I was on vacation and some other locale. 18 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: I'm a world traveler. We gotta we gotta get Brian credit. 19 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: He did twelve shows in a row so far this season. Yeah, 20 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: that's um He's like, it's pretty good and you only 21 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: put some like three hundred short of me. But yeah, 22 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: that's pretty good. What are you going to take one off? 23 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: I never never, just you're the cal Ripken of Uh, yeah, 24 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: there's something to that. I am. I am the bell 25 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: cow of this show. Yeah. Um, hopefully not like Jay 26 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: Gies the bell cow for Miami, because that's uh, that 27 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't be good. We're gonna try to do a little 28 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: better than that. We're optimistic, um coming up on the show, 29 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: all the good stuff that you know and love. We're 30 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: gonna break down every game fantasy style. We'll bring you 31 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: five hot questions, take a chance on me, premature speculation, 32 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: and lightning round. And because we have six teams on 33 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: by for the only time this year, that means we're 34 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: gonna have some We're gonna have some extra time are calls. 35 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: I believe. I think it's going to happen. Then again, 36 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: we do tent When we know we've got extra time, 37 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: we tend to go long and pontificate and all that 38 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: other stuff that ends up screwing up our clock. Anyway, 39 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: we'll find out lots of pregnant pauses. Yeah, that could be. 40 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: Let's dive right into the matchups, beginning with Falcons at Jets. 41 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: Scott Falcons offensive problems are well chronicled. Now they get 42 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 1: the Jets. Does this say get right moment for the Falcons? 43 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 1: I definitely think so. Now the Jets are bottom ten 44 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: versus every position quarterbacks and runing backs, wide receivers ten 45 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: ends their their bottom ten against all of those, So 46 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: I think it's definitely a get right game from Matt Ryan. 47 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: The Jets allowing the most touchdown passes this season and 48 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: multiple touchdowns and four straight games. I have an A 49 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: grade on Ryan. I have an A grade on Julio 50 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 1: Jones as well. Hit The Jets have allowed five touchdowns 51 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: this year to number one wide receivers scored last week. 52 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: I think it gets in again like nice two in 53 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 1: a row after getting shut out for the first six 54 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: weeks of the season, no kidding. Finally saw that end 55 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: uh snook back last week saw ten targets and he's 56 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: going to be in the slot against bust buster screen. 57 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: Great matchup. I give him a B grade. Is that 58 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: baby Mohammed Sanu or Mohammed Sanu sr? Are we sure? 59 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: I don't think. I think it's going to be the senior. 60 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna be the baby. The baby 61 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: could have a decent game against Busters. That is actually possible. 62 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: It's the screen door effect. Is we like any any 63 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: Mohammed Sanu? We are We are already vamping more than often. 64 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: That's right, unusual Austin Hooper. Uh. Over the last three games, 65 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: the Jets have allowed four touchdowns and they're allowing six 66 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: catches per game. In that span, Hooper has been hot 67 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: and cold. Three games over forty five yards and three 68 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: games under ten yards. I'm very Amari Cooper like that. 69 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: It's the it's the volume problem for him. Yeah, he's 70 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: hot and cold, but you know this is a great matchup, 71 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: So I'm giving him a C grade. Maybe he's more 72 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: hot than cold this week. Uh, DeVonta Freeman giving him 73 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: an A grade. He's got at least seventy hold of yards. 74 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: In five straight weeks. Jets are allowing a hundred fifty 75 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: total yards per game. A grade there B grade for Coleman. 76 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: Bad game last week, averaging under four yards per carry. 77 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: But the Jets are allowing five and a half receptions 78 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: and over fifty yards per game to to running backs 79 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: receiving I think I think Coleman can shine there. I 80 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: hope you're right. I mean, you know that it seemed 81 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: like a great matchup for him last week and needed nothing. 82 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: Another strong matchup pays off this time. Yeah. On the 83 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: Jet side, Josh McCown, the Falcons are allowing two thirty 84 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: yards and one and a half touchdowns per game to quarterbacks, 85 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: but Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady really inflated those numbers. Otherwise, 86 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: it's actually much worse. The Falcons are doing really well 87 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: in that area. McCown does have multiple touchdown passes in 88 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: three straight weeks, but I'm giving him a C grade here. 89 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: I don't like the matchup. I'm giving both of his 90 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: receiver se grades as well. It's it's uh, it's yeah. 91 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: I guess they could both get secrets. They both scored 92 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: last week five five targets per game for Curse, six 93 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: targets per game for Anderson. There's a little volume. There 94 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: slight edge to Anderson. He's led the team and targets 95 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: three straight weeks. Given Safarian Jenkins a B grade the Jets. 96 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: The Falcons are allowing over eight targets and over fifty 97 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: six yards per game to tight ends and Safarian Jenkins 98 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,119 Speaker 1: has been productive. I think he can be productive again 99 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: here against a pretty decent matchup for tight ends. And 100 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,239 Speaker 1: he did score against Atlanta week one of last season 101 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: while he was a member of the Buccaneers. Nice little 102 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: added bonus there for Austin Safarian Jenkins. And onto the 103 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: running game. Falcons are bottom ten versus the run, allowing 104 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: over a hundred fifty total yards per game to running backs. 105 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: But when fourteen Powell both played together this season, they're 106 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: only averaging twenty total touches between them, and they're splitting them. 107 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 1: Last week, I think they had eleven and thirteen. They're 108 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: not getting a lot of volume. I know they both 109 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: had eight yards last week. Uh Fourtes had eight yards 110 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: two weeks in a row. And Atlantic is a little 111 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: a bit susceptible to pass catching backs. They both catch passes. 112 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 1: Not a lot of volume though. I'm giving them both 113 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: C grades. But I'm a little worried about the us. 114 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I don't know that I can start 115 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: you the one. Yeah, it's it's it's a shaky seat 116 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: for me. Between four tem Pow Bears take ONWN the Saints, 117 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: Matt and the Bears offense it's been all running all 118 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: day and no passing whatsoever. Do you think they loosen 119 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 1: up a little bit on Mitch Drabinsky. Well, you're gonna 120 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: really like the way that I structured this matchup then, 121 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: because I gave an aid to Jordan Howard's averaging touches 122 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: per game over the last five weeks, and the Saints 123 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: are allowing four point seven yards per carry to opposing 124 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: backs this season. That seems like at least a hundred 125 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 1: yards to me in this game for Jordan Howard and 126 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: probably their best chance at a touchdown the entire passing game, 127 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 1: including Tarik cohen Is on the bench, has to be 128 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: Robinsky literally through only seven passes last week and sixteen 129 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: the week before. He's only completed twelve passes in the 130 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: last two weeks, and they've won both games and they 131 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: want so there's not a mandate to change it, unfortunately. Yeah, 132 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: And the Saints defense actually not as bad as we 133 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: might think. Um, they've given up three touchdown passes to 134 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: each Tom Brady, Sam Bradford and Matthew Stafford this year, 135 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: but in the other three games against Jay Cutler, Cam 136 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: Newton and Brett Hunley, they did not give up a 137 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: passing score at all, so I think Mitch Truebiski is 138 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: more of column B than column A there, so he's 139 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: definitely more huntly than Brady. On the saint side, I 140 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,119 Speaker 1: got mark Ingram getting an a averaging twenty eight touches 141 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: per game since Adrian left Town has had back to 142 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: back a hundred yard games and three total touchdowns, and 143 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: the Bears have allowed the ninth most rushing touchdowns in 144 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: the league this season. Yeah, and by the way, the 145 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: it's uh I calculated twenty nine touches per game, but 146 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: either way, it's too much for mark Ingram and I 147 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: think Camara is gonna start siphoning some of those offer 148 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: nine is is not what it mark Ingram is all about. Yeah, 149 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: and I have Kamara as a C start too. He's 150 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: had thirteen and fourteen touches since the a P deal, 151 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: so he's a decent flex play. Opposing backs are also 152 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: averaging seven catches per game against the Bears over the 153 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: past three weeks, so I think he's in playing PPR 154 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: for sure. Drew Brees I gotta be on. He's had 155 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: five eight games of either three hundred yards passing or 156 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: multiple touchdowns. Chicago has only allowed eight touchdown passes this season. 157 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: The defense has been pretty solid, but four of them 158 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: were to Aaron Rodgers, so in the other five games 159 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: they've given up one or zero. Michael Thomas, I'm still 160 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: giving a B grade two though He's had double digit 161 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: targets and three of his last five and has had 162 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,239 Speaker 1: at least eighty yards and four of his last five. 163 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: But he hasn't topped the hundred yards this season and 164 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: the touchdowns only two touchdowns. Yeah, he'll face off mostly 165 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: against Prince Amukamar. Though held Kevin Helvin Benjamin to three 166 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: catches for sixty five yards last week. He's been pretty good. Uh. 167 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: Ted Gin given a C grade to Ted Gin. Gain's 168 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: only seen the field for fifty two of the snaps 169 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: in the Saints last two weeks, but he had sixty 170 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 1: six yards in a touchdown two weeks ago and seven 171 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: catches for a hundred and forty one yards last week. 172 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: So he's making a lot of hay with the limited 173 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: amount of snaps that he's on the field, and he's 174 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: their deep threat. And I am a little bit worried 175 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: that the return of Willie Snead, now healthy, will will 176 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: eat into at least a few of his reps as well. Well. 177 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: Let's mention Willie Sneed. Sneed was a finally a full 178 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: participant in practice on Friday. He's been dealing with a 179 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: hamstring injury basically since his suspension ended. The slot wide 180 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: receiver is the best matchup and Snead kind of goes 181 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: into that a little bit there, and Brandon Coleman kind 182 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: of does as well. And Coleman actually had a nice 183 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: little game last week as well. So I think it's 184 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,599 Speaker 1: probably split time between Sneed and Coleman, so I have 185 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: both of them on the bench, and Kobe Fleaner we're 186 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: off the Fleaner mobile where we're far off the Fleaner 187 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: mobile was only playing the snaps since the Saints became 188 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: a running team, and and he's he's just not on 189 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: the on the field at also not Thatch agreed. Uh. 190 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: The early morning game tomorrow is Vikings versus Browns in London, 191 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: and I I always like getting the London games. I 192 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: didn't get this solve. That's because I like to do 193 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: the British that entire time, and like I need some 194 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: I need some British accent out of you. Let's go. Yeah, 195 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna happen. Um, you will get 196 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 1: some new news out of me. This uh, this news 197 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: just coming down the down, down the wire. As they say, 198 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: the Browns players had to evacuate it as if is it? 199 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: What else could go round for the Browns? Right? The 200 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: Browns players had to evacuate their team hotel at five 201 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: in the morning. Here they're trying to castle. By the way, 202 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: gas leak in the hotel. Um, here they're trying trying 203 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 1: to just adjust to the time zone change, right, and 204 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: you're trying to make up the six hour time zone 205 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: change and everything else, and gas leak in the hotel 206 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: has everybody standing outside for an hour at in the morning. Crikey, blindy, 207 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: that's just beastly, is it? There? Uh so there's your 208 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: there's your your latest Browns update. Let's talk about that. 209 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: Got common UK expressions pulled up on thank you? You 210 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: can do some insert those whenever you want. All right, 211 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: go for it. I'm gonna start with the running game. 212 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: It's tim be tempting to chase Latavius Murray's a big 213 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: game from last week, but I wouldn't do it. The 214 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: one thing the Browns do really well stuff the run 215 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: they are giving up a league best two point nine 216 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 1: yards per carry. I'll also remind people that prior to 217 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: last week, Lottavias Murray was averaging two point three yards 218 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: per carry um. They've Browns have only a looted two 219 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: rushing scores, and none of those were in the last month. 220 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: No back his top sixty six yards against Cleveland last week. 221 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry two very good runners and 222 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: and frankly, two runners that are probably better than Latavius 223 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: Murray and Jerick McKinnon combined for just seventy two yards scoreless. 