14
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: buff up my Nick Cage movie collection and a family member.

15
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Yeah, Nick Cage movies. Nick Cage is a

16
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 1: as a national treasure pun intended, and uh, people wanted

17
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: to dive into his U cinema library. So I got

18
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 1: he got me a five pack. Uh, and it's blue

19
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: rays that included like Thrive, Angry of the Witch, Um Bangkok, Dangerous,

20
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: Lord of War and kick Ass Where the Five. So

21
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: it was a good hall right there. That is a

22
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: train wreck of movies. Beautiful disaster. It sounds like a

23
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: cage fight in the mat in the making. Okay, okay,

24
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 1: I got you all right? Uh MG, what's your best

25
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: Christmas gift? Man? Um? Well it's a good call um.

26
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: You know. By the way, it's funny that you mentioned that, Wiz,

27
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: because I was just having this conversation with um with

28
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: one of my in laws the other day. When you're younger,

29
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: you're so stoked about Christmas for getting the gifts right.

30
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: But you know you're getting older when you start to

31
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: expect gifts less and less. I'm at the age now

32
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: where I'm like, I'm not sure I'm gonna get one,

33
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean that even from the wife.

34
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: Huh yeah, I mean she because she'll give me stuff

35
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: like hey, hey here's uh, here's a new trash can

36
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: because we really need it. You know everybody, right, you

37
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like that's and so you know,

38
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: but heaven forbid, I do the exact same thing. I

39
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: would say. Mine. It's a toss up between the the

40
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: Star Wars Stormtrooper pajamas or the because lately my family

41
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: has been on this kick and I'm not complaining of

42
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: giving me cookbooks for a cookbooks yeah, um, and so

43
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: one of them when I said I got this year

44
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: was basically recipes for making meals in bowls because most

45
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: of the meals I eat her out of a bowl. Yeah,

46
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: well that's the way to go. So I got a

47
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: recipe about meals and bowls and then to go along

48
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: with it a set of matching bowls. Oh okay, Well

49
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: is it coffee table material that those cookbooks? Because I

50
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: mean there is something called the internet. Um, I mean

51
00:02:58,600 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 1: some of them are, but you know stuff. There's so

52
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: think cool about like having cookbooks along the theme, like

53
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 1: I have have a really nice Cuban cookbook I have,

54
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: I have a New Orleans themed cookbook. I've got this

55
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: one about foods and bowls. Also, I will I was

56
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: just gonna say in defensive cookbooks, it's a lot easier

57
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: to have it in the kitchen. Here's the recipe, not

58
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: like laptop. Don't get anything on because when I try to,

59
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: when I try to use my phone for recipes, I'm

60
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: always like worried about him to drop it into the

61
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: plot that phone falls asleep and then I was hitting

62
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: it with your wrist like trying to like wake it

63
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: back up to get the recipe up. I got you. Now,

64
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: That's that's the most knowing thing, fair enough, Matt Harmon, Yeah,

65
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: I got a lot. I got a lot of pretty

66
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: cool stuff. My mom got me the the Alexa, the

67
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: Amazon thing. Yeah, so far though I haven't really found

68
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: out like there's almost the full uses for it. But

69
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: it is pretty cool to yell at it, like, hey,

70
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: play this song on Spotify and it just does not

71
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: our apartment, you know. I just coming out of the

72
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: rule of them. Yeah, I mean, I've completely just submitted

73
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: to the fact that our robot overlords are going to

74
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: rule over my living domain and whatever. I am trying

75
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: to get on their good side early before they started

76
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: imprisoning us three years so so that's probably the coolest one.

77
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: And but my mom did and and her breaking news

78
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: fiance now Steve aged on Christmas, which is pretty corny

79
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 1: but very wonderful for them. Uh, they hit the I

80
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: don't know much about Steve, but that seems up his alley. Yeah, no,

81
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: it's it was not. When when she told me, I

82
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, that's pretty par for the course for Steve. Um.

83
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: But but they sent me a whole bunch of Nike

84
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: stuff because they just opened up a clearance outlet by

85
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: the house and like apparently they got a bunch of

86
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: stuff for dirty. So I got a lot of workout

87
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: to lose all this fat from Christmas. Okay, Well that

88
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: was that was hard. That was that was That's how

89
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: you got to motivate yourself, that shame yourself. Yeah, best

90
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,359
Speaker 1: gift I got was a GoPro. My wife got me

91
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: the go pro. Gonna be utilizing that on baby Colt

92
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 1: relatively sooner. That smart can I borrow that I haven't

93
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: I haven't used I haven't even cracked it open yet.

94
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: But above the trash can uh it goes? That is true.

95
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: We got a big time showing firm of us here today. Um. Look,

96
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: it's championship week has basically finished last today. I mean,

97
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 1: although there are some serious assets going today, you know

98
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: what I mean. Uh, you got Zeke Elliott and dek

99
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 1: Prescott those kind of things, and I get it. Um.

100
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 1: That being said, most championships, I would imagine are done

101
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: in the books. If you play in week seventeen don't

102
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 1: and then and that's what I was saying, so you know,

103
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: and again, we could do the whole Week seventeen waiver.

104
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna get to waiver wire, but we

105
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: could do all that. But I mean, you know, we'll

106
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: we'll still get your top headlines and do way for

107
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 1: wire and all that, but it will make one quick

108
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: case for playing in week seventeen. No no, no no, no no, no,

109
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: no, no no no no. Hold on, now, Look, the fantasy

110
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: season is short enough to begin with. Like we were

111
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: all over here complaining, like, oh my god, it's been

112
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: so long. We look forward to it every year. A

113
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: lot of fun. Don't hold your championship in Week seventeen.

114
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: And if you're in the league that you know rewards

115
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 1: winners or people that place a certain uh position with

116
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 1: like cookies or something for instance, play Week seventeen for

117
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: total points. You can say money because other people can

118
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: play for money. That's true. When it's like my league

119
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: of record, we do that. Our championship was in Week sixteen.

120
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: Um my fellow firefighter that works with my dad, Kevin,

121
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: won the league. Congrats Kevin. But we still play out

122
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: Week seventeen for total points standings and like whoever wins

123
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: the week gets ten bucks and stuff like that, because

124
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 1: then then it's meaningless as the games are for the

125
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: overall standings. But like you can still play for fun

126
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: and start your lineup and you know, tilt through Sunday

127
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 1: one last time. That's that's completely different than having a championship.

128
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: Some say you can get the best of boast for

129
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: both worlds and your actual season on Week sixteen, but

130
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,359
Speaker 1: hate your positive have something as something to play for

131
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: in positivity in gosh, we're gonna talk about comeback Player

132
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,239
Speaker 1: of the Year. Will make a case for Melvin Gordon,

133
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson, Davante Adams, Jadie McCoy into Marco Murray. We'll

134
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: talk about bust of the spoiler alert, Cam Newton, Nuke,

135
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall, Todd Gurley. I'm gonna make an interesting case

136
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: about Todd Gurley here not being Bust of the Year.

137
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: We'll get to your daily depths. We're gonna hit the

138
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,720

00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,239
Speaker 1: And there was another broken fibula as well in Seattle.

155
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: Will get to that in a moment. But Derek Carr

156
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: Mariota both gone. Obviously. I hope they get right for seventeen.

157
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: They're just it's so brutal because they're both seemingly good

158
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 1: guys in this league. Uh, good young prospects, and they

159
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 1: really developed well uh in their respective year. So uh,

160
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: definitely hope they get right. But what does it mean

161
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: four week seventeen for that Oakland offense, Marcus Grant, Um,

162
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: you know, I still think you can You're obviously you're

163
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: not starting Matt mccloyan, let's just stuck there. But but

164
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: but but I think I think I can still have

165
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: a relative level of faith in at least Cooper and

166
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: Crabtree that he's going to get the ball to the

167
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: playmakers there. Um, I mean, considering those guys have both

168
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: been very up and down all season long as it is,

169
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you still kind of ride with

170
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: them the same way you would and hope that this

171
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: is a positive week here. Um. You know, I'm looking

172
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: at us, I know we're talking the Titans, and and

173
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: you know, I feel I feel weird because this is

174
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: Rose Bowl week and you've got Penn States Matt mcgloyd

175
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: versus USC s Matt Castle, and I feel like I

176
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: should kind of ride with Matt Castle. But in my heart,

177
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 1: I know, I get my brain, I know I just can't.

