00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: advice from Guillotine Leagues dot com. Here's your host. Welcome

00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: to Fantasy Football Weekly. I am Paul Charchi and co

00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: host today are Scott Fish and Brian Johnson. Hello, guys,

7
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 1: Hey Church, Oh high, Scott, how are you hey? Let's

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: go to also, yeah, back, that's been a little while

9
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: lost to get to. Over the course of this show,

10
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: we will, as always get to the nine players upon

11
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: whom you can take a chance. We will answer three

12
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 1: tough questions, we'll give you some premature speculation, and we'll

13
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: break down every matchup Fantasy Football Weekly style with letter

14
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: grades on all the players you care about. And we

15
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: begin with the Eagles taking the Colts. Scott, Eagles need

16
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 1: to bounce back performance here, cold Squeaky Wheel maybe a

17
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: squeaky Wheel game performances. I'm really glad that you brought

18
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: that up, because yes, it could be right there. And

19
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: who would be the squeaky wheel player here? Yeah, I

20
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: think it's probably got to be a J. Brown after

21
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: his kind of dud last week. But did he squeak?

22
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 1: I don't think he squeaked, but I think saks. I

23
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: think the whole team is squeaking this. They're just not

24
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: doing it publicly. He's there squeaking behind the scenes, squeaking. Yes,

25
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: we've got an automatic A on Jail and Hurts. You

26
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: aren't mentioning him anyway. Colts isn't a great matchup. They

27
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: don't a loot of ton of yards passing, but six

28
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 1: of the ten quarterbacks they faced had multiple scores. They've

29
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: given up three rushing scorts. Hurts tends to do that.

30
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: So a grade there. I got a B grade on

31
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: A J. Brown. You're not mentioning him. He had add

32
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: last week. As we just mentioned, um, I would expect

33
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: the Colts to run a ton and try to emulate

34
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: what Washington did. But Brown had five touchdowns in the

35
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: three previous games, and Philly is angry and that that's

36
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: squeaky wheel man. I got it. I got He's got

37
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: to say something could be a squeaky win. I don't know.

38
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: The Colts are number one against the slot though, which

39
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: is where Brown often plays. So that's why I only

40
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: have a B grade. I think it's gonna be a

41
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: lot of running and Uh. Over to DeVante Smith. I

42
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: have a bench grade on him. Over the last five weeks,

43
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: only two wide receivers have top fifty yards on the Colts.

44
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: That was Terry McLaurin. We don't have Matt here for

45
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 1: the sound or we should get that on the board.

46
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: Uh and DeVante Adams and it took eight plus targets

47
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: for each to get there. I think I think Brown

48
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: is the more likely guy to have a good day.

49
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: It's not outside the realm of the possibilities. But the

50
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: number two wide receiver has done almost nothing against the Colts.

51
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: The best best game from a number two wide receiver

52
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: against the Colts was fifty three yards and that took

53
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: eight targets. DeVante Smith doesn't usually get that kind of volume.

54
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: And Smith such a boom or bust guy, and this

55
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: feels like a bust game. I'm with you very day.

56
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: It does. It does. We don't just keep an eye

57
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: on what the tight end situation happens. It might be

58
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: six ft seven Tyree Jackson that takes that role. It

59
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: might be Stole. Keep an eye on it, but I

60
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: don't I have him on the bench for this but

61
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: don't you think that with Goddard out that's there are

62
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 1: going to be a lot more targets to spread around

63
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: at fed that way Once again, I think, I think

64
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,079
Speaker 1: Indianapolis keeps this game on the ground and keeps it

65
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: a slow pace where maybe it's not as many targets

66
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: as a normal game. So you're telling me you like

67
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders a lot. I do like Miles Sanders. I

68
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: gotta B grade on on Sanders. The Colts d is

69
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: allowing the most running back touches per game against them

70
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: at over thirty, but only a three point eight yards

71
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: per carry. But the volume should be there for the

72
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: clear number one in a potent offense. That's already that

73
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: he's being very effective with his lower touch accounts and

74
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: getting goal line work. And the weird thing is no

75
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: catches for three straight for Miles Sanders. He can catch there,

76
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: just they don't throw. Yeah, that's part of the B grade.

77
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: Not a lot of catching. And he's only top to

78
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: eighty yards twice at it took seventeen plus touches to

79
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: get there. So just a B grade for him. Kenneth

80
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: Gainwell I have on the bench. I at first thought,

81
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: oh the Colts are fourth have allowed the fourth most receptions,

82
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: most receiving yards. That originally had me thinking gag Well's

83
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: the sneaky play here. He doesn't catch that much either.

84
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,039
Speaker 1: The Eagles have under a hundred receiving yards total out

85
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: of their running backs in this entire season, not even

86
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: a single performance over twenty two yards. They don't throw

87
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: with Godard out right right, it's possible, Yeah, it's it's possible.

88
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: On the other side, Matt Ryan had to find against

89
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: one of the easiest QB match matchups possible last week,

90
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: but only through times. It seems like this new Jeff

91
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: Saturday offense is gonna run a lot like that is

92
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 1: the ticket to beating the Eagles and doing it on

93
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: the ground exactly, and Washington laid that blueprint. So with

94
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: low volume, I don't want Ryan in my starting lineup.

95
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: I will say I do have se grades on both

96
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 1: Pittman and Campbell because is Ryan is Ryan in his

97
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: last three games, is hyper targeting those two and basically

98
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 1: just those two twenty six targets for Pittman, h thirty

99
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,679
Speaker 1: four for thirty four for Pittman, twenty nine for Campbell

100
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: in those three games. Um, everybody else just fourteen total targets.

101
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: Guys who have gotten that kind of target volume have

102
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: been in the mid sixties to a hundred yards against

103
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: the Eagles. I think I think we can see those

104
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,119
Speaker 1: two get eight to ten targets and decent sea level games. Uh.

105
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know what to make of

106
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: the tight ends. They're all switching up, and now it's

107
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: Kyle Grandson's turns, so I have them on the bench

108
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 1: right now has been ruled out of this game. So

109
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: if you're desperate for a duard threat, and I do

110
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: think Grandson's Grandson's starting to emerge, but it's it's one game.

111
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: It's one game, so I'm not gonna anoint it the

112
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: changing of the guard here in this one. When the

113
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: changing of the guard comes, it's coming for Gilani Woods, Okay, there,

114
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: it might be like he was my number two tight

115
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: end coming out of this of this rookie class. I

116
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: like him a lot. Automackab automatic A Automackay is that

117
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: a thing something a guy? Doesn't it? Oh? Man? Automatic?

118
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 1: A for Jonathan Taylor, they're running a ton Washington laid

119
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: the breuprint. We've talked about this a bunch. I don't

120
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 1: even talk about Jonathan tayl you don't, but just let

121
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: me say this, how great was that breakaway run from

122
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor last week that we brought you back to

123
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: last year like he was doing that once a half

124
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 1: last year and did just finally get the breakaway touchdown.

125
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: We're sitting here worried that he'd be shut down, that

126
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: that anko would bother him all year, and then you're like, oh, okay, okay,

127
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: all right, all right, yeah, let's go to the Brown's

128
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: taking on the Bills. Brian, This game would have been

129
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: far more interesting had it been played in Buffalo. No,

130
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: it would not. Respective we want points, yeah, reality football wants.

131
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: I love the Blizzard games. Both of the Ruddy backs

132
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: would have been shorter than the snowfall, though, so there's

133
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: something to that. It would have been all Nick Chubb,

134
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: go straight ahead. I was. I was very excited. But

135
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: now we're gonna be in the antiseptic Ford field with

136
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: perfect weather conditions whatever suited first shootout. I'm much happier

137
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,119
Speaker 1: this way. But uh, we'll start with the Cleveland side

138
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 1: and Nick Chubb, who will not be plowing through the snow,

139
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: giving him an a Since Week eight, the Bills are

140
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: allowing seven rushing yards per game to running backs, the

141
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: second most in the league. During that span, Chub is

142
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: averaging five point seven yards per carry. This year, It's

143
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: an eight teen carries per game, which is a lot.

144
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: He's only seen twenty twenty carries are more three times

145
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: though so far. But in each of those three games,

146
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: Cleveland has won. And you wanna know how many wins

147
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: Cleveland has three, So feed Nick Chubb in this game.

148
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: Also definitely worth noting. Winebacker Tremaine Edmonds has been ruled

149
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: out for the Bills, which outstanding. Also very good coverage

150
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: of linebacker and that could affect David and joke if

151
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: he ends up playing. Yeah, this we'll talk more about

152
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: the Bills defense, but not as scary as it was

153
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: earlier in the season. But I still have Kareem Hunt

154
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: on the bench. Over his last four games, Hunt has

155
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: gotten double digit double digit carries just once. He's topped

156
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: one catch just once during that same span, and there's

157
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: not really a pass catching angle here. The Bills have

158
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 1: allowed one running back to top thirty receiving yards and

159
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: they and they've surrendered just two scores to the position

160
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: through the air over the wide receivers a MARII Cooper

161
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: gets a B. I was going to mention his horrific

162
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: home in a way splits, but I can't really do

163
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: that now it's kind of a neutral site. What I

164
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: do know is a corner of factor. Davious White will

165
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 1: not make his return for the Bills. It seems like

166
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: we've been waiting on that weekend and week out. But

167
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: that bodes well for Cooper as well. In Buffalo. Has

168
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:55,319
Speaker 1: surrendered five wide receiver touchdowns and toward receiver performances performances

169
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: over the last four games. So a B for Cooper

170
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: and I see for Donovan people's jones might take it

171
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: handsome me wide receiver from last week. I think you

172
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: get for that yards, but we'll take five. How about

173
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: a touchdown? He has get the score, but at least

174
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: seventy receiving yards in five of his last six games.

175
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: But most importantly, I did the research here, guys. He

176
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,599
Speaker 1: was born in Detroit University of Michigan. This is like

177
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: a platinum homecoming. It's not like just the college is

178
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: a home something born and raised. Oh yeah, you know,

179
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 1: you're not playing in the enemy stadium. You're playing in

180
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: a neutral site stadium where all your fans, your family

181
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: can come, so it's super sed. Yeah, we're moving it

182
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 1: up to a B. I'm going to A. Yeah. I'm

183
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: getting too excited people, I'm almost deep pantsed right now.

184
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: I'm so excited about this homecoming, So a B J pants.

185
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna move on to the tight ends now with

186
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: David and Joku. Give him a sea. Sounds like he'll

187
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: make his return. Uh this week. The Bills are allowing

188
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: more than five catches per game to tight ends, which

189
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: is kind of a mouth watering production in the tight

190
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: end waste land. So we'll take that. So see for

191
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: in Joco if he goes and if he somehow sits,

192
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: I would give that see to Harrison Bryant like I

193
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: did last week and lastly Jacoby Brissette borderline see, but

194
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: I have him on the bench. The Bill steps are

195
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: rendered zero or one passing touchdowns in seven of nine games.

196
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: Only Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers were able to throw

197
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 1: for multiple scores against them, but both that too, so

198
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: buffaloizing can allowed three touchdowns yeah this year, and mostly

199
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: two were one. So Prisette on the bench over the

200
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 1: Bill side Devin Singletary gets a B. Over his last

201
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: four his volume has been on the rise, averaging thirteen

202
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: carries as opposed to only eight through the first five weeks.

203
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 1: The Browns were just torched for three total touchdowns by

204
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: by Miami's back, so Singletary should be a solid start.

205
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: Of course, Stephan Digs as a solid start, he gets

206
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: an A. Even though the Browns has held Tyreek Hill

207
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: and Jalen Waddle to combined one ten yards and no

208
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: loan receiver has top seventy yards against Cleveland over the

209
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: last four they have surrendered five wide received for touchdowns

210
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 1: during that span. So in a for Digs and for

211
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: those reasons, those same reasons you gotta give Gabe Davis

212
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: to be. You play him when he's healthy, and he

213
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: is this week, So solid start for him. Not a

214
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: solid start for Dawson Knox, but I'll still give him

215
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: a SEA because again it's the tight end waste land.

216
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: There aren't many options out there. There they are. I

217
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: will never forget on our serious x M show, I

218
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: had to our producer had me sing that tight end

219
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: wasteland to rally Wasteland. I wasn't on that. I feel

220
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: like I was on the show. But anyway, anyway, we

221
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: don't care about serious XM radio here, so you can

222
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: roll with Knox in a pinch, but temporary expectations. The

223
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 1: Browns are allowing just three catches and forty four yards

224
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: per game to tight ends, and they've surrendered just one

225
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,599
Speaker 1: score to the position. And lastly, Josh Allen gets in

226
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 1: a the elbow doesn't seem like it's that much of

227
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: a concern anymore. No, but no, here's the thing that

228
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: you need to know about Josh Allen is zero designed

229
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: runs last week because of the elbow. None clear. You

230
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,599
Speaker 1: know a week later, you know, is that going to

231
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: be still in place? No design runs take some of

232
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: the ceiling off. Josh Allen some four yards and scrambles,

233
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: but it's not you know, it's not the same as

234
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: the designed runs. And so I think a little that

235
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: ceiling that you normally get with Josh Allen is not

236
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: in place here. When we come back, take a chance

237
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: on me nine players not normally a new starting lineup.

238
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: Any of these guys available on the waiver wire. Find

239
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 1: out who they are. When we come back to Fantasy

240
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: Football Weekly, take a chance on me nine players who

241
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: you would not normally start many of these guys available

242
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire. We begin at the quarterback position.

243
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: Scott Fish, Who you got? I have Jimmy Garoppolo. In

244
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: his last four game versus the Cardinals. Uh. Since he's

245
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: been with the four Niners for those interdivisional battles, he

246
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 1: averages three thirty one yards and three scores per game.

247
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: He blows up on them every time owns the Cards.

248
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: Pair that with the fact that Cardinals ranked third worst

249
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: against fantasy quarterbacks, giving up the fourth most yards, fifth

250
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: most passing touchdowns, and also being bottom ten and many

251
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: other metrics. I got Jimmy g I like it. Brian,

252
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 1: your take a chance at me quarterback? I got Kenny

253
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: p Kenny Pickett at home against the Bengals, who should

254
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,199
Speaker 1: see the return of cornerback Mike Hilton, but corner Trey

255
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: Flowers and safety Dax Hill are banged up, might not

256
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: play since he's best corner Hidobe Ausier certainly won't play,

257
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: so I'm liking pick it a lot. This week. The

258
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: Bengals have only allowed multiple passing touchdowns once. That was

259
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield in Week nine. That's not eight. But listen

260
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: to the quarterbacks the Bengals have faced this season Mitch Rubiskie,

261
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush, Joe Flacco, Teddy Bridgewater, Andy Dalton, Marcus Mariotta,

262
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 1: and Jacoby Rissette. That's all. That's the full list. There's

263
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson and they knocked out too. But like basically,

264
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: pick it might be the best pass thrower of the

265
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: based season. So I like Pickett. All right, I'm gonna

266
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: take Danny j As might take a chance of me

267
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: quarterback against Chicago posing quarterbacks averaging a healthy two hundred

268
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: sixty six yards and almost two touchdowns against the Lions.

