Speaker 1: you gentlemen doing this fine morning? Doing pretty good? Uh? Boy?

6
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill just stunk it up last night, didn't he?

7
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 1: He did not play if you get a high level,

8
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: at least the first half. First, I've told me before

9
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: the game he was gonna throw for three yards everything great,

10
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: I'll take it. Sure, no touchdowns to yeah, yeah, he

11
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: looked um. So we're gonna get to this Thursday night

12
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:45,599
Speaker 1: game and just a moment here, but we got top

13
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 1: headlines including of course Dez Bryant and Ben A. Roethlisberger.

14
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 1: But we'll talk about you know, we talk about good

15
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: and bad matchups all the time, but hardly ever do

16
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: we actually call out what the Fantasy points against have

17
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: been telling us here. And we'll get into that a

18
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: little bit here. I know a lot of people listening

19
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: don't necessarily dig into the research and say I need

20
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: to look up f p A. But that's why we're here,

21
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: all right, so we'll do that and uh, and you know,

22
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,119
Speaker 1: I feel like we haven't done enough deep Waiver wire

23
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: targets either. So Alex Gellhard writes a tremendous an awesome

24
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 1: column every single week. Tremendous, Yes, tremendous and awesome, tremendously awesome.

25
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: It's called it's it's called deep Dive. You can check

26
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: it out at NFL dot com slash deep dive. And

27
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: he basically looks at deep Waiver Wire targets and he's

28
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: gonna be breaking down some of his favorite deep dive guys.

29
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 1: Uh this week, and of course we get to daily taps.

30
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: But let's start the show off by reacting. I guess

31
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 1: to this Thursday night football game. We have not been

32
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: treated to some good primetime games here. Um, it's been

33
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks in a row. Now it's getting

34
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: kind of old. I'm not gonna lie of you here.

35
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it's the it's you know, the vagaries of

36
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: Thursday night. You're taking guys who are used to doing

37
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: certain roots in a certain schedule, and then you're throwing

38
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: them off that schedule and asking him to play another game. Um.

39
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: So I'm Brady's sure looks like he was on schedule. Well,

40
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,399
Speaker 1: he's not affected by much. I don't know if they're

41
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: going to lose a game. And Dion I started him

42
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: in a league, actually started him in our experts league,

43
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: and uh, but I put him in because I didn't

44
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: really have anybody else. I mean, I was looking on

45
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: the waiver wire. I'm like, I guess it's like a

46
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: good at THEO Riddick. And then the moment I heard

47
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 1: Dean Lewis was playing, I'm like, is he like in

48
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 1: every week now? Because I feel like, yes, I don't.

49
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: I don't even think there's any question. It's funny when

50
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: I get questions on Twitter about Dion Lewis, I'm like, Hey,

51
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: is it should I play Dion Lewis or yes? Deon Lois? So?

52
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 1: Is Deon Lewis like the new Is he like the

53
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: East Coast Danny Woodhead? Or is Danny Woodhead the West Coast? No? No, no,

54
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: Danny woodad was first? He was first? Alight, you are correct,

55
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: But how about the roastburger? Dean Lewis served that guy

56
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: on that one catch on the sideline game a little

57
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: shake to the inside and then his head and shoulder

58
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 1: fake that's what would get him. Oh my god, good,

59
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: how could he like not make the Browns. I don't get.

60
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't get this is the same dude,

61
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: or is it just Browns? I know, but if they

62
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: were good at making personnel decisions, we wouldn't be every

63
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: team in the National Football League. Every player, uh is

64
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: going to be exponentially better if you play for the Patriot.

65
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: Well is that it? It is because of one simple reason,

66
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: and for a long time, it's the same reason why

67
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: any rando could go play with Peyton Manning and play Well,

68
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: they're on that system too, But yeah, obviously anymore. But no,

69
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: I mean Tom Brady makes everybody a little bit better.

70
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: You gotta guard against that. And you know they've they've

71
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: got a great system though. Yeah, Dean Lewis is a

72
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: good player, but I mean, come on, Alex, I mean

73
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: you even you have to admit if he played for

74
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,119
Speaker 1: if he did play for the Browns, we're not We're

75
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: not quite good. I don't know if we're quite Jock

76
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: and Dion Lewis the way we are might not being

77
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: every week starter, but he flex consideration because that their

78
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: offense just want to be as good. But Diana is good. Man.

79
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: It's not like it's not like Tom Brady threw him

80
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: a perfect pass to to roast those guys on the

81
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: sideline and things like that. But nine first half catches.

82
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if any offense would allow for that.

83
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson's getting a lot of Look, I mean, what

84
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: it is about the Patriots, and you know, I've heard

85
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: this a lot, and it's absolutely true, is that they

86
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: can play any style of football right now with the

87
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: guys they have, and they don't, you know, they don't

88
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: have a lot of guys. And it's gonna be interesting

89
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: from this era. You know, when when Brady and Belichick,

90
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: when this era finally ends, you're not gonna look back

91
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: at this team. They're not gonna be loaded with Hall

92
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: of famers. It's not gonna be like Chuck Knowles Steelers

93
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: or Bill Walsh's forty Niners or they're all these Hall

94
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: of famers. It's gonna be Brady, you know, if you

95
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: guys maybe from the defense, yeah, Gronk, you know, I

96
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: guess Randy Moss may end up making it there. But

97
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 1: even but he was only a Patriot for a couple

98
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: of years. This is not going to be a franchise

99
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: that just loads up on Hall of Fame players. Yeah,

100
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: it's been amazing. They loaded up on very good players.

101
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: Tom Brady has had four touchdowns, Julian aim And had two,

102
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: Ronk Haad one, Dian Lewis had the other one. But man,

103
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: it was it was a fantasy ber Nanza for the Patriots,

104
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: even the defense. Even Costkowski uh chipped in, what have

105
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: I always said about him? He is like having an

106
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,239
Speaker 1: extra tight end or a wide receiver in your roster

107
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: because he's always going to put up very, very good numbers.

108
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: Look at the last three or four years. I mean,

109
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: if you ranked him among the top tight ends, he's

110
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 1: two or three every year. There's no question about He's amazing. Um,

111
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: And you gotta love the consistency as well from Costkowsky.

112
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: But yeah, so yeah, I mean everyone on the Patriots feasted.

113
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: I don't know what do we make of the Dolphins.

114
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Marcus, you've been hammering this um to the

115
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 1: viewers of NFL Fanacy Live that look, the Dolphins have

116
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: looked great, but they've also played two terrible teams. Um.

117
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 1: I guess Tennessee is not terrible, but but Tennessee they're

118
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: pretty close. Ain't great either, but uh, defensive I wouldn't

119
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: say they're terrible, but yeah, um, and so now they

120
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: go up against a very good team, a great team

121
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: really in the Patriots, and the Dolphins offense just got shut. Now. Yeah.

122
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: I mean, the one thing I said about Ryan Tannehill

123
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: yesterday or Thursday on on Fantasy Live was be a

124
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: little bit aware because the numbers you talked about fp

125
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: A Fantasy points against, and the Patriots number was somewhere

126
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: close to twenty points a game. But looking at it, it

127
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: it was a little bit misleading because before last night

128
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: they'd only given up one three yard passing game, and

129
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 1: even Tannehill's last night, I mean, it was kind of

130
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: inconsequential because you know that game was over well into

131
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: the third quarter, and you know, like they have some

132
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: decent yards to the wide receiver's Landry Rochard Matthews had

133
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: okay games, I guess, but that Patriots defense is actually

134
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 1: better than I think some of the numbers have have shown.

135
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: And I just kind of cautioned people, you know, be

136
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: a little bit careful about playing Ryan Tannehill this week.

137
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 1: And so you know, they're they're not a bad team.

