The podcast hosts, Danny Hyves, Danny Kelly, and Craig Coral, deliver a detailed fantasy football waiver wire analysis following Week 1, using a fun trivia format to resolve player picks. They emphasize that while early-season drafts set the foundation, waivers can be pivotal for long-term success. Kaelin Black is highlighted as the top running back pickup due to his consistent performance and the potential for increased workload if Christian McCaffrey is injured or limited. For wide receivers, Devon White stands out with a strong game under the Saints’ high-volume offense, making him a top-tier addition. The hosts also discuss other waiver options, including Caleb Douglas of the Dolphins, Mac Collins of the Patriots, and Pat Frymer of the Cowboys as a high-upside tight end with a proven track record of receiving targets. The episode underscores the importance of identifying players with realistic upside, especially in deeper leagues where injuries or shifts in offensive schemes can create opportunities. Trivia segments are used not only for entertainment but to create engaging, memorable moments that highlight the unpredictability of fantasy football. The hosts also touch on broader topics like fantasy football scoring rules—arguing that fumble recoveries should count as points—and the emotional toll of early-season disappointment. Ultimately, the episode serves as both a strategic guide and a lighthearted reminder that fantasy football is as much about mental resilience as it is about analytics. The discussion wraps with a strong emphasis on monitoring key matchups and emerging players, especially in the waiver wire, to build a resilient and adaptable roster.
Welcome to the Ring or Fantasy football show, my name is Danny Hyves, and I'm joined by Danny Kelly and Craig Coral back in. Today, we are going over all the must-add players. After week one, entry week two, we're going to go through. Trivia style? Trivia's back, baby, DK, you excited? I cannot wait. This is the best thing that we do because it makes us look like absolute morons. How much does a cloud weigh? You'd think zero is what I would say. You'd think that we look like morons enough trying to get fantasy football advice and we thought, "No, let's raise the ante," and answer questions about literally any subject in the world. So we're going to go through that, and again, your draft is kind of the beginning of the season, but realistically, titles can be won on waivers sometimes. That's right. Just like that sometimes. So we're going to help you. We're going to help you guys. You're not doing great. You alright there, bud? Coker. Coker's in a boot. God. We're going to go through waivers. But first, we're going to take a conveniently timed advertising break. This episode is presented by Verizon. Let me tell you all about Verizon's new simplicity plan. You get one plan, one price, just $30 a line per month, even for a single line. So while everyone is running four trade analyzers before offering a backup tight end, Verizon said one plan, one price. Sometimes the simplest move is the best one, like the simplicity plan. Head to Verizon.com today. For new customers who switched to Verizon, $30 per line includes auto pay and switch discount. Additional taxes, fees, and terms apply. Do you guys think that it's better to have a good long season or to just feel like feel good about your team after one week? That. Like the depth of despair, I feel about some of my teams after one week is arguably worse than just like not winning a championship. I have a remarkable tendency to begin every season one in three. It's like a thing in my league. And then I claw back every year, but I'm always one in three. It's so depressing. I, something about the nature of winning. This is going to sound like a brag, but it's not. It's the disease of the mind. Okay. That's how much traders alley league and I like you think I'd be happy. I've won that league three of four years. Yeah. I think I think about taking Matthew Golden over Luther Bird and 12 times more often than I think about winning the league. Yeah. I literally just get depressed that I don't have Luther Bird and I have to remind myself that I actually am the reigning champion. You're actually too literally too busy winning. And I actually, the championship does not offset. I actually have to manually remind myself that I won the league because I just get really sad every time to see Matthew Golden. That's torture. People are weird. I think my thing with what I was talking about is when I, after all the build up, all the offseason, the draft, you feel so good. You're like, masturbating to your team. It feels so good. Like your team is awesome. And then the actual football hits and week one in your team is absolute dog shit. I don't know if there's anything worse. That's like, I draw fucking ways to do this entire summer. You guys, I do a thing. I have like a weird superstition that doesn't work. It's more just like a fear. It's like living in an ignorant bliss where I don't check the score of my fantasy match up until after the morning games. Oh, I do the same thing. Yeah. I have a time. I do it at half time of the first lady. Because I just want to live it with the idea that maybe I'm winning the first, the first half of the, are we, is this in the show, this time of show, right? Or is it? Maybe. I don't know. Maybe the first half, I think it's very dangerous to check your teams because you'll start panicking of all the zeros. And sometimes it's like, they didn't even move the ball yet. You know what I mean? Sometimes it'll be like the second quarter and like, they've had one drive. It's fine. There's just nothing worse than it's like 11, 45 Pacific and I check my match up and I'm down like 45 to 11 and I'm like, well, my all days ruined, so I just don't check. Yeah. Yeah. That's smart. Honestly. Anyway, we can do the waivers now. We can go back in. We're all right. I think we keep that. I think we're in. I think yeah, sure. All right. So let's get into waivers now. So here's how this works. We're going to go position to a position and we're just going to give our top pick to add off of waivers from that position. So our top running back or top receiver, a top tight end, et cetera. But only one of us gets the player like waivers in your league. So we're going to do a little trivia tie breaker to see who gets the player and the losers have to pick somebody else. So it's not that complicated. You will figure it out as we go along. I promise emails that ring your fantasy football gmail.com if you want to send us trivia. It has to be some kind of amount, the answer so we can be wrong and order closest to the pin style. So email us ring your fantasy football gmail.com for trivia and also a fantasy courts if you want those two. So email us those without further ado, DK Danny Kelly with dark night. Who's your number one running back to add after week one and why is it Kaelin Black for the 49ers? It is Kaelin Black for the 49ers because he played 43% of the staffs had 14 carries for 65 yards. And importantly, he looked pretty good doing it. I think there was a much more dramatic split between Kaelin Black and Christian McCaffrey in week one than anyone was expecting. So this is something to monitor. I don't know if it's going to last forever. Maybe it was just that, you know, after the game, Cal Shannon said