Week 11 Studs & Duds, Rising Stars, Booger in the Paint

This episode is brought to you by State Farm. Every football fan is different. Some won't wash their lucky mustard-stained jersey until the season's over. Some insist they can't sit down on third downs and some pick their favorite team because, I don't know, just like football fandom, nobody's life is exactly the same. And that's why State Farm gets to know you, not as a policy number, but as an actual person.

so they can help personalize a coverage plan that's just for you. Whether it's game day or just another Tuesday, State Farm has you covered.

All the footballers are still breathing, as far as I know. Barely.

Jason, uh, Jason had a rough afternoon. And here, there was an incident. Here's what's so funny about it is, um, we, Brooks, make a note. I want to upgrade our, um, security cameras here at the studio. Because I, uh, I went back to the tape of yesterday afternoon and I'll have to pull it up and clip it out and put it on Twitter. But there was a moment in the game. Now, Jason, I'm going to set the table and I'll let you have your rant. But there was a point.

Yesterday, where Jason's in his dynasty matchup, and he's got Carson Wince, and his opponent has Drew Brees, and there's a fourth and seven, and Drew Brees and them are already up by, like, 600 points. And when he threw that fourth and seven touchdown to Alvin Camara, I had to crawl on the ground, like a man escaping. You were in the trenches. I was in the trenches, and Mike and I just covered our faces. We didn't want to see Jason, and he just closed his laptop.

got up and walked out and went home. Yeah, I took my ball and went's home just like Carson did. I mean, you guys probably did not know this. You can't tell from the camera footage, but when that pass was caught by Camara and you could tell what was clearly about to happen.

My eyelids slowly came down and were closed for the next, whatever, 10, 15 seconds before my laptop slowly closed. And I said, I'd take my ball and wins home. It was terrible. It stunk. I thought, I mean, it was such an important. When I was, it was funny, like, I don't know, 40 minutes beforehand, the morning games are all over. I say, oh, good, I'm projected to win by 30. That means I'll lose. And Mike gives me grief. He's like, oh, come on.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard you say. Because you had Wence and Ertz in the matchup of the week. Well, not the matchup because that's tonight, but the second best matchup of the week. Yeah, you win some, you lose. On paper. Improbable. Well, I'll share some of the Monday Punday Foot Clan one liners. Go from Wince you came. Mm-hmm. Yeah, Wince, not good. Carson. Wim.

Carson winced the bed? That's good. Oh, that's supposed to be wets the bed. Yeah, he certainly did. Should have winced with a different QB. Yeah. Anybody would do. Anybody at all. Like father, like son, cars, son, wince. What is that, Brooks? What does that even mean? Carr's, Derek, Carr, Cars, son, wince. I thought it was funny. I still don't get it. You thought that was funny? Yeah. Cars son. Cars son.

Carson. Cars son. Oh. You win some, you lose some. Wow, that is. Hey, Brooks. Well, congrats. You made it on the show. Brooks. Knock, knock. Who's there? Interrupting cow. Interrupting cow. Moo! Is that hilarious, Brooks? Wow, Mike is not happy with Brooks. He's not going to let you. I said Carson Grinch. I mean, it's a Christmas season, and he destroyed you, left some coal under the tree.

That was rough, man. He had the worst outing against New Orleans since Mark Sanchez in 2009. You don't want to be in any sentence with Mark Sanchez. No, you don't. Ryan fits nicely on my bench. Yeah, he's back on the bench. Bori Davis. Yeah, that was no good. T. Why did I bench Hilton? Hmm.

You didn't listen to Mike. That's why. I'm looking into your souls, America. You should not have done that. You got to believe. Ricky Tears Jones. Oh, yeah. As much as I got the Hilton call, right? Delvin cooked. Did you guys see the tweet? Yeah, I saw it. Okay. I don't think so. It's not, it seems impossible. It seems impossible, but it happened. Oh, the game. So, so we had a Foot Clan member.

Slid in the timeline with a screenshot of his final score. And he said, I lost. And it was like a half of a point. Yes. By about 0.5. He went in to Sunday night football up by one with Dalvin Cook. He was up by one with a starting running back. And he lost. Wait a minute. He.

Lost because of Dalvin Cook's fumble. You're telling me that even though I am already down one and a half points going in against Tyreek Hill, I could win if Tyree Kil gets a handoff that he fumbles and gets injured on that play, I will win. And Dalvin had nine carries. That's insane. So you get nine carries, you fumble.

You score negative and you lose by half a point. That is painful. Maybe he had negative passing yards as well. There's not a player in the entire league that has hurt fantasy owners more than Dalvin Cook. He's been injured, but he's had now like three games where you've tried to play him. And whoops. Whoops. Whoops. And then the one week where we're like, hey, let's let's let him come back.

