You know, some trips are just better when you can really unplug. Spend time with family, see friends, or hit the course with the guys on our yearly golf trip. This year, me and the boys stayed in a home on Airbnb, which happened to be a guest favorite, and it was right on the course. We could walk straight to tee off every morning, and it was just a short stroll to the local shops, bars, and restaurants. Staying in a place on Airbnb gives you plenty of room to spread out, cozy living areas to hang out. and all the privacy you need. Staying somewhere like that makes everything feel more like a home than a hotel, and you get a real feel for the neighborhood.

I'm already planning on how to go bigger and better next year. Luckily, there's so many options to choose from on Airbnb. So whether it's family, friends, or golf getaway, my biggest tip is to check out Airbnb, check out their guest favorites, which are the most loved homes on Airbnb, and you'll be amazed at what you find.

What a play! Can you believe this? No, I can't. It's time to dominate your fantasy league. Off to the races, and he stays on his feet. It's just going to go the distance. Now here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie, and Heath. It's mailbag time.

Yeah, it is Friday, December 12th. I am so excited for today's mailback. Welcome to Fantasy Football Today. presented by BetMGM, Megan Legendary. Oh, what a lousy mailbag with no Jamie last week. Now he's back. What's up, Jamie? What's up?

You missed another good week of fantasy cops. But listen, I've got a follow-up to a fantasy cops from last week where I think I may have been lied to and betrayed by an audience member. And I've got a follow-up to the follow-up from the guy who may have lied to me and betrayed me. So it's great. That's awesome. I know, yeah. It's getting complicated.

We got your YouTube questions, your emails, Fantasy Football at CBSI.com. That is the letter I. And Apple Podcast questions, Spotify questions, and more YouTube. All right,

we're also going to talk about consolation brackets and what you should do in terms of waiver wire priorities for teams in the consolation bracket. There's been a... There should be no waiver wire.

All right. Well, there's been something going around on the internet about team. that intentionally threw their matchup to keep someone out of the playoffs. So we'll address that. How are we doing? Happy Friday, Dan.

How are we doing? Good. I am excited to hear about your mouse in the wall. That's probably the first and most important thing I want to hear about today as we start the show. It's not important. It's what happens when you have mice. They die in your walls sometimes sucks. It's disgusting.

But I already talked about it earlier today, so I won't bore people with that. The preface to that story. You just have the dead mice in the walls. Yeah. I feel like the exterminator who works in your area of New York is like, you are his best customer. We've got roaches. We've got munches. No, I don't have roaches.

I was the old house. Now I have mice. I miss roaches. You miss roaches. Yeah. No, but Dan, what you missed at the, I told at the end of the, a lot of people I didn't hear this, was an hour and 15 minutes into the show. This morning, my cat took a big crap on my carpet two feet away from where I'm sitting right now. What?

So. Is your cat train? I've never heard of cats not taking craps in their litter bowl, litter box. She's 17. Did you clean it up pre-show? Yeah, yeah. It was stunk. Of course I did.

I couldn't have done the whole show. You live in a zoo over there. It sounds like, honestly, dead mice exterminator visits once a week. Once a week. Come on. All right. Anyways, washing your teeth in the kitchen sink. Jamie.

I haven't paid attention to this. But Fridays we get no Thomas. Right now, we have no Johnny Airport. Oh. No, he shows up. Interesting. From the golf course. We have long tried to figure out,

beyond the box score this week, producer Emma was Johnny Airport and producer Emma, we're getting into it. We've been long trying to figure out who is this Johnny Airport. Yeah. Johnny Airport's actually the one seat in the leftover league, left over league one. He had a great season.

And both of you guys are in the division finals of your FFT Open Divisions. Yes, sir. Well done. It's a great start. with Kyle Pitts last night. Let's go. All right. So we have a lot of news, a lot more news than usual, but we're going to start with your, oh, Adam is the Mac Jones of Fantasy Football hosts. He's having a really nice year. So I'll take that. Thank you. We're going to start with your YouTube comments. It's disrespectful. You're much better. You're much higher level than the Mac Jones.

Adam needs to sing Smelly Cat. Of course, Dan doesn't know what Smelly Cat is. What is it? No, I don't. Some friends. Yeah, no, I didn't watch much of friends. All right, who would you flex over Brees Hall in a PPR league? Brenton Strange, Blake Corum, Kisham Booty, Darius Slayton, or Isaiah likely? Full PPR. Kind of makes me want to lean toward Strange.

What did you say, Jamie? Jamie said, I would not flex any of them over Breesha. I'd play Breesall. Oh, or we could just play Brees Hall. Yeah, no, I'll just play Brees Hall. Okay. I don't know what this is, but I feel like it's not a compliment. Mr. Nice Guy says Dan is Ross 100%.

No, it's not a derogatory thing. I think you are, I mean, if you were one of the French characters, you would be Ross. But I am Ross. This is a definitive thought. Don't you think I'm Ross? I think I'm Ross. Oh, I mean, if there's the three of us that are being assigned carries, then probably Dan is Joey.

But I like that. I like that. Yeah, he's the dumbest one. I'd rather be going than Ross. Stefan Diggs or Devin Neal, PPR? Go, Neil. Who's Jamie, Chandler? Yeah, could he be any more Chandler?

I don't know. Literally. Who is Johnny Airport? Yeah, we don't know. It is interesting, though. This whole Johnny, no Thomas, no Johnny. Very interesting. Finkel is Einhorn.

12 team Superflex PPR, point per first down. Jacoby Jacoby Resed or Shedurr Sanders I took overset Jacobi And by the way Marvin Harrison Jr. is out. A lot of news

We'll get to in a minute And Paris Johnson Paris Pat Fryeruth or Darren Waller Waller Waller, yeah for sure For sure The Friamuth's role has grown

Brock Purdy I don't know if it's so slam dunk But it's, you know Darnel Washington Most likely out So keeping around that too Darnel, or sorry, Drake May or Brock Purdy? Pretty for me.

That's closer. I think I'm going to go with Drake May. Have you heard of the golf-style consolation bracket idea? No. What is it? I have no idea. We have to know, Jordan. You've got to follow up with what it is.

You can't just assume one of us has heard of it. Dak or Drake? Dake or Drake? Drake for me. Does it, Jamie, quick aside here. Let me throw a question up so we can get Dan's, you know, name not covering his shirt. Does it look like Dan is wearing an eagle shirt? 100%.

No, no, this is not an eagle shirt. This is actually a New York urban professionals basketball league shirt from when I used to live in the city and play in Urban League, pick up basketball. I wasn't pickup basketball, it was organized basketball with refs and everything. I was a ninth man. if I'm being generous. If I'm being generous with myself. But I can hit open jumpers. I have a nice range of like 11 to 19 feet.

You put me just inside the three point line and I'm open and I will make it. I hustle on defense. I know how to box out. With all this talent, you must have had a great eight players. This is not, at 5 foot 8, that's not much of it.

I'm not offering much to a team. Who would win if you guys played one-on-one? won in basketball. Oh, I would definitely destroy Adam in basketball. Of course he would. That's not even, what, you think you'd win that at him? I mean, I'm not going to even bother arguing with you. Why? No proof. You have no idea what kind of a basketball player I am. You were the ninth man on your team and you just talked up yourself like you were Craig Hodges. No, I'm just describing my game. My game is I can make open shots, hustle on defense. I know a box out. I played as a kid, you know, but I'm not big. But against you, I have a massive

size advantage. I have what, 30 pounds on you? You're shorter than I am. That doesn't matter. I have about 30 pounds on you. I'm just going to back, back, back you in. Bang, bang, shoulder into your body, shoulder into your body, turn and put a layup on, but throw a ball up against the backboard. It's not that hard. You guys were Urban League champions with the, your bench could have started on most teams. All right. Quintan Junkins or Teteroa McMillan. and or Emmanuel Wilson, if Jacobs is out. Wilson would be my favorite if Jacobs is out. I would go McMillan over Juggins.

