Not only did 27 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 4: I crash and burn this past week, they let me 28 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 4: have it. 29 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 5: Oh, it is the guillotine for sure. 30 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 4: I went on to talk about the NFL draft, and 31 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 4: I'm going in. I'm talking about the top eleven risers 32 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 4: from Round one of the playoffs. You know, I'm like 33 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 4: ready to go, and freaking Dwayne. He starts playing all 34 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 4: the smack talk I did on this show about the guillotine. 35 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 4: And Dwayne had just days before beaten my guillotine team 36 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 4: by like sixty points. Like, oh, it wasn't even remotely close. 37 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 4: And and you know it's even worse. The other guy 38 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 4: that advanced Friedman, he had Jalen hurt. 39 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 6: Wow. Yeah, he didn't even have a full repertoire. No, 40 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 6: and he smoked me too. 41 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 2: Wow, you had a good team, but last week it 42 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 2: just happened at all these good players, Like I don't know, 43 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 2: if I don't remember, if you had Dereck Henry. But 44 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: Dereck Henry wasn't even used in the second half because 45 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: the Ravens got up by so much. Yeah, you know, 46 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 2: and they were just all these Saquan had a quiet games. 47 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 2: They were just all these superstars that had quiet games 48 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 2: last week that just eliminated Powerhouse. Guillotine League. 49 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 3: Kid. 50 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 6: It's it's it's a really traumatic thing. 51 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,959 Speaker 5: And the late season, I can tell your crush. 52 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 4: And I'm only talking about this show having to get 53 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 4: to that. I mean, like they am boys hit and 54 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 4: then now you got to talk about the draft prospects. 55 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 6: It was like I was still getting over the loss 56 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 6: of my my Guillotine team. Yeah, poor thor Man. Tough scenes. 57 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, you battle for like fifteen weeks. 58 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 4: Yeah they get chopped quause I dominated for fifteen weeks, 59 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 4: by the way, And I don't want to get back 60 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 4: into that. 61 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 3: It might be worse to get chopped in week sixteen 62 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 3: than it is in like week two. 63 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 4: Oh, I would so much rather go in week one, 64 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 4: because let's just say both have happened to me. 65 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, you've experienced both in my spectrum. 66 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 6: I want it right away, painless done. 67 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 2: We're gonna go through all the matchups, letter grades, and 68 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 2: all the players that matter. And I think you're gonna 69 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: find we're gonna hone some of our discussion to the 70 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 2: players who are relevant in the final week of the season, 71 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: so you will not be hearing a lot of the 72 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 2: third tier guys as much. Take a chance on me 73 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 2: as always, that's still totally valid in Week seventeen, and 74 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 2: we'll answer three tough questions, some of those forward looking 75 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 2: to next year. And let's roll up our sleeves. Matt 76 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 2: let's speakin with Denver taking on Cincinnati. The Cincinnati defense 77 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: might be the worst in the league. So I gotta 78 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: believe there's some Denver Broncos we can start here. 79 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I got a couple. I got a B grade 80 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 3: on bow Knicks. Since Week eight, that's eight games for Nicks. 81 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 3: He's thrown seventeen touchdown passes just over to a game, 82 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 3: and he's averaging two hundred and forty eight yards. But 83 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 3: let's temper those n expectations little bit here. In that 84 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 3: span of eight really good fantasy games, he's played seven 85 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 3: teams in the bottom half of the league in pass defense. 86 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 3: His opponents couldn't have been easier for the last two months, 87 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 3: and entering the Bengals, who just keep that train going. 88 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: Bengals are bottom ten in pass yards and touchdowns, rushing 89 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 3: yards and rushing touchdowns the quarterback, so he'll get numbers 90 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,119 Speaker 3: on Saturday, but pay attention to the opponents he faced 91 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 3: when you rank Knicks for next year. 92 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the last thing I'll mention on Knicks is 93 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: they've taken the wheels off him. He doesn't run anymore, 94 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: not as much. I want to say, sure, having in 95 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 2: front of me, but like last six games, he's averaging 96 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: three designed runs a game. 97 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 3: It is. 98 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, and nobody used the word regression or coming back 99 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 4: to the you know, no, don't get into that. 100 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 3: It's worth noting since he is one of the teams 101 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 3: that could steal Denver's playoff spot. So this is a 102 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 3: big game for both teams. So a Cortland Sutton is 103 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 3: the only other Bronco you'd start here, and I'll throw 104 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 3: a B grade his way. The Bengals are giving up 105 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 3: a lot to quarterbacks, but so much of it has 106 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 3: been to tight ends and pass catching runners that they're 107 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 3: actually kind of good against wide receiver. They're allowing just 108 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 3: shy of eleven receptions per game to wide receivers, and 109 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: you spread that around with Sutton and Vele and Marvin 110 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 3: Mims and Troy Franklin and little Jordan Humphrey, who are 111 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 3: all averaging two receptions per game. So Sutton's probably looking 112 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 3: at four to five catches. It's just what he gets anyway. 113 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 3: But he does have the best chance to score, as 114 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 3: he's been Nick's favorite target near the end zone. If 115 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 3: you can figure out the Denver running backs, call me 116 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 3: and let me know. I can't figure it out. Nobody's 117 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 3: starting any of those guys in a championship week, So 118 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 3: let's go to Cincy. Jamar Chase still gets the A grade, 119 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 3: and I'm not that afraid of starting t Higgins either. 120 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 3: He gets a B, noting that he's been limited in 121 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 3: practice this week, but he's trending toward playing. The last 122 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 3: time the Broncos faced an AFC North opponent, it was 123 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 3: Cleveland just a few weeks ago. Jerry Judy had nine 124 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 3: for two thirty five and one. Elijah Moore had eight 125 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 3: for one eleven nine. Yeah, I'll mention this on the 126 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 3: Higgins thing. Yeah, his is because I think this is 127 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 3: worth this is we're paying attention to. If Higgins is 128 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 3: in or out makes a big difference for Jamar Chase 129 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 3: because where Patrick Cirtan shadows, and Patrick Sirtan might be 130 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 3: the best cornerback in the league, sure where he shadows. 131 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 2: As if the opposing receiver team has one good receiver 132 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 2: when T Higgins is playing, then the Bengals have two 133 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 2: good receivers. And I don't think it's gonna be all 134 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 2: Sirtan on Chase. 135 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 3: You know what, I don't think it's gonna be either, 136 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 3: because Sirtan never goes to the slot and Chase runs 137 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 3: thirty four percent of his routes from the slot, so 138 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 3: roughly a third of his routes are going from the slot, 139 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 3: and Higgins is about twenty percent. So, especially if Higgins 140 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 3: is healthy and going, I think there's enough for each 141 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 3: of these guys to move in and out of the 142 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 3: slot avoid the tough matchup. And I think that we're 143 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 3: okay here. The Broncos have allowed eighteen double digit fantasy 144 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 3: days to wide receivers in fifteen games, most of the 145 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 3: games where they did well against the pass. 146 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 2: Here's the quarterbacks. 147 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 3: They've faced justin fields, Aaron Rodgers, Gardner, Minshew Aiden O'Connell, 148 00:06:55,880 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 3: Spencer Rattler, bad Kirk Cousins Minshew again, Anthony Richards said 149 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 3: that might be more. 150 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 2: All of them have either been benched or were benched 151 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 2: at the start of the season. 152 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 5: Exactly. 153 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I'm not scared of the receivers and I'm 154 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 3: not scared of starting Joe Burrow with an A grade 155 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 3: either of the last four quarterbacks they have faced who 156 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 3: are not on the list. I just rattled off, We're 157 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 3: justin airbear, Jamis Winston, Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson. They averaged 158 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: three hundred and thirty one passing yards and two and 159 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 3: a half touchdowns against the Broncos, so I'm fine with them. Finally, 160 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 3: Chase Brown, this one's a little bit complex. Denver actually 161 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 3: fantastic against the run, only allowing three point nine yards 162 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 3: per carry and seven scores to running backs on the air, 163 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 3: both in the top five where it flips as They've 164 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 3: allowed the seventh most receptions and receiving yards to opposing 165 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 3: backs and the third most receiving touchdowns. Chase Brown has 166 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 3: had at least three receptions and seven three receptions in 167 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: seven straight games and in the last five weeks. He's 168 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 3: sixth in the league in running back receptions, so in PPR. 169 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 3: I think he does enough to have a pretty good day. 170 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 3: I'll give him a B grade here and then one 171 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 3: more thing. You might have noticed. I was gone for 172 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 3: a while. Scott Fish and Thor covered for me a 173 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 3: whole bunch in the last couple of weeks. 174 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 5: Thank you both to both of you, guys. 175 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 3: Longtime listener of Fantasy Football Weekly and zero time fantasy player. 176 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 3: My mom, Kathy Harrison, passed away last week after a 177 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 3: tough battle with pancreatic cancer. I've been kind of helping 178 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 3: her up north for the past couple of months. She 179 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 3: always listened to the show. She told me she had 180 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 3: no idea what we were talking about. Ye, but she's 181 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 3: still enjoyed. Yeah, she still enjoyed the humor and the 182 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 3: energy and much of that I get from her. So 183 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 3: I'm going to miss her and try to honor her 184 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 3: memory by telling dumb jokes and talking about fake football teams. 185 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 3: So cheers to Mom. Enjoy your dirty martini and a 186 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 3: side of dill pickle in heaven. 187 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 2: Rest in peace. Yeah, Matt's mom Kathy right, Rat's mom Harrison, Yes, 188 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: Kathy Harrison right, just. 189 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 5: Like my name. 190 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, how about them? Well, you know I didn't want 191 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 2: to make any assumptions. You never you never know that's true. 192 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 2: Could be different. Yeah, Thor Arizona takes on the Rams. 193 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 2: It looks like James Connor will be available for this game, 194 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 2: but we don't know for sure, so I guess we 195 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 2: assume Connor's going here. 196 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 4: All the reports are optimistic, so I'm going to give 197 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 4: him a bee. He is officially questionable with the knee 198 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 4: injury that he've got in the overtime loss to Carolina, 199 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 4: but you know, we're we're turning towards playing and if so, 200 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 4: he's probably gonna assume a big workload here. Trey Benson 201 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 4: is another guy with his status up in the air. 202 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 4: He appears to Benson appears to be trending towards playing two. 203 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 4: I'm going to keep him with a bench grade, but 204 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 4: Connor gets the beef. 205 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 2: If Connor can't go and Benson does, which honestly I 206 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 2: kind of I don't. I'm not rooting for injury. Never 207 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 2: never do that, Mann. I'd love to see what Trey 208 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 2: Benson does on twenty two arries. You know, I would 209 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 2: love to see to see that. 210 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 6: Yes, I would love to see that too. 211 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 4: Kyler Murray, we're giving him a BEE as well. He 212 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 4: has a touchdown to interception ratio of four to six 213 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 4: in the past five weeks, not the best. Murray did 214 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 4: have twenty fantasy points in that aforementioned lost to the 215 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 4: Carolina Panthers last week. The Rams defense that Arizona's playing 216 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 4: this week has allowed eighteen plus fantasy points to four 217 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 4: quarterbacks since Week eight, and Murray did have twenty eight 218 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 4: points against the Rams back in Week two. Going way 219 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 4: back could be a second straight good game coming here. 220 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 4: Murray had a twelve to three td I and T 221 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 4: rate before the buye. He is going to have to 222 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 4: navigate offensive line issues though. The Cardinals just placed both 223 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 4: their starting tackles on high r which not good. Perhaps 224 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 4: not the best, but yeah, I said it with a 225 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 4: be there Marvin Harrison Junior giving him a C. He 226 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 4: has gone under nine fantasy points in two straight games 227 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 4: and nine to fifteen total this season. 228 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 6: He does have twenty. 229 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 4: Two targets over the past three games, but he didn't 230 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 4: have more than four catches or forty nine yards in 231 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 4: any individual one of them. The fifty two percent catch 232 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 4: rate is problematic and may I say surprising. 233 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, we haven't talked to yet. 234 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 6: What happened? What happened about his BOS scales? Where did 235 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 6: they go? 236 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 2: H Where did they go? 237 00:10:58,840 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 6: I don't know. 238 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 2: His quarterback is not throwing a lot of accurate passes. 239 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 2: That's Harrison is part of the problem. We'll dive into 240 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 2: that in the offseason. That has been an under discussed 241 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 2: topic on this show. Marvin Harrison's failing. 242 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 6: We might have to have a full well not just 243 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 6: a fall episode. 244 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 4: We might have to do like a serial podcast into 245 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 4: that thing, Like. 246 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 5: Is it gonna be like an intervention kind of a thing. 247 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 6: Maybe, Yeah, we'll bring him in one of the one 248 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 6: of the episodes. 249 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 4: And the Rams pass defense has played better recently, so 250 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 4: I gave Harrison Junior a see. Trey McBride is the 251 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 4: A and the must start moving over to the Rams. 252 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford great a see on him. He had his 253 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 4: first back to back sub two hundred yard passing games 254 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 4: since last season the middle of last season, only scored 255 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 4: fourteen fantasy points the last two games combined. The Cardinals 256 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 4: defense held him to just six points six fantasy points 257 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 4: back in Week two. Stafford did not, of course, have 258 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 4: a passing touchdown in that game, and he only has 259 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 4: one passing touchdown in the last two weeks. Despite the 260 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 4: Rams being on a four game winning streak, Arizona has 261 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 4: allowed just two quarterbacks to score more than seventeen and 262 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 4: a half fantasy points since Week seven. So I'm a 263 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 4: little bit tepid there. Gave him a c Kyant and 264 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 4: Puka of course are as and must starts. Iago Cooper 265 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 4: Cup down to a bee. Since Week eight. Cup has 266 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 4: been the wide receiver twenty four and fantasy points per game, 267 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 4: but in three of the last four games he has 268 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 4: failed to surpass thirty receiving yards. 269 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 5: Wow. 270 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 4: Ouch, the volume could be and Dash should be there 271 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 4: this week though, which is where you sort of shade 272 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 4: it uptimistic. Arizona has run the highest preponderance of two 273 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 4: high coverage safety looks in the entire NFL since Week ten. 274 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 4: Cups first read share spikes to nearly thirty percent against 275 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 4: too high tend to look for him in these coverage looks. 276 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 4: That's the optimistic thing there. Everyone else is on the bench. 277 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 2: We'll talk more about Cooper Cup a little bit later 278 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 2: in the show. Chargers taking on the Patriots. We have 279 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 2: a change of running back JK. Dobbins. Yeah, Zach Yeah, 280 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 2: Gus Edwards out and probably not gonna play out next 281 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 2: week as well, So we'll who cares about week eighteen. 