All that more coming up on today's show 24 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 1: The Fattest. First, let's get some one of the biggest 25 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: records will ever see fall in the NFL. Major fantasy implications. 26 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: Fifty one touchdowns for Peyton ending this season, breaking Tom 27 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: Brady's career record from two thousand and seven. What is 28 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: seeing this record mean to you in fantasy? Well, it 29 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: means that we're going to continue to see quarterbacks putting 30 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: up big numbers. Remember forever no one could break this 31 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: record when it was Dan Marinos what was at forty eight? 32 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: And now Brady did in two thousand and seven, and 33 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: now Eaton doesn't year at two thousand and thirteen. The 34 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: rules in the NFL have really helped quarterbacks put up 35 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: big time numbers. Geno Smith could break this next season, 36 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: Uh No, not so much. Coming up, FABS and I 37 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: will go through all the big news and injuries from Sunday, 38 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: But first let's examine the final Monday night football game 39 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: of the season. With rank and ok bar guys, thank 40 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: you Jason, and congratulations to everyone who has already won 41 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: their fantasy championships.

You are l president, so let me give 43 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: you a presidential handshake call. Very nice. Congratulations, Thank you, 44 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: well done, Thank thank you. But if you still need 45 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: some points from tonight, well, okbar and I are here 46 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: to give you a sense of what you expect tonight 47 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: from the final Monday night football game. The Candlestick Park 48 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: a place that you played football previously. Yes, you know, 49 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: a historical place to play for sure, but I can 50 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: tell you I won't miss the slick field and that 51 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: cold miss coming off the bay there, but uh, a 52 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: very good place to play. What do you think Matt 53 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: Ryan is gonna think about Candlestick Park tonight going up 54 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: against those forting He's not gonna have very good memories 55 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: of this place before they take it down. But I 56 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: can't say. If you are looking for a miracle on 57 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: Monday Night football, please look elsewhere, because Matt Ryan's not 58 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: gonna be able to get it done against this defense. 59 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 1: This defense will bring a lot of pressure in front 60 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: of Matt Ryan's play face. You gotta understand to this 61 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: offensive line have not been able to protect Matt Ryan, 62 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: so he's gonna have a very hard time getting the 63 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: ball down the Steven Jackson was somebody I thought could 64 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 1: be a fantasy m v P this season, but he's 65 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: got a really tough matchup to night. Where do you 66 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 1: see from him? I think that Stephen Jackson could be 67 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: a very solid flex play because he will be able 68 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 1: to in the end zoe, excuse me, in the red zone. 69 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: Be able to get into the end zoe. He does 70 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: have that big body, but don't expect the big night. 71 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: Don't hang your championship on Steven Jackson. If you just 72 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: got that empty flex spot. Plug in Steven Jackson and 73 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: somebody who has started to come on as a Blade 74 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: who has been a little bit of a disappointment for 75 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: the majority of the season. Roddy White has been playing 76 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: pretty well, but again this seems like another tough matchup 77 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: for him. Yes it is. I mean the quarterbacks and 78 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: the defensive backs in this group is very strong for 79 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: the forty niners. We saw how Roddy White did a 80 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: course against the Seattle Seahawks. Another strong secondary group didn't 81 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: fare too well. I think because he doesn't have the 82 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: help around him. It's going to be very hard for 83 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: Roddy White to get off like you're expecting to. I'm 84 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: expecting him to have double digit points, but that double 85 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: digit point is gonna be on the low end part 86 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: of that, and I don't know that it can necessarily 87 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: help you win your championship. Speaking of that, here are 88 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: projections and ak plars. Double digit points. You meant nine 89 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: point four nine the double digits, You didn't You weren't 90 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: that specific. I'm okay with that. We don't see big 91 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: nights from Matt Ryan, Stephen jack You're a little bit 92 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: more confident in Stephen Jackson than I, and I left 93 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: him on the bench in our experts league didn't trust 94 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: the matchup. But on the other side of the ball, 95 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: there's some guys who can do some Colin Kaepernick going 96 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: into the final game, it seems like there'll be a 97 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: lot of emotions for San Francisco. They got something to 98 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: play for the playoffs seating. What do we see from 99 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick, Well, this is the game now that you 100 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: can I believe that you can put your hat on 101 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick to expose this young secondary group that has 102 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: been struggling. When you look at this defense, they have 103 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: not been able to stop the pass. Everybody and anybody 104 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: can get off on there. And now all of a sudden, 105 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: you have a Colin Kaepernick that has not only at 106 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: Kwan Bolden, but Michael Crabtree and Vernon Day This. Oh yeah, 107 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna go off and have a big game against 108 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons. Kaepernick sure seems to be turning it 109 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: on at the right part of the season. What about 110 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: at one Bowlden today and Kwam Bolding. You know, I 111 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: like ant Kwam Bolder. He's been there, especially when Michael 112 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 1: Crabtree wasn't available. But this is a perfect opportunity because 113 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: where the San Francisco forty Niners are situated. To get 114 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: into the playoffs and make a strong run, you have 115 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: to get Michael Crabtree warmed up, getting him ready to go. 116 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: So I believe that Michael Crabtree will get a lot 117 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: of looks and Quam Bolden maybe the recipient of a 118 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: couple of big plays, but that's about it when it 119 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: comes to him. Yeah, it seems like Michael Crabtree is 120 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: a guy who comes out and plays his best when 121 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: the bright lights of Monday Night football are upon him. 122 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: Five career touchdown receptions in six Monday Night games. When 123 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: you say it a touchdown from him tonight, yeah, absolutely, 124 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm calling for double touchdowns present. I'm might be a 125 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: little too generous there, but I tend say he's gonna 126 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: have a big performance and you're gonna see him being 127 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: the most target. For sure, he'll get double digit targets 128 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: from Colin Kaepernick, allowing him to go out there and 129 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: do his thing. Okay, because you know, we're going to 130 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: see your projections for these guys and you have fifteen points. 131 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: You're learning his money where his mouth is. Of course, 132 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick, I actually like him a little bit more. 133 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: This is unlike me. I'm usually not this optimistic unless 134 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: you reach out to me on Twitter. This is and 135 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 1: then I'm going to be optimistic about Yeah. And you 136 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: know what, if you're gonna tweet us or anything, however 137 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: many points you need tonight, that's how many points I 138 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: think they're gonna score. They're like that. That's good. That's 139 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: that's very good. Now, remember you can check us out 140 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: tonight at one am Eastern here on or ten pm 141 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: here on the West Coast.

