Full Transcription
Thank you, Joe, in this piece. Parlay, what's going on, man?
What's up, brother?
What up, what up?
I'm watching Wakanda Forever.
I haven't seen it yet, so I was watching it, but I'm going to be listening.
I've definitely started Kyler this week, so I'm going to be listening to what y'all have to say about him.
Yeah, man.
Yeah, I like Kyler.
I like what I saw from him last week, man.
He did some really nice things, especially running the ball, man.
That's what I wanted to see.
I wanted to see how he looked running the ball.
He looked back to Kyler Murray.
I mean, he looked just like his old self, so I'm back on the Kyler Murray train.
I have him ranked number seven this week in fantasy.
I dropped him a little bit just because he's still getting it together as far as passing, but I kept him in the top ten because of that rushing upside, man.
You got to with the way he runs and his ability.
Definitely, man, definitely got him up there, but appreciate you guys being on.
Let me get Rip on here as well.
If you guys can go to the Jumbotron, repost the space for me.
I really appreciate that.
Let me see.
I know Rip's in New York.
He's traveling, doing some business, so let me see here.
Oh, there he is.
There's the man of the hour.
Ripper.
He's here.
He made it.
Let's get Ripper on.
James, appreciate both James being on, so that's going to be awesome.
That's going to be awesome, especially if I call on one of you guys.
But you know what, James?
We'll call you CEO.
We're going to call you CEO.
We're going to call you CEO, James, my guy, my Canadian brother with the Bengals playing tonight, so we'll see what the Bengals do tonight.
That's going to be an exciting game.
Let me get Rip on here as the co-host.
How's it going, Tip?
Yo, what up, man?
How are you?
Good.
I think this is my – I've been in sports spaces a lot, but I think this is the first time I've been in your space.
Awesome, man.
Awesome.
Well, you're going to have fun.
Usually our space is at five, but we have to switch it up a little bit today.
I will be in another space a little bit later today with the sports affiliation.
So, guys, go repost the space in there.
We're going to talk about Rippy's – actually, let me put the space up there.
We're going to talk about Rippy's top ten here in just a second.
But, Rippy, what's going on, brother?
How are you?
Yo, yo, yo, tip, tip, tip.
Dude, I am so good.
Thank you for dealing with my crazy schedule and some of my hiccups the last couple weeks.
But I just wanted to do this.
I am currently in New York, as you just said.
I am headed to an actual sports event where I'll be doing a lot of conversation and hopefully have some good news for us in the near future.
But how are you, my friend?
I know you've got a lot going on to yourself.
So, yeah, man, it's been crazy these last couple days.
But, hey, man, you know what?
We got to – just like Rip, we got to take the bull by the horns, you know?
And so, you know, I appreciate his hustle.
Man, and, you know, I'm doing the same thing out here, hustling, just trying to make a name for ourselves, man.
And we've been killing this Rip and Tip Hour.
And, you know, shout out to J-Web just last week for coming on and filling in.
And, man, he did a hell of a job, man.
He killed it, man.
You know what I mean?
Hey, I had no questions.
I had no doubts that he was going to do his thing.
But, man, he came in there and killed it.
But we missed you, Rip.
We did.
We did.
And hope everything's well with the fam.
But, man, let's go ahead and get into this top ten.
And while we're doing that, I'm going to go ahead and put the space in the Jumbotron.
And then we'll get this party started.
So let's go.
Oh, I got my guy Sage.
Oh, hold up, hold up, hold up, Rip, before we do that.
And this is actually for everybody.
But, you know what, man, Sage is the architect of the Sage Up Network.
And he holds a spot in my heart.
You know, he kind of saw, you know, I guess saw something in all of us, man.
And, you know, shout out to Patrick that's doing his space right now.
Shout out to Parlay Joe, Royce with the Primetime Sports Fix, Ripper, myself.
So, without further ado, we're going to give this guy a proper introduction.
That boy, Sage.
Appreciate Sage being on.
And J-Web is on as well.
So, appreciate all you guys coming in at the 4 o'clock hour instead of the 5.
Like I said, we typically do this at 5.
But, man, appreciate that.
You know, with Ripper's schedule, Ripper is ripping it.
So, with his schedule, we appreciate you guys being flexible with us all.
So, Ripper, let's get into this top 10 rankings list, man.
I'm so excited about it.
All right, my man.
All right, listen.
One thing.
I'm on a train.
There's people looking at me.
But I'm doing it because this is what I love.
And so, if you lose me in a few minutes, I'll be back.
I promise I'm about to head into Grand Central.
But, all right, top 10 for week 10 at number one.
When you only lose one game all season, it's got to be the Philadelphia Eagles.
But the crazy thing is this Monday night, they take on the number two team.
Kansas City Chiefs.
Of what was an epic Super Bowl this Monday night.
Don't miss it.
We got our top two teams facing off.
But then, at number three, we got the Baltimore Ravens.
I put them to number one.
Then they lost.
That doesn't work for me.
Number four, Detroit.
Highest ranking they've had all season.
The Lions are number four.
They've been rolling.
They look good.
49ers at five.
Got another W.
The Cowboys.
Dak is playing incredible.
And then, finally, at seven, the Browns.
But they did lose Deshaun.
So, I don't know how that affects them.
We'll have to see the rest of the season.
Of course, number eight, I got the Dolphins.
They're still in the top 10.
You'd like to see them win some of these games that they need to to move up.
But number nine and 10 are going to surprise Minnesota behind the Josh Dobbs.
They've won five straight.
They need the love.
They deserve the credit.
They're number nine.
And the Texans debut.
The Texans are number 10.
Believe in CJ.
Believe in D'Amico.
I believe.
The Texans are making the playoffs.
That's your top 10 for week 10.
That's the fire 10!
I love it!
I love how you went bold and put the Texans in there.
Man, that was beautiful.
Yo, those Texans, what they did last week.
So, I'm here in Houston, guys.
And I'm telling you, this buzz around the Texans.
I'm not a Texans fan by any means.
I am a fantasy fan.
I am a fan of the players.
However, I do for work.
I do root for my Raiders.
And I've been rooted for my Raiders since I was a little kid.
But after that, I got into the fantasy thing.
But I digress.
