00:00of really good matchups this week as we get into crunch time in fantasy football and the last
00:05last auditions before the NFL trade deadline so a lot of intrigue heading into this week
00:17that was far too loud uh all right we're not gonna do the Thursday night game because I'm
00:20recording this seven hours before that game actually happens I am assuming Jacksonville
00:24is going to look very good in that one uh let's get into the early matchup out in Madrid it
00:31is the
00:31Bengals taking on the Falcons Cincinnati favored by three points Atlanta pulling off the incredibly
00:37rare we lost to a team with zero passing yards last week now they take on one of the most
00:41dynamic
00:42passing attacks in football um obviously last week's game gets thrown out the window because
00:47of the rain and everything like that for Atlanta but it did feel like a lot of the shine was
00:52coming
00:52off of that team after a couple of big weeks in Michael Penix's return from injury Bengals are an
00:58improved defensive team I still don't think they're a good defensive team that's why the total for this
01:02one is sitting at 53 and a half um I do like the Bengals here like I do think they're
01:06a substantially
01:07better football team than Atlanta and I think honestly minus three I I think we're I think we're
01:13underreacting to what happened against the Buccaneers like I I feel like that line is kind of
01:21yeah I feel like they just didn't want to overreact to what happened last week so we'll just keep it
01:25at
01:25three but even if that game just was a normal football game I I think that Cincinnati should
01:31be favored by more going into this one so I like the Bengals minus three from a fantasy standpoint I
01:37really like obviously the the Cincinnati attack here like Burrow I think is obviously a play with
01:42the two receivers who have been phenomenal Brown I think should be someone who I know that there's
01:48been a lot of frustration but I think he's someone that you could certainly trust from a fantasy
01:52footballing standpoint this week and for the Atlanta Falcons Penix I I just I'm not quite there
01:59in starting this week against Cincinnati even though like Vegas has this at 53 and a half so
02:04it I wouldn't be dropping him to rush out and pick like JJ McCarthy or anything like that but
02:09I'm also not like sitting one of my main starters to be able to put Penix in so um I
02:15think he's kind of
02:16middle of the pack for quarterbacks this week Bijan we're obviously starting London we're obviously
02:20starting and if you have a better tight end option than Pitts go for it but most don't so
02:24um I think you can kind of comfortably play that spot there uh we have Addy asking a chat there
02:29in
02:30the um uh in the chat on YouTube um I'll get to that when we get to some of these
02:35other games here
02:35Addy as we just kind of roll through the schedule uh let's go Cowboys against the Colts Dallas favored
02:40by five and a half the total at 51 and a half again that feels a little disrespectful to Dallas
02:45like
02:45this is a bad football team out in Indianapolis they just got dog walked by Jacksonville last week
02:50so Dallas right in the thick of it again in this playoff race that was a heartbreaker last week
02:55against Arizona so I can understand not wanting to go full bore into this one here for the Cowboys but
03:01um at five and a half I think they win this game by more of a touch more than a
03:05touchdown as the Colts
03:06continue to to sell things off um also it would be a very Jerry move to bring in Jonathan Taylor
03:13wouldn't it like that just that feels like old Jarrah Jones making uh making a big splash for
03:18his football team again so um just a bit of a dark horse one I guess on that one from
03:23a fantasy
03:24standpoint I think we can start our Cowboys this week Dak um if we're making that trade there uh Cole
03:30Javante for sure CeeDee Lamb yeah Pickens yeah and I think even Flournoy again continuing to work
03:35into this offense has some value and for the Colts like JT's the only one I consider starting
03:40at this point the offense is just putrid I guess Keenan Allen PPR leagues because of the volume
03:45that he's going to get but like downs we're waiting for a trade and anyone else there I think we're
03:50really waiting for a trade to happen here at this point uh Rams taking on the Commanders LA favored
03:55by five and a half Washington um the home side in a game where the total is at 48 and
04:01a half again like
04:02I think LA is significantly better than Washington is so I'm liking too many road dogs this week I'm not
