WEBVTT - Week 3 Predictions: Top Scorers, Sleepers, and Last Chances 0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:14.960 Wow, everybody, It's Thursday, September nineteenth, twenty twenty four. Welcome 0:00:15.000 --> 0:00:17.239 to the NFL Fantasy Football Show where we're just happy 0:00:17.320 --> 0:00:18.480 not to be on irs. 0:00:18.560 --> 0:00:19.160 Me and man m G. 0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:22.160 Marcus Grant jointed by Michael Left Florio and Lakwan Jones. 0:00:23.320 --> 0:00:25.680 I would assume that neither of you, gentlemen, have avoided 0:00:25.760 --> 0:00:28.320 the injury bug Florio in your fantasy leagues. 0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:31.040 No, I have one team where my entire like, I 0:00:31.080 --> 0:00:35.080 have Tua and AJ Brown and Pachecko and Cup and 0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:37.960 it's just like, yeah, AJ Brown, Pachecko and Cup probably 0:00:37.960 --> 0:00:40.560 my three midst drafted players this year. So that tells 0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:41.680 you how my teams are looking. 0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:43.680 Yeah, how about you, Lakwan, I imagine you're in a 0:00:43.840 --> 0:00:45.240 similar situation. 0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:48.159 Very similar situation with you know, Cooper Cupp banged up, 0:00:48.200 --> 0:00:50.479 T Higgins still not playing, and then the running back 0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:52.959 situation is a mess as well, where heem mostered out. 0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:55.320 It's like scrambling to the wire to get a cam 0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:58.360 makers right now, ladies and gentlemen. So that's where I'm 0:00:58.400 --> 0:00:58.800 at with it. 0:00:59.360 --> 0:00:59.680 I am. 0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:01.720 I am at the point where I'm putting guys in 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:05.240 the lineup like hoping that makes them healthy, just magically, 0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:09.039 Like if I just put Kenneth Walker back in here, 0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:09.720 he's gonna be. 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:13.000 Okay, right, Like, that's that's where I am at. Yeah, No, 0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:14.039 that's not how that works. 0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:15.760 Like when you have no food in the fridge and 0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:17.959 you keep opening going to then there's still no food. 0:01:18.080 --> 0:01:21.040 Now that that's not going to fix it. Got purple stuff, 0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:23.039 Sonny d all that stuff back there. 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:26.000 We are going to go through some of our week 0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:30.360 three calls are superlatives. Our guys maybe that are sleepers 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:32.240 and the guys that we are giving one more chance to. 0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:35.400 But our story that we want to start with. 0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:40.160 There was video that surfaced on Wednesday of Jordan Love 0:01:40.200 --> 0:01:43.839 at practice walking around on the field. He is reportedly 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:48.440 working at practice again on Thursday. The Packers and Jordan 0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:50.920 Love are saying that he's hopeful that he can play 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:54.240 this week against the Tennessee Titans, which would first off, 0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:56.480 deprive us of a Malik Willis revenge game. 0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:00.680 Look, Floyda, there's a big part of me that thinks 0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:01.000 this is. 0:02:01.000 --> 0:02:03.760 Gamesmanshipped by the Packers that they just want to give 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:09.440 Tennessee just something else to plan for. But let's say 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.239 that there is some truth to this and that Jordan 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:13.720 Love can get out on the field if he plays 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:15.640 for the Packers, Can you trust him in a lineup 0:02:15.680 --> 0:02:15.920 for you? 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:16.560 I would not. 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:21.160 I just think like, look, they said six weeks. Even 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:23.880 in the video we saw yesterday, he looked like he 0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:28.200 was still walking a little gingerly. I think it's a 0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:30.800 lot of gamesmanship personally, Like they were saying that he 0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:34.359 might play last week and we know he didn't. I 0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:36.320 don't know to me, the risk of re injury or 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:39.519 the risk of him just not playing well, especially when 0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:42.440 there's a lot of quarterbacks that have recently hit off 0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:46.320 the waiver wire, like Baker Mayfield, like Derek Carr. You 0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:49.000 needed a guy and these guys have hit, so I 0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:51.280 think you could continue to just ride with that and 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:53.600 see it first for one game. By the way, I 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:55.560 don't know if you guys saw how Malik Willis answered 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:57.560 that question yesterday with it him by the way, yeah, 0:02:57.560 --> 0:02:59.400 they asked me it was a revenge game. I am 0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:01.200 rooting so hard for Malik Lewis. 0:03:01.240 --> 0:03:03.080 Yeah, if you didn't see the answer, he was basically 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:04.800 like no, He's like they took a chance on me. 0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:07.239 He's like, I'm grateful they treated me well, they gave 0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:09.400 me an opportunity. He's like, I have no hard feelings. 