But before he gets on, it 0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:19.000 sounds like, as usual, the phone lines are lighting up 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:22.920 for the Fantasy Freestyle. We got Josh in Wisconsin. He's 0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:25.039 got a little bit too much talent. He doesn't know 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:27.520 who to sit for Week one eight. Josh, you're on 0:05:27.560 --> 0:05:29.920 the Fantasy Freestyle, dropping stats over beats with speeds and 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:34.839 spitting statistician. What's your question, man, it's what's going on? Baby? 0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:38.800 How are you doing? Doing good? Doing good? I had 0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:41.640 a couple of rapid fire questions for you right away. Sure, 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:46.320 so I got my pen and paper. I'm ready. I 0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:48.720 like that. I like the nineties beats on the break dude, Um, 0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:53.600 real quick? White or mixing? Which White? Are we talking about? 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:59.919 Kevin White? James White? Three out of four questions for you, 0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:05.920 So James White or mixing? Um? Listen these Patriot running backs, man, 0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:08.400 it's real tough on a week to week basis to 0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:10.760 know which Patriots running back is gonna pop off as 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:14.279 it James White, Gillies, Ley Burkehead, or even Dion Lewis. 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:17.360 I'm taking a weight and see approach with the Patriots 0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:19.799 running backs. I think Joe Mixon is the guy dripping 0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:22.240 with upside and if you need to, you know, take 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:24.240 a home run hit. I think Joe Mixon is the 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:27.760 one who could return you incredible value this week. I 0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:29.719 like like mixing now, James White could be the guy, 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:32.520 but Bill Belichick has made a career about making fantasy 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.239 football owners piste off. I stay away from the Patriots 0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:39.240 running backs. What's your other question? Man? Right on three 0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:41.360 out of four, it's a full point PPR. I got 0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:49.240 Diggs prior McCaffrey and Hunt. Digs prior McCaffrey and Hunt. 0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:52.880 You say right, and we're keeping three, we're casting aside. 0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:54.719 One we're on and one off the island. Let me 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.040 tell you something, um, and it's in a PPR league 0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:59.360 and that's important context. Okay. I like both of the 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:02.120 wide outs in that situation. Okay, I think Stefon Diggs 0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:05.080 has the potential to get twelve thirteen targets in that game. 0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:07.720 And they're playing against the New Orleans Past defense, which 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:10.800 is straight blunt, guts trash. It is do do. So 0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:13.440 I like Stefon Diggs there definitely. When it comes to 0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:15.880 Terrell Prior, I like t Rrell Prior in this situation. 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:17.480 I don't know if you heard, but the other wide 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:20.800 receiver from Washington, Jamison Crowder, was just added to the 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.560 injury report late in the week, just today with a 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:26.239 hip issue. Okay, so that makes me like Prior even 0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:29.640 more so. Diggs and Prior are definitely in there. Okay. 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:33.160 When it comes down to McCaffrey or Hunt, here's the thing. 0:07:33.880 --> 0:07:37.440 Here's the thing. I think Kareem Hunt. I think Kareem 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:40.600 Hunt tonight is gonna get more of the share in Carolina. 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:43.080 I love McCaffrey, but I think I'm gonna take a 0:07:43.120 --> 0:07:45.480 minute to see how that how that settles. Also, they're 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:48.000 trying to change the offense a little bit, cam Newton 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.040 getting the ball out a little quicker. I think it's 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:51.920 gonna be great for McCaffrey, but I want to see 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:54.640 how that plays out. So I'm going Diggs, Prior and 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:58.080 Kareem Hunt. Okay, And thank you for the shout out 0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:01.040 on our beach. You are welcome to call act anytime. 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:03.280 My man. All right, it sounds like though we do 0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:06.240 in fact have Jason Robbins on the launch. Jason is 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:09.920 the CEO of DraftKings. Thank you so much for joining 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:13.040 Fantasy Freestyle. How's it going there? You're getting ready for 0:08:13.040 --> 0:08:18.320 the season opener? Hot, Jason? Oh yeah, today's an exciting day. 0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:20.720 I'm sure it is. I'm sure it is. It's gotta 0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:24.160 be a huge day on the Draft Kings calendar, right, 0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:27.640 I mean that's my first question for you, Jason, Like, truly, 0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:31.560 how much of a spike do you guys see over 0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:34.000 at DraftKings for the start of football season? I mean, 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:36.920 football has to be like your main you know, your 0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:39.200 main season. This has gotta be like waking up on 0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:42.319 Christmas morning seeing the beginning of football. Just how big 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.640 is football relative to some of the other sports on 0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:50.200 DraftKings You've pretty much nailed it. I've been watching the 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.800 stats all day. I've been hooked on watching them, and 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.320 numbers keep going up. It's a great day. The first 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:58.400 Thursday in the first Sunday are usually the two biggest 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:01.280 customer acquisition days year. We're gonna add about a hundred 0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:05.959 thousand new registrants today, um, probably even more on Sunday. 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.520 And you know, this is the fun time. This is 0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:10.920 when all the numbers are going up. Everybody's excited and 0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:14.640 it's a good time because I'm a sports fan, football 0:09:14.720 --> 0:09:17.600 fan too, so I get double benefit of being excited 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:19.520 about the football season and it being a big day 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:22.880 for draft teams. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, Like who is your team, Jason, 0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:28.480 who's your team? Well, we're based in Boston, kind of 0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:32.760 probably guess the Patriots, But fair enough. You know, I 0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:35.960 like all football and I'm a fantasy player, so whoever 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:37.800 is on my fantasy That's what I was just gonna say. 0:09:38.360 --> 0:09:40.520 I like, that's what I was gonna ask you share 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:42.839 more for the Patriots, for your fantasy team or for 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:45.160 your line up in Draft Kings, which which is your 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:48.880 true allegiance. Okay, alright, fair enough. Let me ask you something. 