Footballers AMA + Beat the Ballers, Chunky Life - Fantasy Football Podcast

percentage opportunities where he's throwing the ball inside the 20. I would just be curious what the correlation is to running quarterback versus, you know, Kansas City throwing the ball at 35, 40 times a game. Yeah, I agree that the percentage should stay pretty high, even if it comes down from 9. Like you said, if it goes to 7, that's still going to an outlandishly high number.

in which case he's great. He's going to be great for fantasy. But the difference is you look at your leagues right now and you think, well, gosh, every league I'm in, it feels like Lamar Jackson was in the championship. So if I just get him, I'm in the championship. But it's what Mike said. That's because he was drafted late. They had their running backs and their wide receivers early, and then they had Lamar Jackson. If Lamar Jackson went in the first round this last year,

He wouldn't have been in as many championship games, Allah, you know, Christian McCaffrey was pretty common. We will have zero shares of Lamar Jackson in any league going into next year. Between the three teams. Unfortunately. We'll have none. We'll have none. Instagram question. It's a simple one. It's a food-related one. Okay, I'm ready. Creamy or crunchy peanut butter. Creamy. Crunchy is delicious, but you can't spread it. Creamy is the answer. Creamy. I'm with you. I'm with you. I'm with you guys.

I mean, look, they just need to figure out. An occasional crunchy sandwich is good. Like, I would like one every once in a while. Here's the thing. I guess if you're talking like, okay, it's a sandwich. We're talking sandwiches here for peanut butter. Am I making the sandwich? Because if I'm not making the sandwich and you just hand me a nice crunchy peanut butter and jelly sandwich, I'm all about that. It's the work. But spreading crunchy peanut butter, it's not, it's just, it's not feasible.

Well, I mean, it's feasible. For someone else? Right, right. And not for you. Not for me. Yeah. Instagram question. How did we get crunchy peanut butter where they were making peanut butter and some dudes like, yeah. Just put some paint. No, that's good enough. I really think the question of how did we? I can't go all the way to creamy. I mean, the question of how did we get there. It does not seem like a leap that they would use the very substance they make the butter from.

in its full form mixed together. I'm guessing that the, you know, the blender that is chopping up all these peanuts just kind of broke a little. The motor ran out. And the motor's getting slow and so a lot of chunks are coming through there. Ship it. This is too, yeah. Pack it, ship it. Change the label. Say crunchy. We did it on purpose. Crunchy's, I haven't had a crunchy peanut butter sandwich in a good decade. It's still delicious. Don't hear what we're not saying. Crunchy peanut butter is not. Oh, I'm saying.

You're saying it's bad. So if someone makes it for you, Mike, you still want creamy. You still want creamy. That is correct. But you're also a guy that doesn't go jelly, right? You go honey or something? Yeah, I prefer honey. I'll eat it to be PB&J. But if I'm left to my own devices, it's creamy and honey, yes. Yeah, that sounds right. Twitter, John Frank, if you had to leave Arizona, where would you live? Great question. San Diego. Next question. I just...

Look. There are coastal people and there are mountain people or lake people. Right. People that want to go ski, people that want to live by a lake in a cabin. I'm in on that Denver life for at least half the year. I'll spend my summers in Denver. No problem. I don't need the coast. I just want perfect weather. That's all. I want to be able to go outside. With crunchy peanut butter sandwiches delivered to me. Delivered to me. Fresh, clean, perfect 75 degree weather. That's all I want.

That's not so much to ask. Yeah. So that's where I say San Diego is just like that. It's 75. You know what temperature it is in San Diego right now? It's 75. You know how I know that? Because it's always. Yeah, but what about tonight? Oh, at if you, if you're out late enough past sunset, it'll be 75 degrees. But if you get up super early in the morning, it's 75 degrees. Oh, that's. That's why San Diego. But that's also why if you want a house in San Diego, you have to be a millionaire. Yeah. Yeah. I think I'd rather live.

on the coast like if i was right on the beach if you could live anywhere right on the beach would be slightly better to me than the cabin in the woods or the the lakefront property i had a beach house i don't you guys know me like i don't have anxiety about anything i just i just making crunchy peanut butter sandwiches right well that's not anxiety so much as displeasure um but

