That is Xfinity.com slash sports. Very cool. Time's running out. Get on that Xfinity.com slash sports. JMA, what up? How you doing, buddy? Doing well. Looking forward to talking about the activity we just did at lunch.

It was very fun. But we've got weather to talk about. Now, here in Florida, whatever, weather's always good. Sometimes it rains. It's never cold. It's never that windy. But you heard Kevin Roth, the chief meteorologist for Roto Grinders, several weeks ago. And he talked about the Browns games. They were hosting the

Jaguars. And he talked about the Giants-Chiefs game. And guess what? The quarterbacks were awful. Marquis Lee had a bad game. Travis Kelsey was fine. But it mattered. The win mattered. So we got Kevin back on today. Kevin, welcome back with all your Twitter likes. How are you today?

Oh, man, I'm excited to be back. And it's another really good weather week. So I'm glad you got me on to talk about it. It's a bad weather. It's like good weather for you. You love this stuff. No, no, no, that's good. That's good for me.

It's bad for people playing. Good point. Exactly, exactly. But you've got to make the right roster decisions. So you can follow Kevin, by the way, at KevinRothWX. Let's talk about the Colts and the Bills. Tell me what we got there, and then I'll have Jamie give his sort of fantasy feedback to it. Colts, Bills.

Yeah, I think that, to me, that's the game I'm most worried about weather-wise. A little bit of snow, talking maybe an inch, obviously. Very cold if we're talking snow. But that doesn't scare me that much. What scares me is that it's also going to be really windy. 20 mph sustained winds, gusts of around 30. And the wind direction, kind of coming out of west goes into the open side of the bill stadium and that kind of creates this swirling wind and they're kind of famous for

that swirling wind when the wind comes from this direction it's windy it's snowy it's cold i've got a bump down to passing and kicking and a bump bump up to defense there. I think that is the biggest impact we're going to see this week. It's pretty interesting, especially for T.Y. Hilton. Yeah, I didn't really like T.Y. Hilton to begin with. And Tredavious White's going to play. So I think this is just a downgrade to everybody but Frank Gore and LaShawn McCoy, which is really the only two guys that I was particularly looking at. You know, I've got to tell you, Kevin, this is good stuff

because the worst weather game is one of the worst games for fantasy, and we don't really care that much. So that is a bit of a relief. But Green Bay-Cleveland is another game that doesn't have a ton of fantasy options, but there are some. What do we got for Green Bay-Cleveland? Yeah, this one is kind of similar to what we're seeing in Buffalo, but maybe not quite to that extent.

Probably a few snow showers kind of off and on. It's obviously going to be cold. And then again, we're looking at the winds here, 15 to 20 mile per hour sustained winds, a little bump down from what we're seeing there in Buffalo. But still, in my mind, this is an impact to kickers for sure. I just wouldn't mess with them in the cold and the snow and the wind. And also a slight bump down to the passing game. So Josh Gordon, you know, a big option. Is he going to be completely taken away? Not in my mind, but maybe one or two deep balls just don't connect the way that they normally would in better weather.

What do you think? I'm still starting Josh Gordon. Maybe you downgrade him in daily, but if you have him in seasonal, I think it could be a slant and he's gone. Feel the same way about Devontae Adams? Yeah. You wake up on Sunday and it's a freaking blizzard in Cleveland. You remember there's been some games like that in the past.

What do you do with the rankings in those cases? Then it's a different story. Then they're completely downgraded. But we're not expecting that kind of snow, right, Kevin? No. No. I think we're looking at kind of off and on snow showers, maybe enough to stick on the ground. But I'm not worried about the snow.

It's the wind. And you mentioned a good point. I mean, Josh Gordon can still take a short or intermediate route to the house real quick. So I'm not saying fade the guy, but I'm just giving a little bump down to him. All right. What about the Cowboys and the Giants on Sunday? A little bit of snow early in the morning. It should be gone by game time.

