Introduction and Week 17 Preview
00:00:01
Speaker
Week 17 is upon us. We're entering our final descent into the main slate on Sunday. A lot of moving parts with injuries, narratives, records, MVP, shuffling about, but we're gonna break it all down here tonight on the DFS Deli. So pull up a chair, grab your favorite adult beverage, and welcome in. It's the DFS Deli.
00:00:39
Speaker
And welcome in to the DFS deli. I, of course, am the proprietor of this delicatessen, Salih Ali Shahid. And tonight, fresh back from PTO, we got Baker, this is taco.
00:00:52
Speaker
in the building along with, of course, my main man, Chill, on my left-hand side. Guys, welcome to the week 17 main slate. We've got a lot to talk about. We'll get into, of course, our favorite plays, contrarian plays, kind of look at the slate as a whole, of course, get our final thoughts here as we enter Sunday. We've got a night game tonight with the playoff implications, could be seeding implications, but the newly crowned North champions, Detroit Lions, face the
Baker's Investment in the Game
00:01:20
Speaker
You know, them, them boys, I guess. So, uh, you know, but that's not on the main slate. We don't really care about that, but there's football tonight. So it's a blessing. We get to talk football. We get to watch some football. It'll be, it'll be a nice little Saturday night, but, uh, I'm glad to have you guys here. Baker, how, how, how is everything going? Have you been welcome back to work?
00:01:40
Speaker
I mean, we've been on the road. We've been out here grinding. Just got back from Houston, staying in a luxurious five-star hotel. They put me up in, so. Ooh, luxurious. Ooh. I mean, legitimately, this place was sick. I'll have to tell you the name of it so you can look it up, but it was kind of sick. Not even going to lie. But I'm
DFS Strategies and Secret Plays
00:02:01
Speaker
glad to be back. I actually have implications in tonight's game. My biggest dollar yearly league. We got C.D. Lam going tonight for me, so hopefully he breaks the slate.
00:02:11
Speaker
I'm hoping for like 205 from him, so I can just rest easy. Oh, 205. Oh, okay. All right. Yeah, no big deal. I'm not asking for a lot. We're never asking for a lot. I'm not asking for a lot. All right. I mean, we're good. We're glad to be back. Tried to get in a few times on the road. You basically said, fuck you to me. And, uh, yeah. Sorry, man. We got, we got to work, bro. Now, gotta, I took Christmas off. It took that week off, but, uh, we had to get back at it, man. Sorry.
00:02:41
Speaker
Sorry. So, what's going on, man? Welcome. Oh, not much. Just getting ready to talk, you know, the secret menu and getting ready to dive on in. Yeah, man. The secret menu. You know how we do contrarian plays, of course, to get you to the top of your tournament leaderboards.
Quarterback Strategies: Chalk or Creative?
00:02:59
Speaker
And of course, we're going to go position by position and break it down.
00:03:03
Speaker
I'm gonna let Jesus take the wheel because I don't really have too many hot takes for tomorrow. But I'm gonna still try to keep the grill lit and keep it spicy as best as I can. So quarterbacks, we'll start off and I guess we should start with.
00:03:21
Speaker
Just wish to start with the chalk and see if you guys dislike any of these plays. If you're still gonna load them up or you're gonna go somewhere else. So this is strictly what I'm looking at is gonna be DK ownership for the most part. Look at Yahoo ownership.
00:03:37
Speaker
Y'all actually four for four doesn't project Yahoo ownership. It only does it for Fandula. I can, I can give you Yahoo. I don't need it, bro. I don't need it. I'm just going to load up when I'm going to load up and just bink everything. So it doesn't matter what I have to say about Yahoo, what I do have to say about it for the rest of the night. Just letting you know.
00:03:55
Speaker
Yeah, is that a f off and dual never coming back. Go screw yourselves. And it's DraftKings and Yahoo for the rest of the year. Oh, and underdog, of course, because underdogs and shit. But anyway, kind of looking at some of the chalkier plays here and tell me if I'm wrong. At the top of the charts looks like everybody's going to go back to Brock Purdy. Even after that miserable performance he had against the Ravens, but he does draw the nut matchup against the commanders.
00:04:19
Speaker
people are going to play the hurt business because of this Cardinals matchup. And it looks like a lot of people are going to play down even though Tyrod Taylor does have this hamstring injury that he developed on Thursday, he might be able to go so he should be all good. And it looks like what I thought wasn't going to happen but Chile and IU and I talked about it a little bit. The ownership on CJ Stroud kind of came up, at least according to what I'm looking at. So
00:04:43
Speaker
Do you like any of these guys?
Quarterback Picks for Week 17
00:04:45
Speaker
Or are we gonna look to get kind of off the reservation a little bit? Baker, I'll start with you. Well, first and foremost, Pat Mahomes on Yahoo is projecting as the highest-owned quarterback. Just so you know, that's for you. Just for you, Sully. Well, that means I'm gonna fade him. I'm not playing Chalky Patrick Mahomes. I'm just not doing it. Sorry. He's projecting at 10%, okay? That's not Chalky.
00:05:09
Speaker
But it's owned, though. I want my one percenters, man. I mean, my one percent, Will Levis. I think it's like that. You might use Taylor Heineck, you know, some Jake Browning. The fuck's going on with you? I'm not playing Jake Browning. But I mean, one of my favorite plays for tomorrow is somebody who on Wednesday you guys mentioned and you thought he might be a little bit more popular because of the matchup. But he's not coming in with much ownership. It's Derek Carr.
00:05:41
Speaker
And it's one, it's 1000. I understand you guys have burnt so much money on Derek. I get it. I promise you, I get it. It's a thousand percent. The matchup I get, they showed up last week versus Jacksonville. Um, I was personally on Trevor Lawrence obviously didn't work out for me. No, God, I had to thank God. I had some Joe Flacco teams in there as well. Uh, but yeah, I'm going back to the matchup just cause it didn't work out last week.
00:06:05
Speaker
The Saints aren't efficient at running the ball, so if they're going to score at all, it's going to come through the air. And on top of that, the Saints need this game. This is a must-win game for them, so I feel like they need to be pedal to the metal. And I'm saying to quote the industry, this has the sneakiest shootout in my humble opinion.
00:06:25
Speaker
on the slate of the sneaky games. So yeah, the bucks are winning. Sorry. I mean, that's fine. I mean, I'm not putting any hard American dollars on that game. So I don't give a damn who wins. I care because I said the bucks were in that division. I didn't get to lock it up tomorrow. So that's gonna cast that in real quick. Haha. That's so disturbing that they've actually been halfway decent this year.