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:10.440 It's not a revenge game. 0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:12.679 My favorite part was he said, I'm pretty sure I 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:13.600 got paid the whole. 0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:17.040 Time that part of me life. I was like, you're 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:20.520 not sure, Like, did you pretty sure the money hit 0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:21.000 the account? 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.399 Right? You're pretty sure that therect deposits still hit every 0:03:23.400 --> 0:03:26.760 single week or every two weeks rather? I mean, okay, 0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:28.760 so you know, Lakwan, you got Florio saying that you 0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:30.519 know you can't trust Jordan Love in a lineup. But 0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:34.000 let's say you've got Jaden Reid right, or or you've 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:38.520 got Christian Watson. Do you want a less than one 0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:41.520 hundred percent Jordan Love? Would you prefer that over Malik Willis? 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:43.360 If you have a Packers wide receiver. 0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:48.520 I would prefer Jordan Love injured still playing against the Titans. 0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:51.119 I'm not sure Malik Willis playing against the Titans would 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:55.400 be best fantasy production for Jaden Reid or Christian wattson Like, 0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:56.880 I really feel as though it's going to be a 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.720 limited playbook. And what we saw last week was the 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:02.400 Packs just running it down the Colts's throat. I don't 0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:04.680 think they can do that against this Titans defense, who 0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:07.240 are really tough against the run. So more so it's 0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:09.360 gonna be it's gonna be a game of just the 0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:11.760 unknown of what Malik Wilson they're gonna go out there 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:14.120 and do against his Titans defense. It's more so of 0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:16.720 like like Florio was saying, I'm taking a step back 0:04:17.040 --> 0:04:18.400 some of those guys. You were able to get out 0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:21.320 the wire, the Baker mayfields, to Sam Darnolds, to Derek Carr, 0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:23.120 you know, off the way wire after week one, making 0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:25.279 the adjustments to your roster, so you kind of just 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:27.839 rock with those quarterbacks. And if you made the adjustments 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:30.640 last week with Jayden Reid, then you just kind of 0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:32.440 have to just wait and see how this all plays 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:34.479 out and when Jordan Love's going to have the expected 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:36.760 real timeline back into this offense. 0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:40.559 Yeah, I just I think after seeing what happened last week, 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:43.039 I felt like Matt Lafleur did a really good job 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:46.000 of playing to Malik Willis's strings, also sort of playing 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.680 into the weaknesses of the Indianapolis Colts, because see, here's 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:51.479 the thing about the Colts run defense, It's bad, and 0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.479 they really took advantage of that. I mean, even with God, 0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:57.880 even with knowing that Jordan Love probably wasn't going to play, 0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:00.240 and then you know, realizing that Malik will is going 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:01.880 to be a quarterback, Josh Jacobs still ran for one 0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:03.400 hundred and fifty yards on Indy. 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:04.520 Like that's a problem. 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:07.080 I know we're gonna talk about other stuff. It just 0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:09.440 you saying how bad they are? Can we trust DeAndre 0:05:09.480 --> 0:05:10.640 Swift against them? This week? 0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:13.640 I got him as a sleeper. It's I got him 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:14.279 as a sleeper. 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.240 He's in my sleeper column this week, just because I think, 0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:19.440 I think one the Colts defense run defense is bad, 0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:21.800 but also the Bears have to do something to take 0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:24.560 pressure off Caleb Williams. You know, I've I've been I've 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:27.760 I've really appreciated like all the tape grinders out there, 0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:30.120 all the film experts really going through and showing that 0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:33.960 Caleb Williams is making the right decisions at the line 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:37.440 and really making some good choices. But because he has 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:39.640 no protection, you know, as soon as the ball is snapped, 0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:41.680 it seems like he's, you know, trying to scramble out 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:42.120 of pressure. 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:45.280 Uh. I know, he has the most unblocked pressures and 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:49.440 sacks taking this Yeah, unlocked, Like it's not his faults. 