We'll focus on 7 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: some disappointing players to tell you if they're going to 8 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: continue to disappoint you or if they can turn it around. 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: Targets and Touches takes a look at the players with 10 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: the most targets, the pass catchers with the most targets. 11 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: We'll see what that means for your team. That helps 12 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: no one. Adam Rank is back with an All Star 13 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: edition and a little Fantasy versus Reality on Andrew Luck 14 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: and Colin Kaepernick, all that more today look get to 15 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: them Monday Night game with Adam Rank and akbar By 16 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 1: Sha be Anila in the second. But first we're taking 17 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 1: a look at the rest of the league with our 18 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 1: latest headlines and fabs. Arian Foss Rotors right now are 19 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: saying hallelujah. It looks like the time share is over 20 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: a huge day from Foster on Sunday. This is sort 21 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: of what I expected, though. He was gonna start the 22 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: season off slowly because he didn't play in the preseason 23 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: or training camp because he's injured. Very posters back to 24 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,759 Speaker 1: a percent now, and this is a guy that Texans 25 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: need if they're going to make a run at the postseason. 26 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: Arian Foster from this day on is a number one, 27 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: locked in, loaded fantasy running back. You never take them 28 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: out of your lineup unless there's a bottle. You have 29 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: to say the same thing now about Philip Rivers. He 30 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: is a number one fantasy quarterback. Four hundred yards passing 31 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: three touchdowns against the Cowboys Sunday. He's had three great 32 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 1: games and one average game in FAB You see how 33 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: accurate he is. That passed to Danny Woodhead is right 34 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: on the money. He's back to being the old Philip Rivers. 35 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: Mike McCoy has been the elixir which has really fixed 36 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers as a north turner. Over the last couple 37 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: of years seemed to have brought Rivers's value down in 38 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: fantasy leagues. McCoy's rising it back up. He needs to 39 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: be owned in all leagues and he's got three great 40 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: matchups coming up, including Week five against the Oakland Raids. 41 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: The question from Levy on Bell went, Boy, do I 42 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: start him on Sunday? To do I start him as 43 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: a too? As he afflects? What's Levy on Bell? After 44 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: his huge game on Sunday? Boy, his value has certainly risen. 45 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: He's an R beat you flex type right now during 46 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: the bio weeks. Maybe he's even an RV two Jason, 47 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: But I like this matchup. Last week. We said to 48 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: start him on NFL Fantasy Live on Sunday. And this 49 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: is a kid who's still available and over NFL dot 50 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: Com leagues. If you see him on the waiver wire, 51 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: get him now. But remember they do have a bye 52 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: this week, so you can't play him. Reggie Bush against 53 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears fabs. Everybody sees this as boy, Reggie Bush 54 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: is playing like a first round talent, and he is. 55 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,839 Speaker 1: I see a little bit differently. I try to move 56 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: Reggie Bush in the league now. His value is never 57 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: gonna be higher. He gets dinged up. He's already been 58 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: hurt three times this year. Now is the tie to 59 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: trade Reggie Bull? That is very good advice, Jason. In fact, 60 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: Reggie Bush is a guy who's been a bit brittle 61 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: in the past. You know, the last couple of years 62 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: in Miami he was still pretty good. But in New 63 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: Orleans on turf, he missed twenty games during his tenure there, 64 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: and I think if you can flip him for Lashawn 65 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: McCoy right now, or if you can flip him for 66 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: Arian Foster, you do it. Joeke Bell also was in 67 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 1: the mix of running back and his value is pretty high. 68 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,079 Speaker 1: But you saw last week FABS when he filled in 69 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: for Reggie Bush. He averaged just about three yards to carry. 70 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: He didn't have eleven touches on Sunday, but he had 71 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: a big fumble at the end of the fourth quarter 72 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: to allow the Bears to make this game close. What's 73 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: his value right now? He's a handcuff and he is 74 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: a risk reward flex option during the bye weeks. This 75 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: is a guy who, hey, when he's the man in 76 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: the backfield, he could produce. He definitely proved that against 77 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: the Washington Redskins a couple of weeks back. But with 78 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: Reggie Bush healthy, you're not gonna see as many touches. 79 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: If you're a joint Bell owner, thus you're going to 80 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: see some inconsistent stats. Other big news today Mark Sanchez 81 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: officially now done for the season. Really, New York James, Well, 82 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: it's well, he's officially done. He had the reserve designated 83 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: to return, but now he's gonna have season endering surgery 84 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: on his torn labor This means Geno Smith the job 85 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: is his for the remainder of the season. And facts, 86 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: when you have Geno Smith at home, he's pretty decent. 87 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: You have away from home, you're playing whatever defense is 88 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: playing against Gino Smith. Yeah, exactly. He's a guy who 89 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: he's definitely seen. Thrives there at the meadow lands. On 90 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: the road not so much so. Gino's Smith, not somebody 91 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: I'm starting in my fantasy leagues, but he is the 92 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: guy there. Now he's the guy. There's no question. With 93 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: Sanchez done for the season. Time now to get to 94 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: the injuries from Sunday. Jake Locker, it's also a niece 95 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: sprain in addition to his hip injury suffered on Sunday 96 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: against the Jets. The team not placing him on injured reserve, 97 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: hoping to get him back with an a four to 98 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: eight week time span. All our best wishes for a 99 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: speedy recovery for Jake Locker from this injury. FABS, What 100 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 1: does this mean for the Titans players their values while 101 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: he's out? Well, yeah, I think you downgrade the wide 102 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: receiver is just a bit. Not that much though. Ryan 103 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick clearly has experience in the National Football League and 104 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 1: he's not someone I'm picking up off the waiver wire. 105 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: But Fitzpatrick can still do the job right. Darren McFadden 106 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: hamstring injury, I know, shocker. Marcel has never hurt. He 107 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: also gets hurt. So are you picking up Napoleon Kaufman? Uh, 108 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: not so much. But Rashan Jennings is gonna be a 109 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: hot name on the waiver wire this week. I'm just 110 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: shocked mcfedden's hurt. He never gets hurt. But Jennings is 111 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 1: someone who He's not going to be the Darren mcfedden playmaker, 112 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: but he's basically a starting lineup filler if Nick Fadden 113 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: is forced in this time. And here's our own Ian 114 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: Rappaport saying sounds like Darren McFadden's hamstering injury isn't a 115 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 1: major one. We'll see it about this Sunday, but he 116 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: avoided serious injury. The Buffalo Bills. They have problems with 117 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: their own c J. Spiller's ankle injury. He says, if 118 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: he can get to eighty five or nine percent for 119 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: Thursday night's game on NFL Network, he'll play. Here's the thing, though, 120 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: Fred Jackson sprained mcl he says, it's not serious. I 121 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: want to play Thursday. So both guys say they want 122 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: to play Fabs. But can you trust him in a 123 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: short week? And then two shark choice is probably gonna 124 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: in the mix there too, And no, you can't trust 125 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: him because the Browns suddenly have a really good run defense. 