<v Speaker 1>Joseph Krueger. Joseph Krueger will join me at the winners

0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:27.920
<v Speaker 1>banquet in January. Let's dive right into the matchup, Scott First,

0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:32.560
<v Speaker 1>one up, Miami takes on Atlanta. This is a This

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:36.040
<v Speaker 1>is the lowest scoring offense in the NFL for Miami.

0:02:36.440 --> 0:02:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Do you think they turn it around here against the Falcons?

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh man going to be right off the bats? Yes,

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:44.600
<v Speaker 1>you bet, trial by fire baby exactly. Yeah, because they're

0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 1>so low scoring. I don't have any A grades for

0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 1>this one. I did give my boy j J I

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:52.400
<v Speaker 1>a B grade. His yards per carry scare me. But

0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 1>the Falcons are bottom ten against the run, and every

0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 1>running back that's had at least thirteen touches against them

0:02:57.760 --> 0:02:59.919
<v Speaker 1>has a mass either eighty five yards and a touchdown

0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:04.240
<v Speaker 1>and as averaging one game. I I think that I

0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:06.640
<v Speaker 1>think that's going to propel him right into that range.

0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:10.960
<v Speaker 1>He could probably do both. It really is you and

0:03:11.000 --> 0:03:12.840
<v Speaker 1>I are going to go down on this gily ship together.

0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I was right about him last year. This year it's yeah,

0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:22.040
<v Speaker 1>it's getting scary. Uh. Jervis Landry I give a B grade. Uh.

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:25.680
<v Speaker 1>DeVonta Parker is now doubtful, probably not gonna play making

0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:29.400
<v Speaker 1>Landry the main target for Cutler, even though Coutlors not

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:32.880
<v Speaker 1>throwing much hundred seventy six yards per game. Uh, Jarvis

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:37.520
<v Speaker 1>Landry's he's He's averaging seven catches and eleven targets per game.

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 1>That's a nice safe floor. The Falcons have only allowed

0:03:40.200 --> 0:03:43.200
<v Speaker 1>one wide receiver over sixty yards this year, so I'm

0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:45.200
<v Speaker 1>benching all the rest of the passing game. But I

0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:48.280
<v Speaker 1>am giving B grades to Jarvis Landry and j h

0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:53.360
<v Speaker 1>Iuh for Atlanta, Julio Jones is an obvious start for me.

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:56.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't really need to go into him. DeVonta Freeman,

0:03:56.800 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm also giving an A grade. Uh. He's got the

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:03.200
<v Speaker 1>highest touchdown conversion rate inside the ten, scoring on five

0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:06.040
<v Speaker 1>of his nine attempts. He's scored in every game, averaging

0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:09.320
<v Speaker 1>two touches per game over the last three weeks. And

0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.760
<v Speaker 1>even though the Miami's got a top ten run defense,

0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:14.200
<v Speaker 1>so did Buffalo last week, and Freeman died great So

0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:19.200
<v Speaker 1>UH given him an A grade. I have his counterpart there, uh,

0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Tevin Coleman. I'm giving him a B grade. He's averaged

0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:24.280
<v Speaker 1>a d seventeen total yards of the last two games.

0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:28.640
<v Speaker 1>UH scored once. Dolphins have done a good job limiting

0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.880
<v Speaker 1>opponents on the ground, but Melvin Gordon caught seven balls,

0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:35.320
<v Speaker 1>Kamara cut ten balls, and Coleman's averaging five targets per game.

0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:37.719
<v Speaker 1>I think he can get his his points through the air.

0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Going through the air. Matt Ryan uh three of the

0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:45.360
<v Speaker 1>four quarterbacks that Placed played Matt played Miami had over

0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and fifty yards and a score. I think

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Matt Ryan's the best QB they're gonna play, or they

0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:52.359
<v Speaker 1>have played, of that bunch. So I'm giving him a

0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 1>B grade. And Austin Hooper Miami has been sneakily not

0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 1>very good against tight ends, allowing seven receptions in fifty

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.800
<v Speaker 1>seven yards to tight ends. Hooper disappeared for two games.

0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.720
<v Speaker 1>He's been top two, top twelve for two games, and

0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:06.320
<v Speaker 1>with the new out, I think you might see a

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:09.800
<v Speaker 1>slight increase in targets. I'm giving Austin Hooper a C grade,

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:12.479
<v Speaker 1>and I'm benching the rest. I mean, there there's some

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:15.279
<v Speaker 1>dart throat to Taylor Gabrielle. There is a little bit. Yeah,

0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:18.599
<v Speaker 1>it went SNeW went out and Julio went out last week.

0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:21.400
<v Speaker 1>He's in week four. He didn't have many catches, so

0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 1>he does scare me. I couldn't quite give him a secret. Alright,

0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 1>no problem, nicely done. First matchup in the books. Well done.

0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:31.400
<v Speaker 1>Giants take on Denver Brian Giants will be without their

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:33.599
<v Speaker 1>number one, number two, number three, and number four wide

0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 1>receivers this week. So can I start anybody? Yeah, let's

0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:42.640
<v Speaker 1>just get right to the benching Umi. Yes, so are

0:05:42.760 --> 0:05:47.240
<v Speaker 1>his wide receiver quote unquote weapons including Tavares King, Roger Lewis,

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:53.520
<v Speaker 1>At Egan, Travis Rudolph, Doc Doby, Sneezy whatever. Correct. Why

0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:56.640
<v Speaker 1>do I get this game? Because your Giants got That's

0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 1>why you get this game. Let's let's enjoy the misery.

0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's push forward here. Evan Ingram, You're you're churning your

0:06:02.160 --> 0:06:06.280
<v Speaker 1>way to Eli Manning's replacement. I'm hoping for the seam

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:08.800
<v Speaker 1>you should. This is a suck for luck moment for

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.680
<v Speaker 1>your squad, just like it was for Peyton Manning. Same

0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:14.279
<v Speaker 1>thing with Eli Manning in the bitter twilight of his career.

0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:17.680
<v Speaker 1>Here's your opportunity to draft. Get to right to the

0:06:17.720 --> 0:06:20.440
<v Speaker 1>top of a draft, top three pick, taken a take

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:22.960
<v Speaker 1>a fantastic quarterback and never look back. I'm with you,

0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 1>no shame and uh, going for the tank job anyway.

0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:28.240
<v Speaker 1>I will start Evan Ingram this week. I'll give him

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:31.080
<v Speaker 1>a seed despite the goose egg last week. In Denver's

0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:34.039
<v Speaker 1>last three games, UM Oakland tight ends combined for five

0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 1>catches sixty one yards, Buffalo tight ends combined for seven

0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:39.919
<v Speaker 1>seventy and one and Jason Witten had ten catches for

0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 1>ninety seven yards and a touchdown. Evan Ingrams by the

0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 1>best wide receiver on this team right now, so he

0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:46.479
<v Speaker 1>should see a healthy amount of targets in this game

0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:49.279
<v Speaker 1>and then in any other Giants running back. Any Giants

0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:51.640
<v Speaker 1>running back is on the bench. Denver is allowing two

0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:53.880
<v Speaker 1>point four yards for carry and the only running back

0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:56.039
<v Speaker 1>to score against them this year was Melvin Gordon in

0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Week one and he caught that touchdown. Nothing's getting done

0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:02.520
<v Speaker 1>on the ground for Giants. In going over to Denver,

0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:05.200
<v Speaker 1>I'll give to Marius Thomas and Manuel Sanders and be

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:07.920
<v Speaker 1>probably only one has the potential to get there at

0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:09.720
<v Speaker 1>the other one probably end up at a sea sea

0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:12.200
<v Speaker 1>level production. Um. The Giants are allowing only a hundred

0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.880
<v Speaker 1>and twenty yards per game to wide receivers. That's total,

0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.880
<v Speaker 1>the whole wide receiver. Nothing that's nothing and not one

0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:21.440
<v Speaker 1>opposing wide out his top seventy yards. Uh. Still the

0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Giants pets heads are falling off, though, so I can

0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:26.080
<v Speaker 1>think you can start Sanders and Thomas in this one.

0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:28.760
<v Speaker 1>H No Dominique, Rodgers Comarady. But that doesn't affect either

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:31.119
<v Speaker 1>because um he runs out of are he covers a slot?

0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh A J Derby, I can't give a cuh tight

0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:37.080
<v Speaker 1>end Virgil Green wasn't targeted last week while Derby, wait

0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:41.840
<v Speaker 1>for it, went to the races catches yards. A tip

0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 1>of the hat on that, Derby, Oh, double up on it.

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I like it. New York is just getting abused by

0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:50.360
<v Speaker 1>tight ends. They've surrendered all the best stats to the position,

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:53.360
<v Speaker 1>allowing the most in every category. So Derby is startable.

0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:55.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm still benching Trevor send me in though, UM to

0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:58.480
<v Speaker 1>fifty and two is probably his absolute ceiling in this game.

0:07:58.520 --> 0:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he gets there. I think they're better

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:02.400
<v Speaker 1>options coming up and take a chance on me and C. J.

0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Anderson will give him a b at least twenty carries

0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:06.760
<v Speaker 1>and three or four games, has at least three catches

0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:08.720
<v Speaker 1>in two of those four games. He'll still get the

0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:11.280
<v Speaker 1>bulk of the touches in this game. Um keeping Jamal

0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Charles on the bench, he won't see more than ten

0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:15.800
<v Speaker 1>carries and has been invisible in the passing game just

0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:18.960
<v Speaker 1>one because he in his heyday he was awesome. I

0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.920
<v Speaker 1>think you're under selling c. J. Anderson. He's a bell cow.

0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:24.400
<v Speaker 1>As you mentioned, he's getting twenty carries. He's been great

0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.480
<v Speaker 1>at home in particular, and New York has yet to

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:29.000
<v Speaker 1>hold a starting running back under seventy one rushing yards.

0:08:29.280 --> 0:08:31.320
<v Speaker 1>So I think I've got I've got c. J. Anderson's

0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 1>my number five running back overall for this week. I

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.719
<v Speaker 1>love him all right. I'm just disappointed Brian didn't throw

0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 1>in a champion at the bit for this matchup on

0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 1>a J dirt, so that would have been good. All

0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:44.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm upset about there. Green Bay takes on Minnesota. Aaron

0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Rodgers is safely an a uh no Anderson dajo, which

0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:51.480
<v Speaker 1>we've saw as Viking fans will remember when when Sendao's out.

0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Even though he's not a great coverage guy man, the

0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:56.000
<v Speaker 1>whole secondary has a very different feel to it and

0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:59.960
<v Speaker 1>when when Rogers faced the Vikings last December, check out

0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:03.280
<v Speaker 1>a fantasy line in the most recent matchup. Three hundred

0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:07.280
<v Speaker 1>forty seven passing yards, four passing touchdowns, and he ran

0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:11.319
<v Speaker 1>in another one. Who But historically the Vikings have contained Rogers,

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:13.520
<v Speaker 1>at least by his standards in the prior to matchups,

0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:16.000
<v Speaker 1>the only threw one touchdown in each game, hadn't topped

0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:19.160
<v Speaker 1>three hundred yards in his prior six matchups against the

0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Vikings prior to last December. Uh. Still a great for

0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:26.040
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers because he's Aaron Rodgers. And again secondary could

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 1>be and likely is without Andrewson. Day helped Jordy Nelson

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:31.160
<v Speaker 1>and Davante Adams. To me, this has been super murky,

0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:33.960
<v Speaker 1>and I've been battling with this all week. It's unclear

0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:37.600
<v Speaker 1>who who's gonna get Xavier Roads. Traditionally it's Ben Jordy

0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:40.079
<v Speaker 1>Nelson for a lot of games, but not always. It

0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:42.840
<v Speaker 1>was Terence Newman in the most recent one, and Newman

0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:46.319
<v Speaker 1>got got roasted in that game. So I think they

0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:49.040
<v Speaker 1>may put Xavier Roads on Jody Nelson. But the best

0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:52.120
<v Speaker 1>receiver on the team is Davante Adams, and so if

0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:55.000
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna put Xavier on the best receiver, to me,

0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:57.240
<v Speaker 1>that's still that's Adams. He's the guy who leads the

0:09:57.240 --> 0:09:59.360
<v Speaker 1>team and targets and receptions in yards. Who's the guy

0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:02.520
<v Speaker 1>who's begging the drums so hard for this preseason? I

0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:07.800
<v Speaker 1>can't remember, um um. I think it was Harrison. Was

0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Matt Harrison? Maybe it was Matt Harris. Who is this

0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:13.560
<v Speaker 1>guy you keep talking about? Hang on, wait, it's gonna

0:10:13.600 --> 0:10:15.600
<v Speaker 1>come to me. It's gonna come to me at some point.

0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:23.120
<v Speaker 1>It's wrong. There we go, man, that took a while.

0:10:25.480 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Whoever gets Trey Wayne's obviously it's got a really pretty

0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 1>good opportunity. But I don't think it's obvious how the

0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Vikings are gonna defend Nelson and Adams. So I've got

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:36.480
<v Speaker 1>B grades on both to just sort of mitigate the

0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Rhodes factor. And maybe that's not going to be a

0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 1>road shadow opportunity. They prefer to play Rhads on the

0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:44.400
<v Speaker 1>defenses right side of the field. Maybe he'll just stick

0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:46.960
<v Speaker 1>to the side of the field. We'll see Aaron Jones. Uh,

0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:49.400
<v Speaker 1>we'll sticking with the passing lasting I'll mention Martel Spend

0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:52.280
<v Speaker 1>it's on the bench. I went to back for this

0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:53.719
<v Speaker 1>guy in the preseason. I thought he was gonna have

0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:55.280
<v Speaker 1>a good season. I thought they were in targeting him

0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:57.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot which they are. He doesn't catch it, so

0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:59.760
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter. He hasn't got a touchdown pass and

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:03.599
<v Speaker 1>um Vikings opponents have completed at least five past the

0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:06.680
<v Speaker 1>game to a tight end. So there's a little upside here,

0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:09.440
<v Speaker 1>but I've had it with that loser. Let's go to

0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:12.400
<v Speaker 1>the running game. Aaron Jones is a really nice start.

0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:15.040
<v Speaker 1>I think be grade here. I thought he looked fantastic

0:11:15.120 --> 0:11:17.320
<v Speaker 1>last week. We'll talk more about Aaron Jones a little later,

0:11:17.760 --> 0:11:20.360
<v Speaker 1>but this matchup is a little tricky. Vikings defense has

0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:22.320
<v Speaker 1>allowed just three point three yards per carry, just one

0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:24.600
<v Speaker 1>rushing touchdown all year. It's not a given that Aaron's

0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:26.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna have a big game here. I think you will

0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:28.000
<v Speaker 1>not have as good a game as he had last week.

0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:31.120
<v Speaker 1>BE grade on Aaron Jones time Montgomery. If he plays,

0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:33.720
<v Speaker 1>you can put into a C grade for PPR leagues.

0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I think he could catch five six receptions in this game.

0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:40.319
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to the Viking side. Offense is going to

0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:42.719
<v Speaker 1>be missing Stefan Digs and Nick Easton. Those are not

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:45.439
<v Speaker 1>in substantial losses, and of course Sam Bradford case Keenum

0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:48.400
<v Speaker 1>is at the helm. I have a nervous C grade

0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:51.280
<v Speaker 1>on Keenum, mostly just because it's a bye week. Was

0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:54.000
<v Speaker 1>upside is the three touchdowns he threw in Week three,

0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:56.800
<v Speaker 1>But more realistically, you're gonna get somewhere in the neighbor

0:11:56.840 --> 0:11:58.880
<v Speaker 1>to like half the yardage and half the touchdowns you

0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:01.720
<v Speaker 1>put up in that big game against the Bucks. Packers.

0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Secondary is improved. Hardly impenetrable, but improved. Dak Prescott just

0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:08.880
<v Speaker 1>through three touchdowns, and if Aaron Rodgers does get out

0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:11.000
<v Speaker 1>to a big lead, case is gonna have to throw

0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:13.079
<v Speaker 1>a lot. So I've got a C grade on him.

