It's so hot that we sweat steam. It is a football Friday. So here's what we're gonna do.

You know how we do. I'm gonna react to Thursday night football. I hope, like me, you have the Baltimore Ravens defense in my home league. They put up thirty nine points. I'm sitting pretty but it is still early and we shall see. We're gonna react to Thursday Night Football. We're gonna give you my take also on that Kiko Alonso Joe Flacco take hit. I've got something I think the NFL needs to implement. I gotta take on that play.

We'll get to that a little bit later on. As you know, on Friday, we talk about the home dogs, we talk about the double digit favorites, and I'm gonna tell you which ones are those you should actually stay away from this week, Week eight of the NFL season. What we're also gonna do is we're gonna beginning out speeds is d f S lineup. I have been cashing like woe left and right. I really like my lineup. And we may have a special guest who has been a friend of the show, come on back on and

talk DFS and talk world series. I'm talking about my man, Nick Leverani over there out there in l A. He's right now on a plane that got delaid. We don't know if he's gonna land in time or not, but if he can, he will join the cipher and give you his DFS lineup Week eight as well, I'm gonna give you some more diamonds and fool gazes from other Spotlight games, and as always, we are going to take your calls as I try to help you get a

One hit that thumbs up button right there. You know we like that. I want to let everybody else know you like that as well. We'll take some of your questions some of your comments later on in

the show. But as I told you, we have a poll question up. Which home dog do you think has the best chance to win? Outright? In Week eight? The New York Jets are home dogs. They're getting five points against the Atlanta Falcons. The Washington football team is getting two points at home against the Dallas Cowboys in an NFC East matchup. The Detroit Lions on Sunday Night football are getting two and a half points against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Or do you think none of them are going to

win outright, as you know. Also, Game three of the World Series kicks off, it'll be Lance mccolors and you Darvish as the series switches down to Houston. You Darvish, in his time with l A has had a zero point for whip. Will that continue? We shall see? Come all right back. You know what it is. We're dropping stats over beats.

Y know that kid is Nicee Little Tribe cool quest love Here on the Fantasy Freestyle. Chris Bavona, the Manimal holding it down on the ones in tunes. It is a football Friday, yo. That was like a very vicious roar right there. Maybe Chris could be like one of those cats right there for Halloween. I think I'm gonna have to be in costume on Halloween. You see us here in this studio loving it if you're on the live YouTube stream. All right, but let's get to it.

Because it's a football Friday. We gotta give you the news and notes around the NFL. First of all, I don't know if you saw this already, but um Texans owner Bob McNair made an interesting comment. Hello made an interesting comment saying that he doesn't want the inmates running the prison. A lot of Texans were very upset about that. They threatened to walk out of practice today, and DeAndre Hopkins actually did. He did not practice, saying he was

very upset. The team is kind of behind them. There will be no discipline or anything like that. But this issue continues to show the great divide among not only our society, but among the NFL as well players front office. It continues to be an issue we shall see. Keep an eye on this as this develops, but d hop will not have any discipline or anything like that. He should be good to go against the Seattle Seahawks and the Legion of Boom in a matchup that does maybe

depress his value. But remember Sherman stays on one side, d hop is all over the field. I bet they're gonna try to find ways to get DeAndre Hopkins away from Sherman and to still get his targets wide receiver. And Quan Bolden apparently says he is attempting a comeback, okay, and he's been granted permission by the Buffalo Bills to seek a trade. I remember thinking that in preseason that Buffalo was a bad fit for him, and Kwan Bolden said he wanted two things in the team he was

playing with. One he wanted it to be a contender too. He wanted him to be down south. I don't necessarily think the Buffalo Bills fee either one of those. Here's an idea of somewhere where he might go. What about the aforementioned Houston Texans. Right they lost their tight ends, they got Will Fuller to blow the top off a stud in DeAndre Hopkins. What if they had an Kwan Bolden? Is that kind of chain mover on third down? For a young quarterback like Deshaun Watson who just got his

left tackle back as well. I think that could be interesting. Keep an eye out on that as the trading deadline hits next week. Alright, so, um there are. This week has actually been a little bit light on injuries. I'm knocking on wood over here. I don't want to jinx ourselves and have everyone go down this week, but last week was kind of light on in So here's the injury report for you. C J pro Sise for Seattle did not practice again today. He's got that ankle injury.