178
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: I can't pick Castle over mcgloyd. Um, intellectually, but my

179
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: heart says, you know, I like it. Go Maddie Castle,

180
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 1: Go Maddie Castle. There you go. What does it mean

181
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 1: for the Titans? Offense, Matt Harmon, Well, this is I

182
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: think Matt Castle is way worse of an option than

183
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: Matt mcgloyn at this point. I think Castle has been

184
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 1: cooked for a few years now, and I think overall,

185
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: you know, they they'll just they'll probably just run the

186
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: ball a ton and the wide receivers and Delaney Walker

187
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: will be who really the only relevant receiver was Richard Matthews,

188
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 1: who you know, really somewhat quietly probably from the outside,

189
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: maybe not in fantasy as much, but has had a

190
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: really good, effective, pretty much breakout campaign. There is no

191
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: way the casual fan knows who Richard Mathews. I would

192
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: that That's exactly what I'm you know, that's what I'm saying.

193
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: Players know who Richard Matthews is, but just like the

194
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: general football public probably does not. Yeah, I mean, I

195
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: don't even know if the general Tennessee Titan fanoms, but

196
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 1: he's been but he's been very very good. A lot

197
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: of touchdowns, a lot of touchdowns. He's pretty much usurped

198
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: the number one receiver roll out right there. But I

199
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: so I think those guys will probably have a tough

200
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 1: go of it there in Week seventeen, as the Titans

201
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: run heavy approach. I mean they're already utilizing and run

202
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: heavy approach, so I guess that would make a whole

203
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: pack of a lot of sense. In Seattle, Tyler Lockett

204
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: broke his fibula antibia. Uh what was it? Pete Carroll

205
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 1: told reporters that the bone may have broken through the skin.

206
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: Did they're watching out for infection? You did? Oh? My god? Uh.

207
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: He's likely obviously to miss significant time. I saw that

208
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: he probably won't be walking, uh, anywhere between four to

209
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: eight weeks. So you know, obviously it could mean that

210
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: he misses a large portion. I mean, obviously it's gonna

211
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: miss entire offseason. Will he miss time into training camp?

212
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: We shall see. Carlos High torn m c yell. He's

213
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: out for week seventeen. Sean Drone. I don't know how

214
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 1: to spell his name ever. But it was just an

215
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: mcl sprain, right, not torn. I thought it was a tear,

216
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: was it not? They corrected it. I thought this morning

217
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: I saw and it was not a tear. I don't

218
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: think it so it doesn't it doesn't need surgery. I see,

219
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: I thought, I thought, I think it wasn't. The original

220
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: report that he had a oh no, You're right, it

221
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: is a m C. I think they originally feared that

222
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: or that was the original report, but then after Mr.

223
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: E s or whatever, they said it was just a sprain.

224
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: So it's not need surgery. Good news for his long

225
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: term out look for next year, not needing surgery and stuff.

226
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: But he'll still be out all right, Sean dron in

227
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: Week seventeen. Anyone want that? No, I want Duwan Harris

228
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: if I have to. It's a good point. Duwan Harris

229
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: did play quite well in relief duties, especially as a

230
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: pass catcher. That's true. He's uh, he's the guy who's

231
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: popped easy for me to say, popped across a couple

232
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: of places in the last few years, Green Bay in Minnesota.

233
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: But he's uh, he's you know, you don't like to

234
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: use the term violent, but he's a violent runner. He's fast,

235
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 1: he's decisive. So he'd be the guy that I want,

236
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: especially as a volume play maybe in dfest and stuff

237
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: for Weeks seventeen over Shag Dragon Thomas rawl shoulder injury.

238
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: What do you have? Eight yards Championship? I think so,

239
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: Alex Collins, you did a nice little write up about him,

240
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: whiz Kid tell us about Alex Collins, well, I mean

241
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: he's a rookie at Arkansas and uh Arkansas, right. It

242
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: was him and yep and the dude in Jonathan Williams

243
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: in Buffalo. But I mean he came in and looked okay.

244
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: The Seahawks were behind, so there weren't many backfield opportunities

245
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: to be had because they were playing catch up so much.

246
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,839
Speaker 1: But if they sit Rawles knowing they're already in the

247
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: playoffs and you know, wanting to save him for that,

248
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of depth there. Other than other

249
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: than Colins, they might activate one of those other guys,

250
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: Farmer or Tremaine Pope. I think one of them is injured.

251
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 1: One of himself. Tremaine Pope had an ankle injury. I

252
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: knew one of them was, but wasn't sure if he.

253
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: Collins could be a nice volume play next week though,

254
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 1: because they do play the forty niners. Give me some

255
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: of that. Doug Martin was a healthy scratch status for

256
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: Week seventeen unclear. We don't still have any idea why

257
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 1: Doug Martin was ruled inactive for that game. It wasn't,

258
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: but we do know this, it wasn't because of injury,

259
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 1: a lot of controversy there in Tampa Bay. What's up

260
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,359
Speaker 1: with that? I don't want any parts of this backfield.

261
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: Just I was just gonna ask MG, because do you

262
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: still ride Jaquiz Rogers or what do you do it?

263
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: For weeks seven? Yeah? I just I don't have any

264
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: faith And just because I don't, we don't know how

265
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 1: the touches are going to be divvied up in this thing.

266
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,199
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously this week was kind of the Jaquiz

267
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: Rodgers week, but who knows, maybe next week because the

268
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: Charles Simms week. I mean, you know, basically you had

269
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: Dirk Cutter out here intimating that they had four running backs.

270
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: That means Peyton Barber potentially is still in Barbara. There's

271
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: just so many unknowns and so many variables here that

272
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 1: it's hard to have confidence in any one guy in

273
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: that backfield. I will say this, though, if Rogers does

274
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: get the start out right over Martin, I would consider him.

275
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he averaged four point three yards per carry

276
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: in the four games where he was the featured back,

277
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: including this one. Doug Martin. I think party got benched

278
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: because he wasn't producing a lot the average two point

279
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: eight yards per Terry since returning in week ten. Uh,

280
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: that's that's hard to to move an offense when you're

281
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: averaging two point eight yards per Gary. To your point,

282
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: Dirk Cutter said that special teams was a big reason

283
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: as to why they activated Peyton Barber. Peyton Barber and

284
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: Charles Simms. Looking at snap counts now for Tampa Bay,

285
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: Jacqui was Rogers had thirty seven, Charles Simms had twenty three,

286
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: Peyton Barber had zero on the offensive side. But again,

287
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: Peyton Barber does play a little bit of special teams there.

288
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: So so Doug Martin next year is he gonna be

289
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: back with the team because he just signed a contract.

290
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. I think they have to just

291
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: contractually money wise salary cap. I don't. I don't see

292
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: how you can possibly cut him and they have that

293
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: much dead money. They want to be a run first

294
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: team too. I mean, Martin never had lower than sixteen

295
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: carries once he returned from injury, and he had over

296
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: twenty over twenty three or twenty three or more three times.

297
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: Doug Martin's on the every other year plan? Does he compare?

298
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: I wasn't Peyton Barber to back up what Cutter said,

299
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: did play sixteen special teams plays, Alan Cross played fourteen sims,

300
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: did not play any Okay, there you go. Week sixteen.

301
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but I do I agree with you. I

302
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: want no piece of Doug Martin. I want no piece

303
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: of Chuck was Rogers. I don't know what's gonna happen.

304
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: Peyton Barber could get a little extra time with the

305
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: week weeks worth of preparation. It's gonna be ugly. I

306
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: wonder if Doug was just never right coming back after

307
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: his injury, Like he was healthy, possible, healthy and cleared,

308
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: but you know, just lost a little something and it

309
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: was wearing him down with all those touches, like you said,

310
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: Ham with fifteen plus in every every game, Like maybe

311
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: that's maybe that was contributing to it. My be true.

