Enjoy the show and thanks so much for listening. Yeah, well, good bye, ex spun bro st Francis. Ladies and gentlemen, your damn with that. We want to be inside of

Studio thirty four. This is the BFFs. Here's Frank Stamford. I am Greg Susman. Week seven upon us and all day to day we'll break it down for you. What's happening, Frankie, Greggy, Happy Friday too. Yeah, lots to talk about today, obviously, big game last night between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Verbroncos. If you listen to me earlier in the week, I told you the Chiefs were a good defensive stream.

Hell of call about you. You know, I get one right every now and then, every now and then, every now and then, you know, But I think there's probably bigger news to discuss from last night's game. Greg agreed. The Rangers lost four to two last night at the Credential Center. It was it was a fun game. Yeah, our Yankees, let's say they're about to bow out of the competition. It's not looking good man, It's a badass

sports for me. Great night hanging out and buddy Y though, went to the Rangers game with cold buddies of mine. He was like, dude, I was like, obviously I wanted fraid to be it is what he said, because obviously I wasn't fraid to be here like hanging out with Frank. But it was cool that you brought people that are like actually hockey fans. Obviously, like you don't care, and Frank doesn't care. I probably would have just been watching baseball while I was there. I said a bar like

watching baseball for like, you know, half the second period. Um, But it was also like we had a really really fun time. Um. It was cool seeing like Ey in public transportation. He was like because like we were like squashing down on they had a train to go to Newark, right, and he was just like so congested. We sat down. He calls his wife's like, you're not gonna believe what we just did we just like, I don't know how these guys do it. I'm like, dude, like you're a

fresh and wrestler. Man. It was awesome and I'll know with him all night. Came back to the city, went to a bar to watch the Yankee game and after the eighth and he's like, I am exhausted, like I I gotta go. I was like, you, you're tapping it before me. True, it was awesome, really fun time. Yeah, so happy that happened for you, Greggy. Good times. They're hanging out with a good buddy e Y in the neighborhood. But yeah, the Chiefs handled their business last night. Is

not an indulgement right now. I don't know what do you what else do you want me to say? Let's go range Rangers lost, but no seriousness. We were sitting there watching this game and as a guy is like, I think Patrick Mahomes just got hurt. And next thing, you know, where every we're trying to get up on Twitter. Not good service, Potential center just like bizarre. They don't have like free WiFi, which is crazy, and we all

eventually get service. We're on Twitter and we find out that Patrick Mahomes dislocates his kneecalf his Matela and we're like this, this is bad, not good. The okay news today that comes out is like, hey, the ligament damage, everything's all right. It kind of basically needs the heel. No surgery required. He should be back in a matter of weeks, which is like, wow, sigh of relief. I saw Andy read gott a ton of crap for calling that play, which to me was I don't understand why

any ready deserved that crap. Like Patrick Mahomes running for his life against von Miller. He could fall forward for you know, a yard right like that made no sense to me, um that any of you got killed for that. Thankfully, for the NFL, Mahomes should be back in a month or so, which is great news. Um. And as you said, the Chief's able to dominate Denver, dominate Joe Flacco and

get a big victory last night. Yea, the words of Adam Schefter, this turned out to be the best case scenario for Patrick Mahomes and they're expecting him to miss about three weeks. If you are a Patrick Mahomes owner in a single quarterback league, like Grig Susman and myself are you're already looking forward to next week if you could still make pickups. We just added Jared Golf He's going up against the Bengals next week. Matt Stafford going

up against the Giants. Those are two quarterbacks that are available now if you want to kind of look ahead to week eight. If you are a Patrick Mahomes owner in a one quarterback league, if you're playing the Super Flux and Patrick Mahomes, you're screwed. I'm sorry, unless you unless you have, unless you have a good backup quarterback, or yeah, she'll be picking up Matt Moore. But yeah, it's it's obviously it was devastating news last night for

Patrick Mahomes. I'm happy it was the best case scenario. Obviously, we never wanted him to get hurt in the first place, but with that offensive line, I mean, he's not healthy already coming into this game. The Chiefs handled their business regardless Tyreek Hill long touchdown dime of a throw from Matt more So, that was good to see that. You know, even if Matt Moore has to step in for two or three games, that he can make the throws necessary.

Obviously he's not gonna make the same throws that Patrick Mahomes does. But just get the ball in the hands of your playmakers. Keep targeting Tyreek Hill, keep targeting Travis Kelsey, and that'll be fine for fantasy football. Obviously. From a running back perspective, on the Kansas City Chiefs, Lashaw McCoy was once again the best running back on the team. He had twelve carries. Damie Williams had nine for seven carries. Do you have a zero point eight yards per carry

Damian Williams? Last night? I have no idea why people were ranking Damian Williams over the Shawn McCoy. I have no idea what I was gonna say. Everybody was doing it, and I'm like, what am I missing? You and Florida go back and forth like what, I don't get it. Why were people hide on Damian Williams? What did they see? Because I don't. I don't get it, And last night

you were proven correct. Yeah. The only thing that I was thinking was maybe I missed a quote brought the uh you know, brought the week saying that they were gonna give Damian Williams more work. But la Shaw McCoy was the one that was used more last week and I figured that would carry over and that's exactly what happened. He averaged over five yards were carried here. The Denver Broncos just completely crap the bed here. Courtland Sutton continues to get it done. So that's awesome. And if you

started Royce Freeman, at least he scored a touchdown. He had four receptions as well. But Courtland Sutton awesome. I tweeted this out earlier. He's on pace for over yards. He's been extremely consistent. The targets are still there. I do have concern starts. When did they go to Drew Lock because I think it's going to happen as soon as he was back and healthy and cruise that he could play. That's when they go to take a break. We're done with Thursday night up to Sunday next. I

