Here's your host, Paul. Welcome to 0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:27.960 Fantasy Football Weekly. I am Paul Charcy and joining me today. 0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:31.000 We've got well, it's a little bit in flux right 0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:35.760 at the moment. Brian Johnson is definitely here. Yeah, you know, 0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:41.280 Batterson is late but making an appearance. Colin mccogney, all 0:00:41.360 --> 0:00:47.320 the way from a British jail. Colin, I'm curious. I'm 0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:49.680 a little bit curious about how you could have possibly 0:00:49.800 --> 0:00:53.320 gotten out of jail so quickly. Did you go Andy 0:00:53.400 --> 0:00:56.880 du frains on on some jail cell and just like 0:00:56.920 --> 0:01:01.680 tunnel your way out Cadbury is Flake. A cattle trucked 0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:04.759 me a way to Bristol. Yeah, you trucked your way 0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:09.280 to Bristol. You're right, yes, Bristol, sure, brown bread and 0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:12.560 city slickers here, I am, yeah, here, you are right 0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:14.759 here in studio. It's great to have you here, Colin. 0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:18.600 I swore at an anti mccockney clause in my contract, 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:23.440 so I'm just Brian. You're a custard bun is a 0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:28.000 custard bun. We'll go through all of the matchups fantasy 0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:31.039 style as we always do, letter grades on all the players, 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:34.559 will talk about the injured the healthy. Will also play 0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:37.959 three tough questions as always, will release our nine take 0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:42.839 a chance of many players and premature speculation Matt. Premature 0:01:42.840 --> 0:01:47.160 speculation red hot over the past few weeks, including the 0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:57.160 likes of Goss Edwards and Goss Edwards Dot, Joanna, Ducks 0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:00.280 and Geese. It was looking pretty nice until the end 0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.120 of the game on Thursday night. Hopefully, hopefully Gus is 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:05.360 all right. We hope, We hope for nothing but good 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:07.920 things for God. Are we love Gus Edwards. Let's start 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:10.880 with the New York Giants taking on a Seattle Brian. 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:14.040 You know, for the Giants, this is a surprise team 0:02:14.120 --> 0:02:16.640 that has won a lot of games, but hasn't necessarily 0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:18.640 put up a lot of reliable points outside of Sa 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:21.160 Kwan Barkley. Yeah, let's start with Sa Kwan. I'm gonna 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:24.280 bake in the Fantasy Fonzie here and say we'll call 0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:31.040 him Say Kwan Barley. After allowing over a hundred rushing 0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.720 yards running backs for five straight weeks to begin the season. 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:36.200 The Seahawks have only given up a combined seventy five 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:39.640 rushing yards over the last two weeks, but that came 0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:42.560 against the Cardinals without James Conner, and last week the 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:45.760 Chargers running backs total just twelve carries. I think Barkley 0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:48.120 sees a lot more than that. Plus over the last 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:51.519 three weeks, Alvin Kamara and Austin Ekel are both top 0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:53.919 to ninety receiving yards against Seattle. So I love say 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:56.720 Kwan here. He gains the FONZI uh, not a whole 0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:58.640 lot of the other giants to like. I do like 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:03.160 Wan Dale Robinson only saw snapshare in week six when 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:06.639 we ran ten routes. Last week is snapshare jump to 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:13.040 mccocky knows how that works. That's shocking y nine routes 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:14.600 in that game. So I think we see another big 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:17.760 bump in usage this week. Seattle only allowing a hundred 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:22.000 three two yards per game to wide receivers. But Tarik 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:28.000 Willen is in the conversation for Defensive Rookie of the Years. Honey, 0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:30.120 I mean, I've never missed Matt so much in my 0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:34.040 life that will make an appearance in this show. I 0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:37.880 don't know, I just I wanted to give Darius Slayton 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.640 a starting grade, but I got him on the bench. Um, 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:43.280 there's been some trade rumors that they're gonna the Giants 0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:45.200 are gonna trade Darius Slayton too, even though they just 0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:47.880 traded Darius Tony and they're very thin and wide receiver. 