Matt money Smith the host of NFL 20 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: Fantasy Live, and Matt money Smith does like five other things. 21 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: He just play by play for he is a working man. 22 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: He's got the radio show with Petro's Papadakas. So Matt 23 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: money Smith will be joining us uh in about twenty minutes, 24 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: and uh Fantasy Cantina makes a triumphant. The Cantina is 25 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: here to stay. I think it's here to stay. Yeah, 26 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: I think it's here to stay. By the way, so 27 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: you guys all out there, No, Fabiano just clicked on 28 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: a website he was clearly not supposed to click on 29 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: inappropriate content because you got the dreaded and wrong. I 30 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: spelled Twitter wrong and uh yeah, I got a little 31 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: pop up. So fabs a lot of news to get to. 32 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: I think v Y starting is the biggest news. Well, 33 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: the guy is thrown for what six and fifty eight 34 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: yards in the last two games, three touchdowns. Seattle is 35 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: weird though, because at home they're typically a far tougher team, 36 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: but then Rex Grossman shredded him last week. So I 37 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: think v wise a low end one, a guy that 38 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: there's some risk with because you don't know what's going 39 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: to happen. He's not a guy like an Eli Manning 40 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: who he's gonna put up good numbers weekend in a 41 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: week out. And he's not a gigantic name like a 42 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: Breeze or Rodgers. But if you do have Vic on 43 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: your team, and I don't know that he'll be back 44 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: anytime soon, I don't know that the Eagles, I mean 45 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: for fantasy owners, I hope he comes back. But why, 46 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: that's the question. That's the question. So Vince Young is 47 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: a guy who's gonna be picked up in a lot 48 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: of leagues. Um. And another guy that's probably been picked 49 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: up already, and if he hasn't been, you should definitely 50 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: go out and grab him. Is roy Hellou, who Mike 51 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: Shanahan has now twice this week confirmed as the starter. 52 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: I don't know that that means that Evan Royster will 53 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: start this week or not, because Shannahniggens is running rampant 54 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: in our nation's capital. But Hello had a heck of 55 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: a game last week, and I know there's risk, but 56 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: I play him as a flex this week. Well, let's 57 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: chat these two guys real quick before we move on 58 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: with the restaurant headlines. Started with Lulu had a hundred 59 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: and eight yards rushing at Seattle last week. The thing 60 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 1: that I like about Hulu versus other running backs, even 61 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: maybe Ryan Turane, is that he gets involved in the 62 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: passing game. He caught seven balls last week. That's thirty 63 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: eight catches on the season. And as you know, he 64 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: hasn't been in the lineup the whole time. So to 65 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: have thirty eight catches, well, he had fourteen in that 66 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: one game. Still, still he's got twenty four outside of that. 67 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: Very few starts under his belt. In fact, Halu has 68 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: only started two games, and to have that kind of production, 69 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: I think Shanahan would be an idiot not to play 70 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: him going forward and very productive. I don't know if 71 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna call Shanahan an idiot, but he does not 72 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: tend to make consistent decisions in that backfield. So remember 73 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: when Hulu is don the starter and then Roy Ryan 74 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: Turane started. So you play him, but you play him 75 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: at your own risk, basically because of the Adam Rank 76 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: likes to call them shanahanigans. Well technically I said he 77 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: would be an idiot if he didn't start him, But hello, 78 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: I like what I saw. I don't know if you 79 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: guys out there caught his leap for his touchdown against 80 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, but that was awesome. Back to Vince Young 81 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: for a second. Vince Young last week four hundred yards 82 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: passing against the Patriots. Now, granted, their secondary has been terrible, 83 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: but we were expecting Vince Young to get some of 84 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: his fantasy points scrambling out of the pocket on the ground. 85 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: He's getting it all through the air. Well, it's Andy 86 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: Reid's offense. And Andy Reid, to the disgust of fantasy 87 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: owners who have the Shaw McCoy, did he have nine 88 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: carries last week? Nine? Was it nine? La, Shawn McCoy 89 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: And actually, mean, you've gotta be kidding me, So Reid's 90 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 1: gonna throw it regardless McCoy's clearly I must start. But 91 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: every time that guy gets twenty plus carries, the Eagles win. 92 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: When he doesn't, typically they lose. And not only did 93 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: the Eagles lose, but fantasy owners lose, because how can 94 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: you get a guy that talented, arguably the best offensive 95 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: player on your team right there with Vic probably better 96 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: than Vic nine area. That's it's it's unbelievable to me, 97 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 1: and I should capture I said on v y V 98 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 1: I only had five yards rushing against the Giants. He 99 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: did have forty last week, but again it was the 100 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: four hundred yards in the touchdown where he got you 101 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: most of your fantasy points. I have Vince Young on 102 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: my bench in both leagues here at NFL Network. I'm 103 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: not gonna start him over Tony Romo versus the Cardinals. 104 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: I can't do that. I'm pretty sure right now I'm 105 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: starting him over Hassleback, though, yeah, I would start him 106 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: over Hassleback. To hassleback's sort of been hit or miss, 107 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: and it's been more miss ever since they lost Kenny 108 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: Beer for this season. Moving on to a couple of 109 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: running backs that were not expecting to see this week. 110 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: Is Adrian Peterson. So you're gonna be rolling with Toby 111 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: Gerhardt in all likelihood, and there's a report out there 112 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: that he's not playing. Darren McFadden. Uh, that one was 113 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: a killer. And I'll tell you you know what's gonna be. 114 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: It's basically like the Scrooge of fantasy football. If this happens, 115 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: If Darren McFadden comes back in like week fifteen or 116 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: week sixteen, and you're in your fantasy playoffs or in 117 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: your Championship Week and Darren McFadden comes back, and you've 118 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 1: been writing Michael Bush and he completely squashes his value 119 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: because Bush is a one. Now with McFadden in the mix, 120 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: he's a flex, and he's an inconsistent flex at that 121 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:15,679 Speaker 1: That would be like the Scrooge move in fantasy football. 