1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: The most valuable commodity I know of is information.

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you agree.

3
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: To five five dollars?

4
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 2: This is a rousing, all up, happy, tackled one. You're

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 2: saying that humans need fantasy to make.

6
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: Life bearable, humans need fantasy to be human. My goodness,

7
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: not misspeak.

8
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 2: Prone, the best, relentless, refusing to give up.

9
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: All right, hit that horn, very bless.

10
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Fantasy Flex podcast from the Action Network

11
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: in Fantasy Abs, this is your NFL Week two DFS preview.

12
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 2: I'm your host, Chris Raymond, and as always I'm joined

13
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 2: by one of the most accurate rankers in the game,

14
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,279
Speaker 2: the odds maker Sean Curd. Sean, a pretty good week

15
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 2: for you on this podcast. I think for four of

16
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 2: your guys uh score touchdowns?

17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: How you yeah? Good? I mean I mentioned last week

18
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: I love our new format kind of giving out a

19
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 1: dart throw for every game of the week, and I

20
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: hit on a you head on a time as well,

21
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: and I kind of mentioned that not only are these

22
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 1: like great DFS plays, but I remember last year a

23
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: lot of our dart throws actually scored touchdowns too. So

24
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: if you're betting on like touchdowns or want like a

25
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: guy with like longer odds that the market's probably overlooking.

26
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: That's kind of what we're doing here. It's probably a

27
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: good system. And I think we're trying to put together numbers.

28
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: But if you bet on all our guys that score

29
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: touchdown last week would have been up like eight units

30
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 1: or so, which is crazy.

31
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. I'll have to go through the guys the hits

32
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 2: in a moment, but I then we'll get into dart

33
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 2: throw for each game on the slate, all sixteen of them.

34
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: But before we do, I just want to quickly remind

35
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,480

39
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 2: line in terms of the Fantasy Pro's Accuracy contest. Got

40
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 2: a couple of trophies. I know you got like thirty

41
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 2: thousand trophies behind you for winning first place in weekly accuracy.

42
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 2: So it should be a good another good season. And

43
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 2: as I mentioned last week, so here are the guys

44
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 2: that you called out that scored Isaiah Likelely who closed

45
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 2: that five to one to score a touchdown, Michael Wilson,

46
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 2: who didn't do much besides the touchdown, but also closed

47
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 2: up five to one. Ryan Thomas right right, Ryan Thomas Junior,

48
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 2: who closed plus two eighty. JK. Dobbins who closed plus

49
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 2: two ten. Then I had Jayden Daniels scored a rushing

50
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 2: touchdown that was plus two thirty, Jalen Naylor plus seven fifty,

51
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 2: and then Allen was Hard scored two. He was plus

52
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 2: six hundred to score once. I don't even I don't

53
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 2: even have the odds for him multi touchdown, but that

54
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: was just one. Yeah, I remember saying this is disgusting,

55
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 2: This is disgusting, but yeah, I gotta go there. There

56
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 2: was nothing really, nothing really else to do on that

57
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 2: on that one in terms of until Mason was ruled in.

58
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 2: But that was you know, that was wait trunk. But

59
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: let's try to keep it going. So we'll kind of

60
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: alternate here giving out our favorite cheaper guys go through

61
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 2: each game. We'll start with Thursday Night Football. We have

62
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills going to Miami to take on the Dolphins.

63
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 2: Dolphins favored by two of the total is forty nine.

64
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 2: Who do you like?

65
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: I'm going with Mac Hollins at sixteen hundred dollars, and

66
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: we finally got our first week of seeing how this

67
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: like Bill's wide receiver room and kind of shake itself out.

68
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: And I kind of had a sneaky suspicion that Hollins

69
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: could like take over the Gay Davis role completely, and

70
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: that seemed to be the case in week one. He

71
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: ran around on sixty seven percent of Josh Allen's dropbacks,

72
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: cut two balls for twenty five yards and a touchdown,

73
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: which is kind of a Gay Davis type of line

74
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: from being on it. But you know, I think out

75
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: of these these guys, Mvs is the other guy I

76
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: thought would compete for the game Davis role, and he

77
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: still can. But I think Hallins is the guy where

78
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: if Josh Allen's gonna throw the ball downfield, I think

79
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: Hallins is the most likely guy to be the target.

80
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: And there was a ton of wind in Buffalo in

81
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: that Cardinals game, so probably limited. You know, Josh Allen's

82
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: yolo nature when it comes to just chucking the ball downfield.

83
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: Should have much better weather here in Miami on Thursday

84
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: night football, so I think we could see a deep

85
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: shot to Matt Collins here. Plus you know, he is

86
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: a decent red zone target. He's the kind of guy

87
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: that just always over at cheese. It seems like wherever

88
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: he goes. So this is a perfect situation, I think

89
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: for him in Buffalo after both Diggs and Gave Davis left,

90
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: plus Jalen Ramsey was, you know, limited with that hamstring injury.

91
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: This is a short week, so I don't know if

92
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 1: he's going to be even close to one hundred percent

93
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: here he got beat by Brian Thomas junior. Brian Thomas

94
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: Junior should have scored two touchdowns. Ramsey decided just I'm

95
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: going to tackle him instead of letting him touch the touchdown. So, uh,

96
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: you know, mccollins might draw some Ramsey, but again, Ramsey's

97
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: not one hundred percent not worried about that. I think

98
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,480
Speaker 1: his rostership might be pretty high, to be honest, at

99
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: sixteen hundred, but I don't care. I think that that

100
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 1: upside is worth it, even if he is a bit shocky.

101
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna go with mc collins here for Thursday

102
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: night football.