224 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: Seventy two scoreless yards against the Browns, So see grades 225 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 1: on Lottavias Murray and Jerick McKinnon. Let's go to the 226 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: passing offense, where we believe Stefan Diggs will return. It 227 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: increasingly looks like he's gonna play. You seem very chuffed 228 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: about that. I don't want him to play in this game. 229 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: I am chuffed something. No, I'm not pleased about it 230 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: as a Viking fan. I was a fantasy fan, great 231 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: as a Viking fan more so. No, because they don't 232 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: need him to win this game against the Browns, and 233 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: they've got a buy wee coming if if the groin 234 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 1: is anything less than one, I wish they wouldn't play him, 235 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: But it looks like he's gonna go in this one 236 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: full practices this week. He has done the full Monty 237 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: of practices this week. Yeah. Uh. The Browns may attack 238 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: him with solid corner Jason mccordy, who's sometimes shadows. That 239 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 1: would be a negative for him. Um, if they don't shadow, 240 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: then he'll get some positive matchups against Jamar Taylor. But 241 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: we don't know for sure which way that's gonna go. 242 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: I'm going see great on Stefan Diggs in part because 243 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: groin injury injuries get re injured, get aggravated a lot, 244 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 1: and if it goes blow out, they may decide to 245 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: sit Diggs as well, just to rest the groin. So 246 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: I would be done backed if that happened. I bet 247 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: you would. Adam feeling over the By the way, see 248 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,839 Speaker 1: great on Steph Diggs if I didn't say so. Adam 249 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: Clan also a C grade over the last two weeks 250 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: without Diggs targeted twelve and thirteen times. I like that. 251 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 1: But Diggs comes back now, so now he's I think 252 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: he's gonna get targeted less and most importantly, he draws 253 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: one of the better slot cornerbacks in the NFL, former 254 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: golfer Brian Body Calhoun, who ranks seventh overall among all 255 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: cornerbacks by Pro Football Focus. Only A C grade for Theeling, 256 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: only off your trolley. I am off my trolley the 257 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: h He has given up three touchdowns of slot receivers, 258 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: but Theeland hasn't scored a touchdown this year, so I 259 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: don't even know if that's gonna be a factor. C 260 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: grade on Theeling. A grade for Kyle Rudolph. Targets have 261 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: been way up over the last three weeks without digs. 262 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: Maybe that comes back to earth a little bit here, 263 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: but the Browns have struggled mightily against tight ends for 264 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: a lot of the season. Big games have gone to 265 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:41,479 Speaker 1: Jesse James two touchdowns, Benjamin Watson yards, Tyler Croft too touchdowns, 266 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: Austin Severian Jenkins one should have been two touchdowns, Delaney 267 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,439 Speaker 1: Walker sixty three yards and seven receptions last week. So 268 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: cal Rudolph A grade. I've got keen Um on the bench. 269 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 1: He has thrown zero or one touchdowns in five of 270 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: six games, and the Browns have allowed the second most 271 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns and multiple touchdowns and five of seven games. 272 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 1: But they just shut down Marcus Mariota last week, so 273 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: who's to say that this is gonna be It seems 274 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: like a dog's bollocks matchup for case Keenum on the 275 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:14,239 Speaker 1: brown side. There's no startable plays here, including Duke Johnson, 276 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: who is usually a solid contributor through the air. But 277 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: listening with the Vikings have done to good pass catching 278 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: backs this year. Alvin Kamara twenty yards, Levy on Bell 279 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: these are these are the receiving yards. That's all we 280 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: care about. Duke h Levy on Bell four yards, theoretic 281 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: eight yards, Tarik Cohen negative six yards, Tie Montgomery three yards, 282 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: Bunk Allen twenty nine yards. That's it. Who you thought 283 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: bunk Ellen would be the best of those? Yeah, that's right. 284 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: You don't think Johnson's full of beans and ready to 285 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: go get him? I don't link so the beans for 286 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: breakfast in England. That's not cool. Isaiah Crowles on the bench. 287 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: He hasn't scored yet. He's averaging three point two yards 288 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: per carry, Vikings allowing just three point two yards per carry, 289 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: So that means if he's going to continue to get 290 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: three point two y it's per carry on his average 291 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: often carries. That's a forty one yard game and he's 292 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: on the bench. Yeah, that's rubbish. And we're gonna put 293 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: the whole passing game on the bench as well. You 294 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: don't even need me to really expand on this. This 295 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: is uh Kaiser comes back. But it doesn't matter in 296 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: fact that it's probably works against this team. So that's it. 297 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: Vikings Browns. Let's take a break when we come back, 298 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: take a chance on me. Nine players not normally in 299 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: your starting lineup, many of them available on the waiver wire. 300 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: Will tell you who they are when we return. Welcome 301 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: back to the show, Fantasy Weekly. I'm a fan. Paul Charchi, 302 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: Matt Harrison, Scott Fish with you. Yeah, I far better 303 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: than last weeks. I can tell you that which one 304 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: was last hit Monks the worst. I'd be glad I 305 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: missed it. Yeah, you are glad you've missed Hi, You've 306 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: you've suffered through it before you have you've paid your dues. 307 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: Nine players not normally in your starting line up. Let's 308 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: begin with quarterback positions. Scott Tyrod Taylor. He's far better 309 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: at home, throwing nearly seventy five yards per game. More, 310 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: five of his seven touchdowns have come in his in 311 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: his three home games. Yea and Oakland's allowing tune in 312 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: seventy five yards per game over their last five, including 313 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: three multi touchdown games. They The last time they went 314 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: east to West, they played Kirk Cousins, who threw for 315 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 1: three forty two and three. Not to mention Tyrod Taylor's 316 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: averaging nearly eight rush attempts at home. He can get 317 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: you some points on the ground there too, gets Jordan 318 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: Matthews back as well. Matt who you got? I have 319 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers And I admit that this one's a little 320 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: bit of low hanging from Yeah, he's my number five 321 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: quarterback this week. He's uh, he's sev owned in ESPN leagues, 322 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: so that means he's available in thirty and he faces 323 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: the Patriots defense that's allowed the most passing yards and 324 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: the most passing touchdowns. There's not really that much more 325 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: that needs to be said about Philip Brown. No, I 326 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: mind a little choky as well, but not as choky 327 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: as that Andy Dalton. It's where for an offense to 328 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: take a page from the Jaguars. But the Bengals should 329 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: follow the Jaguars game plan last week against the Colts 330 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: basically to the letter. Blake Bortles put a three hundred 331 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 1: thirty yards last week against the Colts, and this is 332 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: a very good opportunity for Dalton going up against the 333 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: thirty first rank Indianapolis past defense. Only DeShawn Kiser has 334 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: failed to throw for two hundred nine five yards against Indy. 335 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: Let's go to the running back position, Scott, Yeah, I 336 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: have to make a late switch here, but I'm going 337 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 1: with James White. He's averaging nearly seven targets per game, 338 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: over five targets per five receptions per game, and forty 339 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: yards per game. He's getting seventy per cent in the 340 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: New England running back targets. I like him a lot 341 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: this week. Okay, I made a late swap as well. 342 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: I went with Rex Burkhead. He'stalied only six carries last time, 343 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: but he's averaged over five yards per carry with those touches, 344 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: something he also didn't Week one, and last week was 345 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: his first game back after an injury, so they were 346 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: just working him into the offense little by little. He's 347 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 1: only on this field for thirteen snaps last week, but 348 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: he had a touch and seven of them. That's over 349 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: the touches per snap. I don't know why you would 350 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: play any other New England running chart. Who you side 351 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: Rex Burkhead. I like that you guys have conspired against 352 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 1: I've got Dian Lewis. What WHOA? I know that's hard 353 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: to believe. Uh, you guys have already hit all the 354 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: sale talking points against the Chargers. I will mention this 355 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: about Dan Lewis though, averaging five point three yards per carry, 356 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: the most on the team, almost two yards per carry 357 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: more than Mike gillies Lee, who nobody even mentioned. And 358 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,479 Speaker 1: he's a plausible start here as well. If we had 359 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: a fourth person, we'd be mentioning Mike Gillies l Uh. 360 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: Dan Lewis's rushing attempts have increased in five straight games. 361 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: Go to the wide receiver. We did hatch that plan 362 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: in the office last We thought it would be pretty fun, 363 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: pretty good later. I'm sticking with Josh Jackson. If you 364 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: picked him up from mature speculation last week for me, 365 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: I hope you still have him. He plus started and 366 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: played the snaps last week, most snaps of the season 367 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: for him. He gets a bottom six Dallas defense against 368 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: wide receivers. They've allowed the fourth fourth most touchdowns the 369 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: wide receivers. I like docs in this week, I went 370 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: with Tyrrell Williams of the Los Angeles Clippers nine different 371 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: wide receivers of top seventy five yards against New England 372 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: this season. The Pats have allowed the most receptions in 373 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: the second most yards to opposing wide receivers this season. 374 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: And he's completely due after becoming somewhat of an afterthought 375 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: since Mike Williams has decoyed his way into the lineup 376 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: for like one in two targets per week. It's time 377 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: to feed Tyrrell. Uh. But Benny Fowler's role will increase 378 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 1: again this week with Emmanuel Sanders out again. Last week 379 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: he set season and career highs with five catches. This week, 380 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: he draws one of the worst slot corners in the league, 381 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: Philip Gaines, who ranks dead last at his position by 382 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: Profoball Focus one hundred ninth. Benny Fowler is your final 383 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: take a chance on meat player. Lewis is the best player. 384 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: He is the best. UH. Let's move on to our matchups, 385 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,959 Speaker 1: including Panthers taking on the Bucks. We know the bit 386 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: on Cam Newton at this point that it's very clear 387 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: against bottom tier past defenses, he's dynamite. Against anybody else, 388 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: he's awful. This is a bottom to your past defense. Yeah. 389 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: I mentioned last week the same thing with Newton, that 390 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: he's become a matchup play and he does bring them up. 391 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: Though the Bucks are terrible. They allow over three yards 392 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: and two touchdowns per game to quarterbacks, and in weeks 393 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: four through six, when Newton had all those great matchups, 394 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: that's what he was getting. So I expect an a 395 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: A grade out of Newton this week. His top guy, 396 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 1: Benjamin A grade as well. They're the Bucks are second 397 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: worst against wide receivers. They have allowed ten different wide 398 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: receivers to hit seventy five yards or score touchdown. I 399 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: I like him to do either or both of those things, agreed, 400 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: Vin Foncious. He had successful days against Detroit, New England. 401 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: He disappeared for some others. He's averaging over eight targets 402 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: per game, which is great since Greg Alson went out, 403 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: But over the last couple of weeks he's only caught 404 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: of those. That's not a fluke. He caught less than 405 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: of his past his last last year. I don't know 406 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: that that's on him. Though as much as it is 407 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: on Newton. I don't fantasy numbers though, right. I don't 408 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: think he's a good player, but I think he has 409 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: a great matchup. I'm giving him a C grade, but 410 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: if he falls on his face, I wouldn't be surprised either, honestly, Uh, Dixon, 411 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: I'm benching He's question about Tampa Bay is pretty decent 412 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 1: against tight end. He's been the last couple of weeks. 413 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: Jonathan Stewart. I'm not just benching. I'm handcuffing him to 414 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 1: the bench and hiding his helmet. He is. He's averaged 415 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: just three yards percarried. Is looking for it for him? Yes? 416 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: And one point six yards percary over the last three weeks. 417 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: He's just terrible right now. Uh McCaffrey, I'm going to 418 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: give a B grade to it. Wouldn't surprised me if 419 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: he does better than that. Even the Buckner's are allowing 420 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: five or more catches to four running backs this year, 421 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: and all of those guys scored or had sixty yards. 422 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: McCaffrey's getting over eight targets and over six catches per 423 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: game and half ppr PPR. That's where you're gonna be 424 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 1: able to start him on the buck side, Winston. He's 425 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: facing a top ten Panthers defense. That's I mean, just 426 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 1: over two hundred yards per game. It is a tough matchup. 427 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: But in his last four full healthy games, yeah, three 428 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 1: multi touchdown games for three hundred yard games. I give 429 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 1: him a B here. I think he might be able 430 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: to rise above the matchup. I'm giving Evans a B 431 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 1: as well. He's he has yet to crack a hundred yards. 432 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: I get that the Panthers have not allowed a hundred 433 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: yard receiver yet. He probably gets a lot of James Bradbury, 434 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: which is a tough matchup. It is tough, but he 435 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 1: does get eight targets a game. Winston goes to him 436 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: in contested catches anyway he gets that is true. Winston 437 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: doesn't care. Yeah, ten plus three times. I'm still giving 438 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,200 Speaker 1: him a B grade here. I'm giving him. I'm given 439 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: d Jacks a shake year B grade. He still gets 440 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: seven plus targets per game. He's got that tough matchup 441 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: as well against Carolina, but he does have seventy yards 442 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: or a score in three straight weeks. And when he 443 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: does catch the ball, he's taking him for sixteen yards 444 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 1: of clips. So it doesn't need doesn't need a lot 445 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: of volume, and he gets Darryl Worley instead of James 446 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: Bradberry and all probability, and so that certainly helps him great. 