Our guest today is friend of 29 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: the show, Mike Taglier of Pro Football Focus dot Com. Hey, Mike, 30 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: thanks for coming on. No, thanks for having me. It's 31 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: definitely a big It's a big newsweek, so I'm sure 32 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about some of those things cover 33 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: some week eleven action. I'm looking forward to it. So, Mike, 34 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: one of those big stories I heard when I was 35 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: driving home in the car the other day and is 36 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: that Kristin Michael was dropped. I couldn't believe it. I 37 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: had to stop, tweeted out talk to the people at 38 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: my work about it because I was just, so, what 39 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: are they doing dropping this guy? Yeah, No, it's crazy. 40 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: Um I saw it. I was just like, I don't 41 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: know if I expected it, but um, it was definitely 42 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: weird timing. How all of a sudden, they didn't even 43 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: see if Rawls was out there and he was okay. 44 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: It was just more like, okay, Rawless healthy, you're out 45 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: of here, um. But but it was. It really was 46 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 1: awkward timing. I figured they would have at least given 47 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: it a week to see how Rawls did. I don't 48 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: know what the harm was keeping four running backs on 49 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: the roster. Um I don't Alex Collins. I mean that 50 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: that just shows that they like Alex Collins more than 51 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: they do Christen Michael, which is kind of It's kind 52 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: of odd to me. It's very odd. I mean, if 53 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: you look at what Christine Michael has been doing, his 54 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: stats really aren't that great. But behind this offensive line, 55 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: let me just say this, it's the worst offensive line 56 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: in football. Jeff Ratcliff over there at Pro Football Focus, 57 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: he always does this this statistic that I loved, a 58 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: reference in the show yards per carried before contact that 59 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: that shows how talented an offensive line is. In Seattle's 60 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 1: thirty second in the NFL, they allow less then one 61 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: yard per carry before contact, and Christie Michael's still been 62 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: putting up mediocre numbers. He could go to a different 63 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: team and be really useful in the right situation. I agree, 64 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: and that's what a lot of friends have asked me. 65 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: Where do I see him ending up? And you know, 66 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: the logical place would be the Packers, but I don't 67 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: know if they're going to I don't know. I don't 68 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: know what the waiver order is and who's got first 69 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: DIBs at it, because Kristin Michael's not like, it's not 70 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 1: like he's very expensive to sign. So I'm curious to 71 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: see where he lands. There might be teams like the 72 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: Colts that might be interested in him, teams that are 73 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: going to make a playoff push. So I mean, I'm 74 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: interested that I'll say that I wouldn't drop Christin Michael yet, 75 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: I'd wait and see where he goes. But yeah, that 76 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: offensive line in Seattle is great and the worst at 77 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus, and it's really not even that close. 78 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: So for people to judge Russell Wilson in the first 79 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: half of the season almost wasn't fair because just how 80 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: bad that offensive line was, and without his mobility, it's 81 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: hard to make anything happen. So, you know, and I 82 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: was reading and I understand this is controversy, but it 83 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense to me. I was reading 84 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: that you guys named Russell Wilson the mid season MVP 85 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: because that offensive line is so bad and what he's 86 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: doing despite that offensive line, Andy's had a brace like 87 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: everywhere on his body. He's a phenomenal football player. He 88 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: is really something else. He's so fun to watch, honestly, 89 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: and like it stunk to watch him, like, you know, 90 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 1: struggle just a little bit with the offensive line without 91 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: having his legs, but he was like a giant rolled 92 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: duct tape on the field. Wish I wish they would 93 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: have just held him out, But I think it was 94 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: his pride that kind of gotten the way and that 95 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: he wanted to keep going. And I get it. He's 96 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: a hard worker, understand it, but he at some point 97 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: you have to say, are you costing your team wins? 98 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: And you know, seeing that with that offensive line is 99 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: graded by our analysts, no, it probably it may have 100 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: not been on him. It's just more the mobility that 101 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: was limiting him from actually making plays, giving him time 102 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: to make those plays, because as we've seen over the 103 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, he's thrown for over six hundred yards, 104 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: he's got five touchdowns. He's back to being Russell Wilson again. 105 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: So what happens here with this Seattle backfield pro Sis 106 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: who was really good last week against the defending AFC champs. 107 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: But is he going to keep getting carries or does 108 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 1: Thomas Rawles step in and get a lot of first 109 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: and second down touches. I do think that Thomas Rawls 110 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: is going to come in and see a lot of 111 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: the first and second down work. The only thing that 112 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: concerns me is obviously the offensive line. It hasn't gotten 113 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: any better. So they're they're going to use Process more 114 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: as a receiver. I know in the preseason they were 115 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: talking about it a lot to using him lining up 116 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: as a wide receiver, because if you recall, he was 117 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: a wide receiver for a portion of his college career, 118 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: so he can He's more than capable of doing that. 119 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 1: The part where people are kind of overlooking is that 120 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: pro Sis isn't a great pass blocker, which is going 121 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: to keep him off the field and first and second down. 122 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 1: Whereas Rawles, you know we saw last year the kid 123 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: can do it. Like you wondered if the ankle injury 124 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: was going to limit him. Obviously, by the releasing of 125 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: Kristen Michael, they've seen something in him that makes them 126 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: feel good about Rawles going forward. So for me, I 127 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: think it's Rawles, But if you look at their upcoming schedule, 128 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: their schedule is not great for me. Like I, I'm 129 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: okay with Prosise, But if anybody tells you that they 130 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: know how this is going to shake out, I think 131 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: they're they're lying to themselves because it's really just it's 132 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: a difficult situation to predict because they have moved more 133 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: towards a passing offense, you know, whereas with Lynch they 134 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: were more of a run first offense, And you know, 135 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: I just don't with the way the schedule lines up, 136 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: it would make sense for them to pass a lot 137 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: more in the coming weeks. So for me, I think 138 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: Rawles is going to turn out to be a kind 139 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: of like that low end RB two, whereas pro Sis 140 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: is going to be a very solid flex and maybe 141 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: even an RB two and PPR leagues. You know, it 142 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 1: was hyping up both their upside in the preseason, but 143 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: what it comes down to is I don't want to 144 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: own anyone behind this offensive line. I mean, Russell Wilson's 145 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: a different kind of story, but for a running back, 146 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: their upside is it's just limited. It just is, and 147 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 1: so I'm avoiding them both obviously, if you have to 148 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: play them, I think Prosis is a good start for 149 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: one more week in your flex, but I want to 150 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,919 Speaker 1: play Rawle until we see just how much they're going 151 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: to use him. But after that, yeah, he's you've got 152 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: the green light on him, and I don't think you're 153 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: gonna be excited about what you find though. No, I 154 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: agree with you. And it's funny that you actually mentioned 155 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: the whole entire thing because me, I came out with 156 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: my fantasy stock market. It came out yesterday morning and 157 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: my advice in there, and that was before christ and 158 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: Michael was cut, So I don't it wouldn't really change 159 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: too much. But I said that I would trade away 160 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: both of them if you have them, just because I'd 161 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: rather get rid of the headache because the schedule that's upcoming, 162 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: not knowing how they're going to distribute carries. We know 163 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: Rolls can he can catch spalls out of the backfield too, 164 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's just one where I'd rather just avoid 165 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: the headache. And just if you can get top dollar 166 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: for them, awesome, I mean, you don't just give him away, 167 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: but you could probably get a decent coin for them 168 