23
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: I remember him, I just didn't listen to his music.

24
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,279
Speaker 1: He had one. It was on the radio every five minutes.

25
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: How many years ago? That was a lot. It's still

26
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: a very famous song, fabs. I'd rather listen to Van

27
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: Halen and Trickster. Okay, yeah, an awfully long podcast open.

28
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: If you saw American Ninja Mutant Ninja Turtles, he was

29
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: in the second movie, I believe, not the first one.

30
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: He was in the sequel, and he kind of had

31
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: a rap two Vanilla Ice. Yeah, sorry I missed that one.

32
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,479
Speaker 1: You don't know Robbie van We but you knew, don't

33
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,360

34
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: him at I same suburb, So I'm the same suburb.

35
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: You're about the same age. Did you know him? I

36
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: didn't know him. My friends all knew him, though, really,

37
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: but you didn't know? Never a great story if you know. Sorry,

38
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: my friends were friends with him. I was Vanilla ICE's

39
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: wing man. I was cruised alright. So we'll have a

40
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 1: Vanilla Ice coming up in a bit. I mean, not

00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,640

Speaker 1: the looks I get from these guys, and we're talking

44
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: Vanilla Ice amazing. Hello, Fantasy fans, Welcome to NFL Fantasy Live,

45
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,600

46
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: Ellian Harrison. Give me looks like, what are you doing

48
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: That's tomorrow, okay ye. At the end of the enner,

49
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: Sandman plays, I like that, Marianna Rivera, Let's do it.

50
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: I'm a James Ingo. Remember you can always submit your

51
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: questions and find the latest fantasy news by following us

52
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: at NFL Fantasy or on the Wings of Fantasy Love.

53
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,679
Speaker 1: According to Elias jeffer Oh, that's right time now for

54
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 1: some fantasy headlines. We kick things off in Green Bays.

55
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 1: Packers head coach Mike McCarthy announced that Aaron Rodgers has

56
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: not been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

57
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: He was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, but as

58
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 1: yet to be medically clear to play. Rogers said his

59
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 1: strength is coming back, as is the range of motion,

60
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: but the risk of re injury. That is the hurdle

61
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: to return. So if they're without Aaron Rodgers this week, fab,

62
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: what do you do? As far as Packers wide receivers.

63
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson to me is no more than a low

64
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: end to a high end three, A flex starter because

65
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 1: there's risk there. It's a good matchup in terms of

66
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: Jared Boykin no catches last week, no face points. That

67
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: makes it tough to start him. James Jones the same thing.

68
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: The only player in Green band that I have any

69
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: confidence in is Eddie Lacy. Can Are you okay with

70
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: any lazy this week? Yeah? I am okay with it.

71
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: He didn't have a good game against the Lions, but

72
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: they had no threat of a passing attack. The Falcons

73
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: don't have the defensive front that Detroit does. Jason, there's

74
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: no reason not to mention Eddie Lacy is playing at home.

75
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: You absolutely start him. He's the best weapon the Packers had.

76
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: What did Fred Jackson and C. J. Spiller do Atlanta

77
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: last week? Destroyed team. That's why you stick with Eddie

78
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: Lacy all right. On Tuesday, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin told

79
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: the media, look, I apolot No, Duck talked about lady

80
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: On Bell and said that his return thus far has

81
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: been very positive. Of Bell suffering a concussion in last

82
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: Thursday's game against the Ravens. Still progressing through the least

83
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: incussion protocol, but it does look good. Here's the thing.

84
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: If Levian Bell passes his test and he plays, he

85
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: plays for you. He's been the best running back in

86
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: fantasy the last three weeks. Moving on to San Francisco,

87
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: Vernon Davis and the Niners looking for a statement game

88
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: this weekend when they look to avenge that three throttling

89
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,559
Speaker 1: the Seahawks but on him in week two. Davis, quoted

90
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: by the San Jose Mercury News, is saying, quote, anytime

91
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: you play a team and you lose, the next opportunity

92
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: you get to play them again, It's definitely a statement game.

93
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: It might be the most intense game of the season

94
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: because those guys don't like us and we don't like them.

95
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: So what are your expectations for him this week? By

96
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: my expectations are, that's gonna be one heck of a

97
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: football game. Vernon Davis is a guy you have to start.

98
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 1: How many tight ends in the league can you trust

99
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,799
Speaker 1: from a fantasy respective. With that being said, the matchups

100
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: awful and he does not have a good history against Seattle.

101
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: I am still playing in. As for Michael Crabtree, I

102
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: was impressed with what he was able to do in

103
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: his first game back from achilles surgery, but I don't

104
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: think I could trust him right now. Elliott, I don't

105
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: like the matchup and Crabtree just doesn't have his football

106
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: leagues under him just yet. Yeah. I agree, he's gonna

107
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: have Sherman on him. Okay, you don't want Richard Sherman

108
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: on you. Vernon Davis in fourteen career games has three

109
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: touchdowns and forty two catches. Those are not good numbers.

110
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: You need more production than that. I like ant Kwan

111
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: Bolden because I think an't Kwan Bolden is going to

112
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: be exploit the Seahawks the rest of that secondary. I think,

113
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: can't Kwan Bolden get you double digit points this week?

114
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: He's a sleeper this week, alright, big sleeper an Kwan Boldin.

115
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 1: How about Mike Wallace. He was quoted telling the media

116
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: after the team's win against the Jets this weekend, I'm

117
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: a great player. I know that. It's all that really matters.

118
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: Let's call a spade a spade. All right. Wallace does

119
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: have twelve catches for two nine yards two touchdowns in

120
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: the past two weeks. But can you trust Mike Wallace

121
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: enough this week to play in fas they're finally in

122
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: sync or are they not in sync? That's the question.

123
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: Lately they have been in sync and I would play

124
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: him as a three. But I still have my reservations

125
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: about Mike Wallace, especially in this matchup in Pittsburgh. You

126
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: know that as much as he's gonna be gunning for

127
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: his old team, his old team is going to be

128
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: gunning for him to You guys, are all I ever wanted.

129
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: Steelers can't get any pass rush. They can't get any

130
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: pass dress and that's the Dolphins Achilles heel is their

131
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 1: pass protection. Well, if you can't exploit that, then Tannehill

132
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: is gonna have time to throw. I think Mike Wallace

133
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: with the motivation ten point game alright, time for us

134
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: to say bye bye bye and throw it over to

135
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: Molly Carram and Marcus Grant. Wow, a little in sync

136
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: reference there, Thank you gentlemen here with NFL dot Com

137
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: Fantasy editor Marcus Grant. Time now to take a look

138
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: at the top player ads on NFL dot com for

139
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: a week fourteen. Who are owners grabbing off waivers? Marcus

140
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 1: I like to call this the hotter not list and

141
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: taking a look here. One name that jumps out at

142
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: me is Julian Edelman. No surprise, he's passed Danny Amundel

143
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: on the depth chart and he matched dro off Gronkowski

144
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: for twelve targets the team lead on Sundays. Yeah, and

145
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, believe this or not, eleven red zone receptions

146
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: this season. That is tied for third most in the

147
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: National Football League. So not only is he getting the football,

148
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: he's getting it when it really counts. He's had a

149
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: hundred or more receiving yards in back to back football games.

