1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:00,560
Speaker 1: Ladies.

2
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 2: You want experience during your football season, well, buckle up,

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 2: sweet cheeks. We've got all the experience in the world.

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 2: This is I want your flex with Dan Bayer and

5
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 2: Mike Harmon. Mike and Dan break down everything you need

6
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 2: to set your lineups, from position rankings to starts and sits.

7
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 2: The guys help you make those hard decisions. And now

8
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 2: let's get your flex on. Here's Dan Bayer and Mike Harmon.

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,599
Speaker 3: Week one is in the books. Hit him up, beat

10
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 3: swallow Dolly could find me at Dad Buyer on Fox.

11
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,559
Speaker 3: Don't worry. End of the podcast. We're gonna get your

12
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 3: waiver wire guys for week two, plus some drama in

13
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 3: the world of Survivor pools I made. I have some

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 3: explaining to do, but I hope my explanation is good enough. Again,

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 3: that's coming up at the end of the pod. Also

16
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 3: talk about some quarterback and playing TWA and play the Mike.

17
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 3: We kind of got to start where we ended week one,

18
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 3: and that was Monday night football. And it may not

19
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 3: have anything to do with any of the players that

20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 3: actually played, because I know Christian McCaffrey probably ruined a

21
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 3: lot of fantasy lineups when we found out that he

22
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 3: was not going to be playing ninety minutes before kickoff

23
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: on Monday.

24
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: You want to talk about a kick in the teeth, right,

25
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,199
Speaker 1: I'm getting ready to get in the car and rally

26
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: up to the Fox Sports radio studios, and that comes across,

27
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: and I immediately text my partner in crime during the week,

28
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: Jason Smith, big Jets fan for those unaware, and he

29
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: just gets absolutely giddy. He posted some ridiculous thing in

30
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: the Twitter verse of an expectation of Rogers' stat line.

31
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a minute. But McCaffrey going

32
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: down becomes the all right scramble drill to the waiver

33
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: wire or to benches, depending on how you set up

34
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: your squad, whether Jordan Mason, who ends up being a

35
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: star for the day, was available, or if your roster

36
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: was already locked to the point where you couldn't do anything.

37
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: So I mean the Monday night football, it was the

38
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: worst of all circumstance. This is the number one overall

39
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: player in fantasy football and a Monday night game in

40
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: leaving you with very few options by which to make amends,

41
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: and certainly any gap you were trying to close, and

42
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: you were making the assumption the ronco said it, and

43
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: forget it that even against a tough Jets defense, I'm

44
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,519
Speaker 1: going to catch six to eight passes. I'm going to

45
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: pile up eighty total yards and get my thirteen fourteen points.

46
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,399
Speaker 1: And as a base yeah, you had none of it.

47
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, kicking the teeth for fantasy owners, which after

48
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: what was a pretty difficult week overall with some of

49
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: the star power loss due to injury.

50
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say this, if you had Christian McCaffrey,

51
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 3: is it a given nowadays to handcuff with Jordan Mason? Right?

52
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: Well, look I did it before they sent him to IR.

53
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: I had Eli Mitchell, right, who looked like depending on

54
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: when you drafted, right, I guess is the thing because

55
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: I was actually a draft where I took Mitchell and

56
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: he was kind of questionable, and before the end of

57
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: that round someone went and took Jordan Mason, and then

58
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 1: eventually Mitchell's injury. Maybe maybe he had the inside dope,

59
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: but he ends up going to IR instead of being

60
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: a all right, we'll just mountitor it week to week

61
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: and then Mason has this type of game. But yeah,

62
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: just in general, with McCaffrey, I think I think to

63
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 1: that in the last couple of years, I would have

64
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: been doing that based on his injury history, if I

65
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: was going to go in for him in round one.

66
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that you have to, and I don't

67
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: think that you can do that with every running back

68
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 3: in the National Football League right For example, like I

69
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: have Kenneth Walker the third. Last year, I made sure

70
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 3: that I got Zach Charboney and was like, all right,

71
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 3: I'm set there. If he goes down this year, I'm like, don't.

72
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: I don't really need to do that. I don't if

73
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 3: Kenneth Walker the third goes down, Kenneth Walker the third

74
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 3: goes down, and I just will have hopefully somebody else

75
00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: on my bench that does it. You know that that

76
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 3: fills in and just does just as good of a job.

77
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 3: Not putting an all on Zach Charbaday shoulders. But there

78
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 3: are just certain certain backs that I don't think need one.

79
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 3: And then you have a situation like in San Francisco

80
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 3: where it feels like you can just plug in someone

81
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 3: and have success. It's not everywhere throughout the league that

82
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 3: you can do that, but yeah, I think that that

83
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 3: San Francisco and whether it has been Christian McCaffrey or

84
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 3: you know, your point of when Elijah Mitchell was healthy,

85
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,720
Speaker 3: but you know even before that, when Mostert was there, right,

86
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 3: you know, they just had so many different guys that

87
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 3: you just wanted to have. And it almost feels like

88
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 3: the Mike Shanahan days with Denver that you just needed

89
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 3: to get the backups there just in case somebody went down.

90
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 3: But I don't think you need to do that with

91
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:41,799
Speaker 3: all thirty two teams.

92
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: What's funny is I'm actually thinking with any of these

93
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: other squads, I mean, where else would you do that?

94
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 4: In?

95
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: Uh, well, I mean Detroit. They're two separate guys, yeah,

96
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: and both draftable, right, so you know, unless you're just saying,

97
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: I'm running out the Detroit running backs of Gibbs and

98
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: and my guy Montgomery, you know, then you're probably getting

99
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: that handcuffed split. I guess I'd look at I thought, yeah,

100
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: the Rams, I think would be the one the other spot, right,

101
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: if you drafted Kien will Karen Williams, that you would

102
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: have been looking at Blake Korum.

103
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, and and and maybe another one and and again

104
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 5: you're not gonna do this with anyone, like if Saquon

105
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 5: goes down I'm not like I need Kenneth Gainwell, right,

106
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 5: you know, like I need to have him because Jalen

107
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 5: Hurts will just take all of.

108
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: I was gonna say that would suddenly become a much

109
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: different split as we've seen in years past.

110
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 6: Right.

111
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think the when you look at Shanahan

112
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: and you look at McVeigh, those are the two guys

113
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: that I think I would be looking at to where

114
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 1: all right, next man up based on the system they run. Otherwise, Now,

115
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: I don't I don't think there's anyone that is is obvious.

116
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: I think there's more concern of if you may have

117
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 1: drafted the guy that's now being out snapped and outplayed,

118
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 1: and you might have a little bit of handwringing situations

119
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 1: in a couple of spots around the leagues. But in

120
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: terms of the draft preparation, yeah, I don't think that's

121
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: very very deep there at all.

