We do not have Phil in attendance tonight.
00:00:19.967 --> 00:00:21.286
I do not know what he's doing.
00:00:21.286 --> 00:00:22.725
I don't know if I really want to know what he's doing.
00:00:22.725 --> 00:00:24.524
Honestly, he is not here.
00:00:24.524 --> 00:00:26.786

I guess I should say are you my new buddy?
00:00:45.924 --> 00:00:47.048
Does anyone want to take?
00:00:47.107 --> 00:00:47.670
a buddy role.
00:00:47.670 --> 00:00:48.351
Yeah, I was doing good.
00:00:48.351 --> 00:00:53.420
I just got back from my wife's grandma's house Actually Jordan's grandma.
00:00:53.420 --> 00:00:54.323
It's been a good day.
00:00:55.145 --> 00:00:56.770
Nice, nice, jordan, how you doing?
00:00:56.770 --> 00:00:59.006
You've got basketball season officially.
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:00.063
I'm doing good.
00:01:00.063 --> 00:01:06.385
Just got home from practice so I ran home and we're here Been a busy day, but it's good.
00:01:06.807 --> 00:01:07.209
Perfect.
00:01:07.209 --> 00:01:09.668
Well, let's get these week four matchups, guys.
00:01:09.668 --> 00:01:16.766
I am coming in from out of town home of the Savannah bananas, so I'm on this East Coast time zone, the thing I do not like at all.
00:01:16.766 --> 00:01:17.409
It's rough.
00:01:17.409 --> 00:01:24.147
But I did post on Twitter, you know Craziest Waiver Wire ads for a t-shirt and I got one crazy one for you guys.
00:01:24.147 --> 00:01:25.385
Go ahead, check this out guys.
00:01:25.385 --> 00:01:31.885
Every Tuesday, every Wednesday, I will post for waiver day Craziest Waiver ads so you guys can go fill that out.
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:38.673
This week's Craziest Waiver ad was someone in goes to L Hefe at L Hefe, munoz 13.
00:01:38.673 --> 00:01:44.932
And someone in his league added the Pittsburgh Steelers defense for $51 worth of fab.
00:01:44.932 --> 00:01:47.206
So I think that's pretty crazy.
00:01:47.206 --> 00:01:48.204
I'm curious to see.
00:01:48.204 --> 00:01:56.109
I'm curious to see what the second two people did bid, but I think that's way too much money for it for a defense.
00:01:56.109 --> 00:01:59.469
So we're all about exposing bad league mates, right?
00:01:59.469 --> 00:02:01.768
So congratulations, l Hefe.
00:02:01.768 --> 00:02:05.349
You'll be getting that fantasy athlete t-shirt.
00:02:05.349 --> 00:02:07.146
So I will be contacting you.
00:02:07.146 --> 00:02:09.604
But yeah, that was the craziest one by far.
00:02:09.604 --> 00:02:13.025
So all ready.
00:02:13.025 --> 00:02:16.710

You got that quick and ready to go, or we not add those up?
00:02:42.627 --> 00:02:46.324
Yeah, Yep, no, I just do it right now actually.
00:02:46.324 --> 00:02:48.506
So I went.
00:02:48.506 --> 00:02:53.650
So, trent, you actually were in last place this week with nine and seven.
00:02:53.650 --> 00:02:57.447
Phil was in a third with 10 and six.
00:02:57.447 --> 00:03:02.145
Seth went 11 and five and I actually won the week at 12 and four.
00:03:02.545 --> 00:03:03.307
Nice Wow.
00:03:03.307 --> 00:03:05.012
So do you match my record last week?
00:03:05.012 --> 00:03:06.563
Did I get 12 last week or no?
00:03:08.801 --> 00:03:10.243
No, you were 11 and five.
00:03:10.243 --> 00:03:11.066
11 and five.
00:03:11.246 --> 00:03:11.507
Okay.
00:03:11.507 --> 00:03:15.653
One and week two, so Gotta get back in those double digits, so all right.
00:03:15.653 --> 00:03:18.388
And Phil did send his picks in, so that is good.
00:03:18.388 --> 00:03:26.006
I hope we get in dock there, but we might just dock him for you know, not having perfect attendance, right, so we'll do that.
00:03:26.687 --> 00:03:29.105
All right, maybe my name description.
00:03:29.105 --> 00:03:30.906
Yeah, seth says it all yeah.
