Titans, coming off that victory in 49 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: Will Levis's first start, go to Pittsburgh and those what 50 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: did Trevor Lawrence call him? Those little towels or something? 51 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: Little towels, little yellow towels. So that's what the Titans 52 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: deal with this week. Pittsburgh's three point favorites total very 53 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: low at thirty six around the bad, I guess defenses 54 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: will be in play, maybe even kickers. But who you 55 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: like in the captain spot? 56 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm gonna go George Pickens here just because 57 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 3: this you know, the Titans are a pass final defense. 58 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 3: So I'm looking at either Deontay Johnson or George Pickens 59 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 3: in the captain slot. Johnson is playing at a very 60 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 3: high level right now, coming off his best game of 61 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 3: the year last week. I think, you know, he could 62 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 3: open things up a bit for Pickens. And you know, well, 63 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 3: you know, Deontay has the higher median projection, mainly because 64 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 3: he has a higher reception projection every week. Pickens just 65 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 3: has the higher ceiling, I think, just given his big 66 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 3: play up side, his touch on upside. So I'm gonna 67 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: roll with Pickens in the captain slot. I think he 68 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 3: has the best chance of having a captain worthy game. 69 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 3: And it sounds like Pickett is going to try to play. 70 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 3: But I don't think this matters whether it's Pickett or 71 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: Trubisky under center. I think I'm gonna go with Pickens 72 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 3: here in the captain slot. 73 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, and just got to hope that Matt Canada or 74 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: maybe as Tomlin doesn't just try to run the ball 75 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: at this great Titan run defense. I do think you 76 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: need to go to your aerial attack to really have 77 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: success against this defense. It kind of plays right into 78 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: the hands if you just run the ball every first down. 79 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: But for my captain, pick gotta go with Derrick Henry here. 80 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: I think that, you know, rookie quarterback on the road, 81 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 1: probably what you're gonna do. I mean, that's what the 82 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: Titans MO has been for most of his career. Pittsburgh 83 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: is a run funnel. Yeah, run funnel defense. They're top 84 00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: ten in past defense DVA, but sixteenth against the rush, 85 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: so pretty average. And you know, I feel like a 86 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: few weeks ago, I don't know, is Henry kind of 87 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: slowing down? Well, lo and behold, he's he's got the 88 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: second best PFF grade among running backs. He's fifth in 89 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: rushing yards, He's tied for second in runs of fifteen 90 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: yards or more. He's tied for fourth in missed tackles forced. 91 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: So he's still the King's still got it, and his 92 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: Tennessee interior line has been playing well. 93 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 2: All of them. 94 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: Are playing really well at run blocking, you know, Brewer 95 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: the center rank sixth of thirty eighth at PFF and 96 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: run blocking run skill twenty second out of seventy seven 97 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: guards in Skearansky twenty seventh. And even if Hubbard misses 98 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: with the concussion, which is likely, Dillard's been a pretty 99 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: solid run blocker as well, So I don't think the 100 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: line will be an issue. And Henry's play clearly hasn't 101 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: fallen off, so I think he'll get a steady dose 102 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: of work on the in what should be a lower 103 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: scoring affair here. 104 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can never go wrung with Henry. Looks like 105 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 3: he's staying put in Tennessee. There's always a chance he 106 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 3: could get traded. It is his time year. It's starting 107 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 3: to get colder. Well maybe not in La it's ninety 108 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 3: degrees a day, but the sun is setting sooner. You 109 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 3: know we're about to set the clocks back. This is 110 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 3: the time of year where King Henry usually shined. So yeah, 111 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 3: I definitely like him in the captain slot. 112 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: What do you like for value? 113 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 2: I'm going Connor Hayward here. 114 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 3: You know he's only twenty eight hundred, you know, another 115 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 3: way to target the Titans pass final defense. He's the 116 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 3: clear league tight end right now. He's seen an over 117 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 3: eighty percent routes run rate in back to back games. Now, 118 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 3: He's like the only player Matt Canada seems to get 119 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 3: creative with. He had a nice design play to him 120 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 3: against the Rams, almost scored a touchdown on They've used 121 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 3: him at running backs at times in the preseason, like 122 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 3: they like to get creative with Connor Hayward. So now 123 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 3: he's getting a ton of playing time. This is a 124 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 3: great spot to play. I still think he's under the radar. 