Speaker 2: Well, that's a wrap for Week twelve. Hit Mike up

Speaker 2: at Swollen Dom. You can find me at Dan Byer

00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 2: on Fox and get our executive producer, Ian Roddy at

12
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:46,480
Speaker 2: Ian Roddy underscore over three for us this week into

13
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 2: including two heartbreakers for us here on the show. Not

14
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: that you care about our fantasy teams, but we called it, Mike.

15
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 2: On our last episode, the odds makers had the over

16
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 2: under for the Niners and Panthers at forty and there's.

17
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 3: No way we thought it was even gonna get close

18
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:04,639
Speaker 3: to that, and it didn't.

19
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 2: On Monday Night, our final game of week twelve, Christian

20
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 2: McCaffrey gets in the end zone. But for those of

21
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 2: us who had some skin in the game at the

22
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 2: end of the week. It went for not because of

23
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 2: that low scoring affair.

24
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you get that ISO game, you get excited, you

25
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,479
Speaker 4: have that great opening drive from the forty nine ers

26
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 4: and down at bam.

27
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

28
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 4: Like then brock Perdy throws three interceptions. Bryce Young with

29
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 4: the inexplicable interception. Canalis tried to explain that away, but

30
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 4: not like you're playing anybody outside of Tea McMillan and

31
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 4: ric O'Donnell, Ricodowndle six carries, really six carries in a game. Yeah,

32
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 4: four catches for thirty six yards. So you got a

33
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 4: little savor there to at least get you to a

34
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 4: double digit in PPR leagues. Right, if we're talking about

35
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 4: desperate modes, McCaffrey finishes with thirty one touches. They're gonna

36
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 4: break him in half before this is all said and done.

37
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 4: Juwan Jennings while not getting punched and the junk had

38
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 4: five for forty one in the score.

39
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 5: But yeah, it was. It was one of the like

40
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 5: looking at the over under and the trend in.

41
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 4: A lot of these these late night affairs has been

42
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 4: big first halves and they're looking at the over under

43
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 4: and getting excited and then nothing happens in the second half.

44
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 4: We've had a number of those games the last couple

45
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 4: of weeks, so I'm like, maybe there's some life. So

46
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 4: we get a couple of touchdowns in the third court,

47
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 4: I'm like, here we go, Nah, three points in the

48
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 4: fourth and that's it. Twenty to nine year final and

49
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,839
Speaker 4: and a lot of hand ringing over what the hell

50
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 4: did I just watch?

51
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 2: Well, I think that the same one could be said

52
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 2: for what we saw on Sunday night as well, with

53
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 2: the Buccaneers and then no show and the Rams dominance

54
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 2: and now you got Baker Mayfield's injury.

55
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 3: To deal with.

56
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: It's it's the close games in fantasy are are something else.

57
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,839
Speaker 2: But it's funny on how it comes down to everybody.

58
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: In Ian's game on Monday Night, he said, I just

59
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,519
Speaker 2: needed a little bit more from Christian McCaffrey.

60
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: I needed just a little bit.

61
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 2: More from Brock Purty or less when it comes to

62
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 2: the interceptions, or from Juwan Jennings. I'm sure someone need

63
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 2: to just a little bit more from Rico Doddell. But

64
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 2: I always tell myself, this is the reason why we

65
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 2: play fantasy. Those Monday night games are fun. You look

66
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 2: forward to them throughout the day and then sometimes it's

67
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 2: just heartbreak at the end, that's what happens.

68
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the the unfortunate spot also in week twelve

69
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 4: because the extra extra gravi toss depending on your standings,

70
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 4: depending on tiebreakers and how those have all been set up,

71
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 4: depending on who you're facing in a particular week. Right,

72
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 4: there's some some games, even on a fantasy schedule, that

73
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 4: become you know, might as well be wearing rivalry colors

74
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 4: as you watch the games that meet a little bit

75
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 4: more why they're a better, bigger, more obnoxious smack talker

76
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 4: maybe in your league or just someone you don't like.

77
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 4: But all of that to say, you know that the

78
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 4: Monday night game, and when we start talking about you know,

79
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 4: McCaffrey in particular, it is like, at what point have

80
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 4: you squeezed too much out of him to wearing down

81
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 4: the stretch? You don't have it, but they've needed every

82
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 4: bit of it to get to eight and four. But yeah,

83
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 4: I mean the two circumstances of you and Ian had

84
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 4: talked about like that is just the absolute worst, right,

85
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 4: And I think we can all go back and all

86
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 4: of you listening, go back into your league and whether

87
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 4: it's your matchup or one you were watching chase you're

88
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 4: chasing in the standings, or who's chasing you, and you

89
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 4: see those narrow things, you start watching a myriad of

90
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 4: players beyond your own little microcosm of the fantasy world,

91
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 4: just like no, no, no, no, that five yards is gonna

92
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 4: screw me? Right, or in cases where it's like there's

93
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 4: the big decision of whether it was a pass or

94
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 4: not right, we had that in the Monday night game,

95
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 4: like is that gonna get overturned?

96
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 5: Is it? What it account?

97
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 4: Hey?

98
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 5: Someone tell me was it a catch or like?

99
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 4: Cause even I was listening to the radio broadcast on

100
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 4: the way into the studio to do my show with

101
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 4: Jason Smith, and they were in the broadcast booth arguing

102
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 4: about it. Well, swing out to McCaffrey whether it was

103
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 4: behind the line of scritage.

104
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 2: Yes, happened twice during the game on Monday night. And

105
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 2: this is we had our long term league where we

106
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 2: had our own rules, and it took us twenty seven

107
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 2: years to the SAT. I only just let a site

108
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 2: just do it and whatever they say goes. But we

109
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 2: I love to write out a little you know, I

110
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 2: used to do this, I don't do it anymore.

111
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 3: A little story.

112
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 2: You know, at the end, some of them are now

113
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 2: AI generated, and I shouldn't even say AI generated because

114
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 2: they've been generated way before AI. But the point being

115
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 2: is now a stat corrections and the other stuff we've

116
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 2: got going on. I just wait until the next week

117
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 2: is underway before I do any of that stuff, because

118
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 2: we have seen that effect games before. I remember a

119
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 2: couple of years ago, I was I had won a

120
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 2: game in a league where we had IDP and I

121
00:05:59,200 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 2: think it.

122
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 3: Was like Titans.

