00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: today Scott Fish and Matt Harrison. Hello, guys, greetings, it's

7
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: a big, big bye week. Oh Man, week number Uh

8
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: well it's week number nine, but nine times six quite

9
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: not quite, doesn't quite work that way, uh six teams

10
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 1: on by. We're gonna test the metal of a lot

11
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,959
Speaker 1: of fantasy owners, the depth of your roster. If you've

12
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: been coasting on two good players, maybe not so more,

13
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: not so much, maybe no longer, I don't know, Yes,

14
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: something like that. We've got we'll break down all of

15
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: the games with the remaining games, whatever is left on

16
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 1: this rock. Right, So we've got three games missing, We've

17
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: got one that happened Thursdays games. I think that's all

18
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 1: that's left. Not a lot, So we'll zip through those,

19
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: will go through take a chance, I mean which we

20
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: give you nine players you would not normally start. Many

21
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: of them were available on the waiver wire and man,

22
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: do you need it this week? You do? Between the

23
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: bye weeks and the injuries, it's a it's a terrible landscape.

24
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: We're here to help with players you can pick up

25
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: and start, and then premature speculation, as always, I want

26
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 1: to start with this, just a personal anecdote. I performed

27
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: a great sabotage drop this week. It was surgical. It

28
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: was surgical. Now it was in a guillotine league, which

29
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: is a little bit different. Ten teams left in this league.

30
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: I dropped with no other quarterback on my roster. I

31
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: dropped Lamar Jackson on Tuesday in the hope of getting

32
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: somebody to burn a bunch of fab on him. Now,

33
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson has not been a very good quarterback for

34
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: a while. He's gonna be missing key receivers this week

35
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: and then he's going into his by So I'm like,

36
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: this is the perfect chance to try to get somebody

37
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: to use up some fab. And you think you're gonna

38
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: get him back in two weeks, And that's right, that's

39
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 1: exactly right. There's a decent chance in a guillotine league

40
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: format his owner will get cut this week or cut

41
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: next week, and I can have him back then or

42
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 1: just find somebody else. So I cut him out right,

43
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 1: And even at this moment as we're talking, I don't

44
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: have a quarterback out my roster yet for Sunday. So

45
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,239
Speaker 1: then I actually end up putting a bid on him,

46
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: but a very small bid in case he would like

47
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: get all the way through waivers. Now, the average team

48
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: in this league's got about two fifty dollars out of

49
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 1: their starting thousand left, and one person the winning bid

50
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: seventy one dollars, so about a quarter of his remain

51
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: about a quarter of the remaining fab And I consider

52
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: this to be a slight win right now for me. Now, Lamar,

53
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 1: maybe Lamar Jackson runs for two n on hundreyards and

54
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 1: it looked like an idiot, and you're not starting a

55
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: quarterback this week, so obviously that's bad. I'm going to

56
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: I'm going to find a quarterback this week. I don't

57
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: know who it is yet, but I've got a bunch

58
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,839
Speaker 1: of bids. Pay Maybe we can help you and take

59
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 1: a chance on me. Wouldn't that be perfect? But for

60
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: anybody who thinks that we're all talking no action on

61
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: the whole Savantage drop concert, there you go, you know,

62
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: charge I think that if you're going to put a

63
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: player on waivers or you're going to drop them for

64
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: for your waiver system and guillotines, I think you drop

65
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: them before you have to morning. But but but I

66
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: think that you do that regardless, like like the whole way.

67
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: If you know a guy's not going to be on

68
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: your roster, you drop him right away just to see

69
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: if that name will fetch some dollars. You're trying to

70
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: get people to spend those bucks. Yeah, and I've done

71
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: that the key, the key receivers, I've dropped our chase

72
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: and Mike Williams was in a guillotine again. I'm talking

73
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: guillotine format where you just you know, you're my visions

74
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: like two and three weeks out. That's that's the lot is.

75
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: That is doesn't matter to me. And those guys have yielded.

76
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: You know, people spend big money on those players. Yeah,

77
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: and they're gonna burn a roster spot on him for

78
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: a long time. All right, let's get right into the matchups.

79
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: Let's begin with Scott Rams taking on the Bucks. Rams

80
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: running back position is to It's it's a mess, Yeah,

81
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a mess. I'm gonna the Ronney Rivers

82
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: thing from last week. Darrell Henderson came into the game.

83
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: He was sick all week. There was a little tiny

84
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: amount of expectation out there that he would be limited

85
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: and a guy like Ronnie Vers could get some run.

86
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: I I did, he just didn't do anything. Yeah, I

87
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: think that was a one week old nominly. Now we're

88
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 1: sitting on a week where Kiren Williams is getting you know,

89
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: teased as a pregame activision activation not activision, that would

90
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: be an old game system. Um cam akers. Yeah, I

91
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: liked chopper command as a chopper command. I think it

92
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: was chopp lifter chopper command. I love I love when

93
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 1: misspeaking everyone on a tangent cam. Hackers is backpracticing with

94
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: the team and he might be active. But assuming that

95
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: all stands as it currently sits as we record this,

96
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: I have Henderson with a C grade. He The problem

97
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,840
Speaker 1: is he is going to split touches. He's only had

98
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: six of the running back touches once this year, so

99
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: he splits every game even when he's healthy. It's a

100
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: decent matchup though against the Bucks, do you who We've

101
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: we've mentioned a few times in this show it's not

102
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: the stout rundee of old. They've allowed a hundred fifty

103
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 1: plus total yards each of the last two weeks. But

104
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: Henderson's gonna split, So I can only give him a

105
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: C right here, makers lurking right, and every everyone lurking.

106
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: But as I just mentioned, it doesn't matter. It can

107
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 1: be Ronnie Raber, Rivers and Malcolm Brown. He splits every

108
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: game no matter what. He doesn't get over. So in

109
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: the Rams passing game, I have Stafford with a B.

110
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 1: The Bucks allowed five of the last six quarterbacks to

111
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: have multiple scores. Stafford only has one game one multiple

112
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: score game this season, but he's been a borderline lock

113
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: for two three hundred yards each game. And I think

114
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: this is a little bit of a get right here

115
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 1: where he'll get that yard edge, he'll get one of

116
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: two scores that's right in that B grade range. Maybe

117
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: you know, maybe a high sea what is that Brian

118
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,599
Speaker 1: called an ectos cooler? Yeah, yeah, But no, I have

119
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 1: a beyond him. Tyler Higbee's all getting also getting to

120
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: be for me. He's a averaging seven targets per game.

121
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: Tight ends with that level of targets against the Bucks

122
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: have averaged six catches for sixty yards. That's B bordering

123
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: on a level. If they score and half of the

124
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: tight end half of those tight ends that did that scored,

125
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: sounds like you should just make him an A. Yeah.

126
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: I suppose the Bucks have allowed four touchdowns in the

127
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: last five games. They're the fourth thesist against. You know,

128
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll do it. But

129
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: you know, with six teams on by, there's let's do it.

130
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: I don't like doing it, but I guess I'll do it.

131
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: Uh over on the bottle. I didn't even do the

132
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: wide receivers. Let's do the wide receivers quickly. Yeah, Cooper, well,

133
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: I got two grades. I got Cooper cup with his

134
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: usual A. I don't care if he tapes up his

135
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 1: ankle and he's like slightly hobbled, he's still gonna find

136
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: ninety five yards in a touchdown hobbled. I don't know

137
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: how he does it. He just does it. As for

138
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson, he's got a C grade for me. Here's

139
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 1: what number two wide receivers have done against the Bucks

140
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,239
Speaker 1: average of four and a half catches in sixty yards.

141
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: Four of those eight that the eight Number two receivers

142
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: they played scored. Uh, there's B level grades all over

143
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: the map. As the second receiver against the Bucks, so

144
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: that's why I have Robinson as and especially if Cup

145
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: becomes slightly a decoy, then Robinson might see a little

146
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: more action. But that's it. In the passing game. You're

147
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: way more optimistic about Allen Robins. Yeah, I feel like

148
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: it's a C grade. It's barely anything. It's a C

149
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: grade with six teams on buy is what it is.

150
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: On the other side, I have a B grade on

151
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: bout on Tom Brady. Since Josh Allen tor up the

152
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: Rams and the opener, the Rams have only allied Loud

153
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,119
Speaker 1: five passing touchdowns and an average of hundred and seventy

154
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: two yards per game. That's terrible, but it was against

155
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: Ayota and Cooper Rush and Jacob Easton and p J.

156
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: Walker and Jimmy g a couple of times, and it

157
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: was statistically the softest quarterback schedule based on what those

158
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: quarterbacks have done outside of the game they played against

159
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: the against the Rams, so it's a it was a

160
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,239
Speaker 1: pretty easy schedule. Brady's second in the NFL, and passing

161
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: he's gained two two four yards per game. Uh, the

162
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: problem is he's not scoring multiple touchdowns. I have him

163
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: with one to two in this so I got him

164
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: with a B grade. Evans and Godwin Evans, I got

165
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: the A grade god when I got the B grade.

166
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: Evans has twenty six targets in the last two games,

167
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: five of those reds on targets. Godwin has twenty four.

168
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: They're two of the top five target getters in the

169
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,319
Speaker 1: NFL and the last for the last two weeks. Evans

170
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: has a third of Brady's touchdown passes and has top

171
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: ninety five yards and three the last five. That's why

172
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: he is getting the A grade. Wow, Jalen Ramsey has

173
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: been awesome. Get this. I'm still games. Jalen Ramsey's averaging

174
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: one catch for six yards in his coverage and you

175
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: can't can inch me. He's gonna be anywhere else besides

176
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 1: Mike Evans. I don't think you're giving that matchup between

177
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: all right. I have a tough time believing the force

178
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 1: fed targets aren't gonna get and Evans has a height advantage.

179
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: I feel like Evans can still do it against Ramsey.

180
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: I we should look up Ramsey and Evans prehistorical stats

181
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: there Um god with with B grades six plus catches

182
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: in all five games since returning from injury. The problem

183
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: is he's not getting the yardage. It's only one game

184
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: over seventy five yards, so he's got a B level

185
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: floor for me there. I do have Otton and Braid

186
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,719
Speaker 1: on the bench. The rams are number one against the

187
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: tight ends, and Brad might come back which will limit

188
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: them both. Otton would be an interesting dart throw if

189
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: he's the sole guy, but I'm on the bench for now.

190
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 1: But in the running game for Net's the only guy

191
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: I have with a grade. Uh, it's a B grade here.

192
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 1: Rams d is top five against running backs, not allowing

193
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: a hundred yard rusher. H Christian McCaffrey, however, tore him

194
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: up in back to back games, and four Net can

195
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 1: catch the ball quite a bit. He's in eight team

196
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: plus touches. Uh, He's got a pre grade just on volume,

197
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: in the fact that he gets a lot of pass

198
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: game work. Rashad Whites on the bench though, only seven,

199
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 1: seven or eight touches in every game since the opener,

200
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: So I'm projecting seven or eight touches here. But he's

201
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 1: been under forty five yards and all but one of

202
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: those games, so I'm gonna keep him on the bench.

203
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: Leonard for NET is not top four yards per carry

204
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: since the season opened. Its volume, it's all volume. It's

205
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: this there's at some point a desperate Bucks team. Unless

206
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: his offense turns around, He's gonna make the change at

207
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: running back. The only two duds on four NET in

208
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,079
Speaker 1: four NET scheduled this season. We're in those blowout games.

209
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: The closer games is where he makes his hay and

210
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: I think this one's gonna be closer. Panthers take on

211
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: the Bengals and this is DJ Moore with one of

212
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: the electrifying touchdowns of the season last week, and I

213
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: kind of like him in a another opportunity spots start here. Yeah,

214
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: he's getting a shocking forty five per cent of his

215
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: team's are yards. That's the most in the league. And

216
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: since Walker has taken over at quarterback, he's only gotten

217
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: better scored in two straight double digit targets and two

218
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: straight teras. Marshall actually getting all the extra snap since

219
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson left home saw nine targets last week, posted

220
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 1: eighties seven yards. Since he is allowing only ten and

221
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: a half wide receiver receptions per game, that's the fifth

222
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 1: fewest in the league. But cornerback Mike Hilton has been

223
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: ruled out. Trey Flowers hasn't practiced all week with a

224
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: hamstring injury. They already lost cornerback A Woozy. A. Yes, Uh,

225
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 1: so we're down to like fourth and fifth and sixth

226
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 1: cornerbacks that are going to be on the field for Cincinnati. Um,

227
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: I'll give d J. More and a here and Terris

228
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 1: Marshall worth a look if you're in a deep league

229
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: and in by week. Hell uh, p J Walker. Next

230
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: Gen stats gives Walker the least time to throw in

231
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: the league this year. Weirdly, Tom Brady is second and

232
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is third. No wonder why they're not having

233
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: a very good season. Uh, it's just not as lucrative

234
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: a matchup as it was against Atlanta last week. Since

235
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: he has only allowed seven passing scores through eight games.

236
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 1: Obviously a lot of corners injured there. I'd want to

237
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: keep Walker on the bench. I could see a C

238
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: grade if you really really need a guy in in

239
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: this weird bye week. Uh. The only other guy to

240
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: start is Donta Foreman, who gets a B grade. Here

241
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: twin one and eighteen rushing yard games since CMC left

242
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: Town added three touchdowns last week. Tuba is already out

243
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: this week as well, so it's all form and this

244
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: week the Bengals are a much tougher tests though. Their

245
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: top ten in yards per carry, rushing touchdowns, and allowed

246
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: com and allowed combo yards to opposing back, so top

247
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: ten in all those categories. On the since side, Joe

248
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: Burrow gets an A grade. Even in the weird loss

249
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: last week to Cleveland, Burrow still put up decent fantasy numbers.

250
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 1: The Panthers have allowed the sixth most completed passes this season,

251
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: in the twelveth most yards, and Marcus Mariott to just

252
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: passed for two fifty three and three. On this defense,

253
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: Burrow can do at least that. Tyler Boyd gets a

254
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: B and t Higgins it's an A. None of the

255
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: Carolina corners are particularly good, and they've been moving Higgins

256
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: around a ten mismatches. I think Horne is really good

257
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: and getting better, and Donte Jackson is a gambler, but

258
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: he can be good too. They're not as good as

259
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: te Higgins, though that's probably true. The Panthers are allowing

260
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: the second most receptions and the eleventh most yards per

261
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: game to the wide receiver position. Hence, I don't think

262
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 1: their corners are all that good. Hayden Hurst startable with

263
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: a C grade. Panthers have given up some big days

264
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: to tight ends in the past few weeks. Some random

265
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 1: guy named Kyle Pitts had eighty in a score last week,

266
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: Kate Otten had sixty four the week before, and Zach

267
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: Ertz had forty seven and to score a few weeks ago. Finally,

268
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon, Yeah, I want to give him an A,

269
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 1: but he hasn't been good all year. He scored three

270
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: times in eight games. His high mark for rushing yards

271
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: is eight two. In the six of eight games he's played,

272
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,119
Speaker 1: he's been held under three point five yards per carry.

