring injuries. And that

140
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: helps us out a little bit because nobody won't be starting. Yeah,

141
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: let's take some of that pressure off of whether or

142
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: not you should put him in your line All right,

143
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 1: let's go back to the Reggie Bush, who again was

144
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: held out Alliance practice on Friday and was seen with

145
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 1: his right leg wrapped in ice. But don't Fred Bush

146
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 1: says it was just a precautionary measure and quote, I'm

147
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: playing Sunday. That's all you need to know. Is that

148
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: all we need to know? That is all we need

149
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: to know, Sir Reginald Alfred Bush. The seconds will be

150
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: in the lineup for the Detroit Lions. You're gonna want

151
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 1: him in your line up against the Dallas Cowboys. Is

152
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: potential for big points there. Should we be going out

153
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: and picking up Joint Bell who's been released in a

154
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: lot of leaks, so you can pull you can pick

155
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: him up if you're looking for a flex option. Maybe

156
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: he's there for you. I mean, we keep talking about

157
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: how poor it is at the running back market though

158
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: he's a flex option, but temper your expectation. Got to

159
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: have that handcuff. Now. Tom Brady was listed on the

160
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: Patriots injury report Thursery with a little bit of a

161
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: shoulder problem. Any concerns about starting him against the Miami Dolphins, No,

162
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: there really aren't. You know. I think you get Tom

163
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: Brady back in there. He's kind of on the upswing

164
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: right now. I know he's been frustrating for fantasy owners,

165
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: but yes, slightly, yes slightly. I mean Gronkowski is back.

166
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: Things seem to be heading in the right direction for

167
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: number twelve. Yeah, as long as his weapons start coming back,

168
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be very good going forward. So

169
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: I'm not as usual would say, Marcus skirt, don't be

170
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: skirt skirt, don't you see? All right, Let's take a

171
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: look now at the full injury report for Friday and

172
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: some big names there. Danny Amendola, your ing you will

173
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: come back for you know, if you have Tom Brady

174
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: like we do. Miles Austin has a hamstring problem. Justin

175
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: ham or Justin Blackman has been battling a hamstring problem.

176
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham a little troublesome there with the foot. Everybody

177
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: on high alert for that. When Steven Jackson, de Marco Bury,

178
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: a couple of other guys cecil sports, uh C. J. Spiller.

179
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about Michael Vick though, because it

180
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: looks like he's gonna play. But would you caution starting him?

181
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: I would be caution cautious about starting him. But you know,

182
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: there aren't a whole lot of other great options out there.

183
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: You're losing so many guys because of the six teams

184
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: on by this week. And don't let that Monday night

185
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: game fool you. The Giants defense is still bad. It's

186
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: just the Vikings were even worse on Monday Night. So

187
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: I like Michael mckis an option. As long as you're

188
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: not Josh Freeman, I think you'll be all right. Okay, alright.

189
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: Steven Jackson was a guy that I said this season

190
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,959
Speaker 1: could be your fantasy m v P. And of course

191
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: he's been battling hamstring problems. Do you start him now

192
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: that he's back? I think it plugged him in, but

193
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: you're very cautious about what may happen with him, I mean,

194
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: the Cardinals are very good upfront against the run, and

195
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: Jeff Quiz Rodgers, I think we remain a pretty large

196
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: part of that Falcon's offense. I can't imagine Jackoys Rodgers

197
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 1: coming out of the lineup because he's just been way

198
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: too good. Another guy who's causing a lot of anxiety

199
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: for fantasy owners out there, it's Jimmy Graham. You would

200
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: have hoped that after a bye week you would have

201
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: come back stronger than ever, but it looks like there's

202
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: some questions there. There are some questions there. People are

203
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: kind of turning in the direction of Ben Watson. If

204
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 1: you're a fantasy owner, I don't know that you go

205
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: that route just yet, but you are looking for some

206
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: potential backup options off the waiver wire. You were hoping

207
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham would be ready after the by give me

208
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,679
Speaker 1: a quick give me a quick pick up. I think

209
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: Jordan Reid is a guy you go look at if

210
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: he's still out there, Um, you know, maybe a couple

211
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 1: of other guys try to find somewhere deeper on the

212
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: waiver wire. Maybe Andrew and that's the one I was

213
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: looking for, all right. There are reports out there Danny

214
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: M and Dola passed his concussion protocols. He will be

215
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: ready to go, and this has to be good news

216
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: if he starts for the New England Patriots. Marcus, does

217
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: he start for you? Yes he does. Rob Gronkowski is

218
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 1: the number one target in that Patriots passing offense, but

219
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: Danny Ammond all if he's on the field, is number two.

220
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 1: This pushes guys like Julian Edelman and kim Berl Thompkins

221
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 1: down the pecking order. Yeah, and I got Danny M

222
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: into my league of record. I'm not I'm not afraid

223
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: to start him. I got him and don't be scared.

224
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: The message certainly will not be Now, be sure to

225
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: set your DVRs for the late edition of NFL Fantasy

Speaker 1: against Megatron, and the Lions are we in for a

231
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: fantasy shootout at Ford Field. Coach Leslie Fraser has Christian

232

Speaker 1: Ponder back in the Viking starting light up the quarterback

233

234

Speaker 1: should start for your team in Week eight. We'll be

235
00:10:45,480 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: back in just about it a touchbout. Welcome back to

236
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live. I wonder what our fantasy match of

237
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: the week is going to be. Here's the NFL schedule

238
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: Week eight. Don't forget nine Ins and Jaguars coming to

239
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: you from London. Cowboys Lions more than that in a

240
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: few minutes. Giants Eagles. Two disappointing teams, but could be

241
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: a ton of fantasy points there. Then the late games,

242
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: there are a lot of them. Steelers, Raiders, Jets, Bengals, Falcons, Cardinals, Redskins,

243
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: Broncos could see a lot of points in that one

244
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: and Seahawks Rams Monday Night Football eight forty pm Eastern time.

