We can't be wrong. This is where you need to come for seven free fantasy content to win your league's and win that cash. I got my man, the Manimal Christal Cooler with me on the ones and tunes as we usually do. He's keeping it so hot that we sweat steme A big time football Friday, getting into week fourteen, which is definitely the first round of the playoffs for many of you. Here's what we're gonna do on a

big time football Friday. We are going to talk a little bit about what happened yesterday on Thursday Night football as Week fourteen kicked off with the Saint and the Falcons. I gotta tell you something. Speeds had that game cold last night, and I know my man Larry the Silent Soldier knows what I'm talking about. We'll chat up about that a little bit later on. We're also going to

talk about, you know, I love the home dogs. We're gonna talk about all the home dogs on the Sunday slate and which ones I think can win outright on Sunday. I do have a surprising announcement and prediction that I'm gonna make about a home dog. Make sure you stay tuned for that. Later on. What we're gonna do is we're gonna have my guy Chris the analysts Venture call in and we're gonna talk dfs for Week fourteen as well. There's definitely some values there. Giovanni Bernard is very cheap.

I kind of like a Jimmy G. Markey's Goodwin stack. We'll see if christ the analysts Venture likes it as well, and we will take your calls, your questions, your comments in the chat room. The number to call is eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine. We're gonna open up the phone lines a little bit later on so Speeds the Spitting Statistician can help the hashtag stats over beat cipher win their leagues and win that cash. And as always, I gotta pull question up for you

on Twitter. You could always follow me at spitting Speeds ask me questions. You know I'd like to respond to you. If you use the hashtag stats over beats, I'll see it for sure and I will prioritize that response. But the poll question is which home dog that is a three point home dog has the best chance to win outright on Sunday. Is it the Panthers getting three points at home against the Vikings. Is it the Cleveland Browns at home trying to get their first win against the

Green Bay Packers. Is it the Arizona Cardinals at home against the Tennessee Titans, Or is it the New York Football Giants, who apparently will have Eli Manning back under center. Steve Spagnola as an interim coach as they welcome the Cowboys their field goal home dogs here at MetLife Stadium. That's what we're gonna talk about, and we'll also trying to help you out because, like I said, Week fourteen is either a last regular season week or you're in

the playoffs. Yeah, Jim Mora, we're talking about playoffs. It's your boys Speeds, the spitting statistician right here on the Fantasy Freestyle dropping stats over beats on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Come all, right back, it's a football Friday. Let's go pay on Frank Standfeld and here is Greg Sussman of the Fantasy Football Best Friends Forever. What can you tell me about the d k MS

Big Game Challenge. All you need to do is answer for treatment questions correctly, and you are going to the big Game in Minnesota on seview every fourth. How do we get involved? Keep listening to the Fantasy Sports Radio Network every day and find out what we're playing. The showtime changes to make sure you're always locking loaded and you can be into because make sure you listen to the Fantasy Sports Radio Network every day up until the Big Game, because we're trying to get away tickets for

You know what it is, a little tribe call quests bringing us back here on the Fantasy Freestyle where we drop stats over beats on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Dame Martinez holding you down on a Friday. Let's get into well, we got a lot to cover. We got some news and notes to

get into. We gotta talk Thursday night football last night. Drew Brees was not excited about what took place. And then we gotta talk a little bit of home Dogs as well before I get into DFS a little bit later on with our boy Chris the analyst Ventra. First of all, um, Alvin Kamara, as you saw on the first drive of the game, got concussed last night. Here's the thing, though, you know Thursday nights, we's got ten games ten days now to be ready for Week fourteen.

Interestingly enough, though seventies seven percent of leagues had Alvin Kamara on a playoff team. The funny part, though, is that my my guy, Tony Senkada told me last hour. Alvin Kamara has been so great that the teams that owned Alvin Kamara, a lot of them have buys, so they were okay, And now we'll still have a week and a half to adjust. But if you were playing Alvin Kamara in your playoffs and you saw him exit, this is a guy you were relying on. So we

hope he gets better. And for those fantasy owners, hey, there's a lot of games left to play. It his hashtag still early. The Cleveland Browns have also released Kenny Brent. This is a guy who did not fulfill the expectations when he signed there as a free agent. Let's look at the practice reports here. Four week fourteen, zach Ertz was back limited in practice, but he is technically updating an earlier report. He has not actually cleared the concussion

