Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. Week 10 Roster Decisions: Start/Sit/Tough Calls

• Listener Start/Sit Dilemmas: The crew responds rapid-fire to YouTube and email questions—often disagreements or consensus, but always with process explained.

  • Alec Pierce vs Darius Slayton:
    • Jamie: “Slayton's matchup is much better... If he’d caught those touchdowns, we’d see him differently.” (06:17)
    • Dan: “I like Pierce… but not this week, it’s not a dome situation for Daniel Jones. He needs a dome.” (07:05)
  • Khalil Shakir or Alec Pierce:
    • Dan provides detailed tape analysis: “Pierce’s role is so defined… deep routes, one-on-ones…” (07:30)
    • Jamie: “He’s yet to score a touchdown this season.” (08:06)
  • Walker, Charbonnet, Aaron Jones or Bears RBs:
    • Jamie: “Both Bears and Aaron Jones,” Dan: “At some point [Walker] has to break a long run.” (22:29)
  • Jalen Warren vs Jordan Addison vs Quentin Johnston:
    • Jamie: “Warren is the safest.” (25:03)

• Trade Evaluations:

  • Example:
    Listener trades Josh Jacobs for Saquon Barkley and Oronde Gadsden.
    • Jamie & Adam: “Yes! Smash that like button.” (04:29)

• Ramondre Stevenson, other key injuries: Adam reads real-time updates, with Jamie and Dan adding quick reactions.
  • Jamie: “No Kayshaun Boutte at practice…” (11:31)

  • Adam: “Packers’ Josh Jacobs has a calf injury but feels great, per LaFleur.” (11:35)

3. Fantasy Cops: League Disputes, Trade Vetoes & Commissioner Conduct

The “Fantasy Cops” segment shines as a deep dive into the ethics, rules, and emotional chaos of running a competitive fantasy league.

• Trade Veto Drama (38:01–41:26):

  • Adam shares a dispute where a 2–7 team trades with a more successful team, causing league outrage—and debates what rules should govern vetoes.
    Quote (Adam): “You need to have a steadfast hard rule here… only veto if a team is eliminated from playoffs or there’s collusion.” (38:33)
  • Dan: “It should never be vetoed… people are vetoing it just because the one team got better.” (40:02)
  • Jamie: “We only veto for collusion or if it breaks the balance of the league… That’s not even close here.” (41:13)

• Waiver Wire Mistake & Reversal (43:35–44:59):

  • Listener loses chance at Musgrave due to a player being restored after an ‘accidental drop’. Panel debates fair solutions:
    • Jamie: “It’s not fair to punish this person, but also hard to undo waivers. If there’s no solution, I think you just got screwed.” (44:21)
    • Dan & Adam agree on complexity, advocate for process transparency.

• Commissioner Meltdown (49:19–51:41):

  • A commissioner changes a lineup after lock, then threatens to fold the league under scrutiny.
    • Dan: “This guy is going through a wild crash out… just turn over commissioner duties.” (50:48)
    • Jamie: “Horrible work by the commissioner. He’s a disgrace.” (51:52)

4. Trade Reviews & Dynasty Strategy

• Mailbag Rapid-Fire Grades:

  • “GenTI and Wondale for HN and Benson—love that trade!” (32:55)
  • "Give up Etienne, Abuka, Waddle, and Myers for Barkley and Adams?"
    Dan: “Unreal trade by you. A+.” (33:19)
    • Jamie is more reserved: “I do think it’s in the favor of the two players, but not a slam dunk.” (33:40)

• Dynasty Trades:

  • “London for Neighbors and Tez Johnson”—Jamie: “A healthy Neighbors is definitely better than Drake London…” (56:27)
  • “Traded Woody Marks for Jameson Williams”—Panel: Thumbs-up, with caveats for context.

5. Lighthearted Banter, Impressions, and Dad Jokes

(Scattered throughout, but most memorable in 13:04–16:34, 34:13–35:05)

• Adam repeatedly tries dad jokes, to Dan’s growing exasperation:

  • Pilgrims Joke
    Adam: “If pilgrims were alive today, what would they be known for? — Their age.” (13:19) Dan: “That’s one of the worst ones… The fence joke was good.” (13:40)
  • Seaweed Joke
    Jamie: “Why is the sand at the beach always wet?”
    Dan: “I don’t know?”
    Jamie: “Because the seaweed.”
    Adam: “The seaweed. Like, peed.” (14:13–14:25)
  • Science Dad Joke
    Adam: “Why don’t scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything.”
    Dan: “That’s not terrible. That’s decent.” (34:39)

• Panel lightly roasts each other with impressions.
  Dan: “I have a huge headache today…” (03:30–03:49)
  Adam & Jamie: Various impressions and self-deprecating humor.

• On Dynasty Tanking:

[Dan]

This is fantasy football Today from CBS Sports. What a play. Can you believe this? No, I can't.

[Adam]

It's time to dominate your fantasy league.

[Dan]

Off to the races.

[Adam]

And he stays on his feet.

[Dan]

This is gonna go the distance. Now here's some combination of Adam, Dave.

[Adam]

Jamie and he Mailman. What's up, everybody?

[Dan]

Welcome to.

[Adam]

You have one of those?

[Dan]

No way.

[Adam]

We both do.

[Dan]

Where'd you get them from?

[Adam]

This is a piece of medical tape that I cut off.

[Dan]

Jamie's looks real.

[Adam]

Jamie went shopping.

[Dan]

Yeah. Oh, wow. All right. I should have brought mine on the show. Now I actually feel comfortable in wearing it now that you Two have done so.

[Jamie]

I mean, this is amazing, right?

[Dan]

Can you actually breathe with that thing? It's unreal.

[Adam]

So much better. I mean, I have a deviate. I have a deviated side. One septum is entirely deviated. The other septum is half de. Deviated because I've never breathed like this before. This is amazing. I'm gonna go golfing in and go shopping in it. Welcome to fantasy football today, presented by betmgm. Make it legendary. And welcome to the mailbag surprise nose trip day here.

[Jamie]

The reason I was late is actually it's a tan nose strip. I had to color it. That's why I took so.

[Adam]

Oh, yeah. Mine's not quite as visible.

[Dan]

That's like my magnets on the fridge. Sadly, I shouldn't have even brought those up, as I did suffer my first loss in the baked burger league.

[Adam]

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that, buddy.

[Dan]

It's better than scoring 16 points a week like you do, Adam.

[Adam]

I actually scored zero points last week in the big burger league, so.

[Dan]

Oh, good for you. You're a real fun team.

[Adam]

And I'm tanking in my other dynasty league, so.

[Dan]

Oh, great. So you're just in full tank mode and all. Dynasty. Good luck in that.

[Jamie]

Of that.

[Adam]

Yeah, it sucks.

[Dan]

It's the worst. Tanking never works. It's better on paper than it actually is in dynasty.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Dan]

Can I do my Adam impression now that you did yours?

[Adam]

Oh, you have one.

[Dan]

This. This comes in before you even arrived here today, Jamie. He's wearing a hoodie over his head. Looks totally just depressed and dejected. I have a huge headache today.

[Adam]

I don't sound anything like that bad.

[Dan]

Impression, but that is what you said.

[Adam]

It was really funny, though. I have a. I have a huge headache today, basically.

[Dan]

What?

[Jamie]

It was.

[Adam]

All right. I do have a headache and a stomach. I always get a stomachache and a headache at the same time. It's really bad. But anyway, we're gonna start with your yout questions. We've got your emails at fantasy football cbsi.com the letter I. Fantasy football cbsi.com fantasy cops, Apple podcasts, Spotify and more YouTube. I'm lightheaded right now. This is going to be a tough show. All right, let's start with YouTube here. All right, I lost Tucker Craft. Should I trade Josh Jacobs for Saquon Barkley and Orande Gadsden?

[Jamie]

Yes. Yeah. What?

[Adam]

Yeah, do that. Smash that like button. Yes, please hit the like button. We really appreciate it. Likes dead ringer. Dad.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Dan]

Yours was actually really good. Of me?

[Adam]

Yeah, his impression was terrible. What are you guys talking about? You didn't even hear me complain about the headache. He'll give him credit.

[Dan]

I've heard you complain so much in the past. That's ingrained in their minds.

[Adam]

Henderson or Travis etn ppr.

[Jamie]

I'm gonna go Anderson.

[Dan]

Okay. Yeah, I'll take Anderson there. It's tougher for me. It's close in ppr.

[Adam]

Okay. Both of them going up against tough run defenses. Camara or Kyle Pitts. Half ppr.

[Jamie]

Oh, anybody but Khmer at this point.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Adam]

This is really bothering me, this nose thing.

[Dan]

Yours isn't good. Like, Jamie has the real one. You want it to be the magnetic one that pulls it apart.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Dan]

There's a lot of science behind it that I've studied. Not by study. I mean watch the 30 second Instagram video and got immediately hooked. And quick buy. Oh, no. They get me so bad. I'm one of the worst when it comes to these Instagram ads. I am so bad that that is bad.

[Adam]

Yeah, you gotta. Yeah.

