Alright guys, we made it to week, 17, right?
As we were going on Gretch goes, this is the anti sauce show.
We are going to be celebrating all the ship chasing teams that
have made it to the big money rounds.
What did you say? We're gonna go with Gretsch
syrup. We're going to call it the the
syrup. I saw syrup.
I guess. Yeah, that's one.
That's one option. Yeah.
Please please syrup. Maybe we're all gonna go for,
are over these. Do you think it's quite there?
But yeah, because you guys did so well, you're you know, not
what was the you get the running joke for best colors.
Not the FBI fantasizing over redacted and I don't know what
was what would you call it? FBI and I don't have a lot of
Baseball team. So I'm out of those.
Well, you're getting you know what the FBI is?
But yeah. Are you familiar with the FBI?
You can't tolerate be wrong. We should also welcome our
featured guest. Michael Leone back to the
program. Mike, thank you for joining us
tonight. Yeah, thanks for having me.
Let's get into some best false W.
Yeah, that's that's right. Yeah, I know what Gretchen's
referring to is? You better go when The season is
going. We can't we can't be you know
talking about our best ball teams, we have DFS to focus on,
you know, we have fairy hard starts, it decisions to focus
on. But now now is the time, this is
the time to celebrate and I will say, I got I put a thread in the
Discord today and we're going to review some of your guys is
rosters, but it was super cool to see how many of you guys had
made the finals across all of these different contests.
The puppies, BBM to war room, FB G FF PC best ball.
So Patience to you guys. You guys all had a monster year,
so I think some victory laps are in order.
And then we just let the, the gambling Gods.
Let the dice roll, you know? I don't know how many of these
were drafted on stream with us. Yeah, making terrible picks
because I think they're pretty plus EV for the for the we must
have been incredibly plus EV for The Listener.
That's right. I mean, the one team that I have
in the BBM to finals is a team. I drafted with buying for on my
Stream, which hopefully helps debunk that, you know, drafting
with streamers is fishy there, but it can go either way for
sure. Let's pull this up or sorry
Leone here. I didn't know, I didn't mean to
catch you with your screen. Share pants down.
Here is this this is the football guys or fantasy
football player's championship. Yeah, this is the FPC 125 dollar
entry, best ball finals, 12 teams, make the finals and some
friends are in the finals. Drake O'Connor, who writes
farrotto Vis has an absolute monster of a Teen Vogue.
Probably the favorite I got this bro, double stack with eight and
he was one of the few teams that I think he's the only team with
AJ Brown, and Justin Jefferson. So he's like loaded and he's
pretty unique here. So his team's loaded, my team's
pretty good. I have a huge differentiation
and that 11 teams have Mark Andrews and I'm the only team
with George kittel. There are some Andrews teams
that have like other good tie downs.
Like, Chad Schroeder made the final who just always in the
Oils. It feels like in a high-stakes
stuff but he's got Kelsey with Andrews which is interesting.
And then Sean Siegel and column Kelly.
They have their team in here as well as JT anchor running back
to him, but the FPC one's interesting because there's a
lot of unique builds with the double flax, the Titan premium,
and also, the advancing is a little less strict than
Underdog, where the playoff weeks?
3 out of 12 are advancing each week, so you have a little bit
of leeway. So, with the exception of Mark
Andrews, you actually, It a pretty good variety of players
in this final. Yeah.
Draco. In one of our deposit Kingdom
threads had posted his team, and kind of the ownership.
And yeah, a leaven of 12 teams have Mark Andrews one mr.
Michael Leone. The only non Mark Andrews team.
So is it safe to say? You are your anti sweating Mark?
Andrews this weekend? Yeah kiddo versus Andrews will
be something. It's you clearly can't plan for
this and best ball but I'm at the very least, I'm Highly
leveraged to. I'm the only deck team, the only
Swift team because I'm feeling I'm feeling good, you know, I
think my EVS in a good spot, I'm either going to come in last or
first. That's what we're going for.
Yeah. The other really nice thing that
Draco has, he's the only team with Sony Michelle and he's one
of two teams with Dalvin cook, you know, who are able to sneak
through last week without Dalvin cook playing.
He was activated today off the covid list.
So yeah, Draco as far as like top to down.
Down roster looks like a loaded guy, but that, Mark Andrews kind
of, you know, leverage for you seems pretty big who are the
Vikings play. Yeah, the interesting is
amazing, packaging, vettai football so because he has both
cook and Jefferson obviously feeling out again.
I mean that could just It needs that game to explode.
I was wondering if you had somebody on the other side, but
he doesn't know. I've got Devon, Devon day.
There's if you divide the teams, there's actually only two Cup
teams. I'm one of two Cup teams, so
I've got that going for me, that's nice.
Really surprising, you know, he had like an average game for him
last week, but it's still a really good game.
So I was pretty surprised by that one, as well.
Well, a lot of atoms teams made it but really, like after
Andrews. I think the most anyone has is
like, for, you know. So it's it is It's mixed up here
pretty nice. But yeah, draco's team the
combination of the fact that he has guys that he's the only one
who has like, AJ Brown and Justin Jefferson.
And his team is the highest projected team.
Most likely, you know, regardless of uniqueness he's
in, he's in a pretty good spot. Those wide receivers are, I've
even just having Josh Pulver there.
It's just like such a long period of needle on the end.
Like it helped wise to me and Rico have run pretty.
Pure like he lost most hurt but that's it, you know, Gabe.
Davis is going to come back off. Covid, galvan's back off covid
on my team. If I'm getting Swift back, like,
I'm pretty close to fully healthy here.
So that that goes a long way to like just having, you know, just
more darts than other teams just off getting Calvin through.
Is that's pretty sweet. I know.
I had Alvin died to Dalvin teams go down.
Actually, did not last week the week before, I have three teams
make their quarters and two of them had dallben and they Both
one was a like, a Dalvin mix in like robust our B team that like
just barely went down and I was pretty sad by that.
Whatever. I'll go ahead.
Ben. Well I was just going to say I
think this is really interesting to look at these teams in the
context of a lot of the conversations we had in the
summer. I know we've already done some
of this stuff but like the ideas of like you had to drop like
you're right and all that likely only pointing out that what
these teams don't have. A lot of guys that are out and
they're there are a lot of guys that are out, you know, from
from August drafts. Or whenever these were drafted.
So you did kind of have to be right almost everywhere at least
health-wise, right? You had to have guys that were
at least playing not necessarily studs the whole season but you
know there's there's there's an element of that and I don't
know, I just think that's interesting in terms of draft
strategy when you're thinking about it from the front that
like you kind of do need to have all your guys make it a good
chunk of the see. Also if you go down that last
team there, The seems It's because you have JT just a total
stud, but then you also have Connor Harrison fournette, kind
of like emerging as studs at different points in the season.
Yeah. Like different weeks, you have
this layering effect of those running backs.
It, I only think about the format and the fact that he has
three quarterbacks in three tight ends in something you too.
So hashtag better to be lucky than good.
I did. I was really diligent about not
missing any pics. In my FPC drafts, this was one
team, my auto Trapped In Time spot.
No way one was Ben Roethlisberger.
Who score I used in the first round of the playoffs or I would
have been eliminated. Wow the other one and I was
between and so his by weeks the same as Dax so I was kind of
pigeon-holed into taking a third quarterback and then I used Off
score in week. Two of the playoffs.
I think I would have advanced tiny waist and then one of the
twins. Anyways, my other Auto I think
we to out Advance on you anyways but week one like I don't think
I would have advanced by 10 you spend score and then Dan Arnold.
I auto-draft, it's super late. I think he might have been like
near the top of my cue anyways but he obviously helped cover a
lot of weeks. Early did you at least have like
your own rankings uploaded? Can we at least give you credit
for? I think the Arnold one.
I have, I might have had him roughly around there, but I
don't think I was gonna draft him.
The been was a pure, the band pick was, like, kind of early
to, and I was super tilted because I started this team
hourly exactly how I want like, like round 12.
Wow. Well, do you know what's also?