150
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: I know we've struggled trying to figure out who the

151
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: top targets in New England, aren't we know? Rob Gronkowski

152
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: is number one. Julian Edelman has become the receiver that

153
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: we all thought that Danny Amndola was going to be.

154
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: This is the guy that you want to pick up

155
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: and have on your roster. He's owned in just over

156
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: leagues on NFL dot Com. He's still out there for

157
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: a lot of people. We'll talk about one of his

158
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: teammates in just a minute, Michael Floyd moving on to Arizona,

159
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: He's really emerged as a true go to guy for

160
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer at this point. He absolutely has. I mean,

161
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: we know Larry Fitzgerald is still the number one receiver

162
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: at least in name in Arizona, but Michael Floyd has

163
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: stepped up play very well. Ninety five or more receiving

164
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: yards in three straight games. Plus he's getting yards in

165
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: chunks twenty one plus yards for reception over the last month.

166
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: That second best in the National Football League. As Carson

167
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: Palmer has stopped turning the football over, he's connecting more

168
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: with his receivers, and Michael Floyd has become a bona

169
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: fide playmaker. He does have tough matchups at Tennessee in

170
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 1: Seattle Week's fifteen in sixteen, though, speaking of tough, let's

171
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: get to most drop players on NFL dot Com for

172
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: Week fourteen and looking at this list. Percy Harvin Marcus

173
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: since his Florida Day's we talked about this yesterday in

174
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: the show. He's just been plagued by medical ailments. He

175
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: just had a hit procedure. Can we trust him? I

176
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: don't know that I trust Percy Harvin, and I know

177
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: that's hard to say because a lot of people either

178
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: drafted him at the very end of their drafts or

179
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: picked him up and stashed him off the waiver wire.

180
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: At this point, it's hard to plug him in your lineup.

181
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: And I know you tried to exercise patients and that

182
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: sort of thing, but he has one chech all year.

183
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: He waited all you long to get on the field,

184
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: and as you mentioned the hip procedure, it's just really

185
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: tough to trust, and especially with some very difficult matchups

186
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 1: coming down the stretch. Stephen Ridley, we mentioned a Patriots,

187
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: a teammate of Julian Edelman being mentioned. Yes, he is

188
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: on the drop list, and we know one thing for sure,

189
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick cannot stand a man who can't hold onto

190
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: the ball. We call this fumbling glows, yes we do.

191
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: And because he is dropping the ball, a lot of

192
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: fantasy owners are dropping him. It's at this point that

193
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: maybe you don't drop him, depending on the depth of

194
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 1: your league, but you're at least putting him on the

195
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: bench just because you have no idea what's going on

196
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: with that running back situation, Shane Vereen has become the

197
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: guy to trust there in New England. If you're a

198
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: fantasy owner, I just don't know that you can put

199
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: Stephen Ridley in your line up with any confidence dropping

200
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: the ball literally in figuratively. Absolutely you you, my friend,

215
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: the usual suspects Michael Fabiano Elliott Harrison. Time for a

216
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: little Tina preview. We've got the Texans heading to jack

217
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: Sinville to take on a suddenly surging Jaguars, who are

218
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: winners of three of their last four games under new

219
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,839
Speaker 1: head coach Guests Bradley. Let's break down the matchup from

220
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: a fantasy perspective, and we're gonna begin with the Texans here, guys,

221
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,839
Speaker 1: and you're expecting double digit points from from all of them?

222
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: I know, is that shocking? It's a bit shocking, shocking.

223
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 1: We're almost in lockstep. I've got vent take a little

224
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 1: bit higher than you though, Febs, Yeah, you do. And

225
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 1: the Jaguars have been better against the running lately, but

226
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: overall not very good, especially on their home field. Case Keenom,

227
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: I think can have a good game. I'm not saying

228
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 1: I'm on the start case Kingdom in most fantasy start

229
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: this is a good matchup. Let's get into a player

230
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: by player, starting with case Gadom. He bounced back from

231
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: his nightmare to Week twelve effort, but he struggled last

232
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 1: time against the Jacks. He did, and again I still

233
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: like this matchup. Look what look the Cleveland Browns did

234
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 1: last week From a quarterback position. Brandon Weed had a

235
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: very strong game. From a fantasy perspective, I think Keenom

236
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: could have a good game. And remember we've seen a

237
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: lot of these young quarterbacks put up some pretty good

238
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: number is Nick Foles comes to mind, of course, and

239
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 1: keen him earlier on in the season. I think he's

240
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: acquitted himself pretty well. Michael, and I mean, who can't

241
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: get excited about keenum Henny. I mean that's like stall

242
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: back Bradshaw. Oh yeah, just like it at all. But

243
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: this is a fantasy show. Ben take dealing with a

244
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: ribbon ankle injury. What can we expect from him in

245
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 1: this matchup? I like Ben taiting. This came a little

246
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: more than Michael and I think, really the difference for

247
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: me is just the touchdowns. He's had cracked ribs now

248
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: for several weeks, but he had twenty two carries for

249
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 1: over a hundred yards against New England. I mean they're

250
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: not The workload is not the problem. That's what I'm saying.

251
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 1: You're saying that the matchup is a little stiffer than

252
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 1: the Patriots. I get it, But just from a carry standpoint,

253
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 1: I like him. I still like him. He is going

254
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: to be a lowand RV two or reflex in just

255
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 1: about every league. This week, guys, let's take a look

256
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 1: at Andre Johnson's numbers this season with case Keenum under center.

257
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: It's important to note that all five of Johnson's touchdowns

258
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 1: this year have come with Keenum at quarterback. Also, in

259
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 1: about six games with Keenum at the helm, Johnson has

260
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: eighty six point nine Fantasy points while only having fifty

261
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: five point four Fantasy points with match shop in t J.

262
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: Yates playing QB. So what are we expecting from the

263
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: future Hall of pamer Well, This is deceiving. Yes, he

264
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,959
Speaker 1: has five touchdowns with komt quarterback, but he's only scored

265
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: in two games. You have three in one game. With

266
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: that being said, you're still starting on the even if

267
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: he's a low end two, and the PPR league is

268
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: going to have more value Andre Johnson. To me, Elliott

269
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 1: is too valuable to bench unless I have got say,

270
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: Josh Gordon and alshon Jeffrey right and and here's the thing,

271
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: And even then if you play him in your flex,

272
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: because how many good running backs are there to go around?

