Welcome to New York City is the track 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:55.000 that Chris Bovona has chosen to bring us back to 0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:58.400 the fantasy freestyle. We dropped status over beats right here 0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:02.240 on the award winning Fantasy Sports radio Network. I'm your boys, 0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:05.280 speeds and spitting statistician. There's time to tell you what 0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:07.680 you need in baseball tonight so you can win your 0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:10.840 leagues and win that cash. I got some news and notes. 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:14.680 First of all, White Sox slugging outfield. The Avasail Garcia 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.320 has been activated from the disabled list. Remember he was 0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:21.360 battling that thumb injury. He had one rehab game at 0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:24.359 Trump Place, Charlotte. They have brought him up. The White 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:27.279 Sox doing that most likely because they are facing a 0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:30.839 left handed pitcher tonight in US for Houston Dallas Kiko, 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:34.320 so they need Garcia in that lineup. Remember that lineup 0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:37.000 used to be great against left handed pitching, but that 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:40.640 was before they traded away Todd Frasier. That was before 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:43.480 they traded away Melky Cabrera. So it's great to have 0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:47.279 Avasail Garcia back in the lineup for the White Sox. 0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:51.160 My man, the Diamondbacks starting pitcher Robbie Ray, who I've 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.520 been talking about all season long. Remember a couple of 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:56.479 weeks ago he got hit in the head by a 0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:59.200 line drive that came right back up the box. Was 0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:02.320 on the seven day a concussion d L. He um 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:04.560 is throwing off of a mound as part of his 0:05:04.640 --> 0:05:07.279 return and part of his rehab. The question is will 0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:10.080 he need to rehab start or will he once you know, 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:12.240 once he feels cleared by the doctors, be able to 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:15.320 get right back into Major League Baseball action. One thing 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:18.480 I will say real quick though about this seven day 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.360 d L. I think this is something Remember that UM 0:05:21.400 --> 0:05:24.159 the NFL was talking about adopting or others were saying 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:27.719 that if the NFL adapted, it would really change the 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:30.520 behavior of NFL players. Remember we talked about how they 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:32.120 hide injuries because they don't want to be on the 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:34.599 i R. Well, this is like a shorter term list 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:38.960 that NFL teams could use also as roster management. Important 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:42.120 to note something that we haven't gotten into recently. Remember 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:44.679 I did talk about the pain management the players safety. 0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:46.560 We're gonna talk about that a little bit more this 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.240 week at the end of the week on Friday. But 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:52.120 interesting to note how the Major League Baseball uses that 0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:56.760 seven day concussion DL. Twins third baseman Miguel so No 0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:59.840 Some people call him Sano, I call him Miguel so No. 0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:02.800 He was available off the bench last night. Remember he 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:05.000 got a hit by a pitch on his hand on Friday. 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:08.240 He is back in the lineup for Minnesota tonight. You 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:11.680 could probably start him with confidence. Similarly, the Red Sox 0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:16.560 have activated second baseman former m v P Dustin Pedroia. 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:19.400 He's coming back from a knee injury. All right. Last 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:23.200 night last night, um, there are only seven games on 0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:25.799 the slate. Max Scherr's what's at the top at about 0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:29.040 eleven thousand and he pitched well, nine strikeouts, giving up 0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:32.840 only two runs and seven innings for the Washington Nationals. 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:35.320 I told you a couple of other guys that you 0:06:35.360 --> 0:06:38.360 could have used. I talked about Irwin Santana against the 0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.400 Brewers because of their strikeout upside when facing the Brewers, 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:44.320 how much they strike out. Well, Irwin Santana, who was 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:47.560 not even a strikeout pitcher, as I mentioned yesterday, six 0:06:47.600 --> 0:06:50.480 strikeouts in six innings a k per nine, only giving 0:06:50.560 --> 0:06:53.159 up two runs got you a quality start. Hopefully that 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:55.120 helped you out. The only thing I wanted to talk about, though, 0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:57.920 I said it was going to be interesting to see 0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:00.800 that Angels Oriols game right, and I said, how J. 