Speaker 1 (00:11):
Who waiver claims have to be made, and I've got
trade proposals for lying my way. My first round pig
turned out to be a big flop. I don't know
(00:32):
which wide receiver I need to drive, Doctor roto give
me the news. I really don't know what I should do.
My quarterback keeps getting sacked. I've got a bad case
of fan deceive blue.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
With It's the fastest thirty minutes in major market radio
and ross. Did you know the Doctor rode besides being
the number one fantasy football expert in America, is an
accomplished volleyball player and coach.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I did not know that about that? Rode Up. It's awesome.
It's a great sport. The tournament's is getting fired up
and then turnament. Yes, rode On, how the hell are you?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I'm doing great. I was so proud of your daughter.
Be a starting center. You are.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
I so we gotta get it. Our goal is to
be a ten freshman of the year. We're gonna work
on that for next year. We gotta get up there first.
Pressure All right, let me ask you this, because I
think the Cowboys are toast the rest of the way,
and there's other teams that are already long, set and done.
How are we feeling, generally speaking about the vegas Is
of the world, the Jets, some of our fantasy football
(01:42):
players that are long out of the playoffs? Can we
can we still thrive on them on Sundays? Are we
worried as hell about how ambitious they are? Like I'll
give you an example. George Pickens last night against the
Detroit Lions.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Man didn't it look like he was jogging in the field.
I mean, there was a play at the end, we're
back through that bomb. He just laid up. I mean,
I don't know whether he's injured. I'm not sure what's
going on. But when you want a big contract, which
we know Pickens does, you can't be doing stuff like that.
So I think you answer ask a really great question.
So years ago on Sirius XM Fantasy Sports Radio, I
(02:15):
had Jake Arians on Bruce Arians' son and I was
talking about, you know, to our teams trying for next
year's top pick. He goes, players don't think that way.
Players want to win, right, even if they haven't won
a game all year. Nobody wants to lose. So I
think the key is in fantasy look is Ashton Genti
is still a good fantasy player. He is, He's just
(02:35):
on a bad team. I think what you're going to
see as we move forward are these incentives. And I
know that happens a lot in week seventeen and eighteen.
If this guy gets a certain number of yards, he
gets an extra two hundred and fifty thousand, extra five
hundred thousands. You got to pay attention to those things.
So when I see those things, I'll certainly bring them
up on air for people because that'll help deciding who
(02:56):
to start. But obviously this is why when we draft
early in August, we want players on good teams, because
players on the bad teams, like the Jets, they're not
going far all right.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Speaking of two teams that had lousy weekends last Sunday,
Pittsburgh was atrocious in the second half. Baltimore kept turning
the ball over. How we feel about anybody in skill
positions between the Steelers and the Ravens this week, You're.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Gonna laugh at me. I think I told you last
week I like Carolina to play well against the Rams,
and they did. I think Lamar Jackson's got a great week.
I do. I think He's gonna have a great week.
Just when you bury guys, just when you think that
they're gonna do nothing, they start to do something. Now,
Pittsburgh also plays a lot of singul high man coverage,
and that's Zave. Flowers loves that. So Lamar to Zay
(03:42):
feels like something that's gonna win people money this week
in DFS. I think Lamar is a good play. Mark
Andrews is a good play. Garrett Henry is a good play.
On the other side, I don't really love any Steelers.
I mean, maybe DK Metcalf, but I don't love it.
Maybe Jalen Warren, but I think Baltimore rolls on this one.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
I'm hoping you're right about Zay Flowers. He got me
a minus four point four. I've been better use just
forgetting about the position and getting zero as compared to
my I mean too fumble, terrible, terrible. I digress Indianapolis
and Jacksonville. Did you see what Jonathan Taylor didn't do
against the Texans defense this past week? And what does
that mean for this week? At Jacksonville.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I think this is gonna be a really good game.
It's one of the highest scoring games in the flight.
And look, they have to feed Jonathan Taylor. He hasn't
had one of those three touchdown weeks in a long time, right,
so maybe he gets one this week. But I think
this is gonna be a competitive game. Daniel Jones in play.
I really like Michael Pittman this week, and I really
like Tyler warn and I like Taylor. On the other side.
(04:43):
Will we ever see a Brian Thomas junior game? This
could be it. There's no Sauce Gardner, so there should
be no excuses. And also Brenton Strange Indianapolis very soft
against the tight end. Strange has been terrific since he's
been back from the IR I like him a lot.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Sandy shocked the world and knocked off the Ravens last
Sunday on Thanksgiving. They're going to Buffalo this week. First
of all, where are we on t Higgins? And how
do you like this matchup between these two teams?
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Yeah, last I saw, T Higgins is expected to play,
So that's a great thing. So you've got Cincinnati firing
on all its cylinders. Now. The other thing is Buffalo
without two key defensive players. So they Torell Bernard, their
best linebacker is out and Joey Bosa is out, so
you're not going to get the pass rush, You're not
(05:32):
going to get some tackling. I think there's gonna be
a wide open game. So let's talk about the players.
You want. You want Josh Allen, you want James Cook,
you want Shakir. I'm hoping that Dalton Kincaid comes back.
If he comes back, he's a must play. Cincinnati is
the worst team in the league against opposing tight ends.
