24
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: owners who midway through the game last nights, I just

25
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: want to make sure I'm not going against Peyton. Check

26
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: and see if I get that. That was your guys. Well,

27
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: speaking of Peyton Manning, he had the very historical night

28
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 1: and night ago. I get your caught up on exactly

29
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: what happened during the action. In case you missed it,

30
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: Ray Lewis might have been right. You know, the Niners

31
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: controlled stuff during the Super Bowl. They controlled the weather

32
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: tonight against the Ravens, trying to get some revenge, Joe

33
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: Flacco and Peyton Manning going at a mile high. First quarter,

34
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: Ravens had the first in goal. Joe Flacco fakes the

35
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: handoff and passes the Vante Leech. Let's say fullbacks can't

36
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: catch the new yard touchdown. Ravens up early seven nothing.

37
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: Second quarter Broncos looking at even it up. Hayton hits

38
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: to Mary's top. No, it's Julius Thomas for the twenty

39
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: four yard done. Dr Jay that ties things at seven apiece. Hey,

40
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: props to Adam Rank. He had Julius Thomas list. They

41
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: did a sleeper's column, though no one was brave enough

42
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 1: to start him. Eight minutes left to the second, Ravens

43
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: with first in gold. There's ray Rice clocks outside. This

44
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: is why drafted to in the first round. Ravens lead

45
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: fourteen seven. Next Broncos possession. Now it's time for to

46
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 1: Mary's time. No, it's Julius Thomas again for the touchdowns

47
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 1: things and fourteen a piece. Third quarter of Broncos trailing

48
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: by three. Manny looking for Andre Calbwell, where is Eric Decker?

49
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: Twenty eight yard touchdown, Broncos leading twenty one seven chain,

50
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: one more headache, one more guy for Theayton manager fasting value. Well,

51
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: apparently her Decker has not last night. Ensuing Bronco's possession,

52
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: second and goal. Man him looking for Wes Welker. There's

53
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: the ankle breaking move in the end zone. Seventeen Broncos.

54
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: The uniform may be different, He's not in New England anymore.

55
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: Everything else looks the same. Yes, someone was Belichick's fault

56
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: right with this one with more welcome in the that's welcome,

57
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 1: and yeah, maybe you want to cover him at some point.

58
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: Bronco's not a big thirty five seventeen early fourth quarter.

59
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: Now to marry as Thomas gets in on things for

60
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: the twenty six yards totally seven seen a baby Bay

61
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: Bay by one minute later Raven's fourth and one from

62
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: their own twenty nine. If you had the Broncos defense,

63
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: you're going, yeah, go Dave Trevathan. This is gonna be

64
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: a no don't to Sean Jackson as a defensive player's dream.

65
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: Hayton Manning and Jack del Rio not happy, along with

66
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: other fantasy owners. So after a Raven's touchdown, Bronco's answer,

67
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: here's Manning to to marry as Thomas. This is what

68
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: akbar looks like when the buffet comes out. Well along

69
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: to me. If I'm that big and I could run

70
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: that fast, that's an impressive seventy in the yards for

71
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Seven Broncos. Joe Flacca says, yeah, I know

72
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: you did that, but I still have the Super Bowl ring. Yeah,

73
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: we'll say we'll see you later on in the game

74
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: the Big Time Chip. Here's your fantasy points board. Peyton

75
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: Manning and historic night nearly forty seven fantasy points. We'll

76
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: tell you where that ranks all time as far as

77
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: fan single handedly fantasy performs his go Coming up later

78
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: on in the show, you had a big knight Frommarius Thomas,

79
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: big knight from Julius Thomas, big night from West Welker.

80
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: I recall gets in on it, and I say, again,

81
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: where's Eric Decker. How many people are saying right now,

82
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: I gotta train Eric Decker. Yeah, and I got called

83
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: right now. I gotta trade right now Eric Decker. Look,

84
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: I'll give you. I'll even throw in er before. Don't panic.

85
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: It's only week one, but Eric Decker certainly could see

86
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: his value. Plumbert. We'll get to that why in a

87
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: couple of seconds. But first, Peyton Manning was phenomenal last night.

88
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: Not seven we didn't think it would be seven touchdowns. Good,

89
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: But there's a reason this guy was one of the

90
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 1: top four top five quarterbacks off the board. Dot Bar.

91
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: You know he has a lot of options. I mean

92
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: you really saw that. I mean you saw now that

93
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: he has Julius Thomas. He's got Eric Decker, like you said,

94
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: he's got to Mary's Thomas. I think that when you

95
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: look at Peyton Manning and the offense that he has,

96
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 1: he's got just vertical weapons at his disposa and four

97
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: quarterback that makes comfort. And these guys seem to be

98
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: in time. And because he want to make sure, how

99
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: could I forget Wes Welker, How could I forget what

100
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: wasn't work? The newest member of the for Broncos. I

101
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: mean this guy. These guys are gonna be elite all

102
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: year long. In fact, I'm saying that you can pick

103
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: any of the wide receiver uh and put him on

104
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: your fantasy team. All right, how about the tight end now,

105
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: because now we have a new guy in the mixing,

106
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: Julius Thomas. He's gonna be a very popular pick up

107
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: this week. And look, you're playing let it you're tight

108
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: end position anyway, if you don't have one of the stars,

109
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: if you need a POSI, why not because you're gonna

110
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: change your tight end two or three times over the

111
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: season anyway. So yeah, go pick up Julius Thomas this week.

112
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: I know there's a fear that he might be the

113
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: new Kevin Ogletree. We remember him, had the big breakout

114
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,239
Speaker 1: game with the Cowboys. I think the difference is Hayton

115
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: Manning likes to use the tight end. He's not gonna

116
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: be a superstar. We're not gonna confuse him with Tony

117
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: Gonzalaz and Rob Gronkowski. But Julius Thomas, I think we'll

118
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 1: have some value all your long, All right to Marius

119
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: Thomas also got in on things late, but it doesn't matter.

120
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: You get fantasy points whenever you get him. It was

121
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: in second half, but still a hundred sixteen when you

122
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: are to two touchdowns. If you have questions about Wecker

123
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 1: and Delker, the one thing we know is to Marius

124
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: Thomas is still the guy that's gonna catch the deep passes.