245
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,599
Speaker 1: Time down. Take a look at our fantasy matchup of

246
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: the week, and that is the Dallas Cowboys and the

247
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. That game in early game one o'clock. And

248
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 1: let's take a look and see who's got the fantasy

249
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 1: edge of quarterback Tony Romo versus Matthew Stafford and Marcus

250
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: These are two guys have been both very good this year.

251
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: You like Tony Romo a little bit more. I do

252
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: like Romo a little bit more. You know what's crazy

253
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,719
Speaker 1: about this is we came into the season thinking that

254
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: Tony Romo and Matthew Stafford were just on the outside

255
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: of the top tendon fantasy quarterbacks. They're both well into

256
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: the top ten at this point in the season. Tony

257
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: Room was the number six quarterback in Fantasy points, and

258
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: he's going up against the defense that's given up the

259
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: most passing yards in the league in the last two weeks.

260
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: The lines have allowed when six hundred and fifty yards

261
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: through the air. He's got a great rapport with as Brian,

262
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 1: he still has Jason Whitney, Terrence Williams has emerged in

263
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: that Cowboys offense. Tony Romo is one of the best

264
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: fantasy quarterbacks out there. Forget what Cowboy fans think of him,

265
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 1: Forget how he frustrates you in real football and fantasy.

266
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 1: He is a Jim, He's the mayor, He's the man

267
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: Tony Rommo and must start in fantasy o bar you

268
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: like the other side of the coin, Matthew Stafford. Yeah,

269
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: I'm in love with Matthew Stafford in this situation because

270
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: you look at it twenty four plus fantasy points in

271
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: two straight games. Well, how's he doing there? That's seven

272
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: touchdowns he's thrown in two straight games. That's a lot

273
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: of touchdowns. And this offense is dedicated to passing the ball.

274
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 1: And they've got guys of course like Calvin Johnson, but

275
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: more importantly, Reggie Busch has been very instrumental in this

276
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 1: offense as far as the Russian game, in the passing game,

277
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 1: and that's allowed everything vertical to step up. You talk

278
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: about the tight end for you, he has been bid

279
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: for them in the red zone. So all of a sudden,

280
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: now this offense, Matthew Stafford has got a bunch of gods.

281
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 1: Now to throw it to a right right. Maybe the

282
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 1: biggest question in this game is can you trust DeMarco

283
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 1: Murray in his return? Certainly, you know the old adage.

284
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 1: If he plays for the Dallas Cowboys, he is going

285
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,199
Speaker 1: to play for your fantasy team. This guy has been

286
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: fantastic so far this season. Three touchdowns in his last

287
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: four games that he has played. Now he goes up

288
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 1: against Alliance of allowed the eleventh most fantasy points to

289
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 1: running backs, just under nineteen points a game, And I

290
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 1: like what he's been able to do. The Cowboys are

291
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: really committed to the run, and this is part of

292
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: the reason why Tony Romo has taken a little bit

293
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: of a step back in the last two games, because

294
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: they've been handing the ball off in the in the

295
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: inside the red zone. Philip Tanner got the touchdown last week.

296
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 1: So they will continue to go to the run when

297
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 1: they get close, and that's because Bill Callahan wants to

298
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: establish a more balanced offense with both of the run

299
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: and the past. And think about who we have out there.

300
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: We have Matt Forte, Arian Foster, Ray Rise, Doug Martin,

301
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: Chris Johnson, all these guys between injuries and boys, these

302
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: guys are out so see, I have des in a

303
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: bunch of league. Now when you shoo the runs, all right,

304
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,079
Speaker 1: Who's got the edge of wide receiver? This was a

305
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: question beginning of the year and it still stays one.

306
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: Both of them are great. Does Dez have the edge

307
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,959
Speaker 1: over Calvin Johnson? I love the fact that Tony Romo

308
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: is just a powerhouse. I mean, you look at his arms,

309
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 1: and you look at what Dez Brian has done. He's

310
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: matured so much this season. And when I look at

311
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: what he's done as far as getting off the press,

312
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: getting off the man coverage, he's been able to escape

313
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: in his separation. So when you talk about the balance offense,

314
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: yes that's true. But the fifty percent of the time

315
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: or more really, when they're throwing the ball, it's going

316
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: to Dez Bryan. I know Terrence is over there stepping up,

317
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: but he's doing a lot to take a lot of

318
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: attention off of Dez Briant. He's gonna have a lot

319
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: more one on one matchups. I like des Brian in

320
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: this situation. That's interesting because you know, I thought coming

321
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: into the season, Dez Bryant had a chance to be

322
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: the number one Fantasy wide receiver, and I think he's

323
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: still gonna have a good year. But Megatron, I mean

324
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson, and he's got He's still last week with

325
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: three guys around, that's right. I mean, until until Deth

326
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: Brian can do that, Calvin Johnson is still the number

327
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: one Fantasy the wide receiver in my opinion. Six such

328
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: sounds in his last five games. The one thing I

329
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: would say is a caveat this week he's going up

330
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 1: against Brandon Carr. Brandon Car the last three weeks has

331
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: faced to Marius Thomas, Pierre Garson, de Sean Jackson. He's

332
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: held all three of those guys too. He were than

333
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: seven fantasy points. But Mega Trump, I mean, what more

334
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: do anyhow? Well? Oh, by the way, remember Dez Bryan's

335
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: going up against a very weak defense right now. Of

336
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 1: the case of the disappearing Miles Austin, take a look

337
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: at Austin versus Terrence Williams. Terrence Williams has more catches,

338
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: he's got more yards, he's got more touchdowns, and he's

339
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: got way more fantasy points. Miles Austin has missed a

340
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: couple of games due to a hamstring injury, but it's

341
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: clear that he's being phased out of this offense, right

342
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: And you've been on Terence Williams the last couple of weeks.