273
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: The Panthers are allowing the sixth most comboy yards to

274
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: opposing runners at a hundred and thirty eight per game,

275
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: and they just allowed Caleb Huntley to run for nine

276
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 1: one last week. I'll give him a B and hope

277
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: for the best. But kind of like Leonard four Net,

278
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: I think the end is creeping up on Joe Mixon,

279
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: and if he goes off this week, I would trade

280
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon as soon as I am able. He's uh,

281
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: he's getting a lot more attention in the passing game

282
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: up late. And that first game without Jamaar Chase, what

283
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: do you have like nine targets nine times that Donta Foreman.

284
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: By the way, just because you mean you mentioned him,

285
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: I'll just say this, Uh, donte Foreman has is really

286
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: our lone success story coming off Achilles. Now it's four

287
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: years later. It takes four years, right, but tip of

288
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: the hat to dott a Foreman as the really the

289
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: only running back you can point at and go, here's

290
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: somebody who has salvaged a career. He's running at five

291
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: yards per carry and again four years off. So three

292
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: years from now, cam Acres, James Robinson their back, baby.

293
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: That's right, They're gonna have a great season when we

294
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: come back. Dolphins take on the Bears. Will break down

295
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: Raheem Mostard's prospects and take a chance on me. Nine

296
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: players not normally and you're starting line up in a

297
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 1: brutal bite week. We'll tell you some guys you can

298
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: lean upon who are available in your league. Take a

299
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: chance on me. At nine players not normally and you're

300
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: starting line up. Many of these guys are available on

301
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: the waiver wire. In fact, I think I bet on

302
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: average of seven of these nine are going to be

303
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 1: available on your way. Yeah, let's bed with the quarterback position,

304
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: Scott Fish. I'm going with a trend that started a

305
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: few weeks ago for us. It's played the quarterback that

306
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: plays the Raiders. I'm going with Trevor Lawrence. He's playing

307
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: the Raiders who have allowed multiple touchdowns every quarterback they've faced.

308
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: Trevor is decently most mobile, and they have allowed three

309
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: rushing scores as well. When guys like Andy Dalton and

310
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: Davis Mills and and Russell Wilson can have solid fantasy days,

311
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: you know what each way to didn't get the Russell

312
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 1: Wilson didn't. Yeah, he's averaging more Fantasy points than five

313
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: of the seven quarterbacks who put up those decent days

314
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: so far this this year against the Raiders, Matt, you'll

315
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: take a chance, I mean quarterback. I want to mostly

316
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: point out that Aaron Rodgers is one of nine players

317
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: who might be in your might not be in your

318
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: starting lineup, and one of which who might be found

319
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire, and I might dropped him in.

320
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: Rogers has been mostly bad this year. It might not

321
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: be all his fault. I mentioned that he's had the

322
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: third least amount of time to throw in the pocket

323
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 1: as both of his starting tackles have been injured. But

324
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: he did show a little glimpse of life against Buffalo

325
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 1: last week. And for as bad as he's been, the

326
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 1: Lions defense has been worse. In DFS, You've won a

327
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: lot of money this year if you've just done game

328
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 1: stacks with and against the Lions to A three two

329
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: and three Gno. Three twenty and two plus forty nine

330
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: and one on the ground Carson Wentz even three thirty

331
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 1: seven and three, Jalen Hurts, Kirk Cousins put up good games.

332
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: Plus Rogers has thrown multiple touchdown passes in eleven straight

333
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: games where he started and finished against the Lions, and

334
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: eighteen in his career. Just owns the Lions. Taylor Heineke

335
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: takes on his former team, the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings

336
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: zone defense is very soft at the linebacker level and coverage,

337
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: and that's right on target for Heineke, averaging seven and

338
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: a half yards per attempt. I see a lot of

339
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 1: short completions coming, maybe not the explosive place, but a

340
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: plenty of short ones. The LAS two teams to face

341
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 1: Minnesota have thrown for three hundred twenty six yards and

342
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: four hundred seven yards. Both Terry McLaren and Curtis Samuel

343
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 1: strongly positive matchups. As you will hear in just a

344
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: few minutes, Let's go to the core running back position.

345
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: Let's do it. This is one of those guys that's

346
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 1: probably not on your way for wire anymore after the

347
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 1: trade ditline. But you might be hesitant to start. I'm

348
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: saying you should. Uh. Nahem Hines new running back, pass

349
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: catching running back for the Buffalo Bills. They were desperately

350
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: trying to fill this role over the off season. They

351
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: had j D McKissick as they're they're running back for

352
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: about an hour and a half. Uh. They had Chase Edmonds,

353
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,439
Speaker 1: they were trying to trade four. Uh. They then they

354
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: drafted James Cook that hasn't worked in the past catching

355
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 1: role they wanted. Now they traded for Nahem Binds. The

356
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: Bills are double digit favorites, which should allow the second

357
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: back to get in enough, and the second back is

358
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: top fifty yards in three straight against the Jets. Jets

359
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 1: allowed over five receptions the game, and they just got

360
00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: hit for seven for seventy two by Rumadre Stevens last week.

361
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: By the way, that's that's the game script with the

362
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: Bills is they keep passing, even late in the game

363
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 1: when they're up, and they passed to the running back

364
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: at that point. That's why James Cook has had value

365
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: at the end of the games. Matt, you're take a

366
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: chance of me running back? Uh. The guy that niheim

367
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: Hines left behind in India is Dion Jackson. In Week

368
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: six in the Year of Our Lord two, the Colts

369
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: offense was missing Jonathan Taylor and Nike Mines. That week,

370
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 1: Dion Jackson burst onto the scene had forty two rushing

371
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 1: yards plus a score, added ten catches for seventy nine yards.

372
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: Taylor will miss this week again with injury. Niheim Hines

373
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: is now a Buffalo Bill. Last week and Sam Elinger's

374
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: first start, he relied heavily on Taylor this week. It

375
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,880
Speaker 1: wouldn't surprise me if he does the same thing with Jackson.

376
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: It's tough to run against the Pats, though, but they're

377
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: allowing the eighth most receiving yards to opposing runners this year,

378
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 1: so I think he's still in play. And Jackson has

379
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: been targeted fourteen times. So far this season, he has

380
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: caught fourteen passages. I doubt they throw it to the

381
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: ruin backs throw it to him ten times. They threw

382
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 1: like sixty about sixty times in that game. I don't

383
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 1: know that that happens. Might take a chance to be

384
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: running back is Dontrell Hilliard of the Tennessee Titans taking

385
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: on the Chiefs. Chiefs are a very good run defense,

386
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: and I think they're gonna bottle up to some degree

387
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: anyway Derrick Henry. But you know where they're terrible is

388
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: through the air. Dontrell Hilliard has two games with four receptions,

389
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 1: another game with sixty one receiving yards, and he's got

390
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: a league high time three receiving scores for the running

391
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: back position. The Chiefs are allowing nine receptions for sixty

392
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 1: four receiving yards per game to opposing running backs. I

393
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,439
Speaker 1: would take nine for sixty four from Dontrell Hilliard. The

394
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 1: game script here is likely with the Chiefs getting ahead,

395
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to be in pass mode for at

396
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: least much of this game. Now, Malik Willis is a starter,

397
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 1: all bets are off because they only trusted him to

398
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: throw the ball ten times last week, which is humiliating

399
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: for Malik Willis. We want to be honest about it.

400
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: But as long as it's Matt, as long as we've

401
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: got Ryan Tannehill at under center, Dontrell Hilliard is a

402
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 1: viable player. You don't need to throw against the Texans.

403
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 1: You just have Derrick Henry run for two yards. Problem well,

404
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 1: I mean, and he's been living in practice at the

405
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: end of the week, so I mean, this could this

406
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: could really be a boom if that if he doesn't

407
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: play somehow, let's go to the I meant Derrick Henry

408
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 1: has been living in practice. Yes, I figured that's what

409
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: you met, but for a second I wasn't positive he'll

410
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: certainly play there in this game. Okay, uh, let's go

411
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: to your receiver, Scott. I'm going with Josh Palmer, one

412
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: of the last men standing over there for the Los

413
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: Angeles Chargers. Keenan Allen is going to be out. Mike

414
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: Williams already knows out. Donald Palm is now going to

415
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,919
Speaker 1: be out for weeks apparently with this new hamstring injury,

416
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: so he like he probably wasn't gonna factor anyway. So

417
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Palmer and it's gonna be DeAndre Carter,

418
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be Gerald Everett, and that's about it

419
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: for that. He gets a Falcons matchup who they're just

420
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: getting torched through the yeir Qbs are averaging three yards

421
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,199
Speaker 1: on them. The Falcons have allowed seven wide receivers over

422
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: seventy five yard It's in just the last three weeks.

423
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 1: They're they're getting tors So Josh Palmer, Okay, you take

424
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: a chance for me receiver Matt I got Romeo Dobbs,

425
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: who's only roster and percent of Yahoo leagues at the

426
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,719
Speaker 1: beginning of the week. Allen Lazard and Christian Watson might

427
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: not be ready to return this week. Almost doesn't matter.

428
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: Dobbs has been their best receiver so far. He's had

429
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: touchdowns in three games, including last week, seven or more

430
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 1: targets and four of the last six, and just with

431
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: the eye test, doesn't look like there's a lot of

432
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,880
Speaker 1: players Rogers seems to trust more than Dobbs right now,

433
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 1: facing a Lion's defense that's allowed a hundred and ninety

434
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: three yards per game to opposing wide receivers. So I

435
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 1: think Dobbs gets his first career one hundred yard game

436
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,479
Speaker 1: right this week. Alright, I like calling your shot. Might

437
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: take a chance on the receiver. Is Indianapolis rookie Alec

438
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 1: Pierce going up against the Patriots. Now here's the key

439
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 1: thing you need to know. The Patriots have got one

440
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: elite cornerback, Jonathan Jones, and he's awesome, but he's gonna

441
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: be busy shadowing Michael Pittman. Of course, that's the fu's

442
00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:00,199
Speaker 1: biggest threat. The other outside cornerback is Jalen Mill and

443
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,719
Speaker 1: he's horrible. He ranks his Pro Football Focuses one hundred

444
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,719
Speaker 1: twenty second quarterback fourth from the bottom of your monitor

445
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 1: if you're looking for a hundred and twenty two. He

446
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 1: has allowed the fifteenth most yards per game in his coverage.

447
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: Jalen Mills has so Alec Pierce. He fared pretty well

448
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: with Sam Ellen. You're slinging the ball last week sixty

449
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: five yards and Ellener's first start. So yeah, let's take

450
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: Let's take Alec Pierce as might take a chance on

451
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:30,360
Speaker 1: me receiver. Next matchup up Dolphins taking on the Bears.

452
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: You already know to a waddle Tyreek Hill are all

453
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: A grades two ranks number one in passing yards, number

454
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: three in passing attempts per game, and that there's no

455
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: stopping these guys right now, even though there are some

456
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 1: good matchups on the table. But let me mention this Tyreek,

457
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 1: Hill and Waddle both run out of the slot copiously.

458
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 1: Maybe the league's worst slot cornerback is in Chicago Kyler Gordon,

459
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,479
Speaker 1: who has allowed the most passing yards in the NFL.

460
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: Sticking with the passing game, Mike Kasecki gets a see

461
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: he's fourth red zone targets by tight ends and he

462
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 1: has scored three times in the last three games. The catch,

463
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: of course, with kisek in you know this from years past.

464
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: He's a low volume, touchdown dependent player. The Bears have

465
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: given up the six few ess yards per game to

466
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,920
Speaker 1: tight ends, and the Bears have kept volume low by

467
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: only facing two tight ends, only allowing two tight ends

468
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: to see five or more targets. You need it, You

469
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: need a touchdown here and only because it's a it's

470
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 1: a six team bye week, and by giving a C

471
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,439
Speaker 1: grade on Mike Koseki, and that's the only other dolphin

472
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: that you really care about here is whe Mostard Bears

473
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 1: allowing the fourth most total yards and fifth most touchdowns

474
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: per game to opposing running backs the last two weeks,

475
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 1: Ramandre Stevenson and Tony Pollard have averaged one hundred twenty

476
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 1: three total yards and two scores per game, most of

477
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 1: is averaging seventeen touches as the starter in Miami's reinvigorated offense.

478
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: So plenty of opportunities to do damage here and a

479
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: B grade on Mostard. I don't think Jeff Wilson is

480
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,439
Speaker 1: gonna get enough duty to start him yelling here, and

481
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk more about this Wilson Mostard backfield a

482
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,119
Speaker 1: little later in the show. Chicago side. Let's start with

483
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: Justin Fields, who has finished as a top twelve fantasy

484
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: quarterback in four straight games, including top five finishes the

485
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: last two weeks. We all want Fields to throw more often,

486
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 1: and this might be the chance because Miami owns the

487
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 1: seventh highest opponent passing play percentage. They've also allowed two

488
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: hundred fifty or more passing yards and or multiple touchdowns

489
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,119
Speaker 1: in six the last seven games. Another good start potentially

490
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: coming from Fields here, and he could help out on

491
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: the ground. The Dolphins surrendered one nineteen rushing yards and

492
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 1: a touchdown to the comparable Lamar Jackson earlier this season.

493
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: B grade. I toyed with an A grade justin fields,

494
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 1: but couldn't get myself to do it. Do it, I

495
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 1: can't do it. Chase Claypool gets a C grade with

496
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,400
Speaker 1: five days to learn the playbook. I think. I think

497
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: he's on the field for like thirty snaps, maybe half

498
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: of those total snaps something like that, and some of

499
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 1: those snaps will be designed plays for Chase Claypool, and

500
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: quite possibly in the end zone where claypoo We can

501
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: use this big frame to box out Miami's cornerbacks, particularly

502
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 1: the slightly built Noah ig Binogeny. I think I got

503
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: it right. I don't think, uh, what do you think

504
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: it is? H Yeah, there you go. But yeah, you

505
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: talked to big story until you had the rest of

506
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:27,640
Speaker 1: the letters are silent. It's only reasonable to expect. Perhaps.

507
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: I think you get maybe like three or four receptions

508
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: from Claypool. You hope one of them is a touchdown,

509
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,919
Speaker 1: and that puts him in the C category. In a

510
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: tough bye week, Darneld Mooney also see Until claypools fully integrated,

511
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: Mooney remains the number one option against the Miami pass

512
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: defense that Pro Football Focus ranks third worst in coverage

513
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:51,400
Speaker 1: he'll face off with against undrafted rookie cater cohu Man

514
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,879
Speaker 1: you made that name up plays Ben but don't break coverage,

515
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: allowing at least four receptions in each of his last

516
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: four and fifty nine yards per game, but is not

517
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 1: allowed to score this year. Mooney has not scored a

518
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,160
Speaker 1: touchdown all season. So that's all the more and gimm

519
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 1: is a c grady, although it's a good opportunity. So

520
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: now let's go to Chicago's running backs because this thing

521
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:15,400
Speaker 1: has been an evolving a situation. You've got David Montgomery

522
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 1: and you've got Khalil ground there Herberg. They both get

523
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,439
Speaker 1: C grades. This has turned into an almost even time share.

