Playoffs! PLAYOFFS! Oldman Plays CFL Weekly Fantasy S03 E18 · The CFL Outsiders

• 0:03
  Hey kids, welcome back to another episode
• 0:06
  of Old Man. Please see available weekly
• 0:09
  fantasy. Ha ha yes, feeling good in
• 0:12
  the playoffs and in a not bad
• 0:15
  spot. 16 teams in the league, 8
• 0:18
  makes the playoffs. I'm #4 so.
• 0:22
  I just in that top quarter, I don't
• 0:25
  know. We'll see how it works out. I
• 0:28
  got 139.8 points last week. We were all
• 0:30
  playing against a league average, which
• 0:33
  is I think 108. So I came through
• 0:35
  with another win, ended up 10 and seven,
• 0:38
  third overall in the league scoring. And
• 0:41
  this week it's at CFL Outsiders Smackdown
• 0:43
  because in our playoff round I get MJ.
• 0:46
  MJ and the kid from. Our
• 0:49
  very own flagship show, the CFL
• 0:50
  Outsiders, if you haven't checked it out
• 0:52
  yet. Do please it drops on
• 0:55
  Wednesdays. Available YouTube podcatchers
• 0:56
  wherever you found this. And please,
• 0:59
  if you haven't subscribed yet,
• 1:01
  subscribed. We're loving the growth we're
• 1:02
  getting. It certainly helps out. Nothing
• 1:04
  monetary about this. You're not giving
• 1:06
  away any cash to us. CFL podcasts aren't
• 1:09
  big enough to make cash, but we sure love
• 1:11
  the support and getting our our views out
• 1:14
  there to people. They seem to enjoy them.
• 1:16
  So thank you with for that.
• 1:20
  Like I said, into the playoffs so.
• 1:23
  Going to be tougher every week now. This
• 1:25
  is the best of the best at MJ's. Very
• 1:28
  good. She wasn't far behind me in the the
• 1:30
  point standing and that's the only reason
• 1:32
  I'm four and she's 5. We were both 10 and
• 1:35
  seven and I think there was for like 1819
• 1:37
  hundred points wherever we're at right
• 1:39
  now, there was like a 5 point difference
• 1:41
  so. So it should be tough.
• 1:46
  Looking at the games this week and what
• 1:48
  are we going to do? Trying to
• 1:51
  unfortunately defeat MJ and the kid and.
• 1:55
  Not nastiness, just competitive. The
• 1:57
  first game Miss Hamilton going into
• 1:59
  Ottawa and. What do we got here?
• 2:02
  Well, defences maybe, because neither of
• 2:03
  these offences do well and. Cross likes
• 2:06
  to throw the ball away. MBT has been
• 2:08
  known to untimes and he started strong.
• 2:11
  Looked weaker last week and given past
• 2:13
  histories I think it might be worse so.
• 2:16
  Either defence. Hamilton is a strong
• 2:18
  defence. I think I'd maybe lean towards
• 2:20
  them but Ottawa might also pick off some.
• 2:23
  Don't know. They're going to get a lot of
• 2:26
  sacks though. Quarterbacks probably stay
• 2:28
  away from both of them. Like I said, MBT
• 2:31
  started strong but trending downward and
• 2:33
  Frost is well. You might get a little
• 2:35
  bunch of garbage time points, but I don't
• 2:37
  think so. Running backs, well, I've
• 2:40
  come to the conclusion, reminded myself,
• 2:42
  relearned however you want to say it,
• 2:44
  that a running back, unless they get
• 2:47
  touchdowns or a bunch of passes out of
• 2:49
  the backfield, just carrying the ball
• 2:52
  isn't enough. Was a reminder of
• 2:55
  that. Last week. I finally broke down and
• 2:57
  took Brady, hoping that Tommy Condell
• 2:59
  would play him a bunch. And he did, and
• 3:01
  he got 138 yards on something like 16
• 3:03
  carries, I think. So great. But I believe
• 3:06
  there was maybe 1 pass and he ended up
• 3:09
  with like 14 points and I paid 14K for
• 3:11
  him so not worth it. So I'm going to
• 3:14
  either go for ones that look like they
• 3:16
  can get the touchdowns or receiving yards
• 3:18
  or worst case sort of the cheapest one
• 3:20
  that can get me almost any points at all.
• 3:23
  And that might be Adeboye out of
• 3:26
  Ottawa. Other than that, I don't think
• 3:29
  so. Larry Roundtree had the one big round
• 3:31
  against Edmonton, but he hasn't done much
• 3:32
  else. And receivers, well, there's a
• 3:35
  few here. White for Ottawa has certainly
• 3:38
  picked up in the last two games. Hardy
• 3:40
  has been consistent all the way through.