122 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: He would absolutely ruin. It would be great if you 123 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: have McFadden because you get him back in your lineup, 124 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: but who's not to say that he Jackson goes more 125 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: of a committee. I think McFadden will still be more 126 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: of a featured guy. But for me, I have McFadden 127 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: in two leagues. I handcuffed them with Michael Bush. I 128 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: don't want McFadden come back to year because I don't 129 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: want the headache. So would you play both in your lineup? 130 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: Likely as a flex? I would play Michael Bush. Yes, Well, 131 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: I think you have to because Bush is gonna get 132 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: the goal line work regardless, and so what if he 133 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: gets you twenty five yards rushing but he gets a touchdown. Hey, 134 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 1: eight point five points in your flex is not that bad. 135 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: The thing about McFadden he has the ability that Bush 136 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: doesn't of hitting the home run and you throw a 137 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 1: little screen pass out to McFadden. He can turn to 138 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,479 Speaker 1: an eighty five yard game. So if he does come back, 139 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: you can't keep him out of your line up. The 140 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: problem was can't. The problem is and has always been 141 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,559 Speaker 1: injuries with him. He has more He has more talent 142 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: than more than half of the running backs in the 143 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: National Football League, far more. He can't stay healthy. This 144 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: foot injury, it didn't even seem like it was a 145 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: big deal when it initially happens, And what do we 146 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: four weeks later now and he's still not playing. So 147 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: it's been it's been one of those situations where you 148 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: drafted McFadden, you knew he was a risk reward selection 149 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: and he rewarded you early. Now he's uh, what do 150 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: we like to say, kicking you in the fantasy jumps. 151 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: He absolutely has a couple more injuries. Uh at another 152 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: running back LT uh didn't practice. I know l T 153 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: is kind of a low inflex these days, but it's 154 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: worth reporting and it and it also affects Joe McKnight's value. 155 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: And another running back we didn't practice was Willis mcgahey, 156 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: And that's a big one because mcgahey's found the fountain 157 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: of youth in Denver. He's been phenomenal, but again he's 158 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: an older back. He's one, so you have to always 159 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: be careful of him when he pops up on the 160 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: injury report. Make sure he keeps tabs on his status 161 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: throughout the weekend. Over the weekend, and maybe pick up 162 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: lance ball if mcgahey is forced to miss Thursday and 163 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: Friday's workout. When Sean's shut down done, he's done exactly right. 164 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: I think people would be shocked if they knew that 165 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: willis mcgahey through. You know, however, many games ten games 166 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: has seven and seventy five yards rushing are actually the 167 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 1: eleven games. But he's played ten games, seven hundred and 168 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: seventy five years rush. He's gonna have a thousand yard season. 169 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: Kevin Smith also didn't practice, so that's someone that I 170 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 1: would think. Maurice Morris is probably gonna start, and you 171 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: pick him up and you play him as a flex 172 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: in the deeper league, but don't expect much. Don't expect 173 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: much tough, tough matchup coming up. The Saints actually are 174 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: not terrible against the run, so Morris maybe helps you 175 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: with out of the backfield as a receiver. The problem though, 176 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: is that when he's in there, you've also going to 177 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: get a little Kilan Williams sprinkled in. So it's far 178 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 1: less of an option than Kevin Smith, who before he 179 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 1: got hurt against the packers, was tearing it up, tearing 180 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: it and he and he tore it up the week before. 181 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: So Kevin Smith is definitely somebody you want to have 182 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: in your lineup. You you talked about run dmc there 183 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: in Oakland and the conundrum you have if you handcuffed 184 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: him with Michael Bush. I'll tell you, to a lesser extent, 185 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: what if you're one of those people who you drafted 186 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 1: Miles Austin pretty high, he got hurt, you went to 187 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: the waiver wire and picked up Lauren Robinson is basically 188 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. Handcuff you're gonna have a decision to 189 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: make because Lauren Robinson, there's no way he's gonna see 190 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: the targets he's been saying. I know he's been a 191 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: big producer FABS. He's not gonna see those targets if 192 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: Austin's back in the line. Because you're not gonna sit 193 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: deaz and unfortunately most trade deadlines have passed. You can't 194 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: sell high and larn Robinson at this point, but there's 195 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: no way he continues to have this much success. I'm 196 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: not saying he can't be a three in fantasy. But 197 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: Miles Austin comes back, that's gonna put a huge dent 198 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 1: into his effectiveness and speak king of wide receivers. Victory 199 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: Cruz on the injury report didn't practice today with a 200 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: hip ailment, so we're gonna have to keep tabs on him. 201 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: Hopefully he's fine. I don't think that it's serious. And 202 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 1: you want to talk about a guy who's been one 203 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: of the top three or four pickups off the way amazing. 204 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: He's been great. He has surpassed to Keem Nicks as 205 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: the best fantasy receiver on that team and he wasn't 206 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: even drafted the mostly when your fantasy again, neither night. 207 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: I know well, I was in Jimmy Graham giveth and 208 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham taketh away. I was in one of my 209 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: leagues at an eighteen point lead, my opponent had Jimmy Graham. 