Speaker 1: So guys, Third Today Night Football Action Panthers traveling to

20
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: the Books excited for it from the fantasy side, No

21
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: doubt about that unless I have Steve Smith. Have you

22
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: looked at the numbers that Steve Smith has put up

23
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: or not put up against this team over the last

24
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: several years. I think he's a real risk tonight. How

25
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: about Mike Glennon and the fact that he has a

26
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 1: matchmate in Heaven with Vince and Jackson. I like Vince

27
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: and Jackson this matchup, that is for sure. His number

28
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 1: is much better than with Josh Freeman. And how about

29
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: the Panthers d twenty points from them last week. We'll

30
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: see if they can match that this week. For more

31
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: on this one, let's send it over to Jason and

32
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: Adam Jay. Thanks you, Bucks and Panthers right here on

33
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: NFL Network tonight at five pm, get your Week eight started.

34
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: Tricky game for fantasy owners. Gonna handle on Raik, Yeah,

35
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: there's not. It seems like it's gonna be defensive matchup

36
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: with both these teams. The Panthers have been pretty tough

37
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: unopposing offenses, so we'll see, all right, take a look

38
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: at the injury board right now. We know Doug Martin

39
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: is out, Mike j his replacement, Steve Smith, Brandon LaFell,

40
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: Greg Olsen all probable. The general health of the Panthers

41
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: as good. But again you get a lot of questions

42
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 1: from the Tampa Bay side of things, something we'll get

43
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: to in a few minutes. You never know how the

44
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: weather might impact the game in Florida. So let's welcome

45
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: in our resident meet fantasy meteorologist Jim Costick from ABC

46
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: four in Salt Lake City. The last time we saw you, Jim,

47
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: you were yelling at Lamar Miller's head shot and you

48
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: were right, big Costa call last week Lamar Miller disappointed. Hey, listen,

49
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: you can't be wrong all the time. Sometimes you just

50
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 1: got a light of fire underneath these guys. Again, I'm

51
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: going but hey, Florida is atrociously humid this time of

52
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: the year, or it. I say no, because look, this

53
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: is our latest call for It's already south and east

54
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: of Tampa, and it's not coming back. It's going down

55
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: towards Cuba. So even the clouds, you know, the bucks

56
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: would probably long wet weather and humidity to hang around,

57
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: ain't gonna happen. A matter of fact, when we take

58
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: a look at the forecast here, the clouds are going

59
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: to say see uh, and we're gonna clear things out

60
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: by game time here, so the O and six Bucks

61
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 1: can't rely on typical Florida weather to pound the ball

62
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: or anything, especially with Martin out. Nonetheless, just beautiful, gorgeous

63
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: weather here, like northeast breeze temperature in about seven degrees.

64
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: But what else is happening for this upcoming weekend that

65
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna be taking a look at. Well, cool there

66
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: is moving into parts of the northeast and midwest, so

67
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna watch the train of moisture. I know this

68
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: is only Thursday, but listen, this train of moisture is

69
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: going to continue out of the northwestern portions of Ontario

70
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: scooed into parts of the northeast. I think it stays

71
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: north of Philadelphia at the link, but maybe maybe not Foxboro.

72
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: But we got a game in London, guys, Pip, Pip,

73
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: Cheerio and the whatnot. Um like one of those guards

74
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: at Bucket and Palace. Yeah, so will it shower? Yeah,

75
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: we'll give you the low down in the next twenty

76
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: four hours. What do you blokes thinks I would even

77
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: be a guarded fucking ham palace. He could not keep

78
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: his composure long enough, he'd be fired on the first day.

79
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: You got to be the shortest job. Stay from here now, gentlemen,

80
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 1: all right, let's get to Thursday night football. Now. We'll

81
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: talk to Jim again tomorrow to get more from Buckingham Palace.

82
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: Apparently who passes the Thursday night tests. We talked about

83
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: this a lot, guys. You're safe to start under most circumstances.

84
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 1: Cam Newton, Vincent Jackson. Panthers defense also very good play tonight,

85
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: but there's question marks abound in this game, right d'angela

86
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,559
Speaker 1: Williams will start with the Panthers. Can you starting tonight?

87
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: You can't. Middle. In a perfect world, you wouldn't have

88
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 1: to start d'angela Williams because he's never really been able

89
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: to establish himself as the number one running back. We

90
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: thought he would be when Jonathan Stewart first went out,

91
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: but in most cases, you know, we there's just not

92
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: a lot of guys getting the opportunities, and that's what

93
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: you're looking for at this point in the season, guys

94
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: who are getting those opportunities. So even though he'll run

95
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: well between the one he's they'll get pulled out at

96
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 1: the goal line. So Mike Olber can go in get

97
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: the touchdown. Do it's ridiculous stands and as to Angela Williams,

98
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: owners will be left holding the bag. But in most

99
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 1: cases it's kind of started or Cam's just gonna say, oh, yeah,

100
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: this is me. I'm taking this in. Yeah, of course.

101
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: How about Steve Smith. You know what, he has played

102
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: pretty poor historically against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They have

103
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: seemed to have his number. The guy who actually plays

104
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: really well against the Buccaneers is Brandon LaFell. He had

105
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,119
Speaker 1: over a hundred and fifty yards and two games against

106
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: him last year. He scored a touchdown in his last

107
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 1: three games against the Panthers. I would bench Steve Smith.

108
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: I would start Brandon LaFell. All right, let's move on

109
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Mike James, and this

110
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: gets the start instead of Doug Martin. As we talked about,

111
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: maybe the first of what could be many for Mike James.

112
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: Can you trust him on Thursday night? Again, We're looking

113
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: for somebody who's gonna get the opportunity, and I would

114
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: start him because on these Thursday night games, especially when

115
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: you're starting a rookie quarterback, they're gonna have to run

116
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: the ball lot. They're gonna have to simplify the playbook,

117
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 1: so that means a lot of opportunities for Mike James.

118
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: Of course, it's not the best matchup, but again, six

119
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: teams on a by major running backs in a bye,

120
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: I'm starting him in one league as a flex number two.

121
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: Where you start starting him as a flex absolutely, all right,

122
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: Mike Glennon, you've been right off from Mike glenn in

123
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: the last three weeks. Are you still sticking with him tonight?