312
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 1: Tyler Eifert placed on I R. He's not gonna play

313
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 1: Week seventeen. Uh. Kenneth Farrell also placed on I R.

314
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: Gordon Melvin Gordon is day to day. Don't know what

315
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: his status will be for Week seventeen. Old I am

316
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: if he I like, I hope he gets his thousand yards.

317
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 1: That's what it is. That's what it is. He I'm

318
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: looking for that benchmark. I wouldn't play him in fantasy. Yeah,

319
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 1: that's pretty tough. All right, there you go. Let's talk

320
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 1: about the waiver wire. Alex Gelhar writes a weekly piece.

321
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: Uh gosh, this is the last one up. Hell's the

322
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: last one, Yes, the last one, baby, let's go. Well,

323
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: like you said, it's just it's kind of just. Alex

324
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: Conson was trying to find some flyers and we, uh,

325
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: we didn't talk about this a lot when we were

326
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: just hitting at the Marcus or the Mariota and car injuries.

327
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: But that three headed committee in Oakland reared its head again.

328
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: I know, DeAndre Washington all of a sudden looks good,

329
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: looks really good, really good. Jalen Richard looked good on

330
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: his touchdown receptions. Something said, everyone looks good against the Colts.

331
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: That's rich. But I think these guys could both potentially

332
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: be in play, especially if they look to try to

333
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: not throw a lot into the teeth of that Denver defense.

334
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 1: Because I was on the road in Denver, so I

335
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: think these guys could be like in deeper leagues, if

336
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: you're still playing, it could be a little They could

337
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: be flex options you just get in there. I was

338
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: on full tilt because I have Latavius Murray. Uh and

339
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: they gave it to him a couple of times down there,

340
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, oh Man, and he just

341
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: could not punch it in I don't believe It's not

342
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: that the coaching staff, Jack del Rio, I don't think

343
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 1: they've lost faith in Latavious Murray. I mean, they still

344
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: gave it to him in those gold Ghost situations. It

345
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: just he just couldn't punch it. He led the team

346
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: and snaps and touches too in that backfield. But it's

347
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,679
Speaker 1: just they like what the other guys bringing the table too.

348
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: They said all offseason that they they thought they needed

349
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: more options to go along with Murray. And then you

350
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 1: know these rookies like DeAndre Washington was a healthy scratch

351
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago there for two weeks in

352
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 1: a row, I think. So you know, they don't have

353
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: like a many points, did not have a clear number

354
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 1: two runner, but they might now and then as for

355
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: wide receivers, I think it's it's smart to chase the

356
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 1: volume in production of guys like Adam Delan, Cameron Meredith

357
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 1: and seeing a ton of talk argue it's J. J.

358
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,959
Speaker 1: Nelson is you know, he's inconsistent, but he's delivering at

359
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: least a touchdown over the last like five weeks or so.

360
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: The Jags number one wide receiver Marquis Lee available in

361
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: twenty of weeks. He's also their number one quarterback. Yeah

362
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 1: you can, Okay, you can. You can say he's the

363
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: number one quarterback. You're just being disingenuous if you say

364
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 1: he's the number one, A rise out of you. And

365
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: I think Charles Clay, I mean, the dude has been

366
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: on fire the last couple of weeks. You guys laughed

367
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: at me when I said Charles Clay, oh yeah right, yeah, No,

368
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: for sure, I'll cop to being wrong on that one.

369
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: He helped me in a third place game in one league.

370
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: The man six seven and ten targets the last three weeks.

371
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 1: Where is that franchise drop? Brother? You deserve it, right,

372
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 1: you absolutely, that's the fiery phoning. Yes, franchise lives in spirits.

373
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't really want to tap dance over

374
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: being right on Charles Clay. But whatever, and then, hey,

375
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: hey man, that was legit. If you haven't done anything

376
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: until you came on board with him. If you're desperate.

377
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 1: Tom Savage could stream him with Tommy Savage stream him

378
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: against the Titans. They the bo man. The Titans just

379
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 1: revived Blake Bortles exactly. They just they just reviveda Bartles.

380
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: Mark Easlee is dropping dimes on them, and Bell O'Brien said,

381
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: the Texts are gonna play their starters, so like they

382
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: need this offense to get into a rhythm, and he

383
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: could go out and sling it. So it's a good point.

384
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 1: By the way, they can't afford to sit people. I

385
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 1: love the fact that that they have to address that

386
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,679
Speaker 1: the Texans. I love the fact that the Texans have

387
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 1: to address whether or not they're going to play. Dude,

388
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: resting you guys suck. Resting stop, You're not gonna rest

389
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: your guys, dude resting starters. Twitter is out of control

390
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: this year. People people were calling out the Raiders for

391
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: having even in that game with eleven minutes, What are

392
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: you throwing the ball and what like? You don't get it,

393
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: Like everybody is not Andy Reid. You don't get a

394
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: two touchdown lead and then sit on it for an

395
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: entire game. It doesn't work like that. They're eleven minutes

396
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 1: left in the game. You can't just take the starting

397
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: quarterback out of there. Like then you gotta start talking like,

398
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: where's you know, where's the line with all of these

399
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: college players sitting out bowl games? Where the hell is

400
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: the line with people's pull starters out of out of games?

401
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 1: It's it's it's outrageous. And to think that the Cowboys

402
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,719
Speaker 1: could then pull starters in this game and then go

403
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 1: three weeks without playing a meaningful football game with a

404
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: bunch of rookies, it's insane. It's it's you're out of control.

405
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: Rest your starters. Twitter, You're out of control. I don't

406
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,640
Speaker 1: get it. I do not get it. Yeah, let's go,

407
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: all right, it's Fantasy Award season. Let's go. We're gonna

408
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: start with Comeback Player of the Year. We're gonna start

409
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: with positivity, and then we'll go into the dark side. Okay, right, uh,

410
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: come Back Player of the Year. Here's your nominees. I

411
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 1: want you guys to vote. Okay, Melvin Gordon, Jordy Nelson,

412
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,199
Speaker 1: Davante Adams, shading McCoy to Marco Murray. Will start with

413
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 1: the resume for Melvin Gordon. He's your RB seven on

414
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 1: the year thus far, he's got still, by the way,

415
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 1: still your RB seven, Still a top ten running back.

416
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 1: He's got fourteen hundred and sixteen total yards, He's got

417
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: twelve total touchdowns. Come Back player of the year because

418
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 1: in he was booty eight hundred and thirty three total

419
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: yards and very infamously scored zero touchdowns despite playing what

420
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: third start, starting thirteen games I think last year, uh,

421
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: double digit games for sure. I think he played fifteen

422
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 1: games last year, had zero touchdowns. Highly regarded high draft

423
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: pick out of Wisconsin. Everyone said he was a bust in.

424
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 1: Nobody wanted a piece of him in twenty sixteen, and

425
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: here he is racking up fourteen hundred total yards and

426
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 1: twelve touchdowns. Jordy Nelson, your wide receiver two by a

427
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: whopping point two points happen regard even if he was

428
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 1: even if he was number five. It's really it is

429
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 1: remarkable to see Jordy Nelson that high. Nearly twelve hundred yards,

430
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: fourteen touchdowns leading Hello, Uh, he was going somewhere in

431
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: the late second, early third round of most famis to

432
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 1: um and and not saying that he vastly outperformed his

433
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 1: ADP because he was still going pretty high. But keep

434
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 1: in mind this guy that didn't even play football last year,

435
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: Davante Adams. This is my pick. This is my pick,

436
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,959
Speaker 1: and this is the reason why he's the wide receiver

437
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: nine top ten wide receiver, nine hundred and sixty six yards.