343
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: He's being phased in. He was a huge sleeper for

344
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: us when Miles Austin first went out, and then we

345
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: were a little bit concerned when Miles was coming back.

346
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: But Terence Williams has absolutely lapped the field in this category.

347
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: And Aquard, you talked about this. He's got one job

348
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: to do. Beat one on one coverage. Can you do that?

349
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: He has been doing that. He has scored a touchdown

350
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: in his last three games. He's gonna keep that pace

351
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: going because you still, no matter how good he does,

352
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: no matter how many times he scores a touchdown, you

353
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: still have to double cover des Brian no matter what

354
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: you do, because you know the power throat that he is.

355
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: But all of a sudden, now you gotta keep this defense. Honest.

356
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to respect Terence Williams. He's beating this

357
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: guy one on one. They're gonna have to start rolling

358
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: thing towards Terrence as well. So that means you're gonna

359
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: have both guys now in a situation where they're gonna

360
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: be playing a lot of zone. But you're in a

361
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: defensive meeting room. Who's the coach coming out? And Brian

362
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: de Brian is the immediate automatically Alright, So now, Marcus,

363
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: you and ok are both like the Cowboys in this game. Right,

364
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: You're the only one who likes the Lions. How come

365
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: I like the Lions at home? That's just you know,

366
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: it's not scientific, but this just seems like a Cowboys

367
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 1: letdown game. Anytime the Cowboys got a chance to put

368
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: a little bit of separation in that week, NFC East.

369
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: They seem to fall back, and that Lions team they're

370
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: pretty good. Don't sleep on the Lions. This is a

371
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: good football. Yeah, they got just have to improve that

372
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: past defense. There's all right. Here's our fantasy projections powered

373
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: by E. A. Madden. Big days for both Tony Romo,

374
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, Calvin Anson, Des Bryant, Reggie Bush. Williams is

375
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 1: over ten. Jason Witten is over ten with thirteen fantasy points.

376
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 1: Not a big day for the defense, as though preverently

377
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 1: A Sports likes the Lions defense a little bit more

378
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: than the Cowboys in this one. Now, Dallas and Detroit

379
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: may have been our fantasy matchup of the week, but

Speaker 1: we're keeping an eye right now on Buffalo, New Orleans.

387
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: Gonna look at a few games throughout the dial on Sunday.

388
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: Akbar who wins this game? And give me a couple

389
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: of guys you're looking at fantasy, Well, I've got the

390
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 1: Saints winning this game thirty five thirteen over the Buffalo Bills.

391
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: And the one guy I'm looking at for the Buffalo

392
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: Bill side is Fred Jackson. And Fred Jackson to me,

393
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 1: has just been the guy. He's totally totally taken over

394
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,880
Speaker 1: this running back position. He's beating c J. Spiller out.

395
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: He's beating him in every statistical category, almost every statistical

396
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 1: category you can think of. He's got more rush yards

397
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: with less carries. He's got more touchdowns, He's got five

398
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 1: touchdowns to of course c J. Spiller's won. But here's

399
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: what he's He's improving his ability to catch, his ability

400
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: to receive. That's where he's really starting to do. And

401
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 1: then in the written so, I mean, this is where

402
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: he's been making a lot of money. And you can say, well,

403
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 1: they've got injuries, yes, and who's persevered more It's been

404
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 1: Fred Jackson the one persevering. I'm looking for him to

405
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: have a big game. And then on the other end,

406
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 1: how about this guy Marcus Colston. Where has my man go?

407
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean, here's a guy that came up and he

408
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 1: was the hot he was hot stuff. Does he bounce backer? No,

409
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: I don't think he bounce back in his name. I

410
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: Drew Brees just has a lot of other guys he's

411
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 1: been targeting, and I think that's been the reason why

412
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: his productions gone day. I got I gotta sleeper for that. Okay,

413
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna I'm gonna have to wait, okay to

414
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 1: later in the show. How about Giants and Eagles. I

415
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: like this game for the fantasy points and everything. I'm

416
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 1: gonna go with the Birds. The Birds win this one.

417
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: I see it's gonna be a little bit of a

418
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 1: blowout because the Giants just can't. The Giants got their win, congratulations.

419
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 1: But now the Eagles, it's time. They're time to shine

420
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 1: all Know, who are you looking at in this game? Well,

421
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: you look at the running back position. You look at

422
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 1: Peyton hillis what he was able to do last week

423
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: against the Minnesota Vikings. And he Okay, let's be honest,

424
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: He's not very fast. It's a matter of it. He

425
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: looks like kind of like Fred Flintstone walking across the vie.

426
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: He's just missing. They just listen. You can hear the

427
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: two Walt Walt, Walt Walt as he just kind of

428
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 1: rolls along. But as long as he's starting, you know,

429
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: and he gets the chances, he's the number one guy.

430
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: And on the other side of the ball, watch out

431
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: for Riley Cooper. This is somebody that Akbar was very

432
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: high on recently, and when Nick Foles was the starting quarterback,

433
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: he's started to get Riley Cooper established back in then offense.

434
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 1: So I'm interested to see if Michael Vick can continue

435
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,360
Speaker 1: to do that. They don't really have there's not there's

436
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 1: not a lot of options at wide receivers. We're looking

437
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 1: very deep for spots. Start, sir, Riley Cooper is the

438
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: guy you can pick up and grab. He's not gonna

439
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: like that front, all right, Marcus. How about Green Bay

440
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: in Minnesota this game? I like the Packers to win

441
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 1: this one, t I. I think you know that the

442
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 1: the Vikings maybe get a late garbage touchdown something like that,

443
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: but I don't expect a whole lot out of them.

444
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: The one big thing is don't panic about Adrian Peterson.

