Week 5 recap, why not Drake, Joe Mixon workload, Jets dominate, and more...

You're listening to the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Fantasy Best Friends Forever, m Do do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do do DoD it to yeo. This is the Fantasy Best Friend just forever here on the Fantasy for Which ready that work alongside Frankie Standford. I am Greg Friday. What's going on Monday? Greg got a fun game tonight Washington, New Orleans. But before then, recap week five. Obviously it was a fun week.

It's a good week. I thought it was, you know, a little bit of bounce back performances for a lot of players. It was a fun week. It was a fun day overall. Dude. I felt disgusting yesterday in my home league. I had to start Kenyan Drake and Isaiah crowl that all right, boy, how did that work out? Worked out? All right? I mean I wanted to get out Kenyan Drake. You heard the probram at the top of the show was was you talking about Kenyan Drake from Friday? And I wanted to get into it because

he's still got out rushed by Frank were Yeah. I don't get it, man, I really don't. Yeah, And you're not going to get it. You're never going to get it. As long as Adam Gaze is the head coach of this football team, it's very obvious that Kenyan Drake is their best offensive weapon. I think about yesterday, Greg is that you can't really not get that much because Frank Gore was running well like I was terrible. You can't you know, I would understand being more mad about it.

But yes, he he out carried Kenyan Drake two to one. He had twelve carries to Kenyan Drake six. Kenyan Drake was targeted at eleven times, though that tied a career high, something that he did once last year as well. So if he's being used this much in the past game, I think we could be more optimistic about him, but still ultimately only having six carries in a game where the Dolphins were leading for most of this game until really the fourth quarter where that game just like really

flipped on a dime. You have to be someone worried. So you know, if someone's willing to buy back in on Kenyan Drake and look at this, um what he did in the receiving game in the past game, uh, and you could just kind of sell him based off that. I think you gotta try to because overall, I still don't trust it, just based on it being the Miami Dolphins and Namgays, so we're selling high on Kenyan Drake.

I would try. I mean again, like, I don't know how many people are coming to get Kenyan Drake from you, unless like Chris Ventro plays league. But outside of that, like I just don't know how solid after Kenyan Drake is. Someone in a PPR league might look at this and say, wow, you know, eleven targets, seven receptions, whatever it was, and

they'll get excited over it. But overall, I think, you know, you you take that as a positive, but what happened on the in in the ground game is kind of like the negative part of it, but he rushed well like Kenyan Drake still had six carries for like what nine yards, like his yards were carry was very good, but he still, you know, got doubled up by Frank Gore, which doesn't seem like it's going to change anytime soon. You know. It's interesting. It's interesting because I have Kenyan

Drake is my third RB on my team. I'd love to upgrade him. But the problem is, no, I said this on Friday, there's no running backs out there. There's just no running backs out there. And what you got a Kenyan Drake and what you got out of Isaiah Krawl yesterday is prime third running back territory. Essentially, this is kind of how it works. Well. I mean when I say a crowl did yesterday with no third right, yeah, no, no, I get your thinking. He was he was awesome yesterday,

but he's been super inconsistent. He's like the Amori Cooper of the running backs. But that's what I'm saying. He said three great games, he said two terrible. He's a fine third RB on your team. You don't want to trust him weekend a week out like, but on the bye weeks you're like, okay, But now I guarantee you that because this is what happens, everyone is reactionary obviously, because now everyone's gonna want to get Isaiah Crowell in their lineup next week, and it might not be a

bad play because they're going up against the Colts. Well, I'll say this back to Kenyan Drake. I don't feel a need to like push Kenyan Drink in my line up. I'm not. I don't like who are even more likely to want to play Isaiah Crowell following this performance, or Kenyan Drake. So Isaiah Cruel faces the Colts next week?

It was just and the Dolphins face Hill. You know, I do not know I pull it off for you, Okay, I think that will probably depend if I have both of these running backs, which which I know you do, which one would I start? I probably want to start Isaiah Cruel like what bears coming off a bye, I'm gonna start all Yeah, I agree with you. It's not really close, I don't think, because what's the other thing.

Where's the other thing I'm looking for here? Um, So, yesterday in that game against Denver, Isaiah Rall had fifteen carries, but Powell had twenty. So Powell still had a significant not significantly, but five more carries than Isaiah Crowell. But Isaiah Carel had over two hundred yards rushing in the seventy seven yeard touchdown. Unbelievable game for Isaiah Correll, but it's still a committee. I'd rather have that. I'd rather

Correll than getting Drake at this moment. Yes, I guess in a vacuum, but it's just gonna depend on matchups week in a week out, like these guys are still going to be very inconsistent, because can youan Drake has Frank or Isaiah crow Will has bal Powell. And it was a phenomenal game. Two und ninety yards actually set the single game franchise record for the New York Justicity, surpassing a record set by Thomas Jones before when he rushed for two hundred and ten yards, So two undred

nineteen yards. He gassed the Broncos multiple times. You heard Cowell acted the game. Really think his offensive line, and I think you know, they showed up. This was clearly their best game of the year. They were they they pass box for Donald, they were excellent run blocking as well. I don't know if it was a thing of just the Broncos traveling west from West coast to east and they just didn't show up for this game, or it's a it's a matter of, you know, the Jets actually

pushing that team around. So I guess we'll learn more about it next week. But honestly, the Colts defense hasn't been great either, So Isaiah Roll, I think it's gonna be in a good position to be a high end flex running back. I'm not ready to push him into like RB two territory because that seems too reactionary to me.

