00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,320

00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,760
Trevor, Anthony Maggio and I 
will be going over the Sunday 

11
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,360
and Monday games, giving you the
right players to play in your 

12
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,200
fantasy championship. 
We definitely saved the best 

13
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,400
advice for last. 
And if you need help with the 

14
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:41,480
Thursday or Saturday matchups, 
Kent Wyrock and I just did that 

15
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:44,120
podcast episode right before 
this one. 

16
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,360
So make sure that you go listen 
to that if you need help on your

17
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,320
Thursday or Saturday lineup 
decisions. 

18
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,560
If you're listening to this pod 
before the games kick off on 

19
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,920
Christmas Day, we urge you to go
play the Lord's a Leapin and the

20
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:01,760
Christmas Day 5 by 5 on fanball.
Both include the Christmas Day 

21
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,480
only slate, and there's also a 
Saturday 5 by 5 and our normal 

22
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,280
slate of Sunday games. 
All fanball games are super flex

23
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,040
too, which means you can double 
stack those quarterbacks and 

24
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,000
receivers if you use the promo 
code almost when you make a 

25
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,280
deposit will match your entry up
to $20.00 for being a fan of 

26
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,760
this show. 
That's like a free Peacock entry

27
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,520
right there. 
Today we dive deep into the 

28
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,240
Sunday slate for Week 17. 
We're here already. 

29
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,360
Trevor. 
Hit me with some Jingle Bells 

30
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:53,480
from the 
God, stop the Jingle Bells. 

31
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,000
My goodness, that was that's too
many Jingle Bells in in 

32
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,920
succession right there without 
like, music or something going 

33
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:03,880
behind it. 
Trevor, how you doing today? 

34
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,280
Yeah. 
We're not 100%, but no excuses. 

35
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,800
It's championship week, so let's
give the people what they want. 

36
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,760
All right. 
We're going to preview Week 17 

37
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,040
from ADFS perspective today on 
the show. 

38
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,840
And while we generally use those
fanball figures, most of the 

39
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,360
information can be used on any 
of the other salary cap sites. 

40
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,320
We're not going to go through 
the news today. 

41
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,240
We're going to dive right into 
the favorite DFS plays of the 

42
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,560
week after Majd brings you this 
little clip about game Blazers. 

43
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,080
It's Christmas week, which at 
Game Blazers needs a special NFL

Learnmore@gameblazers.com Happy 

52
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:10,320
holidays. 
I'm not sure I can handle Maj. 

53
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,200
and the Santa hat. 
That's too much the. 

54
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,520
Santa hat plus the lamp. 
Yeah, yeah. 

55
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,200
I I do love Lamp though. 
All right, time to dig into week

56
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,160
17. 
Super weird slate on Sunday from

57
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:26,640
ADFS perspective because there's
the three Christmas Day Thursday

58
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:28,760
games. 
There's two Saturday games, by 

59
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,680
the way, there's only two Sunday
afternoon games at all. 

60
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,560
So you're not going to be 
playing red zone on your TV on 

61
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,800
Sunday afternoon. 
Arizona and Cincinnati looks 

62
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,160
like the biggest over under of 
the Sunday slate at 53 1/2. 

63
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,040
Last I checked. 
The only other one in the 50s is

64
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,000
the nightcap, the Bears and 
Niners at 50 1/2. 

65
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,720
There's a few games that are 
kind of like Buzz's girlfriend. 

66
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,960
Woof. 
The Saints and Titans are just 

67
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,840
under 40, and the Steelers and 
Browns 34 1/2. 

68
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,760
That's super low. 
Yeah. 

69
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,800
It's also very important to 
consider which teams have 

70
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,840
something to play for at this 
time of year. 

71
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,320
We're, we're getting down to, 
you know, just the end of the 

72
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,560
season and some teams have 
nothing to play for. 

73
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,399
I was looking at the Chiefs on 
Christmas Day. 

74
00:04:16,399 --> 00:04:19,399
Right now the Chiefs have 
absolutely nothing to play for 

75
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:22,040
and are on backups to backups. 
It's so sad. 

76
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,360
You can basically play no Chiefs
on Christmas Day, but Oh well, 

77
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,440
let's start with some players 
you can play on Sunday. 

78
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,600
Trevor, who's going to be in 
close to half of all your line 

79
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,120
UPS you make this week, or just 
all of them? 

80
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,760
Because this is the most obvious
play of all time. 

81
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,680
Yep, Yep. 
I was going to say we can't 

82
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,200
start anywhere else but with 
Trey McBride 7800 at Cincinnati.

83
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,400
This is no joke, literally the 
best tight end spot in fantasy 

84
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,960
football history. 
McBride outbases all of their 

85
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,480
NFL tight ends this season by 29
catches, 244 yards. 

