Speaker 1 (00:10):
Who waiver claims have to be made, and I've got
trade proposals for ly in my way. My first round
pig turned out to be a big flop. I don't
(00:31):
know 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 cass of fair deceive blue with one of five.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
On Sports Talk SEVENARTI, we're going to one thirty five.
You don't know if he knows we're taking onto one
thirty five. We need thirty strong minutes from our leader,
the greatest fantasy football mind in the world today. He's
got ninety five Fantasy league. He's on seventy three different
serious XM shows. Doctor rodal hallahll are you.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
That's about it? See, I'm ready to go. Maybe thirty
minutes of action. Let's do it all right.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
So we've never done Friday's on a regular base. We're
gonna this year because it was a little better for
your schedule. We got to take care of you. So
it gives us an opportunity to reflect on what we
saw last night. So we'll do that each week. What
did you think about the fantasy performers in the Dallas
Philadelphia game.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
You know, normally I'm not a big Dak Prescott guy.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
He played pretty well. It was C. D.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Lambar didn't come up with the big catches. I didn't
really like to play call on fourth and three at
the end of that game, but that was that was
a catchable ball. Ferguson dropped a couple. I mean, that
was a winnable game for Dallas. I think Javonte Williams
people were down on him, and look, Jayden Bluten even
wasn't even active. So Janday Williams is the clear number
one of that offense. Miles Sanders had a bad fumble,
(02:02):
but he looked good too. On the other side, it's
Jalen Hurts and more. Jalen Hurts Barkley look good, but
you really have to wonder there. I know Dallas's cornerback's
played well against Brown and Smith, but Hurts is just
a much better runner than he is a pastor. I
know they'll be good games for aj Brown, but I
would be a little worried, all.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Right, So Jalen Hurts proves I don't need to throw
for two forty five and three scores. I'm gonna use
my legs a couple times per game. That should be
a huge benefit and benefit for anybody that draft the
Jalen hurts correct.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
It is, I mean, and that's the differentiator. So look,
even if he throws twenty touchdown passes, if he runs
for fourteen, I mean, that's like throwing for another twenty
touchdown passes. So as long as he stays healthy, he
is Fantasy gold. And we can say the same thing
about Jayden Daniels, Josh Allen, and Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
All right, let's get to the slight. We'll start tonight.
Interesting local again, going back to Brazil for Kansas City
and the LA Chargers. Two things I want to ask
you about this game. In particular, I did draft Travis
Kelcey's my ten my Titan, hoping for a bounce back season.
I thought maybe his downfall is a little early to
talk about, but justin Herbert is very, very slow starter,
(03:15):
but still beloved by the fantasy football eyes. Give me
a forecast about Kansas City generally speaking, not only tonight,
but you see from them and the Chargers this year,
especially if Herbert is off to the sole start like
he was last season.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
So the Chiefs want to open up their passing attack.
They worked on their offensive line and Mahomes and has
talked about it as well. They want to throw the
ball deep. I think Xavier Worthy is absolutely quite a
great play right now. He is Kelsey solid, not spectacular,
but solid. I think they're going to ramp him up
as the year goes on, but they're going to need
(03:50):
him without Rashi Rice or she Rice is missing the
first six weeks and then he'll be back after that.
But Checko is there and he's strong. So but the
problem you have with which you have with the Chiefs
is without Rice, you got Juju Smith Schuster, you have
Hollywood Brown, who's not one hundred percent. You just don't
have great other options. So I think you're gonna see
(04:11):
a lot of Pacheco and a lot of Worthy and
some Kelsey.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
But it won't matter because the Chiefs.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Always figured out if they're if they're down by six
with two minutes to go, are you worried that Mahomes
is not gonna lead them to a score.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
They always seem to.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
On the other side, I really like what the Chargers
are doing. We're losing Rashaun Slater was.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
A tough, tough loss.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
But O'marion Hampton and Najie Harris will help with ball control,
which is you know how Jim Harbaugh wants to win games.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Now.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
Keenan Allen is back. Lad McConkey is sensational. He's a
tough one to stop. But I think that the Chargers
they're not gonna let Herbert throw it for more than
thirty five times. So I'm thinking this game right now,
Vegas is seeing it as a forty six and a half.
That seems about right. Maybe twenty four to twenty three
Chiefs pull this one out at the end.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
If you've got a question for doctor Ronto seven to one,
three two one two, five, seven, Honey will take him.