0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:51.120 I know everybody made a big deal of his body 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.240 language when CJ. Stroud was talking to him. I'm like, 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:54.880 that just looks like a man who just got beat 0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:55.480 the hell up? 0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:58.200 What do you expect him to be, bubb. 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:03.000 Do you stop taking those hits? Like, dude, I can't. 0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:06.560 Everyone's saying his body language is bad. I'm like, yeah, man, 0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:08.760 he's just got sacks seven times. It was on the run, 0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:11.039 Like all of our body language will be bad, and. 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.640 His body language look like you want to switch lines with. 0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:17.400 Me, I'll gladly do that. So, like I just I 0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:19.440 would read too much into that. So we'll see. 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:21.440 We'll see what happens with Jordan Love. I would not 0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:23.080 expect him to play. I think it's going to be 0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:25.320 another Moliku for this game. Then maybe week four we 0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:28.720 can revisit this whole conversation. But whatever, let's dive into 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.120 some of the things we think will happen in this 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:33.160 third week of the season. We will start off with 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:33.840 Club Good. 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:36.440 Let's go. We will be the top score. 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.960 Let's go non quarterback top score in this one. Lakwan 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:41.920 who is going big? In Week three? 0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:44.960 I'm going with King Henry. This is going to be 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:46.640 a game where I feel as though this is going 0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:49.039 to put all the haters to bed about Oh he's 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.760 not getting thirty touches. He doesn't need it, especially against 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:55.120 this Cowboys defense where there allowing the second high and 0:06:55.240 --> 0:06:58.160 rushing EPA on defense and that's leading to a lot 0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:00.880 of scoring drives. And this is a lot of opportunities 0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.080 that's going to be on the table for Derreck Henry 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:04.960 to find his way into the end zone. He won't 0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:07.719 need twenty touches I think to have a great fantasy 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:09.320 add in this week. But he is going to hit 0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.560 the top of the leader boards going up against his 0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:15.239 Dallas defense who are allowing the most rushing touchdowns right now. 0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:19.000 So I feel like King Henry or turns back into positive, 0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:21.840 positive energy here out on the Twitter streets. I'm not 0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:23.240 talking down on King Man. 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:23.880 Yeah. 0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.240 Well, and last week we saw them really deemphasize Lamar 0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:27.880 Jackson in the running game, but we know they. 0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:29.360 Still want to run the football. 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:31.480 So I think that means a lot of Derek Henry 0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:35.680 in Miami Floria. We're still waiting to see Raheem Moster. 0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:37.400 He's another one of those guys I'm just putting him 0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:39.680 back in the lineup, hoping that magically that heals his 0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:40.640 chest injury. 0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:43.440 But in the meantime, we know Devon a chance still there. 0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:45.600 Yeah, he is going to eat. I think he will 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:48.080 be the top scorer this week just because of volume 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.080 lake Last week, in a game where Tua got hurt 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:53.760 and they were getting blown out, they continue to force 0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:55.960 feed him the ball twenty two carries. He had a 0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:59.280 team high seven targets, seven catches. He was their top receiver. 0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:04.640 I think their Miami offense is going to one be 0:08:04.680 --> 0:08:07.320 a lot more run heavy, whether like with most are there. 0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:09.640 I think both of these guys could eat because I'm 0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:12.120 expecting just a lot more running the ball. But I 0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:14.080 also think, I know it's something you were talking about 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.040 with John new Smith. I don't think they're gonna let 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.120 Skyler Thompson or ask him to air it out like 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:20.960 he's too. So they're gonna try to generate a lot 0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:23.400 of short, quick touches and you do that to your 0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:25.880 speedy guys, and Devon chan is one that we know 0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:28.800 they will generate touches for in the passing game. We 0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:31.520 saw it last week, so uh yeah, I know we 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.160 were all a little bit low on him right now. 