Summary

Congratulations if you are lucky enough to be in your fantasy championship game! Scott Pianowski and Andy Behrens are here to help you bring home the title belt. THE target this week should be Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. Pick up the rookie even if it’s just to stash him on your bench. Scott and Andy open up the running back pickups to players over 50% owned for the first time all season. Should you target Jeff Wilson, Le’Veon Bell, or Tony Pollard? We have fewer options for the wide receiver and tight end positions but the guys have you covered there as well.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

0:21.9

Oh, do you know what satisfied me today?

0:24.3

Well, I'll tell you, Scott, I've actually, I've got some dynasty attachment to the Jacksonville

0:29.0

offense, which may have seemed like a questionable decision two or three days ago.

But it is looking better today because the Jaguars have taken the lead in the, in a race to the

bottom to draft Trevor Lawrence because the Jets pulled off an unimaginable win this past weekend.

I'm feeling pretty good about all these DJ Chark and James Robinson shares. Jets fans probably

0:51.6

have to be sick. I haven't checked in yet with our mutual friend,

0:54.4

Mike Salfino, hope he's doing okay. Yeah, man, what a, what a stomach punch. And there's

0:59.8

nothing fluky about that Jets win. They were the better team for three hours. They have this

1:04.9

crazy thing where they've scored on their first drive, what is like, maybe eight weeks in a row or something like that. It's like eight weeks now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Usually it's like Adam Gase has a really great game playing for the first quarter and then

1:25.5

against me, but I thought the Rams defense was like,

1:27.5

I already had 15 points in the bank.

1:29.3

We've talked about it.

1:30.9

I've had the Rams defense and the Browns defense like, you know, it's kind of a pain in

1:36.6

the ass, right, to carry two defenses for like a month.
