moment

Cardboard Jay silently takes the Hitman's seat

The produced intro names Mike, but the live show calls itself the final one without the Hitman and later says Mike is not there. Direct video supplies the absent transcript fact: full-size cardboard Jay Griz occupies Mike's chair and microphone for the entire episode without acknowledgment, introduction, movement, or sound drop. Jason is separately named as Mike's Sunday substitute.

moment

Kyle and Owl put Deucers Alley into the Faceoff shame

Kyle the Borgogon accepts the Fantasy Faceoff despite being called a fragile competitor, admits his three screens already held DraftKings, and reveals a Deucers Alley lineup that overlaps heavily with the hosts. Jeremy is introduced as Al Borland, then as Owl who will share Kyle's punishment next week. Brooks is tasked with posting all three lineups, Kyle says he has never worked harder to beat someone, and the hosts openly want him in the shame.

moment

Andy's dynasty pick becomes a Truman Show trap

Andy owns the first-round pick of one of two terrible dynasty teams competing for the top selection. James Cook's 15-point game helps that bad roster and damages the pick, so Jason asks whether Andy is finished with the Truman Show experience; Andy says never, even if he is done for the moment.

moment

The Ministry admits the Dark Wizard is back

Deshaun Watson's return is handled entirely through the established Voldemort code. The hosts say the Ministry of Magic enjoyed peace, refused to believe the threat, and now has no recourse but to accept that the Dark Wizard has returned.

moment

Andy's Almost Upset button backs Miami

San Francisco is favored by four, the hosts ask for the button, and Andy predicts the 49ers defense will fail to stifle Miami's electricity. Direct video resolves the garbled transcript cue by displaying the full-screen green-and-cloudy ANDY'S ALMOST UPSET OF THE WEEK card.

moment

Pittman versus Campbell becomes an instant water bet

One host prefers Parris Campbell to Michael Pittman; the other calls that ridiculous, and they formalize the split as a water bet. Pittman's wide-receiver-one status becomes a meaningless robe and cape, the argument threatens to occupy the rest of the show, and both players are eventually predicted to miss six fantasy points.

moment

Jason's medium skills open the Great Sports Almanac

Asked for psychic help with Mike Evans, Jason predicts three catches for 53 yards and no touchdown, then gives Joshua Palmer four for 42. The precision is treated as a connection to the future and closes with the Great Sports Almanac image.

moment

The Wheel turns Andy into a full pineapple

Andy recounts removing Josh Jacobs with permission and losing by only three or four points. The published green Wheel of Shame spins over the desk, appears to flirt with Free Square and Minecraft, and settles on PINEAPPLE. Andy removes his jacket, pulls on the padded fruit body, adds the green leafy hat and dark sunglasses, and remains a full pineapple through the close while warning Deucers Alley about next week.

moment

Absent Mike still circles Adam Trautman

With Mike explicitly away, the hosts first joke that they cannot start Juwan Johnson, then learn Johnson did not practice and immediately predict that Mike would circle Adam Trautman instead.

moment

Brooks watches news, solves a flex, and posts the Faceoff

Brooks directly reports that no news is breaking and promises to keep watching. Later he confirms that he is typing the Jalen Warren-versus-Rachaad White question and leans Warren, then receives the closing Brooksie assignment to publish all three Fantasy Faceoff lineups for the Foot Clan.

