26
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: little bit more about your opportunities to crush me at

27
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: grain belt dot com later in this show. We begin

28
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: with maybe the most moribund matchup of the weekend, the

29
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 1: Jets taking on the Miami Dolphins. Miami is the lowest

30
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: scoring offense in the league, yet they have a winning record.

31
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: They've done it on the back of a sneaky good defense.

32
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: Are there any Jets players that you want to start

33
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: this week? Yeah? I think so. I mean, for in

34
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: the passing game. Josh McCown has had three games of

35
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: multiple touch jowns, but the Miami passy, as you kind

36
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: of mentioned, is top ten. They've only allowed one multi

37
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: touchdown game and no one over three yards since week

38
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,119
Speaker 1: to mccount had two nine and touch in Week three

39
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: against them. I think that's realistic. This week, I'm giving

40
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: m account of C grade. I'm giving both of his

41
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: receivers Jermaine Curson, Robby Anderson c grades as well and

42
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: kind of hesitantly. Anderson has been hurt, but he should play.

43
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 1: Curse has caught four balls in each of the last

44
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: three games. Anderson led the team and targets in the

45
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: last two weeks. Neither his topped eighty yards. But you know,

46
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: I think that that volume has got to go somewhere

47
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: a little bit. I think most of the volume, however,

48
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: I give se grades on them. Most of the volume. However,

49
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be awstin Sfaran Jenkins. He's led

50
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: the team and targets since his return, tied for the

51
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: team lead, averaging over seven per game, nineteen in the

52
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: last two weeks, and the Dolphins are allowing a second

53
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: most catches to tight ends and the second most targets

54
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: to tight ends. Great matchup A grade for him. I'm

55
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: kind of benching the entire a running game though we

56
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: talk about that. A s J touchdown that got taken

57
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: away real quickly. Is that not the worst for sure?

58
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: But I think it's been talked out six days later.

59
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: I think we can all agree that his owners got job. Yeah, terrible, terrible, Well,

60
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: I am benching the entire running game here. With Powell

61
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: coming back, McGuire is going to go back to the

62
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: bench for the most part. Fort did have a bunch

63
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 1: of catches last week, but he's gonna split that with

64
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: Powell this week. And Miami is tough against the run game,

65
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: only allowing three point seven yards per carry. I don't

66
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: like any of them on the Miami side. I'm benching

67
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: Jay Color because he's J Color. I mean, he's averaging

68
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: a hundred and seventy one yards passing per game. That's nothing,

69
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: but what he does throw seems to go to Jarvis Landry,

70
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: who I'm giving an A grade to. Jarvis Landry is

71
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: catching thirty eight percent of J Cutler's passes. That's over

72
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: one out of every three passes are going to Landry,

73
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: who's averaging over eleven targets per game and a touchdown

74
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: in each of his last two A grade there, I'm

75
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: kind of benching both Parker and Stills. It sounds like

76
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: Parker's not gonna play if he doesn't go. Maybe Stills

77
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: gets his C grade. He had four catches in a

78
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: touch on last week. But I'm probably still benching both.

79
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: In the running game, J j I. I'm giving a

80
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: B grade too. Yeah, he had a terrible game against

81
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 1: the Jets earlier this season and he still hasn't found

82
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: the end zone. But the Jets since that game are

83
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: allowing a hundred and fifty four yards and a score

84
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: per game. So I'm giving a G I a B grade.

85
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: I like him here too. I think it's it's prime

86
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: for a bounce back. Yeah, Bengals take on the Steelers.

87
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: Brian Steelers are a elite past defense and a bad

88
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: run defense, so I gotta get I gotta feel like

89
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna get a lot of Joe Mixon in this game. Yeah,

90
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm giving Mixing a pretty solid B here. Pittsburgh is

91
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 1: allowing a hundred fifty nine combo yards per game UM

92
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: and over Cincinnati's last three games, Mixing has fifty seven

93
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 1: touches to the thirty four from Geo Bernard and Aunt

94
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill combined. So he has almost elevated to Bill

95
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 1: Coow status. Isn't this to think Bill Laser has done best?

96
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 1: If we're gonna say the one thing that he's done best,

97
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: he's gotten the ball to his best players. You know

98
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: he's here. A J. Green is really good. Here's a

99
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: bunch of passes. Joe Mixon, You're really good, You're a

100
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: best runner. Here's a bunch of rushes. Sorry, Jeremy Hill,

101
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 1: it's like playing Madden's that easy? Yeah, well, you know

102
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: good players. Tell that to whatever Ernie's amps or wherever

103
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: it was that they let go before Bill Laser. What

104
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 1: what kiosk is he working at the mall? Anyway, let's

105
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 1: stick with the running game real quick. I will give

106
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: you Bernard a C minus here during that three game,

107
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 1: the last three games, he does have twice as many

108
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: receiving yards on Joe Mixon. Pittsburgh has allowed the six

109
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: most catches to running back. So if you're an a

110
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 1: pension PPR, you could give Bernard a flyer. Jeremy Hill

111
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: is obviously deceased when it comes to fantasy football. He's

112
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: on the bench. Over to a J Green and give

113
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 1: him an A minus. I'm gonna go kind of heavy

114
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 1: on the plus plus minuses today. This is a warning,

115
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: but yeah, I'm not cool with that. I didn't even

116
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: know you could do that. You can't do that. I

117
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: think I'm still gonna do it, but we'll see if

118
00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: I can justify I can have Joe, turn your mic off,

119
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: Mike alright A for A. J. Green has scored in

120
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: three of his last four games against the Steelers. But

121
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: like as you said, charge, Pittsburgh has been tough against

122
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: the past. They've only allowed three touchdowns of wide receivers

123
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: so far this year. The highest yardage output by a

124
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 1: wide receiver was sixty one yards by Anthony Thomas. But

125
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: I would start a J. Green even even if the

126
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: T one thousand was going to shadow him. So he's

127
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 1: obviously horrible. Uh. Tyler Croft not so much? Uh kind

128
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: of a we We mentioned him last week. He he

129
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 1: could be a streamer most in some weeks, not this week.

130
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh has allowed the eleventh few of the yards at

131
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: tight ends, so he's on the bench, as is Andy Dalton.

132
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,239
Speaker 1: The Steelers have allowed just four passing touchdowns uh this season,

133
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: and Green's really the only startable receiver in this game,

134
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: so Dalton's on the bench as well. Over to Pittsburgh,

135
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: Levan Bell easy A has only played Cincinnati once in

136
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: each of the last three seasons and hasn't scored. But uh,

137
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: I d g a F about that, So you're starting Bell? Uh?

138
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown I had a minus on him, but I'm

139
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: gonna take it off because Adam Jones out. Adam Jones

140
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: is out, so there to help him. Brown to total

141
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: just seven catches uh in ninety seven yards across two

142
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 1: games against since he last year, But but no Jones

143
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: will help, and obviously you're starting Brown as well. I'm

144
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: benching uh Juju Smith, Schuster and Martavis Bryant. Though even

145
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: with Adam Jones out, these guys are just kind of

146
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: the vulture in each other here. Um, don't we have

147
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: a new producer so he won't be able to keep

148
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: the bullet. I can, but I don't know if I

149
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: gotta do wide receiver vulturing or should be Mark. We'll

150
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: talk about Martavis Bryant a little later. Talking about Martavis

151
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: Bryant a little later. But I'm just mentioning these guys

152
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: and it's still a bad matchup without Adam Jones and

153
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger. I'll give a seed. Maybe I won't do it.

154
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go plus route. But with Adam Jones

155
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: out that helps Roethlisberger as well. But he has one

156
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: or zero passing touchdowns and four of his last five

157
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: games against since he was ranked seventh against the past.

158
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: Not a great start, but you can because Ben is

159
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: at home. He's Ben at home. And if you're just

160
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: gonna play the averages across all of his opponents over

161
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: the last three years, you're looking at three touchdown passes

162
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 1: and three or twenty five yards Ben, So you know

163
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: it's it's It is a little bit of trends colliding

164
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: the home bend versus a great past defense. Ravens take

165
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: on the Vikings, and Viking fans hate it when I

166
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: give a prediction that is a one sided win. But

167
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: that's what I see coming here. And I've got bench

168
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: grades on every Raven, including Alex Collins, who's the closest

169
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: to a C grade. He is averaging six point four

170
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: yards per carry, which is fantastic, but they're still giving

171
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: half of the runs to bunk Allen for no reason.

172
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: And he's facing a Vikings run defense that's dramatically improved

173
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: from last year. They ranked third overall. They're giving up

174
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: just three point two yards per carry, just one rushing

175
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: touchdown allowed on the year. So I've got Collins on

176
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: the bench, I've got bunk Allen on the bench as well.

177
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: You could still he will catch some passes, but the

178
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: Vikings are allowing the fourth fewest receptions and the fourth

179
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: fewest yards to opposing running backs, so I don't think

180
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: he gets much done through the air either. And the

181
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: whole Baltimore passing games on the bench, Joe Flacco has

182
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: just been dreadful, averaging one D sixty seven passing yards

183
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: per game one touchdown pass in his last month of games.

184
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: I was hoping for Max Williams to step up in

185
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: a homecoming homecoming. When that's gotten for me, he is

186
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: out already, is already as always. By the way, unfortunately,

187
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: um Vikings have only allowed four passing touchdowns in the

188
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: last month of games. You could try Mike Wallace for

189
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: the tray Waynes the likely tray Waynes Mike Wallace matchup,

190
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: but I wouldn't do it, and and I've still got a

191
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: bench grade on Mike Wallace. To let's go to the

192
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: Viking side. Jerick McKinnon had been an A earlier in

193
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: the week, and I've knocked him down to a B

194
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 1: because the Ravens run defense gets back their star defensive

195
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,719
Speaker 1: tackle Brandon Williams. They were giving up almost double the

196
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: rushing yards with him out of the game. That they

197
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: were giving them, they were allowing in the first two

198
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: weeks with Brandon Williams in the game. Still, McKinnon has

199
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: been great the last couple of weeks's averaging since Dalvin

200
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: Cook went down. He's averaging twenty two touches per game.

201
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: That is workhorse style numbers, and the Ravens on the

202
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: year do rank thirty against the run, but again most

203
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: of that built on Brandon Williams not being there, and

204
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: he will be back. Kyle Rudolph gets an A grade.

205
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: Ravens have got a good past events overall, but tight

206
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: ends have just had their way with them, especially lately.

207
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: Over the last five games, they've allowed six tight end

208
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: touchdowns and Rudolph, who's had been languishing at their case,

209
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: keenum nine targets in each of the last two weeks.

210
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: So Kyle Rudolph solid a start here. Adam Theland's a

211
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: beast start. He goes up against Ladarius Web. On one hand,

212
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: five of six slot receivers have been held to three

213
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: receptions are less by the Ravens and Ladarius Web. On

214
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: the other hand, Profoball Focus hasn't ranked at cornerback one

215
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: D five, so apparently he's not doing that many things

216
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: very well. He's been targeted theland, has been targeted eight

217
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: or more times in five games, and it's coming up

218
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: a season high thirteen targets last week without Diggs, and

219
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: obviously Digs not going in this one either, So feeling

220
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 1: be start. I've got case Keenum on the bench with

221
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: zero one touchdowns in four or five games. You I

222
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: could get my way up to say I almost gave

223
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: him a C grade, but the touchdown production just hasn't

224
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: been there um and without Digs, I just I can't

225
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: find myself loving him enough here to get him up

226
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: to a C. Grede Ravens have allowed quarterback staverage just

227
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: one hundred sixty two yards and one touchdown in their

228
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: last three games. This is a good past defense. Cases

229
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 1: on the bench when we come back, take a chance

230
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: on me. These are nine players not normally and you're

231
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: starting lineup. Find out who they are and find out

232
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 1: if Scott Fishing can replicate last week's brilliant Chris Ivory

233
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: to out when we return Your Distinct a fantasy football

234
00:11:45,120 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 1: weekly on the fan. No, No, I'm out of here

235
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: are low water markets Week seven? Nine players not normally

236
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: you're starting lineup. God moved quickly. Please quarterback position, Scott. Uh,

237
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 1: this week I got C. J. Beathard. I really like him.

238
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 1: This week. The Cowboys defense are giving up over two

239
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards per game, their bottom ten defense

240
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: that has surrendered eleven passing touchdowns and multiple touchdowns per

241
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: game over the last four Bethard had two d forty

242
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: five yards and a score in just two and a

243
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: half quarters last week. I think a lot of the

244
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: optimism you've had for hire and games you should transfer

245
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: this one. Brian, your quarterback alright? Gen Kaiser as back

246
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: as the starter for the Browns against the Tennessee Titans,

247
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 1: who I ranks against the past by football outsiders d

248
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: v O a UM Jacoby Prisette kind of wet the

249
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: bed against the Titans last week with only two seven

250
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: totally yards and one touchdown. But well, I wasn't calling

251
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: you out there, Scott. This is I'm using this for

252
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: my own purpose. I'm calling that as a safe floor

253
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: for Kaiser here. Browns could be without cornerback Jason McCardy,

254
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 1: who was an upbretchel on corner that would certainly help

255
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: his cause. Uh, Kaiser isn't Russell Wilson or Deshaun Watson yet,

256
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: nor does he have the weapons of those guys. But

257
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: he is of the same mold athletically, and those two

258
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 1: quarterbacks total nine total touchdowns against the Titans. So I'm

259
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: rolling with Kaiser's all right. I'll take Jared Goff. Before

260
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 1: golf played last week Jacksonville the league's number one past defense.

261
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: He was averaging two hundred seventy five passing yards per game,

262
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: and now he gets back on track against the Cardinals

263
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 1: secondary with a gimpy Patrick Peterson, and the Cardinals, even

264
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: with Peters in our bottom five pass defense, are giving

265
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: him two point three touchdowns per game to quarterbacks, including

266
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 1: four games with three or more touchdown passes. I like

267
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: Jared Goff in this game. I can better than both

268
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 1: of your matt You take a chance of the quarterbacks too.

