1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 1: Wow, what is Welcome to another edition of the NFL

2
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 1: Fantasy Live Podcast. Me man MG Marcus Grant alongside the

3
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: Fantasy Hall of Famer Michael of Fabriano. And this is it,

4
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 1: this is this is many time for everybody I know. Man, So,

5
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,080
Speaker 1: how many championships are you're in? I know you're in

6
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: our show Fleet Championship. Congratulations, I'm in one other one,

7
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm in two? Oh good? So yeah, so it should

8
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 1: be interesting. Um, I'm worried. Marcus Took has a really

9
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: good team. He was like this sneaky good team all

10
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: season long, and he made some great moves off the

11
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: waiver wire, and really Damian Williams was his big pickup

12
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: because he had Kareem Hunt and then Spencer where ended

13
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 1: up getting picked up by somebody else before is to

14
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: could get him, but he in what was a very

15
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: brilliant move at this point, went and picked up Damian

16
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: Williams instead and then spent to where it goes down

17
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: and boom, uh. We we've we've seen, we've seen, and

18
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 1: we're gonna see it again. A lot of backup running

19
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: backs are going to be conciding Fantasy championships. It's uh,

20
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: it's been a wild couple of weeks. Yeah, we're gonna

21
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: talk about that and plenty more. In fact, you know

22
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,839
Speaker 1: it still an eye. We actually split during the regular season.

23
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: I blew him out once. He blew me out once.

24
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 1: Oh wait was that the There was that one week

25
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: where you had I had all the rams and vikings

26
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 1: when they play, you know, I had golf, girly feeling.

27
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: I had a bunch of guys, and I remember that

28
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: I had a few weeks later, he turned around and

29
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: he blew me out. So the rubber match is for

30
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: the championships. I've got uh, I got four um out

31
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,400
Speaker 1: of ten one. I'm playing the miss and I can't

32
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 1: loose to him because I will not hear the end

33
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: of the trash talk. If he beat ever, I'll have

34
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: to shut my phone off. I'll never hear the end

35
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: of it. And then I'm playing Lindsay Rhodes in our

36
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: NFL Talent Championship. Uh. Then I have another league that

37
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: I played with a bunch of friends, uh, that I've

38
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: been playing for years, and then another one where and

39
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: this one maybe is the one that I'm most proud

40
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: of because we've got a group of the best high

41
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: stakes fantasy players out there, and um, I decided to

42
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 1: do a league with all of them, and these are

43
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: the people who I mean, there's a lot on the

44
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: line markets huh and uh ended up in the championship

45
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: this week and against one of the one of the

46
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: great female fantasy football competitors um out there, So that

47
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: is uh that that's gonna be fun too. So I

48
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: got a lot on the line this week, my friend,

49
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: and we got a lot of news to talk about,

50
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff to talk about. Before we do that,

51
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 1: let's go behind the glasses always to our faithful producer,

52
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: Senior Edward L. Murphy Esquire Murph, what's up? Yeah, guys,

53
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 1: I have one of my three teams in the championship

54
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: this upcoming weekend and it's uh, it's the team that

55
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: I thought, like the least about to put the less

56
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: effort into. It happens to be a really good team. Uh.

57
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: And now I'm getting like text from the league like

58
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: you've got to be this guy. He's won two Street

59
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 1: years and he changed his team name to three Pets.

60
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: So now it's like that's that's better. Lot of pressure.

61
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: But does that happen? Does that happen to you? Guys?

62
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: Like like league, you thought the team you thought was

63
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 1: gonna reach the pannicle, all of a sudden, this team

64
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: out of like the blue that just makes a run.

65
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: Like the last couple of weeks, I had a team.

66
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: It didn't necessarily make a long playoff run, but I

67
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 1: was lucky enough to be invited to the King's Classic,

68
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: which is a bunch of fantasy analysts who got together

69
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: in Canton, Ohio to draft. And we did two drafts.

70
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: We did a snake draft and an auction draft, and

71
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: I loved my snake draft team, didn't like my auction team.

72
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: Turns out, the snake draft team was awful. The auction

73
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: draft team was really great and made the playoffs. So

74
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: uh yeah, sometimes you just can never figure, you know.

75
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: So it's almost like fantasy football is hard to predict,

76
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: almost like it is hard to predict. All right, we

77
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: will go through the week sixteen games and he's got

78
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: his delirious pick. But first let's do some news. Well,

79
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:03,279
Speaker 1: the big news from Thursday, Josh Gordon has been suspended

80
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: indefinitely for another violation of the league's substance abuse policy.

81
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, the the first and foremost is sort

82
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: of Josh Gordon's own health. He tweeted that he was

83
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: going to put out on social media. I should say

84
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: that he's going to step away for from the game

85
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: to try and get his mental health right. So certainly

86
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: we wish him the best of luck and all that,

87
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: because that is certainly more of an importance to him

88
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 1: than what our football is going to do. Obviously, though

89
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: this is a fantasy football podcast, so we've got to

90
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: kind of talk about it in that respect as well.

91
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: So that means no Josh Gordon obviously for Championship Week

92
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,799
Speaker 1: and what was gonna be a tough matchup anyway against

93
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. UM and the Patriots offense has not

94
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: been super great fantasy wise. I mean, I guess ideally

95
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: this means more Chris Hogan, but even Chris Hogan has

96
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: been oh isn't it for whatever it is? But like

97
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 1: that's a desperation play, like if you're if you're looking

98
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: for players off the waiver wire, and I'm surprised to

99
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: see that uh is too picked up. Robbie Anderson surprised

100
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: because I didn't think he'd be out there, But I

101
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: guess that's what happened when you're down to two teams left,

102
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: there's still a lot of options off the waiver wire,

103
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: So Robbie Anderson comes to mind as a replacement off

104
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: the wire. UH, Robert Foster, Josh Reynolds, any one of

105
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: the three Broncos wide receivers Sutton Patrick, uh DeShawn Hamilton's

106
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: are also there in the mix too, So there's there's

107
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: some decent options out there. But considering what Gordon had

108
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: done or hadn't done, I mean, he hadn't been putting

109
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: up monster numbers. In the last week, he had his

110
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 1: worst stat line of the season, and as you mentioned,

111
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: it was a bad matchup. So, um, yeah, we hope

112
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: everything goes well with Josh. We welcome the best, you know,

113
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 1: we we wish him the best. But um, you know,

114
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: the fantasy football world keeps moving on, and if Robbie

115
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: Anderson's out there in your lead, I think that would

116
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: be the guy that I'd be targeting because he's been

117
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: good in two straight weeks and the Packers defense has

118
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: not been good against wide receiver. Yeah, it took a

119
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: long time, but Robby Anderson final that came around. He

120
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 1: was a guy liked as a sleeper coming into the year.

121
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: It has taken you know, fourteen fifteen weeks for it

122
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 1: to actually happen. But here we are, Um, Cam Newton

123
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: expected to miss the rest of the season. This isn't

124
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: really a surprise after what we saw from him on

125
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,679
Speaker 1: Monday Night against the Saints. That shoulder obviously is a problem.

126
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: The Panthers are pretty much done this year, so that

127
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 1: means that that Cam Newton has probably gone. Bigger question

128
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: is now that Taylor Heineke is set to be the

129
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,799
Speaker 1: what does that mean for guys like you know, Devin Functious,

130
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: d J. Moore, Curtis Samuel. I think, you know, Christian

131
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 1: McCaffrey still sees a ton of touches. The rest of

132
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: those guys I think have to take a little bit

133
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: of a hit and ain't good. He's had five completions

134
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: are five pass attempts. I believe in his entire career

135
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 1: he broke all kinds of records at Old Dominion. Um

136
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: but yeah, like in this weird fantasy world, I'll probably

137
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: go out there and score like eighteen fantasy points whatever.

138
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: But um, yeah, the the only player right now in

139
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: Carolina that you can start with any kind of confidence

140
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: and would be Christian McCaffrey. As you said, he was

141
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: rested on Wednesday. A lot of people freaked out because

142
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: he didn't practice, but he's gonna be fine. If you're

143
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: looking for quarterback replacements for Cam Newton, like Dak Prescott's

144
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: probably owned in your league, but if he's not, go

145
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: get him. Baker Mayfield's got a good matchup. Lamar Jackson's

146
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: probably owned, but good matchup. Josh Allen the highest scoring

147
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: quarterback and Fantasy football in the last four weeks. And

148
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: that's not a mistake, it is the truth. If you're

149
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: in a deeper league, Sam Donald had looked bad, you know,

150
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: Nick Foles has got a good match up against Houston,

151
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: So there are some options out there. And to be

152
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: quite honest with you, based on what Kim had been

153
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: doing or not been doing, you're probably gonna be in

154
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: a in a better spot because if you were going

155
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: to roll with Cam Newton this week number one, he

156
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: was my cinema the week at quarterback before he went down, obviously,

157
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: and he just I mean that dude looked like he

158
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: was throwing in pain. The throwers were painful to watch,

159
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: and at that point I don't even know how he

160
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: played in that game. I mean he's been banged up

161
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: for several games. You could see that something was just

162
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: not right with Cam Newton. He was he was a

163
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: lot closer to Clark Kent than he was Superman the

164
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: last several weeks, and we knew why. He's got a

165
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: bad shoulder. Yeah, so we won't see him until twenty nineteen. Um,

166
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: I just think it's gonna be the Christian McCaffrey show

167
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: for the last couple of games. You would think so,

168
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: considering you know, you get him in out in space

169
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: and some bubble screens, hand the ball off to him.