273
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 1: Here's the deal, and I have the numbers right here,

274
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: eighty two catches eleven hundred yards and five touchdowns eighty

275
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: two catches for eleven hundred yards. Sometimes we expect a

276
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: little bit too much of these guys. There's no way,

277
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: you said, Andre Johnson, I get it with the five

278
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: touchdowns in two games. But what if he has a

279
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: ten yards for you? No touchdowns? You got? You got it.

280
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: Don't get crazy, start your steads. All right, Let's look

281
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 1: at the other side of this matchup. Chad Henny through

282
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:57,839
Speaker 1: two t d s and the win last week versus

283
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 1: the Browns. It was the first time all season he'd

284
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 1: thrown for more than one in a game. So let's

285
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: look at your projections here for the rest of Jacksonville.

286
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: The thing that stands out to me the most here fabs.

287
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: You're very high on m j D while Elliot's liking

288
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: Cecil Shorts. So let's get into a gentleman start with

289
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: the Jacks starting quarterback Elliott jat Henny. Yeah, you know,

290
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: it's it's hard for me to recommend you playing Chad Henny.

291
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: If you want me to be positive, Perry, I'll try.

292
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,719
Speaker 1: He had a huge game against the Texans last year.

293
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: When I mean a huge game, I mean a huge

294
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,719
Speaker 1: game four touchdowns and gobs of yardage. But here's the thing.

295
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: The guys throwing ten interceptions this year. He's got more

296
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: interceptions and touchdowns those minus two is kirchen fantasy, Michael,

297
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 1: I just can't see any way to recommend two people

298
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 1: in the playoffs to play Chad Henny unless it's a

299
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: Chad Henny only league. I would be sitting Chad Henny.

300
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: But we all want gobs of yardage. Elliott Harrison, Alright,

301
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: m j D. He did it all Sunday. He's had

302
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: his best two games. Will we do it again against

303
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 1: the Texas. Hey, I'm gonna be a positive Perry, not

304
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 1: a negative Nancy, and tell you this start. Maurice Jones drew.

305
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 1: The last time he played in the Houston Texans, he

306
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: had well over a hundred scrimmage yards and over twenty

307
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: fantasy points. Hey, listen. After a slow start, m j

308
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: D has actually been one of the more consistent fantasy

309
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: running backs in the National Football League. Stardom and startom

310
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 1: with confidence. He will give you gobs and gobs of yards.

311
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: Marvel Less Molly here wants to know fabs cecil shorts

312
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: limited by a coroin. What can we expect from him.

313
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: Cecil Shorts, to me, is going to be a guy

314
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: who will score seven or eight fantasy points. I don't

315
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: love the matchup. The last time he played against Houston,

316
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: he had right around seven points. Great game last week

317
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: against Joe Hayden, one of the best cover corners of

318
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: the National Football League. But I just don't trust Cecil

319
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: Shorts enough to play him as more than a third

320
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: white out this week in a PPR lead see. I

321
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: think Houston is gonna stack up against the run. That's

322
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: why I don't have m j D having the monster points.

323
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: I think he gets ad something yards rushing. The difference

324
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: between Michael and my pet projections are the touchdowns. I

325
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 1: think they're gonna stack up against the run and Cecil

326
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: Shorts gets the touchdown that you're giving to m j D.

327
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: Either way, I think you start both. We shall see.

328
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: We call that hashtag fantasy problems. And for your nightcap,

329

351
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: our own Fantasy Hall of Famer Michael Fabiano, and every

352
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: Wednesday you reveal all your stars that sits for the week.

353
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: A big week, likely the first week of your playoffs.

354
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: So let's start with the quarterbacks four week four team.

355
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: These are Michael Fabiano's recommendations. Matthew Stafford Nick Foles as

356
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: close to a must starter as you can get. R

357
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: G three on this list. Ryan Fitzpatrick your sleep alert,

358
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: Josh McCown and you know fas Nick Foles. Every day

359
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: he gets some good news. Always a quarterback for this season,

360
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: quarterback for next year, this week he's your quarterback. Yeah,

361
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: and the quarterback for the next thousand years. I guess

362
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 1: for the Philadelphia Eagles, they must have some core, some

363
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: sort of deal where they have long life. I guess

364
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: in the quarterback position there in phil Aadelphia. Two plus

365
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: fantasy points in four straight games playing against the Detroit Lions.

366
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 1: They have allowed eight passing touchdowns in their last three

367
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 1: road games. Jason, this is going to be a shootout.

368
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 1: Whether it's two thousand thirteen or a thousand years from now,

369
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 1: I'm starting Nick Foles. When Boba Fette crawls out of

370
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 1: the star like stomach, Nick Foles will still be the

371
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 1: quarterback of the and he will be starting in my

372
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: fantasy league, all right. Andrew Luck who was starting for

373
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: you most of the season, but me this week in

374
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: our Expert League playoffs. He's having a seat for me.

375
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: He's having a seat for you. Yeah, listen, this is

376
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: an awful match up against the Bengals. They have allowed

377
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: the second fewest fantasy points of quarterbacks on their home field.

378
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: Three touchdown passes, nine interceptions at home. That's what the

379
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: Bengals have allowed. Luck has been unlucky without Reggie Wayne

380
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 1: with offensive line issues. You can't play him at this point.

381
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 1: He's not playing at home, he's not playing well. He

382
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: doesn't have a good matchup. That's three strikes exactly. I'm

383
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: sitting Andrew Luck for Ryan Fitzpatrick in the playoffs this week,

384
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 1: and I think that's the right move. Thank you. I

385
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 1: appreciate you for packing me up on that. I appreciate that. FABS,

386
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 1: all right, here's FABS running backs here, Marco Murray, Eddie Lacey,

387
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: Maurice Jones, Drew Stephen Jack some sleeper alert, Bobby Rainy

388
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,479
Speaker 1: against Buffalo. Yes, C J. Spill are getting a lot

389
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 1: of the attention here, but Rady's got a great match

390
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,239
Speaker 1: against the Bills. Considering what this guy did against them

391
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: a week ago. You're saying start Stephen Jackson. Finally right,

392
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: We're finally able to start Steven Jackson after a very

393
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: long season Packers this week. It's a great matchup. They've

394
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,479
Speaker 1: allowed the fourth most fancy points to running guys over

395
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: the last four weeks. Jackson has three rushing touchdowns in

396
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 1: his last two games. The Falcons are starting to find

397
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 1: some success on the ground, even with a questionable offensive line.

398
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: And again, the matchup is just two good of ignore

399
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: even if he should reflex, Jason, you're starting Steven Jackson.