123
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 2: It was a Titans game because AJ Brown was on

124
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 2: the Titans at the time, and they threw three interceptions

125
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 2: the Titans did, and AJ Brown was getting points for

126
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 2: the tackles on the interceptions, and so.

127
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 3: Like it was like I lost, I won, I lost.

128
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 2: I ended up winning, But it went back and forth,

129
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: I kid you not, like two or three times on

130
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 2: whether AJ Brown was actually being credited for a tackle

131
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 2: on an interception where the defender went out of bounds

132
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 2: or just gave himself up. But yeah, those are the

133
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 2: sort of stat correction things that can end up plug,

134
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 2: you know, changing the fortunes and outcomes of games.

135
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 4: Well, what's funny is Once upon a time, in a

136
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 4: prior life, when I was helping administer the fun and

137
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 4: exciting world of the Yahoo Sports games, we'd have those

138
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 4: where people would set up the IDP. Well, there wouldn't

139
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 4: be the explicit nature of telling you what AJ Brown got.

140
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 4: There would be an asterisk that would show up, so

141
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 4: you know we got points for something, not a reception,

142
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 4: not yage, not a touchdown, but it wouldn't tell you

143
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 4: the specificity. So we'd get people writing in going, hey,

144
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 4: this guy got an extra like four points that doesn't

145
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 4: make any sense, like, and then we'd have to do

146
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 4: exactly that, go back through the play by play as

147
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 4: best we could, and obviously we get far more information

148
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 4: in our play by plays and recaps or the ability

149
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 4: to just go back and watch a game if we

150
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 4: needed to to try to settle these things, and you'd

151
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 4: have to write them back like, well, since your league

152
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 4: is set up for individual defensive players, since AJ Brown

153
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 4: tackled insert player here hit six P forty two of

154
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 4: the third, he was awarded the two points for the

155
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 4: tackle as prescribed by your rule, And we'd have to

156
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 4: go through and like it was. It was the fun

157
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 4: research part of the job. Right, Usually it was all right,

158
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 4: people just can't do basic math. But in this case, like,

159
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 4: all right, it's got to be a tackle. Go find

160
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 4: where that tackle happened in the game, and then let

161
00:07:58,400 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 4: this poor guy.

162
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 3: Know, gotta be somewhere in this sixty minutes.

163
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 5: No exactly.

164
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 4: And sometimes it wouldn't just be you know, a nebulous Hey,

165
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 4: this guy intercepted it down at the five. It's like,

166
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 4: all right, that has to be it, but it doesn't

167
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 4: say it. Yeah, how do I tell this guy that

168
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 4: that's the play? Because I couldn't attach a video at

169
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 4: that point. Right, this is rudimentary part. You know, the

170
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 4: internet just really starting to take off. Its like you're

171
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 4: gonna have to trust me, pale, you know that.

172
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 5: Kind of thing.

173
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 3: That's that's great.

174
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 2: It would come down to that and people would get mad.

175
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 2: But that's why we love fantasy football. Let's let's dive

176
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 2: into week twelve. Let's get to it, because there was

177
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 2: a lot that happens. I'm gonna I'm gonna start out

178
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 2: with one of the wackier situations. When you're scrolling box

179
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 2: scores and you're looking at all the matchups that we

180
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: had in week twelve. I think most of us were

181
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 2: pretty sure when we saw the leading rusher in that

182
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,199
Speaker 2: Colt's Chiefs game, it was gonna be Jonathan Taylor ocntreer

183
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 2: Mon Frere. Not only did Taylor just have fifty eight

184
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 2: yards on sixteen carries, Kareem Hunt, he had a buck

185
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 2: four and a touchdown Mike doing so on thirty carries.

186
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 2: I'm telling you it was shocking. Longest run eighteen yards

187
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 2: for Kareem Hunt average three and a half yards per

188
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 2: carry is the math is sitting there right in front

189
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 2: of me. But Kareem Hunt cashing in on week twelve

190
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 2: was not something that I expected, especially in that showdown

191
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 2: with the Colts. I know DeForest Buckner's not available right now,

192
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 2: that's hurting the Colts defense, but they just couldn't get

193
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 2: off the field and cream Hunt one of those who

194
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 2: was able to reap the benefits.

195
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 4: Just the willingness to keep tucking the ball into his gut. Now,

196
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 4: obviously still another week without Pacheco. We'll see if he's

197
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 4: available for week thirteen as they have that big showdown

198
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 4: against the Cowboys. You want to talk about intrigue on

199
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 4: both sides of an equation for a game in a

200
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 4: nice standalone spot there as part of the Thanksgiving festivities.

201
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 5: But thirty carries, I.

202
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 4: Mean, we count on one hand the number of guys

203
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 4: that have gotten thirty carries in a game, probably in

204
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 4: the last two years combined.

205
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 5: We just don't see that anymore. So.

206
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 4: The fact that they went to him early and often,

207
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 4: and it's a game where Patrick Mahomes threw for three

208
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty two yards like the two just they

209
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 4: blow your mind. Right, you finally got a couple of

210
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 4: big plays out of Worthy and Rice in the receiving game,

211
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 4: which the explosives haven't been there. But for Kareem Hunt,

212
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 4: it's we've kept him at arm's length all year and

213
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 4: rightly so, right because you're looking at a week to

214
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 4: week basis with that Kansas City run attack that you

215
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 4: haven't seen a lot, But it was his fourth straight

216
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 4: week with a touchdown run. So we had him on

217
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 4: the radar just because of the red zone efficiency. But

218
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 4: now you're talking about four straight weeks with double digit

219
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 4: touches and thirty thirty. Okay, even if we go back

220
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 4: to fifteen, he still becomes viable as a back end

221
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 4: two with the expectation even with a better Dallas run defense.

222
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 5: I mean, I still need to see more.

223
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 4: One game against the Raiders and then a half of

224
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 4: football that was pretty good against the Eagles is not

225
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 4: a great defense, make.

226
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 2: No, no, that's for sure. And the Colts, I think

227
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 2: better days will be ahead. They couldn't get off the field,

228
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 2: but I think this is also now a bit of

229
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 2: a recipe and not every team's going to be able

230
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 2: to do what the Chiefs are going to be able

231
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 2: to do.

232
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 3: CJ.

233
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 2: Strouds expected back for the Texans in Week thirteen, and

234
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 2: what is a huge divisional game in the AFC South

235
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 2: for both Indy and Houston.

236
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 3: But we saw what Houston did.