138
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: The Dolphins off intily. They've got plenty of weapons, they've

139
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: got plenty of pieces, but they're kind of a matchup

140
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: based group. Part of the issue two was they forced

141
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: themselves into a one dimensional game they did by committing

142
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: stilly mistakes against the team you can't commit silly mistakes against,

143
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: like the safety, the early interception, like when you and

144
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: their defense played well. But they spotted the Patriots like

145
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: twelve nineteen points unnecessarily early, and it took I mean,

146
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: Lamar millerd only in fifteen rushing yards like that's an

147
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: offense as we've seen the last couple of weeks, that

148
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: needs to have a solid ground game, and they forced

149
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: themselves into a one dimensional game script and paid the

150
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: price after room is a bit off the rose on

151
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 1: Dan Campbell, isn't it? After last night's game? I mean,

152
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't guess the Patriots, it's so tough.

153
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: I think next week when they play the Bills, maybe

154
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: we get a that'll be a better litmus test. I

155
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 1: would agree with that. Um So, I guess what do

156
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: we make from the from from the Dolphin side of things.

157
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, Lamar Millard, you know again didn't put

158
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: up tremendous numbers. Um gotten the end zone, which sort

159
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: of which I had him pegged for, like, you know,

160
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: just over nine points he got with nine point four. Again,

161
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: we we talked about the Patriots being able to limit

162
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: you and be one dimensional. Um. The Dolphins, I mean,

163
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: obviously you look at their starting field position. Uh, it's

164
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: it's funny how that plays a big role in offense

165
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: as well. And their field position was just terrible all

166
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: night was hid in yard man. Yeah, no doubt about it. Um. Again,

167
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill not a great game. Jarvis Jarvis Lange was

168
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: just wiped out. He luckily, Luckily if you're in a

169
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: PPR league, he got pretty decent production from Landry and

170
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: uh from Richard Matthews. The standard leagues, it wasn't as good.

171
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: Richard Matthews, I thought, Um, I don't want to say

172
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: he cost him the game because they just got destroyed.

173
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: But man, early on, Richard Matthews was not doing Ryan

174
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: Tannehill any favors. He had twelve targets yesterday, By the way,

175
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: that's quite a few. That's a lot Richard Mathews twelve

176
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: and he wasn't terribly efficient. Twelve targets just sixty some

177
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: odd yards. That's not great. All right, well, I guess

178
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 1: that's all we can take. Oh Cameron Wake, by the way,

179
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: it's like he's out for the year, out for the years. Yeah,

180
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: that's Cam is an awesome player. Yeah, he's very starting

181
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: to play really great him and you were starting to think, Okay,

182
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: this is it right here, this is what they signed

183
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 1: up for. This Miami defense could be the real deal.

184
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: But alas Cameron Wake uh an achilles injury. I believe

185
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,599
Speaker 1: now out for the year. All right, let's get the

186
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: top headlines, the Cameron highlights in the world of sports.

187
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: Breaking breaking news, breaking news, likely continue to follow breaking news,

188
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: action news, kids, your wife, Alex, you're gonna have to

189
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: walk me through the top headline here. Darius Hayward basses uh.

190
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger arm looks pretty good. Yeah, I love how

191
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: we're going to hay Bay the authority on this dry

192
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: You couldn't get one of the actually like great receivers.

193
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: That's why half the reason I put it in, because

194
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,839
Speaker 1: I was like, what the hell is going on? Dr?

195
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: Hey Bay Hey bay Man. But yeah, so hey, he

196
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: says Ben's arm looks great, and that's all we need.

197
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: To know, fire him up right, But it's not Why

198
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 1: are you talking about his arm? It's on his arms

199
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: that I'm worried about. How does his knee look? I'm

200
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: sorry I thought that Ben Roethlisberg goes out in these

201
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 1: games because of a knee injury. You don't throw like

202
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: you don't throw with your knee, James, you don't throw

203
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 1: with your knee. That's great. Um, I just love I

204
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: loved so many things. Also a quote from the article.

205
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: I don't know what his knees feeling, but his arms

206
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: definitely all right? Why thanks, hey by? Thanks? That gives

207
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: us no clarity whatsoever to the Steelers quarterback situation. But no, Look,

208
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: he's practicing with the first team. He feels like he's

209
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: optimistic to play. There's been pretty much no indication that

210
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: he won't play. I know the coaching staff is he said, yeah, okay,

211
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: slow down. So but you know, come on, let's let's

212
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: look at what we're seeing on the practice field. And

213
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: he's practiced. Man, So, um, I don't know anyone here.

214
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 1: I'd be really surprised if he doesn't go on Sunday.

215
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: I'd be shocked if he doesn't go on Sunday. I'm

216
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: fully expecting him to play this week. And you know, hey,

217
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: that's that's great news for Antonio Brown and Brian Levian

218
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: Bell and you know, maybe even Heath Miller, who knows.

219
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: But the the the gang, the band is back together again, Yeah, buddy,

220
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: And I'm really expecting that team to put up some points.

221
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: So that's gonna be a high scoring game. Because the

222
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: Bengals offenses is really really just shooting on all cylinders

223
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 1: right now. Uh, Pittsburgh is vulnerable in the past, so

224
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: Falton should have a game. Uh. The Cincinnati defense is good,

225
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: but you know they can be had as well. So

226
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 1: I think Roethlisberger really has a very strong game. And um,

227
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be one of those thirty thirty games.

228
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: A lot of players are gonna be putting up a

229
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: lot of them. Also, I mean, the Bengals are six

230
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: and oh and if the Steelers want to be in

231
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: this race or even like think about the playoffs, they

232
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: must win. They have to win. This is like, this

233
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: is gonna be one of the games the weekend, at least,

234
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: we hope. Um, I'll just I'll just throw this out there. Uh,

235
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: it's it's it's the f C. North and for some reason,

236
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 1: these guys like to play each other at a low

237
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: scoring games. That's That's exactly how I feel these two

238
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: teams know each other. I just don't I don't see

239
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: a lot of points in it. I feel like this

240
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: is a you know, seventeen thirteen kind of slug feest.

241
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know the way these the

242
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,719
Speaker 1: way these offenses are built now and are playing like

243
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 1: this is not this is not the a f C.

244
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: North of Old Man. But every time, all season long, everything,

245
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 1: every time we come here and we come on this

246
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: podcast like this is gonna be a shootout, and like then,

247
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: you know, we watched teams play to like a you know,

248
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,439
Speaker 1: six three first half score and you know the quarterbacks

249
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: have a combined hundred and seventy three yards passing. Can

250
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 1: I make one argument though, why I I do believe

251
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 1: that it might be a lower scoring games. So I

252
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,079
Speaker 1: think Ben Roethlisberger is going to try to protect that

253
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: a little bit. I think the Steelers want to protect

254
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: Ben a little bit. They can't have him dropped back

255
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: forty times a game, and so for that reason, and

256
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 1: they have maybe the best running back in the league

257
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: and Levi on Bell, I would be um surprised given

258
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: his knee injury if they don't try to force feed

259
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,319
Speaker 1: the run game, especially early on. And if they do that,

260
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 1: they're gonna bleed a little bit of clock. And we

261
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: know about Hugh Jackson, he's got two great running backs

262
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: as well. Um, maybe they try to bleed the clock

263
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,199
Speaker 1: a little bit too. Uh So that got the Red

264
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: Rifles slinging it like he's slinging it back there. I'm

265
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: sure Andy Dalton still has the highest yards per tempt

266
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: average in the league. And if you're attacking Pittsburgh's weakness

267
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: on defense, you gotta it's not the run they've suth

268
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: on the run they got, you gotta throw it. No,

269
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 1: you're right, So I that's my only thing, just because

270
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 1: I think Pittsburgh's gonna try to run the ball a

271
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: lot and bleed some clock. Um, that's the only thing.

272
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: I think It'll be a little bit lower scoring. Although

273
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: I mean you look at it on paper and you say, Okay,

274
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a pretty high shooting matchup. But

275
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just a little bit cautious there.

276
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Dallas. The Cowboys say Dees

277
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: will play. Optimistic. They're optimistic. He's gonna play. He's been practicing.

278
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: He had a pretty good day of practice on Thursday.