124
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: You know what, It's been a great run, Mike, but

125
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to have you sit the bench this week.

126
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: It's it's just not a good matchup. Again, they're gonna

127
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: have to simplify the offense. Don't see them passing the

128
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: ball a lot. So unfortunately, it's been fun. I've enjoyed

129
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: playing him. It's it's good to get one of those

130
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: right once in a while. I also had Josh Freeman

131
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 1: and a league last week. So when you get a

132
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: couple of these, ride you want to ride him. But

133
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to put him on the bench, all right.

134
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: How about Mike Williams. Mike Williams is a tough one

135
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: because he is just not taking advantage of his chances.

136
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: He's been battling some injuries, and I also just don't

137
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: think that he's gonna have a big game because the

138
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: Panthers defense is so tough against receivers. Timothy Right is

139
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: somebody I would look at. He seems to be the

140
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: number two guy in that offense, even though he was

141
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: bad last week, and everybody on Twitter let me know

142
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 1: about it, but I leave him on the bench. I

143
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: can't trust Mike Williams. Yeah, it's kind of difficult to

144
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: pull the trigger against, first of all, a very good

145
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: defense against the past, and the first game without Doug Martin.

146
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: When how's it gonna go? Are they gonna throw or

147
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: they're gonna run the ball board. It's kind of too

148
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: many unknowns going on Thursday night again, simplified offense. I

149
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: just don't see him being in a big part of it.

150
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a look at our projections for

151
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for Thursday night. Safe to start

152
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: Vincent Jackson, but everybody else you want to wait a bit. Look,

153
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: you see fourteen fifteen points for Glenn and though right

154
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: as you said, there's better players out there that can

155
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: give you upwards of two Fantasy points. Yeah, one of

156
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: those leagues where I have Mike Glenn and I went

157
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: out and picked up Eli Manning. He's got a great

158
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: matchup going up against the Eagles, who we've plays pretty

159
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: well historically, so I'm going with him. Ben Roethlisberger is

160
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: another guy in another league that I went and looked at,

161
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: but unfortunately was snapped aboff the waiver wire. But there's

162
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: other options out there. Look at the Pathers. We both

163
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: like the Pathers defense. They're close to being a must

164
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: start the Panthers day, absolutely, and any time you can

165
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: go up against a rookie quarterback on a short week.

166
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: We might not be given the Panthers enough credit here.

167
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: I'm looking at that projection and I'm thinking twelve points

168
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: might not be enough. Although you really like Cam Newton.

169
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: Cam is a guy we saw it happened last year

170
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: where he started out slow and he gets streaky. There's

171
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,239
Speaker 1: nobody who's streak here at Fantasy points than Cam Newton.

172
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: And this is in the middle of one of those

173
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: runs where suddenly he gets back to being at the

174
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: top of Fantasy which is where we saw a year ago.

175
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: What you're joking about it, he's not calling his number enough.

176
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: That's one of the things that I noticed that he's

177
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: not doing this season. He's not just taking those one

178
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: yard plunges, which I wish he would. All right, maybe

179
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: that starts Tonight's do it tonight if you started Cam Newton,

180
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: Hopefully it does start. Remember we'll have a complete fantasy

181
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: recap of tonight's game immediately following NFL Total Access here

182
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: on NFL Fantasy Live. Now, let's take a look at

183
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: the big headlines from across the league. Thank you, guys.

184
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: Let's get you caught up on everything you need to

185
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: know before you finish setting your lineup for a week

186
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 1: eight and we're gonna get into some of those headlines

187
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 1: right now. Falcons running back Stephen Jackson plans to play

188
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: this weekend against the Cardinals, which would be the first

189
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: time since his injury act bar that he would be back.

190
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: If he's not close to a p is he a

191
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: good start because the Cards have the seventh rush. Gee, well,

192
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: I believe that he is going to be a good

193
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 1: start to this defense to your excuse me, to your team.

194
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 1: And here's why. Because Stephen Jackson provides a certain element

195
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 1: to the run game. And remember they're gonna be a

196
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: little deficient at the passing game. Of course, we're unsure

197
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: with Roddy White, Julio Jones is out, so all of

198
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: a sudden, they've got to mix and match and try

199
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: to figure out what recipe is gonna work for them.

200
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: They're probably gonna try to go balance run fifty percent passed,

201
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: so they are going to be dedicated to the run game.

202
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: CHUCKI was Rodgers has filled in nicely though. In in

203
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: the meantime, they're moving on. In Minnesota, it's been a

204
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,199
Speaker 1: quarterback carousel. Vikings Scooby Josh Freeman is recovering from a

205
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: concussion he suffered against the Giant Sunday night. Christian Ponder

206
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 1: is likely to get the start. Babs, do you think

207
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: this is going to be good for Adrian Peterson who

208
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: had five point six points last week? Can't be any worse?

209
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 1: Can you mean? When Payton Hills scores more Fantasy points

210
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: in Adria Peterson, that was a bad night for a

211
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 1: d But this is the quarterback who was under center

212
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: last year when he went crazy had over two thousand yards,

213
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: So I think it's a good thing regardless you're starting

214
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson. Just consider last week, you know, abump in

215
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: the road. All right, Well, we mentioned a lot of

216
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: injuries and players on by this week. Let's look at

217
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: some of these quarterback changes. Guys, Jason Tamble's back, Kellen Clement,

218
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: I missed Brian Hoyer. It's like music chairs if you

219
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: ask me, I mean it might be back. Oh boy,

220
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: let's not talk about that trying to spread. All right,

221
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 1: Let's get into Payton Manning. Though he did not practice

222
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: Wednesday with an ankle injury, we all expect he'll be

223
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 1: ready to go on Sunday. He did practice today, But

224
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: are you concerned about the way he played at the

225
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: end of last week's game against the Colts at Box.

226
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: You know, it was a little concerning after he took

227
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: that huge sack. I mean it was a hillacious hit

228
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 1: down here, which actually ended up to being being a safety.