103
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think now the time you want to

104
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 2: invest in mccollins. I mean, that sounds ridiculous because you,

105
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 2: I mean rarely ever want to invest in mc collins.

106
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: Let's be honest, but Joe Brady's man crush, Curtis Samuel

107
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 2: is lurking. And this is a short week, so Samuel

108
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,239
Speaker 2: only ran around on what like thirteen percent of Allen's dropback.

109
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 2: I think eventually you're gonna have Kean, Coleman, Takir and

110
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 2: Samuel as the top three. But for right now, just

111
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 2: because you know, Hollins played better in camp, Samuel missed

112
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 2: some time. This is still it's not a new like

113
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 2: new offensive coordinator for Samuel, but still going to a

114
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 2: new offense, new quarterback, So I think, and you know,

115
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: Howinds is a better blocker and they love to run

116
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 2: it now in Buffalo, that's their new thing. You know,

117
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 2: they handed James Cook a ton, So I think this

118
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 2: is the time. But eventually I am expecting Howinds to

119
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 2: settle in as like the jack of all trades, number four,

120
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 2: guy who can play you know, the X or the

121
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 2: Z kind of like so he could kind of take snaps,

122
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: you know, if Coman needs a breather or if you know,

123
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 2: if they want a deep shot, or if they need

124
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: a better blocker for Samuel. But for right now, it's

125
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 2: clear that Samuel is not one hundred percent and he's

126
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 2: just not worked his way back into this offense. So

127
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 2: I like the howinds call for right now and mvs.

128
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 2: I mean, he's he's he's always there. But the fact

129
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 2: that he's still the kind of like the number five

130
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: guy five ish like, that's that's, that's that's concerning. All right,

131
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 2: Let's jump over to the main slate. Niners at Vikings,

132
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 2: Vikings six point dogs at home, the total forty five

133
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 2: and a half. I'm going back to the well with

134
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 2: Jalen Naylor. Only had one target and it was that

135
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 2: twenty one yard touchdown last week. Had a forty six

136
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 2: percent route rate. However, been very efficient in his career.

137
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 2: That's why I like this guy. You know, haven't seen

138
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: too much of him because he always gets hurt, but

139
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 2: when he's been on the field, eleven point five yards

140
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: per target, seventeen point six yards per catch, and a

141
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 2: touchdown on fifteen percent of his reception, so he makes

142
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: the most of his opportunities. Minnesota, remember won that game

143
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: twenty eight to six against the Giants, but now six

144
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 2: point underdogs, it could be a much more pass heavy game.

145
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 2: Script and Jordan Addison the number two receiver re injured

146
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 2: his ankle, so who knows how many snaps he can

147
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 2: last for if he goes at all, So you could

148
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 2: see Nailor end up playing you know, seventy eighty ninety

149
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 2: percent of the snaps if Addison is out, and even

150
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 2: if he's not, you know, just he might end up

151
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 2: overtaking Powells that clear cut number three receiver because it

152
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: was kind of like a split. Addison was like sixty

153
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 2: percent Nailer and Power right around fifty percent. So I

154
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: think the more Naylor plays better, the more snaps he'll

155
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 2: get because Powell is more of that. You know, they

156
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 2: want him to return kicks and stuff, punts and stuff

157
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 2: like that. So I think Naylor is kind of the

158
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 2: guy that they would love to just take that number

159
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 2: three role. But if Addison's out, he might have to

160
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: take that the number two role. I think he's a

161
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 2: better candidate than Powell for that.

162
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, good calling him last week, and I do think

163
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: Addison probably misses at least a week. Another encouraging sign

164
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: is is how good Sam Darnold looked. Granted it was

165
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: against the Giants, but he had the second highest PFF

166
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,719
Speaker 1: grade And I kind of said he might have like

167
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: a Geno Smith twenty twenty two season, and it's still

168
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: way too early to tell, but it's at least encouraging

169
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: for you know, like justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and jale

170
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: Nayler that Sam Darnhild himself look capable in this offense

171
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: in Week one that was certainly a question mark. So

172
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,959
Speaker 1: that's that's why I'm also, you know, much higher on

173
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: Naylor going forward.

174
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 2: I mean, if Alan Lazard could come from the dead

175
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 2: to catch two touchdowns against the Niners, then Jabb Naylor

176
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: should catch fifteen.

177
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: Very possible. Yeah.

178
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 2: Vegas at Baltimore, the Ravens are favored by nine and

179
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 2: a half. The total is just forty one and a half,

180
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 2: so this is expected to be a potential Ravens blowout

181
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 2: spot here. Who do you like?

182
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,559
Speaker 1: I'm going to go with Rashad Bateman at thirty nine

183
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,839
Speaker 1: hundred the Cats out of the bag. Obviously when it

184
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: comes to Isaiah likely getting more playing time in this

185
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: offense and being more productive as we saw in his

186
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: Week one eruption, but another trend that emerges that you know,

187
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: Bateman is the clear number two receiver in this offense.

188
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: Now with an eighty eight percent routes run rate in

189
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: Week one, had a decent two catch for fifty three

190
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,839
Speaker 1: yard game. He had a ridiculous AID dot of twenty

191
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: six point four yards downfield, which I think is important

192
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 1: because he's probably not going to see a ton of targets,

193
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 1: but if he is getting downfield targets, that's kind of

194
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 1: what we want when it comes to these flyers in DFS. So,

195
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: you know, I think if you know, the Raiders defense

196
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: is trying to lock up you know, Lamar and Henry

197
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: in the backfield, Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews, and now is

198
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: a likely you know, Bateman could get loose for a

199
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 1: couple big games here, potentially a touchdown to keep that

200
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: streak alive. So I think Bateman is sneaky at least

201
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: at thirty nine hundred here.