279
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: It's it's early Friday, so we haven't got the practice

280
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: report here Friday. But on Thursday Dez said he was,

281
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: you know, practicing well. The coaching staff said he was

282
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 1: practicing well. Uh. He takes on a Seattle Seahawks defense

283
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: man that is still extremely nasty in the secondary, really

284
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: nasty everywhere. But um, you know, if you have Dez,

285
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: do you at least throw him into the flex and

286
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: hope for the best. How do you not start him?

287
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: If you start, you gotta start this week? There's one

288
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: one because the talent attles well. But you're talking about

289
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: your You drafted Dez Bryant to be an every week starter, sure,

290
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: so why aren't you starting him every week? I don't

291
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: care what the matchup is. I don't care if it's

292
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: Matt Castle throwing it. I don't care if it's Babel

293
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: Offenberg who comes back to sling the rock. You're starting

294
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: Dez Brian because you know what if you if you

295
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: start the Bryant and he doesn't have a good game,

296
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: You're like, well, there's a matchup, there was a quarterback. Whatever.

297
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: If you sit des Bryant and he goes on Bryant things,

298
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: you're gonna be kicking yourself for a week. You're gonna

299
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: be killing you. Know you're right, man, I just the

300
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: foot injury, the quarterback, the I don't think about it.

301
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: Just put him in walking away to match up. I mean,

302
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: there are a million reasons for you to talk yourself

303
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: out to start. There's one reason for you to put

304
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: him in the lineup, and that's because he's Des Bryant. Man,

305
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: you guys are so gung home. I'm like, wow, Okay,

306
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: I guess I'm playing them. I guess I'm playing them.

307
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: Stick with your studs, man, I don't want to I

308
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: don't want to play. I'll take him. You want to

309
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: trade him to me? No, but I don't want to

310
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: play him this week. I want to wait a week. Okay,

311
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 1: play him? Man? That is right? Okay, all right, you guys,

312
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 1: should you know what he's in? He's in the lineup.

313
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: I mean, Des is just a freak of nature. To

314
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: all those errant passes that Matt Castle might throw away

315
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: from other receivers, Des is gonna catch at least half

316
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 1: of them, all right, Can I get it? Can I

317
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: get a stat projection? Let me let the folks feel

318
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: a little bit better if they got desperate touch old man,

319
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: all right, he's in the lineup. Let's do it. Let's

320
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: do it in the touch. I like it so fast.

321
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to make him feel better. I mean,

322
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: if we him didn't hard like sixty three yards, then

323
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: he'd freak out and he wouldn't blink. That should be

324
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: a new segment on Fantasy Live. It's hemming and had.

325
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: I think you'll get likes. It's more about the potential,

326
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: right because he's so talented. Just you know, one play,

327
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: he's gonna help your fantasy team exactly. He doesn't have

328
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: a good history against Richard Sherman either. Listen, who does right?

329
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: So I just I I know that there are some

330
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: negatives in the situation. Castle being one of them. Uh,

331
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: the matchup being one of them. As Marcus said, they're

332
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: not gonna They're not gonna bring him back unless he's fine.

333
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: They're they're really not. I mean they're two and four

334
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: right now. Uh. If des Bryant wasn't healthy, he's not

335
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,479
Speaker 1: coming back. I don't know. That they would bring This

336
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: is a guy they just gave a whole ball little

337
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: money to. Why would they bring him back if he

338
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 1: wasn't healthy. Um, mostly because he can lie. He can

339
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 1: say that he's actors won't lie. And uh well, I

340
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: mean there there is doctors have no idea how much

341
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: paint tolerance or or where he's at in terms of

342
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: his I mean, you know, I do think there's also

343
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: the issue of the Cowboys are still hanging around in

344
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,360
Speaker 1: this crap division and the more help they can get

345
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 1: back in, the sooner they can get that help back.

346
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,719
Speaker 1: You know, they're they're willing. I mean, look, you know

347
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: the Cowboys obviously they're trying to win football games, and

348
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: they still have a shot there two and four. They've

349
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: lost four in a row, but there's still what a

350
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: game and a half back of the Giants for first

351
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: place in the division. Yeah, I mean if they can,

352
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,360
Speaker 1: if they can, you know, if if Dez can gut

353
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 1: it out and help them win a football game, They're

354
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: gonna put him Backame. I feel like the winner of

355
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: the NFC East and the winner of the a f

356
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 1: C South should play and the user gets relegated. It

357
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: would be like a playing game like you know how

358
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 1: they have for the tournament, Like for the n c

359
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 1: A tournament, they have that playing game that we can

360
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: we can have it in Baton to just like the

361
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: n c A tournament in Baton, and then the winner

362
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: goes on to play like the one seed. You realize

363
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 1: there probably will be a sad playing game and both

364
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 1: of those divisions because the NFL always schedules divisional games

365
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 1: in like week fifteen. Kind of stuffy Cowboys fans know

366
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 1: very well about those because it doesn't worked out for

367
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 1: you guys, hasn't worked out. Uh, we'll stand Dallas. It's

368
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: it's not on our our rundown here. But how about

369
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,400
Speaker 1: Joe Randall? A lot of rumors that he could be

370
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: suspended for multiple games, Um, you know, obviously opening the

371
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:42,400
Speaker 1: door here for Darren McFadden and Christian mikel. I still

372
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 1: don't know what the correct pronunciation of Chris Mike Chris Mike.

373
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: I think I think we just call that's right. I

374
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 1: like it. Um, So yeah, what what do we make

375
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: of that news? Um? Obviously nothing officials come down yet.

376
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: I don't know Randall, but it's tough. It's tough until

377
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 1: we hear something official like, because this is one of

378
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: those things where until the n f L tells the

379
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 1: cowboys like, hey, he's suspended, they're not. I mean, he's

380
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: injured right now, but there it's not like they're gonna

381
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,719
Speaker 1: they would mention him because he might have something going on.

382
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm not surprised man like. Talent wise, I

383
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: didn't really have a question about him. But he's got

384
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,160
Speaker 1: a two cent head. He's got a two cent head,

385
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: and and that's coming back to uh, coming back to

386
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: buy him right now. All right, we'll move on Green Bay.

387
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: James Dark's has an injured hip. Lacy his quote unquote bigger. Well,

388
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: I mean this is I put this on here as

389
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: I figured you'd I figured you'd enjoy it too. Um

390
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 1: somebody his weight came up as an issue naturally by

391
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 1: week and McCarthy's like, yeah, he's bigger, but it's not.

392
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: It's not an issue. Like if it was an issue,

393
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 1: the training staff would have told him. And that's what

394
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: Lacey said too. I thought at the beginning of the

395
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: year he actually looked more like more yoked up, like

396
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: it was in his arms and stuff. It wasn't in

397
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 1: the gut so much. But yeah, it came up. Lacey said,

398
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: he hasn't the trainers have never said anything like Ted

399
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: Thompson hasn't called down and been like, yo, you know

400
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 1: what's funny that treadmill is that Eddie Lacy blamed unflattering

401
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: photos they are. I mean, I think there's there's okay.

402
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 1: So in his rookie year there was that infamous photo

403
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: where he was like turning to catch a pass and

404
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: it looked like his thing and it was like, oh

405
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: my god, he's so fat. Like a month earlier, when

406
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 1: he was running the forty at the Combine, he had

407
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 1: a six pack still like, he says, one of those

408
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: guys that has a bigger stomach with a six pack

409
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 1: on it. He's not washboard bread pitt abbs. I don't

410
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: know if he's still rocking the six pack or not.

411
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 1: I don't think I mean on the Hulk T shirt,

412
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,680
Speaker 1: but I don't think he's rocking the six The thing

413
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 1: is us down here Starks Starts is injured. So this

414
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: could be a get right game for Lacey where he

415
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: gets a bunch of a bunch of touches. He says

416
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: he feels healthy, feels healthy. Finally, like ankle was dogging him.

