Speaker 1: the show, you know exactly how to do it. It's
Speaker 1: at eight four four, eight four, three six eight seven nine.
Speaker 1: I got my man, the Manimal Chris Bovona that we
Speaker 1: sweat team. Let me tell you something. Week five is
Speaker 1: almost in the books. We're gonna see the debut of
Speaker 1: Mitchell Trobinski and the Minnesota Vikings and the Bears in
Speaker 1: a little bit on about an hour and a half.
Speaker 1: That game will kick off from Chicago. But uh, we
Speaker 1: five was interesting. We have a few big injuries to
Speaker 1: discuss and implications we had. We have a team that
Speaker 1: was windless get on the board in the Los Angeles Chargers.
Speaker 1: We also there's some big time trends and takeaways to
Speaker 1: talk about. Okay, I know everybody on Overreaction Monday is
Speaker 1: getting a little bit overboard on certain people on certain teams,
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna pump the brakes on some of this speculation.
Speaker 1: That is, while we're gonna talk about Monday Night football,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about the trends that I've seen that
Speaker 1: are real in Week five. And we also got pulled
Speaker 1: questions up for you as usual. Okay, I want to
Speaker 1: know who was your diamond in the rough four Week five?
Speaker 1: Was it a guy like Ed Dixon who came out
Speaker 1: of nowhere to get over a hundred yards in that offense?
Speaker 1: And in Carolina was it Nelson Aghilor who again had
Speaker 1: another big play touchdown for the Eagles, Brian Hoyer, who
Speaker 1: did big things for the forty Niners at quarterback. And
Speaker 1: then we also want to know who was your gazey
Speaker 1: four Week five. I'm talking about like Todd Gurley didn't
Speaker 1: do anything against that Seattle defense. Was a guy like
Speaker 1: Big Ben? Five interceptions against the Jaguars for Big Ben Roethlisberger.
Speaker 1: Then in his postgame comments he said maybe he didn't
Speaker 1: have it anymore. We'll dissect that a little bit as well,
Speaker 1: or is it a Marie Cooper? This is something I
Speaker 1: have been telling you guys, and you could listen. Maybe
Speaker 1: now you want to believe me. It's all right. We
Speaker 1: got that at Spinning Speeds on Twitter. If you want
Speaker 1: to get at me and enjoy and join the conversation,
Speaker 1: you could do that. Remember later on in the show
Speaker 1: we opened up the phone lines as well at eight
Speaker 1: four four, eight four, three, six, eight seven nine. When
Speaker 1: we come back, I'm gonna give you all the injuries
Speaker 1: and the implications, and also we're gonna talk about what
Speaker 1: Speed's got right in week five, and there were some things,
Speaker 1: and also what Speed's got wrong in week five. We
Speaker 1: gotta hold myself the spitting statistician accountable before we open
Speaker 1: up the phone lines and y'all do it for me
Speaker 1: because I know you guys would at eight four four
Speaker 1: eight four three six eight seven nine. We're also gonna
Speaker 1: talk a little bit at the end of the show
Speaker 1: as we put the fun and functional sports radio. No
Speaker 1: one has put the fun in the NBA and like
Speaker 1: the Twitter of the NBA, like Joel l n Beat

Speaker 1: that as well. Mr boy Dane Martinez speeds the spitting
Speaker 1: statistician right here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the award
Speaker 1: winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. We're gonna come back talk
Speaker 1: about the infirm reward that is the New York Giants
Speaker 1: wide Receiver room. When we come back. Hey, I'm Melissa

Speaker 1: Radio Network. What's going on? Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: Right here in the Fantasy Sports Radio Network is your
Speaker 1: boy Day Martinez speeds the Spindit statistician. I want to
Speaker 1: tell you about my big time takeaways from Week five
Speaker 1: of the NFL season. Emboy, did it really go down?
Speaker 1: First of all, remember if we go all the way
Speaker 1: back to Thursday Night football where Tampa Bay Bucks kicker
Speaker 1: Nicky Folk miss not one, not to but three field
Speaker 1: goals or else the Patriots could have gone under five hundred.
Speaker 1: Potentially the Bucks are gonna work out but worked out
Speaker 1: a bunch of kickers today. Okay, Josh Lambo Young who
Speaker 1: cool from formerly of the Chargers. And also what about
Speaker 1: Roberto Oguayo. Maybe he could get a second chance in
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, So keep an eye out on that. I
Speaker 1: do not believe that uh Nikki Folk is long for
Speaker 1: the job after his kicking performances in the last two weeks. Also, okay,
Speaker 1: obviously the big the big news on the injury front
Speaker 1: four week five, And I don't know if you know
Speaker 1: you know here on the Fantasy Freestyle. A lot of
Speaker 1: people on the YouTube stream like to talk about our
Speaker 1: boy Ted Finn Jr. As our good old fish right
Speaker 1: here in Studio thirty four has made it two week six,
Speaker 1: but he has a new friend to play with. Okay,
Speaker 1: I decided to put our guy, Odell Beckham into the
Speaker 1: fish tank today because Odell Beckham is now sleeping with
Speaker 1: the fishes or swimming with the fishies. Uh as his
Speaker 1: season is over broken ankle for Old Dell Beckham, but
Speaker 1: he is not alone when it comes to the Giants
Speaker 1: and wide receivers. Brandon Marshall with an anchored injury. He
Speaker 1: was carted off. It looks like he's gonna miss multiple weeks.
Speaker 1: Sterling Shepherd also dealing with an ankle. There is literally
Speaker 1: hardly any receivers healthy for the New York Football Giants
Speaker 1: as they went to oh and five on the season
Speaker 1: against the Chargers. That's gonna be a really interesting situation
Speaker 1: moving forward. On tomorrow show and we Talk Waiver Wiremman
Speaker 1: Lewis might be one of the biggest wide receiver ads
Speaker 1: this week for sure. Also Charles Clay and it's a
Speaker 1: shame to lose Charles Clay. He's had knee surgery today.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be out. They say at least a month.
Speaker 1: He had an opportunity to be really be one of
Speaker 1: these tight end ones. He was look looking good over
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. I had him on my
Speaker 1: fantasy team. I was giving him out as an option.
Speaker 1: Looks like he's gonna miss. Sometimes you're gonna have to
Speaker 1: look elsewhere for your tight end love. Also, Travis Kelsey
Speaker 1: in Kansas City. A very scary story here. He's in
Speaker 1: the concussion protocol. Okay, they he had the impact, whatever happened,
Speaker 1: then he went back out into the game and then
Speaker 1: decided at halftime. He said he didn't really know where
Speaker 1: he was. A scary situation with Travis Kelsey in the
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs. But he is in the concussion protocol.