0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I've gotta be grade on feeling he's going to draw

0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:18.240
<v Speaker 1>a slot corner Quintin Rollins and that's a juicy matchup.

0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:21.280
<v Speaker 1>Just in the last two games, far lesser talents Cole

0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Beasley and Kendall Wright have scored three times, and Theland

0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:27.440
<v Speaker 1>destroyed the Packers for two hundred yards and two touchdowns

0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:29.719
<v Speaker 1>last time they played. Granted that was not from the

0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:33.760
<v Speaker 1>slot um. Still great matchup over Alfred Theland, and I

0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:35.680
<v Speaker 1>think there's plenty of production here. He'll get some extra

0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:39.880
<v Speaker 1>looks with digs out. Rudolph gets a C grade. It

0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:42.480
<v Speaker 1>took the loss of four Chicago linebackers to do it.

0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:45.240
<v Speaker 1>But Rudolph finally paid off in the Keys Case Keendom

0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:48.360
<v Speaker 1>game last week. Hopefully that's gonna they will not require

0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:51.200
<v Speaker 1>similar circumstances this week. The Packers have done a good

0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:53.720
<v Speaker 1>job against tight ends all season, allowing four receptions and

0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:55.320
<v Speaker 1>just thirty or four yards per game. They have not

0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:58.840
<v Speaker 1>given up a touchdown. Thus the C grade for Kyle Rudolph.

0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 1>And then let's go to um Michael Floyd. I know

0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:05.520
<v Speaker 1>there's there's some steams to play Michael Floyd here because

0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:09.160
<v Speaker 1>he'll start in place the Stefon Diggs. But Michael Floyd's

0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:11.880
<v Speaker 1>last game with more than thirty six yards was almost

0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:15.840
<v Speaker 1>a year ago, and his total number of receptions as

0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:18.520
<v Speaker 1>a Viking is now sitting at one from last week's game.

0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:20.439
<v Speaker 1>That's it. I just don't I don't know that he

0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:22.800
<v Speaker 1>goes from that level of production to somebody that you

0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 1>want to start in one week. Not impossible. Uh, He's

0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.480
<v Speaker 1>Paul Allen's um one hit wonder, So you never know.

0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Jerick McKinnon gets a C grade here. In past seasons,

0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:35.800
<v Speaker 1>we Vikings have asked Jerick McKinnon to step up in

0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:38.600
<v Speaker 1>many opportunities here, and it's never really come to light.

0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:41.200
<v Speaker 1>He did have that fifty six yard touchdown run last week,

0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:44.440
<v Speaker 1>but his other runs average two point four yards per carry.

0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Packers of the twenty second ranked run defense and have

0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:50.280
<v Speaker 1>problems with timeshare speedbacks. Chris Carson had a good game,

0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Davant Freeman had a good game. Tore Cohen did well

0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:55.839
<v Speaker 1>against them. So there are some opportunities here. Hopefully you

0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:58.679
<v Speaker 1>can catch a few passes as well. See great Jerick McKinnon.

0:13:59.000 --> 0:14:02.000
<v Speaker 1>That was a beefy matchup. So case Keenum like has

0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:05.880
<v Speaker 1>terrorized Tampa Bay during his career. Supposedly, maybe it's three way,

0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:08.319
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's a Bay thing, so maybe you'll do it. Yeah,

0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:10.720
<v Speaker 1>every every team with the Bay isn't is in trouble

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:13.680
<v Speaker 1>against case Keenum. That would be handy here. If you

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:15.800
<v Speaker 1>had to live on one bay, would you choose the

0:14:15.840 --> 0:14:18.480
<v Speaker 1>one that's on a beautiful, warm ocean or the one

0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:22.240
<v Speaker 1>that's on the western side of Lake Michigan. Mm hmm,

0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:25.160
<v Speaker 1>go to the ocean. I've been. I've been to the

0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:28.520
<v Speaker 1>Green Bay a couple of times. I don't really need

0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:30.920
<v Speaker 1>to go back. When we come back nine players, not

0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:33.000
<v Speaker 1>normally and you're starting lineup, take a chance on me.

0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Will tell you who they are when we come back

0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:49.200
<v Speaker 1>your distinct of Fantasy Football Weekly on the fan, ch

0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:21.160
<v Speaker 1>step chance. Yeah, welcome to the show Fantasy Football Weekly.

0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Take a chance on me. And this is what I've

0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 1>got to believe is the original Swedish version. I'm just guessing,

0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:30.240
<v Speaker 1>not owing any Swedish. I wouldn't say Nola for a year,

0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 1>but I didn't learn any Swedish. I saw a plenty

0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:36.640
<v Speaker 1>of Swedish. That is a good looking campus. Let me

0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:38.400
<v Speaker 1>tell you, Yeah, I w it's a good stay the

0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:44.240
<v Speaker 1>same deal. I'll challenge you on that one. Uh, take

0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:45.880
<v Speaker 1>a chance to me. Nine players not normally in your

0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:51.040
<v Speaker 1>starting line up. We beginning at the quarterback position, Scott, Uh,

0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:55.360
<v Speaker 1>I take a chance on me. Quarterback is Jacoby Brissette.

0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Monday Night against the Titans. They're allowing The Titans are

0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:01.440
<v Speaker 1>allowing two point six touchdown per game to quarterbacks, which

0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:04.000
<v Speaker 1>is the worst in the NFL. They have allowed multiple

0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:07.640
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns in four their five games, and in the two

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:11.080
<v Speaker 1>games Tennessee played against the rushing quarterback Russell Wilson had

0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:14.120
<v Speaker 1>four hundred yards and four touchdowns and Deshaun Watson had

0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:18.640
<v Speaker 1>over three yards and five touchdowns. Not on the ground. No, no,

0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:21.520
<v Speaker 1>but a little bit of ground yardage. Over the last

0:16:21.520 --> 0:16:24.040
<v Speaker 1>three weeks, Bristte has rushed for sixty one yards and

0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:26.160
<v Speaker 1>three scores to go along with his two d forty

0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:28.800
<v Speaker 1>three yards passing. Love him in this week, and if

0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:30.760
<v Speaker 1>you have Mariota, he's a good backup plan because they

0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:33.640
<v Speaker 1>both played in the same game. All right, Brian, your quarterback.

0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:38.320
<v Speaker 1>I am doubling down on Josh McCown. McCown last weeks.

0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:43.400
<v Speaker 1>My guy last week had two touchdowns. Like you get

0:16:43.400 --> 0:16:45.840
<v Speaker 1>two touchdowns on a Josh McCown, you get the peacock.

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:51.560
<v Speaker 1>I'll take it, accepted the bell cow I just trying

0:16:51.560 --> 0:16:54.360
<v Speaker 1>to get that the bell cown wandering free? Yes, alright,

0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I was doing the WALKA shame around somewhere. McCown is

0:16:57.040 --> 0:17:01.240
<v Speaker 1>a marksman with the footballing completed over step his passes

0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:03.880
<v Speaker 1>over the last three weeks. He now draws the Patriots,

0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:08.200
<v Speaker 1>who are allowing passing yards per game. Every opposing quarterback

0:17:08.240 --> 0:17:10.840
<v Speaker 1>has top three hundred yards. New England has surrendered the

0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:14.080
<v Speaker 1>most passing touchdowns to the position, and the Patriots will

0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:15.960
<v Speaker 1>certainly score points. The Jets will have to keep pace,

0:17:16.040 --> 0:17:18.240
<v Speaker 1>so mccount will be a fantasy Helper. This week, you're

0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:22.199
<v Speaker 1>doubling down on your guy. I'm doubling down on my

0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:26.720
<v Speaker 1>guy from last week. We're quadrupling down. It's Brian Hoyer

0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:30.080
<v Speaker 1>against Washington. You gotta pick your spots with Hoyer, namely

0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:33.720
<v Speaker 1>against bad defenses. When facing the Rams and the Colts,

0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:37.320
<v Speaker 1>Brian Hoyer's average game three hundred forty two yards and

0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:41.719
<v Speaker 1>two touchdowns. This week he faces the Josh Norman Liss

0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Redskins secondary, and even with Norman dated allowed passing touchdowns

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:49.479
<v Speaker 1>in every game, Washington is a terrific run defense. And

0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:52.720
<v Speaker 1>with Carlos Hyde hurting Mike Shanahan, it's gonna be passing

0:17:52.760 --> 0:17:56.840
<v Speaker 1>throughout this game. Don't forget the Shanahan revenge Angle. Jannahand

0:17:56.880 --> 0:17:59.639
<v Speaker 1>revenge Jangle absolutely, and that's not the only revenge jangle

0:17:59.720 --> 0:18:01.520
<v Speaker 1>from that game has been able to discuss playing as

0:18:01.520 --> 0:18:05.320
<v Speaker 1>we will discuss later. That's about the running back position, Scott, Yeah,

0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I have Chris Ivory for Jacksonville. I know four Nette

0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:12.200
<v Speaker 1>is gonna run all over that Rams team. The Rams

0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:14.840
<v Speaker 1>there bottom five defense, allowing a hundred and sixty six

0:18:15.000 --> 0:18:17.200
<v Speaker 1>rushing yards per game to running backs, but over the

0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:19.960
<v Speaker 1>last two weeks, Chris Ivory has gotten nine touches forty

0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:23.080
<v Speaker 1>two yards. And you know, maybe when four Nette gets

0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:25.520
<v Speaker 1>tired of running, they'll let Ivory in for in. Just

0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:28.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I've Rey had a goal line rush last day.

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:30.920
<v Speaker 1>He didn't score, but it might happen this week. It's

0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:33.879
<v Speaker 1>it's one heck of a you know, dart through all right, Bryan,

0:18:34.280 --> 0:18:37.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to Oakland's Jalen Richard at home against the Chargers. Um.

0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:40.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't think the Raiders want Derek carrd is broken

0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:42.240
<v Speaker 1>back standing in the pocket too long in this game

0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:45.320
<v Speaker 1>against the team the Chargers, who had the high sack

0:18:45.359 --> 0:18:48.119
<v Speaker 1>percentage in the NFL. Raiders are going to lean on

0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:50.520
<v Speaker 1>their running backs in this game, and that certainly includes

0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:53.240
<v Speaker 1>in the passing game as well. DeAndre Washington is if

0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:55.680
<v Speaker 1>you with a hamstring injury, John Is a Olah Walle

0:18:55.800 --> 0:18:59.159
<v Speaker 1>has already been ruled out. That leaves Marshawn Lynch and

0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Richard. Shard will get a handful of carries, but

0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:04.760
<v Speaker 1>certainly will handle all the passing work. The Charges just

0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:06.960
<v Speaker 1>allowed ten catches the Giants running backs last week, so

0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:08.719
<v Speaker 1>I think Richard is a PPR helper as well as

0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:11.879
<v Speaker 1>week your leader in the NFL and yards per carrey

0:19:12.119 --> 0:19:17.160
<v Speaker 1>is Alex Collins seven point one yards per carry. Terrence

0:19:17.200 --> 0:19:19.919
<v Speaker 1>West is out for a month. Buck Allen excuse me, sorry,

0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Bunk Allen is going to be more of a pass

0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:25.920
<v Speaker 1>catcher and that's what he does. It goes up against

0:19:25.960 --> 0:19:27.399
<v Speaker 1>the Bears is a Bears defense that's a lot of

0:19:27.440 --> 0:19:29.639
<v Speaker 1>rushing touchdown and every game this season, and the rushing

0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:33.000
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns should go to Alex Collins. Let's go to the

0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:36.719
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver position. Well, I don't know what received endight

0:19:36.800 --> 0:19:40.560
<v Speaker 1>end receiver, all right, I'm going with Ryan Griffin for Houston.

0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:42.600
<v Speaker 1>I like it. With so many tight ends injured or

0:19:42.640 --> 0:19:45.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm by, I mean, a lot of people are looking

0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:48.119
<v Speaker 1>for something. The Browns have been crushed by tight ends.

0:19:48.200 --> 0:19:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Jesse James, Ben Watson, Austin Faring, James, Tyler Croft all

0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:54.280
<v Speaker 1>had at least six catches of the brown against the Browns.

0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Three of them scored. Ben Watson didn't, but he had

0:19:57.119 --> 0:19:59.879
<v Speaker 1>ninety one yards. I mean, they've allowed five touchdowns to

0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:03.600
<v Speaker 1>position and Griffin leads tight ends and targets over the

0:20:03.680 --> 0:20:06.640
<v Speaker 1>last three weeks for the Texans with five per game.

0:20:07.080 --> 0:20:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Kind of like that call, all right, nice. I too,

0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>am going tight end, which makes this great data for

0:20:12.760 --> 0:20:15.000
<v Speaker 1>someone playing on fanball, where you can play up to

0:20:15.080 --> 0:20:17.520
<v Speaker 1>three tight ends. That's a good point. You could play

0:20:17.600 --> 0:20:20.480
<v Speaker 1>three differentiator from the competition in my opinion. But anyways,

0:20:20.560 --> 0:20:23.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm going Kovie Fleaner at home against the Lions. Fleaner

0:20:23.560 --> 0:20:25.760
<v Speaker 1>has fizzled since scoring in his first two games of

0:20:25.800 --> 0:20:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the season, but I like him in this matchup, even

0:20:27.880 --> 0:20:30.119
<v Speaker 1>with Willie sneed back, Even with Willie sneedback, and we

0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:33.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know what capacity, but Detroit is ranks against tight

0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:35.560
<v Speaker 1>ends by football outsiders that are allowing more than seventy

0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:37.920
<v Speaker 1>yards per game to the position. And in his time

0:20:37.920 --> 0:20:40.280
<v Speaker 1>in New Orleans, Fleener is averaging twice as many yards

0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:41.840
<v Speaker 1>at home than he is on the road. So he's

0:20:41.920 --> 0:20:43.800
<v Speaker 1>much better at home where he's playing this week, So

0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:48.160
<v Speaker 1>I got cleaner. My receiver is ju Ju Smith Schuster.

0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:51.080
<v Speaker 1>If you don't know, he is your slot receiver for

0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:53.960
<v Speaker 1>the Pittsburgh Steelers. Um He's been good enough to start

0:20:54.000 --> 0:20:57.040
<v Speaker 1>since Week two, displacing a long time slot receiver, Eli Rodgers.

0:20:57.080 --> 0:21:00.479
<v Speaker 1>His yardage has improved in every one of his games.

0:21:00.880 --> 0:21:03.840
<v Speaker 1>He has been targeted at least four times in every game,

0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:06.480
<v Speaker 1>and he's already scored in two of his four NFL starts.

0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:10.120
<v Speaker 1>He's a fat fifty scoring rate. Juju Smith Schuster, He'll

0:21:10.160 --> 0:21:13.200
<v Speaker 1>go up against arguably the worst cornerback in the NFL,

0:21:13.359 --> 0:21:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Philip Gaines, who Pro Football Focus ranks as the one

0:21:17.400 --> 0:21:21.640
<v Speaker 1>hundred eight cornerback out of the one hundred nine quarterbacks

0:21:21.680 --> 0:21:24.560
<v Speaker 1>that they rate. Also in Juju Smith Schuster, he's six

0:21:24.680 --> 0:21:26.480
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL. He MSS speak one, he's six in

0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:29.040
<v Speaker 1>the NFL and red zone targets with seven. How about that,

0:21:29.440 --> 0:21:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Juju Smith Schuster, I like, thank you for adding a

0:21:32.400 --> 0:21:36.280
<v Speaker 1>little sizzle. I can't wait till Juju gets a B

0:21:37.400 --> 0:21:41.679
<v Speaker 1>great on the show. Someday gets a ju Ju b G. Nice.