417
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: He's had you know, suffered it in week two. He's

418
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,120
Speaker 1: a big boy. This is uh. What I find interesting though,

419
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: is that he somebody asked him point blank, hey, how

420
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: much do you weigh? He wouldn't answer the question. He said, he's, uh, well,

421
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: first of all, I think he's listed like two forty five,

422
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: which was like, oh, he's listed at two thirty four

423
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: thirty four. I think it's like what like four pounds

424
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: over his combine? Well yeah, and I mean like b J.

425
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: Raji was always listed at like three oh five or

426
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: something like. Okay, you see that with all defensive linemen

427
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 1: to five, like okay, like three or five in high school? Right? Um?

428
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: But but but what Eddie Lacy pointed to, even though

429
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: he would not disclose his exact weight, was that he

430
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 1: said to Thompson, uh, they have fines I guess for

431
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: being for being overweight, and to Thompson did not Olivia fine,

432
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 1: And he hasn't even, according to Eddie Lacy, hasn't even

433
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: talked to Eddie Lacy about his weight. So I guess

434
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: therefore his number must be under CONDI I think I

435
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: don't think. I don't think I'm worried and also it's

436
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: like he was he was bigger at the end of

437
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 1: last year two but in uh, the Seattle game, in

438
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,679
Speaker 1: the championship, and then in that Chicago and before he

439
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: entered his ankle, Lacey looked good. He had quick feet,

440
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: he was making the right cuts and stuff. And I

441
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,679
Speaker 1: don't think we can stress enough how much an ankle,

442
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: especially on a guy the size of lady, big bigger hand,

443
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 1: how much it's going to slow you down. So uh,

444
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: for those of you that still have him, hopefully you

445
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: didn't panic. I mean you might have to panic soon

446
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: if he doesn't get going. But all right, so if

447
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 1: he doesn't get going in this game, in this game,

448
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: I get that it's Denver, it's at Denver elevation, does

449
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: not play well. He's got asthma too, so it's all

450
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: going wrong. But that's why, like I said on Tuesday,

451
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 1: watch him drop a hundred, because everything says he won't.

452
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 1: Like we're like Steelers Bagels high scoring twelve to six,

453
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: ye lazy overweighting in the altitude a hundred forty but

454
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 1: no figure lead strikes again. I mean, okay, if if

455
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 1: if a guy's got Eddie Lacey and he wants to

456
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 1: play him in the RB two spot. Okay, I mean,

457
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: how how much depth do you have to sit somebody

458
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: like Eddie Lacey? I mean, have you have you been

459
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire for running backs lately? I started,

460
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 1: I started the show by talking about I almost grabbed

461
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: THEO ritic because I didn't know. Right now, It's like

462
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 1: there's a couple of leagues where I'm picking up joke

463
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 1: Bell just in case, just in case, because Pola has

464
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 1: not done the job. No, you know, you know what's crazy.

465
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,360
Speaker 1: That's that's what it's. To his point in my fourteen

466
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: team said RB league, you didn't I picked up Reggie Bush,

467
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: Sir Reginald Alfred Bush the second I picked up Reggie Bush.

468
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 1: That's how. That's how sad it is on the waiver wire, man,

469
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,880
Speaker 1: it is. That's the truth. I did that. I didn't

470
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: feel great about it. No, you kind of felt dirty,

471
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: didn't you. I felt horrible about it. I looked and

472
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 1: then I looked at his ownership percentage. I think on

473
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: I think on NFL dot Com. It's it's less than

474
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: ten percent um, and I'm one of those sad owners.

475
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: It makes me sad. All right, Yeah, we shall move on. Um. Oh,

476
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 1: I guess we're we're doing good matches, bad match Well, no,

477
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: it's still fp A. I just put some guys there,

478
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 1: so we had some names beneficial fp A situations. Alright,

479
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: so we're gonna educate the folks out here. F p

480
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,479
Speaker 1: A Fantasy Points Against. You can find it by going

481
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 1: to NFL dot com slash fantasy football. Um, there is

482
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: a research tab. When you go to that home page,

483
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,919
Speaker 1: click on research and it should take you, I believe,

484
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: to our Fantasy Points against page. Look, this is basically

485
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 1: how it's ranked when you when you look at it,

486
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: it'll tell you what the team is giving up in

487
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 1: terms of fantasy points to opposing positions. So, uh, fp

488
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: A versus quarterback. For example, the Baltimore Ravens have given

489
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 1: up on average one point five nine points per game

490
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 1: fantasy points per game to the quarterback position. Um, it's

491
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: how a lot of fantasy quote unquote experts figure out matchups.

492
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 1: What looks good, what looks bad on paper? Um, obviously

493
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 1: you have to nuance that a bit with injuries, and

494
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 1: you know basically what your eyeball test is telling you.

495
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 1: Uh and really just you know, you think about the matchups.

496
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: But it's one way. It's an extra way, uh in

497
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 1: in ingredient that we used to figure out what is

498
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 1: truly a good or bad matchup. Alright, So I did

499
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 1: want to educate people out there a little bit. Look,

500
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens are given up the most fantasy points

501
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 1: per game to the quarterback position, followed by the Saints.

502
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: At the bottom of the ledger would be the Denver

503
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 1: Broncos and the St. Louis Rams. If you did not know,

504
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: give me a quarterback that you like this week, fabs,

505
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 1: just one, you only want one, I'll give me a bunch. Well,

506
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna get killed for this one, all right,

507
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 1: I don't care. I still like Eli Manning. I know

508
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 1: he killed me last week, uh with with a with

509
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: an absolute stink bomb against my beloved Cowboys. But in

510
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: New Orleans, against the defense that's really struggled against quarterbacks

511
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 1: this year. They're giving up an average of over twenty

512
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: Fantasy points a game. I would still have faith in

513
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: Eli Manning. Matthew Stafford is someone who is at least

514
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 1: somewhat back in the good graces of fantasy owners, and

515
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 1: um he scored over fifty two combined Fantasy points in

516
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 1: his last two games, and the Chiefs, uh, well, you

517
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 1: know they've given up an average of right around eighteen

518
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 1: points a game two quarterbacks. They're much worse against wide receivers.

519
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan stink bomb last week, but I like him

520
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 1: against the Buccaneers. I think this is gonna be a

521
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: very high scoring game for Atlanta, a game where you're

522
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: going to see the Falcons put up some big time

523
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: numbers both on the scoreboard and in your fantasy football league.

524
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,199
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay is the fourth most generous to quarterbacks. To

525
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 1: your point, you talked about the Ravens Philip Rivers. Uh.

526
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: I mean when you we got a guy that's throwing

527
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: the ball fifty times, right, and I'm kind of going

528
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,960
Speaker 1: backwards on my start um and um. And then you

529
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: you include a player, uh, player with that many pass

530
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: attempts and a defense that's that bad against quarterbacks, that's

531
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 1: a no brainer. And I also like Cam Newton last week.

532
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: I was a little bit disappointed with his production or

533
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: lack thereof, But the Colts are giving up an average

534
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 1: of more than seventeen fantasy points a game. It's a

535
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: Monday night game. I like having a quarterback who can

536
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,199
Speaker 1: put up big numbers playing on a Monday night, and uh,

537
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 1: I think I'm laying cam against Matt money Smith in

538
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 1: the NFL Fantasy Live League. And oh, by the way,

539
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: have you said Money's team? I don't know how he

540
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: has a losing record. It's weird because there that happens

541
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 1: a lot in fantasy where you look at a team

542
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: and it's like, wow, well it's so good on paper.

543
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: Same league. I looked at your team because I've been

544
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 1: having a good season the Fantasy Live league, and I

545
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: was like, oh, I'm probably close to most points in

546
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: the league. Two. I looked you have more points than me,

547
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 1: and I looked at your team and I was like,

548
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: how is this possible? Yeah, well, I've had some I've

549
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: had some pretty big performances for my wide receivers. Um

550
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 1: that that team, when you look at it, it's like

551
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 1: it's a good team. It's but like I didn't because

552
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 1: you're six and one in that league and you have

553
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,400
Speaker 1: the most points, because I was I'm five and two,

554
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, I gotta be leading my division.

555
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: I looked, I'm like, how is fab six and one?