229
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: You started to see the ball go a little wobbly,

230
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: and I was concerned. Yes, he said that these guys

231
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 1: are ankle injuries, but I also saw something too with

232
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: his throwing motions, so there's some concern there. But I mean,

233
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, a percent Payton Manning

234
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: is definitely gonna play. Peyton Manning is playing on my

235
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: team and one team that's been injury played all season.

236
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: That would be the Patriots. Wide receiver Danny Amndola has

237
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: returned to practice a week and is awaiting a final

238
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: go ahead from a neurologist before hitting the playing field. Guys,

239
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: if he's in for the paths, he's in your lineup right. Yeah,

240
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 1: he is at least a three, and in the PPR

241
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 1: league he's going to be a two. This is still

242
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: a guy. Yes, we worry about the injury concerns because

243
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 1: this has sort of been one of those seasons to

244
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 1: forget so far for Danny Amndola. But Rob Gronkowski's back,

245
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: Tom Birdie, hopefully we'll start playing and getting some fantasy

246
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: points out there for his owners. I think you gotta

247
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: start a Mendola if he's active, and by the way,

248
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: he's available in a trade off bar if you're interested

249
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: where if you can just stay healthy. But Rob Donkowski

250
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: does help Danny and A Mendola's values tremendously. Six teams

251
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: on a buy. We mentioned all these injuries. It's time

252
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: to dip into that free agency pool and really work

253
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: the wire. We're gonna help everyone all show long right

254
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 1: gets set for Week eight. Still to come stardom or

255
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: sit them. Our experts help you decide which of your

256
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: bench players need to be in your starting lineup this week,

257
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: and we're helping the unluckiest NFL dot Com fantasy user

258
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: build a better line up with some lutch waiver wire

259
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: Pickupsasy live right back after this time for who's got

260
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 1: the better lineup? Presented by Head and Shoulders. Today, we

261
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: are helping one NFL dot Com fantasy user get a

262
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: better lineup, and boy does he needed. If you thought

263
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,319
Speaker 1: your fantasy season was going down the tubes, you will

264
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 1: feel a lot better after taking a look at all

265
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 1: the injured guy injured guys four guys lineup. First of all,

266
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: the guy's name is Team g Men, so he's a Giant,

267
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: so he's already having a bad football season. He drafted

268
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: Michael Vick, who can't stay in the line up. Doug

269
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,719
Speaker 1: Martin could be done for the season. David Wilson can't stay.

270
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: Branshaw has done for the year, Leo Jones has done

271
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: for the year, Cob could be done for the year.

272
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: Reggie Wayne has done for this season, Emmon Dola can't

273
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: stay healthy, Filly may not play again. These are all

274
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: the guys, and I bet you he feels like, oh man,

275
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: I'm going all the way. That was an all star team. Now,

276
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: let's take a look at the men's current lineup with

277
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: holes and try to help him out with filling it in.

278
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: He's got a lot of a lot of spots, I'm sorry.

279
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: Also owns the Ravens defense, which has a boy and

280
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 1: we get some helping g Men, we can help you

281
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,959
Speaker 1: with picking up some free agents right now. You can

282
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: take and plug right in your roster. As far as

283
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: quarterbacks go, you're okay with Michael Vick and Matt Ryan.

284
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: Michael Vick, who can't stay healthy? Dot Mac Ryan. That's

285
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: a great backup. But he's got some holes at running back.

286
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 1: Fab who can he go get right now and plug

287
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: right in there. I don't love the matchup this week.

288
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: But how about Zack Stacy. We know that he is

289
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: the guy in St. Louis now he has been the

290
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: guy who has seen the biggest workload out of that

291
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: running back corps there. He's been very productive recently. Now

292
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: he's not gonna put up huge numbers like no Sean

293
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: Marino or Adrian Peterson. But when you're looking for help

294
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: off the waiver wire, it's the players that you know

295
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: are going to see opportunities, and Stacy is going to

296
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: see opportunities. Bad matchup to s week against Seattle, But

297
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 1: you know what, guys had a bad matchup last week

298
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: against Carolina. He got an the end zone, scored double

299
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: legient fantasy points. Pick up Zack Stacy. All right, he's

300
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: got a big glaring hole at wide receiver rock bar

301
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: who can he go get? Well? You know, I like

302
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: Jared boy Kiss. I mean last week we saw Aaron

303
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: Rodgers go to Boykins ten times, he targeted ten times.

304
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: He brought in some very good fantasy numbers. But think

305
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 1: about this, He's going up against the Minnesota Vikings. You

306
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: talked about matchup. This is a great matchup. I mean,

307
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 1: he's got Josh Robinson, the kid out of U c

308
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: F that's gonna be on one side, perhaps guarding him.

309
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: I think Boykins wins this matchup. He proved himself. Aaron

310
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: Rodgers will trust him moving forward to continue to target him.

311
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: Boykins your guy, all right, now, one guy out there

312
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: fat is kind of hard to believe. He's still out

313
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: there in as many leagues as he is is Jordan Reid.

314
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: He's been fantastic over the last couple of weeks. Last

315
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: week he had a huge game. Over the last two weeks.

316
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: Only Vernon Davis has more fantasy points at the tight

317
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: end position than Jordan Read. And he's got a really

318
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: good matchup this week against the Broncos. They're giving up

319
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: an average of right around ten fantasy points per game

320
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: to tight ends, and tight ends has also been targeted

321
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: sixty six times against Denver. That's the most of any

322
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: team in the National Football League. So Jordan Read, if

323
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 1: you need a tight end, if you're worried about Jimmy Graham,

324
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: for example, pick him up. He's big, he's athletic, He's

325
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 1: got six or more targets and or four of his

326
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: last five five games. He's a big part of that offense.

