Week 10 Waivers + Mike’s Soapbox, Full Stream Ahead - Fantasy Football Podcast for 11/8

I think they get some things figured out this week against Chicago. And I think it's good on both sides of the ball for that, for those quarterbacks. Yes. The other side of the ball is my start of the week. And really for the waiver wire show. Yeah, for the full stream ahead. It could be the start of the week. He probably already. Yeah. I was going to say he's a little. Slip of the tongue. Yeah, I see we're all jumping on the Justin Fields bandwagon. For Thursday, but on the waiver wire show, Justin Fields is my number one waiver wire pickup. Like even if I have a good quarterback and I don't think I need to start him, if he's on the waivers, which somehow he is still available in more than 50% of ESPN leagues, mind blowing, he's been on fire. There was a great report talked about how on their buy week their coaching staff went.

and looked at, I mean, this is mind-blowing. Imagine. They went and looked at the Ravens offense and the Texas with Deshaun Watson and the offenses of people. Clifford, Kingsbury. The mobile quarterbacks that said, what are they doing? Let's try to do what they're doing so successfully. And they can do it. And they've unlocked his rushing. So he exploded last week. Stay in the flames. Detroit is a great matchup. There's, there's, don't overthink it. Well, let's overthink it. If you're looking at picking him up, yes, you could burn a waiver priority, but how much fab would you spend if you already have a viable quarterback? If I already have a viable... Well, so, yeah, Joe Burrow, because he's going into the buy.

And you're saying, hey, I need to get a win this week. How much fab are you spending on Justin Fields? So if I've got someone going into a buy and therefore don't have a quarterback this week, I'm going, I'll spend 25, 30 on fields. If I have Tua or someone where, you know, look, I'm starting toa rest of season, he's been awesome. I'm still going after Fields, but I'm probably just going to put a $510 bid in there and hope I can, at worst, keep him away from some other team that needs him. That's what I want to bring up is, like, sure, the Chicago Bears in Justin Fields after these juicy matchups that they have, maybe they revert and Fields falls back on his face. That could happen. Or they keep ripping and Justin Fields turns into a league winning quarterback that you.

Do not want on your opponent's team, especially an opponent who's been, you know, they got like Kirk Cousins here, Aaron Rogers there, Tom Brady. Tom Brady. And they're like, ooh, Justin Fields? Like, it would be catastrophic to run up against Justin Fields and in the playoffs if they're stacked and they fix their quarterback position. We have a team in our league of record that has Tom Brady a quarterback and everybody else is a gauntlet. And I'm so pleased that that team did not pick up Justin Fields. Yeah. So my super streamer of the week, oh, man. What are you doing? Guys, this is what is. He might not even play the whole game. Okay, that is a fair point. But I am going with Andrew Dalton against the, you guys said this with Davis Mills, fellas. It's all about the match. Yeah, but the underpants you have to, I don't know if you can carry them.

These aren't steel. These are like this. These are new cement. No, these are these are, we'll go with some vibranium. Yeah, I mean, this is a new periodic table of underpants. He gets to play the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers are allowing the second highest yards per attempt behind only the Detroit Lions of Pittsburgh have allowed a QB1 performance in six of eight weeks. I'm laughing because, yeah, I think, I think Kyle nailed this. It's not steel underpants this week. It's a steel diaper. Okay. You know? Yeah, because you're going to poop in it. I mean, you did pick Davis Mills, who's been awful this year. Yeah, but the difference is Davis Mills was going up against the Raiders, which were terrible, projected to be terrible, continue to be terrible, whereas the Steelers, when they're playing at home and they are expected to have TJ Watt back. And off the buy. So I, I, this is, these are, I, like, I'll, I'll just say this right now because it could change for later. My current draft Kings lineup.

for this week has the Steelers defense in it because I think that they are underpriced without T.J. Watt having him back against Andy Dalton. I respect the steel diaper, Mike, but I will not abide by it. And you will. Unfortunately, with a steel diaper can't be removed. So if the poop shows up in the steel diaper, it's permanent. I am aware. And it is not, it doesn't absorb very well. The steel does not absorb. You are wearing it. The matchup. Love it. Andy, you'd make a good point of watch the news. I don't understand this full commitment to Andy Dalton that they've just. I thought they'd make the change last night. Like completely bypassed James Winston and be like, nope, Andy Dalton's clearly the better option. That's a strange decision to me, but it's what they've been rolling with. So if they're saying Andy Dalton's the starter, I think he's going to have success. Okay. All right. Well, that'll be a fun one to look back on.
