Just just

We're working really hard last night writing all those things, right, like writing, we're writing all these bios. You're not kidding, and there's a lot of like energy that goes into that, obviously, right. So I get home. I watched Washman, which is awesome. Eui, you watched I think that you could watch a Watchman. I

watched the first episode. It's I don't really know what it is or what it's about yet, but I'm I'm into it. You should, you would like as you man. It's awesome. So I watched I have about ten shows on the on the queue waiting waiting to go. I watched the I watched the Terps. Was a great win. It was awesome. Let's go. And then after writing all those bios that we had to write, like thirty of them. How did the terriers do last night? Judy's like, you

gotta write some thank you notes? Like, oh god? So I sat and wrote some thing, you know, man, and then I was just like and I'm watering headache after it, and She's just like, are you dying after these? Ted? I'm like, I am so tired. I was also working with the guys up here to like eleven thirty last night. I am exhausted, went's mad, well up felt refreshing. Here we are, baby, let's go here we are, let's go Cowboys versus Bears tonight. It all starts week fourteen, getting

kicked off Thursday Night football. E y, how are you doing, buddy? How did you sleep last night? I feel like I never asked you how you sleep? And he's gone, and he's gone a great, great shot at ey, we know what showed to take it from? Oh man, I was about to grab my phone and just take a selfie with him, like right here with the remots over there, so I can't even turn it off. And this is great, This is great. I mean, look, if we didn't bring

it up, nobody would know that he's frozen. It's awesome. Um, what dr Manhattan over here and there it is now now he's really gone. Now we've got nothing. This is live skype action here and look we have professional producers downstairs. Split screen shot. Awesome, good shot, guys. I'm proud of everybody. I'm proud of everybody. But Ey is actually gone forever. Yeah, he's gone forever. Um, you know, I'm an Illinois at two things. One, I forgot to text you what went

down in his lead that people came to blows. I've met to text them about that. I gotta do it today. We will do it today, Okay. The second thing is people see like people are, especially the split shot that we have right now. You guys, it's like really nice, like dress shirt on the frank really dresses. I got my sweater and T shirt on, which is what I was supposed to wear for what we're doing later. He's

in his pajamas. But anyway, people are gonna say, but this is what we're supposed to wear, right, You're not wrong, so wearing it? And then I so I asked Alex, now I gotta sweater a black fry. What do you think it is? I like it? Yeah, I mean a lot of people that stairs. Don't seem to like your wardrobe lately into it. But yeah, you know, I just not digging the winter wardrobe. I bought a few shirts

last week. I don't know what to wear anymore because you know, one production is telling me to wear this, the other production telling me to wear that. So you know what, Greg, I'm just gonna wear a button down shirt. We go over to M sgu later, I'll throw on a little jacket. We'll be all good, buddy, alright, we'll be all good. All right, So let's I know what the end of the games are you in the Thursday night football and no Virginia Zaka she tore her a c L. How a the irony in that she tore

her a c L from inside injuries? Uh, it seems that she has quite the injury herself playing soccer. Yeah, I didn't know that she was. Yeah, so that is very unfortunate. We will not have her this week. Hopefully she'll be she'll be good to go in in the coming weeks after she has surgery. But yeah, we we asked her what her optimal recovery time was. I don't think she liked those shown game. We then gave her optimal recovery time. She didn't like that one either. There's

no response. In fact, she just might never join us again, Greig, at this point, it would be the first girl you shoot away. What does that mean? You know what it means? I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know what you're talking about. What it means? All right, that's kind of some breaking news. Before he hit the break, James Conner. Oh, this Sunday for the Bittsburgh Steelers. He will not return at Arizona. Are you comfortably e y

going back to bank Snell? Yeah? I think so. I mean, I mean, I think if you have Benny Snell, or you know, you were carrying Benny Snell and replace of Connor, Like, what choice do you have? It's not like, uh, you would have a bunch of other running backs that you could get. I mean Snell looked okay. Uh So, I mean comfortable. I don't think would be the word to describe it. I think I would I'd feel forced to play him. I don't know if force is the right

word either. You're right, y, Like, I wouldn't feel comfortable with it. I think I would just feel fine, Like that's the word. That I would say about Benny Snell as a as a low end RB two, a high end RB three flex option. You know he's not gonna do anything in the past game. He got up to a real slow start last week, Greg and I was worried we're using channel and Samuel's early on in that game, and Kreth White was getting his uh his five carries

in the first half of that game as well. But ultimately, when when it came push the show, Benny Snell ended up being the guy. He scored a touchdown. He tried his best to do a goal gold dunk. It was more like a layup and he snelled more of a well you're not allowed to duncan anymore. Yeah, he's he's a he's a heavier fellow anymore. So I don't think that he has the the ups to to get up there to the goal post. But he did try his best.

He scored a touchdown. The workload has been there for him against Arizona, I think it should be a competitive game. Actually really liked the Steelers in that game. Um So, I think he's a solid flex option, a high end flex option. Would you're the start? James M Many Snell or the Niners guys Matt Breeder, he most are Devin Coleman. So that's basically where I'm up to in my ranking. So I ranked my top twenty four and then it's just black, it's everything else, it's Benny Snell, it's the

forty Niners running back. So I'm currently working on that, but as of now, based on the news that we got from James Conner being out, I would prefer Benny Snell over the forty Niners. Are I probably agree too much a question when comes to Niners, you know we're gon get his fifteen, especially against Arizona. All Right, we'll take a break. We got Thursday football to preview. That will be fun between the Bears and the Cowboys. So let's get into that over some my headlines as well

and start our Sunday previews. Not the new to be up as NFL season is now upon us and you can become the eighth person away one million dollars in a Fandueler DraftKings tournament.