that Christian McCaffrey was having cramps during the game. So that might have contributed to this. I think it's probably more likely that we're just going to see a bigger split this year because they want to give Christian McCaffrey a break and not give him like 400 touches. So I think Kaelin Black is the number one pickup on the waiver wire this week. I agree. He's the only guy I would actually consider dropping somebody on my team for at the running back position this week. Yeah. Completely agree because it's the outtouch McCaffrey. Even assuming McCaffrey, it was just cramps. I think Kyle Shannon usually red shirts these rookies and the fact that I'm on the ground. Not if you add in catches, but yes. Fair enough. Very good point. But he, the fact that it's the combination of there's a chance Kaelin Black just plays decently, like an amount. And even if he doesn't play that if Christian McCaffrey gets hurt after leading the NFL and touches last season, it seems like Kaelin Black would be the lead guy. Maybe it's just because Jordan James broke his ribs. But I think you just, when the nine, when there's a nineers running back that comes out of nowhere that might just get playing time if he gives to add them. So, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Kaelin Black. Also, he played the, he looked good. I don't think he has any elite trait, but he just seems competent. He can run uphill and he seems to know it is set up blocks, which frankly is a lot of working in Kaelin system is being decisive and knowing how to actually set up blocks when there was well blocked. And so I thought he did what his job was and he got the yards that they was blocked for him, which is kind of the whole thing. Also, they play my, I mean, next week, so it's a chance, honestly, please garbage time next week and reverse my, I mean, anyway, so I think there's a huge gap between him and anyone else. Totally agree. Yeah. All right. So is it a, oh, yeah. Is it time? I almost forgot. It's been so long. I feel caught naked right now. I have to kind of get back into the swing of things. All right. Week two waivers. It's time to get things going that the trivia showdown is here. It is time for the Kaelin Black. Showdown time. There it is. There's the old gong. Bang. Okay. Trivia. We're going to keep track of trivia. Yes. We don't have, do we have anything for the end of this season? Winners, losers, no punishments, no rewards. Is that, is that accurate? I, so we've always done, we could think of one now. Yeah. Well, maybe like you have to eat like 76 hot dogs in a week or something if you get lost. Well, I know you want to do that. Yeah. No, okay. That's a reasonable punishment. You're right. If we could draft our punishments, this is, this is why I was like, we don't need it. That was a lot. I think the award over punishment, last in trivia, whatever. If you get first in trivia, it's, it's the hardest thing in the world to do is ever see your name next to first in trivia. If you go to a bar, like you're going up against pros, like I haven't gotten better than fifth at in trivia night, it's hard out there. So if you win, well, well, maybe the other two will get you a gift card. I don't know. There we go. Emails, ideas for rewards and/or punishments for trivia. Who won last year, Craig? I don't know. Me or Hyphen, I think. So it wasn't me. That's what I remember as well. You did not win. Hyphen and I, I think we're like neck and neck in the final week. Yeah, yeah. I don't think I won, but I don't think you won either, DK. Anyway, yeah, showdown time. So this is the Kaelin Black showdown time. That's right. This is important, considering how thin running back is this week. Once again, running backs didn't get hurt. Knock on the way. Who cares? Maybe that really was what it's all about. Is running back so never get hurt, ever again. Okay. The same goes from David. David! What do you got, Dave? It's about '80s music. Nice. Oh, shit. Debone says breakfast to banana with peanut butter, black tea with oat milk. Oh. So, David's trivia question. Michael Jackson's thriller album came out in November of 1982 and not only was thriller, the best-selling album of the '80s. Thriller is the number one selling album of all time. How many copies of Thriller have been sold worldwide as of August, 2026? Oh. I never know the music number is like that when it's like how many albums get sold. Like, for some reason, there's not like a range in that that's in my head that I can go to. Hmm. All right. I guess I'm ready. Yeah. Sure. All right. All right.
Are we saying all saying it at the same time? - Yes. - I have no idea how to answer this question. - Well, that's the idea. That's the beauty of it. - Three, two, one, - $250 million. - Oh, I went low. I thought I was gonna be high. I went 20 million. Craig went 50, high fits with 70. - In retrospect, 70's too high. Craig, it's funny you said 50 'cause I was also thinking about 50. And then I pivoted to 70. - Well, see, answer. - It'll be slower this year. I don't want to be accused of cheating. - The answer is, oh, fuck. Okay, I didn't look. - It's 70 million, isn't it? - It's 70 exactly. (laughing) - It is 70 exactly. - It's 70 exactly. - That looks bad. - That looks bad. - Fuck you. - I don't want to be accused of cheating. He says, right before getting it exactly right, this motherfucker. - That looks bad, I'll admit. (laughing) What is, it's like the Robert Pattinson meme. You know how this looks, right? - I have the best fucking attorneys. I'll admit that looks bad. - I see a reddit thread that says that the numbers have been updated and it's now over 100 million, either way you win. But. - Cool. Well, that was awkward. - Do you think that's good? - That's good. Michael Jackson, or at least as a state or whatever, owns almost all the Beatles IP. - He's not wild. - They do. - I wanna say he owns a lot of the Beatles IP. - I don't think I knew that. - How did that happen? - He bought it. - He just bought it? I would say he bought it in 1985. - Let's see, Michael Jackson purchased the publishing rights to 251 Beatles songs for 47 million in '85. That's a lot in '85. - Wait, Paul McCartney told Michael Jackson to invest in music and then he outbid Paul McCartney for Paul McCartney's music? - Ruthless, ruthless business. - Oh my God. - Wow. - That's pretty brutal. - Damn. - It's kind of like the original Scooter Braun Taylor Swift. - Right, yeah. - Well, Sony owns it now. Sony bought it in 2016. - Oh, okay. - It's not like publishing rights and there's also there's two types of rights for music, right? - Yeah. - There might be three. - Is it three? - It's really complicated. I think 'cause there's the, yeah. You know what, we're not gonna just guess. But if anyone wants to explain publishing rights and music to us, you can email us. - Okay, so I get Caleb Black. So yeah, you guys are screwed. Okay, your second. You can get somebody else. - God, names I'm thinking of. Tyler Algierre for the Cardinals who had like 17 carries. Mike Washington on the Raiders, who's insurance for genty. Keaton Mitchell, if you still wanna believe in the chargers, maybe Chris Rodriguez for the Jags. I will take, I actually kind of feel like Algierre is low ceiling. I probably shoot for like a ceiling play and I guess take a shot. Still on somebody like Keaton Mitchell and Beth that the chargers could bounce back. I'll