0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:51.960 Always you mentioned that you guys are gonna add like 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:56.680 hundreds of thousands of new users just in this weekend. Okay, 0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:59.160 so as not only the CEO of Draft Kings, but 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.920 like you said, a fantasy football player yourself, what kind 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.920 of advice would you give the first time player, someone 0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:08.280 who's just dipping their toe in the waters of daily Fantasy. 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:10.720 You know, should they started maybe like a cash game 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:12.760 or a head to head, or go straight to some 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:15.280 of the g PPS, some of the big tournaments out there. 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:18.280 What advice would you have for someone who's just getting 0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:21.400 started with Daily Fantasy, one of these new hundred thousand 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:26.200 people that were just added today to your site. Oh, 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.280 you're probably a lot better guy to be asking that 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:30.560 than me, but I'll give it a shot. I think 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.240 it depends on your goals. If you're looking to, you know, 0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:35.960 play for a few bucks and try to win a 0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:38.040 big score, and you're gonna want to focus on the 0:10:38.080 --> 0:10:40.880 big guaranteed price pool. If you're looking to kind of 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.640 practice and get to know the game and you know, 0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:47.760 maybe make you know, smaller kinda winds if you win 0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:51.560 but a bit more steadiness, then I would focus on 0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:54.480 playing the double ups or fifties or head to head. 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.960 So it really depends on what your goal is, all right. 0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:00.199 I guess it depends on how risk averse you are 0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:02.920 as an individual. But if you're on draft kings wager 0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:04.440 and you got to have a little bit of action 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:06.760 on it, and it sounds like this is good time 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:09.680 of the year for Draft Kings. Let me ask you something, Jason, 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:12.960 because I saw over on DraftKings you guys are offering 0:11:13.240 --> 0:11:17.640 not a thousand, not even a million, but a billion 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:20.240 with a B. I feel like dr evil. You know, 0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:24.080 it's even saying that you're offering a billion dollars to 0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:28.360 someone if they can get the perfect lineup. Hey, Jason, 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:30.199 why don't you tell us about that fun contest you 0:11:30.240 --> 0:11:35.959 guys are doing. Uh, this is the biggest contest we 0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:38.800 would ever run. And you know the basic gist. It 0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:44.160 is totally free to enter, so no news. Existing players 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:46.920 just kind of wanter. It's no cost um. There's a 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:49.920 hundred thousand and guarantee prizes no matter what happened. So 0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:52.080 about a hundred thousand people are going to be getting 0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:55.480 something hid into their account for doing well. And then 0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:57.560 if you hit the perfect lineup, you win a billion 0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:00.240 dollars and it's fully insured, so don't worry. We're not 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:03.080 taking the risk ourselves. We got a number of different 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:07.600 insurance companies to back it, so you know, it's pretty exciting. Obviously, 0:12:07.640 --> 0:12:10.880 it's very difficult. Takes a ton of skill to be 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:14.120 able to pick the perfect lineup. But if you do it, 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:16.640 you get a billion dollars, which is I'm sure enough 0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:19.280 to stay pretty amazing sum of money for anybody to win. 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:21.920 Sure you said it, just it was free to enter 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.240 that contest, right so I like my return on investment, 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:26.600 might as well going over, might as well gone over 0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:28.560 to Draft Kings. Right now, I'm gonna throw in a 0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:31.040 lineup and Jamesons. If you want to know the billion 0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.320 dollar perfect line up, all you gotta do is tune 0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:35.960 into Fantasy Freestyle tomorrow, man, and I'm gonna be giving 0:12:35.960 --> 0:12:37.880 it out for you. I'm gonna be giving it out 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:39.640 for you. Let me ask you this because we've heard 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:42.120 so much in the fantasy community about the back and 0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:45.080 forth with um all of these dfs and different states. 0:12:45.240 --> 0:12:47.440 I got a listener that asked me. His name is 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.599 Taco and Alabama. He said he's been going through withdrawal 0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:53.160 from Draft Kings for like two years. You know, he 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:55.800 really wants to play. Where are we right now in 0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:57.800 some of the different states as a state by state 0:12:57.880 --> 0:12:59.800 kind of thing. I'm here in New York and it was, 0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:01.880 you know, it was off the radar for a few 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.959 months last year. Where do we stand right now? So 0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:07.520 that our players know what they can do, what they 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:09.800 can't do, where they can deposit, where they can play 0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:14.920 all that. Where are we standing right now, Jason? Well, 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:18.480 right now, there's forty one states where you can play DraftKings, 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:22.000 and unfortunately Alabama is and one. I'm actually saw that, guys. 