447 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay is throwing for the most yards and touchdowns 448 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: to tight ends. Brad At a four game touchdown streak 449 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 1: that came to an end last week when O. J. 450 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: Howard blew up. But Howard hasn't had more than two 451 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: catches in any other game this year. I'm benching Howard. 452 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 1: I'm giving Braid a C grade because Carolina is top 453 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: five against tight ends, only Grunk with over thirty yards 454 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: against them. It's even a shaky C grade. I'm a 455 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: little worried there. Doug Martin Carolina top five against running backs. 456 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: No running back over seventy yards against Carolina against Carolina 457 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: this year. But Martin his carries keep increasing fifteen plus 458 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: a game on average. He might get there on volume. 459 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: I'm giving him a C grade. All right? Uh, Matt 460 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: Raiders take on the Bills. No Marshawn Lynch in this one. 461 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 1: A lot of people on Twitter, with all with this 462 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: being the six team by week, are looking at starting 463 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,719 Speaker 1: Jalen Richard or maybe even Washington. What do you think 464 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,439 Speaker 1: about the Oakland Runners in this game? I got them 465 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: both on the bench. Only one back has topped sixty 466 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: yards against the Bills so far this season, and they've 467 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 1: allowed only three touchdowns in six games to the position. 468 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: Although the bright spot is they just traded defensive tackle 469 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 1: Marcel Darius to the Jaguars yesterday. I think Washington gets 470 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 1: the primary carries. It's probably a sixty split. Yeah, Richard 471 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: is more of the ppr angle, but the Bills have 472 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: only allowed one back to top thirty five yards receiving 473 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: this season, and no running backs have scored through the air. 474 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 1: That's why I got them both on the bench. Passing game, 475 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 1: on the other hand, I got a lot of bees 476 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: coming up. Derek Carr with a B. Jameis Winston was 477 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: the first quarterback to throw for multiple touchdowns against the 478 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: Bills of the season, and he went off last week 479 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: and the prior five games they had only allowed to 480 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: total touchdown pass s is. But Buffalo is going to 481 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: be without starting corner e J. Gaines and starting safety 482 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: Jordan's Poyer and cars obviously coming off the huge game 483 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: last week and appears to be fully healthy. Mark Cooper 484 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 1: also had a huge game last week. He's getting a B. 485 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: Had to ten and two touchdowns last week against Kansas City, 486 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: but only had eighty four total yards and no scores 487 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 1: in the prior five games. That's why I'm giving him 488 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: the B instead of the A. He's also never scored 489 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: a touchdown and back to back games in his entire career. 490 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: So yeah, so so he's due for a goose egg 491 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: of a touchdown this week unless he's gonna bring the 492 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: trend um. The Bills have given up big games in 493 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 1: the last two weeks to a J. Green and Mike 494 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: Evans both scored in both top to eight yards. They 495 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: also gave up five catches to seventy three yards to 496 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: the Seawan Jackson last week, which means Michael Crabtree also 497 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 1: gets a B. He scored in each of his last 498 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 1: three since returning from an injury, and Jared Cook I 499 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: got a C grade for him. He's coming off a 500 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: season high hundred and seven yards last week against Kansas City, 501 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: and this Bill's defense just got torched by the Tampa 502 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: tight ends last week. Uh they come bind for twelve catches, 503 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty eight yards and two touchdowns last week. 504 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: I think Cook is uh gotta. He's probably a B 505 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: as well. I think I think I'm not. I'm not 506 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: as optimistic, but we'll see alright. And then over on 507 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: the bill side, it's the Lashawn McCoy show. He's got 508 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: an A. The Raiders have allowed at least eighty five 509 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 1: total yards to a lead running back in each of 510 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: the last six weeks, and are allowing one five rushing 511 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: yards per game, which is eighth most in the NFL. 512 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: McCoy has had over twenty touches in four straight games, 513 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: had twenty eight last week, five of those being receptions 514 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 1: to go along with his two rushing touchdowns. I'll interject 515 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: that this show urged you to pick up and trade 516 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 1: four Leshan McCoy two weeks ago when he was on 517 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: his by and you could get him cheap, knowing that 518 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: this series of games was coming. Very favorable matchup last 519 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: week and another very favorable matchup this week all season 520 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: right and like no hard matchups left. Scott talked about 521 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor a little bit. He was just take a 522 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: chance on the quarterback. So I'll go to the rest 523 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: of the receiving game. I got all the wide receivers 524 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: on the bench. Their wide receivers are complete disaster, and 525 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 1: with Charles Clay out this week with a knee injury, 526 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 1: Nick Leary, Yeah, he's kind of a deep, deep desperation 527 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: play if you're really hurting for a tight end. He's 528 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: been on the field for of the plays the last 529 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: two weeks since Clay has been out, and the Raiders 530 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 1: have allowed three touchdowns to tight ends in the last 531 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: five weeks, four tight ends of top fifty eight yards 532 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: against the Raiders of the season. So a super deep 533 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: degrade for Nicko Weary. When we come back, Colts take 534 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: on the Bengals. Will tell you if there's any Bengals 535 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: you don't want to play when we return. You're distinctive. 536 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan, Welcome back to the 537 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: show Fantasy Football Weekly. I'm a fan. You're number twenty three. 538 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: Paul Archie and Matt Harrison and Scott Fish with you, 539 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 1: um Twitter follower. Paul notes, we can't bench all these players. 540 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: You're saying, the bench when six teams are on by, 541 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: and I get that. You know we can't make them 542 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: score more points because six teams are on by, But 543 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: you know it does loosen up a little bit. Of 544 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: you know what, we what I consider you know what 545 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: what considers a a C grade A little bit for me, 546 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: but just starts to start all your Patriots running backs. 547 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: Is the gist of the story. Yeah, that was that 548 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: for taking from taking chance of me. That was more 549 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:32,400 Speaker 1: than the gist of it. That was the whole story. 550 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: I think Colts take on the Bengals in this game 551 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: this week, not this game this week. Let's just go 552 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: in a game this week. A grade for Joe Mixon, 553 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: a potential breakout workhorse. Are you Bell Kyle Game concerned 554 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: about the lack of any carries in the second half 555 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: last week? Yes, I am, as a matter of fact, 556 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: but not so much that I'm I'm even conmoly considering 557 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: not starting mixing. I think he goes right back to 558 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: getting the vast majority of the work here. Bengals should 559 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: be ahead throughout the game. That means the game flow 560 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: is going to be on the ground largely. He draws 561 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: a Colts defense that ranks twenty six and run defense. 562 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: They've surrendered the most total touchdowns to opposing backs. I 563 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 1: love mixing in this game. In a pinch, you could 564 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: go maybe Jeremy Hill or Giovanni Bernard if you have to, 565 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: if maybe Twitter Twitter follower Paul looking for somebody on 566 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: the six team by week uh in the theory being 567 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: that the Bengals could have had so much that they 568 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: go to their backup runners. Maybe it's gonna work that way. 569 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: Scott Fish nailed and Chris Ivory big game two weeks 570 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: ago into that theory, so maybe it works out that way. 571 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the passing game. Andy Dalton 572 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: is an A grade. He was might take a chance 573 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: on the quarterback A J Green obvious A grade, My 574 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,239 Speaker 1: top ranked wide receiver this week. What about some other 575 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: guys he could throw to, like Tyler Croft, who I 576 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: like in this game with a big aide. He's caught 577 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: three touchdowns in the last four weeks. This is his 578 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: strongest matchup of the year against the Colts. They have 579 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: bottomed bottom ten tight end rankings in receiving yards and 580 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: receiving touchdowns allowed. Tyler Croft available in a lot of leagues. Still, 581 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: you can go get him, pick him up. Lastly, Brandon 582 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: LaFell Indianapolis ranks thirty feet in yardage to wide receivers. 583 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: Last week against Jacksonville, Indie allowed the Jaguars wide outs. 584 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: The Jaguars white outs two hundred thirty seven yards to 585 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: the group, so there's enough room to go around. Can 586 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: I throw one more in there? Just for Paul, no 587 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: one else, listen, just Paul, this is John Ross. It 588 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: might be a sneaky play. He's gonna be He's supposed 589 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: to be, supposed to be significantly involved. Four to two forty. 590 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: The Colts have allowed forty pass plays of twenty or 591 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: more yards. That's the most in the league by ten. 592 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: He might get a big play. He really is possible. 593 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: John Ross remember first round raft picked by the Bengals, 594 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: and he is all speed baby. So yeah, in the pitch, 595 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: I think you could. You could go to him. I'd 596 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: rather I'd rather go but in John Ross and is 597 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: what should be his first meaningful game. It would be 598 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: a dark throw, but you could do it all right, 599 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: Indianapolis side, I've got starting grades on two players, but 600 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: just c grades. We begin with the running game. Marlon 601 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: Mack gets a seat. He'll get passing down work in 602 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: a game that should be one sided. So they're gonna 603 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: have to throw a lot. So I'd like Mac Cincinnati 604 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: vulnerable through the air, giving him nearly seven receptions per 605 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: games to running backs. They just gave up one two 606 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: total yards to Lavy on Belt, a lot good chunk 607 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: of that coming through the air, So Marlon Mack with 608 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: a C grade. Gore's on the bench, though, because they're 609 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: gonna be behind, he's losing snaps to Mac. The game 610 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: flow should go away from Gore in this one. No 611 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: running back has found the end zone against Cincinnati since 612 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: Week one, So I'll roll all that together and Gore's 613 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: on the bench. The only wide receiver you're gonna want 614 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: to touch here is t Y Hilton. Cincinnati is a 615 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: very solid secondary, but has shown some vulnerability to opposing 616 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: number one wide outs, who have cashed in four touchdowns 617 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: in the bengals last four games. He'll see more snaps 618 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 1: from the right side of the field in an effort 619 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: to match him up against Drake Kirkpatrick, who looks like 620 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: he's on his last legs and ranks ninety second among 621 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: quarterback cornerbacks by Pro Football Focus. So they can start 622 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: hilting every other part of the passing game is on 623 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: the bench. The Bengals are the number three pass defense overall. 624 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: They're giving up just one eight passing yards per game. 625 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: Four of the bengals six opposing quarterbacks zero or one touchdowns. 626 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: The guys who didn't were Aaron Rodgers and Ben Roethlisberger 627 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: and Jacoby Brissette. Is a long long way from those 628 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 1: guys every other part of the passing game on the bench. 629 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: Next matchup forty Niners taking on the Eagles. In this game, 630 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: Pierre Garth Stones got a juicy matchup Scott. He hasn't 631 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: scored yet. Are you gonna be bold and predict the 632 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: first touched out of the year for Pierre Garden? Sure, 633 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: let's do it, alright. Sure y'all pushed me in. I 634 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: took all the drama out of it, right. No, it's 635 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: that's a tough call. I mean this is this is 636 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: a great matchup, starting with the quarterback. Though c J 637 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: bat Third last week he had a good matchup tuning 638 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: outside of that rushing touchdown that saved your fantasy day 639 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: was not great. Are you saying CJ got beat hard? 640 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: I am like it, but he gets the bottom five 641 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: Philly d that's allowing just under three yards per game 642 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: and four multi touchdown games this year. I'm giving him 643 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: a C grade, but it's a shaky one. I probably 644 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: wouldn't start. I mean there's probably a better option, Uh, 645 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: Pierre Garsan, I'm giving an a minus grade. Bryan Johnson 646 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: allows that, right, No, as great, He's still get nine 647 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 1: targets a game. Yeah, you have to score a touchdown 648 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: based top ten and targets, receptions yards. It's a great matchup. 649 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: So the Eagles receivers allowing fifty yards or scored a 650 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: twelve different receive evers this year. I'll give him an 651 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: a minus. Uh over to Kittle. But over to Kittle, 652 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: Philadelphia has allowed the third most receptions, the fifth most yards, 653 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 1: and the fourth most touchdowns to tight ends. Terrible, terrible. 654 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: So it's a great matchup. But his snaps, oddly, his 655 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: snap percentage dropped to the whole Iowa connection or whatever Iowa. 656 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: I blew that call Iowa Iowa connection. What happened? Yeah, 657 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: his snap percentage nearly cut in half and they fell 658 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: way behind and he wasn't involved, only saw two targets 659 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: when they fell behind. They'll fall behind here, So I 660 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,879 Speaker 1: see grade because of the matchup. But man, that's tough. 