Speaker 1: Wow, Hey, everybody, welcome to another edition of the NFL
0:13
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Show. It's Me Your Man, m G. Marcus
0:16
Speaker 1: grand Joy by Michael left Florio and Lakwan Jones won
0:19
Speaker 1: in Week ten. Fellas, we've officially made it to the
0:21
Speaker 1: double digit weeks, means uh, we got we got five five,
0:26
Speaker 1: five weeks of the fantasy regular season, enough that you
0:28
Speaker 1: can count on one hand even Antonio Alfonseka, that's a
0:32
Speaker 1: joke because he had six fingers. I'm sad nowhere, look
0:38
Speaker 1: it up.
0:39
Speaker 2: I'm saying this like this season is it's flying by
0:43
Speaker 2: zooming blind.
0:45
Speaker 1: Here we are, here, we are, We're past Halloween, We're
0:47
Speaker 1: into November. So uh, the time is getting short for
0:50
Speaker 1: you to make some moves in your fantasy football leagu
0:52
Speaker 1: We're here to help because we've got our starts. In
0:54
Speaker 1: six four Week ten, we get an aj Brown Vibes
0:57
Speaker 1: check perhaps, plus we bolt up with the charge wide
1:00
Speaker 1: ouse and got our bold predictions for the week. But guy,
1:03
Speaker 1: as always, we do our starts and sits primarily here
1:06
Speaker 1: on this show. You can read all about him on
1:08
Speaker 1: the interwebs, and Michael le Florio writes him every week.
1:11
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com slash starts sit where people generally read
1:14
Speaker 1: them and have a very measured response, especially if somehow
1:16
Speaker 1: you just maybe happen to get one wrong.
1:19
Speaker 2: You guys know this, like there's some weeks where your
1:21
Speaker 2: calls are they don't work out, and the Internet make
1:24
Speaker 2: sure you know about it. But like last week, I
1:26
Speaker 2: had a tremendous week college wise, and I didn't get
1:30
Speaker 2: a single tweet. I was like, come on everyone.
1:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, just the whole thing is just that's just how
1:35
Speaker 1: it works. So we will try it again for yet
1:38
Speaker 1: another week. So let's start with the quarterbacks. Who are
1:40
Speaker 1: your starts and sits for Week ten?
1:42
Speaker 2: I think Justin Herbert is in a great matchup this week,
1:45
Speaker 2: even with a banged up Olna. I would trust him.
1:47
Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford, to me, is a must play this week
1:50
Speaker 2: against the forty nine ers. He's been red hot as
1:53
Speaker 2: of late. I think Jackson Dart is a must play
1:55
Speaker 2: against the Bears. I said it on the show earlier
1:58
Speaker 2: this week, but only Alan Lamar and Mahomes have averaged
2:01
Speaker 2: more Fantasy points per game since he's become the starter.
2:04
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams, look, he's not going to give you what
2:06
Speaker 2: he did last week, but it is a fantastic matchup
2:09
Speaker 2: against the New York Giants. And then I think Jared
2:12
Speaker 2: Goff right now, his touchdown rate would be the lowest
2:14
Speaker 2: of his career. I think regression hits, and it usually
2:17
Speaker 2: hits in a big way, and he has a fantastic
2:19
Speaker 2: matchup this week. And in the six Daniel Jones is
2:22
Speaker 2: a spicy one. But the Falcons have been a really
2:25
Speaker 2: tough matchup for quarterbacks and they get after them at.
2:28
Speaker 1: A very high rate.
2:30
Speaker 2: Jordan Love has been so up and down, and the
2:32
Speaker 2: Eagles are a tough matchup justin fields. The Browns are
2:36
Speaker 2: not only really good against the past, they're great at
2:38
Speaker 2: stopping running quarterbacks. Trevor Lawrence. Just the Houston matchup is
2:43
Speaker 2: so scary. And then JJ McCarthy. I think a lot
2:45
Speaker 2: of people might lean into streaming him because of the
2:47
Speaker 2: Ravens matchup, but they've been better as of late, and
2:51
Speaker 2: I think this is something we've seen in the past.
2:52
Speaker 2: After their bye, they kind of fix things up on defense.
2:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, very interesting one there too. That's one. As I
2:58
Speaker 1: was looking at and trying to come up with sleep,
3:00
Speaker 1: it took a long look at that rate. It's my
3:03
Speaker 1: saying game before I made a decision, Lakwan, let's start
3:06
Speaker 1: on the start side of things. We leave this open
3:10
Speaker 1: for you on the rundown so you can sort of
3:12
Speaker 1: decide which guys you want to talk about. And on
3:14
Speaker 1: Wednesday show, we said a lot of things about the
3:17
Speaker 1: forty nine ers and we didn't say anything about the Rams,
3:20
Speaker 1: and you were all in your feelings. So please, I
3:22
Speaker 1: will open the space for you to hype up Matthew Stafford.
3:26
Speaker 3: First of all, you're going to respect mister MVP Hall
3:29
Speaker 3: of Fame Legacy Tour this season, Matthew Stafford leading the
3:32
Speaker 3: league and passing touchdowns. And listen, man, I understand it's
3:36
Speaker 3: winers week, man. The tensions will be high, but I'm
3:39
Speaker 3: very confident Matthew Stafford in starting lineups as a QB one.
