Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Here we go. It's time forthe fantasy football guys. Like a hot
night in Tijuana. They're the DonkeyShow of fantasy football. Here they are
Lyle con Keel and Kevin Moore,the fantasy football guys. That's right,

(00:23):
we are the fantasy football guys.Robbie, Jay Bitt, and Lyle.
You screwed me up. I hada whole thing I was gonna do.
You'll you'll never get your intro,bud. Sorry. Robbie was talking earlier
about, Hey, what am Igonna do for this intro thing? So
I figured I'd throw a curve tosee if he could. If he could

(00:46):
hand, you are scrut So whatdid you have for so you're gonna just
use it next week? Well,I was gonna say that if you get
the chance, I was gonna say. I made the playoffs in the scott
Fishbowl Tournament League. You. Yeah, I have to get to thirteen wins
and each week you get a winif you win, and then win if

(01:07):
you are above the average score ofthe league. So I made it to
thirteen wins after this past week,so I am in the playoffs. Nice.
Yeah, So I started out thatscott Fish Bowl League four. Oh,
I'm like, I'm cruising. I'mrolling. Then I proceeded to lose
several weeks in a row. JustinJefferson went out. That took thirty points

(01:29):
a week off my tally. Soyeah, now I'm nine and nine,
so I need to win out toguarantee a playoffs. I'd like to let
you know I just made the playoffs. I also lost Justin Jefferson. So
maybe if you drafted better, perhapsif I drafted Chris It's a skill issue.
It is apparently so my running backsalso went out with angry But anyway,

(01:49):
I'm not going to make excuses.That's fantasy football, except you just
did. I actually didn't. Well, my receiver went out and my running
backs are out. Yeah, thosewere excuses that you just made. And
you said he I also lost.There's all. There is a fine line,
a fine line between excuses and reasons. I'm dancing on the reasons side.

(02:12):
You sound like a Dallas cowboy rightnow. Damn, bro, that's
a little hurt. But you knowwhat, Real friends are honest with each
other. I'm being honest with you, So what are we doing? Then?
I'm being honest with you? Yousound like a Dallas cowboy fan right
now. Okay, well, tryingto say it sounds like it was a

(02:34):
good loss, so I can tellthat we're we're back on track here de
fantasy football. Oh, by theway, for those of you who were
unable to get the show on Appleand Google podcasts last week, no idea
what happened. We do what wealways do, uh and loaded at the
spreaker, which is supposed to sendit out to all the places where we

(02:55):
where we wanted to go, anduh it didn't. You know what I
bet happened. Well, I justbasically re up, didn't re upload the
show. I edited the the interfaceand then resaved, and I see it
went up. They probably over anApple Podcasts. They listened to it,
and it said, you know what, Lyle is just a little overmodulated.
We probably shouldn't put this one outthis week. That's fine, was omdulated.

(03:16):
Why don't you guys tell me thisstuff? I don't know. I
uh, anyway, listen. Ihope that nobody heard it because it was
probably our best show of the year. And that's the way the cookie crumbles.
Yeah. Probably also other horrible analogieshere, right, So the past

(03:43):
is the past. We uh,we kick it up a little bit now,
so we have we have Carson Wentzback in the NFL. Not real
sure, Well, I got totell you, if you're Brett Rippin,
right, you go from starting quarterbackfor the Los Angeles Rams to on the
street, maybe back on the practicesquad. Who's to say? But yeah,

(04:03):
Carson Wentz. Listen. I don'thold any ill will towards Carson me.
I hope. I love a goodredemption story. Listen. I don't
like a lot of the things thatthe guy did, but I will never
not love him for that twenty seventeenseason and some of the other stuff that

(04:25):
he did afterwards, he was neveras good. But but you know,
so you know, I hope thatthat he can remain in the league in
some capacity. Sure, next year, he basically put the team on his
back and dragged him to the playoffs. The only thing that bothers me is

(04:46):
that he didn't go to the Giants, because that would have been hilarious.
That would have been pert. Hedid go to the Commanders, though,
which was close right right, No, That's what I'm saying. He needs
to complete his NFC's tour. Well, I thought for sure that when Danny
Jones went down, after Tyrod wentdown, that maybe they they'd sign him.
But no, I guess they're tooThey're they're happy with de Vito and

(05:10):
Matt Barkley there and they've signed.So we're a tanking and and they should
move away from Danny Dimes. Maybethey will, maybe they won't. They
can't because that it's fully guaranteed.Has it been ever moved on from a
quarterback one year after giving him aridiculously big carson that's funny, Yeah it

(05:36):
did. When it's time to go, it's time to go, yeah,
man. So I mean that's theone thing that separates the Philadelphia Eagles from
a lot of organizations around the NFL. And I know we're Eagles fans and
blah blah blah, here we go. But I'm just gonna tell you guys
this. They are not afraid tomove on from winning coaches, quarterbacks,

(05:58):
whatever. They moved on from AndyRead he's a Hall of Fame coach,
obviously won a bunch of you know, a couple of Super Bowls with Kansas
City, Right, he's pretty good. They moved on from Doug Peterson,
who won a Super Bowl. Theymoved on from Carson Wentz, they moved
on from Nick Foles, who wonthem a super Bowl. They are willing
to reset when they know it's notworking, and the rest of the league

(06:24):
is terrified of changing anything after theLook, I mean, the Ravens paid
Joe Flacco a ton of He wasthe highest paid quarterback ever in the history
of the NFL at one point becausehe won a Super Bowl. He was
never that good. Listen, I'mnot taking anything away from Joe Flaxham.
He won a Super Bowl. Hewas awesome. Good for them, they

(06:46):
got a ring. But you knowat some point you got to look at
that guy and go, look,okay, yeah, I know we won
the big thing, but I'm notgiving you one hundred million dollars. Well
do you remember the conversations ever,is Joe Flacco an elite quarterback? Right?
It turns out the answer was no, No, he's not. He
was a really good quarterback and hewas good enough to win a Super Bowl.

(07:10):
So he definitely did that. AndI don't want to take that away
for a minute at all. Iwould say he was good enough to not
lose a Super Bowl. I don'tI don't care, right, he was
he was really good in that SuperBowl. He was, he was,
He was good the year before hehad he had a window. Yeah,
you know, I'm not taking anything away from Joe Flackow. It's not
a knock at him. But whatI'm saying is he didn't deserve that contract,

(07:33):
right right, and Dimes certainly didn'tdeserve his, but he No.
Here's the thing with that though.If you get a rookie, so you
say you take one that you're inone of the first three or four positions
you get, you know, youget one of the hot rookie quarterbacks that
come up. You're paying that rookiea rookie contract. So it doesn't only
matter if you're paying Dimes off fornot playing football, right, it doesn't

(07:57):
matter because your your quarterback room.You you put a certain amount of money
in that room. So if you'repaying a rookie a rookie salary and you're
paying a veteran to back up oreven if he's not on your team big
quarterback money, it's still the sameamount of money. It's just dispersed in
a way that you would prefer notto have it dispersed. It's all the
same and then maybe you can movethat person, which is what the Eagles

(08:20):
did. I don't think they can. The Giants can move Dimes the way
the Eagles move Carson, but maybeyou could move that person and off load
some of the you know, theback end of that contract. Well,
whether money or draft capital, oneof the two, one of the two.

(08:41):
Well, Danny Dimes never an MVPcandidate like Wentz was, So no,
I don't see a first round draftpick coming out of that. If
a bunch of stuff for Wentz,they did, they did, and we
were happy to get whatever. I'mglad he's back in the league. I
hope he does well. Good forhim. Always love I will always love

(09:05):
him for that season and and andthe subsequent like putting the team on his
back the next few years. Yeah, yeah, if he doesn't get hurt
in that Rams game. Who knows, man, he was never the same
after that, well he will alsowasn't the same after the the UH I
think it was it was it clowneyin the Seattle game where he got he

(09:26):
got his head planted into the turf. That was when things really started to
go weird. So who knows,man, who knows? I wish him
the best anyway, go ahead.So my fantasy teams that are dying and
had to pick him up are alsohoping for the best. Oh yeah,
y'all, y'all should have got onthat jazz job train. Oh that's I'm

(09:48):
on the train. That's that's whereI'm starting. Hey, hey, listen.
In the G League, I gotmy homes right, but he's on
by this week, so I hadto do it. I got Dobbs,
and you know what, Dobbs outscored Mahomes last week. I'm playing Josh
Dobbs this week, me too.You want to make you want to be

(10:09):
even happier? Justin Jefferson's officially inthe window. Let me tell you something
practical. Thanks Jepping about this whenwhen Dobbs was still playing with Arizona and
listen, he didn't have a greatgame. This was at the very beginning
of the game. But I justwrote it. I was like, dude,
I really like Dobbs. That dude'sa baller, and he is.

