12-9: Week 14 Recap, Mike Evans Injury, DeAndre Washington's Dominance

or suffer the consequences. Listen, donnit Yeah, welcome yours by Bay from Fine God Bro say Francis practice stand ball, ladies and gentlemen, yours with that? We what are you inside of Studio thirty four? This is the VFFS His Frank Standfell. I am Greg Sousman and we're still alive. Baby. What's going on? Frankie? Hey, what's happening? Happy Monday to your week fourteen nearly in the books. Lots to talk about from a fantasy football perspective. Just an absolute crazy,

crazy Sunday. Lots of injuries, a lot of surprising performances, a lot of duds as well. Greg, how are you doing, buddy? I'm doing all right, man. I was shocked this morning when you walked in, You're like, you know we lost right, Like no, no, I did not found out at the

same time as you. I was stunned. The BFFs were up fifty points in the pit League going into Sunday Night Football against the fantasy task Jim Day who has Todd Gurley, Robert Woods and the Seattle Seahawks defense Greig And what's crazy is so he needs these two RAMS players to go off against his own defense. The only thing that couldn't happen was a pick six happening. Robert Woods hasn't scored a touchdown all season long. Now one on the receiving your BFFs loose, shout out the fantasy tags.

He pulls it out. Man, unbelievable. Man, that sucks. That sucked. But yesterday it was a day full of injuries, a a crushing, crushing, crushing day of injuries. I want to start with the latest one that I just saw bray cross my timeline. That's Calvin Ridley. Calvin really says he's out for the season for the Atlanta Falcons. Obviously only two more weeks the fantasy season, three more weeks of the regular season. Calval Ridley is done obviously, Atlanta in

a tough spot this week in San Francisco. So you'll you have Calvin, you'll have who the Jones probably don't want to pick up the Russell gage to do that thing against San Francisco. Although yesterday defense not great, mom, No, they weren't great. It's very hard to go into New Orleans in the super Dome and look good as a defense. That was probably the most fun game of the year. We'll get to that a little bit later on. But

you mentioned Calvin Ridley. This really comes at a bad time, Greg, because you know, we start off the show, you know, hint again all the injuries that we had, and this Calvin Ridley won while we knew about it. It happened yesterday. He left at halftime. We didn't know that it was

going to be this severe. So now we're dealing with Mike Evans and d J. Chark and Calvin Ridley is just another one of those major injuries in the fantasy football season down the stretch here, and he was dominating recently. Greg four straight games at least ninety yards or a touchdown a touchdown in three of those four games. Scored a touchdown yesterday before he left. So if you started him, he potentially helped you move on to the next round.

But you will not have him in week fifteen and beyond. It's a really big blow for a young player that was really coming down. Greg, all right, let me start off in Atlanta. Then the Atlanta fall can destroy the Carolina Panthers. Yesterday man Matt Ryan led the way, DeVante Freeman found the end zone for the first time this season for Carolina. Ian Thomas got in the end zone. So this, uh, this destruction at the hands of Atlanta

crippling Perry Fuels Carolina Panthers. Predictable, Yes, very predictable here. Uh, you know, we didn't necessarily know which Panthers team was gonna show up no Ron Rivera, and the answer unequivocally was a team that is basically mailing it in now that they fired their head coach, Ron Rivera. They get blown out in Atlanta Divisional game forty to twenty. Here you mentioned DeVonta Freeman a lot of first yesterday, Greg, Devantay Freeman first rushing touchdown, Mike Williams and Robert Woods

against your bfs. Of course, first receiving touchdowns of the season. Better late than never. But I would consider Devantay Freeman a winner. Greg. You know, since he has returned, he is dominating the Snaps. He played sixties scent of the Snaps yesterday. Yes, it is a tougher match up against San Francisco heading into next week. But I think if you do want to attack the San Francisco forty niners one way, it's better to do so on the ground than through the air. I mean, their secondary has been

great all year. Of course, they have an injury to Richard Sherman, so we'll have to monitor that. But DeVonta Freeman seventeen carries, eighty four yards and a touchdown. We knew this was a good spot against Carolina. You want to start all of your running backs against the Carolina Panthers. Yes, they are that bad. I had Freeman as a high

nd RB two. I think that he was, you know, on a team that doesn't have a lot of winners, Greg, the Atlanta Falcons probably the biggest winner yesterday on a team that doesn't have a lot of winners, DeVonta Freeman was probably the biggest winner for the Atlanta Falcons. Absolutely winner yesterday. He performed better than I thought yards and two touchdowns. Still not as good as Ryan t. You mentioned Richard Sherman, you mentioned the San Francisco four Niners.

It was arguably the game of the day. The fourty Niners defeated the New Orleans Saints on a last minute Robbie goldfield goal. Crazy game. It was a crazy, crazy game where Jimmy g lad the way for San Francisco Drew Brees. Two of them went head to head toe to tell, and it's an awesome, awesome contest down there in the Superdome. You know how we like to hold ourselves accountable here on the BFS, Greg, we give out

apologies often. I think now is the time to apologize to both of the quarterbacks in this game, because we both said we we weren't really in on Drew Brees heading into last week. Nobody could have seen this coming. Yes, you could have said, you know, games in the Superdome tend to trend towards the over. That's fine, but nobody saw forty eight to forty six, Kyle Shanahan playing out all the stops, having Emmanuel Sanders throw touchdowns are really

really fun game all around. But I think that this was a big game for Jimmy Garoppolo in terms of his development and its confidence, Greg, because we have seen some big games at a Jimmy G over the past month or so. But against the Arizona Cardinals, you know the Saints, your defense is solid. I would say it's probably above average. Is not an elite defense by any means. They do get a lot of pressure. So that's why I worried about Jimmy G in this spot. But man,

that offensive line held up. He was really good. I mean, Rappolo really got it done yesterday. So if you have managed to use one of him or Drew Brees and Super flex League or somehow in a one quarterback league huge winners from yesterday, Garoppolo getting it done thrown a bomb to Emmanuel Sanders. I know you had your dilemma, Greg about who to start in your flex I told you I liked Emmanuel Sanders matchup, but I didn't have enough conviction to tell you to put him in your lineup.