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:25.320 We just saw that tac Taco in Alabama. Yeah, I mean, 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:28.120 how you're gonna forget taco on exactly exactly I saw that, 0:13:28.240 --> 0:13:31.440 but unfortunately not yet. Now a b we're working on it. 0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:34.720 We have some legislation. It's actives, so something you're passionate 0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:38.120 about you can help. Yeah, send, send, send a note 0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:41.040 and email will make it really easy to do your legislator, 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:43.920 get your friends to do it. Let them know you care. Um, 0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:45.880 let them know this should be a priority for them 0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:48.600 in the next legislative session. We'd love to go back 0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:51.480 to Alabama. It was really disappointing for us that we 0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:55.240 ended up having to exit that state. It's great state, 0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:59.000 great sports fans, and looking forward to hopefully getting something 0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:00.920 done in the in the what slater and getting back 0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:03.280 up and running in Alabama. Yeah. Absolutely, Jason. Hey, my 0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:05.280 last question because I know we're up against it, but um, 0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:07.640 thank you so much for joining Fantasy Freestyle, But Jason, 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:10.000 what's next on the horizon for DraftKings? You know you 0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:12.200 got the billion Dollar Game? There any other fun contests 0:14:12.240 --> 0:14:15.120 out there? I know, my man? Uh you know Mayo 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:17.520 is joining you guys and sometimes soon what about like 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:21.200 DFS Bachelor or DFS Politics. What's next? What's next one 0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:25.960 you guys branch out of from football? Oh? Man, I 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:28.120 don't know, ye haven't you know? We've talked about doing 0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:30.920 different types of games like that right now or take 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.200 in the sports, but you know it's in the future. 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:35.000 The latest thing we did is we launched a new 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:37.480 game called Pick Them. And the reason we want to 0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:39.320 pick them is we're getting a lot of feedback from 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:41.320 people if they wanted to try it, but they didn't 0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:43.360 like to be on with the salary cap and you 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:45.320 put a player in and then you're over and you 0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:47.080 don't pick who you want. You gotta take them out, 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:49.240 and it was just annoying for people, and a lot 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.520 of people like if it's something, so the pick Them 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.400 game by the same idea, you pick some players, you 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:56.640 get to score team, I think, but instead of having 0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:59.880 salary caps, we've created tears of players. So you just 0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:01.520 go and you have a list that I gotta pick 0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:03.160 one of the ten guys. I gotta pick one of 0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:05.520 the easy guys. And you go down the list and 0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:08.800 picking the group together players that would be a similar salaries. 0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:11.600 So you're picking from a similar set of people. Um, 0:15:11.640 --> 0:15:14.560 So it kind of effectively balances the salary cap for 0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:17.680 you and you don't have to worry with tears than play. 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:21.800 But yeah, it's great because it involves just as much skill, 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:24.680 but it's easier for especially a new player to be 0:15:24.720 --> 0:15:26.560 able to come in and figure out and play. It's 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:29.960 just picking players and not worrying about the salary cap. Alright, awesome, 0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:31.480 And let me ask you this. You say your last 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:33.480 question for you, Jason, and thanks so much for stopping 0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:35.600 by the cipher here on Fantasy Freestyle, you said you're 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.480 a fantasy football player yourself. You're out there for Pat's chiefs. 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:40.640 Which Patriots chiefs do you have in your line of 0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:45.120 trying to win a billion dollars? Well, you know it's 0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:47.720 tough to play. Gronk Todays got Eric Berry on him. 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.880 I think he will. Um, I think Brady is gonna 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:52.400 have a big game. It's hard to say that he's 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:54.400 gonna throw it too. But who's gonna fill that Julian 0:15:54.520 --> 0:15:56.640 Edelman role? Come on, Jason, we need your inside. Who's 0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:59.400 filling that role? Is it? Mitchell is one of the 0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:03.600 running back Well, Mitchell just got put on the I R. 0:16:03.800 --> 0:16:06.680 So not Amon Dola. Give me a little Danny, Ammon Dola. 0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:11.040 Emmon Dolah is probably the best. You know, Hogan's more 0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:13.040 of a deep threat, thank you, am and Dola is 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.640 probably the best bet to fill that. I also think 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:17.840 they could lean on James White a bit in this game. 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:20.520 He was cheap on DraftKings, and he's a guy that 0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:23.360 had an incredible Super Bowl, I mean one for the ages. 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:25.760 He was arguably if Grady didn't do what he did 0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:28.040 the m v P at that game. And you know 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:30.080 he's a player that can catch a lot of passes 0:16:30.120 --> 0:16:31.600 out of the back heeld. So I think they might 0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:33.680 be leaning on him a lot without their slot guys 0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:36.720 the full strength. All right, fair enough, This is Jason Robbins, 0:16:36.760 --> 0:16:40.680 the CEO of DraftKings, telling us about the billion dollar 0:16:40.800 --> 0:16:43.760 contest for the perfect lineup and all things going on 0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:46.640 on DraftKings into including some of the little mini tournaments 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:48.960 that he's got going on. Thank you so much for 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:52.080 stopping by the show, Jason. After I win my million dollars, 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:57.560 can I invoice you directly? You mean you're billion? Right? Hey, listen, 0:16:57.560 --> 0:16:59.680 I'm gonna start small with a million dollar maker, and 0:16:59.680 --> 0:17:01.560 then I'll get to the bill, you know. Okay, baby, staff, 0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:03.640 you gotta crawl before you could walk. Jason, thought you 0:17:03.680 --> 0:17:06.760 were gonna give out the winning lineup tomorrow. Hey, listen, listen, 0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:08.560 I can still win a million dollars and not have 0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:11.680 the perfect lineup for the billion. You know, Listen, I'll 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:13.880 take a million. I'll be jes fine with that. Don't 0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:17.399 worry about it. I'll be happy winning my fifty fifty contest. 0:17:17.440 --> 0:17:21.320 You getting me? Well, if you win a million or 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:23.680 a billion, yeah, you can invoice me directly.

Jason said that there's gonna be 0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:56.080 about a hundred thousand people that have registered today alone, 0:20:56.400 --> 0:20:59.520 and they expect that number to increase over the weekend 0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:02.399 of Week one. And as you heard, if you have 0:21:02.520 --> 0:21:06.480 the perfect lineup on DraftKings this week, you can win 0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:11.359 one billion dollars.

I gotta write them down 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:29.320 so I could give you the advice you need. We're 0:21:29.359 --> 0:21:32.640 gonna get it started with some callers in this segment.