summary

Episode notes

Complete published-video review shows only Andy and Jason as live hosts at the main desk. Mike is named in the standard introduction but repeatedly described as absent, while the full-size cardboard Jay Griz silently occupies Mike's left-side chair and microphone from the opening through the close without a name, sound drop, or bear reference. The standard WITH THE DUCERS card names and pictures Brooks/Judge Giamatti, Jeremy/Owl Borland, and Kyle/The Borgogon. Live cuts beneath the DUCERS ALLEY sign show those three credited humans together: Brooks at left, Kyle in the center, and Jeremy at right. Brooks directly answers two host questions and is tasked as Brooksie with posting all three Faceoff lineups; Jeremy is called both Al Borland and Owl, answers from the booth, and volunteers to share Kyle's next punishment; Kyle speaks throughout the challenge and admits his DraftKings tab occupied all three screens. Andy treats the effect of an opposing James Cook game on his acquired dynasty pick as a never-ending Truman Show. Deshaun Watson's return is narrated as Voldemort and the Dark Wizard returning while the Ministry of Magic can no longer deny him; video stays on ordinary host and matchup shots. A button produces the published green-and-cloudy ANDY'S ALMOST UPSET OF THE WEEK card for Miami over San Francisco. An unexpected Michael Pittman-versus-Paris Campbell argument becomes a water bet, a robe-and-cape image, and a threat to consume the rest of the show; none of those imagined props appears. Jason then uses alleged medium skills to predict Mike Evans at three catches for 53 yards and Joshua Palmer at four for 42, prompting a Great Sports Almanac callback; video remains at the desk. With Mike away, the hosts say they are not starting Juwan Johnson and that Mike would circle Adam Trautman, reinforcing his tight-end fixation. Fantasy Faceoff supplies the physical climax. Andy revisits removing Josh Jacobs with permission, losing by three or four points, and spins the visibly composited green Wheel of Shame. It settles on PINEAPPLE. Published video shows Andy remove his jacket, pull on a padded orange-yellow pineapple body, add the green leafy hat and dark sunglasses, and remain dressed that way through the close. He warns that Kyle and Owl may face the same process next week. Kyle's Deucers Alley lineup then overlaps heavily with the hosts, and Jason reacts as Kyle reveals George Kittle and Austin Ekeler; Andy notes that he is the one dressed as a pineapple. Kyle says he has never spent more time trying to beat someone, while the hosts want him in the shame. The close again confirms Jason will substitute for Mike on the Sunday livestream. No pineapple cake, upside-down message, dark soul, clouds, robe, cape, medium vision, sports almanac, or player tableau is actually shown beyond the real Wheel, costume, cardboard bear, live booth, and produced segment cards.

28:21 ↗

The Dolphins defense, specifically against wide receivers, has improved vastly over the course of the year. They're number six over the last six weeks, and they're going to come to play in this one. But Brandon Ayuk, the target chair, and without Debo in the field. I'm definitely starting Brandon Ayuk and George Kittle. He's my start of the week. I think both of those players are great. Brandon Ayuk, Garrett Wilson. Garrett Wilson is as close to a must start for me as it gets. Okay. Just making sure. just putting iuken line the chiefs bangles game also a fun one uh the chiefs are nine and two bangles are seven and four the draft king sports book line here kansas city minus one and a half on the road over under 52 and a half i want parts of this matchup i want all of them i want all of the pieces and parts uh the only place that i have some hesitation is like uh you know the aforementioned isaiah pacheco just because i think

29:20 ↗

There's just surprise elements in the running game. You just don't know what the game plan is going to be, but I'm okay flexing him. I'm just nervous about it. Yeah, Pacheco is a, I would say, a running back two or flex option this week. He's not a must start, but certainly he's been getting the work. He's talented enough. The Bengals haven't really been shutting down the run. And with this kind of a line where you've got a 52.5 point over under, it's hard to just not throw any piece that you have. at this, you know, at the snatchup. Yeah, Jared McKinnon did not practice with a hamstring injury. Is there a chance we see the call up of Melvin Gordon and the activity? Yes. I mean, that's where it's like, how much time would he get in this offense? I don't think he'll get a ton, but I do think if McKinnon is out, I would expect Gordon to be active, Ronald Jones to be active, and Pacheco to get the vast majority of the work. There's going to be a lot of...

30:13 ↗

A lot of passes in this game. Oh, yes. Remember, last year, week 17, this was the Joe Burrow wins everybody fancy championships when Cincinnati won the game 34 to 31. The AFC championship game, 27 to 24. There's going to be points scored in this game. Jamar Chase, that is a question mark in terms of how many reps. You know, the language he used about being back in this game, the way he talked about his injury. Look, adrenaline might push him through to playing three quarters of the game. He could play a quarter of the game. It is a risky, high reward, high risk play. It's the kind that, you know, if you put yourself in that position with Justin Jefferson, you probably making sure you start Justin Jefferson. Active equals a start for certain types of players. The question is, does Jamar Chase that type of player? Of course, Jamar Chase is that type of a player, but knowing that it could be limited, there is a...