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: right now. So Seattle absolutely lit up Rodkouski last week, 169 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: and I feel bad for laughing, but it was just 170 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: an amazing hit. It turns out he has a punctured 171 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: lung that is pretty serious. Now they're saying he might 172 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: just miss one week, but I'm not buying that at all. 173 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: He's gonna be out for a while, right. No, It's 174 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: funny is Fortunately I have a nurse as a wife, 175 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: and so when she got home yesterday, I brought up 176 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: the whole Gronkowski thing. I was like, he's got a 177 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: punture lung. She's like, no, he doesn't, And I said, 178 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: what are you talking about. Everybody's reporting that he's got 179 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: a punctured lung, and she's like, he would have to 180 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: have a cracked rib in order to do that, and 181 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: they would report cracked ribs. It's more of likely a 182 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: collapsed lung, which just basically the air was let out 183 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: of it, and she's like, he can recover soon from that. 184 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: A punctured lung would require something to puncture it, so 185 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: he would have had a fracture in his rib. So like, 186 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 1: I'm not kidding. I had this conversation with her. I'm like, well, 187 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe he does. And Adam Schefter came 188 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: out two hours later and said, it's not a punctured lung. 189 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: He does have a long injury. They expect him to 190 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: be back within like a week. And she said that 191 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: that's absolutely correct, that he's probably just gonna miss one week. 192 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: So fortunately, my wife, she seems to be smarter than 193 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: I am, and she explained to me that Twitter doesn't 194 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: know everything, and so Rob Gronkowski it should be just 195 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: one week. Unfortunately for him, it's going to be against 196 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, so Martellis Bennett steps in as 197 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: the guy you have to play man. That's a great story, 198 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: by the way, But I tell you why, even if 199 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: I was robbed Gronkowski with that huge body, I think 200 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: I would just stop playing football forever. That is really scary. 201 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: It is it is, But I mean, that guy lives 202 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: and breeds football. Um, he's just he's a fun individual. 203 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people say he's immature in 204 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: this and that, but I'd rather watch him and go 205 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: out there and have fun every single week than watch 206 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: someone that's just strictly business all the time. He's so 207 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: fun to watch and he's he's he's just a monster. 208 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: Um it's impossible to defend a guy that's sta athletic 209 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: at standing at six seven, six seven like that. Guys 210 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: at six two don't move the way he does, which 211 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: is just it's it's crazy. But yeah, I enjoy watching him, 212 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,959 Speaker 1: so I hope he plays for a long time. There 213 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: was a rumor that he might stop after getting sixty 214 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: nine touchdowns. Oh. You know. The thing about Gronk is 215 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: like when he gets worked up, when a team like 216 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals is talking big time trash to him, 217 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: he just takes it to another level and then some. 218 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: So I'm always rooting for someone to do something dirty 219 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: against him so that he can, you know, really turn 220 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: it up and we can see something that we've never 221 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: seen in football before. He is really he is truly 222 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: a unique talent. He really is. He's unstoppable. Like it's 223 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: just something that you can't do even if you put 224 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: your best corner on him. Corners are typically you know, 225 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: right around that six footmark five good luck. That's basically 226 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: ought to say. With Tom Brady's quarterback, it's kind of ridiculous. Um, 227 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: I and people forget too that Rob Gronkowski is also 228 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: one of the best blocking tight ends in football. Like 229 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: it's not like he actually is the best blocking foot 230 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 1: tight end in football. So it's not just he's a 231 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 1: great receiver, but he's all facets of the game. He's 232 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: the best tight end that I've ever seen play the game. 233 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: I wasn't even aware of that. Yeah, it's it's just 234 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: absolutely incredible watching this guy. Now, Jordan Howard for the 235 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears. He left the game with maybe an ankle 236 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 1: and achilles injury. We don't exactly know what it was 237 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: because they're not talking at all. John Fox hasn't given 238 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: us any news. He's this something fantasy owners should be 239 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: worried about, and if so, who's going to get the carries? No, 240 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 1: you shouldn't be worried about it, because so John Fox 241 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: came out afterwards and he said that, and it got 242 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: everybody worried. Um. And then just literally minutes later, Um, 243 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Howard was interviewed and he said, I ain't had 244 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: no injury or so. I don't know who he said it, 245 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: but but the way he said it was basically that 246 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: he is not hurt. He doesn't know what John Fox 247 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 1: is talking about and this just goes back to John 248 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: John Fox. I don't know what's going on in Chicago, 249 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 1: but something weird's going on there between you know, the 250 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: rumors leaking that John Fox said that he was done 251 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: with Jay Cutler while he was injured and that he 252 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: wasn't going to play him again. The only reason that 253 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: he did was because Hoyer, you know, broke his arm 254 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: and is out for the year. And then to hear 255 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: about this this thing, it's it's almost like John Fox 256 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: has lost this team. And I as a Bears fan 257 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: because I'm originally from Chicago, I never wanted the Fox 258 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: hire to begin with. I never he was not. He 259 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: was a five hundred coach before I mean not even 260 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: five coach before him Tebow though he did. But if 261 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: you look at that defense in Denver, it was it 262 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: was something magical. And if you look at i mean, 263 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: obviously they won last year, they won the Super Bowl 264 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: and they did it or not last year if you 265 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 1: go back with Peyton Manning, um, it was last year. 266 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm losing track of time. But when 267 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: you see like kind of everything that's transpired with that team, 268 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, John Fox and Carolina, which is not 269 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: someone that I looked at as like a must have coach. 270 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: And now with Cutler struggling after this game, everybody wants 271 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: to blame him. But at the same time, I think 272 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: he's I think John Fox has just lost track of 273 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: this team. I don't even think he knows what's going 274 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: on anymore. And I'm not worried about Jordan Howard. He 275 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: did practice today in full. I've read that report from 276 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: I think Zach saidman just moments ago. So Jordan Howard 277 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: looks like he's he's gonna be fine, He's gonna play now. 278 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: Dian Lewis, he was back last week, but he was 279 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: he didn't play at all, and he tell us what's 280 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: going on here. Well, the thing is I've been warning 281 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: people about Dion Lewis and that even when he does 282 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:08,599 Speaker 1: come back, we don't even know if he would be 283 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 1: the same player. It's been a really, really weird rehab 284 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: for him. Obviously, there was something wrong with the surgically 285 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 1: repaired to knee that they needed to go back in 286 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: there and do something else. And now that they've I mean, 287 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 1: it took him a while to practice. He didn't practice 288 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: right away. When he was able to to come off 289 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: the pup list, so it took longer than it should have. 290 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: In the meantime, James White has been playing really good football, 291 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: Like if you've been able to watch the Patriots game, 292 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 1: because I go back and I watch all these games, 293 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: and James White is he's a very very good football player. 