170
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: Apparently you can throw a touchdown past four now it man? Whatever? Uh?

171
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: Speaking of running backs, Melvin Gordon is expected to be

172
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: back to play this week on Saturday. Remind you there

173
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: are a couple of Saturday games. He's gonna play on

174
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: Saturday against the Baltimore Ravens. Now he could have played,

175
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: or he wanted to play. I should say last week

176
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: that he really pushed for it. The Chargers held him back,

177
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: didn't put him in the game. Obviously, they ended up

178
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: getting a big, big win. But Melvin Gordon coming back,

179
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you love that. The matchup is not great,

180
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 1: but he's just such a volume monster off. I can't

181
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 1: bench him. I mean, I get it Ravens coming off

182
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: the injury, but dude, I mean he's given you nineteen

183
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: plus points in every game but one this season, regardless

184
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: of matchup. He's a guy who is just magnetic when

185
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 1: it comes to the end zone. He said. He typically

186
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: finds uh that paying an area more often than not.

187
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: So he's back in time for your fantasy championship, which

188
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: means Justin Jackson, Austin Neckler go to the back of

189
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 1: the line and Gordon's back being in our number one

190
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: running back this week, so we'll see what happens with that. Yeah,

191
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,839
Speaker 1: the Justin Jackson, dam mean he was nice played for

192
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Yeah, dude, I mean he helped

193
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: me last week. He got me to one of my finals.

194
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: But that that is over a little bit of Packers news.

195
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: Joe Philbin, the interim head coach, says, or won't say,

196
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: I should say whether or not Aaron Rodgers will play

197
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: against the Jets. He has practiced for a couple of

198
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,959
Speaker 1: days this week. Of course, the backers eliminated from playoff contention.

199
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers still a little bit gimpy right now. So

200
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 1: we'll see if he plays. We know for sure Aaron

201
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: Jones will not play. He has been placed on Injrew reserves.

202
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,199
Speaker 1: So it is the Jamal Williams Show. But I gotta

203
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: guess that if Aaron Rodgers doesn't go and end up

204
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: being Deshaun Keyser, Uh, that changes the way you at

205
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: some of these Packers. Yeah, no doubt. I mean, I'm

206
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 1: still starting Davante Adams, but I don't know if there's

207
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 1: anyone else I could start with confidence If Rogers is

208
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: not going to be under center. Uh, he was a

209
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 1: participant in Thursday's practice, and I would I would guess

210
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: that he'll be under center. With that being said, I'm

211
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 1: not Joe Philbin. I don't know for sure, but he's practicing.

212
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: Let's just put it that way. Now. Is there the

213
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: possibility that, uh, if the Packers are out of this

214
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 1: game in the second half, that Rodgers is benched. I

215
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: mean yeah, That's that's why when you get into Week sixteen,

216
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: in certain situations, you don't like them, but they come

217
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: to your mind. It's the same thing with Todd Gurley.

218
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,199
Speaker 1: If the Cardinals are getting blown out by the Rams

219
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: in the first half of the game and we know

220
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: girls not the Rams rest girly. I mean, that's the

221
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: situation we find ourselves in every single year right around

222
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 1: this time, where there's teams that are in playoff contention, uh,

223
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: that have banged up players, and if there's a scenario

224
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: where game script allows them to rest a player like

225
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: a girl, really it could happen. So and it's the

226
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: same thing with Rogers, except for there not in playoff contention,

227
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 1: which means it's even more I put him out there

228
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: right that that he may not play or may not

229
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: play very much. So keep an eye on all those.

230
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously it stinks to potentially lose a Aaron

231
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: Rodgers for your championship week, but this is the world.

232
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: There you go, and that is pretty much everything you

233
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 1: need to know. Normally we would get right to the

234
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: Week sixteen preview here, but first there was some other

235
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 1: news that happened across the world of fantasy football. And

236
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: it happened thanks to the official scorekeepers I guess of

237
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: the NFL, and that we know you know there have

238
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: been some stack correction they are always stack corrections, but

239
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: we had a big one. I know the Colts had

240
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: a stack correction on their defense but the biggest one

241
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: came with Ezekiel Ellie. It uh in that there was

242
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 1: a play that was originally ruled a fumble on a

243
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 1: fourth down rush attempt by Ezekiel Elliott. It was ruled

244
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: originally a fumble and was gonna be minus two for Zeke. Instead,

245
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: it was ruled a turnover on downs that he was

246
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: taken down in the backfield. It was a turnover on downs.

247
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 1: The fumble goes away, Zeke gets those two points back.

248
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: It also means too fewer points for the Colts defense.

249
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: They take two points away from there. I would think

250
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: that the Zeke portion of that had maybe a bigger

251
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: impact than the Colts portion of that. But you got

252
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 1: a lot of folks who woke up on Thursday morning

253
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: thinking that they were gonna play for a fantasy championship

254
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: who might not be Yeah, there were some of them

255
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: in my Twitter timeline and they were not happy. But

256
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: the situation that stinks here is that, Okay, like you know,

257
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: you may have gotten knocked out, but I mean it's Thursday.

258
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: So like we had a stat correction with Jared Goff

259
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: that really didn't affect golf and are affected the Eagles

260
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 1: defense That came out earlier in the week, and I mean,

261
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: I don't know who to talk to. Like I could

262
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: call I could call Roger. He won't pick the phone up.

263
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 1: And hey, Roger, we need these, uh, we need these

264
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,199
Speaker 1: stack corrections before Thursday there, before Wednesday night when people

265
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: are putting in their waiver claims. And so for me, like,

266
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: if if that's what the call is, I gotta eat it, man,

267
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: I gotta live with that. I mean, it kind of

268
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 1: is what it is. I you know, I don't whatever.

269
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: If the league wants to correct the stats or whatever

270
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: for official record keeping down the road, that's fine. I

271
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: I would think for fantasy it would be nice to

272
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: just have a statute of limitations where if if it

273
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: doesn't come by, you know whatever Tuesday afternoon or something

274
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: like that, then you know, so be it. It is

275
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: just what it is. But hey, look, if it happened

276
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: to you and you got bumped, sorry about your luck.

277
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: If it happened to you and you got in, hey

278
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: good for you. You You got a second line, and take

279
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: advantage of it. It is a weird thing, uh, that

280
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: that happens. I mean, obviously you get stack corrections all

281
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: during the year, and you hear about it. Obviously, it's

282
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: it's far less impactful when it happens in like weeks

283
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: six versus week fifteen. Um, yeah, that's kind of as

284
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: a fors Gump will say, that's all I got to

285
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: say about. Yeah, there's just there's really no good answer.

286
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: It would be great if these things could be finalized

287
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: by Tuesday night Wednesday morning, because now, if you're a commissioner,

288
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,359
Speaker 1: I mean so to number one, if you're the commissioner

289
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: and this happened, you just gotta deal with it. You

290
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: have to deal with it. Uh, whatever the scenario is.

291
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: The correct call right now is that Zeko Elliott was

292
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: given to additional points in the Colts defense was uh

293
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: subtracted to two points. And the problem here is that

294
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: you know, the team that thought it was in probably

295
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: made waiver claims already, and the team that thought it

296
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: was out didn't. So now, as the commissioner, you almost

297
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: have to put the players who were picked up by

298
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: the team that is now out back into the pool

299
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: of available free agents and allow the process to go

300
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 1: through again, because it's not fair that a team that

301
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: is now out I was able to pick up a

302
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: player and it's really for not while another team that

303
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: is now in that maybe could use that player, they

304
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: should be able to get access to that player. So

305
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: it's it's a big it's a big nightmare. It's it's

306
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: a mess as a commissioner. But that's that's why being

307
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 1: a fantasy football commissioner is not all uh you know,

308
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 1: Pappa pie and rainbows. As Elliott Harrison would say, uh so, yeah,

309
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: y'all have fun with that. Um all right, Week sixteen,

310
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: it's winning time, as as our friend Matt money Smith

311
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: would say, it's nut cutting time. Let's got this. So

312
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: we will start a couple of Saturday games, one down

313
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: in Tennessee, Washington, heading down there to take on the Titans.

314
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: And it's just a simple question. Do you start anybody

315
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: in that Washington offense? Come on, man, you're on Jeremy

316
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: Sprinkles bandwagon. You know who you are. I mean, look again,

317
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: I enjoyed watching some of his tape when he was

318
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: in Arkansas. Uh but yeah since then, No, I mean, dude,

319
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: I'm not playing any Redskins. I was like, looking at

320
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: I went done the run like nope, nope, nope, nope, nope,

321
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 1: nope that was it. No, this is a this is

322
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: a a very heavy Tennessee game. This is Derrick Henry,

323
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: this is Corey Davis, and if you look at the matchup,

324
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: Davis has got a really good win against Washington. This

325
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: is the Titans defense, which is a phenomenal stream this week,

326
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: phenomenal stream. It's all about Tennessee Washington. All of their

327
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: players are fade for me and this one. Yeah, I

328
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: just I gotta stay away from there bad. You mentioned

329
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, so obviously the dude has been a hero

330
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks with what he's done over

331
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: four hundred rushing yards in the last two games combined.