I gotta look like I don't know. I just I just woke up wearing. Yeah, I don't know.

It's a violent gentleman T shirt. Hockey you guys wouldn't understand. So I saw it during the break and I actually said to Greg, what the hell is e Y wearing? It looks like an eight bit hockey fight. Yeah it is. That's exactly what it is. It's an eight bit hockey fight like Nintendo old Nintendo video game cover shirt. It's super cool. But I never really looked at it that closely. If I'm because I never read the shirt. I feel like I'm obligated to say this for producer Alex downt

Let's go isles, baby. Yeah you know, I don't know what that means. A big island. You gotta love the blue and orange good year to be an Islanders fan. There you go, I got I got it right, Greg. There's been a lot of talk this week that Jerry Jones and the kind of owner that he is. He's a good owner, he's a bad owners and badn't too much to say a team together, and I'm like it does it seems silly? Like why are we doing this?

It seems too far. It's because Jerry Jones speaks after every game like you know what Jerry is right, Like you know that Jerry Jones is who he is for better or worse. Tonight, Jerry Jones leads his team into actually in Chicago against the Bears. Bears are a three and a half I believe maybe down to three now point dog tonight at home against Chicago freaky. What do you expect for the Dallas Cowboys and the Chicago Bears tonight? Well, it's do or die basically for both teams here in

this game. You know, Chicago Bears are technically still alive, but they play in one of the tougher divisions this year in terms of record, with the Green Bay Packers in Minnesota vikings ahead of them. As of now. I know that they are still obviously gonna try to to make a run for it. Here saw comments from clil Mac after their Thanksgiving win against the Lions. But man, I do like the Dallas Cowboys here in the spot.

Don't know that I would lay the three. I think, just to be safe, I would probably just go with the Dallas Cowboys moneyline overall here, Greg, and from a fantasy perspective, I think it is a tough spot for Dak Prescott and a Mari Cooper. So I put out the poll before the show, Greg regarding a Marii Cooper and how people feel about you know, ranking him tonight, and I said, is he a must start wide receiver? Is he a low end wide receiver, too high and

wide receiver three? Or is the matchup just too tough where you just ben Shamari Cooper and right now say that he is still a must start regardless of matchup. I actually think he's more of a low and wide receiver two in this matchup. You know, Look, the outside corners for the Bears have been very good. I know that Prince of Mukamara is banged up, but Fuller is still there and he is one of the better ones in the league. So for me. I think a Maori Cooper is more of a low end wide receiver too.

And I think that Jason Witten is in a good spot here, Greg I mentioned him as a waiver wire pickup. You can attack the Bears with tight ends. I think that Randall Cobb is a sneaky play if you play in DFS. Probably not gonna use him in my season long playoffs, but I like his prop as well. I think the Cowboys get it done tonight, Greig, I like the Cowboys tonight as well. I like them at their number. Um,

that's just three point favorites, I think. But it is interesting right that you like the Cowboys but you don't like their top weapon, Mark Cooper, which means you probably don't like their other weapon on the outside, as like quarterbacks are good in Mike in Michael Gallup, are you in love the equality tonight is? I think it's equity. It's going to have a big game. I still have him ranked as a top three running back this week.

He's coming off a game where he just had ten targets seven receptions, so they're starting to use him more in the passing game. I do worry a little bit about Dak from from a fantasy perspective, I think that he'll be able to do enough from a real life NFL perspective to help the Cowboys get a victory tonight. But there's no denying that he has been much better at home this year than he has been on the road.

He's averaging seven and a half fewer fantasy points on the road this season and seventy fewer passing yards per game on the road this season. Obviously, going into Soldier Field and playing against the Chicago Bears is not going to be an easy task. I think he is more of a low end QB one, high end QB two. I can give you a few quarterbacks that I have ranked ahead of him. I got a question about Dak Prescott actually the shirt. So the question was Dak Prescott

or Jamis Winston. I would use Jameis Winston, That's what I said. Yeah, so I have Jameis Winston eight. I have Tannehill ninth. Of course my boy, E wise boy, as well as Sam Darnald QB tan. I'm going back to that well, and then I have Dak Prescott QB eleven, and you know I'm gonna put on my rankings later on Rhodo experts, I might drop him even lower than this. I'm thinking about doing that. Okay, e y, where are you on Dak Prescott? Tonight? Frank made a good poll

question today regards to with Marik Cooper. What do you think he's back? He's back and he's gone? What is going on? All right? Well? Anyway, so to me go back to your Mark Cooper question for a moment, I think Mark Cooper is probably the low end too high, and think maybe a high end to um, but not the rocks alid high end wide receiver. One tonight, we've seen him in mad matches, We've seen underperformed. Where did you have Gallop? Right? He's he's a solid wide receiver

three solid to low end. Wait, he's the top thirty six wide receiver. I just I don't feel great about I think Mukamara being out. Someone's going to benefit from that. Between Mari Cooper and Michael Gallup, I don't know you know which one exactly. I think that obviously they'd probably send more defensive attention a Mari Cooper's way. But ultimately I do think this is a big Zeke game. I think Witten gets it done. And I think Randall Cobb will be solid as well. So I'm I'm just not

