Speaker 1: Wow. Wow, Hey everybody, It's Wednesday, October ninth, twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Show. It's me your man, MG,
Speaker 1: Marcus Grant, joined by Michael F. Florio and Lakwan Jones.
Speaker 1: We could probably all use a nap here. We are
Speaker 1: staring down the barrel of week six. We get ready
Speaker 1: for pretty much hitting me one third mark of the
Speaker 1: season and the Lakwan. So far, how has your fantasy
Speaker 1: season gone?
Speaker 2: I think my shirt kind of explains it for just everything.
Speaker 2: Just I'm slowly backing away from this season because it's
Speaker 2: getting spooky out here, man, Like the injuries just need
Speaker 2: to stop that. Like I'm trying to catch up, but
Speaker 2: I just.
Speaker 3: Can't hit it. It just is what it is. Any
Speaker 3: better for you?
Speaker 4: Uh No, this is one of my worst seasons in
Speaker 4: a while, I would say, but I'm it's so bad
Speaker 4: that like I'm looking at teams where I'm sitting at
Speaker 4: like around five hundred, and I'm like, all right, well
Speaker 4: we survived, like not having a j Brown, Like maybe
Speaker 4: now we could go on a run.
Speaker 3: Like It's that it's been a dumpster fire for me
Speaker 3: so far.
Speaker 1: If I've got you know, two wins, then I'm feeling
Speaker 1: pretty good about that team.
Speaker 3: Otherwise, you know, I'm.
Speaker 1: Just I'm trying not to go fully defeated in a
Speaker 1: couple of leagues. I think I'm gonna be okay there. Regard,
Speaker 1: we have a plan to talk about. We will dive
Speaker 1: through the Week six Slate also give you some fantasy
Speaker 1: hot takes for the week, but let's start with a
Speaker 1: couple of fantasy headlines. In New Orleans, Derek Carr expected
Speaker 1: to miss multiple weeks with an oblique injury. He suffered
Speaker 1: that on Monday against the Kansas City Chiefs. So Florio
Speaker 1: how much now? Not knowing exactly who the quarterback's gonna be.
Speaker 1: Will it be Jake Hayner, will it be Spencer Rattler,
Speaker 1: We're not sure yet. How much do we downgrade guys
Speaker 1: like Krystal Lave, Rashichah, et cetera.
Speaker 4: The timing of this is awful because it is a
Speaker 4: really good matchup.
Speaker 3: Against the Bucks.
Speaker 4: I think that matchup alone keeps Chris Olave in play
Speaker 4: for a lot of people because you would anticipate that
Speaker 4: he still gets enough volume.
Speaker 1: Although he has not.
Speaker 4: Really up to the lofty expectations that we had for him,
Speaker 4: or some people had for him coming into the season,
Speaker 4: like Rashid, Shaheed is a really fun player. He's someone
Speaker 4: that when Derek Carr is healthy, I think you can start.
Speaker 1: But with a backup quarterback, I would play.
Speaker 4: It safe this week and get away from him. We
Speaker 4: already know Shahid is very boom or bust. He's relying
Speaker 4: on big plays, and without Derek Carr, you have to
Speaker 4: at least imagine that those big play opportunities are going
Speaker 4: to decrease. So I think you could probably still start
Speaker 4: a Lave and Kamara and that would be it for me.
Speaker 3: With the Saints.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hopefully, you know, whoever the backup quarterback is, whoever
Speaker 1: gets in there, they will at least get some targets
Speaker 1: to Olave. But you're right, Shaheed being such a big
Speaker 1: play threat makes it really hard to imagine they're gonna
Speaker 1: push downfield and get him significantly involved. Meanwhile, in New England,
Speaker 1: the Patriots say they plan to start Drake May over
Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett this week against the Houston Texans. LaQuan I
Speaker 1: don't think anybody's rushing out there to start Drake May,
Speaker 1: but Jalen Polpe was starting to get a lot of love,
Speaker 1: a lot of chatter on Fantasy Twitter. Are you ready
Speaker 1: to start Jalen Polk with Drake May or are you
Speaker 1: gonna take a wait and see.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the wait and see approach because I
Speaker 2: think that's why we drafted any Patriots player on this offense,
Speaker 2: just based on knowing that what Jacoby Brissett is and
Speaker 2: what he can honestly bring out of some of these
Speaker 2: players on offense. But with Drake May, it's a new
Speaker 2: fresh sign of just like, all right, we're gonna get
Speaker 2: a peek at the potential future of this Patriots offense
Speaker 2: with Drake May, with their investment. But more so, I
Speaker 2: don't think anybody's been put in the position, hopefully not
Speaker 2: yet to go out there and have to start Jalen Polk.
