Here's your host. Welcome to another 0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:27.080 edition of Fantasy Football Weekly. I am Paul Charchi and 0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:31.080 my co host today are Brian Johnson and Matt Harrison. Hello, guys, 0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:34.640 Oh my god, we're back again. We're back again. They 0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:37.120 can't break us up. Scott Fish trying to break us up. 0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:40.520 Can't happen. Nope, Maybe we'll get Scott next week. Lots 0:00:40.560 --> 0:00:42.360 to get you over the course of the show, including 0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:44.800 three tough questions you can play along, trying to go 0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:48.000 three and O premature speculation, where we give you three 0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:51.800 players that you will want to have next week, so 0:00:51.920 --> 0:00:55.880 you go get them. This week, we'll have nine players 0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:59.480 upon whom you can take a chance, players that are available. 0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:02.200 In many players you don't normally start, but you can 0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:05.080 this week for a variety of reasons. And I have 0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:08.200 been dreadful with my take a chance on me players 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:11.280 this year. I have vowed to do so much better 0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:15.680 this week, in part because at least going back lowering 0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:19.400 I'm lowering the bar a little bit on what constitutes 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:21.560 and take a chance on me. Player. I've been up 0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:25.720 the sack you have. You've been red hot that peacock ready, 0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:28.839 I will. I don't know how you ready a peacock exactly. 0:01:29.400 --> 0:01:33.759 I don't think I wanted to you feed it some seed. 0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:43.720 I think, just stop. Yeah, I don't you know. We're 0:01:43.720 --> 0:01:47.680 prepping the peacock. We will break down every NFL game 0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:52.200 fantasy style. We begin with San Francisco taking on New England. 0:01:52.520 --> 0:01:56.000 Brian two weeks ago, I was saying, oh, go get 0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:58.280 Jimmy Garoppolo. He's coming back, and then he was so 0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.240 bad he got benched, and then I spent a week 0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.080 regretting the fact that I told people to get Jimmy Garoppolo. 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.280 And then last week he goes out and throws three 0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.520 touchdowns in the first half, just proving you can't win. Yeah. 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:10.560 I was gonna close with the Garoppolo on the San 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:12.840 Francisco side, but we'll start there. He's on the bench. 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:15.800 Sadly in the revenge game, Bill Belichick is just not 0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:18.480 going to allow Jimmy Garoppolo to have a good game. 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:20.519 To the Niner. I like best in this game, is 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:23.560 Jerick McKinnon. Uh, even though I'm gonna give him a 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:25.480 C and I might give George Kittle a bee, will 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:27.040 get the kidle in a minute, But a cee for 0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:31.000 McKinnon averaging nineteen touches for nearly ninety combo yards and 0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.960 a touchdown per game as the starting running back. The 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.239 Patriots not a great matchup though they've only allowed two 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:39.040 total touchdowns and running back so far this year. But 0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:41.280 they are allowing a hundred twenty eight combo yards to 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:44.560 the position, so jet is a pretty safe volume play. 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:47.440 Even though this Jim Michael Hasty kid showed a little 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:51.840 spunk the other the other week. This week look good, Uh, Matt, 0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:56.799 get your your head at Davante Freeman's range over there 0:02:57.200 --> 0:03:00.480 over to George Kittle can give him a B. Probably 0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:02.200 the worst matchup for Kiddle out in the season. The 0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:05.040 Patriots are allowing the third fewest catches per game three, 0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:09.799 the sixth fewest yards per game forty to opposing tight ends. 