He was replaced by James Starks. 147 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: Something to keep an eye on if your championship will 148 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 1: be decided next week. But Fabs, the season he had 149 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 1: was so great. A little thing up here at the 150 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: end of the season. What is this due to his 151 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: value for next year? He's the first round pick. There's 152 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: no question about it. Eddie Lacy is one of the 153 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: big time young stud running backs coming in the National 154 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,799 Speaker 1: Football League, right there with a Levy on Bell, Zach Stacy. 155 00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: We've got a lot of good running backs that choose 156 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: from next year. Lacy will be number one if you 157 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: have him and you're playing in Week seventeen, though, pick 158 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: up James Starks's insurance and drafting next year. C J. 159 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: Spiller out of the first round Eddie Lacy game first 160 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: round Panther's white out. Steve Smith told The Charlotte Observer 161 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: he felt a pop in his knee on this play 162 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: against the Saints Sunday. He left the game before returning 163 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: for one play, then leaving for good a sprain PCL 164 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: doubtful for Sunday. So fact, if you have Steve Smith, 165 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: you're in a seventeen week league, give me a guy 166 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: or two you could pick up in this point. If 167 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: you're looking at the Panthers, you're looking at brand LaFell, 168 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: You're looking at a guy like Ted Gain. But court 169 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: Darryl Patterson is still out there in a lot of leagues, 170 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: and I've been telling people to pick him up for weeks. 171 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: We all have, so he's something to look at. Two 172 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: NFL media insider Ian Rapaporter forwards. Broncos linebacker Von Miller 173 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: tore his a c L in Sunday's game against the Texans. Fabs, 174 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: if you need the Broncos defense in week seventeen, how 175 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: big a deal is this? And knows this is a 176 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: guy who is a point producer for fantasy owners because 177 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: of his ability to sack the quarterback and put pressure 178 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: on the quarterback, which sometimes will turn into turnovers. The 179 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: good thing is that they're playing the Raiders next week. 180 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: The bad thing is the Bronco is gonna play everybody. Yeah, 181 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: you gotta watch that. We have a big headline for 182 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: that coming up on a couple of seconds. Some other 183 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: injuries though, to keep an eye on Shane Vereene Andre 184 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: Brown concussion has gotta go through league protocol if he's 185 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: gonna play in week seventeen. Of course, you know that 186 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: e j Manuel already banged up. Ryan Tannehill was injured 187 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: his knee against the Bills, but he did come back 188 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: into the game for one of Miami Dolphins. And this 189 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: is why you don't have your championships. In week seventeen 190 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: in the National Football League, Kansas City Chiefs head coach 191 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: Andy Reid told reporters today he would consider resting starters 192 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 1: in Week seventeen against the Chargers. If you play in 193 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: the seventeen week league FABS, you have Jamaral Charles, you're 194 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: really nervous right now. Pick up Niel Davis right now, 195 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: go out and grab him. This kid is very, very good. 196 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: He's not Jamal Charles, but he is a talented young 197 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: running back. He does have some issues with fumbling, but 198 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: he will be the featured back if Jamal Charles is 199 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,719 Speaker 1: arrested next week. Just like you said, you don't play 200 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: these championship games in Week seventeen, especially running backs. We 201 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: have a lot of wear and tear on them.