games for you. This Sunday, Week seven and they starts doing the Atlanta Falcons Los Angeles Rams. Two teams are really right now. Rams can't buy a win North Cara can Atlanta Dan Quinn his s cannot get any hotter at the moment. The Rams definitely need a big offensive performance and that's what you go to Atlanta four. Do you get a big offensive performance? Atlanta's defense can't stop seemingly anything right now. Do you need to pick me

up game from Jared Goff, Well, you have it, Atlanta. Well, their defense has been so pitiful that that rise at it your really good fantasy season and that's made Austin Hooper have a fantastic fantasy season as well. Frank. With the Rams and Falcons playing the Sunday, how do you see this one checking out? Start everybody? Greg No, It's seriously fifty four and a half point total in this game right now is the highest on the Week seven slate. I think this should be a get right Spy four.

Jared Golf in the Los Angeles Rams offense. If it doesn't, then maybe we're not streaming Jared Golf next week against the Cincinnati Bengals, because if you can't get it done against this Atlanta Falcons defense right now, then you're just not going to get it done at all. It's inside of the dome as well, so we should see a lot of offense on both sides here. Jared Golf only through for seventy eight yards last week. The Rams offense total had a hundred and fifty seven yards last week

against the San Francisco forty niners. But again, this should be a get right spot. The Atlanta Falcons thirty one and past defense div a way so far this season. So I have Cooper Cup ranked inside of my top three wide receivers this week. Greg love him for DFS as well, like Jared gofferd DFS. You know other people who might have been scared off of him. I'm going right back to that. Well. I have Robert Woods and Brandon Cook's all ranked inside of my top twenty. There

should be points. Theoretically, Todd Gurley looks like he's going to be good to go. I'd imagine if you own Todd Gurley, you don't really have an option better than him. I think he's a solid RB two. I think he's in that realm of a top fifteen, top eighteen running back this week. On the other side, it's gonna be interesting to see if j Jalen Ramsey actually suits up for this one. I think he's gonna be good to go. He's been practicing full of this back injury all of

a sudden gone. Yeah, he never was dealing with a back injury. He didn't want to play for the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's gonna make life difficult for Julio Jones. But Julio Jones, if you own him again, you're still starting him greg. This is why I like Calvin Ridley a lot. This week. He has had at least six targets in every game but one. He scored a touchdown in back to back weeks.

I have Calvin Ridley as the top twenty wide receiver because if Jalen Ramsey makes life difficult for Julio Jones and we see points getting traded back and forth, the Falcons are going to have to throw the ball to somebody. I think that somebody will be Calvin Ridley. I think that somebody will be Austin Hooper and if you're really desperate, I think Mohammed's new is in the mix as well. DeVonta Freeman. Based on the way he's being used in the past game, Greg has to be trusted as a

low nd RB two. They can't run the ball efficiently. Their offensive line is extremely banged up. But I think based on the way he's being targeted, you have to start DeVonta Freeman as as a low n RB two right now, you start Girl or Freeman now that you probably have that choice, but I just wan don't know who you have ranked Tire. I have girly ranked tire Docot Brown is questionable this week? Is that sure? Malcolm Brown is questionable. I didn't gonna know that he's been

able to practice. But regardless, you know, Darryl Henderson probably gets a few touches this game, you know, six to eight, maybe up to ten even, but I think you know, when they get down near the go line, we're still gonna see a lot of Todd Girley. All Right, Todd gurl gonna get all the the run that he can handle, especially around the goal line. This week Rams and a good bounce back spot here against the Atlanta Falcons. We're waiting news Frank on Alban Camaro, who has not practiced

all week. We'll see if he gets a practice in. Today. New Orleans is facing Chicago, and last week, I know we sat here and debated as Malcolm Brown, I think it wasn't a good matchup against San Francisco, but we ultimately chose Malcolm Brown over Javonte Freeman because well, we're dumb. We're dumb, exactly. Let's call it for what it is. So this week, Latavius Murray not a great matchup against Chicago Bears. But if he starts and Albu Camaro doesn't play,

he's going to be the sole guy. People are going to have to make the choice between Otavias Murray and some other options like we are, for instance, right Ladavis Murray over a guy like Frank Gore or James White. That's a decision we are going to have. How do you what would you do in a matchup that's not ideal? And I think he's gonna be right in that mix.

I think the running backs you mentioned are a good area for Latavius Murray to vault up to If Alvin Kamaro was not to play in this game, I think he would be a high high end flex option. We just saw before the bye the Chicago Bears got shredded by Josh Jacobs. He ran for a season high, you know, a hundred and twenty six yards in that game. And Greg, let's not forget they lost a Chem Hicks, who was one of their best you know, arguably their best defensive lineman,

their best defensive tackle. He is a big piece of them stopping the run. So if Alvin Kamara were ruled out in this game, I think Latavius Murray is a high end RB three, high end flex option, low end RB two because again, while the Bears are still gonna be very good against the run, you know, losing a Chem Hicks is obviously a big loss for them. The total in this game is thirty eight and a half.