Winds there, more 10 to 15 mile per hour sustained. Gusts up to 25. Now we're getting into really minor impact stuff. So I think the passing game, probably fine. Kicking game, slight bump down, but I'm not overly concerned there. I'd say you probably stick with all your options.

Alright, hey, the Giants are going to stick with Eli Manning. Not fantasy owners, but we will stick with Dak Prescott. Good to go. I saw you went to Africa, Kevin. You were on a freaking camel-hmm. All right. Good to go. I saw you went to Africa, Kevin. You were on a freaking camel like last week. I was.

I was on a camel in the Egyptian pyramids. Oh, cool. And it was pretty awesome. Downside, the food there is terrible. I lost like 10 pounds just because I couldn't eat enough.

Wow. What kind of food? What are we talking? I don't even know. It was kind of mushy. There was a mystery meat in a sauce, and it was kind of mushy. I was like, you know what? This isn't going to work for me. Incredible experience. Bring your own food if you go.

Welcome back to the States. We've got plenty of good food here. That's for sure. As soon as I got in, I went straight to Five Guys and just crushed a double cheeseburger. Like, oh, yes, to be American. Nothing more American than that. Thank you, Kevin. Thank you so much for coming on. Always good to have you. I'm sure there will be some more bad weather before the season is over, and you will be very happy about it.

Thanks for joining us. Thanks, Kevin. Hey, my pleasure. You know, I'm always looking forward to the bad weather. Of course. All right. That is Kevin Roth of rotogrinders.com. You can follow him on Twitter

at KevinRothWX. So a few situations to keep an eye on, but it doesn't seem like there's anything to freak out about. This just makes Tyrod Taylor even worse of a sleeper. And welcome, Jamie.

How's it going? Good, man. Apparently when you start talking about food in Africa, your stomach started growling. It was before that. Yeah. Then it stopped growling as soon as I heard that report.

We just went to – I know what would make you feel better. Get those bean boozles out of here. We just went to a burger place where they have – stop. Go away. They have Sega Genesis, and we're playing Mortal Kombat. It was really fun, but we didn't know any of the fatalities. It was pretty pathetic.

No, but I think the best one was, like, you knew some of the moves. Yeah. I had to look up to do some of the moves while you and Dave were playing. Oh, is that what you were doing? And Dave had no clue. No clue. Dave was the worst one. You gotta, I mean, obviously there are only, like, eight characters. You gotta get Scorpion or Sub-Zero, because they have the fun moves. Right. Um, Dave

was terrible. Yeah, he was just punching. But what we would have these fatalities, finish him! Like, kick the guy in the leg and he'd fall down. You actually finished somebody with an air punch. I did. Yeah, I missed. Completely missed. That was a rush.

All right, so any big injury news to update people on since Friday morning? A lot, a lot, a lot. Anything we didn't know? Yes. Okay, what do we got? So, Amari Cooper's been ruled out. Joe Mixon's been ruled out. Or I shouldn't say Amari Cooper's been ruled out. Joe Mixon has been ruled out. Or I shouldn't say Amari Cooper.

Doug Martin expected a start. Doug Martin is expected to start. Donna Martin will graduate. Robbie Anderson practices in full and will play. Oh, that's good. Greg Olson is questionable. The Valenia Walker is all set to go. Your favorite receiver of all time, Rashard Matthews, is good to go.

We're still waiting to see on Sterling Shepard. Braxton Miller rolled out. That's good for Steven Anderson. All right, well, Doug Martin. Are we going to give him the 13-carry rule? If he gets 13 carries, he'll do well? I moved him ahead of Payne Barber. Drop Payne Barber.

Into your top 24? No. Both guys in standard. Both guys top 36. I think they're both flex options because it's hard to say. I mean, even though Doug Martin's the starter, he may not be the best guy. Yeah. All right, so it looks like that's a backfield to avoid.