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:13.640 And uh yeah, Belichick, he's gonna want to shut down Garoppolo, 0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:15.000 but you know how he loves to take away the 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:18.320 team's best weapon. Opposing team's best weapon that is George Kittle, 0:03:18.919 --> 0:03:20.800 just ask what he did to Travis Kelsey only had 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:23.200 three catches. Darren Waller just two catches. So I'm a 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.000 little worried about Kidle in this one. But you're definitely 0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:27.920 not benching him. You are benching Deebo Samuel and Brandon Ayouk, 0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:30.680 though Stefan Gilmour will be a problem for both of 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:33.520 these guys. And outside of the Seattle and Kansas City 0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:36.920 wide receivers who the Patriots faced, they've kept every other 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:38.440 wide out out of the end zone unless they were 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:42.240 Seahawk or a Chief, and uh, white outs are not. 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:45.680 And that does it for the San Francisco side over 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:49.640 the New England side. James White see for him fifteen 0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:52.480 catches and two games since returning UM, but this isn't 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:54.680 a great spot on paper for him either. San Francisco 0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:57.760 has only allowed one running back to top three catches. 0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:00.560 Miles Gascon has had the best day through the air 0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:03.320 for running backs against San Francisco with five catches for 0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:06.080 thirty four yards. So that's hopefully a floor for James 0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:08.800 Waity here. He should still see double digit, double digit 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.440 PPR points. Damien Harris I got him on the bench. 0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:13.920 San Francisco has allowed just two rushing touchdowns to running 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:17.039 backs and just one opposing back as top sixty five 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:19.440 rushing yards. And if there's a goal rund goal line 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:22.480 rush for the Patriots, it's probably we'll get to in 0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:25.440 a second. Uh. The only pass catcher we'll talk about 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:27.479 for the Patriots is Julian Edelman. He gets a see. 0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:30.680 San Francisco has allowed to touchdown per a lot of 0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:33.760 touchdown per game to opposing wide receivers. Julian Edelman is 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:36.239 yet to score this year, but this is a plus 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:39.640 match up with backup slot corner Jamark Taylor likely to 0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:42.240 see UH Edelman and coverage most. He's allowed a hundred 0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:44.640 and seven pass rating in his three games played as 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:47.240 a starting slot corner, So a c for Edelman and 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:49.000 kill Harry on the bench. We're not getting to that 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:51.040 too much. And then Cam Newton, we just talked about 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:54.000 forty nine ers have allowed five passing touchdowns over the 0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:55.480 last two weeks. That's a lot. But I'm not going 0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:57.479 to talk about Cam Newton's arm right now. It's all 0:04:57.480 --> 0:05:00.400 about the It's nothing to talk about his arm. I 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:02.960 think he's averaging him to the top of my head. 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:06.600 I think he's averaging one hundred eighty passing yards and 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:10.080 half a touchdown per game. Yeah, and but against those 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:12.200 are those are just the bonus points for CAM at 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.760 this point, right, double digit rushing attempts in three of 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:18.880 five games for Cam, he scored on the ground five times. Already, 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.760 Mobile quarterbacks have had success against the Niners so far 0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:25.000 the season. Kyler Murray, Daniel Jones, Carson Wentz combined for 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:27.440 a hundred and seventy seven yards on twenty three carries 0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:33.360 with two touchdowns. Daniel Jones is mobile. He's too mobile. 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:37.280 That's the problem. You run just eighty yards at any speed, 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:41.920 Matt and I was down, he was going, he was cooking. 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:44.120 That's white guy rectored speed right there. As far as 0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:47.080 he's going faster than his legs would physically take this, 0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:51.520 I think somehow despite using his legs, Matt Pittsburgh takes 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:55.000 on Tennessee. James Conner, against all odds, remains a workhorse back. 