I also want to tell you guys, we are extremely pleased to welcome to ster Network and the Stir audience to our Sports Grid network.

We got all sorts of distribution pop and you know how you can hear this bitting statistician and the fantasy freestyle so you can win your leagues and win that cash. We got a good show for you as usual on a Monday. Here's we're gonna do. We are going to look back news notes, injuries, updates since the last convening
of the Cipher. Now that week ten is almost in the books, and boy is there a great way to end it off that we'll talk about later on in the show. We'll look at our week ten takeaways. What Speed's got right, what Speed's got wrong, What he did to help you win a little bit of cash. Who put it in my eye? There's definitely a certain running back in Tennessee that put it in my eye. This week we'll talk about. We'll then spend it forward to
week eleven. You know, we'll look at the waiver wire and at this point, after ten weeks, there's only three weeks of the regular season still left. Okay, so we're gonna not only talk about the waiver wire, but we're gonna start to try to get ahead of it. I know some people in the chat room already asking me questions. We will, in fact preview Monday night football Seattle Seahawks and these San Francisco forty nine is this line has moved a little bit. It's staring at six and a
half right now. The total is around forty seven and a half. I'll give you some leans for that game. I got a couple of prop bets that I like in that one as well. Let's dig into it injuries from you know, looking back at week ten. The first one is Davante Freeman with that foot issue. This is interesting to me alright because you know Smith was already sent to i R. Now that Freeman, you know, he left the game. It went to Ryan Hill who started to do work. Will his name be in my waiver wire?
Diamonds and fool gazes. A little bit later on, Matthew Stafford missed that game with the back right. They're now exploring if the Lions were above board and fully transparent with that, or did they know a little bit earlier. But here's what I'm gonna say the same thing I say for a guy like A J. Green. You know, if Matthew Stafford, now the Lions are three five and one, why why you know? Now, I get it, that's a little bit different than a J. Green and the Bengals
at like oh and nine. But you know, let's not rush right back. It's the same as like Cam Newton. Why rushed right back? I don't know what we're gonna see with Matthew Stafford. And here's the other point. This now makes six team of the thirty two NFL teams that have had to go to at least two quarterbacks this year. It is a fifty fifty proposition, y'all. Okay, six teams have had to go to their third string quarterback. Okay, literally six teams. The Indianapolis Colts have gone to Brian Hoyer.
You remember, Andrew luck was their QB one, then Brissette Gardner, Minshew all right, uh, David fuck uh Hodges, Delvin Hodges. We got now Haskins is going to start the rest of the year. Brandon Allen in Denver. Okay, this is now sixteen teams half the league I had to go to at least their QB two. You know, I mean, could Tampa be on the horizon in a similar situation? And this makes me think, will Lamar Jackson last? Now I think, and I've been saying it, you know, for weeks.
I think, is he is a deserving co favorite, one of the quarterbacks that's gonna kick off in about an hour, right, but one hit and it's over. Remember r G three. Like That's why to me, it's so incredible what Russell Wilson does right, because it's not like a Deshaun Watson and Aaron Rodgers some of these amazing quarterbacks that just can't get through the season. You know, what does that mean for a guy like Kyler Murray? What does that mean? For a guy like Baker Mayfield? What does that mean?
You know, whether it's Mitch or whether it's Sammy d Will these guys all make it through to be able to develop as a quarterback. It is literally a fifty fifty proposition. Ty Johnson out with the concussion. He's in the concussion protocol. That looks like it's usually a one week kind of injury. Will see about that one. Austin Hooper getting an m R I on his knee, that is a name to watch. Remember, Hooper has sort of been ascending into one of those matchup proofs tight ends.
Remember I say the tight ends are pretty much like a touchdown crap shoot, like do they get into the end zone or not like Jack Doyle did against me in the league. Or are they truly one of the top guys, you know, one of the top oh, I don't know at this point, like six or seven guys. And Hooper was pushing to be in there, but then he's gonna be banged out right now with a knee. Talk about another knee for another tight end. They have announced George Kittle is in fact inactive tonight for Monday
Night football. So if that's what you need, you need to pivot, we'll talk about how you could pivot. I see it seems like somebody in the chat rooms already asking me about that. First of all, you should this is why you never leave a guy in that spot unto those Sunday on Monday Night football, and if you do, you put them in the flex spot, so you have more flexibility right now. But we'll try and help you out on that. Um James Conner. They think we'll be
back for Thursday Night Football. But that's week eleven. So when we come back, what we're gonna do is we're gonna talk more about week ten. All right. We'll talk about what I got right, what I got wrong, What are the main takeaways that you can spin forward and uh yeah, we'll also have to talk about once again, not only the stats over beat Cipher, but the entire sports good crew, baking and pop helping you win your
leagues and win that cash. We'll talk about it some more Episode four hundred and sixteen of The Fantasy Freestyle. I got my crew to stats over beat Cipher.