We have a lot of emails and tweets, of course, and I have to pick the bonanza, which I'll do right now. Lion's box, lion's box, lion's box. You know what happens If you don't pick them And they get it right Right I'm not doing it again

I can't do it again No Get out of here It's so gross I think it's really gross You actually technically Did not do it You have to swallow

The jelly bean You want to hear something Even worse than that Jamie I spit it out I put it in a piece of paper I have no idea where that paper is What It's in this room somewhere

You are the dirtiest person ever You know right now. Come on. Make up for the last one. No. Come on. I'm going to spin it. Fine. Saints Falcons Bonanza. No. I'm spinning it. Here we go. No way. Lime. Lime was good. Lime or?

Long clippings. Is it this one? Yeah. So, anyway, let me get to some emails here. You answer questions. From Brent. Dear Steve, Connie, Javier, and Pablo. No idea.

Yeah, me either. Here are the lists of quarterbacks the Jaguars have faced this year. I'm not going to pay attention to you, so go ahead. You start. Okay, the gist of the email is that the Jaguars haven't faced good quarterbacks the Jaguars have faced this year. I'm not going to pay attention to you either, so go ahead and start. The gist of the email is that the Jaguars haven't faced good quarterbacks this year, except for like Roethlisberger and Goff, basically.

So, with that said, should he start Andy Dalton over Russell Wilson? I would, yes. I think Andy Dalton's in a much better situation. Andy Dalton's a much better match. Come on. You still have to do it. No.

This isn't fun for me. Eat it. This is not fun for me at all. Eat it. No. These are terrible. What's wrong with you? I don't like eating long clippings, and you do.

Andy Dalton is better than Russell Wilson this week. All right, fine. No, eat it. No. I'm going to tell you the truth, man. I'm not even sure. I think it's just that these are so old and they've been sitting out in the open. I think they're just gross.

Eat one. No. Yeah, exactly. All right, here's one from Corey. I know. That's the gross part about this. This is from Corey from the second largest city in Washington. I don't know.

Seattle or Tacoma, maybe? Sure. I have Baldwin and Graham. I also have the Jags DST. I picked up the Packers DST because I don't want to shoot myself in the foot by losing points on defensive Baldwin and or Graham score. So should I start the Packers over the Jaguars? Packers are so banged up with this weather.

It could be helpful to them. I'm still going to start the Jaguars. The Packers are so banged up, but this weather could be helpful to them. I'm still going to start the Jaguars. Yeah, again. Oh, that was the first one was so stupid. Steve, Connie, Javier, and Pablo's Narcos. Yeah, you know, I don't. Just start. Just start the best.

Start the best options no matter what. Don't get too cute with it. Whoever you think is going to score the most points is who you start. I know that sounds simple, but people make it complicated. Dear Sylvester, Bender, Homer, and Charlie. They sound like cartoon characters. Charlie Brown.

Sylvester is the cat. Bender's a robot. Homer's Homer. I don't know. This is from Bear. Peyton Barber, Doug Martin, Jay Ajayi, or the Garrett Blunt? So the Eagles or the Bucks? Yeah. I'll go Martin, Ajayi, Barber, Blount.

It was nice to rank them. All you had to do was pick one, but that was good. From Ruth, 12-team, half PPR. Start two wide receivers. Funchess. Kenny still. Oh, she needs one. I'm sorry. Okay, one flex. Funchess, Kenny Still. Oh, she needs one. I'm sorry.

Okay, one flex. Funchess, McKinnon, Stills, or Peyton Barber? Standard or PBR? Half point. McKinnon. McKinnon. All right. From Bill Byron in Palm Desert, California.

Colts or Chargers next week? You know the matchups? The Colts have the Broncos on the Thursday night. The Chargers are a tough matchup, I believe. How do you not know this off the top of your head? On the road. The Chargers have... Oh, Chiefs on the road.

Thursday. Oh, no. No, Saturday. I will take the... Oh, the Chicago-Detroit game is on Saturday, not Thursday next week. My bad. All right, Chargers at the Chiefs or Colts against the Broncos? If you've got to make a decision now, I'll stick with the Chargers.

