Brooks stores the champion's ruby beside his eggs

A host asks for the championship scepter, hears that its weak handle and real ruby are back in a vault with Brooks's eggs, and explains Brooks's office absence through a yacht and a permanently airborne plane. All of this is dialogue fiction or reported backstory; the video shows none of those objects, vehicles, or Brooks.

Week 18 gets a backup kitty-cat Megalodon growl

The final-week matchup marathon is technically a Megalodon, but backup-heavy Week 18 earns only a backup, third-string, Tanner McKee, kitty-cat version of the normal growl.

moment

The OG Nasty Boys return from old title lineups

Jarrett Patterson and Hassan Haskins are named the OG Nasty Boys, and the hosts recall winning a championship with Patterson's legs and Haskins in the lineup despite negligible help from Haskins.

GroinIndex.com sees every groin

A tight-end injury question opens the fictional GroinIndex.com, which claims to see everyone's groins and assigns Harold Fannin, Mason Tipton, and Cody White the identical quote 'ah, my groin.'

Poopiest Pants voting is one week away

The Justin Jefferson and Brian Thomas disappointment debate points forward to next week's official Poopiest Pants vote during the Footies.

moment

Off-camera Al rejects the Wan'Dale height chart

The desk says Wan'Dale Robinson is around Jeremy's height; an unseen Jeremy repeatedly objects, earns 'Good point, Al,' and is reassigned to the supposedly much taller five-foot-nine Andy Isabella.

moment

Arizona's two bright stars float in spoken vomit

The hosts call the Cardinals the worst franchise in all sports, condemn nearly every part of the organization, and spare only Trey McBride and Michael Wilson as bright stars in a sea of vomit. The ocean, stars, and vomit are metaphors spoken over ordinary studio coverage, not shown graphics.

moment

Andy's Tomlin poll forgets neutral voters

Andy posts an in-or-out Mike Tomlin poll for Steelers fans without a view-results option, then learns that every curious non-fan must falsify the vote and that he could delete and repost it.

moment

Big Mouth physically hijacks Fantasy Faceoff

The visible green Wheel of Shame lands on BIG MOUTH. Mike physically spins it, inserts the clear Mouth Trap cheek retractor, keeps his mouth stretched open through his lineup, visibly drools, reports a saturated beard, and attempts the PrizePicks call to action through the device.

summary

Episode notes

The published video shows exactly the three regular hosts at the desk: Mike on the left, Jason in the center, and Andy on the right. No fourth person, cardboard bear, Jay graphic, Jay theme, or Jay sound cue appears; the opening transcript's apparent 'Jay' is an ASR error in a direct address to Jason, who is visibly answering. Mike enters as the Fantasy Hitman and the year's champion while another host wants to turn the page on a title loss. A requested championship scepter is said to be back in a vault with Brooks's eggs, and Brooks's absence becomes another spoken wealth fantasy involving a yacht and a permanently airborne plane; none of those objects or locations is shown. Week 18 is branded a Mini-Megalodon with a backup, third-string, kitty-cat growl. Jarrett Patterson and Hassan Haskins are recalled as OG Nasty Boys from old title lineups. GroinIndex.com supposedly sees every groin and gives three injured players the same quote. The show previews the annual Poopiest Pants Footie, uses Kyle as an off-camera research and quiz desk, and compares Wan'Dale Robinson's height to Jeremy's until the unseen Al objects. Arizona is called the worst franchise in all sports, with Trey McBride and Michael Wilson as bright stars in a spoken sea-of-vomit metaphor. Andy then posts a Mike Tomlin poll without a view-results option and learns that neutral voters will corrupt it. The closing Fantasy Faceoff is the episode's verified physical payoff: the on-screen Wheel lands on Big Mouth, Mike inserts the clear Mouth Trap cheek retractor, visibly keeps his mouth stretched open, drools into his beard, and attempts the sponsor read.

