Mike, we are almost a 14 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 3: quarter of the way in to the twenty twenty four 15 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 3: NFL s. 16 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. 17 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 4: It's the tale of two games, one that you watched, 18 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,639 Speaker 4: the other that maybe you got an update every once 19 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 4: in a while on your phone. Even in the split 20 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 4: screen experience, I think you probably would have been finding 21 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 4: a rerun of your favorite sitcom over what the Titans 22 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 4: and Dolphins were offering you this evening. But yeah, I 23 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 4: mean we watched your Seahawks, Dan and the Lions. We 24 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 4: got points all over. I mean that was your call 25 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 4: that you'd see a lot of points there. I'll take 26 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 4: the l on Jared Goff. I really thought we'd see 27 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 4: some defense, but also wasn't expecting half your defense to 28 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 4: be in street clothes when we recorded the last podcast, 29 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 4: like wishing, wanting, hoping that guys would make it for 30 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 4: game day did not happen. So we get the points 31 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 4: we did there. But for the Titans Dolphins, that's where 32 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 4: you get into a lot of hand ringing and discussions 33 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 4: of man. Look Smith and I doing the show on 34 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio as we do each night. He looked 35 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 4: at me and he just said, hey, is two of 36 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 4: the real MVP and you have to go. Well, you 37 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 4: see how this offense got bogged down. Clearly, Mike McDaniel 38 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 4: hasn't been able to pivot to find any of his 39 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 4: play time and opportunity. Hell, after the game, Tyreek Hill 40 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 4: left without seeing reporters four catches twenty three. 41 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 5: Yards beating outside the stadium that we don't know yet. 42 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 4: He might have been shuttled away. But you know, a 43 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 4: non factor once again. And the other part is because well, 44 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 4: you can do it with Tyler Huntley under center. You're 45 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 4: sucking up into the box saying, all right, beat us 46 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 4: one on one and h and an absolute disastrous showing 47 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 4: with just twenty nine total yards on thirteen touches. 48 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 3: I'll say this, I don't I know what Jason was 49 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 3: getting at, but it sounds like the Dolphins were lighting 50 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 3: things up when he was playing. 51 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 5: I mean, I know. 52 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 3: They're atrocious right now, but they are atrocious right now 53 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 3: because they didn't plan for two to get knocked out. 54 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 4: Well, and that's the larger thing, Dan is. You know, 55 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 4: we've talked about it a lot for years about you know, 56 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 4: how much the backup quarterback really matters, far more than 57 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 4: it ever really has because you build these offenses, and 58 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 4: for Tua it's been about timing and for all the shortcomings, 59 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 4: and look, you know, Smith obviously trying to just make 60 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 4: the point of you know, you can't just put the 61 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 4: next guy in because he fits the suit, the old 62 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 4: Johnny Bravo Brady Bunch reference timely, because we bridge the 63 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 4: gap all those sixty years in all, but just the 64 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 4: idea that all right, McDaniel's a genius. You've got hill 65 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 4: Waddle and these speedy running backs that can make plays. 66 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 4: So whoever steps in is gonna be good. That's not true. 67 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 4: That's not true. And yes they didn't exactly light it 68 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 4: up before Tua got hurt either, and we all remember 69 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 4: how he found himself on the on the ir But yeah, 70 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 4: it's right now, just a lot of hand ringing. I mean, 71 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 4: they're averaging eleven point two five points per game through 72 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 4: four weeks of the campaign. 73 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 3: And for some reason, I think we reference this game 74 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: a lot just because of how it turned with the 75 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 3: Jacksonville Dolphins game in Week one, but when you had 76 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 3: Etn have that fumble and the game just completely changed 77 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 3: on the two of the Tyreek eighty yard touchdown play. 78 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 5: But again, that was you know, that. 79 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 3: Was a half of bad football by the Dolphins, you know, 80 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 3: leading into that. And the part that I just can't 81 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 3: get over with Miami is Skyler Thompson started the playoff 82 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 3: game not last year, it was the year before, So 83 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 3: they've kept him around doing these things for two years. 84 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: They knew him full well. That playoff game that he 85 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 3: played in against Buffalo, he was eighteen of forty five 86 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 3: with a touchdown on two interceptions. And you can say 87 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,559 Speaker 3: to yourself, Well, that was a guy being pressed into 88 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 3: action and wasn't necessary prepared for what they had. Okay, 89 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 3: that's completely completely fine if that's your take. 90 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 5: But at the. 91 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 3: Whole point over the last what year plus, did you 92 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 3: really sit back and look at your quarterback room and 93 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 3: think like this was okay, right, that was So that's 94 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: my issue with it. And then Monday night ends up 95 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 3: being so bad because the week prior, Skyler Thompson was 96 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 3: knocked out, so you had to go and get another 97 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 3: quarterback because you didn't trust him Boyle, and you had 98 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 3: to get him off the Ravens practice squad. So that's 99 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 3: that's just po're planning all around to be set up 100 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 3: for that. And I feel bad for the Devout h owners. 101 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 3: I feel bad for the Tyreek Kill Jayalen Waddle owners 102 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 3: because it's just pure negligence on the Dolphins, considering how 103 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 3: fragile too has been something that we've talked about a 104 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 3: bunch here and I want your flag. 105 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 4: Well, and that's the biggest thing, right. It's one thing 106 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 4: to say, hey, we need a backup. Every team needs 107 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 4: a backup, a functional guy. Two was a you know, 108 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 4: whatever extra coefficient you want to add to it based 109 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 4: on his history. And yes, he got through unscathed the 110 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 4: last year, or at least that's what we're led to believe, right, 111 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 4: I mean, you have no idea, but he but he 112 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 4: answered the bell every Sunday, Monday, Thursday and the off 113 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 4: you know Wednesday, show up and post for pictures. 114 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:21,239 Speaker 2: He was there. 115 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 4: And you know, for those that want to say that 116 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 4: he's done, well, who's to say he doesn't have another 117 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 4: year like that? 118 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 2: Is it likely? 119 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: No? 120 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 4: But as an organization, especially when you're so dependent on 121 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 4: those on those wide receivers to make big plays, and 122 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 4: we know the temperament of wide receivers when the balls 123 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 4: not getting to them, that you were derelict in your 124 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 4: duties building this roster and making the assumption that he 125 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 4: was going to get through another seventeen games unscathed without 126 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 4: having to press someone into action that can orchestrate the offense. 127 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 4: Maybe not as well as him, but at least to 128 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 4: where the functionality he doesn't have to be ripped up 129 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 4: and you have to draw up a new playbook. Yeah, 130 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 4: I mean, it's just an absolute abhorrence to what you 131 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 4: were were trying to do and the level of genius 132 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 4: that had been anointed Mike McDaniel. 