294 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: And Dion Lewis he kind of he can run the 295 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: ball well, he can receive well, but I think that 296 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: he's caught in the middle here, whereas James White might 297 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 1: be a better receiver than him, and la Garrett Blunt 298 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: is running the ball extremely well. So I don't think 299 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: that they're going to rush to get Dean Lewis back 300 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 1: in the field. And to be honest, I don't even 301 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: know if he's the same player after this. I think 302 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. That's what we've been 303 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: hearing from our injury expert at Fantasy Pros is that 304 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: this Dion Lewis, his injuries pretty serious. He's probably not 305 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: going to be himself the rest of the year. With 306 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 1: that being said, I mean Bill Bilichick even came out 307 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: and said, when you haven't played in the year, well 308 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: you just haven't played in the year. So what it 309 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: comes down to, is they're going to ease him back in. Yeah, 310 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: they've got a nice matchup this week, but you should 311 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: not be playing him until he actually gets some touches 312 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: and we see that he's actually going to be used 313 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: in this offense because what they have right now is 314 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: working and I see no reason why Dan Lewis is 315 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: going to be used this week or he's really even 316 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: fancy irrelevant next week. Agreed for me, if you if 317 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: you have someone in your league that would try and 318 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: trade for him, I would be willing to trade him 319 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: a good time just yeah, just because you just sell 320 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: him on the hype and the fact that he's going 321 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: to be back like they activated him. I'd sell him 322 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: that if you're able to before your trade deadline comes, 323 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: because I don't even know if I would feel comfortable 324 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: even if he's active this week, I don't feel comfortable 325 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: starting him. They're probably gonna blow out San Francisco and 326 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: why rush him back, Mike. Let's move over and talk 327 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: about some of the rankings here for week eleven, and 328 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: you know we've got the obvious guys. Marcus Mariotte again Indianapolis, 329 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson against Philly. We don't need to talk about 330 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: them because everyone should be starting them anyway. Kirk Cousins 331 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: at home against Green Bay's hoard secondary. Well, let's talk 332 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: about a few players that are kind of on their 333 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: fringe though that a lot of people are asking about 334 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: and wondering if they should put in their fantasy lineups. 335 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: We'll start with Dak Prescott face Baltimore. Now, he's been 336 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: really good, but this Baltimore defense is much improved from 337 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: what we've seen in the past couple of years. This 338 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: matchup actually suits Dak Prescott really well. And the thing 339 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: is is, I think Dak Prescott is an every week 340 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: starter ever since his first NFL game against the Giants. 341 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 1: It was a divisional game, you know. In his first game, 342 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: it was it's a tough team to walk into, so 343 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: he didn't have the greatest game against the Giants. But 344 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: since that time, he has totaled at least eighteen draft 345 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: or eighteen Fantasy points in every single game, and he 346 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: did most of that without Dez Bryant. He still hasn't 347 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: thrown for more than two hundred and ninety two yards, 348 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: so he's getting it done in multiple ways with his legs, 349 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: throwing the ball he has multiple touchdowns in each of 350 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: the last four games, including three touchdowns and two of them. 351 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: Like Dak Prescott is so impressive, and this offensive line 352 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: allows him to do the work he does. It allows 353 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott to operate. The reason I love him in 354 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: this game is because Ezekiel Elliott, while I love him 355 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: and you're never going to sit him at all, that 356 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: he's going up against the Baltimore defense that is arguably 357 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: a top three defense against the run. They allowed just 358 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: three point just under three point four yards per carry. 359 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: There's only been one running back all year to average 360 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: more than three point six yards per carry, which is 361 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: just it's a ridiculous stat and honestly one that I'm 362 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 1: just waiting. I would think that Zeke would be able 363 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: to do it, but I think his upside is capped here. 364 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: And you know, throwing out that stat on Dak Prescott 365 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: and how he hasn't thrown for much yardage, it actually 366 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: suits what the Ravens do because dating back to last year, 367 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: the Ravens have held ten of seventeen quarterbacks too fewer 368 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: than two hundred passing yards. So but the thing that 369 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: where they're struggling is the touchdown department. They've allowed sixteen 370 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns over the last eight games, multiple touchdowns and 371 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 1: five of them. I don't think that they have a 372 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: cornerback to matchup, but does Bryant. Jimmy Smith is probably 373 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: going to be the one that they're gonna attempt to do. 374 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: But considering they struggle and allowing touchdowns, and that's where 375 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott and Does Bryant have succeeded. I do like 376 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott a lot this week. Jimmy Smith is a 377 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 1: really physical football player, and that's what gets Dez Bryant 378 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: really involved in games is when he's getting pushed around, 379 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 1: he gets exciting. He goes out there and he competes. 380 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: And when you get a Dez Bryant who's competing, man, 381 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 1: it could be really be something special. Oh yeah. And 382 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: the fact that de Dak offers it with his legs too, 383 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: and like the threat that they can't put a safety 384 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 1: over the top, but does either. It's weird because he's 385 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: averaging eighteen point one yards per reception this year, which 386 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 1: is which is sky high, like his previous career high 387 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: was fifteen. So Deck's targeting him downfield because he's only 388 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: averaging two point six yards after the catch. So it's 389 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:57,959 Speaker 1: really weird the way things have worked out. Does has 390 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: now scored three touchdowns in the last four games. With 391 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 1: Dak progressing, Dez is only going to get better. I 392 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: know his target numbers have been up and down, but 393 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 1: this is a week where I like both of them 394 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 1: just because, like I said, Ezekiel Eliot's going to be 395 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: going up against a really, really tough frun defense. Now, 396 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: one of these quarterbacks it's on the fringe that I'm 397 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: really high on this week is Tyrod Taylor. He's coming 398 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: off the buy. He's at Cincinnati, which isn't the best matchup, 399 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: but if you look at his game log week two, 400 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: twenty five points. Since then, every single week he scored 401 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:31,360 Speaker 1: at least fifteen Fantasy points. That just doesn't happen with quarterbacks. 402 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: He's been remarkably consistent. I think he's a sure bet 403 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 1: to get fifteen plus again, maybe twenty, I would agree 404 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: with you. Actually, and Cincinnati's not the defense that they 405 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: used to be. Each of the last five quarterbacks that 406 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: have played against them, or I should say teams because 407 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 1: Cody Kessler and Kevin Hogan combined, but each of the 408 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: last five teams have combined eighteen points at the fantasy 409 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: at the quarterback position. So the only two quarterbacks that 410 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: haven't totaled eighteen fantasy points against the Bengals this season 411 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: where Ryan Fitzpatrick and Ryan Tannehill. Tyrod Taylor's obviously been 412 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 1: playing a lot better than them. There's actually been four 413 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: games where they've allowed three or more touchdowns. So Cincinnati's 414 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: defense is just not the same. You know, you saw 415 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham put on a show. I know he didn't 416 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: even finish with a hundred yards, but what he did 417 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,400 Speaker 1: to Adam Jones was it should be against the law. 418 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 1: Like that was that was probably the best run like 419 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: route that I've ever seen run in the NFL. The 420 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: way he You're not supposed to be able to turn 421 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: and move that quick and plant your foot and go 422 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: and dance the way he does. I don't know, It's 423 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: just it was ridiculous. But yeah, the Bengals are not 424 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: somebody I'm worried about anymore. It's it's one of those things, 425 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: like every year you have this thought in your mind 426 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: that there's defenses that are just lights out. You do 427 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: you don't want to attack them in fantasy matchups, you 428 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: want to stay away from him. Cincinnati was that team 429 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: last year, and it always takes a little bit of 430 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: a time to warm up to say, Okay, maybe they're 431 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: not the defense that they were in years past. Well, 432 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 1: you know, looking at the season, they are a defense 433 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 1: that you should probably attack in fantasy matchups. Plus, Tyrod's 434 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: averaging forty eight rushing yards over the last four weeks, 435 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: I mean four point eight fantasy points. It's just to 436 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: give me for a quarterback. When he gets that kind 437 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: of production with his legs, yep, yep, his floor is 438 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: super high, so therefore you don't have to worry about 439 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: him busting. Now, on the other end, there's someone that 440 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: experts are expert. Consensus ranking has Blake Bortles number fourteen 