661 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: Carlos Hyde at least seventy five yards in five of 662 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 1: his six games, but he gets the top five run 663 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: defense in the Eagles. I wonder how much of that 664 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:54,240 Speaker 1: is because everyone can pass. On the Eagles. They're allowing 665 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,240 Speaker 1: six receptions per game to running backs. Carlos Hide averaging 666 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: five targets per game, and he's already hit tied his 667 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: career his career record for season receptions to when he's seven, 668 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: so he might be able to make it up there. 669 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: B grade for him. On the Eagle side, Wentz and 670 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: Earths are A grades. I I don't know that I 671 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 1: need to go into it. They're they're just eight. I 672 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: don't need to exactly the league leader in touchdown passes, 673 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: and zach Ertz has the most fantasy points for any 674 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 1: tight end. Absolutely absolutely, yep. Weirdly, Jeffrey is not showing up. 675 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 1: Even though Wentz is on fire, he doesn't have He's 676 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: under seventy five yards for five straight games, only one 677 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: touchdown in that span. I'm only giving him a B 678 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: grade even though the four nis are a bottom ten 679 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:38,760 Speaker 1: past defense elite opportunity, Yeah, great opportunity for him. B grade. 680 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 1: He might he might show up today. What about revenge 681 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: game for Tory Smith? They didn't want him? I see 682 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: with revenge very big with revenge only Brian, I have 683 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,879 Speaker 1: him on the bench, all right. I don't blame you, Nels. 684 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm giving him an A grade Quarterbacks. Quarterbacks throw into 685 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: the slot against the forty nine hundred, forty two point 686 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: nine passer rating four touchdowns. There you go, Twitter follower Paul, 687 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: he was my he was my original take a chance 688 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: to me wide receiver, and then I went, aglar is 689 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: a little too obvious. So you know that's when I 690 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: brought it down to Benny Fowler. So yeah, I love 691 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: giving him an A all right, onto the running game. 692 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: I am weirdly splitting these two, Blunt and small Wood. 693 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,720 Speaker 1: I'm giving him both B grades. It's a great matchup 694 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 1: against a bottom two run defense bottom too, yes, exactly. Well, 695 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,320 Speaker 1: it depends on the category you're looking at. But Blunt 696 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,359 Speaker 1: is only averaging fourteen carries per week over the last 697 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: five weeks, and the four ns are only giving up 698 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: three point nine yards per carries. So even if Blunt's 699 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of carries, he's not involved in 700 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 1: the passing game just just to make up a great day. 701 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: But he might get it. So I'm giving him a 702 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,439 Speaker 1: B grade. Small Wood, I love though forty niners ranked 703 00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 1: dead last in receiving yards, receptions and receiving touchdowns to 704 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 1: running backs. That's where small Wood. That's where small Wood lives. 705 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: He was going to be one of our original take 706 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 1: a chance on me players near seven receptions the game 707 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,359 Speaker 1: to running backs. That's all small would be great for him. 708 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: Love him this week. Now I've got small with it 709 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 1: running back number. That's how much I like him. Final 710 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: matchup of this segment and Matt, Yeah, if you're slow 711 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 1: about it, we're not gonna get to our callers, So 712 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to You're gonna have to find a 713 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 1: way to plow through a lot of guys to talk 714 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,919 Speaker 1: about in the Chargers and Patriots matchup. Well, let's start 715 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 1: with the Patriots running game, which we pretty much covered 716 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: and detailed him depth, and take a chance. Mike gillis 717 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: Lee was the only guy we didn't cover. I gotta 718 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: see start for him. It's worth noting that his touch 719 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 1: totals have declined from twelve to ten to eight over 720 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 1: the last three weeks, but he still remains the goal 721 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: line back and probably the guy who has the best 722 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: chance of scoring a touchdown. No fumble goes unpunished by 723 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: Bill Belichi. That's true, Tom Brady, I gotta be grade on. 724 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: No quarterback is top two two yards against the Chargers 725 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: this year, although I expect Brady to do so. But 726 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: it's a legit Chargers past defense. That's why Brady gets 727 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 1: a B instead of an A. Brandon Cooks also getting 728 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,439 Speaker 1: a B. Cooks is averaging a career high nineteen point 729 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: two yards per catch in his top eighty five yards 730 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 1: are scored in each of the last three weeks. He's 731 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: doing great. He's still be Chris Hogan has topped seventy 732 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,320 Speaker 1: yards or scored in five of the last six. He 733 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: gets a B as well. They run at the two 734 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: best corners. Cooks and Hogan run at the two best 735 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 1: corners the Chargers have in Casey Hayward and Trevor Williams. 736 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,919 Speaker 1: Though Danny Amondola practicing through a knee injury. I'm giving 737 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 1: him a CE because he gets the easiest draw against 738 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 1: slot corner Desmond King. Chargers defense is top ten and 739 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: yards allowed to wide receivers, but have allowed the third 740 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: most touchdowns to the wide receiver position nine and seven games, 741 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: so there's gonna be some touchdowns had by the wide receivers. Gronk, 742 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: I gotta be the tight end is never scored a 743 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 1: touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers. Never, never, There you go, 744 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 1: So there we go. They did hold told Travis Kelsey 745 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 1: to one catch for one yard earlier this year, but 746 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: zach Ertz ding them for five catches in eighty one yards. 747 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,400 Speaker 1: I think it's a little bit more of the Travis 748 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: or zach Ertz games. Now. This is the only this 749 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 1: is the only B grade I've given Gronk all year. Yeah, 750 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 1: I think so. So then we can flip on over 751 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 1: to the Charger side. Melvin Gordon. I have an a 752 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: Gordon still has the questionable tag next to his name, 753 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: but he practiced in full on Friday, which leaves back 754 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: up Austin Ekeler on your bench despite him being a 755 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: sneaky handcuff grab grab five seven years. This season, yeah, 756 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: Gordon's averaging twenty point six touches per game and the 757 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: Pats are allowing a jaw dropping four point eight yards 758 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 1: per carry this season. I talked about Philip Rivers, he was, 759 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 1: might take a chance to me quarterback. I talked about 760 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: Tyrrell Williams, he was, might take a chance to me 761 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 1: wide receiver. Keenan Allen getting an a in this. Uh, 762 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: don't have to say too much because the Patriots are 763 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: so bad against wide receivers. I'll say this though, I 764 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 1: think Malcolm Butler is just gonna fall shadow him. Okay, 765 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,800 Speaker 1: and Stephan Gilmour may again may miss another game, and 766 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 1: so I think there's an opportunity. I think there's an 767 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: opportunity for Keenan Allen to have a a worse than 768 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: expected game and for the other receivers to you all right, 769 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 1: he hasn't scored since Week one, nine targets in six 770 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: or six or seven of his games this season, so 771 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:09,879 Speaker 1: the quantity is there. Travis Benjamin I got on the bench. 772 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: It's truly scored twice last week. One was a punt return, 773 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,320 Speaker 1: the other was his loan target in the game. So 774 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 1: I'm not following that. But Hunter Henry, I have a 775 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: be on Henry's top. Seventy yards are scored in four 776 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: straight weeks, and the Pats are bottom ten in both 777 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 1: catches and yards allowed to the tight end position this year. 778 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 1: Let's get some calls. Yeah, we should. Um. If it 779 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: turns out Stephane Gilmour can't go, Johnson Batamosi will be 780 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: you're starting. Johnson BATAMOSEI is actually played really well for 781 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: the Patriots this year. If you check the metrics on it, 782 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: he's he's probably been their best corner. I just like 783 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 1: to say it's fun to Johnson Batamosi. Yeah, read in Michigan. Hello, Hey, 784 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: how's it going good? Thank you? We love read in Michigan. 785 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: It's been a while. Yeah, I've been laid up for 786 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,839 Speaker 1: a while anyway. My question is in a full point 787 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 1: PPR Hogan or Smallwood in my spot. I I like 788 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 1: small Wood. I really like Yeah, I really like small Wood. 789 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 1: This week, I wouldn't be surprised if he gets five 790 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 1: or six catches to go along with the rushing to 791 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: receive yards. Were all, we're all over, We're all over Smallwood. Hey, 792 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:23,879 Speaker 1: would you drop Martevius Bryant to pick up the Shawn Jackson? Oh? Yes, ye, 793 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: you could just stop at the first half of that. 794 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 1: Would you drop Martevis Bryant? Correct? Yes, you know there's 795 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,320 Speaker 1: somebody else available in your league that you'd rather have. 796 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: All right, can you just leave me on hold and 797 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 1: I can hang up at lightning? You round? Sure this works? Uh? 798 00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 1: If Reid is laid up isn't it easier if he's 799 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 1: been laid up? Isn't it easier to call in? I 800 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 1: think so? Ben, Hello, if his fingers don't work very well?

Um, and really the 809 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: only question is Hunter Henry. I gave him the PPR 810 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 1: as the full point. Do you play him or Kyle Rudolph. 811 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 1: I'm kind of already have Henry and and I didn't 812 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: hear what you guys said about Yeah, I've got him 813 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 1: ranked number two and number four, so I like both 814 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 1: of them a lot.

I have 824 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 1: de Shaun Watson and Jameis Winston uh and looking towards 825 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 1: uh setups, looking uh looking forward to it. Who should 826 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:17,839 Speaker 1: I start? Being that Watton has to play San Francisco, Jacksonville, 827 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:20,800 Speaker 1: and pitt and then Winston has some play Detroit, Atlanta 828 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:22,879 Speaker 1: and Carolina. I'm looking to trade one of those two, 829 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: but with Winston's shoulder kind of scares me to trade 830 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: either one of them. I don't. I don't. I wouldn't 831 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: trade either one. Play the matchups in your playoffs with 832 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 1: those two now, then wait till after this weekend, see 833 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 1: if Watson truly is matchup proof. Okay, And the only 834 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: reason why is that I'm actually rolling with Alvin Kamara 835 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 1: and I think uh Lean's Dark Wall and Johnson Stewart, 836 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: and I wanted to kind of get rid of John Stewart, 837 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: but I got Devin Tovin Coleman. So that's the only 838 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:54,879 Speaker 1: reason why I wanted to trade one of those guys. Yeah, 839 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 1: well we all we all think you should stand Pat. 840 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 1: Let's you get a really significant deal.

Many thanks as always 855 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: to our friends at the Brewery, Shaan, Ryan, Ted and 856 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 1: Jody Marty for all their all their support for the show, 857 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:24,200 Speaker 1: which is fantastic and by the way, so is Grainbell Premium. 858 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:25,800 Speaker 1: It was so fun to end that show from the 859 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: Brewery this year. That was Oh yeah, that was a 860 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:29,840 Speaker 1: lot of fun and you got to meet Ted and Jody. 861 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 1: Great people. Hot question number one, Carson Palmer's gone on 862 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 1: i R effectively ending his season. Can we drop all 863 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 1: the Cardinals receivers. No. I think Fitzgerald is still gonna 864 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 1: be flexible. He's still gonna get the volume. Although with 865 00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 1: stan In he's only top fifty yards once, so it's 866 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 1: not looking good. But I think he's at least still 867 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 1: flex of Okay, yeah, I'm kind of on the same thing. 868 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,880 Speaker 1: I think you can drop everybody, but Larry Fitzgerald, um 869 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 1: blame Gabbert might be slightly better than Drew Stanton and 870 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 1: might get a chance at some point along the way, 871 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 1: So there's the little hope there. I think he's still 872 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,759 Speaker 1: a wide receiver three or flex in most leagues, but 873 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 1: I can't imagine he has any value on the trade 874 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 1: market right now. But he's one of those guys that 875 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,280 Speaker 1: Church might say right here, that is a sabotage drop 876 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 1: in your league, and he's a guy that would be 877 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:29,759 Speaker 1: picked up and held on roster. So if you have 878 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 1: a strong wide receiver corps, you could go with the 879 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,479 Speaker 1: sabotage drop of Larry Fitzgerald. Of that when I wrote 880 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 1: the question before, before I knew the answer, you know, 881 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 1: which is mostly how I worked this is I try 882 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 1: to find questions that I'm honestly not sure about, and 883 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I thought the answer was going to 884 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 1: be sabotage, drop Larry and drop everybody else. But then 885 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 1: I went through the schedule and I thought about, really, what, 886 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 1: I are there gonna be any scenarios left from starting Fitzgerald, 887 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 1: and there's going to be probably another five times when 888 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,799 Speaker 1: he's gonna get a C grade the rest of the way. 889 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:07,839 Speaker 1: So I'm like, I can't quite drop Larry Fitzgerald. Hot 890 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 1: Question number two, what's the appropriate level of panic for 891 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 1: those fantasy owners holding Green Bay receivers? Mild moderate internal 892 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:23,920 Speaker 1: distress or a fistfull of prozac level of panic. I 893 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 1: think they're so talented that I'm just moderately worried, but 894 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 1: not not too much right now. Some moderate internal distress 895 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 1: I related more like to to lane in bed, and 896 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:35,879 Speaker 1: you hear some noises, and let's give it a week 897 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 1: or two to check it out. See if you see, 898 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 1: if you know some mouse droppings. Maybe it was maybe 899 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:41,360 Speaker 1: it was the wind. Maybe it is some mice in 900 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 1: the walls. But I'm not I'm not too worried yet. 901 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: I need to see a little bit more of Honey 902 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 1: before let's let's give it a week or two to 903 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: see if there's mice. No, I'm talking. I'm talking about 904 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 1: let's see a week or