133 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 3: I think you're gonna really have to. I think you're 134 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 3: gonna have to have to consider benching Tyreek Hill if 135 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 3: you've got other options available. 136 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know how creative you can get with 137 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 4: him in the as a runner, right, because you got 138 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 4: a little bit of that. Okay, So he gets to 139 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 4: forty one total yards on the night before, catches twenty 140 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 4: three yards. One of those was for seventeen yards. 141 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 5: Dan, Yeah, I. 142 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 2: Mean here's the stats. 143 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 4: You got nineteen three point six four and then what 144 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 4: did you have four for twenty What do you got 145 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 4: about a seven point eight point game tonight or Thursday 146 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 4: night as we're recording the podcast. I mean, just an 147 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 4: absolute disaster. 148 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 3: Here's the thing that you you fret when you're playing 149 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 3: Tyreek Hill? Is you fret one hundred and fifty yards 150 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 3: three touchdowns? 151 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 5: You know? 152 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 3: You know one of them's an eighty five yard touchdown, 153 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 3: just racks up fifteen points whatever, just like that. 154 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 5: That's not going to happen. 155 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 3: So even if his numbers get better, you're not going 156 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 3: to miss out on that game because that game doesn't 157 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 3: exist anymore. So if you want to be cautious and 158 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 3: not play him. I'm totally fine with it because I 159 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 3: would need to see that one hundred yard game with 160 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 3: a touchdown before I would even feel comfortable to play 161 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 3: Tyreek Hill. And the real reason on why you would 162 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 3: be afraid to bench him is you're going to lose 163 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 3: out on a monster game like Kenneth Walker the third. 164 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 3: You know this injury that he came back from. I'm 165 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 3: sure there was a bunch of people. I think Yahoo 166 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 3: said half their leagues people had benched Shenneth Walker the third, Well, 167 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 3: you're kicking yourself. 168 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 5: Guess what. 169 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 3: You're not gonna have to kick yourself because Tyreek Hill 170 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 3: is not going to provide that type of game for you. 171 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 4: And if he does, then you know, some fantasy gods 172 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 4: decided just dictate that kind of performance. Because I don't 173 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 4: know how you could have watched this. Again, I watched it, 174 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 4: so the rest of you out there didn't have to. 175 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 4: But if you saw it, I mean, it was awful. 176 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 4: And then his effort or lack thereof on the lateral 177 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 4: that ends up being a turnover was was again, I 178 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 4: mean just just shameful. 179 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 2: And then he left without speaking to reporters. 180 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 3: What about the Titans side of things because the Will 181 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 3: Levis era, I don't know if it's over yet, but 182 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 3: it hasn't gotten off to a great start in the 183 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 3: Brian Callahan era. And then Mason Rudolph comes in and 184 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 3: just holds the fourth down kind of like he did 185 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 3: in Pittsburgh, and the Titans leave Miami with a win. 186 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 5: Boom for. 187 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 3: Tony Pollard and Tajy Spears, but wide receiver wise, how 188 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 3: do you look at the Titans now with what's going 189 00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 3: on with Levis and Mason Rudolph. 190 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 4: I don't think you could play anybody at this point, right, 191 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 4: Hopkins hits four targets on the game, two catches thirty 192 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 4: one yards, Boyd two for thirty thirty one with a 193 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 4: long of twenty seven. I think Tony Pollard's your only 194 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 4: playable option. And folks cheered him because he scores late 195 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 4: to take the game to the total which was thirty 196 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 4: six and a half, as well as the anytime touchdown 197 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 4: prop that gets him in. But I mean that's where 198 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 4: right oh, when Will Lews did throw the interception, So 199 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 4: if you hadn't any you know, the anytime interception for them, 200 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 4: he at least gave you that for your parlay cards. 201 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 4: Before he left. But yeah, I mean, Mason, Rudolph's not 202 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 4: gonna light up scoreboards. They're going to try to go 203 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 4: to that Pittsburgh model, and the defense is pretty solid. 204 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 4: I mean, obviously going up against this iteration of the 205 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 4: Dolphins isn't the litmus test, but we've seen it through 206 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 4: the first four weeks. They've bad some stretches where the 207 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 4: defense has been pretty good, only to have Levis's mind 208 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 4: numbingly bad single plays because he came in completing sixty 209 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 4: nine percent of his passes on the year. There have 210 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 4: been some good things from Will Levis at times, except for, 211 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 4: you know, the one thing that. 212 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 2: Costs them games. 213 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 4: So Rudolph he won't make those mistakes, but he's not 214 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 4: gonna push the ball to give you any glory touches either. 215 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 4: So it's Tony Pollard and the fact that they got 216 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: spears up to fifteen touches or fifteen carries, I should 217 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 4: say two receptions out of the backfield that maybe maybe 218 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 4: you can get a little more there to where he 219 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 4: becomes a flexworthy play. While Pollard's firmly established as. 220 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: A number two. 221 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 6: Are you benching Calvin Ridley? 222 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I'm done with all of them. It's I 223 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 4: think what Dan was just saying with Tyreek Hill. I mean, 224 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 4: let's take it a bigger factor, right, Tyreek Hill greater 225 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 4: than I mean, Galvinrdley's a good receiver. Tyreek Hill is 226 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 4: a better receiver and they can't break him. I don't 227 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 4: know that Mason Rudolph or Will Levis is suddenly gonna 228 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 4: be able to unquirk things to get that out of target. 229 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 5: Yeah. Ian Roddy's our executive producer. 230 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 3: And I'm glad that that you had mentioned Calvin Ridley 231 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 3: because I feel the similar way, not with it, not 232 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,079 Speaker 3: with how Tyreek is, but with the Titans. Somebody may 233 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 3: have a one hundred yard games in a touchdown, but 234 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 3: I'm not. I'm not playing roulette to find out who 235 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 3: that's gonna be on what week? 236 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, Ridley coming in like before the h the points 237 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 4: got added. I'm looking at the Fantasy Pro site right 238 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 4: where they give you the giant grid of points per game. 239 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 4: Uh and just looking from a from a PPR standpoint, 240 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 4: when you look at Ridley, You're you're coming coming away 241 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 4: with you know, the just two awful games and one 242 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 4: monster game before this one? 243 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 5: Right? 244 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 2: Eight points? All right? 