This week, we'll have nine players 15 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: upon whom you can take a chance, players that are available. 16 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: In many players you don't normally start, but you can 17 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: this week for a variety of reasons. And I have 18 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: been dreadful with my take a chance on me players 19 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: this year. I have vowed to do so much better 20 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 1: this week, in part because at least going back lowering 21 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: I'm lowering the bar a little bit on what constitutes 22 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: and take a chance on me. Player. I've been up 23 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: the sack you have. You've been red hot that peacock ready, 24 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,839 Speaker 1: I will. I don't know how you ready a peacock exactly. 25 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,759 Speaker 1: I don't think I wanted to you feed it some seed. 26 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: I think, just stop. Yeah, I don't you know. We're 27 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: prepping the peacock. We will break down every NFL game 28 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: fantasy style. We begin with San Francisco taking on New England. 29 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: Brian two weeks ago, I was saying, oh, go get 30 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. He's coming back, and then he was so 31 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: bad he got benched, and then I spent a week 32 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: regretting the fact that I told people to get Jimmy Garoppolo. 33 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: And then last week he goes out and throws three 34 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: touchdowns in the first half, just proving you can't win. Yeah. 35 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: I was gonna close with the Garoppolo on the San 36 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: Francisco side, but we'll start there. He's on the bench. 37 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: Sadly in the revenge game, Bill Belichick is just not 38 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: going to allow Jimmy Garoppolo to have a good game. 39 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 1: To the Niner. I like best in this game, is 40 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: Jerick McKinnon. Uh, even though I'm gonna give him a 41 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: C and I might give George Kittle a bee, will 42 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: get the kidle in a minute, But a cee for 43 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: McKinnon averaging nineteen touches for nearly ninety combo yards and 44 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: a touchdown per game as the starting running back. The 45 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 1: Patriots not a great matchup though they've only allowed two 46 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: total touchdowns and running back so far this year. But 47 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: they are allowing a hundred twenty eight combo yards to 48 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: the position, so jet is a pretty safe volume play. 49 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: Even though this Jim Michael Hasty kid showed a little 50 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: spunk the other the other week. This week look good, Uh, Matt, 51 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 1: get your your head at Davante Freeman's range over there 52 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: over to George Kittle can give him a B. Probably 53 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: the worst matchup for Kiddle out in the season. The 54 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: Patriots are allowing the third fewest catches per game three, 55 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 1: the sixth fewest yards per game forty to opposing tight ends. 56 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: And uh yeah, Belichick, he's gonna want to shut down Garoppolo, 57 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: but you know how he loves to take away the 58 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: team's best weapon. Opposing team's best weapon that is George Kittle, 59 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: just ask what he did to Travis Kelsey only had 60 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: three catches. Darren Waller just two catches. So I'm a 61 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: little worried about Kidle in this one. But you're definitely 62 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: not benching him. You are benching Deebo Samuel and Brandon Ayouk, 63 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: though Stefan Gilmour will be a problem for both of 64 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: these guys. And outside of the Seattle and Kansas City 65 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: wide receivers who the Patriots faced, they've kept every other 66 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: wide out out of the end zone unless they were 67 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: Seahawk or a Chief, and uh, white outs are not. 68 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: And that does it for the San Francisco side over 69 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: the New England side. James White see for him fifteen 70 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: catches and two games since returning UM, but this isn't 71 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: a great spot on paper for him either. San Francisco 72 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: has only allowed one running back to top three catches. 73 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: Miles Gascon has had the best day through the air 74 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: for running backs against San Francisco with five catches for 75 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: thirty four yards. So that's hopefully a floor for James 76 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: Waity here. He should still see double digit, double digit 77 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: PPR points. Damien Harris I got him on the bench. 78 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: San Francisco has allowed just two rushing touchdowns to running 79 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 1: backs and just one opposing back as top sixty five 80 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: rushing yards. And if there's a goal rund goal line 81 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: rush for the Patriots, it's probably we'll get to in 82 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: a second. Uh. The only pass catcher we'll talk about 83 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 1: for the Patriots is Julian Edelman. He gets a see. 84 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: San Francisco has allowed to touchdown per a lot of 85 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: touchdown per game to opposing wide receivers. Julian Edelman is 86 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,239 Speaker 1: yet to score this year, but this is a plus 87 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: match up with backup slot corner Jamark Taylor likely to 88 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: see UH Edelman and coverage most. He's allowed a hundred 89 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: and seven pass rating in his three games played as 90 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: a starting slot corner, So a c for Edelman and 91 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: kill Harry on the bench. We're not getting to that 92 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: too much. And then Cam Newton, we just talked about 93 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: forty nine ers have allowed five passing touchdowns over the 94 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: last two weeks. That's a lot. But I'm not going 95 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: to talk about Cam Newton's arm right now. It's all 96 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: about the It's nothing to talk about his arm. I 97 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: think he's averaging him to the top of my head. 98 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: I think he's averaging one hundred eighty passing yards and 99 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: half a touchdown per game. Yeah, and but against those 100 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: are those are just the bonus points for CAM at 101 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: this point, right, double digit rushing attempts in three of 102 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: five games for Cam, he scored on the ground five times. Already, 103 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: Mobile quarterbacks have had success against the Niners so far 104 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: the season. Kyler Murray, Daniel Jones, Carson Wentz combined for 105 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: a hundred and seventy seven yards on twenty three carries 106 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: with two touchdowns. Daniel Jones is mobile. He's too mobile. 107 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 1: That's the problem. You run just eighty yards at any speed, 108 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: Matt and I was down, he was going, he was cooking. 109 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: That's white guy rectored speed right there. As far as 110 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: he's going faster than his legs would physically take this, 111 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: I think somehow despite using his legs, Matt Pittsburgh takes 112 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: on Tennessee. James Conner, against all odds, remains a workhorse back. 113 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: He got when he got knocked out in Week one. 114 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: Everybody me, you know, basically rode off his his potential 115 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: to be a workhorse back. But he's proving us wrong 116 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: and pretty much every game. Yeah, and I'm giving him 117 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: an a this week. He's scored in four straight clear 118 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: to hundred yards and three of his last four, and 119 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,119 Speaker 1: the Titans are allowing five yards per carrying a hundred 120 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: and twelve yards per game to the running back position. 121 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: It is worth noting though, for those scoring at home, 122 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: Benny Snell has exactly seven carries in each of those 123 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: last two games, and Anthony McFarland only has three. So 124 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: if you're waiting on the James Conner injury, you're waiting 125 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: for the other shoe to drop any Snell is the 126 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: guy to have right now. Ben Roethlisberger, I'm giving a 127 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: b big bend, just hasn't been asked to air it out, 128 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: averaging only two d thirty six passing yards per game, 129 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: which makes him eighteenth in that category, but he's averaging 130 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: two point two passing touchdowns per game, so he's throwing 131 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: the scores. That's good. Uh. That really works here because 132 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: the Titans have allowed multiple touchdown passes to each of 133 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: the last four quarterbacks they've faced. Basically, if your name 134 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: isn't Drew Lock, you throw for multiple scores. Chase Claypool 135 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: is the number one wide receiver on the Pittsburgh Steelers 136 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: and I won't hear it any other way, will you. 137 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: You don't know that yet because every time Deonta Johnson 138 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: has been on the field with him, Deante Johnson has 139 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: been the number one receiver. You know what? Yeah, maybe 140 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: anyway we'll see. Well, we got hurt in the first quarter, 141 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: and trust me my bank roll as summer tell me 142 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: about it. Johnson out there, I'm going back to the 143 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: will this week. Um. Claypool has six scores in his 144 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: five game career and it's facing off against the Titans 145 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: defense that has allowed eleven different wide receivers to top 146 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: fifty yards or score in a game this year. And 147 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: they've only played five times. They're allowing sixteen catches per 148 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: game for almost two hundred yards the wide receiver position. 149 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: Because and that's good because we talked about Claypool. He's 150 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: only got twenty four targets on the season. That's not 151 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: a lot. Juju leads the team with twenty eight yikes. 152 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: James Washington and Deonte Johnson each have twenty six. It's 153 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: a wide receiver by MIDI now Deontay has missed exactly 154 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: on a purse game basis. Deonta Johnson is the most 155 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: targeted of them, and I know we're going to talk 156 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: a little bit about Juju later. I'm only given him 157 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: a meager C grade in this Deontay has cleared the 158 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: injury report, has the most targets per game with six 159 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: and a half, so he's worth a C start. No, 160 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: he's worth the C start here. And James Washington is 161 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: even worth a dart throw in this matchup, but he's 162 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: touchdown dependent. I'm still worried about the re injury for Deontay. 163 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: He's not even on the injury more. Okay, fine, guys, 164 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: stop fighting. Your mom and dad are fighting. Eric Ebron, 165 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: he gets a C grade. The Titans have allowed four 166 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: different teams to record a tight end touchdown in five games, 167 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: so Eric Ebron has an eight chance at a score here. 168 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: On the Titan side, Derrick Henry gets an A. But 169 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: it's more like an A subordinate. That's the anti hard mark. 170 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: It's like it's like an A if they if we 171 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: did minuses on this show. You know that. Um, you 172 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: know Henry stats. But the Steelers have been awesome against 173 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: the run, only three point two yards per carry and 174 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: fifty five yards per game to the position. But Miles Sanders, 175 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: he's the silver Lining broke a big run against them 176 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: and scored twice, so let's hope that he can return 177 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: those A grade numbers. Ryan Tannehill, he's getting a C grade. 178 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: He's third in the league with two point six touchdown 179 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: passes per game. He's got three four touchdown games. Yeah, unbelievable. 180 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: Eleventh in the league with two or seventy four passing 181 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 1: yards per game. But they haven't really played any good teams. 182 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: Buffalo is kind of good, but he's played Jacksonville, Minnesota, Houston, 183 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: and Danver. The Steelers lead the NFL in SACS pressure 184 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: rate and QB hit rate and Tannehill just lost left 185 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 1: tackle Taylor Luan. That's not good for Tannehills. He's only 186 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: getting a C grade. Uh. The Steelers are only allowing 187 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: two or fifty two yards and just under two scores 188 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: per game. I guess that's feasible for Tannehill, but I'm 189 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: not trusting it that much. A. J. Brown popped up 190 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: on the injury report and missed uh some some practice 191 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: time on Thursday, but he's been an absolute stud since 192 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: returning from injur two weeks ago, and the Steelers aren't 193 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: nearly a scary against the wide receiver this year. They 194 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: have a lot of hundred and seventy eight yards and 195 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: a score and a half to that position this year, 196 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: so I'm giving him a B. Corey Davis does return 197 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: from the COVID list, but I'm sitting him this week. 198 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: If you need another wide receiver, it's Adam Humphries. He's 199 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: a solid see he's getting a lot of run from 200 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: the slot. Caught all six of his targets for sixty 201 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: four and a score last week. And then finally John 202 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: new smithy man, it looks like he's going to be 203 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: back on the field after an ankle injury knocked him 204 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: out last week. And he's just an absolutely manly competitor. 205 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: Chart because I heard that John WU. Smith doesn't climb trees, 206 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 1: he just pulls them down and walks on them. I 207 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 1: also heard that John U. Smith once visited the virgin 208 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: Islands and now they just call him the Islands. Yeah, 209 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: but the Steelers are insanely good against the tight end, 210 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: allowing only four catches and forty three yards per game 211 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: and just one score on the season, So he's only 212 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: getting a C this week. You'll come to regret that heresy. 213 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: It's a Art Detroit takes on Atlanta for Matthew Stafford 214 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: and A grade he should cash in on a secondary 215 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: allowing almost three hundred yards and two and a half 216 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: touchdowns per game. All of US receivers have positive matchups, 217 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: as I will outline right now, beginning with Kenny Golladay, 218 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: who also gets an A grade Atlanta getting owned by 219 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: opposing Whiteouts. Eight different wide receivers have already managed the 220 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: top ninety yards against them, in most in a way 221 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: above ninety. Holiday most often will match up against cornerback 222 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 1: Kendall Sheffield, who has been brutal and ranks as cornerback 223 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: one twenty by Pro Football Focus. It is an absolute 224 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: green light special for Kenny Golladay, also getting an A 225 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: tight end t J. Hockinson, why I don't think has 226 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: ever had an A before in this show. He has 227 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: scored in each of his last two games, and he 228 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: faces a Falcon's defense that's allowed the second most yards 229 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: and the most touchdowns to opposing tight ends game on 230 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: t J. Hockenson. Sticking with the passing game, I know 231 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: it's been a disaster season for Marvin Jones, particularly the 232 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: last two weeks, with a nine yard game in an 233 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: eight yard game, but you know he will most often 234 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: be covered by rookie cornerback A. J. Terrell, who is 235 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: allowing his passes and his coverage to be completed. He 236 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: gave up seventy five yards and a touchdown in his 237 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: coverage last week. If you're feeling bold or you've got 238 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: bye week issues, Marvin Jones, You've had the bounce back 239 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 1: could very well be this week. Now let's go to 240 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: the running game. DeAndre Swift had the breakout game last week, 241 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: leading Adrian Peterson and snaps and touches. He's already proved 242 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: himself to be a good receiver and now he's getting 243 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: carries at the stripe no less, and he has a 244 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: good opportunity against a a middle of the pack run defense, 245 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: but the worst paths of the worst defense in recovering 246 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,599 Speaker 1: running backs as receivers, and I think DeAndre Swift is 247 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: sitting out a big PPR game and he gets a 248 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: B grade. Adrian Peterson only gets the ball when the 249 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: Lions are ahead, and for once that can actually happen here, 250 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: So you know, there's certainly risk and DeAndre Swift is 251 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: going to get may keep getting goal line looks, but 252 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 1: I think in a pinch in a bye week, we'll 253 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: give Adrian Peterson a C grade. Let's flip over to 254 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 1: the Atlanta side, where this is pretty easy because Matt Ryan, 255 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: Julio Jones, and Calvin Ridley are all obvious. A's Detroit 256 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: has allowed multiple passing touchdowns to every quarterback they face. 257 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: They're going to give up multiple touchdowns here. All of 258 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: the Falcons starting receivers have favorable matchups against their cornerback counterparts. 