Speaker 1: And listen. The only thing that may have been ravaged
Speaker 1: like the New York Giants wide receiver room was the
Speaker 1: Houston Texans defense. He saw it on Sunday night. J J.
Speaker 1: Watt broken broken leg. They say it's a really bad
Speaker 1: one there by the knee joint. I don't know if
Speaker 1: he's gonna be the same. I heard Nate Burlison on
Speaker 1: the NFL Network talking about here he had this exact
Speaker 1: same injury and that he was really never the same
Speaker 1: even when he recovered from it. And also Whitney Merciless
Speaker 1: he's gonna be out for the year. He tore his
Speaker 1: pectoral muscle early in the game on Sunday night, so
Speaker 1: that Houston defense may not be the same moving forward.
Speaker 1: We got Davante Parker, he also had an ankle injury.
Speaker 1: He looks like he might be okay. He's listed as
Speaker 1: day to day. Terrence West with a calf, he's gonna
Speaker 1: be day to day. My Man Boom Boom, Billow Pow Powell,
Speaker 1: he's day to day with the calf. I don't know
Speaker 1: if he's gonna go for the Jets. It could be
Speaker 1: a lot of work for Elijah McGuire moving forward in
Speaker 1: the short term with Matt Forte still battling the turf
Speaker 1: toe and now Blow Power with a calf injury as well.
Speaker 1: And also as it relates to the quarterbacks, a couple
Speaker 1: of quarterbacks got banged up. They didn't leave the game.
Speaker 1: It looks like they'll be okay. But Andy Dalton in
Speaker 1: uh Cincinnati, he was hobbled with an ankle, but he
Speaker 1: played through it. Remember Cincinnati has a bye next week,
Speaker 1: so he should be fine and should be fine by
Speaker 1: the time week seven comes along. But keeping one on
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton's ankle, and also Matt Stafford. Matt Stafford had
Speaker 1: like a five issue, it looked like, and he was
Speaker 1: gimpy as well, the proverbial little hitch in his giddy
Speaker 1: up as he was moving along. And they say they
Speaker 1: are hopeful he'll be okay four Week six, Lions take
Speaker 1: on the New Orleans Saints next week and then the
Speaker 1: Lions have a by themselves in week seven. Also, when
Speaker 1: it comes to the quarterbacks, um Bill's head coach Sean
Speaker 1: mc dermott gave Tyrod Taylor the quote unquote vote of confidence.
Speaker 1: I think that's very interesting. Is not the first time
Speaker 1: that he's gotten the vote of confidence. Remember now in Buffalo,
Speaker 1: when you got Jordan Matthews, you've got Charles Clay, You've
Speaker 1: got Shady McCoy, and not a lot else. Maybe the
Speaker 1: Bills get right in there by week, but uh listen,
Speaker 1: Nate Peterman could h could be warming up on the
Speaker 1: sidelines coming up pretty soon. And also in Cleveland, Hugh
Speaker 1: Jackson is noncommittal on who will be his quarterback for
Speaker 1: the Browns moving forward. They pulled Deshaun Kaiser. Uh. Kevin
Speaker 1: Hogan got into that game in the second half of
Speaker 1: the Jets and looked a little bit better. Uh. Deshaun
Speaker 1: Kaiser right now thirty second in the NFL in terms
Speaker 1: of qb R, that quarterback ratings stats. So it's not
Speaker 1: pretty for the rookie there in Cleveland. Hugh Jackson may
Speaker 1: pull the plug on that experiment. All right, it's time
Speaker 1: now here on the Fantasy Freestyle talk about week five.
Speaker 1: Let me first talk about what speeds got right and
Speaker 1: what speeds got wrong. Let me tell you first my
Speaker 1: call shots. Listen, Philadelphia Eagles, Man, they moved to four
Speaker 1: and one. They blow out the car Knowles. I told
Speaker 1: you about that, that West Coast team traveling east four
Speaker 1: the one o'clock start. It was it was a problem
Speaker 1: for everybody that wasn't facing the New York Football Giants
Speaker 1: at least. But listen, Carson Wentz continues to develop. He
Speaker 1: looks very good. He is in the top five of
Speaker 1: q b R in the National Football League right now.
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you the other thing about them is
Speaker 1: that I told you they had the offensive line protecting Wentz.
Speaker 1: They are now one of these um aggregate offenses that
Speaker 1: I talked about all the time. We were just talking
Speaker 1: about on line up lock with Tony Sencada. How listen,
Speaker 1: Alston Jeffrey is technically their number one receiver, but he's
Speaker 1: not targeted like a number one receiver like DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 1: or Julio Jones or uh you know, Odell Beckham or
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown, these kinds of guys. This is becoming one
Speaker 1: of those offenses where Carson Wentz is gonna go wherever
Speaker 1: the ball dictates, whatever matchup he has, and part of
Speaker 1: his maturation process is to know that. Remember he's got
Speaker 1: the big security blanket in zach Ertz across the middle.
Speaker 1: I think the Eagles are for real, and everybody else
Speaker 1: in that vision, I believe is going to regress. You know,
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, they did not get the win. The Eagles
Speaker 1: are looking at an interesting lead in their division. Remember
Speaker 1: the only loss the Eagles have is on the road
Speaker 1: at Kansas City, and what was a competitive game. I
Speaker 1: think these Philadelphia Eagles are for real, and I told
Speaker 1: you so if you listen to my season previews before
Speaker 1: the season and started. I also told you guys that
Speaker 1: Michael Crabtree is better than a Mark Cooper and will
Speaker 1: outproduce Amari Cooper. I have been telling people for weeks
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Freestyle that Cooper continues to struggle
Speaker 1: with the drop issue that he has, and that I'm
Speaker 1: telling you right now at this point, I need to
Speaker 1: see it with a MARII Cooper before I put him
Speaker 1: in my line up again. He's decidedly on my bench,
Speaker 1: and you may even wanna toy with the idea of
Speaker 1: dropping him in redraft leagues if you're in a ten
Speaker 1: team leagues. The same as like Sammy Watkins, man, these
Speaker 1: guys are not the number one wide receivers we thought
Speaker 1: they were. Michael Crabtree greater than sign Amari Cooper. The
Speaker 1: other thing I want to tell you about what I
Speaker 1: called my shot on we five was these PPR backs
Speaker 1: man guys like Andre Ellington. I told you Andre Ellington
Speaker 1: would be interesting, especially in the passing game. He had
Speaker 1: another nine catches for the Cardinals. You know a lot
Speaker 1: of him in garbage time as they were getting blown
Speaker 1: up by the Eagles. And I also told you about
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson in the same vein as a PPR guy.
Speaker 1: He scored a touchdown UM in their game against the
Speaker 1: Jets via the past, and I think that that was right. Listen.
