Summary

Liz Loza and Matt Harmon are back with a special Wednesday edition of the fantasy football podcast, ahead of the turkey apocalypse otherwise known as Thanksgiving![Play in Yahoo’s NFL $200K Baller. $10 entry fee and $20K to first place]But Thanksgiving is on Thursday, how about that you-know-what whoopin’ the Ravens put on the Rams on Monday night? Liz & Matt gush about Lamar, lament the Rams & preview the NFC West matchup between the Rams & Cardinals later in the week. Are we sure Arizona is the worst team in the division? (05:00)Back to the holiday spirit, our experts run through all the Turkey Day action, starting with ... ugh ... Bears vs. Lions. In the event that the questionable Jeff Driskel can’t take the field on Thursday, his backup is, and this is not a mistake, David Blough. Blerg. Is there anything positive to take away from this matchup. Our experts try to find the marshmallows in this rotten bowl of sweet potatoes. (09:05)They then move on to Buffalo vs. Dallas in what might be the most interesting matchup of the holiday. Both teams have been criticized for being weak against squads over .500. Which team will silence the doubters on Thursday? (12:01)Finally, our football dinner ends with a dessert of New Orleans vs. Atlanta. Can New Orleans prove their surprising loss to the dirty birds two weeks ago was just an aberration? Or will this flightless Falcons team put up one last fight against a division rival before they pack it in for the season? (19:03)After the Turkey Day discussion, Liz and Matt look towards the weekend and preview each game from the remainder of Week 13 and tell you the one thing you should look for in each game.

0:00.0	Hi, Reach at Yahoo Fantasy Football Podcast. This is Liz.
0:05.2	And Matt.
0:05.9	And the Rams got pantsed on Monday night.
0:08.1	Ooh, hate to see it. Thursday is Turkey Day. We'll take you through the three-course meal.
0:12.6	Three courses, and we'll preview the rest of the Week 13 Sunday slate.
0:16.6	That's it. Go listen.
0:23.3	Hello and welcome to a Thanksgiving edition of the Yahoo Fantasy Football podcast.
0:28.6	I'm Liz Loza. We've got Matt Harmon, Ragu, Brett, the whole gang here.
0:34.2	A little early, we're recording on Tuesday, so we're going to do something we don't normally do, which is recap the Monday night game, especially since it was here in Los Angeles.
0:42.3	Wasn't favorable for the Rams, though. I got trounced by the Ravens.

1:11.0	like different sports. And it's just crazy to think where these two teams were like a year and
1:17.2	half ago at this point. You know, Joe Flacco is starting for the Ravens and the Rams are one of the
1:21.9	best teams in the NFL. And now we're here. Well, it feels like at least excitement-wise, definitely not scheme-wise,
1:30.5	but excitement-wise, the Ravens are the Rams of last year or maybe the year before. Yeah,
1:36.7	intrigue. And in terms of like a team that's totally revamped itself. Hard to figure out on a
1:41.5	week-to-week basis. Even though you know, I think what's interesting about the Ravens is you know what they want to do and yet nobody's been able to stop them from doing it.