269
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 1: I'll mention that you're running back, Scott. That sounded like

270
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: a whiteboard bet a little bit, alright. I am doubling

271
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: down on Chris Ivory this week. It almost feels you

272
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: gave us Chris Ivory last week. How did that work out?

273
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:10,079
Speaker 1: I totally called those nine catches to you did your

274
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 1: first peacock first Peacock feels good. Uh yeah, doubling down

275
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: on Chris Ivory. He's averaging ten touches per game over

276
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: the last three, fifty four yards per game over the

277
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: last three, and he's had over forty total yards in

278
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: all six games. You know, obviously had a good game

279
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: last week. This week for Net isn't practicing. They have

280
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: a bye week after that, so I think if Fournett

281
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 1: does go, maybe they'll lighten his load a little bit

282
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: and Ivery gets even more touches. All right, all right,

283
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: I have a time stamped email where I planned my

284
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: flag in this player before another player went on I

285
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: R and it's Marlon Mack at home against the Jaguars.

286
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: Kind of a layup at this point, but Frank Gore

287
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: is still in the mix. But Frank Gore is just

288
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: so so bad. Has a top fifty yards only one

289
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: time this year. Gore is averaging three point four yards

290
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: per carry to be four point eight from Marlon Mac.

291
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: Mac also has four rushes of tony plus yards to

292
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: Gore's one. Jacksonville's is awesome against the past, ranked number

293
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: one by Football Outsiders at thirty first against the run.

294
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: Jacksonville is also top ten an opponent rushing play percentage.

295
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: So hopefully Mac gets some shine in this one. All right,

296
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: I am going, well, let's let's let's go on the

297
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: way back time machine. The last time James White faced

298
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: the Falcons was Super Bowl, the Super Bowl. We all

299
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: remember how that turned out. Fourteen receptions, ten yards later.

300
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: He should have been the Super Bowl m v P.

301
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: But those cowards just gave it to Brady. Now, if

302
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: you're the Falcons and you're you're the Falcons coaching staff,

303
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: and you're looking back at the tape of that game,

304
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: you're like, the one thing we're not gonna let him do.

305
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: We're not gonna let James White beat us again. But

306
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: how Belichickian would it be to go right back to

307
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: James White and beat him that way again? Try and

308
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: James White one more time. He's done very little this season. Frankly,

309
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: I think we could safely call him a bus this year.

310
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: But the Falcons have always struggle against running backs through

311
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: the air, and compared to the Super Bowl, they gotta

312
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: they gotta fred over things like Brandon Cooks and Rob Gronkowski.

313
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: They didn't have to worry about in the Super Bowl,

314
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: so they got their hands full with other things. Anyway,

315
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: we'll try James White in a repeat performance from the

316
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I like it all right, Scott, I am

317
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: taking the quarterback to Paul Charchiens. Take a chance on me.

318
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 1: I'm taking to Paul Charchiens, take a chance on me.

319
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:32,239
Speaker 1: Quarterback and favorite target, Robert Woods leads the team in targets. Yeah, Cardinals, Cardinals.

320
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: The Cardinals defense has allowed nine touchdowns to watch receivers,

321
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: which is ridiculous. Seven of them went to the number

322
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: two receiver. Granted, Justin Bethel is being benched this week

323
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: for the finally for thirty four year old Traymont Williams.

324
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: So I think Woods can still torch in that game.

325
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: Love him. He's averaging six tarts game over his last four.

326
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: All right, your receiver, I got Za Jones of the

327
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: Bills at home against the Books. Za was my premature

328
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: respect reulation last week. You might remember me from such

329
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: premature speculations as last week. Will Fuller, House, Austin Wild,

330
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: Safarian Jenkins, and Marquis to the Castle Goodwin, who have

331
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: all popped off in recent weeks. So Za Jones will

332
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: this week against the Bucks, who are allowing twenty four targets.

333
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: Seventeen catches, two and thirty yards and one plus touchdowns

334
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 1: per game too opposing wide receivers, that is a lot.

335
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: Jordan Matthews might make his return. He could. I don't

336
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: think that hurts Jones cause either way, Jones has more

337
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 1: targets and Brandon Tate, Andre Homes and Caln Clay combined,

338
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: it's not but he's gonna get a lot of times.

339
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: And Clay is that Charles Clay's brother. It might be

340
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 1: Charles Clay with a wig on. I don't know, but

341
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 1: either both Clays are irrelevant this game. Charles Clay is

342
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: also out. There will be targets for Jones and a

343
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: pass heavy game script on call. All right, well, I

344
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: want to hear more about about the about j Jones

345
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: does nothing at this point of the season, by the way,

346
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: so we we this is the time he needs to

347
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: step up here. They have nobody else to throw too.

348
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: All right, your final take a chance to me guy,

349
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 1: before can get rid of these godforsaken chipmunks. Mohammed Sanu

350
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,719
Speaker 1: returns to take on the worst past defense in the NFL.

351
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 1: Half of the Patriots wide receiver touchdowns allowed have come

352
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: via the slot, and that's Mohmed Sanu is a slot player,

353
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 1: and that was what their starting slot cornerback Eric rowing

354
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 1: the game. He's not gonna play because he's hurt. In

355
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: all probability, they're gonna go to his backup, something called

356
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 1: Johnson Badamosi. Johnson Badamosi's got bad right in his name.

357
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: Mohammed Sanu, You take a chance to me wide receiver.

358
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 1: He's been dropped, long since dropped in the vast majority

359
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 1: of fantasy leagues. Joe end this now, thank you? Did

360
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: you name your kid Johnson? Whif first named Johnson, he's

361
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: already he's already stuck with bad Amosy some of an

362
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: expert on the subject, Jeff Johnson's I'm sure you are firsthand. Uh,

363
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 1: Titans take on the brown Scott Titans. Maybe without DeMarco

364
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 1: Murray and this one and for once, we might be

365
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: in a spot where Derrick Henry owners can just start

366
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 1: him with confidence. What do you think. I think that's

367
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: the only way you can start Henry and with confidence.

368
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 1: The Browns defense is crazy good this year. Somehow, I

369
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 1: never thought I'd be saying that against the run in particular, Yeah,

370
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,199
Speaker 1: against the run. Yeah, they're allowing three point one yards

371
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: per carry. I have C grades on both Murray and Henry,

372
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 1: but if Murray misses, you got to move Henry up

373
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: to up to a B. Murray is the guy that

374
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: gets the work in the passing game. That's where I

375
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: think he can make his hey if he does play.

376
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 1: But I can both CE grades until I know more

377
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: in the passing game. This is what I love. I'm

378
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: giving Marioden a grade. The Browns have given up the

379
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: most touchdowns the quarterbacks, and multiple touchdowns to every quarterback

380
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: they faced. He threw for three d last week. I'm

381
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: not worried about the injury. His receivers Matthews and Decker.

382
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: I'm giving Matthews a B and Decker ce. Matthews was

383
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 1: the most targeted wide receiver for four of the last

384
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,199
Speaker 1: five games. Decker most targeted last week. Matthews seven targets

385
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 1: per game, Decker six targets per game. This is a

386
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: game they can eat each Both lighted up. Sounds like

387
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: Jason mccordy. It popped up on the injury report. He

388
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: might not play. That might be even better for both

389
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: of them. Yes. So the guy like most in this

390
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: offense though, is Delaney Walker. If he goes. If he goes,

391
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 1: that is the question. He's averaging six targets per game.

392
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: The Browns are terrible against tight ends, allowing fifty yards

393
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,360
Speaker 1: or a touchdown in five of the six games. If

394
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: he doesn't go, he pot he didn't practice Thursday and Friday.

395
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 1: If he doesn't go, I don't think he's gonna. I know,

396
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 1: take a look at john Nu Smith. He might be

397
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: a really sneaky play if he doesn't go. I think

398
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 1: he I think I'm absolutely on board with him as

399
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: in a in the tight end waste land that half

400
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: of fantasy owners are in right now, where you're just

401
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: basically flopping trying to find anything from a tight end.

402
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: If Delaney Walker doesn't go, your Sunday morning pick up

403
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: of Jenu Walker, not Johnny Walker. Johnny Smith can be

404
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: can be a a solid solid move for you here.

405
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 1: He's a great dynasty ad right now. Yeah he is.

406
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 1: He's a rookie and Delanney Walkers at the bitter end

407
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: of a lengthy career. Yeah, they like him a lot.

408
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: All right over on the Brown side, Deshon Kaiser was

409
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: somehow Brian's check of chance on me player. Yeah, so

410
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 1: in his passing game, The only guy I like is

411
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: Ricardo Lewis, who has led the team in targets three

412
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: straight games, averaging eight part targets per game only fifty

413
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: four yards per game in all those but Tennessee has

414
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 1: allowed nine different wide receivers to score. So if there's

415
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 1: a guy you want to take a chance on, it's

416
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 1: Ricardo Lewis. I'm giving him a C grade. I'm benching

417
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: both the valvin Na Joeku. I mean Najoko had three

418
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 1: touchdowns and four games, then DeValve scored last week. The

419
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: Browns are only completing five passes a game two tight ends. No,

420
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: I'm out on that Zeo Cruel. I'm benching him because

421
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 1: he's kind of hot garbage, Um, not kind of. He

422
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: is hot. One of the most disappointing players of the year.

423
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: He only has two games over twelve carries and he

424
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: disappears when they're downtown in tendants Tennessee, no running back

425
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,959
Speaker 1: under fifteen carries his top fifty yards on them. So

426
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 1: that out for Crowl Duke. I'm giving to see Duke Johnson.

427
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 1: I'm given to see he had a four game streak

428
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,360
Speaker 1: of forty five yards receiving or more. I think that's

429
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: where his flora is. He's got four games over three receptions.

430
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 1: Uh that that's the only reason I'm giving to see

431
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: his reception floor. Final matchup of this segment is the

432
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 1: Jaguars taking on the Colts. Leonard four Nette is the

433
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,880
Speaker 1: big question mark on this one. Didn't practice all week,

434
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: but says he's gonna play. What do you think says

435
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: he's gonna play with that ankle injury? So you gotta

436
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: play him on your fantasy team. I suppose uh has

437
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,120
Speaker 1: a touchdown in every game, a rush of forty plus

438
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: yards in back to back weeks. He's just an auto

439
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: start if if he's active. If he's inactive obviously mentioned,

440
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: but as from now, you roll with him in a

441
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: sort of a tough matchup on paper. Derrick Henry was

442
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: the first running back to top fifty two yards last

443
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: week against the Colts. But UH four net can certainly

444
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,120
Speaker 1: have a big game like Henry did if he stays

445
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: on the field. If he doesn't, Chris I reason to

446
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: have a pretty good game. That's why he was Scott's

447
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: take a chance of me running back mine? You start

448
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: Ivory either way. Yeah, I'm with you there. You know,

449
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: even if even if four Nett starts, there's so many

450
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 1: ways that Ivory can still end up getting a serviceable

451
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 1: number of touches in this game. I agree. I'm gonna

452
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: spoke there um over the passing game. Not a whole

453
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: lot to talk about. I'm gonna give Alan Hearns a

454
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 1: b though. Uh. The Colts have allowed the fourth most

455
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 1: targets and yards to wide receivers. Hearns has scored in

456
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: three straight against in against Indie and in four or

457
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,400
Speaker 1: five of their career meetings, and uh. In Hearns his career,

458
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: he's a bit of a road warrior. He has scored

459
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 1: twice as many touchdowns on the road, where he also

460
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 1: averages an extra fifteen yards per game nearly sixty per

461
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 1: game on the roads where Hern's better away from Jacksonville.

462
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: I'm putting Mark East Mark eas Lee on the bench.

463
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: He hasn't been practicing this week either with a knee injury. Uh.

464
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: He also hasn't scored a touchdown this season and hasn't

465
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 1: scored in four career meetings with the Colts. So it

466
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,680
Speaker 1: will probably get v d as Invonte Davis if he

467
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: does play, so not like in Mark's Lee this week

468
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: and per usual. I'm not liking Blake Bortles. Uh, he's

469
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: on the bench. Blake Bortles and Jay Cutler are the

470
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: only starting quarterbacks who haven't completed a pass of forty

471
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: plus yards. Quarterbacks, you have Kevin Hogan, Ryan J. Manual

472
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 1: complete a pass the forty plus yards and a half Denver. Yeah,

473
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 1: how about that? No quarterback throwing fewer passes. No starting

474
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: quarterback throwing fewer passes than borders as well? His yards

475
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: for attempt? Is it like six too? It's it's brutal,

476
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: very gruesome. Over to the colts um t Y Hilton

477
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 1: and give him the B. I wanted to give him money,

478
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 1: but I won't. Yeah, I'd be honest, but you're not

479
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 1: gonna let me do to to be or a c B. Okay,

480
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: Jackson's ranked number one against number one ride receivers by

481
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,879
Speaker 1: w oudsiders Jalen Ramsey and a J B A or

482
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: some bad dudes. All right, So where's the good news

483
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: coming for this B ranking? Is it? The one catch

484
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 1: for fifteen yards the last week? Is that the good

485
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 1: news you're gonna give us? Okay, see, you got me

486
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: see bench rmnt crief For the obvious reasons, Jack Doyle

487
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: bench as well. Jacksonville has allowed to tell you that

488
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: in touchdown in half of their games, but no tight

489
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: end has top four catches, Um Jaw, Kobe Brissette. The

490
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: benching continues, and over the running backs, I'll of Frank Corscy,

491
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 1: I kind of just broke he and Marlon mack Down,

492
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: who I also give a sea as might take a

493
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 1: chance of running back in a very good matchup for

494
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: running backs. When we come back, Falcons take on the Patriots.