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:56.640 He got when he got knocked out in Week one. 0:05:57.120 --> 0:06:00.680 Everybody me, you know, basically rode off his his potential 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:02.960 to be a workhorse back. But he's proving us wrong 0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:04.880 and pretty much every game. Yeah, and I'm giving him 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:07.360 an a this week. He's scored in four straight clear 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.200 to hundred yards and three of his last four, and 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:12.119 the Titans are allowing five yards per carrying a hundred 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:14.279 and twelve yards per game to the running back position. 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:17.520 It is worth noting though, for those scoring at home, 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:21.520 Benny Snell has exactly seven carries in each of those 0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:26.240 last two games, and Anthony McFarland only has three. So 0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:29.080 if you're waiting on the James Conner injury, you're waiting 0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:31.039 for the other shoe to drop any Snell is the 0:06:31.080 --> 0:06:34.800 guy to have right now. Ben Roethlisberger, I'm giving a 0:06:34.880 --> 0:06:37.520 b big bend, just hasn't been asked to air it out, 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:40.159 averaging only two d thirty six passing yards per game, 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:43.520 which makes him eighteenth in that category, but he's averaging 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:46.480 two point two passing touchdowns per game, so he's throwing 0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:49.560 the scores. That's good. Uh. That really works here because 0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:52.640 the Titans have allowed multiple touchdown passes to each of 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:55.720 the last four quarterbacks they've faced. Basically, if your name 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:59.720 isn't Drew Lock, you throw for multiple scores. Chase Claypool 0:06:59.800 --> 0:07:02.400 is the number one wide receiver on the Pittsburgh Steelers 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.800 and I won't hear it any other way, will you. 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:07.760 You don't know that yet because every time Deonta Johnson 0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:10.040 has been on the field with him, Deante Johnson has 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:13.280 been the number one receiver. You know what? Yeah, maybe 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:16.800 anyway we'll see. Well, we got hurt in the first quarter, 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:20.040 and trust me my bank roll as summer tell me 0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:23.400 about it. Johnson out there, I'm going back to the 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:27.280 will this week. Um. Claypool has six scores in his 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:30.000 five game career and it's facing off against the Titans 0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:33.240 defense that has allowed eleven different wide receivers to top 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:35.800 fifty yards or score in a game this year. And 0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:39.560 they've only played five times. They're allowing sixteen catches per 0:07:39.560 --> 0:07:42.280 game for almost two hundred yards the wide receiver position. 0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:47.080 Because and that's good because we talked about Claypool. He's 0:07:47.120 --> 0:07:50.320 only got twenty four targets on the season. That's not 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:55.000 a lot. Juju leads the team with twenty eight yikes. 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:58.880 James Washington and Deonte Johnson each have twenty six. It's 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:02.760 a wide receiver by MIDI now Deontay has missed exactly 0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:06.200 on a purse game basis. Deonta Johnson is the most 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:08.600 targeted of them, and I know we're going to talk 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:11.000 a little bit about Juju later. I'm only given him 0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:13.960 a meager C grade in this Deontay has cleared the 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:17.040 injury report, has the most targets per game with six 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:20.360 and a half, so he's worth a C start. No, 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:23.000 he's worth the C start here. And James Washington is 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:24.800 even worth a dart throw in this matchup, but he's 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:28.320 touchdown dependent. I'm still worried about the re injury for Deontay. 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.680 He's not even on the injury more. Okay, fine, guys, 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:34.360 stop fighting. Your mom and dad are fighting. Eric Ebron, 0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:36.559 he gets a C grade. The Titans have allowed four 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:39.760 different teams to record a tight end touchdown in five games, 0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:42.720 so Eric Ebron has an eight chance at a score here. 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:45.800 On the Titan side, Derrick Henry gets an A. But 0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:50.880 it's more like an A subordinate. That's the anti hard mark. 