protocol just yet. They expect that to happen. They expect him to be ready. But if you need him this week, you may want to pick up a tight end or a guy like Trey Burton who could be a plug in play option for the Philadelphia Eagles. Tyrod Taylor also limited in practice. He is going to be a true game time decision. The other quarterback in question this week is Matthew Stafford. He practiced again. It looks like he's

gonna go. He's a tough guy, he's gonna grid it out um and he's got a plus matchup also against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So I think Stafford and Tyrod is gonna go. I think Stafford, though, is a more sure thing. Amari Cooper has been downgraded too doubtful. It's not the concussion, it's the ankle injury. I think that sets up great for Michael Crabtree in that match up against a banged up Kansas City secondary and by banged up and includes the suspended Marcus Peters and Jalen Ramsey.

We gotta keep an eye out on him. He's gonna be a cute a true questionable tag. I think that impacts Russell Wilson and impacts Doug Baldwin. So make sure you see if Jalen Ramsey goes for the cat scratch fever over there in Jacksonville. Manny Sanders in Denver is also going to be a legitimate questionable because of an ankle injury. Though backpracticing Kelvin Benjamin. He has good play to suit up, but I would not like Kelvin Benjamin necessarily this week. I know he's got a great matchup,

but he hasn't been there. We don't know who the quarterback is. He doesn't really have chemistry with Tyrod or with Nate Peterson if you want to know the truth. Jeremy Macklin back at practice. He should be okay. Robbie amswis and he should be okay. Remember he sustained a little uh hamstring issue in practice yesterday. It was a late week add to the injury report. But they say he is okay and we'll go against the no fly zone in Denver. Richard Matthews looks like he should be

good to go for a return. Remember he's been dealing with that hamstring injury for Exotic smash Mouth. He now complicates it. Even more reason to stay away from a guy like Corey Davis. I told you to fade him. I love his skill, but he won't be a viable fantasy option until next year. Doug Martin also clear from the concussion protocol. Looks like he is going to start for the Tampa Bay Bucks. That really cloud muddies the waters though, remember Peyton Barber pop quiz joc quiz. You

got Charles Sims there in passing downs as well. And also it looks like Adrian Peterson is not going to go for the Cardinals, and we know Joe Mixon will not go for the Cincinnati Bengals, making Geo Vanni Bernard a true stud as kind of the last man standing in that Cincinnati backfield. Remember, Jeremy Hill has already been sent to I R for Cincinnati. All right, last night, the Atlanta Falcons beat the New Orleans Saints. That score

was twenty to seventeen. I gotta tell you something. First of all, we talked about Alan Kamara, and you know that that is really sad to see. In the first drive of the game, he's in the protocol. He had to go to the cold, dark quiet room for the rest of that game. If you're a Camara owner, it's like, you know, Karma is a B I. T. C. H. Apparently so as Camara. But we'll see what happens for owners. But like I said, a lot of Camara owners wound

up doing so good this season. They've got to buy, so they've got time to adjust I told you the way this game was gonna go. I went against the people in the poll. I said, I liked the Atlanta Falcons last night minus two and a half, and I liked the under. I also went so far to say last night on this show that I thought this would be a game that was probably ten ten at halftime and then opened up a little bit later. But I liked the home field advantage and I liked that Atlanta,

and I like the under. Well, guess what, it was ten ten at halftime. Then it opened up a little bit. Atlanta covered the two and a half point spread and it wasn't under. I was going back and forth with my guy Larry hashtag with at dust silent Soldier on Twitter. We were going back and forth throughout the game, and he was like, Yo, this starts to be looking like my man. Speed said, and let me tell you something. I told told you last night that I liked the

ten ten halftime score. I told you last night I had two diamonds in the rough. They were mark Ingram over Alvin Kamara, and you know because of injury that definitely happened. And the other guy said, was I liked Mohammed. It's a new day, because I thought Lattimore could do decent work on Julio Jones and Matt Ryan would have to look elsewhere. And that's exactly what happened. He found some new in the end zone. They both had similar catches and yards, but the touchdown went to Mohammed Sanu.

