Oh, by the way, ladies, 46 00:02:51,919 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: the phone number six five one nine five three to six. Now, 47 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: when you're twenty plus years of doing the show, charges 48 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: a guy ever called in after maybe like taking himself 49 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: or hit himself in the junk to know. More commonly, 50 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: it's the six year old girl who's trying to in fact, 51 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: in classic fashion, trying to find out if her dad 52 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: if she quote should start chris fulm falla And so 53 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: that's you know, that's the tricky one, remember, because it's 54 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: so adorable. So with a six year old it's pretty cute. 55 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: We don't encourage that because seriously, we want we want 56 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: more women to play. We love the women play. This 57 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: is a great opportunity for us to um to help 58 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: make a comfortable environment for our female listeners. Before we 59 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: dive into all of the meat of the show, let 60 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: me mention this ran into this on Twitter and was 61 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: surprised that this is even a thing. But there are 62 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: a handful of people out there. When the Deshaun Watson 63 00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: news broke, was it Wednesday, I think it was Wednesday. 64 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: On Wednesday, some people immediately as the news was breaking 65 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: traded away to Shaun Watson at full value, not disclosing 66 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: the injury. That's a d bag move right there. Commissioners, 67 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: we talked about this all the time about how you 68 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: you know, we we think you should basically never veto 69 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: a trade unless it's extraordinary circumstance that has nothing to 70 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: do with the judgment of the two players. But this 71 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: is a scenario where Commissioners, you can jump in and 72 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: you can undo that trade. Because if you're trading somebody 73 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: who is hurt or maybe hurt and you just have 74 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: you happen to find out before the recipient of the trade, 75 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: that's not that's not a legitimate trade. You have to 76 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: disclose that. Also, the trades that are already you know, 77 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: hanging out there that had been proposed with Watson involved, 78 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: and then that same thing, yes, the same thing, that's 79 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: a great point, same exact thing. So commissioners, yes, you 80 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: and you can get involved. Oh, we're already getting our 81 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:08,239 Speaker 1: first our first pictures from deer hunters in the deer 82 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: stand in the middle of the fields and forests. We 83 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: love it. That's fun um at Paul Charchion. By the ways, 84 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: the Twitter feed for that Commissioners, you can get involved 85 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: on the Watson deal and you can undo those trades, 86 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: and you should. When I said this on Twitter, outrage 87 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: from people whore like caveat emptor you know, if you're 88 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: the buyer, it's your job to make sure that everybody 89 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: in this deal is healthy and you should be googling 90 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: it and blah blah blah, what what is wrong with you? 91 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: That's absurd. People that help trades that are already sitting 92 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: right and trades that are already out there or whatever else. 93 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: You don't hit the submit button until you've done your research. 94 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 1: I think that's that's not that's not accurate. People have 95 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: jobs and lives and you can't always know. All right, 96 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: let's move on plenty you get to in the course 97 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 1: of the show. We've got take a chance on me, 98 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: five tough questions, premature speculation, Lightning, and we'll break down 99 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: all of the matchups light week, which is great. We 100 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: love that part um and ladies, we've talked about taking 101 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: your calls today just the the reality is that will 102 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: probably happen in about forty minutes. So we already have 103 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: a couple of a couple of female colors on hold. Howe, 104 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,679 Speaker 1: I hope you will continue to hold, but the reality 105 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: is that that's probably coming up. In the third segment 106 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: of the show, we begin with our first matchup of 107 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: the day, and that is Falcons taking on the Panthers. 108 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: Scott Falcon's offense obviously has been extremely frustrating and now 109 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: they face a very good defense in the Panthers. So 110 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like this is an opportunity to get healthy. 111 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: It's yeah, it's rough. I don't like this matchup at 112 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: all for really anybody. But I am giving a se 113 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: grade to Ryan in the passing game. He couldn't get 114 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: out of his funk against the Jets. The Panthers are 115 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: top five against the past. It's gonna be tough. They've 116 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: They've held seven of their eight quarterbacks they've faced under 117 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: two and thirty yards. Brady the only one over that, 118 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: but Matt Ryan has had at least two on thirty 119 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: and a touchdown every game. He's been fairly consistent lee 120 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: average this year, so I'm still going to give him 121 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: a starting grade. Julio Jones, He's had at least seventy 122 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: yards in five last six games, but no opposing receiver 123 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: has been above ninety on the Panthers, so I think 124 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: maybe he's gonna land right in there. I'm giving him 125 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: a B grade. I I'm still a little positive about 126 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: Jones this week. I don't know that he scores though. 127 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: Don't forget what was it three hundred yards in his 128 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: last game against Well It was actually the that was 129 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: the first of the two games. That was the game 130 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: in which ben ad been Wickery was summarily fired. After 131 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: the game and we we we started a whole new 132 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: adjective or a whole new now we have been That's right, 133 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: Julio ben wickerized him. Wow. Yeah. So also Mohammed Sannu, 134 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: I'm giving a B grade to mostly because he's going 135 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: to be in the slot going up against captain Munerland, 136 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: who's terribly graded by PFF, and he's got a five 137 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: inch height advantage averaging eight and a half argets and 138 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: seventy yards per games since he's come back into the lineup. 139 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: I like that matchup. I thought the Vikings might miss 140 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: captain Manlin more than it turns out they have. That 141 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: was I think that. I think the front office got 142 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: it right. Yep, I do too, Hooper, I'm I'm putting 143 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: on the bench. I said last week he's been hot 144 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: and cold. This week he gets a top ten defense 145 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: against that ends Freeman. I would give him a C grade, 146 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: but I know that you have Jordan Howard, Melvin, Gordon McKinnon, 147 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: Bell Pats running backs all on by, So I'm gonna 148 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: give him a low B grade against a very tough defense. 149 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: But they haven't allowed to running back over ninety total yards. 150 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: But Freeman's gaining seventeen touches a game and the Panthers 151 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: are allowing five receptions for a game, So maybe there's 152 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: some Maybe there's just enough to get him to a 153 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: low B. There. Coleman, I'm probably benching, but I'm probably bench. 154 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: We're letting the fact that it's a brutal bye week 155 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: affect our ranking. It's terrible it is. In a full week, 156 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: I think Coleman would probably be an exactly because he 157 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: is getting ten touches at game, and he does even 158 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: though he hasn't cut a lot of passes recently. He 159 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: does get pass catching, so maybe he has just enough 160 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: to get you a CE this week. Alright, on the 161 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: Panthers side, Newton man. The Falcons defense is holding quarterbacks 162 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: to two yards. Over the last five, They've only allowed 163 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: one yard game. But I think Newton can get enough 164 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: rushing even though he's only averaging two game over his 165 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: last three, I think he can get enough rushing to 166 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: give you a C grade there. Uh. Over to the 167 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: passing game and receiver Samuel and Shephard, I'm benching. I 168 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: don't know what their role is going to be now 169 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: with with Benjamin gone, I don't know where the volume 170 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: is actually gonna go. I'm also benching Dixon twenty six 171 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 1: yards a game over the last three in Atlanta's top 172 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: ten against That ends. No thanks, Bunches, I this is 173 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: isn't This is the only time you're ever gonna hear 174 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: me say this. I hate I cannot stand Bunches, but 175 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: I might give him a grade this week. I know 176 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: I want to give him a B plus, but you 177 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: you don't are no pluses, and there are no pluses 178 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,959 Speaker 1: in this show. Yeah, there's no crying in baseball, there's 179 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: no pluses. And still he was already the target leader 180 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: on the team with eight point three targets per game 181 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: with Greg Olson out, so he's gonna draw top coverage. 182 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: But Atlanta has given up a touchdown to the number 183 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: one receiver in sixth straight. Fungus is the red zone 184 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: threat here and they've allowed sixty yards to three straight 185 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: number one receivers. I think he's just gonna get ten 186 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: plus targets and have the volume. I'm benching Stewart because 187 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: he's terrible this year. I don't care that he scored 188 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: last week. McCaffrey. Atlanta gets torched by pass catching running backs. 189 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: That's why I was all over Terry Cohen week one 190 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: on fanball dot com articles. It still holds true. They're 191 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: bad last year, they're bad this year. There McCaffrey, that's 192 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 1: his own. Atlanta is allowing seven catches and fifty five 193 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: yards receiving the running backs. McCaffrey. I'm giving an a 194 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: grade to all right, nice um. I like McCaffrey a lot. 195 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: He's inside my top ten overall at the running back position. 196 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,319 Speaker 1: This week, Bengals take on the Jaguars, and this is 197 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: a super dicey matchup, lowest grade of the year for 198 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: for A J. Green. For me, the Bengals have arguably 199 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: the worst offensive line of football and the Jaguars have 200 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: the most sacks in the league by a mile. This 201 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,839 Speaker 1: feels like a very dicey matchup for the passing game 202 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 1: to me. Brian, you see it that way? Oh yeah, 203 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: no doubt. This is one of those times or A. J. 204 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: Green definitely doesn't get an A. I'm still going to 205 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: give him a B here just because he is an 206 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: elite talent. But yeah, this is basically the worst matchup 207 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: for wide receivers going up against the Jaguars. Jalen Ramsey 208 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: and A. J. Bouyer probably the best cornerback duo in 209 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: the NFL right now. But Green is elite. Like I said, 210 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: he does have several inches of height advantage on each guy, 211 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: and uh elite wide receivers faired okay against the Jaguars. 212 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins had seven for fifty five yards and a touchdown. 213 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown caught ten balls for a hundred fifty seven yards, 214 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: So some hope for Green, not for the other wide 215 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: receivers though they are on the bench. The Jaguars have 216 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: allowed one opposing wide receiver touchdown all year. That was Hopkins, 217 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 1: and they're allowing less than ten catches and a hundred 218 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: and ten yards per game to wide receivers as a whole. 219 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: That is a awful. So they're on the bench, as 220 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: is Tyler Croft. Uh he will get Sea grades in 221 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: the future and has in the past. Uh is averaging 222 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 1: more than five targets over his last four games, has 223 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 1: scored three touchdowns in that span, but only one of 224 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: posing tight end it's top fifty yards against the Jaguars. 225 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: That was Delaney Walker in Week two, and only one 226 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: Titan has scored against Jacksonville in their last four. So 227 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: Croft is on the bench, as is Andy Dalton for 228 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: pretty much obvious reasons. Jacksonville has allowed four passing touchdowns 229 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: and seven games no quarterback has thrown for multiple touchdowns 230 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: and only one has topped two hundred twenty five yards 231 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: against the Jaguars this year. It's almost an auto bench 232 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: or any quarterback I've got, I've got Dalton below guys 233 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 1: like well, I think probably all of our take a 234 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: chance a mean quarterbacks. He's ranked like twenty three in 235 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: a in a in a week in which there are 236 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 1: six teams on by. It's that bad for Dalton. It's 237 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: it's that good for Joe Mixon this week though, probably 238 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: give him an A. The Jacksonville ranks dead last and 239 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: rushing yards allowed a hundred and sixty nine per game. UH, 240 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: it's no surprise. They are also dead last in d 241 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: v O d v O A against the run by 242 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: football outsiders. UH. Running backs have also exposed Jacksonville through 243 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: the air in recent weeks. Marlon Matt caught four passes 244 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 1: for forty yards. Levy on Bell caught ten passes. Low 245 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: Powell and Elijah McGuire combined for six catches sixty five yards. 246 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: Your boy Buck Allan caught five passes. Charge that's so yeah, 247 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 1: there's hope hope for mixing through the air here. UH. 248 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: Geo Bernard might snipe some of that pass work, but 249 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 1: he's still on the bench for me, as is Jeremy Hill. 250 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: You can find him on the bench like you find 251 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: Forrest Gump on the bench bus stop most weeks over 252 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville. Leonard four net practicing in full. That means 253 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: he's back to an automatic A grade. You start him 254 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: against eleven werewolves on steroids. UH. Cincinnati has allowed the 255 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: fourth most red zone touches to running backs in four 256 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: net is a ruler of those rushing opportunities when healthy 257 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: as he is right now. So sh wouldn't have been 258 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: eleven werewolves at midnight probably, But uh, I just scribbled 259 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: that down real quick. Okay, I mean, I'm just trying 260 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: to help you out here, But how can they can 261 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,079 Speaker 1: be on steroids at midnight during the full moon? Face, 262 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: I really want to play this thing out. Let's bake 263 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: that in much of an auto start letard for it is, Yes, 264 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: where was at midnight on Royds now cycle? Alan Hearns, 265 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: Mark Eastley and d D. Westbrook all on the bench? 