332
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: So with that said, projections, I mean, I it's hard

333
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: to think he's gonna get you another you know, buck

334
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: eighty two yards, but who knows, right, You never know.

335
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: But Washington has certainly not been good against the run,

336
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: especially lately. So if you have Derrick Henry, you would

337
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: be a fool not to play him, even if it's

338
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: a flex. He is a guy that right now could

339
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: end up very well becoming the fantasy playoff m v P.

340
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: I mean, the dude scored seventy eight points in his

341
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 1: last two games. It's insane. He had like from weeks

342
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: one to twelve, right, I mean he so he jumped

343
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: up from what he's like a top twenty running back

344
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: now it was in the thirties to be in like

345
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 1: close to top fifteen, right, just on the strength of

346
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 1: two weeks. I know it's crazy, It is crazy, but heck, dude,

347
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 1: right a man, I mean, you gotta play him this,

348
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: this is the week you have to play him. He's

349
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 1: been playing well, he's got a good matchup. Everything signals

350
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,160
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry being in your lineup, which means he's gonna

351
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 1: get like, you know, thirty seven yards. Uh yeah, he

352
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: came through trying to stay optimistic, all right. The other

353
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: Saturday game, the Ravens come to the wasn't the StubHub Center.

354
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: That's what it is? The soccer fields. Yes, yes, I

355
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 1: remember the I remember its original life is the Home

356
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 1: Depot Center. Fun fact, the first time I ever went

357
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: there was not for a sporting event. It was to

358
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: see the roots open for the Dave Matthews band. How

359
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 1: about that. It was pretty fantastic, great show. Anyway, Ravens

360
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: Charger should be a pretty good show as well. Oh,

361
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: by the way, these Saturday games to be just a shill.

362
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: They are both on our air. You can catch them

363
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: out on NFL Network out check them out. The first

364
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,199
Speaker 1: game is at four thirty Eastern. The second game and

365
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 1: believe at the eight o'clock Eastern, I believe is the

366
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 1: kickoff for that second game. But either way, they're both

367
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:18,719
Speaker 1: on the net. Weor just turn on NFL Net. We're

368
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,400
Speaker 1: gonna just let it run all day. You'll be fine,

369
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 1: all right, Pick one Keim Dixon or Gus Edwards if

370
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 1: you have to pick one of those two running backs.

371
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:30,360
Speaker 1: Where man? So, I mean, I guess I'm going with

372
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: Gus the Bus after what we saw last week. But

373
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 1: I mean, it's so volatile. And by the way, Melvin

374
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: Gordon has been taken off the injurer Austin Ekeler is doubtful,

375
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: which beans Justin Jackson will be the backup to Melvin

376
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 1: Gordon in that contest. And uh, our friend Keenan Allen

377
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: questionable for that game, So keep tabs on his status.

378
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: It's a good thing he's on Saturday because now you

379
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: know you can you can you can based on the

380
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 1: Sunday games. So I guess I would go with Gus

381
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 1: the Bus, but you never know what's gonna have and

382
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 1: if the Chargers take a lead, the Ravens have to

383
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,560
Speaker 1: throw to catch up, which is not great news for

384
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: the Ravens offense because of what they have turned into.

385
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: You know, then we could see kind of thicks and

386
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 1: getting his opportunities in terms of targets out of the

387
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 1: passing game. But I go with Gus right now, and

388
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 1: and really like it's lamar. I mean, justin Tucker Gus,

389
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: I think that's it. I'm not playing the Ravens defense.

390
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: I'm not playing them against the Charges. They don't turn

391
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: the ball over a whole heck of a lot. Typically

392
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: that's a that's a tough play. So yeah, I'm not

393
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 1: doing that. You mentioned Keenan Allen questionable right now, um

394
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 1: could possibly play if he does not go. How much

395
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: better or worse potentially is Mike Williams this well, I mean,

396
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: the opportunities you would think are going to be more

397
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: plentiful there as we saw last week against the Chiefs.

398
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: With that being said, the Chiefs defense is not any

399
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,919
Speaker 1: good and the Ravens defense is extremely good. So the

400
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: only way that I would play Mike Williams is if

401
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: it was a flex starter situation and Keenan Allen was inactive.

402
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: If Keenan Allen is and that is active in this game,

403
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: I'm not touching Mike Williams. The Ravens are really tough

404
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: against wide receivers are split out wide, so I'm gonna

405
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: avoid that. And honestly, I mean, Mike Williams is coming

406
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 1: off the best game of his career, and in the

407
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: week's leading up to that game, he was kind of me,

408
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: so I would I would think he's gonna end up

409
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: going back to being met, especially if Keenan Allen is

410
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 1: is able to get out there. Bengals at Brown's, So

411
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,399
Speaker 1: any Bengals not named Joe Mixon are worth while I

412
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: was looking. You know, Jeff Driscoll, No, uh, their wide

413
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 1: receivers with Alex Erickson. Sure, Cody Core, I mean c

414
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: J Zama. We tried that experiment last week and it

415
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 1: blew up in our face, So that's not no Cody.

416
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,199
Speaker 1: Cody Core, by the way, sounds like the name of

417
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 1: a superhero alter ego. It's like they're always they're always

418
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 1: so a literative thing. You know, you got Peter Parker,

419
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:51,360
Speaker 1: Miles Morales, Coody Core. You know, it's like it work

420
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 1: Clark Kent all of these they're all like a literation.

421
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,919
Speaker 1: But uh yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't you would go

422
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: through all of those? What? No, what the once do

423
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: we have? Well? Bruce Wayne is not um wait is it?

424
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: Bruce Banner? Bruce Banner would be right. Bruce Banner would

425
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: be Okay, we'll do it later. And we just named

426
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: off like four or five. You got one a now,

427
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: well I just started thinking like the Avengers, like Tony

428
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 1: Stark or just doesn't have any other name. It's just

429
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 1: it's just like singular names. We have gone to it

430
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 1: into a different defension. Really nerdis him on this show,

431
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: but hell, why not Deven diagram of fantasy folks and

432
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: comic book folks. I'm sure too. Yes, pretty now the

433
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 1: rest of the show, I'm gonna be thinking of more. Okay,

434
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: So this is like a really good week matchup wise

435
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: for Baker Mayfield. He threw four touchdown passes the last

436
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: time these teams played back in Week twelve. And for

437
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: all the good things Baker Mayfield has done, I have

438
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: a tough time consistently trusting any of their past catchers.

439
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry kind of fades in and out you know,

440
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,640
Speaker 1: David and Joe who has had some good weeks, he's

441
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: had some bad weeks. Richard Higgins, Antonio Callaway have really

442
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: not really done much to speak of. So, assuming this

443
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: is a good matchup for Baker Mayfield, which of these

444
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 1: past catchers do you believe in? Dude? I don't know

445
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: if I believe in any of them. Like, I mean,

446
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: I would play Robby Anderson or Jarvis Lander this week,

447
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: you know, if I could pick him up off the

448
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: waiver wire. Lander has just been so hit or miss,

449
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: and typically it's been more miss during the course of

450
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: the season. So I do trust a Baker in this game.

451
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: I trust Nick Chubb in this game. I think you're

452
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 1: forced to trust David and Jocob because there are no

453
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: tight ends out there and the matchup is good. And

454
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: I kind of like the Browns defense too as a streamer. Yeah,

455
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 1: definitely against the Bengals. I mean they're down, I mean

456
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: they have Joe nothing. I mean that they're down their

457
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: number one quarterback, They're down their number one and number

458
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 1: two wide receivers. So the Browns defense could be one

459
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: of those sneaky sleepers at defense. Yeah, I do like that.

460
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 1: I definitely like the Browns defense as a streamer this week,

461
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 1: I think that's a that's a good play Bucks at Cowboys.

462
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: Do you believe in either Jameis Winston or Mike Evans,

463
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 1: especially because Evans has been He's been so faster. Family,

464
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: I have Evans in one of the leagues I'm alive

465
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,239
Speaker 1: in and I'm gonna play him. I don't particularly love it,

466
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: but I don't. I don't like Winston this week. We

467
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 1: told you to bencham last week, and that was kind

468
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 1: of an easy one because the matchup is so tough,

469
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 1: and it was it was raining in Baltimore. But I mean,

470
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are giving up less than two passing yards

471
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: of game and fewer than sixteen fantasy points to quarterbacks

472
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: on their home field. The Cowboys are one of these

473
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 1: weird teams, and the Buccaneers are kind of like this

474
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 1: to it. They've actually been really tough defensively at home.

475
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: On the road, they just give it up like crazy.

476
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: The Cowboys are really tough at home, typically very tough.

477
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 1: And then I remember Mariotta had a good game against

478
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,400
Speaker 1: u UH a few weeks ago. But typically we're we're

479
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,679
Speaker 1: and I say we because whatever, I'm a cop the

480
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: Dallas defensive is typically pretty good at home, and that's

481
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: another good streaming option if you're out there looking to

482
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 1: pick up something off the waiver wire for this week.

483
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: Um on the other side, I mean, we've been pretty

484
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: much starting everybody against the Bucks. Sodak we know, I

485
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: mean Zeke obviously, Mary Cooper bounces back from a poor

486
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: game last week. Michael Gallup, I mean, if you were

487
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: looking for a sleeper or maybe you're maybe you're in

488
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 1: the daily league or something like that with is Michael

489
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: Gallup worth the dart throw this work? I mean a

490
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: dart throw, yes, but that's about it. He he could

491
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 1: have actually had a couple of really big stat lines

492
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: had docked not overthrown. Now he's missed him on a

493
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: few we We've seen that happen a handful of times.

