Um we will answer as many as your of your comments your questions as humanly possible in this Championship Sunday show Happy New Year Matthew kick us off with your top storyline it’s really the storyline of the season right well I mean honestly like the the fact of the

Matter is is that like my storyline was different so we we go through the story lines yesterday and then overnight the news comes out that Raheem moer who leads the NFL in touchdown Raheem moer Raheem mustart Raheem the Dream Raheem friend of the podcast friend of the show

Raheem moard Raheem moard I’m in five finals today he’s on every single one of them wow he is out including our show League I’m against you know stupid Dev Justice for kickers um you have C lamb and a mon ra St Brown on that team

Complain about and I had and I I have yeah I had him oname over I I had ra and c and and CI lamb I’m off to a good start I’m wearing my University of Alabama sweatshirt today in honor of CD lamb and I know what you’re saying wait

CD lamb didn’t go to Alabama he did he went to Oklahoma State but he didn’t go to Oklahoma State either he went to Oklahoma Baker to Oklahoma with Baker sorry he went to Oklahoma with Baker with Baker Mayfield but if you look in your his eyes he wants to be at Alabama

He’s the kind of player he was on the field last night with jir Gibbs and James Williams who went to Alabama like you know he played yeah that’s what I saw and I saw I saw a guy in CD lamb that said you know what I’m part of a

Champion I’m I’m I’m going to lead teams to championships the way that Alabama this massive R it’s a massive a massive hell of a story line B was playing for the title next anyway top rer yeah you guys got me off track earlier today all right we no my my

Honestly my top story line here get back to actual fantasy football that we care about uh is not only Raheem moer out but just obviously all the injuries right J Jamar Chase is legitimately a game time decision as well and I I believe so there are 28 games 28 teams playing

Today right so four have already played out of the 28 teams I believe uh 14 13 or 14 depending on you know what happens with one game 13 or 14 of them depending on I guess with how versus brassette um sounds like it’s going be sounds like it’s going to be

How uh but so if it’s how it’s going to be 13 quarterbacks that didn’t start the season as their starting team’s quarterback will start today we’ve got we’ve got you know we’ve got Mason Rudolph and Jake Browning and Jaren Hall tonight on NBC I mean like it just on on

On can you trust your guys Aid no Connell and and um uh Jared stum makes his debut Michael so that you know fantasy with fantasy titles on the line you have all these guys going Taylor hinei is playing for the F 60 quarterbacks I believe have started this

Season a game you’re gonna either win with a backup quarterback in spite of a backup quarterback or because of a backup quarterback so super desperate in my Dynasty super Flex final Jared Super felks Final Super Jared S or jiren hall right well that’s the kind of League that you play

Jaren hall or Jared S him in is a super Fel League um I’m gonna go on I’m GNA tell you right now what you’re going to do Ry Ry Weezy um which I dig I dig there you go that’s his well that’s Ry weezy’s um Avatar there is

Emoji Jaren Hall I think the answer is Jared Hall and I’ll be honest with you I don’t think it’s all that close so uh I I am actually starting jiren Hall uh because because I stupidly bch Joe Flaco well if I known Jobe brette was gonna

Was hurt I would have I would have started Joe Flaco but hurt on the road against the number one uh I’m sorry not on the road but playing against the number one pass defense in the NFL without Amari Cooper I just I got super nervous and I thought what happened in

The second half to Flaco was going to happen the entire game not that he’ already banked 300 yards in three touchdowns um but I’ll tell you this about jiren Hall uh if you look at that first game we we got a very small glimpse of jiren Hall six to seven for

78 yards I believe on that first drive before he got hurt uh it’s a fantasy friendly offense the Packers defense has been bad no Jer Alexander tonight um they want to win the Vikings are still alive in the playoffs they are making this change not because ah let’s see

What we got like what the what R what sea Payton’s doing with uh Russell Wilson and Jarrett STM um they are they think they’ve got it they think jiren Hall gives them the best chance to win now whether that’s true or not we’ll find out tonight but they think jiren

Hall has the best chance to win it’s a fantasy friendly offense and then you think about stum no courland Sutton Jerry Judy’s banged up Marvin Mims is banged up and Lawrence you and I talked about jiren Hall before when that happened I know you like him too right

Yeah in this game here it’s just as simple as this sometimes uh jiren Hall will be throwing to Justin Jefferson there’s nobody on that Broncos offense that’s even close to that caliber Jordan Addison is still up in the air but even with KJ Osborne like you said Matthew

It’s a fantasy friendly offense Tai Chandler’s gotten going and I think it’ll be a back and forth the Vikings the last time I checked our uh one-point favorites in his gametic quarterback I was about to say russan floor he just got to protect himself better than he did against Atlanta correct

One thing was well on J hall I don’t think people realize is that in college he chucked The Deep a ton like he he’s not a who was his wide receiver that he put in the NFL in college God name puka n like like somebody was throwing it to

Puka when puka was going off at BYU right exactly so just the fact that he’s going to be thrown da against a suspect defense with Justin Jefferson looks like Jord nson probably is trending towards playing it’s a good matchup all right uh Jay keep the ball what’s your story line

Philadelphia Eagles one of the most blah teams right now it just hasn’t happened for them after they hit that high water mark when they were 10 and one one seed beating the bills beating the Chiefs they beat the Cowboys now all of a sudden this offense has just been stuck

In mud for so long and I think the big thing with the eagles and their offense is that they just don’t blow teams out anymore they don’t blow anyone out last year they blowed everyone out this year their only real blowout win was when they beat the Bucks by 14 and that was

Like back in week three uh they beat the Dolphins by 14 that was a close game and so in a game where now they are almost two touchdown favorites against the Cardinals do they get back into that just DeAndre Swift 150 yards two touchdowns the games that you really

Expected him to have in this offense to have throughout the year uh I think that they they will be closer to that than they have been and Swift had 20 carries last week so I think he goes over his 71 and a half rushing yard prop but it’s a

Very strange offense at the moment I think he’ll get some answers today yeah they need some positivity need to get the mojo back Lawrence what you got uh oh before you we got a question let’s pick two from AJ Brown pukaa Travis etn and the aforementioned DeAndre Swift got

These four to choose from for his two Flex positions and can’t decide any help is gratefully received that’s what we’re here for first off again I don’t think he can screw this up um I I don’t know how you’re benching AJ Brown against Arizona

I I you got to have AJ in he’s he’s locked in yeah I I would rule out etn just I’m nervous about what that offense looks like under CJ strap we’ll get right I mean we’re going to talk about that as well I I get the I get the workload there

Right and sorry CJ CJ be awesome C sorry it’s all good got my CJ’s mix up yeah CJ Beth I’m nervous about what that offense looks like under CJ Beth as well I get that it’s a good match up against Carolina and they might lean on etn more

But I think it’s the receivers DeAndre Swift should have a monster game I will say this it’s Arizona and he should have a monster game the only concern with DeAndre Swift is again there’s a chance that Hertz vulture three touchdowns yep yep don’t steal my thunder I but it is a

Chance I’m gonna I’m going to go with the wide receivers there I’m assuming it’s PPR I’m going to go with AJ and puka nervous about puka just because he was dealing with the injuries coming in and just one little niche thing this doesn’t matter a ton but the Giants

Obviously under wink they Blitz uh as much as anyone outside of Brian Flores in Minnesota and against the blitz Matthew Stafford goes to Cooper cup Cooper cup is the guy most targeted against the blitz so that’s just a little small thing I think it moves the

Nal a ton you know then I mean I don’t mind etn I mean again it is it is it is Carolina they are 18th against the run over the last four weeks and you know again with CJ Beth under Center they may it may be volume heavy like if you if

You want to go like I think we all agree on AJ Brown um sound like he’s got the deepest receiver CT to cheuck it too yeah it’s not it’s not bad I’m gonna say it’s AJ Brown and then I think it’s a coin flip between etn and puka that’s

What I will that’s what I would say there um personally I I think I think PUK has a big game all right but I also he T to be fine so anyway like you said first world problem yeah yeah I don’t think he can screw that up actually all

Four should go off Jack since we’ve been in the fantasy playoffs this year y’all know who the top quarterback is been who that it’s Baker Mayfield and uh and my storyline is I I want to know if will he continue today to be the best quarterback in the fantasy playoffs uh

Here going up against this Saints defense that the middle of the road overall defense top 10 pass defense but they’ll be without marshan Latimore uh beer Mayfields eight touchdowns zero picks in his last three games um so it’ll be interesting to see can he cap this off they they’ve catapulted to

Being the best team in the NFC South that’s that’s become more consistent now we was trying to figure that out for a while and if they could put the Saints out of commission the Saints are still fighting for their playoff live so if Baker could lead this team to put these

Saints out of commission will be my biggest question about that Baker Mayfield who played college with CD lamb at Alabama who at Alabama last night on the field wished he could say Roll Tide he rolled like like a member of Alabama so we going to take this question I got

A question for you all right first Stafford or Baker also Z flowers Rashid Shahed obj or Drake London all right let’s let’s start with the uh let’s so is it only one I if it’s only one it’s a flowers that’s the answer yeah I mean if if it’s only one

It’s if it’s if it’s if it’s two um if it’s two receivers I actually think it’s Z flowers and Shahed Shahed actually had a full-time role last last week if you look at the route participation on on the Saints they finally upgraded rased Shahed to like a full-time role played

Over 70% of the snaps he ran a route on U I think 85% something like that of the of the great route participation for Shahed but Z flowers is the answer there and then I I’ll just tell you like I mean I I don’t think you can screw this

Up I have Stafford at seven I have Baker at 10 but you know he Stafford’s playing so well you know against the Giants I’m going to go with Stafford here but again both guys are top 10 options I agree with Lawrence good for Baker Mayfield by

The way just that that’s for all the you know I was just going to say you know everyone’s talking about Demar Hamlin and you know some of the other and Joe flacko comeback Player of the Year like no one’s Baker Mayfield is going to is a

Guy that was like I don’t want to say was close out of football but it was a guy like will he be a career back to being a definitely backup and coming into the season oh he’ll just be a stop Gap until they find a guy like not he

Probably Beaty k a competition what I love the most about it and you and he’s going to lead him to a division title I love the most about it there was a lot of speculation in the preseason of whether or not Baker Mayfield could be this year’s Gino Smith yes sir given the

Situation he landed in and he delivered yeah he’s been better here’s the thing with comeback Player of the Year too like dear Hamlin is his own thing and if people want to vote for Demar Hamlin I think that’s completely fine and just fine I think he will probably win the

Award but right now with the odds Joe flacko is plus 100 and Baker Mayfield is 10 to1 that makes no sense whatsoever flacko has played five games Mayfield has played the whole season and he been better than flacko FL thr eight interceptions in 5K like Flo’s an amazing story Baker’s been better at