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.760 So maybe it's a showcase game for for Slayton. But again, 0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:55.040 the matchup not great, so he's on the bench. Uh, sadly, 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.119 as is well Daniel Bellinger, the tight end for the Giants, 0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:01.200 recovering from an orbital in re look brutal on the 0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:07.240 Thankfully his eyes is not, so he he's out for 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:10.960 the foreseeable future. But uh, that's a bummer. I mean, 0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:14.000 we're looking at Chris meyer Rick and Tanner Hudson, but 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:15.480 I gotta put them both on the bench. But it's 0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:18.800 a shame Seattle is allowing eighty four yards for game 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:20.920 to tight ends, so but I don't know which one 0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:23.120 to pick there. So they're on the bench, but Daniel 0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:26.760 Jones is not. Daniel Jones gets a sea and Daniel 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:30.719 Jones has more rushing yards than James Robinson, Naji Harris, 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:34.880 A J. Dillon Antonio Gibson and Kareem Hunt. And yes 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:36.680 they've all played the same number of games. It's not 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:38.719 like those running backs that had to buy. He's in 0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:41.880 an effective tie with Justin Fields for the second most 0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:45.839 quarterback rushing yards, behind only Lamar Jackson. That's how that 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:47.920 is how Daniel Jones is helping you. It's the forty 0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:50.320 eight rushing yards per game, and they're designed place he 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:52.680 was sound like, they're not broken play so that they're 0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:54.280 trying to scheme him to run the ball out of 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:57.320 Seattle yielded a hundred rushing yards at Kyler Murray two 0:04:57.320 --> 0:05:00.000 weeks ago, so that bones world for Jones. But outside 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:03.400 allowing that monster game to Jared Goff, the seahawkside is 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.200 a few weeks ago. The Seahawks haveps rendered zero or 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:09.359 one passing touchdowns in five of six games. So just 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:12.720 to see for Daniel Jones over at the Seattle side, Uh, 0:05:12.839 --> 0:05:16.200 not a C for Kenneth Walker the third he gets 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:21.520 an A we have a sound bite here valid blarnet, 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:29.960 cheese and kisses. I have a unique skill where I 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:33.080 can name like songs and movies the year were made. 0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:35.880 But anyway, you know, if I haven't heard the song 0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:38.320 or seen the movie. But anyway, Kenneth Walker easy a 0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:41.880 averaging nearly seven yards per carry with four touchdowns in 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:44.480 the two and a half games played without Rashad Penny. 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.120 The Giants are allowing nearly six yards per carry in 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:50.080 our ranked thirty against the run by Pro Football Focus. 0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:54.120 So A for Walker, B for Tyler Lockett dealing with 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:57.480 the hamstring issue but should play d K Matt Metcalf 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:00.040 hasn't been ruled out, but he's all but likely to 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:01.600 sit this one out with a knee injury. If there 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:04.280 was one published report on Friday that said that DK 0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:06.200 Metcalf won't play the rest of the year. Now, that 0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:09.040 has not been substantiated at this time, but both certainly 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:11.640 want to watch that closely. Well, it's it's hard to 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:13.600 gage his injuries when he gets carried off a few 0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:15.280 weeks ago to take a dump and then he gets 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:18.000 carried off with an actual ankle injury, so who knows 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:21.520 where metcalp said hopefully he'll be back after the street. 