I think it's gonna still be J. D. Mckissic in the passing downs for them Detroit, remember they had to buy last week. They have Sunday Night football. Looks like Golden Tate is going to give it a go. He had that shoulder injury, had the bye week to heal up. It looks like he will go against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night. However, Kenny Golladay, also in that wide receiver corps, doesn't look like he's going to go. He is out four week eight with that hamstring. But honestly,

if you listen to the fantasy freestyle. You know, I do not believe in Kenny Golladay anyway. I think he's that one hit one. They're called a mambo number five um Removed from the injury report. This is interesting. This week Michael Thomas in New Orleans, he's good to go. That knee. Remember they were never really concerned about it. He is, in fact good to go as the Saints in the Dome take on the Chicago Bears. Wide receiver for San Francisco, Mark he's Goodwin is good to go

as well. Removed from the injury report. He was struggling with a back injury. Sounds like he could be good. And interestingly enough, I think there's gonna be garbage time potential for forty Niners wide receivers. You may hear a forty wide receiver in my DFS lineup a little bit later on. And here's something of note. Josh Norman might give it a go. It looks like he's gonna play as the Washington football team hosts the Dallas Cowboys this weekend.

I bring that up. We don't talk about defensive players much, but you know my narrative as it relates to Dez Bryant when Dez Bryant is facing a non elite cornerback, he blows up, but when he faces some of the best cornerbacks in the league, they tend to shut him down. Josh Norman and Dez have you know, they've been talking some smack as well. So watch what happens to Dez if Josh Norman does play. I actually think he's had success against Dez before. I think you temper your expectations

for Dez Bryant. And the last thing I want to tell you because I think you know, I've gotten the most questions on Twitter, most questions on the show about this guy. You know who it is. It's my guys, Stephen, can you digs it? He practiced again fully today, so that's two days in a row. It does look like he's gonna go. They wouldn't have made him take that trip across the pond the twerquin Ham London game if they didn't think he's gonna go. I've gotten a lot

of questions. Here's my thing on Stefon Diggs. I still think that there's the potential for him to not be at a hundred percent, to not be full of fully effective. Here's the way I would play it, and I have Stefon Diggs and my main D season long league as well. If you are favored to win, if you think you can win without him, go ahead and put someone else in that spot. Okay, for example, I have the Baltimore Ravens defense, so I'm up big, I'm favored to win

my matchup. I'm putting Mohammed Sanu in instead of Stefon Diggs because I want to play it safe. I don't want to take like the defecate the Mattress score. I don't want to take a zero. I don't want him to be a decoy. I don't want him to be out there for thirteen snaps and then reaggravate something. However, if you're projected to lose, if you need that home run play, if you need a guy like step Fawn Digs to blow up, then go ahead and ride with him. I know it would really suck to have him on

your bench and blow up. Trust me, it happened to me before. But I think if your favorite to win, you could play it safe and be conservative. If your favorite to need a guy like Stefon Diggs and I think you can run him out, I think he's more of a wide receiver to three this week as he still nurses his way back to health. With that growing, Okay, I want to talk about Thursday Night football real quick. Okay.

First of all, Alex Collins, I think is now a thing. Okay, Tony Romo was calling him like the Irish dancer, the river dance. He does have quick feet. He did torch the Dolphins eighteen carries for a hundred and three yards. When we do my fab budget Waiver Wire show next week on Tuesday, I'm gonna tell you I do, in fact believe in Alex Collins. And here's the other thing. This is gonna be the style for the Baltimore Ravens, especially if Ryan Mallett is under center for any period

of time. Okay, I think, much like the Jacksonville Jaguars, much like the Tennessee Titans, the way that the Ravens are gonna try to win games moving forward are going to be defense and the run game. And it looks like Alex Collins is the lead back there. Okay. The other thing is Buck Allen is still a thing. Also, He's gonna slide into that third down pass catching role,

and I think that is okay um. I told you I was worried about that over under because I was worried about defensive touchdowns, and the Ravens got to it helped my lineup. Maybe it didn't help you if you had the under as a lot of people thought with that low total. I think it was thirty seven and a half. Let me tell you though about my take on this. Kiko Alonso, Joe Flacco play. Fat football is a very fast game with the best athletes in the world. I say this when we saw that Davante Adams uh

Danny Trevathan play. I say this a couple of weeks ago, when we saw that Austin Safarian Jenkins play. And I say this right now, sometimes slow motion replays make things look a lot worse. When you saw that replay and you saw his head snap back, similar to with Davante Adams, where his mouth he's popped, similar to when you saw the A. S. J. La Ross the far eye touchdown that became a touch back hashtag game of inches. I think our technology has gotten too good. I really do.