Greg the let's stock, Let's stick with the Jets, let's si, let's sick Robbie Anderston and what he did yesterday with two long touchdowns and Sam Donald throwing it up to him and feeling more confident in being able to do that with Robbie Anderson. People pointed out to a risk injury by Quincy and Nona Um Robbie Anderson probably a hot pickup now off the waiver wire. I would assume that trust seems to be gaining between the rookie quarterback

and Abby Anderson. Yeah. Overall, I mean, from a fantasy perspective, I'm still not going to trust it all that much. Yes, he had five targets, which was um the lead, it

was the lead for the for the Jets yesterday. But it's just it's still it's just so boom or bust, Like there's nothing that you could take away, like if he was targeted eight nine times in this game, was you know, targeted on uh different kinds of routes, you know, intermediate routes, short routes, like if he looked like you know, they were gaining more momentum as and all around receiver, I would feel better about Robbie Anderson because that's what we saw last year out of him, and that's what

we saw, you know, as his progression as a wide receiver at the NFL level, is that he was being used on short, intermediate routes last year for Josh McCown. Yes, he caught a fair share of deep touchdowns, but he was being used mainly as the go to receivers for the Jets. Now, if Quincy Noa was forced to miss time because of his hand or risk injury, then maybe that's how you feel a little bit better about Robbie Anderson.

But to me, yeah, it's a positive for the progression of Sam Donald I think from like an NFL perspective, but from a fantasy perspective overall the reliability, I'm yeah, I'm not counting on Robby Anderson. He to me he's just like a boomer bust Bybeek replacement, and by like, he's not gonna be inside my top thirty six next week unless Quincy Moon was out Bybeek replacement injury replacement, which leads me to l a with the Rams, who

once again one in Seattle. Sean McVeigh was um, not courageous, but made the right call on fourth and one, going for the win, as you want your coach to do, but it came at a cost. Two of his wide receivers go down with concussions. Brandon Cooks takes the nasty, nasty hit, um, and you knew immediately he was done for the day and hopefully not much longer than that. He was not walking around moving around, so you feel good but clearly concussed. That was the brutal hit that

Brandon Cooks took. And then I believe it came on the Hail Mary at the end of the last play of the first half where Cooper Cup got roughed up. There Um, and was not seen in the second half as he was also concussed. Nothing is some think near these brutal as the Brandon Cook's hit, but certainly some roughly of feathers there in the end zone as everyone

was fighting for positioning and for the ball. As both Cup and Cooks lead this game, if either if both of them, I should say not either, but if both of them are expected to miss time or wind up missing time next weekend, Josh Reynolds is somebody gonna want

to pick up and play because yeah, Girl is amazing. Yeah, Robert Woods is amazing, but there's more than just them, And to me, Josh Reynolds was shot out of cannon at the beginning of that second half, and I think he'll be more involved in the game plan next week. He is somebody I would look at. Hopefully Cup and or Cooks are able to play and get through this

concussion by next weekend. Thow. Yeah, this is completely hypothetical on your part, but I understand it because that's exactly what I thought too while I was watching that game in the second half, him coming out, and it's really any wide receivers that are on the field for the

Rams are going to be fantasy viable. So I would say, certainly, like if I'm a Brandon Cook's owner, if i just have like a dead roster spot that I'm not using, I'm probably gonna pick up Josh Reynolds just uh in in the case that Brandon Cooks mrs next week because of this concussion issue or even further than that, so you kind of it's kind of like a handcuff situation.

I guess for RAMS wide receivers um, I would feel better about Cooper Cup playing next week obviously because we didn't have that vicious, vicious hit that we saw at a Brandon Cooks and again but again we have no but like we don't know, we don't know, right and we didn't see necessarily the slow mo um with Cooper Cup by any means. I mean, it could be just as bad, and it could be just as bad, but I don't know. Cooper Cups concussion history was that with

Dr Roy on Thursday, No doubt. Brandon Cooks remember in the Super Bowl, it's a nasty hit and missing entire second half of the Super Bowl, just like he did this past Sunday. So come back to back years with concussions or Brandon Cooks something a little bit and it looked very serious, so we'll say yeah. And with Cooper Cup, even before he left the game, nine targets led the team, tickets receptions, led a team ninety yards just behind Robert Woods,

and scored the touchdown. Cooper Cup is clearly the go to guy, and I've been saying that every single week. I ranked him the highest just because he's that safety target for Jared Goff in the middle of the field, playing predominantly that roll for the Los Angeles Rams. But he's also targeted a ton in the red zone. So I'm just gonna continue rank him the highest, assuming that

he is healthy. But even after he left, we saw Robert Woods just pick up where those guys left off, right, Like you know, if they're not able to go, it's just Robert Woods time five receptions yards, had two rushes for fifty three yards. Looked explosive. Again, the way that John McVeigh uses these guys, you can plug and play any receiver in like any role of this offense, and they're all capable of just like picking up the slack.

So again, if Brandon Cooks isn't able to go, you're gonna look at it, Josh Reynolds, but it's gonna be arrow pointing up for specifically Robert Woods. Yeah, no doubt, no doubt about it. It's not girly two. And I think in DFS you may be able to use one of these tight ends and I think they get more involved. Gerald Levart and Tyler Higbee. Um, they combined for seven targets, but it's just so hard to figure out which one take away from each other. Absolutely, I'm not again, not

sure which one it would be. But this offense is going to keep moving and keep holding along. Of course, they're out in l A. It's only nine fifteen out there, so we're not exactly sure when we'll get that update on Cup and Cooks. Hopefully soon. I'm sure they'll call one of these concussions minor, No concussions minor, and we know that already. Um, but hopefully it's not long or

extended absences for either of these awesome wide receivers. The rams THEREBYA believe it doesn't come in to week twelve, so we have quite a long time before they get some relief there. Speaking of concussions, Jeronimo Allison wound up not playing. He also heard his hamstring. He was out yesterday for the Green Bay Packers. Didn't play Randall Cobb. Maybe it's her next week. He didn't play yesterday, So it was all about and the s. He was great yesterday, Frankie, Yeah,

he absolutely was. This was a perfect game, script game for Aaron Rodgers owners, for Packers receivers owners, because they got down early in this game. Um, and you know, Rogers really had that that big breakout game that we've been waiting for for a while. Four hundred and forty two passing yards, three touchdowns. As of right now, he is the Q you be one. We still have Drew Brees and Alex Smith to play tonight. But it was

a great game for the package receivers. Obviously, Davantae Adams went absolutely off a guy that was battling a calf injury going up against Darius Slay. You might have been a little bit worried about that, but just look, when Devanta Adams plays, he's in your lineup, you don't worry about it. Like there's just absolutely no question marks. Twelve targets,

