Week 10 Matchups + Double Shame, Chase BOOM! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 11/8

excitement. His DK passing yards line is 260. Oh, that's really good. I just feel like maybe, you know, he's obviously been very good with these two guys on the field. You have to contrast that with the Denver, or I'm sorry, the dolphin defense being so good against quarterbacks. I just think they're on to something right now in Los Angeles. And I don't know, like if this game was on the road in Miami, I would be more out. But at home, control the environment, I'm kind of. I'm kind of kicking against the analytics with Stafford. I don't know how dumb that's going to look. Let's actually dive a little deeper to see because right now the Miami Dolphins are number two against quarterbacks over the course of the season. They're giving up a on average negative 4.2 fantasy points against what that quarterback's average usually is. However, you had Tua knocked out halfway through the Buffalo game. And so then you had a four game stretch.

against Seattle, Tennessee, New England, and Indianapolis. And in those four games, where the offense of the dolphins could do absolutely jack squat. And so the offense of the opposing matchups really didn't have to do anything while they lost all those games. You had negative 5.9. I remember the Richardson game, too, where he was inept. Yeah, negative 8.6, negative 5.9, negative 6.4. Those were in the two-illess games. Two has been back for two games. Against Arizona, Kyler. had a great game. He was eight points over his expectation or his average. Then you had Josh Allen last week, two and a half points over his average. So he's got a good average. And he's got a good average. So maybe the dolphins, when you look at them as a matchup, because this is what's been fear. This is what I've been fearful of is you can run on the dolphins. They're not passing on the dolphins well this year. And they do have some talent. They got Jalen Ramsey back there. However.

I think some of those metrics are, I don't know if it would be inflated or deflated, but I think they're wrong. I think they are indicative of more of the Tua injury. So I am warming up to Matthew Stafford in this matchup. Well, Vegas has a high overrunner in this one. I mean, A-chan has been incredible. We still haven't had a big game from Tarek Hill since the return of Tua. It could happen here. No question. We're all waiting to see if Jalen Waddle, who you now no longer have to play, can get it done. I think I will play him. What do you think, man, Ladd McConk, or Jalen Waddle? What do you think, man? I'd be playing one of those two for sure. Yeah. I'd have to. I will too. Mike? Where are you with Waddle right now? Receiving lanes 42 and a half. So Jalen Waddle is... Which is only...

What? It's only five more than Jono Smith. Your tooth almost come flying out your mouth. I don't want to talk about it. Oh, that is. You might have heard it, though. So we're in a weird place with Jalen Waddle. Look, he, when I'm looking at Waddle, I'm always looking at how is he keeping pace with Tyree Kill? And it's like, Tyree kills, of course. Way better for fantasy and he's a better wide receiver than Jaylon Waddle. But it's not like Tyree Kiel himself is is not having these huge electric games. Even with two aback the last two. It's been better than Waddle, but it's like they're they're both not succeeding. So that's interesting. As long as they're both not succeeding.

I'm not going to completely give up on Jaila Walsh. N are affecting both of them. They are. With the yards per game. Like Waddle's averaging one yard more than Johnu per game this year. That is reason enough to sit Waddle down. I will see again, when Tua was gone, Johnu was everything. I mean, Johnu was an incredibly, he probably led the team in targets during that stretch. I don't have that in front of me, but just from memory, that's what it looked like. John who's still involved with Tua. It hasn't really stopped. I mean, six targets, six targets. Yeah, and A-chan has been like eight targets, eight targets. So I agree that those two guys have. Eight-chan. Eight-chann. Eighths, well, that's a whole other thing. That's the website you don't want to go to. Oh, that's right. That's not four-chan? No, no, it is. Is there an eight-chan too? It's got to be way worse. It's double worse, I guess. Anyways. Never mind.