Chris, 0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:37.480 he's got a question about some wide receivers who he 0:21:37.520 --> 0:21:40.720 should start. Um, if you're still on there, Casey, you 0:21:40.800 --> 0:21:43.800 are dropping stats over beats on the fantasy freestyle with speeds. 0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:48.600 What's your question? Hey?

I got 0:22:15.520 --> 0:22:19.320 Eric Decker, Keenan Allen in a in a tough matchup 0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:25.200 Tyreek Hill or Terence West, which one of them would 0:22:25.720 --> 0:22:28.200 you keep on your bench? All right, so you're gonna 0:22:28.200 --> 0:22:32.760 play three of them and have to sit one of them, yes, sir, 0:22:33.359 --> 0:22:35.199 all right, fair enough. Well, I'm gonna tell you right 0:22:35.240 --> 0:22:38.120 now it is not Tyreek Hill. I like Tyreek Hill. 0:22:38.160 --> 0:22:40.439 In tonight's game. I actually think the loss of spencil 0:22:40.480 --> 0:22:42.760 wear means Andy Reid and the Chiefs are gonna try 0:22:42.800 --> 0:22:44.760 and get the ball into Tyreek Hill's hands a little 0:22:44.760 --> 0:22:46.880 bit more, maybe even in the running game. And you said, 0:22:46.920 --> 0:22:49.840 it's a standard league. So those Jets sweeps, those end arounds, 0:22:49.880 --> 0:22:52.600 those wildcats that might happen with Tyreek Hill will help 0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:57.200 you out. So I really like that. Um, the rest 0:22:57.280 --> 0:23:00.240 of them is tough, Okay, Keenan Allen, as you engine, 0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:02.440 they're up against the Broncos on Monday Night Football, and 0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:05.879 the Broncos, you know, those Broncos cornerbacks or Chris Harris Jr. 0:23:06.080 --> 0:23:08.800 Keep to lead and the crew. Those those guys are 0:23:08.840 --> 0:23:11.440 no joke, right, So that's that's tough, and I could 0:23:11.440 --> 0:23:14.840 see that limiting the potential of Keenan Allen especially. There's 0:23:14.880 --> 0:23:17.680 some other wide outs that Philip Rivers likes to go to, Um, 0:23:17.960 --> 0:23:20.560 Eric Decker. You know the thing is, if you have 0:23:20.680 --> 0:23:22.720 him on your team, right, you want to only play 0:23:22.880 --> 0:23:25.200 like you're hoping he stays healthy. He this is the 0:23:25.240 --> 0:23:27.800 healthiest he's gonna be all season, right, So I'd say 0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:29.840 you might as well run out Eric Decker because that 0:23:29.920 --> 0:23:33.000 Oakland's past defense that they're going up against is nothing 0:23:33.119 --> 0:23:35.560 to write home about. So I think Eric Decker might 0:23:35.640 --> 0:23:37.760 be able to eat, especially in the red zone. Eric 0:23:37.840 --> 0:23:40.720 Decker does catch touchdowns, Okay. Even when he was with 0:23:40.800 --> 0:23:42.960 the Jets, he caught touchdowns, so I think that's a 0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:44.880 good bet. So I'm looking at Eric Decker, I'm looking 0:23:44.880 --> 0:23:46.879 at Tyreek Hill. For me, the one to sit a 0:23:46.880 --> 0:23:50.560 is either between Keenan Allen or Terence West. However, I 0:23:50.600 --> 0:23:53.600 would play West Okay, generally, I think Terrence West is 0:23:53.680 --> 0:23:56.480 just a guy and nothing special. But you talked about 0:23:56.520 --> 0:23:58.440 it as a as a standard league, so we're not 0:23:58.440 --> 0:24:00.840 worried about any catches that al And gets. And I 0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:03.560 think that would Flacco, having just come back and not 0:24:03.720 --> 0:24:05.639 having built that kind of rapport with some of his 0:24:05.760 --> 0:24:09.200 new Whiteouts, specifically Jeremy Macklin and Danny Woodhead, I think 0:24:09.240 --> 0:24:12.120 that they may try to run the ball down Cincinnati's throat. 0:24:12.240 --> 0:24:14.560 So I would go with Decker, Hill and Weston. I 0:24:14.560 --> 0:24:17.480 would leave Keenan Allen out because of the Broncos secondary 0:24:17.760 --> 0:24:19.840 that can shut them down. But thanks for the love 0:24:19.920 --> 0:24:23.040 and thanks for the call, Casey and Tennessee. You're welcome anytime. 0:24:23.119 --> 0:24:24.679 Even if I got that one wrong, you can come 0:24:24.720 --> 0:24:27.440 on back and tell me how wrong it was. Hey, Chris, 0:24:27.560 --> 0:24:29.680 it looks like we got Chris in Chicago on the 0:24:29.760 --> 0:24:32.400 line as well. Chris in Chicago. It looks like he's 0:24:32.440 --> 0:24:35.400 the siding between two pretty good quarterbacks. Hey, Chris, you're 0:24:35.400 --> 0:24:39.639 on the Fantasy Freestyle. What's up? Yes sir, Yes, sir? 0:24:39.800 --> 0:24:42.040 What's going on? How you doing? I can't call it, man, 0:24:42.119 --> 0:24:47.120 It's a Thursday. I'm excited for some football, Yes sir, Yes, sir? 0:24:48.880 --> 0:24:53.240 What's your question? Man? Talking to try trying to think. 0:24:53.480 --> 0:24:55.800 I got two questions? All right, Uh? Should I start 0:24:55.920 --> 0:25:00.720 Drew Brees or um? Then big being against Cleveland and 0:25:00.800 --> 0:25:04.760 you know Brees is going against Minnesota. Yeah, yep, yeah. 0:25:04.800 --> 0:25:07.040 So first of all, I mean, that's a kind that's 0:25:07.080 --> 0:25:10.159 one of those good problems to have. Okay, hashtag m 0:25:10.280 --> 0:25:12.240 v P problems. You know what I'm saying. Like, both 0:25:12.320 --> 0:25:14.520 of these guys I think are primed to put up 0:25:14.600 --> 0:25:17.200 big time production. Okay, if so, I don't think he 0:25:17.280 --> 0:25:19.520 can really go wrong either way. The what I will 0:25:19.600 --> 0:25:21.359 tell you, though, if I have to pick one of 0:25:21.440 --> 0:25:23.399 those two, I'm going with Drew Brees. I'm going with 0:25:23.480 --> 0:25:25.480 Drew Brees because I think he's locked and loaded for 0:25:25.560 --> 0:25:28.720 three hundred yards. The fear with Ben, and it's not 0:25:28.800 --> 0:25:30.960 a problem with him, but the fear with Ben is 0:25:31.040 --> 0:25:33.520 that the Steelers might get up too big in that 0:25:33.680 --> 0:25:35.880 game against the Cleveland Browns and then try to run 0:25:35.960 --> 0:25:37.840 the ball a lot and run out the clock in 0:25:37.920 --> 0:25:40.160 the second half of that game. That's what I would 0:25:40.160 --> 0:25:42.840 be concerned about. Whereas I know, Drew Brees is gonna 0:25:42.920 --> 0:25:46.280 throw the ball left, right, and center, regardless of the score, 0:25:46.359 --> 0:25:48.800 regardless of the game flow, Drew Brees is gonna put 0:25:48.840 --> 0:25:50.920 it up forty times. The thing I might be worried 0:25:50.920 --> 0:25:52.840 about with Ben is they get up and try and 0:25:52.920 --> 0:25:55.200 run them the clock out against Cleveland in that opener. 0:25:55.240 --> 0:25:57.760 So I'm going Drew Brees in that situation. What's your 0:25:57.760 --> 0:26:02.439 other question? Man? Cool? Cool? Cool? Cool? All right? So, uh, 0:26:03.160 --> 0:26:08.960 Marshaw Lynch or Robert Kelly the start yep Uh? In 0:26:09.200 --> 0:26:11.600 that one, I'm going beast mode. I'm going beast mode there. 0:26:11.600 --> 0:26:14.200 I'm going Marshawn Lynch. And here's why I remember a 0:26:14.320 --> 0:26:15.840 lot of things. I look at. I'm gonna tell you, 0:26:15.880 --> 0:26:17.720 I'm gonna let you into my mind here, Chris, I 0:26:17.880 --> 0:26:19.720 I look at the game floor. Remember I told you 0:26:19.800 --> 0:26:22.320 with the Ben Roethlisberger Steelers might be up big in 0:26:22.359 --> 0:26:24.160 the second half and then running the ball a little 0:26:24.160 --> 0:26:26.880 bit more with the Washington football team and fat Rob 0:26:27.000 --> 0:26:30.200 Kelly like, whoa, I think the Washington'm down on Washington 0:26:30.320 --> 0:26:32.800 and I'm high on Philly. Okay. I think Washington is 0:26:32.800 --> 0:26:34.840 gonna be down in this game. And that means Kirk 0:26:34.880 --> 0:26:36.760 Cousins is gonna be throwing the ball. And when the 0:26:36.840 --> 0:26:39.560 Washington football team throws the ball, it is chrisms Thompson 0:26:39.640 --> 0:26:42.640 on the field as the past catching back, not Rob Kelly. 0:26:42.920 --> 0:26:45.200 Rob Kelly is that early down back, and I just 0:26:45.320 --> 0:26:47.359 don't think that that's the way the game script is 0:26:47.440 --> 0:26:50.440 gonna play out. Marshawn Lynch, on another hand, they're gonna 0:26:50.480 --> 0:26:53.440 look to, in my opinion, established him early as the 0:26:53.560 --> 0:26:56.800 new toy there in Oakland against Tennessee. I think lynches 0:26:56.840 --> 0:26:59.399 in line, especially early in the season, early in games, 0:26:59.440 --> 0:27:01.440 for a bunch of carries. And I don't think Rob 0:27:01.520 --> 0:27:03.200 Kelly is gonna be on the field that much in 0:27:03.240 --> 0:27:05.760 the second half because Washington might be playing catch up 0:27:05.760 --> 0:27:08.280 to Philadelphia in my opinion. So I'm going with Drew 0:27:08.400 --> 0:27:10.760 Brees and your first question, and I'm going with beast 0:27:10.880 --> 0:27:13.119 mode in your second question. But Chris, thank you for 0:27:13.200 --> 0:27:15.840 the call. Hope those Bears do alright With Rabinsky and 0:27:15.880 --> 0:27:18.480 Glennon under center. We got time for one or two 0:27:18.520 --> 0:27:22.159 more callers. We got Jimmy and Olympia on the line.