John, Welcome back Fantasy Freestyle here on the Sports Grid Network episode four hundred and sixteen. Big shout out to the
stats Open Beat Cipher. I got a couple of questions in the chat room right now, Terry isn't a bad spot needs a tight end tonight. It looks like, you know, remember, these are not good choices. But I guess Hollister, you know if that's what you gotta do, Terry are But here's the deal, and I gotta I can't reinforce this enough.
You should have never been in this position. And Terry, what you need to do if you have a guy like Kiddle right who you know you want to play, or anybody that's in the Monday night football game and it's up in the air and stuff like that, first thing you need to do is move them into your flex position, not have the kind of straight jacket of having Kiddle or now only two options here as your replacement.
You needed to have your idea beforehand because we knew Kid was doubtful, all right, And then you have a little bit more opportunity of guys you could put in there if in case, you know, Kiddle goes down, So you're not just stuck with like Hollister right now. But given where you are, Terry, that's where I would go. I would go to Hollister. Um, Ben, I like what you're doing out there thinking about D. D. Westbrook a
little bit early. Remember I say this all the time people when we do the waiver wire, and we'll talk about it later on in the show. When you know at this point, remember guys who are coming off there by are out there and available, and they're viable for the Monday night football trick. Also, you could do this right now, Ben, but I would not take D. D. Westbrook over the options that you put out there, even a guy like Darius guys that's coming back this week.
And remember also Jacksonville is probably going back to Nick Foles, all right, So I gotta see how that one shakes out. Does he still love him some d J. Chark or does he wind up? You know, we gotta find out about that. And g Falls is asking like a question not necessarily related to fantasy, but who do I think is the best wide receiver in the NFL? My answer is the same as it's been the last few years.
To me, the answer is the de hop the de Hoppopotamus. Okay, because as all these other wide receivers think, like Julio Jones, he's had Matt Ryan his entire career, Davante Adams, Michael Thomas. These guys have had one consistent and usually all pro quarterback his entire year. Do you want me the real off the names of the quarterbacks that DeAndre Hopkins has
produced with in his career. For me, that and the fact that his hands are actually, in my opinion, the best in the NFL is why I would go still with DeAndre Hopkins. All right, though, let's get into it all right. Um. First of all, I gotta let people know I talked about the sports Grid family. Colin Drew does it again? Put it up, Danny, put up this picture. Colin Drew hit again. Bang, that's our boy, Colin Drew. You hear us all the time putting up, Uh, you know,
no big deal, no big deal. Let me just win a hundred and twenty thousand dollars in the showdown last night with Randall cobb In as my captain, A little Dalvin Cook, Dak Prescott, and Mary Cooper had Kyle Rudolph Okay with the two touchdowns. That's what did it. And then you know the rookie IRV Smith Jr. That was the winning lineup in the showdown on Sunday, Colin Drew with a nice little one and twenty k right off the bat. That's a nice way to little start a week.
I would say, So, what do you think Danny? I would think, So that's nice though, that he can do that. I have to sweat it out. I'm in like one of my biggest leagues. I got a big one. I'm up against the Adam Ryness who a lot of you guys know, and uh, I'm up by twenty one. Uh, but we got we got players going to night, so we'll see all right. But in any event, biggest takeaways of Week ten for me for the first one, I
back to Thursday Night football. Um, father time, father time calling Rivers calla comma Philip, father time calling Rivers, Comma Philip. Let me tell you something, Philip. Rivers go seventeen thirty one two and seven yards, two touchdowns, three interceptions. It could have been worse. He could have been and he got sacked like five times it could have been worse. He looked bad. There was no zip on the ball.
He was overthrowing wide receivers in the last drive. He's going to guys like Patton, like, where are these weapons? All Right? You got Mike Williams, you got Keenan Allen, you gotta aask the neckler. You got Hunter Henry, you got Melvin Gordon. It just it didn't look right, okay. And you know, we talked about Eli who's been benched. We talk about Big Ben, who like wonders if he
has anything left in the tank. Right. The Chargers have never addressed the air apparent question really with Philip Rivers, and as we've seen with guys like Peyton Manning, it can fall off a cliff. I'm a little bit worried about Philip Rivers for the back for the season. That is one of my takeaways. And if you saw the end of that Thursday night football game, yeah, maybe you'd be a little bit worried as well. On the flip side, you know what, quarterback I am never worried about anymore.