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:03.920 C Ramirez could be maybe consistent, would have a safe 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:07.159 floor and was decent in cash games, but wasn't going to, 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:10.880 you know, have the sexy strikeouts or anything like that. Well, 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:13.360 he did not pitch well, J c Ramirez. He gave 0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:15.760 up six runs. It was not safe. The guy on 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.560 the other side, though, was Dylan Bundy, and I said, 0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:20.440 he has a lot of variants. But if you get 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:22.880 good Dylan, it could be really good and it could 0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:25.880 help you win some cash. And last night, Dylan Bundy, 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:29.760 he performed for you. He struck out ten count them 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:33.520 ten Angels in seven innings, only giving up two runs. 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.960 He got the win as the Orioles beat the Angels 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:39.280 six to two last night. Hopefully you'll listen to me 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:43.360 on Dylan Bundy and One a little bit of cash tonight. However, 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:48.320 tonight we have a full fifteen games on the slate. Okay, 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:51.840 all major League teams are in action on the night slate, 0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:53.920 so a lot of options. At the top of the 0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:57.280 price chart, though, you got Corey Kluber and Chris Sale. 0:07:57.440 --> 0:08:00.640 Both of these guys are strikeout fiends. Both of these 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:02.960 these guys are in the top three in Major League 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:06.280 Baseball in terms of strikeout percentage at thirty five and 0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:10.320 thirty six percent. Over a third of the batters these 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:13.520 guys face strikeout. So if you want to spend up 0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:15.960 and pay for Corey Kluver, if you want to spend 0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:18.360 up and pay for Chris Sale tonight, I think it's 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:21.160 just fine. The one guy I do want to note, though, 0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:23.600 and I told you I've been talking about these Diamondbacks 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:27.320 pitchers for a while, my man, Zack Godly, Zack Godly 0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:30.240 tonight is at so if you need to save about 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:33.560 two thou dollars, you can. He is against that Dodgers lineup, 0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:36.600 and the Dodgers have been sick lately. But remember I've 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:39.240 been picking my spots against the Dodgers with some effect 0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:42.200 over the last month, over this wind streak for them, 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:44.920 and I think Godly could be an option. Godly has 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.440 been good his last two starts. He has not given 0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:51.160 up a run, gotten about a strike per strikeout per inning. 0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:56.280 So he is a viable option even against the Los 0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:59.280 Angeles Dodgers. All right, but here's the other thing. The 0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:02.839 other thing is that you know, and it's funny I 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:04.880 tell you this as we got people trying to get 0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:07.600 into the studio here at Studio thirty four and Rock 0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:11.160 and Riley's people want this information so much they are 0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:15.080 clamoring for it, barging into the studio because they want 0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:18.120 to know not only what starters, but listen, what you 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:20.720 gotta do in DFS is you gotta stack. You gotta 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:24.040 find the right stacks. Okay, where you're putting multiple bats 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:28.320 from the same offense. That's a big time strategy. And DFS, 0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:30.120 I'm over here not giving you a fish, but teaching 0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:32.719 you how to fish. So we're gonna try to identify 0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:34.680 a couple of stacks today. And this is where you 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:38.760 find pictures that you can target against and try to play. 0:09:38.840 --> 0:09:41.520 And then when that team, you know, scores ten eleven runs, 0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:43.920 you get a lot of the production and you win 0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:46.600 all the money. And that's what we try to do here. 0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:49.199 Drop stats over beating up you win cash on the 0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:51.400 Fantasy Freestyle. So I got a couple of stacks that 0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:54.480 I think are interesting. First of all, the Mets are 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:58.880 starting a guy named Flexing. He's do do so. I 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:02.280 like the Rangers in City Field tonight. I like uh 0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:05.080 stack of the lefties in the Rangers lineup going up 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.640 against this, right, I'm talking about Shin su Chu. I'm 0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:10.559 talking about Nomar Mazzara. These are guys at the top 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:14.200 of the Rangers order. I like both of them. And 0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:18.440 here's the other thing. Yesterday, Tony on the DFS Lineup 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.720 Block Show said something that I thought was absolutely crazy. 