125 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 3: I was like twenty slots higher on him on ECR. 126 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 3: I don't get it, Like he's getting a ton of 127 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 3: playing time. Should see plenty of looks here. So I 128 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 3: think he's a sneaky player for the Showdown site. 129 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's. 130 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: Their new starting tight end as long as Friar Ruth 131 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: is out in prime Ruth, you know, reaggravating that injury, 132 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: so it might be a while. And Hayward, Yeah, he's 133 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: been over eighty percent eighty percent or better route participation 134 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: in his first two start, so definitely a positive sign. 135 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: I haven't Yeah, just outside my top fifteen. It's tight 136 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: in seventeen. It's two open the week, so love him 137 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: as well. I'm gonna go with Will Levis here. I 138 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: think he's a very intriguing play because I think, you know, 139 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: low total game, the total is only thirty six, you know, 140 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback on the road. I think only one rookie 141 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: quarterback has won in Pittsburgh and that was Dak Prescott. 142 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: I think they're like one in twenty or something ridiculous 143 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: in error in the tom, yeah, and the tom and error. 144 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: But I do think that this all this kind of 145 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: plays into lews potentially surprising people again because what Levis 146 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: does well is throw the ball down the field. We 147 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: saw that last week and Pittsburgh twenty second in deep 148 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: past Dvoa. According to FTN, they're number two on short passes, 149 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: so they're a deep pass funnel if there is such 150 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: a thing. And Levis was three of eight for one 151 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: hundred and forty one yards and three scores on passes 152 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 1: that traveled at these twenty yards beyond the line of scrimmage. 153 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: Last week, according to PFF, Pittsburgh's safety mink of Fitzpatrick, 154 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: very talented safety, is out for this game with a 155 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: hamstring injury, and Pittsburgh ranks dead last on defense an 156 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 1: explosive past rate allowed and that was with Fitzpatrick. So 157 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: I think this matchup kind of plays right into Levis 158 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: pus potentially kind of surprising people in because of the 159 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: presence of Derrick Henry that play action game is going 160 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: to be in play no pun intended, so you could 161 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: get you know, I like Henry. I think he's the 162 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: most obvious and highest floor, highest ceiling play here. But 163 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: you can get a lot of leverage fading Henry and 164 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: going with Levis even in the captain spot, or you know, 165 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: going with Hopkins or something like that, because I think 166 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: Henry is still going to be the most popular. But 167 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: a long passing touchdown that essentially negates everyone else who 168 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: doesn't participate in it, right, you know, it's just the 169 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: quarterback and whoever catches the long pass, and there's no, 170 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: you know, there's no four or five receptions to drive 171 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: downfield with and all the yards and and all stuff 172 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: that comes with it. So I really like will Levis 173 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: as a leverage play on a lot of the other Titans, 174 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: especially Henry. 175 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. 176 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 3: The Fitzpatrick injury is a huge blow to the Steelers defense. 177 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 3: Although I think Connor Hayward's brother it might be returning 178 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 3: this week. 179 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 2: Does that happen? 180 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: I mean, but that would hurt Henry more than elevens technically, 181 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 1: So no, I. 182 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 3: Know, I know, I know, but you know, could generate 183 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 3: some pressure. But I just had to refer to him 184 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 3: as Connor Hayward's brother. 185 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: Right, yeah, No, I think it's the other way in 186 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: that household. Yeah yeah, yeah, see if I think it was, 187 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, at least has the potential to catch, to catch, 188 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: to catch the Steelers off guard, especially on a short week. 189 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 2: But who do you like? Forgot girls like? Okay, I'm 190 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 2: more of a you know, a corn hoole man myself. Yeah, 191 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 2: I'm going Spears. 