nine receptions, a hundred forty yards and a touchdown. He actually dropped what could have been another long pass that would have set up the Packers inside the five yard line as well, but Equanimius sink Brown got involved five targets, three receptions for eighty nine yards s B s b Uh and an mvs. Marquez Valdes Scantling ten targets. Three

players with double digit targets in this game. He had ten, Jimmy Graham had eleven, and Davanta Adams had twelve mvs with seven receptions sixty eight yards and a touchdown nearly twenty points in a PPR. What sucks is that he was on our bench in GST Greg, which we're probably gonna lose in. We were so excited about last week. We thought we had it there. Well, I also have to give you credit, Greg, really resilient, Greg Sussman and its flex team. It looked like you're gonna beat me

with a t Y Hilton in your lineup. You know. Donut was really it was really frustrating because it wasn't like I didn't look at Mike. I gotta Mari Cooper. You got Mark Cooper. No, you got a Mark Cooper, you got Maria Cooper, and you got um somebody else got her for you midnight too. I beleave Cooper Cup who's having a bright that's Tyler Boyd Like I still love the lineup. It's just guys just didn't show up. Yeah, So le's se why Hill, Let's se why Hilton thing.

It was so frustrating because I looked at by a lot of and said it and I don't I don't know how I just missed the Hilton thing. And the worst part about that was I would look who I would have started. I would have either started one or two players. It would have either been Philip dor set On also Thursday night, who did nothing, or Mike Davis, who did do something yesterday for Seattle. Let's actually get into Seattle here for a moment. Frankie the ghost of

Doug Baldwin's past. Yeah, exactly. Tyler Lockett looked good in in limited opportunities and that was the name of the game for me, limited opportunities. I believe Russell Wilson only through the wall twenty one times yesterday, which is going to which is going to result in very very little production from the wide receivers. Now, you thought that through twenty one passes it would be a lot for Doug Balwin, not so much one catch, one yard. Yeah, And I

said this last week. I thought it's set up for a solid Doug Baldwin game because you have Marcus Peters on the outside. I think the way to attack the Rams overall is over the middle of the field in the slot. That's you know, mostly where Doug Baldwin plays for this team. And I looked it up. He played over of the snaps. He was just targeted one time. That was the thing he pelling. He left the game everything. You know, people are freaking out tweeting, where's Doug Baldwin

is he in the game he used to playing. He was in for over eight percent of the snaps. He had just one target, one reception for one yard. Again, as you mentioned, there was only twenty one past attempts, so no one dominated targets in this game. Tyler Lockett led the team in receiving with ninety yards, but he only targeted five times. He had three years since he had a touchdown. We had who is David Moore? David Moore? I mean, look, if you knew who David Moore was

before this Sunday, raised your hand. He had four targets, three receptions for thirty eight yards and two touchdowns. We thought, you know, maybe some of that production was gonna go to Doug Baldwin in this game. And I actually had

a stat of the day today Greg Russell Wilson. I mean, you could argue that he's droppable, and I feel like we do this at this point every year with Russell Wilson, and he goes off to have a crazy second half, but in the Brian Schottenheimer offense, he's just not running the ball. He's not rushing at all. He had zero rushing attempts yesterday, Greg, and rushing is so valuable to Russell Wilson's fantasy production. Entering this season, he averaged five

hundred and forty five rushing yards per season. Greg. He hasn't had more than twenty one rushing yards in any game. He's on pace for one hundred and thirty four rushing yards one and thirty four. There's a guy who consistently gets over five hundred rushing yards Russell Wilson. I would say he's borderline droppable, But we've seen have these monster second half season, so I didn't you just kind of ride it out? But I can't start him right now, even with the three touchdowns, I don't trust it. I

completely agree. We're gonna take a break here. We're gonna continuing around the NFL. When we returned, it's your fantasy best friends forever.

You know what's interesting you You haven't really said anything debated that. Yeah, I didn't get I just walked in. I didn't get a good morning to that. It wasn't even know all about that business today, all about that business like not even wanted to get I wanted to get some work done. Did you get work?

Get work? Yeah? I edited like two NBA videos. Great, like more to go and more to go about the business you are? You were like literally, we're a little short staff day, which is cool. So we're all getting done. We're all working, you know, extra hard. Um. So I'm on video producing Corton Show and Frank like walks in. We make eye contact and immediately sits down with the dead phones on, and I'm like, I'm not sure if

he's mad at me. I don't think I'm not. I'm like, I don't a little mad at you for beating me puts up fifteen points tonight. I was in a non BBR it's not gonna happen. I was like, I don't think I did anything wrong, Like I didn't. I did do and vandel this week. I didn't want to talk about that. I was. I was first place, really on. But then I saw my score and I was like,

this is not gonna hold up. I was not good, so I made my so Fright texted me during the Yankee game go yeank, like like yank because like, dude, it's six inning, let's let's chill with that. And and before before the Gary Sanchez home run, uh, let'a tell how much story about my weekend? I you don't mind. At some point, I was also crushing Gary Santez and then you hit that home run and everyone in my house was like, you're an idiot. Don't talk bad about Gary.