NFL Comeback Player Debate
00:06:51
Speaker
Suck it. Baker Mayfield will come back player of the year. If it wasn't for Joe freaking Flacco. Yeah, Joe Flacco's come back player of the year. Like, I heard Joe talk about that on Wednesday too. It's Demar Hamlin, guys. Like, that's bullshit. That is Demar Hamlin. Like, why are you ignoring the fact that it's going to Demar Hamlin? It's such bullshit. And it's such great press for the NFL. It is great press. Such great press.
00:07:16
Speaker
They got their press at the ESPYs last year when, you know, the medical team for Buffalo was awarded blah, blah, blah, because they saved the man's life. He made the same award as Caitlyn Jenner, you know, the year that the girl had like a heart attack running the bases should have won it. But no, let's give it to Caitlyn Jenner. Because that was that was heroic. Did they really give it to Caitlyn Jenner or her? Really? Absolutely. They gave the other girl some other award. They were like, Caitlyn Jenner, this is heroic. You came out.
00:07:44
Speaker
This is, you're brave. Oh man. That's absolutely hilarious. But Joe flies crazy. Did Baker, did you get any awards when you came out? That's weird. I didn't hear about that. I haven't come out yet. So that's why I haven't gotten the word yet. My ass nevermind. Nevermind. I mean,
00:08:09
Speaker
Never mind, I'm not going to say the jokes that are coming in my head. I know what you're thinking, so it's OK. It's going to get us fucking canceled. It's going to be like Nick Cannon out here getting us fucking canceled. But back to my quarterback takes, the chalk is the chalk when it comes to quarterbacks. I don't mind Brock Purdy. He's gotten to a price where he's not just an automatic play, though, in my opinion.
Running Back and Wide Receiver Strategy
00:08:32
Speaker
Being at $7K, I think it's $303K. He's not the auto play here.
00:08:40
Speaker
He was so easy to play early in the season when he was still 5K, when he was still 6K, it took them forever to get his price up here. Case in point, we're in week 17 and his price is just now getting up here, but last week. I don't think it's high enough in this matchup. I mean, I could agree with that too. Not on DraftKings, not on DraftKings. Just like McCaffrey's not high enough either.
00:09:01
Speaker
Christian McCaffrey is not high enough. FanDuel, even though Sully, you've iced it out. They've gotten it right for a long time. They've had him over 10K damn near all year. He's up to 11K now. DraftKings, what are y'all doing? Like, what are we doing here, DraftKings? Y'all making it easy. He'll cost you a cool, he'll cost you a cool 46 bucks on Yahoo. Almost what, a fourth of your salary? A fourth of the salary, and you know it, it's worth it.
00:09:28
Speaker
It's 100% worth it. He doesn't even cost me a fifth of my salary on DK. That's just dumb. Yeah, but you got to realize that even on Yahoo, like I said with when I was talking with the chill, there's like, we got Zameel White at the men on Yahoo. So I mean, auto plug. It was CH, but if Isaiah Pacheco is cleared, it is what it is. But we had CH at the men. We got men price quarterbacks, Jared Stidham, Tyrod Taylor. They're all the men.
00:09:57
Speaker
Playing CMC over on Yahoo is way more palatable than it is on FanDuel. And on DraftKings, it's probably an auto play for the most part. Like you're probably deciding between, and we're not running backs yet, but we might as well get into the discussion because we're trying to fit in quarterbacks. But you're probably at a realm where you're like, okay, am I deciding between Kyron and CMC?
00:10:20
Speaker
And then if you're loading up CMC, are you taking along like Tyreek Hill or are you taking along Travis Kelsey whose price is reduced but probably still not low enough per se for his production? So like if we're loading up CMC and a top flight quarterback, who are we leaving out is the real question. But I guess we'll get into that when we discuss that. So, Chill, I kind of want to kick it to you about the lower price quarterbacks.
00:10:44
Speaker
there's back up so plenty tomorrow. So if we're going to fit in these guys at the position place, who's who's playing quarterback for you tomorrow? Oh, OK. Well, not not not exactly like a backup cheap quarterback per se, but Baker Mayfield still going unowned. So we're in the same game here, Joe, just on different side. I'll take I'll take both of them. Truthfully, I can burn money on Derek Carr tomorrow. That's fine. I don't think Stidham is coming in with no ownership. If you
00:11:14
Speaker
Not, maybe not none. It's kind of low. Like I got it at, I got it at six. Sully, I'm with you. I'm with you on Jared Stinnam tomorrow. We're playing some Jared Stinnam. We're all playing some Jared Stinnam tomorrow. And I mean, like, I know it's gross and this dude is absolutely the worst road quarterback in the league, but like AOC, I understand the Raiders are a run first team, but like I did see this dude torch the chargers. Like I'm not going to act like the Colts have a good defense. I understand there'll be at Indianapolis, but
Division Wins and Playoff Scenarios
00:11:43
Speaker
like,
00:11:44
Speaker
That would be my absolute puke quarterback this week. But those would be the three that I'm kind of looking at. I don't think I could really be convinced otherwise. I think the two guys at the top make a ton of sense if you want to play Hertz or Purdy. Just good luck, especially on FanDuel, good luck trying to jam in shit with either one of them. You could maybe sell me on Stafford.
00:12:11
Speaker
If you want to get different, I think I can, I can dig a little mess. I can do a little pet staffer. Nobody's playing Matt Stanford and draft Kings. He's 6,600.
00:12:26
Speaker
I just don't see the upside with Stafford. I mean, we got this West coast team, blah, blah, blah traveling East. I don't know what the weather's going to be like in New York, but whatever. I, I don't know if I see like the up upside of Matt Stafford and we declined this Matt Stafford wall before, man. Where's the 303 coming from? I don't know. So I get it. But like, again, that's just, it's an easy plug and an easy matchup.
00:12:51
Speaker
And it makes you different because I have to check the wide receivers here in a second, but it makes you different. So here's my here's my question to you guys. Why don't we do something crazy tomorrow? I mean, like, because this is what we're here for. We're talking about the crazy plays, of course. But outside looking in for two awards, actually, is to a ton of my lower.
00:13:13
Speaker
I mean, I get it. We're not going to get the crazy shootout we got with the Ravens dolphins from last year, but no one's playing to a, but everyone wants to, not everyone, but like Tyree kill might come at modest ownership, but like you don't even have to double stack them because there's no water tomorrow. So we're expecting a game where again, you want to talk about must wins. The dolphins have to win this game.
00:13:36
Speaker
to scave off the bills into division. They don't have to win. They just got to beat Buffalo next week, Chill. Buffalo's going to beat the shit out of the Dolphins, just like they did earlier in the year. So put your fandom aside. Put your fandom aside. I mean, the last time they played at, the last time they played at Miami, they beat Buffalo. I just want to say, I just want to say, the last time they played at Miami, Miami beat them. I don't want to hear it. Last time we played this season. It was in Buffalo.