[Dan]

All things I need.

[Adam]

Menangai, Alec Pierce or Darius Slayton. Pick one.

[Dan]

This is so good.

[Adam]

Adam got a team of nose managing over Pearson Slayton. That's risky, Jamie.

[Jamie]

Why is it risky?

[Adam]

Well, if he goes back to his old role, you know, that could be nine carries, one. Two. One or two catches.

[Dan]

You know, I would go Alec Pierce.

[Adam]

I didn't realize Pierce was Slayton.

[Jamie]

Slayton was my other choice.

[Dan]

Sleep.

[Jamie]

What do we.

[Dan]

We're not on on Pierce. Why are we out on Pierce?

[Jamie]

Well, first off, he 2. He's had two good games in his last three. One was without Josh Downs on the field. This is a much tougher secondary that he's facing than he faced than he faced last week because the Steelers were just abysmal. And so I would just view it as Slayton's matchups. Much better. If he caught the two touchdowns that he should have caught the last two weeks. I think we'd have a much different view of Darius Layton. I know you don't because you're obviously studying the Giants as much as anybody. But I think perception of it is.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Jamie]

Like he's been bad. Like if he catches the. If the 68 yard interference counts and the 34 yard dart, that dart through to him, he catches like he's had two big games in a row.

[Dan]

That's fair. I mean, I just. I like Pierce a lot.

[Jamie]

Fantasy.

[Dan]

I understand.

[Jamie]

I like Pierce too. I just don't think this is the week to trust him because it's not a dome situation for Daniel Jones. This has not been when he's thrived so far.

[Dan]

True. He needs.

[Jamie]

And the Falcons, for what it's worth, their secondary play ball.

[Dan]

All right, that's a good point about the dome. Jones outside of a dome is an ugly sight. Oops, I shouldn't have said that. I'm not supposed to say anything bad about him anymore. My bad. He's amazing. I forgot.

[Adam]

Is that right? Okay.

[Dan]

I just can. At this point I get buried by people for it.

[Adam]

Khalil Shakir or Alec Pierce.

[Dan]

I just think I get the Pierce issues. And obviously last week was outside of a dome and he still produced. I just think from watching the two games of tape I watched on the Colts offense, it's so defined. Like his role is so defined. He's outside boundary receiver and there is just nothing out there but a corner playing 10 to 20 yards off the ball because he has to, because he never has safety help. The entire defense is just so glued in on the run game. And then taking away Warren and taking away Pittman on the other side, he's just backside X or Z one on one. So it's just like they run go. They run comeback deep curl with him and they run deep out and he's got a one on one.

[Jamie]

He.

[Dan]

He's got a ton of space, the corners and off leverage.

[Jamie]

Listen, I don't disagree. He's yet to score a touchdown this season. Yeah.

[Dan]

Touchdowns. Right.

[Jamie]

And you know, it could be a two catch, 60 yard day for him.

[Dan]

It could definitely be. That's totally fair. He doesn't get the extra. Yep.

[Jamie]

All right.

[Adam]

Would you trade Drake London for in an 18 team league?

[Jamie]

Wow.

[Adam]

London from Travion Henderson and Lad McConkey.

[Jamie]

No, I don't think you want to do that at this moment. Just because Henderson is starting to really get to the point where he should take over the backfield.

[Dan]

No, he's saying the opposite. He's trading London to get Henderson and McConkey. Oh, no. Right. Yeah.

[Adam]

Yes.

[Dan]

So aren't you saying you're. You're speaking for him?

[Adam]

Which side would you rather have? London or Henderson and McConkey in an 18 team league?

[Jamie]

I'd rather have Henderson. McConkey.

[Dan]

I'd rather have London. Still, I think London is concerned.

[Jamie]

I think to be fair, like I play in a 20. I think it's 20 teams. A 20 team league where you start one receiver, one running back, one tight end and two flexes. So the lineup's very small. So if that's the same type of situation, then you want to have the best player. If it's a typical lineup, I'd rather have a little bit more options.

[Adam]

Man. Two games, more than 30 fantasy points for Drake London. Three games of 25 or more. The other four games are kind of crap, though. Start Debo, Samuel Jordan, Addison or Tyler Warren in ppr?

[Dan]

I think it's Warren for me.

[Jamie]

You sure it's Tyler Warren? No.

[Dan]

Oh, if it's Jalen, then it's definitely Jalen Warren for me.

[Jamie]

I would start either Warren and Addison over debo.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Jamie]

Yep.

[Adam]

A.J. brown or Wandale Robinson?

[Jamie]

What happened there?

[Adam]

A.J.

[Dan]

Brown'S trying to put up a funny comment. My bad.

[Adam]

AJ Brown or Wanda Robinson? PP Bar.

[Jamie]

PBR AJ Brown.

[Dan]

Yeah, AJ Brown.

[Jamie]

Although I like both.

[Adam]

Daniel Jones or Brock Purdy?

[Dan]

Brock Purdy's not playing, is he?

[Jamie]

I don't think we know if Purdy's playing yet. So if Purdy plays, I'd still go Jones. So I go. Yeah.

[Dan]

All right. Jones. No matter what, I don't want to put Purdy back in with it. Chance of re aggravation in game.

[Adam]

Okay, let's read some news here. I'm just going to read from my phone. Ramondre Stevenson not stretching at practice. This just came in. Also, Keisha Booty, Christian Ellis. Looks like the Patriots are probably going to be without Ramandre Stevenson, Keisha Booty and linebacker Christian Ellis. See, we've got Arizona has Mack Wilson, one of their better linebackers, and two cornerbacks out. So that is going to help Sam Darnold. That is going to help the Seahawks offense. Arizona is pretty beat up going into this game. Looks like the Giants are not going to have their center.

[Dan]

John Michael Smith, but they've been better. They've been like, fine without him.

[Adam]

And they're probably not going to have their kicker, Graham Gano. So it looks like Young Way Coo is going to be kicking for them. And there was one. Oh, James Cook is good to go.

[Dan]

Nice.

[Jamie]

You want more Patriots stuff?

[Adam]

Aaron Glenn said yes in one minute. Aaron Glenn says he knows who his quarterback is going to be, but he won't tell us because he doesn't have to. That's from Connor Hughes.

[Jamie]

Rich. So many just said obviously it's going to. Obviously. That's a nod toward Fields.

[Adam]

Oh, okay. Bill's defense a little beat up this week? I'm reluctantly streaming them as a DST and. Okay, that's all I got. What do you got from the Patriots?

[Jamie]

No case on Booty either. At practice.

[Adam]

I said that twice.

[Jamie]

Oh, I'm sorry. I pulled a Dave and an atom and an Adam. Thought there was one more. Oh, Matt LaFleur just said that Jacob's dealing with the calf injury, says he feels great, so that's a big plus. We're definitely a different team when he's fully involved in our offense, and we've got to make. And we got to make him the focal point whether he's getting the ball or not.

[Adam]

That's good because it really has been a decrease in the touches and, you know. Nah. There's been an increase in Emmanuel Wilson's work certainly since this calf injury started.

[Dan]

By the way, Adam, did you pull the nose strip mid episode? Yeah.

[Adam]

It was really annoying.

[Dan]

You got to be dedicated to the bit. If you're going to do a bit, you can't just bail out of a bit at any point. This reminds me of the time during draft.

[Adam]

I have a headache, Dan. Give me a break.

[Dan]

Yeah, that's you.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Dan]

Do you. This reminds me the time during draftathon where you said, we get to a thousand likes, I will shave something on the side of my head. We got to a thousand likes. The time came, and all of a sudden your wife was on an important business call at 10:30pm on a FAR. On a Wednesday night.

[Jamie]

Okay.

[Adam]

You have spoken to her directly about this, and she confirmed the veracity of it.

[Dan]

I don't know that if she was coerced or not.

[Jamie]

You almost dropped the F word there, too.

[Adam]

No, I didn't.

[Jamie]

I.

[Dan]

No, I did not. I. I don't know if she was coerced into agreeing to that before I met her. Like, there's a very good chance that you got involved.

[Adam]

She was. By the way, Dan, I have a couple of dad jokes for you.

[Dan]

Oh, no.

[Adam]

Someone wrote in with this.

[Dan]

They better be good this time.

[Adam]

They're always good. It said something like, if. If. Oh, here we go. If pilgrims were alive today, what would they be known for?

[Dan]

I don't care.

[Adam]

What their age.

[Jamie]

I don't care.

[Dan]

Their age. Alive today. What would they be known for? Their age.

[Adam]

Because they'd be, like, really, really old. Several hundred years old.

[Dan]

That's one of the worst ones. We've tried this. Give me another. Give me another.

[Adam]

Jamie.

[Dan]

It has to be like an innuendo to it or like a two. Like, it doesn't make sen. Jamie.

[Adam]

No, it doesn't.

[Dan]

You don't get it.

[Adam]

You just don't get the house. I don't get it.

[Dan]

I don't get it.

[Jamie]

If.

[Dan]

If I like golf, what would I known for a golfer.

[Jamie]

Ball every day.

