Starting point is 00:01:39 No, I can't. It's time to dominate your fantasy league. Off to the races! And he stays at his feet. This is going to go the distance. Now, here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie, and Heath. It's fail back time. It is Friday, 1124 AM, and Adam is here. It's a horrible intro.
Starting point is 00:02:05 I was going somewhere that I was like, no, don't go there. That I, Adam is here with Dan and Jamie. And Jamie has a mustache, which is throwing me off. It just like the mustache threw me off, Jamie. Well, you look good. Very thin, long thin mustache. I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:02:23 Rate the stash, Dan. Oh, this is a good, this is a strong stash. Like if I, I wouldn't know what you're talking about. Yeah, what do you think? Rate the stash, Dan. Oh, this is a good, this is a strong stash. Like if I, I wouldn't be able to pull it off, I'm gonna go eight and a half at a time. Wow. It's a good stash. It is pretty good. It's a full stash.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Yeah, yeah, very good. Welcome to everybody to Fantasy Football Today, presented by Bet MGM, the sports book born in Vegas. We've got your emails at fantasyfootballatcbsi.com. That's fantasyfootball.cbsi.com. We'll read your Apple podcast questions, fantasy cops, and the YouTube comments at the end of the show. And hopefully as we go, news will trickle in and we'll be able to give you some updated news. So you guys were talking before the show about splitting the pot. And my question is, how much would the pot have to be at for you to consider splitting it?
Starting point is 00:03:09 Dr. Justin Marchegiani So there's different kinds of chops too. So there's the full chop that we were discussing, which is when someone proposes, okay, first and second, take the difference and you each get equal amount. Or there's sometimes where people propose like a partial chop, like, well, well, let's say it's like one K in the pot, we'll do 600 to the winner, 400 to second instead of eight and two or seven and three. So you see, so playing for something. Jamie and I are of the, of the belief that you just shouldn't be chopping at all. Um, but as Jamie said, like, we don't know, like if you need the money or if you're, if somebody wants the money more than the other person, sometimes it doesn't really matter. In the end, it is also always about the title. Like you want to be able to say you won that league and you want to have that year when you won that league. So let's say like, let's say, and I don't, the most money I play in any league is a hundred
Starting point is 00:03:56 dollars. I'm not a high state and that was too much. Right. I didn't want to play for that much, but got bullied into it. Um, let's say the pot was like $10,000. Sure. And winner gets eight, loser gets two. And the other person comes up to you and he's like, let's just split it, five each. Would you do that? I would personally never, because you wanna have something to play for.
Starting point is 00:04:17 I would do that in a second. I think the 60-40 is a fair way to do it. So the winner still gets some sort of reward. The second place doesn't get, gets a little bit more obviously if they win. But if you're going to do it, I think you do it that way because you still want to be, I want to be, if I win, I want to be rewarded a little bit more than the second place team. So I don't have a problem so much as if it's 60-40. 50-50 though bothers me.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Okay, so you only have two options. You're a 50% favorite. It's a total toss-up. The week has not begun yet. It's a $10,000 pot. It's either you're gonna do the eight and two or you can split it 50-50. What are you gonna do?
Starting point is 00:05:00 Eight and two. Eight and two. Oh, I'll take the 5K. I'll take the 5K right now. I had a buddy text me and they decided to chop it before the game started on Wednesday. And they were favored. And they just, you know, he said, my friend, he shares a team with somebody else. So I don't know how much that factored into it. But he said, he was worried about their face in my homes. And they had Lamar and they made
Starting point is 00:05:25 a bad choice to start pickings over. Uh, they started pickings prior to JSN and, um, McLaurin playing and they have Jamar chase. So I guess it probably didn't work out as badly as they, well, I guess it might cause they, they, they chose, uh, pickings and JSN set McLaurin. Um, but in any event, they were, they they were nervous and so that's why they went that route They'd be a lot more nervous now if they didn't go that route after starting I think it would like if I knew the person and it was a friend and he really wanted to chop it I think I'd be more willing to do it, you know, just cuz like I don't care that much ultimately about it You would take the $5,000. So who are you? No, I would not know
Starting point is 00:06:04 You're the guy at the poker tournament who starts asking for the chop when it's down to like 13 people. You guys want a 13 weight chop this thing? You know, in a big poker tournament. No, you got to play it out. Like at the fun of it is having something in the end. It doesn't really matter because for most leagues that I'm in, I'm looking to win the title so I can say I won in 2024. Like I remember when I won and you never won. Like that's still what I'm looking to win the title so I can say I won in 2024. Like I remember when I won and you never won. Like that's still what I'm playing for. But you also want to have something on the line in the matchup.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Otherwise if it kind of becomes a little bit different. All right. Let's get to the emails at fantasyfootballatcbsi.com.

Starting point is 00:07:06 No, I think you look good. You don't look that ridiculous. That's the thing. What did you have this morning? I don't even remember honestly think it looks natural I don't remember the beard. All right, I'm gonna say Yeah, I know I know that's what I'm saying. I had it that grow grew that an hour Yes, and I agree with Matt be vote like your life depends on it. Depends on it, folks. Vote for us. I don't know about that, but vote. Stafford or Tua. You get the QR vote thing in the top left?
Starting point is 00:07:30 I don't want to. No, I don't have that. I'm not the producer. I don't know what I'm doing here. Stafford or Tua. Stafford. Definitely Stafford for me. Waddle, Coker, Kshambuti, Brandon Cooks,
Starting point is 00:07:44 James Connor, Pick Two, and PPR. I don't think Waddle, Coker, Kshambuti, Brandon Cooks, James Connor, pick two in PPR. I don't think Waddle's gonna, I know he has limited practice, but. A lot of questions there. A lot of question marks, excuse me. Connor is easy if he plays. Yeah. And then I might go Cooks
Starting point is 00:07:58 just with the CD Lamb absence right now. Because the weather conditions in Cleveland could be awful. True. If Waddle plays though, I don't know if I'm gonna bench a talent like that for Cooks. I think I would go Waddle if he plays. This is from Benny. He says, Dear, Dixon, Wyshnawski and Johnston.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Steve's? These are, oh. You know what, Schneier,ier like former players turned an ounce. It now so disingenuous that you are pretending to know this. These are Australian players. Like no one was going to get that. Come on now. Australian for what?