00:14:05
Speaker
where it was. Buffalo lost their playoff game in Buffalo last year. They can lose at home. Who cares? He lost to Joe Burrow. That's different. I'll take Joe Burrow over to him. I'll take over Jamar Shay. Yeah, I would. Yeah, I would. Yeah, I would. But anyway, I'm talking about, I don't know. Not to mention if Miami has to, they probably beat Buffalo in Buffalo. It almost went with Skylar Thompson. Almost. Only counting wishes and anger dates.
00:14:33
Speaker
They didn't want Buffalo has to worry about the Patriots. No, I'm talking about this stack right now in week 17 where the Dolphins can lock up the division if they win. This is a must win because you don't want that. It's a must win for the one seed. It's a month. Yeah, especially especially the division's irrelevant, especially if you want the one seed, especially if you want the one seed, they need it for the one seed.
00:15:00
Speaker
Yeah, absolutely. So you want to make sure you want to say that to a ton of my lower isn't going to come out here and sling that mother and pill around the war around the yard. I mean, we're talking about Tyreke Hill has an outside chance of breaking 2000 yards. He needs like what 170 something over the next two games. And if anybody can go nuclear, it's Tyreke Hill. So why would I not bring along to a ton of my lower at no ownership at all tomorrow? You can't I'm not arguing against it. I'm just saying it's not a must win.
00:15:30
Speaker
I mean, it's about it. You don't want the pressure of going or doing what you have to do. So if they lose tomorrow, the one sees out of the question and it could be the division out of the question. If you win this game tomorrow, I'm saying that Tua has every incentive to lay it on the line. That's all I'm saying. They're going to play. Of course they're going to play. I mean, like, let's not be stupid here. I'm not, I'm not saying that there's a difference between because they have the playoffs locked up. They're in.
00:15:59
Speaker
but you can be in and in. I mean, you can write, but they're still in like Buffalo is in the must win game. I ain't talking about Buffalo chill. I'm just talking about the Miami dolphins versus Baltimore Ravens and a low owned quarterback. I think it's more of a must win for Baltimore than Miami.
00:16:21
Speaker
Not, I mean. Are you kidding me? Lamar Jackson struggles to beat the Steelers. They play the Steelers in week 18. That man's worst career stats are against the Steelers. And the Steelers are going to still be playing for something. Because then you're going to let the Browns win the division. Because the Browns are slapping Cincinnati. I mean, but the Browns won't have to play if the Ravens win. Correct. But if the Ravens lose, Joe Flacco stacks are going to be rolling out in week 18.
00:16:50
Speaker
Well, Joe Flacco stacks are rolling out when we gave team regardless. No, they're not. He's not playing. He wouldn't play. He wouldn't play. No way. There's no way they would play if the Ravens win. Joe Flacco is playing in that game. Joe Flacco is going to take his sleepy ass to bed. Okay. Listen, no brown starter at their injury rate. You're lucky. If you get the second teamers in there,
00:17:17
Speaker
You're right. They might take the whole squad like Cincy. Y'all got it. The practice squad is getting called up. Now that would be an interesting stack.
Quarterback Ownership Trends
00:17:28
Speaker
Someone telling me week 18, David Bell and Cedric Tillman load them up. Got it. All right. Who would be the P.J. Walker, right? Yeah. Ooh. Against Cincy, I would still load that up actually. Who's our third string running back? Strong. You're strong.
00:17:46
Speaker
Pierre strong, load them up. Let's go. Anyway, speaking of week 17, for Christ's sake, giving, giving them the week 18 in advance. Cause I might not be here. Y'all got the week 18 in advance. Cause I might not be here. We'll preview, we'll preview, we'll preview next week and sin of weeks, sit backups week, the craziest week of the season. Mine is week one. I love week 18. God. I love that week. Week 18 is pretty cool.
00:18:11
Speaker
I will admit, but, uh, then anybody that we miss anybody that may be like low ish Ohm that we could feasibly see a ceiling from. Cause like I said, number one would have bullet for me is probably two at the high end, high ish in lower end. It's probably going to be Jared Statham. It looks like for all of us, because I mean, last time we saw Jared Statham, it was last year's game against the 49ers and he cooked.
00:18:34
Speaker
So, um, I'm with it. If you with it, man, just saying, I mean, I have interest just because of the, once again, a matchup type of thing. He hasn't looked good since he returned, but Kyler Murray draws one nut matchup.
00:18:48
Speaker
As far as I know, I haven't seen any, I know he dealt with it. These wide receivers can't get open. They're so bad. That's why you play him with one man and one man only. But you played Philadelphia. You almost have to play him with a wide receiver. No, the fuck you don't. I mean, you got the human, you got the human durch. I mean, come on, man. You got to load them up with a wide receiver. One person and one person only.
00:19:12
Speaker
I think Philly is going to take away Trey McBride. Everybody tries to take away a chalk McBride. You know, he got taken away last week. I don't think he did very well. Yeah, he didn't have a good game. You know who did? Greg Dorch. He had one fucking play. That's all it takes. That's all it takes. One fucking play from that little bastard. Hey, listen, if my if my underpriced wide receiver gets me one reception for 80 yards in a touchdown, that's fine.
00:19:41
Speaker
I agreed. When Rondale Moore was chalk, I didn't hear anybody complaining that his only reception was a 50-yard touchdown against Texans. I mean, I was pissed by that. It was like the second play of the game. Plus, it's like, uh-oh, here comes the explosion, and he's done. And he's done.
00:19:59
Speaker
Remember we had that Justin Watson chalk like two weeks ago and he had the one catch for a touchdown and literally that was it. Yeah. And we were all happy about it. Yeah.
Wide Receiver Stacking Strategies
00:20:07
Speaker
He got there. He was three K like it. Oh yeah. You're not playing any of the any of these Arizona wide receivers but I mean Tyler still running. I think if you want to fit some of this stuff in you're going to have to if you're playing a high price quarterback and CMC
00:20:26
Speaker
you're playing, you're eating 3k chalk somewhere or 3k price somewhere. Michael Wilson will put up a zero for you. Again. Again. I mean, this is why you just played DJ Chuck. We'll get there here in a second. Real quick, what are you guys ownership on Josh Allen?
00:20:49
Speaker
You want me to look on your site on Yahoo? Or do you want me to look at actual draft games? Either way, it's not going to matter because he's right around the price of the hurt business already. And everybody's playing the hurt business, but you want to tell me? It's none. It's none, bro. So no one's playing Josh Allen tomorrow? I get it. I got 8% on your site, Sally. I got 3% on. On Yahoo? On Yahoo. 3% on draft games. Well, the sharpie I'm playing on Yahoo, you have the most casual motherfuckers over there playing on Yahoo.