445
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 1: I know, earlier this week he said he had a

446
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 1: hamstring issue and he said it was affecting him more mentally.

447
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: Than physically. He doesn't expect it to be an issue

448
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: against the Packers. You really hate to see him get

449
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 1: stacked up by the line of scrimmage. It could happen

450
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 1: again with Christian Ponder starting at the quarterback spot. At

451
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: bar mentioned the number of running backs though out because

452
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: of buys or injuries. You're started Adrian Peterson. Don't worry

453
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 1: about what the numbers say. He's still one of the

454
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 1: best running backs in all of football. Right Replacing Drew

455
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: Michael Finley is Andrew Kualas, and people are saying, who

456
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: is this guy? Fifth round pick in ten out of

457
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 1: Penn State, seven stars, in three NFL seasons, one career

458
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: touchdown back in against Minnesota. He's played twenty nine games,

459
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 1: He's got twenty eight receptions. What kind of play is

460
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: he this week? He is a very cautious play. But again,

461
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: buys are really gonna hurt you. It's it's pretty likely

462
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: you don't have a lot of depth at the tied

463
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: end positions. So anybody catching passes from Aaron Rodgers is

464
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: a guy who possibly has some fantasy value see Boykin,

465
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: Comma Jarrett. You know, maybe you plug him in the

466
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: light of that also be aware though Brandon Boston is

467
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 1: another guy who see some snaps, may run some routes

468
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,199
Speaker 1: for the Packers this week. All right, there you go.

469
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:04,720

487
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 1: look at the recap, your fantasy points. Cam Newton two

488
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: one yards, a couple of touchdowns passing, He had that

489
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 1: touchdown running seven point eight four fantasy points. Mike Tilbert

490
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 1: again stepping into the backfield, doing a nice job. Both

491
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: he and D'Angel Williams both over ten points. Mike Glennon

492
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: gave you okay night, and Rank, you were on Timothy right.

493
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,679
Speaker 1: You said, pick up Timothy right if he can give

494
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,239
Speaker 1: you a nice night at tight end. We had him

495
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: as one of our sleepers a couple of weeks ago

496
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: and now he's a nice little play once in a while.

497
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: So there's your recap. T NF. No, it's time this

498
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: week our Shannahanigans back. It's Mike Shanahan's return to Denver.

499
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: You know what he likes to do with backfields all

500
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: over the place. So are they returning because Alfred Morris Rank,

501
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 1: you talked about Shannahanigans. He's been the guy for a

502
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 1: long time. We thought Shannon Henigans did disappear. It's ground zero.

503
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,360
Speaker 1: We've found out where the case originally started. And yes,

504
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: you look at Alfred Morris. He's been playing so well recently,

505
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,160
Speaker 1: He's averaging more than five yards to carry. He's out

506
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: at least seventy yards in his last three games. But

507
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 1: the ball is going to Royal Hallu when we get

508
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: near the end zone. And I can't help but feel

509
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 1: this is personal. I went out and said, Freddy Morris

510
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: is gonna have a monster game, and so he gives

511
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 1: it the Hallu three. This is a classic case of

512
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 1: Shannahanni as though, because fantasy owners who have Alfred Moore's

513
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: they all ignored the fact that he had more than

514
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: ninety rushing yards. They all saw the fact that Royal

515
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: Hallu had three touchdowns last week. This this is how

516
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: it works. If you doctored in Shannahan against that would

517
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: have been the end of your case. Absolutely, that's your

518
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,479
Speaker 1: thesis right real quick? Can you play Hallus a flex?

519
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: I just don't trust them six teams on a buy

520
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 1: once you once you flex him, no more goal line carries?

521
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: All right. Jordan Reid has been phenomenal last two weeks

522
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: and week eight is receiving yards of increase in three

523
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 1: straight games. Can you trust Jordan Read enough in this game?

524
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: I think he can. I think the fact that people

525
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: have been targeting tight ends against the Broncos more than

526
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: against any other team in the league says a lot

527
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,640
Speaker 1: about what you can do with Jordan Reading. The fact

528
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: that is Robert Griffith is looking in his direction a

529
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: whole lot more in recent weeks, and speaking of r

530
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: G three, it's coming. You see what he's done the

531
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,119
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. His return to health is going

532
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: to coincide with the mid season point of the season.

533
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: This is when you can trust Robert Griffin going forward. Now,

534
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: going forward on Sunday, He's got a great play against

535
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 1: the Broncos defense and Pierre Garsona someone Marcus who he's

536
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: disappointed you so far, but you know the Bronkers are

537
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,880
Speaker 1: gonna have to account for Jordan Read. This should free

538
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: up Pierre Garson to have a nice day. This absolutely

539
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: should free u Pierre Garson to have a nice day.

540
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: I think the other thing that's going to help Pierre

541
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: Garsona is the fact that you mentioned RG three is

542
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: starting to run the football again. That has been a

543
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: big part of that offense, has been a big part

544
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: of his game in his short time in the National

545
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: Football League. If r G three is running the safeties.

546
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 1: The defensive backs have to respect that and that should

547
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,439
Speaker 1: give Pierre Garsona a chance to get open and make

548
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: some plays. Right, No, Sean Marino. People were upset last

549
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 1: week he only gave you ten Fantasy points. How dare

550
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 1: he only ten? But he's been leading that. He leads

551
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,880
Speaker 1: the league with ten rushing touchdowns. He looks like he's

552
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 1: gonna go back to getting all those goal goal line carries.

553
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,360
Speaker 1: Don't think Peyton Manning is gonna be calling Ronnie Hillman's

554
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,919
Speaker 1: number anymore. But when you talk about Shanahan Agains, the

555
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: birthplace is Shannah Hannigans. We all love no Sean Moreno,

556
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: so it could only mean big game Monty Ball. It

557
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 1: has to be for Shannahannigans. Four touchdowns, all right? Who

558
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 1: wins the game? What do you guys? I have the

559
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: Broncos winning this one. I think they bounced back from

560
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 1: last week and that Redskins defense is still shaky. Broncos

561
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: and a laugh for this is a perfect game for

562
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 1: Payton Manning to get back on track against that defense.

