Sully Shaheed
of course am the proprietor of this delicatessen Sully Alicia Heat and I am coming live from the couch of one co-host Christian Baker. I am in the friendly confines of my best friend on the planet who gave me the rights to broadcast live to you the DFS daily audience to talk about the week 16 main slate, our favorite plays, our favorite fades, all the good stuff that comes along with daily fantasy football. But of course, just like I mentioned in the intro, we were were
00:01:26
Sully Shaheed
We're, we're, we're into the semi-finals of some yearly leagues. So maybe some of the advice that we give you will help you out in those leagues. However, if you're a degenerate like us here on the show, you don't have anything else to do for the rest of the season. So why not come into these DFS streets? And we are here to break it down all for you. Chill Baker, who is continuously flicking me off because he knows that I didn't have to pay him any money this week because I'm still in the playoffs in our league. So
Hosts' Playoff Standings and Banter
00:01:56
Sully Shaheed
How's everything going, buddy?
00:01:58
Baker
Go fuck yourself. Alright? Go fuck yourself Batman. Alright? Sleep in your fucking car. Sleep in my goddamn house.
00:02:06
Sully Shaheed
Ow! That's not very nice.
00:02:10
Baker
Nobody's ever accused me of being nice. Of all the things that I've ever been accused of, being nice is not one of them. But aside from you rubbing salt in the wound that my team was just straight ass. Oh god was that team ass.
00:02:26
Baker
Mentioned earlier. It was Justin Jefferson and fuck the rest of these devices But on top of that we had a Unfortunate non sweat that could have been a sweat ah this past week with the Aaron Rodgers double but I had the wrong lines running back the one who happened to get hurt so I Was just a sad panda on so many fronts And I got Devontae Adam in yearly too. So, I'm just sad.
00:03:02
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, we'll ah we're gonna have to raise the glass for for knuckles here in a second, but chill. Welcome in, man. How's everything going for you, buddy?
00:03:11
Chill
uh... it's going pretty good uh... i'm i'm in both of my playoffs for yearly uh... in the semi finals for dynasty got a got a got a win in the first round there uh... made the playoffs for the other league i'm in so that's just about the start uh... locally for me i had josh alan and about the adams so you know my week went well um... so nothing to worry there but uh...
00:03:38
Chill
Yeah, I mean, I had a pretty decent week last week for football, so getting ready to dive on into this slate and it's i talk about some gross matchups.
00:03:51
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, it should be an exciting one.
00:03:53
Sully Shaheed
That's for sure. But it showed that you did you or Baker too because we're in the same contest. Did you happen to look at my lineup that I submitted for our contest last week on DraftKings dot.com?
00:04:05
Baker
I didn't look at it in depthly.
00:04:08
Sully Shaheed
I scored 130 points, right? 19 of them came from three players.
00:04:17
Chill
did it really thating that's incredible
00:04:18
Sully Shaheed
Jared Goff, Jared Goff, the Sun God and Jameer Gibbs.
00:04:23
Sully Shaheed
The rest of the teams was ones and zeros.
00:04:29
Sully Shaheed
It's pretty impressive, isn't it?
00:04:31
Baker
Like, like that is beyond incredible.
00:04:32
Sully Shaheed
I had the lion side correct. The bill side. Yeah, that's neither here nor there.
00:04:44
Chill
I also just want to toss out here shout out to Anthony who definitely has the most second place finishes in the doll hair this year I mean like he's lost by a couple points he lost by three last week ah after I told Anthony to suck it when James Connor got that ass so so so
00:05:08
Sully Shaheed
You gotta love DFS. You gotta love DFS. um If you don't know what we do here on the DFS of LA, again, we're gonna talk about position by position, our favorite plays on the slate. um But I would like to discuss some real life.
00:05:22
Sully Shaheed
implications that might impact the fantasy slate here coming up on Sunday. And
Analyzing Atlanta's QB Strategy
00:05:26
Sully Shaheed
that's the changing of the guard, one would say in Atlanta. um I like to get your opinions on the Kirk cousins slash Michael Pinnock situation, because we're gonna have to talk about him at quarterback and the James Winston slash DTR situation that we're going to be facing um on Sunday as well. So chill, I'll start with you. What are the Falcons doing?
00:05:48
Chill
um I mean so this kind of reminds me of and I think you guys would agree Do you guys remember when the foul when the Ravens did not want to start Lamar Jackson? But Joe Flacco absolutely looked awful This is that exact same situation um He's coming into a favorable matchup. I just don't are they at home against the Giants or are they at New
00:06:10
Baker
I think they're in Atlanta. I want to say they're in Atlanta.
00:06:13
Chill
I'm gonna take a quick look here because I think Yeah, they're at Atlanta. I mean like this would be the ideal matchup for him to come into at home against an easy opponent. I mean, I watched that entire game on Monday night and Kirk Cousins looked awful. um I think out of their first downs, all but one of them they got on the ground.
00:06:43
Chill
So, um, I mean, he was missing throws like they, he looked all, he looked done is what it was. I don't know if it's the injury or, or what it may be.
00:06:55
Chill
Um, but his time in Atlanta, that's clearly over. Um, I still think he'll be a starter next year. I think there's a couple of teams that may go trade for him, but, um,
00:07:07
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, but I mean he has a 67 million dollar dead cap hit and guess what a no trade clause So if he wants to sit back sit on the bench and make his money he can he could just No, I don't want to get traded and sit there behind Michael panics jr.
00:07:21
Sully Shaheed
So now what?
00:07:22
Chill
He could. He could. I don't think he will. I think I think it's a pride thing with quarterbacks. um
00:07:29
Sully Shaheed
Dude you're making like 30 million dollars a year and and you're at the twilight of your career like I think I think we can be done
00:07:35
Chill
But. So like, I guess my question to you would be, what if the San Francisco 49ers come knocking?
00:07:44
Sully Shaheed
And they don't play Brock Purdy. Is that what you're saying?
00:07:49
Chill
Because they could keep purdy. They can have purdy and cousins.
00:07:55
Sully Shaheed
That's a really good question, actually. Baker, I'll let you answer that.
00:08:00
Baker
ah I mean I just don't see the situation where the 49ers want to pay Kirk Cousins when they seem very content with Brock Purdy and Brock Purdy hasn't given them real reasons to come off of him. ah I mean the only situations of which I see Kirk Cousins being available to is the Jets. If Aaron Rodgers retires
00:08:27
Chill
uh... arias is not retiring he like i find it kind of coincidence that all of suddenly he's playing well now no they're playing trash ass teams i mean we'll see this week with the rams in town but uh...
00:08:37
Baker
I mean, it's like it's an extreme coincidence.
00:08:48
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, but the Jets are a trash ass team. So.
00:08:50
Chill
they are trash uh... but you know it'll it'll be interesting uh... And then obviously going over to the DTR, a that Cincinnati defense is not good.
00:09:06
Sully Shaheed
I mean, that's a sad state of affairs for us as DFS players, because we could have had James Winston against the bangles. And I think it would have been fun.
00:09:17
Baker
Oh, we were loading. I was loading up all the James that was a little hard to desire.
00:09:20
Chill
I have just loaded up another Joe Burrow double.
00:09:25
Sully Shaheed
and just ran it back with Jerry Judy.
00:09:29
Chill
I it don't matter. I you could put Jerome Ford. I don't know. And I don't know in a ah I don't know in a Joe Burrow double if you can afford Judy at that point.
00:09:41
Baker
Yeah, Judy ain't cheap no more.
00:09:49
Baker
Theoretically, you should be back this week, but it's been three weeks since the concussion. So it's really just we're we're all in wait and see mode on center.
00:09:57
Chill
So I mean, I probably would have probably chalked your own forward, I would think.