269
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: But the big angle on Daniel Jones is on the ground.

270
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: Detroit has been housed by mobile quarterbacks like Jalen Hurts,

271
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: Gino Smith, Justin Fields, who combined for four touchdowns against

272
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: the Lions. Fields rolled up hundred forty seven rushing yards

273
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: against the Lions last week. And still I like I

274
00:14:56,040 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: like Jones both air and ground. This week, go to

275
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: the running back position, Scott, I have my good buddy

276
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: Tyler algae here. I don't know if become good buddy. Uh.

277
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 1: This is the fourth best matchup he's got this week

278
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: against the Bears, who just got rid of ro Kuwan

279
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: Smith and Robert Quinn. To make it even easier, they've

280
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: allowed seven running back touchdowns in just the last three weeks.

281
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: You might think the Atlanta back field seems a bit

282
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: of a mess, but Algier is out snapping him, out

283
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: out snapping Cordaro Patterson out touching him. He's getting more

284
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: pass game work than Patterson, who weirdly only has six

285
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: catches for thirty nine yards on the year. He's getting

286
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: nothing in the past game Patterson is. Algier is getting

287
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: more of the work. He gets almost thirteen touches every

288
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: single game. I got Tyler Algier in a great matchup

289
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: against the Bears. All right, you're running back. I'm going

290
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: Jalen Warren again, who I used last week, and he

291
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: was serviceable. Over the last two weeks. Warren his average

292
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: ten and a half touches and seventies six combo yards

293
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: per game. He's pretty good, as further evidence by the

294
00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: fact he's fifteenth in yards after a contact per attempt

295
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: among running backs and his ranked five in Pro Football

296
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: Focuses Elusive rating. And lastly, the Bengals have softened against

297
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: the run since Week five, allowing the sixth most rushing

298
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: yards per game and the second highest explosive run rate.

299
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: Explosive output should be here for all. There's a lot

300
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: of explosiveness here. Isaiah Pacheco is your new lead back

301
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 1: for the Chiefs since gaining the starting work and back

302
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: to back weeks. Last week a career high sixteen carries.

303
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: Now you may be thinking that's not that much sixteen carries.

304
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: The previous starter, Clyde Edwards Despair, had topped sixteen carries

305
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: once in his last twenty four games. So this is

306
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: a pretty strong statement by Andy Reid, who was clearly

307
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: finally shaken off the sunk cost fallacy of the first

308
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: round blunder that was Clyde Edwards Despair. Well got just

309
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: four snaps last week. Well, and the Chiefs made a

310
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: claim on you know, ben In They didn't, but they

311
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: were ready. Yeah, Ronald Jones still in roster, probably would

312
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: have been the guy out. Um, how is Pacheco doing

313
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: so far? Four point seven yards per carry is pretty good.

314
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 1: His eighty two yards last week were the most by

315
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 1: a Chiefs runner in twenty six games. Great matchup this week.

316
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 1: Los Angeles has surrendered one d seventy rushing yards per

317
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: game to running backs over their last three games and

318
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: they ranked twenty nine and run defense by Pro Football Focus.

319
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 1: Isaiah Pochecko, Let's go to the receivers. Scott Fish, who

320
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: you got? Yeah? In the receiving game, I have Darius

321
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: Tony who will we will definitely talk about later. But

322
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: also MVS is currently Marquez Valdes Scantling is sick right now,

323
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: Juju Smith Schuster has been ruled out already, Mikole Hartman

324
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,719
Speaker 1: is out, and on I R. It's basically Tony and

325
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: Sky Moore and Justin Watson for the Kansas City Chiefs

326
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 1: going up against a Chargers defense that is bottom ten

327
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: in both receptions allowed and receiving touchdowns allowed to wide receivers.

328
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: All right, Brian, you take a chance for me receiver.

329
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: I didn't envision this. I was hoping, hoping to be

330
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: giving him a grades at this point in the season.

331
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: But I have Alan Robinson at the I'm sorry at

332
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: the At the Saints, we all know Cooper Cup is

333
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,639
Speaker 1: on I R. So there are vacated targets everywhere. I

334
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,239
Speaker 1: think it's over thirty percent of the Rams targets are

335
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: now vacated with Cup on I R. The Saints have

336
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: also been awaiting the return of cornerback Marshawn Lattimore, but

337
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 1: he has been ruled out for the remainder of the season,

338
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: so that's not happening. Robinson had a thirty four percent

339
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 1: slot rate this season before Cup went down, so those

340
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: snaps should go up. He'll also get plenty of work

341
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: on the outside. I just think they get creative with

342
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 1: him where they tried to. The Saints have allowed the

343
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: tenth most yards per game to opposing wide receivers. Are

344
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: a ton of wide receivers and on the rams now,

345
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: but Robinson's my guy. I think Deante Johnson counts as

346
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 1: a g a chance of me receiver at this point.

347
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: He has not scored this year. It's gone nine games. Well,

348
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: he and Robinson were going like in the fourth round

349
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: late in summer draft. So if I use a rob

350
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 1: you can use I think that counts. Um. Although granted,

351
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: mims To Brisky and Kenny Pickett have not thrown from

352
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: multiple scores in any game, which so it's probably much

353
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: more on the quarterback position than on Johnson himself. Um

354
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: he was. He played Cincinnati this week's opponent a week one,

355
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,640
Speaker 1: put up a decent game, seven catches, fifty five yards

356
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: his primary defender, and you alluded to this earlier rookie

357
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: backup Cam Taylor Britt Brian, who allowed a score last week,

358
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 1: and he's giving up a perfect passer rating in the

359
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: three games in which he has substituted for injured cornerback

360
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 1: Chidobe Awuzier. So we'll try Deonte Johnson. Let's see we

361
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: can get him in the end zone first time this year.

362
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: Let's go from a Deontay to a Deonta. As we

363
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: look at the Panthers taking on the Ravens. Deanta Foreman

364
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 1: is the Panther you care about the most three big

365
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: games and one dud game since the Christian McCaffrey trade.

366
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 1: I'm actually a little bit worried about how much a

367
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: healthy Tuba Hubbard is going to work into his work

368
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 1: eat into his workload. But if Foreman's anywhere near his

369
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 1: average of twenty carries per game, he's gonna be just

370
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 1: fine here. And here's let me just explain a little

371
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 1: bit more about why I'm worried. So Hubbard came back.

372
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 1: He was questionable going into last week's game. That was

373
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: a Thursday night game, and it was in the rain,

374
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: and I think They just didn't want to risk the

375
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 1: ankle injury on a slick surface when you've got a

376
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 1: big power back like form and running forward, so they

377
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,400
Speaker 1: gave for him and all the work. I think Hubbard's

378
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: gonna eat into this workload much much more than people realize,

379
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 1: and I'm nervous about that with Foreman here. Baltimore has

380
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 1: yet to allow running back to top ninety one rushing yards,

381
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 1: but has a lot of four touchdowns in the last

382
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: four weeks, So hopefully Foreman can get goal line work

383
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: here and he gets a B grade. Hubbard is startable.

384
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: I've got the C grade on him for the reasons

385
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: I just talked about. I think I think he is

386
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 1: going to get more used than most people realize. Um

387
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: also medium and basically a neutral style matchup. And the

388
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,479
Speaker 1: last time Hubbard was healthy, he ran for sixty three

389
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: yards on a touchdown. So startable here, and then the

390
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: only other Panther you care about is d J. Moore.

391
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: Last week's four catch twenty nine yard performance against the

392
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: league's worst past defense does not give you a lot

393
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 1: of confidence in starting more this week against Baltimore, coming

394
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 1: off of by and with Baker Mayfield under center in

395
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: five full games with Baker Mayfield d J. Moore's averaging

396
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: thirty nine yards and zero point two touchdowns. That's it, um.

397
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: I think the only way you can rationalize starting more,

398
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: who I've got a bench grade on, is if you

399
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 1: believe the Ravens will jump to a big early lead

400
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: and it's going to be all passing for the rest

401
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 1: of the game. But I don't see that happen. I

402
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: don't necessarily see that happening because the Ravens offense just

403
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 1: hasn't done that much this year. So d J Moore

404
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,199
Speaker 1: bench great. Let's go to the Baltimore side, speaking of

405
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: under underwhelming offenses, as I alluded to, and I hate

406
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: sound like a broken record because I I do Baltimore

407
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 1: a lot, and I've talked about Lamar Jackson many times

408
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 1: in the show. The passing just isn't going very well

409
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 1: and as rushing doesn't automatically make up for it. Get

410
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: this from week four forward. Lamar Jackson is quarterback twenty two.

411
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: That feels like a guy you should have sabotaged drop

412
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: a three weeks ago when we were talking about absolutely

413
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:24,119
Speaker 1: His average game since then is one hundred sixty nine

414
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: passing yards, one passing touchdown, sixty five rushing yards and

415
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 1: no rushing touchdowns. That's Lamar Jackson's average average grant game

416
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 1: over the last effectively six weeks. Pathers secondary took a

417
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 1: huge loss with with the injury to star cornerback Dante Jackson,

418
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,160
Speaker 1: who has done for the year after suffering a torn

419
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 1: achilles But Baltimore's lack of wide out talent is just

420
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: is just so thin. I can't tell you that Jackson's

421
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 1: gonna bounce back here. I can do no more than

422
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 1: a B grade on Jackson and drop it to a

423
00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 1: C grade if Mark Andrews does not play, So let's

424
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: talk through. Andrews still working his way through knee and

425
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 1: shoulder injuries. Looks like he's headed for a game time decision.

426
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,719
Speaker 1: The Ravens desperately need him, and he's got strong individual

427
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: matchups if he does play. Safety Miles hearts Field allows

428
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 1: the most receptions and yards of any safety in the league,

429
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: and linebacker Shack Thompson has allowed the sixth most receptions

430
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: and seventh most yards of any linebacker in coverage this season.

431
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,479
Speaker 1: So if Andrews starts, I'm giving him a B grade.

432
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: If he doesn't go and you inject Isaiah likely will

433
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 1: give him a C grade. If Andrews does not go

434
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: all right, all the receivers are on the bench. What

435
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 1: a total disaster these guys are. Get this, The entire

436
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: Baltimore position group is averaging sixty five receiving yards since

437
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: Rashod Bateman's injury. Sixty divided three ways tells you why

438
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: you're not starting Prochet, DuVernay Robinson any of those guys.

439
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: Then let's go to the running game. Sed Words gets

440
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: a C grade. Might not be back to a full

441
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: workload off his hamstring injury, but in the same situation

442
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,719
Speaker 1: we saw earlier this year, the Ravens instantly loaded him

443
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: up with sixteen carries, and in that one full game,

444
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,360
Speaker 1: he led the running backs with four red zone carries

445
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 1: and rewarded Greg Romans confidence with two touchdowns. In that game.

446
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 1: The Panthers have seen the fifth most rushing attempts, which

447
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: has led them to surrendering the sixth most rushing yards

448
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 1: and the six most touchdowns to opposing backs. Gus Edwards

449
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: gets a C grade on the prospects of a touchdown,

450
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 1: and Kenyan Drake can also be started with a C

451
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: grade and bumb them up to a B grade if

452
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: it turns out Gus can't go. And even if Gus plays,

453
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 1: though he is startable in this game, he'll need to

454
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: score from distance, though, as Gus likely gets goal line carries,

455
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: Drake probably gets more total carries in this game. The

456
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,679
Speaker 1: Ravens wide receivers as a whole have eight hundred and

457
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: forty five yards. That's it, gosh, I mean Tyree Hill

458
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: Marks Brown has four d eighty five yards. He's played

459
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: in sixths. He's probably on base for the more receiving yard.

460
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: It's the old team you left, all right, but that

461
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: that traded him, he didn't leave them. That sounds right, Uh,

462
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 1: Scotty Falcons. Le'll see if we can knock this thing

463
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: down in about three and a half four minutes. Okay, well,

464
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: Justin Fields is gonna getting a gray. The QB one

465
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: back to back weeks is almost an auto a right

466
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: now with his rushing upside. I came I figured this

467
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: out to this week. I've been ranking guys for twenty

468
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,640
Speaker 1: five years. Don't believe I've ever ranked a Bears quarterback

469
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: as my number one play going into a week until

470
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 1: this week. First time. Yeah, against that Atlanta defense is

471
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 1: one quick one quick angle. Sorry no one has mentioned this.

472
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: The Bear or the Falcons probably could have taken justin

473
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: fields last year and it would have made sense. Grooving

474
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 1: the quarterback of the future. Revenge took Kyle Pitts instead.

475
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 1: Spike game justin fields. Spike game over there. Okay, it's

476
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: an easy against the bottom six past past defense. Uh Mooney,

477
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 1: I gotta b grade on is still the really the

478
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: only startable wide receiver for the Bears. Clay was only

479
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: playing about a third of the snaps. No one else

480
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: is really uh really a good start there. This is

481
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 1: the number one easiest matchup for opposing wide receivers. Posing

482
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 1: wide receivers specifically average seven catches for ninety six yards

483
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: and a score against the Falcons. That's really Mooney's role

484
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: in this offense. We'll see if he gets there. But

485
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: he's had double digit Fantasy days and three the last four.

486
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 1: You should feel pretty good about a start here. Co

487
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 1: comet a grade. Five touchdowns in the last three games

488
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 1: is totally sustainable. That's just it's absolutely gonna keep happening.

489
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 1: Maybe not, but the Falcons are allowing six catches for

490
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 1: sixty yards to tight end tight ends on average this year,

491
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 1: but only just one score, so we'll see how that

492
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: mashes up. It's hard to tell, but four to five

493
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: catches and forties seventy yards feel safe in this matchup

494
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: here for Commet A grade over to David Montgomery. Somehow

495
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 1: there are three A grade bears. How is this possible?

496
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: With Commet quietly or a top five offense and David

497
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 1: Montgomery With Leal Herbert now on I R. Montgomery is

498
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 1: going to get the overwhelming majority of the backfield trust

499
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: and Ebner is the only other back they have on

500
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 1: roster who has had a touch this year. In Montgomery's

501
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: missed game, Herbert took it twenty plus touches. I'm gonna

502
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: guess it's gonna be similar with Herbert gon Montgomery is

503
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 1: gonna flip it and take twenty plus touches. He has

504
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: fifteen plus touches in seven games. That extra workload against

505
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 1: a team that has allowed the fourth most yards in

506
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 1: the last three weeks, the tenth worst fantasy defense on

507
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: the season, and eleven running back scores in ten games.

