Speaker 1: Bay from Fine God Bro say Francis practice stand ball,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, yours with that? We what are you
Speaker 1: inside of Studio thirty four? This is the VFFS His
Speaker 1: Frank Standfell. I am Greg Sousman and we're still alive. Baby.
Speaker 1: What's going on? Frankie? Hey, what's happening? Happy Monday to
Speaker 1: your week fourteen nearly in the books. Lots to talk
Speaker 1: about from a fantasy football perspective. Just an absolute crazy,
Speaker 1: crazy Sunday. Lots of injuries, a lot of surprising performances,
Speaker 1: a lot of duds as well. Greg, how are you doing, buddy?
Speaker 1: I'm doing all right, man. I was shocked this morning
Speaker 1: when you walked in, You're like, you know we lost right,
Speaker 1: Like no, no, I did not found out at the
Speaker 1: same time as you. I was stunned. The BFFs were
Speaker 1: up fifty points in the pit League going into Sunday
Speaker 1: Night Football against the fantasy task Jim Day who has
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley, Robert Woods and the Seattle Seahawks defense Greig
Speaker 1: And what's crazy is so he needs these two RAMS
Speaker 1: players to go off against his own defense. The only
Speaker 1: thing that couldn't happen was a pick six happening. Robert
Speaker 1: Woods hasn't scored a touchdown all season long. Now one
Speaker 1: on the receiving your BFFs loose, shout out the fantasy tags.
Speaker 1: He pulls it out. Man, unbelievable. Man, that sucks. That sucked.
Speaker 1: But yesterday it was a day full of injuries, a
Speaker 1: a crushing, crushing, crushing day of injuries. I want to
Speaker 1: start with the latest one that I just saw bray
Speaker 1: cross my timeline. That's Calvin Ridley. Calvin really says he's
Speaker 1: out for the season for the Atlanta Falcons. Obviously only
Speaker 1: two more weeks the fantasy season, three more weeks of
Speaker 1: the regular season. Calval Ridley is done obviously, Atlanta in
Speaker 1: a tough spot this week in San Francisco. So you'll
Speaker 1: you have Calvin, you'll have who the Jones probably don't
Speaker 1: want to pick up the Russell gage to do that
Speaker 1: thing against San Francisco. Although yesterday defense not great, mom, No,
Speaker 1: they weren't great. It's very hard to go into New
Speaker 1: Orleans in the super Dome and look good as a defense.
Speaker 1: That was probably the most fun game of the year.
Speaker 1: We'll get to that a little bit later on. But
Speaker 1: you mentioned Calvin Ridley. This really comes at a bad time, Greg,
Speaker 1: because you know, we start off the show, you know,
Speaker 1: hint again all the injuries that we had, and this
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley won while we knew about it. It happened yesterday.
Speaker 1: He left at halftime. We didn't know that it was
Speaker 1: going to be this severe. So now we're dealing with
Speaker 1: Mike Evans and d J. Chark and Calvin Ridley is
Speaker 1: just another one of those major injuries in the fantasy
Speaker 1: football season down the stretch here, and he was dominating recently.
Speaker 1: Greg four straight games at least ninety yards or a
Speaker 1: touchdown a touchdown in three of those four games. Scored
Speaker 1: a touchdown yesterday before he left. So if you started him,
Speaker 1: he potentially helped you move on to the next round.
Speaker 1: But you will not have him in week fifteen and beyond.
Speaker 1: It's a really big blow for a young player that
Speaker 1: was really coming down. Greg, all right, let me start
Speaker 1: off in Atlanta. Then the Atlanta fall can destroy the
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers. Yesterday man Matt Ryan led the way, DeVante
Speaker 1: Freeman found the end zone for the first time this
Speaker 1: season for Carolina. Ian Thomas got in the end zone.
Speaker 1: So this, uh, this destruction at the hands of Atlanta
Speaker 1: crippling Perry Fuels Carolina Panthers. Predictable, Yes, very predictable here. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, we didn't necessarily know which Panthers team was
Speaker 1: gonna show up no Ron Rivera, and the answer unequivocally
Speaker 1: was a team that is basically mailing it in now
Speaker 1: that they fired their head coach, Ron Rivera. They get
Speaker 1: blown out in Atlanta Divisional game forty to twenty. Here
Speaker 1: you mentioned DeVonta Freeman a lot of first yesterday, Greg,
Speaker 1: Devantay Freeman first rushing touchdown, Mike Williams and Robert Woods
Speaker 1: against your bfs. Of course, first receiving touchdowns of the season.
Speaker 1: Better late than never. But I would consider Devantay Freeman
Speaker 1: a winner. Greg. You know, since he has returned, he
Speaker 1: is dominating the Snaps. He played sixties scent of the
Speaker 1: Snaps yesterday. Yes, it is a tougher match up against
Speaker 1: San Francisco heading into next week. But I think if
Speaker 1: you do want to attack the San Francisco forty niners
Speaker 1: one way, it's better to do so on the ground
Speaker 1: than through the air. I mean, their secondary has been
Speaker 1: great all year. Of course, they have an injury to
Speaker 1: Richard Sherman, so we'll have to monitor that. But DeVonta
Speaker 1: Freeman seventeen carries, eighty four yards and a touchdown. We
Speaker 1: knew this was a good spot against Carolina. You want
Speaker 1: to start all of your running backs against the Carolina Panthers. Yes,
Speaker 1: they are that bad. I had Freeman as a high
Speaker 1: nd RB two. I think that he was, you know,
Speaker 1: on a team that doesn't have a lot of winners, Greg,
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons probably the biggest winner yesterday on a
Speaker 1: team that doesn't have a lot of winners, DeVonta Freeman
Speaker 1: was probably the biggest winner for the Atlanta Falcons. Absolutely
Speaker 1: winner yesterday. He performed better than I thought yards and
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. Still not as good as Ryan t. You
Speaker 1: mentioned Richard Sherman, you mentioned the San Francisco four Niners.
Speaker 1: It was arguably the game of the day. The fourty
Speaker 1: Niners defeated the New Orleans Saints on a last minute
Speaker 1: Robbie goldfield goal. Crazy game. It was a crazy, crazy
Speaker 1: game where Jimmy g lad the way for San Francisco
Speaker 1: Drew Brees. Two of them went head to head toe
Speaker 1: to tell, and it's an awesome, awesome contest down there
Speaker 1: in the Superdome. You know how we like to hold
Speaker 1: ourselves accountable here on the BFS, Greg, we give out
Speaker 1: apologies often. I think now is the time to apologize
Speaker 1: to both of the quarterbacks in this game, because we
Speaker 1: both said we we weren't really in on Drew Brees
Speaker 1: heading into last week. Nobody could have seen this coming. Yes,
Speaker 1: you could have said, you know, games in the Superdome
Speaker 1: tend to trend towards the over. That's fine, but nobody
Speaker 1: saw forty eight to forty six, Kyle Shanahan playing out
Speaker 1: all the stops, having Emmanuel Sanders throw touchdowns are really
Speaker 1: really fun game all around. But I think that this
Speaker 1: was a big game for Jimmy Garoppolo in terms of
Speaker 1: his development and its confidence, Greg, because we have seen
Speaker 1: some big games at a Jimmy G over the past
Speaker 1: month or so. But against the Arizona Cardinals, you know
Speaker 1: the Saints, your defense is solid. I would say it's
Speaker 1: probably above average. Is not an elite defense by any means.
Speaker 1: They do get a lot of pressure. So that's why
Speaker 1: I worried about Jimmy G in this spot. But man,
Speaker 1: that offensive line held up. He was really good. I mean,
Speaker 1: Rappolo really got it done yesterday. So if you have
Speaker 1: managed to use one of him or Drew Brees and
Speaker 1: Super flex League or somehow in a one quarterback league
Speaker 1: huge winners from yesterday, Garoppolo getting it done thrown a
Speaker 1: bomb to Emmanuel Sanders. I know you had your dilemma,
Speaker 1: Greg about who to start in your flex I told
Speaker 1: you I liked Emmanuel Sanders matchup, but I didn't have
Speaker 1: enough conviction to tell you to put him in your lineup.