00:10:03
Sully Shaheed
I hope we get Cedric Tillman back because we got the shower narrative with DTR and Cedric Tillman. I'm just saying we would have the shower narrative and you know how we feel about shower narratives.
00:10:14
Sully Shaheed
So any narrative we can get, we're going to ride out.
00:10:18
Chill
I mean, I mean, for for Atlanta, I think they should have went to PENIX.
00:10:26
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, but we'll see. I mean, it's tough. It's tough situation for Michael Penix Jr. because he's in the heat of a playoff. you know, Chase, because they're a game behind the box. Um, and, and it's like, you paid all this money to Kirk cousins, but at the same time, one TD to nine interceptions in his past three games.
00:10:43
Sully Shaheed
Like that's not good. That's not going to get the job done. So I get the reason why Atlanta did it. And now I guess you can justify the draft pick of Michael Pinnix, but at the same time, what if Michael Pinnix looks like shit?
00:10:57
Chill
Well, I mean, so I think so.
00:10:58
Sully Shaheed
I guess the giants, I guess the giants nonetheless,
00:11:00
Chill
So I think it's going to be hard for him to look bad, truthfully, because I believe they're going to come out and run a lot and probably keep these throws short to intermediate. um But like he faces the Giants, the commanders, and then they end on the Panthers.
00:11:18
Chill
So ah just based on matchup alone, I think it's going to be hard for him to look bad. I don't think they're catching the Bucks, ah because that means the Bucks end with the Cowboys.
00:11:29
Chill
I don't know who the other one would be, but they probably play the Saints.
00:11:34
Chill
So unless of the Bucks lose to Dallas some way somehow, man, I don't really see it happening, because they just got to finish. they hit They had the two-game the twoga lead on the Bucks for the division.
00:11:48
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Well, gentlemen.
00:11:50
Chill
oh My bad, Tampa Bay gets Carolina at home next week. hey but We'll have a spoiler alert into who we're playing next week.
00:11:56
Sully Shaheed
You know how that goes.
00:12:03
Sully Shaheed
Facts facts Both of them Anyway, that's with let's not preview week 17.
00:12:09
Chill
Sure, I don't hate it. You gonna run the Bucks wide receivers back on the other side?
00:12:16
Baker
I'm just running the box on the other side.
00:12:25
Sully Shaheed
Let's let's talk week 16 guys. Let's talk week 16 um before we get into
00:12:28
Baker
But week 17 seems so much better than week 16 already.
00:12:32
Sully Shaheed
I can get behind exactly what you're saying, sir. But as this tradition, gentlemen, it's that time, our favorite time of the show to raise the glass for those we've lost in week 15.
00:12:51
Sully Shaheed
Those of you at home listening in your cars or wherever you ingest your favorite podcast, make sure you raise that glass of whatever beverage you're drinking to say rest in peace.
00:13:03
Sully Shaheed
Winston Cyr McCormick, Nick Chubb, Young Ho Ku, the careers of Jamis Winston, and Kurt Cousins, you will be sincerely missed. And also, Knuckles and seven different starters for the Detroit Lions defense.
Detroit Lions Injury Woes
00:13:25
Sully Shaheed
Rest in peace, you will be missed. We raise the glass for you.
00:13:36
Sully Shaheed
Boy, I swear, if the Detroit Lions could just turn injuries off, they would be in such a better place.
00:13:42
Baker
they They'd be cooking right now.
00:13:45
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I mean, they're still cooking. They only got two losses in NFL. But you know, I'm still.
00:13:50
Chill
Well, I mean, there' there i mean therere their season kind of hinges, I think, at week 18.
00:13:50
Sully Shaheed
Once the Josh Allen, once the Baker Mayfield.
00:13:56
Chill
I think they play Minnesota.
00:14:00
Sully Shaheed
Man, that could still be for the division.
00:14:01
Chill
could you imagine Could you imagine that's for the one seed versus the five seed?
00:14:11
Sully Shaheed
And one of those one of those teams would have to go to the West.
00:14:12
Chill
So they'll lose so they'll lose yeah yeah well one the loser of that game probably plays the Rams.
00:14:20
Chill
and the rams are And the Rams will beat whichever team they face, in my opinion.
00:14:26
Sully Shaheed
If the Rams win the West, they're winning whoever they're beating whoever goes in there and if and win and win the Bucks win the South.
00:14:30
Chill
Yeah, they'll beat Minnesota.
00:14:34
Sully Shaheed
The Bucks are beating whoever goes to Tampa. Period.
00:14:38
Chill
That would probably beat Tampa Green Bay, right?
00:14:42
Sully Shaheed
at this point commies football playoff commies football wow they should have no one wants to see the you draft kings players did
00:14:43
Chill
Yeah, and then Philadelphia will play Washington.
00:14:51
Chill
speaking. R Cleveland Browns got flexed out of Sunday Night Football next week. Browns against Miami got flexed out. ah Atlanta and Washington got flexed in, so we lost that game off to slate.
00:15:14
Baker
Don't act like you actually want to play that that crap.
00:15:17
Sully Shaheed
I don't, I don't, Baker, you're 100% right. 100%. Well, I guess we can start where we kind of left off at. We're going to talk about quarterbacks and our favorite plays for the week, you know, this, this early 50,000 foot view of the slate. um I guess we could start with Michael Pinnix at the men, basically, and chill. Do you have any interest in Michael Pinnix Jr. this week?
00:15:43
Chill
I do. um It's not even going off a talent level. It's just going off a money-saving level. um you know I mean, we do have some value pretty early on this slate. We'll kind of go into that when we need to. um There's a lot of gross quarterbacks that I like this week. We'll get into two puke plays here in a second.
00:16:04
Chill
um If you're spending up at quarterback this week, I think you're contrarian. Obviously, Josh Allen is still on his heater ah at home against the Patriots. um Don't know if you stack them with anybody or if you don't, but you probably should. And trying good luck trying to guess what creative character he's bringing along.
00:16:25
Chill
um You got Joe Burrow at home against the Browns, ah although Joe Burrow doesn't particularly play well against Cleveland. um there're through I mean, you can chalk the Bengals for one thing. They're throwing 40 times. it It doesn't matter. Like at this point, like he's kind of becoming this matchup proof at this week. At this point late in the season, um they still have to win. They're fighting for the slimmest of playoff hopes. I have two puke plays. One's really puke-y and one is like, oh my God, you're dying puke-y.
00:17:07
Chill
Uh, the first one is Caleb Williams.
00:17:08
Sully Shaheed
I was gonna say can I guess and I wasn't gonna say Caleb Williams. Trust me AOC against Jacksonville The return of the Mack Jones
00:17:12
Chill
You might be able to guess the second one, but we'll get there. Um, uh, the other quarterback in that game. Yeah. Uh, I'll get to that reasoning here in a second. Um, but, uh, so like Detroit now, any game they're gonna win, it's probably going to be a shootout.
00:17:36
Chill
Uh, cause they got folks like us on the defense. play I mean, like most of their games are going to be shootouts. Um, I understand like the bears offenses look putrid. Um, but at least on Thanksgiving, the second half of that game against Detroit Caleb looked good. Um, obviously Detroit doesn't, they lost starters since then. Um,
00:18:03
Chill
And I think, again, um with so many people here, they're winning in shootouts. like I don't think this defense is going to be able to stop anybody. So I kind of like Caleb Williams here. And then, yeah, Mack Jones. um So that game is actually up in pace. It's going to be actually one of the higher snap and up in pace games.