He busted 75-yard 22-mile-an-hour run off. It makes you go, I guess I should play it. But the bears were great, and last night, wow. All right. He's wicked. We'll get into all the studs and duds on the show. The Weekly Rewind Rising Stars on the show today as well. I guess we already got into one of the duds with that pun that Brooks picked out. Speaking of DUD. You know, not all the puns were duds. No. Question. How much does a week 11 win weigh? I don't know.

About an ingram. Yeah. Maybe all of them are. Twitter.com slash the fantasy footballers. That was the one that was going to save us. It's really the footclans fault. I mean, we're just, we're just reading. They just didn't, they didn't show up like Zach Earths this week. That's all. I think that one's good, too. I stand by. Of course you do. You put them all in here, Brooke. Clever. You picked your favorite ones out. I actually did like that one. Yeah. Thank you, Jason.

Yeah, we'll get more people involved in this process. I'm just kidding, Brooks. Did you have a good weekend? Yes, sir. All right, good. Stay with us. All right, DFSpass.com. Don't forget, check that out heading into the weekend. It's discounted. And the DFS pass picks were amazing this week. The DFS pass, which is still on sale, it's only $29 bucks, and the DFS pod. I mean, those two things this last week, screenshot after screenshot.

people killing it in their Fandual Draft King lineups. Just ridiculous here that calls us last week. Guess what? What? This week, the Megalodon is coming. Oh. Megalodon. Hey, I actually prepped by watching the Meg. I watched it this week. How was it? It was unbelievably great. It was pretty much Oscar. I think it'll be, I think it'll win the best picture.

Now, that's based on a really long podcast. Is that correct? Is that what that? 100% true. I was really disappointed that Jason Statham did not punch the shark. Does he punch the shark? He never punched the shark in the face. But he did even better. You'll have to watch. Okay. Not a sponsor. Seriously. All right. Let's get into the rewind. Weekly rewind.

Alex Smith is done for the season, fractured fibula, tibia. It was a gruesome injury, and I feel bad for him. Colt McCoy. Looks like he'll be the quarterback for a very depleted, destroyed division winner right now. For those who didn't follow the story, I mean, the irony of the world is sometimes just unbelievable. This was the anniversary of the Joe Thysman injury.

who Joe Weizman was at the game. And then Alex Smith goes down with this injury. I saw it wasn't that he was at the game. It's the same day it happened. It was the anniversary. And same injury. They had the same injury. They had the same. This is impossible. They had the same final score of both of those games. No. And they both happened on the 40 yard line.

No, that part's a joke. No, I mean, I saw it on Twitter, so. Oh, it must be real. Must have to be real. It's unbelievable. Andy's right. Alex Smith will be done for the season. So Colt McCoy. His contract says he will be back. Yeah. Oh, he'll be back. Marcus Mariotta was forced from the game with an injury. Due to horrific play. Oh, I thought you were going to say horrific mustache play. Oh, who's, whose mustache do you dislike more? Marcus Mariotta.

Or Mitchell Trubisky. They both suck. Yeah, they're both right. Trubisky's beard game is good. Yeah. But I don't know what he's doing with the stash trim. Well, he didn't want to go full like Abe Lincoln. So he got to do something. No, both of their facial hair game is bad. But Mariotta's game on the field was worse. Exited with a elbow injury. Barely. Carry on Johnson's going to have an MRI on his knee today. Unfortunately, spraying knee at minimum. This is.

Big news in the sense that, you know, they're saying they don't believe it's a tear. They think it's just a sprain, which is great. Still could end up missing, you know, a week or two. But this was kind of what we heard about Darius Geis. So we really need that MRI result. They thought, eh, it's not going to be a tear. And then he was done for the season. Yeah, very unfortunate.

Doug Martin absent from the second half of the game, the Raiders decided to go with a committee of Dwayne, I'm sorry, not Dwayne Washington. DeAndre Washington and Jalen Richard, or as the announcer would say, Richard. Richard. As we were watching the game, there was no news about Doug Martin injuring his ankle. And we were actually hypothesizing, why is Doug Martin on the sideline? We thought it was because he was playing.

Too well. Too well for John Gruden and his master plan, but apparently he had the ankle injury. Brandon LaFelle suffered a rupture of kill his tendon or is feared to have suffered one. There are no wide receivers remaining for Derek Carr. Joe Flacco, not expected back for week 12. Lamar Jackson went 13 for 19, 150 passing yards.

27 carries. Most by a quarterback of all time. Yes. And 117 yards rushing. I believe it was the last record was 22 held by Tim Tebow, which is very far away from when you're talking to records. 22 is the record. And he's like, yeah, watch watch this. And the reality is, you know, he finished as the quarterback 10. So far. Sands tonight. So he'll be in the top 12 no matter what. And.