feel really feeling great about a Marie Cooper gallup. I have him as a you know, high end tight end two, which is like where the streaming tight ends normally are. I brought this up earlier in the week. The Bears allow the seventh most fantasy points to opposing tight ends. They allow the fourth most receptions. One of my favorite prop bets tonight, greg is Jason Witten over three and a half receptions and over twenty I believe it's twenty four and a half receiving yards. It's just a low

number for Jason Witten, who has routinely gone over that. Yeah, his number is twenty five and a half. So over three and a half receptions over twenty five and a half receiving yards for Jason Witten tonight, I think he's in play as a streaming tendan. All right, we'll leave get to you Bears in a second, but leta get to you eui. When it comes to Dallas, Frank brought up how he doesn't love a mari how he doesn't love a mare Cooper. Tonight, Michael Gal kind of is

what he is. Where are you on all of these Cowboys scoop position players tonight? Yeah, I think I got uh going along with what Frank says. I think that Ezekiel It is going to show up and show up and in a big way because the Dallas Cowboys need him. Uh, they were rotten last week. Um, Chicago has been approved. Most importantly, Mitchell to Risky has been improved. So I feel like Dallas is going to have to move the ball. And they're the Chicago Bears. Outside corners are really good.

So that's going to a kind of slow Marie Cooper slow down gallop. It could be a sneaky good game for Randall. Cop Uh is someone that I would be interested in. Um maybe maybe tonight, but I mean for sure I would be going with Ezekiel Elliott starting him without worry. Greg Graham Barfield of NFL Fantasy tweeted out this chart of based on receiver alignment, where defenses have been allowing the most Fantasy points over the last eight weeks. Make sure you give m a follow on Twitter. He

puts out great stuff. So over the past eight weeks, Chicago is allowing the ninth their ninth against outside wide receivers, so pretty good. Obviously in the top half of the league. They are seventeen against slot receivers, so that has been the way to attack the Chicago Bears over the past eight weeks. We did see, you know, Kenny Gollady had the long touchdown last week, Marvin Jonan scored a touchdown.

I'm not telling people to Benjamari Cooper obviously, I'm just saying he's not the slam dun play that he has been all season long. So just keep your expectations realistic when it comes to Amari Cooper. I think most people that have him, you're gonna have to play him, obviously, but I do think that there are some other peripheral pieces that can have a good game for the Dallas Cowboys. Me over to the other side, that is the Chicago Barre's a lot of people, yourself included. I've talked to

Anthony Miller here this week. Where's Anthony Miller in your rankings? So I'm basically in the same predicament where I am with with my running back rank He's where I've ranked the top twenty four. Anthony Miller is not gonna be a top twenty four wide receiver. But he's gonna make it in as a as a top thirty six wide receiver. Three. I am very bullish on Anthony Miller. I've been saying that all week long. I mean, his usage has been great, at least nine targets in three straight games. Here the

monster game against the Lions on Thanksgiving last week. And I'll go back to this chart, Greggy. The Dallas Cowboys over the past eight weeks allowing the fifth most Fantasy points to opposing slot receivers, and they are at the same time they are sixth best against outside wide receivers. So again, like similar situation to Amari Cooper. I like

Anthony Miller a lot tonight, Craig. I am not gonna get away from using Allen Robinson, but you have to be you know, realist, stick with what you expect in this game. But ultimately I do like Anthony Miller. His usage has been there. No Taylor Gabriel, Uh, It's basically just him and Allen Robinson, who we're seeing the targets. Not worried about Javon Wims and you know, whatever third

string tight end they're throwing out there. I think the targets are condensed to Allen Robinson, Anthony Miller, and Tarik Cohen uh and then David Montgomery is more of a low end RB two because of his usage in the red zone. All right, so there you have it. That's a Frankie season, Bears and the Cowboys breaking down. We're gonna stop there, We're gonna continue want we had a lot on Sunday and chat about so stick around, pull a lot more coming your ways. Your BFFs, Frank, Greg

and e Y on sports screen. NFL season is now upon us and you can become the eighth person away one million dollars in a fan Noel Draft Kings tournament. My sitting there lineups using the Daily Roder dot Com DFS a lot of optimizer. If you were playing Dailly Fantasy's four Words and not using Daily Order dot Com, you're doing it wrong. Sign up down for the NFL Access with a faster optimizer, smarter DFS projections, and better results into promo code action for a ten percent discount.

Is that's promo code action for a ten percent discount. Tailor order dot com where millionaires are made back with you BFFs. Right snaffle, Eric Young and Greg's US we're hanging out here on sports Grid. There's a football light Cowboys and Bears. What are you gonna watch? Key mirrors from it? I'm gonna stick home. I've got to I've got a prep for everything tomorrow too. I still have to take some notes for the rest of the games. I've basically taken about ten games worth of notes, so

I gotta finish that up. I've gotta get my my betting notes ready to go for the weekend as well. So uh yeah, basically just gonna be doing some research while watching the game, creaking some beers like you mentioned. I did just want to give out a few other props that I like for tonight. I've I've moved more into the props recently. Unless there's like something I really like in the game, I lean with the under tonight.

I like the Dallas money line. I can see this game being, you know, decided by a late game field goal, so I don't want to take the I don't want to lay the three with the Cowboys. I would take the money line, but Witten over three and a half, Witten over twenty five and a half, Randall cob over forty six and a half, Anthony Miller over fifty and a half receiving yards. Those are my favorite props to the night, all right, the favorite props tonight Thursday night football.

