Episode notes

The 2025 episode’s durable material is the Wheel of Shame: the loser is forced into a chicken costume with tiny eye holes and breath holes, while the hosts mock the physical fit and inability to see. The show also jokes about Cam Skattebo entering the blue tent to check on a quarterback, earning a fine, and turns the weekly faceoff into bizarre player props such as Ollie Gordon and Tommy Tremble.

No, not at all. I have a cup of coffee. Mind is clear. The first three weeks last year with Rushy Rice. Got bad news on caffeine, bro. That's what it is. The first three weeks, the target share went down so much for Travis Kelsey. And while he did have a 44-yard broken play this last week, he only had three targets in the game. It's just kind of like, I worry a lot about Kelsey going forward. Mike, how do you feel about these commanders this week, Bill? I would avoid if I could. Unfortunately, the timing of the week, but while we aren't playing them this week, we learned something new in terms of Mick Nichols or Chris Rodriguez. I don't think so. Okay, do you think Bill's the dude? Yeah, I do think he is the guy of anyone from Washington, but it still hasn't come through in good matchups. Bill or Burchard Smith? You play Bill? Oh, man.

56:56 ↗

Yeah, I think I would play Bill. I know that's not a fun question, Mike. No. I'm sorry to put you in that position. No, it's not. Would you play Bill or Ken Walker? Ken Walker. Bill or Jordan Mason last night. Wait, Walker's on by. I was like, oh, sorry. Sorry, sorry. I was looking at points per game. I was right by him on points per game and I didn't even think about this schedule. Rashad White, though. Rashad White? Oh, Rashad White, yes, for sure. Debo and McLaren coming back? Are they back in your lineup in this game where they're only projected 17 points? No, no, they're only projected 17 points. This is just bum town. You have a matchup. It is. It is disappointing. And a very good defense. So, no, I mean, right now, the fewest fantasy points given up on the season to wide receivers is the Chiefs. Yeah, yeah, that's where that's where them coming back just doesn't persuade me to play Marioata anyways.

57:53 ↗

All right, one injury update for you. Bryce Young doubtful and Andy Dalton will officially start regardless of whether he's the backup and dealing with the injury or the emergency quarterback. It'll be Andy Dalton this week. We'll see what that means for Xavier Legate Part 2. Let's talk. No, speaking of Bumptown. Yeah. Fantasy face off, presented by prize picks. Well, here we are again. The fantasy face off. Last week, three out of four on my side of the table. That's pretty good. Jason, you, uh, you went, I did better than Mike. Like I lost. This is moving up. Just spin the stupid wheel. I mean, this is, uh, this is what we do. Put the wheel up. Wheel of shame. All right. Spin, I mean, I probably Boston Strangler at this point.

59:02 ↗

the court cat person league of record loser that can't be me cluck oh my gosh my clock clock clock what is you're a chicken I'm not only a chicken I'm a very specific chicken have we have we tested this for large heads It got stuck on mine. Oh, yeah. Oh, baby. At least you cut your hair, Mike. I got it on decently. Getting it off is going to be a challenge. Yes. There's breath holes, Mike. You'll be fine. We can cut it off you. You'll be totally fine. Oh. Oh, baby. Oh, yeah. Look at that idiot. Look at that idiot. Yeah. How you doing, Mike? What a loser. Okay. We're into it this week. Quarterbacks.

59:51 ↗

I think there are eye holes up on your forehead right now. Yeah, there are. I mean, they're not really where human eyes are, though. My quarterback this week, we got to get to it. I'm taking Andy Dalton more than 32 and a half passing attempts. Okay. Andy Dalton more than 32 and a half passing attempts. I like that. I'm going to go with what I have been doing pretty much all season. The projection keeps going up. I'm still taking Jordan Love more. then 12.5 rushing yards is his current projection. This is ridiculous. Mike just reached out to find his microphone with his hands like a blind man. Are you suffocating? When I pull the mask down, it chokes me. Sorry, bro. I got, check this one out. Dylan Gabriel. Oh, 33.5 pass attempts. More.

60:45 ↗

Oh, so we both went past attempts. Yeah, because he's going to have to throw a lot against the Patriot. No, that's fair. My running back playing a little, a fun one here, Bejohn Robinson, more than 23.5 rushing yards on his first five attempts. Ooh. 23.5 on his first five attempts, Bejan. I am going with Ollie Gordon. What? I'm going Ollie Gordon. Oh my gosh. Tommy Trimble strikes again. What is wrong with you? His longest rush is going to be less than seven and a half yards. The nice thing is he's getting like he doesn't get a lot of them. That's a little. That's a little interesting. All right. But if you lose that one, I'm going to make fun of you. Very few chances. Mike, you're running back. I got Javante Williams against the Broncos rushing yards in first five attempts. Oh, the same one as Annie. Yeah.

61:40 ↗

18 and a half. Okay. Oh, you're going. Oh. Against the Broncos? You're going, okay, you're going under. That's a less, sorry. Drake, London at wide receiver is, I'm going. This is awful. I'm sorry, Mike. I didn't know how, I got no report on how suffocating that was. I just knew it looked funny, which it does. Drake London is my green goblin. I'm going more than three and a half receptions for Drake London. Same. Oh, you have the same thing? Same. That's funny. Oh, wow. Neat. That means you don't have to talk as much. Hmm. I have three different wide receivers I'm picking between. Wait, right now? Right now. Yeah, because I just, I loved, I loved a lot of them. I'm going to go. What? Is this allowed? Well, I mean, I'm making it official right now. Yeah, here we go. I have some. I'm going to take a first game back.

62:33 ↗

Christian Watson, we're going to see him for the first time. You like Jordan Love, you say he's a good start of the week. I'm going to take him more than one and a half receptions. I think he'll get the ball a couple times in this game. Kate Otten, more than 39.5 receiving yards is my tight end. My tight end is my green goblin. Evan Ingram is going to be more than three and a half receptions against Dallas. I love that you have. So so far, let me just get this straight. One, you have Ollie Gordon in one of your picks. Yes. Two, you told me I'm on drugs about Jordan Love and then went with him. And then three, you just picked who? Evan Ingram. Who you love. I know that Evan Ingram will get a lot of worthless receptions. Mike is begging us to stop talking. I burped in here and it was real gross. Okay. All right. You're tied in, Mike. Travis Kelsey, longest reception.

63:25 ↗

18 and a half yards. Yeah. Less than that. A couple of less there. All right. We'll see if you're back in that death mask. If it goes bad again, it's all hate next week. All less. Okay.
