[B]

Welcome in.

[C]

The fantasy footballers podcast. Mike the fantasy hitman, right? Jason Moore. I'm Andy Holloway. Welcome in one and all. Wednesday, December 31st. It's New Year's Eve.

[A]

Oh, man. Tomorrow is a great day because it's next year and I can't wait for next year.

[B]

Oh, you got big plans.

[A]

Well, I just want it to be next year.

[C]

He's turning. I think it's a symbolic turning the page on fantasy season.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And then winning the championship while Mike won the championship this year. So starting tomorrow. I don't know how.

[B]

You said it was like I won the one.

[A]

Yeah, well, deal with it.

[C]

Yeah, I mean, you won.

[B]

This is a show of Jason. We had three. The three pillars of the show. What are the three pillars of the show, Jason?

[C]

Great production quality.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, check that. We got that.

[C]

Entertainment.

[B]

I think we got that.

[C]

Oh, no.

[A]

This is where the accuracy.

[B]

Yeah, yeah. All right.

[C]

He feels like you were inaccurate.

[A]

I was not.

[B]

I don't have to check my emotions.

[A]

I was not inaccurate with what I said. Simply not saying ever.

[B]

Where's my scepter?

[C]

That thing was heavy. That was a real ruby.

[A]

Real scepter.

[B]

The whoever built like the. The handle of the center. They did not count. The integrity of that structure would be out with one swing.

[C]

It is locked back in the vault with Brooks's eggs.

[B]

Okay. Yeah. Thanks for letting me borrow that, Brooksie.

[C]

We haven't. Brooks hasn't been in the office for a while. He must have been spending most of that time on his yacht.

[B]

Yeah, he's actually got one of those permanent airplanes.

[A]

Lives up there, refuels in.

[B]

The air just in case.

[A]

You can never be too safe, those things.

[C]

Yeah, that'd be neat. We've got a week 18 show. This is technically a megalodon of sorts, but we can't really like it's week 18, so it doesn't get the full growl.

[B]

You know what I mean?

[C]

It's like a backup growl.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Or like a third string growl.

[A]

This is the cat, the kitty cat of. This is a large cat.

[B]

Me back up. It's the backup growl. Not unlike all the backup players that you will be playing in week 18.

[C]

That's what it's the Tanner McKee of growls is all I'm saying. But we're here and we're going to jump in. We've got backup options on the show. We've got some news. We've got the fantasy forecast. We do have the much anticipated Wheel of Shame. Sure, Mike is acting immune to it, but when we get done with you, we'll see how you feel. Foot clan title t shirt, shopballers.com head over there, trophies, rings, belts. Head over to fantasychamps.com and swag out. I, you know, I am. Did I mention on the show.

[B]

I think you did.

[C]

That might have been the footcast. How I had won a championship.

[B]

You went to sleep a winner.

[C]

I went to sleep so far ahead with Puka Nakua left that I did say on this show I had won a title with Malik Willis and accuracy is a pillar of this show.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So I'd like to. When basically what happened was yesterday. Yesterday in the middle of the day and I didn't pay attention to that league. You had won during the Monday night game. I didn't pay attention because I had Puka and a huge lead. And anyways, it was a league for John. It was a league for charity. And I wake up the next day and I was in the championship against Mike Clay, Mortal Enemy at ESPN Fantasy Podcast. But don't worry, we also field. We don't like you either. We don't like you either, old curly haired field Yates. But I went to bed thinking I'm a champion. Woke up and apparently Bijan outscored Puka by like a thousand and I lost by like a couple points. And so, you know, my charity got the shaft. That's all I'm saying.

[A]

All we're saying is Mike Clay, congratulations, shopballers.com, our Foot Clan title shirts are there.

[C]

That's what we.

[A]

So you are the champ. You can dawn.

[C]

That's what we're saying. This might as well be the nickname of week 18.

[A]

Backup options presented by Progressive Insurance.

[C]

Well, real backup options will be taking the field in week 18. So we've comprised a small list to share with you of the sneaky ads and starts that may end up helping you out this week. A lot of starters are going to sit down. We found out this morning the Eagles are going to sit their starters. Now you're going to have players that maybe play a limited amount of snaps, limited playing time. And so you should, you should pay attention to a handful of these names.

[A]

Play Tank Bigsby.

[B]

Yeah, that's.

[C]

Yeah. No, I mean this is a good start. Tank Bigsby of the Philadelphia Eagles. Also you may see some Ty Johnson, Ray Davis in Buffalo. You may see Kamani Vidal or.

[A]

Oh no, even better. Jarrett Patterson.

[B]

Yeah, no, Jake and Haskins.

[A]

Oh man.

[B]

Jarrett Patterson and Hassan Haskins are the OG Nasty boys. Yeah, but we same roster.

[A]

We won a title on the legs of Jarrett Patterson once upon a time and you can do it too.

[B]

We did win a championship with Haskins in the lineup.

[A]

Yes. He didn't do. He did not assist much.

[B]

He didn't chip in very much.

[C]

Packers are locked into the seven seats. Some Malik Willis, Emmanuel Wilson, both seem to be in play this week. We don't know for sure about Jordan Love, but that seems the most likely situation. Josh Jacobs as well. Why play him? Dealing with the knee swelling. Emmanuel Wilson, Chris Brooks and then there's some injury things and we already know that Dallas is, you know, crafty old.

[A]

Dak is going to start.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh great news. If you got Dak now. I'm not sure they're not going to say what their plans are for how much. I mean this is. You could see him getting like the start for consecutive starts or something and then just not playing. They bring in Joe Milton. You have no idea. So it's like if you had Dak, are you comfortable putting him in your lineup?

[C]

Not at all. Not even a little bit? No. Yeah, but Javante Williams and Breeze hall also got banged up last week and are in situations where they're not needed that much. So Malik Davis for Dallas and Isaiah Davis. The Davis's could be in play as well. And then Jason, you were mentioning Jake Tonjas. He is on the most dropped list this week.

[A]

But still, I mean there's not a guarantee that George Kittle plays Honestly, I put it, I see that George Kittle has like projections on all the platforms and I was really surprised by that that he would have a projection already.

[B]

I feel like they had said last week that more than likely he'll be available next week. So I think George will play.

[A]

But seeing him as one of the most dropped guys, I'm like, if you had him or need him, I would still hold him.

[C]

Yeah, that's, that is a big game. That's one that you can feel confident.

[B]

With all the players in as far as motivation goes. Yep.

[C]

And there are some of those this week that was backup options sponsored by Progressive Insurance. Quote Today at progressive.com we'll move into news.

[A]

News and notes from around the league presented by Progressive Insurance.

[C]

Well, I said it already. The Eagles are expected to rest Jalen Hurts and most of the starters. The original line on the game for Monday was Philly minus seven and a half. Now it's Philly minus three and a half against Washington. Washington, well, they're already on their third season.

[A]

You're joking that they're still.

[B]

But when the team's like a. We're, we're sitting down our starters, we're still projected to buy to win by more than a field goal.

[C]

I mean it will be second string versus third string. Commanders are still one further behind on the strings. Tanner McKee will start for the Eagles. Stefan Diggs, we found out more. It's not good. He faces felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault charges.

[A]

They are. There are reports that he's trying to settle this out of court. Tbd.

[C]

I read the police report. He better settle it out of court for his. I mean this is bad.

[B]

It's not looking good.

[C]

It's not good. No, no. But this is also. Yeah. I mean it's tough with a player like Stefan Diggs. When there's enough. There's enough news over enough years around a player. It's hard to give them the benefit of the doubt.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So we'll see what happens.

[A]

He is like eight receptions away from.

[B]

A lot of money and some yards away from.

[C]

If I was, if I was New England, I'd play him, give him seven catches and take him out.