0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:26.640 What was that anyway? Back to lock It, Uh, you 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:28.200 should see a ton of volume and it's not a 0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:31.360 great matchup. Opposing wide receivers are averaging just eleven catches 0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:34.280 on thirty three yards per game against the Giants, who 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:37.800 have allowed just one wide receiver touchdown over the last four. 0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:41.359 For that reason, I have marquees to the Castle. Goodwin 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:44.000 on the bench, old friend of the show, very old 0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:46.040 friend of the show. I forgot to even existed until 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:48.920 last week. And uh the tight ends on the bench 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:53.920 as well, Noah fanton well death lack gab Mike and 0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:57.599 a gypsy's kiss well death lay from Scotton. Uh looked 0:06:57.600 --> 0:07:01.479 like Fanton was distancing, distancing himself from this leave. But 0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:04.080 last week this Lee out does fans. So we're we're 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.480 out on both those guys. We're still in on Geno 0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:09.440 Smith though, but just to see again likely no dk Metcalf. 0:07:09.560 --> 0:07:12.400 That stings, especially against the Giants, who have allowed a 0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:16.120 completion percentage of just fifty six percent. Best in the 0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:20.320 NFL the league averages sixty percent. That secondary has been 0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:23.720 playing great even without James Bradberry. As a result, the 0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:27.160 posing quarterbacks were averaging only two passing arms in one 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:30.520 passing touchdown per game against New York. All right, now 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:35.200 we get around the house game in London. Yet somehow 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:39.800 Colin mccockney in studio here in Minnesota. Roast puck chocky 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:42.760 boy on your chest hair hedges. Oh, I love the 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:48.600 sound of smashing choccy boys smashing. Yes, Brian big Boy, 0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:52.760 Jamie Dodger, You ready for Tottenham points? So I gotta 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:59.760 I gotta translate for you kiddies and ponies and foggy underwear. Okay, Yes, 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:03.120 Colin said something about the Jaguars and Broncos playing in 0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:07.760 London on Sunday morning. Da travy, travy, poof and a bathtub. 0:08:08.320 --> 0:08:11.400 He's seeing apples and pass He's seeing a base in 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:15.600 a gravy. Captain Kirk and Spucky Sparko borrow and beg 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:19.560 bottle and stop. Even the Smalley bums ain't talking about Willis. 0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:22.840 I'm a little rusty, but I think you said Trevor 0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:24.920 Lawrence in the whole passing game is on a bench 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:28.680 that includes Christian Kirk, all the jones Is, Evan and 0:08:28.720 --> 0:08:32.600 grim and even Dan Arnold under dumber than I thought. 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.720 The Broncos having allowed of passing score in a month. Uh, 0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:38.839 they just held justin Herbert two eight scoreless yards a 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:42.120 few weeks ago on fifty seven attempts. And it's not 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.000 a defense that you want to start the passing game against. 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:47.080 By the way, I'm doing like the work for you. 0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:50.400 Are you getting paid? Do I get any sitting here? Yeah? 0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:52.320 Come on, I swear I heard something about a bucket 0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:55.480 of gravy, but I must not. I always struggle with that. 0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.440 Not even worthy of that. But carry on. Greece's pieces 0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:02.120 and a phone home. He's a bonnet of flowers. Jam 0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:06.000 tart me nabbies because the lemon merchant is selling apples, 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:12.040 numbies and crumbies on the opera ladies. Travis think it's 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:15.840 a b James Robinson traded to the Jets this week. 0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:19.000 E t A looks ready to carry the load. Double 0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:22.040 digit rushing attempts and four of his last five. Last week, 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:26.040 he took fourteen carries for fourteen yards and a touchdown. 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:29.079 The Broncos defense is allowing four point eight yards per carry, 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:32.160 the seventh worst mark in the NFL. I think you 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:36.400 take some liberties with that Rossi ROSSI, we don't trustee. 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:39.480 He's short of a sheet and might weep and well 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:44.000 with the rats and mice. Jagua is a Scotch miss too. 