Goodness that was with 234 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: the Night of the Bronco. Let's get to Sunday's top 235 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: performers one through ten. Peyton Manning at the top. Of course, 236 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: when the guy breaks a record for most touchdown passes 237 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: in the season, you would expect him to be up 238 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: there at thirty one. Andy Dalton right behind him at 239 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: just over thirty one Fantasy points. We talked about him 240 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: on Fantasy Live on Sunday. We said, start Andy Dalton, 241 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: he will bring you a championship. Eric Decker on this 242 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: list over twenty five Fantasy points and rank. He's the 243 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: guy that brought you the title. Absolutely, and he was 244 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: somebody that I was able to draft a little bit later. 245 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: This is a kind of a lesson where you know, 246 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: paying attention in the middle rounds, finding guys like Eric Decker. 247 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: If you look at some people who end up winning championships, 248 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 1: it's because you find guys like Eric Decker. And of 249 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: course having Peyton anning for him. The football is pretty 250 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: good too. And I like him again for next year 251 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: as well. Can I have them next year? Yeah, you're 252 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: gonna have Remember after Week one when everybody wanted to 253 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: trade Eric Decker always seven touchdowns, he didn't get one. 254 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: You couldn't get anything for him. And now how about 255 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: Donald Brown ackbard twenty three points in Week sixteen? How 256 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: does he enter next season for you? Well, you know, 257 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: this is a guy that no one really paid attention 258 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: to in this year's draft, and of course we were 259 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: talking about guys like Trent Richestering, but what nobody accounted 260 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: for was the fact that Hamilton's offense, his his good, 261 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: strong power run offense, was going to help him. But 262 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 1: not only that, the way they utilize them in the 263 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: passing game as well. Donald Brown came out in this 264 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: game against the Kansas City Chiefs and just absolutely embarrassed 265 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: this defense that was supposed to be stout. Donald Brown 266 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: is a guy that you can look forward to in 267 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 1: the mid round for next season. It's not often we 268 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 1: see Jets highlights on the show. So there's a big 269 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: reason why Geno Smith over twenty seven fantasy points. I 270 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: said on Sunday Bench, Drew Brees and start Geno Smith, 271 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: except I didn't say that at all. What this does 272 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,839 Speaker 1: for Geno Smith FABS is having weeks like this. He's 273 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: in the conversation next season when I picked my backup 274 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: quarterback maybe running for a touchdown fifty yards rushing against 275 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: the Browns. He may have that kind of potential, but really, 276 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: at best he's a backup maybe if you're gonna draft, 277 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: unless he's playing all of his games at home next 278 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: year because on the road he's dreadful. Gino to me 279 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: is no more than a late round flyer. And Martin 280 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: looking for the Cowboys to see if the Jets playing 281 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: the Cowboys next year, because that could be a big reform. 282 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,199 Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, no doubt about that. And you know who's 283 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 1: big wearing the big blue helmet and they star on 284 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: the side. That's the Marco Murray, who has had a 285 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: fantastic season both on the field and from a fantasy perspective, 286 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: had another big game yesterday against the Redskins. We told 287 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: you an NFL Fantasy Live to start him. DeMarco is 288 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: held up through injuries this year. You only missed a 289 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 1: game or two, and he has been the centerpiece of 290 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 1: this office. He's been the best Dallas Cowboy in fantasy. 291 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: And that includes Des Bryant. Sunday's top performers now eleven 292 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: through twenty the second ten Jamal Charles. Another big week 293 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: brought Adam Right the championship. Pierre Garson, We're gonna talk 294 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: about him coming later on in the coming Yeah, something 295 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: Brown there. When it was fifty five enough in the 296 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: Eagles decided now I don't get rights brown. The football 297 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: a little bit here, but a guy on mislist Fred 298 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: Jackson Ockbard. You've talked about him during the season. He 299 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: was a guy that carried you very far and into 300 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: the playoffs. What do you think about Fred Jackson? Seven 301 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: teen points this week, going on next week and be on. 302 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: You know what, I think he's a guy that you're 303 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: going to continue to play. Fred Jackson really his really 304 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 1: captured this run game. I mean he is the running 305 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: game for the Buffalo Bills. I mean, you can say 306 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: what you want in the split backfield, but it is 307 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: Fred Jackson game. And even moving to next year, he's 308 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: a guy that you have to highly consider. He has 309 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: been dominant even in our fifth place. We're going yesterday, 310 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,319 Speaker 1: you and I probably didn't pay attention, but you and 311 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 1: I were. I scored a hundred thirty three points. I 312 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: would have beat rank and when the tampon, I wasn't 313 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: paying attention at all. But I mean he helped me 314 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: get ten points. I've exc helped me get a lot 315 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: of Fantasy points against you, but you still beat me. 316 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: That's what I was bringing up right, Just say thanks 317 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: for getting us.

One of many Festivals 338 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: traditions the airing of grievances, a chance to vent at 339 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: those who have disappointed us in the past year. So 340 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: with a Festivals poll or, I feel like I'm in 341 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: the subway in New York City. How about a grievance 342 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: for not having a stand for Can I start there? 343 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: Sure we'll start with that, and then we'll move on 344 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: to the fantasy airing of grievances with the players who 345 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: let us down in Championship Week and rank. People wanted 346 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: a lot of points from these guys, didn't get him 347 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: from Jason Witten, Reggie Bush, Reggie Bush and Calvin John. 348 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: It's in the entire city of Detroit was a big 349 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: listened to us. We told them to sit there, studs 350 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: play the unknowns, play Geno Smith. That was what you 351 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: would do, Tom Brad, I think that's exactly like, that's 352 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: exactly verbatim what I was saying, gotta listen to. The 353 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: champion was won three out of the last four years 354 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: in the Experts League, Adam Rank, Adrian Peterson a huge 355 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: disappointment side. And there is one league that I play 356 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: in with my chums from the Orange County Register. And 357 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: I lose every year, and it's a keeper league, and 358 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: I have Adrian Peterson. It's a keeper league. I have 359 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson, Freddie Morris and Jamal Charles and Tom Brady, 360 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 1: and I lose. I find a way to lose this 361 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: league every year. And Adrian Peterson just came out, what's 362 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: so funny? It's Tom Brady. It's all sorry. It's a 363 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: cavalcade stars that I lose with. Yes, and now I 364 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: want to quit, but I can't until I win. I 365 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: fear that I'm gonna see this team to my children someday, 366 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: like good luck with Adrian Peterson. All right, fabbs. Alex Smith, 367 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: he was coming off a huge week a week ago, 368 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: then he threw passes like this on Sunday. You know 369 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 1: what I like to say about Alex Smith. Alex Smith 370 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: giveth and Alex Smith taketh away. He probably got you 371 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: into the championship because, let's face it, he put up 372 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: some pretty good numbers this year, but in Week sixteen 373 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: when you needed at the boast and turned back into 374 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 1: the bad Alex Smith. And this is why the Chiefs 375 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: aren't going too far in the a f C postseason 376 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: America thanks for starting him. If only I had a 377 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 1: ten foot poll that I could not touch him? Oh 378 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: what did I do? You have one? Right there? How 379 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: about Cam Newton? Right? We thought he was in for 380 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 1: a big week on Sunday. Highly disappointed. Yeah, we thought 381 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 1: he was going to come out and score a lot 382 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: of points. And it's one of those things that even 383 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: when he's not great as a passer, he has the 384 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 1: ability to make plays with his legs and he wasn't 385 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: doing that unless they were bad plays like you just 386 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: saw right there. Huge disappointment. I know Kurt Warner was 387 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: talking about it before the playoffs started yesterday that he 388 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: was going with Cam Newton against my objection. But he 389 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 1: started Cam Newton and it didn't work out too wellful, 390 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 1: It didn't work out if he started Calvin Johnson. Effects. 391 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: This isn't the first time this late in the seven 392 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 1: count Calvin Johnson has this to you and but he 393 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: also got you there. But remember on Sunday show, what 394 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,479 Speaker 1: did we say bench Calvin Johnson? He can't start him, 395 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: he's not that good in the playoffs, except for we 396 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: didn't say that at all. Hey, Calvin got you there, 397 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: and this was a disappointing game, not only for Reggie Bush, 398 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: but Matt Stafford. A lot of the Detroit Lions were 399 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: major disappointments in championship. We you know what, guys, if 400 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: you got there, that's half the fun of playing Fantasy. 401 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: Because didn't win, it's disappointing. It's disappointing, but you know what, 402 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: You stick with your studs and you see what happens. 403 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: You can blame Calvin Johnson like nothing wrong, angry tweets 404 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: to anybody, Leave those for me. You can send those 405 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: to me all you want. All right, very good now, 406 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: and I'm sure we'll get some after the disappointments guys 407 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: who we said, Hey, there could be some big seasons 408 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 1: for guys like Trent Richardson, C. J. Spiller, which I 409 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 1: am still very angry about. Kim Nicks's disappointment. R G three, 410 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: Lamar Miller. Look at their Fantasy points per game and 411 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: their average round selected and the average picks selected. These 412 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: guys really let you down, but maybe no more so 413 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: rank than Trent Richardson. Trent Richardson, yep, he knew my 414 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: league of record with my chums out there in Corona, California. 415 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 1: Props to Chuck Teed for winning that league, by the way, 416 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: and then doing the CM punk and leaving with the belt. 417 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 1: But Trent Richardson one of the most disappointing guys, and 418 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,479 Speaker 1: I don't know what's gonna happen to him next year 419 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: because Donald Brown just went out and looked like a 420 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: much better running back. This guy is gonna be locked 421 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: into a committee going forward. So now you're gonna see 422 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 1: him fall to the third and fourth round and perhaps 423 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: I'll be suckered into trying to draft him as a 424 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: flex option next season. But when you watch the Colts play, 425 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: he just doesn't look very good. He doesn't look like 426 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: he's good at football, and they talk about picking up 427 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: the playbook. Well, the Browns pick up guys off the street, 428 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: put him out there, and they did much better than 429 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: Trent Richardson ever did. Let's move on to Lamar Miller, 430 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: who plenty of people had his breakout candidates fabs, and yes, 431 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: he was disappointed, But the other thing is I didn't 432 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 1: really get the football all that much. I apologize people 433 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: who drafted Lamar Miller because I really liked him in 434 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 1: the preseason, and part of it is the fact that 435 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: they never gave him the football. Part of the fact 436 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: is the offensive line stunt. And another part was I 437 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: was just dead rock about Lamar Miller. Hey, he's got 438 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: a lot of talent, but unfortunately this season it didn't 439 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 1: come together for Lamar. And who knows what's going to 440 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: happen next year with this kid. But unlike Trent Richardson, 441 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,959 Speaker 1: who I actually think could be pretty good next year, 442 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 1: because Donald Brown's in a contract year, Lamar Miller's value 443 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: big question mark ranked number of polls in my hand one. 444 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 1: Number of touchdowns for Hikim Knicks zero, huge, Just this 445 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: is a fascinating case study here of the guy in 446 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: a contract gear who actually performed worse when he was 447 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 1: going Jackson. That's what it is. He did something very 448 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: similar to what the Sean Jackson did a number of 449 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: years ago. And now you look at Hikim Knicks, where 450 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: is he going to end up next year? Because he 451 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: likely won't return to the New York Giants. I expect 452 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:52,959 Speaker 1: him to go to the Oakland Raiders, which is good 453 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 1: because then I won't be tempted to draft him ever, 454 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: and we can leave him on the bench and never 455 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: hear from him again, and then we'll start screaming. That 456 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: helps no, when he actually does score, but he would 457 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: have to score first. All right, fab, let's get to 458 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 1: Stephen Ridley. Please hold on to the football while you 459 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 1: talk about I've got to football. By the way, he'll 460 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: be catching passes from Michael Vick in Oakland. Stephen really 461 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: was the guy. Last year. He was a fantasy superstar, 462 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: put up double digit points every week, it seems. And 463 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: this season he couldn't hold onto the football, lost his 464 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: job to La Garrett one of all people. Brandon Bolden 465 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 1: was in there then Shane Vereen. You see that the 466 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: ball kept popping out of his hands weekend and week out. 467 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: This is this is let me see, let me see. 468 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: Can't do it get it right, just don't get it 469 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: better than he does. This is how you do it, man. 470 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: You just hold on high and tight like the end zone, 471 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: and you spike it like that and you score fantasy points. 472 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: I agree or anything, No, not at all.