They're locked into the number seven seed. We'll see if they play Chicago for sure. In this game, do you... I think Josh Jacobs is the big question. Like, is Jacobs play? I think he does not. I don't think he does. They're locked into the seventh seed? They should not. Yeah, I mean, there's a reason Minnesota with Brosmer is a six and a half point favorite. I wouldn't... I'd be freaked out, man. ...have really anything to play for here, so... I mean, I don't think I'd start Josh Jacobs if he's active. Oh, man. Are you seeing this? So Matthew Golden, Kyle is giving us this stat. Matthew Golden, first round, wide receiver pick. One of eight first round rookies over the last decade without a touchdown. This list is Kevin, we buckle up. Kevin White. Bust. Laquan Shredwell. Bust. Josh Doxon. Bust. Mike Williams. Not a bust. John Ross. Bust. Corey Davis.

29:46 ↗

Took five years. Took five years. We finally got one out of him. Cadarius Tony. Bust. That's only one stat, but. But also everything else that you've seen from him has been bad. That's a, that's a bummer. This was the first receiver they took in over two decades in the first round. Is that right? And I know the Packers fans are a combination of baffled and infuriated by the situation. because, you know, you had injuries to Tucker Kraft in the middle of the season. Now, you had an injury to Matthew Golden as well that knocked him out of some time. But, like, they don't understand the utilization, and then now they're frustrated with the production, and it all works together for bad. And he joined some terrible company there. Green Bay, your, hey, GM, give us a call.

30:43 ↗

Give us a call when you're considering drafting a wide receiver in the first. We'll let you know. We can help you out. Are you talking about us individually? You didn't mean Arizona. No, no, no, no. We would take Andy Isabella. No, that's not at us. Us, the fantasy footballers. And we'll let you know if you should take that guy in the first. Malik Willis, I think it would be a really interesting start, not because it's a good matchup, but because he has a rushing floor. He was the running game for this team last week. And, you know, he played 83% of snaps and had 60 rushing yards. Yeah, the rushing baseline, I think, gives him an okay floor. But my goodness, I can't imagine him having multiple touchdowns in this game. This is the defense that gave Detroit Lions questions about is Jared Goff the future of his team? On the course of the season, the Vikings go up 7.8 fantasy points to quarterbacks. They're the toughest.

31:38 ↗

They're at home. That's impossible. I know. That's, yeah, it's crazy. They took over the spot from Houston, huh? Yeah. They've been. Well, that's because in the last six weeks, they've given up five in six weeks. Oh, Kevin O'Connell from the Vikings said McCarthy is progressing. The swelling has come down. The status for J.J. McCarthy will be determined. So I guess he's not ruled out yet. This game. If J.J. McCarthy plays, honestly, I would feel much better about Jefferson. Regardless of which quarterback is there. if they get to the fourth quarter and Justin Jefferson doesn't have 53 yards, they are going to throw it to him on every single play. They're going to go for it on fourth down and throw it to Justin Jefferson. They're getting him 53 yards. That's a good point. Dallas 7, 8 and 1 taken on the Giants 3 and 13, Dallas minus 3 and a half right now over under is 51.5. I don't feel good about DAC with the news and report from Jerry Jones about we don't know how long we'll play him. Giovante Williams got banged up. I don't feel good about him.

32:39 ↗

If I don't have DAC, I don't feel good about CD and Pickens. Agreed. And that makes that. How dare you not believe in Joe Milton, the third? I mean, there's that. He will throw it very hard. He is Bazooka Joe. He will throw the ball very hard. I mean, I'm not saying you can't play those guys. I can't imagine benching them under the ambiguity of DAC. I just don't feel very amazing about it. I didn't see the Jerry Jones quote. What exactly did he say about Dak? He basically said he's going to start, but, you know, I'm not going to say what the plan is for him. Okay. We're going to start DAC. How we use DAC, comma, let's make that part of the game plan that we won't talk about. Okay. That's a direct quote. I'm saying that to me, if you're like, hey, we're going to take DAC out, we're going to protect him. Why would you not do that with like CD Lamb? Yeah, you might. If you're the Dallas Cowboys. I'm more confident in George Pickens than CD Lamb for this game.