86
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,680
He also leads that position in 
touchdowns. 

87
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,960
Now he gets the worst tight end 
defense of all time. 

88
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,840
I don't really know what else to
say. 

89
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:01,560
Matt, you've done the if we 
combined all the tight ends face

90
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,480
in Cincinnati into one person, 
they would be, you know, a Space

91
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,000
Jam character when the can you 
play Dawson Knox as a backup 

92
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,520
tight end or the Steelers third 
string? 

93
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,920
So just play frame McBride. 
Some might be scared off from 

94
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,720
the four for 27 mark last week, 
last week, but not us. 

95
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,280
If anything, we might be able to
get a little bit lower ownership

96
00:05:18,280 --> 00:05:22,000
than we normally would. 
The only tight end better than 

97
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,880
Trey McBride is the tight end 
playing the Bengals in any given

98
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:27,720
week. 
Exactly. 

99
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,040
So when the same person, it's 
just. 

100
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,880
Yeah, when the Venn diagram 
overlaps, we're in good shape. 

101
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:40,080
By the way, I will note that 
game is in Cincinnati, supposed 

102
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:45,120
to be a balmy 56° for a December
day in Cincinnati. 

103
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,640
So no weather, no issues there. 
It should be just fine for the 

104
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,280
Cardinals coming in from the 
desert and and and the the 

105
00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:57,080
indoor stadium. 
I think it is going to be a high

106
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,040
scoring affair. 
I'm going to be stacking a lot 

107
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,400
of the Cincy, Arizona game on my
line UPS. 

108
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,640
My guy that I have is also Trey 
McBride. 

109
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:12,880
No, I I considered Saquon here. 
The Eagles don't have anything 

110
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,440
to play for. 
So let's go with the runner on 

111
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,160
the other side of that game, 
It's James Cook. 

112
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,680
And it's worth noting I never 
get James Cook right. 

113
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,400
Ever. 
And Buffalo is still trying to 

114
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,440
keep pace with New England and 
win the East. 

115
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,720
They have an outside chance at 
the number one seed too. 

116
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,440
But Phillies struggled with 
running backs for over a month 

117
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,560
now. 
Jacory Krosky, Merritt and Chris

118
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,520
Rodriguez combined for 94 combo 
yards and two scores last week. 

119
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,280
Both Chargers backs hit double 
digit PPR points recently. 

120
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,240
Swift and Monongi went crazy. 
They ran for 255 yards and two 

121
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,560
scores against the Eagles. 
The Eagles have also given up 

122
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,200
two different 100 yard receiving
games to opposing backs this 

123
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:55,720
year and that's a feat right 
there. 

124
00:06:56,280 --> 00:06:58,720
So I, I kind of like James Cook 
in this one. 

125
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,560
He I think he'll be a little a 
little overlooked in this one. 

126
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,000
So I'd roll with James Cook 
here. 

127
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,360
How about a guy that you would 
not put in any of your line UPS 

128
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,640
this week about a higher priced 
guy, Trevor. 

129
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,560
Yeah, I think he's been the most
popular pick for me in this 

130
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,080
spot. 
And that's JT again, 7900 home 

131
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,560
against Jacksonville. 
He saw this exact match up just 

132
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,160
two weeks ago. 
It kind of floundered. 

133
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,480
Only 21 carries for 74 yards and
just the one touchdown. 

134
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,080
Also 0 passing game work. 
Jacksonville is also maybe the 

135
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,840
toughest running back match up 
in the league right now. 

136
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,680
They've permitted an average of 
just 68 rushing yards per game 

137
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,880
to enemy backs, which is second 
second best in the league. 

138
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,520
Even with Philip Rivers wanting 
to check the ball down a ton, JT

139
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,200
had less targets and catches 
than Amir Abdullah did in 

140
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,400
River's first game. 
And then last night, obviously, 

141
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,800
I think we saw 68 points total 
and JT had just three targets in

142
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,080
that game. 
He also hasn't cracked 17 PPR 

143
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,240
points since Week 10. 
I just I'm spending up elsewhere

144
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,080
this week. 
All right, I've got the running 

145
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,240
back on the other side of that 
game right here. 

146
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,320
I got Travis Etienne, who I used
last week. 

147
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:04,920
He did OK. 
He scored once, but he didn't 

148
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,480
return the 3X value. 
And I'm going back to the well 

149
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,320
this week faces the Colts. 
Colts have only allowed one 

150
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,040
running back to top 80 rushing 
yards this year. 

151
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,360
In Week 14, these two teams 
played. 

