00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: Michael Fabiana, who is pretty much missing part of a

13
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: tooth right now. I hate going to the dentist, man.

14
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: I can't stand it. So, you know, when you're a kid,

15
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 1: you get those silver crowns put in your mouth, and

16
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: after twenty eight years or so, they start to erode

17
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: and rott and you've got to get it removed. And

18
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: they give you these temporary little rubber deals that they

19
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: put into your tooth, and uh, yeah, that happened yesterday,

20
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: and this morning the damn thing already fell out. So

21
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 1: I've got a giant gaping hole in one of my teeth,

22
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: and I can't eat and I can't drink. So I'm

23
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: gonna be in a lovely mood for the next two hours.

24
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: But I'm glad to be joined by you, Mr Harrison.

25
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,119
Speaker 1: You're you're, you're pretty smile and those those lovely eyes

26
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 1: of yours. We just went in a whole different direction, now,

27
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: didn't we appreciate that? Clark? Alright, buddy, Well, we got

28
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: a few injuries to talk about here, a few fantasy headlines,

29
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: if you will. Let's start with number twenty in the

30
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: Raiders back fiel Darren McFadden fabbs looks like he's not

31
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: going to be a go for our Thursday night opener.

32
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: This is why you handcuff your running backs, especially guys

33
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: who are brittle like Darren McFadden, as good as he is,

34
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: always hurt, has never played a full six team game schedule,

35
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: and we'll not do it again this year. Already out

36
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: last week hopefully with the short week here, I didn't

37
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: expect him to play, but that gives him a little

38
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: extra time. To heal. Maybe he's back in time for

39
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: week eleven, but you plug in Michael Bush. He was

40
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: very good last week. I think he is a very

41
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: solid number two slash flex starter this week. Speaking of

42
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: Michael Bush, do you see any fantasy value from Marcel Reeves?

43
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: He had the long touchdown catch he's been getting in

44
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 1: the lineup, but he's not really a guy that I've

45
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,239
Speaker 1: been ready to roll the dice. Yeah, I mean I'd

46
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: rather have Taiwan Jones in there, and I wouldn't want

47
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: to have Taiwan Jones in there, let's put it that way. So, uh,

48
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: Bush is really the guy in that backfield. Uh. And

49
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: he even caught a touchdown past last week. So you

50
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: see him as this big, strapping guy, almost like a

51
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: smaller version of a Brandon Jacobs. But he can catch

52
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: the back field too. Yep, he's a power back also

53
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: in that game. Incidentally, although most of your fantasy weekends

54
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 1: are gonna be hinging on Malcolm Floyd, Malcolm Floyd is

55
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: not going to be a go against the right well Floyd.

56
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he had actually had a couple of good

57
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,839
Speaker 1: games there, uh in recent weeks. Then he gets hurt.

58
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: Another guy who's always dealt with injuries. And you're gonna

59
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,399
Speaker 1: see Vincent Brown out there for the Chargers. So when

60
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: was the last time two guys named Vincent we're starting

61
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: at the same position for the same team. That's uh,

62
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: Vincent Edward bo Jackson. And now now you're stretching things.

63
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: I probably am. Actually Malcolm Floyd I think is a

64
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: low influx at best. But when you have a week

65
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: like this week where there's no boys, I I don't

66
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: see Malcolm Floyd having a lot of value even if

67
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: he was healthy. That's covering Raiders, Chargers. A couple other

68
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: whiteouts around the league. Regarding injuries. Team Knicks, who seems

69
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: like he lives on the injury port much like Darren

70
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 1: McFadden hamstring injury, did not practice. The good thing though,

71
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: is that he was actually able to run at full

72
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: speed on Wednesday. So it's only Wednesday. Uh, you know,

73
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,839
Speaker 1: he missed a walk through. Let's see what happens later

74
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: in the week. And I wouldn't rule him, not just yet. Clearly,

75
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: Victor Cruz, Merriomanningham will be good plays uh if Nick's

76
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: is out, But it is good news that he was

77
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: actually able to run at full speed. So we'll see

78
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: what happens. I'd probably say he's questionable right now. Well,

79
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: let me stop you right there with you. You mentioned

80
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: Victor Cruz, you mentioned Merry Go banning him, and you're

81
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: showing me your tooth, which is somewhat disgusting. Uh. Mario

82
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: Manning him had a touchdown last week, but he has

83
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: been a certifiable fantasy disappointment in the same vein as

84
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: Kevin Cobb. Maybe not quite that level of disappointment or

85
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 1: Chris Johnson disappointment, but I think people were expecting a

86
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: lot more from banning him. Of this, I was too. Uh.

87
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: And listen, the season has sort of played out as

88
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: we thought it would with the Giants. You think of

89
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 1: the Giants, you think of O J Anderson, you think

90
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: of Joe Moore, should think of smash mouth and running

91
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: the football. That's not the NFL we play in right now. Uh,

92
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: They're throwing the ball. Eli Manning is on pace to

93
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: have the best sta physical season of his entire career,

94
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 1: making up for the loss of his brother the season Peyton,

95
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: and he's looked very good, really turned down on the interceptions,

96
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: hasn't been turning the ball over as much. In that

97
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: you thought we predicted in the preseason that Mario Manningham

98
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 1: would have more value. Hasn't happened. Very inconsistent. Victor Cruizer's

99
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: presence has clearly affected him. And listen if you need

100
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: a tight end. And we've been talking about Jake Ballot

101
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks. He's been good, he's seeing targets.

102
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: He scored a touchdown last week. He now has more

103
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 1: Fantasy points than Vernon Davis does. By the way, Vernon Davis,

104
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: I mean maybe we need to get an app on

105
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,039
Speaker 1: him because he has disappeared because they're taking him away.

106
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: They're not scared of who's on the outside there for

107
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: San Francisco, I mean you have crab Tree, Braylon Edwards

108
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: has been a complete fantasy non fact, and then Judge

109
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: one good years and Josh Morgan was hurt for the

110
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: taking out for the season against Tampa Bay. So there's

111
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: really no one on the outside to take the focus

112
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: away from Vernon Davis. I'm actually impressed at Frank Gore

113
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,119
Speaker 1: has had the season he's had with such a little

114
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: threat from the passing game you played in the box

115
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: against and they're still getting And do you remember the

116
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 1: first couple of weeks and everyone was freaking out about

117
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: what's wrong with should we drop now? What has he

118
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: got four yard games in a row? The man is

119
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: a beast. He is a beast. Speaking of running backs

120
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: and staying with the New York Giants, I'm not Bradshaw.

121
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: He has that foot. He has a crack bonus foot.