31:09 ↗

there's a cutoff line. Like if you've got a Garrett Wilson who looks like just such a great start anyways, sure. Ayuk. How dare you? That one's really, really tough. I think I'd be playing Jamar Chase thing. I will go Jamar Chase over Ayuk, yeah. And I like Ayuk. I've risen on Jamar Chase and just knowing what this game is going to be, if you bench Jamar Chase and he goes out there and has three touchdowns, you're not going to live with yourself. No, no, you're not. And Joe Borough, 35 plus pass attempts in 9 of 11 games. So I hope this game lives up to expectations. The defenses are, you know, they're good defenses. But stifling these type of weapons is difficult. Hayden Hurst is my start of the week at tight end because, you know, nine targets last week, opportunities underneath. If the Chris Jones and company pass rush gets through, I think Hurst will be one of the, Hurst and Mixing will be those kind of release valves.

32:08 ↗

Um, on the other side, the wide receivers. What do you do with these? The weapons are all over the place for the chiefs. Put, put these wide outs in order for me, you know, just make it really easy. Sure. If I was to put them in order, uh, assuming Cadarius Tony is out. I think juju Smith-Schuster gets a little bit more involved in the snap count. I would go juju, Skymore, MVS, Justin Watson. Justin Watson's on the field a ton and he is a superstar, but he just doesn't get it done for fantasy for me or for you. Yeah, I mean, I'd be terrified to play juju this week. Oh, yeah. If that's the order, then you're literally saying don't start any chief's wide receiver. It is really funny. Patrick Mahomes is like the number one quarterback this week or the number two. He's just an unbelievably great play. And I'm not sure if I want to start a wide receiver. It could be absolutely anybody. I want to start a wide receiver named Travis Kelsey. Yeah.

33:07 ↗

Yeah, that's the plan. Play him. The Chargers are six and five. They take on the four and seven Las Vegas Raiders. Oh, man. We got some good football this week. This is three straight games. I want a lot of pieces in the line here, Las Vegas minus one. Really? The week started Chargers minus two and a half. Yeah, it's shifted that much. Wow. Do you think this is related to doubts about Josh Jacobs turning into optimism around him or? I have no idea. That's a strange line to me. The over under is 50 and a half. The Raiders have won a couple of games in a row in walk-off fashion. The Raiders have such consolidated weaponry right now. Yeah, it's beautiful. That it's super easy. Like you play Jacobs and Devante Adams and you can, those are your must starts. And then you can roll the dice with a Foster Moreau at Tide End or a Mack Hollins and you could end up with something or nothing. Yep. That's it. Check out.

34:06 ↗

Yeah, and it makes it, it makes it easy. Now, the Chargers, on the other hand, they do have Keenan Allen, who has made his return to the lineup. He's a great start. He is a phenomenal start in this game. He was utilized in, you know, 91% of routes run. So he's back to full strength. I would expect now, even another week back, he should be a great start in this game. Joshua Palmer, who I think has... You know, he disappoints when we expect him to do something more than he does, but he's a good play. You know, I would certainly start him over Mack Hollins on the other side in the same game. And, you know, with Mike Williams not participating in practice, Wednesday and Thursday, you expect him to be out. Probably should have been out these games anyways from the original injury, and he came back and reagravated it. So, honestly, this is a pretty consolidated offense on both sides.

35:04 ↗

You know, you want Echler, Keenan, Palmer. You want Carr, Jacobs, Adams. Compare the tight ends. Gerald Everett four catches last week. Foster Moreau got in the end zone. You know, he's good for 40 yards, as Mike would say. I would take Gerald Everett over Foster Murrow. He is still a more, you know, the chance to get over 40 yards, certainly higher with Gerald Everett. I also think the chance for a touchdown higher with Gerald Everett. Okay. Justin Herbert. Last week, first top five finish for him since week one against the Raiders. Why don't you play the Raiders this week, Mr. Herbert, and see how it goes. Probably going to be a very exciting game. The Sunday night football matchup is the Colts at 4, 7 and 1 against the 8 and 3 Dallas Cowboys. The Draft King Sportsbook line here, Dallas minus 10 and a half. The over under is 44. I don't know how, like if you play this game a thousand times. Yeah, how do the Colts win? How does Matt Ryan...