Football and he’s been there the whole season and I think he’s got a better comeback story yeah he does he does I mean off the shelf you know like like off the couch to you know lead your team to the playoff by the way after he called the Jets and said when Rogers

Went down he called the Jets says hey I’ll come back I’ll be a backup I’ll help out and they’re like and then he just puts the nail the it’s not like the Browns wanted to call him either right they they went through DTR first um PJ

Walker they admit it was just like let’s just get a vet in and round out the quarterback room he was he wasn’t even supposed to St an opportunity to crap on the commanders which I always like to do um by the way they also the Browns this

Just came out I missed this last week but I tweeted it I tweet it yesterday they called about jacobe brassette they called and said can we trade for jacobe brassette and at that point the commanders were committed to Sam Howell and job BR just going to be a backup and

Hey here’s a team that’s got legit playoff aspirations and potential that had him last year he knows the offense and Ron R is like no I’m not letting go of that guy and that’s just like a first off it’s stupid why would do not trade a backup quarter you know your team’s not

Going anywhere and he’s not your starter right so first they love like I get no he’s a locker room guy but I understand but like but I’m just like first off get something for the team it’s a dumb move for the franchise and by the way it’s

Just it’s bad karma like the guy’s a good guy Everyone likes jacobe brette Everyone likes jacobe brette let the guy go compete for a title with his former team sitting behind sit behind Sam how on a crappy Commander te your objective analysis know your objective analysis is

Good but I blame you at this point for just supporting that team speaking of like why are you doing that to yourself but speaking of okay so that’s what I want to get to yes sir and I should no this about you all the years I’ve known

You yes how exactly did the Texas ANM guy be such a Bama fan well two two reasons number one okay first off my son my 18-year-old son is a freshman in Alabama so you know rolled High and um Tex STM is um I’m let me know my notes

Here um they are oh they’re not good they’re not good they’re not good they’re paying $90 million to a coach who’s not good that’s right now is that the $6 billion we had to pay Dan Snider to go away no it is not command chat yes I can make anything about the commanders

This is my so when come to teams I think you got a tight no he seems to right you know you just like pain like dysfunction he’s an angels fan as well the radar this is this is also true romly pain I surround myself pain over

Reality for sure but also Al by the way this is my fantasy team right here so you it’s all um it’s all happening uh to answer your question though uh I when ANM in Alabama play I root for ANM just to be very clear I grew up in College

Station my dad still is a professor Tex M gig Maggie but this is a new thing this is from once my son you repping like you repping like you been down since Jean Stallings or something you just I’ve been down since August J exactly last last and least and I and I

Wavered in the top Florida game I trust uh last and least my storyline yes sir uh Brock pie may have lost the MVP it may have lost a lot of you your semi-final game but if you survived it he could win a lot of championships today against those

Commanders for all the reasons you just laid out and we going to get more into that uh when we get into uh shot for shot we’re going have some fun with that game but without further Ado first is deo Samuel dressed in his Sunday Best repping for his quarterback

Of that’s my quarterback two quarterback two touchdowns coming for Debo look at that minimum probably one on the ground two in addition as well listen when when I feel like I’m not getting enough love on the show and not getting enough questions I I I rock a dynasty exchange

Sweatshirt I walk in here with Michael sweatshirt you know and I’m like oh Michael get me some love and you know Deo deo’s no dummy well you know yeah this this is this is going to be uh fun for everybody it said MVP on the back

Did you see that yeah it said 13 M probably got to take that off May made that like two weeks ago though what’s how angry Lawrence is in the speaking of which I I’ve delayed this long enough as we get into burning questions our first

One is going to be uh from the Dolphins and Ravens game I need for Lawrence to stand up and let the people get a real good shot of this shirt if you know you know we’ve yeah you listen the term quarterbacking you know apparently you know Lamar Jackson ain’t quarterbacking

Enough but the good thing is today he get a chance to show that he is quarterback he enough if he wins if him and the Ravens win this game he will pretty much lock up that MVP in this shirt at the bottom will go from WTF to MVP let’s go Mr quarterbacking well

Played I’m usually not Indy as of t-shirts but today I am my friend uh Lauren Lamar Jackson is Matthew Barry’s qb2 but Matthew let’s focus on the Miami side of things because we knew Jaylen W was going to miss this game yeah and as you talked about off the top now know

Raheem mostard who steps up I think the obvious answer here is Devon a you’ll see some Jeff Wilson Jr here I gotten a lot of question where you go to school Don Tex A&M Magie thank you very much something great came out of yeah that’s

Right I thought you were GNA ask me Jeff Wilson Jr and the answer is I don’t know the answer I I don’t know I don’t know where Jeff Wilson Jr went to college uh but Australia there you go big mon University very Brisbane um uh anyway uh

What I will say here is I don’t I’ve gotten a lot of questions on Twitter X about Jeff Wilson Jr’s Z vial Flex the answer like sort of maybe I just I to me it’s a championship game and we’re already dealing with enough uncertainty Jeff wison JR could get 12 carries and

And two touchdowns on the Dolphins he could also get three like we just we haven’t seen it all year long and to start a guy like that um I I think there are better Flex desperation plays that you feel better about than Jeff Wilson Jr today again he could go off but it’s

Baltimore is so good against the run I do think Devon Anan though as he saw it there he’s a top 12 running back for me he’s seen 12 touches this season and a bunch of different games in every game in which he’s seen at least 12 touches he’s averaging over 20 fantasy points

Per game double digit Target share in three of the past four which is good because again Baltimore so good against the run but you can get them on the corners you can get them with the speed and you think about that one game without Jaylen Wadd the season Devon aan

Scored 51 fantasy points it was week three I’m not expecting that I’m not predicting a massive game from Devon aan but he should get a ton of work against this Ravens defense as well again Ravens seventh fuse fantasy points allowed running backs it’s not a good matchup

But the talent of aan his involvement in the passing game no jayen waddle I think he’s a high-end rb2 today I think he’s due for an explosive receiving game it’s just he’s been on a cusp of that right he had that ball against Tennessee where

It was going to be like an 80 yard touchdown and it was just out in front of him they just weren on the same page but I agree with hn in the receiving game also it’s just come out that uh there is no sign of Kyle Hamilton on the

Field right now that is a massive deal I think I mean you can argue ran Smith he’s arguably the best player on that defense Brandon Stevens at corner he’s also in some doubt so I think the answer honestly it’s Tyreek Hill and I know that’s kind of boring from a fantasy

Perspective but he’s going to get peppered Cedric Wilson I think has some interest as well just given he’s going to be the secondary receiver for that offense which is has been just about the best offensive football yeah speak speaking of s Wilson I just got a interesting question because he’s played

55% of the snaps in the last four games so you got Wadd out right you got Raheem moer so here you have Jeff Wilson and Cedric Wilson if it came down to who would y’all play out of those two guys in the flex spot let’s say I would I

Would go Jeff I love aan I I I hear everything and agree with everything you’re saying but what has been alarming in the last couple of weeks from the aan perspective I have him in Dynasty so been paying particularly close attention to it is Jeff Wilson playing seemingly

In spots over aan I’m not sure what the exact rotation is but there are spots where I’m like why is Jeff w Wilson in there right now why why is that not a chance so it just I don’t feels like Jeff Wilson Mike McDaniel trusts him he’s correct and he’s also he’s getting

Some of the short yardage work it hasn’t been a ton but he has some of the you know again it’s all small sample size here but he’s gotten some short yardage work so there’s a chance he’s quote unquote their goal line back like again with stuff like this you’d always say

Well who’s got the best shot at a touchdown and Jeff Wilson Jr has the best shot at a touchdown today doesn’t mean that T Wilson couldn’t get in there but I will tell you I think there some other sneaky wide receiver starts that we get to it at some other point of the

Show oh oh my goodness okay Anthony PTO he’s been following since the’ 06010 days in the finals again this year always appreciate the advice opponent has Rashad white Christian mcaffrey and AJ Brown already had Bree go and has Tyreek rice and mo okay one running back buto white or

Aan I think those are all pretty good I’m gonna go with Pacho I I I mean I just I I think here’s where I have them all right so I have I have zamir white at 15 I have Pacho at um I thought I P

Yeah PCO at eight I was gonna say I thought I at nine okay so I Pacho at eight I have zamir white at 15 and I have aan at 12 as you know so I’m going to go with Pacho just that defense of Cincinnati is so banged up their reports

That have come out that they quote unquote want to simplify the offense um and so I think that means Travis Kelce Rashi rice and Isa Isaiah Pacho and that’s it I mean I have I I’ll tell you in the show League that we’re playing I’m playing against you know stupid Dev

Who uh you know yeah exactly th% he stole a bunch of tight ends from me he’s stupid Dev for anyway play to win yeah anyway so um uh anyway no uh devb devb is starting Isaiah Pacho against me so you know he’s going to go off um as well

I I just feel like he he’s gotten healthy as well the McKinnon’s out who knows with Clyde Edwards elair He’s expected to play But Clyde Edwards aair isn’t good I so I do think again given how beat up the Cincinnati Bengals defense is I think PCO the one thing I

Will say is if you’re like hey I don’t want to put all my eggs in the KC basket because you’ve already got Rashid rice then to me aan would be the next guy and you have Tyreek if if you wanted to diversify zamir white would be the

Answer there to me because you obviously have Tyreek and and you have rice um and I do think zamir white has a really nice game I’m at 15 like I think he’s going to get a massive workload against the Colts which is a really nice matchup I

Don’t think you can screw it up all three guys are top 15 for me but if you’re ask me for one I’m saying PCO that’s the guy I think has the the best game there Matthew it’s funny because normally we don’t you know we kind of couch terms we don’t say that someone’s

Not good the only three guys we definitively say are not good Clyde Edwards Air uh Joshua Kelly and Mike McCarthy those the three guys on the Edwards I’m I’m ashle starting him today I’m I’m starting him and PCO in the same lineup oh wow because I like

I’m missing jayen W so I’m like well one of these dudes got to get that russan touchdown and it’s like you it’s a league where you can’t add anyone anymore so it’s like wow okay I’m like damn here we go I’m same thing I’m in I’m like lit I literally have mostard in

All five finals teams that I have which is honestly he’s one of the reasons why is you get that kind of production from a late round pick and I’m in one League I have I’m just I I in that League I have Wadd and AER and so for a flex I’m

Putting in C cuz I already have P I’m like I’m with you I’m like give me the give me City running back but I do think Pacho gets the majority of work today let’s stay with the chief let’s stay with the Chiefs then sounds like we like

The Chiefs uh to get right against these Bengals today Matthew yeah we we we really do I I mean honestly like they they’ve tried to simplify the offense as well um uh the uh over the last month uh the the the Bengals are a bottom 10 scoring defense like they just they’re

They’re beat up they’re not particularly good to begin with and they’re really beat up on that side of the ball as well so I have Mahomes at qb5 I have Rashid rice I’ll just talk about rashed rice here for a second because I think everyone that has Mahomes is probably

