Later on in the show when we open up the phone lines and hear your questions at eight four four eight four three six, eight seven nine. Here's what we're gonna do today. We got a lot of stuff to do, all right. We're gonna do waiver wire ads for week thirteen. There's a couple of people that
are definitely gonna be added a lot. I get to use a nickname that I haven't used in a while. I'm very excited to talk about my man, Pop Quiz Jock Quiz Rogers. Here's what we're also gonna do. I'm gonna recap Monday Night Football. I was pretty spot on on Monday Night Football. We'll talk about that a little bit later. I was pretty spot on. But those guys in Vegas do it so well. We'll talk about what I mean a little bit later on if we have time.
We're gonna play that rat parody by Young Kas the effect. I've been waiting and dropped that on you guys for a couple of days now. Hopefully we will do that as well. We all pull questions up for what your waiver wire ad you want. But at the same time, we have breaking news here in the last couple of hours word has crossed that the Giants are benching Eli Manning and they're going with Geno Smith this Sunday in
Oakland against the Raiders. This will be snapping the two hundred and ten game consecutive start streak of Eli Manning. But what I think it is, it's the Giants officially waiving the white flag. But why are they going to Geno Smith instead of the kid Davis Webb. If they were going to the kid wanting to see what they had and the kid, I would understand this, especially if it was like Patty mahomes back behind them or something like this, I would understand this. In fact, though there
instead going to Geno Smith. You know, Geno Smith is not part of the future of this franchise. You know, Geno Smith does not give you a better chance to win than borderline Hall of Famer Eli Manning. A lot of people here in the New York area feel that Eli is being incredibly disrespected, even though Eli then come out. It came out and released a statement saying that he was involved in this decision, continuing to be class for that organization. Let me tell you something, Ben McAdoo has
tried this a number of times. Suspending guys in the back in the secondary for random weeks. Now they're going away from Eli Manning. The Giants are a sinking ship. Get off now. If you're Sterling Shepherd, if you have Evan Ingram, it is time to cut bait because Geno Smith isn't gonna do what I understand. He's got a decent matchup against the Raiders, but I am not on it. When we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle News and Notes, my recap of Monday night football waiver ads and your calls,
come on back Fantasy Freestyle, Let's go pay. I'm Ranks Standfel 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 than you are going to the Big Game in Minnesota on February fourth. How do we get involved? Keep listening to the fantasy sports radio networks every day and to find out what we're playing the showtime changes. To make sure you're always
locking loaded and you can be into. Just make sure you listen to the fantasy sports works in your network every day up until the Big Game because we're trying to get away tickets for you in Minnesota. It's a Big Game Trivia Challenge sponsored by d k MS, only on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Dame Martinez Speed that spitting Statustasi and holding you down. On a Tuesday, we got a big show. I'm telling you,
we gotta recap Monday Night Football. I gotta talk about my waiver wire ads for week thirteen. We want to get young cars in the effect in their rap poer aready on board. But then we got to talk about Geno Smith in for Eli Manning. Eli Manning get started for the Giants two hundred and ten games in a row. In the NFC East, every team has had ten quarterbacks start in that span. The Cleveland Browns, I've had twenty four quarterbacks in that span. I don't really know what
the Giants are hoping to achieve here. If they went to Davis Webb, that would be one thing. I understand that this point listen to season is shot. You want
to go to the kids, see what you have. The Giants are gonna be drafted in the top five this year, you know next year coming up right, and if I'm the Giants, I need to know do I need to use that pick for a quarterback Josh Rosen, Sam Donald, Josh Allen, or do I need to use that pick on another offensive lineman to help boost this line because I believe that maybe Davis Webb can be a guy, or maybe I know I need to go and try to get Tyrod Taylor or Alex Smith or something like
that in the off season. So I'm okay if they went to Davis Webb, but they're going to Geno Smith instead. You know, Geno Smith does not give you a great chance to win. You know what Geno Smith is. I understand you want to say like, oh, we don't want to have Davis Webb get hurt back there, but you are right riding out. You know your franchise Eli Manning at the beginning of the year when he was behind
the same you know, blunt, guts, trash offensive line. I don't get it, but I will say this, Eli Manning continues to be class personified. Here is the statement that Eli Manning released and I quote coach McAdoo told me I could continue to start while Gino and Davis are given an opportunity to play. My feeling is that if you are going to play the other guys, just play them starting to starting, just to keep the streak going and knowing you won't finish the game and have a
chance to win it. That's pointless to me, and it tarnishes the streak. Like I always have, I will be ready to play if and when I am needed. I will help Geno and Davis prepare to play as well as they possibly can. We also have audio, okay, we also have audio from Eli Manning today, Bavona. Do we have that queue up and ready? We have audio where Eli Smith Eli Manning is being asked about it. You