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:49.200 He's bleeding bended knees like Johnny snow Well, Russell Wilson 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.880 on the bench despite a decent matchup. He missed last 0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:54.480 week with a hamstring injury and has been a distraction 0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:57.240 all season, but he'll start on Sunday most likely. He's 0:09:57.280 --> 0:10:00.800 only hit two D seventy five yards once this year. 0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:04.200 He's only thrown for multiple touchdowns once. The Broncos have 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:07.400 only topped sixteen points once this year. Is this it's 0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:12.240 all around bad? Judge Judy in Parliament, Funky Mutton going 0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:15.600 pig and roast, getting three and tea time he makes 0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:19.080 up an oily rag for Austin Martin. The Queen's not 0:10:19.240 --> 0:10:23.400 gonna have any cheese. No cheese, you're Heah Cortlan Sutton 0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:26.000 and Jerry Judy both get a sea. The Jaguars have 0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:29.200 allowed seven different wide receivers who topped ninety yards or 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.240 score over the last five weeks, and they're also allowing 0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:34.480 about a hundred fifty yards per game to wide receivers, 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.719 so there should be enough for each of them to 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:39.439 hit sixty yards with the eight or nine targets they 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:44.560 see per game. Greggy no legs, he's no submarine, capping penny, 0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:48.480 come quick nine and backgammon and then a front gammon. 0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:52.720 Front gammon that's better than the backgammon. It's a seed 0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:56.080 for dol Chitch Dulcich, who saw nine targets last week 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.720 from Brett Rippon and a touchdown from Wilson the week before. 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:01.600 Jacksonville has at faced many good tight ends this year, 0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:04.839 the most notable one Dallas Goddard my boy, who went 0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.760 for five catches and seventy two yards. Malvy on the 0:11:07.840 --> 0:11:12.080 shelby and blurry scurry be pony and jugs on a raspberry. 0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:15.199 He's off the knacko with a tinkle, isn't he? Isn't 0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:19.760 he is? Broncos get a sugar basin and a chalk farm. 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:23.840 This is the last London game of the season. Ord 0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:27.760 in with Davis Murdy. Bothdavious Murray both get a see. 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.040 Mike Boonen went to i R this week and the 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:33.040 Broncos signed Marlon Mack, who cares. The Jaguars are allowing 0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:36.160 a ton of touches to opposing runners around per game. 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:38.720 That's the sixth most, and they're also allowing about a 0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:41.640 hundred and forty combo yards per game to runners, tenth most. 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:45.120 The Broncos like they'll split Gordon in Murray's touches this week. 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.160 Murray even caught two passes last week, so again they 0:11:48.200 --> 0:11:51.080 both get a C grade. Get your ascot races on 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:55.160 a jam jar on the half inch call it out. 0:11:55.800 --> 0:12:01.959 Thank god. Colin mccockney, I'm more. I think the bobbies 0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:04.440 are coming for Colin right now. I think he may 0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:07.240 have You know, a lot of people hear this show, 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:14.400 including the constables that are looking for the escaped convict. 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:18.520 Colin mccockney, Oh, call them. You called the called the cops. 0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:22.880 I was translating and uh texting the authorities. I think 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:26.120 that's probably a very good idea. Multitasking. Yeah, when we 0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:29.720 come back, Arizona is taking on the Minnesota Vikings. We'll 0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:33.520 tell you what to do with Eno Benjamin. He's back 0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:35.960 as a starter. One good game, one bad game. What 0:12:36.080 --> 0:13:04.400 do you expect from Eno Benjamin is Fantasy Football Weekly continues. 0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:09.880 It's take a chance on me. Nine players not normally 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:12.640 in your starting lineup. Many of these guys are available 0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:16.640 on your waiver wire. One of mine definitely is I'm 0:13:16.679 --> 0:13:20.400 gonna be starting one of mine with who is this guy? Oh? 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:22.800 Hrch I what did I miss in the first segment 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:25.440 I just got here. Sorry, welcome back. You'll be sad 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:31.920 to learn the reapprehension of Colin mccockney. He's been captured again. 