Speaker 1: But he was, you know, another huge winner yesterday. Both
Speaker 1: him and Deebo Samuel at least eight targets eating each
Speaker 1: in this game. And the answer to who is the
Speaker 1: back to own in the forty nights backfield's for he
Speaker 1: Moster and it's not close. A whole lot of Raheemoster
Speaker 1: yesterday for San Francisco. Matt Brita was obviously worked in there,
Speaker 1: which which was nice to see. The little change of
Speaker 1: pace for he most or was he every down back?
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman played like three snaps all game, got pushed
Speaker 1: back on a third and one third quarter and that
Speaker 1: was eight for Devin Coleman. You could drop him six
Speaker 1: of the snatch for he Moster in this game, just
Speaker 1: eighteen percent for Matt Breed a sixteen percent for Tevin Coleman.
Speaker 1: So if you managed to pick up Raheem Mooster, I
Speaker 1: think that he is a legitimate ARB two moving forward.
Speaker 1: I agree, and of course that will change next week
Speaker 1: when they go to Jeff Wilson Jr. Right now, I
Speaker 1: totally agree where he Oaster, absolutely somebody can rely on.
Speaker 1: On the other side. As you said, we shied away
Speaker 1: from both these offenses in a tough game. But Latavia's
Speaker 1: Murray wasn't awful in this one. In this spot, he's
Speaker 1: been a desperation flex. I thought that was interesting. Obviously,
Speaker 1: Alvi Kamara out snapped him heavily out of carried him heavily.
Speaker 1: The whole deal. Ladavias Murray wasn't a zero. He was
Speaker 1: not seven carries for sixty nine yards gigety nine point
Speaker 1: nine yards per attempt for Latavius Murray. Alvin Kamara, Man,
Speaker 1: what is going on? It tweeted this how yesterday drink
Speaker 1: in a season where just crazy things happened. This happens
Speaker 1: every fantasy football season. So I'm not just gonna say
Speaker 1: this is the craziest season of all time, because there
Speaker 1: are crazy things that happened every single season. And I
Speaker 1: understand touchdown regression was going to hit Alvin Kamara at something,
Speaker 1: But this guy has not scored a touchdown since Week three.
Speaker 1: He has two touchdowns on the season. They both came
Speaker 1: in Week three. What is going on with Alvin Kamara
Speaker 1: right now? Greg? I will tell you I don't think
Speaker 1: that he is healthy. He has not looked the same
Speaker 1: since he has returned from that ankle injury. I think
Speaker 1: that Kamara has been one of the biggest losers, not
Speaker 1: just this week but recently. And if Jared Cook is
Speaker 1: out next week, Josh Hill We're back might actually be
Speaker 1: a thing. Josh Hill season returns just in time to
Speaker 1: when you're a championship. I want to be the next

Speaker 1: Francisco New Orleans, any of the San Francisco four Niners
Speaker 1: defeating New Orleans in New Orleans, which means they are
Speaker 1: in control of her own destiny of that number one
Speaker 1: overall seed in the NFC A. How do you leave
Speaker 1: George Kittle in one on one coverage in that situation
Speaker 1: fourth and two? You have to know who they're gonna
Speaker 1: go to there, he is the go to guy. You
Speaker 1: leave him in single coverage. I mean it was almost
Speaker 1: too easy for the San Francisco forty Niners at that
Speaker 1: point wild and it came on fourth down. Which is
Speaker 1: just insane. He's getting his face mask pulled around and
Speaker 1: he's still just driving people down the field. Just crazy
Speaker 1: game man, it was crazy. I mean the face mask
Speaker 1: and him just dragging dudes down. It was nuts wild.
Speaker 1: It's like one of those things you see in a
Speaker 1: cartoon or a movie, right, like the Big Kid kind
Speaker 1: of like the like the Jerome Bennetts commercial with the
Speaker 1: on your Flag football team. He's just like knocking people around.
Speaker 1: He's like dragging some dude on his back. That was
Speaker 1: basically George Kittle yesterday. Yeah, George Kittle was an absolute
Speaker 1: animal yesterday for the San Francisco fourt Niners and what
Speaker 1: was also a great game. He saw Kansas City and
Speaker 1: New England. What does New England have left? That's the question. More.
Speaker 1: Kansas City goes into Foxboro picks up a victory as
Speaker 1: the Patriots were not able to score from inside the
Speaker 1: five and the game the last time you saw that
Speaker 1: Patriots get all the way down there and not convert
Speaker 1: a great play that quarterback for Kansas City getting his
Speaker 1: hand in there on Julian Edelman. Uh. The Chiefs of course,
Speaker 1: full of trick plays and treating, including Travis Kelsey rushing
Speaker 1: for a touchdown. Not to be out done the Patriots
Speaker 1: as well with um a flee flicker touchdown to Julian
Speaker 1: Edelman James White throwing a forty yards or thirty five
Speaker 1: yard pass. It was a day full of tricks, with
Speaker 1: Kansas City getting the last laugh. And I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: give a heads up a warning to Patriots fans or
Speaker 1: anyone listening or watching right now who lives in the
Speaker 1: uh the Boston area, that the New England area, How
Speaker 1: are you gonna boot the Patriots Maine? I like, come on, man,
Speaker 1: I heard gave talk about this this morning. They're booing
Speaker 1: him going into halftime. Yes, this offense is struggling, and
Speaker 1: you know, some things didn't break right down the stretch
Speaker 1: and not having a challenge there. You know, the guy
Speaker 1: clearly did not step out and scored a touchdown to
Speaker 1: kill Harry on that you know, toe tap down the sideline.
Speaker 1: And it's unfortunate, but how many things have gone the
Speaker 1: Patriots way over the past couple of seasons. So it
Speaker 1: is what it is. You know, Jacoby Meyers should have
Speaker 1: held onto that touchdown. Some bad luck involved here. If
Speaker 1: you started Tom Brady, you're probably not moving on to
Speaker 1: your to the next round of your fantasy football playoffs, Graig,
Speaker 1: I think the only player that you can start in
Speaker 1: this offense right now, confidently is Julian Edelman, And I
Speaker 1: don't think that it's close even in a good matchup yesterday,
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle, Dude, Sony Michelle five carries for eight yards?
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? I think James White, Like, I
Speaker 1: know James mightn't really come as a flex and PPR leagues,
Speaker 1: but I think, like the only must start player is
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, and I think it's obvious. Yeah. And and
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes on the other side. Look, you want to
Speaker 1: talk about Alvin Kamara not living up to expectations, here,
Speaker 1: say Kwon Barkley. I know that Patrick Mahomes is dealing
Speaker 1: with a lot of injuries and they're still winning hands. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but he should be good. There was I saw a
Speaker 1: report that came out earlier before the show started that
Speaker 1: Andy Reid says that he should be good to go
Speaker 1: heading into week fifteen. He's clearly not one. He's not
Speaker 1: playing healthy. They were talking about it on the broadcast yesterday.
Speaker 1: Yards and a touchdown. He threw that touchdown to Mikole Hardman,
Speaker 1: which was basically all Hardman, you know, just got the
Speaker 1: ball barely there and then Mikole Hardman turns on the
Speaker 1: jets and scores, uh, blowing past the defender. But ultimately,
Speaker 1: you know, Patrick Mahomes has not lived up to expectations
Speaker 1: from a fantasy perspective either. There are no winners in
Speaker 1: this backfield, Greg Lashawn McCoy eleven carries for thirty nine yards, sure, whatever,
Speaker 1: that's fine, Like he dominated the workload but didn't really
Speaker 1: do anything with it. Darwin Thompson four carries for seven yards.