494
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,880
Speaker 1: But you know, Gallops not somebody that I can trust

495
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,719
Speaker 1: right now during the fantasy playoffs. I hope he has

496
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: a big game as a Cowboys fan, but I'm not

497
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: trusting him here. Vikings at Lions, all right, So you

498
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 1: gotta pick a Viking's wide receiver, Stefon Diggs or Adam Feeling,

499
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 1: which one would you trust more? I've got Feeland ranked higher,

500
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 1: but I would trust both of them, but feeling actually

501
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: has he's kind of he's kind of faded a little

502
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: bit and he's tailed off. But they're both players that

503
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: you're that you're starting without question. Um. I mean, I

504
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: think everybody like Kirk Cousins. I mean, like at this

505
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 1: point though, he's been so inconsistent that I woul and

506
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 1: trust him in Championship week in the matchup is just

507
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: sort of so, So I don't know that I could

508
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: count on Kirk Cusins this week. Yeah. By the way,

509
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: Matt Murdoch another one, So I'm gonna yes, Um, I

510
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't trust Cousins because regardless of the matchup, whether it's

511
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: been good or bad, he hasn't been able to produce.

512
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I liked him last week and he started

513
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 1: out the game's great, right, look like he was gonna

514
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,639
Speaker 1: have the first first drive was great here that I've

515
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 1: had in fifteen, which actually wasn't bad considering how awful

516
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,360
Speaker 1: the quarterback position was. But um, hard to trust, hard

517
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: to trust. Speaking of trust, is there a lion that

518
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 1: you trust this week? Like I've been I've been I've

519
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: been hitting Zack Zentner as a sleeper this week, and

520
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 1: I thought about as much as I can go, and

521
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: I think that he is certainly in that sleeper conversation.

522
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: But I mean I don't even like, I don't even

523
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 1: trust Galladay, and like, I get it. You know, you

524
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: can crap on me. Ah, you you said Galladay was

525
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 1: a bad play last week. He was, but he he

526
00:25:57,920 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: he had a good game. I mean, he had a

527
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 1: good game. I don't know that he's gonna do that again.

528
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: I can't save your roads. So maybe you play him

529
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: because of the name, because of the possibility that he

530
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,400
Speaker 1: could put up a good stat line. But the matchup

531
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 1: guys is just not favorable. No, it's just not you know,

532
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 1: It's funny. We are in week sixteen now, and I

533
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 1: feel like we have barely talked about Matthew Stafford this

534
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: year because he's just been He's been a nine, he's

535
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 1: been a noned, he has been a sent him in

536
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,879
Speaker 1: my column I think almost every week of the second

537
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: half of the season. I mean, just that's how bad

538
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 1: it is. I mean, this is the guy who was

539
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 1: he was sort of one of the examples of weight

540
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: on a quarterback, Like, hey, you can get a Matthew

541
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: Stafford in the ninth round and he'll be fine. Not

542
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: this year, not this year, Bills at Patriots. Alright, So

543
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Right, like every week we sit here and

544
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: we're like, he can't do it again, Like he's not really,

545
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 1: he just can't keep burning the ball the way he

546
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 1: is and he doesn't throw it well enough. And so

547
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,400
Speaker 1: last week he didn't have a lot of rushing yards,

548
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 1: but he did have a rushing touchdown, he had a

549
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 1: passing touchdown, He had what about two hundred passing yards

550
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: and it ended up being a decent game. Another game

551
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,400
Speaker 1: with eight teen fantasy points for him. So are are

552
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: we all in? Or is this the whole Belichick shuts

553
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 1: down another rookie quarterback thing. You know, we've sat here

554
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: and like just had to apologize every single week. Are

555
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 1: we going to be doing this again on Monday? Uh?

556
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:19,399
Speaker 1: Wade Wilson, by the way, Um, so I have that. No,

557
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,160
Speaker 1: I haven't ranked outside of my top twelve this week.

558
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,640
Speaker 1: Here's what I'm worried about with with Alan is that

559
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,120
Speaker 1: he's been good. Okay from a fantasy perspective, He's still

560
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: not the most accurative throwers, let's put it that way.

561
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: The Patriots are surrounding an eighty two passer rating and

562
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: an average of fewer than sixteen points per game two

563
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks when they're playing at Gillette, So they've been tough

564
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,720
Speaker 1: on quarterbacks. The Patriots need this game. They're they're not

565
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 1: playing well right now. You know, they just came off

566
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: the loss to the Steelers. They've lost some bad games

567
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: over the second half of the season, So I think

568
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: at home, Belichick's gotta come up with some kind of

569
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 1: magic here. Josh Allen's really the only weapon the Bills have,

570
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: unless you consider Robert Foster a weapon, and he has

571
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 1: been the Shawan McCoy is supposedly going to play, but

572
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,640
Speaker 1: I'm a McCoy is done next to nothing. So I

573
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 1: I personally would fade Allen this week. But I can

574
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,439
Speaker 1: absolutely see him being active in two QB leagues and

575
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: in super flex leagues, no doubt about it. So we

576
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: talked obviously a little bit about the Patriots in light

577
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: of the Josh Gordon suspension. But I mean, I never

578
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: thought we'd say this in Week sixteen, but are there

579
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 1: any of them that you're really confident in this week?

580
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you always got to have some confidence in

581
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman because he's gonna he's gonna see the targets, right,

582
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: They're going to target him no matter what. So Edelman

583
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: is still a play for me. And in fact, you

584
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: can make the argument that maybe he's going to see

585
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: more targets now because Gordon's out of action. I don't

586
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: know if I would make that argument, but I mean,

587
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski is the big question mark this dude. So

588
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: you know in our in our league, my team just

589
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: was bad. I had the second most points against me.

590
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: I had a bad draft, and part of my bad

591
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 1: draft was drafting ground Cow I think third or fourth he.

592
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: I mean he and you have to play him because

593
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 1: there's nothing at tight end. The injury seemed to have

594
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 1: taken a toll because he has fallen off in the

595
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: worst way this year. I don't know that he's going

596
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 1: to be in New England if he's playing next season,

597
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if he was in Detroit like

598
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 1: Mat Patricia. That would be interesting. Yeah, that would definitely

599
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: be interesting. I don't know if he's gonna play again

600
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 1: next season, that we'll see. I would he will go

601
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 1: on a w W E career path. He's gonna do

602
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 1: I could totally see him doing that, um, you know,

603
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: and just kind of hanging out and living the gronk life.

604
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: So uh, Packers at the Jets. How much do I

605
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: know you love Jamal Williams If if you know I

606
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: mentioned this before, if there's no Aaron Rodgers and it's

607
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: Deshan Kaiser, do you still love Jamal Williams the same?

608
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: I mean I like him less because Aaron Rodgers will

609
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: basically nullify any chance of defense has it stacking a

610
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: box against Jamal Williams. But I used to because I

611
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: say it's like you know, I say it all the time,

612
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 1: like volume miss King, like it doesn't matter, Like Jamal

613
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: Williams is not the most talented running back in the NFL.

614
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: I mean, like, let's put it that way, dude. I mean,

615
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: you know everyone knew if you watch tape and you

616
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: watch these games, and Aaron Jones was way better than

617
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: him talent wise, more dynamic. But Jamal Williams is going

618
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: to get I mean, you would think a minimum of

619
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: about fifteen to eighteen touches in this game. And remember

620
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: the last season, Jamal Williams was pretty decent and for

621
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: fantasy owners, he wasn't bad at all, and now he's

622
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: back in a featured role with Aaron Jones out in

623
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: Time Montgomery in Baltimore. I'm playing him just based on

624
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 1: the volume. Like Elijah McGuire. Okay, Elijah McGuire hasn't popped

625
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: off the screen when you watch him on tape, but

626
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 1: Volume twenty plus touches in two straight games and he's

627
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: given you a double digit points. He's spent good. So

628
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 1: that's why I like him. If you know, I'm in

629
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: a situation in one of my leagues where I have

630
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: Jamal and I have Damian Williams, and I also have

631
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 1: Spencer wear. Now, unless I hear that Spencer weaar is

632
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: not going to play, I'm playing Jamal Williams because that's

633
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 1: a Sunday night game and I don't want to get

634
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: stuck with Damian Williams and Spencer. We're in a backfield

635
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: committee if they're both active. So I'm gonna play Jamal Williams.

636
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: I just think volume is king, and so I like

637
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: going with the guy who I know is going to

638
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 1: get touches. Yeah, I mean, I think that's that's the

639
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: upside there. I worry a little bit about the matchup,

640
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: just because the Jets have been tough. And you know,

641
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: if if it ends up being DeShawn Keyser, how much

642
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 1: this changes it. But it's hard, it's hard to find.

643
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: You're not gonna find anybody else's gonna get the ball.

644
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: And he had almost twenty against the Bears last week.

645
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: So I mean, you know, right, volume is King is King? Uh?

646
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: Sam Donald sleeper? I kind of dig him. He looked

647
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: good last week. I'm in a super flex league, I'm

648
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: in the finals. Cam was one of my quarterbacks. I

649
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: picked him up in folds, and I'm gonna try to

650
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: figure out who I'm gonna play at that second, at

651
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 1: that flex spot. Maybe I won't play either one of them.