Starting him you’re hoping for better but since week 12 he’s the eighth best wide receiver in fantasy football averaging over 18 fantasy points per per game he’s got a 25% Target share in that stretch Bengals have allowed at least two touchdowns to opposing wide receivers now in back to back games and

Again this report about how they want to simplify the offense you see Mahomes getting frustrated week after week about all these guys not doing their job and the only guys that are doing their job Travis Kelce Isaiah Pacho and Rashid rice who’s a guy in the preseason that

We liked because we talked about the fact that Mahomes went and carped for him to uh to the front offense said go draft me Rashid rice they worked out together in the summer so their connection is longer than most quarterbacks with rookies yep little contrarian but I don’t think they’re

Going to get right because I don’t think there’s any hope for this passing offense at the moment I think with the running game they will get right it’s a really good match up no GJ reita for Cincinnati I think peo is going to eat but the thing with Cincinnati their

Defense is bad but in what way is it bad they give up explosive plays down the field you know who doesn’t get down the field the Chiefs cannot get down the field it’s all like behind the line of scrimmage so I’m I don’t trust momes in

This match up to have a massive day but I do trust peo which is weird to say four point PPR is air white uh Zeke any consideration for benchin Kelce or McBride for either of those players no I I mean I absolutely not and I prefer zamir white over Ezekiel

Elliott not particularly close yep okay um real quickly on this as long as we’re talking about this game because I just I want to talk with the other side of the ball Jamar Chase is a game time decision looks like he’s trending towards playing and the other thing that’s really

Interesting here is lerus Sneed who has been a true shutdown Corner this year is also a true game time decision he’s been banged up if Sneed were to miss you’d feel a lot better about Jake Browning in this game and you’d feel a lot better you’re starting Jamar Chase anyway

Because he’s if if Jamar Chase is active you’re starting Jamar Chase he’s Jamar Chase but um you would feel better about Browning and I’d feel better about t Higgins because Chase is always GNA get his but if Sneed is active and he he’ll be on Chase and you’d feel better about

Higgins if Chase is out and sne is active and then Higgins is on sne I wouldn’t feel great about that I’m not playing Tyler Boyd I have Tyler Boyd in the Deep League I’m not playing him today because I’m not I am expecting Chase to be back if he ain’t first your

Last but I am playing for third which gets me my entry feedback okay thinking jiren Hall over uh Jake Browning I don’t mind that at all either Chief defense Browning you know you you get to live it out all the way through week 17 too so

There you go there is a little piece of that where like I’ll say that like delay it if I have a tossup like that then I will like I there often I’ll be like you know what give me a rooting interest like look we play this for fun right

Like give me some action decides Matthew Barry to watch Night Football right exactly and so yeah I mean that’s one of the reasons I chose Hall over you know Sam Howell or Jobe brassett or any of the other options I could have had Jared STM yeah have a little fun have a little

Fun you so there’s that you know what has not been fun but anyway I Jake Browning feels like the league has figured him out a little bit uh what has not been fun and maybe you can figure this out Stefan digs starting Stefan digs and watching him disappoint

I don’t thankfully that’s not me but a lot of people have do you just it’s Championship Sunday you know I know the top of Matthew Bar’s 10 commandments is don’t get cute but it’s been anything but cute with Stefan digs has been doing lately do you just roll him out there

Against the Patriots because he’s Stefan digs and if you don’t he going to go off for 150 yards and three touchdowns because you didn’t or do you start him and he disappoints you again he’ be like damn it I knew I shouldn’t have started he’s my wide receiver 14 since week 10

He’s the 53rd best wide receiver in fantasy football he’s had singled digigit fantasy points in five of the past six since Joe Brady took over he’s averaging under five yards per Target they’ve turned this into a more conservative run heavy offense they’re spreading the ball around Joe Brady’s

Done a great job for the bills offense yeah but it has not been great for Stefon Dig’s fantasy value if you’re looking for a bright sign again cuz most people don’t have the option to bench Stefon digs and if they do have the option to bench Stefon dig they may not

Have the onions to do so because that is it is a ballsy thing to do make no mistake about it here’s what you can hang your hat on three straight games he’s had at least a 30% Target share all the underlying numbers are there and he played the Patriots earlier this year he

Went 6 for 58 in a touchdown scored 17.8 fantasy points he has traditionally played very well against Bill bich he’s had big games against them as well and so again I’m at wide receiver 14 but I will tell you a good friend of mine asked me Stefan digs or Rashi rice and I

Said Rashi rice I I like I just talked up rice I mean again rice has been red hot they both have good matchups Dig’s just the underlying numbers are there but the production isn’t and so I I tell you this just from a strategic standpoint if you’re in a fantasy

Championship right now and you’ve been starting Stefan diggs’s week Hy if you could win those rounds with him doing what he’s done the chances of him doing better than that are uh are pretty good does it have to be prologue you know yeah you know so you know ride it out

Keep getting those points from those other receivers that you’ve been starting y I think the thing with Diggs too is that Allen’s pick against the Chargers if that’s half a yard deeper that’s an 87 yard touchdown for Stefon Diggs and how much different do we think

About if it’s just one play and the Patriots run defense has been top two in the NFL I don’t think the Bill’s going to be able to run the ball because no one runs the ball in the Patriots meanwhile their pass defense isn’t great and jail pep is sty safet to he’s out

Too so I think digs will get right by the way just very quickly starting to come in and we’ll we’ll get to all the inactives after the break but I just want to point out uh Kyle Hamilton and Brandon Stevens are both out for the Ravens both officially out so that is

Certainly an upgrade to the Dolphins passing attack Raheem moard officially inactive as well maybe not six touchs we’re looking good for two and something specific for Steven datino Deontay Foreman inactive something to think about there um speaking of Stephen Jaguars yes our producer Stephen he loves his swagar no

Trevor Lawrence no CJ strad either Matthew it’s CJ Beth yes that’s um we talked about Travis etn earlier hasn’t had the most efficient season but you think they probably lean on him no team has allowed more rushing touchdowns to running backs on the Carolina Panthers they also give up the fifth most fantasy

Points allowed they just got Aaron Jones right last week etn had at least four receptions in uh four the past five so besides etn who else trust him I would say Evan Ingram Oh yeah oh yeah I in fact we can trust etn but I probably feel better about Evan Ingram like dude

Having a career year coming off a 10 catch game for 95 yards hell two of his last three games have been for 90 plus yards and before that he went for 80 in a touchdown so it’s like that’s the Jaguar I would feel especially when you

Got a backup quarterback in there CJ a backup quarterback with experience but you know he’s Beth’s got some experience with George kdo and whatnot just get with that security blanket and that that would be the best Jaguar if I’m not mistaken tight ends lately have been pretty productive against Carolina have

They not they they certainly have by the way over the last month Evan Ingram is the number one tight end in fantasy sir he’s got a 24% Target share only Trey McBride has a has a higher uh Target share than than Evan Ingram and then the most important Point here is that Evan

Ingram is the starting tight end for stupid Dev so I’m just telling you he’s gonna go off against me I’m just I’m promising you right now I am promising you he’s gonna have a monster game for Dev in the championship game for this show he will but I don’t know if it’ll

Be enough to overcome cidd lamb Sun God and David Montgomery getting the touch got he’s got he’s got he’s got chimra he’s got Evan Ingram like I’m starting Jawan Johnson at at tight end like don’t all you need out of him is a touchdown yeah no I got I mean Hawkins went down

For me I just lost know this is the emotional management like let me just set myself up so I’m not disappointed last night it’s over like see like 227 on them I know you never take nothing’s it’s fantasy never take round points thanks to uh Monday Night Football all right let’s take some

Shots yall ready yeah yeah yeah let’s do it all right uh Matthew lead us off all right Chris mcaffrey Deo Samuel brenon iuk all of them have 100 yards in a touchdown against Washington I’d throw George KD in there as well over the last four weeks no team

Has allowed more points uh per game than why washingon commanders they’re beat up uh it’s they’re they phoning this in they do not care they Ron Rivera has lost the locker room uh they’re start they’re they’re beat up on both sides of the ball and they’re missing they’re

Missing two of their starting Corners who are bad to begin with like it this be a disaster the ners get the ners get right the ners get right in this game in a big big way um you know like after after losing to Baltimore anyway 100 yards in TouchDown for Chris mcaffrey

Brandon auk Deo saniel and I’ll throw George K in there as well why not uh you know what uh Lawrence piggy back off for that I’m going to stay with this game here and I don’t have to tell you even about the commanders and all their horrible defensive statistics because because

Matthew is an expert at that but what I will say is this is Christian mcaffrey still got a chance at the MVP now we know Shanahan and this offense they all about they B them records and Stat pad and they tried to get CMC a record

Earlier this year so they like this now that Brock is out CMC is their chance so I’m saying he goes for at least 186 yards and four touchdown so sorry Matthew Debo and George KD won’t get anything CMC all them that’s who I’m hedging my MVP it’d be awesome if the

Year that we said running backs don’t matter this off season one wins MVP I just want to have some fun with this real quick I hope CMC goes off in my third place game since Cooper cup and Stefon digs got me single digits last week and I lost by three points I just

Want to have some fun with this since we piling on the commanders right now okay um I’mma just I’mma raise both of you okay Sam darnold qb2 numbers this this game going be over so fast get it th like two touchdown passes so Sam he threw one last this going to be

The other way he got eat right along with him go ahead Z unbelievable all right well I’m not going to the San Francisco Washington game the only one I going say Bryce Young Who I think turned the corner last week had played really well against Green bers for 300 plus

Yards they put up 30 points I think that he is going to keep it rolling against the Jags I think that Jag’s defense is really struggling Bryce young goes for 250 plus passing yards that’s plus 700 on Draft Kings for that I love to see him finish strong good he was he was

Written off like like a rookie quarterback Matthew back to you okay zamir white 100 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown today he’ll be a top 15 fantasy running back as well Colts have allowed at least 100 yards from scrimmage to a running back in five of the past six Samir white gets a

Massive workload Josh Jacobs is officially inactive that has come out so it will be the zamir white show on the road at great match up top 15 play for me zamir white Fantasy Playoff superhero yeah I I definitely need him like it all right my next one you mentioned the MVP

Race uh in Christian mcaffrey about Tyreek Hill who I think he saw what CD lamb did last night Tyreek Hill replicates s Lamb’s 200 plus yard game if he does that in a win over Baltimore and Lamar Jackson Tyreek Hills your MVP favorite with a guy who with a

Especially if he’s got a guy that you know he’s facing a guy that isn’t all that quarterback exactly Tua is very quarterbacking Tua would be considered quarterbacking yeah Lawrence um speaking of that same game I’m going to go to the other receivers Baltimore Ravens receivers Z flowers and obj will both

