I will in fact give you my preview of that game a little bit later on. We gotta poll question up as well. The spread in this one. The Atlanta Falcons are two

and a half point home underdogs. If you listen to we'll watch this show all the time. You know what I have to do with the home dogs. I gotta check myself so you know where my pick will be.

We may because Thursday Night Football has a player on the Atlanta Falcons that my Guy's Young Cause and The Effect did another rap parody of, so we may in fact debut that here on the Fantasy Freestyle tonight as well. But when we come back, we go around the league news notes, injury reports. Are they trending positively? Are they trending negatively? And then I'll tell you how to win a little bit of cash on Thursday Night Football tonight when it's

the Falcons in the Saints. Come on right back. We'll get all into that. You can holler at me if you want. You know what it is, Mr Fantasy Freestyle. Let's go Frank Stanfel 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.

The showtime changes to make sure you're always locked and 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 in Minnesota. It's a Big Game Trivia Challenge sponsored by d k MS

only on the fantasy sports radio network du Block. You know what it is right here, it's the Fantasy Freestyle with doing big things hashtag stats, over beats my man, Chris Bona keeping it hot like mcmull blown up like a Samsung seven. You know what it is? All right here we go. Here's what we gotta do. I gotta give you news and notes from around the NFL. There's some practice reports, some new injuries to report. You know, we never like when someone pops up on the injury

report on a Thursday. We have that situation, and we have some guys trending in the right direction, some guys trending in the wrong direction. So let's get at it before we get to the practice reports. Though, the Cleveland Browns have fired their executive vice president Sashy Brown. Remember you was coming in kind of trying to change the way the organization was run. They were gonna do like a little moneyball action, borrowing it from baseball, not any

more than not. They fired Sashy Brown. They are saying, though, that head coach, you Jackson, will get to keep his job for now. Aaron Rodgers there saying, quote unquote looks like himself at practice those are all great reports, but I looked at the Packers schedule and weeks fifteen and sixteen day have the Carol nine of Panthers in the Minnesota Vikings. Those are not two teams I would want

to return against. So that gives me cause for pause as it turns to Aaron Rodgers and anybody stashing him for a championship run. Also, Ryan Shazier was moved from Cincinnati hospital to a Pittsburgh hospital and he was he required spinal stabilization surgery last night. Um. That doesn't sound good, um, and so we just hope that he's okay, and we hope, you know, um that if he wants to, he can continue his incredible start to his NFL career. I will

leave it at that. Our prayers and our thoughts with you from the stats overbeat Cipher in the Fantasy Freestyle are with you, Ryan Shazier. It also looks like mark Ingram will in fact be good to go tonight. Remember he missed the last two practices last few days because of a toe injury, but maybe they would just fire getting ready to fire him up tonight as the Saints take on the Falcons. Listen, not practicing today. Alan Hearns

didn't practice with an ankle. That's more Mark Easley and that's another opportun ready for D. D. Westbrook to shine. Joe Mixon didn't practice. Still in the concussion protocol, I believe Giovanni Bernard is a fire up DFS play if Mixon does not go. Damien Williams did not practice, still has that shoulder injury. That means Drake to me is great. On Monday Night football against the Pats TV twelve. Tom Brady did not practice today with that Achilles injury. Let

me tell you something. They're likely managing his reps, but the New England Patriots expect Tom Brady to play in seven more games, four more regular season games, a divisional matchup, a conference championship game, and a big game up in Minnesota. For him to be having a misspractice because of an achilles injury, now, I don't know what that means for the next two months and in the playoffs, they might have to see Saxonville, they might have to see some

big time pass watchers. We will see Adrian Peterson didn't practice because of that. Next still, Jeremy Macklin did not practice today. This is a downgrade for Macklin. He was limited in practice Wednesday and then he didn't practice today. That is trending in the wrong direction in my opinion for the Baltimore Ravens wide receiver. Remember they got Pittsburgh, who's a solid pass defense these days, so I would fade Macklin regardless. Also, Jalen Ramsey didn't practice today. Again,

they were saying he was supposed to. Maybe he'll go tomorrow. I think this is very interesting as it relates to Russell Wilson, as it relates to Doug Baldwin, especially Doug Baldwin. Doug Baldwin does a lot of work out of the slot for the Seahawks. Jalen Ramsey, though, follows people into the slot. A J. Bouye, on the other hand, does not. So if he doesn't go, I think you all of a sudden, really can pump up Doug Baldwin. This week, Tyrod Taylor was limited but did practice. But he can

barely walk, so he got a monitor. That's still Sterling Shepherd got in a limited practice. Remember yesterday we talked about it wasn't Calice, it was Key up my neck mob back. There's always something with Sterling Shepherd if he goes, I like him against the Dallas Cowboys. Secondary Doug Martin back practicing with creating a clouded running back committee in Tampa. Joquas Rogers, Doug Martin, we saw Peyton Barber. We know Charles Simms is in there on passing downs as well.