0:21:42.440 --> 0:21:44.840
<v Speaker 1>You should have saved that, and I'm out you guys, Yeah,

0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:49.600
<v Speaker 1>you're done. Cleveland, it takes on Houston. The the Cleveland

0:21:49.640 --> 0:21:51.720
<v Speaker 1>running game has been an utter disaster. How do you

0:21:51.760 --> 0:21:53.800
<v Speaker 1>feel about how do you feel about crow? Well? But

0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Duke Johnson. There's Duke Johnson. Though Duke Johnson has been

0:21:56.600 --> 0:21:59.640
<v Speaker 1>a pleasant surprise touchdowns of three straight games. Right well

0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:03.280
<v Speaker 1>for for Cleveland. First off, I'm not giving any a grades,

0:22:03.359 --> 0:22:07.360
<v Speaker 1>just none, because you know the Browns. I'm giving Duke

0:22:07.440 --> 0:22:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Johnson and B grade. And this is more about Duke

0:22:09.400 --> 0:22:13.439
<v Speaker 1>Johnson is the matchup the The Texans are only allowing

0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:15.600
<v Speaker 1>twenty two yards per game in the receiving game. That's

0:22:15.600 --> 0:22:19.160
<v Speaker 1>where Duke Johnson thrives. But Terence West scored twice last week,

0:22:19.160 --> 0:22:22.240
<v Speaker 1>and it's really hard to ignore Duke Johnson averaging six catches,

0:22:22.280 --> 0:22:24.879
<v Speaker 1>eighty five yards and a score over the last three games.

0:22:25.080 --> 0:22:28.320
<v Speaker 1>I think he can overcome that matchup. I have a

0:22:28.440 --> 0:22:31.359
<v Speaker 1>C grade on Isaiah Crawl, and honestly, I thought about

0:22:31.560 --> 0:22:33.879
<v Speaker 1>just putting him his bank. Frankly should have been a

0:22:33.880 --> 0:22:36.280
<v Speaker 1>bench in every one of his previous games, so honestly,

0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:38.320
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't have been felt bad if you did. Honestly,

0:22:38.960 --> 0:22:41.120
<v Speaker 1>this is like the lowest of SEA grades you can get.

0:22:42.000 --> 0:22:43.720
<v Speaker 1>I think he'll get ten carries in the first ten

0:22:43.720 --> 0:22:46.040
<v Speaker 1>plus carries in the first half. That's only why uh

0:22:46.119 --> 0:22:48.439
<v Speaker 1>for Net and Hunt are the only two runingbacks to

0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:51.199
<v Speaker 1>top forty five yards on the season against the Texans

0:22:51.280 --> 0:22:53.800
<v Speaker 1>and Corals averaging three point one yards per carry. And

0:22:53.840 --> 0:22:56.960
<v Speaker 1>when the Browns fall behind by ten points, Krawl only

0:22:57.000 --> 0:22:59.399
<v Speaker 1>has eight carries and that's been over seven and a

0:22:59.480 --> 0:23:02.760
<v Speaker 1>half orders worth of play, so he's barely getting a

0:23:02.800 --> 0:23:05.320
<v Speaker 1>touch carry per quarter and they're constantly down by ten,

0:23:05.359 --> 0:23:07.520
<v Speaker 1>which is why Duke Johnson, as the past catching back,

0:23:07.600 --> 0:23:10.000
<v Speaker 1>is getting much. Texans will get up by ten pretty early.

0:23:10.000 --> 0:23:12.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm afraid he'll be gone. Curl will not play much

0:23:12.160 --> 0:23:14.760
<v Speaker 1>in the second half. Right in the passing game. The

0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:17.400
<v Speaker 1>only guy I'm really starting, and and it's a little

0:23:17.440 --> 0:23:19.440
<v Speaker 1>if he is David and Joku. He's scored in three

0:23:19.480 --> 0:23:21.520
<v Speaker 1>of his four four games. The Texans are allowing you

0:23:21.560 --> 0:23:23.480
<v Speaker 1>over seventy yards per game to tight ends in the

0:23:23.560 --> 0:23:26.560
<v Speaker 1>last three weeks, fifty yards or score for for the

0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:29.840
<v Speaker 1>starting tight end. I think Najoku's talent is gonna win out,

0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:34.040
<v Speaker 1>even though the valve is still involved. I'm benching Hogan.

0:23:34.160 --> 0:23:35.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm mentioning all the wide receivers because it's kind of

0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:38.280
<v Speaker 1>like fantasy, whack them all every week. It's a different target.

0:23:38.359 --> 0:23:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Probably remember where Sharp Higgins was a thing week ago. Yeah,

0:23:41.440 --> 0:23:44.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Ricardo Lewis has led in the last two weeks,

0:23:44.280 --> 0:23:47.520
<v Speaker 1>but I'm not confident in that situation this week against

0:23:47.640 --> 0:23:49.400
<v Speaker 1>the Texans. All right, let's go to the Houston side.

0:23:49.880 --> 0:23:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Deshaun Watson A grade. He's my number one rand quarterback

0:23:53.359 --> 0:23:55.840
<v Speaker 1>this week. He's also playing a team that allows two

0:23:55.840 --> 0:23:59.960
<v Speaker 1>point six touchdowns per game to quarterbacks. Just uh He's

0:24:00.160 --> 0:24:02.880
<v Speaker 1>He's the only running quarterback that faced the Browns so far.

0:24:02.960 --> 0:24:06.199
<v Speaker 1>Brissette ran to in Deshaun Watson. You know, has the

0:24:06.200 --> 0:24:09.840
<v Speaker 1>ability to run. Every quarterback against the Browns has multiple touchdowns,

0:24:09.840 --> 0:24:11.639
<v Speaker 1>and I think you can argue Watson's the best quarterback

0:24:11.680 --> 0:24:15.760
<v Speaker 1>they will face, will have faced Hopkins. Pretty obvious A

0:24:16.000 --> 0:24:19.160
<v Speaker 1>for me. I'm moving on uh C grade for Will Fuller. Yeah,

0:24:19.200 --> 0:24:22.360
<v Speaker 1>I know, he scored twice each of the last two weeks,

0:24:22.400 --> 0:24:25.880
<v Speaker 1>but seventy of the the wide receiver production that goes

0:24:25.920 --> 0:24:28.520
<v Speaker 1>against the Browns is in the wide receiver one. The

0:24:29.000 --> 0:24:31.960
<v Speaker 1>second wide wide receiver against the Browns is averaging only

0:24:32.000 --> 0:24:34.520
<v Speaker 1>twenty four yards and hasn't scored all the touchdowns. Are

0:24:34.520 --> 0:24:37.119
<v Speaker 1>the number one wide receiver against the Browns. So I

0:24:37.480 --> 0:24:39.800
<v Speaker 1>don't exactly love him. I I did give him a

0:24:39.840 --> 0:24:41.720
<v Speaker 1>C grade because of that. Trust him because the last

0:24:41.720 --> 0:24:43.600
<v Speaker 1>two weeks it seems like Watson and him do have

0:24:43.640 --> 0:24:47.560
<v Speaker 1>a connection. Uh C grade for Lamar Miller. The Browns

0:24:47.560 --> 0:24:49.880
<v Speaker 1>are holding all the running backs under three yards per

0:24:49.880 --> 0:24:52.000
<v Speaker 1>carry and even Levy on Bell only at thirty two

0:24:52.080 --> 0:24:55.960
<v Speaker 1>yards in week one. That said, Miller is seeing six

0:24:57.119 --> 0:25:00.400
<v Speaker 1>of the touches seven percent of snaps last week. He's

0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:03.480
<v Speaker 1>one of only five backstaff fifteen fifteen touches every week

0:25:03.520 --> 0:25:06.480
<v Speaker 1>this season. That volume. I'm giving him a seagret. It's hard.

0:25:06.480 --> 0:25:09.800
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to ignore. Ryan Griffin was my ticket chance

0:25:09.840 --> 0:25:12.720
<v Speaker 1>on me player and bench the rest all right? Perfect.

0:25:13.000 --> 0:25:16.199
<v Speaker 1>When we come back, New England takes on the Jets,

0:25:16.320 --> 0:25:19.680
<v Speaker 1>you'll find out if um Elijah McGuire is sitting on

0:25:19.760 --> 0:25:21.800
<v Speaker 1>a big game or not, and if there are any

0:25:21.840 --> 0:25:24.800
<v Speaker 1>possible Patriots. You'd actually mentioned this matchup when we returned

0:25:24.800 --> 0:25:28.919
<v Speaker 1>to Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan. You're distinctive Fantasy

0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Football Weekly on the Fan. Welcome back to the show.

0:25:53.240 --> 0:25:57.280
<v Speaker 1>It is Fantasy Football Weekly. You got a big block

0:25:57.320 --> 0:26:01.320
<v Speaker 1>of matchups for you, beginning with New England at the

0:26:01.359 --> 0:26:07.680
<v Speaker 1>New York Jets. Brian Johnson start all my Patriots, right, yeah,

0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:10.000
<v Speaker 1>I do do not have a bench grade here. Uh.

0:26:10.160 --> 0:26:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Starting with Tom Brady, he gets to nay, he's expected

0:26:12.400 --> 0:26:14.919
<v Speaker 1>to play with the shoulder injury, like he'll play. The

0:26:14.960 --> 0:26:17.640
<v Speaker 1>Jets have faced garbage quarterbacks outside of Derek Carr, who

0:26:17.680 --> 0:26:19.960
<v Speaker 1>threw for three touchdowns. Brady can certainly do the same.

0:26:20.440 --> 0:26:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Rob Gronkowski, on the other hand, I'm gonna give him

0:26:23.040 --> 0:26:25.760
<v Speaker 1>a B just for Bee where I'm a little nervous

0:26:25.760 --> 0:26:27.679
<v Speaker 1>with Gronk as always, but he should be good to

0:26:27.720 --> 0:26:30.560
<v Speaker 1>go with the thigh injury. Practiced all week, practice all week,

0:26:30.760 --> 0:26:33.160
<v Speaker 1>ten days off, He's fine. He will play. Who knows

0:26:33.200 --> 0:26:35.640
<v Speaker 1>how how long I'll need to play for, but you're

0:26:35.640 --> 0:26:38.040
<v Speaker 1>certainly starting him this week against the Jets. Opposing tight

0:26:38.119 --> 0:26:40.679
<v Speaker 1>ends have been involved against them. Buffalo tight ends combined

0:26:40.720 --> 0:26:43.520
<v Speaker 1>for five catches seventy five yards and a touchdown. Oakland

0:26:43.520 --> 0:26:45.959
<v Speaker 1>tight ends caught six balls. Cleveland tight ends caught six

0:26:46.040 --> 0:26:48.359
<v Speaker 1>for seventy two and one. So gron can match that

0:26:48.440 --> 0:26:51.680
<v Speaker 1>box square by himself quite easily. Brandon Cooks he gets

0:26:51.680 --> 0:26:53.960
<v Speaker 1>a B as well. His target totals are a little

0:26:53.960 --> 0:26:56.359
<v Speaker 1>alarming this year. He hasn't seen more than eight targets

0:26:56.400 --> 0:26:58.520
<v Speaker 1>in the game. Not one target in the red zone

0:26:58.600 --> 0:27:01.560
<v Speaker 1>yet either, So I'm a little worried about Cooks. But

0:27:01.720 --> 0:27:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Michael Crabs he had a monster game against the Jets.

0:27:04.000 --> 0:27:06.840
<v Speaker 1>DeVante Parker had a very strong performance as well. Cooks

0:27:06.880 --> 0:27:08.840
<v Speaker 1>is certainly of that ilk, so he gets the B grade.

0:27:09.320 --> 0:27:11.399
<v Speaker 1>Like him, I still like him, but I like Chris

0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:14.359
<v Speaker 1>Hogan more. I'm giving him an A here uh a

0:27:14.440 --> 0:27:16.560
<v Speaker 1>homecoming of sorts, by the way, you always gotta like

0:27:16.600 --> 0:27:19.680
<v Speaker 1>the homecoming bonus in addition to the revenge not quite

0:27:19.680 --> 0:27:22.439
<v Speaker 1>revenge here uh. Four catches seventy yards the last time

0:27:22.480 --> 0:27:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Hogan was in New Jersey. That's a safe floor for

0:27:24.880 --> 0:27:27.159
<v Speaker 1>him in this one. Over the last three weeks, he

0:27:27.200 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 1>has been targeted five times inside the ten yard line.

0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:32.160
<v Speaker 1>That's very good usage in the red zone, and taller

0:27:32.200 --> 0:27:34.720
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers have had more success against New York, so

0:27:34.800 --> 0:27:37.560
<v Speaker 1>he gets the A grade here. Danny Amndola, I was

0:27:37.600 --> 0:27:39.200
<v Speaker 1>closely giving a B two. I'm gonna give him a

0:27:39.240 --> 0:27:41.560
<v Speaker 1>SEA with Gronk back in the lineup. But get this.

0:27:42.400 --> 0:27:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Since the start of Amundola has played in twenty three

0:27:45.000 --> 0:27:48.240
<v Speaker 1>games with Gronk active and six with Gronk inactive. In

0:27:48.280 --> 0:27:51.480
<v Speaker 1>the games without Gronk, Amendola has only average an extra

0:27:51.520 --> 0:27:54.040
<v Speaker 1>target and less than one added catch per game. So

0:27:54.080 --> 0:27:56.679
<v Speaker 1>it's not like his production hinges on Gronk being or not.

0:27:56.880 --> 0:28:00.119
<v Speaker 1>So he's certainly more. Did you do He's mind or

0:28:00.160 --> 0:28:03.640
<v Speaker 1>twelve wide receiver. This week it's the buster screen effect,

0:28:03.960 --> 0:28:06.960
<v Speaker 1>the screen door as we've called him Custer screen because

0:28:07.000 --> 0:28:09.280
<v Speaker 1>of because of what he lets the opposition due to him.

0:28:09.560 --> 0:28:11.520
<v Speaker 1>We um. I think that's a nice matchup, and I

0:28:11.560 --> 0:28:13.280
<v Speaker 1>still like Amndola. I can be on board with it.

0:28:13.400 --> 0:28:14.679
<v Speaker 1>I was very close to a be So let's go

0:28:14.760 --> 0:28:16.520
<v Speaker 1>with it. B there you talked to me into it. Uh.

0:28:16.560 --> 0:28:18.920
<v Speaker 1>And over to the running backs, Mike Gillossly, he only

0:28:18.960 --> 0:28:21.080
<v Speaker 1>gets a C for me. Over the last three weeks.

0:28:21.080 --> 0:28:23.399
<v Speaker 1>He has just one rush from inside the five yard line,

0:28:23.680 --> 0:28:26.439
<v Speaker 1>no surprise. He hasn't scored since Week two. But the

0:28:26.520 --> 0:28:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Jets are ranked twenty against the run by Football Outsiders

0:28:29.200 --> 0:28:31.520
<v Speaker 1>d v o A ratings, and they've allowed the fourth

0:28:31.560 --> 0:28:34.280
<v Speaker 1>most running back touches and gold to go situations. So

0:28:34.520 --> 0:28:37.560
<v Speaker 1>gillless lye uh, I think I here's an angle you got.

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:39.960
<v Speaker 1>You got Brady coming in with a sore arm, You've

0:28:40.000 --> 0:28:42.720
<v Speaker 1>got a terrible Jets run defense. Why don't you just

0:28:42.800 --> 0:28:45.320
<v Speaker 1>run a bunch in this game? I like gillously and

0:28:45.360 --> 0:28:46.960
<v Speaker 1>if I were doing like a fan ball, if I

0:28:47.000 --> 0:28:48.760
<v Speaker 1>were used to making a fan ball roster, I would

0:28:48.760 --> 0:28:51.719
<v Speaker 1>consider avoiding all of the all of the Patriots except

0:28:51.760 --> 0:28:54.360
<v Speaker 1>gillously and try to take take the angle that it

0:28:54.400 --> 0:28:56.520
<v Speaker 1>plays out that way as a as a run first

0:28:56.840 --> 0:28:59.440
<v Speaker 1>offensive game plan. I can't argue that either. But I

0:28:59.680 --> 0:29:02.200
<v Speaker 1>still James White though, giving him a B. Here at

0:29:02.280 --> 0:29:04.480
<v Speaker 1>least eight targets and three of his last four games,

0:29:04.480 --> 0:29:07.240
<v Speaker 1>and he's caught at least seven passes in those three games. Uh.