Score a touchdown today against these Dolphins Miami has allowed a wide receiver to catch a touchdown in three straight games and in week 16 cidd lamb and Brandon Cooks scored a touch touch down against them they’ll have two receivers score against them this week as well I like it um the Rams wide

Receiver three very much a viable fantasy wide receiver 3 Flex type guy make it five games in a row for Demarcus Robinson you’re talking about Fantasy Playoff superheroes Demarcus Robinson starting in the day give me another touchdown D Rob all right he been scoring much huh Matthew all right my

Last one here all right so in our show League which I’ve mentioned more not heard anything about it what the latest well so like I lost TJ hackinson I’ve also lost mostard I lost you know it’s it’s been tough uh injury watch don’t nobody want you could play

You’re in the final I can’t stand somebody in the final playing the world’s smallest violin stop I’m is I going to play one smaller so I needed to tight end so what a devb do what did stupid Dev do what did stupid Dev do stupid Dev went to the

W W wire and picked up every viable tight end now how is he allowed to do this that is a controversy that is brewing below the scenes offse because I put in some claims and didn’t get any any it’s a whole thing I will not go there uh out

Of uh out of respect for um the people that have asked me not to do that as you call stupid Dev no no Dev devb doesn’t care it’s it’s it’s the it’s the suit here’s what I will say though so I I I found Jan Johnson found Jan Johnson

So Jan Johnson D mark my word stupid Dev Joan Johnson who’s had doubled to the fantasy points in back toback games and now plays uh the Buccaneers who are top five in terms of most fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends Joan Johnson seven targets last week he’s a viable streamer this

Week he finishes as the top 12 tight end your evil plan fails at terms of tight end stupid Dev give me Jaan Johnson how did he not pick up Jaan Johnson give all everything you just said how he miss Hunter Henry picked up which was all

Good pickup stupid de how did he miss him by the way rust just so you know kid Dev is like the sweetest kid in the world and I’m just sitting here murdering him he’s like the sweetest kid in the world he’s done a great job this

Year I’m sorry if he does beat you he deserves it if he beats me he can you since you turn around a quarterback he shirt as quickly as you did can you make a stupid Dev t-shirt for him to wear next week yeah and I will and I will

Wear that th% I will do that for Dev all right uh Jay all right well I’m going to talk about the commanders now so there’s two there’s two 14o underdogs this week the commanders and the Patriots they’re both getting blown out bills bills uh and the Niners they both cover the 14

Two touchdowns those two teams Patriots and the commanders here’s the other thing about the commanders that like the commanders in addition to being beat up in the secondary and having given up on the season they they’re they’re um they have two guys two starters on the offensive line the outout yeah it’s not

Good against against Sam how who takes more like like there’s going to be a defensive score in this game like I like chrisan mcaffry might have 500 yards 500 he might he have easily M Lawrence yeah my last one is just this we talked about jiren Hall a little bit earlier um

I’m going to go with jiren Hall throw for at least 252 yards two touchdowns and leading the Vikings who are still alive in the playoff hunt will lead the Vikings to victory over these Packers who just let Bryce Young have his best day as a Pro the week before that Baker Mayfield had

Four touchdowns against him so I’m going with jiren Hall to do the damn thing on NBC that all right I like that let’s go let’s go that would help me against stupid Dev and I was saying about stealing my thunder earlier give me 125 or more yards for DeAndre Swift but

Three Brotherly Love touchdowns for Jay so yeah no like like we J Jaylen Herz is my quarterback in the show league so yeah let’s go three brotherly love I know what you’re thinking about this WOW Barry this is so spreads and totals looking for Value in Futures markets or circling player props

Jay and Drew have you covered hey Jay give me a New Year’s resolution fantasy brother okay Michael my New Year’s resolution is I am no longer going to attach my good name my arguably good name my name to mediocrity for good name yeah my formerly good name and what I

Mean by that is Matthew your ride or die this year was a monra St Brown It’s been fantastic my two ride or dies this year Michael Thomas and nji Harris this hasn’t hasn’t worked out I have random men messaging me on Twitter whenever Nai Harris has like an 8 yard rush or

Michael Thomas would get a first down I have a wife and three children I can’t have this I can’t live like this next year Superstars only mcaffrey Jefferson Chase only those types no more Naji Harris no more Michael Thomas all right we’re going on a break when we’re back

Proper shot inactives plenty of other good stuff we’re back soon There he is that’s a nice Jersey K go that’s a real nice Jersey all right Jay you know stuff about hockey who’s um I know that’s the Penguins I know that’s the Pittsburgh Penguins who’s number eight on the Penguins is it Sydney Crosby is it Sydney Crosby syby Sydney

Crosby’s good we have I’ve heard of him yeah we were at a booth adjacent to him once in Las Vegas remember no that’s true yeah we were yeah we were me me yeah me and Jay we we were partying One Night in Vegas well Kyler Murray had a

Sick that was a sick Jersey he was sick he’s active though uh you’re all degenerate just like the rest of us so you already know the in actors but in case you missed it Kyler Murray Alvin CRA Michael Pitman Jr pukaa Z flowers Cole KT all up jacobe brassette out

Meaning Sam H uh yeah about that whole benching you thing you’re up uh Josh Jacobs Raheem mooler as mentioned and Z Jones all among the key skill position in actives Matthews already told you that zamir white is a top 15 play uh who else jumps out on this list of deep

League ads available in over 40% of leads kind of like justice Hill today just again I know Gus Edward’s better chance to fall into the end zone but Justice Hill played over 62% of the snaps last week again uh I he’s just you know part of a good offense there and he

Is is part of the passing attack there how about game well eaten against Arizona no team has allowed more fantasy points to running backs than Kenneth gainwell in a game that could get out of hand quickly they gain well they keep using him a lot and Taj Spears like has

Four straight games now with doubled the touches he had six or more Targets in three of those uh as well and so in a game in which because CJ strad is back I expect that and the Texans are at home where strad plays so well I think

Tennessee is probably down in this game and throwing will Levis is expecting back for the you know will Levis is back for the Titans and so we saw the last the last big game that Taj Spears had was that crazy comeback against Miami where he was just peppering Taj Spears

I’ve already talked up Demarcus Robinson scoring streak you mentioned Rashid Shah playing a full-time role last week yeah and by the way Bucks have allowed more yards to wide receivers this season than any other team in the NFL pop Douglas like again Demario Douglas is you know

Probably more of a floor play than an upside play but if you’re desperate he does have at least five receptions in five and six games hunter Henry officially out uh as well and so bayy zappy seems to be most comfortable in the middle of the field and they should

Be throwing quite a lot against Buffalo and uh if you’re down bad at quarterback or tight end well I mean I guess we all down bad at quarterback these days uh Jake Browning Derek Carr you like Derek Car against that buck secondary I they’re the worst pass defense in the

NFL as well that be a yes yes honestly I do I think uh I’m you see there I’m QB 14 as well Browning could be okay in what is potentially a shootout here as well cha cono not that he’s on my team because of course Deb so by the way Deb

Super Deb just to like sort of give the middle finger waved him this morning so I can’t get him pick him off that’s the move right there kept him on up on Tuesday he did that with h he did that with every tight end he picked him up

Way but anyway was worth noting since week 12 cha conco is the top TW is tight end 12 in fantasy points per game Houston struggles against uh against the tight end as well and Gerald Ard I think is really interesting no Keenan Allen no Josh Palmer for this game the stickman

And stick seems to like to look for Gerald Evert and no team allows more fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends than your Denver Broncos and so I do think Gerald Evert is a very viable streamer today as well before we get to this question you hate stupid Dev

For what he did but you low key love it because it seems like something you before you would have I have I have i’ I said I I said this privately in our group chat and I will say this publicly now I have literally no issue at all

With Dev do like Dev played within the rules I have an issue with our rules that allowed a player to get a lot more picks than me it’s it’s a whole thing I promised people I wouldn’t go off on this thing I would just say yes he got

Like five picks before I was able to make a pick which strikes me as weird unfair yes uh I will just say but you realize that’s been in place all year correct cuz I was a victim of that several times ex exactly me too that’s

Why I got last and least I was a victim of this rule in our show lead yeah the set easy to be changed don’t yeah don’t get me start on our settings or a commissioner but what I will say is what I will say is given given that I have no

Problem with Dev picking up it’s absolutely the right fight never clean a good no sometimes the best offense is a good defense I have no issue with that move from a fantasy he did nothing wrong at all he did it right I mean that’s a smart like I mean I’ll sit here

About it on air but like legi you can get no no no don’t you know you know don’t hate the player hate the game right I mean like honestly like Dev did absolutely right super smart by him and I would say to you if you’re looking out

There and you’re saying like hey you know like I would I would grab um you know Jeff Wilson Jr if if my opponent had moster obviously hen’s already rostered in your league but like I’d grab Jeff wison just so he can’t use him I would use it myself but like cuz you

Know it’s not you know what not going to help you bench guys bench space doesn’t matter doesn’t matter your entire bench should be nothing but like the tools at your disposal hey George what’s the word oh George sabz all right so was a viewer

Was a host and now he’s back to being a viewer so here’s what I like QB Kyler parentheses sick a stum or Jared Hall McLaren no Bret thank you for all the information here or lock it at Flex standard scoring a big thank you to Matthew for dropping flacko Thursday my

Buddy Brian also Panic drop Flack on Thursday giving George a shot in the championship matchup wow so he went from viewer to host to down troll okay great thanks George quite the quite the hero for you um I I’m going why why I’m helping you he just just you guys can

Help Micha you should have seen it last week where Matthew started trying to talk golf given that George works on Golf Channel and the first golfer that he came up with was uh Justin Watson who’s a receiver on the Chiefs doesn’t might play All Season he played

Gol well that that doesn’t top to Arnold Palmer though I think you starting kyari it’s still kyari St might do something Jaren Hall might do something J KY m is just so much more of a proven commodity last week McLaren will lock it at Flex I

Think that’s close now that Hal is back that makes me feel worse about McLaren Ty lock it he’s high floor I’m going with locket I mean again Steelers secondary is banged up games in Seattle I think Gino Gino usually plays better at home I think they get right

There pick two with non PPR Conor chra Aaron Jones or Ty Chandler who George has been saying the preseason is the better back than Alexander M yeah on the Golf Channel he just yeah plays Championship love Tai Chandler chat good exactly as well he’s you know he’s just

Like ah Tiger’s approaching 12 but I really like this TI Chan all right uh I’m going with Aaron Jones and Alvin chra yes sir yes that’s for me I I I have Jones just slightly higher than Chandler so that’s the Sunday night game you can sort of feel but like definitely

Chimra chimra who by the way is on stupid devs team he’s goingon to have a monster game to Z flowers is a mere white for flex and PPR I’m going with zamir white I like Z flowers obviously quite a bit but I I like the under in