122
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think that the further that we go, the

123
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 3: less you need to do it. So it was so

124
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 3: like if you if you're going out. And the reason

125
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,919
Speaker 3: I say that is because I was gonna say, what

126
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 3: about someone like Bucky Irving, you know, like with her

127
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 3: shot way Now, now I kind of feel like even

128
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 3: though Bucky Irving seemed to, you know, have a useful

129
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 3: role at least against Washington he did, it still doesn't

130
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 3: rise to the level of, Okay, I'm playing Bucky Irving

131
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 3: every week. It's just very few and far between with

132
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 3: certain teams in the NFL.

133
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, we'll see.

134
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,119
Speaker 1: I mean week one obviously it's a it's a great

135
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: starter set, but depending on the matchup, right, And some

136
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 1: of these became walkovers. So trying to read, you know what,

137
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: what was the effective time during I don't want to

138
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: say real football because it sounds dismissive because you play

139
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: until the final whistle. But let's face it, some of

140
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 1: these games kind of got out of hand. So maybe

141
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: the workload split changes there and expectations they're thereof you know,

142
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: it's Week one is always the great liar, for lack

143
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: of a better term, right, where we do some excuse

144
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: making based on our maybe the draft picks that we've made,

145
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: or or pass successes with the player or whatever, and

146
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 1: it's like, no, no, no, he's got to be better

147
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: and the team's gonna be better, and maybe they won't

148
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: be but after week one, maybe we do a little

149
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: bit of that or if there's somebody that we had,

150
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: you know, we we pat ourselves on the back. Right,

151
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: if you thought they were gonna have a down year

152
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: and they had a bad week, one, Yep, there it is.

153
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: They're trash. Like Nah, the NFL does a lot of

154
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: marquee matchup nonsense. I don't necessarily agree with it, because

155
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: I think we'd watch any of these teams play a

156
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: ham sandwich.

157
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 6: We're so starved for football.

158
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: But it's the idea of, hey, we get all the

159
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: balls we need and for some of these Now you

160
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: just go back to our regularly scheduled programming of filling

161
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: out the slate with maybe some easier matchups, much like

162
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: that Monday night affair. Right, trying to wring our hands

163
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: about too much of what the Jets did and didn't do.

164
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: They were still facing the co Super Bowl favorite. When

165
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: it's all said none.

166
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, what are your thoughts then on

167
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 3: CMC going forward?

168
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, one, we know we can't trust Kyle Shanahan.

169
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 1: I'm sure he'll get a nice call from the Commissioner's

170
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: office or whoever tomorrow about this situation with Jordan Mason.

171
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: And when you know he was told and the injury designation,

172
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:45,079
Speaker 1: but certainly for McCaffrey. Look, as soon as they started

173
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: talking about where on his you know, his leg injuries were,

174
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: and it became a myriad or comma separating different, you know,

175
00:08:54,480 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: parts of an injury history and injury status. I better

176
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: make sure I've got another viable back at the ready,

177
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: and he'll be sitting as you and I and Ian

178
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: we're talking about, you know, as we were getting started.

179
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, you utilize if you have him

180
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: in your league, particularly if you have multiple use that

181
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: flex position for any guy that's got a red star

182
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: next to him.

183
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think you have to. There is a

184
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 3: Jets conversation as well. You mentioned Ian so Ian Roddy

185
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 3: are executive Hello, perfect, perfect opportunity. Ian, the great executive

186
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 3: producer of this show, knows all thirty one teams, but

187
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 3: only one is attached to his heart, and that is

188
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 3: the New York Jets. Let's get the post mortem as

189
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 3: you actually saw. I was gonna say, Aaron Rodgers play

190
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 3: a whole game, but since they pulled him in the

191
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: fourth quarter for Torod Taylor, it wasn't a whole game.

192
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 3: But at least he wasn't out on play for your

193
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 3: sorry to make jokes about your misery from a year

194
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 3: ago as well, I'm used to it, but yeah, you're

195
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 3: ware of the Sauce Gardner jersey and he ends up

196
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 3: going you know, out of the.

197
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 6: Game for your situation there.

198
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but Jets Jets wise on offense is a

199
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 3: Jets fan, How are you feeling after seeing this Week

200
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:07,599
Speaker 3: one performance?

201
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 4: I I'm not as discouraged as some Jets fans might be,

202
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 4: just because of the simple fact that it was the

203
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 4: forty nine ers, Like they're just top to bottom, the

204
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 4: best roster in football, so to be honest, I wasn't

205
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,719
Speaker 4: like really expecting the Jets to play particularly well against them. Yeah,

206
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 4: but specifically for players. Breice Hall didn't really get much

207
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 4: running room going, but he still fell into the end

208
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 4: zone for a touchdown, which is you know, good to

209
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 4: see that. You know, even on his poor performances, there's

210
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,079
Speaker 4: you know, can be salvaged a little bit. Garrett Wilson

211
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 4: he didn't have a great game, but he was targeted up,

212
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 4: you know, like twelve times, so that was encouraging too.

213
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 4: And then Rogers didn't move around a lot, which isn't

214
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 4: great for fantasy but he had a nice touchdown throw

215
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 4: to Lazard, and you know, I think he'll be okay

216
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 4: for fantasy. He's not gonna be one of those top options,

217
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,319
Speaker 4: but I don't think anybody really expected that out of him.

218
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: Anybody get a get because we didn't have the sound

219
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: on in the studio. The explanation as to why that

220
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: play wasn't blown dead when dude was five yards in

221
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,079
Speaker 1: the defensive backfield.

222
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 3: Honestly because I think it's Aaron Rodgers.

223
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, they just gave him the free play.

224
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I honestly thought the same thing Mike Guys, Like

225
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 3: that was any other quarterback, they would have ran in

226
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 3: and tried to protect him. But I didn't think that,

227
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 3: I think because then the stat that they put up,

228
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 3: I mean, they had stats at the ready on free

229
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 3: plays and how Aaron Rodgers leads in all of these stats.

230
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 3: So it's maybe maybe it was something that Sally even

231
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 3: got in the refs. He was saying like, hey man.

232
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 4: Hey man, they have a graphic. They have a graphic.

233
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that looked like it was, you know, the

234
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: the classic case of unabated to the quarterback and everybody

235
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 1: stops like the linebacker watches Lazard run past him touchdown.

236
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 3: He was closer to Rogers than the umpire was, like

237
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 3: that's it was. It was crazy, it truly was, but hey,

238
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 3: it ended up working. And it's one of those things

239
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 3: to where I can't even remember who it was that

240
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 3: jumped off sides.

241
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 4: I think it was Floyd, was that it was Leonard Floyd,

242
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 4: who ironically was the one who sacked him when he

243
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 4: tore his achilles.