524
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: Herbert has been more efficient, He's been more explosive. Montgomery

525
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: continues to get goal line work. Herbert's got more yardage

526
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: to Montgomery in three straight games. Herbert is the only

527
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 1: running back in the NFL that is both top five

528
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: in yards before contact per carry and yards after contact

529
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: per carry. Herbert's good. And by the way, those of

530
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: you in dynasty leagues, Empire League's keeper leagues that are

531
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: maybe thinking about Herberts You're starting running back next year? Yeah,

532
00:27:55,680 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: I think I think Montgomery's contract is up to so yeah,

533
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 1: keep that in mind this, You know, if you're already

534
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 1: thinking for next year, Herbert's a good acquisition now, not

535
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 1: when he's everybody knows he's the starter next year. Miami's

536
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: only allowing seventy rushing yards per game, and if that's

537
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: going to be split roughly in half between Montgomery and Herbert,

538
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: there's not a lot there to love. But we'll hope

539
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: for a touchdown for Montgomery because he's getting the goal

540
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,159
Speaker 1: line work. We'll hope Herbert can get maybe forty fifty

541
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,719
Speaker 1: of the total yards and that puts a C grade

542
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: on both of those guys. Our next matchup up is

543
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 1: Raiders taking on the Jaguars. Scott Raiders got humiliated last

544
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: week and there were no points we had from anybody.

545
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: Um everybody started Raiders. It was an embarrassing law and

546
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: Davante Adams came in sick and we thought he'd be

547
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: absolutely fine. It was it was not fine. Uh this one?

548
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: How this one? I got Adams right back to his aid?

549
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,719
Speaker 1: Does happened? Mentioned? He was sick with an illness all

550
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 1: last week, came in sick and apparently you know he

551
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 1: had yards and or scoring every single Gear game lading

552
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: up to that New Orleans game. This might be a

553
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 1: little bit of a squeaky wheel game for the team

554
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: where they please don't play that sound effect. I hate that. No,

555
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 1: I would, I would give it grease if there was

556
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 1: has been decent I actually have Car on the bench,

557
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 1: I have Hollans on the bench. I read for all

558
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: the bench. So maybe maybe it's not as squeaky of

559
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: a wheel game as it sounds. Uh. Let's see, Car

560
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: has just three touchdowns in the last four weeks and

561
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: he's averaging averaging under two yards in that span, which

562
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: is pretty in line with the Jags d recently. Since

563
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: the opener, the Jags have allowed just six passing touchdowns

564
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: in seven games, and three of those came in the

565
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: same game, so only one multiple score game in those

566
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: uh four games under two hundred and five yards. In fact,

567
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 1: I have Car on the bench, had most of this

568
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 1: passing game on the bench. Even though I think Adams

569
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: can find his way to get h his with Waller

570
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 1: out or with with with Waller, it's question whether he'll

571
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: play or not. If he does go, it sounds like

572
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 1: he's gonna go. I have a B grade on him.

573
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: Jacksonville just allowed eighty seven yards to Dulcinich. Right before that,

574
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: they allowed seventy two to Goddard, and those are well

575
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: that was a few weeks ago, but that was the

576
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: only two like commonly started notable fantasy tight ends they've

577
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: even played this year, and both for a commonly started

578
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: tight end anymore. I think he's still pretty commonly when

579
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: he's active and upright, I guess that they probably start him. Yeah,

580
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: I think that. I think maybe draft capital leads people

581
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 1: to continue starting him. Um, that's that's probably I was

582
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 1: gonna I was gonna love. Yeah, I was gonna look

583
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: up to see exactly where his targets feel like they're

584
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: still Yeah, the last few weeks when he's been injured, No,

585
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: but he was. He had over five targets in every

586
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: single game until he got injured. So, uh, Josh Jacobs

587
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: have an age grade on in this one. I think

588
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 1: this is where they likely get something going. It's probably

589
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 1: not going to be in the past game here, but Jacobs,

590
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: like with Adams, I'm willing to throw out last week

591
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: he got twelve. He's still got t of touches, but

592
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: should return to his eighteen touch ways he was in

593
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 1: the previous five. He was chipping in three to five

594
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: catches on top of his eighteen plus. Uh. Jacksonville is

595
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 1: allowing a hundred and thirty five combo yards and a

596
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: touchdown per game to backs and Jacobs gets almost everything,

597
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: so he should he should have a darn near and

598
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: eight getting almost everything. Travis Etna, Yes, man, is he powering?

599
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: He felt Snoop Connor on his heels and he's like,

600
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 1: I gotta make sure. Yeah. Absolutely. On the other side,

601
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: I have a Trevor Lawrences might take a chance on

602
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: me player, because you know, quarterbacks just killed the Raiders.

603
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: Christian kirk b Grade is the only one you can

604
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: trust at wide receiver. He has seventeen targets in the

605
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: last couple of games, and the Raiders give up the

606
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: fifth most yards to slot receivers. He's in the right

607
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 1: spot for B level Day uh day and Marvin Jones

608
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: on the bench. They're taking turns being irrelevant. There a

609
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 1: grade for e t n uh. You just mentioned like

610
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: he gets everything. Twenty seven touches last week, his first,

611
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: his first real game without Robinson. This was a top

612
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 1: ten run day Rundy. But now they're ranked eleventh worst

613
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: over the last three weeks. Uh giving they've given up

614
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 1: two and fifty yards and three scores in the last two.

615
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 1: In fact, Evan Ingram, I have an A grade on charge.

616
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: Do you disagree with that? Evan Ingram A grade? I

617
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 1: think I do disagree, all right. You wanted me to

618
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: push hag me to an A and I like I

619
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 1: like this matchup better alright. He's averaging five catches and

620
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: about fifty eight yards on an averages seven or more

621
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: targets in each of the last four weeks. Impressive opportunity

622
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: here for for him. The only true excuse me, I

623
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: guess I'm getting the wrap up music here. Um. The

624
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: only other true tight end that that played against them

625
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 1: had three for fifty four and a score. Day. I

626
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: feel like it's a good day here for Evan. It's

627
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: like the Oscars. If you spend too long on a matchup,

628
00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:00,040
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, music left the music exactly. But

629
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: when we come back, Packers take on the Lions. We

630
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: already told you Matt likes Aaron Rodgers in this game,

631
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 1: and Romeo Dubb and Romeo Dobbs. There's a there's a

632
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: lot to like from the Packers will talk more about

633
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,959
Speaker 1: that game when we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly.

634
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Charchy in Scott Fish

00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: Fish twenty four and Matt Harrison at Explosive Output. We

638
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: are all thrilling follows and we highly recommended, yes, absolutely true,

639
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: also recommended join a guillotine league. It's not too late

640
00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: to join a guilloteing league. We only have now one

641
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: more like full week. We're gonna do this week, week nine,

642
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: then leading into week ten, and then that's it. We're

643
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 1: done building leagues. But still join a brand news limited

644
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: time only it is, but you still get this week.

645
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: You still get to play for ten more weeks. Next

646
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: week you get to play for nine more weeks of

647
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 1: guillotine league action. They're getting down to guillotinees right now.

648
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: We are effectively making guillotinees at this point. Uh, tons

649
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: of fun, lots of fresh drafts coming and if you

650
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: draft over this weekend, and this would be fascinating. The

651
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: Thursday night points count. Where does Jalen Hurts go? Where

652
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 1: does Dallas Goddard go. Where does Damien Pierce goes? Damien

653
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 1: Pierce the first rounder? I think he I think he

654
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: might be. He is special. We'll talk more about him

655
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: in a few minutes. Let's continue breaking down matchups. Packers

656
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 1: take on the Lions. Matt, you already told us how

657
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 1: much you like Aaron Rodgers, Romeo Dubs. Who else in

658
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: this passing game can we rely upon? Um, there's one

659
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: other guy in the passing game you can rely upon.

660
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 1: That's Robert touny In, tied for first in the league

661
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 1: in next Gen stats separation staff. Yeah, that's weird. Robert

662
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,360
Speaker 1: tunn In open all the time average four points six

663
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: yards away when he catches the ball. That's how far

664
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 1: the defenders are when he catches the ball. He's wide open. Uh.

665
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 1: This week he faces a Lions team that has allowed

666
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 1: the ninth most yards to opposing tight ends and already

667
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 1: five touchdowns to the position in seven games. Uh. The

668
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: other wide receiver Sammy Watkins and Marie Rodgers, who got

669
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 1: the most snaps last week in the absence of Christian

670
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: Watson and Allen Lazard. Now, both Lazard and Watson have

671
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: been limited in practice this week. If Lazard plays. He'd

672
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: probably be worth a C grade in this one, but

673
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 1: the rest are desperation plays if they're active. If Watson

674
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 1: and Lazard don't go, I guess Watkins is kind of interesting,

675
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 1: But just because he's on the field, Aaron Jones, He's

676
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: only facing eight man fronts in four per cent of

677
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 1: his snaps, the lowest amount in the league, and they're

678
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: not handing him the ball enough. Although in fairness, A J.

679
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 1: Dillon's coming off a really nice game last week. I

680
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 1: guess yeah, But the last time Aaron Jones faced the Lions,

681
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 1: it was September. He had a hundred and fifteen combo

682
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 1: yards and four touchdowns. The Lions have allowed the league's

683
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: most rushing touchdowns to opposing backs, So Aaron Jones gets

684
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:20,800
Speaker 1: the fantasy ard vark this week. It also brings A J.

685
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: Dillon into the mix, who did look all right against

686
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: Buffalo last week. I'll give him a C grade in

687
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 1: this one as well. I think he does deserve a

688
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: se right here, and especially if with the potential of

689
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 1: a well, I don't know if we can call anybody

690
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,399
Speaker 1: the Packers, I get I don't think have actually Ken

691
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 1: threatened to blow anybody out, so never mind, probably not,

692
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 1: but this game could be interesting in a lot of ways.

693
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,719
Speaker 1: Detroit's kept it close offensively. Well, let's see. Let's see

694
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,319
Speaker 1: the Detroit side here. Let's start with DeAndre Swift. He

695
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 1: did not practice on Wednesday, he was limited on Thursday,

696
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,799
Speaker 1: but he's trending in the right direction. I'm still going

697
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 1: to give him an A grade here. The Packers have

698
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: been a disaster against the run. Uh They've allowed the

699
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: second most rushing yards in the lead to opposing runners

700
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:05,240
Speaker 1: and a shockingly bad five point one yards per carry.

701
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: I think for that reason, Jamal Williams is a C

702
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: in the revenge game too. You've got the letter grades

703
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: mixed up on these two. Swift touch six times last

704
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 1: week and his head coach says we overworked him. The

705
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: injury is just he's just not ready for the workload. Yeah.

706
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: Background Jared Goffe, he's on the bench. Easy to run

707
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 1: on the pack, really tough to pass. Green Bay is

708
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 1: allowing the second fewest completions and yards per game. This

709
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,840
Speaker 1: isn't the spot to start Goff, but Aman Ross st

710
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: Brown is the receiver you can consider. Josh Reynolds went

711
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: backwards in practice this week. He was limited on Wednesday

712
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: and did not practice on Thursday or Friday. Calif Raymond

713
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 1: has been on the field for percent of the snaps

714
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: or more for three straight weeks, so he's probably the

715
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: other wide receiver. Of course, t J. Hockenson was traded

716
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 1: to the Vikings this week. Brock Wright is the new

717
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 1: starting tight end, but he's not worth rostering. So in

718
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,280
Speaker 1: the games where Hockinson was gone and last year and st.

719
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 1: Brown was the only option, he saw six straight games

720
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 1: of double digit targets, six straight games of eight or

721
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 1: more catches. Five of those six games he scored a touchdown.

722
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,320
Speaker 1: Five of those six he had eighty or more yards.

723
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 1: Even with the tough matchup. Solid be here for a Monroe.

724
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: St Brown. I like it. I think you're onto something there.

725
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: There's there's a nice opportunity for him. Let's go to

726
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: the Vikings taking on the Commanders. We begin with Justin

727
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: Jefferson in a grade, but we're seven weeks removed from

728
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: his last receiving touchdown and that was the opener. So

729
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: last time Justin Jeffery he ran one in like four

730
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 1: weeks ago. But that's it. I think that's something that

731
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: should get corrected in time. Jefferson has been targeted from

732
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: inside the ten yard line, which is as much as

733
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: all the Minnesota receivers combined. So I think the touchdown

734
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,280
Speaker 1: correction is coming, and hopefully it's coming here A grade

735
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 1: on Justin Jefferson. Let's talk about the other parts of

736
00:38:55,800 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: the passing offense from Minnesota, including Adam Feeling. He is

737
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: averaging seven targets per game, and that's substantial enough to

738
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: produce against a suspect Washington secondary. The Commanders have improved

739
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 1: since they benched and then subsequently traded William Jackson. That

740
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,720
Speaker 1: was a that's the old addition by subtraction right there. Um.

741
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 1: This is largely due to a schedule rife with impotent

742
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: passing attacks. However, outside cornerbacks Benjamin st. Juice and Kendall

743
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: Fuller allowing a passer rating of one four between them,

744
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 1: kind of like Feeling here. I can't say that he

745
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 1: gets in the end zone because they're just not using

746
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,800
Speaker 1: him that way anymore. But still a solid fifty to

747
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: sixty yard game probably coming for Adam Feeling and a

748
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: C grade for him. What to do about t J. Hockenson.

749
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,720
Speaker 1: I was talking about this with former Viking Chad Greenway

750
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,879
Speaker 1: on Friday, and he was like, five days. You could

751
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 1: be on the field for half of the snaps in

752
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:50,400
Speaker 1: five days to learn a playbook. But here's the problem.

753
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: The Commanders have been an awesome tight end defense. Get

754
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:56,760
Speaker 1: a load of this. They allow the fourth fewest completions,

755
00:39:57,040 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: the second fewest receptions, the set in fewest yards, and

756
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: the second fewest touchdowns two tight ends just one all year.

757
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 1: Do you think with Hockinson coming in a little green

758
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 1: this week, they use them more in the slot and

759
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,479
Speaker 1: not in line, so he doesn't have the blocking duties. Yeah,

760
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 1: that would make sense, so you know that would you know?