A few more here real quick. The easy must start if Jacob is out. Slayton, Reed, or Burden? I would go with Burden if O'Donzee is out. And Slayton, if O'Donzee is it. Slayton. Panthers, Saints, or Rams, DST? Saints.

The only reason I would say go with the Saints is because you get them for two weeks. So it's close between all three of these guys, and the Saints next week have the Jets. You know, I don't know why the Panthers DST isn't the answer here. They, well, at least more in consideration. They've been good in four of their last five games. They forced turnovers. They do give up a lot of yards, but they're facing the Saints. I mean, the Panthers are a better offense than the Saints.

They should be in consideration, but I think they're all close. All right. Uh, last one here. Christian Watson, Zay Flowers, Breece Hall. Pick one. I'd probably stick with Breece. Um, Timber Flowers. Roll PBR flowers for me.

Yeah, I think Breece is definitely going to get the touches, but I'm going to roll the dice with flowers. I really, I think I made a pretty compelling case. Breeze Hall is bad, A, and tough matchups, and B, when they lose by whatever it was, more than seven points, more than 10 points. And see, it's Brady Cook again. Like, this is going to be another disgusting 120, like no offense game from the Jets. And finally, Dan wears a nose strip and would definitely make guys chip in for an air purifier filter.

He's Ross. No, I'm not making people chip in. All right. Sunday morning, 11 a.m. Eastern. Oh, T. Higgins has been ruled out. Sunday morning, 11 a.m. Eastern. Join us, YouTube.com slash fantasy football today. It's the best way to get your starts and questions answered.

So let's give you an update on the news. notes. Marvin Harrison Jr. is out. Jonathan Gannon said he does expect him to return this season, however, but not this week. Devon A. Chan is expected to play. It was a report from the beat writer for the athletic for the commanders said that he didn't see Terry McLaren or Debo Samuel in the open portion of practice. So we'll see if we get an update on that. T. Higgins is out. Jamie, the chargers are going to ride the hot hand at running back. That sucks. They're at the chiefs. What do you think? I'm actually regretful that I drop Kamani Vidal. But what do you think

here? I would be surprised if it's if it's Vidal who's the one you want to start but it's not a bad day to keep him on your team I just think you got to treat these guys kind of like the bears and the Panthers and

the Steelers like there's going to be one guy that's probably slightly better than the other and we're going to be frustrated with who it is but this is a tough matchup. So I wouldn't be so slam dunk on you. either one. Josh Jacobs. Did I mention him?

He's limited in practice today. He's starting to feel better. Nick Chubb mispractice. T.J. Watt is likely out for that game against the Dolphins Monday. Mason Taylor is out. Brady Cook is starting for the Jets. Some very good Dan-related comments here. I bet Dan is that one player who gets the ball and immediately passes to the guy next to him.

Yeah, I did do a lot of passing. Like I said, if I'm not open, I'm not shooting. He's a great pass. That's all part of the team ball. First of all, are you good at basketball at all? No, you'd beat me. Okay, okay. I just want, I would hoping you would be like, yes, I'm pretty good.

I would actually like to play you in one-on-one and see if I could win, but now it seems like it would just be an absolute travesty for you. And then did Dan just grab the mug without using the handle? Twice. Once to rub it in. You don't need to use. So you want me to grab it like this? Yes.

Stupid. That's what the handles for. Stupid. Get your hand around it. You got a nice grip this way, too. and just who does that what you got to do you're so weird yeah weird too dude you're weird too let me just tell you that do i need to remind everyone of that giants game story what this hand sanitizer yeah you shook the hands with one of our fans and immediately scrambled like it's so not

true scrambled drangle drilling hand sanitizer where can i find any where do you have any do you have any do you have any no nobody has hand sanitizer on them i did that's not true all right anyway dad is Sydney from a long came Polly. Make it rain. Let it rain. Remember he says. Rain dance. Rain, man.

Rain dance. Are you ever seen Rain Man? No, actually, I have seen Rain Man. Oh, good for you. Wow. I have seen Rain Man. And I finally saw it like that's, so some of those good, good movies I've seen. Like I said, like a lot of the top tier ones, seven, like all those great ones that's

seven. Seven is a great movie. Like I would watch seven. It's not a top. I would watch seven in the usual suspects over Rocky. a thousand out of a thousand times oh come on you're so yes because you've come on you've never seen you've never seen rocky it it won best picture dan it won best guess what the usual suspect is a thousand times better what more well done movie than rocky and it's also you haven't seen how do you

know how do i know because one's about a story about some boxer coming up in philly the other's a really interesting story with a great twist but you can't say that but you have not seen it i don't need to see it to know that seven and the usual suspects are better than rocky i don't need to see it I know that. This is one of the worst takes. No. This is so bad. I mean, you're full of bad takes, and I love that about you.

But this is another level. Rocky is a great story. It's a great story. You think Rocky is better than usual suspects? Rocky is much better than usual suspects. They're different. They're both great, but you can't say that one is better than the other one. You haven't seen the other one.

I know. Let's reel this in. One is something I'm much more interested in watching. That's because you don't know what Rocky is. Rocky is not just a boxing movie. It's a great story. It is like a per, it's great acting. It's a great sport story.

Yeah, personal, yeah. It's not even a, it's, that's great. That's all great. And I bet I'd like it a lot. You would. I would. But I also bet after watching it, I would say, yes, seven was a much better movie. But then you can say that, though, because you've seen them all.

Rocky or seven. I don't need to say it when I have this strong, this strong of an assumption. They ever tell you that I know I've told this story before, but this guy I knew, and I don't mind insulting him, such an, schmuck an idiot that's why you talk about me when i'm not no this guy i really don't like but he uh we were in the car in college i was driving him and he said something that was actually smart he said this is just reminds of you talking like seven one of the elite you know

movies whatever it's a good movie it is yeah and he said uh you know i think the difference between a good song and a great song is that no matter how many times you hear a great song you never get sick of it and i was blown away this was like The smartest thing this guy has ever said. And then he goes, the next breath, he goes, like, I don't care how many times I hear drops of Jupiter by train, I'm never turning it off. I was like, dude, that's your example.

Drops of Jupiter by train. All right, we're going to get out of here. We'll take a quick break. That's a really good song, though, isn't it? It's not a great song. It's like seven. It's like seven. It's not, you know, it's a, dude.

The fact that you think seven is not an elite movie. It's not. I'm like that you're like, oh, Rocky's better than seven. One best picture. Crazy that you think, Pat. I think the fact that in the last two minutes, Adam's shoulders have raised more than they have all week. It's pretty exciting.

I feel like Ross Geller is a shoulder razor too. I feel like I can picture that. This is insane. I can't believe we're debating 7 versus Rocky, and I'm on the crazy one. No, no, no, no. You've never seen it? Seven is a great movie.

Seven is a great movie. Unique movie. But you can't sit here and say one is better than the other without having seen the other. Okay. It's like I can definitely sit here and say that, yeah, you can do that. You can do that. You can't. You can't.

You can do. Like I don't need to see every movie in the world to know that one movie is better than another. It's crazy to me. It's like, oh, like I'm just trying to think of an example. Like there is none because it doesn't exist. Okay. What's the movie, the series that Adam Sandler keeps doing, they just make money off of and

the collect money, the parents one or whatever, parent trap or no, what is it? A grown-ups? Yeah, grown-ups. It's like if I can sit here, Jamie, and tell you, oh, yeah, the usual suspects is better than grown-ups four without seeing grown-ups for. That you can when you're talking about something that's not in the same realm of being good. That's not good. Rocky is not in the same realm as seven.

Yeah, okay. It won best picture. It launched one of the most successful movie franchises. You're insane. It's a great movie. It's going to blow your mind. I cannot wait for you to watch that movie. We're going to take a break.

It's not an Eagle shirt. Urban League basketball, baby. It's an Eagle shirt. It's not my fault. We had the Kelly Green team, okay? We don't get to choose our colors. You have a Kelly Green team with wings on it. And yet you won't see Rocky.

Well, anyone who's lived in New York can attest to this and has played in these leagues. Think of a look. I see it, Dad. It looks like, all right. This is from Drew. Fly, Eagles, fly. Never. No, you can't do that.