can hear him continuing to like be a professional. You can also hear him literally choking back tears, knowing that this is the last time he may he may never start from the New York Giants again. Play that sound for me, Christ How hard is this hitting you emotionally? That's our our our day the handle list, but uh, you know, hanging there and figure it out of the hardest days of Giant it's up there. Yeah. Do you feel like you might have started your last game for
the Giants. I don't know. I don't know more one week at a time, last one have you spoken to anyone besides spanned without decision Jerry or John everything like that. Uh, spoke with Jerry, reached a little deft and uh Mr Barrah had been in today and uh, but you know he knows what's going on. And um sometime Eli man and putting on a good face for it, being the good soldier, being a team player, being a professional. Yet
I agree with a lot of Giants fans. I'm seeing them walk around right here, people literally acting to me questions through the glass. He read Studio thirty four about
Eli Manning. I think he's getting a raw deal. I think he's been getting a raw deal for a couple of years when they decided to sign Brandon Marshall instead of spending that money on offensive lines to protect him when the window was still open for about a year or two, if they protected him in the right way, I'm telling you right now, I think Eli Manning is moving on. I think he's going down to Jacksonville. If
you want to know the gods on his truth. There is more news and not to keep to leave and Michael Crabtree. They are suspended for two games for the fighting and the chain snatching that happened. They are appealing their decisions. My bet it might get reduced to one game, but you will still be without Michael Crabtree this weekend. The Raiders will also be without Amari Cooper as he
is still in the concussion protocol. When I give up my DFS line up a little bit later on in the week, I think that creates opportunities for other members of the Oakland Raiders against this team, the Giants, which is obviously mantling it in. In other quarterback news, Jimmy Garoppolo is gonna start for the San Francisco forty Niners against Chicago this week in Chicago. I think you had to do it, you know, as long as he knew the playbook and was ready. You saw him coming there
in relief of CJ. Beat Hard when Beatheart got got injured, and uh, you know, CJ was a little bit upset that the fans were cheering when he got hurt because they were bringing in Jimmy g It looks like the Garoppolo era is starting in San Francisco Week thirteen of the season once again. Bruce Arians has said that Blaine Gabbett could be his starter in two thousand and eighteen.
He could be a bridge to something if Carson Palmer does indeed retire, putting a little bit of extra high stakes on the Arizona Cardinals for the rest of the season. Blame Gabbett playing maybe for a starting job next year. Jordan Reid did not practice today. Remember the Washington football team plays on Thursday, as they kick off Week thirteen against the Cowboys. He has not practiced for the last five weeks. Looks like he's gonna miss his fifth game
in a row. I don't know why you would rely on Jordan Read whether you are Washington or if you are a fantasy owner. And also I want to tip our cap here at the fantasy freestyle and the stats overbeat Cipher to Darren McFadden. Darren McFadden announced his retirement today. Dallas released him over the weekend. He had an interesting ten year career, had a good year about two years ago with Dallas, had another good year. I think back in the day with Oakland, Darren McFadden was a boss
in college at Arkansas. So we we're gonna pour a little bit out and tip our cap for Darren McFadden. All Right, yesterday we had Monday Night football. The Ravens beat the Texans. It was sixteen final. At the end of the show last night, I said I thought the Ravens would win this game. They won the game twenty three sixteen. Your boys spitting speeds was pretty close. But you know what, I ain't as good as these guys in Vegas. It was a twenty three sixteen game. You know,
the Ravens were seven point favorites. They won by seven. That's thirty nine points. The total in this game was thirty eight and a half. They set these lines pretty good. Let me tell you something. Uh, I was right on a few things. Okay, Alex Collins is still the lead back for the Baltimore Ravens, but Danny Woodhead is gonna cut into Buck Allen's production. Buck Allen did get into the end zone, and that's sake of his night if you were starting Buck Allen. But Danny Woodhead had four
runs and four catches. Buck Allen only had one reception out of the backfield. I think more and more Danny Woodhead, as long as he stays healthy, will be growing. I also had my diamond and the rough for this game was Mike Wallace. I hope you went Mike Wallace instead of Jeremy Macklin. Wallace had five catches for forty eight an average game, but Jeremy Macklin only one catch for six yards. Hopefully you listen to speeds and realize that
Wallace was the better option over Jeremy macklan. But let me tell you something, these Baltimore Ravens, it's like they're allergic to throw the ball downfield. Jon Gruden was saying it on the telecast. He said he really likes this team. He loves their defense, likes their run game with the Irish Dancer, loves their special teams. He spent about a quarter and a half, you know, swooning over the Ravens special teams. Coach. But let me tell you something. They