Starting point is 00:08:35 Australian football. Yeah. If you ever watched AFL, it's actually pretty fun. No, I haven't. So there's rugby and then there's AFL, which is their Australian football league. And it's, it's like football, but you kick it toward, like you kick plays. So like, you're like the quarterback and he kicks and you, and you run it down, you catch it.
Starting point is 00:08:53 That's cool. It's kind of interesting. All right. Start one in full PPR. Chargers starting running back, Kendry Miller, Trey Benson, Jalen Wadddle, Jaylen McMillan, Calvin Ridley. And again, these are very tough questions because most of those guys are, no, you know, if Benson's going to be the lead back or Waddle and some of those other injuries there. I think I'm going with McMillan though for full PPR.
Starting point is 00:09:19 I would too. Okay. Next email is from Mike. Hunter Henry or Chigokankwo in PPR? Oh. Next email is from Mike. Hunter Henry or Chig O'Conkwo in PPR? Oh. O'Conkwo. O'Conkwo's role was so nice last week with Rudolph. I do kind of sneakily like Henry,
Starting point is 00:09:34 but I'm gonna go O'Conkwo, the role. I need a running back. Breece Hall, Jerome Ford, or J.K. Dobbins? My friend has the same question. That's so weird this was asked, but mine is Breece Hall. He was just asking Dobbins, first championship Dobbins or Ford. I told him in the end, I like the Dobbins matchup a lot, but I don't trust the role right away and Ford can explode on any play.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Had a pretty good role. A lot of targets last week in catches. I'm going with Ford. But there's Breeze Hall. Oh, there is Breeze Hall. I go Breeze Hall. Wait a second. I'm going with Breeze Hall. I go Breeze Hall. Wait a second. I'm going with Breeze Hall.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Okay. And James Winston's not going to start, so don't worry about that. Mike also asked, is fantasy karma a thing? I started with a new company this past year and they had a long running 12 team fantasy league that needed a spot filled due to someone leaving. They asked if I was interested and I said, sure. And I played coy about my fantasy experience not letting them know I've been playing for close to 20 years now
Starting point is 00:10:27 After a few weeks into the season my fantasy past came out and it seemed everyone was out to take me down haters There were four different trades that were just absolutely horrible made by teams playing against me for that week I called out these bad trades when they each went down and they said fantasy car, and I said fantasy karma will come back to get them. Needless to say, I made it to the playoffs in the first round, I took down one of the teams that made a trade in the semis, I took down another. And now in the championship, I'm take,
Starting point is 00:10:57 I'm facing another team that made one of those trades. If I prevail this weekend, maybe fantasy karma is a thing. Good luck. We'll find out. Hopefully. All right, here's one from Nicky Z in Sturgeon County, Canada. And he starts- Did we just hear a write in where someone was like, yeah, the whole league colluded against me,
Starting point is 00:11:15 but maybe I'll win. And he's beating them all. It's just like crazy. This is like open collusion, this league. All right, so Nicky has a Simpsons quote that says, if that's Homer, then who the hell's been putting beers on his tab? And I honestly don't know the quote.
Starting point is 00:11:30 So that's embarrassing. You're supposed to be the number one Simpsons fan, not only on the show, but potentially in the company. Apparently it's from season 10. After season eight, it's not, I'm not really. Get it together, Adam. All right, can you squeeze in a weather worry-ometer for the show?
Starting point is 00:11:47 Do you swap out guys like Malik Neighbors or Devonte Adams if it's torrential rain for Debo Samuel? What about Jaden Daniels if it's poor weather? Would you go with Purdy over Jaden Daniels? Something like that. What's our weather worry-ometer right now? I mean, we gotta see what happens right before kickoff because it could go any direction,
Starting point is 00:12:05 depending on, you know, the weather. Um, it's, uh, like Daniel's doesn't scare me because he's going to run, you know, so I, that's, that's a easy one. I'm still starting him and the receivers, I mean, look, if you don't have a lot of faith in the quarterback, then I think you might have to downgrade the receivers a little bit. So if you're worried about Rogers, who's's clearly played a lot of bad weather in his career in Green Bay but is older and you know not as effective as he has been then you know you downgrade Adams for somebody else if you have somebody else you know so it all comes down to what your
Starting point is 00:12:35 team looks like who you have. I don't know I mean we've seen some some historic games in bad weather we've seen some awful games this year in bad weather. You know, the 49ers, Rams, yeah. That's the easy one to point to at this point. So it's really, it's so case by case. I mean, I'm sure we get a lot of questions on it. We can answer it. I'm sure Sunday.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Tune in Sunday. It is really important to tune in for Sunday for that. Cause it changes so much at that, like by the minute. All right. This one is from Jacob in a city south of Detroit. What do you think Dan? Not sure.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Again, like I said earlier a few months ago, Detroit, fun place, underrated, really made a comeback. If it isn't October, look, I was expecting you hear things, but no, it was a good time. Did you like the pizza there? You did, right? The Detroit style pizza was really freaking good. And I'll say this, but no, it was a good time. Did you like the pizza there? You did, right? The Detroit style pizza was really freaking good. And I'll say this, having both, yes,
Starting point is 00:13:29 Luma Natties, Deep Dish, Chicago, it tastes pretty good. I'm not gonna argue about the taste, but it's like, do I want that thick lasagna of a pizza? Or do I want a fluffy, lighter Detroit style? We'd go with the Detroit style. All right, Jacob says, dear Frank, Vincent, Harry and Penguin. No idea.
Starting point is 00:13:53 Batman characters? Harry and Penguin? Yeah. Batman characters. Okay, who are the other three? I don't know, but they're part of Batman somehow. Frank, Vincent, Harry. I don't know, but they're part of Batman somehow. Frank, Vincent, Harry. I don't know. This is killing me.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I mean, the penguin part makes no sense. This year. I didn't see the penguin. Did you watch the penguin? No. I heard it was good. Did not see it yet. Yeah, I've heard very good things. This year, I decided to exclusively listen to FFT and get rid of the other two or three podcasts I would typically listen to. and I think it's paid off.
