55:56 ↗

Darrell Henderson limited again. You saw precedent that they're willing to activate and not use Darrell Henderson. They promoted Sergeant in the middle of the week. They waited until game day last week. I don't know what you can read into that. Maybe they just want them more prepped. In case, you know, later decision on Henderson, but. Just in case. And then you have. If Henderson's active, what do you do? I'm playing Sony, Michelle. Yeah. Either way. Are you benching Henderson if he's active? I don't.

56:27 ↗

think so. I think he's been practicing this week, and if he is active, I'd probably be willing to play both of them. But Henderson would be more of the who else is on my line. I would play him over in Adrian Peterson, but I would not play him over a Jamal Williams. Or a James Connor. Oh, no. James Connor, you just have to stay in the flames with James Connor. What about Chase Edmonds? He has not been activated yet. He can practice. Got to be activated by Saturday, but he could be back out there.

56:55 ↗

Would you play Daryl Henderson or the newly activated Chase Edmonds? I would go with Henderson there. I'm Edmonds on that one, Mike. What would you do? Eileen Henderson. Interesting. All right. Matthew Stafford, Kyla Murray, both in your lineup. Cardinals' defense, though more vulnerable against the run. They've been a good secondary. They're at home. We've seen Stafford have a couple of these games where he, a couple of early turnovers, opportunistic defenses, less confidence with him this week, I assume.

57:26 ↗

Obviously, then Kyler. Even in that terrible game, he was still 280 and 2 against Arizona in week four. So Stafford is still in play. Yeah, Cup is in. The real question becomes Van Jefferson O'Dell Beckham. What do you do with those guys? How confident? Which one would you pick? I would personally pick Van Jefferson in this specific matchup. But, I mean, there's an argument to be made for.

57:50 ↗

Either or neither. We have them ranked very closely as a group, 27 and 30 on the week. Jefferson's been number nine and number 20 the last two weeks. Beckham has been, let's see here, 10 and 29. So I think both are in play. I think both are very high upside. Yes. Both of them are very high variance players of the floor is very far away from the ceiling.

58:21 ↗

DeAndre Hopkins, Zach Ertz. Yep. But you don't mess around with A.J. Green, Christian Kirk and Rondale Moore. Correct. Okay. Rankings, all of them. The Sartsit tool, a bunch of other resources, including the streamfinder tool, which I highly recommend you using before the playoffs. You can find them at the Fantasy Footballers.com. We did get some injury update news. Kevin Coleman is officially out for week 14 against the Saints. So Ty Johnson should see an uptick and work. Is that...

58:50 ↗

Is Austin Walter? I mean, the matchup is do-do, but... I don't think he's really in play. Okay. By the way, I was wrong earlier. There is a new report. Davis Mills will start, and Tyrod Taylor, despite practicing... What did I just hear? He's getting the wheel prep. Oh, he's mad now that I mention it because he was just going to cut that. Yeah. The wheel has to get... It's okay. The wheel has to warm up. People know that. It's a big wheel. You oil it.

59:20 ↗

It's all lubed up now. It's all lubed up. It's a very sophisticated machine. It's usually on my pre-show checklist. I missed it today. I apologize. But you just decided right in the middle of the show, you're going to do it. I mean, it does it. Didn't think it was going to come through. You thought you were safe? Oh, who's got the shame now? It's not Mike. Yes, it is. Yes, it is. He's got to spin the wheel, and he's got to do it right now. Fantasy Face Off, presented by Draft Kings. Last week, Jason ran away with it. Huge week.

59:57 ↗

fantasy points, and then I just dominated Mike. I mean, it was a thrashing 128.1-2 to 127.26. And Mike, you've got to be embarrassed. You were a off-sides penalty away from... Shame? Shame. Shame. Speaking of shame, you're ready to spin the wheel? I am. Wheel of shame.

60:31 ↗

All right, let's give it a spin. I'm so excited. Oh, because I know what's going to happen. Park Ranger. Oh, yeah. Blue man group. Fantastic. All right.

60:46 ↗

What is a Blue Man? I mean, I know what the Blue Man Group is. Yeah, you're now a member of the Blue Man Group. Does he get drums? You've got to do a little, you got to put on some clothes. I mean. Okay. Well, this will take, this will take a second. Yeah, I mean, we can walk you through it. Fantastic. We'll describe the process. I mean, you've seen the Blue Man Group before. Oh, it's a sensational show. And you haven't you always wanted to be a member? Well, are they aliens?

61:09 ↗

The blue, I think there's stick is there supposed to be blue aliens. They're like from another planet. What size is this thing? Um, so he's putting on a, it's an Excel. We wanted to make sure you could get into it. A shirt right now. Looks like a, oh, that is a turtle neck. That's not going to be comfortable in here at all. The blue man group, they wear the turtle neck. The black turtle neck. Hello, everybody. No, I mean, you got a, there you go. Okay. Okay. I feel like Steve Jobs right now. You actually look very nice. Yeah. Let's change that.

61:34 ↗

It's time to progress to the more important piece. Okay. Yes. Okay. That's backwards. Oh, that's backwards. The zipper. Al, you can come in here and help him. You might have thought that it was not backwards because there's no eye holes. Oh, you took the eye holes away? So you have a blue. All right. Zip me up. You have a blue face. Can you see anything through that? Sort of. Oh, this is fantastic. Oh, you look so stupid.