take Keaton Mitchell. - I like that one. - But we all are agreement that like realistically Keaton Mitchell and these guys are kind of below the cut line of anyone you drafted, that's healthy. We're probably not cutting anyone. It's like 12 team league for this school. - I agree. For the purposes of this exercise, we have to take somebody but I would only take Keaton black. But I'll take Keaton Mitchell as the number two. - I'll go with Algierre. Just with the idea of the Cardinals offense might be a little bit better than everyone is expecting and there's gonna be a split between the two of them. The other guy that I wanna mention here just is kind of like throw it out there as a stash type player. If you have a spot on your roster, Devon Singletary for the Giants who, I mean look, Tyrone Tracy had another fumble in this game after having a horrific preseason. - He's going to Siberia. - There's a chance that Tyrone Tracy is not gonna play for the Giants anymore. And we saw what the Giants can do in the run game last night. Camp Scataboo, Greg Roman run offense with what they do with Jackson Tart. I just think there's a chance that the Giants run offense is a lot better this season than we expected or whatever predicted. And so Devon Singletary feels like an okay guy to stash in the off chance that Scataboo gets hurt. - Yeah. The only other name I wanna throw out is 'cause it hasn't come up as Seth McGowan who's the backup running back for the Colts because the Colts, they actually only had two running backs active this week, which means they have a lot of confidence. So it's John Taylor who they're not taking off the field and Seth McGowan, which I think roughly translates to, if John Taylor gets hurt, I think Seth McGowan's actually a three down backup. Kind of like Tank Bigsby, but honestly the Colts are running the ball better than the Eagles. So I just wanna throw that out because we don't always do like, you don't want the backup to your running back because it's kind of better to have the backup to other people's running backs 'cause then if their team gets hurt, then your team gets stronger and there's get weaker. Having said that, I don't know, it's kind of lame at the older I get the more I'm like, it's kind of nice to just have your own insurance policy. So if you have Jonathan Taylor and a deeper leak, you can add Seth McGowan as your handcuff. - Only if you know that if your guy gets hurt that this backup will get the majority of the touches. Like I have say qua in my home league, I'd drag to Tank Bigsby because I think Bigsby would get like 80% of the work say qua did. - If it's like your backup would only get half to carry the starter would, maybe not worth rostering. - It's suboptimal on a spreadsheet level to have your own backup, but it is emotionally invaluable. - Yeah, you know what else is? - That if sequence hurt, you have the backup. - You know what else is suboptimal taking Josh Allen in the third round. Everybody, but everybody who took Josh Allen in the third round won this week. - Just thrills, just absolutely thrilled. So yeah, if you have John Taylor, Seth McGowan, if you have sake one, you can get Tank Bigsby. And honestly, even if you have Derek Henry, just to sell, I think those are reasonable 12, 14 team leagues. If you want, you don't have to though. Okay, wide receiver. DK, who's your number one receiver at after week, after week one entering week two? - I'm gonna go with Devon Vale of the Saints played the most snaps of any receiver on the Saints last, on Sunday and also the Saints run a ton of plays. They had like 81 offensive plays. He had seven catches for 69 yards in the touchdown, including a couple nice diving catches or at least very difficult catches. So I think he's a good player who is established himself as the number two on that offense. And I would, he'd be the type of guy I could even plug into my line up next week and feel pretty good about it. - I agree. I have Vale as well. He was 17th among all wide receivers and expected fantasy points. He ran a career high in routes. We talked about them as just like a funnel offense with a lavet with him and with you on Johnson. So until Jordan Tyson comes back, Vale, he was doing it the final month of the season in 2025 and he seems to be doing it again now. I would, I would, he's my number one pick as well. - Completely agree. And I also think that at receiver, this is also to von Vale's the only player I would maybe consider cutting someone on my roster. Again, I don't know who's on your roster. I don't know how big your league is, et cetera, et cetera. But Vale is the only person I would probably consider cutting for my teams. The other receivers available. Tweak one, no one's desperate yet. Like this is another position where it's like, there's one guy and then that's guy, I don't know. - I think I agree with you. I think it's a little deeper a wide receiver. It always is, but I agree. I think Vale is the only guy I would cut somebody for. And like DK said, I would maybe even consider starting Vale. - Yeah, okay. - All right. We find ourselves back here again. It's time for the Devon Vale. Showdown time. (dramatic music) - This is from Austin. - A bone. - Austin Gale. - This is our Austin, not to my knowledge. - Okay. - This is breakfast with a scrambled bowl, consisting of scrambled eggs, chorizo, roasted potatoes, chipotle sauce, cheese, sprinkling of tortilla strips, washed down with a zero sugar raspberry lemonade liquid, I think. - Wow. - Dan, you hit us with a tortilla there. - I did, I was just kind of reading. You know why? It's 'cause it's like tortilla strips after. And I was so distracted by tortilla strips 'cause I feel like I never read those two words. - Get yourself a dang quesadilla. - Napoleon. - Yeah, quesadilla, that's right. - Austin, so Austin says, what is Arnold Schwarzenegger's kill count in all of his movies combined? - Oh, great question. - Oh, wow. - And you know, I think if it's up to you guys, but I think you could be allowed to go to his IMDB if you want. - Give it to me. - Yeah, we gotta read that. - I screw that. - I kind of want Kreg to take us through the Schwarzenegger IMDB. - I mean, I could probably do it off the dome. - Wow, now he's just showing off. - Wow, we've had to do a lot of them. Predator and Commando and obviously the Terminators. - Oh, there's another one that's. - Oh, true lies. - Stateful commercials. - Sure. Guys got a lot. Let's. (laughs) - Conan the Barbarian. There's gonna be a lot in there. - Kindergarten cop. - The Terminator. - Did you say that one? - I imagine. - Running man. - So, here's the question. - Did he kill anybody and twins? - If there's like a nuclear bomb goes off and it's Terminator, does that count? - If he detonates it, yeah. - Oh, he did well. - There's a lot of Terminators. - It's said, no, let me, it might say on screen. - Kindergarten cop. I'm a cop, you idiot. - Okay. - Do you guys, Junior? He didn't kill anyone in that. - Okay, wait. Sure. (laughs) - This is so ridiculous. Three, two, one. - 950. (laughs) - Wow. You said 950, I said 1,100. What did you say to you? - I think 9,000. - Command, I would have been in like the hundreds. - Yeah, Commando, he goes nuts. - Okay, all right, I got the answer here. What did you guys say again? - I said wait, you high. - What did you say? - 950. - 950, I said 1,100. - I said 9,000.