Speaker 1: But for everything I got right, there's also things that
Speaker 1: I got wrong. And let me you know, these are
Speaker 1: the people that put it in my eye, and I
Speaker 1: know as soon as I opened up the phone lines,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hear this, So let me admit it now.
Speaker 1: Cam Newton had a day. Cam Newton had a day
Speaker 1: against the Detroit Lions. You know, with all the controversies
Speaker 1: surrounding him, I still don't like really what he did.
Speaker 1: I think it was a little bit overborne, overblown with
Speaker 1: his outfit and his Rosie the Riveter pin. I think
Speaker 1: that was a little overboard whatever. But he balled out
Speaker 1: on the football field. And that's now two games in
Speaker 1: a row. So maybe, listen, I got it wrong on Cam. Okay,
Speaker 1: and he's back out there. I don't know if he's
Speaker 1: a QB one, but you're not cutting him anymore. You're
Speaker 1: not picking up guys like Trevor Simeon over him anymore.
Speaker 1: What I will say, though, is I've always been talking
Speaker 1: about this Carolina offense as an evolution this year, right,
Speaker 1: and I said that Cam is gonna need time to
Speaker 1: understand this offense. He's gonna need time to get better
Speaker 1: and healthier off of his injuries, the shoulder, the ankle,
Speaker 1: things like that. So maybe this is an offense that
Speaker 1: is going to get better with time, and maybe we're
Speaker 1: seeing that right now. But I was down on Cam
Speaker 1: and he kind of put it in my eye. I
Speaker 1: also thought that the Chiefs were gonna be a much
Speaker 1: tougher matchup for Deshaun Watson. I thought they were going
Speaker 1: to confuse him and scheme wise stuff like that. But nope.
Speaker 1: DeShawn Watson with another five touchdowns last night. He leads
Speaker 1: the NFL and qb R at eight five. And check
Speaker 1: out the other guys in the top five Dac at
Speaker 1: eighty five q BR I'm excuse me, Watson with an
Speaker 1: eight five q BRDAC is second at seventy seven, Carson
Speaker 1: Wentz at sixty nine, and QBR Alex Smith, who people
Speaker 1: are talking about as an m v P candidate, it's
Speaker 1: a six eight qb R, and then Tom Brady TB
Speaker 1: twelve at sixty five. Deshaun Watson is doing it with
Speaker 1: his legs, He's doing it with his arm five touchdowns
Speaker 1: last night, and the last thing that you know pretty
Speaker 1: much was put in my eye. I was telling people
Speaker 1: all week to stay away from Aaron Jones in Green Bay.
Speaker 1: I told you to stay away from him. I told
Speaker 1: you Time Montgomery might come back. I told you that
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams was ahead of him on the death chart
Speaker 1: for a reason. Well, it looks like Aaron Jones is
Speaker 1: going to be a thing. I think he leaped frog
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams. He is now a viable person to make
Speaker 1: sure you go out and get if he's still somehow available.
Speaker 1: I missed the boat on Aaron Jones. But then again,
Speaker 1: here's the thing. Time on Hontgomery is going to come
Speaker 1: back soon. And I think that Time Montgomery obviously eats
Speaker 1: into the opportunity what you saw with Aaron Jones. But
Speaker 1: I do believe now Aaron Jones is the handcuff, not
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams when it comes to the Green Bay Packers.
Speaker 1: We're gonna open up the phone lines here at four
Speaker 1: four eight, four eight seven nine. We're gonna talk a
Speaker 1: little bit more about these takeaways from Week five. New
Speaker 1: York is upside down. New York football is upside down.
Speaker 1: The Jets at three and two in the Giants row
Speaker 1: and five, and we gotta dive a little bit deeper
Speaker 1: into that Jaguar Steelers game because a lot of people
Speaker 1: are thinking that Big Ben is done, that the Steelers
Speaker 1: are hopping off that bandwagon, and that these Jacksonville Jaguars
Speaker 1: may be serious in first place of the af C South.
Speaker 1: I'll have my opinion on that when we come back.
Speaker 1: We're dropping status over beats is the fantasy freestyle right
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network Hunter, Henry Sterling, Shepherd,
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas. These three NFL softwares are not due to slump,
Speaker 1: They're due to break out, just like the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network. Even year two, things are only getting better.
Speaker 1: Make sure listen live and dell o the f A
Speaker 1: T S Y Radio. It's free and it's twenty four seven.
Speaker 1: The best Fantasy sports unten. He's on the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network. You got a little Swiss beats right here
Speaker 1: on the way back. This is dropping stats over beats
Speaker 1: is the fantasy freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network. Big shout out to I Heart Radio, Tune
Speaker 1: in Radio, and of course there's anybody watching on the
Speaker 1: YouTube live stream right here on the Fantasy Sports Network.
Speaker 1: We're doing what we can help you win your leagues
Speaker 1: and win that cast. I was talking a little bit
Speaker 1: about what I got right, what I got wrong. In
Speaker 1: Week five. I told you about these Eagles, man, I
Speaker 1: told you about the PPR Backs, and I told you
Speaker 1: that a Marii Cooper is just it's not all that
Speaker 1: he was cracked up to be. What the idea of
Speaker 1: the drops that he had only one catch? I believe
Speaker 1: yesterday Michael Crabtree is the best wide receiver for the
Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders. And I told you also that I gotta
Speaker 1: admit when I got some things wrong. Cam Newton put
Speaker 1: it in my eye with another big time performance. Three touchdowns,
Speaker 1: no interceptions, three in fifty five yards through the air.
Speaker 1: Also Deshaun Watson putting it in my eye as well.
Speaker 1: For the Houston Texans, Aaron Jones had a nice little game.
Speaker 1: He's ahead of Jamal Williams. It looks like, let me
Speaker 1: also say this New York City man, the Giants are
Speaker 1: in five, and uh, it looked like McAdoo is on
Speaker 1: some serious pressure here on the hot seat. Jerry Reese
Speaker 1: as well, you know, first with the offensive line struggles.
Speaker 1: But remember they decided made a conscious effort to get
Speaker 1: Eli Manning some toys in the off season instead of
Speaker 1: protecting him as the window potentially closes on Eli Manning
Speaker 1: as he gets older. And now what are they gonna do?