556
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: And then I looked at his team and I was like,

557
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: how is this team six and one, But well, have

558
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 1: you looked at have you looked at the division split?

559
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: I'm in the good division in the sense that my

560
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: team is three and four and I'm a game behind

561
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 1: James Co first place. I have helps, That's very true,

562
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 1: and I have which I think I drafted him and

563
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: dropped him. So you're welcome, thank you, and not for nothing.

564
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 1: But Ty has been great the last couple of weeks.

565
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: Lynch has been lynched the last couple of weeks, and

566
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: people are And I was a guy who hated Decker

567
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: last year because well he was going to the Jets.

568
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 1: But I mean, if you look at his numbers, he's good.

569
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: He's good at football. Four touchdowns and in standard leagues

570
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 1: he's given you his floors like nine or ten every week.

571
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 1: You know what it's proven, though, is that he is

572
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,679
Speaker 1: probably the best of the best of the number two's

573
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: out there. Well, he's just not. He doesn't have the

574
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: speed or separation to be a number one. He does

575
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: he had he had a rough quarterback situation last year

576
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: and he was like the offense. They weren't giving the

577
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: ball enough to Chris Ivory. They didn't have Brandon Marshall.

578
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: Now they have a whole a better system, and he's

579
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 1: he's still produced pretty good numbers last year, but he

580
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: also had a hamstring injury. I just think, I don't know.

581
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I think they're there. He's being a beneficial

582
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: or of seeing the second best cornerback. I think I

583
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: think he's a lot better than you give him credit for.

584
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 1: He's got like he's got like one fewer Fantasy pointed

585
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:11,479
Speaker 1: Demarrius Thomas. You know, so I know Demerius has been

586
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: a disappointment this season, but when you look at it, uh,

587
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: in those terms, I mean, Decker's got fifty five points,

588
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: and then you're looking at Damarius has got fifty six,

589
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: Macklin's got fifty eight, Cobbs got sixty. Um, so he's

590
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: he's right in there. Decker missed an extra game too,

591
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: and Decker Decker missed the game. So um, listen, man,

592
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:37,719
Speaker 1: He's He's been a big time bargain for me a

593
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: lot of Fantasy owners to slide back to the FP

594
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: A thing a little bit. One thing I would say

595
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 1: I would advise as our listeners to do as well,

596
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 1: is don't just look at the straight number. Also look

597
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: at some of the other things, like, um, efficiency of

598
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: like how often people are scoring touchdowns against them, Because

599
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 1: while yes, the Ravens defense has been bleeding points to

600
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and stuff, if you look at a team like

601
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay or Chicago, they've allowed more touchdown passes than

602
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 1: the Ravens on far fewer attempts, Like they have a

603
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: lot of fifteen touchdowns on only a hundred and two

604
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: attempts versus thirteen two teams. Are teams are scoring passing

605
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: touchdowns a lot more frequently against those defenses. So while

606
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: they're a little farther down in f p are, like,

607
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: there's still amazing matchups and like, as we maybe as

608
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: a segue into the running back discussion, while the Falcons

609
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 1: defense has a terrible f p A against running backs,

610
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: they're actually only allowing like three points six yards per carry.

611
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: Where they're getting dinged is in touchdowns that big old

612
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: ten spot right there and through the air against running backs,

613
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: the receiving yards are far and away the most given

614
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: up by a defense to receive running back. So there

615
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: is like you mentioned it, James, but just to to

616
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: let people know, like don't just go straight off the number,

617
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: like actually there's all if you go to that page

618
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 1: there's all that information still right there, the receiving yards,

619
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: rushing yards. Crunch a few numbers, look at it yourself

620
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: and and help yourself figure out those good matchups. Yeah,

621
00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: I mean you mentioned the Ravens, right, I mean they

622
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: give up only one point five nine points per game. Well,

623
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 1: I mean you go down the list. I mean Tampa

624
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: Bay is at number four. They're twenty point three four,

625
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: So I mean they're at very they're very very close. Uh.

626
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: There's there's tears to this, right, there's levels to this

627
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: stuff mine. But yeah, it's so Baltimore and Tampa Bay

628
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 1: definitely in the bottom. Uh, well, there's the bottom tier,

629
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: to say the least. Uh. I didn't want to ask

630
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: you guys about this. Look Houston Place, Tennessee. Marcus Mariota.

631
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 1: We don't know about the full extent of his health yet,

632
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: but he's a sneaky matchup play. If he's healthy, no

633
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: matchup play. Yeah, the matchup works for him. I mean

634
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 1: I guess the positives because you know, the last couple

635
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: of games have not been very good. But the upside

636
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: is he's had a couple of weeks off, you know,

637
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: he had the injury. He's been able to rest kind

638
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 1: of watch from the sidelines, which I think being able,

639
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: especially as a young player to watch from the sideline

640
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,479
Speaker 1: is invaluable. It doesn't happen a lot in the NFL

641
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 1: because these guys in the first few rounds get huge contracts.

642
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: They have to play right away. Um. I mean Tyrod

643
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: Taylor thinks a great example of that. So I mean

644
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: being able to kind of sit and watch for a

645
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 1: little while, uh see what he's doing wrong, doing right?

646
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: That combined with the matchup, means he could put up

647
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: a decent number. I mean I wouldn't expect him to

648
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: have a huge number, but you know, if you're in

649
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 1: a pinch and you need somebody, I think you can,

650
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: you know, take a chance on on Mariota. Do we

651
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 1: think they drop him back out there with a spring knee?

652
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: I mean, this is their franchise. Let me ask you

653
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 1: a question too, Do you even dare play the Texans

654
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: defense this week? No? No, No, the Titans? I have

655
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 1: them in my top ten. The Titans are the worst

656
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 1: team when it comes to fantasy points allowed against defenses?

657
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: So do you dare play the Texans at home? Now?

658
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: I think you could. I have him in my top ten.

659
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: I mean, so this really is a case of the

660
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: stoppable force against the movable object, right right, right right.

661
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: You got a rookie quarterback heads up to the hand,

662
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: you know, shout out to Dan hands as. I saw

663
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:52,959
Speaker 1: him tweet that the other day. But this is uh

664
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback who could be a little gampy, and I

665
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: know that you would think, guys, you would think Bill

666
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: O'Brien probably worked that team to hell this week because

667
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 1: they were embarrassed. They were embar They're a bad football team.

668
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't even know, I know, but uh,

669
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 1: the home team against either hobbled rookie quarterback or Zach Mettenberg,

670
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, you can fire up the Texans teas.

671
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, you know what I know they remember that.

672
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: It was it was a few weeks ago and we

673
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 1: all thought the Texans defense was a good play against

674
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 1: Indianapolis and they gave you nothing. But then the following

675
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: week they scored sixteen points against Jacksonville and that was

676
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: a great matchup, and everyone avoided it because it was

677
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 1: the Texans. They had just gotten stunk by the by

678
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 1: the old man who was sick in Matt Hasselbeck and

679
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 1: now you've got a good matchup here. Last week they

680
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: got destroyed. I have him in the top ten. I

681
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 1: like it. Let's move on to the running back position.

682
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 1: The Cleveland Browns UH have sneakily been the worst defense

683
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: against the run. Was sneaks. I feel like every year

684
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: the Browns are near the bottom of that list. You

685
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: would think that they have added enough pieces on defense

686
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 1: that they wouldn't be this bad. Mike Pettons supposedly is

687
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: a defensive coach. Uh no has not worked out. Uh.

688
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: They are the worst. Uh. And if you look at them,

689
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,879
Speaker 1: it's like you know, we talked about the eyeball test.