If you have Michael Thomas, obviously you're using him. I don't want to use Teddy Bridgewater anywhere outside of super flex leagues, to be honest, I don't love this game much from a fantasy perspective. David Montgomery, it's gonna be really hard for him to run against the Saints defense. They've been really good against stopping running backs going back to last year. That's carried over so far this season. And they can't run block right now. They're thirty second

in the league run blocking according to Football Outsiders. Their offensive line just hasn't done enough. I know they lost Kyle Long. He's on I R as well Gray, So I really don't love this game. I think David Montgomery is a middling RB three flex option. I would use Frank Gore over him. I would use the Chargers running backs over him as well. I just don't think this is a good spot. And if Drabinsky is the quarterback,

you can't really love the wide receivers either. I mean, Allen Robinson had a two touchdown game before the bye, but he's gonna see Marshawn Lattimore, who has stepped up once again and is looking like one of the best cornerbacks in the league. So Alan Robinson, while you know he's seen a large majority of the targets for the Chicago Bears, I have question marks about Trabinsky, and I have question marks about him going up against Lattimore. He's

more of a RB three for me. Greg Wide receiver three for me, and not even high end wide receiver three for that fair enough, and I go back to this Latavia's Murray things. That's what stands out to me here in this game. You're right with the Bears. I don't want to have to start on the running game with Kyda Long and this Chicago Bears team beat up Long being out. Obviously, Alan Robinson has been good. Um Marshawn Lattimore though, as you said, he's been one of

the best quarterbacks in the NFL. One on one of the season. I'm waiting word. I hope we get it during our program. In regards to Alvin Camaris status, yeah, we shall see you again. Latavius Murray would be a volume play here, probably fifteen to twenty touches. They've been signing a bunch of running backs as well. To me, that doesn't bode well for Alvin Kamara. Probably not Zack Center of course, the one that they signed earlier this week. Moving on to our next game, Houston Texans are in

Indianapolis here this week. Shawn Watson get an m v P push at this moment as yeah, I know you're checking the head. Yes, yes, I have a twenty five dollar wager on Deshaun Watson to win the MVP on so I pay out over six hundred bucks. Fanstastic. Let's go, Let's go Texans, Let's go. Let's go there in Indianapolis, basing Jacobe Brissette and the Indianapolis Colts. Colts coming off there by, I believe Houston coming off a huge win against the Kansas c ch the Texans gay rolling on

the Cults, refreshed after the bye week. I think this is gonna be a close game. The spread says so as well. Right now, the Colts are down to a one point favorite at forty seven point total in this game, and I really like the running backs on both sides here. I have hard Carlos Hide ranked as a top twenty

four running back this week. I think he's an RB two coming off a game where he just had twenty six carries a hundred and sixteen rushing yards, and going up against the Indianapolis Colts went and run defense DV a way so far this season, so Carlos hides in a good spot. Obviously, DeAndre Hopkins has not given you what you've expected this year, but you still have to continue to start him. Will Fuller, I am dropping down tremendously right now. To me, he's in that similar conversation

as an Alan Robinson. I think he's a solid wide receiver three. He's not the top twenty four wide receiver he has been each of the past two weeks. Because Kenny Stills is going to play in this game, and we've seen that in games when Kenny Stills plays, Will Fuller does not see the same target share. He does not see as many targets down the field. So I do have some concern over will Fuller. He is not the must art that he has been the past couple

of weeks. On the also, Darren felt when it comes to Darren Fells, if you are really desperate at the tight end position, I like him as a low end tight end one. The Colts are giving up the third most fantasy points to opposing tight end so far this season. On the other side, I mentioned I like the running backs in this game. I think Marlon Max should be able to have some success. I think he's a high end RB two. Again, I think it's a close game, and we saw the Colts know what their recipe is

in order to win games. In that game, against the Kansas City Chiefs before the by Marlon Mack twenty nine carries has a monster game. I think that they're going to feed him a lot in this game. But if they end up getting into a shootout, Greg, we have said this for a long time now. T Y Hilton owns the Houston Texans and he should be able to own them here. Their past defense has not been great so far this season, they have older corners. I don't know that they'll be able to keep up with t

Y Hilton. I think he's in a really good spot. He's a high end wide receiver to for me this week. Outside of him, I think you can stream Brissette. I think he's a cheap DFS play. But any other weapons here, Like I don't feel good about the Zach Pascals, any of the other wide receivers, you know, the Dion Kanes. We've wanted these wide receivers to step up. It hasn't

happened again. I think they really want to run the football, and even with the tight ends you know, Greg, with t Y Hilton back, it's really hard to choose between an Eric Ebron versus Jack Doyle. I have a few other tight ends I'd rather stream. We'll get to that a little bit later on. Darren Fells is one of those Darren Fells. So we're doing seven. A lot of praying with the tight End'll tell you all I'm praying for next. I want to be the next Daily Fantasy millionaire.

I'm optimized her if you were playing daily Fantasy hockey without using Daily rodo you're doing it wrong into the promo code action for a

tempercent discounts. Promo code action right ten percent discount Daily Order dot Com for millionaires are made right, Yes, you have played the DFS using Daily Order dot Com last night when I was came, Yeah, why not right stack a bunch of Rangers and Devils. Was it a high scoring game? Yeah, that's a decent amount of goals win on the number. Pretty entertaining. Yeah, it was, you know what it was? Had? It was really tense, right, Rangers

versus Devil's. It was awesome. Man. It's about his fa as my hockey knowledge ghost knowing the names of the team so well. The Devil's in the first overall pick this past year. They have the Jack Hughes be Jackie. Everyone loves Jack and the the Rangers drag the second overall pick in the draft and they drive the Capo CaCO. So these guys will be forever linked linked to each other. Both are like prodigies. Do they play? Are the first team players? Are? Right? All right? Yeah, so that's where