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:34.400 That's right. I feel like I'm in an episode of 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:37.760 Carmen San Diego. It's very similar to that Who's the 0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:39.480 bad guy in Carmen Sandy? There was a lot of 0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:41.880 different ones, but Carmen San Diego was the main band guy. 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:44.360 That's right. There was some girl like that was always 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:47.240 trying to chase out. Yeah, the chiefs, you know, and 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:51.120 the kids, right right, Uh, let's start the quarterback position. 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:54.840 Matt Harrison now joining who is you take a chance 0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:58.560 on me? Quarterback? I've got General Davis Mills coming off 0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:00.079 his best game of the year where he threw for 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.920 three two yards and two scores against the Raiders. That 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:06.280 was a favorable matchup. So is Tennessee, who is impossible 0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:08.480 to run against but very easy to throw on. In 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:10.920 six games this season, four of the quarterbacks who have 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:13.760 faced the Titans have thrown for over three hundred yards, 0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:16.120 and five of the quarterbacks who they played have thrown 0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:19.840 for multiple scores. Yorks, take a chance at me, quarterback, 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:23.840 Brian I got former XFL star p J Walker over 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:28.320 the Carolina Panthers at the Falcons, who just just suck 0:14:28.400 --> 0:14:31.360 for multiple reasons. We'll get to that later, but on defense, 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:36.360 specifically allowing nearly three yards and two passing touchdowns per game, 0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:39.760 they are second in pass attempts allowed, first and completions. 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:43.520 Walker also has some wheels when needed. The Falcons have 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.200 surrendered a quarterback rushing touchdown in two of their last 0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:48.560 four games. I'm liking the Panthers and this one led 0:14:48.600 --> 0:14:50.760 by p J. Walker. I'm I'm kind of with you 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.600 on this. Get this Panthers win their game, They're in 0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:57.720 first place. You rowed my lawn a little bit that 0:14:57.840 --> 0:15:00.920 that that game decides that Carolina Land, whoever wins, will 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:04.320 be in first place. And it's amazing. Andy Dalton goes 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:06.440 up against Las Vegas. He's coming off a rare four 0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:09.960 touchdown game, which admittedly is very uncommon for him, but 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:14.680 the Raiders offered the promise of statistical upside for Dalton. 0:15:14.840 --> 0:15:19.680 Every opposing quarterback has scored multiple touchdowns against Las Vegas. 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:24.000 Recent success stories include Davis Mills, the take a chance 0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:27.360 on the quarterback that Matt Harrison gave us last week. 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.440 Russell Wilson. I mean, those are two guys who do 0:15:30.520 --> 0:15:33.600 not normally light up the box score. So we'll take 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:35.680 Andy Dalton this week. Let's go to the running back position. 0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:37.720 You take a chance on the runner, Matt. I've got 0:15:37.840 --> 0:15:40.800 Kenny Gainwell. Now. Miles Sanders is getting around twenty touches 0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:43.040 per game, and that's fine, But the Steelers defense is 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:46.280 seeing around thirty running back touches per game against them 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:48.720 right now, and this game should not be close. It 0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:51.360 should be garbage time midway through the third. In his 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:54.720 last two games, game Wells posted yards per carry averages 0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:56.800 over five and he scored in one third of his 0:15:56.840 --> 0:15:59.440 games this season. So you could do worse than Kenny Gainwell. 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:02.520 All right, Kenny Gainewell in what's your take a chance 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:03.920 on me? Who is your take a chance on me? 