152
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,800
Etienne did score twice and that
helped him, but it took him 20 

153
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,000
carries to hit only 74 yards and
that's just not enough 

154
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,920
production right there. 
Over his four games, he's been 

155
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:30,400
held under 4.0 yards per carry 
in every one of them. 

156
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,960
So he's not running at a high 
level right now. 

157
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,919
He's getting all the work, but 
it's not not super successful. 

158
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,720
All right. 
Favorite quarterback play of the

159
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,360
week, Trevor, who you got? 
Yeah, well actually he flipped 

160
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,520
to the passing game for the Jags
and I'm going to go with Trevor 

161
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,680
Lawrence, 6400 against Indy. 
He's playing the best ball of 

162
00:08:48,680 --> 00:08:51,160
his career right now. 
He's got 18 touchdowns in his 

163
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,200
last five games and at least 5 
rushing attempts and six of his 

164
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,280
last 8. 
So he's giving us higher floor 

165
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,480
and he's giving us a ceiling 
that I didn't really know he had

166
00:08:58,560 --> 00:09:01,480
until maybe the last two weeks. 
The rushing for him could be a 

167
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,520
little bit limited. 
Indy is the best in the league 

168
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,160
against the quarterback run 
game, but the Colts do show 

169
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,080
cracks through the air, ranking 
bottom 3IN completions and 

170
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,240
passing yards allowed to enemy 
offenses. 

171
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,480
India also allows the most 
catches in the league to the 

172
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,960
wide receiver position, and they
just got hit for five passing 

173
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,240
touchdowns by Brock Purdy on 
Monday Night Football. 

174
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,640
Lawrence is honestly probably 
the hottest quarterback in the 

175
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:21,880
league right now. 
I'm going to keep rolling with 

176
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,840
him in Week 17 here. 
Trevor Jones. 

177
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,520
This would have been the Trevor 
versus Jones match up for 

178
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,240
quarterback if we had Daniel 
Jones stayed healthy. 

179
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,480
He got that going for you. 
Yeah, Trevor Rivers isn't. 

180
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,560
As good? 
No, it doesn't roll off the 

181
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:40,040
tongue as well, unless you like 
to roll your Rs. 

182
00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:45,520
Trevor River. 
My expensive pick is Drake May. 

183
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:51,880
He's 6900 at The Jets. 
He's topped 270 yards five times

184
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,400
in his last six games, and when 
you combine rushing and passing 

185
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,040
scores, he's responsible for at 
least two touchdowns in every 

186
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,680
game but three this season. 
In Week 11 against The Jets, he 

187
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,080
hit 281 passing yards, only one 
touchdown pass. 

188
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,240
I guess that's the risk is that 
the Pats get up too big and they

189
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,600
just stop passing. 
But they got to get up big 

190
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,960
first, and The Jets are not good
at anything. 

191
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,080
They've allowed the ninth most 
passing touchdowns 15 games in. 

192
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,040
They still haven't intercepted a
ball. 

193
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,160
Has a team ever got a full 
season? 

194
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,680
Do we know without a pick like 
in the Super Bowl era? 

195
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:31,200
I I don't know, but they got two
more games to go and I don't 

196
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,200
know if they're gonna do it. 
Good luck. 

197
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:34,720
All right, Who's your budget 
pick, Trevor? 

198
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,840
Yeah, not too much cheaper here.
Caleb Williams, 5900 at San 

199
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,920
Francisco. 
Yeah, Speaking of guys playing 

200
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,600
their best ever ball, Caleb's 
got multiple touchdown passes in

201
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,560
three straight with 0 picks, and
that's coming against quality 

202
00:10:46,560 --> 00:10:48,400
defense. 
He's seen Green Bay twice and 

203
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:49,880
Cleveland wants in those three 
games. 

204
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,320
This game, like you said, has 
the second highest total on the 

205
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,880
slate. 
It's just one of two games over 

206
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,520
50 points projection since 
they're by San Fran has allowed 

207
00:10:57,560 --> 00:11:00,960
KM Moore and Phil Rivers to 
combine for a 64% completion 

208
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,840
percentage, nearly 225 passing 
yards and two passing touchdowns

209
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,760
per game. 
You could argue those are two of

210
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,120
the worst fantasy quarterbacks 
in the league. 

211
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,320
Hopefully, the Bears do get one 
of Rome or Luther Burden back 

212
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,760
for Sunday Night Football. 
Burden looks the more likely, 

213
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,080
but yeah, keep an eye on that as
we get closer to Sunday night. 

214
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,600
All right, I'm, I'm mirroring 
you in a lot of ways today. 

215
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,240
I'm finding out because I've got
the quarterback on the other 

216
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,000
side of that match up and that's
Brock Purdy 6300 against 

217
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,480
Chicago. 
Great game on Monday night. 5 

218
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,520
touchdown passes. 
The first 49ers quarterback to 

219
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,280
thrill for five touchdown passes
since Joe Montana. 