508
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 1: A grade for David Montgomery this week. I really like him.

509
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 1: On the other side, I have a C grade on

510
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota. Despite only averaging a hundred seventy four yards

511
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: per game passing, he tax on thirty to sixty rushing

512
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: yards nearly every game, and he needs it. He scored

513
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,880
Speaker 1: in all but two games, as multiple touchdowns in half

514
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: his games. But other mobile quarterbacks against the Bears, like

515
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: Trey Lance, Daniel Jones, even Dak Prescott tagged the tag

516
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: the Bears for forty to fifty yards and a score.

517
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: So he gets a C grade just and it's a

518
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 1: forty nine point over under in Vegas, it's gonna likely

519
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 1: to be a high scoring game. I got Marioder with

520
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,360
Speaker 1: the Sea, Drake London with the CEA as well. It's

521
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 1: been rough lately. Rough. There's been random, yeah, random pop

522
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: offs by Cadero, Hard Hodgen, demere Bird, but London is

523
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,199
Speaker 1: the consistent one, getting about six targets per game. Hasn't

524
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 1: topped forty yards since Week three, that is the worry,

525
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: but seven wide receivers have hit that mark in just

526
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 1: the last three games against the Bear or Bears over

527
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: that span their fourth worst against wide receivers, allowing the

528
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: second most yards. I have a C grade on London.

529
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: I have a C grade on Kyle Pitts. I mean,

530
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: you aren't benching him. It's Kyle Pitts, You're not. He's

531
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: pretty much I will say he's matchup proof. He's matchup proof.

532
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,959
Speaker 1: Though good matchup, bad matchup still get you two catches

533
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: for twenty to thirty yards. Uh. Given four teams on

534
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 1: buy and the injuries to Earth's and Goddard and evert uh,

535
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 1: he's he's startable C grade plus. The only two tight

536
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 1: ends that five targets against the Bears had good games

537
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 1: that Pitts gets over that, and the Bears have allowed

538
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: two touchdowns to tight ends the last three weeks, so

539
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 1: there's some optimism. There were those targets catchable for those

540
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 1: other tight ends, I'm like the targets that Cowpits. You

541
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: couldn't let it go. Kyle Pits does not get any

542
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: catchable targets. But Tyler l Jeer was my running back.

543
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 1: Take a chance on me player. He's the only running

544
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: back I'd start in this one. Not no, not Patterson,

545
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: Not the way he's playing right now now. It's the

546
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: usage is inexplicable. I want to believe Patterson's gonna bounce

547
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 1: back and become more of a workhorse, but we haven't

548
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 1: seen any help. The world would be a better place

549
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: if the Falcons did take Justin Fields and then Kyle

550
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: Pitts got to go somewhere else. Oh no, Tyler L Jr.

551
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: Did not start himself this week. You want to change

552
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: your mind, I'll give you a chance. Send this. You've

553
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: got a whole show to go. Yeah, we'll talk about

554
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: when we come back. New York Jets taking on the Patriots.

Speaker 1: Will find out what you can do with elements of

556
00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 1: the Jets passing game, including Garrett Wilson in this game,

557
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 1: well the Wilson Wilson connection to help your fantasy team

558
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: find out when we come back. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly.

559
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: I am Paul Charching my coast or Scott Fish. You

560
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 1: can follow Scott on Twitter at Scott Fish and you

561
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: can follow Brian Johnson at b t x J and

562
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,479
Speaker 1: I am at Paul Charching. You just gotta figure out

563
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: how to spell it. That's the it's the challenge. It's

564
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: a game within the game of fantasy football. Figure out

565
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: how to spell my name. Back to the matchups. Jets

566
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: taking on the Patriots. Brian Jet side of this game,

567
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: Michael Carter lead back against a pretty good run defense.

568
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: It is a great run defense. And I will mention

569
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 1: and I'll reference this game. These teems just met in

570
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: week eight, so some very recent history up or down

571
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: in that game. I'm pretty sure he was down by then.

572
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: He was. He was because Michael Carter and James Robinson

573
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 1: combined for forty three scoreless rushing yards on twelve carries

574
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: in that first meeting. And the Patriots have surrender just

575
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: two total touchdowns and running backs all season. So I'll

576
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: give Carter a see if you're desperate. I got Robinson

577
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: on the bench. Um, but I would explore other options

578
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: other than Michael Carter. But if you have to start him,

579
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: go ahead. But there are other options out there most likely.

580
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: Uh So, a soft seed for Carter, a CEE for

581
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson. Opposing wide receivers are averaging him easily. Eleven

582
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: catches and a hundred twenty seven yards and less than

583
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,719
Speaker 1: a touchdown per game. Has a hole against the Patriots.

584
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: But Wilson had six catches for a hundred fifty yards

585
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: in the weekend games, so there's some glimmer of hope there.

586
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: So Jald Mills out there, he's awful, that's you know,

587
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: if you can, if you can get that matchup for

588
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson, I like his prospects. Yeah, so he got

589
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 1: the sea Denzel Mims, who has emerged as the wide

590
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: receiver to uh, he's on the and so he did

591
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: have seventy six yards in that first meeting, but just

592
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: saw three targets. I'm not chasing those numbers. So he's

593
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: on the bench, but Tyler Conklin is not. He gets

594
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: a B in the tight end waste land. The Patriots

595
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: have surrendered the most tight end touchdowns this year. Two

596
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: of those went to Conklin and wee Gate when he

597
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: also had six catches for seventy nine yards. So B

598
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 1: for Conklin, but a B in terms of bench for

599
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 1: Zack Wilson. He did have three and fifty five yards

600
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: and two touchdowns in the first meeting, but he also

601
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: threw three picks. And in his ten career road starts

602
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: and this game is on the road for Wilson, he's

603
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: averaging one passing yards and has totaled four passing touchdowns.

604
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: So he's on the bench for me over to the

605
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: Patriots side or Modre Stevenson not on the bench, but

606
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: just to see this week he will split time with

607
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: Damien Harris, who looks close off the injury list altogether.

608
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: And I assumed that Harris didn't playing this Week eight game,

609
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 1: but he did um something like eleven carries, but he played, Um, Harris.

610
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but Stevenson had a strong game regardless of

611
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,719
Speaker 1: Harris playing, finishing with one forty three combo yards uh,

612
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 1: including seven catches in that game against the Jets, the

613
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 1: most combo yards of the Jets have allowed to a

614
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 1: single back all season. But it's a tough matchup on paper.

615
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: New York is allowing just four yards per carry since

616
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 1: Week three and they've surrendered three total touchdowns to oppose

617
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 1: and running backs during that span. So just to see

618
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 1: for Stevenson, I got Harris on the bench, Gotta see

619
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: what he does, what kind of what kind of snap percentage,

620
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: he sees, all that stuff. So he's on the bench

621
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 1: for me this week and a bad matchup. Jacoby Myers.

622
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: I was closely giving a bench grade two, but I

623
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: give him a CE based on expected volume. Saw twelve

624
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: targets in the first meeting in the first meeting and

625
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: turned them into nine catches, sixty yards and a touchdown.

626
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 1: But that touchdown was just one of two wide receiver

627
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: touchdowns the Jets have surrendered over their last six games.

628
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 1: So temporary expectations for Myers, but we'll start him with

629
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: the CE not starting Kendrick Born or Tae Kwon Thornton

630
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 1: there on the bench, Hunter Henry John H. Smith around

631
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: the bench. They combined for four catches thirty two yards

632
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 1: against the Jets in Week A. The Jets have not

633
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 1: allowed a tight end touchdown all year. Easy bench for

634
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 1: them and easy ben for mac Jones. All right, let's

635
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 1: go to the Commander's taking on the Texans and what

636
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: is not a particularly sexy matchup, but does have a

637
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 1: variety of starters in it, including Brian Robinson coming off

638
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,760
Speaker 1: his most impressive game of the year by a fair margin.

639
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 1: I thought he's getting tons of work with twenty or

640
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,800
Speaker 1: more carries in two of the last four games, Houston

641
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 1: has been pummeled on the ground, seeing the most rushing

642
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: attempts while allowing the most rushing yards and rushing touchdowns.

643
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 1: In the last four games alone, the Texans have allowed

644
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: eight rushing scores and three different backs of top two

645
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 1: hundred and forty rushing yards against them. This as good

646
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,879
Speaker 1: as it gets for Brian Robinson. If you don't start

647
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: him here, why is he on your taking? And we'll

648
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 1: bring Antonio Gibson into this conversation. If I didn't mention

649
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: it b great for Brian Robinson, I'm giving a seed

650
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,320
Speaker 1: to Gibson here. You'd probably talked me into a B

651
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: and PPR leagues, same easy match up on the ground

652
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 1: as Robinson. He just gets fewer carries. He does chip

653
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: in with extra receptions though, and JD. McKissick has been

654
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: ruled out, so we will continue to help you that way.

655
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: He's also managed to find the end zone in three

656
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,760
Speaker 1: of the past four games, and I think just absolutely startable,

657
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 1: especially in two weeks here for Antonio Gibson. And then

658
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: a couple of the guys you care about in the

659
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: passing game, probably Terry McLaren first foremost probably red Hot

660
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: thanks Ever since the switch to Taylor Heineke, McLaren has

661
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: seen at least forty of Washington's targeted air yards in

662
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: each game since Heineke took over. That is a huge,

663
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 1: huge number. The Texans have allowed a league high fifteen

664
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: yards per reception to wide receivers this season. They do

665
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: have better improving cornerback play. In the last four games,

666
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: Derek Stingley and Stephen Nelson have combined to allow four

667
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 1: receptions for thirty nine yards per game. And oh, I

668
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: didn't see that that does that is helpful? Then let

669
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 1: me double check that Stingley's out. I'd consider bumping Terry

670
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 1: McLaren out. All right, I'm giving him an A grade.

671
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 1: Taylor Heineke comes in with a C grade here. I

672
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 1: worry about out this run heavy game plan against a

673
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 1: bad run defense, so I don't think there's a lot

674
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 1: of volume to be had for Heineke. And Houston isn't

675
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,800
Speaker 1: going to get like way ahead and forced Heineke to

676
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: throw a bunch, so the game plan just doesn't feel

677
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: like a big game coming here. No quarterbacks top two

678
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: touchdowns in a game and only one is top three

679
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 1: yards since the opener against Houston. All right, let's go

680
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:24,399
Speaker 1: to the Houston side. Given up to me. The whole

681
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 1: rest of this segment and maybe the rest of the

682
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 1: show would just be all about Damian Pierce. Let's do it.

683
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 1: I'm totally game for that. Since Week three, Pierce has

684
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:35,479
Speaker 1: seen at least twenty combined carries and targets every game,

685
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: and he's put up at least one hundred total yards

686
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: in every game but one. Since Week three. Pierce has

687
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,439
Speaker 1: also wrapped up the sixth most red zone carries among

688
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: running backs, while the rest of the team has one

689
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: carry in the red zone to one ratio. I love

690
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: that about Damien Pierce. Washington is, though, got a very

691
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: good run defense. Only Derrick Henry is a clip seventy

692
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,320
Speaker 1: six rushing yards against them, and they give up just

693
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: four point two yards per carry. The Commanders have surrendered

694
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 1: the fourth fewest rushing touchdowns, just four all year. It's

695
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 1: a tough matchup, but Pierce's volume keeps him at a

696
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: B level. And by the way, is God given talent

697
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: the only other startable text and I've got his Nico

698
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 1: Collins um. When Collins and Brandon Cooks have been on

699
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 1: the field together, Collins has tallied more yards in three

700
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: of those four games, and he's emerging as Houston's go

701
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: to wide receiver. He played through his groin injury last week,

702
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 1: but he's still very He's still maybe limited by the

703
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:35,080
Speaker 1: groin injury. Houston, sorry, Washington secondary is much improved, and

704
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 1: aside from Justin Jefferson, they've held mortals in check, including A. J.

705
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 1: Brown's dud game on Monday Night. So I can only

706
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 1: get you to a C grade on Nico Collins, and guys,

707
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 1: what do you think about this? I'm already to just

708
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: drop Brandon Brandon Cooks. Um. You know, he's lost the

709
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt at this point. He scored one

710
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: time all year. He's disgruntled. He barely showed up in

711
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,439
Speaker 1: the box score last week. And I think Nico Collins

712
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: is the go to receiver now and and David support

713
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 1: more of the one receiver. All right, that's exactly. It's

714
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 1: a dropping bread of coats. It depends on how shall

715
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: I agree? But I'm sad about it. Yeah, that's I

716
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: think that's totally fair. He went from underrated every single

717
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: year two possibly properly. Maybe they want to bump his

718
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: trade value up though in the off season, and maybe

719
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 1: THATWN Lions take on the Giants. Scott, you know, I

720
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: know you love I'm on Ross st. Brown, So I'm

721
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: gonna start with I want to start with him right

722
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: off the bat. We're seeing with since T. J. Hawkins,

723
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,840
Speaker 1: and he's we're starting to see what feels like a

724
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: repeat of last November December. You are you reading what

725
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,920
Speaker 1: I have written down here to talk about because I

726
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: literally had a series of reflecting mirrors in the studio

727
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 1: so I could read your notes. I was also wondered

728
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:50,439
Speaker 1: what all those cameras in my houset werefore. So wait

729
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: a second. I'm on Ross st. Brown, the sun God

730
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 1: has thirty targets in the last three games. The volumes

731
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: back to those league winning levels um over the last

732
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,800
Speaker 1: three weeks. The Giants actually, let's start, he have. The

733
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: Giants on the season have been a top ten pasty

734
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: against wide receivers, but over the last three weeks their

735
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 1: third worst. They've allowed six different receivers over fifty yards.

736
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: They're averaging about a hundred and eighties six yards and

737
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,759
Speaker 1: a score to wide receivers per game. And it's not

738
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: even like huge studs. It's the Jags and the Seahawks

739
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,400
Speaker 1: and the Texans are blowing them up, blow at at

740
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 1: the wide receiver position. I have an A grade, Amra.

741
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: I do have Jared Goff on the bench. Thou Giants

742
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: allowing two in thirty yards per game. It's it's it's

743
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,279
Speaker 1: not a lot. Despite what the wide receivers are doing,

744
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,720
Speaker 1: They've given up just ten passing touchdowns in nine games.

745
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: Uh As, as for the tight ends, you're you're not

746
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:44,920
Speaker 1: starting the broc Rights and the world. Yeah, let's go

747
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:46,879
Speaker 1: over to the running backs, where it gets a little

748
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 1: more complicated. I'm gonna start here. Jamal Williams missing practices

749
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: this week with an illness. I think he's likely to

750
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 1: push through and go and he'll be fine. DeAndre Swift

751
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 1: logged his first full week of practice ends coming back

752
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: from injury. He's been limited in previous weeks. Even last week.