3:43
Speaker 3: I'm even willing to say that he will be a
3:45
Speaker 3: top five quarterback this week. Man, you gotta have him
3:48
Speaker 3: locked in. Don't question about it. Don't worry about what
3:51
Speaker 3: happened last time these two teams met.
3:53
Speaker 1: I forgot about it.
3:54
Speaker 3: It's in the past. I don't even understand what people
3:57
Speaker 3: are talking about when they bring up a fumble on
3:59
Speaker 3: the goal line. This is Matthew Stafford punishing game against
4:02
Speaker 3: those forty winers because they got nobody on that defensive
4:05
Speaker 3: line that is going to be able to get pressure
4:07
Speaker 3: on it. So he's gonna be cool, calm and collected
4:09
Speaker 3: and doing no look past his all game long?
4:12
Speaker 1: Did I black out somewhere along the way, Like do
4:14
Speaker 1: we ever disrespect Matthew Stafford on this show? Right?
4:18
Speaker 2: I said nothing but nice thing?
4:19
Speaker 3: Like I like saying VP before you say Matthew Stafford.
4:24
Speaker 1: I mean this is I mean, it really is like
4:25
Speaker 1: if somebody is not one hundred percent complimentary of like Beyonce,
4:28
Speaker 1: then the beehive comes after you. It's like the same thing.
4:30
Speaker 1: This is exactly what this is. And I'm bekay with
4:33
Speaker 1: that comparison.
4:34
Speaker 2: Talking yesterday after the show and I was like, yeah,
4:37
Speaker 2: it's like Alan May, it's all out in front of
4:39
Speaker 2: all these guys, Stafford and but it's just not the favorite,
4:42
Speaker 2: that's all.
4:42
Speaker 3: Do you see the order that he said Stafford a
4:45
Speaker 3: Stafford first and then Allen May.
4:48
Speaker 1: You realize you realize the term Stan comes from an
4:51
Speaker 1: eminem song, and you realize, do you remember what happens
4:54
Speaker 1: to Stan at the end.
4:54
Speaker 2: Of the song?
4:57
Speaker 1: Off it, I'm just saying Stan didn't have a happy ending.
5:01
Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying, So you know, just just keep
5:04
Speaker 1: that in mind. Anyway, Let's let's turn the page through
5:07
Speaker 1: the side of things, and we sort of talked about
5:09
Speaker 1: this a little bit, right this Ravens Vikings game and
5:13
Speaker 1: what we're doing there in terms of start, sit, sleepers,
5:15
Speaker 1: or whatever. Are you feeling starting perhaps mister Jonathan James
5:20
Speaker 1: McCarthy this.
5:21
Speaker 2: Week, I didn't know his full name.
5:23
Speaker 1: Oh man, you and the government names.
5:24
Speaker 3: Marcus is great at this, he does the research. But man,
5:28
Speaker 3: I'm looking at JJ McCarthy as a hot waiver wire
5:31
Speaker 3: pick up this week. And I know a lot of
5:33
Speaker 3: folks are probably wounded at the quarterback position, but I
5:35
Speaker 3: am tempering my expectation that boys still only had one
5:38
Speaker 3: hundred and forty three passing yards last week. I understand
5:41
Speaker 3: he put up three touchdowns, which was great to see
5:43
Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson find the end zone again. Boy, it was
5:46
Speaker 3: a drought. But I do think JJ McCarthy against his
5:49
Speaker 3: Ravens defense, Like Florio pointed out, they have been making
5:52
Speaker 3: adjustments on defense. They've been getting better as the weeks
5:55
Speaker 3: had progressed, and I think JJ is still wet behind
5:57
Speaker 3: the Ears still figuring things out. So I don't take
6:00
Speaker 3: this hot start that he had last week as a
6:02
Speaker 3: guy that needs to be jumped into starting lineups.
6:05
Speaker 1: I just think he's only thrown at twenty two times
6:07
Speaker 1: per game. He's yet to have one hundred and sixty
6:10
Speaker 1: passing yards. And it get granted, he's only had three
6:12
Speaker 1: starts in his entire NFL career, but he's yet to
6:15
Speaker 1: hit one hundred and sixty passing yards. The problem is
6:18
Speaker 1: because the yardage totals are low. He's got to score touchdowns,
6:23
Speaker 1: preferably rushing touchdowns, and he's got to avoid turnovers because
6:27
Speaker 1: he's not giving you enough yardage wise to avoid those
6:29
Speaker 1: minus or to mitigate those minus twos. That's the hard
6:33
Speaker 1: part I think with JJ McCarthy right now. And as
6:35
Speaker 1: you mentioned, Raven's defense has been better the last couple
6:38
Speaker 1: of weeks. So just kind of something to pay attention to.
6:41
Speaker 1: Start to running backs Florida, who do you like who
6:44
Speaker 1: do you not like? This week?
6:45
Speaker 2: It all depends on if DeAndre Swift players or not.