• 3:43
  I think I'd give him a look. Pimbleton,
• 3:46
  maybe, although he spends a lot of his
• 3:49
  energy on returns. And on the other side
• 3:51
  of the ball, well, I have been able to
• 3:54
  find the Hamilton Tigers hat's depth
• 3:55
  chart. There are a bunch of them that
• 3:57
  went to the CFL changed web sites. I just
• 3:59
  can't find any more. I've gotten a few of
• 4:02
  them through three down, but there's one
• 4:04
  or two like Hamilton that I just don't
• 4:06
  know. So. Will Wheatfeld be playing? I
• 4:08
  don't know if he is. Maybe, maybe Myron
• 4:10
  Mitchell, but that's about it. The
• 4:13
  next game. Tonight is Calgary coming
• 4:16
  into Saskatchewan, and this one has some
• 4:19
  potential in it.
• 4:22
  BA has been playing well, putting up a
• 4:25
  lot of points, but will he against that
• 4:27
  Saskatchewan defence? I don't think so. I
• 4:29
  think we see a few sacks, I think we see
• 4:31
  an interception and he gets a little bit
• 4:33
  rattled. So the Saskatchewan D is worth
• 4:35
  looking at Calgary. They have been
• 4:38
  underperforming and that back end of
• 4:40
  their defensive backfield just does not
• 4:42
  seem to be. Playing up to snuff,
• 4:44
  so I'd stay away from there. Quarterbacks
• 4:47
  again, VA. Fairly streaky
• 4:49
  and hard to say with that Saskatchewan
• 4:52
  defence how strong they'll be. They do
• 4:54
  have Edward back as a backup to sales
• 4:57
  at the. Short-side halfback. They've
• 5:00
  still got Burger, Sorry, they still have
• 5:03
  Burgess Junior over on the corner there
• 5:05
  and Belle the rookie and on the
• 5:08
  other corner that. Didn't perform as
• 5:11
  well against BC last week. They gave up
• 5:14
  a couple of deep balls like people get
• 5:16
  behind coverage so. Might want
• 5:19
  to. Might want to give BA
• 5:22
  a chance but I think that they will be
• 5:24
  improved this week and I don't see that
• 5:26
  happening again. So it is a possibility
• 5:28
  but I don't. Don't know that he's a
• 5:31
  lock for me. Harris on the
• 5:34
  other side is a real is a real strong
• 5:36
  consideration for me. I don't like I
• 5:38
  said, I don't have a lot of faith in that
• 5:41
  Calgary back end. I think with a couple
• 5:44
  of good receivers in now, he'll carve
• 5:46
  them up a fair bit and I think we'll see
• 5:49
  uh. Some scoring there,
• 5:51
  he may be worth while.
• 5:54
  Running backs Mac Mahone has been very
• 5:56
  good the last couple of weeks, but that
• 5:59
  Saskatchewan front is very strong against
• 6:01
  the red side. Stay away from him and AJ.
• 6:04
  I'd consider him, but again, he's mostly
• 6:06
  going to get carries and hasn't been
• 6:08
  getting touched yet so I'm staying away
• 6:10
  from there. And then the receivers, while
• 6:13
  you've got Keyshawn Johnson for
• 6:15
  Saskatchewan, Keon Schaefer, Baker are
• 6:16
  both good. If you're looking for a lower
• 6:19
  priced 1, you might want to consider Weeb
• 6:22
  or Jette. They're both fairly cheap and
• 6:24
  at a good price. Again, I'm staying away
• 6:27
  from Dell Duncan Busby with KSB back in
• 6:30
  I don't see him getting a lot.
• 6:33
  And on the other side for Calgary,
• 6:35
  well, Philpott's always good. Brooks is
• 6:38
  good. Other than that, I don't. It's hard
• 6:40
  to say who will go off so. Those are what
• 6:43
  I'm looking at for those games. Next
• 6:45
  day we start with BC out in
• 6:48
  Toronto and that looks like it could
• 6:50
  be an interesting 1. Kelly isn't playing.
• 6:54
  So. What will the BC defence
• 6:57
  do to Arbuckle? I've had to admit lately
• 6:59
  that BDT defence has gotten better but
• 7:01
  they're still not getting a lot of
• 7:03
  turnovers and can they put pressure on
• 7:04
  them? Will Betts get home or not? I do
• 7:07
  not know. You see, defence might be a
• 7:09
  thought. I don't think I'd go with the
• 7:11
  Argos one up against Nathan, although the
• 7:13
  Argos play very well at home. So.
• 7:16
  There's a possibility. Quarterbacks,
• 7:17
  Nathan, I think is a solid choice.
• 7:20
  Again, he's showing he's going to score
• 7:23
  points every week. So you want to
• 7:25
  go there. Arbuckle, he's cheaper. But do
• 7:28
  you have a running back or a receiver
• 7:30
  that you think is going to do so good?