I mean talk about the power of an elite tight end in the FPC
scoring form it. Is there a single team here that
doesn't at didn't use a pick? Top 5 round, pick on a tight
end. Well, they all have Andrew.
They all have Andrews the on the middle.
And then this second just like is Hunter Henry or Dalton
Schultz. I mean those were picks you had
to use. What seventh eighth?
Ninth round picks on those guys? Know Schultz.
Hey guys I gotta show this is late 18 so it is free in the
main event. Well yeah, yeah, Schultz.
That was like one of the big guy was talking with Sean today
because I did the road of his overtime pay.
Outkast. And he said that was the one guy
who's kind of kicking himself on.
But like, it was like, it should have been 5050, but Darwin was
going like, I do an underdog, like Ron 12 and Schultz was
free. Basically, the whole time Hunter
Henry was another guy to same situation, almost like John who
was going consistently earlier than Hunter Henry.
But yeah, there are some teams would like loaded.
There's Pat Curran special here with Zach ertz.
There's this Chad's. Got the the Andrews Kelsey team
which is like, Cheering against Mark Andrews really like because
a lot of and see one of Andrews. So he just, you know why it's
Andrews to sucking to use Kelsey, but there's a pitch grok
Andrews team like yeah, it's it is kind of intro.
It's a, there are some teams with the mid-tier tight end, but
it's kind of like Andrews with another Elite tight end or
you'll late tight ends with Andrews in the late ones.
Hit like an ox team here. It's also again, there's a job,
you know, when you think about small sample sizes and like,
retro, A fitting, you know, win rate analysis stuff, where it's
like, you know, Andrews propelled.
All these teams, it's ironic that it wasn't even without
Lamar you know that he did this and you if you take out those
Andrews you know this Spike week and he performs more closer to
his season-long average stuff. It's really interesting to think
what these playoff finalists rosters look like he's been a
huge piece to any kind of. Yeah.
Anyway, anywhere, think about it as a puzzle.
Like He's the biggest piece of the puzzle there.
I got exert like thinking through this Roethlisberger 12th
round Auto pick. Again, do you think if you would
an auto picked by drops Burger in the 12th round and more
leagues, instead of taking so much trailer, it's it just, it
feels and 12 pounds. So, four teams through the.
The irony been is one. There's a trail and steam in the
final, but to I have three San Francisco, pass catchers.
And I don't want trade lines starting.
This is Is what race it says Leone's kid'll.
Leverage is legendary and he's got to be a little unhappy with
Lance screwing, him all season, then coming to play in the week
that Leonid up W him. Absolutely.
Yeah, it's I've had a weird Year, we're like the rookie
quarterback stuff, the rookie wide receiver stuff and the
fernette stuff like those three things are like the three at the
top of my list. It just totally buried me.
But like ended up, I don't know, somehow surviving that but most
of these teams Like here are be teams, which is kind of
interesting. And I definitely think
especially on FF PC, with the full point per reception, you
can really load up the wide receiver heavy teams and the
atp's more favorable like I got deboned around at 8 on this
team. He was pretty consistently going
there. Like top was going like
late-round for in these but yeah I think there's one robust
running back team but I think the rest are like hero are be
teams. There's like a cheese up here is
your our B Team. Wasn't it?
Like Damien Harris his first. Pick.
Let me see. Oh, not he has no, he's got
nausea. Say this keep, there's a team
with nausea JT Montgomery. That's like, by far that are be
heaviest team. There's a Mike Davis.
Mike Davis, anchor, our B team in the final.
But yeah, Mike Davis is Henry's is Henry the the Zach ertz team
and there it is. There is a Henry Aaron Jones
team so I guess that was kind of two running backs early and it
Dalvin Gibbs. So maybe there's more of a mix
than I thought actually But it's a lot of some of these teams
that did even guard be heavy, early aren't necessarily like
using those are bees, though they help them get there.
What were you asking? Pat I think Henry Muto is a the
Zach ertz team. I'll wear dragons Henry.
You do. Oh, there you go.
Look at this. I mean talk about a
friends-and-family draft. I know it is funny and Todd's
from PA who's yo, pretty active and best ball.
Twitter streets, who intentionally drafted Ben
Roethlisberger. There's actually like, for Ben
Roethlisberger teams in this because I think a lot of it so
funny. I think he helped a lot of teams
through that week that he, you know, went 14 is soda.
So how many times did you end up drafting in this, Mike Like I'd
11 teams. Okay, I have three.
Get through all three got through the first round of the
playoffs and then I lost 2 and then this team made it.
Nice first round sweep 14, right?
Yeah, this one started week. 14 and there's a bye week, which is
why I was 15 because it was such a crappy week, but we was like a
reasonably high scoring week overall other Had guys on by and
stuff. Okay.
So like that, that was like the wrinkled like JT there's only
three JT teams and that's a combination of he was on by and
week 14, right? And then he had, you know, kind
of the shitty week last week. Um, let's check out our NFC
team. While, you're while you're
there, here we go. Don't mind if I do real quick
before it but there's a lot of people say like how did that
Derrick Henry team make it? I need to try more off of PC.
I think part of the lesson of how some of the teams don't look
amazing. Is that there is like a
Reasonable amount of luck involved in this format, right?
Like what you have to be consistently in the top three.
Like you said, you don't have to be perfect necessarily, but you
do have to get all the pieces like to come together each week,
right? Like would you say that's how
kind of you obviously tracking your teams like you're getting
unexpected performances, like Ben Roethlisberger that are
helping you through a little bit?
Yeah it means that you can draft.
Worst teams is what I'm saying. No, I think the a I mean it for
the way you guys like to draft, it's definitely better draft on
FPC because you can draft a running back.
Early one and still just load up on wide receiver.
What do you mean by you? People you know exactly what I
mean by you. Yeah for yeah I mean there's
definitely an element of luck with the house like just and
just like how the scores happen to align you know.
Right. Yeah but I think the way they
outline is a really big part of it.
Okay. There's a lot of similar teams
like this. It, I mean I was just wanting to
make it but well good. Luck to Leonid Rico, Blair, and
Sean and calm and Henry. Yeah.
All right. Now, over to NFC here.
Where we've checked in on this team a few times this season,
we're heading into the final week.
What's our, our total lead right now?
84 points? 84 points for how we feeling
about that. 411 feeling great about it.
I feel it sounds, we should play the Dan Campbell Twitter, tweet
clip. That's you should he's the best
jacked up, but it was good, our team, but having Swift and I
mean, we're healthy, which is going to make it barring, like,
covid stuff happening, which you never know, having a healthy
team, to put out, it's going to be tough for us to.
I gotta, I gotta do this, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta make a
point here. You do this during the regular
season 2 and you are so afraid of blowing these massive
leagues. But it's funny because in DFS
you told me that because I like the right way about tilting or
what am I gonna jinx us? Like?
Yeah I just think it's funny. He's I think yeah that's sort of
the energy you have. I don't know what's happening.
I feel like I'm missing something that's about to jinx
us is about what it's like right now.
Yes. Why would you want to jinx us,
dude? I'm pretty conservative in DFS.
That I wasn't like the other day in our chat because you're
supposed to just be like, yeah, we got this, like everything.
Like, oh you all right about this, we take depends.
What spot you're in bed if? Yeah.
Dependent function. You gotta be all height.
We're not late swap. When you're Ben, when you first,
you gotta be stoic. You gotta be even-keeled.
Okay? You gotta be a little, so it's
just it. Plans with spot urine.
I mean, what do you think? Would you put the odds at 90% or
would you think it's even higher?
I think even higher honestly. Look at that.
I'm scared. Yeah.
And then he's gonna play Rust coming across time on Rusty,
Brown correlation. Oh Patterson digs and pits.
He's got the game stack. We're pretty hairy morons do
actually. Thank God for clarity Terry
McLaren sucking because this actually would be like a little,
like decently Posted McLaren had done anything.
These playoffs, I should have said, he's handcuffed, Ronald
Jones and Leonard, fournette there.
The thing is, it's not just an 80 point.
We, I mean, again, sorry, but it's not just any point.