I was Red Sox fans like crushing and war on Uniez, who like made a lot of nice places. And then obviously they threw it away and I was like, yeah, um looking at your Fandel roster. Now, wow, you went back to the Juio Jones. Well, yeah, I don't know. I had a good feeling, like I made my team Saturday night, so Fright texted me making your teams, like I make it. I make it Sunday mornings every week. I've never forgotten to do it, so I always do

it Sunday morning. You wait all the informations out. But he texted me like, you know what, let me just get this done. Um, so I do it. I felt really really good about it too, Frank. I really liked my line up. Um, I stacked Deanie and Blake. I thought it was great against Kansas City. I got Julio and ju Ju in there. Like, this team is good

and I'm in the last place, second last place. Chris Thompson Right, I felt great about my team too, Like I staggered with Steelers, I had big band ahead Connor, I had Juju scored a touchdown. The problem was I punted tight end. I just went with the wrong tight end. In the same game, I used Vance McDonald instead of Austin Hooper. I don't think there's any way to really know between those guys. Like nobody knew Austin Hooper was gonna lead the Falcons and Targets receptions, receiving yards like

obviously nobody knew that was gonna happen. The Tennessee Titans like whatever, they were fine. Christian McCaffrey did his thing healing Cole. You know, I think the process to thinking on heeling Cole was correct. He was super cheap. I wanted some exposure to this Jaguars passing attack. The Jaguars, by the way, like Blake portals, we every single year, it's like the same thing a Mari Cooper Blake portles

Marie Cooper Blake portals. Those two are Dr Jekyl and Mr Hyde did the same exact person one week at Marity Cooper can look awesome. Ten receptions a hundred yards, give me a touch down, looks like you know, he's on the verge of breaking out. Blake Bortles were excited going into Kansas City facing that chief secondary which could be had for fantasy points. Obviously laser Duck like he still through four had a fantasy This was classic Blake Bortles.

Like this was like year one and year two Blake Bortles garbage time, fantasy production, four interceptions and hopefully his interception off the helmet like replaces the butt fumble because that's a Jets fan. We could just kind of like suit that one under the rug. But that was bad, dude, brutal, brutal.

But also that was the thing, like I know I need that Blake Portles, is that this brutal ganin I'm watching friend Zone a bit um back to your you know your idea, don't start bad quarterbacks in good match. That's why I didn't start him in real life, right like I started him in a um in the fantal whatever,

it's good match, but he didn't take a shot. How many Fantasy points to the end up with and family had twenty five voids, So that's fine, And I'm just like, this was the thing I paid up for, Big Ben, And yeah, you got more production out of Blake Bortles for four ten hundred dollars less. I was shocked when I looked at Vandi, like, how did this get points? I don't understand. He was rushing touchdown exactly. He was

horrible yesterday, so bad. This is like what's crazy is if you if you look at like the box scores after the game, it's like Patrick Mahomes did not play a good game, like he was actually human in this game. He threw for three hundred yards, had a couple of interceptions, but had the rushing touchdown. What his team one Like from a fantasy perspective, Blake Mortals had the better day, but the Chiefs came out on top. And that's I mean,

that's what manners. If you're a Chief fan, I guess, or if you're betting the game too, just don't bet against play against Patrick Mahomes. Right now, I'm an idiot. Sunday night, New England Hats are three and a half point favorite. I believe they opened us. Yeahould be great. That's gonna be fun. Can we get away from like stop putting teams from Texas on on like in primetime games at the same time, like the Texans or the Cowboys.

Just don't do it. Anymore. Like the Texans are a little bit more tolerable because they have just why saying like they have Deandra Hopkins like it's fun whatever. So I know you're a little bit. I know you're a little bit different than me. Do you get footballed out on some of the nights? But it rolls around? No, I mean what I'm normally doing on Sunday nights is

like I'm kind of like half watching the game. I'm like really like diving into box scores and looking at snaps and stuff like kind of watching at well, we kind of like watched the first half together, honestly. So so for me by last night, um, I was done. Like I watched it all day. I was just like, but the thing is, I missed the early game because I was at Comic Con, so I didn't get home at three. It very very different. Yeah, so I want everyone text to me about the Jets. I'm like, what's

going on? Maybe I should never watched the games. So I was just done. I was much more interested in the baseball game last night, which is great. But the Braves and the Dodgers, I told, yeah, the Ronald home run now, so that was much more exciting. To me, and I was like, I don't want to watch the Texans and the Cowboys out. You didn't miss out on anything to like just bet Cowboys unders like that's a lock. Just please stop putting Texas football teams on in prime time.

I understand. Oh, it's America's team. They're boring, They're boring. I tweeted this out last night. Greg jeff Swain was their leading receiver fifty five yards like swallow your pride and called des Bryant bring him back. They won't, like, do something bring back tarall Owens. Yeah, Like the receivers are are bad. Maybe Jet maybe that's just bad. Maybe Dak is just bad. But how can you blame him if these are were not I'm not necessarily blaming him.

The play calling wasn't good last night. Doc is no, it's never good brides and tweeting about for the past year. We could be in for a bit of a regime training, regime change in Dallas after this year. Jim Harball, imagine that, Jah, really I Jimmy in the Big Dry pay for it, you know, Jerry payoff for it. By the way that Rex Ryan in the Big d does that. I saw Rob Ryan that I saw Rob Ryan here. You might

have mentioned something like that. You might have mentioned it to someone else then I kind of overheard it, right, How was that? Was he like beating anyone up? Wasn't that a thing he was eating? I think there was. Wasn't there a video, like a viral video of like Rob Ryan getting in a fight at a bar or something like that? Sounds about right. Yeah.

So for me on Saturday that you did a very youth thing yesterday, very you thing. On Saturday, I did

a very mean thing. Spike Ball no baking. Uh no, I told you what I was doing. Oh he was in the control room when I told you what I was doing. Uh darn it. Did I have my headphones on? I don't remember eats? Oh right, al right, Yeah, it was eats Con. Yeah, yeah, I saw some other people on my my Instagram feed go there. Yeah it was awesome. I eat so much at eats Con. I did not eat dinner on Saturday evening, and you know I love dinner food right and eat dinner. We all went out

to celebrate. Um, Jeff like announced his greamsman, and Jeff made a bit of reduction because Jeff does um so yes, okay, yes, um his dad wanted to bring him back on the show. Okay, um. So he served all this pizza and all pizza and wings, had some a bunch of booze, and then we went to a bar and Jake water and I didn't eat any food, not didn't drink anything either. Now I was was just like so full, you could still full and hungover that point you were hungover from drank eats Con.