690
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 1: If you just watch him play, they're they're not good awful. Anyways,

691
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 1: they take on Arizona um and you if you think

692
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:35,760
Speaker 1: about Daily Fantasy, man, holy cal. I feel like Chris Johnson,

693
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 1: given his valuation, given the matchup, and given that Arizona offense,

694
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:44,399
Speaker 1: he you almost have to play him in Daily. Oh

695
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 1: you have to play I mean, I know it's gonna

696
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 1: be a popular play in Daily and everybody's gonna kind

697
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 1: of run to that matchup, but it's just it's too

698
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: good I think to pass up this week. I mean,

699
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 1: he's he's a good one. I think Justin Forsett is

700
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,359
Speaker 1: another really good one. Those are those are probably gonna

701
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,799
Speaker 1: be very very popular plays in DFS tournaments. But you

702
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 1: know it's hard to turn that down. Yeah it is.

703
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,879
Speaker 1: Chris Johnson. You can't even overstate his value. He's been

704
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: that good this year, coming out of nowhere nowhere to

705
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 1: nowhere to become the second leading rusher in the league

706
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: and a top ten fantasy running back. And this is

707
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: after a couple of seasons in Tennessee where you started

708
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 1: to see, you know, he wasn't as as quick, he

709
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 1: wasn't as productive. Um. And then last year with the

710
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 1: Jets he split and carries with Chris Ivory and he

711
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 1: was very unimpressive. Now Bruce arians has reinvigorated him. I mean,

712
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: he found the fought in of youth in the desert

713
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 1: and right now, dare I say, and and this isn't

714
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 1: like two thousand and six, Chris Johnson's it must start

715
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: this week? He is, No, he totally is this week.

716
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 1: So the Chargers are probably just as bad against the run.

717
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:56,240
Speaker 1: The Cowboys are in the bottom three. Um, the culture

718
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: just got awful as well. But um, I did want

719
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: to bring the Colts because they take on Caroline on Monday.

720
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: You mentioned you want a big score. Look, if you're

721
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,239
Speaker 1: in a fourteen team or a league fourteen team league,

722
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: or maybe a twelve team league with a bunch of

723
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,359
Speaker 1: bench spots or something, I'm gonna give you a danger

724
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 1: zone pick here. Obviously. Jonathan Stewart, I think is gonna

725
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 1: have a great game. I think Cam Newton, because they

726
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 1: just cannot stop the run, is also going to have

727
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 1: a tremendous game. Um. I think he's got one of

728
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: the best five matchups um this week among quarterbacks. But

729
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 1: how about do I dare go big old Mike Tilbert,

730
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 1: I think report the tall bear report us. It is

731
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 1: very dangerous. He's actually splitting uh snaps fifty fifty with

732
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: Jonathan Stewart, not splitting touches though not Scott in the

733
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 1: goal line one. So that's what that's why it's dangerous,

734
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,959
Speaker 1: that's what you're Stewart spent really good the last couple

735
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: of weeks he has, but told Bert seems to get

736
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 1: those gold line touches. I mean right right of the

737
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: vultures right now is king of He is a big

738
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 1: old vulture, as Stewart and his last two games he

739
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,399
Speaker 1: scored over thirty two combined fantasy point. I think he's

740
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,279
Speaker 1: finally healthy and have two touchdowns in Seattle. Sold wasn't

741
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 1: taken away goal line, goal line from him? Yeah, I mean,

742
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: of course it's it's I'm playing this base purely off

743
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: of the matchup. The Colts especially, they don't have a problem.

744
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 1: I don't believe with running backs with speed. It's running

745
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:28,680
Speaker 1: backs who could just straight just hammer right up the gut,

746
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 1: right up the middle. And if that's if if anyone's

747
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 1: excellent at doing that, that would be Mike Tilbert. So yeah,

748
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: I'm of course expect he's going to be touchdown dependent.

749
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 1: Of course his fantasy value will be tied in there.

750
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 1: But the Colts defenders probably PTSD from what Lacarrett Blunt

751
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 1: did to them exactly. They wake up but like night tremars, like, uh,

752
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: where has he got any other interesting matchups here? I

753
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: mean some of the obviously once we talked about, well,

754
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,800
Speaker 1: all the wide receivers in that London game. Kansas City

755
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,919
Speaker 1: and Detroit I think are are great starts, especially because

756
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: Klin will be coming back after missing his last game

757
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,839
Speaker 1: with concussion. Yeah, those are those are two defenses that

758
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: but like, I mean, everybody talks with the Chiefs, but

759
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 1: the Detroit has not exactly been great against the past either,

760
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 1: and Macklin could make some Hey, so he's really good.

761
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: He's a number two all day long. Oh yeah, there

762
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 1: that that That game could be a sneaky, sneaky shootout too,

763
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 1: I think, And like, if there was ever a get

764
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,880
Speaker 1: right game for Golden Tate, this is this is it.

765
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: It's gotta be it. But what is interesting with that

766
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: offense too, is we what's so frustrating too, is they're

767
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 1: coming into this great matchup and we really don't know

768
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: how the offense is gonna look under the greatest name

769
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 1: in NFL history, Jim Bob, which, by the way, I

770
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: gotta give props, you know, because one of the beat

771
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 1: writers in Detroit was talking about the the the new

772
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator they are and asking people, you know, asking

773
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: some of the players how they felt when they first

774
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 1: heard the name, and uh, Eric Ebron just said, yeah,

775
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 1: I laughed the first time that I thought I was

776
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 1: supposed to laugh, isn't Isn't it a joke? So they're

777
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,799
Speaker 1: there are the Lions are having all the same humor

778
00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: about it. That he needs to go by Jake JBC.

779
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:02,879
Speaker 1: That's what I'm gonna start calling him because he needs

780
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 1: to go I mean, but just even Cooter, that's just

781
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:09,879
Speaker 1: that's just so funny on a million different levels. It's

782
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 1: just me and Jim Bob. I was reading. I was

783
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,360
Speaker 1: reading an article to his name is James Robert Robert.

784
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,399
Speaker 1: He's the one that decided to go by Jim Bob,

785
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 1: Jim Bob. It's not like he's the son of some

786
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 1: Southern NASCAR fans or something and they wanted to name

787
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 1: him Jim Bob Cooter. Oh, they gave him a very

788
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: respectable day James Roberts, and he's like James Rubbert Jim Bob.

789
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 1: But anyways, back to actual Fantasy great matchup all around

790
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 1: for all of those guys, and uh, fire up your

791
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 1: wide receivers in that game. Going back to the running

792
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: back f p a UM the three least generous um

793
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: and I think one of these names will surprise you

794
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 1: going from the bottom to the top. It's the Jets

795
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 1: have been only giving up nine Fantasy points again and

796
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 1: they don't give anything wide receivers and number one wide

797
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 1: receiver that that defense is tough all the way around,

798
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 1: no doubt. So thus your Latavius Murray and your Amari

799
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 1: Cooper's of the world on high alert. Uh the Seattle

800
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 1: Seahawks defense taken on Dallas are the second least generous.

801
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 1: Here's third, though, and I was surprised by this. The

802
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles against the run, but they have been tremendous

803
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: against the run. The Steelers, again, they've been gashed through

804
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 1: the air, but on the ground they've been you know,

805
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 1: I don't know. Again, I don't know if it's surprisingly tough,

806
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 1: because sometimes these fp A numbers they don't tell you

807
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: how good a defense or how bad a defense actually is.

808
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 1: I remember a couple of years ago when we saw

809
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:45,439
Speaker 1: what was it, Atlanta, uh, just getting destroyed through the air.

810
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 1: It forced offensive coordinates to just throw the ball a lot,

811
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 1: meaning running backs didn't get a lot of work. Uh

812
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: So the f PAS against running backs for Atlanta that

813
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: particular year was somewhere in the middle of the pack.

814
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 1: It's not that they were good, though, it's just that

815
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,279
Speaker 1: the running backs weren't being utilized. But I mean, I

816
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: think that one of the things that benefits Steelers too

817
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 1: is they played a banged up Carlos Hide They played

818
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: the Rams without Todd Gurley helps. They played the Chargers,

819
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,400
Speaker 1: who don't have a like a dangerous running back threat.

820
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: They played a game against the Cardinals where they got

821
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 1: abused through the air, but they forced turnovers and then

822
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 1: the Cardinals didn't have a chance to run. So, like

823
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:26,880
Speaker 1: all of the kind of game script, things stacked in

824
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,879
Speaker 1: their favor. But they are pretty good against the run. Still.

