Welcome back. It's Beyond the Box Score. I'm Dan Schneier. That's Jacob Gibbs.

0:17.6

And I'm very, very excited. Jacob, I've been thinking about today's episode, the last 24 hours

0:22.6

when I knew what we were doing on today's episode. It's exciting times. It's week 12 in your fantasy

0:27.8

football season, the nitty gritty grind, the playoffs are on the way. You've hopefully positioned

0:32.1

yourselves to be in position to make the playoffs and win the playoffs. And we've got players that

0:36.6

we love to ride the rest of the season. These are our guys. These are the flag plants coming up. I got to watch a lot of tape on these players this past, what, 24 hours. And I'm very excited to talk about them today, Jacob. Are you excited for today's show? Yeah, I'm excited, man. Let's go. Let's go. League winners. The people love it. The people have told us, at least one person has told us that we talk about league winners too much. There's no such thing. We want to win some leagues, right? That's what we're doing. That's what we've been here for the past two months, three months, however long you've been here. Some of us have been here since freaking April or whatever locked in for this very moment so we can win some leagues.

1:18.1

So that's what we're going to do today.

1:19.8

And we'll be talking a lot of schedule.

1:21.2

Fantasy football schedule is everything when it comes to winning your leagues down the stretch.

1:25.0

I can think of some of my best trades in fantasy football history. We're right at the deadline, Jacob, where I snagged value on a player whose schedule sent me in that direction. So I'm going to get into a few of those players today with you. We're going to talk about a lot of players. Mr. Dome game. Mr. Dome Game, the chat is calling him. Give me a weather-controlled environment for fantasy football, and I will take it any day. But I'm very, very excited. Me too. All right. Yeah, we're also going to do flag plants today. So at the beginning of the season, Dan and I each picked one player that we thought would be a league winner. For Dan, it was George Pickens. that's obviously feeling great after last night's game. For me, it was Rashi Rice.

2:04.8

Maybe that we thought would be a league winner. For Dan, it was George Pickens. That's obviously feeling great after last night's game.

2:03.0

For me, it was Rashi Rice.

2:04.7

Maybe not feeling quite so great after a match against Denver, but we'll be fine, though.

2:09.1

We'll see.

2:09.7

We'll see how it shapes up rest of the season.

2:12.9

So we're going to give you 15 players that we have identified as league winners at this point

2:19.2

this season looking at the rest of season schedule for some of y'all you've got you know

2:24.2

Josh Jacobs problems Drake London problems whatever it may be like these are players you might

2:30.8

be able to get on waiver wires you might be able to trade for so we're going to detail each of those we're going to avoid some of the players that might be able to get on waiver wires. You might be able to trade for.

2:52.5

So we're going to detail each of those. We're going to avoid some of the players that we've already talked about a lot. As a quick update, I still feel really good about the Buccaneers. I do have a tweet to show real quick. So I still feel good about the Bucks. The rest of season's schedule is really, really nice. that's why I've been outlining them all along the way.

3:24.6

Of course, it's like, when are we going to get Bucky Irving? When are we going to get the Baker Mayfield of old? You know? It hasn't quite been there this year, which is what my tweet is about here. I will say I was really encouraged with how the offensive line played in this last game. That was a big part of Sean Tucker doing what he did. Obviously, he did some stuff on his own, too. Don't want to take anything away from Sean Tucker. But the line has been getting healthier, and I think that's a big thing. If we can get everything back together, then you're still feeling good about it. But here's the tweet. So I mentioned on Monday show that Davis Mills has the only two games of 200 or more

3:30.7

catchable air yards for a Houston Texans quarterback this year.