245 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,719 Speaker 4: Eight points is fine, but you're expecting more twenty four 246 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 4: point seven, one point nine and then the effort tonight 247 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 4: where you get one point five points. Oh I'm sorry, no, no, no, 248 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 4: you also got a ten yard rushing attempt, so two 249 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 4: point five points, but the point all the same. And 250 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 4: as you're saying, Dan, I mean you're gonna have games 251 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 4: where Hopkins becomes that guy and who knows. I mean, 252 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 4: offense still trying to find its way, Mason Rudolph being 253 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 4: the backup maybe one of those guys that was one 254 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 4: of his favorites running with the twos this offseason finds 255 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 4: a little bit of daylight. But until we get that 256 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 4: established for two or three weeks, awful hard to justify 257 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 4: putting someone in. 258 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, if you've if you've got no one else obviously dead, 259 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: Ne're going to have to play them. But I would 260 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 3: I would rather just take second and third options from 261 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 3: maybe other teams that are more viable than to have 262 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 3: to play DeAndre Hopkins or Calvin Ridley. 263 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 5: That's just that's something that I don't want to deal with. 264 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 3: Plus it would also mean that I don't have to 265 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 3: watch any Titans games, which would be a much bigger 266 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 3: boom than anything, Mike, because they could be a tough 267 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 3: watch at times. And I'll say this, and I'm and 268 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 3: I'm joking and saying that, but I'm not joking, And 269 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 3: I think everybody knows that. It makes you wonder what 270 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 3: their goals as an organization really are this year because 271 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 3: Will Levis was only a second round pick last year. 272 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 3: And Will Levis is not this coaching regimes quarterback. It 273 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 3: is the GM's pick, but again it's only a second 274 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 3: round pick. So to sit there and think that you're 275 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 3: going to be invested in that you have to squeeze 276 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 3: more juice out of Will Levis, I don't think is 277 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 3: necessarily true. 278 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 4: No, especially if it's going to cause your first year 279 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,479 Speaker 4: head coach to have an aneurysm. 280 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I only say that. 281 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't mean to be rude to anybody 282 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 4: from a physical standpoint, but it's just you watched him 283 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 4: the first three weeks. I mean, how many times was 284 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 4: there a shot on the sideline of my man? Does 285 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 4: not look well after the Will Levis decision, and he's 286 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 4: certainly venting. We had to beleep him out quite a bit. 287 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 4: It's like the Applebe's commercial with Dan Campbell where you 288 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 4: got to hold up the menu. Call I think we 289 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 4: have to do that just superficially for Callahan where we 290 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 4: put that graphic in anytime you see him on camera 291 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 4: because he's cursing out his quarterback. It's not good for 292 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 4: business and that and that is to say, you know, 293 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 4: they still score. They scored thirty one points today, yet 294 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 4: there's no there's no confidence of how that's going to 295 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 4: come across from the passing game. Yeah right, it's the 296 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 4: run game and then hope that maybe we find some continuity. 297 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 4: But yeah, there's better offenses with you know, more established 298 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 4: WR twos than trying to pick one out of here. 299 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 3: They've got a buy in week five as the Boys begin, 300 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 3: then the matchup with the Colts, but after that you're 301 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 3: looking at Bills, Lions, Patriots, Chargers, Vikings, and then the 302 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 3: Texans after that. So even even the break of New England, 303 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 3: like New England's defense is still gonna get after you 304 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 3: a bit. And yeah, that's just that's that's why then 305 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 3: I wonder at some point like this this Tennessee just 306 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 3: like all right, we'll just play for a top five 307 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 3: pick so we can get our quarterback in the future. 308 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 3: At some point I think that's going to be the case. 309 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 3: You may wondering why we haven't talked a ton about 310 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 3: Lions and Seahawks. I think the reason is, Mike is 311 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 3: you just want to play everybody on both those teams. 312 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 3: If you've got guys, you're basically going to play them. 313 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 3: Like from what we saw on Monday night, there's no 314 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 3: reason for us to analyze anything. 315 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 5: The only thing that I'm really analyzing is. 316 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 3: As a Seahawks fan, seeing what Gino Smith did Monday night, 317 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 3: and he's done this before, and seeing the struggles that 318 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 3: some of the you know, rookie quarterbacks are having, specifically 319 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 3: Bo Nicks in Denver, even though they're winning football games, 320 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 3: he's thrown for sixty yards, Like, give me that. I 321 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 3: don't want the Seahawks to have that problem of trying 322 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 3: to get a rookie quarterback and someone a custom I 323 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 3: am now all in on the Geno Smith train, sticking 324 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 3: around for as long as he wants or he. 325 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 5: Starts to fall off. 326 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 3: But I don't see any reason why anybody would not 327 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 3: play a Seahawk or not play a Lion in their 328 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 3: fantasy line. 329 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 4: Now, I mean, you still have the opportunity even as 330 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 4: Zach Charboney with Walker the third coming back, I'll had 331 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 4: five catches for thirty nine yards. Is it a monster game? 332 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 5: No? 333 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 4: Add the fifteen yards rushing, but overall, I mean it's 334 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 4: still at ten point night potentially from a flex right, 335 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 4: So we're looking for touches in opportunity Hopkins, No, that's it, 336 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 4: or Calvin Ridley or just gone down. But it's just 337 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 4: to the point of passing games have been so suspect 338 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 4: and it's a much larger thing that we've been talking 339 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 4: about the sample size through the first couple of weeks. 340 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 2: But I agree with your assessment of Gino. 341 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 4: It's as much as you know, we can go back 342 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 4: in his history and say what and how, and usually 343 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 4: when the Jets get involved, we laugh a bit and 344 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 4: we move on. But it's the idea of all right, 345 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 4: I've got a stable quarterback that I know what I'm 346 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 4: going to get week to week, and I can build 347 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 4: around that versus trying to fit a guy in, maybe 348 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 4: on a terrible team, and maybe we'll come around to it. 349 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 5: Right. 350 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 4: I mean the comments that Kevin O'Connell had the other day, 351 00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 4: and part of it is self serving because he's got 352 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 4: a Darnold there again, ex Jet now good. 353 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 2: But the idea that. 354 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 4: Organizations fail young quarterbacks before the young quarterbacks failed the organizations. 355 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 4: I thought it was an interesting comment and it's a 356 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 4: you know, an extension of some of the conversations you 357 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 4: and I certainly have had on this podcast and shows 358 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 4: we've done together Dan for years of all right, we 359 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 4: draft a guy, we have to play him. Well, is 360 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 4: he ready? Is the team ready? Like, look at what 361 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 4: New England's doing right Drake may Man. Look Jacoby Brissett 362 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 4: right now is being used as a human shield. 363 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 2: And then they brought Drake. 364 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 4: May in in that game in the final minutes and 365 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 4: you got watched him get ragged dolled multiple times, Like 366 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 4: why why subjective to that at this point when your team's. 367 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,719 Speaker 2: Not ready yet? We feel like we need the well, 368 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 2: the clock's running, gotta play him. 369 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 3: It's it's if Drake may sat the whole year, nothing's 370 00:18:59,000 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 3: gonna change. 