Lead has any point lead over three specific teams not in one
of these like big, you know, FPC, Main Events where people
have talked about blowing, 45 50 point leads in the final week
because you have a lot of teams chasing you.
I mean, we not only would have to go under 100.
One of those three specific teams would have to go.
Well, it just one team really. There's really only one right
there. Yeah.
But it's not but I do think the odds of him going 180 and I was
going 100, aren't like that insane.
Let people know. So this isn't one of the large
field contest. This is a self-contained 5K
League. What are our payouts here Leone?
Yeah, let's just go to its 28 half thousand for first
factoring in our team. By the way, did you show her
right? Yeah, art that that's that's
I'll bring Roster gun. Like that's a big thing as it's
unlikely. Our team, totally tanked because
he'll right. But that's the thing that we
took down, we actually had a game in the regular season.
We always were like 100 points and somehow one, which was the
miracle because we would not have won best head-to-head
record, but we 110k in the regular season because we won
best record and most points. And then 28.5 K is the prize up
top? But yeah, our team is like Glee
like pretty legitimately stacked right now.
Especially if Swift is back because we're getting AJ.
Brown back. We're getting you know, Kelsey
back. I thought I'd put him back in
06, your site. Oh no, this is hooks, I hit.
So this is how you lose. Yeah.
It why don't we as Pat said we're all amped about this David
Campbell Cliff, we might as well.
Watch it. Let's play there.
All right, here we go. Yeah, I think that now we look
at it as you know, it's an opportunity for them to grow.
I think the thought is was shutting down after Green Bay is
probably what we'll do with him. So he still got room to grow and
we're not going to put him out there until he's healthy and so
he feel like he's you come to be ready to go this week and he's
been wanting to go. And so, I feel like we're at a
place where, you know, let's go and cut him loose and let's let
him continue to grow and get better.
That way we don't have loose. Is that much better for?
Yeah, I think is this the draft where we did like the alphabet
when we are recapping the draft? Because I feel a lot of alpha
coming from Dan Campbell. Yeah, did Kim.
Always looks like he's about to go on a hunting trip.
I mean, it's just this guy's. Yeah, it cries like he's mid
hunting trip. So, I'm here.
I'm just worried about us hanging on here.
Whereas, I think bands, like already planning like the rewind
television show, Bed booked a family trip to Disney World.
Yeah, refundable. So yes.
That'll be a fun one to sweat here on Sunday.
But yeah, I thought we could go through a couple of these teams
that the the ship Chasers sent over.
Maybe I'll start here with a couple of our guys in the DK.
Millie we got a million up cop. I didn't I didn't do a ton of
drafting on Draft Kings and their best ball championship.
Did you guys not really? I can't, dude.
I mean, I told you my auto-draft issue and that my best team on
FF PC. But DraftKings, I drafted one
team on slow draft and get the alerts and auto draft him.
I had a nightmare last year so I really didn't draft it all on
DraftKings. I think if you have time to fast
draft, they're like pretty strong dressed as strong as in
your ex she's probably strong in them.
Um so I guess they're actually soft drafts but I didn't because
I pretty much a just a slow drafter.
Yeah here's a here's a Chris G team.
These screenshots are all a little harder to to parse here.
We see a Mahomes we got the Higgins, we got the Kelsey and
pits combo here, we got AJ Dylan, you got to have a
diameter Brown on these teams Denzel Mims for the brand that
Brian Pringle had to have help. Helped last week here.
But a nice team. What are you guys thinking about
James Conner this weekend? I know.
He's now like truly question why I feel like a lot of these teams
have James Conner on them. Yeah, it's a tough matchup.
It's all situation after Evans had a big game as well, right?
Mike Evans, first game back, Connor was still the lead.
He was actually running some routes which when they were both
active earlier in the year. He didn't do a lot of but now,
Edmonds has a big game. Both had big games while they're
the only back. It's kind of hard to.
How are you projecting it? Leone the split.
Yeah, I mean most, I mean, the way we would have it if they're
both active is pretty much what they did when they were both
healthy at the beginning of the year.
I mean, it's boring, but would pretty much go.
Exactly how they were playing which is Connor being very, very
boom or bust, you know, just based on the touchdowns like
people forget the first two weeks of the Season.
He scored like five total fantasy points.
Like, it seemed like it was gonna be a disaster tag.
And then I'd like just absolutely boom because the
touchdowns were coming left and right.
But what about the William think is real fast.
Don't care. One more routes than that.
Yeah, I'm not really counting on him running.
I think admins is gonna run the Rouse.
I could be wrong. On that, but I think between him
not being fully healthy and just what we saw when they were both
playing together, like I probably going to be
conservative and not give Connor like more work than he had when
they were playing together. Earlier, in the year that might
have been different had. He stayed healthy and we saw it
like two weeks in a row but like that we hear and full routes was
also like Edmonds is first week back and I don't know, I'm not
putting a whole ton of stock into that one.
I would I mean I would have them.
I think it should give him a little bit of a boost.
As compared to where he was before, cause he was like a
firm, he's like firmly behind Edmonds in the passing game
previously, and I think he there's a path to him being a
head if they're both healthy do anything.
Yeah, he's been productive possible.
I bet against it but it's certainly, awesome.
Probably would too. But um, I have another team
here. This is from Kris posted this in
the Discord although he has the Josh and essential blurry.
Affliction on his screen shot here but I can parse some of it.
We do have the pero. We have Travis Kelce Higgins,
Tyler Boyd. Have that double stack seeing
that pop up a decent bit here. Singletary who I know.
Helped a lot of people last week DK.
Metcalf, and Cooper cup and then AJ, Dylan, and Javonte William.
So a pretty nice 0r B Squad here in the finals.
And also Eric H here, another Borough this team.
Of course, holy cow. Taylor cup Higgins Swift.
Oh yeah, Biggs Andrews. This team is absolutely loaded
and Sony Michelle goodness. This is a lot of time.
A lot of ir's there. I mean like Absolutely loaded.
I completely agree. But it's interesting like and
I'm seeing like a quandary aalesund stuff, right?
Like this has been there 20 rounds though, so there's a
couple extra players to play with and also guys, like Alison
get drafted a little bit more. I had someone texting me, that
Elijah more my play this week though, it's happening.
He's 50, he's fishing, it's a 50/50.
So if more plays in Swift plays all of a sudden, he's got to
healthier guys to go with like already a pretty Central core.
Yeah, this is a super fun team. Even have Devon to Smith Bateman
in there. Who is his qb2?
Where's the QB? Dude.
The disk Zach will said wow, the Dig stuff is fun because I don't
think a lot of teams probably have digs.
Yeah. That looks pretty nice here.
Let's see, my other guys here, let's pull up.
AC was the only one that had a team that made it to the big dog
finals, which I thought was cool.
Another sorry, I don't know what worry, I got eliminated from the
big dog last week, and I was sad, even with an Andrew steam,
it's that one is a is a nice top, nice prize pool in that
one, smooth payout structure there.
So, another blurry screen shot here but we do have no Andrews.
And a 0r B team. We got Edmonds.
Carter chuba Darrell Williams, who could be big this week, but
then, of course, it has cup Higgins.
Debo Pringle Kirk. I mean, that's the thing that's
crazy about these teams. It's like they have the studs
and then you have that guy like Pringle.
Who can ya get you there as that other piece?
Well it's interesting to us. What?
Kelsey and commit here? Yeah.
To get them through the last round is I mean, come on.
Dad, what did he have last week? Not a ton because Graham had the
touchdown. Yeah, our Howard and Sanders,
both kind of iffy for this weekend to Sanders is out.
Centers is out for sure. Yeah.
And Howard is like if he very
efficient. Yeah.
So gained, while could have some juice form to.
Yeah. Yeah.
And Michael Carter, I mean that it was is interesting how he was
so good on the ground. And but didn't do much in the
passing game. But you got to think as what
like to touch down underdogs to the Pats, he should get used in
the passing game. A decent bit.
Yeah. Let's see.
Who else do I. Let's check out some BBM teams
here so we had Tim star. Kindler had a couple BBM teams.