I stay away from that situation entirely. New. Add to the injury report, and this one is important for a lot of people in the playoffs. Robbie Anderson, New York Jets oncoming wide receiver tweet a hammy in practice today. It is a new injury. Keep an eye out on him and his practice report tomorrow. Matt Stafford practice today. Looks like he'll be okay and he'll tough it out. He's a gamer. He'll go. Chris Hogan practicing again. This is very interesting and could be great timing because the

Pats will be without Rob Gronkowski on Monday night. Maybe they have the return of Chris Hogan. Greg Olson practice again. He should be good to go. Jonathan Stewart practiced again. They're probably just managing his reps because he missed yesterday's practice, so maybe he gets that veteran off day on a Wednesday. Another veteran running back in the same situation as Matt Forte for the Jets, did not practice on Wednesday, does practice today. That's why I'm saying it's important to note.

I say it all the time. Wednesday establishes the baseline. If you go from DNP to practicing, you're good to go. And that is the case. And I think with Jonathan Stewart and Matt Forte, Kelvin Benjamin also got back to practice today. He is trending in the right direction. And I'm also like muching. Will Fuller has now practiced two games, two days in a row for the Texans. He could be back coming back from a rib injury. He missed the last three games. That could really help. Uh, you know,

Tom Savage. Shall we say, all right, let's talk a little bit about Thursday night football. I want to give you my preview as the Saints travel to Atlanta to take on the Falcons. As I mentioned, the Falcons are home dogs. If you listen to this show all the time, you know that I always talk about betting with the home dogs. I always do. But last week the Dallas Cowboys were home dogs in this exact situation, and I went away from them and I lost. On Monday Night Football,

the Cincinnati Bengals were home dogs. They didn't win the game, but they covered the spread. Today, the Atlanta Falcons are home dogs by two and a half. Tony Sinkata gave me a great idea at the end of Lineup Block Live. He said he would tease it. I what we were on the other side of the opposite sides of the game. I would tease it so that I get a full field goal from the Falcons, and then I will ride

out with that at home. The Falcons, I believe, are still a offense that is getting better and better with more experience in the Stieve Sarkesian system. I just think last week they ran into a very hot Minnesota Vikings defense. I think they can get back on the gravy train tonight. I think this game is in the twenties, but I also would take the under. The over under is like fifty one and a half fifty two. I take the under. I think this is one of those games that has

a very slow first half. I think you see like ten ten and a half times something like that, thirteen ten, and then it opens up a little bit. I am very excited to see rookie Marshall and Lattimore see what he can do against Julio Jones. This kid has been amazing. Missed a couple of games because of injury, hadnt has now returned. I really want to see if he can actually handle Julio Jones. And I'm gonna tell you something. I think he can so in season long, if you

have Julio Jones, you're in your playoffs. Of course you are starting Julio Jones. But Julio Jones has kind of been all over the map. He popped off for two d fifty plus yards, but he's also had games where he's had like two for thirty three. I think this one is somewhere in between. But I do think Marshawn and Lattimore can stick with Julio for most of the game. Here's what I'll tell you my diamond and the rough for this game. Because I think Marshawn Lattimore can handle

Julio Jones. I think Matt Ryan is gonna have to go elsewhere. If you listen to this show, you know who that is. It's my man Mohammed. It's a new Day, and I think he could be a viable option and a target from Matt Ryan if Julio is struggling with Marshawn Lattimore. I also like mark Ingram if he goes tonight, and it looks like he will. Everyone is in love with Alvin Kamara these days. But don't forget I told you that these Saints running backs are right now in

