Hey, now, 0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:05.800 we got a lot of people here at Studio thirty 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:08.600 four making a clap here in midtown Manhattan at Rock 0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:12.600 and Riley's. I got my all rise Hammer Judge Gavel 0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:16.160 because the Yankees are only one win away from the 0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:19.480 World Series, as you know. But we're gonna talk football 0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:22.560 because Week seven gets kicked off Chiefs and Raiders. It 0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:24.679 is a big show. I know you guys want to 0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:26.800 know who to sit, who to start, who to fade, 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:28.600 who to play, and who you need to win your 0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:32.520 leagues and win that cash. I got my man, Chris Bovona, 0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:37.119 the Manimal even it's so hot that we sweat steam 0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:39.800 and Chris. I also just heard for the first time 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:43.600 a very new seasonal commercial for the Fantasy Sports Radio 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:46.080 network that had a certain vampire on it. I really 0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:48.680 like that ad. Tell that vampire, I said, it's a 0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:51.160 great ad. But regardless, what we're gonna do is we're 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:53.320 gonna give you some of the injury reports from around 0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:56.680 the NFL this today. A couple of people are trending 0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:58.960 in the right direction for week seven, A couple of 0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:01.680 people are trending in the wrong direction for week seven. 0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:05.280 I'm gonna give you my breakdown of Thursday Night Football, 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:08.080 Chiefs and Raiders. I think there's somebody that you really 0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.160 need to go with, and there's somebody you really need 0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:12.800 to fade in this game. I'll tell you my diamond 0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:16.120 and my food gazing for Thursday Night Football. I'm also 0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:20.760 gonna be taking your calls at eight four four, eight, four, three, six, eight, 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.320 seven to nine. The phone lines will be open later 0:02:23.360 --> 0:02:26.480 on in the show, and the cipher is strong. We 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:29.320 did our game of inches, we shouted out the winners. 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:31.200 We're gonna find a way to kind of keep track 0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:33.360 of that. I gotta ask my man Chris Bavona, how 0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:35.720 we could do that. We also gotta pull question up 0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:38.400 for you today. As always on Thursday, what we do 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:40.200 is we try to find out what do you think 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:41.959 is the winning par lay for you to win a 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.960 little bit of cash on Thursday night football. We have 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:47.520 one of these situations. If you listen to Fantasy Freestyle, 0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:51.760 you know then I usually love the home dogs, and 0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:55.320 we have that scenario to tonight. The Oakland Raiders are 0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:59.440 at home. They are giving three points to the Kansas 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:01.880 City chief So is this a situation where you ride 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:04.680 with the home dogs or do you think the Chiefs 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:06.960 are that good, that they're that good of a team 0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:09.600 that they can go into Oakland and get a tough 0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:13.200 road divisional win. They're giving up three points. The over 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:16.200 under on this game is also forty six and a half, 0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:18.840 So you gotta wonder, is uh is this the week 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:22.320 where a Marii Cooper get to going. Is this the 0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:25.600 week where Beast Mode get to going at home in 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.400 prime time for for the home fans. I'll let you know, 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:30.600 and I give you my diamond and my food gazy 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:33.840 for Thursday Night football. Come on right back. Everybody's getting 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:38.080 into the holiday feeling, you know, pumpkin spice apples, all 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:40.560 that good stuff. I was looking at Halloween costumes. I 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:43.520 think I might be a national anthem singer. Let's see 0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:46.040 what people do as I ride around. But don't worry 0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:49.160 about all that injury reports in my Thursday Night preview. 0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:52.800 When we come back here dropping hashtag stats over beats, 0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:55.840 it's Dan Martinez on the Fantasy Freestyle and the award 0:03:55.840 --> 0:04:01.680 winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network coming right back.