[Dan]

What would I be known for?

[Jamie]

I like golf.

[Dan]

Like, give me some kind of two. Look, the fence joke was funny, right? I'm on the fence. That's good. Like, you get it. Like you're a fan.

[Adam]

Hold on, hold on. Jamie, can you tell the joke that you texted me last night?

[Dan]

Give me something decent to work with.

[Adam]

I haven't.

[Jamie]

Why is the sand at the beach always wet, Dan?

[Dan]

I don't know.

[Jamie]

Seaweed?

[Adam]

Because the seaweed.

[Dan]

Because the seaweed.

[Adam]

Yeah, like, the seaweed, like, peed. That's why the sand's always.

[Dan]

Oh, I guess that's a little better because at least it has something to it.

[Adam]

This pilgrim's joke is amazing.

[Dan]

Pilgrim joke is so bad, it's beyond belief. Oh, because they've been around for a while. You could say that about anything. That's terrible.

[Adam]

But you.

[Dan]

The fence joke was good. You understand what I'm looking for? I'm looking for something like that.

[Adam]

The setup of the joke.

[Dan]

What?

[Adam]

You're looking. You're looking for a pun?

[Dan]

Yeah. Something decent, Jamie. Like, oh, I'm on the fence. You get it. You're a fence company, and you're trying to build a fence, and I'm on the fence, and I don't know if I want to do it like that Makes sense as a dad joke, Dan.

[Adam]

That's a pun, and it was. It was mine. I thought that jokes are supposed to.

[Dan]

Be about puns, not just stating obvious things.

[Adam]

No. What are pilgrims know? What would they be known for? You're thinking, oh, okay. What did pilgrims do that they'd be famous for somebody their age, it was such a hilarious setup, a great joke. All right, let's. Let me Listen, Let me tell you about BetMGM. All right.

[Dan]

All right, tell us about BET.

[Adam]

All right, picture this. You bet on your favorite player to score the first touchdown in the game. His teammate scores instead. If this happens, bet. MGM wants to give you another chance at the end zone with BetMGM second chance promotion. You'll get your stake back if your first touchdown scorer scores second instead. That's right. Bet on any pro football player to score the first touchdown of the game. If you're right, you win. If your player scores second, you get your stake back in cash. With BetMGM Second Chance offer, you have a chance to keep the fun going. After the first player crosses the goal line. Try a first touchdown scorer wager with confidence. Today. BetMGM make it legendary. Boy, dealing with this guy is just difficult. All right, we're going to take a break.

[Dan]

Talking about me.

[Adam]

I know we're going to take a break.

[Dan]

What kind of comment was that? Oh, my God. I'm only one to show up on time today.

[Adam]

All right, we'll take a break. We'll be right back. I was just kidding, dad. Just. I can't believe you don't understand the dad joke.

[Dan]

I don't understand what? I just don't understand what makes that funny. Like to me, like the. Again, a pun can make something funny or other. There are plenty of things that make me.

[Jamie]

I just gotta go one in the. In the chat.

[Adam]

Which one?

[Dan]

Yeah, let's hear one that could be decent.

[Adam]

The dinosaur one.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Now this is bad. Like, this is the one that I understand Dan would. Would not like.

[Dan]

No, that actually is somewhat funny.

[Adam]

What?

[Dan]

Not really, but let me read the joke.

[Adam]

Why can't dinosaurs.

[Jamie]

Why can't they do it?

[Dan]

Because they're extinct.

[Adam]

Why can't it? Hold on, let me read it. Why can't dinosaurs clap their hands? Because they're extinct.

[Dan]

Yeah, it's not good, but it's. At least it's something that Pilgrim's one. Man, that was really bad.

[Adam]

Oh God.

[Dan]

Pilgrim's one really hurt. It was just so bad.

[Adam]

All right, we'll be right back on fantasy football today.

[Dan]

I have to tell you about this game changing product I use before a night out drinking. It's called Pre Alcohol Zebiotic. Pre Alcohol drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. Here's how it works. When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut. It's a buildup of this byproduct product, not dehydration. That's to blame for those rough days after drinking. Pre Alcohol produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. Just remember to make Pre alcohol your first drink of the night. Drink responsibly and you'll feel your best tomorrow. A couple weeks back, saw my morning jacket at the Brooklyn Paramount. But I had an early morning tea time the next day. All the way in New Jersey, had my prebiotic. Pre alcohol went out, enjoyed the concert, woke up the next morning, got to the tee time in time and pard the first hole. Make the most of every toast, tailgate and touchdown this holiday season. Just don't forget to bring Pre Alcohol along for the ride.

[Dan]

I want to make this clear, by the way, okay. JMB says Dan comes out of the womb grumpy. I'm not a grumpy person. Just because I don't appreciate or like dad jokes doesn't make me grumpy. I'm pretty happy person in general, in life. But I'm just trying to come to terms with why these are funny. Because they just don't. They just don't sound funny to me. Like, did anyone laugh when you said the pilgrim joke? No, but then you're supposed to be like, oh, you get it. It's funny. That doesn't make something funny. That's not like, funny is when people laugh.

[Adam]

You want to know what's funny? There was a basketball game yesterday. I saw a highlight once. The team got to 67 points. All the kids in the crowd went crazy because of 6 7. That is what we're being overtaken by these days.

[Dan]

I've just given up on the 67 thing. I don't understand and I don't want to.

[Adam]

Yeah, I wouldn't try to explain it to you. Email is a fantasy football. Cbsi.com. i was gonna say we have a new producer today. Her name is Emma. She's never met us before. This is her first interaction with us, and she thinks we're insane. So welcome to the show.

[Jamie]

I gotta go.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Jamie]

I lost. I lost the dictionary. My wife asked me to look upstairs. I was like, I can't look up anything.

[Adam]

All right? Andrew says pick one for a flex. Tyrone, Tracy. Sorry.

[Dan]

Whoa.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Dan]

What was that?

[Adam]

Tyrone, Tracy, Zach, Charbonnet or Woody Marks. Or drop one of them and add and flex Dalton Kincaid, Tracy Charbonnet, Woody Marks or Kincaid?

[Dan]

Kincaid. And as far as who I would drop. I would drop Marks. Marks. I was gonna say, yeah, I would drop Tracy. It could be Tracy.

[Adam]

Honestly, from Michael, Ken Walker or Kamani Vidal?

[Dan]

Walker.

[Jamie]

Walker's fine. Sure.

[Adam]

By the way, Dan, do you. What do you think happened with. I was. Jamie asked me this on Monday. I think. I didn't know. What do you think Tracy got benched for Singletary last week.

[Dan]

Oh, as far as, like, what happened? No, I. I think specifically, like, they're just planning to play Singletary more than we expected. Everyone expected the role would turn back to Tracy. It never. Like, he had the role last year. He lost it toward the end of the year when he fumbled and then he had a pretty bad start to the game. So they just gave it a single terror. I'll just say this like they're different runners. Tracy needs more of a. I feel like Tracy needs to get going in, like, in flow. I also think the blocking, the way it's been, struggling up front to create any yards before contact, it's a better fit for Singletary. He's better at jump cuts. He's better at creating, you know, more in between the tackles. Tracy's more of like a head of steam type of runner. It's just not working for him right now.

[Jamie]

Singletary also is one of these guys. It was kind of the. I kept saying this at the start of the season about why Naji Harris, I didn't think he was going to go away, is he's a veteran guy that just does things right, doesn't do anything explosive. So they both trust him. He knows that if he needs him to do something minimal, he'll get the minimal. He just won't get the maximum.

[Adam]

All right, From Jared, I have Ken Walker, Zach Charbonnet, Aaron Jones and both Bears running backs. I need to start three of them. So both Seahawks, both Bears and Aaron Jones.

[Jamie]

Pick three, both Bears and Aaron Jones.

[Dan]

What are the other options? Again, I'm in with both Bears. What's the options I have instead of.

[Jamie]

Jones, either Walker, Charbonnet or Aaron Jones. I'll go Walker.

[Dan]

I don't love it, but at some point he's got to break a long touchdown run.

[Jamie]

Can you just play the Dave clip again? What was it I said? Dave said, I'm going to start Walker because of exactly what you just said. Yeah, one of these weeks he's going to do something. I said, we say the same thing every week. I said, one of us. It wasn't Picking on Dave. I said one of us says this every week and every week we're always wrong.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Okay, Next email is from Nathan. I've been offered Woody Marks for Tajie spears. Straight up 14 team, half PPR keeper league. Both would carry 10th round value next year. Woody Marks for Tajie Spears. Who would you rather have?

[Jamie]

Oh, boy. I don't know if either one will ever be the featured option on their team. I would have more faith in Woody Marks simply because I expect his head coach to be there. We do not know what the next head coach is going to be for the Titans and what anything that might look like, aside from Cam Ward as the quarterback.

[Adam]

All right, this is from Wesley. I traded Brian Thomas Jr. For Troy Franklin before last night's game. I don't think I'm crazy for doing it. What do you all think?

