Because I'm not talking about. Oh, you would know. I'm not talking like, you would have that matchup undressed. They played Michael Gallup over Michael Thomas. No, I'm talking. You know, that's, that would be where, you know, it's, it's, you look over and they got a bench just full of points. But I, that's the, that's just, I'm just illustrating the two-sided equation. I get what you're saying. If you've got Michael Gallup and Calvin Ridley, you can make the argument, you know, look.

Inside the episode
116 passagesGallup's been hotter than Calvin Ridley, and I'm going to choose to put him in. You are winking throughout your lineup process this week. All right. Patty Ice 8 on Instagram. How would you handle it if your commission changed the playoff tiebreaker without consulting the rest of the league? The main issue being the tiebreaker is now significantly in his favor. This is. That's garbage. Oh, get out the league. That is. Flush that down the toilet. Look, you.
Thank you. You can't change. Oh, it's a long flush. You cannot change rules in the middle of the season. It's still going. Hold on. There we go. You can't change any rules in the middle of the season without 100% vote from the league. If you want to change things for next year, also you need to vote. For me, that's more like a 75%.
for a change in rules or any kind of structure for right now.
You need 100% of the people to agree to it. Well, here's the thing. It's ridiculous. Here's the thing. That's true in our leagues. We put everything to our leagues, and I would say the majority of people have to put things to a consensus vote and certain rule changes need 100%, certain need a majority, yada, yada, yada. There are leagues where the commissioner just decides. And I think that is okay. But even in those leagues, you cannot change a rule for thus this current season in the middle of this current season. People have drafted a certain way. The fact it favors him.
is outlandish. It is ridiculous. I mean. Please play this for him. Yeah. And if he has no shame, please exit. Yes. He either needs to undo the rule or everyone should leave the league right now. Mid-season. Yeah. This is a boycott sitch. A boycott sitch. As I always say. All right. Andrew Dry from Facebook says Ravens or 49ers defense.
for the fantasy football playoffs. Ravens. This sounds like a great use for our new strength of schedule tool we just put up. Yeah, that's not bad. It's also the Ravens. The Ravens play in Buffalo, in Cleveland, and at home against the Jets. I am less confident than you two about the Ravens defense because of the two road games. Buffalo and Cleveland could both put up some points.
Doesn't mean I think they're a bad playoff D. I chose to let them go in a league. I picked them up. And you did pick them up. Who are the 49ers matchups, though? They would be playing the Saints, Atlanta, the Falcons, and the Rams. Yeah, I mean, between those two, it's clearly Baltimore. The Rams, since the Rams, one, they've gotten healthier, and then the trade for Marcus Peters has. The Ravens. Yeah, I apologize. The Ravens. Since the Ravens have acquired Marcus Peters.
They are completely different. They're outstanding. Marcus Peters has changed everything for what they can do. And Jimmy Smith is back, right? Yeah. So with him and Marcus Peters, this has just been such a good defense, so much so that, look. Fourth, fourth, second, fourth, the last four weeks. Yeah, I mean, we don't always make a super early.
We're not even finished with the current week of games water bet for the following week. But when we do, mistakes are often made. I made a top 15 water bet with Jared Gough. I did see that. The more that I looked into the Ravens, you know, as I'm preparing. Well, I glanced. I tried to make you look into it live. I know, but I glanced. I was reading their finishes. I want. Look, I got to.
I got to be honest with the footclan. Our job here is to make sure people, you know, put their best foot forward. Jared Goff is my current quarterback 20. Yeah, it's putting your best fart forward. Yeah. With Jared Goff. The Ravens, it just speaks to your point. The Ravens have been a really, really good defense. I mean, look at the.