Speaker 2: But you're just looking more so of how this chemistry
Speaker 2: is gonna build with him and Drake May and along
Speaker 2: with the other guys, like we still want to see
Speaker 2: Javon Baker out there. We want to see him get going.
Speaker 2: We want to see Demaryo Douglas continue on being in
Speaker 2: that reliable target to take this offense a little bit further,
Speaker 2: and especially with this matchup this week, I will pump
Speaker 2: the brakes on expectations. They got the Texans and they're
Speaker 2: one of the best pass defenses in NFL right now.
Speaker 2: So man, I'm just gonna just enjoy the ride of
Speaker 2: just seeing how Drake may in his first start this season.
Speaker 1: Looks like I will tell you this one. I think
Speaker 1: you go and you get Jalen Polk if he's out
Speaker 1: there on the waiver wire, I think he's worth an
Speaker 1: ad just because he's starting to get a lot more opportunity.
Speaker 1: But for this week, I would stream the Texans defense.
Speaker 1: They gave Caleb Williams fits. They sacked him seven times.
Speaker 1: I think they're going to pressure a young quarterback again
Speaker 1: and they're worth streaming if that's what you do with
Speaker 1: your defenses. All right, let's turn our attention now two
Speaker 1: Week six. We got buys. Four teams have the week off,
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Rams, the Dolphins, and the Vikings. I'll
Speaker 1: get to sit at home and be fans like the
Speaker 1: rest of us. So that means, yes, some notable quarterbacks,
Speaker 1: running backs, wide receivers all not available to you in
Speaker 1: Week six. But let's now get to Thursday night football,
Speaker 1: Big one in the NFC West, the forty nine Ers
Speaker 1: who kind of scuffling a little bit, going to Seattle
Speaker 1: to take on the Seahawks, who at the moment are
Speaker 1: at your division leaders in.
Speaker 3: The NFC Western Division.
Speaker 1: You can see that game on Thursday eight fifteen pm
Speaker 1: Eastern on Prime Video. I'll ask you about the quarterbacks
Speaker 1: because these two guys that are sort of next to
Speaker 1: each other, I think at a lot of people's rankings,
Speaker 1: a lot of expectations, Brock Purty versus Gino Smith.
Speaker 3: Who would you rather start this week?
Speaker 4: Brock Purty? And it's not even close to me. Now,
Speaker 4: we have seen in the last two weeks against the
Speaker 4: Seattle Seahawks Jared Goff threw a perfect game and just
Speaker 4: lit up them up, and then Daniel Jones carved them
Speaker 4: up without Malik Neighbors out there. So I expect big
Speaker 4: things for Brock Purdy and the passing game. But on
Speaker 4: the flip side, I actually have Gino Smith as a
Speaker 4: sit this week. Not only does he have one passing
Speaker 4: touchdown in each game, but in the history of this matchup,
Speaker 4: he has not played well. His three games that he
Speaker 4: has faced the forty nine Ers as a member of
Speaker 4: the Seahawk he has thrown one touchdown, pass two interceptions, twice,
Speaker 4: was held under two hundred yards, and his high mark
Speaker 4: is two hundred and thirty eight. So yeah, I'm trying
Speaker 4: to find another option for Gino Smith this week.
Speaker 3: But I am excited for Purdy.
Speaker 1: Maybe this is me being a nervous fan, but look,
Speaker 1: I would start Purty over Gino Smith without a doubt.
Speaker 1: But something about this just makes me nervous. The Niner
Speaker 1: secondary has given up some big plays.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: Again, this might be me talking more with my heart
Speaker 1: than any sort of actual statistical analysis to back it up,
Speaker 1: But I'm still with you. I think it's pretty over Gino.