259 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: Justin Coleman cornerback remains an I R. Desmon Trufont may 260 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: Or may not play, and even when he does play, 261 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: he's been bad. So we love Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, 262 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,199 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan this week, sticking with the passing game, Hayden 263 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: Hurst tight end. On paper, the lines are a difficult 264 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: matchup for tight ends um as they've allowed opposing tight 265 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: ends to average only two catches, twenty four yards and 266 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: half a touchdown per game. But they face an extremely 267 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 1: soft schedule of tight ends, and the two competent tight 268 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: ends they face, Jimmy Graham and Robert's Tonyon Tonyon Tonyon, 269 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about that later scored touchdowns. He's tons 270 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: of fun, tons of fun. That's Robert Touny in and 271 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: he gets a C grade. Lastly, Todd Gurley coming off 272 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: a bad game, but he's still seeing plenty of volume 273 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: and face as a team allowing the third most rushing 274 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: yards on twenty four per game. He gets a B 275 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: grade here in what should be a solid outing for 276 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: Todd Gurley. When we come back, it is time for 277 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: take a chance on me. As you may be aware, 278 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: nine players not normally in your starting line up, many 279 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: of whom are available off of the waiver wire. I've 280 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: got two that are probably on the waiver wire in 281 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: my set, and I know it's a tough bye week 282 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: for many of you. Will help you out with some 283 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: unheralded players you can start this week when we return 284 00:14:44,320 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: to Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul 285 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: archy In, Brian Johnson from Guillotine Leagues dot Com, Matt 286 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: Harrison Shocked Fantasy. We encourage you to check out Matt's 287 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: waiver wire work, especially on Tuesdays at Shock Fantasy. Oh yeah, 288 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: it's time to take a chance on me. Nine players 289 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: not normally in your starting lineup. We begin at the 290 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: quarterback position. Brian, I have Joe Burrow at home versus 291 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: the Browns. Now these two teams actually faced faced off 292 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: in Week two. Already, Burrow had three sixteen yards for 293 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: three touchdowns in that game. The Browns have allowed multiple 294 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns in four of six games, at least three 295 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: touchdowns in three of those four games, Burrow has top 296 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: three yards and four of his last five Cleveland owns 297 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: of the seventh highest opponent passing play percentage. Burrow leads 298 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 1: the NFL and pass attempts per game with forty one. 299 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: I love the matchups for all his receivers, even tight 300 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: and drew sample. So Jill Burrow, okay, And your quarterback 301 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: matt a guy who's not being treated as a top 302 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: ten quarterback but is a top ten quarterback in passing yards. 303 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: That's Teddy Bridgewater. He's thrown for two seventy nine yards 304 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: per game. His issue is he's only thrown for six 305 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: touchdown passes in six games. But I think he breaks 306 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: through this week, as the Saints have allowed at least 307 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: three touchdown passes to each of the past four quarterbacks 308 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: they've faced, including a four touchdown game to Justin Herbert 309 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: in the last game that they played. So I like 310 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: Teddy here. Kyle Allen quietly coming off a really good 311 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: game last week, and he's a plausible dart throw against 312 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: a Dallas defense giving up twenty nine points per game. 313 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: And as bad as the Dallas defense is, you know, 314 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: wobbly quarterbacks have just been okay, Jared Goff and Daniel 315 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: Jones got blank, So success here is not assured for 316 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: Kyle Allen. Still, for the past five quarterbacks to face 317 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: Dallas have thrown multiple touchdowns, and Terry McLaurin all Loan 318 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: should provide a safe floor for Kyle Allen. Bryant. Let's 319 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 1: go to the running back position now, charge. I want 320 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: you to think back to Week one and how happy 321 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 1: were you at the exact moment Zack Moss caught a 322 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: touchdown pass right then Jasmin was rolling and Zack Moss 323 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: had just scored. It all seemed good for a moment. Well, 324 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: let's run it back because the Bills and Jets are 325 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: meeting again, this time in New Jersey. As I said, 326 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: Zack Moss did catch a touchdown, proved relevance in that game, 327 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: and uh, I'm basically going to will a good game 328 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: from Zack Moss here. My last two running backs and 329 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 1: take comm have scored two touchdowns, so two touchdowns coming 330 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: for Zack Moss. Buffalo needs to instill some confidence in 331 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: their rookie running back, and what better spot than against 332 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: the tanking New York Jets. Devin Singletary is not the guy, 333 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: averaging less than three yards per carry over his last 334 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: three games and after allowing just twelve total running back 335 00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: touchdowns in the Jets have already surrendered eight score us 336 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: to the position, including five in their last four games. 337 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: Zack Moss is going to finally pay off this, let's hope. 338 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: So problem Twitter loves to ravage me for Zach loss Uh, Matt, 339 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: who is your take a chance of me running back? 340 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: It's Lottavius Murray. Huh. Alvin Kamara is my favorite back 341 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: of the week, but Latavius might be the sneakiest play 342 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: of the week. He's only forty eight hundred on DraftKings, 343 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: by the way, and the Panthers are are allowing four 344 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 1: point eight yards per carry. They've already allowed eight rushing 345 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: touchdowns on the year, and in a similar matchup against 346 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: the stinky Detroit defense, the Saints deployed Murray very well 347 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: to the tune of fourteen carries, sixty four yards and 348 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: two touchdowns in that game. Speaking of yardage totals in 349 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: the sixties, Murray faced the Panthers twice last year. He 350 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 1: hit sixty yards in both games and scored in one. 351 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: Justin Jackson is might take a chance, I mean running 352 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: back up against Jacksonville in the first non Austin Ekeler 353 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 1: game for the Chargers was before last week's by Justin 354 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: Jackson out snapped and outtouched Josh Kelly by a two 355 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: to one margin and simply looked much better. The last 356 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: three backs to face Jacksonville, Joe Mixon, David Johnson DeAndre 357 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: Swift gash them for nearly seven yards per carry. This 358 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 1: is a great opportunity for Justin Jackson and actually not 359 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 1: a half bad one for Josh and Josh Kelly. If 360 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: you need to go a little bit deeper, let's go 361 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: to the wide receiver position. You take a chance of me, 362 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: player is I'm going back to the Bengals Browns game 363 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: and I got a j Green versus Cleveland. I mentioned 364 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: these teams played in Week two. A j had thirteen 365 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 1: targets in that game. Turned it into like two catches 366 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: or something. Hey, three, right there, we go. Believe it 367 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 1: or not. That was a J's first game against Cleveland 368 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: since that first time. Yeah, he's been hurt a lot, 369 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 1: but he's healthy now. And anyways, after that week two game, 370 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: things basically kept getting worse for a J until last 371 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: week against the Colts, when he had eight catches ninety 372 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: six yards on eleven targets. The Browns have allowed the 373 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 1: third most targets end receptions to wide receivers, who have 374 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: also been very active inside the twenties. Against Cleveland, the 375 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: Browns have yielded the most red zone targets and red 376 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 1: zone touches to the position. I use this term last 377 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: week with swift, but a J Green and elite GPP 378 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 1: play this week. Alright, Matt, Your take a chance of 379 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: the receiver is lots of people need help at the 380 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: tight end question, So I'm going to help him out 381 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: this week. Darren Fells, uh, he plays for the Houston Texans. 382 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 1: If you're not aware, Jordan Aikins looks like he's still 383 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: gonna miss some time with both concussion and ankle injuries. 384 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: And it's worth noting a few things about Darren Fells. 385 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: He scored in each of the last two games since 386 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: Jordan Nakins got hurt, He's cleared fifty yards in both 387 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: of those contests. He's averaging fourteen point six yards per catch, 388 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: which is very high for a tight end. High and 389 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: three different tight ends have topped fifty yards against the 390 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: Packers in the last four games. I think Darren Fells 391 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: great chance of topping fifty and scoring again. If you 392 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: need help at wide receiver, I will give you a 393 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: similar deep opportunity for you with DeMarcus Robinson against Denver 394 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 1: that is deep. Sammy Watkins is out, so DeMarcus Robinson 395 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: starts and out. Last week, Robinson was on the field 396 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: for of the Chief Snaps. I'm interested in any carbon 397 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: based life form that's on the field of the snaps 398 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: and you can catch passes from Patrick Mahomes DeMarcus Robinson 399 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: carbon based life form. Denver's got one good cornerback, Bryce Callahan. 400 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 1: He's gonna shadow Tyreek Hill. That puts Robinson up against 401 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: very inexperienced cornerbacks. Michael O, Jim Medulla and Davante Bosby 402 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: made those names up. I probably may have missed pronounced 403 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: both of them. I think you're playing boggle last night 404 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: with roxy and Marcus Robinson is your third you actually 405 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: ninth third receiver at ninth take a chance of me player, 406 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: and one let's flip back over to some matchups, Brian, 407 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: including Buffalo taking on the New York Jets. Now you 408 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: told us you like Zack Moss as a take a chance, 409 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: I mean sleep or what about Devin's Singletary against the Jets. Yeah, 410 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: I don't like him as much. I'm still even him 411 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: as see though I mentioned uh average has averaged three 412 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 1: point three yards per carry or less in four of 413 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: six games this year, that includes the Jets game in 414 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: Week one. Singletary did not show up there on the ground. 415 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: He did have a season hind catches in that game 416 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 1: with five, and the Jets are yielding seven plus targets 417 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: per game to the position. But man Singletary scares me 418 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: even what in what's become a good matchup? As I said, 419 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 1: the Jets, after lying twelve total touchdowns all of last season, 420 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: have already allowed eight five in their last four games. 421 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: But just to see for Singletary, and as you said, 422 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 1: charge Zack Moss might take a chance on me running 423 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: back over the receiving game for Buffalo, Stefon Diggs gets 424 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: and A didn't score in the Week one game, but 425 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: at eight catches for eighties six yards, the Jets have 426 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: only surrender five wide receiver touchdowns. But Tim Patrick and 427 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: Deadore Hopkins both topped hundred top to hundred yards and 428 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 1: scored in recent weeks, so still in a for Digs. 429 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: John Brown has been ruled out, um, so get him 430 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: on your bench. He had six catches for seventy yards 431 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: and a touchdown in Week one. Cole Beasley is gonna 432 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: see a lot more work with Brown out. Beasley at 433 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: four for fifty eight and the opener. Uh, and with 434 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: Brown out you see a few more targets come in 435 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: his way. I'm not gonna go the way of Gabriel Davis. Yeah, 436 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 1: if you're a daily player, he's probably He's rosterable at 437 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: this point because John John Brown remains out, Davis will 438 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: be viable, but I have him on the bench here. 439 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, though obviously not on the bench. Twelve passing 440 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: yards to passing touchdowns, fifty seven rushing yards and a 441 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 1: rushing touchdown in that Week one game. Ryan Fitzpatrick just 442 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: three for three touchdowns and what and what might be 443 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: his last start ever George, don't talk like that. Last 444 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: week shut you against the Jets. Even Brett Rippon tossed 445 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: two scores on New York and Week four, So an 446 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: easy a for Josh Allen over to the Jet side. 447 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: Not a whole lot to talk about Jameson Crowder can 448 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: give him a be even though he is downgraded this 449 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 1: week with a groin issue. You gotta keep your eye 450 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: on that. But he had seven catches and fifteen yards 451 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: and a touchdown in the Week one opener, basically matchup 452 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: proof when healthy. Even with Flacco under center, he's seeing 453 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: double digit targets. Hopefully Sam Donald can make his return, 454 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: though that's still t B D but B for Crowder 455 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: and he's the only Jets player at the starting grade 456 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 1: Frank Gore Le Michael Perryan on the bench. Every team 457 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: in the NFL has run at least ten plays at 458 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 1: the goal line except the Jets. On the season, every Yeah, 459 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 1: except the Jets. They've run two to well, that makes 460 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 1: sense to Yeah, there's there's no winning with the with 461 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: the Jets other than Jamison Crowder. That's about it. Yeah, 462 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 1: we'll take a break when we come back.

Yeah, thank you, thank you. If that's the 467 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: kind of uncanny inside that you can only get from 468 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly.