are not able to throw the ball. If they could get a passing attack, this team would be dangerous. Instead, I don't think they're a true contender. If they do make it, and I think they're one and done. On the other side, listen, DeAndre Hopkins is a man amongst boys. Seven catches for a hundred twenty five yards. He was getting grabbed and held the entire time. His jersey was literally ripped after shreds. But he's still making plays and then he will continue to do so. Next week they
have the Tennessee Titans. Boyd, I like that matchup for a guy like DeAndre Hopkins. But let me tell you something, Man Vegas, they know what they're doing. They had the spread right on, they had the total right on. It is a problem. I told you, however, that um Andre Ellington is the guy I would have used the trick on. Bovona told us from down in the fantasy dungeon that he was not active. But I what I realized though, is they want no part of Alfred Blue as the
second running back there. I don't think they want any part of Alfred Blues. So I do think Andre Ellington does have a role when he is ready for these Houston Texans. All right, here's what we gotta do, Chris. We gotta do some of our game of inches nominees. All right, I know we're up against the break, but I gotta start my game of inches nominees. We're gonna finish them up on the other side of the break. And then what we'll also do is we will give
you my waiver wire thoughts going into week thirteen. I got a lot of people that I think are worth your waiver wire priority worth whatever you have left in your that budget. We'll get to that. Um Hey, Bavona checked this out. My man West's the deal. He lost by point to six, even though he had Big Ben and Antonio Brown combined for sixty one points. He had Doug Baldwin, though, who was one of the full gazes of week twelve. Is that a game of inches? He
lost by twenty six points. What about Giovanni Colaro? He lost by one point and he had Tom c had Tom Savage. You threw that last pick and that's what he lost by. He had DeAndre Hopkins, but still felt just short because of that Savage game interception that Ice did for the Baltimore Ravens. What about c W. Mitchell. C W. Mitchell lost by one and a half points.
He was only needed point six or one and a half points to win, and had Jeremy Macklin who only had one catch for six yards, only got point six and still lost. What about Eduardo Gimmarari He was tied, literally really tied down to the hundredth of a point at halftime of this game, but he was facing Justin Tucker who had a couple of field goals and beat
him towards the end. Those are pretty good. I got what I think should be the winner, and I'll share that with you in Bovona, you know, and make a decision when we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Come on right back. We're gonna crown a winner. Hunter, Henry Sterling, Shepherd, Michael Thomas. These three NFL softwares are not to do a slump.
They're due to break out. Just like the Fantasy Sports Radio Network in year two, things are only getting better. Make sure Limps Live and deell 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. Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here in the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I was going through some hashtag game of inches nominees.
My Man West the deal lost by a quarter of a point even though we had Big Ben and Antonio Brown put up over sixty for him. On Sunday Night Aaron Seagrest. He was down by twenty eight going into Sunday Night Football. Antonio Brown killed it for him and he won by four? Was it? Giovanni Callierro lost by only one point because of that Tom Savage interception at
the end of Monday Night Football? What about c W. Mitchell was down by one point six and only got point six from Jeremy Macklin on Monday Night Football because Macklin was a fool gazzy forgot about him. Should have listened to me. I knew that Mike Wallace was gonna pop instead of Jeremy Macklin. Eduardo Gimmiari was tied, literally tied one seventy four point thirty eight at the half, down to the hundredth of a point. Still lost to Justin Tucker for putting through some field goals in the
second half. What about this one though? Chris Max Lawton out there on Twitter, big shout out to Max one by seven tenths of a point and was health because he was facing Lamar Miller. I don't know if you saw, but Lamar Miller got injured and banged up in the second quarter, missed the entire second quarter. Then came back for the second half. If Lamar Miller was healthy the whole game, Max Lawton would have lost, but instead one by seven tenths of a point because of the injury.
And then we have and then we have a very last minute one. My guy at Big Vag on Twitter hits me up all the time, just hit me up literally. I think. I don't know if it's past the deadline or not, but Big Vag he won locked up a playoff. Birth was facing Austin Safarian Jenkins, who had yet another touchdown taken away from him, dropped another touchdown. I gotta, I gotta, you know, I I leaned a little bit towards uh Big Vas. But I don't know. Maybe is
in after the deadline. But I did want to say this, Chris is Austin Safarian Jenkins maybe like the post a child for a hashtag game of inches this year. I mean, he's had a number of things. The touchdown that became a fumble and a touchback. He had a touchdown this week taken away by instant replay. It feels to me like the Rastafari King Hali Selassie, I Austin Safari and Jenkins. It's really the post of child. But there's another one.