(10:33):
He doesn't care that dude's an eliteathlete. People make fun of him and
stuff. He's an elite athlete.Yeah, five teams in one year,
I mean, clearly a journeyman,you know, but he's he's the new
Beard. But we're gonna call himthe bald. I'm doing it now.
So what what name do you havefor him? Rob uh So he was

(10:56):
an intern at NASA. So NASAcame out said he is the pastra Orna.
I don't know how I feel aboutthat. I'm sure, I'm sure
if you ask Josh whether he prefersthe bald or past or not, it's
not going to be the bald.I'm gonna go with the bald. They

(11:20):
just caught him the bald, hthe bald. Dob magic Baby, the
Bald. I saw some Minnesota fanswere shaving their eyebrows off in solidarity.
Love him for the dobs Man.Dude, he balled all the way out.
He didn't even know the playbook.They were drawn up plays like a
basketball team for him. Yeah.Kevin O'Connell was literally talking into his ear

(11:46):
until the might cut off every singleplay, even if the play was happening.
Listen, guys, the Vikings havean easy schedule. They are number
seven right now, they are inthe playoffs. Yeah right, they could
do this, so they, likeRobbie said, you know, basically what
they did with him was one stepabove yanking somebody out of the stands to

(12:11):
throw him on the field. Kindof you saw that, Like the offensive
line was around like so he listeningto his cadence getting snaps, Yeah,
practicing like the first time to centerhad felt Josh Dobb's hands under his ass
was on the sideline, and theoffensive line is standing around here in his
cadence for the first time ever,and he comes out and pulls off a

(12:31):
dub. Now, to be fair, to be fat Falcons, they weren't
playing a great team. They weren't. But I don't care. Every team
in the NFL is capable of winning. I don't care that that's a feat
man. That guy is a Listen. He might never amount to anything in

(12:52):
the NFL, but I will alwayslove his gutsy performances. This year,
sure will he plade his ass offfor Arizona. He beat the goddamn Cowboys.
Arizona is one win against Dallas,which just makes me gleeful. They

(13:13):
had no business even being in thatgame, but they won. Yeah,
yeah, listen, I love thatkind of stuff. And I'm a fan
of Josh Dobbs pretty much forever andunless he bet the Eagle somehow, then
I'll hate him in the playoffs.That would suck. So we just mentioned

(13:35):
the Falcons. I was reminded ofsomething that I saw about the Falcons.
There's a thread on Twitter, sorryX about how awful Arthur Smith is and
how he just he just loves Theylove drafting players, skilled players with the
first round pick and then not givingthem the ball. Jon hasn't done anything.

(13:58):
Uh And someone say said, ArthurSmith is a type of dude to
suck dick for bus money and walkhome. Okay, I saw, yeah,
I tweeted it. I didn't tweetit, but I texted it to
you guys. Oh, yeah,that is where I saw it. Yeah,

(14:20):
I saw it. I saw iton an X post and screen captain
and sent it. But yes,it so funny. Actually I think they
said give a BJ because it's alittle less offensive. But yes, give
a BJ for bus fair and thenwalk home. But it's all true,
brilliant. Yeah, I love itall right, guys. So let's jump
into some news here. So there'slots of injury updates and such. Justin

(14:43):
Jefferson with his hammy, I waslimited in practice today, but he was
at practice limited, but at practice. His twenty one day practice window was
open. Everybody who has shares ofJustin Jefferson and Josh Dobbs for that matter,
very excited at the prospect of himbeing able to play this weekend.

(15:05):
The bad news for the Likes ist J Hockinson has ribs and was listed
as limited today. See one guycoming up limited good news, one guy
going down limited bad news. IfI had to choose, thought, yeah,
yeah. kJ Osborne with a concussiondidn't participate, so he got three

(15:26):
levels of participation there for the forthe Vikings, how Jordan Madison doing poorly
this season? Thank you for asking. David Montgomery did practice fully today with
his ribs. That's going to beinteresting to see how that backfield goes because
Jamior Gibbs has done well. DonovanPeople's jones and his ribs limited on Wednesday.

(15:48):
Te Higgins has that hammy issue thathe's been struggling with. Limited practice
today. Jamar Chase with his backdidn't practice officially today. See Kendra Miller
not a practice, Rob Wood's notat practice, Nico Collins not at practice
for the Texans, bad news forUS Birds fans. Na Kobe Dean and
his foot again with a foot expectedto be placed on IR, is the

(16:11):
same foot. I don't know ifI don't know if it is or not.
He's got a lose Frank's brain whichtends to suck actually and be a
long recovery. So at least amonth for him if he's on IR.
Yeah, how about that. UhSo Justin Fields still has that thumb michel
on a sewing hand, So itlooks like it's going to be Tyson Bagent

(16:33):
to be starting in week ten oras we call him, secret Baije Cole
comet owner. I approve, Ido. I did enjoy the two touchdowns
from the Comet man. Hey,Kylin Murray's back up expected to start on
Sunday. That's exciting. It wasabout that. See how he's doing.
Uh, hopefully he's he's back tobe in the the guy he was before

(16:55):
he was hurt, which will willwill raise the tide for all boats.
And hoefully we can get some RondelleMoore action. We can get, you
know, maybe a little more offenseout of that Cardinals team. We'll see
Khalil Herbert with his ankle listed asquestionable for Thursday. Be interesting to see
what they do with Herbert and Roshanand Yonday Foreman, who was a healthy

(17:18):
scratch when both of the first twoguys we were up. So we'll see
how that works. Out Fields isn'tactually out yet for Thursday. He's listed
as doubtful, and it's rare thatsomebody doubtful actually plays the next day.
Maybe if it was Sunday, he'dbe going. But Thursday, let's see
Christian Watson practice today. Damian Piercedidn't practice. He's got that ankle issue,

(17:41):
as we know. Let's see ZachWilson will remain the starter for the
Jets. Sorry Jets fans, butyeah, we also know that Cam Akers
placed on IR James Connor coming backfrom IR for the Cardinals. So hey,
that Cardinals offense might never mind,probably won't. Yeah, I think

(18:03):
we know what's gonna happen. Yeah, we uh, because it's not just
about the skill spots, boys,it's about the other spots as well.
All right, So we're talking aboutthe Bears in their issues. Let's jump
right into the games, you guys, you guys, good, ready,
good? All right? So yougot Chiefs, Rams, Dolphins and Eagles
on by this week? Uh threeout of those four teams chalk full of

(18:25):
fantasy value players and the Rams haveCooper Cup and you know Puka. So
this is a tough week with alot of good players out. So uh,
for somehow, the infinite wisdom ofRoger Goodell in the NFL and the
schedule makers, somebody decided that theThursday night game would be great if it
was Carolina and in Chicago. Now, I know it's it's almost impossible to

(18:47):
flex out of Thursday night game,but man, if you're gonna this would
be one to do that. Soyou got the one one win to have.
The Panthers won one. Yet Ithink they did win one. Okay,
they gotta win and Chicago has whattwo? Three? Two? Yeah,
I mean yeah, so it's likely. But here's what's funny, is

(19:08):
Chicago that's Carolina's pick. Yeah,they do, so, like should they
beat them? I you know,I think they're going to try their best,
but I don't know that it's goingto matter really will they? Yeah,
because an NFL team wouldn't. Theywould definitely not tank. No players
wouldn't. Now, you want totry to win so that you know the

(19:30):
Panthers have the worst record, soyou know, but the Panthers whether who
knows? So, oh, youknow what's what's a win win for the
Bears. Either way, it's good. So you lose, your pick is
better. You win, their pickis better, all right. So it's
a great matchup for the running backson Carolina. But Miles Sanders has basically

(19:53):
been out carried by Chew Bahabard thirtyone to eight in the last two That's
right, thirty one care for you, but eight carries for Miles and neither
of them mattered. That's true.Yeah, you know, the great news
is it's a good matchup for Hubbard, and there's a bad news is Chebe
Hubbard eighty six yards and zero touchdownsin those last few games where he out

(20:17):
carried Miles Sanders thirty one to eight. So obviously you can't play either of
these guys. But Chicago has allowedthe sixth most points to running backs this
year. Something's gotta give. Whatit's not going to be is my fantasy
team lineup. Well, it's notgonna be as my attention span because I'm
gonna watch something else. Yeah,it's gonna be rough. DJ Shark is

(20:37):
doubtful and all, but you gottastill play Adam thiel And, though double
digit fantasy points and six out ofthe of the eight games he's played in
this season target Monster, It's asif Bryce Young doesn't think there's another receiver
on the field. So yeah,I'm gonna start Adam Thieling from this side,
and that's about it. From theChicago side. I'd like to be

(20:59):
able to play some in this backfield, but if Khalil Herbert's back, I
don't know if he's going to Ifhe's one healthy and he's going to be
the same guy he was before injury, is Roshan. He hasn't been a
factor lately. It's been Deonta Foreman. What's Foreman's role going to be if
Herbert's back? You know, ifHerbert's back and he's up and everybody's like,

(21:21):
no, no pitch count on him, no snap count on him,
I'm going to play him because Ihave him in the league. I don't
know what to do with Foreman,so I will probably try to fade him
if I can, but it's goingto be difficult because he has been doing
well. So maybe a flex ifI need, if I if it's between

(21:41):
him and you know, like maybeAntonio Gibson or something. I play foreman,
en roll the dice. Can't sitDj Moore even if it's a Bagentdue's
just a madman, dude. DarneldMooney put up eighty two yards on five
catches against New Orleans. Possible flexthere, but hard to trust Darnell Mooney
give his uh, given his historywith catching passes and putting up points.