04:09not loving that uh or too many road favorites I guess this week not loving that but um yeah I
04:15think
04:15for now like yeah I don't think Washington is close to the Rams level and LA like they really got
04:20to get
04:21this thing going because of how competitive that division and the NFC is just in general um although I
04:26think there's going to be you know playoff spots to be had but that that division is really really
04:31competitive right now so they're going to want to step up here and I think the Commanders like it's
04:34cool you can do that against the Eagles but the Eagles are a much different animal this year than in
04:41years past so yeah I like LA by a substantial margin and again I think we can roll with our
04:46Rams this
04:46week I think this is a week you can start Stafford um I think you can start both LA running
04:50backs
04:51and Puka Nakua is an every week play um Higby has obviously been disappointing for tight end
04:56but I think the main guys in LA we can go with for the Commanders I mean it's kind of
05:02no one like I
05:03don't trust Jaden Daniels against an improving Rams defense I don't trust the pass catching options
05:08like I said pick up Williams in the the waiver wire so if we're desperate I think you can go
05:12with that
05:13but I'm not I'm not rushing to put him in the lineup this week or any of the other running
05:18back
05:18options so start your Rams don't start your Commanders is where we're at for uh that particular
05:25matchup Browns taking on the Saints now we're liking a road dog because New Orleans favored
05:30by three and I just like yeah last week didn't go great for the Browns but I still think they
05:36are
05:37the better football team right now than New Orleans because of how good that defense can be
05:42so I like Cleveland in this spot I kind of like the under two at under 42 and a half
05:47um I think that's
05:48a good play I think Cleveland's going to be able to really lock down what's happening there on the
05:52defensive side and thusly from a fantasy standpoint not much that you like like Olave
06:00that's kind of it I I was seeing a lot of Kendra Miller talk this week I wouldn't be
06:04necessarily going there because of the Cleveland defense um for the Browns we're never starting
06:08to Sean Watson I think Samson can be a decent pass catching back option for you
06:12and I think Concepcion and Boston you feel good about playing them kind of every week so
06:18I I do like the Browns in that particular game uh we have some news from um the the slate
06:25coming up
06:25on Monday night football um some talk about the Vikings starting quarterback so we'll get to that
06:31here in just a second as we work our way through the schedule Jets taking on the Kansas City Chiefs
06:36Chiefs favored by 10 I think they dominate this game um I think they're pissed off after how last
06:42week went and the Jets just lost to the Raiders who aren't the Chiefs so I I think after this
06:48game
06:48that the calls for Aaron Glenn's job are going to be louder and louder as Kansas City pushes toward
06:54a playoff spot from a fantasy standpoint it's a no for me dog on a lot of things for the
07:00Jets like
07:00uh Brees and Wilson you have to play them the rest probably not probably not right now
07:06um against the good Kansas City defense and I think you can start your Chiefs this week I think
07:11Mahomes is a good play against the Jets obviously Kenneth Walker is I think even Emmitt Johnson can
07:15be someone that you trust in some deeper leagues so um I would go with him I think Rice is
07:20going to
07:20be fine worthy like all of those guys it's a good match up here throwing things around good match up
07:25here against the Jets um we got BBJ awesome seeing your community growing you rock PK keep up the good
07:32work appreciate that BBJ thank you so much uh appreciate you um popping back into the chat here
07:36miss you on uh on these every day but uh I mean I haven't been here every day so tough
07:41for me to
07:41hold that against anyone else but uh yeah hopefully once we get back into a bit more of a regular
07:45swing
07:45uh when we get you uh around these parts a little bit more uh we got the the uh Lions
07:50taking on
07:50the Miami Dolphins Lions favored by seven the total is at 50 and a half uh the Lions could get
07:57to 50 and a
07:58half just on their own um like they I think they absolutely torch the Dolphins here we don't need to
08:04break this one down much and from a fantasy standpoint we don't need to break this one down