The answer is 841. Wow, you guys were really close. I was thinking like Terminator was going to put it over the top by a lot. I needed to win that, otherwise, if I don't, you know, what's the point of watching all those movies if I can't get close to that number? C'mando is, C'mando alone is 130. That's what I'm saying. It's unbelievable. Guys just diving from, that's crazy. I don't, I don't, I don't, you see C'mando hyvets? I think that was just maybe like bits and pieces, probably not from the beginning. It was just like, maybe flipping through channels. I feel like I've seen the middle of it. Okay. But not the whole thing. Yeah. All right. Vela, welcome to the squad. I have him actually in a couple of leagues, so familiar face. Okay. I'm not off to a good start after getting last last year. Couple, couple last place starts. Yeah. Yeah. I deal for you. Okay. I'm in trivia. We didn't practice. It's true. Yeah. Thank God. Okay. So I get next receiver. Disucks. So. There's a bunch of guys. There's Glee Freeman for the Bears. Who had a big week, but I'm not going to bet on that again, even though the Bears can be awesome. Keenan Allen for the calls. But I'm like, I just don't want to go through that slot. There's Caleb Douglas on the Dolphins and Lake Washington and Dolphins who are starting receivers on waivers. But I'm like, they're trying to lose. I don't really want to deal with that. I think, honestly, man, part of me would look at Trey Harris for the charges. Ladne McConkey is a chest injury. It's not clear if he's coming back. I guess this is a bad. I don't know if this makes sense to pick because we don't know if Ladne McConkey is going to miss this coming week. I kind of just think Trey Harris is good, but realistically, I guess the, I guess it's probably Caleb Douglas on the Dolphins just because he's probably the number one receiver on the Dolphins that it's like seven targets, five catches, 94 yards. I'm not proud of that. But it's like a third round rookie who's starting. But he's kind of seems like maybe the number one option for a team that at the very least will just be like the Dolphins will either be competitive or just be chunking the ball downfield a lot in the fourth quarter and getting, yeah, I don't really like it. But I don't feel like I know who the Patriots receiver is that it's going to step up and take all the AJ Brown targets. I don't think it's Mac Collins. I don't know if it's the Mario Douglas. Like, I don't think you should turn a clarity. So I guess I might as well bet on the Caleb Douglas and like Willis just being good. Just seems like the simplest route is the Dolphins offense is better than we think and then that's a good one. He plays. But I don't, I don't love that to be honest. We didn't talk a lot about the, the Dolphins game or the Dolphins side of the ball against the Raiders. But I'm going to say, I don't think Malik Willis through the ball terribly. I actually thought his arm looked okay. And I actually also thought Caleb Douglas kind of look good. Yeah. Strong and bad. Willis is a cannon. Yeah. I thought he actually made some nice, like deep throws, some sideline throws. And I thought Caleb Douglas looks pretty competent to be honest. I want to, I want to emphasize to Willis that he needs to tie his shoes a little tighter. His shoe, his shoe fell off twice in this game. And I remember the first time it fell off. He just grabbed it and put it back on like nothing. I was like, that's way too easy to get your shoe on. Your shoe needs to be tighter than that. That's a really good call. That being said, I was going to take Caleb Douglas too. So I think I'll just, I'll pivot to Mac Collins. There's not a lot of great options here. But he played basically every snap after AJ Brown won out. He was the guy that kind of stepped into that void. He's a veteran. I think Drake may trust him. I think the coaching staff trusts him. He's going to be in there because he's tough and physical and they want to be a physical run team. So I'll go with Mac Collins. He had four catches for 50 on yards. Don't feel great about this. The other guy I want to mention that is maybe just worth a stash. There's a couple guys worth a stash here. Denzel Boston and the Browns who ran 97% of the Browns for team dropbacks. So he was on the field for almost every one of their dropbacks in the offense. If they go to a different quarterback, and the offense, to Sean Watson, we're not going to start that week three game. To Sean Watson is later to start week two. I think week three, when they get back home, they'll probably switch to shooter. And maybe the offense can be a little bit more efficient or at least function a little bit better. So I'm going to go to Denzel Boston. He had two catches for 59 yards on the touchdown. This one's more of a, it's much more of a stash than I think that makes sense because Matt Collins, there's a funny thing going on where he, the Patriots have a run pass tell that when Matt Collins is on the field, they kind of just are running the ball. They didn't really fix it over the summer, which is really funny. So maybe the AG Brown injury forces them to just throw more when Collins is on the field. But I agree. It's like, you might as well bet on this really good rookie with the really good preseason having a rapport with Shedor in a couple weeks. Like you don't have to just maximize for week two in this situation, we're just like trying to find a gem for the rest of the season. So I think Boston's the right pick. Did you guys see Todd Munkin? His quote on Dishon that he's starting next week and he said, quote, there were some really good things on film. I, I really don't say that. I really think the answer to that is that the owner, Jimmy Haslam, informed Todd Munkin that Dishon will be the starter because Dishon's getting $46 million. And I don't hate the conspiracy that if Dishon gets hurt, the money would go back to the Browns. And they're like, just playing for the first two road games, let him suck. And Shedor can come in like a hero in week three. There were some really good things on film. So how about the Odyssey, like 70 millimeter, what does he mean? Real quick before we move on. The other two guys I want to just throw out there that are just to me, the perfect encapsulation of we are back to waiver wire, like ads and trying to figure out who to fucking add on the waiver wires. The mark is Robinson for the 49ers and Kendrick Born for the Cardinals. I feel like I've talked about these guys about the waiver wire pickups each of the last four years. It feels like I don't know why, but they're just always out there making plays. I got to say, the team's third receiver. Well, a game where the Cardinals offense looked great. Chikobi Reset was ripping it, 27 completions, 277 yards. Tray McBride had a good game, of course. The number two receiver on the Cardinals was new player, new addition, 31 year old Kendrick Born had eight catches and Marvin Harrison Jr. had one. Yeah. It's just unbelievable. The regular fantasy football show is brought to you by Fandall. Welcome to your most rewarding season ever, only on Fandall. How rewarding are we talking? More rewarding than an 18 point comeback, maybe even more rewarding than an online and catching a touchdown. In this NFL season, that feeling doesn't stop on the field. Look out for the all new Fandall rewards club, exclusive offers, surprises and more. Look at it week two, and I see the Cleveland Browns are at Tampa Bay and the Bucks are favored by eight and a half points. Even though last week, the Jags were favored by eight and a half of the Browns and won by like 90. And so I'm just, I know the Bucks turned the ball over a bunch, but I kind of just don't think the Bucks are going to do that again. And I think Buccaneers are actually just going to blow out the Browns and to show them Watson exactly like the Jag Wars did. So I'm going to take the Bucks giving eight and a half, which is a lot, but I just, you don't know how many times left in your life. You'll be able to bet against the Sean Watson, like, you know, life is short, like get it and like him. So every week, check the Fandall app to see what's waiting for you.