• 7:33
  You can make them the captain and double
• 7:35
  up? I don't. So there's that. Barbass is
• 7:37
  short yardage quarterback. He'll get runs
• 7:39
  against Toronto. They akin they do give
• 7:40
  up yardage on the ground. He'll probably
• 7:42
  get a couple from the 1 yard line at
• 7:45
  least. So I think he's a lock. You got to
• 7:47
  put him in on the other side. BC has been
• 7:50
  very good against the run despite the
• 7:52
  fact they gave up like 60 or 70 to AJ
• 7:54
  last week. They're not going to give that
• 7:57
  up I don't think. To Toronto and
• 7:59
  Toronto's all over the place with their
• 8:01
  running backs too. We don't know who
• 8:03
  they're using where, so I'd stay away
• 8:05
  from Toronto running backs. And then
• 8:07
  receivers while BC Katoi. Looks
• 8:10
  good. He's been getting a lot of action.
• 8:13
  He's I think 11 K but I believe he'll get
• 8:15
  more than. 15 points which
• 8:18
  you know. Four or five catches
• 8:21
  for 50 yards get some to 10 points and
• 8:24
  I think he'll get better than that.
• 8:26
  Could see him going over 100. Other
• 8:29
  than that, I'm not sure.
• 8:32
  Hatcher Macinnis Maybe.
• 8:35
  Maybe. And on the other
• 8:38
  side of the ball, Unger is always a good
• 8:40
  choice, gets a lot of targets and a lot
• 8:42
  of catches, the odd touchdown. Coxey
• 8:45
  is your big number guy, of course, and.
• 8:49
  And that pokes back in. But he hasn't
• 8:52
  shined much. Mattel has been doing some
• 8:54
  stuff well, actually an even comment on
• 8:56
  that team has been not bad so.
• 8:59
  Lots to choose from there. And
• 9:02
  the last game is another Eastern one,
• 9:04
  strangely enough, for a Sunday night,
• 9:06
  7:00 in Montreal. Winnipeg coming into
• 9:08
  Montreal well. Again, defences. Winnipeg
• 9:11
  defence has been better.
• 9:14
  That they're not taking the ball away a
• 9:16
  lot and I don't see a lot of sacks. I
• 9:19
  don't think I'd go that way. Montreal's
• 9:21
  been good and they're going up against
• 9:23
  Drew Brown, who's been known to get
• 9:25
  flustered and have trouble reading
• 9:27
  defences. They're expensive. If you want
• 9:28
  to spend the money there, maybe they, but
• 9:31
  they are expensive.
• 9:33
  Quarterbacks. Well, Drew, I
• 9:35
  don't think so.
• 9:38
  I just cannot see that, him getting a lot
• 9:41
  against that Noel Thorpe defence. I don't
• 9:43
  think he's got the experience. I don't
• 9:45
  think it's it's doable on the other side.
• 9:49
  Davis Alexander, well, he's usually a
• 9:50
  lock. He's very good. Winnipeg plays that
• 9:53
  match defence. It is good at limiting
• 9:55
  long passing and Montreal will have to
• 9:57
  work for everything they do. Of a feeling
• 9:59
  they may go with their running game a lot
• 10:02
  more in this game too. I think.
• 10:06
  Davis is a choice, but I don't think
• 10:08
  he'll be mine. In fact, I know
• 10:10
  he won't be mine because who did I
• 10:13
  choose? Well. This is my team for this
• 10:16
  week. Going with the Hamilton
• 10:18
  Tiger Cats on defence. I've got
• 10:21
  Nathan Rark as my quarterback and
• 10:24
  captain. My running backs will
• 10:27
  be Xander Horvath from BC and Daniel
• 10:29
  Adeboye out of Ottawa.
• 10:32
  My receivers are going to be
• 10:35
  Jaylen Philpott. Out of Calgary
• 10:38
  and Keyshawn Johnson from Saskatchewan
• 10:40
  and my flex player will be
• 10:42
  Dorian Singer out of Winnipeg. Let's
• 10:45
  hope he has another good game.
• 10:48
  Let's hope they actually utilize him.
• 10:52
  So that's it. Dems my picks.
• 10:55
  As I say every week, use them at
• 10:57
  your own peril. I make no promises.
• 11:01
  I am hope and hope and hope
• 11:04
  and that I can get through to
• 11:07
  the semifinals in the playoffs.
• 11:09
  There's three games like the CFL got to
• 11:12
  the playoffs. Three wins gives me the the
• 11:15
  championship, so wish me.
• 11:18
  Luck, yeah, And wish me intelligence,
• 11:20
  football intelligence. I hope you're
• 11:22
  doing good if you're in leagues where
• 11:24
  they're you're coming down to the
• 11:26
  playoffs, I hope you've made it. I hope
• 11:28
  you're in and are doing well if you're
• 11:31
  still just playing for the fun of this
• 11:33
  well. Play on and good luck with
• 11:36
  it all. One way or another. I will be
• 11:39
  back next week to tell you my fate, even
• 11:42
  if it's probably won't be the last show.
• 11:44
  I'll probably do this through the season
• 11:46
  for anyone who's still playing, but it
• 11:49
  could be my last meaningful show.