08:07much either um we are going all in on our Lions and like I was gonna say no for the
08:13Dolphins I do
08:14think Ollie Gordon can have some value this week and I do think that Caleb Douglas is a pretty good
08:18play given the lack of defense that I think the Lions play on a weekly basis uh we do have
08:24a
08:24quarterback question for our next one Broncos taking on the Panthers um we have the Broncos favored
08:30by two and a half and the total at 44 and a half that just again that's one that feels
08:34too low I
08:35think Denver is quite a bit better than Carolina is so I like the Broncos here in in this game
08:41again
08:42just they're a better football team than Carolina right now from a fantasy standpoint we have this
08:47question in the chat do I start Cousins um or Murray against the Bills we'll get to that in a
08:52second
08:52I also have Bryce Young McCarthy and uh Willis are the top quarterbacks on the waiver wire that I
08:58could pick up um so the the Murray part and then he acknowledges it after or Addy acknowledges it after
09:03um with the the Carson Wentz news so it is down to Cousins or Bryce Young I will say like
09:09Wentz
09:09I don't think I would be starting Carson Wentz so but I I do think that it's it's not just
09:14a throwaway
09:15well we couldn't possibly um I I think man like none of those options are great like you do have
09:22um Cousins against the 49ers that's just it's such a good defense so I I don't think I'm
09:28trusting him against San Francisco um Bryce Young like obviously I think he's kind of turned a bit
09:34of a corner but this is a really good Broncos defense that he's going up against so I would
09:40have some concerns about playing him Willis I get it's Detroit I just it's so bad it's so bad I
09:46I
09:47don't think I could trust him there McCarthy for the Giants against the Eagles honestly Addy I think
09:52that's the play um sorry it's uh Addy um Addy Normile VBall 2024 hopefully I'm saying any of
10:01that right um but yeah I I think McCarthy against the Eagles is the play there I don't like Cousins
10:07against the 49ers I don't like Wentz against the Bills I don't like Bryce against the Broncos I think
10:12as we go through it McCarthy is the the one for you to pick up there Addy I think that
10:16would be the
10:17the move I had Jalen Hurts but rip yeah that's um that's a pretty good way to have your your
10:22season
10:23come crashing down for sure um so yeah McCarthy would be the play there at quarterback in terms
10:28of the rest of the options for this team for the the Panthers I think Chuba's an okay play as
10:35a
10:35running back two here this week and I like Coker probably not this week like I was hoping that he
10:40would work his way into every week territory he just hasn't so Coker would be a no for me
10:45the Broncos uh Bo Nix it's it's still not great I I don't think I would go Bo Nix um
10:52the the running back situation there Jonah Coleman I think you can play and trust pretty well and I'm
10:56gonna trust Jalen Waddell again from the the Denver Broncos I'm I'm ready to be hurt again we have up
11:03next now uh the last one of the early slate Giants taking on the Eagles the totals at 38 and
11:08a half
11:08uh Giants favored by three Philadelphia's in a transition I I think that we'll see a couple
11:13players moved off of this football team um to so they can kind of reset and go into next season
11:20Giants like I think McCarthy's good enough to get them some wins here and I think he's going to to
11:25be
11:25able to to um at least from a fantasy standpoint get the other guys the ball and just not screw
11:31this one up for them like they were able to pull off that win against Houston a couple of weeks
11:35ago
11:35going into their bye so now he's had the bye able to get back on track I think McCarthy's going
11:39to
11:39be fine here for the Giants we've given him out as a fantasy play throughout the week um or throughout
11:45the episode here which I guess is the week for us because of the the move and everything but um
11:48yeah I think McCarthy is good I think Scadaboo is a guy that you can play for sure and like
11:53neighbors
11:53were never setting him gave out Malachi Fields as a waiver wire rebound this week I think he has a
11:59little bit of a bit of a boost in value with JJ McCarthy there at quarterback um all right the
12:05the chat
12:05has been going great so far here um you guys have been awesome I'm trying to kind of line everything
12:10up with the games that we're talking about um and so that does lead to me forgetting some stuff so
12:15I'm