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:07.360 Running back? Brian I got Miami's Chase Edmonds at Detroit. Yes, 0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:09.640 I know Wherehee most is the lead back right now, 0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:12.600 but Edmunds could still see ten to twelve opportunities against 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:15.040 the Lions, who are allowing these second most rushing yards 0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:17.520 and the most the most touchdowns per game to opposing 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:20.920 running backs. Over their last three games, Detroit has allowed 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:23.760 or mondre Stephenson, Rashad Penny in the Dallas back field 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:26.240 to combine for an average of a hundred and fifty 0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:29.520 one rushing yards and one point three touchdowns. So Chase Edmunds, 0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:32.400 come on, you're not dead yet. Niheim Hines returned to 0:16:32.440 --> 0:16:35.360 health last week and had a big role for the Colts. 0:16:35.360 --> 0:16:39.760 He's back is the number two behind Jonathan Taylor. Hines 0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:42.920 is one of the league's best pass catching backs, and 0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:45.000 that's why I like him. Here he's gonna face a 0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:49.280 Washington defense allowing the most receiving touchdowns two runners, five 0:16:49.320 --> 0:16:51.560 of them this year, and that includes last week's monster 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:54.760 line to Aaron Jones. He had nine receptions fifty three 0:16:54.840 --> 0:16:58.000 yards and two touchdowns last week. Sam Ellinger's making his 0:16:58.120 --> 0:17:02.480 first start. Ellinger is making his first start. I think 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:04.960 there could be a lot of dump off passes, safety 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:10.040 valve receptions for Nikem Hines from Ellinger The Slinger, Ellinger, 0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:16.040 the Slinger, elve Slingerlinger, el Slinger. I like Stage five Linger. Yeah, 0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:22.479 that's good too, don't get it, wedding crashers. It's all right, Okay, 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.440 let's go to the wide receiver position and or tight 0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:29.240 end I've got a wide receiver this week. It's Quez Watkins. 0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:31.639 The Steelers are a disaster, and I don't think anybody 0:17:31.640 --> 0:17:34.520 else would their disaster in the secondary. Right now, they're 0:17:34.520 --> 0:17:36.800 allowing the most yards per game to wide receivers in 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:40.040 the entire league, at two nine per game. That's enough 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.480 for A. J. Brown and Devanta Smith to get their's 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:44.800 and leave some for Quaz who's on the field for 0:17:44.800 --> 0:17:48.320 about six of his snaps. So go get him, all right, Brian, 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:52.520 your take a chance of me receiver? Got Scott Fish's boy, 0:17:52.680 --> 0:17:55.840 Terris Marshall, he does bearing him up with p J. 0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:58.280 Walker all right. At Atlanta, of course, was allowed these 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:00.640 second most yards and the most recepts and the most 0:18:00.680 --> 0:18:03.359 touchdowns per game to opposing wide receivers. At the end, 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:08.920 I've got Trent Sherfield as my deepest dart throw receiver 0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:15.199 of the year. Gary, what's that? Gary Sheffield? Not now? 0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:18.200 Gary Sheffield is still getting paid? I think first let's 0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:19.920 just start with this. Who the hell is Trent Sherfield. 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:22.919 He's the slot receiver for the Dolphins. He has dominated 0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:25.560 the snap count over Cedric Wilson throughout the month of 0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:28.440 October and has now solidified himself as the number three 0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:31.840 receiver for Miami. Sheffield has had two decent games this year, 0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:36.280 including last week forty four yards. The Lions have benched 0:18:36.320 --> 0:18:39.040 their slot cornerback Mike Hues, and now Sherfield's going to 0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:42.960 run against a practice squad call up named A. J. Parker. 0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:45.800 Parker has played in a total of two games in 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:49.480 his career in which he has allowed one of the 0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:55.280 passes in his coverage to be completed. Trent Sherfield, It's 0:18:55.440 --> 0:18:58.520 it's a long shot, but hey, you never know. I 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:01.639 could end up working out stuff throwing those Let's go 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:05.040 back to the matchups, including Arizona taking on Minnesota. I'm 0:19:05.040 --> 0:19:07.000 gonna start with the running game, and you know Benjamin, 0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:09.640 he's had two games as the starter. Looked very good 0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:12.520 last week, I thought, and then totally ineffective the week before. 0:19:12.920 --> 0:19:16.480 Probably safely somewhere in between those things here, which is 0:19:16.520 --> 0:19:19.840 a totally lame cop out, but it's true. Minnesota owns 0:19:19.880 --> 0:19:22.600 the third best run defense according to Pro Football Focus. 