Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1060.136

That's the biggest negative impact to me. Because to me, Mooney was the one dissecting defenses, timing routes, where Cousins had picked him as a favorite. I don't know.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1075.827

No, the switch involves – I mean, he just came off a goose with Cousins. The variable here of a brand-new quarterback going into semifinal week is too much for me. Mooney was not in a must-start category. He was a flex guy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

108.762

Welcome in. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood, Mr. Moore. Wednesday, December 18th, the Fantasy Footballers in the building. Hello. You just hit us with a Mr. Rogers? Nothing wrong with that. Put on your cardigan. It's the level of calm that we all need for the fantasy semifinal. Oh, and not all of us, but I mean like Al, myself. Okay, that's one league. I'm in plenty of semifinals.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1091.106

So to me, I'd be trying to find somebody with more certainty, and look, it could be the wrong call. We just don't know what to expect from Michael Penix. That's the reality of the situation, and that variable freaks me out. Some people, maybe not. Maybe you're more risk-averse. Maybe you want to take the shot. I don't. I don't think it's good for Bijan.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1109.534

I don't think it's good for the offense predictability-wise.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1127.042

Yeah, they're not scoring.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1160.788

You're just saying that the baseline's been so low for Atlanta for five weeks, it can't get much worse.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1175.218

This is really good math analysis. Yeah. Here's where you go down. Browns are starting Dorian Thompson-Robinson. That sucks. Jameis Winston was benched. It seemed like it was going that direction. That's what we said yesterday, that we kind of expected that, but... Oh, I mean, this is so. Oh, my God. He's never scored more than 13 points in a game as a starter.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1232.662

It's not a great sample because Jerome Ford has played a committee-back role historically with the Browns. His numbers are better splits-wise with DTR than they are Winston, but they're not good with either historically. I was trying to find some correlative, like what do you expect? I mean, he caught more passes with DTR than he did with Winston. It's small stuff. It's not really predictive.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1262.339

He's a starter now. He's not a backup. He is playable in this game. I do believe that the Bengals matchup is going to be very good for Jerome Ford.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1270.841

I think DTR might run a decent amount in this game, and you've got to hope they give you a goal line opportunity for Ford because it's probably going to be one, one opportunity. Three points, 13 points, 12 points, and three starts for him last year. Bengals playing for playoff lives. Browns are done. They're toast. We got IR for Nick Chubb. And Jerry Judy, terrifying. You're probably playing him.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1296.849

I mean, I'd play him over Mooney.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1302.111

Just because of how good he's been and how elite he's been.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1318.775

Titans are also making a switch to a backup. Mason Rudolph taking over for the Titans. This is more of the can't get worse than it was situation. He actually, you know, Calvin Ridley had piles and piles of targets for Mason Rudolph when he started this year. I think he averaged 12 a game. So could it be a little bit better for Calvin Ridley? I think so.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1343.206

I've seen Will Levis play.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1361.938

Aidan O'Connell trending upwards to playing this week. Did you see the comment? I think it was through Barstool. Dave Portnoy had talked to Antonio Pearson in an elevator the other day, and he said he was competing because he's a New England fan. He said, we're completing for the number one pick.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1386.114

Yeah, for first place or something like that. It was some kind of comment regarding the fact that the Patriots and the Raiders are competing for the opportunity to have a higher draft pick. That's where they're at.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1401.558

Yeah, I don't think you win with either guy. But yeah, it was just one of those acknowledgments of the team's demise. Which makes it hard. I mean, Aiden O'Connell is much better than Ritter. However, Brock Bowers' confidence goes down with either guy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1430.51

If O'Connell was there, was he a better start to you than Adam Thielen with Bryce Young in Carolina?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

145.851

But not the one you want to be.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1455.901

Mahomes, full participant in practice. Yeah, that makes sense. He's going to play. Hollywood Brown, full participant in practice for the Chiefs.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1487.833

We also got news that Brees Hall did not practice estimated DMP today.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

149.932

Also, no one needs calm. You don't want peace in your decision-making? I think that's the best kind of decision you can make. You don't want panic. I don't. You want to put your shoes on nice and slow. I want excitement.

So you have two years of pain from one man.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1510.885

Yeah, yeah. It's four knives over two years. George Pickens, DMP on Tuesday, still dealing with the hamstring. We'll monitor that. But that's a scary start as well. You know, if he's active, I'm sure you're playing him. But their offense has not been anywhere the same without him. That was today's News and Notes presented by USAA Insurance.

1635.131

Well, semifinal week will begin on Thursday. Denver traveling to L.A. to take on the Chargers. Denver sitting at 9-5, Chargers 8-6, and slipping. They're slipping. The DraftKings Sportsbook line, Chargers minus 2.5 at home, however. Over-unders just 42. That's low. That's low. Right now, they are both playoff teams.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1656.117

They are currently the 6th and 7th seed in the playoffs and with a decent lead in those spots, but very important game. Both defenses are tied for number one in points per game allowed. So, you know, I don't know. Maybe, Kyle, you can dig up the health of Patrick Sertain because...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

172.924

We also got anxiety from Al Borland in the back. Is it starting to percolate now that you have a matchup in your platform? You can see the projections?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1721.677

Sertan is healthy, by the way, the latest report. So Sertan will be out there. Bo Nix, there's been a lot of trust there with Bo Nix and with Cortland Sutton. The matchup over the last six weeks has been much better. Like you said, the Chargers have given up some points. They've been slipping.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1739.967

Part of it is that their offense is missing pieces and success and running game and short fields and mistakes, and Stone Smart has become a talking point in fantasy. That's not where you wanted to be if you were the Chargers.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1765.285

He had a 6 for 78 game two weeks ago, good enough for 30th. He's had a wide receiver 23 week and a wide receiver 27 week, but no, not very many boom games. McConkie has been really the guy. He's averaging 88 yards a game since the injury or since week eight. So, you know, you can play McConkie. For sure.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1788.9

He is not the kind of player that gets followed all over the place, and he'll have his receptions. Quentin Johnson's healthy, but scary, and I don't know if I'd really want to.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1800.832

This is why I like McMillan more than him and Waver.

The extra cameras can distract.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Oh, okay. I thought you said you were doing good a couple days ago.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

1875.726

Corlin Sutton's in your lineup, though, right? Because this is a situation where you trust the alpha on this offense. But beyond that, I mean, you don't have probably Jillian McLaughlin anymore, so Javante and Estime.

Yeah, okay. All right. Well, it signifies the mailbag, Jason. We are into the mailbag. And if you have a question and you want to subject us to that drop again, by the way, get back. Get well, Mike.

And we have a lot of questions about Jaden Daniels this week. There is significant worry about Daniels versus the Eagles. And the most asked question by far is what quarterbacks would you actually start over Jaden Daniels, who was the quarterback 24 against the Eagles last time. The Eagles defense is very healthy. The offense for Washington is not healthy. Noah Brown is gone.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2055.81

Zach Ertz, probably out. Zach Ertz is a very nice safety blanket underneath for Jaden Daniels moving the football. This one is a tough one. You've got a rookie quarterback in a difficult situation, but he's been so good. Jordan Love against New Orleans. or Jaden Daniels against Philly.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2153.938

So over Goff against Chicago, over Tua against San Francisco? Definitely. Over Darnold against Seattle?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2167.958

Over Baker against Dallas?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2181.387

Okay. Let's jump into a voicemail question here.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2198.177

So Tristan is between Kyler Murray and Bo Nix. Kyler has the Panthers. Panthers are a great matchup for quarterbacks. The Broncos, we just talked about it. Chargers, Thursday night, low over under. I would play Kyler.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2221.259

You were on the or.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2244.025

They're favored by four and a half. Broncos are underdogs by two and a half.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2250.799

Really big popular start-sick questions around Jalen McMillan, Jaden Reed, and JSN. So the Js. Okay. First question from Munoz says, are you worried about JSN?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2308.142

So that would be JSN over McMillan.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2312.425

That would be Jalen McMillan or Keenan Allen for an underdog. I'm going to go – This is from Ben Sharp.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2322.395

He wasn't an option. It was Jalen Millen or Keenan Allen on that one.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

236.425

Yeah, that'll be fun. Just got to take care of business this week. We're going to help you do it. That's what this show is all about. You can find the community at jointhefoot.com. I also wanted to let people know. We mentioned it late on the show. I was just reaching in. We got some mini helmets on shotballers.com now.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2378.072

Yeah? What other coaches? You've been a Tomlin fan.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2382.353

You'd rather play for Dan Campbell?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2395.959

You ever see the story about Andy Reid when he was an offensive coordinator? Yes. And he had to pretend to be yelling in a player's face, and he was basically saying calmly, like, I'm going to be really demonstrative here, and I'm going to say a bunch of stuff. I need you to act like I'm yelling at you, but I just wanted to tell you that you're doing fine and you're doing good with the coach.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2432.247

And he's like, I'm going to come out and pretend I'm yelling at you, but you actually did that. You ran that play pretty well, and I like what you're doing.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2450.874

Yeah, and the tough part about being the player's coach versus tough guy versus all that stuff is it's mostly about when you need to be what. Yes. And that's like kind of emotional intelligence from a coach as opposed to pretending. Like if you decide as a head coach, I need to be tough right now, you've already lost the battle. You should know that already.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2471.766

And if you're like, oh, I need to be a player's coach right now, they will see through that fakeness too.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2492.554

tough lay down some law i think everything is always okay that you know what i mean yeah i get it he's a player's coach that's fun but um yep yep a uh i tend to agree jayden reader discipline uh jayden reader jamison williams logan writes in on instagram wants to know read uh where our confidence is williams where our confidence is

Of Josh Jacobs? You're going to have to finish the sentence. The emergence of Josh Jacobs? Ascension?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2563.587

I would try Jamison Williams out there. Higher probability of that big, big play. An unknown with no David Montgomery and how that offense is going to function, and that unknown can lend itself towards Williams' targets. That's where I would go as well. So we'll take a quick break and jump back into some more mailbag questions.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

Oh, in the middle of the set? Yeah. Yeah, we had some brand new helmets made for the set, and then we've got minis available now at shotballers.com, and you can check those out. They are pretty cool. Yeah, yeah, we've been wanting those for a long time. So we finally got them up there, and we'll have, you know, the Foot Clan title t-shirts coming up at the very end of the year.