Starting point is 00:14:25 I'm in the championship of my 12 team keeper league. All right. That's awesome. Good stuff. He's trying to beat his friend here. So he needs help. Pick two flexes. Cooper Cup, Sam Laporta, Rico Dowdell, Alexander Madison, Taijay Spears and J.K. Dobbins. Do we get the format? No. PBR. All right, so Spears, if there is no Pollard, that's easy. If Pollard is in, I would go with who was the first running back you said? Madison? No.
Starting point is 00:14:58 So it's Cup, Laporta, Dowdell, Madison, Taje, Dobbins. I think Cubs can have a bounce back game just because back indoors, the narrative has been he sucks again. And I don't think the Cardinals are going to show up. So I'll go cup and Dobbins if there is no Spears. If you're worried about Dobbins, just go cup and Laporta. I would go cup and Laporta unless there is no Pollard and then I'm gonna go Spears and Cup Got an update for you here coach Mike McDaniel says he is optimistic about Jalen Waddle's availability. Okay, so there you like to hear that
Starting point is 00:15:34 Yeah. All right. This is from Nathan. He is the commissioner of a work league He got fired and he wants to win out of spite Let's go Half PPR there are extra he got fired at midseason as win out of spite. Let's go. Half PPR, there are extra points. He got fired at mid season as the commish. I guess so. No, he got fired from the job. Well fired from the job, wow.
Starting point is 00:15:52 That's much worse than. A little worse than being fired from the job. Yeah, yeah. Half PPR, extra points for explosive plays and performances. Pick two. Neighbors, Shakir, Macmillan, Garando. I honestly think I'm leaning toward Macmillan and Shakir.
Starting point is 00:16:13 I'm not betching neighbors in this group. It's not an easy thing to bench. I go neighbors and Macmillan. Same. This neighbors game. There's like, there's not much explosive available for him. Just given the situation. He's been fantastic to play through the injuries
Starting point is 00:16:36 and show that he's not just gonna sit because the team sucks. You proved it already. Go sit. No. Yeah, that's the other thing. I don't think neighbors is gonna play. Jamie sits everyone. Jamie, like if you were the coach. No, no, that's the other thing. I don't think they were going to play. Jamie sits everyone.
Starting point is 00:16:45 Jamie, you know, like it's not. No, he's done it. You want to win? No, he should be sitting. No, Adam, you're out of your mind. Are you crazy? Neighbors, they need to sit. Tracy, they need to make sure they don't win that Eagles game. You're out of that. I agree with. OK, I 100 percent agree with that.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Like, yes, that starts this week. Just bench them all. He's I agree with Jamie's proven his worth. We don't need to play him hurt with these quarterbacks. Jamie's a, yeah. That starts this week. Just bench them all. He's, I agree with Jamie. He's proven his worth. We didn't need to play him hurt with these quarterbacks. Jamie's a bencher. Jamie's a bencher. No, no, no, no. He's a Doug Peterson, sit Jalen Hurts in the third quarter.
Starting point is 00:17:13 He's done his job. He has absolutely done his job. He's proven his worth. He's injured. Like just, just let it go. It's not, it's not just that. Like he's played through multiple injuries at this point. You know what?

Next email is from David in Cleveland, Cleveland, Tennessee. Didn't know that existed. Dear Frank Estelle, Morty and Helen, I am the commissioner of a 10 team PPR league.
Starting point is 00:18:08 I've played, this is a funny email. I've played fantasy football. You know what, I'm gonna tease it. We're gonna take a break and listen to a funny email when we come back on fantasy football today. The Paramount Plus exclusive series, The Agency. The CIA sends us out to behave in a dangerous way.

I've played fantasy football all the way back to 2013.
Starting point is 00:19:10 My brother, however, has never played fantasy football prior to this season. And when mentioning it to him in the past, he has always blown it off and acted like it was stupid. This year we needed someone to fill in the last spot and I desperately pleaded for him to fill it despite never playing fantasy football. And he agreed. My brother named his team bird teams and it only took two rounds through the
Starting point is 00:19:31 draft for me to realize what he was doing. He was only drafting teams, only drafting players from bird teams. I and everyone else in the league assumed this team would finish last and maybe win a few games. Instead, he went seven and seven made the playoffs. And now he's in the fantasy championship. He's been riding Ken Walker and usually Tyler Algier as his running backs. His receivers are AJ Brown, JSN, DK Metcalf,
Starting point is 00:19:57 Zay Flowers, Darno Mooney. He has Lamar and Hertz. He's been streaming tight ends. My question is, should I be happy for my brother and his success this year or upset for him basically making a mockery of fantasy football by taking bird teams all the way to the championship? What it's er, you're saying?
Starting point is 00:20:15 Bird, bird teams. Bird. Like Falcons, Cardinals. Oh, bird, bird, bird. I'm sorry, does that not? Bird teams. No, you should be happy for him because now he hopefully will want to continue to do it. Right. Good point. Oh, bird, bird, bird, bird. I'm sorry, was I not? Bird teams. No, you should be happy for him because now he hopefully will wanna continue to do it.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Right, good point. This hooked him. This is the, yeah, this is what hopefully hooks him, keeps him involved. Maybe he'll have a new strategy next year and it'll be fun and funny. I mean, this just goes to show, like there's a lot of variants in fantasy football.
Starting point is 00:20:40 You read that team off Adam and I'm still unsure how he even won two playoff games with that team unless it was just all Lamar I guess and JSN. Yeah, I don't know just Part of the reason why I do the father-son leagues is because I want to get more people playing fantasy football Like you want to get people hooked on it and as many as any way possible yeah, I think it's also a good note for fantasy football because I actually believe it's like,
Starting point is 00:21:08 think about it like this, like DFS, fantasy DFS, an issue with fantasy DFS is that there's a really massive barrier for entry, in my opinion at least. The really good DFS players seem to win a lot and it's really hard for people who don't have the time and the resources to win in that. But fantasy football is its own breed like the what the season long that we that we play and that we preach its own breed like it's a good sign. This is a good
Starting point is 00:21:32 example of you can come in without experience and try an interesting strategy. I guess you can call it that and win and it's less of a barrier for entry which I think is more fun because then it's more inclusive and it should like like you Jamie, be able to spread more freely if it's not the same winter every year. Okay. Next year, this brother has to do animal kingdom, but not, not birds. Jaguars, bears, lions, rams, um, colts, bills. What are, what are, what are animal kingdom? So what are dolphins?