I was last night. All right. It talks about um praying for your China end situation this week, and there's like only seven tight ends in the NFL that are actually good at fantasy football this week. I'm hoping one of those guys is Dawson Knocks come over to the dark side. Greggy. Frank's been talking about Dawson Knox and Duke Williams for weeks now. I've been telling him, you could love them all you want, but Bills don't love them,

and then they're not very good. And yeah, I found myself losing will Disley and being in a tough spot where I have to start also Knox this week against Miami Dolphins, Bills are all in play. As long as John Brown plays, Gorge Josh Allen coming off of bye, should be in a good spot Bills in Miami. Ryan Fitzpatrick, it's a start for Miami, revenge game for Ryan fits Magic. It is Buffalo Bills week. Nobody circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills. I'm sure Gamemorency will be happy to

hear that all Buffalo Bills are in play this week. Legitimately, Frank Gora have as a top twenty four running back low n RB two for me. He's averaging four point four yards per carry a couple of weeks ago, we saw him run for over a hundred yards against New England Patriots. The Buffalo Bills are the number one run blocking team in the NFL right now according to Football Outsiders. I think Devin Singletary is in play as a flex option as well. John Brown inside my top twenty four.

I understand he's dealing with I believe it's a groin injury, but he has been practicing on a limited basis and I think that he's gonna be good to go as well. Top twenty four wide receiver for me, Cope Beasley inside my top thirty six. He's a wide receiver three. I think we see the safety out of Beasley again. If you need a bye week replacement, I think he's a pretty safe bet for five, for fifty, five for sixty. Maybe he even gets in the end zone against the

Miami Dolphins as well. You mentioned Dawson Knox greg coming off a season high five targets before the bye week, and the Dolphins are allowing the eleventh most fantasy points to opposing tight ends. And of course we love the Buffalo Bills defense, but they are extremely expensive in dfs this week, so I don't really know how you're gonna work them in, unless, of course, you pick them up in a season long league. Uh. That is it's good

for you, obviously you're getting him in there. But outside of that, on the Miami Dolphins side of things, Greg, anything, I know, you know we were not we I was riding the Dolphins wide receivers last week. Vonte Parker scored a touchdown, never in doubt, but honestly, it wasn't a great game for either one of those guys. I don't want to go back to the well. The Buffalo Bills secondary is you know, one of, if not the best, in the league. So I don't want to use the

Miami Dolphins wide receivers. Maybe Kenyan Drake is a low end flex option, but only if I'm really desperate. I don't want any Buffalo Bills in there. Greg, Miami Dolphins are. I'm not starting any Miami Dolphins this week. You know how I feel up Preston Williams, you know how I feel about DeVante Parker. I'm not doing it at all here this week. For me. As I said, Rana Dawson knocks in the league right now, my wide receivers inside my top twelve you's a tight end stream this week.

Let's go hopefully that guys the thing going vote, Frank, I hope so, at least for one week and then maybe the next time they play the Dolphins in five weeks from now. Greg, we'll take it. New York and Arizona tip off or kickoff from MetLife Stadium around one pm Eastern Time on Sunday. Two defenses that are bad. Arizona is getting better though, because Patrick Peterson officially back

in the lineup. Startling Shepherd is not for the Giants, however, see Kwon Barkley and Evan Ingram are not even listed on the final injury report. These guys are good to go on Sunday should be a high scoring affair between the Cardinals and the Giants. Looking forward to this one. Yeah, one of the highest point totals of the week, fifty point five right now. But between the Giants and the Arizona Cardinals. Let's start with the Giants. Obviously, you're using

se Kwon ark the long awaited return. He has had I believe ample enough time to rest here. We heard that he was trying to return for that there's a night football game against the Patriots. Ultimately, We're happy that he didn't. He gets more time to rest up. They were never gonna win that game, whether sake Kawon Barkley was playing or not. Anyway, it's a good matchup here, going up against the Arizona Cardinals. Phenomenal matchup for Evan

Ingram as well. I mean it's well documented the Cardinals allowed the most Fantasy points to opposing tight ends. They get shredded every single week. We just saw Austin Hooper go for eight receptions over a hundred yards and a touchdown last week against the Cardinals as well. Evan Ingram should be on your radar for DFS. Really good tight end week as well. For DFS, a lot of those top tier tight ends have really good matchups. Evan Ingram. You gotta pay up for him, but I think it's

going to be worth it. You mentioned Patrick Peterson's going to be back, Greg, How does that affect the New York Giants weapons here? Well, Darius Slayton, I don't think you were starting him anyway, but he is likely the one that's gonna be matched up with Patrick Peterson. Peterson does not travel into the slot. That's where Golden Tape plays. I like Golden Tape this week. I think he's a low win wide receiver too. He's gonna be matched up against Fremaine Brock. We saw him have a big game

last time out against the New England Patriots. If we're expecting points to be scored on both sides, I think Golden Tate gets involved as well on the other side. Greg Arizona Cardinals David Johnson returned to practice yesterday. He's been dealing with a bunch of different injuries. Last week he was dealing with some stuff. This week he had the ankle, but he did return to practice. Looks like

he's going to be good to go as well. Obviously, we like David Johnson has a top five running back this week based on the way that he's being used in the pass game. He's not really running well, he's not running efficiently, but he's being targeted in the red zone. Has a nice little rapport with Kyler Murray. Larry Fitzgerald. I think a he's let us down man, you know,

Like I want to rank Larry Figerald lower. But it's such a good matchup going up against the New York Giants, and I think the Cardinals want to air it out a little bit against the secondary. I don't expect Christian Kirk to be back for this game, and they're gonna have to throw the ball to somebody. I think that somebody's going to be Larry Fitzgerald, So I still have him as a high end wide receiver to Kyler Murray.

