Speaker 1: Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Yo is as
Speaker 1: the Fantasy best Friends Forever here on the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: a Radio Now work alongside Raggy stamvill I am Gregg,
Speaker 1: So Rag, what's going on about? What's going on here?
Speaker 1: We are about to wrap up Week fifteen, the semifinals
Speaker 1: of the Fantasy Football Playoffs. And if I told you
Speaker 1: that you made it this far, Greg with Andrew look
Speaker 1: see Kwon Barkley, Adam feeling you're really nating my team
Speaker 1: a Marii Cooper, Eric Ebron, Jared Cook, Zach Ertz, whoever
Speaker 1: else you want to mention, you would not be going
Speaker 1: to the championship right now. No, I would not, kind
Speaker 1: of maybe, to be honest with you know, it's funny.
Speaker 1: So the team that I lost my point one obviously
Speaker 1: set my lat up. I don't I don't want to say.
Speaker 1: I said it with a fine tooth comb right like
Speaker 1: I wasn't pouring over because I was out. Like I
Speaker 1: set my line up. I'm gonna guess that you didn't
Speaker 1: get a stack correction and you were still out in
Speaker 1: your home weeks. In fact, it's a fact. So I
Speaker 1: didn't set my line up as well as I could have.
Speaker 1: Damn c Bass and then he's a crap. Missed an
Speaker 1: extra point yesterday. That's why. Just so you know, this
Speaker 1: is the first extra point of the game. I was
Speaker 1: not happy anyway. Um, So I would have actually advanced
Speaker 1: with my Andrew lux shake On Barkley team if I
Speaker 1: would have played Doug baldin ober Kenyan Drake, I had
Speaker 1: no idea if I would ever, I would not have,
Speaker 1: but I just thought that was interesting. So I would
Speaker 1: have actually made it to the finals with that team.
Speaker 1: But nevertheless, that team's out. I do have a team
Speaker 1: that's fighting for its life tonight, which is exciting. I'm
Speaker 1: happy to be in it. Judy was enraged at me yesterday. Yeah, enraged, dude?
Speaker 1: Who what happened? Greggy? Is that why she dressed you
Speaker 1: this morning? I think so, I mean before we really
Speaker 1: get into the football time, and I said I was
Speaker 1: gonna hammer you today. I mean, we gotta do this now.
Speaker 1: Welcoming in the museum. The dad from the museum collection. Uh,
Speaker 1: this is Greg? Greg. Can we go back to the
Speaker 1: white shot. I would like Greg to stand up and
Speaker 1: just kind of like model his outfit for today. He's
Speaker 1: got the khaki's, He's got the purple undershirt with with
Speaker 1: the navy blue crewneck sweater on over it. This guy
Speaker 1: is ready to take his kids to the museum. To
Speaker 1: be fair, Like, I've worn like a sweater with a
Speaker 1: shirt under it before often on this program. Now I
Speaker 1: will literally wear jeans under that um and sometimes sneakers
Speaker 1: and sandals. But today we have Judy's holiday party. So
Speaker 1: I was I was told to dress nicer, dress nicer,
Speaker 1: not just like I think he still could have got
Speaker 1: away with the jeans, Like so, I wasn't sure I
Speaker 1: was gonna wear black jeans, like this outfit would look
Speaker 1: great with jeans agreed. Even black wouldn't look like a
Speaker 1: dead Even black cheese would have been fine. But I
Speaker 1: felt like I needed to wear this now. I had
Speaker 1: some other combinations with this blue sweater. I'm gonna rock
Speaker 1: this winter like I do. Like the blue and purple comments. Right,
Speaker 1: I have a black and blue and green comba. Looks
Speaker 1: pretty cool and I'm excited to wear at some point.
Speaker 1: I'm excited for you to wear. It's literally the sweater
Speaker 1: with a blue green shirt rather um or a light
Speaker 1: blue shirt I have that I was. I was, honestly,
Speaker 1: I was shinnow in my inner non noo today with
Speaker 1: all this. That's fair. I mean, you need a beard,
Speaker 1: but outside of that, I shaved. This one is pretty
Speaker 1: shaved this morning. I'm not happy about that. The thing
Speaker 1: is I had need to playoff beard, Greg, You're going
Speaker 1: deep into the posts season. Need to playoff holiday party
Speaker 1: the night, come on, I got. I mean, I've been
Speaker 1: throwing this out since Halloween and Halloween right, I don't
Speaker 1: think I'm saved. No play off beard, you go. Um.
Speaker 1: But the point was with Judy, so she had a
Speaker 1: decision to make, and well, she started justin Jackson on
Speaker 1: Saturday night on Thursday night. She felt great about that.
Speaker 1: Worked that okay, her face Patrick Mahomes, she was feeling good.
Speaker 1: Now we knew that Todd Gurley was coming down the wire.
Speaker 1: We had Todd Gurley on Sunday night that we had
Speaker 1: to face, which sucked. But she also faced Josh Adams
Speaker 1: and on Sunday night was odd. Nice? Is idiot starting Josh?
Speaker 1: Starting Josh Adams? All right, so your opponent's team, of
Speaker 1: course not, but you kind of control if you start
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones or if you start Marlon Max. Alright, Look, Dudy,
Speaker 1: you can't be mad over that. She's just can't be
Speaker 1: mad over that. That's like, you know, someone tweeted me
Speaker 1: yesterday and would have been going to the championship if
Speaker 1: I started Josh Allen over Andrew Luck. Dude, ten times
Speaker 1: out of ten. I'm starting Andrew Luck there, and I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna lose sleep over it at all. I mean,
Speaker 1: you made the right decision, Aaron Jones. Look, especially because
Speaker 1: you see what Jamal Williams ended up doing yesterday. Greg,
Speaker 1: everything that Jamal Williams did, he had a great game.
Speaker 1: He scored a touchdown as well. That that should have
Speaker 1: been all Aaron Jones. So those people who were and look,
Speaker 1: injuries happened. Especially imagine you started Aaron Jones and Keenan Allen,
Speaker 1: You're you're out, like you're not You're not playing next week.
Speaker 1: And these things happen this far into the NFL season.
Speaker 1: It could happen any week in the NFL season. It
Speaker 1: sucks that, like there's so much online and that, but
Speaker 1: ultimately it would have been a solid game for Aaron
Speaker 1: Jones just based on what Jamal Williams like. There's no
Speaker 1: disputing Aaron Jones is a more talented player than Jamal Williams.
Speaker 1: And then Williams goes out and has this huge game.
Speaker 1: So I mean to get mad over benching Marlon Mack
Speaker 1: for Aaron Jones, I can't do that, Like if you
Speaker 1: ended up, I don't know, starting some Joe Schmo like
Speaker 1: flex running back over Marlon Mack and then you end
Speaker 1: up kicking yourself. But ultimately, yeah, I mean, look, Marlon Mack, yesterday,
Speaker 1: awesome came for Marlon Mack said career highs across the
Speaker 1: board going up against the Cowboys. And I think something
Speaker 1: that kind of went under the radar is the past
Speaker 1: couple of weeks they haven't had their center, Ryan Kelly
Speaker 1: greg and they got Ryan Kelly back yesterday, and that
Speaker 1: offensive line the whole year when they've been together, they
Speaker 1: have just been awesome. So basically, just don't downgrade or
Speaker 1: you know, don't under appreciate or um, you know, just
Speaker 1: don't doubt the Cult's offensive line anymore. That's basically like
Speaker 1: the moral of the story. I mean, career high, twenty
Speaker 1: seven carries. He's only been in the league for two years.
Speaker 1: I realized that Marlon Mack career high and thirty nine yards,
Speaker 1: two touchdowns on the ground yesterday, over five yards per carry.
Speaker 1: He was phenomenal. But I can't. I can't kill you.
Speaker 1: I can't kill Judy. I can't. I wouldn't be killing
Speaker 1: myself right now if I started Aaron Jones over Marl Man.