You can't do that. My friend, two Giants fans made a huge, huge bet, and the loser of the bet had to wear an Eagles jersey and all Eagles gear to a Giants Eagles game. How bad is that for a bet? That's awesome. All right, here we go. And the worst part is, he gave him two chances. Emails, okay. Let's go, like, kind of fast on these, so we have a lot.

I put a lot more in the notes today than usual, so we can answer more of your questions. from Drew, pick two flexes. Menangai, Brenton, Strange, Odunze, Burden, Corum, Adonai Mitchell, Jalen Wright, Kamani Vidal. Oh, boy. All right, we're going to eliminate Jalen Wright. We're going to eliminate Adonai Mitchell. We're going to eliminate Blake Corum. So let's go with pick two, Menangai, Brenton, Strange, Romo Dunzee, Luther Burden, Kamani Vidal, half-PR.

I'm going to go with Strange and... Burden, if O'Donzee is out, O'Donzee if he plays. Okay. From Donovan, pick two. Thomas is here. I mean, Johnny Airport is here. Dan woke up today and chose hypocrisy. Oh, man.

All right, from Donovan, pick two. Ken Walker, Christian Watson, Josh Jacobs, or Emmanuel Wilson. Walker, Watson, Jacobs, Wilson. Either one of Jacob. Wilson, if Jacobs isn't playing, Jacobs, if Wilson, or if he is playing. and then it's PBR or no? I don't know. Okay.

So it's Ken Walker. First again, Watson, and who? Ken Walker, Christian Watson, and the Packer starting running back. Pick two. Walker and Jacobs. Yeah, that's fine. Tight end. Tyler Warren or Isaiah likely?

Warn. Likely. From Thomas, 10-team non-PPR league start two receivers. Nico Collins, George Pickens, Rishie Rice. Non-PPR. Collins Pickens Rice Ooh Rice and Collins for me

I'm definitely not benching Collins He's the first one for me in there Two bad matchups for the other two I'll go with Rice Higher chance volume Pick one running back in non-PPR Chase Brown or RJ Harvey Chase Brown

Non-PPR? Yeah And Harvey scored three touchdowns in his last two games Yeah I think you got to go Chase Brown still And then pick a flex, RJ Harvey or Rishie Rice or George Pickens or whichever receiver you benched. Oh, Pickens.

Yeah, and non-PPR over Harvey? Non-PPR. I think I'll go Harvey in that. I don't like this Vikings matchup at all for Dallas offense. From Kyle. I'm currently flexing Isaiah likely over Cortland Sutton and Jacobi Myers.

Am I too high on him? Probably. It's the highest ceiling of the lowest floor. I can just play Myers. I'd sit play Sutton. Yeah. Who would you play, I'd play Myers, too.

Play Myers, all right. I'd play on BetMGM, because picture this. On BetMGM, you bet on your first player to score the first touchdown in the game, and his teammate scores instead. Well, if this happens, BetMGM wants to give you another chance at the end zone. With BetMGM's second chance for motion, you're going to get your stake back. If your first touchdown score, score second instead. So bet on any pro football player to score the first touchdown of the game.

If you're right, you win. If your player scores second, you get your stake back. and cash. With BetMGM's second chance offer, you have a chance to keep the fun going after the first player crosses the goal line.

Try a first touchdown score or wager with confidence today. BetMGM, make it legendary. All right, from Reed, start two. Rico Dowdell, Trayvion Henderson,

Devin Neal, Teteroa McMillan, Devin Singletary, and he says Wilson. I'm guessing that's Emmanuel Wilson. Oh, Michael Wilson. Yeah. If it's Michael, that's obvious.

First and foremost, you play him. He's one of two players this year to be wide receiver one in multiple weeks. So he's obvious. Wow. Yeah, it's crazy. Him in London. And then, what were the other options again? Rico.

Oh, I'll go Henderson. Henderson, Henderson, and him. Henderson, Michael Wilson. I'll go Wilson and Rico. Oh, Rico. From Jim. playing the number one team with a seven and with oh playing the number one team with a seven and seven team and i want to get into the playoffs i drafted in secret from my lap while out to dinner with my

wife and my in-laws my wife was in on it and my in-laws never knew this is my dark horse team that i'm writing as long as possible with that said start two in ppr wandole robinson jacobie meyers d k metcalf i'm benchy mecalf that is crazy I'm going to say I'm going to go against the grain here I'm going to bench Wondell Robinson I just think the difference between Wondell Robinson

with Jackson Dart versus with Russell Wilson and James is night and day from a fantasy standpoint and an upside standpoint I think I'm hoping that the Steelers figured out something with regards to how to move the ball and it has to go that offense has to move through Metcalfe. Okay from Jesse

I don't know. Wondell's got 53 targets in his last four games. That's hard to overlook. Yeah, but again, one of those is with, um, or two of those are with DART. No, two of them were James. No, two of them were James. Yeah, three with D'Rat. You said four. You said four games. Oh, sorry, four games. Yeah. So two and two and two. But again, it's like last week where

those Wondell targets were different types of targets are the last game with DART, I should say, right? It was back to the Jones type. Well, one game was no Slaten also. So, look, you had that, you had that Dallas game that was ridiculous, right? The lion's game was ridiculous. The lion's game was the flea flicker. Right. But also a lot of other stuff with Jamis,

like explosive intermediate in and outbreakers that he's not getting with Dart. It's a different kind of target. Like if you look at the last game with Dart, he got a lot of targets, but it also has the easiest matchup of almost anybody. On paper, sure, but it's going to be 30 and snowing, but we'll see. And windy.

I don't think it's good. No, I don't. Oh, ask him your question, Adam. Is it not snowing? I thought it was, I thought I saw 30. Let's see, East Rutherford, weather. I'm going to be the weatherman on today's show.

Sunday is 30. degrees with a chance of snow and wind. Okay. Precipitation 45% light snow, wind, 11 miles per hour. I don't think that game's going to be as offensive as people do. 11 miles per hour is nothing. 11 miles per hour is nothing. And I think it actually is just going to be like a lot of single Terry Tracy.

My question for you, Dan, was because I really have been a big advocate of Darius Slayton as like a number three receiver. I think because he had that game where he got called for the offensive pass interference on the long touchdown against the Eagles, which is a little question. then the next game he dropped a touchdown against the Niners. Yep. But your thoughts, my take has been he's basically splitting with Isaiah Hodgins as the number two receiver.

Last game, they were in three receiver sets a ton, so they both played a lot. But if they're not in three receiver sets a ton, who's on the field more? Hodgins, Slayton, I think it's kind of an even split. Do you have playing time concerns? No. I think it has played out that way because Slayton's been hurt in-game multiple times and have to like come out of the game come back in the game he's supposedly healthy now i think he'll be the guy over hodgians if he's healthy but there's not going to be every snap like the

giants are going to mix in hodgis he's a better blocker so and they want to play 12 personnel so you're right about that i think they had to play 11 last game because they were trailing so much by so much of the patriots okay uh according to kevin roth no real weather issues for this weekend yeah uh we have a cross the board in any game yeah it's just he has them all yellows no oranges Okay. So we have a pull up on... Mine is 11 degrees, but I guess we'll just expect

good passing in those games. We have a poll up on YouTube. What's the better movie? Rocky? Seven? Or haven't seen Rocky, but it's seven? No, it should... Well, that's funny, but...

Let me just tell you something. This is an unfair poll because a lot of people don't know or haven't heard of or haven't seen seven, but a lot of people have seen Rocky. Dan, how much... Jim Brown, have you ever watched? Again, none.

None live. I wasn't alive for Jim Brown. No, no, I understand not live. You weren't alive when Rocky was made either. But have you watched Jim Brown play football at all? Yeah, highlights. Is he good or is he not good? He's very good.