202
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, the fact that he's on the field all the time, now,

203
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 2: I mean he's probably a bust if for being onna.

204
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 2: That was interesting that they extended him.

205
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: But yeah, you know, it's been kind of hurt. Like, yeah,

206
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: from an excusive's point of view, he's constantly been hurt.

207
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: I think now's kind of the first time he's been

208
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: fully healthy but I agree he has not been living

209
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: up to his first round pedigree.

210
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's why he's cheap. So that's what we like. Yep,

211
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 2: Chargers at Panthers. Panthers are six and a half point

212
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 2: home dogs total thirty nine. I'm going to your guy, JK.

213
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 2: Davins fifty four hundred heading for one thirty five and one.

214
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 2: Last week, well, Gus was just eleven for twenty six

215
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 2: with no touchdowns. And on top of that, Dobbins a

216
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 2: fifty nine percent route rate, Gus seventeen percent. So, uh,

217
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 2: you know, passing game, Dobbins was already the lead guy,

218
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 2: and the way he ran the ball, I think he earned,

219
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 2: you know, probably better than just that fifty to fifty split.

220
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 2: In the run game as well. Seven point eight yards

221
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 2: after contact according to PFF for Dobbins, one point six

222
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 2: for Gus Edwards running behind the same exact offensive line,

223
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 2: and Carolina give up the second most fantasy points to

224
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 2: running backs in Week one thirty six touches one hundred

225
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 2: and seventy two yards two touchdowns to Saint running backs

226
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 2: and Brown their best interior lineman is now hurt, so

227
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 2: it might get even worse for Carolina on defense. So

228
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 2: going back to the well here with Dobbins, who as

229
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 2: long as he's one of these guys, as long as

230
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,319
Speaker 2: he's healthy, he probably will miss like eight games, but

231
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 2: this is one of them he's gonna play, so I

232
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 2: think you continue to target him.

233
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 1: He's so good to unhealthy. I'm rooting for him. I

234
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 1: hope he say he's healthy too. He's turning into like

235
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: Rashad Penny where we just got to enjoy the handful

236
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,959
Speaker 1: of games. He is healthy, and it's crazy how he

237
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: doesn't even look close to one hundred percent and how

238
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: efficient he is. Remember he came back from like that

239
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: knee injury and he scored an eighty hour touchdown where

240
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: you look like Darren Ravel like running of Zee like

241
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: he was banged up. So you know, it's like, man,

242
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: I love him. Hopefully he can stay healthy, not banking out,

243
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: but at least for now. Yeah, he's looking he's looking

244
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: pretty solid in this offense.

245
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's like, what is it? I think it's the

246
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,839
Speaker 2: is it the big people in Mario Kart that have

247
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 2: like the high speed but no acceleration like the Warrio

248
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 2: uh warrios.

249
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: I think like Donkey Kung or you big ones that

250
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: have like the high.

251
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 2: Speed, but they don't accelerate, right, Like, that's that's I

252
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 2: think I'm might I might have it backwards, but I think, yeah, yeah,

253
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 2: so because Domin's like he can, he has he still

254
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 2: has bursts, but it's like he don't don't expect him

255
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 2: he'll get don't expect him to get like a sixty

256
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 2: yard touchdown. He might get like a few thirty yard

257
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 2: runs because he can. He can bust through the hole,

258
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 2: just move. Once he gets like to top speed, he's

259
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 2: not really accelerating.

260
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: He's getting all high very fast.

261
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly exactly, So I think that's what he Achilles

262
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 2: kind of show him. But he's still he's still side

263
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 2: to side. He still knows where to go with the ball,

264
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 2: and you know he's familiar with this Greg Roman run

265
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: scheme as well. So all right, the Browns are going

266
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 2: to Jacksonville. Jacksonville favored by three. The total is forty two. Odio,

267
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 2: who do you like in this game?

268
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: Well, have to go with obligatory Thomas Junior recommendation here

269
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: at forty one hundred, at least until they have him

270
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: priced over five K. I'm going to recommend him every

271
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: single time had a great debut. Like I said, he

272
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,959
Speaker 1: was robbed of another touchdown for Jael and Ramsey just

273
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: basically tackled him instead of letting him catch the touchdown.

274
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 1: And you know, the Jags kind of you did mention

275
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 1: that they were running way more than I thought, but

276
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: they did kind of take their foot off the gas

277
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: a bit when they had two score lead on Miami,

278
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: so they just weren't throwing that much. And you know,

279
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: the Browns defense look vulnerable at home against Cowboys. Now

280
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: they're on the road where they struggled last year, so

281
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be too scared away from the matchup. So

282
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: love Brian Thomas Junior again here, but I think when

283
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: it comes to like a real flyer here, I think

284
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: Jordan Atkins is certainly worth a look at three K,

285
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: especially given the tight end situation around the league. But

286
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: he literally is the next man up with David Joku out.

287
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: They they did not have another tight end on their

288
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 1: active roster last week. They're kind of scrambling to figure

289
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: out who his backup will be this week. But you

290
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: know he's flashed at times in the past, back when

291
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson was good on the Texans. That's when Akins

292
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: was pretty good, had some useful games. Unfortunately, I think

293
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 1: that version of Watson is no longer with us. But

294
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: I still think Akins is worth a flyer at three K.

295
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 1: Just give him the title Landscape and I'm curious, like,

296
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: do you think he's gonna be highly rostered at that

297
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: or people just kind of over the Browns offense and

298
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 1: his rostership will be pretty low here. Yeah.