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

All right, this next question comes in off of Instagram, Jason. Is Amari Cooper droppable for the Packers defense?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2758.886

I mean, I would not be afraid of my opponent picking up Amari Cooper. I might be excited.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2779.397

Amari Cooper's five games played. Actually, I'll include the game he came and scored a touchdown in week one. Just so you know, Amari Cooper, the bill. Okay. On pace for 45 receptions, 654 yards. Oh, awesome. And 2.8 touchdowns.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

So we'll get the team working on those. It's championship season.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

And it's only 2.8 because he scored one time in that first game. He has not scored since then.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2813.563

Yeah, you got to make the moves now that don't feel like normal moves. If you've conditioned yourself for 13 weeks to think about your insurance back, And having depth at this position and keeping this guy away from somebody else. And you're sitting there and you could pick up the Green Bay Packers against Spencer Rattler and no one and no Camara at Lambeau. You have to make that move.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2842.043

What your potential loss of points is later is lower than your potential gain in points today. You have to live short term. There is no tomorrow. And I promise you, if you lose this week, you will find no solace staring at your bench of depth next week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2937.399

I had made an offer. I'll just lay it out there. This is not a defense. I had made an offer with Amari Cooper. It was Cooper, Njoku, Mooney, and two picks for Chase. No, I'm not doing it, he says. My good fortune was the trade happens. All of a sudden, the sugar plums are dancing in the mind of this other manager.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2960.214

He says, no, I'm not doing that. It just so happened that within the next 24 hours, Cooper goes to Josh Allen and the Bills. The same offer comes back to me. And you couldn't click it quick enough. I mean, so fast, so fast. Yeah, because you got Jamar Chase for nothing. Because I'm already trading Cooper as if he was great. Yes. And there's a what if in the equation.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

When these trades happen, Hopkins. Hopkins got traded for in a lot of leagues with Kansas City. Cooper, when a midseason trade happens, all you see is the greatest possible outcome. Not everybody.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

2993.273

But you're trading it on the value of the accomplishment.

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

3006.057

We've said that for dynasty leagues a lot. We've said that for pre-draft trading, the value of the player. If you're getting the value of them performing to their maximum outcome. Yeah, it's not just trade them. Yeah, then you're winning no matter what. Yeah, because you're getting the value back. Yes. But it is a good point that I have Jamar Chase that you brought up.

Well, no, it would be Kelsey, but I'm wavering on my, like, Otten or somebody else situation. Otten has been awful. Yeah, he's been, you know, but then I look in at Baker and Baker's got three touchdowns. Then he's got four touchdowns the last two weeks.

Yeah, I got Jalen McMillan. You never know. I mean, if Mixon was out, would you be playing Damian Pierce against Kansas City, sharing the backfield with Agumbo Wallet, or would you play McMillan in your flex? I would play McMillan. Yeah, that's why I did that.

I don't know. I think that's probably true, but it's hard to not play a tight end like Kate Otten in the highest overrunner of the week with Baker Mayfield. I think that will probably stay there, but if I got through the week and Otten sucked again, I'd have Strange on my bench. Okay. You know what I mean? Boopity boop.

Well, and the other point to bring up is he had two five-zone carries before Pollard's exit last week, which was something significant, surprising. Pollard had already scored. Then they got down on the goal line. Spears had the opportunity to score, got stood up. They kept him out there, gave him a second carry. He rose into the heavens and scored.

Yeah, gotcha. Yeah, but Tajay Spears, huh? Jalen McMillan is my name. We talked about him a lot yesterday, so I won't belabor the point. You won me over. He has been targeted on 24% of his routes in the last two games. He scored three touchdowns. He's a third-round pick. He's got Dallas on the schedule, and they need his explosive ability in the game. I mean, they just do.

They need it at the wide receiver position. When you're talking about Sterling Shepard having involvement in the offense, it tells you everything you need to know about their need for Jalen McMillan. He's a rookie, so acclimation, route running, dealt with injury. It's a slow burn, but he's here.

Yeah, Joe Mixon is the one I'm very, very concerned about. The matchup is not good. It's Kansas City. We looked extensively at the motivation factor for Houston yesterday. They have about a 1% chance of getting the two seeds. So moving from the four where they're pretty locked to the two where Buffalo is because Buffalo would have to lose to three terrible teams. That's not going to happen.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

624.895

There is a higher chance to move to the three seed. That would be passing Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh has Baltimore this week. Houston has the opportunity if they beat Kansas City. If for some reason Mahomes sits, if they take it easy, whatever. If Houston can get by, that would be the motivation you'd want. At that point, Houston has a game with Baltimore down the stretch.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Start/Sit Courage + Hungry For More, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/18

649.796

There would be a realistic shot if – You know, if Baltimore wins this week and Houston wins this week, which means they want to win, if both of those things happen, their odds of getting that third seed go up tremendously, more within their control. And so all of this to say, like, what is the status of Joe Mixon? We've been looking into that. It was a hip drop tackle. They've come out again.

He's had 910 rushing yards. He's got an 1100 rushing yard incentive. So there is a being there for yourself aspect to it.

Starts of the week, the fantasy forecast, the parlay partay, the clown show, as I call it. And yeah, I, you know, I'm starting to feel it. I'm starting to feel the pressure of the weekend because I have, I have one big start sit decision of my own. Yeah.

Okay. Okay. Interesting clips coming out of that thing. I'm going to tune in. I've seen bits and pieces so far, but, you know, I think it talks about, like, you know, Favre and the transition and how horrible it was for Aaron Rodgers. It shows a lot of the stuff with him and Jordan Love. And it has their head coach out there talking about that relationship. I thought maybe somebody had seen it.

All right, two Saturday games this week. Oh, boy. Saturday games, Sunday games, Monday games. Here we go. Houston, 9-5. The Chiefs are 13-1. Kansas City, at home, still 3.5-point favorites. Over-under is 42. I don't think they'd be 3.5-point favorites if Vegas had any inkling that Patrick Mahomes would be missing this game.

And Buffalo is going to win their next three games. That is going to happen. They're going to end 14-3. So Kansas City plays Houston. It's a big one. Houston could put themselves in position this week to move into the three seed or at least have that opportunity.

Stroud's not giving you those games here and there. Is this game super simple from the Houston side? Is it Joe Mixon and Nico Collins and log out?

And he didn't do much with the 13, 32 yards on the ground for Pacheco. His three games since returning, running back 47, 31, 39. I would be trying really hard not to play him. I mean, the Houston defensive line is a tough one. They're a top 10 over the last six weeks. They're top five on the season. You know, Jalen McMillan in the flex for Pacheco. I'm probably going McMillan with more upside.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Starts of the Week + Week 16 Breakdown, Playoff Pressure - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/19

2045.371

Yeah, and I think his role is defined in the offense, whereas Juju and Hopkins and Hollywood and Watson and... Those guys are going to rotate through. Worthy seems to have more consistent snaps. And you're talking about him not being able to move screen game with Worthy. 11 targets last week was a high for him. He's been playing over 80% of snaps, which is an uptick for him.

I think there's a lot of other people with me because I got a lot of messages about the Brenton Strange, Kate Otten. As soon as I added Brenton Strange to the roster, we got news that he's hurt.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

So for an exciting game for the playoff picture and for the teams and the records, it's not necessarily standing out as a bunch of fantasy options beyond a lot of confidence in Nico, your confidence in Kelsey, and then Joe Mixon has to play for you because Joe Mixon's been that good. Yep. The other Saturday game is Pittsburgh-Baltimore. That's fun, too.

The Derrick Henry experience, he's only got one top 10 finish in the last five weeks, and it was number nine overall. So for a player that had, you know, one, two, three, four, five straight weeks in the early part of the year, it has kind of shifted. And, you know, you've seen Lamar. He came out the week before last and said, I've got to run more. He went out and he ran more last week.

Giants are 2-12, battling for that number one spot, Atlanta 7-7. If there was ever a time you'd want to give your rookie quarterback an opportunity, this is a good matchup. When your 8.5-point favorite's even with him, Michael Penix will get the start. The overrunner's just 42, and the dawn of the Penix era.

I think they'll score three times. I think there'll be three touchdowns on the Chicago side. So wherever your conviction is on those players, maybe it's a swift and then a couple whiteout situations, combat's not really involved. Yeah, I think this game could be pretty fun. I think that one could be more fun. You don't... You hope the weather's fine. You know Jared Goff doesn't like the weather.

That's really where you're at. This is very similar to the Levis Mason Rudolph. The Titans know Mason Rudolph is not a good quarterback. and yet Will Lovis has put them in a position where if you're getting poor quarterback play, they just are tired of the turnovers, which I don't know if that goes away with DTR.

I talked about my belief that the Jets with Aaron Rodgers, it just came out that he's getting healthier. I think you can see that on the field. He ran for 45 yards last week. The DK line here, Los Angeles minus three. The over-under is 46 and a half. That's not a big line considering the records of the teams.

244.5, which is high. Wow. But I don't mind either one. And I told you, I think of them identically, and then we get where the line is the same. So that's how I see it. I mean, either player – look, what do you have? Two quarterbacks that can have a game but don't often with two elite wide receivers for both. Adams and Wilson have been playing well, two top 12s.