What about Nelson Aglore. Nelson Agloor has been involved in a couple of these, and this week, if you remember, everything was going right for the Philadelphia Eagles j Gi. He broke a long run and then he fumbled out like the one yard line. The ball trickles into the end zone and who's there to pick it up? Nelson Aghilor if I lost to an opponent, whout Nelson Aghlor and those six points of what beat me? Boy? Would I be piste off and I'd send my hashtag game
of inches to spit and speeds. What do you think, Bivona? Is it Max Lawton who lost? Who won because Lamar Miller was banged up? Is it the field goal kickers? Or is it my guy? What's the deal? Who was facing Austin Sefarian Jenkins and had you know, a touchdown taken away from him and that's why he won and
secured a playoff? Birth What do you think, Manimal, I so badly really wanted to vote for the Justin Tucker really want to know I had this biased thing about the kickers, especially for the sheer fact that I think soon you're not gonna see fantasy football kickers anymore. However you said it, Austin Seferian Jenkins is the poster child game of inches. He had he's someone one in Week six that was actually that was our first. It was so crazy that he had the touchdown and it got
turned back into a touchback. So you're telling me you like Derek Vojinov at big Vas on Twitter, who just hit me up a little while ago that he secured his playoff birth because of the you know, his opponent had a s J who got points taken away with that instant. I have no choice on this one. A s J wins it again. I have a feeling that this guy, whoever one of the is two, whoever wins, they're getting a poster of us Jenkins with the hashtag game of inches. Yeah. I like that. A Big Vas.
If you're listening now, and it sounds like you might be because you're hitting me up on Twitter, I think you need to go and get yourself an Austin Safarian Jenkins fat head. Put it up on your wall, give me a little hashtag Game of Inches on it, and we could definitely use that here on the Fantasy Sports
Radio Network. Check it out though I got a lot of if hey, if you have other ones, you know, if you have other ones that you didn't get in, holler at me and maybe we'll see if we could knock off Big Vas from being the week twelve Game of Inches winner. Question Mark Um, All right, but let's keep it moving here because I know a lot of people tune in on Tuesday to see my thoughts on the waiver wire. So I'm gonna give you my thoughts on the waiver wire. Then we're gonna open up the
phone lines and see what you have to say. Let's see whatever specific questions you have. The number of call is eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine. But before we get to the phones, let me tell you something. We don't usually talk quarterbacks on waiver wires. But listen, Case Keenum only forty six percent owned? Has that Anta? Then Carolina, then Cincinnati, the Green Bay in
the Fantasy Championship. You know, Case Kingdom has been hot, he's got feeling, he's got Digs, he's got McKinnon, he's got Rudolph. I don't understand why he's not owned in more leagues. T Mobile Tyrod Taylor also owned in less than half of leagues. They have New England twice. They have the Indianapolis Colts in Week UH fourteen, a playoff week. T Mobile needs to be owned. He's only owned if you're looking for a quarterback. What taste the matchups New England, Indie,
Miami and New England again, don't get it twisted. Aaron Rodgers might come back. He's only owned in fifty nine percent of leagues. If you want Aaron Rodgers, you could check your league. He might be available. And then I mentioned to you before Jimmy Garoppolo is starting in San Francisco. He's got Chicago, than the Houston, then Tennessee. That's a
nice taste the matchup. But I don't understand how Tyrod Tyrod Taylor is not owned in over fifty of leagues New England, Indie, Miami, New England again the rushing potential. People probably dropped him when he got Ben She is now back in the saddle for Buffalo. Give me Tyrod Taylor or case Keenum at the running back position. Jamal
Williams is only fifty eight percent owned. He is now the lead dog for Green Bay, coming off a good showing against the Pittsburgh Steelers where he got into the end zone via the run and in the passing game at over a hundred thirties scrimmage yards. I like Jamal Williams, you know who. I also like mom Man Pop Quiz Jock Quiz Rogers is back and in Tampa Bay with Dougie Martin going down, I think that Pop Quiz is
actually the guy to own. I know Peyton Barber got in the end zone, but he's the smashing goal line back and he has been that role all season long. Anyway, remember Pop Quiz. At the beginning of the season, a lot of people were calling into the show about him. He's only seven percent owned. I think it is fine to take a flyer on Pop Quiz, Jock Quiz Rodgers. Um Kenyan Drake is the last man standing in Miami. Uh. Damian Williams. It looks like he's out for this week,
so it's gonna be all Kenyan Drake. He's only owned in fifty six for scent of leagues. Half of you can go out and get him right now. And also he's only owned in two percent of leagues. And I don't like it this week because they're playing Philly in that number one run defense. But Mike Davis, he looked as good as any other running back for Seattle all year, and I think they want to go back to him. I don't think it's gonna work on Sunday Night football