Maybe not gonna lead a team to the playoffs or anything like that, but but fits magic is real, okay, And and what it is is I'm not saying he's a great quarterback. What he does, though, is he is a leader, He is a teammate. This guy, Yeah, he goes thirty three right a hundred sixty nine yards. Not impressive. You know what I'm impressed by. I'm impressed by the fact that he's on a winless team and then like a one in eight team and he is diving for
first downs on third down scrambles. I am impressed by that. You know what I'm impressed by. At the end of the third quarter, the Dolphins were trying to draw the damn Colts off side, right, and there's Fitzpatrick trying to like get him go off sides and whatnot. It doesn't happen. The third quarter ends. The defensive lineman of Indie everybody, they're like laughing with him, they're chilling with him. He goes up and Pat's a guy in the Colt's ass,
you know what I mean? Like that, if you've ever played, like on a real competitive sports team, you know those kinds of guys on your team, and that has a real impact. That's not gonna be on some angle or some trend. And I don't think the Dolphins, are you know, all of a sudden gonna real off six in a row, all right? But they will pick after the Bengals. They will pick after the Washington football team. They may even pick after both New York teams. They'd be, you know,
jeopardizing that first overall pick. Oh, which, by the way, can we say it's not gonna be too Maybe it'll be Joe Burrow after what we saw over the weekend. But in any event, I digress and listen, we talk about this, right, Miami wins Atlanta one, the Jets one Cleveland one. It makes me think anything can happen. But we gotta watch out now because these guys will play each other for the last pick, you know, like the Giants play Washington, right, um, since he plays Miami, since
he plays the Jets. The Jets will play Miami again. So those are the games. That's why the Snoopy Bowl was such a big time and loss for the Giants. I guess, but I digress. Also, here's another takeaway for me. The players who were traded over the last month or so or really having impacts for their teams. Look at what happened over the last couple of weeks with these players like Marcus Peters gets traded from the Rams and Ravens. He had a pick six yesterday, helping to solidify that
Baltimore defense. Some people were worried about that Baltimore defense. I know that since he isn't like the best, uh you know, the toughest test to show your wears. I understand that. But it looked good with that defense with Marcus Peters being a kind of gambling cornerback on the other side of Marlon Humphrey. Similarly, Minka Fitzpatrick now in Pittsburgh, there were some people that say he could be a defensive Player of the Year candidate. All right, he had
a scoop and score. He has scored multiple touchdowns for the Steelers and like the month he's been there. What about Kenyan Drake. Big effort out of Kenyan Drake in his debut does it again? Leads the Cardinals in rushing as ten carries and many Sanders tonight, listen, many Sanders is something like, uh, seventeen targets in two games. All Right, you may hear me utter a prop bet about Manny Sanders. Um a little bit later on in the show, there's a couple of things that I got right though that
I hope you were with. First one I told you last week Adam VENETTERI the Colts need to move on from Adam Venytari. He missed another extra point alright, that's his sixth missed extra point of the season. And here's one of the things I said last week. Okay, don't worry about that loss of the Dolphins. Yeah, that sucks. But here's what I said last week. I said this, and I heard something new. The Colts are now five
and four. There are four losses have all been a touchdown or less, seven to Oakland, six to the Charges, to to Pittsburgh, and four yesterday to Miami. Their wins have all been by less than a touchdown. They beat the Titans by two, the Falcons by three, k c by six, Denver by two. That every single game they have played has been a touchdown or less. Guess what you need in those kinds of games a kicker that will come up clutch for you. I told you I got that one right, and they need to do something
about this. This could come back to bite them in the ass in the clutch playoff run or in the playoffs. I also told you about the Rams herd and their hangover, asked Jilly Dilley, I've been fading the Rams all season long. They now have they could be three games back of the NFC West, And then you got, oh, I don't know. Even if Seattle loses tonight they go to seven and three, Minnesota's in a wild card. At seven and three, the Rams are two games back of that. I think the
hangover is real. And I also told you about the herd. I told you I answered all these questions last week about Robert Woods this, Robert Woods that, and I said, what why why are we all off Robert Woods. This is a herd At any given time, it could be Woods this week and it was seven for Gerald Everett goes eight for sixty eight zero though from Cooper Cup. That is the definition of a herd. I told you
about the Rams herd all season long. All right, there's a couple of other things, like right, a couple of other things I got wrong. We'll cover those and then we will put week ten to bed, will turn the page, and we'll look to week eleven for the waiver wire, because we've gotta help people when their leaves and win that cash its episode four hundred and sixteen. Hit me with questions in the chat room. We got a pole question, I'll ask you as well. All sorts of stuff here
with the stats over beat cipher. Come on back Fantasy Freestyle. You heard I want to light the lamp on Draft Kings and FanDuel this NHL DFS season.