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.760 But I'm gonna follow his lead and I'm gonna give 0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:29.920 it out as a strategy tonight, I'm stacking the San 0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:35.040 Diego Padres, the team with the worst offense in all 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:38.400 of baseball, with the least run scored in all of baseball. 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:41.720 I am stacking them tonight. In tournament, sometimes you got 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:43.720 a zig when other people's you know what I mean. 0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:47.000 So sometimes you gotta hit them. You gotta find opportunities 0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:49.880 where they might pop off, okay, and there is no 0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:53.080 better opportunity going from San Diego in that Pictures Ballpark. 0:10:53.400 --> 0:10:56.560 They are playing at Cincinnati at the beginning part of 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:59.959 this week, at the Great American Small Park, where every 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.480 one seems to hit it out, and they're facing a 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:05.000 guy named sal Romano. This is a guy would have 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:08.160 over seven e r A. I think the Padres are 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:12.319 primed to score some runs tonight. So I am stacking Padres. 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:16.240 I'm talking Will Myers, I'm talking young Gervous Solarte, I'm 0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:21.360 talking um Manny marg or Hunter renfro Um. You know 0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:24.800 I'm putting them in my lineups. Actually, Renfro's not in 0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:28.400 the lineup. Manny mar go is, though, okay, hitting leadoff there. 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:30.720 Like I said, I like so Larte in the four hole. 0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:34.720 I like Will Myers in the five hole in that 0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:37.800 line up, stacking in the Great American small park against 0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:40.800 Sal Romano. I also have an interesting punt play that 0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:42.480 I want to tell you about if you're looking for 0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:47.600 a cheap option at shortstop. Adrian Sanchez is only two 0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:51.880 thousand dollars on fan duel. Okay, this guy rarely plays, 0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:54.800 but he's in the second spot of this lineup. Remember 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:57.960 it's all about opportunity. This is a guy at the 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:01.800 bare minimum on fans that is hitting in the two 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:05.880 spot of the Washington Nationals order, right in front of 0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:09.720 Bryce Harper, right in front of guys like Zimmerman and Rendon. 0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:12.720 I think that is a great place to be. He's 0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:15.880 gonna hit, He's gonna see great pitches to hit all 0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:18.320 day long, and up in this two hole. You're gonna 0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:21.400 get multiple at batch. You might get another chance, you know, 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:24.000 and all the then extra three points and extra six 0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:27.200 points that might help you. So I am going with 0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:30.320 Adrian Sanchez and the two spots for the Washington Nationals. 0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:33.600 The other interesting play tonight. You may not think about it, 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:35.640 but Russell Martin is in the two hole for Toronto 0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.559 and he's facing c. C. Sabathia. He's a right e. 0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:42.679 Sabathia is a lefty, but he caught CC Sabathia for 0:12:42.840 --> 0:12:47.520 multiple seasons. So I'm betting tonight that Russell Martin has 0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:49.920 a little bit of in knows some of the tendencies 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.480 of C. C. Sabathio, what he might try to go 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:56.200 to to get an out pitch. I like my stack 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:58.679 of the Padres, my stack of the Rangers. I'm putting 0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:01.760 with Adrian Gonza a Jan Sanchez, and I like Russell 0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:04.760 Martin in the catcher spot. Um, but I gotta tell 0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:06.920 you the truth. I went Chris Sale at the top 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:09.960 of the board at eleven thousand, four hundred. Those strikeouts 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:14.400 are going to be there. Hopefully you want some money 0:13:14.600 --> 0:13:17.080 when we come back, though, we're gonna turn the page. 0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:18.960 We're gonna go to football.