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.720 It's like it's like an A if they if we 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:56.400 did minuses on this show. You know that. Um, you 0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:59.360 know Henry stats. But the Steelers have been awesome against 0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:01.480 the run, only three point two yards per carry and 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:05.040 fifty five yards per game to the position. But Miles Sanders, 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:08.160 he's the silver Lining broke a big run against them 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:10.760 and scored twice, so let's hope that he can return 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:14.520 those A grade numbers. Ryan Tannehill, he's getting a C grade. 0:09:14.720 --> 0:09:18.280 He's third in the league with two point six touchdown 0:09:18.280 --> 0:09:22.720 passes per game. He's got three four touchdown games. Yeah, unbelievable. 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:24.960 Eleventh in the league with two or seventy four passing 0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:27.559 yards per game. But they haven't really played any good teams. 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:31.360 Buffalo is kind of good, but he's played Jacksonville, Minnesota, Houston, 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:36.040 and Danver. The Steelers lead the NFL in SACS pressure 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:38.880 rate and QB hit rate and Tannehill just lost left 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.199 tackle Taylor Luan. That's not good for Tannehills. He's only 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:44.800 getting a C grade. Uh. The Steelers are only allowing 0:09:44.800 --> 0:09:47.000 two or fifty two yards and just under two scores 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:50.280 per game. I guess that's feasible for Tannehill, but I'm 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:53.000 not trusting it that much. A. J. Brown popped up 0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:56.200 on the injury report and missed uh some some practice 0:09:56.240 --> 0:09:59.240 time on Thursday, but he's been an absolute stud since 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:02.000 returning from injur two weeks ago, and the Steelers aren't 0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:04.320 nearly a scary against the wide receiver this year. They 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:06.000 have a lot of hundred and seventy eight yards and 0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:08.200 a score and a half to that position this year, 0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:11.240 so I'm giving him a B. Corey Davis does return 0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:13.240 from the COVID list, but I'm sitting him this week. 0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:16.160 If you need another wide receiver, it's Adam Humphries. He's 0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:17.920 a solid see he's getting a lot of run from 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.560 the slot. Caught all six of his targets for sixty 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:23.720 four and a score last week. And then finally John 0:10:23.760 --> 0:10:28.160 new smithy man, it looks like he's going to be 0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:30.240 back on the field after an ankle injury knocked him 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:34.319 out last week. And he's just an absolutely manly competitor. 0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:37.800 Chart because I heard that John WU. Smith doesn't climb trees, 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:40.680 he just pulls them down and walks on them. I 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:43.680 also heard that John U. Smith once visited the virgin 0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:47.040 Islands and now they just call him the Islands. Yeah, 0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:50.679 but the Steelers are insanely good against the tight end, 0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:53.280 allowing only four catches and forty three yards per game 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:55.360 and just one score on the season, So he's only 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:59.080 getting a C this week. You'll come to regret that heresy. 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:05.320 It's a Art Detroit takes on Atlanta for Matthew Stafford 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:08.280 and A grade he should cash in on a secondary 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:10.880 allowing almost three hundred yards and two and a half 0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:13.880 touchdowns per game. All of US receivers have positive matchups, 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:16.280 as I will outline right now, beginning with Kenny Golladay, 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:19.120 who also gets an A grade Atlanta getting owned by 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.320 opposing Whiteouts. Eight different wide receivers have already managed the 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:24.800 top ninety yards against them, in most in a way 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:28.640 above ninety. Holiday most often will match up against cornerback 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:32.439 Kendall Sheffield, who has been brutal and ranks as cornerback 0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:37.240 one twenty by Pro Football Focus. It is an absolute 0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:42.360 green light special for Kenny Golladay, also getting an A 0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:45.040 tight end t J. Hockinson, why I don't think has 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:47.600 