753
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 1: Dan Campbell said we're gonna work him in more, and

754
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 1: so he's been splitting snaps with Justin Jackson. This week

755
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 1: is the first week none of those comments are out there.

756
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 1: He had a full week of practice. I'm not saying

757
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 1: Dandre Swift his back. I'm saying you should feel a

758
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,439
Speaker 1: little bit better this week finally, but still not great

759
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: just the way it's locked. Uh So, I have a

760
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:29,240
Speaker 1: B grade on on Jamal Williams a C grade on Swift.

761
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: Williams scoring nine times in nine games, but the Giants

762
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 1: have only given up four rushing scores. Swift. I got

763
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: him starting because of that pass game work and how

764
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: efficient he is with the ball when he gets it,

765
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 1: but the volume is on Williams side, so I have

766
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 1: the B grade on him. By the way, the Giants

767
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 1: allowing five point four yards per carrying eleven point two

768
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: yards per reception to running backs. Those are both bottom

769
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: five in the league. The only thing that keeps the

770
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 1: Giants up high in the rankings is twenty two total

771
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: running back touches against the Giants per game. That's league low.

772
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,400
Speaker 1: It's volume, That's why. That's why their rankings look good.

773
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: It's volume when when they get touches, running backs get touches,

774
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 1: they get massive amounts of yards over on the Giant side.

775
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, would zeer take a chance on me player

776
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: getting it done through the air and ground. I believe

777
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,800
Speaker 1: you said, Darius Slayton, I have a C grade on

778
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 1: Despite only four targets last week, he made the absolute

779
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: most of them. Uh, he's the only guy you can

780
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: really trust with targets of four, six and six in

781
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 1: his last three. The matchup against the Lions was great

782
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,800
Speaker 1: earlier in the year, last three weeks not as great.

783
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: Only Lazard sorry, Lazard top fifty seven yards and it

784
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 1: took ten targets. Slayton plays eighty three percent outside. He

785
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 1: might see some mokuda, but I don't think they're gonna

786
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 1: shadow him. And if anyone's going to score for them

787
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 1: at the wide receiver, tight ends, etcetera. If Daniel Jones

788
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,759
Speaker 1: throws a touchdown, it's probably to Slayton, so we'll give

789
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,880
Speaker 1: him the see uh secon Barkley A grade, Yeah, Lions

790
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 1: allow in five yards per carry, giving up eleven rushing

791
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 1: tons town touchdowns in nine games. A grade. I'm I'm

792
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 1: neven gonna go over now. It's it goes without saying that,

793
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 1: say Kwon Barkley is an elite start um. Talk to

794
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: me about Christian Watson. Guys five touchdowns in two games,

795
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 1: and you know he has added a spark to and

796
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,919
Speaker 1: otherwise struggling passing offense. Although it would help if Aaron

797
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,320
Speaker 1: Rodgers could like throw a pass and he's doing it

798
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: misfiring all over the field. What he has like what

799
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 1: five touchdowns on eleven targets to something like which, So

800
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,879
Speaker 1: that makes me very skeptical. You know when you see

801
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: that kind of you know, that's pretty out of whack

802
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 1: and not sustainable if you're not getting that much that

803
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 1: many targets. He seems legit, though he should have had

804
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 1: a touchdown on like the first play from scrimmage for

805
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: the Packers in Week one dropped a long bomb from

806
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,839
Speaker 1: Rogers and he was dealing with injuries. But when he's

807
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,359
Speaker 1: been healthy, which has just been as late pretty much

808
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 1: the last two weeks, look looks pretty legit for for

809
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 1: a rookie. And you know he he went to the

810
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: small school in the North Dakota state. Right, let me

811
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: ask you this, he's got the pedigree. Give me a

812
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 1: sense of how valuable Christian Watson is from a dynasty

813
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: or Empire league standpoint is you're projecting four how valuable

814
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 1: is Christian Watson? Yeah, that is That's an interesting one.

815
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: He's probably still in the third or fourth range among

816
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:10,960
Speaker 1: the last year's rookie wide receivers just because we don't

817
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:12,879
Speaker 1: know where Aaron Rodgers is going to be next. He's

818
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 1: certainly uh leap frogged the sky Moore's who were getting

819
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 1: drafted before him and rookie drafts, but I don't know,

820
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: I still rank them below Pickens in London, and but

821
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: he's knocking on the door those guys for sure. Is

822
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:30,879
Speaker 1: the explosive play potential is very big for Christian wats

823
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 1: Dobbs has been out to Actually he might have just

824
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:38,839
Speaker 1: been usurped. Well hard to know yet, But when when

825
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 1: Dobbs comes back, then this thing gets really really interesting

826
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 1: because he was very promising. So I don't think, I

827
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: don't think. I don't think this is very clear, and

828
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 1: I don't think. Don't expect these last two games to

829
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: be representative of what Christian Watson is going to do

830
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: the rest of It's a record, by the way, five

831
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 1: touchdowns in five days has to be I don't know that.

832
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 1: It's pretty wide, isn't it. When we can back our

833
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,600

Speaker 1: Guillotine leagues dot com our number two fantasy football weekly.

841
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,959
Speaker 1: Paul Charging with you. My co hosts are Scott Fish

842
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 1: and Brian Johnson. This is a game we call three

843
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,960
Speaker 1: Tough Questions. You can play along try to go three

844
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,440
Speaker 1: and oh against our panel of experts. We begin with

845
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 1: tough question number one. Darius Tony's rest of season? Is

846
00:44:55,320 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: he a wide receiver one, wide receiver two, flex or

847
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: bench player. We begin with Scott Fish. Yeah, I think

848
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 1: Juju is going to be back after this week. I

849
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,640
Speaker 1: can't imagine that concussion keeping him out much more than

850
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 1: this week, So so I went with flex. I could

851
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: see good, you know, all the way to wide receiver two.

852
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 1: We saw every metric about him grow from week one

853
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:21,400
Speaker 1: to week two. Hardman is going to be out for

854
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 1: a while. Um, it's just that the wide receiver two

855
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 1: and wide receiver three in this offense has rarely been

856
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,720
Speaker 1: very productive for fantasy. He may be better than those,

857
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,759
Speaker 1: and they're using finding ways to get him involved on

858
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 1: the sweeps that he took over for Hardman. But and

859
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,759
Speaker 1: Hardman had four straight double digit Fantasy days before going

860
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 1: to I R. But I don't think that's going to

861
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 1: be very consistent. I have it as a flex, but

862
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 1: you're gonna get some wide receiver two games out of it. Brian.

863
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,960
Speaker 1: Darius Tony's rest of season is he a wide receiver one?

864
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 1: A wide receiver to flex or bench. I don't have

865
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:56,359
Speaker 1: munch to add to what Scott said. Definitely not wide

866
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 1: receiver one. With Travis Kelsey on your team, he's wide

867
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:03,279
Speaker 1: receive for one for the Chiefs. Um if Juju remains out,

868
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 1: I would go wide receiver too, but I'm going flex.

869
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,879
Speaker 1: But man, he's borderline wide receiver too. You really don't

870
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,920
Speaker 1: see many guys who are able to like stop on

871
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 1: a dime Likedarius Tony can and change direction and with

872
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 1: the speed like Tyreek. Kill is the only comparable receiver

873
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: I can think of, and he fared pretty well in

874
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,280
Speaker 1: his days in Kansas City. But I'm so you're officially

875
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 1: calling to Tyree. I love he's got that, he's got

876
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: that upside. I must say he's gonna get there this year.

877
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 1: But he looks pretty comparable to me. I love Travis

878
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,000
Speaker 1: Kelsey shaking his has his head. I don't know how

879
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:39,320
Speaker 1: New York building well, you know, And I'm not factoring

880
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 1: that comment because players say that stuff all the time

881
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 1: and it doesn't necessarily mean anything. Do you think, co host,

882
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,319
Speaker 1: it was a coincidence that Kadarius Tony suddenly showed up

883
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:49,840
Speaker 1: in the box score in a game in which Juju

884
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster got knocked out in the first drive and

885
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 1: McCole Hardman did not play even then. Even then his

886
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 1: snap count was just of the of the snaps, so

887
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 1: it wasn't that high. And here's the thing that I

888
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:06,800
Speaker 1: really can't get past. Once everybody's back healthy, which should

889
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 1: be as early as next week, well McCole Hardman not.

890
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:13,560
Speaker 1: But Juju comes back. In the Patrick Mahomes era, he

891
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:17,280
Speaker 1: will put guys on games that make them look amazing

892
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, man, Mikole Hardman, if that guy

893
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 1: is gonna be a game changer for the next five years,

894
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,360
Speaker 1: and you just do anything for the next five games.

895
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 1: So in all probability, what awaits Tony once Juju and

896
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 1: especially hard to come back. It's just a timeshare with

897
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 1: inconsistent results, because that's what this position always does. I

898
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: can distinctly remember like four plays that Tony has made

899
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 1: in his very short career with the Giants and the Chiefs.

900
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: I don't remember anything that Juju Smith Schuster or Michael

901
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 1: Hardman has done. But that's look, I'm taking all the

902
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 1: fun out of Fantasy Phone. I admit it. I am

903
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: the no fun charge. No fun flex is the correct

904
00:47:54,200 --> 00:48:01,400
Speaker 1: answer for Darius you gotta write anyway. With Damien Harris

905
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: returning to full health for the rest of the season,

906
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 1: is Romandre Stevenson a running back one running back to

907
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 1: flex or bench Brian Johnson. Stevenson averaging more than five

908
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 1: yards per touch while Harris has averaged nearly a yard

909
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:20,120
Speaker 1: less per touch. That's pretty significant. Stevenson also the much

910
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:23,359
Speaker 1: better pass catcher, so we should stay more productive moving

911
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,680
Speaker 1: forward even with Harris healthy. That said, Harris, we'll eat

912
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 1: into stevenson snaps, but New England is a top is

913
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,880
Speaker 1: top eight in rushing play percentage, so there's plenty to

914
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 1: go around. I still think Stevenson gets his fifteen carries

915
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 1: with four to five targets catches per game, so I'm

916
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,280
Speaker 1: willing RB two rest of the way even with Harris

917
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 1: back Scott rest of season. With Damien Harris returning, Ramandre

918
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 1: Stevenson is an RB one and RB two who flex

919
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:54,920
Speaker 1: our bench. Yes, so ram Stevenson has outsnapped Harrison every

920
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:58,200
Speaker 1: game since Week one. Obviously, the game's Harris didn't play

921
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 1: the whole game or missed ram head large work hold workloads,

922
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 1: but he did that also in some of the games

923
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 1: that Harris fully played. I actually view the start of

924
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 1: the season to be what we may see the rest

925
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,280
Speaker 1: of the season, where Harris has some games, he's little

926
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 1: used in some games. It's more of a split Romandris

927
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 1: RB twelve right now, even with a pretty decent downgrade,

928
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,279
Speaker 1: I don't know that he gets past RB twenty four

929
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 1: in the volume that New England runs the ball and

930
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 1: the goal line looks New England gives running backs. I

931
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,799
Speaker 1: have him as an RB two. I love Romandri Steve, Yeah,

932
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,240
Speaker 1: I love that guy, and I think he's a special

933
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:36,919
Speaker 1: I was talking to him the other day. It feels

934
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 1: the same way. And he starts himself in his fantasy.

935
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:44,239
Speaker 1: But here comes Damien Harris with fresh legs in a

936
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 1: luxury in mid November, in the opening month of the season,

937
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 1: when Harris was healthy and it was a shared backfield,

938
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,720
Speaker 1: he was Bill Belichick's lead back with more carries, more yards,

939
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: more touchdowns than Stevenson. And we've seen belichick backfields take

940
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 1: on a expected weird turns many many times. Yeah, right,

941
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 1: And I am not ready to count out Harris at all.

942
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,880
Speaker 1: And also this Damien Harris is a really good back. Stevenson,

943
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 1: Damion Harris a good back He's gonna knock Stevenson back

944
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 1: to the same flex play that he was in September

945
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,720
Speaker 1: when this was a shared backfield and they were getting

946
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:23,080
Speaker 1: roughly the same work, but Harris was getting more. And

947
00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:26,360
Speaker 1: even though I'm team Stevenson, I just think the reality

948
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,680
Speaker 1: of it as when I take off my emotional cap

949
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 1: on this and I just look at this shared backfield,

950
00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:35,040
Speaker 1: I think Damon Harris is gonna end up eating into

951
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 1: too much of Stevenson's time for him to be a

952
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 1: sure RB two correct answer flex tough Question number three.

953
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:46,719
Speaker 1: This is the no fun version of why am I?

954
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:48,239
Speaker 1: Why do I have to be the wet blanket? What's

955
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:55,360
Speaker 1: the title of this show? Wet Blankets? Uh? Should we drop?

956
00:50:56,080 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 1: Let's start over? Question number three? Should we op Dallas

957
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 1: Goddard or stick it out with him on our roster? Scott, Yeah,

958
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 1: I'm sticking. I'm sticking this out. Is if he's able

959
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,359
Speaker 1: to heal their tight ends are terrible this year. If

960
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 1: he's able to heal up in a month and be

961
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:15,320
Speaker 1: back for Week fifteen, your week Week fifteen sixteen seventeen

962
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 1: Fantasy playoffs, Uh, He's He's worth it. The two caveats

963
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 1: here are is the injury one that he may take

964
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,279
Speaker 1: time getting back after that or miss more weeks than

965
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:30,239
Speaker 1: the initial four coin flip, coin flip, it's possible. The

966
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:32,560
Speaker 1: other one is a shoulder to catch a pass. Yes

967
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 1: you do, Yes, you do, especially at the high point

968
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,719
Speaker 1: team that he does a lot. Will the Eagles be

969
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 1: locked into a one seed by that point and they'll

970
00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:42,880
Speaker 1: keep him resting four weeks away from the playoffs. I

971
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,960
Speaker 1: don't know that that's quite the case. Maybe maybe later on,

972
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:49,080
Speaker 1: um if it takes him longer. So those are two

973
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 1: things that can do that. But honestly, if you're dropping

974
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:54,920
Speaker 1: him for a guy like trust and Ebner or something, no,

975
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 1: if if you see it Cadarius Tony on the free agency,

976
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: sure do it. But in most cases I say no,

977
00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 1: just told onto Dallas Goddard for this. For the moment,

978
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,160
Speaker 1: your answer is no, Yeah, that was a super long win.

