Speaker 1

You're listening to the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. You are now about to witness the strength of fantasy knowledge Fantasy Sports Radio Network. You are now tuned in to the speeds and spitting statistician on Fantasy Freestyle up next on that cipher on the microphone. You know that I'm one of the best yet, Martinez, you know what it is.

It's your point, Dane Martinez, a k A speeds a k A to spitting statistician, And you are listening live to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Big shout. As always, some people listening on I Heart Radio on tune In Radio, watching live on the Fantasy Sports Network live YouTube stream, we got a big time show for you right here on a Thursday. As always, I got my man, the manable Principal, Rona, keeping it so hot that we sweat steam. Later on,

we're gonna open up the phone lines. Okay. The number of call is eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine, And I think I know what the number one topic of conversation will be for everybody trying to holler at speeds this spitting statistician. If you don't know within the last couple of hours we have breaking news the Fifth Circuit Court has decided to rule in the NFL's favor. So what that means is that the injunction has been lifted on Ezekiel Elliott and we revert

back to the six game suspension being in play. Now here's the catch. The Dallas Cowboys have a bye this week weeks week six. They are not expected back on the field until week seven, and I think the timing is curious of why this is happening right now. I personally think this has happening right now so that Zeke can take his time to get his ducks in a row and put out yet another appeal. I am getting people on Twitter inundating me right now with oh my god,

should I pick up McFadden or Morris? What should I sell Zeke Elliot for? Let me tell you something like my name was Aaron Rodgers. My response is gonna be R E L A X. Relax, calm down. Okay. A lot of things can still happen before the Cowboys get back on the field in week seven. One of them is that Ezekiel Elliott could file another appeal at another court, this time here in New York. I personally think that

is what's going to happen. And I personally think Zeke Elliott still will not be missing the games that we're talking about right now. I know that may not be a popular opinion, but I'm telling you I would chill though when we come back. So here's what we're gonna do. We are going to talk about how you play this.

If you're a z Elliot owner, We're gonna talk about how you play this, if you're a d m C owner, if you're an Alfred Morris owner, and if you need to have some fab budget spent, which one would you spend it on. I'm inna holler at everybody here in the cipher when we get back on the Fantasy Freestyle. Also, we got a Thursday night football game on right now, so we gotta pull question up. What do you think

is the winning parlay? You like the Panthers with the three point home favorite or you like the over under at forty five? We gotta pull question up on Twitter. You know what it is that your boy at spitting speeds. We're gonna find out what you like for Thursday night football. We're gonna take your calls we've got some spotlight games. And if you're watching on the live YouTube stream, you see we got some new duds overre I got great lumbar support. Right here in this new chair, I feel

like I'm in the cockpit. We got new chairs, but we got the same fish. We're still taking Junior. We're dropping stats over beats. Is the Fantasy Freestyle with your boy Speeds. Come a. I'm Melissa and I'm Jill, and where the interns. The Fantasy Sports Radio Network and d k MS wants to send you to Minnesota this February. All you have to do is play our Big Games Contribute Challenge sponsored by d k MS starting next week. Answer four questions right, and you're heading to the Big Game.

Tune in to find out when the contest will be running. So what are you waiting for? Play the Big Game Tribute Challenge sponsored by d KMS, only on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. What's my mother loving name? Yeah, you know what it is. It's Speeds, It's Fitten Satisficition, and we are back dropping stats over beats. Is the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I told you already, I'm not convinced that Zeke misses any

games yet. I know the ruling just came down, But if you are a Zeke owner, don't panic, don't go crazy, do not sell him for pennies on the dollar. I'm also telling you right now, if you happen to have Darren McFadden, if you happen to have alf Morris, I'm gonna tell you honestly, you need to shop them right now. In fantasy football, what you're supposed to do is buy low and sell high. Okay, the price will never be

higher for Darren McFadden and Alfred Morris. Then right now, with this news, we might hear tomorrow that Zeke Elliott is appealing the suspension, and until that one gets hurt, he's gonna be on the field. You have have a window right right now where people are panicking and people think that these guys are gonna be actually valuable. I don't know that they are. And here's the other point. Okay, the window of their production, it is what it is.