(22:03):
But Carolinas sucks versus a pass.So yes to Dj Moore, Darnell Mooney.
If you have a desperation flex,you need at play. Cole kmet
six out of eight. He hadsix catches, eight target, sixty five
yards and two touchdowns. Man,he's been playing out of his mind.
Okay, fair enough. I gota barn burner for you guys. Colts

(22:27):
Pats, h Cardner, Minshew.He's a quarterback. Still, he's fun
to watch. You're not gonna playhim, obviously. Yeah. Yeah,
this is a Germany game. Itis, Yeah, Frankfurt. Lucky for
them. One week he get DolphinsChiefs, the next week he get Colts.

(22:48):
Patriots. Jonathan Taylor has scored touchdownsin two of the last three games.
He's getting a lot of carries.Got to play him. Obviously the
receivers here. I think Pittman isa Mule's start in a PPR, not
at your wide receiver one, butin a flex for sure. Two weeks
in a row he's got eight catches. You know, he scored two touchdowns

(23:11):
the previous two weeks. He didn'tscore the last week. But still he's
in a PPR. He's wide receiverfourteen thirteen sixteen. He belongs in a
slot. I would love to playJosh downs. I think he's really really
good. He's quable. He's questionableright now, but the previous week.

(23:36):
Again, this is all if heplays and stuff, But the previous week
he had die targets. He hadseven catches, right, he's okay.
But even at a PPR that weekhe was wide receiver thirty. He's only
been top ten once. Yeah,I've seen some people start buying Alec Pears
shares. I'm like, whoa holdon there, that's a little I really
look, it's Taylor, It's Pittmanand them out right like this team.

(24:00):
Sure, from the Patriots side,we're not going to talk about Mac Jones.
I don't think, are we Ihope not. You have a gunman
or something I mean, you know, that's the only reason why you would
remandre though, Like I was encourageddude last week against in a PPR Remondre

(24:21):
Stevenson. Guess where he finished lastweek amongst running backs four? Number two?
He was number two last week.Well usually he's number two every week.
Oh eighty seven on the ground onjust nine carries. But he did
have a touchdown. He also wonfour passes for another forty two twenty two

(24:42):
point nine points and a peeper that'snot nothing. Yeah, he had that.
I think it was like a sixtyfive yard screen touchdown, which is
where most of the came from.Yeah, sixty four yards but yes,
and it was a run. Butyes, he is play a bowl in

(25:03):
a flex. Yeah, I wouldbe remiss if I don't mention again.
Questionable to Mario Douglas though I can'tnot three touchdowns or sorry, three weeks
in a row. This dude hashad six, seven and seven targets.
Right. I'm not saying that it'sthe Patriots, right, I'm not saying

(25:27):
that these guys are good. They'renot. He's not. But given bye
week giving stuff, this guy belongson your roster. He does not necessary
belong in your lineup. But I'mtelling you right now, if I had
to pick a wide receiver from NewEngland, it would be him. I

(25:52):
heard that Parker is looking good inpractice. What's that? So? I
heard that Vonte Parker is looking goodin practice. Listen, I'm not going
he's not, though, I justhave to mention him. Okay, okay,
Well, you know with Kendrick Bourne, now apparently it's you know,
he's the guy getting the targets,but he is Jones targeting. No,
he's He's horrible, right, MacJones is horrible. But I think this

(26:18):
guy belongs on a roster. Ithink he's in the category that could go
on a like a later season run, right because they're using him. Sure.
I mean, he's got over fiftyyards in two of the last three
weeks against tough teams. So pickhim up, put him on your bench,

(26:40):
don't play him. Hunter Henry scoreda touchdown. Awesome. I wish
you would do that more. Hewas he was he was tight end one
and two the first two weeks ofthe year. Since then, he's been
way down. Last week he scoredon the touchdown. Good for him.
I don't know, he's a guy, just a guy, all right.

(27:03):
Now we have the Saints going upto Minnesota to play the past Orna.
For the Saints, Derek Carr hasactually been like suspiciously consistent. Not great,
but he's been between sixteen and eighteenpoints the past four or five weeks
I think, which you know,again, isn't phenomenal. He's not putting

(27:26):
up mahomes like numbers. But youknow, hey, if you want consistently
average QB numbers, if you're ina two quarterback league or a super flex,
we'll stop selling it. Robbie,I'm conveyed. You know, Hey,
it's it's not bad. He's finishingaround QB ten every week the past
five weeks, so that's playable,startable, definitely playable. Alva Kamara is

(27:52):
a monster. His usage on theground and in the past makes him a
must start. Hey, you know, it's funny because he's doing kind of
quietly. It was like nobody's talkingabout how awesome he is, but nobody
cares about the same. I thinkthat's exactly the reason is who cares about
the NFC South in general? Sairenough. So yeah, but he he
didn't have a great game last weekon the ground, nine carries twenty five

(28:17):
yards, no touchdown, but he'sstill caught for balls for forty four yards,
so you know it kept him relevant, but he wasn't, you know,
the same as the previous four weekswhere he had twenty two, nineteen,
seventeen, thirty and twenty seven,so you know, he has one
down game, but his average isstill like twenty five points a game,
so definitely gonna start that guy.The receivers are kind of strange. Chris

(28:44):
Olave is the most consistent of thereceivers, but again it's not fantastic.
He's averaging like thirteen points a game, which is right in the lower middle
part of wide receiver two numbers canat the the yearly stats there, so
you know he's certainly playable, buthe hasn't had like a massive breakout game

(29:07):
yet and I don't really seeing it. I don't see that happening with Derek
Carr because he's not really throwing thatmany touchdown passes. Michael Thomas is in
a similar situation, but he's aboutfour points a week lower down, so
maybe throw him in a flex,but I really don't expect much from him.
Rashid Shaheed is severely boom or busts. He's gonna get you three points

(29:30):
or he's gonna get you twenty threepoints. But there's just no way to
know when that's gonna happen, soit happens less often than you would want.
Yeah, I mean, he's he'sscored three touchdowns this year, and
those are the three games where he'sbeen useful. So you know it might
happen. It might not happen.If you want to roll the dice,
if you need to phil Philip By, you can cross your fingers. But

(29:53):
more than likely he's gonna end upwith, you know, two catches for
twenty two yards, and that's gonnabe it. Now, fellas we've been
meming, I think you have tostart Taysom Hill. Yeah, I agree,
I have to agree. I agree. I started him in a flex
last week. Yeah, I meanfour consecutive weeks of amazing tight end play

(30:22):
because you can play him in atight end even though he's he's a quarterback.
He in Week seven. He playsquarterback occasionally, but he's primarily a
tight end. Yeah. He takesmore snaps at tight end than any other
or as a pass catcher than anyof the position. But Week seven,
he caught a touchdown or sorry,ran a touchdown. In stats are backwards

(30:45):
here, five carries for eighteen withthe touchdown. Week after that, nine
carries sixty three yards, two touchdowns. He also threw a touchdown that game.
Last week he caught four and atouchdown. Another eleven carriers for fifty
two yards. He's just used allover the place, and you know,
the first five weeks of the season, he wasn't really making it happen.

(31:07):
The past four weeks he's in onlike half the half of the plays and
he's getting the ball. And consequentlythe Saints have been winning. They have,
so maybe they figured something out.Now. Unfortunately, this means that
really it does kind of hinder everybodyelse on the team because he's just kind
of a magnet for the football.You know, if he throws a touchdown,

(31:29):
I mean Derek Derek Carr doesn't getto throw it, so you know,
he's not quite as valuable if he'scatching a touchdown. That means Olave
Shaheed Kamara aren't catching the touchdown.Same for running. When Jamal Williams came
to this team, there's a lotof hype because we saw what he did
in Detroit last year. He hadlike twenty two to twenty touchdowns and most
of them were short yardage, youknow from the one. But Taysom Hill's

(31:52):
getting all those carries, so JamalWilliams doesn't have that value. I actually
dropped that dude today to make roomfor It's unfortunate becau. He's a very
likable guy, but he's just notgetting it done because Taysoum's just better at
it. Yeah, so you gottastar Taysom Hill. I don't think there's
any reason to start Juwan Johnson.He caught a touchdown last week, but

(32:14):
he's he scored more points last weekthan the previous eight weeks combined. I
think he kind of leave him wherehe is. Taysom Hill is the tight
end to start on that team goingto the Vikings. Now. We talked
about Josh Dobbs earlier. There's alot of hype around him, and I
think he's a great quarterback. Hedid very well last week, only playing
like seventy percent of a game.But you look at the team around him,

(32:39):
and I want to keep the hypegoing. But if Justin Jefferson doesn't
play and kJ Osborne doesn't play,and Brandon Powell, who no one has
ever heard of until this past weekwhen he caught that game winner, he's
banged up. It's not like hedoes much anyway. If Hockinson doesn't play,

(33:00):
who is catching passes from him?I mean, he didn't know their
names last week, so it doesn'treally matter to him. But yeah,
you know, it's hard to seethem actually make something happen when they're on
their fifth, sixth and seven stringreceiver Brian O'Neal was a tight end in
high school, so he could probablytackle probably one hundred and fifty pounds later