220
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:41,240
Yes, I used to play Joe Montana 
Sports Talk football on Sega 

221
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:45,280
Genesis back in the day. 
It bodes well that a large 

222
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,400
quantity of touchdown passes 
impresses you, Trevor, because 

223
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,480
the Bears have allowed the fifth
most touchdown passes in the 

224
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,080
league this year. 
The quarterbacks that have not 

225
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,120
had multiple touchdown passes 
against the Bears are as 

226
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:02,040
follows. 
Malik Willis, Chadur Sanders. 

227
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,280
Mason Rudolph. 
JJ McCarthy in one of the 

228
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,680
meetings. 
Jackson Dart, Tyler Huntley and 

229
00:12:09,680 --> 00:12:12,920
then randomly Dak Prescott. 
Everybody else has had multiple 

230
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,200
touchdown passes. 
That's not a who's who of the 

231
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,360
great quarterbacks in the league
right there outside of DAC on 

232
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,320
that list. 
So basically, if Purdy has a 

233
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,040
pulse, he's throwing for 
multiple scorers in this game. 

234
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,160
The Niners still have a shot at 
the number one seed, by the way,

235
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,120
if they win the their final two 
games, which are both home 

236
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,240
games. 
They have home field advantage 

237
00:12:32,560 --> 00:12:35,600
in the NFC and the Super Bowls 
being played in their home 

238
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,360
stadium. 
So they got that going for them,

239
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,720
notably the Niners. 
This is this is just a fun stat.

240
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,320
They've made the NFC 
championship game or missed the 

241
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:52,360
playoffs in 22 straight seasons.
I love that stat so much. 

242
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,560
I was going to say it's got. 
To see if it may be like every 

243
00:12:56,560 --> 00:13:00,280
other, you know, missed playoff,
but yeah, 22 straight they're. 

244
00:13:00,680 --> 00:13:03,200
They're either in the final four
or they're out. 

245
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,960
Because before Kyle Shanahan, 
they had, I suppose, like one or

246
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,200
two conference championships 
with Harbaugh, and then they 

247
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,960
were also just bad for a while 
before that. 

248
00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:12,880
So yeah, that's what a that's a 
crazy stat. 

249
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,920
Well done, pretty. 
Wild, huh? 

250
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,600
Yeah. 
All right, Trevor, let's go to 

251
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,560
the running back position. 
Who do you got? 

252
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,440
Yeah, we'll stay in that game. 
If you notice, we target like 

253
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,280
two or three of the games 
because it's a nasty slate. 

254
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,080
So just targeting the highest 
scoring games is, I don't know 

255
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:29,720
that's a, that's a good strap. 
I'm thinking. 

256
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,960
So we'll go CMC here. 8400 home 
against Chicago. 

257
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,560
He's averaged 26 touches per 
game over his last four. 

258
00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:37,240
He's got 5 touchdowns in those 
games. 

259
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,960
On Monday night, he saw 8 red 
zone touches on the year. 

260
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,040
He has 59% of the Niners red 
zone touches. 

261
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,880
He has 89 total this year. 
Only two players have even 

262
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,800
crossed 60. 
It's easier to beat the Bears 

263
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,480
through the air than on the 
ground, but they do still give 

264
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,200
up nearly 4.8 yards per carry on
the ground, which is fifth worst

265
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,320
in the league. 
Chicago was just hit by Packers 

266
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,760
backs last week to the tune of 
27 carries for 142 yards, mostly

267
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,720
done by their backup runner. 
Like you said, San Fran still 

268
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,160
kind of got everything to play 
for, and Sunday night hammer 

269
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,120
CMC. 
That's about as fun as it gets 

270
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,320
in DFS. 
Yeah, that's pretty sweet. 

271
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,840
Like you said, we're hammering 
those games that we really like 

272
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,640
this week, and that's since the 
Arizona game staring me right in

273
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,640
the face. 
Chase Brown is 6900 at home 

274
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,120
against the Cardinals. 3 
touchdowns last week in Miami. 

275
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,160
21 catches in his last four 
games. 

276
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,680
Has had at least 16 fan ball 
points in eight straight games. 

277
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,280
So it's a pretty safe floor 
here. 

278
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,440
And the upside of playing the 
Cardinals is awesome. 

279
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,200
They're allowing 4.8 yards per 
carry, fourth worst in the NFL. 

280
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,240
Their bottom five in rushing 
yards and scores, receiving 

281
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:48,560
touchdowns to backs, touches per
game, combo yards and total 

282
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,080
touches to running backs or 
total touchdowns to running 

283
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,600
backs. 
They bad at football by the way.

