But it was over 100 yards. It was a touchdown. It was a big integral piece of the Pittsburgh offense. I just feel like the targets are going to be there. And that potential is playoff winning potential. So for me, only Eifford, Graham, and Kelsey. I have ranked higher than the dairy screen. So those are our starts of the week. Few. Are you guys ready for this week? Like I said, I got the bubble guts already.

Inside the episode
138 passagesAll of these starts will be on the website, but let's get to the most important part of the week. Jason Moore's Ironclad, locked and loaded, 100% guaranteed boom, boom kicker of the week. Oh, man, nobody knows kickers like this guy. Yeah, excellent. Continue. Continue your analysis. Look, as I look this week, there's a lot of names.
that I think will have great games. There's some boom guys. There's some boom guys. Matt Bryant's a boom guy. Dan Bailey is a boom guy. You know, Adam Benataris, a boom guy. These are good kickers. They're booms. Yeah, they're booms. You know what? They're not a boom, boom, boom. And I'm going for the first time, surprisingly, the first time this year that I'm picking him, I'm doing it against a very difficult matchup. What? The third best defense against kickers?
is the New England Patriots, and I'm saying, Justice Tucker, you kick that 70-yard field goal. You do it. You go and you boom, boom. Because Joe Flacco is healthy. We forget that he had super late knee surgery. He has not been healthy at the very beginning. He's healthy. He's going to be able to move the ball enough to get in range. Just enough. Just enough to get in range. All he wants to do is room-o-zoom-zoom. And a boom-boom. And a boom, boom.
Justin Tucker, your official ironclad locked and loaded 100% guaranteed boom boom kicker of the week. There you go. That's bold. All right. I'm going to jump into a couple of questions. Mailbag. Mail bag. All right. Remember, if you got a question, go to the website, the fancy footballers.com, click the questions button or dial our voicemail hotline 302-464 TFB. We're going to do a couple voicemail questions to end the show today from the listeners. So let's jump into one right now. Hey, guys. This is Tim from Connecticut. I watch the show.
I have a question about tight ends. I have Tyler Eifert and I have Jimmy Graham. I'm constantly debating who to start between those. Another option is I could flex one of them, but one of them flex over Devonte Booker. What should I do? Thanks. What do you guys think? See, this is why, you know, those hard, some people might not know whether it start Tyler Eifford or not. That being said, my number two ranked is Jimmy Graham.
And they flip for me in scoring formats. If you're in any kind of half point or full point PPR, Jimmy Graham will absolutely have more targets and probably more yards than Tyler Eifert. So I lean Jimmy Graham. Graham is my number one. Yeah, even over my Tyler Eifert. If you're in a standard league where touchdowns reign supreme, I feel like Eifford is guaranteed the touchdown. So I would go Eifer. Do you start either of them over Booker in the flex? If it's a PPR, I start.
I think I start Jimmy Graham over Booker and the Flex. Oh, man, I don't, I don't blame it. Why are they not throwing Devante Booker the ball? He's a spectacular pass catching running back. That was one of his strengths. Strengths coming out of college was, oh, he's a great pass catcher. Throwing the ball. It's ridiculous. Yeah, the offense has been disjointed without Simeon and some of the tumult. So I don't know. All right. Here's another voicemail question.
Hey, guys. Love the show. You make my drive home 10 times better every day. Quick question. Car against Kansas City when you put up a sinker last time in cold weather or Big Ben at Buffalo and taking a chance on away Big Ben. Twist is that Cooper is getting played against me in this matchup, so playing car could potentially cap the damage. Thanks again for all the help. Love you guys. Bye.
I love you too, buddy. It's Big Ben for me. Easy, easy, easy, peasy. Big Ben on the road, huh? Big Ben on the road or Derek Carr on the road in Arrowhead, the place where they literally broke the Guinness World Record for loudest stadium. I agree, but the truth is... I have Big Ben one spot higher. One spot higher in standard list. I have Big Ben two spots higher, but I big Ben, my...
the two spots higher, that's spot 13. I feel like in the playoffs, you've got to do better than a quarterback two. The thing is, is if you have to debate the merits of they're both on the road and they both have a quote unquote tough situation, you know, Buffalo is not really in the hunt, you know, whereas Kansas City is a legit upper tier type of team. I still think there's upside for car, but I'd go Big Pin.
Yeah, I mean, I would look for a James Winston or Kirk Cousins or Phillip Rivers if for any reason they're out there. Otherwise, they're not. You got to make this decision, Jason. I'm just trying to help the listeners, the best thing. Final question. Very important. Richard in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Why does Jason hate Chandler Cantonzo so much? Someone finally noticed. What did they notice, Jason? They noticed that no matter what, and this is full disclosure, on my rankings, Chandler Cantonzo will always be.
Kicker number 32, unless there's a buy week, in which case maybe 30 or 28, depending on how many teams are on buy. But he will always be my last rate kicker because he sucks, and I hate him. As a Cardinals fan, he has ruined our season. Bitter. Bitter. That's the only, look, I'm going to sneak it in at kickers. My bias doesn't come in anywhere else. No, that's one locked and loaded. I don't even want to do. Doom, doom kicker of the. I don't want kickers in fantasy football, so I don't care if I give you bad advice on Chandler Canton-Zaro.