00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:33.987
Phil Seth's name description on YouTube says it all.
00:03:33.987 --> 00:03:37.609
You guys can go check that out at TFF dudes.
00:03:37.609 --> 00:03:40.947
All right, so let's jump into Thursday night football.
00:03:40.947 --> 00:03:46.070
Here, guys, we have the two and one Lions traveling to Green Bay to take on the two and one Packers.
00:03:46.070 --> 00:03:49.927
The total is 45 and Detroit is favored by one and a half.
00:03:49.927 --> 00:03:53.887
Christian Watson is playing in this game.
00:03:53.887 --> 00:03:56.889
I am not sure about Packers running backs.
00:03:56.960 --> 00:03:57.804
I think you can start.
00:03:57.804 --> 00:03:58.627
Christian Watson.
00:03:58.627 --> 00:04:01.329
Jordan, what notes do you have for this game?
00:04:01.329 --> 00:04:01.822
And we have?
00:04:01.822 --> 00:04:02.826
Do we have a sleeper play?
00:04:02.847 --> 00:04:07.383
Yes, I think.
00:04:07.383 --> 00:04:11.248
I think we just you people need to watch, the need to watch socials with sleeper play.
00:04:11.550 --> 00:04:13.092
All right, that's perfect, that's perfect.
00:04:16.702 --> 00:04:21.973
And I thought we we got some of the injured news before the pod, which I'm actually surprised about.
00:04:21.973 --> 00:04:34.065
We got the Christian Watson news tonight what 10 minutes ago almost that he's playing, so and then Aaron Jones are waiting on Aaron Jones, so I tend to think maybe Aaron Jones isn't playing.
00:04:34.065 --> 00:04:35.389
I don't know, though We'll see.
00:04:35.389 --> 00:04:38.084
I guess.
00:04:38.084 --> 00:04:40.250
Can you play Christian Watson?
00:04:40.250 --> 00:04:42.526
You just said you can, but I don't know.
00:04:42.526 --> 00:04:43.228
Can you try it?
00:04:44.562 --> 00:04:45.185
I think you can.
00:04:45.947 --> 00:04:49.949
Yeah, I said I think he's the number one and you've held on to him this long.
00:04:50.300 --> 00:05:05.706
I think you kind of so, but I guess it maybe depends on how your team is with Christian Watson, because I would just worry, like are they going to let him just go full, go right away, like talking about a guy who's had hamstring problems?
00:05:05.706 --> 00:05:07.189
An injury.
00:05:07.189 --> 00:05:15.392
No, I know, but like, are they just going to go full, go at 90% snaps with Christian Watson right away?
00:05:15.392 --> 00:05:17.283
I I have a hard time believing that.
00:05:17.283 --> 00:05:22.963
Like, is it going to be 30%, 40%, 50, 60, like where I just don't know?
00:05:22.963 --> 00:05:23.725
There's a lot of questions.
00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:26.151
I guess the severity of the hamstring injury right.
00:05:27.579 --> 00:05:29.447
Yeah, I mean three weeks.
00:05:29.447 --> 00:05:32.088
So I don't know.
00:05:32.088 --> 00:05:35.490
I just, I just I'm very like, I just don't know.
00:05:35.490 --> 00:05:42.767
Maybe we get some news, and honestly we probably will get some news of a snap count or full go, some type of limitations.
00:05:42.767 --> 00:05:47.571
If we get no, no limitation from the coach, then I'm starting them.
00:05:47.571 --> 00:05:52.370
But if I hear, oh, we're going to ease them in, you know, there'll be some limitations, I don't know.
00:05:52.370 --> 00:05:54.786
I probably depends on who else you have on your team.
00:05:55.928 --> 00:05:59.829
Yeah, I think I think most guys would probably have dubs on their team.
00:05:59.829 --> 00:06:04.009
Like I know every league, I have Watson and I have dubs, so I'm not really worried either way.
00:06:04.009 --> 00:06:12.168
I think the explosiveness that Watson has is just what I've been missing in that, like, as my second receiver, you know that I've been missing.
00:06:12.168 --> 00:06:22.704
No, yeah, I get you Um, so I also draft in a best ball draft, or in a in a uh Thursday night slate draft on underdog, so on to play.
00:06:22.923 --> 00:06:25.048
Nice, yeah, nice.
00:06:25.588 --> 00:06:26.831
Yeah, it's actually actually.
