Speaker 1: Wow, Hey everybody, It's Monday, November fourth, twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Show, where we're ready
Speaker 1: for the real grind to begin. It's me and your man,
Speaker 1: MG Marcus Grand joined by Michael Florio and Lakwan Jones.
Speaker 1: We are almost through nine weeks, Florida. We are as
Speaker 1: far from either shore as we're going to be. How
Speaker 1: are we feeling at the midway point?
Speaker 2: Uh said a little bit like, Look, the first eight
Speaker 2: weeks have been really rough for my fantasy teams, but
Speaker 2: you know, we still got a lot of season left
Speaker 2: to go. But the closer and closer we get to
Speaker 2: the end, the more I'm like, oh, this is this
Speaker 2: is almost coming to an end, so enjoy it while
Speaker 2: it's here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how are we feeling at this point? In lakwand
Speaker 1: are we were ready to go for the back half
Speaker 1: of this thing.
Speaker 3: I'm ready to bring home the gold in some of
Speaker 3: my leagues where I'm happier where I'm sitting at record wise,
Speaker 3: But the rest of the other teams, we just don't acknowledge.
Speaker 3: You know, they're bad, they're in the past, you know whatever,
Speaker 3: We're good, you know, So I'm looking forward to the
Speaker 3: main teams that I got right now in this playoff run, I've.
Speaker 1: Just decided that really what I'm focused on is giving
Speaker 1: advice to other people because it's not working out for
Speaker 1: me on a real team by team level. This year,
Speaker 1: this this honestly is maybe one of the worst years
Speaker 1: I add in fantasy. So now I'm just gonna focus
Speaker 1: on trying to be good for everyone else and trying
Speaker 1: to help everybody else's teams. To that end, we got
Speaker 1: a lot to talk about today. We will have our
Speaker 1: biggest takeaways from week nine. We will dive into the
Speaker 1: waiver wire, plus some fantasy mulligan. Some things we sort
Speaker 1: of swung and missed on, whether it's this week, whether
Speaker 1: it's this year, however you want to defind it, and
Speaker 1: you know we'll get some doovers on that. But let's start,
Speaker 1: as we always do, with some fantasy headlines and coming
Speaker 1: into Monday, there were six teams across the NFL that
Speaker 1: had a two and seven record. Two of those teams
Speaker 1: made major coaching shakeups. You will start in Las Vegas,
Speaker 1: where the Raiders have fired offensive coordinator Luke Getsi as
Speaker 1: long as as well as two other assistant coaches, I
Speaker 1: only Pierce making big shakeups there. However, Pierce also said
Speaker 1: he is not ready to name a new play caller,
Speaker 1: nor is he ready to name a new starting quarterback.
Speaker 1: So Florida, I mean, maybe it's been trending this way
Speaker 1: for a while, but have we reached a point where
Speaker 1: it's pretty much just Brock Bowers and nobody else in
Speaker 1: Las Vegas.
Speaker 2: We're getting close to that. I would say it is
Speaker 2: Brock Bowers, Jacoby Myers and no one else in fantasy,
Speaker 2: because you look at what Jacoby Myers has done as
Speaker 2: of late eleven targets yesterday, he has seven or more
Speaker 2: and now five straight games, and in each of those
Speaker 2: games he's at least fifty yards, So you're talking about
Speaker 2: him bringing a safe floor and some ceiling, like we
Speaker 2: saw a pretty high ceiling each of the last two
Speaker 2: games out of him as well. But yeah, they're now
Speaker 2: using three different running backs. It was a Mere Abdulah
Speaker 2: who led them in snaps and targets this week. Alexander
Speaker 2: Madison led them and carries, but Zamir White got the
Speaker 2: goal line work. So in that type of backfield, you
Speaker 2: cannot trust any of them. So yeah, two Raiders, and
Speaker 2: so Marcus, this is something that I know you and
Speaker 2: I have spoke a lot about off air, Like Antonio
Speaker 2: Pierce was the right man for the moment last year,
Speaker 2: but in my opinion, they needed a smart offensive mind
Speaker 2: to keep this thing going and they did not get
Speaker 2: that with Getzi. So yeah, it's looking pretty rough right
Speaker 2: now for the Raiders.