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:36.679 Through two weeks that's not looking great. And with two out, 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:39.319 I just think they're gonna continue to force feed the run. 0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:41.320 That would not be a surprise to me at all. 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:43.679 And we saw in the first couple weeks him getting 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:45.640 involved in the passing game too, catching the football, So 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:48.679 that's also an option to help Skyler Thompson out as well. 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:52.360 Lakwan earmuffs because Jordan Mason is going to have himself 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:54.160 a day against the Rams. 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:57.439 I mean, look, let's just let's just be honest here. 0:08:57.480 --> 0:09:00.000 The Ram defense has been bad the first two weeks, 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:02.760 and it is very apparent how much they miss both 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:05.560 Aaron Donald and Ernest Jones. The first couple weeks of 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:08.600 the season, teams have been running the football effectively. Yeah, 0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:11.119 and the Niners are short handed, right, no Christian McCaffrey, 0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:12.280 no Deebo Samuel. 0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:13.840 They're really beat up. 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:15.760 I think a way to sort of counteract all that 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.520 is to just run the football. And we know that 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:21.320 Kyle Shanahan really has no problem with running the football, 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:25.320 establishing the run, you know, and depending on how this 0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:27.760 game goes, maybe it's Jordan Mason closing things out in 0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:28.760 the fourth quarter as well. 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:29.200 Floria. 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:31.160 You mentioned on Fantasy Live earlier in the week that 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:34.160 all other forty nine er running backs have a grand 0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:37.960 total of four combined snaps. It is all Jordan Mason, 0:09:38.240 --> 0:09:41.360 all the time against a front, defensive front that's really 0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:42.680 trying to figure itself out. 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:44.720 I think he has a really, really big week. 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.520 I'm waving the white flag right now, as you can see. 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:49.520 I mean, this isn't even me, This isn't even me 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.319 taking a shot at the rams. This is just looking 0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:54.600 at what is just kind of imagining what is going 0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:55.880 to be my start. 0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:58.640 Sid is just filled with forty nine ers this week? Yes, 0:09:58.880 --> 0:09:59.960 like why would it now be? 0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:00.600 Yeah? 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.120 I mean, look, there's we've reached the part of the 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:04.760 season we can figure out defenses to target. And you 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:09.000 know that the Washington secondary, who are There's there's a 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:10.480 few other ones in there that we figured out we 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:12.440 can just we can just target right now the Panthers 0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:15.800 in general. Diving into some more of our Week three 0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:19.160 suggestions here and we've got the snore Lax. It is 0:10:19.160 --> 0:10:23.360 our favorite Week three sleeper. And I'm sorry, LaQuan, did 0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:24.480 we flash back to Week one? 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:27.200 What's what's happening? With your sleeper. What's going on here? 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.880 I'm going to Alan Lazard as my sleeper man. I 0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:32.000 think this is going to be an opportunity for him 0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:35.240 to be a security blanket for Aaron Rodgers. He has 0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:37.120 he's stuck in the mud. He ain't getting out of 0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.800 the pocket, he's not extending the place, keeping these drives alive. 0:10:40.040 --> 0:10:41.800 So he's gonna look for a guy that's going across 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:44.360 the middle with a familiar face, and that's Alan Lazard. 0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:46.680 He has a twenty two percent target share right now, 0:10:46.840 --> 0:10:49.160 and he has a decent, solid, you know, chemistry with 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:51.959 Aaron Rodgers, and believe it or not, he's actually getting 0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:54.560 the opportunity to score. So we're all assuming that, you know, 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:57.720 Garrett Wilson would be blanketed by Marcus Jones or Christian 0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:00.959 Gonzales or whatever the case may be. So strong secondary, 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.400 but when we look in the red zone, you're looking 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:06.640 at Garrett Wilson having a lower target sher than Alan 0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:08.679 Lazar is a little frightening. 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:09.040 For me right now. 0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:10.880 For a guy that's supposed to be your alpha, so 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:12.800 he's going to be the guy that can possibly be 0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:15.600 the security blanket. It's probably going to be Breist Hall 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:18.720 or Alan Lazar bailing Aaron Rodgers out on Thursday Night Football. 