400
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: Now you're saying sit Frank Bore? Is this a straight

401
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: sit for him this week? For you? You would have

402
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: to be very deep in your backfield to be able

403
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: to bench him, especially if you have a flex. But

404
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: this matchup is just absolutely terrible to Seahawks have a

405
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 1: lot the seventh fewest fantasy points to running backs this

406
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: season and no rushing touchdowns in five straight games. And

407
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 1: if you look at Gore, his track record against Seattle

408
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: is not good. One rushing touchdown and his last seven

409
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 1: games against those Seahawks. So this is a very very

410
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 1: tough matchup. I would start Bobby Rainey over Frank Gore.

411
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: Not a lot of Niners in general didn't have great

412
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,120
Speaker 1: matchups against the Seattle Seat at all, even the defense. Yes,

413
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 1: beware the forty Niners this week. Let's get to the

414
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: wide receivers now, Fab says, Vincent Jackson is a go,

415
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: Pierre Garson is a go. Wiley Cooper against Detroit Lions.

416
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: Harry Douglas, you're a sleeper. Here's Tory Smith, FABS, and

417
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: we kind of forget about him flying to the radar

418
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: some of these other bigger name wide receivers. But he's

419
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: got a phenomenal matchup. He's having a career here and

420
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 1: he's got a great matchup, as you mentioned, against the Vikings.

421
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: They have allowed the fourth most fantasy points to wide

422
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: receivers this season twenty six receiving touchdowns allowed. That's the

423
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: most in the National Football League. Joe Flacco's main guy,

424
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 1: Tory Smith. You see him here making a great catch.

425
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: He really burned Ike Taylor last week, and I think

426
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,680
Speaker 1: he's gonna do the same to Minnesota's defensive backfield this Sunday.

427
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 1: On the other side of the ledger, Steve Smith is

428
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 1: a said it's been tough to start Steve Smith most

429
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 1: of the year. It has been this guy was once

430
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: a Fantasy superstar. Now he's more of a Fantasy zero.

431
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: The Saints have allowed the fifth est fantasy points to

432
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: wide receivers at home this year as well. So not

433
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 1: only is Steve Smith struggling to produce, but the matchup

434
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 1: Jason is not favorable whatsoever. Right moving on to the

435
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: tight ends, you're playing plug and play this week more

436
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 1: so than the last couple of weeks, because there's some

437
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: guys that are probably still available in your league that

438
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,439
Speaker 1: are very good matchup based starters. Jared Cook sleep alert

439
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: for FABS Brandon Myers. At San Diego Week one, FABS

440
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 1: Jared Cook looked like he was going to be the

441
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: best tight end in the league, and he's been quiet

442
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: all the way until now. But he's got that rematch.

443
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 1: The Cardinals have just been so bad and Cook starting

444
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 1: to heat up two touchdowns in his last four games.

445
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: Arizona has given up the most Fantasy points of tight ends.

446
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 1: They've given up the most receiving yards, They've given up

447
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: the most touchdowns. Look at what zach Ertz and Brent

448
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,719
Speaker 1: selected to them last week. It's every single week at

449
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: tight end is beating up on the Arizona Cardinals, So

450
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: why not start Jared Cooking? You know what, Jason, He's

451
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 1: available in a lot of leagues. On NFL dot Com,

452
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 1: people dropped him. I picked him up this week and

453
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: start him unless I had an elite option. Alright, Jordan

454
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 1: Cameron used to be an e lead option. You're starting

455
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: one of these guys over Cameron this Jared cook no

456
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: doubt about that. Hey, Jordan Cameron had a good matchup

457
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 1: last week. I said to start them. It didn't work out.

458
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: One touchdown in his last eight games. The Patriots have

459
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 1: allowed the third theist fantasy points of tight ends on

460
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: their home field. I don't know who the quarterback is

461
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: going to be in Cleveland, but it's not going to matter.

462
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: Jordan Cameron, who is a superstar early on in the season,

463
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: he has done a one eighties statistically to the point

464
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: where you can't even play him. Yeah, that's one thing

465
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 1: we've seen. It doesn't matter who was throwing the football

466
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: to Josh Gordon, he still makes plays. Jordan Cameron. If

467
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 1: it wasn't Brandon Weeden early, he's not going to give

468
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 1: you any kind of production. A couple of defenses we

469
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: like for this week, starting with the new England Patriots

470
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: number one rated defense. We have right now on NFL

471
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: dot Com. A phenomenal matchup. Yeah, Cleveland's offense very lately

472
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 1: is turning the ball over and this is just a

473
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: phenomenal matchup for the Patriots. Now. I like the Patriots.

474
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 1: Last week. They didn't have a very good game against Houston,

475
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: but they're back at home this week. I still like

476
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: the matchup the Open Raiders. You haven't mentioned them at

477
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:56,919
Speaker 1: all this week playing them against the Jets. You've been

478
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 1: very quiet about that, haven't said it on the show once. Well,

479
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 1: you know why because I feel I feel bad because

480
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 1: I take shots to the Jets so often. But I'll

481
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: take the time to do that right now. Whatever defense

482
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: is playing the Jets, you start. Then. Over the last

483
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: three weeks, teams are averaging over fifteen Fantasy points a

484
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 1: game playing against the New York Jets. We saw what

485
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: happened with the Dolphins, the Ravens the week before the Bills,

486
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: the game before even the Raiders. We are saying to

487
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: start against Geno Smith and that offenseless team in New York.

488
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 1: Sorry about that. That's no, You've said. Everything you said

489
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 1: has been the truth. That's what I like that. Give

490
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: me the truth, the truth, Smith, I speak the truth.

491
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 1: I'm not sure about the Jacoby Ells. Very sign up

492
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 1: for the Yankees, that's the truth. Allso with the truth

493
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 1: is the Jets no pointo this season? All right? Very good.

494
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 1: Let's get some sleepers for Week four team now and

499
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 1: But for you find folks at home or just watching

500
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: on your computer, I'm gonna give you us egue peak

501
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: right now. Let's take a look at some of those names,

502
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: and there are a number of quarterbacks. If you are

503
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: looking for a guy to play this week, perhaps Ryan Fitzpatrick,

504
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: Alex Smith has been killing it over the last couple

505
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 1: of weeks. Donald Brown has been good, Michael Floyd, Bobby

506
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: Woods is a personal favorite of mine and the Raiders defense.

507
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: But let's start with another quarterback, and that's Josh mccount

508
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: of the Chicago Bears. You look at the match of

509
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: the Cowboys have allowed the second most fantasy points of

510
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,959
Speaker 1: quarterbacks this season. They've allowed five touchdown passes in their

511
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 1: last two games against the Bears and have allowed three

512
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:35,199
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty passing yards in two consecutive games. So

513
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: this is a great matchup for Josh mccount and of course,

514
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 1: if Jay Cutler does return to play for the Chicago Bears,

515
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 1: what I said about Josh McCown goes double for him.

516
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: Let's move on to the running backs, and Monty Ball

517
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 1: is a nice player there. Out of Denver, the Titans

518
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: allowed the six most fantasy points to running backs this season.