Speaker 1: Also the team that I was have a part of
Speaker 1: and then fell off of going to the finals, you really, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I'm not necessarily I'm not definitely in finals yet. Wait, Greig,
Speaker 1: we're in the finals in a league together against each other. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the fantasy version against Frank Stanfeld. Yea, the finals meant that? Wait?
Speaker 1: Am I the real lifers? Right? No? I mean all right, cool,
Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, we're facing We're facing each other. How
Speaker 1: funny is that? Well I didn't necessarily win yet, but
Speaker 1: going up against Michael Thomas and you're up thirty, I'm
Speaker 1: up mark Ingram Michael Thomas and I have d J Moore.
Speaker 1: I feel pretty good about it. But it's not a
Speaker 1: walk by any means. Imagine this is still for a
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Imagine there's still for a thousand dollars. That
Speaker 1: would have been cool for you, for you to know, yeah,
Speaker 1: it would be cool for me too. Were the same thing.
Speaker 1: But I give all the credit to my partner Jake,
Speaker 1: like he took this team over when I like, I
Speaker 1: was like, I was paying attention that it just didn't.
Speaker 1: It's pretty much been the opposite. Like on my team,
Speaker 1: I've just been running it all season. I thought Greg
Speaker 1: really cared no, no, like no, me and Greg console
Speaker 1: each other. Greg Biden of redfelt breaks we can hold
Speaker 1: each other a lot, but like waivers, lineup decisions. So
Speaker 1: I didn't feel like the first like six weeks then
Speaker 1: not letter team was doing wrong. But when people started
Speaker 1: bitching about the league, I was like, is this clearly
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. I'll stop so if they went told Jake
Speaker 1: Greg if you win, it's all you. I don't want
Speaker 1: to get where I wentn't flex that's all made a
Speaker 1: fancy league of experts knowing anything with me that you're
Speaker 1: going up against Scott Barrett if I make the finals,
Speaker 1: If you make it to the finals, He's made it
Speaker 1: to the finals. Who are you facing right now? I'm
Speaker 1: facing the Tozie Brothers Toie Brothers. Yeah, and I'm up
Speaker 1: two points with Cam Newton and Alvin Camara's can be tough.
Speaker 1: We'll say not Newton does anything close to what he's
Speaker 1: expected to do. I mean, if he's just Cam Newton,
Speaker 1: if he gives you, if he gives you two hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty passing yards, thirty forty rushing yards and two touchdowns,
Speaker 1: you win. Yeah, that's it. That's what you should do. Alright.
Speaker 1: This being a non PPR league holds well for you,
Speaker 1: immensely great. Let me get into the game from yesterday.
Speaker 1: The Colts defeated the Dallas cowboysing we hit on Mark
Speaker 1: Marlon Mack Frank games about the Cowboys. Frank gave you
Speaker 1: the stats already, Andrew Luck, there's nothing a hundred ninety
Speaker 1: two passing yards and no touchdowns, no interceptions, the rush
Speaker 1: with twenty yards a brutal time for Andrew Luck to
Speaker 1: come up really really small. But it was a monster
Speaker 1: game here from Marlon Mack, which led the coats of
Speaker 1: victory is shutting out the Cowboys. Cowboys team, it's one
Speaker 1: of the hotter teams in the NFL. This what kind
Speaker 1: of came out of nowhere? Frank, Yeah, it really did.
Speaker 1: I mean we all downgraded Marlon Mack because I mean,
Speaker 1: if you look at everything coming into this game, he
Speaker 1: was not performing well what was it. He was held
Speaker 1: under sixty total yards the past two weeks combined heading
Speaker 1: into this game against the Cowboys, and it was not
Speaker 1: a good matchup on paper against the hot Boys defense
Speaker 1: that had been limiting running backs all season long. So again,
Speaker 1: you can't ain't crush yourself for benching Marlon Mack. I
Speaker 1: still had him as a mid range flex option, so
Speaker 1: I mean, if you started someone like in that range
Speaker 1: over him, like that sucks. But I don't blame people
Speaker 1: who ended up benching Marlon Mack for you know, legit
Speaker 1: top twenty four running back or anything like that. TiO Hilton,
Speaker 1: a guy who came into yesterday. I mean, he was
Speaker 1: really the big name on inactive is like we had
Speaker 1: to see, alright, is t Y Hilton gonna be good
Speaker 1: to go? You mentioned after the game that he wasn't
Speaker 1: even sevent in this game, still managed to put up
Speaker 1: five receptions for eighty five yards. So solid game out
Speaker 1: of t Y Hilton. But Andrew, look, I mean not
Speaker 1: even throwing for two hundred uh, not throwing for any touchdowns.
Speaker 1: This was basically just a game flow game. He got
Speaker 1: game flowed here and it was obvious that they were
Speaker 1: able to run effectively. They just were gonna go with
Speaker 1: that all game long. The defense for the Colts played
Speaker 1: extraordinarily well. Uh and it seemed like once they knew
Speaker 1: that they could run the football that they were just
Speaker 1: gonna keep pounding that rock all game long. And you know,
Speaker 1: I really give a lot of credits to Frank Reich
Speaker 1: in the Colts because a lot of teams don't do that,
Speaker 1: like they'll straight away from like all right, we have
Speaker 1: to get Andrew Luck involved. We gotta keep you know,
Speaker 1: we gotta keep our foot on the back of the
Speaker 1: head of the Dallas Cowboys. No, Like dude, they saw
Speaker 1: what was working and they just went with it. And
Speaker 1: and Marlon Mack was amazing in this game on the
Speaker 1: other side. And I'm sure you know Corey for what
Speaker 1: it's worth, he is very critical of Deck, so I'll
Speaker 1: give him credit of that. And you know, there were
Speaker 1: multiple times yesterday and all season long, Dad Prescott has
Speaker 1: a Mariy Cooper down the field where Mary Cooper has
Speaker 1: space and he overthrows him like there was that. There
Speaker 1: was a few times, specifically, there was one that sticks
Speaker 1: out of my head yesterday where he had a step
Speaker 1: on a guy and he that could have either been
Speaker 1: a long catch or you know, it could have broken
Speaker 1: out for a touchdown and Dad just completely missed him.
Speaker 1: But that seems to happen way too often where Dad
Speaker 1: is just overthrowing guys. It's not really like underthrows. He
Speaker 1: consistently overthrows guys. And that happened yesterday. You know, I
Speaker 1: actually bought into Zeke. I bought into a Mariy Cooper
Speaker 1: used those guys in family yesterday. They were the only
Speaker 1: reason why my team sucked. The tight end position was
Speaker 1: just dreadful overall. But Eric Ebron had a ton of
Speaker 1: big drops yesterday as well. I was debating between him,
Speaker 1: Jared Cooke even drunk, and the tight end position. Just overall,
Speaker 1: yesterday was a crap shot disaster. Yeah, straight of disaster
Speaker 1: unless you were able to start Jallen Samuel's at the
Speaker 1: ten end position, and then things obviously went very well.
Speaker 1: From here's your top five tight ends just for you, Greg,
Speaker 1: Garrett Sellek not George Kittle, it's you know, it's fifteen.
Speaker 1: Let's use Garrett Sellek here, who had, you know, two
Speaker 1: receptions for sixty one yards in a touchdown, and that
Speaker 1: was your tight end one. Think about that, two receptions
Speaker 1: for sixty one yards and a touchdown. Trey Burton who
Speaker 1: had done nothing forever the past couple of weeks. Use
Speaker 1: your tight end to Jeremy Sprinkle good old the sprinkle Man.