00:21:18
Speaker
I'm the sharp this week. I'm the chalk. Okay. The deli is invading Yahoo. We got, I got my man chill doing underdog drafts. I've been, I've been killing an underdog this year. This has been nice, man. Come on. We didn't need to branch out. The deli needs to expand. I mean, I heard about your best ball. I'm saying your
00:21:41
Speaker
I'm saying being this close in the best ball street. I was so close, man. I was so close to the finals. Oh man. But, but I mean, it actually is fine because if that team would have got through, you know how many quarterbacks I have? Zero. Because the last quarterback I had was Russell Wilson. Hmm. I mean, why did you not have the foresight to draft? Jared. I'm a hank of my quarterback.
00:22:11
Speaker
That's like all the people that drafted freaking Justin Fields had in tasting Beijing on their team. Okay. Like, go on. Come on. Or every backup ever this year. I mean, literally just draft backups like that. That was the theme of best ball this year. Oh my God, bro. So many injuries and we got more tomorrow. So it is what it is. It's cool. I mean, like I said, I'll support one out for your yearly teams. I saw that ass when you took without with a Mark Cooper on his bench.
00:22:41
Speaker
Hey man, they blew their load the week before. So it is what it is, man. It's cool. That's cool. I mean, I get it. You want to blow your load? I get it. That's in like three hours. But any who, yes, low on Josh Allen stacks. I'm in. Steph Diggs got to break out at some point, right? No, he don't. No, he don't. He's tore up. He's tore up the Patriots in the past. Each of their last four matchups, he's been in the end zone. So just take a step. He ain't got to do shit.
00:23:11
Speaker
Just take a stab. Steph Diggs going off tomorrow. Suck it, Baker. You said the same thing last week. You literally said the exact same thing last week. I will keep saying it until it happens. Just like Gabe Davis. Just like Gabe Davis. Until next year when he has a hot start for the third year in a row and falls off the face of the fucking planet again. Baker, are they winning games? Not because of him. I know. I just think maybe that's all he cares about. He just wants to dub. He doesn't want stats.
00:23:39
Speaker
I mean, they're winning because of the new cook in town. Not last week. Last week, they should have lost. They should have lost. But they didn't so suck it. Anywho. Speaking of cook, we can go to running back. Yeah, man. I mean, we can talk about James Cook now if you want.
Running Back Matchups and Pairings
00:24:00
Speaker
We can. I mean, I'm not playing him, but we can.
00:24:03
Speaker
See, the funny thing is about the running back position is that like these low owned players somehow get squeezed out of nowhere. Like at the beginning of the week, I thought Jonathan Taylor was gonna be like super low owned and now he's like getting to chalk territory. And I'm not about that life. I got him at 12%. I don't really consider that chalk. Earlier in the week, it was like three. I haven't met like fucking 9%.
00:24:26
Speaker
The steam is real. I have 40% on CMC and 34% on Zamir White. I have JT at 8%. So I mean like running back ownership spread out. I think the running back that I mean like I don't know if I'll play out but I probably should like nobody's playing Travis ETM tomorrow. Which is weird because he's in the matchup. And he's at home.
00:24:52
Speaker
right? He's got the nuts. I mean, normally you play running backs against Carolina. That's probably the most intriguing matchup. I mean, in terms of like low ownership, um, I don't know if anybody wants to go back to the Ken Walker. Well, uh, he might not play. Oh, listen, it's Ken Walker playing. I haven't had them ruled out yet. Yeah. He's a game time decision for right now, but they do play at one. I do believe because they're in Pittsburgh. No, no, it's Seattle. Oh, they're in Seattle. I apologize. I thought it was Seattle.
00:25:22
Speaker
moment moment. You are right. I was wrong. Nice. Nice. I wasn't wasn't 100% sure. I didn't believe you. Apologies. I mean, it might be time to light up some Oz X. I mean,
00:25:39
Speaker
If you're not playing CMC with a with a lower owned running back, you're pretty much different, right? And one of them and a lot of my builds or one of my builds, especially with Jake, Jake, Jared Stinnam. Play all the chalk running backs. That makes you different, too. I do want to say that I don't think DeAndre Swift's ownership is high enough. Because one of the things that I actually liked
00:26:07
Speaker
As far as at least from a Jared Stenham line up standpoint is flipping the build everybody's gonna play Zamir white everybody's gonna play Christian McCaffrey well if I play Christian McCaffrey and If I don't play Zamir white play Christian McCaffrey Kyron Williams and DeAndre Swift I have completely flipped the build completely in that aspect and then you're playing DJ shark Greg dorch Little Jordan Humphrey yeah, that's a little Jordan Humphrey
00:26:34
Speaker
Adam Trotman is your tight end. I was able to fit Chuck McBride in that lineup, okay? Thank you very much. I mean, another running back is kind of coming in low, and their offensive line isn't a nut matchup. It would be Rashad White. I mean, you could play Rashad White every fucking week.
00:26:57
Speaker
every week. Mike Evans, Rashad White. Every, every week. I don't, I don't think I'm playing any of the Dolphins guys. I, I could get, I can get the idea behind James Cook. I don't like that game. Jovante Williams. I don't really like, cause I have no idea what they're doing in the backfield for Denver. Neither does Sean Payton. No. True.
00:27:29
Speaker
I mean, Derek Henry, he's just got a good run defense. I don't think I can really get behind that idea. Last time they played a few weeks ago, Derek Henry put up like two points. You're not wrong. Um, it's not, it's not the himber anymore. Sorry. I mean, he got there last week. He had a pass again, Russia touchdown. He was I, I mean, when he plays for the Cowboys next year, he'll say we'll have a resurgence. So
00:27:57
Speaker
We'll see. Please don't let that happen. Um, can I interest you guys in, uh, even though the run defense is pretty darn good, they've been pretty stellar the entire year, but for some reason he always gets there. How about James Connor? He does get there. Even a bad dude just somehow gets there. Every time you look up Arizona scores, it's him. I can't, I can't do it against Philly.
00:28:19
Speaker
Don't be scared, bro. I mean, I'm not going to do it either. I'm not. I just not. There's one Arizona Cardinal I'm playing tomorrow. One. You just, you just tried to sell me on Kyler Murray, not but 10 minutes ago. What the fuck? Well, okay. There's one Arizona Cardinal I'm guaranteed to play tomorrow. All right. All right. Guaranteed to play tomorrow. We're on the tape, bro.
00:28:46
Speaker
Tyler, he's in my thought process, but I'm guaranteed to play Chuck McBride tomorrow. I feel like Kyren's ownership could be a little bit lower when it's all said and done. You can definitely get squeezed in this situation. I mean, in the wrong way. It's not bad now, but a little interesting.