192 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 3: I do agree. I think Henry's a great play here. 193 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 3: They should lean on him heavily. Why not here? But 194 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 3: you know, Spears obviously sees a ton of passing work. 195 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 3: So if by chance this turns into a trailing game 196 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 3: script for the Titans, which is more than possible. Uh, 197 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 3: you know, Spears could end up catching three to five 198 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 3: balls here. Plus you know he's just a really talented runner, 199 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 3: so he could do some damage on just a few 200 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 3: carries a few receptions. So definitely, like on a single 201 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 3: game slate, nice leverage against Henry. Again, you always refer 202 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 3: to like set your lineup based on like a story 203 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 3: of like what the game script will be. This will 204 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 3: be part of my Titans are trailing by a score 205 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 3: or two lineups. But yeah, I like Spears as dart 206 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 3: throw here. 207 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, I got a Titans player in the passing game too, 208 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: and I don't believe he caught a pass last week. 209 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: So I always love to target guys coming off bad games. 210 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: Nash Trailan Burks, who is thirty eight hundred on DraftKings. 211 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: He had an average depth of target of He has 212 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: an average up of target this season of nineteen. In 213 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 1: his first game with Levis, it was thirty eight, so 214 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: Levis was looking downfield for Burks didn't really connect. You know, 215 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: I had an almost connection, so they weren't too far off. 216 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: But he was the number two wide receiver for the 217 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: Titans last week, and he should see his route participation 218 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: rate continue to rise back to the seventy mid seventies, 219 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: maybe even the eighties that it was early in the year. 220 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 1: And the thing about Burks, and you know, who knows 221 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: if this is truly predictive, ranted, but I think it's 222 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: an interesting thing to note his two of his three 223 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: highest scoring fantasy games have come on Thursday nights. He 224 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: had his best fantasy game last week eleven against the 225 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: Packers on a Thursday night, seven catches for one hundred 226 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: and eleven yards out of nowhere over twenty Draftings points 227 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: in nineteen Fandel points. And then in Week seventeen he 228 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 1: had a four catch sixty six yard game on Thursday 229 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: night in a match up against the Cowboys. And primetime generally, 230 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: in general, is where Burkes has been at his best. 231 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: He averages seven point three targets, four point eight catches 232 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: over sixty yards in primetime, and when he's not in 233 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: primetime just one point eight catches twenty seven yards. So 234 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: and he's played four prime time games already in his 235 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: short career, so he's had six or more targets and 236 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: all four of them. He's only had six or more 237 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 1: targets and three of his eleven non prime time gets, 238 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: So there's definitely something about prime time that makes this 239 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: guy show up. We'll see and how that goes. But 240 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: I love the uncertainty with a new quarterback who could 241 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: be a little bit undervalued. I love the fact that 242 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: the quarterback is looking for Burkes down the field and 243 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: generally Burks is being kind of that downfield receiver. And 244 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: because Westbrook Akine quote a long touchdown last week, I 245 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: think people will be on him, which will divert some 246 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: of the roster ship away from trailing Burke. So always 247 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 1: loved to jump on a guy who didn't produce the 248 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: week before. 249 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 2: Give me some Burks. 250 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, both Akina and Burkes had two targets with an 251 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 3: eight out of thirty eight, Like we're brookes. Did he 252 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: get like two forty yard bombs thrown him or was 253 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 3: it like a sixty yarder and a twenty yarder? Like 254 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 3: where were those targets? 255 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: He definitely had a I think he had an almost 256 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: big play that got like they didn't quite connect on 257 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 1: and I forget what the other target was, but yeah, 258 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: definitely's definitely and this has been a case. 259 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 2: All season for Berks. 260 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: He's you know, more of a downfield guy, especially because Hopkins. 261 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: I know he got downfield last week, but that's really 262 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: everyone again under Levis, Everyone's going downfield now. So I 263 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: think there's there could be some value on this Titans 264 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: past game of Levis can could show some more of 265 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: what he show last week. So I'm very interesting to 266 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: see how this all plays out. But let's go to 267 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: the main slate. Who are some quarterbacks and stacks that 268 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: you're building around. 