438
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: He's got double digit touchdowns, He's got touchdowns. Last year

439
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: he had four hundred and three total yards and a

440
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:32,199
Speaker 1: single touchdown. And he was I mean the most he

441
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: was booty. He was he was the most booty. He

442
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: was the most biggest booty. I'll tell you. I mean,

443
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: he was just getting ripped to shreds in the media

444
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 1: and by fantasy enthusiasts everywhere. Can I just add, because

445
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: I've got consensus ADP from the off season, Davonte Adams

446
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 1: wide receiver sixty a DP two six overall. Some wide

447
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 1: receivers that were ahead of him, Terence Williams, Philip dor said,

448
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: Other boyd Danny Amendla, the Kwan Treadwell, Victor Cruz, Josh

449
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: Dos and Doyle Greenbeckham, all of these makes sense. All

450
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 1: of these No, but here's all of those things makes sense. Fink,

451
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson was coming back, and Sidel Cobb was gonna

452
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: be there. I mean, Cragvante Adams looked terrible. Uh there

453
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 1: was some you know, preseason buzz surrounding you know, look,

454
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: we saw Jeff Janis go crazy in the playoffs. Is

455
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: he going to supplant Davonte Adams in the starting line up?

456
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 1: There were actually put reports in the Green Bay media

457
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 1: that he might be on the roster bubble. Remember, yeah,

458
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 1: I remember moaning in the preseason that, like these guys

459
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: couldn't stay on message, like half the b writers, like

460
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: he looked great. Roger still believes him half the more,

461
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: Like he's gonna cut. That's just how unclear the situation was.

462
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: I love that he was drafted behind la Kwan Treadwell,

463
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: who has one more catch than any of us in

464
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: this room combined. Oh my god, what happened to the quanto?

465
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: It's a good offseason discussions, the discussion for later. A

466
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 1: lot of Twitter jokes on Sunday Night about Cody Core,

467
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: his former who who the hell is Cody Core? Like

468
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:07,119
Speaker 1: his former Ole Miss teammates got fourteen targets from Shandy McCoy.

469
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 1: He's got twelve fifty seven rush three fifty receiving that

470
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: sixteen hundred and seven total yards, sixteen hondo for Shady McCoy.

471
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 1: He's got fourteen total touchdowns, thirteen of them on the ground,

472
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: this following a twenty fifteen where he had eight nine

473
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: five on the ground, two nine two through the air,

474
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 1: so he had eleven eighties seven total decent yardage wise,

475
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: but he only had five total touchdowns last year. Remember

476
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: when it was a big storyline last year that he

477
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 1: could not get into the end zone, And remember that,

478
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,719
Speaker 1: do you guys remember that first touchdown he's he did

479
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 1: not actually score where he scored it. He unlocked the bank,

480
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 1: took that money out and then there was a penalty on.

481
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 1: It was great, it was terrific. Then there's DeMarco Murray

482
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: twelve sixty six on the ground, three seventy nine through

483
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 1: the year, he's got sixteen forty five total. He's got

484
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: twelve total touchdowns this far, following a disasters where he

485
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 1: had seven hundred at two rushing yards three two receiving yards,

486
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,679
Speaker 1: so a thousand, twenty five total yards. So he's got

487
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: more than six hundred yards more this year than he

488
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: did last year, and he had seven total touchdowns last year.

489
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: Um and man, everyone said to Marco was washed. Yep, Yes,

490
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: everyone I was so wrong about pretty much everyone's like

491
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, who exactly that job by midyear. Yep, boy,

492
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 1: do the Eagles look bad too for giving him away.

493
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: You can obviously not rip on Chip Kelly for mismanaging

494
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: the situation and all that, YadA YadA, But then in

495
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: the off season Eagles couldn't get him out of town

496
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: fast enough for like a swap in a fourth round

497
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: pick or something like that. Right Uh, And that offense

498
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: right now would look very nice with DeMarco Murray leading

499
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 1: the backfield. Alright, So gentlemen, you vote, tell me who

500
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: is it that you like for comeback players the year.

501
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Jordy Nelson, Uh, partially because for

502
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 1: a couple of these guys, guys like Melvin Gordon and

503
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: Davante Adams. To me, it comes down to the definition

504
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: of comeback player. Uh. That suggests that you have done

505
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,439
Speaker 1: it at a high level, then faded back, and then

506
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 1: return have come back. So I think so for me

507
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 1: that that just qualifies Gordon and Davante Adams. And I

508
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: think you know, when you compare Jordy to Shady and

509
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: DeMarco um his his bounce back from last year, I

510
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: was being hurt and not playing a down during the

511
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: regular season, basically giving you, you know, having zero compared

512
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: to what he's doing now that that makes him the

513
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: winner for me, Matt Harmon, uh see. And I'm gonna

514
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: go the other direction because while in real life football,

515
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: I agree that comeback Player of the Year should be

516
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 1: like you came back from something, not you came back

517
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: from sucking. I don't think that, but but I also

518
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 1: want to go the other way just to underscore the

519
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: nebulous rules of these of these awards even and there's

520
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: no the best part of it. And I'm actually gonna

521
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: go with Melvin Gordon, who was you know, worthless in

522
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 1: fantasy last year, never scored a touchdown. We know that,

523
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: Uh consensus ADP had him at running back twenty three

524
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: and our site had him at thirty one, the lowest

525
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 1: on the source that I'm looking at right now. Uh

526
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: And that is just outrageous value to get from drafting

527
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: running back there who was essentially round was he going in?

528
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 1: And like, oh, like just for context, I remember we

529
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: did our one of our league drafts and Franchise took

530
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: him I think I think in the fourth round and

531
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,879
Speaker 1: got laughed out of the room that was fourth or

532
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: fifth and like Fabiana let him rapping other people. Fabs

533
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 1: went to town on on drafting hit When when when

534
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: Franchise went and drafted him in the sixth round on

535
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: like our periscope or something that even might have even

536
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: been later, And yeah, Fabs really let him have it

537
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 1: for that one. And it's like you're getting I mean,

538
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 1: you're getting an outrageous return on your investment there. He's

539
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: also a good illustration of you know why you you

540
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: know why you can draft you R r B teams

541
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 1: and also like the just the general chaos that running

542
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: backs can uh can can benefit from because quite frankly,

543
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: Danny Woodhead doesn't get hurt. Melvin Gordon's not having this season.

544
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: He's having a good season, but he's not having this

545
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 1: kind of fantasy season. It's probably a good point. Well,

546
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,400
Speaker 1: I know, we know, I'm I'm a I'm a packer homer,

547
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 1: but I have to go with Jordian Nelson's just just

548
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: for the pure fact of when we look at the

549
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: numbers of what he did this season, Jordy Nelson was

550
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,640
Speaker 1: like Eric Decker last year on steroids with how consistent

551
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 1: he was for your fantasy lineup. He only had two

552
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: weeks with fewer than eight Fantasy points, and every other

553
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 1: top receiver Brown, Odell Evans Hill near the top, you know,

554
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 1: four to seven of those kind of seasons. Jordy was

555
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: just the most consistent guy. He's gotten better as the

556
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: year has gone on, and he's gotten healthier, and like it,

557
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: you know it. It's it's been a great example of

558
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: all that handwringing over such a great player, but he's

559
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: he's just simply been tremendous and fantasy and anybody have him.

560
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: I know Marcus just is going to knock on would

561
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: win a Fantasy championship unless Jason waved game for the

562
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: Ages and uh and d Nelson was a big part

563
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: of your success. So I just think the fact that

564
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: he was at such a high level, came back from

565
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 1: a serious injuries in his early thirties and returned to

566
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: such a high level as why we have to why

567
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: I would give it to him. You could also make

568
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: the argument he's comeback player of the year from just

569
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: the middle of the season. I mean, James co read

570
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: his eulage because he weren't alone and you weren't alone.

571
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: After that Thursday night game against the Bears where had

572
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: one catch for nine yards. Those are his bat of Dames.

573
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,719
Speaker 1: The Dallas game he had sixty eight yards and a fumble,

574
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: and then Chicago he had nine yards and he was

575
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: and then he was next game, ninety four in a

576
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: touch game, after nine in a touch game, after one

577
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,240
Speaker 1: six in a touch So you know what, You're welcome.

578
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: You're welcome. And to give your poor Green Bay you're welcome.