Speaker 1: Noel Dell Marshall looks like he's gonna miss multiple weeks
Speaker 1: Starling Shepherd day to day with an ankle alls, which
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Louis, And that's about what it maybe
Speaker 1: what I think matters here because watch Evan Ingram. I
Speaker 1: think Evan Ingram now gets even more targets and could
Speaker 1: be really in that low end, tight end, one streaming
Speaker 1: kind of conversation. On the other side of town, the
Speaker 1: Jets of three and two and and their fans are
Speaker 1: upset about it because they wanted a tank. But let
Speaker 1: me tell you something about the Jets. This coming from
Speaker 1: a Jets fan. If I zoom out and I look
Speaker 1: at their schedule, I still don't see a lot of
Speaker 1: winds left. Okay, they just had the easiest part of
Speaker 1: their schedule Jacksonville Cleveland, And I told you about how
Speaker 1: the schedule is made. They just played the other last
Speaker 1: place teams in the a f C. They still have
Speaker 1: to play the entire NFC South, which is a good division, Saints, Panthers, Falcons,
Speaker 1: they still have to play the entire a f C West, Denver,
Speaker 1: Kansas City. They already lost to Oakland, you know they
Speaker 1: and so maybe the Chargers when they play on Bristismas Eve,
Speaker 1: like week sixteen of the season. But I don't know
Speaker 1: where the Jets are still gonna get these wins. If
Speaker 1: I told you at the beginning of the year, I
Speaker 1: thought they could get Cleveland or Jacksonville, and I thought
Speaker 1: that they would win a home game against either Miami
Speaker 1: or Buffalo. They've done that. Now I don't know where
Speaker 1: they're getting another win. So let let's not go crazy
Speaker 1: on this New York Jets. There's still They're still blunt,
Speaker 1: guts trash, and I want to talk a little bit
Speaker 1: about these Jacks and the Steelers. I mean, Clayton Trey
Speaker 1: Hand got at me on Twitter. Are the Jaguars now
Speaker 1: a weekend, week out option on defense regardless of the
Speaker 1: match up? The answer is yes. The answer is yes.
Speaker 1: I mean Saxonville in full effect. They picked off Ben
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger five times yesterday and one of his worst games
Speaker 1: of his career, and I think they're They've proven that
Speaker 1: this is the model, this is what they want to do.
Speaker 1: Guys like Kelis Campbell and Fowler upfront, you got a
Speaker 1: j Bouye and Jalen Ramsey on the outside, a cornerback.
Speaker 1: This is real. And then what they want to do
Speaker 1: is have a time of possession game and grind out
Speaker 1: Leonard four Net. But what I will say about big
Speaker 1: Ben if you listen to the fantasy freestyle, I've said
Speaker 1: even before the season, I said the toughest thing that
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to deal with, or what I've called
Speaker 1: the Sun's setting quarterbacks. These are the quarterbacks like the
Speaker 1: Eli Mannings, the Philip Rivers, the Carson Palmer's right, which
Speaker 1: do they fall off a cliff in terms of their
Speaker 1: play or not? Big Ben is never someone who I
Speaker 1: put it in that category, but he did come out
Speaker 1: in the same draft as Eli and Rivers. Maybe he
Speaker 1: is in that category as well. I still think the
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers are gonna be just fine. I still think
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers are gonna win the a f C North. Okay,
Speaker 1: but it does look weird. And I will say this
Speaker 1: that after you've mentioned retirement in the off season. The
Speaker 1: narrative is gonna very quickly go to is he done?
Speaker 1: You know? And I don't think he's done because he
Speaker 1: still has Antonio Brown, still has Levan Bell around him.
Speaker 1: So I think the Steelers will be okay. The thing is,
Speaker 1: they just ran into a very good defense in Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: And kudos to Jacksonville, so many reasons why they could
Speaker 1: have laid an egg. Remember the travel London game, the
Speaker 1: third game in a row away from home, but they
Speaker 1: really put it. In my eye. I think the Jacksonville
Speaker 1: Jaguars that defense is real and as clay Hen Trayton
Speaker 1: says on Twitter, they are a Week two unique option.
Speaker 1: Regardless of the matchup. They scored two touchdowns. There's still
Speaker 1: bad offense in the NFL. I mean this Miami Tennessee
Speaker 1: game had two offensive touchdowns combined. The Jaguars had two
Speaker 1: touchdowns defensively. The Seattle UH Los Angeles Rams game had
Speaker 1: two touchdowns offensively combined. The Jacksonville Jaguars had two touchdowns
Speaker 1: by themselves. So keep an eye on this. They're still
Speaker 1: add offense. Maybe some quarterback changes coming. I'm telling you
Speaker 1: Jay Cutler doesn't care. They need to go to Matt Moore.
Speaker 1: I think he's thirty first in the league in qb
Speaker 1: R at one point nine. He's behind Mike Glennan. They
Speaker 1: already made a change at quarterback the Browns. I think
Speaker 1: you're gonna go to Hogan. Kaiser is at eighteen point
Speaker 1: five q b are They need to pull the plug
Speaker 1: on that experiment. Maybe people develop over time, but they
Speaker 1: need to maybe PEPs pause a little bit for DeShawn
Speaker 1: Kaiser as well. And also thinking about these Bills, man
Speaker 1: one a total offense one t D. I can't there
Speaker 1: are many votes of confidence you have. They have no
Speaker 1: playmakers on the outside. We'll see what happens with the
Speaker 1: Bills after the bye. All right, we got the foam
Speaker 1: mines are open here at eight four four eight four
Speaker 1: three six eight seven nine. So I wanna go first.
Speaker 1: I wanna go first to Brandon in Calli, Brandon and Callie,
Speaker 1: you're leading the soft here on the fantasy freestyle dropping
Speaker 1: statue with beats. Sounds like you got a question about Zeke.
Speaker 1: Holla at your boy, what's up? Hey? I was I
Speaker 1: just gotta Davante Adams for Dak Prescott, and I was
Speaker 1: wondering if I should get rid of it a Zeke too.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of worried about all the legal stuff. UM,
Speaker 1: thanks for call Brandon, if you're here on a fantasy freestyle. Uh,
Speaker 1: most people here on this network and I agree, do
Speaker 1: not think that Zeke is gonna miss any games this year.
Speaker 1: I know they're expecting some kind of court ruling. I
Speaker 1: don't think this is what's gonna happen. I don't think
Speaker 1: he's gonna be sidelined. I think it's gonna happen if anything,
Speaker 1: the same way as Tom Brady was a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago. If anything with Zeke, he is going to
Speaker 1: uh serve suspension to start next year if it comes
Speaker 1: from that far. I don't think you're gonna miss Zeke
Speaker 1: at any point in the fantasy season for this year
Speaker 1: two thousand and seventeen. So I wouldn't feel bad about unloading, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, worrying too much about the Cowboys that you have.
Speaker 1: I think Zeke is gonna be just fine in terms
Speaker 1: of his ability to be on the field. His reputation, however,
Speaker 1: will get damage. But I do think he'll be on
Speaker 1: the field for all of two thousands seventeen, barring injury.
Speaker 1: Of course we got another Uh, we got another caller.
Speaker 1: It is Jeremy here in New York hopefully maybe he's
Speaker 1: close to Studio thirty four. I don't know if you're
Speaker 1: in New York City right here by Rock and Riley's
Speaker 1: in Midtown. Man. But Jeremy, you've got a trade question.