6:48
Speaker 2: If Swift plays, he is a must start, and I
6:50
Speaker 2: think Kyle Mcanunguy is then a flex option if Swift
6:53
Speaker 2: is out Kyle Mcanunguy is a must start in this one.
6:56
Speaker 2: I think Quinshaw Judkins is someone you should be in
6:58
Speaker 2: your lot up. The only thing that could stop Judkins's
7:01
Speaker 2: game script, and the Jets haven't had a multiscore lead
7:04
Speaker 2: since Week one. Jalen Warren has just been getting so
7:07
Speaker 2: much volume as of late that I think he is
7:10
Speaker 2: in play. David Montgomery because I think the Lions put
7:13
Speaker 2: up a lot of points against his defense. I think
7:15
Speaker 2: they have a favorable game script and he is still
7:17
Speaker 2: getting all the goal line work. And then the Patriots
7:20
Speaker 2: is kind of similar to the Bears. If ramondre Stevenson plays,
7:23
Speaker 2: I think he's in play. If not, I think Traveon
7:26
Speaker 2: Henderson is in play against the Bucks, who will have
7:28
Speaker 2: the most receiving yards to running backs. He had six
7:31
Speaker 2: targets last week. They also allow a lot of yards
7:34
Speaker 2: before contact and then some sits. Travis Etn He ran
7:37
Speaker 2: really well last week, but the Texans are a really
7:40
Speaker 2: tough matchup. Alvin Kamara, even in a favorable matchup against
7:43
Speaker 2: the Panthers, I do not see how you could just
7:46
Speaker 2: trust him right now. Jordan Mason, I'm really concerned about
7:50
Speaker 2: him getting game scripted out because when they are trailing,
7:52
Speaker 2: if they're passing a lot, it'll be Aaron Jones, Rashad White.
7:55
Speaker 2: The Patriots have been elite against the run this year,
7:58
Speaker 2: and then the Cardinals running backs. We don't know what
8:00
Speaker 2: it's going to look like. And outside of the Patriots,
8:02
Speaker 2: the Seahawks might be the best run defense in football.
8:04
Speaker 2: So a couple of things on the start side there.
8:06
Speaker 2: I know DeAndre Swift has said he's gonna be able
8:09
Speaker 2: to go. He said he said he want to go
8:11
Speaker 2: last week, and the team sort of held him out
8:13
Speaker 2: as a precaution.
8:13
Speaker 1: So play Swift, So play Swift. Although I do still
8:16
Speaker 1: think Benung guy has a role in that off it
8:17
Speaker 1: could be a flex. The other part of this, and
8:19
Speaker 1: I peek behind the curtain because I write the Sleeper's
8:21
Speaker 1: column and I put the names together on Sunday. I
8:23
Speaker 1: actually write it fairly early in the week so it's
8:25
Speaker 1: up and ready for Thursday. And I looked so hard
8:27
Speaker 1: at that Patriots running back back and I'm like, I
8:30
Speaker 1: don't know who's playing right because I'm like, I like,
8:33
Speaker 1: I like whoever is going to start, Especially because the
8:35
Speaker 1: Bucks have been bad against pass catching running backs. It
8:37
Speaker 1: was hard for me to pick one because on Tuesday,
8:39
Speaker 1: when I'm writing it, we had zero ideas who's going
8:42
Speaker 1: to be played.
8:43
Speaker 2: That's why this week I included both, and I'm like,
8:45
Speaker 2: kind of whichever one is the starter, you play exactly.
8:48
Speaker 2: I didn't know who it was going to be when
8:50
Speaker 2: I wrote it.
8:51
Speaker 1: Jalen Warren though Lakwan I have some teams with Jaalen Warren.
8:55
Speaker 1: I do have one or two teams with Kenneth Gainwell,
8:57
Speaker 1: and I've been trying to just force him into lineups
8:59
Speaker 1: because my situa has been poor. Your feelings on Jalen
9:02
Speaker 1: Warren against the Chargers this week, I liked it.
9:05
Speaker 3: I want to echo being that last episode we've talked
9:08
Speaker 3: about you know our sleepers. He is my snore likes.
9:10
Speaker 3: This week, I'm expecting big numbers from him against this
9:13
Speaker 3: Chargers defense where their weak point is on that outside
9:16
Speaker 3: of zone run, and we know Arthur Smith the Fantasy
9:18
Speaker 3: Streets boogey Man loves running that outside zone run. And
9:21
Speaker 3: looking at this Chargers defense overall against running backs, they're
9:24
Speaker 3: allowing the six most explosive runs to the running back
9:27
Speaker 3: position this season at the second highest rate. Also, so
9:30
Speaker 3: they're allowing a bunch of explosive plays where Jalen Warren
9:33
Speaker 3: has beginning increased workload as the weeks have progressed. It
9:36
Speaker 3: and we're looking at a guy right now that can
9:38
Speaker 3: be able to put up a twenty burger.
9:40
Speaker 1: This week, which will be a fantasy high for my boy.
9:42
Speaker 3: So I'm locking him in, not soft seating him, locking
9:46
Speaker 3: him all the way in this week.