Speaker 1: Spencer wear was involved. This is just a complete mess.
Speaker 1: I would say everybody involved in the for uh the
Speaker 1: Chiefs backfield or losers? Greg, I would say so because
Speaker 1: it was the return of Spencer were yesterday who played
Speaker 1: over the snaps more than Darwin Thompson, more than Lesha lecoy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was. You know, all three of these guys were
Speaker 1: involved and they've been doing that all season long with
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs, but in a tough matchup against
Speaker 1: the Newland Patriots, nobody was able to step up and
Speaker 1: make the most out of it. Uh, Darwin Thompson to
Speaker 1: have the four receptions, which I guess helped his day
Speaker 1: in a PPR league, but overall not great. Kelsey scores
Speaker 1: the rushing touchdown on the trick player. As you mentioned,
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill, back to back tough games. But again Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes not himself and this was a tough matchup. I
Speaker 1: think if I told you beforehand that you would have
Speaker 1: wind up with six verse sixty two in a game
Speaker 1: that the Chiefs only scored twenty three points out of
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill, you would be okay with it. You don't
Speaker 1: love it. But he didn't completely done in this game. No,
Speaker 1: he didn't. I a Tyreek Hill guy. Um, he didn't. Dog.
Speaker 1: He was a little loser, more of an a s.
Speaker 1: Speaking of winners losers, let's talk more about that in
Speaker 1: a segment. We'd like to call winners losers in just
Speaker 1: not playing. We're losers, losers. We're losers here on the
Speaker 1: BFFs losers. You suck. You are one pathetic loser, and
Speaker 1: oh man, I have no idea what's going on? All
Speaker 1: right there? You winners losers and right here on the
Speaker 1: Sports Grid Network, thanks for joining us here on Pluto TV.
Speaker 1: Of course we hit on the Chiefs, We hit on
Speaker 1: the UH New England Patriots. Let's keep going. Baltimore Ravens
Speaker 1: and the Buffalo Bills. Good game out there in Orchard
Speaker 1: Park in Buffalo. With Baltimore UH surviving that game against
Speaker 1: the Bills. Buffalo had a chance, could not get it done.
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson does his thing, um and the Ravens get
Speaker 1: by Buffalo ranky, Yes they do. They end up winning
Speaker 1: by a touchdown. I know the spread closed right around
Speaker 1: six six and a half, so potentially a very big
Speaker 1: win for Ravens betters or a tough loss for some
Speaker 1: of the Bills betterers. I know we have a few
Speaker 1: of those here on the network. Lamar Jackson only rushes
Speaker 1: for forty yards. It's almost like you consider that a
Speaker 1: down game at this point. Still throws for three touchdowns.
Speaker 1: We've got to see what's going on with Mark Andrews
Speaker 1: greg because he's been one of the best tight ends
Speaker 1: all season long from a fantasy football perspective. He left
Speaker 1: this game early due to a continue in his leg.
Speaker 1: As of now, it doesn't sound too serious, but monitored
Speaker 1: that throughout the week. If you are a Mark Andrew's
Speaker 1: owner and you have a dead roster spot, you might
Speaker 1: want to cover yourself by picking up a Hayden Hurst
Speaker 1: as a tight end handcuff. I didn't know that those
Speaker 1: were the thing, but in this Ravens offense, you do
Speaker 1: want whatever tight end is going to be starting and
Speaker 1: running the most routes because Lamar Jackson does like to
Speaker 1: throw to the tight end. We saw Hayden Hurst really
Speaker 1: a long sixty one yard touchdown yesterday. Hollywood Brown tough
Speaker 1: match up here against the Buffalo Bill secondary. Three receptions
Speaker 1: minus two yards. A very clear loser is Hollywood Brown.
Speaker 1: On the other side, Greg Devin Singletary Seventeen rushes for
Speaker 1: eighty nine yards. He is the guy, without a doubt.
Speaker 1: This is now. I think four or five straight weeks
Speaker 1: seventy percent or more of the snaps for Devin Singletary
Speaker 1: and he comes through here. You know, the Ravens defense
Speaker 1: is really good, but I think that you actually can
Speaker 1: target running backs against him. So don't be completely scared
Speaker 1: away from this defense. From a fantasy perspective, you can
Speaker 1: run a little bit against this Baltimore Ravens defense. When
Speaker 1: it comes to the receiver's John Brown loser, huge dud.
Speaker 1: Three receptions for twenty nine yards. Cole Beasley gets in
Speaker 1: the end zone again. He has now become the most
Speaker 1: consistent fantasy option over the past three weeks Greg with
Speaker 1: with John Brown seeing more of those tougher matchups on
Speaker 1: the outside. Alrighty, John Brown seeing the matchups. Col Basley
Speaker 1: extremely reliable here for the Buffalo Bills in any matchup,
Speaker 1: and that's what Cold Beasley has become for this team.
Speaker 1: Imagining Mark Andrews and that injury, it seems minor will
Speaker 1: see the plays this week. Hayden Hurst and Nick Boyle
Speaker 1: both become options for you off the waiver wire. And
Speaker 1: it's interesting, Frankie, because the tight ends a lot of
Speaker 1: guys out there this week. Yeah, there are a lot
Speaker 1: of streaming tight ends that we'll talk about on tomorrow show.
Speaker 1: We do the waiver wire heading into week fifteen for
Speaker 1: those that are still alive in their Fantasy football playoffs
Speaker 1: or potentially playing in a consolation bracket, whatever it might be.
Speaker 1: Uh Ian Thomas is one that's gonna make a lot
Speaker 1: of sense if Greg Olsen is out. Gotta pay attention
Speaker 1: to know a fan to see if he's healthy. But
Speaker 1: he just had a big game. David and Joke, who
Speaker 1: comes to mind going up against the Cardinals, and then
Speaker 1: obviously everything going on here with the Baltimore Ravens. Uh,
Speaker 1: pay attention to Mark Andrews. If you can't go, I
Speaker 1: think Hayden Hurst of the two would be the one
Speaker 1: that I target. I agree with that Hayden Hurrist was
Speaker 1: running that Mark Andrews route all the way to the
Speaker 1: end zone to open up that second half. It makes
Speaker 1: sense he's clearly the one to target for me as well.
Speaker 1: Let me go to another injury, Frank, that's always saw
Speaker 1: in Washington with your boy Darius Guys hurt his knee.
Speaker 1: An unfortunate loser yesterday was Darius Guys that made Adrian
Speaker 1: Peterson a big winner in Washington's lost a Green Bay. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: the Washington Redskins kept this game close, and it sucks
Speaker 1: for Darius Guys because he was running well early on.
Speaker 1: I actually put out five prop bets on Twitter yesterday
Speaker 1: before the one o'clock game started, and Darius Guys prop
Speaker 1: was forty and a half rushing yards. He went over
Speaker 1: that in just five carries, so it looked like he
Speaker 1: was on his way to having a big day here.
Speaker 1: But now they're saying they think it's an m c
Speaker 1: l S frame which would likely keep him out for
Speaker 1: the rest of the season. It's to the same knee
Speaker 1: that he suffered the a C L T hair during
Speaker 1: the preseason of last year. So I don't think they
Speaker 1: we'll see Darius Guys again. But as we will talk
Speaker 1: about on the Waiver Wire Show again tomorrow, Adrian Peterson
Speaker 1: one of, if not the top waiver wire ad this
Speaker 1: week twenty carries seventy six yards and a touchdown. You know,
Speaker 1: Bill Callahan, the interim head coach of Washington, wants to
Speaker 1: run the football, and we saw that in the games
Speaker 1: before Darius Guy's return. Adrian Peterson was seeing that big workload.