And in segment number two of the shows seven to
one to three, two one, two, five, seven and eight,
we've got two quarterbacks that we didn't think would be
starting this week. We're talking about Daniel Jones Indianapolis Joe
Flacco in Cleveland. Forgetting about their individual numbers, how about
(05:15):
the receivers and running backs they're going to use in
their s goo positions in those two particular games.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Yeah, So I want you guys to think about Anthony
Richardson as a point guard who doesn't pass the ball,
and everybody else is running up and down the court
and they never touch the ball. It gets frustrating. So
Daniel Jones will find Michael Pittman. He will find Josh Downs.
I love Josh Downs.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
This week he will.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Find Tyler Warren, their great new rookie tight end. Anthony
Richardson was completing nine passes a game. I think this
is actually good for the Colts. And if you play
in DFS, I.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Think Daniel Jones you can get him on the cheap.
You really can.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
So, I mean, I think he's in a better spot
than people are anticipating. I like that game to explode
a little bit in the dome tua a chan waddle.
I think that game could have fifty points in it.
On the other side, look Cincinnati and Cleveland. Cleveland always
plays Cincinnati tough because they have a really good pass
rush and they don't give Joe Borrow enough time.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Cincinnati's got a terrible defense. We know this.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Would it shock you if Joe Flacco threw for two
hundred and sixty yards this week? It wouldn't shock me
at all. I think he can throw for two sixty
and two touchdowns. They still have Jerry Judy, they have
Cedric Tillman, and they have David Njoku, who I think
is a great start this week.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
All right, doctor Throto again, whether you're on the phones
at seven one three two one two five seven, Andy,
if you have any questions for the good Doc, you'll
take him in the next segment. Your gut feeling on
Aaron Rodgers going back to where he played last year,
and the thought of the Steelers quarterback at your age
forty one.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Yeah, I mean this is desperate times called for desperate measures,
and bringing in Rogers just feels like.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
A desperate move.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
But but it couldn't bring them to the playoffs again,
I mean, Mike and they might even win a game,
but look, he's not going to throw for three hundred yards.
Jalen Warren is fine. He's a very good blocking running
back and he can catch out of the backfield. I
think he'll get about twelve fantasy points. A lot of
people have invested into DK Metcalf. I don't think I have.
DK's not DeVante Adams. He runs different routes than DeVante Adams.
(07:12):
I think Aaron Rodgers just a guy that I really Look,
you could root for the Steelers. They'll play great defense.
This is not a good fantasy game. I mean, justin
Field should do well. But who do they have to
throw to outside of Garrett Wilson, Nobody? Maybe Breis Hall
gets a few receptions. This is just a game to
stay away from.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Why are so many people high on Drake May and
the Patriots especially? Is it because of their home schedules
because the Raiders are coming in? But Drake was getting
a lot of I would say mid level quarterbacks elections
in drafts this year.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
I love Drake May this year.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Look, he had nobody to throw the ball to last year.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
So what do they do. They bring in Stefan Dicks. Now,
what do they do?
Speaker 4 (07:52):
They draft Trayvon Henderson, who they think is going to
get eighty plus receptions. Oh, by the way, they bring
in Kyle Williams, who was a really good speed receiver
from Washington State.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Now you're giving Drake May some options.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
He was great in college when he had Josh Downs
and Devon sees Walker to throw to. He just had
nobody to throw to last year. Now you got a
real coach with Mike Rabel I think this team is
onto something now the Raiders. It's gonna be an interesting game.
I really like Ashton Genty. I think he scores a
touchdown this week. But if the Patriots want to compete,
this is a game they have to win. Drake May
(08:25):
is also very mobile.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Look for him.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
I would say about two hundred and forty passing yards,
maybe one passing touchdown, maybe another forty yards.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Rushing Texans this week in Los Angeles. Matthew Stafford. We've
been told the back is okay. He's practiced for the
last couple of weeks. Texans offensive line is still a
huge question mark. We've got probably not probably there will
be no Christian Kirk this week, but generally speaking, I
think this is gonna be a low scoring game. Does
(08:53):
that mean I want to stay away for some folks
in this game? Or am I still going to pick
up my normal Texans and my normal Rams when they
meet Sunday in Los Angeles?