284
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,560
The weather in Cincy. 
Like I said, mid 50s. 

285
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,960
I'm stacking the heck out of 
this game. 

286
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,400
I'm with you, cheap. 
Runner. 

287
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,160
Yeah, it's not a great week for 
cheap runners. 

288
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,400
I go in with Tony Pollard, 5600 
home against the Saints. 

289
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,800
The Titans have committed 
heavily to Tony Pollard over the

290
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,760
last three games. 
He's averaging over 20 touches 

291
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,760
per game. 
The deficiency's been there as 

292
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:17,400
well for him. 
He's cleared 100 rushing yards 

293
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,520
in three straight. 
New Orleans is not an imposing 

294
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,000
match up for running backs. 
Their weak points are that 

295
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,080
they've allowed the 7th most 
rushing yards and third most 

296
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,960
touches to the position. 
Tennessee obviously not a good 

297
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,840
team, but they're only a 2 1/2 
point home underdog, which 

298
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,800
should keep the game strip 
tilted more in favor of Pollard 

299
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,600
over passing game back Taija 
Spears. 

300
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,480
All right, I like that one. 
Taija Spears had a nice week 

301
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:39,480
last week, too. 
We did. 

302
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:44,360
Yeah, I got Romandre Stevenson 
5700 at The Jets. 

303
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,600
Trayvon Henderson is in the 
concussion protocol. 

304
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,240
It would seem insane to me, even
if they could figure out a way 

305
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,400
to rush Henderson back, that the
Pats would need him to beat The 

306
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,560
Jets here. 
So it's probably Stevenson in 

307
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,320
the lead back role. 
And he's been pretty good in 

308
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:05,360
relief in the last two weeks, 
last two weeks with under 50% of

309
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:11,320
the carries, 14 carries, 101 
yards in a score, plus 5 catches

310
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,920
and 54 yards through the air. 
So that's like one game's worth 

311
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,800
of touches, too. 
This is The Jets. 

312
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,760
They've allowed the most 
touchdowns to running backs in 

313
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,920
the league this year, 23 so far.
I think Stevenson's in a pretty 

314
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,840
nice spot here. 
And I think Terrell Jennings is 

315
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,760
like the only other back that 
even like, gets touches on the 

316
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,640
roster. 
And he's like a grinder. 

317
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,840
So yeah, actually I think I like
from Andre better than my 

318
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:38,840
Pollard call there. 
All right. 

319
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,720
Wide receiver position. 
Who's your expensive guy? 

320
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:43,840
T-bone. 
Yeah. 

321
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,480
What with? 
The Chris Olave 7K at Tennessee 

322
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,120
Tennessee is a good match up for
Olave. 

323
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,320
The Titans have allowed nearly 
160 receiving yard wide receiver

324
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,120
yards per game, seventh most in 
the league. 

325
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,360
Prior to shutting down Gardner 
Minshew with something called 

326
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:01,880
Chris Oladekun maybe last week, 
the Titans have given up at 

327
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,400
least 75 receiving arts, the 
last five receiver ones they 

328
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,920
faced, including five touchdowns
to those players next to Chris 

329
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,040
Alave, Devon Vele was leading 
these Saints received a corner 

330
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,280
snaps and since he was injured 
against Carolina two weeks ago, 

331
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,160
Chris Alave has a massive 31% 
target share in that span and. 

332
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,920
Vele is on IR now, so his 
season's over. 

333
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:27,440
My expensive pick JSN at 8400. 
The most expensive player on the

334
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,440
board for wide receivers. 
He pitched a 23 point game last 

335
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:37,840
week in the second-half. 
He was shut out halftime. 20 or 

336
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,200
more fan ball points in 13 of 15
games this season. 

337
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,240
Super consistent. 
The match up is very interesting

338
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,480
against Carolina. 
JSN runs most of his routes from

339
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,600
the slot so he gets Chow Smith 
Wade. 

340
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,080
He's the easiest match up of the
Carolina corners, but even if he

341
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,040
flexes out wide and gets Jaycee 
Horn, he's allowed five 

342
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:57,720
touchdowns in his coverage this 
season. 

343
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,120
So JS NS talent is way better 
than whatever the Panthers throw

344
00:18:02,120 --> 00:18:04,840
at him. 
And remember the Seahawks they 

345
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,800
need to win too if they want to 
keep home field advantage in 

346
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,320
this 1. 
So it's a super important game. 

347
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:15,680
I think they feed JSN copiously.
And Carolina absolutely has to 

348
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:16,920
win to keep the playoff hopes 
alive. 

349
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,640
So hopefully it's a little bit 
of a shootout there They. 

350
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:24,240
Carolina, I believe they can 
lose this one and just beat 

351
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,240
Tampa next week and they win the
division. 