125
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: He's still gonna be the player he wasn't here. What

126
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: I always like to say is garbage points still count,

127
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: and fantasy doesn't matter to Marius Thomas. But at the

128
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: kind of numbers you expected out of a guy you

129
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: drafted as your number one wide receiver. Doesn't matter that

130
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 1: they came late when the game was pretty much already

131
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: to decide it. All you care about it that those

132
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: points don't go on the board. Yeah, I don't call

133
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: that garbage point. I call that domination point. Because he

134
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: dominant those guys. Michael Hoff and company just could not

135
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 1: catch up with him. The big debate all preseason long

136
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: was whose value is gonna take? It is gonna be

137
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: West Welker, Is it gonna be Eric Decker. We fought

138
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: all week long. Welker is the guy. Decker is the

139
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: number three guy. Maybe it's not going to be to

140
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: the extent it was on Thursday night, but still if

141
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: it's game one with West Welker and this is what

142
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 1: Manny does using him all game long, Remember he missed

143
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: him on a wide open touchdown, it could have been

144
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: a seventy yard or you can expect that normal production

145
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 1: out of West Welker for this year. You're gonna always

146
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: expect that because West Welkers is going to be the

147
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 1: guy sitting in the middle. They're gonna get a lot

148
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 1: of pressure up the field. Peyton Man is always gonna

149
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: be looking for West Welker and Eric Decker. Maybe he's

150
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: a flex, maybe not for you. Gotta keep an eye

151
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: on that. But let's take a look at the Ravens

152
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: fantasy leaders. Joe Flacco through the ball a hundred and

153
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: sixty seven times last night, still couldn't crack the twenty

154
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 1: point value for fantasy. Ray Rice just over thirteen, Marlon

155
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: Brown over twelve points, Tory Smith notty two yards receiving

156
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 1: but didn't get in the end zone. Dallas Clark gave

157
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: you an okay night for tight end, and time you

158
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: get more than six points for tight end, that's a

159
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: pretty good night. Now as far as Joe Flacco goes

160
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: not quite twenty points, people are gonna look at Flacco

161
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: and say, through for over fifty yards, had a couple

162
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: of touchdowns. Is Joe Flacco suddenly worthy of starting now

163
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 1: seeing how he started off this season where he left

164
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: off last year? I don't think so. I mean, I

165
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: think he's a guy who had the great postseason last year,

166
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of people may read too

167
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: much into that. He's a guy who, when it comes

168
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: to fantasy perspective, just doesn't really give you a whole

169
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: lot of production. I mean, he threw the ball sixty

170
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: two times, as you mentioned, didn't crack the twenty point barrier.

171
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna get a lot of that with

172
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco. He can't get too excited about what you

173
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: saw from him in the playoffs last year. He's just

174
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: a mediocre fantasy quarterback. And you know we can see

175
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: this year. He used to be Hey, twenty points is

176
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: a great day for a quarterback. It could be twenty

177
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: points is a mediocre day. You know we got twelve

178
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: thirteen great signal callers after Suthly Twine. I could do

179
00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: better than twenty points. Yeah, he's definitely gonna be a

180
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: quarterback you're gonna putting your bench, But I'm not starting him.

181
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: He's not. He's a guy that I'm gonna looks a

182
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: spot start. But I do like Joe Flackle because he

183
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: has a good arm, He's got good receivers to throw to.

184
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: How about Tory Smith, even though it wasn't a great

185
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: night for him, still giving nearly a hundred yards. He

186
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: didn't give you nearly a hundred yards, But from what

187
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: I saw from him for most of the night, didn't

188
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,679
Speaker 1: reassure me in his ability to be a number one receiver.

189
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: He's a big play guy. He's a guy who can

190
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: stretch the field. But when you're talking about a number

191
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: one receiver, you want that guy who can run all

192
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: the rounds who can make catches in every situation, And

193
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: I'm just not sure that he's that guy right now.

194
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna chop it up to being the

195
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: first week of the season. But I believe in Tori Smith.

196
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: I think Tory Smith can be productive. Yeah, he's a

197
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: good number two fantasy wide receiver right now. And ray

198
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: Rice last night didn't have a great night, but still

199
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: nearly gave you a fifteen fantasy point. Yeah. You know,

200
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: I was very surprised at the play calling there by

201
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: Jim Caldwell not to give ray Rice the ball more

202
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 1: out of the backfield, allow him to run and keep that.

203
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: You know, I saw the safety is being able to

204
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: cheat up. But I think ray Rice is such a

205
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: dominant runner that you've got to give him the ball

206
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: more than twelve times. Yes, you threw it to him

207
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: eight times, but ray Rice is a eight time runner.

208
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 1: You gotta give him the ball now. Awkward. How much

209
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: of this is We see this in the NFL a

210
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: lot Because you see one team throwing the football down

211
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: the field, that panic and Susan, we can't run the football,

212
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: we have to throw it to get back in this game,

213
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: hence the sixty passes by Flacco. Well, let me say this,

214
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: I think when you look at the way the defense

215
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: are playing against Joe Flacco, he's gonna be able to

216
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,559
Speaker 1: throw the ball. He's gonna be able to get his

217
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: guys deep. And that also helps with ray Rice and

218
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 1: his ability to run because those safeties are cheating back.

219
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 1: So you've got to be able to give the ball

220
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: to ray Rice so he can run and keep defenses honest.

221
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: All right, So there's a Thursday night football recap again. Congratulations,

222
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: money time. Now let's send it over to Michael Fabiano

223
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: and Adam Rich. We're standing by with the latest fantasy

224
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 1: headlines for Friday from around the league. That's right, Jason,

225
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: As we take a look at Friday's fantasy headlines, and

226
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: my Bradshaw's returned to practice this week. He is expected

227
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: to play in Week one against the Oakland Raiders. EJ.

228
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: Manuel expected to start Week one against New England Patriots.

229
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 1: That means the Jeff Tool era will have to wait

230
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: for at least I pitted the tool The producer maybe

231
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: say that Santonio Holmes expected to play in a Week one,

232
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: but that'll be up to the doctors. And trainers. We'll

233
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: find out more about that later. But Mike, let's go

234
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,319
Speaker 1: back to a mad brat Shaw. Not a lot of

235
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,199
Speaker 1: RB one's available in most leagues. Can you trust this guy?

236
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 1: I like to match up at him against the Raiders.

237
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,719
Speaker 1: They've traditionally been really bad against the run. And you

238
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: probably drafted bratch On to be your three, and I

239
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: think that's his limit this week. He's a flex starter

240
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: and no more. I really like him as a flex

241
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: option there. But Santonio Holmes, Now let's go to the receivers.