Speaker 1: The one Samir White touchdown I think had everybody in
Speaker 1: fantasy wanting to smash their head into a wall because
Speaker 1: it's like, we, look, we were really leaning on the
Speaker 1: Raiders running game, but Zamir White, we felt like was
Speaker 1: pretty much done at this point. Then he shows up
Speaker 1: and scores a touchdown. This also sort of feels like
Speaker 1: Antonio Pierce trying to scapegoat a little bit to save
Speaker 1: his own job, but it does feel like that is
Speaker 1: coming to an end as well. The Raiders had to
Speaker 1: turn to Desmond Ritter on Sunday to finish out that
Speaker 1: game against the Bengals while they were getting blown out. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: over in New Orleans, Dennis Allen is no longer the
Speaker 1: head coach of the Saints. They lose to the Panthers
Speaker 1: on Sunday. They're at two and seven. It was just
Speaker 1: Carolina's second win of the season. On top of that,
Speaker 1: Lakwan Chris Olave left the game early, took a really
Speaker 1: nasty hit suffered a concussion. The early indications are that
Speaker 1: he was not gonna be ready for Week ten coming up.
Speaker 1: How much longer he's going to be out still is
Speaker 1: an open question at this point. But now in New Orleans,
Speaker 1: is it just Alvin Kamara and nobody else with this
Speaker 1: Saints offense?
Speaker 3: Yeah, pretty much of who you can trust on a
Speaker 3: week to week I mean, they put up one hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty five rushing yards with Alvin Kamara and they
Speaker 3: still lost the game. Like there's really no real hope,
Speaker 3: you know, outside of looking out of Alvin Kamara, just
Speaker 3: based on you can't really trust anybody out there and
Speaker 3: who's going to be out there staying healthy. I mean,
Speaker 3: Derek Carr likes targeting his tight ends, but multiple tight
Speaker 3: ends have touched the ball when it comes to Derek
Speaker 3: Carr targeting them in the red zone. So it's not
Speaker 3: really like you can pinpoint who's going to be your
Speaker 3: guy in this offense. And honestly, this offense is terrible.
Speaker 3: They fell off a cliff since Week three I mean, no,
Speaker 3: seven losses. Those are big losses for that offense that
Speaker 3: can't get anything going. I mean Derek Carr. You know
Speaker 3: he was injured, but we know we're getting out of
Speaker 3: Derek Carr. And you can see in these highlights overthrown
Speaker 3: passes and not being able to connect with wide receivers
Speaker 3: on a consistent basis. And you know, Dennis Allen gets
Speaker 3: to boot. You know, last time he was a head coach,
Speaker 3: he got the boot and his quarterback was Derek Carr.
Speaker 3: So here we are again. So we kind of saw
Speaker 3: how this all played out before, and here we are,
Speaker 3: you know, in week nine, and he's canned, sacked.
Speaker 1: I should say that sacked sack time is a is
Speaker 1: a flat circle. Apparently with the Dennis Allen and Derek
Speaker 1: Carr ninety one points combined in their first two games.
Speaker 1: Now in this seven game losing streak, they scored a
Speaker 1: grand total of one sixteen. Yeah, it is bleak there
Speaker 1: in New Orleans. You know, we'll see if this helps
Speaker 1: the offense in any way. You know, I'm sure you
Speaker 1: guys both saw. Michael Thomas had a lot to say
Speaker 1: on Twitter on Sunday about the quarterback of the New
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints. Yeah, can't guard Mike Apparently, you can't guard
Speaker 1: him from saying just wicked things on Twitter about the
Speaker 1: Saints starting quarterback Anyway. A couple offenses though, to keep
Speaker 1: an eye on as we get to the back half
Speaker 1: of the season with coaching changes happening. May not be
Speaker 1: the last in season coaching change we have to talk
Speaker 1: about on this show. Taking a look at the top
Speaker 1: scores so far in Week nine, with still two teams
Speaker 1: left to play on Monday Night, Jalen Hurts doing it
Speaker 1: big against the jaguarswo engine thirty passing yards, a couple
Speaker 1: of touchdowns, also sixty seven rushing yards did a scord
Speaker 1: nearly thirty points for him. Saquon Barkley doing Saquon things
Speaker 1: thirty two, almost thirty three points for him, and that's
Speaker 1: after losing a fumble. Could have been an even bigger
Speaker 1: day for him, but a pair of touchdowns, one on
Speaker 1: the ground, one through the air. Jackson Smith and Jigba
Speaker 1: shows up seemingly out of nowhere. Seven catches for a
Speaker 1: Buck eighty and two touchdowns, thirty seven points for JSN.