The tight ends is a good reminder that this, it's what DK is saying is, I think a week one in the absence of some huge player that's like a, maybe a league winning player to get. It's like the point of these ads at the beginning of the season is not to fill in for bi-weeks or injuries. It's like hinge. It's like designed to be deleted. You're trying to add players that will fix the problem, hopefully permanently for the rest of the season. And like, you know, Denzel Boston, maybe, could start for you for like the next three months, like in a couple, as of a couple weeks from now. So I think that's the point. And I think that's especially true at tight end where like you're trying to, you know, trying to get out of this constant churn of adding players because it sucks. So without, oh yeah, who are you going to pick? Well, I was going to, I'm curious you guys think, but I think for tight end, it's specifically for two people. I don't think there's anyone on waivers that you're like cutting your tight end, you're starting tight end for this person. I think. And probably everyone is happy with their tight end they drafted is except for, I don't know if that's right. Yeah. Well, no, I'm saying the players that I think you have to bench next week are Harold Fanon as long as the show wants to playing. I don't think you can play Harold Fanon. And I don't think you can play Kyle Pits as long as Cooper rushes playing. And maybe even if two of plays, I don't know if you can play Kyle Pits that you see that Falcons offense change. So I think you kind of need to find someone else to play if you have those two guys. And maybe George Kiddell, depending on the snap count, I don't know if you guys, but I think you do need to find a replacement for this week for those people. I agree. I mean, there could be a few others because if you're in like a 12 team league, those that like 10 to 12 range could include guys like Jake Ferguson who did nothing. Like there are some players in that range who you might be swapping in and out. Like maybe you want to bail on Jake Ferguson and replace him with Pat Frymer or something like that. Like, I think that's reasonable. Okay. Also, yeah. Yeah. It was Pat Frymer if you number one guy, Craig. Yes. I think he is. I think he was much more involved with the offense. I think Pat Frymer is a really good player. I think he's like one of a handful of tight ends to ever start his career with like three straight seasons of 50 plus catches. I just think the Arthur Smith thing last year where they had Darno Washington and Johnny Smith and Pat Frymer. He just got lost in the shuffle. And I think now that he's kind of back to his original role and they're throwing the ball a ton more. I think this year with McCarthy, they threw the ball 47 times in week one. Frymer with like 50 yards in a touchdown. I think he's going to be in the mix. [BLANK_AUDIO]
Yeah, he's my pick. - He was my number one guy too, DK was he years? - Yes, he ran 31 routes, which was sixth most among all tight ends. Also, this is really interesting, Craig. We talked about this a little bit when McCarthy came in, they might pass more. - Yeah. - I saw this from Joel Thorman. 74% neutral pass rate in week one. - Yeah, sorry, they didn't throw it 47 times, they threw it 40 times, but that was Pat Thorman. - Yes, I totally agree. They're running 11 personnel and they're throwing the ball a ton, and it's very different than what the Steelers looked like last year. - I also think the thing I'd add on top of it is Aaron Rodgers, more than any quarterback, throws to the players that he trusts. And Rodgers has said over and over again in all these different platforms over the last three weeks. He names three people that he trusts. It's DK Metcalf, it's Pat Fryermuth, and Roman Wilson, those are the three people he keeps singling out over and over. And honestly, it's like a 15 year track record of those guys end up getting the ball, no matter what else you think about the situation. I just think Fryermuth is going to be the new Bob Taunion. You know, remember when Bob Taunion, and then he ended up telling us his name was Bob Taunion after two years, but Bob Taunion would get like 60 catches and 11 of them were touchdowns. I think that's the Pat Fryermuth season in coming. It'll be 60 catches, but he's going to get a touchdown more than every other week. So I fryermuth is the guy that works this week, but just is a, I just think you can kind of just get lucky honestly for the rest of the year. You know what team Bob Taunion's on? - Well, also the Steelers. - Yeah. - I think he was their final rosters, but. Okay, so is it Pat Fryermuth's showdown time? - Yeah, baby, it's time for the Pat Fryer's showdown time. - I knew he was going to be a thing this year. I'm happy about it, I'm happy about it. - You called it. - This one is, I laughed at this, this one's from Doug. - Doug. - How many films has Ringer Fantasy Football League member, Sean Fennesy, logged in his letter box account? - Ooh. - Oh shit. Like combined all of them? - All of them, yeah. - Wow. - I am not on letter box, but it's basically your review movies, right Craig? It's like social media for like watching movies. - You don't have to review them, but yeah, you, you log them, you can write a review, and then you give them like a rating out of five stars. I just don't know how long letter box been around, I wonder. - And Sean-- - Sean watches a lot of movies. - He watches a lot of movies, and I believe he logs every single one that he watches. - I have a number in my head, so whenever you guys are ready. - I also have a number. - Yeah, sure. Three, two, one, 2,000. - 2,100. - Craig and I are like on the same page today. - I said, I said 2,500. - Wow, wow. - That's a fuck. - Wow, it's pleased. - 2,000, 2,100, 2,500, wow. - Okay. - I have an Sean-- - I'm like tight window to hit here. - Oh, wow. - We were not even close. - 4,500. - 4,500, he's back, baby. The king has returned. - Wow. - Jesus, 4,500. - All right, that's a lot. I didn't even know there was that many movies ever made. That's crazy. - 517 this year. - Come on. - Wait, how many this year? - 517. - I was roughly operating at around 500 a year, but I guess that was a lot. - Yeah. - All right, so I think I'm in last place for this. - What's the highest rated one? I wonder. - Oh, yeah, should I just peruse? Let's see here. Well, you can't, it doesn't work like that, right? Craig, it's like it's just out of, - So there's just gonna be like a five stars? - Yes, yes, got it. - So it'd be like how many five star movies did Hissie give him? And sometimes he doesn't rate them. He just logs them. - All right, well, Patty Fry is welcome to the squad. - I needed you. - That's fine, so I'm second, right? I'm gonna take, I'm taking Brenton Strange, who I think is a really good player on, he's the tight end on the Jags. He's scored a touchdown. He only had two catches in three targets, but they basically didn't have to play football for the second half of this game. And I want to be a part of that offense, and I think he's gonna continue to be a part of the offense. And you have guys like Brian Thomas who are beat up, Travis Hunter's not that involved. And so I think there's a chance that he's, you know, gonna be a legit part of the offense going forward. I think he could be around like a fringe guy that you could hold on to and start every week. I do feel that way. - His touchdown catch is pretty impressive. He like, reach behind him. He kind of had to do like a behind the back spinning catch to grab it. It was pretty impressive. - He's a good player. - Hi Fitz. - So I'm torn. I think there's a difference to me between the player I think people should add. If you like kind of just need someone for week two to replace Brock Bowers, which the answer is Michael Mayer is still to me. If you need Brock Bowers replacement specifically, 'cause when Brock is back, then you can just get rid of Michael Mayer. But I think if you just kind of want to tight end flyer, I have a different answer than you just need points for this week. - Okay. - So like the player, honestly, I kind of want to talk about here as Terrence Ferguson from the Rams, who had a resounding zero catches last week. - Okay. - However, Terrence Ferguson played a lot. He was a second round pick for the Rams last year, and he is very well positioned to be the number three receiver on the Rams. And I kind of think the Rams will be okay. I