761
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: But I assume that they've faced other tight ends that

762
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 1: have shared up in the slot too, But there might

763
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,320
Speaker 1: be a little more upside. Think there's a little more upside,

764
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 1: and they need they need better touchdown production. I was

765
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 1: just mentioning Delon's not catching touchdowns, Jefferson's not maybe a

766
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: touchdown here, But I can't put his starting grade on

767
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,400
Speaker 1: Hockinson five days into his new team. Uh, he actually

768
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 1: played Washington already once this year. How do you do

769
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,440
Speaker 1: three catches for twenty six scoreless yards? And that's again

770
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 1: why Hopkinson's on the bench this week, Kirk Cousin comes

771
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:46,720
Speaker 1: in with his perpetual B grade. The Commander's secondary improves

772
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,440
Speaker 1: a ton, as I mentioned with William Jackson out, but

773
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,000
Speaker 1: that just means they're non terrible here. This is the

774
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,239
Speaker 1: middle of the pack secondary. The only quarterbacks who have

775
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 1: failed to throw multiple touchdowns against Washington Samuel and earn

776
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: his first start justin fields and Ryan Tannehill. Cousins is

777
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,040
Speaker 1: a better pastor than all of those. I think two

778
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,360
Speaker 1: touchdowns sounds about right for Cousins where he's logging in

779
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 1: most of the time, thirty seven straight games. But they

780
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: touchdown pass for Kirk Cousins sixth longest all time, and

781
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: he's currently on his longest streak all time of throwing

782
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 1: two or less. He hasn't thrown. Yeah, that is that

783
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: is probably true as well. All right, let's get to

784
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 1: the Washington side of this matchup, and I want to

785
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,800
Speaker 1: begin with the running backs in this one. Brian Robinson

786
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: just isn't very good. It's the I want the narrative

787
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: to be that he's great and you know the Hollywood

788
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:38,720
Speaker 1: ending here, but we're not seeing it. He looks slow,

789
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:40,839
Speaker 1: he's not productive, and you'll have to take my word

790
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 1: for it. Here's the stats. He hasn't topped three point

791
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 1: seven yards per carry in any game, and that's terrible.

792
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: Did you see my tweet on him that he that

793
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 1: it reminds me of watching someone play plink. Oh, he

794
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,399
Speaker 1: just runs into the back of one lineman then dead

795
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 1: into the fact of that. That's good, and then I

796
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,279
Speaker 1: do it justin said, and sometimes the tight end just

797
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,360
Speaker 1: keeps running into him. Ron Rivera knows it. He's dropped.

798
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 1: Robinson snaps down to fifteen last week. The only thing

799
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 1: going for him is that he's getting most of the

800
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 1: goal line carries. And that's all your only reason to

801
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: even consider starting Brian Robinson. Antonio Gibson, by the way

802
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 1: bench grade and Robinson. If that wasn't already clear, Antonio

803
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 1: Gibson gets a C grade here. He's clearly better than Robinson.

804
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: He's averaging five point three yards per carry over the

805
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 1: last three weeks, and Gibson has caught a touchdown in

806
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: back to back weeks. And J. D. McKissick is out,

807
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 1: so Gibson's gonna notch some extra receptions there. Last week,

808
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 1: Gibson had seven catches. Minnesota's Pro Football Focus is top

809
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 1: ranked run defense No back his top eighties seven yards,

810
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 1: but defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson is out of this game,

811
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 1: so that could be helpful for Gibson. Almost gave him

812
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 1: a B grade, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

813
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: C grade on Antonio Gibson. Let's go to the passing

814
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: game for Washington Terry McLarin y McLaren and his two

815
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: games with Heinecki. McLaren is averaged five point five receptions

816
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 1: for nine three yards. He's scored once running against the

817
00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: very against running against very good cornerbacks j Or Alexander

818
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,800
Speaker 1: and Stephon Gilmour. He runs from the left side twice

819
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 1: as often as anywhere else, and that puts him into

820
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,719
Speaker 1: a favorable matchup with Cam Danceler. And that is a

821
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: B grade on Terry McLaurin and B grade on on

822
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel. Running from the slot, he goes up against

823
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 1: Minnesota's worst cornerback, Chandon Sullivan. He's allowing the sixth most receptions,

824
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 1: seventh most yards, and the most yards after the catch

825
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 1: of any cornerback. So be great on Curtis Samuel here,

826
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,240
Speaker 1: and a C grade on Taylor Heinekey as I outlined

827
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 1: and take a chance on me as well. J D.

828
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 1: Mckissic is out. Logan Thomas is barely coming back to

829
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 1: the calf injury. John Dotson has been ruled out of

830
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 1: this game. When we come back for our number two

Speaker 1: Church and Scott Fish and Matt Harrison with you. This

838
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 1: is a game we call three Tough Questions. You can

839

Speaker 1: play along see if you can go three and oh

840
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 1: with our panel of experts, Ian Fish, you should pay

841
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 1: attention to see they'll see how many you get right.

842
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,239
Speaker 1: We'll see if you can match wits as well. We

843
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 1: begin with tough Question number one. You hear the shuff

844
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 1: questions common man here exactly? Uh, these are all trade

845
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 1: ramification questions. So that is the theme. Last week we

846
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: had a theme. This week we actually, I think the

847
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 1: last three weeks we've got a theme and three tough

848
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: questions we do not normally have. Tough question Number one,

849
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 1: Jeff Wilson was traded to Miami, where he reunites with

850
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:13,800
Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel. From this point forward is Raheem Moster and

851
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 1: RB one, r B two flex or bench player Scott

852
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 1: So Jeff Wilson is a far bigger threat to most

853
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 1: than Chase Edmunds ever was going to be, So that's

854
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 1: of some concern. McDaniels got the two guys he rotated

855
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: when he was in San Francisco. Two of the guys

856
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:36,879
Speaker 1: he rotated anyway, that said, most of it's performing semi decently. Uh,

857
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 1: and the lead for what's shaping up to be a

858
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 1: top offense that's going to move the ball and be

859
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 1: able to run it a decent amount in games, my

860
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: instinct was to say flex. As I look through the list,

861
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 1: I put him down right around RB twenty one. I'm

862
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,400
Speaker 1: thinking it might be a low end RB two. I

863
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,440
Speaker 1: think talent level is closer to flex, though I'm gonna

864
00:45:56,520 --> 00:46:00,800
Speaker 1: lean high end flex. Okay, Matt for this point forward

865
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 1: is Rahee Mostard and RB one, RB two flex or

866
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 1: bench player right now and PPR he's ranked so he's

867
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:12,359
Speaker 1: already a flex player, UM, and Mike McDaniels has been

868
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 1: very shanahany in his ability to stick with one guy

869
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 1: in the run game. Now, Wilson seems to be the

870
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,839
Speaker 1: clear insurance policy for if and when Mostard gets hurt,

871
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,840
Speaker 1: and he's got a long injury history. But here's the issue.

872
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: The next three weeks the Dolphins faced the third easiest

873
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:31,320
Speaker 1: run team, the second easiest run team, and the easiest

874
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 1: run defense in the league. Mostard probably gets first cracked

875
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:36,239
Speaker 1: to hold the position for the next week or so.

876
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,839
Speaker 1: He should should succeed in those games, which just might

877
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 1: hold Wilson off for the long term. Like I said,

878
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 1: he's already a flex player. I think he just stays there.

879
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:51,000
Speaker 1: Most has run well over the last month, five yards

880
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,799
Speaker 1: and carry and dominating the snaps, getting two thirds of

881
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 1: the work, roughly the same volume that Derrick Henry gets,

882
00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 1: So you know he's he's been getting to I think

883
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: it to beast running back, very similarly built, same same

884
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,319
Speaker 1: usage really, UM, But what we don't know is how

885
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 1: much of that was because Chase Edmonds sucks. Wilson is

886
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 1: far better and a much bigger threat, where Mostard is

887
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,319
Speaker 1: very vulnerable and here's really well on to focus in

888
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: on this question is touchdowns from inside the ten yard line.

889
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: Mostard has four carries, only four and zero touchdowns out

890
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 1: of those four carries from inside the ten and he

891
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,839
Speaker 1: scored just two times all year. And the goal line

892
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,320
Speaker 1: is where it gets very interesting for Jeff Wilson. Wilson

893
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 1: is an effective short yardage ball carrier. He's got eighteen

894
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:37,399
Speaker 1: lifetime carries from inside the five yard line and he's

895
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,440
Speaker 1: scored on almost half of them. Last year, when Wilson

896
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:44,360
Speaker 1: was at San Francisco with Mike McDaniels as his offensive coordinator,

897
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 1: Wilson scored on half of his goal line carries. And

898
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 1: that is meant as long time listeners knows, that's what

899
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,320
Speaker 1: you're gunning for. He's a fifty percent conversion rate into

900
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 1: touchdowns on carries from inside the five yard line. Most

901
00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:59,400
Speaker 1: of injury history has got to be taken into account.

902
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,359
Speaker 1: Here's well because we know most are breaks down most

903
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 1: seasons and then Wilson be ready to go. So when

904
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:09,319
Speaker 1: you factor in the lack of touchdowns, better competition, and

905
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 1: the injury risk for he, Mostard is just a flex

906
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 1: starter across the rest of the season. We ended up

907
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:20,920
Speaker 1: at the same spot, but I was much more glowing tough.

908
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:25,600
Speaker 1: Question Number two From this point forward is new Bears

909
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:29,800
Speaker 1: wide receiver Chase Claypool a wide receiver one. A wide

910
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:33,560
Speaker 1: receiver to flex or bench player. We begin with Matt

911
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:35,960
Speaker 1: this time. We talked about Justin Fields a little bit

912
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:37,840
Speaker 1: and how he's shown some signs of life over the

913
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 1: last few weeks, but he's still only throwing the ball

914
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,880
Speaker 1: more than twenty three times once this season, and twenty

915
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: three times is an insanely low amount. Now, granted, having

916
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 1: weapons might make you throw the ball a little bit

917
00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: more good matchups in the next three weeks with Miami, Detroit,

918
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 1: and Atlanta, but after that the schedule turns absolutely brutal

919
00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:00,080
Speaker 1: for the Bears four top eleven past defenses in the

920
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 1: final five Fantasy weeks. I think he'll get a few

921
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 1: sea grades, but he'll mostly be a bench player for you,

922
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:11,240
Speaker 1: all right, Scott? From this point forward, is new Bears

923
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 1: wide receiver Chase Claypool a wide receiver one wide receiver

924
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,360
Speaker 1: to flex or bench. Yeah, so, first off, can you

925
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 1: guarantee me that Justin Fields is going to actually throw

926
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 1: for over two yards in a game coming up? Because

927
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 1: he hasn't done it yet, and I would really like

928
00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:28,319
Speaker 1: that because that would help. UM I had I had

929
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: I had Claypool in the same exact spot Matt did.

930
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be a flex actually most weeks,

931
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 1: but with a few benches. UM, I'm not sure Justin

932
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:40,279
Speaker 1: fields can support two wide receiver options. He's never done

933
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,879
Speaker 1: it in almost any of the games that he's had

934
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:45,919
Speaker 1: in the first two years. UM, but you only can't

935
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,600
Speaker 1: until you can. I should trademark that you only can't

936
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 1: until you can. UM, He's got Sea level upside and

937
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,279
Speaker 1: this offense if they start to turn it around, I

938
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: can see with the matchups, there's some flex plays, there's

939
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: some bench plays, but overall I'm to give him a

940
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,479
Speaker 1: flex is Russell Wilson you only can until you can't?

941
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 1: There it is? Yeah, I think. So I make him

942
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 1: put that on a T shirt and he'd it to

943
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 1: the Broncos. He's MR unlimited until he can't until he

944
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:18,279
Speaker 1: is limited. Chase Claypool was mostly a bench player while

945
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,280
Speaker 1: he was with the Steelers. UM, So the real question

946
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:25,440
Speaker 1: here is canny advance now to a flex level starter.

947
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 1: Chase Claypool just one touchdown on the season, most of

948
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:30,359
Speaker 1: his games in the thirty to forty yard range prior

949
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:34,240
Speaker 1: to this, So he gets a passer upgrade from Kenny

950
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: Pickett to Justin Fields, which you would not think would

951
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,800
Speaker 1: necessarily be an upgrade, but the way Pickett has been playing,

952
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 1: I think I'd rather have balls coming from Justin fields.

953
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 1: The Bears are ultra incentivized to use Claypool copiously. They

954
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,680
Speaker 1: want to evaluate fields, they have some sense of what

955
00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:54,799
Speaker 1: they've got with him, and the parents aren't exactly dead

956
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:57,160
Speaker 1: for a playoff spot in the wide open NFC, they're

957
00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:01,759
Speaker 1: actually alive. That's a good joke. Church. Now, if we

958
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,320
Speaker 1: were only looking at the immediate games coming up, and Matt,

959
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,480
Speaker 1: I think you broke the code on this. He has

960
00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:10,839
Speaker 1: two strongly positive matchups the rest of the way, their

961
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 1: Week ten and Week eleven that's coming up next week,

962
00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:15,080
Speaker 1: not this week, but the week after that, the week

963
00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:18,240
Speaker 1: after that. But then to your point, there's this brutal

964
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,239
Speaker 1: set of five games which I can't even imagine rostering

965
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 1: him through Jets who have turned into a very good

966
00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:29,239
Speaker 1: past defense. Packers, Bye Week, Eagles, Buffalo. That's five straight

967
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,200
Speaker 1: games which I can't even I don't even want to roster.

968
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 1: Here was my only thought. My thought on the flex

969
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 1: scene for those game script, they're gonna be behind in

970
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,839
Speaker 1: all of them. Now that maybe that ends up helping

971
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:41,839
Speaker 1: out in some of these instants. Um but these are

972
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,400
Speaker 1: great past defenses, and I think mostly he's going to

973
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 1: get bench grades for us. So we will go bench

974
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: grade on Chase Claypool. Number three from this point forward

975
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 1: is new Vikings tight end t J. Hockenson, a top

976
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,719
Speaker 1: five tight end, a top ten tight end, a top

977
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:03,720
Speaker 1: five teen tight end, or worse. We begin with Scott Fish. Yeah,

978
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 1: so he was tight end four at the current point.