I think our technology has gotten so good that you slow it down so much that you see everything. I think if they just ran it at a quarter speed. You have a little bit of like common sense involved, and what you would see is that Joe is going so fast. Not he's giving himself up because he's going feet first, but he's trying to get the first down, okay, and you have so little time to see like how you want to hit him? Listen. Was it an ugly play? Yes? Was it a dirty play? I don't think so. Will

he get fined? Probably? Should he got penalized? Absolutely, should he get suspended? I stopped just short there. I actually think when you're watching football, when you're watching football this weekend, tell me how many plays you see that because of the slow motion replay and how slow they can get it these days, how great they can get the pictures, It actually changes your opinion. I actually think replays should be like more like a quarter speed instead of the

incredible technology that they have now. But I digress on that. Let's look forward to some of the home dogs and some of the big lines in front this weekend in the NFL. First of all, the Jets are getting five points at home against the Falcons. This was plus four. It's gone up to plus five because a lot of people think the Falcons will take care of business. I am among them. I think the Falcons come in there

finally make a statement. I think this could be like a close game halftime in the third quarter, but I do, in fact expect the Falcons to pull away. I would lay the points in this one and take the Falcons. The Washington football team is getting two points against the Dallas Cowboys. I pass on this game. I don't like a division game. I expect this to be close either way. Two points is not enough for me. I think this is going to be a close game. I could see

it going either way. I would not lay Angie Shekels on this game. The game I like, though. The home dog that I like is the Detroit Lions and my man, Jim Bob Cooter. You haven't heard me talk about Jim Bob Cooter in a while, but I liked them in this one. You know, the Steelers on the road or a little bit different. And also, earlier in the week I talked to you about this rest disparity. I think

that's a big deal. The Lions coming off there by hosting a primetime game and welcome the Detroit the Pittsburgh Steelers, and they're getting two and a half point. Do you give me the Detroit Lions as the home dog that I think has a chance to win out right? As you know, the Lions are also in comeback mode, the cardiac kids the fourth quarter and those kind of tight games, and they're at home. Give me the Lions plus two and a half. When we come back. Here's what we're

gonna do. We're gonna open up the phone lines. As Aaron Judges back, all rise for the judge. I got a guy, Aaron Judge over here at Studio thirty four. We got people in the costume right here doing a thing. It's a holiday weekend. When we come back, We're to open up the phone lines, and I'm gonna tell you which double digit point favorite I would lay the point with and which ones I would not. When we come back. You know what it is, hashtag dropping stats over beats.

That's the fantasy freestyle with your boy, Dave Martinez Speeds, the spitting statistician. Come on back, ask me questions. I got you Hunter, Henry Sterling, Shepherd, Michael Thomas. These three NFL software cores are not due to slump. They're due to break out, just like the fantasy Sports Radio Network. In year two, things are only getting better. Make sure listen live and dell o the app F and T s y or Radio. ITA's free and it's twenty four seven the best Fantasy sports on ten. He's on the

Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle. Right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network is Dane Martinez speaks and spitting status Issian holding you down on a football Friday. And I gotta tell you something, Chris. Here at Studio thirty four and Rock and Riley's, there are a lot of people in costume. I got nuns walking by, I got Aaron Judged all Rise walking by. I even just saw Colin Kaepernick walk by. Everybody in

the holiday spirit. I hope you're having a great holiday weekend as well. Halloween right around the corner on Tuesday. And as you know, if you're watching live on the YouTube stream, we have decorated Studio thirty four in an appropriate fashion. I told you that I wanted to talk real quick about the double digit favorites. There's two double digit favorites this week, and then two that are like really on the precipice. Okay, The first is the Vikings

in London. They are minus nine and a half against the Cleveland Browns. I say you could lay the point in this one, all right. The Cleveland Browns are a dumpster at O N seven. You've got Kenny Britt in the doghouse. Hugh Jackson, who was known as like the quarterback Whisperer, doesn't know what he wants to do. Deshaun Kaiser is in and out. They went to Hogan, they went to Kessler. They're going back to Deshaun Kaiser. I think this is a horrible decision because why go back

to the kid against the Minnesota Vikings defense. This is one of the best defenses in football. You're putting the kid in a bad spot. What you need to do is set the kid up in a position where he could be successful. They gotta buy after this game. Why don't they just wait until after the buy more time to scheme some things, give the kid what he likes, and then right out with the kid for the rest of the season. That's what I would do. That's not what Hugh Jackson's gonna do. I think this is a