Um, I dropped Spencer where to 0:27:43.840 --> 0:27:47.400 pick up Dak Prescott? Uh to cover for Andrew Luck? 0:27:48.040 --> 0:27:52.280 Now I have more receivers than I do uh back, 0:27:52.920 --> 0:27:55.920 and I just want to know, um, which one of 0:27:55.960 --> 0:27:59.120 these receivers should I drop for any of the running backs? 0:27:59.240 --> 0:28:00.720 Or if I should just keep my team the way 0:28:00.760 --> 0:28:07.760 it is. Um, My receiving core is Antonio Brown, Terrell Prior, 0:28:08.760 --> 0:28:14.280 Um Stefon Diggs, um Kelvin Benjamin and Golden Tape.

The Champ is in the building giving 0:29:21.720 --> 0:29:24.040 you my predictions. Now, let me tell you something. Okay, 0:29:24.240 --> 0:29:26.440 if you were listening to Fantasy Freestyle at the beginning 0:29:26.440 --> 0:29:29.920 of baseball season, I gave you over unders on every team, 0:29:30.200 --> 0:29:32.960 and I gave you the Houston Astros and the Cleveland 0:29:33.080 --> 0:29:35.360 Indians in the a l c S. I gave you 0:29:35.440 --> 0:29:38.600 the Washington Nationals in the NLCS. I gave you the 0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:41.320 Nationals and the Astros in the World Series, which is 0:29:41.440 --> 0:29:44.640 still live. I gave you Corey Kluber as the A 0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:48.040 l C. I Young, which is still live. So now 0:29:48.240 --> 0:29:50.160 is when you need to, uh, you know, tune in 0:29:50.840 --> 0:29:52.880 and get ready to go on over to my Bookie 0:29:52.960 --> 0:29:55.320 dot a G. They got some futures bets out there 0:29:55.360 --> 0:29:58.280 for You're gonna start with division winners. We're gonna go 0:29:58.320 --> 0:30:00.560 around each division, and I'm gonna tell you where I'm 0:30:00.840 --> 0:30:02.760 taking the chalk and where I got a couple of 0:30:02.880 --> 0:30:06.080 surprises for you. Okay, first the easy ones. This is 0:30:06.160 --> 0:30:09.440 like Floyd Mayweather territory. Okay, making no money on this, 0:30:09.640 --> 0:30:11.640 but the Patriots will win the a f C East. 0:30:11.680 --> 0:30:13.320 So if you want to just like put your money 0:30:13.320 --> 0:30:15.600 in a look like a little small stock dividend and 0:30:15.720 --> 0:30:17.680 just hold it an s grow for three months and 0:30:17.720 --> 0:30:19.680 then gets get a like a you know, like a 0:30:19.960 --> 0:30:23.080 five percent return, then go ahead and bet the Patriots 0:30:23.160 --> 0:30:24.680 to win the a f C East. There at minus 0:30:24.800 --> 0:30:28.000 twelve hundred, that is a huge favorite. You know, the 0:30:28.080 --> 0:30:31.080 Dolphins at plus seven hundred, Bills at plus eleven hundred, 0:30:31.120 --> 0:30:34.040 and Jets at plus fifty five hundred if you want 0:30:34.080 --> 0:30:36.080 to think that they're in fact not tanking and have 0:30:36.160 --> 0:30:38.160 a shot to win the division. But my money is 0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:40.200 gonna be an escrow with the Patriots. I think they 0:30:40.280 --> 0:30:42.240 go thirteen and three this year and win the a 0:30:42.360 --> 0:30:45.720 f C East minus twelve hundred. The only other minus 0:30:46.000 --> 0:30:48.240 on the board. In the a f C I like 0:30:48.400 --> 0:30:50.000 big time is the a f C North. I like 0:30:50.080 --> 0:30:52.720 the Pittsburgh Steelers to win the a f C North 0:30:52.800 --> 0:30:56.080 at minus one seventy. The Browns or at plus twenty 0:30:56.120 --> 0:30:59.360 eight hundred, Bengals and Ravens both at plus two fifty. 0:30:59.600 --> 0:31:01.880 I like Steelers to win this division. I expect slight 0:31:01.960 --> 0:31:05.000 regression actually from the Bengals and the Ravens. I think 0:31:05.040 --> 0:31:08.920 the Browns take a small step forward. Not to playoff 0:31:08.960 --> 0:31:11.680 contention or anything like that, but I think the Steelers 0:31:11.880 --> 0:31:14.680 are another easy divisional winner in the a f C. 0:31:14.840 --> 0:31:17.800 I like them at minus one seventy to win the 0:31:17.960 --> 0:31:20.320 a f C North. Then in the other two divisions, 0:31:20.520 --> 0:31:23.080 it gets a little more interesting. In the a f 0:31:23.160 --> 0:31:26.400 C South, your favorites are actually the Titans at plus 0:31:26.480 --> 0:31:28.960 one thirty, followed by the Texans at plus one eighty, 0:31:29.360 --> 0:31:33.120 Colts at plus two twenty, and Jaguars at plus five fifty. 0:31:33.520 --> 0:31:37.040 I am taking the Houston Texans to win the a 0:31:37.200 --> 0:31:39.400 f C South. I think that defense will once again 0:31:39.480 --> 0:31:41.760 be top three in the league, especially with the return 0:31:41.840 --> 0:31:44.280 of J. J. Guatt I think that Tom Savage will 0:31:44.280 --> 0:31:47.000 be good enough to manage the game with that stud 0:31:47.160 --> 0:31:49.760 defense and will in fact win the a f C South. 0:31:49.840 --> 0:31:52.720 But I have them and the Titans at nine and seven, 0:31:52.840 --> 0:31:55.480 both qualifying for the playoffs. But I think, you know, 0:31:55.600 --> 0:31:57.320 based on the value, I'll take the plus one eight 0:31:57.400 --> 0:31:59.239 as opposed to the plus one thirty if I think 0:31:59.280 --> 0:32:01.200 both teams are gonna win nine games. I got the 0:32:01.360 --> 0:32:03.680 Texans winning the a f C South, and then we 0:32:03.760 --> 0:32:06.960 go out west, Out West. The Raiders are the favorites 0:32:07.000 --> 0:32:09.760 at plus one sixty, followed by the Chiefs are plus 0:32:09.840 --> 0:32:13.360 one eighty, Broncos at plus two hundred, Chargers at plus 0:32:13.480 --> 0:32:16.920 three eighty. Okay, now here's the thing. This division a 0:32:17.000 --> 0:32:19.840 lot of people think can make a case for almost anybody, right, 0:32:20.280 --> 0:32:22.240 I am going with the favorite, But I think the 0:32:22.280 --> 0:32:25.520 Oakland Raiders with Derek Carr at quarterback healthy for the 0:32:25.600 --> 0:32:28.320 full season, with beast mode to help with that opening 0:32:28.400 --> 0:32:30.120 up the defense in the run game, I think their 0:32:30.160 --> 0:32:32.640 defense takes another step. They improve the back end of 0:32:32.680 --> 0:32:35.440 that secondary, and you've got Khalil Mack there as well. 0:32:35.680 --> 0:32:38.560 I like the Raiders at plus one sixty, but one 0:32:38.560 --> 0:32:41.760 of my surprise teams in the a f C, I 0:32:41.840 --> 0:32:43.920 think they are going to make the playoffs, so I 0:32:44.000 --> 0:32:46.800 think they are a good value weekend and week out, 0:32:46.920 --> 0:32:50.240 starting this Monday night on the road against Denver. I 0:32:50.400 --> 0:32:53.360 like the Los Angeles Chargers. I think this is a 0:32:53.400 --> 0:32:55.840 team that can make the playoffs as a wild card. 0:32:56.080 --> 0:32:59.320 With Joey Boza becoming a man beast, and with Philip 0:32:59.440 --> 0:33:01.360 Rivers right, I'm not one of his last year's I 0:33:01.360 --> 0:33:03.480 think this could be a last hurrah of Philip Rivers. 