371 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 5: With the way in my mind, right, So. 372 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 2: Right, if you believe he's your guy, this is not 373 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 2: the team and the offensive line to try to throw 374 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 2: him out to prove something like what's to be gained? 375 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 3: And we're already and where you know, Drod Mayo is 376 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 3: already being asked about it, like when is Drake may time? 377 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 5: You know, when is this thing going to happen? 378 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just I don't understand. It's like and and 379 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 4: I feel sorry for Jacoby Prissett. He's a guy I've 380 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 4: liked for a long time. That's why you brought him 381 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 4: in here. 382 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 5: Yeah. 383 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 4: Right, he is the bridge guy. He's the guy that's 384 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 4: got to try to impart some knowledge on the on 385 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 4: the kid, as it were. But he's also the guy 386 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 4: that's got to take the beating while this team isn't 387 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 4: ready to compete. 388 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 5: Yep. 389 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 4: Absolutely, And so I think more teams would. It would 390 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 4: behoove them to take that kind of approach. And for 391 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 4: you in Seattle, look, you may not rank Geno any 392 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 4: better than fifteenth. You know, if you're doing the one 393 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 4: through thirty two, I don't know where he'd rank. I've 394 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 4: never sat and done that exercise. But the reality is, 395 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 4: I know week to week the professional that he is, 396 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 4: and that he's going to keep getting up and he's 397 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 4: going to put me into good spots. 398 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so. 399 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 4: Many of these young quarterbacks. I mean the bow Knicks 400 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 4: thing yesterday Sunday against the Jets was just I mean, 401 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 4: that was bad. Aaron Rodgers wasn't much better, mind you, sure, 402 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 4: But but for bow Nicks right right now, I mean 403 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 4: there's not a lot of positives. Yeah, that that are 404 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 4: coming off the page. 405 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 3: He was seven to fifteen at one point for negative 406 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,479 Speaker 3: seven yards. That was that was a true stat They 407 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 3: had lost seven yards passing. And it's not college where 408 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 3: you get sacked and you count against your passing yards. 409 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 5: This was Yeah, this was not good. It was bad. 410 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure that was his line at halftime. 411 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 5: Dan, was that what it was? Yeah? 412 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 2: Seven yards? 413 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was not good in Sex Sex Conner's rushing 414 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 3: yards in college, I don't know. 415 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 2: In college they do, but not in the NFL. 416 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I knew they didn't in the NFL. 417 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 3: But I said passing yards and then I'm like, wait 418 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 3: a seconds rushing yards that I needed to correct myself. 419 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 3: But still point being, yeah, it was not good. It 420 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 3: was not good for of Bonnicks and Gino Smith gets 421 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 3: the ball to his players Jackson Smith and jigbu dk 422 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,479 Speaker 3: Metcalf twelve targets Tyler Lockett at nine. 423 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 5: That's it. 424 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 3: You take me from behind, but you get the ball 425 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 3: to the guys that need to get the football. 426 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 4: But it's also the you'll take what a defense gives 427 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 4: you as opposed to pressing. Yeah, right, that's the other 428 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 4: thing a veteran quarterback gets you. Now you have the 429 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 4: other side, which is you know, the minshees of the 430 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 4: world where they don't have a conscience. I got to 431 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 4: make a play and I'll throw it in harm's way, 432 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 4: which I appreciate at times. But there's also recognizing when 433 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 4: you have the trio of receivers like you do. They're 434 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 4: in Seattle. Not to mention what he hit like ten 435 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 4: or eleven different guys in this game with at least 436 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 4: one percent, and they had thirty eight first downs, right, 437 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 4: that was the stat thirty eight first out. I mean, 438 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 4: you're moving the ball right and again I think his 439 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 4: pass gets held against him. Now getting punched in the 440 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 4: face with all the on the plane, I mean, that's 441 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 4: a story that lives forever. But he's a guy that's 442 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 4: been a good professional and for the Seahawks, a hell 443 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 4: of a find. 444 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's I think that's distant memory too. 445 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 3: Maybe it sticks in your mind, but I think more 446 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 3: people now remember of they tried to write me off 447 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 3: but I didn't write back, which still makes a good line, 448 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 3: makes no sense whatsoever, but yeah, it worked for him 449 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 3: that night, and it's been working for him the last 450 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 3: couple of years. He's Mike carbon I'm Dan By. Our 451 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 3: executive producer is Ian Roddy. We went super long there, 452 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: so we'll try to trim it up. But there's a 453 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 3: bunch of stuff from week four that we got to 454 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 3: get to. Jane Daniels amazing, where shee Rice's injury, how 455 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 3: that's gonna play out justin fields. Sure looks like he's 456 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 3: gonna be the Steelers starter for a long time. And 457 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 3: did we look into our crystal ball with the Indianapolis Colts. 458 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 5: Don't blame us. He's Mike. I'm Dan. 459 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 3: This is I want your flex, it is I want 460 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 3: your flex hit Mike up I Swallen Dome. Find me 461 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 3: at Dan Buyer on Fox. Our executive producer is Ian Roddy. 462 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:58,199 Speaker 3: Where you can find him at Ian Roddy Underscore on X. 463 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 3: I didn't I didn't predict this, Mike, but we had 464 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 3: talked about it because I think it was a legitimate storyline. 465 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 5: Anthony Richardson's health with. 466 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 3: The Indianapolis Colts and we said, hey, this may be 467 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 3: the time to go out and get Michael Pittman Junior, 468 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 3: because at some point you think something's probably gonna happen 469 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 3: to him. Well that was this past Sunday. You'll win 470 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 3: against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Joe Flacco comes in. Now 471 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 3: the Colts end up throwing the football all around. We 472 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 3: think Anthony Richardson is going to be fine. But now, 473 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 3: how do we look at the Indianapolis Colts with their 474 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 3: quarterbacking position a little bit in flux because of the 475 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 3: Richardson injury. 476 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, you hate to be that guy, but 477 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 4: you look it down, you look at Pittman and you 478 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 4: raise an eyebrow thinking, all right, maybe there's some more 479 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 4: play to be had here. Look, I'll take the l on. 480 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 4: Pittman took the under on his yardage. After three weeks 481 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 4: of inactivity, gets a couple of big hitters early finishes 482 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 4: six for one thirteen Josh downs missed the early part 483 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 4: of the season. He's back eight for eighty two and 484 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 4: a touchdown. We talked about him an awful lot last year, 485 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 4: Dan waiting for him to break through in an opportunity, 486 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 4: but not only did they lose Richardson in this game, 487 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 4: and it looks like he's avoided serious injury. But now 488 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 4: you got a hip added to the other injuries that 489 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 4: we've seen in the past. 490 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 2: It's one of those. 