282 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 2: It's week eighteen. Nobody cares JK. Dobbins, though, we'll return. 283 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 2: Dobbins started the season on fire, then languished playing hurt, 284 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 2: and then ultimately ended up on ir. We don't really 285 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 2: know is he like one hundred percent? Is he ninety percent? 286 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 2: But this is an interesting opportunity. The last two weeks, 287 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 2: opposing runners have hammered the Patriots for six yards per 288 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 2: carry and four touchdowns in those two games. So JK. 289 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: Dobbins as comes back here with a B grade and 290 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 2: I kind of like him in this matchup against New England. 291 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 2: Hopefully he's near one hundred percent. Let's go to the 292 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 2: passing game. Ladenincaky comes into the B Garrett grade as well. 293 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 2: The single biggest strength of the Patriots is their secondary, 294 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 2: which has obliterated the last three opposing wideouts, during which 295 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 2: no receiver has topped sixty yards and only one has scored. 296 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 2: Last week, no Bills receiver topped even twenty five yards. 297 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 6: Now. 298 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 2: Fortunately for lad mccacky, he runs from the slot and 299 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: slack cornerback Marcus Jones is the weakest link of the 300 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 2: Patriots cornerbacks and he's hurt. Last week Alex Austin took 301 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: his spot and gave up two catches on three targets, 302 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 2: So the opportunities will still be there for lad McConkie 303 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 2: and he comes in with a B grade. We're putting 304 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 2: Quinton Johnston on the bench. As I just mentioned, this 305 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 2: is a tough matchup, and Johnson is a low volume 306 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 2: touchdown dependent receiver. Over the past six games, the Patriots 307 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 2: have only allowed five wide receiver touchdowns, and three of 308 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 2: those five would to far better players like Cooper Cup 309 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 2: and Pooka Kakua. So Quinn Johnson's out all the rest 310 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 2: of all the tight ends will Disley if he plays, 311 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 2: Hayden Hurst, Tucker Fisk, Stone Smart all out. They cannibalize 312 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 2: each other, and that leaves us with this guy. The 313 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 2: air mayre justin Herbert. Even though Herbert's coming off a 314 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 2: good game with some extra rest and should be as 315 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 2: healthy as he's been in like a month, I'm still 316 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 2: leery of him in this matchup. The Patriots just neutralized 317 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 2: Josh Allen and Kyler Murray in consecutive weeks. If Herbert 318 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 2: had better wideouts. I'd like this more, but after McConkie 319 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 2: it drops off a cliff, so I'm only going CE 320 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 2: grade on Justin Herbert in this game. I've got a 321 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: couple of C grades on the New England side for you, 322 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 2: Beginning in the running game with Romandre Stevenson. He got 323 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 2: healthy over the Patriots Week fourteen by and then in 324 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 2: fifteen and sixteen. He's been running hard, averaging five point 325 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 2: two yards per carry, including a touchdown last week, but 326 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 2: his usage is down from the workhorse role that he 327 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 2: had earlier this year as Antonio Gibson is getting an 328 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 2: increasing workload. Chargers run defense has lapsed lately over the 329 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 2: last four weeks, LA giving up four point nine yards 330 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 2: per carry along with five touchdowns to runners in those 331 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: four games. So I still like Stevenson and still startable 332 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 2: in a championship week, but only at a C grade. 333 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 2: Drake may almost always finds a way to a decent 334 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 2: box score despite playing with the worst offensive line in football. 335 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 2: The Chargers secondary started the season strong, but they've wilted, 336 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 2: and over the past seven games, five touchdowns have scored 337 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: two times against the Chargers, three of them scored three 338 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 2: or four touchdowns. In the last two weeks, bo Nicks 339 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: and Baker Mayfield have run for twenty five yards, which 340 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 2: is about where it may usually fall. So I think 341 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 2: it's gonna help you out a little bit with his 342 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: legs as well. If you're in a two quarterback league 343 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: super flex league, Drake May plausible second quarterback with a 344 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: C grade. And the only only quarterback that you would 345 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 2: consider playing for New England is or the only receiver 346 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 2: end up considering playing is the tight end Hunter Henry. 347 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 2: He's been Drake May's most reliable receiver, but this is 348 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 2: a very difficult matchup against a great tight end defense, 349 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 2: maybe the best tight end defense in the league. Chargers 350 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 2: have allowed the fourth fewest fantasy points to tight ends. 351 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 2: They've only given up one tight end touchdown all year. 352 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 2: So even though Hunter Henry has been safe, I don't 353 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 2: love him here and I can only get you to 354 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 2: a C grade and you're not starting any of the 355 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 2: Patriots wide receivers for sure. But you know, let me 356 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 2: mention this in dynasty leagues, and I'm thinking about doing 357 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 2: this in our Empire league and the. 358 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 5: One that's about to end to end. 359 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 2: Kaishan Boute Kaishon booty. It's a deep dash stash player. 360 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 5: Going for some booty bingo. 361 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 2: You could heading into the offseason when we come back, 362 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 2: take a chance on me. Nine players you wouldn't normally start, 363 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 2: and guys you could even start. If you need a 364 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 2: hail mary in week seventeen, we'll talk them about them. 365 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 2: Would we come back, take a chance on me nine 366 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 2: players you would not normally start. Maybe you need a 367 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 2: hail mary in this the championship week. Maybe you've played 368 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:49,719 Speaker 2: against Derrick Henry and you and Blabar Jackson both and 369 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 2: now you need something special to happen. 370 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 3: Maybe you had Jalen Hurts and you're searching for a 371 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 3: quarterback desperately. 372 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 2: So Matt, what quarterback could I use? 373 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 3: You know, charg you always tell me to try a 374 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 3: Titans quarterback. You say it'll work out great. 375 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 2: One of these years tis the season. 376 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 3: So Rudolph, with your arm so bold, won't you guide 377 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 3: me to fantasy gold Mason Rudolph as might take a 378 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 3: chance on me quarterback. He doesn't have a glowing red nose, 379 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 3: but I love the way he's just chucking it the 380 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 3: last couple of weeks, and he likes to chuck it 381 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 3: into the end zone multiple touchdowns in both of his 382 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 3: last two starts. Andy Face is a Jags defense that's 383 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 3: allowed the most passing yards and the fourth most passing touchdowns. 384 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 3: It would have to be a Jalen Hurts you're scrambling 385 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 3: for options kind of thing. But he's a better option 386 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 3: than his former teammate Kenny Pickett, who's going to start 387 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 3: for the Eagles. So stash him on your bench just 388 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 3: in case. Or if you're playing against the Hurts owner, Yeah, 389 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 3: stash him on your bench just in case so he 390 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 3: can't be used by that user. 391 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 2: Yep, this is a this is a plus matchup here. Yeah, 392 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: there's you know, there's there's potential magic here from Mason 393 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 2: Rudolph of all people in seventeen. Imagine you win your 394 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 2: league with Mason Rudolph as your pickup quarterback? Yeah, thor, 395 00:18:58,880 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 2: who is your take a chance with me? 396 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 6: Anthony Richardson against the Giants. 397 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 4: In last week's win over those aforementioned Titans, Richardson scored 398 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 4: twenty Fantasy points with a career high seventy rushing yards. 399 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 4: And we've been trending this way of using Richardson's legs 400 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 4: more since he was reinstated as quarterback one in Week eleven. 401 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 4: Before that, he had six point eight carries per game. 402 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 4: Now he's at nine flat. He's had four games of 403 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 4: seven plus design runs in his past five starts, and 404 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 4: that was his second consecutive I'm sorry, second twenty plus 405 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 4: point game in his last three starts. And this is 406 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 4: a plumb matchup against a terrible Giants defense. 407 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 2: You'll need to watch his injury status unfortunately, as he's 408 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 2: got I think knee, hip, ankle something, and. 409 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 3: I like that the Colts aren't fighting it anymore and 410 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 3: they're just like, yeah, go run have fun. 411 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 2: Well why not? I mean that should have been the 412 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 2: attitude all along with Richards into my opinion, Bryce Young 413 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: has played well. Speaking of guys who've running touchdowns, Bryce Young, Yeah, 414 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 2: rushing touchdowns in three of the last four games. 415 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, how about that? The Bryce Young CJ shroud that 416 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 4: everyone thought was over? Yeah, add and Anthony richardson that 417 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 4: so fast, my friend. 418 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 2: Over the last six games, Young is finished as a 419 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 2: quarterback one four times in six games. He's thrown touchdowns 420 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 2: in every game since its return to the starting lineup 421 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 2: in Week eight. Now, granted it's usually one touchdown, but nevertheless, 422 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 2: he's scored touchdowns and every one of his starts since 423 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 2: coming back, and he's, as I mentioned, run in scores 424 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,120 Speaker 2: in three or four games. Easy matchup against a wounded 425 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 2: Tampa secondary five different players are injured. Cooper rushed through 426 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 2: for almost three hundred yards against Tampa last week. Bryce 427 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 2: Young gets back Adam Xavier Legett, who is somebody you 428 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 2: could potentially start in this game as well, and we'll 429 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 2: talk a little bit more about him later in the show. 430 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 2: Bryce Young as a take a chance at me quarterback. 431 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 2: Let's go to the running back position. 432 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 3: Man, I've got Rashad White. Yes, Bucky Irving's the number one. Yes, 433 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 3: that doesn't matter against the Panthers. In week thirteen, when 434 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 3: these two teams faced off, White had eleven carries and 435 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 3: seventy six yards. That's six point nine to nice yards 436 00:20:59,160 --> 00:20:59,719 Speaker 3: per carry. 437 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 5: Plus. 438 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 3: White is still way more involved in the passing game 439 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 3: and in pass blocking opportunities, which is meaning White is 440 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 3: usually getting the higher snap count between the two running backs. 441 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 3: Last week, he saw eight targets, seven receptions and fifty 442 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,880 Speaker 3: yards through the air against Dallas, and he scored six 443 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 3: receiving touchdowns in the last nine games. In the last 444 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 3: in eight of the last nine he scored double digit 445 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 3: PPR points. He's a starter this week. 446 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 2: Bucky Irving is a plus and Rashad Way can help. Oh, 447 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 2: we can talk about Bucky Irving. We'll get to him 448 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 2: later in this show. His superhuman status A baby. I 449 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 2: love I love that guy. Let's go to thor your 450 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 2: take a chance with me running back. 451 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 4: I'm gonna do reco daddle against the Eagles. Last week 452 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 4: was Donald's first with under one hundred rushing yards in 453 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 4: a game since Week twelve. Thirteen carries twenty three yards 454 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 4: against a very good Tampa Bay Buccaneers run defense. Rushing 455 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 4: yards per attempt average fell from six in his previous 456 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 4: three games to one point eight in that one. I 457 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 4: will say the Eagles do have one of. 458 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 6: The best run defenses. 459 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 4: Yes, they too maybe the past, and they have surrendered 460 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 4: the second fewest fantasy points to running backs this year. 461 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 4: But I'm not doing a great self. I'm gonna turn 462 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 4: this ship around. I still do think that there's bounced 463 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 4: back potential here because Daudo for sure is gonna be 464 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 4: the focal point of the offense. With Ceedee Lamb out 465 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 4: for the year, and even with last week included the 466 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 4: last five games, average nineteen point four carries per game, 467 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 4: twenty one point four touches per game, one hundred and 468 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 4: twelve scrimmage yards per game, handed, sixteen plus touches in 469 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 4: five straight games. I think he's gonna get there here, 470 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 4: probably broached twenty here. 471 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 6: We'll see roll of the dice, you know, Oh no, 472 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 6: bring in the tanks, Bring. 473 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 2: In the tanks. That's right, Tank Bigsby against Tennessee. Bigsby's 474 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 2: usage trending up. He's supposed double digit carries in three 475 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 2: straight games, and he's out rutching Traves Etn over those 476 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 2: three games. And importantly, Etn has one carry from inside 477 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 2: the five since Week two. Who he is a non 478 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 2: factor at the goal line. Trank Tank Bigsby will face 479 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 2: the Titans that is a slumping run defense. Jonathan Taylor 480 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 2: just gashed him for two hundred and eighteen yards and 481 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 2: three scores a week before that. Chase Brown topped one 482 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 2: hundred yards scored twice week before that, who scored a 483 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:24,479 Speaker 2: touchdown against Tennessee. Tank bigs me, Tank Bigsby, you take 484 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 2: a chance of you're running back for week number seventeen, You're. 485 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 6: Tank a chance on we running. 486 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 2: Back, Ohome, I haven't thought of that earlier. 487 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 5: I'm glad you guys like puns. 488 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 2: Well some more. 489 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 6: That makes two of us. 490 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 2: Yes, all right, you're. 491 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 3: Take a chance with me, receiver man, Well, since you 492 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 3: like puns.

In week sixteen eleven targets, 499 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 3: nine catches, eighty one yards. No touchdowns in that span, 500 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 3: but the Jags have allowed the sixth most touchdowns to 501 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 3: the tight end position.

Scott Fish 503 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 2: isn't here, but we're gonna give him the peacock anyway. 504 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 2: He identified two Titans to use down the stretch. With 505 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 2: his easy run of players, he urged you to pick 506 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:29,239 Speaker 2: up and start spearers like three weeks ago and now 507 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 2: Chiga Konku. 508 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 6: Last week. 509 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 2: All right, thor you're taking chance with your receiver, your 510 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 2: last one of the year. 511 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 6: Could I interest you in another injured colts against it? 512 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 4: This time we are taking a chance on Alec Piers, 513 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 4: who was in the concussion protocol. As of Friday, he 514 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 4: has been cleared to play. And because of this, I 515 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 4: think this is a This game, I think is a 516 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 4: tremendous matchup for Alec Pearce's game. Alec peers number one 517 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 4: in the NFL in deep targets, yeah, and number two 518 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 4: with over twenty two yards per reception. The Giants allow 519 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 4: get this sixty two percent completion rate on deep passes 520 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 4: that is more than more than five percentage points worse 521 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 4: than the next closer than the thirty first like. 522 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 2: The NFL average on deep passing completion percentage like forty 523 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 2: five percent. Yes, that is it. 524 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 4: Yes, this is like throwing an intermediate pass against anyone 525 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 4: else is chucking it deep against the Giants. The deep 526 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 4: ball guys like Kelvin Austin, Amari Cooper is now on 527 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 4: a on a milk carton and Rashot Bateman all had 528 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 4: their best game Fantasy games of the season against the Giants. 529 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 4: I think there's a shot that Alec Pierce might two. 530 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 2: Now for my final take a chance on me of 531 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 2: the year, it came down to Xavier Lagette thor or Yep, Jalen. 532 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 4: Ca Well you know I'm I'm the head of the 533 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 4: kok Heads, right you are? 534 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:55,479 Speaker 1: You know? 535 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 6: Okay, good, good good? 536 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely one of us, one of undrafted from Holy Cross, 537 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 2: just like us. 538 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 6: The kids.

