It's the fantasy free step. He got strong takes some tips at the

We're getting into the holidays here, giving you some extra cash to spend in that retail holiday that is coming up ross. Say what's up to the people? Bad boy? Yo, man, you know what we do this time a year. We give you what you need to buy those turkeys, buy

those hams. Make sure that when that Drado spins, you get that gimmo. You know what I'm saying. We got the stuff for you to get that gel. We got those We got those Christmas presents. Under that Christmas tree. We got everything that you need, yo, speeds. We are in for most leagues, almost every solid league right now the semifinals. It's it's no tricks and it's time to

get paid. No, absolutely, absolutely, So we're gonna give them everything they need to stroke, gonna get him our spotlight games. We're gonna give him more flagships as always, but yo, check it out. We want to start this big news man. First coach of the year is now gone, Jeff Fisher, and like commercifully, in my opinion, the Jeff Fisher ever is over, not the era. He are a the error

E R R O R. How did this guy? It was interesting on that sports google that we do sometimes this guy recorded a video be like he probably knows where the bodies are and he must have had something on stand clunky. I don't know how he could go under five hundred for so long and stay. He got an extension which was just basically like a built in severance package for him. But he is finally gone. I'm kind of interested in where the Rams would go for their next head coach. It's kind of a good job.

I would think. You know you mentioned it before when we were talking off their rocks. They got the number one overall pick and Jared Goff. They had a running back in time of Barley, they had pieces on defense, they had the media market. Do you think they go into like a hot coordinator, a guy like Shanahan or a guy like McDaniels, or do you try to get like the home run out of college guy like Hardwall. I mean, I don't. I don't see Jim Harbaugh coming

from Michigan. He's been pretty clear about that. He's making nine million dollars a year, He's got his family set up. You know, that's my five year plan. Certainly props to him for executing here. John Gruden, I hear John Gruden, your board now your boy Bruden, and I think Gruden, Yeah, you know, Mike, that might be the sort of thing that I might possibly look in through you know, the Rams.

I call him the failures. You know, I look at the franchise and I think, if only they had better pocket awareness and perhaps they can capital Yeah, you know what I'm saying. You know, I loved, everyone loves John Bruden. What I would say, though, is one of the things you really need to watch with the Rams is the

way that the owner treats the teams. Again, you see this a lot with baseball too, and granted the salary cap situation is different, you need to remember the people who own these teams, their goal overall, for the most part, is not to necessarily win games and win championships. It is to generate a profit. And you know, stand young Stanley, I call him. You know, what he did by moving to Los Angeles has really greatly increase his ability to do that. However, we talked about this off air too.

There's a condition in in the Rams Stadium proposals for l A that says that they need to be able to accommodate us second team. And I just wonder if I'm a head coach taking that job, if I'm someone wants to be back in the spotlight one of those flashing names any team that comes in there. You know you're talking about the Raiders, You're talking about the Chargers. They're gonna quickly displace the Rams after the ill will that they've sowed during this failed initial campaign in the city,

as as basically the fan face person. I just wonder how that plays into a head coaches idea in being in the second biggest media market in the United States. Yeah, yeah, true enough, true enough. I also don't know why they would make that move on a Monday when they have Thursday night football unless they're going to try and make some kind of moves quickly. But as we have seen, the RAMS are not run well as an organization at

this point in time. I got a junior high school offense time, middle school, middle school, for sure, you check it out. Also, Rocks, a lot of people are in their playoffs, you know, not as much in this DFS environment that we have, but listen how many times did we Rocks tell them that they needed to handcuff their studs. Yo, you were riding Melvin Gordon to the playoffs and then all of a sudden he goes down and you somehow survived that. You're screwed. You should have listened to Rocks

and Speeds on the Fantasy Freestyle. In terms of ANCOFTS, if you had Matt Forte, you're probably screwed. You know what I'm saying, Like we were saying to start to lock these guys up, and you know, now there's still these guys that are on the only like twelve fourteen percent when guys like Alfred Moore's, guys like Jalen Machard, guys like D'Angelo Williams. People are still not listening to us. I wonder who is going to get screwed in the

playoffs this week speech. But I gotta say to you, though, is that this uh? And we'll talk about it a little bit more. But this Mia Faraoh kid coming in and being talked Tobago as a san Diego someone who's gonna gonna maybe get the bulk of the carries. You know, he came in last week. They weren't thrilled with him in pass pro, but he eat his competition for snaps is running him and that's kind of a tough one. Whereas I would say that that the power was at

sant alone value pretty much. Yeah, it's the beginning of the season. Matchup there and can do a little bit of the issue has been The issue has been the opportunity, and obviously that's that's the whole point of handcuffing. But if you had Matt Forte, Matt Forte goes down with this meniscus injury, it's a little it's a little vague, squishy right now, which really happened to him. He's been dealing with it all season a long, but I think there's really no intensive to come back. This Jets scene

needs to try to help. I would also say, what the hell's he intended for Pow to play this week? It's not like he's got any more incensive. But what I'd say though, what I'd say though, is you know, sorry, sorry to dig dig dig on a Jets fans, but but you know, for for Pow, though it's like he's a guy, there is no reason if he was unowned because he actually also had standalone tellue. The situation was