36:03 ↗

Do anything with the pass rush of the Dallas Cowboys. This is just a mismatch on every level. Like, I will take Dallas in the point. or minus the points. Yeah, it is really, really tough. The only way that the Colts can stay in this game and do something special is if Jonathan Taylor has an otherworldly performance. If he's able to have a running back one, like the running back one week where he runs for 165 and two touchdowns, stays in the game and opens things up for Matt Ryan. But I don't anticipate. He's not going to do it. Exactly. I don't anticipate this being the game, the matchup where he's going to have the ability to do that. Their offensive line.

36:41 ↗

for the Colts has just been a real disappointment this year. And while Jonathan Taylor looks back, he looks healthy. He had some, you know, some nice chunk plays last week. And obviously you're going to continue starting Jonathan Taylor. This just doesn't appear to be the big blow-up week against a really good front from the Cowboys. I agree. And unfortunately, that means I don't have confidence in any of the other weapons on the offensive side for the Colts. I don't, I'm not chasing Michael Pittman. Like there was a one-off last week where, you know, we got into the end zone. But, you know, you had a quarterback that threw for 19 yards in the first half. You could still start Pittman. 11 targets last week, seven receptions. I know, you know, obviously you would have been more disappointed without the touchdown. But I do think.

37:24 ↗

If they're down a ton, you're going to have to throw the ball. And he's the main possession guy. I guess we just disagree there. I have PTSD from seeing the Vikings offense. They were down the whole game. Right. Right. And Adam Thielen, useless. Justin Jefferson, useless. Michael Pittman is, he's a risky business, in my opinion. And the players that are going to benefit from that pass rush or Paris Campbell. Like, I play Campbell over Michael Pittman. Oh, that's ridiculous. We should water bet. Yes. I mean, and by ridiculous, do you mean like Paris Campbell who had like outscored him every single week for a long period of time? I mean ridiculous. Why is that ridiculous? Why is that ridiculous? Because Michael Pittman's coming off of 11 targets. What Paris Campbell do this last week? Oh, so you just live in one week boxes? You don't look at the bigger context of the season. Whatever happened last week is going to happen this week. The wide receiver one for this team is clearly Michael Pittman, not Paris Campbell. I mean, that's like, is that really a?

38:22 ↗

strong debate? Why does that sentence matter in this debate? You just said I can't look at a week. I should look at the bigger picture and I'm looking at the biggest picture of who's the wide receiver one for this team on the season. That sentence doesn't matter. What matters is the output, the fantasy output. Which is also Michael Pittman. When you go and you input stats on your fantasy lineup, do you look at the depth chart or do you look at the fantasy points? I don't care if Michael Pittman is wearing a robe and a cape and walked on the field as the greatest wide receiver in town. I care about who gets more targets in this game. Right. And it's going to be Paris Campbell. Pitman. Waterbet. Michael Pittman. Water bet. Oh, for sure. Waterbed.

39:05 ↗

All right. Well, that's a debate I didn't see coming in the middle of the Indianapolis matchup. Yeah. Michael Pittman is the wider receiver 17 on the season. It's been pretty good. They haven't had a buy week. We had a conversation about this. Well, okay. Paris Campbell, same team, same no buy week, wide receiver 41. Yeah, I get it. Okay. All right. Yeah. Just one. I'm fully aware. All right. Yeah. Good luck with the pass rush and getting the ball to Michael Pittman. Oh, he doesn't go far. No, I do know that, but Campbell goes less far. Are we talking about this the rest of the show? I think so. I think we've got to have 20 minutes on Paris Campbell. Paris versus Pittman. You quickly went to that 17 finish. He does not feel like the wide receiver 17. Regardless of Paris Campbell, Michael Pittman does not feel like the wide receiver 17 this year. Right, but he is. So feelings can mislead you.

39:57 ↗

He isn't by points per game at all. So feelings also matter if it's points per game. Okay. You agree with that, right? Yes, absolutely. So points per game, he's not. Points per game is not the wide receiver 17. Okay. Um, rest of the show is Pittman v. Paris Campbell. Neither player will score six fantasy points in this game. So you're basically not playing either one. Correct. I'm not playing either one. Okay. No. which is the real, real important piece. Dak Prescott and Company, number one in points scored since week seven, third in total yards per game. The Colts defense has been really, really good in the last four weeks, and it really, really isn't going to matter if they turn the ball over twice, short fields, defensive pressure, Zeke and Pollard are in play. Both are in play. Who do you like better? I think I like Pollard better, but I'm fine with both.