But here's the thing. The Cowboys offensive line is not what it was in years past. Zeke Elliott is an elite talent. Okay, he's gonna do work I'm not sure Darren McFadden or Alfred Morris can. Alfred Morris is three yards and a cloud of dust. That's all he's doing. He's not making people miss he's not getting more than plays are blocked for, and I don't know that they're getting blocked as well as they have been in years past down there in Dallas. Okay, so officially I'm telling you,

don't panic. I understand I'm getting too many questions on Twitter about this. Don't panic. Okay, there's still more chapters to be written in this story. I will say this, if you're a kind of leage where you gotta spend some fat budget and you have opportunity for both of these guys, McFadden or Morris, I personally like McFadden a little bit better. I think, like I said, Alfred Morris

is three yards in a cloud of dust. I think you know McFadden, even at his injury risk, and even though he's no spring chicken, I think he has more shiftiness, more loosive, this more spark than Alfred Morris. So if I had to pick between one or the other, I picked Darren McFadden. I think he's the better skilled talent and I also think they were trying to keep him maybe wrapped in bubble wrapped for the entire season just in case this happens. But I'm not sure that it

officially is happening just yet. And to keep it moving though here on the fantasy freestyle, one thing that is happening is Tyler Iford is having back surgery. He will miss the rest of this season. He's turning out to be more of like a Mr. Glass tight end than

even Jordan's Red. I think this means Tyler Croft is viable at a bat as a back end tight end one or in the streaming conversation week to week, when the Cincinnati Bengals get back into action, Big Ben over there in Pittsburgh is saying, we could give Martevis Brian a break this week. He's not really being bench And this is from the quarterback, not a coach, right, but listen, Eli Rodgers is back, it could be time to fade Martevis Brian. It looks like Big Ben likes himself a

little bit of Juju Smith Schuster. Remember about the tweet war back and forth between Eli Rodgers and Martevis Bryant when they drafted Juju Smith Schuster. It looks like Martevis Bryant maybe the one um you know, losing out in the sandbox. I'm off Martevis Bryant. I need to see him have one of these big plays before I'm back on him. Head coach Bruce Arian says that Adrian Peterson won't play on third downs. That means to me, Andre

Ellington's role is still safe. Andre Ellencot's with nine catches in his last two weeks. I do not run away from Andre Ellingtonton, especially in PPR leagues. I don't think Adrian Petersonson is gonna move the needle much. I think they're gonna try him. I think he's gonna get a lot lot of carries this week against Tampa Bay, but I don't think it's gonna pan out that well. And I think he's gonna be relegated to the same kind

of duty that he has been in the past. Uh d r C the cornerback in New York, he's suspended in definitely by the Giants. I think that, listen. I think it's unraveling in New York. I think remember Eli Apple has not looked as good as he did in his rookie year. You got Jack Rabbin and that's about about it. In the backfield there. I like Manny Sanders big time this week for Denver. The only problem there is if they get up big, might they just be

running the ball in the second half. In the last note that I'll give before we get into the practice reports, the California wildfires are threatening this Chargers Raiders game. You have members of the Oakland Raiders practicing today in gas mask because of the air quality that they're seeing there right near the wildfires in California. Let me tell you something, Mother Nature is undefeated. Whether it's these earthquakes, whether it's

these hurricanes or now these wildfires. It is truly impacting everyone far and wide. Keep an eye on this. They may decide to move this game. Um, if it doesn't get better. Let me tell you about these practice reports. These guys not practicing against Sterling Shepherd, balal pal rob Kelly with various leg injuries, ankles and calves. I don't think these guys are gonna play, okay, so that means potentially some a G. P Ryan while balal Pale is

I don't think gonna play. I do think Matt Forte will so that tampers the love on a guy like Elijah McGuire. My man, Emory Hunt is big time on Elijah McGuire. But if Matt Forte plays, Matt Forte is going to get snaps. All right. These guys are limited, We're limited in practice and are truly questionable. Okay, we're talking about Derek Carr. We're talking about Marcus Mariota as well. I think it's trending that both of these quarterbacks will

in fact play. But listen, Sam Bradford played on Monday night and he couldn't finish. You know, Derek Cars dealing with a back, Marcus Mariota and a hamstring. If he's gonna try and you know, get out of the pocket. He's a big part of that exotic, smash mouth running game. So we'll see if they rush it back. I'll tell you one guy who will know. That's our guy, Dr

A from Inside Injuries. When I'm here on Sunday morning and lineup block Live nine am Eastern all the way to kick off, we're gonna be interviewing Doctor A and the ten o'clock Eastern hour, We're gonna tell you what he thinks about this hamstring for a running quarterback like Marcus Mariota, and what is really Derek Carr risking by coming back? Tom Brady is gonna play this week. He's been removed for the injury report Chargers rookie wide out