But he was, you know, another huge winner yesterday. Both him and Deebo Samuel at least eight targets eating each in this game. And the answer to who is the back to own in the forty nights backfield's for he Moster and it's not close. A whole lot of Raheemoster yesterday for San Francisco. Matt Brita was obviously worked in there, which which was nice to see. The little change of pace for he most or was he every down back?

Tevin Coleman played like three snaps all game, got pushed back on a third and one third quarter and that was eight for Devin Coleman. You could drop him six of the snatch for he Moster in this game, just eighteen percent for Matt Breed a sixteen percent for Tevin Coleman. So if you managed to pick up Raheem Mooster, I think that he is a legitimate ARB two moving forward.

I agree, and of course that will change next week when they go to Jeff Wilson Jr. Right now, I totally agree where he Oaster, absolutely somebody can rely on. On the other side. As you said, we shied away from both these offenses in a tough game. But Latavia's Murray wasn't awful in this one. In this spot, he's been a desperation flex. I thought that was interesting. Obviously, Alvi Kamara out snapped him heavily out of carried him heavily.

The whole deal. Ladavias Murray wasn't a zero. He was not seven carries for sixty nine yards gigety nine point nine yards per attempt for Latavius Murray. Alvin Kamara, Man, what is going on? It tweeted this how yesterday drink in a season where just crazy things happened. This happens every fantasy football season. So I'm not just gonna say this is the craziest season of all time, because there

are crazy things that happened every single season. And I understand touchdown regression was going to hit Alvin Kamara at something, But this guy has not scored a touchdown since Week three. He has two touchdowns on the season. They both came in Week three. What is going on with Alvin Kamara right now? Greg? I will tell you I don't think that he is healthy. He has not looked the same since he has returned from that ankle injury. I think that Kamara has been one of the biggest losers, not

just this week but recently. And if Jared Cook is out next week, Josh Hill We're back might actually be a thing. Josh Hill season returns just in time to when you're a championship.

Even the year potentially between San Francisco New Orleans, any of the San Francisco four Niners defeating New Orleans in New Orleans, which means they are in control of her own destiny of that number one overall seed in the NFC A. How do you leave George Kittle in one on one coverage in that situation fourth and two? You have to know who they're gonna go to there, he is the go to guy. You

leave him in single coverage. I mean it was almost too easy for the San Francisco forty Niners at that point wild and it came on fourth down. Which is just insane. He's getting his face mask pulled around and he's still just driving people down the field. Just crazy game man, it was crazy. I mean the face mask and him just dragging dudes down. It was nuts wild.

It's like one of those things you see in a cartoon or a movie, right, like the Big Kid kind of like the like the Jerome Bennetts commercial with the on your Flag football team. He's just like knocking people around. He's like dragging some dude on his back. That was basically George Kittle yesterday. Yeah, George Kittle was an absolute animal yesterday for the San Francisco fourt Niners and what was also a great game. He saw Kansas City and

New England. What does New England have left? That's the question. More. Kansas City goes into Foxboro picks up a victory as the Patriots were not able to score from inside the five and the game the last time you saw that Patriots get all the way down there and not convert a great play that quarterback for Kansas City getting his hand in there on Julian Edelman. Uh. The Chiefs of course, full of trick plays and treating, including Travis Kelsey rushing

for a touchdown. Not to be out done the Patriots as well with um a flee flicker touchdown to Julian Edelman James White throwing a forty yards or thirty five yard pass. It was a day full of tricks, with Kansas City getting the last laugh. And I'm just gonna give a heads up a warning to Patriots fans or anyone listening or watching right now who lives in the uh the Boston area, that the New England area, How are you gonna boot the Patriots Maine? I like, come on, man,

I heard gave talk about this this morning. They're booing him going into halftime. Yes, this offense is struggling, and you know, some things didn't break right down the stretch and not having a challenge there. You know, the guy clearly did not step out and scored a touchdown to kill Harry on that you know, toe tap down the sideline. And it's unfortunate, but how many things have gone the Patriots way over the past couple of seasons. So it is what it is. You know, Jacoby Meyers should have

held onto that touchdown. Some bad luck involved here. If you started Tom Brady, you're probably not moving on to your to the next round of your fantasy football playoffs, Graig, I think the only player that you can start in this offense right now, confidently is Julian Edelman, And I don't think that it's close even in a good matchup yesterday, Sony Michelle, Dude, Sony Michelle five carries for eight yards?

Are you kidding me? I think James White, Like, I know James mightn't really come as a flex and PPR leagues, but I think, like the only must start player is Julian Edelman, and I think it's obvious. Yeah. And and Patrick Mahomes on the other side. Look, you want to talk about Alvin Kamara not living up to expectations, here, say Kwon Barkley. I know that Patrick Mahomes is dealing with a lot of injuries and they're still winning hands. Yeah,

but he should be good. There was I saw a report that came out earlier before the show started that Andy Reid says that he should be good to go heading into week fifteen. He's clearly not one. He's not playing healthy. They were talking about it on the broadcast yesterday. Yards and a touchdown. He threw that touchdown to Mikole Hardman, which was basically all Hardman, you know, just got the ball barely there and then Mikole Hardman turns on the

jets and scores, uh, blowing past the defender. But ultimately, you know, Patrick Mahomes has not lived up to expectations from a fantasy perspective either. There are no winners in this backfield, Greg Lashawn McCoy eleven carries for thirty nine yards, sure, whatever, that's fine, Like he dominated the workload but didn't really do anything with it. Darwin Thompson four carries for seven yards. Spencer wear was involved. This is just a complete mess.