491 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 4: Once he finished like half the games that he started 492 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 4: in the NFL made Joe Flacco is going to see 493 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 4: time sixteen to twenty six, one hundred and sixty eight 494 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 4: and two. Took a couple sacks, and you had that 495 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 4: terrible call against Fitzpatrick. But you know, referees or they're 496 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 4: doing the best they can. Dan, but Joe Flacco, you 497 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 4: know what you're gonna get. We were talking about Geno 498 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 4: with veterans. I mean, Joe Flacco was the guy if 499 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 4: I had any extra ability to move money around for 500 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 4: a team like Miami or one of these where I 501 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 4: know my quarterback like they did here in Indianapolis, where 502 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 4: my quarterback might be subject to an injury maybe a 503 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 4: little easier than others. Yeah, Flacco's the guy would have 504 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 4: thrown money at consummate pro comes in. 505 00:24:58,640 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 2: Is he still elite? 506 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 4: I don't know, but he looked pretty damn good against 507 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 4: a good Pittsburgh defense for one day. Now, that Jonathan 508 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 4: Taylor question comes up as well, yeah, high ankle again, 509 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 4: looks like he avoided something that's going to sideline him forever. 510 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 4: But suddenly Trey Sermon pops up on the waiver wire 511 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 4: and only five carries for eight yards against the Steelers, 512 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 4: but becomes a viable option. But yeah, Anthony Richardson was 513 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 4: a guy we were already, you know, hesitant to say 514 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 4: indoors as a lineup play based on his forty nine 515 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 4: percent completion rate, even with the big plays and the 516 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 4: big running plays, I think I had to hold my 517 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,719 Speaker 4: breath a little too much to try to get him 518 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 4: to the finish line at the Fantasy Fantasy Stables there. 519 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 5: You know. 520 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 3: I know Mike wanted to discredit some of his information 521 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 3: that he gave out on Friday, but I'm just gonna 522 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 3: tell you this. He had Gino Smith as a hot 523 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 3: play that sures Heck seemed to work out. He had 524 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 3: Justin Fields as a ninja that sures Heck's to work out. 525 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 3: See if you're worthy big play as the ninja play, 526 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 3: Jamison Williams ninja play, I think you're being a little 527 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 3: bit too hard on yourself. Hey, DJ More even got 528 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 3: into the end zone. He did, Yes, how about that? 529 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, but the miss has hurt me more, especially when 530 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 4: it's guys that it's like, all right, I know you 531 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 4: want to start him, but he got to put the 532 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 4: cautionary tale and then they make me look foolish. 533 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 2: But that's okay. 534 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 4: But yeah, the Justin Fields on the other side of that, Dan, 535 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 4: since you brought his name up three twelve in a touchdown, 536 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 4: two on the ground, including fifty five yards ten carries, 537 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 4: I mean he's going to be your leading rusher, it 538 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 4: would appear. I mean Cordero Paratterson came in and gave 539 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 4: him a boost and then he got hurt. Harris better 540 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 4: as a receiver out of the backfield than he's been 541 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 4: as a runner. And we have no idea when Warren 542 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 4: comes back. 543 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 5: Yeah. 544 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 2: So yeah, for. 545 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 4: Justin Fields, he's become your best two way threat. And 546 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 4: for George Pickens a lot of targets and if he 547 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 4: did fumble the ball in one of the odder looking 548 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 4: plays I've ever seen, you know who knows how that 549 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 4: game actually ends, and maybe you get an extra scoring 550 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 4: strike out of Fields. 551 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 3: I find this matchup now against Dallas because you're not 552 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 3: gonna have Parsons, You're not gonna have the Marcus Lawrence right, 553 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 3: And so now now it opens up even more in 554 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 3: what is the game of the week, the game that 555 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 3: everybody's watching and gonna have their eyes on Cowboys and Steelers. 556 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 5: And now it gives you this opportunity. 557 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 3: And it's also going to be in comparison to the 558 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 3: sixty million dollar man Dak Prescott. So justin fields, it 559 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 3: really has a way to really make a name for himself. 560 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 3: I will say that from the fantasy perspective, he was 561 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 3: a lot more valuable, Like there were there were points 562 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 3: in that game against the Colts that I felt that 563 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 3: maybe they could have maybe they missed Russell Wilson or 564 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 3: what he could have done in those situations. But it's 565 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 3: just really difficult to argue when you put up the 566 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 3: stat line like he did, you know, three hundred and 567 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 3: fourteen yards and the touchdowns on the ground, to really 568 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 3: think that that's gonna change anything and sufficient enough, I 569 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 3: would think in Mike Tomlin's eyes, considering that you just 570 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 3: expected a little bit more from your defense against Indy. 571 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 2: Well, and that's it. 572 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 4: And there's plenty of ISO plays of the bear hugs 573 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 4: put on TJ. 574 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 2: Watt. 575 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, which is funny because we're throwing flags all over 576 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 4: the place, and then you can see those egregious holds 577 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 4: that they get away with, not just for wat but 578 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 4: for you know, a number of the big behemoths getting 579 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 4: up front, you know, protect the pass or whatever, I 580 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 4: guess by any means necessary. But yeah, the fields turnover 581 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 4: the fumble when he could have just dived back on 582 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 4: the ball and instead trying to make a play and 583 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 4: lost it. Like that's the kind of thing that you know, 584 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 4: Mike Tomlin, I think that's that's enough to put a 585 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 4: bunch of demerits to take away from everything else you did. 586 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 4: That was great because that play was just silly. That 587 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 4: play was dead. Get on the ball and move on. 588 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 4: But overall, you know, acquitted himself pretty well. And you know, 589 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 4: up before Caleb Williams and the Bears got the win 590 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 4: against the Rams, you know, running the ball north south 591 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 4: is a good thing. 592 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 2: Good job, DeAndre Swift. 593 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 4: Glad you got all my Shawshank redemption style letters about 594 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 4: that one. Rashawn Johnson did find the end zone, so 595 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 4: I didn't look like a complete idiot. 