00:18:27
Chill
um Antonio Pierce and like the Raiders are still trying you could see that from Monday night because they almost beat the Falcons Like they were in Hail Mary range um And Mack Jones with Doug Peterson. They're actually running like a no huddle offense So they're actually playing really fast and that offense is condensed to two people He's throwing the ball to two people so honestly for like for return of the Mac and
00:18:58
Chill
ah You know that game with the Jets won people a lot of money last week, so And both of these defenses are ass Plus with McCormick going down a no-connels kind of back.
00:19:14
Chill
I Think there's gonna be a lot of throwing in this game Well, I mean I mean a Jetson Jags
00:19:17
Sully Shaheed
I just don't trust when two bad teams meet and I don't expect fireworks.
00:19:26
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, that's true. All right. Fair point. Baker. Um, a lot of gross plays we can contemplate this week. And I think there's a lot of, I don't think there's going to be an overwhelming chalk quarterback, like we've seen in the past couple of weeks, but I think that most of the chalk is going to come at the running back position, but we'll get there here shortly.
00:19:43
Sully Shaheed
But as far as quarterbacks, is there any, can you get any puke here than what Chill Game us?
00:19:49
Baker
i Mean I don't mind the Caleb milk the Caleb Williams call for all the same reasons that he admitted mentioned with you know another With one of the defensive backs and Carlson Davis going down for the year You know, they're obviously just thin in general defensively and Caleb Williams in recent memory definitely had his best game on Thanksgiving first East Alliance so I don't mind the Caleb Williams call I really can't get on the return of the Mac and because I think he was in potentially a one of the best game situations he could have been in last week. And he's like, I mean, he had a good day. Don't get it twisted for himself. But from a fantasy perspective, it still wasn't all that, you know, spicy unless we're saying he can do that again. And nobody's dropping, you know, 30 plus points under those circumstances. Then what he did, you know, would have actually absolutely smashed. But obviously other quarterbacks smashed in
00:20:45
Baker
quarterback going against him and that ah Buffalo game I'm out on Josh Allen this week obviously we've seen him go nuclear the last two weeks the main reason being though like they were just game environments that you had to have they were game environments that breeded points I don't see the Patriots being able to breed points to push Josh Allen to do this and when Josh Allen hasn't been pushed this year that's what we got the majority of the season he's not being pushed so he's not going super sane on us oh I think one of the games I'm most interested in is this Jets game and I don't i don't think it's point-chasing luckily is You know, obviously we saw we know the Rams can push anything um And we just saw the fact that Matt Jones going off against Matt Jones going off against this Jets defense which you know goes off a reputation at this point in time I don't think they're actually
00:21:36
Baker
bob Good at any one thing whether it be stopping the run or stopping the pass so the pass catchers especially from the Rams I'm not sure if I'm really on Matt Stafford just because it's so difficult for Matt Stafford to get there but yeah The passing game and I could see Aaron Rodgers because I think the Jets are just saying hey fuck it at this point oh We're just gonna let Aaron Rodgers throw the ball 40 times and whatever happens happens
00:22:01
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I like those takes. Can I interest you in two gross plays and one solid play? Can I interest you in Mason Rudolph?
00:22:13
Sully Shaheed
Dang, Baker.
00:22:16
Sully Shaheed
Mason Rudolph was balling last week though, Baker.
00:22:18
Sully Shaheed
And every time he started, he's been actually good. like
00:22:19
Chill
So the, so the, so the Colts defense isn't as bad as what we think.
00:22:26
Chill
Um, if it wasn't for Jonathan Taylor to say, fuck it at the one yard line, like, I think that game would have been completely different. Um, man, like I don't, I don't.
00:22:41
Sully Shaheed
If you need a cheap stack, I mean, it's right there and we all know where the ball is going.
00:22:45
Chill
I think Mack Jones, believe it or not, will be less owned.
00:22:50
Sully Shaheed
That's crazy. All right. The second gross one is DTR.
00:22:54
Sully Shaheed
Like this bangles defense is atrocious.
00:22:58
Chill
it's I think for me, it'll be a it'll be an ownership thing with DTR.
00:23:05
Chill
Because I think i think it'll be ownership.
00:23:05
Sully Shaheed
Baker, you your question mark.
00:23:08
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I get it.
00:23:09
Baker
Did you say Baker DTR question mark? Is that what I just heard?
00:23:14
Baker
Have you watched ah him play football?
00:23:18
Sully Shaheed
Uh, yeah. In the preseason when he was like, good.
00:23:20
Baker
He's bad at it. He's bad at football.
00:23:26
Sully Shaheed
Okay. Okay.
00:23:26
Sully Shaheed
Okay. I'll get, I'll get, okay. So I'll give you one that's actually good at football. How about Jared goth versus the bears? If everyone's got, and let's say not if, when everyone plays Jameer Gibbs this week, when everyone plays Jameer Gibbs this week, why can't we have another golf explosion game? Like we saw last week against the bills. Yes, I get it. The game environment was conducive of him having to throw for damn near 500 yards and five touchdowns or whatever the hell he just did. But we haven't seen, and and I don't think that um dan or yeah Dan Campbell has
00:24:04
Sully Shaheed
the propensity to give Jameer Gibbs 30 carries. That's not going to happen. So if his weapons can open up to the point where, you know, this, this bears team is ass atrocious. So it's like, ah why can't we get fantasy production from the passing side of the ball? Why can't we go back to La Porta and the sun God and, you know, any of those weapons instead of playing the running backside of the ball?
00:24:29
Chill
So I think you'll just be down there with Baker and I then, because if we think Caleb Williams is going to push this game, then Jared Goff is a great play. Because that's what you're going to need to happen, right? You're going to need the Bears to competently score points.
00:24:50
Sully Shaheed
That's fair.
00:24:55
Chill
Again, you know that's what kind of depends on it. You know, you're going to look at these quarterbacks, like again, DTR and Michael Panics are basically like, they cost nothing.
00:25:05
Sully Shaheed
It costs absolutely nothing.
00:25:05
Chill
So it's like, so it's like, and everybody's going to see that Cincinnati defense.
00:25:12
Chill
And like, I think, I think DTR is going to be one of the more chalkier quarterbacks from the slate. Right.
00:25:17
Sully Shaheed
Oh, then I'm not playing them.
00:25:19
Chill
I would think, I don't know. I don't, I don't have any projections yet. Um, but like,
00:25:24
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, it is early on a Wednesday. So I completely understand.
00:25:27
Chill
Do you want to play 12%, 13% DTR?
00:25:33
Sully Shaheed
Absolutely not.
00:25:34
Chill
I'd rather play 1% Mack Jones for a little bit more.
00:25:41
Sully Shaheed
Got a point bigger. Do we miss anybody?
00:25:47
Chill
I think there's, I have two questions about two quarterbacks. One is your ex, Baker.
00:25:53
Baker
No! Stop it with him! No, absolutely fucking not.
00:25:56
Chill
it's It's for the bit, Baker. It's for the bit.
00:25:59
Chill
They're at Carolina.
00:26:01
Baker
I don't care. They could be at my house in the answers.
00:26:06
Chill
I mean, this is this would be the week.
00:26:07
Baker
Calamari in that de defense, in that offense could be going up against 12 or 17 or 34 bakers. And I'm still going to say no.
00:26:16
Chill
Okay, okay. Damn. wo Well, hostile towards your ex.
00:26:21
Baker
Don't with that bitch.
00:26:22
Chill
It's all right. Okay, and then... um Anthony Richardson going up against Tennessee.
00:26:29
Sully Shaheed
It was a toxic relationship. I mean,
00:26:34
Baker
It was toxic. that that shit That shit was not good for either one of us. I'm glad of my best.
00:26:39
Chill
So that that would be my, I think those two are kind of intriguing on the slate.
00:26:44
Sully Shaheed
um I think a rich can go one of two ways. Obviously either he can go nuclear or get benched. But again, it is, it's Tennessee. They're bad. So.