two more of Huntley before 905 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:56,880 Speaker 1: we get really scared. Okay, let's R E L A X. 906 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: All right, So you're taking mile, I said in internal distress, 907 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:07,200 Speaker 1: but it's moderate intestinal distresses. Moderate people remember our old 908 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: bit on Fantasy football almost daily. I went with a 909 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 1: cute panic panic. Yes. Um, the completion percentage for Hunley 910 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:18,279 Speaker 1: is just awful. He's thrown for one touchdown so far, 911 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,680 Speaker 1: four picks and about seven quarters of work. Jordi had 912 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 1: only four targets last week, Adams had only five. They 913 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:27,800 Speaker 1: combined for three catches and twenty five yards against the 914 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 1: Saints at home. It's possible that he's just really this bad, 915 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 1: and they're going to rely on Aaron Jones and the 916 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 1: defense to try to Chicago Bears a few wins until 917 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers gets back. So I'm super panicked about the 918 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 1: Green Bay wide receivers, you should be The appropriate level 919 00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:46,440 Speaker 1: of panic is the prozac level. There's just no coding 920 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 1: how bad Brett Hunley looked last week. I'd I'd like 921 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 1: to I'd like to say that there was and there's 922 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 1: he he will get better, but he needs to get 923 00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:56,120 Speaker 1: a lot better. I mean right now. You always were 924 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,359 Speaker 1: in the past where it will just start your pack 925 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 1: or receivers, you don't care even about the matchups are 926 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:03,480 Speaker 1: now we got a drill down on matchups, we got 927 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 1: a drill down on opponents, and the schedules bad they 928 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 1: got by this week. They get a neutral matchup with 929 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 1: Detroit next week. And by the way, Cobb is probably 930 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: gonna be on the bench, Davante Adams maybe on the 931 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 1: bench next week because he's gonna get the sleigh ride 932 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 1: next week in Detroit, So that's a worry. Then after that, 933 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 1: deeply negative matchups coming Chicago, Baltimore, Pittsburgh. That is the 934 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,400 Speaker 1: number fourteen, number five, and the number one wide receiver 935 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:37,880 Speaker 1: defenses by yards allowed. In fact, there's only one particularly 936 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:40,400 Speaker 1: positive matchup on the schedule for these receivers, and that's 937 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:44,440 Speaker 1: Week thirteen against Nampa. So your level of distress should 938 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 1: be high hot. Question number three. Can fantasy owners just 939 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 1: drop j Gi Matt? Uh No, they can't because he 940 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,360 Speaker 1: already played this week and he's locked in your lineup 941 00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:03,240 Speaker 1: or on your bench, or well here's the time, I'm Monday. Um, 942 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 1: he's averaging twenty five rushing yards or rushing attempts per 943 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,239 Speaker 1: game prior to heading into that Thursday night or last 944 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 1: week where they lost forty to nothing and game flow 945 00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 1: just went away from j j I. So I'm throwing 946 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 1: that one out the window. The touches will maintain. The 947 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 1: Dolphins are really missing that bye week that they sorely needed, 948 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 1: which would have been next week for them. Uh Gi, 949 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,319 Speaker 1: you still got the knee and elbow injuries that he's 950 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 1: working through. I'm not dropping him, but he's probably going 951 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:32,800 Speaker 1: to be a flex or a bench for me the 952 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:34,800 Speaker 1: rest of the way. All right, Scott, pretty much everything 953 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 1: Matt said I agree with. He gets too much volume 954 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 1: to drop. Plus he does look good on a lot 955 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,080 Speaker 1: of runs. Still, it's just that line is giving him 956 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 1: no room to breathe. I'm not dropping him yet. I'm 957 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna flex him a lot probably. Yeah. The temptation 958 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:49,880 Speaker 1: to drop him as high and I understand that, but 959 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:51,840 Speaker 1: he's still starting running back in the NFL with the 960 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,800 Speaker 1: fourth most carries in the NFL, and if the offensive 961 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:58,279 Speaker 1: line can give him anything to work with, j J 962 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 1: I can still be good. Devanny's hot question Number four 963 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 1: going forward is Alex Collins in RB one, in RB 964 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 1: two flex or bench Scott. I'm gonna go with r 965 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:16,960 Speaker 1: B two. His schedule isn't great. He only has to 966 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 1: two defenses that he'll play that our bottom half of 967 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 1: the league, otherwise their top half defenses all the way 968 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 1: through the rest of the season. But he's gonna start 969 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:29,160 Speaker 1: gaining a lot more volume. Mean, his five plus yards 970 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 1: per carry is really really good. And then I think 971 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: he showed last week that he can handle the load. 972 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:38,920 Speaker 1: I don't feel that way at all. Um. I like 973 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,360 Speaker 1: that The yards per carry have certainly been there so 974 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 1: far this year. The problem is the rushing attempts have 975 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 1: not been consistent. And if you believe that a Joe 976 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 1: Flacco is a good quarterback, be Joe Flacco is a 977 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 1: healthy quarterback or see they can win games forty two nothing. 978 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,000 Speaker 1: I don't think it favors the running game for the Ravens. 979 00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,840 Speaker 1: I think he's probably a flex player the rest of 980 00:51:59,880 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: the way, and he's gonna teeter between flex and bench 981 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,279 Speaker 1: if they can find a good matchup. He is a 982 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 1: flex player the rest of the way for the reasons 983 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:12,640 Speaker 1: that Matt just elusive hot question number five after this 984 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:17,160 Speaker 1: week's by is Sterling Shepherd. A wide receiver one, a 985 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:20,920 Speaker 1: wide receiver to a flex or a bench. Matt. I 986 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,239 Speaker 1: went into this one pretty negative, but once I dug 987 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 1: in uh, I figured out that despite how bad the 988 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 1: Giants have been, Eli Manning is still twelfth in the 989 00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:31,360 Speaker 1: NFL and passing yards and thirteen in the NFL and 990 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:35,279 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns. Then there's Shepherd and Evan Ingram as the 991 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,320 Speaker 1: only people he can really throw the ball to, and 992 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 1: that's about it. People forget that he also put up 993 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 1: eight touchdowns last year and had over a hundred targets, 994 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 1: and he was significantly downgraded in drafts this year because 995 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,800 Speaker 1: the addition of Brandon Marshall. Well, Brandon Marshall's gone, and 996 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:51,319 Speaker 1: so is Odell Beckham. So I think he's at least 997 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: worthy of a wide receiver too in most twelve team weeks. 998 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 1: All right, I'm going a little more than that, but 999 00:52:56,239 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 1: I can see your point. I'm going with flex just 1000 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 1: because he's gonna get so much volume for the rest 1001 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:03,439 Speaker 1: of the year. Every matchup he faces is a top 1002 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:06,400 Speaker 1: thirteen past defense except for two, and the two of 1003 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:10,480 Speaker 1: those two San Francisco and Arizona. He might get Patrick 1004 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 1: Peterson if he's the number one wide receiver when they 1005 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 1: play Arizona. I hate the man, I hate the schedule, 1006 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 1: but he a lot of passes. He's gonna get a 1007 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 1: lot of volume. I'm giving him a nice flex play. 1008 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 1: He has a wide receiver to Sterling Shepherd is and 1009 00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 1: the It's funny because I looked at the schedule and 1010 00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:30,760 Speaker 1: found it to be mostly favorable, including three straight startable 1011 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:35,680 Speaker 1: opportunities in the next four weeks. Rams Niners Chiefs. He's 1012 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:38,880 Speaker 1: got by this week, then rams Niners Chiefs. Those are 1013 00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:42,839 Speaker 1: the number seventeen, twenty four, and twenty eight ranked defenses 1014 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,880 Speaker 1: by wide receiver yards allowed. So I saw the schedules 1015 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:47,839 Speaker 1: are positive. Well, you touched him. That I think really 1016 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:51,400 Speaker 1: deserves more um time on is whether or not the 1017 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,320 Speaker 1: Giants are gonna take Sterling Shepherd out of the slot 1018 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,400 Speaker 1: and bump him outside. I think that they will, and 1019 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 1: that they should because us next year they need a 1020 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:06,760 Speaker 1: replacement for Brandon Marshall on the outside opposite Odell Beckham. 1021 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,760 Speaker 1: This is a great opportunity to get Sterling Shepard Reps 1022 00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:13,359 Speaker 1: on the outside. He's their best receiver the slot. It's 1023 00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 1: not like you can't be an effective receiver from the slot. 1024 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:18,360 Speaker 1: Obviously you can be, but you can't. It's hard to 1025 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: be an elite number one receiver when you are playing 1026 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:24,920 Speaker 1: from the slot position. So I think they're gonna bump 1027 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,239 Speaker 1: him outside, and to your point, that means he's going 1028 00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:30,839 Speaker 1: to draw guys like Josh Norman and Patrick Peterson, two 1029 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:34,160 Speaker 1: players too, tough tough corners that are on the schedule, 1030 00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:37,280 Speaker 1: but those are the only two shutdown corners on the schedule. 1031 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:39,400 Speaker 1: Those too. I bet they just move him around a 1032 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:41,759 Speaker 1: lot that could happen as well, which would make sense, 1033 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 1: and try to find favorable matchups. So there we go. Hey, 1034 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 1: I went five for five. Nicely done. You're only one. 1035 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:52,319 Speaker 1: You're only one short of the all time record for five. 1036 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 1: Last two get the six for five. I'm I'm really 1037 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 1: looking forward to the extra credits. My matchups for him 1038 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:04,640 Speaker 1: were based Don Sharp Warren Sharp, so like um, A 1039 00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:06,560 Speaker 1: couple of things I want to know before we move 1040 00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:11,200 Speaker 1: on to our our next set of matchups. Weather issues 1041 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:15,799 Speaker 1: brewing on the East coast. The Jets game. Uh, it's 1042 00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,319 Speaker 1: all rain, by the way, and but potentially very heavy rain. 1043 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 1: You're gonna want to pay attention to this. How cold 1044 00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:25,640 Speaker 1: will it be? Um? Not very cold? There's enough for No, 1045 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:30,759 Speaker 1: don't no, not yet, save it, save it. It's coming. No. 1046 00:55:31,040 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 1: We almost had it here. We almost had conditions here yesterday. Uh. 1047 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:40,919 Speaker 1: Jets game, potential of rain, Eagles game at home rain 1048 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: the uh oh. And the last one is the Washington 1049 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 1: Redskins game. Rain, So watch those. Even the Bills are 1050 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:50,839 Speaker 1: gonna get light rain, but that shouldn't be as bad 1051 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,799 Speaker 1: on the other side of New York. So that's those 1052 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,400 Speaker 1: are ones you want to pay some attention to before 1053 00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:00,160 Speaker 1: before kickoff. They the Redskins game is an evening, so 1054 00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:02,799 Speaker 1: that one's gonna be a little bit trickier. By and large, though, 1055 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:05,920 Speaker 1: I don't let rain change my opinions on on things 1056 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:10,200 Speaker 1: unless it's really really severe. Um. For the most part, 1057 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,879 Speaker 1: I don't let that that stop me. But there there's 1058 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:14,600 Speaker 1: a chance it is going to be pretty severe rain. 1059 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 1: I think we could talk more about the Redskins and 1060 00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:20,640 Speaker 1: why don't we right to that. Right now, Redskins take 1061 00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:23,399 Speaker 1: on the Cowboys and Matt, I understand there could be rain, yes, 1062 00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 1: but it's going to be well above thirty two wish degrees. 1063 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 1: So we're from there. There is that. Fortunately, it's my matchup. Now. 1064 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,880 Speaker 1: You're sorry because you brought it up. I assumed it 1065 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:37,799 Speaker 1: was yours. I was just trying to help you out. 1066 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Thank you. Well done. Redskins running game. 1067 00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:45,080 Speaker 1: Chris Thompson has been a fantastic find and he's He's 1068 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:48,360 Speaker 1: really Kirk Cousin's most reliable option in the entire passing 1069 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 1: game at all positions. He's now gone for one hundred 1070 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 1: total yards and or a touchdown in five of the 1071 00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:57,960 Speaker 1: last six games. Another favorable matchup this week against the Cowboys, 1072 00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 1: who give up four and a half it's per carried. 1073 00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:03,320 Speaker 1: They've given up eight or more targets two running backs 1074 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 1: in four different games this year. So Chris Thompson keep 1075 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 1: the good times of rolling baby. He also leads the 1076 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 1: Redskins in rushing and receiving, so that too, um and 1077 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:17,400 Speaker 1: for that reason, Rob Kelly's on the bench. Soma p 1078 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 1: Ryan clearly on the bench as well. Kelly only had 1079 00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 1: seven rushes last Monday, and that was a close game. 1080 00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 1: If this one isn't close, to be potentially even worse. 1081 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 1: So I don't, I don't, I'm not. I'm not interested 1082 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 1: in Rob Kelly at this stage. Let's go to the 1083 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,800 Speaker 1: passing game. Kirk Cousins gets to be Dallas currently ranks 1084 00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:37,120 Speaker 1: nineteenth against the past and passing touchdowns allowed, and Cousins 1085 00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:40,040 Speaker 1: smoked the Cowboys in the two games last year. Is 1086 00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:44,600 Speaker 1: average game against the Cowboys last year three hundred seventy 1087 00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: five yards and two and a half touchdowns. Cousins has 1088 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,560 Speaker 1: thrown multiple touchdowns and three straight games. And the benching 1089 00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 1: of Terrell Prior is an addition by subtraction, he's on 1090 00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 1: the bench as well. What the heck happened? By the way? 1091 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 1: Drop her ble outright, just dropped, just dropped Terrell. There's 1092 00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 1: there's a touch of sabotage drop in that one, just 1093 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 1: a little bit. Jamison Crowder is the guy that earlier 1094 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:08,040 Speaker 1: in the year I said is gonna bounce around rosters 1095 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:10,800 Speaker 1: and every team's gonna have him once and try him. 1096 00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:12,920 Speaker 1: He's on the bench here. He's working out of the 1097 00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:16,280 Speaker 1: slot that matches him up against solid cornerback Orlando Scandrick 1098 00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 1: Crowder hasn't found the end zone this year, hasn't topped 1099 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,560 Speaker 1: sixty receiving yards all year. And the funny thing is 1100 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:25,520 Speaker 1: last year he was good. He was startable in spots. 