352
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,760
So this one, not as important 
for the Panthers, but definitely

353
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,960
important for the Seahawks. 
All right, who's your budget? 

354
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,000
Wide receiver? 
Yeah, we're actually going to 

355
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,880
stick. 
On the same team here, Jawan 

356
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,040
Johnson 4200 at Tennessee. 
I'm aware that Jawan Johnson 

357
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:43,840
doesn't play receiver on fan 
ball. 

358
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,200
He does so. 
With Devon Bailey out. 

359
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,320
Johnson is the de facto #2 pass 
game target after Chris Allave. 

360
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:52,840
Johnson took advantage of the 
opportunity last week. 

361
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,280
He had 9 targets and he cashed 
him in for eight for 89. 

362
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,560
He's got 4 catches in six 
straight games. 

363
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,000
So he's actually done a decent 4
play. 

364
00:18:59,360 --> 00:19:01,360
Titans are just a middling match
up against the position. 

365
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:03,480
And like you said, it's 
important that the teams are 

366
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:04,760
still playing hard. 
The Saints. 

367
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,160
Saints and Titans are two teams 
absolutely still playing hard 

368
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,600
despite, you know, their playoff
hopes were done in Week 6 or 

369
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,080
whatever. 
So yeah, the Saints. 

370
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,040
Definitely want to finish the 
season strong. 

371
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,560
They feel like they've got 
things to build on and they they

372
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,280
might be in the mix for the 
playoffs next year. 

373
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,840
So I think that they want to 
finish super strong. 

374
00:19:22,120 --> 00:19:25,280
Kind of weird that the Titans 
want to since they were in in 

375
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,320
line for a number one overall 
pick maybe, but Oh well. 

376
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:34,040
My budget receiver is Mack 
Hollins 3600 at The Jets. 

377
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,520
He's he's a member of the 
Patriots. 

378
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:41,240
If you lost track, far and away,
at very minimum the number 2 

379
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,360
wide receiver in Drake May's 
offense. 

380
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,560
And you could argue on some days
he's the number 19 targets last 

381
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,480
week. 
Oh wait, here we go 9 * 9. 

382
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,880
There we go. 9 targets last 
week, 7 catches, 69 yards. 

383
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,920
He was only one target behind 
Stefan Digs. 8 targets the week 

384
00:19:59,920 --> 00:20:02,040
before that was four more than 
Digs. 

385
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,600
So he's led the wide receiver 
room in snapshare basically all 

386
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,200
year long. 
I I didn't know this. 

387
00:20:09,360 --> 00:20:13,000
He has 130 more snaps than 
Stephon Diggs this year. 

388
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,120
Wow. 
He's on the. 

389
00:20:15,120 --> 00:20:18,640
Field all the time and he's dirt
cheap and he's playing The Jets.

390
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,280
I already told you I like Drake 
May. 

391
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,160
This is a super inexpensive way 
to get a duo against the team 

392
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:29,000
that just gave up ten catches, 
148 yards and two scores last 

393
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,280
week to your guy Chris Olave. 
I like it. 

394
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,520
All right. 
Tight end plays, and it it's 

395
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,120
tight end plays with a little 
caveat on it that your tight end

396
00:20:39,120 --> 00:20:41,920
play is Trey McBride. 
But who else could you play? 

397
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,000
Correct. 
So actually the expense of tight

398
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,000
end here, I think you can play. 
I got Harold Fannin for the 

399
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,200
Browns 5100 at home against 
Pittsburgh, and Joe Kuzan 

400
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:52,640
remained out. 
At this point, he might just be 

401
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,440
ruled out for the season with 
just a couple games to go. 

402
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,000
Fannin's been excellent 
recently. 

403
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,920
At least 12 PPR points, four 
straight games and a touchdown 

404
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,280
in three of those 4. 
We've talked about steel. 

405
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,200
'S Defense Tight end defense is 
horrific. 4th most yards, 

406
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:05,800
catches and touchdowns to the 
position. 

407
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,440
Pittsburgh's so bad that they 
gave up seven for 60 to a pair 

408
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,680
of Detroit tight ends last week 
who had previously combined for 

409
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:16,760
one catch since 2023. 
So. 

410
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,200
Literal like it just, you know, 
plumbers and firemen are coming 

411
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,720
off the street here to catch 
tight ends Tenon catches against

412
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,280
Pittsburgh. 
So I'm going to fan in it 

413
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:26,840
expensive tight end. 
What is? 

414
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,520
Wrong with the AFC North in 
their tight end defense. 

415
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,720
I don't get it. 
That's horrific this year. 

416
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,320
All right, my expensive pick. 
I think you can roll with George

417
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:39,040
Kittle 5900 against Chicago. 
There's two games where I want 

418
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,040
as many pieces as possible. 
This is one of them. 