So I would say, that's another called shot by your boy Speeds, the spitting statistician. What is going on with Matt Ryan. It wasn't Maddie Ice when you ask how many times he turned the ball over? It was Maddie thrice last night. Three interceptions in consecutive possessions. I think at one point he had interceptions on back to back throws. And that is not gonna get it done. Somehow, though,

it kept on working out for the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints think it worked out because of injury ease because of penalties. The Atlanta Falcons had nine first downs because of penalty of the New Orleans Saints. They were not happy. Sean Payton, not happy about the officiating, ran onto the fields that he was calling a time out. They gave him an unsportsmanlike which effectively gave the Falcons the first

down that ended the game and created victory formation. Drew Brees was not excited about Thursday Night football and the quality of the product. If you listen to the Fantasy freestyle, you know I am all about what Drew Brees was saying. We shall see. I'll tell you what though. It keeps the NFC South. That's very interesting. The Falcons are still

in it, the Saints are still in it. And don't forget about the Carolina Panthers, who I told you I think are going to end the Minnesota Vikings windstreak this Sunday because it is the third straight road game from Minnesota and this is a step up in defense. I think the Panthers stay viable in the NFC South and in the playoff with an upset home dog victory. Speaking of home dogs, let's get into them right now. There's a couple of home dogs that I want to talk about.

I like the Carolina Panthers. I'm telling you, I think this is the week case Keenum takes a little bit of a step back. This is the Vikings third straight road game, and this is a good defense. They're playing a top five defense. They only put up fourteen on the road last week against Atlanta. I think it's similar, and I think the Carolina Panthers are a team that sometimes just blow the doors off at home. I don't know if the Vikings have an answer for Christian McCaffrey.

I do think Xavier Rhodes is an answer for Devin Funcius, but I still like the Carolina Panthers. In a needed spot at home, I say take the point. The Cardinals are three point home dogs against the Titans. Let me tell you something. I don't think the Tennessee Titans are good enough to be home to be road favorites against anybody, especially in a nonconference road spot. I think this passing defense and for Tennessee can get lit up. I like Larry Fitzgerald a lot. You might hear his name in

my DFS lineup. So I take the cards and the points. With the Giants, they're given points. Uh, They're they're getting points. Excuse me? At home against the Dallas Cowboys. To me, I don't touch this game. I have no idea how the Giants are gonna come out with Eli Manning back under center, with with a new interim head coach. I have no idea how this is gonna work out. I don't know if the Dallas Cowboys will be able to establish the game script that they want, which is to

get up and be able to run the ball. It was usually with Ezekiel Elliott, but it works with Alfred Morris as well. Their last win on Thursday Night Football, Alfred Morris went for one. That's the way they want. They don't want this to be on the arm of Dak Prescott, and I can understand why he turned the bowl over eight times in the previous three games. And the Cowboys do have the mini by they were coming off, you know that longer rest. A lot of things up

in the Air Division game. I say away from this one, but I saved the best last. The Cleveland Browns are getting three points at home against the green Bay Packers. I'm gonna tell you something right now. Make sure we clip this, Chris. I think the Cleveland Browns win outright this week. I think the Cleveland Browns get their first win of the season this week at home against the Green Bay Packers. I think it's a tough spot for the Packers. The road road, UM non conference game is

always tough, and I just listen. I think the Browns are chippy at home. They're more competitive at home. Josh Gordon is back. Hey, everyone likes that. I gotta sneaky feeling that the Browns get their first victory of the season here at home against the Green Bay Packers. So I would answer this pole question with the Cleveland Browns and guess what. Thirty four percent of you agree. Do you think the Browns have the best chance, followed by

the Cards, followed by the Panthers. A. I think the Browns, the Cards, and the Panthers can all win outright. I'm not gonna say that about the New York Football Giants though. When we come back is we're gonna do On the Fantasy Freestyle. I got my boy christ the analyst Ventra, you know him here all the time, he Monitus the YouTube stream. He's gonna call in and we're gonna talk DFS plays for week four teen. We're gonna give out some line up to help you win that cash right

here on the Fantasy Freestyle. Coming right back. It's the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Sterling Shepherd, Michael Thomas. These three NFL softwares are not due to slump. They're due to break out, just like the Fantasy Sports Radio Network in year two, things are only getting better. Make sure listen live and tell o the app F and t S Y or radio. It's free and it's twenty four seven the best Fantasy sports on ten. He's on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. That's what I try and tell people.