563
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: And don't forget four touchdowns from Monty Ball as well.

564
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: When NFL Fantasy Live returns, two time Pro Bowl wide

565
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 1: out Derek Mason joins the show because Ravens all time

566

Speaker 1: leading receiver standing by as we speak. That is what

567
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 1: we call a ball spin. It's gonna spin until we

00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 1: talks to us on the show. That's next. We gotta

Speaker 1: start picking up now. Do see in front him, he's

570
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: gonna go touchdown, Derek Mason, Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live.

Speaker 1: Please be joined now in studio by one of the

572
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 1: game's grades. Fifteen seasons in the National Football League, over

00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: twelve thousand yards, receiving sixty six touchdowns. Welcome to show,

574
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: Derek Mason, Thanks for having I'm doing well, Thanks for

575
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 1: spending some time with us here. Can talk about some

576
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: wide receivers that you like that are on the way

577
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 1: up in the end. Absolutely absolutely. I mean, you got

578
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 1: a bunch of young guys that are playing well. Justin Blackman,

579
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: um um, Jeff Frees to White Hilton kinda rte Obviously

580
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,199
Speaker 1: he's down to Tennessee. So guys like like that that

581
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 1: are young but are still explosive in the game. All right,

582
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: let's talk about Justin Blackman has the match against San

583
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 1: Francisco this week in London. Why do you like him

584
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: so much? Going forward? Because he's the main guy. Um,

585
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 1: he's he's had over hunting thirty five yards in the

586
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 1: last two or three games. So right now, I think

587
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 1: he's a fantasy dream, a guy that that catches a

588
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: lot of balls. He's targeted a lot, obviously because he's

589
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,119
Speaker 1: number one guy, but he's gonna put up a lot

590
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 1: of numbers. Don't drop mini balls, so that's a good thing. Yeah,

591
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: he's a nominal wide receiver. He came out of the

592
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 1: gates after being suspended four games and it has been very,

593
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 1: very good. What about Kendall Wright When he talks about

594
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: Kendall Wright plays in Tennessee Now reduans out for the year, right,

595
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:11,639
Speaker 1: So a lot of people are looking for that wide

596
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 1: receiver who can help them in PPR leagues, and you

597
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: think Kenna right can be that guy. He can because

598
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 1: this is a guy that that they put in us.

599
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: He's kind of used like a Westwalker type of receiver.

600
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: They put him he can be that good. They put

601
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 1: him in a slote. He has a forty receptions right now. Um,

602
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: they've targeted eight times, so he's leaving team in the

603
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 1: receptions the last two years. He's really a team of receptions.

604
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 1: So what they do with him. They put him in

605
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,360
Speaker 1: the slot, move him around, getting them underneath routes, put

606
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 1: him on the third defensive back, and he seems to

607
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: catch you know, seven eight balls a game. He's targeted

608
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: at least ten times a game, and he's on He's

609
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 1: for ninety one catch. What does it take, though, to

610
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 1: be that type of receiver? When you look at they

611
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: talk about west Walker, I mean, I feel like he's

612
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 1: one of those best guys. The best guy's reading zolves.

613
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: You see that in write. His ability to read zols

614
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 1: and understand what's going on in the defense. I think

615
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 1: I see it every week. Um. The guy has an

616
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: innate ability to find the open spots in his own Um.

617
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 1: You know, he and Jake Locker have a great rupport

618
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 1: right now. The first guy he's looking for when he

619
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 1: when he looks up is kindall right, and that's a

620
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 1: good thing. He's shifty, he's in and out is breaking.

621
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: The good thing about him is that he catch a

622
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 1: five yard path, but he turns into a fifteen or

623
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,640
Speaker 1: twenty yard um gang. So that's always If a quarterback

624
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: is always looking at you first, to go to you first,

625
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 1: that means you're a made man in fantasy. Oh yeah,

626
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: absolutely absolutely, So you know you're gonna catch at least

627
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 1: no less than five or six balls off give me,

628
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 1: give me the man cat you do on your phone

629
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: right now? Put all right that you mentioned Alshan, Jeffrey,

630
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: Brandon Marshally. We even talked this week about how their

631
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: code number ones right now. He said that Jeffrey could

632
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: be the best receiver the Bears I've ever seen. Why

633
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 1: do you like him so much? Because with the with

634
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: the guy like him. He's big, um, he's fast, he's strong,

635
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: he's able to run those intermediate ross but able to

636
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 1: go deep as well. So I like him because all

637
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: of the attention goes towards the other season. So when

638
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 1: you're a second guy, you get the you get the

639
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 1: more or less you get the not so good defensive back.

640
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: So you want to get not so good because the

641
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 1: back and you're catching a lot of ball. So in Chicago,

642
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: I know that the quarterbacks down right now, but he

643
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: still is a guy that I think they're to put up.

644
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: You know, five of six cats in the game because

645
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: of the defense is shipping to the other side of

646
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: so much. What about that? What's it like for receiver

647
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: when you have to change quarterbacks like that. It all depends.