Speaker 1: How can the spin statistician help you? It sounds like
Speaker 1: you got a trade that you may even give or
Speaker 1: get Kareem Hunt. Huh, let's talk about it, hey, man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I love the show, and uh I'm in Manhattan. I'm
Speaker 1: not near studio that studio now, But all right, fair enough,
Speaker 1: sometime in thirty five you come on, buy, buy a drink,
Speaker 1: watch a game. But uh, I appreciate the kind words
Speaker 1: for the show. But how can I help you? Jeremy?
Speaker 1: What's up with the trade? I got a trade offer here,
Speaker 1: and uh I have something to do with the Jags.
Speaker 1: D is funny you mentioned it? Um have Kareem Hunt
Speaker 1: offered to me? Along with Kareem Hunts, Davante Adams, Cooper Cup.
Speaker 1: Now he wons Jordan Howard, Doug Baldwin, Tyree Hill and
Speaker 1: the Jackson. All right, say this again. Way it's Kareem
Speaker 1: Huntdavante Adams, Cooper Cup, that's the one you'd be getting.
Speaker 1: Who would you be giving up here? Same slow Jordan Howard,
Speaker 1: Howard Baldwin, Cree Hill, and the jag um Am I
Speaker 1: giving up too much? No, I mean you're getting Kareem Hunt. Man.
Speaker 1: You're getting Kareem Hunt, which is a big time upgrade
Speaker 1: over Howard. I think Davante Adams, you know, in that
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers offense can eat just like Doug Baldwin,
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup. I mean, you're losing a little bit on
Speaker 1: the wide receiver side. But you've also seen Tyreek Hill.
Speaker 1: You know that punt return saved you yesterday, Jeremy. You know,
Speaker 1: so maybe trek Hill. You know, it's more of a
Speaker 1: boomer bus kind of guy. I like this trade because
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt is gonna be every week for you. I know.
Speaker 1: The Jags defense, I said, is a stud defense. But listen,
Speaker 1: that's not really something that I would prevent me from
Speaker 1: making this trade. I like getting Kareem Hunt, Jeremy, I
Speaker 1: would do that trade real quick. Okay, uh and thanks
Speaker 1: for the call up. Next year on the Fantasy Freestyle,
Speaker 1: is Caden and Caden is in California out there, I
Speaker 1: got a question before waiver wires run for week six. Um,
Speaker 1: you're on the Fantasy Freestyle. What's up? All right? So
Speaker 1: I got a two part question. Alright, So I love
Speaker 1: Odell and play this week? Yeah, So for replacing Odell,
Speaker 1: I'm looking at uh towards Smith, Cole Beasley or Nelson
Speaker 1: Adure or um random tate for Charles Clarke. What some
Speaker 1: pickups for Odell and Charles play? Sure? Um, and we're
Speaker 1: gonna talk mostly. I gotta tell you, guys, we're gonna
Speaker 1: do mostly of our waiver wire tomorrow. I'll be giving
Speaker 1: you my top hot ads at every position. Uh for
Speaker 1: the waiver wire. On wide receivers, you know, Devin Funch
Speaker 1: has his own and of leagues and looks like he's
Speaker 1: gonna be a thing for Carolina. Roger Lewis, if you
Speaker 1: want to replace Odell with another giant, listen to Giants
Speaker 1: still can't really run the ball that well behind that
Speaker 1: offensive line. Someone's gonna have to catch the ball. Roger
Speaker 1: Lewis looks like he might be the guy you know
Speaker 1: that is healthy and left standing there and when it
Speaker 1: comes to the tight end, listen Austin Seferian Jenkins might
Speaker 1: be alive, might be available in your league. He's only
Speaker 1: owned of teams. Think about Austin Seferian Jenkins. He's getting
Speaker 1: consistent targets in the New York Jets, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: keep an eye on as well. Watch what Zach Miller
Speaker 1: does tonight out there in Chicago. Okay, with the switch
Speaker 1: to Mitch Drabinsky. If he looks like the security blanket
Speaker 1: from Miss Drabinsky, he's only owned in about fifteen percent
Speaker 1: of leagues. He could be someone that is an option
Speaker 1: to replace Charles Clay for you, who it does look
Speaker 1: like will be out for over a month with that
Speaker 1: knee surgery. I see you guys out there on the calls.
Speaker 1: I still see you, Joshua, Cliff, Scott and Holland. We're
Speaker 1: gonna get to you when we come back on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle dropping stats over beats. But you know, we
Speaker 1: gotta do. We gotta pay the bills. And one of
Speaker 1: the things that we're also doing here at UH Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Network is we're partnering with d k MS. If
Speaker 1: you listen to the show, you already know guys that
Speaker 1: we've been doing this partner with d k MS to
Speaker 1: help fight against blood cancer. We're running daily fantasy tournaments
Speaker 1: for free every week of the NFL season. Weas one
Speaker 1: through sixteen. If you win that, you get a chance
Speaker 1: to go to the finals in week seventeen. Okay, you're
Speaker 1: only gonna be against sixteen people. We're fifteen people. If
Speaker 1: you win that, you get two tickets to Super Bowl
Speaker 1: fifty two in Minnesota. But here's the thing. Honestly, even
Speaker 1: if you don't win, you still win because you can
Speaker 1: help save a life. You could register and learn a
Speaker 1: little bit more about how you could help fight this disease.
Speaker 1: I mean, cancer touches everybody in some way, shape or form.
Speaker 1: I personally am doing a walk to raise money for
Speaker 1: cancer research this weekend coming up, so do your part
Speaker 1: as well. It's free to It's free to enter the
Speaker 1: DFS contest. Even if you lose the contest, you still
Speaker 1: win by help possibly saving a life. You could be
Speaker 1: a blood donor, you could be a bone marrow donor.
Speaker 1: It's easy to register. It's so simple to do it.
Speaker 1: I know Chris Pavona has done it. He swapped the
Speaker 1: inside of his mouth and he might be a match.
Speaker 1: We shall see all right. When we come back, we're
Speaker 1: gonna take these callers and we're gonna talk a little
Speaker 1: bit more about Monday Night football, and we're also gonna
Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about how you can help
Speaker 1: another cause very close to my heart. We'll come back
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Have everyone
Speaker 1: want to have a fantasy expert in the palm of
Speaker 1: your hand, in the pocket of your capis. We'll check
Speaker 1: it out now you can. It's the Fantasy Sports Radio
Speaker 1: Network app. Download it down to your phone. We promised,

Speaker 1: hours a day, seven days a week of pure fantasy
Speaker 1: knowledge dropping all over your head. It's a Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network app. Stop being a weirdo and streaming it online.