00:29:05
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, I really, I just like to, I'm really sold on the Travis ETN call. I mean, like they are down their starting quarterback. So I mean, they're not going to let CJ better fling around the yard, right? So they're going to have to rely on this running game. So Travis ETN is probably in a better spot now, now that Trevor Lawrence is out. So I could definitely get behind trying to load up as much Travis ETN as possible tomorrow.
Chiefs' Offensive Analysis
00:29:29
Speaker
Well, in a vacuum, if you had to decide between the two, Kyron Williams or CMC, who are you taking? The man with three letters, the MVP candidate. It's not enough of a price difference, because even on FanDuel, it's only a $1,500 difference. That's a huge difference. I personally don't think that's enough. Not on FanDuel.
00:29:55
Speaker
I was on draft kings, it gives me a lot of monies. Even on draft kings, it's 1,300. You could just punt your defense, like literally just punt it and get the 1,000 back. Or like, don't play Chris Olave and play Rashid Shahid instead.
00:30:11
Speaker
There's your salary difference. Or when we get to tight end, you just played Gerald Everett, who's going to get 20 targets tomorrow. And he's going to be like 20% owned. Not playing chalky ass Gerald Everett. Who cares? If you just run him back in your Stidham stack. Just run him back in your Stidham stack. I am not running him back. No. No. Are you playing Quinton Johnson? I'm not. Well, who's going to win the wide receivers, Jake? Who's going to win the wide receivers, Jake? I'm not playing a fucking charger. It's like I'm playing a fucking charger?
00:30:42
Speaker
I mean, listen, Baker, I mean, we can slide over to wire receiver now since we're there since she'll made the segue. But I mean, there is no Keenan Allen or Josh Palmer tomorrow. So like, if you want to get off of Chalky Joe and every he's got to throw to somebody, right? That's always going to fucking throat. Eastern stick is not going to throw to the other team because he's going to have like 50 rushing yards. Like, like instead of throwing it, he just runs.
00:31:10
Speaker
literally I watched the whole Buffalo game. It's not, he didn't make like a lot of bad questionable passes. It's just first three wasn't there. Did you watch the Raiders game too? Cause it was a bunch of wrong team. Uh, Baker, did he end up with 300 yards and three touchdowns that game? I think he did.
00:31:30
Speaker
So I'm just saying fantasy doesn't care if you got 303 in the beginning, the middle or the end. Period. Don't matter how you got there. Fantasy doesn't give you a deduction because you were down 60 to 20.
00:31:48
Speaker
Right. The points are not inflated in the first and fourth quarter. Okay. Let's be honest. Let's be honest. The Chargers fumble, the Chargers fumbled like three times and the, uh, the Raiders player made one of the best interceptions all season. I mean, that was a sexy intersection. Yeah. Yeah. So like, let's get Mr. Stick a little break here. What the fuck has he done to deserve a fucking break?
00:32:17
Speaker
Please enlighten me, Chill. From a fantasy standpoint, he's been serviceable. He had one halfway decent game. He had a good game against the Bills. He was fighting against the Bills. He was fighting against the Touchdown. For fantasy? No, you're not. Stop it. I hate it. He had like 10 fantasy points. That's not good. He had more than that. He did.
00:32:44
Speaker
He had more than 10 points. Regardless, we're on Y receivers, and I want to talk about his pass catchers if we're going to be paying down at, you know, to save some salary. It's Quinton Johnston and... Quinton Johnston is trash. Jalen Guyton, right? I mean, if I had to choose, done to my head, choose a charged Y receiver, I'm choosing Jalen Guy. By the way, Baker, he had 17 points.
00:33:12
Speaker
Terrible. Suck it. Terrible. He's got a 94.4 pass rating, 651 yards, three passing touchdowns.
00:33:21
Speaker
and 27 interceptions. He's got one I.N.T. bank and it was the really nice play one. So I don't know where you're getting this. Easton stick hate. But he just he just don't like he's a stick bro. We found an Easton stick hater. We found an Easton stick hater. Well since we're since we're on wide receivers can I bring up one of the chalky as wide receivers and like that entire situation with that team. Can I can I can I do this. Can I can I have worse for a minute. Yeah. So people of the deli.
00:33:49
Speaker
I would like to announce to you, if you've been here for a minute, you know who I hate. You know I cannot stand this man. And there's a reason this all of a sudden sucks offensively because of one man. Matthew James Nagy is trash. I just want to get on myself for a minute and talk about how bad the Chiefs offense is. You shut your fucking mouth.
00:34:18
Speaker
One man on this deli has defended Matt Nagy through and through. He has turned the best quarterback in the league to hot garbage because he sucks. I think he got turned into hot garbage because I'm sorry does Matt Nagy drop the passes?
00:34:34
Speaker
Is he out there dropping passes? I just want to make sure. Is he out there fumbling in front of T-Swift? I just want to make sure. Is Matt Nagy washed up a Titan like Travis Kelce is for now? Offense is trash. You can try to defend it all you want. You can try to defend your boy Matt Nagy. Matt Nagy is trash. It is proven by the fact that he took the best offense, the best
00:34:59
Speaker
Offense and it's turned it into an average offensive. So is it that or you know, that's the same guy that got Mitch Trubisky to the playoffs You can like do you have another argument for Matt Maggie? Like that's literally your only argument. He got mr Biski to the playoffs. That's the only one I need So and he's a super little chicken He was he was Patrick Williams quarterbacks coach for his MVP here got a ring so I just want to make sure that so Andy Reid has nothing to do with those play calls and
00:35:28
Speaker
That's what you're saying. Who is the, hold on, hold on. If we're going to give Matt Nagy the- No, no, no. You haven't answered my question. No, see, listen, I don't like arguing with you. Answer my question. Does Andy Reid have anything to do with those play calls? I'm not in that chief's building. Answer my question. Yes or no? I don't know. That's what I'm trying to tell you. I'm not in that building. No, you're not. We all know the answer to the question. The question is yes. Moving on. Let's get to what I'd receive.
00:35:55
Speaker
So I assume after the rant, we're not playing Rashid Rice. Absolutely fucking not. Is that what I gathered? No. I'll play him. I'll play him. I'll play him. I'll play him. Cincinnati gives up the most explosive plays in football. But not the number one receivers. It's still the most explosive plays. They've actually done a really good job at number one receivers. That's what I'm trying to tell you, chill. They actually have done really good on one receiver. He's the number one target.
00:36:26
Speaker
because they just open or is it like he's so big. So Baker you're playing just to watch it tomorrow then. Oh you go. You go miss out on this Travis Gosey game bro. It's coming tomorrow. It's going tomorrow bro. Looking at this late I honestly wanted to play Travis Gosey because I know how much they give it up to the tight end but I'm like no.