a little bit harder to predict in San Diego. But chances are that you don't have that number one waiver claim someone is going to block you if you need that. And as a Melbourne Gordon owner, you know it's slightly more forgivable. But if you lose Forte right now and blount are you have no one to blame but yourself. And you know why. I don't even know you, fam, but I'm blaming you for that. To beaus, Meat and Speeds have been beating this drum for the last three

or four weeks at least. Let me tell you something, but low how this week Rocke went up from forty six to fifty seven percent home. That's he is still out there and just shy of half of league. Remember, handcuff your stars. We're gonna tell you one more time as you head to the Fantasy playoffs. Hey, Rocks, I

gotta give it to you though. Last week on the Fantasy Freestyle here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, our gentleman's bet was in regard to Dante moncreef FO and it turned out I said that he was not going to be that touchdown dependent, that he was actually gonna get some yards. I had confidence in the Creech. It turns out not only does he go under whatever the level we set was, he got absolutely squaw Bush for Nata,

Nata for us. That's what it is. And moreover, he left the game in the fourth quarter reactivated a game strain intreat that he's been dealing with. I gotta give it to your Rocks. That's a gentleman's bet in your column, Young fist full of brains. Yeah man, you know they call me young igney as they called me young ignorance, and you've really been you. You put together quite a streak. It wasn't quite a cowboy, wasn't quite the cowboys? Would you put together quite a streak? It's nice for me

to get back in the win column this week. I only wonder where we may disagree as we go on with this episode. But one thing we need to remind everybody it's not when we disagree, it's when we agree when you can win your league and win that catch. Here's what we're gonna do. We actually we have before we get into any of the games and are as always here on the fatas of sports Radio, and we're going give our flagships as game flowing geniuses, those diamonds

in the rough and those fantasy from gazes. Forget about it. But first of all, check it out. We have a mail bet question that we want to get in. We have the White Captain from Los Angeles. He is in the playoffs and hills. He's got a flex option question. He's got a couple of people listen. He's got theo ritic, but theoretic missed a bunch of practice this week with that risk injury and did not play last week. He's got a couple of other options for his flex spot.

He wants to know if it's Willie Snead, don trelle Inman or also in that game for Santiago, he was able to pick up Kenneth Farrow. Where do you like in the flex spot? This is in a PPR league, he's in the playoffs. You gotta help out the white captain out in California. But Mike, Well, first off, you know, I mean I through shade on him already, but I'm throwing out me at Faroh he can't cask pro. I don't think see Hillman. I actually think Hillman is gonna

wind up being in the past protection uh role. And as that game evolves, Gonna Rivers is just gonna be chucking. Yeah. Man, I'm gonna get into that a little bit later. Willie Steed has really been bloom or bust the entire season. And for me, if we were talking about a flex spot, we're not talking a wide receiver to a wide receiver. Three. But I'm looking for is a nice solid floor. I don't want the person that I make in the decision from my flex spot to be why A point angrily

at my screen and said, I Loslau are you? I lost close? Are you? And I don't think that's gonna happen with dontrelle M and I think in a PPR league and this is PPR setting correctly, Greg, And you know, I think the Inman is a guy who's he's established a really, really nice floor. He's one of my flagships this week. I got him as a diamond, nice and cheap on DFS. Will beyond that, as you said, they're gonna be throwing the ball, they're gonna be behind in

this game. There's not gonna really be a semblance of a running game. And he's someone even without a touchdown, who can give you a nice cushion in the flex where he's not really that risky. I gotta go with Inman, assuming that Riddick is out by some stretched Riddick is looking spry and it's going to start in that game. I think you know, he's also shown a ridiculously high floor, not only just catching the ball out of the backfield of getting some Russian attempts as well. But I gotta say,

a seeking man, we'll sing the song. I'll we'll listening to the song. We get the flagships, Okay, family, Uh for sure, for sure, for sure, you know I'll take any opportunity to sing a song, and I also in that situation like the in men WHOA. But I do think the ooranics health is the most important question when we get to that question. One more thing I want to talk to you about. You know they came out

this week. I know how much we've talked on the Fantasy Freestyle before even going back to that Dion Sanders vo Jackson time in the baseball season when we were talking about the skills competition in base but salad days. Have you seen that they are coming out with a skills competition at the Pro Bowl Man, they are looking there's a best hands competition, there's an accurate passer competition, there's like an obstacle course relay competition. And my favorite,

they are playing dodgeball. A game of dodgeball, straight up middle school offense style. Weren't to Todd Gurley, how do you think about dodgeball? First of all, is that your favorite of the for I say, obviously? Second of all, what position in the NFL do you think? Do you want guys and you want quarterbacks that will just be able to earn it the best? Do you want what wide receivers to catch it at the agile? Do you want running backs? What do you want like offensive lineman

on your dodgeball team to act as human shields? What do you think would be the best bro um and what do How do you think a dodgeball game goes to the Pro Bowl? I know in the past here on the Fantasy FREESTYFF you Rocks have been an advocate of the skills competition before. This is the NFL doing something actually fun. What say you? Um? You know I'm gonna be Debbie Downer right here. And this is a terrible idea. Whether a c L one time stand in Hawaii.