210 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: I ended up losing his PPR league, and then I 211 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: had Graham in another league and one because of his help, 212 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: and he's been he's been phenomenal. He has been absolutely phenomenal. 213 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: He was a sleeper on NFL dot Com in the preseason, 214 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: and he's more than met expectations, he's exceeded them without question. 215 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: We had a discussion on NFL Fantasy Live today on 216 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: NFL Network that about Hakeem Nicks versus Victor Cruz, and 217 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: most of you guys took Cruise. I stuck with Nicks. 218 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: It's a tough one because I still just watching the 219 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: Saints game. Nicks is still the number one option at 220 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: all offense. The problem is is that Victor Cruz gets 221 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: one on one coverage all the time and until a 222 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 1: defense says, okay, we've seen enough of this, we have 223 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: to stop this guy. Then you can make the argument 224 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: that Cruizes the is the better fantasy player. He's not 225 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: the better reality player, but as long as the Keem 226 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: Nicks sees the safety over the top and Victor Cruz doesn't, 227 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: you can make the argument he's definitely the better fantasy player. 228 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: And Eli has a great rapport with him and a 229 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 1: lot of confidence in him, and that's big. And he 230 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,559 Speaker 1: gets he gets the deep balls. That's the thing with 231 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: Victor Cruz too. These aren't a bunch of five yard 232 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 1: outs and none yard ends he's catching. Can you go 233 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: a show without saying nine yard outs or none yard ends? 234 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: As the first time bubble screens, the first time I 235 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: ever said nine yard in I stop it. I changed it. 236 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: I love that man myself. That's your deal. Did we 237 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: get to all of our news headlines? I think so. 238 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: We didn't talk t J. Yates. What is there to 239 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: say about t J Yates all the other than that 240 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: he is really making it difficult for people to start 241 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 1: Honor Johnson. I I think that Owen Daniels is a 242 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: guy that's certainly owned in the majority of leagues out 243 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: there and not putting up good numbers and not putting 244 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: up good numbers. If you're a non Daniels owner, are 245 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: you absolutely sitting him this week against the Falcons? The 246 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: Falcons have a good defense when it comes to stopping 247 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: tight ends. I'd rather have Brent Selleck this week. Oh god, 248 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: not even comparison. I would sit Owen Daniels. The other 249 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: problem is, you know, never know when Joel Greeson is 250 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: gonna catch a testown and cannibalize your production from Daniels. 251 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,719 Speaker 1: So with you, it's if you've got Owen Daniels out there, 252 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: go to the waiver wire. See see who's sitting there. 253 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,199 Speaker 1: If Brent Selleck is somehow available, absolutely pounced all over him. 254 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: But Owen Daniels. But what about what about Honor Johnson. 255 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: Honor Johnson bad fantasy game last week? He's got Yates, 256 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: who's a rookie throwing him. I can't sit him. That's 257 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: why I threw Owen Daniels. Ever, because I could sit 258 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: Owen Daniels. Here's the guys I would play ahead of 259 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: Honor Johnson this week that aren't no brainers, right, Victor Cruz. 260 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: I mean Brandon Marshall, Jordy Nelson, both the Cowboys wide receivers, 261 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: Vincent Jackson, Colston, Brandon Lloyd, Antonio Brown, guys like that. 262 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: I would play over a J. De Sean Jackson. I'd 263 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: probably play him over a J because of the fact 264 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 1: that maclan is not gonna play. I Duyne Bows close 265 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: Dwayne Bows, but would wouldn't is the quarterback I think 266 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: about it otherwise, I go with a J. But Tyler 267 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: Palco he's terrible. I think t J. Yates might be 268 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: actually better than him. Tyler Palco has got the weirdest 269 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: noodle arm throwing motion I've ever seen. It looks like 270 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 1: he's trying to throw a curveball. You know, he sure 271 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 1: he speaks highly of your work. Sure, I'm sure he doesn't. 272 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 1: But that situation in Houston, when you have held on 273 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: Andre Johnson this long, it's been several weeks to have 274 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: him lose shob Leiner comes in there. Okay, downgrade, Now 275 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 1: you go from Liner to Yates. And I'm not saying 276 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 1: t J. Yates can't be a good quarterback. We've seen 277 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: plenty of rookie quarterbacks putting up really good numbers this year. 278 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: But the downgrade from Shop to Yates, it's kind of 279 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: like the downgrade from Um Megan Fox two Rosie Kathy 280 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: Bates or if you're a wrestling fan, um, do you 281 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 1: ever see about Schmidt? No, Kathy Bates, the whole hot 282 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: tub scene that was very The fact that you watched 283 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: Kathy Bates and the hot tub scene is really disturbing, 284 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: very disturbing, very disturbing. Speaking of t J. Yates, Uh, 285 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: he went to North Carolina and there's been a caller 286 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: who's been waiting on the line, is waiting last hour. 287 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: Brandon from North Carolina has a lineup question. We want 288 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: to take Brandon out. Brandon, thanks so much for your patients. 289 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: What's going on? Man? Not a hope? A question here 290 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: for you guys. Um, what I've been looking at this 291 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: week has been throwing it up between Stephen Jackson and 292 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: Laurent Robinson. What's the possibility of Miles Alston coming back? 293 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: I kind of didn't know what to really do there. 294 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: If Lauren Robinson, uh, I have to start him over Jackson, 295 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: I'd have to. I mean, the four niniers give up nothing, 296 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: nothing thing. Robinson has seven touchdowns in his last five games. 