So, I'm so happy that you did that for the Texans, man.
This buzz here in Houston is electric.
This kid, CJ Stroud, is taking this city by storm.
I mean, in the preseason, you know, we looked at preseason.
You can't really look at preseason.
But we looked at preseason and we were like, oh, it's going to be a year of a struggle, this and that.
They went into Cincinnati last week, the jungle of all places, and beat the Cincinnati Bengals up, man.
And, I mean, this kid, CJ Stroud, just continues to amaze.
I mean, this kid is humble.
He is just electric on the field.
He's accurate with the football.
It's fun to watch him play.
He's having fun out there.
So, I love it.
And I love that you had the Detroit Lions at number four, baby.
I'm telling you guys, I wrote an article on these Detroit Lions at the beginning of the season in May.
And I said that these guys would finish 12-5.
And it's looking like it could possibly come true.
This team is playing very, very well.
Very balanced football.
I love the way they run the ball.
Ripper, tell me what you thought about David Montgomery coming back from his rib injury and getting the yardage that he did last week, getting in that 75-yard touchdown, and Jamar Gibbs running behind that offensive line.
What are your thoughts on that run game?
If I'm any other team in the league, I mean, if you need a tightrope coach, you've got to call David Montgomery.
The way he tiptoed down the sidelines, tightrope, 75 yards, and then you've got Jameer Gibbs.
It's not fair when we think about what Detroit can do.
And then you look at the coaching.
Dan Campbell got a lot of flack when he started as a head coach.
But he's really proven to know what he's doing.
He's a great leader of men.
And he's got people doing the things that they need to do from a team aspect to win.
He's got Jared Goff playing the best football of his career.
And it's just impressive all across the board.
You have to give Detroit love.
And really, you have to consider them that they could have home field advantage throughout the entire NFC playoffs.
So it's something to be impressed by.
And one thing, these are not rankings that I put my own subjective thoughts as far as what I think is going forward.
This is more about my subjective and objective reactions to what I've seen.
So you have to give credit where credit is due.
And Detroit is number four.
I love it.
I love it.
And I see one team that's not on there.
And it's my guy, J-Web, who came and filled in admirably last week for the Ripper.
And it's the Buffalo Bills, man.
This is J-Web's team.
So I am going to give a shout-out to J-Web.
But before I hear from him on these Buffalo Bills, I want you guys to go to the Jumbotron, repost, and like not only Ripper's top 10 list, but repost and like the space as well.
We'll get some more people in here.
Like I said, I know we're doing it at a different time.
But, hey, I appreciate all you guys being in here.
J-Web, what's going on with your Buffalo Bills, man?
What's going on with Stephon Diggs?
Should we be really, really in the panic button, hitting the panic button?
What are we doing right now, man?
I mean, like they shouldn't be on anyone's top 10 list right now.
So no fault of Rippies on that one.
They don't deserve like maybe the top 10 most dysfunctional offenses.
And once again, it's like Sean McDermott firing another coordinator when he is the main problem there.
So they need like if they lose this weekend to the Jets, like I don't know how McDermott keeps his job.
If they lose, they're basically done for the season.
Like they're already a long shot to make the playoffs now.
Diggs and, you know, like the play calling is an issue.
Like Diggs isn't getting the ball enough.
They're not throwing it downfield enough.
There's just so many problems.
There's obviously the turnovers.
Like we don't need to beat that dead horse.
But, I mean, you can still – I believe you can still bet Josh Allen to lead the lead in turnovers or in interceptions thrown at plus money.
And that's like the safest bet potentially ever.
So it's bad news in Buffalo.
Don't know if that's going to change anytime soon.
Yeah, yeah.
It's crazy what's going on over there.
It's like they can't get over themselves as far as the injuries.
But then, man, it's just Josh Allen.
You know, like I don't know.
I'm going to get Ripper's thought on this.
But my thought is, you know, I think he tries to do too much.
He doesn't, you know – he has too much pull.
And I think he needs to lean on the run game a lot more.
I mean, they've got James Cook, a really dynamic running back.
But I just – I don't know.
What are your thoughts on that, Ripper, on the Buffalo Bills?
Well, here's the deal.
I'm going to lose service in a second here because I'm going underground.
But, in the meantime, you know, my thoughts on the Bills are, look, they definitely are in a world of hurt.
I don't understand firing offensive coordinator when the defense had 12 men on the field when you should have won the game.
But you don't know how to substitute special teams.
Can I say one thing?
Yeah.
Yeah.
One thing, that team – because I'm going to lose service in a second.
The team, it lives and dies by Josh Allen.
And right now they're dying.
But just remember, you know, it's really him and not much else.
100% Ripper.
I appreciate that.
Go ahead, Sage.
Yeah, go ahead, man.
Oh, man.
My fault.
I thought he – my fault.
I'm glad you finished that point.
I was going to say, man, if y'all ain't following Rippy, this guy's been his life on the line to be on the show today.
If you can't give him a fault, you might as well block me, for real.
100%.
100%.
Sage, so you know what, man?
We got a big game.
You know, us on here as the Raiders fans, we got a big game coming up against the Miami Dolphins.
I want to get your thoughts on this game coming up.
I actually am going to be speaking and doing a 10-minute video tomorrow morning with the Dolphins content creator.
And we're going to go right at it, man.
So I want to hear from you what you think these Raiders could do against the Rippers' Dolphins in Week 11.
Well, I know one thing's for sure is that they're not going to be able to stop Tyree Kill because he's pretty much unstoppable.
And I think, I mean, Raiders secondary has stepped up from recent years.
But it's still not going to be enough.
I don't foresee this being a close game.
But, you know, the Raider fan in me wants to.
But I actually say, like, Dolphins probably win this game in a comfortable 10-point win.
Probably the Raiders get some, you know, last minute momentum.
But I think having a rookie QB going into this Dolphins defense is not going to be a good recipe.
Along with the Dolphins offense playing at such a high rate.
So I just, I see this being, like, the Jets were a great, great matchup for the Raiders because the Jets offense is terrible.
But this week is a complete opposite.
So, yeah, I'm going to see Dolphins being a little bit comfortable in their win this week.
Even though it pains me to say that in front of a Dolphins fan.