652
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: But he's you look you look good. He's playing against

653
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 1: a Green Bay defense that can be had. I think

654
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: if Donald has a couple of more good performances, you're

655
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: gonna be hearing a lot of buzz about him as

656
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: we get into the off season and getting into next season.

657
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 1: As Sam Donald becoming a a pretty nice sleeper quarterback. Allah,

658
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: you know Jared Golf, Allah, you know Mitch Drobiskie, a

659
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: guy going into his second season. Uh, let's see Texans

660
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: against the Eagles. How are you feeling about Lamar Miller's

661
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 1: ankle is not quite right. There's talk that maybe Deante

662
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: Foreman comes back to play. Guy has been good most

663
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: of the year. This seems a scary situation. Yeah, I

664
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: mean got a little bit banged up in his most

665
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: recent game. He's a flex for me at best. Yeah,

666
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: that's where I have him. Lamar Miller is like, he's

667
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 1: like that that girl that you dated for a while

668
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: and you were kind of suspicious of her. You thought

669
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 1: maybe she had cheated on you, so you always wanted

670
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: you always wanted to hang out with her, but you're

671
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: always afraid that at some point she was gonna burn you.

672
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: That's Lamar Miller, because the guy's got the talent, but

673
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 1: he's been so unreliable at times during the course of

674
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: his NFL career that you're always afraid that he's gonna

675
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 1: burn you. And that's my situation this week with Lamar.

676
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 1: I really think there's a chance that he could burn

677
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: fantasy owners. Yeah. You know, it's funny because he, for

678
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: me at least, has exceeded my expectations for the year.

679
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: But now all of a sudden in a big spot. Uh,

680
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 1: do I really want to trust him like starter, I

681
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: could see, But do I really want to trust him

682
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: anything more than that? I don't. I don't know that

683
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: I could get down with um. So it was last

684
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 1: week kind of a fluke. Or is all Sean Jeffrey

685
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: back now? Unreal? Right? I mean like unreal pretty much

686
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 1: written him off. I had kind of given up on

687
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: all Sean Jeffrey, and then last week he has a

688
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 1: huge game and he had seventeen against the Cowboys the

689
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: week before, So like, I'm all in now on him,

690
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 1: and if I have him, he's a flex at worst.

691
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: And Houston's defense, if you've looked at it the last

692
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,959
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, has not been good. In fact, they

693
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 1: have been given it up to wide receivers. And I'm

694
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: gonna look up the stats here for you in a second,

695
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: but this defense has really struggled. They've been they have

696
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: not been great. They've given up the second most points

697
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: to wide receivers. Since week twelve, They've allowed the sixth

698
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 1: most points to wide receivers split out wide. So this

699
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: is a perfect nario for Alsh and Jeffrey to help

700
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 1: you win a fantasy championship. And we know that Nick

701
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: Foles certainly has a report with him. All right, Falcons

702
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: at Panthers. Uh so Tevin Coleman, you know Smith is

703
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 1: on it, I R So that means it's pretty much

704
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman back there. So that's good volumes. Good Panthers

705
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: run defense has been pretty good there. So how are

706
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 1: we feeling about Devin? That's why I didn't like Ingram

707
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: this past week, and Um Ingram did not put up

708
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 1: a good line. I think it's a flex and you know,

709
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 1: we say it again, volume, The volume is going to

710
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: be there unless they use some unknown running back, you know,

711
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: off the practice squad or whatever the case may be.

712
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 1: You know, so one of these weird Gus Edwards situations.

713
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 1: But I would think that um, Tevin is a fine

714
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: flex starter because he should see volume. I mean, so

715
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: we talked a little bit about the Panthers offense. Now

716
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: no more Cam Newton for the rest of the season.

717
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 1: So there is there anybody there you trust beyond Christian McCaffrey.

718
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 1: I mean, d J. Moore is probably gonna be in

719
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 1: the flex starter conversation, right. I'm not starting in Thomas.

720
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 1: I can't start Curtis Samuel. I can't because I don't

721
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: I don't know know farther this quarterback, I mean so inexperienced.

722
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 1: I mean, look, last year he finished the season with

723
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: a completion percentage. Now he only had one attempt. He

724
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 1: completed it for ten yards in the preseason another but

725
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 1: I mean there's a big difference. So I would probably

726
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 1: be fading most of my Panthers this week. Just this

727
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: is not the right time, to be honest with you.

728
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 1: I would have faded him if Cam was under center, Yeah,

729
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,480
Speaker 1: I mean playing. That was why, you know, That's why

730
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: I went out and in our fantasy lively, I went

731
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 1: and got Austin Hooper because I just knew I couldn't

732
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: do it. I couldn't trust Ian Thomas anymore because because

733
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: the situation is bad, Giants at the Colts. Now, I

734
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 1: know the Giants still want Odell to play. Pat Shermer said,

735
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 1: they're not going to shut him down. They want to

736
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: see if you can get healthy and come back again. Um,

737
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: but if he does not play, if you can't suit

738
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: up and go, are there any pass catchers in that

739
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,879
Speaker 1: Giants offense that you like? We had been talking about

740
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 1: Sterling Shepherd, right, But because because of the of the

741
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: possibility that the targets would rise. Sterling Shepherd has far

742
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 1: far like uh, he has been far worse than than

743
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: we really believe that he would be even with O.

744
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: B J out of the mix. And you know the

745
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 1: numbers that we had looked at with O. B J

746
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 1: on the sidelines, Sterling Shepherd had seen almost all of

747
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 1: his stats rise, targets, receptions, yards, fantasy points not so

748
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,359
Speaker 1: much the last couple of weeks. I'm not going there.

749
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 1: The Colts defense is I'll just say this, because the

750
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,800
Speaker 1: Colts defense is almost always bad or average, their defense

751
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 1: is good this year. I mean they just shut out

752
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:37,280
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and that offense had been rolling. So there's

753
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: not I mean, se Kuan Evan Ingraham, I don't know

754
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: what's going on with O. B J. There are not

755
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,239
Speaker 1: a lot of Giants that I like in this game. Yeah,

756
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 1: I mean that's you know what quon just because you

757
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 1: know Kuan and that's kind of it. Because tight end

758
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: is a disaster. Yeah, I mean it's it's bad. Uh.

759
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,720
Speaker 1: So Andrew luck not great last week. The Giants defense

760
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,440
Speaker 1: to give quarterbacks has been pretty good for much of

761
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 1: the year. How do you feel is this and Andrew

762
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 1: look bounced? I'm fine with him. I'm fine with him.

763
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 1: He yeah, I mean last week he might have cost

764
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: you a chance to go to the championship. But I

765
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: do like him. The Giants defense, that's a team that's

766
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 1: not playing for anything, and I think they can be had.

767
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 1: By the way read Richards, Oh, Mr fantastic, I'm gonna

768
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 1: keep going there. You go ahead. I do like to

769
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: sack to sprinkling them in everything. How about Marlon Mack too?

770
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,680
Speaker 1: Like he went from like I am afraid to play

771
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: him because the Cowboys defense has really got against the

772
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,479
Speaker 1: run too. Yeah, I'm playing him against the For a second,

773
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: I was like, wait, I don't know a superhero named

774
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 1: Marlon Mack. I'm like, oh yeah, back, Oh no, that

775
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 1: would be right, uh coltsman. Yeah, I'm definitely starting him

776
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 1: against the Giants. Giants have been bad against the run,

777
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: so I have no fear of starting Marlon Mack this

778
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,840
Speaker 1: week Jaguars at Dolphins. So Leonard four Nett sort of

779
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: limited practice product you what his status is going to be?

780
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: I mean, do you do you take a chance and

781
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 1: put him in your lineup? Airs? The you know what outoman?

782
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: I mean last week it was David Williams getting all

783
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 1: these touches, and he I believe for Net returned to

784
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 1: kick also in that game, which was what the hell.

785
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,359
Speaker 1: He didn't have hardly any touches in the second half.

786
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,400
Speaker 1: And I'm afraid that they're gonna do the same thing.

787
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 1: And the matchup is great, I mean, but it was

788
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,880
Speaker 1: great last week too. You probably you probably have to

789
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,800
Speaker 1: flex him. You don't have to like it. By the way,

790
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: Martian Man Hunter's real name is Martian Hunter. No, I

791
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: don't know how to pronounce it. John John's okay, j

792
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 1: apostrophy O n n j O n z z. All right,

793
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: we have really gone. I'm sorry, but yeah, so you know,

794
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,959
Speaker 1: there's not a Jaguar to trust, I mean, even for Net.

795
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,800
Speaker 1: For Net is gonna be an interesting topic of conversation

796
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: in the off season, Yeah, because the talent is there,

797
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 1: and when he was actually on the field this year,

798
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 1: outside of this past week or two, he's been really good,

799
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,800
Speaker 1: I mean really good. He was giving you twenty to

800
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: a game. I think what happens with for Net next

801
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: year also depends on what the Jaguars do at quarterback.

802
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: If they go out, if they try to get say

803
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,280
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco or something like that, then maybe that changes.

804
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know. Uh, do you have

805
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 1: any confidence in Calin Blage this week? He's one of

806
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 1: my sleepers because clearly Adam Gays doesn't like Kennyan Drake.

807
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened to him. I have no

808
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 1: idea idea what went on between the two of them.