825
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 1: That's not to take that away from them, but I

826
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: mean that's probably benefiting why they're so high, highly ranked

827
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 1: in the FBA all right, in terms of the wide

828
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 1: receiver position. Kansas City, it's like money in the bank, dude,

829
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 1: if you have a wide receiver playing Kansas City, money

830
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: in stardom, bank starom. Start them start um. Baltimore also

831
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: has just been getting destroyed through the air. They start them,

832
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 1: start um. Malcolm Floyd is an interesting deep sleeper name there,

833
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: very deep. What's the trouble is Steve Johnson's coming back though,

834
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 1: and he's starting to more. Look he got it. He

835
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: got eight targets in his first game back from the

836
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: hamstring injury this past week. So that's a lot. It's good,

837
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 1: it's a healthy amount. I'd feel good about starting him.

838
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,400
Speaker 1: The Forts are the third most generous they play St. Louis.

839
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: It's a big reason why stone Quol Tavon Austin is

840
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:17,800
Speaker 1: gonna on the danger zone. Now. I just I just

841
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: want to pump the brakes on this one. And I

842
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 1: say this knowing that the forty Niners are terrible. They are,

843
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 1: they are awful. Have you seen Nick Foles? I mean really,

844
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 1: but like in person lately or like at the mean

845
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:32,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I know he's kind of like a you know,

846
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:37,279
Speaker 1: Napoleon Dynamite doppelganger. But I just watched them and it's

847
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: almost like it's almost like the Rams offense holds a

848
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:44,240
Speaker 1: grudge against the forward past, like maybe the forward past

849
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 1: dated it's a girlfriend, and they just can't get over it.

850
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 1: I mean, they have so many weapons, they have all

851
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 1: these wide receivers on this team and guys who can

852
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,439
Speaker 1: get open, but it's just it seems like it's so

853
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 1: hard for them to throw the football forward. And I

854
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 1: want to hive on Austin to be asleeper this week.

855
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:02,840
Speaker 1: I have agonized all week long about calling Tavon Austin

856
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: a sleeper, and then I go back to just watching

857
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,280
Speaker 1: Nick Foles erratically spray the football all over the field,

858
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 1: and I get the sads. I got you, I do

859
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 1: you don't believe it? I just I want to. I

860
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,760
Speaker 1: just even against the forty Niners, I just I just can't.

861
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: All right, So there you go that Marcus must not

862
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: feel good if he's not even willing to start somebody

863
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:25,919
Speaker 1: against the fort team. Tampa Bay is the fourth worst.

864
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 1: They play Atlanta. That's gonna be I mean Atlanta, Julio,

865
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,959
Speaker 1: Oh boy, it's gonna be good. Uh in the bottom. Uh.

866
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 1: You look at Seattle. That surprises no one. So you

867
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 1: know at Dallas, but Seattle it's a little bit more

868
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:40,919
Speaker 1: generous on the road than they are at home. They're

869
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 1: just I mean you can't get to him at home.

870
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 1: But but yeah, so Seattle on the road at Dallas,

871
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 1: if you still have Terence Williams, I think, but you

872
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 1: don't want coming back. What's an interesting one is the

873
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 1: Broncos against the Packers. Yeah, what do you do there?

874
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:02,439
Speaker 1: They're the second least generous against the wind know what, well,

875
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, um and I have this uh

876
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:08,439
Speaker 1: in my startment sideam column. Yeah no, well Aaron Rodgers, guys,

877
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 1: I don't care who he's playing, he's you're starting him,

878
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. But Randall Cobb now number one, his

879
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,240
Speaker 1: last few games have not been good. As a Randall

880
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,399
Speaker 1: Cobb owner, I know this all too well. Um. If

881
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 1: you look at the wide receivers that the Broncos have

882
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,800
Speaker 1: faced this year, Jeremy Macklin, Steve Smith, Calvin Johnson, and

883
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 1: Mary Cooper all held the fewer than eight Fantasy points

884
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 1: um the opponent's top fantasy wide receiver against the Broncos

885
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: this year, averaging seven and a half points a game.

886
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: So if you have depth at wide receiver, UM, Randall

887
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 1: Cobb maybe finds his way onto your bench this week.

888
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,800
Speaker 1: If you're in a two wide out flex league, I

889
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:52,439
Speaker 1: don't know how you bench them. But this is an

890
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 1: awful matchup. And there are three big name wide receivers

891
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 1: this week with awful matchups. Cobb being number one, a

892
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,799
Speaker 1: Marii Coop were being number two in my pal t

893
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 1: Y Hilton being number three, Carolina there at the bottom.

894
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: Very hard to sit any one of those three guys,

895
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 1: but almost on the numbers also almost impossible. It is

896
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,320
Speaker 1: it is, I mean, yeah, it's you gotta you would

897
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 1: hope if you're a Packers wide receiver owner that all

898
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: their wide receivers were dinged up to. That's part of

899
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 1: why Cobbs struggled, and he was he was getting double teamed.

900
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 1: He was just getting blanketed. But this is this is

901
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: about the defense, right all right? No, so I'm saying,

902
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: you hope, you hope they got a little healthier, and

903
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: they do have number twelve under there. But I'm with you.

904
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 1: I mean, as even as a Packer fan, if you

905
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,440
Speaker 1: have the depth, I would probably not why. I mean,

906
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:37,360
Speaker 1: listen to these numbers. He's gonna get He's getting to

907
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 1: Josh Norman treatment. The Panthers have given up twenty two catches,

908
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 1: two yards and no touchdowns to number one wide receivers

909
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 1: this year. Listen that you know Calvin Johnson had two

910
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 1: twenty yards in a game. I mean, like this is

911
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,319
Speaker 1: for the whole season so far. They don't give up

912
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 1: points to wide receivers. Uh and more to the point,

913
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:00,120
Speaker 1: number one wide receivers. I have t Y in our

914
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,359
Speaker 1: fantasy live league and I'm trying to figure out where

915
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if I could bench him still, um,

916
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,400
Speaker 1: I would almost bench t Y if I had him,

917
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 1: because Josh is a tough. Josh Norman basically came out

918
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:14,760
Speaker 1: and said he's shadowing t Y Hill. That's like getting

919
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 1: the Black Death. And so if you have Dante Moncrief,

920
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 1: you can start him with a little more confidence. I

921
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: would agree, But Josh Josh Norman has been phenomenal. I mean, look, anytime,

922
00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:30,600
Speaker 1: anytime these high profile and Josh Norman is getting there.

923
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 1: But anytime these high profile cornerbacks shut guys down, it's

924
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: a it's a complete team effort, There's no question about it. Uh,

925
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 1: their defensive front is just it's nasty man Um and

926
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 1: Pim Tilman on the other side playing admirably as well.

927
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean they're playing in that defense is

928
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: playing in concert. There's just no question about it. But

929
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 1: if I have t Y, I don't know, man, I

930
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 1: just don't know if I could play him. Even in

931
00:46:56,640 --> 00:47:00,200
Speaker 1: a two wide out flex league, you got four got

932
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: four teams off and um to me like so in

933
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:06,319
Speaker 1: our league, for example, I'm deep at wide receiver. But

934
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: I mean I've got a couple of guys on a

935
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: by So basically it's okay, you played Travis Benjamin or

936
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 1: you play t Y Hilton, and I can't put Benjamin

937
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 1: in over Hill. I can't do it. Well, yeah, I

938
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 1: just can't do it. And a lot of people out

939
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:20,440
Speaker 1: there are not going to be able to find a

940
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 1: wide receiver on waivers that they have more faith in

941
00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:26,360
Speaker 1: than t Y Hilton, even against Josh Norman. I mean, honestly,

942
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 1: t Y t Y hasn't really been great yet. One

943
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 1: fifty and two touchdowns last week. That's also because dB

944
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 1: falled out twice on those two touches, which kind of

945
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,160
Speaker 1: leads me. By the way I had this theory, I

946
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 1: have been kicking around. Um we we've pretty much hit

947
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,800
Speaker 1: the midway point of the season, right, So I've started

948
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 1: to put together my own list for this new award

949
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 1: that I have, the Mark Boulger Award. The Mark Bulger Award,

950
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 1: the Mark Boulder Award is the way I'm gonna start

951
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 1: to hand this out to the fantasy quarterback who succeeds

952
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:02,440
Speaker 1: in spite of himself. And right now, Andrew luck is

953
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 1: the leader in the clubhouse for the Mark Boulder where

954
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 1: because Mark Boulder the typical Mark Boulder line, I had

955
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,600
Speaker 1: him in fantasy for a number of years. It was

956
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,680
Speaker 1: the like the three thirty five three touchdown, two interceptions

957
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 1: he would throw the two picks early. Then he would

958
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 1: like throw a bunch of yards and a couple of

959
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 1: touchdowns to try to get the Rams back into it.