0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:22.000 Mike Garrett Wilson shares one a dislike button for that take. 0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:25.800 I'm I'm not saying you're wrong. It's just like it's 0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:27.800 not been great for Garrett Wilson and that doesn't make 0:11:27.800 --> 0:11:32.280 me feel confident. So the next guy, you're sleeper here, Flora, 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:34.480 I guess we are contractually obligated to mention this guy 0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:37.240 at least once a show. So we've checked the box. Here, 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:38.120 we filled our. 0:11:38.120 --> 0:11:42.360 QUARTERA going to do I put in parentheses unless Lakwan wants. 0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:45.920 I was like, I can't take him from you, But 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:48.360 if you want to go Alan Lazard for some reason, 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.920 sure I'll talk. I'll talk Greg Dorts. I just I 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:54.880 think you want exposure to this game. Like, look at 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:57.559 the Week three slate and there's a lot of games 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.559 that like you kind of have to convince your could 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.440 be good offensive games or something could happen. This is 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:06.120 the one game on this late that you're like, points 0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:08.960 are going to be scored by both sides. And the 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:11.520 thing is the Lions have allowed the most yards to 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:14.800 receivers this year, the fourth most yards to slot receivers. 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:16.960 We know that is where Greg Dortch makes his money. 0:12:17.160 --> 0:12:19.160 And then I mean, look what Cooper Cup did against 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:20.719 him in week one, Look what Chris Godwin did in 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:22.680 Week one. Those are guys who line up out wide 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:24.920 and in the slot, they move around the field. Greg 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:28.160 Dortch can do that for this offense. So maybe it's 0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:29.920 just a one week say. I don't know, but I 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:33.680 will be with Lakwan at Dorschland this Sunday. 0:12:33.679 --> 0:12:35.440 Well, and I think what I think what we saw 0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:37.560 last week, I mean when they went big to Marvin 0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:39.599 Harrison Junior, they didn't we didn't really see much of 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:41.679 Greg Dortch, and it got to a point where it's 0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:43.920 just like, all right, well we're gonna just run the 0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:45.640 ball now, and so you didn't really need him. 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:47.280 I don't think that's gonna be the case this week. 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:49.839 I think it's gonna be back and forth between those 0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:51.720 two teams, and I do think Greg Dorch is gonna 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:53.880 be back in there and get some more opportunity this week. 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:56.480 I'm going defense, because you know a lot of leagues 0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:58.920 still play with defenses and DSTs, and I'm going with 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:03.360 the Packers. I'm going with the packers. Defense. People contain multitudes, right, 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:07.080 and Will Levis is a lot of things. Boring is 0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:09.880 not one of them. If I were a Titans fan, 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:12.960 he is exciting in the worst way possible, But for 0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:14.880 the rest of us, he is exciting in the most 0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:19.560 hilarious way possible. He had that weird sort of pitch 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:23.200 fumble last week where you had Brian Callahan afterwards asking 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:26.480 what the bleep are you doing? I mean, Brian Callahan 0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:29.240 was all of us watching Will Levis, like, what the 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:32.840 bleep are you doing out there? There seems to be 0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:36.720 at least one of those moments every single week with 0:13:36.840 --> 0:13:39.480 Will Levis. I think if I looked at it, if 0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:41.800 I remember correctly, and I could be misstating this stat 0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:46.120 I looked it up. I think it's thirteen career starts 0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:50.559 for Will Levis and he's got like like seventeen or 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:51.800 eighteen giveaways. 0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:53.640 It's more than one per game. 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:56.560 I said yesterday, He's like he reminds me of rookie 0:13:56.600 --> 0:14:00.000 year Josh Allen, just not as good Alan was doing 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:02.360 and all of these weird things, and it was like, 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:04.680 if he could stop that, he could be really good. 0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:07.319 Will Levis just doesn't have the highs right exactly. I 0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:09.000 mean people have seen the mean lately. 