against the Philadelphia Eagles. But if you're really desperate, Mike Davis, it could be worse at the wide receiver position. I know we have to talk about this. Josh Gordon is owned and only fifty one percent of leagues. He is unowned in half of leagues. I have been telling you for a long time, A long time ago, we've been talking about this. I don't trust it. If you need to win to get into your fantasy playoffs, are you really gonna trust the guy who has not played a
regular season game since the two thousand and fourteen for Nali. Yes, I know he led the league in receiving yards in two thousand thirteen. Yes, I know he's a dynamic talent. But the guy hasn't been on an NFL field in a regular season game in two years. The I has Deshaun Kaiser throwing him the football. The guy is facing this Los Angeles Chargers defense, which has been hot lately and kay Um and Hayward has been a beast in coverage. I am off Josh Gordon. I'm on Cooper Cup. However,
I told you last week I like Cooper Cup. He went eight for a hundred and sixteen without Robert Woods. There is still no Robert Woods. I still like Cooper Cup. I like him better than say, Zay Jones. I know Zay Jones got in the end zone. I know he was the leading target getter for Buffalo, and I know, listen, I'm off that I just told you how I like Tyrod Taylor. But Zay Jones is not even the main weapon. I like Charles Clay instead. Clay only owned in thirty
two of leaves at the tight end position. If you need a tight end, if you don't want to go back to the Greg Olsen well for example, I like Charles Clay. He is getting back involved. His four catches, his sixt yards receiving lead the team. And I think Tyrod Taylor is comfortable with him at the wide receiver position. Though you know who I do like. I like Martevis Bryant. He's owned in fifty four percent of leagues. Half of you guys can just less than half of you can
go out and get Bryant right now. We don't know about Jujuju simth Schuster and I think, listen, I think this uh Monday night Cincinnati Division game. They know that they're gonna focus on Bell, They're gonna focus on Brown. These are guys who have been popping off. But the Pittsburgh Steelers offense is good enough that three or four people can eat. I like Martevis Bryant if Juju is still not back. D D. Westbrook also only owned in of leagues. I mean he's a good player, but I
don't like the matchup. I don't like I don't like the Jacksonville pass offense. I think this is gonna be back to Leonard four Nett. I think this is gonna be one of those games where Blake Borders only throws it like fifteen times. So I would not want one of the wide receivers so to recap at running back. I want Jamal Williams. I want Pop Quiz Jock Quiz Rodgers, and I want Kenyan Drake at wide out. I do not want Josh Gordon instead, I want Cooper Cup or
Martevis Bryant at tight end. I like Charles Clay. But it's time to recognize. Ricky Seals Jones for two weeks in a row has been an option, the number two options next to Fitzgerald in Arizona. I like him. I think he might be worth a roster spot, but I'm not starting Ricky Seals Jones with your playoffs on the line. All right, here's what we gotta do. Oh but that tight end. Also, O J. Howard's only owned in twenty percent of leagues. They're going away from Cameron Brad. Okay,
Cameron Brad had a relationship maybe with Jamis Winston. It looks like Ryan Fitzpatrick likes him some O J. Howard. They could be trying to phase out break as well, because he's gonna be a free agent at the end of the season. Other than that, it's the names you already know. It's the Tyler Cross, It's the Austin Safari and Jenkins of the world. Um, it's those guys. All right, when we come back, here's we're gonna do. We're gonna hear from you. The number to call is eight four
four eight four three six eight seven nine. The phone lines open right now. I got some people here. What's going on. Guys, Hey, they're one of the stats overbeat Cipher.

Right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network game Martinez speeds
and spitting statistician holding you down. I just gave you some thoughts on the waiver wire. I do not understand how case Keenum or Tyrod Taylor are available. If they are available, scooped them up right now. If you're a playoff team looking for a little bit of a push or a little bit of a you know, kind of a cushion for later on. Aaron Rodgers is unowned and of leagues. I'll tell you that. I'm on Jamal Williams, I'm on Pop Quiz Jock Quiz Rodgers at the running
back position. I like Cooper Cup over Josh Gordon. I like Martavis Bryant. This week at the at the wide receiver position, especially if Juju once again cannot go. And I'm telling you O. J. Howard is the tight end to now owned in Tampa. They are phasing out Cameron Braid in my opinion, because he's gonna be a free agent at the end of the year. It also looks like Jamis loved him some Cameron Brady looks like Ryan
Fitzpatrick is locking in on O J. Howard. All right, we got some callers that want to be down with Stats over Beat Cipher, So we got the phone lines open. I'm gonna take your calls. We're gonna answer questions, waiver wires, shade, sit starts, all that. Let's get it started here on the Fantasy free Stop. It is truly the favorite part of my day when I get to engage with the hashtags Stats over beat Cipher. Craig in Toledo, you kick us off today on the Fantasy Freestyle. How can we
help you get a lucky number thirteen? W Hey, what do you think about Marquis good One coming in? Yeah? Yeah, that's a great question, trick Craig. You know, here's the thing. Goodwin is pretty much the only receiver there left anyway, you know Pierre Garson is out for the season. Here's the thing, though, Craig, deep balls, you need chemistry, you need reps in practice, you need time to know. Like Jimmy G doesn't necessarily know how fast Marky's Goodwin is.