979
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,520
Speaker 1: But remember that about six of those fantasy stats came

980
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:13,480
Speaker 1: in one game with a bunch of players out sixty

981
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:18,440
Speaker 1: yards closer. Yeah, but still most of it came in

982
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:21,040
Speaker 1: one game. I don't think he's gonna come close to

983
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 1: touching the Kelsey Andrews um uh. You know, George Kittle

984
00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 1: zach Ertz level. I think five is pretty much out

985
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,440
Speaker 1: of question. I think he's a slight upgrade over Smith,

986
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,360
Speaker 1: you know, in this offense. I think he's going to

987
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 1: be a better red zone weapon, even though the Detroit

988
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: Lions did not use him that way. I think he's

989
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:40,279
Speaker 1: going to be a better red zone weapon than we've

990
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 1: had for at the tight end position. Uh So, I

991
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,759
Speaker 1: feel like he's gonna round out in the six to

992
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 1: ten range. There's a whole lot of players in that

993
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:51,440
Speaker 1: range right now who I don't think are going to

994
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,800
Speaker 1: stay there. So you're saying top ten, top ten, you

995
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 1: have six matt from this point going forward, is new

996
00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: Vikings tight end t J. Hockenson a top five, top ten,

997
00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:04,440
Speaker 1: top fifteen, or worse Fantasy tight end. I'm trying to

998
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,959
Speaker 1: think of the tight ends that I'd rather have over

999
00:53:07,080 --> 00:53:10,400
Speaker 1: t J. Hockenson right now. It's Travis Kelsey obviously, Mark Andrews,

1000
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:15,880
Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard, zach Ertz for sure, God for I know

1001
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 1: those should have those those guys are I meant to add,

1002
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:22,759
Speaker 1: I meant to add, And then we're getting into the

1003
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:27,279
Speaker 1: George Kittle, Kyle Pitts, t J. Hockenson range right there.

1004
00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 1: I think that he's right in there. Uh So, I

1005
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,440
Speaker 1: do think that it's it's probably unlikely that he finishes

1006
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,440
Speaker 1: as the number five tight end, because there's four that

1007
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 1: I like a lot better. But I think top ten

1008
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 1: is very easy for him to do. He now moves

1009
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:43,359
Speaker 1: to a more competent, reliable offense, but one that also

1010
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 1: needs to feed Justin Jefferson the ball, Dalvin cooked the ball,

1011
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 1: Adam feeling the ball, and Kevin O'Connell's two seasons as

1012
00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:54,240
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator in Los Angeles, which I think is highly

1013
00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:59,399
Speaker 1: relevant here. Tyler Higbee was tight ends seventeen and tight

1014
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 1: end eighteen. Hmm. Not ideal. Granted, Hockinson's better than Tyler Higbee.

1015
00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,960
Speaker 1: I think that goes without saying here, but materially enough

1016
00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:12,839
Speaker 1: to move him into like top five category, no chance. Now.

1017
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,160
Speaker 1: In Detroit he was tight end. I had item is

1018
00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 1: tight end five to this point, scottsond tighten four, but

1019
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:20,440
Speaker 1: much of that ranking was the one explosive week what

1020
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:22,880
Speaker 1: you mentioned, and he had had four out of his

1021
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:26,480
Speaker 1: seven games just straight up bad, straight up bad. I

1022
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:28,440
Speaker 1: think top ten is as much as we can get here.

1023
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 1: I expect similar up and down output for Hockinson because

1024
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 1: of the diversity of friends on the offense. Some games,

1025
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 1: the volume simply won't come his way, and you're gonna

1026
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:39,000
Speaker 1: have to make do with some bad games out of

1027
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,720
Speaker 1: Hockinson and then some better games and he will score

1028
00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:44,799
Speaker 1: more touchdowns. We talked earlier when I was breaking down

1029
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 1: the vikings. Jefferson struggles to score, Theeland struggles to score.

1030
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:50,520
Speaker 1: I think that's a lot of why they brought in

1031
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:53,759
Speaker 1: the big body t J. Hockenson. The correct answer is

1032
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:57,439
Speaker 1: top ten already in Fish, How did you do? Did

1033
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:01,759
Speaker 1: you get zero, one, two, or three correct answers from

1034
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:07,080
Speaker 1: the three tough questions? I had two right in one wrong.

1035
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:09,879
Speaker 1: Nice job. That's still a winning record for Ian Fish.

1036
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,640
Speaker 1: Well done, my man. Let's go to our next matchup,

1037
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:16,760
Speaker 1: which is the Bills taking on the the New York Jets. Scott,

1038
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:19,439
Speaker 1: this is a This is a game that features should

1039
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:23,160
Speaker 1: feature a lot of points traditionally, but as we mentioned

1040
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:27,840
Speaker 1: just moments ago, this Jet secondary vastly improved. Yeah, it

1041
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:31,319
Speaker 1: is vastly improved. But we're still not going to give

1042
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,200
Speaker 1: anything less than an ad to Alan or Diggs. You

1043
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:37,839
Speaker 1: can't do that. The question is can you give more

1044
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 1: to Davis, Mackenzie and the other options? Uh? Gabriel Davis,

1045
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 1: I do still have a B grade on despite being

1046
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:47,360
Speaker 1: thirteen point favorites. We've mentioned before in the show and

1047
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 1: many of our shows, the Bills keep passing. Even in

1048
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 1: positive game scripts. He's often the big play guy who

1049
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,560
Speaker 1: scores an unreal rate. He's kept that trend up this year,

1050
00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:00,880
Speaker 1: scoring three times in the last three games. Uh. Mostly.

1051
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 1: A big part of the reason I give Davis to

1052
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:05,720
Speaker 1: be here is in the two two blow up victories

1053
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,160
Speaker 1: he went and one and a hundred and seventy one

1054
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 1: into And you're not benching him because he's the type

1055
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,879
Speaker 1: of guy that on any given week could finish wide

1056
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: receiver one for the week. Here's what he's got that

1057
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 1: in here. Here's the thing about Gabriel Davis. He is

1058
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:21,040
Speaker 1: the rare touchdown dependent wide receiver. When he does not

1059
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 1: score touchdown, his average game is two catches for twenty

1060
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 1: eight yards. And that's how you take an L. So

1061
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 1: I think you still and this is this is not

1062
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:32,680
Speaker 1: a bad secondary. I think you still have to show caution.

1063
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,000
Speaker 1: I have more caution than gave Davis than you do. Yeah. Here,

1064
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,279
Speaker 1: there there was one weather game in there, and yeah

1065
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:41,200
Speaker 1: there's been three. There's one game he didn't play there.

1066
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 1: But yes there's been there's been against him. Obviously, I'm

1067
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:47,160
Speaker 1: not taking and giving him zeros when he didn't play.

1068
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:51,799
Speaker 1: All right over to Isaia mackenzie got him on the bench.

1069
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,720
Speaker 1: Snapshare has gone down Shaquire's has gone up. His volume

1070
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 1: is terrible when he doesn't score. Uh and he scored

1071
00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,080
Speaker 1: actually four times, so that's kept his value up. But

1072
00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,720
Speaker 1: he has just one game over forty yards. The Jets

1073
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:04,919
Speaker 1: do allow the most targets per game to this lot.

1074
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 1: But I do have it. I do have him on

1075
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,799
Speaker 1: the bench. I just he just isn't getting the right

1076
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 1: amount of volume and too much. Dawson Knox C grade

1077
00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:17,080
Speaker 1: three to four catches for five to forty yards every

1078
00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 1: week and you're pretty much every week and you're hoping

1079
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:21,880
Speaker 1: for a score. That's his normal day. But at posing

1080
00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 1: tight ends against the Jets are averaging almost six for sixty.

1081
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 1: That's buoyed by some hard, high target days and those

1082
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 1: high target games. Game games match what Knox has been

1083
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:35,960
Speaker 1: getting tons offense. They haven't a lot of touchdown yet,

1084
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:39,360
Speaker 1: so only a see here um in the running game.

1085
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:41,000
Speaker 1: I had to take a chance on me player of

1086
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: Hinds who I think you know can get can get

1087
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:47,720
Speaker 1: some late game touches in some special pass game work

1088
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:50,440
Speaker 1: during the game. Devin Singletary. I'm only given a C

1089
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,200
Speaker 1: grade though too because of that. He gets a lot

1090
00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:55,120
Speaker 1: more volume in the games. They don't get up to

1091
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 1: big leads, and I think they're gonna get a big

1092
00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 1: lead here. You don't think. So there's thirteen point favorites here.

1093
00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 1: I I respect the Jets defense more than the betting

1094
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,600
Speaker 1: public does. I guess, all right, and and that's very

1095
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 1: possible if I guess once the line on the betting

1096
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,960
Speaker 1: on either side. So maybe they put it there. Uh

1097
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:13,200
Speaker 1: but but if it does become a blow, and that

1098
00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:15,800
Speaker 1: is very possible. With how good this Bill's offense is.

1099
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:19,360
Speaker 1: You saw you saw how they were against the Packers,

1100
00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:23,120
Speaker 1: who also have a very good past defense last week. Um,

1101
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: when they do get up, Singletary starts coming out and

1102
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 1: the backup running get backs come in. He had eight

1103
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,240
Speaker 1: ten touches, eight touches, and seven touches in those two

1104
00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:35,840
Speaker 1: plus score blowouts. Only backs to top seventy yards took

1105
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:39,360
Speaker 1: nineteen plus touches to get there. I don't think Devin

1106
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 1: Singletary gets anywhere near that, So I have a C

1107
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:45,240
Speaker 1: grade on him. Let's go over to the other side.

1108
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 1: Let's just start here. The Bills are top eight against

1109
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,880
Speaker 1: every position, They rank first through eighth and against quarterbacks,

1110
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 1: running backs, watch tight ends. They're they're just good. So

1111
00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 1: you got Wilson on the bench. The bright spot is

1112
00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:58,440
Speaker 1: he's coming up at three and fifty five to score

1113
00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:02,040
Speaker 1: game negative games wrapped. That's nice, But the downside is

1114
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 1: Mahomes and Rogers have had multiple scores against the Bills,

1115
00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:09,080
Speaker 1: but no one else did. Um, not even to not

1116
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: even Lamar Jackson, Like it's a bad spot. Garrett Wilson,

1117
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 1: I am giving a C grade too. I think that

1118
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 1: that's where that comes and play. He's he's he's the

1119
00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 1: target leader for the team. Uh, they've been in those

1120
00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:23,920
Speaker 1: blowouts that there's been an average of forty one passes

1121
00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:26,720
Speaker 1: against the Bills. If if Wilson's throwing that much and

1122
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 1: Garrett and Garrett Wilson is a lead target getter ten

1123
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:31,840
Speaker 1: targets or so, he can do something with it to

1124
00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:35,840
Speaker 1: make a C level grade. Uh. Tyler Conkins C grade

1125
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: on I don't actually love it though. I no tight

1126
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:41,720
Speaker 1: end out of outside of Travis Kelsey is top forty yards,

1127
00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:45,800
Speaker 1: not even Mark Andrews. But Conklin is getting more targets

1128
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:50,320
Speaker 1: than everybody else that except for those two. Um, so

1129
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,280
Speaker 1: I have a starting grade on him, a C grade.

1130
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:56,960
Speaker 1: Conklinand's had five plus catches in in multiple games in

1131
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,920
Speaker 1: a row. Here their yardage total, the yardage totals of

1132
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:04,640
Speaker 1: five plus target guys against the Bills forty three thirty

1133
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:06,919
Speaker 1: nine four to six catches. That's probably what you're gonna

1134
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:10,480
Speaker 1: get out of Conklin just barely startable. Carter and Robinson

1135
01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:13,600
Speaker 1: though they're on the bench up until Aaron Jones last week,

1136
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:16,600
Speaker 1: no other back had topped fifty yards against the Bills.

1137
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:20,080
Speaker 1: These two are not on that level and they're splitting carriers. Yeah,

1138
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 1: it's a bad deal right now. Sad about Briest Hall,

1139
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 1: that's for sure. Although this would have been a tough

1140
01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:27,200
Speaker 1: matchup for Priests Hall too. Yeah, there's nothing to like that.

1141
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:30,120
Speaker 1: Still would have started Priest though. When you come back

1142
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:32,760
Speaker 1: cold steak on the Patriots, Matt will tell you a

1143
01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,240
Speaker 1: little bit more about this new running game without in

1144
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:38,840
Speaker 1: this new offense, without Jonathan and Taylor, what can the

1145
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 1: Colts get done? Sam Ellinger and Dion Jackson just the

1146
01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:44,800
Speaker 1: way we will for this season Togo for the Colts.

1147
01:00:45,440 --> 01:01:15,400
Speaker 1: Stay tuned for that and more. Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome

1148
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:19,800
Speaker 1: back Fantasy Football Weekly, Scott Fish, Matt Harrison with you,

1149
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:22,320
Speaker 1: I am Paul Charchi. In We've got a big block

1150
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:24,360
Speaker 1: of matchups for you, beginning with the Colts taking on

1151
01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 1: the Patriots. Matt As we were talking about going into

1152
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 1: the last break. I don't think any of us saw

1153
01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:34,200
Speaker 1: scenario coming. Nobody where it would be mid season and

1154
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:38,120
Speaker 1: it would be Sam Ellinger handing off to Dion Jackson. Yeah,

1155
01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 1: everybody thought it would be the first, the first. He's

1156
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:43,920
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor and Matt Ryan all first names there by

1157
01:01:43,920 --> 01:01:47,880
Speaker 1: the way. No, but but they're all gone, So Jonathan

1158
01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 1: Taylor out, hence Dion Jackson. As might take a chance

1159
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:52,640
Speaker 1: of me running back Zack Moss, by the way, the

1160
01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:55,040
Speaker 1: new backup in India. I wouldn't start him this week,

1161
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 1: but if he's available in your league, there might be

1162
01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 1: a little tiny premature speculation. Angle. That's okay, Uh, Sam Ellinger,

1163
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:07,280
Speaker 1: I want to give him a see here, but I'm

1164
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:09,840
Speaker 1: gonna leave him on the bench. Uh. The angle is

1165
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:12,360
Speaker 1: the Pats are easier to pass on than run on,

1166
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,720
Speaker 1: and New England has allowed the second most quarterback rushing

1167
01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:19,640
Speaker 1: yards this year. But the Slinger only took off six

1168
01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:22,240
Speaker 1: times on the ground last week and only got fifteen yards.

1169
01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 1: He is known to be fleet of foot, but he

1170
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 1: didn't flash all that much in last week's game versus Washington,

1171
01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:31,080
Speaker 1: and that's an easier matchup than against Belichick. Michael Pittman

1172
01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 1: just a C grade here. Alec Pierce is on the

1173
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:35,640
Speaker 1: bench this week. Pittman had a couple of drops last

1174
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:39,120
Speaker 1: week and key situations. Maybe the chemistry between him and

1175
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:42,160
Speaker 1: Ellinger just isn't there yet. Either way, the Pats have

1176
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:44,880
Speaker 1: only allowed four touchdowns to wide receivers all year and

1177
01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:48,640
Speaker 1: are allowing only eleven catches to the position per game.

1178
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:51,480
Speaker 1: Over on the other side, there's some more interesting players.

1179
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:55,560
Speaker 1: Romandre Stevenson very interesting for me. Yeah, I love it.