299
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 2: No, I don't think anyone is playing good naked Okay, perfect, Okay,

300
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 2: So would be wrong maybe if we because we just

301
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 2: talked about all these guys who've scored touchdowns that we

302
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 2: called out last week. But I don't think we're moving

303
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 2: this that like it's who wants to play Jordan naked?

304
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 2: Like we don't.

305
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 1: We don't.

306
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 2: Even the Browns essentially don't care about the tight end position.

307
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 2: That's why they didn't even have a third one on

308
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 2: a roster. And of course they're starting tight end gets

309
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 2: hurt in week one when they don't have a third

310
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 2: active tight end like come on, come on, guys, like

311
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 2: yeah he does that. Yeah, so there is krying to

312
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 2: shoehorn like at this point, you know, it's crazy. Jordan

313
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 2: nakeds is probably a better tight end than Deshaun Watson

314
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 2: is quarterback.

315
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's about saying I'm actually play I'm rooting

316
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: for an in game benching and Jamis Winston to come

317
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: in and just revive this entire offense. So that's the

318
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: I d TR the backup.

319
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 2: Uh didn't they didn't. That was that what they said

320
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 2: in the preseason.

321
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of a toss up. I think

322
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: that they were that.

323
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: D t R and then they said they were going

324
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 2: to look to trade both of them, So I don't know,

325
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 2: I don't know, but either way, yeah, we Deshaun Watson

326
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 2: upgrade over right now, you're right? Yeah, uh but yeah,

327
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 2: I mean Acobs might play every single snap because they

328
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 2: still don't have another tight end. If the joke who sits,

329
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 2: so they got to sign somebody or so.

330
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: He's like k he's like three K K Houghton, Yeah, yeah, exactly.

331
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 2: Speaking of tight ends, New Orleans at Dallas. Dallas favored

332
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 2: by six and a half to total forty five and

333
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 2: a half. A. Taysom Hill is still under four K

334
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 2: five Carrieslast week, an end zone target barely missed him

335
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 2: on an end zone target, so uh, he has still

336
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 2: has upside. This is a uh you know, coming off

337
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 2: a week where he didn't blow up. So I always

338
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 2: feel I always feel better about Taysom coming off those weeks,

339
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 2: you know.

340
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:17,160
Speaker 1: Yea.

341
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 2: And more importantly, perhaps more importantly, Foster Moreau is in

342
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,400
Speaker 2: the concussion protocol. Foster Moro called a touchdown and out

343
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:29,360
Speaker 2: snapped or out routed. Uh Juwan Johnson. I haven't looked

344
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 2: at the actual snaps on run plays, but uh yeah,

345
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 2: so Foster Moreau is a leading tight end in terms

346
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 2: of routes run for the Saints last week. Now he's

347
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,679
Speaker 2: in the concussion protocol. So you'll see a bump for Johnson,

348
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 2: You'll see a bump for Hill, but you know, five

349
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 2: carries if he and an end zone target. If you

350
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 2: can add maybe a couple more, you know, more targets

351
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,239
Speaker 2: to those, or just break one running the ball. Uh,

352
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 2: you're in business here. So always like Taysom, h is

353
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 2: an upside play in dfs, these are long drafts have

354

365
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 2: a half are the Jets favorite on the road. The

366
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,400
Speaker 2: total is forty one. Who do you hike in this one?

367
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 2: Short weeks for the Jets?

368
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: Do I have to take somebody from this game? Okay, fine,

369
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: we'll go with Taja Spears at five k U. You know,

370
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: week one, Tony Pollard handled most of the early down

371
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: work and Spears handle most of the passing down work.

372
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: So just given the Titans led for most of the game,

373
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: that was that was a better game script for Pollard.

374
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 1: But you know, head coach Brian Callahan set after the

375
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: game he wants the touches to be more even, which

376
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: is great news for Spears, So I think that they're

377
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 1: going to give him more early down work here and

378
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 1: you know, keep up the passing down role. So this

379
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 1: is you know, a potential trailing game script where I

380
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: think this could be set up better for Spears. Don't

381
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: love it, but again, if you're going to go somebody

382
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: from this game, I think Spears is a decent flyer

383
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 1: at five K since I think he'll he'll bounce back

384
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: here with a good week two.

385
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 2: Why don't coaches always say that stuff at like the

386
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 2: wrong time, like Poward's coming off a great debut, you know,

387
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 2: fifteen carries eight sixteen carries at eight two yards and

388
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 2: a touchdown average over five yards of carries, Like, oh yeah,

389
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,439
Speaker 2: I want I want the other guy to get more touches.

390
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 2: Why you can at least way too? He had like

391
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 2: a meh game to true, you know what I mean?

392
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: Like yes, because then then you'd be kind of like

393
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: slamming polar I guess you kind of want to make

394
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:09,360
Speaker 1: it be more optimistic. Yeah, I like it, Yeah right, yeah,

395
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 1: you know what I mean.

396
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 2: That's a fair point. It's just this is weird because

397
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 2: I feel like that happens a lot. It's like, oh, yeah,

398
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 2: the guy who just did good, we don't want him

399
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 2: to play as much it's like, yeah.

400
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 1: He yeah, and he wasn't saying in a way that

401
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: was kind of shitting unpollared, uh, the best of Shanahan

402
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: sort of throwing Jordan Mason under the best saying I

403
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 1: didn't tell him. I didn't tell him that Friday night,

404
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 1: which you know, he's probably full of shit. But I

405
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: think Callan's is being nice, So just going ignoring his

406
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,439
Speaker 1: coach speak, just based on the usage Spears was handling

407
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: the passing network, This is kind of how I expected it.