Speaker 1: Mike Gasicki five catches, one hundred yards and two touchdowns
Speaker 1: against the Raiders. That's twenty seven points right there. Cairo
Speaker 1: Santos with three field goals for thirteen points, and the
Speaker 1: Rams defense getting it done against the Seahawks seven sacks,
Speaker 1: three picks including a pick six, twenty points allowed and
Speaker 1: ends up being twenty points for the Rams. So as
Speaker 1: we take a look at that, you know, La Kwand's
Speaker 1: very fired up about they played well, no doubt about it,
Speaker 1: and they are hot right now. We're back maybe anyway,
Speaker 1: non Rams talk. Anybody else that you like is a
Speaker 1: fantasy hero this week? And somebody on menu off men
Speaker 1: you go wherever you like.
Speaker 3: Listen. Mike Kiseki, big Jersey, another Jersey guy. I love
Speaker 3: to support my guys. But he showed up and showed out.
Speaker 3: And again he's a guy that's been living on the
Speaker 3: waiver wire these past couple of weeks and he's been
Speaker 3: stepping in when T. Higgins isn't Now, if T Higgins
Speaker 3: is not on the field, I'm playing Mike Koseki for
Speaker 3: the rest of the season because T Higgins obviously he's
Speaker 3: the spocal point, the second wide receiver in this offense
Speaker 3: along with Jamar Chase. But Mike Koseki man, he's been
Speaker 3: showing up in the time said T Higgins has not
Speaker 3: been available. So therefore, honestly, I love that they're still
Speaker 3: supporting the National tight End Day all the way into
Speaker 3: the next week because four different tight ends touched the
Speaker 3: ball yesterday and it's like, Okay, Mike Kiseki, he's going
Speaker 3: to be the alpha of those tight ends. So shout
Speaker 3: out Big Jersey Gooseki, get those tuddies well.
Speaker 1: And shout out to Kasiki for being ready for the opportunity,
Speaker 1: because it seemed like the Bengals wanted Jermaine Burton to
Speaker 1: really have his opportunity. Then he misses a meeting on Saturday,
Speaker 1: ends up being a healthy scratch sort of as a
Speaker 1: disciplinary measure by the Bengals. So Mike Kasiki stepped in
Speaker 1: and look, just it's a lesson, not just in the NFL,
Speaker 1: but in life. If you are not ready for your opportunities,
Speaker 1: somebody else probably is going to be floreal. I've the
Speaker 1: thought coming here into the weekend that Saquon is going
Speaker 1: to go big. I know I'm not alone in this.
Speaker 1: It's Saquon Barkley against a bad defense. But man, Saquon
Speaker 1: Barkley went big. This week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he most certainly did. And I think you could
Speaker 2: argue right now, the only running you'd rather have in
Speaker 2: fantasy than Saquon is Derick Henry. But there is an
Speaker 2: argument even to be had there because what Saquon is
Speaker 2: doing is so special right now, and this play that
Speaker 2: you were watching right now got such an audible reaction
Speaker 2: out of me. And it's a reminder that, like, we
Speaker 2: watch football because it is fun and it is awesome,
Speaker 2: And if we're talking fantasy heroes, how could I not
Speaker 2: go with a guy who did something that you only
Speaker 2: see in superhero movies or kung fu movies because that's
Speaker 2: exactly what he just did right there. So yeah, if
Speaker 2: you have Saquon, you are feeling great right now. You
Speaker 2: are planning room where you're gonna put your trophy or whatever,
Speaker 2: because he is just absolutely balling out right now. Perfect
Speaker 2: fit for him and for Philly.