Even though he's a dear friend of mine.
But I'm just, it hurts.
Come on, Raiders.
Yeah, you know, it's going to be tough.
If we try to get into a shootout with these guys, it's not going to work, man.
It's just not going to happen.
There's no way in the world we can match that offense.
So we're going to have to slow the game down, slow the pace, slow the, you know, run the Brock.
That's really our only option.
But I, you know, I'm going to be a realist in this situation.
I'm a Raiders fan, but I got to be real and give it up to Rippy this week.
I think that they're going to beat us.
I think it's going to be close.
I think, you know, 10 points less.
They're going to really give them their best shot.
But, yeah, at the end of the day, man, it's going to really be tough for us to do something this week against them.
But, all right, so we got some more people in this joint.
I appreciate it.
I don't know if Ripper is back.
Ripper, are you back?
I'm still here.
I'm about to lose you, though.
But I'm still here.
Just to note, Dolphins by a million this weekend.
I got the Dolphins.
Let's go, baby.
Hey, guys, go ahead and do me one favor.
I put out a tweet earlier today, but I want to hear from you guys directly in the comment chat.
But give me one player that you are thankful for.
We got a week before Thanksgiving.
There's a lot to be thankful for.
But give me one player that you are thankful for that you drafted in 2023 for your fantasy football teams.
And put that person in the comments section.
My guy was Amon Ross St. Brown.
So I really was big on him.
So that's my person.
I was big on him this year.
He's doing what he needs to do.
So we're going to talk a little bit more about that here in just a moment.
But before that, we're going to talk a little bit about the Thursday night matchup that we have.
And, oh, what a matchup we got going.
We got the Bengals playing the Baltimore Ravens this week, man.
And this is an AFC North showdown that we have been wanting to see on a prime time spot for a minute.
We got a dud of a game last week, so to speak.
But this week, I think we're going to get a nice game.
However, there are some injury concerns.
The Baltimore Ravens are without their left tackle, Ronnie Stanley.
And they're without Marlon Humphreys this week.
And then the Bengals are going to be without Hubbard, one of their DNs.
And obviously, T. Higgins.
That's for fantasy purposes.
They're going to be without big T. Higgins this week.
So there's some players that are going to be missing.
There's going to be issues here and there.
But I still think it's going to be a really good game.
Sage, I want to hear from you.
What are your thoughts on this game for Thursday night?
And then we'll get to Ripper.
And then we'll get to J-Webb.
Get some of his bets for this game.
Yeah.
I actually see this being a huge momentum set for the Ravens.
The Ravens are going to come out.
And I think they're going to win comfortably tonight.
I actually don't see this being a close game.
And a lot of you guys talk about Thursday night not being a quality game.
I think this is like fool's gold.
I think the Ravens are going to come out and they're going to smoke the Bengals, in my opinion.
You write that down.
I'd sit on the Ripper and tip fantasy football space.
So we got another Baltimore versus Detroit situation where they're just going to hand it to them and that's it?
Bro.
That's what I'm saying.
All right.
You heard it right here.
Sage said it.
All right.
So, look.
We're going to put them down for it.
All right.
I see my guy Greenhat came on.
Greenhat.
What's going on, brother?
Oh, go ahead, Sage.
I was going to say, hey, make sure y'all hit that repost and like.
Appreciate y'all.
100%.
100%.
Greenhat, what you got for us, man?
What's up, brother?
Man, it's just another day in paradise, man.
I love it when it's football, especially when it's just one game to watch.
This is not going to be a snooze fest.
I'm so excited for it being Thursday night.
You know, like we're midseason and we're starting to watch some football happening.
You know, implications happening.
And, you know, I'm really excited for both of these teams, man, especially if you're a bad man.
You know, aside from, you know, of course, our fantasy footballs and who we want to play.
But I do have a dilemma.
I'm like, and maybe, you know, I could share with, you know, that, you know, towards the end.
But it's basically on two defenses on who I should play.
And I think I may have to go bargain bin shopping because I don't feel comfortable with either or.
No, go ahead, bro.
Yeah, you got it, man.
All right.
So this is my dilemma.
Obviously, the Dolphins are going to beat the snot bubbles out of out of the Raiders.
And we know that here.
Hold on, man.
Snot bubbles, bro.
The snot bubbles, man.
Okay.
They're going to beat them.
Okay, okay.
Snot bubbles.
Okay, okay.
So we'll go ahead and keep it PG.
But, you know, somebody's going to get spanking.
Somebody's going to get the spanking, you know.
And, you know, I feel bad for the Raiders.
But I think that this is a game that doesn't really bode well for them.
I would like for it to be, you know, maybe them kind of keep it down a little bit.
But I don't think it's going to happen, man.
And then the other one, I got the Philadelphia Eagles, a team that cannot stop a nosebleed.
Like, I mean, man, like, it's going to be atrocious.
I mean, they were kind of somewhat middle of the pack.
But I'm like, man, which of the two am I going to trust?
Am I going to trust the Dolphins, you know, kind of getting held down a little bit, you know, with the Raiders defense?
Because the Raiders defense has actually been pretty decent in fantasy football wise the past two weeks, you know, three weeks.
But it just feels like, man, that's a high-powered offense they're about to go to.
And then I feel like with the Eagles, they are matched up against a team that I think their defense, you know, in Kansas City has kind of kept them in the game and played really well and exceptional.
And their offense may have not been, like, sparking, you know, pretty well.
But we've seen the Eagles secondary, and it seems like we're getting gashed left and right.
So if I had to pick between the two, who should I go with?
So it's between the Eagles and the Raiders?
Yeah, Eagles defense or Raiders D.
All right, man.
That's a tough one.
But I'm going to go with the Eagles defense.
They got a safety.
They got one of their safeties back this week, too.
So I'm going to go with the Eagles defense.
I think that is going to be a situation where it can turn into a shootout.
But I will tell you this.
The Eagles are an opportunistic defense, right?
So that's what you want in fantasy.
The Raiders have been opportunistic these last couple of weeks or last three weeks.
They have been.
But this is a different animal that they're going against in Miami, too.
So they got to not only deal with the cross-country trip.
They got to deal with the humidity over there.