00:06:26.831 --> 00:06:27.552
I would take that back.
00:06:27.552 --> 00:06:30.024
It's a Thursday night, sunday morning slate.
00:06:30.024 --> 00:06:32.350
That's what they did, nice, nice.
00:06:33.274 --> 00:06:34.235
Okay, so I go ahead.
00:06:34.235 --> 00:06:38.831
Well no, I was just saying sleepers, our favorite place for fancy football.
00:06:38.831 --> 00:06:40.759
Inter promo code dudes 100.
00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:42.947
They'll match up to $100 really helps us out.
00:06:42.947 --> 00:06:44.089
Could help you out.
00:06:44.089 --> 00:06:45.783
You know we're still a little bitter about that.
00:06:45.783 --> 00:06:48.391
Uh, monday night burner that Puka let us down.
00:06:48.391 --> 00:06:50.358
You know I talked about that a little bit on our waiver pod.
00:06:50.358 --> 00:06:52.146
If you haven't listened, go check it out.
00:06:52.146 --> 00:06:57.603
I just got Jordan in a bad mood again, though bringing up we were a catch away from some serious cash I had.
00:06:57.723 --> 00:07:00.211
I had finally gotten over that, and then you brought it back.
00:07:00.211 --> 00:07:01.223
Well, what's up with that?
00:07:01.223 --> 00:07:06.586
I'd finally moved on, you know, moved on To the next light and you bring it back up.
00:07:06.687 --> 00:07:07.088
I'm sorry.
00:07:07.759 --> 00:07:08.524
But for what's worth, though.
00:07:08.524 --> 00:07:14.187
We did the math on what Jordan's up this year, and we're up six units right now, so we're looking pretty good, yeah.
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:17.608
So so yeah, on the, on the, on the video, and that wasn't even a video play.
00:07:17.608 --> 00:07:22.290
For being honest, trent, right, Like we were just mad because all of us had that play, we didn't give that out.
00:07:22.620 --> 00:07:24.687
It was just yeah, we were just mad about that.
00:07:24.687 --> 00:07:29.071
But uh, video plays two and two, one unit.
00:07:29.071 --> 00:07:31.908
If you put one unit on it, that could be whatever your unit is.
00:07:31.908 --> 00:07:37.786
I, uh, like it could be 50 bucks, 100 bucks, 20 bucks, five bucks, I don't, I don't unit shame.
00:07:37.786 --> 00:07:39.446
People can play whatever they want, that's something.
00:07:39.446 --> 00:07:42.846
But if you go with one unit on the video plays, we're up.
00:07:42.846 --> 00:07:45.391
We're two and two, but we're up six units.
00:07:45.391 --> 00:07:50.672
So, like, if you play the video plays, in theory you should be up six, six units.
00:07:50.672 --> 00:07:55.968
So that's still pretty good and because they're all 5X, you know you can afford to lose some and still be profitable.
00:07:56.267 --> 00:07:58.471
So Yep, that's the fun part of it.
00:07:58.471 --> 00:08:01.069
So you just got to be about 50% and you're going to make money.
00:08:01.069 --> 00:08:03.199
So All right.
00:08:03.860 --> 00:08:06.487
And you'll have a sleeper play on, on, on.
00:08:06.607 --> 00:08:12.459
Twitter Jordan Sleeper play, yeah, yeah, probably tomorrow morning, and that is at J metha, underscore 17.
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:15.920
So that's J E M H T A, underscore 17.
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:16.625
Guys, give them a follow.
00:08:16.625 --> 00:08:20.509
I will also be retweeting that at T F F dudes.
00:08:23.622 --> 00:08:38.087
Um, so on the Detroit side, sharon, I think it's pretty obvious, like Montgomery, we need the Montgomery news, that that's also a big news in this game, because if Montgomery plays, I think he is viable, I think Gibbs is probably.
00:08:38.087 --> 00:08:41.203
You're just going to play Gibbs, no matter what, you know your draft capital on him.
00:08:41.203 --> 00:08:46.160
And then St Brown, and then I like Laporta, laporta this week, um.
00:08:46.301 --> 00:08:47.224
I like Laporta too.
00:08:47.403 --> 00:08:54.583
Seth, yeah, laporta, and then I think on the other side, seth, you can take this one, because you you pointed out first about Musgrave.
00:08:55.587 --> 00:08:55.849
Yeah.