And boy, 499 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: if you were down a quarterback for those weeks and 500 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: you picked up Josh McCown, you were awesome. He was fantastic, 501 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: very very underrated quarterback when he played for the Bears. 502 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: This season, Comeback Player of the Year, we're gonna reveal 503 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers. No, Sean Marino was Sean McCoy. So pretty worthy, guys, 504 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: right there, Philip Rivers, we had questions about him every week. 505 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: He wasn't even drafted in a lot of leagues because 506 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: he had played so poorly the last couple of seasons. 507 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: All right, now, speaking of comeback players, seems like we'll 508 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: have an interesting race for Fantasy comeback Player of the 509 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: Year next season with all the major stars headed for 510 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: injured reserve. This year, two of those stars, Rob Gronkowski 511 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: and Reggie Wayne lost to a c L injury, So 512 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: we asked our resident medical expert, Dr. Neil Goodadra to 513 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: explain the road back for Wayne Gronk. Thanks guys, welcome 514 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: to my house. As you know, the most important ligament 515 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: in the body for athletic activities and especially for fantasy 516 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: viewers is the A c L. So if you take 517 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 1: a look at Reggie Wayne and if you look at 518 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski, unfortunately, both these guys just had these injuries 519 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: and that was a big hit for fantasy viewers. So 520 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: if you look at how it can happen, it's interesting, 521 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: and that doesn't have to happen with a trauma or 522 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 1: an actual hit. Reggie Wayne, as you saw, he actually 523 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: planted on the ground, twisted and had his tear. Then 524 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski actually took a hit and had his tear 525 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: at that time as well. Let's actually take a look 526 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: at the a c L and how we can actually 527 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: fix the A c L in plate and people like 528 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: Rob Gnkowski or Reggie Wayne. This is the A c 529 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 1: L tendon. It goes from the tibia bone to the 530 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: femur bone, and you can see that it goes from 531 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: this side to this side. So what we typically do, 532 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 1: which will sound gruesome, but it's pretty cool, and major 533 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: athletes and pretty much all NFL players, when they get 534 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: the a c L done, you will actually take a 535 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: piece of bone from the kneecap. This is the patellar tendon. 536 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: And then you take a piece of bone from this 537 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 1: bone down here, and we use a saw to do it. 538 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 1: So you just saw it off just like that, okay, 539 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 1: And when you do that, you pull it out and 540 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: you get it read eight to drill from this bone 541 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: into this bone. Another kind of cool thing is that 542 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: when we actually put the bone in and we put 543 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: the graft into the bone, we have to fix it. 544 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: That when we fix it is we actually put screws in. 545 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 1: You can put metal screws like this one, or you 546 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: can put absorbable ones. But either way, look at that. 547 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: That's a big screw that goes in the knee and 548 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 1: there's two of them that usually go in, one in 549 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: this bottom bone and one into this bone. So there's 550 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: a lot that goes into doing these A C L surgeries. 551 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 1: But the end result is usually six eight months of rehab. 552 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 1: Patients are back out in the field, athletes are back 553 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: on the field and they do great. So then again 554 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: it can easily be elastic again, bend or twist without 555 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: any problems at all. All Right, thank you very much. Dr. 556 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 1: I feel like I could do a surgery. Now, I 557 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: can't believe people go to medical school and I could 558 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: just see how to do it like two minutes. Alright, 559 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: So which guy are you worried about more for next year? 560 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 1: Reggie Wayne, Rob Grunt. I'm worried about both of them. 561 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 1: Reggie Wayne is a little long in the tooth coming 562 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: back from an a c L. Rob Gronkowski not only 563 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: had the a c L, but he had back surgeries, 564 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: he had the forearm surgeries. Gronk is going to be 565 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: a major risk, as will Reggie Wayne next season. So 566 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: you're laying off from a little bit more than you 567 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: normally would. I would. I would still draft each one 568 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: of these guys, but not as highly as I would 569 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: have otherwise. All Right, there you go. For more news 570 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: right now, let's go to rank and akbar guys. Thank you, Jason. 571 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: Let's get you caught up on week sixteens, big news 572 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: and notes for everyone still playing for a championship in 573 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: week seventeen. But for but first, let's go to Sunday's 574 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 1: top performer. As you see Peyton Manning right there at 575 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:42,479 Speaker 1: the top, followed by Red Dalton, Lishawn McCoy, Geno Smith, 576 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: Eric Decker, de Marco Murray, Donald Brown, A J. Green 577 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: just as we queued it up. Of course, you look 578 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: at the other names, Jamal Charles, Pierre Garson, Ben Roethlisberger. 579 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: That was somebody we told you to pick up on 580 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 1: Sunday show of NFL Fantasy Live. But a bar somebody 581 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,160 Speaker 1: you're really excited heading into this week was Pierre gar Son. 582 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: What did you see out of him on Sunday? Well, 583 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: I saw that the Dallas Cowboys defense just could not 584 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: stop Pierre Garson, and which was a little surprising to me, 585 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: being that he was the only and the primary target 586 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: for you know, Kirk Cousins. And when you look at 587 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 1: the way your song just diced up this defense, I mean, 588 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: he found the open holes in his own defense and 589 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 1: he just went at it. But the Kirk Cousins kudos 590 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: to him, going to him eighteen times and he brought 591 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: back e level receptions for four yards. This guy is 592 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: a big time player and he deserves my big time, 593 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: prime time show time, all time, good time. We were 594 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: watching that game with Michael Irban and he was a 595 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: little upset and how many times Barret Garshan was being targeted. 