And they got to deal with this offense that's got guys on there that can run 22 miles an hour.
That's a setup for failure for me, man.
I'm out on the Raiders this week.
But I will ask you this, man.
You know, is there any other defenses that are out there that we can look at?
I mean, I'm looking at some defenses right now.
I'm looking at, for instance, I don't know, maybe a Chicago.
Excuse me.
Detroit there.
Or maybe even Houston out there as well.
Houston's been okay.
They've been a little opportunistic.
But they're going against Arizona, too.
Yeah.
So, unfortunately, like, the only thing I have left, like, I mean, we have a 12-man PPR league.
And for some reason, like, the commissioner has made the defense kind of, like, a focal point, which I can't really stand because I don't like a defense acquiring 20 points.
Like, I just don't like it.
You know, but I think what's left out there, like, the next best thing is the Patriots, man.
And I just, man, we've seen this damn thing go, like, spiraling down.
So, like I said, when it comes to bargain bin shopping, like, there's literally maybe, like, 10 defenses left because everybody seems to hold on to two sets.
You know, they have two defenses, you know, just in case.
But, yeah, it's like I said, it's just a bit left.
Yeah, you're not going to play.
Yeah, no.
I mean, those are not trustworthy.
Yeah, so I will go Philadelphia, man, and just kind of hope for the best.
I mean, it's a primetime matchup, so you know that both teams are going to be ready to play.
The thing is this.
I mean, both teams had buys last week.
Kansas City had a buy.
They got a week to get this offense off to the rolling start that they have been trying to get to.
We know Andy Reid's record whenever they come off of a buy.
He's very, very successful.
But I will say, man, I think it's going to be a hard-fought game.
Look for that defensive line of the Eagles to try and get after this Patrick Mahomes offense and the offensive line.
But I think you're kind of in a tough spot, man.
But I think if any of those teams are going to offer me any upside, you know, I would go with the Eagles.
But you know what?
Tua is also prone to making mistakes.
And if he gets pressure, which Max Crosby can get at him, he gets some turnovers here and there, too, man.
So I think you're in a tough spot.
But I would lean slightly, slightly, slightly at the Philadelphia Eagles.
Ripper's back.
Rip, what do you think?
Were you thinking – oh, hold on.
Let me get him added on.
Sorry.
Rip, are you thinking the Philadelphia Eagles or the Las Vegas Raiders for your defense this week?
Hello, Rip?
Yep.
I'm here.
I'm here.
Yeah.
So did you – the Philadelphia Eagles defense versus Kansas City or Raiders versus your Miami Dolphins?
What you got?
I want the – I don't want anything to do with the Raiders defense because, you know, the Dolphins offense is showing what they can do, especially against inferior opponents.
So I would stay away from the Raiders.
I would probably ride, honestly, with the Chiefs defense.
They've been really good all season.
Yeah, I think – I don't think the Chiefs defense was there.
I think it was the Eagles defense.
But, yeah.
Oh, okay, yeah.
I thought it was Eagles or Chiefs in that game.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, yeah.
The Eagles defense is the one he was looking at.
So, yeah.
So that's two for us.
We're going to go to Gene's next.
Gene's, what's your question, bro?
Hey, how are you doing?
We're good, brother.
I got a question.
PPR quarterback.
Jared Goff or Tua?
And I do have St. Brown.
Rip, what do you think on that one?
Tua.
I like the double-up.
I'm going Tua.
Okay, thanks.
It's tough, man, because I got to say Brown, right?
Someone dropped Goff, and I just grabbed him.
I dropped him on his bye week, and I just grabbed him just to have that pairing.
Somebody dropped St. Brown?
No, no, Goff.
Wait, wait, somebody dropped Goff.
Yeah.
Oh, Goff.
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
All right.
I was going to be like, bro, I need to get into your league ASAP.
But, no.
Yeah.
No, so here's the thing.
Here's the thing, right?
I like Jared Goff a lot.
I mean, I really do.
And Tua and Jared Goff, to me, are kind of the same.
But what I'm looking at is this.
That run offense is so – they're clicking on all cylinders right now.
That they can actually go to Chicago and run the ball 30 times and maybe have Jared Goff
pass maybe 15 times, and then that's it.
The game's won.
They don't need to do anything else.
Now, could it become a shootout?
I don't see it becoming a shootout because there's a situation where, you know,
Justin Fields is coming back.
That defense is playing tough.
They're playing good.
But I feel like it might be a situation in the third – end of the third, fourth quarter,
they might be running the hell out of the ball.
That's why I'm not so big on Jared Goff this week.
I feel like for Jared Goff to be relevant – like, I mean, he's relevant in fantasy.
But for him to sneak into my top ten where Tua is right now, he has to – he has to be
in some sort of a shootout.
Tua can get it done without a shootout.
We've seen that easily whenever they beat Denver.
Tua – they just score.
And they just score at will almost.
And, you know, they haven't been scoring as prolifically before their bye, but I feel
like this might be the week that they come back and they get some points on the board,
try to get back to what they were originally doing at the beginning of the season.
Is Devon A-Chain playing?
We don't know yet.
He did have a limited practice yesterday.
I haven't seen the practice report today yet.
But I'm going to go Tua as well just because I feel like they're not going to really need
Jared Goff that much.
Now, Amon Ra's going to do his thing.
Amon Ra always does his thing.
They may not really need to throw the ball too much at the end of – when the game's over.
So that's kind of my thoughts on it.
J-Webb, what do you think about Tua versus Jared Goff?
And then we'll get to you next, Greenhat.
That's a tough one.
I think you're going to see more of an offensive output from the Bears.
So I think they're going to have to keep it – keep their foot on the gas a bit more.
I think the Dolphins are just going to steamroll the Raiders.
I don't really see Aiden O'Connell forcing the Dolphins to have to do a ton.
But they don't – you know, they hung, what, 70 on the Broncos?
And the Broncos weren't doing shit either.
So I think you just go with Tua.
Like, he's got the weapons there.
It's probably the safer bet.
But you can definitely see a situation too where they just run the living hell out of the ball down the Raiders' throats as well.
Yeah, 100%.
100% appreciate that, J-Webb.
And then we're going to come back to J-Webb in just a sec.