266 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: Um Hearns is going to play? Mark east Lee might 267 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: might not. D D. Westbrook might might not. Um. All 268 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: I know is when you see t Y Hilton go 269 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: for two catches in fifteen yards against the Bengals, you're 270 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: not going to start any of these three. Uh. Just 271 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: the fun fact, Geronimo Allison, of all people, the only 272 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: wide receiver at to top seventy five yards against the 273 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: Bengals this year. And then water is wet, the sky 274 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: is blue, and Blake Portals is on the bench. Yes, 275 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: Ravens take on the Titans, and a handful of C 276 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: grades here for the Bengals, do not chase last week's 277 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 1: forty point uh explosion, in part because two of the 278 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: two of the touchdowns came from the defense and Joe 279 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: Flacco looks like he's gonna start, but he's been Fantasy 280 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: Football's worst starting quarterback by a mile, and when he's 281 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: on the bench. Jeremy Macklin from the passing game gets 282 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: a C grade, but as much as anything else, it's 283 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: just because everybody else is hurting, there's nobody else to 284 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: throw too. He does have a He's got a tougher 285 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: matchup out of the slot against Tennessee slack cornerback Logan Ryan, 286 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: but because of all the injuries, they've actually split him 287 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: out wide a little bit, and if Mike Walls doesn't go, 288 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: which could happen, then he gets a much more favorable 289 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: matchup on the outside against the Dory Jackson and Sean Simms, 290 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: both below average cornerbacks. So a C grade barely for 291 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: Jeremy Macklin. C grades for the running game. I know 292 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: you want to chase. Alex Collins is a big explosion 293 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: from last week, but this team has been oddly reticent 294 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: to give him the ball despite his league leading average 295 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: of six yards per gary. Fortunately, Collins dominated last week 296 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: and you've gotta figure he's gotta show get a few 297 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: more looks this week. But the matchups brutal. Tennessee is 298 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: allowing the seventh fewest rushing yards, the fourth fewest yards 299 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: per carry, just three point six. No runner against Tennessee 300 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: is top seventy seven yards and no runner has scored 301 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: a touchdown since Week four against Tennessee. Brutal matchup for 302 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: Alex Collins, but you still start him with a C grade. 303 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: Bunk Gallen is a PPR option only he's managed at 304 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: least four receptions in five games this year. He faces 305 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: the Titans defense that has allowed the six most receiving 306 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: yards to backs, and in their last game Tennessee before 307 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: last week's by Cleveland, runners total ninety two receiving yards total. 308 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: So there's an angle for bunk Gallen right there. Let's 309 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: go to the Tennessee side. It's only a handful of 310 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: SEA grades and that's it. C grades for the two runners, 311 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: de Marco Murray and Derrick Henry. Unfortunately, the Ravens defensive 312 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: tackle Brandon Williams is back, and that means they've stopped 313 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: serving up free one yard games to opposing runners. Uh. 314 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 1: Tennessee's offensive line is massively underachieving this year. They have 315 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: on paper like one of the three best offensive lines 316 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: in football, but they just aren't. They are not great 317 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: this year, and Murray and Henry are locked into Fantasy 318 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: Football's most frustrating time share. Normally, Murray gets a slide 319 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: edge over Henry because of his PPR potential, but the 320 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: Ravens are elite against running backs through the air. They're 321 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: giving up the fourth fewest receptions to runners. No running 322 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 1: back has scored through the air against the Ravens this year. 323 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 1: So just ce grades here for Murray and Henry. Let's 324 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: go to the passing game. C grades abound here as 325 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 1: well well, actually just from just from Marcus Mariota C grade. 326 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: Last time we saw Mariota, he was going belly up 327 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: against the Browns, and now he faces a much tougher opponent. 328 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: The Ravens the number three past defense and yards allowed, 329 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: the number four past defense and touchdowns allowed. They've also 330 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: allowed just three passing scores total in the last five games, 331 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: so brutal matchup for Mariota here it really only giving 332 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: him a C grade because six teams are on by 333 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:00,919 Speaker 1: and I know you're in a pinch and you just 334 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: lost to Shaun Watson, and it's the only reason he 335 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,959 Speaker 1: gets to see. All his receivers are on the bench. Matthews, Davis, 336 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: Deck are his wide receivers. The Ravens have yet to 337 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: allow wide receiver to top ninety five yards all season. 338 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: They ranked fourth in yards to wide receivers allowed, second 339 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: and touchdowns allowed to wide receivers. I can't recommend any 340 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 1: of them here. They haven't allowed a wide receiver touchdown 341 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: in three straight games. Decker, Davis, Matthews all on the bench. 342 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: What about the Laney Walker, you may ask, Well, he 343 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: hasn't scored all season, and he's a game time decision 344 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: with a foot injury. So and the Ravens have allowed 345 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: a league high six tight end touchdowns, but three of 346 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: those six were that crazy London game where they gave 347 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: up three of them to Marcedes Lewis inexplicably in one game. 348 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 1: So I don't know if they're really that bad. Now, 349 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: if Walker doesn't go, then you could pivot to his backup. 350 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna say this right, JOHNU. Smith. I 351 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: think it's John. I'm a Joni guy, but I guess 352 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: I'll I'll fix that. John, go with John Oh John Smith. 353 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: Now here's your weird factory to the day. John H. 354 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 1: Smith currently leads all Tennessee receivers and touchdowns right now, 355 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: and he hasn't scored in four games. He leads with 356 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: two so you could pivot there if you're looking for 357 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: a cheap fan ball DFS angle, or you're just in 358 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: a desperate spot for at the tight end position. We'll 359 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: take a break when we come back. Take a chance 360 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: on me. Nine players not normally in your starting lineup. 361 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: We'll tell you who they are when we come back. 362 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 1: It was just a matter of time. Sooner or later 363 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: a listener would send in their own version of take 364 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: a chance on me, And that has happened. Like on 365 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: the key tar. No, this is some synthesizer, but it's 366 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 1: got a very eighties to me. This has got an 367 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: eighties John Carpenter feel to it. Do you remember The 368 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: Escape from New York, The Thing, Halloween? All those epic 369 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: John Carpenter movies from the eighties which he did his 370 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,919 Speaker 1: own soundtracks. By the way, you don't see directors do 371 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 1: their own soundtracks anymore, and probably rightfully. So take a chance. 372 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: I mean, thank you listener, Mike by the way, um, 373 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: take a chance. I me nine players not normally in 374 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: starting lineup. Let's go to the quarterback position. Many of 375 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: these available on the waiver wire, and god you need it. 376 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,400 Speaker 1: This week we begin right here. Scott Fish quarterback. I'm 377 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: gonna go with Tom Savage. Oh yeah, yeah, he's He's 378 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 1: just got a great matchup this week. The Colts have 379 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: allowed either three yards passing or multiple touchdowns to every 380 00:20:54,480 --> 00:21:00,160 Speaker 1: quarterback they faced. It's in Tom Savage is three career games. 381 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: He's played the Jags twice end of last season when 382 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: they were very good and to start this season, and Cincinnati. 383 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: At the end of last year, Cincinnati held six quarterbacks 384 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 1: under two hundred yards. I'm not a hundred percent positive yet. 385 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: That Savage is just terrible. He's got a couple of 386 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: great weapons. It's just such a good match up here. Okay, 387 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: Scott Fish, Hi won't let you down, Humble Rusty. I'll 388 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: get it better next week. Alright, Well, I have, unfortunately 389 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: brock Osweiler, who now plays with the Broncos, which comes 390 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: courtesy of the Browns. Or the Texans Satan himself. I 391 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 1: don't know who is paying his salary at this point, 392 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: and it's not Denver. But get this, here's a stat 393 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 1: for you. The last time Brock Osweiler put on a 394 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 1: Broncos jersey, they won the Super Bowl. Even play in 395 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,479 Speaker 1: that game. But don't let that stop you, all right, 396 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 1: in all somewhat seriousness, in non Northeastern conditions, when playing 397 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: San Francisco, opposing quarterback where the temperature decks below, opposing 398 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that've actually done pretty well against Philly, uh, chasing 399 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: points in Philadelphia Kirk Cousins at three hundred three yards 400 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: and three touchdowns, Carson Palmer to one. Eli Manning had 401 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: three hundred and sixty six yards and three touchdowns. Osweiler 402 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: is a little mobile too, Don't forget when he's not 403 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,479 Speaker 1: running out of town, uh, you know, dodging bricks being 404 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: thrown atam or whatever. Cam Newton ran for eleven eleven 405 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: times or seven one yards and a touchdown against the 406 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: Eagles in Week six. Philly also owns the highest opponent 407 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: passing play for senterge, a whopping seventy of the time 408 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,479 Speaker 1: opponents pass against them. So Brock Osweiler. Yeah, I might 409 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: help you out this week. All right, Jacobe Prisette going 410 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: up against Houston, I'll take the precent side of the 411 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 1: of the of this matchup as opposed to Scott Fitch 412 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 1: a quarterback battle. At the quarterback battle, only New England 413 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: has allowed more fantasy points to opposing passers than the Texans, 414 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: who have yielded two or more touchdowns to quarterbacks and 415 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: four of their last seven games. While percent is somewhat 416 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: limited as a pastor, which I think we can all agree, 417 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: he is tied for the league lead with three rushing scores. 418 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: He is a threat to hurd of Houston defense that 419 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 1: surrenders over twenty one rushing yards per game to quarterbacks. 420 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 1: Let's let's play for the rushing angle of nothing else 421 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: with Pert Sette. Let's go to the running back position, Scott, 422 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: all right, I'm going with the Orleans dark On. Every 423 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: running back that's had at least twelve touches against the 424 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: Rams has had at least ninety yards and a score. 425 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,719 Speaker 1: Dark was probably gonna get that. He had twenty two 426 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: against Denver. He's led the team in his tempts three 427 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: straight weeks. All Right, I'm staying with the Broncos and 428 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: going to Vante Booker at the Eagles. UM, here's the stat. 429 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: Over Denver's last three games. C J Anderson has one 430 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: rush from the red zone inside the red zone, DeVante 431 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: Booker had three runs inside the ten yard line last 432 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 1: week and scored on one of them, scored on one 433 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: of them. And during that same three games, fan Booker 434 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: has catched totals of four or three and three. The 435 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: Eagles have allowed over eight receptions pretty game to running 436 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 1: backs over their last three games. So Booker is gonna 437 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 1: get a decent amount of work here. It could help 438 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: you out. I like books he was, Yeah, he was. 439 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: He flashed in the preseason, looking better than I thought. 440 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: He has to look better than c J. That's a 441 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 1: savvy pickup. Andre Ellington dropped in mostly because he's been 442 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: hurt for the better part of a month. But remember 443 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: before his injury, he was averaging nine targets per game 444 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: and Adrian Peterson is not gonna it's not gonna take 445 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: receptions away from him. He goes up against San Francisco 446 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: and get this, the forty Niners dead last in receptions 447 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 1: allowed to running backs, receiving yards allowed to running backs, 448 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: receiving touchdowns to running backs. I want the running back 449 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: who's averaging nine targets a game, Andre Ellington. This week, 450 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: let's go to the receiver position, Scott. I'm going with 451 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: more of a dart throw here with Brandon Coleman. He 452 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 1: played sent of the snaps last week. Snead did not 453 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 1: get a target. He's a six ft six big play 454 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 1: threat that Breeze has been raving about. There's a chance 455 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 1: for a big play, all right. I'm going on Oakland 456 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: tight end Jared Cook at Miami. Opposing tight ends are 457 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: averaging more than eight and a half targets, six catches, 458 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: and fifty yards per game against the Dolphins, who have 459 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: snowflakes spinning in his Tunican grave right now, how bad 460 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: they are playing. Jared Cook has has also seen at 461 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: least five targets in every game but one this year, 462 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: and he's top six among tight ends in red zone targets. 463 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 1: The Dolphins have allowed a tight end touchdown on three 464 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: of their last four games, and in the one game 465 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: they did in Austin, Hooper had seven catches. So I 466 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: like Cook. Can we refer to the Dolphins home stadium 467 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: as the Tunican I like that I think that's pretty brilliant. 468 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 1: My receiver Tyke take a chance of me. Player is 469 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: Tyler Higbee. If you don't even know who he is, 470 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 1: I don't blame you. Um he is your Rams starting 471 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: tight end and he goes up against the Giants. Brian, 472 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 1: how are the Giants against tight ends awful? And that's 473 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: being generous. They are dead last against the tight ends 474 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 1: in yardage allowed? They have allowed a tight end touchdown 475 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: in eight consecutive weeks. How do you do that? How 476 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: do you give up a tight end touchdown in every 477 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: game of the year, which they have done? Higbee totally inconsistent, 478 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: wildly want some good games, some terrible ones, and absolutely invisible. 479 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 1: But if there's ever time to start him, it is 480 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: right now. When we come back, we'll dive back into 481 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 1: the matchups including Rams versus Giants. Will tell you if 482 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: you can get back on board with Jared Goff in 483 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: this passing game when we come back your distinct Fantasy 484 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 1: Football Weekly on the Fan, Welcome back to the show 485 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan.