All the 476 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 1: notable players get letter grades A, B, C or bench. Now, 477 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: some people have suggested that we should add in a 478 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 1: D grade for desperation. Yeah, maybe dart throw Maybe. UM, 479 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 1: I'm not totally opposed to that idea. Let us know 480 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: if you care. On Twitter, you can follow me at 481 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: Paul Chargi, and you can follow Brian at b t 482 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: x J and Matt Harrison is at Explosive Output on Twitter. 483 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: Should we have a D grade to further delineate. And 484 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: my feeling has always been, if you're a D grade, 485 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: really you're a bench guy. Hashtag I want the D 486 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,959 Speaker 1: a lot of interpreting. Keep that D away from me. 487 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: Carolina takes on New Orleans Matt and for Carolina already 488 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:39,959 Speaker 1: told us you like Teddy Bridgewater he was gonna take 489 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: a chance I mean quarterbacks, so you must love his 490 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: receivers as well. Well, yeah, let's talk about Robbie Anderson 491 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 1: and d J. Moore. I mentioned that the Saints are 492 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: giving up three touchdown passes per game over their last four. 493 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: They're only giving up eight point eight receptions per game 494 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,719 Speaker 1: to the wide receiver position on the seat on the 495 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: on the whole season. That's the lowest total in the league. 496 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: But sixteen percent of the wide receiver catches the Saints 497 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 1: allow go for a touchdown. So if I'm gonna give 498 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: both of these players bees, because if one of every 499 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: six catches they have is going to go for a touchdown, 500 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: all we need is Robby Anderson to get to his 501 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: normal seven catches per game, and we need a little 502 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 1: bit of luck for d J. Moore, who averages four 503 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: and a half catches per game, but he leads the 504 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: team in area yards and he's going to be a 505 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: completely forgotten DFS play. And I really like the match 506 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: up here. He's only fifty d K, so I like 507 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: him both B grades. Uh. The only other guy to 508 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,199 Speaker 1: start on the Carolina side Mike Davis. He gets a 509 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: C in this one. There's no denying that Davis has 510 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: been a great fill in for CMC, but much of 511 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 1: his value comes from the passing game, where he ranks 512 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,239 Speaker 1: in the top four in targets, receptions per game, and 513 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: receiving yards per game amongst running backs. The problem is 514 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 1: the Saints have the number four defense against the run 515 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: according to d v o A, and they're really good 516 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: against pass catching backs, allowing only five catches and thirty 517 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 1: one yards per game through the air. So it's just 518 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: a C grade for Mike Davis on the Saints side. 519 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara is this week's fantasy ard Vark. Oh and 520 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,679 Speaker 1: how did the fantasy art vark do last week? You asked, Well, 521 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: I hope pretty well. He is the fantasy ardvark after all. Well, 522 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry at two before totally arc and two scores 523 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: last week, so you can bank on that. For Kamara 524 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: this week. Um, and also let's have a after the 525 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: room as well. But I don't know if actually didn't think. 526 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: I don't think you can take a pick to take 527 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: a peacock. I don't think so. Uh. Kamara leads all 528 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: running backs and targets, receptions and receiving yards, and it's 529 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: facing a Carolina squad that's allowed the most receptions in 530 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: league to opposing backs, and frankly, they're going to need 531 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: him to catch passes this week with Michael Thomas out 532 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: and Emmanuel Sanders out, and let's talk about them. Thomas 533 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: officially out with a hamstring injury, likely from favoring his 534 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: injured ankle, and Emmanuel Sanders was just put on the 535 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: COVID list. I guess that means Tray Smith. Baby, let's 536 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: fire him up a little Jared Cook too. Yeah, I'll 537 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: give him. I'll give him a B grade in this one, 538 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: just because there's nobody else to throw too. And the 539 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: Panthers are allowing a league low a hundred and thirty 540 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: two yards per game to the wide receiver position. But 541 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: it's all going to Tray Kuan Smith or maybe Benny Fowler. Yikes. No, 542 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: Um'm not ready to go there, Jared Cook, I will 543 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: give a C grade two. He's hit the fifty yard 544 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: mark or scored in fourteen of his last fifteen games, 545 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: and he scored in both matchups with the Panthers last year, 546 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: So you know I had him as a C. I'll 547 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: bump him up to a B with with the news 548 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: of Thomas and Sanders both being out and then Drew Brees, 549 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: I'm giving him a C grade for the record, Breeze 550 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: is now kind of eligible for take a chance on me. 551 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: I know he's getting into that category. Um, he's been 552 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: a middle of the road thrower and the Panthers defense 553 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 1: is only allowing two or twenty three passing yards and 554 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: just over one passing score per game. So that's just 555 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: not enough for Drew Brees to have a great matchup. 556 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: Breeze isn't the king of that category. Now are you're 557 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: talking about of what being a take a chance let 558 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: me quarterback? What do you mean he's a take a 559 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: chance on me quarterback? Every week? You said Breeze is 560 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: almost in that category of being put Drew Breese into that. 561 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: I think people still think he's getting there, and I'm 562 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: saying he's there, man, Well, no, that's what I said. 563 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: I said, he's there. Now. Can we move on? Okay, yeah, 564 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: go to the next matchup? All right, thank how about me? 565 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: Dallas takes on Washington. That's much more interesting. Let's start 566 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: with Zeke. Why don't we? He's got an A grade. 567 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: He created an instant rapport with Andy Dalton, catching a 568 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: season best eight receptions on a salivating eleven targets. Match 569 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: up with Washington comes at a perfect time because they 570 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: are allowing one fourteen total yards and a touchdown per 571 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,479 Speaker 1: game to opposing running backs. Fully expect Zeke to get 572 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: plenty of work here. Then let's go to the passing game, 573 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: beginning with Andy Dalton. He's pretty bad last week, but 574 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: unlike last week, there's no chance Washington puts him in 575 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: an early deficit and forces the game script to be 576 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: obviously passing. I still worry about the Cowboys makeshift offensive 577 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: line against the four first rounders that Washington's got on 578 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: their defensive front four. Still, each of his receivers, Frandy 579 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: Dalton has got a strongly positive match up against their 580 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: cornerback counterparts, and we'll talk about them in just a 581 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: moment here beginning. And so it's a C grade on 582 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton Ceedee Lamb A grade. He's got eleven. He 583 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: had eleven targets and Dalton's first start eleven. The best 584 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: place to attack Washington is from the slot. That's where 585 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb plays. He will face woefull cornerback Jimmy Moreland 586 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: more like Jimmy Moore yards if you know what I'm saying. 587 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: And he ranks as cornerback nine six by Pro Football Focus, 588 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: and he's allowing eleven yards per reception. I like Ceedee 589 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: Lamb a lot in this game. MARII Cooper gets a 590 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: B grade. He was also heavily used by Dalton last week, 591 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: and Washington has been good against outside white outs, only 592 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: allowing ten receptions per game. But Cooper's one of four 593 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: receivers with forty plus catches and five hundred plus yards 594 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: so far this season. He runs predominantly from the right 595 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: hand side, where Cooper has a massive size advantage over 596 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: his most common cornerback, which is going to be Ronald Darby, 597 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: who was basically a track star wearing shoulder pads. Then 598 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: let's go to Michael Gallup. He is on the bench 599 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 1: because he runs predominantly from the left where'll face off 600 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: against cornerback Kendall Fuller, who's having an astounding season. Get 601 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: this just like last year. By the way, nobody has 602 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: scored on Fuller this year. Nobody scored on Fuller last year. 603 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: Uh He's There have been three completed passes in his 604 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: coverage this season for Kendall Fuller. The passer rating on 605 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: balls thrown at Kendall Fuller is nine nine times. If 606 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: that's staggering, Brian, we need a Kendall Fuller shutdown nickname 607 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: he's ideating over there. You've come about how about full stop, 608 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 1: full stop Fuller full stop, just full stop stop Kendall 609 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: full stop. I'm trying to go full Monty, but there's nothing, 610 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: nothing there that continue. Last last receiver option for Andy 611 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: Dalton is Dalton Schultz with a good matchup opposing tight 612 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: ends or averaging more than five catches and sixty four 613 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: yards per game against Washington with five total touchdowns. Sheltz 614 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: has at least four catches and four of the last 615 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: five games. Save flour with a little upside B grade 616 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: for Dalton Schultz in a difficult week for tight ends, 617 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 1: I think he's absolutely startable available. By the way, in 618 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: half of leagues. So if you're in a pinch of 619 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: tight end, there's your guy. How about we call him 620 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: Ken dall Fuller's that positive keep working right, thank you, 621 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: And it doesn't have knees that bend. Kyle Allen, We're 622 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: going he doesn't have something that's way more important. Stop 623 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: stop Kyle Allen. It was might take a chance to 624 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: me quarterback. Let's talk about his receiver. Well, and it's 625 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: really just one receiver. Kerry McLaurin of the Cowboys have 626 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: surrendered the second most touchdowns to wide receivers eleven and 627 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: have been burned relentlessly by boundary receivers. The Cowboys just 628 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 1: got cornerback Hidobe A Woozy back from injury. Not that 629 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 1: he's great, but he's a massive upgrade from Darryl Worley. 630 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: Woozy allowed two scores in his last healthy game back 631 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: in Week two. Give him two touchdowns. So Terry McLaurin 632 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: a grade the first time. I believe he's had an 633 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: A grade this year. Staying with the passing game, well, 634 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:33,399 Speaker 1: quasi passing game. J D. Mcsuckett, She's who has been 635 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: shockingly good this year. What did he do to your hamster? 636 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,879 Speaker 1: I still understand do you call him on the bench 637 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 1: this week. I know you've kept giving him starting grades 638 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 1: like over and over, but I can't give up the nickname. 639 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: I'm committed to the bit now. He's been a PPR workhorse, 640 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 1: averaging seven targets per game over the last three games. 641 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: But you gotta pick your spots with j D. Mcsuckett. 642 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: And unfortunately, the Cowboys are allowing the fewest receptions and 643 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: the fewest receiving yards per game him do opposing running backs. 644 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: So this is not the spot four. J D. Mcsucking 645 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 1: can't wait till you meet him one day? Well, I 646 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: know after I will, I will issue a lavish apology 647 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: to j D. If that happens. Now. My favorite sneaky 648 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: play of the day Antonio Gibson. He's been struggling behind 649 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 1: a horrible offensive line, but a get right opportunity is 650 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 1: here against the Cowboys, a team allowing twenty eight rushing 651 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: attempts for one hundred thirty six rushing yards and almost 652 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,800 Speaker 1: a touchdown and a half per game to opposing running backs. 653 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: Those are each most or second most in the league. 654 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,240 Speaker 1: The return of linebacker Shaun Lee strengthens the Cowboys defense 655 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: but I believe Antonio Gibson remains a solid start. You 656 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 1: could trade for him for almost nothing, by the way, 657 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: right now, and I recommend that you do that. Let's 658 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: go to our next matchup, which is UH Cleveland taking 659 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: on Cincinnati. Brian Baker Mayfield, benched in the last game, 660 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 1: is he's startable this week against the Bengals again. These 661 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: teams played in Week two, the Browns and Bengals. In 662 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: that game, Baker Mayfield had two d nineteen passing yards, 663 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. That's probably his floor here. Including that game, 664 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 1: the Bengals have surrendered surrendered multiple touchdown passes and four 665 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 1: of their last five games, including three seventy one yards 666 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 1: and three passing touchdowns to Philip Rivers last week. So 667 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: if Rivers puts up those kind of numbers, I'm still 668 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 1: gonna start Mayfield with the sea over to his receivers 669 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham borderline A, but I'm gonna give him a 670 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: B here. He had four catches, seventy four yards and 671 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,239 Speaker 1: a touchdown in the first meeting. Oh b g is 672 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: second in red zone targets and has seen the third 673 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: most end zone targets so far this season. The Bengals 674 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,919 Speaker 1: have allowed at least one wide receiver touchdown in five 675 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 1: straight games, and we'll be without their top cornerback William 676 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: Jackson the third. So actually a Odell Beckham, I've changed 677 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,760 Speaker 1: my mind. Jarvis Landry gonna give him a c Apparently 678 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,759 Speaker 1: has been playing with a broken rib. He disclosed this week. 679 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: Still gonna play just three target it's in the first meeting, 680 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: but caught all of them for forty six yards. He 681 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: just needs to see more volume, but he has. He 682 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: has a good matchup against slot cornerback Mackenzie Alexander, who 683 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 1: has surrendered at least sixty three yards and or a 684 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: score in two of his last three games. Austin Hooper, 685 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: I was going to give him a be but he 686 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: has been ruled out with an appendeck to me, which 687 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: brings in my prespect from a few weeks ago. Harrison Bryant. Now, 688 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 1: I didn't accurately predict the appendeck to me, but I said, 689 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 1: Harrison though that that would you'd have a new career. 690 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: And Harrison Bryant gets a chance to see significant target volume, 691 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: He's gonna go off and this is a good matchup 692 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: for it, since he has allowed at least four catches 693 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,760 Speaker 1: and fifty yards to every competent tight end they've faced. 