408
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: So again, this is a backfield. I think when the

409
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,640
Speaker 1: Titans are in a more trailing game, script Spears would

410
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 1: you know, get a little of a boost. But it's

411
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 1: nice knowing that the coach is nice and wants to

412
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: get more touches.

413
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 2: You see the will Webs kneel down last week, you

414
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 2: mean when.

415
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: He when he threw it and he went, my god,

416
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: he just now he's just like, ah, chasing the guy. Yeah,

417
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 1: yeah he was. I think we all we're all doing that.

418
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, that was man.

419
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: He had. He had a few other just potentially disastrous

420
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: plays he lucked out on.

421
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that one he did not luck out on, and

422
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 2: he missed Colvin Realley for two touchdowns. Easy touchdown.

423
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a disaster, both quarterbacks.

424
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 2: Disaster what uh okay, Pitts Speaking of disastrous quarterbacks, Pittsburgh

425
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 2: got Denver. Denver is a three point underdog at home

426
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 2: to totally thirty six and a half. And this isn't

427
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 2: a season where the kickoff is the kickoff is adding

428
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 2: like another point, you know, because you know a lot

429
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 2: of touchbacks coming out to the thirty and or or returns,

430
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 2: so the fact thirty six and a half is really

431
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 2: like a thirty five and a half. But I can't

432
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 2: I can't say it's it's unwarranted mcgloughlin. I'm going with

433
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 2: him in this one forty five hundred. Now he was

434
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 2: outstapped by Javonte Williams fifty two to thirty five percent,

435
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 2: So there is the floor is still low, especially if

436
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 2: Denver actually gets their shit together and leads for some

437
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 2: of this game, which you could see Pittsburgh laying an

438
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 2: egg after pulling an upset on the road. But he

439
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 2: did out touch Davonte fifteen to nine. And you know,

440
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 2: I think you mentioned on the waiver pod that came

441
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 2: close to actually getting yardage on a couple of receptions

442
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,360
Speaker 2: but he finished with what five catches for a yard

443
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 2: or something like that. So yeah, but the fact that he,

444
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 2: you know, they were making a concerted effort to get

445
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 2: him touches, that's what we kind of thought that was

446
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 2: gonna happen. Like he was the guy, you know, heading

447
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 2: into the year where you said, Okay, last year, Davonte

448
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 2: kind of wore down, wasn't quite as efficient. Maybe the

449
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 2: injury affected him. You know, Davonte was okay in the

450
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 2: first game, didn't looked great, didn't look terrible, But you know,

451
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 2: Laughlin is a guy looks like they're gonna try to

452
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 2: get more more touches too, So uh, you know, I

453
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 2: don't know if the fifteen to sixth touch age will hold,

454
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 2: but could be somewhere around fifty to fifty sixty forty.

455
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 2: Should should be able to get to double digits this

456
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 2: week in most weeks if that, if the snap rates hold.

457
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 2: So estimate though is a wild card. But the fact

458
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 2: that estimate is not playing much on pass downs, and

459
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 2: I think he had like a he's had a couple

460
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,479
Speaker 2: of just terrible pass plays and fumbles and just all

461
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,479
Speaker 2: kinds of mishaps. So I think McLoughlin will hold off, uh,

462
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 2: you know, or hold his you know, ten tennis touch

463
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 2: plus projection for at least a few more weeks until

464
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 2: he unless he just keeps going five catches for one yard,

465
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,880
Speaker 2: then as welcome pretty quick. But it's only week two,

466
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 2: so we're gonna bet on usage.

467
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 1: And yeah no, I had over thirty and a half

468
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: rushing and receiving ards, so you better freaking believe McLachlan's

469
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: going off this week. And I'm kind of sad that

470
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: we we we probably won't see a Russell Wilson revenge

471
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: game here. Oh I means some ridiculous you know silin

472
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: that you'll point out, but just signed.

473
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 2: On full pads, just looking angry at hell with the

474
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 2: team up. I'm trying to think who else is I'm

475
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 2: trying to who who's the last guy that was like

476
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 2: mad when his team won? There was somebody was it?

477
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 1: Is?

478
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 2: It? Is it Deontay Johnson?

479
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: I feel like it was Steeler or Clay Max Jones

480
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: when Bailey Zappie came in.

481
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 2: I mean, mac Jones had no reason to ever be

482
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 2: happy the way he played the last year, so I

483
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 2: give him a past. But man, yeah, let's move on

484
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 2: another little total game Seattle at New England. New England

485
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 2: three and a half point underdogs at home. The total

486
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 2: thirty eight in this one a whole a whopping thirty eight.

487
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: Who do you like? I'm gonna go with no offense.

488
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 1: Thirty six hundred had a healthy seventy one percent routes

489
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 1: run rate in Week one, might have actually been eased

490
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: into action. He was coming back from a tow injury.

491
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: So he's a guy that I think a clear an

492
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 1: eighty percent routes run rate as soon as this week.

493
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: After all, he has his tight end room all to

494
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 1: himself now with Will Disley and Kolby Parkinson on new teams.

495
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 1: So I was pretty high on fans heading in the season.

496
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 1: I think, you know, it's going to take him a

497
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: couple weeks to get over this tow injury. But like

498
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 1: his upside here, he's still you know, very talented past

499
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: catching tight end. So if if he gets the you know,

500
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: the playing time and then you know, more targets going forward,

501
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: I think he could pop. And again, just the tight

502
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: end position being so volatile, I think it's worth taking

503
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 1: flyers on these low run guys that maybe didn't pop

504
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 1: week one. So you know, I like taking no offense

505
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 1: at thirty six hundred here.