So I here, Jared 492 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: goff had a tough game against the Jags and the 493 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: Seahawks and whatnot, But the Giants are the worst past 494 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: defense in the NFL since Week four, averaging allowing nearly 495 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: three thirty yards and two and a half touchdowns per 496 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: game to quarterbacks. Oh and guess what genera Jenkins is 497 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: now suspended. So that's gonna help out the wider's eivers, 498 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: especially Watkins quite a bit. For the wide receiver. I 499 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: give Goff an a I'm giving all the wide receivers 500 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 1: bees though they I think all of them. I love 501 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: the Watkins, I I like I like a lot of 502 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: the wide receivers, but they spread the ball around so much. 503 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: Watkins without Jenkins him right, but he's still just seeing 504 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,239 Speaker 1: four targets per game on the season, correct park as 505 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: he's seen all these number one cornerbacks. True, but there's 506 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: no Jenkins, so you know, typically the path of leash 507 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: resistances with the other guys. All right, continue, alright? Uh, 508 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 1: for Woods, he's the target leader. He's got five catches 509 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: and at least fifty five yards and four of his 510 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 1: last five games. I'm giving him be maybe these are 511 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:45,239 Speaker 1: all really high bees. And Cooper Cup is I know 512 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: the Cooper Cup is the guy I probably like the most. 513 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: I know you like Watkins. Cup is tied for third 514 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: in the NFL and red zone targets with eleven and 515 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 1: and Doug Baldwin just a couple of weeks ago from 516 00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 1: the slot torched the Giants. So Higbee was your take home. 517 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: And Gurley he has over a hundred twenty total yards 518 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: in four of his last five games, and every running 519 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,719 Speaker 1: back that's got at least twenty touches against the Giants 520 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 1: hundred thirty plus total yards. Yeah, Todd Gurley averaging nearly 521 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: twenty five a game. A grade there on the Giant side, 522 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: I'm benching Manning. I'm sorry, man, you go under a 523 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: hundred fifty passing yards two straight games and you play 524 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: a top ten past defense, I'm benching you. Shepherd. I'm 525 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: giving him a C grade because every wide receiver that's 526 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: had at least eight targets against the Rams has at 527 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: least eighty yards. I think he could sleep walk sleepwalk 528 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: into eight targets. Yeah, Evan Ingram, he has at least 529 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: four catches and at least forty yards and seven of 530 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: his eight games and he's been there in primary weapon 531 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: ten plus targets each the last few weeks. It's a 532 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: good defense against ted Ends, but he's getting so much volume. 533 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: Might give him a C and dark one was my 534 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: take home. Right, let's go to the Bucks in the Saints. 535 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: The normally playing against the Saints, it was just start 536 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: everybody in the passing game, but the Saints secondary has 537 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: suddenly gotten to be a legit and now Jamis Winson 538 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: is not a sure start here. What do you think? Yeah, 539 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: you can suddenly get legit when you're facing Mitch Trubisky 540 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: and Brett Huntley over the last So let's start with 541 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: Mike Evans. I'm giving him the easy A. Still Marshawn 542 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: Lattimore has gonna standout rookie at corner half, but at 543 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: six ft one two, he's about the size of one 544 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: of Mike Evans Teddy Bears. I think, so I still 545 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: like Evans in this matchup. I do like the Sean 546 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: Jackson as well. He'll see Ken Crawley, who's also played 547 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: very well at corner this year. But Jackson has been 548 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: more involved lately, with eight or more targets and three 549 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: of his last four games. And here's his career averages 550 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: indoors as they will be this week at the Superdome 551 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: reverence the Shawn Jackson. Shawn Jackson five catches ninety six 552 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: yards zero point seven touchdowns per game indoors, whereas outdoors 553 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: he has four catches sixty six yards and zero point 554 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: three touchdown this year. This is career he's never played inside, 555 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: not a lot, not as much as outdoors obviously, but 556 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: a decent enough sample size. You like Jackson on the 557 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: fast track, Let's just leave it at that, and wide 558 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: rep whide re super duos have burned the Saints digs 559 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: feeling Golden Tate Marvin Jones both had big games. So 560 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: I like Jackson and Evans Cameron Brad. I don't like 561 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: him as much, Gonna give him a see. New Orleans 562 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: is allowing you third few s yards two tight ends 563 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: this year, but tight end is just too thin to 564 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: bench the guy who was fourth in yards at the position. 565 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,479 Speaker 1: So you can start break but not O. J. Howard. 566 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: He is on the bench. Jamis Winston gonna give him 567 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: a B. Cam Newton, J. Cutler, Brett Hunley, Mitch Hubiski 568 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: all failed to throw a touchdown against New Orleans, but 569 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: Sam Bradford, Tom Brady and Matt Stafford each through for 570 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: three touchdowns against the Saints. Winston fits better with the 571 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: ladder there, so I like him this week only if 572 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 1: his shoulder holds up, So we'll cross our fingers there. 573 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: And Doug Martin also gets a BU. The Saints are 574 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: ranks twenty nine against the run by Football Outsiders and 575 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: have allowed a hundred yards and he touchdown to a 576 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: running back and back to back weeks. They've also allowed 577 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: the fifth most receptions running backs where Martin can catch 578 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: the ball when needed. Uh. Going over to these Saints, 579 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: Drew Brees gets an all, let's just move on. Michael 580 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: Thomas gets an A as well. Thomas caught six balls 581 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: for nine gate yards and his loan meeting with Tampa 582 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: Bay last year. He has at least seven catches and 583 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: four of his last five games, and Tampa Bay is 584 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: ranked twenty seven against number one wide receivers by Football Outsiders. 585 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: Ted ginn not in A, almost in A, but i' 586 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: gonna give him a B. He should be the primary 587 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: beneficiary of Brent Grimes his absence. We will miss this game. Uh, 588 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: he'll see a lot of Ryan Smith will be making 589 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: only his second start at cornerback. Over his last three games, 590 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: again has five catches of twenty plus yards, and three 591 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: of those have gone for over forty. The Bucks are 592 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: allowing more than a hundred nine yards per game to 593 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: wide receivers, so Gain should continue to shine here, as 594 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: should Brandon Coleman. Scott's take a chance on me. Wide 595 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: receiver Willie Snead only saw four snaps last week, probably 596 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: won't be ramped up fully, So I do like Coleman, 597 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: Warden sneed here. Uh, Kobe Fleaner is on the bench 598 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: just because he he sucks, sucks, sucks so bad. I'm 599 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: sorry for that call a few weeks ago. Yeah, yeah, 600 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,719 Speaker 1: how about that? And then mark Ingram I'm gonna give 601 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: him an A. And Alvin Kamara almost in A, but 602 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: he's gonna get a B. Uh Ingram averaging twenty seven 603 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: touches per game, and the Bucks are allowing a hundred 604 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: and thirty four combo yards per game to opposing backs. 605 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: Ingram also scored twice in his last meeting against Tampa 606 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 1: Bay and Alaman Kamaras should eat through the air. Tampa 607 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: Bay is allowing seven catches and fifty four yards per 608 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: game to oppose and running backs. Yeah, we said it 609 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 1: last week, and it's starting to materialize. They can't keep 610 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,959 Speaker 1: using Ingram as a workhorse guy getting twenty seven touches 611 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: a game. Camara is gonna start picking up more touches. 612 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: The regression is coming. Washington takes on Seattle in Seattle, 613 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: tough matchup for the Redskins. I've got a handful of 614 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: Sea grades and that's it. Chris Thompson gets a C grade. 615 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: As good as he has been, by the way, averaging 616 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: one total yards per game since week two, he's still 617 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: kind of a matchup play. You've gotta find teams that 618 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: struggled to stop running backs out of the backfield, and 619 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: Seattle is not that team. They have a top five 620 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: ranking against running backs in catches allowed to running backs, 621 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: targets allowed to running backs, receiving yards to running backs, 622 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: and receiving touchdowns allowed to running backs. So I don't 623 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: much love Thompson here and he's just a C grade. 624 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: I'm keeping Rob Kelly on the bench, WHI always day 625 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: with running backs still playing hurt and he actually he could. 626 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: He's a sneaky game time decision. There's a scenario where 627 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: Kelly doesn't play in this game. Uh, he's had double 628 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 1: he hasn't had even double digit touches since Week two. 629 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: Just not getting enough work here. You could try to 630 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: gamble on the touchdown, but Seahawks are still a decent 631 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: enough run defense that I don't think you want to 632 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: start Rob Kelly. Let's go to the passing game. Kirk Cousins. 633 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: And by the way, this is this hurts all of them. 634 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 1: Offensive line devastated by injury. They're missing two starters for sure, 635 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: and probably three starters across the offensive line for the Redskins, 636 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: Jamison Crowder and Jordan's Jamison Crowder probably will not go. 637 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: Jordan Reid's already been ruled out. So Cousins is really 638 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: really short suited in this one. Only a C grade here, 639 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: and even that is a tentative C grade. Seattle secondary 640 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: did just get crushed by Deshaun Watson last week, but 641 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: note before that game they were averaging two D two 642 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: passing yards allowed and zero point eight passing touchdowns allowed. 643 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins not DeShawn Watson. This is a very tough matchup. 644 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: You could try to start Vernon Davis, He'll start in 645 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: place with Jordan Reed, but mom worrid, He's gonna have 646 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: to block because I don't have any lineman left. That's 647 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 1: a concern Seattle middle of the road tight end defense, 648 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: and so I show caution. I have a tentative S 649 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: grade on Vernon Davis. That's it. Josh Dockson is on 650 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: the bench. He's only averaging one and a half catches 651 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: per game. Let's go to Seattle side Russell Wilson. I 652 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,399 Speaker 1: mostly in obvious a here, but I'll note that the 653 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: Redskins have allowed just two hundred eleven passing yards in 654 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: less than one passing touchdown per game to every quarterback 655 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: other than Carson Wentz this year. And Russell Wilson just 656 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: eviscerated a really good Houston secondary. So maybe it doesn't matter. 657 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 1: But Wilson's accounted for three hundred thirty three total yards 658 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: or more and three total touchdowns and four of the 659 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,840 Speaker 1: past five games he's red hot. Totally wrong about my 660 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:54,839 Speaker 1: earlier predictions of doom. For for Russell Wilson, he's he's great, 661 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: keep him in your lineup. Jimmy Graham also an obvious 662 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: a to the point that I'm not going to spend 663 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 1: a lot of time on this, especially because the Redskins 664 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: of all of the most yards two tight ends eighty 665 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: one yards per game. So he is a great great 666 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: start this week. A grade for Jimmy Graham be great. 667 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: For Doug Baldwin, he has a tough matchup against emerging 668 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 1: slot cornered Kendall Fuller, who's currently ranked fourteenth by Pro 669 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: Football Focus. Although I'll note this, in the last three weeks, 670 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,720 Speaker 1: two slot corners have found the end zone against Washington, 671 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: Aldrick Robinson and Nelson Aghilar, so there is an angle here. 672 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: Skins have not a lot of receiver to top sixty 673 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: six yards since the opener at you, and so that 674 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: does worry me for Doug Baldwin, who gets a B grade. 675 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: It also worries me for Paul Richardson, who has a 676 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 1: C grade. I know he blew up last week. But 677 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: before you get too confident about remember you only caught 678 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 1: two or three passes in the previous five games, so 679 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 1: only two or three in the previous five. So let's 680 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: not go crazy chasing last week's box score for Paul Richardson. 681 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: Then Tyler Locketts on the bench for many of the 682 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: same reasons. No receivers top sixty six yards against the 683 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: Skins since the opening game, and he is getting Lockets 684 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 1: getting more looks of late, but he's still the fourth 685 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: option in this passing game, so I think you gotta 686 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 1: be cautious about him. And I'm putting all the runners 687 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: on the bench. This is the worst rushing attack in 688 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 1: the NFL. Chris Carson is still your leading rusher for 689 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks and he hasn't played since October one. 690 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 1: Rawls and Lacy both under two point six yards per carry. 691 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 1: Let's go to our next matchup, and that is the 692 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals at the San Francisco. We've already found some 693 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 1: take a chance, I mean, guys that we like here 694 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: in this game. But what do you think about the 695 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: Arizona offense now without Carson Palmer. I'm scared. Even though 696 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: it's got a gray matchup, I think I still have 697 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 1: to bench Stanton. I don't even know if I don't 698 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 1: know if he's going to play the whole game. I mean, 699 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: Gabert might come in for a revenge game, but he's 700 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 1: a sub fifty percent passed over the last three years 701 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 1: in relief. No, no thanks, despite the great matchup. Same 702 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 1: with most of the passing game, and I was the 703 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: top three against Ted Ends I'm mentioned Gresham Brown. I 704 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,320 Speaker 1: can't trust Fitzgerald. I'm going to give him a C, 705 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: and just barely. He's only got one game over fifty 706 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: yards with Stanton and last week and three quarters of work, 707 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 1: Stanton only targeted him twice. That's scary as heck. But 708 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: the matchup is so good it's got to be some 709 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 1: volume somewhere. I'm giving Fitzgerald a hesitant C. Running game 710 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: Ellington was your take. M love him this week, and 711 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: Super Sneaky has been dropped in. I love him too. 712 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 1: I like that call. And and Peterson they want to 713 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 1: feed him this week. The forty nine Ers defense has 714 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: allowed a league high tied for the league high ten 715 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: touchdowns running backs hundred thirteen rushing yards per game. I'm 716 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: giving Peterson a B grade. It would shock me if 717 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: he has an A grade. I would give him an 718 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: A if it wasn't for last week and I got scared. 719 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: So on the other side for passing game, I'm giving 720 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 1: better to see And it's mostly because he can get 721 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 1: some work done on the ground and his two starts 722 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 1: and a touchdown and the Cardinals have let up a 723 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 1: couple of touchdowns to rushing quarterbacks. The matchup isn't is 724 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: pretty good, you know, bottom five against quarterback's methods, not 725 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: throwing for a lot of passing yards. But he can 726 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: make it up there real quick. Do you buy that? 727 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 1: Shanahan said that Garoppolo will not play this year. I 728 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: don't buy it. There's no way, right, I just don't 729 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: buy it. I don't believe you. Kyle, sorry all right. 730 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: For the wide receivers, I'm benching them all I I 731 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: just can't decide what's going to happen with them. Where 732 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:24,799 Speaker 1: Peterson is gonna play if he's going to cover both 733 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,319 Speaker 1: Robinson and Goodwin at times. Uh, the slot is only 734 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,800 Speaker 1: giving up forty five yards per game. That makes Taylor tough. Kittle. 735 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 1: He's disappeared over the last couple weeks. I thought the 736 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: Iowa thing was going to be a thing, but not 737 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,760 Speaker 1: three catches in the last two weeks. But great matchup, 738 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: good matchup, Yeah, that's it. Still under fifty yards per 739 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: game to tight ends, but yeah, they have a lot 740 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 1: of few touchdowns. Carlos Hyde a grade this week. In 741 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 1: his last meeting with the Cardinals, he had total yards 742 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: and five catches. At the time of that game, the 743 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: Cardinals were allowing eighty five yards per game to running backs. 744 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: Since that game, we're talking after that game, they're now 745 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: allowing over a hundred and twenty yards per game to 746 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 1: running backs and have fallen to become a bottom ten 747 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: run defense. For Carlos Hide, I like it. Let's let's 748 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 1: work in a few calls again. It's deer hunting opener, 749 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: and that means we celebrate deer hunting widows, ladies. We 750 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 1: encourage you to call in your first priority on the 751 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: phones all day six nine, five, three to six. And guys, 752 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 1: it's not that we don't love you deer hunters. I 753 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 1: know a lot of your streaming the show right now, 754 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: maybe on I Heart Radio, KA fan dot com.