0:29:07.280 --> 0:29:09.760
<v Speaker 1>The Jets have allowed receiving touchdowns and back to back games,

0:29:09.760 --> 0:29:11.920
<v Speaker 1>and White caught a touchdown in their last meeting. So

0:29:12.960 --> 0:29:14.480
<v Speaker 1>writing is on the wall for a White touchdown in

0:29:14.480 --> 0:29:16.160
<v Speaker 1>this game, I think. So he gets a B grade

0:29:16.320 --> 0:29:19.280
<v Speaker 1>over to the Jets. Uh. Let's start with Elijah McGuire.

0:29:19.320 --> 0:29:21.120
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned him. He seems like the best running back

0:29:21.120 --> 0:29:23.000
<v Speaker 1>start in this game against the Patriots, who are top

0:29:23.040 --> 0:29:25.440
<v Speaker 1>twelve in our rushing and receiving yards allowed to running back,

0:29:25.440 --> 0:29:28.320
<v Speaker 1>so they are far more generous through the air. Um

0:29:28.480 --> 0:29:31.640
<v Speaker 1>blow Powell very banged up with that calf injury, unlikely

0:29:31.720 --> 0:29:33.800
<v Speaker 1>to play. Matt Forte should make his return from a

0:29:33.800 --> 0:29:35.800
<v Speaker 1>toe injury, but I just don't trust that guy. So

0:29:36.240 --> 0:29:38.200
<v Speaker 1>McGuire is a running back I'm starting out of this crew.

0:29:38.240 --> 0:29:40.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving him to see almost a borderline B. But

0:29:40.760 --> 0:29:42.600
<v Speaker 1>he just doesn't hasn't looked that great. He hasn't really

0:29:42.600 --> 0:29:44.680
<v Speaker 1>passed the eye test, but you should get the opportunities here.

0:29:44.720 --> 0:29:47.520
<v Speaker 1>He is startable as his Austin Safari and Jenkins. My

0:29:47.600 --> 0:29:50.600
<v Speaker 1>premature speculation from a few weeks back. Over the last

0:29:50.600 --> 0:29:52.600
<v Speaker 1>two weeks, a s J is second among tight ends

0:29:52.600 --> 0:29:55.959
<v Speaker 1>and catches. He saw a healthy eight targets last week

0:29:55.960 --> 0:30:00.760
<v Speaker 1>than KP Talk also scored. The Patriots are one of

0:30:00.800 --> 0:30:03.760
<v Speaker 1>four teams to see forty plus targets from opposing tight ends,

0:30:03.760 --> 0:30:05.880
<v Speaker 1>and they've allowed the most red zone targets and red

0:30:05.960 --> 0:30:08.040
<v Speaker 1>zone touches tight ends so far this year, so A

0:30:08.200 --> 0:30:10.440
<v Speaker 1>s J will continue to surge in this one. I'm

0:30:10.440 --> 0:30:12.680
<v Speaker 1>also starting Jammin and curse he gets to be at

0:30:12.720 --> 0:30:14.920
<v Speaker 1>least one opposing wide receiver has caught at least one

0:30:14.960 --> 0:30:17.400
<v Speaker 1>touchdown indoor top to one hundred yards in every game

0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:19.960
<v Speaker 1>against New England, so it's no surprise of Patriots have

0:30:20.000 --> 0:30:22.640
<v Speaker 1>also allowed the fifth most catches and second most yards

0:30:22.640 --> 0:30:25.360
<v Speaker 1>to wide receivers. That almost makes Robby Anderson the hail

0:30:25.400 --> 0:30:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Mary c play as well. In a game where the

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Jets will likely be chasing points, I don't like it

0:30:29.800 --> 0:30:31.840
<v Speaker 1>a lot, but if you're desperate, you could play Anderson.

0:30:32.280 --> 0:30:33.840
<v Speaker 1>And that is why I might take a chance to

0:30:33.840 --> 0:30:37.719
<v Speaker 1>make quarterback was Josh mccounty. Chicago takes on Baltimore, and well,

0:30:37.760 --> 0:30:40.120
<v Speaker 1>let's start with the guys you ken start in Chicago.

0:30:40.200 --> 0:30:42.760
<v Speaker 1>There's not a lot Jordan Howard for starters, four touchdowns

0:30:42.760 --> 0:30:45.120
<v Speaker 1>have massed his yard is deficiencies, though he's been under

0:30:45.120 --> 0:30:47.600
<v Speaker 1>eighty total yards in four of the five games he's

0:30:47.600 --> 0:30:50.760
<v Speaker 1>played this year. Um and the Ravens defense though bottom

0:30:50.800 --> 0:30:53.200
<v Speaker 1>ten against the in the league against rushing yards allowed,

0:30:53.400 --> 0:30:55.000
<v Speaker 1>and they've given up a rushing score need to the

0:30:55.040 --> 0:30:57.400
<v Speaker 1>last three games, so I I expect a lot of

0:30:57.440 --> 0:31:00.280
<v Speaker 1>running to keep Mitch Trabinsky's reps reasonable. He or so

0:31:00.720 --> 0:31:03.880
<v Speaker 1>B grade on Jordan Howard Tarik though on the bench.

0:31:03.920 --> 0:31:06.640
<v Speaker 1>He hit rock bottom Monday night, targeted just once, finished

0:31:06.640 --> 0:31:09.080
<v Speaker 1>with negative six receiving yards, and I don't see the

0:31:09.120 --> 0:31:11.920
<v Speaker 1>bombs back coming here. Against Baltimore, they've allowed the fourth

0:31:11.960 --> 0:31:14.479
<v Speaker 1>fewest receptions to running backs and have not given up

0:31:14.480 --> 0:31:17.120
<v Speaker 1>a passing touchdown through the air to the position. So

0:31:17.160 --> 0:31:19.920
<v Speaker 1>he's on the bench going to the passing game. Everybody's

0:31:19.920 --> 0:31:23.800
<v Speaker 1>on the bench except Zach Miller. Now we all know

0:31:23.960 --> 0:31:26.520
<v Speaker 1>rookie quarterbacks do the dump off stuff to the tight end.

0:31:26.520 --> 0:31:28.320
<v Speaker 1>We've seen it for years, we saw it last week.

0:31:28.400 --> 0:31:31.480
<v Speaker 1>It already, it's already starting. Miller will have a decent

0:31:31.520 --> 0:31:33.920
<v Speaker 1>shot at finding the end zone for a second consecutive

0:31:33.920 --> 0:31:36.240
<v Speaker 1>week against the Baltimore defense that gave up the three

0:31:36.240 --> 0:31:39.239
<v Speaker 1>touchdown to Marcedes Lewis a couple of weekends ago. This

0:31:39.320 --> 0:31:42.479
<v Speaker 1>is an opportunity for Zach Miller and for those another

0:31:42.560 --> 0:31:44.479
<v Speaker 1>another of the tight end sleep We had all these

0:31:44.520 --> 0:31:47.760
<v Speaker 1>slight tight end sleepers coming out our ears today. It's

0:31:47.760 --> 0:31:49.880
<v Speaker 1>a good thing too, because the tight end position has

0:31:49.880 --> 0:31:51.800
<v Speaker 1>been a disaster this season. If you don't one of

0:31:51.840 --> 0:31:54.760
<v Speaker 1>the good ones. Uh Drabinsky showed plenty of talent on

0:31:54.800 --> 0:31:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Monday Night, but it didn't e quit into fantasy stats

0:31:57.040 --> 0:31:59.360
<v Speaker 1>at all, just hundred twenty eight passing yards. He's got

0:31:59.360 --> 0:32:01.600
<v Speaker 1>almost no steaving talent to work with. Everybody else is

0:32:01.640 --> 0:32:03.840
<v Speaker 1>on the bench. Let's go to the Baltimore side. Already

0:32:03.840 --> 0:32:05.800
<v Speaker 1>told you Alex collins Is might take a chance on

0:32:05.920 --> 0:32:09.080
<v Speaker 1>me running back. He has a B grade here also

0:32:09.200 --> 0:32:11.960
<v Speaker 1>with a B grade, and it pains me, bunk Allen,

0:32:12.360 --> 0:32:15.320
<v Speaker 1>He'll yield a lot of carries to Alex Collins, who

0:32:15.400 --> 0:32:18.080
<v Speaker 1>is literally doubling up his yards per carry, but he

0:32:18.080 --> 0:32:20.440
<v Speaker 1>should be able to shine as a receiver against a

0:32:20.440 --> 0:32:24.440
<v Speaker 1>group of Chicago linebackers potentially missing three or four starters

0:32:24.480 --> 0:32:27.840
<v Speaker 1>in this game. Alan bunk Allen five or six targets

0:32:27.880 --> 0:32:30.440
<v Speaker 1>in every game since Danny Wood had went down B

0:32:30.560 --> 0:32:33.320
<v Speaker 1>B a B grade in PPRC grade in standard scoring leagues.

0:32:33.560 --> 0:32:35.200
<v Speaker 1>The only other starter I've got for you here is

0:32:35.240 --> 0:32:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Mike Wallace, who remains the downfield threat for Baltimore, but

0:32:38.120 --> 0:32:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Prince and mukamarket shadow him and that might effective effectively

0:32:42.080 --> 0:32:44.840
<v Speaker 1>neutralize him. Mukamara in the limited duty this year is

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Ben Good. Chicago basically shut down Minnesota's outside passing game

0:32:49.760 --> 0:32:53.880
<v Speaker 1>on Monday Night, although Green Bay, Tampa and Pittsburgh had

0:32:53.920 --> 0:32:56.160
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver's post at least seventy five yards and or

0:32:56.200 --> 0:32:59.040
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown against the baron earlier matchups. Whillace is your

0:32:59.040 --> 0:33:00.800
<v Speaker 1>home run threat. You know the done Wallace. You just

0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:02.680
<v Speaker 1>gotta make the best on his four targets and maybe

0:33:02.720 --> 0:33:05.479
<v Speaker 1>that happens here. Everybody else is on the bench. Flaka,

0:33:05.520 --> 0:33:07.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't need to tell you bad. He's been Jeremy

0:33:07.360 --> 0:33:09.960
<v Speaker 1>Macklin total dud since week two. Let's go to our

0:33:09.960 --> 0:33:15.160
<v Speaker 1>next matchup, Tampa Bay taking on the Arizona Cardinals. For

0:33:15.200 --> 0:33:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Tampa Bay, Mike Evans kind of an inconsistent season, and

0:33:18.600 --> 0:33:21.520
<v Speaker 1>now he draws Patrick Peterson, another in a series of

0:33:21.520 --> 0:33:24.120
<v Speaker 1>tough matchups for Evans. What do you think, Yeah, it's

0:33:24.120 --> 0:33:27.920
<v Speaker 1>a really tough matchup. Hilton, Bryant, Garson, Jeffrey all had

0:33:28.000 --> 0:33:31.520
<v Speaker 1>rough mount outings against Patrick Peterson. I think Bryant was

0:33:31.560 --> 0:33:33.960
<v Speaker 1>the only one to score. I gave Mike Evans a

0:33:34.000 --> 0:33:39.000
<v Speaker 1>B grade. You're probably not benching him, but uh, don't

0:33:39.000 --> 0:33:42.640
<v Speaker 1>get too excited about this matchup. Deshan Jackson, however, I'm

0:33:42.800 --> 0:33:47.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm really excited that for that matchup he draws Justin Bethel,

0:33:47.320 --> 0:33:51.560
<v Speaker 1>who's been really exploited this this year. Deshan Jackson is

0:33:51.600 --> 0:33:55.360
<v Speaker 1>averaging a whopping eighteen yards per catch, and the number

0:33:55.400 --> 0:33:59.480
<v Speaker 1>two receiver against the Bucks is also allowing eighteen yards

0:33:59.520 --> 0:34:03.200
<v Speaker 1>per catch to non number one wide receivers. The Cardinals

0:34:03.200 --> 0:34:06.440
<v Speaker 1>have also allowed seven wide receivers to either score or

0:34:06.480 --> 0:34:08.799
<v Speaker 1>get a hundred yards against them, and only one of

0:34:08.800 --> 0:34:12.040
<v Speaker 1>them was the number one wide receiver. Secondary receivers are crushing.

0:34:13.000 --> 0:34:16.120
<v Speaker 1>The crushing the Cardinals is here, and so I love

0:34:16.200 --> 0:34:18.239
<v Speaker 1>Deshan Jackson and gave him a B great as well.

0:34:18.400 --> 0:34:21.799
<v Speaker 1>You like Jackson better than Evans, I just might. I mean,

0:34:21.840 --> 0:34:25.239
<v Speaker 1>it's just the matchup. It's it's just the matchup. I mean,

0:34:25.280 --> 0:34:27.239
<v Speaker 1>de Sean Jackson only needs to catch four or five

0:34:27.239 --> 0:34:29.120
<v Speaker 1>passes to get to a hundred yards the way he's

0:34:29.120 --> 0:34:31.440
<v Speaker 1>going now, when the average eighteen yards to catch, that

0:34:31.480 --> 0:34:33.400
<v Speaker 1>makes it pretty easy. I will say this about Evans

0:34:33.400 --> 0:34:35.319
<v Speaker 1>and Pat Pete real quick. I used to do your

0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:37.400
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver rankings way back in the way for a

0:34:37.480 --> 0:34:40.360
<v Speaker 1>fantasy victory Church. I remember doing a detailed look at

0:34:40.360 --> 0:34:43.680
<v Speaker 1>all the touchdowns and Patrick Peterson. It's all the tall

0:34:43.719 --> 0:34:46.239
<v Speaker 1>guys six three or higher for like two to three

0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:48.840
<v Speaker 1>years are the only ones who scored against Patrick Peterson.

0:34:48.840 --> 0:34:51.080
<v Speaker 1>And I like that. Evans certainly falls in that category.

0:34:51.120 --> 0:34:53.080
<v Speaker 1>But it's yeah, tough matchic like, yeah, he still gets

0:34:53.080 --> 0:34:56.560
<v Speaker 1>a B grades absolutely. Jamis Winston. I gave an a grade.

0:34:57.000 --> 0:34:59.279
<v Speaker 1>He's been crushing at the last three weeks forty one

0:34:59.320 --> 0:35:02.720
<v Speaker 1>past attempts three thirty yards per game. Over that stretch,

0:35:03.000 --> 0:35:05.960
<v Speaker 1>he scored in all but one of his NFL games,

0:35:05.960 --> 0:35:09.320
<v Speaker 1>and he faces a Cardinals defense that allows two touchdowns

0:35:09.320 --> 0:35:12.560
<v Speaker 1>per week. Two quarterbacks on average. UH top twelve quarterback

0:35:12.640 --> 0:35:15.799
<v Speaker 1>for me this week. Cameron brad scored three three weeks

0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:18.600
<v Speaker 1>in a row. He's caught four balls or got over

0:35:19.000 --> 0:35:21.320
<v Speaker 1>over six targets in every one of those games. He

0:35:21.440 --> 0:35:23.600
<v Speaker 1>led the league in touchdowns. Last year, Ertz and Doyle

0:35:23.640 --> 0:35:26.400
<v Speaker 1>had good games against the Cardinals. I think Bryd's a

0:35:26.480 --> 0:35:30.279
<v Speaker 1>C start. Doug Martin I give a B start to.

