Fantasy Football - Week 4 Matchups + Wheel of Shame, Marv Madness - Podcast for 9/26

The way those other three teams look, we, we went into the seasons, you know, it's like, Oh, you know what the new England, they don't, they look okay at best. Yeah. Okay. To bad. And then, you know, Buffalo, a dominant force. Again, the Jets and Dolphins are winless. Um, no sideline dance victories yet here for Aaron Glenn. Okay, here we go. We get a play Monday night football. We got a 45 and a half point over under Justin field should be back out on the field. The last time we saw him on the field, it was bad. It was against Buffalo and I had bought in,

so I'm bitter, but I get it. It was against Buffalo. If the, you're going to want to have some clarity on just for sure, knowing that fields is going to play. But if he's going to play, then I'm starting, I would start him. Uh, does that go like Baker versus fields? Are you talking a tier below that? Like, um, I would go fields over Baker. You would? Yeah. See fields, fields, unfortunately going on the road with some of the, I mean, he was 11 for 27 through three quarters. Okay. I guess I know it's, how was Kyler through three quarters?

No, I'm just saying you didn't, he didn't play a whole game. And 11 for 27 is rough. A 39 passer rating is rough. I'm not two fumbles. That's, that's pro look. You look at the career. There's a lot of that. That's all I'm saying. Like if I w I would not play him over Baker, but that was Buffalo, right? Not Miami. And the dolphins have lost their secondary. I, I would, I think, uh, I'll, I'll take that gamble because Baker against the Eagles with some injuries there. I, I mean, I get it. It's a gamble, but I, I think if I had that Baker tier,

I'm not doing it. So we disagree on that one. Devon HN, Brees Hall. You can play them both. Yep. Garrett Wilson. Yes. Tyree killing. Yes. The last two weeks he's been, he's been viable. Um, can you start waddle? I thought you were gonna say Waller. And I was like, no, you can't, you can't start Darren Waller. I don't know what Darren Waller has done to get this free money. Is, is Waller potentially actually playing? I doubt it. I think he's ramping up. They're looking for week 16. He's limited. It's he's, he's trying to go up that ramp. The world's longest.

It was that Red Bull, uh, skate ramp. I think he says he's still on track to make his debut. He's on track to make his debut in this game. Wow. But it's, it's on Monday. We have plenty of time for a setback. Uh, but trying to channel some energy back to, to waddle. He's had a touchdown each of the last two weeks. He has five receptions each of the last two weeks. So it's healthy. I'm fine playing him. He's never healthy. Ah, you caught me. Yeah. I mean, he'll go out a couple of times in this game. You caught me.

I think you can start him. No, I did too. I think he's a flex worthy wide receiver to play. There are three, wide receiver three. All jokes aside, it will be interesting to keep your eyes on Darren Waller. I mean, who do you think wins this ball game? I think the dolphins, I think the dolphins win this game going away. I think the dolphins win this game by five. Yeah. I, um, I guess we'll see. The dolphins are usually like this game. You can watch the other ones going on at the same time. You, you, you look, uh, I got bad news for you.

It's the bangles. Bangles, Broncos, the Mike McDaniel era of the dolphins. This, the dolphins have looked good against bad teams. That is like their specialty. So if you want to say that the dolphins will have a great game when going away, I get that. Yeah. They showed some fight against Buffalo last week. You know, that was, that was closer than the final score for sure. Yeah. Cincinnati two and one taking on the Denver Broncos in Denver, Denver one and two. The Vegas line is Denver minus seven and a half. The over-under is 44 and a half. This is not, I won't go almost upset,

but I, I actually think Cincinnati is going to keep the game closer because this is the, this is just setting up to be a little bit of a trap. I think for Denver, at home after how bad Cincinnati was last week, you know, Bo Nix independently of, you know, they're, they're one and two. That's a reflection on how he's played. They've been, they've been close. He's not been that good. No, he's been really up and down. The Broncos have disappointed me quite a bit. I mean, they, they had a game against Tennessee to start the season where they just, they were terrible.