809
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:32,359
Speaker 1: But um, this is a situation where every time Drake

810
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 1: has been on the field with another running back in

811
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 1: the mix, whether it's been Gore or Bullage, Drake always

812
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 1: seems to lose the touches paddle. Oh yeah, it doesn't

813
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 1: make any sense at all. So suddenly I don't know

814
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: if I have I don't know if I have the

815
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: grave fruits to start collage. But if I'm in a

816
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: deeper league or if I'm in uh, if I'm in

817
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: a pickle, then I could potentially use him. Victor von Doom. Um,

818
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: so it is. It is a It is a situation

819
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: where I'm definitely avoiding Kenyan Drake definitely because the matchup

820
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,399
Speaker 1: is not good. The Jaggers have been good against every

821
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,440
Speaker 1: running back not named Derrick Henry this season for the

822
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 1: most part. And then you just don't know about the

823
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:16,400
Speaker 1: distribution of snaps and touches. So I almost if I

824
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: had to choose between the two, I almost want to

825
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: go with Blas just based on the track record that

826
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: we've seen with Gaice and the way that he's using

827
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake. Cayln Balage sounds like a high end fashion design,

828
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: just like you get that new Yeah, you see the

829
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,399
Speaker 1: new Caylin Blage line, Can Blage. Who are you wearing

830
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: at the Oscars? I'm wearing Caylin Balage. Um rams of Cardinals. Uh? So,

831
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,800
Speaker 1: Jared Goff, Let's play a little game of of would

832
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 1: you rather sir? With Jared? With Jared Goff? Um? Let's

833
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: see this pull up. Let's pally a good list of

834
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,720
Speaker 1: what these fantasy matchups are this week, because golf obviously

835
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 1: has disappointed. And I have this I have this dilemma

836
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 1: in in our fantasy livelue whether or not I start

837
00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:02,439
Speaker 1: Jared Goff this week? Alright, So Baker Mayfield, yep, okay, um,

838
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: let's see let's all Ben Roethlisberger against the Saints. Yep. Uh,

839
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 1: Mitchell True Whisky against the Niners whisky? Okay. Let's go

840
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 1: with Josh Allen against the Patriots. I'm going okay, dude,

841
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 1: he's spend the highest scoring quarterback combined for film teams. Man,

842
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:27,240
Speaker 1: I mean, like, no, I get it. He golf scares

843
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: me and and I hate to be in your situation

844
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: because dadny mean's average like six points in his last

845
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 1: three games. His pass raining he's like fifty one. He's

846
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 1: been awful. And Arizona's been really tough on quarterbacks on

847
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 1: their home field, really tough. Um. Alright, so let's see

848
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 1: where else. Don't give me Taylor. I'm not gonna give

849
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 1: it Taylor. He give you Kirk Cousins, though, I'll go

850
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 1: golf there. Okay, one more Marcus Mariotta. Alright, alright, but

851
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 1: it's so close, Like four weeks ago, this would have

852
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,320
Speaker 1: been it's golf all the most ridiculous exercise and fantasy

853
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 1: football history. Now that's just how it is, mantball. It's

854
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:10,919
Speaker 1: just golf all day, you know, about a month ago.

855
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 1: But now any more, not anymore, not any more. Uh

856
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,160
Speaker 1: So that being said, that, would you stream the Cardinals defense? No?

857
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 1: I the Rams defenses are really good. Play really, I

858
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 1: can't know, I can't do it. I think there's a

859
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 1: lot of like the Cowboys, the Colts. I talked about

860
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 1: the Titans being a good streamer this week. The Browns

861
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 1: are a good streamer this week. I feel like there's

862
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: a lot of more uh reliable options out there in

863
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: terms of the matchups that some of these defenses are

864
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 1: going to be facing. I like, you know, everyone, no

865
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 1: one likes the Saints. I have been writing the Saints

866
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 1: in one of my leagues for four weeks in a row.

867
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: Every week, no matter the matchup, they're putting up number

868
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,439
Speaker 1: because every week they I mean they now they're at home,

869
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 1: they do the things that you need to do to

870
00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:00,120
Speaker 1: get points from a fantasy defense. They get turnovers, it

871
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:01,879
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if they're giving up yards, if they're giving

872
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 1: up points. They do all those other things. And they're

873
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 1: playing this dealers and I get it. You know, like

874
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 1: the matchup on paper is not great, but sometimes you

875
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,320
Speaker 1: have to look a little bit beyond the matchup and

876
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 1: look at how a defense is playing. And the Saints

877
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 1: are playing ridiculous right now. I think I I tweeted

878
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:18,719
Speaker 1: out of stat yesterday. I don't know exactly what it was,

879
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,319
Speaker 1: but it was like they had given up like four

880
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: top ten quarterbacks I think in their first like six

881
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 1: or seven games, including three top two's since then, they

882
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: haven't given up one top ten. They've given up to

883
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 1: top elevens. I think it was Ryan and maybe Jamis

884
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,880
Speaker 1: Winston and that's been it. Like they've been really good.

885
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 1: Like this defense kind of transformed, uh around the mid

886
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 1: season point, and now this is a defense that, like

887
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,319
Speaker 1: I feel like you can trust in fantasy leagues, I

888
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 1: really do right right? Um, all right, Bears. So we

889
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 1: talked a little bit about you know, the would you

890
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,799
Speaker 1: rather so whitial true bisky? You're you're okay with him

891
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 1: this week? Yeah? I don't. Hey, the Saint the Niners

892
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 1: are giving up what nineteen a game to quarterbacks, and

893
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 1: I think the matchup is right. The Bears have a

894
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,320
Speaker 1: lot to play for all of a sudden, this is

895
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 1: a team that could sneak into that maybe one or

896
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 1: two spot, depending on what happens with the Rams over

897
00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks. So they have a lot

898
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: to play for, and I would, uh, I would certainly

899
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,320
Speaker 1: have faith in Drabinsky if I needed to replace it

900
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 1: Cam Newton for example, if I have, say Tom Brady

901
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: on my roster, because I'm afraid Brady might stink it

902
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 1: up against the Buffalo Bills this week, and golf is

903
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,920
Speaker 1: another one. I clearly played Drubisky over him as well.

904
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 1: Uh do you trust George Kittle or Dante Pettis in

905
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 1: a tough matchup? You gotta trust George. George Kittle is

906
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 1: like quickly becoming one of my favorite players in the NFL. Like,

907
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: he plays for the Niners, and that was a team

908
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:41,879
Speaker 1: I didn't like growing up because I'm a Cowboys fan

909
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 1: and I go back to the eighties and that was

910
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,319
Speaker 1: the big rivalry Marcus, you know it. And but he

911
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,479
Speaker 1: is like number one. He's he's a tremendous player, and

912
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 1: he's just he just seems like a fun guy and

913
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,799
Speaker 1: he loves w w E. Right, So I mean, right there,

914
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 1: I'm in with that dude like that. That's great. It

915
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:58,919
Speaker 1: was so much fun because he was trying to get

916
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 1: to a w w E paper of you after after

917
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 1: a game he was at a press conference and he

918
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 1: was basically like telling the reporters, you guys are killing me.

919
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: I'm trying to go to see you know. Uh w Wright,

920
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,320
Speaker 1: let's got these questions off. Come on, I want to

921
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 1: get out of here. Yeah. I like he made it

922
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: in time, though he tweeted on Monday. He made it

923
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:16,839
Speaker 1: in time, so it's all good. Yeah. So I like

924
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 1: Kittle Pettis. I think as a as a three flex.

925
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,319
Speaker 1: I don't know that I would start any other forty

926
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 1: niners Brita as a risk to me because of the matchup.

927
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: And um, do you believe in Robbie gold revenge game?

928
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: I think I feel like he had one, not like

929
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago when they played. Um, I

930
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,359
Speaker 1: think they might have played in Chicago, and I think

931
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 1: he kicked like five field goals, including the game winner

932
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 1: or something like that. So he definitely got his. Like

933
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 1: I don't know when it happens this week though, Uh,

934
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,280
Speaker 1: Steelers at Saints. UM. Still waiting to see what the

935
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 1: final verdict on James Connor's Stayah, it seems like he's

936
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 1: pretty doubtful. Um, So then how much do you trust

937
00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 1: Jalen SAMs against what's pretty good running defense? Yeah, and oh,

938
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 1: you know, I get it, But I'm playing them because

939
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 1: of volume. I mean seventy of the snaps. He's averaged

940
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 1: almost twenty touches of game. Since Week fourteen, which is

941
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 1: his first game replacing Connor, he has given you thirty

942
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,879
Speaker 1: five point four fantasy points in his last two games

943
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: and PPR formats, I I mean, at worst, he's a

944
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,920
Speaker 1: flex starter at worst, because what have we learned over

945
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:24,759
Speaker 1: the years, Marcus. You put a running back back there

946
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,720
Speaker 1: in the in the Steelers backfield, and the fantasy points

947
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 1: are gonna come. Well. And plus the Steelers don't They

948
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 1: don't platoon guys, they don't rotate running backs. They pick

949
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,840
Speaker 1: a guy and that is their guys. That's their guys.

950
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 1: So you know, you don't have to really worry about

951
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,279
Speaker 1: anybody else coming in and something taking some of those

952
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 1: touches away. Um. Well, the Saints offense finally come back

953
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 1: to us. I mean, we haven't seen him since Thanksgiving.