40:54 ↗

Okay. I still, I'm trying to think about what happens with this offense in the second half of a game. They're up three scores. You know, how do they play that out? And I think Pollard gets the work. I don't think they put more pressure on that knee, you know, if they don't have to for Ezekiel Elliott. So there you go. Dalton Schultz, five receptions per game since his return. So Monday night football, here we go. The Saints are four and eight. They take on the five and six Buccaneers. Buccaneers trying to become division leaders with at least a 500 record. And they should. The Drafking Sportsbook line here, Tampa Bay, minus four over under 40 and a half. This is not one of those bonanza games. It isn't. There are plenty of fantasy assets that you have question marks and want to start. Chris Godwin is auto-locked.

41:45 ↗

in. He's just getting so many targets in any kind of PPR format. He's a guaranteed play. And I would say Chris Olave is also an auto lock on. He's been great. We just talked yesterday on Never Not Working about the fact that some of these rookie wide receivers should really take even a bigger step forward. And the targets per route run for Chris Olave insinuate that he would be one of the strongest bets to do so. So those two guys are in. Alvin Kamara, you're not going to. bench, even though he's been disappointing and the Buccaneers are a good defense. I think one of the big question marks is the running back situation for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. You have Rashad White, who has looked really good. He got the start before Leonard Fortinette went down to injury, but then he was injured and he got the benefit of that injury. Then he was out of game. He got the benefit of that injury. Well, now it looks like, you know, Fournette's practicing in full. He's going to be back. So are you confident?

42:42 ↗

actually starting with Shad White and your fantasy team, or are you worried, you know, he's going to get 12, 13 carries, a couple of yards, no touchdowns, not really in the passing game that much because Fournettes there, you know, how are you starting those running backs? Cautiously. I mean, I think I play White over Fournette, and I think I play White based on the options I have. I don't think he's a must start. I think he's a flex category type of player. You know, when I think of Rashad White versus like Jalen Warren, like of Warren's alone in the backfield, I'm going to play Jailen Warren. Is that a situation that you agree with? That is a situation I agree with. And I can't imagine. Brooks, is that the situation you're facing? I was just typing that out. Yes, sir. What is so you, and what are you doing? I'm leaning towards Warren this moment. Yeah. It does, you know, the Saints defense, divisional matchup.

43:36 ↗

I'm not going to go almost upset here, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Saints got it done. The Buccaneers, you have to almost, this is like the whiteboard where you use the bad marker. And you're trying to erase it, but you still see what you had written. And we're all unable to erase the marks of last year and the year before for the Tampa Bay offense. Realistically, when push comes to shove this year, they're not getting it done. scored? Are they the lowest in the division? I will look that up. I think that they are. I mean, this is not an offense that has been, you know, you have the bin not break defenses. This has been the like inverse on the offensive side where you move, don't score. Move don't score. Your drives are very meticulous. So so much has to go right over the course of a long drive where eventually it goes wrong. Bend and break.

44:37 ↗

Yeah. Yeah, they have the low, they have 30 points. This is the biggest stateline, the headline of what's going on with this team. The Falcons have 72 more points scored on this season. The Panthers have 30 more points scored on the season. That's insane because this is a bad division with bad offenses and the Buccaneers are the worst of them. And I guess to be fair, the Panthers and Saints have one extra game, but that's still going to be more per game. Talk to me about Mike Evans because I really need mental help here. Can you use your medium skills and tell me if he can get in the end zone? It's not going to be a good game. I mean, Marshala Lattermore is going to be back. Is he? He was a limited participant in practice Thursday. That is the latest I've seen. Do you have information newer than me? All I know is that you said he was limited. Yeah. Sunday? Unlimited.