We talked about the news and notes, the updates, the injuries, and we told you that Colin Drew bang them all four hundred and twenty thousand dollars already last night. And let me all right, so we I told you about Minitary. I think it's a problem. I told you about the rams Herd. Listen. I have Cooper Cup in a lot of places, and I took bagels. All right. I still might win a matchup where I have Cooper Cup, uh starting,
but we'll see about that um a little bit later on. Also, listen, I was telling you for weeks going into this Jets Giants matchup. I told you The one bet I was definitely going to make was I was gonna find the sacks prop and I was gonna take the over. And the sacks prop was five and a half. I took the over last time I checked six, which is how many of the Giants allowed, and to which se many of the Jets allowed. That equals eight, and last time I checked, eight was over five and a half. I
told you it was pretty much. I don't use the term lock, but it was a bet that I felt really good about. What I didn't know as the impact it was gonna have on the run game as well. I mean se Kwan ran for one yard, Left Bell ran for thirty four yards. They combined to go thirty one carries for thirty five yards. In contrast, Sam Donald and Danny Dimes ran the ball six times for forty
five yards. But this run game, the sacks, the impotence of the run game, and the need for the QB too scramble, these are all factors of the same thing. These offensive lines are blunt, guts trash. All right. Here's what I got wrong, though, and I gotta admit there was a few things I got wrong. First of all, what the Tennessee Titans, and more specifically, Derrick Henry did put it in my eye for real. I mean, I was thinking that Kansas City with Patty Mahomes back, my
game flow, game script, Derrick Henry out of it. I thought Tannehill might have to become one of those volume throwers. That was not the case, all right, Um Tannehill only thirteen of nineteen. They kept it conservative because Derrick Henry was able to bang them, and they still won the game by putting up over thirty points. Derrick Henry with a hundred eighty eight yards and two touchdowns. He's entering, he's in a contract your people, He's it's gonna be
very interesting to see what he's got going on. I also thought A J. Brown and John lu Smith were gonna be where it was concentrated because I thought they'd be throwing. I was wrong. A J. Brown only one catch for seventeen yards. I also listened. I was definitely wrong about the damn Atlanta Falcon Saints game, right, but then again, so was everybody. A very popular Survivor pick was the New Orleans Saints Maddie Ryan, though five, again
not the volume thrower. The run game now with Brian Hill thirty carries nine yards, okay, and then look at the flip side. Okay. Um New Orleans combines for nine carries for thirty six yards. After Latin Murray was running so well with Alvin Kamara back Breeze throwing the ball forty five attempts. It's again this thing. It's almost like forty attempts. Is that kind of line. What's good for the real team is not good for the fantasy team. A lot of times that fantasy you want your quarterback
volume throwing, not the case. I was also wrong on Prime Time Kirk Cousins and the Road Vikings. Listen, I thought that I was leaning towards Dallas in that Sunday night game because I say that Cousins can't do jack on the road. You put it in my eye. Two twenty yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions with Stable. Was not
this volume thrower. You ain't gotta be when you have the league's leading rusher and Dalvin Cook another nineties seven yards, Madison running good as well, and I this road defense, you know, I thought they always played much better in Minnesota, but they slowed Zeke Elliott as well, limiting him to less than fifty yards on the ground. And listen to Vikings now at seven and three, they are in a decent spot. They also only have two more games on the road all season long. They got full four home
games up in Minnesota. Minnesota is sitting pretty in the north end in the wild card. Alright, let's go to the waiver wire. Let's turn the page a little bit and look to the waiver wire. Um, you know, not a ton of injuries, right. We talked about Davante Freeman, we talked about Ty Johnson, and so then you see they're kind of quote unquote next men up as waiver ads. All right, Brian Hill is only owned in three percent of leagues. If he's in for Freeman, if there no Freeman,
you absolutely want to give this guy a shot. He may be worth it anyway, because remember Edo Smith is already on I R. He's only three percent owned. Brian Hill will be and should be a high priority waiver ad this week. J D McKissick is the answer. In Detroit. Listen, I told you about j D McKissick about a week ago when I was doing the ads in place of
carry On Johnson. I said, it looks like Ty but I actually thought J. D. Mckissic had more juice, and especially in PPR formats, he is the past catching back. Now Ty Johnson goes down in the concussion protocol, This is all j D. Mckissic. He's only owned in leagues. You can probably go out and get him, and I recommend that you do the other guys. Listen, there's some guys that I think have been ascending. I've been telling you about for a while. They're owned in about three
quarters of leagues. But it's worth a check. Kareem Hunt at Ronald Jones, I continue to tell about him. He scored another touchdown. Kareem Hunt was a part of the Browns um so at seven two, they're worth a check. And then, don't forget guys coming off bys may have been dropped because their owners were painted into a corner of Miles Sanders, Carlos Hide, Royce Freeman, all guys owned in sev leagues, but worth the look if you need.