519
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: They've also allowed sixteen rushing touchdowns this season, that second

520
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: most in the NFL. And if you watched the Broncos

521
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: of late, you know that Monty Ball has a nose

522
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: for the end zone. He has been somebody who has

523
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 1: been known to take a carry from No Shawan Morino

524
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 1: here or there. So Monty Ball is a guy that

525
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 1: you can flex this week and feel pretty confident with. Now,

526
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: do you need a wide receiver? How about Rod Streeter?

527
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 1: It might be funny to think, but New Raiders quarterback

528
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 1: Matt McGloin knows a guy and the guy he knows

529
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: is Rod Street. Or if you look at and If

530
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 1: you look at the matchup, the Jets have allowed the

531
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 1: six most fantasy points a wide receiver this season. They've

532
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 1: allowed at least two touchdown passes and four their last five.

533
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: And they're the Jets. They don't stop anybody. So that

534
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,679
Speaker 1: is a pretty good matchup and that is gonna do

535
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 1: it this week for Ranks eleven. If you need any more,

Speaker 1: for this, just taking some notes, gentlemens. Okay, we have

559
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 1: hottest names you just meant and that is trending right

560
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 1: now on Fantasy Genius is Cam Newton. What are your

561
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 1: expectations for him the next couple of weeks? Well, I

562
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,400
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be tough the next couple of weeks.

563
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 1: But two of his next three games are His next

564
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: three games were against the New Orleans Saints, who have

565
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 1: been fantastic defensively this season, and he generally hasn't played

566
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: well against the Saints in his career. You know, it's

567
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: hard to imagine you've got a better option on your

568
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: roster than Cam Newton. But if you're playing him, just

569
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: temper your expectations. Cookies and cream, Marcus. I agree with

570
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 1: you completely, but I disagree with you on not having

571
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 1: better roster options. People that took Cam high were able

572
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 1: to swing back around and get Matt Stafford, Tony Romo

573
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: or Matt Ryan. I wouldn't play Matt Ryan, but I'd

574
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: play Romo or Stafford over Cam Newton, Who's who historically

575
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 1: has not been good at the super Dome, but in

576
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,919
Speaker 1: reality playing his best football this season at nine and

577
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 1: three's best rusher maybe on that team. Alright, guys, it's

578
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: time now for Engineer to win. Presented by Volkswagen. You

579
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 1: know what we do. We put one thirty on the clock.

580
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: We let it RiPP go through as many fantasy genius

581
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 1: questions as we hand submitted by the fans. You're ready, Yeah,

582
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: Number one, better start Kim Newton against the Saints or

583
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 1: Nick Foles versus the Lions. I'm going with Nick Foles.

584
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 1: The Lion secondary is beat up. I think he can

585
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 1: he can exploit that I create. It's just a better

586
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: matchup form period. I'll take Nick Foals Tony Gonzalez against

587
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: the Packers or Kobe Fleaner versus the Bengals. I don't

588
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,360
Speaker 1: like Kobe Flinner. I didn't like him last week. It's

589
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: not that I don't like him personally. Tony Gonzalez versus

590
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: the Packers to me is a better matchup Tony. I

591
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 1: imagine Fleiner is a very nice fellow. I actually like

592
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 1: him a little bit. I think the fun is gonna

593
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: start working to a lolo in there, and it's gonna

594
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: really mess up Gonzalez. Start time for emotions this week

595
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 1: fourteen disappointment. I'm going Ben Taate. I know you like

596
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: Ben Tait this week, Elliot, but I think Ben take

597
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: could get pulled the favor of Dennis Johnson at some point.

598
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Adrian Peterson. I know that people are

599
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: relying on him to get him Fantasy points, getting twenty

600
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: Fantasy points for their playoff matchup. I think Gadrian Peterson's

601
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: gonna be more around the twelve four teen market. Best

602
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 1: better start Giovanni Bernard or Zach Stacy. I'll go Gio

603
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: Bernard Man I don't like exact Stacy's matchup. Yeah, same exactly,

604
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: and I'm going with you over this week. The biggest

605
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: Week fourteen surprise, I think the biggest week four teen,

606
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 1: surprise r G three against that Chiefs defense that's struggling.

607
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 1: Kwenden Sherman will be on crabtree. I'm telling you An

608
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: Kwan Bold right now, over ten fantasy points getting crazy

609
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: this week, I still in the blank, will have more

610
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 1: than from a thirty fantasy point. I'm going r G

611
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: three again. I think I think he goes big against

612
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,880
Speaker 1: the Chiefs this week. Well, I'm saying nobody, no one

613
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 1: gets over twenty five fantasy about that shock better start

614
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 1: Eric Decker, all Shan Jeffrey all Sean Jeffrey. Dude's been

615
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 1: on fire lately. I agree with that completely, and it

616
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 1: doesn't matter who's throwing to it. It does not. We

617
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 1: see his catch against the Vikings and one that was

618
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: as good as the Tyreek, and he has a good

619
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: matchup this week. He does, he does, secondary can't stop anybody.

620
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: We were challenged to get through as many questions as

621
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: we could this week. You know we're falling off our

622
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 1: a game, but I think we did it. We ripped

623
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 1: through those. We do Marcus First, Elliotts analysis, No, but

624
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: please give them in some breathing room, all right. That

625
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: was engineered to win. Presented by Volkswagen and let's throw

626
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 1: it over to FABS, who's joined by a very special guest.

627
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: Thanks guys, Michael Fabiano here joined by Vikings wide receiver

628
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: and two time Pro bowler Greg Jennings. How you doing,

629
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: my man? I'm doing great. How about it? So I'm

630
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: doing well? Good to see it. Now. The Vikings have

631
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: dealt with a lot of injuries at the quarterback position

632
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: this season, with Christian Ponder in and out. Now, do

633
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 1: you know who the starting quarterback is going to be

634
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: this weekend in Baltimore? I believe it's going to be

635
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: Matt Um. It's with the way they have the concussion

636
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: rules and all the tests you have to pass. Um,

637
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: you know it'll be a long shot, probably for Christian.

638
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,959
Speaker 1: But you know, I don't get the nod on that.

639
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 1: I don't I don't dictate who plays quarterbacks, so uh

640
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: but that's a guess, just a guest. So with the quarterback,

641
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: with the quarterback sort of coming in and out of

642
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 1: the starting lineup this season, has it been hard for

643
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: you and the rest of the wide receivers to gain

644
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: a rep or with the signal callers on your roster. No,

645
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: not at all. It's been it's been a little bit

646
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: of a challenge. It's been a little bit of a challenge,

647
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: but um, you know, every season has his adversities and

648
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: this has been one that we've had to overcome this year. UM.