[Jamie]

I mean, in redraft, I. I would have said no, but I mean, obviously production is production at some point. You know, Brian Thomas just not getting the job done. Now there's another mouth to feeding that offense. And when Hunter comes back, if he does come back, it's going to be a really tough target crunch. So maybe it works out for you. But you know, these are the type of trades, like, you look back and say, ha, I was right. Yeah, they're going in. You're like, what are you crazy?

[Adam]

Okay, sorry. I'm reading these terrible dad jokes in the chat. Let's go back to the emails from Michael.

[Dan]

Oh, oh. So your dad jokes are amazing, but these ones in the chat are terrible.

[Adam]

I only tell the funny ones from like.

[Dan]

Like this guarantee you at least two of every five in the chat are funnier than the pilgrim one from Michael.

[Adam]

I'd like to start out by saying the reheat method is a winner. I even started to recommend this technique to my friends and they agree.

[Dan]

What's that?

[Adam]

I think that's what you said.

[Dan]

Leave a. Oh, my. Spread it around the thing. That's awesome.

[Jamie]

There we go.

[Dan]

I'm getting a win here.

[Adam]

I do. That's for your ego. Pick one. To start. I don't have the format, but Jalen Warren, Jordan Addison, Quentin Johnston.

[Dan]

Warren.

[Jamie]

Jalen Warren who?

[Adam]

Jordan Addison, Quentin Johnston.

[Jamie]

Warren is the safest. Yes.

[Adam]

From Dennis. Good morning. Breathe. Right. Equate Z, Z, quill and high strips. Who do I start at? Ppr, Khalil Shakir or Rashad White?

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Could also go with any of these four. Videl Fannin Goddard, Juwan Jennings.

[Dan]

Oh, maybe Vidal. But I think I would just stick.

[Jamie]

With where we're at, I'd go Quentin Johnson, Cousin Ernest with a decent dad joke.

[Adam]

Okay. It's Jamie. I'm very happy that you go Quentin Johnston. Unfortunately, he's not part of this question.

[Jamie]

What did you say?

[Adam]

I said Videl, Fannin Goddard, Juwan Jennings.

[Jamie]

They said are one of the other guys.

[Adam]

Yeah. Khalil Shakira, Rashad White.

[Jamie]

Oh, I was on the previous question. I'm sorry. Yeah. Rashad White over Khalil Shakir. And then tell me the game names again.

[Adam]

So Rashad White, Khalil Shakir, or any of these four. Videl, Fanon Goddard, Juwan Jennings.

[Jamie]

Fanon if he plays. If not, Juwan Jennings.

[Adam]

All right, I. I think people might be. Wait, you're saying Fanon or Juwan Jennings over Rashad White?

[Jamie]

No, Rashad White and then Fannin.

[Adam]

But it's not that. It basically he asked the question in.

[Dan]

A very weird way.

[Adam]

He had six options and needed one. Your answer is Rashad White. I think that people kind of feel like Rashad White is going to have. Well, I think people might think that Sean Tucker's not going to have much of a role, which was the case in the first three games without Bucky Irving. I think last week without Bucky Irving or two weeks ago without Bucky Irving. He was the goal line back. Well, he was. He worked in at the goal line. He got a lot of carries. I don't know what's going to happen. But Rashad White's.

[Jamie]

Oh, I don't.

[Adam]

I. Yeah, go ahead.

[Jamie]

I don't love Rashad White. I have Rashad White as a start and start sit. Mostly because of what he. I'm expecting him to do in ppr. This Patriots defense has been miserable against pass catching running backs. Miserable. They've allowed eight receptions to running back groups per week in the last four games. 32 receptions in the last four games. So if there's a chance for Rashad White to win, it is going to be based on what he does as a pass catcher. Will that be a lot? I don't know. He's been basically four catches a game. So if he can get four catches for 40 some odd yards, maybe. Let's just say be optimistic. Four for 30 gets you 30, 40 yards on the ground, has a chance to score. It's gonna be around 11 PPR points.

[Adam]

Okay, this is from Todd. I'm considering starting the Ravens defense while my opponent is starting J.J. mcCarthy. Do you guys ever care about that? No, not to me.

[Dan]

No.

[Adam]

It doesn't matter.

[Dan]

Not to Me?

[Jamie]

No, no. I mean, you know, it's. It's. Obviously, if you could avoid it, you'd want to avoid it because you're basically count.

[Adam]

Sorry. Harold Fannon's back at practice. Not good for the Joku share.

[Dan]

That's a reaction from you that you're not gonna get. Joke. This is sad. What league is that? Is this. What league is that?

[Adam]

My Tucker craft league is super fast.

[Jamie]

I think you still get by with the Joker as a starter.

[Adam]

I think it's about. Yeah, I mean, I'm still gonna start him, but I thought maybe he could have a huge week. Fanon.

[Dan]

But huge week with Dylan Gabriel. In what world?

[Adam]

In the world where Dylan Gabriel throws five yards to his tight ends on 50 of his dropouts.

[Jamie]

I mean, the best game that Fannon had was without Najoka, so it could have the other way.

[Adam]

Yeah, okay. Sorry about that. Harold Fannon Jr. I'm happy you're back. This is from Todd. Oh, no, I just read that one from Jake. Pick two. Teterroa McMillan, Keenan Allen, Jalen Waddle, Debo Samuel Tetero, McMillan, Keenan Allen,. Jalen Waddle, Debo Samo. Pick two.

[Jamie]

Model. Jalen Waddle and Tet for me.

[Dan]

I'll go McMillan. Yeah. I don't feel good about Samuel at all.

[Adam]

This one is interesting. From Chez PPR. Marvin Harrison Jr. Or Derrick Henry.

[Dan]

Chess Henry for sure. I've been trying to trade for Henry a lot this week, see what I can get. Their schedule so nice down the stretch. Man, have you seen the Raven schedule? I feel like trading for all Ravens right now is just an absolute, absolutely great move to make.

[Adam]

Okay.

[Dan]

If you can.

[Adam]

The guys, the three players I want to trade for are hopefully super cheap. On Cortland Sutton, he still has a buy coming up. Oh, and oh, oh. I'm pretty excited about Abuka. I think he's gonna have a big.

[Dan]

Oh, yeah.

[Adam]

And Roma Dunes.

[Dan]

I mean, on the Guka one, I'm not sure I know Dunes.

[Jamie]

A.

[Dan]

What makes you high on that one?

[Adam]

Not so high. I just think he's gonna be a number two receiver and people are really frustrated because he's been bad in three of his last four games. But he's super talented. He's an end zone target, consistent end zone target. I just, you know, I'm just buying Roma Dunes. I'd have to look at the schedule, make sure they don't have a bunch of outdoor cold weather games down the stretch, which they might. In fact, let's do that. But Abuka, it would Be my, I would think my favorite buy low right now.

[Jamie]

The sudden one, you said the Bucks news.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Dan]

The sudden one scares me. Them just actually before I say that, what's the news? Just so for people who don't know it, let's say it.

[Jamie]

Oh, Godwin. Not expected to be back until late November, early December, if anything.

[Dan]

Yeah, I think that injury is real bad. We'll see what happens.

[Adam]

It's one of those like I'm asking for a friend things there.

[Jamie]

What's the news that I don't know. Tell everybody.

[Dan]

No, I knew, I knew I knew.

[Adam]

I think Dan thought there might be.

[Dan]

No one can prove if I knew that or not. There's no way to prove that. But I will say this. As far as Sutton goes, you're dealing with Bo Nicks. And I think those of us who watched last night and those of us who watch tape of Bo Nicks this year have a very different opinion on Bo Nicks than the stats say or what the public perception is of Nicks. The numbers, they're really bad. As far as accuracy on the 20 plus yard range, no one's been worse than Bo Nicks. 10 to 19 yards, not great either. Where does Sutton win? He wins vertical and he wins on those dig routes, those deep in cuts. That's not an area of the field Nicks is throwing. Well, maybe that will improve as the season goes on. I don't know. He looks wildly uncomfortable in the pocket. They were speaking on it last night, but his footwork is just so bad in the pocket. And that's what he says he likes to do. He says he likes to keep his feet moving in the pocket. That doesn't seem to be a good recipe for accuracy. Now Nicks is a good thrower when he's up. When he gets out of the pocket, he's on the move. But that's like a few plays a game and that's not really good for Sutton. So I'm out on that Sutton call based on that. But just to add to something I said earlier, here's the Raven schedule I was referencing. They have two more games against the Bengals elite. They have a game against the jets defense that just traded away their two best players. That's an elite matchup. They have a Steelers defense game which I think they'll dominate. I know Steelers played well last week, but I don't think they're going to continue that. And then it gets a little tougher. They have or have two more Steelers, I should say. They also have a Patriots and a Packers in there. But man, two Bengals, two Steelers and a Jets. That's really good for. For Baltimore.