694 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: And they've also surrendered three touchdowns of the positions over 695 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: their last two Bryant bear minimum on DK, so keep 696 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: that in mind. And lastly, for the Browns, we have 697 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 1: to mention Kareem Hunt. Of course, uh. In that Week 698 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,879 Speaker 1: two game, Nick Chubb and Cream Hunt combined for two 699 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,720 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty four combo yards and four touchdowns, three rushing, 700 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 1: one receiving. Of course, there's no Chub this time around. 701 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 1: UH and Hunt struggled last week against the Steelers, but 702 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh is ranked first against the run by Football Outsiders 703 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:13,240 Speaker 1: d v o A, Cincinnati's ranks one, and the Bengals 704 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: have held running back scorers in four straight games. But 705 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 1: I don't care. I'm giving Kareem hunting about Ernest Johnson. 706 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,359 Speaker 1: Is he a dart throw in a bye week? I 707 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: think yeah, you have to be very, very very desperate. 708 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: He would be a d earnest d exactly. We can 709 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: go at that over to the Bengal side. Joe Mixon 710 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 1: ruled out with a foot injury that brings geover Joe 711 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,200 Speaker 1: Bernard into play, and even tray ViOn Williams. Possibly, I'm 712 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 1: gonna give a seed to Bernard and leave Williams on 713 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: the bench, but add him in deeper leagues for sure. 714 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 1: Everybody you know, So it's gonna be interesting because you're 715 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 1: only giving him a C grade and you'll explain why. 716 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,240 Speaker 1: But everybody is. Everybody's picking up and starting Giovanni Bernard, 717 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 1: assuming that they found gold here, explain why he's only 718 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: a secret. I think you just found bronze, clean clear. 719 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: Eveland hadn't allowed running back to top fifty seven rushing 720 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: yards until James Conner last weekend. Bernard has ever been 721 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: a great runner. He's a pass catcher. He did. He 722 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: did have five catches in the week two games, so 723 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 1: that's probably is receiving four. Maybe I'll give him a 724 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 1: B and p PRSC and standard. But it's not a 725 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: great match up against the Browns. That run defense as 726 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: far superior than that. Their past defense so far, the 727 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: run defense has been great. Yeah, definitely. Uh, speaking of 728 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 1: the past defense for Cleveland, not great. I like Tyler 729 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:26,800 Speaker 1: Boyd can give him a B. He had seven catches, 730 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: seventy two yards and a touchdown in the first meeting. 731 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: The Browns have allowed the third most targets and receptions 732 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 1: to wide receivers, and they have also yielded the most 733 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: red zone targets and red zone touches to the position. 734 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 1: That gives t Higgins a B as well. Higgins had 735 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 1: three catches on six targets in the first meeting with Cleveland, 736 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: but since then he's been seeing way more looks. With 737 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 1: target totals of nine, seven, eight, and eight. Cleveland has 738 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: allowed and nine wide receiver touchdowns in six games. You 739 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: can it's ten with if you chount count the Chase 740 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: Claypool rushing touchdown A J. Green. I love him in 741 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: this matchup to he was might take a chance on 742 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:04,360 Speaker 1: me wide receiver and not lastly, Drew Sample, I was 743 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: close to getting the starting grade. The Browns had allowed 744 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 1: four tight end touchdowns through the through the first four 745 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:10,919 Speaker 1: weeks of the season, but over the last two games 746 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: they limited the Colts tight ends and Eric Ebron to 747 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,760 Speaker 1: a combined seven catches for forty two yards. So Sample 748 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: on the bench, but I got my on him in 749 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,839 Speaker 1: daily for sure. And then Joe Burrow was gonna take 750 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: a chance to the quarterback. He can go off, take end, 751 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: go off. Let me see if we have time here again. Yeah, 752 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 1: I think we can sneak in one more matchup. Now, 753 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: let's let's go for it. Matt green Bay taking on Houston. 754 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, coming off of one of the worst games 755 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,959 Speaker 1: of his entire career, couldn't get a softer bounce back 756 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:42,439 Speaker 1: opponent than Houston. Right. That was the third career pick 757 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: six for Aaron Rodgers. That's insane. Now, the career leader 758 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 1: in pick sixes is Brett Farve, by the way, with 759 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 1: thirty one. Oh Man Drew Brees is the current active 760 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: leader with twenty seven. He's had three pick six is 761 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: in thirteen years. That's crazy. And he's got a chip 762 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,240 Speaker 1: on his shoulder. And he gets to face the Texans 763 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,439 Speaker 1: team that's allowed three yards and multiple scores to both 764 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 1: of the last two quarterbacks they've faced. A grade for Rogers, 765 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 1: a grade for Davante Adams. Texans have already allowed nine 766 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 1: touchdowns to wide receivers in just six games. That even 767 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 1: brings m v S in with a C grade, as 768 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,399 Speaker 1: six wide receivers have topped fifty yards against the Texans 769 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 1: in just the last three weeks. The other receiver we 770 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 1: got to talk about is Robert Tonyan Tonyan because the Packers. 771 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,480 Speaker 1: Pr announced this week that his name is actually pronounced 772 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 1: Tony in which rhymes with Funyan, and he just didn't 773 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,919 Speaker 1: feel like correcting anybody for two years. Well, first of all, 774 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 1: nobody cared about him for two years, so nobody was 775 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 1: talking about him. Let's power rank mispronunciations between Brett Favre, 776 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 1: Torod Taylor, and which is the most ridiculous there's that? 777 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: So because his names fla, you got that really really 778 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: right somehow for care, I'm glad you did. Because his 779 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: name now sounds like a snack food. He's now my 780 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 1: favorite player until George Kittle announces there's actually an s 781 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: on the beginning of his name, and then he's my 782 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:14,840 Speaker 1: favorite player again. So the Texans allowed Anthony Firkser to 783 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 1: clean house against them last week after John who went 784 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 1: down with an injury. Firkser ended up with eight for 785 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 1: one thirteen and one sounds like would have been John 786 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 1: whose numbers sounds like tons of fun for Tony in 787 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 1: Um and then Aaron Jones. He popped up on the 788 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,240 Speaker 1: injury report with a calf string and missed some practice 789 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,479 Speaker 1: on Friday and now is listed is a game time 790 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 1: decision if he goes. He's still in a grade because 791 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 1: it's a bad Houston defense that's allowed the most rushing 792 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 1: yards in the league and is giving up five point 793 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: nine yards per carry if he doesn't go. I think 794 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: both Jamal Williams and A J. Dillon are startable. I'd 795 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 1: give Williams a B grade and I'd give Dylan a 796 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 1: C because the matchup is just so ripe for them, 797 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: and I think they'd probably whit carries a little bit 798 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: more with Aaron Jones out of the lineup. On the 799 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 1: Houston side. Uh, let's start with their running back, David Johnson. 800 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: He still sucks. I mentioned it last week, and I 801 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: gave him a B grade last week and he scored 802 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 1: this week. I'm only giving him a C because his 803 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: nineteen carries for fifty seven yards doesn't taste good. It's 804 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,399 Speaker 1: not what a good back does. He's not a good back. 805 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 1: He's like late nineties Leroy Horde and we'll just get 806 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: you two to three yards every play. Uh. And it's 807 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 1: a decent matchup. The Packers have allowed two touchdowns to 808 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 1: a running back four times already this season. Deshaun Watson's 809 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,919 Speaker 1: getting an A grade since David Johnson is not good. 810 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: Watson's gonna have to do it for the Texans. He's 811 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 1: had three hundred plus passing yards in three straight and 812 00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,880 Speaker 1: multiple scores in four straight. And the Packers allowed multiple 813 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 1: scores to every quarterback they've faced, except for the weird 814 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan game which Julio was injured and Calvin Ridley 815 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,399 Speaker 1: did like a disappearing act in that game. That was weird. 816 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,839 Speaker 1: Will Fuller gets only a C grade in this one. 817 00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 1: He's averaging four points seven catches per game, but he's 818 00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 1: gonna get Jaire Alexander about that. The best player on 819 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,439 Speaker 1: the Packers unimpressive defense, Jire help helped hold every wide 820 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: receiver except Adam Feeling and check Mike Evans only managed 821 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: one for ten in his coverage last week. I've got 822 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 1: Fuller benched on a bunch of leagues. I got sea 823 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,320 Speaker 1: grades on Brandon Cooks and Randall Cobb as well. Um, 824 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 1: the Packers have only allowed five receptions per game to 825 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: slot receivers this season, and it is a Randall Cob 826 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,600 Speaker 1: revenge game, so we got that going for us. Okay, 827 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 1: you know, and Darren Fells might take a chance on 828 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 1: me tight end. Yeah, they should be using Randall Cobb 829 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 1: a little bit more. I think, although they used him 830 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 1: a bit last week, and for what they're paying him, 831 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 1: they should anyway.

Fantasy Football Weekly. 838 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:20,800 Speaker 1: Back in moments, Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Charchi 839 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,920 Speaker 1: and Brian Johnson and Matt Harrison with you. Thank you 840 00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: for listening. This is a game we call three Tough Questions. 841 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 1: We encourage you to play along. Try to go three 842 00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:34,720 Speaker 1: and oh. Tough question number one, does Antonio Brown belong 843 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:40,239 Speaker 1: on fantasy rosters in typically sized leagues? Brian, Now, is 844 00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: this under the presumption he is going to the Seahawks. No, 845 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,319 Speaker 1: we don't know as of right this moment, as we 846 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 1: are talking, we don't know. Then the answers is, no, 847 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 1: I don't know. I have nothing to back it up really, 848 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: because the guy's nuts and I can't really trust him. 849 00:45:58,200 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, if he does go to Seattle 850 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,839 Speaker 1: and I roster DK metcalf and or Tyler Lockett, that's 851 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:06,880 Speaker 1: the only reason I would uh add Antonio Brown to 852 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 1: my fantasy team if he was on the Seahawks. But 853 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: I just know I can't do it. There's no way 854 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,400 Speaker 1: to even research why this would be a good or 855 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 1: bad idea. By gut tells me. No, that's all I 856 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 1: can give you. I'm sorry, Matt. See I say, there's 857 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 1: no other player on the waiver wire right now who 858 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 1: offers the upside that Antonio Brown does. Because number one, 859 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: he's not going to go to some scrub team if 860 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: he comes back, he's going to go to a contender. 861 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: So think about if he signs with Green Bay on 862 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 1: Monday morning, how much fab would you spend on him 863 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 1: playing with Aaron Rodgers. Or think if he signs with 864 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 1: Baltimore or he ended up in Kyle Shanahan's offense or 865 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 1: Arizona with Kyler and Hopkins. Yeah, he's been waiting at 866 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 1: the baggage claim for a long time, but he didn't 867 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 1: leave the league due to lack of talent. He left 868 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 1: due to stuff between his ears, and if he can 869 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: get that cleared up, I think that he belongs on rosters. Yeah, 870 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 1: all right, so we have a no. One. Yes, So 871 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 1: f Antonio Brown to become a reliable fantasy producer. Here 872 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,160 Speaker 1: is what needs to happen. Number one, he has to 873 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 1: get signed and hopefully to a team that doesn't stink. 874 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 1: To your point, Matt believes it's automatic that he'll go 875 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,319 Speaker 1: to a contender. I don't. He needs to be in 876 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 1: immediate football shape. We have no idea if he's keeping 877 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 1: himself in football shape ready to hit the ground running. 878 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 1: We don't know. He needs to learn a new offensive scheme, routes, 879 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: syn tax, rhythm with a quarterback, all that has He's 880 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 1: gotta learn all that. Then Antonio Brown has to vault 881 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,360 Speaker 1: over three or four depth receivers to become a starter. 882 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,360 Speaker 1: Then they has to get enough snaps and enough targets 883 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:42,719 Speaker 1: to reliably Phil Box scores that you feel like you 884 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:47,040 Speaker 1: can put him in your your into your lineup. Then 885 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 1: he needs to not burn bridges with coaches, teammates, in 886 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 1: front office personnel. Then he needs to not get resuspended 887 00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:58,720 Speaker 1: by the league over the ongoing investigation into Antonio Brown's 888 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: sexual assault allegations that have been levied against him and 889 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 1: is still an ongoing NFL investigation. All any one of 890 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 1: those goes sideways, and he can't make an impact for 891 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,359 Speaker 1: your fantasy team. I can find somebody on the waiver 892 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,399 Speaker 1: wire who's better than that. I thought you were gonna say, yes, 893 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: he belongs on teams after after all that, by the way, 894 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 1: that he's really good. So take him his lawyer. You 895 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,600 Speaker 1: may have missed this. About a month ago. His lawyer 896 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 1: walked away from him. The guy who he's paying to 897 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 1: defend him tapped out. That says plenty when your own 898 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 1: lawyer goes, you know what, I'm I'd really rather go 899 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 1: try to defend an axe murderer. He's probably so. I 900 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,279 Speaker 1: don't know that we can assume whatsoever that he's turned 901 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: the corner. Tough question number two since his big opening 902 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 1: day game, Juju Smith Schuster is wide receiver eighty averaging 903 00:48:56,920 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 1: thirty one yards and a quarter of a touched down 904 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:04,320 Speaker 1: per game. Are you buying low or you're just glad 905 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 1: you don't have him? Matt His uh average depth of 906 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 1: target is four point seven yards. Now you could fall 907 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 1: forward for four point seven most. I mean, if you're 908 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 1: really tall and you get your arms outstretched, that's not good. Uh, 909 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool's the best wide receiver on that roster. I 910 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,319 Speaker 1: don't care that it's been five games. The Steelers do 911 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: this all the time. It's ridiculous. They just find wide receivers. 