0:35:30.800 --> 0:35:34.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm mostly hoping for volume here. The last three backs

0:35:34.120 --> 0:35:37.480
<v Speaker 1>that have played Arizona got between seventy five and nine

0:35:37.840 --> 0:35:40.920
<v Speaker 1>total yards, and I think with four fourteen touches and

0:35:40.920 --> 0:35:42.920
<v Speaker 1>five point seven yards per carrying his first game, if

0:35:42.920 --> 0:35:45.279
<v Speaker 1>he gets similar workload this week, he could be a

0:35:45.320 --> 0:35:51.480
<v Speaker 1>decent B start bench. The rest over on Arizona Larry Fitzgerald,

0:35:51.520 --> 0:35:53.840
<v Speaker 1>I think he's pretty automatic start. He's third in the

0:35:53.920 --> 0:35:57.080
<v Speaker 1>league in targets and receptions, and this week gets matched

0:35:57.160 --> 0:36:00.239
<v Speaker 1>up against one one of Pro football focuses lowest rated

0:36:00.280 --> 0:36:06.279
<v Speaker 1>cornerbacks in Robert McLean UH. Across from him, John Brown UH.

0:36:06.480 --> 0:36:09.080
<v Speaker 1>He the games that he was healthy for, he was

0:36:09.160 --> 0:36:13.920
<v Speaker 1>second in targets behind Fitzgerald and the and the Bucks

0:36:13.920 --> 0:36:17.200
<v Speaker 1>have allowed eleven different receivers to gain either fifty yards

0:36:17.320 --> 0:36:20.080
<v Speaker 1>or a touchdown. And that's just in four weeks, eleven

0:36:20.080 --> 0:36:22.959
<v Speaker 1>different receivers. So I think there's the opportunity for him there.

0:36:23.600 --> 0:36:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Carson Palmer, I'm actually given an A grade. He's attempting

0:36:26.960 --> 0:36:29.960
<v Speaker 1>forty five passes per game. His offensive line and running

0:36:30.000 --> 0:36:32.680
<v Speaker 1>game are terrible, so he has to Palmer averages three

0:36:33.040 --> 0:36:34.960
<v Speaker 1>fifteen yards per game and the Bucks are allowing three

0:36:35.360 --> 0:36:37.399
<v Speaker 1>fifteen yards per game, and the Bucks are also giving

0:36:37.480 --> 0:36:39.839
<v Speaker 1>up two touchdowns per game to quarterbacks. I think it's

0:36:39.840 --> 0:36:43.520
<v Speaker 1>a nice, nice matchup for Palmer, uh at the in

0:36:43.520 --> 0:36:47.280
<v Speaker 1>the running game. Yeah, what about Adrian Peterson? Yeah, Adrian Peterson,

0:36:47.400 --> 0:36:49.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm kind of in waiting sea mode. I did

0:36:49.440 --> 0:36:52.319
<v Speaker 1>give him a C grade. But if he slots right

0:36:52.360 --> 0:36:55.000
<v Speaker 1>into that ten to fifteen touches that Chris Johnson has,

0:36:55.800 --> 0:36:58.200
<v Speaker 1>uh that the volume might get him there. The Bucks

0:36:58.200 --> 0:37:00.279
<v Speaker 1>have only allowed one rushing touchdown, but he I get

0:37:00.400 --> 0:37:04.280
<v Speaker 1>enough volume. As far as Ellington, they're they're Ellington's getting

0:37:04.320 --> 0:37:07.000
<v Speaker 1>ten targets in over seventy yards per game over the

0:37:07.040 --> 0:37:09.520
<v Speaker 1>last three weeks. It's it's hard to BENJ might give

0:37:09.560 --> 0:37:11.799
<v Speaker 1>him a B grade just on that safe PPR floor,

0:37:11.920 --> 0:37:14.440
<v Speaker 1>and Allington's usage won't change with Adrian Peterson. It's like

0:37:14.560 --> 0:37:19.120
<v Speaker 1>Peterson's into his receptions. No way. Peterson the receiving back

0:37:19.320 --> 0:37:22.279
<v Speaker 1>nah and and the Buxer bottom seven in receiving yards

0:37:22.280 --> 0:37:24.440
<v Speaker 1>allowed to running back. So that's prime for Ellington. I'm

0:37:24.480 --> 0:37:28.360
<v Speaker 1>benching everyone else. Sounds good. Let's let's try to squeeze

0:37:28.400 --> 0:37:30.520
<v Speaker 1>in one more matchup into this segment, and that is

0:37:30.960 --> 0:37:35.920
<v Speaker 1>the Los Angeles Chargers at the Oakland Raiders. Bryan. The

0:37:35.960 --> 0:37:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles the Chargers passing attack is always really difficult

0:37:39.960 --> 0:37:42.760
<v Speaker 1>to figure out. With the exception of one guy, Keenan Allen,

0:37:42.800 --> 0:37:44.879
<v Speaker 1>seems to always get his targets. How do you feel

0:37:44.920 --> 0:37:47.480
<v Speaker 1>about Keenan Allen in this matchup? Yeah? I give Keenan

0:37:47.480 --> 0:37:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Allen in a he will see a slot corner t J. Carey,

0:37:50.160 --> 0:37:53.040
<v Speaker 1>who Pro Football Focus has ranked nineties six out of

0:37:53.040 --> 0:37:56.239
<v Speaker 1>a hundred and fifteen cornerbacks. So yeah, and two of

0:37:56.280 --> 0:37:58.560
<v Speaker 1>the last three slot receivers to face Oakland have caught

0:37:58.560 --> 0:38:00.880
<v Speaker 1>at least six passes, So that's probably safe floor for

0:38:01.000 --> 0:38:03.359
<v Speaker 1>Keenan Allen. He's caught six passes in a quarter before,

0:38:03.440 --> 0:38:06.080
<v Speaker 1>so he gets the eight grade. I'm giving Tyrell Williams

0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:08.800
<v Speaker 1>and Travis Benjamin to see here. Even though Mike Williams

0:38:08.840 --> 0:38:11.719
<v Speaker 1>is likely to make his pro debut, Williams is on

0:38:11.719 --> 0:38:13.279
<v Speaker 1>the bench for me. I gotta see him do something

0:38:13.320 --> 0:38:16.120
<v Speaker 1>before he is startable in fantasy. But um, as for

0:38:16.160 --> 0:38:19.839
<v Speaker 1>Williams and Benjamin, Oakland's outside cornerbacks Shawn Smith and David

0:38:19.880 --> 0:38:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Amerson have not been too good this year. Both both

0:38:23.080 --> 0:38:25.799
<v Speaker 1>have allowed a pass the rating about hundred and forty

0:38:25.840 --> 0:38:30.759
<v Speaker 1>plus in their coverage hundred plus both individually over a

0:38:30.800 --> 0:38:34.799
<v Speaker 1>hundred and four. They've allowed to combine four touchdowns as well,

0:38:34.880 --> 0:38:37.319
<v Speaker 1>So I like Williams and Benjamin this game. Benjamin caught

0:38:37.320 --> 0:38:40.120
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown in one game and top two hundred yards

0:38:40.120 --> 0:38:42.080
<v Speaker 1>in the other against Oakland last year, so I'll give

0:38:42.120 --> 0:38:45.080
<v Speaker 1>him both the start. And that certainly makes Philip Rivers startable.

0:38:45.400 --> 0:38:47.760
<v Speaker 1>Uh he gets to be Uh. He totaled six touchdowns

0:38:47.760 --> 0:38:50.600
<v Speaker 1>against the Raiders last year, who are allowing a completion

0:38:50.640 --> 0:38:54.359
<v Speaker 1>percentage of sixty nine this season. And Rivers just put

0:38:54.400 --> 0:38:56.840
<v Speaker 1>up a hat trick on the road against the Vontageiant secondary.

0:38:56.880 --> 0:38:59.319
<v Speaker 1>So he's in play here. I should have mentioned Hunter

0:38:59.400 --> 0:39:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Henry first. He gets to be as well. Uh, he

0:39:01.719 --> 0:39:05.000
<v Speaker 1>was actually utilized again last week in games where he's

0:39:05.040 --> 0:39:07.960
<v Speaker 1>actually been targeted this year. Yeah, which is three or

0:39:07.960 --> 0:39:09.880
<v Speaker 1>five or three of them. Yes, he's been great in

0:39:09.920 --> 0:39:12.160
<v Speaker 1>those three games. Yeah, he's scored or top to eight

0:39:12.239 --> 0:39:14.439
<v Speaker 1>yrs in those games at least throwing the ball once

0:39:14.480 --> 0:39:16.840
<v Speaker 1>and something good is gonna happen. So he gets to

0:39:16.880 --> 0:39:19.440
<v Speaker 1>be I'm putting Gates on the bench. He finally has

0:39:19.440 --> 0:39:20.840
<v Speaker 1>what he needs to get into the Hall of Fame

0:39:21.920 --> 0:39:25.160
<v Speaker 1>now he but who knows watch Gates came score three touch.

0:39:25.239 --> 0:39:27.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't think. I don't think that Henry is the

0:39:27.200 --> 0:39:28.920
<v Speaker 1>guy you want to start. I think Gates at this

0:39:29.000 --> 0:39:33.080
<v Speaker 1>point is injury backup guy to Hunter Henry. Yeah, I'm

0:39:33.120 --> 0:39:35.360
<v Speaker 1>with you, but uh, you never know what old man value.

0:39:35.360 --> 0:39:38.200
<v Speaker 1>What tricks he can is up as sleeve. But anyway, lastly,

0:39:38.239 --> 0:39:40.440
<v Speaker 1>for the Chargers, Melvin Gordon gets to He looked awesome

0:39:40.520 --> 0:39:42.919
<v Speaker 1>last week. The Raiders just allowed hundred and twelve yards

0:39:42.960 --> 0:39:45.840
<v Speaker 1>to C. J. Anderson and one to Jaboris Alan. Gordon

0:39:45.880 --> 0:39:49.000
<v Speaker 1>can certainly put up those numbers. Um over to Oakland

0:39:49.040 --> 0:39:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Side Derek Carr is making his return from a broken back, yes,

0:39:53.080 --> 0:39:55.160
<v Speaker 1>broken and by the way, two weeks early, which I

0:39:55.200 --> 0:39:57.279
<v Speaker 1>don't like, to be honest, not that I wanted to

0:39:57.280 --> 0:39:59.640
<v Speaker 1>see more of EJ. Manual, but I'm nervous about him

0:39:59.640 --> 0:40:02.600
<v Speaker 1>getting with this game. Yeah I need to. I'll give

0:40:02.680 --> 0:40:05.799
<v Speaker 1>him a c No, I'm gonna put him on the bench.

0:40:05.880 --> 0:40:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Screw it. He's on the bench. Chargers are allowing just

0:40:07.640 --> 0:40:10.240
<v Speaker 1>like two yards and one and a half passing touchdowns,

0:40:10.280 --> 0:40:13.080
<v Speaker 1>pretty game to quarterbacks. That's probably cars ceiling in this

0:40:13.120 --> 0:40:14.880
<v Speaker 1>game where I said I'd like the running backs that

0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:17.120
<v Speaker 1>you leaned on heavily here. So he's on the bench

0:40:17.160 --> 0:40:19.560
<v Speaker 1>for me, and Amari Cooper is not on the bench,

0:40:19.600 --> 0:40:21.720
<v Speaker 1>but he's pretty damn close. I'm giving him to see.

0:40:21.760 --> 0:40:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Here's his yardage output in the last three games, six

0:40:24.360 --> 0:40:28.040
<v Speaker 1>nine eight. That's unbelievable from Mary Cooper yet never I

0:40:28.120 --> 0:40:31.359
<v Speaker 1>never thought that would happen, and even one game, let

0:40:31.400 --> 0:40:34.359
<v Speaker 1>alone three straight single digit yardage games for a coups.

0:40:34.400 --> 0:40:36.520
<v Speaker 1>So if you're a Mary Cooper owner, grab a coin

0:40:36.600 --> 0:40:38.480
<v Speaker 1>and flip it, because here are his four career box

0:40:38.520 --> 0:40:41.799
<v Speaker 1>scores against the Chargers five for one, thirty three and one.

0:40:42.160 --> 0:40:45.000
<v Speaker 1>Then two for ten, then six for one, thirty eight

0:40:45.000 --> 0:40:48.600
<v Speaker 1>and one, and then one for twenty eight. So if

0:40:48.600 --> 0:40:50.799
<v Speaker 1>science tells us anything that he's had a game here

0:40:50.840 --> 0:40:53.399
<v Speaker 1>based on that that that pattern, But anyway he gets

0:40:53.400 --> 0:40:55.839
<v Speaker 1>to see until he starts showing you can catch the ball,

0:40:56.000 --> 0:40:58.440
<v Speaker 1>I will give him. Michael Crabtree and a though return

0:40:58.520 --> 0:41:00.640
<v Speaker 1>to action last week top to eight ds and scored.

0:41:00.680 --> 0:41:02.839
<v Speaker 1>He scored in all four meetings with the Chargers, who

0:41:02.880 --> 0:41:05.400
<v Speaker 1>have allowed the second most wide receiver touchdowns, and at

0:41:05.480 --> 0:41:07.319
<v Speaker 1>least one wide receiver has scored in all five of

0:41:07.360 --> 0:41:09.919
<v Speaker 1>the l a's games. Jared Cook is on the bench.

0:41:09.960 --> 0:41:12.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm close to giving him a C grade because tight

0:41:12.480 --> 0:41:15.160
<v Speaker 1>end is such a waste land. Uh Cook, We've given

0:41:15.160 --> 0:41:17.160
<v Speaker 1>you like three or four guys already that you can

0:41:17.200 --> 0:41:19.640
<v Speaker 1>take a chance on. Too many, too many tight ends already,

0:41:19.640 --> 0:41:21.799
<v Speaker 1>and the Chargers are bottom five and targets allowed to

0:41:21.800 --> 0:41:23.919
<v Speaker 1>tight end. So not a great opportunity for Cook here.

0:41:24.440 --> 0:41:26.640
<v Speaker 1>Marshawn Lynch show, I will give him a b uh

0:41:26.680 --> 0:41:28.920
<v Speaker 1>your boy charge. The Chargers are allowing five and a

0:41:28.920 --> 0:41:31.600
<v Speaker 1>half yards per carry and have allowed hundred and five

0:41:31.680 --> 0:41:34.000
<v Speaker 1>more rushing yards than the next closest team so far

0:41:34.080 --> 0:41:37.920
<v Speaker 1>this year, so Lynch gets a beach. It's we urge people,

0:41:38.000 --> 0:41:40.759
<v Speaker 1>at least I did two weeks ago to go buy

0:41:40.840 --> 0:41:42.480
<v Speaker 1>low on Lynch, and I think we're gonna be paid

0:41:42.520 --> 0:41:45.200
<v Speaker 1>off last week. It's gonna pay off this week. I

0:41:45.200 --> 0:41:47.000
<v Speaker 1>think he will as well. And I also think jay

0:41:47.080 --> 0:41:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Len Shard will. That's why he used might take a

0:41:48.600 --> 0:41:50.839
<v Speaker 1>chance on me running back. We're gonna work in one

0:41:50.880 --> 0:41:56.600
<v Speaker 1>call here, Ben, Hello, Hell, hi Ben? What's up? How's

0:41:56.600 --> 0:42:00.720
<v Speaker 1>it going with again? Good? Thank you, excellent? Thankfull? Um.

0:42:00.760 --> 0:42:04.319
<v Speaker 1>I got a question. I made a bonehead trade. Um.

0:42:04.400 --> 0:42:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Do you guys like uh Kamara more than Abdullah? Yeah? Okay.

0:42:10.800 --> 0:42:13.240
<v Speaker 1>The problem with the dula is, you know, Abdulah doesn't

0:42:13.239 --> 0:42:15.839
<v Speaker 1>get any receptions, that's theoretic. He doesn't get any goal

0:42:15.920 --> 0:42:18.799
<v Speaker 1>line work. That's Zack center in the rare answers is

0:42:18.840 --> 0:42:21.200
<v Speaker 1>that they even run inside the five. So he's just

0:42:21.320 --> 0:42:24.280
<v Speaker 1>the yardish guy between the twenties and that just doesn't

0:42:24.280 --> 0:42:26.560
<v Speaker 1>move the needle much. The second leg of that is

0:42:26.640 --> 0:42:29.839
<v Speaker 1>I had to trade Matt Ryan and Abdullah to get

0:42:29.880 --> 0:42:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Kamara and Treke Cohen. So I'm cool with that, right,

0:42:33.160 --> 0:42:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I like it? I like it? Now? Should I know?