33:38 ↗

Oh, that stinks. You know, Wondale Robinson is the shortest receiver in the history of the National Football League? Do you have a thousand yards? I did see that. He just, he just surpassed the Wes Welker record. Wondale's had a pretty good season. He has a good player. He hasn't got enough credit for what he's done this year. I mean, he hasn't been very consistent at it, but with the quarterback play, you know, 1,000 yards. I'm proud of him. And it's a good matchup for him this week. I mean, obviously Dallas. He's like you're in, you and Jeremy's height. How dare you? How dare you? Right? You guys are like the same. Like if you're running around, you would look the same. No, no. How dare you? Good point, Al. Wondale and Jeremy, they can, they can, uh, go. You're more Andy Isabella. Thank you. He's five nine. Yeah, way taller. Yeah. Uh, Jake Ferguson hasn't hit 10 fancy points since week seven. Don't mess around there. But, um, we'll see, you know, it'd be nice to see Jackson Dart finish the season.

34:37 ↗

on a high note. I'd feel okay about him this week against Dallas defense. I'd play dart. Who just dumped Trayvon Diggs. Did you, did you see the story around that and what happened? I just saw the, didn't he hire? Like a lawyer or something? Well, I don't know what he's done since then. I know the story was basically he requested additional time, I think, in Washington because he has family there after their game. And the team said, no, we want you to come back to Dallas with us. And he's like, No, no, I don't. I'm just going to be flying right back to Washington. I don't want to do that. And then the team's like, you do whatever you want, man. See you. Wow. Yeah. So, mind you, this is the worst passing defense in the history of football. And Trayvon Diggs, I believe, I believe the stat I saw is opposing quarterbacks have a perfect 153.8.8.3 passerating win targeting Trayvon Diggs.

35:31 ↗

Perfect record. He made $70-something million basically on interceptions. Even that season when he was dominating with the interceptions, he was taking a lot of chances to get them. Right. And so the interception total is really, it's kind of like the sack story versus the pressure sometimes. It's like, you know, some of these guys, they're sack masters, but they can't stop the run game or things like that. He was a bit of an illusion. Okay, 156.3 passer rating. So it's not perfect. That's pretty good. It's close to perfect. Yeah. Tyrone Tracy, good play. He's been really good. He's been really good. Here's a cool stat from Underdog. Tyrone Tracy is the only player from the 24 last year's draft class to put up 800 yards from scrimmage this season. He was the 45th skill position player taking the last year's draft class. Last year's draft class.

36:25 ↗

That was great for last year. I mean, you had three, was it three wide receiver ones? Yeah, because it was Ladd, Brian Thomas Jr., Malik neighbors. I mean, it was a really good draft class. They did not have a great sophomore season. No, no. And then you even had like standouts like Bucky Irving, who's basically been invisible this year. Tennessee's three and 13 taken on the 12 and four Jacksonville Jaguars. I've been told to ask you who led the Titans in Target Share this year. Who led the Titans in Target Share? Now, I don't see the answer on here, so hopefully Kyle is listening and can reveal it. Okay, so we're saying early it would have been Ridley. Oh, I haven't. Then he went away. Then you had Ayo Manor had a couple things. In-Gimrii-D-K. Yep. And then O'Conquo is doing his normal late-season surge. Gunner Helm was involved for a stretch. I mean, take your shot. I'm going to say Chimray-D-K. He is fourth.

37:25 ↗

Perfect. Then I am going to say Oconquo. He's third. Oh, gosh, darn it. I'm changed to Ridley. Ridley's second. Okay. Number one, Alec Iommanner. Okay. All right. 17% target sharing the offense. Epic Iowa Manor. Yep. Jacksonville minus 12 and a half over under 47 and a half. A win clinches the south. They need the win. They won seven in a row. They'll get the win. They're at home and they're facing Tennessee. Who has been putting up more of a fight. Tony Pollard's been better. Cam Ward's been better. Shout out to Chimray DK for doing literally the most you can do on this offense, basically, and in the special teams. So, yeah, I think there's a lot to be excited for there. Yeah, for the future. What order would you put the Jaguars wide receivers as far as starts this week? Well, I got it wrong last week. I thought Jacoby Myers would be able to step up, and it was Parker Washington again.