912 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: Juju is just a slot receiver now. He's Russell Gauge 913 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 1: with fewer targets. He's Adam Humphreys with fewer receptions. He's 914 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:39,919 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley with about half the yards per game. That's 915 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 1: what Juju is. He's got a fun name, but he's 916 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 1: just a slot guy now. Okay, Brian Yeah, and Redraft, 917 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 1: I'm out. As Matt said, Juju is basically the third 918 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 1: best option at best for Pittsburgh. But in Dynasty, I'm 919 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 1: a little more intrigued. This is Juju's fourth theater in 920 00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: the league. He is currently younger than the follow going players. 921 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:05,359 Speaker 1: Deante Johnson, Van Jefferson, who's a rookie, Deebo, Samuel Terry 922 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: McClure and needs are all rookies last year too, Jefferson, 923 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,800 Speaker 1: d J Chark, Michael Gallup, in Courtland Sutton. So Juju 924 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 1: is essentially a rookie still in terms of age, I'm 925 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,680 Speaker 1: not gonna give up on him entirely. In Dynasty. I 926 00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:19,120 Speaker 1: will buy him for pennies on the dial dollar, but 927 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 1: I'm not touching him in in redraft. All Right. Since 928 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 1: the preseason, I've been saying that Juju was going to 929 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:25,759 Speaker 1: be the odd man out in his passing game. You 930 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:27,880 Speaker 1: guys know that, and you were you you heard we 931 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:31,319 Speaker 1: were there. Yeah. But even so, at this point, he's 932 00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:34,120 Speaker 1: so incredibly cheap. And that's really the big part of 933 00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:38,279 Speaker 1: this is we're buying woe. Philosophically, I like to buy 934 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 1: low on good players, particularly when there isn't something wrong 935 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 1: with that player or wrong with the offense. And I 936 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 1: think he's good. I don't think Juju is great. He's 937 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 1: not great. There was a time when people thought he 938 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:52,279 Speaker 1: was great, like, for example, August when he was going 939 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 1: off the board as wide receiver twelve and people thought 940 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:58,080 Speaker 1: he was great. Steelers are passed thereby, and their schedules 941 00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:01,120 Speaker 1: predominantly favorable. Other than the two games with Baltimore that 942 00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:05,319 Speaker 1: are left. Now, defenses are gonna have to reckon with 943 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:09,799 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool. Right. This is the scenario where Juju thrived 944 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 1: two years ago where defense has had to reckon with 945 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:15,879 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown and that left Juju open across the middle 946 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,319 Speaker 1: of the field. I think this could be the role 947 00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:22,160 Speaker 1: back that would favor him that same way. Listen to 948 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:24,040 Speaker 1: the slack cornerbacks he's gonna face for the rest of 949 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:26,839 Speaker 1: the year outside again, Baltimore is excellent slack cornerback. You're 950 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 1: gonna make up all these names, Christian Fulton, Jordan Lewis, Mackenzie, 951 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:36,240 Speaker 1: Alexander Trey Herndon, Jimmy Moreland, Cameron Lewis, kennymore and Kevin Johnson. 952 00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 1: Those are all winnable matchups for the price that you 953 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 1: have to pay to get Juju Smith Schuster. At this point, 954 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:46,760 Speaker 1: from a frustrated and probably like one in five owner, 955 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 1: we're buying Juju Smith Schuster. Tough question number three. Last week, 956 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:56,720 Speaker 1: lines running back DeAndre Swift posted his first ever big 957 00:51:56,760 --> 00:52:01,880 Speaker 1: game going forward? Is DeAndre Whift and RB one and 958 00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 1: RB two a flex or a bench player Bryan uh 959 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,720 Speaker 1: going the rest of the way. Detroit is top twelve 960 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 1: in running back strength of schedule in terms of the 961 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 1: easiest schedule, so things look good on that front. But 962 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: there are a few blockers in the mix for the Lions, 963 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 1: the Colts, the Bears, the Bucks in Week sixteen, but 964 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:23,800 Speaker 1: the primary blocker for DeAndre Swift is obviously Adrian Peterson. 965 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,959 Speaker 1: Right now, the Lions backfield is averaging a hundred forty 966 00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 1: six Comboy yards in one point four total touchdowns per game, 967 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,480 Speaker 1: and Swift isn't even seeing half the touches. He only 968 00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 1: saw forty percent of the touches in the blow up 969 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 1: game against the Jaguars last week. He just needs more touches, 970 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 1: and I do think they ramp up over time. But 971 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,839 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson is not going anywhere. He and Frank Gore 972 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,759 Speaker 1: gonna open a bed and breakfast for the cockroaches once 973 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 1: the nuclear holocaust hits. So I'm just gonna go with 974 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 1: a He's gonna have r B two upside. But if 975 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,480 Speaker 1: I'm going across the board, still just a flex for 976 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,479 Speaker 1: flex spot for DeAndre and his rookie year. Alright, Matt 977 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:02,760 Speaker 1: is Dion Ray Swift and RB one, RB two flex 978 00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:04,320 Speaker 1: or bench player. I got him as an r B 979 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,360 Speaker 1: two and Brian stole a little bit of my thunder. 980 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 1: I I did have that they have the eighth easiest 981 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 1: schedule against the run. The rest of the way, and 982 00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 1: I did want to note that that Tampa game in 983 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 1: Week sixteen, DeAndre Swift might be a guy who helps 984 00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:19,839 Speaker 1: power you to a playoff run, but he's not going 985 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,480 Speaker 1: to be a guy that you can start against Tampa 986 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 1: in your championship week in week sixteen. So I got 987 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 1: him as an RB two the rest of the way, 988 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:32,439 Speaker 1: but a little nervous about that Week sixteen glaring hole there. 989 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,600 Speaker 1: R B two is pretty good. Yeah, right, all you 990 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,319 Speaker 1: guys are it's all bad from you two? And then 991 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,560 Speaker 1: you call him a right too? I said flex, You 992 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 1: said flex? I didn't think. Answer is RB Two's that 993 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 1: one game? He led the team in plays last week, 994 00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:48,600 Speaker 1: and when he's on the field they use him a lot. 995 00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:51,840 Speaker 1: We've learned that Adrian Peterson only gets used when the 996 00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:55,200 Speaker 1: Lions have the lead. Well often the Lions have the lead, 997 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 1: not often, can just not often. On that, Swift is 998 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,279 Speaker 1: getting work in every situation now. He's catching passes, which 999 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 1: he's been doing all year long. He's getting goal line 1000 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,439 Speaker 1: work as of last week, and he's getting third three 1001 00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 1: down duty now. As for this Adrian Peterson myth back 1002 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 1: to Peterson. His last three weeks, he's averaged three point 1003 00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:18,279 Speaker 1: four yards per carry, three point three yards per carry 1004 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 1: in last week two point seven yards per carry. You know, 1005 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 1: Peterson doesn't bring much to the table. This team is 1006 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: invested in DeAndre Swift and his success and apparently they 1007 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:29,839 Speaker 1: feel good about him. Okay, so week sixteen, maybe I'm 1008 00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:32,799 Speaker 1: benching him. Fine, he got me to the Fantasy Championship. 1009 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 1: You view that as such a negative chart. It was 1010 00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 1: just helping, helping our loyal list. The way you should 1011 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 1: have phrased it was DeAndre Swift is gonna power you 1012 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 1: to the championship game. I didn't. I didn't do it 1013 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 1: with enough gusto because I think that's exactly what I said. 1014 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:52,160 Speaker 1: Check that tape, Brian, Where where's the tape? Kansas City 1015 00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:54,720 Speaker 1: takes on Denver. Let's break down this matchup for a moment. 1016 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 1: First for Patrick Mahomes, Tyree Hill, and Travis Kelsey. Obvious 1017 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:00,719 Speaker 1: a's for all of them. We talk about this pretty 1018 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 1: much every week. They're all very good plays. Denver is 1019 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:07,320 Speaker 1: a great run defense, quietly and a bad past defense, 1020 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 1: which means the path of least resistance for the Chiefs 1021 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:13,320 Speaker 1: runs right through Patrick Mahomes arm So plenty of passing 1022 00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 1: coming Kelsey's my number one ranked tight end this week. 1023 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 1: But hill situation is a little more interesting. He lines 1024 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:20,759 Speaker 1: up in the slot more than six of the time, 1025 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 1: and Hill's going to face Bryce Callahan in the slot, 1026 00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:28,480 Speaker 1: one of the least's hottest cornerbacks. Through five games, Callaghan 1027 00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 1: is not only held opponents scoreless, he's yet to give 1028 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,920 Speaker 1: more than fifty four yards in any game. Reed may 1029 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 1: choose to run Hill on the outside more just to 1030 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,239 Speaker 1: avoid Callahan, which he'll obviously can do. And I think 1031 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 1: that that ploy may work. And that's why Tyreek Hill 1032 00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 1: remains in a grade all right. I told you earlier 1033 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 1: to Marcus Robinson is might take a chance on the receiver. 1034 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:52,239 Speaker 1: I think he's a great sneaky play. This week. Let's 1035 00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:54,480 Speaker 1: go to this running back situation. It's our first game 1036 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 1: when we have to try to decipher what to do 1037 00:55:56,320 --> 00:56:00,120 Speaker 1: with Clyde, Edwards Hilaire and Levy on Bell and they 1038 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 1: both get C grades for Clyde. No team has allowed 1039 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:09,480 Speaker 1: fewer Fantasy points to backs than Denver. They're allowing They've 1040 00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 1: allowed just one score to a running back all year long. 1041 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,800 Speaker 1: They're giving up just three point eight yards per carry. 1042 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,759 Speaker 1: No back his top fifty two yards against Denver since 1043 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 1: week two. You're hoping for I think where you're hoping 1044 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,760 Speaker 1: for Clyde Edwards Hlaire. I think it gets like fifty 1045 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 1: rushing yards, four receptions for thirty yards. You get you 1046 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:32,280 Speaker 1: your gain. That's gonna get you. You know that's gonna 1047 00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 1: like it gets you above tent. That's your C grade 1048 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 1: for Clyde Edwards Hilaire. Now let's go to l V M. Bell. 1049 00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 1: This is a bye week CE for Levy on Bell. 1050 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: If it were not a bye week, I think I 1051 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 1: would probably just be saying, you know what, let's just 1052 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 1: wait a week on Lvan Bell. Let's see how this 1053 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:51,800 Speaker 1: thing shakes out. It's a tough matchup anyway, But because 1054 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 1: it's a bye week, I think a lot of people 1055 00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:54,520 Speaker 1: are gonna need to try to use them, and I'm 1056 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:59,160 Speaker 1: going to give him a C grade. Remember last week 1057 00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: I mentioned Clyde Edwards Hilaire's pro football focus is lowest 1058 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:05,839 Speaker 1: rated running back in pass blocking, So I think Bell 1059 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:09,440 Speaker 1: is going to see some passing game plays immediately beginning 1060 00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:11,960 Speaker 1: this week. I already mentioned Denver was very good against 1061 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:14,920 Speaker 1: the run. They're also terrific against past catching running backs 1062 00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 1: or at lease had been before James James White had 1063 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:21,560 Speaker 1: a big game last week. He caught and I'll remind 1064 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:24,160 Speaker 1: you Levin Bell is really good pass catcher. For all 1065 00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:26,400 Speaker 1: the problems he had with New York, he got sixty 1066 00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 1: six passes last year with the Jets. I think he 1067 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 1: chips in somewhere in the neighborhood of another four Ish 1068 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:36,000 Speaker 1: catches thirty yards, and if there's goal line work to 1069 00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:38,720 Speaker 1: be had, levy on Bell is more likely to get 1070 00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:42,080 Speaker 1: the ball at the stripe. They that doesn't take any 1071 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:45,080 Speaker 1: more than ten days of practice. We're gonna give you 1072 00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:48,240 Speaker 1: the ball behind. You know, Eric Fisher, go score. So 1073 00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 1: a chance for a touchdown for levy On Bell C grade. 1074 00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the Denver side. Only a 1075 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,560 Speaker 1: couple of players to talk about, beginning with the running game. 1076 00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay and Melvin Gordon both getting C grades. Lindsay's 1077 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 1: coming off a one game without Gordon, but this should 1078 00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:04,800 Speaker 1: game I suspect will be roughly evenly split between the 1079 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:06,720 Speaker 1: two of them. The Chiefs have allowed a pair of 1080 00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 1: backs to each put up forty five rushing yards three 1081 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 1: different times this season, so I think that's probably about 1082 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:15,959 Speaker 1: what you're looking at here fifty yards for each guy. Um. 1083 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,680 Speaker 1: After struggling early, the Chiefs run defense has been much 1084 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 1: better lately. They held Josh Jacobs and Devin Singletary the 1085 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,440 Speaker 1: past two weeks to three point three yards per carry. 1086 00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 1: That's it. While with the Chargers, Gordon hammered the Chiefs 1087 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 1: through the air, and the Broncos could try to replicate that. 1088 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:33,920 Speaker 1: And I like Gordon a little bit better because I 1089 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,080 Speaker 1: do he does catch the ball where Lindsay really doesn't 1090 00:58:36,120 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 1: catch much at all. So Gordon, I think, is the 1091 00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 1: better play for PPR leagues. Both guys have a C grade. 1092 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: Also a C grade four Noah Fant expected to return 1093 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:46,920 Speaker 1: to this game. Drew Lock throws to his tight ends 1094 00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:49,440 Speaker 1: a lot, and Fant is the best playmaker he can 1095 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:52,400 Speaker 1: possibly throw too. It's a tricky matchup though. Kansas City 1096 00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 1: is allowed just one tight end to top fifty yards 1097 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 1: against them, but they have allowed at least seven catches 1098 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 1: to the position on three different occasions. Fan gets the 1099 00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 1: C grade here. I'm putting Jerry Judy on the bench. 1100 00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:07,040 Speaker 1: Kansas City surrendered the seventh fewest Fantasy points to receivers, 1101 00:59:07,040 --> 00:59:09,320 Speaker 1: so even a high targets here from Drew Lock isn't 1102 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,920 Speaker 1: likely to bear a lot of fruit here for the rookie. 1103 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,840 Speaker 1: Making matters worse is a matchup against and Judy runs 1104 00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:16,640 Speaker 1: out of the slot a lot. That means he matches 1105 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:19,240 Speaker 1: up against Tyrone Matthew and that is a brutal matchup. 1106 00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,280 Speaker 1: He's been fantastic and he is usually the guy responsible 1107 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 1: for shutting down opposing slot receivers. Did you see the 1108 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 1: weather in Denver? On slow? We're gonna get snow there. 1109 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:34,680 Speaker 1: It's gonna be sixty degrees on Saturday. And that's Colorado 1110 00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:37,840 Speaker 1: in a nutshell right there. There are behind us here 1111 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:40,520 Speaker 1: in Minnesota with the snow that we've already got on 1112 00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,040 Speaker 1: the ground, so it'll be a snow game there. I 1113 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:46,600 Speaker 1: don't think that will affect things a lot, but you 1114 00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 1: can check back on Sunday morning for any late breaking 1115 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 1: changes in the rankings.