126 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: They held Giovanni Bernard and the law Firm to next 127 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: to nothing last week. The brown suddenly good against the run. 128 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: This is a major risk. Alfred Morris a rib injury 129 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: in Sunday's game against the Raiders, though they do have 130 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 1: the by this week. Hopeful Alfred Morris can get some 131 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: rest this week, can come back next week. But here's 132 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: the people gotta remember, Fabs. You got a lot of 133 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: guys on bys now. You gotta make sure you're making 134 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: the right roster moves. You don't want to get stuck 135 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: right and if you have Moorish, you'd be smart to 136 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: handcuff him with Roy Hullo, who looked pretty good in 137 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 1: Morris's absence yesterday. All right, some of the other injuries 138 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: from Sunday's games, fans, I think we cursed the Jets 139 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: last week. You talked about what great fantasy value they have, 140 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: and now we had all kinds of guys banged up. 141 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: Stephen Hill got her in the second place. I hate 142 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: to break this to you, but the Jets don't need 143 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: us to curse that really, Okay? All right, Marcel Reese. 144 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: As we talked about earlier, Vince Wilfork also done for 145 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: the season within Achilles. See how that affects New England 146 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: Patriots defense. Now, let's send it over to Adam and 147 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: Akbar to break down the Saints and the Dolphins. Guys, 148 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: here's Greece, Betty's in, He'll touch down, Thank you, Jason. 149 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: A battle of undefeated teams tonight in New Orleans, Dolphins 150 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: and Saints. And Akbar, what are we looking at tonight 151 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: from both these teams? Well, I think you're gonna look 152 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: at both teams trying to keep their streak alive. Of course, 153 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: being undefeated three and old right now, I think that 154 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: really does help the fantasy value, especially if a guy 155 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: like Ryan Tannehill. Ryan Tannehill, you know when you get 156 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: to that point where you're winning your three and oh, 157 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, now you start playing with that confidence. 158 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: All right, we're looking at the projections. Though you're talking 159 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: about that confidence and playing well. I like Ryan Tannehill 160 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: a little bit more than you talk about well. You know, 161 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill right now is going It's been playing with 162 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: a on a consistent level. When you look at his 163 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: fantasy numbers. Nothing to this is gonna while you But 164 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: right now, I think because we're in this area now 165 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: where we're gonna start to look at quarterbacks for spots 166 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: starting during the bye weeks, this is a statement game 167 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: for Ryan Tannehill on Monday Night football. Can they keep 168 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: the streak alive? Can he continue to produce, especially against 169 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: an aggressive Saints defense. I've already wrapped up my win 170 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: and our experts on an NFL dot com, I've got 171 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: Lamar Miller going still, what should I expect from that? 172 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,679 Speaker 1: They're saying in case I and somebody out there needs 173 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: the points. You know, this is the fact that was 174 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: highly touted coming into the season. Everybody was talking about 175 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: how good Lamar Miller as well. We haven't necessarily seen 176 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: that out of Lamar Miller. I think he's a number two. 177 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: He was touted as a number two back, but he's 178 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: more like a number excuse me, a number three back 179 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: afflecks back for you, and going against this Saint's defense 180 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: that is really not that good as far as the 181 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: rushing defense is concerned, he could be a good play tonight. Yeah. 182 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: The Saints have been pretty good on the past. You 183 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: can get points on them on the ground. What about 184 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: Mike Wallace though, when you look at it, that much 185 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: improved secondary from me, You know, he bawled out against 186 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts, put up big numbers, but we haven't 187 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: seen anything from him since then. You know, when you 188 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: look at the game before then the game after that, 189 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 1: he's had under three points. So this is another game 190 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: ken Mike Wallace step up on the grand stage of 191 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: Monday Night football to put up some numbers. Because people 192 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: are getting concerned about Mike Wallace. Is he a guy 193 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a hit and miss a whole bunch? Yeah, 194 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: And there's a question marks all around for the Miami Dolphins. 195 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: But the nice thing about the other team going the Saints. 196 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: Oh boy, let's say you're down a little bit or anything. 197 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: You know what, you gotta feel pretty confident. You got 198 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: got a guy like Drew Brees, Jimmy Graham, Darren Sprawls. 199 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: Let's let's take a look at some of the productions. 200 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: I hope you're a little more generous with these guys 201 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: and we all take a look here free we are 202 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: both generous. Brees, Sprawls, your major players, Jimmy Graham, Colston. 203 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: I understand somebody might scoff at that projection for Jimmy 204 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: Graham and say, point for you. You know what, that's 205 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: very similar to what Tony Gonzalez did on Sunday night. 206 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: But let's focus in on Drew Brees real quick. What 207 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: do he said? Well, you know, Drew Brees is going 208 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: up against this Miami defense and this is not gonna 209 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: just be a, you know, an easy task for Drew Brees. 210 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: He's gotta come out there and obviously he's got to perform, 211 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,719 Speaker 1: but it makes it easier when he has weapons around him. 212 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: And Drew Brees showing, you know, last Weekday he's got 213 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: the ability to run if he absolutely needs to pull 214 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: that cart. Drew Brees is always a guy that you're 215 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: gonna play. He's a top five quarterback. Play. Drew Brees 216 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: much more athletic than people give him credit for, and 217 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: he loves playing on Monday Night. Can see the projections 218 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: right there. Darren Sprawls though, no no touchdowns and thirty 219 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: four offensive touching touches this season. Does that change tonight? 