269 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 3: So my first one and more traditional double stack, I 270 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 3: got Dak Prescott, Ceedee Lamb, and Jake Ferguson. You know, 271 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 3: the Cowboys had struggle to run the ball with Tony Pollard, 272 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 3: especially recently. I mean they were in a game where 273 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 3: they whooped the Rams and they only gave the running 274 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 3: back seventeen total carries. And this is a game where 275 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 3: you know they're facing an e defense that is a 276 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 3: very pass funnel defense this year, so I'm expecting a 277 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 3: ton of passive attempts from Dak. Plus he's been using 278 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 3: his legs a lot more, which is nice to see. 279 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 3: And you mentioned on the other pod that they're kind 280 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 3: of phasing out gallop for Jalen Tolbert. So it's kind 281 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 3: of a murky wide receiver room, you know, behind Lamb 282 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 3: and I guess Brandon Cooks. So I just like you know, 283 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 3: stacking Prescott with Lamb here. And I'm super high on 284 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 3: Jake Ferguson this week. He's my tight end three. This 285 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 3: is a great matchup for tight ends against the Eagles, 286 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 3: and Ferguson's only four K, so I think he's providing 287 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 3: good value. 288 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 2: So I like that double stack and then have a. 289 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 3: Fun every you know, every year, I have one or 290 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 3: two times I take a shot at a double running 291 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 3: back stack. 292 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 2: Sometimes these can hit. 293 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 3: You know, it's not correlated in any way, but you know, 294 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 3: for tournaments, if you hit, it can be very sneaky. 295 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 3: So I'm going with both Jonathan Taylor and Zach Moss 296 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 3: against the Panthers. If there's a running duo that could 297 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 3: both hit, it's this one this year. You know, Zach 298 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 3: Moss is barely able to practice last week, barely suited up, 299 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 3: and still manage, you know, a near fifty to fifty 300 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 3: split with JT. Both running backs had amazing games and 301 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 3: now they face arguably the worst run defense in the 302 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 3: league here against the Panthers. So I like the idea 303 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 3: of using both Taylor and Moss in the same lineup 304 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 3: and hopefully both of them, you know, have a big game, 305 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 3: which is possible. They've done it a couple of times 306 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 3: this year, so why not take a flyer on it now. 307 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 308 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: I like this game to stack period because it's it's 309 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: just cheap all the way around, and there's been a 310 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: lot of variants with these guys. So because you know, 311 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: the Panthers have a clear weakness on defense and the 312 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: coach defense hasn't been too hot itself. The Coats have 313 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: been getting in all these kind of shootouts. We've seen 314 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew throw for you know, three hundred plus yards 315 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: and two of his last three games been a lot 316 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: of explosive plays on both sides for the Coats. So 317 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: I actually like both passing games. And this was somewhat 318 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: of a contrarian stack. But Bryce Young just fifty one hundred. 319 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: You can pair them with Adam Deeven obviously, and Jonathan Mingo, 320 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 1: who I know we both love this week, and he's 321 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: only thirty four hundred, so a pretty cost effective stack. 322 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:25,959 Speaker 1: And I also like Minshew Pittman and Downs. You know, Downs, 323 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: I believe I have beside my top thirty this week. 324 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: You know, Pittman's been kind of barking about, you know, 325 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: making sure they target him enough. And I think, you know, 326 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,239 Speaker 1: both of these defenses are just so vulnerable that this 327 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 1: game could turn into a shootout, like if let's say 328 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: your Taylor Moss stack hits. I think these passing games 329 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: might still have to do work because we've I mean 330 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,360 Speaker 1: we've seen them play shootouts with teams you never expected 331 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 1: the Coats, especially to play shootouts with And then the 332 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 1: Panthers new offensive coordinator, you're using some tempo. Bryce Young's 333 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 1: looking better and better out there. They're kind of phasing 334 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: out some of the you know, the guys that aren't 335 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: performing as well, like Miles Sanders and Hayden Hurst and 336 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 1: you know, looking for you know, more mingo. So I 337 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 1: like both sides of this game, and it's super affordable 338 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: all both sides. With both of these quarterbacks, you know, 339 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: right around five K, and there was you know the 340 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: receipt wide receiver two. You don't have to pay much 341 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: for either. So I really like this game for stack 342 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: and purpose of sneaky shoot out here. 343 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. 