Speaker 1: Gregre receptions for nineten yard and the touchdown, even Ingram
Speaker 1: receptions for seventy five years. People. I saw Odell Beckham
Speaker 1: was out. You know what I put in my line up,
Speaker 1: Sterling Shepherd, not Evan Ingram. So there you go. Great,
Speaker 1: Vance McDonald two receptions thirteen yards and a touchdown. Like
Speaker 1: that's your top five tight ends in week fifteen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: tend nothing this week, um, that's why you had a
Speaker 1: huge van and you had Jilien, Samuel Zach or someone
Speaker 1: of that crushed people last night, I get to the
Speaker 1: Eagles and Rams. Obviously in just one second Mary Cooper
Speaker 1: before I move on. Mark Cooper had four for thirty two,
Speaker 1: and Frank, one of the big things you were talking
Speaker 1: about when it came to Mary Cooper was floor and
Speaker 1: ceiling and how it has changed since he's gotten to Dallas,
Speaker 1: that we didn't have these types of games coming. And
Speaker 1: then it did get credits to the Colds defense. They
Speaker 1: played phenomenal. They've been great in the past couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: But again, as I mentioned, they're gonna be games where
Speaker 1: all right, we've mentioned the floor in the ceiling. You
Speaker 1: realize since he's joined the Cowboys. Uh, he had a
Speaker 1: four for thirty two. Here, he had three for thirty
Speaker 1: five against the Falcons. Uh. Those those are his floor games.
Speaker 1: But really all the other games like seventies six yards
Speaker 1: we see the monster blow up to seventeen and three,
Speaker 1: one eighty and two. He had another game against the
Speaker 1: Eagles where he was seventy five yards against the Titans,
Speaker 1: So really five out of the seven games that he's
Speaker 1: been with the Cowboys, like he's provided a very safe
Speaker 1: floor and then there's been two games where he's completely
Speaker 1: blown up. But really it's it's the play of Dak
Speaker 1: Prescott which ultimately can limit Marii Cooper's upside because again,
Speaker 1: like he was getting open yesterday, but Dak Prescott was
Speaker 1: just missed him multiple times throughout this game. So seven targets.
Speaker 1: He's had at least seven targets in every game but
Speaker 1: one with the Cowboys. It's because of that floor that
Speaker 1: I'm saying, like, we know, we know what a Marie
Speaker 1: Cooper could be obviously, and I won't retract my statement
Speaker 1: just because of you know, one game against the Colts
Speaker 1: where obviously if you had him in the line up,
Speaker 1: he hurt you from in DFS and season long, like
Speaker 1: it definitely hurts, but he's gonna go in the second
Speaker 1: round next year. He's still gonna go in the second round.
Speaker 1: Telling you that's all right, we'll see, we'll see. Greg
Speaker 1: said that about Julio Jones this time last year. It's different.
Speaker 1: He's a cowboy. I don't want a cowboy on my team.
Speaker 1: Let me move, let me move on. Um. He started
Speaker 1: in the Atlanta Devens yesterday. It worked out if we
Speaker 1: had had a beat fourteen. I'm not gonna harp on
Speaker 1: this one, but Tevin Coleman out of nowhere, the other
Speaker 1: one of these guys that really let you down most
Speaker 1: of the season. If you started him this week because
Speaker 1: you were desperate for whatever reason, he was fantastic, rushing
Speaker 1: yards on the ground at a touchdown, it was all
Speaker 1: you got. Lucky you started Tim Colan this week. He
Speaker 1: worked out. Yeah, definitely lucky. But if you read the
Speaker 1: five players that I was higher on than the consensus, Greig,
Speaker 1: it was basically it was a tandem. It was like
Speaker 1: the Falcons running backs. Like I did say admittedly that
Speaker 1: I liked EO. Smith more than Tevin Coleman, but I
Speaker 1: both had them as flex options. And I mentioned last
Speaker 1: week when I had the King sitting in that exact chair. Yes,
Speaker 1: and I did like the Falcons running backs this week.
Speaker 1: And Edo Smith, for what it's worth, got stuff on
Speaker 1: the goal line. The very next play Matt Ryan rushed
Speaker 1: a touchdown and so look, Edo Smith was not good
Speaker 1: by any means. Nine carries for thirty four yards um.
Speaker 1: He had two receptions for five yards, So you know,
Speaker 1: just over just about forty total yards. But if he
Speaker 1: had to touchdown, you feel a lot better about it.
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman absolutely phenomenal in this game. Did that on
Speaker 1: only eleven touches overall eleven carries, and I believe there
Speaker 1: was like another seventy yard touched and I got called
Speaker 1: back because of holding penalty. So yeah, he was. He
Speaker 1: was great in this game. Continue to use running backs
Speaker 1: against the Cardinals defense. Greg he talks a lot about
Speaker 1: where Levian Bell is gonna end up in the off season.
Speaker 1: Kevin Coleman is a name to watch here because for
Speaker 1: for everyone who's talking about, all right, well the Texans,
Speaker 1: the Chiefs are gonna be in on Levian Bell. Guess what,
Speaker 1: there's only one Levion Bell, so not everyone's gonna get
Speaker 1: Levian Bell. Whoever doesn't get Levian Bell, I do believe
Speaker 1: that the next running back up that they'll see in
Speaker 1: free agency will be excited about is Tevin Coleman. Julio
Speaker 1: Jones at his hundredth catch of the season yesterday along
Speaker 1: with his overgoing over fifteen hundred yards, and he also
Speaker 1: caught his six touchdown. Obviously in a while to get
Speaker 1: the touchdowns, but they've been coming quite often here in
Speaker 1: the second half of the year. In fact, over his
Speaker 1: last one, two, three, four or five six seven games.
Speaker 1: Over his last seven games he has six touchdowns. So
Speaker 1: the second half of the year has been very plentiful
Speaker 1: and fruitful for Julio's fantasy owners. He has yet he
Speaker 1: had one bad game. Really all year we had two
Speaker 1: for eight team. Every other game was just amazing. Julio Jones,
Speaker 1: right back, where should be? I guess positive touchdown regression,
Speaker 1: finally scoring touchdowns as you mentioned. Great? How about David
Speaker 1: Johnson last week? All of his owners got elimited from playoffs,
Speaker 1: all of them but most of them this week response,
Speaker 1: does what you're supposed to do against the Falcons? Where's
Speaker 1: the touchdown? Over ninety total yards? Too little, too late?
Speaker 1: When we come back Rams and the Eagles, that's coming
Speaker 1: your way next. Daily Roado dot Com learned from the

Speaker 1: Last night, the Los Angeles Rams fell at home to
Speaker 1: the Nick Foles led Philadelphia Eagles. Is Folls magical in
Speaker 1: the month of December and January or are the Rams
Speaker 1: now officially a question mark in the NFC? I think
Speaker 1: it was more so the Eagles defense that showed up.
Speaker 1: I mean, Nick Foles is not manning the defense. He
Speaker 1: did make plays when he needed to, but if you
Speaker 1: just look at the stat line, it doesn't necessarily tell
Speaker 1: the entirety of the game. For two h and seven yards,
Speaker 1: no touchdowns and an I N T, but some huge
Speaker 1: plays downfields alson Jeffrey really just waned up there. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on with the Rams defense
Speaker 1: right now. And you know they touched on this on
Speaker 1: the broadcast game spoke about this a little bit as well. Um,
Speaker 1: the Rams basically tried to put together a super team
Speaker 1: of players. The problem when you do that is you
Speaker 1: have to pay all these players greg and they don't
Speaker 1: have a lot of debts. So when guys go down,
Speaker 1: it's like a next man up mentality, But they don't
Speaker 1: have the greatest depth players behind once those players who
Speaker 1: go down like they're playing without some offensive linemen right now.
Speaker 1: And I know, you know and Dominican sue, he's a name.
Speaker 1: He hasn't necessarily played the way that they've hoped he would.
Speaker 1: But Aaron Donald has, you know, he's done his his part.
Speaker 1: They trade for Dante Fowler, you haven't heard his name much,
Speaker 1: not really making a lot of plays here. So I
Speaker 1: mean the Eagles were basically just able to push the
Speaker 1: Rams around in this game last night. I mean the
Speaker 1: running backs Wendel Smallwood randomly need rushes for two touchdowns.
Speaker 1: We're back to We're back to the Doug Peterson days
Speaker 1: of old, where Wendel Smallwood ten carries, Darren Sprawls three carries,
Speaker 1: Josh Adams fifteen carries. Was not very good in those carries.