We keep it a gang 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:45.919 that just like the f A B O L O 0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:49.160 us over here dropping status over beats is the Fantasy 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:52.240 Free style right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:54.599 Getting you ready for the start of Week seven. I'll 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.479 give you my jus and don't my diamonds and fool 0:04:57.520 --> 0:05:00.280 gazes and h Thursday Night Football come up on a 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:01.919 hot second, But first let me catch you up on 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:04.360 all the news and notes from around practice today in 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:07.120 the NFL. First of all, we started Indianapolis where the 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:10.400 offensive coordinator there. This is that because Robert Turban is 0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:11.800 out now for the rest of the year. You saw 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.280 that kind of some a gruesome injury had to his arm. 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:16.600 Towards the end of Monday Night Football, they said that 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:20.359 the loss of Robert Turban means more carries from Marlon Mac. Now, 0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:22.960 I've you know, we've heard this before, right how Mac 0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:24.680 needs to be a bigger part of the offense and 0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:27.440 then he only got two touches last week. But I 0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:31.000 think you know, as time moves on, Yes, Marlon Mack 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:34.160 is going to grow in his share of opportunity in 0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:36.560 that offense. But I think it's gonna be a slow build. Okay, 0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:39.279 Frank Gore isn't going anywhere, and Frank Gore is really 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:42.279 was gonna take that over that short yardage work that 0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:44.800 you saw Robert Turban doing. To keep an eye on 0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:47.920 Marlon mac especially in dynasty leagues, because as you know, 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:50.200 Gore is getting a little bit along in the tooth. 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:51.919 And I've been telling you guys about this for a 0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:56.120 couple of days now. Teddy Bridgewater guarantees that he will 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:58.839 play this season. He says, quote, I did not feel 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:02.640 rusty after he practice on Wednesday. I'm telling you, you know, 0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:06.640 Bradford's knee is a big time question mark case. Keenum 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:09.680 is you know, a backup quarterback. I can really see 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:13.479 Teddy Bridgewater being viable in about you know, three or 0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:15.960 four weeks, and that might be when you need him 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:18.720 in a fantasy playoff scenario and super flex or in 0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:21.760 two quarterback leagues. Let me give you also the practice reports. 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:24.320 These are people who were practicing. Jordan Matthews was clear 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:26.479 to practice. He was practicing. But the thing is he's 0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:29.800 still not hatching passes with that hand that he had 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:33.120 surgically repaired a few weeks back, so he's practicing. Maybe 0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:35.080 he's just getting back in the game shape. I still 0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:38.200 don't know if he is going to play this Sunday 0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:41.080 for Buffalo against the Tampa Bay Bucks. It would be 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.520 a decent matchup form and would really help out Tyrod 0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:47.560 Taylor Sterling. Shepherd is back practicing, Okay, he's trending in 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.560 the right direction. That's a good sign to help out 0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:51.800 Eli Manning. But they are playing against the legion of 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:54.359 Boom and Seatattle this week, so even if he is healthy, 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:56.680 you may not throw him right back into your lineups 0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:59.680 right away. To Barrius Thomas also practicing, This is a 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:03.360 big time help for the Denver Broncos, okay as they 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:06.280 go to Los Angeles to take on the Chargers, because 0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:08.600 remember Manny Sanders is already out, so it's going to 0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:10.720 see him trending in the right direction. Someone in the 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:15.560 wrong direction is Delaney Walker. Midweek add to the injury report. 0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:17.760 You never like to see a midweek ad. This is 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:21.400 a calf issue for Delaney Walker. Check that out as 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:24.280 the week goes along. These guys were limited today. Jeremy 0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:27.040 Macklin was wearing a non contact Jersey. I don't know 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:28.560 if he's gonna go. I don't know if it matters, 0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:30.680 because that Baltimore offense is not something you want a 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:33.559 piece of. Jamis Winston was limited, but the beat Riders 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.239 down there in Tampa do not expect him to play. 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:38.520 You only had like one dump off pass, you know, 0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:41.120 so he's not really opening it up with that shoulder 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:45.480 anytime soon. Paul Perkins was quite limited. Rob Kelly was limited. 