[B]

Yeah, I think that's what I would. I think you're right. The punishment for this don't play might be like you. Nope. You don't get that money, you won't even get a chance.

[C]

And then we also one thing that we may enjoy this weekend is getting to see a few youngsters get out there and take snaps. I. We won't see Caleb Johnson because they're in a must win game. But Jaden Blue, we'll get to see rookie running back Jaden Blue. Yeah, for, for the Cowboys. So anybody that, anybody that has had limited snaps that you'd love to get to see out there, I'll be keeping my eyes on some of those players like this, like Jaden Blue and others. Let them, let them get some snaps, get opportunities. I mean, seeing Tank Bigsby run with the ones will be fun.

[A]

That one is like the only positive. Like, hey, here's someone that I think you can play who is a talented player on a team that is favored against a good matchup. It's like across the board, like, okay, that's the, that's the pickup at play this week.

[C]

And that wasn't, that wasn't meant to be some like, blind shot at Caleb Johnson. It was just. I was thinking through the rookies that haven't had a lot of snapshots and.

[B]

I was thinking you didn't mean it, but you did it.

[A]

No, I know, I know what you're saying.

[C]

I just meant like, I'm sorry, I'm playing through. Who didn't. We didn't get to watch that. We were excited about before the season. It's not like Caleb played and failed. Caleb just didn't play, you know, not when Kenny Gainwell is there. That was news and notes sponsored by Progressive Insurance.

And here we go. The Fantasy Forecast Week 18.

[A]

Fantasy forecast presented by Prize picks.

[C]

Well, big game. Carolina, Tampa Bay for the division.

[B]

Maybe prob.

[C]

Maybe. Yeah. Tampa Bay minus two and a half over under 43 and a half.

[A]

We've been waiting for this game for weeks, but we might wait no longer. Maybe.

[C]

Maybe it's. Yeah. The situation is basically if Tampa wins, but then Atlantis beats the Saints, Tampa's win will be meaningless, which is just. Are those games at the same time?

[B]

No.

[A]

No.

[B]

So this one, they're Saturday.

[A]

Yeah. This one is Saturday. The good news is, is that when this game is being played, it will be being played for all the marbles, even though it might not be.

[C]

Yeah, they may have to take the marbles back.

[A]

Motivation will be there.

[C]

Tristan worst dealing with a toe injury might not play again. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are playing terribly. The feel good players in this game probably, you know, Tetrah McMillan, Bucky Irving, are we comfortable there?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Mike Evans.

[B]

It was a disaster for Tet last week. Oh, I'm sorry. Tedro McMillan. But last time he played against Tampa Bay, 6 for 73 with a score. Tampa Bay's defense is not what they played Seattle last week. I'm trying to remember at the top of my head it wasn't Seattle who was, who did they play?

[C]

They got beat by Miami.

[B]

I'm talking about Carolina.

[C]

Oh, I thought you said Tampa Bay.

[A]

You definitely said Tampa Bay.

[B]

Oh man, it's week 18. I'm already done.

[A]

I'm champ.

[B]

Say Ted Roll.

[A]

We're here for the people.

[B]

But Ted Roll.

[C]

They played some guys last week and probably didn't play good.

[B]

McMillan played Seattle last week. Seattle has a top tier defense. Two weeks ago against Tampa, that's when McMillan was 6 for 73. So I'm comfortable playing him.

[C]

He is the wide receiver. 16 on the year. How do you feel about Tetaro McMillan's rookie season? He looks like.

[A]

I think it's a very, very good NFL rookie season.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

That might be a little disappointing for fantasy purposes in the sense of maybe where you drafted him and what we've seen over the last several years of just incredible year one breakout sensations and you know, he didn't Brian Thomas Jr. Malik neighbors. So a little disappointing. But you're talking about a guy who's, you know, got a good chance to go 1000 yards, plenty of touchdowns, appears to be the dominant one for their team. So I'm very bullish on Tetaroa for the future.

[C]

I'm less bullish just on the quarterback front. I don't know.

[A]

Sure.

[C]

I don't think Bryce Young can supply what you need to be a perennial top 10 guy. But consistency will be there, I think in the future.

[B]

It's like he, he's the archetype of player. Like me and Kyle have talked about this of he kind of like Drake, London and London. London's rookie year was 866 and 4. His sophomore year was 905 and 2 and then bang. So I tearoa McMillan might start a little slow in the NFL, but I think he's going to be a student.

[C]

Okay. And then Rico Dowdle didn't practice on Tuesday. Canal says he'll be fine. He only needs seven yards for a.

[B]

Million dollars and a tutty for 250k.

[C]

And they're going for the, the playoffs here.

[A]

If they get on the goal line and they give it to Chuba. Oh, I don't, I don't think they can do that. You know what I mean?

[B]

Like, the only way they can do that is if there is a camera locked on Rico. And I just need to see him and he's just like 2 inches from the Canalis's face staring at him.

[A]

But I will say that that is one of those. I mean, it's only once they're on the goal line, but I would genuinely believe that if they're on the goal line this week, they're practicing with like Rico on that goal line package.

[B]

It should be Rico regardless, right?

[A]

Yeah. It's not one of those where they're forcing something dumb to hit that bonus. But that bonus matters.

[C]

Don't feel good about Baker. Don't feel good about Abuka.

[B]

Nope.

[C]

The Mecca Abuka story. He's accumulated 906 incomplete air yards, the second most in the league. So the targets. We've saw it for weeks and weeks now. The targets aren't even there. I don't even. I honestly don't know how to think about him moving into the future. I need time to deal with this.

[A]

Very tough. And now that Jalen McMillan has come back, he's running basically, he's splitting with McMillan and. But five targets last week. I don't. I mean, we're not playing a Buka, but you've asked the question in the off season of like, who is better for next year, Jameson Williams or Mecca Buka? And I keep going back and forth.

[C]

Well, this week I would play Godwin Evans McMillan ahead of him.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So that's the. That's the depressing truth right now. The Seahawks are 13 and three, the 49ers 12 and four. Another Saturday game here, eight Eastern. Seattle minus one and a half over, under 49 and a half. That line. I saw it yesterday in the middle of the day. It was like half a point. I'm considering this one like a heads up. A pure heads up. I like San Francisco to win this game. They're playing so well.

[B]

This one's fun of. It is a. I think this is a huge test for San Francisco in terms of can you win? Can you beat a true. Like a real playoff team? Seattle has a chance to win the Super Bowl. Can you beat them with just your offense? Because that San Francisco is offensive firepower and Seattle is more. We are the. The rock. The defense that you just can't score on us. So it will be fascinating to watch how you know, a little mini preview of what San Francisco should expect in the playoffs.

[A]

And we've. We've mentioned this in the past, but if you, if you didn't hear it then or aren't aware, you know the super bowl is played this year in San Francisco. If they get the number one seed, they finish the season with two home games wild followed by every playoff game all the way to the super bowl is at home. They're not leaving town. So this is a huge game for both teams. Obviously the, the bi week in play for both parties and. But the home team usually gets it.

[C]

All right, the JSN Christian McCaffrey situation. I can't imagine the psychological state Mike would be in if this was a report from one week ago. Oh, where Christian McCaffrey did not practice due to back stiffness. That's what Shanahan said. Didn't practice on the Tuesday walk through.

[A]

Backs a little stiff from carrying Mike and all those leagues.

[B]

He carried all of us.

[C]

Jason, they were Monday night, right? No, they weren't.

[B]

No, no, they were Sunday night.

[C]

They were Sunday night. Yeah.

[B]

I think he'll be fine.

[C]

I do.

[B]

But the matchup does stink.