244
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 3: Then you know, like that's the that's the spot where

245
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 3: you're like, well, now I can't tackle him, you know,

246
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 3: like like definitely, like I'm the last person in the

247
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 3: world that's gonna take a Freelo.

248
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 4: Did sack him, I think, and I don't don't. Don't

249
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 4: take my word on that, but I'm pretty sure that

250
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 4: Floyd did get a sack on him because I remember

251
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 4: thinking like what was going through his head there?

252
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 3: Sure, but not not at that play. At that play

253
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 3: you can't be the guy. Then that's unabated to the quarterback.

254
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 3: And then end this season is the second straight year.

255
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 1: And yeah, he was just so offside, So like, how

256
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: is not that's not dead because everybody stops except for

257
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 1: Rogers and Lazard.

258
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 3: He touchdown Jets Lazard the Lizard pointed up to it

259
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 3: and Rogers hit him. And that's the easiest thing they've

260
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 3: done all night. I'll say this about the Jets. This

261
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 3: by far, it was their toughest game of the year

262
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 3: on the road in San Francisco. When you look at

263
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 3: the rest of their slate. Not to be schedule guy,

264
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 3: but we do that with fantasy foot.

265
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: Get after it next couple of weeks, Stan, Yeah, absolutely right.

266
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 1: Their next three games are all very winnable games, right Tennessee,

267
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: that gave away and gifted my Bears. They're one and

268
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: zero record as I sit here with a Bears hat

269
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: on as we do the podcast. And then they've got

270
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: New England and Stevenson and I mean, look, the defense

271
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: will be strong. We'll see what they can muster offensively.

272
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 1: And then they've got Denver, which I don't know what

273
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 1: Denver's going to be. They gave you know, you can

274
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 1: talk about it. You probably watched every play twice against

275
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: your Seahawks, but in the end they kept what did

276
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: Bonicks have three point three yards per passing attempt?

277
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, at one point in the first half, that's what

278
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 3: it was. You know, doing the red Zone show, you

279
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 3: don't get to watch the game as much as you

280
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 3: would like.

281
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 1: You know so well, but you could be on air

282
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: curse about what your team does and doesn't do.

283
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 3: Well, that's yeah, miserable. Something is that, Hey, can you

284
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 3: talk about the Cowboys and Browns for a second? Big

285
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 3: game that's going on?

286
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: No, no, the Browns didn't show up. Let me go

287
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: back to this one over here.

288
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 3: Oh man, I'll tell you what. It was kind of

289
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 3: a dog window for games, to be honest, this is true.

290
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 3: So but uh, in week two, or I should say,

291
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 3: the first window did provide some craziness and we had

292
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 3: a you know, a late field goal in the Jaguars

293
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 3: Dolphins game. But I don't know, maybe there'll be some

294
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 3: more drama in week two. Well, I'll just I'll finish

295
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 3: this about the Jets point ian and it comes as

296
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 3: a fantasy perspective. Rogers looks stiff as stiff as heck.

297
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 3: He didn't move at all, And I am curious on

298
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 3: how that's gonna move there throughout the season. Is he's

299
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 3: gonna loose it up? Was he tentative? He just he looked.

300
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 3: His legs were always a factor because he could move,

301
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 3: You could move in the pocket, he could get a

302
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 3: first down if you needed run out of bounds, do

303
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 3: that sort of thing. And he just looked very, very stiff,

304
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 3: and so I hope he loosens up.

305
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 4: Even as a fan, whenever he would even try and

306
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 4: move or roll out of the pocket, I was just like,

307
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 4: oh god, you know, just go down, Like I just

308
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 4: don't want to deal with that anxiety this season, and

309
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 4: it's gonna be a huge factor the whole the whole season.

310
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, well you gotta wonder if he's got the

311
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: mental block right of you know, testing your leg that way.

312
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: I feel like he has to, right because I mean,

313
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: we like get to put it in the competitive stuff.

314
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: I watched my daughter's you know, soccer squad and the

315
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: kids with their leg injuries coming back off injuries, like

316
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: you know, they had one that tore hminniscus, another that

317
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: was in a walking boot because of their ankle for

318
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, and then you watch them play

319
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: for the first month or so and they're reticent to

320
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 1: cut redit, reticent to kind of bad ball out and

321
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: like they've got one of their girls who's finally healthy,

322
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,359
Speaker 1: I think for the first time in a full calendar,

323
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: and she's running rough shit over people like she's been

324
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: shot out of a cannon. Sure, and all of a

325
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: sudden everything's right. So for Aaron Rodgers, part of that,

326
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: you know, just trusting your leg again and eventually I

327
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: guess you're gonna get chased down by a guy like

328
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: Floyd to where you're there's there's gonna be a fight

329
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: or flight response anyway.

330
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean, it's you're gonna have to otherwise

331
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 3: you're not gonna make it.

332
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's inasing. Well, you could do the Peyton Manning move.

333
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: You know, like those little toys you used to have

334
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: where you press the bottom and the legs would collapse

335
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,239
Speaker 1: and then you let it out and they spring back tada.

336
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: That's kind of what Manning did for years. I mean,

337
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: I guess Rogers could use that move.

338
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 3: Uh, he's Mike Carmon, I'm Dan Baya. You heard the

339
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 3: voice of Ian Roddy, our executive producer. Our quick recap

340
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 3: of what was Monday Night Football. We'll take a bigger

341
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 3: look at what happened in Week one of the NFL season,

342
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 3: specifically what happened at the quarterbacking position and if you

343
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 3: felt the pain of your quarterback not showing up You're

344
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 3: not alone. That's next here and I want your flex.

345
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 3: Hit me up at Dan Byron Fox, get Mike at

346
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 3: Swollen Dome. It is I want your flex. He's Mike Harmon,

347
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 3: I'm Dan Byer. Executive producer is Ian Roddy. I've got

348
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: to say, Mike, I wasn't happy with my quarterback play

349
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 3: in some of my leagues. I do have Josh Allen

350
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 3: in one league, so I was fine with that, but

351
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 3: there were other spots. Trevor Lawrence underwhelming. I was hoping

352
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 3: a little bit more from him, and Jacksonville's lost to Miami. CJ.

353
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 3: Stroud had a nice game, but I thought, man, I

354
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,479
Speaker 3: feel like I'm missing out. I don't know if I

355
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 3: was missing out, because it doesn't seem my quarterback play

356
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 3: was great around Week one.

357
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: Fantasy wise, we have six quarterbacks finished with more than

358
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:41,120
Speaker 1: twenty Fantasy points this week, one of which was Derek Carr,

359
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: who passed for about four yards and three touchdowns in

360
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: that blowout win over Carolina. Okay, I exaggerate a bit,

361
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: but Josh Allen, Baker Mayfield, Jaden Daniels mostly with his legs,

362
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson on the strength of his legs, and two

363
00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 1: giant passes to Alec Pearce and then Jackson going back

364
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 1: to the season opener, those are your top five, with

365
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 1: Derek Carr coming in six. Your guy Gino Smith was

366
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: at number seven.