122
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: Tom Coughlin said he was better. He's walking around, but

123
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: I'm not Bradshaw right now, It's still not a good

124
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: option for your fantasy team, staying with running backs job

125
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: at best, likely out against the Bears, which means we

126
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: wrong with Mo Morris again. Yeah, back to the Giants

127
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: for a second, though. Even if Bradshaw plays, you bench

128
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: him against the forty Niners, And even if he's out

129
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: and Jacobs gets to be the bell cow no more

130
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 1: than a flex man. And that's and that's only because

131
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: you're hoping that maybe he gets into the red zone

132
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: uh and scores a touchdown. The Niners have not allowed

133
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: a running back to rush for a touchdown all season long,

134
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: and going back the job at best, Listen, you've got

135
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: to just sort of hope that everything's gonna be okay

136
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 1: with him in a long term because Moe Morris is

137
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: clearly no job at best, and he is a real

138
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: risk against the Bears this week. Again, a guy that

139
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: maybe you use as a flex starter. That's about it.

140
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: They signed Kevin Smith, remember Kevin Smith, who out of

141
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: Central Florida, who actually was supposed to be this very talented,

142
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: uh skilled running back who was going to be their

143
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: featured guy who sort of fell out of favor and

144
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: was released at one point. Um, I don't see him

145
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: having any fantasy value at this point right now, we'll

146
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 1: see what happens. Hopefully Best is back sooner than later,

147
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: because he's out several weeks already and those concussions can

148
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: be really tricky. Yeah. Well, the the forty Niners. You know,

149
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: we just talked about crab Tree Edwards and it's amazing

150
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: Frank Gore's running against eight in the box. Crab Tree

151
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 1: is a decent at best fantasy played, Braylon Edwards, like

152
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: we said, non factor, Josh Morgan out for the year,

153
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: Vernon Davis disappointing, and yet that team is seven and

154
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: one and it's because of that defense. So if you

155
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: have somebody going up against the forty Niners defense and

156
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: you have another somewhat viable option. You sit teams against

157
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: the forty honors, You sit players against shit, those running

158
00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 1: backs especially, and and this is the best example of

159
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: why you don't draft the defense until one of the

160
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: last couple of rounds. Right now, three of the top

161
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: eight defenses in fantasy football, the Niners are number one.

162
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: You've got the Bengals up there and the Texans, and

163
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: most drafts did not include any one of those three

164
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: defenses being taken. So that's why you wait on these defenses.

165
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: And even look at the kicker position. Nick Novak's come

166
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: out of nowhere to replace Nick Kating. Uh, Guys like

167
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: Dan Bailey, Billy Condiff. Remember that strategy when you're drafting

168
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 1: in right. Well, I've talked about the Bengals and the

169
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: Texans defense at nauseum, and one of the reasons is

170
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: because they've gotten miscellaneous touchdowns this year. You have to

171
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: factor in special teams. The Bengals have a fumble recovery

172
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: for a touchdown, a couple of picks six is, and

173
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: a part return. They're going up against the Steelers this week.

174
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 1: Is there anyone on the Steelers you would consider sitting

175
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,199
Speaker 1: because of that matchup? You know, what I'm benching Roethlisberger

176
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: this week in favor of Matt Castle, and people think

177
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: I'm crazy. I liked Castle last week, and I know

178
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 1: he didn't have a good game, but look at the numbers.

179
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: In my research, I found this amazing Ben Roethlisberger, who

180
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: was putting up some fantasy points over the last three

181
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: or four weeks. Look at his numbers against the Bengals

182
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: in his last five games against Cincinnati, Okay, and they've

183
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: only allowed the six view of fantasy points to quarterbacks

184
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: this year. Roethlisberger has averaged two twenty two passing yards

185
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: and thrown three touchdowns. Yikes. Not good. And this is

186
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: this is going back a few years too, so I

187
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: think the last time he had two touchdowns and more

188
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: against the Bengals was two thousand and eight and Mike

189
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: Zimmer was in the defensive coordinator there at that time.

190
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 1: So you've got to think sometimes these trends are strange

191
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 1: and uh, just like the Madden curse for example. Right,

192
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: And I'm a little worried about Roethlisberger this week. In fact,

193
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: again I just said I'm playing Castle over him. Well,

194
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: if if I'm listening in to to my car right now,

195
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: and I hear you say it played Castle after the

196
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: week he had against the Dolphins. What would you say

197
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: to that argument? Listen, the Broncos have allowed the most

198
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: fantasy points two quarterbacks this season. They've been terrible. Carson

199
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: Palmer had a huge game against them. They've been given

200
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: up fantasy points handover fist. Actually, they're either first or

201
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 1: second in terms of giving up the most to the

202
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 1: quarterback position. So one bad week, I'm not gonna lose

203
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: faith in Matt Castle. I still think he's got an

204
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: approved Corps wide receivers. Uh, they're gonna throw the football

205
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: as a home game and if nothing else, that team

206
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: should be embarrassed for letting a bad Dolphins defense just

207
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: overtake them on the offensive line. So I still row

208
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: a Castle. I could still see two fifty and two

209
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: touchdowns easily. We've also talked about the Garrett Blunt a

210
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: lot on NFL Fantasy Live on NFL Network and Houston Texans,

211
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: who we just mentioned their defense, that's who he's facing.

212
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: How would you feel about Blunt versus the Texans? I

213
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 1: don't like him. You know what, last week didn't do much.

214
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: Of course, they were behind, so the Texans again one

215
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: of those teams that we didn't see coming. Uh. Defensively,

216
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: we thought they would be better with with Wade Phillips.

217
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: We didn't think they were gonna be this good right now.

218
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 1: If you look at the numbers the Houston Texans, I

219
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: can't believe I'm saying this, the Houston Texans some of

220
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: the positive about their defense because they've always been so bad.

221
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: They've given up the third fewest fantasy points to running backs.

222
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,959
Speaker 1: That's a big stat I'm staying away from la Garrett

223
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 1: blown and that's without their two pound side linebacker Mario Williams,

224
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: right exactly, So Blunt's a risk this week. We don't

225
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: talk a lot about Wade Phillips and fantasy discussions, but

226
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: he's got to be given a lot of credit for

227
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: what he's done in Houston. As a Cowboys fan, you

228
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: saw what happened last year, but the Texans of the

229
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: real deal. And again they've got three miscellaneous touchdowns, which

230
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: is not just about stopping people. It's also about picking

231
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: up defenses on the waiver wire. If I had to

232
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: press you on a defense to pick up on the

233
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: waiver wire this week, who would you go first? I'd

234
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: probably say Cleveland at home. I think I think the

235
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: Browns have a good match up against the Rams. I'll

236
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 1: tell you though, in doing the research for startument sid

237
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: him this week and my rankings, the defenses that have

238
00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: the best matchups play other crappy teams like the Colts

239
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: and the Jaguars are teams that you want to play

240
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: your defense against. They're playing against each other. Who do

241
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: you play? Right? The Jaguars? Okay, well, I mean they

242
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: had that great week against the Baltimore Ravens where they

243
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: held them in check. It's a road game there in Indianapolis.