What a man, What a man, What a man, What a mighty good man. And we are joined right now by another mighty good man. It's Chris the analyst Venture. You know him. He is a friend of the show. Dilly Dilly. What we're gonna do is we're gonna talk a little bit of DFS for week fourteen. This way. Listen. If you're in the Secret Santa or you're going cyber shopping, you know this weekend for the holidays, we want to give you a little bit of extra cash. And remember

we also accept presents. You know, it's all good, right, Venture, How are you doing on this Friday? You accept presents for the people? Right? Oh? Absolutely, we're doing alright, We're doing alright. Hey, Chris, let's talk a little bit about you know, our week fourteen DFS lineup. Let's start right at the top. We were talking all week long about how we've been impressed with Jimmy Garoppolo starting with the

forty niners. He is a very you know, he's a cheaper play, and it sounds like that's where you're going for week fourteen. How why is that? Well, maybe I'm a little fire because I'm Italian and I love yea. His name ends in a vow, so you gotta go with him. And I love the way he played last year with New England. I saw him coming to that drive, um two weeks ago, and then last week I watched

him play. He didn't play terrible. The bands don't have a bad d. I know, he didn't throw a touchdown, but um, you know he's warming up and now he's got this beautiful matchup. He's cheap. He's only seven thousand dollars. I'm FanDuel. I mean, I feel like his price is gonna is gonna rise pretty rapidly as the week go by. So now's a chance, all right? Fair enough, he's got Jimmy Garoppolo at seven thousand. He's mentioned that he's got a good match up against the Houston Texans, who are

twenty second in the NFL. Against the past. I'm going a little bit more expensive, Chris, I'm going with Alex Smith at two hundred. Listen, I think the key is this. We heard last week that Andy Reid gave play calling duties over to the offensive coordinator, and we saw Alex Smith once again get aggressive, go down the field. It worked with Tyreek Hill not once, not twice, but maybe three times. I also like him against this Oakland Raiders secondary.

They are twenty three in the NFL against the past. Remember they played already once this year and it was a thirty one thirty game. I like a little bit of the rushing potential for Alex Smith as well. So I'm going Alex Smith at eight two d at my quarterback. But Chris, I really like your Jimmy Garoppolo play as well. Let me ask you this, if you've got Jimmy Garoppolo,

where are you stacking him with at wide receiver? Because I got a wide receiver in my line up on San Francisco and it is mark He's Goodwin at fifty seven hundred. I was very impressed with the chemistry between Jimmy g and Marky's Goodwin. Eight catches on eight targets for ninety nine yards, and it wasn't just the big play. It wasn't just the over the top, he was getting intermediate in short routes also, so I like that as a cheap stack. Do you have Marky's Goodwin in your

lineup as well? Yeah? Absolutely, I'm really banking on Jimmy and good Win this week. There's no other receivers really on that team. You want to talk about Trent, but he's more of a splot guy, yeah, and uh, you know, and then Carlos Hide so and I think already they're developing a report together. And he's only played one full start with Goodwin, so I think there's better things to come in the horizon. And he's also a big bus opportunity good when he can get you a hundred and

undred thirty yards and a touchdown er two. So I like that in my fan new line up. Yeah. Absolutely. He's a guy like you know, like the Will Fullers, the DeShawn Jackson's of the world. He has world class speed and we'll see if we can use that over the top. What other wide receivers do you have a Week four A team? Chris, I'm going with um, I'm paying up. I'm going with Keenan Allen. I gotta ride Keenan Allen right now, I mean he's just doing way too good the last three or four weeks. You're not

worried about Josh shutting him down. No, I'm not too worried. I mean Norman uh, I mean, he hasn't been the same player he was when he was with Carolina. He was banged up a couple of times this year, so I think can still beat him. He's gonna get targets, and he's just been getting over a hundred yards every game. I mean, I'm gonna bank on them. I'm gonna stay with that hot hand and the other guy, I'm gonna

go with his Tyreek Hills. He's another one who's getting a lot of targets, is getting put up a tremendous amount of yards in a couple of touchdowns. I think I'm gonna rod those two hot hands going into week week fourteen. Here, all right, fair enough, Listen, If Tyreek Hill scores, I would love it because Alex Smith is my quarterback. And again, Tyreek Hill can score via the run game or via the plunt return game as well. So if he does get in the end zone, I

hope it's a bomb from Alex Smith. I have Marky's goodwin in my lineup as well my other two wideouts, though, Chris, I'm going Michael Crabtree. I think this sets up against the bad Kansas City Past defense, who will be without their best cornerback Marcus Peters. Remember he suspended this week after the team disciplined him from throwing the flag into

the stands against the Jets. I like Michael Crabtree because remember also there's Noah Marii Cooper, and Amari Cooper popped off in that Thursday night game against the Chiefs last time. Maybe that means Michael Crabtree can do the same this week. And then I'm also taking Larry Fitzgerald. I like Larry Fitzgerald against the Tennessee Titans. This Titans defense can be had via the past game. They are twenty five in the league. I think they're actually even a little bit

worse than that with the stats. Say and come on, Larry Fitzgerald, it's like deaf taxes and Larry Fitzgerald, I think Blaine Gabbert keys in on him. Those are my wide receivers Larry Fits at seventy six, Michael Crabtree at seventy one, and Marky's goodwin at fifties seven a Ventra. Where are you going at the running back position? I remember last time you're on we forgot about your running backs. I want to make sure we don't do that again.