PPR settings RB three and four. That means mark Ingram is rbfour in the league right now, and no one's really talking about them. So to me, Mohammed Sanu and mark Ingram are my diamonds in the rough in this game. And I gotta tell you about my fantasy fool gaze, the guy I think you need to forget about in this game. Okay. For me, it's Tevin Coleman. I think Tevin Coleman is the fool gays in this game. And let me tell you why DeVante Freeman came back from

injury last week. Okay. And I think Steve Sarkasian. Remember these guys are both very solid running backs. Okay, but I think Steve Arkaesian's offense runs better when there's like a quote unquote bell cow and I think they want that to be Freeman. Last week when Freeman came back, the carries were split between Freeman and Coleman twelve to eight in favor of DeVonta Freeman. Okay, so if it's like, you know, twelve eight, I think that shifts a little

bit more in the DeVante Freeman side. I could see a you know, a split of like seven team to five today, and I think DeVante Freeman produces. I think that means, uh, Tevin Coleman is my fantasy Foo Gaze someone to fuget about. Do we have that? Christ No, no, no, no, we don't have that. That's okay. What means phony yep. And so like I said, man, you know, if you're in season long, you have to play Julio Jones. But Xavier Rhades just shut Julio Jones completely down last week.

I don't think Lattimore shuts him down. But I don't think Julio pops off for one of those crazy nine catch, two hundred yards two touchdown games either. Overall, I would take the under in this game. I think everyone thinks, oh Saints Falcon's hive powered offenses. I've been saying on this show for a long time, A long time ago that the Saints are now more of a running time of possession team to extend drives and give their defense a chance. I think that plays into the under. But

I'm gonna take the home dog. Give me the Atlanta Falcons. Give me it like a twenty seven three kind of game. Just below the under. That's where I'm gonna go. When we come back, We're gonna have my man Nick Leverani from Pro Angle Media. We're gonna talk all things l A and football, and there's a lot going on right now, so come on back. It's the Fantasy Free Style on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network Hunter, Henry Sterling, Shepherd, Michael Thomas.

These three NFL softmores are not due to slump. They're due to break out. Just like the Fantasy Sports Radio Network e year two, things are only getting better. Make sure listen live and tell o the app f A T s Y Radio. It's free and it's twenty four seven. The best Fantasy sports ten is on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. California. He knows had a party. Yeah, we're bringing a little that California love, and we got love for the West Coast. That's why right now I am excited.

To bring on my man, our West Coast correspondent. We got Nick Liverani on the line. He represents Pro Angle Media out there in l A. He's been on the show a couple of times before, a true friend of the show. Hey, Nick, Dilly Dilley, you're back on the Fantasy Freestyle. How's it going, man, Dilly Dilley. I'm doing all right, man, I'm doing okay. I'm hanging in there out here, trying to stay inside with all these wildfires

and everything. But uh, you know, it seems like everyone, no, not many people's lifestyles are change it too much out here. Everyone seems pretty common collected alright, fair enough. And Nick, Yeah, that's where I wanted to start with you, man, because listen, I've had callers telling me that, you know, the four five is on fire, the Rams canceled practice. I know you even had a you know, a men's league softball game canceled this week because of it. What's it like

out there? Is it really kind of like a bad air quality? Do you think this can impact the players at all? You know, I think anytime you take a player out of his you know, his habits, it can affect the player um us on our med's softball league.

You know, maybe not so much because our lungs are destroyed anyway, you guys are exactly, but uh, you know, I the last report I did here was that the Rams were still gonna go ahead and practice in Thousand Oaks, which is, you know, just a hop, skip and a jump where you know, the major brush fires were happening. But at the last I heard they were gonna stay put. And uh, you know it just accordingly if anything did happen.

I mean, the Rams, you know, they've played in London this year, They've done the whole travel, going across the across the pond, So I don't think it's gonna affect them too much. You know, a lot with the charges to I you know, I think you know, the charges have had their own mean you're you're moving families from San Diego to l A. I think these guys are professionals. I don't think they're going to be affected too much

by it. However, you know, if the air quality does get worse, there is possibilities about moving the games, but you know that that'll put that decision will probably come a little bit later on in the week, all Right, fair enough and listen. Both l A teams, I have to think would be pleasant surprises, but maybe not to us. Nick. I remember at the beginning of the season when we were previewing kind of both the Rams and the Charges, you and I, we were both a little bit higher