220 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: You know what? I think that does change because I 221 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: know Darren Sprawls, and I know that on Monday Night football, 222 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: he's gonna come out and show you something. I mean, 223 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: albeit special teams, but he's that hasn't really been in 224 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: that back position. They've been throwing him the ball. He's 225 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: got a lot more touches as far as receiving yards 226 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: than he does in the rushing game. So look for 227 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: him to really get out there in the open space 228 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: and ball against this Miami defense. Now, in my league 229 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: of record, I'm in a little bit of a hole. 230 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: I need a huge game from Jimmy Graham. Can I 231 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: get it? Well? You know you and Fabiana Boat. If 232 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham balls out tonight and somehow pulls out like 233 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: fifty points for some reason, because Drew Brees goes crazy 234 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: on a Monday night football game. He can beat me 235 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: in our expert league, But Jimmy Graham is just that. 236 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: When I was talking to Drew Brees, Drew Brees said, look, really, 237 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: when he's going out there, there's nobody even really match 238 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: up with him. He's huge, he's tall, He's got a 239 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: big height advantage on on defensive backs. I mean, Jimmy Graham, 240 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: if you have them, he's probably more likely gonna help 241 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: you win if you're down, so you're already counting your victory. 242 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: I like that about Marcus Colson, another guy. Does Jimmy 243 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: Graham takeaway too many targets from Well, there's this mysterious things. 244 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: I've only played in a couple of Monday night footballs 245 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: but games, But I can tell you this, Monday night 246 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: football somehow brings the best out of guys. And when 247 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: you look at Marcus Colson, seven touchdowns on Monday night football. 248 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: So this could be the game where everybody goes, Yes, 249 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 1: I finally got the production I've been looking for. Does 250 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: Marcus Colson has it had a big year so far, 251 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: but this could be it for Marcus Colston. Okay, I 252 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: like what you're putting out there. What I don't like, though, 253 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: is that people are running around talking about breaking bad, 254 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: spoiling things. I'm six episodes into the entire series, getting 255 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: ready to start tonight. I'm saying, pump the brakes on 256 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: the spoilers. But you have a spoiler for tonight's game though. Yeah, 257 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: the spoiler is going to be Rob Ryan's defensive. Rob 258 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: Ryan's defense, I've played in. I understand his defense. They 259 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: are aggressive, he's got I mean, they play the way 260 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: he looks. I'm they're just walking. They're gonna get up there, 261 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: They're gonna mug those guys. They're gonna sit up there 262 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: and they're gonna play press. They're gonna bring pressure, and 263 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: that's what is gonna do good for this defense. Remember now, 264 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been sacked the 265 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,439 Speaker 1: league high fourteen times. So you know, Rob Ryan knows 266 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 1: the glitchen in this defense, excuse me, in this offensive line, 267 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: He's gonna send a lot of pressure in a lot 268 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: of exotic ways. And it's always good to be forward 269 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: thinking and kind of look at the matchups the Saints 270 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: have against teams like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Stashed them 271 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: on your bench, possibly because they'll be some pretty good, 272 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: pretty good matchups for you all right now. Still, the 273 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: comments are weekly recap of the fantasy scores that help 274 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: no one. Will these little known point scores rise up 275 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: the fantasy relevance or is this the end of their 276 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes of fame? We'll tell you. Plus everything you 277 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: need to know about Sunday's top performers and biggest disappointments 278 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: is on the way. NFL Fantasy Live is back right 279 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: after this because he's got a little lane here and 280 00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: he exposes it. Four pet Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live. 281 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: Here are your top ten fantasy performers from week four. 282 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: Pretty much every week you're able to write in Peyton 283 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 1: Manning's name at the top with just over twenty nine. 284 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 1: Tony Gonzalez with a huge Sunday Night, there's Philip Rivers 285 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: becoming a number one fantasy quarterback. Tory Smith on this 286 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: list had a big breakout game. Nate Washington also a 287 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: huge one against the New York Jets. But guys, really, 288 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: when you look at Peyton Manning now the most touchdowns 289 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: through four weeks, ahead of everybody's pace, best in NFL 290 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: history with six team fabs. What do you see going 291 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: on for Peyton Manning? Well, fantasy points galore. This is 292 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: like Tom Brady in two thousand and seven, but even better. 293 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning is thirty seven years old and he's in 294 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: the midst of the best season of what's been an 295 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: illustrious career. He doesn't have an interception this year, guys. 296 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: He's been that good. Yeah, And the impressive part about 297 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: it is that when you talk about the new in 298 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: exception that the touchdown is is a ability to keep 299 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,719 Speaker 1: doing it every single weekend this season. He still has 300 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: twelve more weeks to be able to produce like this, 301 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: and I see that he's going to continue that trend 302 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: because of his mental ability to break down defenses. Nobody 303 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: reads a defense like an open book better than Peyton Manning. 304 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: He you can continue to expect these types of this 305 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: type of production. Why is everybody raving about the no inners? 306 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: Of course he has no interceptions. It's not the playoffs 307 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: that's when he shot out. The facts say that when 308 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: the when the winner, when the winner starts moving in 309 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: the weather gets a little colder, that's not when. That's 310 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: when Peyton doesn't play. You know, da if I was. 311 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: If I was, I would trade for Eli, have him 312 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 1: back up Peyton. Peyton carry it through the regular season. 313 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: You start Eli in the playoffs booms something. I say 314 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: this in in defense for Peyton Manning. As he gets older, 315 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: he gets wiser. I think he's away from that whole playoff, 316 00:14:52,840 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: wasn't he was? Alright, we'll get wiser and getting older 317 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: is certainly something Tony Gonzalez has done. Fats a huge 318 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: night Sunday Night. But first we're gonna get to Peyton 319 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: Manning versus Tom Brady. Here's the pace Hayton Manning's at 320 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: right now through Tom Brady's pace at two thousand seven 321 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: when he threw fifty pretty much leads him in every category, 322 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: he said, Brady a little bit higher with completion percentage, 323 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: five touchdowns for Peyton this season. Unbelievable. And you guys 324 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: remember oh seven, Brady was just gangbusters every single weekend. 325 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: If you had him on your fantasy team, you probably 326 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: went to the playoffs. Right now, we get to Tony 327 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: Gonzalez and the Sunday night game against the against Tom 328 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: Brady in New England Patriots. Fats for God, who thought 329 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: about retiring a few months ago, he's certainly having a 330 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: pretty good season. And there were fantasy owners on Twitter 331 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: who were considering retiring Gonzalez from their starting night, and 332 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: I said, you have to play Tony Gonzalez. It was 333 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: a good matchup. Remember Roddy Whites banged up, and this 334 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: was gonna be a game where there's gonna be points 335 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: put up on the scoreboard. And that's exactly what happened. 