Mike Williams. It also looks like he's trending to make his season debut coming back from a back injury from the Los Angeles Chargers. All right, here's what I want to do. I want to give you my preview of the Thursday night game that's coming up in about an hour or so. We're talking Eagles and Panthers. I want to give you my review of that game, and then later on in the show, what we're gonna do is we're gonna open up the phone lines at eight four

four eight four three six, eight seven nine. We're gonna try and address your questions about week six and beyond, trade questions, free agent pickups, and also how to handle this if you have a guy like Zeke Elliott, if you have a guy like um Darren McFadden on your bench, if you feel you know what, how should you respond? Should you write him out there in week seven? Or should you look to try to flip him now when he may have the highest value that he is going

to have all year. Let me tell you about this Thursday night football game. First of all, I refer back two before the season. Before the season, if you were listening to the fantasy freestyle, I did my team by team preview and I told you the overrunders for the wind totals, and then I gave out my division winners. And I was catching all sorts of slack because I said, I believe that the Philadelphia Eagles are going to win

the NFC East. I caught a lot of slack because I said, I believe the Carolina Panthers are going to win the NFC South over the defending NFC champion Falcons. Both of these teams stand at four and one the winner of this game. Imagine if the Eagles win, go into Carolina and win to go to five and one, with the Giants unraveling, with the storm of Zeke Elliott hovering above the Cowboys, with the Washington football team looking average, this could be the Eagles grabbing a stranglehold an inside

pole position on the NFC East. And think about the Panthers side of things. Think about what Cam Newton has had to already go through. Okay, from me included, I

think his maturity level is subpar right now. But if with all this, the loss of Greg Olsen, the injuries to Cam, the evolution of the offense, and if they still come away at five and one and with a head to head win against the team like the Eagles that they could be competing against for a home game in the playoffs, I think this is a very big game in the NFC and it's coming out right now. Here's what I'm talking about this game. I love, love,

love the Carolina Whiteouts in this game. There are some Philadelphia cornerbacks that are getting at He tried to address this trading for Ronald Darby in the preseason, and then Darby went out right away with an ankle injury. He's not back yet. I think Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funcius are going to eat today against these Philly cornerbacks. Okay, I really like that. On the Philly side, you gotta love zach Ertz. Okay, I believe zach Ertz is definitely

a top three tight end moving forward. But Rob Gronkowski and Travis Kelsey have injury concerns. Remember Kelsey is in the protocol in the cold dark quiet room because of his CT symptoms and that concussion that was very scary last week. And Yo, Rob Gronkowski, will he or won't he play? He's got back, he's got fives. You know, he's got a lot of things that are banged up. I love me some zach Ertz. I love the development

of Carson Wentz. But one thing if you listen to the Fantasy freestyle you know about is that I believe Carson Wentz is very much tied to All Pro right tackle Lane Johnson. Last year, when Lane Johnson was there, Carson Wentz looked great. Then Lane Johnson had a ten game suspension, and that's right when Carson Wentz his play

started to plummet in his rookie year. You're also not gonna have Wendell Smallwood, who was taking that Darren Sprows roll after he got hurt, effectively Smallwood missing his second game with the knee injury. You also don't have a big stud in the middle for Philadelphia. Fletcher Cox looks like he might miss this game as well. He's gonna give it a go in warmups, but it's trending that he won't play either. Because of all those things and

because I like the home team. Generally speaking, on Thursday Night Football, I think we see a decent quality game, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is the Carolina Panthers going to five and one right now. It is real tight you in total, say take the Panthers minus three cent, Say take the Eagles and the points, and if we look at the over under, fifty seven percent of you like the over. When we come back, we're gonna open up the phone lines eight four four eight

four three six seven none. We're gonna talk about how to handle this Z situation and why the fantasy Freestyle cipher is stronger than ever. Come on, back Hunter, Henry Sterling, Shepherd, Michael Thomas. These three NFL softmores are not due to slump. They're due to break out. Just like the Fantasy Sports Radio Network in year two, things are only getting better. Make sure listen live and dell o the app f and t s Y Radio. It's free and it's twenty

If you're downloading the podcast, subscribe, write a life of a five star review, follow your boy on Twitter at spin and Speed's I told you that the cipher is strong. Let me tell you something.

I talk all the time to my friends, to my family about how overjoyed I am that I get to help out you guys at eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine. I got people hitting me up on Twitter from Australia, from Europe, from New Zealand and listen. Sometimes people contribute nicknames to the show, like Joe Mix on mix Off. We had Adam I'm feeling myself. We also had you know, we had a guy that's gonna be sending us beats to use Bavon or whatever

happened with that. We still got some of those beats from one of the listeners that we can use in the right format. Something like that. Chris, we just gotta get a new format. I'm gonna email him tonight. All right, it sounds good. Everyone can contribute answering the polls calling in. Remember I had that time about who had the bad beats and people are sending in pictures on that last play the Kansas City game. But this is absolutely the craziest.

If you listen to the Fantasy Freestyle, if you follow the crew on Twitter, you know that the sipher here in Fantasy Freestyle is strong. Check this out earlier in the week. Earlier in the week, we had a poll like the Waiver Wire, who should play, who should be running? Who should you spend your budget on? That sort of thing.