on the Chargers than both. Right now in the a f C West there is a flat footed tie at six and six between the Chargers, the Raiders and the Kansas City Chiefs, who got out of the gates very quickly, have lost something like five in a row. Hey, Nick, yesterday on the pole question, I asked who would win the a f C West of the vote? Have the Los Angeles Charges? You and I both thought that they

would be contenders going in. What is going on with the Charges because I remember at the beginning of the season they lost a couple of very tight games, but it seems like they have, you know, found Keenan Allen again. He has been an absolute stud. Do you think this can continue? What's going on over there in l as well? I got two words turnover differential. The first four weeks

they were minus three in the turnover differential department. Now since since week four their plus fourteen and that just goes to show you, I mean that it's that defense that's actually been winning them games. I mean, yeah, Philip Rivers has looked, you know, like the Philip Vers evolved. You know, he's still his shoulder looks completely healed. You know, he's he's found his number one weapon. And Keenan Allen again, but it's those two down linemen that that have that

been really disrupting game plans with Bosa and Ingram. Those guys are freaks. Absolutely, they could disrupt any Gland game plan. And that's why I think the Charges will win this weekend is because that that h Washington offensive line is so banked up. I don't think they're gonna be able to contain both those guys, if not, maybe even just one. Yeah, absolutely,

I agree with you they're rolling. I agree with you that Washington football team offensive line is not gonna be able to stand up to Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram. Those guys have been putting on the heat and as well, you talked about Keenan Allen on the offensive side, the other Charger. I want to ask you about, have the Charges finally figured out that their best tight end, this Hunter Henry, Like you know, I mean they got Antonio Gates,

his touchdown, his record and all that. I actually think Hunter Henry is a great Dynasty League stash because eventually Gates is gonna walk away. I think this offseason and then all of a sudden you have a top eight tight end moving forward. Do they believe Hunter Henry can be that for them? Absolutely? I think the only thing that's been you know, hindering Henry's uh fantasy stock has

been uh Antonio Gates. But you know, once he he has once he rides off into the sunset, this is Hunter Henry's you know offense because he could just see when when he gets the ball, when he gets targeted more, that offense flows so much more. And he's always there in the middle of the field. He takes shots. I know he took a bad hit last week. I don't

know if he's playing this week. I know he's quite Shinna Bowl, but uh, you know, if if he is followed up, I do, Like, you know, Washington is not very good against the tight end, So I like either Gates or Henry this week, you know. And Keenan Allen first player to ever have ten receptions in three straight games along with a hundred yards and a touchdown. I mean, the guy is a stud. You gotta keep feeding your beast. He's you know, every team's got one stud. You gotta

feed him. Yeah, absolutely, and you're right. Henry did get banged up a little bit in that last game with a little bit of a knee issue, but he is currently not listed on the Chargers injury report, so it looks like he should be good to go against the Washington football team. Let's go over to the other team in l a real quick nick, because listen, the Rams have kind of been doing it all season long. Sean McVeigh has really come in there and reinvigorated that offense,

and it started to mold Jared Goff. Is the development of Jared Goff? Is this like a real thing? Do you think he continues to ascend? Yeah? I mean it's just look I I always talked of when I talked about mcday, I just I talked immediately about what his job he did with the Redskins and how how he develops Kurt Cousins. He's he literally had a brand new toy Jared Goff, to mold him. However, he wanted and goff he's not. You know, the thing is he's not

putting golf in a position to fail. He's putting him in the best possible way to succeed. You know. He You see the way he starts the game out. They do a little bootleg rollouts, get him a little five yards thinking dunk pass exactly. Yeah, same thing with like the Seahawks to a Russell Wilson, they run him out

ten yards, get him going. So you know, and also, you know, Golf, even with the even him with not having Robert Woods supporting casts around him, going in and getting Sammy Watkins is a shut fire, got great hands. Cooper Cup another guy who he has a good rapport with, and then you got the bell cow in the back with with Todd Gurley, the team has just made for

success um right now. In their defense, if they could just if they could get that, if they could win the turnover battle, that team is gonna be dangerous, especially if they could host a couple of playoff games in the in the NFC. Yeah. Absolutely, And let me tell you something, they've also figured out that Todd Gurley can actually catch the ball out of the backfield as well. I think that has been very helpful. And you mentioned

their defense, that Wade Phillips defense. You know, maybe it takes a little bit of time, but they are certainly improving on that side of the ball as well. I want to ask you this, Nick. You know, the Rams have the Philadelphia Eagles, who, as you remember, because I told you before the season that the Eagles were going to be my surprise team, and boy did that play out. But here's what I want to ask you about it.