1180
01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:58,640
Speaker 1: He gets an A grade here. Damian Harris gets a

1181
01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 1: C grade. Stevenson still dominating the touch count twenty three

1182
01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:05,040
Speaker 1: to thirteen last week. I don't think Harris is even

1183
01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:07,160
Speaker 1: gonna play mad I don't know really, they haven't ruled

1184
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:08,960
Speaker 1: him out, but just you know, you've got almost no

1185
01:03:09,040 --> 01:03:11,320
Speaker 1: practice all week and he just like pops up out

1186
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 1: of nowhere. He's a Patriots questionable. Come on, that could be.

1187
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:17,240
Speaker 1: The Colts are allowing the most running back touches per

1188
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:21,200
Speaker 1: game at thirty, which is translated to forty four combo

1189
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,760
Speaker 1: yards per game to the position. There's plenty to go

1190
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:26,440
Speaker 1: around here. I mean, if Damien Harris is out from

1191
01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 1: Andre Stevenson is through the moon out, he's an art park,

1192
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,400
Speaker 1: that's what he is, just giving out art parks left

1193
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:38,960
Speaker 1: and right. Oh my gosh. Mac Jones, he's the opposite

1194
01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:43,480
Speaker 1: of an art park. He's up bench. The opposite we've

1195
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:46,920
Speaker 1: established is the mongo among the natural predator for the

1196
01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:50,280
Speaker 1: art Okay, so that would be that's wait, what were

1197
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:54,280
Speaker 1: we talking about again, Mac Jones. Patriots receivers have had

1198
01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:56,680
Speaker 1: some of the lowest separation numbers in the league, which

1199
01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:59,360
Speaker 1: is why Jones had little success this year. Hasn't had

1200
01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:01,680
Speaker 1: a multiple touch down game yet this season, only top

1201
01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:04,920
Speaker 1: two or six yards once. Definitely on the bench. Jacoby

1202
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:07,960
Speaker 1: Myers is the only receiver I'd consider here. He'll mostly

1203
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:10,120
Speaker 1: see Kenny Moore in coverage this week, who is the

1204
01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:13,920
Speaker 1: Colt's lowest graded corner by Pro Football Focus. More has

1205
01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:17,280
Speaker 1: allowed a passer rating of one point seven in this coverage.

1206
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:20,080
Speaker 1: And Myers, the guy who could not score a touchdown

1207
01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:22,880
Speaker 1: last year, has scored in three of the last four

1208
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:27,400
Speaker 1: games since returning from injury. So Jacoby Myers strong c

1209
01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:30,040
Speaker 1: grade here, something between a C and a B. If

1210
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:33,520
Speaker 1: there isn't, If anything like that, fine would imagine your letter?

1211
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:37,440
Speaker 1: Do you believe exists between B and C? Is it greek?

1212
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 1: Is it's visit? Is it from Planet Xenon? Yeah? Yeah, okay,

1213
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:48,160
Speaker 1: it's Greek. Let's go to the next Let's go to

1214
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:51,240
Speaker 1: the next matchup, Titans taking on the Chiefs. This is

1215
01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:53,640
Speaker 1: my matchup. Is I want to begin with Derrick Henry.

1216
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:56,600
Speaker 1: Besse is a fascinating one. Now, these seems played each

1217
01:04:56,600 --> 01:05:00,000
Speaker 1: other last year and the Tennessee Titans went into Kansas

1218
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,200
Speaker 1: Itty and gave him a beat down. But it wasn't

1219
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:03,960
Speaker 1: because of Derrick Henry, which is kind of how I

1220
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:07,320
Speaker 1: had remembered it, because he carried the ball twenty eight

1221
01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:11,280
Speaker 1: times in last year's meeting with the Chiefs. But get this,

1222
01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:15,960
Speaker 1: those twenty eight carries for Derrick Henry resulted in eighty

1223
01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:20,160
Speaker 1: nine yards. That's three yards per carry. And the Chiefs

1224
01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:23,000
Speaker 1: run defense is way better now. Chiefs are allowing the

1225
01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:25,840
Speaker 1: sixth fewest rushing yards per game to opposing backs. They

1226
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:29,160
Speaker 1: also allow the most receptions and receiving yards. But Derrick

1227
01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:31,840
Speaker 1: Henry doesn't chip in much through the air, which brings

1228
01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:35,040
Speaker 1: us to Dontrelle Hilliard. I like you guys know, I'm

1229
01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:37,400
Speaker 1: a Dontrell Hilliard fan, and he might take a chance

1230
01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:39,320
Speaker 1: on me running back, and I've got to see grade

1231
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:41,439
Speaker 1: on him for what he can chip in through the air.

1232
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:43,680
Speaker 1: And by the way, we're talking about Dontrell Hilliard sards

1233
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:45,840
Speaker 1: a second. We think of him as receiving back, which

1234
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:50,280
Speaker 1: he is. He's also Pro Football focuses a thranked runner

1235
01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:53,160
Speaker 1: this year now, not on a ton of carries, and

1236
01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:56,120
Speaker 1: he's only got like seventeen carries on the season. But

1237
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:59,360
Speaker 1: Dontrell Hilliard's a good player. The only other out letter

1238
01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:03,120
Speaker 1: grade I've got on any Titan is Robert Woods, a

1239
01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:06,320
Speaker 1: massive disappointment so far this year, with just one touchdown

1240
01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:08,680
Speaker 1: on only one game with more than thirty nine yards.

1241
01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:10,720
Speaker 1: So you're giving him an F. So I'm giving him

1242
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 1: a C grade, although an F grade if if if

1243
01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:16,160
Speaker 1: it turns out that Malik Willis is the starter, then

1244
01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:18,200
Speaker 1: you can't start Robert Woods or any other part of

1245
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:21,959
Speaker 1: the passing um. It's a C grade for garbage time.

1246
01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:25,080
Speaker 1: We'll call it garbage time. If Tannehill starts, he runs

1247
01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:26,960
Speaker 1: from all over the field, but will most often see

1248
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:29,880
Speaker 1: Jalen Watson on the right side. That is a seventh

1249
01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:33,320
Speaker 1: round rookie cornerback who's been pressed into service, yielding three

1250
01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,960
Speaker 1: touchdowns in five games. So in a tough bye week,

1251
01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:40,240
Speaker 1: if Ryan Tannehill starts, go ahead and put a C

1252
01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:43,600
Speaker 1: grade on Robert Woods. That's for Tannehill himself. We're gonna

1253
01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:46,000
Speaker 1: keep him on the bench, looking like a game time

1254
01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:48,920
Speaker 1: decision with his bad ankle. Either way, what are the

1255
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 1: things that gives Tannehill some fantasy viability? Is his ability

1256
01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:57,480
Speaker 1: to run in touchdowns seven touchdowns last year, seven rushing touchdowns,

1257
01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:00,360
Speaker 1: seven rushing touchdowns year before that. But on the ankle injury,

1258
01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:02,800
Speaker 1: that's off the board. So and then you were you

1259
01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:05,080
Speaker 1: run the risk of reinjury here too, So pennels off

1260
01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:08,000
Speaker 1: the board. And then I mentioned this before your Malik

1261
01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:10,880
Speaker 1: willis you're all jacked up for your first NFL start

1262
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:15,040
Speaker 1: and you're allowed to throw the ball ten times. That

1263
01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:18,120
Speaker 1: is an insult. It's humiliating, and I don't think it's

1264
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,680
Speaker 1: as much of an insult as it was. It's so

1265
01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:24,160
Speaker 1: easy to run against the Texans. It's just so easy.

1266
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,560
Speaker 1: He didn't have to do anything else. He didn't run

1267
01:07:26,560 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 1: the ball either. I know you just handed it Terry game.

1268
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:33,000
Speaker 1: Malik willis on the bench if he ends up getting

1269
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:34,240
Speaker 1: the start in this game. Let's go over to the

1270
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:37,840
Speaker 1: Kansas City side. Obviously, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey are

1271
01:07:37,880 --> 01:07:39,840
Speaker 1: A grades here, and they're both ranked number one at

1272
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:43,800
Speaker 1: their respective positions in my rankings. As always a grades,

1273
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,560
Speaker 1: particularly this week. This is a very good Tennessee run

1274
01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:49,640
Speaker 1: defense and a very bad past defense. So love Mahomes,

1275
01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:52,520
Speaker 1: love Kelsey, Juju Smith Schuster all the way up to

1276
01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:56,280
Speaker 1: a B grade. He's commanded at least eight targets in

1277
01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,440
Speaker 1: five of seven games, and similar volumes should provide a

1278
01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:03,120
Speaker 1: very solid and floor for Juju Smith Schuster. Reid moves

1279
01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:05,720
Speaker 1: Juju all over the field. Andy Reid does, but most

1280
01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:07,800
Speaker 1: of his production comes from the right side. But will

1281
01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:12,080
Speaker 1: face struggling rookie cornerback Roger McCreery, who has surrendered two

1282
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:15,200
Speaker 1: scores and a massive seventy eight percent catch rate in

1283
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:17,840
Speaker 1: his coverage. And then that brings us to the rest

1284
01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:21,920
Speaker 1: of the receivers. So now we have Nicole Hardman who

1285
01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:25,920
Speaker 1: had a good game last week, and we have um

1286
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:29,799
Speaker 1: Marques Velda Scantling. Then we have now kid Darius Tony,

1287
01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:33,000
Speaker 1: who they've indicated will be active for this game, so

1288
01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:35,800
Speaker 1: the sky more and yeah, just kind of it's just

1289
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:38,639
Speaker 1: too many guys, and and sure somebody is probably going

1290
01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:42,040
Speaker 1: to get something done here against a bad Tennessee secondary,

1291
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,439
Speaker 1: Titans have allowed the seventh most yards and fifth most

1292
01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:47,000
Speaker 1: touchdowns of the position. And if I had to pick

1293
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:51,400
Speaker 1: one guy to be the dart throw player, wow, I

1294
01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 1: would pick mvs because he runs from the outside, which

1295
01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:57,920
Speaker 1: is as a more stable snap count than Tony and Hartman,

1296
01:08:57,960 --> 01:09:00,080
Speaker 1: who run from the slot a lot, along with juje You,

1297
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,160
Speaker 1: but really, I don't. I don't think you can start

1298
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:05,840
Speaker 1: any of those guys. Also on the bench all of

1299
01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:08,080
Speaker 1: the running backs for the Chiefs. Let's look at how

1300
01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:10,640
Speaker 1: this is devolved into a miserable time share, and none

1301
01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:13,280
Speaker 1: of them look particularly effective. And Tennessee is a very

1302
01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 1: good run defense, Titans allowing the third fewest total yards

1303
01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:20,519
Speaker 1: and touchdowns per game to opposing backs in last year's

1304
01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:23,639
Speaker 1: beating between these teams, the Kansasy Runners is a group

1305
01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:27,639
Speaker 1: land and air total just seventy four yards. If it's

1306
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:30,719
Speaker 1: going to be another seventy four yard issue style game,

1307
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:33,400
Speaker 1: then that you can't start any of the Chiefs running backs.

1308
01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:37,200
Speaker 1: I'm afraid alright, final matchup at this segment, Chargers taking

1309
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:40,360
Speaker 1: on the Falcons, Scott. We've already talked a little bit

1310
01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:43,080
Speaker 1: about the Chargers, Frost and Ekeler. This is an A

1311
01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:46,200
Speaker 1: plus opportunity A plus. It's an art vark game, Matt.

1312
01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 1: It's an art game. You can give out the week

1313
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:56,679
Speaker 1: the top producing running back in Fantasy in the league

1314
01:09:56,680 --> 01:09:59,800
Speaker 1: against the team that just allowed Dionta freaking Foreman to

1315
01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:02,080
Speaker 1: go for a hun and eighteen yards and three scores.

1316
01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:05,519
Speaker 1: Come on, uh, Sonny Michelle, I do have the on

1317
01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:07,479
Speaker 1: the bench, but I get the dart throw. I I

1318
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,639
Speaker 1: get the dart throw here. Team might get the goal,

1319
01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:11,960
Speaker 1: might get some goal on work, but I don't know.

1320
01:10:12,160 --> 01:10:14,719
Speaker 1: I have a bench grade on him in the passing grade.

1321
01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:17,080
Speaker 1: I do have an A grade on Herbert. He might

1322
01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:19,719
Speaker 1: be He's gonna be without Keenan Allen and Mike Williams.

1323
01:10:20,439 --> 01:10:24,679
Speaker 1: He he might also be out be out with have

1324
01:10:24,760 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 1: DeAndre Carter out whom my nine year old passed me

1325
01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:29,600
Speaker 1: a note that he popped up today. Are popped up

1326
01:10:29,600 --> 01:10:32,320
Speaker 1: on Friday with a questionable illness, and that's not good.

1327
01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:34,840
Speaker 1: If he gets sick on Friday, and you never don't

1328
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:37,200
Speaker 1: love that. Yeah, he I had a C grade on

1329
01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:39,400
Speaker 1: him if he plays because everybody else is out. But

1330
01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:42,880
Speaker 1: if he doesn't, just just plot Palmer in there with

1331
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 1: a better grade. I do have an A grade on

1332
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:48,280
Speaker 1: Gerald Everett. Uh. He's the guy more intrigued by five

1333
01:10:48,320 --> 01:10:51,320
Speaker 1: plus catches in four of his last six, fifty plus

1334
01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:54,920
Speaker 1: yards in four games, six plus targets in five games,

1335
01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:57,240
Speaker 1: second on the team in red zone with with red

1336
01:10:57,320 --> 01:11:00,479
Speaker 1: zone targets with eight. The Falcons are allowing near seven

1337
01:11:00,479 --> 01:11:03,080
Speaker 1: catches per game in nearly seventy yards per game to

1338
01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:06,160
Speaker 1: tight ends and Donald Palm. Palm is out for at

1339
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,200
Speaker 1: least a few more weeks. It sounds like with the

1340
01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:12,479
Speaker 1: hamstring injury that he incurred, you know, recently after getting

1341
01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:16,680
Speaker 1: off concussion protocol. Uh. So that's that side. On the

1342
01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:19,000
Speaker 1: other side, Mariotta, I do have a C grade with

1343
01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:21,880
Speaker 1: Chargers a three point favorite something game. It should be

1344
01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:24,559
Speaker 1: a closer one, but the higher and the high the

1345
01:11:24,680 --> 01:11:26,439
Speaker 1: over under is one of the highest of the week

1346
01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:30,200
Speaker 1: at fifty. That should give Mariotta a nice game script

1347
01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:32,960
Speaker 1: to throw more and be you know, try to score

1348
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,479
Speaker 1: a lot of points. He gets a lot of a

1349
01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,719
Speaker 1: lot of work on the ground that keeps him usually

1350
01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:42,680
Speaker 1: in sea level just with his groundwork. Um, there's not

1351
01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 1: a passing unfortunately. Yeah, he's thrown one to two touchdowns

1352
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:47,759
Speaker 1: in all but one game as well, so he's getting

1353
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:49,799
Speaker 1: at least a little through the air for you too,

1354
01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:52,360
Speaker 1: Drake London, I have a C grade on He cooled

1355
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:54,320
Speaker 1: from the start of the season, but he was really

1356
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:56,200
Speaker 1: hot and the start a season when Patterson was there,

1357
01:11:56,200 --> 01:11:59,599
Speaker 1: and Patterson is sounds like he's coming back this week.