That game the the Dolphins Ravens game I think that’s a lower scoring game I what it 46 and a half I think I think it’s going to be a SL fist these two excellent defenses might hover more around 40ish 46 and a half yeah I I like

The under in that game I I think they might take away Z flowers it might be an Isaiah likely game you know Lamar might do some quarterback stuff where he just anyway I’m I’m giv zamir white just I think just I think by the way I also

Thinkir White’s got the better shot at a touch down St also injured he only got ruled in like 30 minutes ago he carrying the calf thing so that’s a little concern y all right time for proper shot it’s been a couple of weeks man I don’t

Know if my oh boy might be a little rusty I was I was so hot before my uh I got before I was on the injured list not the injured list I got I was away from the team personal I was yeah I’ll go first yeah you go Jared

St yeah that’s jar how did Jared STM get astray just now I don’t know yeah well you know why you always stand up for the I like to stand up I’m better off I I make it when I stand up do you yeah yeah research on oh you’ve made

One previously okay look at that that one went yeah I saw it just are you believe your eyes what I told it kind of It kind of moved a little bit so it makes the degree of difficulty little you know harder for me yeah show me how quarterback you are I’m quarterback you

Right here ah man that was nice Michael really goes with the Stafford kind of side arm angles man I’m an arm angles guy I’m all we started to a shot last year we had a basketball and it was that was more fun and was it made more sense sure we actually that was

Easier I feel like it’s easier than this but this thing right here they got a game like this at Dave and Busters but I just like throw them in like I don’t throw them in like a real football that game is called UB QB and like I crushed

At that game with a with a it’s got a conveyor belt because I get into a rhythm but doing one right here when I’m I’m busy dishing out knowledge and then I got to stop to like you know that’s it your whole brain whole I got a lot going

On over here I I’ll gather some more can practice uh but let’s start with this Jay AJ Brown receptions over under 6 and a half going under just the game script thing the Eagles are almost 2 favor this thing they established the run against Arizona’s mediocre run defense Lawrence

Cooper cup receiving yards over under 69 and a half you know I’m going to go over man he’s had at least 110 yards and a touchdown two of his last three games he’s averaging 10 targets a game in those three games that should be enough for him to get over furthermore the

Giants allow AJ Brown and Devonte Smith to go over this so I’m hitting over Matthew zir right White’s rushing yards over under 73 and a half I’m going to go over like last two weeks he’s averaging 19.5 carries per game on the road that’s what Antonio Pierce wants to do is run

The ball play good defense Colts have allowed at least 74 rushing yards to a running back in all but two games this season and zamir white who’s getting much majority work I think he goes over 73 and a half by the way Colts also allowed four and a half yards per carry

To running backs in the last month Jay Baker May field passing yards over under 236 and A2 this is too low I’m taking the over here uh Saints defense has struggled lately just don’t have a pass rush Baker’s playing at a really high level with a lot of confidence and he

Becomes the leader in the non Demar Hamlin comeback Player of the Year race Lawrence Travis etn yards from scrimmage over under 85 and a half it looks like it could be easy but I’m going to go under man he ain’t hit this number in four straight weeks and the Panthers now

For the season they’re not a good run defense but they haven’t allowed this number in two of their last three games we just saw Aaron Jones go off against them but the Carolina defense playing better I still got questions about the Jags offense so give me the under on etn

Matthew Patrick Mahomes completions over under 25 a half uh I’m going over first off he’s been over this number in back-to-back games even though they’ve struggled he’s actually been over this number in back-to-back games and he’s also hit this number in six of his nine wins this season they’re six and a half

Point favorites over the Bengals today I do think they win this game so give me the over 25 and a half uh completions for Patrick Mahomes Jay Josh Allen’s passing yards over under 238 and A2 taking the over here Patriot have an awesome run defense this is a pass

Funnel defense like I mentioned earlier missing jabril peppers and Michael if Lamar Jackson loses today or plays really poorly in a win Josh Allen wins MVP next week with a win all right Lawrence bejan Robinson’s yards from scrimmage over under 74 and a half I’m going to hit the over on this despite

What’s the off the Falcons offense being unpr predictable and giving him the ball he’s hit this number five of his last six games the Bears while improved they’ve allowed this number to hit uh in two of their last three games so the Bears defense is better but not that

Much better to where bejan can’t get 75 scrimmage yards all right uh Matthew how quarterback is Lamar Jackson today when you combine his passing and rushing yards over under 290 and a half I think he’s pretty quarterback he I think he should the MVP I will say if I was

Voting today Lamar Jackson would get my MVP vote having said that give me the under on 20 290 and a half rushing a passing and rushing yards right first off he’s been under this number in every game this year except for six Miami’s had allowed under 200 passing yards and

Five of the past six Jackson has been under this number in five or six games when he has 40 or fewer rushing yards again dolphin’s one of the better run defenses in the NFL Vic Fano has done a really great job with this defense we talked about this earli in the show I

Think this game is a slugfest I like the under in this game and I like the under on Lamar Jackson passing and rushing yards at 290 a half Jay Derrick Henry rushing attempts over under 14 and a half taking the over here on derck Henry every player on the Texans uh defensive

Line has an injury designation like they’re really banged up at the moment and I think this game will be close enough the line is four that Henry goes over Will Anderson is active but it’s worth noting here stupid dev has Derrik Henry on his team so he’s probably going

For two touchdowns I thought he was going there too La DK M receiving yards over under 64 and a half you know it’s been a little flipflop with him the past couple of weeks he’s hit this number two of his last four games but in three straight weeks T Higgins has went over

This number Michael Pitman has went over this number and my man Juju Smith Schuster went for 90 yards against them so give me the over uh for DK metf against Pittsburgh uh and Matthew Justin Jefferson receiving yards over under 78 and a half I’m taking the over he’s been

Over this number in back-to-back games now no Jer Alexander for the Packers as well every game in where he’s ever seen double digit targets he’s had at least 80 receiving yards meaning he’s beat this number and you think about jiren Hall you’re a rookie you’re trying to make this team you wanton somewhere

Exactly you know what you’re doing you’re not ignoring Justin Jefferson you’re like that’s your first read I don’t care what the play is called your first read is always Justin Jefferson H done yeah exactly like this I’m getting a redo too I’m I like the the confidence there oh man oh for two

How you do that Lawrence oh snap okay let’s just go to break off of that uh don’t forget our draft kick sports book this season new customers can bet $5 in Pocket $150 in bonus bets instantly plus all customers can get a no sweat same game parlay every day are we still

Missing download the app and use the promo code Barry when you sign up draftking Sportsbook the crown is yours Lawrence with what’s your New Year’s Eve resolution man you know headed into this New Year’s you know my resolution is just to next year just draft the fantasy

Football team where I had no injuries at all you know cuz it ain’t like football is a physical game it’s not like dud just running into each other you know the best most muscular fastest athletes in the world they ain’t doing none of that so I want to draft myself a team

With no injuries because I think that is very plausible next season so that’s that’s going to be my New Year’s resolution if I have to I will draft my team and I’ll give them a pep top myself like I’m the coach cuz I am the coach I

Draft these players I don’t expect them to get hurt at all because they work out so much in the off season you know they do all this trending I don’t want to see no acl’s and the kees and you know people having illnesses on Wednesday that caus them to be questionable I want

Nothing we will be right back with you with our fantasy football rankings let’s Go okay Jaylen let’s go Jaylen float like a butterfly sting like a bee fantasy Rider last jacket that is that is fresh looking good look good feel good play good that’s right he’s your number one quarterback yes he is yes sir he and Lamar Jackson are very quarterback e uh

But let’s talk about Brock pie in his bounceback game against your commanders uh look no team in the what I appreciate you asking me to give you some bad stats about the commanders because I have about a million and I would like to share them over the next

Hour and a half I’ll just do three no team in the NFL has allowed more fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks this season than my Washington commanders no team allows passing touchdowns at a higher rate than my Washington commanders no team has allowed at least

28 points in six straight games like my Washington commanders Brock pie he’s got his players wearing his jacket like you know they rallying they rallying they rallying they rallying I’m just telling you yeah Brock py gonna have a big game qb4 if I will say this as well stupid

Dev have Brock py no you’d think he would um I will say this though if uh I’m curious what you think about this yeah if Lamar Jackson struggles against Miami yeah and Miami wins has a big game and it’s Lamar throws a bad pick a pick six down down the stretch something like

That and py has like a monster 300 yards four touchdown game against the Comm does that race switch is pretty back in honestly I don’t think it should because of degree of difficulty but it might honestly I think he’s done I think he’s done after how bad that performance was

I think if he’d thrown one touchdown and two picks he’d be he could get back into it but I think people rode him off after that game cuz people already had their doubts and was like they were all confirmed justifiably or not I don’t think he’s 0% but I think it’s really

Uphill if Lamar loses today I think your MVP is whoever wins week 18 between Tyreek Hill and Josh Allen I think that’s your MVP race that point by the way Josh Allen’s like 10 to one now this is the this is the most emotional illogical MVP race discussion I have

Seen in many years this year’s MVP race is just like it’s out of control it’s like it’s it’s it’s so weak to weak who’s your MVP Michael if Lamar loses today we assume Lamar wins today is your is the MV and keep this in mind I’m not

Eligible to win the award but see but I mean not to derail the show more than it typically is I I don’t like the idea of if Lamar Jackson’s the MVP he’s the MVP regardless of the outcome of today’s game like how are we Define the most

Valuable player is it player of the year is it the who played the best at the end of the season is it the guy that you take off his off that team and they wouldn’t be as good like we we’re moving the goal post week to week player by player like weeks ago

Lamar to voter cuz some some people will say like well you took this guy off and like that that’s the the anti Brock P argument is that is it’s like any quarterback in that system with those guys could do that right you know I mean if you combine the best season

Statistically performance-wise and consistency with the person who feels like the team is different when they’re on or off the field is Tyreek Hill yeah you know this too it’s like two is being admitted from this but he’s third in every sports book like he just played a game without Tyreek Hill and played

Very well so I would say it would take a Tyreek Hill to have a CD lamb type of game for because Tyreek Hill was like sixth or seventh in odz right now but listen and this is the dumb argument but like again to your point about all this

Like what like Honestly by this criteria Aaron Rogers should be one of the finalists right you took him off the team was considering Super Bowl champion team and Pi top I know that’s the logic if we don’t have to hyp hypothesize if you took it you

Did take it off the team they fell apart and they fell apart here’s my reason here’s why I would vote for Josh Allen is that there if uh that the bills don’t have 12 men on the field against the Broncos for the field goal and Jake

Elliott doesn’t make a 59 Yer in the rain Josh Allen’s one MVP his stats are so much better uh and the team would have at that point they be going on track to be 13 and four and a two seed and then Allen’s just a un out MVP but