Speaker 1: If you have to decide between the two, maybe you're
Speaker 1: putting together a DFS lineup.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm not the job, I'm not the
Speaker 3: boss of You don't what to do.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, the rest of the Week six previews, Let's go
Speaker 1: over to London, Lakwan the Jaguars and the Bears. Is
Speaker 1: the Jags start their back to back games over there
Speaker 1: in the UK nine to thirty am, so you can
Speaker 1: see that game on NFL Network. Another who would you
Speaker 1: rather hear? Trevor Lawrence, who you know looks like he's
Speaker 1: starting to maybe put it together a little bit. Versus
Speaker 1: Kaleb Williams was a great matchup. Who do you want
Speaker 1: in this one?
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Kayla Williams man just based on
Speaker 2: how he has been building on this momentum the last
Speaker 2: couple of weeks at home, comfortable at the crib, but
Speaker 2: now they're across the pond, and I think he could
Speaker 2: still build off of that confidence and how this offense
Speaker 2: is starting to click. And honestly, this defense had been
Speaker 2: doing a great job doing their job as well, holding
Speaker 2: teams down under twenty points. So we're looking at how
Speaker 2: Kaler Williams has been building and how the connections have
Speaker 2: been building also with this offense, with even DeAndre Swift
Speaker 2: getting involved in the pass and they keep feeding him,
Speaker 2: they play them how they paid him, and then therefore
Speaker 2: that sets up play action for Kayla Williams to honestly
Speaker 2: go out there and deal. So I'm looking more so
Speaker 2: looking at Kiler Williams being more consistent than at Trevor Lawrence,
Speaker 2: who finally showed some life last week, putting up twenty
Speaker 2: Fantasy points plus, and that's been a while since he's
Speaker 2: done that. I mean the last time he did that,
Speaker 2: it was Week thirteen of last season. So I need
Speaker 2: to see more out of Trevor Lawrence before I start
Speaker 2: believing putting him into my starting lineups.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I look, I made the choice last week to
Speaker 1: start him over Kirk Cousins. It wasn't look here. Kirk
Speaker 1: had a huge game here with thirty four points. Remember
Speaker 1: lawyds gave you twenty one, so what wasn't terrible? But
Speaker 1: that also sort of feels like the high water mark,
Speaker 1: and I'm not sure if he can replicate that again
Speaker 1: this week against Chicago. I would say on the road,
Speaker 1: but they're both on the road technically because they're playing
Speaker 1: playing over in London there, so we'll see how How
Speaker 1: are the Jags the road team in this one just
Speaker 1: because they are designated assets, but next week they'll be
Speaker 1: the home team.
Speaker 4: They are London's team.
Speaker 3: Like they are kind of at this point. They are
Speaker 3: kind of London's team at this point.
Speaker 1: Commanders at Ravens, we're calling this the Battle of the Beltway.
Speaker 1: Let's keep the who you Got theme going. Two quarterbacks
Speaker 1: who stylistically are very similar to one another production wise,
Speaker 1: have been very similar to each other as well, so
Speaker 1: Florio Jaden Daniels versus Lamar Jackson, uh, which legitimately somebody
Speaker 1: could have both these guys on a roster depending on
Speaker 1: how you drafted.
Speaker 3: Who would you rather start, though.
Speaker 4: The answer is both. But if I have to choose,
Speaker 4: And it is funny that you say that they're similar,
Speaker 4: because when Jayden was in the NFL draft time, I
Speaker 4: was like, he is like Lamar Jackson in Tyrod Taylor's frame.
Speaker 3: But I would go with Lamar of the.
Speaker 4: Two if I had to choose, only because one of
Speaker 4: these defenses is not very good and one of them is.
Speaker 4: I know the Ravens have been torch through the air
Speaker 4: a good amount. They've been so good against the run.