344 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 3: I like Minshew Pittman downs with feeling in there is 345 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 3: a very spicy game stack love. 346 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, all right, who you like for dark throws? 347 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 2: Y'all take your darts over here pretty seriously. Huh. 348 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 3: So running back it's slim Pickens. There's no like obvious 349 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 3: dark throws this week. But I do like, you know, 350 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 3: Devin Singletariat the forty three hundred range against the Buccaneers 351 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 3: because he's pretty much forced you know, a fifty to 352 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 3: fifty committee with Damian Pierce. I think you mentioned that 353 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 3: last week, but there you know, there's a chancey leap 354 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 3: frogs in any week. 355 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 2: Now. 356 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 3: This is kind of similar to Miles Sanders and Chuba 357 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,719 Speaker 3: Hubbard situation Carolina. So I think that that does make 358 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 3: him sneaking GPPs. You know, the Texans are three point favorites, 359 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 3: so there just could be extra volume for running backs overall, 360 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 3: which which helps you know Singletary's upside. So I think 361 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 3: he's definitely worth a flying GPPs at forty three hundred. 362 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 3: I like going with one Dale Robinson at wide receiver 363 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 3: at thirty five hundred against the Raiders. He's coming off 364 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 3: two very quiet games, but that just might be due 365 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 3: to just having better chemistry with Daniel Jones than he 366 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 3: does with Tyrod Taylor. So you know, Daniel Jones potentially 367 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 3: returning this week that could boost Robinson. Here, he's coming 368 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 3: off a season high eighty eight percent routes run rate. 369 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 3: He didn't catch a single pass, but you know, I 370 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 3: love that underlying usage. Paris Campbell and Sterling Shepherd have 371 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 3: been completely phased out for Robinson, So a ton of 372 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,439 Speaker 3: upside where you know, if Darren Waller is banged up 373 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 3: or out, you know Robinson could get five or more 374 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 3: receptions here at Dan Damn near min price. So love 375 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 3: this play against the Raiders. And then speaking of the Raiders, 376 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 3: I like their tight end as a dart throw. Michael Mayer, 377 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 3: he's twenty six hundred, you know, had a very disappointing 378 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 3: Mony Night football game. He'll like caught the one pass 379 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 3: for nineteen yard, but really everybody on the Raiders passing 380 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 3: offense disappointed. He did run a season high I guess 381 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 3: career high eighty two routes on rate though, so just 382 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 3: massive upside if he could start seeing more targets. So 383 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 3: I think this is a great time to buy low, 384 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 3: you know, especially at twenty six hundred. 385 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 2: He's gonna be inconsistent. 386 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 3: He's a rookie tight end, so I would not be 387 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 3: shocked if he bounces back and has a four or 388 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 3: five catch game here, just given his underlying usage recently. 389 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean this could this is the ultimate I 390 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: guess contrarian passing game to target. If you had the 391 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: Giants who were scared to even attempt to pass last week, 392 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: Raiders that just could not complete have haste, and now 393 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: they are facing off, so should be an interesting matchup. 394 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think people, especially with the Raiders on 395 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: primetime and the Giants playing in a relatively popular game 396 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 1: for them against the Jets, you know, people will probably 397 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: be a little hesitant because both of them embarrassed themselves, 398 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,400 Speaker 1: you know on I guess you say national TV, even 399 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: for the Giants, so they were probably seen by more 400 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: people than usual. So yeah, like that one as well. 401 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: And I mentioned, you know, with a mon ra Saint 402 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: Brown last week. But the Raiders on defense, they try 403 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: not to give up explosives now, and when they do 404 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: give up explosives, it's not the traditional explosive. It was 405 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: like you know, you saw Aman Rock catch it underneath 406 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,479 Speaker 1: and then the catch and run was what made them 407 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: play explosives. So that suits Robinson because I think Slayton 408 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: is tempting too. If Daniel Jones is back, you know, 409 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 1: they go way back and Slayton's also running a ton 410 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: of routes. But this Raider defense is not the ideal 411 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: scheme for a big Darius Slayton game, perfect for Wandale Robinson, 412 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 1: So I totally agree with that call. I so, yeah, 413 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: running back, I mean, I wouldn't say there's no dark throws. 414 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: I just think there's like there's a lot of options. 