What can we do for you?

Um, wove Fuller, Robert Woods, 762 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: Mohammed's an new or one of of your take chances? What? What? What? 763 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: What is your call? I'd probably lean with Fuller and 764 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: Woods this week. I love Woods this matchup, and I 765 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: think I love both Woods and Fuller's matchups. Actually, yeah, 766 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 1: that's what we would do. Anything else we can help 767 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 1: you with, yes, yes, yes, yes? Um? What is your 768 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 1: two cents on Miami's Saks Field avoid that don't like 769 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: any of it? Yeah? If you had to pick one, 770 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 1: it's Kenyan Drake right now though, if you really want 771 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 1: to pick one up, yeah, let me write this one down, 772 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 1: but don't don't get too excited about it when you 773 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: have ah, okay, um okay, all right, thank you, appreciate 774 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: you listening, Thank you, thank you for listening. Let's go 775 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:04,280 Speaker 1: to Katherine. Hello Katherine to keep your patience this morning. Hi, hi, um, 776 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:11,439 Speaker 1: thanks for taking my call. I have an issue with quarterbacks. UM. 777 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: I have Brissette and Flacco going and I'm just wondering 778 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: if there was somebody else or two others that you 779 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 1: would choose over those two quarterbacks that I have right now. 780 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 1: I would choose the rest of the league over Flacco. Yeah, 781 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 1: literally have every other available starting quarterback. To me, it's 782 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: better than I don't think he's anyone else besides anybody 783 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: but Flacco. Brissette was might take a chance on a quarterback, 784 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 1: so I like him. Do you have anybody else knows 785 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,439 Speaker 1: I woul Yeah, I would say any of our tet 786 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 1: coms over Flacco, but I would agree that Brissette is 787 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:52,280 Speaker 1: probably has the best chances this week of those three guys. Okay, Brissette, Savage, 788 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 1: and Swaller, I got from you the best of those. Yeah, yeah, 789 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 1: I think we are okay. Yeah. Um. And then also 790 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: I have Mike Wallace uh and wily Sneed. Do you 791 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 1: think any of those I would drop? I would drop 792 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:16,319 Speaker 1: them both from your roster, Catherine, Yeah, you can. You 793 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: can find better help on the waiver wire, including our 794 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: take a chance on me guys that we that we 795 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 1: just discussed. Although two of them were tight ends, but 796 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 1: I think you can find you can put your waiver 797 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,800 Speaker 1: wire has probably got better guys on it. Okay, thank you, 798 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 1: appreciate it. We're gonna try to sneak in a quick 799 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 1: one here with Erica. Hello, huh um. I was wondering 800 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: somebody is offering me a trade for either of my 801 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:44,800 Speaker 1: tight ends. I have both Chelsea and Grunk. Wow, whatever 802 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 1: you want, Yeah, and you can. You can get a 803 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,399 Speaker 1: lot for them. Do you need to win this week, 804 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 1: ericaor is your team in good shape? My team is 805 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 1: into shape. And it actually wouldn't even take place until 806 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: next week, all right, so this would be after the 807 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: Patriots by week, which was part of why I was asking, 808 00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:00,920 Speaker 1: what do you think Scott do have a preference between 809 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 1: the two. I'd probably keep Kelsey. I just think he's safer. Well, 810 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 1: you can get more for Grounk exactly. You can get 811 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 1: more for ground. Kelsey has nine yard games in the 812 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,720 Speaker 1: last year and a half. It's the most of any players, 813 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 1: more than Antonio Browns. I think Kelsey's safer injury wise too, 814 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:21,800 Speaker 1: And you get more for Grunk. Yeah. Thanks, Erica.

When we return to Fantasy Football 818 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 1: Weekly on the fan, you're distinct to Fantasy Football Weekly 819 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 1: on the fan. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. I'm a fan. 820 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 1: Paul Charchie and Scott Fish and Brian Johnson in with you. 821 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:04,360 Speaker 1: It is time for a bit we call five tough questions, 822 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 1: which we typically like to begin with hot question number one. 823 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,120 Speaker 1: It's hot questions, not tough questions. And giving myself the 824 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 1: entire year to get that straight because it's been we've 825 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 1: been saying it for twenty years. From this point forward, 826 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,320 Speaker 1: will New Eagles running back j and g I finish 827 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:29,600 Speaker 1: as a RB one, r B two flex or bench player? Scott, 828 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 1: I'm going with r B two. I think he is 829 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 1: was brought in to be the lead dog, kind of 830 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: like the Marshawn Lynch to Seahawks steel uh and Blunt 831 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 1: has been terrible in short yardage and especially around the 832 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: goal line. He's only scored on one of his eight 833 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: attempts inside the five and one of his twelve attempts 834 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 1: inside the ten. That's where most of the scoring goes down. 835 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 1: Not to mention, in Miami, he was only averaging Miami 836 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 1: allow averages one point two yards before first contact. Philadelphia 837 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 1: is closer to two point two which is the league average. 838 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 1: So he's gonna get a lot more room to run. 839 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,240 Speaker 1: And his schedule is kind of, you know, the middle 840 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: of the pack. So RB two. Okay, Yeah, let's pile 841 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,359 Speaker 1: on Blunt a little more here. He's just a bad fit. 842 00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 1: In Philly, the Eagles run seventy percent of their plays 843 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 1: and shotgun formation. That's just not blunts m O meaning 844 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 1: normally yet to run outside the tackles in that scenario then, 845 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 1: yet Blunt just does not excel. There a g I 846 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,879 Speaker 1: Ken and now here's a good stat I got from 847 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 1: Graham Barfield on Twitter. Since the start of last season, 848 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 1: there are just three instances of an Eagle's running back 849 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 1: playing six of the snaps in a single game. And 850 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: all we're dinner and sprawls and j GI is far 851 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: more more sprowlsy and than Garrett Blunt is. So I 852 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: like him seeing the majority of the touches moving forward, 853 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 1: and he does have a pretty good schedule. Uh, they 854 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: did lose left tackle Jason Peters. The Eagles did as 855 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 1: a huge loss, but the schedule is decent after there 856 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,920 Speaker 1: by Dallas, Chicago, Seattle, the Rams, Giants in Oakland. Some 857 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,279 Speaker 1: of those teams sound scary on paper, but they're really not. 858 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 1: What is your answer here? AREB two? Y alright? RB 859 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:03,320 Speaker 1: two correct answer? It's flex. Here's why one blunts not terribles. 860 00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: Averaging four point seven yards per carry you know where? 861 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 1: That is way above average starting running back yards per 862 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 1: carrey and Gi joins the team with the sixth most 863 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 1: carries in the NFL. The Eagles are gonna want to 864 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:20,319 Speaker 1: unleash a fresh Agi in the playoffs, and more importantly, 865 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 1: Blunt is an is a UFA. At the end of 866 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,799 Speaker 1: this year, They're gonna run Blunt into the ground the 867 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: way Dallas did with DeMarco Murray because they don't care 868 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: about what happens to Blunt after this season. They need 869 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 1: a Gi, a fresh, healthy, ready to go at the 870 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 1: beginning of and in the playoffs. The best case scenario 871 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:45,320 Speaker 1: for JAGI is a split load backfield, and you can't 872 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 1: Those guys aren't r B ones or r B Two's 873 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:53,240 Speaker 1: question number two. From this point forward, will New Bills 874 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 1: receiver Kelvin Benjamin finishes an wide receiver one a wide 875 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 1: receiver to flex or bench. Bryan's trying to go first 876 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 1: prime so Buffalo doesn't throw a lot. Uh, that's why 877 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 1: they don't even with the road to except Shady McCoy 878 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 1: and Charles Clay when he's healthy. But uh, but still 879 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:11,919 Speaker 1: despite not throwing a lot, Tyrod Taylor has the third 880 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 1: most passing touchdowns from inside the ten yard line, and 881 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 1: he's also top five and attempts and completion percentage from 882 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,799 Speaker 1: inside the five. Um. He's never had a red zone 883 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 1: target quite like Kelvin Benjamin, and he does now, so 884 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 1: he's gonna utilize him a lot when they're in the 885 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:26,360 Speaker 1: red zone. And I just don't trust Charles Clay to 886 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: be healthy. All those passes were going to him, but 887 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: I think on one's canna eat into that big time. 888 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 1: So he used a wide receiver too wide receiver to 889 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 1: all right, I'm right there with you, wide receiver two. 890 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,720 Speaker 1: Pretty much everything he said that about Tyrod not having 891 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 1: a weaponless he had Clay, but now Benjamin can fill 892 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 1: that role. Uh. And their schedule, they played the Chiefs, 893 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:48,080 Speaker 1: the Pats, the Colts, and the Paths over the course 894 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:50,280 Speaker 1: at the end of the season, all bottom five against 895 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,759 Speaker 1: the pass. I think there's some good games there at 896 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,440 Speaker 1: the end of the season. The correct answers flex Benjamin 897 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 1: goes from Cam Newton to Tyrod Taylor, and Newton falls inconsistency. 898 00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 1: Is a better passer than Taylor is. Benjamin doesn't have 899 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,319 Speaker 1: the speed to separate from defenders, and Taylor is not 900 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 1: a precision passer. And the biggest problem though, is Benjamin, 901 00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 1: who's built for end zone goal line receptions, and the 902 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 1: Bills love to run the ball at the stripe and 903 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 1: they do it super effectively, so there's not a mandate 904 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:21,800 Speaker 1: to use Benjamin's size in the end zone. Davanny's hot 905 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 1: question number three is Devin funchis helped, hurt or neither 906 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 1: by the trade of Calvin Benjamin Scott. I'm going with neither. Uh. 907 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:36,240 Speaker 1: He was already the leading target getter before when Olson 908 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,399 Speaker 1: went out, and with Benjamin there. Now that Benjamin's gone, 909 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:41,760 Speaker 1: maybe he gets a few more targets, but he's gonna 910 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:45,000 Speaker 1: be drying top coverage and Olsen will be coming back. 911 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,800 Speaker 1: I think that there's enough hits there to go against 912 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 1: the the extra potential targets that I'm going neither neither. Okay, 913 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 1: let me reiterate that Tyrod Taylor has the third most 914 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,879 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns from inside. The founder was kidding they throw 915 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,880 Speaker 1: inside the five charge bail run inside five bunch of bunches. 916 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:05,280 Speaker 1: Funcious is gonna get hurt. He has played in twenty 917 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:08,000 Speaker 1: two games with Kelvin Benjamin, in sixteen games without him, 918 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 1: you think he does better in the sixteen games without him? 919 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,520 Speaker 1: He hasn't the average less targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns 920 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: without Kelvin Benjamin. So this is going to hurt him 921 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 1: moving forward. I say, neither Funius turns into the go 922 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: to wide receiver for the Panthers, and that's as much 923 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:22,920 Speaker 1: of a curse as it is a blessing. He's been 924 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 1: struggling against second tier coverage. Now what happens when he 925 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:30,440 Speaker 1: faces the best coverage an opponent can give every down? 926 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 1: And to make matters worse, there aren't any other receivers 927 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 1: worth double covering. I mean, if a team is going 928 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,880 Speaker 1: to give double coverage to anybody, it's all gonna go 929 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:43,120 Speaker 1: to Funchius. So we've never seen an opportunity for him 930 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:47,919 Speaker 1: to really step up and and take the mantle when 931 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 1: given the opportunity. When Benjamin missed a bunch of time 932 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, funch just didn't do anything with 933 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 1: that opportunity. I'm not certain he does here either Devanny's 934 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: hot question number his Time Montgomery, drop Herble Brian and 935 00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 1: non PPR absolutely uh not that will ever see double 936 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: digit double digit carries again anytime soon. But in the 937 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: four games he did this year, he failed to average 938 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,799 Speaker 1: more than three and a half yards per carry. He's 939 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 1: just not a running back running back, and that is 940 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:20,320 Speaker 1: a fact. Uh Now in PPR land, I'm still dropping 941 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 1: him to only has two catches over his last two games. 942 00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:25,759 Speaker 1: That's what Brett Hunley a quarterback. So there's not a 943 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 1: lot of chemistry there. And don't forget when he was 944 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 1: really catching a lot of passes last year. That's when 945 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 1: Randall Codd was injured. That's not the case right now. 946 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 1: So I'm dropping Time Montgomery in all formats. Okay, yeah, 947 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 1: pretty much everything he said. I like to say a 948 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 1: rising tide lifts all boats, and well, this is a 949 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,360 Speaker 1: low tide for the Packers right now. The whole offense 950 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:44,720 Speaker 1: should be downgraded. And he's only played of the snaps 951 00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 1: since Aaron Jones has taken over the control. I'm dropping 952 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,839 Speaker 1: Time Montgomery everywhere. Yeah, you guys have hit on all 953 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:53,879 Speaker 1: the key salient points here, and I've got a few 954 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 1: extra stats. I can throw in Since Week two, his 955 00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:01,319 Speaker 1: average game thirty one total yard and no touchdowns if 956 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:03,440 Speaker 1: he if it weren't for the fact that you invested 957 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: a third round pick in your draft or something in him, 958 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 1: you'd dropped him a long time ago. Based just on 959 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 1: the stats, it's not even clear. And this is also 960 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:14,480 Speaker 1: important that Montgomery is even the handcuff to own if 961 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:16,520 Speaker 1: something were to happen to Aaron Jones. I'm not sure 962 00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: Jamal Williams doesn't turn into the starter even in PPR 963 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:23,920 Speaker 1: one catch each of the last two weeks disastrous. Devon's 964 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 1: hot question number five, Are you holding DeAndre Hopkins and 965 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:32,799 Speaker 1: Will Fuller or you're trading him away? Scott, I'm holding him. 966 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 1: I'm holding him at this point, and mostly because of matchups. 