Simon on Twitter, one of the follow us here on the show, said that what you should do is pick up Akim Hunt running back on the Kansas City Chiefs and then front to the people in your league like Hunt was really Kareem Hunt and see if you can get anything back. It's one of those like can hurt to try? Right? And I was like, sure, if that evil would work, sure or give it a shot? Right. I found out last night I got hit up on Twitter.

Guy Marcus Torres. He made it happen. He picked up a chim Hunt and traded him straight up for Leonard Fournett in his league. And then he hit me up on Twitter. I was like, I don't believe you. That's crazy, that sound. I don't believe that that's actually gonna happen. He sent me a picture of his computer screen saying that the trade was being processed, that it was expected. Now I ask you, fantasy freestyle cipher fairer foul? Is

that cool or not? I'm I put it up on Twitter and everyone is saying like, yeah, it's all good. It's pretty much all good, and then put the blame on the Fornet owner for accepting that kind of trade. And I think, I I think, while it's like ingenious and creative and great, it's a little questionable. But I gotta tell you, this world of fantasy football is roof list, and so I am with it. I had to let you guys know that I love when y'all hit me up with all that stuff. We're trying to build the

community here to citeher on Fantasy Free Thought. We drop our stats over beats and we help you win your leagues and win that cash. So, without further ado, we're gonna open up the phone lines right now. See how I can help you out for week six. I know there's gonna gonna be a lot of ZKE owners out there as well. The number of call is eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine. We're gonna kick it off today with Francisco in California. Francisco, you

are in Cali. You're dropping stats over beats with the spitting statistician. What's good with you? Boy? What how you doing doing? Alright? So I got two questions for you. Um, I want to get your thoughts on this trade I made, and uh, I want to know who to startle from, Benjamin or Adam Feeling. I love both of those guys, Francisco, I love both of those guys tonight. I think Benjamin has a big game against that Philadelphia secondary that has not been great. And I love Adam Feeling this week,

especially if Stefan can you digs? It can't go with that groin injury. You say, KB and Feeling? Who are these other wide receivers? Because I would actually try to find a way to start both of them. So, Francisco, before you get to your trade, who else are your other wide receivers that are over both Benjamin and Feeling? Well, well, yeah, that's ties into the trade to Okay, I gotta Antonio Brown in the trade. Oh that's great. So what's the trade.

Let's talk about this. What's the trade? I gave up Sean McCoy and Brandon Cooks and you got back. I love it, Alex Smith, Oh I love it. I absolutely love it. I think and people are talking about Alex Smith is an m VP candidate. Antonio Brown is obviously a stud. The reason I love it is because both Cooks and McCoy have yet to really perform. Cooks has kind of been, you know, off again, on again with New England, and I am very down on Shady McCoy.

If you listen to the Fantasy Freestyle, you know that Buffalo offense has no kind of force and power behind it. Losing Jordan Matthews, losing Charles Clay. Let me ask you this, Francisco, if you were a defensive coordinator playing against the Buffalo Bills. Wouldn't you spend all your energy trying to stop Lashawn McCoy. I think that's what's gonna happen. So I absolutely love the trade. I love any trade where you can get Antonio Brown. Thanks for the call, Francisco. We're keeping it

moving in here on the Fantasy Freestyle. Next up is Steve in Massachusetts. Hey, Steve, you're in Massachusetts. If you feel bad for the Red Sox, feel bad for their change at the with Farrell Ghana, looks like Pedro is gonna have surgery. I don't know, but my Yankees are still playing. How you feel out there, Stephen Massachusetts? How can I help you? On the Fantasy Freestyle? I'm doing all right, Yeah, not too good, I see, moving on? But what can you do? Right? What can you do?

You guys? You know you guys came back from oh three, So the least the Yankees can do is come back and from two games to nothing. How can I help you with fantasy football? In Week six? Steve, I actually had a question. I'm trying to figure out who I wanted to start. It's me, Trevor, Simeon and Brissette because I have Russell Wilson on the bond and I like both matchups, and I'm just not sure where I should go,

Simeon or Brissette. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. I know it's gonna sound crazy, but I actually like Brissette better this week. Okay, I like Brissette over Simeon this week, and let me tell you why. Okay. My main reason is because I think Denver is gonna be able to win this game without having to throw the ball much at all. I think this Giant's offense is such blunt, gut trash with no running game to speak of, no healthy wide receivers. I don't think they're gonna put up

many points on Sunday Night. I think Denver is not gonna have to do much to win this game, and I think they're gonna be up in the second half. If you saw a saying like that Jacksonville Pittsburgh game, the Jaguars didn't throw a single pass since in the second half, I think this is gonna be a lot of C J. Anderson, not too touch of Trevor Simeon.