There was a lot of 543 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 2: wo sounds that I really struggled with. Tampa Bay's secondary 544 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 2: is a weck with injuries. Four guys on ir stud 545 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 2: safety Antoine Winfields known with the knee injury, in his 546 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 2: backup cave On Mereweather also unknown with the knee injury. 547 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 2: So yeah, Jalen Coker, I know, I know you like, 548 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 2: I know you liked him. You're glad that he landed 549 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 2: with the team and now he's got an opportunity. 550 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 6: Sure does. 551 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, he is birsty as an NFL frame and his 552 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 4: ball skills are tremendous. Yeah, I was very bolished on 553 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 4: Jalen Coker coming out happy. 554 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 2: He got an opportunity, Carolina taking on on the same team, 555 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 2: Carolina take on Tampa. 556 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 6: Talk about Coker, Matt, we've the rest of the show. 557 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 2: I've already hit on Bryce Young and Jalen Coker in 558 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 2: this one. You want to stick with the passing. 559 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 3: Game, Sure, Adam feln was the only other starting grade 560 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 3: I gave the passing game. I gave him a C 561 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,719 Speaker 3: grade for a lot of the reasons Sharks listed for Coker. 562 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 3: The matchup is fantastic. Feelan saw ten targets, eight catches, 563 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 3: ninety nine yards in a score in last month's meeting 564 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 3: with the Bucks. I didn't go so far as Xavier 565 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 3: Lagette coming back off an injury in a fantasy championship. 566 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 3: That seems a little bit too cute for me. Tuba 567 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 3: Hubbard's the only other Panther you'd consider starting. He's injured 568 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,880 Speaker 3: right now. It looks like he's gonna play. I'll give 569 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 3: him a C grade, but it's closer to a bench. 570 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 3: Tampa figured out one thing defensively, it's run stopping. In 571 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 3: the last six games, only one back is top forty 572 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 3: three rushing yards and that was sincere McCormick hitting seventy eight. 573 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 3: And they've only allowed one total touchdown to the running 574 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 3: back position since Week ten, which includes Hubbard getting forty 575 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 3: three yards on twelve carries in the prior meeting. 576 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 2: Then Hubbard fubbled away the game in overtime tragically. Yeah, 577 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 2: I was appeeling a victory away from the Panthers. 578 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 3: Well, on the Bucks side, I think you should probably 579 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 3: start Bucky Irving. Yes, Rashad White was might take a 580 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 3: chance on me her, but we all know the Panthers 581 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 3: have the worst run defense in the league. But charge 582 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 3: did you know that the slipperiest substance in the world 583 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 3: is called bam. No, it's called bam BAM.

We gotta workshop this sounder. 616 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 5: We got plenty of time. 617 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 3: Baker Mayfield has been on fire the last three weeks, 618 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 3: with at least two hundred and eighty eight yards in 619 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 3: every game and nine touchdown passes in those three. The 620 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 3: last time he didn't do amazing work it was against 621 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 3: these Panthers four weeks ago, still a solid B grade. 622 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 3: Worried that the game script could favor the runover the pass. 623 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 3: But I know he still has some work to do 624 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 3: in the air, because Mike Evans is one hundred and 625 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 3: eighty two yards short of an eleventh straight one thousand 626 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 3: yard season and a big contract bonus, and he's going 627 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 3: to get it this week against the Panthers. Second Ardvark 628 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 3: of the matchup, Mike Evans gets. 629 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 2: Up there, I thought the guard per game what happened? 630 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 3: Well, Panthers starting corner j C. Horn started the year 631 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 3: off great, tailed off recently and he's doubtful with a 632 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 3: hip injury. 633 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 5: Chow Smith Wade is out. 634 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 3: He was already a special teamer that they converted the 635 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 3: corner That leaves Dane Jackson and Duke Marriott tech Theratrix 636 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 3: taking a spot. And only one of those names is 637 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 3: from Key and Peel Well, I know which one. Jalen 638 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 3: McMillan has scored in three straight games. His matchup is 639 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 3: very good and the Bucks definitely have something to play for. 640 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:53,239 Speaker 4: Uh. 641 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 3: He's made a few rookie mistakes, but the talent is 642 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 3: is good and the opportunities, more importantly have been there. 643 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 3: With seven and seven targets in the last three weeks. 644 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 3: I will give a C grade to McMillan if you 645 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 3: lost a guy like CD Lamb for the season, because 646 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 3: McMillan should see some extra targets. 647 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 2: With Kate Oughten out this week, I think I think 648 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 2: you're under undervaluing McMillan. I think he's got the opportunity 649 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 2: now a very big game. 650 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 3: It's just if you have a championship roster, I gotta 651 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 3: think you got better wide receiver options than this. It 652 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 3: would be a really bold strategy to start Kate Outen 653 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 3: this week, by the way, he's out, I know, really 654 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 3: really bold. 655 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, bold strategy at yeah. 656 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 2: Oh you don't say it took me a minute.

Ken lightning strike 690 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 4: twice did Giants have the second worst run defense in 691 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 4: the entire NFL. Week eighteen of last season was the 692 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 4: last time a running back did not hit double digit 693 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 4: PPR points against the Bryants. Okay, so we got a 694 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 4: hard a there on, mister Taylor, I might even do 695 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 4: my Ard Verk. I might even do Mike Bondo. 696 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 2: Brian's not here. He normally is Fantasy Fonsie. You want 697 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 2: to give out the Fantasy Fonsie. 698 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 6: Brian show, This one's for you, Brian. Shout out to Brian. 699 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 6: Michael Pittman, he's Michael. 700 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 4: Well, we're gonna do it, Michael pitt We're going to 701 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 4: do another podcast sies onnight. 702 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 2: Whether or not Michael Pittman is in fact Michael pitch. 703 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 4: Maybe one of the episodes of the Harrison podcast that 704 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 4: we're doing, will do like parallels between him and Pittman, 705 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 4: but bench Josh downs. I like this one actually for Josh. 706 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 4: About to give him a sea, but he gets a 707 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 4: green light here. The Giants are terrible against slot receivers 708 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 4: twenty eighth in completion percentage against, thirty first interception rate, 709 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 4: thirty first in passer rating allowed to opposing slots. But 710 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 4: give him a ce Drew lock bench Tyrone Tracy, I'll 711 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 4: give him a see he's playing through an ankle injury 712 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 4: officially questionable. He is trending towards playing eleven touches and 713 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 4: seventeen Fantasy points last week, and he has exactly eleven 714 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 4: touches in three of his last four games. 715 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 6: Sort of his floor as. 716 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 4: Far as the volume goes. He has also scored a 717 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,479 Speaker 4: touchdown in three of his last four games, and. 718 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 2: That receiving touchdown last week beautiful in the back of 719 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 2: the end zone. 720 00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 1: Yeah. 721 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 2: Tell he's a converted receiver. When you see him catch 722 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 2: passes like the one Tyro Tracy coot last. 723 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 4: Year, you can tell he learned how to play the 724 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 4: wide receiver position at the University of Iowa. That's how 725 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 4: we do it there Baby the tight end play reb 726 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 4: z Avni and he has fourteen plus fantasy points in 727 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 4: seven of his last eleven games. 728 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 6: Decent matchup here as well. 729 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,720 Speaker 4: The Colts defense has allowed the eighth most fantasy points 730 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 4: per game and fifth most yards to running backs this season. 731 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,240 Speaker 6: Malik Neighbors is an a must start. 732 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 4: He'd be practiced on Friday for anyone curious with the toe. 733 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 2: They hoping that Melik Neighbors plays. Yes, but I'm nervous about. 734 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 4: This and the last one Wandale Robinson gave him a sea. 735 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 4: He's coming off his second best game of the season. 736 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 4: It was against the falcons abomination of a pass defense, 737 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:44,879 Speaker 4: but he did have seven catches for sixty two years, 738 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 4: eleven targets and at least nine targets in three consecutive 739 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 4: games for Wandale Robinson. The Colts defense is tied for 740 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,320 Speaker 4: eighth fewest points per game allowed two wide receivers this year, 741 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 4: and in Indianapolis's last four games, only Kelvin Ridley has 742 00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 4: crossed the seventy five receiving yard mark. 743 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:01,919 Speaker 6: I'm gonna give one Dale Robinson a seat. 744 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 2: You're more charitable than I him. B Jhon Robinson and 745 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 2: the seasons it is, he's not going to be giving. 746 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,399 Speaker 2: I don't believe Falcons take on the Commanders. Bjon gets 747 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 2: is an obvious a and his box scores really didn't 748 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 2: show it last week. But Bjhon Robinson, Man, you looked fantastic, 749 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 2: making the most of every run. But I do want 750 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 2: you to know the Commanders have allowed the fewest receptions 751 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 2: to running backs and that really caps the upside for Bjon. 752 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 2: Still in a grade, But I don't see. I don't 753 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 2: think Jon is going to be explosive in this game. 754 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 2: Let's go to the passing game for the Falcons. At 755 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 2: Michael Pennix. I liked what I saw. His poise was 756 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,919 Speaker 2: outstanding for a first start quarterback last week. He looked 757 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 2: like your veteran honestly, and his arm strength a welcome 758 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 2: sight after watching Kirk labor to get the ball down 759 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 2: field earlier in the year. Washington has faced a lot 760 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 2: of backup quarterbacks of late Kenny Pickett, Spencer Rattler, Will 761 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 2: Levis since Benched Cooper Rush, and they all scored one 762 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 2: or two touchdowns. So there's an opportunity for Pennix. Here 763 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 2: does a via second quarterback for your championship team C 764 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:08,760 Speaker 2: grade on him. Let's go to Drake London. London not huge, 765 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 2: but he's on the bigger side, and bigger bodied guys 766 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 2: have had the most consistent success against the Commanders all year, 767 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 2: and that's why they traded for Marshall Latimore as they 768 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 2: needed a bigger bodied cornerback to try to slow down 769 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 2: these bigger receivers. And Marshall Latimer has been ruled out 770 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 2: of this game, so he's not gonna be there. That 771 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 2: means I like Drake London. I'm moving him to a 772 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 2: B grade in this game. Aj Brown, as another big 773 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 2: bodied receiver, last week, had a very good game against 774 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 2: the Washington Commanders. Darnel Mooney back on the map with 775 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 2: Michael Pennix as his quarterback after languishing under Cousins. Pennix 776 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 2: immediately unlocked Mooney for five catches and a deep sixteen 777 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 2: yard average throw distance. Speed guys don't fare as well 778 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 2: against the Falcons as the bigger guys, like I mentioned 779 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 2: just a moment ago with Drake London, but Nick Westbrook 780 00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,399 Speaker 2: Akine scored twice a few weeks ago, so I think 781 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 2: Mooney's got a chance and I've got a SE grade 782 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 2: on him. And then I gotta mention Kyle Pitts. Not 783 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:07,720 Speaker 2: that you're going to start Kyle, but his interception last week, 784 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 2: Oh my god, he turned a perfect pass from Michael 785 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 2: Pennix right in the bread basket. 786 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 5: And a touchdown and all like, yeah. 787 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 2: That's right, had a touchdown in which Pitt's got two 788 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 2: hands on the ball and then just basically handed it 789 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 2: to a defender. Unbelievable, one of the one of the 790 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,360 Speaker 2: most inexcusable interceptions I've ever seen. 791 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 6: Can we do an episode on the podcast. 792 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 2: About Kyle Pitts as well, said, Kyle Pitts. 793 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 4: Single handedly got a terrible quarterback, Kyle Trask. I hope 794 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 4: he and his family are not listening to this, but 795 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 4: he got him drafted in the second round because Kyle 796 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 4: pits was so good at Florida. 797 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,759 Speaker 2: And Mike Evans did that to Johnny Manziel. 798 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 4: True, yeah, Johnny Manziel, Yeah, that first round paycheck should 799 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 4: go right right to. 800 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 2: Mike Evans, right, because he bailed out all those awful throws. 801 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, he was just it was like Dennis Rodman rebounding. 802 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, great, way to put it on the Washington side. 803 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 2: Terry McLaurin a grade and ary after taking down the Eagles, 804 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 2: McLaurin feels like a safe A grade. Falcons shadow with 805 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 2: cornerback aj Trell regularly, which makes sense as Mike Hughes 806 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,240 Speaker 2: would be the other option, and that's not great. Terrell 807 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 2: pretty good, not elite. He gives up a seventy percent 808 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 2: catch rate. Where Terrell's really good is after the catch. 809 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 2: He gives up just ten yards per game after the catch, 810 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 2: and that's not a lot. So mclaurin's still an A 811 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:27,800 Speaker 2: grade here, but I don't think he's got monster upside 812 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 2: in this one. But you know what it does is 813 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels statement game for Jade and Daniels last week, 814 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 2: five touchdowns against the Philly defense, and here comes the Falcons. 815 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 2: They've allowed the most passing touchdowns in the league this 816 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 2: despite facing Drew Lock and Desmond Ridder of the past 817 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 2: two weeks, and even those guys managed touchdowns. The last 818 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 2: starting quarterback to play against the Falcons was Sam Darnold 819 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 2: and he threw five touchdowns. So I like Jayden Daniels 820 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 2: with an A grade in this one. And the only 821 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,800 Speaker 2: the guy that you really care about for the Washington Commanders, 822 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,280 Speaker 2: Brian Robinson who's honestly looked pretty bad for two months. 823 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,480 Speaker 2: He's topped three point nine yards per carry in just 824 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 2: one game since way back in Week eight. He's entirely 825 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:16,279 Speaker 2: touchdown dependent, and quietly, the Falcons have a pretty good 826 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 2: run defense. Five of the past six opposing teams haven't 827 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 2: had a runner top even fifty nine yards. In the 828 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 2: last two months, Atlanta has only given up two touchdowns 829 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 2: to running backs. Runners are beating the Falcons through the air, 830 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 2: but that's not Brian Robinson at all. 831 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 3: Guy does not catch, so it sounds like a bench grade. 832 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 3: That sounds like a C grade. I can't believe you're 833 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 3: giving him a Sea. 834 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 2: Because he could get it well, he probably won't. 835 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 6: Get it hit. 836 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 5: It sounded all negative. 837 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 2: I know it was all name. It's a bench he 838 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,879 Speaker 2: gets enough, he touches the ball enough. I'm still giving 839 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:47,400 Speaker 2: him the secret. 840 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,720 Speaker 3: You're gonna go down with Brian Robinson on your fantasy roster? 841 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 2: Yikes, I don't want to, no Sea grade. Let's go 842 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 2: up sticking like Sea grade Las Vegas Raiders. You want 843 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 2: to go down with the start any Raiders other than 844 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 2: rock Back taking on the Saints. These are two offenses 845 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 2: in dreadful shape. 846 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 3: You know, championship level fantasy teams have one thing in common. 847 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 3: No Raiders or Saints on their rosters. Maybe with the 848 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 3: exception of Brock Bowers. He's the only guy you can 849 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 3: start in this game. And I'm not overly excited about 850 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,839 Speaker 3: this matchup. The Saints defense does one thing well. It's 851 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 3: covered the tight end. They've only allowed one score on 852 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 3: the air. Still, Bowers is seeing twenty five percent of 853 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 3: his team's targets on the season, twenty four percent of 854 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 3: the air yards, which is super impressive for a tight end. 855 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,240 Speaker 3: Even in a bad matchup. It's a B grade for Bowers. 856 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 3: You're not chasing Alexander Madison or a mirror Abdullah. They're 857 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 3: both on the bench. If you were wildly desperate for 858 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 3: running back and they were both available, I guess Madison, 859 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,400 Speaker 3: but don't do that. On the other side, Alvin Kamara 860 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 3: is out, so you're not starting Kendre Miller, who split 861 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,840 Speaker 3: snaps with Jordan Mims and Jamal Williams and it was 862 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 3: like a forty forty twenty split. 863 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 5: Absolutely gross. 864 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 3: And you might be tempted to go with Juwan Johnson 865 00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 3: because it's a good matchup and there's no one else 866 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 3: to throw too. But Spencer Rattler is completing like half 867 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 3: or cewer of his passes, and he's under so much 868 00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 3: Druss too, and he's spreading around an average of one 869 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,919 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty passing yards per game in his last 870 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 3: four games. Yikes, that's not even enough to bat an 871 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 3: eyelash at. No Saints are startable. 872 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 2: Chris Olb may may return for this game, but it 873 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 2: doesn't matter because it's Spencer Rattler. The whole offense is 874 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 2: completely broke. Why would they do that? Yeah? 875 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 6: Why Bra? 876 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 5: There's no reason, Chris? 877 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 2: What if he gets hurt? Come on, I know that's 878 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 2: put him up like that. I'm not saying i'd bring 879 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,239 Speaker 2: him back. I'm just saying the Saints are saying you 880 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 2: might play in this game. 881 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 3: You know, I have a question for Thor because he 882 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,799 Speaker 3: talks about Iowa and he talks about Kansas all the time. 883 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 3: Inevitably they're going to end up playing in the College 884 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 3: Football Playoff like next year. Probably who are you going 885 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 3: to cheer for in that Iowa Kansas probably seven to 886 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 3: ten matchup? 887 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 5: I would guess. 888 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm happy you asked this because I've I worked 889 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,919 Speaker 4: on my hierarchy a long time ago. It goes undergrad first, 890 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 4: and I'm not just talking about myself, It's got to 891 00:42:58,880 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 4: be for anyone else. 892 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 6: And so it's Kansas that's school at both places the 893 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 6: top of the hierarchy. 894 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 4: So yeah, I would have to root against the grad 895 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 4: school Iowa if that was the matchup to that. And 896 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 4: then we have you know, Minnesota is like the father's 897 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 4: alma mater, and and you know, and that was the 898 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 4: team I grew up with. And then you go and 899 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 4: charges that's what I meant by father figure, Yeah, my radio. Yeah, 900 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 4: and then you know, and then you go down from there, brothers, 901 00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 4: alma mater, sisters ol mater. I go down one hundred 902 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 4: and thirty four teams. Wisconsin, you have, you have. 903 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,720 Speaker 2: A hierarchy listed of one hundred and thirty four. 904 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 6: So I know in any individual matchup who I'm going for. 905 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, I really want to see this list.