12:16hoping that I don't forget to go back and uh to take a look at everything after and uh tidy
12:20this up
12:20but uh a lot of fun with uh NNKQ and uh BBJ having some uh some fun in the YouTube
12:26chat let's go to
12:27the late afternoon window and we'll start with my Raiders as they take on the 49ers San Francisco
12:33favored by nine and a half it's getting tempting there because the Raiders have played some of these
12:39better teams closer right like they kept it close against Kansas City they kept it close against Buffalo
12:43they kept it close against the 49ers yes they got blown out by the the Patriots but they've kept it
12:50close against some of these teams so I could see the Raiders hanging in there a little bit here with
12:55this 49ers team I just wouldn't bet on it from a fantasy standpoint I think Purdy is a play in
13:00fantasy
13:00football absolutely I like Purdy this week um CMC if he's healthy he's playing um I think even
13:06Kalen Black has some pretty good value to him in this matchup and George Kittle always but I'm not
13:11trusting any of the pass catching um wide receivers for the 49ers for the Raiders Ashton
13:16Gentey continues to get enough in the passing attack that we can still put him in the lineup every
13:21week I don't think this is a Trey Tucker game but I do think Brock Bowers has to be in
13:25every week
13:25play and we've talked about it before Kirk Cousins is just uh an absolute no-go for me here this
13:31week
13:31for the Raiders also in what is now here in um uh Alberta the three o'clock window Texans against
13:38the
13:38Chargers as uh two teams compete to be the most disappointing on the season Texans favored by four
13:44and a half I like them here the the Chargers are just kind of hooped at this point and for
13:49fantasy
13:50they're easy I'm not trusting any of them I don't like I don't like the matchup against the Texans
13:55I don't like any of the players anyway so we can move on but I do like uh I think
13:59CJ Stroud has
14:00some value this week for you um the Texans quarterback I think yeah I think Woody Marks
14:06can go Nico obviously you can play him and and feel good about things there for the Texans so
14:11we're starting our main guys in that one Packers taking on at the New England Patriots we did have
14:17a question about a Patriot here uh this one from Fernando over on the YouTube side uh should I
14:24trade T Higgins and AJ Brown for Ramondre and Drake London I would not um I think T Higgins has
14:30been
14:30so good this season that I would not be wanting to give him up London obviously really solid with
14:35Michael Penix Jr. there I think like the the AJ Brown situation is obviously concerning but Ramondre
14:40isn't enough of a boost we just talked about them maybe trading for Jonathan Taylor so I'm I'm not
14:47super high on Ramondre right now I would be I would be holding on to the Higgins and AJ Brown
14:52side of
14:53that Fernando if I were you um because I I think better days are ahead at least for T Higgins
14:57we'll
14:57see about AJ Brown and for Ramondre but that's uh that's what I would be doing here this week um
15:03also from this matchup like I it's gonna be a great football game I again I'm going with the road
15:09team
15:09I like the Packers here just a little bit better than New England right now um I just think they
15:15have
15:15a few more ways that they can beat you in that passing attack than what New England has at this
15:19particular time and I think defensively they're starting to round it out a little bit from a
15:22fantasy standpoint it's I mean I think you have to roll with Drake May obviously here and New
15:30England's defense is just good enough that I don't know if this is a Jordan Love game keep an eye
15:34on
15:34the Jacobs situation um like it's it's not for me but if you have him if you have him on
15:39your roster
15:40and he's playing okay um I think you can kind of at least try to to get something out of
15:46that
15:47and then obviously check the health of the the wide receivers there Golden is for sure a play though
15:53for them and again it's it's check the health of the receivers for New England I think uh Pop
15:57Douglas has an okay game here against Green Bay I'm not trusting any of the running backs with New
16:02England right now so you would think hey New England against the Packers is gonna be a lot of
16:06fantasy goodness it's just not there it's just not there for me here this week with uh this one
16:11Arizona taking on Seattle Seahawks favored by eight and a half points of the total at 39 and a half
16:16yeah I think Seattle I get no Sam Darnold but Drew Locke is gonna be enough to just get the