506
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, he should have that tight end like he should

507
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 2: be that queer queer number one tight ending. I think

508
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,479
Speaker 2: he was a little banged up heading into the last week,

509
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 2: so he should be healthier going forward as well. Giants

510
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 2: at Washington, Washington favored by one and a half of

511
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 2: total forty four. This is where I'm going with a quarterback,

512
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones. Just fifty three hundred. Washington allowed Baker Mayfield

513
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 2: to compe eighty percent of his passes for nine point

514
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,159
Speaker 2: six yards an attempt and allowed the second most fantasy

515
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 2: points to the position last week. Daniel Jones. I've talked

516
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 2: about this another shows, but much better on the road

517
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 2: for some reason. Six point nine yards in attempt, thirty

518
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 2: five touchdowns, fourteen picks at home five point eight yards

519
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 2: an attempt, twenty seven touchdowns, twenty eight picks, and he's

520
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 2: averaged about six to eight rushing attempts per game under

521
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 2: Brian Dable and has scored a rushing touchdown in about

522
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 2: a third of his game. So, just like Jayden Daniels

523
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 2: hit with the anytime touchdown last week, Jones might be

524
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 2: a good bet to get in the end zone this week,

525
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 2: because you know the way he looked as a passer

526
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 2: even against his defense, maybe they still designed a few

527
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 2: runs for him. And Slayton Is is in the concussion protocol,

528
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 2: so if Jaalin Hyatt is on the field, that just

529
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 2: makes it more likely that one lest guy is open.

530
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:15,360
Speaker 2: So yeah, maybe more rushing for scrambling for Jones this week?

531
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 2: All right? Tampa at Detroit Detroit seven point favorite, the

532
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 2: total fifty one and a half in that one. Who

533
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 2: do you like there?

534
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: I think there's a there's a couple receivers with just

535
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: really high ceilings in this game. So I think on

536
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: the Lions side, you know, Jamis and Williams at fifty

537
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: three hundred might be kind of obvious coming off his

538
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: career best game. But as you mentioned, the you know

539
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 1: buck secondary is all banged up, so he could actually

540
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: have an encore game here, another big game. If the

541
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: Lions exploit the buck secondary, it's just gonna be tough

542
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: for teams to guard. Iman Ross, Saint Brown, Sam Laporta,

543
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: worry about Jamiir Gibbs or Dave Montgomery and oh Jamison Williams.

544
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: So I just love his upside here worth you know,

545
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: fiftieth round. Even if he's pretty chalky, he just has

546
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: a massive ceiling here on the other side, going with

547
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: rookie Jalen McMillan of the Bucks at thirty six hundred,

548
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 1: he's other guy that could be fairly chalky. He did

549
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: have a good week one, but you know he's operating

550
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 1: as a clear number three wide receiver in this offense

551
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,120
Speaker 1: over Trey Palmer. You know, Kay Dowton's out there running

552
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: wind sprints, So there could absolutely be three viable receivers

553
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: in this offense, especially against you know, more of a

554
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 1: pass funnel defense in the Lions. I don't think Tampay

555
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: is going to be moving the ball much on the ground,

556
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: So you know, McMillan had an eighty eight percent routes

557
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: run rate, only saw three targets, but they were downfield.

558
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: He had an a DOT of seventeen point seven. So again,

559
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: if if we're banking on sort of low volume, we

560
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: do want that high upside downfield targets, which he has.

561
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 1: But again, he's coming off a good game. He's thirty

562
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: six hundred, so his ownership will be healthy here, but

563
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: I still think he is worth it in GVP's just

564
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: to get his upside.

565
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's nice achieve you can stack him with Mayfield

566
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 2: and maybe like either Evans or Godwin. So there's still

567
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 2: ways a kind of different, you know, like make it

568
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 2: a little more, you know, Wess Chalky if you kind

569
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 2: of mix up the stacks rams at the Cardinals, Cardinals

570
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 2: favored by one and a half the total forty nine

571
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 2: and a half. A couple of guys I like hear.

572
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 2: Kobe Parkinson at thirty one hundred. He was a tight

573
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 2: end but seven last week on just five targets, caught

574
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 2: four for forty seven, but more importantly at eighty two

575
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 2: percent route rate, and now Pooka Nakua is out, so

576
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 2: his target rate could increase. And then Tyler Johnson at

577
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 2: thirty three hundred he may very well be a one

578
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 2: for one replacement for Poka Nakua. He was last week

579
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 2: nicoua twenty nine percent route rate and Johnson the other

580
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 2: sixty five percent route rate, So you know, about close

581
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 2: adds up close to one hundred. He was the guy

582
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 2: that pretty much played once Kuka went down. Targeted on

583
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 2: twenty one percent of his routes, caught five for seventy

584
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 2: nine on seven targets, and you know, DeMarcus Robinson's all

585
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 2: kind of an obvious one as well. But I think

586
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 2: there's a chance Johnson could be this year's DeMarcus Robinson

587
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 2: because you know, you put up five for seventy nine

588
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 2: and there was some, you know, some buzz about Johnson

589
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 2: like earlier in his career with Tampa Bay and then

590
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 2: he kind of fell off the mat for a while.

591
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 2: But the fact that he, you know, like Jordan Winnington,

592
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 2: had a lot of buzz in preseason too to at well,

593
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 2: was a very productive member of the team for like

594
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 2: what the first half of last year as well. So

595
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 2: the fact that Johnson played over both of them once

596
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 2: Puka went down tells you Number one, he's either the

597
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 2: one for one replacement or Number two, he's just having

598
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 2: a really good camp and they really like him and

599
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 2: he's just that number four wide receiver either way. So

600
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 2: either way, I think it's spelled. It bodes well for Johnson,

601
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 2: especially because he was productive once he came in the game.