495
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 1: It's a rematch to the Super Bowl, but lots of

496
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 1: new things coming your way in this matchup. Will tell

497
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: you if there's anybody you don't start in Falcons Patriots

498
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: when we come back. This is Fantasy Football Weekly presented

499
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 1: by Devannies on a Man. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly

500
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 1: on the Fan. Paul Charchie and Brian Johnson Scott Fish

501
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 1: with you. A block of matchups coming and um and

502
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: if we zipped him quickly enough, maybe some phone calls Mike, Brandon,

503
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 1: Pete Brian continue to hold. Falcons take on the Patriots.

504
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 1: Let's start on the Falcon side. Obviously the Super Bowl rematch,

505
00:25:58,200 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 1: you know what happened there, so they're not gonna spend

506
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: a lot of time I'm recapping that, but it feels

507
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: like a get right spot for Matt Ryan, who has

508
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: struggled throughout this season, at least from a fantasy standpoint.

509
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 1: Patriots allowing a league worst three hundred thirty eight passing

510
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 1: yards per game, and it's they've given up two or

511
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: more touchdown passes in every game but one, and they're

512
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 1: gonna be about two of their starting cornerbacks in this game.

513
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: So it's a great opportunity for Matt Ryan. I know

514
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: Julio Jones has been a bitter, bitter disappointment, but this

515
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 1: is the perfect opportunity for him to get well in

516
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: a big, big way. Even if he gets shadow coverage

517
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 1: from Malcolm Butler, which I think he will in this one.

518
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 1: He's not that much of a threat this season. He's

519
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,159
Speaker 1: already been benched once this year. New England allows the

520
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 1: second most wide receiver yards. Five out of six opposing

521
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 1: number one receivers have topped eighty yards. I love Julio

522
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: in this game. Also a grade Davonta Freeman. This is

523
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: a team giving up the most yards to running backs.

524
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: Freeman's my number two running back overall for this week

525
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: B grade and Tevin cole Coleman. This is his best

526
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: game of the year as well, and he's a threat

527
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 1: on the ground threat in the air. This is a

528
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 1: defense allowing the second most receptions per game two running backs.

529
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: Coleman catches a number four plus catches per game on paper.

530
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 1: This again his best matchup of the season. Is probably

531
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 1: his highest grade of B grade. For Tevin Coleman, I

532
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: already told you Mohamed snow Was might take a chance

533
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: on me wide receiver. He's got a B grade. Taylor

534
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: Gabriel finds his way into this conversation with a C grade. Again.

535
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 1: This battered secondary missing two starters and if they're gonna

536
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 1: put their only healthy starter on Julio Jones, I like

537
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: Taylor Gabriel is a sneaky play in this one. Austin

538
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: Hooper has got a starting grade. Patriots a lot of

539
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: tight end to score touchdown in every game but one.

540
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 1: Hooper's targets have gone way up the past couple of weeks.

541
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: He's averaging eight targets over the last two games. Let's

542
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: go to the Patriots side, Bronch and BRONC. That's a

543
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,479
Speaker 1: Brady Gronk combo right there. That's Bronch, Brady and Gronk

544
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: Bronc are automatic A starts every week. We're just gonna

545
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: keep moving on to guys with tougher matchups to dissect,

546
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 1: including Brandon Cooks, who's a B grade here. Falcons have

547
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 1: allowed the sixth fewest receiving yards this season, and that

548
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: will happen when three of your first five opponents of

549
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: the Bears, Dolphins, and Bills. I guess, but Cook Straws

550
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 1: Robert Alfred who has the speed to hang with Cooks

551
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: but none of the skill to hang with Cooks. And

552
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: I still like Cooks here. But let me note this

553
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,880
Speaker 1: cook saw the Falcons regularly when he was a member

554
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: of the Saints, and he had great quarterbacking there too. Right,

555
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 1: He did nothing, nothing against the against the Falcons when

556
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: he was a member of the Saints, So be great

557
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: and Brandon Cooks. Chris Hogan was taken off of the

558
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: injury list, so good news there, and he'll draw Desmond

559
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: Truffon one of the NFL's top twenty corners. According to

560
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: Profile about Focus. Still, Hogan's getting as many targets as

561
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 1: anybody in this offense other than maybe Gronk and ranks

562
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: in the top five and red zone targets as well.

563
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 1: Uh So Chris Hogan B grade here. I gave James

564
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: White as might take a chance of me running back,

565
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: He's got a C grade. I gotta bench Mike Gillisle.

566
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: You guys know, I I still fundamentally like him, but

567
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 1: he's in the doghouse after the fumble last week. And

568
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 1: he's almost completely touchdown dependent. And Atlanta's only allowed two

569
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns this year. That's tied for the third fewers

570
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: in the league. And they haven't given up a running

571
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: back score since we two. So a guy who needs touchdowns,

572
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,719
Speaker 1: that's all trends of work against him. You don't know.

573
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: The Belichick doghouse is sometimes vast. Now. I looked to

574
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: see last time La Garrett Blunt fumbled, what did Belichick do?

575
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: He gave him? He went right back to La Garrett

576
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 1: Blunt gave him tons of carries in that game and

577
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: tons of carries in the next game. So La Garrett

578
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: Blunt wasn't in the doghouse very long with the fumble.

579
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: But who knows. Maybe it's different for Gillisle here. I

580
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: still think there's too much risk. Dan Lewis a big

581
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 1: uptaking usage after Gillisle's fumble last week. But I don't

582
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 1: know again if gillisly is gonna be back and playing

583
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: a major role or not. And Dan Lewis does nothing

584
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: through the air anymore. Used to catch some passes, he

585
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 1: doesn't anymore. That's all James White now, And so I'm

586
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: I'm lukewarm on on Dean Lewis and I've got a

587
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: bench grade on him too. So did you mention that

588
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: Burkehead is supposed to come back as well? Yeah, well,

589
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 1: we still don't know what Birkehead we'll find out. I

590
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:15,959
Speaker 1: think I think he's going to go on this one,

591
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: and that just muddies the waters even further. Let's go

592
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: to our next matchup, Panthers taking on the Bears. Cam

593
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 1: Newton Scott has been feasting on bad secondaries for three

594
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: straight weeks. Now he faces the numbers number seven past

595
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: defense in Chicago. Does Cam Newton revert to the guy

596
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: we saw in the first three weeks of the season.

597
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: Isn't there a middle ground there? I think I think

598
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: the three yards and three total touchdowns he's average over

599
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: the last three is is the high end. I I

600
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna revert all the way back. I

601
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: think that early season was more injury related and getting

602
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: healthy than what I I think Cam Newton is gonna

603
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: gonna find his way here. The Bears have held four

604
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: out of the last five quarterbacks under two five yards.

605
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers had a multi touchdown game, and I think

606
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: Newton is closer to them, so I give him a

607
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: B grade. It's not a good matchup, but I think

608
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 1: he'll be serviceable for his wide receivers. Give Kelvin Benjamin

609
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: an A grade assuming he plays. He practiced yesterday, but

610
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: he has been hurt. He said he's had a little

611
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: resurgence over the last three games. He's averaging nearly six catches,

612
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 1: nearly eight targets, and over ninety yards per game. In

613
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: that stretch. Julio Jones, Mike Evans, Antonio Brown, Jordy Nelson

614
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: all had at least sixty six yards on the Bears,

615
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: and three of those guys scored. So I like Benjamin

616
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 1: in this game exactly if he doesn't, you know, lineup

617
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: fun just because I give him a C grade right now,

618
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: and it's mostly because he's been averaging over eight targets

619
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: a game since greg Olsen left, but he completely disappears

620
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 1: when the Panthers don't score twenty seven. The Bears haven't

621
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: allowed any team over twenty three at home, and the

622
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 1: second the best game. The Bears have allowed to a

623
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: second wide receiver forty six yards no touchdowns on the year,

624
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: so C grade they're mostly on volume. I do like

625
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: Ed Dixon. He's He's been averaging four catches and ninety

626
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 1: one yards over the last three games and Chicago has

627
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 1: allowed three straight tight ends to catch six balls against them.

628
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: Granted was against poor defenses for Dixon in the last couple,

629
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 1: but I I like the opportunity there. B grade for

630
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 1: Dixon In the running game, C grade on Jonathan Stewart,

631
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: He's averaging two point nine yards per carry, which is

632
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: pretty bad. Yeah, only McKinnon his rushed for over seventy

633
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: five yards on the Bears, and that took a fifty

634
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 1: eight yard run. Uh yeah. The bright side is every

635
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: running back that's had twelve carries either had seventy yards

636
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: or a score, so that works in Stewart's favor probably,

637
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: And the Bears have allowed to touchdown in every game

638
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 1: except for the last one this season, which is part

639
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 1: of the reason I give McCaffrey an A grade here.

640
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 1: He has six over six catches and over eight targets

641
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: per game. That's crazy. He's top ten in both those categories.

642
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: And the Bears have allowed at least five receptions to

643
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 1: every running back except for one this year. So yeah,

644
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 1: in every game except for one. It'scuse me going back

645
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: to Benjamin real quick. Ron Rivera is saying he's more

646
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: probable than anything. All right, good bank on that, thank

647
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 1: you riverboat run. Yeah that's yeah, yeah, most yeah, most

648
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: coaches won't give you that kind of information. So we're

649
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 1: happy to hear. We're happy to hear that I missed probable.

650
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: Let us. I love seeing probably questionable, probable a mystery now,

651
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 1: I know. Yeah, Well, and Patriots love that. Anybody else

652
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 1: if we missed anybody, no, no one for the Panthers,

653
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: I'm benching everyone else on the Bear side, I'm benching

654
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: robiskyhren't twenty yards for game come on? His his favorite

655
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: target though, since he came into the game. Since he

656
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: started playing, Zach Miller leads the Bears and targets and touchdowns.

657
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: I know one was from Cohen, but I'm still going

658
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: to count it. Uh. The Panthers defense is allowed four

659
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 1: touchdowns to tight ends in the last two weeks. I'm

660
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 1: giving him a B start just because he's Trobisky's favorite

661
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: target right now. That's you gotta you gotta look at that.

662
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: I'm benching Cohen. His production is dropped just way too

663
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 1: far down. I'm starting Howard with an A grade. He's

664
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: top five in attempts, yards, and touchdowns, and he's had

665
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: at least nineteen touchdowns a game over the last four games.

666
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: The Panthers have a lot of running back to score

667
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: in three the last four games. It's hard to hard

668
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 1: to not give hard in a with that amount of volume. Yeah,

669
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: they're just pounding the running game, which is the right

670
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 1: thing to do. Let's protect our rookie quarterback, you know,

671
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 1: let's not ask him to go out and win games.

672
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: I like that. I like that angle final matchup of

673
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 1: the second segment, excuse me, Buccaneers taking on the Bills.

674
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 1: This is a This is a tough Bills defense and

675
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: against the run and the pass, and they're at home.

676
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: This is gonna be there's gonna be a tricky one.

677
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 1: And Jamis Winston comes into this game, gimp, how heartbroken

678
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 1: argue that there's no stew Beard revenge narrative here. I

679
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,319
Speaker 1: know I would have loved that it was looking that

680
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: way early in the week. But what Winston is slated

681
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: to start this one with the shoulder injury, I got

682
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:50,799
Speaker 1: him on the bench. I'm very worried about him in

683
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,800
Speaker 1: a very bad matchup. Buffalo is a great pass defense.

684
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: They've only allowed two passing touchdowns all the year. They

685
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: have two interceptions and four of their last four the

686
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 1: last five games, So I'm skeptical. With that shoulder and

687
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: j Ed Winston on the bench here, I'd rather go

688
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: with DeShawn Kaiser personally. No, no, no, all right onto

689
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: uh Winston's receivers. Mike Evans still gonna give him an

690
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 1: a Buffalo was only. Buffalo has only allowed two wide

691
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 1: receiver touchdowns, but Damarrius Thomas had six catches for ninety

692
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: eight yards, A J. Green blew up for seven catches

693
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,840
Speaker 1: on nine yards and a touchdown, and even Kelvin Benjamin

694
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: had six for seventy seven in Week two when Cam

695
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: was pretty garbage. So you can start Evans with confidence.

696
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,240
Speaker 1: Not so much for de Sean Jackson. I just mentioned

697
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: the two wide receiver touchdowns allowed by the Bills. That

698
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:39,280
Speaker 1: puts Jackson on the bench as his Cameron Braid. Buffalo

699
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 1: has not allowed he tight end touchdown and not one

700
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 1: opposing tight end has topped fifty yards against the Bills.

701
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: It's really Mike Evans or busted in the passing game

702
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 1: for me this week. Uh. Doug Martin not a great

703
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: matchup for him either, Like you said, charge he gets

704
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 1: a sea here. Uh. He has scored in both games

705
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: since returning from suspension. But but but Buffalo is allowing

706
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,799
Speaker 1: under three point eight yards per carry. No running back

707
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 1: has topped sixty yards against them, So uh yeah, don't

708
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: be too excited about Martin this week. But he should

709
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 1: see the most volume out of that backfield over to

710
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 1: the Bills. I'm gonna give la Shawn McCoy an a

711
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: here on a quota stat from Graham Barfield on Twitter.

712
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: He said, when the Bills are favorite at home, um,

713
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 1: Shady's averaging over a hundred and twenty yards, over hundred

714
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 1: twenty rushing yards and one and a half Russian touchdowns

715
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: per game. They builds our home favorites in this game.

716
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 1: So I like McCoy here, I want to stress something

717
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 1: we said I believe last week, go by Shady, Now

718
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: go get him. It's never gonna be cheaper than right now.

719
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 1: His price is gonna skyrockets price is gonna skyrocket. You

720
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 1: bet um a couple more starters from Buffalo Tyrod Taylor,

721
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 1: I'll give a c um. I initially wrote no Jordan Matthews,

722
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: but he sounds like he might play. But no Charles Clay,

723
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 1: who was his favorite target. Uh, Tampa Bay could still

724
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 1: be without both starting safeties. They are ranked thirty first

725
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: against the past by Football Outsiders d v o A.