38:24 ↗

I'd probably just do the same order I did last week. I'd probably go Jacobi Parker BTJ. Man, I feel like I'm putting Parker Washington number one. He's just been so daggum good so often, especially since their by week when they came out and they've really threw this stretch. Like, you know, they've won seven games in a row. His last eight games, Parker Washington's on pace for 1,000 yards, 76 receptions. He's been kind of the wide receiver one for them. It's crazy. I feel like he's the situation where if you look at him too closely and you trust him too much, that's when you'll be let down. But I'm just so, so interested in what the off season looks like for Jacksonville's offense. And it might depend a little bit on how far they go in the playoffs. BTJ has the talent where, look, if you have a couple games in the playoffs where BTJ has big games, all of a sudden that alpha is more secure and they try to get it back into it.

39:17 ↗

Tony Pollard, he needs 66 rushing yards for $250,000. Tough matchup to get it. Not much else to play for him. Yeah, but I bet they try and get it for him. Yeah, it is definitely one of those situations where you don't need the win. Those are the type of teams where those financial bonuses matter. So they'll definitely give him the work required to get there, but he'll have to be special against Jacksonville. Indianapolis at 8 and 8 taking on the Houston Texans at 11 and 5 of Houston wins and Jacksonville loses the aforementioned game. Houston would win the AFC South after an 0 and 3 start to the season. They can end up as high as the number 3 seed and as low as number 7, but they're likely the 5 seed in this one. They've won eight games in a row. Their defense is impenetrable. I don't think I've used that word before to describe a defense, but it seems right. I don't know. They give up 12 points to the quarterback.

40:15 ↗

That's true. They do. Indianapolis will be starting Riley Leonard to get a look at him before the season ends. Eight and eight, Indianapolis. There is a, there is a part of me that wants to see Riley Leonard come out against season, Texans and just dominate. Because of the, you got pushed aside for Philip Rivers, you had your chance was there and they were like, nope. We're not going to give it to you. Oh, I completely, I completely understand, but I have really bad news for you, Mike. I know it's not. It's going to go out there and show you exactly why they went to 44-year-old Phillip Rivers and everyone's going to go, yeah, yeah, I get it. We feel good about Nico, Houston defense, Jonathan Taylor, as starts in this game. I probably feel terrible about Pittman and Pearson Downs. Oh, yeah. I feel questionable about Tyler Warren.

41:05 ↗

It's weird how the season is gone. Obviously, the quarterback's been a problem, but like Colston Loveland or Tyler Warren. Right now, the momentum is with Mr. Loveland. Yeah. And we'll take a break. We'll talk some more matchups. All right. The New York Jets at 3 and 13 taken on the 11 and 5 Buffalo Bills in week 18. Buffalo minus 7 over unders 38 and a half. If you're playing against the New York Jets, you're loving every minute of it right now. It has been delightful for every offense that has played them. Breece Hall might not even play. I'm not sure you see the Buffalo Bill starters beyond a half. Please don't play, Breece. Yeah. Please don't play. Don't play. No. He went to the podium after the game last week, said his knee got banged up, but he's fine. He's not even going to get an MRI. I hope that was because he knew he wasn't going to play ever again for the Jets.

42:05 ↗

Please don't put yourself out there to get injured in this final week before your free agency hits. If I am his agent, I'm standing next to him for the week. I will let you shower without me outside of that. I am standing next to you saying you are not playing this week. You are not playing this week. Yeah. It's a fair point. Buffalo beat him 30 to 10 in the first matchup. The fact they're only seven point favorites right now tells me there's some expectation for starters to get. time off in this game. You know Josh Allen will get the start, even if it's like a snap, because isn't he on, he's still on that streak, right? I think he hasn't. No, I don't think so. Really? Am I wrong? I think he hasn't missed a game in, like, since his rookie season. Okay. I can be, no, you, I mean, I'm not positive. I think that's correct. But a seven point line, you would expect us to be double that if all their starters were expected to keep playing.