I would have anxiety of like a tidal wave if I lived on the beach. Just no, that one scares me. I would want to live up high. Yeah, on a big cliff. Heck yeah. You okay with that? I mean, because then no anxiety of falling off the cliff. That's right. Okay. Don't know why. Wait, maybe a zip line down off the cliff to the beach. Heck yeah. And I know I could hang out on that zip line for a good five minutes, right? Would you go zip line or would you go like giant fireman's pole? Oh.

my gosh the chafing oh the burns the first time he tried he just lets go at the top and splatters because he's burning himself like this is cool this is cool uh yeah i'm gonna take the zip line for those reasons i'm just imagining him now like to use this fireman's bowl he's lathering in vassaline just so he's fine and then i did just slip off

No. You're going like 200 miles an hour down this thing. Where did we go? How did we get here? All right. A couple more. Instagram. Who's your favorite late round quarterback for next season? Oh, man. I don't know who's late. Well, you brought up Kyler Murray, but I don't think he's going late. Will he end up still being late? No, because the Cardinals will draft like a great wide receiver and he'll go into year two. I can tell you who mine is. All right. Genuinely. Now.

Unless Tom Brady goes, as I think he might, to the Titans. Ryan Tannahill. Did you just say the Titans? Yeah, he ended this whole spiel about Mike Brable taking... No, Brady's not going to the Titans? Yeah, that's what I said. They're not bringing in an aged Brady when they succeeded with Tannahill. That's the... That's fight worthy. Jason's got to take. They're going to let Tanya Hill go to get 43-year-old Brady? Just too much. It makes no sense. But...

He just beat Brady with Tanahill. Tannahill is my late round quarterback that I'm all about next year because I know he did it. I know he was very good. He was like the quarterback three once he took over for the Titans in week seven. But he's not going to be drafted as a top five or top ten quarterback next year. It's just not happening because he's Ryan Tannenhill. And I am all about Ryan Tannenhill finishing as a top five quarterback next year.

Guys who I think can go late, I bet if he's still there, because it's strange of Carolina, but Cam Newton with this new college offense, that's very interesting to me. And let me ask you guys this. Let's say James stays in Tampa Bay. Is he still end up as a late round quarterback? James.

always ends up as a late round quarterback. I believe he would be. If he, if James is back in Tampa Bay, yeah, he's, I'm, I get it. It might be car, it might be Carson Wentz, to be honest with you. Yeah, with weapons that finally come back. I mean, he had, he had such a good year. This is why late round, late. Late round quarterbacks are great because maybe it's Carson wins. There's so many with that. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Maybe it's Ryan Fitzpatrick. I'll take him late. I mean, he was, maybe it's Matt Ryan.

Yeah, the number one pass-attempt team in the NFL. There's just too many options. Yeah. All right. Last one here. From Instagram, from Hexo. You're the owner of an NFL franchise. Oh, nice. I'm moving to Sandy. And you have to find a new head coach. Here's the only rule. It has to be an active player who then gives up playing. Who do you choose?

I'm going Drew Breeze before you guys can answer that one. Oh, that's a great one. Yeah, that's really good. That's a good one. So you have to take a player off the field and make him your head coach. So is active in the booth doesn't count? I can't take Romo. Ooh. He would have been. I like that one. But that's not the spirit of the question. No, but that's harder. You want, you want some leadership. You want likeability, right? I doubt Brady being a head coach would work out very well. I, yeah, I'm not. No, no, thank you.

Because, I mean, I still got to work with the guy, right? You can take Whitten, if you want. Oh, he is back in there. He's still playing football? No, thank you. Man, okay, so let's see here. Does anybody jump to mind? Other than... I mean, it's hard to not have your mind drifting towards a quarterback since the field general. They should know an offense. Yeah, but you've got the Vrables out there, like the linebackers. Yeah, I'm going to take Luke Keeckley.

Oh, very nice. I think Luke Keekly knows football better than. Yeah, that's a great answer. He's the Tony Romo on the defensive side of the ball that just he knows what play is going to have him before it happens. That was a lot like Vrable and, you know, there's no situational football that's going to catch Luke Keekly off guard and he's going to be unprepared as to what should be the right thing to do in this situation. So he's my guy. Yeah. So he has to give up playing.

It's unfortunate because I want to say Russell Wilson as the head coach of his own team. Oh, you want him to be a player coach? He can say, this is how you're supposed to use me. Yeah, yeah. All right, that'll do it for the show. That'll do it. Thank you for submitting all the AMA questions. We want to thank Pristine Auction.
