Week 6 Fantasy Recap + Josh Jacobs News

Matthew Berry (0:09)

Beatle, Michelle Beatle and Mo Hassan, former D1 quarterback. It's 1 o'clock here on the East Coast. What it means, it is 5 o'clock somewhere. Time to get Happy Hour started. For those that are joining us just on the podcast, I should mention that we talked in our last segment about our Fantasy Hoops League.

And Beatle talked a lot of trash. She's projected to be number 2 in our league.

Michelle Beatle (0:33)

Sounds about right.

Matthew Berry (0:34)

Mo is projected to beat Blake, our PA.

Michelle Beatle (0:37)

Eesh, and that's it.

Matthew Berry (0:38)

9th, I know, he's projected 9th or 10th. But, week 1, Beatle and I play each other and I'm projected to beat Beatle by 35 points.

Michelle Beatle (0:48)

I haven't even looked at my lineup yet. So you're projected on the default.

Mo Hassan (0:52)

The Rams are projected to win the Super Bowl.

Michelle Beatle (0:54)

Exactly, so I don't know what he's doing. And by the way, those projections are sometimes garbages.

Matthew Berry (0:58)

Yeah, yeah, that's the kinds of things I would say if I was projected to lose in week number 1 Listen, Beatle, you're an NBA expert. I'm a fantasy football guy, so this will be interesting.

Michelle Beatle (1:09)

I'm an expert in nothing, if we're being honest. Let's just keep that real. I don't want to take credit for something I certainly am not.

Matthew Berry (1:15)

You are expert in a couple of things, and you are well versed in the NBA. There's no question about it. You've hosted an NBA show for like four years.

Michelle Beatle (1:22)

That's a great point.

Matthew Berry (1:24)

You've worked for the Spurs. You are a hardcore, deep NBA fan.

Mo Hassan (1:28)

You literally host the best basketball show now.

Michelle Beatle (1:32)

Mo's trying to get on my good side, because I called him a bad name in my head.

Matthew Berry (1:37)

I don't like the sucking up.

Mo Hassan (1:38)

I don't like Mo sucking up. It's my favorite basketball show. It's subjective. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Matthew Berry (1:44)

How many basketball shows do you watch?

Mo Hassan (1:46)

You only need one.

Michelle Beatle (1:47)

That's a great point. If you're watching the right one, you only need the one. He's not wrong about that.

Mo Hassan (1:50)

When you pick the right one, you only need one. He does, Matthew.

Michelle Beatle (1:53)

It's not a good color on you.

Matthew Berry (1:54)

Disagree, disagree. Two good colors on me are jealousy and bitterness. Also, petty is a decent shade for me as well.

Michelle Beatle (2:02)

That's like the glow. The glow comes from the petty. Do you want to talk about like yesterday?

Matthew Berry (2:07)

No, I don't want to talk about anything.

Michelle Beatle (2:08)

No, Sunday was weird. Can we say it was crazy, weird, fun, not so fun? It was weird. Yeah, it was a lot of things. So I'm going to start with your top fantasy headlines that came out of week six so far. Talk to me.

Matthew Berry (2:17)

Absolutely. All right, so I'm going to start.

Here's my chaos. I hear chaos in New York, right? Chaos in New York. Cam Scataboo plays only six snaps. We hear before the game that he's going to be involved, but Najee Harris will have a bigger role. None of that actually happened. Like literally, apparently the answer of Cam Scataboo or Najee Harris, the answer was Tyrone Tracy.

Jameis Winston replaced by JJ McCarthy in the fourth quarter. So a lot going on with the Giants offense. It's headline number one is what's going on with the Giants. Headline number two, we saw Caleb return. He looked great for the Bears. Finally, our long national nightmare is over. Colston, no longer Colston Haitland, he's back to being Colston Loveland. He had a huge game, could have been even bigger. Should have had a second touchdown. Whatever, we'll take it. Thank God, Colston Loveland off the Schneid. Over in Philadelphia, the Eagles offense continued to struggle. We also got news just before the show started that Jalen Hurts will now miss the remainder of the season. Not only was he out for this past Sunday's game against the Panthers, but he's going to miss the remainder of the season. So we're going to get into that. So the Eagles offense, the Cowboys-Packers game, which we thought were going to be a ton of points, that failed. Failed to deliver a bunch of points. Dak Prescott had another underwhelming performance and took some of the Cowboys with him. And finally, not dealing with the off the field issues because we are a Fantasy Football show right now, but over the weekend, we got news that Josh Jacobs will be eligible to play in week number seven as he's going to be taking off the commissioners exempt list today. So we're going to get into how that affects Green Bay's backfield moving forward.