Two little events that he had no control over whatsoever or the reason and he’s got 40 touchdowns again this say if Lamar loses Lamar because if cadarius Tony lines up on the right side that’s another loss for the bill so it’s a lot of that Dave Davis needed to also

Run you know also run the right route you know that’s another one I just think the way that the individual has played what they have been able to control I think think Josh Allen’s been the best quarterback but even even the idea if Lamar Jackson loses or the plays where

Josh Allen quarterbacks it’s not a win it’s not a quarterback stat wins and losses like the Ravens can lose to the Dolphins today but what if Lamar plays great you know so it’s just a it’s been a frustr it feels a lot like last year’s what makes it good allows people to do

What we do that’s true that’s true good bril of it wait Jay Josh Allen okay we gave you MVP P argument what about for week 17 what you think about Josh all well the thing with Josh Allen is that the past two weeks they just haven’t

Been Josh Allen is games I mean last week a little bit more where he had the two rushing touchdowns the week before that against Dallas he does effectively he doesn’t have to do anything he just completes seven passes I think we’re going to see a Josh Allen type of game

Today because I think they’re going to need to throw I think it’s going to be more of the two 70 yards two passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown I think Josh Allen reminds everyone that this offense as much as they run the ball more now it’s still his offense it

Still goes through Josh absolutely and Lawrence curray yeah and I think Kyler Murray reminds us that he could be you know a top 10 fantasy quarterback even though uh Hollywood Brown is out for the season quarterback 12 last week against the improved Chicago Bears defense and

He started he’s has started to pick it up with his rushing with 49 rushing yards and then another 32 uh last week and we know what Philly’s defense represents it hasn’t gotten better at all Tyrod Taylor and Drew lock both had success against this Eagles defense so

You know feel good about Murray navid’s active Lawrence just said I’m interested Matthew second to go about Tu of being overlooked or admitted from this conversation I agree can he insert himself into this conversation with a marquee performance minus jayen Wadd and Raheem Moler opposite Lamar Jackson no

Cool thanks for playing I I rightly or wrongly just hasn’t been an MVP talk to us rightly or wrongly if they’re going to reward if they’re going to reward the Dolphins offense are going to reward Tyreek Hill somehow I’m not saying it’s right or wrong I’m just saying the

Perception is is that Tu is again a little bit like Brock py and that just he’s a he’s a benefit of McDaniel’s genius like I just don’t think Tu gets the I’m not saying that’s right I’m just saying I feel like that’s the narrative The Narrative is it’s very Brock pish

When it comes to not as bad Brock P was like minus 175 for three weeks with that team like but P stats are so much better than twers across the board everything the league passing yards you just sort of see like you just see you see Anan

And and moster like just you know having these big runs and so just again right that’s why he not the favor Tua does not just get any credit I will say this as well I’m I’m down on Tua today I’m a QB 13 I’m outside my top 10 as well 13

Teams 13 different teams are expected are projected to score more points than Miami this week only two quarterbacks this entire year two have scored more than 17 fantasy points against the Ravens they’ve also allowed the fewest passing touchdowns this season now we talked about this earlier Kyle

Hamilton’s out for the as is Brandon Stevens so their secondaries bait up so it is a good match up but no Jaylen waddle no Raheem moard here so now you know his weapons it’s already kind of narrow tree and now it’s it’s Tyreek Hill it’s Cedric Wilson it’s Devon aan

Which is nice dur SMI like I you know Braxton beros like I just I’m nervous I we’ve talked about this before I think this game is a slugfest I I like the under it 46 and A2 he’s my QB 13 this week Lawrence show some love to Jordan

Love will you yeah got he’s quarterback 12 but I do feel differently about uh love than two of this week just based on the matchups alone and based on the fact that Jordan love on a points per game basis has been quarterback seven since week 12 gof had a nice little game

Against Minnesota we saw Jake Browning in week 15 uh he was quarterback eight against this Vikings defense which the Vikings defense over the second half of the Season uh Brian Flores has had them applying pressure but you can still find you know you can find your spots here

And there and uh Jordan love to end this he’s thrown at least two touchdowns in six of his last seven games all right uh Jay Gino Smith what you got we don’t talk about Gino Smith much because he had the amazing season last year where he won comeback player of the year but

His past two starts two starts too against Dallas he played the best game of his entire career he went blow for blow with Dak Prescott who at the time was the MVP favorite and then last week in a game that no one watched cuz Seattle Tennessee he led them down the

Field and he won that game and uh and he was excellent so I think Gino even though statistically it hasn’t been quite the same even though he’s been overshadowed by Drew lock and getting hurt uh he’s still having an excellent season and he gets a pretty favorable

Match up against the Steelers team that doesn’t have any safeties anymore all right uh running backs uh and the Revelation that is or has been KY Williams Matthew yeah look since returning in week 12 he’s had at least 22 touches not a typo 22 touches in every single game no running back has

More touches inside an opponent’s 10 yard line in go tog go situations than Kiren Williams in that stretch by the way running backs had see at least 15 touches against the Giants and again he’s had 22 in every game since he returned running backs that have seen at

Least 15 touches against your New York Giants are averaging 18.3 fantasy points per game re now Giant news to me um shareholder Sean start three Kar and du Zeke zamir hn was going to sit hn until the news this morning leaning Zeke now because of potential game Flow I think he gets a

Lot of volume regardless I agree with you shareholder Shan that he does get a lot of volume regardless bayy zappy likes to check down to him but again just I I’m I’m just going like who’s more likely to score points the dolphins of the Patriots like it’s

The Dolphins like so you’re like who’s I I I would start aan and I would sit Ezekiel Elliott even though I do think Zeke’s going to be fine today but like because because volume will get you there but like is that it’s between those two I think

Well start three yeah I’m starting I’m starting to me Ken Williams zamir white Leon aan is that’s who I would got it just quietly spoke because no one thinks about this because people don’t put up big rushing numbers against the Ravens that’s not because the Ravens have a

Good rushing defense is because the Ravens are just leading in every single game because they’re so Good by efficiency on a play-by-play basis their rushing defenses below average you can run on the Ravens and the offensive life of the dolphins getting a bit healthier hen particularly if you’re in a matchup

Where you need upside like who has more upside than Deon Anan that’s the fastest guy I’ve ever seen in my life yeah yeah no that’s pretty good and he’s seen me right yes aggressive Dole uh Jay not even that aggressive this is more of Just A donw J unless free popcorn day

And then I’m like you know yes and it’s you saying Bal in Beijing yeah exactly who was it was it might have been you earlier Matthew you weren’t uh high on probably you weren’t high on James Cook rushing against the Patriots what was that you well it might as well

Be Mak I’m not that high on him today I know that James Cook he will have propelled a lot of people through their season but this is as difficult of a matchup as he gets you just cannot run on the Patriots their run defense is excellent right there with Atlanta and

Chicago is the best in the NFL right now so cook the thing about him is his skill set is Diversified how are they against pass catch and running backs how are they in that category don’t know specifically Michael but I do think that James Cook just the nature of his game

Is that he will give you some production but I don’t think it’s going to be just running through I’m no I’ll I’ll just tell you this like again very disappointing production fantasy wise last week Chargers games but but the under I mean the volume was still there

But the production was still there as well I I you know I don’t think you’re going away from that YouTube mik Mike watching on YouTube Aaron Jones Jamar Chase James Cook Nico and at tight end pick one can K TM or Tommy Trimble Don con that’s the easy one as well you

Can’t start Tamm come on we’re all joh you can’t start or Tommy Trumble you can’t start TM Hill like come on we’re all on Jawan Johnson today Mike against stupid Deb this got to be tell Mike that if Jawan Johnson is available to pick

Him up there you go I you just did thank you very much Tommy trumbl I know Tommy trumble’s been coming on a little bit but you know I just i’ rather Josh Allen throw me balls than than Bryce young uh so I’m GNA say concade here for me in

Terms of uh these three I definitely think you’re starting James I like all of them I guess I I probably benching Aaron Jones in that one like Nico Collins is a top 10 wide receiver for me at home against Tennessee with CJ stack I think you’re starting Collins I think you’re

Starting James Cook so now it’s Jamar Chase versus Aaron Jones I if Jamar Chase is active seeff SNES out again I don’t think you could screw that up because I like all four guys Mike but Aaron Jones is actually who I think I would bench there okay uh Lawrence your

Thoughts on DeAndre Swift yeah we wouldn’t bench DeAndre Swift especially going up against Arizona who allows the most points per game in fantasy two running backs have we said run funnel today I don’t think we said run funnel we’ll throw it in there right now talking about the Cardinals that run

Funnel defense has had two straight games where they’ve allowed a running back to go for at least 110 rushing yards we saw DeAndre Swift go for 92 on 20 carries and he finally got in the end zone uh last week so we definitely like him a lot there running back seven there

For Matthew is definitely appropriate all right uh little deeper down the running back rankings you said you bench Aaron Jones in that scenario uh Matthew but he still is just outside your top 15 I’m a running back 16 as you see there in your screen look what’s been nice is

They’ve finally freed Aaron Jones back-to-back games with 17 or more touches had only two such games prior to this last two game stretch AJ Dylan clearly dealing with a thumb there as well they’re banged up in the receiving core Christian Watson’s not going to play davien Wix is questionable we do

Expect Jaden Reed back tonight but still and you’ve got Romeo dubs but they’re banged up in the pass catching Department so Aaron Jones who again back toback games with 17 or more touches faces a Vikings defense that’s allowed at least 100 yards from scrimmage to a opposing running back in three of the

Past four games I have Aaron Jones at running back 16 free Aaron Jones uh Lawrence Austin Eckler yeah haven’t liked him a lot recently in fantasy but I love him this week against Denver because in his past five games he’s had one game over 12 points and it was

Against Denver who allow the second most fantasy points per game to running backs fire up back again Austin ekler in your fantasy Championship all right and Jay ban Robinson yeah it’s not a great match up for bean against a really strong rushing defense but I think just the strides that he’s shown particularly

Last week I he looked incredible against the Colts I think you have to start him in in every league but it wouldn’t be expect the amazing things all right uh running backs 21 through 30 if we can throw those on the screen uh Matthew how you feeling about jayen Warren at

Seattle today I kind of like Jaylen Warren I mean first off he’s not n Harris Jay boy uh his two highest snap shares share rates of the season have both come in the last two weeks as well TW back toback games with an over 20% Target share on the road at Seattle the

Expectation here is I think Mason Rudolph got a little lucky last week against the Bengals I think going to be a little bit of an Awakening Awakening here for Mason Rudolph so I do think Under Pressure I think he’ll be dumping off a little bit more to Jaylen Warren I

Think I think they’ll be down and trailing in this game he’s my running back 23 I think Jaylen Warren’s a very viable Flex today all right uh pick one for Flex zamir White Michael Pitman Devonte Smith or jayed Warren and standard scoring I think it’s got to be