237
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 2: Defensively against the Bills on Thursday night and at least

238
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 2: getting after the quarterback. So I'm seeing I'm curious to

239
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 2: see on who wakes up for the Colts in that contest,

240
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,319
Speaker 2: because it was Daniel Jones of the red zone making

241
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 2: a couple of touchdown passes, but Jonathan Taylor largely ineffective

242
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,959
Speaker 2: for a game where the Colts just weren't on the

243
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: field much against Kansas City.

244
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, they got off for early, right, you saw, Like

245
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 4: I certainly got the blips of the updates of the

246
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones heroics early and then radio silent.

247
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,599
Speaker 5: Yeah, radio silent along.

248
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 4: The way and you know Jonathan Taylor, I mean, that's

249
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 4: one of the misses. But you know it's on the

250
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 4: Ronco set, and forget it. It's the anniversary of those

251
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 4: infomercials starting, so I got I gotta you know, get that,

252
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,479
Speaker 4: especially if you get the rotisserie chickens.

253
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 5: Going for the holiday holiday holiday.

254
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 4: But yeah, Daniel Jones, you know, you look at him

255
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 4: for the last couple of weeks, tough go. He's just

256
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 4: outside of the the qb ones in terms of his

257
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 4: scoring for week twelve. But against Houston, I mean that

258
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 4: becomes the what the hell else do I have available?

259
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 4: No part of that defensive front?

260
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with that, Like you got the as

261
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 2: you said, he got the two touchdown passes and it

262
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 2: was a moderate day. You know, you know, he didn't

263
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,959
Speaker 2: kill you by any means. But it's sure it is

264
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 2: a different time and now these games mean something. It's

265
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 2: it's the first half of the season versus the second

266
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 2: half of the season. And it's not that the first

267
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 2: half of the season is a high scoring affair. As

268
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,839
Speaker 2: Evan by what Jamier Gibbs did, and we'll get to

269
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 2: him and the Lions in just a second here, But

270
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 2: it's it's also just the fact of now teams are

271
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 2: realizing that they're, you know, playing for more, and I

272
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: just think, I think sometimes games play out differently. Sometimes

273
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 2: you will get those forty one thirty five shootouts and

274
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 2: maybe you wouldn't get earlier on in the season. But

275
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 2: other times you have a Chiefs team that desperately needed

276
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 2: to win that game and that was their script to

277
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 2: do so keep the Colts off the field, and they

278
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 2: were able to figure it out.

279
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 5: Grind it now.

280
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 4: Kareem Hunt also adding three catches for twenty six yards

281
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 4: in that one. But yeah, it'll it'll be curious to watch.

282
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 4: I mean, that Indie game this next week. I mean,

283
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 4: that's just crazy because now Houston they've won those games

284
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 4: with Davis Mills. Has it been great and efficient? No,

285
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 4: but it puts them back in. So now we start

286
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 4: looking at the jockeying for the division with Jacksonville playing

287
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 4: Tennessee as well, So we do the presumptive, all right,

288
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 4: Jackieville is gonna win. How does this you know matter,

289
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 4: you know for the division, but certainly you know divisional

290
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 4: matchups are a weird beast in and of themselves.

291
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 2: We'll get So what stood out to Mike in week

292
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 2: thirteen and or a week twelve as well, and what

293
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 2: stood out to Ian in this past week's action.

294
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 3: Of course, Week thirteen.

295
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 2: Starts with the tripleheader on Thursday to have into some

296
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 2: ramifications for that, and of course we have the Black

297
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 2: Friday Game with Mike's Bears taking on the Eagles coming

298
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 2: up on Friday. But more week twelve recap next here,

299
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: and I want your flex all right, we have the

300
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 2: Eagles blowing a twenty one nothing lead, or if you're

301
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 2: a Cowboys fan, you could say Cowboys coming back from

302
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 2: that twenty one nothing deficit with twenty four un answered

303
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 2: Giants alliance.

304
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 3: We're talking about that game.

305
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 2: As well, so much in Week twelve, Mike, what stands

306
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 2: out for you from what the week that we just.

307
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 4: Had absolute chaos all across the board, some as I

308
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 4: use the term strange bedfellows. I thought Jamis was a

309
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 4: nice ninja play. I didn't expect them to catch a

310
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 4: touchdown pass nor lead all quarterbacks with thirty two points.

311
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 4: Cam Ward was a top five guy for a week. So,

312
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 4: like you know, the old you know, any given Sunday,

313
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 4: kind of the mantra kind of really rang true. Trevor

314
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 4: Lawrence was a top seven quarterback. Nobody's banking on that.

315
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 4: Whereas some of our usual suspects. We already talked about

316
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 4: Jonathan Taylor and the struggles that he had, a part

317
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 4: of it not being on the field with all those

318
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 4: Kareem Hunt touches. But you know, Emmanuel Wilson steps in

319
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 4: for the injured Josh Jacobs. He's the second leading rusher

320
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 4: of the day. Again, we'll take the small victory lap

321
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 4: off the Ninja, but it had a giant question mark

322
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 4: was he actually going to get a workload? Derrick Henry

323
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 4: was number four. I don't trust Derrick Henry. I don't

324
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 4: trust anything going on in Baltimore right now. They're winning,

325
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 4: but for fantasy purposes, they inspire no confidence whatsoever. Lamar

326
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 4: Jackson seems like he's running in about fifty to sixty

327
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 4: percent of his normal self over the last four weeks

328
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 4: since his return, he's got a total of seventy two

329
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 4: rushing yards like twenty five attempts.

330
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you could see it.

331
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 2: And again, Ian under suspect to your jets.

332
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 6: But disrespect away.

333
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 2: Like I do wonder like if because there were runs

334
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 2: where you could tell that Lamar did not, you know,

335
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 2: go down on the throttle, like he just he was

336
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 2: not going to take off.

337
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 3: And I don't know if he was playing safe. I

338
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 3: don't know if he was.

339
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 2: Because they're playing the Jets the week prior it was

340
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 2: the game against the Browns, I don't know if, like

341
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 2: those are the reasons why he's doing that. And you know, figuring, well,

342
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 2: we got a game with the Steelers coming up in

343
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks, you got the Patriots on our schedule.

344
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 2: Those are the games are got to make sure I'm healthy.

345
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 2: But you're right, there is a different Lamar when he's

346
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 2: running the football.

347
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 3: You can see it.

348
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 6: There were there were some plays in that game where

349
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 6: they where the Ravens played the Jets that it was

350
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 6: like because the Jets defense was able to make those plays,

351
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 6: that was an ind cater in and of itself that

352
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 6: Lamar isn't isn't himself right now, there were some tackles

353
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 6: they were able to make that if Lamar were himself,

354
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 6: it just wouldn't have happened.