415 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: Like you know, Demricato, I'm sure is gonna be pretty popular, 416 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 1: So I think you have to find ways to kind 417 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: of fade him and Darryl Henderson, who has been will 418 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: more productive than Freeman as of late. But Freeman still 419 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: getting the early down work and he's forty six hundred 420 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: at green Bay, so you know, green Bay is still 421 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: like a field goal spread. Green Bay is no guarantee 422 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: to play with the lead here. They've been inconsistent on 423 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball, bottom eight in run defense, 424 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: DVOA as usual. So Freeman outsnap Henderson thirty three twenty 425 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 1: nine last week, But you know, Henderson's used on some 426 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: more passing down so you get some gamescript variants that 427 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: maybe people aren't expecting, especially with the backup quarterback on 428 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 1: the road, and you could have a you know, even 429 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: a multi touchdown game from Freeman with a little bit 430 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: of luck. So like him at forty six hundred, already mentioned, 431 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: Mingo at wide receiver thirty four hundred is way too 432 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 1: cheap against Indianapolis season high ninety eight percent route rate 433 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 1: last week season high sixty two yards and most you know, 434 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: about two thirds of his targets come against zone coverage, 435 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: which is the coach play zone at the highest rate 436 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: in the league under Gus Bradley by that cover three, 437 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: whereas de Win just fifty four percent of his targets 438 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: coming at zone and Chart fifty two percent. So Mingo 439 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: could have another kind of breakout game here. And Logan 440 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: Thomas top five tight end on the slate, you know, 441 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: just in terms of his production year to date, and 442 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: he's had forty or more yards and or a touchdown 443 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: at six of the seven games. And the Patriots are 444 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: second and last second worst in DVLA against the tight 445 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: end position. And how has really you know, took taken 446 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: a liking to Logan Thomas and targeted him pretty much 447 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: almost you know, on par with that talented receiving group. 448 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: So like Logan Thomas at thirty five hundred against the 449 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: New England Patriots. All right, let's go and build a 450 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 1: DraftKings lineup and you can start us off. 451 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 2: We what're you going with? 452 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 3: Yay, Gotta lock in Jake Ferguson at four K. Gotta 453 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 3: do that, all right. 454 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to Mario Douglas at four K. 455 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,439 Speaker 3: I got remove him from my lineup already, put them 456 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 3: in there, all right, Yeah, I got to get these 457 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 3: like really valuable guys out, all right. I'll go with 458 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 3: Jonathan Mingo then at thirty four hundred. 459 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, we love him this week as well. I'm gonna 460 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,239 Speaker 1: go with the cheapest defense on the board, the New 461 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: York Giants, Oh no, the Vegas Raiders. The Giants defense 462 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: has allowed fourteen points to the Bills, seven points to 463 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: the Commanders, and thirteen points of the Jets over the 464 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 1: last three weeks, and have twelve or more points in 465 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 1: three in the last four games. So let's punt some 466 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: defense and hope we catch Jimmy g More. Jimmy g 467 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: Shenanigans again this week. But you know, Giants, they did 468 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: trade Williams, so this should be a very very contrarian player. 469 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,639 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe not if people saw that Raiders game. But uh, 470 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: gonna gonna roll the dice here. 471 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 2: Nice. 472 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 3: You always get me on the defensive. That's that's my strategy. 473 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 3: Defensive projections are not in good shape. Tuesday morning. I think, 474 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 3: I think I see what I might take later though, 475 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with a running back then. Yeah, I'm 476 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 3: gonna go with JT at sixty four hundred against Panthers. 477 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 1: Oh now, well, you stacking with Moss is the question? 478 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,880 Speaker 2: I know, right, that's not a bad cash game strategic either, Yeah, 479 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 2: I mean it's actually you're gonna get the entire rushing 480 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 2: offense though. 481 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: Speaking of which, let's stack my Giants d with Saquon 482 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: thirty six carries last week and five targets, even though 483 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: you didn't get a yard on the through the air. 484 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: But I you know is this Giants offense did not 485 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 1: get traded, and we saw what Jamiir Gibbs did to 486 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: this Raider D love the correlation. Giants obviously a live 487 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 1: underdog on the road, regardless of who starts the quarterbacks 488 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: at quarterback against this this just Raider team, So give 489 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 1: me nine hundred. 