954
00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: So we thought they were gonna come back against the Bucks. No,

955
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: we didn't have gonna come back against the Panthers. No,

956
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: but here's here's like the saving grace. They're at home.

957
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,960
Speaker 1: And as much as people will talk about like how

958
00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,120
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger was bad on the road, um we she

959
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:04,319
Speaker 1: was until the season. Breeze has also got a little

960
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:08,280
Speaker 1: bit of a track record and not doing so well outdoors. Um,

961
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,360
Speaker 1: even against the Buccaneers. I mean, his last two or

962
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,520
Speaker 1: three games in Tampa Bay have been really bad. But

963
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,800
Speaker 1: back at home, you would think you would think, you

964
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: would think that this is the game where you see

965
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 1: empty and Camara although he was good last week, and

966
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 1: Drew Brees finally sort of start to wake up and

967
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 1: what what could be a high scoring game. We'll see

968
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: what happens. But I would be having my Steelers and

969
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,759
Speaker 1: my Saints in this game. Uh, it seems like it

970
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: seems it seems like this is projecting to be a

971
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:40,279
Speaker 1: pretty high scoring affair in New Orleans. Yeah, I would

972
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 1: think so, um, but who knows. But yeah, I mean,

973
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: just I know everybody's been We've been waiting on the

974
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 1: Saints offense to come back since Thanksgiving and they don't

975
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 1: have not been there. Chief's at Seahawks. So you sort

976
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 1: of talked about Spencer wearing Damien Williams a little bit

977
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: and we're still waiting to see. This is a Sunday

978
00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 1: night game. How how do you approach his backfield? You know,

979
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 1: until we have some clarity on it. So if you

980
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 1: clearly if you have Williams and where, then you're good

981
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 1: because it doesn't matter, um because you can play whoever

982
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 1: is active. Now what I do, what I do have

983
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:17,880
Speaker 1: some concern about is if Where is active, is he

984
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 1: going to come back to being the featured back, or

985
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,879
Speaker 1: is Andy Reid gonna also throw Damian Williams a few

986
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 1: touches because he looked damn good. I looked really good

987
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,319
Speaker 1: last week. So if Where is active, I mean you

988
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,279
Speaker 1: would expect a committee, right, Yeah, I think. I think

989
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 1: whatever happens, Damian Williams is still gonna get touching. Even

990
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 1: if Spencer wears back, He's going to get some touches.

991
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 1: It's just a matter of how many. You know it

992
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:41,759
Speaker 1: just it's gonna be hard. It's gonna be hard to

993
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 1: figure out it is. It's gonna be hard, That's why.

994
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 1: And I get it, Like, you know, you don't necessarily

995
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 1: want to bench Damian Williams if he's going to be

996
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: the guy, but the timing puts you in a difficult situation.

997
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:53,440
Speaker 1: So if you do have a guy like Jamal Williams

998
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:55,719
Speaker 1: and we don't know what's going on with Spencer where

999
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 1: or we do know he's going to be active for

1000
00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,399
Speaker 1: the game, you may want to err on the side

1001
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:01,320
Speaker 1: of caution and play the guy who you know is

1002
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 1: going to get the touches. So we just talked Steelers

1003
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,359
Speaker 1: Saints but a bit of a bit of news has

1004
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:09,120
Speaker 1: crossed my Twitter time. Okay, here Juju Smith Schuster had

1005
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:12,439
Speaker 1: to leave practice early with a growing and now so

1006
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 1: there we go. Oh no, that's just something to keep

1007
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 1: in mind that where did we see this? Mark Coboli,

1008
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 1: who was one of the Steelers beat writers for the

1009
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 1: Athletic Why why is this happening to us? I mean,

1010
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 1: like think about it. How many big names have we

1011
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 1: lost in the last four weeks? So so many? I mean,

1012
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:37,480
Speaker 1: that's changer. Jeez, Louise, that is a potential. Well, now

1013
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 1: you have to keep tabs on the status at Juju

1014
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 1: over the course of the next So now if he

1015
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,759
Speaker 1: doesn't play, I mean, James Washington, that's what I was

1016
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:48,800
Speaker 1: just thinking. He suddenly come into the conversation as a

1017
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:54,239
Speaker 1: as a very deep sleeper. Yeah. Man, that throws everything off.

1018
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 1: That does that things everything off? That stinks? All right?

1019
00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 1: Back to Chief Seahawks. Do we trust Doug Baldwin and

1020
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 1: what could be a back and forth game. Well, he's

1021
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 1: banged up though. He that's another dude that you're like, Okay,

1022
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,920
Speaker 1: he may go into that game with a questionable tag.

1023
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:14,400
Speaker 1: And if he goes into the game with a questionable tag.

1024
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 1: I'm not I can't trust him. I get it. He

1025
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:19,880
Speaker 1: had two touchdowns last week. Okay, wonderful. What have you

1026
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,399
Speaker 1: done the rest of the season? Not much? And I'm

1027
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 1: not going to go into that game with I have

1028
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 1: to have some sort of insurance. I mean, maybe if

1029
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:30,719
Speaker 1: you want to pick up David Moore, if you really

1030
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,120
Speaker 1: are into Doug Baldwin that much, because the matchup is good.

1031
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,399
Speaker 1: Matchup is definitely good. I mean, Lockett is the guy

1032
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: that I would play, clearly. I mean that's a no brainer.

1033
00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 1: But unless you really like Doug Baldwin, um, I'd be

1034
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:45,360
Speaker 1: looking for some alternatives. If he is, in fact, uh

1035
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 1: labeled as questionable for that game. It stinks too, because

1036
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 1: like that's there's some pretty good matchup, some good Fantasy

1037
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 1: players in that game. It's Cross Sol and Mahomes and

1038
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,880
Speaker 1: Carson and whoever the Chief's running back is going to be,

1039
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:01,000
Speaker 1: and Tyreek and and and lock It. So it's a

1040
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 1: it's a tough place to be in there if you're

1041
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: if you're a fantasy fan. There we go, uh, last

1042
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 1: game of the week Monday Night, the Broncos at the

1043
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: Raiders on Christmas Eve, and what might possibly be the

1044
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 1: raiders last ever home game in Oakland. Dude, I can't

1045
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:16,719
Speaker 1: wait to see what happens. What is going to happen

1046
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,320
Speaker 1: there where they gonna play who knows but poor a

1047
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:21,399
Speaker 1: little out of the colosseum man. It's gonna be maybe

1048
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 1: the last time. So Tim Patrick deep sleeper, I mean,

1049
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,000
Speaker 1: I mean he's getting targets. They elevate him to just

1050
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:31,799
Speaker 1: sleep a sleeper. Now, oh guy vone sleeper. It's him

1051
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,480
Speaker 1: and Hamilton's, which is odd because like everyone loved Sutton

1052
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:37,360
Speaker 1: and then Sutton kind of hadn't really been all that great.

1053
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 1: But I mean, Hamilton's is the interesting play for me

1054
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 1: there because of case Keenum's. You know, he loves to

1055
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:46,759
Speaker 1: go to the slot receiver, and the Raiders are bad

1056
00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 1: against slot receivers. I think they've given up eight touchdowns

1057
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 1: off the top of my head, uh to slot men.

1058
00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, either one of those two guys

1059
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 1: is certainly worth a roll the dice, and Patrick's been

1060
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:59,400
Speaker 1: sort of the the unsung hero there in the Broncos

1061
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,960
Speaker 1: wide receiving group with Samuel's out for the season, Sanders,

1062
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,439
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. So on the Raiders side, there's Jared Cook

1063
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:11,719
Speaker 1: and that's exactly what. That's exactly it, man. I mean like, no,

1064
00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:15,240
Speaker 1: nobody maybe Jalen Richard if you're looking for a PPR flex,

1065
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:17,640
Speaker 1: I mean Doug Martin. He burned me last week. Like

1066
00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:20,040
Speaker 1: I was on the Doug Martin bandwagon three straight weeks

1067
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:23,799
Speaker 1: with a touchdown playing the Bengals awful run defense, and

1068
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:26,719
Speaker 1: Martin gave me a lump of cold man like in

1069
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:30,879
Speaker 1: one of my leagues, like the Dynasty League, and just

1070
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 1: that one hurts. So I'm off of him and the

1071
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 1: matchup is not tremendous either. Last week I really did.

1072
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: I tried to lean on the Raiders. I thought, well,

1073
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 1: this is a week, right, it's the Bengals, like if

1074
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,240
Speaker 1: any week this is the way, and it didn't happen. Yeah,

1075
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,920
Speaker 1: it's the Raiders. The Raiders that have given me the

1076
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:51,960
Speaker 1: scroogy twice this year where I really liked one of

1077
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,560
Speaker 1: their players, like so Martin this past week, and then

1078
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:56,680
Speaker 1: the Raiders defense that'll go down and infamy for me

1079
00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 1: as one of the worst predictions I ever made. And

1080
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:01,320
Speaker 1: I said the Raiders the defense was a streamable option

1081
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,719
Speaker 1: against Nick Mullins in the Forts that one I got

1082
00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 1: destroyed for on Twitter and I, well, I ate it

1083
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 1: because if it makes you feel any better, I mean

1084
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,399
Speaker 1: I I a few years ago said the Raiders were

1085
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:15,560
Speaker 1: a sleeper defense and Nick Foles through seven touchdowns, so

1086
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:19,480
Speaker 1: I understand it happens. I feel that I totally totally

1087
00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:22,520
Speaker 1: get that. So there we go. Afs your Week sixteen slates,

1088
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 1: of course says we mentioned keep an eye on some

1089
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:27,720
Speaker 1: of the injury situations, especially now this news about Juju

1090
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:29,839
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster. That's going to be a big one as

1091
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 1: we get to Sunday something. Definitely keep tabs on that.