367
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 3: There, Dan help, So do you have a thirty four

368
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 3: yard touchdown run? You know, like it does, but like CJ.

369
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 3: Stroud was, he had a you know, big play to

370
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 3: Nico Collins, had a couple of touchdown passes and then

371
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 3: you thinking like, okay, it was probably around two ninety

372
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 3: at the point, and then you're like, wait a second, No,

373
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 3: he wasn't. And it just funky week. And especially if

374
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 3: I don't want to say if he had the guts

375
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 3: mic to start Jayden Daniels because I think he was

376
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 3: borderline starter for the twelve team like that really paid off.

377
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 3: But man, the names that we had that you expected

378
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 3: from from certain people, Kyler Murray, you know, I thought

379
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 3: maybe a Buffalo's defense would be susceptible, and he wasn't

380
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 3: necessarily there. For as good as the you know, we

381
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 3: thought that the Chiefs were. Patrick Mahomes didn't have the

382
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 3: huge game as we thought Dak against the Browns. For

383
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 3: as great as the Cowboys were, his numbers weren't great,

384
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,120
Speaker 3: just a very funky week.

385
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: In that Aspen Super Toe, right, Dak Prescott was eighteenth

386
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: with one hundred and seventy nine passing yards in that game.

387
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: Gino was right behind him at one seventy one. But

388
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 1: you only had two guys Eclipse three hundred yards, Tua

389
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: and Stafford, each of which threw one touchdown pass. He

390
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:23,959
Speaker 1: obviously had Baker with his four he was at two

391
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 1: eighty nine, so that's the one that I think kind

392
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: of stands out. Mahomes got to two ninety one, but

393
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 1: just the singular touchdown, and that was kind of the theme

394
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: the Kyler Murray effort. Interesting because we get over the

395
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: total with sixty two points scored in that game, but

396
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty two in a touchdown, added fifty

397
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 1: seven rushing yards to give you a little bit of juice,

398
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:52,640
Speaker 1: But otherwise, I mean, certainly not the performance you expected

399
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 1: to the I think Daniel Jeremiah and Matt Mney Smith

400
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 1: used the term so approp brittley calling the Raiders and

401
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: Chargers game the rock fight. Justin Herbert one hundred forty

402
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: four yards passing and then one of the more disappointing performances,

403
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: and it was against tough defense, so I wasn't expecting

404
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: him to be overwhelming, as we talked about last week,

405
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: you know, doing our rankings and setting up the week.

406
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 1: But Kirk Cousins one hundred and fifty five passing yards, Yeah,

407
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: just a dismal performance. My favorite though, was the shot

408
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: chart of Justin Fields. He gets the start and not

409
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 1: really surprising, but he didn't complete a pass over the

410
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 1: middle of the field. Everything was to the edges, which

411
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 1: was kind of interesting, not you know, non fantasy in

412
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 1: the moment, but just kind of an interesting observational thing.

413
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 1: But overall, I mean Sam Darnold two eight and two.

414
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: Richardson we talked about with the numbers Golf only through

415
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: for two seventeen.

416
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 3: You know, Richardson is interesting because I was even texting

417
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 3: with a buddy as it was happening, and we're usually

418
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 3: making jokes about our own team, and he has Anthony

419
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 3: Richardson and he's like, yeah, I'm sure the twenty five

420
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 3: yards per completion average is really gonna gonna continue. But

421
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 3: but like you know, that's I guess that's kind of

422
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 3: like my question with all of this. You know, Seattle,

423
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 3: what they used to do is there would be a

424
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 3: lot of there'd be a lot of play action with

425
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,399
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson, and then he would take at least three

426
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 3: or four shots down the field. Whether a card or

427
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 3: not didn't matter. You're also hoping for a pass interference. Sure,

428
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 3: no scenario, and I almost kind of feel like that's

429
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 3: gonna be the same thing with the Colts. It's just

430
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 3: nothing changed with Anthony Richardson from the preseason in my mind,

431
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 3: except the fact that he made it through Week one

432
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 3: without an injury and that you hope that he can

433
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,959
Speaker 3: continue to perform like that. But even in the loss,

434
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 3: it felt like Colts fans felt it was a win

435
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 3: for how Anthony Richardson performed and he completed nine passes,

436
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 3: right like you know, like that's it's just it's it's

437
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 3: crazy for me to think, but on a fantasy perspective,

438
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 3: that's all that you want from the guy.

439
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, you had the two massive plays to Alec Pierce

440
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 1: who had three catches on his three targets for one

441
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five yards, and then you had the

442
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 1: fifty four yard pass to Ashton Doolan. Pittman was a

443
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: non factor. Ad Ni Mitchell who we talked about a

444
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: little bit in the preseason. Five targets, one catch, two

445
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,679
Speaker 1: yards and Jonathan Taylor, who historically would have given you

446
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 1: the play action option, you know, by running all over

447
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans as he's done so many times, sixteen

448
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: for forty eight. No balance there against Houston this time out.

449
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 1: Great game, fun game, sustainable. Hell no, so's it'll It'll

450
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 1: be curious to see how this gets refined the fact

451
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 1: that Pittman just had the four for thirty one and

452
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: good job by you know, the defense and what they

453
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: set out to do with Houston, no question about it.

454
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: But yeah, Richardson's won those guys. Look, I was down

455
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: on him. I know he was season wide. I saw

456
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: him top six, top seven, and a lot of fantasy rankings.

457
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 1: I still would be surprised if we saw him play

458
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: more than thirteen or fourteen games stylistically, But from week one, hey,

459
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 1: you got your returns if you had the guts to

460
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: play him.

461
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 3: Here's here's here's my concern with Richardson. Number one, the

462
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 3: Texans had the ball for forty minutes during the game.

463
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 3: They outsnapped the Colt seventy six to forty three, and

464
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 3: so you look at how the Texans wanted to play

465
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,360
Speaker 3: the game, and they played it their way. But it's

466
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 3: also if if you don't get those bombs, Mike, I

467
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 3: don't know. I don't know, like how many snaps you're

468
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,719
Speaker 3: you're getting And if that is your offense, is this

469
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 3: now going to be a scenario where your defense is

470
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 3: on the field a lot more. Yeah, because that's the

471
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 3: only way that you could really generate you know, Michael

472
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 3: Pittman Junior was a guy that we, you know, really

473
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 3: liked coming into the season, and that's not Michael Pittman

474
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 3: Junior's game. And so if you're if the only way

475
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 3: that you're gonna get yards passing the ball is chucking

476
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 3: at sixty yards downfield, I don't know how your offense

477
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 3: and defense working concert And maybe that that affects Jonathan Taylor.