0:42:36.239 --> 0:42:39.719
<v Speaker 1>Do I drop Treke Cohen and pick up Alex Collins

0:42:40.560 --> 0:42:44.960
<v Speaker 1>or um Foreman from Houston. I'd probably go with Alex

0:42:45.000 --> 0:42:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Cohn's on that I I don't know Cohen's. Cohen's snap

0:42:48.600 --> 0:42:51.759
<v Speaker 1>percentage keeps going down and Alex cons keeps going up.

0:42:52.040 --> 0:42:54.200
<v Speaker 1>I think it's it's only a matter of time Cohen.

0:42:54.560 --> 0:42:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Alex CON's is the most explosive back for the Ravens.

0:42:57.600 --> 0:43:01.319
<v Speaker 1>I'd probably I'd probably go after Alex Collins. All right,

0:43:01.400 --> 0:43:03.600
<v Speaker 1>if I speak quickly, can I can I ask one more?

0:43:03.840 --> 0:43:06.319
<v Speaker 1>You get too? Because it is not lightning round? Yes, yeah,

0:43:06.560 --> 0:43:10.120
<v Speaker 1>sorry uge Um, Mike Evans. You guys are just talking

0:43:10.120 --> 0:43:14.160
<v Speaker 1>about possibly he's a b in my PPR league. I'm

0:43:14.160 --> 0:43:17.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna run him off. I got Crabtree, U, Tate, Davante Adams,

0:43:17.719 --> 0:43:21.560
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Coleman, and Buck Allen. You may not be a

0:43:21.600 --> 0:43:23.760
<v Speaker 1>starter in that scenario. I'd start him over Buck Allen,

0:43:23.840 --> 0:43:25.719
<v Speaker 1>but that's it. I think I like all the other

0:43:25.760 --> 0:43:29.080
<v Speaker 1>receivers better. All right, guys, you're the best. I'm trying

0:43:29.120 --> 0:43:32.120
<v Speaker 1>to throw while you guys out there for in ups

0:43:32.200 --> 0:43:34.640
<v Speaker 1>and get more and more listeners out here. Thank you,

0:43:35.160 --> 0:43:37.759
<v Speaker 1>I love you guys. Take care, appreciate it Ben, It's

0:43:37.840 --> 0:43:40.440
<v Speaker 1>just in Milwaukee at the Pops Theater. Man is that beautiful?

0:43:40.600 --> 0:43:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Holy cow, what a venue that was terrific. When we

0:43:43.480 --> 0:43:46.280
<v Speaker 1>come back, five tough questions for a panel of experts,

0:43:46.320 --> 0:43:48.360
<v Speaker 1>you can play along, So if you can go five

0:43:48.520 --> 0:43:51.120
<v Speaker 1>and oh. When we return to Fantasy Football Weekly on

0:43:51.200 --> 0:44:09.280
<v Speaker 1>the Fans of Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan, Welcome

0:44:09.280 --> 0:44:12.680
<v Speaker 1>back Fantasy Football Weekly, Hour number two. My co host today,

0:44:13.200 --> 0:44:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Scott Fish is inaugural show. Brian Johnson, Welcome back. See

0:44:21.040 --> 0:44:24.520
<v Speaker 1>here's the deal, Scott. No, she's not listening. Mike is

0:44:24.560 --> 0:44:26.880
<v Speaker 1>not on. That's part of it. That's part of becoming

0:44:26.880 --> 0:44:30.600
<v Speaker 1>a savvy radio. You know, you can do a million podcast,

0:44:30.680 --> 0:44:32.640
<v Speaker 1>but the podcast you just turn on the record. But

0:44:32.719 --> 0:44:34.480
<v Speaker 1>then you don't have to worry about it. Again, it's

0:44:34.480 --> 0:44:37.600
<v Speaker 1>a little trick here here. You could even you know,

0:44:37.640 --> 0:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>if you turn your mic on and you'll talk right

0:44:39.040 --> 0:44:43.520
<v Speaker 1>through the commercials or whatever. I want to say. Yeah,

0:44:43.520 --> 0:44:45.200
<v Speaker 1>I just said my wife is listening, so we get

0:44:45.239 --> 0:44:48.759
<v Speaker 1>one extra listener this week. She doesn't. She doesn't listen

0:44:48.840 --> 0:44:54.480
<v Speaker 1>every week. Question number one. Absolutely, to this point, he

0:44:54.520 --> 0:44:57.200
<v Speaker 1>hasn't scored a single touchdown and he's averaging just three

0:44:57.239 --> 0:45:00.960
<v Speaker 1>yards per carry. But from this point, four reward will

0:45:01.040 --> 0:45:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Cardinals running back Adrian Peterson being RB one, r B

0:45:05.040 --> 0:45:10.839
<v Speaker 1>two flex or bench scott flex. Uh. I think he's

0:45:10.840 --> 0:45:13.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna get that ten of fifteen touches per game, but

0:45:13.320 --> 0:45:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's gonna get much more. That offensive

0:45:16.520 --> 0:45:19.960
<v Speaker 1>line is just terrible, just terrible, and he doesn't contribute

0:45:19.960 --> 0:45:22.080
<v Speaker 1>in the passing game. I think the offense is gonna

0:45:22.120 --> 0:45:24.960
<v Speaker 1>run about how it ran with Chris Johnson. Maybe Adrian

0:45:24.960 --> 0:45:28.400
<v Speaker 1>Peterson's a little better, but I think he's purely in

0:45:28.560 --> 0:45:33.960
<v Speaker 1>flex mode. Brian, Yeah, I think I'm gonna put him

0:45:34.000 --> 0:45:37.240
<v Speaker 1>on the bench. I don't like Peterson for many many reasons.

0:45:37.400 --> 0:45:39.200
<v Speaker 1>He's not catching any passes. We know that. I think

0:45:39.320 --> 0:45:41.000
<v Speaker 1>Edward Scissor Hans has a better chance to catch and

0:45:41.040 --> 0:45:43.799
<v Speaker 1>passes out of that backfield. And here's some things a

0:45:43.960 --> 0:45:47.680
<v Speaker 1>d hasn't done since the season, Uh, score a touchdown,

0:45:49.120 --> 0:45:54.000
<v Speaker 1>get twenty carries, top thirty three rushing yards, and I

0:45:54.040 --> 0:45:56.399
<v Speaker 1>don't like his chance of doing any of those things

0:45:56.400 --> 0:45:58.640
<v Speaker 1>behind the Arizona line, and is ranked thirty and none

0:45:58.680 --> 0:46:03.160
<v Speaker 1>blocking by Football outside their schedule through Week fourteen. When

0:46:03.160 --> 0:46:05.440
<v Speaker 1>I think David Johnson comes back at the very latest

0:46:05.520 --> 0:46:08.040
<v Speaker 1>is not that great. You have the Rams on there twice,

0:46:08.120 --> 0:46:12.399
<v Speaker 1>you have a by Tampa Bay, Seattle, Houston, Tennessee. There's

0:46:12.440 --> 0:46:15.040
<v Speaker 1>only two soft matchups between now and week fourteen. So

0:46:15.200 --> 0:46:19.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm putting Peterson on the bench on my team. The

0:46:19.080 --> 0:46:22.320
<v Speaker 1>correct answer is flex because the opportunity is so good

0:46:22.360 --> 0:46:24.400
<v Speaker 1>for him. He there will be opportunities. He will get

0:46:24.400 --> 0:46:26.840
<v Speaker 1>almost all the carries. He is better than the undead

0:46:26.880 --> 0:46:30.720
<v Speaker 1>corpse of the tap dancing Nancy Chris Johnson. Carson Palmer

0:46:30.719 --> 0:46:34.000
<v Speaker 1>plays almost sixty of his snaps under center, and that's

0:46:34.040 --> 0:46:37.239
<v Speaker 1>critical for Adrian as well. We don't know how good

0:46:37.320 --> 0:46:40.520
<v Speaker 1>or bad he really is because we've seen so little

0:46:40.520 --> 0:46:43.160
<v Speaker 1>of him. We know he's not elite Adrian Peterson, but

0:46:43.520 --> 0:46:47.320
<v Speaker 1>in all probability, he's a step up from Chris Johnson.

0:46:47.760 --> 0:46:49.839
<v Speaker 1>And I see the schedule differently than you. I see

0:46:49.880 --> 0:46:52.279
<v Speaker 1>only one top five run defense the rest of the way,

0:46:52.280 --> 0:46:54.359
<v Speaker 1>and that's not from the ten weeks, so I think

0:46:54.360 --> 0:46:57.840
<v Speaker 1>there will be some schedule opportunities. The bad news Arizona

0:46:57.880 --> 0:46:59.880
<v Speaker 1>calls the fewest running places in the NFL, and so

0:47:00.200 --> 0:47:02.160
<v Speaker 1>it will not be a volume opportunity for him. It's

0:47:02.160 --> 0:47:06.719
<v Speaker 1>gonna be goal line stuff and Kenny turn fifteen carries

0:47:06.840 --> 0:47:10.239
<v Speaker 1>into something meaningful of a flex spot. The answer is

0:47:10.560 --> 0:47:18.360
<v Speaker 1>sometimes yeah. Question number two. To this point, he hasn't

0:47:18.360 --> 0:47:21.160
<v Speaker 1>scored a single touchdown and he's averaging just three yards

0:47:21.160 --> 0:47:25.760
<v Speaker 1>per carry. But from this point forward, will Bills running

0:47:25.800 --> 0:47:29.320
<v Speaker 1>back Lashawn McCoy be an RB one in RB two

0:47:29.520 --> 0:47:34.000
<v Speaker 1>a flex or a bench Brian Well. In the preseason,

0:47:34.080 --> 0:47:35.840
<v Speaker 1>McCoy was one of the guys I dubbed as a

0:47:36.040 --> 0:47:38.520
<v Speaker 1>wanna bell I wanna bell cow because he didn't get

0:47:38.719 --> 0:47:40.719
<v Speaker 1>the red zone opportunities that you like to see. But

0:47:40.960 --> 0:47:45.000
<v Speaker 1>he's actually getting those. Uh, that's the vulture. That's the

0:47:45.040 --> 0:47:49.759
<v Speaker 1>sound of Mike Tolbert, Mike Holibart. That's right, nicely done.

0:47:49.800 --> 0:47:52.759
<v Speaker 1>But Shady is fifth and carries from inside the ten

0:47:52.840 --> 0:47:55.919
<v Speaker 1>yard line. He's third in red zone targets among running backs,

0:47:55.920 --> 0:47:58.239
<v Speaker 1>so he's actually getting the opportunities that have evaded him

0:47:58.239 --> 0:48:01.200
<v Speaker 1>in the past. Um He's also has the second highest

0:48:01.200 --> 0:48:05.080
<v Speaker 1>target percentage among running backs. He's getting of the Bill's targets,

0:48:05.600 --> 0:48:08.120
<v Speaker 1>which is a higher higher ratio than wide receivers like

0:48:08.160 --> 0:48:12.279
<v Speaker 1>Julio Jones, Larry Fitzgerald, Pierre Garson, Golden Tate, alshon Jeffrey,

0:48:12.320 --> 0:48:14.280
<v Speaker 1>So he's getting a ton of touches, a lot of opportunity.

0:48:14.280 --> 0:48:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna keep him at the RB one level. I

0:48:16.520 --> 0:48:18.960
<v Speaker 1>do like his schedule moving forward. He as Tampa Bay,

0:48:19.000 --> 0:48:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Oakland at New York Jets, New Orleans at the Chargers.

0:48:23.760 --> 0:48:25.799
<v Speaker 1>Those are five plus matchups in a row. So I'm

0:48:25.840 --> 0:48:28.839
<v Speaker 1>going RB one with Shady, all right, I'm going RB two.

0:48:28.880 --> 0:48:31.399
<v Speaker 1>I like a lot of what Brian just said, but

0:48:31.640 --> 0:48:34.080
<v Speaker 1>I coming in this season, I didn't love Shady because

0:48:34.160 --> 0:48:36.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't like running backs once they hit that eighteen

0:48:36.239 --> 0:48:38.799
<v Speaker 1>hundred yard marker. We just talked about Adrian Peterson when

0:48:38.880 --> 0:48:41.880
<v Speaker 1>he hit the excuse me that eighteen hundred carry marker

0:48:42.239 --> 0:48:44.799
<v Speaker 1>in the last seventeen years. In the last seventeen years,

0:48:44.840 --> 0:48:47.360
<v Speaker 1>only a couple of backs have been really productive after

0:48:47.760 --> 0:48:52.239
<v Speaker 1>eighteen hundred carries, and let's shaw mccoin hit at the

0:48:52.239 --> 0:48:55.279
<v Speaker 1>start of the season. So I don't love him as

0:48:55.280 --> 0:48:57.359
<v Speaker 1>an RB one going forward. I like him as an

0:48:57.440 --> 0:48:58.640
<v Speaker 1>r B two. I think he's going to be a

0:48:58.640 --> 0:49:02.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty consistent RB two based on his based on his touches.

0:49:03.040 --> 0:49:05.879
<v Speaker 1>But man, there are a lot of backs I like better.

0:49:05.960 --> 0:49:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes the correct answer is RB one and Brian uh

0:49:08.960 --> 0:49:11.160
<v Speaker 1>I took many of my talking points. I'll only mentioned

0:49:11.160 --> 0:49:13.280
<v Speaker 1>a couple of other things. Whole new offense from Buffalo,

0:49:13.280 --> 0:49:15.120
<v Speaker 1>It's not uncommon for that to take a month two

0:49:15.120 --> 0:49:17.360
<v Speaker 1>months to really settle in. So I think there's a

0:49:17.360 --> 0:49:20.320
<v Speaker 1>reason to think they get better. And the Bill's defense

0:49:20.400 --> 0:49:22.799
<v Speaker 1>is really good, so the team is never like an

0:49:22.840 --> 0:49:25.319
<v Speaker 1>abandon the run mode because they're down by twenty one

0:49:25.360 --> 0:49:29.919
<v Speaker 1>points at half. So then I believe that McCoy will

0:49:30.000 --> 0:49:33.960
<v Speaker 1>bounce back for all the reasons that Brian elucid elucidated.

0:49:34.000 --> 0:49:37.160
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, there are some desperate McCoy owners

0:49:37.160 --> 0:49:39.759
<v Speaker 1>out there who have languished with him right now are

0:49:39.800 --> 0:49:42.799
<v Speaker 1>probably sitting at zero one two wins, and they're looking

0:49:42.800 --> 0:49:45.600
<v Speaker 1>at a bye week right now for McCoy. If you've

0:49:45.640 --> 0:49:48.759
<v Speaker 1>got a strong team that can afford to maybe take

0:49:48.800 --> 0:49:51.759
<v Speaker 1>a loss this week because you've just acquired McCoy, man

0:49:52.040 --> 0:49:54.920
<v Speaker 1>go after him. What a great opportunity to buy low

0:49:55.080 --> 0:50:01.399
<v Speaker 1>on McCoy. Davanny's hot question number three, Ezekiel Elliott will

0:50:01.440 --> 0:50:07.360
<v Speaker 1>miss zero games, six games or something in between. Scott,

0:50:07.719 --> 0:50:09.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go with zero games. That we've seen it

0:50:09.640 --> 0:50:11.600
<v Speaker 1>with the star Caps, we've seen it with Tom Brady.

0:50:12.160 --> 0:50:14.160
<v Speaker 1>I just I just have a feeling this is gonna

0:50:14.200 --> 0:50:16.359
<v Speaker 1>get hung up in courts. I think that they will

0:50:16.400 --> 0:50:19.960
<v Speaker 1>file another injunction. I'm not sure if he gets it.

0:50:20.000 --> 0:50:22.719
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a fifty fifty coin flip, but uh,

0:50:22.920 --> 0:50:26.200
<v Speaker 1>lawyers are sneaky, and so I'm gonna go with zero games.