00:36:53
Speaker
Now, Baker, if you told me you didn't want to play Rashid Rice because he's the chalkiest wide receiver on the slate, I get that. No, I hate you for Matt Nagy. Like, I've been reminded. Rashid Rice has been killing it for like the past three or four weeks. He had like 12 points last week. How the fuck is that killing it? It's still, again, like he's a rookie. And again, that's he's been consistent. This is a guy who's coming off of like barely any snap shares to start the season.
00:37:22
Speaker
We're in week 17. The start of the season was 17 weeks ago. Yeah, and they didn't play them. They thought Sky Moore was going to be the guy. They thought Caderis Tony was going to be the guy. I mean, R.I.P. those Sky Moore shares. Oh, my God. Wow. Oh, my God. No wonder all my basketball team sucked. I had a bunch of Sky Moore. Anyway.
00:37:43
Speaker
Which is funny, compared to the guy that just basked Matt Nagy. You had a bunch of shares of Chiefs, but- No, I had AG. AG. But he's still playing for Matt Nagy Baker. He's still playing for Matt Nagy. I was thinking about Matt Nagy when I did my best ball game. I was talking about Matt Nagy. You've been talking to dude for the past seven years. You start drafting, and it's like, well, Scott Morrison, you're the guy this year under a Matt Nagy offense.
00:38:13
Speaker
You baker, you just went back on your own shit. No, I didn't go back on my own shit. You've been playing, you're playing Justin Watson tomorrow. Stop the cap. I will take his prop bet. Justin Watson versus Rashid Rice. I give it either one of y'all. I'll take it right now. I take it. I'm a hot bake. No, I'm good. Can I, can I interest you guys instead of playing brain and I hook tomorrow? We just played Deebo Samuel again. Yes.
00:38:42
Speaker
He needs 168 yards to hit 1K and they could be potentially resting starters tomorrow. He could totally get that like tomorrow and be done.
00:38:52
Speaker
And he's coming at lesser ownership than Brandon Ayuk. So it's like, if you want to play two 49ers and squeeze in those two high price guys, you don't even have to bring along Purdie in that case. At that case, you're paying down a quarterback anyway. So I wouldn't do like Purdie, CMC and Deebo. I would just do like Deebo and CMC and then find a cheaper quarterback. If I want to stuff something in like that, you know, cause again, a lot of people were playing Ayuk.
00:39:13
Speaker
but not enough people were playing Deebo. You know, the guy that's literally capable of breaking slates. So there's a, I mean, I'm looking at those wide receiver ownership, um, some, some, some odd ownership out there. Uh, nobody's playing AJ Brown tomorrow. Uh, even though everybody's playing Jalen hurts, uh, apparently they're playing them naked. Question mark. Uh, nobody, nobody's playing the Rams wide receivers tomorrow. So a stat for double automatically makes you different.
Underdog Wide Receiver Picks
00:39:42
Speaker
Um,
00:39:43
Speaker
It's a little weird here. Oh, look at Mike Evans. Oh, Mike. Nobody's playing my efforts. I think Mike Evans was Mike Evans sitting down at the other side of the bar. I mean, he needs one more. He needs one more touchdown for a hundred.
00:40:03
Speaker
in his career. He's getting it tomorrow. If you, if y'all want to place it anytime prop that's guaranteed to hit, guess what? Mike Evans is fucking scoring tomorrow. Believe that. So load that, load that bet up. Yeah. Mike Evans every week.
00:40:20
Speaker
every week, every week, chill. You already mentioned it. No one's playing Baker. No one's playing Mike Evans. Huh? You're going to run chalky ass Chris Alave and Rashid, she'd on the opposite side, but no one's going to play this side of it. The buck side, you know, when they could win the division tomorrow against an inferior opponent. Question mark. Um, yeah. Give me some Mike Evans. Give them all to me. The fact that Devontae Parker has more ownership than all of those players we just named and the Mario Douglas, the Mario Douglas, I get.
00:40:49
Speaker
Devontae Parker. What did he say? What did he say? Devontae Parker, six and a half percent. I want to play some Devontae Parker. Y'all don't like good receivers? Like what? I just wow. Wow, wow, wow.
00:41:10
Speaker
That's infuriating. So we're all in agreeance. We should probably find room for Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel, you know, guys like that that are actually like really good at football and score touchdowns. Well, Chills playing Baker, I'm playing Derek Carr. So we're already both on Mike Evans right now. So listen, I'll play Derek Carr too. I'll play both quarterbacks from that game. I really don't care. Yeah, Baker, we can get our sneaky shootout popping off. We talking about the quarterback Baker or me Baker.
00:41:38
Speaker
Both. Okay. In this case, Chilly, you mentioned somebody on Wednesday. I'm surprised you had to bring them up again. One Devontae Adams. Gross. Yeah. Like I said, I do like Devontae Adams this week. For me, I think it's more of a fan duel play. Okay. I do like his price over there on FD. So again, on Draftkings, I can understand. I'll probably only play Devontae Adams with AOC, I think.
00:42:06
Speaker
Uh, but I'll have to see kind of how the builds shake out. Okay. Okay. And, uh, one more question now I'll throw out there before we, uh, slide over to tight end to Tyreke or not Tyreke. That is the question this week to you. I'll take it to the dolphins fan first.
00:42:25
Speaker
So if you tie or not Tyreke, if you play Tyreke, who are you? Because I assume if you're playing Tyreke, you're probably playing to. I mean, you could one off Tyreke. Oh, yeah. You don't need to. You don't need to bring along to it with that. No, he's just chalk. So it's just like, do you just play to with him and you beat the chalk that way? I mean, it all depends on Tyreke. Then who are you not playing Tyreke? You so or are you just putting in some crappers?
00:42:55
Speaker
I mean, I think you can get weird at the lower, not lower, but lower price tiers. So like, let's say you start your team with Tyreke, Zamir and CMC, where are you going to get unique? So two is one way to do it. Just bring him alongside or some of these quarterbacks that we already mentioned, you know what I'm saying? Bring a Baker Mayfield alongside, bring a,
00:43:17
Speaker
you know, AOC, in your case, alongside them, like you got to break up that team's ownership somehow. It's just, there's very few people on this slate that could destroy the entire slate. And if you don't have them, you're dead.
Tight End Strategies: Avoiding Chalk
00:43:32
Speaker
CMC, Tyreek Hill, Deebo Samuel. That's probably the end of the list. If you don't have one of these guys,
00:43:40
Speaker
You might be effed. And, you know, I guess 20... I guess 2022 Travis Kelsey, but... That's another guy that can nuke a slate. Well, I'll put this guy on there as much as I'm not a... I'm not a hater to this man. I just... I just don't think he's all that good. I'll put Josh Allen on that list as well. That's fair. That's fair. I mean, quarterback... I'm not a hater, but I'll give the man words due. Like, he can nuke the slate.