297 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: Miles Austin wasn't able to practice today, and honestly, even 298 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: if he's active, I don't know how how much action 299 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: he's gonna see, how many snaps e'll see, he could 300 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: potentially be very limited if he's active at all. Listen, 301 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: Stephen Jackson has scored what a combined fourteen Fantasy points 302 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: over the last two games, and Leron Robinson is scoring 303 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: touchsounds like they're going out of style. I'm rolling with 304 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: I'm rolling with l R in this one. I gotta 305 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: agree with you, Lauren Robinson. Look until it's proven, otherwise 306 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: you have to play him and you don't know what's 307 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: gonna happen with Miles Austin, and you know, hamstring injuries, 308 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: they're just they're like plantar fasciitists. There anytime to sneak 309 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: your team name in there. Again, No, I didn't say 310 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: plantar smashy itis, but plant our fasciitists and hamstring injuries 311 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: are the worst because you never know when a guy 312 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: is gonna come back full speed. He always hate. You 313 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: almost want the Cowboys to be so cautious that they 314 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: sit Austin down longer, don't you because you don't want 315 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: him to They don't need to rush him back. They don't. 316 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: That offense has been fine, they're they've won four straight 317 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: and Romo has a great rapport with leron Robinson and uh, 318 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: it's sort of like the same situation with Darren McFadden. 319 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: If you have Michael Bush and you've been riding them 320 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: for the last four weeks, you want McFadden to stay 321 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: out as long as possible. Well, if Robinson's on your team, 322 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: you want the same thing with Miles Austin. Well, and 323 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: from a reality standpoint, you're the Raiders, You're in first place, 324 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: you're trying to win the a f C West. You're 325 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: doing fine with Michael Bush in the lineup. What's the 326 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 1: point of rushing back McFadden. If you give him an 327 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: extra week, then you're gonna have a true, healthy, two 328 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: headed monster in the playoffs, a better running back situation 329 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: than pretty much any team in the league has. So 330 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: you hate to see the Cowboys do that with Austin. 331 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: We do have Matt money Smith coming up after the break. 332 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk. Got an interesting conversation on the doc today. 333 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: Christmas movies that Michael Fabiano swears aren't really Christmas movies. 334 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: But die Hard is not a Christmas movie, and neither 335 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: is Rocky for and neither is Lethal Weapon. They're not 336 00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: Christmas movies. Their movies that were set during Christmas time. 337 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: But that makes them It does not, It does not. 338 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: We'll get to that after the break again.

Sidney Rice has made of paper. You know, 389 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: this is the thing that you worry about with him injuries. 390 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: And again I said this in the preseason. When a 391 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: wide receiver signs with the Seahawks, he goes there to die, 392 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,959 Speaker 1: at least from his statistical perspective. Ant Cindy Rice has 393 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: gone there too. Well. Ben Obomano, now all of a 394 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 1: sudden has some value in deep leagues. You pick him 395 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: up because he's gonna be starting great. He can catch 396 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: dirt balls from Tavaris Jackson, that's fantastic and score two 397 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: point three fantasy points. We have our man. We have 398 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: Matt Money Smith on the line, our host on NFL 399 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: Fantasy Live on NFL dot Com, NFL Network. Money calls 400 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: play by player for the Stanford Cardinal. He fills in 401 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 1: for Jim Rome. He's a big part of his church group. Uh. 402 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 1: He's a father of three girls, and he does not 403 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: like Tim Tebow and he has a radio flyer Red 404 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: Wagon that I've been using a lot and probably the 405 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 1: best voice in radio, absolutely Matt money Smith. Die Hard 406 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 1: Christmas movie or No, No, you guys are gonna hang 407 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 1: up on me doing you gotta help? No, I'm not 408 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: going to gang up on your fabs. It's not a 409 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,360 Speaker 1: Christmas movie. Well, here's what I'll say. Does it? And look, 410 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: you know you mentioned the church going part of my 411 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: persona Elliott, Thank you for that. Um, it doesn't put 412 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: you in the Christmas spirit. It comes to movies like 413 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: die Hard. I think of Christmas time blockbusters that it is. 414 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 1: You know, you have your summer blockbuster and then the 415 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: other part of the movie release season it's Christmas. And 416 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: it's funny because all of these major releases end up 417 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: having a slight Christmas theme to them, you know, as 418 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 1: a backdrop or whether it's music playing throughout. So you know, 419 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: I think there's I think there's a connection there, whether 420 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 1: it's a strong one like Rootolf the Red Nose Reindeer, 421 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: or or It's a Wonderful Life. Yeah, not quite like that. 422 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: You know. If you were to say, hey, what's your 423 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: favorite Christmas movie? I don't think anyone's saying die Hard, 424 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: but you can kind of put it into a category 425 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: of movies that take place during Christmas and are released 426 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: at Christmas and therefore kind of make you think that. 427 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,679 Speaker 1: Not that does not make me think of Christmas at all. 428 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: It just makes me think of explosions and you know, uh, 429 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 1: you don't Christmas party at all. Fab that's not Christmas movie. 430 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,479 Speaker 1: One of the great scenes in that movie is Booby 431 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: Hans Boy, the negotiations horribly wrong. Our producer Necktime Milner 432 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 1: has a strong opinion on this money. I know that 433 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 1: we talked about this in our earlier television tape you 434 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: of NFL Fantasy Live. But I have to set the 435 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: records straight. A Christmas movie should be a movie where 436 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: the family can gather around and drink eggnog and open 437 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 1: presence with grandparents, parents, little children. You cannot watch die 438 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: Hard with little children? Correct? Are you a parent? I'm 439 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: not yet? Well, all right, then you'll have to drop that. 440 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: I think, so at what at what? I mean, it's 441 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: a whole other conversation. But at what age would you 442 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: start It's a rhetorical question, But at what age would 443 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: you start letting your kids watch die Hard? Question? I'll 444 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: answer it. But what's the answer. The answer is, whenever 445 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,959 