Let's look at wide receiver position. At the wide receiver position, here's the thing. One of the big ads is uh Darius Slayton, and listen, Slayton went off against me in a league Okay, a league that I am going to lose in. I was facing Slayton and I know he had a huge game, But here's the thing they gotta buy next week. And then there's the chance that Sterling Shepherd comes back after the bye. There's the chance that
a guy like Ingram comes back after the bye. Okay, So I don't know that Slayton's piece of the pie is gonna be the same the next time he's out there. So I'm a little lukewarm on him. Ben out there before mentioned D D. Westbrook. You know, sure, but Jacksonville has the bye, okay, and and he should be back. But I'm not positive what it's gonna like with Nick Foles under center. Okay, if this was still Minshew, maybe, but I gotta see what this team looks like. I
don't know. Depending on your other options, I wouldn't automatically go to D D. Westbrook, Ben, I would not go there based on the options you have. I was surprised to see that this guy, though, is only owned in fifty of league, so in half of leagues you can go out right now. This is the guy also like D. D. Westbrook coming off injury and his team just had a bye. I'm talking about will Fuller. Guys. Will Fuller is now only owned in of league, so in half a leagues
you can go out and get him. And word is that he may be back after the team's by. Worth a look other guys again after the bye. Worth a check. Mohamed Sano of League, Scary, Terry McClellan, um McLaurin Stent of leagues. Worth the check. Christian Kirk also, I was surprised to see, even after his huge game, another kind of thing, he was coming back from the bye. All right, um at tight end and listen, Hooper got banged out. You have Kittle who's hurt. You're gonna have guys on
by next week. Next week we go back to I believe it's four teams on the buy next week week eleven, you've got Green Bay, Tennessee, the Giants and Seattle on buy. So you may lose a guy like Jimmy Graham or someone. Let's say, you know, we don't know about Hooper, we don't know about Kittle as well. So here are some guys. Listen, Kyle Rudolph, I know he had the big time game. He's owned in thirty percent of leagues. I'm not really
on him. I think that was his best game of the season, you know, probably his only two touchdown game, and eventually, and don't don't forget Adam Feeling should be coming back. Don't forget Irv Smith is also now a part of that passing game as the second tight end, the rookie out of Alabama. I'm not so sure. I think this was his pop off game for Kyle Rudolph. I wouldn't expect that to be the new norm um. Darren Fells is a guy. He was hot. Listen. Three
touchdowns in his last two games. I buy that. But remember I just said will Fuller maybe coming back. He's not a guy I'm looking to. I don't mind Jack Doyle at listen. I tell him you it's a touchdown kind of thing, right and as long as t Y Hilton's not there, maybe he gets some extra targets. I'm okay with that if you need it. O J. Howard had his big, biggest day, kind of of the year, right, got into the end zone seven targets. Is this a sign of more to come? Or is it a one off?
I'm not trying to grab O J. Howard thinking that this is gonna be like what he's doing in the second half of the season. But if you're in a really bad spot, right Kittle, Hooper Ingram Graham, if you had like two of those guys, I can understand taking the shot out there. And then one I'll give you is coming off a by you know again, bargain basement kind of thing. Is no offense. No offense is only but you have no security blanket with the kids stepping in,
there could be an idea. And I will just let everybody know that the deadline for someone to declare themselves as eligible for this year is November. A Rob gronkows you. I'm looking at you. He's owned in four percent of leagues. I don't think it's gonna happen, but if it ever were to, it would be happening in the next two weeks. What I also want to do, here's what we're gonna do. Um either now or maybe we'll save it for the
Thursday show. I also did a little bit of a look because listen, we only got three weeks of the regular season left, right, so either if we have time in this show after the break, or I'll save it for Thursday's show. I did a little bit of looking at weeks fourteen, fifteen, and sixteen for defenses. Okay, and
it depends on your record. But if you pop out and after ten weeks you're like eight and two and you think, not only do you have a playoff spot, but you're sitting pretty and you think you're gonna be one of those two teams that get a buy and you ain't gotta worry about it until week fifteen, you may want to start looking at some of the defenses that have good matchups. All right, and so I broke some of those down. I'll give you a little bit
of insight to weeks fourteen, fifteen, and sixteen. I really think you can only do this move this proactively if you also think you're gonna get a bye. But we'll talk about that a little bit. I also want to talk with our status over beats Cipher, my man Danny Otto. We're gonna honor one of our you know, on one of our veterans, and then we'll talk about Monday night football as well. If you want to holler at the spitting statistician Danny, we can open the phone lines as well.