Starting point is 00:22:08 They count? No, I think it's gotta be like land animals. Like in the jungle basically. Jungle, but that's not gonna have enough. It's gonna be tough. It's gonna be tough. You gotta make it challenging here. Well, what about, who was it that was on with us?
Starting point is 00:22:24 That said, if you just draft uh, The Shanahan McVay tree. Oh, yeah, that was a bar. It's your bar. Right? Yeah, would that have worked this year? Not Niners, but yes Vikings. Um, yeah Vikings Ben Johnson we were and Johnson's part of that you get lions not lions. He's not part of that, but we were going to include him because they have like similar philosophy. Buccaneers, bangles. It was like half the league almost. Yeah, it's not bad though. You got like box bangles, Vikings,
Starting point is 00:22:54 getting good teams in there. All right. So question from Jonah, John who Smith or Cooper cup, half PPR. John who I think. Okay. How about Sam from LA? Pick two, Camara, Aaron Jones, Garendo, Tajay Spears. Lock and
Starting point is 00:23:15 Jones, I think you're most likely going Jones in Garendo because I don't think Camara is playing. Yeah. Then Spears if Spears is a dollar. Yeah. But Jones is your best bet. I mean, Camaro obviously plays you plan. Right. I wouldn't play him over Jones. No, no, no. Yeah. Yeah. And I wouldn't bet. I know you wouldn't play him over Spears if Pollard were out. No, you play. I would. Yeah, I don't even really want to start Camaro. Even if he plays, I mean, I w in the one league I have him, I'd start him over Jerome Ford, I think it would be a debate. It would be close between him and I would start forward over him. I mean, the dolphins
Starting point is 00:23:55 run defense is really, really good. Um, all right. And Baker or Darnold, uh, Baker, uh. Brian Dable said Tracy and neighbors will practice today. He's hopeful they'll both play something. No, I don't like that. I have a lot. You just said you want to know. I want my fantasy team. I got some Singletary. So, okay, it's okay for your guy to sit in.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Tracy, this is disgusting. He's tilted over not being able to play Singletary in his fantasy football championship game. Look, selfishly, I love watching, I just love watching Malik neighbors. I'd like to watch Malik neighbors play. I like the season to be over with the Giants having the number one overall pick. How about that?
Starting point is 00:24:36 Are you gonna watch Cam Ward and Shadur Sanders on Saturday? You can do some scouting. I'm gonna watch insane amounts of them, not only this Saturday, but for the next two months. Who do you want? As of now, my early lean is Sanders. It seems like everyone has Sanders ahead of cam ward. So not everyone, but many, and a lot of people think ward has a
Starting point is 00:24:52 lot more upside long-term, more of a project, more development. I have heard that it's Sanders. Again, I come lean back to this, like all these Miami fans, not. Like all in on ward. It's just a weird feeling. Like, I don't get it. Yeah, but I'm not really understood really what did you see what Sanders said no that he his brother asked him like where you think you're going and he said there's there's only there's only one that I think he said something he knows where he's going
Starting point is 00:25:19 there's only one team that has the one pick yeah that's what he said oh wow and you said you'll see it on my cleats. Richardson or Stafford on Saturday, if we don't know that Richardson's playing, what do you do in this situation? Oh, if he practices it all today, it will be Richardson if he doesn't practice and they say they're gonna take it up to the game, I'm going to play Stafford on Saturday. Can I give you another option? What if you could pick up a Bryce Young or be Joe Flacco?
Starting point is 00:25:47 I trust Stafford better than both those guys. I would consider. Okay. I actually think I do that strategy Adam and pick up Bryce Young with the idea of I want Richardson and if for some reason even though he's practicing, he does have to sit, then I'll put in Bryce Young and I don't think there's that much of a drop off from Stafford to Young in this matchup. All right this is from Dill the Thrill from a city in California west of Los Angeles. Oh west of Los Angeles but in California. You know the Bay Area very well uh and you know the Pacific Northwest you mean?
Starting point is 00:26:23 Pacific Northwest very well. We're already way past the Pacific Northwest once we hit LA. Again, remember, Northern California, great place. Got the Redwoods, beautiful. Yeah, I have no idea where I would like to live. Dillard Hill is from. Yeah, maybe, what was that one in,
Starting point is 00:26:38 if you've seen that weird show, Baskets, it's a good show with. Oh, that movie, that show is terrible. I could not even get through. You think it's terrible? I am a clown, it was the only time I laughed. Absolutely horrible show. No, that show is not terrible,
Starting point is 00:26:50 but Bakersfield, I think is the, Bakersfield? I'm going with Bakersfield as my guess. Bakersfield. I have Hertz, I picked up Knicks. Bryce Young is out there as well. Is it smarter to just start Bo Knicks on Saturday if there's no news on Jalen Hertz by then, or maybe pick up Bryce Young?
Starting point is 00:27:05 No, Bo Nix for me. Okay. Pick a wide, I agree. Pick a wide receiver. Jawan Jennings, Thielen, Neighbors or Macmillan? I'm going with Thielen. Neighbors. I'm going with Thielen.
Starting point is 00:27:19 And who can run a faster 40 meter? Well, let's just say 40 yard. Dan or Adam? Dan for sure. Jamie, your thoughts? I haven't seen you run, I've seen Adam run, I'm gonna say Dan's gonna beat you. Adam's skinnier, he's like 40 pounds skinnier,
Starting point is 00:27:36 which should help him in a race, but we just played tennis and I was definitely more athletic on the court, was I not Adam? Be honest. More athletic on the court? Answer not Adam be honest more answer that honestly answer that honestly who was the better athlete on that court you even said it that day I mean athletes yeah you're better tennis player just athlete running to balls getting balls making plays athletic plays on the ball you I
Starting point is 00:27:57 know I know you think this and I know you're not straight line race basketball I'm horrible at basketball. Yeah, there's no sport he can beat me in. Tennis was his only chance. Like that was it. You couldn't cover me in football. Adam, that is a joke. Obviously you'd have no chance in football.