979
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,800
Speaker 1: You're saying, hold Dallas, Hold all right, Brian, we dropped

980
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:14,840
Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard or stick it out Holden. I don't have

981
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:19,879
Speaker 1: much I'll say. I will say, guys come back from

982
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:23,399
Speaker 1: shoulder injuries, running backs, wide receivers, and then they're fine

983
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 1: when when they come back it's the lower leg injuries

984
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,720
Speaker 1: that you're really skeptical about when they come back from injury,

985
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:31,080
Speaker 1: and that's not the case with Goddard. Ozar, if you

986
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: were rostering him, your team is pretty decent and you'll

987
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:35,399
Speaker 1: have a shot in the playoffs. And if he comes

988
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:37,520
Speaker 1: back healthy, you're gonna want to start them to hold them.

989
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 1: You know, we're not doctors here, but just you know,

990
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 1: the reality is people have to make this decision this

991
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 1: week on Dallas Goddard. And you know, as you mentioned,

992
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,279
Speaker 1: the early se can come back is week fifteen. The

993
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:51,319
Speaker 1: eight and one Eagles have Super Bowl aspirations. They care

994
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:53,920
Speaker 1: a lot more about having a healthy Dallas Goddard in

995
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 1: January than they do in December, so there's no need

996
00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:00,120
Speaker 1: to rush him back at less than full health. So

997
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:03,680
Speaker 1: week number one he would be unrealistic. I don't know

998
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:06,279
Speaker 1: who knows. They may even be. They may have. We're

999
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 1: in Minnesota right now. You know they want to I

1000
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 1: don't think the seating makes any difference here. I don't

1001
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 1: think it does. It's all about winning in January is

1002
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:17,440
Speaker 1: all that the Eagles should be caring about right here.

1003
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 1: Tough call, but you know, when healthy Goddard is one

1004
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 1: of three reliable fantasy tight ends. That's so that's so

1005
00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:29,919
Speaker 1: valuable in this league. And yes, he's going to soak

1006
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 1: up a roster spot, and maybe you would turn that

1007
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:36,440
Speaker 1: roster spot into tight end help, but you probably aren't

1008
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: going to because they're probably just isn't that much tight

1009
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 1: end help to be had out there in the waiver wire.

1010
00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:45,319
Speaker 1: So while you might you might be able to drop

1011
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 1: him and find help, I think in most cases, God,

1012
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,479
Speaker 1: it's just way too valuable to drop in the event

1013
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:55,359
Speaker 1: that he does come back for your fantasy playoffs. That said,

1014
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:59,239
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't. I think Week fifteen sounds optimistic.

1015
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 1: So your answer is, do not dropped out? Don't drop

1016
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: down there? And I think, yeah, we all did. M

1017
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:09,840
Speaker 1: on the Saints, Brian, they lose Cooper Cup, but they

1018
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:13,120
Speaker 1: get back Matthew Stafford. Yeah, so that doesn't really matter

1019
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:14,960
Speaker 1: much with the Cooper Cup. So I got Stafford on

1020
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 1: the bench, has returned to full practice, should make his return,

1021
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:21,040
Speaker 1: but without Cooper Cup, I gotta put Stafford on the

1022
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:23,879
Speaker 1: bench because I only have one starting grade on any

1023
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,160
Speaker 1: of his past catchers, and that was Allen Robinson was

1024
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 1: that might take a chance on me. Wide receiver Van Jefferson,

1025
00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:32,720
Speaker 1: Ben Skorennick, Brandon Powell, and s McCutchen. They're on the bench,

1026
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:35,279
Speaker 1: and surprisingly in the tight end wasteland. I do have

1027
00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:39,839
Speaker 1: Tyler Higby on the bench. The Rams offensive line, they

1028
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,560
Speaker 1: just had two more injuries this week. It's on life support.

1029
00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:44,920
Speaker 1: So Higgy's me doing a lot of blocking. Yes, there

1030
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 1: are more targets that are gonna be spread around with

1031
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,799
Speaker 1: Cup sideline, but the Saints have allowed just one tight

1032
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,600
Speaker 1: end touchdown all season, and not one Moon tight end

1033
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,920
Speaker 1: has topped fifty yards against him. So I'm benching Higby

1034
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:57,919
Speaker 1: this week, and I'm also benching all of the Rams

1035
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 1: running backs. Darryl Henderson, Camakers, Williams. I've got some stuff

1036
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 1: to read here, but I'm not going to do it.

1037
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,359
Speaker 1: Just put there on the bench. Remember last year when

1038
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:07,840
Speaker 1: we were throwing down automatic as a bunch of Rams,

1039
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 1: and well, yeah, you Rams Saints used to be a

1040
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 1: sound like the sexiest matchup in the world. When He's

1041
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 1: not not in this game. A few more starting grades

1042
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 1: for the Saints, so go over to them. Not great

1043
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,359
Speaker 1: ones though, Alvin Kamara, just to see the Saints are

1044
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:24,000
Speaker 1: going to be without three stars on their offensive line.

1045
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 1: But the silver lining for camaras of the receiving angle here.

1046
00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:29,520
Speaker 1: Over their last four games, the Rams have allowed seven

1047
00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:33,320
Speaker 1: plus catches and nearly sixty receiving yards per game to

1048
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:35,440
Speaker 1: opposing running back. So you know what, I'll give Camara

1049
00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:39,080
Speaker 1: B and PPR to see and standard for those reasons, Crystal,

1050
00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 1: I'm nervous, he gotta be, but man, he he can

1051
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 1: pop off in any any matchup. Really, um, Crystal Lovey

1052
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:48,560
Speaker 1: gets to see The Rams allowed the lowest A dot

1053
00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 1: average depth of target in the league at five point

1054
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:54,799
Speaker 1: five yards, which is not bode well for a Lovey's game.

1055
00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:57,760
Speaker 1: Who should also see plenty of coverage from Jalen Ramsey,

1056
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:00,439
Speaker 1: who has not allowed a touchdown in his bridge since

1057
00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:03,239
Speaker 1: Week two, but over his last few games, Ramsey has

1058
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,960
Speaker 1: surrendered ninety two and seventy one yards in his coverage,

1059
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 1: so a lot of they startable with the Sea Jarvis

1060
00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:12,600
Speaker 1: Landry not though he is on the bench. He actually

1061
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,359
Speaker 1: led the Saints wide receivers and targets last week with six,

1062
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,920
Speaker 1: which is encouraging moving forward, but not this week. The

1063
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:21,520
Speaker 1: Rams have allowed the second fewest fantasy points to slot

1064
00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 1: wide receivers this year, over to the tight ends Taysom

1065
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 1: Hill and Juwan Johnson got them both on the bench.

1066
00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 1: They're just gonna be doing a ton of blocking with

1067
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 1: that banged up offensive line, and the Rams have allowed

1068
00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: the second fewest fantasy points to tight ends of this season,

1069
00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: saying that watch Taysom Hill rush for four touchdowns in

1070
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:39,760
Speaker 1: this game. But if you want to chase crazy upside

1071
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:41,640
Speaker 1: play Taston mill have fund and then Andy Alton. He's

1072
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:43,719
Speaker 1: on the bench. I think one game inside the top

1073
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 1: eighteen quarterbacks this year. I want Jameis Winston back, even

1074
00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,600
Speaker 1: though it doesn't bode well for Kamara. I'm tired of

1075
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: I think Camara is a bench. This is an offensive

1076
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:56,680
Speaker 1: line missing three starters this week. Um, I am very

1077
00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:59,560
Speaker 1: nervous that he's gonna catch ten pass. He's gonna catch

1078
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,440
Speaker 1: ten pa I don't know you're I think you're a

1079
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,800
Speaker 1: lot more optimistic on camera than I am. We'll revisit

1080
00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 1: this next week. Feel free. Uh, let's take a break.

1081
00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 1: When we come back, let's jump into Cowboys taking on

1082
00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:16,640
Speaker 1: the Vikings. Cowboys Vikings plenty of fantasy implications all over

1083
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,360
Speaker 1: the board here, but some key injuries that could play

1084
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 1: into the outcome here. You know what to do about

1085
00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson. What about some of the more fringe e

1086
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 1: players in this game. So Dallas Goddard managers want to

1087
00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 1: root for the Vikings because the Eagles want the number

1088
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:35,680
Speaker 1: one seed regardless of you guys. I'm sure they take it,

1089
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,120
Speaker 1: but I don't think they're gonna put their prize tight

1090
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,280
Speaker 1: end at risk to get there. We'll find out, we'll

1091
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:43,400
Speaker 1: learn more about Cowboys Vikings, and we come back to

1092
00:57:43,480 --> 00:58:10,560
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Charchi

1093
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:13,120
Speaker 1: and Scott Fish, Brian Johnson with you. We've got a

1094
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 1: big block o matchums coming at you right now, beginning

1095
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,560
Speaker 1: with the Cowboys taking on the Vikings. I want to

1096
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:23,080
Speaker 1: start with Dak Prescott because this is a fantastic opportunity

1097
00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 1: for him. Vikings have surrendered three hundred or more passing

1098
00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:31,240
Speaker 1: yards and or multiple passing touchdowns in four straight games,

1099
00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 1: and the Vikings suddenly very thin at cornerback. Cameron Danceler

1100
00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 1: placed in I r his backup with Caleb Evans has

1101
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:40,440
Speaker 1: been ruled out of this game. This is a this

1102
00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 1: is a great opportunity and a game plan that should

1103
00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 1: lean strongly to the past. Dak Prescott is a very

1104
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,400
Speaker 1: safe start and an A grade for him. My top

1105
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:53,760
Speaker 1: ranked wide receiver of this week is c. D. Lamb.

1106
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:57,040
Speaker 1: Now I can give him the fantasy Armpark. Who is

1107
00:58:57,120 --> 00:59:00,320
Speaker 1: Ard Park? I can give Ardarks? No, everybody can use

1108
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:07,480
Speaker 1: Art Art Vark is universal this week. Over the past

1109
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:11,720
Speaker 1: five weeks, the Vikings have allowed the most receptions, the

1110
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:16,400
Speaker 1: most yards to opposing receivers along with five total touchdowns.

1111
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:21,440
Speaker 1: Minnesota has one good cornerback, Patrick Peterson. Ceedee Lamb only

1112
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:25,439
Speaker 1: runs eighteen percent of his routes on Patrick peterson side

1113
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,480
Speaker 1: of the field. The other two percent or against a

1114
00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 1: struggling slot corner or a third what really, fourth string

1115
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 1: cornerback Ceedee Lamb is phenomenally suited for a big game here.

1116
00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:43,800
Speaker 1: Also really like Dalton Schultz since Dak Prescott has been

1117
00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 1: back and Schultz now finally healthy and they came back

1118
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:49,280
Speaker 1: at about basically the same time at least five receptions

1119
00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:52,600
Speaker 1: and fifty receiving yards in every game, plus finally got

1120
00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 1: on the scoreboard last week with his first touchdown of

1121
00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:57,320
Speaker 1: the year. Vikings are middle of the pack and most

1122
00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,680
Speaker 1: tight end metrics on the season, but lately they've given

1123
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:04,760
Speaker 1: up some big games to tight ends, Dawson Knox, zach Ertz,

1124
01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:09,120
Speaker 1: Mike Kasecki all good games, Dalton Schultz B grade. Michael

1125
01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:12,440
Speaker 1: Gallup startable here as well. He runs from the outside

1126
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,600
Speaker 1: where sometimes he will get that Patrick Peterson matchup which

1127
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:16,840
Speaker 1: I meant to, which is bad. But then when he

1128
01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:20,880
Speaker 1: goes the other side, he'll get either journeyman Duke Shelley

1129
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:25,200
Speaker 1: I mentioned before, fifth stringer rookie Andrew Booth arguably also

1130
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,920
Speaker 1: a fifth stringer making a second ever start. Those are

1131
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: good matchups from Michael Gallups startable here for sure, and

1132
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,840
Speaker 1: uh Noel Brown's the only receiver I'm not gonna put

1133
01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 1: a letter grade on, although I wouldn't be surprised he

1134
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:37,520
Speaker 1: did okay, but he just hasn't gotten enough look since

1135
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:41,200
Speaker 1: Gallops returned. Let's talk about Tony Pollard and Ezekiel Elli.

1136
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,160
Speaker 1: Elliott expected to come back in this one, but it

1137
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 1: waters down the prospects for both guys a lot, and

1138
01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 1: it's a very tough matchup for either one. Um Week

1139
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 1: four was the last time a running back hit fifty

1140
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 1: yards on the ground against the Vikings, and in those

1141
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:59,320
Speaker 1: five weeks, running backs are averaging less than three yards

1142
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:02,880
Speaker 1: per carry. Vikings are Pro Football focuses number two ranked

1143
01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:05,720
Speaker 1: run defense. Polo has been way more effective than Zeke,

1144
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 1: and he's healthier than Zeke, and he's my preferred starter here.

1145
01:01:08,520 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 1: But the reason I'm going to give a C grade

1146
01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:12,640
Speaker 1: to Pollard and the C grade to Zeke is that

1147
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:14,720
Speaker 1: Zeke gets most of the goal line work and you

1148
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:16,680
Speaker 1: can hope for a touchdown here. So I'm gonna give

1149
01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:18,480
Speaker 1: Zeke a C grade in a bye week in which

1150
01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:21,120
Speaker 1: I might otherwise give him a bench grade. Let's go

1151
01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:23,919
Speaker 1: to the Viking side, justin Jefferson's and obvious A grade.

1152
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:25,840
Speaker 1: The toe injury appears to be okay and he's removed

1153
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:27,680
Speaker 1: from the injury list on Friday, so he should be

1154
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:31,520
Speaker 1: good to go. Let's talk about Kirk Cousins. Dallas has

1155
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 1: got a very talented secondary, but they are risk takers

1156
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 1: and that's led to them allowing multiple touchdown passes and

1157
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 1: three the last four games. The main area of concern

1158
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,840
Speaker 1: for Cousins is the pressure he's gonna take in the pocket.

1159
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:45,080
Speaker 1: They do expect left tackle Christian Derrisaw to return for

1160
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:48,400
Speaker 1: this game, and that's huge off the injury party, and

1161
01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:51,600
Speaker 1: that's that's without it might have been very worried about Cousins,

1162
01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 1: but as a result, I think we're okay here Cowboys.

1163
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:59,000
Speaker 1: Cowboys defense has average a sack every nine pass attempts,

1164
01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:04,040
Speaker 1: which is in saying, that's unbelievably good. They have registered

1165
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:06,120
Speaker 1: the most sacks among all teams. As you would have guessed,

1166
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:07,920
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, I've got a B grade on here. He

1167
01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:12,400
Speaker 1: takes a thirty nine game streak of games with a

1168
01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:18,080
Speaker 1: touchdown pass into this matchup straight with which is the

1169
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:21,880
Speaker 1: fifth longest streak in NFL. His Wow, Alright, Kirk is

1170
01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:24,800
Speaker 1: single handedly powered half of those games. Uh t. J

1171
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:28,160
Speaker 1: Hockenson's gotta be grade in this one. Since Hockinson's trade

1172
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:31,320
Speaker 1: to the Vikings, He's been the second most targeted tight

1173
01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:34,440
Speaker 1: end in the league, behind only Travis Kelsey. Pretty impressive.