Speaker 4 (09:00):
No Vegas agrees with you, MT. We're talking about like
forty three and a half points. Here's the issue. The
Rams strength on defense is their pass rush. And what's
the Texans issue? You know, protecting c J. Stroud So
if they can get him anytime, then Nico Collins is
in play. But I think he's gonna be under siege
all game long. I mean, this is what the Rams
(09:20):
do well. They don't have a great linebacking cores, they
don't have a great secondary, but they get to the passer.
On the other end, it's going to be about the
Kira and Williams show. Can the Texans stop Kiraen Williams?
Speaker 3 (09:31):
I think they can.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
I think they can even hold pokinakuhan check. But let's
not forget Devonte Adams as a Ram now. So I
think that the Texans this is just a bad first
matchup for them because the Rams do what the Texans do,
they just might do it a little bit better. It's
really about effort and his health.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
All right, for you, go to our first break time
now for these sports RV Rossville Realite Progatory. One question
for Rodo per week. What I guy, I'm giving you
one question.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Your segment because here, Rodo, we're.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Playing each other this week and we okay, well, you
know it is difficult. What is the best way to
continue the excellence after back to back to back championship? Okay,
maybe I shouldn't.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Ask him that.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
How we've Okay, I tell me what you think about this,
doctor Rhodo. I was in three drafts picking forth and third,
and every time it came down to Jamiir Gibbs and
Saquon Barkley, And every time I chose Saquon Barkley. How
dumb am I?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
One to ten, seven and a half?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Okay, are you not worried about You're not worried about
David Montgomery?
Speaker 4 (10:36):
No, okay, you know what we saw at the end
of last year that gives basically fed families. That guy
brought you to Fantasy championship.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
Montgy, God bless you.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yeah, Montgomery's gonna be hurt.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
Yeah, last night, look at what Jalen Hurts did.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
That's true, And that was Ross's obligatory question per week.
We'll do that and again next Friday was seven and
a half out of ten. But I'm still back to back
to back champ. He's so cocky too, rode O.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Wow, seriously, I got lucky.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
I got lucky, all right, four six, Your phone calls
seven to one, three.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
And they never touched the ball. It gets frustrating. So
Daniel Jones will find Michael Pittman. He will find Josh Downs.
I love Josh Downs. This week he will find Tyler Warren.
Their great new rookie tight end. Anthony Richardson was completing
nine passes a game. I think this is actually good
for the Colts. And if you play in DFS, I
think Daniel Jones you can get him on the cheap.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
You really can.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
So, I mean, I think he's in a better spot
than people are anticipating. I like that game to explode
a little bit in the dome tu a chan Waddle.
I think that game could have fifty points in it.
On the other side, look Cincinnati and Cleveland. Cleveland always
plays Cincinnati tough because they have a really good pass rush,
and they don't give Joe Borrow enough time.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Cincinnati's got a terrible defense. We know this.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
Would it shock you if Joe Flacco threw for two
hundred and sixty yards this week, It wouldn't shock me
at all. I think he can throw for two s
two touchdowns. They still have Jerry Judy, they have Cedric Tillman,
and they have David Njoku, who I think is a
great start this week.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
All right, doctor Row again, whether you're on the phones
at seven, one, three, two, two, five, seven, any if
you have any questions for the good Doc, you'll take
him in the next segment. Your gut feeling on Aaron
Rodgers going back to where he played last year, and
the thought of the Steelers quarterback at your age forty one.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Yeah, I mean this is desperate times called for desperate measures,
and bringing in Rogers just feels like a desperate move.
But but it couldn't bring them to the playoffs again.
I mean, Mike and they might even win a game,
but look, he's not going to throw for three hundred yards.
Jalen Warren is fine. He's a very good blocking running
back and he can catch out of the backfield. I
think he'll get about twelve fantasy points. A lot of
(12:45):
people have invested into DK Metcalf. I don't think I have.
DK's not DeVante Adams. He runs different routes than DeVante Adams.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I think Aaron.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Rodgers just a guy that I really look. You could
root for the Steelers. They'll play great defense. This is
not a good fantasy game.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
I mean, justin field should.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
Do well, but who do they have to throw to
outside of Garrett Wilson. Nobody maybe breist Hall gets a
few receptions. This is just a game to stay away from.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Why are so many people high on Drake May and
the Patriots especially? Is it because of their home schedules
because the Raiders are coming in, But Drake was getting
a lot of I would say mid level quarterbacks elections
in drafts this year.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
I love Drake May this year.