[C]

We talked about Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet right now at 10.1 fantasy points per game each. Charbonnet had the big week last week. Walker two weeks ago. Flip a coin and cry to your mama. I mean, what do you do here? Which one do you start? I mean, I'd probably guess. I guess I'd go with the touchdown chance. I don't know if you had to start one.

[B]

I don't either. I mean the.

[A]

I had to start when I would start Kenneth Walker because I think he's just better.

[B]

20 opportunities for charbs last week. Oh, Walker's at 17. Oh, man.

[C]

I think you're going to have to throw the ball more in this one. They're going to get scored on a little bit. I don't know what that means for those running backs, but it means that maybe those opportunities aren't going to be at 37. Brock Purdy's been on fire. I. The matchup sucks, but they're at home and the game matters, so I imagine.

[B]

You'Re playing him playing so well.

[C]

John Jennings back into the end zone. Ricky Pierce hall has been limited and banged up. I probably prefer Jennings to Pierce. All.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. Jennings over Pierce. He's been, he has been Brock's main target in the games where they've, they've played together. I was seeing this, this stat here from Sam Darnold in the last eight games. I saw this on Twitter from Janet Eckhart. Nine touchdowns, nine interceptions, 220 yards a game. 29th of 33rd in PFF grade 23rd in adjusted EPA has been not playing very good football. Seven and one, seven and one of those.

[B]

That's how good the defense.

[A]

Yeah, that defense is doing some lifting.

[C]

Yeah, no question. George Kittle I do agree with Mike. I think he will definitely be out there.

[B]

If he plays, I'm playing him.

[C]

It's too big of a game and he was really pushing to play last week and there you go. So we'll take a break and talk Sunday games. This episode is supported by Prize Picks.

Vegas line is Atlanta minus 3 and a half over under 43 and a half. So Atlanta is favored, which would make Tampa Bay very sad.

[B]

The a very funny part of this matchup is they're Atlanta can spoil a division rivals chances and everything. And yet you would think, well, no, you want your pick to be better. They don't have their pick.

[C]

No.

[B]

So.

[C]

No, that's true.

[B]

So if I'm Atlanta, they just. I know, look, your second and third, it's one spot, maybe one spot lower, whatever. If I'm Atlanta, I am trying everything I have in my team to reach the day for Tampa Bay.

[C]

You would ruin the day for Tampa Bay and for the Rams with the.

[B]

Yes.

[C]

Yeah. And your coach, your coach has been under fire. It seems like they played really hard for him last week. Raheem Morris wants to, you know, get to 8 and 9 here. The Saints have won four in a row. They currently have the eighth overall pick. The division right now is sitting 8 and 8, 7 and 9, 7 and 9, 6 and 10. And so what's wild is it's like Atlanta can win this game. They can get to 8 and 9, which would be tied with Tampa at 8 and 9. If Tampa beat Carolina, which would put them at 8 and 9. Oh, so Atlanta would be tied.

[B]

Disgusting.

[C]

But no chance to win the division.

[B]

Which is just disgusting.

[C]

But like, it's very possible that all three teams are 8, 9 at the top of this division. And Carolina sneaks through. Bijan is officially indestructible.

[A]

Yeah, Jason pronounced it not once on an injury report.

[C]

Never missed a practice all year long. I mean, I guess you got one more game.

[A]

No, not happening this year.

[C]

Chris Olave also indestructible this year, which is an incredible accomplishment for him.

[A]

I would not have predicted that one so boldly.

[C]

No, he's been. He's been a quiet assassin when it comes to fantasy football teams. You know, picking him up, playing him, it's never seemed very. It's not like the sexy performances from Jamar Chase or something but. But it's just so in the last couple.

[A]

Olave on the course of the season.

[B]

Is one of tonight.

[A]

Yeah, he is one of the best picks in fantasy as far as ADP versus points per game where you finish. I mean Olave has been super helpful.

[C]

In the maybe start category. How do you feel about Tyler Shock, Drake London, Kyle Pitts, Juwan Johnson, Tyler Schuck is.

[B]

If you've been with him, I have no problem. Juanson with Vale not there, he will be the number two target and estimate. So the Falcons over the last six weeks have been tougher against fantasy running backs. But Audric estimate will get the work. I think last week confirmed what we, what the press conference said where Taysom Hill was talking, saying that was all just for me in front of the home crowd. And now they're going to go back and say our best route forward is. Let's find out what Audric estimate has.

[C]

Do you believe Kirk Cousins will be a starting quarterback in Week 1 next year for somebody?

[B]

No, I think, I think he's starting for Atlanta. I don't know that Pennix will be ready.

[C]

Cleveland's 4 and 12 to take on the 6 and 10 Cincinnati Bengals. Cincinnati minus 7 and a half. The overrunners 44 and a half. The last couple of weeks for Cincy has been to put on display what they knew they could do. But Joe Burrow didn't get a chance to do.

[B]

Joe Burrow is playing fantastic. It's a, it's a huge, huge bummer that he missed so much of the season with the injury because he's just dealing right now.

[C]

He's got the chance to play Miami and Arizona the last two weeks. So that has helped significantly because if you remember three weeks ago, he got straight up shut out by ball field.

[B]

Yeah. Yes.

[C]

But the last one, this one's the.

[A]

Browns who have such a good defense. You're not worried at all?

[B]

No, I'm not.

[C]

Well, this is your last chance, right, for Miles Garrett to get the record. Break the record.

[A]

Break the record. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah, he could break the record. And Joe Burrow can be awesome.

[C]

Yeah, I think I'd temper my ceiling with Joe Burrow this week.

[A]

I mean, you saw the, in a must win game for the Steelers last week. The Browns just shut them down.

[C]

Sure.

[B]

But the watching that game, my honest Belief is the Steelers completely shut themselves down. They for whatever reason in Aaron Rodgers, they decide. They decided no, we're going to win with Aaron Rodgers instead of our running backs. Who and I mean like this is fantasy nerd stuff right where we are analyzing the games. But when I look at a team, the Browns defense over the last six weeks, just fantasy points against quarterback, the seventh worst matchup though against wide receiver, the third worst matchup and running backs is at 28. I'm going to run the ball like.

[C]

Well, it's playing them. It's just the divisional matchup situation.

[B]

Like I'm talking for the Steelers of their game plan last year.

[C]

Oh no, I know. But like in the world these two teams played in week one, the Bengals scored 17 points in that game. And then the divisional games with Burrow back, have they all been rough? They've been fairly rough. I mean, did he play week 11 though? When did he come back?

[B]

Week 13.

[C]

Okay, so in week 13 he came back against Baltimore. They did score 32 in that game. Then they lost 24. Zero. Those were the only two since he came back. So yeah, I'm not saying he's a bad play. I'm just saying I don't think he's going to be a top five quarterback this week.

[A]

You're certainly starting him. If he's gotten you this far over the last couple of weeks, you're just going to keep riding it and just adjust expectations from Miami Arizona defenses.

[C]

Exactly. Harold Fannin, if he plays you play him. And you know, if you need to get dirty. Chador Sanders against Cincinnati's defense, maybe you could get dirty there.

[A]

Harold Fannin, man, he's been so good on an inept offense. He's the tight end four on the season in his rookie year, which is.

[B]

Awesome for the future. Yeah, I mean he's listed as questionable right now. He was highly questionable last week. Got knocked out.

[C]

Is he on the groin index?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Oh, he's got to be.

[A]

Oh, for sure.

[B]

Groinindex.com it sees everyone's groins.

[C]

He is on there in front of his quote is ah, my groin.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

Also Mason Tipton is on there. Ah, my groin. But also Cody White is on there who also said, ah, my groin.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

Not ack.