419
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,920
Kittle coming off another gym, 7
catches, 115 yards and a score 

420
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,360
against the Colts. 
He's one of those few tight ends

421
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,680
who can give you that huge 
upside. 

422
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:55,320
The Bears are fine against the 
tight end, but just fine if the 

423
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,600
Niners. 
You know, need. 

424
00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:58,920
To win out. 
And they do. 

425
00:21:59,920 --> 00:22:01,480
Kittle's going to be fed in this
game. 

426
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,400
Rock Purdy hits Kittle, Rock 
Purdy hits Jennings. 

427
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,080
Rock Purdy hits McCaffrey over 
and over again. 

428
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:09,840
All right, You got a budget 
tight end? 

429
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,240
Yeah. 
It's nasty again with all the 

430
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,360
Thursday, Saturday games. 
It's just that's tough. 

431
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,400
I got AJ Barner for Seattle 3500
at Carolina. 

432
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,160
He has 3 or 4 catches and four 
straight games. 

433
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,400
He did find his way into the end
zone last week through the air. 

434
00:22:26,120 --> 00:22:29,280
Keep in mind, he is still tasked
with being the twish push option

435
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,200
for the Seattle. 
So he's always live for a, you 

436
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,000
know, potential one yard score 
there. 

437
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,600
Carolina's bottom third in the 
league, permitting nearly 60 

438
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,520
yards per game to the position. 
So Barner's a decent punt tight 

439
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,240
end, but you could just play 
Trey McBride and not have to do 

440
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:42,280
this. 
Yeah. 

441
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,320
My budget tight end I mean, you 
used a tight end at wide 

442
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:51,560
receiver I'm using a tight end 
who's listed as a wide receiver 

443
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:57,000
on fan ball 2 Elijah Higgins, 
Trey McBride's teammate and 

444
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,240
because it's. 
The Bengals we're. 

445
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,920
Going, we're going against them.
We're going hard somewhat 

446
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,320
randomly. 
He had eight targets, 7 catches 

447
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,280
and 91 yards against Atlanta 
last week. 

448
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,840
He's not a complete zero either.
He's had two or three targets in

449
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,080
nine other games this season. 
That's in an offense where he 

450
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:20,680
has to share with Trey McBride. 
So he's he's there the middle of

451
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,760
the field, consistently open 
against tight ends for the 

452
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,600
Bengals. 
If if he gets you 7 points, 

453
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,200
which is like nothing, it's like
3 catches for 40 yards. 

454
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,080
That would allow you to build 
some crazy line UPS because he's

455
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,720
at minimum price. 
He's the $3000 guy that you, I 

456
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:40,120
think you could actually play. 
By the way, 22 tight ends have 

457
00:23:40,120 --> 00:23:42,440
scored seven points against the 
Bengals this year. 

458
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,280
That's insane. 
So he's got like a. 

459
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,760
Again, even with their backups, 
so you got like 1/2 chance to 

460
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,920
like have a usable fantasy day. 
It's just, yeah. 

461
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,560
That's nuts. 
The bar is low. 

462
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,640
You just need something all 
right, Deep, deep sleeper. 

463
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,440
And I don't know if we can get 
much deeper than Elijah Higgins 

464
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,560
there. 
Yeah. 

465
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,280
I went to Smaja P Ryan, the 
backup running back for the 

466
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,320
Bengals 4300 against the 
Cardinals. 

467
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,560
Again, it's sort of a let's 
let's bet on this game script or

468
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,560
this game environment. 
In the four games since his 

469
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:17,400
return from injury, P Ryan's 
seen 47 touches, including two 

470
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,120
different games with at least 15
touches. 

471
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,000
He found the end zone last week 
and now he gets a prime match up

472
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,720
with the Cardinals, who are 
bottom five in touches, yards 

473
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,240
and touchdowns allowed to the 
position. 

474
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,320
Like we said, it's the highest 
over under on the slate since 

475
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,240
you can get to 30 points. 
As they have in three of their 

476
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,760
last four games. 
P Ryan could be in for a useful 

477
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,560
day at, you know, 4K price tag 
at runner back. 

478
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:37,840
How many? 
Points. 

479
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:39,360
Did they score in that other 
game? 

480
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,360
Zero. 
That was 0. 

481
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:44,920
We don't. 
We don't. 

482
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:49,200
Talk about that one, no? 
We don't talk about Bruno, my 

483
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,720
deep sleeper. 
I whiffed last week on Jaden 

484
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,160
Higgins. 
I had a couple good weeks in a 

485
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,840
row, but evidently CJ Stroud 
doesn't like Jaden Higgins. 