596 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: And another guy who played very well on Sunday Joike Bell. 597 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: What happened here? Well, you know, I saw that Joey 598 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: Bell just is able to come out there and he 599 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 1: takes advantage of the opportunities that are given to him. 600 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 1: You know, Joy Bill is a solid running This makes 601 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,640 Speaker 1: me start thinking for next year, where does Joey Bell 602 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: go in the draft? And there are a lot of 603 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: running backs out there that have made the case, and 604 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 1: especially this game here in Championship Week, this is gonna 605 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: be very favorable on a lot of owner's mind what 606 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: he did in Championship Week. So he's the guy that 607 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to keep a watchboard. And you figure 608 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: there will be a new regime there in Detroit too, 609 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,959 Speaker 1: so it could be an entirely new offense. Here are 610 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: Sunday's notable injuries. Tony Romo City went into that game 611 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: with a back aleman. Of course it flared up, but 612 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: not until he was able to lead the Dallas Cowboys 613 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,880 Speaker 1: to a huge victory. So that was a big game 614 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: for him. What do you think going into next week? 615 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: You know, I think Tony Romans gonna keep hot, So 616 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,239 Speaker 1: we just gotta wait and see what Tony Romo does. 617 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: But I'm on I'm for Tony Romo. All right, Tony Roman, 618 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: thank you very much. Akbar. Coming up, we're running through 619 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: the backs who played the biggest roles in their team's 620 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: offenses with our season and review edition of Targets and Touches. 621 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: Stick around. NFL Fantasy Live is back right after this. 622 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: Don't shot care for you go get it. We did 623 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: touchdown the secondary hand like he bounce. I was got 624 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: front of John great Johnson get a touchdown, Jeff Jaki, 625 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live. All season long, I 626 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: write a column on nfl dot Com called Targets and Touches. 627 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: Usually we spotlight the events of the week for the 628 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: wide receivers and running backs, but today a little different. 629 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: We're gonna take a look back at the top players 630 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 1: overall in both categories through sixteen weeks to show you 631 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 1: how this will affect your off season and teen draft. 632 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: First up, the running backs with the most number of 633 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: touches for this season, again through sixteen weeks. No surprise 634 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: names like the Shawn McCoy, Matt four to Jamoral, Charles Marshall, Lynch. 635 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: The top of those list Adrian Peterson. But then fabs 636 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: you get down to number six. Do you see Eddie Lacy. 637 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: We didn't really take over as the number one running 638 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: back until the fifth week, and still the six overall 639 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: in touches. I never talked about him. I never said 640 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: I loved him. I never tried to trade for him. No, 641 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: but you wouldn't pull the trigger the really experts league 642 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: like I was supposed to. Yes, when I don't want 643 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: to make a trade, you guys should make a trade 644 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: with me. Darn it, like a spoiled kid him. Eddie 645 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: Legacy is going to be a first round pick next year. 646 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. I know people out there 647 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: are worried that he's going to be the next Doug Martin. 648 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: I just don't see that three down back who can 649 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: catch the ball in the backfield and he's a goal 650 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: line workhorse. I'd say he's a top eight pick on 651 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: bar so so eight, so the eighth overall he'll be 652 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: off the board, no doubt about that. All right, let's 653 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: move on to Ryan Matthews here on Park despite not 654 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: playing on third down, still ninth overall and touches this 655 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: season for Ryan Matthews. What does this mean for him 656 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: next year? Well, you know you're going to put him 657 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: in that conversation as a top running back. Now, he's 658 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: not going to be a first round running back. Don't 659 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 1: even think about it. I know, you know last season 660 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: everybody try to force Ryan Matthews to be that guy. 661 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: He's not that guy. But what we've seen as an 662 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: improvement outside of North Turner's offense, he's really matured into 663 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: this offense, been able to carry the ball. You talked 664 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: about two night carries on the season. Just so far, 665 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: Maryane Matthews is going to be a bargain, especially for 666 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: next season. I have nothing to say about Ryan matt 667 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: starting this fan has made a good growth now and 668 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: now he's a number two fantasy running back. Here's the 669 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: most targeted players this season. They have a surprise of 670 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: the topic. See Pierre Garson, Andre Johnson, Andre Johnson. Someone 671 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: fabs he gets the targets, but his production doesn't match 672 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: the attention. He guess he doesn't score a lot of touchdowns, 673 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,479 Speaker 1: but he gets a lot of catches and a lot 674 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: of yards. To me, he hasn't shown major signs of 675 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: slowing down. Now, I don't know who the quarterback is 676 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: gonna be in use in next season. I don't know 677 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: who coach is going to be in using next season, 678 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: so we've got to see what happens there. But to me, 679 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: he is still a number two wide receiver and a 680 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: borderline one in PPR leagues. Why Jason because of these 681 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: targets that he sees alshon Jeffrey despite not becoming one 682 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: of j Cutler's slash Josh McCown's favorite targets until almost 683 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: midway through the season, akbar, here he is getting in 684 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: the top ten or overall targets. What does this mean 685 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: for where you're gonna draft him next year? Well, for me, 686 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: it means that he's going to make that that case 687 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: to be a first round excuse me, a second round 688 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: wide receiver in a top tier wide receiver for next year. 689 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: When you look at that this very first game when 690 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: he went up a gift at his very first game, 691 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: but his first explosive game against the New Orleans Saints, 692 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: when he put up two underd flush yards, you knew 693 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: right there and then that this was going to be 694 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: the mark of greatness. He's gonna start to compete for 695 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: that target. Looks next to Brandon Marshall, I say, al 696 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: Shan Jeffrey is going to be a guy that you 697 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: have to keep your eye on and make sure you 698 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: get them right when you can. All right, real quick, 699 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: you guys, who are you drafting first next year? Brandon 700 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: Marshall or Alshan Jeffrey Marshall. But it's close. Yeah, I'm 701 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: going Brandon Marshall. But right after Brandon Marshall's Alshan Jeffrey. 