I would say everybody involved in the for uh the Chiefs backfield or losers? Greg, I would say so because it was the return of Spencer were yesterday who played over the snaps more than Darwin Thompson, more than Lesha lecoy. Yeah, it was. You know, all three of these guys were involved and they've been doing that all season long with the Kansas City Chiefs, but in a tough matchup against the Newland Patriots, nobody was able to step up and

make the most out of it. Uh, Darwin Thompson to have the four receptions, which I guess helped his day in a PPR league, but overall not great. Kelsey scores the rushing touchdown on the trick player. As you mentioned, Tyreek Hill, back to back tough games. But again Patrick Mahomes not himself and this was a tough matchup. I think if I told you beforehand that you would have wind up with six verse sixty two in a game that the Chiefs only scored twenty three points out of

Tyreek Hill, you would be okay with it. You don't love it. But he didn't completely done in this game. No, he didn't. I a Tyreek Hill guy. Um, he didn't. Dog. He was a little loser, more of an a s. Speaking of winners losers, let's talk more about that in a segment. We'd like to call winners losers in just not playing. We're losers, losers. We're losers here on the BFFs losers. You suck. You are one pathetic loser, and oh man, I have no idea what's going on? All

right there? You winners losers and right here on the Sports Grid Network, thanks for joining us here on Pluto TV. Of course we hit on the Chiefs, We hit on the UH New England Patriots. Let's keep going. Baltimore Ravens and the Buffalo Bills. Good game out there in Orchard Park in Buffalo. With Baltimore UH surviving that game against the Bills. Buffalo had a chance, could not get it done. Lamar Jackson does his thing, um and the Ravens get by Buffalo ranky, Yes they do. They end up winning

by a touchdown. I know the spread closed right around six six and a half, so potentially a very big win for Ravens betters or a tough loss for some of the Bills betterers. I know we have a few of those here on the network. Lamar Jackson only rushes for forty yards. It's almost like you consider that a down game at this point. Still throws for three touchdowns. We've got to see what's going on with Mark Andrews greg because he's been one of the best tight ends

all season long from a fantasy football perspective. He left this game early due to a continue in his leg. As of now, it doesn't sound too serious, but monitored that throughout the week. If you are a Mark Andrew's owner and you have a dead roster spot, you might want to cover yourself by picking up a Hayden Hurst

as a tight end handcuff. I didn't know that those were the thing, but in this Ravens offense, you do want whatever tight end is going to be starting and running the most routes because Lamar Jackson does like to throw to the tight end. We saw Hayden Hurst really a long sixty one yard touchdown yesterday. Hollywood Brown tough match up here against the Buffalo Bill secondary. Three receptions minus two yards. A very clear loser is Hollywood Brown.

On the other side, Greg Devin Singletary Seventeen rushes for eighty nine yards. He is the guy, without a doubt. This is now. I think four or five straight weeks seventy percent or more of the snaps for Devin Singletary and he comes through here. You know, the Ravens defense is really good, but I think that you actually can target running backs against him. So don't be completely scared away from this defense. From a fantasy perspective, you can

run a little bit against this Baltimore Ravens defense. When it comes to the receiver's John Brown loser, huge dud. Three receptions for twenty nine yards. Cole Beasley gets in the end zone again. He has now become the most consistent fantasy option over the past three weeks Greg with with John Brown seeing more of those tougher matchups on

the outside. Alrighty, John Brown seeing the matchups. Col Basley extremely reliable here for the Buffalo Bills in any matchup, and that's what Cold Beasley has become for this team. Imagining Mark Andrews and that injury, it seems minor will see the plays this week. Hayden Hurst and Nick Boyle both become options for you off the waiver wire. And it's interesting, Frankie, because the tight ends a lot of

guys out there this week. Yeah, there are a lot of streaming tight ends that we'll talk about on tomorrow show. We do the waiver wire heading into week fifteen for those that are still alive in their Fantasy football playoffs or potentially playing in a consolation bracket, whatever it might be. Uh Ian Thomas is one that's gonna make a lot of sense if Greg Olsen is out. Gotta pay attention to know a fan to see if he's healthy. But

he just had a big game. David and Joke, who comes to mind going up against the Cardinals, and then obviously everything going on here with the Baltimore Ravens. Uh, pay attention to Mark Andrews. If you can't go, I think Hayden Hurst of the two would be the one that I target. I agree with that Hayden Hurrist was running that Mark Andrews route all the way to the end zone to open up that second half. It makes sense he's clearly the one to target for me as well.

Let me go to another injury, Frank, that's always saw in Washington with your boy Darius Guys hurt his knee. An unfortunate loser yesterday was Darius Guys that made Adrian Peterson a big winner in Washington's lost a Green Bay. Absolutely, the Washington Redskins kept this game close, and it sucks for Darius Guys because he was running well early on. I actually put out five prop bets on Twitter yesterday before the one o'clock game started, and Darius Guys prop

was forty and a half rushing yards. He went over that in just five carries, so it looked like he was on his way to having a big day here. But now they're saying they think it's an m c l S frame which would likely keep him out for the rest of the season. It's to the same knee that he suffered the a C L T hair during the preseason of last year. So I don't think they

we'll see Darius Guys again. But as we will talk about on the Waiver Wire Show again tomorrow, Adrian Peterson one of, if not the top waiver wire ad this week twenty carries seventy six yards and a touchdown. You know, Bill Callahan, the interim head coach of Washington, wants to run the football, and we saw that in the games before Darius Guy's return. Adrian Peterson was seeing that big workload.