[B]

No, they're very different things.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Only three groins on the groin index right now. But yeah, I feel confident with Chase Brown, Jamar Chase, Joe Burrow, T. Higgins, Harold Fannin and then I'm probably not messing around anymore. The green baby.

[A]

I do think Dylan Sampson. Dylan, I Mean if you've got one of those situations where you had Saquon and now you can't play Saquon. I mean obviously pick up Tank Bigsby, but if you can't. Dylan Sampson is widely available. He had 14 opportunities last week and it's a good matchup this. He didn't do well last week against the Steelers. But against the Bengals maybe you could.

[C]

Green Bay packers nine six and one against Minnesota at eight and eight. The Minnesota minus eight and it's Minnesota minus six and a half over under 36 and a half. All right. We get to play this one, huh? Minnesota will have Brosmer most likely. That pretty much ends your sentence. I think Justin Jefferson is the biggest bust in fantasy this year. I think relative to draft position he is the worst pick you could have made.

[A]

And you started him over and over and over thinking he's Justin Jefferson and they'll find a way and it has not worked. It wasn't like an injured guy who you had to pivot off of and you lost that draft pick. He's hurt you more.

[B]

I don't disagree. I just hate it because it's like you have. You have JJ McCarthy devastating or I'm sorry Justin Jefferson devastating pick. Brian Thomas Jr. Was in the second round. I blame Brian Thomas Jr. For the most of his ineptitude this year. Like Trevor Lawrence. We dunk on him all the time. But Trevor Lawrence in the last month and a half two months is playing awesome and Brian Thomas Jr. Is still not getting it done. All of Jefferson is related to his quarterbacks. Yeah. We get to still still a bust of a pick. Devastating.

[C]

You'll get to officially vote for the Pupius pants award next week on the footies. But Minnesota's one four in a row with Brosmer in tow. Green Bay have lost three in a row. They're locked into the number seven seed. We'll see if they play Chicago for sure in this game.

[B]

Do you I think Josh Jacobs is the big question. I guess Jacobs play I I think he does not. I don't you're they're locked into the seventh seed.

[A]

They should not. Yeah I mean there's a reason Minnesota with Brosmer is a 6 1/2 point favorite.

[B]

I wouldn't the packers don't freaked out.

[A]

Man have really anything to play for here so I mean I don't think I'd start Josh Jacobs if he's active.

[B]

Oh man. Are you seeing this so Matthew Golden Kyle's giving us this stat. Matthew golden first round wide receiver pick one of Eight first round rookies over the last decade without a touchdown. This list is Kevin, we.

[C]

Buckle up.

[B]

Kevin White.

[A]

Bust.

[B]

Laquan Treadwell.

[A]

Bust.

[B]

Josh Dachshund.

[A]

Bust.

[B]

Mike Williams.

[A]

Not a bust.

[B]

John Ross. Corey Davis. Took five years. Took five years. We finally got one out of him. Kadarius. Tony Bust. That's the only one. Stat. But.

[A]

But also everything else that you see from him has been bad.

[B]

That's a. That's a bummer.

[C]

This was the first receiver they took in over two decades in the first round. Is that right? And I know the packers fans are a combination of baffled and infuriated by the situation because, you know, you had injuries to Tucker Kraft in the middle of the season. Now you had an injury to Matthew golden as well that knocked him out of some time. But like they don't understand the utilization and then now they're frustrated with the production and it all works together for bad. And he joined some terrible company there.

[B]

Green Bay. Your gm. Give a. Give us a call. Give us a call. When you're considering drafting a wide receiver in the first, we'll let you know.

[A]

We can help you.

[C]

Are you talking about us individually?

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

You didn't mean Arizona?

[B]

No, no, no, no.

[C]

We would take any.

[B]

No, that's not us. Us, the fantasy footballers. And we'll let you know if you should take that guy in the first.

[C]

Malik Willis, I think would be a really interesting start. Not because it's a good matchup, but because he has a rushing floor. He was the running game for this team last week and you know, he played 83% of snaps and had 60 rushing yards.

[A]

Yeah, the rushing baseline I think gives him an okay floor, but my goodness, I can't imagine him having multiple touchdowns in this game.

[B]

This is the defense that gave Detroit Lions questions about is Jared Goff the.

[A]

Future of this team? On the course of the season, the vikings go up 7.8 fantasy points to quarterbacks. They're the toughest. They're at home.

[B]

That's impossible.

[A]

I know that's. Yeah, it's.

[C]

They took over the spot from Houston, huh?

[A]

Yeah, they've been. Well, that's because in the last six weeks. They've given up five in six weeks.

[B]

Oh, wait. McCarthy. Kevin O' Connell from the Vikings said McCarthy the is progressing. The swelling has come down. The status for J.J. mcCarthy will be determined. So I guess he's not ruled out yet this game. If JJ McCarthy plays. Honestly, I would feel much better about.

[A]

Jefferson regardless of which quarterback is there. If they get to the fourth quarter and Justin Jefferson doesn't have 53 yards. They are going to throw it to him on every single play. They're going to go for it on fourth down and throw it to Justin J. Wilson. They're getting him 53 yards.

[C]

That's a good point. Dallas 7, 8 and 1, taking on the Giants 3 and 13. Dallas minus three and a half right now, over, under 51 and a half. I don't feel good about Dak. With the news and report from Jerry Jones about. We don't know how long we'll play him. Javante Williams got banged up. I don't feel good about him.

[B]

No.

[C]

If I don't have Dak, I don't feel good about CD And Pickens.

[B]

Agreed.

[C]

And that makes that.

[A]

How dare you not believe in Joe Milton the third?

[C]

I mean, there's that. He will throw it very hard.

[B]

He is Bazooka Joe.

[C]

He will throw the ball very hard. I mean, I'm not saying you can't play those guys. I can't imagine benching them under the ambiguity of Dak. I just don't feel very amazing.

[B]

What was. I didn't see the Jerry Jones quote. What exactly did he say about Dak?

[A]

He basically said he's going to start, but, you know, I'm not going to say what the plan is for him.

[C]

Okay, we're going to start Dak. How we use Dakota, comma. Let's make that part of the game plan that we won't talk about.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

That's a direct quote.

[B]

I'm saying that to me, if you're like, hey, we're going to take Dak out. We're going to protect him. Why would you not do that with, like, CD Lamb? Yeah, you might if you're the Dallas Cowboys.

[A]

I'm more confident in George Pickens than CD Lamb for this game.

[B]

That. Oh, that stinks.

[C]

You know, Wanda Robinson is the shortest receiver in the history of the National Football League to have a thousand yards.

[A]

I did see that.

[C]

He just. He just surpassed the Wes Welker record.

[A]

Wondale's had a pretty good season, and he's a good player. He hasn't got enough credit for what he's done this year. I mean, he hasn't been very consistent at it, but with the quarterback play is, you know, thousand yards proud of him. And he's. It's a good matchup for him this week. I mean, obviously, Dallas, he's like, you're.

[C]

In you and Jeremy's height.

[A]

How dare you? How right, dare you.

[C]

Right? You guys are like the Same like if you're running around, you would look the same.

[A]

No, no. How dare you.

[C]

Good point.

[A]

Al Wandale and Jeremy, they can, they can go.

[C]

You're more Isabella.

[A]

Thank you.

[C]

He's five, nine.

[A]

Yeah. Way taller.

[C]

Yeah. Jake Ferguson hasn't hit 10 fantasy points since week seven. Don't mess around there, but we'll see. You know, it'd be nice to see Jackson Dart finish the season on a high note. I'd feel okay about him this week.

[B]

Against Dallas defense, I'd play Dart.

[C]

Who just dumped Trayvon Diggs? Did you, did you see the story around that and what happened?

[B]

I just saw that.

[A]

Like a lawyer or something.