579
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 1: And anyone who had Jordy Nelson in fantasy, you're welcome. Yeah,

580
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: to give your poor packer, you know, the persecuted packers

581
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: some credit here. Uh Like they really actually must have

582
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 1: heard James podcast and been like, look, look we gotta

583
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 1: do something with Jordian Nelson, because after that game they

584
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 1: started moving him around more, having him play in the slot,

585
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: and it's like separation scores really increased. So yeah, definitely

586
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: big big ups to them for helping Jordy out to

587
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: make James look like an idiot. Oh my gosh, I

588
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 1: love it. Like I said, I will vote for Davante

589
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: Adams only because last year, holy well, because here's the thing.

590
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: He goes from huge bust because last year he was

591
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: going in that you know, fourth, fifth, sixth round up

592
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: he got crazy high. He also got I mean he

593
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: got a huge bump from Geordie's injury. Well, that's what

594
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: it was. That's what it was. ADP even before that

595
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: was already like in the eighth round, and I was

596
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: I remember back then, like an early MFL tens when

597
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 1: people are drafting in this, I'm like, dude, you can't

598
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 1: take him in the eighth round. And then Jordy gets

599
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 1: hurt in just have to get I have some sound

600
00:30:55,480 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: effects that recap Vante season. Yeah yeah, yeah, that seem effective.

601
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 1: Uh and and and so that's what it was. The

602
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: hype train behind him was just insane. He went into

603
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: like the fourth round of a lot of leagues. It

604
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: was just nuts. And it's funny because this kind of

605
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: production is what all the fantasy enthusiasts were expecting of

606
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 1: him last year. You know, something approaching a thousand yards

607
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: or something approaching double digit touchdowns, and he just bombed.

608
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: I mean, the bad drops were highlighted over and over

609
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: and over again on your favorite highlights show. And he

610
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 1: just fell out of favor with the Green Bay offense.

611
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: And and Matt Harman just illustrated how far he fell

612
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: in Fantasy depth charts as well. He just came out

613
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: of nowhere and just bald. He absolutely bald. Nine six

614
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 1: receiving in tent touchdowns. I don't know, that's my vote.

615
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: Speaking of those drop drops, he's had three bad ones

616
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. If he would have caught those,

617
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: he'd be second in the league in touchdowns behind Nelson

618
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: and be over a thousand yards. Is that because he

619
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 1: had two bad drops against the Bears and he dropped

620
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: another one that's this past week against Minnesota, Right, But yeah, No,

621
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 1: I think it's been remarkable to see and it's amazing

622
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: to me. It continues to amaze me how much confidence

623
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 1: plays a role in professional um athletics. It's a psychological

624
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 1: game too, man, it is. It's amazing because they're not

625
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: video games out there, you know what I mean, You're

626
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: not robots, they're not cyborgs. But so that is my vote.

627
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: But two votes for Jordy, one for Melvin Gordon, and

628
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: one for Davante adam self. Thus, according to the podcast,

629
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson, your Fantasy Live Podcast comeback Player of the Year,

630
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: woun't achieve all r Let's talk bust of the year,

631
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: shall we So the end of the yang, we we go.

632
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: We start positive and then we're gonna go negative. Alright, alright,

633
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: so I apologize. Are we even allowed to stay bust

634
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 1: of the year. We're supposed to say disappointment of the year?

635
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: Whatever we're on this podcast? Nobody? Alright, Fine, well we'll

636
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: stay with sads of the year, Sad's of the year.

637
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: I like it. Sad's of the year. Here we go.

638
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: Cam Newton your quarterback sixteen. He's out of the top ten,

639
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 1: he's out of the top twelve. He's your quarterback sixteen.

640
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 1: He's got eighteen pass touchdowns, five rush touchdowns, fewer the

641
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: thirteen fantasy points five times, which is if you're planning

642
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: Cam Newton, those are weak killers. Five times scored fewer

643
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: than thirteen points. In he was the QB one. He

644
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,959
Speaker 1: had forty five total touchdowns, thirty five through the air,

645
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: ten on the ground. He's been a big time disappointment

646
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 1: this year. New Copkins, he's your wide receiver. Thirty nine

647
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: eight hundred and thirty one receiving yards, four touchdowns. He's

648
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 1: had less than six points eight times. Again, we talked

649
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: about weak killers. New Coopkins killed your week probably eight

650
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: times he has. By the way, he has zero point

651
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 1: five points more than Cole Beasley. That's not good. That's

652
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 1: not good. In he was the wide receiver six he

653
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 1: had fifteen twenty one yards and eleven touchdowns. Whole lee.

654
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: Hell uh, Brandon Marshall, this one's an interesting one. He's

655
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 1: a wide receiver forty nine. He has seven eight yards

656
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: and three touchdowns. This following a campaign where he had

657
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred receiving yards and fourteen touchdowns. That is brutal.

658
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,839
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley, I know it's gonna be a very popular pick.

659
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: And as a matter of fact, I think the Twitter,

660
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Twitter handle put this out right, uh bust

661
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: of the Year, and Todd Gurley was on there, and

662
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: I think he was crushing it in terms of in

663
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 1: terms of the votes. But he is currently your RB

664
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:43,280
Speaker 1: twenty one. He's got eight hund rush yards to ninety receiving.

665
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: He's got six touchdowns. Uh. He has had eight or

666
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: fewer points six times. Last year he was your RB

667
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: five nearly undred total yards, ten touchdowns. And this is

668
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 1: basically in twelve games. Twelve games started, he played thirteen,

669
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: but it wasn't really you know the guy in the

670
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 1: first game that he played, So in twelve games started,

671
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 1: he racked up thirteen total yards and ten touchdowns. He

672
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: was a beast, all right. So we'll start with Matt Harmon.

673
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 1: I know where you're going, but that's okay. Explain to

674
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 1: the folks and and I'll have an interesting counterpoint to this.

675
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 1: But uh, tell the folks who you believe to be

676
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 1: the Fantasy bust of the year. Yeah, I'm I am

677
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 1: definitely interested to hear your counterpoints because to me, it's

678
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 1: it's Todd Gurley. And I think because he's just the

679
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 1: he was just simply because he was the highest drafted

680
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 1: of these guys. I mean he was pretty much to

681
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 1: almost everybody, a top five overall pick, the first running

682
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: back off the board, YadA, YadA, YadA, And I mean

683
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: he was Miko was awful, just just awful to own.

684
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: It was. It was awful to own Todd Gurley because

685
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 1: you knew he was gonna get the volume each and

686
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 1: every week, whereas like guys like Brandon Marshall and you know,

687
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, those players. I mean, you you go in

688
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 1: like knowing, like I don't even know the quarterback is

689
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: going to be looking their way. I mean, that was

690
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: what you was so appealing about. Nuke was like, well,

691
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 1: you thought he's gonna get a ton of passes throw

692
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,839
Speaker 1: in his way and that just didn't happen. And yeah,

693
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 1: for me, Girley, like he gave you some usable weeks

694
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: for sure, but considering what you drafted, like where you

695
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 1: drafted him, and also like if you were really insistent

696
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 1: on taking a running back in the first round this year,

697
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: and you look pretty smart like a lot of Zeke

698
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 1: you know, David Johnson, those guys hit big even the

699
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 1: next round back Levian Bell and uh yeah, Freeman or

700
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: or Shady or any of these guys. You know, you

701
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: look really smart for taking a running back early. But

702
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 1: he rolled the dice in that landed on Girley. You're

703
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: feeling pretty bad. You weren't even really that's what I

704
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 1: thought you were not exactly. Basically, you're looking at that

705
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: that total yard is you're looking at the touchdowns, and

706
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: you're thinking, well, even if he gives me that production

707
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,800
Speaker 1: over sixteen games, you'd be happy with that. And the workload,

708
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: I mean, it has it has been there for for Girley.

709
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: He even got involved in the passing game during stretches,

710
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: which he did not, you know, as a rookie, and

711
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 1: so it has been awful. I would say he's probably

712
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,439
Speaker 1: the bus that you're almost simply because he went higher

713
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: than pretty much everybody else on the list. So here's

714
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: my counterpoint, which is, I get it. I totally understand

715
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: the fact that he did not deliver the top five value,

716
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,800
Speaker 1: but he was still he is still a top twenty

717
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,319
Speaker 1: is running back. So every single week did he give

718
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: you great numbers? No, But in a year where running

719
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: back was I mean decimated, this was a guy that, yes,

720
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 1: he would disappoint in terms of UH point totals versus

721
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 1: expectations every single week. And I get it. So the disappointment,

722
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: he was a disappointment every single week relative to expectations.