Speaker 1: Oh man, it was that play was mind boggling. I mean, like,
Speaker 1: how a human being pulls that off bro in real time,
Speaker 1: at real speed against other professional athletes was just an incredible,
Speaker 1: incredible thing to say, touched his toe for me, Yeah,
Speaker 1: how how do you do that? I don't get it?
Speaker 1: I go with Chase Brown as a big fantasy hero
Speaker 1: this week, and we have been sort of waiting for
Speaker 1: the Chase Brown takeover to happen. I mean, Zach Moss
Speaker 1: being less than one hundred percent certainly aided in that,
Speaker 1: but Chase Brown really has been getting more and more
Speaker 1: opportunities in the offense as the weeks have gone on.
Speaker 1: This week took full advantage against a bad Raider defense
Speaker 1: season high twenty six point seven fantasy points, first time
Speaker 1: he's been over one hundred rushing yards this season, also
Speaker 1: had a receiving touchdown. Really was a do everything guy,
Speaker 1: and it sort of shows you that when there is
Speaker 1: just one guy in this Bengals backfield, that that player
Speaker 1: can actually eat and be productive. I think some of
Speaker 1: the problem for us and trying to pick a running
Speaker 1: back is that you have two guys who were sort
Speaker 1: of getting similar opportunities, and neither one of them was
Speaker 1: doing enough individually to feel confident in putting them in
Speaker 1: our lineups regularly. So we'll see what the future is
Speaker 1: for Zack Moss. We'll see how the splits go as
Speaker 1: the season goes along, but it does feel like Chase
Speaker 1: Brown really is coming for that RB one job in Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: I will say, as somebody who drafted a lot of them,
Speaker 1: you'll love to see it. We'll just see if he
Speaker 1: can continue to be as productive. Certainly the Bengals hope
Speaker 1: so because they are very much fighting for their playoff lives.
Speaker 1: And look some big games coming up on the schedule.
Speaker 1: They got the Ravens next week on Thursday Night Football.
Speaker 1: He got a tough Charger defense. They have the Steelers
Speaker 1: still coming up as well, so some difficult matchups. But
Speaker 1: if Chase Brown is the guy, I can feel a
Speaker 1: lot better about Chase Brown in my lineup. So those
Speaker 1: are some of the things we learned from the weekend. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: as we go and look a bigger view, you kind
Speaker 1: of a wider view of this thing. Look on what
Speaker 1: was one of the big things you took away from
Speaker 1: this past week?
Speaker 3: Bryce Seung playing better, and honestly, this means a ton
Speaker 3: for the fantasy wide receivers over there that are relevant
Speaker 3: when it comes to Jalen Cocher when it comes to.
Speaker 2: Xavier League aet.
Speaker 3: I really feel as though now he has these back
Speaker 3: to back games where he's shown improvement, he's been playing
Speaker 3: completely better than he was in the big in the season,
Speaker 3: and only to mention that, you know, looking at that
Speaker 3: Denver Broncos game that he had last week, he really
Speaker 3: looked good in the pockety he looked a comfortable and
Speaker 3: when you have the run game doing their part as
Speaker 3: well with Huba Hubbard, which is great in this one
Speaker 3: two punch, Bryce Young's able to actually sit back there
Speaker 3: and get his wide receivers to the ball and get these
Speaker 3: guys fantasy relevant. And I think when you have Exavier
Speaker 3: look at how he's been playing, he's starting to heat
Speaker 3: up and coming to his own with the fantasy playoffs
Speaker 3: are around the way. Jalen Coker and Xavier le Get
Speaker 3: are guys that I'm having stash as potential wide receiver
Speaker 3: three slash flex players. Man, I'm telling you Bryce s
Speaker 3: Young is going to keep on improvement as the season
Speaker 3: goes on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, he's looked good. And I went back
Speaker 1: and watched some of that game the week before against
Speaker 1: Denver and you could see moments of it and he
Speaker 1: just looks like he's getting more comfortable. I mean, who knows,
Speaker 1: maybe sitting on the bench for a few weeks actually
Speaker 1: did some good. I know, the numbers aren't spectacular, but
Speaker 1: it's definitely an improvement from where he was, and as
Speaker 1: you mentioned, it certainly helps the receivers there as well.
