| 0:00.0 | Some tough lineup decisions to make here in week 14 as we get ready for the fantasy postseason. |
| 0:08.9 | Let's get in there right now on fantasy football today in five. |
| 0:12.3 | What's going on everybody? |
| 0:13.4 | Welcome to the show. |
| 0:14.3 | We got your Sunday morning update for you and there's a lot to talk about Adam Beazer and Heath Cummings here. |
| 0:19.0 | Where else would we start than the detroit |
| 0:21.0 | lion's running back to know diont swift and he might go on i r and know jamaul williams today |
| 0:26.8 | what does it look like who is your favorite lion's running back heath i really hope that you |
| 0:32.0 | don't have to start a lion's running back or a jets running back or a texans running back or a |
| 0:36.5 | 49 like there's a whole bunch of teams that the bills, the Panthers, that you don't have to start these guys. But if I had to choose one, I think I'm going to go with Jemar Jefferson just because I know Godwinigua Bucke is going to probably play more on passing downs and in the hurry up. But I think Jefferson's going to get a lot more touches. And most weeks, that's what I'm going to bet on. But I've got these guys back to back in both formats right around RB 35, somewhere between 30 and 35. Again, they're flexes. They are not guys that I want to start. And there's a high degree of uncertainty. Have you told me that Jefferson got 15 touches in this game and Iguibouque got five, I'd believe it. Flip it around, I would still believe it. You mentioned a lot of teams there that you don't want to start a running back. You said the Jets, the, who else did you say, the Texans? Bill's 49ers. Okay, we'll get to the 49ers in a second. |
| 1:27.6 | You said the Panthers, but right now Chuba Hubbard's actually looking okay compared |
| 1:32.0 | to some of these other options. |
| 1:33.1 | I mean, I know you're not big on Chuba Hubbard, but I would much rather start him than |
| 1:37.3 | Jamar Jefferson or Jets running back or something like that. |
| 1:40.9 | Yeah, and I think that just depends on how much you value the apparent change in his |
| 1:48.8 | role since Amir Abdullah got acclimated to the team. Even before Christian McCaffrey came back, |
| 1:54.8 | Chuba Hubbard's snaps changed quite a bit once Abdullah joined the team. And I'm just, |
| 2:00.5 | I'm concerned that Hubbard doesn't catch a pass and that Cam Newton |
| 2:04.5 | scores the rushing touchdown. |
| 2:06.3 | And so that's why I don't like Hubbard as much. |
| 2:08.4 | Amongst these backup running backs, I have him projected for fewer of the high value touches |
| 2:13.0 | than the other guys. |