Speaker 1: But everyone's scoring touchdowns now. Alshon Jeffrey, I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: sorry if you had him on the bench. He was
Speaker 1: on my bench in the league, and you know, going
Speaker 1: up against keeps to Leave the past couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: keep to Leave had had done very good and the
Speaker 1: Rams defense had performed well against wide receivers. So with
Speaker 1: Nick Foles coming in, didn't necessarily know what you were
Speaker 1: gonna get. So alshon Jeffrey was on my bench, I
Speaker 1: can't necessarily blame. People were benching him as well. And
Speaker 1: then Jared Goff, like, what's going on with Jared Goff
Speaker 1: right now? We we you know, we talked about the
Speaker 1: deaf issues for the Rams right now. Thirty five for
Speaker 1: fifty four, Yeah, you're putting up a ton of yards,
Speaker 1: but a lot of those are dinking dunks. At the
Speaker 1: end of the game, six point three yards per attempt,
Speaker 1: no touchdowns, two interceptions. I was expecting a much bigger
Speaker 1: game from Jared Goff here in a good spot against
Speaker 1: the Eagles secondary greg because that's the way to attack
Speaker 1: the Eagles is through the secondary. He throws for a
Speaker 1: lot of yards, but did not throw a touchdown and
Speaker 1: throwing two interceptions in this game game. So I think
Speaker 1: we're kind of seeing the Rams vulnerability here so much
Speaker 1: of what I read about this morning after this game
Speaker 1: was the absence of Cooper Coff and how much that
Speaker 1: changed this offense. Do you buy that to an extent
Speaker 1: because we do know that he was the safety blanket
Speaker 1: for for Jared Goff, like he was the number one
Speaker 1: target for golf. We all knew that, you know, a
Speaker 1: lot of the big games golf had this year that
Speaker 1: that came when Cooper cup was healthy obviously, But I
Speaker 1: mean's still throwing for a lot of yards and it's
Speaker 1: not like these wide receivers aren't getting open, like Brandon
Speaker 1: Cooks and Robert Woods are still getting open. But you're seeing,
Speaker 1: like what the Eagles did last night is they sent
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure in Jared Goff's face, and like
Speaker 1: most quarterbacks, doesn't deal well with pressure. So we mentioned
Speaker 1: the deaf issues at the ram they're having right now,
Speaker 1: a few injuries to their offensive line, and then you
Speaker 1: face a pass rush that sends a lot of Blitzer
Speaker 1: that you liked the Philadelphia Eagles, and that's a recipe
Speaker 1: for disaster. So you know, again, just not performing well
Speaker 1: under pressure, throwing a lot of interceptions right now. Um,
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean I as somewhat buy into like
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup not being there. But I don't think it's
Speaker 1: a I don't think it's um the lone reason I
Speaker 1: think Sean McVeigh. I mean, we gotta give we give
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh credit when everything's going right. I think we
Speaker 1: gotta give him a little bit of criticism here. You
Speaker 1: mentioned Sean McVeigh last week seemed like he was a
Speaker 1: little bit overmatched, just you know, wasn't himself in that
Speaker 1: game against the Bears. Last night seemed like more of
Speaker 1: the same. Yeah, And I read an interesting quote yesterday
Speaker 1: on Twitter say that, but it pointed out that Sean
Speaker 1: mcveighs a really good X is a nose coach, but
Speaker 1: not a really good analytics coach is really which is
Speaker 1: really interesting. Like he knows the XS and nose and
Speaker 1: he knows. We love how he can recite things off
Speaker 1: the back of his hand, right, like he knows every
Speaker 1: play for the last twenty years in football, which is awesome.
Speaker 1: And we love the fact that he ran every play
Speaker 1: out of the same formation. We're not working anymore. It's
Speaker 1: not working nearly as well as it worked the first
Speaker 1: ten weeks of the season. Teams have called on make
Speaker 1: adjustments you have to make adjustments, and he hasn't been
Speaker 1: able to do that. I've also noticed, because the Rams
Speaker 1: have been in primetime so often this year, I've also
Speaker 1: noticed this is a team that have used their time
Speaker 1: outs early in every single game. We saw it last week.
Speaker 1: You saw it again last night. They only had one
Speaker 1: time out um in the last three minutes of the ball.
Speaker 1: How the players not running out of balance? Craig I
Speaker 1: was getting. I was getting because I saw you know,
Speaker 1: there were people very critical of Sean McVeigh because of
Speaker 1: that last night. I know Warren Sharp was one of
Speaker 1: them last night, you know, bashing like you need to
Speaker 1: instill this into your players heads. And you know, we've
Speaker 1: seen Todd Gurley make smart decisions this year. We've seen
Speaker 1: him make not smartson decisions when it comes to you know,
Speaker 1: him falling down and you know, wanting to win the game.
Speaker 1: He's like, Oh, Sean McVeigh teaches us that, Well, how
Speaker 1: about when you're going down the field and you have
Speaker 1: no time outs, instead of trying to get three more yards,
Speaker 1: go out of bounds? Yeah, I mean girl and Generald
Speaker 1: Everett not going at a bound Girl and Generald Gerald
Speaker 1: Everett cost their team several several plays yesterday unfortunately, and
Speaker 1: there's one desperation he and I get what they were doing.
Speaker 1: On the desperation he the Josh Reynolds, they would have
Speaker 1: to the smallest quarterback. You kind of throw a jump
Speaker 1: ball um That didn't make sense. And I want to
Speaker 1: get to get the Patriots a second which had a
Speaker 1: similar problem. But Jean McVeigh did not call the game
Speaker 1: last night. Again, He did not instill going out of
Speaker 1: balance to his players again, and the time outs are
Speaker 1: an issue. He got out coached last night. And I'll
Speaker 1: say this, Tug Peterson, who would you rather have right now?
Speaker 1: I guy just want a Super Bowl Nick Foles and
Speaker 1: went in l A with Nick Foles and one or
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh. Who do you want to be the head coach?
Speaker 1: That's fine, that's fine, But I think there's argument. There's
Speaker 1: still a lot of pieces. They're like I mentioned the
Speaker 1: lack of depth, but there's still like there are talented pieces,
Speaker 1: and you know, they rams meet a little bit of this.
Speaker 1: They need to get punched in the very how they
Speaker 1: respond a little bit, but they I mean they've been
Speaker 1: It's not just got punched in the mouth, you know,
Speaker 1: they're kind of taking a few haymakers here because they're losing,
Speaker 1: like and we were so sure that when they went
Speaker 1: back to LA would be different. They wouldn't have to
Speaker 1: go on the road, they would't have to go to
Speaker 1: a hostile in this game. I know that's an issue.
Speaker 1: Last night. I believe this was only the second time
Speaker 1: in the past it was like some like forty years
Speaker 1: or something that a team that was thirteen point dogs
Speaker 1: in a game led by seventeen points going to the
Speaker 1: fourth Quarter's listen, it's an issue. It's an absolute issue.
Speaker 1: The Rams currently eleven and three of the Saints went
Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden, Eagles are not dead,
Speaker 1: are alive again. And listen, if the if the Rams,
Speaker 1: if the Saints win tonight, the Saints now have the
Speaker 1: edge to get home feel advantage throughout the playoffs. There's
Speaker 1: the only one game back and holy tiebreaker with the Rams.
Speaker 1: So if the Bears went out, the Rams dropped one,
Speaker 1: l A is playing in the first round and then
Speaker 1: they have to go to Chicago the second week of
Speaker 1: the playoffs, and we know what happened the last time.
Speaker 1: If Chicago gets home field for any consistently out the playoff, Like,
Speaker 1: if they finished the number one seed in the spot,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be very hard for them not to make
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. And I know everyone's talking about that
Speaker 1: right now, you know, very reactionary and oh well, the
Speaker 1: Bears are riding high right now. Look what they've done
Speaker 1: the past two weeks at home. They limited Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 1: like we said they would do. They limit Jared Goff
Speaker 1: and the Rams offense. We didn't think that they would
Speaker 1: do it to that extent, but right now, I mean,
Speaker 1: if the playoffs go through Chicago in the NFC, it's
Speaker 1: a very very tough spot to be especially for the powerhouses.