[C]

Well, I don't, I don't know what he's done since then. I know the story was basically he requested additional time I think in Washington because he has family there after their game and the team said, no, we want you to come back to Dallas with us. And he's like, no, no, I don't. I'm just going to be flying right back to Washington. I don't want to do that. And then the team's like, you do whatever you want, man. See ya.

[B]

Wow.

[C]

Yeah. So mind you, this is the worst passing defense in the history of football. And Trayvon Diggs, I believe, I believe the stat I saw is opposing quarterbacks have a perfect 153.8 or 158.3 passer rating when targeting Trayvon Diggs perfect record. He made 70 something million dollars basically on interceptions. Even that season when he was dominating with the interceptions, he was taking a lot of chances to get them right. And so the interception totals, really, it's kind of like the sack story versus the pressure. Sometimes it's like, you know, some, some of these guys, they're sack masters but they can't stop the run game or things like that. He was a bit of an illusion. Okay. 156.3 passer rating. So it's not perfect.

[A]

It's pretty good.

[C]

Close to perfect. Yeah.

[A]

Tyrone Tracy, good play. He's been really good. He's been really good. Here's a cool stat from underdog. Tyrone Tracy is the only player from the 2024 last year's draft class to put up 800 yards from scrimmage this season. He was the 45th skill position player taking the last year's draft class. Last year's draft class. That was great for last year. I mean you had three. Was it three wide receiver ones? Yeah, because it was lad Brian Thomas Jr. Malik neighbors. I mean it was A really good draft class. They did not have a great sophomore season.

[C]

Wow. No, no. And then you even had like standouts like Bucky Irving, who's basically been invisible this year. Tennessee's 3 and 13 taken on the 12 and 4. Jacksonville Jaguars. I've been told to ask you who led the Titans in target share this year?

[A]

Who led the Titans in target share?

[C]

Now, I don't see the answer on here, so hopefully Kyle is listening and can reveal it.

[B]

Okay, so we're saying early.

[A]

It would have been Ridley.

[C]

Oh, I haven't.

[A]

Then he went away.

[B]

Then you had IO man who had a couple things.

[C]

Yep.

[B]

And then Okonkwo is doing his normal late season, late season surge.

[A]

Gunner Helm was involved for a stretch.

[B]

I mean, I hope.

[C]

Take your shot.

[A]

I'm going to say Tim radk.

[C]

He is fourth.

[A]

Perfect.

[B]

Then I am going to say Okonkwo.

[C]

He's third.

[B]

Oh, gosh darn it.

[A]

I'm changing to Ridley.

[C]

Ridley second.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

Number one, Ellic. IO Manor.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

All right.

[C]

17% target share in the offense. Epic. IO Manor. Yep. Jacksonville -12 and a half over under 47 and a half. A win clinches the South. They need the win. They've won seven in a row. They'll get the win. They're at home and they're facing Tennessee, who has been putting up more of a fight. Tony Pollard's been better. Cam Ward's been better. Shout out to Chimray DK for doing literally the most you can do on this offense, basically, and in the special teams. So, yeah, I think there's a lot to be excited for there.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

For the future. What order would you put the Jaguars wide receivers as far as starts this week?

[C]

Well, I got it wrong last week. I thought Jacoby Myers would be able to step up and it was Parker Washington again. I'd probably just do the same order I did last week. I'd probably go Jacoby Parker. Btj.

[A]

Man, I feel like I'm putting Parker Washington number one. He's just been so daggum good so often, especially since their bye week when they came out and they've really through this stretch, like, you know, they've won seven games in a row. His last eight games, Parker Washington's on pace for 1100 yards, 76 receptions. He's been kind of the wide receiver one for them.

[C]

It's crazy. I feel like he's the. He's the situation where if you look at him too closely and you trust him too much, that's when you'll be let down. But I'm just so, so interested in what the offseason looks like for Jacksonville's offense, and it might depend a little bit on how far they go in the playoffs. BTJ has the talent where. Look, if you have a couple games in the playoffs where BTJ has big games, all of a sudden that alpha is more secure and they try to get it back into it. But Tony Pollard, he needs 66 rushing yards for $250,000. Tough matchup to get much else to play for.

[B]

Yeah, but I bet they try and get it for him.

[A]

Yeah, he's. It is definitely one of those situations where you're. You don't need the win. Those are the type of teams where those financial bonuses matter. So they'll definitely give him the work required to get there, but he'll have to be special against Jacksonville.

[C]

Indianapolis at 88 taking on the Houston Texans at 11 and 5. If Houston wins and Jacksonville loses the aforementioned game, Houston would win the AFC South. After an Owen 3 start to the season, they can end up as high as the number three seed and as low as number seven. But they're likely the five seed in this one. They've won eight games in a row. Their defense is impenetrable. I don't think I've used that word before to describe a defense, but it seems right.

[B]

Houston, no. They give up 12 points to the quarterback.

[C]

That's true, they do. Indianapolis will be starting Riley Leonard to get a look at him before the season ends. 8 and 8 Indianapolis.

[B]

There is a. There is a part of me that wants to see Riley Leonard come out against the Houston Texans and just dominate.

[A]

Just because of Philip Rivers.

[B]

Because of the. You got pushed aside for Philip Rivers. You had your. Your chance was there and they were like, nope, we're not going to give it to you.

[A]

Oh, I completely.

[B]

Now I want Riley to stick it.

[A]

I completely understand. But I have really bad news for you. I know it's not going to go out there and show you exactly why they went to 44 year old Philip Rivers and everyone's going to go, yeah, yeah, I get it.

[C]

We feel good about Nico. Houston defense, Jonathan Taylor as starts in this game. I probably feel terrible about Pittman and Pierce and downs.

[B]

Oh yeah.

[C]

I feel questionable about Tyler Warren. It's weird how the season has gone. Obviously the quarterback's been a problem but like Colston Loveland or Tyler Warren, right now the Momentum is with Mr. Loveland and we'll take a break. We'll talk some more matchups.

[A]

It's Sunday morning, folks. The lineup decisions are piling up faster than dirty dishes in the sink. Your running backs questionable and so is your outfit. But here's the good news. Uncrossables just dropped two new flavors built for the chaos of Sunday mornings. Up an apple, bright eyed berry with 12 grams of protein. They're tasty, they're feeling and they keep you fueled through kickoff. So yeah, go ahead and binge the late game Saturday night. You can still be a morning person come Sunday.

[C]

All right. The New York jets at 3 and 13 taking on the 11 and 5 Buffalo Bills in week 18. Buffalo minus 7 over under 38 and a half. If you're playing against the New York jets, you're loving every minute of it right now. It has been delightful for every offense that has played them. Breeze hall might not even play. I'm not sure you see the Buffalo Bill starters beyond a half.

[A]

Please don't play. Breece. Yeah.

[B]

Breeze Hall.

[A]

Please don't play.

[B]

Don't play. No.

[A]

He went to the podium after the game last week, said his knee got banged up, but he's fine. He's not even going to get an mri. I hope that was because he knew he wasn't going to play ever again for the Jets. Please don't put yourself out there to get injured in this final week before your free agency hits. Don't do if I am his agent. Yeah, I'm standing next to him for the week. Like I will let you shower without me. Outside of that, I am standing next to you saying you are not playing this week. Yeah, you are not playing this week.

[C]

Yeah, it's a fair point. Buffalo beat him 30 to 10 in the first, the first matchup. The fact they're only 7 point favorites right now tells me there's some expectation for starters to get time off in this game.

[A]

You know, Josh Allen will get the start even if it's like a snap. Because isn't he on. He's still on that streak, right? I think he has.

[C]

No, I don't think so.

[A]

Really?

[C]

Am I wrong?

[A]

I think he has. Kyle hasn't missed a game in like since his rookie season. Okay, I can be.