[Adam]

Okay. And then for. For Odunse. He does have. Yeah, it's not great. It's at, you know, at Philadelphia at Week 13 at Philadelphia at Green Bay, Cleveland at home, Green Bay at home, at San Francisco. A lot of cold weather outdoor games there. So we have to. I didn't think about that. Just try to take advantage of a panicking manager. Cause he's obviously going to be better than this. All right, this. Let's go. Let's try to go rapid fire here from Mike Grade. The trade. I trade Genti and wondale for H.N. and Benson.

[Dan]

Oh, I love that trade.

[Jamie]

Genti and Wandale for Hn and I.

[Dan]

Absolutely love that trade. Yeah, it's amazing. Trade.

[Adam]

Sal is in a 10 team half PPR league. Give up. ETN Abuka, Waddle and Myers. ETN, Abuka Waddle and Myers for Saquon and Devonte Adams.

[Dan]

Yeah. Yeah. Unreal trade by you. A plus.

[Adam]

You're a little too excited about it.

[Dan]

A plus.

[Jamie]

So Abuka, who was after Abuka before Myers.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Etn, Abuka, Waddle, Myers for Barkley and Adams.

[Dan]

Three for two, essentially. I mean, unless you think Myers can do something there.

[Jamie]

I do think it's in the favor of the two players, but I don't think it's a slam dunk.

[Dan]

Agreed.

[Adam]

B minus, full ppr. Who should I sit? Vidal, Slayton or Alec Pierce?

[Dan]

I would sit Slayton.

[Jamie]

I slay is my favorite. I would sit Vidal.

[Dan]

I'm okay with setting Videl as well, though. I mean, it's late. I don't think that the production is going to be what people think offensively in this giant spares game. That's my prediction of the show and we'll see if I'm right or wrong. But I think this game is rejected for a lot of points. Both defenses suck, but the weather will destroy the offense in that game. That's just my early prediction.

[Adam]

That's a concern. Definitely a concern. All right, a couple dad jokes before we get to the fantasy cops here. From Daryl. Why can't you go hungry at the beach? Because all of the sandwich is there.

[Dan]

Not bad sandwich is there? It's not terrible. It's not good.

[Adam]

He even put in parentheses sandwiches. Dan.

[Dan]

I don't need that. Daryl. I don't need that. Daryl. It's not that I don't get these jokes, Dan.

[Adam]

Clearly I'm not going to display this on the screen. But why? Because I don't want you to see the punchline. Why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything.

[Dan]

Oh, God. Because Adams make up everything. That's not terrible. That's not terrible. That's decent.

[Jamie]

Look on your face was terrible, though, when you had to figure it out. Just not.

[Dan]

It's just not fun. Like, it's not good. It's better. It's better.

[Adam]

And Jamie, why don't you go ahead and explain that joke just for the people out there who don't understand it. All right. We'll be right back with the fantasy cops on Fantasy Football today, people.

[Adam]

All right. Fantasy cops. Oh, wait, can I, can I share something sort of, sort of personal, Fantasy football related. So I just want to say, right, this is important because there's a league, I have a couple of friends in this league, and there was a trade that happened that is fracturing the league and leading to some. No, I don't love it at all. It's. It's bad. Like, it's bad to see people spiraling, you know, getting upset about the.

[Dan]

And I love a good fantasy spiral. Via DM or what is it? Via email or text.

[Adam]

No, it's text. I mean, these are friends in the league, you know, and not anymore. It's getting a little cheese, Dan. Why are you celebrating that? We don't want that.

[Dan]

I love a good spiral. No, everybody loves. This is the best part about fantasy.

[Adam]

I mean, look, I saw some of the text messages. This guy, 6 and 3 team, traded with a 2 and 7 team.

[Dan]

Yeah, never good.

[Adam]

And the trade. But the 2 and 17 is not a. They're not eliminated from the playoffs. They're still alive. They have Jamar Chase who's on a buy. They have Ramandre Stevenson who's out. So they traded Jamar Chase and Stevenson to a 6 and 3 team for Chris Olave, a Mecca Abuka Travion Henderson and DeAndre Swift.

[Dan]

No, that's perfectly fine.

[Adam]

I don't even know that the guy who got chased made a good trade. The six and three teams. Anyway, many members of the league are flipping out. They don't want this, this guy to have Chase because he has rice and lamb. I referenced this earlier in the week, but I'm just saying you need to have a steadfast hard rule here, right? If a team is not eliminated from playoff contention, they can make trades. Doesn't matter that he's 2 and 7, he still has a shot. And also, the only reason to veto trades would be a playoff team. A team eliminated made a trade or there's collusion. And if you just live by those rules, right, then you won't have this stress. You just accept the trades. And I don't want the six and three. Sorry, I'm almost done. I don't want the six and three team to have. Jamar Chase is never a good enough reason to veto a trade. And then it's the Worst reason to.

[Dan]

Veto a trade, actually.

[Adam]

And then the 6 and 3 team who made the trade and got Chase did troll the. The chat. The. The group. I saw the text he sent. He sent like a lot of AI chat GBG images of like Jamar Chase joining his team for him. Yeah, a little. But jb, no, no, no.

[Dan]

That was great by him.

[Adam]

What are you gonna say, Jamie?

[Jamie]

Everybody else in the league is pissed.

[Adam]

Not everybody, but like, for he. It got four vetoes and needed five to be. To be overturned. Disgusting.

[Dan]

Disgusting. This is a great example. This whole fantasy cops is a great example of why people like me and I see some people in the chat. Those are my people say that there should be no vetoes unless there's collusion or you have another good reason I think is actually fair, which is if you're eliminated from the playoffs. Because the fact that a trade like this where Buka has been so good and will be so good rest of season. Now we have the Godwin news that I knew about for sure. I just want to let Jamie let everyone else know about. Plus, you're getting two backs. Henderson, who's on trending up and Swift will be back next week. That trade should never be vetoed. The fact that it got four vetoes proves that these people vetoing it are just vetoing it because they don't want. Because they're unhappy that one team improved via the trade and we'll be getting chased. It's a perfect example why veto should never happen.

[Adam]

That's it.

[Dan]

It's. This is it. I'll bring this up in the future too.

[Jamie]

This is the league you're in or your friend that.

[Adam]

That my tennis coach is. But the two tennis coaches, like my old one, they're in it and they text me about it all the time and like, it felt like it was getting a little too heated. And I just don't want to see that happen, you know, in a league. And I get it, like you're playing in a league. You think something unfair happened. But if you just. I agree. But if you just have guidelines for what constitutes a vetoable trade, you won't run into this problem. You'll just accept them, which is the way it should be. So that's why we always say we. We only veto for collusion. Or it has to be such an egregious trade that it breaks the balance of the league or something like that. And that's not even close to the case here.

[Jamie]

I had an issue in. In. In a league where don't say the site because I don't want to embarrass anybody. But Dan was in, but he's no longer in, where somebody, thank God, dropped a player they said was by mistake and then asked me, said, oh, oh, crap. I didn't mean to drop that player. It was a week later.

[Adam]

Yeah, a week later.

[Dan]

No, no, no, no.

[Jamie]

Player was on a buy.

[Dan]

No.

[Jamie]

And I said, I. I can't help you. I'm sorry.

[Dan]

Like, yeah, no, no, Literally, if you.

[Jamie]

Told me within a day or two, I would have said, oh, okay, honest mistake. I get A week later, he went to go set his lineup and I was like, why is he not there? I thought he was on my bench. And I was like, no.

[Adam]

Yeah, no. You know what?

[Dan]

It's actually, I don't know what happened here.

[Adam]

Our first Fantasy Cops is about something very similar, but the first, this hilarious impromptu dad joke from Mike. The tennis boys don't. The tennis boys don't love each other. I guess that's good. All right.

[Dan]

That's good.

[Adam]

Fantasy Cops.

[Jamie]

What world is that good?

[Adam]

I feel like I have been wronged in my league. I'm in a waiver wire priority league where I had the number three priority and I had a claim in for Luke Musgrave. At 10:46pm Tuesday night, Jake Ferguson was dropped. So I canceled my Musgrave waiver priority to save it for a chance at getting Jake Ferguson. And I put a claim in for Ferguson. Just two hours later, at 12:50am Jake Ferguson got re added to the team who originally dropped him. And since it was after midnight, I could not go back and put a claim in for Musgrave. I immediately messaged the commissioner, who is my brother, and asked what happened. He said the Ferguson manager screwed up, dropped him by accident, so he gave him back. But I explained how that screwed me over because I changed my waiver claim based on the fact that I thought I could get Ferguson. So I asked the commissioner, since I was third on the priority list, if the two guys ahead of me don't get Musgrave, I should be awarded Musgrave. He said no. And of course, Musgrave went to somebody who had a lower waiver wire priority than me. Should I be awarded Musgrave? Should Ferguson have given been given back to the manager? Am I just screwed here? Please help.

[Jamie]

Ferguson should have been getting back to the manager. If they corrected it within sounds like an appropriate amount of time. You know, unfortunately, again, I. I think we had this with when Dan hated truck drivers that, you know, sometimes I.

[Dan]

Do not Hate truck drivers.

[Jamie]

You're making a mistake. You know, you're shouldn't be doing ad jobs while you're driving. But people do. Yeah. Hit the wrong button and do.