I have him as the top five quarterback this week, Greig, and I think Daniel Jones is right on that border of a low n QB one, you know, top twelve, top fourteen quarterback. I think I think Daniel Jones very much in the mix this week Kyler Murray as well. How about a DFS stack little Daniel Jones and Evan Ingram. Let's say this whole game, man, Yeah, I'll put that

one out there. Why not. Absolutely. I'm trying to figure out because you know, in one of my leagues, I just had the worst starting wide receivers you've ever heard. Trying to figure out who I could potentially put in instead of these shrucks that I have in right now, and that's kind of led me to Green May in Oakland, where there is a lot of players missing in this game. For Green Bay, Davante Adams has already been ruled out Marquess Vallance Scantling was asked today, hey, is he your

ankle and your need is bothering me? He goes. Both genuinely got me through last week. I don't know if I can go this week. Dono Allison is battling everything. The rams to a concussion question yet right, so they might be with out the top three options on offense screen day, which means we talked a lot about the lizard here this week. Jake Kuberro's gonna get an opportunity to start up four Green Bay and then for Oakland. Isn't Tyro Williams still out too? I don't think that

he's gonna go in this game. So we're talking about the top four wide receivers in this game, combined with Davantae Adams, Ronimo Allison, Marcus Valdiscantling, and Tyra Williams all potentially out in this game, and it looks like a trending that way. Greg so Um desperate for a wide receiver, Frank, how would you rank the guy's left over in this game? Somebody's gonna catch bass. I think the only one that

I really think is viable is Alan Lazard. We heard in the post game last week that Aaron Rodgers says that he's been you know, working his tail off and practice, and you know, Aaron Rodgers has noticed him and he's been lobbying for Alan Lazard to get some playing time here. Uh. You know, he's six ft three, he's a bigger wide receiver.

We saw that touchdown that he called last week where the defender was basically right on top of him, still came down and earned some trust there from Aaron Rodgers. So I think Alan Lazard is in play as a wide receiver three and he's super cheap in DFS. Saw him on Fandel earlier today Ford, so I think he will be in play there. The way that you want to attract attack the Oakland Raiders is through the air. Greg they are they are twenty six and past defense DV away, so the way to attack them is is

through the air. Um and Jimmy Graham is even banged up as well, so I think we see some targets here for Anlazar. I know a lot of people have been talking about Kumarro for a while now, but it was Lazard who was the one who actually showed up last week. On the Oakland Raiders side of things, it's hunter renfro Za. Jones had a week to get himself caught up to speed, was traded there throughout the bye week. I don't really want to get involved with any of

the Raiders. I don't want to get involved with any of the Oakland Raiders options. I think Ryan Grant is now on the Packers on the Raiders earlier this year, so hashtag revenge game for Ryan Grant. I don't really want to fool around with that. I saw that Darren Waller popped up limited practice the past couple of days. Should be good to go, and I expect a lot of targets here for Darren Waller again because who else are they gonna throw the ball too? For Oakland. I

love Josh Jacobs in this game. I saw a tweet earlier on today. The Raiders are averaging a league best six yards per carry versus eight plus men in the box. The Packers are allowing a league worst five point nine two yards per carry with eight men eight plus men in the box, and I think John Gruden and the Raiders realized before the bye that they can ride Josh

Jacobs two victories. He is that good. Saw a season high and carries in that game twenty six carries season high and rushing yards under and twenty yards, had two touchdowns. He had a season high and targets four targets three receptions. I think we are in for a big Josh Jacobs game. On the other side, Greg, I still think that Aaron Jones is a solid RV two. I think it's if I had to put a split on it, I think it's six. Aaron Jones, Jamal Williams, Jama Williams, a low

end flex option. But Greig, the Oakland Raiders have actually been good against the run this year, which you know, we're not used to saying, but they are six in the NFL and run defense DV away so far to the season. So if they can take away the run, it's gonna be a tough game for Aaron Rodgers because he doesn't really have a lot of guys to throw to. I think Aaron Rodgers is kind of in that same territory as Daniel Jones. Actually, this week I would start

Daniel Jones over Aaron Rogers. Probab absolutely better matchup. I mean, he doesn't It's a good matchup against Oakland, but he has no one to throw the ball. Agree, you can't rely on Aaron Rodgers, but I like Daniel Jones over Aaron Rodgers this week, Can you start Jamal Williams and Aaron Jones? You can, I wouldn't recommend it again. I think Jamal Williams more of a low end flex option at low and RB three. I think Aaron Jones is still gonna see six percent of the work puts him

on pace as a r B two. Latest news comes out. Al Camaro Jared Cooke both do not practice today. The New Orleans not looking good for Kamara. Not looking good for either of these players.

That's number one hundred and fifteen of

the thirty FPS teams. For me, is the differential between what they allow on defense, which is what they gain on offense. When you find teams that better plus one plus one, don't I have plus two yards per play? Most tends to be some pretty good football teams, and obviously La fayet it with some impressive debts that is most assuredly driving this number. What's live week days three or four pm Eastern on Sports Grade and TV Channel seven nights. Franks has brings up a fantastic points going

back sauce conversion. He goes, Bro, you know everyone's trying to say it is not easy, Bro, everyone knows I'm trying to sound even with me talking them up as the hottest commodity in fantasy football commodity. Frank, when did you turn it to Mike Francisca? You know what? Uh? You know what I've been saw? What did you saw? Greg? I saw? I see Stefon Diggs this week against Detroit? Oh, and you like them? No? Why is that. I don't know, man.