1174
01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: He also leads all tight ends in red zone targets

1175
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 1: since the trade. Unfortunately, those is a tough matchup against

1176
01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 1: a good Cowboys defense that has allowed the third fewest

1177
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 1: Fantasy points and just one touchdown to tight ends, and

1178
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:50,720
Speaker 1: that turns Tockinson from what would have been an A

1179
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 1: grade into a B grade this week. Adam Theland also

1180
01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:58,560
Speaker 1: startable here. Vikings announcer Paul Allen told me today that

1181
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 1: he expects Theland to have a very sizeable role world

1182
01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:08,200
Speaker 1: Internet Internet Ron James Alan, I've been bragging that I

1183
01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 1: have his phone number. I won't give it out, though

1184
01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 1: I think you should be for the right price. He

1185
01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:14,880
Speaker 1: runs from all over the all over the field Ceeland,

1186
01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 1: not Paul Allen runs from Lebron James probably could, but

1187
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:22,040
Speaker 1: most often on the side of the field man by

1188
01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:25,720
Speaker 1: cornerback Anthony Brown, assuming he gets through his concussion protocol.

1189
01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 1: Brown's bad just like last Year's allowed the ninth most

1190
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,400
Speaker 1: receiving yards and the ninth most and he's a lot

1191
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:35,280
Speaker 1: of touchdowns in back to back games. Ceiling logs in

1192
01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 1: with a C here and unless you think Paul Allen

1193
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 1: has got particularly keen insight, then you could give him

1194
01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:44,240
Speaker 1: a B grade. Uh. Dalvin Cook is the only Viking

1195
01:03:44,280 --> 01:03:46,920
Speaker 1: we haven't mentioned yet, a grade. He has scored in

1196
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 1: five straight games powered by big plays, more consistent chain

1197
01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:54,560
Speaker 1: moving plays than necessarily I'd like to get him more

1198
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,080
Speaker 1: consistent chain moving plays. It's really the big plays that

1199
01:03:57,120 --> 01:03:59,560
Speaker 1: he's that he's been helped with. Dallas has given up

1200
01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:02,000
Speaker 1: at least one hundred rushing yards and a score to

1201
01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:05,520
Speaker 1: running backs in three of four games, including getting pummeled

1202
01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:07,720
Speaker 1: for a hundred fifty rushing yards in each of the

1203
01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:10,600
Speaker 1: last two games. This is gonna be a very Dalvin

1204
01:04:10,680 --> 01:04:13,520
Speaker 1: Cook heavy game plan, right, So you've got Dallas is

1205
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,360
Speaker 1: great at rushing the quarterback. The things can go haywire

1206
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:18,160
Speaker 1: a lot of ways again when you throw the ball.

1207
01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:21,680
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook's sitting on a lot of volume in this game,

1208
01:04:21,960 --> 01:04:25,600
Speaker 1: and I like him with an A grade. Let's go

1209
01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:28,240
Speaker 1: to the Raiders taking on the Broncos, Scott. This is

1210
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:31,440
Speaker 1: a Raider's offense. It's been highly dysfunctional, but a Broncos

1211
01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 1: defense that's mostly been very good. Yeah. Mostly. They're the

1212
01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 1: number one past defense against the past, allowing the fewest

1213
01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:41,640
Speaker 1: passing yards and fewest passing touchdowns just six passing touchdowns

1214
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:46,360
Speaker 1: on the season. Close to that. That's insane. That's absolutely insane.

1215
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:48,400
Speaker 1: Uh So I have car on the bench. He's been

1216
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:50,640
Speaker 1: a fine two and forty yard wanted to score guy,

1217
01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:52,640
Speaker 1: but this is a bad spot for him. I do have.

1218
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 1: I do still have Davontae Adams with an A grade

1219
01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:59,480
Speaker 1: because he's had a level game in all but one game,

1220
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:01,520
Speaker 1: and that was the game. He was sick all week

1221
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:04,440
Speaker 1: leading up to He does have a slight abdomen injury

1222
01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 1: this week, but I'm not too worried about it from

1223
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:09,320
Speaker 1: all reports, so I still have an a grade on him.

1224
01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 1: Mac Hollins is back to the bench. He went to

1225
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:16,000
Speaker 1: for eighteen last week with Waller and renfrewout. Ren fro

1226
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:19,440
Speaker 1: out that he had that one huge hundred fifty plus day,

1227
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,640
Speaker 1: but all the other days, even with players out, he's

1228
01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 1: done virtually nothing. I will say this is the number

1229
01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:29,280
Speaker 1: one past d against both outside receivers and slot receivers,

1230
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:35,200
Speaker 1: so I basically everyone else besides Adam on the bench. Fostermorrow, Um,

1231
01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:37,680
Speaker 1: I have a bench grade on him, but it wouldn't

1232
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 1: surprise me. He's been a three for forty type guy

1233
01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:43,000
Speaker 1: with Waller out. Um. This is a Broncos team that

1234
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:46,000
Speaker 1: just allowed sixty two yards in a score to Titans

1235
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:49,400
Speaker 1: last week eighty two yards the week before. UM. Interesting

1236
01:05:49,480 --> 01:05:51,160
Speaker 1: pick up there. He's got a match up with the

1237
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:54,919
Speaker 1: Seahawks next week. That's that's planning ahead a little bit. Yeah,

1238
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:56,720
Speaker 1: so that might be a pre spect. I'm gonna change

1239
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:59,040
Speaker 1: my prespect, but now I'm not going to go get

1240
01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:02,880
Speaker 1: tomorrow for the next for next week's matchup. Josh Jacobs

1241
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,520
Speaker 1: a B grade here. He took thirty three touches for

1242
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:07,840
Speaker 1: a hundred and seventy five yards against the same team

1243
01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:10,880
Speaker 1: in week four. It's not hard to envision another day

1244
01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:13,480
Speaker 1: in the high twenties against them. I will say, though,

1245
01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 1: this Broncos rund you. They held Derrick Henry down, Breece

1246
01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:23,200
Speaker 1: Hall somehow, Damian Pierce, Austin Ekelah, all those guys under

1247
01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 1: eight yards. But Josh Jacobs took him to the house.

1248
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:28,720
Speaker 1: Um the pure volume in the fact that he already

1249
01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:31,600
Speaker 1: did it. I'm giving a B grade to Josh Jacobs. Um,

1250
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 1: even even in this tough matchup, he already did it once.

1251
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:38,440
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson on the other side, I hate to do it,

1252
01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:40,320
Speaker 1: but I gotta give a C grade. It's too good

1253
01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:44,480
Speaker 1: of a match. It's a good matchup that got hit

1254
01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:49,439
Speaker 1: nineteen times last week. I didn't see that hits. Also,

1255
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:51,800
Speaker 1: did you see this. There's a report from one of

1256
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:56,120
Speaker 1: the Denver Talk sports talk radio hosts saying that he's

1257
01:06:56,160 --> 01:07:00,600
Speaker 1: heard that Russell Wilson is calling out audibles from the

1258
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:07,440
Speaker 1: Seahawks playbook. Oh you know, imagine you're Tyler locket and

1259
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:12,360
Speaker 1: he calls an audible for a Playboo, what do I do?

1260
01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 1: Or Courtland Sutton? Yeah, that's uh, that would be crazy. Yeah, yes,

1261
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:28,760
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson sideline. I just did exactly what Russell Wilson.

1262
01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:31,320
Speaker 1: I have a theory that Drew lock was included in

1263
01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:33,160
Speaker 1: that trade for Russell Wilson, so there wouldn't be a

1264
01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:38,280
Speaker 1: quarterback controversy. The Raiders are the fifth best matchup for

1265
01:07:38,320 --> 01:07:42,240
Speaker 1: fantasy quarterbacks, having allowed multiple scores in all but one game.

1266
01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:45,200
Speaker 1: They also allowed two hundred and sixty yards per game,

1267
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:48,520
Speaker 1: and they've even allowed four rushing touchdowns per game. Russell

1268
01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:50,440
Speaker 1: Wilson got one of those in the previous game that

1269
01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:53,600
Speaker 1: they played. Fifth most passing touchdowns allowed. I mean, this

1270
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:57,880
Speaker 1: is a great spot for Wilson, but all those averages

1271
01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:01,400
Speaker 1: are light years above Russell Wilson's average of two seven

1272
01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:05,479
Speaker 1: yards and zero point eight eight touchdowns. So I'm only

1273
01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:07,640
Speaker 1: giving him a C grade. I could see him squeak

1274
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:10,320
Speaker 1: out better, but he's just been so bad this year

1275
01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:12,160
Speaker 1: it's really tough to give him much higher than that.

1276
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:16,120
Speaker 1: No more Russell talk. Let's go, Yes, Jerry Judy, it

1277
01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:19,840
Speaker 1: was two minutes. It really was it really was. Jerry

1278
01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:22,240
Speaker 1: Judy has been ruled out. kJ Hamler is going to

1279
01:08:22,320 --> 01:08:28,639
Speaker 1: be out a little while longer. Uh. Hinton Man, Tristan Hinton, Hilton,

1280
01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:33,160
Speaker 1: what's his name again? Kendall Kendall Kendall Hinton Hint Kendall Hinton.

1281
01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:36,000
Speaker 1: Uh is dealing with his shoulder injury after getting a

1282
01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:38,640
Speaker 1: decent amount of work last week. I have them on

1283
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:41,840
Speaker 1: the bench. I I only have Sutton with a B grade,

1284
01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:46,120
Speaker 1: and mostly because Judy and Hammler are out and someone's

1285
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:48,719
Speaker 1: got to catch balls out there. It's a byproduct the injuries.

1286
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:51,599
Speaker 1: He had six for sixty six and to score last week.

1287
01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:54,479
Speaker 1: Talk to me about Dulphitch though, that's where this gets interested. Yes,

1288
01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:57,880
Speaker 1: let's let's go here. Uh. He disappeared last week, but

1289
01:08:57,960 --> 01:09:00,799
Speaker 1: he's at double digit Fantasy days in three straight. Prior

1290
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:03,840
Speaker 1: to that. I mentioned the injuries that are already there. Um,

1291
01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:06,800
Speaker 1: he was averaging four catches for sixty yards on six

1292
01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:09,479
Speaker 1: targets in those It's a better matchup Shore. We keep

1293
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 1: talking about the Broncos allowed four touchdowns to Kelsey. You

1294
01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:15,400
Speaker 1: gotta throw that out, but five other tight ends have

1295
01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:18,080
Speaker 1: had fifty plus and or a score and even Kyle

1296
01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:21,040
Speaker 1: Granson had a great week last week against them. I

1297
01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:23,200
Speaker 1: got a C grade on Dulstitch. But you can talk

1298
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:25,760
Speaker 1: to you can talk me. You know I'm a Dulstitch fan.

1299
01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:27,519
Speaker 1: He was my one number one tight end coming out

1300
01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:29,479
Speaker 1: of the draft. You could talk me into a B.

1301
01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:32,880
Speaker 1: But I don't love Russell Wilson running this offense. No,

1302
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:34,920
Speaker 1: I don't think I do either. I have C grades

1303
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 1: on both the backs here, four straight leadbacks of top

1304
01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:40,880
Speaker 1: two hundred fifteen yards on the Raiders. The Broncos don't

1305
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:42,840
Speaker 1: really have a lead back. It's kind of fifty fifty.

1306
01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:46,680
Speaker 1: But Murray gets the goal line stuff. Gordon gets the receptions.

1307
01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:49,519
Speaker 1: This is a team that's allowing twenty nine touches per game,

1308
01:09:49,520 --> 01:09:51,919
Speaker 1: a hundred fifty combo yards per game, and a touchdown

1309
01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,080
Speaker 1: per game. You can split that up and get two

1310
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:57,040
Speaker 1: C grades out of these two. Paying me to have

1311
01:09:57,120 --> 01:09:59,680
Speaker 1: to start any brodect it really would. I would not

1312
01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:01,760
Speaker 1: blame me from benching. If I had to start one,

1313
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:03,560
Speaker 1: it's probably Gordon because I don't want to rely on

1314
01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:05,960
Speaker 1: the touchdown. I want to rely on the receptions when

1315
01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:09,479
Speaker 1: we come back. Premature speculation, find out the players you

1316
01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:12,400
Speaker 1: want to pick up this week that everybody else been

1317
01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:16,000
Speaker 1: trying to pick up next week, but you got him first.

1327
01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:04,120
Speaker 1: is a segment we like to lead with premature speculation

1328
01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:07,720
Speaker 1: players you can pick up now battle the people will

1329
01:11:07,720 --> 01:11:09,960
Speaker 1: be trying to pick up next week. Scott. We begin

1330
01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:13,840
Speaker 1: with you, let's try putting in the mic Gun. Let's

1331
01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:15,800
Speaker 1: go with Foster. Oh, I'm just kidding. I just kind

1332
01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:17,439
Speaker 1: of didn't mention that the last segment. Let's go with

1333
01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:20,640
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Jr. He's only thirty percent rostered and he

1334
01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:23,680
Speaker 1: has narrowed his candidate. He's cleared, he's healthy, and he's

1335
01:11:23,680 --> 01:11:25,720
Speaker 1: been cleared by doctors now, so he's just got to

1336
01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:28,639
Speaker 1: pick a team physical and the ones that he has

1337
01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:34,120
Speaker 1: pegged out, the Chiefs, the Cowboys, the Bills, like the Giants.

1338
01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:36,360
Speaker 1: He could either even with the Giants, you could come

1339
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:38,240
Speaker 1: in as the number one reight receiver or number two

1340
01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:42,640
Speaker 1: on several of those teams. Ever be back, um, but

1341
01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:46,040
Speaker 1: some decent offenses that he could jump into and actually

1342
01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:48,560
Speaker 1: have a decent fantasy role. See, I'm very skeptical but

1343
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:50,799
Speaker 1: of what he's gonna do. But I like the pis

1344
01:11:51,560 --> 01:11:54,000
Speaker 1: using him then using him as a as a bargaining chip. Sure,

1345
01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 1: because a lot of people name recognition alone, you can

1346
01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 1: get a lot for Oh b J once he gets signed. Brian,

1347
01:11:59,320 --> 01:12:02,479
Speaker 1: who's your premia chure speculation player, I got a Raiders

1348
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:05,160
Speaker 1: running back, samere white. Now. In the summer, we were

1349
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:08,200
Speaker 1: saying it's very possible the Raiders run Josh Jacobs into

1350
01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:11,880
Speaker 1: the ground in this contract year has worked out that way.