think all the concern around them is overblend. The game was in Australia, it was bizarre. And I think there's a chance that you just get the number three receiver on this team in Terrence Ferguson. He played a lot in these multi-titled in sets, but then if anything happens to Devonta Adams, you've puked a kooa. The upside of Terrence Ferguson to me is like, so much higher, and there's a chance that, in a given week, he could be in that upper echelon of tight end, which is like, when you add those guys to the beginning of the season, the upside's so high. The downside is he might just not have a catch, like that's entirely possible. So I'm looking at the giant sticks, we come on in a football, and I'm like, there's, Sean McVase is going to look at our Vell race, who I love, but is a rookie linebacker, and Sean McVase probably going to figure out some ways to put our Vell race in a blender trying to guard these tight ends. And I can kind of see Terrence Ferguson or called me Parkinson, Waltzing at the end zone. I am reluctant to put my name that Terrence Ferguson will have a catch next week, but over the course of the season, I think he's a great pick up. And next week, if I wanted a player, like, I kind of look at TJ Hawkinson for the Vikings. I think of Carson Wentz just plays next week's the Vikings. I think Hawkinson, for better or for worse, is kind of like what Zach Erts was, to Carson Wentz and Philly, but they're both washed now. And I just kind of think Wentz is going to look for Justin Jefferson first, and Hawkinson second, and Jordan Addison, is just going to get pushed out, 'cause those are the routes that I think Wentz is most comfortable with. But, are you indicated about Jordan Addison? You feel good about that? - No catches for Jordan Addison. - Vindicated is probably not the right word. Like relieved, I didn't, I was not in on that. Yeah. - That's a window into your mind. I feel like Hyphids would feel vindicated and you feel relieved. - I don't want to do-- - No, relieved was a good word. - Someone getting zero targets. - Why? - Weird. - I don't know, 'cause I want everyone to be happy. - I mean, Kyler Murray was out of the game, 11 snaps into the game. I think it's hard to take a take away from that, you know? - Yeah. - You want to, with the Vikings won, Jordan Addison should be happy, right? - Yeah, winning cares all. - Yeah, exactly. So, what do you guys think of this? Like, do you guys agree with me? Do you think I'm crazy? I'm talking about a player didn't have any catches last week? - No, I think, look, the next week, the risk of starting a guy like Ferguson next week is pretty difficult, but so it's why I understand why you're kind of splitting this into two parts in doing Hawkinson who had 36 yards in the touchdown last week. And Ferguson's the long-term play. Ferguson ran around on 44% of passes for the Rams, he had 13 routes run, which was the most that tied in, but obviously that's still quite low. - It's low, and that's the thing is, I don't think I want to play him, but I want to see if that goes up over time, and I, 'cause if he explodes one week, I think it'll just be hard to get him, but I'm not gonna sit here and be like, you should play Terence Ferguson next week. - You know, I find it funny that nobody did, no one even mentioned Micah Sikki. - I was gonna say, did we not say Micah Sikki? - No, the other people I'm wondering about, Micah Sikki, because he had a beat, I love that we're just like, well, the guys who went, well, we can't do it. - The guy who had 80 yards did a touchdown, no thanks. - I know, I'm just like, Jermar Chase and T Higgins had like, what, three catches combined or something insane? Or like, I mean, I'm just, I don't know. - They come out of five catches, that's not gonna keep happening. - Sikki only played 33% of the snaps and ran around on 45% of the team's drop-backs. So it was like, just a really outlier performance, but I can say that being said, like he did do this quite a few games last year. You're kind of just hoping to play Wackimoll and catch him on a really good day, because I feel like it's matchup dependent and game dependent when he's gonna show up and do big stuff, but he has a history of producing some big games. - It's gonna be the nature of Titans this year. It's just every year, but this year in particular is gonna be Wackimoll, because there's gonna be so many multi-titled incest. The other people I'm wondering about are Hunter Henry and the Patriots, 'cause the AJ Brown targets have to get dispersed and instead of just gambling on like, which will be pop Douglas or some Patriot, I'm kinda like, should we just have Hunter Henry? And is that the answer? And the other one, I'm wondering, yeah. So Hunter Henry, Gisikki, Hawkinson, I'm like, I don't love any of these. I can't say that, like, it makes me particularly happy. I guess I have to pick somebody. The point is these guys are all kind of very similar to me. - Yeah, but I would pick Tisha Hawkinson, 'cause the Vikings are playing the Bears next week. And I just think the Bears are gonna put a ton of points up and Carson Wentz is gonna have to throw. And I just think Hawkinson is going to be in the game script where their Vikings are gonna need to be just pushing the ball down fields. So I just think Hawkinson's the most likely to get a touchdown for this week. And it's not possibly as better than you think for the near term.
All right. Cuddle lane. All right. We did it. Quarterback. I don't what do you guys briefly think about David and Joku? David and Joku ran 30 routes, caught five catches. I've been wondering about him all season. We haven't talked about him. And I just felt like he was washed and everyone was talking about a Charlie Collar and everything. But I don't mind if you want to pick up on Joku in case he is a big week. I'm like, I think everyone just assumed or end of Gadson would be better and Charlie Collar and everyone wants to put David and Joku out to pasture. But watching him, I'm like, he might just be a part of the offense for better for worse. Like a vet. There's a veteran savvy that kind of just exists. Yeah. I don't know. You could probably do worse. You could you could probably do you could you could have Colston lovely to crowd pits and get no points. Yeah, I guess in reality, you're probably not doing this. That's like an 18 team league situation. You're where you're probably like thinking about David and Joku, but still one of his catches was deflected from a delineate. So, but I know which is funny because that shouldn't count as a target. Like he should have five catches on four targets because he caught a deflection. It doesn't call you're right. He doesn't. He says he has five catches. That's inaccurate. And that should be worth points. If you get a catch that wasn't targeted to you. That's like I think I think fumble recovery should be worth points. Like Patrick Ricard. Totally a hundred following like Kim scataboo or someone in the Giants Fumble is a likely fumbled last night for son in a football. And the whole thing in football is like you're supposed to follow just in case they fumble and guys if they're tired, don't. And this happened to the bills game. James Cook fumbled and Osiris Torrance got the ball. And the Giants game Patrick Ricard recovered the fumble. And I'm like, that should be worth a point. You save to turn over. 100% agree. Like one point. I think one point. I think more coverage. Fine. Sure. I think fumbling instead of minus two for a lost fumble. I think it should be minus one for a fumble and minus another one if you lose the fumble. So like if you fumble, you should, you should lose a point no matter what because you lost the fumble. And if your teammate recovers it, they get a point for recovering it. But I kind of hate that if your guy fumbles and then someone else picks it up, like you, nothing happens to you. Like that's not really how it goes. It's one of the more important plays you can make. Like if you think about, yeah, what a coach is the most happy about like recovering a fumble is incredibly important in the game. I agree. I don't think that's an option on most apps. Like you can't even select that. No, I don't think it should. Yeah. It should, it should be a thing. It's just like if you fumble the ball, you should lose a point. I don't think people even disagreed with that. This episode is brought to you by Brooks, whether it's for a moment, a mile or a marathon.