Where you gotta running back position this week? Uh? Right now I'm going with I'm doing another San Francis. You are heavy on the Niners. You believe in the Niners this week for sure? Huh Yeah, I absolutely believe in the minors. I mean calle Side, he's had a pretty pretty good year, Yes, pretty roll, And I'm gonna ride that because now he's got Garoppolo and then makes the offense more dynamic and he's got the great matchup, So I think this offense is gonna get a ton of

opportunity to squaw. And I want a piece of hide with Garoppolo because he gots passes as well. And then my other running back, this is my risky play. This is where I'm switching it up a lot. But Leonard Pournette, I'm paying up a little bit here, and I know he hasn't that Seattle run defense with Sheldon Richardson in there. Yeah, it's been a lot better lately. But uh, you know, the max up thar aren't weren't the greatest overall. They've had some good Matt. But I think for Nett, you know,

he's starting to roll along again. He's starting to have a ton of touches, is he he said, no, Yeah, he is. Twenty runs last week fifty seven yards only, but he did get a rushing touchdown and another three for twenty me too in the passing game, So I'm okay with that. Yeah, and two weeks before they get umpletely So I think that Jacksonville is gonna destroy them this game. I really do. I think Jacksonville at home are gonna make a statement beat Seattle UH by a

large margin. And I think they're gonna get a ton of opportunity in the red zone, red zone and in the goal on which means I think is gonna have a couple of touchdowns game. All right, fair enough? At running back, I'm going slightly different. My heavily price my expensive guy is Shady McCoy. I'm going on Lashawn McCoy against the Indianapolis Colts. The Cults have been a defense we have attacked all season long. I think Lashawn McCoy can continue that he is really the only option for Buffalo.

I don't care if it's Tyrod or Nate Peterman under center for the Bills. I think McCoy is their offense. You know, Kelvin Benjamin doesn't really have a rapport there. Charles Clay still rounding into form coming back from the injury. I think McCoy is their offense. I like him in the past game as well. Give me Lashawn McCoy at nine thousand and then I'm pairing him with some J. P. Ryan. I think it's interesting, Chris, that neither one of us have Giovanni Bernard, who I think will be the most

heavily owned back as a cheap RB one. But I like some J. P. Ryan. He's facing the Chargers right and the Chargers, check this out, are fifth against the past, but thirty feet against the run. I think some J. P Ryan is set up to have an interesting day for the Washington football team. Chris, where you going at

tight end? I am going back to my guy as an ingram of the New York Football TI at home against Dallas last week, he had a good game with step back Sheefard coming is gonna play this week again. I believe so uh, I think he's gonna have opportunity to score again. And he lies back as well, so he loves to talk at his tight end. He loves to talk at Ingram. I think he has another big

day in the touchdown. I like that. I like that Evan Ingram called guess what, though you said you like a guy to get a touchdown, guess what, Chris, I am going with the tight end that is the same exact pri as Evan Ingram. However, I'm going to that Tennessee Arizona game. Give me Delaney Walker. I think Delaney Walker is a consistent force. You know, the tight end position has been so up and down this year. I think Delaney Walker is one of the most consistent options.

And I think he's gotten in the end zone the last two games. I think the Arizona Cardinals past defense can be had outside of Patrick Peterson. He is the first guy that Marcus Mariotta looks too. So I like Delaney Walker at my tight end for sixty six hundred. He was listed as UM a limited participant in practice, but they took him off the injury report completely this week today. So I think Delaney Walker is nice. At

the same price as Ingram sixties hundred. Where you're going on defense, Chris, I love that play Blaney Walker in every season long? Um, Green Bay Packers, you're fading DeShawn Kaiser hunh. Yeah. This is a risky one. Um, but I paid for all these guys that I that I up my lineup, and you only played like a really go he was a Packard. I wanted to go Jaguars, but I couldn't. Still, I'm okay with Green Bay. If