(33:22):
in high school. Bit yeah,so it's it's tough. I think you
do have to start Dobbs, hopefullynot as your QB one, but if
you if you're in a two quarterbackleague, throw him in there. You'd
like to think that Alexander Madison getsa bump now that he's not splitting carries,
But he wasn't splitting carries the firstsix weeks and he didn't do anything

(33:43):
with that then, so I havelow expectations for him. Jordan Madison's gonna
play, You're gonna start him.If Hockinson plays, you start him,
everybody else. I don't know,Yeah, because you don't know who.
I don't know who's gonna I don'tknow who's gonna be in. And if
none of them are in, maybeI don't start Josh Dobbs because he's gonna

(34:04):
be throwing to the dudes pulled outof the stands again. You know who
will be lyle in the guillotine league, throwing it out there to get chopped
off. That is true. We'llsee how about that? All right?
So he got the Houston Texans andCincinnati Bengals. Dude c J. Stroud
every week starter at this point,who knew, Yes, four hundred and

(34:25):
seventy yards, five touchdowns versus Tampalast week. He looks like he's been
out there for a couple of years. He doesn't look like he's he's hurried.
He doesn't look Are we not evendebating it? If he's If he's
healthy for the rest of the season, he's unquestionably the offensive rookie of the

(34:45):
year. Yeah, I think hecould. He could knock on Wood get
hurt week thirteen if he was playinglike this. Even if he doesn't play
the last five games, still,I think he's probably Rookie of the year.
Well, hopefully we don't have tofind out. I agree, Jacket,
Are we crying? Are we throwinghim and throwing him to Canton already?
H Does he have a bust?Cincinnati's twenty third against fantasy quarterbacks in

(35:09):
the last four weeks, So yeah, I think CJ Stroud until he stops
doing what he's doing, you know, and doesn't do it for a stretch
of weeks, and then yeah,I will continue to play him. Damian
Pierce questionable with an ankle. Hewas out last week. Devin Singletary got
all the cares. He went thirteenfor twenty six. That's two. So

(35:30):
I'm not going to worry about anyof those guys. I do like Nico
Collins, even though he was onlythree for five for fifty four, did
have a touchdown last week. Hecan go off at any time. And
even with the fifty four yard threecatch deal, you know, it was
still decent numbers out of a youknow, out of a what you would
call a down game, I guess. But Tank Dell, good lord,

(35:53):
you know, I like this guy. Preseason. I have a lot of
shares of him in a lot ofleagues. He led the team targets in
Week nine that was last week,one hundred and fourteen yards, two touchdowns.
He has three twenty plus point gamesin twenty twenty three. I'm not
gonna say he's a wide receiver oneon this team, but he's getting good

(36:14):
targets. Clearly they trust him inthe red zone, so I'm gonna roll
him as well. Skinny Gabe Davis. Is that what it is? I
think so. So you don't likehim either, I do kind of like
him, I'll be honest, allright, fair enough. I like a
tiny guy named Tank because it's likeit's his personality and the way he plays,
not necessarily his physical attributes. Andoddly, Noah Brown had one hundred

(36:37):
and fifty three yards and a touchdown. I did see a meme where it
showed like the top four receivers ofthe week, and they're all four.
There was Ceedee Lamb and three formore Cowboys. It's like, see,
the Cowboys did have talent, theyjust didn't know how to use it.
Love it anyway. So I don'tknow if I'm gonna play Noah Brown or
not. It was kind of ananomaly. Dalton Schultz, on the other

(36:59):
hand, got targeted eleven times,caught ten of them for a buck thirty.
He's a monster touchdowns and four outof his last five he had a
touchdown last week too, So notjust the guy. He's targeted quite a
bit. He's a part of thepassing game. So that's kind of thing
dreams are made of when he comesto tight ends kid, So yeah,
I'm gonna play me some. DaltonSchultz from the sensey side, basically,

(37:20):
if he got a Bengal, playhim. I mean Burrow of course,
mix and TD is in his lasttoo. The running ain't great, but
you know it's PPR. Hopefully youhave him in that sort of setup.
The PPR helps. He catches threeto five passes a game, and he
kind of gets him into useful territory, so he's at least flexworthy. Jamar
Chase has a back issue. He'squestionable. Of course he's gonna play him.

(37:42):
If he's in te Higgins who showedup in a decent way as questionable
with a hammy, so play him. Tyler Boyd is useful as well.
So yeah, if you got askill position player in a Bengals uniform,
maybe not earth Smith, but theother guys absolutely, for sure. I
kind of got the same thing herebecause I got forty nine ers Jacks.

(38:06):
It's the only good game I havethis week. But basically play everybody,
but we'll go through him just togo through the motion rock Party's. He's
questionable to play at the quarterback position. He just doesn't put up huge numbers,
but they're good enough that if he'ssomehow you're starter. He probably isn't.

(38:30):
But if you're a biby you havemy homes and party or something like
that. Yeah, yeah, Iwould definitely play him. I mean,
last last game they lost to theBengals, Right, he only had one
touchdown, but he threw for threeto sixty five in that game, he
still had twenty points. Like that'ssuper playable. Sure, No, at

(38:52):
least a QB two of a superflex might want to play Christian McCafferty.
Who guy has thirteen touchdowns in eightgames? Well is it? Are you
serious? Yeah? I did notknow it's that much. I saw some
four through the air and nine onthe ground. I saw some high school
footage of him a couple of daysago, and he when he got the

(39:14):
ball just like fire shot out ofhis ass. He might as well have
because he would start running as fastas he could and nobody could catch him.
It was just let me, letme hit you guys with his points
in a PPR for this year,Right, I'm gonna start at week one,
twenty five point nine, twenty twopoint five, twenty two point nine,
forty eight point seven, thirteen pointeight, fourteen point two, twenty

(39:36):
two point six, twenty nine pointeight, fourteen. What happened in the
fourteen game? What you said hehad a game where he had fourteen points?
What the hell hadened? That iscorrect? He was eleven for forty
three on the ground. He wasthree for nine through the air, but
he did score a touchdown against Cleveland, so that got him the fourteen if

(39:58):
that's your worst week by far,but no, it was thirteen point eight
was the week before that against Dallasand they blew Dallas out. But he
lost a fumble in that game,so he lost a couple of points.
You know that that fumble at thegoal line where he was about the score.
Right, Yeah, he is thebest running back in the NFL.

(40:19):
And it's not even close. Yeah, there is no second. It's not
like one a you know, it'snot even close. Remember back when it
was it was McCaffrey and Saquon,which do I take? No, No,
No, he is Look he's twentyseven now it probably won't last that
much longer, but good god,he's a monster. Obviously play him.

(40:44):
Play everybody else too. Brandan Ayukhad a monster game. Now Divo will
be back, so that might possiblychange things. But I played both of
them. You're gonna play Kittle obviously. I mean silly like one of the
best titles in the NFL. Fromthe other side, I don't think I

(41:04):
would start Trevor Lawrence. No,he has been top ten once, so
you wouldn't start Trevor. But youwould put brock Parity at a QB two.
I would, but you wouldn't putTrevor Lawrence at KB two. Correct.
Interesting Rock Party has a four touchdowngame. Trevor Lawrence is your game,

(41:29):
d Trevor. Trevor Lawrence has twotwo multiple touchdown games on the year.
Again, this is what I talkto you guys about. Preseason Week
one he had two tds. Weeksix, he had two tds. Week
two against Kansas City had none.The rest of the year he had one.

(41:50):
So TV's are fine, but talkto me about actual fantasy points,
because Party is not putting up crazypoints either. He's way better to Trevor
Lawrence. He had one bad gameagainst Cleveland, he had eight points,
but he's way better than Trevor Lawrence. Okay, Lawrence's points are eighteen nine,
fifteen, sixteen, fifteen, fifteen, eighteen fifteen. Well he's consistent.

(42:15):
Okay, Cool, that's not sexyat all now for sure. Cool
Party sixteen fourteen, Cool twenty twentyone, twenty six, the bad eight,
fourteen and twenty. I mean,he's he's just he's just better.
He's just better. I like himas a ball game manager, but as

(42:39):
a fantasy quarterback. I do notlike Trevor Lawrence. I doubt I'm out
done with the nonsense. You've hadall you can stands, and you can't
stands no more at TM as amonster. The past three weeks, he's
been top five, past four weeks, He's been top five only three weeks

(42:59):
on his season, has he not? Christian Kirk might be better than Calvin
Ridley seemingly, Yeah, play themboth kind of like. I get that,
But I think Kirk might be thenumber one receiver on the on this
team. I think it doesn't hurtthat it doesn't hurt that he's got Ridley

(43:22):
on the other side, but itdoesn't. But I like him more and
I'm gonna this is crazy, butEvan Ingram is a must start tight end
in the NFL. Somehow, hehad ten targets against Pittsburgh and he caught
all ten of them. Nice.He did lose a fumble. You know,

(43:44):
can't be he's having Ingram. He'snot gonna Giants. Geen is still
in him somewhere, right. Youknow he's never going to be Evan at
the tight end position in a PPR. If you have ten targets and you
listen, target five, eight,seven, seven, ten, right,
and he catches most of them,I wish I would have drafted this dude

(44:08):
playing. Yeah, it's not likehe's doing us you know, seam routes
or anything. He's he's stopping andturning back and you know, the balls
right there. So it's not likethe past the routes he's running or difficult
to target. So yeah, absolutely, all right, Next up we have
I guess this is my best game, Cleveland going to Baltimore, tough division

(44:30):
game. This is a two teamsof really good defenses. But this is
a trap game for Baltimore. Iagree. Now, both of these teams
records say that they're good. Ithink if you watch them both play,
Baltimore is definitely the better team,better defense. Maybe, I don't know.