ever had an A before in this show. He has 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:49.560 scored in each of his last two games, and he 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.640 faces a Falcon's defense that's allowed the second most yards 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:56.080 and the most touchdowns to opposing tight ends game on 0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:59.600 t J. Hockenson. Sticking with the passing game, I know 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:03.400 it's been a disaster season for Marvin Jones, particularly the 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:05.280 last two weeks, with a nine yard game in an 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:09.760 eight yard game, but you know he will most often 0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:12.280 be covered by rookie cornerback A. J. Terrell, who is 0:12:12.280 --> 0:12:15.920 allowing his passes and his coverage to be completed. He 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:18.120 gave up seventy five yards and a touchdown in his 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:21.000 coverage last week. If you're feeling bold or you've got 0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:23.960 bye week issues, Marvin Jones, You've had the bounce back 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:26.319 could very well be this week. Now let's go to 0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:29.600 the running game. DeAndre Swift had the breakout game last week, 0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:32.920 leading Adrian Peterson and snaps and touches. He's already proved 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:35.280 himself to be a good receiver and now he's getting 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:37.400 carries at the stripe no less, and he has a 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:40.920 good opportunity against a a middle of the pack run defense, 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:45.040 but the worst paths of the worst defense in recovering 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:48.599 running backs as receivers, and I think DeAndre Swift is 0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:50.440 sitting out a big PPR game and he gets a 0:12:50.480 --> 0:12:53.520 B grade. Adrian Peterson only gets the ball when the 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:56.760 Lions are ahead, and for once that can actually happen here, 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:59.440 So you know, there's certainly risk and DeAndre Swift is 0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:01.720 going to get may keep getting goal line looks, but 0:13:01.760 --> 0:13:03.680 I think in a pinch in a bye week, we'll 0:13:03.679 --> 0:13:06.640 give Adrian Peterson a C grade. Let's flip over to 0:13:06.640 --> 0:13:09.439 the Atlanta side, where this is pretty easy because Matt Ryan, 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.640 Julio Jones, and Calvin Ridley are all obvious. A's Detroit 0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:15.760 has allowed multiple passing touchdowns to every quarterback they face. 0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:18.440 They're going to give up multiple touchdowns here. All of 0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:22.920 the Falcons starting receivers have favorable matchups against their cornerback counterparts. 0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:26.720 Justin Coleman cornerback remains an I R. Desmon Trufont may 0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:29.040 Or may not play, and even when he does play, 0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:32.360 he's been bad. So we love Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, 0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:35.199 Matt Ryan this week, sticking with the passing game, Hayden 0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:38.120 Hurst tight end. On paper, the lines are a difficult 0:13:38.120 --> 0:13:41.360 matchup for tight ends um as they've allowed opposing tight 0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:45.040 ends to average only two catches, twenty four yards and 0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:48.600 half a touchdown per game. But they face an extremely 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.439 soft schedule of tight ends, and the two competent tight 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:56.640 ends they face, Jimmy Graham and Robert's Tonyon Tonyon Tonyon, 0:13:57.040 --> 0:14:00.959 We're gonna talk about that later scored touchdowns. He's tons 0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:03.560 of fun, tons of fun. That's Robert Touny in and 0:14:03.600 --> 0:14:06.679 he gets a C grade. Lastly, Todd Gurley coming off 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:09.200 a bad game, but he's still seeing plenty of volume 0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:11.600 and face as a team allowing the third most rushing 0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:16.199 yards on twenty four per game. He gets a B 0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:18.760 grade here in what should be a solid outing for 0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:23.120 Todd Gurley. When we come back, it is time for 0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:26.720 take a chance on me. As you may be aware, 0:14:26.960 --> 0:14:29.120 nine players not normally in your starting line up, many 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:32.200 of whom are available off of the waiver wire. I've 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:35.800 got two that are probably on the waiver wire in 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:38.080 my set, and I know it's a tough bye week 0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:40.040 for many of you. Will help you out with some 