dumpster fire of a game. I think the Vikings win big. I would lay the points Vikings minus nine. I like that in London on early on Sunday morning. So that's one. Here's another one. I'm laying the points with the New Orleans Saints nine and a half at home against the Chicago Bears. Listen, the Saints have looked really good. And the thing is their defense is much improved. They're much improved to become like an average defense. They've also been

very opportunistic and are they're getting turnovers. I think there's something like seventh in the league in turnovers. And and the Bears don't trust Mitchell Robinski. He threw the ball seven times last game. He was like four or seven four a hundred yards and one of them was like a seventy yard pass. That's a recoin. They do not believe that they can give the keys to the car to Mitchell Robinsky. I think the Saints can put up points. I can see the Saints winning something, you know, thirteen,

something like that. The nine points don't scare me. With a high powered offense like the Saints, I believe in them. However, the Cincinnati Bengals are at home and they're going up against the Colts, and I know everyone loves this matchup. I have some Bengals in my DFS lineup as well that we're gonna go to in the next segment. But I don't like the Bengals minus ten and a half against anybody. The Bengals are a team that defecate the mattress just when you start to trust in them. I

think they win the game. I think they produce. I think it's good for fantasy, but I think the Colt to get a backdoor cover here. I would be okay with this, maybe at nine, but not at double digits. It's ten and a half right now. That extra half point really really scares me. I can see this being kind of game between seven seventeen kind of game, a twenty to ten kind of game. That extra half point really scares me. I don't think the Bengals should be

double digit points against anybody. I don't trust them just yet. I think they win, but I'm looking for a backdoor cover from the Indianapolis Colts in Week eight, and the last one is the Philadelphia Eagles are thirteen point favorites against the San Francisco forty Niners. All of this shapes up that the Eagles could cover this spread. San Francisco going West to East. Everybody loves Carson Wentz, everybody loves the Eagles. I think this could be a little bit

of you know what it is, Chris. It could be one of those fetti wop trap games. And there's something else I want to introduce you guys too. I listened to another podcast every now and then when I get my information sometimes and there's a thing out there what they call the close your Eyes Special. What that means is if a team underperforms the point spread one week by twenty one, you just play them the next week, regardless. The Niners were her six point home dogs last week

and they lost by thirty. This qualifies as a close your eyes special. And now with this huge line, everybody's on the Philadelphia Eagles. I would stay away from this one, but if you put a gun to my head, I actually think this game could be a little closer than you think. I think the Eagles win, but I wouldn't lay the thirteen points. Okay, I can see this being another back door cover. I know all the indicators, the West to East and winless team against the team with

the best record in the NFL. But for some reason, I think this could be a little bit closer than you might think. I would not lay the thirteen points for the Philadelphia Eagles this week. We got the poll question up right now asking you guys about the home dogs. Fort of you think that Washington has a chance to win outright at home in a division matchup. Alright, let's open up the phone lines. Okay, you know what it is. It's eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine.

We start off today. This is a new caller to the Fantasy Freestyle. I like new blood every now and then. It's Langdon out there in Utah. All right, Langdon, you're dropping stats over beats with the spitting statistician. How can I help you get a w and week gate, let's get it going on the Fantasy Freestyle. How's it going, Darren? I appreciate you taking my call. I have a trade question. So um, it's already went through and back out because he's one of my friends. So fair enough what you got?

I was offered Ingram for Dak who's your other quarterback? When? Yeah, I do it? I think Mark. Listen, listen, I'm gonna tell you Langdon right now, I do it. I like I like uh Mark? Ingram. Mark Ingram to me, I think I have him as my sixth or seventh ranked running back rest of the season, especially without Adrian Peterson. And to be honest, Langdon Where people don't realize is Ingram gets some work in the past game as well. He gets four or five catches a game. I love

mark Ingram. I've been talking about it all day. And if you have another quarterback like Carson Wentz, then yeah, deal from a position of strength. I think that's okay. You're just gonna need a quarterback. I think it's week eleven when the Eagles have their by, But that's okay. Do we tend That's fine? Um, I think that's okay. Then you find the stop gap for one week man. Yeah, I like mark Ingram. Don't back at Here's the other thing. If the trade goes through, don't ever back out, you know,