00:26:57
Chill
And then out of state, I probably have zero interest in Jalen Hertz and Jayden Daniels with it being the second time they're playing each other. So I probably had zero interest in the quarterbacks from that game.
00:27:12
Sully Shaheed
Baker thoughts.
00:27:14
Baker
Yeah, that game's really not high on my priority list. I mean, parts of me could be interested in the Minnesota Seattle game, but that game's really not popping off in my brain a lot either, so.
00:27:30
Sully Shaheed
That's fair. All right. So we're safe to move over to running backs.
00:27:34
Baker
And my puke player running back, yes.
00:27:37
Sully Shaheed
Cool. um Give me a reason not to play the following.
00:27:43
Sully Shaheed
Jamir Gibbs, Chase Brown, Bijon Robinson, James Cook.
00:27:49
Chill
I think you're playing the wrong James.
00:27:54
Chill
Uh, James Connor against the Panthers. Uh, the Panthers run defense is still not good. And if there's one thing Baker's favorite team likes to do, they want to run the ball.
00:28:08
Baker
I thought I was a Vikings man.
00:28:09
Baker
I thought I was a Vikings man. How the fuck did I become a Cardinals fan?
00:28:11
Chill
Yeah, listen, you can become a Vikings fan, but they could be your favorite team.
00:28:17
Chill
ah You're a Cardinal supporter. How about that?
00:28:19
Baker
No, absolutely not.
00:28:20
Chill
yeah Baker, a lot of the reason why you're mad at your ex is because of James Connor.
00:28:20
Baker
I am done with that bitch, okay?
00:28:26
Baker
It it has as absolutely nothing to do with James Connor.
00:28:29
Baker
It has everything to do with the first segment of the fucking show. It has everything to do with the first segment.
00:28:32
Chill
Well, James Connor, no, he drops 33 last week. A very quiet 33.
00:28:40
Baker
I wasn't mad at James. I wasn't mad at him at all.
00:28:44
Chill
Well, of course not. He's just doing his job.
00:28:47
Baker
I am mad at number one.
00:28:47
Chill
It's being a good friend.
00:28:51
Baker
I am mad at number 18.
00:28:54
Chill
Well, if they weren't able to run the ball this good with James Connor, then they would get more reps.
00:29:00
Baker
One thing, I am mad at number one and his false his false promises that he made to me. I am not mad at his uh, his running mate his side and i'm saying his uh, his wing woman His wing man in number 18 because they i'm saying that they were they promised me They promised me the world and they delivered me nothing
00:29:20
Chill
Um, no, and in my only other issue, like James Cook absolutely can nuke a slate, but like he's not even the best running back on the team. And like, and this is not a shot at Josh Allen, but like he's one of the best runners of the football in the league. It's probably top three behind Saquon and whoever you want to put there. So like my fear is, is, is Josh Allen, uh, Ty Johnson, I guess is still a thing there in Buffalo.
00:29:51
Chill
um like Ray Davis, I don't know, do they have other running backs that they can steal touchdowns from?
00:30:00
Sully Shaheed
Well, see, that's the thing about the game plan from last week is that they knew what to do to attack the Lions. So they just funneled through the running backs. That's why Amari Cooper had nothing. That's why, you know, Killer Secure only got there because of a shovel pass. Like they functioned their offense straight through the running backs last week because that was definitely Detroit's weakness because they are so injured at the linebacker defensive line position. andbi And the end, of course, we had the Ty Johnson revenge game. So I mean,
00:30:28
Sully Shaheed
That was a narrative that we didn't know about. So, but, um but it gave me, we don't need, and as Baker alluded to in the first segment is that we don't need Josh Allen to be the fire Hawk in this game. They can beat, they can beat the Patriots by doing nothing. Like that's how the Buffalo wants to run their offense is ball control, run the ball. And it's got to go through, you know, somebody and I get it. Ray Davis and Ty Johnson are a thing.
00:30:55
Sully Shaheed
when they're needed, but this game could definitely funnel through James Cook. And because of like the guys you mentioned or the guys I mentioned, as well as you adding onto a James Connor is that out of that group, James Cook might be the lowest owned of the bunch.
00:31:11
Sully Shaheed
So, and I will definitely take that ownership discount every day, but you're right.
00:31:16
Sully Shaheed
Carolina's defense is sauce. We all know the role that Jameer Gibbs is going to enter into because of the injury today with Montgomery. I get that. But again, As I mentioned, and I'll let Baker answer this, what other running backs would I even contemplate playing on this slate than those group of guys?
00:31:38
Baker
Uh, the running backs that you want to play on this late, besides those group of guys, you're bottom feeding. You are so going to become a bottom feeder, as I think I'm going to be a bottom feeder.
00:31:50
Baker
Um, I mean, I still think Chuba Hubbard's in play after obviously coming off of a terrible week, uh, against Dallas.
00:31:56
Chill
I thought he said, he said Chuba, didn't he?
00:32:00
Chill
Oh yeah, play Chuba Hubbard.
00:32:02
Baker
I think, I think Chuba's still in play. Um, I actually think DeAndre Swift's in play. Because one of the things I
Spotlight on DeAndre Swift
00:32:09
Baker
don't think we took into account enough when it comes to Detroit and a lot of their injuries is that, you know, their injuries are plenty full.
00:32:16
Baker
And that run defensive there is that was good to start at the season. it It may not be that. So I think I could definitely see a big play or two coming out of DeAndre Swift as well.
00:32:26
Chill
So I got a question with Swift. My fear there, and this is totally just an opinion, like when the Bears just want Caleb Williams to throw more just to see what they got. Now, this young man has been killed. I think he's been sacked like 58 times, but like. I mean, like Swift can get there through the air, too, but like that that would be my fear is that they just want this man to throw.
00:32:52
Baker
I mean, I can definitely see that. But in the games of where the Bears have been a little bit more successful offensively, it's been a lot of De'Andre Swift as well. So ah like I said, it's a play that more so has to do with the Detroit being just depleted up front and in the secondary versus just the fact of, you know,
00:33:21
Baker
the the thought process behind getting Caleb this or that.
00:33:24
Chill
Yeah. um And again here if we're just taking a look I get defense versus position um Some of the worst teams again from a fantasy standpoint that are really bad against running backs. So here are your top five The Panthers are the worst giving up about eight point about nine points More expected like a point rate ah Buffalo would be second the Giants are third Jags are fourth. I mean, I unfortunately
Colts' Defense: Underestimated?
00:33:54
Chill
I don't know if any of us are interested in Alexander Madison and
00:33:57
Chill
Um, cough, cough. Uh, and then you got the, uh, the Cardinals on there as well. Um, and then after that you have the Colts, uh, are actually pretty bad as well. I'd feel better about, oh, like if Tony Pollard was actually out, you could just play Taji Spears. That'd be fantastic. Cause trying to guess which one of those two is going to do something is annoying, but.
00:34:24
Chill
I mean, for value this week, we got Jerome Ford, we got him back in our lives, going up against his Bengals team. I mean, we just saw what the Tennessee running backs did to this defense. um Could be more in line for more check down work. So again, he may be kind of chalky at this point, because of a value. but
00:34:45
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I was going to ask a couple of value plays that we do have on a slate is going to be a drone forward and a mira doula now that sincere McCormick is out.
00:34:53
Chill
Is he starting over Madison? Or is it like by committee, you think?
00:34:58
Sully Shaheed
It's probably going to be by committee, but we all know who gets all the passing game work and that's Amir Abdullah. So if we think that they're going to be trailing this game, I mean, we saw the ridiculous amount of volume that he got through the air last week.