0:50:26.239 --> 0:50:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I think they're gonna be able to push it off. Uh. Yeah,

0:50:30.480 --> 0:50:33.560
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of a coin flip between zero and the six.

0:50:33.600 --> 0:50:36.400
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just gonna say it's gonna fall somewhere in between.

0:50:36.760 --> 0:50:39.080
<v Speaker 1>If you know he can get to cut to three

0:50:39.080 --> 0:50:40.520
<v Speaker 1>to four games, I think you should just take his

0:50:40.560 --> 0:50:43.759
<v Speaker 1>medicine and accept that suspension and move on with it. Uh.

0:50:43.920 --> 0:50:45.799
<v Speaker 1>I hope he gets six, just because I don't like

0:50:45.920 --> 0:50:48.040
<v Speaker 1>him as a person as a person and don't have

0:50:48.080 --> 0:50:50.719
<v Speaker 1>him money in my fantasy team, So I say six.

0:50:51.040 --> 0:50:55.040
<v Speaker 1>So maybe you're gonna go six? Yes, Um, most probable

0:50:55.080 --> 0:50:57.800
<v Speaker 1>outcome is that you will get zero for the reasons

0:50:57.800 --> 0:51:02.200
<v Speaker 1>that Scott mentioned. Preliminary injunction will likely be granted because

0:51:02.760 --> 0:51:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Zeke's case seems to have a lot of merit. Remember

0:51:05.200 --> 0:51:07.920
<v Speaker 1>the Texas Court. People are confusing why the Texas Court

0:51:08.520 --> 0:51:10.799
<v Speaker 1>rolled this thing back. It wasn't because the case didn't

0:51:10.840 --> 0:51:12.440
<v Speaker 1>have merit. It's because they said, we're not the right

0:51:12.520 --> 0:51:15.279
<v Speaker 1>jurisdiction and the right jurisdictions new York, so go to

0:51:15.320 --> 0:51:17.040
<v Speaker 1>New York court. So now they're just gonna repeat the

0:51:17.080 --> 0:51:20.880
<v Speaker 1>same process in New York. And among other things, the

0:51:20.960 --> 0:51:23.279
<v Speaker 1>NFL didn't listen to the advice of their own lead investigator.

0:51:23.400 --> 0:51:25.319
<v Speaker 1>And that's going to be I think that that and

0:51:25.360 --> 0:51:27.360
<v Speaker 1>we don't know all the details of what of what

0:51:27.400 --> 0:51:31.480
<v Speaker 1>they're suggesting, but that's that by itself suggests that this

0:51:31.560 --> 0:51:33.960
<v Speaker 1>case will have some merit and that a court will

0:51:33.960 --> 0:51:36.160
<v Speaker 1>look at it and go, yes, we'll grant you a

0:51:36.280 --> 0:51:39.239
<v Speaker 1>preliminary injunction so we can figure out if we want

0:51:39.280 --> 0:51:41.960
<v Speaker 1>to uh, we want to hear a full case on this.

0:51:42.320 --> 0:51:47.719
<v Speaker 1>The most probable outcome is zero games. Devanny's hot question

0:51:47.880 --> 0:51:51.760
<v Speaker 1>number four with the development of Aaron Jones, how nervous

0:51:51.800 --> 0:51:57.960
<v Speaker 1>should time Montgomery owners be a totally chill, be mild

0:51:58.080 --> 0:52:03.200
<v Speaker 1>intestinal cramping or see Harvey Weinstein wants to have a

0:52:03.200 --> 0:52:08.880
<v Speaker 1>private meeting in his office. Level of nervousness, Brian I

0:52:08.960 --> 0:52:10.880
<v Speaker 1>might go d and he wants to have a meeting

0:52:11.080 --> 0:52:14.640
<v Speaker 1>with Bill Cosby in his office, a project that they

0:52:14.719 --> 0:52:17.799
<v Speaker 1>want to work on with you. Uh yeah, I'm very

0:52:17.840 --> 0:52:19.880
<v Speaker 1>worried if I'm a Time Montgomery owner. I've kind of

0:52:19.920 --> 0:52:22.400
<v Speaker 1>expressed this throughout the preseason. I just don't think Montgomery,

0:52:22.640 --> 0:52:25.200
<v Speaker 1>Uh well, he doesn't have the track record of a

0:52:25.280 --> 0:52:28.279
<v Speaker 1>proven running back you can handle twenty carries a game,

0:52:28.280 --> 0:52:31.040
<v Speaker 1>and he's already been knocked out in the first quarter

0:52:31.080 --> 0:52:34.480
<v Speaker 1>of the season. So I'd be very nervous if I'm

0:52:34.480 --> 0:52:36.680
<v Speaker 1>the Time Montgommery owner and he has struggled mightily on

0:52:36.680 --> 0:52:38.840
<v Speaker 1>the ground. He has he does have the highest percentage

0:52:38.880 --> 0:52:42.080
<v Speaker 1>of carries against an extra defender in the box. That's

0:52:42.120 --> 0:52:44.439
<v Speaker 1>from the running back scout who I mentioned last week.

0:52:44.760 --> 0:52:46.520
<v Speaker 1>So he's not like he's a bad running back. But

0:52:46.560 --> 0:52:48.399
<v Speaker 1>I just think Green Bay needs a more traditional back,

0:52:48.520 --> 0:52:50.600
<v Speaker 1>especially near the goal line. So I am I'm taking

0:52:50.640 --> 0:52:53.640
<v Speaker 1>see you're taking the Harvey Weinstein progress. Okay, I'm just

0:52:53.719 --> 0:52:57.480
<v Speaker 1>taking mild discomfort because I think even though Time Montgomery

0:52:57.600 --> 0:53:00.279
<v Speaker 1>is still hurt a little bit, when he does come back,

0:53:00.320 --> 0:53:02.840
<v Speaker 1>and it might be soon, he's still gonna get the

0:53:02.880 --> 0:53:04.759
<v Speaker 1>points in the passing game, and I think he's still

0:53:04.800 --> 0:53:07.600
<v Speaker 1>got a role there even if he gets half Wally

0:53:07.680 --> 0:53:09.800
<v Speaker 1>pipped by Aaron Jones. Aaron Jones is the guy I

0:53:09.880 --> 0:53:12.680
<v Speaker 1>liked in Dynasty coming into the season. I didn't really

0:53:12.719 --> 0:53:14.960
<v Speaker 1>expect this to happen so quick, but Aaron Jones is

0:53:15.000 --> 0:53:17.040
<v Speaker 1>a really good back, and I can see that being

0:53:17.080 --> 0:53:19.400
<v Speaker 1>a timeshare. Aaron Jones is a really good back. He

0:53:19.440 --> 0:53:21.880
<v Speaker 1>looks like a better fit in this offense. He runs harder,

0:53:21.960 --> 0:53:25.799
<v Speaker 1>He's bigger than than Time Montgomery is. That's ed the

0:53:25.880 --> 0:53:29.120
<v Speaker 1>probable outcome here is that Time Montgomery shifts into a

0:53:29.160 --> 0:53:31.040
<v Speaker 1>timeshare change of pace back and he could do a

0:53:31.120 --> 0:53:33.839
<v Speaker 1>lot of what Christian McCaffrey is doing for Carolina. Five

0:53:33.920 --> 0:53:36.840
<v Speaker 1>or six rushes, five or six receptions a game. You know,

0:53:36.920 --> 0:53:38.920
<v Speaker 1>he finishes with seventy yards and a lot of games

0:53:38.920 --> 0:53:42.040
<v Speaker 1>and that's not the end of the world, So only

0:53:42.120 --> 0:53:48.800
<v Speaker 1>mild intestinal cramping. Hot question number five. I hope somewhere

0:53:48.840 --> 0:53:50.920
<v Speaker 1>somebody turned on the radio just for the end of that.

0:53:52.200 --> 0:53:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Should fantasy owners drop every last giant Scott Sure? I

0:53:58.000 --> 0:54:00.359
<v Speaker 1>was thinking that Evan Ingram might be the guy want

0:54:00.480 --> 0:54:03.080
<v Speaker 1>before last week. He he had four catches in forty

0:54:03.160 --> 0:54:07.560
<v Speaker 1>yards in every single game. I really really like Evan Ingram,

0:54:07.560 --> 0:54:09.600
<v Speaker 1>and right now he might end up being their wide

0:54:09.600 --> 0:54:12.400
<v Speaker 1>receiver one even though he's a tight end, right, But

0:54:12.920 --> 0:54:15.600
<v Speaker 1>there are so many tight end options out there on

0:54:15.640 --> 0:54:20.360
<v Speaker 1>a weekly basis that I just just random flex play,

0:54:20.480 --> 0:54:23.319
<v Speaker 1>kind of just match up plays that I don't know

0:54:23.360 --> 0:54:25.319
<v Speaker 1>that you need to roster Ingram. He might be the

0:54:25.320 --> 0:54:29.280
<v Speaker 1>only guy, but let's just go with none. Drop them all, Okay, Brian,

0:54:30.080 --> 0:54:34.000
<v Speaker 1>it hits home, not really, but I'm not dropping Stirling

0:54:34.040 --> 0:54:36.560
<v Speaker 1>Shepherd Evan Ingram just yet. I see both getting at

0:54:36.640 --> 0:54:39.360
<v Speaker 1>least eight targets per game, and that's that's volume that

0:54:39.400 --> 0:54:42.800
<v Speaker 1>you need to roster. And starting in week ten, you

0:54:42.840 --> 0:54:44.080
<v Speaker 1>know you don't have to go through a few rough

0:54:44.200 --> 0:54:48.160
<v Speaker 1>patches here, but we we we can go. Heading into

0:54:48.239 --> 0:54:52.160
<v Speaker 1>the Fantasy playoffs, you have at San Francisco, Kansas City,

0:54:52.440 --> 0:54:56.520
<v Speaker 1>then at Washington, at Oakland and Dallas. Those are plus matchups.

0:54:56.520 --> 0:54:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Are both players outside of Kansas City, uh, most likely?

0:55:00.000 --> 0:55:02.880
<v Speaker 1>And the good stretch continues into week fifteen and sixteen.

0:55:02.880 --> 0:55:05.560
<v Speaker 1>For Shepherd, he has Philly, who has been brutal against

0:55:05.640 --> 0:55:08.479
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers in Arizona, who has struggled mightily against slot

0:55:08.480 --> 0:55:11.520
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers. So I think both are rosterable at the

0:55:11.600 --> 0:55:13.879
<v Speaker 1>very least maybe not startable every week, but don't drop

0:55:13.920 --> 0:55:16.040
<v Speaker 1>him just yet? Is that or is that not factory?

0:55:16.080 --> 0:55:21.080
<v Speaker 1>And Eli Manning getting traded to the Jaguars at this point,

0:55:21.120 --> 0:55:23.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that's auditioned by a subtraction, to

0:55:23.880 --> 0:55:26.319
<v Speaker 1>be honest with you, but no, not factoring that yet,

0:55:26.360 --> 0:55:28.920
<v Speaker 1>I'd be opened those talks bring the board of potty

0:55:29.000 --> 0:55:31.960
<v Speaker 1>to Jersey. The correct answer is dropped all of your giants.

0:55:31.960 --> 0:55:34.000
<v Speaker 1>And it's because of the schedule that you blew by,

0:55:34.239 --> 0:55:37.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, yeah, sure in week ten. In the meantime,

0:55:37.320 --> 0:55:38.960
<v Speaker 1>I got a bye week. I can't. I got bye

0:55:38.960 --> 0:55:41.879
<v Speaker 1>weeks for the next four weeks. I at Denver this week.

0:55:41.960 --> 0:55:44.839
<v Speaker 1>You can't play anybody Seattle the next week, can't play

0:55:44.880 --> 0:55:49.000
<v Speaker 1>anybody bye week. You can't play Shepherd against Seattle and Ingram.

0:55:49.160 --> 0:55:51.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so. I wouldn't. That's where you tag

0:55:51.640 --> 0:55:53.960
<v Speaker 1>him maybe through the middle, I don't know, But you're

0:55:54.040 --> 0:55:56.400
<v Speaker 1>you're even assuming that Shepherd stays in the slot. We

0:55:56.440 --> 0:55:57.840
<v Speaker 1>don't know that that's gonna be the case. They might

0:55:57.880 --> 0:56:01.520
<v Speaker 1>kick him outside as the best receiver. Who knows. Either way,

0:56:01.719 --> 0:56:03.839
<v Speaker 1>You're not gonna feel comfortable. So starting in these guys

0:56:03.840 --> 0:56:06.960
<v Speaker 1>for a month. I can't hold. I can't advocate holding

0:56:06.960 --> 0:56:09.839
<v Speaker 1>guys with zero getting get that you can't. You don't

0:56:09.840 --> 0:56:11.920
<v Speaker 1>feel like starting for one month in the middle of

0:56:11.920 --> 0:56:14.600
<v Speaker 1>these bye weeks. So yeah, schedule might clear up later,

0:56:14.640 --> 0:56:17.360
<v Speaker 1>but somebody's gonna be dropping those guys between now and then. Anyway,

0:56:19.760 --> 0:56:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I really nailed those questions. You did get four out

0:56:23.400 --> 0:56:25.279
<v Speaker 1>of five. I think one high score of all time

0:56:25.440 --> 0:56:28.400
<v Speaker 1>six out of five. John Tube, Uh, let's work in

0:56:28.480 --> 0:56:31.360
<v Speaker 1>one matchup into this segment, and it's the San Francisco

0:56:31.440 --> 0:56:36.120
<v Speaker 1>forty Niners at Washington and already gave you. Brian Hoyers.

0:56:36.160 --> 0:56:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Might take a chance on the quarterback. I like Pierre

0:56:38.440 --> 0:56:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Garson a lot too, is I'm I'm curious. Is there

0:56:42.480 --> 0:56:45.200
<v Speaker 1>an angle for Pierre Garsona in a matchup with Washington.

0:56:45.480 --> 0:56:48.399
<v Speaker 1>Can't think of one. He faces his former team without

0:56:48.440 --> 0:56:51.000
<v Speaker 1>star corner Josh Norman, who's gonna be sidelined with a

0:56:51.080 --> 0:56:53.680
<v Speaker 1>rib injury. Garzon hasn't scored yet, but everything else has

0:56:53.680 --> 0:56:56.560
<v Speaker 1>been great. He's getting targeted ten over ten times in

0:56:56.880 --> 0:57:00.279
<v Speaker 1>each game. He's uh, he's on a fantastic hey from

0:57:00.280 --> 0:57:03.399
<v Speaker 1>a yard of standpoint with Norman, the Redskins have been

0:57:03.520 --> 0:57:06.160
<v Speaker 1>a have been very good against wide receivers, but most

0:57:06.200 --> 0:57:09.400
<v Speaker 1>of that's because Normans their key guy Viking fans listening

0:57:09.400 --> 0:57:11.439
<v Speaker 1>here locally, I mean, imagine if you take Xavier Rhodes

0:57:11.440 --> 0:57:14.239
<v Speaker 1>out of this secondary, what happens? Everything changes? So I

0:57:14.239 --> 0:57:18.680
<v Speaker 1>still like pere Garsona to B level. Marquis Goodwin is

0:57:18.680 --> 0:57:22.600
<v Speaker 1>a deep sleeper. Non number one receivers have outproduced the

0:57:22.680 --> 0:57:26.200
<v Speaker 1>number one wide receivers going up against Washington, and Goodwin's

0:57:26.200 --> 0:57:28.720
<v Speaker 1>coming off a gigantic game last week a target at

0:57:28.720 --> 0:57:33.360
<v Speaker 1>eleven times, So deep sleeper Marquis Goodwin. George Kittle will

0:57:33.360 --> 0:57:36.439
<v Speaker 1>be your fifth tight end deep sleeper that you could

0:57:36.440 --> 0:57:38.880
<v Speaker 1>pick up this week. Now, I went Barker's last week,

0:57:38.880 --> 0:57:41.520
<v Speaker 1>and we're not chasing last week's box score. Though Washington

0:57:41.640 --> 0:57:44.000
<v Speaker 1>is a lot at least ninety five yards or scored

0:57:44.240 --> 0:57:48.520
<v Speaker 1>every starting tight end they have faced. That's Zach Ertz

0:57:48.520 --> 0:57:52.640
<v Speaker 1>and Travis Kelsey would you expect, but also Gerald Everett

0:57:52.760 --> 0:57:56.320
<v Speaker 1>and Jared Cook. If those guys can hammer the Washington

0:57:56.720 --> 0:57:59.600
<v Speaker 1>secondary from the tight end position, why not George Kittle.