649
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 1: Hopefully we corrected so that it's not an ongoing thing

650
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: from for years to come. But UM, it's definitely been

651
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,719
Speaker 1: one that we've overcome. And you know, it's been growing,

652
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:30,239
Speaker 1: it's been growing pains throughout it, but um, we were

653
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: able to get a win this past week. Now, let's

654
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,719
Speaker 1: talk about Adrian Peterson. You played against him for so

655
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: many years with the Green Bay Packers. How does it

656
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: feel to have this guy in your offense now? It

657
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: feels great obviously when you played against a guy that's

658
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: as explosive and that can make as many plays as

659
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: he can. Um, he would love to be partners and

660
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 1: team up with the guy like that, and I've had

661
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: that opportunity. UM. I wish that I could hold up

662
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: my end of the bargain a little bit more, but

663
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 1: he's definitely he's definitely held up his end of the bargain.

664
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: They're giving your thoughts on Cordelle Patterson. Can he become

665
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 1: an elite wide receiver? Both in fantasy and in the

666
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: National Football League Absolutely, absolutely, no doubt. Um, it's just

667
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: about getting the ball in his hands and allowing them

668
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 1: to make plays. But he definitely can become an elite receiver.

669
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 1: Now I'm friends with your kicker, Blair Walsh. We text

670
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: all the time talk fantasy football. He's big time into fantasy. Now,

671
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 1: I know you still don't play, which I'm gonna try

672
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: to get you play in fantasy football, even if it's

673
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: after you're done playing in the NFL, because it's so

674
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 1: much fun. Do you know of any other teammates that

675
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 1: play fantasy football, or any of the guys in the

676
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: league or into fantasy like Blair's, Well, I have played,

677
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: but um, I know Toby, Toby Gerard. He he definitely plays.

678
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: And I guess see the kickers all have this the

679
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: time on their hands. So Jeff Hockey plays, you know

680
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 1: Blair and not doing it, And you probably are texting

681
00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: them during practice too, practice for the first twenty minut

682
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: is and then they have the rest of the day off.

683
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: See now that when Blair's texting me, the rest of

684
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 1: you guys are practicing, and he's kind of figuring out

685
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: who's going to start exactly exactly. He's probably winning and

686
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 1: winning in all this fantasy lad. I know, I know

687
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: he's doing pretty well. He's got a pretty good set

688
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 1: of wide receivers on one of those teams. Hey, Greg,

689
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us here on NFL

690
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,120

692
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: It's a must win week in fantasy, and we're going

693
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 1: to help you set your lineup with some of the

694
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: best starts of the week. We don't want you to

695
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: end up watching the Fantasy Championship from the sidelines and Vanilla.

696
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: I've said it best. It's time to drop the zero

697
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: and get with this hero. We'll tell you which starts

698
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 1: to rely on for the playoffs and which ones will

699
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 1: be ice ice cold. Word to your mother, word to

700
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: your mother. This is NFL Fantasy Live. He stepped up.

701
00:32:54,600 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 1: He is going to star. End it end so but

702
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: a touchdown what I catched by markets post Palmer throws

703
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 1: absolutely perfect. Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live, the official

704
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: fantasy football show of the National Football League. Jason Smith

705
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: here now all with all the guys. And it was

706
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: when the movie cool as Ice came out and Vanilla

707
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 1: Ice gave us the immortal line, dropped the zero and

708
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 1: get with the hero So because we're not about the

709
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: whole reason, we're doing just because we're doing heroes and zeros.

710
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: That's what we're doing here. Fantasy playoffs. Zeros. Guys may

711
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: have been good season so far, but we're gonna underperforming

712
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: the Fantasy playoffs, and guys who have kind of flown

713
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: under the radar but are now gonna be fantasy heroes

714
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 1: for you as you get to the Fantasy playoffs. So

715
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 1: first up, fabs, check out the hook on Andrew Luck

716
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 1: WI my DJ revolves it. I can't even spot I'm

717
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: going with the Andrew Luck. I don't even know what

718
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: you just said. I just think the matchups don't look

719
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: good for Andrew Luck. He's got a bad one this

720
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: weekend Sincinnati, then he's playing at Kansas City and Fantasy

721
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: Championship Week decent one into tweet at home against the

722
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: Houston Texas. But Andrew Look has two touchdown passes and

723
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: five picks in his last four games. He has seriously

724
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: seen his numbers decrease. I can't even come up with

725
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,479
Speaker 1: a line from a Vanilla Ice song, Jason, I'm gonna

726
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: have to lean on. But the fact of the matter

727
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: here is that Andrew Look is going to be a zero.

728
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 1: All right. I got you covered the rag tops down

729
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 1: so my hair can blow on. Carson Palmer, he's been

730
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. It's a line from the song.

731
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:28,919
Speaker 1: He's been pretty good in the last couple of weeks.

732
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,439
Speaker 1: But the Rams what they do best, They get after

733
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: the quarterback. They sack him and they get interceptions. Carson

734
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,120
Speaker 1: Palmer's got a tough matchup this week, and it just

735
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: gets tough, tougher, toughest. This is the main reason why

736
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 1: I don't like Carson Palmer St. Louis then at Tennessee

737
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: at Seattle. As good as he's been, I can't start

738
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 1: him with any confidence this week and moving on in

739
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 1: the Fantasy playoffs, right, Elliott, give me your A one

740
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: a Detroit Avenue. Well, I tell you I will. I

741
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 1: made you Vanilla I's mix tape. See what you see here,

742
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 1: Say a little Marcus Coulson, a little Lance more music.

743
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: I don't like any of these guys are playing the

744
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:06,240
Speaker 1: Panthers twice and sandwiched in between the Rams, the Rams

745
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,280
Speaker 1: are gonna be playing at home. They give up about

746
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: two pass yards a game and under two touchdowns a

747
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 1: game that means you're Saints. Touchdown is probably gonna go

748
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 1: to Jimmy Graham and maybe if they get another one,

749
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: maybe like Pierre Thomas. But you don't want to start

750
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 1: Kenny Stills or Lance Moore, Marcus Colston when you really

751
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 1: need to win when they're playing the Panthers, Rams and

752
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: Panthers again. All right, the girl he's on standby waiting

753
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: just to say, hi, Marcus Grant, you don't like Marshawn Lynch. Now,

754
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 1: then I stopped. No, I just rolled by, And then

755
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch has been fantastic all season long. You know,

756
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 1: I can't in good conscience tell you to sit him,

757
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 1: but I will tell you to temperate your expectations and

758
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 1: schedules like a chemical spill. He's got the forty Niners,

759
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: He's got the Cardinals coming up in the next few weeks.

760
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 1: It's not a very good look for Marshawn Lynch. Stop

761
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: that train. I want to get off. All right, Let's

762
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 1: take a look at our fantasy playoff zeros to recap again.