Where's your BBM TMP? Don't, I mean I already found
that over that one. You know.
Well it up. Pull it up here.
There it is. What's how many people are in
the finals, 180? Right?
Is that right? I think, yeah.
Either 160 or 180? I mean like, have you ever had
better shot at a million dollars in that?
Probably, when we build, you know, some teams this weekend of
the DK Millionaire Maker. Now it's a pretty good shot,
it's a pretty good shot. Here's this Tim team, which is
super fun with Trail and stack and Lance.
He has a Gibson anchor. Jamal Williams Singletary.
Damien Williams chuba has Kelsey and Jared Cook wide receivers,
of course, loaded a Mari Higgins.
Debo Boyd. DeVante Parker You had to get
really interesting your League's to get through these last week,
right? How big were the League's 18?
It's interesting. The multiple these teams didn't
have any that, that Kelsey, and not a very high scoring second
tight end for last week. Yeah, cook seven point nine
points, but like he Higgins had an insane score.
So right. And maybe they're just in like a
leak. Didn't have a lot of Andrews or
like bad because they're like badly constructed Universe,
teems, maybe DAC and T. I think we're the highest scores
at their Position while Borough was probably the highest score,
but maybe like second highest score was deck.
I'm stoked for this guy's about Kelsey teams through.
I mean that's yeah, it's got a nice for sure.
Stark Handler has a few teams through here.
Here's another slim running back crew.
Nick Chubb, James Conner, Melvin Gordon, rest in peace, Malcolm
Brown there. Josh Allen team to Steph digs
has deante Johnson waddle. Gabriel Davis, am on raw steel
Down and then this one does have the Marquez sorry Mark Andrews
and Zach ertz. I feel like I haven't seen a ton
of Alan digs teams in the in the BB.
Oh, this is a pretty unique team.
And he also has some coverage like, if Andrew stunk, like,
ertz could get there for him. He just needs.
You know, one of Gordon or Connor to find the Box,
basically and then Chubbies chubs a Monster.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's see, Helens.
I mean, the ceiling is there, you know, it's a nice glow.
And stacked up. Here's I love seeing all these
0, RB teams, this is another one.
A star kindler's and BBM to this is a Hertz Rogers.
AJ Dylan, Alexander Madison Darrell Williams, Gio Bernard
really high and wide receivers here, Tyree killed, Davante
Adams, T Higgins. Gallup, Debo, shout out to a
mere Smith bar, set on this team, how how bark is is out of
Troutman at tight end. You probably contributed, which
is rhaegar Who knows? Yeah, no.
Well, it is true, like I joke. But you know, I wish you know
all I think back to my Colin Johnson's and my, You Know,
Travis full gums and in wishing, I did diversify a little bit
more on those wide receiver for wide receiver fives.
I feel like I actually did that on the Jets.
Like, I actually took some Keelan Cole knowing that there
was a chance Denzel Mims was dust, but I didn't do it
everywhere. I know I was similar.
I have some Zach, Pascal and stuff like that, which worked
out, but then I have some, like, I'm overly concentrated on like,
the Ami Brown. Yeah, way too much, although he
had that big catch last week, right?
Yeah. You know, what was like the most
painful seasonal trajectory for me, my highest exposure player
in Underdog best ball. Boys, Rondell more.
And the way, the season started, it just just seemed like, it was
gonna be an absolute smash fast. And then yeah.
Yeah, my Kliff Kingsbury coach the team.
Yeah, sadness. This is, this is my team that I
have with by. And for that, we drafted on
stream there, at the end of August, just got to say, nicest
screenshot. Whoever this person is oh yeah,
I mean professional. Content creator over here.
So yeah this, what this team's fun just because we don't have
any of The Usual Suspects. No cup, no, JT no, Debo Samuel.
So pretty unique team, man. Most are what a smash.
I know you could say that about so many.
Like, but they were definitely some new year though.
We've been synapses like week 5, PC team, so he's pretty unique.
Let's go P. Let's get the Tony Pollard game.
Yeah, I well I mean II know draco's rooting for Dalvin cook
I was I was kind of hoping he would be out another week here
with a bronze here on the deck here that I wouldn't with the
Arizona Dallas stack, okay, you got one through.
Well, this is the thing, I mean you ought to talk about our
correlation. So we got the Dallas stack with
the Connor Rondell bring back. We got the Dallas double stack,
although, did we are, sorry, that's the one I was just
talking about. We have the Atlanta little mini
here with Gabe. If Davis of course Devante
Madison. The thing though when I was
looking at a lot of the other 0r B Teams, a lot of them only have
like two really good bets at running back.
Like I feel like between Michelle Penny Pollard and
Connor like there's there's like four options there.
Have guys who could get you 15 plus points.
Depending a pic just took a while.
Yeah, sure did it, sure did. Um, let's see here, let's check
out a few other. What remind me what the War Room
contest was That was the water early, right?
Was that the pre-draft one? It must have been I'm sure Chris
and Cron's can let us know in the chat.
Yeah I think it was regular roster pre-draft, pre NFL draft
Chris, maxed out BBM. I believe in May so the muscle a
girlie. Yeah nothing gives me more joy
than TC Chris about getting to draft your March.
Ace in the late fifties early sixties that he was all back
Stout of after taking of of the fourth all year.
Yes pre-draft here interesting I always liked looking at Chris's
teams here, jobber Omak, Jones Eckler, Javonte Williams gain.
Well chuba he does have kid'll in parm at tight end.
Keenan T, Tyler boy, Debo, Mike Williams, Mike Williams has to
be a fairly unique died in the finals, for a lot of these
teams, but he does have that premium jobber.
Oh double! Stack that got him there.
Probably not a lot of people pre-draft that were willing to
go for running backs and take three rookies.
I think that was pretty ballsy. And yeah, I love it man, I love
it. What?
For running back, the Kenneth gain.
Well, and who's out Juba? Shuba and Javonte.
Wow. So just Eckler and Javonte just
getting it through. Yeah, true bad.
Some a couple, a couple can gain water.
He had a couple of games. Yeah, I guess that's true.
They sprinkled in it, it's funny because bonds oh go ahead.
No, I've got a side tangent. Sorry I was just going to Czech
crowns. This war room team here real
quick. The fact he got through with
Zach Wilson in Justin fields at Quarterback like five steps,
five steps now, but he does have Andrews.
He has a really nice running back group here with Damien
Harris. Nick Chubb, naheem Hines, Austin
Eckler, and then has Debo cup and Terry McLaren and I guess it
does go to show you didn't need quite as strong of rosters
drafting this early. One of you.
I mean, he's got cup Andrews Eckler.
I mean, he's got some Debo, he stacked a lot of really key
pieces but it's fascinating because, because like you said,
like, Wilson was out too. Yeah, he'll didn't start a lot.
Did he ever? We were didn't get any
quarterback points. I feel like probably in a with
field kind of being in and out there.
Had to have been some weeks in there with Wilson wasn't Miss.
What? Like three or four weeks like
what Mike White was playing and stuff?
Well yeah that's that he missed. Mike White plate because Josh
Johnson, there's a mic White's good game.
My quite got her Josh Johnson, there's the Joe Flacco game.
Yeah and Zach Wilson got hurt in a game when my quite came in so
three and a half games. I think you miss it.
Did feel different have for good games at wrote like there that
hadn't been at least one week you were, there was like, no QB
points that is out of while. I mean Pat, I don't even know if
we got to chat. Like, how were you fist-pumping
when Zach Wilson ripped off that big run last week?
Not really, I mean, it's kind of fun.
It was fun, but I mean, like, Wilson is Wilson, hasn't been
positive and completion. Percentage over expected in a
single week, this this season and like that, I think the only
quarterbacks to do. That are like Trevor Simeon,
taysom Hill, like one other. Oh, Mike, Glennon.
Those are the only other quarterbacks haven't and they've
only played like four games or less and he's played like 12
games. So it's like just an
embarrassing. He's just having an embarrassing
season for this deep. Put this, this T.
Bad zeros. It, week dead, from all three of
these quarterbacks. Well, the thing is, when Cooper
cup is outscoring the quarterbacks by like Five Points
of gave. It's like Cooper cup.