Our number two breaking down all the 919 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 2: rest of the games slated for this weekend. When we 920 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:44,319 Speaker 2: come back our number two Fantasy Football Weekly. I am 921 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,919 Speaker 2: Paul Charchie and my co hosts are Matt Harrison and Thornystrom. 922 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 2: Follow us on x I'm at Paul Charchie and Matt 923 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 2: is at Explosive Output and Thor is at thor Ku. 924 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 4: Rock Shard number one right, number one, number one hierarchy 925 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 4: asband always will be a tough question. 926 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 2: This is a game we call three tough questions. Nobody 927 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 2: ever takes a quarterback with the first overall pick of 928 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 2: their drafts. Yet Lamar Jackson, almost irrespective of your scoring system, 929 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 2: is going to be the highest scoring player this year. 930 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 2: Should Lamar Jackson be the first pick overall in fantasy 931 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,240 Speaker 2: drafts next year, Matt. 932 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 3: If not now, when he's got one more game to go, 933 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 3: and he's already set career marks for passing yards, in 934 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 3: passing scores, throwing thirty nine touchdown passes to only four interceptions. 935 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 3: For fantasy points just from passing only Joe Burrow is 936 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,480 Speaker 3: anywhere close to what Lamar has done this year, and 937 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 3: he's basically giving you Ramandre Stevenson on the ground two, 938 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 3: a low level RB two or flex guy just from 939 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,960 Speaker 3: his ground game. So you get a top two quarterback 940 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,360 Speaker 3: and a top twenty rusher. That's enough of a difference 941 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:53,880 Speaker 3: maker to take it number one overall. But next year 942 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,440 Speaker 3: could be really fun at the at pick one to 943 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,760 Speaker 3: one because you could take Lamar, you could take Josh Allen. 944 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 3: Saquon's probably in that conversation. I think Jamar, Chase, Justin, Jefferson, 945 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 3: and Puka are all in the conversation, and maybe even 946 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 3: brock Bauers. Yeah, we could have We could have this 947 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 3: a few shows again. We could have like seven or 948 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,359 Speaker 3: eight different guys that could go number one next year. 949 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 3: It's gonna make the preseason shows a lot more fun. 950 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 2: And it really is to not have the obvious number 951 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,439 Speaker 2: one that everybody is taking, and it will be great 952 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 2: and it's all over the place position wise too, great point, 953 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 2: great point. This is gonna it's shaping up next year 954 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 2: to be the perfect year to be at the back 955 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,399 Speaker 2: of the first round. Sure, because you're gonna get somebody 956 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 2: who could legitimately go as the first pack. 957 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 5: Or the middle of the round. I just listed like 958 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,680 Speaker 5: six or seven guys that you could get, Like, that's fantastic. 959 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 2: Wait, I just tip my hand a little bit out. 960 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,840 Speaker 2: I think Thor nobody ever takes a quarterback with the 961 00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 2: first overall pick. What about Lamar Jackson for next year? 962 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:52,320 Speaker 4: And you guys didn't even mention Kamani Vidal, Yeah, the 963 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 4: obvious yes when you're going through I love without saying no. 964 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,759 Speaker 4: I mean, from from my time with this show, I 965 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 4: have a sneaking suspicion that this is going to be 966 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 4: a yes from you church M. I feel like I'm 967 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 4: being set to walk into a trap and then all 968 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 4: I answer no, and then right after you'll be like no, 969 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 4: the right answer is yeah. 970 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 3: Oh. 971 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 5: Thor is still new enough where he cares if his 972 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 5: answer is right or wrong. 973 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 4: I feel like I'm like a try hard guy. I 974 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 4: always will I'm gonna say I'm gonna say no. 975 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 6: I'm going to say no. You can say no. I'm 976 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:24,200 Speaker 6: gonna say no. 977 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:29,320 Speaker 2: Okay, I don't think any running back. I'll preface this 978 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 2: by saying, I don't think in most leagues. I don't 979 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 2: believe a running back is going to go first because 980 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:37,920 Speaker 2: so many of the running backs that are dominating this 981 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 2: year are high mileage, older running backs, and I think 982 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 2: there's gonna be a lot of worry, like, is this 983 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 2: the year where the cliff hits even Sakwan Barkley, which 984 00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 2: even though it's the year. 985 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 4: Of the running back, And it's funny how cyclical things are, 986 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 4: because we have an insane running back class in this 987 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,839 Speaker 4: next Yeah and April, this most act one we've had 988 00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:00,879 Speaker 4: in multiple years. A couple the other position, of course, 989 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 4: are down, but the running back one way up. 990 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,360 Speaker 2: And there are there have been years in the past 991 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 2: where I've banged the drum for first overall pick to 992 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 2: be a rookie running back. Isekiel Elliott's first year, I 993 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 2: had him miss the first time Super High went early his. 994 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 5: I remember a Clyde Edwards layer. 995 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 2: I had a first round greade on him. 996 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 4: Do you remember an Ashton genty? Where do we think 997 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 4: he's going now, he's gonna be good? 998 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 2: Well, depends on the Landers, of course. Phi Let's just 999 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 2: assume he goes to Dallas at twelve or wherever they're 1000 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:27,799 Speaker 2: going to pick. Now, well, it maybe like ten, now, yeah, 1001 00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 2: I mean it's got to be high. It's he'll he'll 1002 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 2: probably be close to a first rounder. 1003 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:34,759 Speaker 4: I think he should be a top five pick if 1004 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 4: that was the case, if he drops it, because where 1005 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 4: did Bijeon go in his rookie year? 1006 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 6: He was first round? Okay? Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I 1007 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 6: think is better than Jean. 1008 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:45,239 Speaker 2: That he probably is. 1009 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 6: As a matter of fact, he's insane. 1010 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase is going to go one one in a 1011 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 2: lot of leagues, and for good reason. He's gonna win 1012 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,759 Speaker 2: the Triple Crown this year. Receptions, yards and touchdowns, but 1013 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 2: that's it. He's had an amazing season and he's got 1014 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow. Where's the risk in taking Jamar Chase at 1015 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:03,800 Speaker 2: number one? It's all zero, But Lamar Jackson is special. 1016 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 2: I always try. I do not get I do not 1017 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 2: fall into this thing where I can not take a 1018 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 2: quarterback in some particular spot. But we all tend to 1019 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,799 Speaker 2: feel like I can find a quarterback. How many times 1020 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 2: have you said that to yourself? I can get I 1021 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 2: can get a quarterback. 1022 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 4: It's what general managers say in the draft about running backs. 1023 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 4: It's like, we'll save that for in a. 1024 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 3: Standard fantasy league. You can find a quarterback. Ten is 1025 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 3: still pretty good. 1026 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,920 Speaker 6: We got a Jayden Daniels this year. Yeah, Jaden dan 1027 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 6: We will mind him every year. 1028 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go no. But I don't have any problem 1029 00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 2: with anybody who takes Lamar Jackson with the first overall pick. 1030 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 2: I don't think you're gonna regret it at all. But 1031 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 2: I don't think that's gonna be the right answer. 1032 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 6: Tough question Number two is. 1033 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 2: Cooper cup cooked? We go to Thorneistro. 1034 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 6: He's not cooked. He's feelinged aging out. He's got a 1035 00:49:57,760 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 6: couple more years. 1036 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,239 Speaker 2: Are you just picking other white slot receivers right. 1037 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,799 Speaker 6: Now, Brick? Are you just looking at things? 1038 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 4: Are are you just naming white slot receivers in the 1039 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,520 Speaker 4: room with us right now? I think he's gonna have 1040 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 4: like two years where he can choose whether he wants 1041 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 4: to get one hundred plus targets with one of the 1042 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 4: crappiest teams in the NFL, or if he wants to 1043 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 4: play at the string that way, or if he wants 1044 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,000 Speaker 4: to be like the third banana guy and Thiland didn't 1045 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 4: want to be the third banana guy. 1046 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 2: Okay, Matt is Cooper Cup cooked? 1047 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 3: That's the shortest tough question of all time, by the way, Actually, 1048 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 3: it's been two straight bad games. One against San Francisco, 1049 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:35,799 Speaker 3: which was one of the best pass defense of the league, 1050 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 3: and there was also driving rain most of the game. 1051 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:39,840 Speaker 3: Last week was just kind of a gross game against 1052 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 3: the Jets. The Rams won dirty, it was cold, and 1053 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 3: Pooka's been so good. So we're just looking at cups 1054 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:50,759 Speaker 3: two terrible games last two games at SOFI Stadium five 1055 00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 3: for ninety two and a score against the Bills eight 1056 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,799 Speaker 3: for sixty and one against the Eagles. So I can't 1057 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 3: imagine he completely lost it in the course of two weeks, 1058 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:01,080 Speaker 3: but it's probably fair to punish him down your draft 1059 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 3: board a little bit next season. No, he's not cooked yet, though. 1060 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 2: The baffling part about last week's bummer game from Cooper 1061 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,359 Speaker 2: Cup and what I can't quake it over and why 1062 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:13,560 Speaker 2: I put this question in here Rams are playing the Jets. 1063 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 2: The Jets slot corner is Michael Carter and he's great, 1064 00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:20,720 Speaker 2: but he's out for this game. The backup is Isaiah Oliver. 1065 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:25,959 Speaker 2: In years past, Sean McVay would have peppered Cooper Cup 1066 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:30,879 Speaker 2: with fourteen targets against a backup slot cornerback. Cooper Cup 1067 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:35,000 Speaker 2: got three. Yeah, what does Sean McVay know? What is 1068 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,799 Speaker 2: he ahead of the curve on that we don't know? Yes, 1069 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:39,799 Speaker 2: pook and a Coup is great, but that doesn't mean 1070 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:42,839 Speaker 2: you throw three times to Cooper Cup in a close 1071 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:44,800 Speaker 2: game against a backup slot cornerback. 1072 00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 5: Maybe Cooper Cup is hurt. 1073 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 2: Maybe he is, and maybe that's going to be ultimately 1074 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 2: the answer on this. I think I think Cooper Cup 1075 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:55,640 Speaker 2: is cooked, and I think next year we're gonna see 1076 00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:58,839 Speaker 2: the big, big drop off. Okay, and I think I'm 1077 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:00,839 Speaker 2: going yes on this. I don't like what I'm seeing 1078 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:03,239 Speaker 2: right now now. Could be proven wrong. They coast into 1079 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 2: the playoffs. I hope I am wrong. Cooper Cup's awesome. 1080 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,399 Speaker 2: We love Cooper Cup. I don't like what I've seen 1081 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 2: this year. 1082 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:09,240 Speaker 6: Feeland is the correct answer. 1083 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 2: Eland quetcham number three in the Fantasy Championship you're an underdog, 1084 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 2: do you try to split the pot with the other team? 1085 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 3: We begin with Matt, I mean, sure, why not. The 1086 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:27,240 Speaker 3: overdog is gonna say no, but at least you tried. Also, 1087 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:30,080 Speaker 3: maybe if you're not in the Fantasy Championship, you should 1088 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 3: still see if the winner wants to split the pot 1089 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 3: with you, maybe you can appeal to their generosity. 1090 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 5: During the holidays. I've never done this. 1091 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:39,640 Speaker 3: I've never been in a league where the pot was split. 1092 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 3: In fact, I play in a lot of Empire leagues 1093 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:44,359 Speaker 3: where we're specifically looking to cash out a huge pot. 1094 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 3: And I just want to say shout out to our 1095 00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 3: former Fantasy Football Weekly co host Christian Peterson, who, according 1096 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 3: to MFL has an eighty four percent chance at winning 1097 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:57,840 Speaker 3: our Empire League and the old twelve thousand, two hundred 1098 00:52:57,840 --> 00:52:59,760 Speaker 3: and twenty five dollars in the Empire pot. 1099 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:01,520 Speaker 2: And I want to alert the irs to that, Wow, 1100 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,320 Speaker 2: this is the oldest Empire league in the world and 1101 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:08,759 Speaker 2: Christian Peterson is very likely to take it down in. 1102 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:12,520 Speaker 5: Year I think it's year eleven or twelve, eleven, twelve. 