Speaker 1: Right Like, if somehow Chicago winds up a let's say
Speaker 1: New Orleans loses tonight, just for fun, right because we
Speaker 1: know that New Orleans is not the same team on
Speaker 1: the road either. That's my point, Right, they lose in Carolina,
Speaker 1: you have the Saints of the Rams bowl up top
Speaker 1: at eleven and three. Um, if they lose tonight in Chicago,
Speaker 1: one game back of that, it is a totally different
Speaker 1: ball game for both the Saints and the Rams. And
Speaker 1: they have to travel Chicago, and the same molds true
Speaker 1: for Chicago traveling to the Doman New Orleans and to
Speaker 1: Los Angeles. It's those three teams. Man, It's it's really hard,
Speaker 1: and we're talking about hope feel advantage a lot. All
Speaker 1: three of those teams have major hopefield advantage. Of the
Speaker 1: RAM is probably having the least of it, I would
Speaker 1: say out there in l A. Um. Oddly enough, neverth last,
Speaker 1: McVeigh got out coached last night. Once again McVeigh has
Speaker 1: to turn things around in l A and very very
Speaker 1: quickly does that have to happen next week? The Los
Speaker 1: Angeles Rams are where the Rams are in Arizona from
Speaker 1: what you need to pick me up there. Um, but
Speaker 1: I will will mention Greg just bringing it back to
Speaker 1: fantasy here Alston Jeffrey, Like if you had this guy
Speaker 1: in your bank and you're advancing. They're going up against
Speaker 1: the Houston Texas next week. Now, Remember Greg, I told
Speaker 1: you that I liked Robbie Anderson heading into week fifteen
Speaker 1: because the Texans had allowed the most Fantasy points over
Speaker 1: the past two weeks heading into this game. Last week
Speaker 1: they allowed receiving r s t Y Hilton. Robbie Anderson
Speaker 1: just had a great game against the Houston Texans and
Speaker 1: now Alston Jeffrey and the Philadelphia Eagles will be back
Speaker 1: home hosting the Housuston Texans. Another great game on paper
Speaker 1: where you know you'll be able to see like who's
Speaker 1: legit and who's like who's a real contentator this year
Speaker 1: and who's not in that game. But the Texans secondary
Speaker 1: could be taking advantage of right now. And I think
Speaker 1: with Nick Foles back under center, assuming that he's the
Speaker 1: quarterback again next week, because I don't know if we
Speaker 1: see Carson Wentz playing another game this year, Alison Jeffrey
Speaker 1: is going to be in play as a fantasy option
Speaker 1: against that Texan secondary well for season long. NDF, that's
Speaker 1: an absolutely zach Art was a disaster last night. I
Speaker 1: mean that was brutal for zach Art's owners. As we're
Speaker 1: both sent ends this week, I recognize that, but it
Speaker 1: definitely wasn't a matchup team that they saw on paper
Speaker 1: either going into this game where they're like, we have
Speaker 1: Alshon Jeffrey against the keep to lead, that's a matchup
Speaker 1: we want to attack. I think it's just Nick Foles
Speaker 1: has a familiarity with Alshon Jeffrey. We saw it in
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl last year, where you know he just
Speaker 1: kind of heaves one up and Alison Jeffrey comes down
Speaker 1: with it. You know, maybe Carson Wentz needs to take
Speaker 1: more chances like that with Alson Jeffrey, and you know,
Speaker 1: he doesn't gain the separation. He's he's not Kelvin Benjamin,
Speaker 1: but he's like Kelvin Benjamin ESQ. Were like, he can't
Speaker 1: get behind defenses anymore and he doesn't gain a lot
Speaker 1: of yards of separation. We can still go up and
Speaker 1: win that, so um, Nick Foles is not scared to
Speaker 1: throw that. Alston Jeffrey trending in the right direction, absolutely, Okay.
Speaker 1: I mentioned New England yesterday and the heap hoed they
Speaker 1: had at the end, New England and Pittsburgh and fell
Speaker 1: and fell. Video producer Alex Zano says, quote Pittsburgh or
Speaker 1: do anything now anything this season? They beat New England
Speaker 1: and like they won the Super Bowl, because that's a
Speaker 1: loser mentality. That's like the Jets winning Pats That's how
Speaker 1: I feel. That's exactly I felt. I'm like, Alice, what
Speaker 1: he's talking about, man, Like you were a chance to
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl, nelt we beat the Patriots, good man,
Speaker 1: we weren't supposed to win that game like you're at home, like, oh, Greggy,
Speaker 1: I mean we really weren't supposed to win that game.
Speaker 1: That The Patriots were the least penalized team in the
Speaker 1: league going into that game, and they were hammered with penalties.
Speaker 1: They dropped so many passes, Edelman and Gordon dropping big
Speaker 1: key plays. I'm not saying we were totally out of it,
Speaker 1: but the Steelers did not look good, especially with Bossible
Speaker 1: missing another field goal. Yeah. I don't care ifou any
Speaker 1: of that. You I walked in today and you said,
Speaker 1: I don't care anything that happens we beat the Patriots.
Speaker 1: I mean, why does great? That's also they haven't been
Speaker 1: able to beat the Patriots for a long time. I
Speaker 1: know the Mike Tomlins versus Belichick thing is. I understand
Speaker 1: what you're saying. It's a very New York Jets. Mine
Speaker 1: don't want to be the New York Jets. I can
Speaker 1: tell you that. First, the season is not over yet.
Speaker 1: We got New Orleans coming up, so it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a tough one. So I hate, I hate the Steelers
Speaker 1: are having New Orleans coming up. I hate this man.
Speaker 1: This is such a loser mentality, dude, Like I don't
Speaker 1: think you're a loser. But this sounds like a Jet
Speaker 1: fan loser obviously, and that sounds like are a loser. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean Sam Donald like a winner on Saturday. That's
Speaker 1: very good that game and and we're gonna do this forever.
Speaker 1: We're gonna come back to Oh Sam Donald Kuon Barkley, Well,
Speaker 1: looks at Kuon Barkley can only do so much like
Speaker 1: man his quarterbacks with some of my Jet fan friends
Speaker 1: on Saturday. He was awesome to watch. I don't even
Speaker 1: care that the Jets. No, no, it's just saying you
Speaker 1: need to see his development from Sam dark. That game
Speaker 1: could not have gone better for the Jets. Donald looks
Speaker 1: the forty niners one straight to the third pick. Now,
Speaker 1: it's amazing, It's fantastic. I mean admittedly, like I don't
Speaker 1: watch college football like every single Saturday, Like come close
Speaker 1: to the draft, like I'll start, you know, I'll do
Speaker 1: what I need to do. But everything I've seen is
Speaker 1: like I don't know who they're going to draft there.
Speaker 1: Trade back, do what the Indianapolis coach just did. Trade
Speaker 1: back with a team that needs a quarterback. I know
Speaker 1: that there's like no quarterback that's expected to go in
Speaker 1: the top five. But this happens every single year where
Speaker 1: someone's gonna get talked up and look, that's trade back
Speaker 1: anymore assets get a second round pick because you lost
Speaker 1: that second round pick because he traded with the Colts.
Speaker 1: But I'm cool with it. Sam Darnald very very good
Speaker 1: in that game, Greg, he was excellent. But anyway, the Jets, whatever,
Speaker 1: you go, New York Sports Radio. Back to the Steelers
Speaker 1: in the Patriots, that mentality, it just me better like
Speaker 1: that was Judy where it's like, oh, you know, how
Speaker 1: to I had a good season, like she's a better team. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: the Steelers were legit contender coming into the season. They
Speaker 1: were legit two weeks ago. I know they lost to
Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders, but you do have to still kind of,
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta play the Giants. We're talking about
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. Here's here's here's what's going on, Greg,
Speaker 1: And here's why. It's kind of like a hairy situation.