Speaker 4: But the Commanders look they're playing better. We're saying that,
Speaker 4: but like they're still getting lit up weekly through the
Speaker 4: passing game. Receivers are still eating against them. So I
Speaker 4: would still take the go with Lamar here. But if
Speaker 4: you have either one of these two, I'm starting them
Speaker 4: this week because I expect this to be a high
Speaker 4: scoring game. Both quarterbacks can run. This is my favorite
Speaker 4: game of the week by far.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and I think this is the game that
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna be watching during the day, the early window,
Speaker 1: the earl ish window, I guess because there's the morning
Speaker 1: window on Sunday. But this is gonna be a lot
Speaker 1: of fun to watch, and I would hope this is
Speaker 1: just a PSA for the Internet in general, Like let's
Speaker 1: not spend the whole day comparing who's better and whatever,
Speaker 1: just like, let's just enjoy the game for what it is. Also,
Speaker 1: one is a two time MVP.
Speaker 4: One is playing his sixth NFL game.
Speaker 2: Like, Yeah, let's pump the brakes like game though, Like
Speaker 2: I feel like the early window is like can we
Speaker 2: put them at the Sunday night game? Like this needs
Speaker 2: to be flexed because this is gonna be.
Speaker 4: But you're not excited for Bengals Giants.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a crowded I'm going to bet we'll
Speaker 1: get to that in a little bit. I mean time
Speaker 1: laud Cardinals, Packers. Let's not do the who'd you rather look?
Speaker 1: I mean Caleb Kyler Murray versus Jordan Love interesting conversation.
Speaker 3: But more what I'm interested.
Speaker 1: Is is this finally gonna be the Josh Jacobs breakout game?
Speaker 3: Because he's been okay, but it hasn't been great so far.
Speaker 2: Uh, maybe you know what, And I think it's toally
Speaker 2: about the few things that you could look at of
Speaker 2: why it's a maybe. I mean, the matchup is great,
Speaker 2: the Cardinals are one of the worst run defenses, and
Speaker 2: plus he's getting voluim and it's hard out here in
Speaker 2: the fantasy streets to find a running back that's averaging
Speaker 2: twenty touches per game. There's only a handful of those guys.
Speaker 2: But I think the major issue that a lot of
Speaker 2: fantasy managers have with Josh Jacobs is the rushing touchdowns.
Speaker 2: He found the end zone against my Rams, you know,
Speaker 2: last week, which was his first of the season. So
Speaker 2: hopefully he builds all of that going up against another
Speaker 2: great matchup with this run defense with the Cardinals really
Speaker 2: really poor. But it's also the carries that he's getting
Speaker 2: in striking distance when they're close to the goal line.
Speaker 2: He's only having he's only had nine carries so far
Speaker 2: when they're in the red zone. So therefore that's one
Speaker 2: of those things that you look at, like, all right,
Speaker 2: he only got one in the men on nine carries
Speaker 2: because the Packers are more so a more pass heavy
Speaker 2: offense when they get into the red zone versus them
Speaker 2: actually running the ball. So I think that's what's keeping
Speaker 2: the gap from him being that solid RB one that
Speaker 2: we know he could be. It's just that he's not
Speaker 2: getting those opportunities in striking distance.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it just feels like, you know, Emmanuel Wilson just
Speaker 1: keeps getting opportunities to sort of closing that gap in
Speaker 1: terms of the touches there in Green Bay.
Speaker 3: Time to talk about some sleepers for the week, LQ.
Speaker 2: Who you got, oh Man, Jalen Tobert Man. He's gotten
Speaker 2: me through the pain of trying to find the perfect
Speaker 2: wide receiver off the wire, and this guy is filling
Speaker 2: in great on this Cowboys offense, giving Dak another option
Speaker 2: he can go to on this offense with the run
Speaker 2: game not being so great right now it's not exciting whatsoever.
Speaker 2: And then you're seeing how he is emerging into this
Speaker 2: offense and being a vital, you know, wide receiver that
Speaker 2: Dak can depend on. I mean, you look to week
Speaker 2: two where we finally got the fresher breaf Air a
Speaker 2: wide receiver too, but then you know with Ferguson being
Speaker 2: now that's why that happened. But now with week four,
Speaker 2: you look at him and Fergie how they're operating. They're
Speaker 2: on the same scale on our targets per route rate,
Speaker 2: so therefore they're both They're both critical to this offense.