355
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, you look at their schedule, right, so they play

356
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 4: Cincinnati Thanksgiving night, and they have another one with them

357
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:17,439
Speaker 4: no Hendrickson, So the one defender you would fear chasing

358
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 4: him down in there. Two against Pittsburgh New England, as

359
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 4: you said, Dan, and then you got Green Bay. Those

360
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 4: are your six games remaining. But right now, back to

361
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 4: back weeks without a score, right now, the hand ringing,

362
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 4: here's an MVP. It's like and it's like, all right,

363
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 4: he's back and healthy, but I have a voted no confidence,

364
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 4: like I.

365
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 5: Can't start him.

366
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 4: Yes, I agree, but eaven against the Bengals what looks

367
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 4: like the cherry of matchups, ISO game, Thanksgiving trip to

368
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 4: fan induced coma, eating my fifth piece of pie. I

369
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,919
Speaker 4: don't want to be throwing up because I'm getting a

370
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 4: miserable effort because he can't run.

371
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, what scares me is we've seen some Angles Ravens

372
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 2: games in the past be nice, fun shootouts. This doesn't

373
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 2: behoove Baltimore to get into a shootout. Plus, I don't

374
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 2: even know if Burl's gonna be any good to be honest,

375
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 2: I mean I say that fliple, yeah, only just because

376
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 2: of rust. Now you're putting them in, what are we

377
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 2: going to get? I don't think you're gonna see t

378
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 2: Higgins on Thursday night because of the concussion that he suffered.

379
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 2: But yeah, so I just yeah, Lamar just didn't look

380
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 2: still is not looking the same. And I don't know

381
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 2: if it's if it's something more than him just being

382
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 2: apprehensive because of this or what.

383
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 3: But there is a difference for sure.

384
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 4: Go back through the running backs for some other Week

385
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 4: twelve again the position that is so in flux, right,

386
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 4: which is why if you have one of those bell cows.

387
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 4: We've talked a lot about McCaffrey, and you have one

388
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 4: of those guys that you can bank on those fifteen

389
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 4: to twenty touches, you just cherish them because you look

390
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 4: at the back end of those scores for rb ones

391
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 4: in week twelve, right half point PPR leagues, Kareem Hunt

392
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 4: that we talked about he was eight. We've seen more

393
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 4: of Travis etn feeling more comfortable and confident in what

394
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 4: they're doing run wise. James Cook was there great, but

395
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 4: we finally had an Ashton genty sighting wrong by me.

396
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 4: We talk about Wilson Gibbs with that monster performance, but

397
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 4: the back end of the rb Ones Judkins had the

398
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,479
Speaker 4: two scores taking care of business there. Kenneth Gainwell had

399
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 4: a big game against the Bears. Again, this goes back

400
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 4: to the Bears will give you a lot of yards.

401
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 4: They're gonna be opportunistics defensively even when they don't have

402
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 4: six starters. Dylan Samson with that swing pass that put

403
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 4: him into the top twelve, and then Tyrone Tracy was twelve.

404
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,959
Speaker 4: So you're looking at a lot of guys that are

405
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 4: either undrafted that you picked up on waivers, or they've

406
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 4: been languishing on your bench waiting for that opportunity.

407
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 5: Week twelve was it.

408
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 2: On Tracy gameplay. But now I'm starting to think that

409
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 2: these are what Giants games are going to look like.

410
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 2: I hate to say, Well, Jameis says the quarterback things

411
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: have opened up. I mean it really has, and and

412
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 2: the Lions needed every bit of Jumior Gibbs and his

413
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,400
Speaker 2: fifty five points and whatever he put up in various

414
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 2: leagues to be able to even have a chance to

415
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 2: win that game.

416
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 4: You know what's funny, like with the alerts that I

417
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 4: get right, it's opponent like, so I faced him in

418
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 4: a league and it kept bleeping. I'm like, this can't

419
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,120
Speaker 4: be right. Is a running back like what they don't

420
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 4: have the ball that much, Like what's going on here?

421
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 4: And then you look at the final you know, final updates. Again,

422
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 4: I was at a soccer game, so I eventually got

423
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 4: to go back and watch him, Like boy, I really

424
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:50,679
Speaker 4: enjoy watching him play, and it just scares me that

425
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 4: for all that time he.

426
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 5: Was boxed up.

427
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 4: And I love David Montgomery, but I mean, Gibbs is

428
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 4: just that guy on a whole other level.

429
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 3: And with the Laporta injury. Mm hm, this is this

430
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 3: has changed things.

431
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 2: That gets golf is either getting the ball to Amarra

432
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,439
Speaker 2: or he is getting the ball to Jamiir Gibbs. Like

433
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 2: there is no more everybody feasts. I mean, if Jamison

434
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 2: Williams can make some plays, great, but he didn't have

435
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 2: a catch on on Sunday, so that is of concern.

436
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:28,719
Speaker 2: And when guys are when your options are dwindling, it's

437
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 2: not that.

438
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 3: Next man up. Four moves to three and five moves

439
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 3: to four.

440
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 2: Now I think it's so much just focusing on all right,

441
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: I gotta find Amanra, I gotta we gotta get Jamir

442
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 2: Gibbs the football, and this is who we're gonna ride.

443
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 2: And it's actually what they did when Montgomery got hurt

444
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 2: at the end of last year, and why Gibbs was

445
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 2: able to to strive. I don't know if that's a

446
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 2: winning fashion for the Lions, but that's the way that

447
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 2: they have to play right now.

448
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, certainly down the stretch, you've got a

449
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 4: lot of indoor games, which bodes well. We all know

450
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 4: the legend that is Jared Goff there for Ama Rossain

451
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 4: Brown a big game. He's been plagued by drops throughout

452
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 4: the year. Certainly, we've got a bunch of Lions fans

453
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 4: and writers that we know that lament that at times

454
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 4: and like just the law of averages, you throw a

455
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 4: ball to a guy one hundred times, you get a

456
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 4: drop one. But all of that say, he was third

457
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 4: and half PPR leagues this week. But yeah, the Laporta

458
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 4: injury really does shed a light on you know what,

459
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 4: just get the ball into the two best guys and

460
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 4: let him try to scheme it up to get him

461
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 4: some yak.