336 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: And Tony g if you started him, you probably won 337 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: this week. If you started Adrian Peterson, you probably won 338 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: a parties. He's got a seven toy year sixty yard 339 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: touchdown run every week. It seems like, yeah he is. 340 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he's just that good. When we talk about 341 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson, yes, you know he might get some games 342 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: where you see, you know what happened to Adrian Peterson. 343 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: He's not doing You're watching the first and second quarter 344 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: and then bull Yeah, third quarter, he bust a big 345 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: one on you. And that's his ability. He has that 346 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: big playability. You know what he can do. Obviously, coming 347 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: off from a two thousand plus yard season, Adrian Peterson, 348 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: to me, he's the reason why that everybody was going 349 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 1: crazy about having him number one. He deserved to be 350 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: number one. Look from the running backs of the quarterbacks. 351 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: The top five quarterbacks for Week four, Payton Manning at 352 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: the top, Philip represent rank Alex Smith number three on 353 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: this list. Yes, as we drew it up, Alexon number Well, 354 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: you know what, you like the matchup. But Alex Smith 355 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: is sometimes hard to figure because even when he has 356 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: a good matchup, he doesn't necessarily translate that into good 357 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: fantasy performances. Now, of course it's translating onto the field. 358 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 1: The Chiefs are four now and he looks very good. 359 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: And I know everybody wants to make fun of him 360 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: for not going down the field, but that looks like 361 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: he was going down the field. But he's he's still 362 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: tough to read. But he's a good matchup based guy 363 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: because the team is good. He trust his weapons and 364 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: that's the one thing that I really like. Maybe he's 365 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: got Jamal Charles helping him out, so he's a matchup guy. 366 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,959 Speaker 1: He's not a number one quarterback for me, but clearly 367 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 1: a matchup bas quarterback. And also, they can't pound the 368 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: ball when they get inside the red zone, so if 369 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: they give one carry to Charles, they'll move on to 370 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: throw the football. Andrew Luck FAPs. People have been waiting 371 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: for a breakout game. Was this it? He had a 372 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: good one nineteen fantasy points. And again people are freaking 373 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: out in the first half because he wasn't putting up 374 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 1: big points. But guys, the NFL, they played game for 375 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: four quarters in him. So the second half he played 376 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 1: extremely well. It couldn't have it could have been even 377 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: better having had a few bad luck, No pun intended exactly. 378 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 1: And your luck to me, guys is a QB one 379 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 1: and I drafted him in a bunch of leagues is 380 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: a QV one. And we'll have much more and Andrew 381 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: Luck coming up later on in the show to tell 382 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: you just exactly what kind of fantasy season he's having. 383 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: Top five Fantasy running backs for Week four, Adrian Peterson, 384 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: Aryan Foster. We expect those guys, Reggie Bush Dan would 385 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: head Levy on Bell Hawkbar. I know you see Levy 386 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: on Bell on this listen, you go hold my goodness right, Actually, 387 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: I was looking at number one and two and just 388 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: thinking to myself, boy, I drafted those guys, Reggie b. 389 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: Here's your top five fantasy wide receivers. Victor Cruz and 390 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 1: his six team targets on this list, but there's Alshon 391 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: Jeffrey and Greg Jennings ran, a couple of guys from 392 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:21,959 Speaker 1: the NFC North. Yeah, and you know what we've been 393 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: waiting for Aliston Jeffrey. He's been released on a lot 394 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: of teams because he just wasn't performing very well. And 395 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: now he comes of course, he comes out and plays 396 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 1: well when he's on the waiver wire. All right, one 397 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: big defense that played well on Sunday, we recommended them 398 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: for you last week, the Indianapolis Colts. We also talked 399 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: about the Tennessee Titans, who had a big day, but Indianapolis, really, 400 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: when you're playing against Jacksonville Jaguars, you start that defense. 401 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 1: It really is that simple. They had a huge day 402 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: with over twenty Fantasy points. And really the Colts defense 403 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: is okay. But if you if you know you got 404 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: this is the year you have to play the matchups 405 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 1: more than any year I think, right, you stream defenses 406 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: and less of course you have the Bears of the 407 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: Seahawks or someone like that, but if you play the Jaguars, 408 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: and by the way, the same Lewis ran to play 409 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: the Jaguars this coming week, you pick up that defense 410 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: and you play them that offense has no firepower and 411 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: they turned the ball over a lot. Jeeves too. They're 412 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 1: a team that you play weekend and we got no 413 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: regardless of the matchup. Jaguar is very disappointing against you 414 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 1: look a who to play against these defenses. Now, how 415 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: about some other Week four disappointments, guys, you're playing individually 416 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: in A J. Green, he was on Haven's Island on Sunday, 417 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,400 Speaker 1: although Fabs, I know you see that minus one tenth 418 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: to a point from Stevie Johnson because I know you 419 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: started him in the experts. Yeah, I know, Ackbar gave 420 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 1: me a thrashing in that league this week. But you 421 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: know what, it's not how you started, how you finish. 422 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: But back to A J. Green, I'm not worried about him. 423 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 1: This week he played Joe Hayden. Last week he played 424 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: against I Taylor. I tell he's a darn good cover corner. 425 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: So two of his first four games have been really 426 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 1: tough matchups. He will bounce back. If I'm a fantasy 427 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: uwner of A. J. Green. I'm more worried about Andy 428 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: Dalton because he has regressed. Guys. Doug Martin is someone 429 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: who's disappointed and you're kind of in no man's land 430 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: with Doug Martin because you can't trade him because you're 431 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: not going to get value for him. But you put 432 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 1: him in your lineup every week and he's not really performing. Yes, 433 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: he's averaging ten Fantasy points a week. This guy you 434 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 1: took in the top five, he's a victim right now 435 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: of a bad Tampa Bay offense. The right now. Rank 436 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: is segueing to a new quarterback and Mike Glennon, and 437 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: there's gonna be growing pains and this type of tough 438 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: sledding is going to continue for Doug Martin, and they're 439 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: really gonna try to throw the ball with Mike Glennon 440 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 1: going forward to as they did against the Arizona Cardinals 441 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: on Sunday. But it also makes me think of m 442 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 1: j D. Another guy, another high pedigree guy who at 443 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: least you probably drafted him as a flex guy because 444 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: he was coming off an injury. He's not a first 445 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: round draft pick like Doug Martin was, but m j D. 446 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: I feel his situation is more dire because that offense 447 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: is completely miserable, and with a guy like Doug Marton, 448 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: I feel that that offense will get better later in 449 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: the season. I don't see any hope for the Jaguars. 