Speaker 2: And I like how you know Dak is going out
Speaker 2: there dealing the ball and there's a lot of fantasy
Speaker 2: points on this offense just based on we've seen Dak
Speaker 2: support multiple pass catchers with some type of fantasy relevant
Speaker 2: So he's my sleeper this week.
Speaker 1: Put him in starting lineups.
Speaker 3: All right, Floya, who you got this week? Braylan Allen?
Speaker 2: Why?
Speaker 4: Because the Bills cannot guard running backs like at all.
Speaker 4: Here is what the Bills have allowed so far this season.
Speaker 4: The most fantasy points per game, the most yards per carry,
Speaker 4: the most targets, catches, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns to
Speaker 4: running backs. Their secondary is very strong. I talk about
Speaker 4: this a lot, which means that when teams play the Bills,
Speaker 4: they go to their running backs more in the passing
Speaker 4: game and their tight ends more in the passing game.
Speaker 4: I think the Jets are going to go that route
Speaker 4: this week. I think They're gonna want to get the
Speaker 4: ball to their running backs a good amount to control
Speaker 4: the clock, to let their defense do their thing and
Speaker 4: keep Josh Allen on this sideline. So the floor is
Speaker 4: low with someone like Braylen Allen. But we know he's
Speaker 4: got big speed. We know he could get potentially a
Speaker 4: goal on touch here or there. So the upside is high.
Speaker 4: If I need like a swing for the fences type play,
Speaker 4: I like Braylon Allen.
Speaker 1: All Right, So you've got a guy who plays his
Speaker 1: home games in New York, as do and.
Speaker 3: Jersey, New Jersey.
Speaker 2: Hey, don't disrespect Jersey like that, Marcus. They'll be putting
Speaker 2: this out.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying the name on the front of the
Speaker 1: team says New York. That's all I'm saying. They play
Speaker 1: in Jersey. I'm not trying to piss off anybody.
Speaker 3: All Right, here we go.
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, That's what I'm trying to get to. Daniel
Speaker 1: Jones is the guy I'm talking about, because look, Daniel
Speaker 1: Dimes as we'd like to call him, if you're being
Speaker 1: more formal. Three games are two touchdowns and interceptions. Three
Speaker 1: straight games with two hundred and thirty plus passing yards
Speaker 1: facing the Bengals defense. That over the last three weeks
Speaker 1: is a lot about two hundred and seventy five passing
Speaker 1: yards per game with eight touchdowns and an interception. Keep
Speaker 1: an eye on Elite Neighbors still working his way through
Speaker 1: the concussion protocol. But last week we saw Daniel Jones
Speaker 1: go out and have a big game without my league
Speaker 1: Neighbors against the Seattle Seahawks. If Neighbors comes back, it's
Speaker 1: just one more weapon for him to use that only
Speaker 1: brightens the outlook for senior dimes. We still got some
Speaker 1: games to go through here on the Week six slate,
Speaker 1: plus Hora Hot Starts and some hot takes as well.
Speaker 1: Stick around for the NFL Fantasy Football Show. It's time
Speaker 1: to see who will deliver, presented by Uber Eats. Guys,
Speaker 1: we think you're gonna go big in Week six. Lakwan,
Speaker 1: who do you like this week?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: T Higgins Man, he's back, He's healthy. He is a
Speaker 2: guy that I have as a hot start just based
Speaker 2: on he is very critical to his Bengals offense. I
Speaker 2: think he goes out there, shows up, and shows out
Speaker 2: because it's very rare that a wie receiver is playing
Speaker 2: at a wide receiver one level, and right now he
Speaker 2: has more targets in the last two weeks than Jamar Chase,
Speaker 2: so it's very rare that an offense has two wide
Speaker 2: receiver ones.
Speaker 3: So T Higgins keep the ball rolling man, all right?
Speaker 1: So you got T Higgins there.
Speaker 3: Who do you like? Florio?
Speaker 4: I like Caleb Williams, who is coming off his best
Speaker 4: game as a pro running, throwing wise, But it's also
Speaker 4: largely about the matchup. The Jags have allowed the most
Speaker 4: fantasy points per game, second, most passing yards, third, most
Speaker 4: passing touchdowns.
Speaker 1: They've allowed a top.