244
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: Curtis Painter has looked more like a painter than a

245
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,199
Speaker 1: quarterback over the last couple of weeks. Do you go

246
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: with the Jaguars? Maybe roll the dice. The good thing

247
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: is that you have no bias this week, so there

248
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,439
Speaker 1: are more defenses available than there have been. But I

249
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 1: think the Browns probably are the best bet in terms

250
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 1: of a defense that's out there on the waiver wire

251
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: that you can go out and pick up right now. Well,

252
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns, I love their defensive matchup against the Rams.

253
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: And by the way, if we're referencing the Cleveland Browns,

254
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 1: Andrew Siciliano probably the biggest Browns homer there is any

255
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: Cleveland team, any Cleveland team, big Indians fan and also

256
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: the host of Total Access mony through Thursday, joining us

257
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: in our fantasy leagues. Also with us, Yeah, he killed

258
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 1: me this past week about in our experts league. One

259
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 1: problem though, the you're talking about cruddy teams playing cruddy teams.

260
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: So the Browns are matched up against the Rams, there's

261
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: a good chance that that game morphs into a Steven

262
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: Jackson and whoever is playing tailback for the Browns, whether

263
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: it's Obaniah, and you don't see a lot of past attempts,

264
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: and a lot of times it's hard for your defense

265
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 1: to score when you don't get the sacks and you

266
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: don't get the interceptions because the other team's quarterback isn't

267
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 1: throwing the ball. Look at the matchups, right, Okay, Seattle, Yeah,

268
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: the Ravens are no brainer defensive play. This week, the

269
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: Rams play the coal The Rams play the Browns, the

270
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: Colts play the Jags. The Redskins, who have allowed the

271
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: fourth most fantasy points defense, is facing them. They're playing

272
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Do you want to trust the Dolphins? Uh?

273
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: The charge? The Chargers are up there to do you

274
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: trace the trust the Raiders after what happened to them.

275
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be a high scoring game on

276
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: Thursday Night. So it's tough to pick a quality matchup

277
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: based defense because of the opponents. You know, we we

278
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: once we talked about job at Best, we talked about

279
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 1: Almond Bradshaw and we kind of seguated a defense and

280
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: two shar Choice was signed by the Redskins, kind of

281
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 1: an under the radar move the Cowboys that cut ties

282
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: with him to go with the kid Philip Tanner along

283
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: with the course to Marco Murray. But talking about Philip

284
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,559
Speaker 1: Tanner has number two on the depth chart, two shar Choice.

285
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 1: He has some injury problems. I'm sure a lot of

286
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 1: people are thinking, hey, this might be a good waiver

287
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: wire pick up. I'm not buying it. Two shar Choice

288
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: hasn't shown anything in a Cowboys uniform in the last

289
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: couple of years. He had a little bit of FuMB alitis,

290
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: uh this year. That's one of the reasons I think

291
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: that he got cut. Do you see any value for

292
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: two Shard Choice? You know what, you never say never

293
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: with Mike Shanahan. You never do because we can remember

294
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: the names Reuben Drones and Landa Scary and Uh Tatum Bell.

295
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: The list goes on and on of guys who came

296
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: out of nowhere, so you never know exactly. Listen, I

297
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: can't predict what Shannahan is gonna do. He drives people

298
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: crazy and fantasy Land. I'm sure that there's more than

299
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: one fantasy when you're out there who has a picture

300
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: of Mike Shanahan up in his den in his fantasy

301
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: football man cave and throws darts at that at that

302
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: SOB every single week. But right now it's Alu and

303
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: Uh your row with roy and you hope that he

304
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: remains in a featured role because Shanahan did say that

305
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: Ryan Turane is not going to see the field unless

306
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: he Lou is tired. We'll see what happens, likely to

307
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: Chard Royce will start this week, and we'll continue to

308
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: hate Mike shanahanber right now, it's a lou. Another bit

309
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: of news, UH and John Hanson in the previous show

310
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: mentioned this that Jason Hansen, who is the best kicker

311
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: in fantasy football right now. We've talked kickers a lot

312
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: in the first segment here. I don't know I don't

313
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: know that he's gonna play this week because he had

314
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: he's got stitches in his knee. So if you have Hanson, uh,

315
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: and remember the Lions are coming off the bye week.

316
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: I have him on a couple of my teams. Looks

317
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: like you gotta look elsewhere for kicking. Help. Jason Hanson

318
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: has been kicking in the NFL for the Lion since nine. Yeah,

319
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: he has been there forever. That is forever. He's old

320
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: enough that he almost was in Tecmo Super Bowl. Anytime

321
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: Elliot Harrison can bring up tech most Super Bowl, he

322
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: does it. You love that man. And you know, before

Speaker 1: And and he's actually got a little girl's backpack thing

328
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: going on too. I don't know what that deal is.

329
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: What is that? I don't know. But we're gonna get

00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: have you with us on this Wednesday afternoon. We're talking

341
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: a little starts and sits and uh, Michael Fabiano running backs.

342
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: We've been talking about him a lot with the injury

343
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 1: situation with job at Best. We talked to shar choice

344
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: almad Bradshaw and you already mentioned that you would sit

345
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: Brandon Jacobs. But who are some of your starts this week? Again,

346
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: Typically I don't ever put a leak guys into start

347
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: um and sid him because it's obvious. Chris Johnson Elliott,

348
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: I think we can agree, is not a lead anymore,

349
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: a guy who is just having an awful season. But

350
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: I play him this week against the Panthers. Uh. He

351
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 1: did show some flashes last week a hundred ten scrimmag

352
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: Jars average about four point six yards per carry, and

353
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,719
Speaker 1: the Panthers have a lot more fantasy points running back

354
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 1: to any team. I go with CJ this week. Willis mcgahey,

355
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: who boit. He shocked the heck out of everybody last week.

356
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: Luckily I saw that he was active and played him

357
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 1: over nor Shown Marino because he went off had a

358
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: hundred sixty yards two touchdowns. He's like reborn there in

359
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 1: that offense. Great match up against the Chiefs. They have

360
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: a lot of the fifth most fantasy points to running backs. Uh,

361
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 1: either one of the charges running backs, I mean Mike Tilbert,

362
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: Ryan Matthews. Both guys are are good players. I think

363
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: Matthews is better or maybe told which are three? Uh?

