The “Jason loves Zack Moss” bit is one of my favorites of all time because it would literally only take someone missing like 2-3 specific episodes from last season for it to go completely over their heads lol

Jason for come back podcaster of the year, dude was on fire 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@Richard__Cranium for years I've listened to the fantasy footballers and for years I see these comments of people talking about these guys like they're their best buds.

Honestly I think most of their intros are terrible and they're irrelevant they're not funny they're not entertainment and they're boring.

Anyone else skip past the Gibson part 😅

[@-lxlxlxl1427]

Yeah what’s the point haha

[@raymondespinoza420]

They really went 7-8 minutes talking about him

​@NobleVagabond2552 let us know when you start an award winning fantasy football podcast and then we can be the judge of that.

[@guidzz44]

Gibson taking over the job from Rhamondre? Cmon Mike lol

[@jackmanb9974]

Mike can be a bad take machine on God

[@Aaron_Scissorhands]

Antonio Gibson is a solid RB that has been underused his entire career. I'm definitely not saying he's better than Rhamondre, but he can be really good if used properly.

[@disableddanny96]

Cue the Sunny in Philadelphia meme where Dennis is doing the splits in denim shorts saying “I can go lower”

[@zachmassey4168]

Good to see Jason back but sad to see that Grizz is gone. Can't wait to see what you say about Jacobs. Burgers over dogs but if it's a brat that makes it a tougher choice.

[@ethandanskin2993]

4:38 what a great ITYSL reference

[@zacharycarvalho1383]

"I cut the brakes, Wildcard!" One of my top five scenes of It's Always Sunny

[@Nater9-9]

For the first time in his career, Josh Jacobs has a competent coach and a solid team around him. Hard not to be optimistic about him. The only question mark is how much does Marshawn Lloyd cut into his time?

[@TreyDubois]

An opening about Jason being the ultimate Glizzy Gobbler is INSANE

[@texanfilms]

”I said that with my words?” 😂

[@dominicguzzetti989]

The Jason-turn and then comeback on his in or out on Jameson was so friggin funny. Bravo

[@Kingjped]

First episode for me in a while. Boy was this a good one to get me hooked again. Hilarious today!

[@gorufio01]

My favorite Tuesday show. Thanks for the info fellas.

[@N2Flashy]

It’s great to have Jason back man

[@Nater9-9]

Where’s he been? I haven’t been watching this offseason

[@N2Flashy]

@@Nater9-9 he was gone all last week, on vacation

[@nathano9165]

I feel like JaMo needs some leeway for his injury and then suspension when talking about why he hasn't produced as much

[@joseffinch4385]

When he has gotten the ball he has been amazing. They didn't draft a WR and let Reynolds leave. I think he is primed for a breakout personally. Somewhere similar but better than Shaheed. Goff's opening games are at home and I think JW is going to be a game winner early. Depending on how rookie drafts go he's starting for me in my Flex

[@matttrapani757]

as a lions fan i seriously think he puts up numbers this year

[@DrewSorensenMusic]

No

[@Wonderwall627]

He needs more volume. Hoping it happens this year or it won't

[@ryanhudson3064]

thats what happens when all you do is sit and look at stats all day vs actually remembering why those stats are the case

[@sethford7642]

Now we need the dynasty podcast!!!

[@the_snicklefritz]

“Scientific doctoring” had me laughing out loud 😂

[@masonrouthier7764]

I actually really like the Gibson take. With the lack of pass catchers in NE, he could definitely outproduce his adp by a big margin

[@NobleVagabond2552]

2:40 genuinely made me lol

[@chrisdavis723]

lol Mike will not give up on Gibson, he is delirious

[@maceomaceo11]

You aren't aware of the numbers. Which seems to be common. Fine with me, I'll burn that 13th rd pick on what has been a top 30 back (or better, mostly better actually) every year of his career

[@spykefl]

Andy saying.. " im shocked you want to have this conversation" to mike about gibson.. is all of us.