They won because it was Tennessee, but they weren't good. And then they've lost their next. I'm not sure. The Sean Payton play calling thing is still working the way it used to work. I'm not sure. I like everything I'm seeing from a play calling perspective, but having said that, I like them this week. Yeah, this week. I mean, you should get production. Your start of the week at quarterback. Yep. Your start of the week at running back and JK Dobbins, the world waits for RJ Harvey to be more involved. The gap in involvement is so vast right now. I don't really see a takeover scenario happening anytime soon.

If at all this season, no reason. No reason. Dobbins is playing really, really good football. When you look at the wide receiver room, Cortland Sutton still sitting right around wide receiver 15 on the year. Is it Troy Franklin, next man up? I think Troy Franklin is, he's still the one with the snaps as the wide receiver too. So yeah, he's next man up. He's still playable. Not, I don't, I don't know if he's playable in this matchup for Troy Franklin. Yeah. I mean, if Andy's right that the, uh, that the bangles show up and make this a competitive game, then I'm a little bit more excited for Troy Franklin.

Yeah. I think Franklin to me is in the watch category still. Yeah. That's where I have them. I can't, I can't imagine you have a team that's me. If you're in a super deep league, I guess we're talking about starting Thornton and yeah, that's fine. That's fine. You play, you play, I would not play Franklin over those two guys. I would not. He'd be at the third for me. Yeah. I think he's in that same tier. Um, just because, I mean, just tough. You could get nothing like you could get zero. Uh, we have, by the way, JK Dobbins is,

uh, one of only four running backs to be top 15 all of the weeks. James cook, B is on CMC and JK Dobbins. Pretty impressive. Not impressive. Chase Brown, Jake Browning. If Brown's in your name, scoring points, ain't your game. Oh man. So it's such a bummer. So far, uh, week one, 43 rushing yards, week two, 47 rushing yards, week three, three rushing yards. He has not looked good. He, he was never a special enough player to just demand everything. He was opportunity on an incredible offense. The opportunity is still there. You know, he's, he's still getting 15 opportunities this last week.

That's enough for fantasy. I, but if you're on a bad offense, yeah. And I'm not excited about Chase Brown. Um, the, Oh my gosh, their schedule. It's Denver, Detroit, green Bay are the next ones. Cause I, what I was going to point out is week one was Cleveland, like Cleveland to, he put up 43 rushing yards against Cleveland where Derek Henry and Josh Jacobs did Jack squat against that defense. Then Jacksonville who Jay, we agreed that I think that Jacksonville is a better defense. Then we got to, we got to start reorienting, retrain your brain on that. Cause they were so bad.

Um, and then Minnesota, uh, Minnesota won the game with defense. So that's not a say to play chase Brown. That's a, maybe it's not as bad as it's been. Yeah. And once we get to like week seven, right. But I was going to say this, I mean, the next three weeks. No, thank you. T Higgins. I prefer not. Let's see. Uh, uh, DK Metcalf against Minnesota or T Higgins. Oh, Metcalf by a lot. Okay. Uh, Michael, terrible question. Michael Pittman. Pittman. Uh, yeah, Pittman. I mean, Higgins is bottom of the barrel. Okay. Romeo Dobbs. Higgins. Yeah. I'll probably play Higgins.

Okay. And then we'll, I'll give you one more bottom of the barrel. Jerry Judy. I'll play Higgins. All right. That way I haven't, that way I'm not playing Judy. That's, that's not a bad strat. All right. Um, some more injury updates before we turn to the fantasy face off. Jalen Warren's still been limited in practice. Johnny Smith limited. Um, Truba Hubbard listed as questionable with the calf injury. Ted McMillan questionable, expecting to play. And Jatavian Sanders and Xavier Leggett ruled out of that game, as well as Alec Pierce with the concussion ruled out. So your dart throw, your DFS, Adonai Mitchell,

someone you could look at. Uh, looking update, uh, CD lamb, not yet ruled out. No doubtful. Fingers crossed. Doubtful. All right. Let's get to it. fantasy face off presented by prize picks. Last week, Mike went four for four. All four of his, yeah, baby. picks. We won. Delivered. And I ended up two out of four. Tyler Warren ended up six yards shy. And, uh, Ken Walker did not get to his yardage total. And Jason, you ended up not too well. You ended up with the wheel. And that's why we'll of shame.