726
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,799
Speaker 1: So Taylor is startable. I guess Jordan Matthews is as well,

727
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 1: because A Jones was might take a chance to me

728
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,360
Speaker 1: wide receiver that that stays even if Matthews is active.

729
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,240
Speaker 1: This is just a great matchup for wide receivers. Also

730
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,839
Speaker 1: a good matchup for Nico Leary backup tight end who

731
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 1: will start? Now another deep sleeper tight end you can

732
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:12,839
Speaker 1: just pick up and plugs. I almost put him as

733
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,879
Speaker 1: my take. Coom Over's a Jones. I might be liking

734
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 1: it a little more. Troy Nicholas and Rhett Elson hit

735
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 1: paydirt against Tanda Bay. So yes, I saw more than

736
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 1: three targets for the first time in his career. Last week, Uh,

737
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 1: he had six. He caught five for fifty four against Cincinnati,

738
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: which was a bad matchup. So Buffalo throws o their

739
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,920
Speaker 1: tight ends more than of the time that no one

740
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,839
Speaker 1: else's You got the wrong guy. I know you take

741
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 1: a chance of me, receiver. Alright, the tight end, get

742
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: the official switch? Is that mug? Alright, we're calling it

743
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: right now. Appreciate that it's a better call. Thanks, All done?

744
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 1: All right, let's work in a couple of phone calls.

745
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: Ryan is in Portland, Oregon. Hi, Ryan, Hi, guys, thanks

746
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:02,319
Speaker 1: for taking my call. Um, I have a couple of

747
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: questions real quick. Um, I know you were talking about

748
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: de Marc Moray. I have two running backs right now

749
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,919
Speaker 1: that I'm playing, Carlos Tide and Adrian Peterson. But I'm

750
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 1: I have Mike Gilliesley on my bench. I haven't heard

751
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 1: you talked about Adrian Peterson. I got joining the to

752
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 1: the show a little late. Um, well we haven't mentioned.

753
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: You haven't missed anthing. We just haven't gotten to that

754
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 1: matchup yet. Okay, okay, So I was gonna run with

755
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,400
Speaker 1: them as my running backs because de Marco Murray is

756
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 1: my only other one and uh, and I figured those

757
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 1: are the two best options. But I have Brandon Cooks

758
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: and Michael Thomas that I'm starting that are obvious starts.

759
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 1: But I have my flex position that I'm torn at. Basically,

760
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: I have um the Sean Jackson, Jackson, Pierre Garstone, uh,

761
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,400
Speaker 1: Mike Gisley or de Marco Murray. He's healthy alright, So anyway,

762
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 1: distill this down now. I got question here. By the way,

763
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 1: if anybody wants to know why we in Lightning Round

764
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 1: do one question between two players, this is why we

765
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: do it that way in Lightning Round, I got it

766
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 1: for you, man, you're looking for a flex between those four.

767
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: For me, it's Garson. I think he's got the best matchup.

768
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: The Cowboys have allowed what eleven touchdowns over the passing

769
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,520
Speaker 1: touchdowns over the last four games. Garson's getting ten targets

770
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: per game. It's Garson. For me, He's He's easily the

771
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:29,240
Speaker 1: safest and maybe even the best ceiling. Thanks for tuning

772
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 1: in from Portland, Ryan, to appreciate your long distance dedication

773
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:39,720
Speaker 1: to not to go Casey case him on the whole bit. Mike, Hello, Hello, Um,

774
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: I just got a simple Lightning round question Aaron j

775
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 1: Aric Jones or the Dark Book. Oh Man, Darkness got Seattle.

776
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,240
Speaker 1: That's not a right matchup, Aaron Jones, though he didn't

777
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: get a ton of run with the time on gunning

778
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 1: back in the mix. They were also keep in mind

779
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,840
Speaker 1: that in fairness, the Packers, right, you know, everything's going

780
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: on side down tackles get knocked out of the game.

781
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: They're down by a bunch of points. They gotta throw.

782
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: I think Packers would love to establish the rout if

783
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: they can absolutely maybe slow down breezes passing. Yeah, I'll

784
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 1: lean Jones slightly over dark Or even though dark one

785
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 1: might get more touches than Jones, Jones might do more

786
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: with them in a better matchup. Thank you, Mike. We

787
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: rarely get three calls into this into this segment, but

788
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: that's great. Brandon, Hello, ll right, Scott, could have you

789
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 1: on the show again. Um, I found myself in a

790
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,919
Speaker 1: situatement that others probably do as well. I played Lynch

791
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:39,279
Speaker 1: and my appointments Cooper. Yeah, so just a couple of

792
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,720
Speaker 1: lineing round questions and standard and looking for higher ceiling

793

Speaker 1: mixing or chimera. M hm, Well I think mixing, Yeah,

794
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: I think mix in two and as a higher ceiling, Yeah, okay,

795
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: and then same in a PPR nal caber Cetarian Jenkins.

808
00:41:53,160 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 1: Week seven dominations Fans. Question Number one is Amari Cooper back?

809
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: Scott Sure, yes, kinda. I think this is who Cooper

810
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: is gonna be. You know, he's gonna have big games

811
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,400
Speaker 1: and not not big games, but he's still had drops,

812
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 1: he still leads the NFL and drops. Um, He's gonna

813
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 1: have up in ups and downs. But I think he's

814
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: the kind of guy that behind the scenes he did

815
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 1: the you know, squeaky wheel thing and we didn't hear

816
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 1: about it. So they played him all over the field

817
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 1: the slot, which he hadn't done. They're gonna try to

818
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 1: get him the ball more. I'm not he's not a superstud,

819
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: but he's back a little bit, all right. He's the

820
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: same as he ever was. Here's just a blow up

821
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,360
Speaker 1: game that they happened to pop up every now and again.

822
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 1: His first notable one was Week fifteen in his rookie year,

823
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,000
Speaker 1: he had six catches for a hundred and twenty yards

824
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 1: and two touchdowns. That was last year against Tampa Bay.

825
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,240
Speaker 1: He had twelve for one seventy three and one. Thursday

826
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 1: Night was clearly his biggest game of his career. But

827
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 1: so take those three games away I just mentioned, and

828
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 1: then starting with the Week fifteen game, and he was

829
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,879
Speaker 1: a rookie, Cooper es scored five touchdowns in twenty three

830
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: games outside of those three games. He is horribly inconsistent,

831
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,880
Speaker 1: so I think he remains that way. So I'm gonna say,

832
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: uh no, he's not bad because he didn't go anywhere.

833
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:17,720
Speaker 1: Nothing has changed. He entered Marie Cooper entered Week seven

834
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 1: as wide receiver eight six, and right now he's wide

835
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 1: receiver thirty. That's what That's what that game did for him,

836
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:28,879
Speaker 1: not for people who left him on exactly exactly which,

837
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,319
Speaker 1: by the way, for anybody left him if you left

838
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 1: him on the bench, don't feel badly that you did that.

839
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:39,919
Speaker 1: You made the rational decision of of the available information

840
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,279
Speaker 1: that we had. By the way, real quick, he could

841
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,239
Speaker 1: have broken the single game receiving record, I think on

842
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:45,840
Speaker 1: Thursday night, if you didn't have those like three or

843
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:49,239
Speaker 1: four drops. Yeah, it is possible, um. And part of

844
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: the reason we didn't see necessarily see that coming was

845
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,959
Speaker 1: he had been playing almost entirely on the right side

846
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,840
Speaker 1: of the field. Craft You've been playing seventy of his

847
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 1: snaps on the left side of the field. They just

848
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: flip flopped it in that game. They've all though those

849
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: almost all those those big Cooper catches all started with

850
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 1: him on the left side of the field where he

851
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 1: didn't have Marcus Peters. And that was not how they

852
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,759
Speaker 1: had been handling their receivers going into the game. And

853
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 1: Tony Romeo talked about it all night that they were

854
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 1: just daring the Raiders to throw the Chiefs sold out

855
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:19,920
Speaker 1: to stop the runs. So yeah, no one saw that

856
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 1: coming either. Uh. Mary Cooper was a one thousand yard

857
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 1: receiver in both of his first two years, and I

858
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 1: think there was a temptation to feel like maybe they

859
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,439
Speaker 1: had lost some faith in him. But he's on pace

860
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 1: for the exact same number of targets that he had

861
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 1: last year, which is a whopping one hundred thirty two targets,

862
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: which is a ton. And he's actually on pace now

863
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,239
Speaker 1: for a career high in touchdowns with seven. So I

864
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,440
Speaker 1: think he is the same guy that he was before.

865
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 1: To Brian's point, but he got the answer wrong. The

866
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 1: same guy was before, the guy we were starting every week.

867
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 1: We're gonna keep starting Mary Cooper. And yes, mostly he's back.

868
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 1: Oh wait, this is now me. Hold on question number two.

869
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:04,839
Speaker 1: Should Marshawn Lynch owners just drop him? Bryan, Well, this

870
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 1: is a hot question. It's a tough one one. Let's

871
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,960
Speaker 1: look aheaded Marshawn Lynch's next four weeks. We're looking at

872
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 1: a suspension by and the Broncos in three the next

873
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 1: four weeks. That's not good for Lynch. Not so when

874
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: you wanna rotting on your bench. But there is some

875
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,879
Speaker 1: beast mode left and Lynch um. According to the RB

876
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:25,240
Speaker 1: Scout on Twitter, uh, Lynch is bottom three in yards

877
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 1: per carry before the first potential tackle point, which means

878
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 1: his offensive line is doing him no favors. How they've

879
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: been shockingly bad. Yeah, they were projected to be maybe

880
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,360
Speaker 1: the top unit in the league. Um, they've always been

881
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,600
Speaker 1: a better pass blocking unit than run blocking unit. But

882
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,399
Speaker 1: they're still good run blocking, right, And it's just not

883
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: it is not coming together. But Lynch is still getting

884
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 1: stuff done on his own. He is top eight in

885
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 1: yards per carry after the first potential tackle point, meaning

886
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 1: you know, he's doing a lot of work on his own.

887
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:52,799
Speaker 1: And so if this line can get it together, I

888
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:54,680
Speaker 1: still think there's some hope for Lynch down the line.

889
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 1: But I will tell you this, I'm not dropping him,

890
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 1: but I'm doing everything I can to get Jalen Richard

891
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 1: and both and DeAndre Way on my roster to fully handle.

892
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 1: Are you previewing uh taking Oh no, I got you? Okay,

893
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 1: all right, Scott. No, they shouldn't drop him. I mean

894
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,960
Speaker 1: he's kind of he was on pace for about what

895
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 1: we thought, right. Latavious Murray had a carries last year.

896
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 1: He was on pace for two four before he got ejected.

897
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 1: He's taking up fifty five to sixty percent of the

898
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 1: team's running attempts. I know he's out next week, but

899
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 1: you know he's going to be that back. He's going

900
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 1: to be a guy you can flex in good matchups,

901
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 1: and he's going to be a guy that you might

902
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 1: want to bench at times. But you shouldn't drop him yet. Yeah,

903
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: your guys, I think you guys have sucked this out

904
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 1: pretty well. I think the only scenario here that leaves

905
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,799
Speaker 1: Lynch without any fantasy value would want to actually drop

906
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: him out right is if somehow like Richard and Washington

907
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 1: go berserk at Buffalo, which we don't think is going

908
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: to happen, and and then you know, they decided to

909
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: somehow shift the percentages around. But I don't think that's

910
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 1: gonna happen here. The the expectation, I think they just

911
00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,839
Speaker 1: gotta you don't know your expectations. He's a thirteen carry

912
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 1: a game guy, not a twenty carry game guy. And

913
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: he's not going to be the Bell Kyle. And if

914
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,399
Speaker 1: you have the expectations of what he can get done

915
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,880
Speaker 1: on thirteen carries, which seems to be in the fifties,

916
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 1: sixty yard wheelhouse and a you know, a chance at

917
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 1: a touchdown if they get inside the five. That's Marshawn

918
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: Lynch Davann's hot question Number three? Are you buying low

919
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: on Martevis Bryant? Are you just glad you didn't draft him? Scott?

920
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 1: Is there a middle ground? I know this is such

921
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,440
Speaker 1: a tough Christian. I'm not really buying law On and

922
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:34,080
Speaker 1: my noise. Got matchups against the Colt Sitan, Titans, Packers,

923
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 1: and Patriots coming up, Which are you know, good matchups? Uh?

924
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 1: I'm also I'm fine with drafting, and when I did,

925
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 1: I just don't think this offense is prolific enough as

926
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 1: it was when Bell and Brown and Martevis Ben could

927
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:51,960
Speaker 1: support all of them. Uh So, I guess I'm I mean,

928
00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 1: I'm more in the Which one am I buying low

929
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: or not? I guess I'm buying low? Are for those matchups?

930
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 1: What the hell? I'm not. I'm not happy about it,

931
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 1: but I am all right. Brian. Remember how good Martevis

932
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,440
Speaker 1: Bryant was when he was a rookie. Hundred plus yards

933
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 1: and or at least one touchdown in eleven of his

934
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 1: first seventeen games. Insane That he missed all of of course,

935
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 1: um because of suspension. He has kept his nose clean

936
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 1: since then, but his hands haven't been very busy this season.

937
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 1: He has top three catches just once all year. But

938
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,360
Speaker 1: the Steelers have played a lot of bad teams that

939
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 1: hadn't scored a lot of points. Brown's, Jets, Jaguars, stuff

940
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:33,640
Speaker 1: like that. So there resinutely been a shootout from Pittsburgh.

941
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:37,759
Speaker 1: So just because of the talent is there. He's maybe

942
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:40,240
Speaker 1: a little rusty still. I will buy low on Briant,

943
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,880
Speaker 1: but very, very very low. I've actually seen him dropped

944
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 1: in a few weeks, so I will sort of pick

945
00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 1: him up for free. Uh, you're buying low on Martevis Bryant.