478
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 3: So Richardson may get his, but I don't know if

479
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 3: it's great for the Colts. And to that point, then

480
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 3: if you're the Colts, do you need to switch stuff up?

481
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 3: A lot of questions, especially too, because they have the

482
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 3: Bears coming up, they have the Steelers, a couple of

483
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 3: tough defenses, so it's not gonna get any easier for

484
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson early in the season.

485
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 1: Well, if you saw anything out of the Chicago game,

486
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,640
Speaker 1: I mean, the defense was swarming. They did everything Eberflus preached.

487
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: And certainly one of the notes in between, you know,

488
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: his beard grooming on hard knocks, was just the aggressiveness

489
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,679
Speaker 1: and ball hawking, trying to get back to Bears teams

490
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,959
Speaker 1: of old. So a little bit of that, and certainly

491
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: Will Levis doing his best. And I feel bad making

492
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: the analogy because you know, we more in the passing

493
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: of James Earl Jones at ninety three. But when Levis

494
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: threw that ill fated interception that was returned for a touchdown,

495
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: he dropped to his knees and put his arms up.

496
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 1: I thought of the Darth Vader moment where he yells no.

497
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 6: Ah, So there you have it there.

498
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 1: But that that is to say, you know, with with

499
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: Houston and Indianapolis, this is you know, this is the

500
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: first of many battles between these two.

501
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 6: This is this will be fun to watch it. Shake down.

502
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 1: Surprised that Joe Mixon was able to run thirty times

503
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 1: for one hundred and fifty nine you heard it. But yeah,

504
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: we'll talk about him another time. But yeah, if going

505
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 1: for the downs is the only way, and I mentioned

506
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: downs because well, Josh Downs didn't play, so there's another

507
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: member of the receiving corps that they'll get back for Indy.

508
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,360
Speaker 1: But you know, no balance, and this game was never

509
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: out of sorts, right, They were never down to where

510
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 1: it's like, all right, we're just chucking because we need

511
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: to because we're down three touchdowns.

512
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it felt it, you know, it felt like the

513
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 3: Texans are keeping them at bay, and then Richardson would

514
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 3: really back in with a big play you know here there,

515
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 3: and so then the Texans would have to drive down

516
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 3: the field and go and score again to try to

517
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 3: keep him at But that was kind of the sense

518
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 3: that I got of this game. It's funny that you

519
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 3: mentioned the Titans because that's the other quarterback, not will

520
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 3: Levis Id. We want to talk about kayleb Williams. But

521
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 3: before we talked about kyleab Williams, did you hear Brian

522
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 3: Callahan's comments on Monday in talking about their offense. I'm

523
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 3: going to paraphrase because I don't have it word for word,

524
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 3: but he joked that their defense was playing very well

525
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 3: in the game, and he joked he said, we probably

526
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 3: should have punted it on twenty ten because, you know,

527
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 3: the Bear the only offense that the Bears are. The

528
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 3: only points the Bears offense actually contributed to the scoreboard

529
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,439
Speaker 3: was the two point conversion from Kayleb Williams to DeAndre Swift.

530
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 3: Otherwise it was a bunch of Santos field goals and

531
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 3: the two defensive scores. But I mean, like, I thought

532
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 3: that was hilarious. I thought it was an awful indictment

533
00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 3: on will Levis that you'd rather punt on first and dead.

534
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 3: I know he was trying to compliment his defense, but

535
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 3: I think he would want that one back. But we're

536
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 3: not even talking about will Levis. What do you think

537
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 3: of Caleb Williams's debut, the fourteen to twenty nine for

538
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 3: ninety three yards.

539
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 1: You know, it's hard to give it the ringing endorsement,

540
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,199
Speaker 1: but maybe glass half full guy coming out of it,

541
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: certainly for fantasy purposes, a dismal effort for you know

542
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,639
Speaker 1: that he didn't use his legs a ton, except for

543
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: the twenty yard sack that he took, you know, the

544
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: welcome to NFL speed moment. Yeah, you know, things you

545
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: could do in college that you can't do in the

546
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 1: pros that they will find you like a heat seeking missile.

547
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 1: You know that that'll get better a couple of missed opportunities,

548
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 1: you know, throws, a couple of balls batted down at

549
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: the line. That was a bit concerning arm angle and

550
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,399
Speaker 1: and just kind of the read there. But m Keenan

551
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 1: Allen dropped a shirt touchdown, right, and you know, all

552
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: the highlight films we could we could show him taking

553
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 1: the sack. We could show maybe not having proper touch

554
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,399
Speaker 1: to the edges at times and whatever. I don't know

555
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 1: that the Keenan Allen drop made it into a bunch

556
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: of those cuts because that touchdown gets scored. I'm not

557
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 1: saying it erases everything. And maybe he passes for one

558
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards because he finds some guy. I

559
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 1: don't know, but you know, when you have the goose egg,

560
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 1: it's a lot easier. And then you get Callahan come

561
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: over the top that kind of you know, while slapping

562
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: his own quarterback kind of does a three stooges thing.

563
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 1: Because Caleb Williams is getting some of the residual coming

564
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: out of us, right, So losing Roma dunes the certainly

565
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 1: is not gonna help. He's got an MRI scheduled and

566
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: might miss some time because of a knee injury where

567
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 1: he got rolled up on a play on the edge

568
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 1: later on in the game. But all that to say,

569
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 1: it can't get any worse. I mean, even against a

570
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: Houston team that will certainly be swarming, and I can't

571
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: wait to see what Demico Ryans and his staff put

572
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: together for him. But Keenan Allen's not going to drop

573
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: that ball again. He had eleven targets, was invisible right.

574
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: The tight ends a lot of blocking, certainly, the aggressiveness

575
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 1: of the Tennessee front, and the fact that the Bear's

576
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: got nothing out of the running game until late, like

577
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift basically couldn't fall forward the first three quarters

578
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 1: of the game. He ends up with I guess reasonable

579
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: enough stat line off a couple of runs in the fourth,

580
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: So you know it's I'm not saying all of a sudden,

581
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,719
Speaker 1: I'm thrusting him in the lineups. Look, I had him

582
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: in the Guillotine League and I survived in spite of him,

583
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: but with Derek Carr on the bench. Not that I

584
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: wanted Derek Carr in any game, but yeah, there it

585
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: is that that's what happens in a guillotine league of

586
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: eighteen teams, but for Caleb Williams uneven. But the defense

587
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: special team is gonna save your bacon. So from a

588
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: football standpoint, they're gonna be dangerous enough to steal a

589
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 1: couple of games like that. From a fantasy standpoint, he's

590
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: fixed permanently on my bench until you see some level

591
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 1: of consistency.

592
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you on that, because you likely took him.