16:21ball to JSN
16:22hand the ball off to Charbonnet and let them do their thing so I think Seattle cruises to a win
16:26in this spot and from a fantasy standpoint sneaky not a lot that you like I think
16:34honestly I don't think anyone on the Cardinals and I'm including Wilson I just think so much of
16:38that Seahawks defense and what they're going to be able to do to lock things down against Gardner
16:41Minshew and then for Seattle I can if you wanted to wait a week on Price or on Charbonnet after
16:47um a bit of a stumble from a fantasy standpoint out of the blocks I would understand it um if
16:52you want
16:52to throw them in I can get that too but I do like the idea of I mean obviously JSN
16:58is gonna have
16:59just a monster monster game here in in this game Buccaneers taking on the Bears Chicago favored by
17:06six and a half points totals at 47 and a half I think the Bears dominate this game I I
17:11don't think
17:11that spread is nearly big enough so I'm I'm really liking Chicago in this spot minus the six and a
17:17half
17:17and from a fantasy standpoint we're not sitting our Bears at this point you know who they are
17:21you're you're rolling with those guys Bucky Irving is a very good play for um for for Tampa Bay
17:28Ibuka Godwin if healthy I think can be a good start against this Bears defense um kind of a
17:35block game for Sunday night football though but then Monday a great one as uh these Smitty pointed
17:40out and we've talked about it a little bit already um no Kyler Murray it's Carson Wentz getting the
17:46start Kyler uh getting a head start on his pre-grand theft auto injury as he is now week to
17:51week um so
17:52it'll be Carson Wentz going out there against Buffalo Bills favored by three and a half I I like
17:56Buffalo in that spot especially against Carson Wentz uh but even still like this is it's going
18:01to be a bit of a slugfest and I'm looking forward to it it should be a lot of fun
18:04but I like Buffalo
18:05there in that spot from a fantasy standpoint we're never sitting Josh Allen we're not sitting Cooks
18:09and um more it's borderline
18:15I think I would probably play him in most situations but I'm sure you guys can come up with a
18:19number that
18:20we wouldn't necessarily be loving it um for the Vikings I don't think we can just throw Carson Wentz in
18:25and be fine um I think Aaron Jones getting a little bit more volume last week is intriguing
18:30I think Jordan Mason better days are ahead I think you can start them in this matchup and JJ is
18:34a forever
18:35start for me so that's it matchup by matchup going through and breaking things down we got a bunch of
18:41questions in the chat and I said that I would try to get back to all of them so now
18:44I'm gonna try to
18:45get back to all of them uh we got let's see we talked about that one uh BBJ thank you
18:51uh we hit that
18:54one uh and and saying I'm going to try and learn a little bit more about NFL football next year
19:00it
19:00sounds fun but I just have had too much on my plate yes no that I mean it's a lot
19:04to take in um it is
19:06fun it's becoming a bit more of a time commitment now I was gonna say the good thing is it's
19:10only one
19:10day a week it's not because there's also Thursday and there's Monday and all of that so um yeah like
19:17it's it's a fun thing to learn honestly I like I know there will be some football people who kind
19:23of scoff at this or whatever I don't know how much of a video game guy you are and and
19:27playing
19:28Madden taught me the sport right like it teaches you the coverages it's got a little bit more complex
19:33now for sure but it teaches you the coverages it teaches you just kind of the basic strategies of
19:38everything when you're in it and you're playing it and all of that so I don't know how much of
19:41a
19:41video game guy you are and and but I I think like Madden really was the the entry point for
19:46me
19:47into learning more and more about football um and that like there's obviously it depending on how deep
19:51you want to go like there's a ton of analytics out there um or if you just want to watch
19:55it just to
19:56watch it yeah it's fun it's good I enjoy it um I would um yeah 10 out of 10 would
20:02recommend there's
20:03some bad people in the sport but there's bad people in all sports you know uh we have Addy saying
20:07basically my whole team is the Panthers I have Hubbard and Coker may as well go with Bryce yeah
20:12I think like I I can I can see where you're coming from on that Bryce against the Broncos um
20:18I I still