946
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,399
Speaker 1: And you know buying low isn't easy, right, I mean,

947
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:52,279
Speaker 1: you know, because we all want to buy low and

948
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: sell high. But to buy low I means you've gotta

949
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,680
Speaker 1: you're buying a player who hasn't produced, or you wouldn't

950
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 1: be buying low. So you've got to be able to say,

951
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 1: all right, I can project that things are going to

952
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:04,200
Speaker 1: get better. And here's why they would likely will. The

953
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: schedule has been brutal for Pittsburgh. Two ways. He's played

954
00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 1: against six defenses so far that range somewhere between good

955
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:17,200
Speaker 1: and great. Let's sen to the defenses they've played Minnesota, Baltimore, Jacksonville,

956
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 1: Kansas City, Chicago, Cincinnati. Right and after the bye week

957
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 1: in week nine, as you mentioned, Colts and Titans and

958
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 1: Packers are coming up. Then get this if you want

959
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 1: to have the easiest possible runway in the second half

960
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,879
Speaker 1: of the season. In the final eight games second half

961
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 1: of the season, Steelers are on the road two times,

962
00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 1: two times there at home six out of the last

963
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:48,239
Speaker 1: eight games. And we all know where it has been

964
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 1: great at home? Where does he stink on the road?

965
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 1: So the home road matchups are going to bend entirely

966
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 1: towards the home once they get to the halfway point

967
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 1: of the season. We are buying low. I'm Davis Bryant.

968
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:08,040
Speaker 1: Hot question number four. One week into the post Adrian

969
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: Peterson era, the advantage goes to Mark Ingram over Alvin Kamara.

970
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:18,360
Speaker 1: But from this point forward, who will score more points

971
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:22,520
Speaker 1: between the two? Bryan, we're talking PPR. I take it

972
00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:25,879
Speaker 1: half point, half point? Okay, alright? Last week, Yeah, Ingram

973
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 1: had a great game, um, but that was only the

974
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:31,360
Speaker 1: second time in his last thirty seven games that he

975
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 1: saw at least twenty carries, and in those thirty seven

976
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:37,359
Speaker 1: games he only got to eighteen carries six times. So

977
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:39,839
Speaker 1: there will be goods on the horizon for Ingram. Because

978
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,400
Speaker 1: New Orleans doesn't run the ball a lot only about

979
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,560
Speaker 1: of the time. I like Kamara more in the passing game.

980
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 1: The Saints do throw a ton, especially to running backs.

981
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,239
Speaker 1: H New Orleans running backs have caught the second most

982
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: passes despite already having their by this season. Um, they

983
00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 1: played five games. The Chiefs have played seven. Uh you

984
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:01,479
Speaker 1: know with Cream Munton Charter took West. The Saints running

985
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: backs have a lot more catches in the Chiefs running

986
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 1: backs do. So I just see Kamara being more consistent

987
00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:09,280
Speaker 1: because of the past volume. So I'm gonna say album Kamara. Wow.

988
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 1: I think it's Ingram, and I think he gets the

989
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 1: goal line work. He still gets some passing work, and

990
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: he gets most of the between the tackles work. I

991
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,000
Speaker 1: think Kamara is going to be flex worthy a lot

992
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,920
Speaker 1: of weeks, maybe you know, start worthy most weeks. But

993
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 1: I think mark Ingram is is nearing the point where

994
00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,359
Speaker 1: he's unbeneable going forward. The emotional side of me wants

995
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 1: it to be Kamara because he's lightning in a bottle

996
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,479
Speaker 1: and he's so fun to watch and is just human

997
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:37,960
Speaker 1: highlight plays. But the logical side of me says it's Ingram.

998
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:41,760
Speaker 1: Peterson yielded seven carries per game and only one target

999
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:45,880
Speaker 1: per game, and Ingram's the carries guy. Camara is the

1000
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 1: receiving guy. That's a six touch advantage for Ingram right there.

1001
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 1: Ingram is gonna get the goal line work, and that's

1002
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:54,680
Speaker 1: the other big X factor. We still want touchdowns more

1003
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:58,879
Speaker 1: than anything else in fantasy football. We still want touchdowns.

1004
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 1: We saw the upside Camara gives in the passing game

1005
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:05,319
Speaker 1: two games ago when he had eleven receptions. He had

1006
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:07,160
Speaker 1: two last week, so those are gonna be up and down.

1007
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 1: Ingram still involved in the passing game as well, so

1008
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,360
Speaker 1: it's not like he's not getting any and Camaro is

1009
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:15,319
Speaker 1: taking them all. But Ingram has the other advantages that

1010
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,040
Speaker 1: Camara doesn't have, even though I think Kimara is a

1011
00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 1: way more electrifying running back right now, Devon's hot question

1012
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:27,719
Speaker 1: number five, who is the single most important handcuff and

1013
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 1: fantasy football? Scott, I'm still going to get this one

1014
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 1: wrong all right, I'm gonna go with Matt Breida. I

1015
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 1: think once Carlos, if Carlos Hide does go down, he's

1016
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:38,920
Speaker 1: averaging over four yards per carry. He's showing he can

1017
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,520
Speaker 1: get it done in the passing game. Ten catches for

1018
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 1: sixty one yards over the five games, and Shanahan said

1019
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,880
Speaker 1: he weirdly weirdly says that there's no not much difference

1020
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 1: between the two. I think he could be a league

1021
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:55,840
Speaker 1: winner if Hide goes down. I got Jimmy Garoppolo because

1022
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 1: the top quarterback tier took a hit with the loss

1023
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:00,720
Speaker 1: of Aaron Rodgers. And if you are a Tom Brady

1024
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:04,320
Speaker 1: owner who has looked pretty bad by the way behind

1025
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: a pretty bad offensive line, I don't know how much

1026
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:08,440
Speaker 1: longer you can keep this up. You you need to handcuffed.

1027
00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:11,120
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. Do you have any hope moving forward in

1028
00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 1: the fantasy playoffs if something happens Tom Brady? And uh yeah, Basically,

1029
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 1: you just gotta If you're invested in that Patriots offense,

1030
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 1: you gotta stay invested. So I say, Jimmy garoppolos in

1031
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 1: that he was my premature speculation guy last week. Yeah,

1032
00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:25,160
Speaker 1: it is a good pick and a cross my mind,

1033
00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 1: but it's not the right pick. The correct answer is

1034
00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:32,759
Speaker 1: Chris Ivory. Leonard four Nette is second in rushing attempts

1035
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL one hundred thirty already, and he's one

1036
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:40,080
Speaker 1: of the top three runners in almost every scoring system

1037
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:42,279
Speaker 1: right and he's the only player with the touchdown every game.

1038
00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,360
Speaker 1: So four net has been great. No team runs the

1039
00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,399
Speaker 1: ball more than Jacksonville. So if four Nette goes out now,

1040
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:49,480
Speaker 1: and by the way, you know he's hurt now, so

1041
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,759
Speaker 1: he's already hurt right now, and he's a workhorse back,

1042
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 1: Ivory would slot right into that and they would continue

1043
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: running fifty two percent of the time thirty four times

1044
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:01,320
Speaker 1: per game, both NFL highs. And they're not going to

1045
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:04,560
Speaker 1: suddenly go into a Blake Bortles lead offense because Blake

1046
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 1: Bortles stinks. It will continue to be Chris Ivory. You

1047
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 1: will have the potential of a top ten running back

1048
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:15,600
Speaker 1: in Chris Ivory should anything happen to Leonard four Netti.

1049
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:17,799
Speaker 1: By the way, one bonus point I'll give to this

1050
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:21,040
Speaker 1: on Ivory stylistically very similar to four NET. So they

1051
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 1: don't have to change up the way they do business

1052
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:27,360
Speaker 1: if they have to change from four net to Chris Ivory.

1053
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 1: Let's work in a matchup Cardinals taking on the Rams.

1054
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,160
Speaker 1: This is a London game, so I assume it's the

1055
00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:38,400
Speaker 1: early start London bit right where it's gonna be. It's

1056
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:41,640
Speaker 1: in late start alright, as by the way they all

1057
00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 1: should be starting these early games. Is stupid because it's

1058
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:47,120
Speaker 1: by the way, it's it's even early there. I mean,

1059
00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:49,400
Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong with a noon start here and a

1060
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 1: six o'clock start in in London. So I don't know

1061
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 1: why they feel like they got to have a three

1062
00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:58,520
Speaker 1: o'clock start in London so that people, especially on the

1063
00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:00,600
Speaker 1: West coast of got like six thirty start time. It's

1064
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:05,839
Speaker 1: ridiculous anyway, Cardinals Rams Scott. Yeah. So in the passing game,

1065
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 1: I'm giving Carson Palmer a B grade, and mostly it's

1066
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,680
Speaker 1: because the hesitancy with what happened once Peterson was in

1067
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:14,840
Speaker 1: town last week. He was averaging forty five attempts in

1068
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,600
Speaker 1: over three yards per game through just twenty two times

1069
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:20,239
Speaker 1: last week. Saved you with three touchdowns, but that's not

1070
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,759
Speaker 1: going to be common with that kind of volume. The

1071
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,439
Speaker 1: Rams are allowing two yards per game over the last

1072
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:27,880
Speaker 1: four so so maybe there's some opportunity for Palmer to

1073
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:30,399
Speaker 1: light it up a little bit, but I think they're

1074
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:34,319
Speaker 1: gonna run all day this week. So so I'm giving

1075
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:37,080
Speaker 1: Palmer a B grade, and I'm not too in love

1076
00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:40,239
Speaker 1: with it. Fitzgerald's in A grade. I mean obviously, double

1077
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:42,919
Speaker 1: digit targets in five or six games. He's he's top

1078
00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:46,920
Speaker 1: three and targets and catches. John Brown when he plays

1079
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 1: when he's healthy, which he is this week, he's averaging

1080
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:53,240
Speaker 1: nearly seven targets per game, and he's scored in consecutive weeks.

1081
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:58,200
Speaker 1: I know the Rams secondary has held down uh second receivers. Yeah,

1082
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 1: nobody has won sixty five yards. That's why John Brown

1083
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,520
Speaker 1: gets a C grade for me. See, I don't like

1084
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:06,560
Speaker 1: the whole John Brown, Drawn Brown, J. J. Nelson just

1085
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 1: so much clutter other than Fitzgerald operating, so I just

1086
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:15,319
Speaker 1: I tend to avoid them all. Yeah. So yeah, John

1087
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,840
Speaker 1: Brown is second in targets every single game that he starts,

1088
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 1: so I give him a little bit optimism there. Ellington

1089
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:24,600
Speaker 1: he's he's a bench obviously, I mean, he's questionable and

1090
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,880
Speaker 1: likely to miss the game. So it's basically just Adrian

1091
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 1: Peterson in the running game against the worst run defense

1092
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:33,560
Speaker 1: in the NFL, allowing a hundred and seventy five total

1093
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown in a half per game to

1094
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:38,839
Speaker 1: running backs. Peterson looked great. Eleven and m carries were

1095
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,360
Speaker 1: over five yards last week. He's an A grade for me.

1096
00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:45,719
Speaker 1: On the ram side, Jared Goff was charged to take

1097
00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:47,960
Speaker 1: a chance on me player, Woods was my take a

1098
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:50,400
Speaker 1: chance on me player. So let's move over to the

1099
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: other wide receivers. Watkins, I'm giving a C grade. It

1100
00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 1: sounds like Patrick Peterson is gonna play and Watkins is

1101
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 1: third on the team in targets, which is weird. I know. Yeah, Bryant,

1102
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:02,239
Speaker 1: Jeff Free, Garson, Hilton, they averaged thirty two yards a

1103
00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:04,359
Speaker 1: game and only one of them scored. It's a tough,

1104
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 1: tough matchup. So why even think pedigree? The pedigree of

1105
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 1: not producing how many great games of Sammy Watkins watched

1106
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 1: a year four year Career'll throw it out into MARII

1107
00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 1: Cooper game and we'll all be flushed next week. Uh

1108
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,000
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup, I'm giving a C grade. He's going against

1109
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:28,160
Speaker 1: Tyron Matthew, who is not allowed over fifty five yards

1110
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 1: to any receiver this week or this season. Uh he did.

1111
00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:34,440
Speaker 1: I mean, Nelson Agilar and the slot had ninety three yards,

1112
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:37,200
Speaker 1: but seventy two of that came against a safety blitz

1113
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:39,040
Speaker 1: where Matthew wasn't on him, So I'm not going to

1114
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 1: count that. Uh. I give him a C grade because

1115
00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:44,160
Speaker 1: he is second on the team and targets, and it

1116
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 1: is a good It is a good matchup for wide

1117
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:50,000
Speaker 1: receivers and quarterbacks. Uh. In the running game, Todd Gurley,

1118
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:53,120
Speaker 1: he's top the Cardinals, the top five against running backs.

1119
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:56,439
Speaker 1: But for me, Todd Gurley isn't benchable. He's had over

1120
00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 1: ninety five yards or a touchdown in every single game.

1121
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,600
Speaker 1: I'm ben him an A grade and I just don't care.

1122
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,640
Speaker 1: I like that and A grade and I don't care.

1123
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 1: Seahawks take on the Giants. Brian Funny how you always

1124
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:12,280
Speaker 1: get these Giants matchups. Seahawks take on the on the Giants.

1125
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:17,280
Speaker 1: We've got some question about who the starting running back

1126
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 1: b for the Seattle Seahawks. What do you think? I

1127
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:23,320
Speaker 1: don't know what to think about the Seattle backfield. Really,

1128
00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:25,800
Speaker 1: it's a good matchup. It is a good matchup, isn't it.

1129
00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,720
Speaker 1: The Giants are seven against the run by football outsiders.

1130
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,640
Speaker 1: But I just can't make sense of this clown college backfield.

