00:00All right, let's talk about the waiver wire here. Let's talk about Joe Flacco,
00:03quarterback of the Indianapolis Colts. If you're looking to stream a quarterback,
00:06because, well, you know, Josh Allen's not playing and Jalen Hurts isn't playing. If
00:10you're still playing fantasy championships in Week 18, you need to have your head examined.
00:13But Joe Flacco, he's playing and he is available. He's very available, 7% rostered. So obviously
00:19that's mostly in any late Superflex leagues where he was added. But Joe Flacco, again,
00:26we keep looking at the matchup here. I love the over. In fact, if you put the over with
00:30Joe Flacco in his passing yardage over today with the props, it's a great way to get into the plus
00:37as you get plus 170 on that combination. So over 240 and a half, over on the 44 and a half. That's
00:43a good day at the office. I think a very simple duo bet there you could do on this Indianapolis
00:48Colts-Jacksonville game. And if you want to go the other side too, you're the Matt Jones
00:52overpassing yards with Brian Thomas juniors over on his receiving yards, because that is the guy
00:57who's getting the football in this game. There's no doubt about that. Or you could put the over
01:01in with that as well. There's so many fun ways to get involved in Week 18, because God knows
01:06we have to find a way to make it more entertaining, because there's so
01:08much bad football that we're going to see in Week 18.
01:12All right. And with that said, let's move on. Playing the role of Saquon Barkley today
01:16will be Kenneth Gamewell. He's 8% rostered. Do we see the show?
01:22Well, look, normally when you have the matinees, you do not want to see the backups, right? You
01:26don't want to see the, the understudies. This is a far cry. You know, this was like, you know,
01:31me filling in, you know, for some great Broadway actor. You know, nobody wants to see me as the
01:37lead in Hamilton. That's, that's not something you're, you came to the theater. You didn't spend
01:40$200 a ticket to see me play Aaron Burr. You just didn't see it. Now, can I do it? Of course.
01:47Am I going to do it? Well, probably not, but Ken Gainwell will do all right. Ken Gainwell is an
01:53interesting spot here where, you know, it's the most work he's going to get all year. Probably
01:57the biggest workload he had was Week 7, ironically, against the Giants. Who would have thought,
02:03why? Because, you know, Saquon ran amok and there was time for Ken Gainwell to do some more. 13
02:09on the ground carries for 56 yards. I would expect something similar today. If he falls
02:13in the end zone, it's a really good day. It's double digits there for him. He'll probably see
02:17a target or two, maybe a catch or two. I don't expect too much here with the backups all playing
02:21here for the Philadelphia Eagles, but a great rebound season for the Eagles. I don't want that
02:25to get lost in the shuffle. This was a team last year fell apart at the seams, fell into the
02:30playoffs, backdoored their way in. We're gone in the first round against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
02:35and Baker Mayfield. Jason Kelsey retires. And what happens? You go out and you have a really good
02:40season. You acquire Saquon Barkley. He has the career year. Saquon Barkley now could be on a
02:46Hall of Fame trajectory with another two or three years like this. It just goes to show you, you can
02:50have a lot of talent, but if you don't have the offensive line to run the football, it doesn't
02:53matter how good the running talent is. So hopefully, guys like Ashton Chente will land in good
02:58spots for their fantasy value in the NFL Draft this year. But shout out to Saquon, a tremendous
03:03season. And putting the team before personal records, pretty cool. Not something you see very
03:08often here. It is smarter to rest. It is smarter to be ready for the playoffs because it's about
03:13winning and losing. And in all fairness, you know, you didn't break Eric Dickerson's record in the
03:18same amount of games. So people would have a lot to say about that. And I might be one of those people.