593
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 3: And then he said, well, I got to get somebody

594
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 3: else in case this doesn't work out. Let's have some fun.

595
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 3: Let's play Caleb Williams week one. And then you saw

596
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 3: what week one is, and I said, okay, let's let's

597
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 3: drive the Let's let's drive the other car for the winter,

598
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 3: and we'll bring out the Lamborghini in summer on Sundays

599
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 3: and maybe we'll let somebody else handle this for a while.

600
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, that's exactly what you do.

601
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean at the other part, Dan is you know,

602
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: as we talk about you know, game planning and scheming

603
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: or whatever, it's a lot of time to prepare for

604
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 1: an individual and and for some of these teams, you know,

605
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: you get these marquee matchups like the Jets, as we

606
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: were talking about with the in the first segment, right,

607
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 1: it's the all right, you've got the forty nine ers

608
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: marquee game week one, unsteady, you know, unsure your quarterback

609
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: comes in Now, Did I expect him to get punched

610
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: in the mouth and run over like they did by

611
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: the forty hours. No, but you're not facing anybody better

612
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: likewise week one. They've had everything they could possibly do

613
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 1: to try to get themselves off on the right foot

614
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: to scheme you up, whether it's looking at your college

615
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 1: film or whatever you put on tape last year. There's

616
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: not a lot of surprises, so you know, better days,

617
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: I guess would be the.

618
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 6: Spot for that.

619
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 3: I don't know if you share this opinion, but I'm

620
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 3: gonna just end it with this. Yeah, if you have

621
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams on your bench, you're not gonna get screwed

622
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 3: by sitting him and him throwing for three hundred yards

623
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 3: and four touchdowns. Because I don't think that game is

624
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 3: in concert with the Bears defense. We were just talking

625
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 3: about the Colts offense and what you know, the stress

626
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 3: that it puts on their defense. We know the Bear

627
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 3: strength is their defense. Does the Bears no good for

628
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams to throw for three hundred and fifty yards

629
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 3: and four touchdowns to get in a track meet. So

630
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 3: the game that Caleb Williams does break out, it's probably

631
00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 3: not gonna be that big, so you don't have to

632
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 3: miss it. Whereas like Jayden Daniels, if you benched him

633
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 3: this past week, you're like, crap, he had two touchdowns

634
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 3: and a bunch of rushing yards and you know, you know,

635
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 3: and he may have more of those. I just don't

636
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 3: see that game with Caleb Williams. For the breakout game.

637
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 3: He'll have a two seventy game and two touchdowns and

638
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 3: then you could kind of be like, Okay, I feel

639
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 3: comfortable playing with him, but I don't think you're gonna

640
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 3: get that that one off three point thirty four TD

641
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 3: game that's gonna make you kick yourself.

642
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, you know, look, and if it pops,

643
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: it pops. But looking for that consistently, it's it's not

644
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: going to be there.

645
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 6: That's not the identity.

646
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: But you know, a point I made in the twitterse Instagram,

647
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 1: whatever else.

648
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 6: We were kind of wrapped up.

649
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 1: In a lot of the smith and I on the

650
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: Monday show, so we didn't get deep into in the

651
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,479
Speaker 1: Bears chatter. But for Caleb Williams must have been a

652
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: really interesting thing going on in his head. Since he

653
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 1: carried the asses of everybody at USC for a couple

654
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: of years, try to put up as many points and

655
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: getting no defensive help and now having that come back

656
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: the other way. That had to be a really odd

657
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: experience for him. Yeah, and probably very welcome for once.

658
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 3: Actually. I like to see him how excited he was

659
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 3: after the win. Yeah, you know like that. That was

660
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 3: good to see. He's Mike Carmen, I'm Dan Byer it is.

661
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 3: I want your flex all right now. We're gonna get

662
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 3: you set for week two when we come back. Mike's

663
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 3: got some waiver wire names, guys you got to pick up.

664
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 3: And I'm gonna tell you about Survivor in week one

665
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 3: and boy what a week when it was. That's next

666
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 3: here on. I want your flex all right with week

667
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 3: one of the books. I don't know if we know

668
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 3: more or less than we do from prior to week one, Mike, Yeah,

669
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 3: because it's when you get the week two. Sometimes it's

670
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 3: a little tricky, but there are some injuries you mentioned

671
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 3: the Rome. With Dunze injury, we have pukin Dakua. It's

672
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 3: gonna be on IR. Packers are saying what they're saying

673
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 3: about Jordan Love, I'd be shocked if he played against

674
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 3: the Colts. Doesn't look like he's going to be going

675
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 3: on IR at least that was the early message from

676
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 3: Matt Lafleur. I don't know if how those guys play

677
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 3: into your waiver wire selections, but who do we target

678
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 3: on the waiver wire in week two?

679
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 1: Certainly have to decide whether laflor lies like Shanahan got

680
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: to listen to the whole show, the whole podcast. From

681
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 1: the quarterback position, you know, you got two guys that

682
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 1: had big weeks who are basically unowned in a lot

683
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: of Fantasy league at Baker Mayfield and Derek Carr. But

684
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 1: you look at the next matchups. You know, Baker's at Detroit,

685
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:20,799
Speaker 1: it should be able to move the ball. We saw

686
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 1: Stafford in the Rams even with just Cooper Cup have

687
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: success to eighty nine and four was the stat line

688
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: for Baker. Opportunity here on the road at Detroit. For

689
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,840
Speaker 1: Derek Carr maybe not as excitable. It's not Carolina, No

690
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 1: it's a road trip to Dallas where we saw Michael

691
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: Parsons and company flying around, but again unowned in a

692
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 1: ton of leagues. Now, part of it is looking at

693
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: your roster management and your bench and playing defense, seeing

694
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: how many viable quarterbacks are there on a week to

695
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 1: week basis, because we start seeing injuries mount and those

696
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,959
Speaker 1: things thin out quickly, maybe giving you a trade opportunity.

697
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: And finally, I don't know what the deal is with

698
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Mike Tomlin says, Tuesday Wednesday will get a

699
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: better picture, you know, ask me that question. But justin fields,

700
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: wasn't earth shattering, a world beating, but maybe an opportunity

701
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: against a Denver defense on the road running back position,

702
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: Tank Bigsby had a pretty decent game for Jacksonville there

703
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: on the road at Cleveland or that home against Cleveland,

704
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 1: I should say, But twelve carries seventy three yards for him.

705
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 6: JK.

706
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:31,399
Speaker 1: Dobbins is going to be the bell of the ball.