45:34 ↗

There's nothing this man likes more than punking Mike Evans. So do you bench Mike Evans? If Mike Evans doesn't score a touchdown, you're going to be disappointed. And you just said Mike Evans. And he hasn't scored a touchdown in a really long time. Okay, let me give you some gross things. And I told you, I guarantee he would if Lattimore wasn't out there and I think he's out there. Okay. You're going to give me some gross options? Some gross options. Let's just go back to the standard of IUC. Let's begin there. Okay. I would start I yuk over Mike Evans easily. Go on.

46:04 ↗

Zay Jones. The Mr. Spot start at Detroit. Full PPR? Full PPR. Yeah. Zay. Give me Zay. Gross. George Pickens at Atlanta. I think you're in the same boat with the touchdown situation there. I'll go with the Mike Evans, the proven talent. Okay. And Terry McLaren, New York Giants. Oh, gosh. That's a good one. That's a really good one. They're kind of similar situations, but one guy's been getting it done. What's that matchup again? McLaren against the Giants. What's the overrunner in that game? About the same. It was 40 and a half for a while. Yeah, same exact overrunner. They're in New York, right? That is correct. I'll take the home guy. I'll take Evans at home. Okay. All right. That does that help you at all? Not really. Not emotionally. If I could see the full future and give you the stat line. Oh, that would very much help. Yeah. Then I could. Three for 53. I could still get it wrong. Three for 53. Three for 53. No touch. No touch. I just connected. So it's.

47:04 ↗

I just got a little bit of a message. So that's what, 6.8 fantasy points, half PPR scoring? Yeah. Oh, man. Three for 53 on seven targets. I should have started Devon Singleton. Which you would not have said until the very end was scored that touchdown. I know. All right. Well, okay, here's a legitimate question. This is my question. Mike Evans or Joshua Palmer? Mike Evans. Remember that matchup? How juicy? Yeah, DeAndre Carter 10 targets last week. Are you, Kyle? You just told me he's going to have like 6.8 fantasy points. And so you think Palmer's less? Palmer's 4 for 42, no touchdowns. Oh, man. That's a bad line. Yeah. It's not looking good for my week for fantasy. Getting the great sports almanac out here for you. We didn't talk about the Saints office, did we?

48:00 ↗

We mentioned that Alvin Camara is someone you start against the tough Tampa Bay Buccaneers run defense. And OLAVe, but then beyond that. I mean, yeah, we talked about the two that you're going to start. Mike's not here, so we're not starting Juan Johnson. Although that's not fair because Juan Johnson, it is a good matchup. Where you've beaten the Buccaneers, they haven't been great against tight ends. Juan Johnson has gotten it done more often than not over the last month. I do think if you have been someone starting Juan Johnson, like in a dynasty league, This is a matchup that's better for him. But Taysam Hills, the biggest question mark, this, I'm benching him. I'm just, I'm not playing that game anymore. Yeah, John Johnson didn't even practice. Oh, all right. Well, that makes it far easier to bench him. Yeah. So this is where Mike would circle to Adam Troutman. That's what Mike would be doing right now. For sure.

48:53 ↗

All right, the rankings and starts it tool on the website, the fantasy footballers.com. A couple news updates. Doug Peterson did say that Travis E.T.N. is quote, good to go Sunday against the Lions. And David and Joker didn't practice again today. I wouldn't expect to see him out there on the field. It's time. It is time. Fantasy face off, presented by Draft Kings. I mean, I don't even see why we need to focus on last week in any capacity. Well, let's just get last week over with, because I am far more excited about this week. Will of shame. This week feels the most shameful of all because, like, I'm ashamed of what happened. Yeah. And if you didn't hear it on Monday, I took Josh Jacobs out of my lineup with the permission of my two cohorts due to the ankle injury that cropped up on Friday. And after I was insulted for the idea of starting Josh Jacobs.