596 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 5: No, But. 597 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 4: Yes, but that that all to say that, you know, 598 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 4: there were people already doing the handwringing going. We could 599 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 4: have had fields, We should have had fields, and we 600 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 4: could have done this this this like shut up, it's 601 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 4: week four. 602 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 5: It'll take time. It's yeah, it will. 603 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 3: But again, I think that the Bears are going to 604 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 3: clean house after the season, and then hopefully Ryan Poles 605 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 3: will end up hiring someone that will really be able 606 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 3: to take this group of players who I think are 607 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 3: really good sands maybe the offensive line, Mike, and lift 608 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 3: them to higher heights. From my lips to God, God's ears. 609 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 2: Were you trying to throw up a crew he'd line 610 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 2: while you. 611 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 3: Were at aude Jade and Daniels twenty six thirty two 612 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 3: hundred and thirty three yards a touchdown. Another Washington Commander's 613 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 3: victory forty seven yards on the ground, a touchdown run 614 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 3: The Commanders keep rolling, considering how bad the quarterback play 615 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 3: had been for the first three weeks, and now what 616 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 3: Daniels has been able to do, My goodness, he makes 617 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 3: makes a lot of people who took him in their 618 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 3: fantasy leagues look very very good, considering maybe even some 619 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 3: of those top ten guys haven't lived up to their 620 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 3: top ten rankings. And hear jadon Daniels doing it week 621 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 3: in and week out, whether it be with his legs. 622 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 5: Or with his arm. 623 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 4: Got to say, at this point, Dan, he becomes I mean, 624 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 4: no worse, he's gonna be on the metal stand. I 625 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 4: think each week in terms of fantasy quarterbacks until proven otherwise, 626 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 4: I mean, we always do the Oh, they'll get tape 627 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 4: on them. Well, twenty eight points, what was it? Thirteen 628 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 4: point game, So a little bit of a slow down there, 629 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 4: but they efficiency there twenty eight points. And then in 630 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 4: twenty five the top four quarterbacks. Actually we'll do five 631 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 4: because we'll bring him in, Jayden Daniels, Lamar Jackson, Baker Mayfield, 632 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 4: Sam Darnold and Josh Allen Wow sixth justin fields. So 633 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 4: you know, when you look at the guys that would 634 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 4: have been drafted early, and they're not too far off 635 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 4: the pace when you look at Stroud and Burrow. But 636 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 4: I mean, with everything going on in Kansas City, are 637 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 4: you trusting Patrick Mahomes right now? 638 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 2: No? 639 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 5: No? 640 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 2: Right? 641 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 4: Rashid Rice probably done for the year, Worthy and Dravis 642 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 4: Kelcey and what else? What other band aid? What other 643 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 4: trade can you find? Brock Perty's number twelve, Joe Burrow 644 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 4: number eleven. 645 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 5: C J. 646 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 4: Stroud had himself a day. The Jacksonville defense looked good 647 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 4: until they didn't. And Nico Collins, you know, Nico Collins 648 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 4: is the number one receiver in fantasy football right now. Yeah, 649 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 4: monster game in Week four. But you know that is 650 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 4: to say a lot of the guys we were banking 651 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 4: on big opportunities from I mean, if you'd be drafted 652 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 4: Jayden Daniels, odds are he wasn't your starter. So now 653 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 4: it becomes a you might be drafted, you might have 654 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 4: a position to strength to go four to five, the 655 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 4: trade market wide receiver or running back to somebody desperate 656 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 4: after Week four. 657 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 3: The funny thing with Daniels, and I'm going to use 658 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 3: the Falcons as an example, is who would you trust 659 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 3: the veteran quarterback and the first year coordinator or do 660 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 3: you trust the rookie quarterback and the coordinator who is 661 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 3: the former head coach? And I'm going with the rookie 662 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 3: quarterback and the former head coach. We think that Kirk 663 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 3: Cousins is going to lift all boats in Atlanta, and 664 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 3: it hasn't necessarily been the case. Drake London's been better 665 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 3: than he was last year. But when you see what 666 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 3: Kingsbury does and what Kingsbury's offense is Mike even if 667 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 3: they're even if their defense gives up twenty eight in 668 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 3: the first half, it's going to be even better for 669 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 3: him in the second half. 670 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 5: And the only reason. 671 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 3: Why that Giant's numbers stunk so much is because they 672 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,479 Speaker 3: just couldn't put it in the end zone. But they 673 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 3: still got seven field goals out of it. So yeah, 674 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 3: I don't find many blemishes with Jayden Daniels in the 675 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 3: road that the Commanders have, even if they're playing tough games, 676 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 3: and they got blown out by the Buccaneers and the 677 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 3: first week and he still was able to put up 678 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 3: points in that game. 679 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 4: Still going to get your fantasy points distribution. Week four, 680 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 4: they played without Austin Eckler who was out, so Brian 681 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 4: Robinson owners get a little bit of a boost and 682 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 4: we'll see how long that lasts. But I mean, right now, 683 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 4: they're pulling the strings really well in Atlanta, and Kyle 684 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 4: Pitts is invisible. B Jon Robinson still seems like he's 685 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 4: in that box that Arthur Smith had him in sure, 686 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 4: So I mean you're not getting much in the way. 687 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 4: I mean, they won the game against New Orleans like 688 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 4: that was fun, just from the oddity of it, because 689 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 4: it didn't make any sense, right. We talked about how 690 00:33:55,760 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 4: bad and future Denver New York was, or the Monday 691 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 4: Night or Tennessee versus Miami, that Atlanta New Orleans game 692 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 4: made no sense for much of it, and yet here's 693 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 4: young Way coup from fifty eight to finish it off. 694 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 2: It was like, what the hell? 695 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 4: I mean you had to be on you probably would 696 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 4: just take it over on Fox Sports Radio as that 697 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 4: was going final or just about so. 698 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 3: Well, because we don't start until five Eastern. We get 699 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 3: at usually at the end of the first quarter of 700 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 3: the late games, so this one was still. 701 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 5: Not in our window. 702 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 3: Okay, but I had young Way coup on one of 703 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 3: my fantasy teams and he gave me fourteen points. 704 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 5: It was. 705 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 3: It was amazing and also cover the spread in a 706 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 3: picks poll. I don't know what the spread ended up 707 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 3: being at kickoff, but when I got it, it was 708 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 3: a point and a half for the Falcon so it 709 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 3: was doubly doubly good for me. 710 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 2: How about that? 711 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 5: Yeah? 712 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 4: But yeah, the point being with Jade Daniels, I mean, eventually, 713 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 4: I don't think it turns into an absolute pumpkin. I mean, 714 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,879 Speaker 4: and certainly there's a lot of concerns and there were 715 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 4: coming in about his frame and whatever. Seems to be 716 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 4: doing just fine through four weeks. A couple of times 717 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 4: there's hits that maybe it's a second of anxiousness after 718 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 4: he takes the hit, but it's hard to argue with 719 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 4: the results. Kingsbury's, you know, doing a great job. We 720 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 4: always wonder about coaches, you know where the ceiling is 721 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 4: as coordinator versus head man. All right, now he's certainly 722 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 4: found his stride and doing some wonderful things there in Washington. 723 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 3: Hit him up at Swollen don't find me at Dan 724 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 3: Byer on Fox and Ian Roddy, our executive producer. You 725 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 3: can find at Ian Roddy Underscore. We're gonna check our 726 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 3: report cards from last week, Ian Streaming Defense, my Survivor 727 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 3: pick points at Palooza, and of course the Oasis song, 728 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 3: plus a huge injury to Rashid rise of the Kansas 729 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 3: City Chiefs. Mike's gonna tell you how you deal with 730 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 3: that if he's on your fantasy roster. Plus give you 731 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 3: the waiver wire pickups that you need for week five, 732 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 3: and trust me, you're gonna need him because buys are starting. 