450 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: But again, he's a flex guy. That's the best you 451 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 1: can hope for him. You play him each and every week, 452 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: and you thought this was a good matchup against the 453 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: coltson wasn't. So you stuck are in fantasy purgatory. How 454 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: par When you think disappointments, I think of a king. Yes, 455 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: I think if I came out, he's supposed to be 456 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: working for you. But he doesn't work on my fantasy. 457 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: To what I mean when you look at how Keen Knicks, 458 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: I mean just a poor display on Sunday against the Chiefs. 459 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: Targeted nine times and only brought in three catches for 460 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: thirty three yards. I mean that to me is a 461 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: pitiful performance. You thought how Keen Knicks would be back 462 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: in his groove and but look, you can't blame it 463 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: on injury the time. Yes, he's got the little finger injury, 464 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: but he said so himself that it had nothing to 465 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: do with his finger engines dislocated finger. How Keen Knicks 466 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: hasn't been the guy. He's not winning the matchups that 467 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 1: he's supposed to have. Outside of Victor Cruz, I don't 468 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: know you can start a new Giants fabs. Can you 469 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: start Russell Wilson every week? No, you can't, And he 470 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: proved that yesterday against the Houston Texans. Now, granted their 471 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: offensive line is all banged up, they're missing a bunch 472 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 1: of starters, but if Russell Wilson couldn't do that run 473 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: with the football, he had given you about five fantasy 474 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: points yesterday against Houston. This is a guy who you're 475 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: starting based on the matchups. Remember, at the end of 476 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 1: last year, it didn't matter who's and the guy was awesome. 477 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: This season so far, not so much. You're playing the 478 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: matchups with Russell Wilson unfortunately, probably drafted a measure one. 479 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: Now he's more of a borderline one. But there's still 480 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: a room for him to bounce back though. It really is. 481 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: It's disappointing when a guy is playing well as a 482 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: quarterback and it doesn't translate into fantasy. You know, the 483 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 1: best thing to do, just like in reality, is you 484 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: bench a player in fantasy. And sometimes I feel like 485 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: they can feel when you've been that sends a message 486 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 1: and you put them back in the start lineup and say, hey, 487 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: don't miss it up and it usually works. So America 488 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: bench C. J. Spiller and bench Very Rice and maybe 489 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: they'll bounce back. I like that, And Russell Wilson, your 490 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,239 Speaker 1: message should be PERSI are you okay? Can you come 491 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: back to real soon? We need you coming out Monday 492 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:41,959 Speaker 1: and fantasy football means it's time to put in your 493 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: waiver claims. Which god should be on your roster for 494 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: next week? Who'll give you our list of the game's 495 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: best pickups? And they say ninety percent of life is 496 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 1: just showing up. Well of fantasy life is getting the 497 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: ball in your hands. Who had the most opportunities in 498 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 1: Week four and what does it mean for the rest 499 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: of the season. We'll tell you is NFL Fantasy Live 500 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: continues coming up? Who had them those targets and touches 501 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: in Week four? We've got the list of players quarterbacks 502 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 1: look to the most and why it matters for your 503 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: fantasy squad. The quarterback position has been turned upside down 504 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: as we entered the heart of bye week season. Which 505 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: signal callers can you trust? Off the waiver wire will 506 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: tell you why Hoyer isn't named to remember. Plus, we're 507 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: going inside the numbers and tell you why a few 508 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: of your fantasy stars have struggled this season. This is 509 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live. Every week on NFL dot Com, I 510 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: write a column called Targets and Touches. It spotlights the 511 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,199 Speaker 1: pass catches who amass the most targets every week and 512 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: the running backs whose total touches that week merit attention. 513 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 1: Hopefully this helps you decide which players are worthy of 514 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: starting or picking up in free agency and which ones 515 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: are just a passing fancy and will kick things off 516 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: with Levy on Bell and Fabs. He has a running 517 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: game all to himself. Felix Jones three touches on Sunday. 518 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: Bell is the guy I like. How Akbar smiled out 519 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: there when we mentioned Levian Bell because you and I 520 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: and Adam all like Levian Bell. Sorry except for me. 521 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: This was a very good matchup against the Vikings, and hey, 522 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: he didn't have a lot of yard, but those touchdowns 523 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: were big and he proved that. Felix Jones, Sianara, Jonathan 524 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: Dwyer out the back door. It's time for the Levian 525 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: Bell era in Pittsburgh's backfield, and he's still available in 526 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: about NFL dot com leagues. Go get this man right now. 527 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: Staying in the ANFC North. How about Ray Rice and 528 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 1: Bernard Pierce hock Bar just nine combined rushes. Ray Rice 529 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,919 Speaker 1: had five of them. They didn't run the football from 530 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 1: the midwife point in the second quarter till late in 531 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. To me, it's clear now this offense 532 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: goes through Joe Flacca, which means ray Rice's numbers are 533 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: gonna deteriorate. Yeah, you're gonna see the deterioration. When you 534 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: talk about Flackle throwing out the ball nearly fifty times 535 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: in this game, I mean he's looking for Tory Smith. 536 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 1: So that means Tory Smith, of course his his stock 537 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: goes up. But Ray Rice, to me, I don't understand. 