I think it's like in a beach volleyball game, and it's it's it's in my and in my mind side, Like you said, dodgeball, and I just I saw Dr James Andrews, you know, like I was like either either through throwing it or you know, someone trying to just like catch a ball. I don't know. I mean, I think they'll definitely, I'm and I hope this is like second and third trains. I hope they're giving guys a chance. This is gonna be the Pro Bowlers is a Pro Bowl?

He oben Derby doesn't necessarily need to be guys that are in the All Star Game. I thought maybe they've taken a more expanse to you. What I will say, though, is that I think that I'm looking at cornerbacks here seeing cornerbacks think they could catch it and then drop it and then the out. I will say, though, but I think everyone in the not everyone, but almost everyone in the NFL has a b B above average arm.

You know, like when we come to what are not even those dudes though, I'm sure we're the quarterback of their middle school team. Shout to middle school. It keeps coming up. But you know what is is there like a dodgeball, as a dodgeball volleyball? Is it like there's an official dodge ball? Those things that are also like kickballs, I think those are the official dodgeballs. And if you could dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball. Show

you you know, I hope to see the kickers. I want to see the kicker to play kickball though, kickball, kick a ball, home run derby. You heard our first. This is not the first fan that rocks. This is not the first time that rock that's been lobbying for a different event in the skills competition. When we come back though, but we're gonna do Rox and Speeds. We're gonna drop stats over beats. It's the Fantasy Free Style and the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. We're getting into week fifteen.

It is liking your semi final. We're gonna give to you that. We're gonna give you some good DFS values so you could win some extra cash. You might be having to do a little bit of shopping for your fam. Rox and Speeds are your fan. We're holding you down on the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Ah, I want winners. I want people that want to win.

I would rather play with ten people and just get penalized all the away until we got to do something else rather than play with when I know that right now that person is not sold out to be a part of this team. Cannot play with him, cannot win with him, can coach with him, can't do it. It's back out of the break, you know what it is.

This is the Fantasy Freestyle, and we're gonna go real quick around the league highlighting some of the games where we think there's gonna be some prime fantasy matchups that you can take advantage of. Jim Bob Cooder. He is playing people starting to come around. I've been off I mean, if he's a Disney movie waiting to happen, as far as I'm concerned. So, you know, basically the Detroit Lions nine for the New York Giants nine and four. This a little bit maybe of jockeying going on here. I

don't know. I mean, I don't think the Giants are gonna be able to catch the Cowboys, even though they do hold that tiebreaker. For the Detroit Lions have really been looking pretty good lately as that defense has come around. How do you feel those feeds about matt staff from that Jim Bob Cooter offense with the glove on the hand and the dislocated finger. You have a little bit worried about Matthew Stafford and that dislocation with his finger.

One thing you know is that Matthew Stafford is tough. He is going to play through that. He is actually garnering MVP consideration at end to one odds, he is the fifth choice for the NFL MVD at this point. He is going to play through it. But I think light car who had like not the first game back with the second game. Um, you know, in a cold situation, they are going to met life. That is why I think the five points of the spread is deserved. Matthew Stafford with an armam a little bit more and how

he's going to adjust to that glove. I also don't know if we're gonna have Theo Rittick back or not. It looked like a fade of complete after he missed last week, but he missed a bunch of practice time this week. I'm not sure. I think he might find up in a dan time decision. And listen, this Giant defense is imposing. They are seven in deep pensive dv o A. That has been a lot. You know, it's different without Jason p r call. But here's what I

think is interesting. The New York Giants are actually featuring now three pretty good cornerbacks, the generous Jenkins. They signed first round draft pick Eli Apple and d R C and those guys I think a perfectly position to be able to cover the multifaceted attack oh Jim Bob Hood and the Detroit Lions OFFENSI it's very interesting because Detroit has multiple weapons. You know, you've got your bold into and your tain, so it could be an interesting match

up there on the giant side of things. So one thing I gotta say is I am a little bit scared of Eli. He life one pick you'll ask week against the Dallas Gadboys. It could have been three or four in my opinion, and I think she has been very bad. That's how I see this game. Rods will say you with this the you know, and the stats really bury you out there about the Giants offense really

going into the tank. They've actually really averaged the thirties first most yards in the league over the last three weeks. That's that's bad. You want to be at the first, second, third there? Yea, what was? What has happened though during that time increase in Odell Beckham having targets Forest fed to him. He's actually received almost of the team targets over the last three weeks, up from about a quarter.

He's also been killing it at home. You know, o dB likes to play to a crowd, and there will certainly be a crowd at met Like Stadium on Sunday. I think that that alone makes him worthy of consideration in DFS, even though he is obviously a little bit

more been the highest wide receiver on the board. I believe this week on Fan twelve at eighties six hundred is the number one wide receiver on what I would so was he's in my fantasy He's in my DFS lineup, and we got out that on shot Goals on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network week yesterday, I talked about that odd is in my line of flour. I like that called X and I'll just say that too. I mean, like he is. He's proven beyond a shadow of a doubt.