like do it man. But I like this trade. I like mark Ingram. I pull the trigger on it. It sounds like you already have. I think you're good to go. Thanks for making a call though. Next up here in the Fantasy Freestyle, we have Sergio Sergio is out there and Callie Sergio was going on dropping stats over beats. How can we help you get a w for week eight? What a big name man. I'm doing all right, trying to make it happen, trying to get everybody here at w what's up? How can we help? Al right? Hey,

you know I got two real quick questions. So I got a quarterback to Lima that I got going on. I have a Smith and Watson, right, you got bad matchups for both of them this week, Watson against Seattle and Smith against Denver. I prefer Alex Smith. I prefer Alex Smith because with against these bad matchups, give me the more veteran quarterback. Okay, I actually also this unrest with the Texans walking out on or de Hop walking out on practice and all that stuff. Give me Alex Smith.

I understand there's the no flies on, but give me. I like Andy Reid scheme in some things. And I'd rather Alex Smith against the familiar divisional foe than Deshaun Watson, the young kid for the first time in Seattle. At least Alex Smith is at home, right, at least Alex Smith has enough, the mini BI has extra rests. I don't like Watson going into Seattle in a nonconference road spot. Give me Alex Smith, all right? What's your other questions

in surgeon? All right? And then the second one is I got one flex spot open right now that I have Fuller in right now, and I want to know if I should put ju Ju in, go t Y Hilton. I'll go t Y Hilton. I do not like Will Fuller this week. Okay, listen up, Sergio, and you know this. Will Fuller has gotten like two touchdowns a game that's not sustainable. And the other thing is Will Fuller is

that like over the top deep threat. Seattle is the worst team for that because who's patrolling center field for Seattle? It's all pro Earl Thomas. Okay, so I don't think he gets those boom plays. I like t Y Hilton. I think Indianapolis is gonna be down. I think they're gonna have to throw I think Brissette is not as bad as people think. I like t Y Hilton in that spot over Will Fuller. Thanks for the call, Sergio. You can call it back anytime, any time, anytime. We'll

see about that. Uh. Next up on the fan to see freestyle, We're going to the Bay Area. It is rob out there in the Bay Yo, you're dropping stats over beats with the spitting statistician was good, Rob? How can we help on? Man? Ll uh so? Uh? I know you got and we're all excited for him to come back. He was before put on this morning thing. Do you know anything about that? No, I'm just I'm I'm scared. Bro. It's Halloween and I'm scared of Stefan.

Can you digs it right now? I love him, He's on my team too, Man, I love him, but something I don't know if he might be out there as a decoy. I'm worried about him reaggravating the injury. The Cleveland Browns were also not horrible against the past. Who would be your up the option? Men? I got h Mohamed and Hilton. Yeah, I would put both of them. I would put either one of them. And I personally, I'm gonna tell you I'm not recommending anything. I'm not

doing myself. I personally am putting in Mohammed sanw over Stefon digs this week. Okay, but I'm up right now because I had the ball more Ravens defense. If your favorite to win, I would go the conservative route, Rob. If you are a favorite to not win. You know, if you're playing one of the heavyweights, then you might have to go with Diggs. But I'm okay with Snow or Hilton in in place of can you digs it this week? I know he might go off, I know, but I'm playing it safe this week. I want to

see it first. I have, however, riding out Stefon Diggs after there by next week up next, we got Keith out there in Baltimore. Keith in Baltimore, You're on the Fantasy Freestyle, but we're up against the break coming up soon. So give me your question real quick, and if I gotta answer it after the break, I'll do that. What's up, Keith? All right? I me to Wilde Receivers. I have some new toper and punctious um. I got burned by telling people how much I hate Amari Cooper before. I still listen.

I still don't think Amari Cooper is the right answer. I still don't think Amari Cooper is the right answer. Man. I know, after his forty four point performance it could something, so feel free to disagree with with me. But I still don't think a MARII Cooper is someone you could ride out week a week man, I still need to see it again. I think he popped off like whoa last week in that Thursday night game. But I like functious his matchup against Tampa Bay, and I like SnO

getting consistent targets. Listen, you gotta put functions in there. I'm torn, man, I'll tell you snow, but if you go a Marie Cooper, I can't hate you, man, all right, So that's what I gotta say. Thanks for the call. When we come back, we got one more call. It's a friend of the show Pete out there and shallon.