[C]

No, you, I mean, I'm not positive.

[A]

I think that's correct.

[C]

But a seven point line, you would expect this to be double that. If all their starters were expected of.

[B]

Keeping oh week 17 in 2022 he missed. I don't see a Josh Allen game line.

[A]

I'll bet he started and took a knee or something in week 17.

[B]

They would give him a Snap though.

[A]

Kyle can look it up.

[C]

Yeah. So from a starter perspective, you know, this one's a nerve wracking game, but.

[A]

It'S one of those things where my point is if Josh Allen is active, this is a lot like Dak. I don't know how much Josh Allen you're going to get.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Oh, that was the Hamlin game. Oh, okay.

[A]

So that game did not exist.

[B]

That did not exist.

[C]

That one didn't finish.

[B]

Right.

[C]

Yeah. The Detroit Lions at eight and eight take on the Bears in week 18. Chicago minus three over. Under 50 and a half. The Bears are the number two seed with a win or a Philadelphia loss. The games that are played at the same time, I think Detroit like Chicago minus three. I'm going to hit this one right now.

[A]

Andy's almost upset of the week. Makes so much sense.

[C]

The Lions kneecap biting Lions with a chance to just mess something up for a division mate to stay above.500 on the season. Right. Like that's a big marker. You don't want to go under 500.

[B]

I think they don't want to lose to Max Brosmer.

[C]

Well, certainly, certainly. But I'm taking Detroit to win outright. All right.

[B]

I would take Chicago.

[C]

Caleb is 109 yards away from breaking the Bears passing yards record.

[B]

An astounding. Sitting at 37.

[C]

They've never had a 4,000 yard passer. Right.

[B]

And they will still.

[C]

No, he's at 3,730.

[B]

I guess he could do it.

[C]

70 yards.

[B]

You can do it, Caleb.

[C]

What's wrong with that? How many times?

[A]

It's a good matchup to do.

[C]

How many times is he throwing for 270 this year? He threw 330 last week. It's not a lot.

[B]

Two, three, four times.

[C]

Yeah, four. I see three.

[A]

Well, one of us. Wrong.

[C]

I see three times. Oh, four times.

[A]

Four times it was Andy.

[C]

So it's possible. Colson Loveland's been crushing it. Like there are a lot of players you can play in this game. Amon Ra is a little bit banged up with the knee, but I mean Gibbs and Jamo and you know, the Bear starters and Caleb and Luther Burden.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Targets last week. Colson Love Land for sure.

[A]

I mean Burden. I want to see the practice reports because of that knee, but I really want to play Luther Burden right now.

[C]

And what it just had like some small remnants of the I love this game vibe going on.

[A]

He's just been very.

[B]

He's good.

[A]

I don't know why, because it's not. He's. He's a more Physical archetype. But I see a lot of Percy Harving Harvin in like the. Get the ball in his hands and watch him make guys look a little silly.

[B]

As the. I can barely even utter my comp to him but he reminds me of Antonio Brown.

[A]

Whoa. Yeah, that's.

[C]

I wouldn't just dare argue with Mike this year.

[B]

So it could just be like I.

[A]

Did not know but apparently Luther Burton is going to be the greatest wide receiver.

[B]

I mean just like physically they're. They're like the same size and Luther Burden is just the. He had a play last week where he. I can remember if it was an out or a drag, but he's headed to the. To the sideline and he just. He's running full speed and then stops and accelerates immediately the other direction the defender went flying. It's like his. His body control. What he can do with his speed is incredible.

[C]

The Los Angeles Chargers are 11 and five taking on the 13 and three Denver Broncos. Denver minus 12 and a half against the backups. Over under is 37 and a half. That gives the Chargers 12 and a half points. We're not going to see Herbert. We probably won't see a ton of Hampton, if any. They need him badly. They have a banged up Vidal. So like Hampton for the playoffs is crucial.

[A]

I genuinely think that there is only one charger you can realistically start.

[C]

Who's that?

[A]

Trey Lance.

[C]

Because Mike likes him, dude.

[A]

And if it wasn't for Mike's love, I would say you can't start him either.

[C]

I don't think you can start Trey Lance.

[B]

I would like to start other players but it's very fun.

[C]

The Broncos need. The Broncos are going to kill Trey Lanez. They're going to kill.

[A]

I would agree with that. Because their defense always, always, always shows up. Their defense is unbelievable.

[C]

I will say they also need to win the game.

[A]

Oh, they do.

[C]

They need to secure the number one seed. Trey Lance will have no fewer than three turnovers.

[A]

They are playing for the bye week. The Broncos are going to show up. But I do worry about the Broncos offense because the Broncos offense usually plays to the competition. And I do not don't think that the Chargers offense is going to do anything against the Broncos.

[C]

The Chargers are going to play backups and nobodies throughout the game. I think it'll be a really easy one for Denver.

[A]

I completely agree with that. I'm just wondering how much fantasy goodness.

[C]

You'Re saying because the Chargers won't score.

[A]

Exactly. Yes. The Chargers are going to do absolutely nothing. The Broncos are going to run the ball.

[C]

I'll take a half of Denver Cardinals offense did nothing last week. Yeah, I mean that's where I'd go. R.J. harvey, I feel good about.

[A]

Yes.

[C]

Bo Nicks, Cortland, Sutton. I'm fine there. I probably don't mess around with too much more. I mean, Keenan Allen has some incentives he needs. I don't know if you saw that.

[A]

So yeah, he needed. I mean one of them is not happening. It's like two touchdowns for a big chunk of change.

[C]

Nobody's got another million on the line with six catches and nine receiving yards.

[B]

Does Keenan play?

[A]

He's got to get that.

[C]

If he, if he has six catches and nine receiving yards, he gets a million dollars incoming.

[A]

Five screens for Keenan Allen.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Is this it for Keenan?

[C]

Yeah, probably.

[B]

Because I know he's played the whole season with the Chargers, but if you remember, he was a very late. Maybe one more year like he was like.

[A]

He's certainly not training, camping next year.

[B]

Right.

[A]

Even if he's a charger, is he.

[C]

Just a one year deal?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So I mean I.

[B]

He came into the league in 2000.

[C]

I think he said he wants to play one more year. Yeah, he's played a long time. This one. We don't have to spend a lot of time on guys. But Kansas City takes on the Raiders and this is one they're going to be playing this game. Vegas minus Kansas City minus five and a half over under 36 and a half. So not a lot of points for either one. You have maybe the final NFL game for Travis Kelsey. So I think that's a player you can play.

[B]

Travis kelsey would need 161 yards. Trying to do quick math to get to 1000.

[A]

That would be more yards than the quarterback will throw though.

[C]

Yeah, that's impossible.

[A]

Impossible.

[C]

Genti, would you play him? He's not been on the injury report once this year either.

[A]

Yeah, I think Genty, I would play. I mean he's still going to be very involved. And the Kansas City Chiefs defense, they.

[B]

Couldn'T do jack squat against the Giants.

[C]

Genty, Kelsey, maybe Michael Mayer at tight end.

[B]

I don't.

[C]

That's your matchup.

[B]

I don't understand. I don't know what to do with Genti.

[A]

He's.

[B]

He is a top tier running back.

[C]

You always play him because you always have the ability to. I mean you said they couldn't do anything against the Giants. He was still top 24 running back. So.

[B]

Yeah, he slipped in.

[C]

I mean eight points. You can't. You can't selectively start.

[B]

Eight points got you in the top 24 last week.

[A]

It was a bad week.

[C]

They lost Geno Smith and he might not be starting. You just can't selectively start Ash Gingty because the matchup is not the story for him. You can see that because Houston was the worst possible matchup and he scored 31. Giants were a great matchup. He scored eight. You have to have them in there if you want explosive, explosive plays, sure, but that's. I'm not talking about that game anymore.