Okay, just checking. What does I have to do anything? He's no, Bucky Irving. Like, it's crazy that, like, okay, seven, this is a great comment from Pocky. I don't know how to pronounce his name. name p a h q i this is one of my favorite people in the chat he's always a guy seven is a film school is film school material not rocky yeah exactly because seven is a unique interesting movie that's different and it's not just a sports story about a guy i don't know what rocky's really about as a guy who comes

up with a boxer he's counted out like here he goes and he does it right like that's basically it's about it's about so many things i mean it's about this guy it just has a horrible life no one takes him seriously. Yep. And he gets an opportunity of a lifetime. It's about the American dream. American dream. Yep.

I get it. And it's great. I bet I'd freaking love Rocky. I honestly know that I would love it. But I would never come back and be like, yeah, that's a better movie than seven. You would.

And I said usual suspects. That was the other one I was saying. The usual suspect, I'm going to call the usual suspects overrated. Well, once you know what it, like it's all about the first watch for usual suspects. That's true.

I didn't really enjoy it. I watched it even, I watched it somewhat recently, and I was like, this movie's not as good as I remember it being. Because you know the twist. Listen, all three movies are fantastic. My, my gripe is that Dan is saying Rocky stinks without ever seen it. Yeah, it's a ridiculous. I didn't say it stinks.

That's my gripe is I never said it sinks. I said I bet I would love it. But I'm also saying, no, it's not going to compare for like a good, true, interesting movie like seven. This is like a new, right? Like, this is something you don't see all the time, seven. You do see the story of the American dream a lot, right? We do get a lot of American themes. If not in 1978 or whatever, I don't know.

Okay, we can say it's novel for its time. Seven is a great movie. Another American dream story or a movie like Usual Suspects or Seven or any of these other great ones. And I don't mean great. Usual Suspects is definitively last for me on this list. Well, I've only mentioned three movies. Yeah, like we can talk about others. I know, but trust me, like Rocky is amazing.

You're going to realize it's more than just. a boxing movie. All right. I know it's, I know, I told you, I bet it's amazing. I just don't think it's on the world.

There have been some amazing, amazing comments. When it comes to bad takes, Dan is the usual suspect. That is so true. Oh, by the way, I have some good dad jokes

for us coming up soon. We need to help Jesse out. Stafford or Burrow? Stafford. Stafford. I mean, it's obviously Stafford on paper. Stafford.

Pick two running backs. Jacobs, Judkins, Dowdell, Menongai. Jacobs and Dowdell. And if Jacobs is out? No, wait, say it again. Jacobs, Judkins, Dowell, Menongai. I'm going to go Jacobs and Menongai. I love Monongai in this matchup.

Wow, okay. I'm going to go Jacobs and Dowdell, and if Jacobs is out, I'm going to go Judkins and Dowdell. Just giving him a little bit of what I saw. I just think it's going to be cold. Nobody's going to want to tackle Monongai. I think you're a, I think you're a little bit of, overrating the cold weather effect. I do very much so. I don't want to say overrated because I

think most people underate it. I probably push the scale toward that direction though too much. So yes, I will say I overrated, though I do believe most underrated. How about Jefferson, Sutton, Abuka, and McLaurin in PPR, pick two, so not Abuka. Jefferson Sutton, McLaren. Jefferson, I'm getting roasted in the chat right now. Rightfully, so I'm sure. McCloren and I'll go Sutton over Jefferson See this is just not true Like Dan is the Skip Bayliss of pop culture takes

I feel like Skip just has bad takes to have bad takes These are just naturally me being an idiot I'm not like not forcing anything here That's the scary part of it It is the scary part of it But also like my favorite show ever is the wire That Skip Bayless wouldn't have that kind of take Bowers or Fanon

Bowers? I know Heath would say Fanon but I'll go Bowers still that's interesting I think I'm going to go Fanon I'm going Bowers crazy Bowers has more upside if you're looking for that

Fanon I think is the better floor From Quinn Pick 2 in PPR Dowdle Genty Neal Fanon That's tough Dowdle

Genty Neil Fanon And it's PPR or no Yeah I'm going to go Dowdle and Fanon What did you say Jamie Jamie Jamie just Mike collapsed right there still can't hear him.

He didn't know what happened there. That was weird. I've actually never seen that happen on the show. I could just down to that level. But Fanon will go with, as that's the first one that comes to mind. And I'm not as eye on Dowdell as Jamie is at all. Neil. I don't know that Jamie's super high on Dowdell.

He's just been not super high. He's just answered him in a couple times. Mel says, Dan, normally I have to talk to Alexa or Google to understand what the hell you're saying. But this time I'm rolling with you. Suspects is Tiles. All right. Let's see. We got one from Big Al in SoCal.

Start two. And just give me answers here, guys. Start two of these four. Brian Thomas Jr. Adonai Mitchell. Tyrone Tracy, Devin Singletary. I don't think you want to go both Giants running backs.

Yeah, I'll go Brian, Thomas, Jr. and Tracy. Yeah, those are your best bets. Good signs of Thomas Jr. coming forward. A little still concerned with Singletary stealing. Red Zone work, but I think they're going to lean on Tracy, so I like that. From Sebastian, I have three tight ends, and I'm struggling with who to start. Tyler Warren, Isaiah Likely, and Brenton Strange. Who's your favorite?

I'd go, Warren. I think I'm going to go Likely. Give me those names again? Likely, Warren, Strange. Wow. Strange. Okay, this is from David in Huntsville. It says War Eagle. And he says, if you're willing to, oh, he's talking about, remember Jamie, you were talking about having a backup on your bench that could replace an injured starter.

He says, in our league, if you're willing to put your quarterbacks actual real life backup in a bench slot, you can get the backup points. Only for quarterbacks, though, and he has to be on your bench. So that's an interesting thing like late in this season to do that. You know, you don't need to stash guys anymore. You just want to, you're in the playoffs and you have, you know, who, You get his backup, put him on your bench. It's not a bad idea. And from David, sit one.

Walker, Hampton, Neil, or Charbonnet in non-P-R. Walker, Hampton, Neil Charbonnet, sit one. I would sit Charbonne. Yeah, Charbonnet for sure. From Jeremy, start two. Mahomes, Brissette, Shuck, or Tuah? Mahomes, Prisette, Shuck, Tuah. Mahomes, Berset for me.

All right. Eric says... What do you say, Jamie? Mahomes and Berset. Yeah, okay. Eric says, what do you call an old snowman? Melted. Water.

Wow, that's up there for one of the worst. What is the best Christmas? I hate to say, Eric, no disrespect to you. I think that's up there for one of the worst we've heard. What is the best Christmas present in the world? A broken drum. You just can't beat it. That's not bad.

Again, to dad jokes. So it has as a high as, you know. Okay, okay, I got a lot of these. I got a lot of these. Why couldn't the ponies sing Christmas carols? Because it was a little horse. Yeah. That's pretty solid.

Yep. That's good. Getting better and better. What do gingerbread sleep on? Cookie sheets. This one's from Scott. I'm sad to say I don't think Dan will get this. I changed all my passwords to Kenny.

Now I have all Kenny Loggins. Oh, you got it. Okay. Hey, Dan, did you hear that someone stole all of the toilets from the police station? The police are investigating, but they currently have nothing to go on. By the way, let's bring this up in the chat because this is a good example. One of my favorite movies of all time, Shawshank Redemption. I can definitively say without having seen Rocky that Shawshank Redemption is a better movie than Rocky.

And that's it. Like, that's the argument right there. Like, is, like, is anyone going to argue with that? Yes. Here's another reservoir dog, another better movie. Oh, Rocky is 10 times better than... Hulk fiction. Another much better than...

Rocky is better than... One of my favorite movies of all time. Rocky is better than every Terry Tear movie. Godfather one. Godfather two. No, okay. Rocky's not better than the... Okay, Goodfellas, much better.

Don't have to see it to know. Rocky is not better than the Godfather. It is better than Goodfellas. It is better than any... It is not better than Goodfellellas. That's insane. I just don't think you can keep saying. saying this without seeing it.

I'll see it. Imagine it. I already know what's going to happen. Imagine a seven-year-old is talking to you and says, I never saw Eli Manning play, but he is not better than Jackson Dart. That's a ridiculous thing. Is it? I mean, his rookie season is.