I think it's a tough spot. I really like Detroit in this game, to be honest, and they're like their home dogs. It's a it's a close friend. They should have beaten Gold, they should have beaten Green Bay on the road last week Monday night. And know it's a short week. Minnesota is not as good as we've seen the last couple of weeks. I think it's a good spot for the trip it so I'll give you a little sneak peak. Gregg recorded some videos last night with

CBS and I had give them my best bets. The Minnesota Vikings were one of my best bets, Gregg, I am bucking the trend. I understand that under Mike Zimmer, they are better at home, Kirk Cousins is better against non division opponents. I understand all of that. I don't see how the Detroit Lions are gonna be able to stop the run here with Dalvin Cook and Alexander Madison um just all year. I mean, the Lions just allowed a hundred and fifty one rushing yards to the combination

of Jamal Williams and Aaron Jones. And Dalvin Cook ranked as my RB one on the week. Love him for DFS as well, And I think if you're really desperate, I think Madison sneaks in as a low end flex as well, in that same range as a Jamal Williams. Greg Stefon Diggs is likely going to see Darius Slay here. And I understand that since Adam Feeland has called out Kirk Cousins, he's been phenomenally. He's throwing for over six hundred yards, he's storing for six touchdowns in each of

the past two games combined. But this is a tougher matchup here for Stefon Digg. So are of a low end wide receiver too high end wide receiver three than where we were at last week with him because he was going up against the Eagles. But ultimately, I think we see a lot of running in this game on both sides. I think they're gonna try and run with

Kirk Cousins. Is a little bit harder against the Minnesota Vikings, who have the fourth best defense according to the Run Defense DEVA numbers from Football Outsiders UM And I think, look, if you want Kenny Golladay, you're still throwing him out there. Either of the quarterbacks in this game. I don't love Stafford, I don't love Kirk Cousins. Again, I think it's a big,

big game for both of these running backs. But based on the way Kenny Golladay has played this year, he is still a high end, solid wide receiver too, regardless of matchup. Is very interesting because as you're talking like Keny Golladay and this literally just came in, Uh, a guy in my league who's, hey, would you trade Tyreek Hill? Like, all right, sure, let's let's hear what all this is going to bed Kenny Golladay and another piece? Like, what's

the other piece? What's the other piece? I don't know the other pieces? He didn't, he didn't really say that. All right, Well, I think you've you've got a foundation of a trade right there, if you are desperate for other pieces, Greg, I mean if I don't know if that's a team where you have terrible wide receivers or not. No, it's team that he is pretty good. So yeah, I mean, only only if the offer is right, Greg, Kenny Golladay and like Christian Kirk can do it. It's fair if

you need wide receiver help. I like buying on Christian Kirk right now, even if he doesn't play this week, Kenny Golladen and Bob Anderson do it also fair. I think Robby Anderson and Christian Kirk are in a similar range. I think they're gonna be high end wide receiver threes after this week, once we get past the Patriots and once Christian Kirk returns healthy. We'll find out in a

few moments. Okay, um, let's just give you ont you mentioned during the rate to me Cordy Glenn and the Cincinnati Bengals decimated Jacksonville heads there without Jalen Ramsey, who's over his back injury thankfully but now plays for the Rams. So Jacksonville and Cincinnati game. I was checking out, Frank, Yeah, I think we're gonna get a little bit of the hewing theory here as well. You know, don't have to

worry about the di traction of Jalen rams anymore. I think it might be addition by subtraction here for this Jaguars defense, a defense that gets a ton of pressure. They are fifth in the NFL, and sacks they're Ethan pressures. If you've ever seen a game with Andy Dalton where he's under pressure, then you've seen all of them. You know that he doesn't really perform well under pressure here. And the fact that the Bengals, I'll read this out

for you, Greg there without their top two cornerbacks. They're out there without two of their starting offensive lineman. Cordy Glenn was supposed to return. He will not play in this game there without two of their top pass rushers. And uh A J. Green will not play in this game either. So I love the Jacksonville Jaguars this week. I love betting on them FINUS three and a half. I understand that they're on the road, but and this Bengals team has somehow remained competitive, but I don't really

see how it's gonna happen here. I'm going back to the Minshew mustache as well. I think d J H. Tark is in play for a good game. The fact that Drake Kirkpatrick is going to miss this game g D Westbrook a little bit more banged up. Not really in a D D Westbrook this week as much as I was last week. I do like d J. Tark as a wide receiver to the and I think this is a good game for both running backs. Yes, I said it. I think it could be a solid game

for Joe Mixon as well. Both the Jaguars and the Bengals are allowing over five yards per carry right now to opposing running backs. We know that the Bengals get shredded by running backs. Leonard four Nette is going to be very chalky in DFS this week. He's a good cash game play as well. On the other side, though, if the Bengals can keep this game somewhat close, Gregg, and they can get Joe Mixon fifteen plus carries, I

think that he can take advantage of this. Yes, the offensive line is decimated, but the Jaguars are allowing the most yards per carry to opposing running backs so far this season. So if Joe Mixon was ever going to get it done, I think it would be in this matchup. Let me move on, Frank. San Francisco and Washington talk a little bit about this yesterday about Kyle Shanahan Wanning stick it to the Washington football team, and it's really tough because Bill Callahan wants to establish the run. San

Francisco says, Hey, yeah, establishing against us. Please try your back, try your darnedest, Gregg, because you know, one of the best defenses in the league against the run as well. The forty nine is allowing just three point nine eight yards per carry. Their secondary has been also their number one in past defense dv away so far this season. So good luck, Washington. I don't know what you're going

to be able to do in this game. I understand that you're home and you're getting nine, nine and a half, ten points, whatever it is. I would still be laying the points with San Francisco in the spot. I do think that they're that dominant. I think that Kyle Shanahan wants to stick it to Dance Nider and Washington a little bit here in the spot. I like both Washington. I like both San Francisco running backs as well. Tevin Coleman a high end RB two for me this week.