242
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 1: I say, there's probably a lot of other options. You

243
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: could go with, somebody like Kenbrell Tompkins or pretty much anybody.

244
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 1: What do you say, what team does he play for?

245
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: The Jet? I'm avoiding any Jet not named Chris Ivery.

246
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: And even he has me a little bit worried at

247
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 1: this point. Santonio Holmes is not someone that you want

248
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: to run out and pick up. You know what, See

249
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: what he does this weekend? Overall, Santonio Holmes best fantasy value.

250
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 1: It's in the rear view mirror. Alright, let's take a look. Now,

251
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: it's some of the latest fantasy injury reports for a Friday.

252
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's coming up. I'm expecting some big injury

253
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,599
Speaker 1: news we'll be talking about. You know, there's always a

254
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 1: lot of guys that you see. It's Friday's very nervous

255
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: time for fantasy because you look, you see guys like

256
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: Victor Cruz. He'll injury, but he's probable. He's probably gonna

257
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: play against the Dallas Cowboys JPP though you see their

258
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: back injury. He's questionable. That could be good for the

259
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: Cowboys offense because that could give Tony Romo a little

260
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,599
Speaker 1: bit of time to throw it down about that. And

261
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 1: you know the Cowboys have a questionable offensive line, so

262
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,199
Speaker 1: anything helps, anything helps. Now, one guy who is not

263
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 1: onmous list, and it's kind of a surprise, where's Danny Amendl,

264
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: because we heard earlier this week he was fighting a

265
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: groin injury. But it seems like he's gonna be able

266
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: to play. It does seem like he's gonna play. Obviously,

267
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: go to NFL dot com and check the inactives report

268
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: on Sunday. But I'd be shocked if he doesn't play,

269
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: and I'd be shocked if he didn't put up a

270
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: very good performance, maybe to make up for the fact

271
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: that Wes Welker had that big game on Thursday night.

272
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,839
Speaker 1: Amadola wants to show, hey, you know what, you're not

273
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,439
Speaker 1: missing anything without Welker in this past attack. It seems

274
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: like it's gonna be a little bit personal between those guys.

275
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: To Ye and Tom Brady and Peyton Manning going back

276
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,079
Speaker 1: and fourth year in year out. I like him. Roddy White,

277
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: he's on the injury list too. He's got an ankle injury.

278
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: He's questionable. Are you concerned? I'm not. You know, he

279
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 1: missed a lot of the preseason, but he's a veteran.

280
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: Isn't need that time to practice in training camp. Roddy

281
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: White against the Saints, Adam, this could be one of

282
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: those games where it's thirty thirty. You're starting your Atlanta Falcons,

283
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: You're starting your New Orleans Saints, and that includes Mr White.

284
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: It seems like this Falcons and Saints game could be

285
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 1: a kind of game scoring wise that could put that

286
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: Broncos and Ravens game to shame, because these guys are

287
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: gonna be scoring a lot of points. And I like

288
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: all of that, and I say, I say start him

289
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 1: all start now. When NFL Fantasy Live returns, some Electric

290
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 1: Week one games are on the schedule for Sunday, but

291
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: only one can be our fantasy matchup of the week.

292
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: Find out which game it is next, San Francisco for

293
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: the NFC Divisional Playoffs, as the Green Bay Packers take

294
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 1: on the San Francisco forty Niners. Ka Nick for the touchdown.

295
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 1: Rogers gets it. There's a path right down the middle.

296
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: Caught at Pride touchdown. Kaefernick just broke book back of

297
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,839
Speaker 1: the green Bay defense forty nine little victory over the

298
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: green Bay Packers. Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live. Let's

299
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: take a look at the Week one Sunday line up

300
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: here some of the early games. Patriots and the Bills

301
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: kick things off at one o'clock. Again for the Bills,

302
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: unless the guy's name begins with an essent lands with killer,

303
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: you're not really playing any Buffalo Bills. Chiefs and Jaguars.

304
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 1: Get a good look at that Jaguars offense if they

305
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 1: can retol themselves a little bit from m j D

306
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 1: back into a fantasy superstar. Here's your late games. Yes,

307
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 1: you're not playing any New York Jets, not one, not

308
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 1: at all, not ever, at least not this week. Eagles

309
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,839
Speaker 1: Redskins Texans Chargers are the Monday night games. Remember a

310
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: double header on Monday Night with those two games, So

311
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: which one of those games is our fantasy game of

312
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: the week. Only one can be the matchup band of course,

313
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: as you probably guess by now, it is the Green

314
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,719
Speaker 1: Bay Packers and the San Francisco forty nine is a

315
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 1: rematch of a visional playoff matchup between the Niners and

316
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: the Packers. Let's start things off with the road team.

317
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: Bar Aaron Rodgers clear number one fantasy quarterback, but against

318
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: that vaunted forty Niners defense? Are you nervous at all?

319
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: You know what? I'm not nervous. I like Aaron Rodgers.

320
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:13,839
Speaker 1: I think Aaron Rodgers is gonna continue to do more

321
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 1: of the same thing. He's got Jordy Nelson, He's got

322
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: Randall cop They're healthy, and of course James Jones. I

323
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: think James Jones is gonna be big for him. But

324
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: more importantly, they have a run game now that they

325
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: can support their passing game, and Aaron Rodgers gonna go

326
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: out there and I predict he's probably gonna go out

327
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: there and have about twenty points. Now, if there's one

328
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: area of concern, I do have for Aaron Rodgers. That

329
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: is his left tackle. He's gotten David Baktari now protecting

330
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: him on that back side. That means he's got to

331
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: go up against Olden Smith. I don't know that I'm

332
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 1: gonna bet on that to be in the favor for

333
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers. So I'm concerned in that area.

334
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: But I think Aaron Rodgers, probably because of that, will

335
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: throw two interceptions, but he's still gonna go out and

336
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: have a big game. Not still points, is still a

337
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: huge night. Now he mentioned Eddie Lacy, Marcus, you hide

338
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: him for this one, not this week. Normally, I think

339
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: Eddie Lacey is gonna be a good player. I think

340
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: he's a guy who has a good future ahead of him,

341
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: especially from a fantasy perspective. I know the Packers are

342
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 1: leaning on him a lot, but look, you know how

343
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: your mom told you to be nice to guests. The

344
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 1: Niners defense didn't get that no home training for the

345
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 1: Niners defense, and so you might have drafted Eddie Lacey

346
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: as your number three, possibly your number two running back.