Speaker 1: They go to New Orleans next week, right New Orleans.
Speaker 1: I will we'll see what happens to night against the Panthers.
Speaker 1: They haven't been themselves really since Thanksgiving, and I know
Speaker 1: they kind of like handed the they handled the Falcons
Speaker 1: in that game, or rather the Cowboys games, so that's
Speaker 1: a Cowboys game. The Saints have not even been themselves,
Speaker 1: so we'll see what happens with that. But I'm sure
Speaker 1: you know, the Saints will be favorites at home next
Speaker 1: week against the Steelers. That's gonna be a tough game
Speaker 1: for them. And then you get Cincinnati. The class it
Speaker 1: seems like they faced Incinnati every single season week seventeen.
Speaker 1: They should be able to win that game. But you
Speaker 1: might be looking at like legitimately a nine, six and
Speaker 1: one finish here for the Pittsburgh Steelers that should be
Speaker 1: able to get them into the playoffs. The Baltimore Ravens,
Speaker 1: I mean, they're like they've completely, you know, flipped the
Speaker 1: script right now. I mean, John Harbo has pretty much
Speaker 1: saved his job there four and one Lamar Jackson's five starts,
Speaker 1: and you know, I saw an awesome tweet yesterday from
Speaker 1: uh Scott Barrett, your boy Scott Barrett greg where basically
Speaker 1: the past two years, the Ravens have been the most
Speaker 1: past happy team. Over this five game stretch with Lamar Jackson,
Speaker 1: no team has been running the football more than the
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. And that is the mark of a great
Speaker 1: coach is not making your player and your personnel fit
Speaker 1: your scheme fit what you're trying to do. It's taking
Speaker 1: your scheme and your play calling and fitting that to
Speaker 1: the personnel that you have and doing it on a
Speaker 1: dime like that mid season. That's some mark of a
Speaker 1: great coach, greg John Harbor and the Ravens trending in
Speaker 1: the right direction. Awesome game on Saturday next week. We
Speaker 1: want to talk about Saturday games the Chargers in the
Speaker 1: Ravens next week. Greggy. It's not like your shootout, your
Speaker 1: classic shootout, but Archers and Ravens. Uh there there there
Speaker 1: could be some pretty legit playoff implications in that matchup,
Speaker 1: all right? Uh So, and they're going back to breaking
Speaker 1: down the Steelers of the Patriots here just for a moment.
Speaker 1: Uh They ran the ball very very well. Jalen Samuels
Speaker 1: and nineteen carries career high for hundred forty two yards.
Speaker 1: He was fantastic. Stephen, really in their right Jame I
Speaker 1: have three carries, you know, is a guy um about that.
Speaker 1: We'll see if James Conner can make his return, and
Speaker 1: we'll see what kind of So I say this, it's
Speaker 1: to kind of usage Hill how when he comes back,
Speaker 1: because Samuel has been so good. But would it surprised
Speaker 1: you one bit if it was like James conner early downs,
Speaker 1: Jalen Samuel's third downs stunned? Really? Yeah, you think if
Speaker 1: James Conner is healthier, just to him. Just think about this.
Speaker 1: For years with Pittsburgh, every backups come in and every
Speaker 1: backers performed. Not that I want to discredit or discount
Speaker 1: Lady Bell at all, but the Steelers running back that
Speaker 1: system has been very, very productive. Anybody you throw out there,
Speaker 1: anybody from D'Angelo Williams to Fitzgerald Toussaint to Jalen Samuel's
Speaker 1: they've all gotten the job done. I think the Steelers
Speaker 1: want to be a one back organization as we have seen.
Speaker 1: And when Dan Julie is really hot and the Damian
Speaker 1: Bell came back, Williams went to the bench. The same
Speaker 1: thing will happen with Jalen Samuels aport and just don't
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying. But I just don't know
Speaker 1: if Connor is going to be I know it's a
Speaker 1: big game against the Saints. I just don't know that
Speaker 1: he'll be healthy enough to get like the normal five
Speaker 1: touches any normally does, so I don't know that Jalen
Speaker 1: Samuels just goes completely away. We'll talk about the Patriots
Speaker 1: side of things when we come back, as well as
Speaker 1: either that Raven contain where Dirk Cutter is done after this.

Speaker 1: and then watch more football was awesome. Watching eventful weekend
Speaker 1: for Greg sum and I watched TLC. You're extually the

Speaker 1: was a lull. I mean the West Coast games ended early,
Speaker 1: red Zone ended at like seven thirty. I had nothing
Speaker 1: to watch until whenever twenties, so I turned on a
Speaker 1: little little t l C, little resting action. It wasn't
Speaker 1: great from what I saw. Did you watch You want
Speaker 1: to watch the main event? That? Oh? No, it was awesome.
Speaker 1: It was all football, Greg. Did you watch the main event? Man?
Speaker 1: I played? I played the fan Duels Showdown, Single Game Slate.

Speaker 1: just going back to this Patriots and Steelers game, James Washington,
Speaker 1: you're leading receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers, just like everyone
Speaker 1: everyone predicted, right. All he needed was a few weeks
Speaker 1: of Big Ben bashing him on Roethlisberger's radio show or
Speaker 1: podcast or whatever he does, and there you go, three
Speaker 1: for sixty five. But Antonio Brown, thank god he scored
Speaker 1: a touchdown. But everything else in this game four forty nine.
Speaker 1: A lot of people were on juju yesterday for DFS.
Speaker 1: I was on Juju yesterday. Huge letdown game here for
Speaker 1: for forty was targeted ten times. I know he was excited.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw the tweet Greg that
Speaker 1: after the game, Bill Belichick um praised him, had a
Speaker 1: few words together. So Juju was very excited about that
Speaker 1: they get the win. But Julian Edelman, he's the guy.
Speaker 1: And I mentioned this last week as well, Greg, there
Speaker 1: are too many mounts of feed in the Patriots offensive system.
Speaker 1: Right now. They're like, there's Sony Michelle, there's James White
Speaker 1: getting you two RaaS for twelve yards, only five receptions
Speaker 1: for twenty five yards. Everyone on Twitter freaking out. Start, Well,
Speaker 1: why aren't they using James White, Dude, there's too many
Speaker 1: mounts to feed. Runk two receptions for twenty one yards,
Speaker 1: Josh Gordon one receptions for nine yards. I mentioned there's
Speaker 1: five main players skill position players for the Patriots, Gordon, Ronk, Edelman,
Speaker 1: James White, Sony Michelle. Every single week, at least two
Speaker 1: of those guys are gonna disappoint you. And now we're
Speaker 1: getting to the level where three of those players are
Speaker 1: disappointing you. Actually even more because Sony Michelle was not
Speaker 1: great in this game either. Four of these players disappointed you.
Speaker 1: This week. Julian Edelman was the only one seven reception
Speaker 1: for ninety yards. And you know, I think it's easy
Speaker 1: to say that he's the one guy who has the
Speaker 1: safest floor, who is most likely not to disappoint you
Speaker 1: on a weekly basis. Tom Brady, we see this every
Speaker 1: single year. This is probably the year where it's finally
Speaker 1: starting to make sense, where age final starting to catch
Speaker 1: up to him. Greg tom Brady does not look like himself.
Speaker 1: I know that's one one week after having a phenomenal
Speaker 1: game against the Miami Dolphins. Credits Steelers defense here. Tom
Speaker 1: Brady has not been himself this season. He has not.
Speaker 1: I also didn't like the play callinge at the end
Speaker 1: of the game. It was weird. It was like Brady
Speaker 1: just airmailing passes towards ends, Like what are you doing?