Speaker 1: Florio are what are you learning? I guess some thing
Speaker 1: also about quarterbacks who were binge huh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I think there is a trend where quarterbacks
Speaker 2: are being given up on too easy and too early
Speaker 2: in the NFL right now, and Bryce Young is a
Speaker 2: good example. Like they haven't even said he's going to
Speaker 2: be the starter next week, which makes no sense to me.
Speaker 2: But Anthony Richardson. Maybe the Colts are actually better with
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson. Even if you want to argue that they
Speaker 2: are not long term, this is such a bad decision.
Speaker 2: You look at what they did this past week with
Speaker 2: Joe Flacco. They did not score a touchdown. They scored
Speaker 2: three offensive points, which came after a three and out
Speaker 2: on an interception. They had their fewest yards of the season.
Speaker 2: Their second fewest was their last time that Joe Flacco
Speaker 2: started for the Indianapolis Colts. They had their lowest epa
Speaker 2: per play. I could go on and on and on,
Speaker 2: but the thing is if they lost to the they
Speaker 2: needed a fourth quarter comeback with Flacco, they lost to
Speaker 2: the Jaguars. With him, they did not compete at all
Speaker 2: against the Vikings. What is your ceiling potentially sneaking in
Speaker 2: as a seventh seed. Get Anthony Richardson back in there,
Speaker 2: Get him the reps that he needs. Figure out this
Speaker 2: long term because it was ugly with Anthony Richardson. It
Speaker 2: was boring and ugly on Sunday night without.
Speaker 1: I mean, the thing with Joe Flacco is that he
Speaker 1: was supposed to elevate the pass catchers, right, he was
Speaker 1: supposed to make us more confident in downs and Pittman
Speaker 1: and even Alec Pierce. If that didn't happen at all.
Speaker 1: So if you're not winning, you're not moving the ball,
Speaker 1: and you're not elevating your other skill position, Guys, to
Speaker 1: your point, what even are we doing here other than
Speaker 1: just wrecking your rookie young quarterbacks.
Speaker 2: Playing a head coach a quarterback that's older than their
Speaker 2: head coach.
Speaker 1: That's what that? Yeah, yeah, when you put it like that, man,
Speaker 1: other quarterback issues that are a little bit better that
Speaker 1: we're in Los Angeles. Maybe justin Herbert is becoming a
Speaker 1: thing for the Chargers. He's put up top ten weeks
Speaker 1: in back to back a week to ten games, I
Speaker 1: should say in back to back weeks, of course, the
Speaker 1: Monday night game notwithstanding. But they're starting to let him
Speaker 1: throw the football more. I mean, early in the season
Speaker 1: it was about the run game for this Chargers offense. Obviously,
Speaker 1: it was great to see JK. Dobbins get out to
Speaker 1: a quick start this year and play so well early
Speaker 1: in the season. But the last few weeks we're starting
Speaker 1: to see the Chargers open it up more. Herbert only
Speaker 1: twenty seven attempts I say, only twenty seven pass attempts
Speaker 1: on Sunday, but before that three games in a row
Speaker 1: with thirty two or more passing attempts. He started to
Speaker 1: be efficient. In fact, this year just one interception, ten
Speaker 1: touchdown passes, just one pick for Justin Herbert. He's starting
Speaker 1: to elevate Lad mcconkee. Every now and then you get
Speaker 1: the busted coverage on Quinton Johnston that turns into a touchdown,
Speaker 1: and so, yeah, it's not gonna look like it looked
Speaker 1: like previously when Herbert was throwing the ball all over
Speaker 1: the lot and they were a pass first offense. This
Speaker 1: is still a run first offense. But Justin Herbert starting
Speaker 1: to work his way back in get more comfortable, and
Speaker 1: Greg Rome is starting to realize what he has under center.