1351
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:14,920
Speaker 1: But the Raiders season is pretty much coming to an end,

1352
01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:18,280
Speaker 1: and I'm hoping they have the decency to not run

1353
01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:20,760
Speaker 1: Jacobs into the ground for no reason. Oh yeah, if

1354
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:26,320
Speaker 1: there's any organization that's going they we saw some flashes

1355
01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:28,680
Speaker 1: from some mere White in the preseason. They're gonna want

1356
01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:30,800
Speaker 1: to see what they have in him with they want

1357
01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:32,840
Speaker 1: to give him an extended look. I'm assuming they're going

1358
01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:34,880
Speaker 1: to want to do that later in the season, so

1359
01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:37,680
Speaker 1: we could see some mere white starting running back in

1360
01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:40,519
Speaker 1: you know, weeks fourteen fifteen sixteen. So if you got

1361
01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,800
Speaker 1: a bench spot open, go grabs him. You're white. I

1362
01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:46,439
Speaker 1: have reason to believe that the tight end waste land

1363
01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:48,960
Speaker 1: is here. So here's an angle for you for those

1364
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,639
Speaker 1: that are looking deep. You may remember from back from

1365
01:12:51,680 --> 01:12:54,479
Speaker 1: April Arizona Draft at the first tight knight off the board,

1366
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:57,400
Speaker 1: Trey McBride, and you know, at the time, we're like, well,

1367
01:12:57,479 --> 01:12:59,760
Speaker 1: you know, we'll see you Trey McBride, like three years

1368
01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:02,760
Speaker 1: when zach Ertz retires. Well, that whole time table got

1369
01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:05,439
Speaker 1: moved up a lot last week after Art's got knocked

1370
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:07,360
Speaker 1: out early in the game, McBride got all of the

1371
01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:11,280
Speaker 1: tight end work of the game snaps and how many

1372
01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:14,920
Speaker 1: routes did he run? Yeah, I mean, you know, so

1373
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:16,640
Speaker 1: they put him into coverage a ton or you know,

1374
01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:20,320
Speaker 1: I like the opportunity for Tray McBride. Nobody's talking about

1375
01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 1: this opportunity, But if you're in a spot at tight end,

1376
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:25,280
Speaker 1: this thing has some weeks to develop because Earth's is

1377
01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:27,760
Speaker 1: not likely to play again this year. That's uh, that's

1378
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,880
Speaker 1: an opportunity for you now is done at least that

1379
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:34,519
Speaker 1: season ending. Yeah, okay, it's officially well it's still not

1380
01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:36,559
Speaker 1: expected to play this year. Yes, I don't think I down.

1381
01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:39,879
Speaker 1: You can't argue that all. Let's go to the Bengals

1382
01:13:39,920 --> 01:13:43,200
Speaker 1: taking on the Steelers. Last time we saw the Bengals,

1383
01:13:43,280 --> 01:13:46,000
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon was scoring five touchdowns. Yeah. I don't know

1384
01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:47,760
Speaker 1: if we get five touchdowns in this one, but he

1385
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,200
Speaker 1: did have a good game when these teams met in

1386
01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:53,280
Speaker 1: Week one. Uh, he had hundred forty five combo yards,

1387
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:55,439
Speaker 1: so he gets an a here. Before their bye week

1388
01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:58,080
Speaker 1: last week, the Steelers had surrendered a running back touchdown

1389
01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:01,639
Speaker 1: in seven consecutive games Himes, so in a for Mixing

1390
01:14:01,720 --> 01:14:03,560
Speaker 1: and a for t Higgins. He got hurt in that

1391
01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:07,559
Speaker 1: week one game left early. Jamaar Chase Tyler Boyd both

1392
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,640
Speaker 1: scored in that one. We know chases out for this one,

1393
01:14:11,120 --> 01:14:12,760
Speaker 1: so we should see a lot of te Higgins in

1394
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:16,280
Speaker 1: a plus matchup. Pittsburgh is allowing nearly two hundred yards

1395
01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:19,160
Speaker 1: and one and a half touchdowns per game to opposing

1396
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:22,160
Speaker 1: wide receivers and do get Minka. I f it's Fitzpatrick back,

1397
01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:25,320
Speaker 1: which factors, but with Chase out, I like Higgins a

1398
01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:27,000
Speaker 1: lot here should see a lot of volume. He gets

1399
01:14:27,080 --> 01:14:29,840
Speaker 1: the A B for Tyler Boyd, as I mentioned, he

1400
01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:32,880
Speaker 1: scored in the first meeting and now has two touchdowns

1401
01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:36,280
Speaker 1: and two of his last three games against the Steelers,

1402
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:38,799
Speaker 1: who I also just mentioned is a pretty good matchup

1403
01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:41,200
Speaker 1: for wide receivers. So that's why Boyd gets the B.

1404
01:14:41,360 --> 01:14:44,280
Speaker 1: And so does Hayden Hurst, who has scored at least

1405
01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:47,280
Speaker 1: eight PPR points in five of his last six games.

1406
01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 1: That's like he leaves just forty yards pretty much every week. Uh,

1407
01:14:52,479 --> 01:14:55,120
Speaker 1: He's has some touchdown upside. He had a season high

1408
01:14:55,160 --> 01:14:57,800
Speaker 1: eight targets against the Steelers back in Week one. Over

1409
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:00,400
Speaker 1: their last two games, the Steelers have allowed more than

1410
01:15:00,439 --> 01:15:03,400
Speaker 1: sixty yards per game to the position, including a touchdown

1411
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:07,200
Speaker 1: catch to Juwan john excuse me Jawan Johnson last week.

1412
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:09,600
Speaker 1: So would be for hearst At an easy A for

1413
01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:11,400
Speaker 1: Burrow and I can get into that with all those

1414
01:15:11,479 --> 01:15:14,800
Speaker 1: starting grades for his pass catchers. Over to the Pittsburgh side,

1415
01:15:15,160 --> 01:15:17,639
Speaker 1: Najie Harris just a see for him. His snap share

1416
01:15:18,040 --> 01:15:21,000
Speaker 1: has continued to drop as the season progresses, and he

1417
01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:23,960
Speaker 1: has been nearly as effective as Jalen Warren has with

1418
01:15:24,120 --> 01:15:27,080
Speaker 1: his touches, but the Bengals have softened against the run

1419
01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:30,559
Speaker 1: since Week five, allowing the sixth most rushing yards per

1420
01:15:30,680 --> 01:15:33,920
Speaker 1: game and the second highest explosive run rates. So I

1421
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,400
Speaker 1: will start Harris with the Sea, but I like my

1422
01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:38,120
Speaker 1: take a chance of me running back a little more,

1423
01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:41,400
Speaker 1: and that's Jalen Warren, So he liked him if it

1424
01:15:41,479 --> 01:15:43,000
Speaker 1: came down to one of the other. Because a lot

1425
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:46,160
Speaker 1: of people are rostering Didge Harris and Jalen Warren. I

1426
01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:48,040
Speaker 1: think the Bengals put a lot of points. I think

1427
01:15:48,080 --> 01:15:49,840
Speaker 1: the stealer is gonna put up points, and I think

1428
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,120
Speaker 1: Warren he does more with his touches, and he's the

1429
01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:54,200
Speaker 1: better pass catcher, and I think they're playing catch up.

1430
01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:55,479
Speaker 1: So yeah, if I had to pick one, I would

1431
01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 1: pick Warren and Uh. Deonte Johnson charge he was gonna

1432
01:15:58,160 --> 01:16:00,280
Speaker 1: take a chance on me wide receiver, and I think

1433
01:16:00,280 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 1: you could also take a chance on George Pickens. Will

1434
01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:04,280
Speaker 1: give him a see. He lines up on the right

1435
01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:07,320
Speaker 1: side most often, will face Eli Apple uh in the

1436
01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:09,559
Speaker 1: Apple's last three games. He's a loud at least fifty

1437
01:16:09,640 --> 01:16:12,599
Speaker 1: yards end or a touchdown. Uh and with quarterback chie

1438
01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:16,240
Speaker 1: Dobezier out, it's open season on the left side against

1439
01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:18,800
Speaker 1: rookie cam Taylor Brett. We've mentioned him a couple of times,

1440
01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:22,760
Speaker 1: who's yielded a perfect eight point three passer rating in

1441
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:25,280
Speaker 1: three games since taking over as a starter, so see

1442
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:28,760
Speaker 1: for Pickens. Also a cee for Pat Friar Muth and

1443
01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:32,240
Speaker 1: its three career games against Cincinnati, including that Week one matchup.

1444
01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:35,200
Speaker 1: Muth has finished with a touchdown or at least seventy

1445
01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:38,679
Speaker 1: five yards in every game. He's also averaging seven point

1446
01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:41,720
Speaker 1: six targets with Kenny Pickett as the starter. It's not

1447
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:44,479
Speaker 1: the best matchup on paper. The Bengals are allowing less

1448
01:16:44,479 --> 01:16:46,599
Speaker 1: than five catches and fifty yards pre game to tight ends,

1449
01:16:46,840 --> 01:16:49,640
Speaker 1: but they did surrender a tight end to um excuse me,

1450
01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:52,720
Speaker 1: surrender a touchdown to tight end Tommy Tremble their last

1451
01:16:52,760 --> 01:16:54,720
Speaker 1: time out, so Friar Muth could do the same. He

1452
01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:56,479
Speaker 1: gets to the Sea and Kenny Pickett was gonna take

1453
01:16:56,479 --> 01:16:59,880
Speaker 1: a chance, and the quarterback Chief's take on the Chargers

1454
01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:03,680
Speaker 1: on Saturday and excuse me, Sunday night, and there's a

1455
01:17:03,720 --> 01:17:05,760
Speaker 1: lot of moving parts on this thing on the Chargers side,

1456
01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:08,599
Speaker 1: but the Chiefs side is a lot more straightforward, where

1457
01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:12,759
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey are a's like usual, Mahomes

1458
01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:15,240
Speaker 1: will be without Juju Smith, Schuster and Nicole Hardman, which

1459
01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:18,799
Speaker 1: is not trivial, but you know still it's Patrick Mahomes

1460
01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:21,840
Speaker 1: and you've probably fine here. Kadarius Tony coming off a

1461
01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:23,920
Speaker 1: statement game, and that was to take a chance of

1462
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:27,840
Speaker 1: me play for for you, Scott Fish. I gave a

1463
01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:31,880
Speaker 1: C grade to Terrius Tony in this game mvs. If

1464
01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:34,599
Speaker 1: fully off the injury part. He had some midweek illness.

1465
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:37,840
Speaker 1: He is okay now. He's notched at least sixty yards

1466
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:40,000
Speaker 1: in four of his last six games, and he's coming

1467
01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:42,719
Speaker 1: off his first score of the season. I like Marquez

1468
01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:47,759
Speaker 1: Velde Scantling in this game. The charter secondaries playing better lately,

1469
01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:51,400
Speaker 1: holding receivers scoreless and back to back games, but I

1470
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:54,639
Speaker 1: like his individual matchup on the outside against Michael Davis,

1471
01:17:54,920 --> 01:17:57,400
Speaker 1: who gave up a season high sixty five yards last

1472
01:17:57,479 --> 01:18:00,160
Speaker 1: week and allows a passer rating of a one in

1473
01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:02,720
Speaker 1: six and four of his last six starts. That is

1474
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:06,280
Speaker 1: a positive individual matchup. MBS definitely startable as a by

1475
01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:09,720
Speaker 1: week fill in for your team. Also startable in the

1476
01:18:09,840 --> 01:18:16,280
Speaker 1: passing game. Justin Watson boy Sneaky played Dynasty Er Love

1477
01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:20,400
Speaker 1: you right now? I bet they did. He ran twenty

1478
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:24,479
Speaker 1: more snaps than Kadarius Tony did last week. He projects

1479
01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:26,400
Speaker 1: as the starter in this game, running from both the

1480
01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:29,559
Speaker 1: slot and outside, and he's got winnable matchups at every spot,

1481
01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:32,479
Speaker 1: so you know, the volume has not been there. He's

1482
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:34,639
Speaker 1: also been on the team for like twenty more months

1483
01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:39,160
Speaker 1: than actors into Honestly, yeah, I wish I could go

1484
01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:41,639
Speaker 1: back and go. And he's had these like spots. Reason

1485
01:18:41,720 --> 01:18:44,559
Speaker 1: where Justin Watson has had these big games really hasn't.

1486
01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:46,680
Speaker 1: It's like one and two catches he's and he's got

1487
01:18:46,760 --> 01:18:49,360
Speaker 1: two touchdowns on the season. But if you're like, if

1488
01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:52,000
Speaker 1: you're in a pinch, consider Justin Watson A let's go

1489
01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:55,839
Speaker 1: to the Runners first. Let's start here. Clyde Edwards despair

1490
01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:59,519
Speaker 1: totally phased out of this offense just four snaps last week.

1491
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:03,759
Speaker 1: Not only is he not startable here, he is absolutely droppable.

1492
01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:07,400
Speaker 1: You does not belong on your team. Isaiah pacheco As

1493
01:19:07,479 --> 01:19:11,400
Speaker 1: might take a chance on the Runner also startable. Derrick

1494
01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:15,240
Speaker 1: McKinnon because of his increasing snapcout at the expense of

1495
01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:18,679
Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire. He is a PPR helper with six

1496
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:21,479
Speaker 1: catches in back to back games. If he's gonna get

1497
01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:24,400
Speaker 1: six catches in in a bye week, he's scored in

1498
01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:28,200
Speaker 1: the first meeting between these teams. Jerick McKinnon startable. All right,

1499
01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:31,040
Speaker 1: let's go to a much more complicated matchup. Unfortunately with

1500
01:19:31,160 --> 01:19:33,960
Speaker 1: the Charger side of this UM, I think I'm gonna

1501
01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:37,920
Speaker 1: begin with Mike Williams and Keenan Allen. Okay, look, you

1502
01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:40,519
Speaker 1: know the danger in starting both of these guys. They're

1503
01:19:40,600 --> 01:19:43,960
Speaker 1: rolling into this thing limited and it's a Sunday night game.

1504
01:19:44,320 --> 01:19:46,640
Speaker 1: We have very few options in terms of flexing to

1505
01:19:46,720 --> 01:19:49,360
Speaker 1: somebody else if it turns out they don't go. So

1506
01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:53,400
Speaker 1: this is one of the biggest risk reward moments of

1507
01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:57,120
Speaker 1: your entire season. If you're a Mike Williams or Keenan

1508
01:19:57,240 --> 01:20:02,200
Speaker 1: Allen fantasy manager, They're ups is tremendous. The Chiefs are

1509
01:20:02,200 --> 01:20:05,400
Speaker 1: allowing the sixth most fantasy points to wide receivers, and

1510
01:20:05,479 --> 01:20:08,360
Speaker 1: at least one receiver gets paid in virtually every Chief's game.