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:48.119 And then these are the guys that did not practice. Again, 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:50.000 Remember I said, you want to see some of the 0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:52.360 guys who don't get a d NP on Wednesday. You 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:54.600 want to see them at least be a limited guy 0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:57.160 like you know, the Macklins, like the Rob Kelly's. But 0:07:57.200 --> 0:08:00.440 these are guys that still are not practicing this week, 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:04.320 so you may need to start making contingency plans for 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:07.520 the following the Versts. Davante Parker with that ankle injury, 0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:10.320 um the offensive coordinator there, said it would be a 0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:12.640 miracle if he actually does suit up. He's gonna be 0:08:12.680 --> 0:08:15.200 more on the doubtful side. Terrence West still not practicing, 0:08:15.320 --> 0:08:17.280 But again, why do you want anything to do with 0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:21.680 that Baltimore Ravens offense anyway, Ben Watson did not practice, 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:24.400 even more reason to fade that offense. I don't care 0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:27.480 if Mike Wallace was practicing or not. It does look 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:30.160 like he was downgraded from limited, all the more reason 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:35.959 to fade this Baltimore offense this week. Okay. Blao Powell, however, 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:39.120 was practicing and they're saying he might play more. Matt 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:43.559 Forte is also practicing. Okay, so the that means it's 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:46.160 the end of Elijah McGuire. But I don't want any 0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:48.280 part of this backfield. The only jet I want on 0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:50.440 my roster this week, or at least starting this week, 0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:54.040 is Austin Safarian Jenkins. Also Leonard Fournett. I think this 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:58.079 is gonna be the big one. Leonard Fournette, uh, still 0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:00.800 not practicing. He's got that ankle. He says he expects 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:02.480 to play. But I'm telling you, especially if you're a 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:05.120 four net owner, you need to get Chris Ivory as 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:07.600 a handcuffed because I don't know if four nets gonna go. 0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:10.200 I actually think because the Jaguars have a by in 0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:14.240 week eight and they're playing against I believe Indianapolis, which 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:17.440 is a you know, blunt, guts, trash kind of defense. Yeah, 0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:19.920 they are at Indie. I think that they could try 0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:22.160 to get through this game with Ivory and not four 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:25.440 net Kelvin Benjamin also not practicing yesterday, I said, I 0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:28.200 thought it was just maintenance. Today, Ron rivera head coach, 0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:30.439 came out and said they're a little concerned because it's 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:33.360 swelling in the knee that he has had surgery on. 0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:36.400 That means I like Devon function just a little more 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:39.679 this week. That also means I like Christian McCaffrey a 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:41.840 little bit more. This week. You may see him in 0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:44.600 some DFS lineups. And remember, tomorrow will be giving out 0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:47.120 my DFS line and I'm gonna be making that happen, 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:50.319 I believe with my man Chris the analyst Ventra. As 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:52.600 we give out our DFS lineups for weeks seven, the 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:54.760 last one I want to tell you about is out 0:09:54.760 --> 0:09:59.520 in Tennessee. DeMarco Murray. Okay, DeMarco Murray didn't practice today 0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:02.080 because of that hamstring injury. They are saying that his 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:05.679 status for weeks seven is in doubt, and that reminds me. 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:08.480 If you listen to the Fantasy Freestyle, Okay, this is 0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:10.600 how I hook you up. I try and help you out, 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:12.600 not by just giving you a fish, but by teaching 0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:15.440 you how to fish. And what I told you on 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:18.600 Monday is that you can always do something like make 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:22.400 a speculative ad on Monday and try to pick up 0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:25.920 somebody just in case something happens, and then you could 0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.599 have your real asset moving forward. If you have the 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:31.480 last spot on your roster that you're okay churning from 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:34.160 week to week, you know, or someone like a second 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.200 tight end that you you know that you're using as 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.679 a fill in, or a weird bye week guy that 0:10:38.720 --> 0:10:41.480 you didn't realize it still had. You could drop that 0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:43.960 guy and in some format, you could pick up a 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.320 spec ad that's still a free agent for the Monday 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:48.480 night game because a lot of times they don't become 0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:51.679 on waivers until their game kicks off. I told you 0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:54.040 on Monday to do that. Hey, Bavona, how about we 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:56.600 run it back? What did I tell people on Monday? 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:58.640 And why might that be so great now with the 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:01.559 news that they are a little bit scarned about DeMarco 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:05.240 Murray for this week? Go ahead, Chris, what you wanna do? 0:11:05.520 --> 0:11:10.760 Wanna be callers brawlers? Pick up someone on Monday Night 0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:13.560 Football because then what happens? What happens if there is 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:15.439 an injury, and then all of a sudden you're sitting 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:17.760 pretty with a new starter. You can do. This is 0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:20.920 a week two week basis. Pick up some speculative ad 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:23.640 from the Monday night football game and you never know. 0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:26.600 It really doesn't cost you anything, and it may work 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:28.800 out for you if there's injuries in that game. And 0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:31.800 what do you know? Football is a dangerous sport. That's 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:33.679 just a little trick right there that I've learned over 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:37.200 my travels. Okay, pick up Derrick Henry. There you go. 