He is the guy right now. I understand he dropped a receiving touchdown in the red zone last week, but he's been used in the red zone a lot since he's returned. The workload has been there. Matt Brita probably still gonna see his you know, ten to twelve, maybe thirteen fourteen touches here, and it's a good matchup. So I like Brita. Moore as a low nd RB two high inflex I like Tevin Coleman as a high end wide running back to George Kittle. Obviously, if you own him,

you're using him. And I think Dante Pettis, Greg, if you're really sneaky, I know you were talking if you're really desperate. I know that you were talking about a team where you're you need wide receiver help badly. You know some people are gonna turn to Alan Lazard. I think Dante Pettis isn't play. I think he's a sneaky play You can laugh at me. I understand him, the Dante Pettis guy, but he played the most snaps last week. He played a season high and snaps last week, and

Josh Norman has not practiced all week. I don't know if that honestly hurts or or helps Washington right now, the way that he's been playing. But their secondary is not good. I think if they want to take some shots here, Dante Pettis isn't play if you are desperate for a wide receiver. Not saying he's you know, a must start Greg, but if you are desperate, it is a good matchup for dance people talking to Mark, he's Goodwin as a sneaky play for the same reason. And

the problem is that they rotate their wide receiver. Dante Pettis is playing the most of them right now, and in Goodwin and Deebo Samuel are kind of shuffling in and now, and they're playing the same amount of snaps and the targets are inconsistent. If I choose a wide receiver from this game, it's gonna be Pettis for me. Surprise, surprise, surprise, going after you meagined wide receivers you can pick to potentially fill in. That brings me to Tennessee and the

Los Angeles Chargers. Tennessee making a quarterback change. You saw Ryan Tannehill come. They didn't relieve of Marcus Mariota last week. He gets to start again to the Los Angeles Chargers at home in Nashville on Sunday. I don't know how they're gonna utilize their wide receivers this week. Obviously we know about Ryan Tannehill's connection with Jarvis Landry all those years in Miami. Maybe Adam Humphreys comes into play, Corey Davis, Taj Sharp, A J. Brown, They're all in the mix

as well. He see this one breaking down and we'll just start any of these guys, all right, So I'll start off with the Tennessee Titans side of things, and they're you know, their past catching options. I think it can't hurt Marcus Mariota could not get the ball in the hands of his playmakers. The Tennessee Titans have to stop playing Taj sharpy just have to throw a j Brown out there as their wide receiver to put him out there in two wide receiver sets, play him more

than Taj Sharp. When they go to three wide receivers, Adam Humphries comes in and plays in the slot. Actually like Humphreys the most all three wide receivers this week, Greg, I think it's a good matchup going up against the slot here against the Chargers and Ryan Tannehill. The one thing that we know about him was when he was in Miami, he threw the ball at on to Jarvis Landry. Now that might have been in Adam Gays philosophy thing, but he's used to throwing to the slot, and I

think Adam Humphries gets a boost here. Uh, it can't hurt Delaney Walker. If you're desperate at tight end, you know he's seen his snaps come down, you know, the past month or so, which is weird because they need all the help, uh for their offensive playmakers as they could possibly get. I don't want to do the Corey Davison greg He's gonna be going up against Casey Hayward. It can't hurt the Tannehills the quarterback. But I'd rather take a wait and see with Corey Davis if I can,

if you're desperate. I think Adam Humphreys didn't play in that similar range as a Dante Pettis. I like Derrick Henry this week. We know that they want to run the football. They want to play smash Mount football. The Chargers are allowing four point five seven yards per carry to opposing running backs to season. I think it's a good spot for Derrick Henry. On the other side of things, what do we do with Melvin Gordon and Austin Ekeler. They're outside of my top twenty four. Both of them

are outside of my top twenty four. It's hard to trust either one right now. Russell Okung is expected to return for this game. He's a good run bocker, helps their offensive line, But honestly, I want to see them do it for a game before I get them back in my lineup. And honestly, if Melvin Gordon has a good game on my bench or Austin Ekeler, I'm not gonna be kicking myself. How can you trust these guys

right now? I want to see them have a good game again before I go back to the Chargers running back. So for me, there's nothing more than high end flex options. They're not must start running max for me. Keenan Allen, where have you been? You're on the back of a

milk carton right now. The targets have been down. I think if your own Keenan Allen, you gotta still go go with him because that is a guy where if I bench Keenan Allen and he goes off, I will kick myself because this is a guy that you spent a second round pick on, a third round pick on, and we know what his upside can be. We saw that earlier on in the season. In fact, I think

Mike Williams doesn't play here. Greg. I know the Tennessee Titans are a good defense, but Mike Williams has seen double digit targets in back to back games and he has not scored a touchdown yet this year. He scored ten touchdowns last season. Some touchdown regression is going to be coming for Mike Williams. I think he's in play and I love love Hunter Henry This week, especially in DFS.