Oh so you were like hungover in the same day. Yeah, it was bad. So then Sunday happened. Do you know I wouldn't be able to do that. Sorry for cutting you off. It's because I would eat so much and when I do that, I'm like I can't move. So that was me. So I had to go to Jeff's like like I fall, I fell asleep, and I think I had good to Jeffs like I was immobile. I was still. I felt so horrible about myself and all honestly, like I was at the point, yeah, oh my god,

we gotta tell us about that. I got. We'll show you the pictures during the break. But I was so full sitting at Jeff's like I was like, I don't think I'm ever going to be hungry again, Like I'm nervous. I don't think I'm gonna be hunger again. Seriously. So then yesterday we met um Junia, I met our parents for were um brunch. We went to this place, Harold's in New Jersey is very very famous deli plays I

ate like a grilled cheese, like very plain. And then last night for dinner we had we made our own pizza Friday night, which is like I love doing that. You and k should do that, very fun, like you make your own pizza. Whatever saw us we were topping is great. My dad used to make these little like homemade pizzas on like the small ones on English muffins. So we made our own the whole thing, but we made like a salad with it, like arugula and vegetables

when I I know that. So we ate, like, let's say half the salad on Friday night, we see the other half, which I thought I just bring for lunch today Instead on Sunday night, we split that half the salad we had left and ate it for dinner. And that was all that. Are you hungry yet? Now? Yes? All right, so it's coming back. So this morning I had my breakfast like I had an apple in a bar, like normal breakfast. We need the same thing. You realize that I do. And now it's like, oh, I'm I'm back.

So you're gonna chat down on a salad after this, Greggy, you were a sandwich today, I because I was not like feeling it yesterday. I need to go to the supermarket yesterday, just gonna buy something. I think my um my mom and Judy's off today for Columbus Day, which is ridiculous. Of course, I know, right, So she's off, So our moms are in town doing like Flora's stuff for the wedding, for your wedding. Yes, already got a book. You got a book stuff. It's crazy and I don't

look forward to this. Well, I'm not doing I'm here with you. I'm talking sports. Um. So they had an appointment at eleven and the next one nothing. You said, we're talking sports and and I just started thinking of the song we're talking. So they an appointment at eleven and then another one to thirty. So I think they're coming by for lunch in right at our show. Oh so you're gonna eat with them? Yeah? Where are you gonna go? Here? I think? So? Sorry, It's just easy.

It's easy for me because like we have a lot of fantos stuff going on. I know, a shorthand and I want to get back down downstairs. Um, and you know I'm not paying the mothers are, so yeah, unless I wind up treating and I'm like, I can I expect this exact legal? What's your mom's name? Leslie? Lunch On, Leslie, lunch On Leslie. Yeah, that was great, that was great. Should they they should be here? Um pretty shortly? OK? At A four four, four, three, six seven nine. Let's

get back into the games from yesterday. Frank we Um we hit on Seattle. It came to dugbald them. But when was getting in of Mike Davis, Chris Carson thing Mike Davids was the goal. I'm back. He looked good. Chris Carson also looked really good. Yesterday Rashan Petty they didn't play. Um. What did you think of the Seattle backfield? What do you think about it going forward? I think it's I think it's like Chris Carson six and Mike

Davis until further notice. I think we're like at a running back by committee with both of these running backs. I will say I feel better about the Seahawks running game, more so than I did coming into the season, and more so than I did about two or three weeks ago. The offensive line has played better. I don't know if it's d J. Fluker getting healthy and his addition back to this offensive line, but over the past two weeks they have been able to run the football. I don't

know if that's just a product of their matchups. Last week they faced the Cardinals, obviously that's a good matchup for running backs. And in this week they faced the Rams. But last week it was Mike Davis that was with Chris Carson out. But then this week Pete Carroll went right back to his guy Chris Carson. Uh. You know, at about twenty touches. He might have been over twenty touches, but he had more than Mike Davis. The frustrating part

is that Mike Davis scored the touchdown. Um, but I'll say, I'll say both guys are kind of like in the flex discussion right now. I think the Seahawks running back situation is very similar to the Jets, very similar to the Broncos. Like, both guys are gonna be in the flex discussion, but the like neither one's going to be an RB two or a top twenty four running back unless the other one gets hurt. I think it's just

kind of like a sixty split. And we saw that yesterday with the snap percentage Chris Carson in fifty eight point three percent of the time and Mike Davison at forty one point six seven percent of the time. So it's pretty much and even to split you fifty eight for Mike Davis. Yeah, I think they're both like flex options.

I think so too. I think so too. I don't think he's he's Mike Davis is the backup short of Chris Carson, but as Frank mentioned, he's also playing not side by side with him, but even with him, Mike Davis fourteen touches and Chris Carson twenty We have snapcats yet probably not right. Well, I just gave you the percentage it was. It was Chris Carson and Mike Davis, so it's like sixty. It's no Overshod Penny. So they

split it evenly just between those two. Unbelievable. Man. On what more can you say about the Seahawks, Like is there a disconnect between the front office and what Pete Carroll wants to do? Like maybe he didn't want them to draft a running back? Like why did they? Why did they draft him if they're not going to use it? It just doesn't make sense. It makes their every single thing Pete Carroll has said pretty much, it's the day they drafted Rashade Penny. Is that Chris Carthon is this guy? Yeah,

So where's the disconnect right now? Something's not right. Yeah, it's very very weird. It's very weird, weird, very weird. By the way, all week at a feelings, specifically in dfs um at our player pool that we do about Joe Mixon. I told you this on Friday. You did have him in your lap. Good I whoosed out on Sunday morning. Um no Gio Jenny VII Bernard. I thought Joe Mixon was gonna get everything, and then every report you read from the since any inquirer from Rhodal World anywhere,

he's gonna be livinged. He's not gonna get a pull on the snaps. He's going to be supplemented. But now Mike Well, um, Mark Walton whatever schmuck's name is, right, Like, do I really trust this Walton guy? Like this is this is this is not real. I know this is not real. I'm reading through the b S at Rodal World. I know it's fake. And I was like, you know what, it's DFS. It's a player pool like huge mixing next week, right,

he's not going away anytime. So yeon, So I didn't do it, You're probably have to pay more from next week though, exactly Mixing yesterday ninety three ninety three yards rushing, catches a touchdown and played the most offensive snaps he ever has in his career. Yep, and and freaking knew