You know what I'm saying, Craig, I think he might underthrow him. Also, they're in Chicago. It's gonna be cold out there. I don't know that the deep ball plays out there in Chicago in December. I like the idea that you're thinking that you know, Jimmy G is a better quarterback, and in time, I think that could be a good connection. But I think they need some time first, Craig, to build some chemistry together. So I don't know if I would go out there and pop like a Jimmy G.
Goodwin stack in DFS. I don't know if it really boost up Goodwin this week. I think in time it would, but I would wait and see first. Thanks for the call, though, Craig. Up next on the Fantasy Freestyle is Hector in Chicago right there? What we were talking about with that forty Niners Bears game is gonna take place? Hey, Hector, what's the weather? Is supposed to be like this weekend? Is it gonna be cold? It's gonna be snowy at all? Give me a weather report, Hector, what's it like? Hey,
how's it going? Delly delly? The weather did this weekend for Sunday? Should be all right? So we all right? Man? We all right? So maybe the deep ball is in play? Dilly dilly, Hector? How can we help you get a W and lucky week thirteen? Thanks for device last week with Coleman. But somebody somebody dropped Kenny Stills and I thought, uh, Matt Moore had a man crush on him, so I went with him. But he didn't do much. Yeah, I thought Matt Moore had the man crush on him as well.
It didn't really play out, but mostly because the Dolphins had just blunt, guts trash. So let's keep it moving though. Get you a W for this week? What can we do well? I gotta w? Anyways, Thanks were the Ravens um the defense. The Ravens didn't do well. Yeah, they didn't do well, and I was up thirteen, so I walked away with a W by like four points. That must have been closed because I personally also owned the
Baltimore Ravens defense, and they did. You know, they did just fine for me, So I was happy with them, but uh, what in my in my in my league? They got twelve points last night for me, but I was running away from it and so it was all good. But what forward? Yeah, what do you got? My main question is I already cleared to buy, so I'm looking
at week fifteen. This is I forgot to mention, is um, I got the first round by for the playoffs, so I'm looking at weeks fifteen and I just wanted your expert advice, Like I forgot to mention, this was like my first year fantasy, so you gotta buy right, So good thing. I had some ties in my division. So that's how I got it. I'm seven and five and m I just want your expert advice on like, I got the first round by, What do I do now? Like? Yeah, you you you got it right. You look to week fifteen.
You look for the matchups in week for fifteen. Here's the first thing I would do. Okay, the first thing I would do, man, is whoever your stud running backs are, I would I would get their handcuffs on your roster, just in case injury falls them between now and week fifteen. Okay, so here's the thing, all right, So you need to try to find other Denver Broncos. You need to see if cjn since available, and with Shady, I think it's
Mike Tilbert that you need to try to find. Okay, and you could drop like your fourth or fifth running back, your fifth wide receiver. You don't need them anymore. All you need to do is protect your starting lineup for week fifteen. So you gotta get those handcuffs. Okay. Here's the other thing you need to do. You need to
start looking at those defensive matchups. I don't know who your defense is, but you gotta look to see who they're playing in week fifteen, and then you know, whatever format you use, what you can do is you can set it when you look to all the available players. Go to a week fifteen and go to defenses and see which defenses start having the best matchups for you
in week fifteen for example. You know, I mean, listen, now, look who the Giants are playing week fifteen for example, look at who you know the Browns have week fifteen. Look at these pissport offenses and see what they got week fifteen. Those are where I would start for the rest. Hit me up on Twitter, al right, man, and we'll
try and get you set up. Because if you're a first year player and you gotta buy, and you're listening to the Fantasy Sports Radio Network and Speeds the spitting Statistician, that is a testimonial of how we help you win your leagues and win that cash. Get it, Hector. I hope he keeps on rolling for your call back any time next. On the Fantasy Freestyle, Dan in New Jersey, Hey Dan, what's going on? Let's help you get a W for Lucky Week thirteen? Hey Dan, how's it going? Um?