And I gotta tell you something, Chris. 0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:51.120 I know he is very excited because we go team 0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:54.960 by team here on Fantasy Freestyle, and today we're talking 0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:58.040 New York Football Giants. So he's gonna hear what I 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.920 think about his hometown team, and he's gonna be able 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:03.560 to chime in as well. Before we get to that, though, 0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:06.680 we got some news and notes in the cipher around 0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:08.920 the NFL. Remember, training camps are open, so we're gonna 0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:12.240 hear a lot of buzz. We're also, unfortunately, gonna hear 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:16.720 more on injuries because apparently football is a violent game. 0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:19.000 Let's start off on the good news the buzz. Okay, 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:22.160 in New England, they're saying that Tom Brady is going 0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.720 to new tight end Duane Allen a ton, especially in 0:15:25.720 --> 0:15:28.040 the red zone parts of practice. I think that's a 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:30.880 smart move by the Patriots to build up Duyne Allen 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:34.680 for a number of reasons. As you know, Gronkowsi has 0:15:34.760 --> 0:15:37.800 not been reliable health wise, has that back, so you 0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:40.120 gotta see what you got in Dwayne Allen. But also 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:44.160 remember The Patriots have been trying to employ the two 0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:47.880 tight end kind of threat and too tight end package 0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:51.800 ever back, ever since they had Aaron the Murderer Hernandez 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:54.880 on their roster as well, So they are trying to 0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:58.640 do that. More buzz in Kansas City about rookie running 0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:01.680 back Kareem Hunt. I feel like a broken record at 0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:04.200 this point. They're saying Kareem Hunt is now getting more 0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:08.280 first team reps at practice. That is a bad sign 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:11.200 for a guy like Spencer Ware. If you happen to 0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:14.640 own Spencer wear in any Dynasty formats, he should be 0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:18.520 plummeting down your draft board. It looks like Kareem Hunt 0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:22.600 even as a chance to win this job in preseason. 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:26.040 Keep an eye on that. I would not be surprised 0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:29.800 if Kareem Hunt is the lead back in Kansas City 0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:35.600 before too long. They also say that Christian Hackenberg was 0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:38.920 getting first team reps with the New York Jets. I 0:16:38.960 --> 0:16:41.240 think this is just because they need to rotate him 0:16:41.280 --> 0:16:44.640 in and get, you know, some experience. I don't think 0:16:44.680 --> 0:16:47.160 this means that he's going to be the starter. I 0:16:47.200 --> 0:16:49.480 think McCown is ultimately going to be the starter. But 0:16:49.520 --> 0:16:52.600 if you want to tank, Christian Hackenberg could be the 0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:56.720 quarterback to do it. Also, in Seattle, they've got a 0:16:56.800 --> 0:16:58.880 split of reps, so the first team reps for the 0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:02.800 running backs, whether it's Thomas Rawls or Eddie Lacey. Also, 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:06.000 I want to say about Eddie Lacey. He apparently did 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:08.800 in fact make his weight. Remember, he's got those incentive 0:17:08.840 --> 0:17:11.159 clauses in his contract where he has to kind of 0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:14.240 stay he has to stay at pounds or less, okay, 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:16.160 and there was some concern that he did not make 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:18.640 his target for the beginning of August. They have announced 0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:20.879 that he did in fact make his weight target. He 0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:24.639 did get a bonus of fifty dollars for doing so. 0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:27.480 We're also hearing news out of these football giants that 0:17:27.800 --> 0:17:31.280 Eli Manning and Brandon Marshall are getting on the same 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:33.720 page starting to build that chemistry. I believe it will 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:35.840 be a little bit easier because both of these guys 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:37.920 are veterans. Both of these guys know how to get 0:17:37.960 --> 0:17:40.840 themselves ready for the season and what little subtle cues 0:17:41.160 --> 0:17:43.560 to pick up on. We're doing the NFC East, and 0:17:43.560 --> 0:17:45.119 I gotta tell you the truth. Part of the reason 0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:48.600 we are doing the Cowboys last this week is because 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:51.600 we still have yet to hear any word from the 0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:54.919 NFL about a suspension for Zeke Elliott. There's word that 0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:57.240 it is coming down any day this week, so we 0:17:57.280 --> 0:18:00.119 are gonna keep tuned for that. That will obviously have 0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:03.080 an impact in what you do at the top of 0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:08.240 the draft at the running back position. Also, uh today, 0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:10.439 I don't know if you heard, but Spike Lee, you know, 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:13.560 director was holding a rally in New York City at 0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:17.960 the NFL offices today, a rally and support of Colin Kaepernick. 0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:20.720 This story will not continue, but I think it's kind 0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:24.240 of a uh catch twenty two. You know, he's having protests, 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:25.960 you know, to support him and stuff like that. But 0:18:26.040 --> 0:18:28.920 this is exactly part of the reason why teams don't 0:18:29.000 --> 0:18:31.680 want him as a backup quarterback. You want no kind 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:34.960 of stories or drama around your backup quarterback. And this 0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:38.240 may not help the cause, even though Spike Lee maybe 0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:41.760 trying to. But as you know, it is getting to 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:44.320 be time where we're starting to talk about fantasy football. 0:18:44.520 --> 0:18:47.080 I know their drafts starting to go on as early 0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:50.080 as this week. Some of you are drafting already, and 0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:52.000 let me tell you something.