364
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: Flex kind of idea flex kind of play there. The

365
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: Raiders are just terrible if Matthews is fully held terrible right.

366
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: Ben Jarvis Grinnell's has sucked out for two weeks in

367
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: a row now or three weeks in a row right now,

368
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 1: But I still play him against the Jets. Last time

369
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: he faced the Men in Green, he scored close to

370
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 1: twenty seven fantasy points. They can't stop the run. He's

371
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: a flex guy. And we always talk about goal line

372
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: touches and Jarvis green Elys is usually the guy that's

373
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: getting him. And somebody I really like this week is

374
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: Jonathan Stewart. Uh. Stewart is a guy who I think

375
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: he has really vaulted over to Angela Williams as the

376
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: better fantasy back in Carolina. Good matchup against the Titans. Uh.

377
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: And another backup running back that I'm gonna say start

378
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 1: this week as a flex is Ben Tate. He's had

379
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: a hundred yards or more on the ground in two

380
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: other last three weeks, and he's got a really good

381
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 1: matchup this week. So I think I think that Ben Tate,

382
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: despite the fact that he's behind maybe the best running

383
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 1: back in fantasy football at least top three, Arian Foster,

384
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: he is still the guy you play as a flex.

385
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: He's been productive, they're giving him enough touches to produce

386
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: for fantasy owners. And great match up against the Bucks. Yeah,

387
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: and to qualify that that's not a running back by committee,

388
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,199
Speaker 1: Arian Foster is a clear sure. But they're running the

389
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: ball so much and people are so disappointed match shop. Well,

390
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 1: it's easy to just disappointed match Shop from a fantasy perspective,

391
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: but the guy's not having a bad year. He's just

392
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 1: doing what the coaching staff wants him to do, which

393
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 1: is hand the rock off. Houston is playing defense, they're

394
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: running the football, and they're basically saying, look, we're not

395
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 1: gonna run Arian Foster thirty eight times. So as long

396
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 1: as they're committed and Ben taking average five yards to carry,

397
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 1: it's worth the play. Even if he only get you

398
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 1: sixty five yards and you get you a touchdown, You're

399
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 1: talking about twelve point five fantasy points right there, exactly.

400
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: And if you're in a league where you got twelve

401
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: or more teams and you're getting ten or twelve points

402
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: when reflect spot, you're sitting pretty And especially next week

403
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 1: when we have the buys again, you're gonna have to

404
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: look at some guys that you wouldn't normally look at

405
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: this week because the scheduling anomaly no buys. Of course,

406
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,120
Speaker 1: Uh as far as sits, who are you looking at? Well,

407
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: I mentioned a mom bratshown. We actually talked about la

408
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: Gary Blunt also, so uh, I'd also avoid Cedar Benson

409
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: against the Steelers. Now, earlier in the year, the Steelers

410
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: not very good, uh in terms of stopping the run.

411
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: But they've picked it up lately. So since Aaron Foster

412
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 1: destroyed them a few weeks back, they've average. They've given

413
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: up an average of eight point five to fantasy points

414
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: to the last five starting running backs that they faced.

415
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: Mark Shawn Lynch. I was dead wrong on him last week.

416
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 1: He had a great game against the Cowboys. I didn't

417
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: like him. I don't like him again against the Ravens. Uh.

418
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 1: It's gonna be in the great Northwest there. But the

419
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,400
Speaker 1: Ravens defense against the run has been very good. They've

420
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: allowed the second fewest fantasy points anyone in a Colts

421
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: uniform at the running back position. You want nothing to

422
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: do with. The Jaguars actually have been good against the run,

423
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: and that thing is a mess. Joseph Dive has been

424
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 1: actor for two weeks and hasn't touched the ball. I

425
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: think if anybody you pick up Donald Brown and use

426
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: him as a flex. But it's a risk and Beanie

427
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,880
Speaker 1: Wells great matchup. The Eagles have given up the fourth

428
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: most fantasy points to running backs, but boy, he looked

429
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: tentative and ineffective against a bad Rams run defense last week.

430
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 1: I think he's a risk. Well, that's a game that

431
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: you'd like to see young running back takeover. It's against

432
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: a week team, it's a close, overtime time game. It's

433
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: not like the Cardinals were playing from twenty one down.

434
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,199
Speaker 1: That's the kind of game that Bennie Wills needs to

435
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,239
Speaker 1: have eighty five yards rushing instead. I think he went

436
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: for thirty one and he looked tentative to the whole

437
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: what's so odd and mind boggling about it is against

438
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 1: the Ravens, he had eighty three yards in the touch Yeah,

439
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: and I'm not saying that you should bench him without question,

440
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: just be aware that, um, there's there's some issues there

441
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 1: with that knee. I just saw tweet from our Lindsay Soto,

442
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: who's in one of our fantasy leagues with us as well.

443
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 1: Soto plays in six fantasy leagues. Now. Hugh Jackson has

444
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,199
Speaker 1: officially declared McFadden out, So it's definitely gonna be the

445
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: Michael bus Show against the Chargers, which hurts my team.

446
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: Plants are smashy itis tough when you don't handcuff with Bush.

447
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 1: I tried. I know it's tough round. Are you going

448
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,120
Speaker 1: to make that? No? I I know it's it's hard

449
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: because he alone has some fantasy value because he sees

450
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: some goal line work. He still sees enough touches where

451
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: he can get you maybe eight nine fantasy points a week.

452
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: And uh, I have him in both of my leagues

453
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,640
Speaker 1: that I have McFadden luckily, so I'm not hurting that bad.

454
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: But boy, if Dar McFadden could ever stay healthy for

455
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: a full year, that guy could lead the league in

456
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: rushing yards. He could be number one overall pick easily.

457
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 1: You know, I wanted to get Michael Bush. I was

458
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: sitting next to your desk during our fantasy draft, and

459
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 1: I thought it was a little early to take him.

460
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: But I think, you know what, I still need to

461
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: get him because I have McFadden, have so much invested

462
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: in McFadden first round pick, and somebody took him. I

463
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 1: thought he went a little early, but that's the way

464
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: it goes. We actually have Mike and Vegas. Who has

465
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 1: a trade question. Mike, what's going on? Thanks? Hey, guys,

466
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: what do you what do you guys think about dealing

467
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: Romo and m j D for Rogers? Straight up? What

468
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 1: does that leave you with at running back? Uh? And

469
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 1: off the surface, I'd say if you can get Rogers

470
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: right now, but I wouldn't do the deal if you're

471
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: just dead at running back loosely m j D. Yeah,

472
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,239
Speaker 1: that's kind of lead me with with four K and

473
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 1: Michael Bush and once McFadden comes back. What else are

474
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 1: you looking at it run back? Uh? Probably mars Shawn

475
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 1: lynch Man, I'll tell you. I traded for Aaron Rodgers,

476
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: and boy, I love having him on my fantasy team. Um,

477
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,919
Speaker 1: it's it's a tough call. How much faith do you

478
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: have in Marshawn n I think I'd do it. I

479
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: think I do it man getting Aaron Rodgers Like, I

480
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 1: played Aaron Rodgers in two leagues last week and got slaughtered.