486
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,120
Davis Mills does, but Stroud 
doesn't. 

487
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:04,200
But this week we're vibing with 
the Amari Demarcato Comeback 

488
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,080
tour. 
He's 3900 at Cincy. 

489
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,200
And I mean, we're we're just 
picking on this game here. 

490
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,920
Our deep sleepers are the backup
running backs in this game. 

491
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,600
Michael Carter did fine last 
week and I think that he's 

492
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,840
definitely in play too. 
In line UPS. 

493
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,720
He's 4900 this week. 
Carter only had 11 touches. 

494
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,640
Demarcado was mixed in for five 
rushing attempts, had a target 

495
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,400
too. 
The Bengals are allowing 29 

496
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:32,640
touches per game to opposing 
backs and a league high 173 

497
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,360
combo yards per game. 
So let's say that Demarcado gets

498
00:25:36,360 --> 00:25:39,920
a third of that, that's 65 yards
that's usable. 

499
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,560
The Bengals have allowed the 4th
most touchdowns in the leagues 

500
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,320
to backs as well. 
So that's definitely in play 

501
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,680
too, as long as he doesn't drop 
it on the goal line. 

502
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,240
But you still need to be pretty 
good to get so wide open that 

503
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,360
you're all alone on the goal 
line to drop the ball. 

504
00:25:55,720 --> 00:26:00,280
So let's see if Amari Demarcato 
can can do it this week. 

505
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,600
I think you can find the end 
zone I think. 

506
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,120
So too, and they they cut Carter
snaps a little bit last week as 

507
00:26:05,120 --> 00:26:06,680
well. 
So he certainly. 

508
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:11,480
Did all right Trevor let's let's
talk about what what your line 

509
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,480
up might be on fan ball this 
week yeah I've got a line up 

510
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,320
I'd. 
Also mentioned it is obviously 

511
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,080
fantasy championship week and I 
know some people will like to do

512
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,720
the throw your opponents. 
Your fantasy. 

513
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,640
Championship opponents line up 
into ADFS contest so if he gets 

514
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,680
destroyed or he goes nuts I was 
playing. 

515
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:33,040
Christian Peterson last night in
a in a in ADFS game. 

516
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:37,560
I had three players going. 
I had Purdy, Kittle and Pittman 

517
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:42,280
going and he made AI think a 
prize picks line up or something

518
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,240
like that with those guys as the
hedge. 

519
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:46,360
Yeah, yeah. 
I was going to say so, you know,

520
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,680
just in case you get crossed, 
you can pick up a little bit of 

521
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,280
fan ball bucks. 
But yeah, my line up here at 

522
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,560
quarterback, I've got Jacoby 
Brissett and Caleb Williams, 

523
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:58,440
running back, CMC Romandre and 
Chase Brown, receiver Elijah 

524
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,920
Higgins, Chris Olave, Juwan 
Johnson and then the free space 

525
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,200
of all free spaces, Trey 
McBride. 

526
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,760
All right, sounds pretty good. 
This is the time of the show 

527
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,720
where if you're watching on 
video, we pop up the old Sunday 

528
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:16,960
5 by 5 options for this week. 
And normally, Trevor, we start 

529
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,120
the Sunday 5 by 5 with the late 
afternoon games. 

530
00:27:20,120 --> 00:27:24,040
But since there's just only two 
afternoon games and one Sunday 

531
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,480
night game, we extended it to 
the whole player pool this week.

532
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:33,160
So a little bit larger player 
pool, but who stuck out to you? 

533
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,360
And for me, I think it's that 
Cardinals, Bengals game. 

534
00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:39,400
There's a lot of guys lower on 
that list that I think I just 

535
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:43,280
want to get involved with. 
I agree, yeah, Trey McBride not 

536
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,080
being $5 stands out to me. 
That feels like a lock. 

537
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,680
And then I I agree, I think 
shooting at the Bengals, 

538
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:55,080
Cardinals and 49ers Bears games 
are the way I would attack it. 

539
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,720
So yeah, CMC is also, you get a 
dollar off of him when he should

540
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,120
usually be $5. 
Yeah, Chase Brown at 2 is a 

541
00:28:02,120 --> 00:28:04,160
great value. 
So that's probably where I'd 

542
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:08,200
head. 
You can go Trey McBride, CMC, 

543
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:12,600
Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase and 
you've spent $14.00. 

544
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,000
So then you can throw a $1.00 
guy in there like a George 

545
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,720
Kittle or a DJ Moore. 
I kind of like that. 

546
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,400
It's going to be a high scoring.
Week, I think for at least for 

547
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,600
this contest. 
Yeah, all. 

548
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:31,320
Right, that's it for the DFS pod
this week, and I should note 

549
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:37,760