538 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: You know, the game used to be where you you 539 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: started your game from the run game Ray Rice is 540 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: now you know, split time and less Carrios. So those 541 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: are the touches. Here are the most targeted players in 542 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: Week four and well, honestly, fence Walter White had the 543 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: most targets in weekfoter, but here's Victor Cruz at the 544 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: top of less with sixteen. Martella's Bennett Jordan Cameron, Andre Johnson, 545 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: Cecil Shorts, Tory Smith all had twelve targets. Tory Smith 546 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: coming on. He's having a great season FABS, but all 547 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: Shan Jeffrey is someone who he's getting more and more 548 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: attention from Jake Culer as the weeks go on. Yeah, 549 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: he had eleven target against the Lions. Last week he 550 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: had eight targets. So this is a kid who the 551 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 1: Bears are starting to utilize more in the passing game. 552 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: And Alshon Jeffrey's a big boy, He's got a nice 553 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: pedigree out of college. Uh, they think this kid could 554 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: be the heir apparent to Brandon Marshall down the line 555 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: right now during the bio weeks Alshean Jeffrey warrants a 556 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: roster spot. I'm not saying you startom if you only 557 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: start two wide receivers, but at the very least pick 558 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: him up off the waiver while you know. Roster spot 559 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: could also go to Jerome Simpson, who had far and 560 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: away the most targets on the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Yes, 561 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: Greg Jennings did have a couple of nice catches, but 562 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: he had four. Jerome Simpson was thrown to eleven times 563 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 1: over a hundred yards, the second hundred yard game of 564 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: the season for Simpson. Clearly he's got a spot in 565 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 1: this passing game, whether it's Christian Ponder or Matt Castle 566 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: throwing the football. And that's the big thing. It's not 567 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: quarterback specific for him. So he deserves to be owned. 568 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: And like Fabis you said with the bywe's coming up Simpsons, 569 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 1: a guy that might be a good replacement Victor Cruz 570 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: bar sixteen targets, big day. What can you say about it? Well, 571 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: you just said at sixteen targets, That's what I was 572 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: gonna say. Well, when you look at Victor Cruz, I 573 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: mean Victor Cruz. He's become dependable to Eli Manning because 574 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: King Nicks has really regressed in this offense. He's become 575 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: way too sketchy. But Victor Cruz has a lot of flexibility. 576 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 1: You can line him up in the slot, you can 577 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: line him up in the z. And you saw him 578 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: this game against the Chiefs. He ran man nine while 579 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: right there you can see and no one expects Victor 580 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: Cruz to run a nine route, got behind the defender 581 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 1: there and a touchdown. That's what why Eli Manning will 582 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: continue to go to it. You know you mentioned the 583 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: Keen Knicks. I have one of my fantasy teams i'd 584 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 1: rather start a janitor at McDonald's at this point. He's 585 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: been that bad for the last couple of weeks and 586 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 1: then one thing with Victor Cruz. He's really a flex 587 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: play because, to be honest, Brandon Flowers missed the entire 588 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: game on Sunday, so he had some inflated totals there 589 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: that maybe he doesn't get a Flowers winds up playing. 590 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: Giants are in trouble. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they are so 591 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: all right before FABS and I go to McDowell's. You 592 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: need help with the tight end position. We've got a 593 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: couple of tight ends available in nearly every league to 594 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: boost your roster.

The buys are 600 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: in full force. Some stars you're gonna have to replace 601 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson r G three, Antonio Brown, Alfred Mars, Doug Martin. 602 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: Teams that are off Minnesota, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, and Washington 603 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: already a quarter of the way through the NFL season, 604 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: which means it's time to hit the waiver wire harder 605 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 1: than ever to fill in for injuries and buys. Jason 606 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: Smith here with Michael Fabiano and Adam Ranks. So, FABS, 607 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: let's take a look at your top ten waiver wire 608 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: targets four Week five. At the head of this list 609 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: Levian Bell, who we're spending a lot of time on 610 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: the show talking about today. Philip Rivers on this list, 611 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: Justin Blackman, who will get to But really, Fabs, you 612 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: see Ryan Poyer owned and just point four percent of leagues, 613 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: and really, why did not pick up Brian? I can't 614 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: believe that we have Brian Hoyer on this list. But 615 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 1: he's been that good. He is averaging over eighteen Fantasy 616 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 1: points in two starts for the Cleveland Browns. Now, I'm 617 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: not saying I'm starting on Thursday night against the Bills, 618 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 1: but it is a very good matchup and based off 619 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: of what some of these other quarterbacks have done or 620 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: not done in the statutes players. Now, I can't believe 621 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 1: I'm saying this. He's a QV two in Fantasy football alright, 622 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: rank is Philip Rivers now a QB one? Certainly Yeah, 623 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: when you start looking at the production that he's put 624 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,959 Speaker 1: up over this season, you can't ignore it. Now, if 625 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: it's somebody like Brian Hoyer, somebody who doesn't have a 626 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: resume or a history of doing very well in Fantasy, 627 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: I might be a little bit more skeptical. But Philip 628 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: Rivers has the resume. And of course his last couple 629 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: of years with North Turner worked so good. But now 630 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: he's working with Mike McCoy. Now he's working with Ken 631 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: wizzen Hunt, and it looks like Philip Rivers is back 632 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,959 Speaker 1: to being the Philip Rivers of old. And he's got 633 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: a great matchup this week, going up against the Oakland Raiders, 634 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: So he's gonna find himself on a lot of rosters. 635 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: Now you see some video hear of him throwing touchdown 636 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: passes to Danny Woodhead. He's someone again you can pick 637 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: him up this week. This is a guy who was 638 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: number twenty four last year in Fantasy and he's available. Yes. 639 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,239 Speaker 1: And the thing this is, you know me, I'm all 640 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: about the trends. And here's the thing about Danny Woodhead. 641 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 1: Now and before the Chargers, if you catch two touchdowns 642 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: from Philip Rivers, the following week, you catch three Edy Royal, 643 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: didn't we? Why don't we? I'm just following the trends. 644 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: That's all I can do. I think that's your bold prediction. 645 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: It might be don't give anything away spoil I've been 646 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: telling you guys all week. Don't give me any more spoilers. 647 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: But Danny Woodhead is a guy you can pick up 648 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: and play if you have trouble at the running back. 649 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: There just aren't a lot of good running backs out there. 650 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: So Danny Woodhead, as you see right there, his touches 651 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: have increased for three consecutive games. His points have also 652 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: increased over that stretch. So he's a guy you can 653 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: play this week. Audrey Ellington, someone get ahead of the 654 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: curve because there's not a lot of running backs out there. 655 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: Ellington two weeks ago, Bruce Arian said, boy, I really 656 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: want to see what this guy does. He's a guy 657 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 1: that can carry the load. He looks explosive. But more importantly, 658 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: after Richard Mendenhall's twenty one yard to fumble one brain 659 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: cramp day on Sunday Week ran out of bounds trying 660 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: to kill the clock, Bruce Arians very critical of Mendon 661 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 1: Hallston we have to heat, has to play better. We 662 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: have to get more out of him. Maybe he practiced 663 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: more during the week. You can tell they're itching to 664 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: make that change. Get ahead of the curve on Ellington 665 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: and you might have a guy in the next couple 666 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: of weeks. Yeah, Jonathan Franklin at the running back position 667 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,479 Speaker 1: will stick there. Now. Had a big game against the Bengals. 