Okay, fine. Imagine a seven-year-old is talking to you and said, I've never seen Matt Stafford play, or I've never seen Jamarcus Russell play, but Matt Stafford is a better quarterback. If you compare Rocky to Jamarcus Russell. My point is not to compare. My point is to say that you can have not seen things to still know that they're better. Like, I don't need to see Matthew Stafford play to know he's better than Jamarcus Russell. Yeah, because Jamarck wasn't a good NFL quarterback.

Rocky won best picture. What's with you? Rocky is not better than Shawshank Redemption. It's not even on the same tier. Oh, it is absolutely. It is absolutely. I can't have an argument with someone who only knows half of the argument. that's the problem

yeah that's fair that's fair that's how you guys see it and I see it a little differently I see you don't need to know everything to know something I see it with both eyes you see it with one eye closed that's how we see it we'll be right back with the fantasy box

not my best take I won't I'm not gonna lie it's not my best take but I stand by it unfortunately it's not your worst take that's the scary thing it should be your worst take but you've had worse all right we'll be right back this should not be my worst take Rocky's not like a top five top ten movie

like what are we talking about we'll be right back It's crazy for pot today. Canada's Wonderland is bringing the holiday magic this season with Winterfest on select nights now through January 3rd.

I will say that, you know, to defend Dan here. Jamie, let me interrupt you. Can you, I'll try don't you leave and come back in. We're having a little bit of issues with your mic.

And I'll wait for you to start to fantasy cops here. Jamie will be right back. Okay. We got good cops today. We got good fantasy cops today. Unlike my kids. Back to the future or Indiana Jones. Oh, that's a good way.

Okay. Okay, here we go. So I've seen both, but problem is I saw Indiana Jones with my dad. growing up and I was so young so I do not remember any Indiana Jones so I just have to default to back to the future which again I will take that better concept back to the future Jamie what's your take better movie back to the future Indiana Jones better movie uh Indiana Jones yeah I agree it's a good question though all right Jamie's back so I was going to say like defend Dan for a second sorry I think if if there was like a sequel to step so like there was an eight or

nine, you know, maybe that Adam would like it a little better because there's so many sequels to Rocky. Wait, what? A sequel to what? The seven. You know, so like, there was eight or nine. Yes, then we can rank them, but it'd be so hard to rank them because you'd be like, okay, I'd go eight, seven, nine, you know, but it'd be.

Yeah. I can't believe you said Rocky was better than Goodfellas, Adam. That, to me, is the worst take that's been said on the show, worse than any of my takes. And we'll use the, we'll allow the chat to apply on that, collect, date on they really consider it think about it and then get back to us maybe a week later you know i don't think dan's wrong seven is amazing usual suspects is amazing goodfellas is amazing but rocky also is amazing like yeah but adam was definitive in saying yeah i'll tell you why i don't like the last 20 to 30 minutes of goodfellas after uh well i don't want to spoil it after one of the main

characters get shot they go to like the you know he's cooking in his kitchen you mean the real life stuff yeah i i thought the movie was like a little too long and it got No, just I'll talk. You're going to go on, you're taking a path that only Dan could go on here. No, but even still, I, the thing is, you never want to take that path. No, I still would say Rocky's better. Rocky's incredible and it's so, it's so likable. I don't know.

You have to see it. It's really that good. All right, here we go. I'm sure I'll really like it. It's a great American story. I'm also sure I'll think it feels better. Well, yeah, when you predetermined your decision. No, I don't need to.

I'm not pretty, I will change a take. I do not have take up. That's one thing about me. I am not a take lock up. T-clock. I like that. Change a take. All right.

So last week, we had a fantasy copse from Aaron. And Aaron said, this happened last year, still a controversy in our league. Okay, he made a trade offer on Sleeper to a longtime friend. Eight weeks later, the trade was accepted. Oh, there was a text message where the manager said, I'm not interested in this trade. Eight weeks later, I wake up to a notification that the trade was accepted. the trade never went away. I immediately texted the commissioner

that it was not a valid trade offer anymore. I showed him the screenshot of the text message of the other owner saying no. But the commissioner said it was my fault for not removing the deal and refused to undo the trade. Eight weeks? Eight weeks, right?

So I said, this is ridiculous. Obviously, it should have been reversed. Now, I get an email from that commissioner. And he says, last week on the mailbag, you mentioned an email from Aaron. where he had a trade offer out there of Chase Brown for Addison for eight weeks. This was a Dynasty League, by the way.

Originally, the trade was text rejected but left to sit out there eight weeks later accepted. I am the commissioner of this league, and both guys involved are close friends. I instructed Aaron that this was indeed his fault for not knowing what's going on. He's very sharp and still, I don't know how he didn't see it. But I told Thomas, manager number two, to fix it and send the trade back as it was obviously in bad taste. Thomas did that, and Aaron wouldn't accept his pride got in the way of the deal not getting fixed.

We don't have a trade veto period, duh, trades auto process. And I just told them, you two are adults, fix it. Thomas tried multiple times only to be ghosted for a year by Aaron. Adam, you said in the last episode, quote, Aaron wouldn't do something like that. Ghosts this happened last year? Yes. Oh.

Aaron wouldn't do something like that. But clearly, you don't know this man. His pride and pettiness stood in the way. Now let's hear whose side you're on. Then I got another email from Aaron, the original fantasy cop's complainer. And he says, Adam, you are not betrayed.

Don't fall for Josh's lies. It is true that Thomas did eventually offer the deal back to me, but there's context here. I wanted Josh, the commissioner, to undo the trade. Out of principle, it should not have been a legal trade because it was eight weeks later. But the commissioner, Josh, refused. So he would not intervene. Now, he is correct that I am very stubborn. So the important context here is I publicly declared that I won't make any more trades with Thomas going forward.

I threw a big enough fit about it that he eventually felt bad and sent me a trade offer to reverse the trade. But I'm stubborn and I had just announced that I won't be making any more trades with Thomas. So I couldn't accept it out of principle. I wanted the commission. to do his job and reverse the deal. He refused, and thus the trade stood. Also, the commissioner has reversed trades before due to buyer's remorse, so it was ridiculous that he refused to do it here. All right.

So who sided you on? It was offered back to Aaron, but he was too proud to accept it. So I think Aaron is so wrong here. So wrong. You think Aaron is so wrong, right? The original guy who complained. I think he was right. originally to not, to be unhappy about the eight weeks thing, but to not accept it when it's

offered back to you because of pride, that is wrong. Just accept the damn trade and reverse it. Agreed. Right? Pretty cut and dry for me. Aaron, don't let your pride get in the way. Can't let pride come in the way of the way of winning in fantasy football. All right.

So let's talk about consolation brackets. And let's say six teams make the playoffs and six teams are in the consolation bracket. Jamie, should the consolation bracket teams have any right? to add drops? I don't think so, but if they are, it should be at the end of the week after Wednesday, Thursday, whatever the playoff teams are looking at. For me, I would say no, though. I say no.

Once you're eliminated from the playoffs, you should be locked from free agency. All right, you want to talk about the thing that circulated the internet? And this is, by the way, this is why, like, our league is not giving out prizes for consolation. They're not making it, like, you get a better draft pick because we don't want, you know what I mean? don't want that happening. Yeah. So Jamie, what happened in the league that, you know, it's been circulating across the web? Oh, yeah, that's great.

The, from David Ferronis from the Suntonnel? Yeah. Is that what it was? I got it. So basically what's happening is last week, going into the playoff this past week, going this week's playoffs, two teams who if one had won and the other had lost, the winner would go to the playoffs, the loser would go to the playoffs. But if both have tied, they both get into the playoffs.

So they both agreed, you would assume, I don't know how else it would happen, to intentionally bench their entire team. They both played nobody in their lineup, scored zero points each, tied, and both got into the playoffs. Yes. This is, by the way, this is one of the Dolphins beatwriters from the South Florida Sunset. He's so he tweeted this or he did it? No, he tweeted it. No, no. I mean, he's the original tweet.