347
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: In that case, you probably got to play him this week,

348
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: but expect lower numbers from Eddie Lazy. I just don't

349
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: like this matchup for him. If I had a dollar

350
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: for every time this week we said we like Eddie Lazy,

351
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: but not this week I have. How about Jordy Nelson? Right?

352
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: What do you think I am not starting Jordy Nelson.

353
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: As tough as the forty Niners are against visiting running backs,

354
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: they're also just as tough against visiting receivers. Are forty

355
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: Niners allowed the third fewest points the visiting receivers last season.

356
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: So when it comes to a guy like Jordy Nelson,

357
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave him on the bench. He's got to

358
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: still prove himself a little bit. Randall Cobb is a

359
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 1: guy that I would put it in the lineup. Jordy Nelson,

360
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: you gotta show me a little bit more. You had

361
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: one great season. Now you're playing the forty Niners. You're

362
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: sitting on the bench. How about James Jones? Far you

363
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: like James Jones? You like James Jones this week? And

364
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: all forty Niners don't up a lot of receiving touchdowns.

365
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: They've given up a receiving touchdown or less, and ten

366
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: of their last thirteen home games, that's all James Jones does.

367
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: So you're banking on him getting a touchdown, which I

368
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: don't think he's you know, I disagree. I actually think

369
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: that James Jones will get a touchdown. When I look

370
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: at the forty Niners defense, I look at the defensive line,

371
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: they're solid. I look at the linebacker, they're solid. The

372
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: weaknesses in that secondary group, of course, they lost Goldston,

373
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: so I really do believe that if there's gonna be

374
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: a weakness that've got Eric Read there as a safety

375
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: who's a rookie and he's going up against James Jones,

376
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: you can bet there's gonna be a mental area there.

377
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: So James Jones will get at least a touchdown for you,

378
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: all right. Forty nine side of things, We start with

379
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: a quarterback, Colin Kaepernick, who was everybody's darling last year.

380
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: I didn't think I'd be this nervous for Colin Kaepernick,

381
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: but after going through an off season no Michael Crabtree,

382
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: who became his security blanket, teams have had a lot

383
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 1: of time to look and see what he does well

384
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: to try to shut him down. He wasn't drafted with

385
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: a very high pedigree. He makes me almost like Russell Wilson.

386
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: I feel a little bit nervous about Colin Kaepernick. But

387
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: right here on the other side of this, Jason, let

388
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: me leave your fears for you. He was drafted at

389
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: a hype head. Agree he's a second round draft pick,

390
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: which means the forty Niners were counting on him to

391
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: be a big time quarterback for them. And also, these

392
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 1: guys can watch tape of him all they want. They'll

393
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: watch tape and be like, dude, we don't have anybody

394
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: as fast as this guy. He's amazing. He's He's even

395
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 1: faster this year. He's been working out with Olympian sprinters.

396
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: The big thing about Colin Kaepernick, especially in leagues where

397
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 1: you get four points for touchdown passes, the thing that

398
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: separates him from other quarterbacks is that rushing ability. And

399
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: he will be able to run against the Packers. He

400
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 1: did it last year. I mean, the Packers probably watched

401
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: a lot of tapers like, yeah, Clay Matthews isn't close.

402
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: You can, you can try to hand him, but you

403
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: gotta catch him first. The Packers proved they couldn't do it.

404
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: And I like your point about the second round because

405
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: that makes me think Geno Smith will be very good

406
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Let's get to the Frank Core. What do

407
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: you think about him this week? Well, you know, I

408
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 1: think Frank Gore is going to have a successful get

409
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: And here's why, because when you look at the way

410
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers for the game planning for this game,

411
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 1: they've barked us for a long time. You know, Dom

412
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: Caper said that are gonna take away that read option

413
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 1: for from Colin Kaepernick. They are so afraid of Colin

414
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 1: Kaepernick that Frank Gore is going to have a big

415
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: game against this Green Bay Packers. In fact, I'm gonna

416
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: say he's gonna already have two touchdowns and over a

417
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: hundred yards against the Green Bay Packers. All right, how

418
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: about an Kohan Bolden. They brought him into hopefully compliment

419
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 1: Michael Krabtry, and now he's the guy. You know, we

420
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: talk so much about guys who are really good players

421
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 1: on the field, but not necessarily in fantasy. We talked

422
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: about it a lot with quarterbacks, and Koran Bolden is

423
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 1: that guy from a receiver standpoint. He's a guy who

424
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: can move the chains. He's a guy that you really

425
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 1: want on that field if you're Colin Kaepernick or the

426
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: forty Niners. He's not a guy you really want in fantasy.

427
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: He hasn't really been a fantasy contributor at least they

428
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: are on a big level for a while now, certainly

429
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: not after he left Arizona and went to the Baltimore Ravens.

430
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 1: I don't expect it to happen here. I think Burnon

431
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: Davis really becomes the play. He's the top target in

432
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 1: that offense right now. An Kin Bolden is a guy

433
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: kind of wants to have to be weary of. Yeah,

434
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 1: at the best, he's been pedestrian as far as fantasy goes.

435
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: And here's our fantasy projections powered by E. A. Madden.

436
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 1: Madden not as high on Aaron Rodgers as akbar is.

437
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: They reject Eddie Lacy to have thirteen points. If you

438
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 1: get thirteen points out of any Lacey against the Niners defense, hey,

439
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: that's phenomenous. Big twenty two for Colin Kaepernick, seventeen for

440
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: Frank Gore the Niners defense, fifteen fantasy points. I'm thinking

441
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 1: to pick six for one of those guys. Yeah, absolutely,

442
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,919
Speaker 1: it's gonna be and that probably gonna be Nambias More.

443
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: How about that touchdown reception, And that's all one, All right.

444
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,600

00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: score and give me the fantasy guy you're keeping an

458
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 1: eye on. Well, I've got the Atlanta Falcons winning this

459
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: onety one, and the matchup I'm watching for is Roddy White.

460
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I now know Roddy White is questionable, but

461
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: if he's in the game, I'm telling you Roddy White

462
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: is going to explode in this game. And here's why.