1358
01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:03,200
Speaker 1: London still leads the team and target snaps, routes, run

1359
01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:06,000
Speaker 1: everything matchup. His middle of the pack game script should

1360
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 1: be good for uh, good for good for passing game

1361
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,120
Speaker 1: Chargers will now be without J. C. Jackson, which is

1362
01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:15,880
Speaker 1: going to help in the secondary. For it could it

1363
01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:17,960
Speaker 1: could be he really it was. It was a great

1364
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:20,960
Speaker 1: addition in the preseason in the off season, but he

1365
01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:24,639
Speaker 1: was playing poorly, that is for sure. Uh. Cow pits

1366
01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:27,040
Speaker 1: A grade. Pitts has seen fourteen targets in just the

1367
01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:30,559
Speaker 1: last two games, including three end zone looks, and honestly,

1368
01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:33,400
Speaker 1: he was about an inch away, like like a very

1369
01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:38,280
Speaker 1: microscopic inch away from scoring in three straight games. Uh.

1370
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:42,160
Speaker 1: Darren Waller, Travis Kelsey, David and Joeku all had fifty

1371
01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:45,959
Speaker 1: plus days. Dulcitch, in his first ever game unlimited snaps

1372
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,320
Speaker 1: against this Chargers team, had forty four in a score.

1373
01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:50,360
Speaker 1: I got an A grade on him. I haven't ranking

1374
01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,240
Speaker 1: to my top five. This would be very proud of you.

1375
01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:54,640
Speaker 1: Were he here. I know I was. I was channeling

1376
01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:57,400
Speaker 1: him when I said it. Uh, Patterson, I have a

1377
01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:00,160
Speaker 1: B grade on gets a nice spot to come act

1378
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:02,920
Speaker 1: against the sixth easiest matchup for running backs. They're allowing

1379
01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:05,240
Speaker 1: twenty six touches for a hundred and fifty six Comboy

1380
01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:08,759
Speaker 1: yards per game. Patterson had twenty five touch and eighteen

1381
01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:11,200
Speaker 1: touch games earlier in the season when he's when he

1382
01:13:11,280 --> 01:13:14,719
Speaker 1: was healthy. Charges have allowed ten touchdowns to running backs

1383
01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:18,120
Speaker 1: and a hundred plus rusher in four of the last five. Now,

1384
01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:21,479
Speaker 1: if Patterson doesn't go, it's at this point it sounds

1385
01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:24,080
Speaker 1: like he's probably gonna go. But if he doesn't go,

1386
01:13:24,160 --> 01:13:27,720
Speaker 1: I have C grades on both Algaeer and Huntley. Uh.

1387
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,280
Speaker 1: Splitting that work they've shown in pre in the last

1388
01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:33,519
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, getting fourteen sixteen touches each in the

1389
01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:36,519
Speaker 1: same game and Huntley getting the goal line work, Algier

1390
01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:38,320
Speaker 1: getting more in the middlework. I think I have both

1391
01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:42,080
Speaker 1: Sea grades on against this matchup. If if Patterson doesn't go,

1392
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:44,640
Speaker 1: I think Huntley is a sneaky play if Patterson doesn't go,

1393
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:47,479
Speaker 1: since since Huntley gets the gold line and he looked

1394
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:49,639
Speaker 1: better last week, I wouldn't. I would definitely I would

1395
01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:53,240
Speaker 1: put Hunley up. Algier starting himself though he's starting himself again,

1396
01:13:53,640 --> 01:13:55,920
Speaker 1: So wait, wait, are you in a league with Tyler Algae?

1397
01:13:56,000 --> 01:13:58,960
Speaker 1: It might be I might be. Yeah, I don't think

1398
01:13:58,960 --> 01:14:01,480
Speaker 1: I mentioned it out of the show. We also fascinating

1399
01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:04,320
Speaker 1: your ability to continue to join Guillotine Leagues a Guillotine

1400
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:06,080
Speaker 1: Leagues dot Com. It's the freshest new way to play

1401
01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:09,360
Speaker 1: fantasy football. Every week, the low scoring team gets cut

1402
01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:11,080
Speaker 1: from the league and everybody gets a bit on their

1403
01:14:11,240 --> 01:14:13,320
Speaker 1: entire roster. It's a ton of fun I have to do.

1404
01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:17,080
Speaker 1: Is not finished last Guillotine Leagues dot Com. When we

1405
01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:21,519
Speaker 1: come back Premature Speculation, you'll get to hear the players

1406
01:14:21,560 --> 01:14:23,719
Speaker 1: to pick up now that everybody else will be trying

1407
01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:27,559
Speaker 1: to pick up next week. Premature Speculation on Fantasy Football

1408
01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:45,080
Speaker 1: Weekly coming up next final segment Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul

1409
01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:49,400
Speaker 1: Charchi and Scott Fish and Matt Harrison with you. This

1410
01:14:49,479 --> 01:14:54,680
Speaker 1: is a segment that we always start with premature speculation.

1411
01:14:55,240 --> 01:14:58,040
Speaker 1: We give you three layers, you're gonna get more than three.

1412
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:01,919
Speaker 1: Is it concerning that the time machine exploded? It didn't explode.

1413
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:04,680
Speaker 1: That was just the sound of your mind exploding at

1414
01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:07,920
Speaker 1: the end of the brilliance of picking up players one

1415
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,360
Speaker 1: week before the rest of your league is trying to

1416
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:13,000
Speaker 1: pick those players up. Also, not a fan of my

1417
01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:15,720
Speaker 1: brain exploding. Did we get sued for the quantum leap?

1418
01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 1: What is that? Happy? Did not get sued for that?

1419
01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:22,320
Speaker 1: I'm happy to say, Okay, that has not happened to

1420
01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:25,479
Speaker 1: this point. Uh, let's begin with Scott Fish, your premature

1421
01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:28,679
Speaker 1: speculation player. Yeah, I'm gonna go with Elijah Mitchell. John

1422
01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:31,200
Speaker 1: Lynch said this week they felt comfortable trading Jeff Wilson

1423
01:15:31,280 --> 01:15:34,280
Speaker 1: because Elijah Mitchell was pretty pretty close to ready to

1424
01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:37,160
Speaker 1: be back. McCaffrey has been injured quite a few times

1425
01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:39,240
Speaker 1: over the last few years. I'm not calling that or

1426
01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:41,640
Speaker 1: expecting that, but right now, this is the time of

1427
01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:44,080
Speaker 1: year where you see Dion Jackson. You want the backup

1428
01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 1: running backs for these offenses. Elijah Mitchell should be owned.

1429
01:15:47,400 --> 01:15:48,960
Speaker 1: Go get him and make sure he's on your roster

1430
01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:51,800
Speaker 1: before he comes back from injury. Alright, Matt Harrison, your

1431
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:55,240
Speaker 1: premature speculation player in our slack. You pooh pooed this chart,

1432
01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:58,519
Speaker 1: But I've got Isaiah Likely. He's rostered in thirty three

1433
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:01,439
Speaker 1: percent of Yahoo League's fifty five percent of MFL leagues.

1434
01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:03,040
Speaker 1: It should be a lot more, though, because he's the

1435
01:16:03,080 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 1: best remaining receiver in Baltimore. Rashad Bateman out for the season,

1436
01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:09,800
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews looks like he's gonna miss this week. Uh

1437
01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:12,880
Speaker 1: charch will highlights soon a tough tight end defense this

1438
01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:15,759
Speaker 1: week in the Saints. But the and then the Ravens

1439
01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:17,679
Speaker 1: go on by so that might not be a reason

1440
01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:20,439
Speaker 1: to go. That's why I was I'm lukewarmon because I

1441
01:16:20,479 --> 01:16:22,960
Speaker 1: love him as a talent. Isaiah Likely is going to

1442
01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:26,479
Speaker 1: be a factor. So here's the deal. Though you would

1443
01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:29,519
Speaker 1: consider that Likely has lined up as a traditional tight

1444
01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,200
Speaker 1: end only on fifteen percent of his snaps this year,

1445
01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:35,120
Speaker 1: Sixty six percent of his snaps came from the slot

1446
01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:39,000
Speaker 1: nine as a perimeter wide receiver. The Ravens don't use

1447
01:16:39,040 --> 01:16:42,000
Speaker 1: their tight ends like tight ends forty to Mark Andrews

1448
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:44,240
Speaker 1: sixty four targets have been when he's lined up in

1449
01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:48,200
Speaker 1: the slot sixteen of twenty two for Isaiah Likely, he's

1450
01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 1: a big slot wide receiver playing tight end. I think

1451
01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:53,840
Speaker 1: you pick him up and on that bye week after

1452
01:16:53,840 --> 01:16:56,280
Speaker 1: he has a huge game this week, he's gonna have

1453
01:16:56,320 --> 01:16:59,240
Speaker 1: a huge game. Then you trade him on that bye

1454
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:01,840
Speaker 1: week and you can tons of money because then Mark

1455
01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,040
Speaker 1: Andrews will come back. It'll be great. Well, I'm gonna

1456
01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:07,479
Speaker 1: have a different opinion. Yeah you will. And it's not

1457
01:17:07,520 --> 01:17:09,519
Speaker 1: that I don't love Isaiah Likely. That kid is gonna

1458
01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:11,519
Speaker 1: be great. But you may be right that they can

1459
01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:14,360
Speaker 1: support two tight ends. That's possible, and they have to.

1460
01:17:14,680 --> 01:17:17,000
Speaker 1: They don't have anything else. All Right, I've got one too,

1461
01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:20,759
Speaker 1: I got four guys for premature. Just pick one, cover

1462
01:17:20,880 --> 01:17:22,960
Speaker 1: one and you can decide whether or not you you

1463
01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:26,120
Speaker 1: care to roster DeShawn Watson, but if you want to,

1464
01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:29,400
Speaker 1: they reiterated this week that he will be period end

1465
01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:32,240
Speaker 1: of story, the starting quarterback in week thirteen. You're already

1466
01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:34,880
Speaker 1: thinking about the playoffs. You're already thinking about your playoff run,

1467
01:17:34,920 --> 01:17:38,360
Speaker 1: and you want the rare passing running upside of that.

1468
01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:41,519
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson can provide, then you can decide if you

1469
01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:43,720
Speaker 1: want to add him. This would be the time. Next up,

1470
01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:46,599
Speaker 1: Zack Moss is Dion Jackson a lock to hold down

1471
01:17:46,640 --> 01:17:50,280
Speaker 1: the number one running job in Indie. Maybe not. He's

1472
01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:52,760
Speaker 1: three point seven yards per carry right now. Maybe he's

1473
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:54,840
Speaker 1: more of a role player. They traded for Zack Moss

1474
01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:56,680
Speaker 1: maybe at some point and he's got to move to him.

1475
01:17:56,880 --> 01:18:00,320
Speaker 1: You just can't quit Zack Moss. Well, we'll see. I

1476
01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:02,400
Speaker 1: already quit him in all my other leagues, but maybe not.

1477
01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:06,960
Speaker 1: Next up, Julio Jones back healthy. Wait, how many does

1478
01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:10,600
Speaker 1: he get to do? Now? For doing four? Premature speculation?

1479
01:18:10,720 --> 01:18:13,479
Speaker 1: See that other one for next week then, Julio Okay, no,

1480
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:15,600
Speaker 1: the last, the last one. Sure, I'll save it for

1481
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:19,400
Speaker 1: next week. Julio Jones. Russell gage is dinged up. Jones

1482
01:18:19,439 --> 01:18:21,920
Speaker 1: is finally healthy, scored last week, and I don't think

1483
01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:24,479
Speaker 1: the Russell gauge is going to automatically get his job back.

1484
01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:27,760
Speaker 1: Julio Jones is healthy until he sneezes and then his

1485
01:18:27,840 --> 01:18:33,680
Speaker 1: hamstring explodes. No, it's it's usually ankle. It's ale does okay,

1486
01:18:33,720 --> 01:18:36,000
Speaker 1: if he coughs, it's the hamstring. That's what it is

1487
01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:40,559
Speaker 1: cough would be the Hernia just to be clear on Uh,

1488
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:44,320
Speaker 1: turn your head and let's talk about the Seahawks. Oh boy, yeah,

1489
01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:46,439
Speaker 1: let's do that. This is a I'm gonna turn my

1490
01:18:46,520 --> 01:18:48,479
Speaker 1: head to that one and let's stead Yeah, for sure,

1491
01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:51,840
Speaker 1: that sounds good. Seahawks led by your offensive player of

1492
01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:55,200
Speaker 1: the month, Gino Smith. Think about Gino Smith as he

1493
01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:57,679
Speaker 1: takes on the Cardinals. Yeah, well, these two teams met

1494
01:18:57,680 --> 01:18:59,519
Speaker 1: in Week six, just a couple of weeks ago, so

1495
01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:02,280
Speaker 1: I'll refer it's that a fair amountain this matchup. Gino Smith.

1496
01:19:02,720 --> 01:19:04,479
Speaker 1: He gets an A grade in this one. Had kind

1497
01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:06,240
Speaker 1: of a rough go in the prior meeting, only one

1498
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,000
Speaker 1: through the air. He did add forty eight yards on

1499
01:19:09,040 --> 01:19:12,519
Speaker 1: the ground. The Cards have allowed at least twenty rushing

1500
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,559
Speaker 1: yards to a quarterback in four straight weeks. That includes

1501
01:19:15,640 --> 01:19:20,280
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton and Kirk Cousins, not known for the Arizona

1502
01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:22,400
Speaker 1: is also allowed the fifth most passing yards in the

1503
01:19:22,479 --> 01:19:25,320
Speaker 1: league this year at two one per game, hence the

1504
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:29,599
Speaker 1: A for Gino. Dk Metcalf and Tyler Lockett both get bees.

1505
01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:32,240
Speaker 1: They were locked down in the first meeting, but each

1506
01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:34,640
Speaker 1: score touchdowns last week, and despite both being on the

1507
01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:38,519
Speaker 1: injury report. In week eight, both saw at least eight targets,

1508
01:19:38,920 --> 01:19:41,800
Speaker 1: and it looks like Markue's Goodwin is going to miss

1509
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:44,200
Speaker 1: this week with a groin injury, and Metcalf and Lockett

1510
01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:47,839
Speaker 1: are not on the injury report. Locket average is receiving

1511
01:19:47,880 --> 01:19:51,559
Speaker 1: an average cushion of seven point nine yards on his targets.