50:02 ↗

on this very show, in particular by Mike. More for less, I believe it was his word. More for less was his quote. And then lost by three or four points. Man, you would have crushed us with Jacobs. I would have crushed that wheel. Yeah, let's spin it. Looks like Free Square. I'm off the hook. Oh, that's funny. I read it different. Minecraft. Oh, it looks like pineapple. What in the world is pineapple? I think you're going to become a... pineapple if i had to guess what do i need to do here do i need to take off some clothing yeah uh it looks like maybe maybe ditch the jacket we've got to wear a whole pineapple here oh this is going to look real real good so uh make sure that's right side up not upside down or you're going to send some mixed messages all right pineapple suit going on andy is now a full pineapple probably needs a pineapple hat yep i knew that was coming

50:57 ↗

Okay, YouTube.com slash the fantasy footballers if you want to see Andy the shame. And this is just an example. What's going on now of what's about to happen in Deucer's Alley next week with Kyle the Borgogun and Owl has graciously said that if Kyle loses, Owl will be shamed as well. They say they're not worried. But let's kick it off with the Deucer's Alley. Saying your draft king's lineup, who you got at quarterback? Let's go. Let's go. The challenge. Let's begin. At quarterback, I have Joseph Burrow at 6,900 pass rate king. Oh, that makes sense. I have Joseph Burrow as well in a great match up against Kansas City, 6,900. Andy? Well, this is good because I like to set myself up for upside downside. Uh-huh, uh-huh.

51:46 ↗

I have Patrick Mahomes. Oh, the other side of the field going paying up. I paid up for Patrick Mahomes, 8300. The premium is there. I can guarantee 300. I can guarantee two. And hopefully I get like four in this matchup. Yeah, the upside down side. Pineapple cake. Upside down pineapple cake. That's what you got there, Al? Yep. All right, running backs. Who's your starting two running backs? I got David Montgomery, who's in a great matchup against Green Bay at home, 6,200. And then Jalen Warren at 4,900. I think he's the free square this week. Oh, okay. Jalen Warren and you're, you're, come on, Najee. Get healthy to play. There's no pivots on this show unless you take Josh Jacobs out with permission. I am going to learn from Andy's mistakes at running back. I'm going to put Josh Jacobs in my lineup.

52:37 ↗

I do have $100 left over. So my pivot, should he not play, it's going to be one. Nicholas Chubb, both great running backs. My second running back is Aaron Jones at a very nice 6,900 against Chicago. So we've got running backs on opposite sides of the field there. With Joseph Fields back, I'm very happy I've got Aaron Jones. My starting two running backs here, Austin Echler at 8,500. Austin Echler in my lineup, Jalen Warren. Jalen Warren at 4,900. Oh, you did a showtime. Running back. Jalen Warren in my lineup. Unbelievable. That's right. Jailen Warren. I feel so alone. I thought we were in this together. And now I'm realizing I feel like I've been hoodwinked here. All right. Wide receivers, Kyle.

All right, I've got the sun god at 7,100 Monra against Jacksonville. Garrett Wilson, who I assume everyone has. He's one of the free squares this week of 5,300. And then my cheap wide receiver this week is Sky Moore at 3,100. Wow. Kyle. I think we all have those three players. Wait, you have those three players? I do. I do too. Ammon Rae St. Brown, Garrett Wilson, and Sky Moore. Yeah, I mean, I have Sky and my flex technically. Okay. All right. Those are my three wide receivers. Yeah. Wow. I did not see that one coming from Kyle. Yeah. Sounds pretty brilliant. Wait, so we have Joe Burrow, Ammon Ross St. Brown, Garrett Wilson, Skymore all together so far, Kyle. Okay. Yeah. I don't have the Burrow part. I have Patrick. So who's your other wide receiver? My other wide receiver is T. Higgins at 7200. T. Higgins in that matchup with Patrick Mahomes. And then I might as well just finish the lineup out. My defense.

is the Pittsburgh Steelers at 2,600. And my tight end is actually Isaiah likely this week. Isaiah likely, 2,800 practicing in full. If he doesn't play, it's a straight pivot to Josh Oliver, who had six targets for this offense. The second tight end for Baltimore, I think will be very important this week. It's the one area you can beat Denver. I love the look on Kyle's face as he. receives this information. Kyle, who are your final three players? I feel great. I have the Steelers defense as well. Oh, boy. And then I ponied up at the end. A tight end, I have George Kittle. Yeah. Oh, no. Whose line is 41 and a half. And we took the over in the DFS pass. I knew you had some money left. And then at Flex, I have a guy named Austin Echler. Yeah. Well, that means we both have Mr. Echler. Yeah. Jason's feeling. Oh, no. Who's your final three? I'm the one dressed up as a pineapple. Yeah.