So I do think that, you know, even in tougher matchups, the volume will be there for Adrian Peterson and this might be the last time that we see Adrian Peterson in a big role for a team. Greg What better way for him to go out from a fantasy football perspective than winning people fantasy playoff matchups and championships. I think it makes a lot of sense. A p back in the mix, ELI back in the mix. It's great man the NFC East. Let's go crushing in man crushing,

Adrian Peter doesn't even Terry McLaurin found the zone yesterday on a circus catch. That was awesome. Another terrible thrill by Tween Haskins. That was all McLaurin. He's very bad.

He is very bad, very very bad. Should feel pretty good about I guess having Daniel Jones. He's not playing, but Daniel Jones has showed more upside thing Dwayne Haskins, for sure. He's certainly better than joying Haskins. There's no doubt about that. Yeahs Now he is. There's no doubt to change that. Daniel Jones is better than Dayne Haskins. Better than tell you that he's better than Drew Lock,

but he's definitely better. Thought was in the second for Green Bay Rodge the loser Man Rogers a big loser yesterday. He's a loser from a fantasy perspective, for sure. I mean he's doing that. Yeah, He's doing what he needs to do to win games in the NFL, which is fine.

I think that's what they've done all season long. Matt Lafleur has really relied on the running backs so far this season, and in games where they have to get out, get and shootouts, in competitive games, those back and forth games. Aaron Rodgers has showed us that he can still put up with the best of them. He could still make all the throws, he could still have monster games, but it's just not a necessity at this point in his career anymore. He is older. They are playing better defense

this year. They're doing just enough to be able to win games, and and that's what how they're going to continue to do this. It's what they've done all season long. But you're right, Greg, I mean, it wouldn't be crazy to imagine benching Aaron Rodgers next week, who is at home against the Chicago Bears. The Bears have been great against quarterbacks this season, so you know we did the fandal hurry up earlier about Waiver wire quarterbacks Gardner, Minshew,

Ryan Fitzpatrick. If they're out there, maybe even a Drew Lock. You gotta look into these matchups here because I don't know that Aaron Rodgers is going to have a big fantasy game against the Chicago Bears. Just hasn't been there all season long. A big bounceback game for Aaron Jones, very big winner, Greg. Yesterday didn't dominate snaps, but that's basically been the case. Do you know the past seven eight weeks, right, He's been between fifty and sixty five

percent of the snaps each of those games. He doesn't dominate snaps, but he did dominate work here. Sixteen carries for a hundred and thirty four yards a rushing touchdown, compared to just seven carries and twenty four yards for Jamal Williams. Aaron Jones was also the leader in targets, receptions, and receiving yards for the Green Bay Packers. Wouldn't surprise me if again he lets you down next week, just because he has been inconsistent. But in these better matchups,

Aaron Jones reminds is what he's capable of. He is a winner. From Week fourteen, he was awesome. He's gonna winner most of this year. I I just did to see where he goes next year. Aaron Jones, he's a solid second round pick, is what it is. I don't know that he's a second round pick. I could see him going similar to where he went this year, you know, just settling in in the third round, maybe moving up

to the early third round. But I don't think that Jamal Williams is gonna go away in games that they fall behind that have also been competitive, we've seen Jamal Williams on the field more playing that pass catcher's role. Although Aaron Jones is a good pass catcher. It seems like there hasn't really been a rhyme or reason too. You know, when Aaron Jones he's a big workload versus when Jamal Williams does so. It's been frustrating from that regard.

The snaps have been very interested. Uh, you know, even as well. So I think that the efficiency is there for Aaron Jones again this year. He has upside to have big games, a solid offensive line ahead of him. I think all of those things will likely keep him as a you know, low n RB one, high n RB two heading into next season. Right there you go that story on Aaron Jones. I mentioned Drew Lock. Let's get into what Drew Lock yesterday. He did. He was

a huge winner yesterday for the Devon Brackos. Never Rackos spanked Houston Texas yesterday over the knee, just NonStop. Right. We were talking yesterday via text Bill O'Brien, Man, what is up with this guy? I mean, the guy's favored by nine and a half points at home, coming off a huge win against the New England Patriots, and you have this performance against the Denver Broncos. Man, what is going on here? You know, de Shaun Watson still made the most out of his day because he threw for

a touchdown and he had two rushing touchdowns, but two interceptions. Here. They couldn't really do anything on the ground. The defense was putrid from the Houston Texans yesterday. I mean, how is this the same team that beat the New England

Patriots the week before. I just it is so confounding when it comes to Bill O'Brien and this team and now they basically control their own destiny because they faced the Tennessee Titans twice in the next three games, and those games are going to decide who wins the a f C South. It wouldn't surprobably one bit that if the Texans falter in those games, Bill O'Brien is out for the Houston Texans. We'll see what happens. He's not gonna fire himself. Well, I gotta do something, don't they.

It's just so ridiculous. May look, it's you're probably right, Mike Rabel Man, this Ryan Tanne and we will get into that just one second. But yeah, it's it's just insane what they're doing, rightw I never thought that, you know, based on the offensive game that we saw out of the Titans on that Thursday night football game against the Jaguars earlier in the season, it seems like that was five years ago. What is going on with the Tennessee Titans. We will get into that, but back to Drew Lock,