Speaker 1: Get it on your phone, take it with you every
Speaker 1: where you go. Well man, Chris Bavona switching it up
Speaker 1: a little bit here, we're dropping stats over at New Beats.
Speaker 1: Right a little daddy Yankee. As we're coming back on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle and the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, boyd
Speaker 1: Dane Martinez feeds the spitting statistician holding you down. Where
Speaker 1: we're reacting to everything that happened in Week five, from
Speaker 1: the Jaguars defense to the injuries in New York, to
Speaker 1: the decline potentially of Big Ben Roethlisberger, to the ascension
Speaker 1: as your boys, Speeds has been statistician told you about
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz and the Philadelphia Eagles. The phone lines are
Speaker 1: open at eight four four eight four eight seven nine.
Speaker 1: We've got a couple of people that I want to
Speaker 1: talk to Speeds. I know one that's coming up that
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to eat crow because of what I
Speaker 1: told him to do with Cam Newton. But we'll get
Speaker 1: there in a second. First, we got Joshua. Joshua is
Speaker 1: in Dallas. You're dropping stats over Beach on the Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: Sounds like you got a question about Todd Gurley. What's
Speaker 1: going on? So Todd Gurley didn't do that? Dude yesterday
Speaker 1: he almost lost. I'm lost because I was doing Gurley.
Speaker 1: You think one week Bush. Thanks for call out there
Speaker 1: josh and Dallas, and yes, um, I do think Todd
Speaker 1: Gurley is still a locked and loaded RB one on
Speaker 1: a week to week basis. He just had a bad game.
Speaker 1: It looks like the Seattle Seahawks were focusing on him.
Speaker 1: He was even one of in the poll here one
Speaker 1: of our options for our gazey of week five, and
Speaker 1: right now, thirty three percent of the poll think Todd
Speaker 1: Gurley was the fool Gayzy four week five. We got
Speaker 1: a couple of people talking about Gurley, Ben Watson the
Speaker 1: Lions defense as well, but a lot of people think
Speaker 1: that Todd Gurley was the fool Gayzy four week five.
Speaker 1: But don't worry about it, Josh out there in Dallas.
Speaker 1: I do think Todd Gurley will be just fine and
Speaker 1: is an RB one moving forward. Please do not make
Speaker 1: any rash decisions about Todd Gurley. Next up, we go
Speaker 1: to Cliff in Boston, and I believe I told Cliff, Oh,
Speaker 1: Cliff dropped, Okay, I was, I was, I was. I
Speaker 1: was getting ready to eat some crow because I believe
Speaker 1: I told Cliff bad things about Cam Newton. So he
Speaker 1: doesn't want to talk to me anymore. We're keeping moving though.
Speaker 1: We go to Scott scott Is in Dallas. Hey, Scott,
Speaker 1: you're dropping stats over beats with speeds the spitting statistician.
Speaker 1: How can we help you out? Doing all right? Man?
Speaker 1: Doing all right? So get a little problem at running
Speaker 1: back here I'm sitting on the market Armory, Joe Mixon,
Speaker 1: and uh, outside of that, I Wendel Smallwood. Someone approached
Speaker 1: me sort approached me saying they would do a trade
Speaker 1: for either Kareem Hunt or Dak Prescott for Michael Thomas
Speaker 1: and DeMarco Murray. Um, I just wanted to get your
Speaker 1: your thoughts on that, which one which we're moving forward
Speaker 1: with the suspension possibility and stuff like that. No, I
Speaker 1: love Kareem Hunt. I mean if you could do this
Speaker 1: with what you said Dac and de Marco Murray on
Speaker 1: Michael Thomps, say it again, Michael, Michael Thomas and de
Speaker 1: Marca Murray, so you would be given Michael Thomas and
Speaker 1: de Marco Murray for Kareem Hunt. All right, So here's
Speaker 1: the the critical question with us and guys everybody, uh
Speaker 1: on Fantasy Freestyle when you hit me up on Twitter
Speaker 1: at spittin speeds, the it's really important for me to know, say,
Speaker 1: like the format of your league and also in a
Speaker 1: question like this when you're gonna be trading away Michael Thomas.
Speaker 1: What I need to know, Scott is I need to
Speaker 1: know the rest of your wide receivers because here's the
Speaker 1: thing if losing Michael Thomas would be a horrible blow
Speaker 1: to your wide receiver room, then it's a problem, right.
Speaker 1: But if you have two or three other guys that
Speaker 1: you feel good about, then Michael Thomas becomes expendable, and
Speaker 1: then hell yeah, I do that trade for Kareem Hunt.
Speaker 1: So he's the real question for you, Scott. Who's the
Speaker 1: rest of your wide receivers? Yeah, so they're the very
Speaker 1: last part of my problem. So I have Jarvis Landry, uh,
Speaker 1: Stirling Shepherd, which we don't know about right probably out,
Speaker 1: and then I have Michael Thomas and Marty Cooper, who's
Speaker 1: also a big question mark. Right, Cooper is a question mark.
Speaker 1: You know if you listen to the show that I'm
Speaker 1: down on him. Yeah, I mean that means you kind
Speaker 1: of do need Michael Thomas. Man, I think you kind
Speaker 1: of do need Michael Thomas. I love me some Kareem Hunt,
Speaker 1: but the fact of the matter remains that Kareem Hunt
Speaker 1: is gonna regress a little bit over the rest of
Speaker 1: the season. You know, I still think he's an RB one,
Speaker 1: but he's not gonna be what he was doing in
Speaker 1: the first two or three weeks of the season. And
Speaker 1: I think you need Michael Thomas, so I think you
Speaker 1: got to ride it out with Joe Mixon to Marco Murray.
Speaker 1: What you gotta hope is that Wendel Smallwood gets back
Speaker 1: into the mixed Thursday Night Football. I wouldn't do it
Speaker 1: because I think you really need Michael Thomas. I'm sorry
Speaker 1: to say, Scott. Let's keep it moving though here. Thanks
Speaker 1: for the call, and as we move on on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle, our next caller is Holland in New Jersey.
Speaker 1: Holland and New Jersey, you're here on the Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: How can we help Holly? Excuse me, Holly and New Jersey?
Speaker 1: What's going on? Are you there? Holly? You know I'm
Speaker 1: about maybe like by running back like a doula. See
Speaker 1: they nderstand moment going James White, Latt Murray and Duke Johnson.
Speaker 1: I was uh, I wanted to know, um, shut up up,
Speaker 1: drop Offla and picked up Andre and Ellerton or Marlon
Speaker 1: Max or should I pick up Chrick Hogan off the
Speaker 1: waiver wire? I mean, if if Hogan is available, I
Speaker 1: really like Hogan, but I also really like Mac and uh,
Speaker 1: who else did you say was available? There? Andre Ellington?