327
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: Also becoming part of the big offense here a bar

328
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: part of the big offense is Ruben Randall. Well, this

329
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: guy's team name is g Men, so he knows that

330
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: he knows his name brand wide receivers and how Keen

331
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: Knicks and Victor Cruz, you know, haven't really been there

332
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: all together. But the guy that's really stepped up and

333
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: mostly how Keen Knicks in that in that group there,

334
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: but has been Ruben Randall. Rubert Randall, remember what he

335
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 1: did in Week five against the Philadelphia Eagles. He's going

336
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: up against them again. He had thirteen targets and twenty

337
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: one points. I think he's gonna do that again. Ruber

338
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: Randall is a fine pick up there right. So now

339
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: suddenly after remaking g men's line up with waiver wire editions,

340
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: it doesn't look that bad and you have a lot

341
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: of guys fabs that we like with opportunity. Granted, Hakim

342
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: Knicks hasn't had a great recent a great history against

343
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: the Philadelphi Eagles, just two total touchdowns, but as Akbar said,

344
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 1: he had that big last game. They played Saints defense

345
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: against Buffalo, Stealer's defense against the Oakland Raiders. A couple

346
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: of defenses that are out there that suddenly he look

347
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 1: at this line up and say, at least you have

348
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: the opportunity pretty good. And I would take this as

349
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: a challenge with all those injuries. I would just try

350
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: to put together the best lineup I could every single

351
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: week out the waiver wire and try and be competitive.

352
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: You know it's bad too. If he's a Giants fan,

353
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: he's probably a Yankees fan and the rent Socks are

354
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: gonna win the World Series. And that's that's making Let

355
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: me say something. It gets better. Just stay calm, pick

356
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: up those guys we told you, and you'll be fine.

357
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: He'll be fine. And let me say this, if anyone

358
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: knows GM and knows who he is, knows his whereabouts,

359
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: please given contact us so we can help. And we

360
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: need you to help us. Do all the hotline so

00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: we can, you know, talk him off with number, or

362
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: you can call my watch to you can call that,

363
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: I'll pick up. I'm sorry, he's like secret age and

364
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: eight six over here coming up. Warner joins the show.

365
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 1: Which running back that he picked up this week? And

366
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: why does he believe he'll be a good start in

367
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: week eight? He'll tell you and we'll Colin Kaepernick run

368
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 1: through the Jaguars in London. Kurt tells us what to

369
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,359
Speaker 1: expect from Kaepernick and the rest of the league's running quarterbacks.

370
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: That's next. Warren Sapp was a superstar talent who silos

371
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: his critics and became a legend. Warren sat a football

372
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:06,919
Speaker 1: life Tuesday at nine pm Eastern only on NFL Network. Now, Aaron,

373
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: it is my quarterback, and he's just usually he's guaranteed

374
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 1: to get me about thirty. I think first week he

375
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: got me forty five points. Struggled one week. Um, but

376
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:20,199
Speaker 1: he's he's been good. Um it's you know, I've had

377
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: a mondola. He's been hurt, you know, I mean running backs. Basically,

378
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: I sucked to be honest with you, oh Man. From

379
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,360
Speaker 1: one future Hall of Fame quarterback who plays fantasy football

380
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 1: to another. Pleasure to join Kurt Warner coming up on

381
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live. Kurt, thanks for coming on the show

382
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: with us. Man oh Man, my pleasure. Michael. Now, when

383
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 1: you and I first met, you can admit it, you

384
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: were not a fan of fantasy football. Now you play,

385
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: I will admit it. Yeah, I was not a fan

386
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: at all. You know, there's certain things that, as you

387
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 1: know we've talked about, I'm not a huge fan of

388
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: because I think it can change the way you watch

389
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 1: the game. But I think the great thing about fantasy

390
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 1: football is it engages people that maybe massive fans, and

391
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: they become passionate fans for our game, and it makes

392
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 1: them follow and watch along and just builds the popularity

393
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 1: of our sport. And so you can't deny that part

394
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 1: of it. And I think that's the reason why I

395
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: enjoy doing so much with my kids. All Right. I

396
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 1: love the fact that you love fantasy football. But I

397
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 1: know there's one thing in particular that you hate about

398
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: fantasy football. What is that? Well, obviously, uh it's the

399
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: garbage points. You know. What I hate is that you know,

400
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 1: you might be competing against somebody and your your neck

401
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: and neck, and then all of a sudden their team

402
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: falls behind, you know, or a couple of players on

403
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: their team fall behind, and so they end up throwing

404
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 1: the ball fifty five times when your quarterback throws it

405
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: twenty times. There there ought to be some you know,

406
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: some kind of point valuation based on the number of

407
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 1: attempts or something, because I just watched my teams just

408
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: go down and down and down watching. Uh, you know

409
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: players get garbage time points. Yeah, garbage time for it's there.

410
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: They're they're just as good as the real points of

411
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: fantasy football. Right now, let's take a look at your

412
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 1: team in the Warner Family lead. Now, you made some

413
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 1: great moves. You've got no Sean Marino, and does Brian

414
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: and Brandon Marshall chiefs defense. They've all been fantastic. Now,

415
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: Trent Richardson is one of your starting running backs. He's

416
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,479
Speaker 1: on a by this week. So who did you pick up?

417
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: You know? I actually just went and looked earlier today

418
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: to see who was out there in the twelve team league.

419
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: Not a lot of players out there, but you know,

420
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 1: watching the film of last week with with Pittsburgh, I

421
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: thought lady On Bell played really well and he's starting

422
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: to get more touches as he's getting healthier and getting

423
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,679
Speaker 1: more integrated into the offense. So I picked him up

424
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 1: for this week. I thought about Zach Stacy from St. Louis,

425
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: but no one that they're playing against the Seahawks. I

426
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,639
Speaker 1: decided to pass on that one. So I've got no

427
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: Sean and Levy on Bell going this week. Now. Tony

428
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: Romo is one of your three quarterbacks that you have

429
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,959
Speaker 1: on this fantasy team. Talk about what you think he's

430
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 1: gonna do this weekend in Detroit. Could be a high

431
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 1: scoring game. Well it could be, but I really have

432
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 1: no idea what Tony Romo. You know, ironically, I've had

433
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers I've had Tony Romo and it seems like

434
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: every time I picked him, it's when they have one

435
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,640
Speaker 1: of their lesser games. We know what they've done. I mean,

436
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: both of them explode it at different times this year.

437
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: It just seems that I haven't chosen them the right time.

438
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: But with Philip on to buy, I definitely am going

439
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 1: for Romo, And like you said, it could be a shootout.