Speaker 4: Eight fantasy quarterback in four or five games, and that
Speaker 4: other game the quarterback was top twelve, So star quarterbacks
Speaker 4: against the Jags, and Caleb is the lucky winner of
Speaker 4: that matchup.
Speaker 1: It's been wild. When they give Caleb Williams times to throw,
Speaker 1: he looks really good. It makes really good throws. I know,
Speaker 1: it's just a crazy concept, right protection.
Speaker 3: For your quarterback? Who knew?
Speaker 1: I'm going with a veteran and that is a tight
Speaker 1: end there at a zach Ertz and I know it's
Speaker 1: been tough in these tight end streets and arts has
Speaker 1: not necessarily been spectacular, but he's been steady. Actually second
Speaker 1: on the Washington Commander's roster in routes, targets, receptions, and
Speaker 1: receiving yards. Pretty much every major receiving category that.
Speaker 3: We talk about.
Speaker 1: He's going against the Baltimore defense that's been very tight
Speaker 1: and friendly. Fourth most fantasy points allowed to the position,
Speaker 1: second most receptions, second.
Speaker 3: Most receiving yards.
Speaker 1: Look, we know that Terry mclaurin's gonna get his opportunities,
Speaker 1: but beyond that, you know where's the ball gonna go?
Speaker 1: Could go in the hands of Zach Ertz. That was
Speaker 1: Who Will Deliver presented by Uber Eats, where you can
Speaker 1: get the best deals on game day food all season long,
Speaker 1: the official on demand delivery partner of the NFL. Order.
Speaker 3: Now get back to.
Speaker 1: Some of our game previews in Week six the Lions
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys. This one should be a lot of fun,
Speaker 1: potentially a whole lot of points scored. But Florio, have
Speaker 1: we reached panic time on Sam Laporta if it does
Speaker 1: not happen this week?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think so.
Speaker 4: Like I'm at the point right now I only have
Speaker 4: Sam laporter on one team, and it was because it's
Speaker 4: a keeper league. I got him really late. All of that,
Speaker 4: I was fading him as the tight end one. But
Speaker 4: I'm at the point now where I picked up Tucker
Speaker 4: Craft for his bye week last week for Laporters, and
Speaker 4: I'm like, I might just start Tucker Craft over Sam Laporter.
Speaker 4: He does not have five targets in a game since
Speaker 4: Week one. I know last week was his best game
Speaker 4: yardage wise, but no touchdowns. Right now, he's the third
Speaker 4: read often for Jared Goff. I'm just not feeling great
Speaker 4: about Sam Laporter right now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a kind of scary hours for Sam Laporta
Speaker 1: for sure. Sunday Night Football, We've got the Bengals and
Speaker 1: the Giants and Laqwan. Last week, Tyrone Tracy had a
Speaker 1: huge game with no Devin Singletary. Now Singletary is trending
Speaker 1: in the right direction, hoping to get back on the
Speaker 1: field to play. So if both of them are healthy
Speaker 1: and ready to go, which one would you start? And
Speaker 1: the other question is does this look like it's turning
Speaker 1: into a committee there in New York?
Speaker 2: It does look like it's turning into a committee. I
Speaker 2: personally don't have to start Tyrone Chasey, but if you do,
Speaker 2: I do like his upside being there. He's building off
Speaker 2: of a great performance the week previously, and Devin Singletary
Speaker 2: is coming back from a growing injury. It's not like
Speaker 2: an injury that you know, you could just fix overnight.
Speaker 2: This is probably something that's probably gonna linger for the
Speaker 2: next couple of weeks. So I could see Tyrone Tracy's
Speaker 2: touches increase as the weeks go on, and he's looking
Speaker 2: good with these opportunities, So you know, it's definitely a
Speaker 2: guy you should have picked up off the waiver wire,
Speaker 2: but stash him. Haven't ready to go, and you know,
Speaker 2: if he shows some life this week against the Bengals
Speaker 2: and might have to build off you know, saying Devin
Speaker 2: Singletary managers, it's gonna be wicked for him, man.
Speaker 3: You know. And what's frustrating about this is because I
Speaker 3: would say this.