Speaker 4 (13:25):

Speaker 3 (13:28):
So what do they do? They bring in Stefan Dicks.
Now what do they do?
Speaker 4 (13:32):
They draft Trayveon Henderson, who they think is going to
get eighty plus receptions. Oh, by the way, they bring
in Kyle Williams, who was a really good speed receiver
from Washington State.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Now you're giving Drake made some options.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
He was great in college when he had Josh Downs
and devontees Walker to throw to. He just had nobody
to throw to last year. Now you got a real
coach with Mike Rabel. I think this team is onto something.
Now the Raiders, it's going to be an interesting game.
I really like Ashton Genty. I think he scores a
touchdown this week. But if the Patriots want to compete,
this is a game they have to win.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Drake May is also very mobile. Look for him.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
I would say about two hundred and forty passing yards,
maybe one passing touchdown, maybe another forty yards.

So if they can forget him anytime, then Nico Collins
is in play. But I think he's going to be
under siege all game. I mean, this is what the
Rams do well. They don't have a great line knocking corps.
They don't have a great secondary, but they get to
the passer on the other end. It's going to be
about the Kira and Williams show. Can the Texans stop
Kiraen Williams.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
I think they can.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
I think they could even hold Pukua Coulan check. But
let's not forget Devonte Adams as a Ram now, so
I think that the Texans this is just a bad
first matchup for them because the Rams do what the
Texans do, they just might do it a little bit better.
It's really about effort and his health.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
All right, for you to.

Cincinnati's got a terrible defense. We know this.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Would it shock you if Joe Flacco threw for two
hundred and sixty yards this week? It wouldn't shock me
at all. I think he can throw for two sixty
and two touchdowns. They still have Jerry Judy, they have
Cedric Tillman, and they have David Njoku, who I think
is a great start this week.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
All right, doctor Throto again, whether you're on the phones
at seven one three two one two five seven, Andy,
if you have any questions for the good Doc, you'll
take him in the next segment. Your gut feeling on
Aaron Rodgers going back to where he played last year,
and the thought of the Steelers quarterback at your age
forty one.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Yeah, I mean this is desperate times called for desperate measures,
and bringing in Rogers just feels like.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
A desperate move.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
But but it couldn't bring them to the playoffs again,
I mean, Mike and they might even win a game,
but look, he's not going to throw for three hundred yards.
Jalen Warren is fine. He's a very good blocking running
back and he can catch out of the backfield. I
think he'll get about twelve fantasy points. A lot of
people have invested into DK Metcalf. I don't think I have.
DK's not DeVante Adams. He runs different routes than DeVante Adams.
(07:12):
I think Aaron Rodgers just a guy that I really Look,
you could root for the Steelers. They'll play great defense.
This is not a good fantasy game. I mean, justin
Field should do well. But who do they have to
throw to outside of Garrett Wilson, Nobody? Maybe Breis Hall
gets a few receptions. This is just a game to
stay away from.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Why are so many people high on Drake May and
the Patriots especially? Is it because of their home schedules
because the Raiders are coming in? But Drake was getting
a lot of I would say mid level quarterbacks elections
in drafts this year.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
I love Drake May this year.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Look, he had nobody to throw the ball to last year.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
So what do they do. They bring in Stefan Dicks. Now,
what do they do?
Speaker 4 (07:52):
They draft Trayvon Henderson, who they think is going to
get eighty plus receptions. Oh, by the way, they bring
in Kyle Williams, who was a really good speed receiver
from Washington State.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Now you're giving Drake May some options.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
He was great in college when he had Josh Downs
and Devon sees Walker to throw to. He just had
nobody to throw to last year. Now you got a
real coach with Mike Rabel I think this team is
onto something now the Raiders. It's gonna be an interesting game.
I really like Ashton Genty. I think he scores a
touchdown this week. But if the Patriots want to compete,
this is a game they have to win. Drake May
(08:25):
is also very mobile.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Look for him.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
I would say about two hundred and forty passing yards,
maybe one passing touchdown, maybe another forty yards.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Rushing Texans this week in Los Angeles. Matthew Stafford. We've
been told the back is okay. He's practiced for the
last couple of weeks. Texans offensive line is still a
huge question mark. We've got probably not probably there will
be no Christian Kirk this week, but generally speaking, I
think this is gonna be a low scoring game. Does
(08:53):
that mean I want to stay away for some folks
in this game? Or am I still going to pick
up my normal Texans and my normal Rams when they
meet Sunday in Los Angeles?