00:08:55.849 --> 00:09:04.927
So if you look, I think, um, both teams are very have getting up like really good yards to the tight ends and touchdowns.
00:09:04.927 --> 00:09:10.793
Um, so I think this is like probably the best play of the week for tight ends.
00:09:10.793 --> 00:09:18.831
Either you want to play one of these two guys and I think they both have a chance of being a top five finisher potentially, like one of them could have a huge game.
00:09:18.831 --> 00:09:26.013
I would probably lean more Laporta has the huge game, but, um, I think if you play either of these guys, you're going to be pretty happy.
00:09:26.340 --> 00:09:30.331
So I mean Detroit's given up the most fancy points of tight ends this year.
00:09:30.899 --> 00:09:34.888
The most yards of tight ends this year, like they're really giving it up to tight ends.
00:09:34.888 --> 00:09:41.447
And the issue with Musgrave, though, is I just and this is where I just don't know how much does Watson coming back into that?
00:09:41.447 --> 00:09:43.765
It's just, there's a lot of question marks.
00:09:43.765 --> 00:09:50.966
I think I'm going to I'll say if it wasn't such a good spot, I would have more doubts, but those numbers don't lie.
00:09:50.966 --> 00:09:58.664
I mean, detroit obviously is is vulnerable to the tight ends, and Musgrave was a good receiving tight end, so I think I'm going to trust Musgrave this week.
00:09:58.684 --> 00:10:00.571
Yeah, he's tight end 12 on the season.
00:10:00.571 --> 00:10:02.407
We're still waiting for him to get into the end zone.
00:10:02.407 --> 00:10:04.167
I, it's going to happen, guys.
00:10:04.340 --> 00:10:07.589
I like I'm really should week week one must have scored.
00:10:07.589 --> 00:10:10.344
He literally fell, tripped over the grass.
00:10:10.344 --> 00:10:11.586
Yeah, and it's one.
00:10:11.647 --> 00:10:13.190
Yeah, so he's going to find the end zone.
00:10:13.190 --> 00:10:15.092
I I'm big on Musgraves and Ferguson.
00:10:15.092 --> 00:10:17.967
I keep saying on the waiver pod, add those two guys.
00:10:17.967 --> 00:10:20.528
Is there anything else we want to touch on in here?
00:10:20.528 --> 00:10:23.966
You know your plan, your St Brown's, your plan.
00:10:23.966 --> 00:10:25.370
Your is St Brown, is he?
00:10:25.370 --> 00:10:26.552
He has a little bit of a turf toe.
00:10:26.552 --> 00:10:28.323
He's fighting through, but he should be.
00:10:28.644 --> 00:10:29.746
I mean he's good to go.
00:10:29.746 --> 00:10:30.589
He looks fine last week.
00:10:30.589 --> 00:10:33.447
Yeah, oh, trent, I'm done with AJ Dillon.
00:10:33.447 --> 00:10:37.046
No more AJ Dillon, like the guys yeah.
00:10:37.046 --> 00:10:38.691
I'm surprised that's on your set.
00:10:38.691 --> 00:10:43.210
Maybe he has some value Arent Jones still questionable.
00:10:43.210 --> 00:10:46.385
Honestly, maybe AJ Dillon has more value with Aaron Jones.
00:10:46.385 --> 00:10:46.986
I don't know.
00:10:46.986 --> 00:10:49.591
He might I just, I'm done with AJ Dillon Like.
00:10:50.480 --> 00:11:03.410
Are they what I'm curious about, seth, I don't know if you have PFF pulled up, but like I don't know what the Packers average rush inside the five yard line is this year, maybe he's not getting those opportunities to run the ball within the five yard line.
00:11:03.539 --> 00:11:16.288
I know PFF usually has that and I'm going to look it up right now, if you have to have for the rest of the show I'm looking at the game this if I'm looking at the game, it seems like Detroit has the edge running the ball, so I think, if Montgomery plays gives, it's going to be a good spot there.
00:11:16.288 --> 00:11:22.051
I think the run game, though, is actually for the Packers.
00:11:22.051 --> 00:11:29.368
I mean, it's at a, it's the passes at a 22% advantage, the runs at a negative 38% advantage.
00:11:29.368 --> 00:11:36.785
The Lions only give up 40% of their touchdowns within the five yard line, so it's going to be hard to get that running back touchdown.