I have a quick question before I get to my main question. Um uh, just that, UM, I have Evan I the Evan Ingram problem in New York, so I don't have a quick switch between him and Seals Jones in and out each other. The question is how far does Evan Ingram drop? Right? That's what it comes down to. Listen, I'm gonna tell you what this week, I keep Evan Ingram in there, I get Ricky Seals Jones. If I were you, Dan, I try to get Ricky Seals Jones
on my roster. But this week, with the playoffs on the line, I'm not going to a guy who if I've only seen it once or twice, I know he's hot right now, but I I just can't look myself in the mirror, you know, staking my playoff potential on Ricky Seals Jones. And here's the thing with Evan Ingram. I believe that, you know, we default back to the young or bad quarterback thing, and what's a young or bad quarterback's best safety blanket? The tight end? And who
is there anyway? You know, like it's it's it's Shepherd and it's Ingram, and that's about it. I don't think Ingram falls that far down to where Seals Jones hops him. I would have Seals Jones on my roster. But what I would do is I would see, you know what happens this week, but this week, Dan, I would start Evan Ingram, you said you had another one. Let's let's answer to quick, Well, actually that can go right off
of that question. To be honest, Um, then I guess who would I dropped from my team to get Seals Jones Because we already talked about actually through Twitter, about my wide receiver not to anyone. So actually it's just who would I drop pretty much to get Seals Jones? Then, um, I'm gonna be dropping um high to get great team hunt on my d team. Sorry, cream, Um, I'm sorry about that. Okay, you're dropping. I got too many I got I got too many running backs, so I'll reaching
my team real quick. Whatever. And then are you is the trading deadline pass in your league? Yeah, that's passed already, all right, all right, um yeah, give me the bottom of your roster because I do want to get to a couple of other callers that we can keep on going back and forth Dan on Twitter. But give me the bottom of your roster, okay, pretty much? Um, it's Jordy Tate Bunches. I hate to say that. Maybe it's
Jordy Nelson. Maybe Jordy is what you do because I mean you've seen it, right, I mean, like, are you gonna hold him from maybe the fact that Aaron Rodgers pops off and comes back each fifteen and sixteen. I think Jordy Nelson is the answer. Unfortunately, I know it's crazy and late in the season you have strange bedfellows at this point, but yeah, I think it's Jordy Nelson. Unfortunately. All right, Dan, but hit me back up on Twitter if you need. We'll keep on managing to help you
when your leagues and win net cash. Up next, I am so happy. Up next, it is Jilly Dilley in CALLI if you don't know, if you're not part of the cipher, Jilly Dilley is undefeated. She listens to the show all the time, feeds the notes. It's actually her husband's team that is undefeated. She is a loyal stats overbeat cipher. Remember Dilly Dilley, and her husband is still undefeated because of the knowledge she's getting on the Fantasy
Sports Radio Network and the Fantasy Freestyle. Jilly Dilly Dilly has it going good. Hey, thanks for all your information. Yep, we're still undefeated, but I am not allowed to screenshot the team. My husband's very superstitious. He, as my grandmother used to say in yid is, she doesn't want to get himself a kind I understand, I understand, but I'm calling about his other teams. Okay, this other team is in second place. They're eight and four, three teams with
our record and three teams with seven and five. Let's tell them out. These next two weeks are important, so he does not want to play Ingram this week, but he's going to keep him, but he wants to replace him either with Kyle Rudolph, Jack Doyle, or maybe, as you say, Charles Clay. I like Jack Doyle this week, Jilly, I love Jack Doyle this week. I know it sounds crazy because they're playing the Jacksonville Jaguars, but what the Jaguars do is stym me the receivers on the outside.
It's their cornerbacks. Okay, it's Jalen Ramsey, it's a j. Bouyer that are the studs on the outside. They've also become much better at stopping the run. The one thing that Jacksonville Jaguars don't do well is stop the tight end. And Jack Doyle has turned into the new number one option in Indianapolis. T Y Hilton has defecated the mattress left and right. Jack Doyle has been the consistent get for Jacobe Brissette. Jilly, I would take Jack Doyle and
I would start him this week over Evan Ingram. You don't drop Evan Ingram, but you bench Evan Ingram in your situation and go and get Jack Doyle, Jill, I'm so happy you called. I'm so happy that we're helping you and your husband's team get to the playoffs. Don't send me screenshots, but keep me updated and let me know how we're doing. We raise a glass to you, Billy Dilly. We got time for one more and it is Eric in Florida. Eric, you're on the Fantasy Freestyle.
We're up against the break. So what's your question? If I can't answer it now, I'll answer it after the break. Yeah, I'm making clear. Are you doing today? What's going on? All right? Great question. I gotta off for Cream hunt as j for p Run and Josh doson. Uh, you would be getting Hunting as j al. Right, here's the thing. I hear the music. So here's what we're doing. We're gonna take a quick commercial break because we gotta pay the bills here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. When
we come back, I'm gonna answer this question. Which to this trade? I like better for Eric, and we'll see what we're doing on time. We might have to get him my man Chris the analyst Ventra, because he's a Giants fan. I want to hear how he reacts. For this news of Eli Manning getting bench, all that and more. When we come back, it's the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Fantasy Freestyle. Eli Manning is started for the Giants two hundred and ten games in a row.