Starting point is 00:28:16 First of all, I just played press man. I would just, you would not. You wouldn't touch me. You wouldn't touch me. You should be getting blasted on press man. Burying you into the ground. First five yards contact is all good. All right, pick a one and a half PPR.
Starting point is 00:28:29 Tyrone Tracy, Kamani Vidal, Taijay Spears, Benson or Carter. This is such a weird question again, because of the injuries, but look, if any of these guys are in role, I think if Benson or Spears is in a full role where the other guy's injured and inactive, I would go with those guys. That's the route. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Spears is the easy one. But if, if like, if, if Connor is out and Tracy is in, would you go with Benson over Tracy? No, no, me either. Would you go by Dell over Tracy? If Dobbins are out? No, no way on Vidal. All right. This one we need a flex here in PPR. Kamani Vidal, Amir Abdullah, Jalen Coker, Chig Oconquo.
Starting point is 00:29:13 This is from Trace. Chig for me. It's between Oconquo and Abdullah. It's full PPR. Full PPR. Yeah, I go Oconquo. From Emmanuel, if Garendo doesn't play, would you go Amir Abdullah or Kendri Miller? Abdullah. Yeah. Cleo Shakir or Debo Samuel?
Starting point is 00:29:34 I'm going Debo. Go Shire. Final get final answer is going to be Shakir. Unless the weather's awful. And Chig, Ertz, or Kraft? Chig. Comment from the chat. Dan's the kind of guy who thinks he'd beat Adam at any sport even without hearing
Starting point is 00:29:57 what the sport is in advance. Well, yeah, of course, because I've played him in one sport. It was his best sport and I won six what? Six, two, six, oh. It's also your best sport. No, it's not. What's your best sport? At this point it's probably golf.
Starting point is 00:30:10 Okay, golf doesn't count. Why not? I don't golf, like I, that's just. Is that my fault? No, but I know how to play football, I don't know how to golf. But you better play football any day, there's no chance you'd have any chance.
Starting point is 00:30:21 Is a better swimmer? I'm not a very good swimmer. I'm not a great swimmer, but I'm better than you. I think I think I'm better than you at swimming. I don't think so buddy. I don't think you got anything. The straight line. Your best bet might just be a 40 yard dash. They are preparing. Can you pick it to start? Ooh. All right. Well, that brings me to this question here from
Starting point is 00:30:38 Caleb. Okay. He started Kaymi Fairbairn. So should he go with Adam Thielen or Brian Robinson Jr, Marvin Harrison, Devante Smith or Calvin Ridley? Making up for those big kicker disappointments. Um, I'm thinking I'm on Thielen. It's a big deal, man. That could be a 10 ish point difference. And his opponent is Brandon Aubrey. It could be a 15 point difference.
Starting point is 00:31:04 You never know. I think I'm on Thielen. It could be a 15 point difference. You never know. I think I'm on Thielen. Give me names again. Thielen, Brian Robinson, Marvin Harrison, Devante Smith, Calvin Ridley. Thielen. Thielen. Ben says, let's settle it.
Starting point is 00:31:17 Adam and Dan in a game of I Spy. Good, Jamie. You see our backgrounds. Who wins in I Spy? Yeah, go ahead and pick something, spy something, and Dan You see our backgrounds. Who wins an eye spy? Yeah, go ahead and pick something, spy something and Dan and I will play. In your backgrounds? In the lowest of low we've ever gotten on the mail back. Anything on the screen right now that the people viewing can watch.
Starting point is 00:31:34 This is, wow, okay. This has to end. I spy with my little eye. Oh, God. Man, I can't read your backgrounds there. Just go color something. Something white. You want the first guess?
Starting point is 00:32:03 Yeah. Sure. The, the cap on my water bottle. No. That's what I was going to guess. Thank you for saving me that. Something white. I'm going to say only two guesses for all of us. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:18 I'm going to say my draft board. Nope. I'm going to say the Giants logo on his Giants card picture frame back there. Nope. Well, I'm done now. I'm going to say the Jamie is going to say the bet MGM logo on the, on the screen yard stream. No, no.
Starting point is 00:32:37 What was it? All the people turned up their screens. The hat behind me. Oh, is it your background? Okay. That was legit. That was legit. Wow, that was the worst game we've ever played on FFT.
Starting point is 00:32:50 I would, I would pull the fans to find out if there was ever a worst game we've played on FFT in its history. I'll win the next one. And I beat you in rock, paper, scissors. There's no disputing that. You did you beat me? Yes, I did.
Starting point is 00:33:03 You, I actually, you said, Was it best of three or was it just one? Yeah, it was best of three. So not gonna lie. I'm actually pretty good at rock, paper, scissors. Then I whooped your ass. I think I beat you two in a row. Didn't even need the decisive game three. Yeah, sorry about that. All right. It's time for the fantasy cops. The fantasy cops are at the profanity cops are out. This comes from Ty, are out. This comes from Ty, Dear Prescott, Sunnyvale, Chandler and Gilbert. No idea. Wow. No clue. But you're the kind of guy that would be like, oh, Dax. Well, you've got to take a guess. That's the whole game. You don't just sit there silently if you can guess. Okay. In week 13, one of the managers in our redraft league
Starting point is 00:33:45 was trying to make the playoffs and they traded Lamar Jackson for the Chiefs running backs and Josh Downs. What? At the time it was a bad trade but nobody thought much of it. Now we're in the finals of our playoffs and a league member in the finals
Starting point is 00:34:00 has released a text chain with the manager who traded away Lamar Jackson. Remember he traded Lamar Jackson for the Chiefs running backs and Josh Downs. So he released the text chains with that manager where the manager stated that he was trading Lamar to a team that he quote needed to win that week so that he could get into the playoffs. Oh, the manager who sent the screenshots knew about this the entire time and was okay with it
Starting point is 00:34:25 until Lamar Jackson puts up 33 points against him in the finals. Now he is demanding the entire season not count and he wants his money back. Is it okay? Two questions, is it okay to make trades that benefit other teams to help you out? B, you know, what about this guy wanting his money?