490 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 3: All right, I'm gonna go with the quarterback. Just I 491 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 3: don't like the slate. There's some decent value, like in 492 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 3: the five k range, but I'm gonna spend up a 493 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 3: little bit. Uh So I'm gonna take Dak at sixty 494 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 3: five hundred. 495 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'm going against that egle Path defense. It's 496 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,199 Speaker 1: been pretty disappointed. 497 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I have a little Dak Ferguson's stat going on 498 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 3: right now. 499 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: All right, Well, that means I don't have to worry 500 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: about quarterback for now. So I feel like I do 501 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 1: this every week. Now, let's go. Adam Deevens seventy five 502 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: hundred fifteen or more draftings points every game since Week two, guys, 503 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:04,919 Speaker 1: just ageous wonder and he's catching seven plus passes for 504 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: He's caught seven or more passes in six straight games. 505 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: That is impressive. 506 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 3: Definitely a better DK play than Fandul. So like, I'm 507 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 3: on DK, I'm gonna just get my defense out. 508 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 2: Of the way. 509 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 3: I'm going with the Packers facing hopefully Brett Repin here, 510 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 3: so they're kind of sneaky. At twenty hundred again not 511 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 3: putting too much my defensive play, but going the cheaper 512 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 3: out here. 513 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I mean just gotta hope Joe Barry doesn't 514 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: you know, have any Joe Barry Shenanigans because that defense, 515 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 1: I mean, their talent level compared to their performance, and 516 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,959 Speaker 1: it's been better, like the offense has been obviously more 517 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: to blame as of right, but I still think there's 518 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: some things we desired. But yeah, I think this is 519 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 1: definitely a week where because of all of the backup 520 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: quarterbacks on a slate, a lot of different directions you 521 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: could go with on demons. And I mean even look 522 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: at that Raiders game on Monday Night Football, it was 523 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: the Raiders who got the touch a defensive touchdown. So 524 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's a lot of it is just 525 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: going to be randomness. So now it's a pretty good 526 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: week to go contrarian at defense. So I got fifty 527 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 1: six sixty for quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end 528 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: in flex, I'll run my hatriot, I'll run my Pop 529 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: Douglas play back with Logan Thomas at tight end at 530 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: thirty five hundred against that bottom to New England defense 531 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 1: against tight ends. 532 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 2: Why the hell. 533 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 3: Is Michael Thomas forty seven hundred. Am I pulling in 534 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 3: Mike Thomas. 535 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 2: He's actual Tee Higgins and remember squad player for the Ravens, 536 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 2: Mike Thomas. Yeah, I know right. 537 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 3: Michael Thomas has at least four catches or a touch 538 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 3: on every game this year. So I'm gonna go with him. 539 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 3: I guess the Bears too. Geez, always sign me up 540 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 3: for that. 541 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, it's it's been a lot of I mean 542 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: he's been. He's kind of an up and down a 543 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: little bit. You know, I think Carl trust Thomas's probably 544 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: starting to trust you. He yes much too. 545 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 2: Had a game, man, Man, here is something else. 546 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: I'll counter your Mike Thomas. 547 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 2: Michael Thomas and pay up. 548 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: For Alvin Kamara at running back eighty one hundred home 549 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: favorite against the Chicago Bears. He has seventeen or more 550 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 1: draftings points in every game, has just been absolute monster 551 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: this season. 552 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 2: RB one this week. 553 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so I have seventy four hundred reminding per player. 554 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 3: I have a running back, wide receiver, and flex open, 555 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 3: so I gotta start spin it up a bit. You 556 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 3: have Kamara N Barkley, Yep, Okay, Well I'll go with 557 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 3: my RB three for this late then, which is Josh 558 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 3: Jacobs at sixty nine hundred gets the Giants. I mean, 559 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 3: obviously a bad season so far, but you know he's 560 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 3: due to break out at some point, so I like 561 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 3: him hur at this price tag. 562 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he's been I mean he's a getting to work, 563 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: you know, through the air. On the ground, however, and 564 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: the Giants gaff that long touchdown to Breeze Hall through 565 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 1: the air last week. All right, I have just over 566 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: fifty five hundred for quarterback wide receiver flex, so I've 567 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: got my quarterback out of the way. Let's go Jordan 568 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: Love at exactly fifty five hundred against a pretty beatable 569 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 1: Rams defense. You know, Matt Lafleur is probably not gonna 570 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: run as much as you should, even against the backup 571 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: quarterback and his packerst He's been up and down, so 572 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: Love has been fairly consistent, had some ceiling games. But yeah, 573 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: let's go with him against this Rams team at fifty 574 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: five hundred. 