440
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,919
Speaker 1: You know, the lines are gonna throw the football and

441
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: score some points. So hopefully that up bode well for

442
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 1: my fantasy team. Let's talk about your former teammate Larry Fitzgerald. Now,

443
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: this season hasn't started off the best for him from

444
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: a statistical perspective. Do you think he turns it around

445
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: and becomes an elite fantasy wide receiver again. Well, I

446
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: think it's hard to say right now. I mean, Larry

447
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: has been battling some hamstring issues first and foremost, so

448
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 1: I think he's been slowed by that. You've got a

449
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,959
Speaker 1: new system, uh, you know, they're moving Larry around. I

450
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: really feel like he's not real comfortable inside and even

451
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: if he's catching balls on the inside, it's not those

452
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 1: big balls down the field, the big touchdown balls that

453
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: we've become used to and obviously which are so important

454
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: fantasy football. So um, Unfortunately, I think it's gonna take

455
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 1: some time before he gets back to a level that

456
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,959
Speaker 1: he was at a couple of years ago in fantasy points.

457
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: So the hammy is definitely his biggest obstacle right now. Well,

458
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I definitely think it's a obstacle right now,

459
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 1: but I think just getting comfortable within this offense, getting

460
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer comfortable to be able to get him the ball,

461
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 1: I think those are other issues that they're facing. So

462
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: you couple all those things together, and I just don't

463
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 1: think he's a guy that that you start right now

464
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 1: expecting big points. Now, back in your day, you were

465
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 1: a phenomenal pocket passer, fantasy superstar. But there's been a

466
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: lot of mobile quarterbacks to have moved into the National

467
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 1: Football League. In fact, Robert Griffin the third and Colin Kaepernick,

468
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 1: they both started off kind of slowly this season, inconsistent,

469
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 1: but now we're seeing them run the football a little

470
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: bit more, which really increases their fantasy value. Do you

471
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: think the Niners and the Redskins respectively will continue to

472
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 1: let these guys run from here on? In? I think

473
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 1: what they've realized is that a huge part of their game,

474
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: a huge part of the success that they had and

475
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: the team's had last year was based off of that.

476
00:21:57,960 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: And I think early in the year, you know, you

477
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,400
Speaker 1: had the worries of you know, the whole NFL thing

478
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: and allowing players to hit quarterbacks in those option read

479
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,959
Speaker 1: type sets. I think teams were worried about that, But

480
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: I think what they realized is by not allowing their

481
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: quarterbacks to do that and get into the game and

482
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 1: kind of change the complexion of the game with their legs,

483
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,920
Speaker 1: they weren't nearly as effective. And so I think you're

484
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 1: going to see more of it. I think you're going

485
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 1: to say, hey, we gotta go back to doing what

486
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 1: these guys do best and allow them to play football

487
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: the way they've always played football. So I do think

488
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: you're going to see these guys have more touches, have

489
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 1: more opportunities to run the football and make plays with

490
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 1: their legs. Alright, hey man, we are really appreciative of

491
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: you being on the show. And by the way, you've

492
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 1: won what five games in a row in the Family

493
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: League and your boys are the only ones who have

494
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: beaten you. Is that is that the truth that is true.

495
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: I lost my first two to my boys. They both

496
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 1: scored over two points against me in weeks one and two,

497
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: and then I have ripped off five straight to be

498
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: at the top of the league right now. So so

499
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: I'm feeling pretty confident right now. All right, man, well, hey,

500
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: one not of two ain't bad, and you are Fantasy

501
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 1: football champion in mys Kurt Warner, thank you for joining

502
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: us here on NFL Fantasy Live. All right, thanks a

503
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 1: lot of How do you think he trades with his kids? Listen,

504
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 1: if you want to go on Friday night, you're gonna

505
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: give me Adrian Peterson little Black a lot of leverage. Now,

506
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 1: one of the things we saw him talking about mobile quarterbacks.

507
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 1: Are they going to continue to run the football? But

508
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: a big topic this year, right what do you think

509
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to keep running the football? Because you

510
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: have to do what these guys do best. You can't

511
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:25,879
Speaker 1: play scared. That's the one thing that I see is

512
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: that when you start playing scared a little bit, it

513
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: doesn't work out. And the Redskins have struggled with that.

514
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 1: And now that r G three is starting to run

515
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 1: a little bit more, it's no surprise, they're starting to win. Yeah,

516
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: And I think the key there was going back to

517
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: what they do best. And I think oftentimes what you'll

518
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: see in quarterbacks or coaches is that they want to

519
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,160
Speaker 1: get them playing like the traditional style, and that's throwing

520
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 1: the ball. You see that in Colin Kaeperney. That's a

521
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: guy that I'm really in love with right now because

522
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 1: Jim Harball is letting him get back to what he

523
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: does best, and that's making plays with his feet. And

524
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: they will continue that all throughout the season. It seemed

525
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: like the forty Niners out smarter themselves. They did they

526
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: have to. I mean, did you not see the playoffs

527
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: or not? You got the Super Bowl? Running the football?

528
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 1: Why would you sign? And it's not like he's a

529
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: frail guy. I get know. Maybe a little bit with

530
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: r G three, they might be a little bit concerned

531
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 1: he's coming off an injury. He's not a big Colin

532
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: Kaepernick is a huge muscles he showed he showcases in

533
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 1: the magazine him. He's got some muzzy he can't handle.

534
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: He's good, all right, So go out and get Colin

535
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 1: Kaepernick if he's available in your league. If someone's a

536
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: little upset with him. Coming up, we're revealing the winner

00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: unveiling two of our mid season Fantasy Awards. This is

548
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live. Guys. Halloween is a week away and

549
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: things are getting a lead through spooky and Fantasy World.

550
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: Scared blah blah blah. Some of the league's talk performers

551
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: from the first few weeks of the season seemed to

552
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: have just vanished. And which of these fantasy ghosts will

553
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 1: return to the living and which will haunt your bench

554
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,239
Speaker 1: for the rest of the season. These are guys who

555
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: were great for a while and then just disappeared. First

556
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: up Victor Cruz, Michael Fabiano, blah blah blah. Do I

557
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 1: have to do my best? That's an Italian. I'm gonna

558
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: have a Catalonian of Victor crule. I think Cruise and

559
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 1: scaring the heck out of my fantasy to you? Does

560
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 1: he ever come back? I think he does. He's too

561
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: good not to start producing good numbers, and it could

562
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: be as soon as this week against the Eagles. No

563
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: team has allowed more fantasy points to wide receivers then Philadelphia.

