Fantasy Football Podcast 2015 - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups, Streaming Options, News

He's going up against the Ravens who gave up 350 yards to Derek Carr and 380 yards to Dalton. So it's just the matchup is there. The Ravens DBs have not been great. And Josh McCown is just, he's getting it done one way or the other. So he's... Duke Johnson's helping.

Yeah, and Duke Johnson is getting very involved in the passing game. The weapons are showing up there the way that we didn't think that they had weapons through the air to start the year. You know, Travis Benjamin is still a weapon. Their tight end is being used. Gary Barnage, man. Yeah, Gary. All right, Josh McCown is Mike's guy, Mike's favorite player in the NFL. You heard it here.

All right, I'm going to go with Sam Bradford because I'm a glutton for punishment. Sammy Biscuits plays the Saints. Butter up the biscuits. He had a three touchdown week. I still just want to believe, I want to believe that the Eagles will figure something out on offense. I love this. I love this. Yeah. I think he just has a good matchup. And I think.

He's playing the Saints. Did we say that? Yeah, I did. I did. Oh, sorry. They're playing the Saints. And it's at home. So I kind of like Sam Bradford this week. No, I don't blame you. I would have picked him as well, but you had picked him. So he's only available in about half the leagues. If you want a guy who's available in almost every single league out there, which is a scary proposition, my stream of the week is Jay.

Cutler. Jay Cuddy, I said just a minute ago that the Kansas City D has given up the most points in fantasy to the quarterback position. 32nd. You've got Jay Cutler who last week put up a good line. He had two touchdowns. They also won. And they won the game. So you've got a good matchup. You've got a decent quarterback in Jay Cutler and Alshon Jeffrey.

hopefully, especially for my stream of the week. Hopefully. Is playing because that would really help my stream of the week. I'm with the assumption that he will be playing this week. So Jay Cutler available everywhere. Yeah, he always throws in the very end-of-game interception. Yeah, he'll do that. That's an exciting and fun part about owning him. When's he going to throw it? Is it going to be on the last drive? It's only minus two.

Yeah. Even if the defense scores on his interstate, he just loses two points. He's had one in every game he started this year. Just one, and it's always late. Yeah. If it's early, that just means he's got to throw more. You know, he's going to get down. No, I don't mind that. And I think Jeffrey will be back this week. I think he was really close last week, and they just held him out. And the Bears are no longer winless, which makes Detroit the only winless team. Which is a shame because they should not be winless. I know. I know. It is a shame. And that's tough. All right. Any.

additions to this show you guys want to make anything going on uh no no i mean nothing fantasy related i have a i have an interesting question for you guys a a maneuver that i had to pull off this morning while i was getting ready both sinks are occupied okay i had to brush my teeth how does that happen by the way yeah because i have a wife and i have many children okay

He's got 12 children, just so you know. Oh, I thought he meant mini children. Oh, mini. Yeah, they're 12 little guys. Indian in the cupboards now? Like Philip Rivers amount of children running through my house. No, I don't. But anyway, so the sinks are occupied, but I also have to shower. I'm running very low on time. I had to brush my teeth in the shower. Really? And I felt disgusting. Huh. I don't recommend this for anybody. I think people do that. I don't mind brushing your teeth in the shower at all. You are a savage?

And a heathen and a disgusting human being, do not brush your teeth in the shower. It's gross. Is it because? I'm going to film myself brushing my teeth in the shower. I'm sitting it too much. No, I wouldn't do that. It felt horrible. It just was, I don't know. The spitting part is the worst because you just spit it on the ground. Yeah, that's what I was wondering if that's what ruined it, spitting it on the ground. It just was a terrible experience and I hoped to never go back to that well. But you made it here on time. Yeah.

Good job. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been here to pick Josh McCown as you start of the week. That's true. Wait, not start of the week. Stream of the week. And here's a true story. I feel far more disgusting brushing my teeth in the shower than playing Josh McCown this week. That's the world I live in.