575 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 3: All right, So I gotta start spending some money, so 576 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 3: I'm gonna gonna go with aj Brown at eighty six hundred. 577 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 3: Clearly my clear number one receiver for this slate. A 578 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 3: little many Eagles Cowboys game stack here and he's going 579 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 3: for what game six or seven in row one hundred 580 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 3: and twenty five or more receiver pards here he broke 581 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 3: the record. I was saying that was sneaky over bet 582 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 3: in his prop market because you know, maybe he's going 583 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 3: for the record. But now that I think he has it, 584 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 3: I don't know if it's there. 585 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 2: But this is a big game. Like you said, he's 586 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 2: unstoppable right now, so I'll more than happy to spend up. 587 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, A J. Brown's just been I mean, that's 588 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: that's why I'm low. And Devonte Smith this week he's 589 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 1: just kind of hogging, hogging the production. You know what, 590 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go a little off the board. Let's stack 591 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: my Jordan of Love with Christian Watson at forty nine hundred. 592 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: Still hasn't broken out yet, but he's had eight rounte 593 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: right around eighty five percent route participation rate in each 594 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 1: of the last three games, eight targets last week. They're 595 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: looking for him in the end zone, so I think 596 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: it's only a matter of time before he catches a 597 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: touchdown in the end zone or it breaks off when 598 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:54,719 Speaker 1: of his patented a long, long, big explosive plays. So 599 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: give me some Watson at forty nine hundred, I'll have 600 00:31:58,600 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 1: sixty three left for the flex. 601 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 3: He is certainly due. I have sixty seven hundred left. 602 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with the best receiver available at that price. 603 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 3: Michael Pittman is sixty six hundred. I have Jonathan Taylor. 604 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 3: Unlike you know, Taylor and Zach moss in the same lineup. 605 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 3: I do think Taylor and Pittman in the same lineup 606 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 3: is sort of a savvy cash game play here, So 607 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 3: I like it. 608 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 2: So I have one hundred dollars left over. 609 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: All right, So I have sixty three hundred for my 610 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: flex I'm looking at I could go alave here, I 611 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: could go Tyler Lockett, Bjohn Robinson. Who I'm thinking about 612 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper, let's go or I could go down, pay 613 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: down a little more. You have DJ More, Nico Collins, 614 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: Zach No, you have Zach Mossy right, well. 615 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 2: Do you have you have Taylor? You have Taylor? Yeah? 616 00:32:54,920 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: Okay, well gianty Foreman's price way too high fifty seven hundred. 617 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 2: Are you sure about that? 618 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 3: I mean right, yeah, he'll probably go off for a 619 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 3: three touchdown, But yeah, I agree. 620 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with b John Robinson here at just 621 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: sixty one hundred. So he started the year priced at 622 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: eight K. He's been seventy seven hundred or more until 623 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: Week six, and he bottomed out last week at six K, 624 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: and now he's sixty one hundred, So you're getting almost 625 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: a twenty five percent discount from you know, his season 626 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: high end price. And I always like that, you know, 627 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: in terms of finding value here. So give me Bejon 628 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: in a game where the Falcons should be able to 629 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: maintain possession, which means a lot of runs for Bijo. 630 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 3: All right, So I went with Dak at quarterback. My 631 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 3: running backs are Jonathan Taylor and Josh Jacobs.

My flex is Michael Pittman, 635 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 3: and my defense is the Green Bay Packers up against 636 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 3: hopefully Brett Rippin and the Rams. 637 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: All right. I got Jordan Love at quarterback fifty five 638 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 1: hundred against those Rams, Barkley at running back at seventy 639 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: nine one hundred at the Raiders Camara eighty one hundred 640 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: against the Bears, Pijon at running back in the Flex 641 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: at sixty one hundred against the Vikings at home.