All right. Spin that wheel. I read them off. We got there. We got reporter. We got rainy day. MTV. Cringe. Snorked. What is snork? Oh, it's going to be a snorkel. Isn't it? Oh, son of a gun. Make sure that cap goes on. Wait, you got to put on your swimming cap, Jay. Oh, this is good. All right. Okay. Oh, baby. You got it. You're going to be looking at the fishes. Oh, yeah. Oh, that was a snap. Okay. Yeah. That's good for the audio. All right. The, uh, the, the glasses situation. I don't know. You're going to have to need to pop those off.

Can you, you want to jump in? Can you read your, I can, uh, lineup. I can zoom in. Can you please, does he have to put the snorkel on? for sure. No, no, no. Maybe in between talking. Okay. All right. Looks, looks pretty good. All right. We're going to blitz this week's picks. All right. Starting with the quarterback position. I'm going Jordan love more than 5.5 rushing yards. Jason Voorhees. Uh, that, that is the same one. I, Hey, you cover that nose. No, with the mask. Is it wrong? The water is getting in my, nose. Oh, okay. That's way worse.

Yeah. That's the point. Oh gosh. Okay. Uh, I fogging up. You said Jordan love more than 5.5. That is, that is the same one I have. We've been, we've been actually doing this. Uh, this projection has been six and a half the last couple of weeks and we've been going more and, uh, having great success. All right. You are getting real foggy. Uh, I can't see anything. I'm going with Jake Browning less than 224 and a half passing yards. All right. Running back position. I'm going Amarian Hampton. More than we're getting a real fog situation here. Fellas, Amarian Hampton, more than 39.5 rushing yards.

Oh, wow. That I did not see that. That one is good. Uh, speaking of those bagels, I'm good. He is full for the audio listeners. His mask has fully fogged. He is in, I'm supposed to be underwater right now. And you are. Uh, yeah. Uh, I'm going to take Chase Brown, uh, the, from the bagels. His projection is 53 and a half rushing yards. I didn't see that one either. And if you're curious if I'm going more or less than that, more, don't be a coward. I'm going less. Mike, who's the running back for you? I'm going with Jordan Mason.

I like your guys so much more than mine. Okay. Uh, but Jordan Mason, 80 and a half rushing yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers. I'm going more baby. Whoa. My wide receiver. I know it's, it's, it's up there. I like ours way more. Yeah, I do too. Garrett Wilson, 65.5 receiving yards. I'm taking the more. Oh man, we were going to fight. I'm taking the more. Garrett Wilson is too important. All right. I'm going with huge Quinton Johnston. Uh, he is at two and a half receptions. I'm going more than two and a half. All right. And I got Andy's start of the week.

Mr. Matthew golden. Nice. More than 41 and a half. If the, this is a, thank you. Uh, the rookie watch of, of Matthew golden against Dallas. If he can't perform there, it's going to be devastating. And Ashton Gentty in that bears matchup is like, if these guys can't get it done this week, it'll, those are two Gentty and golden. Yeah. What are you doing there? I gotta be able to see what my tight end is. Forgive me. Okay. Andy, who's your tight end? Hunter Henry, 38 and a half receiving yards. I'm taking the more. All right. I'm going Dallas Goddard on his first two receptions.

Did he forget the rest? No. Oh, is you, you're on one of those. I'm doing one of these. I love, I love these. So 17 and a half yards on his first two receptions. Dallas Goddard is a dink and dunk guy. I'm going less than 17 and a half yards on his first two. On his first two. That's interesting. Uh, I'm going Jake for galicious. Oh boy. Four and a half receptions. Oh boy. I'm taking a more. Oh boy. All right. That was fantasy face off presented by prize picks. I'd like to talk slow for Jason's sake here. Uh, check out max discounts on the app.