462
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 2: And it wasn't like Laporta was the thea porter that

463
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 2: we knew from a season or two ago. But still

464
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 2: like it's just another option that kind of ends up

465
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 2: going by the wayside. Ian what stood out for you

466
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 2: in Week twelve.

467
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,679
Speaker 6: Yeah, guys, I think I think we'd be remiss if

468
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 6: we didn't mention schud Or Sanders and the start to

469
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 6: his you know, starting career that he's had.

470
00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 5: It was the Raiders.

471
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 6: You know, plenty of people in our industry have have

472
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 6: pointed out, and rightfully so it was the Raiders, and

473
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 6: that's not you know, it makes his performance a little

474
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 6: less impressive, and it's not like his performance in a

475
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 6: vacuum on its own with some incredible, you know, lights

476
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 6: out performance, But it's just so much better than what

477
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 6: Dylan Gabriel was to me. This just opens up every

478
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 6: other Browns fantasy option, like not only the receivers you

479
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 6: know in Djoku and Judy who obviously had that terrible fumble,

480
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 6: but the running backs too, like Judkins had a huge

481
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 6: game and that's just a result of them being in

482
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 6: scoring position more often, and Schador clearly gives them way

483
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 6: more of a chance to move the ball. So we'll

484
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 6: see how he does against the defense that's non Raiders,

485
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 6: but again, like you play the team in front of you,

486
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 6: they're still an NFL defense, and he looked like he

487
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 6: belonged to He looked better than a fifth round pick, right,

488
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 6: So that's what I saw.

489
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he did, especially when you look at

490
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 2: the names of some of the quarterbacks that have started.

491
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 3: That was my big thing on Sunday.

492
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 2: Of about twelve quarterbacks that ended up starting games from

493
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 2: in their rookie season that were fifth round or worse

494
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 2: over the last ten seasons. And we're talking Clayton Tune,

495
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 2: We're talking Skyler Thompson. Now brock Perty was one of

496
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 2: those guys. Jaron Hall a couple of years ago with

497
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 2: the Vikings as the Nathan net pops up. Gardner Minshew

498
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 2: was on that list. And you know what else is

499
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,880
Speaker 2: on the list, Nathan Peterman remember him from.

500
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 3: The five interception game and a half year.

501
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So it could have been that for Shador

502
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,959
Speaker 2: and it wasn't. What I do think was interesting, and

503
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 2: I wonder if it will change in Week thirteen against

504
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers. But Judkins got it both of

505
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 2: his touchdowns via the wildcat. It took Shador completely off

506
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 2: the field in that scenario. So I don't know if

507
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 2: this is going to be something going forward, if this

508
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 2: was a different look, if this was a we don't

509
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 2: trust Shador. But I am curious to see what the

510
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 2: Browns do in those certain goal to goal situations moving forward,

511
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 2: because it did seem to work. I mean, Judkins got

512
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 2: in the end zone both times, but it's against again,

513
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 2: it's against the Raiders, and maybe different against San Francisco.

514
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 2: But Niner's not coming in on a short week, going

515
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 2: on the road again, having to travel west or east.

516
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 2: So yeah, so there could be more opportunities, uh for

517
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 2: that for that run game, and even to Ian's point,

518
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 2: maybe even more so in the passing game if.

519
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:20,199
Speaker 3: You need to.

520
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 6: And to be clear, I'm not saying I would, you know,

521
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 6: even start Shoudoor Sanders in fantasy.

522
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 5: It's more just no. But you're saying Harold result exactly.

523
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,719
Speaker 6: Guys like Harold Fanon are just gonna have way more

524
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 6: opportunities because there's a guy who can actually get them

525
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:33,400
Speaker 6: the ball.

526
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 5: No, that's thing being able to work down field.

527
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 4: Like in terms of advance reference from Pro football Reference

528
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 4: dot Com, Dylan Gabriel average yards air yards per pass

529
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 4: attempt five point nine. Not surprising down there with Kyler

530
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 4: Murray and Aaron Rodgers just ahead of them. Jared Goff,

531
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 4: take that for what it is, uh for Shoudoor Sanders

532
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 4: limited limited space here, but you're looking at eight point four.

533
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 4: That puts him at eighth right. And and that's the

534
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 4: one thing that we saw when he came in with

535
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 4: the four for sixteen. He's gonna put the ball up right,

536
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 4: and he's not shy about it. Like his postgame comments

537
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 4: got everybody all and it's hissy. It's like, whatever, the

538
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 4: guy got to start a game. He gotta win. He

539
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 4: gets to say nanny nanny booboo and move on, right.

540
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's it. You can like it or not.

541
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 4: You know, he thanks God, he thanks his family, whatever. Wow,

542
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 4: what a terrible guy. But it's when you get down

543
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 4: to it. Jerry Judy Fannin, who was one of the

544
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 4: few targets that Dylan Gabriel could get the ball to

545
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 4: because of that short and intermediate style that he had.

546
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 4: That's great, but you know, Shador's not gonna shy away

547
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 4: from putting the ball down. Does that mean that some

548
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:55,640
Speaker 4: turnovers are gonna come? Absolutely? And was he scattershot?

549
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 5: Sure? First start eleven of twenty one, was it world beating?

550
00:26:58,960 --> 00:26:59,120
Speaker 3: No?

551
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 4: A lot of the yards come on the two, like

552
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 4: the one reception, the fifty nine yarder. I mean that

553
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 4: was a great throw right and rolling to your right.

554
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 4: I mean cannon for an r but for a stumbling,

555
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 4: bumbling catch he goes into the end zone. And we're

556
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 4: talking about that in a whole other way, right. And

557
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 4: then obviously you get the Sampson swing pass that it

558
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 4: counts for sixty six. You don't have to like it,

559
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 4: but it still counts as a sixty six yards.

560
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,680
Speaker 6: The best was like ESPN PR or something like tweeting

561
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 6: out the videos saying it's the longest completion by a

562
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 6: rookie all season, and just knowing that that was complete

563
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 6: rage paid.

564
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 2: The other great thing about the Dylan Samson play in

565
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 2: the line is that Dylan Samson's long catch came for

566
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 2: sixty six yards. He had fifty nine total receiving yards,

567
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 2: So the other one lost seven yards. Oh no, two

568
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 2: catches for fifty nine yards and a touchdown and the

569
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 2: long was sixty six.

570
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,919
Speaker 4: Well, on that other reception, you just still got the

571
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 4: point three in a pp are. But all of that

572
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 4: to say it, it does open things up, and it

573
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,119
Speaker 4: gives us another guy to talk about, right, are we

574
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 4: gonna see great heights? No?