The number to call is eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine. Once again, the number to call is eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine. We'll open up the phone lines if you want to talk to the spitting statistician Will Uh. We'll talk a little Veterans Day, We'll talk a little Monday Night football. We'll see how we're doing in the stats over Beats League as well. All that and more on

My twices are Kyler Murray, Josh Jacobs, Danny Dimes or a guy playing in about oh half an hour, Nick Boza.
What's interesting is that my co host on Sunday, the Lovely and talented Ariel Epstein retweeted it was like this one is mad easy strong style was like, yo, it's definitely Jacobs, and you know, Ariel thinks it's real easy also. But right now Josh Jacobs has, Nick Boza has thirty nine, and then Kyler murraya distant third at eighteen. It's pretty split, so I don't think it's that big of a runaway, but I digress. Billy Hayes, who's in my GST league.
Shout out to him and everybody in gst. He mentioned also Darius Guice. I had him on my list as waiver wire ads as well. He's owned in about thirty seven percent of leagues, and they expect him back this week against the Jets. Listen, the Washington football team is turning the page alright. Dwayne Haskins will be under center, and I think they are gonna see as much as they can on Darrecus. Guys, they gotta know what they have in the kid. Okay, everyone thinks he could be dynamic.
Can he hold up to the rigors of a season. They're gonna run him out there. I think they go to give him a good long look. So that's a nice little spot there. At only thirty seven percent owned, I recommend it, it's worth a check. Razor is in the chat room asking me about Brita or Coleman. To be quite honest, the answer is both, all right. I'm happy with both of them. This offensive line has been plugged in play. They get their offensive tackles back, they
get their all pro fullback Kyle Use check back tonight. Listen, We've seen San Francisco enforced they will in the run game before. Will they be able to do it again? Tonight. I'll let you know at the end of the show. Um, but I'm cool with Brita R. Coleman raiser. If I had to pick one, it's gonna be a little tough for me. And Billy Hayes will tell you I'm prejudiced right now, Okay, because in this league we're talking about, I've got like a twenty one lead. I'm facing Adam Rownus,
who we all know and love. He's got Russell Wilson, which sucks, right, So if I can get Russell Wilson again, maybe like twenty and have that gap which possible against like the San Fran defense, right, maybe that even self out. But then he also has Matt Breda and I have Keevin Coleman, So my opinion is gonna be clouded by that, but both of them should be able to do some work. And then Perry Yang has asked me about David Johnson. What do you do with DJ? At this point, you
bench DJ? You don't drop him, but I would be comfortable benching David Johnson. All right, Danny, listen, it's Veterans Day, right, and you know we have our own veteran here in the status over beats Cipher as you know, Um, and last year at about this time, Danny, I don't know if you remember, but last year at about this time, we interviewed Danny Lee from the undisclosed location. You remember that, Danny, I do remember that. So I wanted to remind everybody
this was, you know, my man was in UM. He gave me the name of it, Operation Inherent Resolve with the Air Force. He was literally in his un disclosed location in the desert in the barracks. It was like three am. And if you remember, Danny brought his boy with him, Boom Boom with him as well. And this is you know, I remember saying, we thank Danny Lee, We thank all the veterans for what they do so
we can do what we do. I want to remind everybody about a how football, fantasy football brings people together and be what we're thankful for here on Veterans Day. Danny. Let me see the first clip of last time. This is about a year ago, me interviewing Danny Lee from the status will beat Cipher from the on disclosed location. That's crazy, all right, So then they will remember this. Danny Boom boom pal pal up at the base. It was like three am, my man got into fatigues and
ready to go. Um. That was a touching moment last year. And it ended with we'll play the last one. Danny. I almost forgot that they were like at war and I was at the end. I was like, you know, tell your wife and your and your kids that you love them or whatever it is, that Daddy will be home soon. Play that one, and I think it's the las As clip of the four when they you know, you see that they're at war. This is the sacrifice veterans make. Um. And I thought it was so interesting. Yeah,
there you go. That's right. Boom boom bilal Pal Pal and Danny Lee. Of course, remember this was Operation Inherent Resolved that our boy Danny Lee was a part of. I just want to give a shout out once again. Uh not only did Danny Lee to anybody who has been in the service and for for our freedom. You know.