1103 00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, very very good team. And my team finally just 1104 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 2: stacked for a run and it's all gonna end right here. Hmm, 1105 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,880 Speaker 2: completely bitter about that. Let's go back to the matchups. 1106 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 2: We begin with the New York Jets taking on the 1107 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:28,560 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bill. 1108 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:31,440 Speaker 5: Did thor want to answer the tough question? 1109 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 6: I want to, Yeah, I have. I have ardent opinions 1110 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:37,840 Speaker 6: on the on the tough question Fantasy Championship. 1111 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:39,960 Speaker 2: You're an underdog, you try to split the pot with 1112 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 2: the other team. 1113 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,920 Speaker 4: Church is having a tough a tough final team is hard? 1114 00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:47,400 Speaker 4: You know you've hit the rookie wall Church, Yeah, he 1115 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 4: sure has. The answer is of course. And I am 1116 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 4: super binary with this type of thing, Like if I 1117 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,480 Speaker 4: think I have less than a fifty chance to win, 1118 00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:59,879 Speaker 4: I'm going to offer this foot every time it has 1119 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 4: free spin of the wheel to potentially win free implied value. 1120 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:06,359 Speaker 4: Whereas if I think I even a fifty one percent chance, 1121 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 4: so when I will not split. But the last thing 1122 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 4: I want to say about this, you have to respect 1123 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:15,080 Speaker 4: everyone's decision without question and exception when this topic comes up. 1124 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:17,320 Speaker 6: No guilt trips, no follows, no reasoning. 1125 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,960 Speaker 4: You're well within your reason or your rights to extend 1126 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 4: an offer or accept or to climb one on the 1127 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 4: other side, as is every person that you're playing with. 1128 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,760 Speaker 6: This is a Golden rule type scenario. You freaking cowards. 1129 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 6: Stop it. You wouldn't. You don't split, ever, you don't split. 1130 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,800 Speaker 2: Really, I never split. I never have either, but I 1131 00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:38,360 Speaker 2: always I think, go for it. Baby. 1132 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 5: Now I'm gonna just ask people to split money with me. 1133 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 2: No thor. 1134 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 6: You're right, you know, I. 1135 00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:44,759 Speaker 2: Don't know what money means to you versus what money 1136 00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:46,479 Speaker 2: means to Map versus jazz. 1137 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:49,040 Speaker 4: Probably in a fifty team college fantas football league with 1138 00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 4: no duplicates. It is the biggest fantasy league that I 1139 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:53,480 Speaker 4: know of that does not have duplicate plate fifty. 1140 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,839 Speaker 6: Yes, that's it's a fairly fairly large pot. 1141 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,760 Speaker 4: And one year, unlike in my guillotine league against my coworkers, 1142 00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:02,719 Speaker 4: I'm made the championship in this, okay, And we we 1143 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 4: did a tiered split where it was like we we 1144 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,760 Speaker 4: you know, sort of shortened the distance between first and second. 1145 00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:09,280 Speaker 6: We didn't. 1146 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 4: It was the winners still got the higher amount, but 1147 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 4: it was much closer. So sometimes you know, you know, 1148 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:16,840 Speaker 4: we'll get into some negotiations. You want to keep the 1149 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:20,360 Speaker 4: prize structure. We could we could do something here. You know, 1150 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:22,680 Speaker 4: we're consenting adults. 1151 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:25,759 Speaker 2: I say, go try to win. That's what I say. Go, 1152 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,239 Speaker 2: you know, go go Hill Mary, go try to win. 1153 00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 2: To get down Herb Brooks over there, Herb Brooks. 1154 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, oh I like that. 1155 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 2: Going to my motivational speech just now. 1156 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:38,160 Speaker 5: You're wearing a lake I mean, yeah, yeah, you sat. 1157 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:38,680 Speaker 6: That one for me. 1158 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I understand. The Jets are taking on the Bills. 1159 00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, they they sure are. Aaron Rodgers, We're gonna 1160 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 4: give him a bee. He needs one touchdown pass to 1161 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,399 Speaker 4: become the fifth player in NFL history to to reach 1162 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:56,240 Speaker 4: five hundred. I guess I struggled last week against the Rams. 1163 00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,320 Speaker 4: Just had just a shade south of fifteen fantasy points, 1164 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 4: dealing with an MCL injury in his knee. 1165 00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:03,880 Speaker 6: And also speaking of injuries. 1166 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 4: The Jets just placed their rookie left tackle of Shanto 1167 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 4: a foot injury on injured reserve outside. But I'm gonna 1168 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,359 Speaker 4: give I'm gonna give Rogers a bee as I'm going 1169 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 4: to with Breecee Hall thirteen fantasy points in each of 1170 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:17,000 Speaker 4: the last two games. The Bills have struggled against running 1171 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:20,399 Speaker 4: backs all year, particularly guys that can catch the ball 1172 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:23,400 Speaker 4: a little bit. Buffalo is top two in the NFL 1173 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,719 Speaker 4: in catches allowed to running backs, receiving yards allowed to 1174 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,719 Speaker 4: opposing running backs, and then total touchdowns given up two 1175 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:32,799 Speaker 4: running backs, and overall, Buffalo's defense has allowed the third 1176 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,920 Speaker 4: most fantasy points per game to running backs. So breesaw, 1177 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:39,480 Speaker 4: I'll give a bee DeVante Adams. He's a mustard an 1178 00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:40,719 Speaker 4: automatic at this point. 1179 00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 6: I think it just is what it is. 1180 00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 4: Garrett Wilson, We're gonna give him a bee wide receiver 1181 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,439 Speaker 4: fourteen in fantasy this year. He needs thirteen receiving yards 1182 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:50,440 Speaker 4: to hit a thousand for the third straight season. 1183 00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 2: But he's just getting smoked by Adams right now. And 1184 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:56,920 Speaker 2: it's been this way for like five six weeks. He's 1185 00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:58,279 Speaker 2: just not getting any loucks charged. 1186 00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 4: Sometimes you got to take the fight to the and 1187 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:02,239 Speaker 4: that is what he did with the media this week, 1188 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 4: and he said that he wants more targets a. 1189 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 2: Good Yeah, sokey Wheel gets the grease. 1190 00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:10,319 Speaker 6: I don't think Rogers cares, though, right Like it's like, yeah, 1191 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:12,239 Speaker 6: I mean maybe he tried to talk privately. He's like, 1192 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 6: maybe I'll try the media. I don't think Rogers cares. 1193 00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:17,800 Speaker 4: He has Rogers, to his credit's throwing the ball thirty 1194 00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 4: three times so far his way Garrett Wilson's way in December. 1195 00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 6: So but we'll get We'll give him a bet. 1196 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:26,480 Speaker 4: And then I had to shout out Tyler as I 1197 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:28,280 Speaker 4: call him Gronklin, Tyler Conklin. 1198 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 6: I gave him a c he during the middle of 1199 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 6: the season. 1200 00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:33,560 Speaker 4: Remember it was like he had the games in September 1201 00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 4: where it was like ten targets and then like it 1202 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 4: was like the middle of the season. He like got 1203 00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:39,840 Speaker 4: phase out of the offense when they got Devanta. But 1204 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 4: the last three games, Conklin has been targeted seventeen times. 1205 00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 4: In those three games, thirty plus receiving yards all three times. 1206 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 4: Last week was the Nader is an a deer, the 1207 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:51,080 Speaker 4: bester is at the world. What's opposite of the deer? 1208 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 4: Apex apex The apex of those three games was last 1209 00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:57,760 Speaker 4: week against the Rams, five catches for fifty nine yards. 1210 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,920 Speaker 4: We thank you rhetorician over there and Conklin. Gronklin is 1211 00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 4: a flyer option if you are desperate moving over to 1212 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 4: the Bill's side. Josh all On a must art obvious 1213 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 4: James Cook b I was between A B and and 1214 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 4: A here one hundred and twenty six total yards and 1215 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 4: two touchdowns last week against the Patriots and over the 1216 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 4: past but over the past four weeks he is RB 1217 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:18,840 Speaker 4: thirty and a thing that I love to look at 1218 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:21,760 Speaker 4: now the Fantasy Life utilization score. 1219 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:23,960 Speaker 6: Shout out to Dwayne even though you know he was 1220 00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 6: I didn't mention it before. 1221 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,360 Speaker 4: He's kind of mean to be on the show this week, 1222 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 4: but it's interesting to look at those metrics. Ty Johnson 1223 00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:34,400 Speaker 4: and Ray Davis have been stealing more field time. Cook 1224 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 4: this was really interesting. 1225 00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 6: He has only played forty two percent of Buffalo's offensive 1226 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 6: snaps since the week twelve by but he has remained 1227 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 6: the fantasy asset by scoring sixteen touchdowns last year compared 1228 00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 6: to six last year. Khalil Shakir b Last week. 1229 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:51,120 Speaker 4: Shakiir had his second sub eight fantasy point showing in 1230 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 4: a game since Week seven, and I suppose third since 1231 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,080 Speaker 4: Week six because that's when the Jets held him to 1232 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 4: two catches for nineteen yards. Shaki is at fewer than 1233 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 4: forty receiving yards in three of his last four, no 1234 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 4: more than eight targets in any of the last four games. 1235 00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:07,120 Speaker 4: The Jets have surrendered the fourth fewest fantasy points to 1236 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:10,160 Speaker 4: wide receivers in the NFL. But I gave him a 1237 00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 4: bee because I hate the other receivers here, and so 1238 00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 4: I'm basically just you know, I do the thing with 1239 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:16,560 Speaker 4: the Packers where I distribute my seas to all them. 1240 00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 4: I'm going different with the Bells, and I'm gonna push 1241 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 4: all my chips to one of them because I'm gonna 1242 00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 4: tell you to keep Amari Cooper, en key on Coleman 1243 00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 4: on your bench. Yeah, Cooper won catch in the last 1244 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 4: two games combined. And then Coleman has been playing sixty 1245 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,160 Speaker 4: plus percent of snaps last two games. Balls are not 1246 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 4: coming his way. And then also I want to say 1247 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,040 Speaker 4: about that the Jets have the third best They have 1248 00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 4: the third best per play defense in the NFL, but 1249 00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:41,480 Speaker 4: number one in preventing deep touchdown passes, and that is 1250 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:44,840 Speaker 4: key on Coleman's kitchen bench for those Guysdlton Kinkada gave 1251 00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 4: a c number seven amongst tight ends with a twenty 1252 00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 4: one percent target cheer in the NFL. 1253 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 6: This year, despite but despite the Bills. 1254 00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 4: Offense ranking second and touchdowns per game, Kinkaid only has 1255 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 4: two touchdowns himself. He has not had more than fifty 1256 00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 4: three yards or thirteen fans fantasy points in any game 1257 00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,120 Speaker 4: this year, all right, he has a good seventy eight percent. 1258 01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 4: He had a good seventy eight percent catch rate last year, 1259 01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:07,520 Speaker 4: but is dead last among NFL tight ends with a 1260 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 4: fifty eight percent catch rate this year, which means he 1261 01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 4: needs to get an episode in our podcast series as well. 1262 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 4: We are going to investigate the appreciation. 1263 01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 6: Of his ball skills. 1264 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 2: I love it. Speaking of ball skills, I think I've 1265 01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:23,240 Speaker 2: been asked about Jordan Addison and the Fantasy Championship as 1266 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 2: much as any player will break down Packers Vikings and 1267 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 2: whether you can start. 