1101 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 1: He was maybe the best receiver at times. Last year. 1102 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 1: Nothing out of Crowder this year. He's got to be 1103 00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:34,680 Speaker 1: on the bench. Unfortunately, Josh Dockson was Scott Fish's take 1104 00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 1: a chance on the wide receiver. He's got a C 1105 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,480 Speaker 1: grade for me. Jordan Reid's got to see he broke 1106 00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:42,120 Speaker 1: out last week and now he goes up against the 1107 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense that he lit up for ten catches, ninety 1108 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:47,000 Speaker 1: five yards and two scores of Week twelve in Week 1109 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,640 Speaker 1: twelve of last season. But they've been really good against 1110 00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 1: tight ends this year, averaging just four catches per game. 1111 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,760 Speaker 1: They've only given up one tight end touchdown. And Jordan 1112 00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 1: Reid was awful in every game besides the one last week. 1113 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 1: So I don't trust him enough to move him ahead 1114 00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 1: of a C grade. Let's go to the Dallas side. 1115 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:07,640 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott obvious A grade. He's my number two ranked 1116 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 1: running back overall this year. Even though Washington is a 1117 00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:13,320 Speaker 1: good run defense, He's still obviously somebody you're gonna start 1118 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:17,320 Speaker 1: in all situations. In the passing game, Dak Prescott's quietly 1119 00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 1: having an elite fantasy year with multiple passing touchdowns in 1120 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 1: every game since the opener. The Redskins secondary has slumped 1121 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 1: without Josh Norman, but it looks like he will return. Here. 1122 00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:30,959 Speaker 1: Washington had fallen to twentieth against the past thirty feet 1123 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:36,760 Speaker 1: against quarterback rushing, and here's Prescott averaging twenty two rushing 1124 00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:39,840 Speaker 1: yards per game against Washington last year. He scored a 1125 00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 1: touchdown on the ground in both games against Washington last year. 1126 00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:51,040 Speaker 1: So Dak Prescott a grade. Des Bryant remains in a grade. 1127 00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:53,280 Speaker 1: Even with Josh Norman coming back, he probably is not 1128 00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 1: playing it close to full strength here. Brian has found 1129 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:59,080 Speaker 1: ways to put up solid fantasy numbers despite great coverage 1130 00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 1: from a lot of good corner backs, including Patrick Peterson 1131 01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:04,120 Speaker 1: got a touchdown of that game, and so there's a 1132 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 1: lot of good operat plus the Josh Norman does Bryant 1133 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:10,440 Speaker 1: cute trash talk commercials. I never seen it. I never 1134 01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: seen need to see that. Gross. He has scored in 1135 01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:17,240 Speaker 1: four the past five games last year against Norman, does 1136 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:20,160 Speaker 1: put up. These are combined put up a hundred two 1137 01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:23,040 Speaker 1: yards and seventy two yards in the two games, but 1138 01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:25,400 Speaker 1: did not score. I've still got an a grade on 1139 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 1: des Bryant, b great on Jason Witten. The Redskins rank 1140 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 1: dead last in receiving yards to opposing tight ends eight 1141 01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:35,400 Speaker 1: seven per game. Meanwhile, wins fourth among tight ends and 1142 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,200 Speaker 1: receptions and touchdowns. And if she have no problem getting 1143 01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:42,040 Speaker 1: open against a defense that's been particularly hard hit against 1144 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 1: elite tight ends. Cole beasily is on the slot. It 1145 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:48,800 Speaker 1: runs from the slot. He's on the bench against Kendall Fuller, 1146 01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:52,240 Speaker 1: a good slot corner. Let's take a break when we 1147 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:55,840 Speaker 1: come back. Final set of matchups. We've got lightning round looming, 1148 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:59,160 Speaker 1: premature speculation, plenty more to get to when we return 1149 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:03,840 Speaker 1: to Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan. You're distinctive Fantasy 1150 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: Football Weekly on the Fan. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly 1151 01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 1: on the Fan. We've got a handful of matchups to 1152 01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:25,920 Speaker 1: get through here and then we'll get to premature speculation. 1153 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:28,880 Speaker 1: Lightning round. We begin with the Texans going to the Seahawks. 1154 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 1: The highest scoring quarterback in many fantasy leagues has been 1155 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:38,400 Speaker 1: to Shawn Watson, and now Scott he travels to Seattle 1156 01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:42,080 Speaker 1: for a brutal matchup. What do you think does he 1157 01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:44,400 Speaker 1: keep the hot street going or does he cool off here? 1158 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,840 Speaker 1: It's tough to tell. He did tear up New England, 1159 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 1: Kansas City, Tennessee, and Cleveland, who were all bottomed defense 1160 01:01:54,040 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 1: at the time. But Seattle is only allowing just over 1161 01:01:56,440 --> 01:02:00,640 Speaker 1: two yards to quarterbacks and five touchdowns on the season. 1162 01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 1: That's it. That's unreal. Watson, however, second NFL touchdown passes, 1163 01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:08,160 Speaker 1: but he leads in points per game or you know, 1164 01:02:08,320 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 1: rushing yards per game, so that's that might be where 1165 01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:13,480 Speaker 1: he can make up some of the ground. I'll mention this, 1166 01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 1: Seattle is not giving up a quarterback rushing touchdown in 1167 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:19,960 Speaker 1: fourteen games. I thought you're gonna say, like fourteen years. 1168 01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:22,400 Speaker 1: That Actually when I when I when I did the 1169 01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,360 Speaker 1: stat I thought it was gonna be like I looked 1170 01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:27,000 Speaker 1: it up and it was fourteen. But it's still a lot. 1171 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 1: I'm a big Watson fans. I'm giving him a partly 1172 01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 1: biased B grade to think that he can rise a 1173 01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:35,920 Speaker 1: little bit above the matchup, but be grade for him, 1174 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:39,080 Speaker 1: be great for Hopkins. He's probably gonna get Sherman hopefully 1175 01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:41,640 Speaker 1: they move him around a little bit. But literally, did 1176 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 1: he get on the plane today? Yeah? Or any of 1177 01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 1: the Texans even gonna bother playing? Yeah, exactly, that's the 1178 01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:48,960 Speaker 1: next question. Well, if he does show up and the 1179 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 1: Texans do play, it doesn't really matter where he lines up. 1180 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:54,840 Speaker 1: That defense it's really solid. They've only allowed three touchdowns 1181 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:57,480 Speaker 1: to wide receivers this year, but that eleven targets per game. 1182 01:02:57,720 --> 01:02:59,960 Speaker 1: He gets fed so many. How many people are gonna 1183 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:07,479 Speaker 1: show up to the Seattle game wearing like the orange jumpsuit? Wouldn't? Yeah, 1184 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 1: man could be sorry, continue grade Hopkins will fuller C grade. 1185 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,439 Speaker 1: I I don't even like it, but I can't deny 1186 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 1: that it keeps scoring. How is he doing it? Five 1187 01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:24,400 Speaker 1: touchdowns on just fourteen targets. That's not sustainable, It's not 1188 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 1: at all. But I guess I'm gonna ride that horse 1189 01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:28,720 Speaker 1: until she bucks me, and I'm I'm gonna throw him 1190 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:30,280 Speaker 1: in there with a C grade just in case he 1191 01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:32,960 Speaker 1: keeps scoring. Watson seems to like him there, So now 1192 01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna ride this horse until it poops in a wall. No, No, 1193 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 1: that's that's only for the mice man. You're not going 1194 01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:42,240 Speaker 1: to ride a mouse either right, it sounds like a 1195 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:47,160 Speaker 1: really weird country song. It does a mouse, maybe a 1196 01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:51,200 Speaker 1: lot of mouse, mice in the shape of craps. Thank you, 1197 01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:56,240 Speaker 1: thank you, Griffin giving it at tight end, giving him 1198 01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 1: a C grade. Uhas are allowing him about sixty yards 1199 01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:01,160 Speaker 1: per game in the tight end, which is not that good. 1200 01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,680 Speaker 1: And Griffin's getting six targets a game over the last four. 1201 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:07,320 Speaker 1: There's a matchup opportunity there. I don't love it, but 1202 01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,920 Speaker 1: I'm giving him a C grade. For Lamar Miller, uh, 1203 01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:14,360 Speaker 1: Seattle's top five against the run allowed the fewest receptions 1204 01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:18,120 Speaker 1: to running backs. But Lamar Miller has over eight yards 1205 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,160 Speaker 1: and three straight games and he's he's touching the ball 1206 01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:23,240 Speaker 1: fifteen times every single game. I'm giving him a C 1207 01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 1: grade just on just on the opportunity of volume there. 1208 01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 1: I'm benching Foreman. He's been too and consistent with his touches. 1209 01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:33,520 Speaker 1: Over on the Seahawks side, I'm giving Wilson in a 1210 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:37,400 Speaker 1: grade like a don't say you're gonna get in trouble. 1211 01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:41,960 Speaker 1: I almost said noe A grade. Uh it's a shaky one. Though. 1212 01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 1: The Texans were lit up by Tom Brady and Alex Smith, 1213 01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:49,480 Speaker 1: and they held down Bordles, Dalton, Hogan and that Mariotta 1214 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 1: Castle Combo. So I think Wilson's closer to the other two, 1215 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:58,160 Speaker 1: So I like him, giving him an A grade here. Baldwin, Uh, 1216 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:01,360 Speaker 1: favorable match up against Kream accs in, but just five 1217 01:05:01,440 --> 01:05:04,600 Speaker 1: wide receivers have over sixty yards against the Texans. That's 1218 01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:06,960 Speaker 1: probably Baldwin. He's probably the only one that's gonna do that, 1219 01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:10,240 Speaker 1: averaging eight and a half targets per game. The Texans 1220 01:05:10,280 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 1: secondary ravaged by injury before the bye week, now presumably 1221 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:16,040 Speaker 1: coming out of it, I think they're much much better shape. Yeah, 1222 01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:18,920 Speaker 1: that and for that reason, I'm benching Richardson and Lockett 1223 01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:22,760 Speaker 1: two inconsistent with their targets. Uh. Jimmy Graham, I'm giving 1224 01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:26,880 Speaker 1: him a B grade. Kelsey and Gronk tore up the Texans. Uh, 1225 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:29,400 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham scored in two straight. He's getting eight targets 1226 01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:31,880 Speaker 1: per game. You know, of the he's dropping like half 1227 01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:34,080 Speaker 1: of them, it feels like at this point. But he's 1228 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:36,040 Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of a lot of opportunity to 1229 01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:40,520 Speaker 1: make production here. Rawl's Lacey process mckiss. I'm I'm benching 1230 01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 1: them all. Texans Top five against the run. No running 1231 01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 1: back with under twenty five carries his top sixty yards. 1232 01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:50,200 Speaker 1: Nobody's getting twenty five carries for that backfield and I agree. 1233 01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:53,920 Speaker 1: I agree. Let's go to our next matchup, Steelers taking 1234 01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 1: on the Lions. Lions past defense can be awfully good. 1235 01:05:59,120 --> 01:06:02,800 Speaker 1: Ben roethlis time spen Roethlisberger, of course, always a shaky 1236 01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:04,600 Speaker 1: start on the road. What do you think about this 1237 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:07,400 Speaker 1: matchup for the passing game? Well, Big Ben happens to 1238 01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:10,720 Speaker 1: like Ford Field because it's the site of his victory 1239 01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:16,760 Speaker 1: twelve years ago. Story. Yes, Uh, he's not. I'm not 1240 01:06:16,800 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 1: afraid of Detroit's defense. Though, three of the last four 1241 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 1: quarterbacks to face the lines of thrown for multiple touchdowns. 1242 01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 1: The one that didn't was case Keenum. Uh so I 1243 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:27,720 Speaker 1: have Ben Roethlisberger is a B grade in this game, easy, 1244 01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:30,560 Speaker 1: A grade to Antonio Brown and Levy on Bell. Don't 1245 01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:33,040 Speaker 1: have to talk much more about them, Juju Smith Schuster. 1246 01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm getting him a C grade to The Steelers will 1247 01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:40,000 Speaker 1: be without Mark Tavis Bryant, who's on the scout team. Now, 1248 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:42,640 Speaker 1: I didn't know NFL teams had Scott teams, and I 1249 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:46,919 Speaker 1: don't think they do up just for him scout team 1250 01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:51,600 Speaker 1: and then man the taxi squad. Maybe Vance McDonald's also 1251 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 1: out of this game, so Juju gets a little bit 1252 01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:55,480 Speaker 1: of a bump. He's scored in three of his last 1253 01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:58,120 Speaker 1: six games. He will not draw the sleigh ride. He's 1254 01:06:58,520 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 1: Darius Slay is expected to go on Antonio Brownell game 1255 01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 1: because Vance McDonald's out. Some might think Jesse James, but 1256 01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:07,680 Speaker 1: he's still on the bench. He hasn't topped fifty yards 1257 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:11,280 Speaker 1: this season and he's caught zero point zero balls in 1258 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:15,040 Speaker 1: the last two weeks, so he's on the bench. Over 1259 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:18,040 Speaker 1: to the Detroit side, a Mere Abdullah gets a B grade. 1260 01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:21,680 Speaker 1: Joe Mixon was averaging almost seven yards per carry against 1261 01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:24,520 Speaker 1: the Steelers in the first half last week. Yeah, until 1262 01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:26,840 Speaker 1: then they didn't hand in the ball in the second half. 1263 01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:30,920 Speaker 1: I don't know why. Kareem Hunt, Leo for Nette, Jordan Howard, 1264 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 1: and the Alex Collins buck Allen Combo each topped one 1265 01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:36,520 Speaker 1: hundred total yards against the Steelers this season, So I 1266 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:40,280 Speaker 1: think a Mere Dula is a solid B. Matthew Stafford's 1267 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,840 Speaker 1: getting a C grade, but he's closer to a bench grade. 1268 01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 1: For me. No quarterback has topped two hundred forty six 1269 01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:48,240 Speaker 1: yards against the Steelers this season. In fact, they've had 1270 01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:51,600 Speaker 1: more quarterbacks throw for less than two hundred yards than 1271 01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:54,520 Speaker 1: more than two hundred yards. It's four to three right now, 1272 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:58,840 Speaker 1: so they've been very good against the pass. Plus, Golden 1273 01:07:58,920 --> 01:08:02,320 Speaker 1: Tate has a sprained a C joint and he was 1274 01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:05,280 Speaker 1: limited in practice all week, and I think I'm gonna 1275 01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:07,840 Speaker 1: put him on the bench just because this is a 1276 01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:10,960 Speaker 1: Sunday night game. Yeah, you don't know risk it. You 1277 01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 1: don't know completely if he's going to go. If you're 1278 01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:15,880 Speaker 1: absolutely desperate to have Golden Tate in your lineup, I 1279 01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:18,200 Speaker 1: think you think you have to have Juju Smith Schuster 1280 01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 1: as your backup. Maybe, but he's been rostered everywhere now. 1281 01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:27,320 Speaker 1: Marvin Jones or Benny Fowler, Churches Guy Ben That those 1282 01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:28,880 Speaker 1: are the three guys that I think you have to 1283 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:30,599 Speaker 1: have on the bench if you're planning on putting Tate 1284 01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:33,320 Speaker 1: in your lineup. For now, Marvin Jones is on the 1285 01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:36,800 Speaker 1: bench to Kenny Golladay is actually hurt as he had 1286 01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:39,280 Speaker 1: a setback. I don't think he's gonna go. Um he's 1287 01:08:39,320 --> 01:08:41,760 Speaker 1: been ruled out and uh Eric Ebron has failed the 1288 01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:44,320 Speaker 1: top ten yards in four of six can we just stop, 1289 01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 1: We just never bring up his name on the show again. Done? 1290 01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:52,880 Speaker 1: All right, good, thank you. When premature speculation, we'll give 1291 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 1: you guys to pick up one week before the rest 1292 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:56,880 Speaker 1: of your league Lightning Round in our final match up 1293 01:08:56,920 --> 01:09:00,200 Speaker 1: the Monday Night or Kansas City taking on Denver.