00:44:09
Speaker
I think quarterbacks rarely have the score that says you need that quarterback. But he can get 40.
00:44:16
Speaker
I mean, but it was one slate earlier this year that Josh Allen did break off 40, 45 points. And he wasn't in tournament winning lineups because no one had him. It was literally the week that him and Gabe Davis went absolutely nuclear. And it was like, didn't need him because what you lost in that lineup prevented Josh Allen from being, yes, he was QB one, but there was other people behind him at probably a cheaper price tag that she was just like,
00:44:41
Speaker
We're good. So I love Josh Allen. Obviously, I think, yes, he is in that tier that could say he's a 45 point quarterback, but who is he bringing along with him? If he brings along Steph Diggs, you don't have Tyree Hill in that lineup. If he brings along Diggs, you don't have CMC in that lineup. Because Steph Diggs is still expensive for no reason. Here we are. Here we are. So Baker, to Tyree Hill or not Tyree Hill? That is still the question.
00:45:12
Speaker
I think it's going to depend on how I feel when I wake up on Sunday, honestly, because I've been waffling. Baker, the people are listening now. They don't know your thoughts when you wake up. They want to know now, are you playing Tyreek Hill with me and Chill? Or at least with me, I'm playing Tyreek Hill. I'm doing it. I think that that speaks to the difficulty of playing him, because obviously the matchup, the matchup would be considered difficult. No Jalen Waddle, he should see even more targets like this could easily be a 20 target type of game for Tyreek.
00:45:42
Speaker
So the volume is going to be in abundance. That price tag is that price tag is hard to swallow. A lot of them are but we're swallowing the CMC to price. So I mean why not a guy like Tyree Hill. Just throw it out there.
00:46:03
Speaker
Um, tight ends. So again, Joe Everett chalk, um, that's an insta fade for me. Uh, so I'm just going to look elsewhere. I don't think enough people are playing Isaiah likely in this matchup. He probably to me makes the most interesting run back in the Miami stack. If you're going to run it that way or minis with Tyreek Hill, he's still at an affordable price of 4,600. So, I mean, like you're, you know, he's a thousand dollars less than kiddo. He's, you know,
00:46:31
Speaker
He's 2,400 less than Travis Kelsey, who more people want to play than Isaiah likely this week. So, and then I'm not understanding the Chig-ish chalk. Like, is he catching passes still from Derek Henry this week? It's because he caught a touchdown last week, bro. I mean, I get it, but it wasn't from a quarterback. That was as high as fantasy output of the year. I'm not playing a chalky Chig. I'm just not doing it.
00:46:59
Speaker
I mean, the dude's been shocked somehow for like the last month. Right. All right. I mean, listen, if you're not playing Gerald Everett or let's see, let's take a look here. Trey McBride, Schultz, Kittle, Chig. If you play Travis Kelsey, you're different. If you want to get really gross on DK and go to the men, play Austin Hooper. Not Austin Hooper. It's $2,500.
00:47:28
Speaker
needs five points. I would rather play Jimmy Graham and hope he scores. I think, I think Kate Otten is fine. If you want to play Kate Otten in your bank, in a saints run back or a big buck stack, I think that's fine. I like that a lot actually. I think the only, maybe a high price tight end that I would be willing to play at no ownership is Evan Ingram.
00:47:57
Speaker
That's fair. I mean, backup quarterbacks tend to have safety valves more to the tight end and running back position, which again, we already love Travis ETN. So I mean, yeah, I can get behind that. Absolutely. 100%.
00:48:10
Speaker
Baker, what, what
Bold Predictions for Week 17
00:48:11
Speaker
about yourself? I guess I should raise the same question. No, I can't raise it to you because he's a chief. So nevermind. You're not playing chiefs. Anyway, I raised the question to children to Travis Kosey or not Travis Kosey. Yeah. Yeah. If you can, if the build, right. And Travis Kelsey makes sense. I'm here for Travis Kelsey. All right. All right. Just wanted to clear that up for the peeps. Baker, since you're not playing Travis Kosey, who are you playing tomorrow?
00:48:36
Speaker
Well, if I put my Matthew Nagy bias aside for a second, I mean, this is one of the great. This is one of the best match ups that Travis Kelsey is going to see versus Bengals team. So bias aside, Travis Kelsey is an absolute smash. But let's be real. But I mean. My number one is with a bullet without a doubt, it is Chuck McBride.
00:49:04
Speaker
And, you know, I think he absolutely smashes tomorrow. Okay. Okay. Baker's TE1 is Trey McBride. Noted. And I still think he's under priced. Like this dude should be priced around Travis Kelsey right now. All right.
00:49:22
Speaker
I have an, I have an interesting run back for, uh, for your Rams side. Uh, why don't we just load up there? Really throwing their wall. Hey man, Tyra Taylor likes to chuck it. And if he could catch, or if he didn't get overthrown, he should have had two touchdowns last week. Let's be real. So if he needs an outlet, because these giants receivers kind of stink, mine is like Darius Slayton, who, you know, appears every now and again. But I mean, if you want to get cheap, he's 4,500 on DK, like,
00:49:52
Speaker
you could do worse than Darren Waller who used to be, you know, a top five tight end in this league. So yeah. And I also used to not have facial hair, but things change. Things do change, but it took you like 30 years to grow the facial hair where it took Darren Waller two years to fall off a cliff. So
00:50:12
Speaker
Just saying, just saying. I mean, if you watch the tape from last week, again, I watched that Giants game because, you know, it was on a short slate. Darren Waller was open AF, like all the time. And again, Tyra Taylor's a little chucker, man. He's gonna, he's gonna fight in this game. So you can do worse than Darren Waller. I'm just throwing it out there. I'm just throwing it out there. Chill, did we miss anybody at the TE spot? I don't think so. I mean, tight end just kind of boils down to for me, just play what fits.
00:50:42
Speaker
Sure, sure, which is how it always is. Unless you're forcing a specific play. So tomorrow, Travis Kocie stacks, he's not going to be last in. He's going to be first in. And then you got to build around that. Sure. Everyone else, it's like, all right, I got 5,400 left. Let's play this guy. All right, I got 3,500 left. Throw in this guy. But Travis Kocie, you have to make a priority. Same. I mean, Kittle's almost on that line too, right? A little bit. And George Kittle.
00:51:10
Speaker
I mean, kiddo make brides getting to that point as well. To the point where his price is not indicative to be like, I could just fit him in, yay. Too bad we don't have in joku on this slate, huh? I would say when I saw that the Browns played on Thursday this week, I'm like, no, we got to go back to the black hole. I know, right? We had to exploit the revenge. Double revenge.