Wow, he's just outing himself as a colluder. no i don't know i don't know if it's his league or this is his his tweet what are your thoughts on the fantasy football league where two owners benched their whole roster to assure a tie and secure playoff berth for both teams while keeping someone else out you're you're referring to the one from dove dove dove whatever's name is yeah right yeah he he copied this oh classic dove is that not classic dove i mean that guy is the biggest thief he's the biggest thief in internet history but also i've heard that he's not even running the account anymore he sold it so it's just somebody who's like oh yeah no i don't know if this is this is david's league or not i don't know

david personally so i can't say um but he's the it was the same tweet that that person did so i'm finding i'm finding it too if i can here but yeah i put it up to my league and there was a massive debate not massive most people agree like this is this should be textbook collusion right it's two managers of course you do something together yeah now one person argued against that saying I don't know I might allow it. Just from the text, it's implying whoever loses the matcham is the play. Oh, by time they both guarantee they're making it. They're doing it out of their own best interest.

So I guess the idea is like, is this collusion or not? And one guy says, I feel like collusion is more so when one team is clearly helping the other team at the expense of themselves. I don't know if I agree with that. I feel like collusion is just when two teams get together to impact, you know, upset the fair balance of the league. that's a good question is collusion like a ricky bobby sort of situation where one of them is losing so ricky bobby can win every time or just when two teams are acting together in their in their collective selfish interests i guess because like that's like tradebacks like i you know is tradeback illusion there's two managers helping each other out by doing something that should not be allowed that's what i think yeah this is so anti-competitive but i so i don't have an issue and this has come up, I think this came up last week, if you've locked up a playoff seed and you know that by losing

your week 14 matchup, you're going to guarantee yourself an easier matchup in the playoffs, right? Because let's say there's two teams fighting for the six seed. You're going to be the three. And you know, if you lose, this other team's going to get in. And if you win, it's going to hurt you, whatever. I don't have a problem with you benching your guys and tanking. I mean, a lot of people think the Chiefs did that in week 18 last year, because they didn't want to see the Bengals in the playoffs. Sure. So I don't have a problem with that specifically, but it's not you working with another team. Right.

That's the problem. I agree. I agree. If it wasn't, yeah, like, I still believe you can and should do that. I mean, there's an easy fix for this, by the way, right? Like the fix is what you have in, in, or you don't have it actually in your dynasty league happen because you're, you know, you're not a very good commission that league. But you're doing your best and you're trying hard, but you've just had a lot of mistakes over the years. But the easy solution is you have to set a legal line.

Like you have to put players in your lineup or whatever. Is it just set a legal lineup? I mean, right? As long as you set a lineup of players, it can't tie. Yeah, no. In, you're talking about in my dynasty league? Yeah, and your dynasty keeps seeing team score like three. Yeah, you can play wherever you want.

They just have to be specific to the position. You can't start a tight end at running back. But you can start an inactive player. Yeah, you can start whoever you want. Yeah. It became too difficult to police that. It is difficult to police. You have a lot of difficulties in that league.

All right, I got one more. This one is from Mike. One of our teams in our consolation playoff bracket just dropped Mike Evans on Thursday morning. They had him on IR most of the year, and then we were given a friendly reminder they needed to move him out of IR before the Thursday night game, and they dropped them.

I'm the commissioner, and I thought they would have dropped someone else. else like Nick Chubb or Jerry Judy on their bench. I asked him if he meant to drop Evans, and he replied that he did because he didn't think Evans would be too great when he returns, and it could be a pickup for someone else. This player has been in our league for about seven years, but he's still one of the most inexperienced players. Because of the timing of the drop, Evans won't be available until next week when waivers run.

We do not have a rule around undropable players, but it doesn't seem fair that one team could get Mike Evans in the semifinals. The team who dropped Evans and the team with FAB, with all the FAA left, like the guy was the most fab, are close, but I don't think there's any collusion. Do we let it go and see who picks Evans up? Do we make the team who dropped him, dropped someone else? Do we just freeze Evans and not let anyone pick him up? For full disclosure, I will likely be in the semifinals, and I could use the wide receiver help.

But I don't have the most fap. Yeah, no, this is clear. So the team that dropped Evans was out of playoff contention. Yeah, I think there might be a consolation bracket. Well, no, he said that it clearly. He is in the consolation bracket. Then that roster has to be frozen and Evans put back on it. Well, if that's their rule.

It's not their rule. I don't think that's their rule. I think their rule is the consolation teams are allowed to make moves and the consolation bracket is like worth something. And this is why this shouldn't happen. Oh, yeah. That's a terrible rule to have. I agree. But it's their rule.

So what do you do in this situation? And if it is their rule, then I'm definitively say it's fair game. He goes to why. You can't be managing someone's bad decisions. Yeah. Oh, you dropped him over Nick Chubb? Yeah, it's a terrible. I mean, he's been playing fantasy for seven years.

Tell him to listen to our podcast. It can't get worse than what's going on for this guy. There could be some collusion there if they think the people are close. Yeah. Are you sure this guy's not colluding? That's the question. I mean, yeah, I don't know. It doesn't seem like it's, you know, the commissioner doesn't really think that's going on.

All right, that's fantasy cops for you. Thank you. Let's go to our Apple podcast questions from Hayinator. Dear Jonathan, Swift, Zachary, and Mick. Are those Taylors? Jonathan Taylor. I don't know. Taylor Swift.

Zachary Taylor. And who was last one? Jonathan Taylor? Mick Taylor is a British guitarist. For who? I guess he was in the Rolling Stones. Oh, wow. That's bad for us to not know that.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. I was thinking coach Taylor Let's see Remember him? No Great show Friday Night Lights A TV show You never saw that

I never saw that I never saw it But I hear it's better than the wire It's definitely not as good as the shield I never seen it It's not as good as the shield You're 100% correct Hertz or Stafford

Stafford And then Yeah 38 point total On the Eagles game I'll take Stafford Pick of Flex DJ Moore Luther Burden

Brenton Strange, Chris Rodriguez. PBR? I don't know. In full PPR, it's honestly strange for me. It's the volume I feel the strongest about. His volume hasn't been that. His volume hasn't been that good. What did you say, Jamie?

Strange doesn't get a lot of volume at all. He was during his strong stretch before he got injured. Let's see where he's at right now. I'm telling you. They're going to throw 26 times. Who, the Jags? Yeah. I mean, the bears might also not talk very much.

much. I was still getting, he's still had six targets last week. It's not, it's not the most amazing volume in the world, but like, what are we getting from Luther Burden? I would play Burden if O'Donzee's out and strange. I would play Burden if O'Donzee's out, too. Since returning, he's five for 93, four for 45 in a touchdown and six for 27. Yeah, he's fine. I would go burden over him with, if O'Donzee plays, I'd go strange, though. Yep. All right, this is from Ryan, from Bourbon Country. How do you feel about the strategy of locking up a split running back room against the good

matchup. So starting both Steelers or this week, who would have been... Is bourbon country, Kentucky? Probably. Do you drink bourbon, Jamie? No. Do you drink, Jamie? I don't even know this about it. I just beer guy, yeah.

Beer guy, okay. I know Adam doesn't. I was curious what your spirit of choice was. What would you guess my... I have one spirit, the only one I want to drink, the only one I do drink for the last five, six, seven years. What would you guess that would be? Whiskey. Adam

Vaca Both wrong Not even close It's tequila Well Tequila is the best Because once you get That acquired taste for it

It actually starts to taste good Unlike the other ones So I would imagine whiskey It's the same for people Who like whiskey But I just never got into it But what it does that whiskey doesn't do Is no hangovers

Tequila's clear You have a tequila soda Add a lime You're done You wake up feeling great The next day You're hydrating while drinking Whiskey is just

so much sugar in it. I feel like you're going to hold up a bottle of tequila and try to sell it to us right now. Not unless it's a sponsor as a show. It's not what it wasn't, but you may have just opened up that avenue. I thought about that when we had that Devin Singletary, Tyrone, Tracy, two other kind of lousy options. And I thought, is there some value of just starting both Giants running backs and getting you know, probably good production? They're probably going to combine for close to 20 points.