564
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 1: And at some point the Giants are too good. They've

565
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: got to turn it around offensively, and Victor Cruz will

566
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: be the main beneficiary. Because you want to talk about

567
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 1: a guy who's disappeared, how about a key Knicks. He's

568
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 1: like one of the walking dead at this point. About

569
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,880
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace, the fantasy points are coming from inside the house.

570
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: They're coming from inside the house. Does he reappear? Bark?

571
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: I see dead people, and I don't think I see

572
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace. Who's me? I'm gonna tell you right now.

573
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: I mean, you think about Ryan Tannehill targeting Mike Wallace

574
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of time but he's put up very

575
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: mediocre numbers. And you're talking about a guy who's supposed

576
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 1: to be your first number or your number one wide receiver,

577
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: and he hasn't been that guy. I mean, you look

578
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: at this game coming against Buffalo and this is a

579
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: very weak team, and he gave you about eight points.

580
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: Coming in going against the Patriots. I think they swallow him.

581
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 1: He's done. Blaw Powell is the guy in the horror

582
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: movie who told all the jokes in the beginning and

583
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: then said, yeah, I'm gonna go check the lights, and

584
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 1: then you find them like at the end of the movie,

585
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 1: and he's dead. Blaw Powell was terrific early in the

586
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,479
Speaker 1: season for the Jets when Chris Ivory was injured they

587
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: were waiting for Mike Goodson to come back. He got

588
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 1: six carries a game. He was great. But now look

589
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,679
Speaker 1: at what happened a week ago. The law Powell just

590
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 1: had a couple of touches. Three straight weeks now of

591
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: under five Fantasy points, Chris Ivory thirty four carries. The

592
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: offense is now going towards Chris Ivory and away from

593
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 1: Balal Powell. If you had Balal Powell, hopefully you got

594
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,360
Speaker 1: rid of him. If not, you're kind of stuck because

595
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 1: it's Ivory's offense. Now, how about Lamar Miller of Michael Fabiaci.

596
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 1: I can't do it because all my impersonation sound like

597
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: the Godfather because I'm it was Italian and the Godfather

598
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: and it was a Halloween. I will tell you this.

599
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 1: I apologize to fantasy owners out there because I really

600
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: thought Lamar Miller was gonna be a much better running

601
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: back than he's been. I was dead wrong about Lamar Miller.

602
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: He actually gets on the field and plays well, but

603
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 1: he doesn't get enough carries to perform for fantasy owners.

604
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 1: He has been scary bad this season, and at this

605
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: point I've seen him dropped in some fantasy leagues. I

606
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: like that. That's like Jaws music in the background there. Well,

607
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 1: you can probably gobble up about as many fantasy points

608
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: as Lamar Miller is going to have the rest of

609
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 1: the season because he has been a huge disappointment. I

610
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 1: don't see him coming back the Land of the Living

611
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: Jason Smith. How about Josh gordonock bar blah. He you

612
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 1: know was disappearing. Wasn't there in the first two games?

613
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: Then he was there? Was terrific, and now he hasn't

614
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,959
Speaker 1: been anywhere in the last couple of Well, yeah, that's right,

615
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: because we've seen his fantasy production decrease in the last

616
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: two weeks. I think for Josh Gordon, it's gonna be

617
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: they're all gonna laugh at you. They're all gonna laugh

618
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: at you, just like Carrie. I think he goes away

619
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,679
Speaker 1: because now all of a sudden, you bring in Jason

620
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 1: Campbell is gonna be the quarterback. And what does Jason

621
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: Campbell like to do when he gets into trouble and

622
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: protection breaks down, He's gonna start to run. You're gonna

623
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 1: see his production continue to go down. I think he's

624
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: another guy that disappears on you and Jason puts on

625
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: the hockey mask and he absolutely kills your fantasy team, right, Yeah,

626
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: that like Jason X, like when they killed people in

627
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: outer space. Did you see that one. I think that

628
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: was when he went to Manhattan. I think that he

629
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: was out space, he was. I think he was actually

630
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: in gravity too. All right, So if you need to exercise,

631
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 1: exercise see those players from your starting lineup. It stands

632
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: up with a Molly Caraman Adam Reich with some great

633
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,479
Speaker 1: week a pickups. Blah blah blah. How am I supposed

634
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: to top that? Blah blah blah. I want to do that.

635
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 1: Joey Bishop just put the coat over the arm and

636
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 1: said what they said goes double for me. I'm with you.

637
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: They need to go work on Halloween costumes for next week.

638
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: I think we should all dress up. Absolutely, we're on it. Meanwhile,

639
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: let's get to the top ten most added players on

640
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com this week and taking a look at

641
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: this list, Adam, you know who stands at Roy Hallo?

642
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: He certainly earned a bigger role in that Skins offense.

643
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: Has he earned it? Or has this become personal between

644
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: Mike Shanahan and me? Because last week I said Freddy

645
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 1: Morris was going to come on and have a monster week,

646
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: and what happens. Roy Hallo gets three touchdowns. Shannahan aganan indeed,

647
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: But as you see right there, he scored at least

648
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 1: seven points in three consecutive games. So this isn't a

649
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: guy that you can ignore. And plus he's got a

650
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: great matchup going up against the Denver Broncos prove a

651
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: lot a lot of fantasy points to running backs this season,

652
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: So when you're in these desperate times with six teams

653
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 1: on a bike, especially a lot of number one running

654
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: backs on a by pick him up and play him

655
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: this week. Desperate times, desperate measures. You know who hasn't

656
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: been desperate? Terrence Williams. Tony Romo said, he's improved as

657
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: much as anybody in the six months he's been here. Yeah,

658
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: he's been fantastic. We were on him about a month

659
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: ago when Miles Austin first went down. We said go

660
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: ahead and start him, and he played well, and then

661
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 1: Myles Austin came back and it still didn't eat into

662
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: his production. He has clearly established himself as the number

663
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: two wide receiver in Dallas, and he's going to be

664
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: for quite some time now. He is the guy right

665
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 1: after Dez Bryant that Tony Romo is looking for. So again,

666
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: pick him up playing Alway's ahead of the pack. Who

667
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 1: else is available? You ask, we shall tell you, ask,

668
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: and you shall receive. Adam ranked the top five waiver

669
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: targets that are available in se or more of leagues.

