I just I don't don't get it. 109 00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:03.480 Presno, Snight won a game this year when their quarterback 110 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:06.160 for twenty five yards, and I said, that's worse than 111 00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:06.560 I would be. 112 00:06:07.079 --> 00:06:11.800 You know, it is just yeah, listen, it's the way ball. 113 00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:15.040 The ball bounces for a lot of people in high 114 00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:19.040 stakes fantasy football. We're in to the championship round of 115 00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:21.399 the kffs C of the FFPC, and we're going to 116 00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:23.600 try to do our best to help you out tonight. 117 00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:25.240 I mentioned some of the things that we're going to 118 00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:28.439 talk about early on in the in the program tonight, 119 00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:31.199 I also want to get to with Craig Glundowski, the 120 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:35.040 fifteenth place team owner in the FFPC main event. Let's 121 00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:37.800 get into Jackson Dart. Let's get into Ironde Gadzt and 122 00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:41.319 Teo McMillan, all these tough lineup decisions that people are 123 00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:44.279 facing for a million dollar grand prize. We'll also get 124 00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.959 into DeAndre Swift Tyler and Orange Jalen Hurts and so 125 00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:50.600 much more. Leading things off to night Farrell, Let's crank 126 00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:53.800 it up with one Harold fan It. Oh yeah, this 127 00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:57.839 is very interesting. So he is listed as questionable for 128 00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:00.800 the Steelers game this weekend after he was added to 129 00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:04.759 the injury report on Friday. It is a soft tissue 130 00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:08.360 injury that caused him to be added to the injury report. 131 00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:11.759 Fanin is, I mean, like, here's the thing, It's a 132 00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:15.399 not even a midweek it's an end of week injury ad. 133 00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:18.040 I think he is on the wrong side of questionable 134 00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:18.519 right now. 135 00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:18.920 Farrell. 136 00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:21.959 I would be looking at it from the standpoint if 137 00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:24.000 you do have Harold Fann and you were counting on 138 00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:28.439 him this week, you have to make other lineup changes. 139 00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:31.560 You have to make other lineup plans. If you are 140 00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:35.079 playing in the KFFFC or the FFPC, in those leagues 141 00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:38.759 that still have waivers open on Saturday night slash Sunday morning, 142 00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:42.360 make sure you're picking up somebody, anybody at tight end, 143 00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:44.800 just so you don't have to be afforded to take 144 00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:48.600 that zero. I am very very bearish on Harold Fann 145 00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:51.879 and playing this week. Farrel I am I chicken little? 146 00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:54.839 Is the sky falling on me right now? Or do 147 00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:56.519 you agree with me that we're not going to see 148 00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:57.800 Harold fan in week seventeen? 149 00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:00.800 Well, I can't go either way. Bulky, You don't. You 150 00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:03.519 don't live in fear. So there must be some insider, 151 00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:06.120 you know, because you are in the cradle of football, Bucky. 152 00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:08.600 You're there in Green Bay and you're you know, you're 153 00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:11.839 you're doing your thing, and you know you're talking. You're 154 00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:14.519 talking to all these other fantasy guys during the week 155 00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:16.360 with sharpens your skills. 156 00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:16.560 For this show. 157 00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:19.040 That's the whole purpose for those other shows you keep 158 00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:22.920 talking about. But yeah, fan, now, if Shadoor Sanders going 159 00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:23.720 to start the game for. 160 00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:25.079 Cleveland, yeah, that's the play. 161 00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:31.759 Oh so when Chador starts, Spanning's fifteen points plus. Uh, 162 00:08:31.879 --> 00:08:34.639 it's it's just it's in. You know, in the KFFSC. 163 00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:38.679 Unless you're in an ancillary league, you have no waivers. 