763
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 1: These are guys that are pretty good regular seasons, but

764
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 1: now looking forward, really tough matchups. We don't like Andrew Luck,

765
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer, any Saints wide receiver, Marshall Lynch to give

766
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 1: you big fantasy points going forward. So now we're dropping

767
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: the zeros and now we're gonna get with the heroes.

768
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: We'll talk about the players that will emerge this year

769
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: as fantasy playoff heroes. And the thing is, we've been

770
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 1: talking about this vanilla ice thing all morning, and still

771
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 1: Fatis gets thrown off by the slightest widow lines though.

772
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: So I feel like I'm a disavenged but you're at

773
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: a disavanngaged to right with me. But one hero that

774
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,879
Speaker 1: I like is Nick Foles. And this is a guy

775
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,839
Speaker 1: who has helped me in my league of record over

776
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 1: the last several weeks. He scored over twenty two fantasy

777
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: points in four straight games. Yes, thirteen touchdown passes in

778
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: his last five weeks. That's the most among quarterbacks in

779
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: the National Football League. I like the matchup this week

780
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,359
Speaker 1: against the Detroit Lions. Then he goes to Minnesota, which

781
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 1: is an even better matchup, finishes with the Chicago Bears

782
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia. Nick fouls the guy who wasn't even drafted

783
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,320
Speaker 1: in most leagues. So at one point he was a

784
00:36:55,440 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 1: zero and now he's a hero. No I try, I

785
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 1: just say it like Christopher Walker, the zero. Get Look.

786
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton is a rockman, lover driving Lamborghini's right now.

787
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: He's someone who is much better at home than he

788
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 1: is on the road. He's been hot, eight passing touchdowns

789
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: the last three home games. This is how his playoff

790
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:20,439
Speaker 1: schedule lays out the rest of the way. Indianapolis this week,

791
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 1: very good matchup. Then he's at Pittsburgh. He finishes against Minnesota.

792
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: There'll be a lot of people who will be starting

793
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton Championship week and they'll be happy they did.

794
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 1: That match against the Vikings is going to be huge.

795
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: I know we had a down week a week ago.

796
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: It's okay, go back to Andy Dalton, Elliott, can you

797
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,280
Speaker 1: go back to Keenan Allen. Let me tell you something,

798
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: you know. I think on the B side of Ice

799
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,240
Speaker 1: Ice Baby, I think Vanilla Ice covered play that funky music.

800
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 1: He think he covered it. And by the way, B

801
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 1: side is a cassette for all of our viewers out there.

802
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: It's a good thing that he covered that because Broncos

803
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: haven't been covering anybody this year. And you see what

804
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: I did there. Keenan Allen plays them week fifteen. He

805
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: plays the Raiders week sixteen, who he had seventeen point

806
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 1: five fantasy points against, and he's got the Giant it's

807
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 1: this week who have been merely so so so. I

808
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 1: like Keenan Allen. He's had a hundred yard games. But

809
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: there it is. You see the graphic and back to

810
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 1: back games. Alright, time to stop collaborate and listen to

811
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: Marcus Grant who said to Marco Murray, there's a playoff here.

812
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: I do like the Marco Murray a lot coming up.

813
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: He scored four total touchdown the last four weeks. Certainly

814
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,280
Speaker 1: he's going to get more opportunities. With Lance at Dunbar

815
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 1: not in the lineup. He's got a very favorable schedule

816
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: the Bears, the Packers, the Redskins to finish out the season.

817
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: Start the Barker Murray against your opponent. You will wax

818
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,959
Speaker 1: that jump like a candle. All right, here are your

819
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,320
Speaker 1: fantasy playoff heroes again a recap. Guys. We think that

820
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: that okay regular season, but they're really gonna step up

821
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: during the Playoffs Fantasy players for you Nick Foles, Annie Dalton,

822
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,439
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen de Marco Murray And isn't a B side

823
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 1: of record? Did you flip over that had an alpine

824
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 1: removable face? Yeah? Actually, wow, that's a little too much, Okay.

00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: to NFL Fantasy Live. Jason Smith here alongside Michael Fabiano

835
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: and Elliot Harrison, and it's time now to give you

836
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 1: all our big starts of the week. So let's begin

837
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: with the quarterback position in fabs. You really like Josh

838
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,319
Speaker 1: McCown this week, or really whoever plays quarterbacks to the Bears. Yeah,

839
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 1: that's that's the key right there. McCown right now, he's

840
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,799
Speaker 1: been the starter. Jake Cutler will see what happens in

841
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: practice this week. They should start getting back on the

842
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 1: practice field. Remember on Thursday, potentially Color will be there.

843
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,960
Speaker 1: If Color starts pick up Color, he still build him

844
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 1: eight percent of leagues on NFL dot Com. If mccount

845
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: starts play him against the Cowboys, they have been one

846
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 1: of the worst d This is the entire National Football League,

847
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 1: especially against the past. Alright, someone I've been seeing getting

848
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: picked up a lot in plenty of leagues, Elliott is

849
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco. You know, with Joe Flacco's matchup is GRAD,

850
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 1: He's playing the Vikings and the Vikings and then the

851
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,280
Speaker 1: thirty ranked past defensive league. I would not normally recommend

852
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 1: starting Joe Flacco. He doesn't have the weapons. He's usually

853
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 1: hit or missed. But they have not been able to

854
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 1: lean on their running game, which means it's gonna be

855
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:22,919
Speaker 1: on his right arm whether or not they win this game.

856
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,439
Speaker 1: They need it very badly for the ANC wild card,

857
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 1: that six C that they're fighting for right now. Jason

858
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,239
Speaker 1: and the Vikings are very exploitable on the back end.

859
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you Ryan Fitzpatrick for this week. This

860
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: is where a guy who's been red hot plays a

861
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 1: defense that's not alright. Fitzpatrick has over fifteen fantasy points

862
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 1: in each of the last four games. He runs for

863
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 1: touchdowns as well, so that gives you a lot of

864
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,680
Speaker 1: points there you don't get from other quarterbacks. And the

865
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: last month, Denver's defense averaging over twenty fantasy points per game.

866
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 1: To quarterbacks, if you need a guy, I need a

867
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 1: guy in my league, I'm sitting Andrew Luck. I'm going

868
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 1: with Ryan Fitzpatrick. How about this first stat? Okay, In

869
00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: the last four weeks, Peyton Manning's the highest scoring fantasy quarterback.

870
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 1: Kim Newton is number two. Ryan Fitzpatrick is three. He's

871
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 1: been very good. It's magic because I thought it was

872
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: I Rob Roll with the Amish rifle in my playoffs.

873
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 1: Why not in my league of record? Hit the running

874
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: backs now? And people have questions about Eddie Links and

875
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,879
Speaker 1: coming off for last week, but not this week. If

876
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,279
Speaker 1: this is a tougher matchup, maybe I'd have question marks too.