If not, I'd played Dawson Knocks. No problem. On the
other side, Burrow, great start, Chase Brown, great start, Higgins,
(05:56):
Chase load up this game. This game is in the fifties,
highest scoring game on the slate. I think it can
end up in the sixties.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Wow, all right. Jane Daniels sounds like he's back for
the Commanders. We'll make a difference for them at Minnesota.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I think, look, it'll make a difference, and he's certainly back.
I think it helps Deebo Samuel, I think, I mean
zach Ertz, Terry McLaurin. This could be a wide open
game because you have two defenses that haven't been great.
So the question is everybody's done well against the Commander's defense.
Can j J. McCarthy, because if he can, then I mean,
(06:30):
isn't Justin Jefferson finally in play? We haven't seen Justin
Jefferson do anything in quite some time. I think another
guy is really sneaky. Is Jordan Mason. If Aaron Jones
is out and he's not a sure thing. So I
love Justin Jefferson. I potentially love Jordan Mason. On the
other side, I'm with you on Daniels, I'm with you
on McLaurin, Deebo, Samuel and Zach Ertz. I'll stay away
(06:51):
from Chris Rodriguez.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
We as America except the win for the Windy City
Rodo are waiting for the Chicago Bears burst, bubble to burst?
Is it happened in Green Bay this Sunday?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah? I think it bursts. I do so right now.
Kyle Manongai is questionable. Roman Donza is questionable. He's a
little bit more doubtful than questionable, but so a sneaky
start is. I like Luther Burton. I think he's interesting
in this one. I obviously like DeAndre Swift on the
other side, one of my locks of the week, and I'm
(07:23):
gonna give you it's not no Locker of the Week,
but it's close. I think Josh Jacobs has a game.
I think he has a game. I think he scores.
I think green Bay is a better team. Chicago has
been is extremely well coached and they are schemed up,
but they're not really that good. I don't know how
they're doing it. I really don't. So I like Jacobs
this week. I like Christian Watson, I like Romeo Doobbs,
(07:45):
and like I said Burton, I'd be a DFS flyer.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
This game between Philly and the Chargers on Monday night
is so intriguing. Chargers want to keep momentum and keep
this little fy their spot in the AFC Wild Card.
Philadelphia has been mid for a six or seven weeks.
We don't like West teams going east. How do we
feel about East teams going west? And can Jalen Hurts
with get that mojo back for that Eagles offense this
(08:10):
Monday Night?
Speaker 3 (08:11):
I don't know. This game feels messy to me because
you have two good defensive teams, you have good offensive players,
but look, Justin Herbert's not one hundred percent, that's for sure.
I expect Hampton to be back and I expect him
to be integrated in that offense and running the football
with Batal. I like lad Mconky a little bit, but
I lack any of these receivers. Dad's in McConkie, keenan Allen.
(08:34):
You start them. But this is not one of those
boom weeks, right. This is one of those games where
it's like, I don't know, twenty four to twenty one,
twenty one, twenty something, a little ugly like that. On
the other side, I don't know whether a J. Broll
makes a big play. I do like Barkley a little bit.
You always play Jalen Hurts, but man, it's so hard
to watch Jalen Hurts. If they got rid of the
(08:56):
push push, I mean, this guy would be a bulow
average quarterback.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Now seven one three, two one two five seven. And
if you got a question for Rodos seven one three,
two one two five seven, one will take those. In
the second segment, Houston Texans defense best defense they've had
maybe in the history of the franchise. Second worst at
the second best of the very worst. They are playing hot.
They're beating up on good teams or second quarterbacks. Buffalo
Indianapolis an impressive run as of late, but going to
(09:23):
Kansas City different animal, cool weather Mahomes having a great season,
but he's got a decimated offensive line. I've set it
up for your rodo forgetting about the end result and
who you like or don't like in terms of winning
the game, who are playing and who is sitting between
the Texans and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Yeah, you don't want to start text and running backs. Okay,
if they are going to win this game, I think
it has to be with c. J. Stroud, and then
it has to be with Nico Collins, daland Schultz has
been great and by the way, Jayden Higgins is coming
into his own He's looked pretty darn good recently. So
I think all those guys are in play. You're not
going to start what you're certainly not going to start.
(10:02):
Just don't even think about those through that first stretch up.
But if the Texans can just stop the Chiefs pass
rush and give Stroud a little time, Stroud, Collins, Schultz,
Kiggins are all potentially decent starts on the other side,
Easy Pasy, Mahomes, yes, Rice, Yes, Kelsey, Yes, forget Kareem Hunt,
forget Pacheco, for worthyse may on the borderline if you'd
(10:25):
like to have one of those, you know, Sunday night
Monday games. I have no problems starting him, but I
think this is this game is all about defense, It's
all about tactical you know, maybe more punts than we're
used to. So sadly, this is not a boom fantasy game.
This is more like field position, field goal. You know, fairband,
(10:46):
butker guys like that, So be careful starting too many
guys in this game.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
So you think it's a little scoring, I think now
all of America at this point thinks it's can be
a little scoring game.
Who waiver claims have to be made, and I've got
trade proposals for lying my way. My first round pig
turned out to be a big flop. I don't know
(00:32):
which wide receiver I need to drive, Doctor roto give
me the news. I really don't know what I should do.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I did not know that about that? Rode Up. It's awesome.
It's a great sport. The tournament's is getting fired up
and then turnament. Yes, rode On, how the hell are you?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I'm doing great. I was so proud of your daughter.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City.

We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