If you can see what happens on Sunday for the Colts, if they play well and the Broncos are awful again, I'll go with the Colts. From Clark W. Griswold, dear Rusty and Audrey, PPR. Get away from me with those things. PPR, pick three. Marquise Lee, Kelvin Benjamin, Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Crabtree, Demarius Thomas. Marquise Lee, Michael Crabtree, Larry Fitzgerald. This is from John from Northwest Ohio.

Dear Aaron, Brian, Quinton, and Kevin. It's football. Aaron. Interplayers on a team. IR. Oh. Packers. 16-team standard scoring.

Chris Hogan or Jamison Crowder? Crowder. From JB. Hey, Jimmy, CJ, Jeff, Steve, Joe, and I have no idea. I don't know who those are. In a PPR league, should I start D.D. Westbrook, Devin Funchess, Nelson Aguilar, Peyton Barber, or Danny Woodhead? Westbrook, Funchess, Aguilar Peyton Barber or Danny Woodhead Westbrook, Funchess, Aguilar, Barber, Woodhead

Aguilar Aguilar it is From Cletus in Timbuktu PPR League I have Fitzgerald, Shepard, Crowder, and Marquise Goodwin My inclination is to flex Goodwin Over Crowder and McKinnon But I'm also a 49ers fan

So I'm worried that it's the fanboy choice. So should he flex Goodwin over Crowder? Am I a fanboy or a genius? I don't know if I'm ready to call you a genius, but I think you're on the right track. I have such a tough choice to make where I have two receiver spots and potentially a flex. But I'm probably going to play Geo in the flex along with Kareem Hunt and Lamar Miller. Where I have to decide between Josh Gordon, Sterling Shepard, Marquise Goodwin, and Marvin Jones.

No, not Marvin Jones. I have Golden Tate. Excuse me. Golden Tate and Doug Baldwin. Ah, ooh, Baldwin. That makes sense. And PPR. I'm probably going Gordon. Right. Right now I have Gordon and Shepard. I have to start two. Oh, Baldwin. That makes sense. And PPR. I'm probably going Gordon.

What about you? Right now, I have Gordon and Shepard. I have to start two. Oh, two of them? Yeah, because I'm going to play the three running backs. Maybe. It's Baldwin or Shepard. You would say bench hunt.

Oh, I would bench hunt. Nice. I feel this is the week. For how long? A lot of times. Right? Cowboys. This is the week.

Giants. This is the week. Bants. This is the week. Bills. This is the week. Yeah. This is the week for you to start looking into Xfinity X1. Go to Xfinity.com slash sports. Xfinity.com slash sports.

Xfinity.com slash sports. All right, back to the emails and tweets. And by the way, I said on the Friday show that Dave asked me what album he was listening to, and I got it on the second try. So we said, hey, what album was Dave listening to? We told you it was 90s rock and it wasn't Oasis. So most people have been wrong. The freaking first person that tweeted us, the first person got it right.

Unbelievable. It was Stone got it right. Unbelievable. It was Stone Temple Pilots' core. Which, by the way, is a terrific debut album. I mean, a debut album with those songs on it? You don't see stuff like that, Jamie. Amazing stuff. You should listen to it on your way home. Here's an email from...

Can I go right now? I don't have a name here, but it's a city in Michigan close enough to smell both Chicago and Detroit. And that would be a Dave thing. We don't know. name here, but it's a city in Michigan close enough to smell both Chicago and Detroit, and that would be a Dave thing. We don't know. Pick three in PPR. McCaffrey, Burkhead, Hunt, Geo, Diggs, Pirine. McCaffrey, Burkhead, Hunt, Geo, Diggs, Pirine.