[B]

All right.

[C]

And you can't.

[B]

That's fine.

[C]

The Cardinals, the worst franchise in the history of all sports at 3 and 13 with a horrible coach and management, horrible players and horrible everything.

[A]

Who has a shot next year.

[C]

Horrible logo, horrible everything.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Horrible garbage team.

[A]

Sorry. I want Dable.

[C]

I would, too. I would love that. But they're going to bring back number two. The Rams are 11 and five. That's who the Cardinals get to play. The Rams are six and a half point favorites.

[A]

Does that line shock you?

[C]

That line is 100% because they're not going to play their players. Ah, yeah, that line, of course it shocks me because that line would be 14 if they thought Matthew Stafford and Kyron and Puka. And then we're going to play the whole game.

[A]

Sean McVeigh, if I will say this. So San Francisco, that. That game against Seattle, they play on Saturday.

[C]

Yep.

[A]

So if Seattle wins that game, I'll bet you the line grows because the Rams can then elevate to the fifth seed with a. With a win. I mean, they're going to win even with backups.

[B]

Right.

[A]

So they're not too concerned. But should Seattle win, then I'm more, you know, likely to play a Stafford.

[C]

That's a good. That's the best point that you can make for this game. If the opposite happens. If San Francisco wins and the Rams cannot improve their number five seed, I don't think they're going to play players.

[A]

Yeah, he said.

[C]

He said they were going to start him because we need to play. But he was angry right then.

[A]

Yeah, he was angry. They've lost some games recently. They're not playing their best football going into the playoffs. And so they said they were going to start him. So you can, you know, you can listen to the trap or you can walk around the leaves on the ground.

[C]

Trey McBride is awesome. He's the one bright, shining star, along with Michael Wilson in the sea of vomit in Arizona.

[A]

Trey McBride out in the middle of the Ocean. Some stars are very bright.

[B]

Yeah, that's true.

[C]

Trey McBride.

[B]

McBride, we got to juice these numbers. You got to make sure no one catches yours.

[C]

He's at 119.

[B]

Receiving record.

[C]

I want him at 130.

[A]

Well, it's not just. Here's the thing. On the other side of the field, Pukinakua. I believe they are tied, or at least they were tied maybe going into last week for the league lead in receptions. Oh, there's only been like 319.

[C]

They're tied.

[A]

There's only been, I think, three times in history where a tight end has led the NFL in receptions. So this will be like, what else.

[C]

Are you playing for? Just.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

No, I mean every play.

[A]

And if Puka ends up getting another reception on the next drive, you go, we got to get two for McBride.

[C]

Michael Wilson, just for fun, since week.

[B]

Unlimited tap passes.

[C]

Seven games.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

He's averaging one yard a catch, but.

[C]

He has 27 catches. That'd be amazing. Michael Wilson's. Since week. Michael Wilson since week 11. On pace for 123 catches, 1641 yards, 12 touchdowns, 194 targets. And that is a. That's since week 11.

[A]

Michael. Jerry. Bryce Wilson, which he is the arguably.

[C]

Like the best waiver wire pick that you could have picked up for week.

[B]

Of the vote in.

[C]

Great news that one of our options.

[B]

Great news for Michael Wilson. Marv is not playing.

[C]

No, he's out.

[A]

Okay. McBride, Michael Wilson.

[C]

Yeah, there you go. And then pay attention to that game on Saturday night and the motivation level for the Los Angeles Rams. The dolphins are 7 and 9. That seems impressive to me, considering how it's felt.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[C]

New England's 13 and 3. The Vegas line. New England minus 10 and a half. They need to win and they need Denver to lose to have the number one seed. It is possible. It is highly improbable. Yeah.

[B]

Just confirming the.

[C]

Do we have any comments, Kyle, on the New England strategy here in this game in terms of playing players? Vrabel hasn't said anything yet. Okay. Yeah. I mean, I.

[B]

And Broncos are playing in the afternoon. They're both in the afternoon.

[C]

Yep.

[B]

So the Pats will not know.

[C]

Feel good about Trayvon or Travion May and Achan.

[A]

Yes, May is on. I mean, the thing is, is you're still technically playing for a bye week. I know, obviously, with the Chargers resting their players, you presume that the Broncos will win. But it's the NFL. Crazy things can happen. And for Mike Vrabel and for Drake May, they want to get him the mvp, you know what I mean? That matters to NFL teams, to players. So I'm confident with Drake May because I don't think they're going to have him go out there and play a quarter and sit. I mean, I wouldn't. I would go get him that.

[C]

They probably get him the MVP. By the way, the Buffalo game update. Sean McDermott just came out and said that he is aware of the fact James Cook is in position to win the rushing title. And he said, quote, that's definitely on my mind.

[A]

And it's between what him and Jonathan Taylor. Does Jonathan Taylor play earlier?

[B]

Well, earlier than James Cook and the bills.

[C]

Taylor has 1559 rushing yards right now.

[B]

The Buffalo is in the afternoon. The Colts are.

[C]

So he's got about a. He's at 1606, 1559 and 1606. So he's got a nice 50 point lead. Ish.

[A]

Right. So if Jonathan Taylor goes out, has 99, 100 yards, takes that lead, then James Cook will go and get that lead.

[C]

Rabel did come out and say I did find one comment. Brooks, he found it on the Patriots said probably everybody that's healthy will play. So right now you just got to play with confidence with those guys. Which does mean Ramon Dre is in play as well.

[B]

Sure.

[C]

But the Dolphins have figured out how to stop the run pretty much all year. So I kind of like the big play potential of Trayvon more than I would like the other stuff.

[A]

Ramondre, I definitely agree. Trayvon is the better play between the two. And keep in mind this is a divisional matchup, so that matters. They want to smash the Dolphins.

[C]

Speaking of getting smashed all year long, Washington's 4 and 12 and they take on the Philadelphia Eagles backups who are 11 and 5. The Vegas line. Philly minus three and a half over under 38 and a half, not a high over under. Tanny McKee, Tanner McKee, Tank Bigsby, Johan Dotson. These are your stars in this game, your week. 18 stars.

[A]

Yeah, I mean, Tank Bigsby, the matchup is great. You're favored, you're at home, you're talented. He's the guy I would want from this game. I don't know that I would really play around with anyone else.

[C]

What about Jakori Karoski, Merritt?

[A]

Well, I meant on the Eagle side.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

Yeah, no, I think. Well, the problem with Jacori Crosky Merit is that Chris Rodriguez has been better than him when healthy and last week was an illness.

[B]

Crowd Crud.

[A]

Yes, crud. Late addition to the nicknames.

[C]

I mean I still play JCM over Chris Rodriguez at this point.

[B]

I think you have to, but I.

[C]

Don'T want to play either one of them. So Terry McLaurin, if you need to just give it a shot, maybe they try to get him a little bit more yardage accumulation on the year, but you're playing with super backups. He still had five catches last week for 63 yards. He's the go to guy. Sunday night football is the Baltimore Ravens who are 8 and 8 taken on the 9 and 7 Pittsburgh Steelers for the division. We're hearing word of Lamar Jackson practicing Baltimore minus three and a half over under a 40.

[B]

Classic AFC North.

[C]

Derek Henry will get the ball 20 plus times in this game. He should, you'll see.

[B]

Unless the coaches mess it up again.

[C]

I mean this feels like the game that everyone's going to say Baltimore will win, Lamar will come back. Right. Here's what's going to happen because this is how this works for Mike Tomlin. You know where I'm going.

[A]

I do.