575
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 5: I don't think so.

576
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 4: But it's interesting and it's the first win by a

577
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 4: Brown's quarterback and his debut.

578
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 5: Did you see the answer to that one?

579
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 3: Dan Yeah, Zire Eric.

580
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 5: Zion Ericxire in nineteen ninety.

581
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 3: Five, former Georgia Bulldog.

582
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 2: The other thing with like the Browns, like if you

583
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 2: were to pick up Isaiah bond if you're like really

584
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 2: hurting for wide receivers and maybe you are, maybe you

585
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 2: got Terry McLaurin or Marvin Harrison or T Higgins or

586
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 2: one of those guys. You do have a game with

587
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 2: the Titans coming up in a couple of weeks. Plus

588
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 2: teams that do have these young quarterbacks will take shots

589
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 2: down the field, so you'll see more maybe of those

590
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 2: plays to Isaiah Bond.

591
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 4: Well and those guys they've been working with all season, right,

592
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 4: we've yeah, we've always talked about that, right ye. Elevated

593
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 4: guy from the second team, whoever he's been running practice

594
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 4: reps with, probably gonna see a little more run.

595
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Any thoughts on JJ McCarthy now on concussion protocol

596
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 2: for the Vikings, that's and that's that's tough man.

597
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 4: And like right now that that shot of Justin Jefferson

598
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 4: walking off the field and he's saying all the right

599
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 4: things and he's being a good teammate. It is tough.

600
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 4: I mean I mentioned to you guys, I think it

601
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 4: was off air. Was the Jordan Addison big goose egg, right,

602
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 4: because in my matchup I got absolutely drummed because a

603
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 4: couple of huge uh the one I really care about,

604
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 4: you know, how you line up. It's like it was

605
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 4: on his side, I'm on Ross Saint Brown on my side,

606
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 4: Jordan Addison like yeah, so yeah, you're you're just watching

607
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 4: a disaster from an offensive standpoint, right, and it this

608
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 4: week it gets magnified because here's Sam Darnold and the

609
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 4: Seahawks waiting on you.

610
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it very much could be the Max Brosmer show.

611
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 6: Cathy's not even playing, so it's just gonna look yeah.

612
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 2: Well that's yeah, that's the rock. They They may they

613
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 2: may need to just punt on the season, bring a

614
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 2: little bit more talent in, but you got to figure

615
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 2: out a way to fix that in the off season.

616
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 2: Every By the way, Ian, just so you know, Vikings

617
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 2: fans now think that they can maybe try to swing

618
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 2: a deal to get Joe Burrow.

619
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 5: So it's not just the Jets.

620
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 2: Vikings fans are now in on it, because why wouldn't

621
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 2: you reunite Joe Burrow and Justin Jefferson right from the

622
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 2: LSU days.

623
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 3: Let's get him.

624
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 6: I'd much rather go to Minnesota than than the Jets.

625
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 6: I still don't think he moves.

626
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 3: But no, I don't. I don't think so either.

627
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,719
Speaker 5: But postantial for chaos is good for all of us.

628
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, right, yeah, keeps the conversation going. That's always

629
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 2: a good thing. We will as well. After our time out,

630
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 2: Mike's gonna give you some waiver wire picks. Plus we

631
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,479
Speaker 2: all give our report cards for how we did in

632
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 2: week twelve.

633
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 3: That's all coming up next right here on. I want

634
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 3: your flex.

635
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 2: Mike's got some waiver wire picks coming up for week

636
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 2: thirteen in just a little bit.

637
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 3: But let's get to the report cards. Mike. We will

638
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 3: start with you hand your week twelve.

639
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 4: Look, well, we got a couple of hits in the

640
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 4: quarterback Stafford and Hurts got us there.

641
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 5: Mahomes was still a QB one. I'll take the w there.

642
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 4: I had Gibbs and McCaffrey flipped, but we'll take those wins.

643
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 4: And we did have Derrick Henry in the top five.

644
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 4: I was questioning myself after we record, I go, why

645
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 4: did I do that? And it worked for once? Hey,

646
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 4: the blind squirrel theory. I'm on Ross, Saint Brown, JSN

647
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 4: wins and the wide receiver. Otherwise, I mean Drake May,

648
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 4: Jared Goff, Traveon Henderson, Saquon Barkley. I mean, yes, you

649
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 4: got the receptions, but the running it really two one zero,

650
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 4: Like it looked like the old Barry Sanders where you're like,

651
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 4: all right, I'm gonna get the fifty five and a touchdown.

652
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 5: Aren't it?

653
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 4: Nah? I got none of that. Shot in a beer,

654
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 4: shot in a beer. Jonathan Taylor gave us nothing, so

655
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 4: fails there. T Higgins failed to finish the game. Hopefully

656
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 4: he's okay, but we had him as a top play.

657
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 4: Rashi Rice had ance game, so we'll take a half.

658
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 5: A victory there. Puka Nakua and a Rare.

659
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 4: I mean, he got seven for ninety seven, but that's

660
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 4: not what we come to expect. Where's more, if you're

661
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 4: going to score that many points in the first half,

662
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 4: why do you give me nothing?

663
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 5: All right?

664
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,479
Speaker 4: Brissett, Caleb were wins Quin, Shawn Judkins. As you mentioned

665
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 4: with the Wildcat got us there on the cold Soars.

666
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 4: I feel like I've got him in a really thick

667
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 4: inkpen at this point when you're talking about Justin Jefferson,

668
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 4: Christian Watson didn't give us much Roma doonesay, despite the

669
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 4: Bears heroics, he didn't give us much fantasy wise, Jamis

670
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 4: was a ninja and Wilson was a ninja. Gain Well,

671
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 4: Michael Wilson massive targets once again and won. Dale Robinson

672
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 4: hit for us on the downside, Lamar as a hot play.

673
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 4: Jean was outside of the rb ones Jamison Williams big

674
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 4: fat zero. I'm stealing that from our buddy Monci Belanyos,

675
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 4: Big fat zero. That's how she describes players on her

676
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 4: fantasy team that let her down. I had Genty on

677
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 4: the cold Soores got good for him, had a big

678
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 4: day a dak after just a miserable start to things,

679
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 4: ends up with a banner day, so he gets it done.

680
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 4: So it makes me look stupid, so we take that.

681
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 4: And then I had Shadour as a ninja. So while

682
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 4: he gave us the headlines, he gave us nothing else.