Pitman Pitman by the way plays for stupid Deb gonna have a monster game here but just honestly like like he just gets such a massive massive Target share I get it the Raiders have played unbelievable defense if you wanted to go Devonte Smith I wouldn’t argue it but

The concern with Devonte Smith is AJ Brown Dallas got her Herz Swift they’re playing the Cardinals they could just be up big I’m worried about that zamir white we like I like him a lot more than Jaylen waren but I I think it’s got to be Pitman and just the he’s had such

Great volume throughout this entire season I think there’s floor and upside again he’s starting for stupid Dev he’s gonna like go off I’m telling you I promise you big game coming for Pitman Jay does Derrick Henry go off against Houston today I don’t think so Derrick Henry’s averaging 3.9 yards per carry on

The season he’s on dev’s team he is on devs okay well no all right no he does go off there no I think Henry’s going to struggle and look as I mentioned before Houston’s dline is really banged up even though Will Anderson is active but this

Has been the number six run defense in the NFL this season Henry just seems to have zero acceleration it like he needs so much space to be able to get going uh so I think that he will get some work and he get the goal line carries but I

Wouldn’t expect a huge day from Henry what’s your expectations for Nai Harris well I like Jaylen Warren as well but also like Naji Harrison when you talking about today we’re an antii Harris show today because we talk about you know we talk about having a better chance to score a

Touchdown I think that’ll be niji Harris against Seattle who’s the sixth worst Uh Russian defense and he has yet to be out carried by Jaylen Warren this season okay uh wide receivers Matthew you kind of gave us a little sneak preview on the nicoo Collins conversation he is in your top 10 number

S s yeah he is and you see Pitman right there at eight you know I’m not just uh saying that for the jokes there I do love Pitman I love Nico Collins think about those first 13 weeks when he played his full games with CJ Stout he

Was wide receiver nine on a points per game basis right at home this season all seven of his touchdowns have come at home he’s averaging 23 fantasy points per game as well tennessy top five in terms of most fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers so Nico Collins

Getting CJ St back at home in a good matchup easy top seven play for me Lawrence Matthew’s already said how much he loves Rashid rice today how about you yeah I’ll just you know drive that home a little more there rasid rice clearly their number one receiver um 32 Targets

In his four previous games we just saw George Pickins come from the fantasy football dead for almost 200 yards against Cincinnati that’s not really his type of game that’s not his play but you know going against Cincinnati who allows a six most points to Fantasy receivers you must feel extremely great about

Young rasheid rice Damen needs us to pick three in PPR Jonathan Taylor Chris ol rashed rice and puker looking for that ship Happy New Year to you too Damen I love people that say ship yeah it’s very grammatically correct to go ship as opposed to chip yeah I agree

With that I really we’re big on grammar here um for me I think look I I think you got to start Jonathan Taylor right so now it’s which wide receiver are you’re benching and I’ll just tell you so just so you know so I have a l at

Nine I have Rashi rice at 6 I have puka at uh where do I have Puka Puka at 12 I think right no I am at 10 I’m at 10 puka you’re benching but I mean I think they all have huge games I don’t again I don’t I don’t think you

Could screw this up but I’m going to go olve Rice and Taylor and I’m benching puka just because it could be a coopa cup game we’ve seen Demarcus Robinson get in it’s the Giants and Tyrod Taylor that could be a defensive scorer right PUK would be who I uh who I would bench

Here but again I don’t think you can screw it up because I do think all three all four of those guys have big games today Damen schs I like that name the last name biggy schs be name for the ship schs that anyway Michael just gave you your

Team name next year if you haven’t done it already biggie schs um come on that’s great that’s awesome come on stop good uh Jay we talked a lot about Baker Mayfield Let’s uh big up Mike Evans no Marshall and ladimore no Marshall and lore for Mike Evans time no

Fights Mike Evans noje so you feel great that he’s going to win the game and that’s all he really needs to do these days to put up big fantasy days he’s got such an amazing connection with Baker Mayfield Saints defense has really struggled the past couple of months so I

Think Evans has a big game all right let’s keep that theme going Matthew with Chris Godwin Chris Godwin is by wide receiver 17 he’s had three straight games now with a Target share above 30% he’s had at least three deep Targets in each one of those games Saints have faced the

Third most slot targets the season that’s what a place that you can always attack New Orleans is the middle of the field Bakers playing well Godwin starting to look like Godwin again my wide receiver 17 in a nice matchup with New Orleans Jay uh what are you doing

With Stefan digs today I’m sium and I’m not that worried about it to be honest you mentioned Matthew the taret chare which has been really healthy around 30% he’s not playing as many snaps I don’t understand that they take him off the field third Downs or off which just

Weird I think there must be something going on there but at the same time this is a matchup where I think they will need to throw I think Diggs will finally get right here’s a question for you I mentioned this before but I’m just curious like literally my friend who

Called me during the commercial break he’s in a big money League he’s sweating it Rashid Rice versus Stefan Diggs what would you say rash rice where would you go I’m going rice damn it it’s like that that’s cuz I’m actually starting rice today in multiple

Spots so so I was think I was thinking about this as productive stupid dev has Rashid rice on his team as well you know he’s going to go off but but okay but I’m glad you okay this is philosophical in nature yeah when you talked about the target

Share being there it’s like it’s not like he’s hurt it’s not like you know he’s not playing a lot like just because he hasn’t been productive doesn’t mean he can’t or won’t be he still digs and I hate to say he’s due but when you’re getting 30% of the Target still it’s

Coming and I and I I would just hate to be in the championship and Stefan digs is sitting on my bench I’m like damn it I didn’t draft Stefan digs in the first two to three rounds to not play my champ I a fascinating kind of philosophical discussion real quick because I’ll just

No because it is I’m with you some it’s mental but I’ll give you an example I’ll play the opposite side of that all right right because right that’s the AR he’s Stefon digs Rashid rice is a rookie and Mom rash rice just is digs I’m just saying but it’s

My guy that’s it’s between rice and and and I suggested rice as well just you know I mean my rankings hav you know have rice at six and whatever we talked about rice earlier yeah here’s the other thing so I benched Joe flacko on Thursday night right and in the in

The league that I’m playing against devb my two quarterbacks that have been riding for a while have been hurs and FL and even though he went off that was the right decision it was on some level except I mean my option was my thought was again Flo had been o had been very

Volume based and um it was you know they were the number one scoring defense against quarterbacks this entire year uh Flaco was without Amari Cooper his entire it was a very low total game and so if you look at Flaco’s production prior that game it all been very volume

Based he’s throwing it 40 times a game because they get into these shootouts so I didn’t expect the volume to be there he’s you know very tough match up and he’s losing his number one wide receiver but in retrospect I’m also like man like whatever the guy’s been the hottest

Quarterback in fantasy for a month and I just benched him I got cute because I was just like you know oh well J pet should have to throw a lot against San Francisco or whatever I feel like if you if you go with Diggs over right it is one of those

Things it’s like if Diggs goes off on your bench it’s like a he step on Diggs but if he if he bombs you’re like I should have seen this coming he’s been he’s been a he’s been outside the top 50 of wide receivers for 6 weeks like not

Like one or two bad games it’s been a month and a half and Rashid rice can your gu start both is there another option at bench no pukas his other guy rash rice has nine plus targets from Patrick Mahomes each of the past five games if Rashid rice if his name if he

Had the exact same production same quarterback everything if his name was Chris O then you would be starting Rashid rice over digs and it’s not even close it’s just people still haven’t clicked in that rash rice is Rashid rice no it’s not that the production speaks for itself he’s no

Longer rookie it’s week 17 it’s really just the idea of Stefan Diggs it’s just an idea at this point though because done it in so long that’s fair yeah we have not we have not seen it that that’s there’s the point way to drop the mic on

Mic there to go um so rashed rice it is yeah especially because stupid dev has Dev go off where where we oh Lawrence uh Brandon iuk we don’t have this issue Brandon iuk we starting Brandon iay we’re definitely starting auka just it’s with Washington Washington

Commanders but on a broader note uh I 65 catches 1,200 yards and 6 TDS this season that’s a pro bowl season and he’s not even thought of as well wasn’t as the best receiv team but you know obviously we feeling great about auk versus the commanders all right let’s

Speed this up and do this uh full screen style yeah shall we uh Matthew jsn my wide receiver 27 he’s had at least 12 fantasy points and three of the past four game Steelers allow the fourth most yards to the slot jsn should be a top 30

Play today Lawrence T Higgins I believe he’d be good to start start whether Jamar Chase plays or not three touchdowns in his last two games and his finish as a top 10 receiver in two straight weeks and Jay Calvin Ridley yeah I understand the concerns around Calvin Ridley he’s still had 34 targets

The past three weeks I didn’t think CJ Beth was that bad when he came in uh against the Bengals so I think the Calvin Ridley is still viable if not inspiring all right pop Douglas Matthew yeah we’ve talked about him a few times during the show since week eight he’s

Got a 23% Target share with at least five receptions in every game but one over that stretch but bills also struggle against a slot they allow the fourth highest catch rate to the slot where Douglas uh lines up quite a bit again no Hunter Henry in this game

Either uh Rashid Shahed Jay yeah Rashid Shahed is set at 36 and a half receiving yards on DraftKings to me that is way too low this Bucks team has they’ve really struggled in pasty they give off explosive plays also Shaquille Barrett he’s their only pass rusher and he’s out

So now the number one pass rusher is Yaya diabi who I thought was a defensive midfield for Real Madrid but now he’s their signant pass Russia and I think they’re going to struggle and rashed gets rashed gets open for one deep hey Lawrence Jerry Judy catching passes from

Jared St even without Corin suting in the lineup you know I’m still nervous about Judy and going against the Chargers who allow the third most fantasy points to receivers he’s got one game over 75 yards this season one touchdown this season and no game with seven or more targets and you mentioned

It Michael jar stood him under center today all right all right tight ends Trey McBride Matthew yeah Trey McBride by the way it’s now Rashid she now down to 36 and a half I just bet that I’m just I’m bet I’m right now bet I love that I totally

Agree with Jay’s bet go Tay McBride is my tight end three as well since taking over the starter the seventh highest Target share Target share among all players not tight ends every player in the NFL only six of them have a higher Target share than Trey McBride since he

Became the starter tight ends that have seen at least six targets against the Eagles averaging over 16 fantasy points per game five of the six of them have scored as well death taxes start your tight ends against the Eagles Lawrence isaah likely um Matthew has him here at

Tight end five and that’s exactly what he’s been on a points per game basis in fantasy since taking over from Mark Andrews in week 12 uh he’s been second on on the team in targets also in that same span Miami does allow the eigh Fest

Points to uh tight ends but in with the Ravens offense it is made to get the ball to the tight end so we like likely Jay Dalton Schulz yeah D Schultz I think is’s in line for a pretty good day had 11 targets last week we just haven’t