His ability to catch the ball across the middle and then how's that from citywere on the field is unparalleled on them all the new players to be quite office walk. I'm gonna tell you something that is masking some of the problems with Eli Manning. Eli Manning is not completing balls downfields. He is very fairmly's lucky to have Odell Beckham, who's a guy who can take a seven to seven yards slant route and then go to the house. He's

real lucky. What other ones who want to spotlight here week fifteen, where are the big games ross yo speeds? I mean it's kind of a it's the haves versus the have nots. It's it's the uh you know, maybe it's flyover country, but those in the frozen tundra I feel have been a little bit slept on at seven and six feets. Does Green Bay have it in them to make a run this year? Is it been mathematically possible? It is mathematically possible, and it actually brings me to

an interesting point, Rocks. Uh. They're going to be some very very interesting games in Week seventeen shaping up, and I think the Green Bay Packers, who you're referencing, is going to be one of them. They stand two games back of the Lions. But as we saw in the NSC North, you know the game we just talked about, the Lions have an interesting matchup against the Giants this week. The Lions at seven and six have a excuse me, The Packers at seven and six have a game at

Chicago that we're gonna talk about. Gotta think they could win that. Then hev Minnesota at home, then they finished at Detroit. That Week seventeen game could be a big deal in the NFC North. We have Giants Redskins in the NFC East that's a huge game, and we have Titans, uh Texans in the a f C South. Those are all huge Week seventeen games. But yes, they have been slept on, so you'd like Green Bay in this one. But who have been running back? Who's the running back

in green Bay streets? I think even more so if you're in the season long league, Rogers man, you want him for his upside, particularly in a matchup like this. It's gonna be freezing cold. I mean, we're in New York City, recording live from New York City. It currently it's funny. It's funny. Eight in New York feels like fifteen there. It's gonna be zero and feels like Jesus. I wish I watched this game on television. Aaron Rodgers has a tight He's got a tight hamstring. Is he

gonna be able to play? He be able to light it up? I don't know. I think that he has earned the benefit of the doubt, and I would say that while I would skew away from necessarily playing him in UH in DFS at eight five hundred, in any season long league, as long as you know that there's a guarantee he is going to be playing, and it's a one o'clock games, that should be an easy decision.

For you to make you've got to trot him out there with confidence, and that's the Chicago team that really has not been showing much on the Chicago side of things. I do think that the freezing cold temperatures maybe shape up a little bit better for Jordan Howard to finally see a little bit of game flow working in his

favor in the second half. If they're able to keep it within ten points, seven points at least through the end of the third quarter before a Green Bay blows the doors off of them, I think Jordan Howard could be a sneaky great play against a Green Bay defense that certainly has shut down the run. But also I think Jordan Howard himself is proving that he's a better

back than a lot of people thought he was. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean Jordan Howard probably one of a waiver wire pickup for some and didn't get drafted in some weeks. It's going to be someone who's on a lot of championship teams. You're right, though, Green Bay Packers have been much better against run than they have been against the past recently, and the Bears have al Shan Jeffrey coming back. I think this could be an opportunity for you to ride al Shan right away in DFS, you might want

to get take a look at him, Hey rocks. Where else we go? In big matchup spotlight games, we drop stats over beats. It's the fantasy freestyle on the Fantasy sports radio networks. We have time for one more spotlight game here in week fifteen, as people prepare for their fantasy semifinals, we drop stats over beats. Where you want to go to close out Week and A fifteen spotlight games? Yo? Man, I was pretty hungry. I kind of like the barbecue,

So I'm taking us to Kansas City. Man. Interesting a game with the Tennese Titans and the Kansas City Chiefs and more so interesting. Do you feel like the national media has been treating the Chiefs as a three lost team? I don't. I don't think that they're really looking at them. The Chiefs are not other than Tyree Hill and his flashy ass plays. Props a Tyreek Hill for making them, But the Chiefs have flown as far under the radar

as a team possibly can. They've done it by being boring, and they've done it also, But I feel not being that great. But the Chiefs you'll look out for the Chiefs. These are two teams that have been underrated all season and this is a playoff matchup to Kansas City. Chiefs have won twenty of their last twenty three regular season games and Exotic smash Mouth has traveled. Marcus Mariota starting to take care of the ball. He is QD five. You would have never thought that going into this season.

I believe the Tennessee Titans are actually crying to win the a f C South because I continue to fade with the Houston Texans and Exotic smash Mouth with Derrick Henry even back. They are going to continue to roll run the ball. This team ran forty two times last week to Marco Murray twenty one carries ninety two yards and a touchdown, Derrick Henry twelve carries forty two yards. They will run the ball be who we think they are. You're right, though, Kansas City may continue to be able

to manage the game. Feel it speeds, and I gotta say, I gotta tip my cap right now to Marco Murray. Who's a guy that when that When that deal got signed, I laughed, I sat back and laughed. And when certain people in leagues I were in, I thought totally reached for DeMarco Murray. I laughed. The stats do not lie. He's got over eleven hundred yards on the ground, over three hundred yards through the air. He's got forty five catches. He's got twelve total touchdowns. This is through thirteen weeks.