164 00:08:38.679 --> 00:08:42.200 Main event FFBC you have no waivers. There's nothing that 165 00:08:42.279 --> 00:08:46.360 can be done. So you know, just just say a 166 00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:48.879 prayer for soft tissue if you are in. If you 167 00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.759 can't do some waivers, go get and you believe in injuries. 168 00:08:52.840 --> 00:08:57.279 Kittle's hurt, go get, Go get Tongas. Yeah, yeah, go get. 169 00:08:58.000 --> 00:08:59.519 We'll get to Kittle in a little bit too. 170 00:08:59.559 --> 00:09:01.440 But I think it's interesting that you bring him up 171 00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:05.360 because this is a bad situation for tight ends in general. 172 00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:08.480 In Week seventeen in high Stakes Fantasy, and Bowers is 173 00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:12.159 just done. Yeah, Bowers is done. He's on IR for 174 00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:15.879 what it's worth. Harold Fannin did say, and again, I 175 00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:21.919 take injury reports from the player himself with a grain 176 00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:24.960 of salt. But Fannin did say he plans on playing 177 00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:26.360 against the Steelers this week. 178 00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:29.559 So Harold's playing for Cleveland. Went to school in Bowling Green, 179 00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:32.519 is from Ohio, the same state as the great John Anderson. 180 00:09:32.559 --> 00:09:36.360 He'll be playing if those guys don't those guys don't 181 00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:39.720 say things. You know what my favorite college team is 182 00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:43.080 in Ohio. Go ahead, John Carroll University. Just want to 183 00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:47.559 throw that out. D three Division three all right in 184 00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:49.159 league this year. That's all I'm saying. 185 00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:51.000 Are they Are they still playing right now? 186 00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:51.639 Or no? 187 00:09:51.639 --> 00:09:51.799 No? 188 00:09:51.879 --> 00:09:53.600 They lost last week? Oh they did. 189 00:09:53.639 --> 00:09:58.519 Okay, I'm looking it up because the conference that my 190 00:09:58.799 --> 00:10:04.440 alma mater played in uh featured four teams in the 191 00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:06.840 Division three College Football Playoff this year. 192 00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:08.840 My alma mater was not one of them. 193 00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:11.679 I forget that. You went to college, the Barber college, 194 00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:14.360 your barber school you went to had a football team. 195 00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:21.879 The college you are great, Pharaoh. No, my my college. 196 00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:26.279 My University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Titans. Oh, they can place college. 197 00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:30.399 I can tell you this, Farrell. The one team that 198 00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:33.840 is still left from the WEI Act the Wisconsin Intercollegiate 199 00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:37.759 Athletic Conference is the u W River Falls Falcons, who 200 00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:42.039 beat JOHNS Hopkins in the Semis and they will face 201 00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:45.200 North Central, the the powers. 202 00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:48.600 Out of Uh yeah, that's the team. 203 00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:51.440 That's They're the ones who took out John Carroll. 204 00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:54.399 And are they playing that championship in Canton, Ohio in 205 00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:55.960 the Hall of Fame Stateum. 206 00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:58.399 I, I well they you should go. Let's just drop everything. 207 00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:04.000 I will say this. They they that used to be 208 00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:06.600 the Stag Bowl and and I thought that was in 209 00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:08.600 West Virginia. I don't know if they still play it 210 00:11:08.639 --> 00:11:11.600 there or not, but I mean I can tell you 211 00:11:12.039 --> 00:11:15.639 that North Central and UW. River Falls are are squaring 212 00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:20.000 off in the Division III College Football Championship on January fourth. 213 00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:24.639 Very win that game. I have no idea pop tarts 214 00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:27.399 one of these trophies. Oh there it is. 215 00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:32.120 They don't get that looks they don't get a trophy 216 00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:32.840 that looks that good. 217 00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:38.320 That is okay. You you tease this with George Kittle, Okay, 218 00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:38.799 right now. 219 00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:42.639 Kyle Shanahan, the head coach of the San Francisco forty 220 00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:45.399 nine Ers, said that George Kittle will be a game 221 00:11:45.799 --> 00:11:51.080 time decision. And why is this interesting because game time 222 00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:55.600 for the Niners