0:19.0

Welcome to the NFL fantasy football show.

It's me, your man, M.G. Marcus Grant,

Matt Okada's going to stop by with his top waiver-wire targets for the week.

0:30.9

But first, we're taking some of your questions with the fantasy playoffs upon us.

0:38.3

Let's get to some of your questions that you sent to us at NFL fantasy on Twitter.

0:43.6

And the first one comes from Sean, who asks, do I start Brock Purdy or Lamar Jackson

0:49.7

next week?

0:50.7

Two top quarterbacks who are facing each other going against very good defenses. What do you do here? That is the final game of the week too next week on Christmas night. Ask me again later in the week. But as of right now, I'm leaning Lamar because two tough defenses, Lamar gives you points with his legs. But can anyone slow down that 49ers off? I'll probably go Purdy, actually.

1:12.1

Yeah, I was going to say, I think I'm going to go Purdy. He's not going to run, obviously,

1:14.9

as much as Lamar, but the way he's spreading the ball out, four touchdown passes, so many

1:20.9

weapons there. I think top to bottom, the nineer offense is more stacked than the Ravens. So I'm

1:25.1

going to go to Brock Purdy there. Our next one comes

1:28.0

from Coach Tony, who asks Justin Fields against the Cardinals or Jordan Love against the Panthers next week. I'm going to go with Justin Fields there. Not only will Fields get it done on the ground. He'll also throw the ball. The Cardinals defense is very, very porous right now. But Jordan Love, I think the Packers could run on the Panthers in this one.

1:46.3

I do think the Packers can run.

1:47.7

I actually like Aaron Jones a lot for the Packers, which maybe means not so much Jordan Love. I'm going Justin Fields all the way against Arizona. Next one from Seth wants to know, Baker, who we just talked about, or Kyler versus the Bears this week. Is it crazy to say Baker? No. No? The Bears' defense deserves credit. They have been playing awesome the last six, seven weeks. And so of the two Oklahoma quarterbacks here, I might go with the first one that won the Heisman. Yeah, I think I'm going Baker-Mayfield against the Jaguars. I like him as a sleeper this week. I was worried about Joe Flacco against the Bears. He actually had 374 yards and a couple touchdowns, but he also threw three picks. So I like Baker more. This one from Jason is Devin Singletary startable now. It looks that way. It's been back and forth with this backfield, but he dominated volume yesterday. Damian Pierce is a waiver wire guy now. It looks that way. It's been back and forth with this backfield, but he dominated volume yesterday.

2:36.0

Damien Pierce is a waiver wire guy now. Singletary, there's always a little volatility because what if the goal on carry goes to Pierce, but I think you could start him. Yeah, I guess you could start him in deeper leagues. I'm not excited about it because he can very go back, very well go back to giving you like 40 yards next week or something like that. So we'll see. But for now, he's startable.