0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:44.280 unheralded players you can start this week when we return 0:14:44.320 --> 0:15:11.200 to Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:15.400 archy In, Brian Johnson from Guillotine Leagues dot Com, Matt 0:15:15.440 --> 0:15:18.480 Harrison Shocked Fantasy. We encourage you to check out Matt's 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:24.560 waiver wire work, especially on Tuesdays at Shock Fantasy. Oh yeah, 0:15:25.040 --> 0:15:27.600 it's time to take a chance on me. Nine players 0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:29.280 not normally in your starting lineup. We begin at the 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:33.120 quarterback position. Brian, I have Joe Burrow at home versus 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:35.760 the Browns. Now these two teams actually faced faced off 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.480 in Week two. Already, Burrow had three sixteen yards for 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:41.600 three touchdowns in that game. The Browns have allowed multiple 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:44.400 passing touchdowns in four of six games, at least three 0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:48.200 touchdowns in three of those four games, Burrow has top 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:51.720 three yards and four of his last five Cleveland owns 0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:55.560 of the seventh highest opponent passing play percentage. Burrow leads 0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:58.080 the NFL and pass attempts per game with forty one. 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:00.600 I love the matchups for all his receivers, even tight 0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:04.600 and drew sample. So Jill Burrow, okay, And your quarterback 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.080 matt a guy who's not being treated as a top 0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:10.560 ten quarterback but is a top ten quarterback in passing yards. 0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:14.000 That's Teddy Bridgewater. He's thrown for two seventy nine yards 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:16.880 per game. His issue is he's only thrown for six 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:19.720 touchdown passes in six games. But I think he breaks 0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.840 through this week, as the Saints have allowed at least 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:26.880 three touchdown passes to each of the past four quarterbacks 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:31.080 they've faced, including a four touchdown game to Justin Herbert 0:16:31.120 --> 0:16:33.160 in the last game that they played. So I like 0:16:33.240 --> 0:16:37.600 Teddy here. Kyle Allen quietly coming off a really good 0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:40.520 game last week, and he's a plausible dart throw against 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:44.120 a Dallas defense giving up twenty nine points per game. 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:47.560 And as bad as the Dallas defense is, you know, 0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:50.680 wobbly quarterbacks have just been okay, Jared Goff and Daniel 0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:53.400 Jones got blank, So success here is not assured for 0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:57.000 Kyle Allen. Still, for the past five quarterbacks to face 0:16:57.040 --> 0:17:00.320 Dallas have thrown multiple touchdowns, and Terry McLaurin all Loan 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:05.200 should provide a safe floor for Kyle Allen. Bryant. Let's 0:17:05.200 --> 0:17:07.880 go to the running back position now, charge. I want 0:17:07.920 --> 0:17:09.840 you to think back to Week one and how happy 0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:13.040 were you at the exact moment Zack Moss caught a 0:17:13.080 --> 0:17:18.800 touchdown pass right then Jasmin was rolling and Zack Moss 0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:21.720 had just scored. It all seemed good for a moment. Well, 0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:24.240 let's run it back because the Bills and Jets are 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:27.680 meeting again, this time in New Jersey. As I said, 0:17:27.760 --> 0:17:31.600 Zack Moss did catch a touchdown, proved relevance in that game, 0:17:31.800 --> 0:17:33.760 and uh, I'm basically going to will a good game 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:36.040 from Zack Moss here. My last two running backs and 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:38.880 take comm have scored two touchdowns, so two touchdowns coming 0:17:38.880 --> 0:17:43.000 for Zack Moss. Buffalo needs to instill some confidence in 0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:45.480 their rookie running back, and what better spot than against 0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:49.639 the tanking New York Jets. Devin Singletary is not the guy, 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:52.800 averaging less than three yards per carry over his last 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:56.080 three games and after allowing just twelve total running back 0:17:56.119 --> 0:18:00.159 touchdowns in the Jets have already surrendered eight score us 0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:03.080 to the position, including five in their last four games. 