Speaker 1: So I do think that, you know, even in tougher matchups,
Speaker 1: the volume will be there for Adrian Peterson and this
Speaker 1: might be the last time that we see Adrian Peterson
Speaker 1: in a big role for a team. Greg What better
Speaker 1: way for him to go out from a fantasy football
Speaker 1: perspective than winning people fantasy playoff matchups and championships. I
Speaker 1: think it makes a lot of sense. A p back
Speaker 1: in the mix, ELI back in the mix. It's great
Speaker 1: man the NFC East. Let's go crushing in man crushing,
Speaker 1: all right. I want to be the next Daily Fantasy Millionaire.

Speaker 1: Adrian Peter doesn't even Terry McLaurin found the zone yesterday
Speaker 1: on a circus catch. That was awesome. Another terrible thrill
Speaker 1: by Tween Haskins. That was all McLaurin. He's very bad.
Speaker 1: He is very bad, very very bad. Should feel pretty
Speaker 1: good about I guess having Daniel Jones. He's not playing,
Speaker 1: but Daniel Jones has showed more upside thing Dwayne Haskins,
Speaker 1: for sure. He's certainly better than joying Haskins. There's no
Speaker 1: doubt about that. Yeahs Now he is. There's no doubt
Speaker 1: to change that. Daniel Jones is better than Dayne Haskins.
Speaker 1: Better than tell you that he's better than Drew Lock,
Speaker 1: but he's definitely better. Thought was in the second for
Speaker 1: Green Bay Rodge the loser Man Rogers a big loser yesterday.
Speaker 1: He's a loser from a fantasy perspective, for sure. I
Speaker 1: mean he's doing that. Yeah, He's doing what he needs
Speaker 1: to do to win games in the NFL, which is fine.
Speaker 1: I think that's what they've done all season long. Matt
Speaker 1: Lafleur has really relied on the running backs so far
Speaker 1: this season, and in games where they have to get out,
Speaker 1: get and shootouts, in competitive games, those back and forth games.
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers has showed us that he can still put
Speaker 1: up with the best of them. He could still make
Speaker 1: all the throws, he could still have monster games, but
Speaker 1: it's just not a necessity at this point in his
Speaker 1: career anymore. He is older. They are playing better defense
Speaker 1: this year. They're doing just enough to be able to
Speaker 1: win games, and and that's what how they're going to
Speaker 1: continue to do this. It's what they've done all season long.
Speaker 1: But you're right, Greg, I mean, it wouldn't be crazy
Speaker 1: to imagine benching Aaron Rodgers next week, who is at
Speaker 1: home against the Chicago Bears. The Bears have been great
Speaker 1: against quarterbacks this season, so you know we did the
Speaker 1: fandal hurry up earlier about Waiver wire quarterbacks Gardner, Minshew,
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick. If they're out there, maybe even a Drew Lock.
Speaker 1: You gotta look into these matchups here because I don't
Speaker 1: know that Aaron Rodgers is going to have a big
Speaker 1: fantasy game against the Chicago Bears. Just hasn't been there
Speaker 1: all season long. A big bounceback game for Aaron Jones,
Speaker 1: very big winner, Greg. Yesterday didn't dominate snaps, but that's
Speaker 1: basically been the case. Do you know the past seven
Speaker 1: eight weeks, right, He's been between fifty and sixty five
Speaker 1: percent of the snaps each of those games. He doesn't
Speaker 1: dominate snaps, but he did dominate work here. Sixteen carries
Speaker 1: for a hundred and thirty four yards a rushing touchdown,
Speaker 1: compared to just seven carries and twenty four yards for
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams. Aaron Jones was also the leader in targets, receptions,
Speaker 1: and receiving yards for the Green Bay Packers. Wouldn't surprise
Speaker 1: me if again he lets you down next week, just
Speaker 1: because he has been inconsistent. But in these better matchups,
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones reminds is what he's capable of. He is
Speaker 1: a winner. From Week fourteen, he was awesome. He's gonna
Speaker 1: winner most of this year. I I just did to
Speaker 1: see where he goes next year. Aaron Jones, he's a
Speaker 1: solid second round pick, is what it is. I don't
Speaker 1: know that he's a second round pick. I could see
Speaker 1: him going similar to where he went this year, you know,
Speaker 1: just settling in in the third round, maybe moving up
Speaker 1: to the early third round. But I don't think that
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams is gonna go away in games that they
Speaker 1: fall behind that have also been competitive, we've seen Jamal
Speaker 1: Williams on the field more playing that pass catcher's role.
Speaker 1: Although Aaron Jones is a good pass catcher. It seems
Speaker 1: like there hasn't really been a rhyme or reason too.
Speaker 1: You know, when Aaron Jones he's a big workload versus
Speaker 1: when Jamal Williams does so. It's been frustrating from that regard.
Speaker 1: The snaps have been very interested. Uh, you know, even
Speaker 1: as well. So I think that the efficiency is there
Speaker 1: for Aaron Jones again this year. He has upside to
Speaker 1: have big games, a solid offensive line ahead of him.
Speaker 1: I think all of those things will likely keep him
Speaker 1: as a you know, low n RB one, high n
Speaker 1: RB two heading into next season. Right there you go
Speaker 1: that story on Aaron Jones. I mentioned Drew Lock. Let's
Speaker 1: get into what Drew Lock yesterday. He did. He was
Speaker 1: a huge winner yesterday for the Devon Brackos. Never Rackos
Speaker 1: spanked Houston Texas yesterday over the knee, just NonStop. Right.
Speaker 1: We were talking yesterday via text Bill O'Brien, Man, what
Speaker 1: is up with this guy? I mean, the guy's favored
Speaker 1: by nine and a half points at home, coming off
Speaker 1: a huge win against the New England Patriots, and you
Speaker 1: have this performance against the Denver Broncos. Man, what is
Speaker 1: going on here? You know, de Shaun Watson still made
Speaker 1: the most out of his day because he threw for
Speaker 1: a touchdown and he had two rushing touchdowns, but two interceptions. Here.
Speaker 1: They couldn't really do anything on the ground. The defense
Speaker 1: was putrid from the Houston Texans yesterday. I mean, how
Speaker 1: is this the same team that beat the New England
Speaker 1: Patriots the week before. I just it is so confounding
Speaker 1: when it comes to Bill O'Brien and this team and
Speaker 1: now they basically control their own destiny because they faced
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans twice in the next three games, and
Speaker 1: those games are going to decide who wins the a
Speaker 1: f C South. It wouldn't surprobably one bit that if
Speaker 1: the Texans falter in those games, Bill O'Brien is out
Speaker 1: for the Houston Texans. We'll see what happens. He's not
Speaker 1: gonna fire himself. Well, I gotta do something, don't they.
Speaker 1: It's just so ridiculous. May look, it's you're probably right,
Speaker 1: Mike Rabel Man, this Ryan Tanne and we will get
Speaker 1: into that just one second. But yeah, it's it's just
Speaker 1: insane what they're doing, rightw I never thought that, you know,
Speaker 1: based on the offensive game that we saw out of
Speaker 1: the Titans on that Thursday night football game against the
Speaker 1: Jaguars earlier in the season, it seems like that was
Speaker 1: five years ago. What is going on with the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 1: We will get into that, but back to Drew Lock,
Speaker 1: Like this guy is their offensive Cordinet and they're succeeding. Uh.
Speaker 1: That that is a picture of Arthur Smith. We were
Speaker 1: crushing him about two months ago. Uh. A lot can
Speaker 1: change in two months, as we've seen with the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 1: Back to Drew Lock. He only had five incompletions yesterday,
Speaker 1: eleven point four yards. Pert tempt big play after big
Speaker 1: play to Noah Fan had some big ones. Tim Patrick
Speaker 1: had a big catch in this game. Jeff, can you
Speaker 1: take me? Hi? You're man scores a touchdown and Greig
Speaker 1: in a game where they scored thirty eight points, Cortland
Speaker 1: Sutton has thirty four receiving nuts. Right, just this is
Speaker 1: just fantasy football at its finest. Cortland Sutton is still
Speaker 1: a wide receiver to he still sees a lot of volume.