It should be a fun one in the Windy City tonight. Now, let me move on a Sunday, Fay. I want to We wanted to it's playoffs, and our thought was with Virginia out with her torn a c L, he wanted to spend enough time on all these games today and tomorrow we can answer more questions tomorrow. We're not rushing through every game because there's no more buys, right, So, like, there's literally sixteen games this weekend, and we got to

make sure we hit them all. So I wanted to start it hits from of them today, and I want to start in a weird spot, like this is the game that we would wind up not hitting tomorrow. Right, And that's like the Bengals in the Browns where it's love. It's the a f C. North. It's two crumby teams from Ohio, and I like the way you use crummy the way that e Y uses rotten. These are two rotten teams. They are It's exactly what they are, not wrong, just like the usage of the word people really like

any Dalton this week with the Bengals. What people, what true? Jim people from Cincinnati. Jim Sonnis of fan Nuel likes Andy Dalton this week. Well, from a DFS perspective, I'm sure that his salary is really low and that has a lot to do with Cleveland has allowed multiple poven has allowed multiple touchdown passes in eight of twelve games, and they're eight and half point dogs, So that'll be in come back with game. I can see it from

a DFS perspective. But if my if my season one playoffs are on the line outside of a super flex and maybe not even then probably staying away from Andy Dalton. Andy Dalton not on your radar, but this Tyler Boyd on your radar here this week. Frank So, I do like the usage from last week. Obviously right the ten targets with Andy Dalton bag he scored a touchdown. John Ross is expected to be back for this game. I don't think that he's gonna play a full compliment of snaps.

I was actually reading up about John Ross last night. Apparently he was like an inch away from something puncturing and artery on him. You know his injury potentially being fatal, so shout out to John Ross. I'm happy that he's all right. But ultimately, the Cleveland Browns over the past eight weeks, I'm gonna keep referencing this chart because I thought it was I thought it was pretty awesome work. Over the past eight weeks, they're allowing the eighth fewest

Fantasy points to slot receivers. So I think it's a tougher spot here for Tyler Boyd, But based on the usage from last week, he is still in that high end wide receiver three low end wide receiver to territory. Why what say you? Yeah, I'm not super interested in in anybody. The only person that I think that that could have an okay game is Mixing. I feel like, uh, they're they're starting to use him more and use him more properly because he should be catching the ball, running

the ball, get getting heavy usage. So Mixing is a guy that I trust them the Bengals. And if you if I mean, if you have boy You're probably gonna start him. You're not scared of the Cleveland secondary at all. So and there's obviously a connection between him and Andy Dalton. What did you see my tweet last night about Joe Mixon, is that why you brought him up? You wore no I like Joe Maxon. I'd liked him all year. Um,

I have him on a bunch of my teams. But the sad truth is is he just wasn't getting used like like he he should have been. But I feel that has been turning the last couple of weeks. Yeah. Absolutely, So here's what I tweeted out, Greg, drink for everybody at home. Over the last five games for Joe Mixon, he's averaging nineteen point eight carries per game, seventy seven point eight rushing yards, he has three total touchdowns, and he has at least three targets in four of those

five games. During that span, Greg, he is the RB ten in Fantasy points per games. So the workload has been there for Joe Mixon. Starting to score more touchdown targets are up for him as well. And Cleveland is twenty three and run defense TV away, so Joe makes it for me high n RB two On the other side to Cleveland Browns Beckham talking about today, he doesn't nowhere he'll be next year. You have a contract. Think

he'll just go off on an excursion. Who knows, we'll find out a lot of players that just don't play out their contracts nowadays. Does he want to be there? Does he not want to be there? He does? You know what, I'm not gonna answer that question. Maybe he'll be posing for g somewhere. Why is it always receivers? What is it about wide receivers? And they're all lunatics? And why is that? I got another way? It doesn't make any sense, all right, sorry, e y. Maybe it's concussions. Yeah,

that's not a real thing. Set you right up for that. Um for Odell Beckham, I had a question today is why bringing Odell Beckham part up? Start? Three of these guys? Ready, ye Vante Parker beck Um? I think I got the same question Alan Robinson and Kenny Gallina. Yeah, so I got the same question, and I told this gentleman to bench Kenny Golladay as did I. Yeah, and I don't feel great about it because you can throw against the Vikings,

you can actually attack them with wide receivers. The last time the Lions face the Vikings, Marvin Jones had four receiving touchdowns. So you know that you can actually take advantage of the Vikings in that way, but you still have some pause when it comes to David Blow Blow however you want to say his name as the quarterback here for the Detroit Lions, Alan Robinson, The targets have

been consistent. We spoke about that earlier on Odell Beckham. Look, ultimately, you just trust Baker Mayfield in this spot more than you do. You know, a third string quarterback of the Detroit Lions going up against the Cincinnati Bengals, Like, it's a good match up here as well, right, so you would expect Odell Beckham to take advantage of this. You like the quarterback play more so. I think it's close.