What's your quarterback? Yeah, Cooper comforter
quarterback in. Yeah and Mark Andrews is your
quarterback, some weeks and Zack wasn't your tight end and you're
funny. It does go to show, you know, if
you're willing to lock up your money, you know, super early.
And you understand structural drafting like you, you don't
have to be perfect to build these good teams.
Yeah. So what this must have been what
running back running back and then not take another running
back for a little while like a where were steaming Harris going
at this time? I think pretty late, he was
going pretty late to start their offseason.
Yeah. What was your tangent Leone and
then we'll go back to my tangent was because just because you're
talking about the preseason teams was bad and I drafted like
the absolute nut, rookie sophomore team.
And of course it got eliminated week 15 and we had the borough
double stack and I was just tilting, but we had Borough.
JT, nausea, Harris, T, Hagen's Jamar, Chase Jalen waddle
Bateman like holy shit, just like it.
An absolute and we had Dobbins on that team to, it was just
like, just an end it but it got eliminated the week before
Borough went off. When you know, I think since he
did absolutely nothing that week before.
Oh Yeah. Boy.
And had the only touchdown both both.
So, here we go. This is Silas sent me one.
He was the only one who sent me one from the rookies and
sophomores. He has a jobber 02t.
Higgins waddle. It got cut off here, but Antonio
Gibson, Javonte Williams, AJ, Dylan James Robinson at running
back. Jefferson Higgins.
Waddle. I think the other I don't think
there was any one super notable. There's like Wes Watkins in
someone else but that was a, that was a fun tournament.
Yeah, it was. Yeah.
What would I didn't? They just launched.
Didn't they launched one for next or next year?
Yeah, I love it. I don't have the brain power for
it yet. No.
I mean yeah. Let's check out Roman sophomores
for next year's already. Launched he?
Yeah, no I think it's like a ticket is office hours.
Just Juniors. That's what it is.
Sophomore classes that are. Yeah, they could classes so you
might as well keep running it. They are good classes.
There's this advocates in a sophomore, junior?
Yeah, super sick.
Let's check. Some of these puppy teams.
Let's get. We got a, see.
We got essential. We got I'm interesting these
puppy teams after leadership chasing me for the, for the
viewers. Who don't know.
Um, I'm because there's three different puppies.
I'm not sure if they all have different sized groups.
If you guys are in the chat, let me know.
Oh no, this is celebrity. Seems look like.
See you guys ruined. The ATP ship chasing ruined, the
ADP of the puppy. So I'm interested to see these
teams with one man. I am.
You guys are killing me with these screenshots.
This one's real bad. Absolutely, really bad.
This is like. Can you zoom in makes it worse?
Aaron Rodgers is a second quarterback, Aaron Rodgers
Davante Adams. It's a down cooked Avanti Avanti
Williams. Yeah yes I don't know who the
other running backs are. All right, so it's the wide
receivers are Davante Adams. Cooper cup T Higgins, Devo,
Samuel Rondell more Terrace, Marshall Cristian, Kirk Amari
Rogers, KJ, kammler mvs. Are you leaving this trying to
figure out if that was completely, forgot, existed.
I pulled up the version in the Discord that I could read
better. Sorry guys.
The these screenshots are rough, but that looks like a fun team.
AC essential actually sent me. It looks like a decent
screenshot. Our essential.
Where were these screenshots all year?
Yeah, he got better. He got better Patrick Mahomes.
Derek, Carr Javonte Williams, Damien Harris.
Darrell Henderson rest in peace Hines.
Chuba Devante Booker trickier. Are both 0 B, right?
Yeah. Yeah, and then sick wide
receivers Hill. Digs Amari Debo waddle Hardman
John Brown and 22 at well and then Mark Andrews in Jared Cook
there. This is puppy one.
So this was like July or something Gina yeah that that
wrapped what like into July. Yeah.
You definitely see where diversification though.
Helps where? I mean, the one of the primary
reasons is teams through is the health of those top six wide
receivers. Yeah.
Mmm, guys. Part of part of this test is, I
know a lot of you guys didn't see an eye doctor this year and
so we're actually testing your vision.
I need to make an appointment. J XP is going on.
Ready to start mode, dude, I know the dark mode.
Where arms a jobber. Oh Fields.
Lauren, steam geogebra. Want a Chase Antonio Gibson.
Damien Williams Hunter ran Rotary kill T Higgins, Kubrick
up Darnell Mooney, Paris Campbell Slayton Hilton.
George Kendall, Hunter Henry. I was going to ask you guys, who
is the name that is popping up the most on these rosters?
That was actually the most useless.
I feel like Damien Williams has been on a ton of these teams.
Interesting. Yeah, probably day me and I
can't think of anybody else. I am a lot of fields.
I'm seeing a lot of fields. Yeah.
Not exactly. Yeah, I am Pat kind of had made
this no in. I don't know if you made it on
streem Pat or just more talking and Discord about the rookie
quarterback stuff and how like obviously we went a little too
far at a certain point where the reward wasn't worth the risk,
but the whole draft is if you're right thing, I think like that's
like you want to channel that but like now, Going through a
whole year where I drafted. Like as heavy as I have any
other year, I do start to see like some teams where like I
could have been a little more like robust, you know, like a
little could have built in a little bit more stability where
I didn't, you know, that's a need to push that edge 100%.
But I had a question about the rookie thing.
What? What percentile outcome is
Lawrence, sucking Wilson, sucking.
We knew they were going to play Jones.
We didn't know was really gonna play for sure.
So, you know, there was outcomes or he didn't even play, I guess
Fields playing, but not being great, and Lance, not really
plank. Like because what part of it was
that Matt Jones being perfectly and then Mac Jones.
Something I have just the one guy we don't understand at.
All right. Yeah.
And fuck back. Jose and then he's the only guy
you, what? Like, I feel like that was I
feel like it was better than 50%.
That one of these rookies for enemy.
Oh yeah, there and the fact that we're still seeing fields on
some of these teams has. I think it pretty decent
indication. We weren't that far off.
Like he didn't have a good year at all, but it still helped in
some spot. Yeah.
Because the pro like I could have done more like teams like
this like Burrows, a double-digit pick and then like
two of those like, Couldn't ya three quarterback team, that's,
that's what I was saying. I wish I had done more more
Elite quarterback with the rookie or if I'm doing the
rookie throw on the third quarter back, a little bit more,
kind of like, you know, what happened with Leone's team,
where Jared Goff and Ben Roethlisberger, you need one
score out of them. It's like, you know, if are we
trying to hit home runs with every single pick, because
sometimes if you have home, runs Elsewhere on your roster, you're
going to need those home run somewhere.
But like, you have the Cooper cup in the In the DeBell, then
what you really need is singles at the right times from other
other parts of your roster. So I think I'm just going to be
thinking through that a little bit more.
Like, you know, it's okay to take a single sometimes.
Yeah, when you see the way the score is a line like for those
things where I hate to say like you do but like you kind of need
to experience it and go through it and like you start to get a
little, you know, you don't want to Give into just the Ruby to
results-oriented, but you do kind of see where it's like,
okay, like they got I had, you know, this you know, covered
here. Like you don't need to push the
edges, I guess, like, 100% like, you're better pushing off the
edges 100% than 0% and the, and when I was referencing going too
far with the rookie quarterbacks, like Lance's
Lansing Fields. ATP.
Really got to a point where, like we probably should have
stopped drafting them. Yeah, and we were just like nah
the internet and And then we were only going to.
So would you kind of had to because of the progress of the
cost? Yeah, that's exactly what I was
just gonna say that was, that's my big takeaway with those whose
like we were taking on risk from guys where you would want them
part of like super late, 3qb builds.
And we were playing them as like locked and loaded, you know,
mid-tier QB like magic Pat, you you really liked in that range
where they got to and I didn't want.
To take it. During some of our main event,
drafts was Jalen hurts and hurts, is basically the exact
same profile of what we were hoping for from field.
Yeah, that's except he was clearly getting Stephanie going
to start. Yeah, that's what I liked him.