I, like, I'm thinking about this game script wise, a 50 point over under. The, the, what Waddle still can do, he got a touchdown last week and had an insane, you know, play at the end that took away like 20 of his yards. If I'm looking at Ladd-McConkie against Tennessee or Jalen Waddle in this matchup against, you know, a really high over-under and the 26th ranked defense against wide receivers. I think I'm going to play Waddle in this matchup. Andy's cackling and I don't know why. Go take a look at our League of Record feed. He just put Jamar Chase on the block.

and instantly stared into my soul. He looked at me immediately. You should trade for him. Al Borland looked at me immediately and just started shaking his head. To give a little context for why Owl is so specifically mad, owl the day before, I believe it was the day before, was trying to trade for Chase. He poked the current manager of Chase and said, hey, I don't know if you're looking to sell or not, but I'd love to look into Chase. And he basically said, I'm not selling. I'm in it. And Chase is untouchable. And then the next day makes a surprising offer to Andy's inbox of would you like Jamar Chase for not that much, much less than what Jeremy would have offered. It was taking a shot on the Amari Cooper trade to Buffalo. Yeah. I mean, you got to call your shots sometimes. And oftentimes the same manager called his shot on Tyrone Tracy. Yeah. And it felt like it was bad. And it was a brilliant move because Tyrone Tracy looks like.

Could be a league helpful winner down the stretch. But that's why Owl is especially upset is because he feels like he should have Chase. But bringing it back full circle. He's on the block. He's available to be had now. Send me your offers. Okay. So, look, the decision is on the other side outside those, the quarterbacks, they're not hard. Kyron Williams, Cooper Cup, Pook and Nakua, Demarcus is an emergency play in a high over under. He could get something done. I think people are always hesitant when you're the third option at wide receiver, but it can happen. I mean, we saw it with these guys on the field two weeks ago, two touchdowns. That's the only place he thrives, Andy, is being the third option. Yeah, that's fair. Some injury updates before we get into fancy face off, apparently. Dave Canales said it's a possibility that Jonathan Brooks could play Sunday, but not a guarantee. Oh, my gosh. I did see his status go from healthy to questionable. So he is.

You know, they've signed a contract, and now they're like, maybe we can wait. They have activated him, so he will be part of the roster. If he is, he'll basically be a healthy scratch if he doesn't play. But he should play football this year. And goodness, I hope it's this week. By the way, I want to make sure we're clear about the Nico Collins news. The Nico Collins news was not that he's playing on Sunday. The news was the first step of playing on Sunday, which is designated to return to practice. So now you can go. be on the practice field. That is 100% true. It is not a guarantee he would play. However, it would be a shocking situation to me because they didn't have to activate them. They have plenty of time. But you do need to activate them to know if you can practice and be. Right. Okay. Correct. But this means that they will have to have taken another roster player and gotten rid of that roster player to make room for Nico ahead of the game. It pushes me to the point where.

I'm willing to risk it now. Like I'll try to find my emergency backup plan, but my plan will now be Nico instead of taking a morning player and just be like, I'll, I'll miss out on Nico this way. I've got a couple trade offers for Chase that I'm going to have to decline. I'm sorry. I'm going to have to let him go. All right. I guess we got to do this. Fantasy face off presented by Draft Kings. Well, we have a. We've got two weeks to pay out here with the Wheel of Shame. Jason lost two weeks ago. I lost last week. And Mike is the winner of both. I am the winner by not being the loser. Are we spinning the wheel? Is it one spin? It's one spin? Wait, I didn't hear what you were saying because I was putting Nico Collins in my roster. I won this week. Is that what you said? You won last week. Yes, this past week. What I was saying was that you lost. But you're a loser. You lost two weeks ago. I lost this past week.

And Mike wins because he's not spinning the wheel. Yes, sure. I just wanted to make sure it was clear. Oh, my God. No one cares. Oh, yeah. No one cares. They're going to look at you like a winner when you're dressed up. We've got to spin the wheel, Jason. And apparently it's one spin to rule them all. Wheel of shame. I don't like this. Papa Josh back there smirking like he thinks this one's got this stuff. Spin the wheel, guys. Well, so we got a, was there something there was a pizza face, mall cop. fighting Irish. Oh, the gnome zone. That's not the bone zone. No, it is not. Oh, we're just, you like red or do you like blue? I like red. Okay. I would, I would start with beard, then go ears, then go hat. Wait, we have a beard? Yeah. Mike can describe what the heck's going. So the, the boys are putting on their very shameful gnome, uh, outfits here. Jason went, Jason's going, uh,

David the Nome. Was there a beard problem? Oh, your beard's coming off. My beard. Oh, no. It's backwards. I thought it was already ruined. It was just a backwards beard. It's very uncomfortable, Mike. It's a really long beard. No, put the ears on. Put the ears on. Do not, come on. Get in the other than Nome zone. Why are the ears so high up on Andy's head? That's where they are, Mike. It's not up to us. It's up to the costume. All right. Wow. This is Andy looks like Merlin. There are two idiots here. Oh, man. This is so good. This is, man, we look so stupid. What is the YouTube address, Al? YouTube.com slash the fantasy footballers. The ears look real stupid. I don't like it. At least I can breathe a little. Oh, my gosh. This beard, though. All right. So we get to share our lineups looking like morons. Yep.