441 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: this week at Detroit, And yeah, Detroit is horrid, but 442 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: Blake Bortles might be the worst quarterback in the NFL. 443 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: Is is fourteen too high for him? I think I 444 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: think it's right, It's it's about right. The reason I 445 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: say that is because what I do I cover a 446 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: lot of dfs, and in DFS, he's definitely not a 447 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: cash play, like you don't want to play him in 448 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: like the safe games but if you're playing in a 449 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: tournament and you're looking for upside, he offers it. So 450 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: I think by ranking him at fourteen, you have some 451 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 1: upside built into it, and you also have some downside 452 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: built in where he's still blake portals and he's still 453 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: not a very good NFL quarterback. Speaking of, you know, 454 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 1: running with the legs, I was surprised to find when 455 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 1: I was doing my research on Boordles this week that 456 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: he has actually scored twenty seven Fantasy points with his 457 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: legs this year. And that's more. That's more than I 458 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: would have expected. So he's averaging three Fantasy points with 459 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: his legs. So that's almost essentially a touchdown UM per 460 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: game that he's averaging with his legs. Um. The weird 461 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: part with him that kind of struck me weird because, 462 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: like I said, I did a lot of research on 463 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,640 Speaker 1: him this week. He's hit the three hundred yard mark 464 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: just one time in his last seven games, which was 465 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: something he was doing regularly last year. So, um, Bordles, 466 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: I don't know when everyone, if you if you play 467 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: him this week, I just tell you this, don't watch 468 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 1: the game. Um. That's that's That's the best way I 469 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: could put it because you don't want to see how 470 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: he gets there, but he does. He does score Fantasy points. 471 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: You know, it seems in garbage time and this could 472 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: be one. The thing I would worry about, though, is 473 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,199 Speaker 1: that Detroit is going to get Darius slayback. He's their 474 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 1: top corner. And it seems like DeAndre Levy might come back. 475 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 1: He's been out since Week one and he was kind 476 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: of like the centerpiece of their defense and that's when 477 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: they kind of fell apart. And I think he practiced today, 478 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: so he's looking like it's possible that he plays this week. 479 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: So it's something to monitor. But just know that if 480 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: you play at Blake Bortles, you're you're taking a lot 481 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: of risk. Sleigh is no joke. When I heard that 482 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 1: he was coming back, I moved Alan Robinson down about 483 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: five spots in my weekly rankings. I'm not messing around 484 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: with that guy. Yeah, that's probably a pretty smart thing. 485 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: I think he grated out as a PFF's number two 486 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: corner last year and then he's number eight this year. Yeah, 487 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 1: he's a remarkable talent. Yeah, Mike, let's move over and 488 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: talk about running back in and we've got to start 489 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: with Ryan Matthews. Tug Peterson came out and said Darren's 490 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: roles was the starter. Then they handed the ball to 491 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 1: Ryan Matthews nineteen times for one hundred and nine yards 492 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 1: and two touchdowns. What's going to happen this week against Seattle? 493 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: Is he startable? Is even gonna play? I mean, we 494 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: can't trust anything with Doug Peterson. You know what's funny 495 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: is like so on Twitter, of course everybody after you know, 496 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: you talk about players and you write off players and 497 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 1: things like that. Everybody when someone has a big game 498 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: like Ryan Matthews did last week, a lot of people 499 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: will come out of the woodwork saying, why didn't anybody 500 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: predict this? And this was one where it was impossible 501 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 1: to predict. There was literally no way that you could 502 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: have done it because Ryan Matthews had played just eight 503 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: snaps in each of the last two games. Nobody performs 504 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: on eight snaps. Even if you were to tell me 505 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 1: that he would have played twenty six snaps, I wouldn't 506 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: have felt like like he was a must play. But 507 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 1: he got twenty one touches on twenty six snaps Like 508 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen. Like every snap he was on the field. 509 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 1: Essentially he was touching the ball. And it's funny too, 510 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: because a lot of people last week tried talking to 511 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: me about Darren Sproles and I said that I just 512 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: really couldn't fully trust him, and they're like, well, he's 513 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: a starter, and I said, I wouldn't put it past 514 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson to put Ryan Matthews back in there. I 515 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 1: really wouldn't. And loaning behold it happens. With that being said, 516 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,239 Speaker 1: you can not trust him like at any point, um, 517 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: just because we know what Doug Peterson's doing. He wants 518 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 1: to involve everybody this matchup against Seattle. It's weird because 519 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: each of the last four running backs that have played Seattle, 520 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: they've totaled at least twenty one carries. So it's interesting 521 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 1: it is because that's usually not the case with Seattle. 522 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: But now with Thomas Rawls potentially coming back with Seattle playing, 523 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: they could do more of a ball control style offense. 524 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: For me, Ryan Matthews, you cannot play him. If anything, 525 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: I would trade him away. It's just too frustrating because 526 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: it's not like and I that's that's that was my 527 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 1: response on Twitter, said, you can't predict this game. Ryan 528 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: Matthews has always been a really good running back. It's 529 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: just if you're seeing if you're playing eight snaps, I 530 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,439 Speaker 1: don't care if you're Julio Jones, I'm not playing you. 531 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: There was one expert, just one. I'm doing the Accuracy 532 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: Expert Accuracy Rankings Report right now, and there was one 533 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: expert who recommended starting Ryan Matthews last week. It was 534 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 1: the franchise from NFL dot Com. He had him right 535 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,479 Speaker 1: number twenty one. That's a great call. I don't know 536 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: how he did it, but yeah, I agree with you. 537 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: Trade him now if you can. I'm not starting him 538 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: ECR this week. That's Expert Consensus Rankings. They haven't at 539 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 1: number twenty five. I've got him down at thirty just 540 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: because I can't trust him. Seattle's defenses is really good. 541 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 1: I just I don't think he's gonna get the kind 542 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: of touches he did last game. So I'm recommending away 543 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: from him. Unless you're just in a tough spot, I 544 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 1: would agree with you that. Yeah, there are a lot 545 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: of the production that Seattle has allowed has been receiving 546 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: because they're allowing just over three point four yards per carry. 547 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,919 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm not I'm not playing Ryan Matthews if 548 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: I can help it. This week now, the guy ride 549 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: ahead of him in ECR number twenty four is another 550 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: running back I'm super skeptical on this week. It's James 551 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: Starks for the same reason he didn't really get any 552 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 1: touches last week. I'm not sure they will again this week. Now. 553 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 1: It's a good matchup, but green Bay just seems set. 554 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 1: I'm throwing the ball time. Yeah, I don't think they 555 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: have a choice, green Bay. Their defense is so bad 556 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 1: that they have to throw the ball like. That's why 557 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. I actually said it's funny because right after 558 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 1: it was the Dallas game, I think it was where 559 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: everybody panicked about Aaron Rodgers and they were saying that, 560 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: you know, he's not even a top five fantasy quarterback anymore. 561 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: And I actually viewed it as a possibility to buy 562 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: him because going forward, I saw a lot of pass 563 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: attempts in his future with the way the defense was 564 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: playing and Loan and Behold. Since that time, he's averaging 565 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: over forty five pass attempts per game, which is the 566 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: most in any span over his career. And when you 567 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,680 Speaker 1: give him that many pass attempts it's gonna equal fantasy points. Now. 568 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 1: With James Stark's coming back this year, he struggled to 569 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: run the ball well. He has just seventy five yards 570 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: on thirty one carries, so you would expect him. You're like, oh, well, 571 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: it's Washington, which it is a really good match They're 572 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 1: allowing four point six yards per carry on the year, 573 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 1: They've allowed eleven rushing touchdowns, but they don't allow anything receiving. 