723
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,239
Speaker 1: That part I understand. But still the RB twenty one

724
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: and and quite frankly, if you look at his totals

725
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: on a week to week basis, it was not great, obviously,

726
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: but there were very very few weeks where it was

727
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 1: just awful. He had nine points or more seven times

728
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: this year. That's not great. Obviously, It's not weak changers.

729
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,799
Speaker 1: But if you just took the name off the back

730
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: of of the of the guy, and you said, all right,

731
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: well it's not Todd Gurley, just running back X. And

732
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: I told you running back X is gonna be a

733
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 1: top twenty running back. Uh every single week, and every

734
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: single week you're likely to get anywhere between you know,

735
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 1: seven and twelve points. Would you take that? I think

736
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 1: the answer would be resounding yes. But you wouldn't take

737
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: it with your first You would not take our top

738
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 1: five pick like you would have taken the top fifteen.

739
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:43,399
Speaker 1: I get that. That's what I got that with Frank

740
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: Gore in round eight. No, No, look, I totally understand that.

741
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,320
Speaker 1: I totally understand that. But let's say, for example, you

742
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 1: look at some of the other running backs that you

743
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,840
Speaker 1: might have taken in that in those top two rounds,

744
00:38:54,800 --> 00:39:00,400
Speaker 1: there was a ridiculous amount of injuries. Adrian Peterson Jamal

745
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 1: Charles was another guy, so I don't know. I mean,

746
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: he was obviously a disappointment. It's just to me, I

747
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 1: look at this list and I think Nuke has got

748
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: to be for me, the biggest bust of the year,

749
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 1: only because again, here's another guy that also was going

750
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:20,919
Speaker 1: in the top twelve picks in most drafts and every

751
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,479
Speaker 1: single week you had to throw him out there because

752
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 1: you're thinking, well, the talent level's got to come through,

753
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 1: and it never did. Yeah, I think that's you know,

754
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 1: well within reason to say who's up next for voting? Sure,

755
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:39,439
Speaker 1: I'll go next. Um, and I'm looking at this list

756
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,800
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to come up with the reason that

757
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: it shouldn't be Todd Gurley and I'm really struggling too. Yeah,

758
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, like Kim Cam Newton is a

759
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 1: huge disappointment. Um, there's no doubt about that. Trump fall

760
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 1: for drafting quarters. Um, you know, I feel like I

761
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, with Nuke, a lot of his

762
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: problems really weren't on him. A lot of that had

763
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 1: to do with brock Oswey. They're just not being because

764
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 1: Nuke far and away led the Texans and targets just

765
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 1: none of the targets were catchable so or or they

766
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 1: were targeted at him but went to the other team. Right,

767
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:15,399
Speaker 1: there's that Couch. I think he had like eight interceptions

768
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: when targeting Nuke because the throws were just so off

769
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 1: he could not throw to the outside, which is why

770
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,879
Speaker 1: I mean eight interceptions to one player though like, well,

771
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 1: he was targeting one player which I mean, which don

772
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: see why I I I semi jokingly on Twitter a

773
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,439
Speaker 1: few weeks ago, suggested that, you know, the analytics people

774
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 1: out there come up with a metric called quality targets

775
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 1: as opposed to just targets. Um, you know what he does.

776
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,240
Speaker 1: I will, I will make a case for Brandon Marshall

777
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: as the bust of the year. And I think a

778
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 1: lot of it is because he flew under the radar.

779
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: I feel like, as we all sat around and lamented

780
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 1: the fantasy demises of DeAndre Hopkins and Allen Robinson, Brandon

781
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: Marshall flew under the radar at at wide receiver forty nine,

782
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: a few of the eight hundred yards, just three touchdowns.

783
00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:00,319
Speaker 1: And I think I think what makes it glaringly bad

784
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 1: is that let's go back to the summer and we

785
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 1: all remember when the Jets finally signed Ryan Fitzpatrick and

786
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 1: the Twitter and Instagram posts of everybody celebrating in the

787
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 1: locker room. You know, the videos of Geno Smith looking sad,

788
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 1: wearing a hat that said where I had to said

789
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 1: no friends on it, and everything like, you know, just

790
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 1: basically being persona non grata and you know, us expecting, okay,

791
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 1: this means Brandon Marshall, Hey, you know he's safe again.

792
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,359
Speaker 1: He's a safe fantasy pick again. Okay, maybe he doesn't

793
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 1: give you fourteen touchdowns this year in fifteen hundred yards,

794
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,880
Speaker 1: but he's gonna be a wide receiver one dad gum it.

795
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,800
Speaker 1: Uh no, no, no, I mean he was. He was

796
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,800
Speaker 1: barely a wide receiver five this year. Last year, Brandon

797
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 1: Marshall only had he had sixty or kicks sixty yards

798
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 1: and or a touchdown in every single game, every single game.

799
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:53,240
Speaker 1: That's and the only other one again he had seventy

800
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,959
Speaker 1: yards and or a touchdown in all but one game.

801
00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 1: That's outrageous. Like consistency floor, yadi gotta everything that you

802
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 1: want to put it, and that floor just bottomed out

803
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 1: this year. I think there were a number of things

804
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,320
Speaker 1: that hurt. One losing Eric Decker to Ryan Fitzpatrick turning

805
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:11,320
Speaker 1: back into a pumpkin. Because you look at Brandon Marshall's

806
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,480
Speaker 1: first three games though thirty two yards disappointing, hundred one

807
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 1: yards solid day, seven yards ah, eighty nine in a touch,

808
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 1: hundred fourteen in a touch. But then there's that Arizona game,

809
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,760
Speaker 1: thrashing on Monday night football. I think when the wheels

810
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 1: really started to fall off for the Jets. It was

811
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 1: their fourth straight loss, their fifth in the first six weeks,

812
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:32,880
Speaker 1: and from then on out it just went like and

813
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick got injured and pulled that he was dealing with

814
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 1: price petty. Marshall got injured. So there's a lot of

815
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: things that conspired against him. I mean, nobody expected him

816
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,480
Speaker 1: to reachieve that eight again, I can, I could definitely

817
00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 1: understand the disappointment, but like a lot of things conspired

818
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,359
Speaker 1: into Brandon Marshall's downfall this year, that's true. I mean

819
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: there's age concerns as well. But you know, the Decker

820
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 1: thing I think is really interesting because no, you're right, Uh,

821
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 1: when you had those two big targets out there, it

822
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 1: makes it awfully tough uh to guard, you know, And

823
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,800
Speaker 1: and they were just rolling coverage over to Brandon Marshall.

824
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 1: Although I gotta say it's so weird though, when when

825
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 1: the Jets get down big in any normal fantasy scenario,

826
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 1: you're thinking, Okay, this is garbage time points, and Brandon

827
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: Marshall didn't really get garbage time points. He's a player

828
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:17,759
Speaker 1: to go back and definitely watch a lot in the

829
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,880
Speaker 1: off season to really dig into him because you know

830
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 1: this is I mean, you're right, the garbage time would

831
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 1: be interested to check like was he playing, you know,

832
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,439
Speaker 1: at a hundred percent? Like was he was he playing

833
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 1: all the well? Because you know they interesting about the

834
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: Jets two. You mentioned all that garbage time, Like I

835
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,840
Speaker 1: really expected that to actually help their fantasy receivers this

836
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 1: year because last year they were I think they were

837
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 1: already like top ten in past attempts. This year they're

838
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:43,439
Speaker 1: all the way down at twenty two, which you would

839
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 1: think is is a little shocking considering that they've been

840
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 1: It makes no sense, I know, well interesting, it is interesting.

841
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 1: Note that now, all right, so let's get your vote

842
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 1: goes to Mine's gotta go to Todd Gurley as well,

843
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,439
Speaker 1: simply because of how high he was. He was up there.