00:35:09
Sully Shaheed
So it could be one of those cause it can be one of those cases where at like for 800 bucks, like you can get 10 to 15 points out of Amir Abdullah without scoring. So in this particular scenario, Baker,
00:35:19
Chill
Right. any and any interested in there i mean i do i said i do have interest in the tennessee guys um nobody's playing on nobody plays tony pollard
00:35:27
Baker
For me, for me, not really. Just because when Raimondre has scored this year, it's been in games, the Patriots can keep close. I don't see them keeping that game close, so.
00:35:50
Chill
um Again Pollard's a little harder because of that ankle injury that he's still dealing with But like if he were to be ruled out, I think Taj a Spears becomes the insta chalk.
00:36:02
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I can definitely see that.
00:36:03
Chill
I Mean I draft Kings he's 4900 So But I doubt he's getting rolled out so
00:36:15
Chill
But no, like all these guys you mentioned ah up at the top, I think it's going to kind of keep ownership spread out this week on running backs.
00:36:20
Sully Shaheed
Yes, yes, big time.
00:36:22
Chill
So you're just going to kind of have to guess or you just get different and, you know, you just play these good running backs. I mean, again, yeah. Is is anybody playing Kyron Williams this week?
00:36:35
Chill
Probably not. Is anybody playing HN this week? Probably not. So if you want to get different, those are probably the two guys you can get different with.
00:36:45
Sully Shaheed
facts. Any other thoughts on running backs before we slide over to our receiver?
00:36:49
Baker
I've got a puke play and I have once again, speaking of good players and nobody's playing. Nobody's playing Saquon Barkley. Just gonna throw it out there. Though it's not really a game I'm really that targeted in, it's Saquon freaking Barkley.
00:37:03
Chill
The last time they did play the commanders, I do believe he nuked them.
00:37:11
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, but we saw the game, um you know, he checked out for a little bit with a minor injury. I know it hasn't surfaced this week in practice. I know he hasn't missed any time, but he did, you know, check out for a few plays, try to get back in there.
00:37:22
Sully Shaheed
They, they'd like Kenny game. Well, a lot. So they just kind of wrote him out, but yeah, ah you're right.
00:37:29
Sully Shaheed
No one's playing them. And this, this is St. Paul Barkley we're talking about. So
00:37:34
Chill
Yeah. Who's the puke boy?
00:37:37
Baker
So I honestly don't think that the Lions offense is, like Sully said earlier, is just going to give Jameer Gibbs the entire freaking show. Is he going to be the lead? Absolutely. But can I interest you in a little Craig Reynolds of your life?
00:38:00
Chill
Is it going to be Craig Reynolds or is it going to be the other guy that I can't pronounce his name.
00:38:10
Chill
I can't pronounce his name.
00:38:12
Chill
I'm just going to be flat out. I'm not even going to try.
00:38:14
Baker
I tried. I think i think you say it, Vaskey. Don't quote me on that.
00:38:17
Chill
It's V-A-K-I. That's his last name. S-I-O-N-E.
00:38:26
Chill
I'm not even going to try to pronounce
00:38:26
Sully Shaheed
I don't think I'm going to get, I don't think, I i don't think I'm going to get behind the the backup running back to Jameer Gibbs this week. I mean, like, no, and we we can get cheap. Like I said, if we're going to get cheap and pukey, let's just go a mere doula and walk away. That, that would be my thought about it.
00:38:40
Chill
Yeah, I'm okay with that. um
00:38:45
Chill
um I mean, also too, if you want to get a little bit different in that 6K range, I don't think people are going to play Aaron Jones. um And we just saw Josh Jacob run all over Seattle.
00:38:59
Chill
I mean, that was literally their first half offense was just handed off to number eight.
00:39:05
Chill
like. So that that could be intriguing as well. it's that That's one of the weirder games on the slate. That game could be 10-0 or 30-30.
00:39:18
Baker
Are we talking to James once of again?
00:39:18
Sully Shaheed
Plan for the tie.
00:39:20
Baker
Are we talking to James once again? He said 30 for 30.
00:39:24
Sully Shaheed
Hey, again, rest in peace.
00:39:25
Chill
God did not deliver him. God did not deliver him from interceptions.
00:39:29
Sully Shaheed
God delivered him to the bench. That's what he did.
00:39:32
Baker
But he still has unwavering faith.
00:39:34
Baker
Still has unwavering faith.
00:39:35
Chill
I don't know why this keeps happening.
00:39:36
Sully Shaheed
Let's unwavering faith.
00:39:38
Chill
I just keep throwing interceptions floors.
00:39:41
Sully Shaheed
Ultimate belief. um Receivers. Now this is where the bread is buttered. And I'll tell you what, I have no idea where I want to start. I know it. I know I want to tether them to my quarterback, but at the same time, like this is a slate. That's pretty wide open for receivers, especially at the top. I mean, we saw what Devontae Adams did, you know, in a half of football, a half of football. Um,
Wide Receiver Options for the Week
00:40:10
Sully Shaheed
I mean, there's going to be opportunities for guys like Pook and the cooler. I mean, it's just.
00:40:14
Sully Shaheed
It's wide open. So I mean, where in Baker, I'll start with you, where are you starting at the wide receiver position because this one, this one is a conundrum for me.
00:40:23
Baker
I mean, I think it just depends on how, I mean, I agree. I a hundred percent agree that this is a week in which where you're building is just going to put you on the wide receiver. Uh, you want to build clinics, then you can be on Drake London and Darnamoni. You want to be on Josh Allen, then you should just play him by his damn self and say, fuck receiver. If you want to play Aaron Rodgers.
00:40:49
Baker
You can continue to play Devontae Adams and pray that he might throw to somebody else. If you so choose to do something crazy like that.
00:41:01
Baker
Because I don't like the game environment in Cleveland, it takes me off of Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase. But it's still fucking Jamar Chase.
00:41:15
Sully Shaheed
It is still effing Jamar Chase. mean I get that. But again, for my livelihood in fantasy football, let's hope it's not Jamar Chase, Baker.
00:41:26
Sully Shaheed
Okay. I don't, I have to deal with him in both of my leagues and I would really like a quiet game from Jamar Chase. That's just me being selfish.
00:41:34
Baker
So so quiet game so 12 catches for a hundred yards in the touchdown, that's quite right That's why He is he is playing Georgia and Joe girl here Well chill you're playing the fucking Bengals trio sir
00:41:37
Chill
I would like, I think I'd, so I too am playing Jamar Chase and Joe Burrow.
00:41:40
Sully Shaheed
For Jamar Chase, that's pretty quiet actually.
00:41:51
Chill
So I might just hedge my, I just might hedge my bets here and that's just, I'll stack it.
00:41:59
Chill
Yeah, that's fine, that's fine. ah Baker, I almost didn't have a quarterback this week.
00:42:08
Chill
Like, luckily, I think Geno Smith is playing. And I forgot to mention Geno Smith on the quarterback thing. I like Geno this week. And we'll cover that here in a second.
00:42:19
Chill
But yeah, yeah I would have had to start Geno. Because, you know, unwavering faith got benched. Because, like, I would have texted you, Baker, would you have started Pat Mahomes or James Winston?
00:42:32
Baker
Last week James wasn't easy Davis wants to order rain that shit
00:42:33
Chill
No, no, no. This week. In the playoffs.
00:42:39
Sully Shaheed
Jamis, Jamis without question.
00:42:41
Chill
So I would have had a decision, but thanks to unwavering faith, God took it out of my hands. Um,
00:42:49
Chill
um, no, so kind of taking a look here at the slate. Um, and for us drive Kings players, I don't know how it is on the old fan door. Cause I didn't look yet. Um, the wider, like the mid range wide receivers are really, really good. Um, why is DK Metcalf 5,500?