Like this guy is their offensive Cordinet and they're succeeding. Uh. That that is a picture of Arthur Smith. We were crushing him about two months ago. Uh. A lot can change in two months, as we've seen with the Tennessee Titans. Back to Drew Lock. He only had five incompletions yesterday, eleven point four yards. Pert tempt big play after big play to Noah Fan had some big ones. Tim Patrick had a big catch in this game. Jeff, can you

take me? Hi? You're man scores a touchdown and Greig in a game where they scored thirty eight points, Cortland Sutton has thirty four receiving nuts. Right, just this is just fantasy football at its finest. Cortland Sutton is still a wide receiver to he still sees a lot of volume. He can make plays against the best corners. We saw that last week against Casey Haward. This was a letdown. I'm still gonna go back to Courtland Sutton. But I think Drew Lock is at least working his way into

super flex territory right now. Greg, Yeah, he's all the radar man. I rather Drew Lock than Kyle Allen, tell you how much. Yeah, it's hard to argue with that. And next week they go up against Kansas City and I've already seen that there's a there's a big total in that game. It is tough to go into Kansas City. It's a it's a tougher place to play. It's gonna

be cold in Kansas City as well. But the way that Drew Lock is playing right now, if you're playing a two quarterback league, super flex, I think that you get him in there against Kansas City. I agree. No issue with me in a super flex league starting Drew Lock. And when you need a streaming quarterback, there are other options out there. What's up with that tomorrow on the show? Um, But Drew Lock and super Flex, I'm totally totally cool.

Big winner, Big Winter. On the other side for Houston, out of not out of nowhere, but will fuller out again with a freaking hamstring strand you're practicing full on Friday, and it's just more of the same for the Houston Texas. This team is just hard to figure out. There are a few teams like this, Greg, it's just doctor Jacqueline mr Hyde every single week. The Atlanta Falcons were one of those teams. They come out of there by they beat the New Orleans Saints. Got to say Dr jacko, Mr.

Hid because Yafens is good fantasy bouses. The Texans, Yes, janj Hopkins was awesome. He was, I mean he still They ended up putting up a good game. DeAndre Hopkins had a big game seven for one, twenty and a touchdown, thirteen targets. But I think some people were looking at Kenny Stills to fill in for will Fuller here Greg he did not show up. He has not shown up in any of the games that will Fuller has missed.

So that narrative that oh we can use Will Fuller in games where Kenny Stills is out, that is gone, that is no longer existing. Jordan Aikins seems like he has taken over as the pass catching tight end over Darren Fells. Nine targets yesterday for Jordan Aikins. The Texans themselves are huge losers, but from a fantasy perspective, they

did actually do what you wanted. Even Carlos Hyde, in a game where they were getting destroyed fourteen carries for seventy three yards, continues to be his flex self every single week in RB three. You know, I thought this was gonna be a Duke Johnson spot and from a PBR perspective, six for forty five. I thought that he was gonna have a bigger game here, Greg because it's easier to throw to the running back against the Broncos and they were trailing the whole time. I was expecting

a bigger game out of Duke Johnson. I like the eight targets, so I'll put him in the category. But still a bit of a letdown for me. Fair enough, fair enough, um. I mentioned what Drew Lock did yesterday, and there's some other quarterbacks that obviously went off, but none bigger than the Titans and Ryan Tannehill. Where Ryan down Hill is putting up Lamar Jackson type passing numbers at this point, it's like him and Lamar Jackson has been the Zo Bigs offensive weapons the second half since

he has become the starter. Lamar Jackson's QB one, Ryan Tannehill's QB two. That's how good Ryan Tannehill has been quarterback too, since taking over from Marcus Mariana what seven or so weeks ago, He's been that great. And you know, the schedule is what it is. Tannehill is playing the schedule that he has He's been amazing. He has breathed life into the Titans team. Now probably a huge step back is looking at the Tannehill and will stuck next year.

But nevertheless, eas don't buy him in a dynasty league now. A J. Brown has been fantastic. Derrick Henry as long as he's healthy, has been fantastic. Ryan Tannehill has been stortable every week. You take the name off the back of the jersey, you don't care if this is Ryan Tannehill. He's never thrown the ball deep like he is now. He's been unbelievable and yesterday was more of the same. And I think this is you know, I gotta bring it back to my Jets and Adam Gates. Of course,

what kind of indictment is this? Right? He never got this kind of play out of Ryan Tannehill when they were in Miami. They didn't let him throw the ball deep. We saw him throw a ball from his own end zone that ended up being a nine one yard touchdown to A J. Brown yesterday. This guy can make the throws if you put him in the right position and

in the right matchups. He's had really good matchups and I had him as a top ten quarterback coming into this week, Greg, I think I had him as my QB eight or I was all over Ryan Tannehill here. The Oakland Raiders defense is terrible. You want to play whoever is going up against them next week? It's Gardner Minshew in the stash against this Oakland Raiders defense. Ryan Tannehill again. Two of his next three games are against the Houston Texans. Those are huge must win games for

both of the teams. But we just sat Drew lock through for three touchdowns against this Texans defense. You can throw on them, and I think Ryan Tannehill will be able to do just that. Pay attention to Derrick henry He was getting a lot of treatment on this and that hamstring throughout the course of the game. Still still managed to run for a hundred yards and two touchdowns. Like it's nothing, Greg, Just like, oh yeah, you know, I gotta gimpy hamstring whatever, I'll still run for a

hundred yards and two touchdowns. Sorry, it's not the hundred and sixty yards it has been each of the past three weeks. Derrick Henry Man just a complete beast. A J. Brown. This guy's in YAHOO League's insane. Why is the only twenty. Absolutely, I understand that there are people out there you might have stacked wide receivers at this point in the play, it doesn't matter. Pick up a J. Brown. He has been up and down, but when he's up, he is up and against the Texans, he should be able to

do well in that matchup. Seven targets yesterday, lad this team five catches, a hundred fifty three yards, two touchdowns. He is everything the Titans and Dynasty players wanted Corey Davis to be and then so absolutely a J. Brown man, He's a man. He's gonna a high pick next year in fantasy drafts. Will come back on the other side, the other shocker of the day, Josh Jacobs man. We'll get into that on the other side. Hold on more to come if you have vest, roll on after this.