Speaker 1: Andre Ellington especially especially Holly, if you're in a PPR format,
Speaker 1: Andre Ellington is gold. Okay, he's He's got nine receptions
Speaker 1: the last two weeks in a row, and I don't
Speaker 1: think that's gonna change. I think he's gonna catch a
Speaker 1: lot of balls in that Arizona offense. So, Holly, I
Speaker 1: gotta ask you two things. One, if is it a
Speaker 1: PPR format. If it is, then I love Andre Ellington.
Speaker 1: And then other than that, you said Abdullah, and I
Speaker 1: got to hear the other one of your running backs,
Speaker 1: so I can tell you who I believe is at
Speaker 1: the bottom of that packing order. Who are your other
Speaker 1: running backs? Holly? I have I have, I have, I
Speaker 1: have James White, I have Murray, and I also have two. Okay,
Speaker 1: so here's the thing. Let me tell you something, Holly,
Speaker 1: real quick. As Murray is the bottom man on the
Speaker 1: totem pole, okay, I think he's the most expendable one.
Speaker 1: I like C. J. Anderson. He had the body Melvin
Speaker 1: Gordon blew up for you yesterday. James White in the
Speaker 1: PPR league is gonna get those receptions as well. You
Speaker 1: have enough running backs, Holly, to be quite honest. So
Speaker 1: while I like I like Andre Ellington. If you're gonna
Speaker 1: spend um, try and spend your waiver or anything, I
Speaker 1: would go for the wide receiver. I would go for
Speaker 1: Hogan out there in New England. Thanks for the call, though, Holly.
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. You're welcome here any time. Last
Speaker 1: question we have on the phone lines is Dan in Wisconsin. Dan,
Speaker 1: you're dropping stats over beats on the Fantasy Freestyle. You
Speaker 1: got a trade question. Let me try and help you out. Dan.
Speaker 1: What's up? Okay? So I'm currently sitting on C G Anderson,
Speaker 1: Doug Martin, Darke Cohen, Andre Ellington, and Marshawn Lynch, and
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get will four can go with the
Speaker 1: Shawn Watson, my quarterback. I'm curious to which one of
Speaker 1: those players or two should I package to try to
Speaker 1: get fair enough? And Jordy got you. Thanks for the
Speaker 1: called Dan. I out of these running backs, I think
Speaker 1: that the one that you should be most comfortable kind
Speaker 1: of dangling is Marshawn Lynch. And I say this for
Speaker 1: two reasons, Okay. One, if you know you have these
Speaker 1: guys on your team, You've seen the way Andrea Ellington
Speaker 1: is catching balls out of the backfield for you. The
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. You saw what Doug Martin did
Speaker 1: in his return. I think he's an RB two moving forward.
Speaker 1: He looked great for Tampa Bay on Thursday. C J
Speaker 1: andn of Sin I think is locked and loaded as well.
Speaker 1: So I think, Man, if you have c J. Anderson,
Speaker 1: Doug Martin, Terrecon and Andre Ellington, I think you're doing good.
Speaker 1: I would check the bye weeks and just make sure
Speaker 1: that doesn't you're not UM in a problem there on
Speaker 1: any of the bye weeks. Marshall and Lynch has not
Speaker 1: been doing it for Oakland. And the other thing is,
Speaker 1: if you're looking to dangle people in a trade, someone
Speaker 1: else in your league might believe in Marshawn Lynch just
Speaker 1: purely based on name value. Okay, so his name rings
Speaker 1: bells that he's not being able to answer right now, Okay,
Speaker 1: So I would move Marshawn Lynch if you're trying to
Speaker 1: get Will Fuller and get a little bit of stacked
Speaker 1: with Deshaun Watson. But thanks for the call. Dan. Here
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Freestyle listen, I talked about UM on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle how my boy down in Mexico City
Speaker 1: really felt the earthquake. We talked about d k MS
Speaker 1: all the time, the things that we do, and as
Speaker 1: you know here, guys, I'm a Puerto Rican from the Bronx. Okay.
Speaker 1: I had a lot of fans. We have a lot
Speaker 1: of people out there in Puerto Rico that are still struggling,
Speaker 1: including my old grandparents house and Iblneto in the center
Speaker 1: of the island. In the in the mountains got ransacked
Speaker 1: and destroyed. UM. An associate of mine from high school,
Speaker 1: you may know his name. His name is Linn Manuel
Speaker 1: Meatranda from in the Heights and from Hamilton's as well.
Speaker 1: He really organized some of the titans in Puerto Rican
Speaker 1: music and did a song for benefit to do relief
Speaker 1: and donations for the hurricane relief Hurricane Maria out there
Speaker 1: in Puerto Rico. I want to play a little bit
Speaker 1: of it right now. It's lin Manuel Maranda, people like
Speaker 1: Fat Joe, Glorious Stefan, Jennifer Lopez and Moore on a
Speaker 1: song called um. It's almost like praying. You know, we
Speaker 1: love the music here. We dropped stats over beats on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle, so I wanted to give this a
Speaker 1: little bit of love as well. This is my high
Speaker 1: school associated lin Manuel Miranda and some other titans in
Speaker 1: the industry with it's almost like praying to help benefit
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico. Chris, let's get to it so to sleep,
Speaker 1: cover throughful portal time and now sings for Sunny month
Speaker 1: Sun said was younger media for someone salad a mighty

Speaker 1: Sun Yeah most like that's a little bit of it's

Speaker 1: Manuel Branda and other artists like Fat Joe, Glorious Stefan.
Speaker 1: I love that that he's basically shouting out a ton
Speaker 1: of cities in Puerto Rico, including a Bonito where my
Speaker 1: grandparents are from as well. I know a lot of people.
Speaker 1: We're talking about and responding to all the causes that
Speaker 1: are out there. Listen, man, we are living in trying time.
Speaker 1: So if you win some money in fantasy or in dfs,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe you put a little bit out there
Speaker 1: to support people in need. When we come back, we're
Speaker 1: gonna check in on the polls. I'm also gonna give
Speaker 1: my quick preview of Monday night football Vikings and Bears.
Speaker 1: You know how we're doing. If he was on the
Speaker 1: YouTube livestream, you saw me doing a little bit of medanda.
Speaker 1: It's almost like praying. We dropped stats over beats right here,
Speaker 1: as the Fantasy Freestyle on the award winning Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network Fantasy Freestyle. The only thing that may have
Speaker 1: been ravaged like the New York Giants wide receiver room
Speaker 1: with the Houston Texans defense. J J. Watt broken leg.
Speaker 1: They say it's a really bad one there by the
Speaker 1: knee joint. I don't know if he's gonna be the same.