668 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 1: Remember you got banged up. But his value is all 669 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 1: based on Eddie Lacey's status. Now, remember Eddie Laces missed 670 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: time with a concussion. They had a bio week. Hopefully 671 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: he's gonna be back to But if he's not, Jonathan 672 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: Franklin is now worth picking up and stashing on your roster. 673 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: If he's out this week Lacy, that is, Jonathan Franklin 674 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: becomes a potential rby two or flex starter under the 675 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: watch receiver position. And it's hard to recommend picking up 676 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: a Jaguar. But justin Blackman the end of last year's 677 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: show that he was really coming on forty eight targets 678 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: in the last four games. He was becoming the number 679 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: one receiver there. Sorry, bar Cecil Shortz's role is going 680 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: to diminish. But now he's coming back from suspension, and 681 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: he's available. This offense look good in the preseason with Blackman. 682 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: He picked up in the preseason where he left off 683 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: the end of last year. He's someone to pick up 684 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 1: and own. Can you throw me your lineup right away 685 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: with the Bys? Why not? But by the middle of October. 686 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: End of October, you're gonna have a guy who's gonna 687 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: help jump start this offense. He caught passes from everybody 688 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: last year, whether it was Blaine Gabbard or Chad Henny, 689 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: Mark Brunell, whoever else, Steve Burlin, whoever Elseo Throwe passes 690 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: for Jacksonville. He's going to be a guy that's at 691 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,479 Speaker 1: least a flex for you the rest of the way Fabs. 692 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: Nate Washington had a huge day. I know, I'm and 693 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: this is actually two weeks in a row where Nate 694 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: Washington has to put up really good numbers. Now, the 695 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: loss of Jake Locker is going to hurt Nate Washington. 696 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: Now he's gonna have the Amish rifle Ryan Fitzpatrick throwing 697 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: him the football. But Nate Washington is someone now that 698 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: you can utilize during the bio weeks or use as 699 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: bench depth. This is a This is a guy who 700 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: is shown in the past that he could be a 701 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: thousand yard receiver. And Kenny Britt he seems to be 702 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: moving out of the mix in the passing game. Nate 703 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: Washington moving in especially if he can use the official 704 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: as a as a shield there and catch a lot 705 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: of touchdown you know, whatever it works rank how about 706 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: Kemberall Topkin has had a couple of nice weeks in 707 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: a row. Yeah, he had a couple of forgettable starts 708 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: early in the season, but he's really starting to come on, 709 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: really starting to get a connection with Tom Brady. And 710 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: as we moved through these fie weeks, and there's some 711 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: big time guys out, I thinking of Antonio Brown, Pierre Garson, 712 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: Kemberall Tompkins is a guy who can slide in there. 713 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: The only thing that I would caution you is there 714 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: is gonna be a point of the season where Rob 715 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: Gronkowski Danny Amendola comes back where he's not gonna be 716 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: as attractive at the start as he will be at 717 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: the coming weeks. But as long as those guys are out, 718 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: put him in your lineup all right. Tight end wise, 719 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: Kobe Fleaner against Jacksonville, why not start everybody a kind 720 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but fabbs Fleaners becoming someone you 721 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: can keep in your line up every week. Yeah, and 722 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: we said that on Sunday's NFL Fantasy Live Start Kobe Fleaner. 723 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: He put up a big number, very strong, seventy seven 724 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: yards in a touchdown. Look at the big man catching 725 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: passes from Andrew Luck. Of course they have that great 726 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: chemistry from their time together in Stanford. Right now, boys, 727 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,959 Speaker 1: Kobe Fleiner is a low end number one tight end 728 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: in Fantasy Roots rank. How about Heath Miller? Yeah, you 729 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: know what, the waiver wire can be used for the future. 730 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I understand a lot of people want to 731 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: go in and get a fixed for this week. But 732 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: if you have a need for a tight end and 733 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: can afford to have a guy who's going to be 734 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: on a by this week, which Heath Miller is, go 735 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: ahead and pick him up and stash him on your 736 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: roster thing. I mean, we're seeing it here. He's got 737 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: good chemistry with Ben Roethlisberger, that's got a history together. 738 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: So this is a guy, this is a stash and play. 739 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: This is obviously not somebody can play this week. But 740 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: I like it. It's stash him some interesting names on 741 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: the kicker board. Take a look at the top ten 742 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: kickers right now for a couple of million names on there. 743 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: But then you see David Akers, Dan Carpenter, Dan Bailey, 744 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: Nick Novak, Steven Hoshka on this list. Fast. You see 745 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: these new names, and they're available in a lot of 746 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 1: leagues because people just like to stick with the big names. 747 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 1: People fall in love with big names a kicker and 748 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,239 Speaker 1: he can't do that because based on the fact that 749 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: they don't have a big name doesn't mean that well, 750 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: I should just keep them on my fantasy team. You 751 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: need to drop these guys and pick up the guy 752 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: who are up and coming. How is Blair Walsh not 753 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: owned in every single fantasy league? He was a top 754 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: scoring kicker based on Fantasy points last year. Don't worry 755 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 1: about name pick up on production. You see the look 756 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: on my face. I feel this is an intervention because 757 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 1: I got Sebastian Janikowski on each and every one of 758 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: my teams, and I will keep Sebastian Janikowski in my 759 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 1: leagues and I will win with him even during the 760 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: bye weeks. You're playing to drop we have a bond 761 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 1: to going back to our Husky days. Alright, coming up, 762 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: don't believe everything you see in the stat sheet. Point 763 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: was that loaded. We've got a couple of deceiving fantasy 764 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: numbers that will definitely change by season. Zen this and 765 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: more as NFL Fantasy Live rolls on, Welcome back a 766 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 1: month ago. At this time, Well Madrigal was still in 767 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: business and fantasy fans were in the heart of draft season, 768 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 1: and it seemed like there was a clear top ten 769 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: at the head of the draft. Let's take a look 770 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: back to what the world looked like during those simpler times. 