Okay, Now, I got three running backs and need to play two. Okay, I got a Martin and Trek Cohen. H Wait a minute, excuse Swood? Is it Cohen or Smallwood? I could play both,

actually two out of the four, so both of them. Okay, listen, you know, man Cohen just hasn't been getting the opportunity lately. You see him on your lineup, He's got like three carries one catch, you know. So I'm I feel like he's now in that boom or bus category. So unfortunately for me, it's not Tree Cohen. Um, this is PPR yes, p Martin that d yeah, yeah. I like Smallwood. I like Smallwood. I like Smallwood, and I go Doug Martin. Okay, because mirab Doulah. I think that game Sunday night. I

think it's gonna be back and forth. I think it could be a game that does over and I think Theo Riddick will be on the field. A lot, give me Martin and give me Smallwood? All right, what's the last one there? And March was Vin four Booker and Evan Angram. Alright, here's the deal. Here's the deal, Pete, And thanks for the call, dial Delly, friend of the show.

I think Evan Ingram is the only guy out of all four of them that I'm like, really comfortable starting on a week to week basis. And it sounds like you already got him, Okay, Pete, so I would not do that, Like, why do you need Garrett Blunt? I don't think you need Garrett Blunt. What are you gonna do? Throw him and Smallwood one week? I don't think you're gonna do that. And honestly, Bennett the Black Unicorn, Uh, Evan Ingram is better. So get I think you stay

You were on the Fantasy Freestyle dropping stats over Beach's what's going on? Let's help you get a win for the week eight's going on? How you doing a good good man? I got a trade question, Go ahead lay it on me, all right? Man? So, um, I'm being offered Ezekiel Elliott and Calvin Benjamin or Jordy Nelson, um,

Derrick Henry and Mark go Murray. So you would have to give up the entire exotic smash mouth. Yeah, and you would get Zeke back. And listen. I like Kelvin Benjamin better than Jordy Nelson right now, especially because like we don't know what's going on with Brett Hunley, right We've seen how much a bad quarterback can depress all the receivers, and I think that, unfortunately, might be the case with Jordy Nelson. This comes honestly, Jason, This comes

down to your thoughts on Zeke. I personally, if you listen to the show, you know my point of view. I believe Zeke will play all year, Okay. I personally believe that this this legal proceedings, they're gonna kick the can down the road, okay. And I personally believe Zeke will play all year. If I'm wrong, then you're gonna hate me for saying. You know that about this deal? Right. I like if Zeke plays all year, then I like

the Zeke and Calvin Benjamin's side. Okay, but obviously all right, so that maybe want to take that risk, man, and and and you would be getting Zeke and KB here right, Yeah, listen, man, Fantasy is all all about taking some gambles, right and trying to have as many studs as you possibly can that you can blow up in the playoffs, right, And if you had the playoffs, if you make the playoffs and you're riding out Todd Gurley and Zeke Elliott, I

think that's your best path to a Fantasy championship. I don't think Jorge. I mean Jordy Nelson with Aaron Rodgers is a guy who can help you get to a Fantasy championship. Not so much with Bred Hunley. You know what I'm saying, Uh, Exotic smash Mouth. You gotta pick Henry or Murray every week. Murray has the hamstring. That's gonna be Fantasy whack a mole. It's gonna frustrate you.

You know what I'm saying. I think your path to a Fantasy championship is riding Todd Gurley and maybe Zeke Elliott and then listen if he gets suspended, your s O. Well, that's what it comes down to. I'm a gambling man, Okay, I would take that gamble. I would. I would run out with Zeke and Todd Gurley and have a week to week advantage until or unless Zeke gets suspended. But I'm telling you right now, Jason, personally, I don't think it's gonna go down. I think it's gonna happen. They're gonna,

you know, file more appeals and all that stuff. I think it's gonna be just like the Tom Brady thing where it actually gets decided in the off season. I do think Zeke is gonna miss some time next year, but hopefully by next year you're holding a fantasy trophy. That's the way I would play at, Jason. But I completely understand if that. You know, it is too much risk, and I'm scared of it because it is Halloween weekend, right but I would do it. I'd ride out and