[Dan]

Or not. We're not excusing this. What do you mean? You shouldn't be doing any of this while you're driving.

[Jamie]

Should he have been given Musgrave? I think so. This is a Tuesday waiver run league.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Jamie]

So the easy fix could have just been, hey, this Ferguson thing screwed up everybody with their waiver claims or screwed up at least one manager waiver claims. We're going to rerun waivers on Wednesday and allow everybody to go back and put their claims in. The man, the. The person writing us puts himself or herself at risk of the first two people claiming Musgrave. Now, yeah, you know, if that's the case, but I don't think it's fair to necessarily punish this person but also take Musgrave off the other team. So if there's no solution, I think you just got screwed.

[Dan]

Yeah, agreed.

[Adam]

Very tough. It's because if you give. If you were to just say, okay, yeah, you get Musgrave because you had the third claim, whatever, then it just screws up everything else after that.

[Dan]

Right.

[Adam]

Because the person who Mushroom is going to say, well, I put in a claim for this person. And then, yeah, it's a. Yeah. All right. So in the interest of saving time because we went on a little bit of a tangent. Dan, let's go.

[Dan]

No, we need one more quick tangent here. I have something very important I have to discuss that's not actually important at all, but it does clarify how I feel and why I'm so frustrated about these dad jokes. As we. Yeah, it wasn't a good.

[Adam]

That was very Admiral Levita view right there.

[Dan]

So, you know, you made the joke where it's just basically like, oh, the word love in tennis is like a score. And it's also like to love something. You're just doing a double meaning. It's not funny. But. But like, there are versions of dad jokes that I love and they're dependent on the delivery. And someone in the chat did a great job of explaining this. And now I feel so seen and heard. Mitch Hedberg, a comedian I love, he did a bunch of dad jokes. Those were hilarious. I listened to those. I crack up. It's. It's a natural crack up. It's very funny. That's what a dad joke should be. Go listen to Mitch Hedberg. The way he delivers the joke. It's all on the Delivery. Basically a dad joke. So you want a good dad joke? Go listen to Mitch Hedberg. You want to hear bad dad jokes? Come join the mailbag.

[Jamie]

Everyone, just. Just so we're clear, a professional comedian telling jokes is funnier than us?

[Dan]

Well, it's not that.

[Adam]

It's, like, funny.

[Dan]

One is not. One makes you laugh. The other is just like.

[Jamie]

Oh.

[Dan]

The word love means two things.

[Adam]

That's more of a pun than a dad joke, by the way.

[Jamie]

I'm so frustrated by this.

[Dan]

So frustrated by all.

[Adam]

Adam hates truck drivers. Why? Give us a detailed explanation. No, Dan hates truck.

[Dan]

No, I do not. I hate truck drivers. I do not hate. I said two things about truck drivers. One, the guy who texted us said he's texting and driving, or he's. He's doing his fantasy moves on his app while driving. The other thing I said is, look, when I'm on the road and I see a big truck near me, I don't feel great about it. I just don't. And they have that perpetual left signal on sometimes. I understand.

[Adam]

All right, enough, Dan. From now on, I will try to deliver my joke, my punch lines. Like Mitch Hedberg. I will do my best.

[Dan]

That's not bad.

[Jamie]

Well, that's pretty good.

[Adam]

All right.

[Dan]

That was actually one of your best impressions ever of anything that you've ever done. All right.

[Jamie]

I think I was gonna say frustrate.

[Adam]

Hey, you know what you got? You should want to talk mixtape. All right, so this one says, interesting scenario. Let's call this the fantasy Security Guards. As nothing has been done yet. 12 Team Dynasty Super Flex. A trade has been agreed to. It involves Bo Nix going to one side and Bijan Robinson going to the other side. Here's the issue. There's a lot of other moving parts in it. Bonix is playing as we speak, but I really want Bijan in my lineup this week. So because Knicks is playing now, we can't send the full trade through. Is it shady to divide the trade into two parts? One part involving Bijan now and the second part after this weekend's games, that would send Bo Nicks.

[Dan]

No, no, it's good.

[Adam]

We're good. No, like, wait, no, it. Is it shady?

[Dan]

It's shady. You can't do that.

[Jamie]

That right? Oh, I think you not do that.

[Adam]

Yeah, Jamie was saying.

[Dan]

Wait, so explain it again. I'm confused.

[Adam]

All right, so it's a 10 player.

[Jamie]

Trade, let's just say. And they're taking eight players of the. Of the 10 because Bonix is playing now and they're trading four, verse four, right?

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Jamie]

Yeah. They're gonna later do another trade of bonix for somebody else.

[Adam]

Yeah. Like on Tuesday. They'll do the rest of the trade. I think it's fine.

[Jamie]

There's two separate trades.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Are you reacting to Brian's comment?

[Dan]

I'm just that not reacting to Brian's comment. I'm reacting to terror wreck shops. My dad is a trucker. I don't hate truck drivers. This is a bad bit. I never said I hated truck drivers. I just said you shouldn't be on your fantasy app while you're driving. And the guy said he was a truck driver that did that.

[Jamie]

That was all.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Adam]

No, Dan. Dan does not hate truck drivers. Truck drivers hate Dan, though. All right, that's one. Fantasy cops here. This one is from Eric and he's. Oh, you know what? Eric, There he is. Recently we have an issue in our.

[Jamie]

That's a great joke from Steve.

[Dan]

Yeah, exactly. Steve's joke in the chat is actually what a good dad joke or just anything should be looked like. Actually, I don't think I know if we can put it up. We probably can.

[Adam]

Or can.

[Dan]

But like, that's a great joke.

[Adam]

Not saying it. Not saying. Okay. Last Sunday, week nine, our commissioner made a roster move in Our league at 10:01am after rosters were locked without notifying the league that this had happened. When another league member noticed this had happened a couple hours later, they sent a message to the group chat asking who had their roster changed. The commissioner. 1001:00am by the way, this must be West Coast. Okay. Pacific Northwest. Like. Like San Francisco, right?

[Dan]

Yes. Anyway, Northern. Northern California.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Adam]

The commissioner's response was that, quote, There was a 10am app malfunction. The league member pushed for more information, asking again, who's at malfunction? Who didn't set their lineup in time. The commissioner sent a gift to the group chat that said, I guess we'll never know. This led the league member to respond with, I don't like when the commissioner acts in secret, looking for more transparency. A few more league members chimed in, wanting more information, but the commissioner went radio silent. Then on Monday evening, before the Monday night football game, the commissioner said he was planning to fold the league and that he was frustrated with every little thing being picked apart. He plans to send everyone their money back and act as if. As if the league never happened. This year, some league members have suggested handing over commissioner duties to another league member and finding someone else to manage the commissioner's team if he no longer wants to Be in. But he still seems set on folding the league entirely. What say you, Fantasy copy?

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Dan]

You have to just turn over commissioner duties to someone. Hopefully he doesn't like. Delete everything by that point. This guy is going through a wild crash out this commissioner. This is one of the biggest crash outs you've seen. I mean, just saying. I'm gonna fold the league. No one can have fun if I'm not having fun. You guys are not being like, this is crazy stuff right here. If you can find a way to get control of the league, obviously. Is this Adam? Yeah. You're just talking about yourself. A Big Burger.

[Adam]

3 comments from the chat. People thinking that I'm the commissioner.

[Dan]

No.

[Adam]

I swear. Total stranger here I am worried a.

[Dan]

Bit about you for potentially folding Baked Burger just because how good my team is.

[Adam]

Your team is update for you on that. Someone in our league has offered to take over commissioner duties.

[Dan]

And what are you going to do about it?

[Adam]

I'm debating it. I. I'd be fine.

[Jamie]

That would be the lamest thing you've ever done in your life.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Why? He'd be a much better commissioner than. Than I would be.

[Jamie]

But that's part of the fun is you screwing this up.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Agreed.

[Jamie]

As someone who's been screwed twice by this, I still would let you be the commissioner. Commissioner.

[Dan]

I completely agree. We need. And it's good for the show. It's good for everything. We need you to stay in commission.

[Adam]

Oh, all right. Yeah. This is horrible work by the commissioner. He's a disgrace and it should be kicked out. So thank you for your email.

[Jamie]

Rico is clear to play.

[Dan]

There needs to be like a federal is questionable.

[Adam]

What?

[Dan]

There needs to be like a band list for fantasy football. You know, there's like a band list for things like anyone getting caught doing what that commissioner does or some of these other things we've gone over on Fantas. Got banned for life. You don't. You know you have a list of people you don't allow in league leagues.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Adam]

Can you filibuster for just another 15 seconds or so? I have to get the Apple podcast.

[Dan]

Yeah. So I'll go to Gage Jones's question which is full ppr. I traded Bowers and Nico for Puka. Is this a good trade? My other tight end is McBride for Puka.

[Jamie]

That is not a good trade.

[Adam]

It's not.

[Jamie]

I mean, Bowers probably not. Ah, well.

[Dan]

It's not terrible.

[Jamie]

It's fine.

[Dan]

Bowers has some upside.