707
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 1: Gus Edwards would have been the draft pick, and maybe

708
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: you shy it away, but take a look see in

709
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 1: your in your waiver wire. For Dobbins, two big runs

710
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 1: made up a lot of his effort. In Week one,

711
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: but one hundred and thirty five yards. This was a guy,

712
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: highly coveted, highly touted back in Baltimore, just hasn't been

713
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: able to stay healthy. So an opportunity there. We have

714
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 1: to say Mason's name just because yeah, right, yeah, take

715
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: a look. See, odds are he was rostered if you're

716
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,919
Speaker 1: in deeper leagues, but you know, you never can't tell

717
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,479
Speaker 1: Alexander Madison. Going back to Las Vegas for a minute,

718
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people excitable about Zamir White,

719
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 1: but you know, the average draft position of him told

720
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 1: you how much people were excited about a his potential

721
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 1: and be what they thought of the Raiders. He was

722
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: about the thirtieth running back drafted on average. So Madison

723
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 1: comes over from Minnesota, shows a little bit of something

724
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: you mentioned Bucky Irving earlier on as we were talking Dan.

725
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: You know he's a guy that Rashad White is the

726
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:42,359
Speaker 1: one for now, but a workload split certainly can play

727
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 1: out there as well, Isaiah likely going all the way

728
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 1: back to Thursday, odds are everybody's already put their claim in,

729
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,760
Speaker 1: but he was virtually unowned despite all of our attempts

730
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 1: to try to wear sandwich boards and support him before

731
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 1: the season.

732
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:58,919
Speaker 3: You were on it. You were on it for sure,

733
00:36:58,960 --> 00:36:59,760
Speaker 3: one hundred percent.

734
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:00,399
Speaker 6: All right.

735
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,919
Speaker 1: Finally, let's get a couple of wide outs in here.

736
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: Johnson and Robinson pick your poison for the Rams with

737
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: Nikua out Johnson five for seventy nine. Some think that Robinson,

738
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: DeMarcus Robinson will be the guy that picks up a

739
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,839
Speaker 1: larger part. Now it's just a matter of seeing if

740
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: you can win one off your free agent acquisition budget there.

741
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,759
Speaker 1: I think I leaned towards Robinson myself based on the

742
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: expectations Brandon Cooks while he's playing an upright for the

743
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: Cowboys four catches forty yards of touch on Jake Ferguson

744
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,240
Speaker 1: got hurt by the way as well. So that's another

745
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,919
Speaker 1: piece to the puzzle. As we look at the tight ends,

746
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: maybe you're looking towards the fun world of the split

747
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 1: tight end position in New Orleans and trying to pick

748
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: your poison there. You can go down that road if

749
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 1: you feel it, but otherwise, you know, we're looking at

750
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: trying to find some value here.

751
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 6: You've got the.

752
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 1: Raiders tight ends would have both been drafted Kolby Parkinson

753
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 1: was a guy we mentioned last week as a sleeper,

754
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 1: did have five targets, so potential for him to maybe

755
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 1: take on a role with the Rams as well. Higbe's

756
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: not expected back anytime soon, so opportunity perhaps there. And

757
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: then really it's slim pickens down down the line. That's

758
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,400
Speaker 1: where we start looking at the Noah Fance and others.

759
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 1: He had four targets in that game against Denver, but

760
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:34,879
Speaker 1: maybe a guy that can pick up a bigger role

761
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 1: as well. But that's a lot of mouths to feed

762
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 1: there in Seattle, so tough to think that on a

763
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 1: week to week basis, you're getting enough targets.

764
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, interesting spot with the Seahawks. I can tell you

765
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 3: that the dk Metcalf and Jackson Smith and Jigba performances

766
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 3: were anything but enticing. But they needed Kenneth Walker the

767
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 3: third in that second half, and that's what he brought him.

768
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 6: Got that big catch from Tyler Lockett though, so you

769
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 6: got that.

770
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, he got game ball for it too.

771
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 1: Yeah. I saw the video that was pretty good. The

772
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: final guy and this is the all right, let's just

773
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 1: recognize it for what it is. He may not be

774
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: viable with any other quarterback in the world, but Alan

775
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,839
Speaker 1: Lazard he got the freeb touchdown, but he also had

776
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 1: a pretty good target count, right, nine targets for the

777
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 1: Jets against San Francisco. I mean, he becomes the security

778
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 1: blanket for Aaron Rodgers, right. Garrett Wilson is.

779
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:29,919
Speaker 6: The world beater.

780
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: He's an you know, he's an ace. He is an

781
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 1: elite wide receiver. But you always need to have that

782
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 1: trusty checkdown number two guy, where you know where he is,

783
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 1: where you're gonna be able to move the sticks. You're

784
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: not gonna get to the you know, lofty eighty nine

785
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 1: and two stat line with regularity. But as long as

786
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 1: he's healthy, Lazard, I think you're probably gonna see six

787
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: to eight targets a week, So you know, on the

788
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 1: Ronco WR three, set it and forget it.

789
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 6: You could do worse.

790
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 3: When you look at Mike Williams, I'm sure he was taken,

791
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 3: yeah in drafts, but when you see that distribution, he

792
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 3: and hecked the Jets fan, I mean, yeah, go Eddian,

793
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 3: you know like I mean, like, are you like, gosh,

794
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 3: darn it, just throw just throw it to him. Are

795
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 3: you fine with Rogers just locking in on Wilson and

796
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 3: Lazard and Breese Hall for the entire game.

797
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 4: I was fine with whatever Rogers wanted to do. And

798
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 4: plus Williams is coming off a season ending injury. I

799
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,319
Speaker 4: think he tore his acl last year, so he's still

800
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 4: easing his way back in. For him to not really

801
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 4: be involved this week, I wasn't too shocked about it.

802
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 4: I actually do think down the line he's going to

803
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 4: become a much more reliable target. I do like what

804
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 4: you were saying about Alan Lazard though, Mike, because he

805
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 4: did kind of just fall into two touchdowns today and

806
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:46,439
Speaker 4: eighty nine yards not bad.

807
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean look in the end with Williams, we

808
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: watched it here in Los Angeles for years. There's going

809
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 1: to be a couple of games where he sets the

810
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: world a blaze. Right, can high point the ball as

811
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 1: well as anybody. I think for the Jets, he be comes,

812
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 1: for lack of a better comparison, let's cross sports. He

813
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:08,360
Speaker 1: becomes the power forward in the low post, turn and dunk. Yeah,

814
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: and I think for red zone purposes, assuming you're getting

815
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 1: to the red zone there, Ian he's gonna be a

816
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: guy that'll be a factor then. But riding him week

817
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 1: in week out, I think he's going to be a

818
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 1: tough order.

819
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:24,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's yucky for sure. It's yucky to own

820
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,319
Speaker 4: him and to start him. He even had a few

821
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 4: drops tonight, at least one agreed toous one on third down.

822
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 3: So well, there they are your waiver wire pickups to

823
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 3: get your set for Week two. I want to end

824
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 3: with some Survivor talk. Oh, let's go two points I

825
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 3: need to make. Not the TV show which debuts next week,

826
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 3: another season on CBS.