00:43:10
Baker
Yeah, I mean that that like it's getting to the point where it's like you almost just want to just like, you know what? Fuck it. Play DK Metcalf, right?
00:43:17
Chill
I mean, they're going up against Minnesota. I understand Seattle's offensive line hasn't been great, and they do blitz the most in the league, but Minnesota just will let you throw. Like, they will let you throw, and both of the Seattle guys, honestly, um are pretty cheap. Jackson Smith and Ninjigma is 6K. You got DK Metcalf at 5500. DJ Moore going up against the Lions is only 5,700.
00:43:48
Chill
Um, just taking a look here again, Cooper cup is only 65. I know Cooper cup coming off of that amazing, you know, donut game, you know, looking like a Murray Cooper out there. Um, uh, again, Drake London is 6,400. Brian Thomas Jr. Still feels under priced at his, at his price, um, going up against his Raiders team who can't stop anybody. Um,
00:44:15
Chill
Again here kind of looking up here at the top like you got Jamar chase at 8500. I don't know if you'll need them like Comparatively speaking like these other guys at these lower values can kind of get there too like and they're in good matchups Keenan Allen is probably under priced as well um Keenan Allen's only about 5,300 so
00:44:41
Sully Shaheed
You know what makes, you know what makes picking receivers on Fando easy this week? Chill. Cause we have the night game.
00:44:50
Sully Shaheed
I get to play Mike Evans, bro. So that's one receiver spot.
00:44:57
Sully Shaheed
That's got a black spot. Like just waiting for him to be inserted in the lineup, sir.
00:45:02
Sully Shaheed
He only needs 88. What is the 88 or 85 yards throughout the rest of the next three games to hit his thousand.
00:45:08
Sully Shaheed
You know, who's going to get that? Mike Evans.
00:45:11
Chill
If I'm playing on Fandel this week, I'm playing a Baker double with TD lamb like my day don't start until eight.
00:45:18
Sully Shaheed
Guess what, Joe?
00:45:20
Sully Shaheed
My day don't start till eight.
00:45:22
Chill
Okay. Okay. We're on the same page there. I don't know how much like Jalen McMillan is over there, but he's part of the double.
00:45:32
Sully Shaheed
He is very inexpensive, I can tell you right now.
00:45:34
Chill
Oh, perfect. That's chalk McMillan probably.
00:45:39
Sully Shaheed
Jaylen McMillan is 5,800 on FanDuel.
00:45:44
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, yeah, basically.
00:45:46
Sully Shaheed
um In the for a cheapie, in the Carolina Arizona game, how do we feel about Jalen snorting the coca? Over 100 yards last week, even though you know, 90% of it was on the 80 plus yard touchdown, but still, Adam Teeland didn't get there last week. I mean, he sort of did five for 58. They didn't kill you. But you know, Panthers guy, someone's got to get there, right? On the cheap end.
00:46:16
Sully Shaheed
just throwing just throwing a couple names out there for you. Just throwing a couple names out there for you.
00:46:23
Baker
I mean, I wouldn't mind just going back to Adam Beelan, honestly.
00:46:26
Sully Shaheed
I kind of feel the same way to be honest. I still like Adam Thalen this week. So I can see that for a cheap option for sure. Again, it there's not a lot of um situations that opened up at Y receiver. That's kind of what makes this week a little more difficult for me.
00:46:44
Baker
You know who I don't like as a cheap option at Y receiver?
00:46:47
Chill
Marvin Harrison Jr.
00:46:52
Chill
Baker, I think I might have to play a Your Ex lineup.
00:46:56
Baker
Hey, burn your money, give it to me, that's fine.
00:46:59
Sully Shaheed
Hey, listen, he did say that he is gonna get Trey McBride in the end zone. So he he did say that.
00:47:05
Baker
i like That's the only cardinal that you can play.
00:47:09
Baker
Or I'm sorry, that's like, I'm sorry, that's not the only cardinal you can play.
00:47:10
Chill
You better put some respect.
00:47:12
Baker
James Conner and, James Conner and Trey McBride are the only cardinals that you should be playing.
00:47:12
Chill
Better put some respect on JC.
00:47:17
Baker
Those are the only two. You play anybody else, don't do it. I'm telling you right now, don't do it.
00:47:22
Chill
I mean, I can always see you always see how it sims, but I could play Kyler Murray with James Connor and Trey McBride.
00:47:30
Baker
I mean, hell, you want to play the Cardinals, play James Connor and Trey McBride and walk the fuck away.
00:47:36
Baker
You got a little mini Cardinal stack. That's you stacking the Cardinals right there.
00:47:41
Chill
But going to need that. We'll need to have 404 from your ex. yeah
00:47:47
Baker
Man, that boy ain't going 400 yards in his last like three games combined.
00:47:51
Chill
it probably He probably needs more than three bake.
00:47:58
Sully Shaheed
Baker just because you're so bitter. You know what? I might, uh, I might shoot her a call. I'm not gonna lie.
00:48:09
Sully Shaheed
Actually, you know, um I might, I might shoot her a text like, Hey, you up? See if she responds.
00:48:16
Baker
and And here's the thing. She gonna respond to you saying, yeah, I'm up. And she gonna come over with that steak ass. And you gonna be disappointed, bruh.
00:48:28
Chill
Um, I think, um, and I think too, I think with Aidan O'Connell back, I think Joe Coby Meyers is probably a good value at 5,800.
00:48:28
Baker
I'm trying to warn you. Mootenham saying, y'all do you. But when she come over with that steak ass, just know, I told y'all first.
00:48:48
Baker
It's hard to get into that game with a total of 39.
00:48:52
Chill
It's about the over.
00:48:57
Sully Shaheed
straight up. You heard it here first. Chills hot bet.
00:49:00
Sully Shaheed
Bet of the week.
00:49:01
Sully Shaheed
Bet the over.
00:49:04
Sully Shaheed
Alright, let's smack up tight end real quick because we never spend any time on this position anyway. So, um we already mentioned Trey McBride Brock Bowers gets AOC back
Tight End Picks: McBride and Strange
00:49:16
Sully Shaheed
Uh you know, Smith continues to be on a a bender at the tight end position. So, but honestly, you know, again, I like Jared Goff this week. um I might go back. I might go to San loport ah Uh, one of my, you know, mid range price tight end plays.
00:49:32
Sully Shaheed
And then, um, what's, uh, what was our boy?
00:49:35
Sully Shaheed
Uh, Brent, we got, we got Britain strains for some change on the, on the, on the, on the slate.
00:49:38
Chill
say listen, listen, this come join all of us at probably 30% ownership on Dr.
00:49:47
Chill
He's 30, he's 3,500. Let's come on down.
00:49:51
Sully Shaheed
I mean, all those targets don't lie, bro. All those targets don't lie. I mean, I don't wanna play Britain Strange. I don't wanna play Chalky Britain Strange, but you know what?
00:50:04
Chill
You needed him last week?
00:50:06
Sully Shaheed
He had 11 catches on 14 targets.
00:50:10
Sully Shaheed
Like, come on. Who throws their tight end that much?
00:50:15
Chill
That's return of...
00:50:16
Baker
Kyla Murray, Kyla Murray does.
00:50:18
Chill
I think that's Baker saying he wants to play Kyler Murray.
00:50:21
Baker
No, no, no, absolutely not.
00:50:25
Chill
yeah Baker, if I would have got you for the Secret Santa, I would have got you a Kyler jersey. Damn it.
00:50:34
Baker
Thank thank you, thank you guys you didn't.
00:50:35
Chill
A little bit perfect.
00:50:38
Baker
And I'm done shopping for my Seeker Santa shit.