they could get me twelve thirteen points, I'll be happy. Uh. And I think they could do that against the Browns. The brown make a ton of mistakes on offense, and you know I could easily fair enough. Hey, Chris, you're doing the Green Bay Packers at five thousand, I went down and I'm spending a little bit less at fort hundred. Give me the Denver Broncos. They are at home against the New York Jets. The Jets are a completely different

team on the road. I know that Dake von Miller can get pressure on Josh McCown and I know there's no flies on. We've heard Robby Anderson potentially banged up as well. I don't buy this Jets offense on the road in Denver, so I have the Denver Broncos as my defense at fort hundred. Listen up, guys, if you like Chris's lineup, if you're like my lineup, go on over to Rhodo Experts dot com or Daily Rhodo dot com slash d k m S. There's only a couple of weeks left. We're doing the free free roll and

Thomas or um Doug Baldwin, that's tough. I would definitely do it over DT real quick, let's go one at a time, Taco. I would do it over d T because Simeon and the Broncos have been unraveling lately. Okay, so DT concerns me. I wouldn't want my playoffs on the line with DT Doug Baldwin. However, Taco, I really think you have to see any updates on Jaalen Ramsey. Okay, that is key because if Jalen Ramsey is playing, I think he can go into the slot with Doug Baldwin

and handle him. But if there is no Jalen Ramsey, then I love a little bit of Doug Baldwin. Okay, so that's what you need to do. But if there is Jalen Ramsey, then I like shep the best of those guys, if that makes sense, Taco, All right, question. I played Freeman last night, did pretty good. I need to I need two more running back because I like to play one of my flesh I have. I have some R. J. P. Ram, Alfred Morris and Drake, and two of those two of them. I like Kenyan Drake

this week. I like Kenyan Drake against Miami. He's like the last guy left for the Miami Dolphins, and you saw what he did last week. I think he's getting, you know, in the flow of that offense. And I actually like some J. P. Ryan this week. Uh, Taco. I like some J. P. Ryan. I think he's got a decent matchup against the Chargers. The Charges are really strong against the past, not so much against the run. Their thirty one in the league against the run. So I think some J. P Ryan might line up for

a decent game. So give me Kenyan Drake and some J. P. Ryan. You know you've seen Kareem Hunt has hit the wall and with Alfred Morris, it's all about game script. If the Cowboys can get up big, then they ride Morris. But I don't know if that's necessarily what's gonna happen. But thanks for the call, Taco. I hope you keep you going in the playoffs. Call me back next week and we'll continue to hopefully help you out so you can win those leagues. All right, Taco, Great to hear

from you again. Dilly Dilly. Up next on the Fantasy Freestyle, we go to Dennis in Bean Town. Hey, Dennis, you are on the Status over beat Cipher and the Fantasy Freestyle talking to Speeds. How can I help you get a playoff? W are you still? Are you there? Are you there? Dennis? Going once? Going twice? Sold? Okay, then we keep it moving here on the Fantasy Freestyle. Up next then is Brett in Canada. Hey, Brett north of the border. Hey, you're here on the Fantasy Freestyle. I'm

trying to help you win and get a playoff. W what's going on, Brett? Oh? Not much, buddy. Hey, I got two part questions for you. Josh mccount over Jared Goff, Geo Binard over Jordan Howard. Alright, fair enough. Um, here's the thing. Uh, yes to Geo Bernard. I love Geo Bernard this week, and the reason is because he has no competition for touches. Okay, Jordan Howard has been a bell cow in the past, but it seems like they're trying to rework Tyreek Owen into the mix a little

bit more. Okay, So I'm off Jordan Howard and I think Giovanni Bernard is a great option this week. The quarterbacks you mentioned were McCown and Goff. I believe I would go Jared Goff. I wouldn't go Josh McCown against this. No flies on the Denver secondary. You know they are studs, and Jared Goff is facing the Philadelphia Eagles. They are the team the Eagles, mind you that is very stout against the run, not as much against the past. I think they try to, you know, uh, win it on

the arm of Jared Goff. I think Jared Goff could be a volume can thrower and see three hundred yards. So that's the way I would go, Brett, give me Goff and then um give me Oh, I forget who we already said, but give me I like Giovanni Bernard absolutely up and I hope it works out for your Brett called me back next week if you're still contending in the playoffs. Up next, on the Fantasy Freestyle with Stats Overbeat Cipher, we go to Jimmy in Ohio. Hey, Jimmy,

how do we how do we help you? As if the playoff week for you it is do or die. Let's get you a w Jimmy, how can we help you win your leagues and winnag cash. You're on the Stat's over Beat Cipher on the Fantasy Freestyle, Heyway, I have a couple of quick questions. Uh, I played in a two quarterback league at six point past touchdown, so I needed two of the three Derek Carr, Jamiswanston and Ben Roethlisberger. Sure, I like Derek Carr. I like Derek car.