967 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 1: They have the Colts and the Cards and the Titans 968 00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:41,080 Speaker 1: and the forty Niners early on, and then I'm gonna 969 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 1: try to trade him before he has to face the 970 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:45,320 Speaker 1: Jags and the Steelers in the playoffs. I don't know 971 00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:46,960 Speaker 1: at what point I'm going to trade them, but for 972 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 1: right now, hold and then I'm gonna trade in a 973 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 1: few weeks. I'm kinda with you, but if I can 974 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 1: execute a trade today, I'm gonna do it, and then 975 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:57,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to use the indie matchup as the selling point, 976 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 1: like you said, Jack c Villan Pittsburgh in the Fantasy playoffs. 977 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 1: As for Hopkins, he has Pat Pete of the Cardinals 978 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 1: coming up on his schedule as well. And uh, you know, 979 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 1: Will Fuller is not going to catch a touchdown on 980 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 1: every other reception like he did with Tom Savage. You're 981 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 1: still I would still high on Fuller even if I 982 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 1: would try and sell them today. All right, so you're 983 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 1: so you're you're going with the yes on cell today. Yeah, 984 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm going yes as well. Uh Tom Tom Savage has 985 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,840 Speaker 1: thrown one five passes in the NFL, which is a 986 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 1: pretty big sample size. I mean that's the equivalent of, 987 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:36,759 Speaker 1: you know, three games worth no touchdowns, not zero. And 988 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 1: you know, last year with Brick Osswidler destroying his season, 989 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien refused to use Tom Savage until the bitter 990 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:48,759 Speaker 1: end of the season weeks sixteen and seventeen. And and 991 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:52,840 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien, why was he so reticent to insert Savage 992 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,840 Speaker 1: when when Osswiler was so bad and was killing their season. 993 00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 1: It's because Bill O'Brien sees every single throw that Tom 994 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,680 Speaker 1: Savage has in practice and still didn't trust. I think 995 00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 1: Tom Savage is just weird with quarterbacks. He watched Deshaun 996 00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 1: Watson all preseason and said, oh, I'm just gonna go 997 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:11,480 Speaker 1: with Savage to start the season. John Bill O'Brien that 998 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: I I that end up a very confusing decision. Obviously, Um, 999 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,680 Speaker 1: you know we're only eight games are removed from seeing 1000 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 1: how little value fantasy value Deshaun, de Shaun uh sorry, 1001 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller would have under with bad quarterbacking. 1002 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 1: We're only eight games away from that, and it was 1003 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 1: bad last year. Will Fuller was not even rosterable. DeAndre 1004 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:38,319 Speaker 1: Hopkins was came finished last year like wide receiver forty. 1005 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 1: So I think you got a trade away right now, 1006 00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 1: strike while the iron is hot, and to Brian's point, 1007 00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 1: strike while you've got Indie on the schedule this week. 1008 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:48,920 Speaker 1: You've got twenty four hours to pull off that trade. 1009 00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:55,919 Speaker 1: Let's working to match up Broncos taking on the Eagles. Brian, 1010 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,839 Speaker 1: you already told us you like Brick Brick Oswiler in 1011 00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:01,480 Speaker 1: this game, so only like one of his receivers, if 1012 00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 1: not more. Who are the Who's startable here. Uh like 1013 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,560 Speaker 1: that's well never mind, Yeah kay. I like Brick, but 1014 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:10,640 Speaker 1: to Mary's Thomas, you gotta give him a B here. 1015 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:12,920 Speaker 1: He did catch five touchdowns in seven games with the Brock, 1016 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,200 Speaker 1: and Philly has been tough on paper against wide receivers 1017 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:18,279 Speaker 1: the last two weeks, but it was San Francisco and 1018 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:20,960 Speaker 1: the Northeaster and the washed up Washington wide receiver corps 1019 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,680 Speaker 1: of weeks before that. So I do like Thomas here. Uh, 1020 00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 1: the Eagles are top five and catches and yards allowed 1021 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,880 Speaker 1: to wide receivers. I will give Emmanuel Sanders a C 1022 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,840 Speaker 1: as well. You should make his return from a sprained ankle. 1023 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:33,319 Speaker 1: Even though brick Oswidler is his quarterback. This is a 1024 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,920 Speaker 1: favorable matchup on paper, so he is startable in a 1025 00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:38,799 Speaker 1: game where the Broncos would probably be chasing points. Um 1026 00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 1: uh no, no tight end, I'm not pointing to tighten 1027 00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:43,920 Speaker 1: for the Broncos. Is two modeled there um and over 1028 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,719 Speaker 1: the running game. CJ. Anderson has looked kind of bad 1029 00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: the last few weeks. Um, and that's why Davante Booker 1030 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:50,960 Speaker 1: has might take a chance for me running back. He 1031 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 1: had three carries inside the ten yard line last week. 1032 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 1: CJ has one red zone carry in the last three weeks, 1033 00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: so I like Booker a little more than Anderson. MS 1034 00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:02,320 Speaker 1: still gets the se um over to the Eagles. Carson 1035 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,680 Speaker 1: Wentz usually an automatic A, but he got to give 1036 00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:06,799 Speaker 1: him a B against Denvery efter to respect him. There 1037 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 1: no need for wins his stats. He's winning leagues right now, 1038 00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:12,879 Speaker 1: but the Broncos do warrant some stats. No quarterback has 1039 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:16,680 Speaker 1: topped two forty passing yards against them, but Tyrod Taylor, 1040 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:19,799 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, and Philip Rivers through for multiple touchdowns against 1041 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:21,799 Speaker 1: the Broncos this year, so wins can do the same. 1042 00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 1: Zach Ertz gets an A despite the hammy issue he 1043 00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:27,360 Speaker 1: was dealing with this week. Ertz has scored six times 1044 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 1: this year, and Denver has given up six tight end 1045 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 1: touchdowns through seven games. They ranked twenty seven against the 1046 00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: position by Football Outsiders, so Urts is still an elite start. 1047 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:40,640 Speaker 1: Alshon Jeffrey is not an elite start. Uh. Denver gave 1048 00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:43,279 Speaker 1: up seven wide receiver touchdowns all of last year, which 1049 00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:45,640 Speaker 1: is absolutely insane. That is not a lot of touchdowns 1050 00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,319 Speaker 1: to wide receivers. They had given up six already this year, though, 1051 00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:51,120 Speaker 1: so they softened a little bit, but most of these 1052 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 1: wide receiver touchdowns have been very random, John Colton, Andre Holmes, 1053 00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: Travis Benjamin twice. So it's just kind of like this 1054 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,520 Speaker 1: rando receiver will catch up touchdown. Alshon Jeffrey is gonna 1055 00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:03,719 Speaker 1: get the most attention from the wide receiver, so he 1056 00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:06,879 Speaker 1: just gets a sea here. I just said random wide 1057 00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:09,520 Speaker 1: receivers have scored. But I'm still putting Aglar and Torry 1058 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,440 Speaker 1: Smith on the bench. I do like you do like him? 1059 00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,239 Speaker 1: I was borderline. Yeah, he has touchdowns in three of 1060 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,840 Speaker 1: his last four games. Well wait, wait, wait, now he 1061 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:21,799 Speaker 1: draws Chris Harris dead. Yeah. Sorry, I was on the 1062 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 1: wrong side of that. It's close, but he's still rosperable 1063 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 1: and he will be startable in coming weeks for sure. 1064 00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 1: But Chris Harris is the best of their of all 1065 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 1: of their cornerbacks, and he's their slot guy. I don't 1066 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,879 Speaker 1: like it. And then, uh, let's go to the running backs. 1067 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:36,720 Speaker 1: We just talked about, Legarrett Blunt and j J I. 1068 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 1: I do like Blunt more in this game. I mean 1069 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: give him both the sea in this one is a 1070 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:43,239 Speaker 1: tough matchup. Denver ranked second overall against the rush and 1071 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 1: as yet to surrender a rushing touchdown this season, I 1072 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 1: almost want to bench both. I would actually bench a 1073 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 1: gi here. I'm benching both your right now, benoth Ben, 1074 00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 1: I may have he may only get five carries in 1075 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,400 Speaker 1: this game. Beat writers there think he's gonna do nothing, 1076 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,719 Speaker 1: don't start it, gi here. Let's find out. Let's find 1077 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:04,319 Speaker 1: out what they're how this thing is shaping up. First? Good, 1078 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:07,840 Speaker 1: all right, let's go to Chiefs taking on the Dallas Cowboys. 1079 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt isn't is an a even though he hasn't 1080 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:13,440 Speaker 1: scored now in five weeks, this thing is starting to 1081 00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 1: feel a little bit like last year. Do you remember 1082 00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 1: how last season Spencer where like through week four was 1083 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 1: like RB one overall and fantasy points, and then he 1084 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 1: trailed off Cree months of much better talent um. Now, 1085 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: the good news is the Dallas defense has given up 1086 00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 1: one dred, thirty four or more yards from scrimmage and 1087 00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 1: at least one touchdown to every back who's gotten twenty 1088 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 1: touches or more. Hunt averages twenty two touches, So workhorse 1089 00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:41,960 Speaker 1: backs are getting it done against the Cowboys. Dallas is 1090 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: also giving a four and a half yards per carry, 1091 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:48,000 Speaker 1: which is a ton, so A grade Kareem Hunt. Let's 1092 00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: go to the passing game. Be grade for Alex Smith. 1093 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 1: All of Alex Smith's multiple touchdown games have come on 1094 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:57,240 Speaker 1: the road this year. The Dallas secondary is healthy again though, 1095 00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 1: and they've been much improved over the past two weeks. 1096 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 1: They held Kirk Cousins and c J. Beethner to one 1097 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:06,680 Speaker 1: combined touchdown pass when healthy. There's a pretty good Dallas 1098 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:09,320 Speaker 1: secondary and they are healthy now. Alex Smith just a 1099 00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 1: B grade. Tyreek Hill, though I like a lot. He 1100 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 1: has a good opportunity gets back on track last week 1101 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 1: only two only two catches, but he faces a Cowboys 1102 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,680 Speaker 1: team that's given up the fourth most receptions to wide 1103 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 1: receiver nine touchdowns to wide receiver. This game is in 1104 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:26,880 Speaker 1: Dallas and Hills with three biggest games, and all three 1105 00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 1: of us touchdowns have come on the road. He goes 1106 00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 1: up against corner Anthony Brown, who when targeted, is giving 1107 00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:35,440 Speaker 1: up a passer rating of one hundred five. So I've 1108 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 1: got an A grade on Tyreek Hill, B grade on 1109 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,480 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey because it's a tough matchup. Cowboys are giving 1110 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 1: up just have given up just one touchdown to the 1111 00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 1: tight end position. They've held all opposing tight ends to 1112 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:50,280 Speaker 1: under fifty four receiving yards. That's it. I look through 1113 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 1: the tight ends they faced and they've been garbage. Kelsey 1114 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 1: is by far the best. I've got a B grade 1115 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 1: on Kelsey, but he trends towards an A. Let's go 1116 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:00,920 Speaker 1: to the Dallas side. Zeke is an obvious A, and 1117 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:03,520 Speaker 1: he's my number one ranked running back this week. If 1118 00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:06,400 Speaker 1: you missed the news yesterday, Zeke's playing, it's back on 1119 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,160 Speaker 1: his average game. Zeke's average game over the last month 1120 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:17,920 Speaker 1: of games one hundred sixty one yards and two touchdowns. 1121 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 1: That feels good. We take that here. Dak Prescott is 1122 00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 1: um as an A start as well. The chief secondary 1123 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,959 Speaker 1: really struggling, giving up two hundred seventy three passing yards 1124 00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 1: and two touchdowns per game. Only four teams have allowed 1125 00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 1: more rushing yards to quarterbacks. That suits Dak Prescott's game 1126 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 1: as well. He's an A start. So is Dez Bryant, 1127 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:39,400 Speaker 1: my number one wide receiver this week. Bryant lines up 1128 00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:41,320 Speaker 1: mostly on the left side. That means he's gonna avoid 1129 00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 1: Marcus Peters, He's gonna get the feast on Terrence Mitchell, 1130 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:47,520 Speaker 1: and then sometimes in the slot against Philip Gaines. Both 1131 00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:50,840 Speaker 1: have been liabilities and coverage, and the Chiefs have allowed 1132 00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:54,320 Speaker 1: the most touchdowns and the most yardage to wide receivers 1133 00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:57,240 Speaker 1: this year. I loved as Briant in this game as well. 1134 00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,480 Speaker 1: I like the Cowboys in this game overall too. They're 1135 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,400 Speaker 1: gonna I think they will win and win handily. Uh. 1136 01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 1: Jason Witten be great. It's been all or nothing with Whitten, 1137 01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:07,720 Speaker 1: but this feels like one of the all games. The 1138 01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:10,280 Speaker 1: Chiefs have allowed the third most yard to tight ends. 1139 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:14,240 Speaker 1: A j Derby scored against them last week. The prior week, 1140 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:18,680 Speaker 1: Jared Cook rumbled for one yards against them, so this 1141 01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 1: feels like a great opportunity for Witten as well.