I had Chase Brown, 25-plus receiving yards last week against Tennessee. He had a monster fantasy day, but 16 receiving yards. Very disappointing. I am wearing the clown wig. And, Jason, you had Jameson Williams over 3.5 receptions. He had three. He had three. You were so close. You were so very close. Mike had Devontae Adams, 60-plus receiving yards, who nearly tripled it.

Okay, I'm going Zay Flowers, 50-plus receiving yards. He's averaged 65 yards a game this year. He's been over that mark three straight games. He is the target leader for this team. He's going to accumulate enough of those plays. Fantasy-wise, he has been doing enough in the target world, but not scoring and not having that one big play.

It's the most unexpected name. I can't wait to hear it. It's the first matchup tomorrow. So I was just going to save it until tomorrow because that's what we're talking about. But I'll tell you, I believe, and I'm not proud to say this, and I'm going to tease it as long as I can. But I believe my tight end this week in the semifinals will not be K-Dot and it will not be Brenton Strange.

Oh, okay. You know it was Titans. Yeah. There it is. Look, call it a hunch. Call it an informed guess. Call it a desperation play. Everyone stared at Brenton Strange's targets last week. And that was the kind of special breakout game. What you have this week is Chigokonko, 10 targets last week, a target share of...

Over the last, I think, three or four weeks, that is equal to Calvin Ridley, Mason Rudolph taking over, who his splits are better with, and the number one matchup in all of fantasy football for tight ends. Okay. So I believe that he will be – yeah, he's been, over the last month, targeted on 23% of his routes, the same as Ridley. You did get him. I wasn't that worried.

I could have said it at the beginning. I just wanted to have fun. Look, this is where I'm at. I lost Taysom Hill. Kate Otten doesn't look like – he looks hurt. And I lost Johnny Smith, and I don't have options. So for me, I think – Well, you got rid of Johnny Smith. Yeah, when I thought I had two other guys.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Starts of the Week + Week 16 Breakdown, Playoff Pressure - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/19

4000.462

So I think that the move for me this week is going to be Chig over Britton Strange, not chasing what happened last week, but looking to the future. Nice. Look, Britton Strange is a catch the ball and fall over guy. Kate Otten is mostly a catch the ball and fall over guy. Chigakonko has David Njoku style after the catch skills.

Well, Jason, it starts the week time. And, you know, you're probably playing the guys that brought you to where you're at. But there are also decisions to be made. People with committee quarterback situations where you've been bouncing players back and forth. So I wanted to throw my... endorsement behind Jordan Love this week on Monday night in that exact Alvin Kamara game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Starts of the Week + Week 16 Breakdown, Playoff Pressure - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/19

755.495

I think it's going to be a better than average week for Jordan Love at home against New Orleans, where the Saints have struggled tremendously against quarterbacks in passing yards allowed. And, you know, Jordan Love has not been a difference maker for you this year. We've had that segment every week. Jordan Love's not been a difference maker.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Starts of the Week + Week 16 Breakdown, Playoff Pressure - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/19

Yeah, I mean, I think Jordan Love gets it done on Monday night. I think, you know, 202 with high upside. And I think the potential is there. So I think it'll be a better than average game for Jordan Love. The matchup is really good.

If you wonder for a moment and you're listening and saying, well, who wouldn't play Jaden Daniels? The answer is tons of you who are asking. The sixth most popular start-sick question, and we get thousands and thousands every week, is Jaden Daniels or Kyler Murray? It's Jaden Daniels, bad matchup. Kyler Murray, good matchup.

Starts of the Week + Week 16 Breakdown, Playoff Pressure - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/19

Projected points are similar, but Carolina gives up seven points more per week to the quarterback position than the Eagles do. It's enticing. And so there is a fear there. And for good reason. The Philadelphia defense, like if you had Brian Robinson, let me put it this way, Jason does not have Brian Robinson as the start of the week. No.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Starts of the Week + Week 16 Breakdown, Playoff Pressure - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/19

948.322

Because that kind of a player is probably not overcoming that kind of a defense to the degree that you need in the semifinal matchup. But there are Jordan Love, Jaden Daniels decisions. Kyler Murray, Jaden Daniels decisions. For sure. I mean, if Josh Allen was playing the Eagles...

Yesterday I said I think I would go Love over Daniels, but then Jason, I think when we talked through it, it persuaded me to bump Daniels a little bit ahead. And there is an emotional piece. Like who do you want to have made the mistake with? Like if you put Jaden Daniels on your bench and he has a vintage game, And you lose because you pivoted away out of kind of overanalyzing the situation.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

I think that's harder to live with. I think if you go down with your superstar, it's easier. Yeah. Jordan Love was my quarterback. Jerome Ford is my running back start of the week. He was the RB10 on nine opportunities last week. IR for Nick Chubb. He's had big plays. He had a 62-yard run. He's had some bigger ones. Last year he had three over 60 yards.

And then another one that I think is... By the way, the Joe Mixon one, I'm a little scared about how that division is broken down. I know we're going to talk about team motivations, but Joe Mixon needs 1,100 yards. He's at 9'10". But I don't know if they can change their seating that much. Kyle, are you listening in here? They've locked the division up.

Patrick Mahomes left late in the second half with a right high ankle sprain. He's undergoing additional imaging today. Andy Reid said no fracture. X-ray is negative. Next week, it's the Texans. Then it's the Steelers.

1607.454

Okay, I'm going to throw it that way. That's the smartest thing you can do. This one's a problem. This is my red alert of the week. Alvin Kamara left early with a groin injury, didn't return to the Saints game. He's considered day-to-day, but the problem here, And it's a big one. It's a Monday night football game for the Saints next week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

1626.345

Now, God willing, we find out early in the week that he's doing fine. But when you don't come back into a game, I'm worried. And the Monday night football situation, now you can go pick up Kendrick Miller. He's going to be a waiver wire pickup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

I don't know. He said he started crashing last night, and then we got the infamous 3.42 a.m. Slack message that said, consider me doubtful for tomorrow, which, you know, 3.42 a.m., you're not going to see him.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

You know, it's not every week that Lamar Jackson can go out, throw five touchdowns, and score as many fantasy points as he did, and end up third on the week. But Josh Allen and Jared Goff outperformed Lamar Jackson's five-touchdown performance. Allen absolutely going crazy.

He's going to be an MVP.

James Cook. Ty Johnson. Yeah, Ty Johnson's involved now.

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

Yeah, it's Ray Davis. It's very much – he's the – what do they call the one that leads the orchestra?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

1954.881

Yeah, is that what it is? It didn't sound that impressive of a name. The conductor. He is the conductor of the orchestra, and it doesn't matter what, you know, instrument he wants to play on any given game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

Yeah, he said he wanted peace of mind. Jared Goff in a comeback effort in the same game, just behind Josh Allen. He had 500 yards and five touchdowns.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

See, he's going to end up a top 5, 6, 7 quarterback on the year, and yet.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

1996.6

Yeah, fantasy-wise, his consistency rating on our side is D. That is 35% of the time over 20 points. And the ones that were over, they were way over. He had big games and can always do that. Lamar Jackson in three quarters, was it? Maybe less than that. Pretty much. 290 and 5, 6 for 65 on the ground. And I was thinking about this this morning. I don't know why I was thinking about it.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

It was just like a random thought that popped into my head. But the Steelers is the matchup next week. And TJ Watt. With the injury, that could be a significant change to the Steelers' defense against Lamar Jackson.

I think the word I was looking for, Brooks, thank you, was maestro. Maestro is a much more impressive title for the head of an orchestra than a conductor.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

I think conductors are called maestros.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

A distinguished conductor of classical music is a maestro.

2075.297

Because the other one, you could be, like, at the front of a train as well, right? Because you've got to – Yeah, they conduct trains. Jalen Hurts, 25 for 32, 290 and 2, one rushing touchdown, and they haven't lost in a really long time.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

It feels a little bit like just getting through Christmas is dodging. Because you're at all of these events. If you have kids, kids are, I mean, they're a problem. Yeah, they're a huge problem for disease. And, you know, I had to go to a recorder concert.

2178.542

You know, it's going to be tough because I don't think anybody is going to bench him this upcoming week at all. Against the Eagles. But you're playing Philly where he was the quarterback 24 in week 11. Philly's defense is outstanding. You're going to have Jaden Daniels McLaurin stacks that you've got to worry about.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2198.058

No, you just need to hope that that game becomes a more high-scoring affair in the division somehow. But I'm not sure it will. I think that could be tough. You talked about Baker, and we'll move on to running backs. James Conner, the running back one on the week. Jameer Gibbs, the RB2. James Cook, the RB3. Those of you that stuck with James Cook, you know, it was tough after last week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

You didn't like Montgomery's five attempts for four yards?