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:39.560 I told y'all on Monday to pick up Derrick Henry. 0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:43.520 Now when everybody's like, oh Tomorco Murray's out, I need 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:46.160 Derrick Henry. Derrick Henry was owned in like sixty three 0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:50.040 of leagues before the game. He's now up to like 0:11:50.200 --> 0:11:53.600 seventy five. It's ridiculous. I told you you could have 0:11:53.600 --> 0:11:57.280 been ahead of the curve. Hashtag dropping stats overbeats which 0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:59.600 your boy speeds and spitting statistician one of the other 0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:03.360 hashtags we did, Chris, Remember we did a hashtag game 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:06.440 of inches this week on trending Tuesdays, and a lot 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:08.880 of people came really came through. Here's what I want 0:12:08.920 --> 0:12:11.760 to do, Chris, because remember I gave out the nominees 0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:13.600 and Bavona of the Manimal, you were the one who 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:17.400 decided who won, um, and I believe remember our winner 0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:21.080 was at swagon point. He tied one eleven one eleven, 0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:24.160 had Austin Safarian Jenkins and that touchdown that became a 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:26.719 touch back. What I need you to do, Chris can 0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:29.280 either you or Ventra if you're listening down there in 0:12:29.280 --> 0:12:32.920 the in the dungeon there and the Fantasy Sports dungeon. Um, 0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:35.800 what I need you to do is, you know, start 0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:40.839 a word document or a you know, like an Excel spreadsheet, 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:43.040 a Google doc or something. And I need you to 0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:46.160 do I need us to track all of the hashtag 0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:49.480 Game of Inches winners. Okay, so for Week six it 0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:53.400 was this guy be Underscore Petty at swagon point and 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:56.160 you could just write somewhere tied one eleven, one eleven, 0:12:56.600 --> 0:13:00.359 had Austin Safarian Jenkins, like you know, touchdown touch back, 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:03.000 and also had Jamis as the tiebreaker because in that 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:05.679 league it was the quarterback points that were the tiebreaker, 0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:08.040 and he had Jamis Winston who got hit hurt in 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:11.600 the first quarter of that game. Can we like catalog 0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:14.160 this somewhere, because what I wanna do is that next 0:13:14.160 --> 0:13:16.240 week when we do Hashtag Game eventues, we're gonna get 0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:18.720 all the winners right, and then maybe at the end 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:21.400 of the season we'll see who had the worst beat 0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:24.680 within the cipher all season long. I think that's something 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:27.280 we should be able to do. Okay, So I want 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:29.360 you guys down to track it, and this we can 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:31.439 remember and it could be the thing like that's now 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:34.920 the Hashtag Game eventches champion until someone can knock it off. 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:37.800 Uh knock it off its perch as champion. We're gonna 0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:40.480 keep that one going. I also mentioned to you that, uh, 0:13:41.480 --> 0:13:43.960 it's Halloween time soon, so I was thinking, good about 0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:45.880 a Halloween costume. I think I should be a national 0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:48.520 anthem singer, or maybe I get a fro, get a 0:13:48.520 --> 0:13:51.360 football jersey and be cap you know. But they're talking 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:54.800 about these owners meetings in New York this week, and 0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:56.559 I saw it was interesting. Michael Bennett says, we're not 0:13:56.600 --> 0:13:58.680 even gonna come to the table and negotiate about this 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:01.320 until Colin cap Nick has a job. I thought that 0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:03.760 was interesting. The other thing I wanted to remind people 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:08.520 of is like sometimes this is just about billionaires, piston 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:12.120 off billionaires. I heard the owner of the Jaguars this week, 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:15.880 uh con He said that part of the reason Trump 0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:18.640 is against the NFL is because Trump has had a 0:14:18.800 --> 0:14:22.400 long storied history of trying to be in the NFL 0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:25.480 as an owner. If you remember, he tried to buy 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:28.720 the Buffalo Bills in two thousand fourteen. If you remember, 0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:31.480 our commander and tweets also tried to get involved with 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:33.840 the NFL in the nineteen eighties, and when he couldn't, 0:14:34.000 --> 0:14:35.760 he would up, you know, being a big part of 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:39.720 the USFL. So there's a long standing kind of dynamic 0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:41.520 there with guys like Trump and say a guy like 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:45.359 Jerry Jones and some of these other big time billionaires 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:48.360 in this fraternity. And Conna had some interesting things to 0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:50.520 say that it is kind of like a personal vendetta. 0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:53.560 And as we all know, our president does not carry 0:14:53.560 --> 0:14:57.160 out personal vendettas at all against anybody, whether it be 0:14:57.240 --> 0:15:00.760 Lion Ted, Crookie, Hillary or anybody else. But hey, I 0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:02.760 just thought everybody should know that when we come back, 0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:04.520 here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna open up the 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:06.800 phone lines. The number the call is eight four four 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.600 eight four three six eight seven nine.