You can follow 1121 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,040 Speaker 1: us on Twitter. I'm at Paul Charchi and Brian Johnson 1122 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:36,440 Speaker 1: is at bt x J and Matt Harrison is at 1123 01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:42,120 Speaker 1: Explosive Output. Let's return to the matchups, beginning with Jacksonville 1124 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:47,720 Speaker 1: taking on the Chargers and Brian for Jacksonville. James Robinson 1125 01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:50,040 Speaker 1: was a hot story for about the first two weeks 1126 01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:53,280 Speaker 1: of the season. He has come back to earth big 1127 01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:56,960 Speaker 1: time lately. Do you see a reversal here against the Chargers? Yeah? 1128 01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 1: This is the Jack at Black game. I wonder if 1129 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 1: Jack Black be therela James James Robinson has fallen down 1130 01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 1: to Earth the big time. Like you said, I'm just 1131 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:07,840 Speaker 1: gonna give him a see here. Jay rob hasn't topped 1132 01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:11,360 Speaker 1: fifty rushing yards and three of his last four games, 1133 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 1: but he still gets all the running back touches and 1134 01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:16,840 Speaker 1: averages nearly five catches per game. But again, this is 1135 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:18,520 Speaker 1: not a good matchup. The Chargers have not allowed to 1136 01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 1: running back rushing touchdown all year, and only Ronald Jones 1137 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,320 Speaker 1: has topped seventy rushing yards. But back to the catches. 1138 01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:28,920 Speaker 1: Ronald Jones, Clyde Edwards, Hilaire, Mike Davis and Alvin Kamara 1139 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 1: all posted at least six catches against the Chargers, so 1140 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:34,760 Speaker 1: Robinson has a pretty safe PPR floor, But just to 1141 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:37,280 Speaker 1: see for him in this one. Just to see for 1142 01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:39,720 Speaker 1: d J Chark too. Unfortunately, he could be in for 1143 01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:42,240 Speaker 1: a long afternoon as l A has surrendered just three 1144 01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:46,600 Speaker 1: touchdowns to opposing wide receivers, tied for second fewest. Shark 1145 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 1: had a nice matchup last week against Detroit, but only 1146 01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 1: managed forty five scoreless yards. He did see fourteen targets 1147 01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:55,400 Speaker 1: last week. He should get peppered again. How do you 1148 01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 1: get fourteen targets against the Lions and not turn that 1149 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 1: into a fantasy mind shoes not on his game last week. 1150 01:02:02,680 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 1: The Chargers have allowed the fifth most red zone touches 1151 01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:09,360 Speaker 1: to wide receivers. Those you gotta keep DJ Shark in play. 1152 01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:13,200 Speaker 1: I've got Levicha Channault and Keelan Cole fresh office a 1153 01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:15,280 Speaker 1: hundred forty yard games. Might take a chance on me 1154 01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:18,479 Speaker 1: wide receiver last week on the bench, though, only lead 1155 01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:22,160 Speaker 1: receivers have produced against the Chargers. Tyreek Kill, Mike Evans, 1156 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 1: and Emmanuel Sanders without Michael Thomas all had a hundred 1157 01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:28,880 Speaker 1: plus yards and two of those three scored. I lied 1158 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:31,520 Speaker 1: tyreek Hill had nine yards. He didn't top a hundred, 1159 01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:34,640 Speaker 1: but close enough for me. Gardner Minshew on the bench. 1160 01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:38,520 Speaker 1: Brady and Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes both throw for 1161 01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:42,840 Speaker 1: multiple scores against LACK. Brady had five, but Joe Burrow, 1162 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater Drew Brees combined for just two passing touchdowns 1163 01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 1: against l A. So Minshew on the bench for this one. 1164 01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 1: Over at the Chargers side, Keenan Allen gets to a 1165 01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 1: UH could become a run heavy game for l A. 1166 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,520 Speaker 1: But there's no way you're benching Allen, who has looked 1167 01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 1: great when healthy. He should be close to full health 1168 01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 1: for this matchup. Has a great matchup with hot corner 1169 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:03,720 Speaker 1: Trey Herndon, who has surrendered two scores already this year 1170 01:03:03,720 --> 01:03:05,840 Speaker 1: and owns a hundred and twenty four passer rating in 1171 01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:08,400 Speaker 1: his coverage. So in A for Keenan Allen, b for 1172 01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 1: Mike Williams, he's becoming in if he's healthy, he's in 1173 01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:17,160 Speaker 1: Fantasy player. And although the matchup with Jacksonville isn't great 1174 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:19,960 Speaker 1: on paper, the Jaguars have only allowed five wide receiver 1175 01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:23,840 Speaker 1: touchdowns Brandon Cooks and Kenny Golladay both top two hundred 1176 01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:26,800 Speaker 1: yards running from the boundaries against Jacksonville in recent weeks, 1177 01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:29,400 Speaker 1: So B for Williams and an A for Hunter Henry. 1178 01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,920 Speaker 1: The Jaguars have allowed the fourth most touchdowns to opposing 1179 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:35,240 Speaker 1: tight ends this season, and tight ends have put up 1180 01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 1: at least forty five yards or a score on Jacksonville 1181 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:41,720 Speaker 1: in every game. Uh. Jacksonville could be without versatile linebacker 1182 01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:45,320 Speaker 1: Miles jack again, and Henry has seen at least seven 1183 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 1: targets and three of Justin Herbert's four starts. And lastly, 1184 01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:51,240 Speaker 1: speaking of Justin Herbert, are gonna give him a B? 1185 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:54,160 Speaker 1: Prior to last week's ground attack by Detroit, we all 1186 01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,000 Speaker 1: thought Stafford was gonna rip him up. Through the year 1187 01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:59,080 Speaker 1: the Jaguars. Jaguars were allowing two four passing yards and 1188 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 1: two point to passing touchdowns per game. As I just mentioned, 1189 01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:05,240 Speaker 1: all of Herbert's weapons have plus matchups. There is some 1190 01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:08,240 Speaker 1: risk here. The Jaguars are flying across country playing a 1191 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 1: very good defense this game. Strip could flip run heavy 1192 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 1: pretty quick on Herbert. But I'm still gonna give him 1193 01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 1: a B here. Oh I'm not done yet, Justin Jackson. Sorry, 1194 01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,200 Speaker 1: take a chance of me running back because it's just 1195 01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:21,840 Speaker 1: the Cakes matchup of all time, basically, and you got 1196 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,200 Speaker 1: to give Josh Kelly a C because they're basically gonna 1197 01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:29,360 Speaker 1: got on this one. So I think it's it was 1198 01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:33,840 Speaker 1: thirty three last time, it might be it might be six. 1199 01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:35,720 Speaker 1: It's gonna they're gonna They're gonna run the ball more 1200 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:37,440 Speaker 1: in this one, one would think. So I'll still give 1201 01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 1: Kelly the SEA. I think Kelly does deserve ce. Matt. 1202 01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 1: Let's go to our next matchup, Tampa Bay taking on 1203 01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 1: Las Vegas for Tom Brady. Great game last week, got 1204 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski back involved again. It's got all of his 1205 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,560 Speaker 1: weapons back healthy. What do you think about the passing 1206 01:04:51,600 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: game for the Bucks? Yeah, I gave Brady a B grade, 1207 01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:58,800 Speaker 1: as current New England quarterback Cam Newton was the only 1208 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,600 Speaker 1: quarterback not to le or two seventy yards against the 1209 01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:05,400 Speaker 1: Raiders this year, and plus the raiders twenty six ranked 1210 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:08,440 Speaker 1: passing defense according to Football Outsiders d v O A 1211 01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 1: should be carved up by Brady in this one. However, 1212 01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:16,160 Speaker 1: I'm only going to give C grades to Mike Evans 1213 01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:19,520 Speaker 1: and Chris Godwin, and it's because there's a lot of 1214 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:22,600 Speaker 1: injury stuff still going on with them. Both were limited 1215 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 1: in practice all week, Evans with an ankle, Godwin with 1216 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:29,480 Speaker 1: that linger and hamstring injury. Both are all pro caliber players, 1217 01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,800 Speaker 1: but you have and you're probably gonna start them besides 1218 01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:35,160 Speaker 1: this recommendation, but I will mention this. Robby Anderson and 1219 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:39,800 Speaker 1: Stephen Digs each notched exactly six catches for a hundred 1220 01:05:39,800 --> 01:05:42,439 Speaker 1: and fifteen yards against the Raiders this year. Every other 1221 01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:45,440 Speaker 1: wide receiver has had a bad day against the Raiders 1222 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:48,200 Speaker 1: all year. They are an improved secondary. Yeah, I did 1223 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:50,040 Speaker 1: say I like Brady, but both of these guys should 1224 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:52,560 Speaker 1: see issues with their injuries and neither of them can 1225 01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:54,840 Speaker 1: kind of kick it. So the Raiders have only allowed 1226 01:05:54,840 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 1: four touchdowns to the wide receiver position. Two of them 1227 01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,640 Speaker 1: have come to secondary options on the outside, like Sammy 1228 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 1: Watkins or Gabriel Davis. So maybe Tyler Johnson's your dart 1229 01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 1: throw here and he gets up. Back to back week 1230 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 1: of touchdowns. Oh, Evans and Godwin owners will be furious. 1231 01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:14,760 Speaker 1: They flip out. They have been so frustrated. Let's go 1232 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:18,760 Speaker 1: to the tight end position. Rob Gronkowski scored last week 1233 01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 1: and had seventy eight yards on five catches. The last 1234 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 1: time Rob Gronkowski scored a touchdown in the NFL was 1235 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:29,560 Speaker 1: December nine, two thousand eighteen. So I looked up what 1236 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:33,040 Speaker 1: happened on that date, almost two years ago. I am curious. 1237 01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:38,080 Speaker 1: A beaver is seen in northern Italy on camera, a 1238 01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:42,240 Speaker 1: species that had not been seen in Italy since fourteen 1239 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:46,560 Speaker 1: seventy one. That's a long time. I looked that up 1240 01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 1: at about one in the morning last night, and I 1241 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:52,640 Speaker 1: was laughing, laughing so hard at it, I was crying. 1242 01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:56,160 Speaker 1: I was like a beaver in northern Italy. Great Travis 1243 01:06:56,240 --> 01:06:59,240 Speaker 1: Kelsey did torch this defense for eight catches one oh 1244 01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:01,760 Speaker 1: eight in a score. Uh no other tight end to 1245 01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 1: face the Raiders his top two catches or seventeen yards 1246 01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:06,920 Speaker 1: on the season. So Gronk just gets a C. And 1247 01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:10,840 Speaker 1: then Ronald Jones in the running game he gets an A. Yeah. 1248 01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:13,120 Speaker 1: I know that looks like for Net might plan this one, 1249 01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:15,400 Speaker 1: but Jones has been really good, so Arians can't take 1250 01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:19,280 Speaker 1: him off the field. Right right right. The Raiders are 1251 01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:21,960 Speaker 1: allowing five point two yards per carrying just over a 1252 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,720 Speaker 1: touchdown and a half per game to the running back position. 1253 01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 1: They're also allowing the most running back receiving yards per 1254 01:07:28,040 --> 01:07:31,520 Speaker 1: game at sixty six, so for Nets, probably a dart 1255 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:34,200 Speaker 1: throw if he goes. I think he's a desperation d 1256 01:07:34,400 --> 01:07:36,880 Speaker 1: start if you need one in a bye week. On 1257 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 1: the Raiders side, Josh Jacobs gets a sea. Tampa's run 1258 01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 1: defense is legit. They shut down Aaron Jones last week. 1259 01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 1: They're only allowing forty nine yards per game and only 1260 01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:50,640 Speaker 1: two point eight yards per carry. Plus Trent Brown tested 1261 01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:53,000 Speaker 1: positive for COVID this week and the rest of the 1262 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:55,880 Speaker 1: offensive line has been in quarantine. Now we think the 1263 01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:58,400 Speaker 1: rest of the line is gonna play, but that certainly 1264 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:01,440 Speaker 1: affects Josh Jacobs, and that certainly affects Derek Carr, who 1265 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 1: I'm only giving a c He's fifth in the league 1266 01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:07,160 Speaker 1: in passing yards and has multiple scores thrown in four 1267 01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:10,200 Speaker 1: straight games against some quality defensive sides in New Orleans, 1268 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:13,520 Speaker 1: New England, Buffalo, in Kansas City. But Tampa's allowing just 1269 01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:16,120 Speaker 1: under two and or fifty yards per game to a 1270 01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 1: per game to the quarterback position, uh and and their 1271 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:22,000 Speaker 1: run defenses amongst amongst the best in the league. So 1272 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,880 Speaker 1: I think that he's still starting grade because they're gonna 1273 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:26,800 Speaker 1: have to move the football somehow, and it's gonna be 1274 01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:30,400 Speaker 1: car and then Henry Ruggs, I'm giving him a C grade. 1275 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:33,439 Speaker 1: And this is almost stupid here. Tampa's pretty good against 1276 01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:37,280 Speaker 1: the wide receiver position except for downfield burners. Robby Anderson 1277 01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:39,000 Speaker 1: had nine for one on nine, but that's not what 1278 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:41,920 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. I'm talking about Jalen Guiton, who had 1279 01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:45,439 Speaker 1: one catch for seventy two yards in the score, Tyrone Johnson, 1280 01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:47,599 Speaker 1: who had one catch for fifty three yards in the score. 1281 01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:51,000 Speaker 1: And since Henry Ruggs averages two catches per game and 1282 01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:54,640 Speaker 1: they're usually like fifty yards, that's Henry Ruggs in a 1283 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,280 Speaker 1: weird long bomb. Darren Waller he gets a be though. 1284 01:08:57,439 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 1: Whiller's averaging seven receptions per game, and he's certainly Derek 1285 01:09:01,040 --> 01:09:03,840 Speaker 1: Carrs will be. The Bucks have been pretty stout against 1286 01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:05,920 Speaker 1: the tight end, although Jared Cook did beat them for 1287 01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 1: five and eight in the first week and Noah Fant 1288 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:11,680 Speaker 1: had five catches for forty six six for seventy and 1289 01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:13,920 Speaker 1: a score seems likely for Waller. That's why he gets 1290 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,080 Speaker 1: to be. When we come back, we will jump into 1291 01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:20,840 Speaker 1: the time machine for premature speculation. We will tell you 1292 01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:24,320 Speaker 1: three players that you will want to pick up.