it man. Yeah, and you know he he was in on seventy of the snaps, so you know the majority there and that's you know that was might worry with Joe Maxon, I will admittedly tell you that last week I was worried about him, but once Jovanni Bernard was ruled out, I just didn't see where else they were going to go. Like, I didn't think Mark Walton was going to get much in this game, and honestly he didn't. Joe max In saw of the running back carries for

this team. Yesterday. He had twenty two carries and he saw four of seven running back targets. All Mark Walton had was three targets in this game, so between carries and targets, still makes saw twenty six of those. So he pretty much dominated the market share for the running

back touches in this game for the Bengals. As long as Giovanni Bernard is out, Joe Mixon is back to being this low end RB one and you can my argument against Joe Mixon was that Giovanni Bernard has earned a role back in this offense based on what he did when Joe Mixon was out. Now, if Giovanni Bernard and misses time and Joe Mixon just takes off and dominates without him, then they're just going to go back to what they were doing early on in the year

with Joe Mixon just dominating touches exactly. So I think, based on this performance, if you have Joe Mixon or if you trade it for him, and if you acquire him or buy butt low on him, feel pretty damn good about him. Right now, I was wrong, I will openly admitute. Speaking of buying low, it seems like the window may have closed for another star player who finally got in the end zone twice yesterday. Let's talk about

him when we come back. If you're someone that needs fantasy sports advice every day, the Fantasy Sports Radio Network has you covered.

But actually I purchased them. What is this keep Matthews a great not a great day Matthews song goes, so you're gonna see them the times? Is it is that forty five already? I don't think so, right, Yeah, but i'd be like twenty times too many? It's very nice. Sorry.

You'd probably feel the same way about Metallica. How many times have you seen them? Seven? I would think like one show would be fine Metallica, like you want to go next time? Just seeing only I go to General and Misson and I will be in mos pits. Don't want to enjoy, no, no, no, no no no. I just want to see they play under Salmon sometimes. Yeah, they always play it. I would want to cover that. I always play that. They always played Master of Puppets Unforgiven,

Like that's a lock. Okay, yeah, those are always there, and then you know, if they have an album out, then they'll you know, obviously get it. But I did see once and this was like, by far the best show I've seen and I will ever see. It was like an abandoned airfield in Atlantic City, and I went

to bader Field. That's probably it. I went to a two day Metallica like festival and one day they played the entire Black album, and then next day they played the entire Ride the Lightning album and there are songs off those albums that they never play. It was amazing. It's funny, so great because bader Field I went to Dave Matthews seriously, and Dave Matthew's caravan they call it was like a three day stable highlighted by a full day Matthews band set each night at the festival. That's

exactly what it was from. And they played event seven fold played one day was all right exactly, and they didn't play any of the same songs any of the three nights. Very cool, it was really so. It was so it was almost like, you know, sixty seven different songs they played. Like it's awesome. So I love mentality, you love Dave math and we can be friends. It's cool, like we have we have parallels, like we both have things that we love. We both have we both saw

them in an abandoned airfield in Atlantic City. Good times, love it, Dailey Runner dot com. I'm not going to read this the way it was written because it talked about like making fantasy great again, and like it's not really read for me, but I'm gonna tell you that everybody Collins, which was shocking. I feel like he did not read this before. And so basically when I heard Corey read it this morning, I was like, you know what, I'm not gonna read this anymore. I'll tell you this.

Collin Drew over at Daily Rudder dot com. He used the optimizer and the optimizer as a guy's on court Ander friends kept saying. I was saying, you should use Aaron Rodgers, like Aaron Rodgers to play. We talked about this a lot mvs. They'll play. Colin was smart and all spent about to Adams and because Davante Adams whenever he plays a Frank said a few moments ago, he's awesome. What did that win? Colin drew seventy two thousand dollars.

We could have won seventies two thousand dollars, Like Cory said, this line, like this lineup. The only thing that's crazy about it is Austin Hooper. Everything else that's not crazy because you, sir, in our league, you punch his height end And he went to that game and he went with advanced McDonald and you could have went. I was close Austin Hooper when I was looking at ranking this week, Austin Hooper at the top, and I was like, man,

this idiot burned me last week. I'm not going back to the well and you're not supposed to do that. Austin Hooper was doable the entire lineup. And I know we said this a lot when we look like the million dollar winners, the Taylor Gabriel Mitch Drobisky stack last week. That was not reasonable. I would have never done this, but look what Colin did. Aaron Rodgers, Davante Adams, James Conner, t J yelled in pays. Penny Golladay had a big game. He's been he's been under price for DFS weekend and

week out. Christian McCaffrey, I just told you I had in my line up, so that wasn't crazy. The Cincinnati Bengals defense has been good for fantasy this year. They haven't been great overall, but it's Miami fine. Yeah. Against Ryan Tannehill, they got Vante's perfect back this week. The one hit was Austin Hooper. And I know you brought this up on Carton Friends. To getting Aaron Rodgers at like two percent ownership, that's just that's where it is

Aaron Rodgers, Davante Adams, both under three percent owned. That's where you win. It's Aaron Roondrews New Wendy Adams. Anyway, he won seventy two grand. And when you go to Daily Roder dot com and you've used the promo code F and T s Y, you get a chance to take part in the DFS winnings. They also have a sports betting to have. They have an optimizer for that. I know Frank uses that a lot um and and it's great. So Daily Roder dot com your sports betting needs,

your DFS needs is all right there. Use the promo code F and C s Y. Daily Roder dot com the industry website where millionaires are made. And so were thousand areas because coll Andrew seventies two thousand dollars this weekend. And that's not some some random person that we don't know. That's not somebody that's like he's a friend. He's in the Daily Roado like community, like he's right there in the middle of everything. Talked. I talked to Colindrey every day.