But I would choose to bench Kenny Golladay. What about you, Eway, Yeah, I would feel probably the same way as how I would end up answering that question. But man, I don't know. I got Galada looked pretty good last week. Um him and Blow or blow or however you say his name like you guys are saying. I mean, they seemed to be a bit of a connection. I think Golladay that

may have been his best game all year. I'm not a hunter person shirt on that, but I think it is Um and Beckham has just been so such a disappointment for where he was drafted. Um, but I think I would still sit Galladay out of those just because of the matchup for Beckham. Yeah, I agree, man, But it's like you're on the fence there, like you want to use and the thing is with the the thing was blow is why Eileen is just bench Golliday against Minnesota.

You're right, they could be beaten through the air. It's still like a ferocious pass rush, like you only had five targets to that thing. You like. Obviously all of his production, most of his production came on that one seventy five yard play and it was a broken play. It was obviously a misassignment for the Chicago Bears, and that was great, Like if you ended up starting Kenny Golladay.

I actually had to tweet out on Thanksgiving. I apologize to all the people that I told to bench Kenny Golladay, cause you know, I felt terrible. You know, the the guy first play of the game ends up scoring a seventy five yard touchdown, but you know it's a broken play. Those things are gonna happen in the NFL at times. And I think here, just you know, the targets have still been there for Odell Beckham. He's wide receiver twenty six on the season. Yes, he's been a disappointment, but

you know, again the targets are there. You can take advantage of Cincinnati. Actually, you know, while we're talking about this game, I love Jarvis Landry to Greg. I mean, he's wide receiver fourteen on the season. He has double digit targets in five of his last six. You can uh, it's actually easier to target the slot receiver against the Cincinnati Bengals than anything else. So I like both of

these guys. Obviously, Jarvis Landry is a legit, you know, high end wide receiver two at this point, Absolutely, Jervis Landry, as I said in the last couple of weeks, right, the top receiver for Baker Mayfield and the Cleveland Browns. And it has been that way for a little while now, right, would you use Baker Mayfield over Dak Prescott. Baker Mayfield seventeen plus fantasy points in four of his last five games.

Cincinnati's defense has been playing better as of late. You know, the Jets came in hot last week and they they shut that down real quick. Has been a lot better as a late Actually, would I use him over Dock because I saw this question on Twitter earlier and said I would not Baker easily. I would not. I think it's that easy. I would not use him over there

eight and a half point favorites. You can run on this team, right Like, if the Browns get up in this game, you know we're gonna see a lot of Chubb. We're gonna see a lot of Kareem Hunt. I have Nick Chubb is a top three running back this week going up against this Cincinnati Bengals defense, and then Kareem Hunt actually out snapped Nick Chubb for the first time

last week. That's because they were playing from behind. But he has at least five targets in three of four games that he's been active for with the Browns, Cincinnati allowing four point six seven yards for carry of running backs the eighth most fantasy points. I think Kareem Haunt is a low one RB two. I think Nick Chubb is a top five running back this week. Nick Chubbs got to get freaking carries though, man Like, it's very, very frustrating, and he doesn't play any third downs anymore.

They's essentially splitting snaps. So he's all like Derk Henry. Now, it's very frustrating. So Nick Chubb, I guess a lot of it does depending on what Kareem Hunt next year. But Creme Huns back on this team next year, what do you do about Nick Chubb in your draft? I still think that Chubb is going to be a first round pick next year because he has seen a lot of volume. Even with Kareem Hunt being there. You look at his game log, he's still getting twenty carries what

seems like every single week. The targets have been down, but they still use him in the red zone. He gets to the goal line, work um and the talent is obviously there with Nick Chubb. So I think heading into next year, you know whether Kareem Hunt is there or not. If Kareem Hunt is there, Nick Chubb is probably a like a back end first round pick. And I think if Kareem Hunt is gone, Nick chop is probably a top five Pickni. I completely, I'm on the

same page with you. We had about a minute ago before the breaks, let me sneak in one more game here, and that is a game between Detroit Minnesota. We were talking about this with Kenny Golladay anyway. Right, So let's just kind of dive in full throttle here what you do about these pieces? And you've talked a lot of I owned most Garborough about out. You don't want to start Bo Scarborough. This week, I've looked into this a little bit more. Greg, I'm sorry, buddy. I look Wednesdays

are my big research to night, Greg, Bo Scarbro. The usage the past three weeks fourteen, eighteen and twenty one carries Minnesota just got ran all over by Seattle. You traded him away to Creg. It's I didn't trade away. Minnesota had allowed the eighth most fantasy points of running backs over the last I've been trying to tell you that. He said, Oh, despite what they did on one Monday night, like they I still don't want to start about. But they are thirteen point at thirteen point dogs. So I'm

now in the same predicament. Frank, all right, what is your question? Greg? I will try to try to make this about me, and he just turned it about me. Well, I want to help you out. I need the help man. It's it's Bow, it's Patrick Laird, it's Alexander Madison. Oh I feel like yesterday, I probably ranked Boscarborough last of those you did. We're going with boy, Why what about you Bow, Patrick Laird, Alexander Madison, Yeah, I probably go

bow as well. The came out today that Dalvin Cook is going to play Sunday for for certain So so you're saying that the three of us believe we're back, baby.

did you do these Thursday games? I realized yan Sunday games something you can Sorry, um, I realized as we're talking about believing like you probably could actually get us to talk to Bouw Dallas if we if we if we wanted. He believes with us. Yeah, we we probably could. I am Bo uh not much of a fantasy guy out of the b team, that's uh more. Joe Henning, big, big fantasy guy. Uh yeah, bos good dude, it was a good all right, nice? So we all both leave together.