Starting point is 00:34:44 No, that's collusion. And B, this guy, oh my God, this is the biggest baby in the history of fantasy football maybe. I mean, is it not? He's a hypocrite is what he is. Oh, he's a huge hypocrite. I mean, you gotta punish these guys
Starting point is 00:35:00 or kick them all out if this is the case. Cause this is a clear example. Now I know you think this guy for knowing about it and not saying anything about it until it came back to bite him in the ass is you, you have to penalize him as well. And this is as clear example. I know you guys think I'm harsh in some ways,
Starting point is 00:35:17 but it is a clear example of disband the league. That's it. Oh God. Yes. Disband the league out of this league is a joke. It's an absolute joke. We have collusion. You don't just ban the league. You can't just ban the league. You collusion is a joke. It's an absolute joke. We have collusion. You don't disband the league. You can't disband the league.
Starting point is 00:35:27 There are nine people that are doing everything right and three people that are- Get out of here. I can throw you out. No, you disband it and you put it back together with the nine people doing it right and the rest of these people involved in all the shenanigans are done.
Starting point is 00:35:37 They're done in the league. They're done. You trying to run a serious league? Is it really so bad to trade your players to another team to help you get into the playoffs? I think that's a good strategy. That's illegal. That's collusion, dude. That's literally the definition of collusion. It's two teams working together to improve.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Like, that's crazy. I mean, I guess so. All right. It's collusion. All right. By the way, those were thank you from the chat. Those were cities in Arizona. And we're going to take a break and come back with your Apple podcast questions after this on Fantasy Football Today. All right, welcome back. Let me get the Apple podcast questions queued up here.
Starting point is 00:36:13 I have a question for you guys. I was talking to my son, he was asking me these questions about time, like time of day. What time would you say the morning starts? The morning starts? Yeah, like when is it morning? If you wake up before noon, it's morning.
Starting point is 00:36:30 No, but I know what you're saying. When the sun comes up, I'm right back. I would describe the morning as. Okay, so thank you for saying that because this was just really an elaborate setup for me to finally claim clear victory in my argument that 1130 a.m. is the afternoon. Because you don't think that 1230 in the morning, 1230 AM, if you don't think that that is morning, clearly that's nighttime.
Starting point is 00:36:53 Yeah. Then obviously we don't need to be so, you know, tethered to this definition of, oh, it's before noon, then it's morning. Then you basically have only two times, you have morning and afternoon. So like, so I am right. I think everybody realizes it now. 11.30 is the afternoon. No, you have three times. You have morning, afternoon, and night. Okay, but we don't need to be so specific with AM and PM,
Starting point is 00:37:16 is this and that, right? Like we know nighttime comes basically when the sun goes down, morning is when the sun comes up, but in the afternoon, like we know what the afternoon is, and 11.30 is in the afternoon. If you don't think that 12.30 is the morning, then why would you think, why can't 11.30 be the afternoon?
Starting point is 00:37:32 Specifically by the definition, it's not in the afternoon. Sounds like James Connor will play. Jamie, you know, not now. We're debating way more important things here, Jamie. I just, look, there's morning, there's afternoon, and there's night, Adam. Afternoon starts at 12.
Starting point is 00:37:49 Morning stops at 11.59. No, that's ridiculous. Okay, fine, but when does, but you agree that morning doesn't start at 12.01? No, I believe morning starts when the sun comes up. Yeah, so that's what I'm saying. We don't have to be, it's not about the actual time on the clock.
Starting point is 00:38:06 It's about what's happening at that moment during the day. Yeah, but there's nothing like, again, we're told before noon and afternoon. Afternoon, 1130 is before noon. It can't be afternoon when it's before moon. It's not, it's not afternoon, but it's the afternoon there are differences. That's there's a difference between After afternoon and the afternoon. All right. Anyway, I win Apple podcast questions. I know kind of what you're saying with that second part. Yeah, you got you you know that I'm right I could I don't know you're right. No, here's the weather. I'm Bending a tiny bit when you argue with me and you feel like you're right, you attack me.
Starting point is 00:38:47 This is a very half-hearted argument against me because deep down you know that I'm right or that I might be right. You're considering it. I'm considering it. All right, Apple Podcast questions. We've got one from, oh, it's a fantasy cops one. This isn't fantasy cops at all.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Why would you put fantasy cops in the subject line? He just needs two and half PPR. Jacoby Myers, Jaylen McMillan. Maybe a smart way to get his question read. Well done. Jacoby Myers, Jaylen McMillan, Jameson Williams. Jaylen McMillan. The first two.
Starting point is 00:39:21 I'm actually going the other two, Jaylen and Jameson. Okay, so you each say Jalen McMillan, one of you says Jacoby, one of you says Jameson Williams. Yep. All right, this is from DannyJ32. And it's not just a comment, it's not a question, sorry.
Starting point is 00:39:43 All right, let's see if this is one, we go from Solito start one in half PPR Rico Dowdle or Jacoby Myers. Right for me. Wow, doubt all just a lot of Myers guy whatsoever. Okay, why not? I just feel like this is not going to be the same. Well, that's not necessarily that I'm worried about the game script as much as I just think this offense funnels through the hours when O'Connell is in.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Okay, comment from the chat. Adam and Dan are the brothers and Jamie is the annoyed dad. It sounds about right. Yeah. Especially when he has that mustache. Jamie looks like so much more of a dad with the mustache, no beard. Where are you ranking James Connor? James Connor will be like 13 or 14. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Like, I don't know the role, but if the role is the same, I would even venture upon saying he could be ranked higher. Dan, where do you think Jamie was born? Good question. It's not Florida, I know that. It's just not a Florida guy. It's not Florida. It's Northeast, it's New York.
Starting point is 00:40:54 Okay, where in New York? Maybe Manhattan. He's born in Queens. Wow, that gives him so- Isn't that just weird? What? Isn't that weird? No, it's cool, if anything. I didn't say it wasn't cool, I just, it's so't that just weird? What? Isn't that weird? No, it's cool if anything.