1511
01:20:09,280 --> 01:20:13,559
Speaker 1: The downside with Mike Williams and Keenan Allen is zero

1512
01:20:13,640 --> 01:20:17,400
Speaker 1: points like they're they're they're active and they don't play

1513
01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:20,040
Speaker 1: which we've seen Keenan Allen do before they're active and

1514
01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:24,360
Speaker 1: they get reinjured. I will add this, they both logged

1515
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,439
Speaker 1: a full practice on Friday, their first one since getting

1516
01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:30,200
Speaker 1: injured for both of them. Yes, so that that's promised,

1517
01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:37,240
Speaker 1: that's that's that's but before adds you know whatever, seven

1518
01:20:37,320 --> 01:20:41,000
Speaker 1: thirty Central, eight thirty Eastern. With those guys on board,

1519
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:43,400
Speaker 1: if you're gonna do it, you need to have somebody

1520
01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:45,800
Speaker 1: else on your roster that you can pivot to. And

1521
01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:47,880
Speaker 1: by the way, you can't even go to DeAndre Carter,

1522
01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:49,679
Speaker 1: who might not go in this game, so you can't

1523
01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:53,679
Speaker 1: even go same games. Same to you, Michael Bandy. Maybe

1524
01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:56,759
Speaker 1: that's your angle. You pick up Justin Watson most likely

1525
01:20:56,960 --> 01:20:59,800
Speaker 1: get well. DeAndre Carson might be the other guy to

1526
01:20:59,840 --> 01:21:03,800
Speaker 1: have Rosster. Great point, excellent point, Josh Palmer. Upgrade. I've

1527
01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:05,439
Speaker 1: right now, I've got a C grade on new but

1528
01:21:05,600 --> 01:21:07,000
Speaker 1: I don't I'm not gonna end up with a C

1529
01:21:07,160 --> 01:21:09,760
Speaker 1: grade on him at the end of this because we're

1530
01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:12,479
Speaker 1: gonna upgrade him to a B. If Williams does not go,

1531
01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:14,879
Speaker 1: he runs with the Williams routes, and I'm gonna downgrade

1532
01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:17,920
Speaker 1: him to bench if Williams does go, So you know

1533
01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:20,880
Speaker 1: the deal on Palmer. He's been very inconsistent, but a

1534
01:21:20,960 --> 01:21:24,240
Speaker 1: plus matchup, and if Williams doesn't go, he's startable with

1535
01:21:24,400 --> 01:21:28,040
Speaker 1: a B grade. Gerald Everett is another guy that you

1536
01:21:28,160 --> 01:21:30,519
Speaker 1: can't necessarily know what to do with. He's got a

1537
01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:33,000
Speaker 1: groin injury. He's shaping up as a game time decision,

1538
01:21:33,439 --> 01:21:35,400
Speaker 1: and because it's the Sunday night game, you had all

1539
01:21:35,439 --> 01:21:37,640
Speaker 1: the same problems that Williams and Allen had and you've

1540
01:21:37,680 --> 01:21:40,960
Speaker 1: got much of the same upside. In the earlier matchup

1541
01:21:41,040 --> 01:21:44,080
Speaker 1: this year between these teams, Gerald Everett was targeted ten times,

1542
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:47,960
Speaker 1: so that's his upside. The downside is the risk of

1543
01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:50,920
Speaker 1: re injury or be him being inactive and getting use

1544
01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:56,839
Speaker 1: no points. Let's go to Justin Air Bear. His offensive

1545
01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:59,719
Speaker 1: line is killing him, maybe from basically from the rib injury.

1546
01:21:59,800 --> 01:22:03,599
Speaker 1: For forward, he's been a disaster so far since Week three,

1547
01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:08,560
Speaker 1: Justin Air Bear averaging just one touchdown per game and

1548
01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:11,200
Speaker 1: he has not hit the three yard marks since Week four.

1549
01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:14,599
Speaker 1: The best news here, though, Austin Ekeler is a receiver,

1550
01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:16,839
Speaker 1: is gonna have a huge game, and we love Eckler

1551
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:19,320
Speaker 1: is an obvious A grade. The Chiefs have allowed the

1552
01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:22,799
Speaker 1: second most receptions, fourth most yards, second most receiving touchdowns

1553
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:25,240
Speaker 1: to opposing running backs. You know what to do with

1554
01:22:25,280 --> 01:22:28,920
Speaker 1: Austin necklace. Obvious A grade and a C grade for

1555
01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:34,400
Speaker 1: justin air bear him, wear bear, now the wear bear.

1556
01:22:34,560 --> 01:22:39,360
Speaker 1: If he beware, beware, be kind of like wear bear though,

1557
01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 1: like as if you know, like on a full moon

1558
01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:44,920
Speaker 1: only justin Jeffy, you've got to plot that out. Is

1559
01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:48,280
Speaker 1: he awesome in a full moon game? Our final matchup

1560
01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:50,240
Speaker 1: is the Monday Night or forty nine is taking on

1561
01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:54,400
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Yeah, this, this one's an interesting one. It's

1562
01:22:54,400 --> 01:22:56,519
Speaker 1: a it's a really good spat spot for the forty

1563
01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:59,559
Speaker 1: Niners players especially get this. This is the staff from

1564
01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:02,960
Speaker 1: adding Adam Aser from CBS. The forty Niners as a

1565
01:23:03,040 --> 01:23:06,800
Speaker 1: team average the most yards after the catch, which makes sense.

1566
01:23:07,200 --> 01:23:12,400
Speaker 1: Kittles debo. The Cardinals allow the most yards after the catch.

1567
01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:15,600
Speaker 1: It feels like, so giddy up here for some some

1568
01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:19,040
Speaker 1: starting grades. Jimmy g was my take a chance on

1569
01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:21,280
Speaker 1: me players, So obviously I like a lot of these guys.

1570
01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:25,160
Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk the most consistent receiver on this team, at

1571
01:23:25,240 --> 01:23:27,479
Speaker 1: least six catches and at least eighty yards in four

1572
01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:31,639
Speaker 1: straight very really reliable B grade guy, about nine targets

1573
01:23:31,680 --> 01:23:34,599
Speaker 1: per game in that stretch. Cards allowing the sixth most

1574
01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:38,559
Speaker 1: receptions to receivers, and they including five wide receiver touchdowns

1575
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:41,400
Speaker 1: in just last four games. That said, only three wide

1576
01:23:41,439 --> 01:23:43,680
Speaker 1: receivers have topped eighty yards this year, so they're not

1577
01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:46,560
Speaker 1: giving up the giant games, but they're giving up a

1578
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:48,280
Speaker 1: lot of B level grades. So I have a B

1579
01:23:48,479 --> 01:23:51,400
Speaker 1: grade on Ayuk. I have a B grade on Deebo

1580
01:23:51,479 --> 01:23:53,880
Speaker 1: Samuel as well. He's been relegated to the six to

1581
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:57,800
Speaker 1: ten touch guy between carries and catches. Not as much

1582
01:23:57,880 --> 01:24:01,640
Speaker 1: boom this year, especially with m caffrey back um, but

1583
01:24:01,760 --> 01:24:03,360
Speaker 1: this is the first this is the first time in

1584
01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:07,400
Speaker 1: a bit he's been um completely off the injury report

1585
01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:10,000
Speaker 1: with that hamstring injury, so he might be a little

1586
01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:13,519
Speaker 1: bit more ready to take on more work this week. Uh,

1587
01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:16,320
Speaker 1: George Kittle A grade. It's death taxes and start your

1588
01:24:16,360 --> 01:24:19,720
Speaker 1: tight ends against Arizona Cardinals, who allowed the most receptions,

1589
01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 1: yards and touchdowns to tight ends in the running game,

1590
01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:25,040
Speaker 1: I have an A grade on Christian McCaffrey and a

1591
01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:30,599
Speaker 1: C grade on Elijah Mitchell. McCaffrey gets the pass catching,

1592
01:24:30,880 --> 01:24:33,280
Speaker 1: he gets the red zone work, he gets, he gets

1593
01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:37,599
Speaker 1: the touchdowns. Um, he gets just as much work as Mitchell.

1594
01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:40,000
Speaker 1: Mitchell really just gets the runs. If we're going to

1595
01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,360
Speaker 1: go on based on the one game sample size of

1596
01:24:42,560 --> 01:24:48,800
Speaker 1: last week runs interesting. But even in that, if we're

1597
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:52,000
Speaker 1: looking at thirty ish touches for these two, Christian with

1598
01:24:52,120 --> 01:24:55,479
Speaker 1: the pass catching and the impossible touchdowns and tend to

1599
01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:58,439
Speaker 1: fifteen from Mitchell on the ground, it's still a sea

1600
01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:01,800
Speaker 1: level grade worth of volume in this matchup. Over on

1601
01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:04,799
Speaker 1: the other side, if you have Kyler Murray or McCoy,

1602
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:06,960
Speaker 1: I have them both on the bench where you cannot

1603
01:25:07,120 --> 01:25:09,920
Speaker 1: risk waiting until Monday night to see if Kyler Murray

1604
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:12,080
Speaker 1: is gonna go with a hamstring injury that might take

1605
01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:14,479
Speaker 1: away the running problem. And that's the thing, right, even

1606
01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:17,320
Speaker 1: if he plays without the rushing, do you really want

1607
01:25:17,439 --> 01:25:20,240
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray no arm to try to get there by

1608
01:25:20,840 --> 01:25:23,880
Speaker 1: to a fantasy victor by itself against the fo's defense

1609
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:26,960
Speaker 1: that has held six quarterbacks under two yards and really

1610
01:25:27,040 --> 01:25:30,280
Speaker 1: only Mahomes had a good day in this matchup, So no,

1611
01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:33,240
Speaker 1: I have I have them whoever starts a quarterback on

1612
01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:36,880
Speaker 1: the bench. DeAndre Hopkins popped up with a hamstring injury

1613
01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:40,720
Speaker 1: on and miss practiced Thursday. Uh, it sounds like he's

1614
01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:43,439
Speaker 1: still gonna go and it's not that serious. So if

1615
01:25:43,479 --> 01:25:46,040
Speaker 1: he does, he's averaging nearly twelve targets per game since

1616
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 1: his return. Forget that ridiculous amount. Wide receivers getting even

1617
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,839
Speaker 1: eight targets or more against the forty Niners are averaging

1618
01:25:52,920 --> 01:25:54,800
Speaker 1: seven and a half catches for ninety yards. You're not

1619
01:25:54,880 --> 01:25:59,360
Speaker 1: benching DeAndre Hopkins. Let's move on. Uh, let's go over

1620
01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:01,360
Speaker 1: to Ronde or who I have a B grade on.

1621
01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:05,280
Speaker 1: More has thrived with Markus Brown out, averaging over ten

1622
01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:08,320
Speaker 1: targets per game over the last three at least seven

1623
01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:11,240
Speaker 1: catches in each a couple of games over ninety yards.

1624
01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:14,599
Speaker 1: Now with Earth's out he might see even more targets. Um,

1625
01:26:14,840 --> 01:26:17,000
Speaker 1: it's a safe spot for him. Four ns D has

1626
01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:19,400
Speaker 1: allowed six wide receivers over a hundred yards and or

1627
01:26:19,439 --> 01:26:22,280
Speaker 1: a score in just the last three games where they

1628
01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:25,360
Speaker 1: were really good earlier in the season. Marquis Brown, you're

1629
01:26:25,400 --> 01:26:29,080
Speaker 1: not starting to my him on the bench. But he is.

1630
01:26:29,479 --> 01:26:32,320
Speaker 1: He's been practicing in the videos. Look good in practice,

1631
01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:34,519
Speaker 1: But I I can't trust a Monday night thing. Even

1632
01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:36,360
Speaker 1: if they say he's gonna go. You you got him

1633
01:26:36,400 --> 01:26:39,040
Speaker 1: on your bench. I also have McBride on on on

1634
01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:40,800
Speaker 1: my bench. But I want to see what he does.

1635
01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:44,280
Speaker 1: It's just a bad, bad match up against the place

1636
01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:47,120
Speaker 1: for a breakout game. I'm excited to see how he does, though,

1637
01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:49,120
Speaker 1: But only two tight ends of top twenty three yards

1638
01:26:49,120 --> 01:26:52,080
Speaker 1: against the forty Niners James Conner just to see grade,

1639
01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:55,639
Speaker 1: mostly due to the volume. Forty Niners only allowed three

1640
01:26:55,680 --> 01:26:57,640
Speaker 1: point to five yards per carry, which is best in

1641
01:26:57,680 --> 01:27:01,080
Speaker 1: the NFL. Fust rush yards allowed running back his top

1642
01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:05,040
Speaker 1: sixty yards only four running back touchdowns allowed. That's like nothing.

1643
01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:08,160
Speaker 1: But James Connor is gonna get fifteen plus touches, so

1644
01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:11,200
Speaker 1: he gets my patented volume. See now with you know

1645
01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:15,200
Speaker 1: Benjamin out of town. Yes, all right, did patented. By

1646
01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:17,519
Speaker 1: the way, I'm nicely done. Getting out through the patent office.

1647
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:20,280
Speaker 1: Not easy. It's not that is not easy. Talk to

1648
01:27:20,360 --> 01:27:23,040
Speaker 1: me about Marquis Brown upon his return. Not this Monday.

1649
01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:27,560
Speaker 1: Let's just go next Monday forward. Because without Hopkins, he

1650
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:33,080
Speaker 1: was like a top five fantasy receiver. Now with Hopkins back,

1651
01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:36,040
Speaker 1: what do you think going forward? What about Hopkins with

1652
01:27:36,200 --> 01:27:39,719
Speaker 1: Marked I don't know. I think they're both wide receiver twos.

1653
01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:43,360
Speaker 1: I don't know they can both be a wide receiver one. Yeah.

1654
01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:46,240
Speaker 1: I think Ron Delmore does disappear and Arts is out,

1655
01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:48,519
Speaker 1: so there's target right, So that's that does help. I

1656
01:27:48,600 --> 01:27:51,439
Speaker 1: think both guys can become effective starters. I trust I

1657
01:27:51,479 --> 01:27:54,800
Speaker 1: only trust Tyler Murray to keep two receivers active total

1658
01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:57,599
Speaker 1: on that quick angle. Colt McCoy stash and deep super

1659
01:27:57,680 --> 01:28:00,639
Speaker 1: flex leagues because the Cardinals love is there are seasons

1660
01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:05,320
Speaker 1: effectively over. Maybe you never know with Brown and don't.

1661
01:28:05,360 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if I want pull mcquit or any

1662
01:28:06,880 --> 01:28:11,240
Speaker 1: situation maybe QB two leagues. Thank you for listening to