844
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Cam, I know, made the case for Aaron Rodgers.

845
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 1: Cam had been a strong fantasy quarterback. But Rogers, aside

846
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 1: from fifteen, every year that he started more than fifteen

847
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,479
Speaker 1: games was the quarterback one or two. And that's gonna

848
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 1: hold true again. This year's the QB one. Cam like

849
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 1: all the statistics were pointing towards regression for him, and

850
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,280
Speaker 1: a number of articles were written about it, so nobody

851
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 1: expected him to fall this far. But this was just

852
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: some a bit of a drop was expected. As with Nuke.

853
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 1: I feel like I know Harmon and I threw cold

854
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: water in it. There were another things you could see

855
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,799
Speaker 1: that trend late last year when the offense got its

856
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: act together in Houston and his targets dropped again, not

857
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 1: this big of fault, but it's gotta be girly, Like

858
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,839
Speaker 1: he doesn't even have as many total yards in fifteen

859
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,520
Speaker 1: games now as he did last year and twelve, Like, like,

860
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:42,239
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying, Like, yeah, he has still

861
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 1: been a somewhat consist consistent contributor, but Todd Gurley has

862
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: won people zero weeks this year and see and for

863
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:52,359
Speaker 1: first round pick, Like you know David Johnson Zeke had

864
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,320
Speaker 1: those games. You're like, well, they were in your lineup

865
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 1: if you were facing them. Let me let me ask you.

866
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, would you rather would you

867
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,360
Speaker 1: rather have a guy go down with injury in the

868
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 1: first round? I mean, would you would you rather? Hear?

869
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: This is the way to put it. Would you rather

870
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:10,439
Speaker 1: have had Adrian Peterson or Todd Gurley? Probably Peterson because

871
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 1: then I just know that that's that's the question. No, No,

872
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 1: that's the fair that's a fair point, like because I

873
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,719
Speaker 1: think that's the problem with with these guys too, is

874
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 1: like you get to hear get to a point and

875
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 1: I know I'm that way, Like, how can I not

876
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 1: be starting DeAndre Hopkins? You know what if he goes

877
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:27,719
Speaker 1: like and there's a lot of people that feel like, well,

878
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 1: if he goes off on my bench, then I feel

879
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: like an idiot. But sometimes it's better to just know.

880
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's like it's like in the relates, it's like

881
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,239
Speaker 1: the end of a really bad relationship and it's like,

882
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 1: oh God, for good's just pull the plug already. You

883
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 1: guys are gonna break up. Just get it over with.

884
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,359
Speaker 1: So I think that with Girly and he was never

885
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: even able to beat good matchups like he's last Niners,

886
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: like backup running backs, backup running backs for going for

887
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 1: a hundred plus against Girly average like two point nine

888
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 1: yards of carry. Again, um, if we can also just

889
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 1: say like one lesson I think to learn from Hopkins,

890
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: especially because you mentioned you and I uh were lower

891
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 1: on nuke than other people. We got kind of threw

892
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 1: not this much low, but like it definitely threw some

893
00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:15,359
Speaker 1: caution on that. I'm getting just beat the hell up

894
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 1: on Twitter for having that take. I mean because people

895
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 1: are like, that's stupid. No Way quarterbacks better this year.

896
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 1: You know he's gonna see all those targets again. Like

897
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 1: it's just a reminder that don't like you don't always

898
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 1: like no Way should not be in your vocabulary with

899
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 1: this stuff because a lot of things can change from

900
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:32,759
Speaker 1: year to year. I also was thinking with this too

901
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: at Davante Adams. Remember I think Marcus, it was a

902
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 1: quote you and you and Harmon I remember, I think

903
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:39,279
Speaker 1: we're the ones that said it on this podcast too.

904
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: That's like if Randall cop doesn't finishes the top fifteen

905
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:51,960
Speaker 1: wide horribly wrong, well, like thanks can change. Damn. You're right.

906
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 1: We really did say that. I put that in print

907
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 1: to it is it is on our website. I think

908
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: there was like a graphic made up when I said it. Yeah,

909
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 1: we put it was out on that. I know that

910
00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 1: I wrote that and I said it, and you wholeheartedly agree.

911
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: I'm actually gonna find that right now and quote tweet

912
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,800
Speaker 1: and shouldn't make fun of myself. But I mean, no,

913
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:13,920
Speaker 1: it's because you're right. It's a good point, like you know,

914
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 1: and it's not that everything went horribly wrong for Cop.

915
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,920
Speaker 1: He got a little injured and Adams ascended. Like things change,

916
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 1: Teams evolved, players, players can grow and find roles during

917
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 1: the season. The thing about things is they change. I

918
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,480
Speaker 1: think it wasn't the crux of your you guys, is

919
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 1: uh throwing cold water on the whole Nuke thing his targets. Yeah,

920
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 1: that the volume was came down a bunch. He averaged

921
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 1: like fourteen a game for the first eight and then

922
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 1: they established a running game. We're playing better overall football

923
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 1: and weren't down by forty points every week. You know,

924
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 1: it came down to like a nine. And the crazy

925
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 1: thing what was so crazy about it to me was

926
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 1: like everybody talked about regression is coming for Allan Robinson,

927
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:55,759
Speaker 1: you know, regression is coming for you know whoever, and

928
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: then Nuke was just completely immune from that when we

929
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,400
Speaker 1: already saw the regression take East where he was like

930
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 1: a top five receiver in the first half of the season,

931
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 1: and the second half of the season, when the Texans

932
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:08,719
Speaker 1: started running the football, which you know they wanted to

933
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,840
Speaker 1: do when they signed Miller, and playing better defense and

934
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 1: playing better defense and you know, winning games, which, by

935
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 1: the way, is what the the NFL teams actually want

936
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 1: to do. Uh he was like the wide receiver twelves,

937
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 1: so we had already seen that regression take place. It's

938
00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:23,440
Speaker 1: so interesting how much target share and estimated targets per

939
00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 1: game impact uh fantasy because you know, the talent level

940
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,839
Speaker 1: still certainly there for Nuke, but uh no, you're right,

941
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 1: he's just not getting quality targets, as Marcus Grant has

942
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 1: so astutely pointed out. All right, so coming up, so

943
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:39,240
Speaker 1: obviously Todd Gurley is gonna be uh your NFL Fantasy

944
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: Live podcast bust of the year. No congratulations dated they're

945
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 1: on Friday. We will be talking about uh well, it's

946
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,399
Speaker 1: it's interesting right because like when we when you watch

947
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 1: your favorite television show or or listen to your favorite

948
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,520
Speaker 1: program or whatever it is, I always get annoyed when

949
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:58,399
Speaker 1: they don't tie up loose ends. So thus the pod,

950
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:01,920
Speaker 1: this podcast will not be uh falling to that. We

951
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 1: will try to tie up as many loose ends as possible.

952
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:06,719
Speaker 1: On Friday, we're gonna be giving you an update on

953
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:10,480
Speaker 1: who was the champions of the o G League, of

954
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 1: the Bearded League, and of the danger zone league. What's wrong?

955
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,160
Speaker 1: So I just found I just found that Randall cob

956
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:19,800
Speaker 1: graphic and he said, I don't think there's anyway he

957
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 1: doesn't get back into the top ten, the top fifteen.

958
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:29,400
Speaker 1: Matt Harmon on Randall cop Well, I guess there was

959
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:33,000
Speaker 1: a way. There was a way, all right. So and

960
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 1: then James, Yeah, we're updating on the league. We're gonna

961
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 1: tell you what on pace? Mr on pace? Mark Ingram

962
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 1: is on pace four exactly, he's got nine rush ours

963
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: right now. Because if you if you've listened to the

964
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 1: podcast with any kind of regularity, you know that I

965
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 1: am a noted uh NFC South running back hater. I

966
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 1: don't know what it is about these NFC South running backs,

967
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:56,440
Speaker 1: but I'm not a fan. I don't know what. I

968
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,760
Speaker 1: don't know what it is. I've I've coined mark Ingram

969
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 1: as on pace because every single you can't talk about

970
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 1: mark Ingram without talking about what he is on pace

971
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 1: to do well, because everybody's always like, never had a

972
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,440
Speaker 1: thousand yards, but he was on pace. He's on pace

973
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:13,880
Speaker 1: for a thousand yards, right, He's on pace for a

974
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:19,640
Speaker 1: thousand yards. By the way, he's listen, Pal just calm down, Okay, Uh,

975
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,399
Speaker 1: he's got nine forty rush yards right now. Uh, it's

976
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 1: the best year of his career through a lot of metrics.