Brian 1308 01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:45,559 Speaker 1: Johnson all right, I'm gonna have to give you guys 1309 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 1: a jit. I'm sorry, but Brashad Periam is my premature speculation. 1310 01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:51,400 Speaker 1: A very slow start of the year, basically got hurt 1311 01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:54,160 Speaker 1: in the middle of the second game of this season. 1312 01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:56,880 Speaker 1: Made his return last week though against the Dolphins, saw 1313 01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:59,719 Speaker 1: eight targets, caught four of them for sixty two yards 1314 01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:01,880 Speaker 1: and story short, the Jets are gonna be playing from 1315 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,719 Speaker 1: behind by the middle of the national anthem every week. 1316 01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:07,719 Speaker 1: Brashad Perriman was brought in to be their top boundary receiver. 1317 01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:10,880 Speaker 1: Mentioned earlier in the show. Jamison Crowder nursing a groin 1318 01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:15,000 Speaker 1: injury right now, hopefully Sam Donald makes his return. So 1319 01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:17,559 Speaker 1: I'm going with Brashad Perriman, a guy I would rather 1320 01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:21,280 Speaker 1: add over Antonio Brown right now. All right, it's it's 1321 01:11:21,320 --> 01:11:23,759 Speaker 1: come to that, and let me just throw Denzel Mims. 1322 01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:26,479 Speaker 1: Not in redraft, but he's a like basically the the 1323 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:29,280 Speaker 1: won't forgotten rookie wide receiver right now. Yeah, let's say 1324 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:34,280 Speaker 1: you're in a dynasty, you know, for next year, Trevor 1325 01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:37,200 Speaker 1: Lawrence to Denzel Mims. I don't know if that's gonna happen. 1326 01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 1: Why not Trevor Lawrence Lawrence himself out of that, out 1327 01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:45,799 Speaker 1: of that situation the reverse ELI out of New Jersey. 1328 01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:49,280 Speaker 1: But look, okay, wait, but here is going to be gone. 1329 01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 1: Let's assume they brought in some form of competent coaching, 1330 01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:54,680 Speaker 1: and then I think that will be enough to get 1331 01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:56,880 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence to New York. If you're if you've got 1332 01:11:56,920 --> 01:12:02,639 Speaker 1: a dead dynasty team right now and we'll get nothing. Okay, Uh, 1333 01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:06,439 Speaker 1: you're premature speculation. Player Matt James Conner missed six games 1334 01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:09,320 Speaker 1: due to injury last year, three games the year before. 1335 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:14,479 Speaker 1: He's the wobbliest game injury stricken star the year before that. 1336 01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:17,160 Speaker 1: He's never played in a Week seven in his career. 1337 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:21,400 Speaker 1: He's never played in a Week fourteen either, So you 1338 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 1: better pick up Benny Snell, who, like I mentioned before, 1339 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,000 Speaker 1: is the next guy in line. But I also do 1340 01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:30,960 Speaker 1: want to mention that Anthony McFarland's kind of looming here. 1341 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:34,160 Speaker 1: Benny Snell's averaging three point nine yards per carry on 1342 01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:36,800 Speaker 1: the season and two yards per carry since the opening Yeah, 1343 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:39,320 Speaker 1: and he did have a great opening day game, but 1344 01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:43,639 Speaker 1: McFarland's averaging four point three over the season, so kind 1345 01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:45,400 Speaker 1: of a bonus. If you're in a really deep league 1346 01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:47,360 Speaker 1: and Anthony McFarland's out there, you might want to pick 1347 01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:50,160 Speaker 1: him up. But Benny Snell is definitely the handcuff you 1348 01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:52,880 Speaker 1: want to get or steal from somebody else who owns 1349 01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:57,240 Speaker 1: James Conner. Baffling decision by the Miami Dolphins to decide 1350 01:12:57,280 --> 01:13:01,840 Speaker 1: to change quarterbacks after They had just thoroughly beaten two 1351 01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:05,040 Speaker 1: straight teams with Ryan Fitzpatrick and are one game out 1352 01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,120 Speaker 1: of a playoff spot and one game out of first 1353 01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:09,600 Speaker 1: place in their division. Apparently they don't know what to 1354 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:11,760 Speaker 1: do with that level of success and how to handle it, 1355 01:13:11,840 --> 01:13:14,479 Speaker 1: so they decide to bench Ryan Fitzpatrick. You know what 1356 01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 1: time it is Church, It's two a time. No, it's 1357 01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 1: it's two o'clock to o'clock. It's two. That is two o'clock. 1358 01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:24,599 Speaker 1: It's always two o'clock in Miami. Um, here's the funny thing. 1359 01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:26,240 Speaker 1: And you because if you're in a deep league, go 1360 01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:28,960 Speaker 1: pick up two. A fine, but here's the real angle. 1361 01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:36,360 Speaker 1: Everybody's dropping Ryan Fitzpatrick. It is go get Stu Beard. 1362 01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:39,519 Speaker 1: Everybody's dropping him. Now here's two different ways he can 1363 01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:42,160 Speaker 1: help you. Number one two is not ready for the job. 1364 01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:44,559 Speaker 1: They lose a couple of games with the first year 1365 01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:47,519 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback. They could easily go right back to Stu 1366 01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 1: Beard and he's a top ten fantasy quarterback, or a 1367 01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:55,120 Speaker 1: team like the Dallas Cowboys said, you know what, this 1368 01:13:55,240 --> 01:13:58,160 Speaker 1: division is right for the taken. We're not getting on 1369 01:13:58,320 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: at Andy Dalton, and they make a tray to go 1370 01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:04,200 Speaker 1: get Ryan Fitzpatrick. He would with Ryan Fitzpatrick and the 1371 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:06,120 Speaker 1: weapons in Dallas, he'd go right back to be the 1372 01:14:06,200 --> 01:14:09,559 Speaker 1: top tend quarterback. Dallas did inquire the other day about 1373 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 1: the Lions David Block as a backup quarterback. So they're 1374 01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:17,360 Speaker 1: actively shopping for a backup quarterback right now, you know, 1375 01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:21,000 Speaker 1: and Miami is always looking for draft picks. There you go, 1376 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:24,320 Speaker 1: there's your scenario, two different ways. Ryan Fitzpatrick can help 1377 01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:28,080 Speaker 1: you in about two weeks. Two weeks. Two a week, 1378 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:30,600 Speaker 1: that's right, two a week's very nice, all right. So 1379 01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:35,720 Speaker 1: there's three players upon which you can speculate prematurely. Let's 1380 01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,960 Speaker 1: talk about Chicago taking on the Rams. That is the 1381 01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,200 Speaker 1: Monday night game. Uh handful of angles here. David Montgomery 1382 01:14:42,320 --> 01:14:45,599 Speaker 1: failed us in a far better opportunity last week against 1383 01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:50,759 Speaker 1: Carolina the Rams. The Rams gave up big games early 1384 01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:53,400 Speaker 1: in the season to Ezekiel Elliott and Miles Sanders, but 1385 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:56,320 Speaker 1: since then, over the last four games, they've only allowed 1386 01:14:56,360 --> 01:14:59,120 Speaker 1: a single back to top sixty five rushing yards while 1387 01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:01,960 Speaker 1: shutting backs all together out of the end zone. Montgomery 1388 01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:04,559 Speaker 1: struggled mightily against the Rams last year when they played, 1389 01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:08,120 Speaker 1: putting up thirty one rushing yards on four team carries. 1390 01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:11,400 Speaker 1: So just to CE grade on David Montgomery here. As 1391 01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:14,440 Speaker 1: for the passing game, only a C grade on Allen Robinson, 1392 01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:17,759 Speaker 1: Who's great. He leads the league in targets, he's second 1393 01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:20,799 Speaker 1: in red zone targets. But he's gonna get Jalen Ramsey 1394 01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:23,160 Speaker 1: for this game, who will shadow him throughout? Ramsey is 1395 01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:26,479 Speaker 1: allowing two catches per game, his former teammate, by the way, 1396 01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:28,840 Speaker 1: he knows him well. It's a good point. And as 1397 01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:31,759 Speaker 1: a team, the Rams have surrendered just three wide receiver 1398 01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:34,679 Speaker 1: touchdowns all year. So just the C grade on Allen 1399 01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:37,160 Speaker 1: Robinson a rare C grade for a player that good. 1400 01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:39,559 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham gets a C grade and it's a little 1401 01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:41,559 Speaker 1: bit of a bye week C grade. The Rams are 1402 01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:45,599 Speaker 1: tied for the eighth most touchdowns allowed to opposing tight 1403 01:15:45,680 --> 01:15:48,679 Speaker 1: ends with with four, and linebacker Kenny Young is great 1404 01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:52,120 Speaker 1: at his pro football focus his second worst tight end defender, 1405 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,640 Speaker 1: so I like that matchup. Graham's got six inches on 1406 01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:59,240 Speaker 1: Kenny Young, which bodes well for the touchdown dependent tight end. 1407 01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:01,400 Speaker 1: You're really as Jimmy Graham, You're never looking. You're never 1408 01:16:01,400 --> 01:16:03,760 Speaker 1: going to get eight catches for eighty yards, but you're 1409 01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:05,720 Speaker 1: hoping you get the touch down. It could happen here. 1410 01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:10,040 Speaker 1: Let's go over to the ram side, much more interesting, honestly, 1411 01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:14,639 Speaker 1: Starting with the running game, Darryl Henderson feels fairly safe. 1412 01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:20,040 Speaker 1: Cam Akers had one snap last week. That's it one. 1413 01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:24,720 Speaker 1: So it seems seems like Darryl Henderson has secured the 1414 01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:27,840 Speaker 1: lead role and only needs to worry about Malcolm Brown 1415 01:16:27,920 --> 01:16:33,760 Speaker 1: siphoning off and before you feel the most safe. That's 1416 01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:38,519 Speaker 1: when least it's it's it's the There is no safety 1417 01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:40,880 Speaker 1: with the Rams, but this feels like it should be. 1418 01:16:41,200 --> 01:16:43,519 Speaker 1: The Bears are far easier to run upon than pass 1419 01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:46,160 Speaker 1: and Sean McVeigh should give the running game plenty of 1420 01:16:46,200 --> 01:16:49,320 Speaker 1: attention here. The Bears are seeing twenty seven rushes per 1421 01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:52,800 Speaker 1: game and they're allowing one six total yards per game 1422 01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:56,280 Speaker 1: to the position. Henderson should be okay here. I've got 1423 01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:59,040 Speaker 1: to be great on him. Cam Akers times coming, but 1424 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:04,280 Speaker 1: with only one snap last week, it would be very bizarre, 1425 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,400 Speaker 1: but not out of the realm of possibility to see 1426 01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:09,200 Speaker 1: him get a meaningful number of carries here. All right, 1427 01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:11,280 Speaker 1: let's go to uh let's go to the passing game. 1428 01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:14,360 Speaker 1: Jared Goffs on the bench. No opposing quarterback has thrown 1429 01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:17,080 Speaker 1: more than one touchdown against Chicago, and they've only given 1430 01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:20,120 Speaker 1: up three passing scores all year, despite the fact that 1431 01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:22,599 Speaker 1: they faced Tom Brady, Matt Ryan, and Matthew Stafford, who 1432 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:27,920 Speaker 1: are are are competent quarterbacks. His two main receivers, Robert 1433 01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:30,360 Speaker 1: Woods Cooper Cup, have got difficult matchups and let's go 1434 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:32,680 Speaker 1: to them right now. With just C grades for both 1435 01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:35,200 Speaker 1: of those guys, the Bears have allowed just one wide 1436 01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:39,000 Speaker 1: receiver touchdown. Woods has a difficult one on one matchup 1437 01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:42,360 Speaker 1: with elite cornerback Kyle Fuller. Fuller is allowing just forty 1438 01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:44,640 Speaker 1: percent of the balls thrown his way to be completed 1439 01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:47,679 Speaker 1: and a minuscule passer rating of sixty on balls thrown 1440 01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 1: into his coverage. It's a tough matchup for Robert Woods. 1441 01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:53,519 Speaker 1: Suggest the C grade Cooper Cup will face Buster Screen 1442 01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:55,400 Speaker 1: in the slot, and we've had a lot of fun 1443 01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:58,840 Speaker 1: at Busters Screen expense over the years, but he's gonna 1444 01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:02,040 Speaker 1: be the story of a another jet who becomes competent 1445 01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:04,360 Speaker 1: as soon as he leaves New York. He was decent 1446 01:18:04,439 --> 01:18:07,960 Speaker 1: last year and so far this year, nobody has scored 1447 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:11,519 Speaker 1: on Buster Screen and He's allowing just forty yards in 1448 01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 1: his coverage. The best game any slot receivers posted against 1449 01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:17,320 Speaker 1: Chicago was way back in the opener when Danny Amndola 1450 01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:20,519 Speaker 1: had a scoreless eighty one yard game from the slot 1451 01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:23,800 Speaker 1: against Chicago. And I guess that's ther upside for Cooper Cup. 1452 01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:27,040 Speaker 1: So just the C grade there, and Tyler Higby's on 1453 01:18:27,080 --> 01:18:30,800 Speaker 1: the bench. Other than his Week two explosion, Higgby's average 1454 01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:35,240 Speaker 1: game two catches for thirty three scoreless yards total disaster. 1455 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:39,280 Speaker 1: The Bears have been somewhat vulnerable to tight ends. Three 1456 01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:42,200 Speaker 1: of Chicago's four passing touchdowns allowed have gone to tight ends, 1457 01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 1: and four tight ends have top forty four yards. Higgby 1458 01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:48,080 Speaker 1: is nothing but a desperation dart throw, and I don't 1459 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:51,360 Speaker 1: recommend you use him. All right, let's go to our 1460 01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:55,160 Speaker 1: final matchup of this show. It's Seattle taking on Arizona 1461 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:58,200 Speaker 1: in what figures to be a massive shootout. I believe 1462 01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:01,040 Speaker 1: the over under in this game is fifth the eight 1463 01:19:01,680 --> 01:19:05,439 Speaker 1: fifty seven. It's the highest overunder of the week. Brian, Yeah, 1464 01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:07,519 Speaker 1: it should be a point orgy, but really, not a 1465 01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:10,840 Speaker 1: ton of names to mention on both sides here. I 1466 01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:14,280 Speaker 1: we'll start with Seattle. Chris Carson gets an A Arizona 1467 01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:17,400 Speaker 1: allowing a hundred and fifty plus combo yards to opposing 1468 01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:20,599 Speaker 1: running backs. Carson had a hundred and forty combo yards 1469 01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 1: when these teams first met last year, only saw nine 1470 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:26,720 Speaker 1: touches in the second meeting did total sixty yards. So 1471 01:19:26,760 --> 01:19:29,040 Speaker 1: he does have a good, uh you know, yards per 1472 01:19:29,080 --> 01:19:32,400 Speaker 1: touch history against Arizona and that should continue here. He 1473 01:19:32,439 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 1: gets an A, as does DK Metcalf, who if you're 1474 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:41,120 Speaker 1: doing a dynasty startup right now, is if the number 1475 01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:44,680 Speaker 1: the number one receiver, probably first, first player, who knows, 1476 01:19:44,920 --> 01:19:47,479 Speaker 1: But anyway, metcalfe gonna give him an A. He has 1477 01:19:47,520 --> 01:19:50,599 Speaker 1: topped ninety yards and scored at least once in four 1478 01:19:50,600 --> 01:19:53,479 Speaker 1: of five games. He did fail to score in one game, 1479 01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:56,000 Speaker 1: still had four catches for a hundred and six yards. 