670
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: We've got a couple of rooks on this list, but

671
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: one guy I want to zone in on here out

672
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: of Oklahoma, New Orleans wide receiver Kenny Stills had his

673
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: first NFL touchdown Sunday. He did against the New England Patriots.

674
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 1: And when you look at the waiver wire right now,

675
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of options. Yes, it's Bellatricks And

676
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 1: the thing is is that there's six teams on a buy.

677
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: Had Reggie Wayne, he's hurt. I wouldn't picked up Kenny

678
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: Stills now. I know. His game is very simple. He

679
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: runs deep, Drew Brees, throws in the ball, hopefully catches

680
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: a touchdown. It's very simple, I understand. But you know what,

681
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: you don't have a lot of options out there. I

682
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 1: feel like I'm donning the coat like Dr Frankenstein, and

683
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: I'm trying to make a fantasy monster. He could give

684
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: you that home run potential. You're dropping fantasy knowledge. My

685
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: friend Lance Moore is also back this week as well.

686
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: You mentioned Reggie Wayne. He's obviously on the I R.

687
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: But they still have hay Bay in Hilton. But you

688
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 1: have one that's even deeper, a really sneaky good guy here,

689
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: and that is Lavon Brazil. Yeah. I like him better.

690
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: I like his upside more than d hb Yeah, d

691
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: H exactly, that's a d H blah blah blah. That's

692
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: all we need to know. We've seen his act year

693
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: in year out. He's very fast, he drops the ball,

694
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 1: he'll be good for a couple of runs. He's the guy.

695
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: He's exciting. You know the name. He's got a cool nickname,

696
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: d HB. He sounds like he should be better. But

697
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: Brazil is a guy you want to know. He is

698
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: on a buy this week. But but that's good stuff

699
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 1: for you there. You're he's ahead of the times. We'll

700
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 1: I'll be talking about him in a few weeks as

701
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy liberals on the votes are in and we're

702

Speaker 1: continuing to hand out our mid season fantasy awards. We're

705
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 1: coming up. Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live. It's time

706
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: now for our Week eight Sneaky Good Perfect Challenge place

707
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 1: to help you with a cool million dollars. We'll take that, right, Guys.

708
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: All you have to do is set your lineup of

709
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: the players you think that will rock up the most

710
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: fantasy points for each week. And if you don't get

711
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: the full roster, crrec this week, No worries. It resets

712
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: next week and you get another chance at the million dollars.

713
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: Or G three may not be the top of most

714
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: people's list, but Adam, you're highing him. He's on. He's

715
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: one of my I don't like the inference that this

716
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 1: is a sneaky play. R G three has been fantastic

717
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks, and it's what we

718
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,560
Speaker 1: talked about earlier in the show, talking about getting back

719
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: to running the football, which he's done so well. If

720
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: you look at the last couple of games, he's rushed

721
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: for a hundred and fifty five yards. He's being more

722
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: comfortable with that. Need you know, we look, we saw

723
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 1: it last year at Adrian Peters and he started to

724
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 1: get really comfortable coming back from his knee injury about

725
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 1: midway through the season, which is where Argie three is

726
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 1: right now. So this is a guy that I'm gonna play.

727
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:07,959
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play on my perfect challenging I don't care

728
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 1: who it was. He's my number one guy. Good. I

729
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: need him to play well this week as well. Now,

730
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: fas Eddie Lacy, the Packers should continue to lean heavily

731
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: on him this week as well. Yeah, Eddie Lacey has

732
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: been fantastic and he's seeing a lot of carries twenty

733
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 1: two or more in three straight games. He's playing the

734
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: Vikings this week. They have allowed the most fantasy points

735
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: to running backs this season. And you know how I

736
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 1: know that. Did you see what Peyton Hillis did. Hayton

737
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: Hills was eating Dorito's a weekend last week? You scored

738
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 1: fourteen fantasy points against the Vikings. I love Eddie Lacey

739
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: and moving on here, I'm sensing a theme. Jordy Nelson.

740
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 1: He should have a good game also against Minnesota. It's

741
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: the double pe plethora of Packers. You always, whenever you're

742
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: putting together your perfect challenge lineup, always put a lot

743
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 1: of Packers out there. And Jordy Nelson is a great

744
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: guy to play this week. He has a fantastic You know,

745
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 1: he scored a touchdown his last three games against the

746
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. They will they a torch him through the air.

747
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: This is a great pluck. Any Lacy maybe a top

748
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: ten running back by the end of the season. We'll

749
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: see though, And they also the Packers have an easy

750
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: schedule the rest of the way as well. All right,

751
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: Tony Gonzalez will he bounced back he had. He had

752
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: a tough week last week, but that Cardinals defense has

753
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,880
Speaker 1: struggled against tight ends. Yeah, no team in the National

754
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: Football League has a lot more fantasy points at tight ends.

755
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,800
Speaker 1: Tony Gonzalez should see a lot of targets. Remember no

756
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: Julio Jones, Righty White is banged. Uh. This Arizona defense

757
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:31,479
Speaker 1: again not good against the tight end. Tony Gonzalez will

758
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 1: post top five numbers at the position this weekend, and

759
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: he is a very strong play to be number one.

760
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 1: It's tough when you got guys like Rock Gronkowski out there,

761
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: but he's not sneaky Gonzalez after a bad week last week,

762
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 1: sneaky hall of sneaky. With the Lambeau leap here, I

763
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 1: don't know if it's sneaky at this point. And the

764
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 1: Packers defense because they're playing Minnesota. Of course, again the

765
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,280
Speaker 1: two packer minimum. At least you gotta have two Packers

766
00:34:58,280 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: in your lineup and a going up against them in

767
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,879
Speaker 1: sort of Vikings. The quarterback position for the Vikings has

768
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 1: been miserable, So no matter who's playing, you've got you've

769
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: got a great chance for interceptions for pick sixes for

770
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 1: all that good stuff. So I like the Packers, Yes,

771
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: go Paco. All right, let's check out this line up here.