I don't really know what the Giants are hoping to achieve here. If they went to Davis Webb, that would be one thing. If they're going to Geno Smiths instead, you know, Geno smith does not give you a great chance to win. I don't get it, Eli Manning. I think he's getting a raw deal. I think he's been getting a raw deal for a couple of years. I think Eli Manning is moving on. I think he's going down to Jacksonville. If you want to know the God's on his truth weekdays from seven to a p m. E.
Stern on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Or you've got speeds that's betting statistician holding you down on a Tuesday for Eric in Florida, who just gave me this trade. I don't know that. I want to take both members of the Washington football team and I'm not really that high on Josh Dotson. I think it's Jamison Crowder out there on Washington and not Dotson. P Ryan doesn't really move the needle for me either, so
Eric out there in Florida. I like the Kareem Hunt Austin Sefarian Jenkins side of that trade a lot better. I know Kareem Hunt has been blunt, guts trash lately, but I also think that there is some bounce back potential. I still think I would rather have Hunt and a s J, so I would take that side of the trade. So if those are the guys you already have, I would not make a move to acquire both of the
Washington football team. The last call that we do have is Brody and Riverside A Brody, we don't have much time, but you're on the stats over beat Cipher. How can I help you get a w for Lucky Week thirteen? Man? I got running back issues. I got I got two spots or three spots because I have I have in this flex spot. I have Drake, but I have a
Dion Lewis, Jamal Williams, Marshawn Lynch, and Alex Collins. I like Marshawn Lynch this week because they don't have Crabtree, they don't have Cooper, And I like Dion Lewis this week as well. Okay, I like Dion Lewis and I like Marshawn Lynch of those, and to be quite honest, I would have Collins in over Drake if you want to know the truth, I like Lewis. Yeah, I like Louis Lynch and Collins. I mean Drake, he just doesn't. I don't think he's that great of a football player,
if you want to know the truth. And I think, um, I think that in that game, in that game, who do Miami have. Let me see real quick, Miami's got Denver. That's one of the best, one of the best run defenses in the league. Give me Dion Lewis against Buffalo because the Bills have been getting carved up via the run. Give me Marshawn Lynch against the Giants were tackling is optional and they don't have Cooper and Crabtree. And then give me Alex Collins and Baltimore. Um, I like. I
just like the River Dancer. I think he is a better running back, especially against the Detroit Lions. Hope it works out for you. I mentioned Marshawn Lynch. Um, you know they are gonna be without Crabtree. They are gonna be without Cooper. But breaking news, Michael Crabtree suspension just got reduced to only one game, but it will be this week against the Giants, So the Raiders are gonna have to go in other places. That next to my man Bama Texan out there on Twitter for hitting me
up with that breaking news. But whatever you do for your DFS lineup, go on over the Daily Roado dot Com slash d k MS. We're talking about who to maybe put in who we like this week, things like Jack Doyle, things like Marshawn Lynch, maybe Dion Lewis. You might want to get them in your DFS lineup. But regardless, when you go over there, you learn a lot about how you can help to fight against blood cancer. We're partnering with d k MS, so even if you lose at the DFS, you are a winner at life. I
want to give. Like I said, big shout out to my man Obama Texan giving me that break news on Crabtree suspension getting reduced. Also, I love it. Liberty Finder on Twitter hit me up and said bench Vernon Davis hashtag Dilley Dilley What a picture of Vernon Davis being banished to the pit of misery? All right there. I wanted to bring in my guy, Chris the analyst Ventre. I know you always monitor the YouTube feed, but I gotta ask you, Chris. I know you're a Giants fan.
How do you feel about this move away from Eli Manning? Do you think they did him dirty? I don't know. I don't know if there's a right way to go about ending a legacy like that for Eli unless he just you know, would string would you let him play out the string? Or would you make the move? Mike maybe tell like the Davis Webb Yeah, exactly. I don't get the Geno Smith move. I get if they went to Web, I get it, test them out. He got drafted in the third round, so you didn't spend a
lot of money the third round. Also, you never know, right, and then if he doesn't work after you see a little bit, maybe you draft a quarterback in the first round next year. Right, they're gonna have a top five pick in all likelihood, right, So I don't understand that Geno Smith move unless they see something spectacular all of a sudden from Gino Smith, which I don't think it's the case. Do you think Gino Smith is lightening it up in practice? Maybe? Maybe I don't get what I
would they would do it. Why else are they bringing him in? Because Ben McAdoo does not know what he's doing as an NFL head coach, that's why. And because he's gonna get fired as well. He's gonna get fired on January second, whatever the Monday is, right after week seventeen. But hey, what are you gonna do? We'll be back tomorrow. Fantasy Freestyle start giving you my diamonds and gazes for week thirteen. Come on back, I'll see you tomorrow. Piece