On the flip side, I think Jacoby Brissette and the Colts are gonna be in a more competitive game with the Titans on Monday night, and I think that Tennessee past defense could be had. So for those reasons, I am going Steve. I actually like Brissette over Simeon, especially with you know, t Y Hilton and the explosions he's had over the past couple of days. But thanks for the call, Steve. Anytime here on the Fantasy Freestyle. Hey Jeff, Jeff and Canada, you're up next dropping status over beats

on the Fantasy Freestyle. Jeff, how can I help you out for week six? Going? And uh, you know, trying to get a w Yeah. Well, I talked to you yesterday about my crappy running backs with Abdula as my best and I had Brown Thomas and uh and uh nuke you said to try and pear up Dronkowski running back. This guy wants Michael Thomas and Jonathan Stewart for McCoy. Wait wait, say this again, say this again? You would be getting McCoy. Yeah, for Michael Thomas and Jonathan Stewart.

I don't do it, man, I don't do that you. I don't know if you heard me on the last call. I'm down on McCoy. McCoy is there's there's nothing left on that Buffalo offense. That Buffalo offense is not really dynamic and buff and McCoy will be the only guy left there for defense is to stop I know, I I really don't think McCoy. I think it's gonna be tough sledding for him. I liken Lashawn McCoy for the rest of this year to what Todd Gurley was facing last year. He might have been a great talent, but

defenses were keying in so hard to stop him. That's why I coined the like fifty three in a box. I think that's what Lashawn McCoy is going to be facing. Remember, Jeff, I do still think that the way for you to improve is to maybe drop down a little bit and go to for two and involved maybe a little bit of gronk. But no, McCoy is not a running back. I would be targeting right now. Okay, McCoy is not a running back. I would be targeting because I think

there's nothing left in Buffalo. I think, listen, I think C. J. Anderson is a better look. I think Doug Martin is a is a better look. Melvin Gordon is a better look obviously, the elite studs like Hunt Bell for Nette, you know, but I I don't think McCoy. I think he's gonna be more of a back in DRB one, maybe even an RB two going forward. I want a young kid. I want a guy like Doug Martin who hasn't played much. I think I think those guys might be a little better. McCoy is not the running back

I would be targeting in a trade. Although I do empathize for your situation, Jeff, let's keep it moving here on the Fantasy Freestyle. Our next call is Andrew. Andrew is in Boston. Hey, we got a lot of New England. There's eating the chowder over there. Hey Andrew, you're dropping stats over beets with speeds. How could I help you get a dub? Alright? Hey, good evening. Um, so I want to get your opinion on tonight's game. You got you seem to be hid a lot of guys, but

you didn't mention mccannaffrey at all. Right now, now I got him on my bench and I'm starting Howard and Camara over him. Is that a mistake? Him? In? Is this PPR? Andrew? Pr? Yeah? Sorry? Yeah, no problem, no problem. Listen if it's p PR, the appeal of CMC is definitely there. Okay, Yes, I like Chatritian McCaffrey. I think he's another guy. What I did, if you heard me early in the show, I talked about the evolution of this offense and how what I think that means for

Benjamin and Funcious. I think I think CMC is also uh stands to really benefit as the season goes along. I think they're gonna find ways to get him mismatches is I love Alvin Kamara this week, especially in PPR formats, I think Jordan Howard is the one. I mean, he gets the guaranteed touches. But because you're in PPR formats, I think Camara is gonna get some receptions and I think McCaffrey is gonna get some respect receptions. Yeah, Andrew, I find a way to try and get McCaffrey in

your lineup. Thanks for the call. But regardless of what you're doing here, if you're playing DFS or if you're playing season long, you can always go on over to Daily Roado dot com. You can go on over to Rhodo Experts dot com. Slash d K MS. We're doing a great promotion here. We're partnering up with d KMS to help fight blood cancer. What we're doing is are doing free to enter your DFS contest every week of

But even if you don't win, you can still be a hero here. You learn a little bit

more about the disease. You could register to maybe be a blood donor, maybe be a bone marrow donor, and you could be a match for someone struggling with the disease and really help save a life, even if you don't win in the DFS contest. Okay, when we come back though here on Fantasy Freestyle, we got a lot of calls still left to get to. I see you Dan in New Jersey, Rob out there in the bay.