1512
01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:54,080
Speaker 1: They're playing so far back on him. That's the high

1513
01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:56,560
Speaker 1: one of the highest marks in the league. They're respecting

1514
01:19:56,560 --> 01:19:59,920
Speaker 1: the deep speed. In the past, he's absolutely torched the Card.

1515
01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:02,479
Speaker 1: Let's see if he can repeat it this week. Noah

1516
01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 1: Fant gets a C. That's the the ludicrous I'm gonna

1517
01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:09,960
Speaker 1: give give Noah Fant a ce Brian loves that one.

1518
01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:13,320
Speaker 1: Uh six catches for forty five yards in the prior meeting.

1519
01:20:13,640 --> 01:20:16,640
Speaker 1: The Cards are maybe the worst tight end defense in

1520
01:20:16,640 --> 01:20:19,720
Speaker 1: the league, unless the Seahawks say, hold my beer. In

1521
01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:22,800
Speaker 1: the last two weeks, the Cards have allowed four touchdowns

1522
01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:26,439
Speaker 1: to the tight end position. Finally, ken Walker the third

1523
01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:33,800
Speaker 1: he gets an A grade. He's yep, he's scored. It's

1524
01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:37,400
Speaker 1: so jarring when R. E. M comes on in my ears, Yeah,

1525
01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 1: get used to it. I guess uh scored in every

1526
01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:42,559
Speaker 1: game as a starter, including the game in Week six

1527
01:20:42,560 --> 01:20:44,600
Speaker 1: against the Cardinals where ended up with a hundred and

1528
01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:48,120
Speaker 1: ten combo yards and a touch. On the other side,

1529
01:20:48,200 --> 01:20:50,920
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray gets a B. He ran ten times for

1530
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:53,360
Speaker 1: a hundred yards in the week six meeting, and the

1531
01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:56,640
Speaker 1: Seahawks have actually not done well against running quarterbacks. They

1532
01:20:56,680 --> 01:20:59,000
Speaker 1: have allowed the ninth most rushing yards to the position.

1533
01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:02,920
Speaker 1: Rushing score is to Marcus Mariota and Jimmy g There

1534
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:05,559
Speaker 1: middle of the pack past defense, Kyler should be fine,

1535
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:09,920
Speaker 1: although his average intended air yards is only six point

1536
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:13,200
Speaker 1: six that's fifth lowest in the league. But that bodes

1537
01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:15,960
Speaker 1: well for Rondale Moore, who I'll give a C grade

1538
01:21:15,960 --> 01:21:18,600
Speaker 1: two here. In the first meeting he saw ten targets

1539
01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:21,320
Speaker 1: turned in six catches for forty nine yards. Last week,

1540
01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:23,960
Speaker 1: he was heavily involved against the Vikings. Things are kind

1541
01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:26,479
Speaker 1: of trending the right way for Rondale Moore, so I

1542
01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 1: kind of like him here. Deander Hopkins gets an A grade.

1543
01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:32,920
Speaker 1: Let's just say double digit receptions triple digit yards in

1544
01:21:32,960 --> 01:21:35,280
Speaker 1: both of his games this year. He's been fantastic and

1545
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:39,000
Speaker 1: his one handed snare for the touchdown last week was awesome. Yeah,

1546
01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:40,760
Speaker 1: he's good. He doesn't look like he lost a step

1547
01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:44,679
Speaker 1: at all. Maybe those performance enhancing drugs are worth Maybe

1548
01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:47,120
Speaker 1: people should take those. Take six weeks off, you come

1549
01:21:47,120 --> 01:21:51,960
Speaker 1: in fresh and enhanced. It seems I like it. Zach

1550
01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:54,840
Speaker 1: Ertz gets an a grade. Seven catches for seventy yards

1551
01:21:54,840 --> 01:21:57,599
Speaker 1: in the first meeting on ten targets. In the last

1552
01:21:57,800 --> 01:22:01,479
Speaker 1: seven games, seven different tight ends have had double digit

1553
01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:05,200
Speaker 1: PPR points days against the Seahawks. That's why they're holding

1554
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:08,240
Speaker 1: the beer of the Cardinals right now. Finally, the running

1555
01:22:08,240 --> 01:22:11,880
Speaker 1: backs James Conner or is it you know? Benjamin Connor

1556
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:14,559
Speaker 1: still limited in practice with a rib injury. Even if

1557
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:17,479
Speaker 1: he does play, he's not been good this year. The

1558
01:22:17,520 --> 01:22:20,799
Speaker 1: only thing more disappointing is Eno Benjamin doing nearly nothing

1559
01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:23,639
Speaker 1: with his opportunity to shine. In the weeks six meeting,

1560
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:26,200
Speaker 1: Eno managed to take eight teen touches and turn it

1561
01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:30,160
Speaker 1: into a whopping sixty five yards. That's not good. Uh,

1562
01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:32,840
Speaker 1: the matchup is positive. The Seahawks are allowing the fourth

1563
01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:35,439
Speaker 1: most Comboy yards to the running back position this year,

1564
01:22:35,680 --> 01:22:37,599
Speaker 1: and a running back is scoring an average of one

1565
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 1: touchdown per game. So I guess if Connor is active,

1566
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:44,360
Speaker 1: he gets don't do it? You know, don't do it there. Yeah,

1567
01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:46,320
Speaker 1: let's keep him on the bench there. It's just a

1568
01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:48,559
Speaker 1: gross running game. It has been all year. It is.

1569
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:50,880
Speaker 1: They can't they can't block for either runner, neither ones

1570
01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:54,000
Speaker 1: performing very well. I think that's the right answer. Monday

1571
01:22:54,080 --> 01:22:57,519
Speaker 1: night's game is Ravens at Saints. Let's let's talk this through.

1572
01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:00,679
Speaker 1: I've gotten a bunch of people king at my play

1573
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:03,479
Speaker 1: rankings available for free kioteen leaks dot com. Oh, bunches

1574
01:23:03,520 --> 01:23:05,960
Speaker 1: of them are looking at right now. Why is Lamar

1575
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:08,800
Speaker 1: Jackson so low on your rankings? Do you really expect

1576
01:23:08,840 --> 01:23:12,120
Speaker 1: me to start justin fields over Lamar Jackson. You're you're hilarious.

1577
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:14,400
Speaker 1: You you did the sabotage drop and suddenly you just

1578
01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:17,479
Speaker 1: hate Lamar Jackson. Well, you know, here's the thing you're

1579
01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:21,040
Speaker 1: trying to will it into existence. Last Here's here's his

1580
01:23:21,160 --> 01:23:24,919
Speaker 1: last five starts for Lamar Jackson. He's been quarterback eleven,

1581
01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:31,160
Speaker 1: quarterback twenty three, quarterback eleven, quarterback sixteen, quarterback nineteen on average.

1582
01:23:31,200 --> 01:23:33,840
Speaker 1: Whoever else you have on your roster has been a

1583
01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:37,760
Speaker 1: better starter than Lamar Jackson for five straight weeks. Okay,

1584
01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:40,960
Speaker 1: without Bateman and Andrews, I don't know how you trust

1585
01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:44,040
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson beyond the rushing element, and the passing has

1586
01:23:44,080 --> 01:23:47,519
Speaker 1: been bad for over a month. Since Week three, Lamar

1587
01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:53,400
Speaker 1: Jackson's average passing line one hundred seventies seven yards and

1588
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:58,360
Speaker 1: a score. That's it, and that's terrible. He's such a

1589
01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:02,639
Speaker 1: good runner though, sure his rushing creates a solid floor,

1590
01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:05,719
Speaker 1: but he hasn't scored a rushing touchdown in five games.

1591
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:09,360
Speaker 1: In his typical fifty rushing yards, that's five fantasy points.

1592
01:24:09,400 --> 01:24:12,599
Speaker 1: That's not making up for the lack of passing. Lamar

1593
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:16,760
Speaker 1: Jackson c grade in this game sea level. Now, as

1594
01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:19,920
Speaker 1: I mentioned, Bateman's out anders not expected to play. Let's

1595
01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:22,639
Speaker 1: talk about Devin DuVernay. I think you can give him

1596
01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:27,120
Speaker 1: a start, but maybe let's watch Marshawn Latimer because the

1597
01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:30,639
Speaker 1: Saints secondary without Latimer has been bad. When they had

1598
01:24:30,720 --> 01:24:33,960
Speaker 1: Marshawn Latimer, they were good. So if Latimer comes back

1599
01:24:33,960 --> 01:24:36,679
Speaker 1: in this game, and as of right now, we don't

1600
01:24:36,680 --> 01:24:40,040
Speaker 1: know for sure. The Saints just shut down Davante Adams,

1601
01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,640
Speaker 1: but in the three games prior to that they were

1602
01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:45,800
Speaker 1: getting torched, they've given up three yard to one hundred

1603
01:24:45,840 --> 01:24:48,960
Speaker 1: yard games to receivers and six touchdowns. In the previous

1604
01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:52,439
Speaker 1: three games to wide receivers. If Latimer is out, that

1605
01:24:52,479 --> 01:24:56,320
Speaker 1: plushes Pulse in a dabo into starting territory, and he

1606
01:24:56,560 --> 01:24:59,519
Speaker 1: is awful. He's allowed four scores in five games in

1607
01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:03,679
Speaker 1: a past rating seven, which is approaching perfect at that point.

1608
01:25:03,960 --> 01:25:07,040
Speaker 1: So do DuVernay gets a C grade here. Let's talk

1609
01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:10,640
Speaker 1: through Isaiah Likely. You're probably starter in place of Mark Andrews.

1610
01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:13,080
Speaker 1: He's probably the best overall receiver on this team. But

1611
01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:16,519
Speaker 1: the Saints have allowed the fewest fantasy points to tight ends.

1612
01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:18,680
Speaker 1: They've not given up a touchdown to a tight end

1613
01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:21,360
Speaker 1: all year. And what's more, they're allowing an average of

1614
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,400
Speaker 1: less than twenty nine yards per game two tight ends.

1615
01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:27,599
Speaker 1: That's it. I've got a C grade on Isaiah Likely

1616
01:25:27,600 --> 01:25:30,240
Speaker 1: and that's all I can muster here. And then Kenyan Drake,

1617
01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:33,200
Speaker 1: assuming Gus edwards Um does not end up going in

1618
01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:35,920
Speaker 1: this game, Kenyan Drake should get most of the carries.

1619
01:25:36,040 --> 01:25:37,840
Speaker 1: Drake has seen at least fifty eight percent of the

1620
01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:39,960
Speaker 1: snaps and two of the last three, and in those

1621
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:43,439
Speaker 1: games he's averaged eleven touches total yards and a score.

1622
01:25:43,680 --> 01:25:45,720
Speaker 1: Saints are good, not great run defense. If you're in

1623
01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:47,759
Speaker 1: a bye week pinch. You could do worse than Kenyan

1624
01:25:47,800 --> 01:25:51,559
Speaker 1: Drake if Gus Edwards does not go all right on

1625
01:25:51,640 --> 01:25:55,400
Speaker 1: the saint side, Alvin Kamara obvious A grade, especially with

1626
01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:58,599
Speaker 1: the far better play over the last month when healthy.

1627
01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:01,920
Speaker 1: With Dalton under center, he's been a lot better of late,

1628
01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:04,680
Speaker 1: So then that brings us to an A grade with

1629
01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 1: Camara C grade on Taysom Hill. Tayso Hill remains the

1630
01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:12,160
Speaker 1: most unconventional tight end ever, and it is true targets

1631
01:26:12,240 --> 01:26:15,439
Speaker 1: last week we're a season high. But he's tied for

1632
01:26:15,479 --> 01:26:18,479
Speaker 1: the most touchdowns among tight ends with seven so far,

1633
01:26:18,800 --> 01:26:21,720
Speaker 1: so he's a total wild card. Baltimore's defense has given

1634
01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:24,519
Speaker 1: up four touchdowns to tight ends, so let's give Taysom

1635
01:26:24,600 --> 01:26:27,200
Speaker 1: Hill a C grade in this one. Andy Dalton gets

1636
01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:28,840
Speaker 1: a C grade. If you're in a bite week pinch,

1637
01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:30,439
Speaker 1: you could try him. He was might take a chance

1638
01:26:30,439 --> 01:26:33,280
Speaker 1: on me quarterback, and Chris o Lava gets a C

1639
01:26:33,479 --> 01:26:35,759
Speaker 1: grade as well. He's gonna have to deal with cornerbacks

1640
01:26:35,800 --> 01:26:38,080
Speaker 1: Marlon Humphrey and Marcus Peters on the outside. We were

1641
01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:41,639
Speaker 1: playing extremely well until allowing Mike Evans and Chris Godwin

1642
01:26:41,680 --> 01:26:45,240
Speaker 1: to combine for one yards last week, so We'll give

1643
01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:48,240
Speaker 1: Chris O lave A a C grade here in the

1644
01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:51,320
Speaker 1: hopes that he's able to u able to perform well

1645
01:26:51,400 --> 01:26:54,919
Speaker 1: as the probable recipient of most of Andy Dalton's targets.

1646
01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:58,559
Speaker 1: Who that was a lot of talking right there. Here's

1647
01:26:58,560 --> 01:26:59,880
Speaker 1: where I want. Here's what I want to know from

1648
01:26:59,880 --> 01:27:02,439
Speaker 1: you guys. Give me the week in which Jonathan Taylor

1649
01:27:02,439 --> 01:27:05,160
Speaker 1: gets shut down. Give me a week number for Jonathan

1650
01:27:05,160 --> 01:27:08,559
Speaker 1: Taylor when he gets shut down for the season. What

1651
01:27:08,680 --> 01:27:12,000
Speaker 1: week is it? Now? I think I think it's possible.

1652
01:27:12,080 --> 01:27:17,519
Speaker 1: I think it's possible, possible, it just happened. It's interesting.

1653
01:27:17,880 --> 01:27:20,160
Speaker 1: They'll probably lose to the Patriots this week. They got

1654
01:27:20,160 --> 01:27:22,639
Speaker 1: Philly and week eleven, and they got Dallas in week thirteen.

1655
01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:26,599
Speaker 1: Then they have a Week fourteen by. If they're like

1656
01:27:26,720 --> 01:27:29,679
Speaker 1: looking up at Tennessee with a three game lead coming

1657
01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:32,040
Speaker 1: out of the bye, I don't think Jonathan Taylor plays again.

1658
01:27:32,120 --> 01:27:36,040
Speaker 1: That's more more more realistic. And ankle isn't right at

1659
01:27:36,080 --> 01:27:38,320
Speaker 1: week fifteen coming out of the by that's when he

1660
01:27:38,360 --> 01:27:40,280
Speaker 1: gets shut down for the year. I was, ha, it's

1661
01:27:40,280 --> 01:27:42,840
Speaker 1: a very very I was having a fun joke. All right,

1662
01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:45,120
Speaker 1: we're on week fifteen. Jonathan Taylor. We all think he

1663
01:27:45,120 --> 01:27:48,120