Starting point is 00:41:05 I didn't say it wasn't cool, I just it's so random that Jamie was born in Queens. I don't think it's that random. Like he's, when did you move down to Florida, Jamie? Oh, when I was two. Oh, you guys really made that move early. Not as early as me, seven months. I never like, I don't view either of you
Starting point is 00:41:24 as Florida people if I'm gonna be honest. I got another update here Just don't T-hick you don't I can smell Adam you East Coast guy and Jamie I guess could be considered a Florida guy. Just don't get that vibe at all though Did you just call me an East Coast guy? Yes, you're a Northeast Coast guy Okay, cuz I was gonna say Florida is on yes. Yes. Yes, yes, yes, but we know what we mean when I say that. Northeast coast. No, we don't. Yes, we do. Yes, we do. The tri-state area. I don't like this update on T Higgins. T Higgins, this is with Jeremy Fowler. He improved every day in practice and there's
Starting point is 00:41:59 optimism he can play Saturday barringring new development. I hate that. I have Higgins, Lamb and Waddle in a finals and not much behind them. It's so frustrating. I have Higgins in three finals. So, but- I think you should chop it up then. That's the one. Yeah, maybe they can reach out to him.
Starting point is 00:42:20 But that doesn't give me a lot of confidence in him. He's fine. That does not give me any confidence in him. All right. Jamie says he's fine. Look, it's not the best situation when you have Riley Moss playing and T Higgins less than 100% when you gotta face that secondary, but.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Right. I mean, given the circumstances, I'm not benching T Higgins. Also, yeah, that's a good point by Jamie. They have to win this game. They're gonna play him if he can go. All right, YouTube, let's do it here. Let's get your questions. Oh, I left.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Can you guys hear me? Yeah. All right, here we go. I bet it's gonna have the wrong camera. Oh, I love this. Look at that. All right, I move. I move my- You should go with this camera angle.
Starting point is 00:42:56 You know you can fix this in a half second, right? You guys wanna see the rest of my room here? You know you can fix this or no? I'm fixing it right now. What do you think, you invented StreamYard? I know what I'm doing. The fact that it hasn't been, it took that long means that you can do it.
Starting point is 00:43:08 I did it on purpose, all right. Is this like the time that you tried to get the picture up and you spent like 20 minutes and Jamie just sent you one thing in like five seconds and got it in? No. I have such a funny story to tell. I wish it were appropriate. But it's not appropriate.
Starting point is 00:43:24 No, I really can't. No, you can't do that. That's a funny story to tell. I wish it were appropriate, but it's not appropriate. No, I really can't. No, you can't do that. That's a tough one to do, yeah. I'm gonna try to tell this story. So I get a, I get to check my mailbox on like Monday and I get something from our boss, like one of our like major bosses. Mailbox, like email mailbox? No, like in of our like major bosses. Dr. Justin Marchegiani, M.D.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Mailbox like email mailbox? No, look in my actual mailbox. Okay. And I'll come back to this question in a second. Sorry, Brian. And I was like, oh, I guess everyone at the office must be getting something for the holidays. So I opened it up. There's like a nice note in there, which that surprised me because I figured like there's
Starting point is 00:44:04 no way this guy actually sent everything. I just figured it was like an assistant or somebody did it on his behalf. They're like, Adam, I appreciate all your hard work or whatever, like here's something for the holidays. And it was a Christmas tree ornament. I was like, oh that's really nice, like look what my boss sent me and I put it on my tree. I was about to text him with a thank you for the nice gift. And then I looked at the ornament and there were something inappropriate all over it that were kind of hidden.
Starting point is 00:44:39 Inappropriate anatomy on the ornament. And I looked at the handwriting and I said. You know what I know where this is from. You were pranked? anatomy on the ornament. And I looked at the handwriting. You were pranked. Oh yeah. Big time prank from Nando. He sent me like a sexual Christmas ornament. How did Nando know who your boss was? Oh, cause he used to work here. And I was 30 seconds away from texting my boss, thanking him for the order, which was on my tree.
Starting point is 00:45:11 And I said to my wife, I was like, this is not from my boss. That would have been so funny if you texted it. Did you know about that, Jamie? I know that he got you some things. There's more to come. More pranks on the way baby. Let's go. Let's go. Adam, I didn't know. This is a side question. You have a Christmas tree? Yeah, my wife's Catholic.
Starting point is 00:45:36 Oh, I did not know that at all. Yeah, it's huge this year. Too big. Too big? What do you mean? Just too big of a Christmas tree. Why? They love it too big. That's not that. It's just like, it's just too big. We don't have enough lights for it. It's just, you know, we went too big.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Now you got one extra ornament to put off. Oh, gosh. It was a pretty good prank. I was actually pretty unhappy. That was great. All right. Here's the question from Brian. Devonte Adams, Pooka Nakua, Brian Thomas Jr. And I'm not gonna read the second half.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Pick two and half PPR. Nakua and Thomas. Yeah, I mean, just looking at that, it's not easy because Adams is cool too, but I'm going Thomas and Nakua anytime. Their roles are probably the best. Just looking at like the last four weeks, I would say from a target share standpoint
Starting point is 00:46:27 and a volume standpoint, you can't get better than those two. Jacobi Myers, Marvin Harrison Jr. J.K. Dobbins, Sam Laporta, pick one. Dobbins if he plays, if he's out, I'd go Jacobi. I think I would go Laporta think I would go La Porta. Vikings, Broncos or Rams? Rams for me.
Starting point is 00:46:51 Yeah, Rams is a good spot. Devante Adams, Khalil Shakir, Romeo Dobbs or Drake London? Pick three of them. London, Shakir and Adams for me. Yeah, you're sitting Dobbs. Yep. This is Matt trying to get his question right. This is actually a good idea by the way.
Starting point is 00:47:09 For next year when we're raising money, Nando should ref any future Adam versus Dan competition or just be involved in some way. We need to get like a whole setup where like we got a ref, we've got Jamie and Dave on the call and we've got like, or something like that. I think it's gotta be like a triathlon of some, or no, I'm sorry, like a decathlon of some sort.
Starting point is 00:47:27 Well, tennis is gonna have to be in it because Adam wants his second chance at tennis and I want to make it 6-0, 6-0. Yeah, I think you go like, you go tennis, bowling. Oh no, we are not adding bowling. Oh bowling, yeah, bowling, let's go. I never picked up a bowling ball, I barely pick a bowling ball if we are not adding bowling.