(44:52):
The Cleveland defense is really good.I think is kind of defensive player
of the year right now. Yeah, and I'm not sure it's close,
but I just think Baltimore's offense isbetter by a considerable amount. Look in
at the Cleveland offense. DeShawn hisfirst couple of games were pretty good.

(45:17):
He was then injured for a coupleof weeks. They had a buy in
there. He came back and playeda game through five passes, one of
them was a pick. He missedtwo more games, came back last week
and put up decent numbers. Nothingcrazy against Baltimore. I'd like to think
he's not gonna have a good timebecause that kind of happens with division games.

(45:42):
I don't think i'd I don't thinki'd start him this week. It
feels weird, but I don't thinkI would. Running backs on this team
are I think flex is at bestin this matchup. They've shown flashes of
goodness, but again, Baltimore's defenseis just stifling. I'm going to get

(46:07):
a T shirt with that put ontheir flashes of goodness. There you go.
Amaro Cooper should be a top fifteenreceiver, hasn't been. I really,
I think he's at best of widereceiver three. You're probably gonna play
him because you drafted him to beone of your starters, but I wouldn't
expect it very much. Elijah Mooreis really just a guy this year.

(46:30):
I had great expectations for him,but hasn't been doing much well. A
lot of that comes back to howwell the quarterback's playing. Watson's not playing
well, so the receivers. Well, it's not like he's getting targeted nine
times and only catching two of thembecause Deshawn's not getting the ball to him
where you can catch it. He'sjust not getting targeted. He's got like
no volume, which is crazy tome. David Njoku is a startable tight

(46:53):
end. He is a top atop twelve tight end. That is what
I'll say about him. It's notsaying much because there's really only like eight
good tight ends, but he istop twelve for sure. If he's on
your team, You're probably gonna starthim tier four, but top twelve.
There you go for the Ravens.Lamar traditionally destroys the Browns. I can

(47:20):
pull up the stats here of thelast several times that Lamar has played the
Browns. It's not good for theBrowns. He played them is he played
them earlier this year had twenty eightpoints. Last year he only played them
once. I guess last year youonly got ten points that time. Anyway,

(47:45):
earlier this year he played him,destroyed them. Now they're playing at
home. I expect similar destruction.So I think you're going to start Lamar
really all that to just get tothat point. Thanks, You're gonna start
the MVP candidate quarterback. Yeah yeah, thanks Robin and there. It reminds

(48:07):
me of a Beatles song, TheLong and Winding Road. But we got
there. Hey, hey, mightwant to play Patrick Mahomes when he plays
too, not when he plays theBroncos apparently. Oh oh, anyway,
go into this Ravens running back room. I kind of like all of them.

(48:31):
Gus Edwards only had five carries butscored two touchdowns, had seventeen points.
Thank God, won me a game. That nerd uh, just as
Hill hate the wide receivers, Ikeep playing him. I hate him.
Yeah, I'll get there. JusticeHill had thirteen carries, the most of

(48:54):
any of the running backs, butonly got forty yards, which wasn't great.
Now, Dad, and you're gonnalight this one. Keaton Mitchell,
Oh, the rookie back for hisfirst major involved game, was only in
for eighteen percent of snaps, ninecarries, one hundred and thirty eight yards,

(49:14):
and a touchdown. I think we'regoing to be seeing a lot more
of him this week. He's tiny, he's one hundred and eighty pounds,
but he's like the third fastest runningback of the combine. This second fastest,
Yeah, only behind well behind JamiorGibbs and like one other dude.
Yeah, he's he's very good andwe saw that last week. I don't

(49:36):
know if, sorry, if he'sgoing to out score, out touch the
other two running backs, but he'sI'm hopeful I have him in in the
league. Yeah, but he's obviouslyproducing like crazy, so definitely put him
in at least in a flex ifyou've got the space for him. Now,

(49:57):
Cleveland's defense is very good, butbut having Lamar Jackson under center or
in the shotgun next to you whenyou get the handoff, makes it much
much easier to run through an openhole when they have to have two or
three guys waiting for him to takeoff. H Honestly, you have any
of these running backs from the team, you probably wouldn't have him in.

(50:17):
Like you were saying, low,the receivers are really mediocre. Zay Flowers
looks enticing every week, and thenI love them both, but they don't
love you. But production is notthere. Yeah, it's just eh.
That's what I'll say about the receiversis eh. And then obviously you're gonna

(50:42):
start to Yeah, I'm really lightingup this game, Mark Andrews, You're
gonna start him. That's it.We're just teasing about it. I think
my clothes went out of style.Lie waited for Robbie to finish the game.
Yeah, yeah, game game wherehe talked about literally the MVP him
and then like no one else whoRobbie may not be back next week,

(51:07):
guys, he may tell us ourselves, all right, I have the Green
Bay Packers and the Pittsburgh Steelers heretalk about terrible games. Who all right,
So Jordan love if you're looking fora fourteen point per game, QB
loves your man, that's pretty muchwhat he's going to give you. First
three weeks of the season, hewas into the twenties and we're like,

(51:29):
hey, this is Jordan love guy. And then I don't know, maybe
the defensive coordinators on other teams gotfilm on him and said all you have
to do is this. Yeah,So since not great, Pittsburgh is seventh
versus quarterbacks in their last four,So maybe a quarterback two if you got
that option. Otherwise you gotta havea better option here. Aaron Jones is

(51:52):
qushable with a handy. Last weekhe went twenty for seventy three and a
tuddy happy to see that he gottwenty carries. That means, you know,
the Packers think he's fully back.So until he gets hurt again,
I'm playing him. Thank god.Christian Watson as questionable with a back he
may not go. If he doesn't, then I'm definitely gonna go with Romeo
Dobbs touchdowns and two out of hislast three. Even if Christian Watson is

(52:17):
in, he's flecksworthy. If ChristianWatson's out, I would raise him a
bit in the rankings. Jaden Reidhit or miss really not really any consistency
there. I've played him in afew leagues and he's gotten me, you
know, ten or twelve points,so good enough for a flex. Luke
Musgrave is just a guy. Iplay him every single week in the Scott's

(52:37):
fish Bowl because they really boost uptight end scoring there, So he gets
me like twenty five points a game. But in a regular scoring situation,
you know you could do worse,but he could certainly do better. Not
top twelve from the Steelers side cango anywhere near picket, of course.
Najee Harris, on the other hand, fifteen PPR points and two out of

(52:58):
the last three. Bay is twentythirty against running backs on the season,
so a pretty good matchup for Harrisand Warren as well. In a PPR
he'd be a decent running back towhere Reflex does most of himage his damage
in the passing game. But he'sbeen getting more runs lately, so it's
interesting to see they're committee more tothe run as the weather gets colder.

(53:20):
Deontay Johnson last three games since hisreturn. We know the guy's a target
monster and he's had tart twenty ninetargets in three games. That's about just
under ten to you and me.Rob caught twenty of them eighty five yards
a game, and a TD caughthis first touchdown last week, Green Bay's
fourteenth against wide receivers for the lastfour games. So regardless, I'm going

(53:43):
to play Deontay Johnson because he's atarget monster. We know this. Pickens
is streaky. He's good if youcan count on that streak. He's paldy
if he doesn't get the ball.Last week, you know you saw Deontay
Johnson and celebrating his first touchdown intwo years. Teammates Claireman around him.
Pickens is just strolling off the field. I don't know. Not a good

(54:06):
teammate from all indications. Maybe great, but it doesn't look like he is.
So play him or not. Ican't really recommend him until we get
some consistency out of him and thetight ends for Pittsburgh with freer of youth
out, I really can't count onthem to be consistent for you either,
Nice man, do I have totalk about Titans bucks? You gotta talk

(54:30):
about kay Ditton? No, Idon't. He had a great game.
What do you mean not to talkabout Will Levis. Uh, Derek Henry,
you're gonna start, obviously, he'sa monster. Uh d Hop,
I think you have to start.He's not consistent, but he's good enough

(54:50):
to do damage. I mean itgains Atlanta, had three touchdowns and a
buck twenty eight. You know,I know it's and you gotta play from
the buck side. What I willsay about Baker Mayfield is that he's statistically

(55:13):
fantasy better than Trevor Lawrence. Heis. So if you're like, oh
my gosh, Trevor Lawrence, thenyeah, play Baker Mayfield because he's better.
Get mad at me. I sawa mock up of Trevor Lawrence with
a Peyton Manning haircut, completely different. Look, I'm not trying to beat

(55:39):
up on Trevor Lawrence. I'm justsaying he's not a good fantasy. It
sounds like you're kind of hating Thereonlet'sokay, Mayfield is way better. He's
finished better almost every single week.But but are you excited about playing Baker?
No? No, then why arewe excited about Trevor Lawrence? I
have zero shares of Trevor Lawrence andI'm I'm flying with that. Just saying

