Welcome back, everybody, to the Football Guys Daily Update.

You give us 10 minutes and we give you everything you need to know to make you the most informed fantasy football player in your league.

I'm Mike Dempsey along with football guys own Bob Harris.

Bob, we have a lot to dig into as we look ahead towards week 15 and the fantasy playoffs.

Let's start with Thursday night football with the Buccaneers. Mike Evans,

they say he could return this week. And if not, then Sunday, December 21st would be realistic.

That sounds like, you know, not that sure. And if you're not that sure if he can play, if he does

play, should we as fantasy managers be

trusting him probably not i mean we've been talking just in general the passing attack mike

we've been talking about a mecca abuka falling short he's only hit double digit scoring once

since week five i kept asking myself what is behind that and our our football guy colleague, Jason Wood, pointed it out yesterday.

Baker Mayfield might be the issue.

He's been quarterback 30 since week eight.

Tyler Shuck, Gino Smith, Bryce Young, all those guys have outperformed to Mayfield's

12.8 points per game over that span.

So I'm going to be mindful of that as I assess and compare my options before I roll Evans out,

whether it's Thursday night or next week or beyond.

And maybe I just give this passing attack a little time, like until week 17 when they get

a really favorable matchup against the dolphins.

It's been tough sledding for them.

Yeah.

And Joe McMillan could also return as soon as this Thursday and I had against Atlanta, Bob.