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2304.383

No, but he never dropped the ball right before crossing the goal line. Oh, man. That is one in his corner. Chase Brown yet again delivering a big game. Tajay Spears after Pollard left Spears. Well, early in the game, too, he got a goal line opportunity and Statue of Liberty'd himself up into the stratosphere.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

That's the thing. I see Deuces Alley laughing because it was two hours of people playing recorders. But that's a gathering of people. Did they play Hot Cross Buns ever? No. Oh, come on, man. No, that's too easy for them.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2344.697

Josh Jacobs was awesome yet again. 26 for 94. Rushing touchdown. He was kind of the whole offense in the first half. Four targets. Four for 42. He has been on fire. Five straight top ten finishes. And he kind of feels better than, like, you go into this week and, like, Derrick Henry is kind of in a lull right now in the offense. And they got Pittsburgh.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2366.33

And how do you, I mean, you got to feel really good if you have Jacobs.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2392.329

I don't want to leave it. I don't want to go bypass James Connor in a conversation there because he was 16 for 110. He had two rushing touchdowns. He caught five passes. He is so close to finishing the season, but next week is Carolina. They're the worst rushing defense in the league. And Trey Benson left injured and didn't come back. That's why I wanted to bring it up.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2414.863

Trey Benson is out with an injury. Amari DiMarcato is already out. The Cardinals are in a very Chuba and Carolina situation where there isn't backups. James Conner, this is what we said about his schedule. It was going to line up really, really well for running backs down the stretch. Carolina and then Los Angeles in the title game. Pay attention to that.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2437.856

And then like we said, Spears is going to be really relevant. Pollard might miss. I mean, he just might not be able to play.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

244.56

Then it's like you were at plays for your kids. I was at a Grinch play with my daughter. And just tons of people there. You've got to dodge illness. And Mike, obviously, unskilled. Yeah. And I didn't think you'd be here because I thought you might be sick today.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2453.007

Yeah. Anybody else at the running back position you want to talk about, Jason?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2513.613

Dowdle is trying to break his own record every week. Rashad White got into the end zone again, start of the week, 15 for 64. Bucky was great, just didn't score.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2543.018

Well, they're right there for the playoffs. Tomorrow morning?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2557.409

Yep. Wide receivers, top scorers. My really crappy backing into the Dynasty playoffs six-seed team has Devontae Adams and Mike Evans.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

I told him early in the morning that day. You're like, I don't know. I mean, you obviously made the right call.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2595.186

He had the monster game. After kind of a slow start. Nine for 198 and two. Amazing to see what he's still capable of.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2631.3

Yeah, every time it got to be third down, you knew where the ball was going and it didn't matter. Mike Evans, 9-for-1, 59-2. He was outrageous. He showed you the kind of ceiling that he can give Baker because he has an elite weapon. Amon Ross, St. Brown. It was a weird one.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2648.536

That was a weird one. This is not the way the Lions want to play football. They don't want to throw the ball 18 times to Almonra, but when you do, 14 for 193 and 1 is in the cards, and this is a big game for him. Brian Thomas, 10 for 105 and 2. Brian Thomas.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

Las Vegas next week, not scary. Then Tennessee. So Brian Thomas, strong finish. Terry McLaurin, two more touchdowns.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2727.272

Yeah, he's been outrageous. Devontae Smith and A.J. Brown both got it done against Pittsburgh.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2756.533

Malik Nabors, 10 for 82 and 1. Rashad Bateman, two touchdowns. He's always a threat down the field. CeeDee Lamb, 9 for 116 and 1. Keeps getting it done with Cooper Rush.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2773.314

And then Dobbs with two touchdowns last night on 40 yards. This one was interesting to me. Xavier Worthy with 11 targets.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

He had a pretty good performance, and it's the most receptions he ever had.

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2805.367

There'll be a lot of unique, schemed plays for Carson Wentz, and we just don't know who those will involve. Nico Collins scored twice. Thank goodness he only had four catches for 17 yards.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2859.488

Yeah, it should be. It should be good. I just – there's part of me that's terrified that the Winston benching – I just don't want that to – I was so happy to see Dorian Thompson Robinson come in and look awful and throw a pick of his own.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

288.351

I mean, you had Jonathan Taylor and the Bengals who both couldn't finish running over a goal line.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2884.551

Yeah, yeah. No, it was wild. Tight ends, Johnny Smith, Sam Laporta, Trey McBride. Brenton Strange? Brenton Strange, if you don't know who he is, that's because most people don't. He's the tight end for Jacksonville after losing Mr. Evan Ingram. Yeah, he had 11 for 73 on 12 targets. That's kind of wild. Yeah.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2907.987

Yeah, I mean, you know, the role is... It'd be a strange name to have in your lineup in semifinal week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

2922.361

We've got, you know, we had a lot of disappointing performances at the tight end position, but Pat Fryermuth got back into the end zone for a third straight week, so that was nice. We'll take a break. We'll talk duds.

We had, was it Malachi Corley for the Jets did it? Yes. Because it was going to be his first career touchdown. Hold on to the football until you're 100% sure you're in the painted area. But this, Al Borland was there for about half the day. And you two were yelling at each other. Every good thing that happened. Every bad thing. Very loud. It was entertaining. It was fun.

Running backs, we had some down weeks from the top three running backs. Derrick Henry, Saquon Barkley. You know, they were – Saquon was – I mean, these are okay games for the ordinary player, but not for these guys.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

3338.075

Yeah, and it's Pittsburgh next week, so these are guys you're playing. These are just moments of, like James Cook last week, where you were like, uh-oh, this is not great. Do I have confidence? Well, you're going to play your stars. Joe Mixon's going to be a tough one, too. 12 for 23. He did catch five passes, but it's against Kansas City next week.

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

You know, next week it's Washington, right, facing Philly. The running game for Washington, I'd be terrified. Philly gave up 14 yards to Najee and 12 to Jalen Warren. And a fumble for Najee. It was a disaster for your team.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

3452.14

Yeah, wide receiver, Cooper Cup, Gustia, Debo and Juwan Jennings on Thursday. We talked about this game. Very disappointing. And here we are with Tyreek Hill after a 20-plus point week last week, 2 for 36.

DK Metcalf is in the midst of a full disappearing act. Yeah. I mean, he's been not good, not medium, horrible. 32, 37, 41, 44, 57, and now might not have Geno and playing Minnesota.

He is super, super inexperienced as a professional quarterback, which is why you see some plays that look like he is the next Lamar Jackson player You know, a superstar, the next Cam Newton. And then there are plays that he looks absolutely awful. And just relax. Like, don't you don't need to decide what he is yet.

Maybe if you cried a little bit from the- I would cry urine. Well, that'd be gross. That'd be pretty gross. Okay. Kelsey, four for 27. Cade Otten, is he?

I knew I had a Cade Otten problem, so I went out and I got a couple of guys. Who'd you get? Zach Ertz.

3840.52

Well, it's not working. Yeah. That's going to be my downfall. Hunter Henry, just four for 25. Jake Ferguson, just two for 23. And Tucker Kraft was Tucker Kraft this week. Nice. Well, little did you know, Jason, we actually have a surprise 60-minute mailbag coming up.

No, we don't. We've got waivers and streamers tomorrow and hungry for more of the Thursday Night Preview in the mailbag. We'll be getting you ready for your semifinal matchups. And when I say you, I meant Al, not you, Jason. I'm sorry. But you do have, you got your champ, champ, champ team.

Well, we've got a lot to talk about, a lot of reactions. I will tell you, reviewing the Monday-Punday reactions, there were a lot more people upset than there were people happy with disappointing performances. We'll get into them momentarily.

I wonder what your objective reaction to Marvin Harrison would be because you, on our, I think it was our bust episode, you called this. You said, not all paths lead to greatness for Marvin Harrison in his rookie season.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

624.418

Most people thought that he was on his way to a dominant year, that there was just no way that that couldn't happen with the way the targets broke down in the offense and the Cardinals.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

633.782

And if I'd even told you ahead of time that the Cardinals would be sitting a game out of first place, you know, with a 500 record at this stage in the season, you'd probably be even more inclined to believe that Marvin Harrison had a big season.

And what I like about it is I can wear it, it looks casual, and then I can play some pickleball in those things. It's a performance jogger. It looks great. It's perfect for the low-impact workouts, or maybe I'll play some one-on-one, maybe that high-impact workout too. Or maybe you're doing some yoga or some stretching, or even sitting at the desk in the studio.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

I think Kyler sucks.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

740.768

I heard a good friend of the show, Matt Harmon, talk about Marvin Harrison and discuss him in the context of this is a bigger player that plays like a smaller player. Elite route running, you talk about what Amon Ra does well. He doesn't seem to go up and win on these routes that they're running him on The back shoulder fades, the corner fades. I've seen none of that.

Honestly, the areas, you guys might hear this out there and say, well, that's not true, and these teams have higher priorities. And you're right, except it happens a lot late in games. So when games are kind of put to bed, you saw CeeDee Lamb out there for the fourth quarter of games last year to break records for the Cowboys. I mean, that's for records, not incentives. But it's late in games.

Week 15 Studs & Duds + Jason's Demise - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/16

I mean, even in the Arizona game, they very intentionally tried to call a play to get Trey McBride his touchdown. They knew I had guaranteed it on the show. They threw him one of those old Travis Kelsey underhand pitches, and he got stood up on the one-inch line, and they didn't get it to him. But I'm telling you, that's McBride and his touchdown.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

They're going to go to fifth string at the running back position, which will probably be if you had some Keyshawn Vaughn, Patrick Taylor combination that is not attractive. I'm not actively fighting for one of those guys right now. I don't know if you guys have a different opinion.

All right, Alvin Kamara not expected to play on Monday. Season might be over for Alvin Kamara, so you're probably not getting him back next week if you make it through. It is certainly disappointing. He's been a key cog in championship runs.

Mike, we are facing each other this week. I was already an underdog, and now you will not be getting Alvin Kamara against you. I'm sorry for your loss. But guess what I got instead?

I love it. Bring the heat. We did get news this morning as well. Just one last bit here. We talked about James Conner, got the great matchup. Trey Benson's already out for Sunday's game, and Amari DiMarcato's on IR. So they are now down to two running backs on the roster, Conner and DJ Dallas.

It's going to be Mason Rudolph on the Titans side. Going to be Anthony Richardson once again at home. Tony Pollard we think could be active. We talked about his contract incentives. He's got a little ways to go to get to 1,100 yards, seven touchdowns. Tajay Spears was your hungry for more, Jason.