9:47
Speaker 1: All right, So we are in big time on Jalen Warren.
9:52
Speaker 1: I'm on the other side Jordan Mason, and I mean again,
9:55
Speaker 1: Florida is sort of the same thing, right with that
9:57
Speaker 1: Ravens Vikings matchup, just kind of it's a hard one
10:01
Speaker 1: to kind of figure out a little bit. Lakwan, you've
10:05
Speaker 1: been a big Jordan Mason guy. Yeah. I put him
10:10
Speaker 1: in as a sleeper potential candidate. I don't feel great
10:13
Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, you can. You either validate or deny
10:17
Speaker 1: my my concerns. No, I cannot.
10:19
Speaker 3: I mean, given with the opportunity to getting by Aaron Jones,
10:23
Speaker 3: and I feel like now we're looking at a guy
10:25
Speaker 3: that's getting less than five Fantasy points in the last
10:28
Speaker 3: two games, and Aaron Jones he was crazy efficient last game.
10:31
Speaker 3: I don't know if that was just like one of
10:33
Speaker 3: those games that he had his freaking space jam powers
10:37
Speaker 3: giving back to him being so efficient. But I don't
10:39
Speaker 3: think that's sustainable. But I do think Jordan Mason's gonna
10:42
Speaker 3: have to deal with Aaron Jones in front of him
10:44
Speaker 3: when it comes to those valuable touches because we know
10:46
Speaker 3: Aaron Jones is still going to be able to go
10:48
Speaker 3: out of that backfield and participate in the passing game.
10:50
Speaker 3: That's not really Jordan Mason's game. And even given when
10:53
Speaker 3: Aaron Jones was out, we didn't really get RB one
10:56
Speaker 3: type of numbers consistently from Jordan Mason. So I'm a
10:59
Speaker 3: little worried about the actual production out of Jordan Mason,
11:02
Speaker 3: the fantasy output we're going to be getting now that
11:04
Speaker 3: Aaron Jones is back. And we also have to remember
11:06
Speaker 3: this Viking Zoe line has not been great for these
11:09
Speaker 3: running backs at all. So this is a matchup this
11:11
Speaker 3: week I'm looking to get away from just like how
11:13
Speaker 3: Florio has them, but that big red Ax as a
11:16
Speaker 3: sit this week.
11:17
Speaker 1: We had one big game out of Jordan Mason when
11:19
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones was gone, and after that it's been just
11:22
Speaker 1: kind of mid the rest of the way. I don't
11:25
Speaker 1: think Aaron Jones has been great either this year. No,
11:29
Speaker 1: he's just the guy getting the volume. He's the guy
11:31
Speaker 1: getting the first crack at things.
11:33
Speaker 2: It sounds weird, but if Lamar wasn't playing, I'd be
11:36
Speaker 2: more in on Jordan Mason. But we know the Ravens
11:38
Speaker 2: are gonna put up points, and then when if the
11:41
Speaker 2: Vikings are in ketchup mode, that's when Jones comes in.
11:44
Speaker 2: In my opinion, Yeah, I don't know.
11:45
Speaker 1: It's just like its generally unsatisfying situation. I think all
11:49
Speaker 1: the way around, he's on the drop watch. That's not great.
11:54
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get back to a little more starts
11:56
Speaker 1: and sits in just a bit, But want to take
11:58
Speaker 1: a look at what's going on. You're in week ten
12:01
Speaker 1: as we look at the Sunday night contest between the
12:05
Speaker 1: Steelers and the Chargers that'll be played right next door
12:08
Speaker 1: to where we are here at Sofi Stadium, in this
12:11
Speaker 1: court to the friends at Caesars Sports Book, the first
12:14
Speaker 1: to score odds combining Vidal has the first odds, the
12:17
Speaker 1: best odds, I should say, followed by Jalen Warren, DK Metcalf,
12:21
Speaker 1: then a couple of Chargers receivers with Ladd McConkie and
12:24
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen. For when you look at this, let's you
12:28
Speaker 1: see McConkie and Allen down there with the odds to score.
12:31
Speaker 1: No Quinton Johnston. But if you were going to rank
12:34
Speaker 1: the Chargers receivers this week, what order would you put
12:36
Speaker 1: them in?
12:37
Speaker 2: Aladd is one for me because he's been getting the
12:39
Speaker 2: most consistent volume and being the most productive consistently week
12:43
Speaker 2: to week the last five weeks plus. The Steelers play
12:46
Speaker 2: man at an above average rate, and LADDI McConkie thrives
12:49
Speaker 2: against man coverage. Surprisingly enough, though, I think number two
12:53
Speaker 2: this week is Quintin Johnston because the Steelers have struggled
12:56
Speaker 2: against out wide wide receivers and they have struggled down
12:59
Speaker 2: for field against the deep ball with wide receivers. That
13:03
Speaker 2: is Quinton Johnson's role in this offense. So I think
13:07
Speaker 2: he's always a boomer bus option right now. But Keenan
13:10
Speaker 2: has kind of just been off floor. I think he
13:12
Speaker 2: is a safer play, but I would take the upside
13:15
Speaker 2: swing on Quentin Johnson.
13:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think if you were Look, if I'm putting
13:18
Speaker 1: together at DFS lineup, I'm gonna put Quint Johnston in
13:20
Speaker 1: there just because you know, maybe he pops a couple
13:23
Speaker 1: of big ones and he scores a touchdown for that one.
13:26
Speaker 1: So when we come back, we'll take a look at
13:28
Speaker 1: Monday Night Football. Plus we got starts and sits for
13:31
Speaker 1: wide receivers and tight ends and some bolt predictions for
13:34
Speaker 1: Week ten. That's all coming up here on the NFL
13:36
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Show. Continuing on with the Week ten previews
13:43
Speaker 1: Monday Night Football. The Eagles had the green blay Bay
13:46
Speaker 1: Green Bay. I can say that to take on the
13:49
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers. You can see that of course on ESPN,
13:52
Speaker 1: ABC and ESPN Deportes in some platforms. H. Meanwhile, Lakwan
13:59
Speaker 1: AJ Brown vibes he didn't get traded. He's been sort
14:02
Speaker 1: of up and down all year long. How we feeling
14:04
Speaker 1: about him against Green Bay?
14:07
Speaker 3: Hey vibe Cheker checking in on AJ Brown and I
14:10
Speaker 3: understand this. The Eagles could be coming out of this
14:12
Speaker 3: by as a different team. I say that now because
14:15
Speaker 3: Saquon Barkley has been reported banged up, So this could
14:18
Speaker 3: be a focal point where they have to get the
14:20
Speaker 3: passing game going if they're not going to be able
14:22
Speaker 3: to roll out a full healthy Saquon Barkley, and we
14:25
Speaker 3: see these clips. It's been an up and down year,
14:27
Speaker 3: but AJ Brown is still AJ Brown. He is still
14:30
Speaker 3: Swole Batman. He's still one of the most physical downfield
14:33
Speaker 3: wide receivers that's going up against his Packers defense that
14:36
Speaker 3: they're gonna be challenged. They're gonna be one of those
14:38
Speaker 3: defenses that are going to have to keep their eye
14:40
Speaker 3: on swoll Batman and skinny Batman. So I do think
14:43
Speaker 3: this team coming out of the by they're going to
14:45
Speaker 3: readjust like how they always do. They adapt and kill
14:48
Speaker 3: all narratives that we always put on these Eagles teams.
14:51
Speaker 1: AJ Brown's gonna either get you like one hundred and
14:53
Speaker 1: fifteen yards in a touchdown or he'll get you like
14:56
Speaker 1: twenty seven.
14:57
Speaker 2: Like.
14:58
Speaker 1: That's kind of how it's been me as somebody who
15:00
Speaker 1: drafted probably more AJ Brown than he's comfortable with. That's
15:03
Speaker 1: how it's amazing about to say that might have been
15:06
Speaker 1: all of us this summer.
15:09
Speaker 2: I think we're high on.
15:10
Speaker 1: He's so undervalued. Why is it going so late right now?
15:14
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, maybe maybe people knew all right. Anyway,
15:17
Speaker 1: speaking of wide receiver, let's get back to the starts
15:19
Speaker 1: and sits Florio your starts and sits at the wide
15:21
Speaker 1: opposition as acts.
15:23
Speaker 2: By you guys. On Monday, you said n Nego Collins not
15:25
Speaker 2: too obvious this week, so I included an ego Collins
15:28
Speaker 2: who goes off every time he plays the Jaguars already
15:31
Speaker 2: spoke about Lad McConkey. I think Roma Dunesa has a
15:34
Speaker 2: bounce back week. I think DJ Moore's been more involved
15:37
Speaker 2: as of late. So both of them are in play
15:39
Speaker 2: in a good matchup. Khalil Shakir has a very safe
15:42
Speaker 2: floor and just a history of success in this matchup.
15:45
Speaker 2: And then Wando Robinson getting a ton of volume and
15:48
Speaker 2: it is a good matchup against the Bears. Some spicy
15:52
Speaker 2: sits DK Metcalf because if you covered up his name,
15:56
Speaker 2: he is not living up to the hype. He's averaging
15:59
Speaker 2: less than six targets per game career low in air yards.
16:02
Speaker 2: That one long catch and run he had in Dublin
16:05
Speaker 2: is like fifteen percent of his Fantasy points on the year.
16:08
Speaker 2: Then I have chrys Olave who won didn't show the
16:12
Speaker 2: best chemistry with Tyler Schuck. The Panthers are a really
16:15
Speaker 2: tough match with They're in the bottom five and Fantasy
16:16
Speaker 2: points allowed to receivers. Deebo. He's been struggling with Marcus
16:21
Speaker 2: Mariota this year. Just one of his three good one
16:24
Speaker 2: game out of three have been good for him in
16:26
Speaker 2: Fantasy Jordan Addison because like you were saying, Marcus, there's
16:29
Speaker 2: not a lot of yards there with JJ McCarthy, so
16:31
Speaker 2: you're really hoping for a touchdown. And then Jacoby Myers,
16:34
Speaker 2: I know, he got traded. I literally had him as
16:36
Speaker 2: a sit with the Raiders, and when he got traded,
16:38
Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, I'm gonna keep Jacoby Myers in
16:40
Speaker 2: as he sit.
