Summary

Marcas Grant and Michael F. Florio are back for a new edition of the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast to recap all the action from Week 11! The hosts start with fantasy headlines: Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields left Sunday’s game early with a rib injury and was replaced by Andy Dalton; Dallas Cowboys receiver CeeDee Lamb suffered a concussion and his status for Thursday is in question; and a couple of running backs had monster games this weekend. After the news, Marcas and Michael review lessons they learned in Week 11, looking at a couple players on opposite trajectories this season. Then, the hosts review the week’s top performers and their biggest disappointments, including a weird game between the Titans and Texans. Next, the experts identify players to trade away and others to dangle as trade bait before answering trade questions from the listeners submitted on Twitter. Later, Marcas and Michael cover the top waiver wire targets for Week 12, and finally, we wrap up the show previewing the Monday Night Football matchup between the New York Giants and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

0:14.2	What is up?
0:15.5	Welcome to another edition of the NFL fantasy football show.
0:18.5	It's me, your man, M.G. Marcus Grant.
0:20.5	Still fully vaccinated. Still dodging variants like Neo in The Matrix. As always, joined by producer Justin and the specialist cast of dozens that help us put on this show. And joined on screen here, as always, by my pal, Michael F. Florio. And I guess it was sort of a mixed week for you. Like a lot of your calls went right, but your football team went sideways. So I don't know how are you feeling on this Monday.
0:42.3	For fantasy purposes, I'm feeling really good. It was a fun week. One of the more fun weeks I've had this season. But yeah, man, the bills just can't seem to get out of their way. I still believe in them. But, man, I thought they were going to be a powerhouse this year, and they've been anything but. Well, now they wake up on Monday morning, and they're staring up at the Patriots. It's like, it's like Groundhog Day again, right? I hate this so much. I would rather it be the Jets or the Dolphins or any team ahead of the bill. It's the Patriots. This feels like the last two decades of my life. I mean, really, it just, it never seems to end. It's like the Patriots took a sabbatical. And now they're back again. If it makes you feel any better, I think most of the football watching nation sort of feels like the bills too. Like,
1:27.6	really? We're doing this again. Ugh, whatever. Big show for you, as we always have on this Monday.
1:34.8	A few of the things we will touch on. Is Justin Jefferson a first round pick in your 22 drafts?
1:41.0	We're taking some of your trade dilemmas because the trade deadline is coming this week

1:50.3	Tonight, it is the Giants heading down to Tampa to take on the Buccaneers.
1:55.0	But let's get started as we always do with some fantasy headlines.
2:00.5	And we'll start with the Chicago quarterbacking situation.
2:03.9	Justin Fields left Sunday's game against the Ravens with a rib injury.
2:09.1	Now, right now they are saying it looks like bruised ribs.
2:12.3	I don't believe there's anything broken.
2:14.0	At least those are the early reports.
2:15.9	But there are some questions as to whether he is going to be good to go for the Bears game
2:20.7	on Thursday against the Detroit Lions.
2:23.5	That's on Thanksgiving.
2:24.7	So if it is indeed Andy Dalton going against the Lions, I mean, Florio on paper, it is a very good