20:19would probably go McCarthy but I can see where you're coming from like let's just if we're going
20:23down with the ship we may as well go all the way down with the ship right uh we have
20:26also Addy saying
20:27Coleman is my other running back St. Brown other wide receiver Loveland at tight end do I start uh
20:33Coker Algier or Boston at the Flex I man I want it to be I'll say Algier um like I
20:42against Seattle
20:43that's a tough matchup but I think last week at least buys him a little bit more volume in that
20:48backfield this week Coker as I mentioned tough matchup against the Broncos and uh Boston for
20:55Cleveland uh who did they have again the Saints actually you know what I'm changing it I'm not
21:00going Algier I'm gonna go Boston hopefully I I can't imagine you have to make any final lineup
21:04decisions at 12 39 on a Thursday but I would go I would switch that I would go Boston there
21:09over
21:10Algier Addy that's uh that that's how I would roll we got Matthew D on YouTube hi should I trade
21:15um Jay Jedis Coker and Gordon for Neighbors Waddle and Montgomery oh I
21:29no honestly like it's weird I think both sides say no um I just I I I if you want
21:35to make a trade
21:35to make a trade you can but I think there's enough holes that you could poke in both sides and
21:38I'm
21:38like I'm just I feel like you could get each side could get just a little bit better for the
21:43pieces
21:43involved in that one uh we got Arjun asking hey boys this week super flex for quarterback would you
21:49play CJ Love or Wentz since Murray is out and I have um JJ also for running backs uh do
21:57I go Marks
21:57or Zach this week all right so at quarterback I think CJ Stroud probably the one that I would go
22:03with there Texans taking on the Chargers it's a good matchup I would go CJ Stroud there for sure
22:08um at running back Marks or Charbonnet I like again it's against the Chargers I like Woody Marks there
22:13to have a pretty good day for you I think Charbonnet still kind of building into the offense Arjun so
22:17I would go with CJ Stroud and Woody Marks we're loading up on our Texans what's gone wrong when
22:23people have loaded up on Texans this year uh Tron Force is back in the YouTube chat the CMC owner
22:28is
22:29panicking trying to get black from me would you trade Jacobs Quorum and Valey for CMC and Goddard
22:35wow uh my other RBs are K9 Barkley Black and Emmett Johnson dude uh yeah I would I would make
22:42that trade
22:44like Jacobs um like I said like we just don't know when he's just done for the season given
22:50the the situation around him Quorum Quorum and Valey I've been high on both but it does feel like
22:56it we're coming up on midnight on both of them Quorum just hasn't been as involved in the offense
23:00as I thought he was going to be this season and Valey uh that offense it just feels like some
23:05of the
23:06shine has kind of wore it off so you're getting potentially the best running back in football
23:10for a bunch of pieces that just feel like yeah whatever like yeah that Tron 100% go out and
23:19try
23:19to get CMC with that offer uh and then say I'm not a video guy don't have a console but
23:23I have tried
23:24football games on my phone yeah and look I mean it's it's 2026 there's a bunch of um really interesting
23:30like YouTube channels that can just kind of teach you the basics of football and stuff like that or
23:34just you know watching it you know you know how to learn sports you're fine what am I doing telling
23:39you how to learn stuff you know you know you know uh all right we have a couple more questions
23:43here
23:43in the chat uh Smitty Superflex League swooped up all the new QBs starting this week to make trades
23:51to people who need a quarterback or two um or need a second or third quarterback love that absolutely
23:57love that um got gotta love the strategy why not um yesterday I baited someone into dropping
24:03Brissette 10 minutes before he got traded LOL hey it's the mental warfare part of it uh and then
24:10asking what team do I play for I or what team do I cheer for sorry uh I will jump
24:15on that bandwagon
24:16don't do it I can't I can't tell you to do that at end um I I am a Raider
24:20fan don't don't just don't
24:23you can you can find a better option out there at end I probably you could like do a a
24:27random team
24:28generator and it'll come up with a better option than the Raiders you don't you don't want to put
24:32yourself through this every week at end the good thing about it is I mean they're they're more