with Dan in New Jersey. Dan in New Jersey, you're dropping stats over beats on the Fantasy Free Style. How can we help you get a W in week six? Man? How's it going, Dan? We're doing all right? Before I get to my question, what about our boys last night? Yeah? Yeah, That's what I'm talking about CC turning back the clock. The Brett Gardner at bat was huge. The Brett Gardner at bat was huge. I like what they're doing. Uh, Tanaka is gonna start Game one on Friday. Yankees are

still live in it. Let's go Yankees and let me tell you something else real quick and then I'll get to your call. Dan. Yes, indeed, Deeed Gregorious. Man, let me tell you something about this kid. When he came over in the three way trade. He was supposed to be all glove right. Twenty five home runs this year, more than any season of Derek Jeter, more than any season of any shortstop in Yankees history. I do believe

this kid. I love where they're going. This is also a team that I feel like I can root for. But enough about that, let's get into Week six, Dan, how can I help you? Definitely a great, definitely great. But anyways, so my question is it's a mixture of a start set pick up question. Running back wide receiver is H ten team standard. My wide receivers and running backs are des Tarikon Cook's prior Cop Bell, No, you

gotta go slower, you gotta go slower, you gotta go slow. Yeah, so it's des uh Ark Cooks prior prior Cob, and then my running backs are yeah, Cop, and then um my running backs are Bell Ti Month. I picked up Alfred Morris not knowing what the situation was. I thought out of whim uh mixing mixing and Buck Allen and so we obviously know the ties situations up in the air.

I picked up Buck a few days ago and it dropped and when I got him whatever, I dropped Richard Matthews because I didn't know what the situation was with Mariota. So as you can see my wide receiver situations and kind of crazy wherever some good, some kind of chancing would have you. So, yeah, like I said, I picked up Alfred Morrison, what have you? So I'm not quite sure who to play this week. What I was gonna

go with was Buck Bell, Tari Cook and prior. However, I don't know if I just still maybe go back to the well and pick up Orchard again and then drop and saying gillesly too, I had him on my kem dropped him befoul. You go back to the well and maybe pick up Um Richard and Gillislee or screw it for both? No more? All right, here we go, Here we go, Dan, And thanks for cool, thanks for the love on the Yankees, I will say this, you threw a lot of stuff at me. Man man, Okay,

So here's what I'm gonna try and tell you. First of all, Joe Mixon's on a by this this week, okay, so we ain't gotta worry about him. Alfred Morris and the Cowboys they're on a bye this week, also, okay, Um Levan Bell. Obviously I like Buck Allen as your two, but if if time on Gunnery plays, you gotta go with him. And they're saying that he felt fine after receiving contact practice, So I think Bell and Tie are fine. Here's what I'm gonna tell you. I'm off Tarik Cohen.

I am officially off Turek Cohen. He's just not getting the opportunity and the snaps anymore. Jordan Howard is really taking on a bigger role there. I'm off Trek Cohen. Um. I think you go Dez, I think you go Cook, And honestly I think Um. I'm off Terrell Prior. I like Cup. I like Cooper Cup over Terrell Prior. But the name you mentioned was with Richard Matthews. I also like Richard Matthews as a potential flex play in that group. So it's kinda recap. If healthy, it's Bell, Tie and

then Buck Allen. If Tie is not healthy, you put Buck Allen in there. I like Des, I like Cooks, and then I kind of like Cooper Cup over TP three Um in that game Washington and San Francisco. But I do think Richard Matthews is a viable flex play as well. But I would go Dez, I would go Cooks, and then I would go Cooper Cup. I hope that gives you the information you need. Dan and let's go Yankees. All right. Now we go to Rob rob is in Bay Area. Rob, you're dropping status over beats on the

Fantasy Freestyle. And I gotta know, Rob, are you rocking a gas mask these days? What's going on there in the skies in the Bay Area? Is it? What's going on with these wildfires? Man? Hey man, you gotta say, I love the show. Let's do it every day in traffic. Um, but this this the weather out here is crazy. You do see people really uh, their air qualities just really poor. Um. They shut down the schools. Uh, you just hurt about my my house, So they shut down the schools. Yeah,

they said that was cool. My wife's college got it. Caught in college right now? Shut out the school. Wow, that's crazy, Rob, Yo, Thank you so much. First of all, thanks for the love saying you love the show and you're stuck in traffic. May maybe out there on the four oh five or something, But this is really interesting. Do you think when you're seeing it firsthand, do you

think there's a chance they move that game? Because listen, you don't want to gather, you know, fifty fifty seventy thousand people in an open air stadium when they's like you know, in relationship potential here and you know a problem. Do you think that they're gonna move this game on Sunday? Rob, No, I don't think so. It's it's kind of progressively better. Like I I could actually see the guy today you have today because it's seeing anything, there's a red sun.