Speaker 1: I heard Nate Burlison on the NFL that we're talking
Speaker 1: about here he had this exact same injury and that
Speaker 1: he was really never the same even when he recovered
Speaker 1: from it. And also Wicky Merciless he's gonna be out
Speaker 1: for the year. He tore his pectoral muscle, so that
Speaker 1: Houston defense may not be the same moving forward week
Speaker 1: days from seven to eight pm. E. Stern on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Yeah, everywhere we go through all
Speaker 1: the gangsters around, they know my whole Crewel welcome back.
Speaker 1: To the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network, because we drop stats over beats, which boys feeds,
Speaker 1: because because the statistician. The Yankees have taken a to
Speaker 1: nothing lead on the Cleveland Indians as they look to
Speaker 1: get revenge against Trevor Bauer in Game four of the
Speaker 1: a l DS right there and force the deciding Game five.
Speaker 1: Yankees are up to nothing in the bottom of the
Speaker 1: second and looking for more against Trevor Bauer. Let me
Speaker 1: tell you a little bit about what I'm thinking here
Speaker 1: on Monday Night football. Okay. First of all, Sam Bradford
Speaker 1: is in fact active. Okay, so make sure he's in
Speaker 1: your lineup, not case Keenum if that's something you were
Speaker 1: dealing with. Okay, So Bradford is back. I think that
Speaker 1: means we're very excited to fire up Adam Feeling and
Speaker 1: mom man Stephen, can you digs it? What I'm interested
Speaker 1: to see on Minnesota is what does this running back
Speaker 1: room look like without Dalvin Cook? Okay, I think Latavia's
Speaker 1: Murray is just the guy in between the tackles. He's
Speaker 1: touchdown dependent, and I do think Jack McKinnon could be
Speaker 1: an option in PPR leagues. Let's see how that looks
Speaker 1: in the passing game. I have it as McKinnon greater
Speaker 1: than signed Latin Murray on the Chicago side. Listen, we
Speaker 1: all know it's the debut of Mitchell Trobinsky, So the
Speaker 1: question is like, what can you try to? You know,
Speaker 1: what nuggets can you mind for? And here's something and
Speaker 1: Tony Sankatta said it on Lineup Block Live. I also
Speaker 1: thought it with the backup quarterback. Look, two guys that
Speaker 1: were maybe second teamers in the preseason. So I like
Speaker 1: Deonte Thompson okay, because he might have some chemistry with
Speaker 1: Robinsky in training camp. Maybe they were throwing some back
Speaker 1: shoulder fades together as the twos ran in training. I
Speaker 1: can't remember at the beginning of the season or in
Speaker 1: training camp it was Cam Meredith, it was Kevin White
Speaker 1: that were the wide receivers. So on the side field
Speaker 1: and when the Twols got action, I bet it was
Speaker 1: Mitchell Trabinsky alone with Deontay Thompson. So I think Thompson
Speaker 1: could be a sneaky play both in DFS if you're
Speaker 1: in a little Monday Thursday slate action or moving forward
Speaker 1: and fantasy. He's led the Bears and receiving um like
Speaker 1: two of the last three weeks as well. So so
Speaker 1: think about that. Deonte Thompson could be a name if
Speaker 1: you want to get ahead of curve. Okay, with Mitchell Trabinsky. Ultimately, though,
Speaker 1: I do think that the Minnesota Vikings get it done.
Speaker 1: I think they go into Chicago. It's a tough ask
Speaker 1: for Traubinsky in his debut in a primetime game against
Speaker 1: the very good defense. Give me the Vikings with Bradford
Speaker 1: back under center, Giving me the Vikings today and something
Speaker 1: like a twenty seven sixteen kind of game. That's the
Speaker 1: way I think it's gonna go down tomorrow. But we're
Speaker 1: gonna be doing here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We're gonna
Speaker 1: be talking more about the hot ads, your waiver wires,
Speaker 1: your fab budget, and who I think you can believe in,
Speaker 1: who I don't think you can believe in. Will obviously
Speaker 1: be taking your calls as well at eight four four
Speaker 1: eight four, three six eight seven nine. You could always
Speaker 1: hit me up on Twitter as well. I try to
Speaker 1: get to everybody. It's tough to respond to everybody, but
Speaker 1: I try and do what I can. Okay, as you
Speaker 1: could always holler at me at spitting speeds as well.
Speaker 1: And like I said, we got the poll question up
Speaker 1: right now, which diamond and the rough helped you win
Speaker 1: Week five? Say Brian Hoyer. A lot of people say other,
Speaker 1: but then they didn't say who it was that helped him.
Speaker 1: Remember when I say diamond in the rough thinking about guys, Listen,
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette is not a diamond in the rough. A J.
Speaker 1: Green is not a diamond in the rough. Okay, Melvin
Speaker 1: Gordon is not a diamond in the rough. These are
Speaker 1: people that are owned on of league. So Brian Hoyer,
Speaker 1: Nelson Aghalor got fifteen percent another big time touchdown for
Speaker 1: the Eagles there, and Ed Dixon fourteen percent. He was
Speaker 1: only owned in like three percent of leagues. Other people
Speaker 1: are saying yo, Patrick heard out there at Underscore Grind
Speaker 1: Harder on Twitter says Will Fuller has put in work
Speaker 1: for two straight weeks. That is true. As Deshaun Watson
Speaker 1: throws another five touchdowns on Sunday Night Football, when will
Speaker 1: the league adjust to Deshaun Watson is the question? Clayton
Speaker 1: Trey hand of course saying Brian Hoyer by feeding Garson,
Speaker 1: They were definitely feeding Garson early on in that game.
Speaker 1: Remember Garson was also early on in his career in
Speaker 1: Indianapolis with Peyton Manning, So when they unveiled the statue
Speaker 1: and honored him, maybe he took it as an opportunity.
Speaker 1: It's not a revenge game per se, but looking a
Speaker 1: ball out as well, and then as the fool gaze,
Speaker 1: he's like one of the callers said Todd early thirty
Speaker 1: four percent, say Todd Gurley was the Fugazi. Don't worry
Speaker 1: about it, he'll be right back at it next week.
Speaker 1: Big Ben. I believe Big Ben is fine. The toys
Speaker 1: are still there. Listen, don't go crazy with Big Ben
Speaker 1: and the Amari Cooper at nine percent, though, I think
Speaker 1: it's time to move on from Amari. Cooper will tell
Speaker 1: you who are the wide receivers you may be able
Speaker 1: to add on the waiver wire tomorrow. On the Tuesday
Speaker 1: edition of The Fantasy Freestyle, Let's go Yankees. They're up
Speaker 1: to nothing now, looking to build some more when I
Speaker 1: come back. Hopefully there's season still remains. Speeds. It's betting
Speaker 1: statisticition on the Fantasy Freestyle. So y'all tomorrow