Happy one month versary you as well on your wedding. Great any buddy, I'm still married. Fel feels nothing has changed. It still hard to get out of bed. Sorry, what's wrong with me? That's when you get to forty? How does field? Greg?

I don't lie to the people. I don't know. Josh Jacobs woke up feel like it was forty yesterday because out of nowhere, yesterday morning was like, h he may not play? What do you mean he he may not play? And then he didn't play. Josh Jacobs and voting a shoulder injury for a while yesterday. It cost him the game and may cost him his season. Yeah, I don't know that we're gonna see Josh Jacobs again. He's playing

through a fractured shoulder. The Oakland Raiders have lost three games in a row, really falling out of contention right now. They are six and seven. Statistically they still have a chance, but I don't know. That they're going to risk the health of their rookie running back, someone that they need for years to come, in order to try and climb back into this one. And look, DeAndre Washington did his best Josh Jacobs impression here, fourteen carries for fifty three yards.

Didn't run all that efficiently, just three point eight yards carry. But if you did have that as a pivot option on your team, you know, in case you were worried about Josh Jacobs, we had those reports reports earlier in the day. If you picked up DeAndre Washington and pivoted to him, you are laughing onto the next round of your fantasy playoffs scores. The touchdown leads a team with

seven targets, six receptions, forty three yards. That's the craziest part to me, Greg, Why was DeAndre Washington used as the pass catcher yesterday? Meanwhile, Josh Jacobs hasn't been used that way all season long. The seven targets, six receptions, and forty three receiving yards for DeAndre Washington were higher than any receiving totals for Josh Jacobs in the game all season long, So that was very odd for me. I understand they were playing from behind. But uh, nonetheless,

DeAndre Washington a winner from yesterday. And if you didn't pick him up, and you are a Josh Jacob's owner and you somehow managed to advance, he will be the top priority on the waiver wire for you. Because they go up against the Jaguars, Greg and I need to remind you this is not an exaggeration. The Jaguars allowed three hundred total yards to Charges running backs yesterday and three touchdowns three hundred total yards. They even allowed a

rushing touchdown to Derek Watt, their fullback. It's gonna be a great matchup for DeAndre Washington. DeAndre Washington in a huge, huge spot this weekend, and he is out there right. He's the number one guy you have to go out and get as a running back this weekend against Jacksonville. So Austin Ekeler and Melvin Gordon did yesterday gainst JACKSONVI. Let's bring it down a little bit further. The Chargers dismantled Jacksonville Jaguars yesterday. Frankie said, Ekeler and Gordon people

are riding them right in the semifinals. Yeah, and Ekeler was on the field actually more than Melvin Gordon yesterday. I think they were kindly smart enough given give Melvin Gordon a little bit, a little bit of the day off here as they got up big and they were playing with the lead. Philip Rivers didn't even play in the fourth quarter of this game, so Austin Ekeler winds

up with forty nine percent of the snaps. Just a crazy game for eckler Man eight carries for a hundred and one yards, four receptions for a hundred and twelve receiving yards, and a touchdown. Just crazy efficiency continuing here for Austin Ekeler. And we told you last week that he was an RB too in this matchup, and he provided much more than that Melvin Gordon gets in the end zone. I think both of these guys are clear winners. Philip Rivers and the passing attack a winner from yesterday.

He's not done yet. Three hundred yards, fourteen point three yards per attempt yesterday. This Jaguars team has just completely rolled over. You can play whoever you want against this Jaguars defense right now. Three touchdown passes for Philip Rivers. Austin Ekeler gets one of those. Mike Williams gets in the end zone here, Uh, first time on the season. Finally gets a touch reggression happened, maybe better late than never. I know a few people liked him in DFS. Hunter

Henry scores a touchdown as well. It was fantasy goodness all around for the Los Angeles Charges, not for the Jacksonville Jaguars, where DJ Shark has a high ankle spring that make calls from the season. Frank, he's probably done here. Unfortunately he's a loser. It's not his fault, it's not performance for late still had ten targets, nine catches for seventy five yards. So g J Hart doing his part

from a PPR perspective. But heading into next week, this matchup with Oakland right D D. Westfork is gonna be a prime time play against his Oakland Raiders secondary and and dare I say I will throw out the names Chris Connley and Keelan Cole if they gotta fill fill in for the those outside wide receiver spots for Gardner Minshew to have a target down the field to throw the ball to. I think that those guys are going

to be in play. The Oakland Raiders have allowed the most twenty plus yard receptions and forty plus yard receptions, so you can make big plays against them. And I think that both both of Chris Conley and Keelan Cole are going to make four interesting pickups in deeper leagues. We'll see. I mean you again, deeper leagues. You want to throw them at. Match is actually really really good. Some people play, you know, two flexes like you do in your ideas. Gardner is one of those quarterbacks you're

looking at for this. Yeah, look, he hasn't been great since he has returned to the starting role here. Um, But yeah, look it's hard to pass off on that matchup. And Leonard Fournett is not running efficiently right now, pretty much like you know, he hasn't his whole entire career. But yeah, I think that they can take advantage and there's gonna be some points in that game between the Raiders and Jacksonville. I think Minshew is finitely In the

streaming conversation, we hit on a lot of injuries. Let's go to Tampa Bay where Mike Evans hurt. He's growing, He's out for potentially the season. Was this growing Well, it's significant enough that he's gonna be out for probably the year, I said, Bruce arians will be a shock if he plays again this season comes on a touchdown cash for him, which is frustrating. It was everything you want out of a Javis WHI was the game yesterday, right, I tweeted out the box score and said, this is

a microcosm of his career. So this is why I told everyone to pick up the Colts events last week, because yeah, they're got a lot of crapload of points, but they're gonna get picks, they're gonna get sacks, they're gonna get fumbos, and they're gonna get touchdowns. And they did all of that. Frankie, that's exactly what they did. You look at the box score in one look. I think the funniest part was that you even got four past attempts out of Ryan Griffin. Somehow James got hurt. Yeah,

he got hurt. And that is actually a big storyline to pay attention to because as of now, the last report that I saw was that he's going for a second opinion on his hand injury, and normally whenever you see that, it's not good things. So obviously that he has huge implications for Chris Oddwin the rest of this offense. O J. Howard back from the dead. Five targets, four receptions for seventy five yards. I know his snatch and routes run have been up over the past couple of weeks,