Seen much of this offense without tank Dell with CJ strad and so I think that Schulz along with Noah Brown and NCO Collins are going to get plenty of work Matthew you already told us how much you like Gerald ever with all the other absences from the Chargers th% he’s my

Tight end 12 23% Target share over the last three games with at least five receptions in each of those games no Josh Allen sorry no Keenan Allen or Josh Palmer no team has allowed more uh fantasy points to tight ends this season than Gerald Everett the stickman should

Be looking for him early in offs against Denver Jay Pat fryou so I built my show League fantasy team around Pat fryou didn’t work out he has 243 yards on the season four targets for 16 yards last week with uh a couple weeks ago so I don’t think that Pat fry moov should

Be started in many leges today all right start your new year off right with an NFC North Showdown Packers Vikings both looking to keep their playoff hopes alive Sunday 7 Eastern on NBC and peacock also starring Matthew Barry for my New Year’s resolution I just want to practice something that I’m really not

Particularly good at in all aspects of my life and that’s patience everybody’s ever played fantasy football with me Matthew Barry can attest I lap the field in the transaction Department it’s actually kind of like a sickness uh um it’s it’s cost me a lot of time uh a lot

Of peace of mind and the worst part is when every player that does anything at one point was on your roster if I had just kept him and I got a lot of stories like that that I won’t waste your time with but really going in the next year I

Want to draft my team I want to trust my research I want to trust the roto world fantasy guide that I purchased and I’m just going to stick with my team and I’m not going to go trading away everybody and cutting everybody and trying to get cute next thing you know I’m looking

Back with regret I don’t want to live with regret in 2024 I just want to be happy with my decision making I’m going make the decision to go to break right now beer goggles are coming up Next Happy New Year from DJ Moore ready to take on the Falcons ready to deliver you a fantasy Championship or a third place finish and get get your money back as casee may be or maybe just Pride maybe in a toilet bowl are you anybody in leagues like

Dynasty leagues where like got a toilet B get extra lottery balls yeah I love that kind of stuff um there’s always something to play for all right it’s time to play beer goggles y’all know what it is scale of one to five beers how many does it take for these guys to

Feel good about these starts Matthew start you off with George pickings I need three beers I want three beers last 10 games Seahawks allow the fifth fewest yards per game on deep pass which is obviously a lot of pickings game 34% of his total fantasy points this year have

Come on his five touchdowns do you think he gets into the endone how lucky do you feel since week eight he has only one game with more than four receptions so it’s just I I’d want three beers here I’m nervous about picking on the road I’m nervous about Mason Rudolph that’s

Such a tough place to play at Seattle this is an important game for the Seahawks three beers for uh Pickins who’s my wide receiver 30 today uh Jay Tyler Lockett two beers for Tyler lock Locker not a ton of ceiling in tile locket game these days but there is a

Lot of flaw and this Pittsburgh team is really banged up on defense no safeties left as we mentioned so I think Locker is a pretty safe play We spared you gave Lawrence Nai Harris n you know usually it’s three beers for me with nii but I’m

Going to say just one beard for me he’s coming off a 19 carry 78 yard one TD performance now goes against uh the cawks who allow the six most fantasy points to running backs we saw Derek Henry have uh 80 eight yards in the touchdown last week versus them as well

So just give me one beer for NJ all right Titans Texans Matthew Derrick Henry how many beers this the first time Derrick Henry ever been on this list it might have S two beers two beers again he’s on stupid devs team I think he’s going to have a monster game he’s had

Five straight games with at least 18 or more touches seven rushing touchdowns in his past five games now playing Houston as well when he played them earlier this year in week 15 he had just nine yards on 15 carries had that brutal game as well he’s played under 50% of the snaps

In three the last four they’re they’re underdogs in this game but I don’t know he’s Derk Henry he’s got always pretty good shot at getting into the end zone not stupid dev’s team two beers two beers he’s my running back 22 highend highend Flex lowend rb2 this

Week uh Jay DeAndre Hopkins who was getting tightened up in the locker room during the interview while he was playing video games so seem to be in good spirits inde yeah tighten up me a haircut I I it’s been a long time since I’ve here I wouldn’t know yeah uh two beers

For DeAndre Hopkins it’s been an inconsistent season for dehop but he’s had much more success with Will Levis than with Ryan tanah Hill I think against the Houston defense that uh just got eviscerated by Joe Flaco uh I think that he will have some success what about Deon single ter Lawrence you know

Only two beers for me only 12 Touches for 63 yards last week but they were getting blown out by the Browns so there was no need for them to keep trying to run the ball week 15 he it shifted back to him being the lead back 30 touches

170 yards so now you got CJ stride back the offense is going to be on all cylinders again all right uh Chargers Broncos Matthew Austin Eckler another look just see the times are changing we got Derrick Henry got Austin Eckler and beer goggles right I’m gonna say one

Beer just one beer for Austin Eckler proud fantasy life.com investor look when you think about week 14 he played to Denver for the first time this year he had 21 fantasy points he’s had at least 85 yards from scrimmage in two of the past three with almost a 20% Target

Share as well over the last four weeks Broncos allowed the fourth most fantasy points to opposing running backs I’m sorry the eighth most fantasy points to opposing running backs and by the way moving from Russell Wilson to Jared STM is Shawn pton waving the White Flag they’re not making the playoffs and not

Locker room knows it hard to see them coming out all fired up in this one the Bron agreed all right yeah uh Jay Quinton Johnston so I understand that the Chargers don’t have any other receivers at the moment but I just don’t think Quinton Johnson’s very good and I don’t

Trust his passing offense I don’t trust the stick man to a great deal so four beers for me on Quinton Johnson how many need to start up Jared Judy four beers and I could just Echo what Jay just said about Quinton Johnson and use it to for Jared Judy even though courland Sutton’s

Not there he still hasn’t done anything this season with his one touchdown Jared stum coming into the fold like you said Matthew they’re waving the White Flag you would think Jerry Judy would benefit from this but I just don’t think the team morale as a whole is they it

Ain’t hitting on anything four beers all right and Packers Viking Sunday Night Football Matthew George’s guy Ty Chandler yeah look you know George it was really weird you’d watch golf at the in August you know what I mean you’d watch golf in August and you know and

You’d be like you know you know uh it’d be like you you’d hear stuff like you’d be like you know oh Bryson is really really struggling with his putting but I like Ty Chandler to be the best back out of the Minnesota you mean like what what

Is going on here but absolutely georgez listen you plus 120 to pull golf’s night man he had there he got the r Shambo took me a second um but Tyson Chandler has had 75% of his team’s running back touches over the last two weeks now Madison’s been in out of the lineup but

Still green base a bottom five run defense over the last month and prior to week 16 that allowed 100 yards rushing to running backs to four straight games Ty Chandler he’s my running back 19 just two beers I think he has a nice game tonight Jay my son Mason was wondering

Whether to start Noah brown or KJ Osborne how many beers for KJ Osborne he not tweet the show or is he only on Tik Tok uh he’s not on Twitter okay but he is on Instagram though you know what you’re raising him right y well I’m

About to say that’s what you want right Mason should start Noah Brown I believe and then I would need four beers for KJ Osborne with the news that Jordan Addison is trending towards playing probably four beers and some absin uh so I don’t want any part of KJ Osborne all

Right and Lawrence Jaden Reed just give me two beers for Jaden Reed Watson and Wix both looking uh iffy to play there Minnesota allows 12 most fantasy points to receivers St Brown has went off against them recently T Higgins and DJ Moore went 400 yards and you know they

Use jayen Reed in a multitude of ways there just two beers for Jaden Reed you know what I missed the most I like Jaden Reed tonight but but Minnesota struggles against the slot yes sir you know what I missed the most the last couple weeks pickup lines oh yeah so Matthews had

Eight beers oh Feeling Good Feeling Good Jay is Jay is lit Jay has had 12 be I don’t know what’s J send some ABS uh Lawrence is had nine yeah this the kind of stuff that happened just before our night in Buffalo yes all right Lawrence

You’re up all right this isn’t uh you know this one isn’t as long as my usual bets it’s only plus 195 but it’s a really good bet when we talking about Kiron Williams who’s in no time share this is a true Workhorse right here at alternate 120 plus rushing yards here

Against these Giants now is high but his past five games he’s averaging 22 carries in right at 120 y That’s the average one game under 21 carries and 114 rushing yards in that same span so do is just balling New York Giants fourth worst rushing defense albeit they’re playing better but you know

Gamewell and Swift just went for 133 for them so there you have it my man Kiron Williams all right okay so Matthew it’s championship week this is all about the big names so what better time to talk about DJ Chuck Jr over 23 and a half

Receiving yards DJ CH last week he had eight targets and went 6 for 98 I’m throwing out the week against Atlantica so the rain strange game before that 26 56 34 yards he played over 70% of the snaps last week he’s effectively the wide receiver two in this offense now

How is he 23 and a half receiving yards against a bad pass defense uh with Bryce young seemingly to have figured some things out so DJ Chu he goes for 24 yards that’s all you need 24 yards from DJ CH so 24 yards for K Williams sorry

What was it K Williams 120 rushing yards at plus 195 God you love that plus love the Plus for for for example sequan at 120 rush yards is plus 650 right right that’s tough that’s tough that’s tough I do think has a monster game I

Like both bets think yeah I like both I like I like both bets but I I’m going to take the the 24 yards thereat no like like if it was just K Williams over it’s easy but the plus money makes it there’s a reason it’s a

Plus money yeah might be I I actually think it hits but you know I’m going to go with Jay I’m going to go home with Jay but keep your phone on listen I might roll through later oh there you are no you like that oh yeah that single

Cam right there give me your New Year’s resolution it’s very simple I will never ever draft a player that is coached by Arthur Smith Never I don’t care if Arthur Smith becomes an offenseive coordinator for the Ottawa Senators I will never play I will I will not draft

I will not draft a defense from that team or a forward whatever it is they do in hockey I don’t care is if AR coaching in a professional sport I will never Co I will never draft a player the usage is too insane it makes no sense it’s not

Rational and don’t forget he was fined by the league for cheating remember that bean migraine game that he didn’t report the league finded him and the Falcons they find find they find him for cheating so yes I will never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever draft a

Player that has Arthur Smith as his coach that’s my New Year’s resolution for this year and every year I’m alive on this Earth Arthur Smith could be the defensive coordinator and you still wouldn’t take an offensive player absolutely not he could donate a k to me

And I still would not draft one of his players we’ll be back Uh so this is the last last call um it would take a massive uh self-destruction for Matthew to lose that uh Le right you know so but you never know we’ll recognize uh you officially next week but you just got you got to bring it home so you could win the show League

Championship and bar trivia to feel like the fix are you just that good or is it fix in is fixes in just need to make sure that I answer last on every question would you like to go last on everyone yeah I mean whatever I got you I got nothing Matthew you’re