Speaker 1: Brady did something he never does either, going down randomly
Speaker 1: throwing the ball in the air interception. That's something that's
Speaker 1: something you see from Eli, from Sam Dark you knew
Speaker 1: your quarterbacks, that's something you see from those guys. Tom Brady,
Speaker 1: you don't normally see that. I don't know what's going
Speaker 1: on with him on the season. Let's see this. Tom
Speaker 1: Brady is in four point passing touchdown leagues, your QB
Speaker 1: thirteen on the season, and if you turn that into
Speaker 1: on a per game basis. That brings him all the
Speaker 1: way down uh fantasy points per game. Tom brady QULB
Speaker 1: sixteen could be sixteen overall. That's because players have gotten hurt,
Speaker 1: so he moves up on a per game basis. Tom
Speaker 1: Brady's QB sixteen this season. He's still gonna be drafted
Speaker 1: at the top five quarterback again next year. I don't
Speaker 1: think he shouldn't be. I don't Teva will probably talk
Speaker 1: themselves into it well, so he shouldn't be like hands down,
Speaker 1: he should No, no, no, I know that. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to think of five, like the five quarterbacks. I know
Speaker 1: we'll be draft ahead of Tom Brady obviously. That's one
Speaker 1: I think people will buy back in on Matt Ryan
Speaker 1: next year. I think he'll have five quarterbacks. Don't think
Speaker 1: he'll be a top five quarterback. I think he'll go
Speaker 1: ahead of Tom Brady. Aaron Rodgers will still get ding absolutely,
Speaker 1: Drew Brees. He doesn't retire, I mean if the Saints
Speaker 1: win at all. I mean, if the Saints win at all.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying. I was talking to my buddies about
Speaker 1: this last night. Imagine you have like Kamara and Michael
Speaker 1: Thomas and keeper dynasty and Drew Brees retires. Were you
Speaker 1: looking at next year? Teddy Bridgewater. I'm just throwing it
Speaker 1: out there like there hasn't been any like speculation. But
Speaker 1: the guy is what like forty if he wins the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, kind of like right off into the sunset,
Speaker 1: like he's getting close to the end. Drew Brees a lot.
Speaker 1: If he plays, he'll go ahead of Tom Brady Andrew
Speaker 1: Luck ahead of Tom Brady. He should be Jared Goff.
Speaker 1: Depends what happens the rest here, but you can buy
Speaker 1: into that offense than I thought he was, to be
Speaker 1: honest with him, Philip Rivers comes back and plays another year,
Speaker 1: you should go ahead of Tom Brady another year. What
Speaker 1: he's definitely playing another year. I mean, he's QB nine
Speaker 1: right now in Fantasy points and you should be seven
Speaker 1: overall on the season, not even close. He's way better
Speaker 1: than Tom Brady, Cam Newton. John Brady should not be
Speaker 1: a top ten quarterback draft days year he will. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I understand. Let me take some calls cool yes, eight
Speaker 1: four four, eight, four three six, eight seven nine. You
Speaker 1: mentioned him earlier as we called in it's Bob, what's up? Bobby? Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: are you doing good? How are you? He's not tired, Bob, Well, no,
Speaker 1: depressed that the Giant games. I thought they'd be playing
Speaker 1: veryin what they did, They're terrible. He should be happy.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't be depressed. You should be happy you move
Speaker 1: up in the draft. In the draft, and I'm happy
Speaker 1: the cowgirls get but thank too. That's right, they don't.
Speaker 1: It's been Greg. If you had to take a quarterback
Speaker 1: today and you're the Giants, who are you like? The
Speaker 1: latest that I've seen is Dwayne Haskins. The name that's
Speaker 1: like being I want the Giants to pick up what's
Speaker 1: his name? Why? Teddy Bridgewater? Why? Guy? He's a good
Speaker 1: core back. I'm with you on this one, Greg. I
Speaker 1: think he's a little bit overrated. If you just look
Speaker 1: at the numbers, he can be a game managing quarterback.
Speaker 1: I think where he's at right now, he is better
Speaker 1: than Eli Manning. I think that's fair. Same. So I
Speaker 1: don't think it's the worst idea that that Bob has here.
Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of people will be in on
Speaker 1: Teddy bridge Water, from the Jaguars to the Giants. Who
Speaker 1: you know, if Drew Brees are tires in the Saints,
Speaker 1: you're gonna want to bring him back. They're gonna there's
Speaker 1: a little quarterbacks, So there's gonna be a lot of
Speaker 1: people who want the services of Teddy Bridgewater. I'm with you.
Speaker 1: I think he's a little bit overrated from like a
Speaker 1: real life NFL perspective. He's a game managing quarterback. But
Speaker 1: I will say this, I do think he's better than
Speaker 1: Eli Manning at their respective stages of their careers. What's up, Bob?
Speaker 1: Because the Giants are gonna start elite in the right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the quarterback did not go to draft a quarterback. Idiots
Speaker 1: pick him up. Get I Rather, they had a great
Speaker 1: opportunity to get them before the Saints picked him up. Sure,
Speaker 1: he was right next door. Do you know do you know, Bob,
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater's career high for touchdowns throne in a season?
Speaker 1: Do you have an idea? No? I think it's but
Speaker 1: it's good. I think you keep telling me he's good.
Speaker 1: But do you know how many touchdowns is the most
Speaker 1: he thrown in a single season? On the dot? Because
Speaker 1: I've looked this up a judge taster before the season. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's a game managing quarterback. I don't want Teddy Rigora.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's the worst idea, though, I don't
Speaker 1: want but here if you're if you're the who's the
Speaker 1: other guy? Us to bring back David Carr. He's been
Speaker 1: a giant Derek, he's better than Teddy bridge Water. But
Speaker 1: want the contract Derrek Carr with that contract? Want to
Speaker 1: draft in a weird spot to draft a quarterback? No,
Speaker 1: you're idiots. We appreciate Greg, Bob, we appreciate, appreciate the
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to go. Thank you, guys have a
Speaker 1: great day. Like, yeah, I like your outfit. Thank you.
Speaker 1: I appreciate that I look good. Thank you. I like that.
Speaker 1: I guess like that too. Won't come to dress you're
Speaker 1: you're dressed like Bob, Bob, we appreciate you. Bivona, whoever's
Speaker 1: down there, please help us out here. Um Eli Manning,
Speaker 1: What do you do if you're the giants? Right? Because
Speaker 1: he's been with the organization organization for so long, if
Speaker 1: he's not ready to retire, what do you do? Can
Speaker 1: you just cut him? Can you do that after everything
Speaker 1: he's done? Yes, I don't. I don't know if they'll
Speaker 1: do it. It's you passed it last year they went
Speaker 1: through the disasters. Yes you can. According to gettiman Eliman
Speaker 1: has years left place. Not get him that said that
Speaker 1: way today. Actually I'm pretty sure get him and have
Speaker 1: said that that was last year. Yeah sure, I actually
Speaker 1: said that today. So these are going great with the
Speaker 1: giants Western California, Europe. Next was of West Good morning everybody.
Speaker 1: That's going on in Not much man, just uh, feeling
Speaker 1: good going on going into tonight. Um, I'm in a
Speaker 1: family league, two D fifty dollar family league, and um
Speaker 1: my brother in law having spoke to him for the
Speaker 1: past for the past month, because you know, I was
Speaker 1: just sharing feedback in regards to you know, uffh stuff
Speaker 1: about the league. You know, things that you know, you know,
Speaker 1: suggestions to make changes and that kind of stuff, like
Speaker 1: for example, he had a limit all way for wire
Speaker 1: ads um and for the league. And then Um also
Speaker 1: spoke about like how he was the top player and
Speaker 1: he was the player that was didn't have no chance
Speaker 1: to make it up to the playoffs. He was trading
Speaker 1: that the bottom player was trading the top players to him,
Speaker 1: and I had said something about didn't he got all
Speaker 1: pissy about it, and uh, he said to me that
Speaker 1: you know, um whatever, you know, it's like uh uh,
Speaker 1: like nothing was happening. And he said that he can't wait,
Speaker 1: he can't wait to beat my ass in the playoffs.