Speaker 1: He can make plays against the best corners. We saw
Speaker 1: that last week against Casey Haward. This was a letdown.
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna go back to Courtland Sutton. But I
Speaker 1: think Drew Lock is at least working his way into
Speaker 1: super flex territory right now. Greg, Yeah, he's all the
Speaker 1: radar man. I rather Drew Lock than Kyle Allen, tell
Speaker 1: you how much. Yeah, it's hard to argue with that.
Speaker 1: And next week they go up against Kansas City and
Speaker 1: I've already seen that there's a there's a big total
Speaker 1: in that game. It is tough to go into Kansas City.
Speaker 1: It's a it's a tougher place to play. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be cold in Kansas City as well. But the way
Speaker 1: that Drew Lock is playing right now, if you're playing
Speaker 1: a two quarterback league, super flex, I think that you
Speaker 1: get him in there against Kansas City. I agree. No
Speaker 1: issue with me in a super flex league starting Drew Lock.
Speaker 1: And when you need a streaming quarterback, there are other
Speaker 1: options out there. What's up with that tomorrow on the show? Um,
Speaker 1: But Drew Lock and super Flex, I'm totally totally cool.
Speaker 1: Big winner, Big Winter. On the other side for Houston,
Speaker 1: out of not out of nowhere, but will fuller out
Speaker 1: again with a freaking hamstring strand you're practicing full on Friday,
Speaker 1: and it's just more of the same for the Houston Texas.
Speaker 1: This team is just hard to figure out. There are
Speaker 1: a few teams like this, Greg, it's just doctor Jacqueline
Speaker 1: mr Hyde every single week. The Atlanta Falcons were one
Speaker 1: of those teams. They come out of there by they
Speaker 1: beat the New Orleans Saints. Got to say Dr jacko, Mr.
Speaker 1: Hid because Yafens is good fantasy bouses. The Texans, Yes,
Speaker 1: janj Hopkins was awesome. He was, I mean he still
Speaker 1: They ended up putting up a good game. DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 1: had a big game seven for one, twenty and a touchdown,
Speaker 1: thirteen targets. But I think some people were looking at
Speaker 1: Kenny Stills to fill in for will Fuller here Greg
Speaker 1: he did not show up. He has not shown up
Speaker 1: in any of the games that will Fuller has missed.
Speaker 1: So that narrative that oh we can use Will Fuller
Speaker 1: in games where Kenny Stills is out, that is gone,
Speaker 1: that is no longer existing. Jordan Aikins seems like he
Speaker 1: has taken over as the pass catching tight end over
Speaker 1: Darren Fells. Nine targets yesterday for Jordan Aikins. The Texans
Speaker 1: themselves are huge losers, but from a fantasy perspective, they
Speaker 1: did actually do what you wanted. Even Carlos Hyde, in
Speaker 1: a game where they were getting destroyed fourteen carries for
Speaker 1: seventy three yards, continues to be his flex self every
Speaker 1: single week in RB three. You know, I thought this
Speaker 1: was gonna be a Duke Johnson spot and from a
Speaker 1: PBR perspective, six for forty five. I thought that he
Speaker 1: was gonna have a bigger game here, Greg because it's
Speaker 1: easier to throw to the running back against the Broncos
Speaker 1: and they were trailing the whole time. I was expecting
Speaker 1: a bigger game out of Duke Johnson. I like the
Speaker 1: eight targets, so I'll put him in the category. But
Speaker 1: still a bit of a letdown for me. Fair enough,
Speaker 1: fair enough, um. I mentioned what Drew Lock did yesterday,
Speaker 1: and there's some other quarterbacks that obviously went off, but
Speaker 1: none bigger than the Titans and Ryan Tannehill. Where Ryan
Speaker 1: down Hill is putting up Lamar Jackson type passing numbers
Speaker 1: at this point, it's like him and Lamar Jackson has
Speaker 1: been the Zo Bigs offensive weapons the second half since
Speaker 1: he has become the starter. Lamar Jackson's QB one, Ryan
Speaker 1: Tannehill's QB two. That's how good Ryan Tannehill has been
Speaker 1: quarterback too, since taking over from Marcus Mariana what seven
Speaker 1: or so weeks ago, He's been that great. And you know,
Speaker 1: the schedule is what it is. Tannehill is playing the
Speaker 1: schedule that he has He's been amazing. He has breathed
Speaker 1: life into the Titans team. Now probably a huge step
Speaker 1: back is looking at the Tannehill and will stuck next year.
Speaker 1: But nevertheless, eas don't buy him in a dynasty league now.
Speaker 1: A J. Brown has been fantastic. Derrick Henry as long
Speaker 1: as he's healthy, has been fantastic. Ryan Tannehill has been
Speaker 1: stortable every week. You take the name off the back
Speaker 1: of the jersey, you don't care if this is Ryan Tannehill.
Speaker 1: He's never thrown the ball deep like he is now.
Speaker 1: He's been unbelievable and yesterday was more of the same.
Speaker 1: And I think this is you know, I gotta bring
Speaker 1: it back to my Jets and Adam Gates. Of course,
Speaker 1: what kind of indictment is this? Right? He never got
Speaker 1: this kind of play out of Ryan Tannehill when they
Speaker 1: were in Miami. They didn't let him throw the ball deep.
Speaker 1: We saw him throw a ball from his own end
Speaker 1: zone that ended up being a nine one yard touchdown
Speaker 1: to A J. Brown yesterday. This guy can make the
Speaker 1: throws if you put him in the right position and
Speaker 1: in the right matchups. He's had really good matchups and
Speaker 1: I had him as a top ten quarterback coming into
Speaker 1: this week, Greg, I think I had him as my
Speaker 1: QB eight or I was all over Ryan Tannehill here.
Speaker 1: The Oakland Raiders defense is terrible. You want to play
Speaker 1: whoever is going up against them next week? It's Gardner
Speaker 1: Minshew in the stash against this Oakland Raiders defense. Ryan
Speaker 1: Tannehill again. Two of his next three games are against
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans. Those are huge must win games for
Speaker 1: both of the teams. But we just sat Drew lock
Speaker 1: through for three touchdowns against this Texans defense. You can
Speaker 1: throw on them, and I think Ryan Tannehill will be
Speaker 1: able to do just that. Pay attention to Derrick henry
Speaker 1: He was getting a lot of treatment on this and
Speaker 1: that hamstring throughout the course of the game. Still still
Speaker 1: managed to run for a hundred yards and two touchdowns.
Speaker 1: Like it's nothing, Greg, Just like, oh yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I gotta gimpy hamstring whatever, I'll still run for a
Speaker 1: hundred yards and two touchdowns. Sorry, it's not the hundred
Speaker 1: and sixty yards it has been each of the past
Speaker 1: three weeks. Derrick Henry Man just a complete beast. A J. Brown.
Speaker 1: This guy's in YAHOO League's insane. Why is the only twenty. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: I understand that there are people out there you might
Speaker 1: have stacked wide receivers at this point in the play,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Pick up a J. Brown. He has
Speaker 1: been up and down, but when he's up, he is
Speaker 1: up and against the Texans, he should be able to
Speaker 1: do well in that matchup. Seven targets yesterday, lad this
Speaker 1: team five catches, a hundred fifty three yards, two touchdowns.
Speaker 1: He is everything the Titans and Dynasty players wanted Corey
Speaker 1: Davis to be and then so absolutely a J. Brown man,
Speaker 1: He's a man. He's gonna a high pick next year
Speaker 1: in fantasy drafts. Will come back on the other side,
Speaker 1: the other shocker of the day, Josh Jacobs man. We'll
Speaker 1: get into that on the other side. Hold on more
Speaker 1: to come if you have vest, roll on after this.

Speaker 1: did you know it's been one month since your birthday?