574 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: On the year. They've allowed just two hundred and twenty 575 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 1: receiving yards to running backs. No running back has top 576 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: thirty one yards through the air against them. So for me, 577 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 1: James Starks's ceiling is really really capped. Even though this 578 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 1: is a good matchup and I could see Washington hanging 579 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 1: some points on Green Bay. There are a defense that 580 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: has allowed four of the last five teams to score 581 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: thirty or more points against them. The only team that 582 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: didn't score thirty and their last five games was Matt 583 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: Barkley and the Bears. Yeah, yeah, I could see that one. 584 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't see James Starks piling up eighteen 585 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: carries or anything like that. So for me, I think 586 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: he's fine as like a flex play, but nothing more 587 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: than that. You know, Starks can catch the ball to 588 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 1: the backfield too, so I think his floor is pretty high. 589 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 1: But once again, I'm not recommending starting here. There's a 590 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 1: few guys I like more than them that are ranked 591 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: lower in ECR, and one of them is Chris Ivory 592 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: of Jacksonville. We already talked about that game in Detroit's 593 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: defense is really bad. They got a new offensive coordinator 594 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: and he seems to be a guy who wants to 595 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: run the ball. Now, Chris Ivory hasn't been great this season. 596 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 1: The Jacksonville offensive line. There's definitely better ones in the league, 597 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: but I think Chris Ivory is startable this week at Detroit. 598 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: What do you think, Mike? I worry about this one 599 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: just because the only time I want to start Chris 600 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: Ivory is where I see a good game script for Jacksonville, 601 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: and with the way that Detroit's our offense has been playing, 602 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: I think that they're an offense that can give Jacksonville fits. 603 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: The reason I say that is because even though Jacksonville 604 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: has really been coming together as a defense, Jalen Ramsey 605 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: is going to be really good. For a long time. 606 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 1: He's been limiting wide receiver ones on opposing teams, but 607 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: Detroit doesn't really have a wide receiver one. They're not 608 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: gonna put Ramsey on Golden Tate. He's probably gonna match 609 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: up with Marvin Jones because he's the most physical, and 610 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: Golden Tate has been wrecking defenses. They kind of went 611 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: back to what he was doing last year after I 612 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: just see Detroit rather than getting in Detroit a lot. 613 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: I see Detroit putting up points, and therefore it's gonna 614 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: be rough for Chris Ivory to see the field. He 615 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: doesn't really do much work in the passing game. The 616 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: only time he's going to really get on the field 617 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: is when they're in the red zone, and that's far 618 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: and few between for the Jacksonville offense. Now, last week, 619 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: I wanted to like Chris Ivory a lot against Houston, 620 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: and I had some really smart people talk to me 621 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: about it, and they talked me off of it, and 622 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: I'm glad they did, because he turned out to be 623 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: a bust in a great matchup against Houston. It was 624 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: a close game and he still didn't do anything fantasy wise. 625 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: So for me, I don't trust anybody in that Jacksonville backfield. 626 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: The offense that I don't trust anyone in, at least 627 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: in the backfield. Is the New York Giants. Let's see, 628 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: they've got Rashad Jennings and they've got Paul Perkins, and 629 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: I'm not sure who's going to get the carries. They've 630 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: both been getting about eight to ten every week. Is 631 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: that going to keep up? Or is one guy gonna 632 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: take over here? Yeah, this is an ongoing conversation that 633 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: I've been having with Nathan Yankee, my co worker at PFF, 634 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: and he's been really interested in Paul Perkins because you know, 635 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: he's seen his snapcounts rising over the last few weeks. 636 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: And you know, we were excited about Perkins going to 637 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 1: the Giants. We felt like it was a job that 638 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: he can win the air. Where he's been struggling is 639 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: pass protection, and that's why he hasn't. I think that's 640 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: why he never fully took the job. Rashad Jennings is 641 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: one of the better pass blockers in the league, so 642 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: that's why he's staying back there. ELI doesn't have great 643 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: protection upfront, so they a lot of times they'll keep 644 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: Jennings into pass blocks. So I'm with you. I'm not 645 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: a big fan of Rashad Jennings or Paul Perkins right now. 646 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: Until one of them has the clear cut role, I'm 647 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: probably not starting either of them. You know what's amazing 648 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: he's both of these teams we just talked about, the 649 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions and the Newark Giants. I don't think of 650 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: them as really good football teams that are at all. 651 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: They're both in the playoff picture right now. They're number 652 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: four and number five in the NFC, and I'm looking 653 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: at the playoff picture and it just looks ugly all around. 654 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: There's only a couple really good teams. You've got the Chiefs, Pats, Texans, Ravens, Raiders, 655 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: and Broncos in the AFC. I mean, really, the only 656 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: two teams that I think can do damage are the 657 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,479 Speaker 1: Chiefs and Pats. Yeah, it's a weird year in the NFL. 658 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: You don't really know of the standout teams. You're just 659 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 1: like I said, you said, the Patriots are the only 660 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: ones that you'd feel really really comfortable about. I would 661 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: argue that this. I mean, the Steelers seem like they'd 662 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: be a team that couldn't make a run, but they 663 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: would need home field advantage to do it because Ben 664 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,479 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger just doesn't play well on the road. Everybody thinks that. 665 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: You know, everybody knows the Drew Brees splits, but not 666 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: many people know about Ben Roethlisberger and how much he 667 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: struggles on the road. So I Yeah. The thing with 668 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: the Giants though, their defense is really good and they're 669 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: starting to come together like a lot more in recent 670 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: weeks where if Eli Manning catches fire, they're a team 671 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: to watch. Because Eli Manning, we've seen him make runs 672 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: through the playoffs before. Because Eli Manning is he's the 673 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: streakiest quarterback in football. He could look like Blake Bortles 674 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: at times and then sometimes he could look like he's 675 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. And you know, this Bears defense this week 676 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: could be a team that will make him look like 677 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. The Bears defense on the road is averaging. 678 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 1: They're allowing twenty nine points per games. So this should 679 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: be a week the Giants should score a lot of points. Yeah. 680 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: The Giants, their pass rushes is so much improved. And 681 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: you know when they won the two Super Bowls, that's 682 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: what they had going for him. They were closing out 683 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: games because their past rush was able to put pressure 684 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: on the quarterback, and in the recent years that hasn't 685 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: been the case. The quarterbacks have been making comebacks because 686 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,959 Speaker 1: they can't put any pressure on them. So I think 687 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: the Giants are a legitimate playoff team. I just I 688 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: don't see them making any kind of Super Bowl run. 689 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:24,479 Speaker 1: But you know I would have said the same thing 690 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: a few years ago too. Yeah, most likely. Yeah, I 691 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: think we're all in that same boat. You know. The 692 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: one team that really intrigues me is the Miami Dolphins, 693 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people are going to 694 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: kind of cringe when you hear that. They're five and 695 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 1: four right now. JGI is running really well, and their defense, 696 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: I think is turning into one of the top five 697 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: or six defenses in the NFL. And nobody's really talking 698 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: about them. They've been getting better, there's no doubt, like 699 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: their pass rush is getting better. They're I worry about 700 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: their secondary if they're like if they if they play 701 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: a good quarterback and a good wide receiver because their 702 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: schedule has really lightened up over the last month or so, 703 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: so I'm waiting to see them against a really good 704 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: offense before I do that. I mean, this week, they're 705 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: gonna get Jared goff. So they're gonna look great again. 