1363.362

And then yesterday, Mike, this will be breaking news to you, but I am shooting my shot on Chigokonko this week. What? That's going to be my tight end start. So that is over Otten. League of record? That is over Britton Strange. Wow. So this was the breaking news yesterday. One more piece of data. I brought up the fact that the Colts are who you want to play if you're a tight end.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1390.363

We talked about the targets per route run being in the same place that Ridley's at. Over the last three weeks, here are the tight ends targeted the most on a per route basis. Number one was Najoku, 31% of the time. Number two in the NFL, ahead of McBride, Britton Strange, Hunter Henry, anybody else, is Chigokonko. He's number two in the league, 29% of routes run.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1413.472

And so I am taking my shot on an athletic tight end as opposed to the plotting. You know, we got news that Britton Strange has an AC joint injury. Kate Otten is now missing two practices. We've got a concussion that maybe Zachary gets back from. Like, if you're bottom of the barrel is all I'm saying. It's going to be Chick for me. He's in my lineup. That's the way I'm riding. All right. I get it.

Enough to the point where Jason has apparently put –

153.882

Did you listen to any of the podcasts?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1533.735

Is that where the, like, NFL street cred is? Is, like, how quick can you drop the football after breaking the plane so that everyone's trying to get it close?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1559.827

For whatever reason, he hasn't had huge games against Tennessee in the past, but the matchup looks good on paper. Is there a wide receiver on the Indianapolis side that you would feel a level of confidence in this week? No. I know Alec Pierce has banged up. Maybe there's a little bit of consolidation of the 45% completion rate.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1605.822

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1706.525

It's also hard to play defense on a short field because Levis gives you a short field. The Cardinals are 7-7, taking on the 3-11 Carolina Panthers. The DraftKings Sportsbook line Arizona minus 4.5. The over-under is 47. There you go. Carolina, we got a little bit of a retread. No, that's not the word. A retracement. That's not a word. Yeah, it is.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1735.249

Yeah, I mean, I've got Mr. Stocks over there looking at me. Bryce Young just, he went backwards a little bit last week. That was the point.

1748.558

institutions such as a stock or index all right my man look at that that's impressive i'm just saying shares of bryce young the price went down a little bit last week um you know turnovers uh arizona on the road four and a half point favorites he's still a competitive nfc west cardinals right there one game behind carolina's rush defense it's awful They're giving up 173 rushing yards a game?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1778.819

That would be the most all-time. James Conner's going to be pretty good.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1785.556

Jason made him his start of the week on that basis, basically.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1816.397

It's tough to take him down. Talk to me about the other parts of the offense because I think people have been laboring with the Kyler Murray decision this week. We've seen him in there. It's Kyler or Love. It's Kyler or Darnold. It's Kyler or Goff.

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1909.401

I don't remember which one it was. The Cardinals are playing, and it's just, all of a sudden, the announcer just keeps yelling concrete.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

1916.227

No one's ever heard about that out here in Arizona.

1921.551

It's also the name Concrete. There are better nicknames. All right, on the other side, Chuba Hubbard's Russian receiving line is 90 and a half. He's also a very good play. Going right back to Chuba Hubbard after a disappointing week. And then Adam Thielen. I think Adam Thielen is a great start. Leggett, Moore, Coker, all banged up. Be careful. No, don't be careful. I'm going to play him.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1945.057

And I'm going to play him over Jacoby Myers, Jason. I made that decision.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1969.471

Yeah, I'd probably stay with Judy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

1989.304

Yeah, and Thielen's in that group over the last five weeks where it's 12.3 points a game. It's about where Shakir is. It's 0.2 ahead of Myers. It's where Tyreek's been. It's where McConkie's been. He's fine.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

He's clinking them together frequently.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2058.594

I think there's 10 targets in the cards for Thielen. I would agree with that. Whatever you're happy... If you're happy with 10 targets, he catches 75% of his passes. He's going to be fine.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

Trey McBride, he spat in the face of my touchdown guarantee after they tried to get him that little.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2096.965

They will try a little harder at the end of games to get that done.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2120.265

He is a safer start, yes.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2122.025

He's only had one target, I think, inside the 10 in the last month. So Harrison is a wide receiver 28. You need to treat him that way, not the way you drafted him.

How is this possible? Cardinals could win the division still. Minnesota's 12-2, taking on the 8-6 Seattle Seahawks. DraftKings Sportsbook line, Minnesota minus 3. Over-under is 42.5. An amazing job by Kevin O'Connell with these Vikings. They have been outstanding. The defense, so formidable. Make you basically, you know, you have to pass. You don't really get the choice to run on them.

2168.486

That's where the dilemma of Ken Walker becomes more complicated. There will be a re-injury risk. It might not be high. But he's been hurt multiple times this year. And you're coming back from injury in a terrible matchup. You know, he missed two weeks early in the season. He missed two weeks late in the season.

And we were already a little bit, Mike, you've been frustrated with the bone zone becoming the charbon zone anyways. So it does feel a little nerve-wracking. We talked about it a lot earlier. My start of the week at wide receiver was JSN, who is the guy right now and has a safe PPR floor.

I would be playing Harrison over Metcalf if I had that choice because Metcalf has had what two months of disaster.

You guys, would you roll Jawan Jennings over Metcalf?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2287.046

Jennings for sure. Jalen McMillan over DK Metcalf?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2290.767

I think it's close. I really do. I think that's name over opportunity. I think that one's close. I probably wouldn't have the guts to not see if I can get a Metcalf game.

2362.27

I'll take Darnold. I will, too. Eileen Darnold as well. Yeah, we got them ranked pretty high. The Patriots are 3-11. Powerhouse, Ramondre Stevenson-led Patriots going into Buffalo. Cool. Buffalo, 11-3 at home. They have an implied point total of 30. They are 14-point home favorites with an over-under of 46. That gives the Patriots 16 points. Away we go. Start Josh Allen. Start James Cook. Yep.

Yeah, well, you know, we'll see what happens. YouTube.com slash the fantasy footballers. I did want to take a second. We're coming to the end of the season. We've got semifinal week. We're previewing games today. We've got the fantasy face-off at the end of the show. Next week is championship week. Although, it's funny.

Ramondre is not going to be great, but... The matchup, at least, they give up 22 fantasy points a game to running backs. You hope it comes early. Yes, you do. And Hunter Henry's receiving line is 42.5. Hunter Henry is not a path to a championship to me.

2663.172

Yeah. All right, Jacksonville 3-11, the Raiders 2-12. Neither of these teams should try to win this game. The DraftKings Sportsbook line is Las Vegas minus one and a half. The over-under is 40.

270.945

Yeah. They never moved it when the NFL added a game or something? No, and so that meant that their first week of the playoffs was the week when the Ravens and everyone was on bye. Oh, my goodness. I was like, what are you doing? It's your league. I was like, what are you doing? If only.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

Brock Bowers needs 109 receiving yards to break the NFL record for a rookie tight end.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2724.457

He has not been prolific of late, even with Aiden O'Connell. He did have a number one overall finish because he can go 10 for 140, but the three other weeks surrounding it outside the top 15 at the position. So, you know, any defense that wants to try to stop this team, that would be the guy to try to cover. Brian Thomas Jr. has been awesome with Mac Jones. Mac Jones is just chucking it.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2750.184

He's got as many 20-point fantasy games as C.J. Stroud this year. Which is one. Which is one. Etienne and Bigsby, are we freaking out if we have to put them in our lineups?

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2934.818

I mean, 11 targets. It's just a matter of health. They said he's going to be out there. 11 catches on 12 targets. It's a great matchup for tight ends. So he's still an option, a desperation play. I agree. And, yeah.

It's perfect for the low-impact workouts or maybe I'll play some one-on-one, maybe that high-impact workout too.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3067.598

Yeah, yeah, and they were together for a really, really long time on coaching staffs throughout the years. We are down to the fifth string running back for San Francisco. A lot of their offense is predicated on a competent running game. I don't have the Patrick Taylor confidence that maybe – I'm not quite where Jason is, just believing that it'll be all him.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3129.954

Definitely play A-chan. His receiving line, receptions-wise, five and a half. I think Tyreek Hill will be okay in this game with the injury to Waddle. His line is also five and a half receptions, and that is exactly where Johnny Smith's line is. So five and a half for all three of those guys. Yeah, everyone gets five and a half.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

Malik Washington would be like a sneaky DFS punt play type of player with Waddle being out with no OBJ.

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3159.011

Yeah. Juwan Jennings on the other side, his line 62 and a half. Juwan Jennings, I like him this week. I think you'll be happy he's in your lineup. Kittle's in your lineup. And then Jason, where are you with Tua after the really disappointing performance last week? He's also, like there is, like he's going to play, but he's got a hip injury.

Before we talked about the 34-27 Thursday night football game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3236.863

Like an offensive performance.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3244.11

Yeah, that's going to hurt fifth-string running back Patrick Taylor a little bit or whoever else gets opportunities. On Sunday night, we get the Buccaneers, 8-6, taking on the 6-8 Dallas Cowboys. Tampa road favorites by four, over-unders 48. That is the highest of the week. We have some news here. Baker Mayfield, Laser Mayfield himself, Could be the new Kirk Cousins of primetime.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3269.646

He has lost eight straight primetime starts. Laser? What's going on?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3278.952

Phasers and lasers can't handle primetime?