0:33:03.680 --> 0:33:05.800 I like the Charges to make the playoffs, but I 0:33:05.920 --> 0:33:08.760 like the Raiders at plus one sixty to win the 0:33:08.880 --> 0:33:11.440 a f C West. So my division winners in the 0:33:11.480 --> 0:33:15.000 a f C Raiders in the West, Texans in the South, 0:33:15.400 --> 0:33:18.640 Steelers in the North, and the Patriots in the East. 0:33:18.760 --> 0:33:23.400 As it comes to the playoffs, I can't bring myself 0:33:23.480 --> 0:33:25.600 to pick the New England Patriots. I just can't do it. 0:33:25.720 --> 0:33:28.400 And also listen, the Pats are plus one thirty to 0:33:28.560 --> 0:33:30.400 win the a f C. You're not gonna make any 0:33:30.480 --> 0:33:33.400 money there. You never know the law of attrition might happen. 0:33:33.680 --> 0:33:36.320 In like fifteen years. Tom Brady has only been hurt once. 0:33:36.680 --> 0:33:39.000 You never know what these guys coming around the edge. 0:33:39.040 --> 0:33:41.400 The man is in his forties, so we shall see 0:33:41.560 --> 0:33:43.400 I'm gonna go elsewhere. I'm gonna try and beat the 0:33:43.440 --> 0:33:48.160 Patriots in the a f C. I'm picking the Pittsburgh 0:33:48.320 --> 0:33:51.360 Steelers to win the a f C. I think it's 0:33:51.400 --> 0:33:53.800 all the cards and the stars are lining up for 0:33:54.040 --> 0:33:58.360 Big Ben Levi on Belle, Antonio Brown, Martavis Bryant, and 0:33:58.680 --> 0:34:01.000 Mike Tomlin. I think they all stay on the field, 0:34:01.280 --> 0:34:04.200 they all stay healthy. And Ben Roethlisberger has been talking 0:34:04.240 --> 0:34:07.160 about retirement. He thinks this is his last chance. I 0:34:07.240 --> 0:34:11.520 think the stars finally aligned. Losing Julian Edelman hurts Tom 0:34:11.600 --> 0:34:14.719 Brady on third down when it counts in crunch time 0:34:14.840 --> 0:34:17.880 in the playoffs, and I think the Patriots get upset. 0:34:18.320 --> 0:34:20.799 I think they get upset by one of these stud defenses, 0:34:20.840 --> 0:34:23.320 maybe like the Texans earlier on. If the a f 0:34:23.400 --> 0:34:26.880 C Championship Game is at the number two seed Pittsburgh Steelers, 0:34:27.120 --> 0:34:29.640 I like the Steelers to represent the a f C 0:34:29.840 --> 0:34:31.840 in the Super Bowl. And if you agree with me, 0:34:31.920 --> 0:34:34.600 you can get the Steelers right now at plus three 0:34:34.880 --> 0:34:36.839 eighty to win the a f C. But I gotta 0:34:36.880 --> 0:34:39.640 tell you my lock in the a f C is. 0:34:39.680 --> 0:34:41.200 You can go on over to my bookie dot A 0:34:41.320 --> 0:34:44.960 g Right now and you can get Steelers or Patriots 0:34:46.040 --> 0:34:47.960 to win the a f C. You get both teams 0:34:48.000 --> 0:34:51.480 the prohibitive favorite, and my pick the Steelers right now 0:34:51.640 --> 0:34:54.719 on my bookie dot a G at plus one sixty five, 0:34:55.040 --> 0:34:57.520 you can get Steelers or Pats to win the a 0:34:57.680 --> 0:34:59.839 f C and Boyd who I love that. I'll take 0:34:59.880 --> 0:35:02.239 the Steelers though, over the Raiders in the a f 0:35:02.320 --> 0:35:05.640 C Championship game in Hines Field in Pittsburgh, Big Ben 0:35:06.040 --> 0:35:08.319 gets his opportunity to go back to a super Bowl 0:35:08.520 --> 0:35:12.840 in the NFC. In the NFC, UM, I like the 0:35:12.880 --> 0:35:15.160 Packers in the North. They're big favorites at minus two 0:35:15.239 --> 0:35:18.040 eighty vikings to contend for a playoff spot. I like 0:35:18.160 --> 0:35:21.200 the Seahawks in the West minus three fifty. You know 0:35:21.280 --> 0:35:23.239 that their favorites there in the South. For a lot 0:35:23.320 --> 0:35:25.680 of people have been talking different teams in the South. 0:35:25.760 --> 0:35:27.600 I think the Pants. I think the Falcons take a 0:35:27.719 --> 0:35:30.440 step back. Okay, with a little bit of aggression, they 0:35:30.440 --> 0:35:32.360 could still be a wild card kind of team. I 0:35:32.560 --> 0:35:34.400 was high on the Tampa Bay Bucks. Like my man 0:35:34.520 --> 0:35:37.239 Corey Parkson, the fantasy executive who I talk with on 0:35:37.400 --> 0:35:40.200 Sundays on Lineup Block Live, I was high on this Bucks, 0:35:40.200 --> 0:35:42.560 but I think this cancelation of Week one and them 0:35:42.640 --> 0:35:45.719 not having a buy now for fifteen sixteen straight weeks, 0:35:45.760 --> 0:35:47.799 I think that hurts the young team and I am 0:35:47.840 --> 0:35:51.840 now fading the Bucks. My NFC South champion is the 0:35:51.920 --> 0:35:55.200 return of Cam Newton hashtag all Quarterbacks Matter, and the 0:35:55.320 --> 0:35:58.880 Carolina Panthers. I think they take a step forward and 0:35:59.000 --> 0:36:00.600 when in the NFC s health and you can get 0:36:00.640 --> 0:36:03.120 them at plus one eighty there the second choice in 0:36:03.160 --> 0:36:06.440 the NFC. But my surprise division winner we go to 0:36:06.520 --> 0:36:09.239 the NFC East. I am fading the Dallas Cowboys. I 0:36:09.280 --> 0:36:13.160 think they overperformed last year. I think the New York 0:36:13.239 --> 0:36:15.960 Giants get into the playoffs, but as a wild card 0:36:16.120 --> 0:36:19.840 at nine and seven. My surprise division winner in the NFL. 0:36:19.920 --> 0:36:22.880 In the NFC East is the Philadelphia Eagles. If you 0:36:22.960 --> 0:36:25.239 listen to Fantasy Freestyle, you know I have been high 0:36:25.280 --> 0:36:28.320 on that defense and the additions they've made, getting Ronald Darby, 0:36:28.840 --> 0:36:31.880 uh drafting Derek Barnett, all the weapons they put around, 0:36:32.000 --> 0:36:35.200 developing second year quarterback Carson Wentz. I think it's lining 0:36:35.280 --> 0:36:38.360 up for the Philadelphia Eagles. That roster is talented. I 0:36:38.440 --> 0:36:41.640 think Wentz takes a step forward and at plus three hundred, 0:36:41.680 --> 0:36:43.320 I like that value. I'm gonna throw a couple of 0:36:43.360 --> 0:36:47.760 shekels