(56:02):
Rashad White I would love to loveagainst Houston in a losing effort. He
had twenty carries just just seventy threeyards. Right, that's not good.
Then he caught four passes for anotherforty six in a PPR league. Guess

(56:22):
where he finished because he had twotouchdowns. He was RB one. Woo
he is not. He's finished topten one other time. I don't know
what to do with these guys.Yeah, put him in a flex.
I guess well, some of ushave to start him on the ship.
That breaks your heart when a whena running back who doesn't finish high finishes

(56:46):
number one, it breaks your heart. If you have him on your bench,
it does. Oh yeah, wellwhy would you start him? He's
RB twenty twenty five. Usually,well you start him because you don't have
anybody else because they're all hurt.Right, That's why he started on exactly

(57:08):
because you drafted Nick Chubb and DavidMontgomery. Yeah, you know, Evans,
I think you have to play Godwindid not have a great game against
Houston, but I think you haveto continue to play him as well.
And let's talk about kay Dot Sure, Okay, he was tight end two
last week with a couple of touchdowns. He did lose a fumble and they

(57:30):
lost the game. But I agreewith you, Robbie, that was a
good performance. His other ones havenot been, so I would not recommend
him. While we were watching thegame, lyle I said he after he
caught a second touchdown, like,you got to talk about this on Wednesday.
I mean, he's been top tenone other time and it was Week

(57:51):
four against against New Orleans, andhe did catch a touchdown on that game.
So he will do that occasionally ifhe listen, if he scores another
touchdown on this game, okay,maybe they recognize something and they're gonna use
it in the red zone or whatever. Okay, then we can start talking
about it. Otherwise, I agree, he's just a guy. Yeah,

(58:14):
I'm just meaning he really isn't anythingspecial. But had to mention it speaking
of the UK Atlanta going to Arizona. H. My notes on this game
are yikes, oh no, andh. I don't really think it's a
smart idea to play any Falcon rightnow, Taylor Heineke did, Okay,

(58:39):
he wasn't anything special. That's kindof his jam though, isn't it.
That's kind of what he does.Yeah, yeah, eh, so you're
not starting him. Would love tostart Beijon. He's not doing anything.
Well, apparently he's a good decoy. Yeah, apparently he's really good at

(59:00):
on the coverage away from their fifthrounder. But you know, he hasn't
had a relevant or at least afantasy performance that matches up to where you
drafted him since like week four.He's just not getting any usage. You're
gonna start him because you drafted himto be your starter, but if you

(59:20):
have another option, don't start him. I don't know. After week ten
though, you got to start playingproducers and not names. That's what I'm
saying, Like, if you havesome money that has been producing, get
him out of there. You know, if you've got Keaton Mitchell, take
Bijon out. Put Keaton Mitchell in. You know, I really wonder how
long Arthur Smith would last on thestreet if he was walking through downtown in

(59:43):
Atlanta. How long? Not verylong? And I think I think it
would be a costed fourthwith Yeah,it's it's not good. Tyler. Algier
has has been like out touching JonRobinson, which as a frequent owner of
Algier, I appreciate, but youknow, give your eighth overall, pick

(01:00:05):
the ball. I really at best. Both of those guys are flexes given
the current state of their offense.The wide receivers, same sort of thing.
I mean, Drake London is notgetting targeted even as much as he
was last year, so he's notreally worth starting because it's a touchdown.
You know, he could be youknow, why is you for three value?

(01:00:28):
Nobody else on that team is Johnnew Smith is honestly the most valuable
player on the offense. So tryyour best not just start a falcon.
They'll all go off this week,of course, because I've said that,
but it's not a smart idea whatI did my notes for this game.
Kyler Murray was not yet named thestarter, so my notes are, don't

(01:00:52):
play any Cardinals, but now youprobably could. James Connor coming back from
ir he in this week. Idon't know. I'm saying if he does
come back and play, yea,then he'll be a good start. If
he doesn't, I wouldn't start anyof the backups. Kyler coming back and

(01:01:13):
playing does great things for the receivers, but I don't know if it's going
to be, you know, backas it was last year before he got
injured, he's still probably going tobe, you know, getting rid of
some rust, getting loose again.So I still don't think the players are

(01:01:37):
going to be more than flexes orwide receiver three. Unless he just blows
everything out of the water. I'dkeep your expectations low. There, gotcha?
Is that it? Yeah? Allright? So this is probably my
worst game. I mean there's alot of bad games this week. Guys.

(01:01:57):
It's the Giants against the Cowboys inDallas. Yes, So for the
Giants it's pretty easy. There's oneplayer you can't sit at, Saquon Barkley.
I would expect absolutely nothing from himbecause he's all they have. So
you got Tommy DeVito getting the start, Matt Barkley backing him up, and

(01:02:20):
there was some excitement about Barkley gettingcalled her from the practice squad, which
tells you something right there about whereGiants fans heads are at. When you're
like, whoa Barkley? Yeah?Nine in the box for Saquon, you
think yeah. Anyway, So movingon to Dallas, of course he's gonna
play Dak Prescott. Dude's averaging threehundred and sixteen yards per game with eight

(01:02:40):
touchdowns and just one pick in hislast three. Dude's playing well. I
mean, you know, not abig fan of the Cowboys. Don't mind
Dak Prescott, suore. He's ahell of a guy. He's been in
the NFL Man of the Year,So as soon as he stops being a
Cowboy, then I feel is allI can like him again. But if
I have shares of Dak Prescott,I'm happy hell and I'm playing him.
Tony Pollard it only has one onehundred yard rushing game this season, no

(01:03:06):
touchdowns since Week one. I playhim just based on the matchup and the
fact that he plays running back ina good offense. But the numbers just
aren't there. I wouldn't even sayon an inconsistent basis, They're just not
not They're just not there. CeedeeLamb is an other start, of course,
three hundred and forty nine yards andtwo touchdowns in his last two Yeah,

(01:03:28):
you're going to play him. Andalso give a look at Jake Ferguson.
He had fourteen targets and eleven catchesover the last couple of weeks,
added in a couple of touchdowns inthere as well, so they're targeting him
consistently every game. And he's actuallyproducing with the chances he's getting. So
yes, I would also play Jakethe Snake Ferguson fair enough? Is that

(01:03:52):
on me? Now? Yes?Sir? Oh dude, he going to
play the Cowboys defense too? Yeah? Yeah, you want to play the
Cowboys? D got Lions, Chargers. Okay, I want to start pretty
much everyone in this game. Yeah, golf is inconsistent, but good enough,

(01:04:13):
especially against this defense, that Iwould play one. Of course,
I want to play at Gibbs.He was fantastic the past two weeks.
But Montgomery might play now, Sowhat do you do there? It really
depends on the coaching staff because Montgomerywas really good before he got hurt.

(01:04:36):
Oh yeah, he was a beast. So playing for the best, I
guess. So if you have oneof them, stick them into flex and
pray I'm an raw, you're gonnaplay. Obviously. He has been fantastic
on the year, particularly in thelast three games he's he's been over one

(01:04:58):
hundred. He's been over a hundred, and he didn't play Week five because
he was hurt. He's been overone hundred in five of the seven games
that he's played in That is unheardof in the NFL. Good for him
and Sammue. Laport'sa Robbie's favorite playeris projected tight end number one this week.

(01:05:23):
And I don't I don't think that'scrazy. I think he's like the
next maybe not Gronk. He's notquite as big as Gronk, but he
just looks like him. Man.He just fights for the ball, gets
targeted a ton. I mean,you know, before the before the buye
he he caught eight ten targets fora touchdown fifty seven yards. I know,

(01:05:45):
you know it's only fifty seven.But he's just a beast. We're
talking about a tight end, nota receiver. That's amazing. Yeah,
I know, Look, his catchesand targets are insane, and he's got
four TVs on the year. Ilove him. Definitely play it from the
charter side. You're gonna play Herbert, obviously, you're gonna play Ackler.

(01:06:05):
Obviously. Did you guys see theKeenan Allen catch? Oh? It was
it was nutty. How old isthat guy? Okay, targets nine ten,
twenty five against Vegas somehow eleven nineten nine, right, I mean,
they're just throwing him the football.The twenty target game was just bananas

(01:06:29):
to watch. That was against Minnesota. They actually won that game, which
is rare for them. But they'vewon two in a row now against Chicago
and the Jets. Okay, well, this is what they do. They
start off awful, then they wina few games, and then they finished
awful. Okay, fair enough,but you're gonna play him obviously. Yeah.

(01:06:50):
I don't actually hate Gerald Everett becauseof his touchdown potential, doesn't get
a lot of targets, doesn't geta lot of catches, but they target
him in the red zone. Andif you're you know, you have Travis
Kelce for example. He is nota terrible by week feeling, I am
out, all right, this ismy last game here, fellas. I

(01:07:12):
have the Commanders going up to Seattle. I've been kind of touting Sam Howel
all season, but I think thisis a game. I'm gonna sit him.
Seattle plays court. You're giving methis look. I know Seattle plays
quarterbacks incredibly tough. Sam How's likea top five quarterback. I know you
know who else? The top fivequarterback, Lamar Jackson eleven points last week.