Speaker 4 (09:00):
No Vegas agrees with you, MT. We're talking about like
forty three and a half points. Here's the issue. The
Rams strength on defense is their pass rush. And what's
the Texans issue? You know, protecting c J. Stroud So
if they can get him anytime, then Nico Collins is
in play. But I think he's gonna be under siege
all game long. I mean, this is what the Rams
(09:20):
do well. They don't have a great linebacking cores, they
don't have a great secondary, but they get to the passer.
On the other end, it's going to be about the
Kira and Williams show. Can the Texans stop Kiraen Williams?
Speaker 3 (09:31):
I think they can.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
I think they can even hold pokinakuhan check. But let's
not forget Devonte Adams as a Ram now. So I
think that the Texans this is just a bad first
matchup for them because the Rams do what the Texans do,
they just might do it a little bit better. It's
really about effort and his health.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
All right, for you, go to our first break time
now for these sports RV Rossville Realite Progatory. One question
for Rodo per week. What I guy, I'm giving you
one question.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Your segment because here, Rodo, we're.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Playing each other this week and we okay, well, you
know it is difficult. What is the best way to
continue the excellence after back to back to back championship? Okay,
maybe I shouldn't.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Ask him that.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
How we've Okay, I tell me what you think about this,
doctor Rhodo. I was in three drafts picking forth and third,
and every time it came down to Jamiir Gibbs and
Saquon Barkley, And every time I chose Saquon Barkley. How
dumb am I?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
One to ten, seven and a half?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Okay, are you not worried about You're not worried about
David Montgomery?
Speaker 4 (10:36):
No, okay, you know what we saw at the end
of last year that gives basically fed families. That guy
brought you to Fantasy championship.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
Montgy, God bless you.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yeah, Montgomery's gonna be hurt.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
Yeah, last night, look at what Jalen Hurts did.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
That's true, And that was Ross's obligatory question per week.
We'll do that and again next Friday was seven and
a half out of ten. But I'm still back to back
to back champ. He's so cocky too, rode O.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Wow, seriously, I got lucky.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
I got lucky, all right, four six, Your phone calls
seven to one, three.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
And they never touched the ball. It gets frustrating. So
Daniel Jones will find Michael Pittman. He will find Josh Downs.
I love Josh Downs. This week he will find Tyler Warren.
Their great new rookie tight end. Anthony Richardson was completing
nine passes a game. I think this is actually good
for the Colts. And if you play in DFS, I
think Daniel Jones you can get him on the cheap.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
You really can.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
So, I mean, I think he's in a better spot
than people are anticipating. I like that game to explode
a little bit in the dome tu a chan Waddle.
I think that game could have fifty points in it.
On the other side, look Cincinnati and Cleveland. Cleveland always
plays Cincinnati tough because they have a really good pass rush,
and they don't give Joe Borrow enough time.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Cincinnati's got a terrible defense. We know this.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
Would it shock you if Joe Flacco threw for two
hundred and sixty yards this week, It wouldn't shock me
at all. I think he can throw for two s
two touchdowns. They still have Jerry Judy, they have Cedric Tillman,
and they have David Njoku, who I think is a
great start this week.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
All right, doctor Row again, whether you're on the phones
at seven, one, three, two, two, five, seven, any if
you have any questions for the good Doc, you'll take
him in the next segment. Your gut feeling on Aaron
Rodgers going back to where he played last year, and
the thought of the Steelers quarterback at your age forty one.
Speaker 4 (12:24):

(12:45):
people have invested into DK Metcalf. I don't think I have.
DK's not DeVante Adams. He runs different routes than DeVante Adams.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I think Aaron.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Rodgers just a guy that I really look. You could
root for the Steelers. They'll play great defense. This is
not a good fantasy game.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
I mean, justin field should.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
Do well, but who do they have to throw to
outside of Garrett Wilson. Nobody maybe breist Hall gets a
few receptions. This is just a game to stay away from.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Why are so many people high on Drake May and
the Patriots especially? Is it because of their home schedules
because the Raiders are coming in, But Drake was getting
a lot of I would say mid level quarterbacks elections

They don't have a great secondary, but they get to

about the Kira and Williams show. Can the Texans stop
Kiraen Williams.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
I think they can.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
I think they could even hold Pukua Coulan check. But