Speaker 1: I wasn't really big on Devin Singletary coming into the year,
Speaker 1: just because I didn't think the Giants offense was gonna
Speaker 1: be that great. And so he has outperformed what I
Speaker 1: expected of him, which is great. Now the possibility of
Speaker 1: him having to share those opportunities, yeah, it's really frustrating all.
Speaker 3: Of a sudden.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's good for the Giants, it's bad for us.
Speaker 1: That's all I got. When and I Football Bills and
Speaker 1: the Jets floial this.
Speaker 3: I mean, look, this is this is.
Speaker 1: Big for you? You know you mentioned on NFL Fantasy
Speaker 1: Live that the Jets are fans of the Mets because
Speaker 1: the Mets winning takes pressure off of the Jets, takes
Speaker 1: some eyeballs away meano for the Bills, and you talked
Speaker 1: about this before. Khalil Shakier obviously has been very good.
Speaker 1: They take him out of that offense and things start
Speaker 1: to scuffle a little bit. Can you start a Bills
Speaker 1: receiver not named Khalil Shakir, especially against this Jets defense.
Speaker 3: Nope, not at all.
Speaker 4: I mean, look, I still have faith in Kean Coleman
Speaker 4: moving forward, like he had a big play last week,
Speaker 4: a long touchdown. He's made some impressive catches, but they're
Speaker 4: not using him enough right now where you could start him,
Speaker 4: especially against Sauce Gardner and DJ Reied So Plus, the
Speaker 4: last time the Bills played the Jets was Josh Allen's
Speaker 4: best game ever against them. But before that, this defense
Speaker 4: has been his kryptonite. So I would stay away from
Speaker 4: the receivers. I think if Shakira is there, you could
Speaker 4: play him because he'll be in the slot a lot,
Speaker 4: but it's it's Shakir Kinkaid James cook or bust When
Speaker 4: it comes to the Bills this week.
Speaker 1: Will we start to see more Dalton kink I'm mean,
Speaker 1: I'm asking you're the resident Bills fan here. I mean
Speaker 1: Dalton k Kate has been nah like any grand scheme
Speaker 1: of titands, He's fine, but not great.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so last week was an interesting game. He had
Speaker 4: a catch on the sideline that was deemed not a catch.
Speaker 4: I don't know why Sean McDermot didn't challenge it. It was
Speaker 4: clearly a catch. And then he he got open on
Speaker 4: what would have been like a seventy yard touchdown, but
Speaker 4: Josh Allen just flat out underthrew him almost it was
Speaker 4: almost intercepted. So I know I keep saying this, but
Speaker 4: I think the season for King Kaid has been better
Speaker 4: than the results have shown so far. I still have
Speaker 4: faith in him moving forward.
Speaker 1: Lakwan Wall ask you a real quid about the Jets too,
Speaker 1: because obviously they make the big change at the head
Speaker 1: coaching position. Robert Salad gone, Jeff Ulbrick takes over as
Speaker 1: the interim. A lot of times we see kind of
Speaker 1: an emotional bump from teams after a change. Here, can
Speaker 1: you expect that? Does that make you more interested in
Speaker 1: starting any Jets players this week.
Speaker 2: Uh No. I mean, look, it's a division bat as well.
Speaker 2: And then the storyline just keeps getting better over there
Speaker 2: in the Jersey Shore, and then like they got Angeline
Speaker 2: out of the house, shout out the Floorio. In the comparison,
Speaker 2: they were Robert Falla. But I just feel like, you know,
Speaker 2: right now, I'm just on a wait and see approach
Speaker 2: here with the Jets offense because it's not consistent.
Speaker 3: You can't really trust it.
Speaker 2: Alan Lazar is still playing good football, and he's still
Speaker 2: really good buddies with Aaron Rodgers, Garrett Wilson. You're just
Speaker 2: gonna have to eat it. You're gonna have to start
Speaker 2: in regardless of which whatever other options you have, because
Speaker 2: you don't want to miss out on the big blow
Speaker 2: up games he just had last week twenty two. Targets
Speaker 2: like this is something that you know, it's just gonna
Speaker 2: be very frustrating to start any Jets offensive players and
Speaker 2: your starting lineups.