So what I like, I'm not gonna ask me to donate some money for me? Yes, yes, I am yeah, I mean you have a wedding coming up. I do you should help you? I don't present with me, nice, I don't even ask me that much. Just something you want coming up too. Yeah, I'm not really it's coming eventually. Yeah, I'm probably not gonna book it on your birthday either. I'm just gonna keep hammering that point home because you

booked your weddings on my birthday. It's gonna you didn't even know that it was my birth of course did I celebrated last year? Nine? Oh? Will there be chicken nuggets? Are your wedding? Come on? How are you gonna have a wedding on my birthday and not have chicken nuggets?

It's not like a Sorry speaking of the daily Roda tools, by the way, the betting tools, I know that um day brings this up a lot, and it's not just like alright, we're making this up like you know, we're just like pimping the product like they're over under system was like spot on everything that I was looking at Friday night. You know, Friday, I go into Hoboken. I placed my my bets um because obviously you have to be in Jersey geographically on the app to to to

place your bets. So I went in and I'm looking at all of like the over undertools for the betting service on Daily Rhodo. They're just hammering unders the Dolphins and Bengals under the Vikings and Eagles under both of those hit like like it was just it was spot on, So like I'm just gonna continue to harp on that actually have an interesting betting story. Greg I texted, I apologize, just breaking news here Austin's very and Jenkins we own

out for the years are after the year. Is it part of that like abdominal core muscle injury problem that he said he is eligible to return? That's why I guess that's what it is. Corey Grant also goes in, I r continue your story. I apologize. So Friday night, I have a buddy of mine that I usually text my bets too, and then we talk about it, and

you know he's gonna place his own bet kind of thing. Um, and I thought this was really interesting, right because waiting till the last minute, how you can see game totals drop. Greg I got the Steelers at minus two and a half and over fifty eight. Obviously the score was so it was fifty eight, so it's a push. But my buddy saw that. He was like, all right, so you're all in on the Steelers. So he goes Sunday morning, He's like, I'm gonna drop this amount of money. I'm

gonna parlay it the Steelers and the over. And he waited until Sunday morning when everybody was hammering the under, and he got the game total at seven. So he got the Steelers minus two and a half and the and the Steelers, um the Steelers and Falcons over a fifty seven, par laid it and hit it, and I got the Steelers at fifty eight on Friday night? How how about them apples? Greg? That's awesome? Man. You know

a movie that's from Okay? Would you like to tell me good rul hunting for very good things about this? You would hate it? Really the Yeah, there's nothing good that you would like about it? Really? Yeah. I don't know. I like does I have like a strong message or meaning or anything, so I could. I like movies like that. I like movies that make you think, do you yes? I do? I never do that about you. I like mind blank movies. I love those. I wouldn't say it

to mind Blake. No, I understand that, but I like movies that make you think, yeah, it's a very I don't like Transformers movies. Were like, it's just a bunch of explosis. Michael Bass that you're a big Morvel guy, so I thought you would like that stuff. I like Morvel because, like I grew up obviously watching a lot of the cartoons and stuff, so like I have an interest in that, like dating back to my childhood. But even though I'm like, I haven't seen a lot of them,

Like I haven't seen any of the thor movies. I haven't seen the latest Avengers movie, so like there's a lot that I haven't seen a single Captain American movie. Like you think I'm big on superheroes, but I'm just like, I don't really care about these movies all that much because it's just like action. There's like no substance involved. I feel the same way. I didn't realize you like good movies. That's great. Watch the movie Mother, It's very interesting.

Darren Aronovski, you're my favorite direct Yes, Darren Aronowski and Jennifer Lawrence. Yes, weird movie. I read very weird. Weird movie. I'm big on Aeronovski and Jennifer Lawrence. I like her work. I like his work. Black Swan was a great movie too. Black was awesome, and the Wrestler was good. I gotta watch the Wrestler. I haven't seen it. You've never seen the Restlers wrestling fan, and you're an Aeronosky to watch it's weird. Life of Pie. No, that's that. It is

just Pie, just Pie, the movie Pie. No, that's that's a different movie. It's not Aeronovski though. Okay, my mother and wife, Leslie, Leslie, lunch, Leslie and Karen Hi, Dudy. That's Karen Hi, Karen. Alright, So let's get into these windows closed now, yes, all right? So I mentioned two touchdowns scores and Frank's like, not the sly person. We were thinking, you know, we're not talking abut the same,

which is great. But there are a lot of two touchdown scores that went in the first round of your draft. There were we story with an Tonio Brown the first receiver off the board, and Antonio Brown not involved early and Judy actually hasn't run a fantasy teams Like what I don't understand, Like, this guy is a bad pick. He's number five. Overall, I clearly screwed up. She's not satis latter, not feeling that way anymore. Yeah, look at his targets share in this game, thirteen targets of twenty

seven passing attempts. So I think we're back to what we expected out of Antonio Brown. I don't know if it took you know, him throwing fits or talking a big band or whatever they did before the game, but thirteen targets out of twenty seven past tempts. That's nearly a fifty percent target share in this game yesterday. Again, his catching efficiency has not been good this year by any means. He only caught six of thirteen targets in

this game, but over a hundred yards two touchdowns. Uh. And you know we mentioned it's only a matter of time for players as talented. I don't know that you ever could have really bought that low on Antonio Brown just because of his name value. And I think we said it last week about the next player that we're about to talk about. But again, I don't know how low you could have bought Odell Beckham because of his

name value. As you know, I traded Beckham away this past week for Jervis Landry, John Brown, Um and Devin Fudges so great. Now it feels terrible because I would have war with Odell Beckham. And now I told you that one of these weeks like it was gonna come, like, yeah, maybe wait until Odell Beckham has that game and then trade him. Don't because I don't think I sold him low and I thought he didn't like he was fine. You were starting garbage wide receivers outside of Antonio Brown

and Odell Beckham, so you needed the depth. But it's funny. But you know what's funny is that I get the Brown. I would have gotten the Brown and Beckham break out the same week, and the flexes I would have wound up starting this week. Ryan granted at eight point eight points I didn't have I didn't get mvs and Christian Kirk gosh, yeah, I want hit Wonder. So it would have been unlucky. But Beckham throws the touchdown. UM really look good. Yesterday they were trying to take more chances

