The Giants defense has been awesome. Despite the fact that the Steelers put up points by the end, they get after it. They, I mean, they're number one in sacrate in the NFL and they play the Carolina Panthers the following week. Any interest in Arizona at home against what we saw from Chicago's offense last week? I think it's dicey. I would say that's a. a possible DFS play because they're probably super cheap, but you probably don't need to do that in your redraft leagues. Okay. By the way, Mike, Jason's going to be out on Friday. I don't know if you knew this. Yeah, I did not. He's not going to be here. I don't know if it's one of these. I was, I don't know if it's one of the. Oh, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way. So I'm bringing it up because. Way, way, way, way, way, way, way. I'm thinking Thursday shame, Mike. I don't see why Thursday can't be the shame.

55:13 ↗

Because you got to have it on for the whole segment. Yeah, we'll do this segment. What did we did the segment on Thursday? Gonna move this segment up? No. We've done this before. No, I'm not, no. So what's the story? I don't know. We'll figure it out. I am in control of it. I'll tell you what. It was lighter. Oh, now it's not. Punishment will be not light. Oh, okay. I was taking it easy on you. Oh, no. Yeah, now you're skipping out. You're a rich in this thing. Oh, no. All right. What would Ryan Kelly say? He'd say it's not the expectation that we have set for this high of a standard of a podcast. That's right. But I'm giving it my all when I'm here. I love it. Full stream ahead. All right. Streaming quarterback options. I'm going with the maybe antithetical on the surface, but really not in reality. Bo Nix. I tried to put him in there. Did you? And then Brooks is like,

56:19 ↗

you got to change your stream. I'm like, why? He's like, because Andy already had him in there. Yeah, buddy. Are you sure? Did he beat me? It's Baltimore in Baltimore. Bo Nix is the quarterback 10. He's had three or four weeks with multi-touchsones and the Baltimore Ravens. You can throw the football against the Baltimore Ravens. And you can do it if you're James Winston or Baker Mayfield, you know, Joe Burrow and Dak and even Minshu. Like they're giving up more points against the expectation. over the last eight weeks than a lot of other teams. In fact, they're the second worst against quarterback. Bonix is a great streaming option. I am in agreement. I will throw out Maddie Stafford, who has his boys back. Pooka's back. Cooper Cup is back. And wouldn't you know it? Four passing touchdowns here for Matt Stafford. And he gets to play the Seattle Seahawks, which this is a since week four, Seattle's defensive ring.

57:16 ↗

30th and points per game allowed and 25th against quarterbacks. This is a prime situation for Matt Stafford. And I'm going to go with a guy. Oh my gosh. Sometimes. Holy crap. Sometimes it's in the shop and you get the car. Send in the car. You get the car out of the shop and you're ready to take it for a spin. Look at me. I don't want you to hear what do you say? Don't hear what I'm not saying. You're a lunatic. Uh-huh. You don't have to do this, man. You don't have to do this. So here's the thing. You did this once before. How did that go? It went poorly. Okay. However, they weren't playing Carolina. This is a Saints team that has a 25 point implied team total on the road. That says two things. That says that the Panthers are terrible. We saw their car.

58:07 ↗

carve them up earlier this season. And then it also says that Derek Carr's expectations to be back because you wouldn't have 25. It'd be a bad stream if he wasn't. Implied point total for Spencer Rat Tail or whoever the third string quarterback was went in. So Derek Carr, assuming he is active, I think you can stream him this week. Or if you're in a two QB league, I have him in one. I'm going to be starting him this week. Could have got like Justin Herbert. Justin Herbert's coming off a great game, but he has not done a lot. Yeah, but the car, the Derek Carr victory lap, Mike, that's the sweetest. Yeah. That's the sweetest of all laps. It's not only is it the sweetest of all laps when it inevitably does not work. You're like, it was Derek Carr. That's your fault. What do you want for me? No, I'm going to be, I'm going to be drifting, man. I'm going to be taking this car. I'm going to my back time's going to be.

58:54 ↗

making him the uh like if he has to dress up sometime like do the raccoon eyes for car like making oh yeah you could dress up as car i i expect after this week to put one of these ws on for the first time for the first time since week two i i think i'm going to put one of these w's on the uh shave head meter you sure and then i and then i think i will put one more on by the end of the season that's my four wins that's my guess would you drop The three candidates that we have here. Anthony Richardson, would you drop that landmine onto the waiver wire? I 100% would. If you have fab trading open, I was able to trade him for $2. Fab. Best investment I've made in a while. How'd that investment go over there? We didn't plan. Yeah, okay. It was wise. You didn't have the sunken cost fallacy. You just got out.

59:48 ↗

Caleb Williams, after two great weeks, fell on his face, and are you letting go of Caleb, or do you view him as a keeper still? Caleb Williams is a streaming option, so I'm fine letting him go. However, he's on the road in Arizona this week. Seems like a pretty good matchup, so this wouldn't be, this would be a streaming candidate. I would be fine starting him this way. And it's in here, Jay, so I'm going to read it. Dak, Poop, Scott. No. What? No. You're not dropping Dak Press. Quarterback 18 on the season. You drop it like it's hot. See if people are, see if people drop Dak. I brought it up. I brought it up from after the buy, he had the one of the best schedules for quarterback's rest of the season. The biggest hardship was this past week against the San Francisco 49ers. I knew coming out of the buy, that was a tough matchup. After that, it's pretty nice slay. Well, now week 12 on the road against Washington.

60:41 ↗

I mean, maybe Washington is great. Who knows? All right. That is it for today's episode. Hungry for More TNF preview and a midseason review on tomorrow's show. And then Thursday, Friday, we'll jump right back into the matchup, starts of the week. And I was going to say Wheel of Shame, but, you know, we're just going to tap. We're going to tap out on Friday. And what you're doing something with your son, huh? Yeah, it's a father's son school day. They do the whole day. It used to be donuts. Bring your dad to school day? It used to be donuts with dad. Like you'd go for the morning, have a donut and leave. Now it's the whole day. It's the entire day. Apparently the school sanctioned paintball. What? You got school paintball? Yeah. Okay. That's a pretty good excuse. Yeah. That's not bad. Wait. I got to blast them. Hold on. So is this?

61:28 ↗

This is like your father and son. Are you duo or are you teens? I have no idea yet. But it would. It's one v one for all the dads and sons. If it was dads against sons, I have no idea who would win that. I literally, I mean. Mobility. Mobility versus video games. You're a bigger target than he is. Huh? Yes, that's true. What if he stays in the post paintball paint for the weekend, Mike? Is that count as his shame? No. Okay. I'm not getting hit. Uh-huh. All right, that'll do it for today's show. Shout out to the deucers over there, Alborn and the company. Thank you guys. We'll be back tomorrow. Goodbye. Thank you for listening to another episode of the Fantasy Footballers podcast.