1268 01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:29,400 Speaker 6: Jordan Addison three to three baby game. 1269 01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:50,760 Speaker 2: When we come back to Fantasy Football Week for welcome back, 1270 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:53,840 Speaker 2: a big block all matchups for you, beginning with the 1271 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,200 Speaker 2: Packers taking on the Vikings. I want to start with 1272 01:00:56,280 --> 01:01:01,280 Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs, who'se He's just looks sensational. Everything Green Bay 1273 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:04,760 Speaker 2: wanted in a late December running back They're getting from 1274 01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:07,320 Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs, and he had the luxury of taking the 1275 01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 2: second half of last week's game off completely because the 1276 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:16,080 Speaker 2: Saints were no threat. Minnesota's run defense has lapsed over 1277 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:18,800 Speaker 2: the last month, and that was because their linebacker, Ivan Pace, 1278 01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:22,000 Speaker 2: their middle linebacker was on injured reserve. He's expected to 1279 01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 2: be back for this game. And it's basically this. When 1280 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:28,560 Speaker 2: Ivan Pace plays, the Vikings have the best run defense 1281 01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 2: in the NFL. When he's out, they are right in 1282 01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 2: the middle of the pack. Pace should come back here. 1283 01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 2: That makes it much harder for Jacobs. But he's still 1284 01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:37,920 Speaker 2: Golman so well, and he's going to get a ton 1285 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:40,800 Speaker 2: of caries. He's fresh legged. He's still an A grade 1286 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:43,720 Speaker 2: in this game. The other A grade I've got for 1287 01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 2: the Packers Jaden Reid. Now, you got to pick your 1288 01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:49,240 Speaker 2: spots with Reid right, because he gives you these like 1289 01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,200 Speaker 2: zero catchdows games. 1290 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:53,520 Speaker 4: It's something I would never begin to see. And the 1291 01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:54,760 Speaker 4: rest of them beginning sees two. 1292 01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:58,080 Speaker 2: I think guts for this. The Vikings are getting killed 1293 01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 2: in the slot. That's why I feel confident here. Eighty 1294 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 2: percent of Reeds routes are run from the slot. And 1295 01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 2: here's what slot wide receivers have done to the Vikings 1296 01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 2: in the last month. Jackson Smith and Jigba, Ray, Ray 1297 01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 2: McLeod and Keenan Allen twice averaging thirteen targets, eight catches, 1298 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:20,840 Speaker 2: ninety yards and almost a full touchdown apiece. This is 1299 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,760 Speaker 2: a great opportunity. And in the earlier matchup between Minnesota 1300 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:28,080 Speaker 2: and Green Bay, Jaden Reid seven catches one hundred and 1301 01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 2: thirty nine yards on a touchdown A grade Jayden Reid 1302 01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 2: the other receivers that have letter grades here, it depends 1303 01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 2: a little bit on a Christian Watson camp Kenner cannot 1304 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:39,080 Speaker 2: play and he's shaping up as a game time decisions. 1305 01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 2: You're gonna want to watch this one. 1306 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,960 Speaker 6: But we think probably he's not trending towards is he. 1307 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, I don't. I don't know. But if 1308 01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 2: Watson is out, I like Dobbs a lot better, and 1309 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 2: that brings Dantavian Wickson as just a flyer. The Vikings 1310 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:56,880 Speaker 2: do give up a lot. In fact, the most fantasy 1311 01:02:56,920 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 2: points to wide receivers Vikings, So there are opportunity he's here. Yeah, 1312 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,680 Speaker 2: Wicks scored twice in the earlier matchup. Dobbs targeted eight 1313 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:07,640 Speaker 2: times in the earlier matchup against the Vikings. So if 1314 01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:10,680 Speaker 2: Watson is out, I like Dobbs and Wicks at C grades. 1315 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 2: If Watson comes in, I guess they could all get 1316 01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:17,440 Speaker 2: thorn istrom C grades. But you know, I don't like 1317 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:18,040 Speaker 2: him as much. 1318 01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:20,000 Speaker 5: Thornstrom's patented sea grad. 1319 01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:22,040 Speaker 6: You gotta do the Oprah routine with the season. 1320 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:23,320 Speaker 2: You'll get a se grade. 1321 01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:24,160 Speaker 6: Everybody gets. 1322 01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:28,320 Speaker 2: By the way, Alprah doesn't say you get a car. 1323 01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:30,320 Speaker 2: You get a car. You get a car, and I'll 1324 01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:33,160 Speaker 2: pay the taxes on the car. No, no, she never 1325 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:36,440 Speaker 2: mentions the taxes. Sure, you get a car, but also 1326 01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,240 Speaker 2: we need six thousand dollars in cash for the taxes 1327 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:40,760 Speaker 2: on your car. 1328 01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:41,160 Speaker 3: Come on. 1329 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:42,040 Speaker 2: Oprah mentioned that. 1330 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,840 Speaker 3: Absolutely you got gripes with Oprah giving away cars like 1331 01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:48,919 Speaker 3: fifteen years ago. 1332 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1333 01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:55,240 Speaker 2: Still, it's just stuck in your crawl man. Yes, Tucker 1334 01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:57,760 Speaker 2: Craft expected to play through his hip injury. Vikings are 1335 01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:00,440 Speaker 2: a good tight end defense. They've only allowed one score 1336 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:04,200 Speaker 2: since way back in week number four. Who scored on 1337 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:05,439 Speaker 2: the vikings in Week four? 1338 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:07,120 Speaker 5: Tucker Tucker Craft? 1339 01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 2: You got it yep. Nine targets, six catches, fifty three 1340 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:14,120 Speaker 2: yards and the aforementioned touchdown For Craft, he has topped 1341 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 2: a twenty two percent target rate in three of the 1342 01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:19,480 Speaker 2: last four games remaining involved in this offense. He comes 1343 01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:21,520 Speaker 2: into the C grade here as well, and so that 1344 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:24,920 Speaker 2: leaves us the Jordan love I've given his receivers. A's 1345 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,480 Speaker 2: and three or four C grades. So I've got a 1346 01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:31,960 Speaker 2: B grade on Jordan Love. Now, his fantasy production has 1347 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,960 Speaker 2: been pretty bad for the last basically two months, but 1348 01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:38,120 Speaker 2: it's because the Packers are Steamers, they're all these other teams. 1349 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:42,080 Speaker 2: He's averaging just twenty five passes per game. 1350 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,240 Speaker 6: His efficiency numbers are great, though they are past right, and. 1351 01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 2: So presumably if the twenty five passes turns into say, 1352 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 2: thirty six against ay of the Vikings in which should 1353 01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 2: be a back and forth night fight, that should put 1354 01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:54,800 Speaker 2: Love in a really good spot here. 1355 01:04:55,280 --> 01:04:56,000 Speaker 6: And he's healthy this. 1356 01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:58,040 Speaker 4: Time and he is well, yeah compared to the yeah 1357 01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 4: hewas boy was he gimpy that last mon super game. 1358 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:02,960 Speaker 2: Probably shouldn't have four hundred yards and four touchdowns, but 1359 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:05,800 Speaker 2: he sure didn't. Yeah, So B grade on Jordan Love. 1360 01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:08,600 Speaker 2: Let's go to the Vikings justin Jefferson obvious A grade, 1361 01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 2: but let me mention this, potentially the Packers are going 1362 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:16,400 Speaker 2: to be there, definitely without two of their starting members 1363 01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:18,880 Speaker 2: of their secondary j R. Alexander has been ruled out 1364 01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 2: and their safety Evan Williams ruled out, and they're waiting 1365 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 2: to find out on safety Slock Corner Hybrid Bullard Javon Bullard. 1366 01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:30,400 Speaker 2: He's shaping up as a game time decision, so there 1367 01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 2: could be some real opportunities for both Jordan Addison and 1368 01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:39,960 Speaker 2: Jordan Did I say Justin jeff Justph Jefferson and Jordan Addison. 1369 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:43,080 Speaker 2: There we go Addison since week eleven, you guys want 1370 01:05:43,120 --> 01:05:46,040 Speaker 2: to get you want to guess in Fantasy points scored, 1371 01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:50,200 Speaker 2: where Jordan Addison ranks among wide receivers since week eleven? 1372 01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 6: Free three. I'm gonna say three three. You nail this. 1373 01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:56,360 Speaker 2: It is free three favor three, free three higher than 1374 01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:57,160 Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson. 1375 01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:01,000 Speaker 3: It's amazing the exact moment in our in our Empire 1376 01:06:01,080 --> 01:06:03,600 Speaker 3: League that I traded away Jordan Addison and Bryce Young, 1377 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:07,240 Speaker 3: their careers just magically became since since I. 1378 01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:10,200 Speaker 2: Was on the receiving end of that's going to win the. 1379 01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:13,600 Speaker 4: League, and Kenny Pickett was on the receiving end of 1380 01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:16,840 Speaker 4: a first round selection because of Jordan Verson Addison. 1381 01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:18,560 Speaker 6: That's a great part. I mean, we brought it up 1382 01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:20,840 Speaker 6: for Evans and Mansell. We had to bring that full circle. 1383 01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:24,040 Speaker 2: Adison's separation skills are becoming incredible and he's getting open 1384 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:26,560 Speaker 2: a lot, and like Jefferson, he runs from all parts 1385 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:28,080 Speaker 2: of the field. That puts him on all of the 1386 01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:31,960 Speaker 2: Packers cornerbacks who are all good and Keishawn Nixon's improved 1387 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:34,880 Speaker 2: a lot, but none of them are dominating. H Nixon 1388 01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 2: allowing an eighty two percent catch rate since returning to 1389 01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:40,400 Speaker 2: slot coverage two games ago. It's unclear if he's going 1390 01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:41,840 Speaker 2: to be in the slaughter. He's going to be outside 1391 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:44,760 Speaker 2: for this game. Nevertheless, Addison's become a very safe start 1392 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:47,760 Speaker 2: and he gets a B grade staying with receivers. 1393 01:06:47,880 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 3: T J. 1394 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:52,360 Speaker 2: Hockinson still hasn't scored, and he's been pretty quiet since 1395 01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:54,640 Speaker 2: his return. Overall, I thought we'd have more production out 1396 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:58,320 Speaker 2: of him. The Packers generally give up good games to 1397 01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:02,080 Speaker 2: high end tight ends. Smith George Kittle, Dray McBride, Sam 1398 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:06,880 Speaker 2: Laporta twice averaged six catches seventy five yards, and TJ. 1399 01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:09,240 Speaker 2: Hockinson's right in the ballpark with those guys six and 1400 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 2: seventy five would be great. I've got a C grade 1401 01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 2: on TJ. Hawkins. 1402 01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:14,439 Speaker 6: I would go even higher. 1403 01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:15,200 Speaker 2: I go be great. 1404 01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:17,760 Speaker 6: I think I go be He wasn't in the first one. 1405 01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 4: I think he's a big difference here because this is 1406 01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:23,520 Speaker 4: an area where you can exploit the Packers pass defense. 1407 01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 4: Hawkinson didn't play in the first one. Now he's full speed. 1408 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:28,800 Speaker 4: All the targets have been going. I mean Addison now 1409 01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:31,040 Speaker 4: at the beginning of the season was all Jefferson. Everyone's 1410 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:33,400 Speaker 4: complaining about it. I feel like you can go a 1411 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:36,080 Speaker 4: little bit against tendency. Here more targets to Hawkinson. 1412 01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 6: He can do some damage. 1413 01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:40,400 Speaker 2: I'm with you, B great TJ. Hawkinson. That last part 1414 01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:43,160 Speaker 2: of the passing game of Sam Donald. The Packers' secondary 1415 01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 2: looks invincible on paper, but they have faced some dreadful 1416 01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:50,840 Speaker 2: quarterbacking Spencer Rattler. They got a third of a game 1417 01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:54,880 Speaker 2: on Sam Howell, Brandon Allen. They had Tula in a 1418 01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:57,080 Speaker 2: frigid game in which Tula all just wanted to get 1419 01:07:57,120 --> 01:08:00,240 Speaker 2: on the team less and go home. Donald is our PIB, 1420 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:03,440 Speaker 2: the best passer the Packers have seen all year, and 1421 01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:05,280 Speaker 2: he went for two seventy five and three in the 1422 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 2: earlier meeting and over the past six weeks, Sam Donald 1423 01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 2: fifteen touchdowns, one interception. He's playing great. I've got a 1424 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,639 Speaker 2: B grade on Sam Donald in this game. That leaves 1425 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,040 Speaker 2: us with Aaron Jones. He put up one hundred and 1426 01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:21,880 Speaker 2: thirty nine yards in the earlier revenge game with Green 1427 01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:24,479 Speaker 2: Bay in Green Bay. But the Packers run defense has 1428 01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:26,599 Speaker 2: been very good lately, way better than it was earlier 1429 01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 2: in the season. Over the past six weeks, green Bay 1430 01:08:29,160 --> 01:08:32,720 Speaker 2: ranks number six in run defense success rate, number six 1431 01:08:32,760 --> 01:08:35,559 Speaker 2: in yards per carry aloud, and number three in yards 1432 01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:40,120 Speaker 2: after contact allowed. Now, fortunately, Aaron Jones gets most of 1433 01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:42,000 Speaker 2: the workload, and he has scored in four of the 1434 01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:44,840 Speaker 2: last five games, and over the last five weeks, the 1435 01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:49,240 Speaker 2: Packers have allowed the most running back receptions. I want 1436 01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 2: to think that we're finally going to get Aaron Jones 1437 01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:53,200 Speaker 2: on a big receiving game like we have not seen 1438 01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:58,040 Speaker 2: all season long. All right, Matt, let's go to the 1439 01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:01,240 Speaker 2: Titans taking on the Jaguars. We've already hit a bunch 1440 01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:03,799 Speaker 2: of take a chance on me guys out of this matchup, 1441 01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:06,839 Speaker 2: including Mason Rudolph. You're taking chance on me quarterback? 1442 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,040 Speaker 3: Yeah? And Chicka Konquo was my take a chance on 1443 01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 3: me tight end. Calvin Ridley startable two in the passing game, 1444 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:14,679 Speaker 3: I'll throw a see his way had seventy eight yards 1445 01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:16,840 Speaker 3: in a score last week while Rudolph was just chucking 1446 01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:19,639 Speaker 3: balls against the Colts and the Jags are the worst 1447 01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 3: pass defense out there. They're allowing one hundred and seventy 1448 01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 3: four receiving yards per game to wide receivers. That's the 1449 01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:28,559 Speaker 3: third most in the league. Most of that goes to Ridley. 