I try to get myself Zeke and Todd Gurley. Alright, man, thanks for the call anytime. All right there, here's what we're gonna do. I'm telling you, guys, I like my DFS lineup this week. Guys, for Week eight, let me give you my DFS lineup, and I'm giving you at fan duel prices. Okay, so here's my DFS line up for a week eight. At quarterback. I love this matchup for Andy Dalton. Okay, Andy Dalton is my quarterback. I'm getting Andy Dalton at seventies hundred. He's going up against

those Indianapolis Colts. The Indianapolis Holds are thirty first ranked in the league in terms of defense and third first in the league against the past. Here's the other thing. Andy Dalton defecates the mattress all the time in prime time games when he's like stepping up in class against good teams. Right, give me Andy Dalton at home. Give me him at home against the thirty first ranked pass defense. You also get to save a little bit of money

this week. Okay with uh Andy Dalton. I'm not going up to Tom Brady or Drew Brees or dak or Scott or these guys like Watson or Wilson. Give me Andy Dalton at he is my quarterback. I also like this because I get to stack him with a J. Green. As you guys know, ever since Bill Laser became the offensive coordinator the laser I have. He's become a target monster. Look at this for a J. Green. Look at his

game log. Okay, in the last four weeks, Man thirteen targets, you know, seven nine and a tudd ten for one eleven and a tud got in the end zone against Cleveland as well. Okay, not as great. Last week for Pittsburgh was the second ranked past defense. That's different. It's Indiana Polist this week. I'm taking Andy Dalton as my quarterback. I'm stacking them with a J. Green. Okay, Up next that wide out, I'm going with Pierre Garson at six hundred.

I like Pierre Garson will be a diamond in the rough. I told you about this game already. I think Philly wins, right, but Philly also check this out. Philadelphia is thirty if in the league against the past, and they're best in the league against the run. I think San Francisco is going to try to throw in this game, and they're also gonna be down, in my opinion, in the second half. So these garbage time points they count just like anything else.

I think there's gonna be a lot of targets, a lot of opportunity, especially in the second half, for Pierre Garson. So I got A J. Green and Pierre Garson as wide outs. As my third wide out, I got a guy that the caller just asked about. I've got Kelvin Benjamin in my lineup. I like this matchup. They're up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They are twenty five in the league against the pass. So I like Cam and Kelvin Benjamin this week. And also listen, Kelvin Benjamin is

that red zone target? Is Cam's number one guy. Funcius has been growing in his role in the offense. But honestly, Funcius has also been banged up a little bit this week. I'm trying to bring it up right now. Funcious has had a little bit of an issue with his hamstring. He was a full participant in practice later on in the week. He should be okay, but I think it's more opportunity for Kelvin Benjamin. So my wide outs this week are A. J. Green at hundred, Pierre Garson at

sixty seven, and Kelvin Benjamin at sixty six hundred. These are prices on fan duel at my running back position. Give me Lashawn McCoy this week. I like Lashawn McCoy this week at eighty four hundred going up against Oakland. I think he also can get a little bit work in the passing game. I told you I was down on him earlier in the season because all fifty three men are gonna be in the box against Shady McCoy. But it seems to not matter. It seems to not matter.

He's going up against Oakland ranked defense in the National Football League. Listen and McCoy last week when I thought everybody was gonna stack up against him, ninety one rushing yards and five catches. Okay, and he's getting into the end zone. He finally got in the end zone last week. I think he gets in the end zone again this week against a bad bottom ten defense at home. I think the Bills ride Lashawn McCoy. I like Leshawn McCoy, and I'm also going with mark Ingram. Another caller asked

about mark Ingram. I told you, I think he's an RB one moving forward, and I like him. He's only seventy two hundred on fan duel this week. I think he could get just as much production as some of these other high price running backs. Okay, So when you see on fan duel Levian Bell at nine, Zeke Elliott at nine thousand, Let me save two thousand dollars, and I'm gonna go with Mark Ingram at seventy two hundred my tight end. This week, I'm going to the Los

Angeles Chargers and Hunter Henry. They are up against New England, thirty second ranked defense in the league, thirty second ranked against the past. Hunter Henry has started to grow in his opportunity. I think the Charges are realizing that the time for Antonio Gates is now done and it's the Hunter Henry show. The other thing, Dante high Tower is gonna be out. They just lost The Pats lost him. He's the one in the middle of the field patrolling.