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:10.760 It's like it's like he's got a green goblin mask, 0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:14.440 like whispering in his ear. But like Josh Allen has 0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:16.480 that green goblin mask, but he'll still go out and 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:18.480 like every now and then, like you know, the the 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:19.840 Norman Osborne. 0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:21.240 Part shows up and it's like, don't do that. That's 0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:21.760 not good. 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:25.840 Will Lovis just has the goblin mask and no other 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:28.200 side to be like, hey man, maybe don't do that. 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:31.320 Like so I think I think the packers. The packers 0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:33.280 get a couple of takeaways, you can get a couple 0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:35.200 of sacks. I liked them as a nice sleeper defense. 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:36.840 I know this would throw us off if we really 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:39.680 got into it, but that green Goblin specifically is my 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:40.840 favorite Spider Man villain. 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:44.320 Oh oh, I mean yeah, I agree. No, you know, 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:46.040 I am something scientists myself. 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:48.200 You can do this to me. 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:54.240 Finally, we have what I'm calling the one forty five am. Guys, 0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:57.200 it's last call. The lights are coming, the lights are 0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:00.200 coming on. You're trying to get that last drink. They're 0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:03.360 starting to play semi sonic closing time. They're telling you 0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:04.520 you got you don't have to go home, but you 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:05.280 can't stay here. 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:06.200 This is it. 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:07.720 Guys were sort of at the end of the rope, 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:09.720 like it happens this week or wet. We gotta find 0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:12.320 a way to move on. Who is that for you, Lakwan. 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:14.280 It has to be Zach Moss. This is a pick 0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:17.160 me up game, you know, going against his commander's defense. 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:19.760 Like I was happy to see him find the end 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:22.280 zone in the third quarter last week, but man, that 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:25.440 really saved his week. Like we're getting mediocrere numbers from him, 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:27.080 and if you're going to be getting this full on 0:15:27.240 --> 0:15:30.440 workload because he's taken over seventy percent of the snaps, 0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:32.920 Chase Brown is not even being involved as much as 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:35.080 we all thought he was. And for the fact that 0:15:35.120 --> 0:15:38.040 he's taking one hundred percent of the third down snaps, 0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:40.840 he's not even getting enough targets out of that back roode. 0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:43.360 He's running all these routes, but he's not getting these looks. 0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:46.360 So there's not much production in all his usage where 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:49.720 it's like, man, we need Zack Moss to be utilized more. 0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:52.080 If you're not more in the passing game, if you're 0:15:52.080 --> 0:15:54.000 not going to be using Chase Brown, So that's a 0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:57.480 little annoying there to where like they're basically not performing 0:15:57.520 --> 0:15:59.120 at a high level that we thought they were going 0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:01.080 to be performing in the ashing game. So I just 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:03.320 need more from Zack Moss on this pick me up. 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.680 I need at least like fifteen Fantasy points against his 0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:06.960 beat out commander's defense. 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:08.760 Yeah, I'm curious to see how this works. I mean, 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:10.400 maybe he gets some run. I think they're gonna throw 0:16:10.440 --> 0:16:12.440 the ball a lot this week. I like Joe Burrow, 0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:15.760 t Higgins maybe back as well. I'm very curious see 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:17.160 what happens in the second half, whether or not we 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:19.600 see more Zach Moss. Still a little bit stinging because 0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:21.560 I thought Chase Brown was the guy that you really 0:16:21.600 --> 0:16:24.320 wanted in that backfield, and that is that is absolutely 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:27.480 not been the case through the first two weeks. Speaking 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.240 of running backs, you got a running back that you 0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:30.480 are pretty much at wits. 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:31.360 Ends with Florio. 0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:34.920 Yeah, I think this is the week he makes up 0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:38.080 for it. But it's sa mere White. If Zamir White 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:41.160 does not have a good game against the Carolina Panthers, 0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:42.560 I'm fine dropping him. 0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:46.000 Like if you can't produce in. 0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:47.840 A game like this where game script should be on 0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:50.640 your side where the team has been ran all over, 0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:53.320