Indianapolis takes on Houston. No small 1165 01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:13,600 Speaker 1: amount of chaos on the Houston side, but let's start 1166 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:15,640 Speaker 1: on the Indie side for just a minute. Jacoby Brissette 1167 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 1: was might take a chance, I mean quarterback? What do 1168 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,920 Speaker 1: you think about t Y Hilton this week? I love him? 1169 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,200 Speaker 1: I love him and Doyle. I'm giving him both a's. 1170 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 1: I know Hilton has been very hot and cold, lady, 1171 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,040 Speaker 1: but his good games were against Cleveland, San Francisco bottom 1172 01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 1: ten defenses when they played. His bad games against Seattle, 1173 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:36,080 Speaker 1: Jacksonville and Cincinnati top ten when they played. This one's 1174 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,320 Speaker 1: a bottom ten and he's averaging eight targets a game. 1175 01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:41,439 Speaker 1: Hilton with an A, Doyle with an A. Since coming 1176 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 1: back from injury, he's an average eleven targets per game 1177 01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,880 Speaker 1: as a tight end. That that is amounted to eight 1178 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 1: catches for seventy two yards per game, scoring twice. Texans 1179 01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 1: have allowed three touchdowns over the last four games, seven 1180 01:02:56,000 --> 01:03:00,320 Speaker 1: seven receptions seventy eight yards receiving a lot. It's a 1181 01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 1: lot over the last four games, Doyles, I think my 1182 01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:07,280 Speaker 1: tight end number five this week. I think I should 1183 01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:10,600 Speaker 1: look at I think I might admire you. I think 1184 01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm all right. I'm benching Gore and Mac. Texans are 1185 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:18,680 Speaker 1: top five versus the run. They've only allowed one running 1186 01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:21,200 Speaker 1: back over sixty yards rushing since Week one, and that 1187 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:23,840 Speaker 1: was Kareem Hunt. They will They have not allowed a 1188 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:27,360 Speaker 1: single running back over twenty five yards receiving except well, 1189 01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 1: I suppose one single one Trey Madden's fluke sixty six 1190 01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 1: yards reception. Otherwise they're not even allowing it in the 1191 01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:36,959 Speaker 1: receiving game, So just too tough here. Uh Gore doesn't 1192 01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:39,000 Speaker 1: even have a game over six yards rushing. I'm benching 1193 01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:42,480 Speaker 1: them both on the Texans side. Savage is my take. 1194 01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:45,360 Speaker 1: Hom I like him this week, and that makes me 1195 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 1: like Hopkins and Fuller still, Uh, Coults are bottom five 1196 01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 1: versus wide receivers. And get this, against the Colts. In 1197 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 1: the last four straight weeks, multiple wide receivers have had 1198 01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:57,960 Speaker 1: at least seventy yards or a score. So two different 1199 01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:01,560 Speaker 1: wide receivers every week are produced against the Colts. That's 1200 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:05,400 Speaker 1: Hopkins and Fullers Fuller here in Week one, Savage targeted 1201 01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:08,160 Speaker 1: Hopkins eight times in the first half. Granted, you know 1202 01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:10,640 Speaker 1: Fuller wasn't there, so we'll see what that amounts to. 1203 01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:14,320 Speaker 1: But number two receivers against the Colts. Three yard games 1204 01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:16,919 Speaker 1: and five touchdowns, So I think both are in play 1205 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:19,720 Speaker 1: quite a bit here. Yeah, they're still startable, both Fuller 1206 01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:24,439 Speaker 1: and Hopkins still startable. Even absolutely, I'm still I'm still 1207 01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:27,320 Speaker 1: starting Griffin too on a C grade. He's averaging five 1208 01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,919 Speaker 1: targets of games since Week two. He's Fedoraitz isn't back yet, 1209 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:33,280 Speaker 1: and Colts have allowed six tight ends over the last 1210 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:35,640 Speaker 1: seven games to have forty five yards or a touchdown. 1211 01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:38,720 Speaker 1: I think there's a little bit of opportunity there, even 1212 01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:43,880 Speaker 1: with Savage in Lamar Miller. Uh, the Colts have allowed 1213 01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:46,200 Speaker 1: the most rushing touchdowns in the NFL, and they're tied 1214 01:04:46,240 --> 01:04:49,720 Speaker 1: for the most touchdowns total in the NFL two running backs. 1215 01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:54,960 Speaker 1: Lamar Miller has fifteen touches in every single game. He's 1216 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:57,800 Speaker 1: just getting the volume. I'm still giving him an a 1217 01:04:57,880 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 1: grade here, all right, I'm you're a little less. I'm yeah, 1218 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 1: I'm a lot. I liked Miller a lot more when 1219 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:06,400 Speaker 1: the threat of the passing game was there for the 1220 01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:08,120 Speaker 1: Flights to have to defend a lot more than what 1221 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:11,160 Speaker 1: Tom Savage and Dwayne Brown who finally came back and 1222 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:13,480 Speaker 1: then left and then left. Yeah, there's that too. Over 1223 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 1: the last four games, they've allowed three receptions to running 1224 01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:20,320 Speaker 1: backs two touchdowns the last four running backs Like no, 1225 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 1: I look the defensive opportunities there. I'm not sure they 1226 01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:27,800 Speaker 1: have the trigger man in Um and Tom Savage. Let's 1227 01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:30,240 Speaker 1: go to our next matchup. Raiders taking on the Dolphins 1228 01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 1: um a lot of people concerned or questioning whether or 1229 01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:37,840 Speaker 1: not they can trust the Raiders passing game. It's been 1230 01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:40,960 Speaker 1: hot and cold all year. Dolphins secondary has been good. 1231 01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 1: What do you make of Car, Cooper and Crabtree. I 1232 01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 1: really like Derek Carr. I'm giving him an A. Looks 1233 01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:49,720 Speaker 1: like his old self with two straight big games, uh 1234 01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 1: this could be his third in a row. Miami's ranked 1235 01:05:52,760 --> 01:05:55,240 Speaker 1: against the past by Football Outsiders and they own the 1236 01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:59,439 Speaker 1: second highest opponent average passer rating allowed. Uh. Women Joe 1237 01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 1: Flacco and Ryan Mallett can combine to throw multiple passing 1238 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:06,760 Speaker 1: touchdowns against the Dolphins. I think that Derek car will 1239 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:09,160 Speaker 1: be just fine here. I don't like his receivers as 1240 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:11,760 Speaker 1: much though. Michael Crabtree I like more. I'm gonna give 1241 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:14,360 Speaker 1: him a B. He's the safer play. Obviously. Crabtree has 1242 01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 1: topped eighty yards or scored in six of his seven 1243 01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:19,560 Speaker 1: games this season, but it doesn't really appear to be 1244 01:06:19,560 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 1: an ideal matchup for wide receivers. Only two opposing wide 1245 01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 1: receivers have been targeted more than eight times against the Dolphins, 1246 01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,120 Speaker 1: who have allowed just nine total wide receiver catches over 1247 01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:31,160 Speaker 1: the last two games, but they've surrendered four wide receiver 1248 01:06:31,240 --> 01:06:33,800 Speaker 1: touchdowns over their last three games, So there is hope 1249 01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:36,680 Speaker 1: for Crabtree, who is the better red zone option over 1250 01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 1: a Marii Cooper, who I will begrudgingly give a b to. Uh. 1251 01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:42,600 Speaker 1: Twenty nine targets over over the last two weeks for Cooper, 1252 01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:46,320 Speaker 1: but he is a human roller coaster ride always right, 1253 01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 1: lots of highs, lots of loaves, So just be aware 1254 01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:51,880 Speaker 1: if you're starting Cooper this week. But you do have 1255 01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:54,120 Speaker 1: to start him. But I do like Jared Cook maybe 1256 01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 1: more than both wide receivers he was. Might take a 1257 01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:58,600 Speaker 1: chance on the receiver and then over to Marshawn Lynch, 1258 01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:00,920 Speaker 1: who I'll give it? Who I will they c two. 1259 01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:03,720 Speaker 1: He's coming off his longest run of the season, which 1260 01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:05,880 Speaker 1: is when he ran from the sideline to the scrum 1261 01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:09,760 Speaker 1: at the center against the Chiefs. Nice. Uh, So you 1262 01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,160 Speaker 1: should be ready to roll against the Dolphins in this one, 1263 01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:14,840 Speaker 1: but it might not be good times that are rolling here. 1264 01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 1: Miami is ranked third against the run by Football Outsiders. 1265 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:21,080 Speaker 1: They've only left three rushing touchdowns to running backs, and 1266 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 1: before the Dolphins blowout loss last week, they were allowing 1267 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,520 Speaker 1: only seventy nine rushing yards per game. So I'm only 1268 01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 1: giving Lynch a sea here and DeAndre Washington and Jalen 1269 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:32,000 Speaker 1: Richard are back on the bench. Over to Miami and 1270 01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:35,680 Speaker 1: their brand spanking new starting running back Kenyan Drake, who 1271 01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 1: I guess I will give a C two because he's 1272 01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:39,920 Speaker 1: a starting running back in the NFL. The Raiders had 1273 01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:42,200 Speaker 1: given up a hundred plus rushing yards for posting running 1274 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:45,120 Speaker 1: backs in four of their last six games. Drake appears 1275 01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:47,120 Speaker 1: to be the guy over Damian Williams. I don't know 1276 01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:49,600 Speaker 1: about that. I think this thing is really up in 1277 01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 1: the I think this is like right now, you can't 1278 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 1: get too excited about either. Really, that offensive line is 1279 01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 1: just awful. So but I'm give Drake a C in 1280 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:02,440 Speaker 1: this one. See what happens with that backfield, Like Jarvis 1281 01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:05,000 Speaker 1: Landry a little more, he gets to be borderline a. 1282 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 1: Oakland has given up three touchdowns to opposing wide receivers 1283 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:10,360 Speaker 1: over the past two games, and those are guys like 1284 01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 1: Andre Holmes and Albert Wilson finding pay dirt. Uh and 1285 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,880 Speaker 1: Oakland slot corner T J. Kerrey has allowed the third 1286 01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,680 Speaker 1: most catches and six most yards and slot coverage so 1287 01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:22,120 Speaker 1: Landry is a strong start. Uh. Maybe DeVante Parker is 1288 01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:24,759 Speaker 1: as well, should make his return from an ankle injury 1289 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:27,519 Speaker 1: this week and is hopefully near a hundred percent because 1290 01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:30,439 Speaker 1: when healthy, Parker was averaging nine targets and six catches 1291 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:33,000 Speaker 1: a game. Oakland is top ten and catches and yards 1292 01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:35,920 Speaker 1: allowed to wide receivers, so Parker is a good play 1293 01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:40,120 Speaker 1: if healthy. Oakland, also without two cornerbacks starter David Anderson 1294 01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:44,080 Speaker 1: and Demetrius McCrae. Kenny Stills is a tough one obvious 1295 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:46,439 Speaker 1: start if Parker doesn't suit up or if he's a 1296 01:08:46,439 --> 01:08:51,240 Speaker 1: surprise scratch. But Parker's yeah, and that's it for still run. 1297 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:54,880 Speaker 1: He was He did nothing when when Parker was healthy, 1298 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 1: he blew up when Parker was gone. I think it's 1299 01:08:57,280 --> 01:08:59,679 Speaker 1: that simple. Yeah, I'm with you there. And Julius Thomas, 1300 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:02,240 Speaker 1: still on the bench, has yet to top three catches 1301 01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:04,720 Speaker 1: or score a touchdown this year. Julius is also only 1302 01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:06,799 Speaker 1: top to thirty yards once, so he's on the bench, 1303 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:09,519 Speaker 1: as is Jay Cutler. He'll make his return from a 1304 01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:14,320 Speaker 1: rib injury, but Marcus Mariotta, Joe Flacco, Joe Flacco, Philip Rivers, 1305 01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:17,720 Speaker 1: and Tyrod Taylor all posted poor numbers against Oakland. I 1306 01:09:17,800 --> 01:09:20,280 Speaker 1: fear that Tuler Will is in that same category of 1307 01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:23,720 Speaker 1: quarterback unfortunately, and that might be being generous. Ladies. We 1308 01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:25,720 Speaker 1: have full phone lines, which is terrific. We're excited to 1309 01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:28,400 Speaker 1: take your calls.