But tonight we got the 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:05.800 Raiders home Dogs for three point home Dogs over under. 0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:08.760 Like I said, it's about forty six and a half. Okay, 0:17:08.840 --> 0:17:10.320 here's what I'm gonna tell you, here's what I like 0:17:10.640 --> 0:17:13.240 in this game. I'm gonna start off with Michael Crabtree. Okay, 0:17:13.280 --> 0:17:15.919 because I've been telling you guys for a long time 0:17:16.200 --> 0:17:19.879 that I think Michael Crabtree is better than a Marii Cooper. 0:17:19.920 --> 0:17:21.960 I don't know why Cooper keeps on getting all this love. 0:17:22.240 --> 0:17:25.240 Michael Crabtree is a very consistent high end wide receiver. 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:28.160 To my man, Matt Modico wall Street, I call him. 0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:30.080 He just tweeted something out. Check this out. In the 0:17:30.160 --> 0:17:34.840 last sixteen games they've played between A Marie Cooper and 0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:38.760 Michael Crabtree, check this out. Cooper has eleven targets, but 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:42.359 Crabtree is better at one thirty five targets. Cooper has 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:46.600 sixty five receptions, but Crabtree is better at eighty five receptions. 0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:50.960 Cooper has seven hundred fourteen yards through the air. Crabtree 0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:54.360 better by over two hundred yards with nine hundred fifty two. 0:17:54.600 --> 0:17:57.560 Amari Cooper with five touchdowns in his last sixteen games, 0:17:57.760 --> 0:18:02.679 Michael Crabtree with eight. In every single category, Mike Crabtree 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:05.320 is a better wide receiver than a Marii Cooper. And 0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:08.159 now there's a mental thing going on with a Marie Cooper. 0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:11.000 It's in his head. The drops I think are an issue. 0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:14.560 That's why Amari Cooper is my foo gaze for Thursday 0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:17.080 Night Football. He has not gotten off the schneide, and 0:18:17.119 --> 0:18:19.879 I think with Marcus Peters along across from him, I 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:22.680 don't think it is an easy tax, to be quite honest, though, 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:25.920 if I was the Chiefs, I put Peters on Michael Crabtree, 0:18:26.119 --> 0:18:29.399 I'd let Amari Cooper eat against my second cornerback and 0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:32.320 still think that that's the best matchup for me. Um 0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:36.000 on the Oakland side, my diamond, I like Travis Kelsey. Okay, 0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:40.000 I like Travis Kelsey tonight. Oakland is notoriously bad against 0:18:40.000 --> 0:18:42.040 the tight end. And you know, like you're being like, 0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:44.320 oh speech, oh well, you're picking the best, the second 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:46.119 best tight end in the league to be your diamond. 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:48.359 It's not a diamond. There's this guy I like. I 0:18:48.359 --> 0:18:50.520 think he gets off the schnide. I think he's actually 0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:53.240 the focus of the passing game because I do not 0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:56.640 think necessarily this is a good game for Tyreek Hill. 0:18:56.880 --> 0:18:59.320 Tyreek Hill, Listen, he popped off in Week one against 0:18:59.320 --> 0:19:03.160 the Pats, but he hasn't been as explosive this year. 0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:05.199 Remember he's the wide out one. It's a very different 0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:08.680 responsibility for him. He got lucky, Um not lucky. He's 0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:11.439 good at it, but you got lucky as a fantasy 0:19:11.480 --> 0:19:13.280 owner a couple of weeks ago when you had the 0:19:13.400 --> 0:19:16.240 punt return for a touchdown. So he needs those kind 0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:18.120 of explosive players. I don't know if that's gonna happen 0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:21.120 tonight on Thursday Night football. So my guys that I'm 0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:24.720 high on on Thursday Night tonight. I like Travis Kelsey 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:27.480 big time. I like Mac Michael Crabtree. Of course you 0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:30.240 gotta like Kareem Hunt as well. They'll ride him in 0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:33.639 this game. I'm down on Tyreek Hill, I'm down on 0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:36.639 a Marii Cooper, and I'm also down on beast Mode. 0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:39.119 I don't think listen, it hasn't worked so far for 0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:41.399 Beast Mode. And I don't know that this is the 0:19:41.440 --> 0:19:44.160 game against what I think is a tough Kansas City defense, 0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:47.119 a short turnaround. I don't know if that, you know, 0:19:47.480 --> 0:19:51.240 fits into uh, you know what I'd like to see 0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:52.920 out of Beast Mode. But like I said, we gotta 0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:56.200 pull question up. What do you guys think, um Chiefs 0:19:56.240 --> 0:19:58.280 or minus three? The over under is forty six and 0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:01.600 a half right now, the leader forty one percent of 0:20:01.640 --> 0:20:05.120 you think the Chiefs minus three on the road are 0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:07.280 the bet that they're gonna go in there as road 0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:10.680 favorite and cover. And you like it with the under. 0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:13.199