So again we're bringing up O. J. Howard. Look, if no Mike Evans is around, they need someone to throw the ball to. This team is not running bad. Perriman is gonna be in the mix. I know. I saw a lot of people on the Dynasty Fantasy Twitter yesterday talking up Justin Watson. If you look at his player profiler page, he does rank highly in a lot of those agility and speed metrics that we like to see coming out of college. He's a bigger receiver as well

in Justin Watson. So you know he had eight targets to just five four Brashod Perriman. Perriman had more snass, Watson had more targets. You know, if if Winston is looking Watson's way, I'm definitely gonna have some interest. Because the team cannot run the football. They like to throw and throw and throw some more. So, um, if you need a waiver wire wide receiver you lost Mike Evans, I think that you can look within this team to find the replacement there. Greg, Yeah, that's that makes sense.

You want to stay on that team. Another wide receiver injury, So DeVante Parker get concussed. DeVante Parker. I'll go back to the colt in a second. But like DeVante Parker, he gets concusted. Desperate for wide receivers. You think Alan Hearns can be somebody that's out there, Um, Albert Wilson, we go back down to that rabbit hole. Isaiah Ford, Graig, what can you tell me about Isaiah Ford? Nothing? Isaiah Ford lead this team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards yesterday,

and the Dolphins can't run the football. While you know our layerd and Savior as they like to call him on Twitter nowadays. Uh, he had a solid game in terms of his workload. Fifteen carries, forty eight yards three point two yards for carry. Not great, but he didn't have five targets. So they can't run the football. They're using layered as an extension of the run game with short passes like we thought they would use him. But

ultimately they're gonna end up throwing the ball. The volume is gonna be there for Fitzpatrick and I think Isaiah Ford and Alan Hearns if DeVante Parker is ruled out for sure in a really good matchup against the Giants, are going to make a lot of sense in Week fifteen, Greg. But you know, getting back to the Indianapolis Colts, as you mentioned, Marlon Mack first came back, did not run efficially, but he scored a touchdown, So I think you feel

pretty good about that performance. You feel really good about Jack Pascal as well, who is the clear number one wide receiver of the Colts. A touchdown followed by a two point conversion. He was great. Jack Doyle, Greg, what happened to Big Jackie d Man? He snaps? Are there the targets are that you tell me before this game that the Cults are gonna put up thirty five points and Jack Doyle only has twenty seven receiving yards. I would have probably told you he gets hurt on the

first drive of the game. But yeah, definitely a loser from yesterday Jack Doyle. I'm not going to completely get away from him. I know the not at from tap was tough against tight ends, Man, they are a lot a lot of fantasy points of tight ends this year. I don't think so. Now they're like top three, they're like like the third, like the second or third most Fantasy points at sight ends. So I love this matchup. I had Jack Doyle ranked inside my top seven going

against the Saints next week. They are actually tougher against the tight end, but there should be some points. They're going into the home there and like we just saw, you know, George Kittle had a solid game against the Saints. You gotta go back to Jack Doyle, Pascal big winner from yesterday. Marcus Johnson. Can I interest you and Marcus Johnson in deeper leagues? He is the one that's seeing the deep routes, the high average depth of target here

for the Indianapolis Colts. Um, yeah, I think that ever they um you know when Marcus Johnson and Zach Pascal and Marlon Mack and even Jacoby Ever said, I think everybody on this offense was a winner yesterday outside of Jack Toyle. You mentioned Miami a moment ago anything on the Jets ball boom boom power. Getting the start for Levy on Bell kind of weird, right, Like most players played through an illness and this is like mono. Yeah, no,

this is like Jets itis. He just doesn't want to play for the Jets any everything and everything you read everything he read, it was like it was like the same illness going around the league. But Levian can play through the sideline still, So yeah, again, I think this is just he's got a bad case of the jets here, Greg, you didn't want to get out there and play against the Miami Dolphins At this point, Levan Bell is like, all right, what I'm making my money, I'll sit out

a game here. You know he should be back next next week. I would assume I will pay attention to that when it comes to Levy on Bell, but you know, save it for next year. I guess whatever it might be. Robbie Anderson huge winner. I was on his prop yesterday, I was on Zach Pascal, I was on Tyler Higby. Hit on all three of those. A little bit of a backpack for myself. Robbie Anderson eleven targets here, and

this is what he does every single year, Greg. As we get into the Fantasy football playoffs final months of the season, Robbie Anderson always shows up. Jamison Crowder huge loser. You were right, Greig, we cannot go back to Jamison Crowder, the usage has not been there. He had seven targets, but for whatever reason, he is not on the same page as Sam Donald right now. Robbie Anderson is that guy. Tougher game though, Thursday Night Football against the Baltimore Ravens.