16:41
Speaker 1: I think the only thing that helps Jacoby Myers potentially
16:43
Speaker 1: is volume, just because Travis Hunter is hurt and Brian
16:46
Speaker 1: Thomas Junior, I know, did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday,
16:49
Speaker 1: and it doesn't look like so Volume might win, but
16:52
Speaker 1: the matchup is bad for Jacoby Myers. I'm we talk
16:57
Speaker 1: about the Squeaky Wheel game, right when when wide receives
17:00
Speaker 1: complain and then they get a whole bunch of targets,
17:02
Speaker 1: does that count if a player's dad goes on social
17:05
Speaker 1: media and complaints asking for Romo Dunza.
17:09
Speaker 3: Listen, that is one of the most craziest things that
17:12
Speaker 3: we have now with the Internet, that our fathers, our
17:15
Speaker 3: parents can get on the Internet and voice their opinions,
17:18
Speaker 3: because like I've know my times of playing soccer at
17:21
Speaker 3: Hilton High West, my mom was on the sideline and
17:23
Speaker 3: had some thoughts about the coach in my playing time
17:26
Speaker 3: and actual ability in the middle of the field, but
17:28
Speaker 3: she didn't go on the internet voice her opinions. But
17:30
Speaker 3: Roma Dunza having zero catches last week, I would be
17:33
Speaker 3: that parent crashing out, like what is happening? Why does
17:36
Speaker 3: the quarterback have more catches than my son? That does
17:40
Speaker 3: not make sense, especially when it's coming from the guy
17:42
Speaker 3: that's supposed to be throwing in the ball. But when
17:44
Speaker 3: I look at this man, there has to be a
17:46
Speaker 3: bounce back week for Adonza. Ben Johnson has to see that.
17:49
Speaker 3: To me, he has to see Roma Doonsay with three
17:52
Speaker 3: targets and zero catches last week and be like, no,
17:54
Speaker 3: this cannot happen again. But the good thing is that
17:57
Speaker 3: we're seeing more of DJ Moore last week was kind
18:00
Speaker 3: of eye popping of like how many times he's being
18:03
Speaker 3: targeted on each of his routes, making his routes valuable
18:06
Speaker 3: as a guy that you can now rely on as
18:08
Speaker 3: a flex play at that very least. So I do
18:11
Speaker 3: like this week for a bounce back and maybe even
18:13
Speaker 3: more building on that resume of being trusted for DJ
18:16
Speaker 3: Moore as we approach some trade deadlines and some fantasy
18:19
Speaker 3: leagues and the playoffs will be here before we know it.
18:22
Speaker 1: I mean, look, key, We've talked about it. DJ Moore
18:24
Speaker 1: has been one of the bigger disappointments in fantasy football
18:27
Speaker 1: this year.
18:28
Speaker 2: Some signs of life the last two games at least,
18:30
Speaker 2: that has kind of been nice.
18:31
Speaker 1: Yeah. On the other side, let's go down to New
18:35
Speaker 1: Orleans LQ and or should she got got traded to Seattle?
18:40
Speaker 1: Tyler Shuck is now the quarterback. I know Chris o'lavey
18:44
Speaker 1: was starting to pop his head out of the satchel
18:45
Speaker 1: of discontent. I would imagine he is sinking toward the
18:48
Speaker 1: bottom again.
18:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, he went back in and say, no, what I
18:52
Speaker 3: forgot some I forgot I forgot the lot more. But
18:54
Speaker 3: that that has been an issue, you know that I
18:57
Speaker 3: was really worried about with Tyler Shuck coming in with Spencer.
19:00
Speaker 3: If you watch some of his snaps in his drawbacks,
19:02
Speaker 3: he's giving his receiver chances to make the big plays.
19:05
Speaker 3: Tyler Shuck's coming in very conservative kind of off looking
19:08
Speaker 3: his number one wide receiver. You don't have Rashietshi there anymore.
19:12
Speaker 3: So I think Chris o' lobby's nosedive is not really
19:15
Speaker 3: anything of surprise, being that they made a quarterback change
19:18
Speaker 3: and the Panthers defense man, you better put some respect
19:21
Speaker 3: on their name. They have been a defense that you
19:23
Speaker 3: have to fear on the back end of this secondary.
19:26
Speaker 3: So I do think Chris o' lobby is a risky
19:28
Speaker 3: start this week. So obviously, with Tyler Schuck being the
19:31
Speaker 3: starting quarterback for the rest of the week, I don't
19:33
Speaker 3: really feel optimistic about this New Orleans offense moving forward
19:36
Speaker 3: for the rest of the fantasy season.