Yeah. Because he's like, we already
got the start. So it's like you're taking.
It seems like a lower upside pick in a way because you're,
you know, you can't dream about him as much but I don't know.
I mean, in some ways it's a higher upside pick because like
he's definitely going to start and you can use all those weeks.
So, I also like to your point about hitting singles, to like
it's some of the boring running backs and like rounds 10 through
14, we're like pretty useful this year as far as like, all
Ben Gordon was going on a leaked online game.
Yeah. Like Singletary, a little bit.
Like yeah, I had singled. He was all over Singletary.
Like just that like the worst leak that guard.
I write both those guys way below ATP.
Like yeah, for that was a week really far because you I mean,
he catch that, he caught, It passes and he was cheap, that's
why I'm like what he was a cheaper.
That's it would be fun to Victory lap, taking for that the
year. He was good too.
If we, you know, we faded in the year sucked and then take him
when he's good. That was, that was a just like
strategically. That was a big leak but like,
guys that you know, are going to play like, Jack did a study for
us like, like having some of those running backs mixed in.
Like, you don't want your whole five running backs to be dust
balls, just because they're playing, but yeah, when the cost
comes down enough because everyone's chasing upside, I
think like, You're having those types of guys helps instead of
like a team of like, you know, for peer handcuffs or something
I got on jessjacobs actually late because he was falling into
like the sixth. The yeah.
But that was it. Yeah.
And you got ridiculed for that like if you took Jacobs and
round six but like that that like that's another one that's
just like, fine, really does exact same profile that was
going in the second round the year before and actually was
this guy. I'll give Daniel racks, I don't
know how to pronounce his name but he likely Really changed my
mind on Twitter which is never happened in the history of the
app. I do congratulations to you.
Daniel he did. He was like he was just like I
think he was we started going back for and I think he was
damning me about like, why? Like he's getting touches like
he's so cheap. Like the opportunity cost is
basically nothing and I was like, you're right.
I should drafted. Yeah it what the one thing that
it to me like with these guys we fall in love with or that were
not as in to say, like the boring Melvin Gordon types is
you can let the market dictate it for you.
You know, like when trillions is screaming up two rounds past
where he was going, then it's like I'm done.
Like the risk is not baked in or if it's like Melvin Gordon's
falling two rounds pass ATP, I'm taking the guy like, you know,
like just letting the market dictate that exposure for you.
I think. Can can really help.
Also like over the course of the, the months, right?
Like I wasn't taking much to March a surly on and then once
Jamar Chase, but like feeling gross about not having him and
then once he fell to the fifth like I would prefer to obviously
to take him in the sixth if I you know, but I knew that would
never happen. So I just started hammering him
in the fifth you know because the year before whatever we were
able to get seal a man like the 6th and 7th but like
understanding that you know. It's okay.
Maybe to sit out a guy when he's super expensive and then just
you just Hammer them later or vice versa you know.
I wasn't touching guys like Josh Jacobs even miles Sanders you
know but if then one of them Falls like loading up a little
bit at that point I think that's going to be a big Trend in 20 21
or 22 as well. I mentioned that in a couple
past weeks, we've been talk about ATP.
I think there's going to be a lot of movement next year just
based on the way that this year played out, everyone had their
moment in the Sun. So Pete that's going to be a You
know, the point you just made about like letting the market
dictated and everything over time.
Like that's, yeah, I don't know. I think that's going to be a big
one. If you were to have either that
you're going to have opportunities is what I'm trying
to say. We have to get our Kyle pits
exposure early already. See a yeah, for sure.
And I also got good. I was just going to say, like
recency bias and stuff like that, that's never going away.
Like, even drafting these playoff baseball teams like as
the probability, Ladies change for these teams where it's like,
Chargers were not getting drafted at all.
They have that big win, then everyone starts drafting them,
then they lose to the Texans and now people are drafting them as
much. Like the market is always going
to overreact to those those spikes.
Yeah, although like, sometimes I feel like the market is on to
stuff more than like the mature market.
Like JT was never cheaper than right before the season.
You know, he was very expensive Following last year.
Because we we all had the talent in our minds and then you know
that was one, that's like it's tough to project that he's just
going to be like the next LT. The guy to test that theory is
going to be e. TN Robinson, Achilles new coach
potential Lawrence second year stuff, I think by August, he's
probably a fifth-round pick at least, but I think there's a
chance. He's like, you are very good, be
an Ethernet didn't play at all, but he might be a fifth-round
pick in January because people are going to think about the
Robinson stuff and everything. So, it'll be interesting to test
that on. Well, just to see how the market
starts on him early. I think, I think the JT this
year, could be Javonte in the sense of, like, sure, if Melvin
Gordon comes back, or if they bring in someone else, like, you
know, whatever running back kind of, you know, floats around,
let's say Ronald Jones, you know, someone else goes there as
a free agent and they're like, you have to project some rushing
work to the other guy. Then I think his ATP might slip
but you like but here it, but the sharper thing might just be
to be like this guy looks like an emerging star.
I'm taking him in whatever he's going to start in.
Let's say like what do you think like the like second third round
javante. Yeah that rotten to at least I
think Pete. I don't think he's going under
IV. Remember our what a one cover
today. After that Monday Night
Football, when we don't know we don't know.
It is the other big shot was making the case for top five.
It's okay. Alright, he moves the market,
some time. Times.
I don't know I think I think he's probably a late first round
it we talked about in like Gibson as well after yeah.
Yeah yeah. That's probably tailor to your
point was the first round of for most of the offseason, right?
And so weekly calendars, almost like little different.
But also what's that Landing? I think Taylor's efficiency
which was just on a whole nother level his Prospect.
Profile was not a little bit of a different level, he's
offensive line, we knew they would want to run the ball and
like that. But he was competing with, we're
just not going to take work, but it's more like Gibson.
But I'm not saying Devon sees the next day.
T, in terms of production I'm saying, right?
I think the market now might be sharper on JT than the market in
August. Yeah, no.
I got you. I mean Javonte.
Wait, yeah. Almost like, like, we'd like the
market was like, got like, almost a little too soft on JT
even as like back out of round. I don't know.
It's easy to say that in hindsight because he crushed but
yeah, little bit. So see how it plays out.
Um, gotta shout out our guy Willis's team here, this is a
super fun team, like very thin 0r B team was Singletary.
Connor, AJ, Dylan chuba and Hines he has of course, the Ben
Roethlisberger with you tomorrow.
He has that void Higgins. That you need it.
And then what's really unique here?
Is he has a wall or Kelsey team? Wow.
So if he could just happen to get you know Waller back, I
think you just hit covid, though, didn't he?
Did he today. Yeah yeah so I think he's Auto
out unfortunately yeah is he vaccinated he's not Auto out of?
He was activated. I thought the 5D I thought it
was five days. No matter what now that you can
test out. You can test OK action a.
So on vaccines five days no matter what backstages, you
could test out. Yeah.
So I think our fears are not all ever.
You guys are all coming out of the woodwork in the Discord.
Now, with all of your teams here.
That I from the thread. So we'll grab a couple more of
these from the ship chasing Discord here.
We have shooby-dooby here in the I believe this is the puppy 3.
So this is one later in the year and of course you do have the
Jonathan Taylor anchor. There this is this was a thing.
I've been talking about a lot this year with just not having
the past catching backs to buoy you as much.
You know a Gio Bernard James White Tevin Coleman Sivan
Achmed. I mean every weeks you took
zeros Rvt. Yeah.
Wow. I mean no question.
Week might be one of them. Yeah, seven is Tavern flag right
now Salmon's playing. Yeah, yeah, tell him swine.
Um, let's see here, we have our friend.
I are black. This is in the, the final 82 of
the NFL best ball. 300K, flea-flicker.
I guess he's in the finals of this one with Tuttle.
Haven't seen a lot of Lamar Jackson team that could Maybe
that could be fun. Cool, but with Bateman baby
banana Andrews there and of course he really did it with
latavius he knew it's also got Stafford.
So he's got he's got me G Baltimore.
Look at all the lar at bolt on that.