I mean, did people didn't? Is that just the effect of running a player into the ground? And where does that? Where does that? Where does Derrick Henry? Where does Derrick Henry factor in more so than he has earlier over those last few games? Or are they just gonna keep riding DeMarco and letting Derrick Henry spell him when he needs to be spelled Listen to The original plan was for them to use Derrick Henry more and for as

the season went on. But then Derrick Henry got hurt, so DeMarco Murray had to tough through that injury and he has done a great job in doing so. Listen. Another great player over the last month has been Travis Kelsey. He has the number one tight end over the last four weeks down the stretch of reliable tight end option. There you have it. We dropped stats over beat. We are the Fantasy Freestyle, Rocks and Speed. What do we

come back. We're gonna give you our flagship segments. Those are the game flow geniuses, the Diamonds in the rough, and the fantasy from Daisies from Get About It, Rocks and Speeds on the Fantasy Sports and Radio Network. That's a foodiaz. How do you know to fool gazing? You looked at it from Creuseckers? Should fake? Hey? I know the f gazing. That's a foiaz. How do you know to fo gazing? You looked at it for Creuseckers? Should fake? Y? I know the gaing? Yeah, you know what it is?

We dropping stats over beats is the Fantasy Freestyle, Rocks and Speeds getting you ready for Week fifteen of the NFL season. And there's actually a good chance that if you've been listening to Rocks and Speeds for the season, you're probably still live in your fantasy playoffs because we give you everything you need to win your league and win that cash. We're gonna get you that DFS and this is where you're gonna really get some values. This is our flagship segment that we do here on the

Fantasy Freestyle. We're gonna give you our game flow geniuses, where we analyze a game or two and let you know which players are gonna really give you the game flow to support you. Um, we're also gonna give you

our diamonds in the rough. That's where we look real deep, like don the Jeweler of Lefty from Mulberry Street, and we let you know if it's a real diamond in the rough some good value associated with those fan duel prices, or we'll give you the fantasy fool gazies and forget about a ross where you want to go first, man, let me open it up to you, Rocks, how do you feel about this? How do you feel any added pressure?

Because it is week fifteen and people are in the playoffs and people really need to get that holiday cash? Do you feel any pressure? You're just gonna just gonna give out these winners. I mean, there's a couple of things that I never feel in this world. First of all is pressures. Pressure, Second of all is guilt. The third of all, I'm a heart of so gold is happiness. Now, I'm just messing with you'all. Holiday spirit. Um, I'd like

to go. I'd like to go to the diamonds. I got a couple of wide receivers on the diamond tip, uh that that I think are really good options. One of them is is a bottom barrel upside option. And I'm certainly not alone and recommending him. But J J. Nelson, J J. Nelson, you know, it's a guy that if you just had to imagine a football player named J. J. Nelson, you would think he was probably a deep threat, maybe weighing in like one eight five max. And he fits

that to a thief. But sometimes stereotypes can be your friend. J. J. Nelson has connected a couple of times this year with Carson Palmer for deep plays down the field. The reason that he's so attractive this week, and what maybe lost all of the news that he's been picked up by the Patriots, is that Michael Floyd was cut by the Arizona Cardinals after a d Y this week. You know, Aaron Uh, you know, Michael Floyd was also popped or

a d Y when he was at Notre Dame. Kind of strange to the catholical be exhibiting such behavior in tallendar right now, we do not want to make those implications, Rocks. But what I will say though, is that while the Saints defense. They showed up actually last week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who was the offense that let him down. They've been improving. It's largely been improvements against the run. They've only been marginally better against the past, and now

they're dealing without Kenny Vicarroll. One thing I will say is that you're gonna really with with John Brown Smoky still having that sickle cell thing, You're gonna really really see some targets going the way of J. J. Nelson. The only game this year we had more than seven targets, he went for eight catches, seventy nine yards and two touchdowns.

That is definitely more than you can possibly expect. But I think easily he can reach five catches and seventy five yards with a good chance for a touchdown at a bottom barrel price at a we've got to sell it before the holiday season price on fan duel for five thousand dollars. I think that he is a diamond in the rock. I like that a lot rocks. And here's how much I like it. First of all, J J.

Nelson only seventeen percent owned in leagues. Okay, you can go out there and get him in that number two roll for the Arizona Cardinals. But check this out, Rocks, I am staying in that game from my first diamond with a lot of the same stuff you said. Against that Saints defense that is thirty in the NFL, giving up twenty points a game. Here's where I'm going for my diamond. I'm going to Jermaine Gresham in that same

game with everything you said. Check this out. I think that it's gonna be Gresham that's actually gonna get a touchdown in this game. He's a safe little floor. In the last month, he has been getting six targets and wore a touchdown for the last month. I think he can take with that, and with the lack of Floyd and against this matchup back at home against the Saints, I like Jermaine Gresham a lot of the same things

you're talking about that you also know. I always love to look at these over under totals, and this New Orleans Saints Arizona Cardinals game is an over under right now of fifty one and climbing. I think there's a lot of production to be had. This is gonna be a time where Drew Brees is also looking to shake off some poor performances recently going zero touchdowns and seven interceptions in his last few games, that I think is gonna be getting back and forth. Arizona is gonna have

to do something besides fifty. You like j J Nelson, I like Jermaine Gresham. Those are diamonds to find that the Arizona Cardinals offense. Where else you want to go? Rocks, Yo, I mean I'm going a place that part please because I really think he's gonna shine bright like a diamond in the night this week, but partially also because I want to take home and unofficial and unspoken until this point gentleman's bet of how many times can you mention the same player as a diamond or as a game

plow genius. You didn't know about this bet, speed. I made it with you. I put it in white text at the bottom of an email which you agreed to it. Um, I'm going with Julian Edelman one more time. Well sixty four. You know, I understand completely that Denver has been locking down opposing passing games, and I also understand that, you know, last week him and Brady had a little bit of a sideline blow up. He got yelled at that's not bolted.