706 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: And it's funny like if you so, if you, if you, 707 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: if someone's listening to this podcast and you know you 708 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: play DFS, a lot of people are going to be 709 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 1: playing in the Miami defense. Um, I would actually look 710 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: on the other side of the ball too, at the 711 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: Rams defense because Ryan Tannehill, Brandon Albert, the left tackle, 712 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: he's going to be out this week. And Ryan Tannehill, 713 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: if there's one thing he struggles with, it's pressure. So yeah, 714 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: it's really it's it's it's pretty remarkable what they've done 715 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: with Jgi and in Miami because he he struggled throughout 716 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: the beginning of some of these games and they continue 717 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: to give him the ball and then he finally just 718 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: breaks it, like he wears down the defense and it's working. 719 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill, I don't think he's thrown more than thirty 720 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 1: three pass attempts since like back in Week three or 721 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: something like that. So, um, they're definitely trying to limit 722 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: the Ryan Tannehill exposure. But they're playing good football, like 723 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 1: like it's smart football. They're doing what they can with 724 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: what they can. But once they run into a good team, 725 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: I just don't think it's going to hold up, Mike. 726 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: Let's move over and talk about some of the wide receivers. 727 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 1: One of the guys on the fringe this week is 728 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: Cameron Meredith with the alshon Jeffrey suspension. ECR has him 729 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: at number thirty four. We already talked about this game 730 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: a little bit at New York Giants. How do you 731 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: feel about Meredith this week? He's one that I'm not 732 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: really too excited about. He's been a full time player 733 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: ever since basically then when everybody was picking him up. 734 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: He's been playing all the snaps. But over the last 735 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 1: three weeks he saw just five targets, So obviously something 736 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 1: between him and Jay Cutler like they don't mesh. He 737 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: doesn't have Jay's he doesn't have his. Jay doesn't have 738 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: confidence in him, is what it comes down to, because 739 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,240 Speaker 1: if anything with Cutler, he has a receiver he trusts 740 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: and a lot of times Hill Pepper that guy with targets, 741 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 1: and it just doesn't seem like Meredith's that guy. All 742 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,240 Speaker 1: of his production in week ten came on the one play. 743 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: It was that the Hail Mary, and that was just 744 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: a crazy play in itself. But for me, I want 745 00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 1: to see it before I believe it with Meredith, so 746 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm not really laying him. He's definitely someone that should 747 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: be rostered at this point because he's the lone, big guy, 748 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 1: number one target. But I think Eddie Royal and Zach 749 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 1: Miller are going to be heavily and I think they're 750 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: gonna start to see an increase in targets as well. 751 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: So I think Meredith might max out around seven targets 752 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,399 Speaker 1: a game. And I just don't know if that's enough 753 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: coming from Jay Cutler, who's very hit or miss. So 754 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 1: would you start players like Corey Coleman and DeVante Parker 755 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: over Meredith um DeVante Parker depends on the matchup. I 756 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: do like Parker's talent, but they're just not throwing the 757 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: ball enough. That's why you're seeing Jarvis Landry his numbers 758 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: come down. They're just not throwing the ball as much 759 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: as they used to. Corey Coleman this week Pittsburgh, Yeah, 760 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: this week, I probably would play Corey Coleman over Cameron Meredith. 761 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: I just want to see it first with Meredith before 762 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: trusting him. All Right, let's talk about Tyree Hill. He 763 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 1: is a really special player. Andy Reid called his speed freaky. 764 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 1: He just watch this guy play. He's He's something we 765 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: haven't seen since Dante Hall, Devin Hester. He is just 766 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: a unique talent. He's really something special. And he gets 767 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, who has a horrible defense. Now you want 768 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 1: to know that because they scored twenty four fantasy pointing 769 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,760 Speaker 1: into Jay Cutler last week. But I think Tyreek can 770 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 1: still put up fantasy points even if Jeremy Macklin comes back. Yeah, 771 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: but it seems like Maclin's not going to He's still 772 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,799 Speaker 1: not practicing, so I would assume that Jeremy Macklin's out 773 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: for at least another week. Jeremy Macklin hasn't even been 774 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 1: the Jeremy Macklin that we've known we've come to know 775 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,759 Speaker 1: over the last few years. So the thing I worry 776 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,919 Speaker 1: about with Tyreek is that he still hasn't played any 777 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 1: more than sixty percent of the snaps. Now he's getting 778 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: production in different ways, like it was touchdowns, because at 779 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,800 Speaker 1: one point he was catching a touchdown every six targets, 780 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 1: which is just out of this world. But the one 781 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: thing that I'm telling people to keep in mind is 782 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: that he's had just two weeks with more than thirty 783 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,879 Speaker 1: eight yards, and if Jeremy Macklin's out, he's definitely someone 784 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 1: that you would definitely consider. But just just understand that 785 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some volatility there. But you know, the 786 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 1: argument that can be made is that there's volatility with 787 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: anyone in that wide receiver three range, and maybe they 788 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: don't come with as much upside as Tyreek Hill, because, 789 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, Tampa Bay is a funnel defense. They 790 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,959 Speaker 1: stopped the run pretty well, so it could be another 791 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 1: week where Tyreek Hill does you know, maybe he I 792 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: don't know if he catches ten passes again, but he's 793 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 1: definitely starting to see more targets, so he's He's definitely 794 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: someone you could put in your line up and hope 795 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: that you get the upside out of him. At least 796 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 1: ECR has him at number thirty seven. And the thing is, 797 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: if I'm looking for a playmaker, a big home run threat, 798 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,800 Speaker 1: I think I'd rather have Will Fuller at Oakland or 799 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 1: maybe even Sammy Coates at Cleveland. And ECR has them 800 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: both all the way down at fifty one and fifty eight, 801 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: and Tyreek's all the way up at thirty seven. I'm 802 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: not really sure that I understand that, but I you know, 803 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 1: I think if you're in a deeper league, yeah, you 804 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: can flex him. But other than that, I'm not trusting 805 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: him this week. I think the worries with Fuller is 806 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: his injury and whether or not he's going to play. 807 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: It seems like he's going to, but he's been battling injuries. 808 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: Will Fuller he's a weird one. He hasn't he hasn't 809 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: top thirty. I think he's top thirty one on yards 810 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 1: just one time in his last like six games, So 811 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: he's worry Sammy Coates. The reason I think he's solo 812 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 1: is it came out that he's got two broken fingers. Now, um, 813 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 1: he only played, Yeah, he only broke two snaps. He 814 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: only played two snaps last week. Um, so I don't 815 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: know if he broke his finger when he was dropping 816 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:20,359 Speaker 1: one of the passes that Roethlisberger threw his way. But um, yeah, 817 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: Sammy Coates, I just don't even know if he's gonna 818 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: play at this point. Yeah, and that makes a lot 819 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 1: of sense. What about Eli Rodgers. If Sammy Coates is 820 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: out at Cleveland, how do you feel about him this week? 821 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: I think that's the weird part. With me is like, 822 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: I'm a I'm an Eli Rogers fat. I think he's 823 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,799 Speaker 1: gonna be a solid NFL player. I think he's it's 824 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 1: it's it's working out in his favor now because there 825 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 1: was supposed to be so many options that were kind 826 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: of there for this this this Steeler's passing attack. You know, 827 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,840 Speaker 1: when the before the season started, you thought there was 828 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 1: gonna be so many playmakers in this offense that they 829 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:50,879 Speaker 1: they wouldn't even know what to do with them. Now 830 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: it's kind of down to Antonio Brown and Eli Rodgers 831 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: um and then Leveon Bell, who is by the way, 832 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 1: he's uh, I want to say, he's thirteenth in the 833 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 1: end of wide receivers in targets per game. So it's 834 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,720 Speaker 1: kind of ridiculous what Leveon Bell's doing in the resign. 835 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: It is, but it's because basically cause Marcus Wheaton never 836 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,240 Speaker 1: lived up to what they wanted him to be. Sammy 837 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: Coates has been hurting, Kobe Hamilton's not going to do much. 838 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 1: Ladarius Green is just now getting back on the field. 839 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: The reason that I think you can count on Eli 840 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: Rodgers another week, which I loved Eli Rodgers last week 841 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: against Dallas this week. Brian body Calhoun is now the 842 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: slot cornerback for the Cleveland Browns, and he is someone 843 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: that allowed two touchdowns last week in coverage against the Ravens. 