827
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,240
Speaker 6: What do we ad like fifty seven?

828
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 3: It's not fifty yet, but it's like forty seven forty

829
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,839
Speaker 3: eight because there's gonna be a fiftieth season coming up,

830
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 3: like not this season, but the next season. Again, it's

831
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 3: the only show my wife and I actually watch when

832
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 3: it airs. Oh wow, only one that everything else would

833
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 3: be DVRD. But it's the one that we watch live

834
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 3: Wednesday night's eight o'clock here on the West Coast. When

835
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,839
Speaker 3: I'm talking about Survivor pools, if you remember, on the

836
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 3: pod that dropped on Friday or Week one that we

837
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 3: taped on the Thursday night into Friday morning, we had

838
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 3: said some things, made some predictions, one of which was

839
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 3: I texted you guys on Friday that I was changing

840
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 3: my Panther Saints pick. You guys know why. I don't

841
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 3: need to announce it on this podcast, but tell you what,

842
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,239
Speaker 3: it's one of the smartest things I ever did. So

843
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 3: I ended up going with the Saints, and I apologize

844
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,879
Speaker 3: for giving any Panthers direction, but I also said at

845
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,360
Speaker 3: the time, take the Bengals are your safe pick in

846
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,920
Speaker 3: the survivor pool. And if you ever had that epiphany,

847
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,359
Speaker 3: Mike where you're just like, oh my gosh, I didn't

848
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 3: see it. I didn't see it until now, like my goodness,

849
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 3: And I explained this on the Sunday Show. That's how

850
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,920
Speaker 3: we felt Friday with the Bengals, Like, why in the

851
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 3: world would I think that they'd be ready to play

852
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 3: for a football game when all we've been talking about

853
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 3: all off season are their wide receivers wanting more money

854
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 3: and that's not focused on a championship. And t Higgins

855
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 3: pops up on the injury report and you have Jamar

856
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,440
Speaker 3: Chase limited, Higgins is considered then doubtful. We find out

857
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 3: later on Friday. I completely went the other way. Not

858
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,479
Speaker 3: that I thought the Patriots would actually win the game,

859
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 3: but in terms of covering the spread, I'm like, give

860
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:25,879
Speaker 3: me New England, you.

861
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 1: Know, well getting the seven and a half or or

862
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,720
Speaker 1: whatever it was. Yeah, depending on where you're shopping.

863
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,239
Speaker 3: Then they go out and they win the game and

864
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 3: destroying survivor pools the big circa you know, fourteen million

865
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:45,799
Speaker 3: dollars pool right, thirty four point three percent head Cincinnati. Wow,

866
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 3: thirty four percent done by four o'clock Eastern time. They

867
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:56,280
Speaker 3: started with fourteen thousand, two hundred entries. I believe fourteen

868
00:43:56,320 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 3: two oh six was the actual number. Four thousand, eight

869
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:04,920
Speaker 3: and ninety five went out with that one. Falcons were

870
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 3: the next one out of only three percent four hundred

871
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 3: and thirty one entries. But that's what the Bengals lost

872
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:15,239
Speaker 3: did in survivor pools. People were saved by your Bears comeback, Mike,

873
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 3: the Bills come back against the Cardinals. That that was

874
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 3: a big sigh of relief for some. The Dolphins wasn't

875
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 3: maybe a game that you would normally pick, but they

876
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,800
Speaker 3: had a comeback to keep some entries. But yeah, thirty

877
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 3: four percent of survivor pools. And by the way, that

878
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 3: number is for pools that I'm in and others that

879
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 3: I've talked to. It's around anywhere from thirty to thirty

880
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:39,879
Speaker 3: five percent with the Bengals getting knocked out.

881
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: So that's just pretty amazing. Yeah, But I mean just

882
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,200
Speaker 1: a great job defensively. But all the noise, right, it's

883
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 1: all about We talked about it Smith and I a

884
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,239
Speaker 1: little on the Monday Show as the Monday Night game

885
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,880
Speaker 1: was wrapping. You know, two very different ways of noise

886
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 1: being handled, right. The Jets created a bunch kind of

887
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 1: talking up their defense, talking up all the the return

888
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: and the expectations with Rogers, and they got run over

889
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 1: forty nine ers. Everybody wondering, ow is it going to work? Well,

890
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,880
Speaker 1: they paid their two guys. Sure, So while it was

891
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,760
Speaker 1: eleventh hour and whatever, they came out and handled business likewise.

892
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones handed Dak Prescott a giant check. All's right

893
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:22,320
Speaker 1: with the world with the Bengals, same old money management.

894
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 1: You did mention the Bears saving folks on the Survivor week.

895
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,040
Speaker 1: You just got to give Ian the nod, right because

896
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 1: his you know, pickup and streamer d for the week

897
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 1: and week one of the pod was the Bears and

898
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 1: you want to talk about putting up a fantasy point

899
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:44,759
Speaker 1: total depending on scoring. Look, they were first regardless, but

900
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 1: for some that helped you overcome some of the crappy

901
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 1: performances by quarterbacks or non starters elsewhere.

902
00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 3: I started the Bears Bears one of my leagues, and

903
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,760
Speaker 3: if I didn't start the Bears, I likely would have lost.

904
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 6: So good work.

905
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 3: I Ian Roddy won for one.

906
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 4: And you only started them because I advised you.

907
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 3: Absolutely absolutely, you know you made the recommendation. I think

908
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 3: I did say on the pod that I would stream

909
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 3: them in week one, but I'm keeping them for for

910
00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 3: as long as forever.

911
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 4: So that's the fun thing about week one is you

912
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 4: kind of have guys defenses on the waiver wire that

913
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:24,799
Speaker 4: shouldn't necessarily be there, and that.

914
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,799
Speaker 1: Is that one didn't seem like it should have been there.

915
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 1: I just got to say rosted leagues though they were

916
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:31,240
Speaker 1: you know, shocker.

917
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, well, good work, good work all around. Harmon

918
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 3: nail Josh Allen is the top quarterback for UH for

919
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:39,040
Speaker 3: Week one.

920
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 1: I got Nailer in as a sleeper. That was the

921
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 1: one that I was most proud of. Good one, not

922
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:45,640
Speaker 1: a big day, but he found the end zone.

923
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you what you know, Tyreek Hill, you

924
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 3: know obviously the top five, but you also had Mike Evans.

925
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 3: So you had Mike Evans in your top five. He

926
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 3: was borderline, so he was he was right there that

927
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 3: he was five or six. So that was a good

928
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 3: call on on one, not Mike Evans. And uh yeah,

929

937
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,279
Speaker 3: catches for the forty nine ers on Monday Night.

938