Were believing in Boscar pros this week. I can't believe we're doing this again. We should buy Bo Dallas a bow scarbro jersey from the BFS. All right, we can do that, do that, and then he'll have to become a Detroit like it's on a different team next year. End stink. So we just wasted their money. No, no, no, no no no, I don't know what start over. My man doesn't seem like a good financial decision. Doesn't know a good financial decision. Alright, we could buy Joe. Maybe

we should buy Joe Henning. That way, why we froze when we want to tell you this, I gotta text you after the show and found out about what happened in the next team league. I am still dying to that. Oh yeah, right, all right, we'll dive back into Minnesota, um and Detroit. Frank, you like bow more than you realize now you like you don't hate Alexander Madison either, I don't. I think that he is in the RB

three territory are the flex conversation as well. Uh, Detroit is still allowing a lot of receiving touchdowns to running backs recently, but they actually have been stronger against the position than they were earlier on in the season. They haven't allowed more than seventy five rushing yards to an RB over their last four games. I did mention to you yesterday, Greg what Dalvin Cook did against the Lions last time he faced them, over a hundred yards and

two touchdowns. They've been a little bit better recently, but I think if they get up in this game, when they get up in this game the Minnesota Vikings, they probably put Dalvin Cook on ice. And I think Alexander Madison probably gets his you know, ten to twelve touches, maybe fourteen touches something like that, and against this defense, that should be enough for him to give you flexworthy for auction. So UM, I think that he is in

that conversation. What's Adam feeling status for Sunday? He still is not practicing, so we assume he's out again. We assume that we assumed that he reaggravated his injury last last week. Last Monday, he reaggravated this injury and he's out again. Last week we were trying to figure out not nothing be though he was playing, but no one's really taking advantage outside of Kyle Rudolph. We talked before

UM about some of the tight ends out there. Is Kyle Rudolf, We mentioned Jason Winn's Kyle Rudolph somebody that we can go back to be scored. Obviously a bunch of touchdowns recently. There's no Adam feeling he comfortable going with Kylar Rudolph. I think that he is in that same conversation as Jason Witten. So I have Kyle Rudolf as my tight end fifteen. I have Jason Witten as my tight end sixteen. So they are you know, once you get past the the Mark Andrews Hunter Henry's everyone

is basically a streamer. It's just who has the best matchup. So I have Tyler Higbie ranks very high this week. It doesn't look like ever it's going to be good to go again than Dallas Goddard, vance McDonald against the Cardinals, and then you start to get into the rest of these guys. But Kyler Rolf six touchdowns over his last six games. One of those games was against the Lions, where he once again scored a touchdown. So I think that ky Rolf is in that mix. And the same

thing with Stefon Diggs. I mean, he had nine targets last week, couldn't really do much with those targets, but the last time he faced de seven receptions four a hundred and forty three yards. I think he isn't play as a wide receiver. To know, Adam Feeling, who else are they gonna throw? Totally agree. We've been saying that all year long. Um e y, I I asked you about bow I'll go ask you about Alexander Madison. I know you said, hey, down Cook is probably gonna play.

He's been adamant he's playing Sunday. But from a fantasy perspective, I'm nervous about it. I haven't nervous about it. Can you start Madison? I mean, I feel like, if you're altered desperate, I have him in a league, um where I could play him. I'm not going to play him. I don't need him. It was more of a pickup just in case if Dalvin Cook goes back down. Obviously he's a good running back UH in a great screen scheme for the running backs in a team that wants

to run the ball a lot um. But I think if Dalvin Cook is adamant on playing UH, he's clear to play UH and he's gonna play. So I mean, for me, I wouldn't start Madison unless you absolutely had to start him. And I actually hope that the Lions kind of keep this game close, Greg because if they can, Kirk Cousins should be in play for another great game. Remember earlier on in the season, Adam Feeling called out his quarterback after that game against the Bears where they

just look dreadful. Since then, he is a QB seven in Fantasy points per game, and that's exactly where I have him ranked this week. He is my QB seven. Last time he faced this Detroit Lion secondary through for three d over three hundred yards and four touchdowns. So it's a good matchup. You just need the game to remain competitive or else they're just gonna turn it over to Dalvin Cook and Alexander Madison. Absolutely Kirk Cousins in that spot against Detroit should be a good one. A

lot of Stefon Diggs we expect. Let me go to my quarterback, Frank, that's my man, Matt Ryan. He's with the Atlanta Falcons. Taken on Carol lineup? What nothing? Continue? What? What was that? I don't know what was that? I'm just I'm not a Matt Ryan guy. I know you're not a matter. Where is he and your rankings this week? But let's let's pull it up for you. You're not gonna like this, Craig. That would be QB nineteen. I am very serious. Why are you doing? I am completely serious? Craig.

How about this? I have a nice little stat for you please. Matt Ryan has played four games since returning from his ankle injury. He has four touchdowns and four interceptions. During that span. He has the QB twenty five and Fantasy points for game. What is what is your justification for wanting to play Matt Ryan at this point? Caroline is also a very good matchup to run the football, Greg, Like, there's that's not good? This is uh, this is the old switch roof for you. I just I don't think

Matt Ryan is healthy right now. Yes, if he gets back Julio Jones. He should be all right, he should be serviceable. I just I can't rank him higher than the other quarterbacks that I have ahead of him right now. It's just I like those other guys more. I mean Drew Brees at home, Yes, tough mat to up against San Francisco, but he plays so well at home. Jacobe Burcette going up against the Tampa Bay Bucks secondary, I

really like that matchup for him. You know, maybe Kyler Murray is one that I can move even lower because Pittsburgh has a really good pass rush and they're gonna get after Kyler Murray. But then Ryan Fitzpatrick. I love Fitzpatrick in this game against the Jets. He did really well against him last time he played. So I think that teams can just run, run, run all over the Carolina Panthers, that they don't have to throw that much.