602
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 2: So like him as well as Parkinson in this one.

603
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,520

631
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 2: field goal to total around forty one. Who do you

632
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 2: like in this one? Remember my week, Willis is going

633
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 2: to make the start at quarterback for Green Bay for

634
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 2: Jordan Love, and the coach looks like one of their

635
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 2: starting quarters, Juju Brentz is going to be out for

636
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 2: the foreseeable future. But I don't know if that matters

637
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 2: with Willis.

638
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, Willis. For now, we're still on Josh Dobbs watch.

639
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: But I'm going to go with another rookie wide receiver

640
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: here in Ady Mitchell at four K coming off a

641
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: really bad stat line. I'll say it that way, one

642
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: catch for two yards on five targets, but you know

643
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: he he ran around on seventy five of Richardson's drop back.

644
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 1: So assuming that Josh Downs remains out this week. You

645
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 1: know this play is tentative on that I think Mitchell's

646
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: gonna see a ton of playing time again. And it

647
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 1: was just unfortunate that, you know, Richardson had a handful

648
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: of great throws and a handful of bathrows. His good

649
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 1: throws went to Alec Pearce and Ashton Doolan. His bath

650
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 1: throws unfortunately went to Mitchell because Mitchell was I would

651
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: say wide open on a couple of them where Mitchell

652
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: could have had a absolutely massive game if Richardson didn't

653
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: over throw him. So again, it was just kind of

654
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: bath luck for Mitchell. He looked great, but that's just

655
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 1: the Anthony Richardson experience. So I think I think it's

656
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 1: a good time to buy low on Mitchell after the

657
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 1: the one catch two yard game next week. He could

658
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:17,399
Speaker 1: easily be the one that gets the errant accurate throw

659
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 1: by Richardson. So I think that's a great spot to

660
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: take Mitchell. I do take your point that, like I

661
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 1: think the Colts can probably just lean on the run

662
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 1: here and not like air it out in order to

663
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: beat the Packers. But again, like Richardson is going to

664
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 1: have a couple of deep balls here and hopefully this

665
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: time Mitchell hauls them in. So again I think this

666
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,320
Speaker 1: is a great Bilo spot for Mitchell.

667
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Josh Down still still looking at iffy there,

668
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 2: so yeah, I might might see another week of Mitchell starting.

669
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 2: He played that sevent route role that Downs is usually

670
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 2: in with Pierce on the outside. Bengals at the Chief's

671
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,320
Speaker 2: Chiefs favored by six the total forty seven and a

672
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 2: half Hana Mario Kart efforts earlier, So it's only right

673
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 2: I go with Yoshi here. Andre Yosavash thirty nine hundred,

674
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 2: one hundred percent route rate in week one. T Higgins

675
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 2: doubtful again, Kansas City's likely to put up more than

676
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 2: the sixteen points that New England did. And you know,

677
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,919
Speaker 2: I think after like the Tanner Hudson disaster and maybe

678
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 2: more targets start going to the Josavash Darane Burton still

679
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 2: doesn't look like a factor in the offense. I think

680
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 2: it only ran one route Trenton Irwin. It was the

681
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 2: number three receiver. So that's just good for Yosevash because

682
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 2: I think it's it's Mark Chase number one. And then

683
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 2: Joseavash looks like he's gonna be the number two guy

684
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 2: one hundred percent route rate. Mika Sicki almost caught a touchdown,

685
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 2: but he was only around forty five percent, So it's Yosebash.

686
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 2: As long as Higgins is out, he's the qlear number

687
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 2: two guy in terms of you know routes and therefore

688
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 2: you know target expectation in this offense and should be

689
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 2: a comp like even though Cincinnati trailed for a bunch

690
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 2: in that New England game, like this is one where

691
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 2: the Chiefs they were great on offense. Now it's a

692
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 2: long week, they could end up putting up you know,

693
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 2: thirty plus so and Joe Burrow should be a little

694
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 2: less rusty this week. So I think Josebash is still

695
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 2: a bye here for Cincinnati.

696
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: UH.

697
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 2: Sunday Night football Chicago at Houston. So you got the

698
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,319
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year favorite at quarterback for this year

699
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 2: and the last year's Rookie of the year c J.

700
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 2: Stroud for Texans. On the other side came Williams on

701
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,800
Speaker 2: the road six and a half point doug the total

702
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 2: forty six? Who do you like on Sunday Night football?

703
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 1: Is UH still have a favorite for Rookie of Year?

704
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 2: A good question? I mean Dan's before. Yeah, it's kind

705
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,919
Speaker 2: of got have to be a lot closer now. Yeah,

706
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 2: Daniel's still yeah, yeah, but Daniels didn't do anything like you,

707
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 2: didn't make a massive mistake even though he lost in

708
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 2: Williams won. But the fact that Williams won, I think

709
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 2: is probably I think we would keep him in.

710
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

711
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, well at least one.

712
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 1: More week plus one sixty Daniel's is like three to one.

713
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, Giants and Williams loses, I think it will.

714
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 1: Even Marvin Harrison Junior had a bad game. Xavier Worthy

715
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: probably had the biggest leap in the market.

716
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, he's a threat, especially if these came backs.

717
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 2: I'll just play like shit exactly.

718
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 1: Well anyways, Yeah, so Gerald Everett is my darts are

719
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 1: on this game. I'm going tight end heavy this week.

720
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: I'm basically the Bears this week. But yeah, like Gerald Everett,

721
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,360
Speaker 1: I was kind of worried he would kind of split

722
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: time with Cole Comet. Nope, it was a sixty five

723
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: thirty five split just in terms of routes round rate.