Speaker 1: You gotta be excited about that. I mean, look, we
Speaker 1: knew that Herbert wasn't gonna be the same level of guy,
Speaker 1: but I don't think we expected the fall off that
Speaker 1: we saw early in the season. So maybe, just maybe
Speaker 1: he's starting to bounce back.
Speaker 2: Running a little bit more too.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think Greg Roman is going to
Speaker 1: confuse him with Lamar Jackson, but he is starting to
Speaker 1: run a little bit more, and you got to like
Speaker 1: that as well. It's the hair exactly. We're gonna dip
Speaker 1: into the waiver wire coming up after this and some
Speaker 1: do overs as well. That's next on the NFL Fantasy
Speaker 1: Football Show. Let's take a look at this week's waiver
Speaker 1: wire options. Florio. Who should we be looking after this week?
Speaker 2: Drake May someone I'm really excited about for fantasy purposes.
Speaker 2: I don't love bow Knicks matchup next week, but the
Speaker 2: schedule gets better after that. Aaron Rodgers because the weapons
Speaker 2: around him are playing really well and that helps elevate him.
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones played well this past week and gets a
Speaker 2: great matchup against the Panthers if you need a streaming
Speaker 2: option next week. Ray Davis still playing the secondary role,
Speaker 2: but he is an injury away and maybe carving out
Speaker 2: some standalone value of his own. Same thing with Tyler Aljier,
Speaker 2: Kamani Vedell, Trey Benson. All of these guys are an
Speaker 2: injury away from being every week starter. So they are
Speaker 2: the type of running backs I like to have on
Speaker 2: my bench. CenTra Tillman needs to be picked up police.
Speaker 2: He should not still be out there. Xavierly Get I
Speaker 2: know Lakwan was talking him up earlier. I like him
Speaker 2: a lot as well, Jerry Judy, Damario Douglas, Elijah Moore
Speaker 2: because volume is what we care about. Ray Ray McLeod
Speaker 2: just in case Drake London cannot suit up next week
Speaker 2: and then Hunter Henry so much volume from the tight
Speaker 2: end position. Jatavian Sanders continues to see more volume. Agree
Speaker 2: with Lakwan that if t Higgins is out, Mike is
Speaker 2: Secki is in play. If Higgins plays get away from him,
Speaker 2: and then Deil Johnson getting more volume and has a
Speaker 2: good matchup next week against the Panthers, so he's in play.
Speaker 1: If you need a tight end streamer, Yeah, I'm in
Speaker 1: the I had Theo Johnson kind of as a deep
Speaker 1: sleeper this year, and maybe maybe if Daniel Jones is
Speaker 1: starting to come around, he become a little bit more
Speaker 1: of a thing. Lak. I'm honest about Drake May though,
Speaker 1: because I get the Patriots sort of waited, right they
Speaker 1: let Jakobe Brissett start the season out, then they made
Speaker 1: the switch and win or lose. This offense is better
Speaker 1: with Drake May. And even in fantasy there's a little
Speaker 1: bit of something there.
Speaker 3: It seems like, yeah, it's crazy because you see flashes
Speaker 3: of Josh Allen, Like, I don't want to make the
Speaker 3: comparison just strictly based on stats. It's the little nuances,
Speaker 3: the little mannerisms that he has in that pocket. When
Speaker 3: you see him in that pocket for eleven seconds trying
Speaker 3: to find his man. Josh Allen does this every single week,
Speaker 3: even earlier in his career when we were watching the
Speaker 3: development of him taking that leap. There's some little things
Speaker 3: that he does that Drake May is on display right
Speaker 3: now and making this offense a lot better. The Patriots
Speaker 3: haven't had a guy really mobile out of the pocket
Speaker 3: like a Drake May, and he's able to scan the
Speaker 3: entire field make the and more so, you're looking at
Speaker 3: this old line. He can't really trust it yet. I
Speaker 3: think that last pick that he threw is because he
Speaker 3: rushed it. But honestly, you give him more weapons around him.