Right? That's not a bad strategy given the state, like where we're at in fantasy across the board, specifically with wide receivers not holding up their end of the bargain as flex plays, which is a lot of the wide receiver position right now. So I don't hate it. It's the same. Like if you did bears against the Browns or the bear, right? Like that's both bears backs with them and unguay. Yeah. I think that's they run the ball a ton and you never know who's going to score the touchdown. Right. That's the problem. You could do both. Both Seahawks running backs against Indianapolis. That's a decent game script. Yeah. And so the guy that we compared the Giants running backs to with Brian Thomas Jr., we decided to split up the Giants running backs and go with Tracy and Brian Thomas Jr.

But he's not that good as an option, right? He hasn't been. He's got one game all year with more than 12 fantasy points. So is it that crazy to start both Giants? Or let's say you had the Seahawks guys in Brian Thomas Jr. I think you could do it. I mean, you can certainly make an argument for it, but like, I don't know. know. You get one guy that's just six, seven, eight points at most.

Six, seven. Okay. I've got a fantasy copse. Okay. All right. This is from, I don't have a name. I'm sorry. I'm in one of the leftover leagues with Jamie. A few weeks ago, I lost both of my grandparents within one week. Needless to say, that week, I was not very focused on fantasy. I dropped Mason Taylor from my bench and I didn't pick someone else up. My starting lineup was full, but I did not get any points that week because apparently I had an illegal lineup. I would have won my

matchup that week had I had a full bench. I noticed during the Monday night game and posted in the league chat, one guy responded but was less than helpful. This is my first time in a CBS league and I've never had a problem in other leagues with not having enough bench players. I'm in contention for a top playoff spot and that loss really hurts. Should I really be penalized for not having five bench guys on my roster? What say you, fantasy cops? I can't believe I didn't see that. Yeah. Yeah, Jamie's in so many leagues and he didn't see it, so. He manages a lot of I'm so sorry. I do think this is, I'll be honest, this is not going to be great. This is no shot at our product whatsoever. I'm going to stop you right there. I'm going to stop. No, no, I'm going to

tell you, you're going to talk about the bench thing, not having enough players. I don't like this bench thing, yeah. This is an option in leagues. Yeah, you could set this yourself. Right. And I need to find the commissioner. I'm out on the commissioners who have this option. I tell you why I do it. I do it because I think it's very realistic for a person to have, let's say, five players on their bench and not even know that they're allowed to have six. And that's happened to me before. So I make it illegal to have two few players as a way to notify you that you have an extra bench spot. And I will never let anyone have a zero because they didn't have enough players on their bench. I will fix that. I don't do it.

I will never penalize you for it. I only use it as a mechanism to let you know that you may not have enough players on your bench. As long as the consequence isn't, you lose all points for that week because you didn't have an extra bench. Yeah, I can't believe I didn't see that. Yeah, I'm sorry about that. I'm very sorry for your losses. That is really tough. We certainly would have tried to rectify that if we had been aware of it.

Yep. All right. Thank you guys for the questions on Apple Podcast. I'm looking for my Spotify comments. Here we go. Okay, it's from Blake. Dalton Kincaid or Tyrone Tracy, who is safer? Tracy's safer.

Tracy's safer, but I like Kincaid better. I would also go Kincade as well. Justin Herbert, Jacoby Brissette, or Trevor Lawrence? D. Law. Lawrence. Christian Watson. Have you seen a little T-Law lately on, Jamie? He's starting to feel it.

I only watched last week. He had all day to throw. But he made three. great throws downfield. I am, yes, getting quite excited about Lawrence. And also, the only times that he hasn't had a good fantasy game is when he's had a really tough matchup, which is not the case here.

The only thing is he pretty much never has a big game, you know? Yeah, no, no. He's the one at the key. Yeah. I'm glad you said that, Dan, because I watched some Trevor Lawrence, and I was like, damn, he had a great game last week. Good, yeah. All right.

If he can get hot, they're going to be a tough team. Yeah. I think they're pretenders. But it's such a weird playoff right now. The AFC, right? Like, we could have no borough, no Mojomes. Right. I mean, is it possible the bills?

The bills are probably going to make the playoffs, right? Probably. But last week's going to get in the playoffs? Yeah, they're like pretty. But last week's win, they're almost up, yeah. Okay. The AFC's easier to get into. No, lions, maybe.

Oh, no, yeah. No, the Lions bear situation. The thing going on in the NFC is ridiculous. We're going to potentially have an 11 and 16 miss the playoffs. Not likely, but potentially. Lamar Jackson might not make it. I mean, it's going to be a very different year. Top of the AFC, Broncos, Patriots, do either of you feel confident right now saying that's our Super Bowl team from the AFC?

No, I think any team that has a great, like a, any team that has one of those great veteran quarterbacks, people are going to pick. There will be no veteran quarterbacks that I don't think in the AFC. Josh Allen. Oh, besides Allen. Yeah, Alan will be in there, but that Bill's defense will probably let them down, I think. Yeah, but like, let's say that Bill's lose a game. again to the Patriots. Yeah.

Who's going to... I think people are still going to pick them to beat the Patriots in the playoffs. I'm going to pick the Patriots. I'm just going to ride with Drake May, but it's probably too early for this. Let's just see if Mahomes gets in or not. He's not getting in.

How are they getting in now? It's really long odds. Well, it's tough, but so... All right, sorry. Christian Watson or... Colts are in trouble, and don't be surprised if the charges are in trouble. Colts are done, in my opinion, completely.

Probably. Christian Watson or Jordan Addison? I'd go to Watson still okay Jacob this week like talk me off of the Watson case like being as if you really look at it like the volume hasn't been so great for Watson I guess he's just capitalized so well

on those downfield targets that he's been such a good fantasy option but over Addison yeah sure of course how about choose two this week Jalen Warren Kenneth Gainwell Rico Dowdle Amarian Hampton Woody Marks Cortland Sutton

so both Steelers Rico Dowdell Hampton Marks Sutton. Pick 2. PPR. Marks and Dowdell. Wow. Marks feels like the safest bet, I guess. Out of those, I might go

Sudden Marks. It's full PPR. I'm with Jamie. Marks and Dowdell. Yeah, I don't love Dowdell like that. I don't love them either. I don't love anyone. I don't love me either, but I mean, the Steelers guys are tough. Sutton's in a tough matchup. Who else was it? It's Hampton.

And Hanton's in a tough spot. Yeah. The Steelers guys produced, though. Both of them, they really do. I mean, so does that'll prior to the last game. I really hope the Dolphins win. I do not want to see the Steelers in the playoffs. I have no issue with the Steelers.

I just, they're so boring. And they have no chance. I think that's fair. No chance to win the Super Bowl. What are other options if we don't get that? It would be the Bengals or the Ravens. I saw noted, noted Bengals, Homer, understand it'll be so. His father was a kicker for them.

But John Breach did us something. on HQ and how the Bengals get to the playoffs. And it's, they went out. The Steelers lose out and the Ravens only win one more game. Ravens have to schedule. So that's possible. What's the Steelers? The Steelers have to lose out.

They have to lose out. What are the other Steelers game? It's too bad. The Bengals could have won that Pills game. They really screwed up with those pick six. It's just got two unfortunate moments. But what is the Steelers rest of schedule? I know the Ravens, that could easily happen.

They go Detroit next week. That's not easy. So it's Dolphins, at the Lions, at Cleveland, home against Baltimore. That stuff, that stuff. No, the Bengals are probably out. But the Ravens, I think the Ravens are going to win that division. Wow. All right.

A few more from Spotify real quick. Choose a running back and a wide receiver. Rico Dattle or Devin Neal. It's a little dattle for me. I'm going to go Neil. And Christian Watson or Nico Collins. We're going to go Nico. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

And start one. Cortland Sutton, Aaron Jones, Quintan Judkins, O'Mari and Hampton, Blake Corum. Is this PPR? I don't know. What are the names again? Sutton, Aaron Jones, Judkins, Hampton, Corum, pick one.