00:11:36.785 --> 00:11:55.006
Yeah, I just think I think you just stay away from this, the Packers guys, I think I think we're all hoping this is a high scoring game, so I think we're thinking a lot of passing, and so I think I would just stay away from Aaron Jones, who's been hurt in, aja Dillon, who hasn't done squat while he's been hurt.
00:11:55.047 --> 00:12:01.289
So yeah, and honestly, thursday night football games don't tend to be high scoring games, right.
00:12:01.289 --> 00:12:14.551
Last week kind of was on one side, but yeah historically it seems like the short week kind of favors, the short week defense kind of the longer the season goes on, potentially.
00:12:14.551 --> 00:12:15.861
What do we want to make?
00:12:15.922 --> 00:12:25.571
our thing is that the Detroit defense isn't great, and neither is green based defense so yeah, no, it is at 45.
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:26.663
So that's a decent total.
00:12:27.419 --> 00:12:27.500
Yeah.
00:12:28.143 --> 00:12:32.198
I am going to say that the I'm going to go Packers win this one at home.
00:12:32.198 --> 00:12:39.928
As much as I love Dan Campbell, as much as I like the Lions, as much as I like Jared Goff and all those weapons, I think this is a good Thursday night game.
00:12:39.928 --> 00:12:41.250
I'm excited for it.
00:12:41.250 --> 00:12:42.984
But I'm going to go Packers, I'm going to go with the home team.
00:12:45.883 --> 00:12:48.827
Man, the Packers are.
00:12:48.827 --> 00:12:51.974
Packers are favorite or Detroit's favored.
00:12:51.974 --> 00:12:53.684
I'm going to go Detroit here.
00:12:55.721 --> 00:12:56.283
Yeah, I got.
00:12:56.283 --> 00:12:57.606
I think I'm going Detroit too.
00:12:58.489 --> 00:13:02.186
Okay, all right, and I believe Phil Phil has all his picks.
00:13:02.186 --> 00:13:03.330
They're on my phone right now.
00:13:03.330 --> 00:13:11.668
He didn't put it on the show, doc, like a normal human being, so we have them, but we don't know what he's picking, unfortunately, I'd have a hard time believing he was going for the Packers, right.
00:13:13.964 --> 00:13:14.365
Yeah, I'll.
00:13:14.365 --> 00:13:15.308
I'll fill him in later.
00:13:15.701 --> 00:13:16.465
It's not worth our time.
00:13:16.465 --> 00:13:17.884
Phil picks the Lions.
00:13:18.721 --> 00:13:21.163
All right, so I have a.
00:13:21.163 --> 00:13:24.412
Let's go over to our next game, over to the Sunday slate.
00:13:24.412 --> 00:13:28.706
Guys, this game is across the pond, so get your tea and crumpets ready.
00:13:28.706 --> 00:13:30.966
This is a I'm not sure what time this is.
00:13:30.966 --> 00:13:32.482
This is a 6 30 AM game.
00:13:32.482 --> 00:13:35.948
6 30 kickoff 6 30 Pacific time.
00:13:36.028 --> 00:13:37.471
9 30 Eastern Standard Time.
00:13:37.812 --> 00:13:38.052
All right.
00:13:38.052 --> 00:13:44.442
So we have the Lions at two and one playing the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are one and two, 43 and a half total.
00:13:44.442 --> 00:13:45.947
Jacksonville's favored by three.
00:13:45.947 --> 00:13:48.091
London game over the pond.
00:13:48.091 --> 00:13:49.503
Calvin Ridley revenge game.
00:13:49.503 --> 00:13:51.688
Kyle Pitts, I believe, has scored more touchdowns.
00:13:51.688 --> 00:13:54.466
He scored touchdowns on foreign soil.
00:13:54.466 --> 00:13:56.725
He has a London TD, so maybe Pitts has a game.
00:13:56.725 --> 00:13:59.706
I'm I doubt it, but I'm more excited.
00:13:59.706 --> 00:14:01.532
Excited for Calvin Ridley in this game.
00:14:01.532 --> 00:14:03.004
Jordan, what do you got in this hole?
00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:09.883
You know for your Jags question didn't the Calvin Ridley saga start Two years ago?
00:14:10.443 --> 00:14:11.025
he didn't?
00:14:11.187 --> 00:14:12.529
he didn't get on the plane to London.
00:14:12.671 --> 00:14:12.870
Yeah.