But but I will say is that more so than any player in the league weekend and week out since Gronk has gone down, Julian Edelman has made up for a little bit of his lack of aid and has had a breakout over the last couple of weeks since Bronc has been out. It looks like Brady is now turned into him, and people on the outside now his his and and as as as the as probably the best inside receiver is still in the league in terms

of the way the quarterback looks to him. If you look at his targets per price, which is not something necessarily your shout to everybody who breaks down those metrics that I used to, you know, help me understand where I think that the players are gonna be the next week. But targets per price on fan duel, I think it's a really really good metric. Julian Edelman is only sixty four hundred this week. He's seen a huge uptick and

targets over since Gronk has gone down. As I said, but if you even look at the entire season through thirteen games, he has a hundred and twenty nine targets if you basically give that ten a game, we'll call it roughly, and it's been more lately. That's like sixty four hundred dollars on fan duel per target speeds. I did it last week. I did it again this week.

I ran a requstion ran refrestion analysis, and I think that he's going to be a ridiculously high floor wide receiver three price with someone who can very, very easily sneak into that wide receiver to range. He's in the same range as Tyree Hill, who I know you like this week, Terrell Prior, and Michael Thomas. I like him better than all of them because of that high floor. And for me, from me, my man, Julian Edelman, ride or die and perhaps die with Julian Edelman six diamond yo,

I'm shiner. Alright, alright, you know listen, if you listen to Fantasy Freestyle, you know that Rocks is no stranger to liking Julian Edelman. We will discuss the terms, oh our Gentleman's bed and maybe get back at it a little bit later on, but check it out, rocky, um. We can make that bet. We can make a bet. What do you think is going to happen with the New England Patriots and Julian Edelman. I see Julian Edelman this week, uh sixty four hundred on the fan? Do well?

I like him to wind up with at least thirteen point five points on the fan duell then that's half point pp all right, that's half point PPR. So for him, that's a little bit of a tougher mark to reach. Now making fifteen, you like your boy Tyreek Hill. You're gonna talk about him in a second. Maybe you take Tyreek Hill same price. You think Tyree Hill is gonna have a better game. They're the same price. Both, they're both, they're both sixty four hundred, sixty five hundred. Tyreek Kill

may actually be slightly more expensive. Or I'll give you Tyreek Hill. All right, I'll take Tyree Hill. You'll take your boy Julian Edelman here in week fifteen. That's a gentleman's bad Holla clap on it. You check it out. Rocks in another wide receiver that I think is an actual diamond in the rough that I want to give him here. That this is Speeds and Finn statistician on Fantasy Freestyle and the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Sammy Watkins,

you know, checked us out. They are playing the Cleveland Browns and that horrible defense. Browns defense thirty second in the league in d v O A, thirty feet in the NFL. They give up three hundred and nineties six yards a game, They give up twenty eight point eight points a game, and check us out. Here's my theory. Sammy Watkins now actually has a stretch coming back from injury where he has played in three games in a row and he has gotten an increase in his snaps

for the three games in a row. He's coming out and he is again practiced. He practiced this week, got in limited sessions into full sessions. He's going to play and against this Brown's defense. Here's the other thing. You've been hearing reports the last couple of weeks that the Buffalo Bills are not necessarily certain about Tyrod Taylor after this season. This is a game where Tyrod Taylor and Rex Ryan for that matter, need to pad their stats and add that resume. And that looks good to me

for Sammy Watkins going deep over the top. I think there will be a shot for Sammy Watkins as the Buffalo Bills look to put a stamp on their quality season and maybe maintain themselves as a contender. With the loss of Tannehill, with the schedule of the Denver Broncos, the Buffalo Bills are still technically in it. And I think this is where they roll at home against the Cleveland Browns. And I think Sammy Watkins could be in

line for some production. I know you might be scared of him because of this injury history, but I like to roll him out this week production for Sammy Watkins, He's a diamond for a week fifth team. Also, your boid tyree Kill that you wanted to mention you wanted to go meet into a live gentleman's bet. That's okay, I see how you want to build your street. Yes, I like to reek Hill in this matchup at home

against the Tennessee Titans. The Tennessee Titans are thirtieth in the NFL against the past and what's most notable is that it is actually the number two cornerback for the Tennessee Titans that has actually been getting burned. Second the options on the opposing team from Tennessee have been doing it. This is where the return of Jeremy Macklin. Even though he only caught one ball. I think he still positions

himself as the outside receiver. It's I re kill as the person the Chiefs have been trying to feature and get the ball to. And not for nothing, he will also be a threat in the special team's game as you're back taking it back back to those old days of where where dynamite talents with the house kick and punt returns. I like, so if you like that so much, you should not make that gentleman's bed. But that is my next game flow genius. Hey Rocks, where are we

going for your game flow geniuses? Huh yo, I'm gonna. I'm gonna. I'm gonna stick with the with the same game we were talking about, that Buffalo game. The Buffalo game. Basically, we're attacking the Browns. You know, for me, this is the same recipe that I have on last week with success with Jeremy Hill running back first the Browns. This week,