will be on Sunday night football, which 223 00:11:55.679 --> 00:11:58.279 is very, very frustrating for all of us. He did 224 00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:02.639 not practice this week, he told Kyle Shanahan. According to 225 00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:05.159 Nick Wagner, who covers the forty nine ers at ESPN 226 00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:08.320 dot com, Kyle Shanahan said that Kittle told him he 227 00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:12.559 should have a better answer by tomorrow regarding his availability 228 00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:18.320 for Week seventeen. Kittle has played through injury clearly less 229 00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:22.240 than one hundred percent. Here, Pharrell, I said the sky 230 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:24.960 was falling with one Harold Fannin. If the sky is 231 00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:27.879 falling with Harold Fannin, it is just crushing on you 232 00:12:27.960 --> 00:12:29.240 with George Kittle right now. 233 00:12:29.799 --> 00:12:30.679 I have no. 234 00:12:32.159 --> 00:12:35.639 Confidence in this guy playing on Sunday at all. And 235 00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:38.120 the fact that he's playing Sunday night, to me, it's 236 00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:41.120 a slam dunk. Don't take the zero. Get somebody else 237 00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:46.799 in there on Saturday afternoon or evening with the Packers, 238 00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:51.080 the Ravens, the Chargers, the Texans. Get somebody in there 239 00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:54.879 before this thing blows up in your face on Sunday night. 240 00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:57.360 I don't think he's gonna go farrel What do you 241 00:12:57.440 --> 00:12:59.840 think as far as Kittle goes in championship? 242 00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:02.279 Yeah, I think I'm glad you went to school in 243 00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:04.799 Wisconsin and it was not medical school, because you would 244 00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:06.440 go off around with your chart and say, I see 245 00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:06.879 no hope. 246 00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:08.679 There's no hope here for your patient. 247 00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:14.720 Well again here this is quarterback related. Party is on fire. 248 00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:20.200 Party has been tremendous. And that's and for the first time, 249 00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:25.039 the Niners are healthy with the exception of Kittle, And 250 00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:30.159 I think what here could cause hesitation? What does the 251 00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:32.840 forty nine ers have to play for? They're likely not 252 00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:36.039 to win the division, which is another ticket I can 253 00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:40.960 tear up, but they've already earned their playoff spot, which 254 00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:43.799 right they're going to be in the playoffs. So there's 255 00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:46.279 not really a whole lot of things that could happen. 256 00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:51.519 And they have the opportunity to let Kittle be on 257 00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:53.919 a snap count or not play at all, and play 258 00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:56.919 a very good tight end who played well earlier this season, 259 00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:02.759 so that their need, their situation for Kittle not to play. 260 00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:09.240 Seems to me to be more convenient than I will say. 261 00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:12.080 For what it's worth, there is a chance that the 262 00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:14.960 Niners still could get the one seed in the NFC. 263 00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:15.799 Not a great. 264 00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:20.000 Opportunity, mind you, but there is a chance when it 265 00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.000 comes to that. So maybe they want to deploy him 266 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:27.840 on Sunday night football against the Bears, who could be 267 00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:32.720 a potential NFC champions a matchup. It could be a 268 00:14:32.960 --> 00:14:36.759 potential NFC playoff matchup at a minimum. 269 00:14:36.799 --> 00:14:40.000 So I don't know. I think that the. 270 00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:43.039 Niners do want to play him. It's a question of 271 00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:45.600 if he is going to be available, and I don't 272 00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:46.559 want to mess around with that. 273 00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:50.039 Tom Smith makes a good point and Alex Johnson here 274 00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:53.480 and he says, doctor Balke has a nice ring to it. 275 00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:55.960 You know he should meet your good friend doctor ericson. 276 00:14:57.279 --> 00:14:59.559 That guy has a medical degree. I do that guy 277 00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:00.960 has all kinds of degrees. 278 00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:05.600 Yeah, Tom Smith, timing in the Niners play the Seattle 279 00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:08.679 Seahawks in week eighteen, so there is still a little hope. 280 00:15:08.519 --> 00:15:09.440 Of winning the division. 