1092
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,359
Speaker 1: But as always, it is Week sixteen. That doesn't mean

1093
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:42,200
Speaker 1: Eddie's out of it, right, He's got a delirious picks alright.

1094
00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 1: This one's based off fellow staten islander Gus Edwards. I

1095
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:47,360
Speaker 1: have not given him a shout out yet. So I

1096
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 1: figured what better? Where Great Kills? So I lived in

1097
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:58,560
Speaker 1: I think it was the next stop trainstop over. Yeah,

1098
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 1: I lived there for a box six months dude. Wow, Yeah,

1099
00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,319
Speaker 1: I did not know that I lived on I think

1100
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:07,359
Speaker 1: it was Memphis Avenue. Yeah, Richard Avenue runs right through. Yeah.

1101
00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:08,799
Speaker 1: I used to have to take this is when I

1102
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,520
Speaker 1: worked for CBS. I would have to take I would

1103
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:14,320
Speaker 1: walk to the train station, take the train to the ferry,

1104
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,879
Speaker 1: take the ferry over to Battery Park, and then walk

1105
00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:19,840
Speaker 1: to work. Now you know why I moved to l

1106
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 1: A because instead of doing that in public transportation, and

1107
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:24,640
Speaker 1: I just have that same two and two and a

1108
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:29,239
Speaker 1: half hour stretch of traveling, but just in my car track. Anyway. Yeah,

1109
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,399
Speaker 1: I guess like words tied to high school um alum. Uh.

1110
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,000
Speaker 1: So my pick for him is that he's gonna lead

1111
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,480
Speaker 1: all running backs this week in and in points total.

1112
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 1: I know the tough matchup versus charges, a great defense there. Um.

1113
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,080
Speaker 1: I just feel like with the NFL is up and down,

1114
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 1: the Charges get a couple of big wins, everyone's riding

1115
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:48,319
Speaker 1: hid them. You just do to lose in the way

1116
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: this NFL season has been even seen to happen with

1117
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,640
Speaker 1: the Ramps and you happened with the Chiefs Charges due

1118
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 1: to lose. I think also where you've got a guy

1119
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 1: like lamar Um who's just a threat, not like obviously

1120
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 1: there's arm his legs who they're gonna scheme against that

1121
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,560
Speaker 1: he gets kind of lost in the mixed cautside words.

1122
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,760
Speaker 1: So that's my pick that he's gonna lead all Backs

1123
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 1: this weekend points versus a tough l a defense. Yeah

1124
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 1: all right, but you know what, dude, I'm I might

1125
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:17,720
Speaker 1: be biased. I'll dude. This season has been so wacky,

1126
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 1: especially down the stretch. This past week was just with

1127
00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 1: all the elite quarterbacks who absolutely just tanked. It was

1128
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:29,080
Speaker 1: it was insane, and we talked about all these injuries

1129
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:32,000
Speaker 1: and now Juju we'll see what happens with him. But

1130
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 1: it's it's been Russ Sledden in the fantasy football world

1131
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:39,600
Speaker 1: in the last three it has been this in recent memory,

1132
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:42,960
Speaker 1: has been one of the rougher playoff seasons ever. We

1133
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,839
Speaker 1: have tweets, we have to have question do we do?

1134
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:48,919
Speaker 1: So this week we have a defensive question, a quarterback question,

1135
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,560
Speaker 1: running back question, a tight end question, and someone who's

1136
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:53,960
Speaker 1: asking to make him win a back to back title.

1137
00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:57,360
Speaker 1: So I start off here with the defense question. Austin

1138
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:02,480
Speaker 1: Hurts asking Colt D or Broncos D. I probably go

1139
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:06,280
Speaker 1: Colts this week. Yeah right, I mean they've been pretty

1140
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:07,920
Speaker 1: good all years they have been in. It's a home

1141
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 1: game to the home game, like O'Dell may not be playing. Yeah,

1142
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 1: I think this is the Colts. Louise is asking us

1143
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 1: that quarterback. Should he start golf or Baker. Mayfield already

1144
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:22,480
Speaker 1: said I'll gold Baker, yeah yeah, Jake Hole come, Derrick

1145
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:25,799
Speaker 1: Henry coming off two big weeks, or the injured Melvin Gordon.

1146
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 1: I'm still I gotta go with Melvin Gordon. It guy

1147
00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 1: has been so good all season long. You know, I

1148
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:36,880
Speaker 1: get it he's coming off the injury. But you know, no, Eckler,

1149
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:39,319
Speaker 1: they got to have faith in him to be able

1150
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:41,640
Speaker 1: to carry carry the mail this week. They have. They

1151
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: did say that that last game was a Sunday now,

1152
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 1: I mean they have a lot to play for too. Sure, absolutely,

1153
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:52,839
Speaker 1: so I I'd go with Gordon. Yeah, yeah, Marcus does

1154
00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:55,279
Speaker 1: not have faith in Melvin Gordon. I just you know,

1155
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:57,440
Speaker 1: and you know, I blame Money, right, Matt Money has

1156
00:56:57,640 --> 00:56:59,279
Speaker 1: put the seed in our head that you know, if

1157
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,839
Speaker 1: if he gets out up there and something doesn't feel right,

1158
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:03,600
Speaker 1: that they'll just pull him and then go with you know,

1159
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:06,440
Speaker 1: justin Jackson. So he's planted that seed, and now he's

1160
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 1: made me nervous. I don't have that decision in any leagues. Um,

1161
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't. Why can't you play both? I mean that's like, yeah,

1162
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 1: why can't you play both? So yeah, alright, go go, go,

1163
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:20,080
Speaker 1: go moving. We have David Ramos asking a tight end question.

1164
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 1: It's a Bright and Joku or Cook Jared Jared, It's

1165
00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 1: Jared Cook. It's Jared Cook. Yeah. Um, I I would

1166
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:31,560
Speaker 1: put them in order of Cook, uh in, Joku and Break.

1167
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 1: That's the order that I would. I just want to

1168
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:35,520
Speaker 1: know what league you have? All three of them know right,

1169
00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:39,520
Speaker 1: like four personally know me. To know either that or

1170
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:41,840
Speaker 1: that person is like just blocking the hell out of

1171
00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:47,000
Speaker 1: real else talked one of his buddies, Drop one tit

1172
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:50,240
Speaker 1: and the last one at Hawaiian Radio is asking us

1173
00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:52,160
Speaker 1: to help him win back to back titles. So he

1174
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:56,920
Speaker 1: has three quick questions. Matt Ryan or Mitch Dubinski. I

1175
00:57:56,960 --> 00:58:01,760
Speaker 1: would probably go with I'm going to Ryan the Carolina

1176
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 1: their defense. Yeah, I would go Matt Ryan against the

1177
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 1: against the Carolina past defense. Uh, Doug Baldwin or Robbie

1178
00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 1: Anderson Anderson no doubt All Day and last year is

1179
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 1: a running by question. Is it Elijah McGuire, gust Edwards

1180
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 1: or Spencer Ware Elijah McGuire, That's who I'd be going with. Yeah,

1181
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:21,800
Speaker 1: because he's a guy who's least likely to split carries. Yeah,

1182
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 1: i'd probably go alive. Plus, like the the you're on

1183
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: the NFL guys are coming in and so Dan Hanss

1184
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 1: has got to be coming in here at some point.

1185
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 1: And so I can't crap on the Jets because Dan

1186
00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:33,800
Speaker 1: and I, you know, are good pals. We're both Yankees fans,

1187
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:35,640
Speaker 1: and I want to be on his good side. I

1188
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,200
Speaker 1: feel like Dan understands this situation. No, but you know what, though,

1189
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:43,040
Speaker 1: it's like where is he ros? Like I like that

1190
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:45,160
Speaker 1: there's like three Jets I liked this week there in

1191
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 1: the midst, I like McGuire, and I like Robbie Anderson

1192
00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 1: this week. You know what that means? They're not gonna stink.

1193
00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:54,640
Speaker 1: I will say that, No just is gonna yell at me.

1194
00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 1: Even as much as you know Dan Hanss is, you know,

1195
00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,919
Speaker 1: Jet Jet fan of record here than building I have watched,

1196
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 1: I've enjoyed watching no one more than Jeremy Bergman, who

1197
00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:05,000
Speaker 1: works on our news desk, who is not only a

1198
00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:08,000
Speaker 1: Jets fan but at USC a lump. So watching him

1199
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 1: in the throes of this Donald hysteria has been absolutely amazed.

1200
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 1: So he's from is he from Soca? He's from New

1201
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 1: York Actually, he's from New York as a Jets fan

1202
00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,760
Speaker 1: who ended up at USC and uh so he loves

1203
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 1: Donald obviously he loves the Jets. This has been this

1204
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 1: has been fun. Wow. Interesting. So that was that right

1205
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:28,120
Speaker 1: on this question. All right, that's it, that's it. We're done. Yeah,