463
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 1: Robert Wyant's defense who I was a part of with

464
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders. I know he's gonna be focused on

465
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: taking the big play away from who Julio Jones. They're

466
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: gonna try to get up there and try to stop

467
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 1: seven Jackson from getting off. He's probably gonna bank on

468
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 1: the fact that Roddy White is gonna be the other receiver.

469
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be a big mistake and Roddy

470
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 1: White is gonna catch up and he's gonna be big

471
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 1: in this game. All right, Marcus Arizona and St. Louis

472
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: two the more underrated fantasy defenses in the NFL. What's

473
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 1: what's Who's gonna win and who stands out? I like

474
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 1: the rams of this one a close, kind of low

475
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: scoring affair. I thinks St. Louis pulls out of seventeen

476
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: thirteen win this one. But the guy I'm really keeping

477
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: an eye on is Tavon Austin. This is a guy

478
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 1: that a lot of people were big on coming into

479
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: the preseason. There's a lot of talk about what he

480
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: can do. He can do so many things with a

481
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 1: football in his hands, but the problem is we don't

482
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 1: know exactly what he's gonna do with the football in

483
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: his hands, mostly because them haven't figured out how they

484
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 1: want to use him. The one thing that worries me

485
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 1: is that St. Louis said they want to spread the

486
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: ball around. Chris Gibbons is gonna see a lot of targets.

487
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: He was the leading target. He's the guy with the

488
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 1: most targets coming back from last year's team. So you

489
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 1: don't know how that's gonna affect Tavon Austin. But keep

490
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 1: an eye on him this week because we'll get a

491
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: better idea of what he can do with the football

492
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: where he's gonna line up. We know he's a guy

493
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: who can return punts, who can return kicks, but in

494
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 1: terms of fantasy there's just too many unknowns right now. Yes,

495
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 1: dam with Austin, one of those three agents that you

496
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 1: want to keep an eye on after this week may

497
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 1: wind up going after absolutely. And now I know there's

498
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 1: another game coming up later this week on Sunday that

499
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 1: that that you really like. Yeah, Cowboys and the Giants. Look,

500
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: if you're in any dire straits for a quarterback, wise

501
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: go with the Cowboys and pick up Tony Romo. I

502
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 1: like the Cowboys to win this game. Seventeen more importantly,

503
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: Tony Romo is someone who has diced the Giants up

504
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 1: in the last couple of years. Take a look at

505
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: what he's averaging against New York Giants since two thousand

506
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: eleven over thy eight passing yards game, nearly twenty two

507
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 1: fantasy points, eleven total touchdowns. I'll deal with the seven turnovers,

508
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: all right, give me the minus on I'll take the

509
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 1: turnovers if he's gonna throw for nearly three forty. But

510
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: if you have a question at quarterback, because Romo was

511
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: either for at a few as a late number one

512
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 1: or a high number two, this is the week to

513
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,640
Speaker 1: play him because you want to play the matchups when

514
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: it comes to quarterbacks, and especially when Romo, who was

515
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: shown this in the past what he does to the Giants.

516
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 1: I like turn a Romo a lot. This week we should,

517
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: and I got in in our experts league. I'm gonna

518
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: start him. I'm really excited about what he can do heat.

519
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: A lot of times people look at Tony Romo and

520
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: they cannot separate fantasy from reality. They make jokes he

521
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: doesn't win in the playoffs. You know where he wins

522
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 1: the fantasy playoffs. So the end of his career he'll

523
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: hold up Fantasy look at all these I'm a winner.

524
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 1: Him and I can hang out and I'll toast him.

525
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 1: Fantasy Hall of Fames. Absolutely all right, Eagles and Redskins.

526
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 1: That's the Monday Night game seven ten Eastern Time with

527
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: Shawn McCoy, a player to keep an eye on, and

528
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: earlier this week he got up with her own Randy

529
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 1: Moss to talk about this matchup at Oregon. Chip Chilly

530
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: had a run first off. A lot of people in

531
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: Philadelphia been clamoring, we're more shady, more shady. How do

532
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 1: you feel about that? I'm excited. I'm definitely excited. You know,

533
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: the last couple of years, we haven't ran the ball.

534
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 1: I think enough. I think this year and coach Kelly

535
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: is going to bring that balance attack, you know, and

536
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: in the third and one third and tools, you know,

537
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna run first and only myself and

538
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: we got tons of backs and going and get it done.

539
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: So I think having that just that different effect of

540
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,920
Speaker 1: running the ball, keeping a team off balance, Um, I

541
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 1: think it would matter kind of that fourth quarter when

542
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: you need to lead, you need to win in the fantasy.

543
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: Guys are really excited about you in this offense. I

544
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: hope they picked me up your first round in every league.

545
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,159
Speaker 1: It was number two on my draft. How about the

546
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 1: shot that he took at Andy Read all right? Right?

547
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 1: So how do you see this? And and more on

548
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: Lashaw McCoy. I love Lashawn McCoy. You should pick him up.

549
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 1: You should do whatever you do with him. He should

550
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: be in your fantasy lineup. You heard what he said

551
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 1: about running the ball. If you go back to Chip

552
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: kellyot Oregon, he ran the ball sixty five percent of

553
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: the time they think of Oregon. Is this wide open,

554
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: throwing the ball all over the field offense. It really

555
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: was a run based offense. And Lashawn McCoy is going

556
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 1: to be the benefactor. I look back in his two

557
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: thousand eleven numbers when he had twenty touchdowns, when he

558
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: had all sorts of touches. He's gonna get that because

559
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 1: they're gonna play that up tempo. They want to speed

560
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: the game up. They want to get more people involved.

561
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: And not only is Lashawn McCoy a great start, Bryce

562
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: Brown is going to emerge as a flex option for

563
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,400
Speaker 1: you this season. There you go, big stuff from Adam

564
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: Rank and take a look. He picks a forty two

565
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: Eagles win. A recap on our projections here as well, Marcus,

566
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,359

00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: want to see you say, but they want to There

568
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: are plenty of big, high scoring games this week in

569
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: New Orleans, Atlanta one of them. You know we can.

570
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: We can deal with a low score all right now.

581
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 1: And maybe you do one or two fantasy leagues, or

582
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 1: maybe you're like us and you do seven or eight.

583
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 1: To tell you the depth of how far we go,

584
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Michael Fabiano does a sixteen team PPR backup,

585
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 1: fullback only league, and I think he's got Vante Leach.