702 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: Mr Ridley, You're okay for now. Now, hopefully some of 703 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: these guys you just talked about help you win a 704 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,479 Speaker 1: championship fumble. And if they didn't, well then you can 705 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: just blame one of these guys that Adam Right is 706 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: going to tell you about right now. In nineteen sixty nine, 707 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: a man landed on the moon and then not much 708 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: else happened until a year ago. When that helps, no 709 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: one was born, That's right. Each week we take a 710 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: look back at those unheard of players who robbed precious 711 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: fantasy points from the guys we actually started on Sunday. 712 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 1: It's a tear jerker for some curtain jerker's. And here 713 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: we go, and let's go to the video and we 714 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: will start in Medlife Stadium. Geno Smith, nobody starting him? 715 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: Why not throw it? Avid Nelson as he goes and 716 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: he looks for a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader to give the 717 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: ball to David Nelson, as in like Len David Nelson. 718 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: None of that, None of those people. We actually there. 719 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: Gino Smith ran in a touchdown as well, but we 720 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: can't show it to you. It's too painful. One and 721 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: now on the other side of the ball, the Cleveland Browns. Nope, 722 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: it's Edwin Baker.

With our fantasy season coming to 763 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,800 Speaker 1: a close, shortly, time to hand out some hardware. So 764 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 1: first up, the unsung Hero of the year. This is 765 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 1: the player who did not begin the year at the 766 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: top of the depth chart but still put up big 767 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 1: pois for you. Let's take a look at the nominees. 768 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: Josh McCown, Harry Douglas, Nick Foles. None of these players 769 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,399 Speaker 1: began the year as a starter, but we're thrust into 770 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 1: starting roles. What do you guys think it's gonna be 771 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 1: in the count? Douglast or falls. I've got a sneaky 772 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 1: suspicion that this pick right here it's gonna go to 773 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:44,799 Speaker 1: Mick Foles here. I mean, I just love the kid, 774 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: no brainer. I think Nick Foles. All right, let's say 775 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: I think it's a quarterback and the winter is Nick. Wow. 776 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 1: We really we really went to the well for this. 777 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: Look at that they're gonna fly in the graphic producer 778 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: Will just got a red marker and wrote that like 779 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: two goodness all right, So Nick Foles very deserving winner 780 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,839 Speaker 1: for this despite the fact we couldn't really no doubt 781 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: about that he's a quarterback that I was lucky enough 782 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: to pick up in a couple of leagues, or you 783 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 1: made the championship in both of those leagues. One is 784 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 1: still pending, we'll see how things go. But Folds is 785 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,520 Speaker 1: now a top five to eight quarterback in Fantasy US. 786 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 1: You know that's not surprising to me that he had 787 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 1: that kind of production. I mean, he was really the 788 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 1: perfect fit for Chip Kelly's offense. We just didn't know 789 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,879 Speaker 1: it because he was behind Michael Vick the entire time. 790 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: I remember one we thought it was gonna be Michael 791 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: Beck'll be sure it was Michael four. And then he 792 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: came out and and obviously he made it his position. 793 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 1: See top five guy for your next year. Quarterback. I'm 794 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: very worried about it. Anytime somebody comes back like that 795 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 1: out of the blue, I'm a little apprehensive. All right, 796 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 1: Let's move on to our next award, and that is 797 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 1: the Comeback Player of the Year. The nominees Philip Rivers, No, 798 00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 1: Sean Moreno, and Lashawn McCoy. All these guys were drafted low, 799 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: very if they were drafted at all. No, Shan Marino 800 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: was undrafted in a lot of leagues. Which guy you 801 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 1: think is gonna be taking home the hardware here or 802 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 1: the red pen based on where he was drafted, I 803 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: would say no. Sean Moreno. He carried a lot of 804 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: people through a lot of fantasy leagues and with somebody 805 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 1: you drafted, as you said very late, you know that 806 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: waterfall tier thing too. He could work for them. The 807 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:23,560 Speaker 1: crying people love emotion when you do that. Rights gotta 808 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,320 Speaker 1: be no sewn money, all right, and the winner is 809 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 1: Lashawn your winner again with the same red pen with 810 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 1: You're like, really, he says, I agree with Adam, it 811 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: should have been No. Sean Marino. McCoy was great, and 812 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: he was really not good last season. Don't get me wrong. 813 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 1: He was still a first round pick. No. Sean Marino 814 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: wasn't even drafted, and if he wasn't, was late, and 815 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: he put up similar numbers to McCoy. If we're talking 816 00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 1: about fantasy, McCoy's deserving, but no show enjoining. I think 817 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:02,760 Speaker 1: the reason why we give it to the lesha McCoy 818 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: and to the fans wanted as Leshawn is because think 819 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: about the heartbreak that a lot of fantasy owners who 820 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 1: had Leshaun McCoy prior to the season, they went through 821 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,800 Speaker 1: that experience. It's like, oh no, so it's the that 822 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: downpour of just feeling like he's never gonna make it 823 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: out and then he comes out and has this type 824 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 1: of performance. Yeah, he's deserving. All right.