Speaker 1: you're comfortable with on screen violence, Well, would you how 446 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: and how old? How old would you allow your kids 447 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: to be to watch the Frosty the Snowman or Rudolph 448 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: the Red Nose Reindeer answers as soon as they can 449 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: walk or watch TV or anything. Diehard is not a 450 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: Christmas movie? Would I would disagree. I think there's a 451 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 1: connection that can be made. Well, guys, to to bring 452 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 1: this back to fantasy. The greatest, the greatest Christmas movie 453 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: quote of all time is Chevy Chase introducing Randy Quaid, 454 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: my cousin whose heart is bigger than his brain. I 455 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: appreciate that, Clark, I appreciate that Clark. Sydney Rice out 456 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: for the season. Mean anything to you, money, That's what it's. 457 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 1: It's exactly what fab said. I mean, when is the 458 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,959 Speaker 1: last time you felt good about drafting a wide receiver 459 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: in Seattle? Bobby Ingram? I mean, I'm just I was 460 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 1: gonna go back to Steve Larger. But I'm just trying 461 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: to think if if Bobby Ingram had a house in 462 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: yard season and put up respectable fantasy neverbs, I think 463 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: he did it. Just doesn't happen. I don't know what 464 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: it is about that city. You know, you had decent 465 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 1: quarterbacks there, like Matt Hasselback. But are you ever excited 466 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: about receivers in that in the two oh six? No, 467 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: and you're definitely again Ben Obamaman, who now has some value. 468 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin. I think maybe he's probably the one now 469 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 1: in that offense. Money. Uh, He's going to be inconsistent regardless, 470 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: but I think he's worth picking up if you need 471 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: wide receivers because of opportunity. Uh, if if nothing else money, 472 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: Let's talk about your beloved Chicago Bears and the value 473 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: of Caleb Haney. Now, Caleb Hanny is not going to 474 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 1: strike fear into the hearts of defensive coordinators, but he 475 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: did score a pretty good amount of Fantasy points last 476 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 1: week despite the fact that he threw what three interceptions. 477 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: They're playing the Chiefs this week. Is Caleb Haney someone 478 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: that if you needed a quarterback desperately or started two quarterbacks, 479 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: that you would pick up and play this weekend? I 480 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 1: would with Kansas City. The one thing I would combat, though, 481 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 1: is you know Mike Martz, the mad genius. I he 482 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: went into that game to prove that he could win 483 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: a contest with Caleb Haney. It was a bad game plan. 484 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: You know, Marian Barber was gashing the Raiders for nearly 485 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: seven yards a carry. Matt Forte was ripping them off 486 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: at five yards per carry. So by no means were 487 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: they slowing down the bear running game. But they ran 488 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: the ball two times, you know on Caleb Haney through 489 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: a thirty seven. I mean it's second and one on 490 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: the Raiders seven. And that that interception one of the 491 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: three that's returned all the way to the Oakland twelve. Uh. 492 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you want to see a 493 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: remarkable play, look at Lance Lewis on that play offensive 494 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: lineman the chase bet. I mean, that is a remarkable 495 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: play to preparable call on the horse caller tackle. Absolutely, 496 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: But that that's that's Mike Marts And what will happen 497 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: the one and the reason I bring it up, Fabs 498 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: is because the one thing that will happen is Mars 499 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 1: Is gonna get put into check and love He's gonna say, hey, look, 500 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 1: you know Heiney did great. Yeah, he made a couple 501 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: of mistakes that that that third interceptions on you March, 502 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: it was a stupid call that tight end screen, and 503 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: they're going to run the ball against Kansas City, so 504 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: I think you'll see those numbers come down. But look 505 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 1: Caleb Haney, and this is your favorite thing, Fats. He 506 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 1: can get you rushing yards. He likes to use his legs. 507 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: I mean he had fifty rushing yards in that game 508 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: against Oakland. That is a boatload for a quarterback in fantasy. Uh. 509 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: Willis mcgahey did not miss practice because of an ankle. 510 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: It was because of an illness we just found out. 511 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: So he should be fine this week. But sticking with 512 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: the Broncos and money. You and I have been fighting 513 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: about this all year, and I'm feeling a little frisky 514 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 1: right now. I want to have a little Tim Tebow conversation. 515 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: I want to listen. Are you are you sold on 516 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: him yet? I mean maybe not as an NFL quarterback, 517 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: but he has four and one or five and one, 518 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 1: But as a fantasy quarterback are you sold on him yet? 519 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: Are you just all out? I can't stand Tim Tebow 520 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: and I'll never play him. I don't care what he does. 521 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: I please understand. I love the story of Tim Tebow. 522 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: I think it's fascinating. I think compelling because no one 523 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 1: can figure it out. You know, It's just it doesn't 524 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 1: it doesn't make sense when you look at his quarterback 525 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: rating for the first three quarters. There's production for the 526 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: first three quarters, and then what he ends up with, 527 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: you know, in a five and one record, and you know, 528 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: fantasy numbers that are averaging close to nineteen points per game. 529 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: You know, you just have to close your eyes and 530 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 1: go into it with you know, I mean, gosh, I 531 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 1: hate to do this, and this probably isn't gonna go 532 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: over well, but who cares. It's it's like religion, you know. 533 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 1: It's it's like religion, and that the idea of faith 534 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: versus logic. You either close your eyes and you accept it, 535 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: or you dissect you know, numbers and trends and you say, 536 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: this end results not possible. I can't bring myself to 537 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: this conclusion by being presented with the information I'm presented with. 538 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: So that's what Tebow is. You go in with blind 539 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: faith and say, hey, the Bears defense is good, they 540 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: play quarterbacks. Well, uh, you don't run the ball well 541 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: against them. But I'm going to play Tim Tebow in 542 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: the first round of my host season, you know, And 543 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: and damned if I win, Damned if I don't. That's 544 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna I can't do that. I just I 545 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 1: can't process the information given to me and say Tim 546 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: Tebow is a viable option for me in the postseason. Well, Money, 547 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 1: do you have a producer nipping at your heels? I 548 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: do you do? Yeah, because we gotta take a break 549 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: and you hang out on with us for a couple 550 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: more minutes. Absolutely, when you say producer, I thought you 551 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: were talking about necktie behind the glass. They're screaming at 552 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: me to stop talking. Well that that was happening to 553 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: We're all mentally saying that. But you know I do 554 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: that to you every show. I just you're not here 555 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: for me to punch in the ribs to get you 556 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: to stop and hang out. Awesome.

Come on, but let's get to the 576 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: let's get to the important stuff. Your color analysts on 577 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: the on the broadcaster is Tony Hill. Tony Hill and 578 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: Curtis Conway. Can't beat those guys. Curtis Conway is super nice. 579 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: Actually decided to wear number eighty because he was such 580 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: a big fan of Tony Hill. And as a kid, 581 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: you know that grew up rooting for the Bears. It 582 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: was pretty cool for me to be able to work 583 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: with Curtis and then to be able to do the 584 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: first game after having done him with Tony. Uh to 585 00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:59,479 Speaker 1: have Curtis come to the lobby and be like, hey man, 586 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: I'm freaking out about to meet Tony Hill. You don't understand. 587 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: This is unreal. It was just kind of funny to 588 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: hear a guy that was a thousand yard receiver in 589 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: the in the NFL like starting to get a little 590 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: nervous that he was about to, you know, meet his hero. 591 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: Dial lady. I was his numbers sake from the from 592 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I was just about say. Curtis Conway a 593 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: tremendous fantasy value in the mid nineties. He and Eric 594 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: Kramer believe in ninety five both had killer seasons. Then 595 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: Marcus Robinson was his stud there that Jeff Graham had 596 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 1: a thousand yards as well, one of the one of 597 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: very few Bears receivers to ever have a thousand yards, 598 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: not very many of them. There may never be but 599 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: five or six total. Ever. On Fantasy Live today, we 600 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: we know we gave out some fantasy tips for teams 601 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: that are gonna be in the playoffs. If you're a 602 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: fantasy owner out there that's gonna be in a playoff 603 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: or you're fighting for playoffs money. Can you share a 604 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: little bit of your economics fantasy tips. Yeah, I went 605 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: to economics and talked to sun costs versus opportunity costs. 606 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: And if you follow the world a vicon you kind 607 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: of know what that is. And and the idea is 608 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: that you you sink so much in and and for 609 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: poker players, it's pot committed and it's the same idea 610 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 1: is you know you put so much into something, and 611 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: for fantasy that means you've drafted them high that you 612 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: just continue to play them over and over and over 613 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: despite their lack of production. Well, as long as you're 614 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: writing them weekend in week out, they're costing you points. 615 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: And the opposite of sunk costs opportunity costs, which is 616 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: the cost you've given up by continuing to follow that 617 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: sunk costs. So guys on the waiver wire that perhaps 618 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: you've ignored dudes on your bench that are out producing 619 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: your Chris Johnson's, you know your Sydney Rice is whoever 620 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: it might be, because you feel as though you have 621 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: to play them because they were drafting so high. Well, 622 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 1: you know what the playoffs are here, and it's it's enough, 623 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 1: you know, twelve weeks, thirteen weeks enough. You know what's what, 624 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: who's who? And you can't continue to play guys just 625 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: because you drafted them in the first or second round. 626 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: If Steven Jackson isn't working, move on play Willis mcgahey, 627 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: you know, I mean they play Reggie Bush whatever might 628 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: be though that that's your move, and you just you know, 629 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: it's so imperative that you do it in the postseason 630 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: because you know you can't afford any slip up. You know, 631 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: in Michael, we've talked about this before. Playoffs is so 632 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: much luck, so you have to try to eliminate as 633 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 1: much of the uncertainty as possible. All right, money, So 634 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: let's talk about Andre Johnson then, uh, Andre Johnson sitting 635 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: in this conversation. Is it a guy that you don't 636 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: play this week? I don't you know. We were asked 637 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: that on the on the show today and the mc franklin, 638 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: I do not play Andre Johnson this week. There's too much, 639 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: there's too many unknowns. A hamstring injury, second game back, 640 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback. You know, team that's great against the run, 641 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: which means they're going to be able to pin their 642 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: ears back and attack Yates and blitz the heck out 643 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: of him. I just I don't see Andre Johnson being 644 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: able to do what he's capable of doing based on 645 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: the parameters that the Falcons defense presents. Okay, so going 646 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: we're going to the other side of that coin. So 647 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: Andre Johnson was a high pick, obviously a fantasy stud. 648 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: So the idea of stockpiling and Andy Dalton on your 649 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: bench this week while he plays the Steelers and not 650 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: playing him but keeping him for your fantasy playoffs when 651 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: he faces the Cardinals and Rams, how do you feel 652 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: about that? Love it? It's a great idea, you know, 653 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a great matchup. Look, we've seen what 654 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: what have we seen Andy Dalton do? I mean? He's 655 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: putting up you know, his numbers are are comparable to 656 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers. You know, he that that's the category he's 657 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: in and Philips had a bad year. But that's just 658 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: kind of put in perspective that that's that's a perfect example. Actually, Elliott, 659 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: So you drafted Philip Rivers in the third round or 660 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: the fourth round. Andy Dalton you picked up off the 661 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: waver for wire. You know, well, are you really going 662 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: to play Philip Rivers, you know, versus let's just say 663 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: this week the Jaguars because he's Philip Rivers. Bad idea, 664 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: you know, fourth past you look what quarterbacks have done 665 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: against the Jacks. Nothing, you know, and yet Andy Dalton, 666 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: this is a bad week. But like you said in 667 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 1: your semi final, in your super Bowl, you've got the 668 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: Rams in Arizona. That is a great play and a 669 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: much better play than Philip Rivers would present you money. 670 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Matt Moore. Now he doesn't get a 671 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 1: lot of love and fantasy circles, but this as a 672 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: kid who's actually put up some numbers since taking over 673 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: as a starting quarterback for the Miami Dolphins. And if 674 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: you look at his schedule over the next several weeks, 675 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: including the fantasy postseason, he has got some tasty matchups. 676 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: Matt More someone you have enough confidence into play right 677 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: now when everything's on the line. Well, there's a real 678 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: world application here and that Yeah, he's my starter. You know, 679 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: I had Matt shop and after the bye week I 680 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: did not take I didn't pick up a quarterback. Um 681 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: and Matt Moore, you know, when he went down, I 682 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: went to the waiver wire. First guy file was Matt Moore, 683 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: and I've been riding him ever since. And and look 684 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: I'm two and one with him as my starter, and 685 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: and looking at the matchups Oakland this week, Philly, and 686 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 1: then you know, in the postseason at Buffalo and New England, 687 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 1: I'm totally comfortable I will ride Matt more out. I am. 688 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: You know, I tried to make a trade for Matt Stafford. 689 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: I tried to, you know, move I have an extra 690 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: running back, and it just didn't work out. And at 691 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: this point, because of the schedule, and he's proven enough 692 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: to me since he took that job, you know, and 693 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: put up some pretty good numbers against the Giants, that 694 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: I'm comfortable. I'm good with that matchup. So Fabs and 695 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 1: I were talking before you came on about the run 696 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 1: DMC situation. Darren McFadden. We don't know when he's going 697 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 1: to be back, but let's just play with it for 698 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,399 Speaker 1: a second. Let's pretend he's back when they play Green 699 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: Bay December eleven. Uh, if you've got Michael Bush, you 700 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: handcuffed McFadden, do you play both of them that week? Oh? Man, 701 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: that's a good question. My only fear there, well, a 702 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: lot of its weather permitting, you know how, but see 703 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: Carson's comfortable in the cold. I mean he played in 704 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: Cincinnati and and Hugh, you know, he was shown that 705 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: he's totally comfortable slinging the ball around. That's a tough one. 706 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: Do you end up playing them both against Green Bay? 707 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 1: I would say no. I would say no just because 708 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: I think Green You know, Green Bay's defense is underrated. 709 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:49,959 Speaker 1: I know that they're that they're one of the lower 710 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: rated teams in fantasy, but I just I get the 711 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: sense that that's a team you can fall behind by 712 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: two or three touchdowns and next thing you know, the 713 00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: Raiders are trying to win a division and they're trying 714 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: to get back into that game, and that means they're 715 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: gonna have to sling the ball around. That'd be my 716 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: one fear of playing them both. There's too much uncertainty there. 717 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 1: I certainly would play one or the other. Money. What's 718 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: the cliff in your opinion on Stephen Jackson? Which running 719 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: backs would you start clearly over him this week playing 720 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 1: the Niners? And which running backs would you say? You know, 721 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stick with Jackson and enroll the dice. Wow, 722 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: that's well, you know, I mean, just going back to 723 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: our conversation, you know from today, from the from the 724 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: TV show, I'd start both Panthers, you know, against Tampa. Obviously, 725 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: i'd start La Garrett Blunt. I certainly wouldn't go Ventaid 726 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: over him, just because of how good that Atlanta run 727 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: defense is. Um, I think Beanie Wells I would I 728 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,839 Speaker 1: would consider starting. Um, Beanie Wells is a tough play. 729 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: I think I'd rather play him than Jackson though. That's 730 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 1: I mean, that's why I think that's kind of when 731 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,320 Speaker 1: you talk about the cliff. I'm I'm more comfortable with 732 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: Beanie against that is, then I am Stephen Jackson against him. 733 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: I mean it goes back to last week. What did 734 00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 1: what did ray Rice get you? Yeah, and I were 735 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: talking about I think it was like, I think it 736 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: was eight or nine points. And standard remember we have 737 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 1: that conversation. You said, I have to how do I 738 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: not play him? It's ray Rice and and and I 739 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: totally understood that, but I said, I just I can't 740 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: play anyone against San Francisco, let alone Steven Jackson. Yeah. 741 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 1: I mean if I have a running back, you know, 742 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: and I don't know what their schedule looks like. I 743 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: can't remember. I think they're like a f C West. 744 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 1: I think they have Pittsburgh though in there somewhere. Um, 745 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: you know what, here we go. I just pulled it up. 746 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, Pittsburgh and Seattle semi final and super Bowl 747 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,320 Speaker 1: in your fantasy league. You know what a what a 748 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 1: mess you have Marshawn Lynch and you're in the super 749 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 1: Bowl and you feel great about him, and he's got 750 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 1: to go Lynches, Yeah Lynch. Well, Lynch has got too 751 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: tough matchups the fantasy postseason. That's why I want McFadden 752 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 1: to come back with money. We're gonna have to break 753 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 1: here and a second before I let you go better. 