977
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,680
Speaker 1: But again, we'll give you, uh the final rush tally

978
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 1: on mark Ingram on Friday March to officially dead. But

979
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:37,399
Speaker 1: we'll give you the final tally there. I was super

980
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:39,640
Speaker 1: hyper on Marvin Jones. I look like a genius through

981
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 1: three weeks and then wow, that died very quickly. Um

982
00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:47,719
Speaker 1: what else did we owe? And and we're also gonna

983
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:50,080
Speaker 1: give you? Um, well, I guess we gotta wait till

984
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,600
Speaker 1: next week on this one. We had a gentleman's agreement,

985
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,600
Speaker 1: gentleman's proposition between Matt Harmon and myself have to wait

986
00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:58,560
Speaker 1: till next week. We can't do it on Friday. Can't

987
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:03,000
Speaker 1: do a lot could change on Sunday. How much is uh?

988
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 1: So this is Tyler Boyd the Brandon LaFell in what

989
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:12,279
Speaker 1: is the grossest one receiver? Uh? Gentleman's agreement. I gotta

990
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,919
Speaker 1: say I am a pretty you know when I'm watching

991
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,720
Speaker 1: football like, I'm pretty measured. I don't like get super

992
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 1: hyped about many things, but I in front of my

993

00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,600
Speaker 1: kid from Wisconsin. Just kidding, Okay, I'll start with myself

1030
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:34,320
Speaker 1: undaps to having the Fantasy Championship on Christmas Eve. That

1031
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:38,439
Speaker 1: was not cool. I was just like, no one cares

1032
00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:41,520
Speaker 1: about your fantasy team. I was on tilt. I thought

1033
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,880
Speaker 1: I'd be over like I'm a seasoned fantasy player, I

1034
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:48,480
Speaker 1: you know, work on this podcast. I do it on

1035
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 1: the television show I write an article. You think I'd

1036
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,560
Speaker 1: be like burned out to this whole thing, right, I'd

1037
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:59,800
Speaker 1: be steady, measured, not tilt. I was freaking tilting my

1038
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 1: butt off. Not cool. Don't put all these games on

1039
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:07,800
Speaker 1: Christmas eve? Man. I mean, I get the Week sixteen

1040
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:11,719
Speaker 1: generally falls during this whole Christmas time, but I mean,

1041
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 1: Roger Goodell, I know you listen to the podcast. Probably

1042
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 1: not I hope you actually we would not be doing

1043
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 1: the podcast anymore. I hope he doesn't actually listen to

1044
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 1: the podcast. But can we move Week sixteen either a

1045
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 1: week early or a week after? Because having these championships

1046
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 1: run on Christmas essentially not cool? Man. I don't like

1047
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 1: it because I am out. I lost basically on Saturday

1048
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 1: and two of my major leagues, and I was on

1049
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 1: just full tilt on Christmas. It felt terrible. I try

1050
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: to get over it's super quick, and I couldn't. I couldn't. Absolutely.

1051
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,600
Speaker 1: My wife was like, what is wrong with you? Man?

1052
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:56,799
Speaker 1: She's like, what is wrong with you? What is wrong?

1053
00:54:57,080 --> 00:55:00,840
Speaker 1: Stop it? Stop it? It's Christmas? And I'm like, Babe,

1054
00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:08,160
Speaker 1: you don't understand championships so brutal. Uh so undapts to

1079
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:22,440
Speaker 1: Stephen King I had retweeted this. It came out a

1080
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:27,120
Speaker 1: couple days before Christmas. The author, Stephen King, wrote a

1081
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:30,720
Speaker 1: children's book under the pseudonym Beryl Evans Is called Charlie

1082
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:32,640
Speaker 1: the chu Chow. But then so not only did he

1083
00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:35,359
Speaker 1: write a children's book, but then he put his own

1084
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:39,080
Speaker 1: review as Stephen King on the of the book to

1085
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:41,719
Speaker 1: promote it, said, if I were ever to write a

1086
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 1: children's book, it would be just like this King. So

1087
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 1: Daily Depths is Stephen King's tremendous troll job America. By

1088
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:53,520
Speaker 1: writing a children's book and then promoting it as himself,

1089
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:56,080
Speaker 1: that is tremendous. He he does a lot of different things,

1090
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:57,880
Speaker 1: by the way, he has a lot of pseudonyms actually

1091
00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:00,880
Speaker 1: because he writes fantasy, he writes sci fa. I uh,

1092
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,600
Speaker 1: he does all these different things. But you know when

1093
00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:05,640
Speaker 1: you see Stephen King, you think horror. Yeah, so he's

1094
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 1: a fantastic I mean, if people. Everybody knows Stephen King,

1095
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:09,720
Speaker 1: but if you've never actually read any of the books

1096
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,480
Speaker 1: that his movies are based on. There for a long time,

1097
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 1: that was all I read with Steve Stephen King. Stephen

1098
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:19,080
Speaker 1: King are fantastic. Pick one up this holiday season and

1099
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,680
Speaker 1: uh and check it out. I'll pick you back off

1100
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 1: of that because I just like the fact that he

1101
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:26,200
Speaker 1: is I love creative minds. And the fact that he

1102
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:32,040
Speaker 1: obviously makes a crazy amount of money on being Stephen King. Uh,

1103
00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:35,200
Speaker 1: he could totally just mail it in and just cash

1104
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,880
Speaker 1: them checks. Uh some of his later books that it

1105
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 1: kind of reads like, hell, that's fine, that's gonna happen.

1106
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 1: That is gonna happen. But the fact that he has

1107
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 1: such a creative mind and wants to do sci fi,

1108
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,720
Speaker 1: wants to write, you know, fantasy novels, wants to write

1109
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 1: not fantasy football novels, but you know, but also a

1110
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 1: novel about fantasy football. Good God, and also wants to

1111
00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:59,880
Speaker 1: real right right children's books. I think that's cool. I

1112
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:04,160
Speaker 1: like it. I'm down with it. Dude is like as

1113
00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:06,320
Speaker 1: a machine when it comes to writing novels, though, like

1114
00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:08,240
Speaker 1: he writes good ones, and he pumps him out frequently.

1115
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,640
Speaker 1: Like he's dedicated to his craft. If you're wondering how

1116
00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:14,400
Speaker 1: to be the next Stephen King, gotta work, gotta keep

1117
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 1: right a lot, gotta keep writing. All right, that's the

1118
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 1: show franchise we met about. All right for the Wiskit

1119
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:24,520
Speaker 1: from Wisconsin. MG. My got Marcus Grant, Matt Harmon and

1120
00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:51,080
Speaker 1: Matt Harmon's dad. I'm James co. We're out. Little Josh

1121
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:54,440
Speaker 1: Johnson has been a backup for every NFL team. I'm

1122
00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 1: pretty sure at this point it's it's after you, after

1123
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 1: the NFN the an NFL team goes through their requisite

1124
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:07,479
Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer starts for you stretch. Then you signed Josh

1125
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 1: Johnson to be your at least number two quarterback, number

1126
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:14,640
Speaker 1: three quarterback. I believe that's those are NFL. Those are

1127
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 1: in the in the rule book. Actually you also have

1128
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:19,520
Speaker 1: to have him account brother at some point. Yeah, that's true.

1129
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 1: And like, is Luke still the backup in New Orleans?

1130
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,720
Speaker 1: He is? Maybe they just got a chance. I bet

1131
00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:30,520
Speaker 1: some of those backups could really show. That was really

1132
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 1: funny how that happened, and he actually actually