But we're going to get Greenhat's hand.
Greenhat, what you got, brother?
Yeah, so this is probably my last question.
Yeah, I thought I was – I know I already asked one.
Bro, you're fine.
Keep going.
You're good, bro.
Yeah.
So obviously, you know, I got, like, a position that, you know, it's my flex.
It's one of my flex open spots.
And I'm kind of, like, torn because on this one right here, this is more like a – like, you know, it's pretty much not really anything special.
Obviously, your flex position, you're either going to put a running back or a receiver, whichever one you feel is going to work out best.
But – so I have, like, four potential, like, guys that I can go with.
And one, obviously, Elijah Moore – or what's his name?
Moore, the guy, the receiver from Cleveland.
And I feel like it's going to take a hit due to the fact of, you know, obviously, Deshaun Watson not playing may hinder his performance a little bit.
But, you know, he's still talented.
You know, so I got him.
I have Quentin Johnson, obviously the third receiver for the Chargers.
I have Jordan Reed, which is a guy that's kind of already starting to see a couple touches in Green Bay.
But it's not reliable, you know.
So, again, keep in mind, this is my last spot, and this is me just trying to find a player on what I think would have the most upsides.
And then my last player would be – I think it's Tyler, the running back from Minnesota that just kind of came in.
Oh, Ty Chandler.
Yeah.
Yeah, Ty Chandler.
Now, for me, I feel like I should probably roll with Ty Chandler.
I don't like that.
But I feel like Quentin Johnson also has upside potential.
So, between those four players, what do you think would have the most upside between all four of them?
Obviously, it's three receivers and then one running back.
Yeah.
No, I definitely like the Ty Chandler one.
They're going against the Denver Broncos, and the Denver Broncos give up points.
They give up the most points to the running back position.
So, I'm going with Ty Chandler.
It is close, though.
I like what I saw from Quentin Johnson last week.
But we got to remember, too, they got Jalen Guy in there, too.
So, he's a good – he's actually one of their deep threat guys.
He got solidified back into the offense last week.
And then Keenan Allen is dealing with a shoulder issue.
But I think he's going to be fine.
He came back last week and played.
I haven't checked his report today, but I think he was limited yesterday, if not.
Or he may have had a day off because he's one of those old veteran guys.
But, you know, Keenan Allen is the guy.
And then, obviously, after that, you got Austin Eckler catching passes.
So, I think Quentin Johnson could be kind of that odd man.
Now, he might get, you know, five, six targets, kind of similar to what he did last week.
But what is he going to do with it?
I like the guy who's going to give me the most volume, the most opportunities.
And I feel like it's Ty Chandler in that situation.
And then I do, though, I do like Jaden Reed.
And here's why I like Jaden Reed.
They're going to have to try to keep up with this Charger team, right?
This Charger team is going to be throwing the ball.
They're going to be up.
And, you know, so there is going to be a scenario where they're going to have to throw the ball.
I just don't trust Jordan Love as much anymore, man.
I'm really starting to lose a lot of trust in him.
And he loves his Romeo Dobbs as well.
Christian Watson, I'm pretty much done with him.
But, again, go on Ty Chandler, man, 100%, bro.
I see Randy's got his hand up.
Randy, what's going on, man?
Nice to see you on the space here.
What you got for us, brother?
What's up, Sage?
Shout out to everybody in the room.
What's up, Randy?
What's up, man?
Got a quick question.
Hey, yo, Randy, I've never told you this, bro, but I freaking dig that freaking Will Ferrell.
Wait, where is that?
What week is that from, bro?
That's right.
You never found it down, man.
Is that Eastbound and down?
You never watched Eastbound and down, too?
I've never seen Eastbound and down, no.
I've seen the righteous gemstones.
I've seen the righteous gemstones, but I haven't seen Eastbound and down.
I need to check that one out.
It's great.
It's great.
Yo, what you got, brother?
I'm actually in our old school standard league.
We start three receivers.
I just made a trade where I acquired Jamar Chase, so now I got to make a decision.
I got one spot for three guys.
The three guys are Amari Cooper, Christian Kirk, and Cortland Sutton.
So, that's basically all I got.
I like Cortland Sutton, bro.
Yo, this Cortland Sutton has been balling out this year, man.
I am really big on Cortland Sutton, and it's so crazy to say that because I am a Cortland
Sutton, like, I don't like the guy.
I've had him in my leagues the last couple years, and he never did anything.
And now, this dude's coming out of nowhere.
He's doing his thing.
Russell Wilson has eyes for him.
So, when Russell Wilson has his number one target, he is going to continue to pepper
that guy with target.
We saw that hell of a catch that he made last week.
This kid, Cortland Sutton, not only is he making the tough catches, he's being targeted.
So, I'm going to go Cortland Sutton out of that.
I can't trust Amari Cooper right now, especially with DTR running the quarterback.
I don't know.
I got to see it, you know?
And then, who was the other guy?
Christian Kirk.
Christian Kirk.
I like Christian Kirk, too, but it's not PPR.
It's a standard league.
So, it's a standard league.
And why are you guys still playing standard?
You guys need to vote that next year.
It's my last one, man.
It's my last one.
It's my last one.
You know, everybody at first was, like, trying to switch over, you know?
But then, now, they're like, hey, man, this is, like, my last standard league.
So, it's kind of like a little antique.
Nobody wants to get with it.
Yeah, bro.
You need to get with the commissioner, bro.
I am the commissioner.
Oh, you're the commissioner.
So, we need to talk, commissioner.
Why are you on the standard league?
Switch that shit up today, bro.
No, I'm just playing.
But, no.
I appreciate that, man.
Yeah, I would play Courtney Sully, man.
He's going to give you the higher upside, bro.
100%.
Appreciate you, bro.
It feels like, I felt, I felt like I was watching the Dave Chappelle pop copy skit.
I am the manager.
I am the manager, B.
Yeah, 100%, bro.
All right.
So, we got CO, or, oh, man, I'm not going to mess this up.
I'm going to try it.
CO Papa.
CO Papa, what's going on, bro?
Uh-oh.
Ripper's back.
Guess who's been Zach?
CO Papa, what you got, bro?
Yeah, you said it right.
What's good?
Um, I'll drop it quick.