Rams and Eagles. Well we will see. Is the number one and number two overall picks in last year's draft on the field together and Jared Goff and Carson Wentz? Are the Rams happy still with Goff? Do they think they made the right decision? Because people are talking about went as an m v P candidate. I understand what you're saying in terms of McVeigh having a new like a piece of clay to mold, but what Wentz has been doing has been incredible as well. Do you think

they made the right choice. I you know, I still think they made the right choice. I mean, if both these guys, I mean, if the rate they're going right now, you know, you'd be happy to have any one of these guys, I mean, you seem like the pill. They still for a guy like you know, Carson Wentzer. Now, uh, but you know you got Wentz who leads to the NFL right now with twenty nine touchdown passes. He's a clear cut m v P guy and he right, he's

so strong and so smart with the ball. You could just see he's got such great vision on the field. And you know with golf, his his touchdown to turnover interception ratio is and you know it's been incredibly, um, you know, so much better this year than was last year. I think he's twenty two six this year and a touchdown to interceptions. So this is gonna be a huge prideful game. I think between these two, you know, you've got the number one overall pick versus the number two

overall pick. You've got silly coming off a loss in Seattle, I think Wentz is gonna come and bring it. A lot of people are picking the Rams in this game, but I actually think that the Eagles could come away with a victory here on the West Coast. They've already been here, you know, they've they've been on the West coast off now this year, already too, right, Yeah, yeah, they played the Chargers next week, so they've got three

straight games. They were on, they were in Seattle, they got the Ramps, and then they stay here for the charge. All right, fair enough? Hey, uh, Nick, we gotta once again thanks for joining the show here right here on the Fantasy Freestyle. This is Nick Livrani, a good friend to the show, Dilly Dilley over there in Pro Angle media. I got some quick hitters for your real quick nick um. At this point, you know, we're starting the playoffs, right, and a lot of people on our show are wondering

about some fantasy football ethical questions. So let me get your take. Do you think it is okay Let's say you're in the playoffs, right, and your opponent this week, let's say has Rob Gronkowski at tight end and he's missing. Do you think it is okay for you to like pick up any viable tight end on the waiver wire to block your opponent? Is that fairer foul? You know,

it's funny, I've had that exact time. I'm actually I have Gronkokowski in one of my league, and I'm actually playing at grinst against Gronkowski in another one, and I seriously was debating going ahead and packing up just the next top available tight end right, and I think in the league was Steals Jones from Arizona, Like, he's probably gonna be someone who's gonna get picked up. I thought

about it long and hard. If I had any room on my roster to make that move, I would have done it just to block, just to block him out. I'm playing against him. Why Why do I gotta get to an easy shot to win? All is fair? All is fair, All is fair, and fantasy love and war apparently, Hey, Nick, one quick more question because we gotta get out of here real quick. And once again, thanks for joining the show. I know you're a little bit of a DFS guy too.

Out there on the West Coast. I got some DFS nuggets. I love Michael Crabtree this week against the Chiefs without Marcus Peters. And to be quite honest, I love a new little San Francisco stack Mark. He's good when impressed me with Jimmy g like any of those white outs. You got any nuggets for me this week? I do like those guys. Actually, I'm thinking more on the running back side. If you're thinking about doing someone in uh, playing in any kind of cash game or or at

fifty type. I like guys like Jeo Bernard. Yeah, absolutely no, Joe Mixing. The guy is gonna get tons of targets in the bat of the back build. He's I mean somebody did when She's year went out of the game against Pittsburgh last week. He ran all over that team. So and he's gonna get up against the fairs team this year. That's you know, been so so against the run this year. But you gotta figure that they're gonna lean heavily on him this week. Another guy I like

this week is Payley Barber. You know Doug Ball, you know Doug Martin though is back, he's practicing again. Okay, I'm not buying it. I don't think. I don't think Doug Martin, he hasn't rushed for you, are fair enough the game I think. I mean, you gotta figure that you're not just gonna stash Peyton Mark boy after he gets you a hundred yards and a touchdown and uh, you know, a cup and forty receiving yards. I don't

think you could just go away with him like that. Yeah, I still think he's the wholesome value all right, fair enough, Thanks a lot, Nick for joining the show. Dilly dilly out there to you and yours, and tell all my former drink he's out there to you know, watch out for the wildfires and take cover. Thanks for joining the show once again. Nick, will have you on towards the end of the season when these chargers and rams are