[C]

Lamar will come back and play. Derek Henry will play. It will seem like Baltimore should win this game and Pittsburgh will claw out some nasty ugly win on the back of Pat Friar, Muth and Johnny Smith and Kenny Gainwell. They won't give it to Warren enough. Mike, he'll be running great but they won't give it to him. And Mike Tomlin will make the playoffs again, much to Jason's chagrin.

[A]

Go Baltimore.

[C]

The nice thing is is you can anybody you would play from this matchup. You can play because you don't have. This is the one matchup, one of a couple. Right. San Francisco, Seattle, Baltimore, Steelers, Carolina, Tampa. Those games you can play all the players you would normally play.

[A]

Do Steelers fans want to win this game?

[C]

Oh yeah.

[A]

Well, because I know, I know that they are so done with Tomlinson. I get that. But I think that as much as like Andy, you're kind of done with the Tomlin thing and you don't really have a horse in the race. I think when you're a Steelers fan, a lot of them are just really worn out with Tomlin and would maybe like them to move on. You very difficult to do that when you make the playoffs. So it's like their one chance to finally miss the playoffs and maybe move on. I didn't know because no Steelers fan looks at their team and goes we're going to win the Super Bowl.

[B]

Right, right.

[A]

I mean they're like the team. Well them and then whoever wins between Tampa and Carolina, those are the two teams where it's like no real shot they're going to be in the playoffs and probably one and done, but everyone wants to face them. So I want to get you some.

[C]

Numbers on the inner out on Tomlin. I'm super curious about that, about the Steelers fans out there. Are you in on Tomlin because he's a great coach and consistent, gets you to the playoffs and you want to keep it going or are you out on Tomlin and want a fresh start?

[A]

Did you put a pull up?

[C]

Yes, I did.

[A]

Did you add a third thing for view results? You got to have that when. Because only Steelers fans should be voting. You know what I mean?

[C]

What do you mean? View results?

[A]

Like third poll option to view results. Because if you're not a Steelers fan, you can't see the results unless you click on one of them and then you're totally ruining the results.

[B]

He has no idea what he's doing.

[A]

You're allowed to delete and repost. In the meantime, I'll tell you, Coach Mike Tomlin about 24 hours ago was talking about TJ Watt in this game, said he'll work him up over the course of the week and let the amount of participation, the quality of participation be our guide. I'm more optimistic than I've been in previous weeks. So there's a chance for a very important game that they get T.J. watt back. So just.

[B]

Do you guys realize that Zay Flowers. Little. Little Zay Flowers sitting here at the wide receiver 14?

[A]

No. Oh, my. No, I did not realize that.

[C]

That kind of fits with the. Who are the two other guys that are sitting right at like 11 and 12? Was it Juwan Jennings?

[A]

That was one of them.

[C]

I think our staff like a couple guys that you're just like, man, these guys just. They show up for the game every week.

[B]

Yeah, see? So Zay Flowers. I got to fix my scoring format real quick.

[A]

Wanda Robinson is the wide receiver 13. That's.

[C]

There is the thought that the loser of this game on between the Steelers in Baltimore will be also the. That team will lose their head coach.

[A]

Yeah, possible.

[C]

Because I think Ravens fans are growing tired of Harbaugh as well.

[A]

Oh, I know they are.

[C]

The initial poll results, after a little while, here is about 60, 40 out on Mike Tomlin. But, you know, this is a Steelers fan. I think he's a great head coach. Grateful for his time on the team. Time to move forward. It's not clicking the way it used to. We need a new voice in the locker room. And then Ravens fans were out On Harbaugh while we're at it is what they said.

[A]

Yeah, it makes sense. Cardinals, please go get the left.

[B]

The Harbaugh one is tougher because it's like Pittsburgh has not had a quarterback solution in. Since.

[A]

Since Big Ben.

[B]

Since Big Ben's, like, since about three years. Third. The last year or so.

[A]

Exactly.

[B]

I mean, and that. Yeah, that's on the team. That's on the gm. That's on the coach. You have. You should have had a plan. You got to figure out a plan. But Baltimore fans, you have Lamar. And if Harbaugh is not getting it done with Lamar, then I can understand being frustrated.

[C]

All right, it is time for the fantasy Face off for week 18.

[A]

Fantasy Face off, presented by Prize Picks.

[C]

So we'll try to be the very tiny, small splinter in Mike's finger while.

[A]

He is swimming in his poor thing.

[C]

In his golden bullion.

[B]

I would not be surprised if we spin the wheel and it's like Mike has to do this show again.

[A]

Wheel of.

[C]

Yeah, we're not recording.

[B]

It was a trick.

[C]

That's the actual wheel of Shame. We haven't been recording this podcast. You gotta do week 18 a second time.

[A]

By yourself.

[C]

By yourself. Solo. Solo. Week 18 is the ultimate punishment.

[B]

Spin the wheel. You can't hurt me, no matter what.

[C]

Mike's a shame. Mike.

[B]

Oh, big mouth. I do have a big.

[A]

Oh, yes.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Yes.

[C]

For those listening at home, Mike is going to have to insert a contraption.

[A]

Like you get in the dentist's office or the.

[C]

You had it right the first time. The.

[B]

The big. The big flap goes down.

[C]

This is the game. This is from the. The board game.

[A]

Yeah. So we're going to have to do our best job to. Yes.

[C]

Hello.

[A]

Oh, I wasn't sure if you could read your. All right, I can read.

[C]

This is a punishment for me. Of course it backfires. Mike has got. Mike has got the ultimate power. Magic Mike.

[A]

Mike, start us off with your quarterback.

[B]

My quarterback is Rock Purdy. 242 and a half.

[A]

242.

[C]

You're taking the.

[A]

This is awesome.

[B]

I got more. Ready more. I'm gonna be drooling.

[A]

Oh, man, this is so good.

[C]

My green goblin is my quarterback. Bryce young. More than 0.5 passing touchdowns.

[A]

Okay. Good luck.

[C]

Good luck.

[A]

I know. That's how I feel. I'm going to go with Quinn Ewers.

[C]

Ewers is about what I'm seeing right now.

[A]

Across from me, 188 and a half passing yards. No, Mike, I'm going less. What? Yeah.

[B]

He was good last week.

[A]

Sure. Yeah. Let's see how he does against the Patriots.

[B]

What position you want me to read next?

[A]

Running back.

[B]

Dude, there's so much rule, so much drool. Did you say running back?

[A]

Yes, I did.

[B]

Rico. Doubto.

[A]

Oh, you can roll the R's pretty well.

[B]

What's everyone laughing at? There's so much saliva everywhere. Rico down 57 and a half rush yards are going hard.

[A]

Okay, more than 57 rushing.

[C]

I'm taking Christian McCaffrey. More than 69.

[B]

My beard is saturated.

[C]

More than 69 and a half rushing yards for CMC.

[A]

Well, I'm taking Christian McCaffrey. More than 18 and a half rushing attempts.

[C]

Okay, so CMC action.

[A]

Yeah, I mean, super important game.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

They're going to be in it. They need them.

[B]

Justin Jefferson.

[A]

I almost took his line.

[B]

So what's he need for the thousand?

[A]

He needs 53.

[B]

You'll eat that. That's 64 and a half.

[A]

No, dude, I almost took 64 and a half less. And I thought you're going to walk that tightrope. It's going to be more than 53 and less than 64.

[C]

This is amazing. Mike Evans, Tampa Bay wide receiver. I 53.5 receiving yards more.

[A]

Okay. I too have a Tampa Bay Bucks wide receiver. And Mecca Igbuka.

[B]

Oh, no. I know, right? Oh, no.

[A]

Is my Green goblin. One and a half receptions. Just got to get the two. I know, I know. I'm going to be sweating. Just get two receptions.

[B]

I green gone. Horizon.

[C]

Is YouTube.