281 00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:13.000 You are right, Hey, Yeah, so Tom, I won't tear 282 00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:14.279 up the ticket. 283 00:15:14.799 --> 00:15:16.919 Yeah, never tear up the ticket. I don't. I don't. 284 00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:19.279 I don't like that. I just even when I know 285 00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:22.639 it's a loser, I never tear it up. Farrell speaking 286 00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:25.000 of I'm gonna get let's get into the minutia here. 287 00:15:25.360 --> 00:15:28.279 You don't never tear him up. No, I never store 288 00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:28.679 them all. 289 00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:32.039 For God's sake, hold on, hold on, I'm gonna do this. 290 00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:34.679 Right now. I'll show you this right here. I don't 291 00:15:34.759 --> 00:15:35.799 have to rent of storage. 292 00:15:35.919 --> 00:15:38.200 Hold on, hold on, No, this is this is not 293 00:15:38.960 --> 00:15:41.679 this is just from the past year. Okay, I'm gonna 294 00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:43.879 show you this right now. I get a stack of 295 00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:49.320 them right here. Are all losers. They're all losers over 296 00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:50.559 the course. It is about a year and a half. 297 00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:52.120 Got not a year, but a year and a half 298 00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:55.159 right here. And I never tear them up. Okay, I 299 00:15:55.480 --> 00:15:58.240 keep them right here. Whether that's this, this is probably 300 00:15:58.440 --> 00:15:59.720 bad hoodoo to not do. 301 00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:02.360 You go down. Yeah, I know. 302 00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:04.600 I don't go through them. I just I just hold him. 303 00:16:04.679 --> 00:16:09.320 I hold him all right. Now here we go. Josh 304 00:16:09.360 --> 00:16:13.200 Allen fare is apparently going to play on Sunday against 305 00:16:13.240 --> 00:16:15.679 the Eagles. This according to Chris Brown, who covers the Bills. 306 00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:19.879 Sean McDermott stating today that Josh Allen's going to go. 307 00:16:20.240 --> 00:16:23.159 He has a sore foot, and apparently the soreness in 308 00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:29.360 Josh Allen's foot has dissipated throughout the week. Alan had 309 00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:32.559 this injury happened to him this past week against the Browns, 310 00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:35.399 and maybe it's none too serious. 311 00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:35.960 I get it. 312 00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:39.879 And he didn't miss any action after he hurt the 313 00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:43.799 foot in Week sixteen as well. However, if you look 314 00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:47.000 at the Bills offense, they have not been able to 315 00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:49.360 move the ball well through the air. Whether that's on 316 00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:51.960 Josh Allen, there's the receivers. That's that's a matter of 317 00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.080 personal perspective here. I get it, and Sean McDermott doesn't 318 00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:58.320 expect that the foot injury is going to slow Alan down. 319 00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:04.279 This could be me reaching here, but with everything on 320 00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:07.440 the line and knowing that this is not an easy 321 00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:11.920 matchup for Josh Allen, Ferrell, do you envision a scenario 322 00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:17.160 where it's possible that Josh Allen is not the best 323 00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:19.920 quarterback choice for your fantasy team in Week seventeen? 324 00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:22.319 I can agree with that. I would play party over. 325 00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:26.920 Okay, so you can see the scenario you would play 326 00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:30.480 party over Josh Allen this week. Okay, let me throw 327 00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:33.960 another one at you here. Josh Allen against the Eagles 328 00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:35.960 or Drake May. 329 00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:38.640 At the Jets. 330 00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:41.160 Hard to figure out? 331 00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:43.559 Yeah, that's rough, that's rough. 332 00:17:43.960 --> 00:17:45.200 I know Josh Allen. 333 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:46.480 I would play May. 334 00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:51.160 Yeah, and John. The people that are in on Josh 335 00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:54.920 Allen are real believers, and they spent significant draft capital 336 00:17:54.960 --> 00:17:57.359 for him, and they probably don't have a Drake mate, 337 00:17:57.400 --> 00:17:57.920 but they might. 338 00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:00.599 But yeah, I could. I could make a case for 339 00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:01.400 Drake may there. 340 00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:03.960 Oh you well, you want to throw up, Let's go 341 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.440 down to Miami and do Josh Allen and Quinn Ebers. 