down the field. Calls out the team. That was what the entire story was before, after and during the game. Um, and listen, they listened to him. They did the ball downfield yeah, they did, and he did exact and he and he did and he threw the ball down the field. Yes, of course, you know what's awesome, man. The joke today, the running joke is, oh, they let their best quarterback throw the ball down the field Beckham to say, Kwon Barkley. That was a really really awesome play, Like there's no

way around that. But again, targets share in this game. They threw a ball thirty six times Greg fourteen of those going to Odell Beckham. He absolutely dominated the target. Again, you want to see better efficiency, but a beautiful touchdown passed from Eli Manning dropped it right in his bread basket for that touchdown. Eight receptions thirty one yards a touchdown also added that passing touchdown. So obviously the window

to Bilo on Odell Beckham has closed. Um, and I think you just kind of right it out like I'm not trying to sell him just based on this matchup either. No, of course not. By the way. With Antonio Brown, that deca just treating an awesome stat Adam. Antonio Brown is tied with Adam Feeling for the most targets in the NFL six Nobody else is born this nobody else is sixty Antonio around. The targets of the touchdown are coming. Lad has won one less touchdown than calgar Ridley, who

has a motion six. Adam Dealing though man unbelievable. Man started a season five straight games. Never been done. He's been great, He's awesome. He's been awesome. And for those you remember was the flex drift where he was just dropping and dropping and dropping. I was just like, what's going on? He went in the fourth round. That was a standard league. Like the narrative was Adam feeling much better in PPR. Stefanding is gonna score the touchdowns, but

I'm feeling it's throws you every single play. I don't care what kind of leagus you're playing in. Absolutely he's awesome. Now the other and we'll sign off YouTube right now, um, and then we'll talk about the last player that scored two touchdowns yesterday, a first round pick that was great. But we're signing off YouTube. The Fantasy Football Frenzy comes your way next. Corey Parson, Chris Venture and Jim Day will have you covered. UM, so stick around from that,

subscribe to the podcast. Like us on iTunes, give us five stars. We appreciate it. David Johnson, Frankie two touchdowns yesterday, one early, one in garbage time. Uh, DJ getting the end one twice, that's what we needed. Yeah, eight team rushes for fifty five yards and two touchdowns. The efficiency, I don't know the it's ever going to be there for the Cardinals. Sorry, I have a basketball note. You're gonna be upset in the middle of David Johnson. It's important.

You're gonna be upset. Not next related Victor Ladvo Murray about him torn a c l Really yeah, wow? In lost Lonnie Walker too? How long? How long is Lonnie Walker out for? Four to six? Anything? Going to say? Maybe not that much? Like four for sure. I don't even know who the next man? You know who I read? I read it today. Um, I want to see James is his last last name, Darwin James. That's not I can't be right. There's a roster resource for basketball. That's

not right. I know. This helps a lot for those people who are drafting this week and drafting over the weekend. Obviously, next weekend is a big fantasy basketball draft weekend. The martyro the Marta Rosen. The ball is going to run through him. I think we see a career high in terms of assists out of him. And I felt that way even with the john S Murray because Jon Murray is not a guy who's going to rack up a lot assists, Like the offense is not going to run

through him. And I looked through box scores every day even throughout the preseason greg and I saw Demartin Rosen had like five or six assists the other day and I realized, I'm like, he's gonna have a career year in terms of assists, Like de Martin Rosen is gonna average like five assists a game per year. By the way, next man up, Patty Mills and den Derek White. I was the guy I was trying to think of Derek White.

Who was that guy? Derek White is for friend Forbes they have as well for our first round pick from Colorado. This offense is just gonna run through to Martin Rosen, and it was gonna do that anyway. You don't given David Johnson Newt David Johnson, so he had eighteen of the team's UH nineteen running back carries in this game. Back to back games with twenty plus touches. I worry about the efficiency. I don't know that it's going to

be there all year long. Defenses don't really have to respect Josh Rosen all that much unless he continues to throw these long touchdowns to guys like Christian Kirk. But I don't know the efficiency is gonna be there. At the same time, I don't know that you can try and sell high on David Johnson, Greg, because who are you selling him for? You continuously talk about there's no running backs out there. So if you want to try and sell David Johnson, like who are you gonna ask

for in return? Try and get like a Sony Michelle or something like that. Maybe you trust the Patriots offense a little bit more. But surprise, surprise, you know, the Patriots are in contact with Mike Gillisi Greg exactly what I said was going to happen to So I'm not saying that he's definitely going to come in and make like have an impact on Sony Michelle's workload or anything. But I just don't know, like, if you want to treat David Johnson high right now, like who are you

treating him for? Who's another running back that's consistently getting twenty plus touches and it's gonna dominate work in the red zone. There's not many. You can probably count them on like your two hands. Just the name that came up with it was a guy like Carlo's Hide. But like you do that, is it that much different. It's not like Carlos Hide is not running efficiently either at all.

And you know, I know they didn't do what they said they were going to do, but like at some point Nick chob was probably gonna get more work at some point. Not all right, Tonight's game Washington, and I know that Corey Parson all over the Washington football team tonight. Um, as you look at the total currently believe this the Saints are six point favorites over understands at fifty two.

What are you thinking? My initial reaction is I don't really want to touch the over under because I think we're still in the process of like figuring out who the New Orleans Saints are. Their defense looked very bad at times this year. They looked all right against Cleveland Browns when they were home a couple of weeks ago, and then they looked okay last week against the Giants. Now the Giants went out this week and put up thirty one points. I believe it was on the Panthers.

So was it the Giants is having an inept game, which they're you know, definitely, it's definitely possible for that to happen. Or has the Saints defense turned a corner. Don't really know how many points are going to score be scored in this game, but I will tell you I will. I'm all over Washington as well. They're coming off a bye. They've had, you know, two weeks to game plan for the New Orleans Saints now Alvin Kamara and Mitle Thomas. I take the points with Washington. I

think they're in playing them any line too. I like Washington with the points. I don't like it with the Monday line. I'll think the under in this one that I have fifty two points for Frank Stamp. I'm Greg Susman will do it. No, only Gonnamorrow, we hope