Remember I told you how much I love Crabtree because I want to attack this Chief secondary. Remember that last game on Thursday Night Football was thirty one thirty. It was a big time shootout, and the Chiefs are now, you know, compromised without Marcus Peters. So I like Derek Carr. And then my second one for you, man is definitely big Ben Roethlisberger. They're playing the Ravens. They are at home. You know, big Ben is better at home, and the

Ravens are without their number one cornerback, Jimmy Smith. So I like that. I like Antonio Brown, I like Levy on Bell out of the backfield. I think the Steelers stay hot. So I'm going with Car and Big Ben. And that's my answer to your first question. You got another one for me, Jimmy, Yeah, Well, well they've just announced that Mark Cooper has like an outside shot. I guess a plan now, So I clearly have him on the bench and I have Jamal Williams in the flex.

So my question is, uh, if Cooper play, should I bench Williams or play Williams over Alfred Morris PPR Standard and put Cooper into play is the PPR standard h PPR UM. I think Jamal Williams is the safer play. I gotta tell you the truth. I think Jamal Williams is the safer play. You've seen him get production in the run game and in the Passing game. I think Jamal Williams is the safer play. If you listen to this show, Uh, Jimmy, you know I've been down on

a Mariy Cooper all season. So Mark Cooper is not going to be my answer to almost any question. And even though I like Derek Carr, even though I like attacking the chief secondary, I think the safer play is Jamal Williams. Thank you for the call. I hope it helps you. Go ahead, go ahead if he if he does happen to play, would you start him over Crowder? No?

Not in PPR settings. Not in PPR settings. I think Jamison Crowder is the kind of a kind of wide receiver, just like saying Jarvis Landry, who in PPR settings is really good because he gets a lot of receptions. So no, I personally don't like Amari Cooper, but hey, man, go with your gut if you think otherwise, I would keep Jamal Williams in that flex spot. Up next on the Fantasy Freestyle, we go to Massachusetts where Steve is waiting for us. Hey, dilly, dilly, Steve, how's it going, Let's

help you get to w in the playoffs? Oh? Thanks, man, I have a few, I have a few line up questions, have five away quick hitters. Let's go, all right, So my first my first thing is is uh my RP, my RP wide receiver because of Joe Mixon, wasn't wasn't playing? Yes, love it absolutely. I think Giovanni Bernard Listen Jammer is gonna be the heaviliest owned running back in df US this week. I like the matchup. I like him out of the past game as well, and he's the only

guy there. He's gonna be like a workhorse. He's gonna get all the touches. So I love Geo Bernard this week, Steve, what else we got? All right? Yeah? And I'm also I also have to play on them back, so I have I have to end up going with Kareem mortin Turon. But my LA question is uh wide receiver. I'm kind of I'm kind of struggling figuring out to play Kelvin Benjamin and Martevis Calvin. Benjamin finally had had his full practice, so it looks like he's gonna go. Should I count

on him or should I just go with Marteves. I would go with Martevis Bryan. Steven. Here's why I don't trust this Buffalo Bill's offense. We don't know if Tyrod Taylor is gonna play. I understand the matchup is good right against India. I believe I understand the matchup is good, but I don't know if he's Nate Peterman, if it's Tyrod Taylor. I just don't trust the Bill's offense. I'll tell you what offense. I do trust the Pittsburgh Steelers, and I think Martevis Briant is gonna be good because

remember Jujuice Smith Schuster is suspend it for this one. Steve, So, Yes, I like Martavis Bryant. Yes, I like Giovanni Bernard. I hope it helps you keep staying alive in the playoffs. Call me back next week and let me know how it goes. Steve Dilley. Dilley up next on the Fantasy Freestyle. Closing out this segment, we go to Tony in Texas. Hey, Tony, how can we help you get a playoff W? You're on the status over beat cipher with spitting statistician speeds.