724
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: So it's pretty clear, at least for now, Gerald Everett

725
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: is the lead pass catching tight end in this offense.

726
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: So with Romo Dunsa potentially missing this week just could

727
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: create more targets for Everett and others. And this is

728
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: a game where I think the Bears are gonna have

729
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 1: to throw a ton in order to keep up with

730
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: the Texans. And you know, Everett himself might be overlooked.

731
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 1: He had one catch for minus two yards last week,

732
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: so people not diving into the underlying usage like us

733
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: probably won't catch this. So I think that his his

734
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 1: ownership bule will be low enough to absolutely fire away

735
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:20,919
Speaker 1: in the showdown site.

736
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 2: Hopefully the coaches don't dive into the underlying usage. You'd

737
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 2: be like, oh, man, why do we bene co command?

738
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 1: Yeah?

739
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 2: Why did we bench the better tight end on our team?

740
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,839
Speaker 2: But yeah, no, you're right, it's until proven otherwise, Joe,

741
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 2: what Everett is the T one in Chicago, which is

742
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 2: something that you know, we kind of saw glimpses of

743
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 2: in preseason. We didn't know what to think, and it

744
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 2: turned out to be true and we won. All right,

745
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 2: let's close it out with Monday night football. Falcons at

746
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 2: the Eagles. Eagles favored by six and a half. The

747
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 2: total was forty seven. I don't know if I can

748
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 2: outdo the Allen Lizard call, you can go six or

749
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 2: eighty nine or two touchdowns, but I'm gonna try Ray

750
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 2: Ray McLoud, my guy under half a yard, I've hit it.

751
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,840
Speaker 2: I think I hit his prop couple one of my

752
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 2: favorite profits of all time in the playoffs, I think

753
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago. But I like him in

754
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 2: this spot, and crazy enough, he led the Falcons in

755
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 2: all receiving categories in Week one. Six targets for catches

756
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 2: fifty two yards except touchdowns, I should say because Coyle

757
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 2: Pits got touch it. But six catches yards, targets catches yards,

758
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 2: targets per route thirty two. Target market share twenty seven percent,

759
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 2: air yard market share forty six percent Ray Ray McCloud.

760
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's just kind of like Aaron Lazard. It's ugly,

761
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 2: but he's gonna be out there. They play a ton

762
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 2: of one to one personnel, so and this could be

763
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 2: a trailing game script because Kirk Cousins can't move so

764
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 2: at some point, yeah, they were probably at all points.

765
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 2: He's gonna be getting the ball out quick and that

766
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,800
Speaker 2: that benefits a guy like Ray Ray McLoud, which is

767
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 2: but I did not expect forty six percent air yard

768
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,439
Speaker 2: mark to share a team leading like that is That's

769
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 2: like it's like Falcons has got to be saying like, yo,

770
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 2: we just we're supposed to Like we just had this

771
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 2: guy Arthur Smith who wasn't targeting our best guys, and

772
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 2: now you know, we finally got like Pitts running around

773
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:21,919
Speaker 2: one hundred percent of the time lending all these guys

774
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 2: and now somehow Ray Ray mcclownder is our air yard leader.

775
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 2: Like what it's like, I just can't win.

776
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's clear that Cousins was just like freaking

777
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:35,800
Speaker 1: out want to get rid of it. Just knew that

778
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: Ray Ray was probably going to be single coverage or

779
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 1: something like that, so that that trend should hold. Uh

780
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 1: do you think Michael Pennix Junior is a flyer in

781
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: this game too? In a Showdown Slate, Yeah, yeah I do.

782
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 2: Because Number one, I think you could have like a

783
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,360
Speaker 2: just a massive blowout by Philly because I mentioned on

784
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 2: another pod, I just think this Falcon offense is I

785
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:57,960
Speaker 2: would have going to be easy to prepare for because

786
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 2: you know Cousin's going to be in a shotgun. You know,

787
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 2: he can't really move around. You could just pressure him

788
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,320
Speaker 2: and they tend to play a ton of one one personnel,

789
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 2: So it's just like unless they completely just say hey

790
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 2: f it and just like go against tendency. But this

791
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,800
Speaker 2: is kind of what's been their offense. So and like

792
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 2: the fact that your cousins isn't getting preseason works, I'm

793
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 2: assuming like all they all he all of his practice

794
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 2: has been in shotgun with one one personnel, so uh,

795
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 2: you know, if you start bringing in heavy personnel, then

796
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 2: you want to under center. But so it's kind of like, yeah,

797
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,839
Speaker 2: it's it's it's just tough. And and the Egos had

798
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 2: a I mean, I know they were in Brazil, so

799
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 2: but they still it's still a long, you know, week

800
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 2: of preparation because they didn't play since Friday. So yeah,

801
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 2: I think they you have the blowout risk, and you

802
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 2: just have the cousins with the injury risk, and the

803
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 2: cousin's just playing terrible and maybe you just gotta get

804
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 2: him out of the game. Like it's just it's just

805
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 2: a lot of ways kind of skuld Like he's definitely

806
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 2: a dark throw and in large GVP, not not in

807
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 2: like a like a hundred man or something like that,

808
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 2: but in like the large ones. Yeah, I think definitely

809
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,759
Speaker 2: take a couple of shots in the multi entry. Yeah.

810
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: Looking at Fantasy Points data, Ray Ray McCleod led the

811
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:13,839
Speaker 1: falcons and first read percentage at twenty nine percent. So yeah, yeah,

812
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: because it's trying to get rid of it quick and

813
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,799