683
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 3: Oh that's all right, at least they had some fun.

684
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 5: No, that's it.

685
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 3: Yeah. Ian Hunter streaming defenses work in Week.

686
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 5: Twelve, pretty solid week.

687
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 6: We'll go worst to best, So start with the Raiders.

688
00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 6: They got just seven fantasy points if he started them.

689
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 6: They all allowed twenty four points to the Browns, but

690
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 6: they did picture door off once. They got a fumble,

691
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 6: recovery and a sack, so that was good for seven points.

692
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 6: And then the New Orleans Saints the other two that

693
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 6: I gave you with the Saints and the Falcons.

694
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 3: Both on the Saints game All Black weekend.

695
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,320
Speaker 6: Yeah exactly, So the Saints got to eleven fantasy points.

696
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 6: They also allowed twenty four points to the Falcons, but

697
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,879
Speaker 6: they got a pick six forty nine yard pick six.

698
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 6: Might I add on Kirk Cousins huge, and then they

699
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 6: sacked him three times as well, so that was good

700
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 6: for eleven fantasy points. And then the Falcons. They only

701
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 6: allowed four points to the Saints, so that was extremely

702
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,439
Speaker 6: ideal for fantasy purposes. They got an interception on top

703
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 6: of that, recovered a fumble, and they got to Kirk

704
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 6: five times, or they got to Tyler Schuck five times.

705
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, so pretty good week for fantasy defenses. So yeah, uh,

706
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:54,839
Speaker 6: seven eleven and fifteen points.

707
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 3: All right, That's that's all we can ask. Especially with

708
00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 3: those teams.

709
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 2: There was a little bit to be desired, but sometimes

710
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 2: you just have to have to roll with it.

711
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 3: And Ian cashed in.

712
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:12,879
Speaker 2: Yes, Yes, zilmed the Points of Paloza. Hit guys, yeah,

713
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 2: Giants and Lions, so much so that I replayed this

714
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 2: on Sunday to Ian, I said, I got a double

715
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 2: check to make sure, and I'm like, yes, all right,

716
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 2: we did hit it. And survivor pick told you to

717
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 2: take the Seahawks of the games that had the three

718
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,919
Speaker 2: big spreads. If you took the Lions, you sweated it out,

719
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 2: but you gotta win. Kudos to you, But we were

720
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 2: safe on the Seahawks. The coin flip that I told

721
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 2: you to take the Browns, I kind of wish I

722
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 2: would have done it myself in my pool, but they

723
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,240
Speaker 2: came through big time. So if you took Cleveland, congratulations,

724
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 2: you were probably one of the few. So at least

725
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 2: some high marks on the report card for me for

726
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 2: Week twelve, despite the tough loss in Fantasy during the week.

727
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 5: Good call on the Browns, Dan, That's that's a good week.

728
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's there's a couple of Week thirteen that we'll

729
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 2: get to in our next episode that I think could

730
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 2: be very intriguing. It's just on what side you're going

731
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 2: to be on, so sha'll see.

732
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's an interesting slate for sure. And finally, a

733
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 4: week with no buys, no international games. For that you

734
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 4: have to monitor early on and get those lineup sets.

735
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 4: And so this is where we get into the injury

736
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 4: report for week thirteen. It is probably the most important

737
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 4: week of the year in trying to parse out information.

738
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and there will be buyes after Week fourteen is

739
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 2: the last week of byes. But yes, Mike says, there's

740
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 2: nobody on by coming up in week thirteen. All right,

741
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:37,879
Speaker 2: With that being said, we don't have to worry about

742
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 2: guys being on by Mike, but we do have to

743
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 2: worry about injuries and other things.

744
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:43,919
Speaker 3: Who do we look for on the waiver wire this week?

745
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 4: Well, we got another top seven effort out of Jacoby

746
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,760
Speaker 4: Brissett in week twelve. He goes up against the Buccaneers,

747
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,399
Speaker 4: so let's go, let's roll him up again. He's still

748
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 4: available in nearly forty percent of leagues based on looking

749
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 4: at the Yahoo default leagues to a tongue of Ilo

750
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,760
Speaker 4: going up against the new Orleans Saints owned in only

751
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:08,799
Speaker 4: seventeen percent of league's opportunity. They played well coming out

752
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 4: of their bye week. Maybe an opportunity to push Trevor

753
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 4: Lawrence going up against Tennessee. Look you arrive the lightning

754
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 4: with Trevor Lawrence. We've talked about this, Dan, you and

755
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,720
Speaker 4: I I think I've flipped a decade at this point,

756
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 4: it seems talking about Trevor Lawrence. But an opportunity here.

757
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 4: We'll keep an eye on what goes on with the Giants,

758
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,879
Speaker 4: whether Jackson Dart gets activated. Right that's the Monday night

759
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 4: game against New England, because if not, Al jamis all

760
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 4: the time, baby.

761
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 5: If not, maybe you could play him as a tight end.

762
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 5: I don't know.

763
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 4: And then Sam Darnold going up against Minnesota. They're ten

764
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,839
Speaker 4: and a half point favorites as I look at this

765
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 4: here late on a Monday night, So an opportunity knocks there.

766
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 4: Quarterback position done gain Well fifty four percent owned Monong Guy,

767
00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 4: fifty six percent owned Trey Benson on the comeback there

768
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 4: in Arizona. That's a stash. See what his status is.

769
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 4: Eventually he's going to be back to take up that

770
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 4: run game. But he's available, in nearly forty percent of leagues,

771
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 4: and then Emmanuel Wilson with the short week, with that

772
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 4: game against Detroit looming, the potential is that Josh Jacobs

773
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 4: may miss another We'll have to see. We'll have more

774
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 4: on our midweek episode, but for defensive purposes and based

775
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 4: on proof of concept with what he did this past week,

776
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 4: he should be rostered. Go find him still available in

777
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 4: about thirty five percent of leagues. And then we get

778
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 4: to the wide receivers.

779
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 5: We got our guy.