Oh, wow! Yeah, you love that stack.
Look at that, that's great. I mean he must have stack that
up intentionally. That's that's, that's beautiful.
That is really nice. Wow, that's so nice.
All right, who else do we got here?
This was Wu-Tang Killer Bees here in Basketball Mania to.
We have another Dalvin, cook anchor team here with AJ Dylan
Singletary. We have hurts been carrying this
team with Trevor Lawrence. The only other quarterback.
Of course, it does have Andrews AJ Brown Kenan, who should be
pretty unique. T, Higgins, Debo Jacobian a nice
spot this week could be a differentiator Cordarrelle
Patterson. So very nice to see pad.
Yeah. What is your guys?
This take on. See Pat heading into this
weekend because he's kind of really cooled off the well been
probably. I didn't read stealing signals
yet this week, but it seems like they've been just not using it
in the passing game as much. And that's kind of, kind of just
always hurts the for stealing combination.
Yeah. Yeah.
Somebody might, this court asked me about.
It's even shared a quote that I think maybe it was from, from
you guys Pat from a bore, but that are the twins list.
Talk about kind of shutting down essentially essentially like
limiting his workload because he's a vet and different guys
are together places at this point of the year and he's
basically like, can we can be bench Patterson?
I mean my response was like it. Yeah, I think I mean I think
without the receiving there's not the same ceiling quite he
still has the obviously obvious touched on upside but then the
floors I was been a little risky with the ways used and even
scoring last week, he didn't put up a big number.
So I just think, you know, you have the low floor, you don't
have quite as much ceiling without the And it's like if you
have had an options, like you can bad match up to Buffalo to
me, like, 52,000 ever. Even looked at a dude, I just
finished dealing signals for the year last weekend.
I've checked out. How about I put the Lego set for
4 hours a day with I6? I love it.
That's awesome. What's that was it?
It was the roller coaster set, didn't know they made roller
coasters. There's that's cool.
You can park. It was very cool.
That's awesome. And then it's like a functional
little whether they give you a little cars and stuff.
If you build a little cart, You put the wheels on the bottom and
it actually like skirts around. It's not a big track but yeah,
it's cool. Yeah, it's cool.
Yeah, team Lyle, one more here from our guy.
Frank, Duffy we have a Josh Allen to a team haven't seen
much to, uh, Taylor AJ Dylan, Jamaal Williams.
There's my Damien Williams who Justin Jackson on their
propelling him, who to the finals.
That's fun, Diggs Higgins Samuel, Mike dub, Rondell
Parker, Kirk van, Jefferson Gretch loves to see it.
George kiddo and cold commit. Imagine taking that Hardline
existed. It's just a random noted guys
just constantly hit for long, touchdowns in your, in your zero
percent chance he would ever do anything.
I believe I said that he was gonna max out 500, 600 yards
with sort of my, my real life. And I think he's well, past that
at this point I love graduate you say, imagine taking that
heart of a stance at a playroom, like, That's basically all we
did. I say the Justin Jackson was fun
to see because I did that thing where I was, like, I would fall
in love with a writer, like a scratch-off lottery ticket
running back for two weeks and then move on Jackson.
Was that guy for like two weeks for me?
Yeah, Pat like you get the exposure.
Yeah. With the ADP a little bit and
then get out, get up, move on to the next one and be Diversified
I'm gonna do it again, I'm gonna force my so I'm gonna like set a
timer. Like find a new guy, find a new
guy because like The hard part was like, I sometimes wouldn't
have a guy and then I'd end up taking some Old Flames and then
your closure, then you have a lot of our Mantra.
Yeah. Yeah.
A pump and dump scheme for everyone's like, hey, I just got
tied jobs, like I moved onto reminder egg here.
Let's see there was a kid here. From Josh Jenkins.
This is a puppy three-team. Aaron Rodgers, Matt Ryan.
Who we finally have a row Joe Road?
You, let's go. Let's go Row.
Joe Gus Edwards, rusted piece Singletary.
Alexander Madison James, White recipes.
I mean, this is down to Row. Joe and say, that's not hyper.
Oh, Joe, that's just pure Zero running back.
Is it that hyper Rocha? No, hyper roads.
Hyper Rocha cyber fragile, but you take.
But you wait for your second or third running back to be Row
Joe. So it's usually all wow.
You running, you go to running backs.
Really, then Raja. This is Anchor.
Roadshow in corrosive. This is how awesome would it be
if Row Joe ends up? Like, when it needs big
tournaments, I could take it or leave it.
Well did we could? You know, I could take it.
Saw the haters sweet, right? Yeah, I Pat had the funniest
reply, I saw it right away. Like, I was - 1800 or a tweet
this or something. When would Hayden put eruption
spot here, he meant. What was happening in Pat's
pants? He didn't is very good at
predicting, the future could not spot for him.
I mean, like, it's the true not spot, it's like, it couldn't be
better. Like, you know, maybe take it's
like leper 80 kind of rest that arm a bit heading into the
playoffs but it into Rojo's belly about 30 times.
This we almost did last week, so The rest of this team is Adams,
man Ridley that really have not seen a Ridley team, get through
locket cup O'Dell. Wow, it's even though Gus Edward
Lee James White Calvin Ridley on a 0 or B team that lost to
running backs for the whole year.
It's and Roadshow, didn't do. What is this in?
What final is this puppy, three puppies.
But it has Adams Cup in Debo and then marketing engine staring at
tight end. I mean this is one of the ones
we screwed up the ATP in for sure.
I don't know. He got lock it in cup and 3/4.
That's right. That's nice.
Yeah, it's probably have to turn
though, so I guess that is kind of early that is actually pretty
early. Yeah.
If it's that, you're right. Yeah.
Well, I mean, of all these teams we looked at.
I mean, if we can, it sounds like we have pretty decent shots
of a shift. Chaser taken down one of these
tournaments, I think, which is pretty cool.
All right. What are you doing over there?
Lie on my lights are all fucked up.
There's like that you're trying to give me a high-five.
This seems fine. Yeah I thought I thought this
was like a celebration of the ship chasing C60 job guys.
Scratch hands in everybody shares.
You know Then you'll have. Oh, yeah.
Historical anomalies can we get Gretsch to grow back his
mustache? So he can do his McCaskey,
impression and fire Nagy and Pace.
It a couple weeks, I will work on.
Yes, yes, please take me a couple weeks and just shave
before Christmas, but that's such a good suggestion.
Gretch, if you record a little thing as you firing him, I'll
put it together as a clip. It release the Chicago ownership
group legs, Any any other wishlist items?
You guys have a heading here into a week 17.
It does truly feel surreal to have the matchups that I had,
like, circled in a spreadsheet. In was referencing all summer
for my week, 17 game stacks. And now those matchups are here.
I just got to take down this FPC League.
That's that's the 100K up top for the FPC know.
I don't million but congrats the limits and by the way took down
250k with certain running back that we we like to draft around
here. Whoo.
Yeah. So he had what Justice Jackson
Rex Burkhead and oh Joe. That was another guy.
Yeah bro, chose on the team. I wonder.
Trying to make money guy. He wants to live.
It is agnostic. Yeah.
I feel like Maybe some ants and roaches takes at some point, but
maybe that's wrong. So
you know, silver had a tweet today said Unity 2024 because he
was quote tweeting the the clip Adam had from the solo pod about
a guy asking it came. I'm up into his gym because he
was wearing an established, the Run shirt, you know?
And he unironically was like, yeah I agree teams need to
establish the run more. It he asked Adam how he was
supposed to handle it and Adam was saying this is a chance to
bridge The Divide you know you let two people agree.
That establishing the road is good so you know 2022 is all
about Unity, I guess. Should we should we end on on
that note here or any, anything else you guys want to get off
your chest? Here is just let the Good Vibes,
right? Us into a week 17.
What are what are we doing with our DFS million-dollar entries?
Are we going all in on our remaining baseball teams or we
had seen them? Oh, hedging, rdfs teams with
our. So, what would that be for you
bike? Would that be a Mark Andrews
team? Yeah.
They have to be marketers for sure.