Starting point is 00:47:42 I bet you that you are 50. If we add bowling, then I'm picking something. If you get to pick bowling, then I get my. No, no, no, we get to pick for you. Well, you don't need to throw in bowling. Yeah, well, it's gotta be something where there's. Is this a parody contest where you just wanna give him a free win?
Starting point is 00:47:53 Jamie, like, what are we talking about here? Well, I mean, obviously we wanna make it interesting that you're not beating him 10-nothing, Dan, I'm sorry. No, Dan is gonna say, I've never picked up a bowling ball in my life, and then he's gonna say, I'm pretty confident I'm gonna beat you in bowling. No, I will never beat you in bowling. I don't do bowling, but I'll play in beer pong.
Starting point is 00:48:07 I'll do that. It'll be, it'll be. I could do you in beer pong. I can play that. We could have like Jamie as automatic quarterback and do one-on-one rounds in football. That would be so funny. What about me?
Starting point is 00:48:17 It's not like we have actual quarterbacks that work with us, right? Like we can get it. Oh yeah, oh yeah. How funny would that be? Oh my gosh. Oh, funny. Watching us, if we videotaped that,
Starting point is 00:48:26 that could break the 38,000 or whatever we got for the last one. What about me makes you think that I would be good at beer pong? Nothing. Yeah, exactly. But you look like somebody would be good at bowling. You definitely look like somebody would be good at bowling.
Starting point is 00:48:43 Am I right, Jamie? He gives off the bowling vibe. He gives off the bowling vibe. He gives off the bowling vibe. I look like someone who would be good at bowling. I'll tell you why you give off the bowling vibe. You wanna know? Do you wanna know? Oh yeah, let's hear it.
Starting point is 00:48:53 Okay, one, you're not really athletic enough to be playing a lot of the other sports. Two, you're a little guy. Three, this is not as offensive thing. It's just your choice. You didn't really like drink or party in high school and college and stuff So it's like you're you have night out. I'm gonna go bowling right? I did go bowling a decent It's not a bad take. I knew you were somebody who bowled a decent. I just love that you immediately had a list
Starting point is 00:49:19 Matt says it's today's his birthday and his anniversary and his hamster died Trying to get this question read Tracy or waddle PPR. Tracy Tracy. By the way, Joe Flacco is taking first team reps today. Wow. Here we go. Like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:37 I don't like that either. I like that at all. I need two wide receivers in a flex AJ Brown, Terry McLaurin, JK Dobbins, Cooper Cup, Drake London. Uh, Brown, McLaurin and London. I'm going to go Brown Cup, London, Drake may or Michael Penex or Tua. Right now I have to a ranked the highest. If the weather is bad, I'll go may. I think that's fair.
Starting point is 00:50:01 All right. We are trying to get a lamb replacement here for Paolo and PPR non PPR non PPR. Coker, Yoshivus, Olavi, Tim Patrick, Mims, Zacchaeus. Zacchaeus for me. Over Olavi? Well, I guess if Olavi plays here. Although non PPR, you know, you might get that random touchdown. With this quarterback situation doesn't inspire. Yochivas or Patrick.
Starting point is 00:50:27 I'll go a lot of a fee. A lot of a fees in the keys if he's not. Yeah. Okay. I'm just go to the keys honestly. If Garendo plays, would you go Garendo Pollard, Connor? We need two of them. I would say Garendo.
Starting point is 00:50:44 Yeah. If the need two of them. I would say Garendo. Yeah, if the other two are playing. I lost CD Lamb. McMillan, yeah, McMillan. Oh no, McMillan, O'Conquo, Rico Dotto, or J.K. Dobbins. 12 PPR, it's McMillan for sure. I mean, you were getting like three catches, well, two to three from Dobbins
Starting point is 00:51:05 back in the day. We can't fully trust his role to just resume as it was though. I go Macmillan. Ford, Garendo or Tracy PPR? Tracy. Yeah Tracy. Ford. forward for me. Uh, Adams or neighbors Adams. Adam, uh, Dobbins lad or Garendo half PPR. Dobbins, uh, in the joke or chig lad for me also you go in Dobbins over McConkey Jamie in half PPR. Yeah. If you guys are both close for me, so I'll say what? Yeah. The joke or a conqo jig, the joke, if he's healthy and Adam saves all his bizarre takes
Starting point is 00:51:57 for when Dan is on, it's kind of true. I bring out the best in him. Daniels or Baker Mayfield. Uh, Daniel, I'm not going to bench Jade in the finals. It's kind of true. I bring out the best in him. Daniels or Baker Mayfield. Daniel. I'm not gonna bench Jade in the finals. Last one. Need two wide receivers and one flex in PPR. Devante Adams, T Higgins, A.J. Brown.
Starting point is 00:52:16 Pick two. Oh, and McLaurin and Brian Thomas. Okay, sorry. So pick two receivers. Adams, Higgins, A.J. Brown, McLaurin, Brian Thomas. Adams, Brown. Oh my God, you have, McLaurin, Brian Thomas. Adams Brown. Oh my God, you have to bench one of Irving or Jonathan Taylor?
Starting point is 00:52:29 Yeah, I guess so. Wait, but also you could bench both of them, but Brian Thomas, to me it's Brian Thomas. I didn't even see Brian Thomas at the end there. Brian Thomas won. I'm going with Thomas and Adams. No, Brian Thomas and AJ Brown for sure, right? Even with Pickett.
Starting point is 00:52:44 That's what I'm doing, and Bucky Irving. No, I're gonna play AJ Brown over Adams with Pickett. Yes. I'm gonna play in both and I'm gonna bench the running backs. Oh, no. Full PPR. Full PPR. My favorite players here. I'm gonna go Thomas Adams. John Taylor, Taylor with Flacco doesn't. Oh, Taylor with Flacco actually I would, cause he will get, he will absolutely get more catches with Flacco. So if it's Taylor with Flacco, I would start him over Bucky Irving.
Starting point is 00:53:14 If it's Taylor with Richardson, I'd start Bucky. And we all agree on Brian Thomas Jr. Dan and I are starting AJ Brown, Jamie starting Devante Adams. And actually Dan is starting Adams and Brown. All right everybody, good luck. All right, let's get a win. We'll talk to you on Sunday morning. Sunday morning. Good luck. Thank you for the year.