I think DeVonta Freeman has a big game, and you know, maybe Matt Ryan puts up something just pedestrian, like to fifty and one, or you know, like something around there to fifty and two. I just don't think that there's a big upside in this game, right No upside in this one for Matt Ryan says, E y, I assume you're on my side, right, yeah? Oh, I don't know. If I would say I'm on on either of your side, I would probably I don't. I don't do rakings, but

I would put him somewhere in the middle. Matt Ryan, as you guys know, someone I was super high on in the off season. Um, that hasn't come to fruition every week. He's had ups and downs. Um, but I do feel like, uh like they're they're they're gonna push getting Hooper back for him. If that happens, will be a big deal. And obviously having Julio Jones available, we'll make our break one way or the other. If there is no Hooper, a new no Julio Jones, then who

I might be looking for a different quarterback, buddy. It looks like Austin Hooper is going to play here and who and who singful. Julio has been limited, but I think he will be able to play this week. That obviously helps Matt Ryan. I just I like the spots for some of these other quarterbacks this week, the matchups that they have. Uh So I'm I'm out on Matt Ryan.

I think Devantay Freeman has a big game. As I mentioned, we just saw Darius Guys and Adrian Peterson combined for two eight rushing yards and three touchdowns against this Panthers defense. They've just been gashed by running backs all season long. In DeVonta Freeman's first game back, he played sixties seven percent of the snaps. I think he is a solid RB two this week, Craig a solid ORBS two in the mixes. Hudges have been there for Davante Freeman. The

end zone has not been there for Demante Freeman. I agree the solid army two we'll see even get there. I guess a bad Carolina rush defense here this week. On the other side, the questions I've gotten are all about Curtis Samuel and where he stacks off in the wide receivers this week. He's obviously a deep deep target for Kyle allen Um, but he's someone that you should be relying on your fantasy playoffs for Curtis Samuel. Yes, I think Curtis Samuel is a wide receiver three. I

mean that's what he has been. I think that's what he will continue to be. Obviously, you can still throw against this Atlanta Falcon secondary. And you know, while d J Moore is getting all of the attention, and rightfully so, d J. Moore has just elevated himself into wide receiver one status. Curtis Samuel has at least six targets in ten of twelve games, so the you know, the opportunity, the target share has actually been there for him. And uh, we just saw, you know, Atlanta give up some big

games too wide receivers. Recently, Chris Godwin had one eighty four and two. I know it wasn't last week, but it was the last time they played the Saints. Michael Thomas had thirteen for one fifty two. So this Falcon secondary is still sketchy. I think Curtis Samuel is a wide receiver three. D J more bona fide wide receiver one. DJ More absolutely a wide receiver one here against the Atlanta Falcons. I agree with you, Samuel as the wide

receiver three. And we hit another game. Frank, let me get to argue me the game of the weekend, not the game of the weekend, but definitely your top one o'clock game between Baltimore and Buffalo. This game, uh is in Buffalo. Josh Allen against the Ravens. And I've asked you in regards to the quarterback, what do you do about Josh Allen's a really tough schedule. Uh. He Beforward last week in Dallas. This week he's at home against

a tough Baltimore defense. Do you feel comfortable actually go toy to start e y, Do you feel comfortable playing your boy Josh Allen this week at home against Baltimore. He's been good and he's been good all year. Um, playing against the Baltimore Ravens, um is a is a weird place to be. Their defense has been pretty good. Um, the team is amazing, one of my favorite teams I watched. It's just a completely different style of Paul and I believe Lamar Jackson is going to score and that's going

to forest Allan. This is gonna be uh like I feel a real feather game for him, like where you know he can say like I held my own against them. I I I I beat possibly Lamar Jackson straight up. So this is a big game. Yeah, big game for for for Josh Allen, and I would wouldn't feel comfortable starting him, but I think if he's her quarterback, you gotta just start him and hope that he produces like he has been. Baltimore is going up the fourth fewest

fantasy points the quarterbacks this season. Frank. Yeah, and since Marcus Peters has joined the team, no QB has multiple touchdown passes against him. That includes Russell Wilson, Tom Brady, DeShawn Watson, Jared Golf and Jimmy Garoppolo. So some pretty potent offenses there that this secondary has held down. But I'm right there with you, y. I said this last week about Josh Allen going into that Thanksgiving game against

the Cowboys. I think he's matchup proof. He has seven or more fantasy points in eleven of twelve games this season. He doesn't throw for a tont of yards. Only he didn't have it was against New England at home at the end of September and he got knocked out of that game where Matt Barkley came in and he had concussion symptoms, so he didn't get to finish that. Yeah. Look, that's when you know the Patriots defense was still clicking on all cylinders. But ultimately, Josh Allen doesn't throw for

a lot of yards. He doesn't throw for a lot of touchdowns, but he has a safe floor in fantasy because of what he can do with his legs. He's almost like a Lamar Jackson very much. Obviously he doesn't, you know, he's not a running back in a quarterback's body like Lamar Jackson is. You know, he doesn't move the same way, but he does take off and he does run, and he has a safe floor in fantasy because of that. So he is the QB five on