No kid'll fading company. That's a pretty fun game to
stack up. So yeah, how do you Mike, how do
you rank? I don't know if e TR has your GP
scores game scores out yet? But how do you rank?
Don't even have our projections out?
Yep. We're it's covid covid.
It's puts us behind a day or two.
What? It's your nickel stuff is like
oh man. Those games for as far as, like,
DFS fantasy, shootout, appeal because there's like, four or
five legit ones that could pop off.
I think like Dallas, Arizona might be the best just because
the pace is going to be so fast where like if they're able to be
efficient it could get real naughty, you know, just because
they're going to run at such a fast pace that it could get
super crazy. We agree.
They Minnesota's that on the Slate because that's a pretty
good one just because the concentration.
Cincinnati Casey. Oh yeah.
That's that. Yeah, that one that's one that
could go like like I think you want since he jumping out or I
mean Kansas City jumping out to an early lead in that one
because they're going to throw kind of no matter what.
And then just to keep pushing Cincy who's just like you just
never know what since he's going to do since he's slow to So they
do need to be place not just that they tend to be run first.
It's at their slowest. Well yeah it does seem like just
looking at some of the early DFS projections that of all those
quarterbacks in the in the shootouts that people do not
feel good clicking Kyler these days that that might be the guy.
Then I feel like the Kansas City since the game's a little bit
more of a trap. But like I'd rather be in on the
Dallas Arizona game, we could play the guys that didn't do
well as we play Kyler week, Lacy deal, Am I mean you know what
that game feels like to me Leone a little bit?
It's like that that Steelers game that we talked about a
while back. That's like if I think that game
fails like a lot, the the Dallas game, but when it hits it's
going to like really, really hit to your point about the pace to
offenses pushing each other. I'm pretty nervous about Dallas
defense which I think is like really legit.
Kyler's accuracy has been like way low since he returned from
injury but if he's if he's right it could be Vic.
Yeah, and I think like Casey since he could sneaky foul and
I'm just assuming since he's going to have so much steam
after last week, and then the fact that they're playing Casey
What about the I mean? The Rams like they're going to
be there past first Baltimore's, like a huge pass funnel right
now. Can't stop anyone.
They've allowed the most they're tied with the Jets for the most
15. Plus your past has allowed this
season. I mean you could go deep with
Van Jefferson and obj like you could there could be a ton a ton
of passing points on the rims this week.
Yeah. And Michaele could see like what
90% of the touches easy. Yeah.
Yeah, that Acres going to play. I think they might like mix him
in for a couple snaps but the the word was that.
If he gets if he's active for three games this year than a
cruise a season towards his NFL pension.
So it's basically like like a solid move by.
The ramps are activating him in the regular season.
Seems like they're not really interested in applying him until
the playoffs. Yeah.
Well, if he was only active
roster last week. Oh, oh.
Oh. So 17 and 18 count.
So he'll get the three, got it. Yeah.
So he has 16 17 18? Yeah.
Who is even there? Other running back on the road,
mr. Monk monk, they brought up.
Okay. Yeah he actually got a touch
last week. I was confused as I was named in
the Box Score so you must actually been active.
Yeah, yeah, I don't, ya think Gameday acted, by the way, they
just have to have them on the active roster Acres.
I mean, I'm trying to see what announce highest can Davis Mills
keep playing well and push San Fran at all.
I don't know. We could see more Brandin Cooks.
Magic, probably not. Is he like Mitchell going to be
back. Sorry, sorry is limited today,
think. Yeah, that's going to be a tough
read. Like if he is active like how to
project that split between him and Wilson compliant.
Elijah Mitchell, we've just determined Kyle.
Shanahan loves him after what happened with the broken hand.
When we lost, when I lost betting, unders on his
receiving, when we've been over, this would like the reports
where you could have the club on his hand, was the joke, you were
saying Peter like yeah. And he just just played every
down no matter what? It's I'm Lena life and Mitchell.
If he's back. What is your take on D?
Both if Mitchell's back I-i've been kind of on the feel like
people have overreacted to this like hoo debose running back.
So now he's not getting the same targets thing and like we saw
last game it's like I don't know, I think debose stuff
doesn't change like a whole ton. He's gonna get a few less
carries maybe but I kind of like the running back stuff if it's
Lance, right? Because it's like yeah, you're
taking some sealing off but you're getting a little more
floor. I'm thinking maybe more
season-long stuff, not a GP mind.
It. But yeah.
Do we do we have any confirmation on who's going to
be Baltimore quarterback this week?
We're guessing Lamar right now, he got in a limited practice.
I saw some video where he looked like he could barely walk, but
Jesus, that's what I'm guessing right now.
And he like, man, yeah, talk about quarterbacks with high
ceilings that could not get played between him and Kyler.
Yeah, the integrals. But huntley's back off the covid
list. So It'd be kind of, yeah, that's
going to be in. I'm also cute.
Like, a whole other thing too, is, you know, people got scared
off of drafting, Jonathan Taylor.
When wince, you know, was out at the beginning of the Season,
that was partly why? His ATP dipped.
Now, you have went out this. We want to be back.
Well, he'll the new rules. He's probably going to be back
we think. Wow.
Yeah. They said he's starting if he
clears and he'll probably. Okay.
Is he just needs? It's like And to clear, it's
like, is the team going to report his symptoms.
That's exactly why he doesn't need to test out.
So it's, they decide if he has symptoms, he's fine.
Yeah, yeah. All right.
Then we don't have to worry about Sam ehlinger handing off
to, uh, to Carson Wentz. I mean, it was the threat, of
course. It was passing doing anything
for Taylor anyway. Yes, I think I think so.
Compared to, I mean, barely Sam. Jerry.
Yeah, look how bad it can get with.
Like, you know, the Giants and you just see these involve
offenses. Yeah, the Saints.
It's, it can get so much worse. It's doing the projections and
like having to see like kind of projecting overs on some of
these quarterbacks and having to double check them because
they're just breaking my model there so bad.
Yeah. It can it can it stuff and they
are some like Davis Mills who's like, you know like put it
together the last few weeks it's like, actually been
semi-competent. But yeah, I mean these
Quarterbacks that you just don't know on the range from like,
they're either like that bass like mediocre or like at worse,
like, mega mega bad people and ignant that people even burned a
draft pick and Dynasty on Davis Mills and superflex, and he's
gonna end up being worth more than Trevor Lawrence.
In the end downtown said, it's so funny of like, Davis Mills in
my head, I just assume he's like a journeyman quarterback.
Is like exactly. Like I don't even think of it as
a rookie. I know.
Been anything else on your wish list for week 17.
No, no sweats this week for me at all, I mean, we got the one
completely locked up my God. I'm so goddamn good.
I'm really excited about the playoff contest that will be
back on. Yeah, the week after next, week
after that. Yeah, one week at a time.
Time be in the present. Be in the pregnant.
I don't have any huge one actually.
Been shouldn't be in the present because you can try to drink
certain team. Please look good.
No. Huge sweats know, twenty eight
thousand, five hundred dollars on the line.
Got what have you? I already got.
It generate those, I've just picturing like what a Benz girls
like tossing him a bottle of champagne right now.
No. No.
That was actually supposed to be free, ex-cops it?
Yeah. Is all the bad karma I saw.
Silas said, yes. So next week the programming is
yeah. We bring on the ship Chaser who
takes down one of these big prizes.
And then as grach alluded to week 18, post week 18, we will
get our full programming schedule out to you guys were
going to probably firm that up next week, but I think we're
lining up for five straight days of FPC, show ya, laughs.
Just when you said that, Gotcha, alluded to, I thought you're
going to say, I think I'd take my side and say, will you
celebrate, you know, see what because you were.
So that would have been a nice heel turn.
It's it's gonna build to the Friday night show with us for
and Dink where we have Drake's. That we tailed think what we've
been working on all week and that he gives us the nut play.
And then we laugh we're not playing Gronk.
Okay? Okay.
Between the Gronk and JuJu. Okay, I'm still pissed about
Juju. Thank God.
I had Hassan and the It's on my side.