I love me Hunter Henry this week. So I got Dalton Ingram, McCoy, Calvin Benjamin, Pierre Garson, A J. Green, Hunter Henry, and my defense is the New Orleans Saints. They have been much improved. They are at home against the Bears and Mitchell Trabiskie, who is like throwing seven times a game. They can't move the ball. Remember Chicago only scored defensive touchdowns last week. The Saints defense at home, they have been opportunistic. They even got in the end

zone a couple of times. Give me the New Orleans Saints defense at fort hundred. Okay, I like this lineup. You got a little bit of money, you throw in a kicker. I don't care who you're throwing a kicker. Just do me a favor. If you like my lineup, don't put it in a contest against me, because I'm trying to win all the cash. All right. When we come back, we're gonna go to the YouTube questions and I'm gonna tell you, as you know, where you can go. If you're just dipping your toe in the DFS worter,

I got you holding you down. It's the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Come on back, Fantasy Freestyle, my guys. Stefan can you digs it? He practiced again. Fully, Here's the way I would play it, and I have Stefon Diggs and my main season long league as well. If you are favored to win, go ahead and put someone else in that spot. For example, I'm putting Mohammed Sanu in instead of Stefan Diggs because I want to play it safe. I don't want to take like to

defecate the Mattress score. I don't want to take a zero. I don't want him to be a decoy. Week days from seven to eight. D M. E. Stern on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Dane Martinez holding you down on a Halloween Friday. I gave you my DFS lineup over on FanDuel. I want to give

it to you one more time. Andy Dalton at my running backs to mark Ingram at seventy two, shading Ko at eighty four, my wide out, and stacking a J. Green with the red rifle. A J. Green is at eight hundred. Pierre Garson, I like in garbage time against the thirty rank pass defense for sixty hundred, and I like Kelvin Benjamin to get in the end zone for the Carolina Panthers at sixties six. My tight end is

Hunter Henry of the Los Angeles Chargers. I think he eats against this last ranked pass defense of the New England Patriots, especially in the middle of the field without Dante high Tower. And my defense is what I think is an improving New Orleans Saints defense at forty eight hundred against the Chicago Bears who can't really move the ball yet with Mitchell Trobiski. Okay, but here's the thing. When you take this, take this line up, if you want,

go on over toww dot Fantasy Factor dot com. Okay, I love Fantasy Factor, especially if you're kind of new to DFS, right, if you're dipping your toe in the water. What they do is listen on some of these big sites you're putting in like this lineup, you're going up against guys that have fifty lineups in there with their algorithms and whatnot. Go to Fantasy Factor, right because it's single entrry contest, smaller pool like flatter prize pools, smaller

contests you really have a chance to actually win. And they're also doing a free fifty dollar free roll every week in the NFL, and they're doing some NBA contests as well. Okay, so I like me at www. Fantasy Factor dot com. And as you know, also don't forget to go on over to d k ms either, because you've got a free entry into a DFS contest with Daily Roado dot com or Rhodo Experts dot com. Slash

d k MS. If you don't know, then you're clearly not part of the Fantasy Freestyle Cipher because we've been talking about it all season long. What you can do there because you can enter for free. If you win, you go to the finals. You in the finals, we hear at the Fantasy Sports Network and at d k MS, we're giving you two tickets to Super Bowl fifty two. But you also learn a lot about how you can help the fight against blood cancer. You could register to

be a bone marrow donor or a blood donor. All right, checking out there, We're gonna go to the YouTube tritam. I got my and Danny oh there in the Fantasy Sports Dungeon. What what are the people saying on YouTube? Danny, you got any questions for me? What's up? Dan? Yeah? I got a couple of questions. Hi, fire away? All right? So j keys oh eight asks uh Pe Richardson or Locket? The Seattle guys. Richardson or Locket. I think Lockett is the guy who gets more targets and the more consistent.

I think Richardson is the boom or bus play. So if you want to be conservative, if your favorite to win, then it's lock it. If you need the boom, if you need the home run swing, then I think it's Paul richardson Danny. We got one more. Yeah, we have one more from Victor all right, So he's in a standard league. He can take two out of the three of these guys, Latin Murray, Forte or Jalen Rohod. I love Jalen Richard this week in place of Beast Mode, who is suspended, and um, I'm down on Forte. I

think Blao pal could be back. Give me Lottavius Murray. I think they're winning against the Browns. I think they might park the bus in the second half, and that means run the ball with more Lottavius Murray. So I would go with Latin Murray, and I would go with who was the third one that I said, Yeah Richard and Latin Murray. Hey, let me ask you something, Danny. You know, it's a Halloween weekend and stuff. I know, I feel like Danny, you'd be a guy that gets

into the Halloween spirit. Uh, you got a cost on what you're doing this weekend? Uh you know, I think I'm gonna lean towards a Ghostbusters theme. Yeah, okay, so what do you stay puff, Stay, what are you doing? No? No, I gotta I gotta Ghostbusters jump. That's school and you're gonna have the backpack too, and shooting the whatever it is that they shoot. Yeah, a little proton pack. What about my man, the madame o, Chris Bavona.