1480 01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:57,599 Speaker 1: That might have been the game he was leon leaded 1481 01:19:57,640 --> 01:20:02,560 Speaker 1: to just an unreal start online game for DK. Metcalf 1482 01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:06,400 Speaker 1: is also second among receivers and end zone targets. Arizona 1483 01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:09,639 Speaker 1: has allowed four wide receiver touchdowns over their last four games. 1484 01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 1: That adds up nicely, and during that same four game span, 1485 01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:15,920 Speaker 1: opposing wide receivers are averaging a hardy eight teen catches 1486 01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:19,040 Speaker 1: and two twenty eight yards as a whole, so that 1487 01:20:19,160 --> 01:20:22,120 Speaker 1: certainly puts Tyler Lockett in play with a solid be 1488 01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:25,160 Speaker 1: Lockett has been quiet over the last two games totally, 1489 01:20:25,160 --> 01:20:28,479 Speaker 1: just six catches for eighty three scoreless yards, and it's 1490 01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:31,639 Speaker 1: worth noting lock It only had five catches for sixty 1491 01:20:31,680 --> 01:20:35,479 Speaker 1: three scoreless yards across the two meetings with Arizona last season, 1492 01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:38,519 Speaker 1: but he was dinged up last year that Seahawks offense 1493 01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:40,760 Speaker 1: was not clicking as it is right now, and this 1494 01:20:40,840 --> 01:20:42,800 Speaker 1: is a great matchup, So a safe B for lock 1495 01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:46,519 Speaker 1: It and of course an A for Russell Wilson. Sure 1496 01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:49,520 Speaker 1: no opposing quarterback has thrown for more than two touchdowns 1497 01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:54,160 Speaker 1: or hit three passing yards against Arizona. That's understandable when 1498 01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:57,439 Speaker 1: the opposition has been Jimmy Garoppolo, Dwayne Haskins, Matt Stafford, 1499 01:20:57,479 --> 01:21:02,240 Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater, Joe Flacco and Andy Dallen. Jimmy G. Stafford 1500 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:05,040 Speaker 1: and Teddy the truly competent quarterbacks in that list all 1501 01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:08,240 Speaker 1: had at least two sixty passing yards and two touchdowns, 1502 01:21:08,280 --> 01:21:11,160 Speaker 1: So that's easily a safe floor for Russell Wilson. Even 1503 01:21:11,200 --> 01:21:13,760 Speaker 1: though I was shocked to see this. Over his last 1504 01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:17,519 Speaker 1: four games against Arizona, here are Russell Wilson's passing totals UH. 1505 01:21:17,560 --> 01:21:22,160 Speaker 1: Touchdown passing totals one, one, one zero. He'll probably have 1506 01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:24,800 Speaker 1: more than all of those. Fine in this game. You 1507 01:21:24,840 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 1: should hopefully at least have three over to the Arizona side. 1508 01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:31,760 Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake showing signs of life. Only a C for 1509 01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:34,880 Speaker 1: him in this one. Though opponents are running the ball 1510 01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:37,439 Speaker 1: thirty five percent of the time against Seattle. That's it. 1511 01:21:37,840 --> 01:21:41,240 Speaker 1: It's just too easy to pass. They're funneling the opposition 1512 01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:45,400 Speaker 1: to the pass. Seahawks allowing the fourth fewest rushing attempts 1513 01:21:45,560 --> 01:21:48,479 Speaker 1: the third fewest rushing yards per game to opposing running back. 1514 01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:51,360 Speaker 1: So they did lose Jadeveon Clowney, which bodes well for 1515 01:21:51,439 --> 01:21:54,200 Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake. But I'm not thoroughly convinced Drake is out 1516 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:56,360 Speaker 1: of the woods. So just to see for him, uh, 1517 01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:59,679 Speaker 1: not a C for DeAndre Hopkins. He gets the fantasy 1518 01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:03,439 Speaker 1: found zd A. Hopkins is one of just five wide 1519 01:22:03,439 --> 01:22:06,880 Speaker 1: receivers to see at least of his team's targets in 1520 01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:10,439 Speaker 1: every game. Seattle is allowing more than twenty one catches, 1521 01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:14,520 Speaker 1: two yards and one whole touchdown per game to opposing 1522 01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:19,080 Speaker 1: wide receivers. Stop at twenty one catches per game allowed 1523 01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:23,719 Speaker 1: to the wide receiver position yards. It's staggering, how bad 1524 01:22:24,400 --> 01:22:28,479 Speaker 1: the Saints who would give up eight eight? Right? Calvin Ridley, 1525 01:22:28,680 --> 01:22:33,920 Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson, Adam Feeling each scored twice against Seattle, and 1526 01:22:33,920 --> 01:22:36,200 Speaker 1: if one wide out is going to accomplish that feat 1527 01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:39,280 Speaker 1: for Arizona, it's probably going to be Hopkins, but it 1528 01:22:39,320 --> 01:22:42,720 Speaker 1: could be Christian Kirk. Yes, the last week, you know 1529 01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:47,200 Speaker 1: what was one of them technically a receiving to but 1530 01:22:47,240 --> 01:22:48,599 Speaker 1: I think that still might have been called the forward 1531 01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:52,799 Speaker 1: pass anyway. B for Kirk hasn't scored and has failed 1532 01:22:52,840 --> 01:22:55,640 Speaker 1: to top four catches or forty yards in each of 1533 01:22:55,680 --> 01:22:58,519 Speaker 1: his three games against the Seahawks during his career, but 1534 01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:02,240 Speaker 1: again care that see the Seattle defenses on a downtrodden 1535 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:05,439 Speaker 1: as ever, Arizona's offense is on another level. Right now. 1536 01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:08,920 Speaker 1: Kirk has scored at least once indoor top top seventy 1537 01:23:08,960 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 1: five yards in three straight games. So B for Kirk, 1538 01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:14,840 Speaker 1: I'm tempted to start Larry Fitzgerald and what will be 1539 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:19,000 Speaker 1: his thirty four game against San Francisco forty Niners, not 1540 01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:22,000 Speaker 1: the night of Seattle Seahawks. I'm sorry the Seahawks, right uh. 1541 01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:24,479 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald though, and Andy Isabelle, I gotta put him on 1542 01:23:24,479 --> 01:23:27,519 Speaker 1: the bench here. Kyler Murray, though, lastly, he gets in 1543 01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:30,799 Speaker 1: a Seattle allowing an astounding three and seventy seven passing 1544 01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:33,280 Speaker 1: yards per game, by far the worst in the league. 1545 01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:37,679 Speaker 1: Four or five posing quarterbacks have scored multiple touchdowns against Seattle, 1546 01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:42,080 Speaker 1: who have also allowed three quarterback rushing touchdowns. And Kyler 1547 01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:45,479 Speaker 1: Murray kind of good at being a rushing quarterback. He's 1548 01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:47,040 Speaker 1: really good at being a rushing quarterback. One of the 1549 01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:49,679 Speaker 1: only one running back has more rushing touchdowns than Kyler 1550 01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:55,479 Speaker 1: Murray does. Chase Claypool. Just Claypool's like running back thirty 1551 01:23:55,760 --> 01:24:00,120 Speaker 1: season right now rushing. Actually, I resend my prem at 1552 01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:03,080 Speaker 1: your speculation. Get Chase Claypool the next running back on 1553 01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:06,800 Speaker 1: the area. You mentioned DK Metcalf, And you know, if 1554 01:24:06,800 --> 01:24:09,760 Speaker 1: you were draft if you were drafting right now and 1555 01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:13,599 Speaker 1: a brand new league at this moment, DK Metcalf would 1556 01:24:13,600 --> 01:24:15,720 Speaker 1: be the would probably the first receiver off the board. Well, 1557 01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:19,400 Speaker 1: in Guillotine League, He's going as wide receiver three right now, 1558 01:24:19,479 --> 01:24:23,240 Speaker 1: after Hopkins and Adams, but this is redraft. But yeah, 1559 01:24:23,280 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 1: Metcalf even led, He's right. I think he would be 1560 01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:28,320 Speaker 1: my number one because his bye week is gone, and 1561 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:31,120 Speaker 1: bye weeks are so pivotal with Guillotine league's good point. 1562 01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:35,559 Speaker 1: And then in dynasty first overall player taken to me 1563 01:24:35,680 --> 01:24:38,320 Speaker 1: would be DK Metcalf. If I were starting a brand 1564 01:24:38,400 --> 01:24:41,160 Speaker 1: new dynasty league, it's super flex though, it's a quarterback. 1565 01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:45,960 Speaker 1: If it's super flex, it's a quarterback. If it's probably yes, 1566 01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:50,360 Speaker 1: it's a quarterback suplex. The reason is for running backs 1567 01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:52,200 Speaker 1: come and go right, your dynasty league gotta live with 1568 01:24:52,240 --> 01:24:56,000 Speaker 1: your dynasty league team for decades. Potentially, running backs come 1569 01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:59,439 Speaker 1: and go. Great receivers stay good when they're married to 1570 01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:02,280 Speaker 1: good quarter acts, they stay good for a decade. And 1571 01:25:02,280 --> 01:25:04,240 Speaker 1: that's what D K mccaffe is looking at. I think 1572 01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:06,759 Speaker 1: you'd be the first player I would take in a 1573 01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:13,559 Speaker 1: redraft league, Um, Matt, Yeah. On Thursday, Devanta semen As 1574 01:25:13,600 --> 01:25:16,040 Speaker 1: we now like to go whoa, whoa because of his 1575 01:25:16,240 --> 01:25:20,120 Speaker 1: many C grades. Oh yeah, he forgot you C grades 1576 01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:22,200 Speaker 1: too good for him. He had a he had a 1577 01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:24,759 Speaker 1: was an eight yard game. I think it was eight yards. 1578 01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:27,439 Speaker 1: Three carries for eight yards. He did get nicked up 1579 01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:30,400 Speaker 1: in this game, and that's part of it. Okay, So 1580 01:25:30,840 --> 01:25:36,280 Speaker 1: are we sabotage dropping Devanta Semen. I don't like that. 1581 01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:40,760 Speaker 1: You don't say c Man Semen because he's Freeman. He's 1582 01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:46,720 Speaker 1: not Freeman, he's DeVante Freeman. Okay. Um I did give 1583 01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:49,839 Speaker 1: him a a C grade on the Thursday night preview 1584 01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,840 Speaker 1: on the Shock Fantasy podcast. They do at FFW style. Well, 1585 01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 1: he would have got it. He would have got that 1586 01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:57,720 Speaker 1: short touchdown plunge. Yeah, that's true. Um. The the thing 1587 01:25:57,760 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 1: with him is he's had nineteen touches in each of 1588 01:26:01,320 --> 01:26:04,960 Speaker 1: the prior to games, and if he's healthy, that kind 1589 01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:08,280 Speaker 1: of workload is something that you can't quite drop because 1590 01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:12,280 Speaker 1: nineteen touches is really a lot, and even behind a 1591 01:26:12,320 --> 01:26:16,479 Speaker 1: bad line, he's not quite droppable. I don't think it's 1592 01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:18,519 Speaker 1: a sabotage either, because I don't know how many people 1593 01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:21,240 Speaker 1: are clamoring to go pick him up. But you're looking 1594 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:25,080 Speaker 1: at sixty yards and a chance of a score in 1595 01:26:25,160 --> 01:26:27,240 Speaker 1: any game, So it's not a guy that you want 1596 01:26:27,240 --> 01:26:30,240 Speaker 1: to start. But if you get really desperate, he's gonna 1597 01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:34,519 Speaker 1: be DeVante demon. I think the rest of the year demon. 1598 01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:39,120 Speaker 1: Uh Brian Carson Wentz on Thursday Night put up another 1599 01:26:39,160 --> 01:26:42,040 Speaker 1: really in a series almost every week, Carson Wentz, despite 1600 01:26:42,040 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 1: all the problems around him offensive line and shambles wide 1601 01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:47,879 Speaker 1: receivers going in and out of the line of constantly 1602 01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:51,880 Speaker 1: heard a bunch of no name receiving no end tight ends. Somehow, 1603 01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:56,439 Speaker 1: he just keeps cobbling together fantasy relevant games. What are 1604 01:26:56,479 --> 01:26:59,840 Speaker 1: your prospects for Carson Wentz going forward? Yeah, he turned 1605 01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:04,320 Speaker 1: Richard Rodgers Dick rod Back into a star for f sake. 1606 01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:07,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, Wentz, like you said, nothing to work with. 1607 01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:10,880 Speaker 1: But you know what, Zach Ertz probably gonna come back, 1608 01:27:11,400 --> 01:27:15,160 Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard is gonna come back to Sean Jackson, probably 1609 01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:18,880 Speaker 1: not gonna go back, Jalen reagor no, he's coming back 1610 01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:25,040 Speaker 1: in mid November. Eagles really should have drafted Justin Jefferson Reager. 1611 01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:28,880 Speaker 1: But anyway, that that's in the past. But uh, I 1612 01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:31,559 Speaker 1: am buying into wins. He looks great with uh he 1613 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:34,120 Speaker 1: looks pretty good with nothing to work with around him, 1614 01:27:34,120 --> 01:27:37,280 Speaker 1: and that the schedule is just so cake moving forward. 1615 01:27:37,320 --> 01:27:40,280 Speaker 1: He's he's there in the NFC East, the Giants again, 1616 01:27:40,640 --> 01:27:44,280 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, the Browns on Tap, the Seahawks who we 1617 01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:46,880 Speaker 1: just mentioned. These are all the next four weeks. These 1618 01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:51,040 Speaker 1: are like A plus matchups. I can give a matchup 1619 01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:53,680 Speaker 1: at plus, can't I it's not a player, yes, not 1620 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:56,960 Speaker 1: a plus matchup. So I am buying into Carson Wentz. 1621 01:27:57,000 --> 01:28:00,120 Speaker 1: He's a guy that probably should you know, you stir 1622 01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:02,400 Speaker 1: up some top twelve quarterbacks on a weekly basis. In 1623 01:28:02,479 --> 01:28:05,679 Speaker 1: terms of starting him over, I don't know. He's probably 1624 01:28:05,720 --> 01:28:09,200 Speaker 1: Mark Jackson one week, maybe probably not Lamar Jackson, but well, 1625 01:28:09,240 --> 01:28:10,559 Speaker 1: you know what I'm getting at. And he's in the 1626 01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:13,599 Speaker 1: same spot right now where he was last year, where 1627 01:28:13,640 --> 01:28:18,599 Speaker 1: he basically willed the Eagles into a playoff spot by 1628 01:28:18,720 --> 01:28:22,760 Speaker 1: just throwing the ball. He threw like unconscious last year 1629 01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:26,519 Speaker 1: over forty passing attempts in each of his last seven games. 1630 01:28:26,800 --> 01:28:30,160 Speaker 1: He's had over forty passing attempts in five of seven 1631 01:28:30,200 --> 01:28:33,720 Speaker 1: games this year, and prior to Week eleven last year 1632 01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:37,960 Speaker 1: he had too starts with forty passing attempts. He throws 1633 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:41,400 Speaker 1: all the time, and by the way, five rushing touchdowns 1634 01:28:41,520 --> 01:28:44,920 Speaker 1: that in his last six games. Carson Wentz because he's 1635 01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:47,479 Speaker 1: he's a mobile guy too. Now you got you gotta 1636 01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:49,960 Speaker 1: plug your nose in some of the bad Carson Wentz 1637 01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:52,680 Speaker 1: plays because they're they're handful of plays every game where 1638 01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:56,639 Speaker 1: he looks brutal, you know a little he the will 1639 01:28:56,720 --> 01:29:01,040 Speaker 1: to win is obvious and he is finding ways to 1640 01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:05,559 Speaker 1: get meaningful box scores for his fantasy owners. Carson Wentz 1641 01:29:05,560 --> 01:29:08,400 Speaker 1: way underrated and that that guy wants to win and 1642 01:29:08,439 --> 01:29:12,280 Speaker 1: I love it. Uh, great job today, guys.