342 00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:11.079 Okay, that's no, we're not doing that because Josh Quinn one. 343 00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:12.920 And then you know, all. 344 00:18:12.880 --> 00:18:14.319 Right, let me let me do a real one here. 345 00:18:14.519 --> 00:18:16.039 Quinn threw for sixty yards. 346 00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:18.440 He was very good. 347 00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:22.200 What that guy from Minnesota throw for Max Brosmer, Yeah, 348 00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:27.640 fifty one yards? Okay, but his team had a total 349 00:18:27.680 --> 00:18:30.599 of three passing yards and they beat the Lions by 350 00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:31.440 two touchdowns. 351 00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:32.839 So take that for what it's worth. 352 00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:37.000 Last one, I'll bring up Josh Allen, Farrell, Josh Allen 353 00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:39.960 or Trevor Lawrence at Indy. 354 00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:44.880 Trevor Lawrence playing inside based on the way he's played 355 00:18:44.960 --> 00:18:50.759 lately in the team coming together, Wow, maybe Jacksonville's quarterback 356 00:18:50.880 --> 00:18:51.799 Trevor Lawrence. 357 00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:54.519 I'm gonna go with Allen in that in that case, 358 00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:57.759 but I certainly think you should think you you know what, 359 00:18:57.839 --> 00:19:00.720 you what? What Lawrence did last week in Denver was 360 00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:04.400 pretty impressive, and so if anybody wants to say, like, no, 361 00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:06.279 I'm gonna ride the hot hand. I'm gonna play Lawrence 362 00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:09.200 at Indy this week over Josh Allen. I fully get that. 363 00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:09.920 I get it. 364 00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:12.240 And that's one I think you could have. If you 365 00:19:12.279 --> 00:19:14.920 could Trevor Lawrence like round, you. 366 00:19:14.839 --> 00:19:18.480 Could have Josh Allen and Drake May. It's possible. No, no, now, 367 00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:21.519 I don't think you'd have Josh Allen and Joe Burrow Farrell, 368 00:19:21.640 --> 00:19:23.119 but I think Burrow over Allen. 369 00:19:23.319 --> 00:19:25.720 Some guy would. He's not playing for anything though. 370 00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:29.559 Right, that's true. I would also just for what it's worth. 371 00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:33.359 You said perty over Allen. I'm gonna say Josh Allen 372 00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:38.039 over Jacoby Brissett against the Cincinnati Bengals this week. Would 373 00:19:38.079 --> 00:19:42.799 you be playing Allen over Brissett? Yes, okay, all right. 374 00:19:43.640 --> 00:19:46.400 Last thing I want to get to here, and before 375 00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:49.960 we get into our guests, Craig Luandowski here. Josh Jacobs 376 00:19:50.640 --> 00:19:54.720 no longer on the injury report for the Green Bay Packers. 377 00:19:55.039 --> 00:19:59.519 He will be playing tomorrow night at lambeau Field against 378 00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:02.759 the Baltimore Ravens. But you know who will not be 379 00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:05.920 playing in this game is Jordan Love who was ruled 380 00:20:05.920 --> 00:20:08.680 out by the Packers. Wow, And it will be Malik 381 00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:13.960 Willis versus I'm assuming Tyler Huntley. I have not seen 382 00:20:14.039 --> 00:20:16.440 the Ravens rule out Lamar Jackson yet, but they did 383 00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:20.720 list him as doubtful yesterday. So this game and Farrell 384 00:20:20.759 --> 00:20:23.640 will bring in the injury status of Josh Jacobs, Jordan Love, 385 00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:28.720 Lamar Jackson into this. This is a very very interesting 386 00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:32.519 game for fantasy purposes because we do have guys like 387 00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:37.000 Zay Flowers, like Christian Watson, like Josh Jacobs. You bring 388 00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:40.880 in Tyler Huntley and the Malik Willis aspect here. The 389 00:20:40.920 --> 00:20:43.119 total on this game, I believe has dropped to thirty 390 00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:44.920 nine and a half. I'm gonna look that up right now, 391 00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:48.480 because I did see the Packers move from a two 392 00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:50.440 and a half point favorite to a four and a 393 00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:53.079 half point favorite, and then with the Love news here today, 394 00:20:53.279 --> 00:20:55.160 they have now dropped to a three point favorite. The 395 00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:57.359 total has dropped to thirty eight and a half. Are 396 00:20:57.400 --> 00:21:01.519 you breaking ties in your lineup this week against players 397 00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:06.640 like Flowers, like Christian Watson, like Josh Jacobs. I wonder 398 00:21:06.720 --> 00:21:09.599 how many significant fantasy players they're going to be in 399 00:21:09.680 --> 00:21:14.039 this game with two again, what we think is going 400 00:21:14.079 --> 00:21:18.079 to be two backup quarterbacks manning these offenses. Saturday night 401 00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:20.680