960
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 1: In genally wasn't enough. But you know so, Andrew Luck

961
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,960
Speaker 1: is there, which is affecting t Y Hilton some of

962
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: the other nominees right now. Uh. EJ Manual is in

963
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: the running for the Mark Boulder Award. Uh Peyton will

964
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 1: I can't see Peyton man because he doesn't see Blake Bortles.

965
00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 1: Portles is definitely, Yeah, he's definitely. He is like the

966
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,759
Speaker 1: post your boy for how fantasy and reality or come

967
00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 1: don't mix, right, they don't mix. So yeah, I'm I'm

968
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:48,240
Speaker 1: slowly compiling a list of nominees for the Mark Boulder Award.

969
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:49,479
Speaker 1: At the end of the season. I think I'm gonna

970
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna crown, So I like it. Atlanta around him,

971
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:58,480
Speaker 1: Atlanta has been sneakily tough against wide receivers as well,

972
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:00,400
Speaker 1: at least from a fantasy perspective. Even they got a

973
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:04,279
Speaker 1: couple of games and teams try to run on them

974
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,440
Speaker 1: because they can't they can't swer out the run um

975
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 1: meaning um Mike Evans has a tough matchup at least

976
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,839
Speaker 1: on paper against the Atlanta Falcons. I don't know, man,

977
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,200
Speaker 1: I want to ask you guys about Mike Evans because

978
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 1: I'm actually really really high on him. Um James matchup

979
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,400
Speaker 1: that was starting to develop. The matchup is bad. But

980
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:25,440
Speaker 1: who are they throwing him to right He's it's the

981
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 1: Jackson's He's like the only guy right now. I mean,

982
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if Austin Sperians Jenkins is gonna Yeah.

983
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,960
Speaker 1: So like literally Mike Mike Evans over under twenty targets,

984
00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:39,319
Speaker 1: like serious question, you know, like the dead serious you

985
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 1: know that's that's a great number. You know how you

986
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:44,880
Speaker 1: talking about volume plays for running backs? Yeah, this is

987
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 1: really is. But like like I'm dead serious. Over under

988
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,920
Speaker 1: twenty targets for Mike, I'm gonna say, but not by

989
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 1: a lot. I can say like eight teens, not by

990
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 1: a lot. Eighteen was the number I was thinking of

991
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,080
Speaker 1: because Winston has had he's developing, but he's had kind

992
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: of like a weird tunnel vision alternating games depending on

993
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,879
Speaker 1: the wide receiver. That's it's not going to Dante Die

994
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 1: or whatever. That that tunnel vision is going to Mike

995
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 1: Evans this week sneak peak for those of you who

996
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:12,799
Speaker 1: watch a Fantasy Live on Sundays with Michael Fabion Adam

997
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:18,240
Speaker 1: Rank and is he coming back? He's back, right, Um, danger,

998
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:22,480
Speaker 1: don't pick Dante died. That's that's that's real. I'm going.

999
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 1: I mean, look, he was so deep last week that

1000
00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:29,759
Speaker 1: I didn't even notice spelled the dude's name because he's

1001
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,359
Speaker 1: got like he's got a ease in it. He went

1002
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 1: all in strange places. Yeah, he went to the Christian

1003
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: Michael school of spelling names. All right, Well should we

1004
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,239
Speaker 1: jump into some of these deep waiver places? Get out

1005
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,720
Speaker 1: of here because we got bab's gotta get on television

1006
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:47,839
Speaker 1: laders all right, Uh, NFL dot com slash deep dive

1007
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:53,040
Speaker 1: correct um running back as we mentioned, terrifying right now. Uh,

1008
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 1: some these are all deeper stashes. None of these guys

1009
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 1: will Aside from like theoretic, you could probably play him

1010
00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:00,000
Speaker 1: this week if you were desperate. But Brandon Oliver's name

1011
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,320
Speaker 1: to watch that San Diego Backfield, I like it or not?

1012
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 1: High on Melvin Gordon Olways getting getting a bunch of touches. Uh,

1013
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:07,439
Speaker 1: he could sneak in War one. I didn't write about.

1014
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:09,800
Speaker 1: That was an overset on my part was Chris Polk. Actually,

1015
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 1: um Alfred Blue is the top got to pick up

1016
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 1: with Arian Foster going down, But Chris Polk has gotten

1017
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 1: He's better in the passing game than Blue. And as

1018
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: we've seen, the Texans have a knack for getting down

1019
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 1: by a lot of punts and then needing to pass

1020
00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:24,120
Speaker 1: the ball and have a check down. So Chris Polk

1021
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,719
Speaker 1: is a good name, especially in PPR. Scoop him up

1022
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 1: and stash him for later. Bang Bang Bang, Chicken and

1023
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:33,839
Speaker 1: shrimp and Robert Turban Like the Cleveland backfield, we don't

1024
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 1: really know what's happening right now. They scooped up Robert

1025
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 1: Turbin was like uh injured for them for a while,

1026
00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:39,759
Speaker 1: and now he's coming and he's seen like as many

1027
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 1: carries and been better than I say at CROL. So

1028
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 1: say I would say that Mike Petton hates your fantasy team,

1029
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:46,359
Speaker 1: but I'm not sure that he really likes his own

1030
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 1: team all so he's this is much deeper league stash

1031
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:53,920
Speaker 1: if you're in a ten team, like, don't waste the

1032
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 1: bench spot on Robert Turbin right now, but his name

1033
00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:57,959
Speaker 1: to keep an eye on. Willie Snead is only owned

1034
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 1: in like eighteen percent of NFL dot Com That is

1035
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,879
Speaker 1: criminally low that I gotta be honest with you, he's

1036
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:05,920
Speaker 1: the best wide receive runs. I love NFL dot COM's

1037
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,520
Speaker 1: fantasy game. I don't believe in some of our our

1038
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 1: numbers are some of our data is a little a

1039
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 1: little off if you if you that's creative. Some of

1040
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,719
Speaker 1: the other leagues we we you know we use it,

1041
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 1: but um, yeah, it's it's a little creative. I will

1042
00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:25,680
Speaker 1: I will just I will leave it. I don't think that. Yeah,

1043
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,919
Speaker 1: in competitive leagues, Willie Sneak's gone. I think it. Competitive leagues,

1044
00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 1: Marvin Jones has gone too. I don't know. They were

1045
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 1: just on there by. He's been kind of spotty, but

1046
00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,319
Speaker 1: good matchup this week to where if you need because

1047
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: of those teams that are on a buy, if you

1048
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:40,439
Speaker 1: need a plug and play wide receiver three or a flag.

1049
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 1: I love him. This week went from deep dive to

1050
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:47,759
Speaker 1: like must have to now he's regressed back to he

1051
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 1: would have been if I I honest to god, when

1052
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 1: I was doing the regular waiver wire thought he was

1053
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 1: owned in too many high enough percentage leagues where he

1054
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,440
Speaker 1: wouldn't even qualify. And then I was scrolling through and

1055
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 1: I was like, what, so I had to I had

1056
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 1: to shoot him onto this list, just just to be safe.
