| 0:00.0 | This is an I-Heart podcast. |
| 0:02.6 | Guaranteed Human. |
| 0:17.7 | What's up? You got that base in your ear. |
| 0:19.7 | You know it's time for the Starnem-Sit-M show. Welcome, everybody. My name is Marcus Grant. His name is Michael F. Gloria. We are here to talk about the startum sit. I mean, it's in the title of the show, the Startum Sitem Show. We're going to tell you who to start and who to sit. If you want the whole list, though, Michael, he puts it together every single week. You can read it on the line at |
| 0:38.5 | NFL.com slash start sit. These are not suggestions. These are not guidelines. These are hard and fast |
| 0:44.0 | facts of guys who are going to ball out and maybe not ball out. That's right. I mean, because |
| 0:47.6 | everyone, no one ever, no one ever doubts anything you write. And no one ever gets mad if one of the |
| 0:53.8 | calls does not go according to plan. Never once in the history of this article has ever happened. No, of course not, because people who play fantasy football are calm rational types who never fly off the handle at anything ever possibly. So still the cup on the show. Of course, we're going to give you all the top starts and sits of week six. We're going to tell you who is going to pile up the points. And our boy LQ, Lequan Jones, will be back to give you the top five players to avoid this |
| 1:16.2 | week. So let's get started at the quarterback position. We got your top starts and sits for the week. |
| 1:22.6 | Mike, take us through who you have. Justin Fields, Kirk Cousins, and Joe Burrow all starts this week as is Brock Purdy. |
| 1:30.1 | I think Brock Purdy has proven to just be match-a-proof at this point. My sits, Jared Goff, because |
| 1:35.6 | as Adam Rank would say, he is an indoor cat. Sam Hal, just a tough matchup against the Falcons, |
| 1:41.7 | and then Derek Carr. The Texans are a very tough secondary. Take those indoor cats outside. They get confused, disoriented and don't know really what to do. So let's go through some of these. Let's start with Justin Fields. The Bears finally get off the Schneide last week, get a win. But even before that, the offense was starting to turn a corner. And this one against the Minnesota Vikings has the makings of a potential track meet. Yeah, through three weeks, Justin Fields was not a top 20 fantasy quarterback. Now he's |
| 2:06.8 | the QB3 on the season. That's how good he's been in the last two weeks. 617 passing yards, |
| 2:11.9 | eight touchdown, 61 fantasy points in that span alone. And the scary part is he hasn't really started running just |
| 2:20.0 | yet. And we know that that is always a threat. Plus, the Vikings have allowed the 10th most yards, |
| 2:25.2 | fifth most touchdowns through the air this season. And I think this is going to be a high |
| 2:30.0 | scoring matchup between two one and four teams. We are in October, which means Justin Fields starts to score more points. You know, the similarity between Justin Fields and Billy Joe Armstrong is that they both wake up when September ends. See, because Green Day. Anyway, we're just going to move on to the next quarterback, Joe Burrow, who a couple weeks ago, we weren't sure what to do with him. The calf muscle looked like an issue. He wasn't scoring a lot of fantasy points. |
| 2:52.0 | Then last week he goes berserk against the Cardinals. So we're cool now. Yeah, I said to take a wait and see approach with Joe Burrow and the internet or some of the internet was not very happy with that last week. But I kept saying once Joe Burrow looks like a healthy Joe Burrow again, |
| 3:08.9 | then we could get back to starting him. And he looked healthy last week. It wasn't just the fact |
| 3:13.2 | that he threw for over 300 yards and three scores and scored 24 fantasy points. I love that |
| 3:19.3 | he was scrambling. He was able to avoid pressure with his legs. It looked the healthiest Joe Burrow has looked all year. |