586
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: But one thing you can learn from us is that

587
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: we have our favorites players. We try to draft as

588
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 1: many leagues as we can because we believe in their

589
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: success for the coming season. So right now we're gonna

590
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 1: talk about which players we have in the most leagues,

591
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 1: Guys we are all in on, which will tell you

592
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 1: who we really really expect and hope to see big

593
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 1: things from. So rank how many leagues you in? Seven?

594
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 1: And a lot of them are in the United States, Yes,

595
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: most of them. There's a few in Denmark. I got

596
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,439
Speaker 1: one in Australia and UK Tuesday Morning Football in the UK.

597
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 1: But yeah, all right, how many leagues you have? Steven

598
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,479
Speaker 1: Jackson pretty much all of them? And I didn't mean

599
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 1: to do it, but I drafted Steven Jackson because he's

600
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 1: gonna come out. He's gonna have a huge year le

601
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons. One of the things that differentiates him from

602
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 1: Michael Turner is that Stephen Jackson is a valuable weapon

603
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: out of the backfield as a receiver, So he's gonna

604
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 1: be able to have that dual threat. He's gonna get

605
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: double digit touchdowns, which he wasn't doing in St. Louis.

606
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 1: I look for him to have thirteen touchdowns. You got

607
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: him in the second round. He's gonna be very big

608
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: for you at Markus. How many leagues do you and

609
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: I am in six leagues, and how many do you

610
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: have Brandon Mark Brandon Marshall in four of those leagues.

611
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy like I've been on

612
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 1: this whole Mark Trustman as mad scientist thing. I know

613
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 1: that Brandon Marshall said last season his hip wasn't a

614
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 1: hundred percent and what did he do to put up

615
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: career numbers? No big deal. This year, he says, this

616
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 1: hip is even better. So a good hip plus a

617
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:49,959
Speaker 1: mad scientist coach who likes to throw the football all

618
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: over the lot. I don't love Brandon Marshall this year.

619
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm expecting really big things out of the guy. Now, you,

620
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: I know you have another wide receiver that you're looking at. Yeah,

621
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: I'm in I'm in seven leagues. I have Antonio Brown

622
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: in five of them. He's inheriting the number one job

623
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: fully away from Mike Wallace, who's in Miami. Now, look

624
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: at their stats over the last couple of years, Antonio Brown,

625
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace very interchangeable. He's clearly Ben Roethlisberger's guy. He

626
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,239
Speaker 1: had a very good preseason. And when you look at

627
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace and the hundred nineteen targets he had last year,

628
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 1: they have to go somewhere. They're not gonna go They're

629
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 1: not gonna go to Manuel Sanders. They're not gonna go

630
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: to Heath Miller. When he returns, Antonio Brown should crack

631
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,880
Speaker 1: the hundred reception barrier. He'll be a very strong number two.

632
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,159
Speaker 1: They'll give you a wide receiver number one production by

633
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 1: the time you get to the midway point of the season.

634
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 1: Now like bar how many, I'm in four And you

635
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: know what, I'm going after Michael Vick all the time

636
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: because I love Michael Vicken, believe in him. In this

637
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: chip Kelly's offense, when you look at the principal of

638
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: the chip Kelly's offense, it's all about spreading out the

639
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 1: team and being going with the high temple. Well that

640
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 1: thins out the defense and that's why running is so successful.

641
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: You know, Adam, you talked about sixty five percent at

642
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 1: the time, and at Oregon, Chip Kelly was running the

643
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 1: offense well guess what. Michael Vick is a running quarterback,

644
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: and we've known led to be true. Yes, he's got

645
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: an arm like you see here throwing into the Sean Jackon,

646
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 1: but he's a legitimate run threat. And that's why I

647
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 1: love him to be successful in this offense, because everybody's

648
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 1: gonna spread out and that middle is gonna be wide

649
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 1: open for him to lick you up. He's gonna lick

650
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: you up really well. Okay, now you probably drafted Michael

651
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: Vick as a backup quarterback, which is fine. There's another

652
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: backup getting some heat the last couple of days. Warren

653
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 1: sapp Our, resident Hall of Famer, thinks there's big things

654
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 1: in store for Miami's qub this season. Bryan Tannehill was

655
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 1: drafted by the Miami Dolphins to replace Dan Marino. And

656
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: what did he do in his rookie season broke Dan

657
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 1: Marino's rookie passing record. The second year won't be a

658
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 1: sophomore for Mr Ryan Tannehill. He will break Dan Marino's

659
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: wow record of five thousands break alright, So Tannehill, someone,

660
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 1: I haven't been one of my league's as a backup quarterback.

661
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: Are you on? Tan Hill? But he could be one

662
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 1: of those blossoming number two's. I don't like his offensive lines,

663
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 1: so I'm not really up on Ryan Tannehill. I will say,

664
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: Brandon Weed now scores this guy this year. He'll lick

665
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 1: it up. Yes, he's gonna be He's gonna be a

666
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: he's gonna animalize Tannehill. Very nice. I'm not buying it,

667
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: not buying it. I'm not buying it. You know. I

668
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 1: played with Sap. I love Sap, but I just I

669
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: can't follow him on this one. I mean, he's a

670
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,479
Speaker 1: guy that I'm just gonna sit there and let him

671
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 1: just sit out there. I'm not touching Ted Hill, all right, Ted,

672
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,479
Speaker 1: they couldn't throw it seven hundred times like Stafford did

673
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 1: last year in Detroit. Yeah, I think about this. Uh No,

674
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 1: it's just not gonna happen. He will not lick it up.

675
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: All right? Very good? That should be a new second. Still,

676
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 1: come in to NFL Fantasy Live, Adam Rank takes you

677
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: through his likes dislikes for week one, where will Ryan

678
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: Matthews and kiss a Lot fall on his list? But

679
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,719
Speaker 1: coming up next, we're taking a look at a handful

680
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: of fantasy stars that could either break good or break

681
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: bad for your squads on Sunday, You're coming back. Manning

682

Speaker 1: off the places Thomas fun touchdown wish Flucker, Marius Thomas.

683
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: Look at this seven touchdown passions the man at the Hour.