43:05 ↗

Oh, week 17 in 2022. He missed. I don't see a Josh Allen game line. I'll bet he started and took a knee or something in a week 17. Well, Kyle can look, though. Kyle can look it up. Yeah. So from a starter perspective, you know, this one's a nerve-wracking game. But it's one of those things where my point is if Josh Allen is active, this is a lot like Dak. I don't know how much Josh Allen you're going to get. Yeah. Oh, that was the Hamlin game. Ooh. Oh, okay. So that game did not happen. That game that did not exist. That one didn't finish. Right. Yeah. The Detroit Lions at 8 and 8 take on the Bears in week 18. Chicago minus 3 over under 50 and a half. The Bears are the number two seed with a win or a Philadelphia loss. The games that are played at the same time. I think Detroit, like Chicago minus three. I want to hit this one right now. Andy's almost upset of the week. Makes so much sense.

44:12 ↗

kneecap biting lions with a chance to just mess something up for a division mate to stay above 500 on the season right like that's a big marker you don't want to go under 500 um i think they didn't want to lose to max brosber well certainly certainly but uh i'm i'm taking detroit to win outright all right i would take chicago Caleb is 109 yards away from breaking the bear's passing yards record an astounding Where is it? They've never had a 4,000 yard pastor, right? And they will still. No, he's at 3730. I guess he could do it. That's 270 yards. You can do it, Caleb. What's wrong with that? How many times does he throw him for 270 this year? He threw 3.30 last week. It's not a lot. Two, three. Four times? Yeah, four. I see three.

45:08 ↗

Well, I want to use wrong. I see three times. Oh, four times. It was Andy. So it's possible. Colson Loveland's been crushing it. Like there are a lot of players you can play in this game. Amun Ra is a little bit banged up with the knee. But I mean, Gibbs and Jamo and, you know, the bear starters in Caleb and Luther Burden with targets last week. Colson Loveland. For sure. I mean, Burden. I want to see the practice reports because of that knee, but I really want to play Luther Burton right now. And what? It just had like some small remnants of the I love this game vibe going on. He's just been very. He's good. I don't know why because it's not he's a more physical archetype, but I see a lot of Percy Harvin in like the get the ball in his hands and watch him make guys look a little silly. That's the.

46:10 ↗

I can barely even utter my comp to him, but he reminds me of Antonio Brown. Whoa. Yeah. That's... I wouldn't dare argue with Mike this year. Yeah, I know. It could just be like... I did not know, but apparently Luther Burden is going to be the greatest one receiver. I mean, just like physically, they're like the same size. And Luther Burton is just the... He had to play last week where he... I came here for it was an out or a drag, but he's headed to the sideline, and he just, he's running full speed and then stops and accelerates immediately the other direction. The defender went flying. It's like his body control, what he can do with his speed is incredible. The Los Angeles Chargers are 11 and 5 taking on the 13 and 3 Denver Broncos, Denver minus 12 and a half against the backups. Over under is 37 and a half. They give the Chargers 12 and a half points. We're not going to see

47:12 ↗

Herbert. We probably won't see Hampton. A ton of Hampton, if any. They need him badly. They have a banged up Vidal. So like, Hampton for the playoffs is crucial. I genuinely think that there is only one charger you can realistically start. Who's that? Because Mike likes him. Dude. And if it wasn't for Mike's love, I would say you can't start him either. I was going to say, I don't think you can start Tray Lance. I would. like to start other players, but it's very fun. The Broncos are going to kill Tray Lanes. They're going to kill it. I would agree with that because their defense always, always, always shows up. Their defense is unbelievable. They also need to win the game. Oh, they do. They need to secure the number one seed. Trey Lans will have no fewer than three turnovers. They are playing for the by week. The Broncos are going to show up, but I do worry about the Broncos' offense because the Broncos' offense usually plays to the competition and...