Let's run there. Learn more at Brooks running dot com. Okay, so I'm taking it's after my me and during T. J. Hawkins, in first the Vikings, if you want points this week, but I keep an eye on Terrence Ferguson, I guess is the right way to say it. Watch him do nothing. Quarterback, I don't think people need a ton of quarterback stuff. Like if you'd Kyler Murray, maybe need one, I would just say Malik Willis, if he's available, like I think there was enough promise in Russian that he might be a fantasy football cheat code. He didn't run a ton with the Packers, but I mean, he did scramble for a touchdown. And I just think over time, like in the beginning of your career as a passer, like Malik Willis, we were really fast. You have a huge arm, but like you weren't playing in an advanced system. There's a desire to be like a pocket passer and not bail unusual likes all the time. And eventually, as seasons like Miami's go, there's more that urge is just gives into I need to make a play. And I just think Malik Willis, like as he discovers when to run is just maybe keep that guy in mind. And then also just get throw up race young who had like 30 points and plays the Falcons next week or down now three defensive lineman, the Cleveland in week three, which is going to be against Shadour Sanders and the Detroit week four. That's pretty bad defenses. Pretty good. So I think if you need a quarterback for whatever reason, I think Bryce is a pretty good option. Classic. Okay. Defences. This next segment is brought to you by Verizon, a good fantasy draft can set you up for success, but championships are one by staying glued to the waiver wire all season long. That's where smart managers find the missing pieces at just the right time. So let's get into the waiver wire daily drops. Defences for this week. I think number one has to be the Tampa Bay Buckeneers. It's not even close. They're widely available because people didn't want them against Cincinnati. And yet now the bucks played to Sean Watson. And upset. Really, they was out there cooking. Look good. He's going to cook to Sean Watson. And then a week three, the Buckeneers face the Vikings, which will be their Carson Wentz or Carson Wentz with two weeks of tape on them or Kyler Murray. So I think Tampa Bay is a really good defense to add. They're available 49ers. The other. That's the thing. If they're available also the 49ers, a lot of people will have them or sorry, do not have them because they were playing the Rams, the Niners are playing the Dolphins. That is also like an absolutely excellent one to have. And if those two are you can't get it does. There is a drop off. There's two outside throughout is it's going to sound weird. I say this. Okay. But it's a weird year for defense. There's not many defenses played well last week. I want to throw out the Bears defense. And that sounds nuts. Okay. But they gave up 37 points to Carolina. But they got three turnovers out of it. So they had like six points of defense, which is like what the Ravens adverse the Colts. So I'm like the Bears are going to be so good in offense that I think the Bears defense that the chance for the Bears to make a play against Carson Wentz and the Vikings. The chance of a pick six or a fumble six the way I just think is actually like the risk is actually kind of worth the reward to me like all right, maybe the Vikings in Carson Wentz just steamroll the Bears defense. But I think the odds of Carson Wentz doing a pretty catastrophic turnover a kind of high. So I kind of don't hate the Bears defense actually even if they give up 40 points, you might end up with like pretty good score. I don't disagree. I like that. I like betting against the back up the longer into their like the more games they start because they usually start to get worse. They usually don't get better. It's like food that's been sitting out on the counter. It doesn't matter how good it was at the time. Like it's just there's a half life. Right. Exactly. One hour in you're like, oh, cool leftovers. On that note, the other one I want to say, I don't want to run this by you guys before formally recommended. I kind of wanted to ask you at the Cardinals defense. Oh, again, Seattle against Seattle, because he can't want to do a true lock. I mean, yeah, he's a backup quarterback. There's a reason he's been a backup quarterback. He's been a career backup. And he's the type of backup who can make bone headed mistakes. Right. He's pretty aggressive for what, you know, what you'd consider a backup quarterback. Like he's not he's not afraid to rip the past down the field. So yeah, I mean, that's that's something you're just hoping to get a couple turnovers out of it basically. And that could happen. It's a little galaxy brain, but that's the order for sure. It's Niners and the Niners defense versus Miami and the Bucks defense versus the Browns into Sean Watson. Huge massive teardrop, probably two tears. And then it's like I kind of bears versus Carson wins and the Vikings and kind of like you should definitely be able to get one of those. Okay, just like keeping an eye on the waiver wire on Mondays Verizon customers can snag NFL merch gift cards and more Verizon shines daily drops every Monday.

All right, Craig asked for people to email in about what the Colston Loveland term should be. Oh, yeah, yeah, can you explain that Craig for those who don't know what we're talking about? No worse feeling in fantasy football than seeing that the team that your guys on score to zillion points, you check the box score only to find out that your player had a fucking goose egg, which is called what Colston Loveland did when his team put up 59 points, he had zero catches no worse feeling. So the honorable mention from Blair, bebone Blair is that Jalen Waddle was concussed for the Broncos 70 to zero game. Oh, right. Yeah, and that it should be called getting a waddled. Okay, but that's not the winner. The winner is many people suggested this, but I want to read mitches email mitch mitchy. Mitches breakfast, one of those nature valley biscuits sandwich things and a cup of coffee for breakfast, nature valley makes biscuits sandwiches. Those are my first thought as well. I just know them making like the granola bars. Say the ones that crumble the world's most crazy granola bar, they have like the worst thing you could put in your backpack. It is true because anywhere your mo what is the situation where I'm supposed to eat that? Can I just say I need to play those stink those make up a little less crumbly for crying out loud. It's crazy. If they were like undeniably tasty, I've been put up with it. They're not they're mediocre. Why are they so for the only granola bar? It's so crumbly. If you try to do like a work, someone listening to this right now, it's like listening to this show at their desk in an office, trying to make your valley and they're just making a mess and you end up looking like Peter Pettigrew. You're just like picking up crumbs. It's ridiculous. I agree. I do think they taste good. I'm not going to lie. The fine. You could make them less crumbly. I feel like science is far enough along now that we could do it. My friend, it's a breakfast. It's a nature valley breakfast sandwich. Well, the breakfast sandwich, I don't know, but my friend who was a personal trainer, I was trying to eat them to be healthy. And my friend described them as a health food for people who don't know what health food is. Yeah. Right. And that really hurt. I was eating a lot of them at the time. They're like, they're like biscuit cookies with like peanut butter in the middle. Okay. I was thinking it's like a like an egg sandwich. Yeah, like a Jimmy Dean from nature valley. Yes. Yes. Yes. This appears to be just like two biscuit cookies with like almond butter in the middle. Anyway, Mitch email on what a coast in loveland is. Regarding coast to loveland's goose egg. Oh, sorry, goose egg. I think there's a term for us.