Buffalo is at home. As you said, you know, beyond Buffalo fighting for a potential spot in the playoffs if everything breaks absolutely right, this is Rex fighting for his job. You know, he's fighting for his job, and you know this might be the last stop for Rex after flaming out, you know, in New York, and then flaming out again in New York, but slightly more upstate. And they're playing a Brown team that just there. They're blunt guts trash. The term I use often r G three. He's not

an NFL starter. They're playing the Browns are playing not for potentially a playoff spot, not for respectability, not for anyone's job. They're playing for the number one pick. They have no upside in winning the game. Buffalo, on one hand, runs the third most in the league in terms of percentage. Is gonna be a bad weather We've talked about the horrible Cleveland defense. Buffalo. They're tied for the league lead at home with three point seven offensive touchdowns at home.

And on the other side, who do you like? No, no, who do you like? Who is your game flow genius? Then we're talking about that game, But what was your game genius in? Ain't ty Rod Taylor. It's your boy Lyshawn McCoy For nine thousand It's hard. I was trying to make the case first and kind of bury the lead with that nine thousand dollars. Do you think he's worth that price tag this week weekift, I think he is. I think you know, I was trying to make the

case first yo. Against the Browns defense, even teams that are not nearly as run heavy as the Bills, They're running basically two thirds of the time in the fourth quarter against them. I really really think that there's no way McCoy does not see at least high teams to low twenties and carries, particularly in the second half. Again, we go for floor as much as we do for ceiling. I don't see any way he flops. He actually has double digit points in every single game this year on

fan duel. He's what I like to combine. It's a very very high floor with that astronomical ceiling. You've seen him score three touchdowns in a game this year. You've seen him have a couple of those fifty sixty plus yard touchdown scampers. I think, though, the thing that's gonna put him over the top, even if he shut out a little bit in the first half from the end zone, is a second half carries. And that's why he is Lashawn McCoy. That's the key here, the game flow genius.

Even at nine thousand dollars, which is expensive. Hey, we just we just got our bonuses. It is expensive. If you've got bonuses, maybe you can spend up. I'm gonna give them, uh, you know, I'm gonna give him a couple of uh game flow genius is. I'm gonna give him a bonus game flow geniuses because I want to give him a couple of cheaper options at running back. First of all, I really like DeVante freemant DeVante Freeman at against that historically bad San Francisco for defense that

will be traveling west to east. I actually think that Julio Jones, if he does play, might be a decoy. They might rely all the more in the Dome on Devonte Freeman against that bad San Francisco run defense. He has been getting into the end zone, and he is

not allergic to huge games. And at seventy seven hundred, I think he is worth it at slightly less money than some of the guys you are saying the other However, my last game flow gene is my actual game flow genus is Lamar Miller, and this is your boy at seventy two hundred for the Houston Texans. The thing is you have to Faign, rock Oswald, rock Oswader even last week a hundred and forty seven yards and strown interceptions.

I have no idea how the Houston Texans are seven and six, but in this matchup at home within the division with the bottom of the division, with the Jacksonville Jaguars, what the one thing that the Texans have been doing is going to Lamar Miller. Lamar and Miller had twenty one carries from hundred and seventy yards. He did get into the end zone, and he has been getting over twenty carries again for the like two of the last three games. I think three of the last games they

are going back to him. I think this team realizes that rock Osweidler is not their ticket to the playoffs, and they're going to go back to Lamar Miller and against this Jacksonville team which is three against the run, Lamar Miller for seventy two hundred, I think the game flow supports the Houston Texans running the ball and trying to add Lamar Miller win then this game. Thus the game flow genius for speeds that's been statistician in week fifteen.

You know speeds, I really like that and you know Miller has really with the higher workflow looked good. The only thing that I worry about he's missed occasionally chunks of games. But you know, we'll see how that is. Hopefully can get over those myrid injuries. Being banged up a bit. My second game flow genius guy talked about at the top of the show. I'm just gonna say real quick, dontrell In mand dollars, good floor play, solid PPR option. He's going to hook up the White captain

this week. And I think also the thing is is that Oakland's gonna get right after a letdown clunker last week. They're gonna put up some points against that San Diego defense. Are gonna be throwing in the second half. On the San Diego side, you're gonna see Philip Rivers and dontrell In Man and he does have speeds the best song in the league. That's where all our it's always sunny in the Philadelphia. People out there rocks. The one thing we still have to do is tell them who they

need to forget about as they go to their semifinals. Okay, if you are listening to us, you've been holding you down for a while. We drop stats over beats. It's the Fantasy Freestyle. Check it out. You know we gotta give him our fantasy from day zies in the Rocks. I know that this person has probably led many teams to the fantasy playoffs, but I'm telling you right now, I am very, very nervous about my first fantasy fo days. This is the guy who was second in the NFL

with twelve hundred and three receiving yards. This is wide receiver five. This is t Why Hilton. He is my frow daisy for week fifteen and years why Rocks listen to Dante moncrief injury? You think that would help t Y Hilton? No, no, no, that makes t Y Hilton the first, second, and maybe third option for Andrew Luck in the passing game. And when you have our boy when they make it a trip to Minnesota, they have our boy Xavier Bumpy Row covering him. He has taken