24:36competitive this year but in years past they're done by now and out of contention so I just get
24:41to watch the good teams play and not worry about oh man I'm missing this game because the Raiders
24:45are losing by 15 so that at least there's that but I would I would pick a better team than
24:49that right
24:49now um if if I were you um big simulator guy on I mean there are other games other than
24:58um Madden as
24:59well uh that you can get that there is a football manager sim that's actually a lot of fun for
25:05I
25:05know like there is also football manager but there's an American football manager style of game that's
25:10out there uh that you can kind of learn some of the intricacies in as well that's always been a
25:14fun
25:14way for me to kind of learn everything uh we got the chivalry king on YouTube I'm thinking about
25:18benching Michael Wilson and is a flowers and starting Keenan Allen and Josh Downs or Malik Washington
25:24and Caleb Douglas this week am I crazy my starting quarterback this week is Malik Willis I'm on board
25:30with sitting Michael Wilson I am I I could hear an argument for Zay Flowers but none of the guys
25:38you
25:38brought up gets me to starting over Zay Flowers like um Keenan depending on the format I think you
25:45do that over Wilson but over a guy like um Zay Flowers I just can't I I just I couldn't
25:53do that um
25:54yeah like I think ranking all the guys that you listed there I think Flowers I think you could go
26:01Douglas honestly over Wilson as well Flowers Keenan and Douglas would be the only ones that I'd be
26:06considering starting this week um maybe going Douglas getting that stack with Malik Willis and
26:11trying to get it there also saying my team stinks and I have to win this week to stay in
26:14the
26:14playoff hunt yeah I wouldn't be I can see the Michael Wilson thing because of the tough matchup
26:19I'm rolling with Zay Flowers again it's a tough matchup and the quarterback situation isn't great
26:24I get it he's just too good to ignore um Keenan and Caleb Douglas would be the other options that
26:29I would throw out there for you I think if we needed like a big home run swing you can
26:32go Caleb
26:33if you just need it down the fairway I think you can go Keenan Allen there um we got Kyle
26:38uh Kyle
26:39Siebert asking Blake Corum or Aaron Jones this week I would go Aaron Jones I think you're guaranteed a
26:44little bit more volume with Aaron Jones over Blake Corum so I would go with that one um and then
26:50yeah the Chivalry King the Wilson and Flowers matchups are so bad they're not great that's for
26:54sure and the quarterbacks throwing the ball to them also aren't great like they're bad situations
26:58I think Zay Flowers could potentially have the talent to at least make it work so that is my hope
27:05for you
27:05there uh and and saying so correct me if I'm wrong the Raiders are comparable to the Flames
27:09or would you say totally different um and and this is gonna this is gonna get you
27:14Flames have had way more success the last 20 years than the Raiders have had like it's the
27:19Flames fans complain about the mushy middle the Raiders have just screwed up draft picks like they've
27:24had high draft they've had a ton of high draft picks they've just screwed them up a bunch so um
27:31yeah
27:31like the the Raiders wish that they were at the Flames level of things now I do think Raiders are
27:37coming out of it like they do have um Kubiak who's a good coach right now and a good offensive
27:41mind they have Bowers who's an exciting option they have Gentee who's an exciting option and Max
27:46Crosby who's one of the best defensive players in football so there's stuff that is showing that
27:51the Raiders are coming out of it but I still think you could pick better and then I get you
27:55don't want
27:56to like fully jump on a championship level bandwagon right away although like you spend 84 nights a year
28:01watching the Flames I think you've earned being able to jump on a championship team bandwagon I
28:07would not I would not judge if you were just like oh yeah give me the the Seahawks or the
28:11Rams or
28:11something like that go with it um honestly like they're good right now I think the Bills one's
28:17kind of a fun one to um to kind of jump on because like Josh Allen is just like he's
28:23just fun so I
28:25think you can go with him and um and like they they haven't won the Super Bowl before they've had
28:30a
28:30series of heartbreaking losses basically every year for a very long time so I think the Bills
28:37is the best um bandwagon to to really jump on their end and if I were you
28:40you