Geo and Burkhead are the slam dunks. And then... McCaffrey, Hunt, Diggs, Piran Geo and Birkhead are the slam dunks And then McCaffrey, Hunt, Diggs, Piran P-P-R P-R-I-N P-R-I-N it is P.S. Die Hard was released July 15th Christmas movies do not come out in July

Of course you read this one From Jimmy Agalor or Geo? P-P-R Geo From Rich Dear some combination of... Oh, I'm afraid to read these because I feel like some of them are inappropriate.

So I'm just not going to read it. I have Goff and Hundley. I have the Eagles DST and the Packers DST. I'm a huge Eagles fan and a huge Eagles homer. So he wants to start Hundley over Goff. Okay. Because he thinks, you know, Eagles are going to shut down Goff. Is that crazy?

Yes. Oh, and he wants to start the Packers D over the Eagles D, too. I would go Goff and the Packers. Packers over Eagles? Yes. All right. This is an email from Kirk in Austin, Texas, traveling through Mexico with you guys supplementing my friends for a few months. All right, very good.

Very cool. Dear Jalen, AJ, Calais, and Malik. Come on. Jalen, AJ, Calais, and Malik. The Jaguars. That is the Jaguars. Two running backs and a flex from this group. Lamar Miller, Carlos Hyde, Gio McKinnon-Woodhead.

Miller, Hyde, Gio McKinnon-Woodhead. Miller, Hyde, Gio. Also, you can replace one of them with Sterling Shepard or Jarvis Landry or D.D. Westbrook. PPR? Yes. I would go. I don't know if it is. I lied.

Go with Landry or Shepard over Hyde. Okay. So Miller, Bernard, and Landry or Shepard. From Brett. I have a lot of mediocre running backs. Welcome to the club, Brett. Latavius, Murray, Burkhead, Drake, and Gore. I also have Crowder and Robert Woods on my bench.

Do I drop any of them for Aaron Jones? Maybe Robert Woods. If you drop Latavius, Burkhead, Drake, Gore, I'd drop Gore. For Aaron Jones? Maybe. Depends what you need this week. Got the Broncos next week. Actually, it might not be bad.

Yeah. Thursday game. You're not starting him, though? Just drop Woods because if Gore goes off this week, you may be inclined to use him. All right. This is from Mike in a town in New Jersey. Played Kamara and Michael Thomas, so I need to fill a running back and a flex here.

Who do I start? Derek Henry. These are not going to be as good as some of the other emails we've read. Oh, this is not from Mike, by the way. I don't know who this is from, but it's not from Mike. Derek Henry, C.J. Anderson, Devin Funches, Martavis Bryant. Pick two. Oh, one's got to be a running back.

Henry or Anderson? Bryant and Henry. Bryant and Henry, okay. This is a friend's league, Jamie. $3,000 on the line. Okay. So you told them Bryant and Anderson. Are you sure, now that you know what's at stake?

Yeah. Okay. I didn't say Anderson, though. You said Anderson. You said Henry? I said Brian and Anderson. Are you sure now that you know what's at stake? Yeah. Okay. I didn't say Anderson, though. You said Anderson. You said Brian and Henry. I was testing you. It was $3,000. I had to make sure you were sure.

Brian and Henry. Mike in a town in New Jersey. You go to New Jersey a lot. Where was it? East Brunswick. East Brunswick. Vaughn, Malcolm, Dexter, and Ray. Oh.

Let's see if you got this. This is football. Vaughn, Malcolm, Dexter, and Ray. Oh. Let's see if you got this. This is football. Von, Malcolm, Dexter, and Ray. Broncos, pass rushers. The last four defensive players to win Super Bowl MVP. We got it eventually. I was distracted. I have a hole in my sock.

Oh. Yes, you do have a hole in your sock. Okay, Flex won in a standard scoring league. Jordan Howard, Jarek McKinnon, Kerwin Williams. Jordan Howard. Dak Prescott or David Carr from Mark? Prescott. From Eric. I heard this stat about Leonard Fournette averaging 2.9 yards per carry

since returning from the ankle injury. Now he's playing Seattle. Would you start Jamal Williams or Aaron Jones over Leonard Fournette? If we're guaranteed, which we're not going to know, that Jamal Williams is the guy, I would say start him over Leonard Fournette. That's originally how I had it ranked. Okay, this is from Sean. Right now I have Fournette. What if originally how I had it ranked. Okay, this is from Sean. Right now I have Fournette.