Speaker 1: And what most have been married? Happy one month versary
Speaker 1: you as well on your wedding. Great any buddy, I'm
Speaker 1: still married. Fel feels nothing has changed. It still hard
Speaker 1: to get out of bed. Sorry, what's wrong with me?
Speaker 1: That's when you get to forty? How does field? Greg?
Speaker 1: I don't lie to the people. I don't know. Josh
Speaker 1: Jacobs woke up feel like it was forty yesterday because
Speaker 1: out of nowhere, yesterday morning was like, h he may
Speaker 1: not play? What do you mean he he may not play?
Speaker 1: And then he didn't play. Josh Jacobs and voting a
Speaker 1: shoulder injury for a while yesterday. It cost him the
Speaker 1: game and may cost him his season. Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: know that we're gonna see Josh Jacobs again. He's playing
Speaker 1: through a fractured shoulder. The Oakland Raiders have lost three
Speaker 1: games in a row, really falling out of contention right now.
Speaker 1: They are six and seven. Statistically they still have a chance,
Speaker 1: but I don't know. That they're going to risk the
Speaker 1: health of their rookie running back, someone that they need
Speaker 1: for years to come, in order to try and climb
Speaker 1: back into this one. And look, DeAndre Washington did his
Speaker 1: best Josh Jacobs impression here, fourteen carries for fifty three yards.
Speaker 1: Didn't run all that efficiently, just three point eight yards carry.
Speaker 1: But if you did have that as a pivot option
Speaker 1: on your team, you know, in case you were worried
Speaker 1: about Josh Jacobs, we had those reports reports earlier in
Speaker 1: the day. If you picked up DeAndre Washington and pivoted
Speaker 1: to him, you are laughing onto the next round of
Speaker 1: your fantasy playoffs scores. The touchdown leads a team with
Speaker 1: seven targets, six receptions, forty three yards. That's the craziest
Speaker 1: part to me, Greg, Why was DeAndre Washington used as
Speaker 1: the pass catcher yesterday? Meanwhile, Josh Jacobs hasn't been used
Speaker 1: that way all season long. The seven targets, six receptions,
Speaker 1: and forty three receiving yards for DeAndre Washington were higher
Speaker 1: than any receiving totals for Josh Jacobs in the game
Speaker 1: all season long, So that was very odd for me.
Speaker 1: I understand they were playing from behind. But uh, nonetheless,
Speaker 1: DeAndre Washington a winner from yesterday. And if you didn't
Speaker 1: pick him up, and you are a Josh Jacob's owner
Speaker 1: and you somehow managed to advance, he will be the
Speaker 1: top priority on the waiver wire for you. Because they
Speaker 1: go up against the Jaguars, Greg and I need to
Speaker 1: remind you this is not an exaggeration. The Jaguars allowed
Speaker 1: three hundred total yards to Charges running backs yesterday and
Speaker 1: three touchdowns three hundred total yards. They even allowed a
Speaker 1: rushing touchdown to Derek Watt, their fullback. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: a great matchup for DeAndre Washington. DeAndre Washington in a huge,
Speaker 1: huge spot this weekend, and he is out there right.
Speaker 1: He's the number one guy you have to go out
Speaker 1: and get as a running back this weekend against Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: So Austin Ekeler and Melvin Gordon did yesterday gainst JACKSONVI.
Speaker 1: Let's bring it down a little bit further. The Chargers
Speaker 1: dismantled Jacksonville Jaguars yesterday. Frankie said, Ekeler and Gordon people
Speaker 1: are riding them right in the semifinals. Yeah, and Ekeler
Speaker 1: was on the field actually more than Melvin Gordon yesterday.
Speaker 1: I think they were kindly smart enough given give Melvin
Speaker 1: Gordon a little bit, a little bit of the day
Speaker 1: off here as they got up big and they were
Speaker 1: playing with the lead. Philip Rivers didn't even play in
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of this game, so Austin Ekeler winds
Speaker 1: up with forty nine percent of the snaps. Just a
Speaker 1: crazy game for eckler Man eight carries for a hundred
Speaker 1: and one yards, four receptions for a hundred and twelve
Speaker 1: receiving yards, and a touchdown. Just crazy efficiency continuing here
Speaker 1: for Austin Ekeler. And we told you last week that
Speaker 1: he was an RB too in this matchup, and he
Speaker 1: provided much more than that Melvin Gordon gets in the
Speaker 1: end zone. I think both of these guys are clear winners.
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers and the passing attack a winner from yesterday.
Speaker 1: He's not done yet. Three hundred yards, fourteen point three
Speaker 1: yards per attempt yesterday. This Jaguars team has just completely
Speaker 1: rolled over. You can play whoever you want against this
Speaker 1: Jaguars defense right now. Three touchdown passes for Philip Rivers.
Speaker 1: Austin Ekeler gets one of those. Mike Williams gets in
Speaker 1: the end zone here, Uh, first time on the season.
Speaker 1: Finally gets a touch reggression happened, maybe better late than never.
Speaker 1: I know a few people liked him in DFS. Hunter
Speaker 1: Henry scores a touchdown as well. It was fantasy goodness
Speaker 1: all around for the Los Angeles Charges, not for the
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars, where DJ Shark has a high ankle spring
Speaker 1: that make calls from the season. Frank, he's probably done here.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately he's a loser. It's not his fault, it's not
Speaker 1: performance for late still had ten targets, nine catches for
Speaker 1: seventy five yards. So g J Hart doing his part
Speaker 1: from a PPR perspective. But heading into next week, this
Speaker 1: matchup with Oakland right D D. Westfork is gonna be
Speaker 1: a prime time play against his Oakland Raiders secondary and
Speaker 1: and dare I say I will throw out the names
Speaker 1: Chris Connley and Keelan Cole if they gotta fill fill
Speaker 1: in for the those outside wide receiver spots for Gardner
Speaker 1: Minshew to have a target down the field to throw
Speaker 1: the ball to. I think that those guys are going
Speaker 1: to be in play. The Oakland Raiders have allowed the
Speaker 1: most twenty plus yard receptions and forty plus yard receptions,
Speaker 1: so you can make big plays against them. And I
Speaker 1: think that both both of Chris Conley and Keelan Cole
Speaker 1: are going to make four interesting pickups in deeper leagues.
Speaker 1: We'll see. I mean you again, deeper leagues. You want
Speaker 1: to throw them at. Match is actually really really good.
Speaker 1: Some people play, you know, two flexes like you do
Speaker 1: in your ideas. Gardner is one of those quarterbacks you're
Speaker 1: looking at for this. Yeah, look, he hasn't been great
Speaker 1: since he has returned to the starting role here. Um,
Speaker 1: But yeah, look it's hard to pass off on that matchup.
Speaker 1: And Leonard Fournett is not running efficiently right now, pretty
Speaker 1: much like you know, he hasn't his whole entire career.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think that they can take advantage and
Speaker 1: there's gonna be some points in that game between the
Speaker 1: Raiders and Jacksonville. I think Minshew is finitely In the
Speaker 1: streaming conversation, we hit on a lot of injuries. Let's
Speaker 1: go to Tampa Bay where Mike Evans hurt. He's growing,
Speaker 1: He's out for potentially the season. Was this growing Well,
Speaker 1: it's significant enough that he's gonna be out for probably
Speaker 1: the year, I said, Bruce arians will be a shock
Speaker 1: if he plays again this season comes on a touchdown
Speaker 1: cash for him, which is frustrating. It was everything you
Speaker 1: want out of a Javis WHI was the game yesterday, right,
Speaker 1: I tweeted out the box score and said, this is
Speaker 1: a microcosm of his career. So this is why I
Speaker 1: told everyone to pick up the Colts events last week,
Speaker 1: because yeah, they're got a lot of crapload of points,
Speaker 1: but they're gonna get picks, they're gonna get sacks, they're
Speaker 1: gonna get fumbos, and they're gonna get touchdowns. And they
Speaker 1: did all of that. Frankie, that's exactly what they did.