I mean, would you say that Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans are a really good offense? Of course. How did they do against Baltimore? How did New England do? They finish fourth against New England, too. Yeah, so I would definitely say the Baltimore Ravens. And I'm glad you dropped it, Andy. But it won't matter because Philip Rivers, and I won't make the playoffs. We're back, baby. All right. Let's go to another voicemail question. What's up, footballers? This is Mark from Washington State. Quick question for you.
redraft lead, half PPR, who would you rather have for the rest of the season, rank them for me, please. Devante Parker, Tyrell Williams, and Mike Williams. Thank you so much. Love the show. You said them in the order that I would vote them on. Parker, Tyrell, Mike. Wow, man, what a world for Devante Parker. It is the world we live in. Don't have the player.
I asked Brooks, and we'll save it for tomorrow. But tomorrow's quick question is going to be build the roster of players that will be the surprise league winners. And we'll have the opportunity of naming them. And Mike, we've been saying this for a while. Parker's on that list. He's going to be one of the whiteouts of that. Because of the schedule, because of the emergence of Parker as the target share leader, and you're going to have the variable of Ryan Fitzpatrick either being hurt.
or turnovering his way to the bench. But right now with him on the field, how much does that change if Josh Rosen takes over? 100%. Parker goes from the front of the list to the back of the list, and not even on the list. If Josh Rosen is the quarterback, he's off my roster. There's no reason to play him. Would he consider just retiring?
Would that be the ultimate? Like you said, leave the league with the commissioner if he makes a bad move. If the team just puts Josh Rosen into Parker, I am announcing my retirement from the national football. He's still a young guy. I think you go, ah, my groin. You could unretiret. You could on retire after a CBD venture. I will say this. I do think Tyrell Williams is close here. I don't think that's an easy, like Mike Williams is third, but Tyrell Williams has had a lot of good games. Yeah. Upcoming schedule the next two weeks is the Jets and the Chiefs.
So, you know, I think I'd like both of those players. All right, Instagram question. Do you believe Joe Mixen? This is from Zach Damien 88. Do you believe Joe Mixon can keep up his recent fantasy production? Yes. I think his fantasy production. Now, that's not to say he's going to get a touchdown in every game. So you'll be a little bit disappointed, but his volume will stay. The talent isn't going away. So let's have a good day.
I would say the last four or five, thank you for rhyming. The last four or five games have really been a boon to the psychology of all who own him in Keeper in Dynasty League. So let's put it that way. Because the quarterback situation is not good. The team situation is not good. And yet he's been productive. It sure seems like they're going to have their pick of a quarterback next year. Yeah. And we've got variables on that front now. Yeah. So that's going to be. That stinks.
Going to be very, very interesting. Did you know the Megalodon? Oh! Is one week. One week away. Seven days from now. Megalodon! Very nice. The Megalodon show. One week away, Brooks. Are you ready? No. No, you're not. The book is not ready. You can never be ready. That is the right answer. No one has ever been ready for the Megalodon.
Not even us. You don't know what will come. I have been drinking five Thirst Busters a day. Wow, that's the prep. I'm due. You got to prep prep that, prepare that bladder. Pre-pre-pre-pre-it, man. Prep it. Oh, yeah. No, I've been stretching my hammies. You're stretching out your bladder with the Thurz Buster so that you can endure the long show. Yes. I see. I've never really went to the, went to bat for my bladder like that. Hmm.
You got to do what you got to do. That's why I'm a professional. Yeah, clearly you also have diabetes. Not yet, but soon. But maybe next week. That's next Wednesday. That's one week from, unbelievable. Yeah. Anytime I say one week, it's the same day it is now. There's always seven days. It's seven days from now. It's going to be amazing. All right. We want to thank our studio sponsor, Pristine auction today. Levion Bell, signed Jersey. Oh, my gosh.
Can I guess? $32.76? That's absurd. $32.76. Autographed Jet's jersey. Wait, does this mean it's autographed by Adam Gaze? No. Because that would be. Nobody wants it. Oh, that's rough. Oh, that is. Is that, I mean, look, maybe this is all about how great pristine auction is. They are great. You can win auctions. Maybe there's a little indictment on the left bell right now. You're talking about my start of the week tomorrow? Oh, spoiler. All right.