Let's 0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:04.800 talk about the New York Giants here. Okay. I first 0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:08.000 of all, I love this defense. I love this defense. 0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:11.679 They go three cornerbacks deep. I love them up front 0:20:11.720 --> 0:20:15.600 with guys like Jpp my Man Snacks, Damon Harrison, the 0:20:15.640 --> 0:20:18.960 former Jet Olivia Vernon coming off the edge. I think 0:20:19.000 --> 0:20:23.119 this is primed to be a top five defense. Here's 0:20:23.160 --> 0:20:26.840 the problem, and this is something Giant fans have not 0:20:27.000 --> 0:20:31.800 heard in ten or fifteen years. The problem with the 0:20:31.840 --> 0:20:37.840 New York Giants is the quarterback position. Let me say 0:20:37.840 --> 0:20:41.760 that again. The problem with the New York Giants is 0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:46.159 the quarterback position. Eli Manning is getting to the age 0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:49.159 where people fall off a cliff. He was quarterback twenty 0:20:49.200 --> 0:20:52.800 one last year, got his four thousand yards, okay, had 0:20:52.920 --> 0:20:57.879 twenty six touchdowns, but he had sixteen interceptions. You know 0:20:57.920 --> 0:21:03.200 what other quarterbacks had sixteen interceptions last year, Blake Bortles 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:10.120 and Brock Osweidler. That's how many interceptions Eli Manning is throwing. 0:21:10.440 --> 0:21:13.480 I think father Time is undefeated. I watched the Giants 0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:16.160 hands I'm here in New York. Some of those interceptions 0:21:16.160 --> 0:21:19.359 were just straight ugly. Okay, there is no reason to 0:21:19.400 --> 0:21:22.520 believe that in his mid thirties, Eli Manning is all 0:21:22.520 --> 0:21:25.880 of a sudden gonna bounce back or have a better season. 0:21:26.200 --> 0:21:30.000 So I'm a little bit low. I'm fading Eli Manning. Okay, 0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:34.200 I do. Here's the other thing, and this is similar 0:21:34.240 --> 0:21:38.840 to like Cincinnati with Andy Dalton, this is similar to 0:21:39.400 --> 0:21:43.119 Los Angeles with Philip Rivers. These are teams that decided 0:21:43.160 --> 0:21:47.040 to support their quarterbacks by adding playmakers on the outside 0:21:47.480 --> 0:21:50.920 as opposed to the offensive line. And I don't like it. 0:21:51.040 --> 0:21:53.560 I told you in the Bengals how they let their 0:21:53.560 --> 0:21:56.400 offensive lineman go, but then you know brought in John, 0:21:56.640 --> 0:22:01.919 Joe Ross and Joe Mixon. Well, the offensive line for 0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:04.360 the Giants is still one of the five to tend 0:22:04.480 --> 0:22:08.560 worst in the National Football League. But instead they decided 0:22:08.600 --> 0:22:12.440 to invest their money on Brandon marshalliz another weapon outside. 0:22:13.720 --> 0:22:16.440 And I think you know you've got Oldell Beckham. He's 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:19.040 obviously one of the top wide receivers. He's obviously a 0:22:19.080 --> 0:22:21.399 first round pick. This guy, Oldell Beckham. I'm talking a 0:22:21.440 --> 0:22:25.480 hundred and one catches, over hundred yards, ten touchdowns. He 0:22:25.520 --> 0:22:28.240