Judkins. By the way, Dylan's Hampton's been ruled out. Okay. I'm going Sutton. Yeah, I think I'm going Sutton. And Corey says, would you rather have Wondale or Quentin Johnson in Dynaston?

Oh, Wondale. Ooh, interesting. Wondale, I really regret not trying to make trade offers in our dynasty league, because trade deadline just passed. I would take a second round pick for Wondale. Yeah. Wondale, to me, is about to become, they're definitely drafting a wide receiver next year, a good one.

Yeah, but he's a free agent, Wondell. Oh, is he? Yeah, so he could be like one of those guys that gets a surprisingly huge contract from some team. Not live up to it. Okay. I'm not a Wando guy I think we've

I mean Wondell's really interesting because he like he has no catch radius but he's really explosive and he runs good routes so I don't know what there's going to be value to that summer

he's kind of like a bad or worse version of Josh Downs here he goes to New England yeah right I think he could be great New England would be such a good fit like that that

that Josh McDaniel's system is so good for his skill set all right let's get some questions from YouTube everybody Um, Pitman or Slayton? Slayden. No. No?

Oh, you missed the Pittman music. Is that what he's mad at? I'd go pitman. You're going to pitman with, with rivers? Yeah. Maybe I'm, I was a little... What are we expecting is going to happen? I mean, again, to be fair, tough matchup, but how, both him and Pierce were still very productive

of last week with Riley Leonard. Yeah, my only issue with that is that a lot of it came when the score was 36 to 13 and the Jaguars. And what do you think the score is going to be here? I mean, you can't expect them to necessarily be playing against back. Even when the score is that, though, we've seen like last week, like look at the difference between cousins yesterday versus cousins against McDonald's Seattle defense. Like we saw last week even when Seattle goes up, and this has been the case all year.

They don't let up on D. They play their style. It's aggressive. They're not playing. I don't like Pittman, but it's not like Slayton's a slam. here. No, no, of course not. I just think that this is going to be a total absolute travesty for the Colts offense

for the most part. Agreed. And I don't think they're going to let up Seahawks, they haven't really. Agreed. But I don't know if, again, Slayton, I know Pymn's not great either. I know Pimm's getting his targets. Oh, man. T.J. Watt underwent successful surgery

to stabilize and repair a partially collapsed lung suffered Wednesday after a dry needling treatment session at the facility. Yikes. Everything about that sounds crazy. I mean, that's what knocked out to Rod Taylor for the season, right? Yeah, I don't think it was a, I don't know if it was a dry needling, but yeah.

No, I think it was a bad doctor. Something with the doctor. Yeah, well, it was right. It was a long issue, and then Justin Herbert, and then the rest was history. All right. Sorry to hear it for T.J. Watt. I hope he's back soon. I got some questions here from the chat.

Let's go through it. And we've got Jacoby Myers or Michael Wilson. Wilson. Wilson. Jacoby Brissette or Aaron Rogers? Preset. Percette, yeah. I don't know.

Swift and Menangai, so basically you're asking Minangai or Rico or Rico? I go Swift and Rico. Yeah, I know that. I knew that was coming. I'm going Swift and Monongai. I think it's going to be an absolute onslaught for the Bears run game. Rico Dowdell or Joanne Jennings, PPR? Juan Jennings.

easy for me sure Lamar Jackson or Jackson Dart I have this decision actually in my guillotine league I am going Lamar Lamar Lamar Lamart Lawrence or Stroud What was that Lamar like Dart and Lamar combined

Yeah I don't get it What was like can I okay I go Lamar also Lauren Strout Lawrence out Loud Lawrence or Straut I'm buying two names and laugh at it like it's funny. Or Strauntz.

I go Lawrence here. I'm going to go Lawrence here. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Johnny Airport says, my dying wish is to see Adam and Dan in a three-legged potato sack race, but now I want the Rocky theme song to play while they stumble along. There we go. So Dan in our text chain last night said that if we ever, if we're playing against each other in any leagues, we should do some crazy bets.

So in the playoffs. In the playoffs. I'm trying to think of a way that this will work but I think like it has to be Adam beating Dan and Adam agreeing to us but like you guys recreate the beach scene between Rocky and Apollo

where you run and then dance in the ocean together hugging the ocean together hey I've never seen it so I don't know what a ridiculous scene that is Rico Dowdell Cortland Sutton and this is the movie you're saying as bad No that's Rocky 3

that's Rocky 3 yeah Rico Dowdell or Cortland Sutton Rico Sudden for PPR I'll go RICO Choose two Woody Marks

Rico Daudil Tyler Warren Kyle Monongai Kenneth Gainwell Full PPR too Marks and Rico for me Marks and

Menongai I'm big on Monongai this week Debo go ahead throw it up there Look at how Jack those guys are Oh my gosh

That doesn't look like either me or half them I think we got to recreate this with the two of you. Oh, my God. Oh, man. Well, who's faster? Much better shape. So, I have a question.

Do you think... Well, who's faster as a runner of the two? Adam thinks it's him, but I think it's me. But with that said, I'm so out of shape now. I really let myself go this winter in a horrific way. I went on a scale yesterday at the gym. I was disgusted with the number. I almost ballooned back to, like, remember that picture that circulated around from when I was accepting our ward?

DFSDA, I was real big in that one. So I'm getting back to that level. So right now it would be Adam. I made a goal to myself to get in better shape for this summer's match. What do they call football season, Jamie? Fatball season. Yeah, it's tough. I got to step up, though.

Like, I'm letting it get out of control. I can't stop eating sugar. I'm addicted to sugar. Oh, all right. All right. Sorry to disrupt the intervention here. Pick two in PPR. We answer this already.

Okay, that's why I thought. Yeah, that's on you. Played Kyle Pitts last night. Does that mean you faced him or you started him? Pick one. Hopefully started. Running back. Rico, Neil, or Aaron Jones or Tracy or Hampton.

Rico. I feel like if you are played Kyle Pitts, you need just to go nuts and you got to go the highest upside. So Hampton. I think Rico has plenty of upside. I'm with Dan on the mug. a grasp. Why? Thank you. There's nothing wrong with grasping a mug like this. Occasion, I'll do this if I need to.

Actually, I feel better with this. I feel more in control with the full grasp. There's anything wrong with this. It's insane. This is worse. I'm flimsy. It could spill out or something. Oh, for sure, yeah. It's very hazardous to hold the mug by its handle.

Hertz or May? May. Mariotta or Herbert or Stroud? Mario. Ooh, I'm Stroud on this one. Mariotta. Let's see.

The hug was epic. Jordan Mason or Kamani Vidal? This was actually a great comment by Life with Fife. We'll go with Mason in that spot. When to go Vidal? He has a chance to do that hot hand. It's a great comment right here. Oh, I missed it.

Adam cutting off Dan when he's pre-ranting. You need to, you're do a great job. Continue that. I need to be cut off on a lot of these rants. I'd say 93% of my rants need to be cut off before they start. Continue to stay vigilant. Last one. Likely or Schultz?

Likely. Yeah, likely. Better chance to score. Just better pass game. And we also had Metcalford. They both stink. What? I mean, they both stink.

Those are two bad options. Likely or Schultz? Yeah. No, those are not too bad options. Those are two good options, especially Shultz. The Bengals, he's been hot the last two weeks, and Shultz has been good in the last six games. Shultz, I think you're off on Shultz. I mean, when he's had brutal matchups, he's been bad.

When he hasn't had brutal matchups, he's been at very least. he's startable, and he's got a great matchup this week. Let's take a look at Schultz with and without Stroud games. Oh, 11 or more PPR points. 3 for 22 last week. Yeah, against the Chiefs.

They're really, I guess I said. One for eight, two weeks ago. Against the bills, the hardest matchup in fantasy. Like I said, when he has a tough matchup, he struggled. He has a great matchup this week. Justin Jefferson or D.K. Metcalfe. Last one. Jefferson.

Ooh. um all right now metcalf now i'll go jefferson thanks for watching and listening everybody we'll talk to you with our sunday morning show see you now