It was just bad um And I mean we're we're pretty far from the actually admires uh Therapulds the closest hiles from that. So I don't think it's impact that much. All right, Thanks for that. Thanks for that report. Rob. You're officially the weather corresponding for the Fantasy Free Style. How can we help you out there? Get a W for week six? Rob? Well, I'm on a three win street right now, so I do a credit bad to you?

Uh you and on the morning shows, Uh, I have a stark stand Quash and guy how Ste Bonds, who I'm kind of worried about. But I also I'm starting uh Michael Crabtree and uh will Fullard that I have t Y Hilton any more? Absolutely absolutely, and thanks for the call. I think the breakout from t Y Hilton is coming and it is coming quickly. If you have him on your roster. Rob, you know that t Y Hilton over the last couple of days has been great. I think Crabtree is a no brainer for you. I

think t Y is a no brainer for you. What I do then is listen, if Diggs is healthy, then you definitely put in Stefan can you digs it? But the word I got today from our guy dr a over at Inside Injuries is that this could be a two kind of weak injury. Okay, so if he's out there, he might be a decoy. And I'm upset because I have Stefon Diggs too. I think it's Crabtree. I think it's t Y Hilton. And then I think what you

do is you you go with Stefon Diggs. But if he can't really go, if you get bad reports you know tomorrow, then you go and put will will Fuller in for digs. But yes, Rob, I do think t Y Hilton needs to be in your line up against that Tennessee Titans past defense on Monday night. Thanks for the call. Let's keep it moving here. We got Mike and Den Moine. Mike, you're on the Fantasy freestyle dropping stats over beats. How can I get you a w in week six, accidentally listen to the neighbors next to

little Dog, Mike is not with us. Man. Mike was holding and he forgot that he was about to be dropping stats over beats on the fantasy freestyle. Next time, Mike, when you're ready, let's go. We gotta get it. That's what we do. We dropped stats over beats right now? All right? Um oh, quickly he wanted Cam or Brady. No, you gotta go Tom Brady. You gotta go to Tom Brady. I know Cam has been better and better, but you gotta go Tom Brady. Okay, let's keep it moving. We

got Eric in West Virginia. Eric, you were dropping stats over beats on the Fantasy freestyle. I hope you're ready to go. Eric. What's good for you? Man? That much? Man? Um? I just got a quick question. Um, I got a quarterback question. Who do I start? Cam Newton, Matt Ryan or Alex Smith. I like Matt Ryan this week. I like Matt Ryan this week, my man, I'll like Matt Ryan this week. He's off the by so I think you know, they scheme some new things with Steve Sarkaesian

and they're going up against Miami. I think that's a good matchup. I think the Atlanta Falcons eviscerate the Miami Dolphins this week. Eric. I like Matt Ryan. I like him better than the other two options. All right, hopefully that gets you a W in weeks. Let's go back to Cali. We're going to Brendon in California. Hey, Brendan, how could I help you out for week six year

on the Fantasy Freestyle? What's up, hey Dane. I got a couple of questions, and here I should start or sit in my QB running back and wider serious slot. All right, let's go one at a time. Okay, let's go one at a time, and let's start with the running backs. Okay, let's start running backs, my man. Okay, so I got Duke Johnson, Doug Martin, and McKinnon. I got Zeke by right, Zeke is on the by first of all, don't panic about Zeke, alright. I like I like Duke and I like McKinnon. I like them both

as past catching options. I think is it PPR? Is it PPR? It's half PPR? Yeah, Brendon, I um, I like I like Duke and I like McKinnon. In that half PPR. Who was the third again? I like those options. I think who was the third? Doug Doug Martin. I like Doug Martin too. Damn, that's a good problem to have, Brendan, that's a good problem to have. You know what, McKinnon is gonna get you targets. So is Duke Johnson. He's

gonna get you targets. I like Doug Martin, but I want to see one more week of Doug Martin before I run him out there on a week to week basis. And I believe that that matchup against Arizona is a tough matchup for a running back coming right back. So while I like Martin, I think you're gonna get guaranteed targets with both Duke and McKinnon. Duke is almost kind of like surpassing the crow. Well, so that's where I go real quick. Let's go to quarterbacks real quick. Alex

Smith or Cam Newton. Alex Smith or Cam Newton. I like Cam tonight. I like Cam tonight against Philadelphia, the Philadelphia secondary and be attacked. And I think that he's starting to find something to guinea Cam at home to keep his uh, you know, keep his evolution. And improvement going and last, talk to me about your wide receivers real quick. But give me the white outs because we're up against the commercial break, So give me a white outs and I may have to answer you right after

the break. Who are the white outs? Man? Okay, I can start four and I have five. Got Tylery Hill, Davante Adams, Chris Hogan, Amien Dola and Julio Jones'ndola, Hogan and Julio. All right, here's what we're gonna do. Uh, we gotta take a quick break here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We're dropping stats over beats. We gotta pay the bills as well, Brandon. So here's what we're gonna do. We're

gonna take a quick break. When we come back. I'm gonna spend all commercial break, I promise, going through these wide outs and I'm gonna give you how I would rank them when we return, and then we're gonna check in on the polls. We tie a nice neat little bow on this episode of the Fantasy Briefly Style, dropping stats over beats. When we come back. Thanks all the calls, Thanks for all the love, and thanks even for the guy who wounds up trading a cheme hunt and getting