48:06 ↗

I do not. I don't think that the Chargers offense is going to do anything against the Broncos. The Chargers are going to play backups and nobody's throughout the game. I think it'll be a really easy one for Denver. I completely agree with that. I'm just wondering how much fantasy goodness is going to be on. You're saying because the Chargers won't score. Exactly. Yes. The Chargers are going to do absolutely nothing. I'll take a half of Denver. Cardinals' offense did nothing last week. Yeah. I mean, that's where I'd go. RJ Harvey, I feel good about. Yes. Bo Nix, Cortland Sutton, I'm fine there. I probably don't mess around with too much more. I mean, Keenan Allen has some incentives he needs. I don't know if you saw that. Yeah, he needed, I mean, one of them is not happening. It's like two touchdowns for a big chunk of change. No, but he's got another million on the line with six catches and nine receiving yards. Does Keenan play? Oh, he's got to get that. If he has six catches and nine receiving yards, you get a million dollars. Incoming five screens for Keenan Allen. Yeah. Is this it for Keenan? Yeah.

49:05 ↗

probably like it because i know he's played the whole season with the chargers but if you remember he was a very late maybe one more year like he was like he's certainly not training camping next year right even if he's a charge is he just a one year yeah so i mean i he came into the league in two i think he said he wants to play one more year yeah he's he's played a long time um this one we don't have to spend a lot of time on guys But Kansas City takes on the Raiders, and this is one that they're going to be playing this game. Vegas minus Kansas City minus five and a half, overrunners 36 and a half. So not a lot of points for either one. You have maybe the final NFL game for Travis Kelsey, so I think that's a player you can play. Travis Kelsey would need 161 yards, trying to do quick math to get to 1,000. That would be more yards than the quarterback will throw. Yeah, that's impossible. That's impossible.

50:02 ↗

Gentie, would you play him? He's not been on the injury report once this year either. Yeah, I think Gentie I would play. I mean, he's still going to be very involved and the Kansas City Chief's defense. They couldn't do jack squat against the giants. Gentie, Kelsey, maybe Michael Mayer at tight end. I don't. That's your matchup. I don't understand. I don't know what to do with Gentie. He is a. Top-tier running back talent. You always play him because you always have the ability to, I mean, you said they couldn't do anything against the Giants. He was still top 24 running back. Really? Yeah. He got, oh, he slipped in. I mean, eight points? You can't, you can't selectively start. Eight points got you in the top 24 last week? It was a bad week. They lost Gino Smith, and he might not be starting. You just can't selectively start Asgengenti because the matchup is not the story for him.

50:52 ↗

You can see that because Houston was the worst possible matchup and he scored 31. Giants were a great matchup. He scored eight. You have to have them in there if you want explosive plays. Sure. But I'm not talking about that game anymore. All right. And you can't make it. The Cardinals, the worst franchise in the history of all sports at 3 and 13 with a horrible coach and management, horrible players and horrible everything. Who has a shot to come back next year. Horrible logo. Horrible everything. Yeah. Horrible garbage team. Sorry. I want table. I would too. I would love that. But they're going to bring back number two. Gross. The Rams are 11 and 5. That's who the Cardinals get to play. The Rams are six and a half point favorites. Does that line shock you? That line is 100% because they're not going to play their players. Ah. Yeah. That line, of course, it shocks me because that line would be 14 if they thought Matthew Stafford and Kyran and Puka and then we're going to play the whole game. Sean McVeigh.

51:52 ↗

I will say this. So San Francisco, that game against Seattle, they play on Saturday. Yep. So if Seattle wins that game, I'll bet you the line grows because the Rams can then elevate to the fifth seed with a win. I mean, they're going to win even with backups. Right. So they're not too concerned. But should Seattle win, then I'm more, you know, likely to play Stafford. That's the best point that you can make for this game. opposite happens if San Francisco wins and the Rams cannot improve their number five seed, I don't think they're going to play players. He said they were going to start them because we need to play. But he was angry right then. Yeah, he was angry. They've lost some games recently. They're not playing their best football going into the playoffs. And so they said they were going to start them. So you can, you know, you can listen to the trap or you can walk around the leaves on the ground.