Speaker 3: He has a bright future in fantasy moving forward.
Speaker 1: I mean did not begin the year as the starter,
Speaker 1: but right now is actually twelve among quarterbacks and rushing yards.
Speaker 1: Had ninety five rushing yards on Sunday against the Titans.
Speaker 1: He kind of is what we want from a fantasy
Speaker 1: quarterback right now. Still a lot of development. They still
Speaker 1: need some help at the skill position, guys, but you're
Speaker 1: starting to see what the Patriots like about Drake May
Speaker 1: the next Josh Allen. Do you like that though, since
Speaker 1: he's in your division.
Speaker 2: I don't like it for the Bills. I love it
Speaker 2: for Drake May and fantasy purposes. Like there's gonna be
Speaker 2: a lot of growing pains, but the flashes that he shows,
Speaker 2: I'm fully on board with Drake May.
Speaker 1: That works, all right, Let's do some fantasy mulligans, some
Speaker 1: guys that we want to do over on. Maybe it's
Speaker 1: for this week, maybe it's for the season. Find it
Speaker 1: however you like. But uh, Lukwan, who would you like
Speaker 1: to maybe get another chance at Dak Prescott.
Speaker 3: I mean, his ADP is starting to make a lot
Speaker 3: more sense for was in the summer, because man, if
Speaker 3: I would have known that the Cowboys had more storylines
Speaker 3: than the WWE right now and none of them are good,
Speaker 3: I would have stayed away, man, because every single week
Speaker 3: it's something else, and you're having CD go out there
Speaker 3: playing her. I don't think he's going to be very
Speaker 3: useful to Dak playing her, and if he's out so,
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott honestly doesn't have that many weapons outside of
Speaker 3: CD land that he could depend on other than Jake Fergie.
Speaker 3: But he's a tight end. He's always going to be
Speaker 3: the security blanket. But more so, I wish I could
Speaker 3: just take back as many shares as I had over
Speaker 3: the summer of Dak Prescott as my QB one, because
Speaker 3: now I'm shifting with Winston, I'm shifting with quarterbacks like
Speaker 3: Garner Minshew. I really wish that I didn't take as
Speaker 3: many shares as I did with Dak Prescott and the
Speaker 3: Cowboys storylines right now.
Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, the Cowboy's kind of a hot mess
Speaker 1: right now, but it's great, I guess for sports talk radio,
Speaker 1: especially in the Metro area for sure. Yeah. For who
Speaker 1: do you want to do over on.
Speaker 2: Zay Flowers because I was an absolute idiot for doubting
Speaker 2: he and the Ravens this past week. I had him
Speaker 2: as a sit in stardom, sit him, and boy did
Speaker 2: that not work out. The Broncos secondary got cooked like
Speaker 2: we have not seen before. Like on this play you
Speaker 2: see right here, I'm like, all right, it was it
Speaker 2: was one catch and run like that could be had
Speaker 2: or whatever, but then it just kept going and it
Speaker 2: kept going, and it was a lot of we saw
Speaker 2: some poor tackling, like on this play right here. I
Speaker 2: don't know how Jay Flowers gets by four white jerseys,
Speaker 2: but he did. I have to take that l I
Speaker 2: will no longer ever doubt Lamar or this Ravens offense
Speaker 2: or any of it outside of maybe Deontay Johnson, who
Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you to sit again next week.
Speaker 2: But besides that, yeah, start all your Ravens. And I'm
Speaker 2: sorry if I told you to sit Zave Flowers.
Speaker 1: It turns out Vance Joseph sort of brought this on himself.
Speaker 1: He said, we're gonna try to focus on stopping the
Speaker 1: run and we're going to force them to beat us
Speaker 1: through the air, and Lamar Jackson did that. Mine sort
Speaker 1: of goes for both the week and the season, and
Speaker 1: we talked about it a little bit earlier in the show.
