Week 15 Waivers + Full Stream Ahead, Good Bad Luck - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/14

Against Las Vegas. I mean, look at what Las Vegas did last week against Kansas City. Right. This game's at home for Cleveland. And I'd like to highlight, again, the Philadelphia Eagles, Washington, the Giants, Washington. That's a pretty solid run for three weeks in a row here. How many Darius Slate touchdowns in that run? Probably won. Probably won. I mean, legitimately, Taylor Heineke...

Lives to supply tip drills. And Heineke's banged up. Like there's no guarantee that Taylor Heineke is going to be good to go this week. Yeah, I agree. Let's talk about quarterback options. Full stream ahead. I just saw the full stream ahead graphic like I was watching it here on the YouTube stream. And Kirk Cousins, Derek Carr, and Baker Mayfield are on that train. Did we have an update of that yet? Cursed those guys. Kirk Couss has been.

What? He's a top 10 guy, right? Yeah, not when you look directly at him. He's like the sun. You need to let him illuminate from... Some Medusa situation. Yeah, just don't stare straight at him. No, you need a mirror. Then you can fight him off. All right, full stream ahead, quarterback streaming options. Look, if you're streaming in the fantasy playoffs, congrats on the rest of your roster, because you have assembled a juggernaut, and you need, you know, you need to pivot. So...

Might not be a lot of you, but I'll throw Taysam Hill out there against Tampa Bay. The running game is going to struggle. Tampa Bay does a great job of shutting that down. Taysam can get outside the pocket. He can play poorly and still give you a great fantasy week. Tassum is a career quarterback one. There you go. It's only six games, but that's literally never not been a quarterback one on a week. In week six, Jalen Hertz, 115 passing yards against Tampa Bay.

You're like, wow, Tampa Bay shut him down. Yeah, that's gross. He finishes the quarterback five. So that's the template. I'm going with Jimmy G. against Atlanta. The Atlanta matchup is phenomenal. Even last week with Cam Newton and PJ Walker taking turns at being terrible at quarterback, they combined for top 12 production, given up by Atlanta. Jimmy G's been pretty good lately. This is back-to-back weeks where he's thrown for

Basically 300 yards and two touchdowns in both weeks. I think it was like 296. And if you look at the weapons, since week nine, Brandon Ayuk's been a wide receiver one for fantasy. George Kittle is unbelievable. You could tap past your way with Debo Samuel to a hundred yard touchdown. So the matchup in Jimmy G. 99. Sure, 99 yard. Thank you. Let's be accurate. That would that would.

be impossible. Yeah, so I think Jimmy G is fine. Over the last six weeks, Atlanta's allowing the fourth most fancy points to quarterbacks. And I will go against the team that over the last six weeks allowing the most points to the quarterback position, I'm talking about the Minnesota Vikings, and I will be streaming Justin Fields, who it's not what you had hoped so far this season for Justin Fields, but he has looked competent. He is.

He's got some fast guys on the team. That is for sure that can help you pad the stats. And on top of that, he's running. Nine for 74 against the Green Bay Packers, a few weeks back over 100 yards on the ground against San Francisco, 45 on the ground against the Pittsburgh Steelers. If he's going to continue to do that, he gives you at least a safe baseline. And there is some upside because the matchup is so delightful. There were a few.

designed rollout runs for him in that Packers game where I was like, yes, where has this been? We only saw that with the one game when Nagy was on the COVID-I-R, but that was there. And it was really nice for his fantasy production, the confidence in being able to play him. Justin Fields still very fast. Yes, no doubt. And that can be a lot for fantasy. I will throw this out there before we close out the show.

Don't just play offense in the waiver wire. Oh, yeah. Play a little defense. Maybe you play defense with the defense because your opponent this week needs to pick up a great defense in Miami sitting out there and you've already felt good because you've got Arizona, but go play offense. Yeah, maybe Lamar Jackson is your opponent and Tayson is on the waiver wire. You don't need him, but.

You sure don't want to play against them if they lose Lamar Jackson, something like that. That's strategy. That's not Bush League. That's not doing nothing. That's playing the game of fantasy football. Go take players away from your opponents so you can win. Yeah, we call it the matumbo. No, no, no, no. The block. No, no, no, no. Yeah, you do have to say that if you take that player. Once again, we want to thank Trager grills. Grilling season never ends with Traeger. Keep that wood, fired flavor coming all year.