Catch us on Twitter me young cos my boy Kenneth Cashman over from Road to War. We're talking a little bit of stats over beat, a little lyricism

today on Twitter. But now we turn our attention to the stats over beat cipher. The phone lines are open. Like I say, it is the best part of my day when I got to help you guys win your leagues and win that cash. And we started off today with Randall and shy Town. Hey, Randall, you're on the fantasy freestyle. I hope week thirteen was lucky for you when you're in the playoffs. Let's keep it going. Let's get you with w what's good? Well, I appreciate that.

I don't know if it's solely because of me, but let's keep it going. Then, Randall, what can we do for you? All right? So I got two questions? So today, where do you start? I like Devonte. I think p Ryan has a great matchup. I really like some j p Ryan. Okay, I really like p Ryan this week. I think he's gonna get a little bit of production

um in the passing game. To the problem though, is that Washington offensive line I think is gonna, you know, get harassed by Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram all game long. So given those choices, I would go Davante Freeman Ramda, you got another one real quick? Yeah, Kirk Cousins, Jared Goff. I love Jimmy G this week. I really really love Jimmy G this week. But instead you said Kirk Cousins or Jared Goff. Also, I like Jared Goff going against

the bad Philadelphia secondary. I think they are going to try to throw the ball, So I'll take Jared Goff. I hope it works out for you. And if you keep on staying live in the playoffs, all at your boy spitting speeds. Next week, up next on the Fantasy Freestyle, it is Adrian north of the Border in Canada. We don't blame Canada, We love Canada. Adrian. How can we help you? Yeah, that's got three quick questions for you. I'm in a twelve team standard um my quarterbacks. To

go with Stafford, Prescott or Mariota. I like Stafford if he plays. If he plays, I like Stafford Mariota, I don't really trust and Dak. I'm scared of Dak. He's has He's turned the ball over a lot and the one time the Cowboys ran the ball and won the game, it was really through Alfred Morris. So if Stafford plays,

I like him. What else you got? Giovanni? Bernard Leonard, for Nette Kareem Hunt, I like Geo and for net uh Um Hunt would be the guy without a chair when the music stops from me on that one, Adrian. One more real quick Crabtree, A J. Greens. I like all of them, to be quite honest, but I would go a J. Green than Crabtree, then Adams for me, Adrian.

But at the same time, man I'm telling a lot of people on Twitter as well, go with your gut sometimes, you know, you don't want to kick yourself on a Monday and see the guy that you really liked on the bench with twenty seven points. But that's how I would play it if I were you. Adrian. Up next on the Fantasy Freestyle is Manny in Las Vegas. What usually happens there stays there. But when Manny gets down with the stats overbeat Cipher, the whole world knows. So

how could I help you? Manny? Hey? Ye know, I got two questions, man Q question Drew Brees or Alex Smith. I like Alex Smith this week. I really like Alex Smith this week that Oakland Raiders secondary can be had. And he also saw Alex Smith starting to go down field more again last week. If you have him on your team, you saw what he did. They've changed and Andy Reid gave play calling duties over to the offensive coordinator.

I think they're gonna try and go downfield a little bit more this rushing potential with Alex Smith as well. So he's my answer there, Manny, What else you got all right, and I need uh three out of these wide receivers. I got Da Marius Thomas, Michael Crabtree, Doug Baldwin, Trent Taylor Den, and Jamison Crowder. Uh is this PPR standard? It's PPR. I mean he's one of those as well, all right in PPR. I like Jamison Crowder, I like Michael Crabtree. I do not like Da Marrius Thomas because

Simeon has been defecating the mattress left and right. So I like Crabtree, like Crowder, and then do me a favor. I love Doug Baldwin. But what you gotta do is see if Jalen Ramsey practices tomorrow, because Jalen Ramsey's a great cornerback and he travels into the slot where Doug Baldwin goes. So keep an eye out for Jalen Ramsey's practice report tomorrow. If he's limited in any kind of way, then Doug Baldwin is your answer. Up next on the Fantasy Freestyle, we go to O H, I oh, we've

got the I with Danny. He's on the stats over beat Cipher. You know, let's get a w If you're in the playoffs, we gotta keep it going. You could win your league and win that cash. How can I help you, Danny go buck. So I called you yesterday, I believe and uh, I gave you running back question R format right. I gave you Hunt, McCaffrey and Miller right. And I told you and I told you that like I was gonna surprise you, and I actually went Kareem Hunt? Right?