Leonard for Nette. Whoever told you that this show wasn't gonna help you win your leagues and win that cash. We'll be right back with the answer to Brandon's question after this pre style. I'm not convinced that Zeke misses any games yet. I know the ruling just came down, But if you are a Zeke owner, don't panic, don't go crazy, do not sell him for pennies on the dollar. I'm also telling you right now, if you happen to have Darren McFadden Alph Morris, you need to shop them

right now. The price will never be higher for Darren McFadden and Alfred Morris then right now with this news week days from seven to eight p m. E. Stern on the Phantasy Sports Radio Network. But I won't stop now. You can hate me now, but I won't stop now. You know what it is we're dropping stats over beats is the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. If you like what you're seeing on that YouTube stream, get that like button right there. Okay, We're

gonna make it happen. Listen. I had Brendan out there in Cali, he asked the question before we went to break. He gave me five whiteouts. I think Julio is a no brainer if he is healthy and plays. I feel the same way about a Davante Adams. I love Tyreek Hill this week, especially if Travis Kelsey doesn't go because he is in the concussion protocol. Remember that. I think that means more opportunity for Tyreek Hill. So it comes

down to the two Patriots, Hogan and a Mendola. I put Hogan in my lineup, and I think Danny A Mendola, even though his mom makes the best meat balls, I think Danny A Mendola is the guy without a chair when the music stops. I hope that helps you outbout Brendan. We gotta pull a question up though on Twitter at Spitting Speeds is where to go if you want to get more action from Beds all the time, you could

ask me questions. I try to help you out. A lot of people were giving me love for actually responding to the fans, whether it be here on eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine, whether it be at Spitting Speeds, whether it be on the YouTube live stream. We're gonna try and answer your calls. The question was do you like Panthers minus three tonight? And do you like the over or the under? Okay, right now, thirty two percent of you like the Panthers and the over.

Nineteen say Panthers and under Eagles and over three say Eagles and under. I think it's gonna be a close game. I'll tell you what, if you're a gambling interest in this one, I say pass. I say pass on this game. I think this is gonna be a tight game Thursday Night football. You never know what is going to happen When we come back tomorrow on the Fantasy Freestyle. It is gonna be a big time football Friday. We'll break down this game that's about to kick off in about

a half an hour. We'll tell you who is the number one seed in the NFCC. Remember I picked both of these teams to surprisingly win their division before the season start. One of them is going to have a stranglehole going forward. I'm gonna give you my DFS lineup for Week six tomorrow on the Fantasy Freestyle. And as you also know, we're gonna be doing our home dogs on a Friday. There's some not only some home dogs to discuss tomorrow. There's also a couple of double digit

favorites this week. I think the Washington team is over a double digit favorite Atlanta Denver, maybe the New England Patriots against the Jets in New York as well. I'll give you my take on those home dogs my DFS lives, and of course we'll be answering your questions as well. Just to recap, Okay, I talked about the Zeke Elliott thing. I don't think we're done with this just yet. Okay. Remember it's kind of like how they always say, oh, it's healthcare dead, and then the weeks later, you here

there's another bill being sponsored by like the Republican Congress. Right. I don't think this is dead just yet. I think this is gonna be going on for a while. I think you're gonna see Zeke Elliott and his team appeal this decision before the Cowboys next game. Remember the Cowboys

have a bye this week. And also, big shout out to the Fantasy Freestyle Cipher from everybody, from Rob serving as my weather correspondent today to the people hitting me up on Twitter, to people you know suggesting things like trading Akim Hunt, to the people sending me beats to the people giving me love from as far away as

Yo' I'm available, Yo, holl at your boy. I want to get down and be a guest or something like that. We also got the a the n l Ds coming to a conclusion and Nationals and Cubs tonight. I like the way the Nationals are set up for sure.

Uh serzure tonight. Remember before the season, I said it would be a Nationals Astro's World Series. Now on the al side, you the Astros get there or my New York Yankees get to the World Series. So I'm gonna win win situation. Coupling back tomorrow, guys, eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine. I got these new fancy chairs, I got my lumbar support. We still got my man, Ted fitz Jr. And I don't want to be a player no more. I just crushed a lot.