481
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: I played him on my team. I actually made a

482
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,919
Speaker 1: trade with Scotty Angel a couple of weeks ago to

483
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 1: get Aaron Rodgers, and I blasted the guy played. So

484
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, Romo is good, m j D is good,

485
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: but Rodgers is just He's just supernatural. I want to

486
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 1: take a little difference take on this. I agree with you.

487
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: I would make this deal. And here's why I would

488
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 1: make this deal. I think the Cowboys are realizing that

489
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: their best chance to win, even though Romo played very

490
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 1: well last week, is to give the ball to Marco

491
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,120
Speaker 1: Murray and play the best defense they can, which means

492
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: that Romo is not gonna put a huge fantasy points.

493
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: Keep in mind, my is Austin hurt right now with

494
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 1: a recurring hamstring injury. Uh Marshawn Lynch. I don't love him,

495
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 1: but as bad as virus Jackson can be, Pete Carroll

496
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: may just have to try to ride his horse there,

497
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: and if he does that, that plays well into your hands,

498
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: and then you end up okay. And he's got Forte

499
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: who's a nut. I mean, that guy is fantastic, and

500
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: he's in a contract to your bears. If you're listening,

501
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 1: don't pay him until next season for fantasy owners, right, Um,

502
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: I do it. And then where you really come out

503
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 1: like gangbusters on this deal is if Darren McFadden's foot

504
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: injury end up being a lot worse than we and

505
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 1: then you've got a featured back. You got a feature

506
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 1: back for the next couple of weeks. So I think

507
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 1: I'm with you, Fabs. I think you make that trade.

508
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,880
Speaker 1: We've got Andrew Siciliano from Total Access on NFL Network

509
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 1: coming up the next hour, and we're gonna talk some

510
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: wide receivers quarterbacks, and coming up next we're gonna take

511
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: warrior calls, so stick with us. But right now it's

512
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: your fantasy fixed. I'll tell you what is that any doubt?

513
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: Their chiefs are one of those teams you never have

514
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: a doubt when it's their highlight. Ever, I get recognized

515
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: as a chief thoughtful anytime I hear one another thing.

516
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: If there's one concert regret, I have insaid, I've never

517
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 1: seen Megadeth live. That was Megadeth. Not too late? Right,

518
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: it's not too late, I should mention. And this is

519
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 1: probably gonna shock our producer Rob Back in the studio

520
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: that I did go see Gordon Lightfoot at u c

521
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: l A last night. I don't even know who that is.

522
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 1: I have no idea unless the guy's open enough for

523
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 1: Moley crew, I don't know what that that is. Gordon

524
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: Lightfoot is a great folk singer songwriter. And I had

525
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: to be the youngest dude in that stadium. There were

526
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: guys that looked like they just walked right off a

527
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: shrimping boat and it looked like Ernest Hemingway. I mean

528
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 1: it was a shrimp boat. Yeah. It was awesome, big

529
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,400
Speaker 1: old gray beards and like one of those hats that

530
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,239
Speaker 1: the captain on Gilligan's Island War. There are people were

531
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: straight up wearing that to the to the concert and

532
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,199
Speaker 1: there was no mosh pit, I'll admit, but there was

533
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,959
Speaker 1: like one sixty five year old gal who kind of

534
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 1: I guess you really love Gordon, so she brought him

535
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 1: flowers and she decided to dance by herself right in

536
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: front of the stage. Number I. I thought about it. Yeah, moreover,

537
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: maybe we should move on from you love moreover Gordon

538
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 1: lightfoot banter. Listen to Matt Castle highlight there. I know

539
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: you liked Matt Castle last week. Thanks didn't work out.

540
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: Who could expect that the Dolphins pass rush would play

541
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 1: like the eighty five Bears no time to throw in

542
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 1: the first half. But you like Matt Castle again this week?

543
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: You know what our friend Dave damashe says he always

544
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: quotes the late great Jerry leave me later. Know when

545
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:31,360
Speaker 1: I'm wrong, I say I'm wrong. And Castle had thirteen

546
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: point nine fantasy points, not terrible, but I thought he

547
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: was gonna have eighteen nineteen. He could do it this

548
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: week against the Broncos, and the Broncos have just been

549
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 1: terrible against the past again We talked about the fact

550
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,439
Speaker 1: that Carson Palmer lit him up last week from a

551
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective through a few interceptions. But I like Castle

552
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,439
Speaker 1: this week. Dwayne Bow, John Baldwin, Steve Breston round then

553
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,239
Speaker 1: to form that core wide receiver. So I really, I

554
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: really think that Castle is somebody that unless you have

555
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: one of these lead quarterbacks, I play him. I'm playing

556
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: him over Ben Roethlisberger this week. I'm doing it. Maybe

557
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: it's a gut reaction because Roethlisberger's numbers against the Bengals

558
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: are just terrible. I'm doing it though, Hey, you know,

559
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: thirteen point nine fantasy points from your quarter It's not terrible,

560
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 1: but he could have been better, especial if you have

561
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: Matt Forte and darn mcfad in your backfield. Hurt yeah,

562
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: and he's out. Yeah, So let's stick with that game. Though.

563
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: Tim Tebow, I know you hate Tim Tebow because I

564
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 1: always talk about Tim to Matt money Smith, who's one

565
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,199
Speaker 1: of our boys on NFL Fantasy Live. He and I

566
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 1: have a little thing going because he hates Tim Tebow

567
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 1: with a passion. And I'm not saying that I'm in

568
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,439
Speaker 1: love with Tim Tebow. I in love with Tim Tebow

569
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: because he scores fantasy points. Six starts in his NFL career,

570
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 1: five times he scored more than twenty fantasy points. The

571
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: guy is not the prettiest quarterback to watch. He throws,

572
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: he throws some passes that look like dead ducks, but

573
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 1: he scores fantasy points. And the Chiefs made Matt Moore

574
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: look like Dan Marino last week. I am going Tebow.