Is that what I said? That's the last one, I think. But but you have Gioberard. I like Geo Binard. Geo Bernard fits in there over Kareem Hunt. I love Giovanni Bernard on the condition obviously that Joe Mixing uh misses the game with the concussion protocol. But if that is the case, Giovanni Bernard is the last man standing and he can produce. He could be a weapon out of the passing game as well. So yes, I would start Giovanni Bernard over Kareem Hunt, given what you had and

given no Joe Mixing anytime, brother man, anytime. Up next, on the Fantasy Freestyle, we go back to Chicago. This time it is Hector joining the stats over beat Cipher. Yo, Let's get you a w because this playoff time every win counts. Uh, let's get it on. What you got for me? Hector, see was going on, deli deli really quick. Um, I got a wide receiver question for you. I like him and Crabtree this week, and that's shootout. What do

you think? I agree with you? Remember the first time they played it was that Thursday night football game that was thirty one thirty. That's when a Mari Cooper went absolute be off in that game. I like Crabtree slightly better than Hill. I like Hill because, like I just said to the last caller, with Alex Smith, they're throwing the ball down field a little bit more. That means Tyree Hill. So I like him, but I love Michael Crabtree.

This week, Marie Cooper just cleared the concussion protocol, still is dealing with that ankle. And remember the Chief suspended Marcus Peters for this game. Okay, so they're gonna be even hurt more. I love Michael Crabtree, but I do think you can get Tyree Kill in that lineup if possible as well. I like them both, but I slightly with favor Crabtree over Hill. I hope that helps you out. Heck to let me know next week when you are still live in your playoffs. Last up today on the

Cipher we go to Baltimore. Omar coming, But it's not Omar, it's just Keith. Hey, Keith, you're on the stats over beat Cipher on the fantasy freestyle with speeds. How can I help you? I mean, so far as season helped a lot, three leagues, three playoff teams, So I'm looking good so far. That's absolut loulie. What's up? Let's keep it going. Just making the playoffs is the first step. Now is the fun part. And you have three leagues, let's win some cash. How can we help? So? I

got two quick ones. First, go Matt Ryan tonight or Matt Stafford on Sunday. Stafford has a great matchup. Stafford has a great matchup against the Tampa Bay Bucks. If if Stafford is healthy, I would go Stafford. The only problem is you have to make that call in the next you know, forty five minutes because Matt Ryan's about to go. That is the problem. I think Matt Stafford will go, and I think he will have a good game against Tampa. I'll tell you that. However, if you're

in the playoffs and don't want to risk it. I think Maddie Ryan is completely fine if you want to be conservative. What's your next question? Real quick, because we're up against the break real quick, all right, real quick. I have punches in my flex, but I picked up Giovanni Bernard and obviously Mark Cooper if he mixed on Sunday repeat of that fifty game point point game, maybe uh fair enough. Thanks for the call, Keith. I'm gonna tell you one thing. I love Giovanni Bernard this week.

If you have a flex opportunity for Giovanni Bernard, I would put him there. When we come back on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, we checked the pole and we see if Chris Venture has any YouTube question since for the crew, it should wait. Dave Martinezpe's is fitting statistician right here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports

Radio Network Fantasy Freestyle, Nick Liverani on the line. He represents pro Angle Media out there in l A. The Charges finally figured out that their best tight end is

Hunter Henry. Absolutely. The only thing that's been, you know, hindering Henry's fantasy stock has been Antonio gate Once, who rides off in the sunset This is Hunter Henry's you know, offense, because he could just see when when he gets the ball, when he gets targeted more, that offense closed so much more and always there in the middle of the field week days from seven to eight p m. E. Stern

on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Welcome back. It is the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. At this point you should already know. We love over here Www Dot Fantasy factor dot com. I don't want to compete with people to have algorithms and fifty lineups and contests, okay, Www Dot Fantasy factors dot com. Single entry tournaments, flatter prize pool, smaller contests, perfect for the person dipping their toe in the d f S water.