772
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: And again you don't want to go all talk with this.

773
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 1: You can reset it every week. You need to get

774
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 1: sneaky good and that's what we're doing here, Henry. That's

775
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,840
Speaker 1: a nice Giants earlier this season had eighteen Fantasy points.

776
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,759
Speaker 1: You called out. Yeah, it was a very nice pick

777
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 1: by you. Where Sea Backs a nice little nugget you

778
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 1: gotta have. Seback is not even in the top twenty pong.

779
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: Just like saying Seas, we're doppelgangers. That's why good stuff. Guys,

Speaker 1: Matt Prater and his seventy six Fantasy points most among kickers,

798
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: and Fred Jackson boy eight. Every guy is your boy,

799
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: keep saying that ninth among running backs. Yet you want

800
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 1: to trade him. You got him on the trading block,

801
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 1: Fad Jacks. But this guy right here wouldn't even give

802
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 1: me Christ Johnson, you wouldn't even take you. All right,

803
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 1: all right, the oscars, there's no there. The award, we

804
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 1: give it away. Here we go, the Fantasy Unsung Hero

805
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: of the mid Season, and award is a word he little.

806
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 1: This is gonna be the Chiefs defense. That's very well deserved.

807
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: Chiefs defense. We were very high on them going into

808
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,160
Speaker 1: the season, and they have rewarded us with all these

809
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 1: fantasy quints. Yeah, this is like the Bears from last year.

810
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 1: The Chief's defense right now would be the eighth rated quarterback,

811
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 1: the second rated running back, the highest scoring wide receiver

812
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 1: and tight end based on Fantasy points. And I'll tell

813
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you why. Because on every single level,

814
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: from the defensive front to the linebacker to the secondary,

815
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: their solid Tom Bahalid Ontario Pole. Those guys are dominating

816
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: the front line. And then you look at Barry. I

817
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: mean he can play the run. He can, He's got

818
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: very good coverage skills. I like this defense a lot.

819
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,240
Speaker 1: I should have picked them in staid of Stephen Jackson

820
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: and our experts. And remember they had that week three

821
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 1: Thursday night game and they were great. First everybody how

822
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 1: many people dropped him and said in one game, all right,

823
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,239
Speaker 1: I did. I was one of those guys, all right.

824
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,160
Speaker 1: Moving on to our next category, this is a to

825
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 1: bargain nominees. They are DeShawn Jackson one Fantasy points this season,

826
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: tied for third among wide receivers. No, Sean Marino has

827
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: gone from the scrappy to being fourth among running backs

828
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 1: with nearly fantasy points. And Jordan Cameron, who came out

829

Speaker 1: Morris was great last year, No one saw coming same

841
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: with no Sean. Anybody that knows me knows that I'm

842
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 1: like Michelle Obama. I like to shop at Target and

843
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 1: you can buy very good deals. In fact, a lot

844

Speaker 1: this award are. Now, you would think, okay, Peyton is

852
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 1: going to run away with this because of how good

853
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 1: he is. But you look at a guy like Jimmy Graham,

854
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: who really we knew he was the best tight end

855
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 1: in football, but look how good he is from where

856
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 1: you drafted him. Jamal Charles thirty three Fantasy points. Again,

861
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: the final nine the of it, Hot root, hot root hot.

862
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 1: What does Peyton says? Hey, this big one is uh? Alright?

863
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,280
Speaker 1: First up, who would you play? Would you play Lamar

864
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: Miller against the Patriots this week? Hawk Bark? Who would

865
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 1: you do? You know what? I'm gonna actually stay away

866
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 1: from Lamar Miller against the Patriot That defense is pretty good.

867
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 1: Breaks my heart because he broke the hearts of a

868
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 1: lot of fantasy owners like me. I am saying avoid him.

869
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,240
Speaker 1: I say, bencham and go see where the Millers theaters

870
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: right now. Nobody happier, Yes, much happier. All right, Justin

871
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,399
Speaker 1: Blackman against the Niners. It's a tough matchup, but I'm

872
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: gonna start Justin Blackman because he is a number one receiver.

873
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: There's six teams on a buy, not a lot of

874
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 1: options out there, so I'm starting start chips and fishing.

875
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 1: Start Justin black Yeah. I mean, look, you don't have

876
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 1: those options played Justin blackly, Yeah, Locker went for three

877
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:43,920
Speaker 1: hundred yards against the Niners. You can certainly play. And

878
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,680
Speaker 1: Stephen Ridley against the Dolphins. You know, I like Stephen

879
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,440
Speaker 1: really against the Dolphins. I'm gonna go play him, Oh, definitely,

880
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,959
Speaker 1: playing three touchdowns in his last two games. Dolphins aren't

881
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 1: good against the run. Certainly start Stephen Ridley, all right.

882
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger against the Raiders. This is a steaky play,

883
00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,839
Speaker 1: but his last couple of games against the Raiders, he's

884
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 1: really torch them. I would start him. Yeah, he has

885
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,320
Speaker 1: really had a lot of success. Eight touchdowns in his

886
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: last two games against the Silver and Black with no turn.

887
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 1: Very good play Big Bens on Fire go with yeah,

888
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:12,920
Speaker 1: play him in my league of record, because in my

889
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 1: other league I couldn't get him, so I had started

890
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: with Carson Palmer Stevie Johnson against the Saints. So you're

891
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 1: starting him, you know what, I'm gonna stay away from

892
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: this or I think Rob Ryan's defense is playing on

893
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: fire right now, and I know that the fact that

894
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 1: they've got quarterback issues. I'm going away from Stevie Johnson.

895
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: I don't like to match up on Stevie Johnson. The

896
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 1: Seats defense is very legit. There're sneaky play this week too,

897
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: But ben Stevie Johnson, I guess that was the question

898
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 1: and saying YEA and Saints d a great defense. You

899
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,720
Speaker 1: can start up next on NFL Network, Thursday Night Football

900
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,200