780
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 4: DK We've talked about him before, Shamir d K fourteen

781
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 4: percent on Now you're probably not getting the punt returns. Sorry,

782
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 4: that's not helping you out, but you're looking at a

783
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 4: guy who if cam Ward's finding anybody's finding him, and

784
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 4: against the Jacksonville secondary for week thirteen, potential for you

785
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 4: there Wandeale Robinson still available in about twenty five percent

786
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 4: of leagues. His target count week to week has just

787
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 4: been through the roof. You look at Christian Watson. Do

788
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 4: I trust the Packers pass game week to week? No,

789
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,840
Speaker 4: But we're trying to find shares, trying to find some

790
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 4: level of consistency going up against Detroit. Potentially an opportunist

791
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 4: no t Higgins as we've talked about, which means Yoshavash

792
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 4: should be able to find his way. He's only owned

793
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 4: in about twenty to twenty five percent of leagues depending

794
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 4: on where you're looking. Seven target sixty one yards in

795
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 4: that one, and then Parker Washington only forty percent owned,

796
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:33,319
Speaker 4: So getting a little bit deep, and then we could

797
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 4: start playing in the tight end position as the week

798
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 4: goes on.

799
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 2: All right, there you are your waiver wire pickups four

800
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 2: Week thirteen. I love the love the matchups. I love

801
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 2: the game in Detroit should be a good one. Chiefs

802
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 2: Cowboys is going to just shatter records for viewing. It's

803
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 2: going to be the most watched game of the season.

804
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 2: That Cowboys game usually is. But now with this matchup

805
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 2: should be intriguing. And yeah, Bengals and Ravens are the

806
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 2: Sunday Night test with Joe Burrow's return, I mean, Chris

807
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 2: Collinsworth is not gonna be there. I mean he's gonna

808
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 2: miss a Bengals game. It's gonna be Jason Garrett in

809
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,319
Speaker 2: the boothon on Thursday night.

810
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 3: Wow.

811
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 5: How about that?

812
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah? Interesting?

813
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, so those four games before we get

814
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 4: to the weekend are just insane. Yeah, right in Chicago

815
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 4: Philly basically for the top of the NFC, alongside the

816
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 4: Rams right now. I mean, it's just I don't know,

817
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 4: it's nuts.

818
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 2: Well, I'll say this, when it comes to Survivor pools,

819
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 2: we've given advanced picks before. There's no reason to pick

820
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 2: anybody in the first four games of the week, so

821
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 2: you can hold off the Sunday Sundays where you're gonna

822
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 2: want to find more fertile ground. Because I'm not quite

823
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 2: sure what we're gonna get on Thanksgiving her on Black Friday.

824
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 5: No, I know, I'm gonna eat a lot.

825
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 4: I'm gonna probably pass out and try to sleep, but

826
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 4: probably see a movie or two with the girls somewhere

827
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 4: along the way, watch some soccer. But those four games

828
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,319
Speaker 4: are all heavyweight battles, like so much meaning for each

829
00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:01,040
Speaker 4: of those in Baltimore ahead in the we may not

830
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 4: like the North, but if Joe Burrow plays and plays

831
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,439
Speaker 4: anything like we've seen Joe Burrow, all of a sudden

832
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 4: chaos ensues. Kansas City, Dallas may just break the internet. Yeah,

833
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 4: all right, right, and then Green Bay Detroit. There's two

834
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:18,800
Speaker 4: teams we're going into in the week thirteen. I can't

835
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,359
Speaker 4: tell you definitively how much I love or hate those

836
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 4: Like I don't know what I'm getting week to week.

837
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 5: So it's great. And then the Bears drive me nuts.

838
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 5: So winning football but still maddening.

839
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 4: Dan.

840
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna say, what else is new? But

841
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 2: just the winning recording that changed, chalk up the the WS,

842
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 2: the I just I want to just leave the podcast

843
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 2: with this point because I don't know if it dawned

844
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,800
Speaker 2: on people as much. But with Joe Burrow coming back

845
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 2: and I said this, we're in for Doug on Monday

846
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 2: on Monday Show, do people realize that the Bengals, like

847
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 2: it was.

848
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 3: Worst case scenario for them.

849
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 2: Practically the only game they've won since Burrow was out

850
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,799
Speaker 2: was that Thursday night game against the Steelers that we

851
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 2: all watched. And so now Burrow is coming back and

852
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 2: they're three games back, and we feel like the Bengals

853
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 2: like kind of survived, like they still have a chance,

854
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,320
Speaker 2: which I don't think they do really. The Steelers and

855
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 2: Ravens haven't played each other, but it basically almost wouldn't

856
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,239
Speaker 2: have mattered, Like Joe Flacco won them that one game

857
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 2: that was the only game that they've won since Burrow

858
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 2: went out in that game against Jacksonville that they ended

859
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,879
Speaker 2: up winning when Jake Browning took over. But I mean

860
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 2: they could get anything right during that stretch.

861
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 4: No, not at all. And it's still just that curiosity

862
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 4: even coming back right right, Like part of me is,

863
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:56,319
Speaker 4: all right, you're getting paid a lot of money, you're

864
00:42:56,360 --> 00:43:01,840
Speaker 4: a professional. You can play spoiler and show that you

865
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 4: can get back on the field because the injury bug injury,

866
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 4: you know, riddled, you know, Tag is starting to really

867
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 4: find him. Like I still remember walking out of the

868
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,920
Speaker 4: super Bowl against the Rams and everybody, ah, we got.

869
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 5: It for a decoun I'm like, not so fast. That's

870
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 5: not the way this works.

871
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,400
Speaker 4: You're not supposed to be happy just because you got

872
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 4: a trip to southern California and got to watch your

873
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 4: team in a super Bowl. You should be pissed should

874
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:29,280
Speaker 4: have won that game. But it's and now we're watching

875
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 4: it years later, just we as football fans fantasy owners

876
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 4: just want to see this guy on the field. But

877
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 4: now that he's coming back and Week thirteen him, part

878
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 4: of me is like.

879
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:44,280
Speaker 2: Why, yeah, it's he needed to play last week honestly,

880
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 2: like he really did.

881
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 3: He needed to play against the Patriots on Sunday.

882
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 6: And it's not like scoring points has been the issue

883
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 6: for them. It's been the defense. Like Joe Flacco, they

884
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 6: still mad. There were a few games they managed to

885
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,359
Speaker 6: put up like thirty eight points. Still, so how much

886
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 6: was Burrow gonna help still lose?

887
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, hopefully you won't throw a pick six that

888
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 2: ended up costing ultimately the Bengals that game against the Patriots.

889
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 2: There are other awards to play along with, but Chase

890
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 2: Brown's been great at least during that stretch. So you

891
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 2: got that Cincinnati and that's it for us. We're going

892
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 2: to be back with our rankings episode later in this

893
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving week, but that's what we're gonna give you.

894
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,240
Speaker 3: We've talked about it. We're gonna just have two episodes

895
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:23,680