62:03 ↗

We don't even know it's you. It might not be Mike. You don't need to put the gloves on. This is the worst audio on the podcast in quite some time. But the good news is that that will force people to go to the better platform. Why can't use the glove if I'm going to use my computer. So I'll use one glove. Oh my goodness. Wow. It actually looks fantastic. You look like you're a real member. Oh. How does it feel to not be able to see during this segment? I know from last week it wasn't my favorite.

62:31 ↗

Hold on. Let me get real close to that. For the record, I voted for eyes, but Jason is the winner, so he made the decision. Okay, I think I can handle it. If I make the text like Jason Moore sized. Oh, yeah. And I wasn't physically shaming you. I was shaming your eyes. Gotcha. Look, I've got a mask on. I can do whatever I want. Oh, man. All right, we do have lineups to share with you for this week. You look outstanding. I'm still a little disappointed you don't have.

62:58 ↗

the other glove on. I do think you need to find a way. Okay. Well, I'll get the lineup ready. Yeah. And then I'll get the glove on. Thank you. Thank you. All right. I'll kick us off here at the quarterback position. I'm going to go with the quarterback that I last selected when I got shamed. It did not work out for me at all. And I'm going back to the well. I saved money. I'm going with Cameron Newton.

63:21 ↗

Oh, wonderful. I know. I knew that would make you guys happy, which is always off to a bad start. So Cam Newton, 5400. I don't think it's terrible. Against Atlanta, I believe in my stream of the week. I told you guys, I think I went some different directions than you will this week. We'll find out I spent up Patrick Mahomes, 8,000 in my lineup at home against Las Vegas. I'm not missing that. Yeah. My initial lineup did have him in. But I'd.

63:48 ↗

I got to stretch the mask down so I can see. Oh, this is wonderful. YouTube.com slash the fantasy footballers. Oh, you look wonderful. I got to take a picture. So I don't have my salaries in front of me with this particular list. So that's on you guys because I can't use my computer anymore. But I went to Tysm Hill. I paid down. I'll take the matchup against the Jets. 5600.

64:08 ↗

Okay. He was my original. I also don't have my matchups. He was my original quarterback, but I didn't want to stack him necessarily with my running back one. Okay. My running back one is Alvin Camara. He is as locked into a lineup as any player has been all season against the Jets. I don't see how he does not get in the end zone and have a massive game. My running back two, and I paid up at 7,900 for Camara. And my running back two is.

64:36 ↗

A still lower priced $6,000 for Antonio Gibson. The matchup is not as great against Dallas, but he's just been getting so much work. So Camara and Gibson. There's a lot of, there's a lot of heat going on in this Mac. How's your breath? I'm not, it's not the breath I'm worried about. It's like,

64:55 ↗

I think my mustache is just coated with snot now. Oh, fantasticly gross. You look so stupid. The nose is getting real drippy. All right. Well, we'll get through this. My running backs, neither of yours, Jason. Sequin Barclay for 6,000, Giovante Williams for 5,900. And I split both of your running backs. I did stack Tatea Hill with Alvin Kamara because I ain't scared of that stack. And then Giovante Williams was just, he was too cheap.

65:22 ↗

My original lineup was year three to start Mike. So hopefully we've got some differences to go. It's a good lineup. At wide receiver, I have C.D. Lamb, who's just been on fire, paid up for 7200 for him to pair with.

65:36 ↗

Amari Cooper. I'm going with the, I'm going, I'm surprised I didn't go deck just to get the massive stack. But I believe in the Dallas passing game, the Washington defense has been better, but at 5,900, he's mispriced. So I've got the Dallas, I mean, that's going to be an important game. Did you give out all three of yours? No, and Brashad Perryman is my third at 3,000. Okay.

66:00 ↗

Okay. I went with Stefan Diggs at 8100 against Tampa Bay. Jameson Crowder at 4,700 at home. Crowder. Against the Saints. And I did go with the 3,400 Jalen Guyton. Oh, okay. You're taking the shots? I'm taking the shot. I'm taking the slot machine, Mr. Hunter Renfro, who has just been unstoppable lately. I also have Amari Cooper. And then I saved a little bit money. I'm going with DeAndre Carter from Washington, who actually has.

66:28 ↗

been better than most people realize. I have played him a couple times in DFS to great effect. Tight end, flex, and defense. Tight end is where I spent up. Travis Kelsey always kills the Raiders. So I've got the number one tight end on the week. Jeff Wilson. My name is Jeff. At 4,400 is my flex option. And I'm going with the Panthers D against the Atlanta Falcons for 2,800. Well, I.

66:54 ↗

Have Kelsey. Kelsey 7400, the stack with Mahomes, obviously. That was my powerhouse. Laquan Treadwell at 3,400 is my bargain. The Jacksonville wide receiver won. Yeah, my bargain pick up at wide receiver. And then I did spend a little bit more than you, Jason. I took the Seattle defense at 3,100 against Houston. Well, same zies. Travis Kelsey will be on my roster. Oh, my goodness. James and Crowder on my roster. Oh, my gosh.

67:24 ↗

The Seattle Seahawks also on my roster. Well, it's going to be very tight here, but I expect Jason to be, yeah, I'm going to make a prediction. Jason's going to be wearing the shame. Sure. I will, I will make a confession as you make a prediction. I made a change about 10 minutes ago. Originally, I had Mike Evans and Laquan Treadwell as my two. And when I saw that Bershad Perriman saved me money, I made that switch. And then I was looking and I could go to.

67:53 ↗

CD Lamb over Mike Evans. I like that pair more. Did not remember that I had a Murray Kubar. So, whoops, I agree with your prediction, Andy. Well, last second, changes don't always work out the best.
