00:00Brady's finally back and so are the presidential debates. Let's hash out week
00:04five and let's talk strategy for week six. I'm Rachel Besser and this is Fantasy My Way.
00:17Tom Brady had a very hot debut on Sunday versus the Cleveland Browns. He racked up
00:22406 yards and three touchdowns and really all we can say is welcome back
00:27Tommy we missed you. We also had another presidential debate on Sunday and it
00:32overlapped with the Packers game so you better believe it was difficult for me to
00:35flip through the channels going back and forth and not miss any of the action but
00:39my Packers came out with a win. An update on my team this week.
00:53Hey Besser you ready to go 1-4 this week? Loser gets the most embarrassing picture
00:57posted on social media. Let's go. Posting to my personal social media that was the
01:03last straw. I've been super hopeful the past few weeks but now I'm just angry.
01:08I'm just angry. My luck's been terrible. Whether or not my personal team scores
01:15where I want it to be I'm still hopeful. I'm gonna take it this week so let's meet
01:20my R29 opponent Emily Harris. Get to know your R29 Fantasy League owners.
01:26Emily Harris is one of R29's sales directors. Her team Toss and Balls Harris is
01:31currently two and three and is looking for a win versus good, better, Besser in week
01:36six. Besser you're going down this week. Toss and Balls Harris is gonna dominate
01:41your team. The loser has to go to the subway station and do their best performance. It's
01:46obviously going to be you because my team's gonna win. Emily I don't know if
01:52you're gonna pull it off this week but all the best to you and yours. Guess what
01:57time it is? Take a big fat juicy guess. It's time for my hot and fiery tips of the week.
02:07Pittsburgh wide receiver Sammy Coates is somebody to start. This week he hauled in
02:12139 yards and two touchdowns on 11 targets. I'm putting him as a start
02:17option because his performance is picking up and he is just 26 yards away from
02:22being the best receiver on the Steelers. Titans QB Marcus Mariota finally snapped
02:27out of his funk. With three touchdowns he might just be back in action.
02:32Stardom. It's worth seeing if he will keep his momentum against the Browns defense.
02:36Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott doesn't stop impressing me. He had two scores
02:41against a Bengals defense that had not allowed a rushing touchdown all season.
02:46He keeps getting better every game and Dallas's offensive line is starting to
02:50dominate again. Even though he's up against NFL's top-ranked run defense in
02:54Green Bay, my personal favorite team, he's showing good faith. Stardom. First
02:58person to sit is Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Marcus Wheaton. He caught two out
03:04of three targets for 19 yards on Sunday and this sit is simple. Sammy Coates is
03:10pretty much taking your job, buddy. Arizona wide receiver Michael Floyd has
03:14given us a compilation of bad games. And honestly, with quarterback Carson
03:20Palmer out, they keep getting worse. He failed to catch any of his targets this
03:25week. Sit him. Dolphins wide receiver Jarvis Landry put up five fantasy points
03:30this week, which isn't going to work for anybody. That being said, he's going up
03:35against a weak Steelers secondary next week. And as a whole, though, I'd say
03:40there are other wide receivers who are smarter to pick up and to start than
03:43Landry. First person to pick up is Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan. A simple
03:48choice for a solid pickup this week, mostly because of the instant chemistry
03:52between Hogan and Brady. With chemistry like that, Hogan will continue to be a deep
03:56threat to defenses, making him definitely worth a pickup. This week, you've got to pick up
04:0249ers wide receiver Jeremy Curley. San Francisco struggled to get their
04:06offense going, but Curley has been steady and seems to have shaken off his ankle
04:09injury. Curley will be your consistent wide receiver on an otherwise inconsistent
04:14offense. And lastly, you've got to pick up Cleveland Browns wide receiver Andrew
04:18Hawkins. Word is that Terrell Pryor may be seeing more snaps at the QB position.
04:23If so, Hawkins should be ready and rearing to go. He's hot off of a good game, and even
04:29if he doesn't fully deliver, you still might get an amazing touchdown dance, and
04:33that makes the game that much more exciting. Those were my hot tips for week
04:36six. If you have any questions going into week seven, leave a comment in the
04:40section below. I'm here to help you. Let's get it. Your team's going to do
04:45better than mine because my tips are just so hot. See you next time.