877
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,840
Speaker 1: But he's the featured back in an offense that's facing

878
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons. They've given up the second most fantasy

879
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 1: points to running backs over the last four weeks, including

880
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,760
Speaker 1: an absolute boatload to Fred Jackson and C. J. Spiller.

881
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: I am starting a Delica and I am starting him

882
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 1: with confidence. DeMarco Murle Elliott, are you starting him and

883
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 1: starting him with confidence? Absolutely? I hate to see my

884
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 1: former University of North Texas alum Lance Dunbar go on,

885
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 1: I r be hurt out to the season like he is.

886
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 1: But DeMarco Murray that means it's his baby and he's

887
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 1: going up against the thirty second ranked run defense in

888
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 1: the NFL. Jason, how many teams are there in the

889
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 1: Nflty two? That's right? The Bears are giving up a

890
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,840
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards. A hundred and fifty This is

891
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 1: the definition matchup if you're looking for a flection. Need

892
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 1: to running back Bobby Rainey. This is another potential breakout

893
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: week from He's averaging over five yards per carry at

894
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 1: home Buffalo the last month. Look at the trends the

895
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 1: last month of the seasons. What we look at now

896
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 1: going to the playoffs, they're averaging giving up over twenty

897
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 1: four Fantasy points a game to running backs. Rainy's a guy.

898
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 1: I'm fab I'm looking at Rainy over c J. Spiller

899
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,399
Speaker 1: in one of my leaks. That is a very very

900
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 1: big conund gion for you, my friend and the experts league.

901
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: Spiller bad matchup, Rainy, good matchups. Spiller coming off a

902
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:28,840
Speaker 1: very good week. Rainy not so much. I'm gonna be

903
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: interested to see who you start. I just because I

904
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: just know C. J. Spiller coming off this big week.

905
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:34,719
Speaker 1: He's gonna be awfull. I'm gonna look at like three

906
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 1: point one fantasy points one. I'm gonna be sitting next

907
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: to on Sunday Wire all upset about it, and I'll

908
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 1: hit you over the head of the television. I will

909
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 1: do that, all right. We get to wide receivers. Yeah,

910
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,720
Speaker 1: the wide receiver starts of the week now. Vincent Jackson

911
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 1: is someone fab to Mike Glennon has been up and down.

912
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 1: If you're not believing in a big bounce back game

913
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 1: from Mike Glennon, can you believe in one for Jackson?

914
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: I like Vincent Jackson. I know that he hasn't been

915
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 1: that good over the last four or five weeks, but

916
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,040
Speaker 1: this is a very good matchup against the Bills have

917
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 1: given up the second most fantasy points and wide receivers

918
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 1: this season. Six team receiving touchdowns allowed to whine outs.

919
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,479
Speaker 1: That's tied for the second most in the National Football League.

920
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 1: V Jackson is a little banged up, so make sure

921
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:12,279
Speaker 1: you check on the status. But if he's active, and

922
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:15,040
Speaker 1: I think he will, I would play Vincent Jackson. You're

923
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 1: gonna hit me over the head with a television. Well,

924
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: the television they're lighter now because they're flat screens. Smith,

925
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 1: let's talk about Kendle right, can we we can? I'll

926
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 1: tell you what his matchups against the Broncos. You guys

927
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 1: already talked about fits magic. The Broncos secondary has been

928
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 1: letting receivers run around like kids in the public swimming pool. Man,

929
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,359
Speaker 1: I'm taking kindle right. Kendall Right over the last month's

930
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 1: been averaging about ten targets per game. He's the most

931
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: reliable receiver and that Titans offense. Hey, these are not

932
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:41,879
Speaker 1: our best start of the week. We're not picking out

933
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,400
Speaker 1: stars here. These are spots, starts, guys that you can

934
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,279
Speaker 1: put in your lineup and help you win a playoff game.

935
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:48,279
Speaker 1: I think Kendle Wright is a very definition of that.

936
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 1: So Denver's DBS, instead of covering guys, are just saying

937
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: no running no running, no running, no running, and guys

938
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 1: are going by them exactly. Mike Wallace. This is a

939
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 1: really tough decision because he's someone who you drafted earlier

940
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 1: this year. You thought he might come through. Then he

941
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: was awful for most of the season. But now he's

942
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 1: gotten hot. He's playing his old team in Pittsburgh. He

943
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: talked about being on a star receiver. Everybody knows it.

944
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 1: He's tough to trust. Fabs. He's one of those guys

945
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 1: that's right on the cusp of is he a flexes

946
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: He at three he can easily not be You know

947
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: why he's good because he complained. But still, if you're

948
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 1: looking for somebody this week wide receiver, you need a

949
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 1: wide receiver three. Mike Wallace is someone you can put

950
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 1: him in your lineup with, at least knowing that he's

951
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: been hot a little bit. I don't love Mike Wallace,

952
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 1: but I like him if I don't have a lot

953
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,879
Speaker 1: of alternatives. Antonio Gates Elliott, he's been a big sit

954
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. You like him? Yeah, I

955
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,880
Speaker 1: like him. And when I said that to Fabs, Fabs

956
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:39,719
Speaker 1: looked at me like he just say some expired meat

957
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 1: load or something. I mean, I get it. You don't

958
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 1: like Antonio Gates this week. I know, I understand, but

959
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:47,399
Speaker 1: he's playing the Giants and for some reason at home,

960
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers likes to go to Gates more. The Giants

961
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,839
Speaker 1: have given up the ninth most fantasy points to tight end.

962
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,799
Speaker 1: Go ahead and play him with confidence in overall, he's

963
00:44:55,800 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: had a good season, Expired meat load, Alright, Bev's other

964
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,280
Speaker 1: side of the coin. You got Brandon Meyers, who finally

965
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: has been flashing the potential that we thought he'd have

966
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: earlier this season. The stomach ache just thinking about that.

967
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 1: Brandon Meyers over the last two weeks has been extremely good,

968
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: double digit Fantasy points in two straight games. He's finding

969
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 1: the end zone. Hey, if you need a tight end,

970
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 1: and a lot of people out there do. Brandon Meyers

971
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 1: has been back in the good graces of Eli Manning

972
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: and this is a good matchup against San Diego. Charge

973
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:27,320
Speaker 1: Expired was about to say, I think he just finally

974
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: found Eli Manning. The dude was OCD for like the

975
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: first ten weeks the year. Brandon Meyers, is it the

976
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,359
Speaker 1: point now where he's the past catcher? You trust him

977
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 1: the Giants the most? Is that a joke or what.

978
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: Keen Nicks has scored a touchdown. Victor Cruz can't do anything.

979
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:43,040
Speaker 1: Rubert Raydal is downhill lately in the statutes. It's been

980
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 1: a rough season for the tur back line O Manual.

981
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 1: It's it's been a season of expired meat loaf for

982
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 1: the New York Giants. Alright, that's fantasy. Join us tomorrow