Speaker 1: But it's the Colts Man. Whether it was us, you know,
Speaker 1: getting really hyped about Anthony Richardson, whether it was us
Speaker 1: getting excited about Michael Pittman, whether it's us hoping that
Speaker 1: a change to Joe Flacco would turn things around this
Speaker 1: week and it didn't. I feel like I've been had
Speaker 1: by the Indianapolis Colts this season. I mean it has
Speaker 1: just been bad, frustrating, call it whatever you want. It's
Speaker 1: been un good by any stretch of the imagination. And
Speaker 1: right now there's just really no telling where they go
Speaker 1: from here. Do they try to go back to Richardson
Speaker 1: after just yanking the job away from him? Do they
Speaker 1: stay with Flacco after he was completely ineffective against granted,
Speaker 1: a good Minnesota defense, but it looked bad on Sunday
Speaker 1: Night football. Jonavan Taylor has been just sort of there
Speaker 1: for a good chunk of the season, Like, yeah, he's
Speaker 1: had some night games, but you look around and he's
Speaker 1: Number twenty four among running backs Right now, it just
Speaker 1: hasn't worked out at all. I don't think we were
Speaker 1: expecting them to be some sort of juggernaut offense. We
Speaker 1: were going to confuse them, you know, with the Lions
Speaker 1: or the Eagles or somebody like that. But man, it
Speaker 1: was supposed to be a lot better than it curly
Speaker 1: is right now. I wish I could try that one
Speaker 1: over again for sure. All right, let's end on a
Speaker 1: positive note, though, shall we. Now let's talk about one
Speaker 1: of our favorite moments from the past week. We talked
Speaker 1: about Saquon Barkley and his superhuman feats of agility on
Speaker 1: the field. Not only were we amazed, AJ Brown was
Speaker 1: just I mean, he's like one of us, right, Like,
Speaker 1: he's just one of us. I mean, I don't look,
Speaker 1: I have never seen anything like this on a football field.
Speaker 3: I don't like, I'm just still amazed. I watched this
Speaker 3: at least five hundred times. What the one takeaway I
Speaker 3: had was that everybody in the Giants front office needs
Speaker 3: to go on a permanent vacation because there's nothing that
Speaker 3: can do that isn't this impressive ever on the field.
Speaker 2: Just watch it?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Like how how does he do this?
Speaker 1: So when's the last time you think John Marra slept Floya.
Speaker 1: He say he's gonna he's not gonna sleep well if
Speaker 1: he goes to the Eagles. John Mayra hasn't slept since
Speaker 1: like July.
Speaker 2: Probably he's been just standing in that same office just
Speaker 2: like he was the off season Hard Knocks ever since
Speaker 2: that day in March. Like aj Brown is one of
Speaker 2: the most physically gifted humans on the planet, and he
Speaker 2: was mind blown watching this plane Like that just puts
Speaker 2: it into perspective. How great of a a play and
Speaker 2: an effort it was from Saquon Barkley. Look at this.
Speaker 2: That means you look, you watched for the next ten
Speaker 2: years and you won't see this happen again. A reverse hurdle.
Speaker 1: Wow, how does number twenty two feel because he's going
Speaker 1: to be in that highlight for the end of time.
Speaker 1: Like that's how highlight's gonna get played forever, and number
Speaker 1: twenty two is gonna be seen ducking under sat one
Speaker 1: Barkley missing a tackle.
Speaker 2: It's like when Josh Norman got thrown to another planet
Speaker 2: by Derrick Henry, Like that's what you become known.
Speaker 1: Four stiff armed into the Shadow Realm by Derrick henry Man.
Speaker 1: I guess, speaking of the Shadows, we should probably retreat
Speaker 1: there at least for a little while, so right nearly meantime.
Speaker 1: That is it. We are done. We appreciate you hanging
Speaker 1: out with the NFL Fantasy Football Show. Do you know
Speaker 1: the drill? Tell two friends to tell two friends rate
Speaker 1: review and remember the worst part about becoming a zombie
Speaker 1: is all the walking you have to do. Be safe,
Speaker 1: take care of yourselves, and we will talk to you tomorrow.