648
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: If you've been working with the second quarterback for for

649
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: some time and practice, then there shouldn't be a big

650
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: of a drop off. But if you hadn't been working

651
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: with the second theme quarterback, then there's that you gotta

652
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: figure him out. He has to figure you out. He

653
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: has to know when to throw the ball when you

654
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: come out of your break, so that that's really when

655
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: they when you try to build that report with the

656
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: second unit quarterback, it's kind of hard. So hopefully they

657
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: can get that thing going. But is there any stopping

658
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: to me al Sean Jefferies, Because from a defensive standpoint,

659
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: when we see we're going to a meeting room and said, okay,

660
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: we know we got Brandon Marshall. At one end, we're thinking, okay,

661
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 1: we gotta take away Brandon Marshall. But what happens offensively

662
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: when you know you get guy like our guy? Help

663
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 1: me out here, I Shan Jeffrey, I was shot. He's

664
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: exploding on the other end. How does that work? How

665
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 1: does the dynamic work for red zone targets? I think

666
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: what happens is when you get a guy like him,

667
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 1: he's an automatic red zone guy. The guy's over six

668
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: ft one UM, he's big and he's strong, so he's

669
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 1: automatic red zons red zone guys, so you don't know

670
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 1: whether you're gonna shift the one side or the other.

671
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 1: But with him, you know, he he has that ability

672
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: to go up and get the ball and and be

673
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 1: physical at the line of scrimin. So those smaller dbs

674
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: really can't press him, and that's at a disadvantage for them.

675
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: So with him, he get a lot off coverage, so

676
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: he can run those slants, those favor routes in the

677
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: back of the corner and typically you know the quarterback

678
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 1: and hit him and it's typically a touch I let's

679
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: say you look at Derek's wide receivers on the rise.

680
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: Some of them we talked about a couple others. We

681
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: spent some time on man NFL Fantasy Live. We just

682
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: talked about Terrence Williams a little bit and t Y

683
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: Hilton someone got a couple of touchdowns. No, Reggie Wayne,

684
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 1: you see his big upticking, his production. I think it

685
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: will be he was targeted a lot. Even what Regulain there,

686
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: he was the second most targeted guy on the team.

687
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: So with Reguway and gone. I think his his production

688
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 1: will go up tremendously. But what do you think about

689
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: Darius Hayward Bay? Is it going to be hilting over

690
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: Heyward Bay when we're talking about fantasy, when we're talking

691
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: about production. I think so, because Heyward Bay has a

692
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 1: tendency to drop football. He dropped a lot of these

693
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 1: last couple of games. So a quarterback has to have

694
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 1: a confidence that you're gonna catch the ball and you're

695
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: gonna be what you're supposed to be at the right time.

696
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: So I think that's why t Y Hilton will be

697
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: a fantasy dream unless you get points for drops. And

698
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: ar's the guy, Derek your time and thanks for having me,

699
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: all right, there's Derek Mason. When NFL Fantasy Live returns

700
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: have guys like Colin Kaepernick and Larry Fitzgerald earned a

701
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: spot back in your starting line up for Week eight,

702
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 1: and with six teams out of buy, our experts are

703
00:31:44,760 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 1: rolling through those all important spots starts. We're back after this, Hey, everybody,

704
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: It's me Adam Rank. Every Friday I published my likes

705
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: and dislikes and movies, TV, comic books, and sometimes even

706
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: some fantasy football. This week I review bad Grandpa. But

707
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 1: you know what, we can talk about red barbs some

708
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: other time. Let's start with the guys who will actually

709
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: play Sunday. My first like of the week is Colin Kaepernick. Yes,

710
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,479
Speaker 1: welcome back to the like legder. Colin. We missed you

711
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: mostly we missed your running. Hey. Look it's the unstoppable

712
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: six month p two pounder who wants to be a

713
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: pocket passer. Thankfully, he's gotten away from that as his

714
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: rushing yards have increased in three consecutive weeks. Now he's

715
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: got the Jaguars, who have allowed the eighth most fantasy

716
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: points to quarterbacks this season. Colin is going to light

717
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: it up in London and you would be out of

718
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: your crust to not start him. A quarterback I don't

719
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: like this week is Terrelle Prior. He was a nice

720
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 1: little spots start for for you from time to time,

721
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 1: but avoid him against Pittsburgh. Prior hasn't thrown for three

722
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 1: hundred yards in a game this year, and don't expect

723
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 1: that to change against the Steelers, who have allowed the

724
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 1: third fewest points to fantasy quarterbacks this season. But you don't.

725
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: Let's stick with that game. And a I that I

726
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 1: like is Levan Bell because he has scored at least

727
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 1: nine fantasy points and two of its three games that

728
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: he's played this year. Of course, those are the games

729
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: I didn't start him in my league of record. But

730
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: enough about that. I'm confident about him this week because

731
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: the Raiders have allowed the tenth most points the fantasy

732
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: running backs, and really it just gives me an excuse

733
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: to root against the Raiders like I needed it. Sorry,

734
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: moved on. I don't like Chris Ivory against the Bengals.

735
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: Ivery got back on the fantasy radar last week when

736
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 1: he carried the ball thirty four times for a hundred

737
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: and four yards against the Patriots, but I don't like

738
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: the matchup against the Bengals, who have allowed the seventh

739
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,239
Speaker 1: fewest fantasy points to running backs this season. Plus, who

740
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 1: wants to stare at those Bengals uniforms all afternoon? Not me?

741
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: And finally, it's Larry Fitzgerald, who I absolutely like this week. Now,

742
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 1: there have been times this season where I've had to

743
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: administer some tough love with Larry and I've left him

744
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: on the bench, but I feel like we've been spot

745
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: on with him playing with the right times benching at

746
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: the right times, and I really like this match up

747
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: against the Falcons, who have allowed the fourth most Fantasy

748
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 1: points to receivers. I'm gonna say Larry dominates. And now

749
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 1: let's take a look. It's some more guys that I like,

750
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: and just like Tom Brady, I'm all in on Zach Stacy.

751
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 1: I understand this matchup is bad, but the Seattle Seahawks

752
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 1: have allowed at least one hundred dusting yards in six

753
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: of their last seven road games. You see, Eric Decker.

754
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 1: There some guys I don't like, Alex Smith, Chris Johnson,

755
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace, Jared Cook. Jared Cook should never be on there.

