Fantasy Football Podcast for Week 3/4

quarterback. Yes, absolutely. We've seen guys flash in the pan like Kirk Cousins is flashing right now, and we've seen it probably 20 times over the last three years, where a guy comes out and, you know, if you ask me this question in four weeks and Kurt Cousins is the next Nick Foles instead of the next John Kittner, then maybe my answer is different. And you're getting Macklin over Colston. Yeah, and I don't think that gap is that big. So I think that,

We were talking about Colston and I put up zero points two weeks ago. Yeah, he scored a touchdown this past week, and I still hold on to the value piece of that trade is Dubreeze. I don't give them up yet. Not yet, sorry. Not for Captain Kirk yet. Do we want to do any more? My phasers are set to kill. I've just upgraded. By the way, I don't know. I don't know if I have.

Were you going to try to do a Captain Kirk impression? No, I was trying to force myself to say I would make that trade, but I don't know if I could do it. No, okay. I'm taking Breeze in Colston. There you go. Okay. Well, you sold it pretty good. You made me thinking I'm stupid for a second. I was like, I'm sticking to my guns here. So do we want to do a few more questions or how we... No, I think we do. We're getting towards the end. All right, let's move on to... Start of the wig. All right.

Hey, who's your start of the week? My start of the week. Better not be a guy on bye. It's Andy Dalton. Oh, beast. My start of the week is old muscles from, oh, he's not from Brussels. Old muscles. Colin Kaepernick, quarterback from the San Francisco 49ers. Here's what Colin Kaepernick. Spell it out to me. This is what he did last week to a good cardinal defense. He was 29 for 37.

245 yards. Yards? Yards. He had a touchdown pass, and the good news, he started to run again. 13 for 54. Yeah, see difference maker right there. So, and that 54 yards, how many passing yards does that equate? Because that's five points, so 125, that's 125 passing yards. On top of, for a standard league, pretty much. Right. Yeah, on top of what he threw for.

And I think they've been embarrassed. They were upset with the officiating, and they have a great matchup at home after being embarrassed. They're playing Philadelphia, who clearly just gave it up to Captain Kirk last week. Philly is 26th in defense, allowing 386 yards a game, and 26 points. So I'm starting. I'm starting. Colon.

Kappanik. Yeah, I'm having a hard time with my start of the week. I don't... This is Andy's. Maybe I'm going to start of the week. Yeah, I'm actually going to... I'm going to change my start of the week. Oh, yes, mid-show change. Please do this. Let me say this. My start of the week was going to be Eddie Lacey. And that's bold because he's been...

He's been the sit of the last three weeks. I made a joke this week that he is going to report to the team very soon and that he is still in camp because that's about the production he's given. So I do think Eddie Lacey is a really good start this week against the Bears. The Packers have come out and said their run game has got to improve, and I think they're going to feed the rock to him, but the question is will he drop it? However, I'm going to make my start of the week a one Brandon Cook's. Ooh.

Because I like the way that this is shaping up for New Orleans. They're going to be indoors in Dallas, a primetime game. They need to get their offense together. And Dallas is defense, although it's been good so far this year, I think you saw in the first half of the St. Louis game. It is also vulnerable. We saw Austin Davis' third string hanging it up. Yeah, I would not be surprised to see double-digit catches.

from Brandon Cooks this week, as well as a touchdown from the Shifty Brandon Cook. So here's my start of the week. The PPR players who listen to our podcast probably just pooped a little bit when they heard double-out of excitement? Yeah. See, it's confusing because poop is a bad thing. Just a little bit. It's a bad thing for the players to do. It's a good thing for the owners to do. Is that what you're saying? If you own a guy and you poop a little bit, that's a good thing because that means you're excited. We're talking poop volume.

Oh, so it's a bunch. Then it's bad. Eddie Lacey, that's too much. Too much. But if it's, okay, this is something we're going to have to really work out over the next few weeks on the show. Too much doo-do for Eddie Lacey. Yeah, so those are our starts. Colin Kaepernick and Brandon Cooks. Sounds good. So any concluding thoughts before we wrap it up here this week, heading into week four? I got nothing. Please. A Thursday night game.

Giants and Redskins coming up? I'm actually excited for this. Why? Because you have Captain Kirk Cousins on your team. Because my phasers have sex to annihilation. Oh, we're going to have to add some sound effects just to satiate your Star Trek. Even if he sucks, I'm going to start playing sound effects. That's right.