What's up? Yo? Dang? What's man? Just wanted to say, the cipher is real. I was overing for starting in the season, and then I was just searching, so searching on YouTube and found your show and now I'm at five in the playoffs. Alvin Kamara, Yeah, I hear that. What do I think about what Josh MCCOWNE McCown or Jimmy g All right, real quick, I'm gonna tell you something. I'm gonna tell you right now, Tony. First of all, thanks for the love. I hope we turned your team around.

I'm excited we may have done that for you. I am going I am liking Jimmy G this week. I think he's got a good matchup like Jimmy G over Josh McCown against Denver. I hope that helps you out, Tony. I hope you get a W in the playoffs. I go Jimmy G at quarterback over Josh McCown. When we come back, we're checking on the poll and we talked to my man Danny and the Fantasy Pit of Misery, and we see what's going on right now in the YouTube live stream, answering some questions, helping people win their

leagues and win that cash on the Fantasy Freestyle. Coming right back Fantasy Free Style. I think the Cleveland Browns win outright this week. I think the Cleveland Browns get their first win of the season at home against the Green Bay Packers. I think it's a tough spot for the Packers. The road of nonconference game is always tough. I think the Browns are chippy at home. They're more competitive at home. Josh Gordon is back. He everyone likes that.

I gotta sneaky feeling that the Browns get their first victory of the season here at home. Wereek days from seven to a pm. E. Stern on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network and only the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Right now, Rock and Riley is making him pop off right now. We got holiday parties a plenty. It is the most wonderful time of the year. But we got my man, the Manual, Chris Bovona. We had

a couple of questions from the YouTube feed. So, Chris, what are the people or what were the people saying a little bit earlier on they want some help from the spitting statistician. What's going on? Christ? Sadly we had to go dark on this, but we did get some questions from our good friends on the YouTube stream. The first one comes from him Pep in a PPR, you gotta picked three of these three out of these four, Kareem Hunt, Shady Geo or Alfred Morris. Okay, I'm going

with Geo for sure. You've heard my take on that. I'm going with Shady for sure. He's in my DFS lineup, so you know I like him there. And then you said Kareem Hunt or Alfred Morris is correct? Yeah, I'm gonna go Alfred Morris. I just I have to see it with Kareem Hunt first. You know. It's it's it's been so long since Kareem Hunt has actually been worth it for me. I believe that if the if the Calibays get up on the Giants in this game, that they're gonna try to ride Alfred Morris just like they

did last week and feed him the rock. So I would go here. Giovanni Bernard Shady McCoy and then Alfred Morris. What else do we got Bivona? Okay, well, actually this one's from west at a full point PPR. But of course we can answer this perfectly because he's asking if he should start Mike Davis over Kenny Stills. Come on, we already know that, we already know the news on that, So I'm gonna go to the next one. Here, This is from Don Preston. Here, should I bench Dion Lewis

and flex Doug Baldwin? Should I bench Dion Lewis and flex Doug Baldwin? Well, again, when it comes to Doug Baldwin, the critical factor really is um is Jalen Ramsey going to play? Jalen Ramsey is a top notch corner who does travel into the slot where Doug Baldwin likes to go a lot. Okay, so Jalen Ramsey plays in that scenario. I'm down on Doug Baldwin. But if he can't go and he is a true questionable game time decision, it looks like in that case, I love Doug Baldwin and

Chris we got time for one more question? Whatever? Abs do have time for one more question? This is from Martin in a PPR. Pick one out of your boy Josh Gordon, Marvin Jones Jr. Or your real boy Stefan. You finish it? Can you digs it? Um? Wow? Here's the thing. And and and Chris, this is gonna surprise you. I don't know about Stefon Diggs. Remember I said I think the shine comes off the case Keenum rose today in their third straight road game against the Carolina Panthers.

So and Dix hasn't popped off in his return since the groin injury. So I'm a little bit hesitant on Digs. Marvin Jones Jr. I like him, but Matthew Stafford's hand is a concern for or me. So I don't know. I might be fading all of the Detroit Lions, I think. And you can't believe this, Chris. I think my answer is Josh Gordon. I can believe it. I think my answer is Josh Gordon on this one. Do we have any more crisp? And? Unfortunately that is it from them. I could ask you a question about me, No, I

don't want to hear about you. I'll come down to the fantasy pit of misery and we can talk together in a couple of minutes. What I do want to let the people know. Programming note for you guys. On Monday, we talked about how there's a holiday parties here at Rock and Riley's all the time. Well, guess what. The Fantasy Sports Network Holidade party is here on Monday. So what we're doing, and they're letting me enjoy the party as well. Okay, the party starts at seven o'clock. They're