00:50:41
Sully Shaheed
I think you would look nice in a Kyler Murray Jersey breaker.
00:50:43
Chill
Yeah, man, I think that red, that that red would exfoliate your eyes, your skin tone.
00:50:44
Baker
I would. no no ex exfoliate my eyes that's because you are both diabolical haters and i hate you both it's not i look great in lime green too as you can see right now looks fantastic
00:50:50
Chill
The Cardinals red. The Cardinals red.
00:50:53
Sully Shaheed
The Cardinals red, man. I kind of agree to chill on this one.
00:50:57
Chill
Yeah, I think it could be your color.
00:51:05
Chill
i think I think it's your color. You look good in purple. I think you look good in cardinal red.
00:51:13
Chill
Yeah, but you're not a Seahawks fan. You're you're ah you're you're the other bird fan.
00:51:18
Sully Shaheed
Yes, I'm the residency Hawks fan around here. Baker will be trying to steal my thunder. Okay.
00:51:23
Baker
His thing I, I, I, I, I am saying raid plevvi and plavage or whatever fuck word I'm trying to say here. That's what I do. I bark like a dumbass. This is my teams.
00:51:41
Sully Shaheed
All I know is that ah the tight end position is going to be another weird one. But like, like we saw last week on the slate, paying down is definitely a viable option. So I think, yeah, you meet me and 30% of the field, you're gonna be doing something strange for some change. Just say it.
00:52:01
Chill
I mean, we already mentioned him um you got McBride, you got Bowers. If you don't want to play in the ownership on those two, nobody's playing George Kittle. um Miami got nuked by Brock Bowers a couple of weeks ago, so let's not like let that slip our minds. um Again, this this game, I believe, is at Miami. So um I do like George Kittle this week as well. As long as they don't have teammates not wanting to play in the third quarter, they should be OK.
00:52:31
Chill
Um, I'm done, coach. Wow. Peace.
00:52:36
Sully Shaheed
Can I, can I interest you guys in this being the sneaky shootout of the slate?
00:52:42
Sully Shaheed
Can I, can I quietly convince you guys that this is going to be the shoot out of the slate?
00:52:46
Chill
The 49ers dolphins game.
00:52:48
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Yeah. Can I convince you of that?
00:52:50
Chill
I, I, you can write, you could draw me a scenario where it is.
00:52:55
Sully Shaheed
I mean, we all know that if this game was in San Francisco, I would paint a completely different picture, but we all know that to a, continues to perform when he's at home. If they want to push the pace of this game, we've seen that San Francisco can fight back. I think everybody got burned by Juwan Jennings a couple of weeks ago when he was on the main slate. We saw them on Thursday in the rain, not be able to produce anything. So I think this is one of those sneaky spots where you can get a, let's say a George Kittle in there with Juwan Jennings and maybe even Brock Purdy, even though we didn't mention him in the quarterback section. But I think that could be a little sneaky.
00:53:28
Sully Shaheed
run it back with, guess what? Tyreek Hill, especially Jalen Waddle is hurt now. So it's like, this could be one of those games at like, no one's playing this game. Let's let's be honest with ourselves. No one's playing this game. So again, I liked Juno, but I also like Kittle as well. We saw last time Kittle actually had a decent, at decent game. He went over a hundred yards. So it's like, could I see this scenario, especially in Miami?
00:53:56
Sully Shaheed
Yes, is it likely um like more likely to happen in these unlike these other games? Maybe but at the same time again, if you think about ownership This no one's gonna play this game in any capacity It hits It hits so I don't know
00:54:09
Chill
I made from an ownership.
00:54:15
Chill
I mean, it does. It makes sense um to kind of wrap up here on tight ends. I don't mind T.J. Hawkinson at forty eight hundred. um I mean, this he becomes super intriguing. Kyle Pitts, question mark.
00:54:40
Chill
He's with the new quarterback, Bake.
00:54:41
Baker
No, I'll play Kyler Murray before I play Kyle Pitts.
00:54:48
Sully Shaheed
oh He said it. He said it. He said Cower Murray.
00:54:54
Chill
Now listen, look how quick this man was to go back to his hate against Kyle Pitts. Like his boy didn't fuck up Kyle Pitts this season, because he was ass.
00:55:05
Baker
First of all, my boy, he'd stay he he he brought back Darnell Mooney to being a thing. He didn't fuck up, he didn't he didn't fuck up Drake London season.
00:55:10
Chill
Yeah. He fucked up. He fucked up Kyle Pitts.
00:55:15
Baker
But somehow he fucked up Kyle Pitts. No, Kyle Pitts fucked up Kyle Pitts when Kyle Pitts decided to be Kyle Pitts.
00:55:17
Chill
Yeah. Nah. Play Kyle Pitts this week. Bet the prop.
00:55:22
Baker
Absolutely not. No.
00:55:24
Chill
yeah Rookie quarterback.
00:55:25
Sully Shaheed
his receiving props, probably like 15 yards, dude, like Baker.
00:55:28
Baker
And I feel like the Under.
00:55:31
Chill
What's Kyle Pitts? Two touchdowns.
00:55:33
Baker
Absolutely not! I will lock in Kyle and Murray before I play one lineup with Kyle Pitts.
00:55:38
Chill
it despite the Listen, we just like we we'll watch Mark Andrews cook these boys.
00:55:46
Sully Shaheed
Didn't we literally have this discussion like two hours ago when I first stopped over it? Like the biggest, Busted in that first round. Kedarius, Tony, or Cowpits. And I literally took Cowpits.
00:55:58
Chill
Kyle Pitts was drafted higher, expected way more so far, so I would agree.
00:56:01
Sully Shaheed
I guess in Kedarius, Tony has Super Bowl rings.
00:56:03
Baker
He got taken over Jamar Chase, bro.
00:56:09
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Imagine.
00:56:09
Chill
Yeah, could you imagine that Atlanta would've had Jamar Chase?
00:56:22
Chill
Hey, wouldn't it be funny if the Bengals don't pay Jamar Chase and he winds up on the Vikings? Vikings ain't paying no quarterback.
00:56:34
Sully Shaheed
Do you want...
00:56:35
Chill
I'm just saying that's that's an interesting scenario that I'm just going to toss out there.
00:56:38
Baker
And in that case they trading for Joe Burrow too and just taking it back to LSU just in Minnesota They figured out It's like Jordan Addison you're going to Cincinnati
00:56:43
Chill
They couldn't afford a borough with both wide receivers.
00:56:49
Sully Shaheed
if i If I was Jordan Addison, I'd be pissed. He's like, what did I do? What the fuck?
00:56:58
Chill
and Jordan Anderson would just be at the three.
00:57:03
Sully Shaheed
Then T.J. Hopkinson would be pissed.
00:57:06
Chill
I think TJ Hawkins said to be like, you know what? This is the most open I'm ever going to be in my life.
00:57:11
Baker
And he's gonna be the most open getting the least amount of targets He would get three targets again yeah I mean he would be he would 100% just be wide the fuck open.
00:57:14
Chill
He's still going to be open. He'll still get the ball.
00:57:16
Sully Shaheed
It's not wrong.
00:57:20
Chill
Yeah, probably have three targets for 60 yards and a touch. Like, let's be real. It's going to be wide open.
00:57:31
Baker
You're not wrong I Stopped caring about this position a long time ago
00:57:33
Sully Shaheed
bigger did I miss anybody at outside in all right fine I just okay I'm
00:57:39
Chill
baker's pick Baker's pick would be Dr. Strange. That's who he's playing.
00:57:44
Chill
He's playing Dr. Strange.
00:57:46
Sully Shaheed
cool with that defense ah whatever fits like we do every week
00:57:56
Baker
Sure Here Carolina that's an even said I want to play
00:58:01
Sully Shaheed
Well, Baker, you did hit with um the Broncos defense because you know they got it to take a pick six on a throwback pass or fumble, whatever.