Cleveland defense or Jacksonville defense?
Jacksonville plays Tennessee, which I think is dumping, so it feels like it could be a good play.
But, man, Cleveland's the best defense in the league.
They are the best defense in the league, but fantasy-wise, they're okay.
They're middle of the pack.
They get sacks.
They get some turnovers here and there.
I like the opportunistic defense with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Let's get Ripper in here and see what Ripper thinks.
Hey, Ripper, my guy CO Papa, he has Jacksonville Jaguars defense playing Tennessee Titans,
or he has the Cleveland Browns defense this week.
Oh, Ripper.
Oh, no, there he is.
Ripper, who do you think?
So it's between – sorry, I missed the start of this.
You said between Tennessee or the Cleveland defenses?
No, it's between the Cleveland defense or the Jacksonville defense.
Oh, or the Jacksonville defense.
I'm riding Browns defense every time, only because I'm not even worrying about who the opponent is necessarily.
It's just the Browns defense, to me, has been just a must start.
Yeah, they're playing the Pittsburgh Steelers.
I mean, that's going to be a fun one, too.
Even more reason, though, right?
Because Pittsburgh has been outscored or outgained yardage-wise in every single game this season.
So you combine that with the Cleveland defense, and another good day for Cleveland on defense.
Okay.
All right, Steel Papa.
He said Cleveland defense.
I tend to lean more towards the Jacksonville.
I think they're a little bit more opportunistic.
But Cleveland, I mean, I don't think you're going to go wrong either way.
I just like to play the rookie sometimes.
My thing is, man, I get to play against the rookie.
Let's throw something at him that he's never really seen before, or maybe he hasn't seen enough of it in the NFL.
So I like to go against that.
I'm really big on that.
I think the defenses, they try to end.
Another thing, Jacksonville was embarrassed last week, too, by the 49ers.
So they might be ready to try to do something, especially Texans are nipping at their heels.
So I will go Jacksonville Jaguars.
Ripper says Cleveland.
We got J-Web with his hands up.
Let's see if he can break this tie.
J-Web, who do you think?
And then if you have a question or comment, please let me know what you got, bro.
Yeah, I just wanted to weigh on this real quick.
I would go Jacksonville.
You have a much higher chance of a blowout in Jacksonville.
Them being out for blood thing, I think it's 100% true.
But more importantly, with fantasy defenses, you want sacks.
You want fumbles.
You want interceptions.
I think Pittsburgh is going to be a low-scoring game, man.
And they're just going to grind it out.
They're going to just run the living hell out of the ball.
Whereas on the other side, with Jacksonville, you're going to have Levis,
or if he gets benched, they have a backup come in,
having to throw the hell out of it.
And you're just going to have this Jacksonville defense coming at them.
More chances for, like I said, sacks, interceptions, fumble recoveries,
defensive touchdowns, all of those things that get your defense a ton of
fantasy points.
The Browns are the safer bet to get eight or nine fantasy points.
But Jacksonville, I think, has a higher chance of getting you 15-plus.
Yeah, I mean, J-Web said it right.
Rippy said it right.
You can't go wrong with the Cleveland defense, man.
But I just, I go for, on the defenses on fantasy, you want to go for the upside.
You want to get those turnovers.
Hey, if you can get a touchdown, hey, get the touchdown.
And I think that the Jaguars could get that for you, CO Papa.
All right, so we got Ripper.
I want to hear.
Oh, go ahead.
Just thank you.
Appreciate it.
Oh, yeah, no doubt, man.
Ripper, I want to get from you.
We talked a little bit about this.
Um, I want to get your three players that you were thankful for, uh, this year.
Yeah.
Are you, are you still talking?
Are you still talking or is it?
Yeah, I think, I think, I think, I think tip went out, but, uh, I was like, I wasn't
sure if that was me, but no, let's, let's keep it riding.
All right.
So three players tip, um, you put up a great, great post earlier.
It made me think, and, uh, you said, I'm on Ross St.
Brown.
I mean, everybody should be thankful for him.
I'm going to include him in my, in my three that I'm thankful for.
But the first player that I was most thankful for when you said this, when you posted this,
it made me think was Raheem Mostert.
And I said it in a reply to you, one, he's my, he's on my favorite team, but two, he's
overall running back number two, the entire season.
And you picked him over at least a hundred, you know, overall, a hundred, 125 at minimum.
So you got great value.
So I'm very thankful for Raheem Mostert.
And then third, I'm going with Tank Dell.
Tank Dell has been a guy that I was excited for coming into the season.
He's been even better than expected.
I think he's getting better than we expected as the season moves along.
And if you have Tank Dell, your team is probably doing well.
So Tank Dell, Raheem Mostert, and of course, Amon Ross St. Brown, because even with how
good Amon Ross St. Brown is, people still sleep on the fact that he is one of the elite
wide receivers in the NFL.
Yeah.
A hundred percent.
A hundred percent on that one.
Can you guys hear me?
Okay.
Yeah.
Now it's good.
Okay.
Now it's good.
All right.
Cool.
We got you now, bro.
All right.
Appreciate that.
And while we're all right here, go hit that repost and like in the jumbotron for my god
tip.
And if you scroll right three times, we got Rippy's top 10 NFL rankings this week, yo.
Make sure you go give him a repost, man.
I appreciate, you know, everyone appreciate both of them tapping with all of us today.
A hundred percent, man.
So for me, I mean, it's no, it's no, no lie, man.
Amon Ross St. Brown, that's my guy, man.
That's actually one of my favorite players to watch in the NFL, man.
The guy just has got a relentless motor.
He's always ready to get the ball.
He's always, he will run through you.
He'll run past you.
He'll do whatever he can to score, to do whatever he needs to do for his team.
He's a good block.
I just love watching him play.
So Amon Ross, my number one guy that I'm thankful for.
The other guy I'm thankful for on one of my big money leagues is A.J. Brown, man.
This guy has been killing it when he's on the field.
And people cannot, you can't stop him, man.
The connection that Jalen Hurts has with A.J. Brown has been beautiful to watch, man.
And, you know, I went really heavy this year on the zero RB theory.
So, with that being said, I didn't get my first running back in several of my leagues,
but in this particular league, until like the sixth, I think seventh round, actually.