What if Aaron Jones is the guy? I think if... He probably won't be. No. It's more likely that Jamal Williams is the guy. And if Jones is the guy, I doubt there's going to be a Aaron Jones is the guy report. All right, we shall see.

All right, this is from Aaron. Jarek McKinnon or Gio Bernard? Oh, half PPR. Okay, Gio. Gio. Gio it is. From Sean. I heard you guys talk a lot about playoff defenses with good matchups,

but no mention of the Redskins. They play Arizona and then Denver at home in weeks 15 and 16. Any interest in the Redskins? Yeah, for sure. Yeah, they're just not that good. No? Because they let us down with the Cowboys. Cowboys played great, though. Yeah, they did. not that good. No? Because they let us down with the Cowboys. The Cowboys played great, though.

Yeah, they did. Those are too bad. The Cardinals are not good on the East Coast, so yes, it is interesting. This is from Paul. I need help. Matt Ryan laid an egg. Start three. A.J. Green.

Yes. Dez Bryant. Devontae Adams. Marvin Jones. Michael Crabtree. And Jamison Crowder. So pick two out of Dez Adams, Jones, Crabtree, Crowder. Marvin Jones. Crabtree and Dez.

Crabtree and we're agreeing, AJ Green, right? Yes. All righty. This is from a Steelers fan in Boston. Hey, Terry, Neil, Cordell, and Ben. I know them. Quarterbacks. For the Steelers. I started Camara last night. Now I'm in a

hole. Who do I start? Fournette or Geo? Geo. Geo. From Santa. From a pole somewhere north of Vermont. Okay. Hey, Dak, Tony, Troy, and Roger. We know that too. One of the funniest things I've heard in a while while listening to your podcast is... Okay, no. I, too. One of the funniest things I've heard in a while while listening to your podcast is...

Okay, no, I'm sorry. One of the funniest things I've heard in a while is listening to your podcast at half speed. Sounds like you guys are all smashed drunk. I'm laughing so hard I almost crashed my car. Well, I mean, the only one that drinks during the show is you. So that is actually from Dan. Yeah, right. I drink water.

That's from Dan. This is right. I drink water. That was from Dan. This is from Santa from the North Pole. Hey, Officer McClain, Hans, Holly, and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The greatest Christmas movie of all time.

Sit two. Kareem Hunt, Jordan Howard, Alex Collins, A.J. Green, Keenan Allen, and Mike Evans. Standard scoring.

Sit two. Hunt, Howard, Collins, Green, Allen, Evans. Hunt and Howard. Hunt and Howard. I, Green, Allen, Evans. Hunt and Howard. Hunt and Howard. I said this to you on the radio show. I didn't say it on the podcast.

So I just want everybody else to hear my new argument for why Die Hard is clearly not a Christmas movie. On the radio show? Yeah. Pretty sure. You remind me if I said it on the podcast. I think it was radio show. There is never a scene in that movie where the McLean kids are with their parents.

I'm trying to get to them, though. There's never a scene in the movie when they're with their parents. If it were a real Christmas movie, there would be a scene of parents and children. The children, in fact, are almost completely out of the movie. It is not a real Christmas movie if there's no children in it. Well, the children are in it. They're not in it. They're in it for 10 seconds. They're never in it with their parents. There's no family in the movie. I think family is the number one theme of Christmas, right? No. What's the number one theme? The tree.

It's not a theme. That's why you think Die Hard's a Christmas movie. You don't know the difference between a theme and an object or a reference or something related to Christmas. Well, a reference would be a theme. No, a reference isn't a theme. Ho, ho, ho, that's a Christmas reference. It's not a theme. Sure.