844 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:42,760 Speaker 1: He's allowing seventy six percent catch rate this season fifteen 845 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 1: point eight yards per reception, so like he can be 846 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: picked on and considering all of the missing options. Yeah, 847 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: I like Eli Rodgers. I think you could start him 848 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: as a wide receiver. Three this week, I wanted to 849 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: talk about Robert Woods. He's coming off to buy and 850 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: before that. This is weird to say he tore up 851 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 1: the Legion of Boom for ten receptions one hundred and 852 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,879 Speaker 1: sixty two yards. What's he doing against Cincinnati this week, 853 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean Robert Woods, like, yeah, he 854 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 1: had a good game, but I'm not I can't put 855 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: much stock into it because Robert Woods, he's been someone 856 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: that's been seeing five or more targets and like seemingly 857 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: every game this year, and he hadn't done much with him. 858 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,400 Speaker 1: He had seen ten or more targets in two games. 859 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 1: He's only top fifty fifty one yards twice. He's scored 860 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: just one touchdown. I mean, if you're looking for a 861 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,280 Speaker 1: desperation like a bye week filler. You could do worse, 862 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 1: for sure, because he is the number one option on 863 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: that team. It's just you have to temper expectations. Don't 864 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: expect ten receptions again or anything like that. Yeah, I'm 865 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 1: looking at at his game log though, since Week three 866 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 1: six receptions, seven receptions, two five, four ten, So if 867 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: you're playing in a PPR league, at least he's consistently 868 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:57,399 Speaker 1: getting the ball. But yeah, I'm right with you. It 869 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,439 Speaker 1: was a good matchup. And I know that sounds weird 870 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: because it's Seattle, but Robert Woods runs over the middle 871 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,719 Speaker 1: of the field. Seattle leaves the middle of the field open, 872 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: and they cover the sidelines, they covered deep, and it 873 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: was just a good matchup for Robert Woods. So yeah, 874 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: I think he goes right back into that range. Four receptions, 875 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: forty five yards and probably no touchdown. He's doesn't grab touchdowns. 876 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to change, so I'm avoiding him. 877 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people are excited about him though, 878 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: so that's why I wanted to mention him number thirty 879 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: six in ECR. I'm not flexing him this week. Yeah, 880 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,240 Speaker 1: I mean, Cincinnati does have some struggles in their slot. 881 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,279 Speaker 1: That's where they I mean, I guess Dray Kirkpatrick and 882 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: Adam Jones on the outside that's their better cornerbacks. I 883 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: guess even at this point. But yeah, I'm with you. 884 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not excited if I'm starting Robert Woods and 885 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,359 Speaker 1: Mike Finally, I want to talk about Michael Floyd, Who's 886 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 1: another player that everyone's really excited about. They were remembering 887 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 1: that second half from last season when he just went 888 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: off and he had one hundred and one yards against 889 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: San Francisco's defense. He's not going to do that against Minnesota, 890 00:41:56,160 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 1: right I wouldn't think so. Michael Floyd. He's he's not 891 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:02,959 Speaker 1: playing all the snaps right now. He's played over fifty 892 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,320 Speaker 1: percent of the snaps just twice in his last six games, 893 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: so he's not even a full time player. And he 894 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 1: plays in the perimeter, which is a problem because Minnesota 895 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 1: Terrence Newman and Xavier Rhodes are the other perimeter cornerbacks there, 896 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 1: and those two are just really, really good. This defense 897 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 1: is going to play. I don't know if Rhodes is 898 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,879 Speaker 1: going to play. That's actually that's one of the news 899 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: pieces I haven't seen yet. If he and Eric Kendricks 900 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: is a question mark. This defense might not look the 901 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: same this week. Yeah, no, that's exactly that. That's there's 902 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,800 Speaker 1: a lot of question marks surrounding this game. I'm wondering 903 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: about Larry Fitzgerald's health, if he's gonna be okay, how 904 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,799 Speaker 1: he's gonna play. Um, David Johnson has been seeing so 905 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: many touches that his body's starting to wear down. I 906 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,479 Speaker 1: think three of the last four games he's averaged under 907 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 1: three point eight yards per carry. So yeah, there's a 908 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 1: lot of question marks surrounding this game with injuries which 909 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: would definitely, you know, impact all your decisions that you'd make. 910 00:42:56,080 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: But Michael Floyd, he's just difficult to trust. Uson Palmer 911 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:04,439 Speaker 1: not only lost his left tackle before their bye week. 912 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:08,800 Speaker 1: Jared Veld here, he's a big guy and he Carson 913 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 1: Palmer has been sacked I want to say, fifteen times 914 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 1: in the last three games now, and he just lost 915 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: his one of his Pro Bowl guards, Evan Mathis. So 916 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 1: the offensive line is kind of in shambles there. I 917 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: love Michael Floyd's talent, I just don't like the situation 918 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 1: in Arizona. Now, let's move over and talk about tight ends. 919 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 1: I've got to talk about Julius Thomas because it's just 920 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: driving me nuts. Every single week I see him in 921 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 1: the top ten for ECR. And if you look at 922 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: his game so far this season since Week three, two 923 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 1: receptions for thirteen, two for twenty eight, three for twenty 924 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,919 Speaker 1: three for twenty eight, two for twenty one six last week, 925 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: but for twenty four yards, I'm just not buying him 926 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 1: as a tight end one, even against Detroit. No, I 927 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: mean Detroit. That's where you hang your hat as they 928 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 1: allow touchdowns, and that's why he's probably in there as 929 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 1: a tight end one, just because they literally just allow touchdowns. 930 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,840 Speaker 1: That's all they do, and that's almost all you need 931 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: in order to live up to a height on one 932 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:04,360 Speaker 1: status and today's NFL Julius Thomas though, Yeah, I'm right 933 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 1: there with you. One of the stats I have here 934 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,399 Speaker 1: on him is that he has not top twenty eight 935 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: yards since back in Week two, and honestly, there was 936 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,320 Speaker 1: actually only four games in twenty fifteen where he topped 937 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 1: twenty eight yards. He's been arguably the biggest bust that 938 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 1: they could have signed as a free agent. They would 939 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: have been better off just sticking with Marcedes Lewis. I 940 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 1: also want to talk about Eric Ebron, who is I 941 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: like this guy a lot. I think he's one of 942 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 1: the top six tight ends in football, and nobody really 943 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 1: realizes it. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm stretching it here, 944 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 1: but if you look at his game log, five receptions 945 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 1: for forty six, that's his worst game. That was Week one. 946 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 1: That's his worst game. Now he's been hurt, but the 947 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 1: past two weeks since he came back from injury, seven 948 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 1: verse seventy nine, seven for ninety two and he's not 949 00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 1: scoring touchdowns yet. But he's a good red zone target 950 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: and I really think he's the best receiver on this 951 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:57,879 Speaker 1: Lions team. They're gonna be throwing the ball a lot 952 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: against Jacksonville this week and we have eight Abron at 953 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 1: number eight ECR. I've got him all the way up 954 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 1: at number four this week. This is my biggest reach. 955 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:10,799 Speaker 1: I'm a big believer though, so I understand it. He's 956 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 1: averaging over seven targets per game. I get it, and 957 00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: I love it when tight ends are saying that much volume, 958 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 1: you know the touchdowns are going to come. He's a 959 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:19,799 Speaker 1: big guy. They don't have very many big bodies in 960 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,399 Speaker 1: that team that are demanding targets in the red zone. 961 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 1: Here's the concern for me with him this week, because 962 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,919 Speaker 1: I'm usually on him as a tight end one as well. 963 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:34,919 Speaker 1: Jacksonville has allowed just one. They've allowed just one tight 964 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 1: end two top eleven point five PPR points and that 965 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 1: was Delaney Walker. And they've had some decent competition. So 966 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,360 Speaker 1: all these names I'll rattle off for you have scored 967 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 1: fewer than eleven point five PPR points. Antonio Gates, Dennis Pitta, 968 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 1: Duane Allen, Zach Miller, Travis Kelsey, CJ. Fedorowitz. All those 969 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,920 Speaker 1: guys scored fewer than eleven point five PPR points against Jacksonville. 