on the Philadelphia Eagles to win the NFC East. 0:36:47.880 --> 0:36:50.840 And when we get to the NFC Championship Game, I 0:36:50.880 --> 0:36:52.640 think it's time for everybody to r e L a 0:36:52.920 --> 0:36:56.480 X relax along with Aaron Rodgers. I think Aaron Rodgers 0:36:56.719 --> 0:36:59.960 ultimately it is his year and they perform big time out. 0:37:00.000 --> 0:37:02.440 So like Aaron Rodgers as the second choice for m 0:37:02.560 --> 0:37:05.520 v P in the National Football League, I got Aaron 0:37:05.600 --> 0:37:08.200 Rodgers at m v P at plus four hundred. I 0:37:08.320 --> 0:37:12.120 got the Green Bay Packers winning the NFC over said 0:37:12.160 --> 0:37:15.080 Philadelphia Eagles. You can get at plus sixteen hundred if 0:37:15.120 --> 0:37:17.040 you want to ride with speeds that far. I stopped 0:37:17.080 --> 0:37:19.440 just short of that, but I got the Packers and 0:37:19.520 --> 0:37:22.840 the Steelers in Super Bowl fifty two. I believe in 0:37:23.040 --> 0:37:26.200 early February, and I'm gonna continue with this narrative that 0:37:26.320 --> 0:37:29.120 Big Ben gets his chance with all his weapons there 0:37:29.160 --> 0:37:31.680 to ride off into the sunset. I think Big Ben 0:37:31.760 --> 0:37:35.600 in the Pittsburgh Steelers win the Lombardi Trophy this year 0:37:35.640 --> 0:37:37.719 because I can't pick the Patriots. I think it is 0:37:37.760 --> 0:37:41.160 Steelers over Packers to hold up the Lombardi Trophy. You 0:37:41.160 --> 0:37:43.040 can get the Steelers at plus nine hundred at my 0:37:43.120 --> 0:37:46.800 bookie dot a g right now and I like that. Okay. 0:37:46.800 --> 0:37:48.759 I think then Ben rides off into the sunset and 0:37:48.880 --> 0:37:51.080 Levy on Bell may hit free agency looking for a 0:37:51.160 --> 0:37:53.960 new team after his Super Bowl win with the Steelers. 0:37:54.120 --> 0:37:56.920 Like Dalvin Cook as my rookie of the year for 0:37:56.960 --> 0:38:00.359 the Minnesota Vikings, He's at plus three third. You could 0:38:00.360 --> 0:38:02.799 win some money with that as well. You know another 0:38:02.800 --> 0:38:04.840 way you can win money. You can go to Fantasy 0:38:04.920 --> 0:38:07.719 Factor dot com right now. They are doing free to 0:38:07.960 --> 0:38:11.920 enter one thousand dollar knockout pools. Okay, I'm telling you 0:38:12.080 --> 0:38:14.360 right now, my knockout pick for Week one is the 0:38:14.719 --> 0:38:17.600 Houston Texans. That building will be emotional. I don't think 0:38:17.640 --> 0:38:20.120 Blake Bortles is the man to go on in there 0:38:20.160 --> 0:38:23.640 and ruin the party. I like Houston big time week one. 0:38:23.840 --> 0:38:25.840 I told you I like Steelers over Packers for the 0:38:25.880 --> 0:38:28.440 Super Bowl. Aaron Rodgers is my m v P and 0:38:28.680 --> 0:38:33.120 Dalvin Cook is my rookie of the Year. Hey, Chris, 0:38:33.200 --> 0:38:35.320 it sounds like we got some callers still there. It 0:38:35.400 --> 0:38:37.799 sounds like we got Josh in New Jersey. If Josh 0:38:37.880 --> 0:38:40.360 and New Jersey, if you're still holding I got you 0:38:40.440 --> 0:38:42.800 on the Fantasy Freestyle, you're dropping stats over beats. We 0:38:42.880 --> 0:38:44.600 got a couple of minutes before the break a Josh 0:38:44.640 --> 0:38:49.680 and New Jersey. You got a question. What's going on? Man? Hey? Man? 0:38:49.760 --> 0:38:52.399 What's going on? How you feeling? Man? Can't call it? Um? 0:38:56.600 --> 0:39:01.880 I have Kelsey and still sure. I think Kelsey and 0:39:02.000 --> 0:39:04.640 Hill are the two chiefs to own Josh. I like 0:39:04.800 --> 0:39:07.040 both of them, Okay. I think Kelsey is, you know, 0:39:07.360 --> 0:39:09.840 one of the top two tight ends. Okay, So I 0:39:09.960 --> 0:39:12.640 definitely love Kelsey. And I think I mentioned before earlier 0:39:12.680 --> 0:39:15.440 in the show, I think that without Spencer wear, Tyreek 0:39:15.480 --> 0:39:17.759 Hill gets the ball in his hands a little bit more, okay, 0:39:17.840 --> 0:39:20.840 and the rounds jet sweeps wildcats, things like that, and 0:39:20.960 --> 0:39:23.000 I like that opportunity for Tyree Hill. So I think 0:39:23.040 --> 0:39:25.040 he's sitting pretty I like both of them. Hey, Chris, 0:39:25.160 --> 0:39:26.960 it looks like we got time for one, maybe two 0:39:27.040 --> 0:39:30.120 more calls. Let's go to Joe in Tallahassee down there 0:39:30.200 --> 0:39:33.759 in Florida. He's uh, he decided to not go any 0:39:33.840 --> 0:39:35.799 tight ends in his draft. It looks like in Joe 0:39:35.880 --> 0:39:38.080 needs some help. Hey, Joe, you're on the Fantasy Freestyle. 0:39:38.120 --> 0:39:42.600 What's going on? Man? Uh hi? Um? Yeah? I own 0:39:42.840 --> 0:39:46.439 two tight ends right now. Ok I have Austin Hooper yep, 0:39:46.640 --> 0:39:52.040 and Charles Clay and there's also Evan Ingram in Waivers, 0:39:52.160 --> 0:39:54.120 and I was considering maybe picking him up. Who do 0:39:54.200 --> 0:39:56.600 you Who do you like out of those three? Sure? Sure, 0:39:56.719 --> 0:39:58.680 I know a lot of people are high on Evan Ingram, 0:39:58.760 --> 0:40:01.560 but I'm not as high on most as on Evan Ingram. 0:40:01.600 --> 0:40:03.719 I gotta tell you that Jutruth. Okay, in New York, 0:40:03.800 --> 0:40:06.320 whether Odell Beckham is playing or not, you still got Marshall, 0:40:06.320 --> 0:40:08.320 you still got Shephard, you still got the pass catching 0:40:08.360 --> 0:40:11.160 bag Shane Vereen, And I think it's tough for rookie 0:40:11.239 --> 0:40:13.759 tight ends. That's a pop off right away. I like 0:40:14.040 --> 0:40:17.400 Austin Hooper out there in Atlanta, Okay, he is dripping 0:40:17.480 --> 0:40:19.520 with upside. This is a guy that worked out in 0:40:19.560 --> 0:40:22.440 the off season with Matt Ryan. Matt Ryan is talking 0:40:22.560 --> 0:40:24.560 him up and outside of Julio showing where you got 0:40:24.640 --> 0:40:27.760 like guys like the running backs Tevin Coleman and DeVante Freeman. 0:40:27.920 --> 0:40:31.000 But I think Hooper could easily out get more targets 0:40:31.080 --> 0:40:34.280 this year than the guys like Mohammed Sunu or Tyler Gabriel. 0:40:34.360 --> 0:40:36.920 I like Austin Hooper, and thanks for the call. When 0:40:36.960 --> 0:40:39.160 we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle, give you my 0:40:39.239 --> 0:40:41.160 pick for tonight so you can get a head start 0:40:41.400 --> 0:40:44.279 on winning some cash.