575
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: I I haven't been my top eight quarterbacks this week

576
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 1: for Week ten five out of six. Pretty good percentage

577
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 1: for a guy who scores that many fantasy points. He's

578
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 1: going to give you the rushing totals. The Broncos are

579
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 1: trying to move their offense into into more of a

580
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: system where Tebow is comfortable. Maybe a little collegiate. But

581
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 1: if Tebow is comfortable and he's scoring fantasy points for

582
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 1: my team, I don't care what the Broncos do. They can,

583
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: they could run the wishbone and I'll just take it.

584
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: Those those fantasy points piling up for Tebow, I play

585
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: him well. If the Chiefs made Matt more look like

586
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: Dan Marino, then they made Anthony Fasano look like Jay

587
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: nova Check and Kellen Winslow. The good. Kellen Winslow, Yeah,

588
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 1: that that was ridiculous. But sticking with Tim Tebow for

589
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: a second. If if you're rolling with Tim Tebow and

590
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: your fantasy team right now, and you're ringing your hands over,

591
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: do I start this guy or not? You have to

592
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: be encouraged by one thing. Against Detroit. He was holding

593
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 1: the ball forever, fabs, he was getting sacked, and he

594
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: was very decisive against the Raiders. It was one to

595
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: three Red, I'm tucking the ball and running and I

596
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: believe you had a hundred and eighteen yards on the ground, which,

597
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: ironically enough, that is the quietest or most quiet d

598
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 1: rushing performance by a quarterback I've ever seen, because Willis

599
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: mcgahey went off. But I love that, and I love

600
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 1: that for your fantasy team. If you're starting Tebow being

601
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 1: encouraged by his decisiveness, now that's a key thing to

602
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: watch this week. Is he gonna do the same thing

603
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 1: or is he gonna hold the ball the way he

604
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 1: did against Detroit? You know, let's let's look ahead though,

605
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: all right, Tebow? I love him this week? Okay, great

606
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: matchup Week eleven, Jets bat matchup. Don't don't don't want

607
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 1: anything to do with him. That's actually a Thursday Night

608
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: game on NFL Network. Week twelve, Uh Tebow has the

609
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: privilege of going up against the San Diego Chargers. I

610
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: think I think I might roll with him in that game.

611
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: Week thirteen, Mr Tebow plays the Minnesota Vikings. I think

612
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: he's a viable starter against the Vikings. Honestly, I do. Uh.

613
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: You gotta look at the matchups. Tebow is not a

614
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: guy like Cam Newton, who is you know what, I

615
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: don't care who the heck they're playing. He proved that

616
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: against the Detroit Lions. But the matchups down the stretch,

617
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: they're not bad. They're they're definitely not bad. A couple

618
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: other starts well in that in that Thursday Night game,

619
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer. If you look at over the last few

620
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 1: years and you look at the quarterback numbers in the

621
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 1: Thursday night games, five out of six guys have been

622
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: very good. Uh. And I think Palmer he's gonna throw picks,

623
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: but he'll throw some touchdowns too. Mark Sanchez, Mark Sanchez,

624
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,479
Speaker 1: you know. And and it's funny if you listen to

625
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: UH guys on our show, they just except Jason Smith

626
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 1: because he is the ultimate Jets Homer of all Jets.

627
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 1: Homers love to kill Sanchez, but he's playing the Patriots.

628
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: They've given up an average if close to twenty Fantasy

629
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: points per game. It's on national TV, and I really

630
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: think the Jets want this game badly because they lost

631
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: to the Patriots earlier in the season. I think Sanchez

632
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: will play well if you're in a deep league, if

633
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: you are in a league where you start to core backs,

634
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: maybe Christian Ponder find your starting lineup. In his last

635
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 1: game against the Packers, he scored around sixteen Fantasy points. Uh.

636
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 1: And the Packers they can give him up. They're terrible

637
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: against the past. I mean, for a team that's undefeated

638
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: and is basically already being crowned as the champions, their

639
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: defense is lousy, especially against the past, and especially if

640
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: you're playing in the league that doesn't penalize the quarterback

641
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: for interceptions, because that's what the Packers give you. In

642
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 1: reality terms, they give you the pick six is, they

643
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,239
Speaker 1: give you the big plays, but they can give them

644
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 1: up this week. Overall, though, the a f C West quarterbacks,

645
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: you got Rivers, you got Tebow, you got Castle, You've

646
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: got Palmer. All good matchups and one more note on Sanchez.

647
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: The Patriots past defense has been at the bottom of

648
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: the league for weeks on end, and they just cut Haynesworth. Yeah,

649
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 1: they're They're thirty second league and they are giving up

650
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 1: This is no joke. They are giving up an average

651
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: of three d and fourteen yards per game passing. That's unreal.

652
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: That's net. That's after you take out the sack sack. Yeah,

653
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: and that's fifteen more yards than the next closest team, who,

654
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: by the way, are the Green Bay Packers. Right, It's unbelievable.

655
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: And uh, when are we going to get off of this?

656
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick being such a genius because his defenses have

657
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: not been good the last couple of years. Hey, I

658
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,479
Speaker 1: see uh chat out Yasinko is tweeting here. Um, clearly

659
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 1: he's not playing football, so he's got more time to

660
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 1: tweet these days. We speaking of people that have some time.

661
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: Lenny in New York has been waiting on the phone

662
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 1: very patiently with the Tebow question. Lenny, you're still hanging

663
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: out with us, Yeah, you appreciate what's going on. Um,

664
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: a lot of lineup questions. Who started Stafford Bow? Yeah? Man, listen,

665
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: I just I just spent five minutes talking about how

666
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: much I love Tim Tebow, but I'm starting Matt Stafford

667
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: over him. I definitely am the Bears defense. They looked

668
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: great on on Monday night. Sunday night, they looked fantastic.

669
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 1: But Stafford has been too good. He's had what one

670
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: bad game all year. Stafford was my preseason breakout guy.

671
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: And you know what, as much as I love me

672
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: some Tebow, Stafford's the play. Well, you're gonna be shocked

673
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: at this because you think that you think Tebow's better.

674
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: I think Tebow is a better play that Detroit Shock

675
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: Chicago game earlier in the year, when you saw saw

676
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 1: Stafford deep six the Bears. A lot of things have

677
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 1: changed since the Bears were released safety Chris Harris, They

678
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 1: bench Brandon Merryweather, they changed out their secondary job at

679
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: best is not healthy. He went for about a buck

680
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: eight in that game, and that game was in Detroit,

681
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: the friendly, comfortable confines of an indoor stadium. At Ford Field,

682
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a soldier field. It's not gonna

683
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: be as easy to throw the ball. I think Matt

684
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,479
Speaker 1: Stafford has a tougher game, and even if he has

685
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 1: a better game than Tim Tebow does passing. If Tim

686
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 1: Tebow gets you seventy five yards on the ground or

687
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 1: a touchdown, forget about it. Tebow is a better play.