(01:07:34):
Seattle's played now eight games this year, two quarterbacks have scored more than
twelve points against their defense, andthat was Week two and three in Seattle.
They're in Seattle. Yeah, I'msitting Sam Howell this week that the
defense is really the secondary specifically isphenomenal. You know, I don't.

(01:07:59):
I'm not saying he's been quarterback.I've been. I've been you know,
ball washing them all season. He'sgreat ball washing. But I just don't
think this is the right matchup forhim, so I'm putting him on the
bench. That's a rather graphic descriptionof what you've been doing. Well,
I'm not gonna lie to you,guys. The running backs in this game,
I think are flexed is the best. That's kind of been the way

(01:08:21):
it has been all season. AntonioGibson started to get more work in the
passing game, but it doesn't reallymatter that much. The wide receivers here.
I think the wide receivers are actuallygoing to do okay, even though
I don't think Sam is going todo okay. I expect him to have
a lot of yards but not alot of touchdowns. So the receivers are
going to get most of their pointsfrom catches and yards. But I like

(01:08:45):
all three of them. Terry,I think Terry McLaurin is wide receiver two
potential, Dotson and Samuel probably flexes. Dotson has been doing a lot better
the past couple of weeks. Histarget shares started to go up three weeks
ago week seven, and then theproduction has kind of followed Sudi as two
straight games of top ten wide iceriverfinishes and to get two straight games with

(01:09:06):
a touchdown, so that could continue. But again the secondary for Seattle is
very good, so we'll have tosee what happens. Logan Thomas, similar
to Njoko, is one of thosetop twelve tight ends, so you're probably
gonna be starting him just from volumealone. I think he's worth putting in
there. From the Seahawks side,I can't put Gino in my starting roster

(01:09:32):
another week in a row. Heactually got minus two points in a league
that I'm in, just because ofthe scoring system with interceptions and such.
He's just not playing well at all. He doesn't have any good games this
He's becoming the Gino that we allknew. Yeah, it's it's not good.

(01:09:55):
I mean maybe this is a turnaroundgame for him, but there have
been like four other opportunities to seefrom the turn it around and he hasn't
done it, And it's amazing thatthey're actually winning games with terrible quarterback play.
It's wild. Part of that reason, I think is because of the
running back, Kenneth Walker, whoyou're going to start. You just watch

(01:10:15):
him play. Even when the teamisn't doing that great, he's still producing
goodly amounts of Fantasy points, goodly, goodly, So you're gonna start him.
Obviously, you're gonna start DK andTyler Lockett, but I don't think
you really want to start any otherpass catcher. But just because Gino is
playing so poorly, nobody else isgoing to be able to survive on the

(01:10:38):
two targets they're going to get.So I wouldn't even bother looking at anybody
else except for Walker, DK andLockett. There you go. All right,
So you got the Jets and yougot the Raiders. This is the
Sunday night tilt. This is whatthe NFL is doing to us, right.
They give us the Bears and thePanthers on Thursday, then they're giving

(01:11:00):
us the Jets and the Raiders onSunday night. You think that's bad,
wait till the Monday nighter. Yeah, yeah, I got that one all
right. So for the Jets,Breecee Hall, regardless or irregardless of whatever
the team is doing, this guyjust throws out baller numbers. So like
against Denver, one hundred and seventyseven yards a touchdown, three catches a

(01:11:25):
ron, dude, it would bea different story, dangerous team man,
So touchdowns either catching or running.Three out of the last four. Didn't
have a great game against the Chargerssomehow only had fifty yards but did catch
four passes. So uh, basicallythree out of the last four games,
you know, over twenty points infantasy and a PPR. So yeah,

(01:11:47):
you're gonna play Breese Hall. Bythe way, Vegas number thirty two against
fantasy running backs for the last fourgames, so pretty good. It should
be pretty good for Breecee. Igotta play Garrett Wilson, even even though
I don't really trust, don't trustit all, really, Zach Wilson,
you got you can't sit Garrett Wilson. From the Raiders side, they looked
a little bit better last game outfrom under a little bit out from under

(01:12:11):
Josh McDaniels. They looked like theywere having a good time. If nothing
else, well, the Giants area dumpster fire. What are you going
to do? Yeah, well,guess what. Jets defense is a little
bit better. So it's okay,it's a lot better. I'm still gonna
play Josh Jacobs against the Giants.He had twenty six carries, almost one
hundred yards, a couple of touchdowns. He was he was RB one last
week. Yeah, he looked Joshjacob'sish. Also gonna play Davante He he

(01:12:35):
did like literally nothing against the Giants, but still in the locker room after
the game, he looked happy becausethey got the win. So good teammate.
Good dude. At some point they'regoing to have to try to figure
out how to get him the ball, and I trust the coaching staff that's
there now to do that. ObviouslyMcDaniels couldn't because well he's Josh McDaniels.

(01:12:57):
And that's all that I can sayabout this game's four day Dudes, that's
it fair enough. I'm in asimilar sitch in the last game of the
week, of the month of theyear. It's actually not just this week,
but Broncos Bills man can't recommend RussellWilson. I mean, this guy
threw three touchdowns last week in awin or his last game in a win

(01:13:20):
against Kansas City, and he stillfinished QB fourteen seventeen points. Wow,
So what mean? So he gottwelve points out of touchdowns, so you
only got five more points out ofhe had one hundred and fourteen yards.
Oh my god. Yeah, he'sfinished top ten twice this year. It's

(01:13:44):
you know, it was one ofhis best performances, but yet he still
is not top twelve yet yet.Not about good performance. It's hard to
play Javonta Williams. I mean,he gets some action, but he's a
desperation flex at best. Courtland Suttonis an absolute must start. I know

(01:14:10):
that sounds crazy on this team,but he's got only two games that he
didn't score a touchdown in. He'sa flex, that's pretty much it.
But he, you know, dude, to six touchdowns on the year.
It's hard to say. Now.Jerry Judy, on the other hand,
only has one. I can sayno and I will no, thanks happily

(01:14:33):
from the Bill's gonna play Josh Allenobviously, he is QB, you know,
a million every one. Basically he'sdone that three times this year,
so you know he's been outside ofthe top ten twice. He's phenomenal.

(01:14:54):
James Cook is this whole running gamethere is just it's just non exist I
wonder how good they would be ifthey had a competent back, and they
might actually have one and then actuallychose to dedicate themselves to this, because
when they run the football, likeagainst Tampa, like they ran him fourteen
he was four point eight, right, But in the loss against Jacksonville he

(01:15:19):
only had five carries and he hadnegative four yards. Lombardi Lenni's in town,
bro whatever this is all about,Steph Diggs and Josh Allen. We
know that gonna play. Steph gonnaplay. Josh gave Davis Robbie hats.
I don't blame me. He missedboth of his targets against Cincinnati the week

(01:15:42):
before, he had twelve targets,caught none of them for a touchdown.
I don't know what to do withthis guy. Two weeks before that against
the Giants, which they only scoredfourteen points in that game, he was
wide receiver one hundred. Oh mygod, I know what you do with
him. Trade him to somebody elseto deal with. I don't know.
Dog Kin Cave is an absolute muststart. Obviously, I feel like he's

(01:16:06):
just I mean again, in aloss against Sincy guy called eleven, it's
ten passes on eleven targets for eightyone yards. That's a lot. Week
before was five on seven targets forsixty five in a snake like got it
the week before eight for eight seventyfive. Gotta do it. Look,

(01:16:29):
I know he's young, I knowhe's a rookie. I know this is
Buffalo whatever. It's a tight endman playing out. Yeah, it's not
like there was be them games,them games. Where were you going to
say? I was saying, it'snot like you have a lot of other
options at tight end that are youknow, pushing him to the side.
He's not great, but he's prettygood. Hey, any points from the

(01:16:51):
te position. Yeah, I'm in. That's why we're playing Taysom Hill.
You know, I feel ashamed,Like whenever I put him in, I'm
like I want to go wash my, you know what I mean. But
you know, then here comes tothe points of action on Sunday and I'm
like, all right, well,you know that's why we do this.
Yeah, that's why we do it. So let's get to some questions here,

(01:17:14):
guys, we have some uh someme Reddit questions here. A wizard
of caught ah says one point ppR pick two Garrett Wilson in Vegas,
Nico Collins at Cincy, Drake Londonat Arizona. Not London, Yeah,
not London. Well, well,I mean if Nico, I mean he's

(01:17:35):
in practice today. If he doesn'tplay, you gotta go London. But
do you you don't? You don'tgo Garrett? He said pick two?
Didn't he? Oh? Did saypick two? Hell? Yeah, you're
right? Yeah, so god,I'd be hard to pick Drake London with
a straight face and a ship aroundit. It's just you just don't do
it. It's not hard, youjust don't. Yeah. But if Nico's

(01:17:58):
not not playing, you know wYeah? All right, so ready questions
bubba uh not Reddit, this isoh yeah, the discord a man of
steel. So I took your adviceand changed my team name to Jonesing for
Love, and since then have gonefine and one, five and one.

(01:18:18):
I'm putting Jones in my ir justto keep the mojo working. But I'm
looking to pick up QB. Ihave love on the waiver wire. Uh
and the waiver wire has these guysalso have a trade offer to get Watson
and aj Dillon for Swift. Whowould you recommend over love thanks always have
it would I wouldn't take that trade. I would not see the trade.