754 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: Christmas movie that's not really a Christmas movie. Die Hard 755 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,240 Speaker 1: to Rocky four. Rocky four is not a Christmas movie. 756 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 1: It ties. It's a movie about America. I guess the USSR. 757 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: It's a movie about Rocky Balbo with the Christmas. A 758 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: little Italian guy beating up the big Russian. Being free 759 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: in a capitalistic society isn't the best Christmas gift? Russia? 760 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: You got it? That's a Christmas movie to meet that? 761 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: Oh you guys are I would go die Hard because 762 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 1: I can no you know what, No, I'll go Rocky four. 763 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 1: I think if both movies are on, you know, one 764 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 1: channel below the other, I'm probably watching Rocky four. I 765 00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 1: had to die Hard. I would agree with that, but 766 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 1: I would also say that neither one of them is 767 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: a Christmas movie.

Somebody grabbed him on you. One 816 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: of the weaker teams grabbed him at least, so it's 817 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 1: not going to be a playoff team. But are we 818 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:46,399 Speaker 1: talking PPR non PBR standard scoring? You know what help 819 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 1: I'd still play Percy he did have a touchdown, I'd 820 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: still play Percy. I'd probably play Rod Johnson too. I'd 821 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: roll the dice with him. I mean, Craps, she's got 822 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: a really good matchup. Julio did nothing last week and 823 00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,799 Speaker 1: has a bad match up on paper. Austin. I don't 824 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:01,399 Speaker 1: know the he's gonna be back this week. He missed 825 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 1: practiced on Wednesday, so decisions sort of to be determined. 826 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 1: But if I had to pick two of these, I'm 827 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 1: going on Rack Johnson and Percy. Well. One thing that 828 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 1: you can sort of bank on is Percy Harving caught 829 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 1: a deep ball for a touchdown last week from Ponder. 830 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 1: It was a fourth and thirteen. Plague was at an anomaly. 831 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: I guess that remains to be seen, But given your situation, 832 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 1: I agree with FABS. I think Andre Johnson. The one 833 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: thing that scares me about Percy this week is the 834 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 1: fact that Champ is just shutting down wide receivers. But 835 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: those are the two guys that go with That's a 836 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: tough one. One that is a very tough one. C J. 837 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 1: Spiller and a non PPR c J. Spiller. I would 838 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 1: not bank my fantasy team's hopes on c J. Spiller 839 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 1: under any circumstances. Craig and Louisiana has a question on 840 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:51,839 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and tight ends. Craigs, what's going on? Hey, how's 841 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 1: it going guys? Question? On Thursday night? I got Vince 842 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: Young or Eli Manning and then also sell It or 843 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 1: Davis at tight end, which Davis Fred Davis I'm assuming. 844 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:10,080 Speaker 1: I'm assuming vern Eli Manning is a no brainer going 845 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:11,840 Speaker 1: up against the Packers. They've given up a pile of 846 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 1: fantasy points the quarterbacks this season and Eli's six and 847 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: fantasy points and he's been phenomenal for most of the season. 848 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,880 Speaker 1: And at tight ends, I'm going Selk. And this is 849 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,400 Speaker 1: why the Rams defense is not known as this great 850 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,399 Speaker 1: prolific unit, but they have put the shackles on tight ends. 851 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,760 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham had of his one of his worst games 852 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: against the Rams. Jeremy Jamchael Finley had one of his 853 00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: worst games against the Rams. Selik has been getting a 854 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 1: lot of targets from Vince Young, and the Seahawks are 855 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 1: not great at bottling up the tight end. I'm going Eli, 856 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:47,239 Speaker 1: and I'm going Sellek. Well, I think in Selek's case, 857 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 1: he's already matches production from last year in catches and 858 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,240 Speaker 1: he's been great over the last month. With Vernon Davis, 859 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 1: my issue is a little different than yours. It's not 860 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 1: so much the Rams defense as it is the forty 861 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,800 Speaker 1: owners offense. Number one. You know they're gonna run the football. 862 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 1: You saw it to Marco Murray did against that Rams 863 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,840 Speaker 1: defensive front. Marshawn Lynchon and Beanie Wells went for what 864 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: against that Rams front? Why would they throw? To Vernon Davis, 865 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,240 Speaker 1: You're gonna run, run, run, Not to mention past protection 866 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,240 Speaker 1: was a huge issue on Thursday Night Football against the Ravens. 867 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 1: They could not protect Alex Smith to save their life. 868 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: I don't think any of that plays into Vernon Davis's favor. 869 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:25,919 Speaker 1: I would also start Brent Selleck. Uh. Speaking of Brent cellec, 870 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:27,840 Speaker 1: have you been surprised? I mean, because he was a 871 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 1: fantasy waste land He went from first he went from 872 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:35,240 Speaker 1: an elite tight end to a waiver wire basically bust 873 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: last season and now he's a talented guy. But Michael 874 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 1: Vick didn't look his way last year, hardly at all. 875 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: This year, Vick started to look in his direction and 876 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: then he got hurt. Now, Vince Young, he likes to 877 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: throw the football clearly to the tight end, more of 878 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,440 Speaker 1: a checkdown guy than Michael Vick is. So I'm not 879 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 1: surprised that sellek s beend this good. And remember Jeremy 880 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 1: Macklin's out of the picture too, so they're down their 881 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 1: best receiver. It's amazing to say start Brent Selleck over 882 00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 1: Vernon Davis, but I don't see any other way. You know, 883 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: Brent Cell seventies six catches in two thousand nine. He 884 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 1: was one of the best tight ends in the league. 885 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 1: But that has nothing to do with the fact that 886 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 1: we've got to do the Fantasy CANTEENA coming up after 887 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 1: the break.