688
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: You know. I'm looking at the numbers, and the Bears

689
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 1: have allowed right around seventeen fantasy points per game the quarterbacks. Hey,

690
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: I love Tebow. I go Stafford here. I don't disc

691
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: with you. I do like staff I do like t

692
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 1: boys of play. I think Stafford's the better play. It's close, though.

693
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 1: We'll get also into our white snake versus White Lion

694
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 1: argument later. Rudy Sarzo, White Snake. We gotta we gotta

695
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 1: settle that one. But Jimmy and Louisiana, it's got a

696
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 1: question as well. Jimmy, what's going on? Good? Good pal? Yeah,

697
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 1: I got a couple of line of questions. I was,

698
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 1: it's a non PPROR heavy touchdown league. And I have

699
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 1: Steven Jackson, Shawn Green, and Michael Bush as my running

700
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: back and my receivers are A J Green, Stevie Johnson,

701
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: and de Front I can only start two of each.

702
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: You know what, I think. I bench Sean Green out

703
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 1: of those three running backs. You know, he's been better

704
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 1: and it's a good matchup. I just think I just

705
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 1: really am high on Michael Bush. I just really like

706
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: him as a back. Stephen Jackson, I think you certainly

707
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: want to play him at wide receiver. Very j very interesting.

708
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 1: A J. Green's got one heck of a tough matchup

709
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: this week. If you look at the numbers that number

710
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 1: one wide receivers have put up against the Steelers, uh

711
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 1: and Ike Taylor, who was becoming one of the better

712
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,919
Speaker 1: corners in the National Football League. Since the first week

713
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: of the year, there hasn't been one opposing number one

714
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,879
Speaker 1: wide out in a standard league to score double digit

715
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 1: fantasy points against the Steelers. Uh. Stevie Johnson shut out

716
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 1: last week by Rivas, which we expected. I think, Des

717
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,800
Speaker 1: you definitely play him with Miles Austin out more targets

718
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 1: against the Bills. Yeah, let's not forget A J. Green

719
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 1: is still a rookie and Pittsburgh's past defense has given

720
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 1: up four point seven per game. That's not a lot

721
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 1: of yards. They've been at the top of the charts,

722
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: are very close to it all season. In fact, that

723
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: two teams are behind our Cleveland and Houston, who we

724
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: talked about earlier in the show. I think A j

725
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 1: Green is your sit there? Speaking of, we're gonna get

726
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 1: into some more of your sits, for example, quarterback sits

727
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,440
Speaker 1: when we come back from the break. Also, we got

728
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 1: Andrew Siciliano from Total Access joining us at the bottom

729
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: of the hour. We'll get into some wide receivers and

730
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,879
Speaker 1: of course we'll take more of your phone calls here

731
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,799
Speaker 1: on SIRIES two ten XM eighty seven it's NFL Fantasy Life.

732
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: Will join in a bit NFL Fantasy Live. Michael Fabiano,

733
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: Elliott Harrison and of course thats have Ben Roethlisberger highlight.

734
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 1: We're gonna get into him in just a second. Little

735
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:24,359
Speaker 1: bit of news here mark Ingram practicing the limited fashion. Uh.

736
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: But you know, fabs of the Saints running backs, they've

737
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: got the Falcons. Falcons run defense has actually been decent.

738
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: But is there any question that Darren Sprawls is the

739
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: best play? Nope? Uh. And you know what's funny, The

740
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: worst game that he had was the one week I

741
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 1: had him as start him in, said him as my

742
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 1: start of the week. But it happens. Uh. He's been fantastic,

743
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 1: not only in a PPR league but also in standard leagues.

744
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 1: Has been great and if you get points for return

745
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 1: yards and catches. He is probably a top ten, top

746
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: twelve running back league, and he took a punt back again.

747
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 1: He's been fantastic, fantastic, And it's funny because you look

748
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: at what he's doing and your thing can He's a

749
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,000
Speaker 1: better player than Reggie Bush because Reggie Bush had the

750
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: opportunity to do the same things and couldn't do it.

751
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 1: Would you say that Darren Sproles has been the biggest

752
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: surprise and fantasy because I think he has been. Obviously,

753
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,359
Speaker 1: Chris Johnson as a disappointment, was a surprise. I mean,

754
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 1: to me, it's Cam Newton. I to be that good

755
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: as a rookie, It's never happened before. We talked about

756
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in their first seasons. Joe Flacco, Matt Ryan Okay,

757
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: not bad, not bad, you know, Peyton Manning. I think

758
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 1: at twenty interceptions his rookie year. This is this is

759
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: unbelievable what Cam Newton's doing. He's the biggest surprise to me.

760
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 1: I would have never thought in a million years that

761
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback who didn't exactly have the prototypical game

762
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 1: in college to to fit in the NFL would be

763
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: as good as he is right now. But the funny

764
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: thing about Cam Newton, I listen, I certainly didn't prognosticate

765
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: that he was going to be this good. I thought

766
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 1: he was gonna be a little bit better fantasy player

767
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: than than you guys did on NFL Fantasy Life, just

768
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 1: because I thought that he was gonna run more, and

769
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,200
Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna be a classic case of

770
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: reality not meeting fantasy, and he was gonna be a

771
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 1: terrible reality quarterback, somewhat like Tebow, when in fact, he's

772
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: actually been a pretty decent quarterback in both reality and fantasy.

773
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: So from a reality perspective, he's been shocking. But from

774
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: a fantasy perspective, I never thought that Darren Sproles would

775
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,879
Speaker 1: be averaging more than a point per touch, and he's

776
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: got just a sick cannon of an arm o. Cam Newton. Yeah,

777
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: So I was like, Darren Sprawls Newton next year first

778
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: round pick me. Personally, I would wait. I would wait,

779
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: but I don't. I'm somewhat with you. I don't believe

780
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: in taking quarterbacks in the first round. I know Aaron

781
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 1: Rodgers certainly challenges that, as as Michael Vick, but I

782
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 1: would wait to right. It's gonna be tough. He's gonna

783
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:48,360
Speaker 1: go in the first round in a lot of drafts,

784
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: I bet, And it depends on how you're talking about

785
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: teams twelve teams. But Ben Roethlisberger, we have him or

786
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 1: you have him as a SID. He's facing the very

787
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: stout Bengals defense. Suddenly stout another fantasy surprise, reality surprise.