19:38
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, at least occasionally you get Spencer Raller
19:41
Speaker 1: taking some shots downfield. I want to see more of
19:43
Speaker 1: that out of Tyler's Shuck. Yeah, maybe it happens. I'm
19:48
Speaker 1: gonna let Chris o' lobby be somebody else's headache at
19:50
Speaker 1: this point last, but not at least on the start
19:53
Speaker 1: sit front. The tight ends, we know the bar is
19:56
Speaker 1: low for tight ends success. Who do you like? Who
19:58
Speaker 1: do you not like?
20:00
Speaker 2: Gatz and everyone should be starting him by now, except
20:02
Speaker 2: for his dad. O'klan has continued to show us that.
20:06
Speaker 1: Has led to good things for his son in fantasy.
20:09
Speaker 2: Dawnkin Kate is the first Bills tight end with multiple
20:12
Speaker 2: one hundred yard games in the same season in like
20:14
Speaker 2: fifty years, and he has a history of success against
20:17
Speaker 2: the Dolphins. Kyle Pitts. I think Kyle Pitts has become
20:21
Speaker 2: fantasy relevant again. He's the leading target getter for the
20:24
Speaker 2: Falcons in the last three games combined. Favoral matchup against
20:27
Speaker 2: the Colts Colson Lovelin. I think the hope is that
20:30
Speaker 2: last week was a sign of things to come and
20:32
Speaker 2: he gets more opportunity. And then Dalton Schultz to me
20:35
Speaker 2: is my favorite streaming tight end in a week where
20:38
Speaker 2: there's good streaming tight end options. I wrote about some
20:40
Speaker 2: streamers in the article as well, if you want to
20:42
Speaker 2: go check that out. And then the six David and Joku.
20:45
Speaker 2: I think Carold Fanon Junior has surpassed him as the
20:47
Speaker 2: tight end won there. Dj Hockinson a theme I'm trying
20:51
Speaker 2: to avoid this trap that I think it is for
20:53
Speaker 2: the Vikings. Mason Taylor, He's been volume dependent, but it
20:57
Speaker 2: looks like Garat Wilson will be back now. Tough match
21:00
Speaker 2: against the Browns defense and then Luke Musgrave. I get
21:03
Speaker 2: it if you lost Tucker Kraft and you picked him up,
21:05
Speaker 2: but I want to see it first, and especially not
21:07
Speaker 2: in this matchuphere. The Eagles have allowed the third few
21:09
Speaker 2: is fantasy points to tight ends.
21:11
Speaker 1: If you want a pulse check on the state of
21:13
Speaker 1: tight end, Kyle Pitts is averaging forty seven yards per game.
21:17
Speaker 1: He hasn't had a game with eighty receiving yards. He
21:20
Speaker 1: has one touchdown all year. He's the tight end twelve.
21:24
Speaker 1: That's where nice, That's what fantasy tight end is like.
21:28
Speaker 1: But I'm a Colston Loveland real quick Lakwan because had
21:32
Speaker 1: the big breakout game last week. Cole Kamett is injured
21:35
Speaker 1: and start to phase out of the offense. Are we
21:37
Speaker 1: getting to a point where we start talking about Cole
21:39
Speaker 1: Commett more regularly in this Bears attack?
21:43
Speaker 3: I think so, And like, honestly, again it's the Bengals,
21:46
Speaker 3: I get it. What we're really looking at is the
21:48
Speaker 3: opportunities that are being strapped to Colston Loveland in these
21:51
Speaker 3: last two games. Like I get nine times out of
21:54
Speaker 3: ten that game winning touchdown. Most defenses are going to
21:56
Speaker 3: make that tackle. But I'm paying attention to the routes.
21:59
Speaker 3: Sixty routes and back to back games thirty routes, thirty routes,
22:02
Speaker 3: and these are all season highs for him, So he's
22:04
Speaker 3: getting on the field. Cole Kmet has been injured for
22:07
Speaker 3: some time. I been banged up these last couple of
22:09
Speaker 3: weeks with a concussion just out of the way, and
22:11
Speaker 3: for the rest of the season, I don't see Cole
22:13
Speaker 3: Komet getting much involved in this offense where you have
22:17
Speaker 3: Coleston Loveland blossoming into this rookie tight end that a
22:20
Speaker 3: lot of folks were really depending on to hit the
22:22
Speaker 3: ground running in the beginning of the season. But like
22:24
Speaker 3: Marcus how You pointed out on yesterday's episode, he started
22:27
Speaker 3: the season banged up. A lot of people forget about that.
22:30
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he was not healthy coming into the year.
22:32
Speaker 1: I think was not healthy really through his final year
22:34
Speaker 1: in college too. So I'm maybe finally starting to get right.
22:38
Speaker 1: And look, we've talked about this, you get that by
22:40
Speaker 1: week rookie bump, they finally get a chance to sort
22:43
Speaker 1: of relax and rest and kind of figure things out.
22:45
Speaker 1: A little bit, so maybe all this is working in
22:47
Speaker 1: Loveland's favor. On the other side, speaking of your rookie
22:50
Speaker 1: tight ends, ok we've been trying to make Mason Taylor
22:53
Speaker 1: a thing for a while. It's been, uh, how were
22:57
Speaker 1: we feeling about it? As the Browns right now?
23:00
Speaker 2: That's basically the take right there.