00:51:36
Speaker
Well, it was, it was honestly funny. Like ever since Joe Flacco came to Cleveland, like Studer has literally been playing this dude every fucking week. And he's getting there every freaking week. Every fucking week. But next week, old man will be sleeping probably. So unless Joe's team could pull off the upset. I mean, was it an upset or are they favored? I think Baltimore's favorite.
00:52:05
Speaker
I do believe the Ravens are favorite. We can look that up here in a second as we transition to our favorite. They are favorite because Baltimore's at home by three. So if it was the other way, the one be like, yeah, I'll pick them. Yeah, probably. But what you're saying is their favorite. They are favorite. All right. Well, let's slide over to defense real quick and knock the rest of the Baltimore. What you're playing Baltimore's defense. That's a fucking lonely.
00:52:33
Speaker
Twenty hundred dollars is wiggling the pickle, huh? I mean, my pickle likes to wiggle. Fair? Fair. That's fine. And I mean, I think it's, I think that's totally fine. You get pressure on Tua, Tua becomes mediocre at best, so. I'm with you on that. I mean, we could always play the Bears defense. Atlanta's kind of, kind of trash, bro.
00:52:59
Speaker
I mean, they look good last week, I guess, but I don't know. Kind of trash. Kind of trash, bro. There are a lot of trash. They are. You're right. You're right. I mean, how does paying up at defense this week sound to you guys? I mean, the 49ers are at the commies. They can afford it. Just can't afford it, so you're paying down? Or who are we paying down for, Chill? Who you got? Probably the Chalk defense. So either Denver, the Panthers. I was going to say Denver.
00:53:31
Speaker
Maybe Miami's. The Bengals. Anybody interested in the Bengals defense? No. No, no, no, no. I don't even figure out something clever for that. No. That team got lit up by Mason Rudolph. Dude, they did get lit up by Mason Rudolph. Oh, my God. And maybe, I mean, maybe New England, if you think
00:53:58
Speaker
Josh Allen's going to throw you the ball. I think that one's kind of thin, but maybe New England's, if you really need to go down. Football logic. The Mason Rudolph lit up the Bengals. The Bengals will shut down Pat Mahomes. They've had an extra day to prepare. Bro, like I said, football logic. Somehow that's going to end up being what it is. I don't think they shut down Pat Mahomes in Kansas City.
00:54:27
Speaker
Oh, no, I just wanted to say the Bengals just because of my man. Yeah, he just wants to be an ass. Just wants to be an ass. Man, I really got nothing. I mean, for me, because I'm playing over on Yahoo, the Rams defense is almost the men. So I'm just going to lock that in.
00:54:51
Speaker
I think if you want to convince yourself, like if you're not playing Kyra Williams or the Rams and you want to play the Giants defense, it plays a whole West coast team on the East coast logic. I think that you can convince yourself of that. I mean, you have a pick six, right? They didn't have a defensive touchdown last week against hurts. Damn right. Yeah. I mean,
00:55:14
Speaker
You could do worse. You could definitely do worse. Cuz I mean we were not far from far removed from last year's logic with Matt Stafford before he got hurt was this man's gonna throw you the ball at least once or twice a game. Right, he's literally gonna throw it right to you. Right to you. So I understand like we all don't care about defense and we play kind of what fits. Sure. At what point does you have do you have to love the lineup to play the combi's defense?
00:55:46
Speaker
I'm not playing the commies defense. My lineup would have to be hot. Like, I mean, there's no other pivots available. I love this lineup, but the only thing that fits is the commies. Oh, no, because if you love the lineup, it has a 49er in it. That's a great point. That's a great point, Joe. Great point. Unless you're going to convince me that they get fucking stonewalled tomorrow.
00:56:16
Speaker
Stop it, dude. I am. I am. Stop it. But I mean, I got this hard out that Baker and I need to get ready to leave, too. So we do that. We do. Yeah, man. Hot take. Wrap it up. Let's do it with a hot one. Let's go. Let's go. Hot take some. What did I do? What did I do? Oh, I went. I went to Monte Adams on Wednesday.
00:56:45
Speaker
Yes. I did. I did. Okay. Let's, let's go. Some tomfoolery here. Not the tomfoolery. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Jared, Jared Statham goes for 25 fantasy points. Oh boy. I love it. I love it. Uh, Jared Statham's going to turn into Jake Plummer.
00:57:14
Speaker
Old school Rocco and put up some stats tomorrow, baby. Not the original Jake the Snake. Not the original Jake the Snake, baby. Spin them time, dog. Oh, boy. Baker, what's hot? What's hot tomorrow? Well, chill. I want you to stew on this while I'm saying this. I want you to stew on this because you haven't given us your rotund chick at the bar tonight. Yeah, I did. Yeah, he did.
00:57:38
Speaker
Mike Evans was at the end of the bar wasn't really realizing he was the fat chick. Oh, yeah You see you see you see that fat chick going in at like 2% I'm over here scheming
00:57:52
Speaker
I mean, that's the whole thing, fat shit. I mean, like, Chill, you normally give us, like, the build up. You know what I'm saying? I quit. Sully named him. And like, all right, that's it. The build up was gone. Because Chill, what's going to happen is that you and I are going to be fighting over this same bitch because I saw that ass. And I'm just like, man, first of all, I knock both of y'all out for this shit. First of all, let's be real like this. I will knock both of y'all out. Her name is Mike.
00:58:22
Speaker
Her name is Mai. How long she been coming here? Nine straight years? Thousand and things, really? Every time? What? I mean, every week, bro? Is that? I get it. I get it. Baker, some hot, some hot. All right. I'm going to hit you with a stat line. For TE1, we go on 15 catches.
00:58:51
Speaker
150 yards. He said 15 catches. Did you hear him say 15 catches? 15. 150 yards and two of them. If you do not have Chalk McBride, just go to sleep. So you're playing Kyler Murray.
00:59:12
Speaker
Not him two touchdowns ain't enough for me. You might as well play Kyler Murray at that point. Because Jared Statham is going to have enough points for me at that 25. Jared Statham. That's a great point.
00:59:27
Speaker
Another one I'll hit you with for being hot, you know what I'm saying? I understand that he's gonna have some ownership, butt, comma. You know what? No, fuck that. I'm getting, no, I'm not saying that one. Tyreek Hill is still gonna have a great day, but the guy you need is gonna be another one that's already broken several slates before, and you're gonna need him again tomorrow. Deebo Samuel gets to 1,000 yards on the season with the 168 that he needs, gets in the box twice,
00:59:54
Speaker
And he's gonna go right alongside CMC, who's going to find the box two more times. And, and, and on DraftKings, if you're that kind of psychopath, if you don't have CMC, you lose tomorrow because he will hit the double bonus tomorrow. 100 in the air, 100 on the ground, two touchdowns. Deebo Samuel, 70 on the ground, 168 in the air, two touchdowns.
01:00:24
Speaker