788
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 1: Who again I mentioned that Ben roethlisbergers really struggled against

789
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 1: the Bengals. Don't like the matchup Josh Freeman against the Texans. Uh,

790
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,839
Speaker 1: He's only sixteenth and fanacy points among quarterbacks right now,

791
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,280
Speaker 1: and the Texans have given up the fourth fewest fantacy

792
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: points to quarterbacks, So that's tough matchup. Brian Fitzpatrick. I

793
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:21,320
Speaker 1: can see him throwing for a couple of touchdowns, but

794
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: I don't think the yard is is gonna be terribly impressive.

795
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: So I bench Ryan Fitzpatrick. J Cutler, Hey, you know

796
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: what great game last week. Kudos to you, J Cutler.

797
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: I'm not playing against the Lions, who have a far

798
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: superior pass rush than the Philadelphia Eagles. I know you

799
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: love Matt Hasselbeck, but I'm benching up against the Panthers.

800
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be a lot of Chris Johnson,

801
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: maybe a little Javon Ringer. I don't see hossle Back

802
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:46,320
Speaker 1: having a big game and Sam Bradford against the Browns.

803
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: The Browns have given up the third fewest fanacy points

804
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 1: to quarterbacks. When you talk about good defenses, the Browns

805
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 1: don't come to mind. They're playing well against the past

806
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 1: this year, extremely well. Well. The Browns have actually have

807
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 1: the number one ranked past deefits. Now some of that

808
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: is a little bit of an illusion because they've been

809
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: vulnerable against the Ron Houston all over him, but hey,

810
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 1: that's the way it works in fantasy. So you know,

811
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns, I agree with you. I not a fan

812
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: of starting wide receivers against Joe Hayden, as are you.

813
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 1: Joe Hayden has been absolutely outstanding, and uh, you know

814
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: you sit here, you sit sometimes a top receiver if

815
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: he's going up against Hayden. Just like we talked about

816
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: with Ike Taylor. Yeah, listen, you've got to look inside

817
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: the numbers, and when you've got some emerging cover corners

818
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,400
Speaker 1: like Ike Taylor for example, like Joe Hayden for example,

819
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,319
Speaker 1: it's tough to play the guys that are facing them. Listen,

820
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 1: Joe Hayden has been really tremendous this year. Remember he

821
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 1: had a knee injury, a little bit banged up, but

822
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 1: number one wide receivers going up against the Browns have

823
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 1: not scored double digit Fantasy points since Week one. So

824
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: brand Lloyd is a guy that you really have to

825
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 1: be worried about this week. And the one guy who

826
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 1: did it was Michael Crabtree, which he barely got over

827
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 1: double digits because he scored a touchdown because he scored

828
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: a touchdown exactly. So uh. You know, Joe Hayden, I

829
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:03,320
Speaker 1: think is one of the best young players in football.

830
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: And I completely agree with you there, and I again,

831
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,480
Speaker 1: you have to look at your matchups and you look

832
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: at the Cleveland Browns. You don't think of a stout defense,

833
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: but when it comes to the passing game, you have

834
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 1: to pay attention to that matchup. We also have Matt

835
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 1: in Chicago who's got a question about his flex Matt,

836
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: what's going on now? Much? You pretty much hit and

837
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: listen to Fabiano complain about his teeth. Yeah, man, I

838
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 1: got a giant hole in my damn tooth and it's

839
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: not not fun. Matt, Wait a minute, man, I gotta

840
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: ask you a question before we get to your flex question.

841
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 1: If you don't mind little a little disagreement, and here

842
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 1: about what the best Rocky movie was, Can you settle

843
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: it for us please? Um let's say for the title

844
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 1: of the story goes against the Russian. Oh god, no,

845
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: it's number one. You just made Rob very happy. All right,

846
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 1: that's settled that you went against FABS on that one. Matt,

847
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 1: what's your question on the flex? All right? Well, wide

848
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: receivers this week got Julio Jones, Vincent Jackson, and Colston Going,

849
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: and my running backs, I got Freddie Jackson DeMarco Murray,

850
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 1: which is in my flex. And then uh, Dan Foster,

851
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 1: I'm wondering should I keep Murray in there because Felix

852
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 1: Jones might come back and put put Manningham in there.

853
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 1: I got manning him on my bench. Listen, do not

854
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,719
Speaker 1: touch just I don't want you to even open your laptop.

855
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 1: If that lineup is set, just keep it sealed. Don't

856
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: you dare put Mario Manningham in for DeMarco Murray. I

857
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,399
Speaker 1: don't care if a team knicks plays or doesn't play

858
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,279
Speaker 1: de Marco Murray should be rer flex. Yeah. Over the

859
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,280
Speaker 1: last three games, he's averaging over eight yards to carry,

860
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 1: and the bill has just lost Kyle Williams for the

861
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: season their nose tackles. So I love DeMarco Murray. He's

862
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,359
Speaker 1: actually my start of the week on NFL dot Com,

863
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 1: and this rookie has been phenomenal. I'll tell you, the

864
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: one thing that can keep DeMarco Murray from scoring double

865
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 1: digit fantasy points and I'm talking fifteen sixteen points is

866
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 1: Jason Garrett. If Jason Garret right, dare's to put Felix

867
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,279
Speaker 1: Jones in the game. If Felix plays for more than

868
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 1: eight touches, Elliott, I think you and I need to

869
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 1: go to Dallas and do a little occupying of Jerry

870
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 1: of the Jerry Dome, because that would be the dumbest

871
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 1: thing in the world. Like, how do you not play

872
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,720
Speaker 1: this kid as much as you can. He's a rookie,

873
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 1: he's fresh. You're not talking about a guy who you

874
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: need to worry about limiting his carries. Give him the ball.

875
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 1: That's the only way the Cowboys are gonna win. De

876
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 1: Marco Murray is fantastic. I'm all worried about you. This

877
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 1: tooth because it's it's supposed to be my job to

878
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 1: bring the reality into it. And you just mentioned a

879
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: nose tackle being out. Yeah, and I pay attention to

880
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,919
Speaker 1: those things. And then you're talking about Jason Garrett. I'm

881
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 1: I'm I'm concerned that maybe the whole of my tooth

882
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: that's going up to my brain. I mean, you're supposed

883
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 1: to be talking fantasy points. You hate Jason Garrett. Why

884
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 1: don't you just admit no, I just listen. I love

885
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: the Cowboys dearly there. They've been my my one eight

886
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:00,359
Speaker 1: team with the New York Yankees for year and years

887
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 1: and years. But I just they just frustrate the heck

888
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 1: out of me. Man, they frustrate the heck out of me.

889
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: And Garrett some of his play calling. Fah, it's hard

890
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 1: for me to disagree with. Listen, we're gonna have Andrew

891
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,439
Speaker 1: Andrew Ciciliano from Total Access coming up, and we're gonna

892
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 1: talk about some wide receivers. It's NFL Fantasy Live on