733 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:01,839 Speaker 3: That's next here and I want your flex. Welcome back 734 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 3: to I want your flex, and my one week ban 735 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 3: from my Survivor pool picks may have to turn into 736 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 3: a multiple week band, Mike Carmen, because I gave you 737 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 3: the jets in week four, I'm giving you losers each week. 738 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:14,879 Speaker 5: So maybe the best bet would be just to. 739 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 3: Fade my Survivor picks and you could continue to stay 740 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 3: alive if you're in maybe second chance pools. And even 741 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,800 Speaker 3: took my advice earlier. Broncos did me in in week. 742 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 4: Four fading buyer. There's how do we come up with 743 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,279 Speaker 4: the proper name for it. It's been a rough run though. Man, 744 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 4: it's like picking games like I'm far better against the 745 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 4: number this year than I am. 746 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 2: Straight up. 747 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 3: Sure call you Dane Dan Seller, I'll tell you if 748 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 3: we started out, I'm nicely done. 749 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 5: Well, that's okay, and you can keep it in. 750 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 3: Because for my nineteen plus years at Fox Sports Radio, 751 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 3: we have tried to come up with a buyer or 752 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 3: seller segment. We never have, but last week on Doug Gottlieb, 753 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,919 Speaker 3: I did come up with an idea Buyer's remorse, where 754 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 3: I tell you all the things that I thought were 755 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 3: gonna happen and then didn't, and so I was wrong 756 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 3: on the Minnesota Vikings. I also said I believed in 757 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 3: the New York Jets or I felt that Joe Shane 758 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,959 Speaker 3: something we talked a little bit on the podcast as well. 759 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,280 Speaker 5: So I did come up with that play on wordsly. 760 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 3: So when I was knocked out in week three of 761 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 3: my Big Survivor pool, I couldn't feel bad really because 762 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 3: I would have gotten knocked out in week four if 763 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 3: I would have survived, because I was surely going to 764 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 3: pick the Jets in that pool. But oh well, I'll 765 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 3: be back to fight another day in week five. Ian 766 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,839 Speaker 3: Roddy gives you a streaming defense each week, and this 767 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 3: past week, Ian it. 768 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 6: Was the Houston Texans, which did not go very well. 769 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,839 Speaker 6: So yeah, we're gonna try to get back this week. 770 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 6: Houston Texans finished with only one singular fantasy point, so 771 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 6: as long as they didn't lose, you points were you know, 772 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 6: we're at least okay, Bud. 773 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:57,399 Speaker 5: You had to put that silver lining on it. 774 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're also probably thought they should have got the 775 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 3: safe on the final play. 776 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 5: I was no way they should have. 777 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you know, yeah, and if Trevor Lawrence could 778 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 4: hit a ball deep, he would have gotten into negative points. 779 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 4: But that's a whole other But alas he candle a fish, as. 780 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 3: They say, no, he does not put the ball where 781 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 3: it needs to be right now, that is that is 782 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 3: not good. 783 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, had one for Thomas, one for Kirk, and I 784 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:22,800 Speaker 4: stopped counting. 785 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,319 Speaker 3: I had in my oasis song was where did it 786 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 3: all go Wrong? And it was about the Cleveland Browns 787 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 3: and where did this all go wrong? And I said, 788 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 3: Amari Cooper is going to be my guy, look for 789 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 3: the breakout. 790 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:40,800 Speaker 5: And he had an eighty two. 791 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 3: Yard touchdown wiped out because of a holding penalty, so 792 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 3: he ends up with four catches for thirty five. 793 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 5: So that was not good advice. 794 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 3: But as Mike touchdown and off the top, I did 795 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 3: say points of Balooza was going to be Seahawks Lions, 796 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 3: and it sure as heck turned out to be on 797 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 3: Monday night. So at least I have that feather in 798 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 3: my cap for my report card. 799 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 4: And you had the opportunity. Look it gets wiped out 800 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 4: by penalty. You can't you can't do anything with that, right. 801 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 4: All you can hope is that he figures into the game. Script, 802 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 4: so they try to get him the ball right like 803 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 4: whenever we get into these discussions. And I've always been 804 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 4: willing to play the the WWE, inspired WCW, whichever your 805 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 4: favorite wrestling hell, the guys from the show, Heels. 806 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 2: Whatever federation you want. 807 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 4: Dystopia is that I could I take you down the water, 808 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 4: you know, to the water hole, and if I get 809 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,720 Speaker 4: you to drink, I did my job right. And because 810 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 4: in the end they got to go play sixty minutes. 811 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 4: If the logic works in your mind to where you 812 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 4: come on board with me, then then we did it. 813 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 4: And if it all goes to hell, I'll wear it. 814 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 4: I'll you could blame me if it makes you feel better. 815 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean the fact that Cooper had an 816 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 4: eighty two yard touchdown taken away. 817 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 2: All you could say was there was. 818 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,320 Speaker 4: Going to be opportunity because we saw a lot of 819 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 4: big plays wiped out by questionable flags that were thrown 820 00:39:59,080 --> 00:39:59,439 Speaker 4: this week. 821 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 3: And I'll all say this because I want to give 822 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 3: you a room for waiver wires and how Rashi Rice 823 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 3: owners are going to have to deal with his likely 824 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,879 Speaker 3: absence for a significant period of time. You can always 825 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 3: check out the Fox Sports Radio Weekends podcast, Mike obviously 826 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 3: teaming up with Bucky Brooks and Andy Furman on Sunday Mornings. 827 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 3: Sunday afternoons, it's me and Carrie Rhoades. You can always 828 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 3: get Mike obviously with Jason Smith on The Jason Smith 829 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 3: Show with Mike harmon weeknights on Fox Sports Radio. But 830 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,399 Speaker 3: I did go off for about five minutes on Kevin 831 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 3: Stefanski's timeout usage late in their game against the Raiders, 832 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 3: in a game that I don't think anybody cared about, 833 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 3: but it was so egregious. I'm not gonna waste your 834 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 3: time here, but you can go check out the podcast 835 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 3: what Carry and I did this past weekend, and you 836 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:44,919 Speaker 3: could tell me why I was. You could tell why 837 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,720 Speaker 3: I was so mad at the Browns head coach moving 838 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 3: on Rashie rice knee injury friendly fire from his own quarterback. 839 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 3: But now we expect Rashi Rice at the time of 840 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 3: this recording to miss the rest of the season. What 841 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 3: do you do with the Chiefs? What do you do 842 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 3: if you are a Rashi rights owner? In fantasy football? 