This game, the Broncos started hot.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3339.049

The Buccaneers implied point total is 26. It's the highest over under the week. It's one of the reasons I like Jalen McMillan a lot. The Hutton injury is another reason. The fact that he's been on an upward trend as a young rookie who's finally catching a higher percentage of his passes, getting on the same page. I like him as a flex. Evans is in your lineup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3358.638

Rashad White's been the RB10 since week seven. He's in your lineup. Bucky Irving, if he's active, you got to play him. That's where I'm at.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

336.905

Just machine-like to begin the game?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3368.283

He's just too good. And I think if he's active.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3382.791

Mike, you are inching very close on your bold prediction show. You had said Rico Dotto would be a top 20 running back. He is RB 23 in total points, 27 in fantasy points per game. And is playing in semifinal matchups.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3399.86

So I'm facing Dowdell. You will. And it's wild when you'd much rather have him on your team than Romandre for this matchup. His career highs in rushing yardage have been 112, then he went to 131, then he went to 149. Top 10 performances in three straight weeks. It was the giant Cincinnati and Carolina, so we're going to contextualize it. Those are juicy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3426.841

Has not been catching the ball as much. No.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3453.057

No, I'm talking to Coach Mike McCarthy. There's too many Mikes. Thank you, Mike. You're welcome, Mike. Yeah. No, there's a little bit too many of us. Tampa's been number one against the run the last six weeks, so maybe that's a red flag for a big game. I don't know. But Rico Dowdle's in a lot of lineups, and it's been nice that CeeDee Lamb has been getting it done with Cooper Rush.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3473.184

Despite him being banged up.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3476.641

It seems that way. And then I think we're just staying away from the tight end position in Dallas at this point. Yeah, it's unfortunate. Yeah, it's not been good since Ferguson's returned. So I think that summarizes that one pretty good. Monday, we got the 5-9 Saints against the 10-4 Green Bay Packers, where Green Bay is... Now sitting as a 14-point home favorite.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3499.671

It's my favorite defense of the week, the Packers, at home against Spencer, Rattler, and nobody else. The over-under is 42 points. That gives the Saints the lowest of the week, 14 points on offense. I really don't know how they move the football.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3515.115

I don't think Kendrick Miller is... It's hard for Kamara to produce when the offense is this bad, and he still finds a way, generally, in the passing game. I... Kendra Miller's rushing lines at 51. You're playing a Dowdle over a Kendra Miller, right? Yeah. You're playing a Pollard even with the health concerns over a Kendra Miller?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3541.042

Let me read you literally the most popular start sits on the site. Ford or Kendra Miller Miller or Taylor Miller or Downs Miller Miller or McMillan Miller or Tracy Miller or Dowdle Miller or Pacheco Miller or Spears Miller or Brian Robinson Miller

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3561.413

He is the biggest question of the week. And I wish I could tell you I've seen enough film of Kendra Miller to have the confidence that he's going to do great things.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3595.877

Would you take the over-under on their implied total of 14.3 points? Because I'm taking the under.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3623.114

You play Kendra Miller or Josh downs. Cause there'll be a flex decision for people.

3636.643

And Madison, the Madison Kendra Miller decision?

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3643.41

Jordan loves my start of the week at the quarterback position. Jacob's been amazing. What do you do with the roulette of letdowns that you get in Green Bay receiving options? This is such a plus matchup. You know, Jaden Reed, I don't see the split right in front of me here. He was like the wide receiver seven through the first ten weeks. He's been like the wide receiver 46 since then.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3674.899

Yeah, week one was four for 138 and a touchdown. 31 points in week one and 23 in week four.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

3683.899

And that's kind of how it goes with him. Like, are you playing him? I mean, there are a lot of people with injuries. No more David Montgomery. I know Kyle's in that situation. I don't think he's a horrifically bad play, but you're... Is it Watson? Is it Dobbs? Is it Reed? What's the order?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Snatching that one right off the ground. Did you see his interview about that catch? I did not. He was very Kawhi Leonard. Romeo? They're like, talk about that catch. And then he just kind of sat there and he's just like, yeah, I just caught the ball. I was like, all right. Yeah, because we don't have to talk to everybody. That would be, yeah, no, we know that, Mike.

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

The only message we would have gotten from Mike this week would have been a small message that just said, I am dead. And then you would have let us know, and that would have been it. But you're back, and just in time.

I am going to right a wrong. I mean, not that it was a wrong. I won last week. But I'm actually going Aaron Rodgers this week. 5,600. He's at home. He's been playing great.

3943.426

Yeah, no, I paid a little bit more than you did. My running backs, Jameer Gibbs, $7,500. James Conner, $7,100. Same. Jameer Gibbs and James Conner are mine. So we are just eating up that money, sharing those running backs. Oh, I got plenty more money. Devontae Adams at 7,100 stacking with Rodgers. Marvin Harrison all the way down at 5,400 now for Arizona.

4007.956

I figured that would be the case. At 8,500. That's a lot of quiche. That is the gap between your Michael Penix and Rodgers is the gap between Chase and Adams. Right. My tight end, no surprise here, Chigokonko, 3,400. My flex, you might know him as Devon A. Chan, 7,400. Nice. And I'm going Titans defense in the upset that I picked earlier against the mistake-prone Anthony Richardson, 2,600.

This was a game where I think, you know, just the greatness of Justin Herbert was on display. Oh, my gosh. He was so good. I think it was the Darius Davis touchdown that was – it didn't make sense the way his arm angle was.

Ho, ho, ho. Well, we did just get some breaking news here, Nick Sirianni, talking about A.J. Brown's knee injury, which just popped up on the injury report Thursday. Oh, no.

And McConkie had a good game. Dude, that Gus run. The Gus bus. That was a vintage Gus Edwards run. Yeah, he was 14 for 68 and 2. Superstar Marvin Mims, Jason, led the way for Denver's passing game, 3 for 62, just further separating from that chump Troy Franklin. He had two catches of his own. Yeah, but you know what? I'm gaining. I'm gaining on you. But Cortland Sutton, five for 50.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

451.441

Everything was pedestrian in this one. If you started Sutton, which I think tons of people did. We had three or four in our office that did that. This was not... This was not the worst thing that could have ever happened. I believe in our league, he showed up about a point and a half under where they had him projected.

So all that being said, we don't have a Thursday night goose of Cortland Sutton to add to the cup and the read. It wasn't a league-winning performance. It's probably not going to define your week either direction, but that was kind of the summary of the game.

All righty. We have Saturday games this week. You get that trickle of fantasy points coming in throughout the weekend, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Patrick Mahomes off the injury report will play because, of course. This was good news, really good news, and I've seen all the practice videos as well. Joe Mixon off the injury report and will play in the game. Still a tough matchup.

All right, we have George Pickens ruled out once again. George. And Rashad Bateman is questionable, was seen in a walking boot. Probably a customized walking boot that's already been pre-made for him with an engraving, and it's like his walking boot that he can use every week if he wants to. Has he considered getting a running boot? Oh, and just leave it on. Yeah.

Yeah. RB one leg. Yeah. Tyrone Tracy. Limited on Thursday with an ankle injury. He's still a. You know, anytime you've got an offense looking as inept as the Giants, he's still going to be a little bit of a nervous start on a week-to-week basis. Cedric Tillman's still limited. You're not playing him without Winston, and so we move on.

David Najoku did not practice dealing with the hamstring. Sames. Braylon Allen, Isaiah Davis, both limited. You know, Jason made Breece all his start of the week. What? Yeah. Oh, you know what's going to happen, Mike. You know it's going to happen.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

799.338

Yeah, and we are still KDOT and still didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday with a knee injury. Monitoring that. Tony Pollard did not practice. DMP, DMP limited last week, so he could still play. Geno Smith practiced in full, and here's a big one. Kenneth Walker. The bone zone. Practiced in full. Are we back? Well, see, the bone – we might be back to Kenneth Walker playing. I know.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

But the bone zone. It's a – It's Minnesota. So that is... As bad as it gets. And then Charbonnet, he was limited with the oblique, but...

There are several situations this week, Jerome Ford, Kendra Miller, where you have an opportunity that just screams, start me, because of the amount of work that they have the potential to receive. But offenses that say... kill me because they're going to be so inept. Are you going to be happy with Kendrick Miller if he catches one pass and runs between the 20s a few times and they punt?

This is what submarine Dalvin Cook, we shared stories on the footcast of Your worst championship bad beats. And I was like, I had Dalvin Cook when he was a top five running back and he played in the fantasy championship and I needed nine points to win a title. And guess what? It wasn't Kirk Cousins. He was out with COVID. I don't remember the name of that chump that played quarterback that week.

But they were so inept that it was three and out, three and out, three and out. You don't get to run the football if your first down is a sack, and now it's second and 15, and you got an incompletion, and it's third down, you're off the field. That does happen, and those decisions are hard. I know Kendra Miller will get more into it on this show.

Jalen McMillan, what's up? How you doing? And these are all players that we're going to talk about in the matchups today, so I'm blitzing them real quick. Pickens.

Trey McBride back out there in a limited fashion. Dalton Kinkade and Keon Coleman finally going to return. All right.