771 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: Remember that top ten average draft position. This is likely 772 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,720 Speaker 1: how your first run went on NFL dot Com. Adrian 773 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: Peterson number one overall area and foster Marshawn Lynch. Now 774 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 1: you get into some guys who wouldn't be in the 775 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,840 Speaker 1: top ten. Now, Ray Rice, Doug Martin, C J. Spiller, 776 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,879 Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson would be out, Trent Richardson would be out. 777 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: Some of these guys who are out with the most 778 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 1: egregious name. There you see Ray Rice just over seventeen 779 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: Fantasy points. Fans, What do you do? I don't know 780 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 1: how they can run the ball nine times against the 781 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. Ach far, you're the former player. I don't 782 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: know what they're thinking at this point. Ray Rice is 783 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: a guy listen. If he's active for the Raybis, he's 784 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: gotta be active for your fantasy teams. You sort of 785 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,399 Speaker 1: take your medicine and hope for the best. You gotta 786 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: stick with him. You're having ray Rice in abandoning the 787 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: run game like that? To me, she'll get it. Yeah, realistically, 788 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: he's a tour reflects is in your lineup. But that's 789 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 1: where he's at because you have other options. So if 790 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: guys like that, or if guys like ray Rice round 791 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 1: par hen me someone who has moved from outside the 792 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: first round into the first round, Well, it's gotta be 793 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning to me, I mean with his 794 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: pace right now that he's playing at it's unbelievable. He 795 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 1: had a rising star come up out of nowhere and 796 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 1: Julius Thomas. He's going now from a guy that you're 797 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 1: looking at perhaps in the fifth, sixth round, he's a 798 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: guy that I'm moving as my number one quarterback that 799 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: I'm taking because I'm number one pick overall. You know what, 800 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep him as the number one quarterback. We've 801 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: We've touted Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, it's Peyton Manny has 802 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:08,360 Speaker 1: that number one quarterback? All right, fatis, give me a 803 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:09,959 Speaker 1: guy that's in the first round for you. It's gotta 804 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: be Matt Forte. Now he snuck into the end of 805 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: the first round and allowed of drafts in August and September. 806 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 1: But now he's proving that he should be there. The 807 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: new coach, Mark Trustman is utilizing Forte the way he 808 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:22,720 Speaker 1: should have been used when he was with Lovey Smith. 809 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: Right now, Forte's eight RB one and he's even better 810 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: in PPR leagues. This guy has been fantastic this year, 811 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: and how high would you take him? He could be 812 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,360 Speaker 1: a top five pick by by the end of the season, 813 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 1: no doubt about it. I totally agree with that. I mean, 814 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 1: met Forte is that good in Trustman's offense. Right, Met 815 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: four to giving you a lot of Fantasy points. Now 816 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: for a few fantasy scores that when completely wasted, we 817 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: sent it over to Adam Rank. Thanks Jason.

No, there's too many 868 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: good tight ends still on the waiver wire, Adam that 869 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,439 Speaker 1: are better than d Walker. Well, let's take a look 870 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: at the waiver wire and see some of those names. 871 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 1: And what do you think Kobe Kobe Fleaner.

Steve 887 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 1: Sable's impact on the NFL was like no other. An 888 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,799 Speaker 1: innovator who transformed football into theater. The legacy of the 889 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:28,280 Speaker 1: man behind NFL film Steve Sable A Football Life Tomorrow, 890 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: nine pm Eastern, only on NFL Network. You're gonna talk 891 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 1: a little fantasy versus reality for a couple of quarterbacks 892 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 1: who have been struggling so far this season. You think 893 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: they're having one kind of year, when really they're having 894 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 1: the other. And the first guy we're gonna get to 895 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: is Andrew Luck, who, even though he had a nice 896 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,400 Speaker 1: day on Sunday, still so far hasn't been performing like 897 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 1: a number one fantasy quarterback. However, think about this. So 898 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,360 Speaker 1: far for Luck, He's had two touchdowns negated by a penalty, 899 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: one touchdown called back because of a challenge, twice his 900 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,919 Speaker 1: wide doubts have been tackled inside the five on long 901 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 1: pass plays, and he actually had a touchdown run eliminated 902 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 1: is the previous play was challenged just prior to his score, 903 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:06,320 Speaker 1: So that six touchdowns Luck hasn't gotten that he easily 904 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: could have had. So it's not been as bet as 905 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,919 Speaker 1: season as you think for him off far. Well, look, 906 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:11,479 Speaker 1: I mean we're still at the end of the first 907 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 1: quarter of the season, still a long season. I think 908 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 1: he's only gonna get better. A right Colin Kaepernick, who's 909 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 1: been playing well on the field, but fabs fantasy not 910 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: so much. Yeah, well we saw that last week right 911 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 1: against the St. Louis Rands. He had a passer rating 912 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: that was over one fifteen, but he only had thirteen 913 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 1: fantasy points. So Colin Kaepernick and I think guys you 914 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: would agree with this. The loss of Michael Crawtree has 915 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: really hurt him. And the fact that they're changed the 916 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: offense a little bit, they're not running as much of 917 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: the pistol is also affecting his value. He's not running 918 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 1: as much this season as well. I get the concern, 919 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 1: but when a quarterback is playing well, I know that 920 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,360 Speaker 1: at some point during the season that's gonna start translating 921 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: into fantasy points. So I understand everybody want. You know, 922 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 1: it's early in the season. Everybody probably drafted him as 923 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: their number one quarterback. But this guy is gonna come back. 924 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,400 Speaker 1: He's gonna produce, he's gonna put up big numbers. You 925 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 1: know if St. Louis they're holding up there into the 926 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: bargain in this game because if they play a little 927 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:07,920 Speaker 1: bit better, a couple of touchdowns. So I blame St. Louis, 928 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:09,879 Speaker 1: you know. It's it's funny though some of the guys 929 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: are from last year that not really your matchup based guys. 930 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 1: But guys, you don't just automatically plug in your lineup. 931 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: It's more important than ever to have that number two 932 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: guy because you may have to play him for an 933 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,759 Speaker 1: extended time. There's times that that absolutely happens. We talked 934 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,839 Speaker 1: about Philip Rivers earlier in the show. Here's a guy 935 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: that you can now feel confident putting him in and 936 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: playing him, especially when he's got a good matchup this 937 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 1: week against the Oakland Raiders. Yeah, no doubt about that. 938 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 1: And that doesn't happen at a lot of positions in 939 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 1: fantasy where starters come off the waiver wire like they 940 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 1: had as the quarterback position this year, Philip Rivers being 941 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,320 Speaker 1: a prime example. It's Roll Prior starting this week against 942 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: the Chargers. That's all right, a lot more waiver wire 943 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 1: information for you tomorrow, because don't get caught by the 944 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: bye week Blues. We are back with our top spot 945 00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 1: starts the week Tuesday, five pm Eastern, right here on 946 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:54,879 Speaker 1: NFL Network