843 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 4: We've already been talking the last couple of weeks where 844 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes are starting to slide down into the can 845 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 4: I trust him kind of phase? And going forward, you 846 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 4: got Travis kelce and will we get a bigger day 847 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 4: from Xavier Worthy. Yeah, maybe the target count comes up, 848 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 4: maybe sky Moore has the breakthrough we've been waiting on, 849 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:29,320 Speaker 4: or maybe there's a secret option that comes out. See again, 850 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 4: you know, he comes from behind the giant drapes like 851 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 4: it's a WWE surprise entrance, because that's what we're looking for. 852 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 4: We're looking for a trade, someone to invigorate them. I mean, 853 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,400 Speaker 4: you got Kareem Hunt, so as a runner and receiver, 854 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 4: he'll see more touches going forward, but that doesn't solve 855 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:48,240 Speaker 4: any of the problems overall. So Mahomes becomes a starter 856 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 4: in QB two leagues. I hate that we're you know, 857 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:55,800 Speaker 4: vanquishing all these would be fantasy stalwarts. Travis Kelcey stays 858 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 4: the top ten tight end. But otherwise we're going to 859 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 4: the wire and trying to find a little bit of 860 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 4: love because Rice had become that guy that was eating 861 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 4: up a lot of targets and headspace for Patrick Mahomes. 862 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 4: And right now, I gotta imagine Rashid Rice got a 863 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,800 Speaker 4: hell of a gift from his quarterback based on that play. 864 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 3: Let's get to the waiver wire pickups four. Week five. Again, 865 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 3: buys are starting. The buys are here. There's nothing you 866 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,959 Speaker 3: can do about it. We also have a London game, 867 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 3: Ian's Jets taking on the Minnesota Vikings, so you'll want 868 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 3: to get your lineups in early on Sunday if you 869 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 3: have any Jets or Vikings in them. But the Lions, Titans, Eagles, 870 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 3: and Chargers all off. 871 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 5: In Week five. Mike, who are we looking at on 872 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 5: the waiver wire? 873 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 4: Well, we miss some heavyweights there. Let's start with the 874 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 4: quarterback position. We'll start with your guy, Gino. Still only 875 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,880 Speaker 4: owned in about forty percent of leagues. All right, that 876 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 4: won't happen. After the showing he had against. 877 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 5: Detroit, the Giants come to town on week five. 878 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:53,760 Speaker 2: You got the Giants. 879 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 4: Giants, You're an interesting squad to me, much better than 880 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 4: perhaps the final product looks again, Daniel Jones. Is he 881 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 4: another one of those young quarterbacks that can't push the 882 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 4: ball downfield? 883 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:04,359 Speaker 2: Yeah? 884 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 4: I think so, justin fields only thirty three percent owned. 885 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:12,319 Speaker 4: Batt'll change again, looking at the way he's utilized as 886 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:16,839 Speaker 4: a runner and the passing game getting more and more confidence. 887 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,319 Speaker 4: Friar Mouth was back in the mix a little bit 888 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,760 Speaker 4: in week four, and obviously Pickens and he have developed 889 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 4: a rapport that's only going to get better, So opportunity there. 890 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 4: Joe Flacco might be weak to week we'll see what 891 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:34,279 Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson's status is. But this becomes the defensive play 892 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 4: because I think we're going to see much more of Flacco. 893 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 4: I dare say it before the and I hate to 894 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 4: because I hate seeing young quarterbacks off the field, but 895 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 4: we've seen it time and again. And that was a 896 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 4: big hit on the hip. He tried to go and 897 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 4: then crumpled, you know, on the next play, So that 898 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,959 Speaker 4: goes away. We'll look at the running back position, Trey 899 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:59,320 Speaker 4: Sermon that we talked about with Taylor waiting on his injury. 900 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,760 Speaker 4: Kareem Hunt again with Kansas City, trying to find lightning 901 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:05,880 Speaker 4: in the bottle, find another playmaker with all of the 902 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:10,760 Speaker 4: different injuries that they've suffered. So he'll see you. Carson 903 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 4: Steele was a great story. He's not an answer to 904 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 4: the question of who replaces Pacheco, but Kareem Hunt maybe 905 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 4: he is. How about this guy twenty five percent of 906 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 4: leagues Nick Chubb is available. 907 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:23,800 Speaker 5: Ah, Yes, back. 908 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 4: To practice reportedly on Wednesday. Maybe a little jolt to things. 909 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 4: Not to say that Jerome Ford hadn't been good in spots, 910 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 4: but there's a much bigger presence Nick Chubb brings to 911 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 4: the table if he's one hundred percent, much like we 912 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 4: watched Dereck Henry doing with the Baltimore Ravens and how 913 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 4: much it opens things up. Tank Bigsby ETN. Suffered a 914 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 4: shoulder injury in that Week four game. Not sure if 915 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 4: it sidelines him, but maybe judicious in the touch count 916 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 4: going forward. We've had a lot of talk about Zamir 917 00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 4: White and his futility. So Alexander Madison still a guy 918 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 4: on our radar here, as is Tyler all Jeer. Yeah, 919 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 4: I know he's John Robinson owners. You went hard at 920 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 4: the top of the draft, but they're trying to find 921 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 4: a spark for that offense that has had its issues. 922 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:16,879 Speaker 4: And then the obligatory Rashawn Johnson mentioned wide receivers where 923 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,720 Speaker 4: we need to make some Hey though, Wandale Robinson target 924 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 4: count from the Giants, get him in Xavier Legette. So 925 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 4: long as Andy Dalton slinging the ball around, no Adam feeling. 926 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 4: Someone else has to step up. Into a spot. You 927 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 4: can pick your poison With the Packer receivers outside of 928 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 4: Jim Reid, I don't know that I trust any of them, 929 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 4: but I guess i'd go down Tavi and Wicks if 930 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 4: I had to make a choice there. Trey Tucker of 931 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:47,799 Speaker 4: the Raiders gets on our radar, as does DeMarcus Robinson 932 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,279 Speaker 4: of the Rams. All of those are lightly owned a 933 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,359 Speaker 4: third or less in fantasy leagues coming into week five. 934 00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:59,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Packers wide receiver situation is so unique because 935 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 3: Wicks it's been the guy that's gotten the most hype 936 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,400 Speaker 3: but hasn't lived up to the hype. And now Watson 937 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:10,839 Speaker 3: being dinged up. He did have thirteen targets Wicks had 938 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 3: this past weekend, so maybe it's his opportunity to burst 939 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 3: onto the scene. But as he said, you know, Jaden 940 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 3: Reid so valuable seven catches one hundred and thirty nine 941 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 3: yards and that lost to Minnesota. But curious to see 942 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 3: I'm actually just curious to see on Jordan Love because 943 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:30,200 Speaker 3: I know his numbers looked great, but he just seemed 944 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 3: a little bulky with that knee. Yeah, interceptions, I don't 945 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 3: know if it's the Vikings, I don't know if it's 946 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:37,320 Speaker 3: the knee, but they are in LA to take the 947 00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:38,479 Speaker 3: Rams on in week five. 948 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 4: That just seemed like a game where I still questioned 949 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 4: him being on a field. Yeah, he and Justin Herbert 950 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 4: right now. I know the the Chargers had given up 951 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:54,399 Speaker 4: a game coming into week four, but you're still you're 952 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,399 Speaker 4: still playing for January or trying to sure and now 953 00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 4: injuries have beset them all over and then you had 954 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 4: the suspend, should have Derwin James and everything else. But 955 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 4: for the Packers you got two wins with Malik Willis, 956 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 4: who you brought off the scrap heap. You got him 957 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 4: into your system and you were able to do enough 958 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 4: with balance to win a couple of games. It seems 959 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 4: like you should have bought some time.