Speaker 1: I'm amused that Alan Lazard has become a four letter
Speaker 1: world word in fantasy circles.
Speaker 3: It's likeugh, Alan, the way.
Speaker 1: Fantasy folks just spit that name out of their mouths
Speaker 1: has become amusing to me.
Speaker 3: It's frustrating. It's frustrating. I get it, I totally get
Speaker 3: it for sure.
Speaker 1: It's time to drive your line up, presented by the
Speaker 1: all new hybrid Toyota camer By the way, you can
Speaker 1: catch the rest of our Week six previews on Fantasy
Speaker 1: Extra over on NFL Plus. But let's get spicy, lakwan,
Speaker 1: what are you thinking might happen in Week six?
Speaker 2: This is the big blow up game that we've been
Speaker 2: waiting from K Dodd, and this is the breakout game
Speaker 2: against the Saints, who are on the short week. They're
Speaker 2: kind of banged up as well, but they've been allowing
Speaker 2: a ton of production to the tight ends this season.
Speaker 2: He's a guy that's on the same basis of being
Speaker 2: targeted as much on the target per route basis as
Speaker 2: Chris Godwin. So he's being utilized as one of the
Speaker 2: core pieces in this offense. So he has a role,
Speaker 2: and he has a situation where the Saints are allowing
Speaker 2: eighty percent of completions to tight ends this season, which
Speaker 2: is the fourth highest rate. So kated and breakout game
Speaker 2: this week, let's go.
Speaker 1: All right, So big things from a tight end which
Speaker 1: we will all be thankful for if it actually happens.
Speaker 3: Florio, Let's get spicy.
Speaker 4: Chase Brown will be the RB one this week in
Speaker 4: Week six because Zach Moss is banged up. But even
Speaker 4: more than that, Chase Brown has got more work the
Speaker 4: last two weeks and he has looked excellent. He is
Speaker 4: the best Fantasy game of any running back against the Ravens.
Speaker 4: Through the first four weeks, the Ravens did not allow
Speaker 4: a run of ten plus yards to a running back.
Speaker 4: Last week, Brown got two of them, and that is
Speaker 4: important because that is considered an explosive run, and the
Speaker 4: Giants allow explosive runs at the third highest rate in
Speaker 4: the NFL. They struggle against pass catching backs as well.
Speaker 4: So just give Brown volume this week, Bengals, and I
Speaker 4: think he can have a huge day. And I'm saying
Speaker 4: here the RB one. So let's eat on Sunday Night
Speaker 4: football Chase Brown.
Speaker 1: I would love that because I did invest a little
Speaker 1: bit heavily in Chase Brown in this offseason.
Speaker 3: Fellas, you know what.
Speaker 1: You get when you mix some eggs, some oil, a
Speaker 1: little lemon juice and salt. No mayonnais ooh, all right,
Speaker 1: let's get you That's why I'm saying get your mail
Speaker 1: ready for this week, because Will Levis is going to
Speaker 1: be a.
Speaker 3: Top ten fantasy quarterback in Week six.
Speaker 1: I know it sounds wild, and I know he's had
Speaker 1: some bad games, but you look at the opponents in
Speaker 1: those bad games. It was the Bears, the Jets, and
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Those are the three worst matchups when it
Speaker 1: comes to fantasy quarterbacks. He got a mill of the
Speaker 1: road matchup against the Packers. He scored fifteen points. Not great,
Speaker 1: not terrible. Now he gets a great matchup against the
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. No team has allowed more yards on deep throws.
Speaker 1: Third best matchup for a quarterback so far this season.
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna see Will Levis take some shots downfield.
Speaker 1: Hopefully he and Calvin Ridley are able to connect on
Speaker 1: a couple of them. But either way, I think you're
Speaker 1: gonna get a good game out of Will Lewis. You'll
Speaker 1: probably still get some hilarity to some sort of weird
Speaker 1: off the wall turnover, crazy mimable me thing on the sideline,
Speaker 1: but I think this is gonna be a big Will
Speaker 1: Levis week for the Tennessee Titans. That was drive your
Speaker 1: lineup presented by the all new hybrid Toyota Camry. Whatever
Speaker 1: your vibe, it's a camera vibe. Learn more at Toyota