756
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,919
Speaker 1: I never will like him again. He's burned this way

757
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: too many times. And that's it for my likes and dislikes.

758
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 1: Time now to send it over to Jason Smith and

759
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: the fellas for some spots starts in week eight. Thank

760
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: you very much, Mr Reck, appreciate it. Time now for

761
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,440
Speaker 1: our Hotels dot Com Fantasy Spotlight Spots starts of the week.

762
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: He's maybe some guys who are never playing again after

763
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 1: this week, but they could be big for you this week. Bark,

764
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: who's your spot start? Well, this guy may be big

765
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,240
Speaker 1: for me. It's Christian Ponder. I know Christian Ponder got

766
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 1: you know, jumped over by Josh Freeman. Now he's back

767
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: into the fold of it. I think that Christian Ponder

768
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 1: is really gonna try to get his spot back and

769
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: make a statement at this juncture right now in his career.

770
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 1: He's either gonna be a hit or miss. We look

771
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: back till his last game against Cleveland, he really stepped

772
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 1: up for these guys. I mean, he had twenty one

773
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: Fantasy points, and he got better in each and every

774
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: game that he played in until he of course got

775
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: booted by Josh Freeman and then of course Matt Castle's will.

776
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 1: But this is a game that I really like, going

777
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,399
Speaker 1: up against this Packer's defense for him to do something big.

778
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: And he's also had some pretty big games against the

779
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,320
Speaker 1: Packers and his young career. Remember he had that big debut,

780
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 1: he had a big game last year. So Ponder could

781
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 1: be somebody that you want this week, just for this week.

782
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 1: Just I don't want to go with Josh. I don't

783
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 1: want to go with with Campbell and Clemens and those guys.

784
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 1: Betty is Nope, all right, let's get a spot start

785
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 1: from Adam Reich. Mr Rank, who is your big spot

786
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: start of the week. This is this a guy I'm

787
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 1: never going to start again because it seems like once

788
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:39,919
Speaker 1: a month I'm talking about Kenny Stills because I never

789
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: learned my It's like going back to Shaky's bunch of lunch.

790
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 1: I never learned my lesson. But I'm gonna start Kenny

791
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 1: Stills this week because of the matchup. The Bills have

792
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 1: allowed this second most fantasy points to receivers this season.

793
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: They've allowed at least two touchdown passes in six other

794
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: their seven games this year. And let's be honest, there's

795
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: no secret that Kenny skills his game. He just runs deep.

796
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: Drew Brees takes a shot three or four times a game.

797
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: So you're either gonna get zero or you're gonna get

798
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 1: ten because he's gonna catch a forty yard touchdown past.

799
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: So I like those odds. There are six teams on

800
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 1: a buy Reggie Wayne My my my lineup is struggling,

801
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: so Kenny still is in there. But what do you got? Jason?

802
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 1: All Right, I'm gonna go back to the game. You

803
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: spend a lot of time on the Steelers and the

804
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders. I feel like I'm going all in on

805
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 1: the Steelers this week, and I'm all in on the

806
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 1: Steelers defense. Not a great fantasy defense this year, so

807
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: the likely available in your league right now to go

808
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: pick him up. The Oakland Raiders have allowed the second

809
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 1: most fantasy points to fantasy defenses in the last month.

810
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: Dick lebo sixteen and two against rookie quarterbacks since two

811
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 1: thousand and four. Granted, Terrell Prior is not a rookie,

812
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 1: but for all intents and purposes, his first year starting,

813
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 1: he is. This is a big game for the Steelers.

814
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: Prior has the pension to throw interceptions. I see a

815
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 1: pick six, I see a good twelve to fifteen point

816
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 1: game coming from Pittsburgh this week. This is a great

817
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: time to play him again. May never do it again,

818
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 1: but this could be the way I love it. All Right,

819
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 1: what do you got markets? Well, I'm going with Terence

820
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 1: wins And I know he's a guy who at this

821
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 1: point he might not even be a spot start anymore.

822
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 1: He's kind of on that board a line of getting

823
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: into your lineup on more than just one week at

824
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: a time. But Terrence Williams has played some really good football.

825
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: Remember once upon a time when Mas Austin was the

826
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 1: number three receiver in Dallas, and he's kind of jump.

827
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 1: Terence Williams is kind of doing that same thing now.

828
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: He's had a receiving touchdown in three straight games. He's

829
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 1: going up against the Lions who are having some issues

830
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: in their secondary. Chris Houston got bench last week for

831
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 1: Darius Slay. They're trying to figure some things out there

832
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: and the Lions are giving up more than twenties six

833
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 1: points per game two fantasy wide receivers. Williams is a

834
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 1: guy who was taken over. I think is that number

835
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,720
Speaker 1: two spot in the Dallas offense and the wide receiving

836
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 1: Colip Yeah, Miles Austin is really just basically disappearing from

837
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: this offense with five catches in the last four games

838
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 1: he's played. I don't it doesn't go back to him.

839
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna stick to Terence for him. He's

840
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:44,879
Speaker 1: pretty much booted him out of that position, all right.

841
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,920
Speaker 1: Here's our Fantasy Spotlight spot Starts presented by Hotels dot Com,

842
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: par projecting a near nineteen point day for Christian Ponder Ranks.