Yeah, that's always fun too. Chiefs take 1312 01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:18,760 Speaker 1: on the well, let's do premature speculation. We've done so many. Yeah, 1313 01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:21,759 Speaker 1: let's premature speculation again. These are guys that we encourage 1314 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:23,000 Speaker 1: you to pick up now that we think are gonna 1315 01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 1: be hot waiver wire targets next week, and you'll already 1316 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:29,560 Speaker 1: have him on your team. Scott, I'm going with D. D. Westbrook, 1317 01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:32,760 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver. He had a couple hundred yard 1318 01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:35,719 Speaker 1: games in the preseason. Uh, he's a big play threat. 1319 01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:38,160 Speaker 1: Had three catches for over thirty yards in the preseason. 1320 01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:42,080 Speaker 1: He's been on I R. He comes back after the bye. Uh. 1321 01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:45,200 Speaker 1: No one for Jacksonville is really stepping up and they're 1322 01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:47,320 Speaker 1: hurt a lot. So I don't think it's a good 1323 01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:50,280 Speaker 1: offense for passing very much. But you know it's it's 1324 01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:52,559 Speaker 1: a nice dart throw there. That is a dart throw, 1325 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:55,519 Speaker 1: all right. That was very tepid that really he didn't 1326 01:10:55,520 --> 01:11:00,120 Speaker 1: well portals is still his quarters. Yeah, I have a 1327 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,599 Speaker 1: guy who's not exciting as well. But I am excited 1328 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:06,719 Speaker 1: about an aspect of his matchup next week. It's Tyler Higbee. 1329 01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:10,120 Speaker 1: If you're in need of a tight end next week, alright, 1330 01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:12,240 Speaker 1: because next week there's a handful of really good tight 1331 01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:16,599 Speaker 1: ends on by Gronk Hunter, Henry and Antonio Gates, Kyle Rudolph, 1332 01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:19,240 Speaker 1: and if you're in a deep league, David and Joku. 1333 01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:23,080 Speaker 1: They're all on by next week. Tyler Higgbee gets the 1334 01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:26,760 Speaker 1: Giants next week, and the Giants fable defense has given 1335 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:29,320 Speaker 1: up a touchdown to a tight end eight times in 1336 01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:33,000 Speaker 1: seven games this season. So avoid the rush and pick 1337 01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:36,519 Speaker 1: up the take a chance on me end week, Tyler, 1338 01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:42,400 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna take full credit next week, alright. My 1339 01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:47,360 Speaker 1: premature speculation is first round rookie receiver Corey Davis for Tennessee, 1340 01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:49,920 Speaker 1: who has missed every game since Week one. Uh and 1341 01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:53,760 Speaker 1: in that game targeted ten times in that game, not 1342 01:11:54,200 --> 01:12:01,400 Speaker 1: nine times, nine times, principal, principle, not get that skinner, principal, 1343 01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:05,040 Speaker 1: look it up for me. All year, no other Titans 1344 01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:07,360 Speaker 1: receiver has been targeted more than the ten times that 1345 01:12:07,439 --> 01:12:10,240 Speaker 1: Corey Davis got in Week one. He's been languishing with 1346 01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:13,200 Speaker 1: his hamstring injury, but will resume practicing next week, and 1347 01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:17,240 Speaker 1: ESPN is reporting that he will play next week against Baltimore. 1348 01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:19,719 Speaker 1: So you need to pick him up this week. Ed Rooney, 1349 01:12:20,200 --> 01:12:24,000 Speaker 1: Ed Rooney Principal, Ed Rooney, Absolutely, that is exactly what 1350 01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:27,439 Speaker 1: it is. And is the guy the actor who played 1351 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:32,080 Speaker 1: out of jail jail. I think he's still in jail. 1352 01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:35,200 Speaker 1: The Titans have gotten almost nothing from their receivers. They 1353 01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:39,200 Speaker 1: need Corey Davis and especially is big play pop So 1354 01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:44,960 Speaker 1: Corey Davis premature speculation a great Ed Rooney quote. Yes, please. 1355 01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:47,519 Speaker 1: I did not achieve this position in life by having 1356 01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:50,400 Speaker 1: some snot nosed punk leave my cheese out in the wind. 1357 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:56,160 Speaker 1: Leave my cheese out in the wind. What Let's go 1358 01:12:56,240 --> 01:13:00,960 Speaker 1: to Chiefs Broncos. This is at Broncos. Kareem Hunt scoreless streak, 1359 01:13:01,040 --> 01:13:04,639 Speaker 1: by the way, is four games for Kareem Hunt. Drop 1360 01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:11,800 Speaker 1: a hell of its advantageding your own team. It will 1361 01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:14,639 Speaker 1: not get any easier against the Broncos, who have yet 1362 01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:19,040 Speaker 1: to allow a running back rushing touchdown this year. Now 1363 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:22,360 Speaker 1: they have given up two receiving scores, and Hunt obviously 1364 01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:25,519 Speaker 1: is a very capable pass catcher. Uh He's managed at 1365 01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:28,600 Speaker 1: least three receptions and six of his seven games to 1366 01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:31,439 Speaker 1: this point. B grade for Kareem Hunt. Let's go to 1367 01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:35,559 Speaker 1: the passing game. Alex Smith has never posted a three 1368 01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:39,679 Speaker 1: hundred yard game against Denver home or away. He's also 1369 01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:45,639 Speaker 1: his three straight one touchdown games against Denver. Denver secondary 1370 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:47,599 Speaker 1: has been a little more touchdown friendly this year. They've 1371 01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:50,479 Speaker 1: given up multiple scoring strikes in four or six games, 1372 01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:53,360 Speaker 1: but no quarterbacks top two fifty yards against them. They're 1373 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:56,320 Speaker 1: the sixth best in yardage allowed and third best in 1374 01:13:56,400 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: quarterback rushing yards allowed. So I see a middling performance 1375 01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:04,280 Speaker 1: here about for Alex Smith in the two hundred twenty 1376 01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:06,800 Speaker 1: five yard one and a half touchdown range. And that's 1377 01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:09,400 Speaker 1: similar what he did against Pittsburgh two weeks ago where 1378 01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:12,120 Speaker 1: he had two six and one. Yeah, very similar probably 1379 01:14:12,360 --> 01:14:15,840 Speaker 1: thank you yes, against another very good past defense. Uh. 1380 01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:18,280 Speaker 1: That means Tyreek Hill also a C grade. He did 1381 01:14:18,400 --> 01:14:21,160 Speaker 1: score both of last season's games with the Broncos, although 1382 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:23,439 Speaker 1: one of them was a rushing touchdown. Um, you're gonna 1383 01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:26,160 Speaker 1: have the banking and finding the end zone for fantasy relevance. 1384 01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:28,920 Speaker 1: Denver has given up six wide receiver touchdowns, but no 1385 01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:32,200 Speaker 1: whiteout is topped even sixty five yards against Denver all 1386 01:14:32,320 --> 01:14:36,160 Speaker 1: year they ranked second best and wide receiver yardage allowed, 1387 01:14:36,280 --> 01:14:39,759 Speaker 1: so it's a tough matchup for Tyreek Hill. Travis Kelsey 1388 01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:43,479 Speaker 1: though a grade here. It's so hard to beat Denver 1389 01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:46,559 Speaker 1: along the perimeter, along the edges, with the great corners, 1390 01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:48,479 Speaker 1: so a lot of teams will used the tight end 1391 01:14:48,560 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 1: for that. Tight ends are getting a six catches seventy 1392 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,400 Speaker 1: six yards per game against the Broncos since the season opener, 1393 01:14:55,439 --> 01:14:58,200 Speaker 1: and that's almost exactly what Kelsey averages. He's six and seventies, 1394 01:14:58,280 --> 01:15:01,280 Speaker 1: so we can pretty much count on that better. Better still, 1395 01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:05,599 Speaker 1: Kelsey obliterated the Broncos last just torched them nineteen catches 1396 01:15:05,640 --> 01:15:10,439 Speaker 1: in the two games, both of them one hundred yard 1397 01:15:10,520 --> 01:15:14,400 Speaker 1: performances against Denver last year. Denver is gonna watch the 1398 01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:15,800 Speaker 1: tape and they're gonna want to take it away, but 1399 01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:20,000 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that they can. A grade Travis Kelsey. 1400 01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:22,479 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Denver side. We'll start with the 1401 01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:24,920 Speaker 1: running game. I've just got a C grade on C. J. Anderson, 1402 01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:28,479 Speaker 1: who's deeply disappointed me the last two weeks, squandering two 1403 01:15:28,760 --> 01:15:32,800 Speaker 1: primo opportunities to hammer the Giants and the Chargers struggling 1404 01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 1: run defenses. You only got nineteen carries in those two games, 1405 01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:39,679 Speaker 1: so I want to give him a stronger recommendation. Here 1406 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:42,040 Speaker 1: he goes up against the Chiefs run defense that's giving 1407 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:44,920 Speaker 1: a four point seven yards per carry. But these are 1408 01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:49,639 Speaker 1: the same quality of opportunities he's had the last two weeks. Ah, 1409 01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:52,360 Speaker 1: I'll have to get his yardage on the ground because 1410 01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:55,080 Speaker 1: the Chiefs of Stemy deposing runners through the air, giving 1411 01:15:55,160 --> 01:15:59,240 Speaker 1: up just twenty five scoreless yards per game to running back. 1412 01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:01,920 Speaker 1: So Cjmerson just to see grade here, let's go to 1413 01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:04,479 Speaker 1: the let's go to the passing game. Trevor Simeon takes 1414 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:08,200 Speaker 1: his four games slide into arrowhead. No wait, this is 1415 01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:09,920 Speaker 1: a This is not a narrowhood. This is in uh. 1416 01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:13,479 Speaker 1: This is in Denver. Sorry, um seeming through for three 1417 01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:16,720 Speaker 1: hundred sixty eight yards and three touchdowns in UH in 1418 01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:20,400 Speaker 1: this matchup last year in Denver, Kansas Snow He didn't. Uh, 1419 01:16:20,560 --> 01:16:23,639 Speaker 1: yeah he did. Kansas City is allowed eleven touchdowns versus 1420 01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:25,439 Speaker 1: one pick through the air, and it's past four outing. 1421 01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:27,240 Speaker 1: They're giving up the third most passing yards and six 1422 01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:30,560 Speaker 1: months passing scores overall. C grade for Simeon. It's a 1423 01:16:30,640 --> 01:16:33,400 Speaker 1: nice matchup, but I don't trust him to exploit it. 1424 01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:35,880 Speaker 1: D Marius Thomas, though, does get an A grade that 1425 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:38,240 Speaker 1: one is an arrowhead, Church is an arrowhead, thank you 1426 01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:40,240 Speaker 1: very much. So how did I end up with this 1427 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:43,920 Speaker 1: in Broncos that Broncos. I don't know. Sorry, I will 1428 01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:46,040 Speaker 1: blame you. Actually, I think it was because I think 1429 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:49,360 Speaker 1: very well you think backwards in our in our matchup list, 1430 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:51,559 Speaker 1: I think it is on you. Kansas City's twenty eight 1431 01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:54,000 Speaker 1: and wide receiver yardage allowed. They've given up nearly three 1432 01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:58,080 Speaker 1: scores per game to the position. Thomas obviously is a 1433 01:16:58,160 --> 01:16:59,880 Speaker 1: very good receiver, but you don't even have to be 1434 01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:02,520 Speaker 1: very good to score in the Chiefs this year. Danny Amondola, 1435 01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:07,880 Speaker 1: Travis Benjamin will Fuller, Terrell Prior scored so all big 1436 01:17:07,920 --> 01:17:09,800 Speaker 1: games there for those guys I like to marry as 1437 01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:12,760 Speaker 1: Thomas and Bennie Fowler was my take a chance on 1438 01:17:12,880 --> 01:17:15,720 Speaker 1: the wide receiver, and I think he is a really nice, 1439 01:17:15,760 --> 01:17:21,559 Speaker 1: sneaky start. It's time for lightning round, my favorite lightning 1440 01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:24,160 Speaker 1: round of the year. It is our favorite lightning round 1441 01:17:24,360 --> 01:17:31,240 Speaker 1: of the year, the spookiest one great answer like vampires. No, 1442 01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,479 Speaker 1: you know how this works? It is one question and 1443 01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:43,559 Speaker 1: one question only between two players, and only two players, 1444 01:17:43,800 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 1: so you know the ground rules. Let's go. Peter, you 1445 01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:52,560 Speaker 1: are first? Hello? Hi? Uh DeAndre Hopkins or Brandon and 1446 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:57,439 Speaker 1: Cook Hopkins or Cooks. Wow, I think I'm going with 1447 01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:00,360 Speaker 1: I'm going with Cooks. I like his match a little 1448 01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:08,920 Speaker 1: bit better. Okay, John your next? Yeah? Or James White? 1449 01:18:09,040 --> 01:18:14,160 Speaker 1: Non video? You can't start, No, you can't. Brutal, brutal match. 