Family is a theme. There's a Christmas movie called Ho, ho, ho. There's no kids. I mean, this is like – There are kids. They're not with their parents. There's no family. There's no family.

So there has to be a parent and a child in a movie related to Christmas. Find me another Christmas movie that doesn't have parents and children together. Well, there is a parent and a child in Die Hard. They're not together. There is a parent and a child. The only movie that you could say – Together in Die Hard. Yes, there is.

Who? The pregnant woman in The Office. Get out of here. Just get out of here. That is a parent and child connected. Did she speak to him? Did she speak to the child? You don't know what they're doing off camera.

Oh, yeah. No, off camera, it's definitely a Christmas movie. I will give you that. Here's one from Matthew. Holly makes sure that they get her a bench. What a kind Christmas gesture. Matt actually is in a city in Washington State

not named Seattle. Tacoma. He's in Tacoma, yeah. Half PPR. Okay, start two. One of them must be a tight end. Zach Ertz, Evan Ingram, Hunter Henry, Sterling Shepard, and Marquise Goodwin. Zach Ertz and Sterling Shepard.

Okay, from Emmanuel in space. Half PPR. Bonus. Bonus for a 100-plus receiving game. Rashard Matthews or Nelson Aguilar? Nelson Aguilar. Unless Patrick Peterson's out, which we may or may not have known by the time this thing is aired. True.

We've got Jared in Atlanta. Did you say Aguilar? Mm-hmm. Okay. Jared in Atlanta. I'm distracted, too. I need a running back. We know what you're distracted about.

A running back, a wide receiver, and a flex in a PPR league. Google it, everybody. Josh Gordon. Not at work. Josh Gordon. Well, pick a running back first. Alfred Morris or Gio Bernard. PPR. Not at work. Josh Gordon. We'll pick a running back first. Alfred Morris or Gio Bernard. PPR.

Okay. Pick a wide receiver. Josh Gordon, Sammy Watkins, Alfred Morris. Flex. That's tough. Gordon. Gordon. Okay.

Matt from San Diego. I was the number four seed. I made the playoffs in my 14-team league. I won by.3 points. Yeah. I spent the week prepping for the playoffs. Stat correction Thursday morning. I lost. I'm out of the playoffs.

No. Yeah, he's now the seventh seed. Any words of wisdom for the bad beat? Try harder next year. Try harder. Sorry. Try hard. The Christmas movie.

Brian from Carmel, Indiana. Fournette or Hunt? PPR. Fournette. Crabtree or Marvin Jones? Crabtree if Cooper's out. Jones if Stafford plays. From Aaron, Vernon Davis or David Njoku?

Vernon Davis, David Njoku? Vernon Davis, David Njoku. From Daniel, start two. Burkhead, Pirine, McCaffrey. Burkhead. Pirine. And Pirine. From Taylor, pick three. Peyton Barber, Jamal Williams, Aaron Jones, Marvin Jones,

Alfred Morris, CJ. All right, let's eliminate. Morris, Jones, and? Marquise Goodwin. Marquise Goodwin. Marvin Jones over Aaron Jones, yeah. Yep. From Joe, Collins or Morris?

Another tough one. Collins. And Jeffrey or Lee? Or the other running back? Standard scoring. Jeffrey, Marquise Lee, Alfred Morris. Marquise Lee. Wait.

Marquise Lee over Alf? Oh, no. Alf. Alfred Morris. From David. 12-team Uber PPR League. Oh, two points for every 10 receiving. Wow. Leonard Fournette or Burkhead?

Burkhead. Are there children in Rudolph the Red-Nosed Ranger? I don't know. I don't know, Jamie. You're the expert. Apparently. I'm not. All right, let me read some tweets.

I hate you. I got you. I don't know. read some tweets to finish. I hate you. I got you. I don't know if there's – there might be. I've never seen it. You've never seen Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer? I probably have. There's no children in there. You don't know that, or you wouldn't be asking me.