[@TheeLavv]

Mixox obviously has always seen volume but using last seasons numbers while burrow was injured doesn't paint the whole picture. To me seems like a messy committee where they'll keep legs fresh and throw a ton more than last year.

[@Hossyboy420]

Ayeee good to see ya Jason

[@Diggler569]

Chase Brown is a better runner, is more explosive, and is a better pass catcher than Zack Moss. Moss is not capable of handling a consistent 80 to 90% snapshare week in and week out, he is a good back but the money doesnt scream "starting rb". This is an RBBC through and through.

[@LuckyChuckie_FF]

Them neckercises are brutal man. Let me tell you. Hahaha. Great stuff gents.

[@yuuking3183]

I am now expecting a “places hotdogs are sold” draft on the spitballers! 😂

[@Dean-il4mv]

Hey FOOTBALLERS. I'm 60. 50 year Steelers fan. Freiemuth is the Value. Not Pickens

[@mister_padilla6105]

Shhhhhhh.

[@Nater9-9]

Fields is the value. Wilson is a clown and will be watching tape from the bench on how to train elephants. I think Fields might light it up. Muth is fine too.

[@mister_padilla6105]

@@Nater9-9 lmao 👀 fields?

[@Mac_Raymond]

I hope so...I've been snatching him up late

[@brendan7704]

I don’t understand the love for Olave. Drafting him in the first two rounds is just crazy to me. He’s too inconsistent, Carr isn’t trustworthy and there are better players to take where Olave is being taken

[@137Ebay]

Russell wilson has produced WR 28 and 45 over the last 2 years. I'm not touching Pickens.

[@MNDrummer]

Last year was slim Pickens. This year should be seeing the Pickens cross the road and getting TDs on the other side.

Nathans Hot Dogs are where it’s at!

[@Kam216d]

This whole episode was hilarious 😂😂

[@Kam216d]

I think Gibson is gonna surprise a lot of people. The Patriots championship teams always used multiple backs. It’s true that they have a new coach but he’s been with organization for years, it’s very possible he wants to get back to that philosophy. Especially since Gibson has some strengths that Rhamondre doesn’t have. Not saying Gibson will be a top fantasy back but there is definitely value there.

[@caelanrobinson3353]

Don’t sleep on the street meat fella’s. Few things are more satisfying than a good bacon wrapped hot dog from the street!

[@eastcoasttaffy74]

Jason’s Voice: “I can go lower” 👀

[@Jaf9841]

OBJ had hamstring issues as a rookie that he corrected with offseason training

[@Thuase]

Jamo is going to break out this year. Mark my words.

[@barrymcbain1360]

I don’t know I think Antonio Gibson was going to patriots just because they lost zeke. I say Rhamondre Stevenson still gets a lot of work.

[@funkcomics814]

Jason needs to try smith's hotdogs from erie pa!!! The best Hotdogs in the world!!

[@LogiBearzMusic]

Nexercise!

[@bryanalicea6037]

I’ve been high on Pickens and talent wise had him over olave before nfa draft Wilson, Pickens, drake, olave, jamo, burks

[@jerwwilliams]

I would be higher on him if he got separation. Having inaccurate QBs like Pickett and Trubisky didn't help. Mr. Unlimited should be a huge improvement for him this year.

[@jackanooga]

I agree with Mike on the Gibson take. Gonna be fun to go back to Andy's absolute rejection to even consider the notion.

[@michaelfusciardi550]

Zero injury concern for Lamar regarding the slimming down. He bulked up and then had his two injuries (bruised ankle and sprained PCL) and neither injury could have been helped or hurt by more or less bulk.

[@Steve-td5xu]

Gibson could be super sneaky

[@gorunjw]

Hebrew National with the free plug! I’m craving a hot dog now 😊

[@Dean-il4mv]

I'm pretty sure Freiemuth is going to easily be a 5 for 50 and 6TDs. And would not surprise me if he gets 6 for 60 and 8 TDs

[@johncarty4162]

Huge fan of the show but y’all always ignore the fact that Zay flowers and Jameson Williams have damn near started the same amount of games. The man hasn’t has a real 2 years in the league

[@mickvasq21]

Lol you guys sound just like the underground tribe in Black Panther when they first make their entrance! “Wildcard!”