There's somewhat similar situation for when someone technically is present and watching a situation unfold, maybe happily, maybe not, but doesn't actually participate and I think it rhymes with duck. It always comes back to the fantasy, fantasy, it has to be, oh man. Bill wrote in and was less diplomatic. Bill said it should be called the cook chair, everyone is good. Americans having fun scoring, left, right, center, backwards, they're absolutely pounding the end zone. Meanwhile, poor coastal leveling is sitting on the sidelines all alone, getting blue balls because he can't get into the end zone, but he's also kind of enjoying watching it from afar because at the end of the day his team is thoroughly winning and satisfied. They're doing great. I was happy for them. I was going to say the reason why I equip it with this is because, like, theoretically, the person in the cook chair is, this is what they wanted, right, is it, like, it's a kill. They're winning. They're winning the game. Yeah. You think, I mean, I don't know, maybe he's a really good teammate. I feel like I'd still think he could, I think he said they won 59 points. Craig, you could say the same thing about people in the cook chair. Some of them are maybe not like 100% it's mixed emotions. There's a lot going on. Some of them are only sitting there because their fiancee asked if they could do it before they get married. Right. Theoretically, hypothetically, no, no, literally, I heard that literally, what do you mean? It's literally not hypothetically, it's, no, it's true. That's true. Allegedly literal. Allegedly literal. Wait, was she proposing that he watch? No, I don't believe so. I don't know. I'm not privy to that. Maybe. I don't know if they're getting up to, yeah. I think it should be the, yeah, Coulson, Loveland, Cooke. The Cooke chair is good. Well, how do we say it that? Coulson, Loveland got cucked with zero points. Like, how do you say it? Coulson, Loveland got stuck in the Cooke chair. He got stuck in the Cooke. Yeah. Coulson, Loveland's Cooke. I think it's Coulson, no, he's not, yeah. Coulson, Loveland's getting cucked by Khalif Raymond. He got cucked by his own team. Yeah. Cooke, but yeah. Okay. What's Cooke? When did Cooke, like, become part of normal parlance, I feel like I never heard about this growing up. No. I think it's more recent. It is more recent, I think. I feel like it was very niche in that it became something, all the pepe, the frog bots started tweeting about it, like, about 10 years ago. Okay. And then we all, everything changed. Yeah. It was. Yeah. I have no, yeah. That's exactly right. Cucking has always been a thing. The term felt like there was some zeitgeistie moment where it became popular to say, but I don't know what that moment was. What's looked that up? I can continue. I'll look it up. Yeah, yeah. Okay. DK's just, like, doesn't talk for the next five minutes. I'm doing research. Oh, actually, wow, it's interesting. The immediate answer, and I bet is gamer gate, which would make a ton of sense, actually, because that's kind of the beginning of the modern internet. Gamer gate? Was that a scale? What is gaming? I don't even know how to begin to describe it. I will send you an article. I mean, I don't know the details on it. I remember people talking about it. It was about the integrity of video game journalism. It's the beginning of, like, communities getting together to, like, they were, you know what? I'll, I'll, was it about somebody named Zoe Quinn? Yeah. And her ex-boyfriend. Interesting. Okay. It's this thing that was, like, this very weird story, but then became kind of a roadmap for our online communities, like, acted on social media. It's actually kind of interesting. Okay. But anyway. Okay. Cuck. So we're adopting that now. All right. And now it's us. Calls to the level in the Cuck. He really did. That was an all-time Cuck job. 59. What's this? What's the sex equivalent of 59 zero? Like, he missed an orgy at the Playboy Mansion or like Studio 54 or something like that. I would say he had to watch his fiance 59, someone else. Oh. Hey, oh. I don't even know what that is, but it sounds like 59 is even funnier. Yeah. And if you have to ask, you can't afford it. Oh, okay. On that note, thank you, DK. Thank you, Craig. Thank you, Austin. Thank you, Nicole. Thank you, everyone who emailed in. Thank you to, uh, yeah. And, uh, everyone emailed in. I forget, everyone, um, emails, fantasy courts, emails, your, uh, trivia questions and emails things for, uh, the Friday episode, we might be able to do some emails.

You're right. They are scorpions. Stingers. You could die. They're the bad ones. That's like a Ricky Bobby. If he had a band. That was the original pitch for anchor man, there's scorpion in there. They were just scorpions and bowling balls on a plane and they crack and scorpions and throw and throwing stars on a plane and they crashed and there was the entire pitch. That's right. Yes. There's the original pitch was it. It became a scene in increment too, but the entire thing was Ron Burgundy and all them are on a plane to China to see the pandas.

Should have just let, I don't know, let's love to do it out. The scorpions sold over a hundred million records worldwide. They're a German band. Oh.

Why would I go there? Here I am, band, band, band, band, you like a hurricane. How did that hurricane go in LA, Craig? It was fine. I was in Toronto for a lot of it. It was just very humid here for like a week. So it only gets to hurricane and it's humid and everyone freaks out. Well, this rain really hard for a day. I just wasn't here for it. You hit. You hit it. You hit it. Dick and I were in LA and it was like, there's going to be a hurricane and we're like, I bet not, but we're going to leave. Well, those are the weather reporters saying that. So I was just, I was listening to the meteorologist, but, sure, maybe the best curb bit of all the curb bits might be the weatherman lies about the rain to play golf with no one at the course. It's genius. And I, I say, I'm on to you, weatherman, all the time. It's, I'm on to you, weatherman. There's a jet stream of bullshit coming out of you. Goodbye, everyone.

Summary:
The podcast hosts, Danny Hyves, Danny Kelly, and Craig Coral, deliver a detailed fantasy football waiver wire analysis following Week 1, using a fun trivia format to resolve player picks. They emphasize that while early-season drafts set the foundation, waivers can be pivotal for long-term success. Kaelin Black is highlighted as the top running back pickup due to his consistent performance and the potential for increased workload if Christian McCaffrey is injured or limited.
For wide receivers, Devon White stands out with a strong game under the Saints’ high-volume offense, making him a top-tier addition. The hosts also discuss other waiver options, including Caleb Douglas of the Dolphins, Mac Collins of the Patriots, and Pat Frymer of the Cowboys as a high-upside tight end with a proven track record of receiving targets. The episode underscores the importance of identifying players with realistic upside, especially in deeper leagues where injuries or shifts in offensive schemes can create opportunities.
Trivia segments are used not only for entertainment but to create engaging, memorable moments that highlight the unpredictability of fantasy football. The hosts also touch on broader topics like fantasy football scoring rules—arguing that fumble recoveries should count as points—and the emotional toll of early-season disappointment. Ultimately, the episode serves as both a strategic guide and a lighthearted reminder that fantasy football is as much about mental resilience as it is about analytics.
The discussion wraps with a strong emphasis on monitoring key matchups and emerging players, especially in the waiver wire, to build a resilient and adaptable roster.