Now we're looking back at since most 828 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: everybody's had their championships. Hopefully you have won, but just 829 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 1: in case you didn't, we're gonna give you some more 830 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: advice from this season looking forward to next year. And 831 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: the first one fantasy advice from is we're gonna talk 832 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: about Nick Foles. He's gonna be the first quarterback that 833 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: I draft. Ineen, you know, I get ranked that you're 834 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: concerned about a guy who came out of nowhere, but 835 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 1: nothing's gonna change for him. Like Colin Kaepernick, they changed 836 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: the offense this year, so we struggled for a while 837 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: before becoming a good quarterback. This is gonna be the 838 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 1: offense he runs. They're gonna do the same things litt 839 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: next year that they did this year. He's gonna have 840 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: another year to get used to the system. So I'm 841 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: not He didn't in snow, he didn't rain in mud 842 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 1: in any kind of there. I really like Nick Foles, 843 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 1: and I'm okay if people want to lay off him, 844 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 1: I am very happy taking him later in the draft. 845 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:08,759 Speaker 1: Please be my guests, as you just gave a whole 846 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: list of reason of guys who have done this, Cam Newton, 847 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 1: Colin kaepern At, guys who have been so great one 848 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: year and then struggled the next when teams kind of 849 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:16,800 Speaker 1: get a full book on him. So we'll see that. 850 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: Good luck with that, though, thank you. I appreciate that. 851 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: I don't like it when the three time champion and 852 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: the expert league says, yeah, go ahead, do that. I 853 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,800 Speaker 1: like that happy holidays. All right, fab, What do you 854 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: learned from this season? Well, it's it's not so much 855 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: something that I learned more than it was proven. You 856 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,479 Speaker 1: wait on a quarterback. You don't draft a quarterback early. 857 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,799 Speaker 1: And people are gonna say, oh, Peyton Manning had fifty 858 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 1: one touchdowns, he's been great. Well, Andy Dalton's the fifth 859 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 1: highest scoring quarterback and fantasy he wasn't even drafted in 860 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: some leagues, and if he was, it came late running 861 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 1: backs and wide receivers early tight ends. Take your quarterback late. 862 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna target Robert Griffin the third because everyone's gonna 863 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: think he had a bad year in two thousand thirteen. 864 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 1: He can't do it. I think he can't. Wait on 865 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 1: a quarterback. That's how you win a championship. All right, Rank, 866 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: you learned something about a quarterback this year. I agree, 867 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 1: wait on a quarterback. The quarterback. I'm not gonna wait 868 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: on Matthew Stafford. This guy has dropped the ball when 869 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 1: it comes to fantasy football. A lot of people were 870 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 1: relying on him going into the fantasy playoffs. He let 871 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 1: you down. Here has a guy like Calvin Johnson to 872 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 1: throw two great guys like Reggie Bush, even joyke Bell 873 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:15,399 Speaker 1: was getting into the mix and you let you down. 874 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 1: So wait on a quarterback, just not Matthew Stafford right now, Akbar, 875 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 1: you gotta follow this here because Akbar's advice is a 876 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 1: little bit existential. Lock Bar, what's your thing you learned? Well, 877 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: it's real simple is that fantasy battles don't always go 878 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: to the strongest or fastest man. But the man who 879 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: wins is the man who thinks he can't. It's all 880 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: in the state of mind. You're saying, what are you 881 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: getting at here? Well, what I'm getting at is guys 882 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: that you probably will just kind of throw off to 883 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: the backbrun because you don't have any experience with him 884 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: and you don't know him. Allah, nick Foles, Matt Sata 885 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,400 Speaker 1: for one week, came in there and Ni nick Foles 886 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 1: and Acota Yes, he said, how no no no, Allah yes. 887 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 1: So and then and then you're you're you're You're going 888 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: then to case Keenom. Case Keendom was another guy, guy 889 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 1: that you probably never heard of. He came out of nowhere. 890 00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,399 Speaker 1: So what I'm saying is, when you're in the meat 891 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: of you're a fan see season, don't be afraid to 892 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: go with the guy who has the fantasy matchup mental edge. 893 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 1: All right, it's the mental and now we actually know 894 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 1: how akbar. We've actually a video of him, how he 895 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 1: comes up with, how he starts his line up. Can 896 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,320 Speaker 1: we roll some of that video? This is what you 897 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 1: see when a bar tries to come up with his 898 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:21,760 Speaker 1: line up right now, right now, he's thinking Keenum cousins, 899 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: Keena cousins, cousins.