(01:18:40):
So the list is Levis, Henicky, Henicky, car Young, Minshew,
Picket, Wilson, Is Dobs notavailable somehow he was. It was Arizona's
quarterback, so they probably had himfrom that, just didn't didn't cut him.
Can you go through the waiver onemore timeline? Will Levis, Taylor,

(01:19:01):
Honike, David Carr, Bryce Young, carneran there Carr, I honestly
think Cars probably your I'd feel mostconfident about rolling Car out there as way
number one of that list. Yeah, agreed, I mean Minshew's probably too,
probably. I don't hate I don'thate Minschew. Listen, it's we're

(01:19:25):
picking from the scratch here, Okay. Yeah, So when I say Minshew,
don't be like, yeah, he'sprobably at the next best offense,
right. Yeah. No, ifit's Dynasty, I'm taking Levis. But
yeah, for sure, you reallycan't take Picket because Pittsburgh. You know,
while the record looks good, they'rethe only team in NFL history through

(01:19:47):
I think nine nine games to beout out the yardage. You know.
Basically they were the second best teamon the field each time. Uh the
other team out gained them, exceptthey didn't outscore them in five cases.
So if they have the same recordas the Dallas Cowboys, wild, yeah
they do. It's crazy how theNFL works out. But yeah, obviously

(01:20:11):
I think Carr is the top guy. And then and then if he's not
available for some reason. I seehe's got a week against Arizona. I
might. Ah, against Arizona,I might. It is a four out
of five star matchup, that's forsure. Uh Soo's cars. Bryce Young

(01:20:32):
has a five star matchup against Chicago. He might score twelve points this week,
That's right. He scares me alittle bit. He needs a little
time to develop. Yeah, absolutely, you think if they redrafted, you
think that uh Panthers, that takesStroud. Yes, yeah, of course,
I'm a concerned. I'm concerned forhim though, that he's going to

(01:20:56):
end up being one of those guysthat has four coordinators in four years maybe
and doesn't actually ever get off theground. Because I would have to do
with luck, you know, likeif if tom Brady bounces around the league,
he might be the Beard. Andif the Beard gets drafted and goes
in New England, he might beTom Brady. I really believe that.

(01:21:19):
God, I imagine imagine an alternateworld where the Beard marries Giselle Bunching.
I don't think that's really that weird. The Beard was really good, man.
He was Imagine eight gable situation foreight games coming off the bench.
If he's if he's your backup,watch out, dude, starting quarterback,

(01:21:39):
you're getting hurt. He trashed theEagles so many times every time, no
matter what team. God, thanks. I wonder what would happen if Tyrod
was the starter and the Beard wasthe backup? Ty would lose along Tyrod
goes down. But when Tyro goesdown, the backup always does super well.

(01:22:00):
But then for the Beard, whenthe when the starter goes down here,
so it's like double goodness. Ifthat happens, he just turns into
like Tom Brady tom Brady. Iguess yeah, all right. Scarsdale seven
says p p R. Pick three, DJ Moore at Carolina, Ayuk at
Jacksonville, Godwin at Tennessee, Nicoat Cincy Addison at New Orleans pick three

(01:22:26):
hm hmm hard to sit DJ Moore, Yeah, but gotta play aok right,
Yeah, Ayuk is the only guaranteed. Yes there, If n goes
up, i'd play him against Cincy. Yeah. And then it was DJ
Moore, Godwin and Addison. Uhyeah, it says DJ Moore, Ayuk,

(01:22:50):
Godwin, Collins, Addison. Whoyou're sitting? I think I feel
best about Addison there sitting, nostarting him as as the third start,
So you would play DJ, Ayukand Addison, I think so, thoughts

(01:23:13):
line, Wait, where was thefifth guy? Because I thought I was
sitting DJ More. You got DJyou got a Yuk, you got Godwin,
you got Collins, you got Addison. Oh yeah, no it's uh
are you Colins and Adison? I'mstarting, I'm saying DJ Yeah, if
it was, If it was JustinFieals, I'm sorry him. But you
you concur a wile I do Okay, Uh, you got another discord question.

(01:23:40):
I don't think you do well.I'm sorry, Door dashes messing me.
Yeah, I do. Two lv uh is says Dobbs are Baker?
Well, clearly it's Baker unless JustinJefferson's plays in the Jefferson plays and
it's Dobbs, Yeah, I wouldgo for that. I think I think
Baker's probably more things to throw to. Yeah, and clearly he's better than

(01:24:02):
Trevor Lawrence, so you gotta go. Thunderscore eighty one says happy to find
out that the podcast availability issue waspurely technical and it wasn't even our technical,
which is best. I think youhad some of us worried out there,
Like I said, somewhere I can'tremember where, maybe in Reddit.
If you don't find it in yourusual place where you usually find it,

(01:24:25):
you can go to the Fantasy footballguysdot Com, slash hello and see other
places where you can get it.You can get it on Spotify, you
can get it right from spreaker.So if it's not in your usual place,
it doesn't mean it's not out there. It just means it's not in
this usual place. We'll keep aneye on it this week to make sure
it goes up anyway. So Thunderscoresays, pick two running backs and a
half point peeper John Taylor at NewEngland, Saquon Barkley at Dallas, Camara

(01:24:51):
at Minnesota. Boy. This mightbe the easiest question ever sos, Taylor
Caamara. That's it. That's thetwo running backs. What was the last
Yeah, so this is my currentorder, though I'm not about I'm about
split between Saquon and Kamara based onSaquon's health. Dude. For me,

(01:25:14):
it's the quarterback and there's going tobe a thousand in the box and Dallas
has a really good defense. Evenif Danny Dimes was there, I probably
may, you know, temper myexpectations on Saquon anyway, So yeah,
Taylor and Scamara, Yeah for sure, for sure. Yeah again, if
you had different situation, on mightlay. But yeah, and also since

(01:25:38):
Deebo seems healthy again, he's up, he's in, he's he's going.
So would you play Deebo Jacks ortashm at Minnesota? Ooh, Taysom No,
I played Debot. I wouldn't.I would explain yourself. Let me
pull up his stats, Debo stats. I would play Depot. I love

(01:26:00):
Taysom Mill, but I haven't playedDiva. I would figure out a way
to play them both if I could, But I'm playing Diva. Yeah,
who's your unless you have andrews Kittleor what end you putting in to the
flex Taysom right, but you havedebo. Uh huh, so you're playing

(01:26:26):
debo in your smell Taysom Mill?Is there a wager between you guys here?
Could maybe do a little wager.I don't want to bet against Taysom
Mill. I don't want to betagainst him, so Taysom will just go
off. Yeah, I need itfrom my deep Uh yeah, I I

(01:26:46):
think I would probably play debo thereas well. But Robbie, I see
your point. My My whole pointabout Taysom is is he could get two
points this week. We've seen itthis year. Now they seem to have
gone to him and they're winning gamesthat way, so you know, who
knows what the future will bring.But they're going to figure out a way
to get Deebo the ball in alot of places and a lot of spaces.

(01:27:08):
And I just kind of like hisupside, all right, I rhyme
that. Do you see that anyway? E ray La says, hey,
Fellows, Well, I've scrapped togethera few wins and I'm still in the
hunt for a playoff spot. Now. The way my league is set up,
there's huge bonuses for defense plays.So my question is Detroit at Chargers

(01:27:29):
or Browns at Ravens ooh leading Detroit, but the pundit show Browns ranking top
ten. I would play the Browns. I listen, I'm gonna play the
defense with the best players, andright now the Browns have that, and
Miles Garrett, I think is thebest defensive player in the NFL. Right
now, I would play that.Yeah, I agree, Yeah, I

(01:27:50):
mean, you know, Detroit isnice and all, but you know,
the Browns have a much better defenseand now they're playing a better team potential.
But still I think that it doesn'treally matter who wins a game is
how many points you get. Soanyway, see also start Kyler or start
party Kyler. I rock Purly Party. Right now, I'm not playing Kyler

(01:28:15):
Murray coming off a year of playingCall of Duty. That's true that the
new Call of Duty does come outlike tomorrow tomorrow. Yeah, yeah,
I'm gonna change my hands at aparty. Then. Yeah, It's like
you don't buy a new model carthe first year. You don't play the
guy coming off of IR in weekten, week one. Now we may

(01:28:36):
come in just lighting it up andthen you play him next week. But
until then, I'm going to playthe guy who has been playing all year
personally. Yeah, and that's thequestions. Guys, It's right, all
right, Ooh, I love you. I mean I'm disgusted by Lyle's kissing

(01:28:57):
sounds. Kevin likes you as afriend. Robbie is obnoxious correct as well
as ampivalent. Nice word, thankyou. All right, We'll be back
for week eleven. Enjoy your weekten stuff. And he's one of my
favorite weeks of the year in football, when the Eagles aren't playing and I
can relax. Agreed, they cannotlose. They cannot lose. Even after

(01:29:23):
this weekend, they're still gonna havethe best record in the NFL. Go
birds, all right, We'll checkyou next week. Enjoy your Week ten
grid iron action and see you.Yeah,