1450 01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:32,520 Speaker 3: I like Ridley with the C. Tony Pollard hasn't practiced. 1451 01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:32,720 Speaker 5: Yet this week. 1452 01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:36,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a bad sign, which would be fantastic if 1453 01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:38,320 Speaker 3: you're a Taija Spears guy. 1454 01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:38,800 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1455 01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 2: And by the way, we have audio of the spear 1456 01:09:42,840 --> 01:09:45,040 Speaker 2: right there. Well, that's the spear that it's going to 1457 01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:46,439 Speaker 2: go right through your opponent's heart. 1458 01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:46,840 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1459 01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:50,560 Speaker 3: So if Pollard doesn't play, taij Spears is a B 1460 01:09:50,720 --> 01:09:53,600 Speaker 3: grade and it's close to an A grade. Spears has 1461 01:09:53,640 --> 01:09:56,240 Speaker 3: scored four times in the last two weeks. Problem is 1462 01:09:56,360 --> 01:09:59,599 Speaker 3: he's trailing in touch totals to the dinged up Pollard 1463 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:03,280 Speaker 3: by quite a bit. So if Pollard does go, I 1464 01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:05,840 Speaker 3: think you can give them both C grades, but they're 1465 01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:09,400 Speaker 3: closer to bench grades than C grades. The Jags are 1466 01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:11,400 Speaker 3: one of the easiest matchups in the league. Their bottom 1467 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:13,519 Speaker 3: ten in every category against runners. The only thing that 1468 01:10:13,600 --> 01:10:16,519 Speaker 3: can stop the Titans backs is Tony Pollard playing hurt 1469 01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:19,400 Speaker 3: on the Jag side. Tank Bigsby was charged to take 1470 01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:21,639 Speaker 3: a chance on me runner, and I'm leaving Travis Etn 1471 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 3: on the bench. Etn had more snaps than Bigsby last week, 1472 01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:28,760 Speaker 3: but fewer rushing attempts. That doesn't bode well for the 1473 01:10:29,200 --> 01:10:32,040 Speaker 3: split there. So I think the only member of the 1474 01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 3: passing game that you can consider starting is Brian Thomas Junior, 1475 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,519 Speaker 3: who out of all the wide receivers, is he the 1476 01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:38,240 Speaker 3: best of them? 1477 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,360 Speaker 5: Of these rookie wide receivers. 1478 01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,880 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas by a margin? Yeah, I don't think. I 1479 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:45,360 Speaker 2: don't think you can make a case for any other 1480 01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:49,120 Speaker 2: rookie receiver, I mean, outside of Jalen Coker, other than 1481 01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:49,800 Speaker 2: Jale Hooker. 1482 01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:52,519 Speaker 3: Malik Nighbors had a really good start but has tailed 1483 01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:56,400 Speaker 3: off as soon as the quarterbacking went away. Yeah yeah, yeah, 1484 01:10:56,920 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 3: but twenty seven targets in the last two week double 1485 01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:02,519 Speaker 3: digit targets and four straight for Brian Thomas Junior, four 1486 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:04,920 Speaker 3: touchdowns in the last four games, and two straight one 1487 01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:05,720 Speaker 3: hundred yard weeks. 1488 01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:07,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's doing it with Mac Jones. Yeah. 1489 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:10,120 Speaker 3: Uh. Three weeks ago he played these Titans where he 1490 01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:13,200 Speaker 3: had eight and eighty six. This is basically since Trevor 1491 01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:17,040 Speaker 3: Lawrence went down. Mac Jones only has eyes for BTJ 1492 01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:20,519 Speaker 3: with no X in there. He's an A grade and 1493 01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 3: the only guy in the Jags passing game you can start. 1494 01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:27,040 Speaker 2: All right, Thor Dallas Cowboys taking in the Philadelphia Eagles. 1495 01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:30,000 Speaker 2: No Ceedee Lamb. This takes most of my interest out 1496 01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:32,800 Speaker 2: of the away from the Dallas Cowboys offense. You already 1497 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:34,800 Speaker 2: told us you take a chance on your running back 1498 01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:38,760 Speaker 2: was Rico Doubtles even you didn't very well. Is there 1499 01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:40,600 Speaker 2: any other part of the passing game you're interested in? 1500 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:42,719 Speaker 2: Brandon Cooks is going to get more looks. 1501 01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:43,720 Speaker 5: Jalen tok is. 1502 01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:44,559 Speaker 2: Gonna get more looks. 1503 01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:47,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Cooper Rush is on the bench. Shout 1504 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:50,559 Speaker 4: out Max in there though, and then I did, Okay, 1505 01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:53,040 Speaker 4: I gave sees to Cooks in Ferguson. I'm gonna make 1506 01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:54,519 Speaker 4: the case for you guys, and if you want to, 1507 01:11:54,840 --> 01:11:56,400 Speaker 4: you want to throw tomatoes at mean, that's fine. 1508 01:11:56,840 --> 01:11:57,200 Speaker 6: Cooks. 1509 01:11:58,120 --> 01:11:59,920 Speaker 4: Of course, the wide receiver one with Ceede Lamb out 1510 01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,320 Speaker 4: year shoulder injury. Last seven games, almost ten targets per 1511 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:06,000 Speaker 4: game for Ceede Lamb. Those must be distributed now. Cook 1512 01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:07,960 Speaker 4: played the most naps of the non Lamb wide receivers 1513 01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:10,760 Speaker 4: last week three targets, forty eight receiving yards. Has at 1514 01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:12,720 Speaker 4: least three targets for sherre games those are going up. 1515 01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:16,160 Speaker 4: Eagles have been the eighth worst matchup for fantasy wide receivers, 1516 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:17,960 Speaker 4: but gonna have to put the ball in the ear 1517 01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:21,320 Speaker 4: sometime and for that reason also going Jake Ferguson a 1518 01:12:21,439 --> 01:12:23,960 Speaker 4: seed tight end twenty six for the year, only three 1519 01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,479 Speaker 4: point eight fantasy points per game with Cooper Rush starting, 1520 01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:28,599 Speaker 4: and the Eagles are a tough matchup for tight ends 1521 01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:31,120 Speaker 4: and Ferguson only had twenty four yards against him in 1522 01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:33,360 Speaker 4: the first game, and he also fumbled the ball. 1523 01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:35,200 Speaker 6: I know I'm not doing a good job of selling again, but. 1524 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:36,000 Speaker 2: No, you're really not. 1525 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:39,200 Speaker 4: Tight ends up at thirty seven or less receiving yards 1526 01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:41,160 Speaker 4: against the Eagles in two thirds of the games that 1527 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:41,759 Speaker 4: they have played. 1528 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 6: But but but here's a big buy dot dot. Ferguson 1529 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:50,599 Speaker 6: had nine targets last week, his most since early November. 1530 01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:52,519 Speaker 4: And what a time for Rush to start looking that 1531 01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 4: way with lamb out. Could more targets be coming that away? 1532 01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:58,120 Speaker 4: We'll shoot at sea over that way. We will not 1533 01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:00,840 Speaker 4: be giving a letter grade to Kenny Pick who again 1534 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:04,360 Speaker 4: pos a lot of money to Jordan Addison. Yeah, Kenny 1535 01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:06,120 Speaker 4: Pickett's going to get the call here. I'm still giving 1536 01:13:06,200 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 4: Saquon Barkley and A. J. Brown their A mustards even 1537 01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:13,160 Speaker 4: with Pickett running the show. Brown had fifteen point seven 1538 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:15,679 Speaker 4: Fantasy points last week with Pickett mostly running the show. 1539 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:18,400 Speaker 2: I don't know, man I Pickett looked bad, but he 1540 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:22,360 Speaker 2: all but the focused on Brown and Smith. 1541 01:13:22,439 --> 01:13:24,439 Speaker 4: So maybe if they can bring in Jordan Addison over 1542 01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:29,040 Speaker 4: these and help him out. Shout out Pitt Panthers. DeVonta Smith, 1543 01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:32,000 Speaker 4: the last one here, collegiate receiver of Mac Jones. We 1544 01:13:32,080 --> 01:13:34,519 Speaker 4: were just talking about. I gave Davanta see that. This 1545 01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:37,800 Speaker 4: is how I tacked it down without hurts against the Commanders. 1546 01:13:38,040 --> 01:13:40,320 Speaker 4: Smith did having you know his defense, I guess six 1547 01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:44,160 Speaker 4: catches fifty one yards, eight targets. Cowboys are the ninth 1548 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:47,240 Speaker 4: best matchup for Fantasy wide receivers. But Smith struggled in 1549 01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:49,719 Speaker 4: this first game against Dallas two catches for fourteen yards, 1550 01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:52,360 Speaker 4: and now of course he's going to have to replay 1551 01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:53,720 Speaker 4: them with Kenny Pickett full game. 1552 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:57,639 Speaker 2: Well, dron Bland is back. He's playing great. Last week, 1553 01:13:57,680 --> 01:14:00,240 Speaker 2: had a fantastic game against Mike Evans and physical on 1554 01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:04,160 Speaker 2: physical cornerback versus wide receiver. I'm interested in what's gonna 1555 01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:07,320 Speaker 2: happen with Deron Bland who shadowed again shadowed A J. 1556 01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:08,040 Speaker 6: Brown? Does he does? 1557 01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:09,360 Speaker 2: Does he shadow A J. Brown? 1558 01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:09,559 Speaker 3: Here? 1559 01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:12,360 Speaker 2: And then does that ultimately hurt AJ Brown a little bit? 1560 01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:14,960 Speaker 2: We'll see, Yeah, dog Fright got some concern about that 1561 01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 2: little bit. Yeah, let's take a break when we come back. 1562 01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:23,400 Speaker 2: Two matchups left in our season.

I was nervous about everything we saw 1640 01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:58,080 Speaker 2: earlier in the season. He remains a focal point of 1641 01:17:58,120 --> 01:18:00,320 Speaker 2: the Dolphins wide receiver group, and we don't know for 1642 01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 2: sure if Jalen Watda's gonna play it, and especially he 1643 01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:05,240 Speaker 2: doesn't play, He'll probably continues to be a focal point 1644 01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:08,840 Speaker 2: of this Brown's Secondary's just fallen off a cliff over 1645 01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 2: the past month. The Browns rank bottom five in wide 1646 01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:16,320 Speaker 2: receiver receptions allowed, wide receiver yards allowed, and wide receiver 1647 01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:19,960 Speaker 2: touchdowns allowed. If Tyreek Hill, if not, now when a 1648 01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:24,680 Speaker 2: grade and I'm happy to say a grade for John Ujohnu. 1649 01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:28,800 Speaker 2: Since Week seven, John Smith is tight end one. I 1650 01:18:28,960 --> 01:18:31,960 Speaker 2: can't even I can't believe I'm saying this. He has 1651 01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 2: avoided a dud game in six straight which tight ends 1652 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:37,960 Speaker 2: do dud games all the time. Not John Oujnu. He 1653 01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 2: is the Doelphins single most reliable player at any position. 1654 01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,720 Speaker 2: Cleveland is a bottom ten fantasy tight end defense. In 1655 01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:48,759 Speaker 2: the last six Browns games, they've given up six different 1656 01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:52,360 Speaker 2: fantasy relevant games to opposing tight ends. Pretty Much everybody 1657 01:18:52,360 --> 01:18:55,519 Speaker 2: who should have a good game against Cleveland at the 1658 01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:56,679 Speaker 2: tight end position does. 1659 01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:59,240 Speaker 6: I just I checked my sports book while you were 1660 01:18:59,280 --> 01:18:59,720 Speaker 6: talking there. 1661 01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:02,800 Speaker 4: Just cash a ticket a two leg parlay that Tank 1662 01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:04,920 Speaker 4: Bigsby would be your last week, take a chance on 1663 01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:06,839 Speaker 4: you guy, and that you would also give John Husmith 1664 01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:09,280 Speaker 4: a grade of bay. It looks like it was fourteen. 1665 01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 4: It was fourteen to one. Yeah, yeah, brought that one. 1666 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:17,160 Speaker 2: Home, nicely done. Staying with the passing game, I mentioned 1667 01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:20,479 Speaker 2: Jalen Wattle. If he does go, you could pick him 1668 01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:23,360 Speaker 2: up because the Browns secondary, as I just mentioned, has 1669 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:26,200 Speaker 2: fallen apart. And by the way, number two receivers crushing 1670 01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:30,040 Speaker 2: the Browns in five straight games. Number two receivers have 1671 01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:33,519 Speaker 2: scored touchdowns against the Browns, and a lot had been 1672 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:36,639 Speaker 2: surging before his Week fifteen knee injury. So he comes 1673 01:19:36,680 --> 01:19:39,280 Speaker 2: back here. C grade on Jalen Wattle, and that brings 1674 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:42,800 Speaker 2: us to Tua in the passing game. I've got the 1675 01:19:42,840 --> 01:19:44,760 Speaker 2: two A grades I mentioned, I've got the C grade 1676 01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:46,880 Speaker 2: for Wattle, so I'm giving him a B grade. He's 1677 01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:50,559 Speaker 2: the perfect quarterback to start if you're an underdog coming 1678 01:19:50,600 --> 01:19:54,320 Speaker 2: into your matchup. Maybe you played against Derrick Henry, Lamar Jackson, 1679 01:19:55,040 --> 01:19:58,720 Speaker 2: Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes. He's got some big upside here. 1680 01:19:58,920 --> 01:20:03,120 Speaker 2: He's got three and four touchdown upside in this game. 1681 01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:05,719 Speaker 2: And this is a Brown defense that's allowed passing touchdowns 1682 01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:09,519 Speaker 2: and eleven straight and multiple touchdowns nine times this year. 1683 01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:12,240 Speaker 2: That might be our final nine time in the right there, 1684 01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:16,759 Speaker 2: let's go to the Brown side. Oh boy, well, Jerome 1685 01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:20,080 Speaker 2: Ford get this. The last two weeks with Nick Chubb hurt, 1686 01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:24,639 Speaker 2: Jerome Ford is running back eight and running back nine 1687 01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:27,720 Speaker 2: the last two weeks. Who to guests didn't see that coming, 1688 01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:31,080 Speaker 2: getting nearly all the workload for Cleveland, and they really 1689 01:20:31,160 --> 01:20:33,120 Speaker 2: do not want to put the ball into Dorian Thompson 1690 01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:37,000 Speaker 2: Robinson's hands Unfortunately, Miami's turned into a great run defense 1691 01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:39,120 Speaker 2: over the past eight games, which is a pretty long 1692 01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:42,719 Speaker 2: sample size. No back is top sixty two yards against Miami. 