[@maskcollector6949]

Great takes on Antonio Gibson as a WAS fan. We all love him but BRob is our dude, we'll all still watch him in NE. People are sleeping on him bigtime. I def think he could overtake Rhomondre.

[@codyjbradley]

Just went back to the oldest vid on this channel. HOLY CRAP Jason and Andy both sounds so different! Mike sounds different - but barely. When jason would speak I thought it was Brooks 😂😂

[@Saotome94]

Whats the difference between doctoring, forgering, and replicating

[@NobleVagabond2552]

[@joshuafoltz5222]

I don't care how good JAMO is, he's 4th in the pecking order. At best. Not a roller-coaster you wanna ride. Gabe Davis?

[@brianhalleran1989]

You left out how bad McDaniels was at coaching and how much the team improved with AP

[@fwant2729]

Rhamondre was Mikes RB3 overall last year lmao he is clearly scorned 😂

[@Dean-il4mv]

And There is a situation where Freiemuth is the slot receiver. half the time 40:39

[@GameStarGreen]

How are they so high on Moss based on that contract? 100% undermining Chase Brown’s involvement on the team, who could be ahead of Moss for all we know

[@bswest5]

Andy, sorry to tell you, but I went back to the oldest episode you have on KZbin and Jason’s isn’t the only voice that sounds nothing like it did back then

[@chadclark321]

Chasa Brown will beat out Moss. And Jamo is talented as they come and perfect fit. Hes option 5 on the team. Amon, Laporta, and 2 stud RBs

[@dominicguzzetti989]

Gibson. Really? No one needs to draft him. He’s valuable if Stevenson goes down but he’s still not the guy there in full if that.

[@patrickm8595]

I'll tell y'all the secret to hot dogs. ALL-BEEF hotdogs are delicious. They will specifically state on the package that they are all beef. The rest of them are almost always a pork-chicken-beef hodgepodge and they are terrible.

[@gretz_]

Regina: Stop trying to make GIbson happen. It's not going to happen!

[@bigdyl23]

Mike sold me on Gibson ngl 😂

[@booch8067]

I’m playing a keeper league and need three people. I have CJ Stroud, David Montgomery, Laporta, Kamara, Bijan, Mike Evans, and James Conner who should I keep?

[@fwant2729]

CJ LaPorta and Bijian is a really nice core

[@AaronR88]

Really think Jameson Williams problem is his strengths are not where Goff likes to throw.

[@VinegarAndSaltedFries]

My worry with Etienne isn’t so much him as it’s how often the team will put Tank on the field in goal line situations. Etienne is awesome but the team has been telling us it wants to limit his usage to in between the 20’s for both years now. Now Bigsby wasn’t good enough and they even had Johnson on the field last season a bunch but taking away TD’s should definitely bring down his ADP. Right now in Best Balls he’s going to high. Also A lot and I menn A lot of people are underselling Roman Wilson. He will instantly step into the role of Number 2 and is almost guaranteed 600-900 yards . I love Pickens he can certainly take a leap but don’t sleep on Roman. It’s only may but in best balls and dynasty redrafts he is an amazing value for guaranteed contribution.

[@MichaelHawkins-yd6ge]

I hated roman Wilson as prospect but fact steelers like him makes me like him been taking him a ton steelers pretty good at evaluating wrs

[@sjay007]

Andy's take on Chase Brown vs Antonio Gibson. I no likey

[@matthewheywood8532]

The biggest thing that has always and will once again stop Antonio Gibson from being fantasy relevant is the fact he is a fumbler . He has a HUGE fumbling problem that always leads to him being benched. Unless he fixes that he will once again be irrelevant

[@brentinnes5151]

Moss was nothing till Taylor went down...sure he thrived for 3 games..now he is the Marino of rbs