1317.323

Here's the thing. In a fantasy playoff week, I think it's even more fun because there's more players with scores that are just hanging out there for Monday night. Monday night drama. I don't know. Jason, you and Al should look and see a couple things. One, you should look and see if you've got anybody in that Monday night doubleheader.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1334.454

Two, one of you guys should share your matchup to the Twittersphere because people have been asking.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1382.606

That's right. Did I say fantasy points? You sure did.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1388.107

Let's hope there's a lot more than that. This is crazy. This should be a fun one. We got a great game last week. Detroit's defense is hurting. Buffalo gave up 44 points to the Rams, who scored 12 last night. And so let's have some fantasy output in this game. You know, it's the question marks for me are like, do we get a bounce back performance from James Cook? That's one of them.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1413.015

A bounce back performance from Amon Ross St. Brown, who it's been a little bit. He's left you wanting lately. And then what do you do with the wide receiver room in a game where you have a high over under where you know the Buffalo is going to score a bunch of points? But then at all of their positions outside of Josh Allen, you really don't know what you're going to get.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

145.248

So, you know, here we are, a touchdown-less Thursday night football game, and it's not good. It's not good that if you had some of the duds in this game, you certainly hoped your opponent played players from the same game. I mean, that weren't named probably Kyron and Puka because it wasn't a big game for Kittle. Forrest Chomp, Juwan Jennings.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1499.935

Yeah, you're not going to beat Detroit unless you put points up on the board because they're just such a machine. It's why you can always trust Jameer Gibbs, who's got a DK Russian receiving line of 95.5, David Montgomery, Al Munro, and Jamison Williams. Believe it or not, one of the biggest questions this week, because if you're outside of the must-start tight end category,

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1521.443

Dalton Kincaid's returning to the equation this week. And so two of our top five questions on the website in the start sit tool are Hunter Henry or Dalton Kincaid and Pat Fryermuth or Dalton Kincaid. Knowing that Pickens is going to be out and Fryermuth has scored in two straight, Hunter Henry against Arizona.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1538.422

Do either of you have any confidence in Kincaid returning to the lineup with the over-unders?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1573.791

On the other side, Laporta, would you play him over both Henry and Fryermuth in a matchup like this?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1581.064

Okay. Are there other question marks in this game? I mean, put the three wide receivers for Buffalo in order for me. Is it Shakir, Cooper, Coleman? Is it Coleman, Shakir?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1646.243

There is a chance that if Cooper does have another big game in this one that you're talking about somebody you're now – A league winner. Yeah, you're now really – which he was last year. So you'd be really confident moving forward if he performs in this one. You know, Allen, amazing week last week. And then Jared Goff, is he streamable this week? Is he somebody that you would – For sure.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1665.638

You know, when you talk about that pivot, if Cooper got disappointed, would Goff be somebody that you'd take the shot – It was a few weeks ago that he had the five-touchdown performance, right? Yeah, four. Four-touchdown performance, yeah.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1687.394

Six straight games in a dome. Third straight game at home.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1718.638

But Gibbs could be passing. Right. Sometimes he gets his one in the passing game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1733.222

Yeah, and Jamison Williams is always one big play away. Same with Laporta. Pittsburgh's 10-3. They go to Philly.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1755.734

That's a lot of points.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1767.314

Pittsburgh's 10-3, Philly's 11-2. The DraftKings Sportsbook line, Philly minus 5.5. Over-under is 43. That's fairly low here. Battle of Pennsylvania.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1784.219

They do get the state. They've played each other only 81 other times, and Philadelphia leads the series 49-29-3.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1798.464

Oh. That was the joke. The joke was they've only played each other 81 other times.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1808.592

This is serious football. Russell, Wilson, and Jalen Hurts. The passing yards line for Hurts is 197.5. I'll take the under. Saquon's a lock, and frankly, A.J. Brown is too, but you're just a bit nervous on what he represents to your lineup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1832.388

What do you think he is on the year? Do you know the answer to that?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1838.433

Yeah, like what's his rank?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1845.891

He's 24th on the year, but I forgot he did miss some time.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1849.953

I'm going to take a look at the per game real quick. But, yeah, sorry. I didn't want to cut off what you were saying, but you're just, you know, put him out there and expect.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1858.636

A.J. Brown's at 12 in points per game. Yeah, he's 13.2 points, yeah. But that's just to put it out there, just to make this horrible for you. That's where Addison is. So Addison's at the same place that Brown is. In points per game? In points per game. And Addison's on fire right now, right? Yeah. That is the same place that JSN is at. Yeah, but Addison. That is below McLaurin.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

They're not playing for the rights to own a piece of land known as Pennsylvania.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1893.442

Right, but if you had Addison, you would go to Brown? I would. That's the question.

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1905.749

Devontae Smith, 4 for 37, did score last week. You're playing Devontae Smith or Amari Cooper in that high over-under. That's 10 points.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1916.678

Okay, so there is some hesitancy then on that secondary option. Najee sitting at RB18 on the year. You play him. Pickens almost certainly going to miss this game. There wasn't the pivot to Calvin Austin would have destroyed you last week. One catch for him. I think Van Jefferson scored.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

192.606

as they call it yeah rain pour is that not a thing rain pour yeah well heavy nah man heavy rain pour no no no down no there's a heavy downpour is that what i was looking for yeah a heavy rain pour has never been uttered before yeah downpour is what you're looking for but i we knew where you were going on that one all right you've had way worse oh thank you mike um not today

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1934.811

Mike Williams is slowly but surely becoming a little bit more of the offense, but he's only out there for 30% of snaps. Okay.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1993.946

And, you know, for what it's worth, Grant Calcaterra, who will get the start at tight end, he has played, you know, last week was three for 16 did score, right? He's played four games this year. We use 90 plus percent of snaps. Last week was one of them. He was the tight end nine, 20, 20 and 11. So, you know, it's a dart throw.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2019.168

The New England Patriots travel to Arizona to play the Cardinals. Cardinals sitting at 6-7 now. The DraftKings Sportsbook line, Arizona, minus 6 at home. The over-under is 46.5. That gives them 26 points. New England implied point total is 20. Arizona has lost, I think, three straight games. Is that right? Sounds right. Feels like eight. This is their largest.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2045.377

This is the heaviest they've been a favorite since 2021. So at home against Drake May. People hate the Patriots that much, huh? I don't think they love the Cardinals that much, so yeah. Yeah, I think you're right.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2059.429

But when you look at this matchup, you look at the Cardinals' defense, just to lay it out there, number one against quarterbacks the last six weeks, number six against wideouts, number three against tight ends. So if you're looking at the Hunter-Henry matchup, you know, the fact – I almost said Amari Hooper. That would be a new player.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2078.758

But the fact Hooper's involved, a little bit of hesitancy just because the Cardinals have played that position well. Kyler, your start of the week, Mike. Yeah. Trey McBride, touchdown guarantee. Start of my life. Touchdown guarantee this week. He's into the end zone. You might as well just count on that. James Conner, of course. And then Marvin Harrison.

Is there somebody that maybe you would have been starting... maybe you had the Cooper Cup thing happen to you and now you would pivot to Marv? Is there somebody in that category? Is it a Keenan Allen? Is it a Devontae Smith?

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2177.698

Is it an Elijah Moore where now you would, I mean, I guess you never would be playing Elijah Moore over Harrison, but is there a baseline guy that now you would try to shoot for the moon with Marv?

Romandre Stevenson does play football for the Patriots. He has seemed somewhat invisible during the year, yet is still sitting with a game missed as the RB25 on the year. So very relevant. Not a lot of confidence with Romandre this week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

Ramondre or Pacheco?

Any interest in any wideouts on the New England side?

Do you expect this to go according to plan here? Do you think Arizona will take care of business at home in this game?

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2275.509

Tampa Bay 7-6, taking on the 8-5 Los Angeles Chargers. The DraftKings Sportsbook line here, Chargers minus 2.5. The over-unders, 45.5. I do like Justin Herbert in this game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2289.135

Because I like quarterbacks against Tampa Bay. I'm with you. And I also really want to see Ladd McConkie back out there. His receiving yards line is not indicative of an injury that's going to impact him if he takes the field. It's a 71.5.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2346.559

Despite, I think, getting banged up in week seven against Arizona and being hobbling off the field at different times, he hasn't really had a game where that has translated into, like, I'm out there, you know, I'm leaving for half the game. When he's played, he's played through it. So if they have the confidence to start him, I'd have the confidence in him

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

237.657

If I told you that Jennings had nine targets and Kittle had seven targets and Isaac Grindle got all the work on the ground.

What level of terror possesses your soul at the moment around Bucky Irving's availability, and if he's available, what you would do?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2390.808

Yeah. How terrifying?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2395.145

That exercise level for Bucky?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

It would come as more of a rain pour down upon you.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2411.103

Yeah. Rashad White's my start of the week. I do have confidence there. Mike Evans, yeah, you play him. Kate Otten, it's been scary. Yes, ma'am. That's what I heard, too. Five weeks since you looked at me.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

It's been four weeks.

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2431.342

since i had confidence yeah uh he's not been inside the top 10 in four weeks last week he had one big play at the end of the game a 44 yard uh reception that made him viable but on the course of the season the chargers are the number one uh most difficult matchup for tight ends this hurts is that a full pivot do you want to pivot away from him i would prefer to pivot away from on

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

248.36

Yeah, you would have expected a great game out of that. And, you know, on the other side, it was volume and accumulation for Kyron Williams, 29 for 108. There were no touchdowns in the game. Matthew Stafford started three for 11. Both quarterbacks, you know, not good. Stafford outperformed Purdy because Purdy had a pick.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2485.751

I would try so hard not to play him.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2490.214

His last five games, Baker's pace would be 3,800 yards and 23 touchdowns. He has cooled off considerably. He really has.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2497.761

And it's not been, I mean, New York, Carolina, Las Vegas. The last three weeks are all weeks that said start, start, start, right? Yeah. And this week you're saying the matchup is not good. So, yeah, I would try to get somebody else out. I'd put Herbert out there for sure.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2546.236

Yeah, if they were playing a horrible rush defense, I would be willing to do it.

