If your body is telling you yes on the oozy. Secret of the ooze. On the secret of the oozy. Then he's got a great, he's at home against Pittsburgh. That's who Austin Hooper just put up a lot of yards against. He's, he's interesting. All right. Quarterback pick up. We're going to talk about him in the stream of the week, but James Winston should probably be picked up because he could turn into a every week start. If you are a.

55:27 ↗

listener, then there's a great chance you are a streamer and you're picking up different quarterbacks every week. If that's the case, like let's say you've got Andy Dalton or you've got, you know, you keep Andy Dalton. No, you keep him, but you pick up James. If you're in a lot of times, I talk to people all the time, they're like, yeah, but my league, everyone rosters two quarterbacks and no one's on the wire. And if that's the case, if that's where you're living.

55:52 ↗

I was talking to my cousin yesterday. We went out to a pumpkin patch. Oh, I'm sorry. And it was raining. So we just started talking fantasy football. So I'm looking at. So wait. Did the rain bail you out? No. It just made it muddy. Oh. Yeah. Oh, no. No. A super. It was a marsh. You don't want to go in a corn maze that you can't escape in the rain and the mud. Is there anything worse than a pumpkin patch?

56:22 ↗

Yes, I actually enjoy pumpkin patches. I'm going to talk to the guys over here. Is there anything worse than a pumpkin patch? Well, here's the thing. They had like makeshift rides. You went up north, right? Yes, to wear cool weather. Okay, so here's the difference. The Wright family, I've been dragged to several pumpkin patches. And if you don't know this about Arizona, it's hot, you sweat your bees off. Oh, it's too hot. Nobody should live here. And it stays that way forever. The weather's actually...

56:50 ↗

We have this weird thing going on right now, but generally speaking, right now, it's still very hot. So you go to pumpkin patches where there is dust everywhere, just annihilating my weak asthmatic body. You've got to go in the rain. And I mean, it's just filthy. And on top of that, you are sweating. You're just dripping with sweat and you get tricked. Because in the morning, you go, oh, I really need to wear pants today. You needed to wear pants for about five minutes. And now you need shorts and a tank top.

57:20 ↗

Yeah, so I went up north. I had a good time. But he had Andy Dalton and, you know, he said there's just never a quarterback option. And I'm like, you don't need it. Andy Dalton, that's why I talked about him. He's great for weeks. I agree with that. But I would pick up James if you're in one of those leagues because after this next week, he's going to be scooped up now. And you could stream the position between those two guys. It'll be fine. Well, we'll get into the streams. Just want to hit on defenses real quick. Green Bay, about half owned, but they get San Francisco very interesting. The Cowboys get to.

57:50 ↗

take on the Jacksonville Jaguars, and we know that... I got a snake, man. He's a little bit reckless. Yeah, he's a little bit wild. He's been known to throw an interception or two. And honestly, Dallas's defense, they've looked pretty legit. Right. It's not just them slowing down the clock with Zeke. The defense, the pass rush has been there. The secondary is looking pretty good. So, you know, they're at home. I like the Dallas defense this week for sure. Miami gets to take on...

58:18 ↗

Six touchdown, Trebisky. I don't think Jay Gris approves of that stream at all, but that's too bad because I like it. He says pick up Chicago. Which is also, I mean, honestly, if Chicago's out there. If you could pick up Chicago, but you can't, they're 150% owned. It's ridiculous. I believe they were 89% owned last I looked. So if you're in the 11%, you are not. Seattle also gets to take on Oakland. I think that's interesting. But let's move on to our streams of the week. Full stream ahead.

58:53 ↗

I'll kick it off real quick. James Winston gets Atlanta. He is my official stream. And we've talked enough about him. So I wanted to take this time to bring up Baker Mayfield. Yeah, that's who I was going to talk about as well. He gets to play the Chargers this week. And the Chargers secondary has been pretty disappointing thus far.

59:18 ↗

And then listen to this. The same way I talked about Andy Dalton with a gleam of my eye when I peered down at the schedule because he's just going to rip off game after game after game against perfect matchups. The Chargers, Tampa Bay, the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Kansas City Chiefs, the Atlanta Falcons. What? What is happening? This is fantastic. It's, wow. If you missed out on Dalton.

59:48 ↗

Pick up Baker. I mean, James, I would pick him up first because he's just a yardish machine. But Baker Mayfield may find his way into your starting lineup for the next month and a half. That is, that is an unbelievable stretch of matchups. Just imagine what Josh Gordon can do. Oh, that's right. They got rid of them for nothing.

60:10 ↗

Yeah, my stream, I'm staying with Andy Dalton. He had a down game this last week, but he's still great. He's playing against Pittsburgh. He's at home. I think that this will be a fine time for Dalton. The streams aren't as juicy this week at quarterback as they were last week and the last several. I know Jay Gris is a big fan of six touchdown Mitch Trubisky. Mitch Trubble. Trubbs.

60:40 ↗

Um, uh, hey, Jay, you want to water bet that? Okay. We'll do that. Water bet. What's the water bet? That he won't get six touchdowns? That's right. Oh, Jay's taking the over? Oh, and I'm going to water the heck out of that cardboard bear. I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to waterboard him. Because he's a board. When we have to figure out.

61:03 ↗

How to water you. How to make it look like a cardboard bear is dumping water on you. That will be the pinnacle of my life. Wow. Hope for six touchdowns from Mitch Trubbs. And then is your official stream, James? My official one is James, but Baker is a close second. Yeah. He can be Andy's unofficial stream of the week, Baker Mayfield. And James is 100%.

61:30 ↗

the guy to stream this week. I would rather stream James than Dalton. He is far more available in your leagues. We talked about this, but what happened is last week, early last week, I went in the show doc for the starts of the week. Yes. And edited out the show, you know, we're super early and put in James Winston as my start of the week. You're like, wait, I thought I did that, but you did it for your stream of the week. The point is, this week,

62:01 ↗

Pick up James Winston, play him against Atlanta, and hopefully you won't be disappointed. Yeah, I'm in on that matchup. So the ladies and gentlemen, that will do it.