00:58:07
Chill
Uh-uh, it was not a pick six. That was a fumble. i
00:58:11
Sully Shaheed
They scored a defensive touchdown because of a throwback and whatever they were trying to bring up at their playbook, like that was probably the dumbest play or one of the worst plays I've seen in a very long time.
00:58:22
Chill
The only other plate at the top, it would have been Jonathan Taylor dropping the ball at the one.
00:58:31
Baker
So and that's not even like a Jonathan Taylor thing. It was just like he just.
00:58:38
Chill
Um, I mean, I guess if you want to pay down at defense and you want to say Mac Jones is terrible and you want to play the Raiders, you can play the Raiders. Raiders defense didn't look half bad, but like it's Kirk cousins that bad.
00:58:52
Chill
I guess it's kind of what you have to distinguish. Um, and let's not forget Mac Jones just playing for like, you know, you know, a second chance in the NFL. So, um,
00:59:03
Baker
He's playing for a second chance to be a backup because his dark days are done.
00:59:07
Chill
Everybody thought Sam Darnold's and Baker Mayfield's days were done, Baker. Sam Darnold about to make $40 million. dollars
00:59:17
Sully Shaheed
I always believed in Baker Mayfield, by the way, so I was not in that camp.
00:59:20
Chill
I'm not, I, I hate it on Baker Mayfield, so I gotta, I was wrong. So I was always a Sam Darnold guy. I don't think I'm right still on Sam Darnold.
00:59:32
Sully Shaheed
You're right on Sam Darnold with the Vikings.
00:59:37
Sully Shaheed
Because you get to throw to Justin Jefferson.
00:59:39
Chill
Well, it's like that offense is just built for quarterbacks.
00:59:43
Baker
I mean, throwing a Justin Jefferson makes your life a hell of a lot easier.
00:59:47
Chill
Kevin O'Connell is a good coach. I think he's kind of underrated. But um I don't mind the Bengals defense.
00:59:54
Baker
Definitely don't mind though, because DTR is trash.
00:59:54
Chill
It's scary. I mean, like they scored 20 points last week, I think, for as bad as they are.
01:00:04
Baker
And they'll score 15 points this week because DTR is trash.
01:00:10
Sully Shaheed
God, that defense just sucks. oh
Raiders' Defense: A Strategic Play?
01:00:12
Sully Shaheed
my god like I want to play a DFS defense. It's like really bad at playing defense. It just doesn't compute. Whatever. Anyway.
01:00:24
Chill
um I don't mind the cold steve defense either against Rudolph.
01:00:31
Sully Shaheed
And we got the Falcons defense, which will probably be the chalk against Julyck.
01:00:38
Baker
I mean, I think Buffalo's defense should be talked about more.
01:00:44
Sully Shaheed
you Yo, Drake May is kind of a baller though.
01:00:47
Sully Shaheed
Like, he's kind of a baller. I'm not gonna lie.
01:00:49
Baker
I mean, drag but here's the thing. Drake May's going to put that thing in in some dicey positions.
01:00:56
Chill
I think I think Buffalo's defense can end up being the chalk and wouldn't really because like at 3600 they're not really priced like incredibly high You know only the only the Falcons defense is priced higher so you want to save $100 and play the bills
01:00:57
Sully Shaheed
Bring up a good point.
01:01:14
Sully Shaheed
The Bill's defense is the most expensive on Fandul and the Falcons will guarantee to be the chalk on Fandul because they are 4,000. Yeah, because the Falcons defense isn't good either, but they are in the nut matchup.
01:01:30
Chill
um If you if you If you think um If you want to go on the narrative that Bryce Young's that the Bryce Young ah Renaissance is done you can play the Cardinals defense James Connor is not gonna let that happen
01:01:30
Baker
Yeah, yes, it's time to play some Tim Boyle. Let's go Or you can go on the renaissance that Kyler Murray sucks and play Carolina's defense
01:01:57
Baker
You can go on the fact that Tyler Murray sucks. Terrible.
01:02:03
Chill
beggar He would look good in the carnal's red.
01:02:06
Baker
I would look terrible on Cardinals Red. and i look very
01:02:08
Sully Shaheed
you sound like you
Baker's QB Grudges and Defensive Picks
01:02:09
Sully Shaheed
You sound like that bitter ex that's going to your Instagram and posting all these nasty things about the relationship y'all had. You just sound bitter, Baker.
01:02:18
Sully Shaheed
That's what you sound like right now.
01:02:19
Chill
You're the axe that tacks back later, like, oh, you're Dick Small. but that that's That's who you sound like.
01:02:39
Sully Shaheed
OK, all right.
01:02:43
Sully Shaheed
On on that note, ah let's go ahead and finish it up for the night.
01:02:49
Sully Shaheed
um Guys, you got to tell me about your favorite stack entering sunday entering Wednesday night. I know a lot can change for the slate that's coming up, but at this early look, what's bigger?
01:03:01
Sully Shaheed
Bigger what you feeling? And I know it's not Kyler and the boys, OK? Favorite stack, what do you got?
01:03:06
Baker
ah gotta read I breathe. I gotta breathe. That wasn't, that was funny as fuck. Uh, Caleb Williams, DJ Moore, and running it back with, uh, Jameer Gibbs and, uh, Samuel L. Laporta.
01:03:24
Sully Shaheed
Spicy, spicy. Jill, what you got, man?
01:03:28
Chill
i Like the bear stuff like Baker mentioned um Other stacks that you like um i I do think I'm gonna be on the jag stuff this week um I do like I do like the jag stuff um I didn't really talk about it enough, but I kind of think Gino doubles are really intriguing ah when Gino doubles hit they hit and
01:03:53
Chill
And they hit for a lot in like, again, like Minnesota's past defense, like they let you throw the football.
01:04:00
Chill
Um, maybe not the greatest game environment, but kind of like you mentioned with that, um, 49ers Miami game, like, I don't think a lot of people are going to be playing a lot of people from this Minnesota Seattle game.
01:04:13
Chill
Um, so I think Gino doubles, if you kind of want to go super contrarian, I think those are going to be kind of alive this week.
01:04:23
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I like those takes. um On Fandul, it's the Baker Mayfield stuff. Since you got access to the night game, Jalen Millan, Mike Evans, Baker Mayfield, run it back with you know whoever you want, just give me the Baker double. And on DraftKings, I'm really convincing myself of the San Francisco stuff. um Give me Purdy, give me Kittle, give me Juwan Jennings on a bounce back, run it back with Tyreek, be completely unique and off the board.
01:04:49
Sully Shaheed
and Play the sharp running backs and then kind of fill in your line up from there. so
01:04:55
Chill
Yeah, the only thing that's weird about that game is like Miami's defense is kind of respectable. that like That's the only weird part.
01:05:04
Sully Shaheed
You preface it with kind of.
01:05:07
Chill
like like theyre they're like They're really good against the pass. They don't allow a lot of passing touchdowns. So like that's kind of why I just kiddo as the tight end there. but like Could I see a game where this where that game is like 40 to 40 or high scoring? Because of both coaches, yeah, I can.
01:05:31
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Well, that's, that's what I'm going to go with on our early look in this DFS slate. Thanks for joining us tonight. It's been a blast and a pleasure to hang out with my pupils and obviously my, my one person in that room right over, right over there in my, in my makeshift studio over here for the night. So for, for chill for Baker, I've been your boy. So Alicia heat, don't forget to hit that like and subscribe on the way out. And we're going to get in close up the shop and we'll see you all at the top.
01:06:00
Sully Shaheed
Thanks for listening.