843
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 1: Got a double digit date from Kenny Stills. I got

844
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,240
Speaker 1: fifteen points for the Steelers defense and Marcus twelve points

845
00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: for Terence Williams. You're right, he could be in your

846
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 1: lineup very frequently. Moving on. Those are spot Starts of

847

852
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 1: How is weather going to affect the Tilts on Sunday,

853
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 1: specifically the game across the pond? Let's go to a

854
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,720
Speaker 1: fish called Jim Coosick, our resident fantasy meteorologists from ABC

855
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:32,280
Speaker 1: four in Salt Lake City. Jim always a pleasure, Jason,

856
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 1: And being that they were coming up on the dinner

857
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: hour right now, why not started off with one of

858
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 1: the UK's best fish and chips. Who them's good eating

859
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 1: but uncanny resemblance or not? You make the call on

860
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 1: that one there. I'll make the call on u K

861
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: weather because we're headed to Wembley. Okay, here's Ireland, here's uh,

862
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 1: you know, the British Isles. London is down here. Now

863
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: the reason why a pinpoint this is because we have

864
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,800
Speaker 1: this that's a storm system that's going to cross the Channel,

865
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: but most of the wet weather associated with it is

866
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: before kick off, so the actual forecast doesn't call for

867
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 1: much more than a passing shower. But the wind is

868
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: the based and that's gonna be the huge concern as

869
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 1: we go through Sunday. At Wembley, you're out of the

870
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:29,359
Speaker 1: southwest cross field gusting over thirty sustained near twenty. So

871
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: we all know that Phil Dawson and Josh Gobi have

872
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 1: not been at their best. So I gotta call you

873
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 1: guys out. And even though Chad Henny grew up a

874
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,880
Speaker 1: stone's throw, he's a Pennsylvania boy like myself, but he

875
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: chose Michigan over penn State. Come man, here's the problem

876
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 1: with that. You get that gusty wind and the ball

877
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: oh whoa loa loa flutter ball. The wet weather is

878
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: not the concern, the flutterball is. But back in the

879
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 1: lower forty eight, all the stormy weather stays up close

880
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 1: to Canada, so we're looking good in that respect. But listen,

881
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: I gotta call some other guys out here, call me

882
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 1: crazy Alex Smith's been on fire painting. Yeah, am I

883
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: saying not to start painting. I'm not saying that. I'm

884
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:22,760
Speaker 1: just saying think about it in direct sunlight. Brandon Wheedham,

885
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 1: Alex Smith, Eli Payton. If you ain't putting me high

886
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 1: black on, why would you expect awesome fantasy stats? Just

887
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,839
Speaker 1: a little f y I food for thought, as they

888
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 1: say as we head to the dinner hour, gentlemen, this

889
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,359
Speaker 1: is like the third week in a row. He's called

890
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 1: out brand. He's not even starting this boy. Alright, here's

891
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 1: our Midseason Fantasy Award nominees. You got to vote all

892
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,319
Speaker 1: week long. We've been giving it out hardware throughout the week.

893
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,760
Speaker 1: Ending with a flourish will be Peyton Manning, Jamal Charles

894
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 1: or Jimmy Graham taking on the mid Season one Fantasy

895
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 1: mt the award. Well, I've got to see sneaky suspicion.

896
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: This could be the young quarterback out of Tennessee right here,

897
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:15,239
Speaker 1: the young quarterbacks. Let's say drum roll, play one a

898
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: national cham Here we go, and your mid season Fantasy

899
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:25,320
Speaker 1: m v is rises in the occasion in the mid season,

900
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: like Peyton any any worry, he has a bit of

901
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 1: a down ticking production in the second half. He has

902
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 1: way too many weapons around him to take a decline.

903
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 1: I'm for Peyton Manning to be stronger for the rest

904
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: of the season. You know, I think it takes a

905
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:38,920
Speaker 1: little bit of a step back just because we get

906
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,400
Speaker 1: to the colder weather and late fall, early into the winter.

907
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna hurt him a little bit. But

908
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 1: I still take you know, Peyton Manning at n is

909
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 1: better than a lot of quarterbacks. An he's not buying that.

910
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: He's not alright. Time now to take a look at

911
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 1: some of the big questions you have coming our way

912
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 1: from Fantasy Genius. Will get to as many as we

913
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: can from now until the end of the show. Better

914
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: play you this week. Tom Brady or Russell Wilson. I'm

915
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 1: gonna start Tom Brady. He's been historically good against the

916
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins. Four teen touchdowns, just three turnovers in his

917
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,399
Speaker 1: last six games against those As a matter of fact,

918
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 1: he hasn't turned the ball over against them in his

919
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 1: last three home games against the Dolphins. He's a great

920
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: start this week. Jordan Cameron or Jordan Reid. You know,

921
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 1: because Jordan Cameron has a new quarterback. I'm gonna go

922
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: with Jordan read in this situation, I got RG three

923
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,440
Speaker 1: read go read better flex Pierre Garson or Jocquiz Rogers.

924
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 1: I'm going with Pierre Garson just because the Broncos secondary

925
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: has had its issues this year, and with Steven Jackson

926
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: possibly coming back from the Foulcon that may take a

927
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 1: little bit away from Jocquiz Rodgers. All right, Jared Boykin

928
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: or Harry Douglas. I'm gonna go with Jared Boykin. He

929
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 1: started to get a little bit of a rhythm with

930
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,399
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. He targeted him six times two weeks ago.

931
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 1: Last week he got a bout of completions with him,

932
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: So I'm going I can't believe he hat knowing Harry

933
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 1: does it? Start handing on Harry Douglass. I like Boykin better.

934
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:54,879
Speaker 1: Flex Joseph Randall or Zach Stacy. You know I'm gonna

935
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,439
Speaker 1: go with the Zack Stacey in this situation. Uncle's ex Stacy.

936
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: All right, Marcus, Justin black Man or Josh Gordon. Who's

937
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: the best. Going with Justin Blackman? East of the Atlantic

938
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,400
Speaker 1: v the forty Night or secondary has actually been very vulnerable.

939
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, yes, I'm going Justin Black. All right,

940
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,439
Speaker 1: that's okay, it's the whole thing, all right. Levian beller

941
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 1: Geo Bernard, real quick, I'm going Levian Bell, Bell Bell,

942
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 1: Levian Bell. There we go. All Right, that doesn't for us.