Speaker 1: So I played him today, uh, yesterday, right now. I
Speaker 1: got a fifty two point lead ahead of him, and
Speaker 1: and he has one player or left to play to
Speaker 1: Cam Newton. He ended up picking up Damian Williams and
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry off the waiver, but he set them both
Speaker 1: on the bench. Oh the sweet Justice. It can't wait
Speaker 1: to beat your ass. There's no better way if you
Speaker 1: have like a rival in real life, a family member,
Speaker 1: whatever it might be, a league mate who's talking trash.
Speaker 1: And you know what, West, I don't uh, I don't
Speaker 1: disagree with anything that you did, by the way, because
Speaker 1: if you're not only the commissioner of the league, but
Speaker 1: your first place in the league, and you're trading with
Speaker 1: people on the bottom of your league, like you should
Speaker 1: know better than that. So you had every right to
Speaker 1: call him out, obviously. And I remember when you called
Speaker 1: in earlier in the year, you were you were debating
Speaker 1: Shawn Jeffrey and Kiki QT and that was because you
Speaker 1: had waiver limits for the season like that shouldn't be
Speaker 1: a thing in fantasy like, dude, it's come next to
Speaker 1: year like fantasy football, Like we should not not have
Speaker 1: limits on the amount of waivers that we should play.
Speaker 1: So I actually agree, like if you brought it up,
Speaker 1: like positive constructive criticism, like, hey, this is what I
Speaker 1: think should be different about the league, Like, dude, have
Speaker 1: some thicker skin, like listen to the people who are
Speaker 1: in your league and actually try and make a league better.
Speaker 1: But to go out there and you're up fifty and
Speaker 1: he has Cam Newton left, it looks like you have
Speaker 1: it in the bag. I'm not gonna say it's guaranteed,
Speaker 1: but it sure looks great for you. That is an awesome,
Speaker 1: awesome feeling for us. Also, you know, you guys have
Speaker 1: been very helpful, so I just want to thank you
Speaker 1: guys very much. I also made a tough decision the
Speaker 1: hashtags steff the name off the back of da Go
Speaker 1: I sat. I sat Aaron Rodgers yes yesterday, which was
Speaker 1: the toughest decision I made this season. And I started
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson again. Uh you know, well, I played late
Speaker 1: Alsha and Jeffrey just like you remember he did well
Speaker 1: last night, and I traded away. I traded traded away
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt this past season and picked up Dalvin cook
Speaker 1: Um for this for this part of the season, and
Speaker 1: it worked out for me. So you know, it looks
Speaker 1: like I'm pretty much headed into the final. So I'm
Speaker 1: a little stoked about that. I got a lot of, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, critic criticism in regards to a couple of
Speaker 1: the trades I made earlier during the season, but you know,
Speaker 1: it's got me in the finals. So I'm ecstatic right now.
Speaker 1: There you go, that's some job. We appreciate us, we do.
Speaker 1: We appreciate you. We appreciate everybody watching us on YouTube today.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. The Frenzies up next with Corey,
Speaker 1: Chris and Jim. Listening to the podcast, subscribe like rateus
Speaker 1: five stars, please live a comment and if you're listening
Speaker 1: lot on the radio, we have another three minutes ago.
Speaker 1: Right with those three minutes, It's Carolina. It's New Orleans tonight,
Speaker 1: Monday Night football from Carolina. What's this friend in this one?
Speaker 1: Believe the last time I checked it was the Carolina
Speaker 1: Panthers were getting six and a half at home as
Speaker 1: home dogs. Up right now out on the FanDuel sports book,
Speaker 1: like Carolina with that that number getting six, I'll take
Speaker 1: Carolina this I look at it at seven, but I'll
Speaker 1: take Carolina at six. Yeah, this is and this is
Speaker 1: a tough one because you know, both teams are not
Speaker 1: playing great right now. And I guess if you just
Speaker 1: use that and you're looking at it like both teams
Speaker 1: aren't playing great, they're just kind of both stumbling into
Speaker 1: this Monday night football game. Obviously, Carolina's backs are against
Speaker 1: the wall right now, they're six and seven, they've lost
Speaker 1: five games in a row. You're getting a little bit
Speaker 1: of value here with the Carolina Panthers. The divisional games
Speaker 1: are usually closer. Would it surprised me one bit if
Speaker 1: the Saints come out here and this is like the
Speaker 1: get right game because the Panthers secondary hadn't been great
Speaker 1: all season long, that wouldn't surprise me. I think the
Speaker 1: over is the plan to night's game. Greg at fifty
Speaker 1: points makes sense. So they were talking about that on
Speaker 1: the morning show. How we see a lot of these
Speaker 1: totals right now in the mid fifties. Uh, And you
Speaker 1: know you're getting the Saints right now and the Panthers,
Speaker 1: Panthers defense not playing well. So I do think that
Speaker 1: we get some points scored in this game. Man, I
Speaker 1: just feel like everybody's on the Panthers right now, Like
Speaker 1: everybody you talk to, everybody, he's on the Panthers right now.
Speaker 1: It wouldn't surprise me if this is like to get
Speaker 1: right game for the Saints. I don't really want to
Speaker 1: touch the spread, but I do think. I do think
Speaker 1: this game goes over the number at fifty right for me,
Speaker 1: I look at this game. The New Orleans stats aren't
Speaker 1: the same team in Carolina. Carolina has really really struggled
Speaker 1: over the past several weeks, really over the past month.
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. I realized Cam is not
Speaker 1: a thousand percent healthy. I don't even know if he's
Speaker 1: fifty percent healthy. Um, he's not there right now. He's
Speaker 1: dealing with the shoulder. So you know, ultimately those people
Speaker 1: who are you know you're going up against CMC tonight,
Speaker 1: just kind of holding your bread. One of my leagues
Speaker 1: is that it's like that and it's close to because
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's the matchup of well, he's getting so
Speaker 1: much work, especially down near the goal line. I mean,
Speaker 1: the guy has played every single snap in in every
Speaker 1: game for like the past five six games, Like he
Speaker 1: has not missed a single snap. So it's really the
Speaker 1: matchup of you know, the Saints have been good against
Speaker 1: running backs all season long. Yep, they've struggled against the past.
Speaker 1: I know, you know their defense has gotten better over
Speaker 1: the past month or so, but really they've been stout
Speaker 1: against the run all season long. So those people who
Speaker 1: have fantasy matchups on the line with going up against
Speaker 1: CMC tonight, I mean, you're just kind of holding your breath.
Speaker 1: But you know I do think that, um yeah, just
Speaker 1: the spread over role worries me. The Panthers, I played
Speaker 1: better at home there four and two a t s
Speaker 1: against the spread at home this season, um. But on
Speaker 1: the season overall, the Saints ten and three, ten and
Speaker 1: three against the spread, Greg, So it doesn't matter, Like
Speaker 1: even on the road, there's six and one on the road,
Speaker 1: So you and I know a lot of those were
Speaker 1: like where they were getting they were laying like seven
Speaker 1: points on the road against teams, but they had that
Speaker 1: stretch where they were blowing everyone out by like seventeen
Speaker 1: twenty one point um. But the Saints are not the
Speaker 1: same as they were during that stretch. So it'll be
Speaker 1: interesting tonight. I think I think Michael Thomas is obviously
Speaker 1: in a good spot here Panthers secondary. That's the way
Speaker 1: to attack that him, Alvin Kamara mark Ingram. There's been
Speaker 1: a little bit of volatility there in terms of like
Speaker 1: who who can you trust? Obviously Kamara is the guy. Um,
Speaker 1: we'll see ste what happens. Good Luck to everyone out
Speaker 1: there who's still because there are a lot of fantasy
Speaker 1: implications in this game. Soon breeze the running backs, Michael Thomas,
Speaker 1: Ham Newton Pants wide receivers, Christian McCaffrey. Who lucked everyone
Speaker 1: out there? Man take the over. It'll be fun. One
Speaker 1: the night for Frank staff On, Greg Susman. The frenzy
Speaker 1: is up next. Good luck tonight. We'll see you tomorrow,
Speaker 1: we hope.