The funny part is like where over here I'm talking about like, you know, a prop bet for Manny Sanders, or I'm leaning under on this game, or you need to start you know, you need to start, Kenny Golladay. But it's we get to you know, revel in this kind of fun stuff because of guys like Danny Lee protecting our freedom. And you know it was funny, Danny, Yeah, it's something I really think it's funny. Um, he was talking about saying hello to his little daughter. If did
you hear that in the clip? Danny did? And then remember we've also since then sent put out a picture of him in his living room with his daughter dancing around to baby Shark. You know what I mean. So that's the stats over Beat Cipher at is at his finest. Dexter Rojas. No, you don't drop David Johnson. You just stashed him on the bench. I agree with Guru, I said a little bit early on Lance Davis saying absolutely
made wings of liberty never lose a feather. But you guys know about how I feel about stats over Beat Cipher. I even heard later earlier up in the chat room this idea that my man John G got his friendship bread. Jilly Dilley was saying, she's thankful. Um, you know, Danny, she's thankful that John G got his bread. Hope they enjoyed it. But here's the thing, Danny, Jilly Dilley wins again. All right, Jilly Dilley is gonna go to nine and one after beating Jeremy McMahon this week and Team in Hands.
I'm sorry, I know you're probably blown one down there, Jeremy, But Jilly Dilley is gonna go to nine and one. And here's the thing, so is John G and the Tampa picks six. They are gonna go to nine and one after beating Rolling with Mahomies. So Danny, the rich keep getting richer. It's getting real tied up top Julie dilleon John G both at nine and one with that also means, though, is that all these teams that got like six, five even four wins are still live, including you, Danny,
looks like you got a w in this week. I did the curse strong Style, right, yeah, the curse of me going one and one in my yes continues to this week. Absolutely, So listen, Jilly Dilley gets another w against Jeremy McMahon. John G gets another w. But that means, Danny, listen, if you hold off Strong Style, which I think you will, um, I think you will. I mean you're up by a ton. I know Strong Style does have uh some players, right, I think he's got like Tevin Coleman left, but ain't
gonna make up that. I still don't think he's gonna make up that much. I mean, strong style got screwed. Had like Cameron making America braid in there and O. J. Howard popped off at Dion Lewis in there. Get a zero because you know, uh, Derrick Henry went off. I'm gonna lose again though. All right, so I'm gonna be like Twiling in last place of this league. All of y'all are gonna be able to say that should beat
the spitting statistician. I will say, though, it looks like Mendel Bruce and his fugazzes are gonna lose as well. At this point, all I need to do is finished, Adam Mendough, you know, to prove that I was about the fugazes at least, but especially if Jilly Dilley or John g who says he listens here to help him win that league and winna cash. If one of these guys, when you know it's still Diamonds winning over fugazes, you know what I'm saying. Danny, Yeah, thank you for the analysis.
That was. That was that was, you know, incredible analysis right there, Danny. I like what you're doing. But um so we got our status of Beats League and it was good to see that again. Right Um the Danny Lee thing, you know, the entire cipher is really a family out there, John g getting his bread, Danny Lee's daughter bouncing a baby shark. It's big things. But we've got a football game to finish off Week ten, all right. The Seattle Seahawks are getting sick and a half points.
The total started in like the forty four's, it's gone up. It's now forty seven. I'm staring a forty seven and a half. Here's the thing I mentioned before. Will San Francisco be able to enforce their will tonight? This is a team with a hundred and thirty three point differentials so far this season. Only the Patriots are better. They're even better than the Baltimore Ravens in terms of their
point differential. But I don't know who they've played, you know, we don't know if they've really played the upper echelon. Their schedule is gonna get a lot harder, and it starts tonight. To be quite frank, this is a great matchup, Okay, on the one side, I'm like, yeah, San Franz getting their offensive lining back, getting use checked back. But on the other side, they won't have George Kittle to kind of, you know, open up the offense for them. So what
do you do? The San Francisco defense has been dominant, but they have not faced the dude like Russell Wilson, who's the m v P twenty three touchdowns, one interception, making plays left than right. So how do you play this game? I think this is an incredible matchup. I am gonna lean towards Seattle in this one. Okay, road teams or something, I mean underdogs or something like fifty cent so far in the entire NFL season. I'll take the six and a half points, I think since San
Francisco may win the game. But I don't see San fran or anybody blowing out Russell Wilson these days. Okay. If whether it's a backdoor being open or him making plays that he will need to make, I do think Russell keeps it close enough, they may win out right, Okay, I think Seattle is coming along, And be honest, this may sound crazy, but Russell Wilson is here and everybody talking about all. Lamar Jackson should be m v P all.