23:02
Speaker 3: It's has been like, I really don't understand, you know,
23:06
Speaker 3: the need and want to have Mason Taylor in starting lineups,
23:09
Speaker 3: like this is still a Jets offense that doesn't really
23:12
Speaker 3: understand their identity of it. And I think Justin Fields
23:15
Speaker 3: were strapping to Mason Taylor as a guy that can
23:17
Speaker 3: elevate the tight end position like he's had in the
23:19
Speaker 3: past with his time in Chicago. But I look at
23:22
Speaker 3: this as he is still a project to trust in
23:25
Speaker 3: starting lineups. But real quickly, I want to make a
23:27
Speaker 3: note to another sit that Florio has. It's TJ Hockinson. Okay, now,
23:31
Speaker 3: Ronde Gaskins is a start for Florio this week. But
23:34
Speaker 3: listen to this starting sit podcast or this show right here,
23:38
Speaker 3: Ronde Gaskin. If you've senior you are listening, continue on
23:41
Speaker 3: starting TJ Howkinson. Okay, that's the other tight end that
23:44
Speaker 3: he is starting instead of his son right now, So
23:47
Speaker 3: go ahead and put TJ. Hawkson back into your starting
23:49
Speaker 3: lineup and put your son right back on that bench
23:51
Speaker 3: so we can all thrive and prosper for the rest
23:53
Speaker 3: of the fantasy seasons.
23:54
Speaker 1: Take one for the team. You got to help us
23:56
Speaker 1: all out. Sometimes the yeah man, the needs of a
23:58
Speaker 1: mini outweigh the needs of the one, So help us
24:01
Speaker 1: out with that. So there you go. Those are the
24:03

24:40
Speaker 1: starts off get a little bit spicy all right now.
24:43
Speaker 3: A lot of the rookie tight end talk have been
24:47
Speaker 3: Colston Love in these last two weeks, but the love
24:49
Speaker 3: is going to Tyler Warren and my bolt take against
24:52
Speaker 3: one of his tough of battles all season long, against
24:54
Speaker 3: the Falcons, who are allowing three fantasy points for a
24:57
Speaker 3: game to the tight end position. I got Tyler Warren
24:59
Speaker 3: putting up season high twenty five plus fantasy points in
25:03
Speaker 3: this matchup overseas. I understand that the matchup and all
25:06
Speaker 3: the odds are against him, but Tyler Warren has something
25:08
Speaker 3: to say about this tight end rookie love that's been
25:11
Speaker 3: going to Loveland theast couple of days.
25:13
Speaker 1: I mean, he has been the tight end of record
25:15
Speaker 1: from the rookie class so far this season. Florio, you're
25:18
Speaker 1: a hot take for the week. I'm going with Jared Goff.
25:21
Speaker 2: I was talking about it earlier that right now it
25:24
Speaker 2: is his career low touchdown rate. I think regression hits
25:28
Speaker 2: and its name is the Commanders. So for me, I
25:31
Speaker 2: think Jared Goff is going to throw five touchdowns this
25:35
Speaker 2: week going up against the Commanders, who've allowed the fourth
25:38
Speaker 2: most touchdown passes on the year. And the most in
25:41
Speaker 2: the last month. Speed has killed them. The Lions have
25:44
Speaker 2: a lot of speed, so you have usually regression hits
25:47
Speaker 2: kind of all at once. This feels to me like a.
25:50
Speaker 1: Regression game for golf. I'm particularly big on Jared Goff
25:53
Speaker 1: this week. I'm also particularly big on Rashid s going
25:57
Speaker 1: from New Orleans to Seattle. I will admit this is
25:59
Speaker 1: heavily vibes based, but I do think Rashi Chhahed scores
26:03
Speaker 1: two touchdowns in his Seattle debut. If you want a
26:06
Speaker 1: little bit of stats for it, it is a situation
26:08
Speaker 1: where you got Sam Darnold, who's been one of the
26:11
Speaker 1: best deep ball throwers in the league this year. He
26:14
Speaker 1: has the highest completion percentage over expectation on deep balls
26:17
Speaker 1: this year over any other NFL starting quarterback. You got
26:21
Speaker 1: Rashichi Heed, who's one of the best deep ball trackers
26:23
Speaker 1: in the league. That seems like a match made in
26:25
Speaker 1: fantasy heaven. Plus, if you're the Seahawks, why not announce
26:30
Speaker 1: your presence to the rest of the league by saying
26:33
Speaker 1: you got another weapon to compliment Jackson Smith in JIGBA.
26:36
Speaker 1: There so big game coming forward Rashid Shaheed this week
26:40
Speaker 1: in the meantime for us, that is it. We are done.
26:43
Speaker 1: We appreciate you hanging out with the NFL Fantasy Football show.
26:46
Speaker 1: You know the drill. Tell two friends to tell two
26:47
Speaker 1: friends rate review and remember, hope to reach an age
26:50
Speaker 1: where your back goes out more than you do. Be safe,
26:52
Speaker 1: take care of yourselves. Enjoy Week ten everybody, and we'll
26:55
Speaker 1: talk to you again on Monday. Don't Bob, don't no