I heart radio k fan dot com. 1323 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:29,680 Speaker 1: Send your photos, your action photos, as much action as 1324 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,040 Speaker 1: there is in a deer stand, of which there's almost none, 1325 01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:34,640 Speaker 1: but uh to me at Paul charching on Twitter and 1326 01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 1: retweeting them over the course of the show. It's been 1327 01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:39,200 Speaker 1: fun seeing everybody out there in the deer stands listening 1328 01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 1: to the show. Premature Speculation is a bit we do 1329 01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:47,479 Speaker 1: every week where we've identified players you should pick up 1330 01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:50,160 Speaker 1: now one week before we think they're gonna be hot 1331 01:10:50,160 --> 01:10:55,480 Speaker 1: pickups next week. We've unearthed tons of of good opportunities 1332 01:10:55,520 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 1: over the course of this show this season. Let's see 1333 01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:05,680 Speaker 1: what we got this week, Scott, premature speculation guy, Well, 1334 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:09,720 Speaker 1: this one might have been better had Ezekiel Elliott been out, 1335 01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,360 Speaker 1: it would have been better. I'm going with Rod Smith. 1336 01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:15,679 Speaker 1: I actually think he's the best running back in that backfield. Uh. 1337 01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:18,360 Speaker 1: He went for eight for sixty one against San Francisco 1338 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:20,879 Speaker 1: and Relief a few weeks ago. He had two preseason 1339 01:11:20,920 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 1: games over a d r S three catches in each 1340 01:11:22,960 --> 01:11:26,080 Speaker 1: of them. It's preseason, but he's shown a lot of flashes. 1341 01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:28,720 Speaker 1: And I know what Alfred Morris and Darren McFadden are 1342 01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:32,920 Speaker 1: like them done, Yes, exactly what Morris springs out is 1343 01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,719 Speaker 1: the confidence of the coaching staff, which counts for a lot. 1344 01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:37,720 Speaker 1: He's not going to cost them a win and all 1345 01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:39,439 Speaker 1: you know, turn a win into a loss in all 1346 01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:43,160 Speaker 1: probability and and also Charles Clays to do back next week. 1347 01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:45,080 Speaker 1: You should probably pick him up if he was dropped 1348 01:11:45,080 --> 01:11:47,120 Speaker 1: in your league. He could be a top twelve tight end. 1349 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:51,800 Speaker 1: He might play this week, might play tomorrow. Go get him, Yes, Brian, 1350 01:11:52,280 --> 01:11:56,200 Speaker 1: here's another tight end you could Abuh. It's been a 1351 01:11:56,240 --> 01:11:58,920 Speaker 1: while since we gave a tip of the Fedora to 1352 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:02,120 Speaker 1: c J. Fedora, but I could make his return next 1353 01:12:02,240 --> 01:12:04,320 Speaker 1: or he should make his return next week against the 1354 01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:08,240 Speaker 1: rams Um. Long story short with bad quarterback with bad 1355 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:11,680 Speaker 1: quarterbacking last years was basically a top ten tight ends 1356 01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:15,280 Speaker 1: and guess what, Houston Texans aren't that bad the rest 1357 01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:17,000 Speaker 1: of the year, so tight end has been a waste 1358 01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:20,320 Speaker 1: land outside of five, six, seven guys, No, not even yeah, 1359 01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:23,519 Speaker 1: four guys, and I'm probably being generous there. You're right. 1360 01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:25,479 Speaker 1: So if you don't have one of those four guys, 1361 01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:27,439 Speaker 1: go ahead for door wits. Now, how about a third 1362 01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:32,479 Speaker 1: tight end recommendation, Greg Olsen. I think he's in my opinion, 1363 01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 1: he's the best out of the three that we've given 1364 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:37,640 Speaker 1: you so far. He's practicing this week, he's eligible to 1365 01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:40,439 Speaker 1: come off i R in two weeks, and so if 1366 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:42,240 Speaker 1: you can sit on this for a couple of weeks. 1367 01:12:42,320 --> 01:12:45,479 Speaker 1: It's a great opportunity for him. No, Kelvin Benjamin, that 1368 01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:48,879 Speaker 1: certainly works in his favor. Greg Olson last year averaged 1369 01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:52,800 Speaker 1: eight targets per game. That would be tremendous production in 1370 01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:55,559 Speaker 1: this offense. So Greg Olsen a guy you can go 1371 01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:59,280 Speaker 1: get right now, be ahead of the curve. Also, Danny 1372 01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:03,240 Speaker 1: woodhead also practicing already, and the belief is he is 1373 01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:05,519 Speaker 1: fully healed from the hamstring injury that he suffered in 1374 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:07,920 Speaker 1: the preseason then reinjured in Week one, that he's one 1375 01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:11,720 Speaker 1: right now and could play drive he did. If you 1376 01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:15,400 Speaker 1: were to extrapolate his first drive of Week one before 1377 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:20,080 Speaker 1: he got hurt, that would extrapolate to eighteen thousand receptions 1378 01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:24,240 Speaker 1: for two hundred sixty seven thousand receiving yards this season. 1379 01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:29,559 Speaker 1: That would have been a really good season for Danny Wood. 1380 01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:34,000 Speaker 1: Had practicing also eligibley to return in week number eleven. 1381 01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:39,799 Speaker 1: Final matchup is the Monday nighter that is Detroit taking 1382 01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:43,000 Speaker 1: on green Bay. Let's start on the green Bay side. 1383 01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:47,320 Speaker 1: I don't have anybody graded above a sea. Let's start 1384 01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:49,680 Speaker 1: with the running game. Aaron Jones since taking over the 1385 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:52,160 Speaker 1: lead runner role, Jones has been good for an average 1386 01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:55,040 Speaker 1: of ninety total yards, which I like, almost a touchdown 1387 01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:57,080 Speaker 1: per game. I like that too, Um, and they're going 1388 01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:58,920 Speaker 1: to continue to run him a lot. You can't count 1389 01:13:58,920 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 1: on They count on the corner comic in a quarterback position. 1390 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 1: I think there's nothing they would like more than for 1391 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:06,599 Speaker 1: Aaron Jones to run the Packers to victory here. If 1392 01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:09,439 Speaker 1: history is any indication, he's gonna need a lot of carries. 1393 01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:11,759 Speaker 1: Though Detroit only gives up three and a half yards 1394 01:14:11,760 --> 01:14:14,960 Speaker 1: per carry last week, for Levy on Belle to get 1395 01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:19,479 Speaker 1: to seventy five yards, it took him twenty five carries 1396 01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:22,639 Speaker 1: to get there. There's a good Detroit run defense. So 1397 01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:25,960 Speaker 1: I see great and Aaron Jones from I think he'll 1398 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:27,400 Speaker 1: get plenty of use here, but I don't know if 1399 01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:29,400 Speaker 1: he's gonna get enough to to get him into anything 1400 01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:32,400 Speaker 1: too terribly meaningful. Let's go to the passing game. Oh, 1401 01:14:32,479 --> 01:14:34,840 Speaker 1: by the way, time, Montgomery, we already, as we already 1402 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:38,040 Speaker 1: established in a previous segment of this show, dead drop 1403 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:40,320 Speaker 1: him out right. Let's go to the Let's go to 1404 01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:43,719 Speaker 1: the passing game. I got Brent Hunley on the bench, 1405 01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:46,760 Speaker 1: brutal in his first start of the year before last 1406 01:14:46,760 --> 01:14:49,200 Speaker 1: week's by I hope he spent this week's bye week 1407 01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:51,360 Speaker 1: in Green Bay. I hope he didn't like keep his 1408 01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:54,000 Speaker 1: plans on going to Cancoon for the bye week. I 1409 01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:56,600 Speaker 1: hope he stayed in Green Bay and did nothing but 1410 01:14:56,720 --> 01:14:59,360 Speaker 1: practice and work on getting to be better, because what 1411 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:01,639 Speaker 1: we saw this week was bad or the week before 1412 01:15:01,640 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 1: that was bad. Um. The Lions have two terrific cornerbacks 1413 01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:08,800 Speaker 1: Darius slay KeAndre Diggs, that they're largely going to take 1414 01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:12,479 Speaker 1: away Davante Adams and Randall Cobb, and that means that 1415 01:15:12,479 --> 01:15:15,080 Speaker 1: that's what those are two less good targets for Brent Hunley, 1416 01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 1: and I don't know that he's got enough Jordy Nelson 1417 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 1: and him to cobble together a decent fantasy game. So 1418 01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:22,639 Speaker 1: I've got Hunley on the bench, so let's now talk 1419 01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:27,240 Speaker 1: Davante Adams. Top cornerbacks have been taking Davante Adams, not 1420 01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:31,120 Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson all year long. An example here locally, Xavier 1421 01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:33,920 Speaker 1: Rhodes shadow Davante Adams for most of the Viking game, 1422 01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:37,679 Speaker 1: so I expect him to get the sleigh ride this week. 1423 01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:41,960 Speaker 1: Darius slay is gonna has held Julio Jones, Antonio Brown, 1424 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:45,080 Speaker 1: and Michael Thomas to per game averages of just sixty 1425 01:15:45,160 --> 01:15:48,160 Speaker 1: yards and none of them scored. So and those guys, 1426 01:15:48,200 --> 01:15:50,200 Speaker 1: by the way, you've got Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlisberger and 1427 01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:53,479 Speaker 1: Drew Brees throwing to them, not Brett Huntley. So Davante 1428 01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:56,599 Speaker 1: Adams is just to see start here. Randall Cobb gets 1429 01:15:56,640 --> 01:16:00,080 Speaker 1: Candary Diggs has been a lot better this year, um, 1430 01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:02,639 Speaker 1: although slave receivers have had a handful of good games, 1431 01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:06,519 Speaker 1: including Juju Smith Schuster blew up last week. So but 1432 01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:10,320 Speaker 1: Tob has been only is only getting four targets per 1433 01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:12,519 Speaker 1: game over the last month, and some of those are 1434 01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:14,639 Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers, so I've got him on the bench. 1435 01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:19,639 Speaker 1: So let's not Jordy Nelson. If Darius Slay is gonna 1436 01:16:19,640 --> 01:16:23,479 Speaker 1: be on Adams, that puts Nelson on Nevin Larson, who has, 1437 01:16:25,320 --> 01:16:27,439 Speaker 1: by the way, he's got all the covered skills of 1438 01:16:27,479 --> 01:16:29,800 Speaker 1: a guy named Nevin who was getting beat up on 1439 01:16:29,840 --> 01:16:37,720 Speaker 1: playground pretty much. Nevin Lawson is quarterback one hundred and 1440 01:16:37,880 --> 01:16:40,960 Speaker 1: seven by Pro Football Focus, So I kind of like 1441 01:16:41,040 --> 01:16:43,000 Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson here, but I still can't get him above 1442 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 1: a sea grade. UM. Hopefully he can be better than that, 1443 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:48,920 Speaker 1: but I don't know that it's going to happen. Let's 1444 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:52,800 Speaker 1: go to the Detroit side. We'll start with the running 1445 01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:55,240 Speaker 1: game there as well. Amir Abdula just a C grade, 1446 01:16:55,520 --> 01:16:57,960 Speaker 1: averaging just three point two yards per carry over his 1447 01:16:58,040 --> 01:17:01,000 Speaker 1: last three games. He isn't allowed near the ball when 1448 01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:03,600 Speaker 1: they get to the stripe, although yesterday I think it 1449 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:05,559 Speaker 1: was to a reporter he said he wants the ball 1450 01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:07,280 Speaker 1: more near the goal line, and he can want it 1451 01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 1: all he wants, but I don't think that changes anything. 