I think Robbie Anderson will be more of a lower end wide receiver three. I really don't want to target outside wide receivers against this Ravens defense right now. But the targets have been there for Robbie, so he's a boom er bus play. Maybe he can catch a touchdown against the Ravens, but that's a really, really tough spot. He's a winner. But this whole situation is because I

don't like the matchup going into Week fifteen. Great, fair enough, you don't like the matchup either, to why I can't start Robby Anderson in their spot against the Baltimore Revages, not even as a low end wide receiver three, just not so uncomfortable. Targets have been there for him. I understand. I get it, it's a tough spot, but they're likely playing from behind. You can't talk about injuries with that mention, would have it a shot. Penny last night for the

Seattle Seahawks. He goes down in the first quarter with a knee injury, a significant knee injury. He's going to be out for this season. It looks like, according to Pete Carroll, he leaves Chris Carson because of all this natural the CJ process was back until he gets hurt again. No doubt, um the Seahawks get demolished by the Rams last night, that it caused us to lose us Frank mentioned at the top of the show. But the big story that game from a fantasy perspective, it wasn't Robert

Woods finally getting the end zone. Wasn't ty Girley being awesome. Hell, it wasn't even Tyler hab dominating as a tight end one yet again, it's Cooper Cup And even though he's got a touchdown, he barely played. He barely played. The snaps have been down the past couple of weeks. I don't know that he is in the doghouse because of something he's done. I saw on Twitter people were speculating that, you know, he's he dropped the pass that led to an interception, and I think he had like a fumble

a week or two ago. So I don't think that he is in the doghouse. I guess it's a possibility maybe he's playing through an injury. But what they are doing Greg is they're getting back to Todd Gurley, and I think because of that, they're playing more twelve personnel sets where they have two tight ends on the field, and that has led to less playing time for their three wide receiver sets. I don't know why they wouldn't use Cooper Cup on the outside. Brandon Cooks has given

us a donut two games in a row. But but for whatever reason, this is a situation a monitor. We'll see if we could get some answers throughout the course of the week. I have a feeling that a few of the Beat reporters will be asking Sean McVeigh about this when it comes to Cooper Cup. But Todd Gurley

is back to getting these huge workloads. Greg touchdown early yesterday, scoring a touchdown early, Todd Gurley still wound up getting in the end zone, didn't run efficiently, but twenty seven touches and he has seen his workload go up the past couple of weeks for the Los Angeles Rams, and maybe this is what they were saving him for Greg. You know, maybe they were giving him that early on in the season. Little it might be, but for whatever

reason now they're like, look, we can't fool around. We gotta get the ball in the hands of our best player right now. That's Todd Gurley and if Gerald Everett Everett misses any more time, Tyler Higby is a legit tight end one, legitimately a tight end one. Both Scarborough got hurt late in the Minnesota blowout, Oh Detroit, Dalvin Cook looked like himself and other gig away maker Mayfield stinks Baker Mayfield's thinks Tyler lockett Man huge loser again,

just letting fantasy owners down weekend and week out. He's Franklin Greg go over waivers this week tomorrow. We want to be the next Daily Fantasy millionaire.

Atlanta Falcons destroyed the Carolina Panthers yesterday. Man Matt Ryan led the way, Demanti Freeman found the end zone for the first time of the season for Carolina. Ian Thomas got in the end zone. So this, uh, this destruction at the hands of Atlanta crippling Perry Fuels Carolina Panthers. Yes,

very predictable here. Uh. You know, we didn't necessarily know which Panthers team was gonna show up No, Ron Rivera, and the answer on equivocally was a team that is basically mailing it in now that they fired their head coach, Ron Rivera. They get blown out in Atlanta Divisional game forty twenty. Here you mentioned DeVonta Freeman a lot of first yesterday, Greg, Devanta Freeman first raw touchdown, Mike Williams and Robert Woods against your BFFs, of course, first receiving

touchdowns of the season. Better late than never, But I would consider Devantay Freeman a winner. Greg. You know, since he has returned, he is dominating the snaps. He played sixty seven of the snaps yesterday. Yes, it is a tougher match up against San Francisco heading into next week. But I think if you do want to attack the San Francisco forty niners one way, it's better to do so on the ground than through the air. I mean,

their secondary has been great all year. Of course, they have an injury to Richard Sherman, so we'll have to monitor that. But Devonsay Freeman seventeen carries, eighty four yards and a touchdown. We knew this was a good spot against Carolina. You want to start all of your running backs against the Carolina Panthers, Yes, they are that bad.

I had Freeman as a high n RB two. I think that he was, you know, on a team that doesn't have a lot of winners, Greg the Atlanta Falcons probably the biggest winner yesterday on a team that doesn't have a lot of winners. DeVonta Freeman was probably the biggest winner for the Atlanta Falcons. Absolutely yesterday. He performed better than I thought yards and two touchdowns. Still not

as good as Ryan Tess. You mentioned Richard shore Me, you mentioned the San Francisco four nineers, It was arguably the game of the day. The fourty Niners defeated in the New Orleans Saints on a last minute Robbie goldfield goal. Crazy game. It was a crazy, crazy game where Jimmy g led the way for San Francisco Drew Brees, that two of them went head to head, toe to toe, and it was an awesome, awesome contest down there in

the Superdome. You know how we like to hold ourselves accountable here on the BFF, Greg, we give out apologies often. I think now is the time to apologize to the of the quarterbacks in this game, because we both said we weren't really in on Drew Brees heading into last week. Nobody could have seen this coming. Yes, you could have said, you know, games in the Superdome tend to trend towards

the over. That's fine, but nobody saw forty eight to forty six, Kyle Shanahan playing out all the stops, having Emmanuel Sanders throw touchdowns, a really, really fun game all around. But I think that this was a big game for Jimmy Garoppolo in terms of his development and his confidence. Greg, because we have seen some big games at a Jimmy G over the past month or so. But against the Arizona Cardinals. You know the Saints, their defense is solid.

I would say it's probably above average. It's not an elite defense by any means. They do get a lot of pressure, so that's why I worried about Jimmy G in this spot. But man, that offensive line held up. He was really good. I mean, Arrappo really got it done yesterday. So if you managed to use one of him or Drew Brees a super flex league or somehow in a one quarterback league, huge winners from yesterday