As the Pats 0:41:56.280 --> 0:41:58.400 in the Chiefs get to go on on Thursday Night Football, 0:41:58.440 --> 0:42:01.400 the Pats raise a banner at Gillette and that's my man. 0:42:01.520 --> 0:42:04.160 Chris Bovoned a bounty hunter on the ones and twos, 0:42:04.480 --> 0:42:07.200 keeping it's so hot that we sweat steam. Hey, Chris, 0:42:07.640 --> 0:42:10.120 we gotta he got some proms for all those nineties 0:42:10.200 --> 0:42:12.359 beach you doing that as we dropped stats over beats, 0:42:12.360 --> 0:42:14.760 we got some fans of the music that you're playing. 0:42:14.880 --> 0:42:17.400 Keep it moving, Chris, keeping it so hot that we 0:42:17.520 --> 0:42:19.319 sweat steam. And Chris, I want to get your pick 0:42:19.600 --> 0:42:22.040 on tonight's game. We gotta poll question up there right 0:42:22.120 --> 0:42:23.640 right now. Listen, the line right now is eight a 0:42:23.640 --> 0:42:27.040 half over under his forty eight and a half. Sixty 0:42:27.160 --> 0:42:29.239 one percent of you are taking the Pats. Right now, 0:42:29.520 --> 0:42:32.600 thirty one percent say Pats, and the under thirty percent 0:42:32.680 --> 0:42:35.880 say Pats and the over only thirty nine percent of 0:42:35.960 --> 0:42:37.719 you are taking the eight and a half points in 0:42:37.800 --> 0:42:42.000 the Kansas City Chiefs, I am among them, Okay, I 0:42:42.120 --> 0:42:45.400 am taking the Chiefs and the under That is my 0:42:45.600 --> 0:42:48.880 pick speeds is lock right now on Thursday Night Football Listen. 0:42:48.920 --> 0:42:50.600 I think eight and a half points is too much, 0:42:50.960 --> 0:42:53.680 even for Tom Brady and the Patriots as they hang 0:42:53.840 --> 0:42:56.319 a bananner at home. And I also think this game 0:42:56.400 --> 0:42:58.240 is gonna be a little bit lower scoring. The Patriots 0:42:58.280 --> 0:43:01.040 have things they need to figure out without Julian Edelman. 0:43:01.239 --> 0:43:03.839 The Chiefs have things they need to figure out. Traditionally 0:43:03.960 --> 0:43:07.920 early in the season, defenses are ahead of the offenses. 0:43:08.040 --> 0:43:10.759 I think New England wins this game. I don't think 0:43:10.840 --> 0:43:12.720 they cover. I think this is a four or seven 0:43:12.800 --> 0:43:16.560 point game. The Chiefs always play the Patriots close, regardless 0:43:16.600 --> 0:43:19.080 of where it is. I see this game more around 0:43:19.840 --> 0:43:23.400 seen in that neighborhood. So I like the Chiefs with 0:43:23.480 --> 0:43:25.360 the eight and a half points, and I like the 0:43:25.640 --> 0:43:28.680 under forty eight and a half. Clayton Treyhan on Twitter 0:43:28.760 --> 0:43:31.960 Claymore's f FB says, I think Brady looks to send 0:43:32.040 --> 0:43:35.040 a message tonight that he's still kicking father times. But 0:43:35.520 --> 0:43:38.400 so it looks like Clayton disagrees with me on both counts, 0:43:38.480 --> 0:43:41.239 looking like they're like the Patriots and the over. It 0:43:41.320 --> 0:43:45.000 sounds like some points Clayton thinks will be scored it. Chris, 0:43:45.200 --> 0:43:46.960 how do you think tonight's games shake out? Are you 0:43:47.080 --> 0:43:49.120 lay in the points the eight and a half? You 0:43:49.200 --> 0:43:51.200 think the Patriots role or you think the Chiefs keep 0:43:51.239 --> 0:43:53.560 it close tonight. I think the Chiefs keep it close tonight. 0:43:53.560 --> 0:43:54.880 I think the Chiefs are the type of team that 0:43:54.920 --> 0:43:57.200 they're gonna go into this game thinking where do we 0:43:57.320 --> 0:43:59.960 stand with the Super Bowl champions? Because the Chiefs are 0:44:00.120 --> 0:44:02.719 definitely going to be looking at where they will be 0:44:02.880 --> 0:44:05.120 by week fifteen, and they're gonna look back at this 0:44:05.280 --> 0:44:08.319 game at week at week one. So I do see 0:44:08.360 --> 0:44:10.680 the Chiefs defense playing a very strong game, But in 0:44:10.760 --> 0:44:12.960 the end, I think the Patriots. It's the Patriots they're 0:44:12.960 --> 0:44:15.000 gonna win. Yeah, I agree, I think Patriots do win 0:44:15.120 --> 0:44:16.800 this game. I don't know if I would lay the 0:44:16.880 --> 0:44:18.840 eight and a half. In fact, I'm taking the points 0:44:18.880 --> 0:44:21.640 with the Kansas City Chiefs. You can call in tomorrow 0:44:22.040 --> 0:44:23.880 and uh, you know, you can lamb base me if 0:44:23.920 --> 0:44:25.879 I was completely wrong.