Shout out to anybody starting Stone and Sincere this week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2574.948

All right, Sunday Night Football. Is he the stone man?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2591.67

Cuge, would you flex him? Yeah, I would. Green Bay, Owls team, Sunday night football, 9-4, the Seahawks 8-5. DraftKings Sportsbook line here, Green Bay minus 2.5. The over-under is 45.5. I believe if the Packers win this ballgame, that would put the Rams at the tippy-top of the West with Seattle.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2614.833

So my preseason bold prediction of the Rams winning the division that looked as dumb as dumb can be weeks ago, somehow that division is just so dysfunctional that they might end up on top of it, even when they can't score touchdowns. Green Bay, they're in sixth. They're an NFC wildcard team. Seattle's the top of the division.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2638.524

What we've seen recently from these teams production-wise has been the running backs. Josh Jacobs, Zach Charbonnet last week. The opportunities, the touchdowns. The work has been outrageous for Jacobs. The team has never been intimidated to use him extensively. It's not necessarily been huge, profound, efficient yardage games, but when you score eight times in four weeks, that's pretty good.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

266.894

But the story was Cooper Cup, and that is the reaction that a lot of people are going to go into. I mean, three targets, no catches, and the outpouring of what do I do now? I mean, I am in that boat. Fortunately, not in League of Record or Dynasty. But in three leagues, I have Cooper Cup, and I have zero points in all three of them. And now the messages coming in are, How much do I react to this?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2664.956

That's pretty nice. Jason, you know, Al has got Josh Jacobs. You've got to imagine he's due for a regression.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2720.178

The last eight weeks, number one running back, Saquon Barkley. Number two, Josh Jacobs in points per game. And those two are kind of separated from the field. That's how good he has been. So if you've been riding that, get him in there and see if it continues.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2792.518

I think that it's, you know, when you look at – Okay, Jaden Reed or Jamar Chase. Chase.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2799.142

Way to get us started.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2804.991

Look, I'll be the one to say it. I think Jaden Reed bounces back this way. All right. This is not uncommon in the Packers' offense. This is the head coach has said, I hate defining anybody as the one in my offense. He hates the media doing that. Christian Watson, you can't chase what Christian Watson just did because he never does it twice in a row.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2821.618

He hasn't done that throughout his career other than a, what, three-game stretch with Aaron Rodgers a couple years ago. Last week, seven targets. Here's what you know about Watson. He's going to be out there almost every play. That's cool. Is it him or Jaden Reed? I don't think the other guys are even in the conversation in terms of who you'd operate or order.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2839.569

I mean, Dobbs and Wicks are just not who you'd put in order ahead of it. I'd go Reed, Watson in the same very close ranking.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2862.036

The feathers on my back. I don't know what you do with your touchdown guarantees.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2875.106

It's Friday. No, I mean, I'm just saying that I think you can go back to Reed. That's all I'm saying. It's the wide receiver 13 on the year. It's a game that they're going to need to score some points, and I think that Jaden Reed's pretty – he'll be vocal about what happened.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2909.454

And Charbonnet is sitting pretty this week. I mean, he's a top 15 guy by consensus for us.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2928.186

This should be an interesting game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2935.036

Yeah. All right, we'll take a break, and we'll come back with our doubleheader on Monday night.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

295.421

You know, do I make other changes to my lineup? You know, what's the appropriate reaction to a zero on Thursday night football? Is my season over because of one player is scoring nothing?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3006.209

The Chicago Bears, 4-9, taking on the 11-2 Minnesota Vikings. Minnesota 6.5-point home favorites. The over-under is 43.5. Minnesota barely beat the Bears in Week 12 overtime, 30-27.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3032.22

Touchdown, two-point conversion, onside kick, field goal, overtime. They never should have done any of that. They lost anyways.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3040.972

Minnesota 6-1 at home. They averaged 28 points a game at home. Sam Darnold coming off a five-touchdown performance that was delightful. Thank you, Sam. You won me a bye week. Jefferson, yep. Addison on fire. Jason, start of the week. Hawkinson, my start of the week. The signs and signals right here are play your Vikings and play all the ones you've been playing. And maybe even play Sam Darnold.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3098.708

Yeah, me too. And Darnold's two out of the last three games in the top five. His touchdown pace over the last four is 46. And when you have Addison playing at this level where you have two explosive players, like Addison, no matter what, cannot get the coverage that is going to Jefferson. Like Addison, he's in the best position possible.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3119.336

He's in the Juju Smith-Schuster when Antonio Brown was on the other side benefit. So it's awesome because he's an explosive player. He can score from distance. So, yeah, start all your Vikings. On the other side, Pray, because I don't want – look, DeAndre Swift might miss this game. If he doesn't, he should miss this game for your fantasy lineup. He does have a line, though. He's at 53 and a half.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3144.489

I think he's going to play. But that's not a player I want to play. Oh, I agree. Because the Vikings are number one against the run, and the likelihood of this game going – Would you pivot to someone like Ramondre Stevenson?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3163.303

Those Packers wideouts you just mentioned or any of these wideouts for the Bears.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3169.926

Like DJ Moore had a 100-yard game against Minnesota. His line's at 5.5 receptions.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3236.829

Yeah, and their running game is going to be potentially just not a part of the equation. And Caleb Williams has been surprisingly way better in the second half of ballgames. So if they got behind 12 touchdowns in the second half, only four in the first. The other Monday night game is Atlanta at 6-7, who have been struggling. And congrats, you get to play the Raiders.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3268.405

Yeah, this is not good. Atlanta's a four-point favorite. The over-under is 44. Mike, this is why you want two games. Yeah, I guess. So you have the Falcons where Kyle pulled out a wild stack. Kirk Cousins has stayed within the pocket 99.4% of the time on his dropbacks. That is the highest in the league. That is the second highest since 2018. He cannot move. You watch the games. He can't move.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3295.436

You think about the plays that define Sam Darnold this year when you watch him. It's – even Caleb Williams' great plays, right? It's escapability.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3304.622

Move up, move through the rush. The big play to Jefferson last week was an example by Darnold. Cousins used to be able to do that. Right now he can't, and he's thrown no touchdowns in four games. Now that streak should end.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3347.695

And I like Darnell Mooney again. Just the separation that he's getting has been very friendly when it comes to Kirk Cousins. Both of those players right now, very close in fantasy points per game. Mooney's at 11.2 on the year. London's at 12.3. So London's always the better bet for a touchdown with that size. So both of them are in play in this matchup. Kyle Pitts, if you hate yourself...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3376.799

No, don't. I mean, I will say this.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3382.106

If you did something wrong and you're afraid of Cole in the stocking and you need to pay penance, maybe you start Kyle Pitts so that you can...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3405.288

I mean, there's no situation you're going to paint. There's no brush or paint set. You cannot create me a world where I will play Kyle Pitts.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3428.913

I just had to try. He's had one or zero catches in three or four games.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3434.957

But he's 24 years old, Andy. 1.4 fantasy points, 0 and 1.9.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3443.743

If I could sub Cooper Cup out right now as my flex and instead get Kyle Pitts' score, I still wouldn't do it.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3451.988

It's a matter of principle.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3455.63

I'm going to go Bowers. Thank you for that start. Our start set tools should be exclusive to only big disparities. Please choose someone else if it's too close. London, Mooney, Bijon, yes. Log out there. Sincere McCormick on the other side. You're talking about a guy that's going to get every chance to be the only relevant, one of the only relevant players on this Raiders offense.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3483.658

Aiden O'Connell, we'll see if he's back out there, but McCormick and Bowers are in. I think Jacoby Myers is probably fine.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3504.938

That changes, though, if Ritter's your starter, right? Yes, it does.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3507.68

Yeah. Ten or more targets for Jacoby Myers in four of five weeks. It's not going to be sexy. You might not want to watch the game, but you'll probably be okay with the output there, and that'll do it for today's matchups. I don't think we have any more segments, right? I think we got one. I believe there's one.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

353.903

There were moves like a pivot to pivot type of questions of like, okay, do I sit DJ more now to play Darnell Mooney because Cup got me zero?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3538.632

This year has been very, very close. We are, what, that's 13 weeks? Because we didn't play in week one? I have five firsts, four seconds, four thirds. Jason's 4-4-5, and Mike is 4-5-4. So we have really been quite even as we head into this week, but it's my turn for the Wheel of Shame.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3577.801

Did you enter that in the Millie Maker? I didn't, and I regretted it. Yeah, I mean, I tell you, every week you got to do that. All right, spin that stupid, stupid, stupid wheel.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3643.665

I'm not happy right now. I got to go meet a kind of go meet a contractor after this. Oh, that's right. Oh, all right. I'm going to start us off. All right. Give me your, the pretty princess will, um, start Kyla Murray at quarterback. It was a late pivot this morning. I'm going $6,000 to Kyla Murray.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

3683.301

Oh, my gosh. I bet I could break that thing. Also, I'm looking at the screen. I don't think I'm a pretty princess. No, you look awful. Just believe. Hey, guys. Who do you got running back? I've got Chase Brown at 7,200 against Tennessee. I've got Rashad White at 5,800 for the Buccaneers against the Chargers.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

370.847

Is it the switch to Winston off of Baker?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3803.906

I almost did that. My tight end, I assumed that I was going to get a couple guys on the other side of this desk that were going to take the cheapie. I went with Stone Smart.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3817.034

Yeah, 2,600. I figured that would be dumb of me not to do that and match you guys. My flex, I don't know if you've heard of him, Jameer Gibbs. Jameer Gibbs is my flex for 7,500, and I ended up going with the Cardinals defense against New England at 3,000. Oh, did the waivers run?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3834.548

Oh, my gosh. We're in drafting right now.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

389.028

Yeah, I mean, when you have a game like that, you are hoping that, you know, your opponent's not going to get a goose probably, but is it, you know, is it a player that, you know, Amon Ra last week. Amon Raw was a seven-point fantasy player. Amon Raw, St. Brown, that is his lowest output of the week. Zero versus seven, that is not a defining difference in a matchup. You can overcome seven points.

I mean, his value is going down on the market right now. Sometimes this happens where teams seem to like, it's a simultaneous thing where it's like, well, maybe they're underwhelming, underperforming, but then the team is also going away from them because they're not part of the future.