[Adam]

Obviously.

[Dan]

A lot.

[Jamie]

Yeah. My bride though.

[Dan]

Puk is the. Oh, yeah. Now you're gonna have to flex Bowers McBride.

[Jamie]

I would have liked something a little. I would like something back in return.

[Dan]

Yeah. I just don't want to trade Poo. If there are players in fantasy that are untradable in my mind in each given season, Puka is one of those players.

[Adam]

Okay, let's get.

[Jamie]

Everyone has a hamstring injury and is not questionable.

[Adam]

Oh, that's not good.

[Dan]

That's. That's Tat McMillan.

[Jamie]

Yeah. Tetero. Yeah.

[Dan]

Tedro. He doesn't like to be called.

[Jamie]

He was added today after being limited to practice, so I'm sure he's gonna play, but.

[Dan]

Okay.

[Adam]

All right, let's get to our Apple podcast.

[Jamie]

Every time I said it again.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Jamie]

I'm hopeful he will play.

[Adam]

Trade request.

[Jamie]

Okay.

[Adam]

Zach Charbonnet, My Zach Charbonnet for. I think it's. I. I actually can't tell what side this is on. Charbonnet for Gadsden in a non PPR standard scoring lead league.

[Jamie]

For Gadsden and non ppr.

[Dan]

Yeah. Any format among Gadsden there.

[Jamie]

I would agree. The only concern would be, is the minute you trade Charbonnet and Ken Walker gets hurt, you're gonna be very upset about that.

[Adam]

I know.

[Jamie]

I know.

[Adam]

He has Tyler Warren, too, who's on a buy next week.

[Jamie]

The only thing I. I'll go back to this. What I said on Wednesday about Bowers, like, trading tight ends at this point, if you're trading them away and you have something of significance to replace them with, and there are so many options now, which is crazy, just how good tight end has been this season. Like, I don't know if I want to be acquiring Gadsden as good as he is. Unless I'm in total desperation because the upside of what Charbonnet could still be. I don't know if I want to give that up. Like, if I don't, that makes sense or not like it does.

[Dan]

Yeah, I do get what you're saying. It's like a. It's, I guess any kind of bench stash at the running back position. There's more upside than we're going to get from Gadsden because he has Warren. I'm out on this trade. If he didn't have a Warren, I would be in.

[Adam]

All right, next question is from J.T. anderson. He made a series of dynasty trades.

[Dan]

Looking for the future Anderson.

[Adam]

Mr. Anderson. Yes. He traded Odunze a third and two movie reference.

[Dan]

Rare movie reference for me, one of the 11 I've seen in my life.

[Adam]

Trade Romo Dunes. A third and two fourth round picks for two first round picks. Chimary DK, Pat Bryant and Jalen Noel.

[Dan]

Dynasty. This was.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Dan]

So it's, it's really interesting. Two ones. What was he giving up besides Rome?

[Adam]

A third and two fourths. And he's also getting DK Bryant and Noel.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Dan]

Those are worth almost nothing in Dynasty. The fourths are worth next to nothing. The third has minimal to no value in Dynasty in my opinion from playing Dynasty the last five, seven years. Third. Occasionally you can get stuff super flex.

[Jamie]

It a little bit different.

[Dan]

A little different. More valued. Tiny bit in Superflex. I'm gonna take this trade. Two ones for Rome. I'm gonna take this trade.

[Jamie]

Yeah, that's. That's the jets sauce. Overpay.

[Dan]

Basically. All those, all those. Oh, wow. You didn't like that? You thought that was a bad.

[Jamie]

No, no, I think it's. It's a good trade for both teams, but I think it's an overpay just for. You're gonna have to overpay to get him because he's under control.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Jamie]

I just don't know if he's worth two first. I don't know how many players we've seen worth two first, last, several years.

[Dan]

Fair.

[Adam]

All right.

[Jamie]

Next.

[Adam]

Next Trade. I gave up London for neighbors and Tez Johnson.

[Jamie]

That's a big one. Neighbors.

[Dan]

What are you talking about?

[Adam]

You gave up Drake London. He's. He's playing next year.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Dan]

Oh, it's a dynasty league.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Jamie]

Oh, London for neighbors and who?

[Adam]

Tez Johnson.

[Dan]

I think it's a good trade. It's a really good trade, actually.

[Jamie]

I. I think a healthy neighbors is definitely better than Drake London. At what point are we going to get a healthy neighbors? When you move to the.

[Adam]

I'll go ring them on. I'll go ring their doorbell. Yeah. Traded Woody Marks for Jameson Williams.

[Dan]

Fine.

[Adam]

And traded a mid-2026 first round pick and an early fourth for Michael Pennix. This must be super Flex.

[Dan]

Super Flex, yeah. This is on you. It depends if you believe Pennix has a shelf life in the NFL. This is a total up to your evaluation of what you've seen of the player. I personally am not very high on Pennix. Long term, I'm not even sure about him. Short term, maybe you'll get another year. I think after this that would be probably where it tops out. I think he just has not been very good. If you look at some of the charting, he's been wildly off target. He's not doing a good job. Getting to a second read at any point and he's not doing a good job dealing with any sorts of pressure 4 man pass rush or when team style up blitzes. So it's got great arm though.

[Jamie]

Any. Any super flex for two quarterback leagues. You're getting a starter for a second round pick. That's. I would say he's the first round.

[Dan]

Mid first. Mid first. He said.

[Jamie]

I said mid second.

[Dan]

No mid first.

[Jamie]

Right, that's. Yeah. No, I wouldn't do it.

[Adam]

Okay, let me see. Where are my spot?

[Dan]

It's not an overpay. If Pennix ends up good then it's a great trade by you. So it's really just up to you if you believe in Pennix.

[Adam]

Okay, Spotify questions here. Thank you very much for the Apple podcast questions. Please feel free to leave us a five star review, help our show grow. If you're watching right now, please hit that like button. That would be awesome.

[Dan]

We've got the like button. Don't just hit it.

[Adam]

Oh yeah. Break it. I'm in first place. Would you trade Kamani Vidal for Debo Samuel?

[Dan]

No, not really. No. Yeah. I mean Daniels isn't on ir which is interesting. I thought that was an interesting decision today.

[Jamie]

But you missed your sell high window on by Dal. I'd wait for him to have another game.

[Dan]

Yeah. If Daniels comes back and you get Debo with Daniels for the fantasy playoffs.

[Jamie]

Yeah, but McLaren will be back by then.

[Dan]

Still as long as Debo's there. I mean, I'm sorry Jaden's there. I like Debo to put up some numbers with that bad defense too in the game script.

[Jamie]

But.

[Dan]

But it's a lot to ask for so I'm fine not doing it.

[Adam]

Starter sit Matthew Stafford or Baker Mayfield this week?

[Jamie]

Stafford.

[Dan]

Yeah, Stafford for sure.

[Adam]

Flacco rest of season.

[Jamie]

I like that. Dan's camera shift a little bit. We see more of the kitchen.

[Adam]

Yeah, I like it. Rest of season. No, that's okay. Rest of season. Who would you rather have Flacco, Knicks or Darnolds?

[Jamie]

Oh, we said this Tuesday I'm gonna stick with the Flacco. I.

[Dan]

Part of me wants to go Darnold because he's the best by far of those three at Real Football.

[Jamie]

It's 1 and 1A so if you want to go Darnold, I have no problem with it. It just like.

[Dan]

Flacco is just amazing. Flaco's amazing.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Dan]

Like. And their defense is so bad. It has to. I think it has to be Flacco based on their defense.

[Adam]

Should I trade Brian Thomas Jr. And Matthew golden for Jameson Williams, Christian Watson and Chimeri DK.

[Dan]

Say it again.

[Jamie]

Spider man meme.

[Adam]

Brian Thomas Jr. Matthew golden for Jameson Williams, Christian Watson and Chimari DK.

[Dan]

I probably wouldn't do that.

[Adam]

No.

[Jamie]

There's still the most upside is still with Brian Thomas. So if he can get himself right.

[Adam]

Yeah. Start three of these five. Abuka, A.J. brown, Garrett Wilson. It's gonna be tough to crack that top three. Zay Flowers, Marvin Harrison Jr. Say it again.

[Jamie]

I'm sorry. Yeah.

[Adam]

Abuka AJ Brown, Garrett Wilson, Zay Flowers, Marvin Harrison Jr Igbuka.

[Dan]

One for me.

[Jamie]

Yep.

[Dan]

Then comes a surprise. One that no one's going to agree with, but I'm going to put it out there. Zay Flowers. My two of those. Yep. I don't care. Save lives. My two amazing schedule.

[Adam]

No, this is for this week.

[Dan]

Oh, for this week. Sorry.

[Jamie]

Wilson and flowers.

[Dan]

Wilson's two. Oh, we just need three.

[Adam]

Yeah.

[Dan]

And then it's flowers or who?

[Adam]

AJ Brown or Marvin Harrison Jr. Oh, I'm gonna go brown.

[Dan]

I'm debating. Mh. Mhj. I mean he said this was the first game of his career where they actually game planned to get him the football and look at what he did.

