Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, it's not Thursday, it's Tuesday. But Dan ain't
gonna take my phone call on Thursday. He Tawk's fantasy
football with us every week. Our guy, Dan Klaskins fantastics
insider football on Sirius XM Fantasy and a guy who's
always there for your fantasy football related questions on x
at Dan Klaskins. Dan, how are we doing? Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Doing great mode? Getting fired up? We got probably got
four football games where we can get to the weekend. Man,
So happy Thanksgiving to you, endured that pres.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
We've got four football games between Thursday and Friday. And
here's what I want to give thanks for. No buys
can't beat.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
It, Amen, a mat We still got four more next week,
but none next week.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
That's right, that's right, all right, Speaking of reasons to
give thanks, give me some guys who if you own
one of them, you should be giving thanks for.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah, we're gonna look at some players delivering in recent weeks.
These are the main dishes at the table. Right, we
focused only on guys in these first board games. And
Caleb Williams has to be the quarterback up there. QB
three over last five weeks seven to one TV interceptions
in the ratio eclipsing twenty three plus fantasy points three times.
His rushing floor helps He's picked up twenty one or
(01:16):
more yards on the ground. Each of these contests have
running back. No running back has compiled more fantasy points
than Shremier Gibbs over the last five weeks. He's only
played four games in that span, and still over five
week period leads in fantasy points. I tell you something.
He's scored six times the mass five hundred and ten
yards of total offense, twenty two catches in sweet day
George Pickens of the Cowboys. He's making a case for
(01:38):
a big payday. That's offseason. He's been a fantasy steal
this year at receiver. Over his last four games, he's
ever fourteen point two fantasy points. Only Jackson Smith and
Jakeman Drake London have had more picks, have scored and
hit one hundred and forty plus yards, and back to
back weeks he's been target least nine times in four
straight eight of his eleven contests this season. He's a
league wide receiver. Won and Travis Kelcey. I know the
(02:00):
future Hall of Famer may not be the fantasy study
once was but top five numbers over the last month,
including two of his best games in the season during
that span, and his Everson A targets just under six
catches and seventy five yards per outing. That is helping.
A lot of his managers are out.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
All right, Let's talk about some injuries, starting with the
obvious right here in Cincinnati.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah, Burrow and Higgins, the key bangle injuries. Obviously, Joe's
gonna play Bengal would be without T Higgins and concussion
proto call. I'm expecting big things for Jamar Chase. I mean,
use Burrow obviously if you had him, but it comes
with risk. The other injuries that we're watching for Thanksgiving,
specifically rash she Rice. You only with the hamstring issue.
(02:42):
I'm not that worried death, and we'll keep our eyes
on it. I am also expecting Josh Sjacobs, so the
Packers running back to be back on Thanksgiving. He sat
out last week. I think it was purposeful in the
short week, a huge game there in the NFC North
between Green Bay and Detroit. Moving on towards the weekend,
we'll follow these situations. Askton Genty suffered a minor or
some sort of ankle issue at the end of last
(03:03):
week's game. Didn't come back again. We'll had to watch
him practice this week. I'm going to see if the
Bucks get back Bucky Irving from the shoulder issue. Baker
Mayfield dealing with his own shoulder injury as well. He
could miss this week. Of Marion Hampton, the Chargers today
activated his twenty one day window. It doesn't really bode
well for Week thirteen, but perhaps for the fantasy playoffs
(03:24):
for the Chargers. Running Back Tray Benson's in a similar
situation dealing with the knee injury in Arizona and al Kamara.
You can add mto the injury list of running back
suffer to MCL strained last week. He's going to miss
a couple weeks. Probably there for the same Tide receiver
Drake London week to week with his knee injury. I
do expect it and hope Marvin Harrison Junior gets back
this week from the appendicitis a couple of weeks ago.
(03:44):
Brian Thomas Junior missed again last week. It's been a
lost season. He's dealing with an ankle issue. Can't be
trusted in the lineup even if he returned to a
couple quarterbacks to watch Jackson Dark. I'm expecting him to
return after two weeks of a concussion protocol. And Aaron
Rodgers didn't play last week, but his trend towards playing
here this week and week their team at that non
throwing hand injury he's dealing with.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Dan Klaskins is with this Typically we do studs, duds,
and sleepers. Let's make this feast or famine. Since we're
focusing only on the games on Thanksgiving and on Black Friday,
give me some guys that you know might be worth
sitting down and having a feast with, and maybe some
players who could I don't know, leave fantasy owners hungry.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Yeah, the feast, the pile on the second mode. These
are the guys that they're giving out the full plates.
And Jalen Hurts love him here on Friday Black Friday game.
Improved as the Bears are this season, they're still not
great for our fantasy quarterbacks. There's only three teams have
allowed more fantasy points to the position in recent matchups.
So I do like him. I like Derrick Henry as well.
(04:50):
Versus the Bengals. Fifteen rbs have hit double digit PPR
points vers the Bengals through eleven games. That's pretty amazing
in itself, including five with twenty three Fantasy points. He's
delivered back to back twenty twenty fantasy games there the
last two weeks. I expect him to make it three
straight on Thursday night. And Jamar Chase definitely, if I'm
in a Turkey Day draft, my number one overall. Picky.
(05:11):
He's coming a week off the sidelines with suspension. He's
getting borrowed back. But I mean, we all know the numbers.
In the last two games. There's Baltimore twenty one balls
born in fifty seventy yards, five scores with Higgins out.
I look at the Tario baring to continue on the
fan in side Jordan love Is Detroit six starts, first alliance.
The Packers quarterback has never hit two hundred and thirty
five yards. He's failed to throw for multiple scores in
four of those six. I expect him to fail to
(05:33):
do both again this week. DeAndre Swift didn't have a
big game last week. Time an Unguy's stealing into that carry.
Philly's not having a great year, but only five running
backs at rush for a touchdown against him. Not a
single ones at the Century, Mark DeAndre Swift outside my
top thirty this week, and Moe Jamison Williams. He's been
held without a catch now two of his last five games,
including last week. He's facing a Packers d over the
(05:55):
last three contests that he's yet to break eighty yards
four score against temper x case he's once again a
Boomer bust wide receiver three flex play.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
On Thursday, Dan Klaskins is with US Fantastics Insider Football
on Sirius Xam Fantasy. We are all on Thanksgiving week
so grateful for the freedoms that we all enjoy, which
means we're grateful for the veterans that allow us to