1131
00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 1: Eddie Lacy and Thomas Rawls each got ten touches in

1132
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 1: Seattle's last game. Uh, nothing to report from them. The

1133
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 1: play count, though, was two to one Rawls. I believe

1134
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,360
Speaker 1: all right. I guess I would lean him then, but

1135
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 1: based on that set charge, thank you, I'll give him

1136
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 1: the sea over Lacey. Uh, this is kind of really

1137
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:52,400
Speaker 1: likes to wait and see a situation between these two. Um,

1138
00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:54,280
Speaker 1: there is some hope for the pass catching backs, and

1139
00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:56,840
Speaker 1: you think you would be J D mckissic, but scratch

1140
00:58:56,920 --> 00:59:02,520
Speaker 1: that C J processes. He's back. He's back, and um,

1141
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 1: I wish I talked about the end of the show.

1142
00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:05,640
Speaker 1: But he's the guy you might want to add right

1143
00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:07,600
Speaker 1: now because he looked like he could run the He

1144
00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:11,160
Speaker 1: looked like a three down back last year. Darryl Bevil

1145
00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:13,680
Speaker 1: believes he can be. I saw him almost empowered. Durtability

1146
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:15,840
Speaker 1: is a concern, but there are lots of concerns with

1147
00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:20,600
Speaker 1: the Seattle back. I don't know. I'm not starting process.

1148
00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:23,280
Speaker 1: I might give him a C, but not not until

1149
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:24,720
Speaker 1: I see what he can do. But you might be

1150
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:25,880
Speaker 1: a guy you want to add if you have a

1151
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:27,800
Speaker 1: spot to burn. Um, let's go to the passing game.

1152
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:29,840
Speaker 1: I gotta flip my page back over here. Russell Wilson,

1153
00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,120
Speaker 1: you gonna give him a ce. Uh. Suppose a tough

1154
00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:34,800
Speaker 1: matchup on the road in New Jersey. But Jameis Winston,

1155
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:37,760
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers and Matthew Stafford through for multiple touchdowns against

1156
00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,800
Speaker 1: against the Giants, who haven't faced the running throughout a

1157
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 1: quarterback yet. So Wilson will add that wrinkle obviously. Uh.

1158
00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:46,440
Speaker 1: He has eight total touchdowns over his last three games.

1159
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,840
Speaker 1: By the way, he's pretty hot. Doug Baldwin reluctant. I'm

1160
00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:52,600
Speaker 1: gonna give him a b Uh. Dominique Rodgers Camarady makes

1161
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 1: his return, We'll see a lot of ball to win

1162
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:58,080
Speaker 1: in the slot, Um. Golden Tate struggled from the slot

1163
00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 1: four catches for twenty five yards, keenan in four for

1164
01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:03,040
Speaker 1: sixty seven. So there is a cause for concern with Balden.

1165
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:05,480
Speaker 1: But you gotta roll them out this week. I'm benching

1166
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,320
Speaker 1: Paul Richardson and Tyler Lockett, the only wide receivers have

1167
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,960
Speaker 1: success against the Giants. For like Mike Evans into Mary's Thomas,

1168
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:13,680
Speaker 1: these guys are not them. Jimmy Graham, though not on

1169
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:16,040
Speaker 1: the bench. Gonna give him Jimmy Graham this week. The

1170
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,000
Speaker 1: abuse of opposing tight ends continued for the Giants last week.

1171
01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 1: Sadly A J. Derby wasn't the one to do it,

1172
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:23,680
Speaker 1: but Denver tight ends did combine for four catches fifty

1173
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:26,000
Speaker 1: eight yards in a touchdown, and New York has allowed

1174
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:28,720
Speaker 1: seven tight end touchdowns in six games. Crazy Graham is

1175
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:32,600
Speaker 1: fully healthy. It's all systems go for Jimmy Um. Speaking

1176
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,280
Speaker 1: at tight ends, the guy said you should drop last week,

1177
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:39,440
Speaker 1: I said, do not. Ram came through against Denver. I

1178
01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:41,680
Speaker 1: think he'd come through against Ie Like. I don't think

1179
01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:44,880
Speaker 1: anybody saw that Denver game coming, right. I that was

1180
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:49,480
Speaker 1: a is That was a shocking performance, squad. Yeah, even

1181
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:51,280
Speaker 1: you did not see that coming. I turned it off

1182
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:54,760
Speaker 1: because I was so upset they were winning. See Giants fans,

1183
01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:59,040
Speaker 1: That's what happened. Yeah you do want the first pick?

1184
01:00:59,120 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 1: I do? Yeah? Uh? Anyway, Evan Ingram Uh. The Giants

1185
01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:05,560
Speaker 1: throw the ball six of the time. Angram the seventh

1186
01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 1: among tight ends and target percentage overall. He's second in

1187
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:11,280
Speaker 1: targets among tight ends over the last four weeks. Seattle

1188
01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 1: is allowing five catches sixty yards per game to tight ends.

1189
01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:15,560
Speaker 1: So that's a safe loloord for Angram in this one

1190
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 1: for me, and I'll start Sterling Shepherd if I'm really

1191
01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 1: in a pinch as well. Randall Cobb is the only

1192
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:22,560
Speaker 1: real threat Seattle has seen from the slot. He had

1193
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:25,040
Speaker 1: nine catches for eighty five yards just a couple of

1194
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,600
Speaker 1: weeks ago. Sterling Shepherd was seventh in yards per target

1195
01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:30,240
Speaker 1: among wide receivers. Was also fourth in red zone targets

1196
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 1: among wide receivers. Was before he got hurt. He's healthy,

1197
01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:35,600
Speaker 1: now he should play. He'll see seven to ten targets.

1198
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:37,600
Speaker 1: So that's volume I will I will play and uh

1199
01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 1: and he'll operate out of the slaughter. They gonna kick

1200
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:43,600
Speaker 1: him outside. Normally it was a slot receiver when they

1201
01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 1: had Odell Beckham and they had Brandon Marshall. But now

1202
01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:49,840
Speaker 1: are they going to keep him in his natural position

1203
01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: the slot or do they kick him outside? And part

1204
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 1: of the reason I mentioned it, by the way, Seahawks

1205
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:58,080
Speaker 1: just downgraded their starting cornerback Jeremy Lane too out, so

1206
01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:00,480
Speaker 1: he's not gonna go. So there's an opportunity for somebody

1207
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:03,160
Speaker 1: on the outside. Roger Lewis and devars King have the

1208
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 1: size that Shepherd doesn't have, so I I feel they

1209
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:07,960
Speaker 1: keep him in the slot. We'll find out though. He'll

1210
01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:10,360
Speaker 1: find out on Sunday. And Richard Sherman and camp Chancellor

1211
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,160
Speaker 1: both questionable, but I think that's the fake questionable and nothing.

1212
01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 1: I think that's the probable questionable. So for all those reasons,

1213
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 1: I have Eli Eli on the bench. A Grim and

1214
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 1: Shepherd are intent to twenty ppr point range territory, but

1215
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,480
Speaker 1: that's not enough to support starting Eli. And this one

1216
01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:28,160
Speaker 1: in Orleans. Dark inexplicably blew up against the Broncos last week,

1217
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 1: but I got him on the bench against the Seahawks.

1218
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley had fourteen carries for forty three yards against

1219
01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:34,720
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and I I don't think Dark was gonna do

1220
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:36,560
Speaker 1: much better than that. I don't die there. I think

1221
01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 1: that's chasing last week's mirage right there. When we come back,

1222
01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 1: Saints take on the Packers, it's our first look at

1223
01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:46,080
Speaker 1: the breath. Huntley lead Packers will tell you what to

1224
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:50,320
Speaker 1: expect when we come back. Victory on Sunday's comes from

1225
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 1: listening to these guys on Saturday. Business Fantasy Football Weekly

1226
01:02:55,360 --> 01:03:08,600
Speaker 1: on the Fan Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly on the fan,

1227
01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:11,320
Speaker 1: Paul Church and Scott Fish and Brian Johnson with you.

1228
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 1: Saints take on the Packers, and it's an obvious a

1229
01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 1: start for Drew Brees anyway, but note that Morgan Burnett,

1230
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,920
Speaker 1: Devon House, and Damarius Randall are all potentially out of

1231
01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 1: this game, so it's the secondary for the Packers is

1232
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,800
Speaker 1: a wreck. And that's part of why Michael Thomas also

1233
01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:31,800
Speaker 1: and and clear a start. He'll face either an injured

1234
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:35,560
Speaker 1: Devon House or rookie Kevin King. Either way, great opportunity

1235
01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:38,480
Speaker 1: for him. Packers have surrendered at least ninety receiving yards

1236
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:42,360
Speaker 1: and or a touchdown to number one wideouts in five

1237
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,320
Speaker 1: straight games. Thomas is a terrific start, my number two

1238
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:48,720
Speaker 1: wide receiver overall this week. Ted ginn also in the

1239
01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:51,360
Speaker 1: house here. He'll get to Marius Randall if Randall plays

1240
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:54,040
Speaker 1: at all, and if he doesn't, then maybe he gets

1241
01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:56,360
Speaker 1: Kevin King unless Devon Houses out and then he needs

1242
01:03:56,440 --> 01:03:58,520
Speaker 1: Kevin King on that side. And then if none of

1243
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:01,360
Speaker 1: those three guys go, some someone I've never heard of

1244
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:06,360
Speaker 1: will start named Josh Hawkins. So ted gin dust him off.

1245
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,240
Speaker 1: This is a good opportunity here. Willie Sneed gets a

1246
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:13,320
Speaker 1: B grade because he gets slot cornerback. Well, he should

1247
01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:16,880
Speaker 1: get the backup slot cornerback because Quinn Rollins on i R.

1248
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:20,560
Speaker 1: His backup is called something called Lenzy Pipkins, and he's

1249
01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 1: in the concussion protocol. He may not go in this game.

1250
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:26,880
Speaker 1: Steed got twenty two snaps last week in his first

1251
01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 1: game back. He figures to get more this week. Is

1252
01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:33,920
Speaker 1: his weak healthier off of his injury. Even Brandon Coleman,

1253
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:38,760
Speaker 1: with all of these problems, plausible starter C grade for him.

1254
01:04:38,800 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 1: And while we're staying with the passing game, the only

1255
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 1: guy got on the bench is Kobe Fleiner there. He's

1256
01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:44,800
Speaker 1: been invisible for a month and they can score a

1257
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:46,920
Speaker 1: million different ways of their wide receivers. They do not

1258
01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:49,320
Speaker 1: need Kobe Fleaner in this game. Let's go to the

1259
01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:52,600
Speaker 1: running backs. Mark Ingram B grade. Last week, all of

1260
01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:55,080
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson's workload went right to mark Ingram as we

1261
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,280
Speaker 1: just talked about last segment, and if that's gonna hold

1262
01:04:57,320 --> 01:04:59,760
Speaker 1: up here, Ingram's got an excellent matchup with a Green

1263
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:02,560
Speaker 1: Bay defense that ranks twenty three against the run, giving

1264
01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:05,560
Speaker 1: up one or three yards per game. Alvin Camara also

1265
01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:08,680
Speaker 1: a B grade, coming off a career high seventy five

1266
01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:11,680
Speaker 1: rushing yards and seven yards per carry on the season,

1267
01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:14,560
Speaker 1: averaging six and a half yards per carry. He also

1268
01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:16,560
Speaker 1: signs as a receiver, and the Packers of all the

1269
01:05:16,640 --> 01:05:20,000
Speaker 1: most receiving touchdowns to running backs three, So I like

1270
01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:22,760
Speaker 1: Camara as well. Let's flip to the Green Bay side,

1271
01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:25,840
Speaker 1: where things get, of course, trickier with Brent Hudley. Here.

1272
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:29,640
Speaker 1: The good news is New Orleans ranks against the past.

1273
01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 1: They're giving up two passing yards per game and the

1274
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:37,880
Speaker 1: Saints of an aggressive pass rush that could make things

1275
01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:40,880
Speaker 1: tricky here. This is gonna be a a dinged up

1276
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:43,960
Speaker 1: uh for offensive line. Both tackles are gonna play, but

1277
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:47,160
Speaker 1: they're probably playing hurt. They're missing. Their right guard is

1278
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:52,120
Speaker 1: out center went uh start missed, missed I think Friday's

1279
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:53,880
Speaker 1: practice and now his status is up in the air.

1280
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:56,360
Speaker 1: Backup center for the Packers is on I R. So

1281
01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:59,120
Speaker 1: he's not a go. If those two guys can't go,

1282
01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 1: they gotta get a utility tackle guard who's never played

1283
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:07,000
Speaker 1: center before to play center. So I mean think, if

1284
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 1: you're Brett Huntley and this is the hand you've been

1285
01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:13,640
Speaker 1: dealt it's tough and they're probably playing from behind. Saints

1286
01:06:13,640 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 1: are scoring points in this game, They're gonna have to pass.

1287
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:19,880
Speaker 1: It's a It's a tough spot for Huntley in this game.

1288
01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:22,240
Speaker 1: I've gotta C grade on him, if only because of

1289
01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:26,520
Speaker 1: volume and because game flow should be through the passing game. Here,

1290
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:30,439
Speaker 1: I'm giving cautious B grades to Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb.