So, I like, this is going to be funny because he has not been the most efficient,
but he's been showing signs of, you know, getting some work done these last couple of weeks,
especially this week, though.
He does have a really tough matchup against San Francisco.
And it's my guy, Rashad White.
This guy has been a PPR monster.
We saw it last year.
Again, he's been doing the same thing this year with the PPR, getting the points.
These last couple of weeks, he's been getting in the, or he's got an end zone,
and he had a game where he had over 100 total yards.
So, I'm really big on Rashad White.
It was tough.
I wanted to pick Keenan Allen, but I was like, man, I already got two wide receivers.
So, but Keenan Allen's been balling out, too.
But I wanted to go Rashad White, man, because this kid has, it's not been pretty.
It's not pretty.
But you know what?
I am thankful for him because if he was my running back one and he wasn't doing anything, man,
my team would be in shambles right now.
But, yeah.
Did you say that was Purdy?
My body.
I couldn't hear you right.
No, I didn't say Purdy.
Uh-uh.
That's funny, though.
Green Hat, what you got for us?
Sean, what up, bro?
Green Hat, what's up?
Yeah, what's up?
So, I would like to give my three of what I'm grateful for.
Yeah, 100%, bro.
Yeah.
Obviously, look, I do a Dynasty League with a group of friends I've done since high school,
which we're pretty damn old at this moment.
We got 18 years into this damn thing.
But, you know, like, man, how the stars really aligned up for me, I guess, you know, in my
Dynasty League, obviously, you have a total of three rounds.
And in my three rounds, I was fortunate to get CJ Strauss in my first round.
And, you know, obviously, I had Trevor Lawrence.
It wasn't a need, but obviously, at this moment, I think I made out pretty damn well because if we had to compare Trevor Lawrence to CJ Strauss, I mean, we see a dramatic jump.
And this is a guy that kind of started, like, already mid, you know, like, midpoint into the first half because I felt like, man, I mean, this guy, he's just unstoppable.
So that was my first pick.
My second pick, you know, which circled around, I did get Tank Dell, which really helped me out.
And I think the third round was the biggest steal of the draft for me, and that was Puka.
So I made out really well with the three guys that I got for my, you know, Dynasty.
See, it's – you're pretty lucky if you just get one guy, you know, out of your draft, especially in the Dynasty League.
But to get three guys that are phenomenal, I mean, who knows what Puka may be.
But right now, he's a, you know, I guess a fantasy, you know, darling.
So I'm going to ride with it, man, and I'm pretty excited, you know, how it landed.
Yeah, man, I like all those, man, especially the CJ Strauss having Trevor Lawrence.
I mean, who would have thought Trevor Lawrence would have had this tough of a season that he's had?
I figured – I knew it would take some time, but I figured by now we would have had at least a couple of blow-up games,
and he is just not doing it, man.
I don't know what's going on.
You know, I know that they had a tough matchup last week against the 49ers.
We'll see what they do this week against the Tennessee Titans.
And Tennessee does, you know, they give up points to the wide receivers and the quarterbacks.
So we'll see.
We'll see if he can do something.
But he's had some easy matchups out there and just laid a dud.
So we'll see about him.
But, yeah, that's awesome.
That's a great list.
Sean, what's going on, man?
I appreciate you being on.
Yeah, what's up, guys?
What's up, fellas?
Yeah, my bad I was late, man.
My kid got into some –
She got into some freaking Vaseline, bro, and was, like, got it all over the place.
So I had to, like, give her a bath and clean up the – man, it was a whole big thing.
But I'm here now, man.
I love it.
I love it.
Yeah, bro.
So I – yeah, I'm a little late.
But, yeah, I'm here now, man, and I appreciate you for having me on as always, bro.
And I see the topic is players we're thankful for.
Yeah, fantasy football, 100%.
What you got?
Oh, man.
There's a lot.
I could say CJ Stroud, David Montgomery, Raheem Mostert, Keenan Allen.
Man, I got some guys, man.
So I'm thankful for most of my guys here, man.
Like, they've been balling out for me all season, man.
And I got A-Chan coming back, too.
Oh, I know I got him coming back, too.
I can't wait, man.
I can't wait to get him back and pair it up with Rashad White that we just talked about.
Actually, Devon, A-Chan, man, like, it's crazy.
I was looking at, I was actually listening to the fantasy footballers.
I don't know if anyone listens to, like, fantasy podcasts or anything.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Awesome.
But, man, they pointed out a good point on yesterday's show where Devon A-Chan, like, he's really only played, like, three games.
And he has more fantasy points than, like, a lot of, like, studs, bro.
Like, they were pointing out, like, Derrick Henry, Tony Pollard, Najee Harris, like, a bunch of, like, guys.
And I was like, what?
Like, seriously?
Like, Ramondre Stevenson.
Like, all these, like, consistent guys, I'm like, wow, that's crazy, bro.
So, I'm excited to have him back, man.
Yeah, it's going to be fun down the stretch, man, with him.
Although, I think Ramondre might be heating up a little bit.
I got a feeling, and his playoff schedule is juicy.
So, if you guys are still able to do some trades out there, and you don't have to give up too much.
But Ramondre is starting to heat up.
But, yeah, I really like LeBron J as well.
Well, Tip.
Ripper, yeah, what you got?
I've got, like, three minutes here before I got to wrap.
And I just wanted to thank everyone for being here, and thank you for putting up with some of my technical difficulties of traveling today.
Shout out to everyone.
The trade deadline, though, Tip, that's right.
Sean made a good point.
You made a good point.
The trade deadline is coming quick.
So, I think that one thing for sure is, depending on your league and the deadline, it's in the next couple of weeks.
Maybe this week, next week.
But we should definitely talk about potential trades or take Q&A around trades next week.
It also is going to coincide with Thanksgiving.
So, looking forward to it, and wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving.
Absolutely.
That's Ripper, guys.
Appreciate him.
He's in New York right now.
He just got out of Grand Central Station.
Please be safe out there, brother.
And safe travels as always, man.
Jay Webb, before we close up shop, I want to give from you some bets for tonight's game.
I want to get, you know, what you're feeling for tonight's game.