the season. He is my QB twelve. He is a low and QB one for me, I would stream Tannehill and Sam Donald over him. Those are the only like streaming type quarter I would not use Fitzpatrick over Josh Allen this week. I think that the floor is still a little bit lower for Fitzpatrick. But I trust Josh Allen at this point. Right, You're trusting Allen here even in a very very tough matchup. What about the weapons that Josh Allen has. What about Devon Singletary and what

about Frank Gordon, what about John Brown, Cole Beasley? You meagined you mentioned the numbers of cold Basily Yesterday's got more Fantasy points. Is either Odell Beckham has those guys. So I think that Cole Beasley is maybe just outside the wide receiver three territory, but he has been very good. I mean his usage recently at least seventy four yards or a touchdown in six of his last seven games. Uh. Baltimore is third and past defense dv Away. Obviously we

highlighted how good their secondary has been. I think it's easier to throw against the slot against the Baltimore Ravens. They don't allow a lot of big plays, which makes John Brown more of a low end wide receiver two high end wide receiver three. I mean, the targets have just been there all year for John Brown. I don't think that you can get away from It's a revenge game for John Brown as well. I think Cole Beasley is more of a low end wide receiver three in

PPR leagues. Devin Singletary, the workload has been there, the snaps have been there, um starting all your bills you can't get away for and Raheem most are just ran wild against the Ravens. So for me, Devin singles Arry is a very solid RB two right, So you're going still with your bills while going to you with the Baltimore Ravens. Obviously we know about marketing. You know about Lamar Jackson. Do you start Hollywood Brown this week? That's

the question we gotta answer. Yeah, I think you do, because I think that the Buffalo Bills are going to score as well, and this game is going to be very interesting. I'll be watching it for sure. Uh, Buffalo Bills, saying fan from birth, Titans is my team of choice, but a piece of my soul will always be with the Buffalo Bills. Mark Andrews against the best tight end events in the league, to spot for Andrews, for e Y and Frank, I'm Greg. We'll do it all go tomorrow.

We hope NFL season is now upon us so you can be going to the eighth person away one million dollars in a Fandel Draft Kings tournament. My sittinger lineups using the Daily Order dot Com DFS a lot of optimizer. If you were playing Dailey Fantasy Sports and not using Daily Order dot Com, you're doing it wrong. It's not. Now for the NFL Access with a faster optimizer, smarter DFS projections, and better results into promo code action for

You know, one production is telling me to wear this, the other production is telling me to wear that. So you know what, Greg, I'm just gonna wear a button down shirt. We go over to MSG later, I'll throw on a little jacket. We'll be all good, buddy, alright, we'll be all good. All right, So let's I know

when the end of the games. Are you in the Thursday Night football and no Virginia Zaka she tore her a c L. How ab the irony in that she tore her a c L from inside injuries? Uh, it seems that she has quite the injury herself playing soccer. Yeah, I didn't know that she was. Yeah, so that is very unfortunate. We will not have her this week. Hopefully she'll be she'll be good to go in in the coming weeks after she has surgery. But yeah, we we asked her what her optimal recovery time was. I don't

think she liked those shown. Game Wen gave her optable recovery time. She didn't like that one either it's no response. Um. In fact, you just might never join us again, Craig, at this point, it would be the first girl you shoot away. What does that mean? You know what it means? I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know what you're talking about. What it means? All right, that's kind of some breaking news before we hit the break.

James Conner, Oh, this Sunday for the Bittsburgh Steelers. He will not return at Arizona. Are you comfortably e y going back to bank Snell? Yeah? I think so. I mean, I mean, I think if you have Benny Snell, or you know, you were carrying Benny Snell in replace of Connor, Like, what choice do you have? It's not like, uh, you would have a bunch of other running backs that you could get. I mean snow looked, okay? Uh So I mean comfortable. I don't think would be the word to

describe it. I think I would I'd feel forced to play him. I don't know if force is the right word either. You're right, you like I wouldn't feel comfortable with it. I think I would just feel fine. Like that's the word that I would say about Benny Snell as a as a low end RB two, a high end RB three flex option. You know he's not gonna

do anything in the past game. He got up to a real slow start last week, Greg and I was worried we're using Janellen Samuel's early on in that game, and kath White was getting his U his five carries in the first half of that game as well. But ultimately, when when it came pushed, the show of Benny Snell ended up being the guy. He scored a touchdown. He tried his best to do a goal gold dunk. It was more like a layup and he snelled more of

a well you're not allowed to Duncan anymore. Yeah, he's he's a he's a heavier fellow, so I don't think that he has the the ups to to get up there to the goal post. But he did try his best. He scored a touchdown. The workload has been there for him against Arizona. I think it should be a competitive game. Actually really liked the Steelers in that game. Um So, I think he's a solid flex option, a high end flex option. Greate woud you're the star, James M. Benny

Snell or the Niners guys Matt Reeder. He mostarred Devin Coleman. So that's basically where I'm up to in my ranking. So I've ranked my top twenty four and then it's just black. Everything else. It's Benny Snell, it's the forty Niners running back. So I'm currently working on that, but as of now, based on the news that we got from James Conner being out, I would prefer Benny Snell over the forty Niners. Are you? I probably agree there's too much a question when comes to Niners, at least

by Snell. You know, we were again, especially gains Arizona