Lamar Jackson is amazing. I think in a national spot in prime time, in a huge matchup, Russell Wilson will be like, oh yeah, hold my beer. Watch what I do against who everybody thinks is the best defense in the league and the only undefeated team. I'm worried about that because that would hurt my fantasy team. But I can't go against Russell Wilson at this point, especially the Niners without Kittle, and they are stepping up in class, both in terms of the offense they're going against um
and in terms of the defense they're going against. And then without Kitto, I'm not so sure. I do think. Also, both of these teams are run heavy. Both of these teams are slower paced. So I'm leaning Seattle and I'm leaning under the forty seven and a half points in terms of prop bets without Kittle. Here's where I'm going. I got two prop bets for you. First of all, I'm going Matt Brida, and this is a little bit
of my fantasy heads, you know what I mean. I'm playing against Matt Brita, So I'm gonna take the over. Matt Brida scrimmage yards rushing and receiving. So if he blows up, I lose my fantasy matchup, but I'll win my prop bet. But I do think Brita could be the recipient and the beneficiary of no Kiddle, and I like Brita to get over fifty six and a half combined yards. I also like Manny Sanders. With no Kiddo, you gotta figure Manny Sanders will be the primary target,
and since he's come over, he's been targeted. I think it's like seven eight times a game, and I think that will be even more without Kidds. So give me Brita over fifty six and a half combined yards, give me Manny Sanders over four and a half receptions without George Kittle. There they got some weird chemistry already, and I'll take it to the bank. Um, although I am leaning with the m v P, especially if you give me six and a half points. All right, we'll be
there to talk about it on Thursday. It'll be episode four seventeen and we'll see Jilly Dilley and John g will be nine and one. It's ridiculous, Uh, you know what it is? Come on back, hit me up. NFL season is an alp hada, so you can be on the eighth person to win one million dollars in a Fandueler Draft Kings tournament. My senor lineup using the Daily

That freeman, you know, he left the game and went
to Brian Hill who started to do work. Will his name be in my waiver wire? Diamonds and food Gates is a little bit later on, Matthew Stafford missed that game with the back right. They're now exploring if the Lions were above board and fully transparent with that, or did they know a little bit earlier. But here's what I'm gonna say, the same thing I say for a guy like a J. Green. You know, if Matthew Stafford now the Lions are three five and one? Why why?
You know? Now, I get it, that's a little bit different than a J. Green and the Bengals at like oh and nine. But you know, let's not rush right back. It's the same as like Cam Newton. Why rushed right back? I don't know what we're gonna see with Matthew Stafford. Here's the other point. This now makes sixteen of the thirty two NFL teams that have had to go to at least two quarterbacks this year. It is a fifty fifty proposition, y'all. Okay, six teams have had to go
to their third string quarterback. Okay, literally six teams. The Indianapolis Colts have gone to Brian Hoyer. You remember Andrew luck was there QB one, then Brissette Gardner, Minshew all right, uh David fuck uh Hodges, Delvin Hodges. We got now Haskins is going to start the rest of the year. Brandon Allen in Denver. Okay, this is now sixteen teams after league you had to go to at least their QB two. You know, I mean, could Tampa be on the horizon in a similar situation? And this makes me
think Will Lamar Jackson last. Now, I think, and I've been saying it, you know, for weeks. I think is he is a deserving co favorite, one of the quarterbacks that's gonna kick off in about an hour, right, but one hit and it's over uber r G three. Like That's why to me, it's so incredible what Russell Wilson does right, because it's not like a Deshaun Watson and Aaron Rodgers some of these amazing quarterbacks that just can't get through the season. You know, what does that mean
for a guy like Kyler Murray? What does that mean? For a guy like Baker Mayfield? What does that mean? You know, whether it's Mitch or whether it's Sammy d Will, these guys all make it through to be able to develop as a quarterback. It is literally a fifty fifty proposition. Ty Johnson out with the concussion. He's in the concussion protocol. That looks like it's usually a one week kind of injury. We'll see about that one. Austin Hooper getting an m R I on his knee, that is a name to watch.
Remember Hooper has sort of been ascending into one of those matchup proofs tight ends. Remember I say the tight ends are pretty much like a touchdown crap shoot, like do they get into the end zone or not like Jack Doyle did against me in the league, or are they truly one of the top guys, you know, one of the top oh, I don't know at this point, like six or seven guys. And Hooper was pushing to be in there, but then he's gonna be banged out right now with a knee. Talk about another knee for
another tight end. They have announced George Kittle is in fact inactive tonight. Be sure to follow all our social media at EV and t s Y Sportsnet and at EV and t s Y Radio and now I'm tweeting about you.