1450 01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 1: Probably drop. It's almost that bad, it really is. Matt 1451 01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:28,200 Speaker 1: your next, Matt whom Matt, your cell phone's cutting out. 1452 01:18:28,240 --> 01:18:31,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, man, we can't hear you. Head. You're next? Yeah. 1453 01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:36,160 Speaker 1: I'm wondering about Breeze or Cousins. I got Drew Breese 1454 01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:38,600 Speaker 1: up at number two or no, sorry, number four at 1455 01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:41,439 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. It's a home game for Breeze. Over 1456 01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:44,960 Speaker 1: the last three years, his average home game three hundred 1457 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:48,160 Speaker 1: thirty three yards and two and a half touchdowns. So 1458 01:18:48,280 --> 01:18:52,439 Speaker 1: we're gonna take Breeze. Fill your next, guys, think Fuller 1459 01:18:52,560 --> 01:18:57,160 Speaker 1: or Fowler. Wow. I don't like Fuller's matchup, and he's 1460 01:18:57,240 --> 01:18:59,439 Speaker 1: he's not actually getting that many targets per game. I 1461 01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:01,320 Speaker 1: think I'm gonna go to take a chance on me. 1462 01:19:01,439 --> 01:19:04,120 Speaker 1: Fowler in this name Fowler. How about that? That's bold 1463 01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:09,000 Speaker 1: Kent You're next, Yeah, PPR, League Gain Jr. Or Smallwood? 1464 01:19:10,080 --> 01:19:13,880 Speaker 1: Who is again? Or Smallwood? You bet you put the 1465 01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:16,120 Speaker 1: junior and just so you knew it wasn't Ted Kain's father, 1466 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:21,200 Speaker 1: that's true. Yeah, I'm gonna go Smallwood, all right? Uh? Dan, 1467 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:26,360 Speaker 1: you are next on the fan? Hello halfpoint gprula or 1468 01:19:26,479 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 1: Doug Martin. Thank you. Yeah, I'm gonna take Abdulla in 1469 01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,840 Speaker 1: the easier matchup. The problem broadly with Doug Martin this 1470 01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:35,559 Speaker 1: year has been a defense is so bad they can't 1471 01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:37,360 Speaker 1: run the ball in the second half of games. And 1472 01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if that changesn't despite more carries, his 1473 01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:42,639 Speaker 1: rushing yards are going down each week, which is troubling 1474 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:48,360 Speaker 1: as well. John, You're next, bether or Simeon Bethard. I 1475 01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,400 Speaker 1: think your time about c J Bethard or Trevor Simeon. Yeah, 1476 01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:56,880 Speaker 1: probably Simeon against Kansas City. I think Ryan You're next, 1477 01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 1: non PPR. James White towards Gat non PPR. Yeah, that's that. 1478 01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:06,320 Speaker 1: I think it's helplessly when it's non PPR, he's got 1479 01:20:06,400 --> 01:20:08,559 Speaker 1: the better chance of the touchdowntown and so to Phil. 1480 01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:17,240 Speaker 1: Your next Cars Watson or car uh Cars playing Buffalo. Yeah, 1481 01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:19,519 Speaker 1: I've actually got him. I've got him right, very similarly 1482 01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:21,639 Speaker 1: tenth and twelve, but I've got Car a little bit higher. 1483 01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:25,679 Speaker 1: The Bill's pass defense will just run through by Jameis 1484 01:20:25,720 --> 01:20:28,240 Speaker 1: Winston and E. J. Gaines. Their cornerback is gonna be 1485 01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:33,040 Speaker 1: out for this game. Spin. It says Spin as your name, 1486 01:20:33,080 --> 01:20:35,240 Speaker 1: but maybe that's not right. I don't know, Hello, Spin, 1487 01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:40,479 Speaker 1: how are you doing standard Fleck, Sponge or Hogan. I'm 1488 01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:44,120 Speaker 1: gonna go with Hogan. I think Funchess has the better matchup, 1489 01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:48,360 Speaker 1: but I can't trust him. Yeah, good, Mark, you're on 1490 01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:54,080 Speaker 1: the fan Casey's defense against Denver or Newer New Orleans 1491 01:20:54,120 --> 01:20:59,680 Speaker 1: against Chicagoan. I'm going to take Kansas City's defense at 1492 01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:10,439 Speaker 1: home against Trevor Simeon. Arthur your next, yeah, Big or Smith. See, 1493 01:21:10,479 --> 01:21:12,720 Speaker 1: I'm nervous about Diggs, you know, I you know, there's 1494 01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:15,599 Speaker 1: so many scenarios where this thing could go ugly for Diggs, including, 1495 01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:18,680 Speaker 1: by the way, potentially very good coverage from McCarty, but 1496 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:22,960 Speaker 1: also the reinjury factor for a groin is always significant. 1497 01:21:23,280 --> 01:21:25,240 Speaker 1: The fact they have a bye week looming, the Vikings 1498 01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 1: could get ahead against the Windlass Browns and then rest Diggs. 1499 01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:30,640 Speaker 1: I'm worried. There's a lot of scenarios where this thing 1500 01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:33,120 Speaker 1: could go bad, badly for days. Luckily, you'll know if 1501 01:21:33,200 --> 01:21:36,559 Speaker 1: he's active very early, very early. We'll know if he's 1502 01:21:36,560 --> 01:21:45,280 Speaker 1: active sometime around seven am. Barry, You're next, or yeah, 1503 01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:48,160 Speaker 1: this is what happens when six teams are on by 1504 01:21:50,640 --> 01:21:54,040 Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna go with Simeon on this one. It's 1505 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:57,120 Speaker 1: it's really I'd go with McCown and in my mind, 1506 01:21:57,120 --> 01:21:59,040 Speaker 1: I'd at least take the guy who's playing well. Elkins 1507 01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:01,720 Speaker 1: matchup is better and he's playing good, So I don't 1508 01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:07,639 Speaker 1: think the best stuff that's better. LaVey, You're next, Ted 1509 01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:13,080 Speaker 1: Gain are the lifted as questionable? Emmanuel Sanders. I don't 1510 01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:17,439 Speaker 1: think Sanders is Bennit's that pretty easy answer that to be, really, 1511 01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:19,600 Speaker 1: because especially since the Monday night game, you gotta go 1512 01:22:19,640 --> 01:22:22,760 Speaker 1: a game unless you're packing up Fowler. Yeah, that ye back, 1513 01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:24,280 Speaker 1: and I could do that if you wanted to. But 1514 01:22:24,360 --> 01:22:28,320 Speaker 1: I think I just start in and simplify. Mike your next, 1515 01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:34,360 Speaker 1: Derek Carr or Jameis Winston. Uh, I got him ranked 1516 01:22:34,400 --> 01:22:37,439 Speaker 1: tenth and eleven, but I've got car one spot higher. 1517 01:22:37,479 --> 01:22:41,719 Speaker 1: We're gonna go with him. Kevin, You're next, Uh, Jenks 1518 01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:47,599 Speaker 1: or GPS right? Wow? Uh? I think I'm gonna leave 1519 01:22:47,680 --> 01:22:50,439 Speaker 1: Juju Smith against Detroit's I think he's got a better 1520 01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:53,360 Speaker 1: cornerback matchup as well. Let me mention this r gonna 1521 01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:55,640 Speaker 1: be just to know all my player rankings and the 1522 01:22:55,760 --> 01:23:00,320 Speaker 1: full explanations available at fanball and so you and see 1523 01:23:00,360 --> 01:23:02,519 Speaker 1: what went into the grading, and then you can decide 1524 01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:04,680 Speaker 1: yourself you agree or don't agree with how we've got 1525 01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:06,880 Speaker 1: our guys rank So we encourage you to check that 1526 01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:09,679 Speaker 1: out and it's totally free at fanball dot com. Brian, 1527 01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:15,519 Speaker 1: You're next? What's that Diggs or Schuster? Smith? Smith? Schuster's 1528 01:23:15,520 --> 01:23:19,120 Speaker 1: always said, I think that's what we said. I forget 1529 01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:21,360 Speaker 1: it out, but I think it might be Matt. Much 1530 01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:24,080 Speaker 1: like Charge said, I think we're pretty nervous about Diggs, 1531 01:23:24,120 --> 01:23:28,360 Speaker 1: and I think Juju SMI Juju in this matchup. Tom 1532 01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:33,559 Speaker 1: your next, Matt Ryan or Alex Smith? Um, Matt Ryan. 1533 01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:36,760 Speaker 1: I don't love the Alex Smith matchup in uh AT 1534 01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:42,919 Speaker 1: against Denver in Arrowhead, Jeff, you're next, Watson or Winston. 1535 01:23:44,560 --> 01:23:46,479 Speaker 1: I think I will lead Winston on that one. I 1536 01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:51,160 Speaker 1: love Watson of that matchup in Seattle's tough. Agreed, Chris, 1537 01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:56,559 Speaker 1: you're next, Hey, guys, show Carson Wentz, Uell. It's got 1538 01:23:56,680 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 1: to be Carson Wentz. The matchup is good, he's at home, 1539 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:02,240 Speaker 1: he's been stellar. You can't you can't bench him at 1540 01:24:02,280 --> 01:24:04,920 Speaker 1: this point. He's my number one. He's my number one 1541 01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:08,160 Speaker 1: ranked quarterback for this week as Carson Wentz. And we're 1542 01:24:08,200 --> 01:24:10,960 Speaker 1: not even it's not even chasing the last three weeks 1543 01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:12,720 Speaker 1: of awesome box scores. And once it is put up, 1544 01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:17,680 Speaker 1: it's the forty niners. Let's see. Yeah, how did you? 1545 01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 1: How did I lock a call?

I got a Dan Lewis or 1552 01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:48,280 Speaker 1: Austinian Jenkins in a PPR league, I'm gonna go Dion Lewis. 1553 01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:51,559 Speaker 1: I'm I I don't know why. I just don't trust 1554 01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:56,439 Speaker 1: Austin Seferian Jenkins. I just don't. I don't. I'm Dean 1555 01:24:56,520 --> 01:24:59,759 Speaker 1: Lewis and PPR league. Dan Lewis isn't catching me passes anymore, 1556 01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:02,680 Speaker 1: so I would go I'd go Severian Jens That's just 1557 01:25:02,800 --> 01:25:11,960 Speaker 1: me right, You're next, Okay, full Point PPR Buller or Curse. Uh. 1558 01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:14,680 Speaker 1: We don't like Fuller's matchup at all, so I think 1559 01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:16,800 Speaker 1: I'm and I don't like the volume, so I'm gonna 1560 01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:19,519 Speaker 1: go curse here. It's feels weird to say it, but 1561 01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:23,840 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna go curse. Dave You're next. Yeah, Hi, 1562 01:25:23,960 --> 01:25:26,560 Speaker 1: I gotta drop a running back and make room for 1563 01:25:26,600 --> 01:25:29,599 Speaker 1: a wider sever for next week? Would you drop Tarik 1564 01:25:29,680 --> 01:25:35,160 Speaker 1: Cohen or I did Rollo? I think I dropped Crowl both. 1565 01:25:35,560 --> 01:25:38,799 Speaker 1: I mean I dropped them both honestly, but kroll probably 1566 01:25:38,840 --> 01:25:40,680 Speaker 1: are those two. Yeah. If you need a tight end 1567 01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:46,360 Speaker 1: next week, pick up Tyler Higbee. Jason you're next. Yeah. 1568 01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:52,920 Speaker 1: Not only is your phone breaking up, but I think 1569 01:25:52,960 --> 01:25:55,600 Speaker 1: I heard the phrase two out of three and we 1570 01:25:55,640 --> 01:26:00,720 Speaker 1: don't do that here. Uh. Bill, you're on the fan? Yeah, 1571 01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:06,960 Speaker 1: looking for a quarterback? I have River and Carson Wentz 1572 01:26:07,040 --> 01:26:08,960 Speaker 1: my number one quarterback of the week, and I like 1573 01:26:09,160 --> 01:26:12,080 Speaker 1: I love revers and number five, but you can't top 1574 01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:15,000 Speaker 1: Wents his matchup this week. Bryan, you're on the fan. 1575 01:26:16,320 --> 01:26:21,439 Speaker 1: They I got knead or big non PPR. Same same 1576 01:26:21,520 --> 01:26:25,040 Speaker 1: thing we've said about Dig's I think going to be 1577 01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:28,840 Speaker 1: healthy being the same category. I think he's finally going 1578 01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:31,240 Speaker 1: to play this week though he's been practicing. He played 1579 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:33,519 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, played twenty two snaps two weeks ago. 1580 01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:37,719 Speaker 1: So I'm pretty nervous about the injury and the fact 1581 01:26:37,760 --> 01:26:40,120 Speaker 1: that they could get really, really up in this game 1582 01:26:40,160 --> 01:26:42,160 Speaker 1: and just put Sneat on the bench too. So I'm 1583 01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:46,280 Speaker 1: nervous about Sneet as well. We we highly chance any follower. 1584 01:26:46,400 --> 01:26:48,559 Speaker 1: I like Benny followers better than it is a tough 1585 01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:56,760 Speaker 1: Chicago defense. D your next hire or Car Breeze or 1586 01:26:56,960 --> 01:27:01,000 Speaker 1: car I got Breeze. He's at home, he's against Chicago. 1587 01:27:01,200 --> 01:27:03,960 Speaker 1: I'm not thinking about that too much. All right, Peter, 1588 01:27:04,320 --> 01:27:08,680 Speaker 1: you're on the fan, Hey, guys, Tyrod Taylor later in 1589 01:27:08,680 --> 01:27:12,280 Speaker 1: the quarterback mich Te Tyrod Taylor against arguably the worst 1590 01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:15,120 Speaker 1: past defense in the NFL will be the selection, will 1591 01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:17,960 Speaker 1: make their case. Keenum for whatever he's you know, he's 1592 01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:20,840 Speaker 1: winning games of vikings, but zero or one touchdown passing 1593 01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 1: every game but one. Chris, you're next. I got a 1594 01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:29,160 Speaker 1: three quarterback? My god, Dak Cracot wrote the Wilkin or 1595 01:27:29,320 --> 01:27:34,400 Speaker 1: one quarterback but one we started. I'm starting Dak Prescott's uh, 1596 01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:37,400 Speaker 1: he's just the most consistent. He snuck a third guy 1597 01:27:37,520 --> 01:27:41,120 Speaker 1: in there. Yeah, that's why I went like that, Bill 1598 01:27:41,240 --> 01:27:47,320 Speaker 1: You're next. Yeah, non PPR, crab Tree or Hogan. I'm 1599 01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:54,400 Speaker 1: gonna go Crabtree, Casey you're next, deeven front or games 1600 01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:58,680 Speaker 1: one of PPR. I'd go James White, juicy matchup. We'll 1601 01:27:58,720 --> 01:28:04,599 Speaker 1: go for the volume play Aco. Hey there, PPR Hogan 1602 01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:11,439 Speaker 1: or Funchs Hogan. Didn't we do a Hogan that one? 1603 01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:13,840 Speaker 1: I think it was the first one we book ended 1604 01:28:13,880 --> 01:28:16,560 Speaker 1: it with a Hogan Funcius. Our final call of the 1605 01:28:16,680 --> 01:28:20,559 Speaker 1: day is Jason, Hello, Hey, I got a non PPR 1606 01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:26,080 Speaker 1: black Sam Abdullah or Mohammed definitely a Mirabdulah in my mind, 1607 01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:28,320 Speaker 1: like that a lot better. This is the one. This 1608 01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:30,960 Speaker 1: is the only matchup I felt pretty good about Ada 1609 01:28:31,000 --> 01:28:34,000 Speaker 1: Abdullah in all the year. Yeah, and actually he's running great. 1610 01:28:34,400 --> 01:28:36,479 Speaker 1: You know you see him runs actually running the ball 1611 01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:39,080 Speaker 1: really really well. The problem is when they want to throw. 1612 01:28:39,160 --> 01:28:40,759 Speaker 1: They don't throw to him. They throw it a theoretic 1613 01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:42,599 Speaker 1: when they have a touch on opportunity, they don't give 1614 01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:47,479 Speaker 1: him the ball inside five. So that's your continual problem. 1615 01:28:47,680 --> 01:28:51,439 Speaker 1: The theoretically throw it to a Meerbdulan. I like that. 1616 01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:55,519 Speaker 1: I like that.