away he leade receivers before. And to be honest, this Minnesota defense at home is much stronger playing for the Pirate Mike Zimmer as their coach. YO. The other thing, I want to tip my cap here to Terence Newman at the age of thirty eight on the other side of the ball. It's also playing very well, so they have options here. They can they at times can see Newman straight up on a guy like Philip Dorset because Moncrief is not playing, and and even roll coverage to

t Y Hilton. I am worried also about the Minnesota pass rush getting to Andrew Luck in this one, who has been banged up a lot. It all said and done, I don't think the Colts put up, you know, thirty points in this one. I think they only make about fourteen points. You gotta hope t Y Hilton gets in the end zone and against this Minnesota defense, it could be hard. That's why I know you gotta roll him out in your season long league, because he's one of the guys who got through there and you hope he

is what you thought he was. But for me this week, t Y Hilton gay forget about yo speeds and I hear everything you just said there, and I'm gonna put another guy out there as a fantasy foo Ghayze this week who put a lot of teams on his back and got them to that Promised Land, including the Dallas Cowboys. And I'm talking about Zeke Elliott at eight five hundred on fan do Well, I just have a bad feeling.

You know, the Bucks defense, the narrative, it was written, no nas, it was written that there were a terrible defense. There were hemorrhaging points, they were a disaster. The laughable Rams team we talked about earlier put up thirty seven points on them, you know, but they have greatly improved. They're only allowing twelve point eight points over the last five games. They're completely shutting down the passing game. And I understand, Yeah, you're like Ezekiel Elliott is a running back.

Zack Prescott is hitting the rookie wall right now. Defenses are starting to figure him out. He's starting to make costly mistakes, and I think that you're gonna watch this Tampa Bay defense focus on shutting down the passing game, and I do not think that Zeke is going to be able to make up for Then you're gonna see three yards and a clouded thoughts, which is gonna be

cool in the first half. But in the second half, when Dallas is trailing in this game against a decent Tampa Bay team and underrated Tampa Bay a team, you were going to see him getting stopped. You're not going to see those chunk games. You're not going to see him getting into the end zone. And maybe it's a hunch more than anything, but Zeke has been a little bit, not a lot, and your most running backs would kill

for these stats. But he's been a little bit worse in the last five games than he was in the first eight. And maybe that's partially because of that big workload the Cowboys have put on his shoulders. And maybe, just maybe the Cowboys will take a look at that playoff picture playing in that late game on Sunday and say maybe, also, hey, we don't need to ride this guy for five carries. I don't know at DRED, I

do not think he's returning anything close to value. A lot of people would say you crazy to say that, but you you know what, family, I am crazy. Ezekiel, Elliott Foo Gazzy, Oh good, Bobby Rock is really important that you give him not one but too fantasy fool gazes. Let's go back to back with Rocks. Who else are you having to a boy year critical week fifteen. You know you're telling me. Julian Edelman is sixty four hundred dollars and Kelvin Benjamin his sixties six hundred dollars. What

sort of world is you living in? M I frol Gayzy last week. I told you they have been veried down on him and he has not delivered. You're gonna ride the cotails? Do you think back to back hun Kelvin Benjamin from Gayzy? Why you don't like him this week? I mean I don't like him ember, but just just just again, we talked about other people. I know you like Tyreek Hill. You've also got tell Prior Michael Thomas. Those are both guys that I'd rather start in that

wide receiver three price range. And Washington is a great matchup on paper to the passing game, and I guess that's why you saw his price go up this week. But Kell not man. He's only finishing in the wide receiver three range in daily Fantasy on a good week, and he's busting worse than that normally. The ex teammate Josh Norman should lock him down and probably have some words for him too. I bet they're gonna it's gonna be chippy, real chippy with that Washington football team. Kim

has been a complete mess. I think if they're gonna succeed in this game. In the Carolina passing, It's going to be targets funneled to Greg Olson. G reg eight floor crew um Watchington just terrible against the tight end. You know Olson's gonna lock him down. Don't like Calvin Benjamin. You hear that, You hear a riverboat Ron The riverboat is sinking. He's taking the ship down with him. He's also taking the young wide receiver down with him. Hate

Calvin Benjamin. This week, there's many many better options in that same price range, including something where three four or five hundred dollars Sheeper Gazey forget about him, man, forget about him. Gonna be cold in Carolina. Rox is representative back to back call and Kelvin Benjamin. I'm doing the same thing with my last food gazzy, and that is Jeremy Hill. I've been down on him for a long time. Rocks,

you were right on him last week as well. He broke out with the twenty five carries a hundred eleven yards and he got in the end zone. However, that was against the Cleveland Brown. This week against the Pittsburgh Steelers at home, I think it is going to be much different. You are not going to want to pay for the point for Jeremy Hill because, as Rock says,

when you chase the points, the points start running. This week also main facts have the return of aj Green, and that would obviously changed the juxtaposition of this offense and the what I think would be a much different game. When you are not rutting out the plot against the tree Willen Browns, You're gonna see more of believe it or not, Rex Birkhead in this game than Jeremy Hill. Jeremy Hill, in my opinion, Week fifteen crazy forget about there.