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:24.920 No runners topped eighties seven yards, and that was way 0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:26.879 back in Week three. You know, it can catch a 0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:29.399 little bit, typically getting three catches a game. Vikings are 0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:30.920 middle of the road and covering runners out of the 0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:33.200 backfield have not allowed to touch down that way. James 0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:36.280 kind of ruled out of this game. Thought about giving, 0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:38.560 you know, Benjamin a B grade, but I can only 0:19:38.560 --> 0:19:40.560 get him to see here. But it's it was close, 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:43.480 but I'm gonna go with a firm C grade, you know, Benjamin. 0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:46.480 Let's go to the passing game. Kyler Murray rarely puts 0:19:46.480 --> 0:19:49.720 it all together in one game. He hasn't finished any 0:19:49.760 --> 0:19:54.359 week higher than QB seven this year, and his average 0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:58.040 finishes a disappointing QB thirteen for Kyler Murray. And didn't 0:19:58.040 --> 0:19:59.800 the new call of duty just come out too? And 0:19:59.840 --> 0:20:02.040 the new call of Duty came out on Friday? So 0:20:02.160 --> 0:20:05.000 how can Kyler Murray be expected to pay any attention 0:20:05.000 --> 0:20:08.440 to the game plan? Not gonna happen. Can it all 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:10.920 come together from Minnesota? Don't know, don't think so. We 0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:13.280 tortured the Vikings last year. I'll note that four hundred 0:20:13.359 --> 0:20:15.800 yards and three touchdowns, and the Vikings just gave up 0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:18.679 four hundred yards in their last game. But that's been 0:20:18.720 --> 0:20:21.240 an anomaly for a ben But don't break Minnesota defense 0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:24.359 that's otherwise allowed l A allowed a more manageable two 0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:27.840 hundred sixty two yards and an eighth one zero point 0:20:27.880 --> 0:20:30.119 eight touchdowns per game. So I've just got the B 0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:32.840 grade on Kyler Murray here a grin and DeAndre Hopkins. 0:20:32.880 --> 0:20:35.040 Though big game in his return last week, I don't 0:20:35.040 --> 0:20:36.520 think we need to spend a lot of time on this, 0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:38.480 but I'll note that he ran a bunch of plays 0:20:38.480 --> 0:20:40.239 from the slot last week and that would put him 0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:44.240 into the most favorable coverage against the Vikings against cornerback 0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:48.480 Shandon Sullivan, who is the weakest of the three Vikings corners. 0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:52.359 Zach Ertz also gets an A grade. Vikings linebackers have 0:20:52.400 --> 0:20:55.560 struggled against coverage, especially against tight ends Eric Kendricks and 0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:58.600 Jordan Hicks. Hicks Hicks is allowed the fourth most receiving 0:20:58.680 --> 0:21:01.920 yards of any linebacker this season, and Mike Gasecki torched 0:21:02.080 --> 0:21:06.320 the Vikings for six receptions and two touchdowns last game. 0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:08.320 And the last guy I want to talk about from 0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:11.080 the Cardinals is Ron del Moore. Normally I don't spend 0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:14.439 time on him, but he posted a career best one 0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:17.560 hundred fourteen yards against Minnesota last year and scored the 0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:21.520 only touchdown of his career against the Vikings. He's last 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:24.679 year posted the league's shortest a dot, which was right 0:21:24.720 --> 0:21:29.880 around one yard. This year six shortist so it's gonna 0:21:29.920 --> 0:21:31.280 be a lot of short stuff and that's why he's 0:21:31.280 --> 0:21:33.119 only a C grade here. But the Vikings give up 0:21:33.160 --> 0:21:34.600 a lot of cushion at the line of scrimmage, and 0:21:34.640 --> 0:21:37.320 I do see him catching five six balls. All right, 0:21:37.359 --> 0:21:39.400 let's go to the Viking side. You know, Justin Jefferson 0:21:39.440 --> 0:21:42.680 is an obvious A grade Adam feelings a seat. He's 0:21:42.720 --> 0:21:45.840 averaging just two point four yards of separation per route, 0:21:45.840 --> 0:21:49.920 that is the twelfth lowest among wide receivers. Still, he's 0:21:49.920 --> 0:21:52.000 seen at least seven targets in five straight games, and 0:21:52.000 --> 0:21:54.440 that volume should lead to a decent game here. Theeland 0:21:54.480 --> 0:21:57.520 will likely see cornerback Byron Murphy no matter where he 0:21:57.560 --> 0:21:59.600 lines up, because Murphy is one of the few cornerbacks 0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:02.520 that will go into the slot and play outside. He's 0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:04.920 allowed at least four receptions for fifty yards in each 0:22:04.920 --> 0:22:06.960 of the last three weeks, and I think fifty yards 0:22:07.000 --> 0:22:09.080 feels about right for feeling. I think they should use 0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:10.600 him more in the red zone than they do, and 0:22:10.600 --> 0:22:13.000 and hopefully that will change a nice opportunity if you 0:22:13.040 --> 0:22:14.959 need a sleeper tight end off the waiver wire, think 0:22:14.960 --> 0:22:17.040 about IRV Smith, who may be available in your league. 0:22:17.160 --> 0:22:21.040 About fifty rostered Arizona is allowed the most receptions, the 0:22:21.119 --> 0:22:24.680