This is so uncomfortable. All right. Quarterback, I'm going Brock Purdy, 6,500. All right. I am, I already hate my lineup. I'm going Justin Herbert against that Tennessee Titans matchup because he was only 5,200, a disrespectful price. I'm hoping that it works and he gets enough points. You got some beard in your mouth over there? Proceed with your pit. We're alive, boys, because I'm going Aaron Rogers at 5,700 against the Arizona Cardinals. Okay, okay. Come on, Andy, get it together. What's wrong over there? Easy and some beer. I'm eating so much beer. All right. We decided we weren't going to ban Alvin Camara because that. Wait, what? That would make the worst lineup. So Alvin Camara at 8100. DeAndre Swift is 6,500 my start of the week. Oh. I've got Alvin Camara as well as 8100 and Jonathan Taylor at 7,500 against Buffalo at home. I had that as a lineup, but I did pivot. I remade some stuff. But Alvin Camara, of course.

And then I went with Aaron Jones. Yeah, 6,700. At 6,700 against the Yaxaville Jaguars. I could not squeeze that extra 200 out to get him in there. My wide receivers, this is why I couldn't. Justin Jefferson at 8800, Joanne Jennings stacked with Purdy at 5,100. And then at 4,200, I am going Jalen McMillan. If he doesn't play, it's a pivot into Sterling Shepherd at the same price. And what if he doesn't play? Then it is a pivot into somebody ugly at 4,200. Okay. I have Joanne Jennings as well as 5,100. Oh, wow. I did not spend up on any wide receivers, which is usually a terrible idea. Well, you got all that cash in Johnny Taylor. Yeah, Johnny Taylor and Alvin Camara. I've got DeAndre Hopkins at 5300. Seems like a missed-priced player. And I'm stacking Justin Herbert with Quentin Johnson, so Legerius Sneed. Oh, look out.

Take your time getting back. Watch out. I got a huge stack. What was your third player? Hopkins, Jennings, and Quentin Johnston. Okay. I like that for me. All right. Go ahead, Mike. Jennings is wiped because I have him as well. Dustin, or Dustin Hopkins. Dustin Hoffman? DeAndre Hopkins, 5300. Oh, you have him too. I do. I hate the matchup against Denver, but the price was too nice. I feel like the price is indicative of. We're still not sure. Like we could have a week where he disappeared. Well, they were Monday night football, right? Yeah. Yeah. So Monday night football players are a little cheat code for future playing. Monday night football players don't get their price adjusted based on performance. But I got Rogers. So, of course, I have the number one fantasy wide receiver since week five. Garrett Wilson at 7200. I almost had Adams in my lap. I pivoted off of him. My tied in Hunter Henry at 3,900.

My defense, the Patriots at 2,500 against Chicago, I feel like they are priced really cheaply and yet can do some stuff. And then I am double stacking. I took the affordable Ricky Pierce Hall at 4,400. Oh, okay. I'm going, uh, Joanne Ginny. I'm very San Francisco oriented this week. Uh, I, uh, paid down for Juan Johnson at tight end, 3,300. And I paid up a little bit on my defense for the Bears on the other side of your, uh, New England Patriots. But most of my money went to the fact that not only do I have Alvin Kamer and Jonathan Taylor, but I've also got Breece Hall at 7600. Look at this guy. So Bruce Hall gets rushing touchdowns, Mike. That's because you've got the Aaron Rogers Garrett Wilson stack. That's going to be a big me versus you. I have the Patriots as well. And then I'm running out 12 personnel boys. I thought about it this week, man. At the tight end position.

Mr. Cade Otten at 5500 and then Hunter Henry is just. Oh, okay. Hunter Henry is like the cheapest player who I think actually will get production. 3,900. So that's my lineup. What's your defense? The Patriots. Okay. Yeah, they were affordable. Yeah, I wish I could get the bears, but. Why don't you, why don't you close a segment out? Not because I'm choking on gnome hair. You guys look fabulous. I mean, it's a really, it's a really good look. This is a real tweedledy, tweedledum situation. This beard is so long. The beard is fantastic.