684
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 1: Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live. Quick recap of Thursday

685
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: Night football. In case you missed it, the game was

686
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: delayed thirty three minutes. The Ravens should have had it

687
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: delayed even longer if they could. Peyton Manning here he is,

688
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: Broncos trailing by seven hits Julius Thomas for the first

689
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: of two touchdowns for him on the night, ties the

690
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: game at seven. Third quarter, Broncos up four West Welker

691
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: scores the first of two touchdowns for him on the night,

692
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: Broncos seventeen. Fourth quarter, Broncos up by fifteen to Marrius Thomas,

693
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 1: and there he goes seventy eight yard touchdowns, Manning's record

694
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: time seven touchdown pass of the night. Molly Carram doing

695
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: backfoots in our expert lead. Me not so much, because

696
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: that's why I went against Joe Flacco, says mans Hey,

697
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: do that, Payton, that's seven touchdowns. Here's the fantasy points

698
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: of the night. Hayton Manning nearly forty seven fantasy points,

699
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: Marius Thomas twenty eight, Julius Thomas twenty three, and fas

700
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: Julius Thomas. If you didn't watch the game, you heard earlier, Hey,

701
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: Thomas has two touchdowns. Oh, Marius Thomas. It's Julius Thomas

702
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 1: with two touchdowns. What kind of value does he? You know?

703
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: We said earlier in the week that he asked him upside,

704
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: but we wanted to see what happens. Well, we saw

705
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: what happened. He had a big game, and because the

706
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: tight end position is really questionable this season, he is

707
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 1: going to be one of the biggest pickups in the

708
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: waiver wire next week. There's no doubt about that. It's

709
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: just tough to project two touchdowns a week for Julius Thomas,

710
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: but he's still a hot guy you can go after

711
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 1: if you have that needed tight end. Now, we thought

712
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: we're gonna do the breaking bad segment once, but after

713
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 1: we did it last week, the lady from Madrigal called

714
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: and said, no, no, you can't stop now. We need more.

715
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: So back by popular demand on Twitter, Google and our

716
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: NFL offices, Jesse Fabiano and I will tell you which

717
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 1: players we think will break good for week one and

718
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: which will break bad? And by bad I mean I'm

719
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: gonna get Todd's uncle after you bad. So here we go.

720
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: First up, fabs breaking good or bad this week? Russell Wilson.

721
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say he's breaking good. I like the match

722
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,719
Speaker 1: up against the Carolina Panthers. Russell Wilson is not going

723
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 1: to be ranked among the elite quarterbacks in fantasy football,

724
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 1: but he certainly one of the top ten. This is

725
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: one of those games where, hey, you know what, They're

726
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 1: going to be able to utilize the run with Russell Wilson.

727
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: The Panthers have long been a team that struggles to

728
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: stop the run. Russell Wilson is the top ten quarterback

729
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 1: in my opinion. All Right, if you've come this far

730
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: on Isaac Redmand, what's one more? What's one more week

731
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: for Isaac Redmond? This may be the only week you

732
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: play in with Levy on Bell schedule to come back soon.

733
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: But the Titans defense is force against the run. Redman's

734
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: got the number one job. It's gonna be too early

735
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 1: for Felix Jones to try to come in and take

736
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: carries away. Redmond's gonna catch passes out of the backfield.

737
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: He had a hundred yards receiving his last game against

738
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: the Titans. This is a breaking good week for Isaac Redman.

739
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: Now how about Gero Bernard? How does he break this week?

740
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 1: He's breaking bad? And I'm gonna keep people from my

741
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: really bad Jesse Pinkman impersonation. But this is not a

742
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 1: good match. I'm not gonna do it, yo. But I

743
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: just said the Bears are very tough against the run,

744
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: especially on their home field. Bastard. They allotted average of

745
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: under twelve Fantasy points per game to poison running backs.

746
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 1: I lead Gio Bernard long term. This week he's breaking bad.

747
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: D'angela Williams playing him this week is like pouring gasoline

748
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: on the carpet in your house and not Able would

749
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 1: clean it up. D'Angel Williams twenty two red zone carriages

750
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: and in the NFL, he's going to get more red

751
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 1: zone carries this week. But he has a very bad

752
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. This is not a team

753
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: that suddenly is going to give him the ball twenty

754
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 1: five times a game either. He'll still get his twelve

755
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 1: to fifteen carries a game, but that's not going to

756
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 1: break for enough productivity for me to play him this week.

757
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: I like the Angelo more, but not this week. He

758
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 1: said about a lot of guys this week bad. They

759
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: like him, just not this week exactly. So here's our

760
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: list of guys breaking bad. Giovanni, Bernard D'Angel, Williams, Mike

761
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 1: Wallace also on Haydon Island. Neither fans around like him

762
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: this week breaking good. We got Wilson Redmond. That Kimball

763
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: Tompkins on this list. Yeah, Camerall Tompkins is a sneaky

764
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: sleeper this week. The Patriots have had sixteen receiving touchdowns

765
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: in their last five games. In Buffalo, Jason do the math.

766
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: That's a lot. If he wins, he'll moving with Hank

767
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: and Marine. They'll say, come on a lot. I'm living

768
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: with us right here. Big game for Kenbell. He's an

769
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,120

787
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 1: is a sneak peek and let's hit the ground running

788
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 1: with my first like of the week, and that's r

789
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: G three. And did you notice what I did there?

790
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: I said running, because that's what r G three is

791
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: gonna do. He said this week he's not gonna play scared.

792
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: So when he gets the opportunity, he's going to tuck

793
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 1: the ball and run it. Don't be afraid of him

794
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 1: because he certainly isn't going to be afraid of the opportunity.

795
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 1: And also because the Eagles gave up the third most

796
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: points to fantasy quarterbacks last year and seriously, it's r

797
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: G three stardom. A quarterback I disliked this week is

798
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,839
Speaker 1: Eli Manning. Sure he's towards the Dallas Cowboys during his career.

799
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 1: He's on the team of the new house that Jerry built.

800
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:35,879
Speaker 1: Never he's never lost there in six tries, but he's

801
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 1: thrown for at least twelve touchdowns and eight interceptions, and

802
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 1: it lacks six games against the Cowboys, which is nice.

803
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 1: But I'm expecting a little bit more from my QB one.

804
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 1: Now you can guarantee me he was gonna run up

805
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: the score like his brother did on Thursday night. I

806
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,320
Speaker 1: would consider it, but right now he's on my bench.

807
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 1: Up next is Shane Vereen, who I absolutely like against

808
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,240
Speaker 1: the Bills. Buffalo allowed the third most points to fantasy

809
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,360
Speaker 1: running backs last year, and the Patriots have scored sixteen

810
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,400
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns in eleven games in Buffalo. But it's Burrine's

811
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: versatility as a receiver that really intrigues me. I say

812
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: him and Tom Brady hook up for a touchdown this week.