Absolutely.
A lot of fun props tonight.
You know, I think the spread and the total, there's the stat going around that Joe Burrow, when he's a dog of more than a touchdown, or more than a field goal, it's like 15 and 2 against the spread.
So, if you want some action there, Bengals plus 4 seemed like the play.
Everyone's all over, like, the primetime unders thing.
So, I'm actually on, I got the over when it was at 43 and a half, now it's at 46.
I still kind of like it at 46, because 47 is like a key number here.
But on the prop side of things, where the most fun is, I like doing, like, small, correlated parlays.
So, for instance, tonight, correlating Joe Mixon's rushing attempts with his rushing yards overs.
Those are both showing value based on the projections that I use.
On the receiving end of things, do something similar with Tyler Boyd.
He's showing value on his receptions over a 4.5 and is receiving yards over a 46.5.
So, I like going that route.
You can get a better number.
And, you know, if he's going to hit his receptions yardage total, he's probably going to do it with, you know, multiple, like, more than 4.5 catches, right?
So, that's kind of what I'm looking at this evening.
I would say, if you like betting NFL props, the earlier you can do it in the day, and this is a thing that I don't think a lot of people think about,
the earlier in the day you can do it, the better, especially if you want to bet overs.
If you like to bet the unders on these props, wait until, like, an hour before kickoff.
Because right now is when people are getting home from work, they're jumping on their apps,
they're putting in their over bets on the yards, and those numbers are getting, like, steamed up like crazy.
And it may not seem like a bunch, but, you know, Joe Burrow's passing yardage prop is up, like, 6, 7 yards from this morning.
And that's significant in games like this, where, like, every yard counts.
So, that's one tip I have for people who are, you know, getting into betting props, which is an absolute blast.
Like, you know, same game parlay, all that shit, is bet overs early in the day and bet unders closer to kickoff time.
See, I love that.
See, I never even thought of anything like that when it comes to betting.
So, that's perfect, man.
And that's J-Web.
J-Web, for the people in the audience, just some of the spaces that you'll be doing,
and some of the other content that you create out there as well, so that way they can follow you.
No, I appreciate it.
Yeah, I put out, I do shows Monday night and Thursday night before the primetime games,
and then Sunday morning, beginning at 10 a.m. Eastern, about an hour and a half,
getting ready for all the things that are going, you know, looking at DFS, betting, season-long fantasy.
I have a space tonight.
We're actually doing a bit of a giveaway.
I'm trying to give people some money.
So, I just pinned it to the top.
If anyone wants to come and hang out, we're going to be doing our Thursday night space,
building out a same-game parlay there.
If it hits, I'm giving 50% of the profit away to people in the audience.
I've been on a bit of a heater lately with same-game parlay,
so I want to try to keep it running and, you know, give some other people some cash in the process as well.
So, that's what I've been doing, and, yeah, man, it's fun.
I appreciate everybody who swings by, and Tip, definitely appreciate all the support from you, my man.
Absolutely, J-Web.
So, I'm Tip Major, guys, and then, obviously, you heard from Ripper as well.
We do this show every Thursday.
It's typically or usually at 5 o'clock Central Standard Time.
We had to switch some things up because Rippy's traveling, but we'll be back.
Now, next week, though, we'll post it out there.
We might not do it on Thanksgiving because we want you guys to enjoy your family, friends,
watch some football all day.
We don't want to be in the middle of you guys watching football and talking.
We want to watch it.
So, we might try to do something on Wednesday.
I'll get with Ripper, see what his schedule's like.
If not, man, you guys all have a happy, safe Thanksgiving, and we'll be back the following week.
But I want to, before we go, I want to talk about my guy, Royce, Royce down there with the Primetime Sports Mix.
I'm telling you guys, every Friday night, we get it on and popping, and it sometimes can go six hours, eight hours.
It goes along, and we talk all of the games of the slate for football.
We talk basketball.
We talk all sports.
We have fun.
Last week, we talked veterans.
We had, you know, an extension of veterans, or excuse me, the veterans episode where we had a bunch of veterans come on the spaces
and, you know, give their stories, and a lot of it was fun.
A lot of it was, you know, heartfelt.
But, man, we always have such a fun time on there.
So, show up tomorrow at 10 o'clock Central Standard Time for my guy, Royce, with the Primetime Sports Fix.
Shout out to my guy, Randy.
Shout out to Leonard, Jeans, Gamecock, James, Brianna, John, Seal Papa, Sean, Green Hat.
Shout out to all you guys.
Sam, what's up?
I see you in this.
Shout out to you.
And then Ed Mack.
And then, obviously, De Niro.
And, of course, we're on the Saged Up Network.
Man, look, guys.
I'm on these spaces every day that there is NFL football.
So, if you were on Thursday nights, I do a show with the Ripper.
I do a show immediately after that.
This one is going to be at 6 o'clock Central Standard Time with the sports affiliation.
And I also do Monday night shows with the Bob Harris of the football diehards, guys.
And if you guys don't know who Bob Harris is, first of all, get to know who that guy is because he is fantasy royalty when it comes to fantasy football.
So, we do a space together.
And then, on Sunday mornings, go listen to J-Web's space.
And then, after J-Web's space, come listen to mine because I'm on after J-Web.
And we basically get the last-minute sit starts, injury lineups, all sorts of stuff going on there.
And we do rapid fire.
We try to answer all the questions for you guys.
But that's all I got for today.
Like I said, in about an hour and five minutes, I'll be back on these spaces.
With the sports affiliation.
So, if you see my face and you see that purple ring around it, click on there and say what's up to your boy.
And then, you know, we'll get you on and try to get questions answered for you on the sports affiliation as well.
But before I go, before I go, I do want to tell you guys as well.
I just started working with High Point content creation team.
That's, I'm actually their Raiders correspondent.
I'm working, it's with Des Bryant and Luke Sawhook.
We all know who Des Bryant is, man.
And it's really cool to be on there.
We are also going to start doing spaces as well.
They're getting the scheduling up.
But I know for sure we will have a space next Monday.
So, I'll keep an eye out for that as well.
But this is Tip.
I'm signing out.
Peace.
It's been an awesome show, guys.
Love all you guys.
And blessings to all you.