Speaker 1: You look at the box score in one look. I
Speaker 1: think the funniest part was that you even got four
Speaker 1: past attempts out of Ryan Griffin. Somehow James got hurt. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he got hurt. And that is actually a big storyline
Speaker 1: to pay attention to because as of now, the last
Speaker 1: report that I saw was that he's going for a
Speaker 1: second opinion on his hand injury, and normally whenever you
Speaker 1: see that, it's not good things. So obviously that he
Speaker 1: has huge implications for Chris Oddwin the rest of this offense.
Speaker 1: O J. Howard back from the dead. Five targets, four
Speaker 1: receptions for seventy five yards. I know his snatch and
Speaker 1: routes run have been up over the past couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: So again we're bringing up O. J. Howard. Look, if
Speaker 1: no Mike Evans is around, they need someone to throw
Speaker 1: the ball to. This team is not running bad. Perriman
Speaker 1: is gonna be in the mix. I know. I saw
Speaker 1: a lot of people on the Dynasty Fantasy Twitter yesterday
Speaker 1: talking up Justin Watson. If you look at his player
Speaker 1: profiler page, he does rank highly in a lot of
Speaker 1: those agility and speed metrics that we like to see
Speaker 1: coming out of college. He's a bigger receiver as well
Speaker 1: in Justin Watson. So you know he had eight targets
Speaker 1: to just five four Brashod Perriman. Perriman had more snass,
Speaker 1: Watson had more targets. You know, if if Winston is
Speaker 1: looking Watson's way, I'm definitely gonna have some interest. Because
Speaker 1: the team cannot run the football. They like to throw
Speaker 1: and throw and throw some more. So, um, if you
Speaker 1: need a waiver wire wide receiver you lost Mike Evans,
Speaker 1: I think that you can look within this team to
Speaker 1: find the replacement there. Greg, Yeah, that's that makes sense.
Speaker 1: You want to stay on that team. Another wide receiver injury,
Speaker 1: So DeVante Parker get concussed. DeVante Parker. I'll go back
Speaker 1: to the colt in a second. But like DeVante Parker,
Speaker 1: he gets concusted. Desperate for wide receivers. You think Alan
Speaker 1: Hearns can be somebody that's out there, Um, Albert Wilson,
Speaker 1: we go back down to that rabbit hole. Isaiah Ford, Graig,
Speaker 1: what can you tell me about Isaiah Ford? Nothing? Isaiah
Speaker 1: Ford lead this team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards yesterday,
Speaker 1: and the Dolphins can't run the football. While you know
Speaker 1: our layerd and Savior as they like to call him
Speaker 1: on Twitter nowadays. Uh, he had a solid game in
Speaker 1: terms of his workload. Fifteen carries, forty eight yards three
Speaker 1: point two yards for carry. Not great, but he didn't
Speaker 1: have five targets. So they can't run the football. They're
Speaker 1: using layered as an extension of the run game with
Speaker 1: short passes like we thought they would use him. But
Speaker 1: ultimately they're gonna end up throwing the ball. The volume
Speaker 1: is gonna be there for Fitzpatrick and I think Isaiah
Speaker 1: Ford and Alan Hearns if DeVante Parker is ruled out
Speaker 1: for sure in a really good matchup against the Giants,
Speaker 1: are going to make a lot of sense in Week fifteen, Greg.
Speaker 1: But you know, getting back to the Indianapolis Colts, as
Speaker 1: you mentioned, Marlon Mack first came back, did not run efficially,
Speaker 1: but he scored a touchdown, So I think you feel
Speaker 1: pretty good about that performance. You feel really good about
Speaker 1: Jack Pascal as well, who is the clear number one
Speaker 1: wide receiver of the Colts. A touchdown followed by a
Speaker 1: two point conversion. He was great. Jack Doyle, Greg, what
Speaker 1: happened to Big Jackie d Man? He snaps? Are there
Speaker 1: the targets are that you tell me before this game
Speaker 1: that the Cults are gonna put up thirty five points
Speaker 1: and Jack Doyle only has twenty seven receiving yards. I
Speaker 1: would have probably told you he gets hurt on the
Speaker 1: first drive of the game. But yeah, definitely a loser
Speaker 1: from yesterday Jack Doyle. I'm not going to completely get
Speaker 1: away from him. I know the not at from tap
Speaker 1: was tough against tight ends, Man, they are a lot
Speaker 1: a lot of fantasy points of tight ends this year.
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Now they're like top three, they're
Speaker 1: like like the third, like the second or third most
Speaker 1: Fantasy points at sight ends. So I love this matchup.
Speaker 1: I had Jack Doyle ranked inside my top seven going
Speaker 1: against the Saints next week. They are actually tougher against
Speaker 1: the tight end, but there should be some points. They're
Speaker 1: going into the home there and like we just saw,
Speaker 1: you know, George Kittle had a solid game against the Saints.
Speaker 1: You gotta go back to Jack Doyle, Pascal big winner
Speaker 1: from yesterday. Marcus Johnson. Can I interest you and Marcus
Speaker 1: Johnson in deeper leagues? He is the one that's seeing
Speaker 1: the deep routes, the high average depth of target here
Speaker 1: for the Indianapolis Colts. Um, yeah, I think that ever
Speaker 1: they um you know when Marcus Johnson and Zach Pascal
Speaker 1: and Marlon Mack and even Jacoby Ever said, I think
Speaker 1: everybody on this offense was a winner yesterday outside of
Speaker 1: Jack Toyle. You mentioned Miami a moment ago anything on
Speaker 1: the Jets ball boom boom power. Getting the start for
Speaker 1: Levy on Bell kind of weird, right, Like most players
Speaker 1: played through an illness and this is like mono. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: this is like Jets itis. He just doesn't want to
Speaker 1: play for the Jets any everything and everything you read
Speaker 1: everything he read, it was like it was like the
Speaker 1: same illness going around the league. But Levian can play
Speaker 1: through the sideline still, So yeah, again, I think this
Speaker 1: is just he's got a bad case of the jets here, Greg,
Speaker 1: you didn't want to get out there and play against
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins At this point, Levan Bell is like,
Speaker 1: all right, what I'm making my money, I'll sit out
Speaker 1: a game here. You know he should be back next
Speaker 1: next week. I would assume I will pay attention to
Speaker 1: that when it comes to Levy on Bell, but you know,
Speaker 1: save it for next year. I guess whatever it might be.
Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson huge winner. I was on his prop yesterday,
Speaker 1: I was on Zach Pascal, I was on Tyler Higby.
Speaker 1: Hit on all three of those. A little bit of
Speaker 1: a backpack for myself. Robbie Anderson eleven targets here, and
Speaker 1: this is what he does every single year, Greg. As
Speaker 1: we get into the Fantasy football playoffs final months of
Speaker 1: the season, Robbie Anderson always shows up. Jamison Crowder huge loser.
Speaker 1: You were right, Greig, we cannot go back to Jamison Crowder,
Speaker 1: the usage has not been there. He had seven targets,
Speaker 1: but for whatever reason, he is not on the same
Speaker 1: page as Sam Donald right now. Robbie Anderson is that guy.
Speaker 1: Tougher game though, Thursday Night Football against the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 1: I think Robbie Anderson will be more of a lower
Speaker 1: end wide receiver three. I really don't want to target
Speaker 1: outside wide receivers against this Ravens defense right now. But
Speaker 1: the targets have been there for Robbie, so he's a
Speaker 1: boom er bus play. Maybe he can catch a touchdown
Speaker 1: against the Ravens, but that's a really, really tough spot.
Speaker 1: He's a winner. But this whole situation is because I
Speaker 1: don't like the matchup going into Week fifteen. Great, fair enough,
Speaker 1: you don't like the matchup either, to why I can't
Speaker 1: start Robby Anderson in their spot against the Baltimore Revages,
Speaker 1: not even as a low end wide receiver three, just
Speaker 1: not so uncomfortable. Targets have been there for him. I understand.