813
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 1: I don't like Ryan Matthew's matchup against the Texans, so

814
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 1: I'll be leaving him on my bench. He will be

815
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 1: a nice flex options at some point during the season,

816
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: just not against the Texans, who allowed the fewest points

817
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 1: to running backs last year. Plus Matthew's top ten fantasy

818
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 1: points just once last year and score early one touchdown.

819
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 1: I expect those numbers you improve, but again not against

820
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 1: the Texans. And finally, de Shawn Jackson gets a big

821
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,400
Speaker 1: fat thumbs up for me for this week. He's my

822
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: tenth rank receiver for Week one and he's crushed the

823
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 1: Redskins in the past and he's going to continue that

824
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: this week. Plus Chip Kelly people, the Eagles and Redskins

825
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 1: will be in a wild shootout. I like everybody there,

826
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 1: start them all all right. Now, let's look at some

827
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: more names to keep an eye on this week. As

828
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 1: you can see RG three, Shane Burne to Sean Jackson,

829
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,280
Speaker 1: the buckste very nice player. They're going up against the Jets.

830
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 1: Jets means turnovers, so I like them. Eli Manning, Ryan Matthews,

831
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: Kenbrell Tompkins going up the Patriots. It's gonna be a

832
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,399
Speaker 1: tough one. I understand because they're gonna want to throw

833
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 1: the ball a ton and you saw Chris Ivory. We

834
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: thought he was gonna come out and take the number

835
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 1: one job in New York. Hasn't done it. So I'm

836
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: leaving him on the bench. With that, I'm gonna send

837
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,759
Speaker 1: it over to Jason Smith and the Fellas for their

838
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:30,439
Speaker 1: fantasy spots starts for a week one. All right, thanks

839
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: a lot, Mr Reich. We'll talk to you get in

840
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,319
Speaker 1: the second. Now, these maybe some guys you're never gonna

841
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 1: start again, which is why we call him spots starts

842
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 1: of the week. So akbar, who's your guy? Who are

843
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: you starting this week? They never start him again, but

844
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: this week you are. I'm gonna have to go with

845
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,759
Speaker 1: Darius Heyward Bay. I know back in two thousand nine

846
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 1: when he was the seventh pick overall, it was very

847
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: hard for people to kind of give I mean, give

848
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,960
Speaker 1: him that opportunity. He just failed you. But I think

849
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: in this opportunity, I think Pep Hamilton's the guys are

850
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: gonna rally round him, saying, you're going up against your

851
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 1: former teammate. I've seen it happen in the locker room.

852
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,360
Speaker 1: I know that they they do this kind of stuff,

853
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 1: They're gonna target Darius Heyward break just to kind of

854
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 1: get show them off a little bit to the raid.

855
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 1: Look what we got from you, Darius Hayward Bay is

856
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: going to succeed in this office. Not to mention that

857
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck throwing him the ball. Now, all right, there

858
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 1: you go, d h B. From the writers. We want

859
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: to hear from the Raiders and Colts again in the second.

860
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,440
Speaker 1: But now, Mr Reik, what about you give me your

861
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: big spot start of the week for this week. I'm

862
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,200
Speaker 1: gonna go with Sydney Rice. He's a great spot starter

863
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: if you're in the need for a receiver. If you

864
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 1: look back at the numbers last year, Sydney Rice was

865
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 1: the leading receiver for the Seattle Seahawks. He was targeted

866
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: eighty two times by Russell Wilson. And if you want

867
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,360
Speaker 1: the straight dopa, you want to really know why Sydney

868
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: Rice should be in your lineup. He said that I

869
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: was rocking an awesome tie earlier this week when I

870
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,359
Speaker 1: interviewed him, which, you know what, in fantasy football, that's

871
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: all I need. I just need little little reassurances like that,

872
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 1: and then you end up in my lineup, So Sydney

873
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: Rice will be my spots start of the week, and

874
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,399
Speaker 1: I feel pretty good about it, actually, almost as good

875
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 1: as I feel about this Tide, which I'm sure he

876
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: would love again. Now, if you saw my board just

877
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: as I can, I don't know where you would have

878
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,359
Speaker 1: been and missed that. I had the Buccaneers as as

879
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,799
Speaker 1: a team as a defense that I like. But if

880
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,720
Speaker 1: somebody savvy went out and picked up the Bucks already, Jason,

881
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 1: who's a defense you might spot start? I would go

882
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 1: with the Indianapolis Colts, as we stick with the Colts

883
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 1: and the Raiders team that we have going on right here,

884
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: because the Indianapolis Colts remade their defense in the offseason,

885
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 1: they were very opportunistic at times last year. The Raiders

886
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: continue to turn the ball over early in the preseason.

887
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: Terrell Prior starting, it's gonna be a whole new thing

888
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: for him with a whole new offense. This is a

889
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,439
Speaker 1: Colts defense that can give you fifteen Fantasy points this week,

890
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: whether it's a pick six, there's gonna be a lot

891
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: of turnovers and you can go get them because they're

892
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 1: owned in less than four percent of fantasy leagues. I

893
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,879
Speaker 1: got Tampa Bay is my number one defense. Indianapolis also

894
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 1: my top five for this week. Again, you may not

895
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,800
Speaker 1: play him again, but this week you probably will do it.

896
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: All right, Marcus, what about you? Who's your big spots?

897
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 1: I am going with Benjamin Tate. Ben Tate is a

898
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,399
Speaker 1: guy that you can really count on. You can count

899
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 1: on him when Arian Foster is healthy and ready to go.

900
00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,800
Speaker 1: But you're looking at a running back again by Foster

901
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 1: who didn't play at all in the preseason. He's having

902
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,800
Speaker 1: issues with his back. They're not quite sure what his

903
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: workload is gonna be. But you can imagine Aaron Foster

904
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: is not going to go out and get thirty carries

905
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 1: this week. So you've got Ben Tate, who certainly has

906
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 1: proven he can be a quality running back for the

907
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,320
Speaker 1: Houston Texans. Don't be surprised if Take can get you

908
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 1: double digit storing this week. He's gonna carry a lot

909
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: of the load. Did a great job in past years

910
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 1: when Foster wasn't healthy. I think he's a guy you

911
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,880
Speaker 1: can really count on this week and contract here for vent.

912
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:26,960