52:49 ↗

Tray McBride is awesome. He's the one bright shining star along with Michael Wilson in the sea of vomit in Arizona. When you're out in the middle of the ocean, some stars are very bright. Yeah, that's true. Tray McBride. We got to juice these numbers. You've got to make sure no one catches your... He's at 119 receptions. Receiving record. I want them at 130. Well, it's not just... Here's the thing. On the other side of the field, Puka and Akua, I believe they are tied, or at least they were tied maybe going into last week for the league lead in receptions. Oh. There's only been like three. Is it 119? They're tied. There's only been, I think, three times in history where a tight end has led the NFL in receptions. So this will be like. What else are you playing for? Just. Yeah, no. Every play. And if Puka ends up getting another reception on the next drive, you go, we got to get two for McBride. Michael Wilson just for fun since week.

53:41 ↗

Unlimited tap passes. Seven games. Yes. He's averaging one yard a catch. But he has 27 catches. That'd be amazing. Michael Wilson's since week. Michael Wilson since week 11 on pace for 123 catches. 16141 yards. 12 touchdowns. 194 targets. And that is a, that's since week 11. Michael Jerry Bryce Wilson, which he is the arguably like the best waiver I pick up that you could have picked up for a week. Don't sway the vote. In great news. Is that one of our options? Great news from Michael Wilson. Marv is not playing. No, he's out. Okay. McBride, Michael Wilson. There you go. And then pay attention to that game on Saturday night and the motivation level for the Los Angeles Rams. The dolphins are seven to nine. That seems impressive to me considering how it's felt. Oh, yeah. New England's 13 and three. The Vegas line, New England minus 10 and a half. They need to win.

and they need Denver to lose to have the number one seed. It is possible. It is highly improbable. Yeah. Just confirming the... Do we have any comments, Kyle, on the New England strategy here in this game in terms of playing players? Vrable hasn't said anything yet. Okay. Yeah, I mean, I... And Broncos are playing in the afternoon. They're both in the afternoon. Yep. So the Pats will not know. Feel good about Trayvon, or Trayvion? May and A-chan? Yes. May is on, I mean, the thing is, is you're still technically playing for a bye week. I know, obviously, with the Chargers resting their players, you presume that the Broncos will win, but it's the NFL. Crazy things can happen. And for Mike Rable and for Drake May, they want to get him the MVP. Yes. You know what I mean? That matters to NFL teams, to players. So I'm confident with Drake May because I don't think they're going to.

have him go out there and play a quarter and sit. I mean, I wouldn't. I would go get him that. They probably get him the MVP. By the way, the Buffalo game update, Sean McDermott just came out and said that he is aware of the fact James Cook is in position to win the rushing title. And he said, quote, that's definitely on my mind. And it's between what, him and Jonathan Taylor. Does Jonathan Taylor play earlier? Earlier than James Cook and the bills? Taylor has 1559 rushing yards right now. The Buffalo is in the afternoon. The Colts are in the morning. He's got about a, he's at 1606, 1559 and 1606. So he's got a nice 50 point lead-ish. Right. So if John and the Taylor goes out, has 99, 100 yards, takes that lead, then James Cook will go and get that lead. Brable did come out and say, I did find one comment. Brooksie found it on the Patriots said probably everybody that's healthy will play.

So right now you just got to play with confidence with those guys, which does mean Ramandre is in play as well. Sure. But the dolphins have figured out how to stop the run pretty much all year. So I kind of like the big play potential of Trayvion more than I would like the other stuff for Romandre. I definitely agree. Trayvion is the better play between the two. And keep in mind, this is a divisional matchup. So that matters. They want to smash the dolphins. Speaking of getting smashed all year long, Washington's 4 and 12, and they take on the Philadelphia Eagles. Backups. Who are 11 and 5. The Vegas line, Philly minus 3.5, over under 38 and a half, not a high over under. Tanny McKee, Tanner McKee, Tank Bigsby, Jahan Dotson. These are your stars in this game. Revenge game for Dotson. Stars. Yeah, I mean, Tank Biggsby, the matchup is great. You're at home. You're talented.