[Jamie]

They hate him. They hate him.

[Dan]

He's so bad. He's so bad. And Jacob can actually run a like play action 5, 7 step drop and rip an intermediate digger out, which Murray can't do.

[Jamie]

It's just. It's still amazing to me that after Brissette plays well and they win the game and Gannon says nothing's changed. Oh, all of a sudden it's a 48 week injury. Like that was crazy.

[Dan]

It is weird. What do you think? So that he's obviously done there. I think after the season I would assume that. I don't know what the cap situation is, but they'll get out of it regardless. Is he going to start again somewhere in the NFL?

[Adam]

I did.

[Jamie]

Oh, for sure.

[Adam]

I did the gym.

[Dan]

I mean Jones got a starting job this off season after those six years of misery with the Giants. So like obviously he probably will get a chance. Kyler, there's just jobs that are open every year. But like What?

[Jamie]

Like what?

[Dan]

O.C. it's gonna have to take different. Like Petsig wasn't able to figure it out. Cliff kind of figured it out I guess for a little bit. But this version of Kyler, that's not running as much. I don't, I don't know what kind of scheme.

[Jamie]

I mean if I'M him. I'm get me to Minnesota, get me to San Francisco. Let me sit for a year. I know he's not right for those teams, but let me sit for a year and just get better some way somehow. It's. It's tried and true.

[Dan]

I guess I. I see what you're saying from the standpoint of you get the right coaching for him and he gets the best possible coaching, but those systems are based on inter intermediate breaking routes. Again, that's not his.

[Jamie]

I'm not saying he fits those systems. I just think he needs something. Telling him, someone telling him this is how you play the position. Yeah, it can work. It's better off for him in the long term as opposed to him going to be the Saints quarterback because Tyler didn't work and they have to hit the reset button or go into Miami as a bridge quarterback. Whoever's next or whatever the case may be.

[Dan]

It might be. That would be Kyler media Murray in the New York media.

[Adam]

God, that's Jameson Williams or Jacoby Myers. Jameson, I have some conflicting comments on my thoughts on the personal foul penalty and what the punishment should be. Most people have supported my stance in.

[Jamie]

All seriousness because they know if they say that, you'll read their questions.

[Adam]

No two people here say they disagree with me on Spotify. One person says he agrees with me. But I think most people feel like instead of changing the. The down and distance, that it should be. It should be 1st and 25. That's the compromise instead of what the the scenario I gave was. This happened on Monday night. George Pickens catches a ball, picks up a first down, then commits a personal foul penalty by taunting the cornerback. Yeah, and I. It is first and 10, 15 yards back. And I think it's ridiculous that if it had been second and one, it would have been second and 16.

[Dan]

Oh no, no.

[Adam]

So. So, so people are saying it should be first and 25 instead of first. I said that it should be second and one in that scenario. But you move everything back 15 yards and you just change the line to gain. So it doesn't have to be so punitive. But I think people do feel like it doesn't make sense for there to be such a harsh penalty if it's second down or third down, whatever compared if it's first down. But really you're not. You're just losing field position.

[Dan]

So I mean, I get what you guys are saying. I just don't put it at first and 25 just because somebody points a football at somebody.

[Adam]

Well, that's not the point. I mean, you're. You're getting. You're giving the 15 yard penalty for any other down and distance. Yeah, just not when you pick up a first down.

[Dan]

Yeah, I'm just. I can't get around on this stuff. I'm out. I'm out on these types of penalties. They ruin games and they're just like, just not into it.

[Adam]

Now you're having a completely different conversation.

[Jamie]

I know you're trying to not make the penalty as severe as it should be.

[Dan]

That's what I'm trying to do.

[Adam]

Me or him?

[Jamie]

You.

[Adam]

I'm trying to find consistency. Depending on the down.

[Jamie]

Don't be a.

[Adam]

No, but I'm just saying, player, not you.

[Dan]

Yeah, I think Johnny's right. We're just trying to azer stat penalties now. We got to get off of this.

[Adam]

No, I was saying it just doesn't make any sense that you don't lose any yardage in terms of down and distance when you pick up a first down, but you do in every other scenario. That's what all I'm saying. We need to find. We need to make that the same.

[Dan]

Okay.

[Adam]

All right. Back to YouTube to end the show.

[Dan]

Okay.

[Adam]

What are you so okay, you probably listening to too much My Morning Jacket.

[Dan]

What was wrong with that? Okay.

[Adam]

Hey, you just seem like. Okay, I don't know.

[Jamie]

What do you mean?

[Dan]

Give me a.

[Jamie]

Give me.

[Dan]

Be more specific on what you felt based on that.

[Adam]

That I felt like you were very negative in your tone and you've been dragging the show down the entire day.

[Dan]

What?

[Adam]

I'm just kidding.

[Dan]

Oh, my God.

[Adam]

Just kidding.

[Jamie]

Just kidding.

[Dan]

Better be William Huffman says Anita Flex, DJ QJ Addison or Henderson in full ppr. I'm going to go with Henderson.

[Adam]

Yeah, yeah, me too.

[Jamie]

I would go with, yeah, sure, Henderson.

[Dan]

Adam's gonna really. I. I know Adam. If I know Adam well enough as I do, and I do know him pretty well now, he's going to really regret that comment. And like, there may even be a text later on like, hey, man, I didn't mean anything by that. No, no, not that I'm taking it that way.

[Adam]

Austin wants to know if he should trade Chase Brown, AJ Brown, Jake Ferguson for Saquon Barkley and Tyler Warren.

[Dan]

Yes.

[Jamie]

Yeah.

[Dan]

Oh, yes.

[Adam]

I'm curious to see what happens with Barkley. Was it a one week thing, you know, against the worst defense in the world, or is he back to, you know, is he back to being a star?

[Dan]

That's fair. I think it'll probably end up somewhere in between the the biggest factor for me is just Landon Dickerson being back in that lineup for that them Jameson.

[Adam]

Williams or Kyle Manangai.

[Dan]

If it's PPR William I don't even know if I.

[Adam]

Believe that I'm going JMO I fear Jamie is a little too confident in.

[Dan]

Kyle Manangai I agree based on Swift.

[Jamie]

Oh I'm sorry Jameson Williams just inspired so much.

[Adam]

Well it's just it's the Washington secondary that and the Giants run.

[Dan]

Defense yeah yeah I know but he's.

[Jamie]

Not the lead back that we know.

[Adam]

Of DeAndre Swift DeAndre Swift was so good for three straight games before that.

[Jamie]

Injury I definitely one of those games so was Manangai yeah I definitely think.

[Adam]

It'S I definitely think it's a Swift problem I just don't know that it's good enough for Manangai all right I don't know what that is that green but I have a hard a burning question for Jamie I've seen him wear a Yankees hat and an Orioles hat who do you follow for mlb?

[Jamie]

Me oh it's a great mystery I've also worn a Durham Bulls hat I've worn trying to think what else Mets hats worn Marlins hats it's whatever teams my kids play for yeah you care.

[Adam]

If you were going to root for one team be the Marlins I guess.

[Jamie]

So I grew up a Mets fan because the Marlins were not in existence so my greatest baseball memory as a kid was the 86 world series staying up to watch game 6 was incredible.

[Dan]

Terrible how are you not a Mitts fan now then huh? How are you not still a Mets fan then?

[Jamie]

I think just because the Marlins came here when I was still in high school so okay yeah rooting for the.

[Adam]

Local team Adam and Dan do you want Brian Dable back next year? No I don't care I just say like he obviously has a pretty good thing going here with Jackson Dart so I think for darts interests might help.

[Dan]

To retain Dart should be if dart's the real deal he should be good with the good offensive coordinator I'm not saying that's a guarantee but who would.

[Adam]

You guys start Dart or Stafford Stafford.

[Dan]

Stafford yeah weather I'm not high on this Bears Giants game being high scoring.

[Adam]

As everyone else is Odunze or AJ Brown.

[Dan]

Oh Dunesay and someone said Dan wasn't alive in 86 so he doesn't know what you're talking about I know about the Mets I was not alive that's correct but I I have seen the video the DVDs well actually, VHS videos.

[Adam]

All right, let's finish with this. Jaylen Warren. Devonte Smith or Rashad White? Ppr. Oh, I'm gonna go Jaylen Warren.

[Dan]

I really like Warren, but kind of want to go. I'll go Warren. I think it's best. Jamie.

[Jamie]

I'm guessing it's the. The rankings would be myself, Dave, and Heath. And I know who I have ranked higher, which would be Warren.

[Adam]

Oh, all right, let's just go with Warren then.

[Jamie]

All right.

[Dan]

Okay.

[Adam]

I think that's it. Looking for other stuff? Yeah, we're good. Thank you, everybody, for watching and listening. And, Dan, who did the 86 Mets beat in the World Series?

[Dan]

I know that answer, but I'm gonna have you explain it for me.

[Adam]

Famously, they beat the Red Sox, who were so close to ending their. Yeah, that was the Buckner. Yeah.

[Jamie]

Yeah.
