Genius. I think it's fair to say he's going to finish outside the top 10. He's a 5 right now and he's your stream. Top 10's fair. I'm not hopping in on this, but I actually, I like Mike's pick. I would have picked Bortles as my stream of the week had you not picked him. And instead, because I came in third when it was time to find him, I hate every other option. But Andy, you go next so that we can vomit last. I've got Ryan Tannahill at home against Houston.

40:09 ↗

I'm going to believe in the rejuvenation of the offense and the defense, and I just think Tanna Hill at home against the Houston defense that has been, what's the right word for it? Bad? Bad. I just want to point out real quick. I'm looking at our scoring for me. You know what we should have done? We should have done it like a Tana Hill versus Bordle. Let's just do, change it. Renovation? Do I still hit the button again? Yeah, hit the button again. Waterbed. It's official. So the Houston defense points given up two quarterbacks in our scoring league.

40:40 ↗

27th. The bill's giving up points to the quarterback 26th. It's a great face off. Ironically, ironically, the Texans gave up 53 attempts and 330 yards and three touchdowns to Blake Bortles last week. I want to take his face off. Uh.

41:01 ↗

I love that. As a face-off fan, I love that movie. It took me a second. Man, Nick Cage. No more drugs for that man. Don't we miss him? Don't we miss him? He's still around. I could eat a peach for hours. All right. I'll take that as a segue, too. From my Nick Cage to my streaming quarterback of the week. Is Peach's? Peach Cobbler? Can you stream Peach Cobbler?

41:27 ↗

So I looked at Brian Hoyer as a second week in a row, but I was actually scared off by the Miami Rejuvenation. I don't know what the Miami defense is going to be at home, so Brian Hoyer is out. I like the idea of Ryan Fitzpatrick at New England. Don't you play? No, no, no. He's getting ready for this. Truth be told, I like Blake Bortle's best.

41:54 ↗

But I'm going to go out. Last week, I picked a guy who was owned in 1% of leagues in Brian Hoyer. I'm going to take a guy who's owned in 0%. Fitzpatrick's owned in less? Nope. I'm not going Fitzpatrick. Oh, you're not going Fitzpatrick. Oh, man. I am going going. You zigding and zag. I zigden zag. This is not your start of the week. This is. I mean, your full stream of my stream of the week, if he's the starter, I am going to say.

42:24 ↗

And this is great, if you're in a real big pool of DFS, Landry Jones. Hey. Now, here's why. Hey. The Kansas City secondary has been terrible. And I don't know if there is anybody with better weapons. You've got... Top 20. Top 20 bet. If he's the starter, you put that, yeah. I almost said top 30. I like this. So Kansas City's got a very suspect secondary. And Martavis Bryant, I mean...

42:56 ↗

Let's just say this. Landre Jones threw two touchdowns last week and very limited action against the Great Arizona Cardinals. You cannot give Landry Jones credit for the Martavis Bryant touchdown. No, I don't. I don't. I don't at all. On the stat sheet you can. It's all Martavis Bryant.

43:10 ↗

But it's all Martavis Bryant. It's all Antonio Brown. It's all the weapons against the terrible suspect secondary. Could people break things off and do things? I think Landry Jones is a better fit for their offense than Michael Vick was. It'll be an entertaining week. Yeah. Yeah, it'll be fun. Honestly, I really don't like the options this week. I would go Blake Bortles, but I'm having a little bit of fun and going with the 0% owned Landry Jones. It was funny because I thought you were going Fitzpatrick O'Hoyer.

43:38 ↗

Which both are terrible. And then there was a sentence afterwards. He says I'll take Landry Jones. I can get behind that. I agree. The weapons, I think, can carry him. Landry Jones, let me just tell you my perspective on it. It's fine. The weapons can carry him. He's going to commit turnovers against Kansas City defense. He's going to be sacked on his back. He's going to fumble the ball. Maybe. I agree. And they're still going to lean. You don't put a guy like that who's played one half of his career. They're going to lean on Levpil.

44:03 ↗

Yeah, right. But a lot of those could be in the past. You put those on the list, Mike? Yeah. Somebody's getting wet in the quarterback discussion. Did you know that last week was the first game in Levy on Bill's career, Levy on Bell's career, that he did not catch a pass? That is kind of crazy. Because Mike Vicks stinks. And Landry Jones forever. You know, there are different apps on my phone that I follow the scores of the games on. And they always, one of the apps shows the best passer, the best rusher, and the best

44:34 ↗

receiving yards. And it just shows the face of them. That Cardinal game went on so long and nothing had popped in to the quarterback or the receiving spot because no one had caught a pass and no passes had been completed in the game. Yes. Last week, the Vick game. No, no, it's not true. Antonio Brown had a negative yardage catch. Oh, maybe that's why I didn't show up. So, all right, that's it for today's show. Hopefully you enjoyed the mailbag episode and you have some ideas on who you're going to sign.

45:00 ↗

The mailbag episode. Did I say it tomorrow? Sorry, the mailbag episode is tomorrow. I meant the waiver show. And if you sign some guys, let us know. You think about Larry Jones over there. On waivers? No. I assure you he's on waivers. Yeah. So let us know. We're on Twitter at the FFBallers. You can let us know who you are deciding between. We'll try to hop on and help you out. You can check out the website, the fantasy footballers.com. Send us those questions that you have. You know.

45:26 ↗

There are a lot of decisions to be made. This is getting into the nitty-gritty of the fantasy season. It's time to go. Time to get it. If you're two and four, you're not out. That's true. Go get it. That's what I'm trying to do in one of my leagues. Go get it. Yeah. I'm giving you an Andy Dalton pep talk. You are motivating me. Thank you. Yeah. Andy Dalton's getting it done, though. I made fun of his pep talks, but he's getting it done on the field. So, um...