0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:06.320 Zack Moss is going to finally pay off this, let's hope. 0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:11.880 So problem Twitter loves to ravage me for Zach loss Uh, Matt, 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:13.760 who is your take a chance of me running back? 0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:17.720 It's Lottavius Murray. Huh. Alvin Kamara is my favorite back 0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:20.280 of the week, but Latavius might be the sneakiest play 0:18:20.320 --> 0:18:23.639 of the week. He's only forty eight hundred on DraftKings, 0:18:23.680 --> 0:18:26.440 by the way, and the Panthers are are allowing four 0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:30.400 point eight yards per carry. They've already allowed eight rushing 0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:33.760 touchdowns on the year, and in a similar matchup against 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:37.600 the stinky Detroit defense, the Saints deployed Murray very well 0:18:37.640 --> 0:18:40.760 to the tune of fourteen carries, sixty four yards and 0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:44.280 two touchdowns in that game. Speaking of yardage totals in 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:47.840 the sixties, Murray faced the Panthers twice last year. He 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.200 hit sixty yards in both games and scored in one. 0:18:51.359 --> 0:18:54.080 Justin Jackson is might take a chance, I mean running 0:18:54.080 --> 0:18:58.560 back up against Jacksonville in the first non Austin Ekeler 0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:02.159 game for the Chargers was before last week's by Justin 0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:05.480 Jackson out snapped and outtouched Josh Kelly by a two 0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:08.720 to one margin and simply looked much better. The last 0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:13.040 three backs to face Jacksonville, Joe Mixon, David Johnson DeAndre 0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:17.000 Swift gash them for nearly seven yards per carry. This 0:19:17.080 --> 0:19:19.919 is a great opportunity for Justin Jackson and actually not 0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:21.919 a half bad one for Josh and Josh Kelly. If 0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:24.240 you need to go a little bit deeper, let's go 0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:26.280 to the wide receiver position. You take a chance of me, 0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:29.720 player is I'm going back to the Bengals Browns game 0:19:29.720 --> 0:19:33.720 and I got a j Green versus Cleveland. I mentioned 0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:36.560 these teams played in Week two. A j had thirteen 0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:39.160 targets in that game. Turned it into like two catches 0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:42.840 or something. Hey, three, right there, we go. Believe it 0:19:42.880 --> 0:19:44.880 or not. That was a J's first game against Cleveland 0:19:44.840 --> 0:19:48.840 since that first time. Yeah, he's been hurt a lot, 0:19:49.040 --> 0:19:52.360 but he's healthy now. And anyways, after that week two game, 0:19:52.400 --> 0:19:54.480 things basically kept getting worse for a J until last 0:19:54.480 --> 0:19:56.840 week against the Colts, when he had eight catches ninety 0:19:56.880 --> 0:19:59.520 six yards on eleven targets. The Browns have allowed the 0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:02.919 third most targets end receptions to wide receivers, who have 0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:06.240 also been very active inside the twenties. Against Cleveland, the 0:20:06.280 --> 0:20:09.240 Browns have yielded the most red zone targets and red 0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:12.720 zone touches to the position. I use this term last 0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:15.560 week with swift, but a J Green and elite GPP 0:20:15.680 --> 0:20:18.399 play this week. Alright, Matt, Your take a chance of 0:20:18.480 --> 0:20:20.840 the receiver is lots of people need help at the 0:20:20.880 --> 0:20:22.960 tight end question, So I'm going to help him out 0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:26.760 this week. Darren Fells, uh, he plays for the Houston Texans. 0:20:26.760 --> 0:20:29.160 If you're not aware, Jordan Aikins looks like he's still 0:20:29.200 --> 0:20:32.160 gonna miss some time with both concussion and ankle injuries. 0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:34.920 And it's worth noting a few things about Darren Fells. 0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:37.560 He scored in each of the last two games since 0:20:37.640 --> 0:20:40.800 Jordan Nakins got hurt, He's cleared fifty yards in both 0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:44.960 of those contests. He's averaging fourteen point six yards per catch, 0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:47.680 which is very high for a tight end. High and 0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:50.800 three different tight ends have topped fifty yards against the 0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:54.280 Packers in the last four games. I think Darren Fells 0:20:54.560 --> 0:20:57.240 great chance of topping fifty and scoring again. If you 0:20:57.240 --> 0:20:59.119 need help at wide receiver, I will give you a 0:20:59.240 --> 0:21:05.680 similar deep opportunity for you with DeMarcus Robinson against Denver 0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:09.360 that is deep. Sammy Watkins is out, so DeMarcus Robinson 0:21:09.520 --> 0:21:12.480 starts and out. Last week, Robinson was on the field 0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:18.880 for of the Chief Snaps. I'm interested in any carbon 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:23.080 based life form that's on the field of the snaps 0:21:23.080 --> 0:21:27.320 and you can catch passes from Patrick Mahomes DeMarcus Robinson 0:21:27.400 --> 0:21:31.400 carbon based life form. Denver's got one good cornerback, Bryce Callahan. 0:21:31.600 --> 0:21:35.399 He's gonna shadow Tyreek Hill. That puts Robinson up against 0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:45.080