His price has not caught up to what he did last week, and the Tennessee Titans are allowing the eighth most fantasy points to opposing tight ends so far this season. So I really like Hunter Henry. I think Mike Williams is sneaky as well, high end wide receiver three for me, now that you care about this, right game. But yeah, but our next game was Baltimore in Seattle, and I

was really excited about this one. I think be awesome, fireworks, right, Russell Wilson versus Lamar Jackson should be the best game of the week, to be honest, I'm totally with you, man. And it's one of just a few games on at four o'clock, right, so we have, let's see one to have three games at four o'clock, and this is not the national game. I was like, Waltimore Seattle awesome. And that's like Dick Stocktons now saying like, oh god, so

the national game is New Orleans and Tenny Bridgewater. I was hoping you're not Strawinsky and Chicago, Like, how do they not give us Baltimore in Seattle? Well, they make this before the season, right, they can switch what they can switch that? I maybe before the season with the Nation is yeah, I mean, well they might have had

the broadcasters already set up. It is terrible, I agree, in prime time and if you have a way to watch all the games, I mean, you're gonna want to watch this Seahawks and Ravens, it's gonna be a really fun one of forty nine total. As of right now, Hollywood Brown did not practice today. I don't think he plays. I think we got another week a big production for Mark Andrews here. I think he's gonna see a ton

of targets. And frankly, I don't think that you can really trust anybody else on the Baltimore Ravens passing attack here, because you know, I have a league, a deeper league where I lost Hollywood Brown last week and I picked up Billie Sneed and started him in his place. He had three catches for fifteen yards. How can you trust anyone else in this Baltimore passing attack right now. They like to spread the ball around to their other tight ends. They'll throw a few times to Miles boykn a few

times to Willie Sneed, But it's really Mark Andrews. He's the guy who you know is going to see consistent targets share. So I love Mark Andrews. Love Lamar Jackson obviously. I think we see a lot out of back and forth here between him and Russell Wilson. Chris Carson top eight running back for me this week, Greg, I mean he's been seeing twenty plus carries weekend and week out. I like Tyler Lockett as well. You know, losing will dis Lee, I think that solidifies the target share for

both Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf. Metcalf to me solid wide receiver three Marcus Peters comes over to the Baltimore Ravens. He can make plays at times, but he also gives up big plays. I think Metcalf is in play here. Metcalf very much and play with thirty seconds ago Someday night football Eagles and Cowboys. Mark Cooper did practice today. Are you waiting for him? I think so. I think he's gonna play. He's gonna try and play through the pain.

You have to start your wide receivers against this eagle secondary right now. It's a tough situation. I like Alshon Jeffrey as a solid wide receiver three as well. I think he's very very sneaky. God are two god or two as a tight end stream this week why not? Yeah, he's Frank Oh Greag will be back here on Monday. We hope. I want to be the next Daily Fantasy Millionaire.

Latavius Murray would be a volume

play here, probably fifteen to twenty touches. They've been signing a bunch of running backs as well. To me, that doesn't bode well for Alvin Kamara, probably not Zack Center, of course, the one that they signed earlier this week. Moving on to our next game, the Houston Texans are in Indianapolis here this week. Shawn Watson men m v P push at this moment as yeah, I know you're checking the head. Yes, yes, I have a twenty five dollar wager on DeShawn Watson to win the m v P,

so would pay out over six hundred bucks. Sounds Let's go, Let's go Texans, let's go. Let's go there in Indianapolis, basing Jacobe Brissette and the Indianapolis Colts, Colts coming off there by. I believe Houston coming off a huge win against the Kansas City Chiefs, the Texans key rolling on the Cults when refresh after the bye week, I think this is gonna be a close game. The spread says

so as well. Right now, the Colts are down to a one point favorite at forty seven point total in this game, and I really like the running backs on both sides here. I have hard Carlos Hide ranked as a top twenty four running back this week. I think he's an RB two coming off a game where he just had twenty six carries a hundred and sixteen rushing yards and going up against the Indianapolis Colts were eight and run defense div away so far this season, So

Carlos hides in a good spot. Obviously, DeAndre Hopkins has not given you what you've expected this year, but you still have to continue to start him. Will Fuller, I am dropping down tremendously right now. To me, he's in that similar conversation as an Alan Robinson. I think he's a solid wide receiver three. He's not the top twenty four wide receiver he has been each of the past

two weeks. Because Kenny Stills is going to play in this game, and we've seen that in games when Kenny Stills plays, Will Fuller does not see the same target share. He does not see as many targets down the field. So I do have some concern over will Fuller. He is not the must start that he has been the past couple of weeks. On the also, Darren Fells. When it comes to Darren Fells, if you are really desperate at the tight end position, I like him as a

low end tight end one. The Colts are giving up the third most fantasy points to opposing tight ends so far this season. On the other side, I mentioned I like the running backs in this game. I think Marlon Max should be able to have some success. I think he's a high end RB two. Again, I think it's a close game, and we saw the Colts know what their recipe is in order to win games in that game against the Kansas City Chiefs before the by Marlon

Mack twenty nine carries has a monster game. I think that they're going to feed him a lot in this game. But if they end up getting into a shootout, Greg we have said this for a long time now. T Y Hilton owns the Houston Texans and he should be able to own them here. Their past defense has not been great so far this season, they have older corners. I don't know that they'll be able to keep up with t Y Hilton. I think he's in a really good spot. He's a high end wide receiver to for

me this week. Outside of him, I think you can stream Brissette. I think he's a cheap DFS play. But any other weapons here, like I don't feel good about the Zach Pascals, any of the other wide receivers. You know, the Dion Kines, we've wanted these wide receivers to step up. It hasn't happened again. I think they really want to run the football and even with the tight ends you know, Greg, with t Y Hilton back, it's really hard to choose between and Eric Ebron versus Jack Doyle