1693 01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:45,920 Speaker 2: The average result for a starting runner against Miami over 1694 01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:50,559 Speaker 2: those past eight games thirty three rushing yards, thirty receiving yards, 1695 01:20:50,880 --> 01:20:53,720 Speaker 2: and point one touchdown. So just to see great on 1696 01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:56,720 Speaker 2: Jerome Ford, even though he had been hot. As for 1697 01:20:57,120 --> 01:20:59,599 Speaker 2: the rest of the receivers, they're all on the bench 1698 01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 2: except one guy, David and Jok, who's been ruled out. 1699 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:09,120 Speaker 2: If you need a crazy dart throw Jordan Akins because 1700 01:21:09,360 --> 01:21:13,320 Speaker 2: no dtr does nothing but target is tight ends. Last 1701 01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:15,720 Speaker 2: week David and Jok who got forty two percent of 1702 01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:19,000 Speaker 2: the targets, and good tight ends hammer the Dolphins as 1703 01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:21,000 Speaker 2: we saw last week with George Kettle Well, obviously Gege 1704 01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:23,120 Speaker 2: Kittle's a million times better than Jordan Akans, but still 1705 01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:26,000 Speaker 2: a few weeks before that, Tucker Craft seventy eight yards, 1706 01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:28,240 Speaker 2: before that brock Bowers one hundred and twenty six yards. 1707 01:21:28,640 --> 01:21:30,400 Speaker 2: I look, it's a total long chop. But if you're 1708 01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:32,320 Speaker 2: in a desperate spot, Jordan Akins. 1709 01:21:32,160 --> 01:21:35,880 Speaker 3: If you picked up Jordan Akins and started him and 1710 01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:38,479 Speaker 3: won a championship based on charges advice right there. 1711 01:21:38,560 --> 01:21:40,080 Speaker 5: You deserve a tip on that one. 1712 01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:40,680 Speaker 2: I deserve it. 1713 01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:41,479 Speaker 5: Yees, you deserve it. 1714 01:21:41,920 --> 01:21:42,160 Speaker 6: Charge. 1715 01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:44,479 Speaker 4: Do you speaking of the Cleveland Browns passing game, did 1716 01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:47,200 Speaker 4: you know that Dorian Thompson Robinson was a backup in 1717 01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:47,759 Speaker 4: high school? 1718 01:21:48,720 --> 01:21:51,360 Speaker 6: Even started he did not? And do you know who 1719 01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:52,000 Speaker 6: he backed up? 1720 01:21:52,760 --> 01:21:52,960 Speaker 2: Huh? 1721 01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:56,200 Speaker 4: This was a Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas 1722 01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:59,880 Speaker 4: Powerhouse High School. He backed up one of the great 1723 01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:02,519 Speaker 4: recruiting bus that we have had in the last twenty 1724 01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:05,720 Speaker 4: years in college football, a guy named Tate martel. 1725 01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:07,200 Speaker 2: Oh I remember hearing the name. 1726 01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:10,280 Speaker 4: Yes, Dorian thoms Robbinson has had like the strangest career. 1727 01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:13,120 Speaker 4: He was a backup in high school, but he because 1728 01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:15,519 Speaker 4: of the tools, he was a high recruit and Chip 1729 01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:19,160 Speaker 4: Kelly got him coming out of high school, started him immediately. 1730 01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:23,240 Speaker 6: At UCLA and all throughout and disaster. Yeah. How many? 1731 01:22:23,280 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 4: How many times you get the backup high school kid 1732 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:28,440 Speaker 4: that then starts every snap of his college career essentially. 1733 01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:33,040 Speaker 2: Falls into the NFL crazy So dtr a non functional passer. 1734 01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:37,559 Speaker 2: In two hundred and three NFL dropbacks, he has one 1735 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:40,640 Speaker 2: touchdown and nine interceptions. 1736 01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:42,519 Speaker 6: Nine How do you do that. 1737 01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:45,599 Speaker 2: The NFL have a one to nine touchdown to interception. 1738 01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:48,479 Speaker 6: He was carrying the clipboard for Tate Martell in high school. 1739 01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:49,320 Speaker 2: Understand. 1740 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:49,599 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1741 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:53,120 Speaker 2: Over the past two years, DTR has the NFL's worst 1742 01:22:53,720 --> 01:22:56,639 Speaker 2: passer rating. And I believe I've got this stat correctly. 1743 01:22:56,920 --> 01:22:59,080 Speaker 2: It came by my ex feet a couple of days ago. 1744 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:04,240 Speaker 2: Over the past twenty five years, DTR has the worst 1745 01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 2: average passing distance three point three yards per pass. 1746 01:23:08,840 --> 01:23:11,120 Speaker 6: They maybe try Tatemartell, you know he I mean, you 1747 01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:12,799 Speaker 6: went to Ohio States. You know it's closet. 1748 01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:14,679 Speaker 5: Jilix Spurgeon win is a better choice. 1749 01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:15,680 Speaker 2: You might be right now? 1750 01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:15,920 Speaker 6: Sure? 1751 01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:16,280 Speaker 5: All right? 1752 01:23:16,320 --> 01:23:18,400 Speaker 2: Final matchup of the year Detroit Lions taking on the 1753 01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:19,720 Speaker 2: San Francisco forty nine Ers. 1754 01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:22,840 Speaker 3: Jamiir Gibbs gets an A grade. The David Montgomery injury 1755 01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:24,479 Speaker 3: is going to prove to be a league winner for 1756 01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:27,800 Speaker 3: Gibbs owners the once amazing Niners run defense, not that 1757 01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:31,280 Speaker 3: this year, opposing backs averaging twenty eight touches, one hundred 1758 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:33,519 Speaker 3: and thirty two conboy yards and just over a touchdown 1759 01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:35,760 Speaker 3: per game. Almost all of that goes to Gibbs, and 1760 01:23:35,840 --> 01:23:36,679 Speaker 3: he's probably better. 1761 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:37,360 Speaker 5: Than most of the opponents. 1762 01:23:37,400 --> 01:23:40,519 Speaker 3: The Niners have seen this year not as easy for 1763 01:23:40,640 --> 01:23:43,439 Speaker 3: the passing game, though, Jared Goff facing a really good 1764 01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:46,639 Speaker 3: Niners pass defense. They're only allowing one hundred and ninety 1765 01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:50,880 Speaker 3: five passing yards and just over one passing score per game. Now, 1766 01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:53,439 Speaker 3: weather shouldn't be a factor in an outdoor game. For golf, 1767 01:23:53,760 --> 01:23:57,599 Speaker 3: it's supposed to be like like low to mid fifties 1768 01:23:57,720 --> 01:24:00,599 Speaker 3: during the game and fair weather. So I'll still give 1769 01:24:00,640 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 3: Goff a B. But this one's closer to a C 1770 01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:06,120 Speaker 3: than it is to an A. From the slot a Monross, 1771 01:24:06,160 --> 01:24:09,080 Speaker 3: Saint Brown will go up against Diamador Lenoi. That's a 1772 01:24:09,120 --> 01:24:12,479 Speaker 3: tough matchup, it's a great matchup. Lenor hasn't allowed a 1773 01:24:12,560 --> 01:24:15,599 Speaker 3: touchdown in four hundred and seventy nine coverage snaps. 1774 01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:16,240 Speaker 2: That's awesome. 1775 01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:19,599 Speaker 3: He's been the Niners' best cover corner by far, allowing 1776 01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:22,439 Speaker 3: only thirty five yards per game. But something's got to 1777 01:24:22,479 --> 01:24:25,320 Speaker 3: give because Saint Brown has scored in ten to fifteen 1778 01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:29,280 Speaker 3: games this season and he's averaging seventy five yards per contest. Overall, 1779 01:24:29,320 --> 01:24:32,559 Speaker 3: the Niners top five and receptions, yards and touchdowns allowed 1780 01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:35,200 Speaker 3: to wide receivers. So I'll still gave Saint Brown a 1781 01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:38,400 Speaker 3: B grade simply because I respect what he does too much. 1782 01:24:38,680 --> 01:24:41,360 Speaker 3: I'm gonna leave Jamison Williams on the bench, though, despite 1783 01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:44,240 Speaker 3: the explosive output last week, I don't think I can 1784 01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:45,160 Speaker 3: trust it this week. 1785 01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:47,280 Speaker 2: Sam Laporta gets a C. 1786 01:24:47,520 --> 01:24:49,719 Speaker 3: He's been much better in the latter half the season, 1787 01:24:49,800 --> 01:24:52,840 Speaker 3: but hardly an auto start. San Francisco has allowed one 1788 01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:55,519 Speaker 3: tight end touchdown in the last ten games and no 1789 01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:58,639 Speaker 3: tight end his top sixty six yards against them this season. 1790 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:01,519 Speaker 3: It would take a real high volume day for Laporta 1791 01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:04,439 Speaker 3: hit double digit PPR points, and he has had seven, 1792 01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:06,800 Speaker 3: ten and seven targets in the last three weeks, so 1793 01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:09,760 Speaker 3: he does get a C grade to start here. On 1794 01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:12,200 Speaker 3: the other side, we'll start with the tight end George Kittle. 1795 01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:16,000 Speaker 3: He's had one stinker this year. This has the ability 1796 01:25:16,040 --> 01:25:18,800 Speaker 3: to be a second. The Lions are the best tight 1797 01:25:18,920 --> 01:25:21,680 Speaker 3: end defense in the league, with the fewest receptions and 1798 01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:24,920 Speaker 3: fewest yards allowed to the position. And it's insane because 1799 01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:28,439 Speaker 3: they don't have any defenders left. All their linebackers are gone. 1800 01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:30,800 Speaker 2: Those slats Man earlier in the year. 1801 01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:31,880 Speaker 5: Oh, it's crazy. 1802 01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:34,800 Speaker 3: They have allowed touchdowns to a tight end twice in 1803 01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:37,559 Speaker 3: the last three weeks, though, so I can't go lower 1804 01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:39,839 Speaker 3: than a B grade on Kittle, but I will acknowledge 1805 01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:42,679 Speaker 3: that this is his toughest task in a long time 1806 01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:45,799 Speaker 3: since all of the running backs got hurt. Deebo Samuel 1807 01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:48,240 Speaker 3: has become more of a scatback than anything. He's had 1808 01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:51,760 Speaker 3: twelve carries in the last three weeks. Patrick Taylor has 1809 01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:55,040 Speaker 3: had fifteen carries in the last three weeks. As a 1810 01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:57,719 Speaker 3: wide receiver, he faces a juicy matchup as the lines 1811 01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:01,280 Speaker 3: have allowed the second most receptions and yards to wide receivers. 1812 01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:04,719 Speaker 3: Rookie Terry and Arnold has missed all week with an illness, 1813 01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:07,040 Speaker 3: but should likely play on Monday. 1814 01:26:06,920 --> 01:26:08,719 Speaker 2: And honestly, he's just been okay. 1815 01:26:09,080 --> 01:26:11,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's allowed four touchdowns in his coverage this year, 1816 01:26:11,880 --> 01:26:14,160 Speaker 3: but he's one of the last actual corners the Lions have. 1817 01:26:14,680 --> 01:26:18,120 Speaker 3: Amiek robertson Man's the slot most often. He's along twelve 1818 01:26:18,160 --> 01:26:20,160 Speaker 3: and a half yards per catch, which is a ton 1819 01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:20,800 Speaker 3: from the slot. 1820 01:26:20,920 --> 01:26:23,760 Speaker 5: So B grade for Debo. I'll even give a B. 1821 01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:27,680 Speaker 3: Grade to Juan Jennings here because it's probably a pass happy. 1822 01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:28,280 Speaker 5: Game for the Niners. 1823 01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:30,680 Speaker 3: If I have bes on all the receivers, it's a 1824 01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:33,160 Speaker 3: bee for Brock Perdy, even though he's looked iffy with 1825 01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 3: accuracy for over the last few weeks. From a volume 1826 01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:38,080 Speaker 3: standpoint alone, he should be able to make it work. 1827 01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:40,519 Speaker 3: Though the Niners are out of running backs. The game 1828 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:43,599 Speaker 3: script favors the Niners passing, and they got to pass 1829 01:26:43,640 --> 01:26:46,479 Speaker 3: at least forty times, which is exactly what he did 1830 01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:49,000 Speaker 3: last week. He had three, thirteen and two last week. 1831 01:26:49,320 --> 01:26:51,840 Speaker 3: It's plausible that Perdy and Debo will be the top 1832 01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:54,240 Speaker 3: two rushing producers for the forty nine ers as well. 1833 01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:58,320 Speaker 3: So b grade on Brock and don't start a San 1834 01:26:58,400 --> 01:26:59,360 Speaker 3: Francisco runner. 1835 01:26:59,439 --> 01:27:00,160 Speaker 5: It's come to this. 1836 01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:03,040 Speaker 3: Isaac Garendo has a shot to play this week, but 1837 01:27:03,080 --> 01:27:05,160 Speaker 3: he's been limited all week with a hamstring and this 1838 01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:08,519 Speaker 3: is a Monday night game, ninety minutes before the last 1839 01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:10,479 Speaker 3: game in your championship week. Are you going to feel 1840 01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:15,599 Speaker 3: comfortable switching from Isaac Garendo to Simone Vaki or Patrick Taylor. 1841 01:27:16,200 --> 01:27:18,720 Speaker 3: You will not feel comfortable about that. The matchup is 1842 01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:22,160 Speaker 3: also terrible. Lions are top six and almost every metric 1843 01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:24,639 Speaker 3: against the run. Don't start a San Francisco runner. 1844 01:27:24,840 --> 01:27:26,760 Speaker 2: Do not start a San Francisco I'm with you on that. 1845 01:27:26,880 --> 01:27:29,200 Speaker 2: Don't do it. It's come to this for the forty 1846 01:27:29,280 --> 01:27:30,599 Speaker 2: nine ers, unfortunately in a loss. 1847 01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:32,559 Speaker 5: Now McCaffrey will be back last next year. 1848 01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:34,439 Speaker 2: And we got a couple minutes at the end of this, 1849 01:27:34,920 --> 01:27:38,120 Speaker 2: at the end of this segment and this show, let 1850 01:27:38,160 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 2: me hit you with this, Jade and Daniels next year, 1851 01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:43,040 Speaker 2: it's not gonna be QB one, That'll be Lamar Jackson 1852 01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:45,960 Speaker 2: or Josh Allen. Probably where do you think he fits 1853 01:27:46,000 --> 01:27:49,720 Speaker 2: into people's drafts next year? Jade and Daniels will be 1854 01:27:49,800 --> 01:27:51,479 Speaker 2: QB what in fantasy drafts? 1855 01:27:51,640 --> 01:27:54,920 Speaker 3: Well, considering that people are going to draft Jackson and 1856 01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:57,840 Speaker 3: Allen one and two and they're looking at those guys going, oh, 1857 01:27:57,880 --> 01:28:00,600 Speaker 3: we get that rushing upside too, Als is going to 1858 01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:02,200 Speaker 3: be pretty high. He's going to be a top five 1859 01:28:02,320 --> 01:28:03,880 Speaker 3: quarterback in most drafts next year. 1860 01:28:04,640 --> 01:28:05,880 Speaker 6: Three free three. 1861 01:28:06,080 --> 01:28:07,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he goes ahead of Hurtz. 1862 01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1863 01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:10,360 Speaker 2: I don't think I could do it just because it 1864 01:28:10,479 --> 01:28:14,519 Speaker 2: hurts gets me twelve rushing touchdowns every year. It's true, 1865 01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:15,920 Speaker 2: you know, I don't know if I can turn my 1866 01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:18,839 Speaker 2: back on twelve rushing touchdowns out of my quarterback. 1867 01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:20,680 Speaker 6: We're going to get a jump from Jaden next year. 1868 01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:24,080 Speaker 2: You think so rushing jump, Yes, I don't know. I 1869 01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:26,400 Speaker 2: think you'll go for me. It's going to be quarterback four. 1870 01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:29,080 Speaker 2: In my King Shadan Daniels, I believe he'll be quarterback 1871 01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:34,000 Speaker 2: number four. Playoff Guillotine Leagues last time. I want to 1872 01:28:34,120 --> 01:28:36,880 Speaker 2: encourage you two different formats to play.