970 00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 1: So while I do have my concerns, I do understand 971 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 1: exactly where you're coming from, because, as I mentioned, the 972 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,280 Speaker 1: targets are there, and if you're getting targets tight end position, 973 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,720 Speaker 1: touchdowns will come. He's had, you know, as you mentioned, 974 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 1: fourteen catches for one hundred and seventy one yards over 975 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 1: the last two games. So there's a little bit of risk, 976 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 1: a little bit of a reward. But I like it. 977 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 1: I like your call. It's a bold one, but I 978 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 1: like it. You made me a little bit nervous there 979 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,799 Speaker 1: with those stats against Jacksonville. That's kind of scary, but 980 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: I'm sticking to it. I like Ebron, and especially if 981 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 1: you're in a dynasty league, I think this is a 982 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 1: guy that right now, even though he's been playing well lately, 983 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: I think you could buy low on him right now 984 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,439 Speaker 1: because his stock isn't really high. I think it's only 985 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 1: going to get higher from here, and I think going 986 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 1: into next year, he's going to be a consensus every 987 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: single year top five tight end and he may eventually 988 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 1: move into that top two range in the position he's 989 00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 1: really really good. Yeah, that's a good call on Matthew. 990 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:54,399 Speaker 1: Stafford's young, and so if Stafford like's thrown to him, 991 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,399 Speaker 1: there's no reason to go away from Ibron. Another name 992 00:46:57,719 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 1: I'll throw out there before we get out of here 993 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 1: is Jerrick McKinnon. If you're in a dynasty league, go 994 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,879 Speaker 1: after Jerk McKinnon. I know a lot of people are like, well, 995 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: he's been pretty bad with the opportunity he's been given 996 00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 1: this year, but understand that his running style is similar 997 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:12,839 Speaker 1: to that of maybe like a Leveon Bell, where they're 998 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 1: very patient runners. They wait for a hole to open 999 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:16,920 Speaker 1: up and then they hit it. The problem is is 1000 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: that Minnesota has lost both their tackles. They've been dealing 1001 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: with some injuries on the interior, and this is not 1002 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:24,840 Speaker 1: an offensive line that a patient runner can run behind. 1003 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: You needed just a straight downhill runner. But even then, 1004 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 1: you know, even nobody on Minnesota has averaged more than 1005 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,240 Speaker 1: three yards per carry. So it's not just Jeric McKinnon. 1006 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,040 Speaker 1: It's just a bad offensive line. So Jerk McKinnon's a 1007 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 1: name that I would definitely look to buy low on. 1008 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 1: That's a good call. I feel like everyone listening knows 1009 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,879 Speaker 1: that I've just eaten crow on Jeric McKinnon all year 1010 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: because I keep saying, even with the offensive line, he's 1011 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 1: just so good, like you got to maybe consider playing 1012 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 1: him in GPP, but you know it hasn't worked out yet. 1013 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this question, Mike, say Minnesota rebuilds 1014 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 1: their offensive line, they get healthy. Let's just say they 1015 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,359 Speaker 1: have a middle of the road offensive line. Nick Year, 1016 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 1: how high is he going to be taken in drafts? Um? 1017 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,320 Speaker 1: If Teddy Bridgewater is back, it helps because he presents 1018 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 1: a dual threat. Sam Bradford's a pocket passer nobody has 1019 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,839 Speaker 1: to worry about that, so, um, I think that Jerk 1020 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 1: McKinnon would be drafted as well after this year. People 1021 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 1: would be scared to draft him, but me personally, I 1022 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 1: think that he would be I'd have him definitely an 1023 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,879 Speaker 1: RB two conversation. I think I think before this year 1024 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: you would have been like, oh, if Adrian Peterson's gone, 1025 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 1: they got a solid offensive line. He's in the conversation 1026 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 1: for an RB one, but it's gonna take a little 1027 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: bit of time to rebuild that offensive line. So for me, 1028 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 1: he probably tops out into RB two. But in Dynasty, 1029 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 1: we're looking further down the road. So that's why I 1030 00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,359 Speaker 1: like I like Stealen McKinnon from the owner right now, 1031 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:43,880 Speaker 1: All right, Mike, let's close this out by talking about 1032 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 1: some streaming defenses that people can pick up. Who do 1033 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,799 Speaker 1: you like this week? Love the Giants? Um I wrote 1034 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: an article on that is that they were I think 1035 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 1: it was just like eleven percent owned and at home 1036 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,520 Speaker 1: they're averaging I think it's over three sacks per game now, 1037 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:03,840 Speaker 1: and you know, playing against a Bears, our Bears offense 1038 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,759 Speaker 1: that just lost alshon Jeffrey Jay Cutler just looked like hell, 1039 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 1: Jay Cutler's actually been sacked on once every nine point 1040 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 1: four dropbacks. No other quarterback in the NFL has been 1041 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 1: sacked more than every twelve point four, so that's like 1042 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:22,360 Speaker 1: a big gap. So Jay Cutler is going to be 1043 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:24,880 Speaker 1: sacked in this game. He doesn't have a ghost too 1044 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,600 Speaker 1: option in the passing game right now. It's gonna be 1045 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: a mess for them and he's gonna have to throw 1046 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:31,319 Speaker 1: a lot because the Giants are gonna put up points 1047 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:33,759 Speaker 1: in that defense. You could look at them, as I 1048 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 1: mentioned the Rams. You probably can't stream because they're probably owned, 1049 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:41,319 Speaker 1: but the Miami Dolphins against rookie Jared Goff, they're one 1050 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,440 Speaker 1: I would look to play, and I think the the 1051 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,680 Speaker 1: one last one I was looking at was Oakland. Oakland 1052 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 1: has been a lot better defense than people realize since 1053 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 1: the since the first couple of weeks, like they had 1054 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,720 Speaker 1: a brutal start to their schedule. They played it was Breeze, 1055 00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, I think Mariota was in there, Philip Rivers. 1056 00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 1: Ever since that time, they've been a lot better on defense. 1057 00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 1: And they're playing against a Houston team with Brock Osweiler 1058 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 1: who throws for like three yards per attempt. So Oakland's 1059 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:16,400 Speaker 1: got some really nice young pieces in their secondary. I 1060 00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 1: think this time next year we'll be talking about the 1061 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,399 Speaker 1: Raiders as a Super Bowl contender. I don't know, maybe 1062 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 1: it'll happen this year, but I really like what they 1063 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:24,839 Speaker 1: have going on there, and I don't think they've even 1064 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 1: played up to their capability. Everyone was talking about them 1065 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 1: is maybe emerging as a top five defense this year. 1066 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 1: It definitely hasn't happened. But when Khalil Mack gets going, 1067 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:36,040 Speaker 1: this defense could be real difficult for some teams to 1068 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:37,880 Speaker 1: deal with. YEP. I was one of those people that 1069 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 1: believe that Oakland would be a lot better the defense 1070 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,319 Speaker 1: than they were to start the year. But as things 1071 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:45,320 Speaker 1: start to turn around, they're they're not playing as great 1072 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,360 Speaker 1: of competition, so they're starting to get a little bit 1073 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,399 Speaker 1: of their mojo back. Khalil Mack is starting to play 1074 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 1: a lot better. So yeah, I definitely look for Oakland 1075 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 1: if you're looking for a streamer outside of those top 1076 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 1: few options, Oakland is definitely definitely a high floor option 1077 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,080 Speaker 1: at that I'm going to say kind of a contrarian 1078 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 1: play here. If you're in a deeper league and a 1079 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 1: lot of these defenses are taken and you need to 1080 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 1: find someone, it's really ugly. I know you guys are 1081 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:11,439 Speaker 1: gonna hate me because they give up thirty six points 1082 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 1: last week to Tampa Bay. But the Chicago Bears, if 1083 00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:17,560 Speaker 1: you look at their game log, ten points, five, ten, ten, nine, 1084 00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 1: and then the stinker last week after the bye, I 1085 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:22,480 Speaker 1: think they came back from the bye just a little 1086 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:24,279 Speaker 1: too relaxed, and they're going to come back trying to 1087 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 1: prove something this week against Eli Manning, who throws for 1088 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,880 Speaker 1: a lot of interceptions. I think that Chicago could be 1089 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 1: a nice reliable defense this week. Yeah, it's like a 1090 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 1: contrarian play. I mean, that's definitely something that would be 1091 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,960 Speaker 1: against the norm. I just worry about the Bears in 1092 00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 1: the road. They've been a really bad road team this year. 1093 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 1: They've been really good at home. There are only allowing 1094 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:44,399 Speaker 1: seventeen points per game at home, but on the road 1095 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,800 Speaker 1: they've allowed at least twenty three points to every team 1096 00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 1: and an average of twenty nine. All right, Mike, Well 1097 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 1: that's all the questions we have for you today. Thanks 1098 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 1: for coming on and looking forward to seeing how our 1099 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,480 Speaker 1: picks work out this week.