1291
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:36,040
Speaker 1: Jordy gets um a good matchup against Sterling Moore, and

1292
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:38,760
Speaker 1: then more recently Ken Crawley has stepped into the spot

1293
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:41,920
Speaker 1: that Jordy Nelson should go up against. Those guys have

1294
01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:44,280
Speaker 1: been abused by the likes of Stefon Diggs and Chris

1295
01:06:44,320 --> 01:06:48,000
Speaker 1: Hogan and Marvin Marvin Jones. If there's even one touchdown

1296
01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:50,080
Speaker 1: to go around in this game from Huntley, I think

1297
01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:53,720
Speaker 1: it goes to Jordy Nelson. Randall Cobb has been silent lately,

1298
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:55,959
Speaker 1: but he's he's got the best matchup on the field

1299
01:06:56,040 --> 01:07:00,200
Speaker 1: he'll face sometimes safety, sometimes slot guy Kenny Vacaro, who

1300
01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:04,120
Speaker 1: ranks dead last among safeties by Profo Ball Focus. So

1301
01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:07,240
Speaker 1: I like Hobba to B grade here. Davante Adams slips

1302
01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:09,720
Speaker 1: down to a C grade. He's gonna get his Uh,

1303
01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:12,920
Speaker 1: he's gonna match up with first round rookie cornerback Marshawn Lattimer,

1304
01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:16,000
Speaker 1: who's actually been really really good. And so I'm gonna

1305
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 1: move Adams down to a C grade. Any other receivers

1306
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:23,400
Speaker 1: to mention here? How about Martelis Bennett? Your boy? Uh,

1307
01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:25,800
Speaker 1: probably the most disappointing tight end of the year. I

1308
01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:27,840
Speaker 1: had him as my number four tight end going into

1309
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 1: the season on what I expected to be a good season,

1310
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:33,520
Speaker 1: and it's been brutal. The Saints have had problems containing

1311
01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:36,240
Speaker 1: tight ends who have who can get down field and

1312
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:40,360
Speaker 1: have size. Kyle Rudolph did well. Rom Gronkowski did well

1313
01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 1: he always does. Last week, Daniel Fells scored. Tight Ends

1314
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:46,040
Speaker 1: can be a safety valve for a quarterback. So I'm

1315
01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:49,080
Speaker 1: keeping I'm keeping Bennett on a C grade. But really,

1316
01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:52,280
Speaker 1: my heart, says Ben Jim. Okay, all of that, let's

1317
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:53,760
Speaker 1: go to the running backs. I already told you I'm

1318
01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:56,360
Speaker 1: worried about game flow going away from these guys, and

1319
01:07:56,640 --> 01:07:59,680
Speaker 1: the Saints can take him a really massively early and

1320
01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:01,840
Speaker 1: you know, the Saints having a lot of russia to

1321
01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:04,200
Speaker 1: reach seventy yards since Dalvin Cook in Week one, I've

1322
01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:06,960
Speaker 1: gotta barely see grade on on Aaron Jones, but you

1323
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:09,760
Speaker 1: could put him on the bench if you want time. Montgomery, though,

1324
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:11,680
Speaker 1: doesn't have to worry about game folks. If they have

1325
01:08:11,720 --> 01:08:14,240
Speaker 1: to keep passing, then that should go to Montgomery is

1326
01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:17,320
Speaker 1: the past catching running back here so and the Saints

1327
01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:19,599
Speaker 1: have allowed the six most receptions of the third most

1328
01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:22,519
Speaker 1: receiving yards to running backs. So I think Montgomery is

1329
01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:25,479
Speaker 1: okay in a PPR flat PPR format and he gets

1330
01:08:25,520 --> 01:08:29,799
Speaker 1: a C grade. A lot of a lot of talking

1331
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:31,880
Speaker 1: and a lot of fast talk at the Oxygen Thank

1332
01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 1: you Cowboys take on the forty Niners. Scott, talk to

1333
01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:38,000
Speaker 1: me about your thoughts here on what I think is

1334
01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:41,680
Speaker 1: a very exploitable matchup for Dak Prescott in particular. Absolutely,

1335
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:45,000
Speaker 1: I love Prescott this week. He's my third ranked quarterback

1336
01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:48,080
Speaker 1: this week, right behind Brady and Ryan, and that what

1337
01:08:48,200 --> 01:08:51,320
Speaker 1: should be a shootout. Uh. Prescott is top ten in

1338
01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:54,759
Speaker 1: passing yards and he has four straight multi touchdown games,

1339
01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:58,040
Speaker 1: and the forty bottom ten against quarterbacks and have allowed

1340
01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:02,719
Speaker 1: three straight three yard games. Prescott is second in rushing

1341
01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:06,719
Speaker 1: among quarterbacks behind Deshaun Watson. The forty Niners have surrendered

1342
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:09,800
Speaker 1: the most rushing attempts to quarterbacks, including touchdowns in the

1343
01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:13,120
Speaker 1: last two weeks. So I give Prescott an A grade.

1344
01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:15,840
Speaker 1: His top receiver does Bryant. I also give an A grade.

1345
01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 1: He's got ninety five yards or a score in each

1346
01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:20,640
Speaker 1: of his last four games, second in the NFL and

1347
01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:24,320
Speaker 1: end zone targets with ten. Love him this week, Jason Witten,

1348
01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:29,720
Speaker 1: I give a C grade too. They've been very, very

1349
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:32,640
Speaker 1: good against the tight end. No tight so I know

1350
01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:34,920
Speaker 1: no tight end is allowed over thirty five yards to

1351
01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:38,240
Speaker 1: a tight end and no touchdowns, but Witnes is like

1352
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:42,200
Speaker 1: the only tight end playing of the Snaps. He has

1353
01:09:42,240 --> 01:09:45,040
Speaker 1: sixty yards or a score in four of five games.

1354
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:47,760
Speaker 1: And again, I think Prescott is gonna have a good day.

1355
01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:49,639
Speaker 1: I think he might lean on Witness a little more

1356
01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:53,439
Speaker 1: than the other teams have for tight ends. I'm benching

1357
01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:55,200
Speaker 1: the rest. If you're going to take a dart throw,

1358
01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:58,439
Speaker 1: it's probably Beasley, who's had six targets each the last

1359
01:09:58,439 --> 01:10:01,080
Speaker 1: two games. But the other guys, I'm just mentioning him.

1360
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:03,400
Speaker 1: I'm not interested. I don't know where it's going to

1361
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:06,519
Speaker 1: come from. For the forty Niners, Bethard was meant to

1362
01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:08,320
Speaker 1: take a chance on me player. I really like him

1363
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:11,720
Speaker 1: This week, Garson obvious start. This week he gets a

1364
01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:14,880
Speaker 1: defense that has allowed two touchdowns to wide receivers in

1365
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:17,720
Speaker 1: every game of the last four and he's averaging over

1366
01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:20,960
Speaker 1: ten targets a game. George Kittle, I don't care what

1367
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:24,000
Speaker 1: people say. I don't care. I'm giving him an A grade. Wow,

1368
01:10:24,040 --> 01:10:25,880
Speaker 1: I like it. In the first three weeks, he averaged

1369
01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:28,560
Speaker 1: six yards per catch. The last three, he's overdoubled that.

1370
01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:31,559
Speaker 1: He has seventeen targets in the last two weeks. And

1371
01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:33,800
Speaker 1: in the two and a half quarters last week that

1372
01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,840
Speaker 1: he played with his former Iowa team made Bethard, he

1373
01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 1: had seven targets in two and a half quarters. And

1374
01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:44,240
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are allowing over fifty six yards per game

1375
01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:46,360
Speaker 1: to tight ends. And here's a list of all the

1376
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:49,080
Speaker 1: tight ends with more red zone targets than George Kittle,

1377
01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:53,320
Speaker 1: Rober Gronkowski, end of list. That's it. That's it, George

1378
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:59,559
Speaker 1: Kle love George Kittle, very quick. Kittle story. One dollar

1379
01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:02,000
Speaker 1: bid on him in August in an auction. I think

1380
01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:04,040
Speaker 1: he's being in my cheap sleeper tight end. Like no

1381
01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:06,799
Speaker 1: one's gonna bid on Kittle. Some guy goes to bucks,

1382
01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:09,200
Speaker 1: and I'm like, what is wrong with you? Man? It

1383
01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:12,320
Speaker 1: is my childhood friend. I had to buy him. He

1384
01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:16,519
Speaker 1: got sniped by George Kittle's childhood friend in an auction league.

1385
01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:18,320
Speaker 1: And now look now I'm missing out because of their

1386
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:21,000
Speaker 1: stupid friendship. He's gonna get an A grade there. So

1387
01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:24,320
Speaker 1: the last guy for them, Carlos Hyde seventy five yards

1388
01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:27,160
Speaker 1: or a touchdown in every single game this year. He's

1389
01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 1: afaging five targets per game. And Dallas has allowed the

1390
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:34,320
Speaker 1: last three good starting running backs over a hundred thirty

1391
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:37,439
Speaker 1: four total yards. The two that didn't, Paul Perkins and

1392
01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:40,000
Speaker 1: the Decayne Corps of Chris Johnson. So I think hides

1393
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:42,120
Speaker 1: a little better. I'm giving him an A grade. Alright,

1394
01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:44,960
Speaker 1: fantastic final matchup of this. Actually, you know what, we

1395

1408
01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:35,360
Speaker 1: Ted and Jody Marty. Thank you for your ongoing support

1409
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,760
Speaker 1: for the show. Premature speculation. Three guys that you can

1410
01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:44,400
Speaker 1: pick up right now who will potentially be waiver wire uh,

1411
01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:47,240
Speaker 1: waiver wire options next week. But you're already gonna have

1412
01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 1: that guy in your team. Scott, I'm gonna change to

1413
01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:50,800
Speaker 1: take a page out of your book from last week.

1414
01:12:50,840 --> 01:12:52,519
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with two, but I'll make it quick.

1415
01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:56,479
Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay, Detroit's on by Golden Tate is supposedly gonna

1416
01:12:56,520 --> 01:12:59,920
Speaker 1: miss two more weeks. Yeah, and no one wants to

1417
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:02,040
Speaker 1: see more of Fells and Ibron in the red zone,

1418
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:05,759
Speaker 1: So let's get Golladay in there alright. Another one, Josh

1419
01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:09,479
Speaker 1: Dockson Griden wants him more involved. The wide receivers for

1420
01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:12,479
Speaker 1: Washington are not stepping up. He's got two touchdowns in

1421
01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:14,400
Speaker 1: the last three games. If he scores again, you're not

1422
01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:15,920
Speaker 1: gonna be able to get him. He's doing it on

1423
01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:21,799
Speaker 1: no volume. But yes, he's scored alright. Uh, Brian premature speculation. Guy,

1424
01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:24,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Giants wide receiver Roger Lewis. The Giants

1425
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:27,760
Speaker 1: are gonna need a guy to step up on the boundaries,

1426
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,360
Speaker 1: and I think it's Roger Lewis. Uh, you'll laugh. But

1427
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:34,200
Speaker 1: targeted nineteen times last year, caught two touchdowns. That's a

1428
01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:36,880
Speaker 1: ten touchdown pace. And I'm just a hundred targets and

1429
01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:41,120
Speaker 1: the Giants just lost literally hundreds of targets. Uh. Injury.

1430
01:13:41,560 --> 01:13:43,640
Speaker 1: And I mentioned Jeremy Lane's out this week, so he

1431
01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:45,519
Speaker 1: could have a good game this week. Game this week.

1432
01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:47,479
Speaker 1: He does have a by next week. But following that,

1433
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:51,920
Speaker 1: he's got Rams San Francisco, Casey, Washington, Oakland, Dallas, Philly.

1434
01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:54,599
Speaker 1: Those are four plus four plus matchups in those six

1435
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:57,200
Speaker 1: So Roger Lewis, I'm gonna go back to the well

1436
01:13:57,400 --> 01:14:00,439
Speaker 1: on Thomas Rawls one last time. This is this might

1437
01:14:00,479 --> 01:14:03,160
Speaker 1: be the last great opportunity to pick him up. Um.

1438
01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:05,320
Speaker 1: He is the He's gonna be your starting running back

1439
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:07,920
Speaker 1: this week. He's not Eddie Lacy's not a factor here.

1440
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:10,439
Speaker 1: C J pro sits returns, but he'll probably be in

1441
01:14:10,439 --> 01:14:13,880
Speaker 1: a past catching role. And we've seen roles in two

1442
01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:16,840
Speaker 1: other games this year in which he entered both games questionable.

1443
01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:19,080
Speaker 1: This is the first time this year we will see

1444
01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:21,000
Speaker 1: him fully healthy co mean out of a buy, not

1445
01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:23,719
Speaker 1: on the injury report. Maybe we get the same fully

1446
01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:28,760
Speaker 1: healthy Thomas Rawles we saw the year before last when

1447
01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:32,080
Speaker 1: he forced Marshawn Lynch into early retirement. All right, let's

1448
01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:35,280
Speaker 1: go back to our matchups. Final matchup, Final two matchups,

1449
01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:38,840
Speaker 1: Broncos taking on the Chargers. Brian Alright, these teams met

1450
01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:40,000
Speaker 1: in Week one, by the way, so we'll have a

1451
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,599
Speaker 1: little history lesson here. Tomarius Thomas start with him. He's

1452
01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:44,760
Speaker 1: an easy be He only had five or sixty seven

1453
01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:46,600
Speaker 1: in Week one, but he should see more targets in

1454
01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:49,519
Speaker 1: this game. With Emmanuel Sanders now ruled out, that might

1455
01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 1: put Benny Fowler in play, who did have two touchdowns

1456
01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:55,320
Speaker 1: in Week one, or maybe even Jordan Taylor. Fowler should

1457
01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:57,719
Speaker 1: start in the slot. Taylor should be the other outside receiver.

1458
01:14:58,280 --> 01:15:01,080
Speaker 1: Uh So, I don't know Taylor in Mary uh take

1459
01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:04,240
Speaker 1: com play maybe a J. Derby delivered on the triple

1460
01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:06,720
Speaker 1: frown last week and a medi matchup. I got him

1461
01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:08,680
Speaker 1: on the bench with guys like Nico Leary out there

1462
01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:11,559
Speaker 1: that you could stream and way better options. Trevor Simeon

1463
01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:14,000
Speaker 1: on the bench as well. Uh to nineteen and two

1464
01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:16,439
Speaker 1: in week one, which wasn't bad, but I feel like

1465
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:17,920
Speaker 1: that's a ceiling for him in this one, and he

1466
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,800
Speaker 1: is missing Emmanuel Sanders, so I like other options more

1467
01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:23,080
Speaker 1: than Simeon this week as well. I'll give c J

1468
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:26,400
Speaker 1: Anderson a bu It's not standing for bell Cow though,

1469
01:15:26,680 --> 01:15:31,040
Speaker 1: just nine carries last week, but the game script down

1470
01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,439
Speaker 1: early so and it wasn't like Charles got a bunch

1471
01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:37,200
Speaker 1: of work either. No, it's uh, it's a. It's a.