1452 01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 1: I'd like to get the ball near the stripe. That's 1453 01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:15,080 Speaker 1: not going to change anything. Abdulah is gonna average or 1454 01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:18,160 Speaker 1: has averaged forty five yards and no scores in two 1455 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:21,120 Speaker 1: games against the Packers last year. Green Bays just the 1456 01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:22,840 Speaker 1: middle of the pack run defense are giving a four 1457 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 1: point two yards per carry and the sixth most rushing yards. 1458 01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:27,479 Speaker 1: You know, you know the bit on Himdula. If you 1459 01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:29,680 Speaker 1: like your fifty yards on the ground and you like 1460 01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:32,240 Speaker 1: another fifteen through the air, he's your guy. I will 1461 01:17:32,320 --> 01:17:34,360 Speaker 1: We'll give Abdula this And this is from the RB 1462 01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:36,320 Speaker 1: scout on Twitter, who you've mentioned a few times in 1463 01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:39,479 Speaker 1: the show. Abdullah is third in um yards per carry 1464 01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:42,720 Speaker 1: after the potential tackle point over two and a half meeting. 1465 01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:44,759 Speaker 1: He gets it done on his own, so he passes 1466 01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:47,080 Speaker 1: the eye test. He's actually I think he's he's looked. 1467 01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:49,800 Speaker 1: He's having the best year of his career, but doing 1468 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:53,160 Speaker 1: it very quietly. And he's had some juke moves that 1469 01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:55,680 Speaker 1: have been sick this year. And and just just to 1470 01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:59,000 Speaker 1: add on real quick, before the potential tackle point, he's 1471 01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,439 Speaker 1: second to last with one point one yards would carry 1472 01:18:01,439 --> 01:18:03,960 Speaker 1: meing his offensive line is failing him miserably well. And 1473 01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:06,040 Speaker 1: they still have all kinds of problems across the offensive 1474 01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:10,280 Speaker 1: line with injuries as well. Let's talk Matthew Stafford, who 1475 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 1: I've got an A grade on. He's absorbed the fourth 1476 01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 1: most sacks, but the Packers have only had only registered 1477 01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:20,639 Speaker 1: twelve sacks all year, So think about this. They have twelve, 1478 01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:25,559 Speaker 1: the Jaguars have thirty three. That's how bad twelve sacks 1479 01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:27,720 Speaker 1: is this year. That's third worse than the NFL. So 1480 01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:31,800 Speaker 1: I think Staffords is comfortable in the pocket on Monday Night. 1481 01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:36,240 Speaker 1: He's thrown the ball in the last two weeks nine 1482 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:41,880 Speaker 1: seven times. So there, it's all about high volume here 1483 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:45,519 Speaker 1: and he's gotten consecutive three passing yard games. I think 1484 01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,200 Speaker 1: this is another high volume game for him. He roasted 1485 01:18:48,240 --> 01:18:51,040 Speaker 1: the Packers secondary for almost four hundred yards and three 1486 01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:55,400 Speaker 1: touchdowns in his last trip to Lambeau last year, so 1487 01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:59,360 Speaker 1: the environment does not intimidate him. Now. The Packers do 1488 01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:01,960 Speaker 1: get back Organ Burnett, that's a big plus for them. 1489 01:19:02,120 --> 01:19:04,240 Speaker 1: But there's still a lot of bad cornerbacks. And let's 1490 01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:07,599 Speaker 1: talk about some of these individual matchups, including Golden Tate, 1491 01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:10,840 Speaker 1: who gets an A grade. Even last week when he 1492 01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:12,960 Speaker 1: came in all banged up, he finished with a solid 1493 01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:15,920 Speaker 1: eighty six yards. He's a week healthier now and he 1494 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:19,240 Speaker 1: gets to face slot corner da Marius Randall, who's been bad. 1495 01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:22,840 Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus ranks him his cornerback one hundred to 1496 01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:27,600 Speaker 1: the last four slot receivers to play the Packers have 1497 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:32,000 Speaker 1: scored or topped nineties seven yards. I love Golden Tate 1498 01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:35,840 Speaker 1: this week. He's in my He's in my great chart 1499 01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:40,240 Speaker 1: Chase chart Chase lineup at fan ball dot com. Uh 1500 01:19:40,320 --> 01:19:42,439 Speaker 1: Marvin Jones gets a C grade. Over the past two 1501 01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:45,599 Speaker 1: weeks with Golden Tate hurt, he had seen twenty five targets, 1502 01:19:45,640 --> 01:19:48,000 Speaker 1: just one fewer than he accrued in the first five 1503 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:51,160 Speaker 1: games of the season combined. Now that resurgence happens to 1504 01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:54,640 Speaker 1: coincide with him returning to lambeau Field. What did he 1505 01:19:54,680 --> 01:19:58,759 Speaker 1: do at lambeau Field last year? Marvin Jones two hundred 1506 01:19:58,840 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 1: five yards and two top downs last year. He'll draw 1507 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:04,519 Speaker 1: a lot of Devon House, who is the best of 1508 01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:08,360 Speaker 1: the Packers lackluster cornerbacks though, So I'll mention that. So 1509 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:10,720 Speaker 1: then we get to one of the sneakiest plays of 1510 01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:16,080 Speaker 1: the week, maybe the sneakiest play of the week. T J. Jones. 1511 01:20:16,760 --> 01:20:19,920 Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay is gonna miss another game with his hamstring injury. 1512 01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:23,360 Speaker 1: He's gonna earn a starting grade here based on his 1513 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:27,320 Speaker 1: seven team targets the last two weeks eight and nine 1514 01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:31,400 Speaker 1: target games. And he goes up against rookie cornerback Kevin King, 1515 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:36,680 Speaker 1: who grades out as Pro Football focuses one best cornerback. 1516 01:20:37,439 --> 01:20:40,519 Speaker 1: If you are in a deep pinch, consider t J. 1517 01:20:40,760 --> 01:20:44,439 Speaker 1: Jones at wide receiver. Nuts, are you gonna do it? 1518 01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:50,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna mention No, No, there's no mention is not 1519 01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:53,080 Speaker 1: even worthy of the time it takes to say don't 1520 01:20:53,120 --> 01:20:58,880 Speaker 1: start him. That wraps up our matchup portion now it 1521 01:20:59,000 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 1: is time for Lightning Round again. I can't keep repeating myself, 1522 01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:06,080 Speaker 1: but let's be really clear about this, Ladies, you have 1523 01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:09,439 Speaker 1: priority for all of Lightning Round. Unless you get to 1524 01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:11,120 Speaker 1: a point where you stop calling. Then I'm gonna let 1525 01:21:11,160 --> 01:21:15,200 Speaker 1: the guys chime in. But otherwise, all ladies, it's deer 1526 01:21:15,280 --> 01:21:17,599 Speaker 1: Hunting Opener. We do this every year. It's been this 1527 01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:22,839 Speaker 1: way for twenty years now on this show. Deer Hunting Opener.

And also reminder, ladies, 1530 01:21:32,680 --> 01:21:37,320 Speaker 1: one question between two players. Only two players. We don't 1531 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:40,080 Speaker 1: want to hear your whole roster. That's how Lightning Round works. 1532 01:21:40,520 --> 01:21:43,679 Speaker 1: So let's jump in and we'll begin with let's see 1533 01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:50,160 Speaker 1: who's been holding the longest. Catherine, Hello, hi, Hi, I 1534 01:21:50,320 --> 01:21:54,040 Speaker 1: have a different cud of league. We played two quarterbacks, 1535 01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:56,960 Speaker 1: three wide receivers to running back, the tighten the flex. 1536 01:21:57,080 --> 01:22:01,879 Speaker 1: My question is about the flex, rob woods or blunt? 1537 01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:05,120 Speaker 1: Nicely done. One question between two players. Thank you for 1538 01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:08,000 Speaker 1: knowing the rules here, Katherine. I'm taking a long time 1539 01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:11,599 Speaker 1: listener for time color excellent, Thank you. I'm taking Robert Woods. 1540 01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:14,400 Speaker 1: I love love that matchup, and I'm just worried about 1541 01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:15,920 Speaker 1: what that split is going to be in week one. 1542 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:17,880 Speaker 1: I think Blunt should still get the majority, but I 1543 01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:20,400 Speaker 1: like Woods and a really tough matchup for Blunt against 1544 01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:26,000 Speaker 1: Denver too. Thank you, Catherine, Melanie, you are next. Hello, Hi, Hi, 1545 01:22:26,160 --> 01:22:29,879 Speaker 1: It's a big one for me. Um. I played my husband. 1546 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:33,719 Speaker 1: Whoever loses to clean all three bathrooms in our house? 1547 01:22:33,920 --> 01:22:37,240 Speaker 1: I love it. Every every league that's got couples who play. 1548 01:22:37,240 --> 01:22:39,800 Speaker 1: When it's your turn on the schedule to face each other, 1549 01:22:39,960 --> 01:22:42,599 Speaker 1: there ought to be steaks on the line, and I 1550 01:22:42,640 --> 01:22:45,120 Speaker 1: love that. I love it, love that, Melanie. We're gonna 1551 01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:50,719 Speaker 1: help you win, all right. Um. Carson Wentz or Derek Carr, WHOA, 1552 01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:55,240 Speaker 1: that's tough, back to Blunt real quick. Wentz is from 1553 01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:57,880 Speaker 1: my alma mater. I graduated from India, So I have 1554 01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:01,280 Speaker 1: a you have a spot for him in your heart. 1555 01:23:01,320 --> 01:23:06,360 Speaker 1: But we need we need ice cold rational logic right now, Brian. Yes, 1556 01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:09,280 Speaker 1: that's why I'm asking you. I'm gonna do my best 1557 01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:12,040 Speaker 1: to keep you out of the bathroom in the cleaning sense. There, 1558 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:14,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Car. I like Car a little more 1559 01:23:14,200 --> 01:23:16,920 Speaker 1: than wins. It's just an easier matchup for Car wins 1560 01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:19,360 Speaker 1: against Denver. That's one of the matchups where I would 1561 01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:21,400 Speaker 1: go Car over Wins. I gotta say. I mean, if 1562 01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:24,439 Speaker 1: Wentz put up a zero touchdown game against Denver, we'd 1563 01:23:24,439 --> 01:23:26,719 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, it was Denver that happens. So Plus, 1564 01:23:26,720 --> 01:23:29,200 Speaker 1: it's nice having that Sunday night hammer.

But in 1621 01:27:03,720 --> 01:27:05,920 Speaker 1: light of the fact that it's your tenure anniversary, we're 1622 01:27:05,920 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 1: gonna let it slide this time. Thank you. I really 1623 01:27:09,040 --> 01:27:14,080 Speaker 1: appreciate that. Okay, um, rest of the season, Orleansqua or 1624 01:27:14,760 --> 01:27:19,519 Speaker 1: the Vontae Booker.

It's it's offensive line crumbling before our eyes. 1629 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:33,280 Speaker 1: They just put their starting center on I R a 1630 01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:35,640 Speaker 1: couple of minutes ago. It's dark is their starter. But 1631 01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:38,600 Speaker 1: Gullman might step up. I like Booker better than c J. Right, 1632 01:27:38,960 --> 01:27:42,000 Speaker 1: I'd probably go on Booker and congratulations.