You definitely win a little bit of cash telling speeds the spitting statisticians sent you. And if you don't know by now, you're certainly not paying attention. But we here at the Fantasy Sports Network are collaborating with d k MS to help the fight against blood cancer. Go on over to Daily Rodo dot com slash d k MS.

We're doing free roll tournaments, okay, and if you win that, you go to week seventeen in the finals and if you win that you get tickets for two up to the big game in Minnesota where Justin timber Lake is doing the halftime show. But if you don't win, you're still a winner at life because you can really helped by being a bone marrow donor or a blood donor and helping the fight against blood cancer. Um, you know we got the poll question up right now. I misspoke.

I forgot this is in Atlanta. Um, they're not home dogs, they are home favorites. It is still less than a field goal to me, though. I like Atlanta tonight. But here's the thing. I'm going against the people. People like the Saints, but guess what on this pole, the people have gotten it wrong on Thursday Night football a number of times. I like the Falcons and I like a surprising under If you want to know the truth at this point, let's do our thing and bring in my

guy Chris the Analysts Venture. He's been monitoring the YouTube stream. A lot of people chatting out there. I hope you hit that like button. By the way, if you can there on the stream, you know, it really helps me out, Like follow, write a review, do whatever you gotta do to promote you know, Speeds, the spitting statistician and the stats overbeat cipher a venture. What are the people on the YouTube chet saying? Damn right? Um, damn right, that's

what I like. Adam a man Christ, the analyst Ventra. What's going on in the chat? Uh? They're talking about all different things. Who they're gonna start in the playoffs? They got this, They got Josh Gordon a lot really jumping on the Josh Gord. The thinking for me, the thing is like the Shaun Kaiser though, is that quarterback you know when he takes it and runs real quick? And I just wouldn't trust to Shaun Kaiser. But go ahead. So I got one question here so far, Um it's PPR.

You gotta pick two wire receivers of these four? Right? You got Doug Baldwin, Marcus Goodwin, Jervis Landry and Golden Tape. Is this PPR? Yeah? How many of my picking too? So I usually love Golden Tape. Stafford injury scares me a little bit about that, you know what I mean? And I usually love And you said it's PPR, right, So in that case, I love Jarvis Landry. I really I've been telling people I like Marky's Goodwin this week as it relates to Doug Baldwin. I'm telling you it's

all about that Jalen Ramsey injury. If Jalen Ramsey doesn't play, then I like Doug Baldwin. If he does play instead, I'm comfortable putting Goodwin in his place makes sense? Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm pretty much going Goodwin all the way okay here, and I mean you're gonna see Goodwin, I think in my DFS line up tomorrow, Nick excuse me not Nick uh? Chris? Are you are you calling in? Are you're gonna be here? We're gonna be doing our DFS line up a week fourteen on tomorrow show. I'm

gonna be calling in. Okay, tomorrow, fair enough. And I'm telling you right now you're gonna hear mark He's Goodwin's name in my DFS lineup. I like that. I even liked it with a stack of Jimmy G. At first, we got time for one more question? What's going on? Oh, without a doubt, Jimmy G. Goodwin. Here's the other one. Also book pick one PPR. Also a Baldwin in the mix. Jeric McKinnon or devont If Freeman. Actually it's picked two out of those three. I like Freeman and I like

McKinnon and PPR it's PPR. I like Freeman and McKinnon. I'm already a little bit on the fence about Baldwin because he's got that Jacksonville cat scratch fever. I think you know um who was a Freeman gets guaranteed touches. I like him and McKinnon in PPR format. You've heard me talk about this McKinnon Latin Murray thing. I think the Vikings are in a closer game. I think they're gonna need McKinnon out of the backfield. I do not think they're gonna be up by a ton thus grinding

it out with Latin Murray. I like Jered McKinnon and DeVonta Freeman. We'll see what Devantay Freeman does starting at about twenty five minutes. Week fourteen starts tonight, and we'll talk about it a little bit more in tomorrow's episode of the Fantasy Freestyle. Hoping everybody gets a w and Week fourteen at tea the last week your season or it's the playoff, baby, so we gotta get it going. I'll see tomorrow. We'll get everybody ready. It's the Fantasy

Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. See all tomorrow,