1472
01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:39,920
Speaker 1: It's a pretty good matchup for CJ and Denver. They

1473
01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:41,960
Speaker 1: need to lean on CJ to win, and there are

1474
01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:44,599
Speaker 1: two losses. Anderson has averaged nine and a half touches

1475
01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:46,840
Speaker 1: and thirty total yards, and the three games they've won,

1476
01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:49,200
Speaker 1: Anderson has touched the ball over twenty four times and

1477
01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:51,280
Speaker 1: hundred eighteen total yards. So if they feed c J,

1478
01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:53,679
Speaker 1: they should both do all right. He's an a start.

1479
01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:55,439
Speaker 1: I love him this week. Well you said he was

1480
01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:57,360
Speaker 1: an a start last week and a little bit a

1481
01:15:57,400 --> 01:16:01,040
Speaker 1: little different. We're both wrong. But anyway over to L A.

1482
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:05,120
Speaker 1: C H the Chargers or Clippers, whatever the f they're called. Uh,

1483
01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:07,760
Speaker 1: start with Philip Rivers. I didn't give him a c

1484
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 1: only hundred nine two yards in week one, but he

1485
01:16:09,880 --> 01:16:12,640
Speaker 1: did throw for three touchdowns. We all know Denver is

1486
01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:15,519
Speaker 1: brutal against the pass and Keenan Allen is banged up.

1487
01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:17,240
Speaker 1: Who will get to you right now? Heard his shoulder

1488
01:16:17,640 --> 01:16:22,120
Speaker 1: and practice on Thursday. Might not play. Uh had five catches,

1489
01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:24,599
Speaker 1: thirty five yards and a touchdown in the opener against Denver.

1490
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:26,479
Speaker 1: That was the first time you played the Broncos since

1491
01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:29,439
Speaker 1: by the way, pretty crazy, but you just got a

1492
01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:31,840
Speaker 1: monitor Allen on game day. I mean you might not

1493
01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:34,840
Speaker 1: play with that shoulder injury. So, uh, Hunter Henry will play.

1494
01:16:35,120 --> 01:16:37,240
Speaker 1: Was not targeted in week one against Denver, but he

1495
01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:39,400
Speaker 1: was targeted last week. So now in every game that

1496
01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:41,160
Speaker 1: he at least has one target, he has eight yards

1497
01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,320
Speaker 1: or a touchdown. About that, So started Hunter Henry. He's

1498
01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:45,840
Speaker 1: a babo this week. And uh, you're also I'm benching

1499
01:16:45,880 --> 01:16:48,000
Speaker 1: the other wide receivers for um l A. By the

1500
01:16:48,040 --> 01:16:49,720
Speaker 1: way and then Melvin Gordon, I'm gonna give him a

1501
01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:51,599
Speaker 1: B and more. I'll give him an A. Only eighteen

1502
01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:53,840
Speaker 1: for fifty four on the ground against Denver in Week one,

1503
01:16:53,880 --> 01:16:56,360
Speaker 1: but did catch five balls and scored a touchdown through

1504
01:16:56,360 --> 01:16:58,719
Speaker 1: the air. Uh. Denver is tough to run on desplite

1505
01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:01,000
Speaker 1: Orleans dark while and ex Co be going off against

1506
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: them last week. But Gordon's past catching prowess makes him

1507
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:06,200
Speaker 1: in an easy start. He had nine catches last week. Alright,

1508
01:17:06,280 --> 01:17:09,040
Speaker 1: final matchup is the Monday Night or it's the Washington

1509
01:17:09,120 --> 01:17:12,360
Speaker 1: Redskins and the Philadelphia Eagles. Be great for Kirk Cousins,

1510
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:14,400
Speaker 1: who saw the secondary in Week one but didn't do

1511
01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,080
Speaker 1: much in that game, but that was his first game

1512
01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:20,360
Speaker 1: with the overhauled group of receivers. Now fast forward to

1513
01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:23,439
Speaker 1: now and Cousins performing much better, multiple touchdowns and three

1514
01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:26,960
Speaker 1: straight games. And here's Phillis past defense ranking against the past.

1515
01:17:27,160 --> 01:17:30,719
Speaker 1: They've allowed the most completions to opposing quarterbacks this season.

1516
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:34,920
Speaker 1: So I like Cousins um, but pick pick a receiver here.

1517
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,040
Speaker 1: This this is where it gets Harry. I gotta c

1518
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:40,960
Speaker 1: grade in troll prior he ought to have a good opportunity,

1519
01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:42,960
Speaker 1: but I feel like I say that every DAYMN week

1520
01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:47,759
Speaker 1: against opposing wide receivers, the Eagles ranked bottom three and targets, catches,

1521
01:17:47,840 --> 01:17:51,879
Speaker 1: receiving yards allowed. So it's another series of good matchups

1522
01:17:51,920 --> 01:17:53,640
Speaker 1: for troll Pire. Let's just hope you can put it

1523
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:56,840
Speaker 1: all together here. Jamison Crowder hasn't scored all year, hasn't

1524
01:17:56,880 --> 01:17:58,479
Speaker 1: top fifty two yards in a game, and has the

1525
01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:01,320
Speaker 1: top fifteen yards in his last two weeks. I gotta

1526
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:06,000
Speaker 1: put him on the bench. Josh Dockson Scott just eluded him.

1527
01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:08,599
Speaker 1: The two touchdowns are great receptions. He has this year

1528
01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:13,240
Speaker 1: four four receptions this season, so maybe this is the

1529
01:18:13,280 --> 01:18:15,280
Speaker 1: breakout game. But I don't know if I'm ready to

1530
01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:17,280
Speaker 1: put his starting great on him yet. The guy who

1531
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:20,400
Speaker 1: I like in the passing game Chris Thompson. He's always

1532
01:18:20,400 --> 01:18:23,599
Speaker 1: been a good spot starter against defenses that struggle defend

1533
01:18:23,680 --> 01:18:27,200
Speaker 1: runners against in through the air. That's the Eagles. This week.

1534
01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:29,600
Speaker 1: They've allowed the fifth most receptions to runners in the

1535
01:18:29,640 --> 01:18:32,679
Speaker 1: tenth most receiving yards, and Thompson did score in this matchup.

1536
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:35,200
Speaker 1: In Week one, all the running backs are on the bench.

1537
01:18:35,560 --> 01:18:37,920
Speaker 1: Whether other the other two running backs, I should say

1538
01:18:37,920 --> 01:18:40,200
Speaker 1: Thompson's a beast start Soma G P. Ryan and Rob

1539
01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:42,920
Speaker 1: Kelly are going to both play. They're both gonna share carries.

1540
01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,679
Speaker 1: They're gonna cannibalize each other. I'm not touching him. Let's

1541
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:47,720
Speaker 1: go to the philadelph And, by the way, Eagles run

1542
01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:50,760
Speaker 1: defense is number one in the league, so there's that too.

1543
01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:54,599
Speaker 1: They're giving a forty yards to running backs per game.

1544
01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:58,040
Speaker 1: That's it. So let's go to the Philly side. Carson

1545
01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:01,120
Speaker 1: Wentz a great Carson Wentz, and I don't know if

1546
01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:04,679
Speaker 1: I've ever said that on this show. I love the

1547
01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:07,320
Speaker 1: quarterback he's become. And he gets to go up against

1548
01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:10,240
Speaker 1: the Redskins, the twenty one ranked past defense, and they

1549
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:12,880
Speaker 1: likely won't have Josh Norman in this game. They may

1550
01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:17,760
Speaker 1: very well not of their other starting cornerback, brishotshot Uh.

1551
01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:21,320
Speaker 1: Brashot Brelan may not go in this game either, So

1552
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:26,160
Speaker 1: this is a good opportunity. Last week, c J. Bethard

1553
01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:29,760
Speaker 1: in his first ever game action and Brian Hoyer in

1554
01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:32,960
Speaker 1: his last ever game action, combined to roll up two

1555
01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:36,759
Speaker 1: hundred eighty passing yards together. I love Carson Wentz a grade.

1556
01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:40,439
Speaker 1: Zach Ertz a grade. He's the league leader among tight

1557
01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:43,760
Speaker 1: ends and catches targets, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns. He

1558
01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 1: will be a focal point against the defense that's given

1559
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:48,600
Speaker 1: up the most receiving yards to opposing tight ends. A

1560
01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:51,920
Speaker 1: plus plus plus for zach Erto yard games out of

1561
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:55,360
Speaker 1: his last seven against Washington outstand. There's note there is

1562
01:19:55,400 --> 01:19:57,599
Speaker 1: no metric by which I can think of which zach

1563
01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:00,760
Speaker 1: Ertz is not an A grade. Here here comes a

1564
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,919
Speaker 1: zero catch game. It's how it works all Shan Jeffrey

1565
01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:06,720
Speaker 1: A grade. Redskins held Jeffrey to three catches and no

1566
01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:09,400
Speaker 1: scores in Week one, but that was a different secondary

1567
01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:11,800
Speaker 1: and that was with Josh Norman. Now Josh Norman's out,

1568
01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:16,120
Speaker 1: so he should fare much better here. And Nelson Aguilar

1569
01:20:16,160 --> 01:20:19,000
Speaker 1: gets a C grade as well. He also another benefactor

1570
01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:21,360
Speaker 1: from a ding up defense. And z actually putting up

1571
01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:23,760
Speaker 1: pretty good numbers. And he had Week one he had

1572
01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:27,280
Speaker 1: a broken play touchdown, long touchdown reception. Maybe gets one here.

1573
01:20:27,600 --> 01:20:31,599
Speaker 1: And finally, le Garrett Blunt C grade. Blunt's yardage comes

1574
01:20:31,680 --> 01:20:33,880
Speaker 1: via the ground, which complicates a matchup with the Redskins

1575
01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:36,559
Speaker 1: were on the number seven ranked run defense and only

1576
01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 1: eighty seven ground yards per game. They've limited opposing backs

1577
01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:42,479
Speaker 1: to just three point nine yards per carry. But the

1578
01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:45,040
Speaker 1: whole rushing offense does go through Blunt. He's getting plenty

1579
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:48,880
Speaker 1: of carries. So we'll try Garrett Blunt at as a

1580
01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:53,320
Speaker 1: C grade. Alright, time for lighting round. You know what

1581
01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:57,240
Speaker 1: this means? One question? One question only between two players

1582
01:20:57,439 --> 01:20:59,400
Speaker 1: will go through as many calls as weekend. In the

1583
01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:06,320
Speaker 1: next about four minutes or so, beginning with Jean, Hello, Jean, good,

1584
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:12,320
Speaker 1: thank you. Um Gonna, I'm heavy on running backs. I'm

1585
01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:19,559
Speaker 1: doing a trade. Uh uh, team hunt for Gronk, um

1586
01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:23,679
Speaker 1: or take something off for the waivers. Man. There's good

1587
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:26,719
Speaker 1: tight ends every week. I think I just keep hunt honestly.

1588
01:21:29,880 --> 01:21:33,600
Speaker 1: Week Yeah, I love Gronk, but even I would not

1589
01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:41,559
Speaker 1: do that deal. Matt Hello, Hi Matt It guys, good,

1590
01:21:41,560 --> 01:21:46,519
Speaker 1: thank you. I've been defamated at injury receiver with Beckham

1591
01:21:46,560 --> 01:21:49,720
Speaker 1: and Commanuel Sanders and Golden tape, which I'm piecing it

1592
01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:52,880
Speaker 1: all together with running backs, and I've got Burrie and

1593
01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:56,559
Speaker 1: Henry four net and I read I'm really looking at

1594
01:21:56,600 --> 01:21:58,120
Speaker 1: I've got Frank Gore, but I'm looking at if I

1595
01:21:58,120 --> 01:22:01,920
Speaker 1: should drop him and get on neck. Can you drop

1596
01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:04,840
Speaker 1: Gore for Mac? I think is the the the question

1597
01:22:04,880 --> 01:22:06,880
Speaker 1: we got to at the end, right, I think you

1598
01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:09,000
Speaker 1: can Mac looks like the better running back. They better

1599
01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:11,639
Speaker 1: give him a chance for more of a chance and Gore.

1600
01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:16,040
Speaker 1: All right, Pete, Hello, I guess a trade question. Would

1601
01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:20,200
Speaker 1: you trade McCoy and the case Keenum for C J

1602
01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:27,559
Speaker 1: Anderson and big Ben Roethlisberger. M No. I think Lashawn

1603
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:30,559
Speaker 1: McCoy is going to be dynamite second half of the season.

1604
01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:32,519
Speaker 1: Actually think Ben's gonna pick it up a lot too,

1605
01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:35,160
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't know. I think you can find help

1606
01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:40,760
Speaker 1: a quarterback. Uh, Derek, Hello, what's on your mind? All right?

1607
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:47,280
Speaker 1: Uh question? Uh, let's Marie or Doug Martin PPR. We'll

1608
01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:55,120
Speaker 1: just star Oh, Mary Martin, Jeff Hey, guys, McCaffrey or

1609
01:22:55,240 --> 01:23:01,400
Speaker 1: Hyde PPR PPR. I'm still going hide. Yeah, I would do.

1610
01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:06,479

1611
01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:12,320
Speaker 1: I'm here, Hi Nathan. Yeah, So I have a full PPR,

1612
01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:18,280
Speaker 1: Christie McCaffrey or Derrick McKinnon. I'm gonna take McKinnon because

1613
01:23:18,280 --> 01:23:21,559
Speaker 1: he also gives you rushing touchdown prospects that you're not

1614
01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:24,040
Speaker 1: going to get out of Otto McCaffrey who's really not

1615
01:23:24,120 --> 01:23:28,360
Speaker 1: running the ball hardly at all. Zach your next? Yeah,