Speaker 1: I get it, it's a tough spot, but they're likely
Speaker 1: playing from behind. You can't talk about injuries with that mention,
Speaker 1: would have it a shot. Penny last night for the
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. He goes down in the first quarter with
Speaker 1: a knee injury, a significant knee injury. He's going to
Speaker 1: be out for this season. It looks like, according to
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll, he leaves Chris Carson because of all this
Speaker 1: natural the CJ process was back until he gets hurt again.
Speaker 1: No doubt, um the Seahawks get demolished by the Rams
Speaker 1: last night, that it caused us to lose us Frank
Speaker 1: mentioned at the top of the show. But the big
Speaker 1: story that game from a fantasy perspective, it wasn't Robert
Speaker 1: Woods finally getting the end zone. Wasn't ty Girley being awesome. Hell,
Speaker 1: it wasn't even Tyler hab dominating as a tight end
Speaker 1: one yet again, it's Cooper Cup And even though he's
Speaker 1: got a touchdown, he barely played. He barely played. The
Speaker 1: snaps have been down the past couple of weeks. I
Speaker 1: don't know that he is in the doghouse because of
Speaker 1: something he's done. I saw on Twitter people were speculating that,
Speaker 1: you know, he's he dropped the pass that led to
Speaker 1: an interception, and I think he had like a fumble
Speaker 1: a week or two ago. So I don't think that
Speaker 1: he is in the doghouse. I guess it's a possibility
Speaker 1: maybe he's playing through an injury. But what they are
Speaker 1: doing Greg is they're getting back to Todd Gurley, and
Speaker 1: I think because of that, they're playing more twelve personnel
Speaker 1: sets where they have two tight ends on the field,
Speaker 1: and that has led to less playing time for their
Speaker 1: three wide receiver sets. I don't know why they wouldn't
Speaker 1: use Cooper Cup on the outside. Brandon Cooks has given
Speaker 1: us a donut two games in a row. But but
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, this is a situation a monitor. We'll
Speaker 1: see if we could get some answers throughout the course
Speaker 1: of the week. I have a feeling that a few
Speaker 1: of the Beat reporters will be asking Sean McVeigh about
Speaker 1: this when it comes to Cooper Cup. But Todd Gurley
Speaker 1: is back to getting these huge workloads. Greg touchdown early yesterday,
Speaker 1: scoring a touchdown early, Todd Gurley still wound up getting
Speaker 1: in the end zone, didn't run efficiently, but twenty seven
Speaker 1: touches and he has seen his workload go up the
Speaker 1: past couple of weeks for the Los Angeles Rams, and
Speaker 1: maybe this is what they were saving him for Greg.
Speaker 1: You know, maybe they were giving him that early on
Speaker 1: in the season. Little it might be, but for whatever
Speaker 1: reason now they're like, look, we can't fool around. We
Speaker 1: gotta get the ball in the hands of our best
Speaker 1: player right now. That's Todd Gurley and if Gerald Everett
Speaker 1: Everett misses any more time, Tyler Higby is a legit
Speaker 1: tight end one, legitimately a tight end one. Both Scarborough
Speaker 1: got hurt late in the Minnesota blowout, Oh Detroit, Dalvin
Speaker 1: Cook looked like himself and other gig away maker Mayfield
Speaker 1: stinks Baker Mayfield's thinks Tyler lockett Man huge loser again,
Speaker 1: just letting fantasy owners down weekend and week out. He's
Speaker 1: Franklin Greg go over waivers this week tomorrow. We want
Speaker 1: to be the next Daily Fantasy millionaire. Dunk on your

Speaker 1: What did Here's what you missed on the bp apps.
Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons destroyed the Carolina Panthers yesterday. Man Matt Ryan
Speaker 1: led the way, Demanti Freeman found the end zone for
Speaker 1: the first time of the season for Carolina. Ian Thomas
Speaker 1: got in the end zone. So this, uh, this destruction
Speaker 1: at the hands of Atlanta crippling Perry Fuels Carolina Panthers. Yes,
Speaker 1: very predictable here. Uh. You know, we didn't necessarily know
Speaker 1: which Panthers team was gonna show up No, Ron Rivera,
Speaker 1: and the answer on equivocally was a team that is
Speaker 1: basically mailing it in now that they fired their head coach,
Speaker 1: Ron Rivera. They get blown out in Atlanta Divisional game
Speaker 1: forty twenty. Here you mentioned DeVonta Freeman a lot of
Speaker 1: first yesterday, Greg, Devanta Freeman first raw touchdown, Mike Williams
Speaker 1: and Robert Woods against your BFFs, of course, first receiving
Speaker 1: touchdowns of the season. Better late than never, But I
Speaker 1: would consider Devantay Freeman a winner. Greg. You know, since
Speaker 1: he has returned, he is dominating the snaps. He played
Speaker 1: sixty seven of the snaps yesterday. Yes, it is a
Speaker 1: tougher match up against San Francisco heading into next week.
Speaker 1: But I think if you do want to attack the
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty niners one way, it's better to do
Speaker 1: so on the ground than through the air. I mean,
Speaker 1: their secondary has been great all year. Of course, they
Speaker 1: have an injury to Richard Sherman, so we'll have to
Speaker 1: monitor that. But Devonsay Freeman seventeen carries, eighty four yards
Speaker 1: and a touchdown. We knew this was a good spot
Speaker 1: against Carolina. You want to start all of your running
Speaker 1: backs against the Carolina Panthers, Yes, they are that bad.
Speaker 1: I had Freeman as a high n RB two. I
Speaker 1: think that he was, you know, on a team that
Speaker 1: doesn't have a lot of winners, Greg the Atlanta Falcons
Speaker 1: probably the biggest winner yesterday on a team that doesn't
Speaker 1: have a lot of winners. DeVonta Freeman was probably the
Speaker 1: biggest winner for the Atlanta Falcons. Absolutely yesterday. He performed
Speaker 1: better than I thought yards and two touchdowns. Still not
Speaker 1: as good as Ryan Tess. You mentioned Richard shore Me,
Speaker 1: you mentioned the San Francisco four nineers, It was arguably
Speaker 1: the game of the day. The fourty Niners defeated in
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints on a last minute Robbie goldfield goal.
Speaker 1: Crazy game. It was a crazy, crazy game where Jimmy
Speaker 1: g led the way for San Francisco Drew Brees, that
Speaker 1: two of them went head to head, toe to toe,
Speaker 1: and it was an awesome, awesome contest down there in
Speaker 1: the Superdome. You know how we like to hold ourselves
Speaker 1: accountable here on the BFF, Greg, we give out apologies often.
Speaker 1: I think now is the time to apologize to the
Speaker 1: of the quarterbacks in this game, because we both said
Speaker 1: we weren't really in on Drew Brees heading into last week.
Speaker 1: Nobody could have seen this coming. Yes, you could have said,
Speaker 1: you know, games in the Superdome tend to trend towards
Speaker 1: the over. That's fine, but nobody saw forty eight to
Speaker 1: forty six, Kyle Shanahan playing out all the stops, having
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders throw touchdowns, a really, really fun game all around.
Speaker 1: But I think that this was a big game for
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo in terms of his development and his confidence. Greg,
Speaker 1: because we have seen some big games at a Jimmy
Speaker 1: G over the past month or so. But against the
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. You know the Saints, their defense is solid.
Speaker 1: I would say it's probably above average. It's not an
Speaker 1: elite defense by any means. They do get a lot
Speaker 1: of pressure, so that's why I worried about Jimmy G
Speaker 1: in this spot. But man, that offensive line held up.
Speaker 1: He was really good. I mean, Arrappo really got it
Speaker 1: done yesterday. So if you managed to use one of
Speaker 1: him or Drew Brees a super flex league or somehow
Speaker 1: in a one quarterback league, huge winners from yesterday