0:58:00.320 --> 0:58:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Carlos Hide gets a C grade here. He's got three

0:58:02.480 --> 0:58:05.160
<v Speaker 1>different problems working against him. He's got a hip injury.

0:58:05.160 --> 0:58:08.680
<v Speaker 1>Which isn't healed, Matt Rita's roles increasing. And lastly, the

0:58:08.720 --> 0:58:11.520
<v Speaker 1>Washington run defense is elite, giving up just sixties six

0:58:11.600 --> 0:58:14.720
<v Speaker 1>rushing yards per game. Only one opposing runner has scored.

0:58:15.400 --> 0:58:17.320
<v Speaker 1>Now I could have a little more success of the air.

0:58:17.360 --> 0:58:19.360
<v Speaker 1>The Redskins are giving a forty six yards through the air.

0:58:19.440 --> 0:58:22.400
<v Speaker 1>So maybe together you can chip together a a decent game.

0:58:22.440 --> 0:58:24.360
<v Speaker 1>And that's why he does get a starting grade. For me,

0:58:24.520 --> 0:58:26.800
<v Speaker 1>we'll keep Matt Brita on the bench flipping over the

0:58:26.800 --> 0:58:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Washington side. This entire Washington matchup is basically ghost comes

0:58:31.400 --> 0:58:33.640
<v Speaker 1>down to this man. That guy has been a bust,

0:58:33.640 --> 0:58:35.360
<v Speaker 1>but I gotta start him one more time because of

0:58:35.360 --> 0:58:39.760
<v Speaker 1>this matchup. That's your reoccurring theme for this one. Let's start,

0:58:39.760 --> 0:58:42.040
<v Speaker 1>and most of its relates to the passing game. Kirk

0:58:42.040 --> 0:58:44.480
<v Speaker 1>Cousins gets a B because San Francisco owns a bottom

0:58:44.560 --> 0:58:47.840
<v Speaker 1>ten ranking against opposing quarterbacks in all of these categories

0:58:47.960 --> 0:58:51.360
<v Speaker 1>pass attempts, past completions, and passing yards allowed. They've only

0:58:51.360 --> 0:58:53.920
<v Speaker 1>given up three passing touchdowns. But that feels flukey to me,

0:58:53.920 --> 0:58:57.600
<v Speaker 1>and I think the touchdowns are coming. Terrell Prior. It's

0:58:57.720 --> 0:59:01.200
<v Speaker 1>another in a series of seemingly juicy matchups for Terrelle Pryor.

0:59:01.520 --> 0:59:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully he will do better than what we've seen so

0:59:04.040 --> 0:59:07.120
<v Speaker 1>far Since Week two. Prior owns painful averages of just

0:59:07.160 --> 0:59:09.280
<v Speaker 1>two catches, forty yards and a third of a touchdown

0:59:09.320 --> 0:59:13.160
<v Speaker 1>per game, but San Francisco bottom twelve rankings against opposing

0:59:13.200 --> 0:59:16.480
<v Speaker 1>receivers and targets, receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns allowed,

0:59:16.560 --> 0:59:20.160
<v Speaker 1>so we like Prior. Jamison Crowder has been invisible, but

0:59:20.280 --> 0:59:23.440
<v Speaker 1>John Gruden. J Gruden vows to get him more involved,

0:59:23.840 --> 0:59:26.480
<v Speaker 1>and it should start this week since face arguably the

0:59:26.480 --> 0:59:29.680
<v Speaker 1>worst slack corner in the league wa Kawan Williams, Kwan

0:59:29.760 --> 0:59:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Williams at Kwan Kwan Williams. There's plenty of danger here

0:59:33.920 --> 0:59:37.520
<v Speaker 1>though in his last game, Crowder faced the other slock

0:59:37.560 --> 0:59:40.439
<v Speaker 1>cornerback who's in the conversation for the worst, Philip Gaines

0:59:40.480 --> 0:59:42.680
<v Speaker 1>and Crowder put up negative seven yards last week and

0:59:42.720 --> 0:59:45.240
<v Speaker 1>a juicy matchups. So I've still got a C grade

0:59:45.240 --> 0:59:47.480
<v Speaker 1>on Crowder because it feels like it ought all work out.

0:59:47.560 --> 0:59:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to the running game. Chris Thompson, I love him.

0:59:51.480 --> 0:59:54.120
<v Speaker 1>This week he draws the defense that currently owns bottom

0:59:54.160 --> 0:59:57.560
<v Speaker 1>five rankings in targets, receptions, and receiving yards and receiving

0:59:57.600 --> 1:00:01.960
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns to opposing tailbacks. So Thompson should be good through

1:00:02.000 --> 1:00:06.000
<v Speaker 1>the air. Really almost a dream dream opportunity for him,

1:00:06.160 --> 1:00:09.240
<v Speaker 1>especially with Rob Kelly almost certainly not suiting up here.

1:00:09.480 --> 1:00:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Last week, utility back Marlon Mack carved up the Niners.

1:00:13.480 --> 1:00:17.400
<v Speaker 1>This week, Chris Thompson utility back Somaj p Ryan should

1:00:17.400 --> 1:00:19.200
<v Speaker 1>get all the start here with Rob Kelly expected to

1:00:19.200 --> 1:00:21.760
<v Speaker 1>miss the game. Um, but we've got a long look

1:00:21.760 --> 1:00:23.840
<v Speaker 1>at at p Ryan because Kelly's been in on the lineup,

1:00:23.840 --> 1:00:26.959
<v Speaker 1>He's logged forty six carries. He's turned those into three

1:00:27.000 --> 1:00:29.960
<v Speaker 1>point one yards per carry. That's it. Niners run defense

1:00:30.000 --> 1:00:32.400
<v Speaker 1>is actually pretty good, dramatically improved from last year, giving

1:00:32.440 --> 1:00:34.040
<v Speaker 1>up just three point nine yards per Carys. So I've

1:00:34.040 --> 1:00:36.280
<v Speaker 1>got per Ran on the bench. When we come back,

1:00:36.800 --> 1:00:40.400
<v Speaker 1>the Los Angeles Rams taken on the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's

1:00:40.640 --> 1:00:44.480
<v Speaker 1>an elite running matchup for both of these teams. Will

1:00:44.480 --> 1:00:46.880
<v Speaker 1>tell you who we like more between Girly and Leonard

1:00:46.880 --> 1:00:50.520
<v Speaker 1>four Nette. When we come back your distinct of Fantasy

1:00:50.560 --> 1:01:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Football Weekly on the fan, Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly.

1:01:05.480 --> 1:01:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Scott Fish, Mike onto this time? My god. Nice see

1:01:09.560 --> 1:01:13.160
<v Speaker 1>your trainable there. It is inaugural show for Scott Fish.

1:01:13.480 --> 1:01:15.200
<v Speaker 1>You can send him some love on Twitter. Let him

1:01:15.240 --> 1:01:17.680
<v Speaker 1>know how he's doing at Scott Fish twenty four? Why

1:01:17.760 --> 1:01:20.800
<v Speaker 1>the twenty four Big Kendriff junior fan? Growing up? All right,

1:01:21.000 --> 1:01:24.200
<v Speaker 1>did you like the video game? I did? Yeah? S

1:01:24.240 --> 1:01:27.080
<v Speaker 1>any s video game? What about the TV show? You

1:01:27.120 --> 1:01:29.840
<v Speaker 1>had a TV show? TV show? No, but there was

1:01:29.520 --> 1:01:37.080
<v Speaker 1>one TV show the absolutely yeah, um yeah, the booze

1:01:37.120 --> 1:01:39.560
<v Speaker 1>hanging out and bring on the booze. Let's let's talk

1:01:39.560 --> 1:01:43.760
<v Speaker 1>to Rams and Jacksonville. It's two elite running backs against

1:01:43.800 --> 1:01:47.560
<v Speaker 1>two really bad run defenses. Is this as straightforward as

1:01:47.600 --> 1:01:50.280
<v Speaker 1>it looks? It really is? Todd Gurley's in a start

1:01:50.600 --> 1:01:52.880
<v Speaker 1>over the first four weeks of the season, the Jaguars.

1:01:52.960 --> 1:01:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Jaguars were stomped for a hundred forty nine rushing yards

1:01:56.160 --> 1:01:59.760
<v Speaker 1>per game. Uh, they're allowing the second most rushing yards

1:01:59.760 --> 1:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>per game. Levian Bell didn't crush him last week, but

1:02:02.640 --> 1:02:05.959
<v Speaker 1>he did get But they didn't take the ball. They kept.

1:02:06.080 --> 1:02:08.880
<v Speaker 1>They asked, They asked Ben Roethlis We're gonna throw fifty

1:02:08.920 --> 1:02:10.919
<v Speaker 1>five times in the game, exactly there was just poor

1:02:10.960 --> 1:02:14.000
<v Speaker 1>game plan. Fifteen carries for Levian Bell. I think that

1:02:14.200 --> 1:02:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Sean McVeigh is gonna learn from Tomlin's mistake and run

1:02:17.840 --> 1:02:20.080
<v Speaker 1>Todd Gurley down their throat. Last week was the only

1:02:20.160 --> 1:02:22.280
<v Speaker 1>week Gurley didn't get ninety five yards. I think he

1:02:22.280 --> 1:02:25.520
<v Speaker 1>gets back on track this week. I'm benching everyone else

1:02:25.520 --> 1:02:28.760
<v Speaker 1>in this game. I just m the entire passing game plays.

1:02:28.760 --> 1:02:33.440
<v Speaker 1>The top four Jags defense that leads the NFL in sacks, interceptions,

1:02:33.480 --> 1:02:37.240
<v Speaker 1>defensive touchdowns and even second informal recoveries. They're They're only

1:02:37.280 --> 1:02:41.040
<v Speaker 1>allowing a hundred passing yards per game. Watkins and Woods

1:02:41.120 --> 1:02:43.680
<v Speaker 1>gets a j. Boyer and Jalen Ramsey, two of the

1:02:43.680 --> 1:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>best cornerbacks in the league. And even if you think

1:02:46.200 --> 1:02:48.720
<v Speaker 1>Cooper Cup is a sneaky play, slot receivers are only

1:02:48.760 --> 1:02:52.240
<v Speaker 1>averaging twenty seven yards per game against them. So, uh,

1:02:52.280 --> 1:02:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Antonio Brown the only receiver to top six yards bench

1:02:55.560 --> 1:02:58.480
<v Speaker 1>every one of the everybody else for the Rams? Really,

1:02:58.920 --> 1:03:03.680
<v Speaker 1>all right, let's go to the Jag side. Obviously only

1:03:03.880 --> 1:03:06.680
<v Speaker 1>only player with a touchdown in every game this week

1:03:06.760 --> 1:03:10.200
<v Speaker 1>so far. Yep, and the Rams are kind of on

1:03:10.240 --> 1:03:14.200
<v Speaker 1>that same boat. They've allowed seven touchdowns over over the

1:03:14.240 --> 1:03:17.920
<v Speaker 1>course of the season and a hundred sixty six rushing

1:03:18.000 --> 1:03:21.760
<v Speaker 1>yards per hundred sixty six yards per game to running backs.

1:03:21.760 --> 1:03:24.280
<v Speaker 1>This is just such a great matchup for four NET

1:03:25.240 --> 1:03:28.000
<v Speaker 1>the Jet. The Rams did hold down the mess that

1:03:28.040 --> 1:03:31.360
<v Speaker 1>they called the Seattle backfield last week, but six different

1:03:31.400 --> 1:03:33.720
<v Speaker 1>running backs before that either got seventy five yards or

1:03:33.760 --> 1:03:36.400
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown for NET should have no trouble doing both.

1:03:36.880 --> 1:03:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Chris Ivory was my take a chance on me kind

1:03:39.240 --> 1:03:41.880
<v Speaker 1>of a dart throw see start. You know, just you know,

1:03:41.920 --> 1:03:44.840
<v Speaker 1>if you have some injuries or buys otherwise I'm benching

1:03:44.920 --> 1:03:48.320
<v Speaker 1>everyone else. Blake Boardles attempting twenty seven passes per game,

1:03:48.400 --> 1:03:51.200
<v Speaker 1>throwing for less than a hundred and fifty yards three times,

1:03:51.560 --> 1:03:53.800
<v Speaker 1>and it doesn't have a multi touchdown game. It's just

1:03:53.920 --> 1:03:56.720
<v Speaker 1>they have had a different wide receiver target leader each

1:03:56.760 --> 1:03:58.640
<v Speaker 1>of the last three games. It's a hard pass for

1:03:58.680 --> 1:04:02.160
<v Speaker 1>everybody else. Pittsburgh takes on Kansas City and uh, we've

1:04:02.160 --> 1:04:04.960
<v Speaker 1>got got an A grade and Antonio Brown it's always

1:04:04.960 --> 1:04:07.560
<v Speaker 1>an a start. Uh. I will note that he only

1:04:07.640 --> 1:04:10.200
<v Speaker 1>runs thirty percent of his plays from the right side

1:04:10.240 --> 1:04:12.880
<v Speaker 1>of the field, where star quarterback Marcus Peters play, so

1:04:12.920 --> 1:04:16.120
<v Speaker 1>that means the corresponding sixty six percent of the plays

1:04:16.120 --> 1:04:18.640
<v Speaker 1>are not on Marcus Peters, and the Chiefs have allowed

1:04:18.680 --> 1:04:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the most touchdowns to opposing receivers, So Antonio Brown gets

1:04:22.000 --> 1:04:26.640
<v Speaker 1>an A. That means conversely, Martavis Bryant is going to

1:04:26.680 --> 1:04:28.960
<v Speaker 1>be on the Marcus Peters side more often than not,

1:04:29.400 --> 1:04:31.160
<v Speaker 1>and so that means he's on the bench and he's

1:04:31.160 --> 1:04:35.760
<v Speaker 1>been brutal this year. Anyway, ju Juice Smith Schuster, the

1:04:35.840 --> 1:04:38.120
<v Speaker 1>other receiver from the slot, was might take a chance

1:04:38.160 --> 1:04:41.280
<v Speaker 1>on me wide out this week. Ben Roethlisberger through all

1:04:41.320 --> 1:04:43.000
<v Speaker 1>of that comes out as a B. Here. There's a

1:04:43.000 --> 1:04:46.720
<v Speaker 1>ton of intangibles in play. Will Ben Roethlisberger bounce back

1:04:46.760 --> 1:04:49.960
<v Speaker 1>from the self doubt that he vocalized after last week's

1:04:50.200 --> 1:04:53.360
<v Speaker 1>five interception game? He has a chance. Chiefs, of the

1:04:53.360 --> 1:04:55.840
<v Speaker 1>twenty fifth ranked past defense that've given up nine passing

1:04:55.840 --> 1:05:00.120
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns on the season since Week four, opposing quarterback have

1:05:00.240 --> 1:05:04.440
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed a cumulative touchdown to interception Rachel ratio of seven

1:05:04.480 --> 1:05:08.040
<v Speaker 1>to zero UM. But then again, it's been on the road,

1:05:08.160 --> 1:05:10.480
<v Speaker 1>where over the last three years he's averaging one touchdown

1:05:10.520 --> 1:05:12.960
<v Speaker 1>pass over the last half season of road games under

1:05:13.040 --> 1:05:17.000
<v Speaker 1>one touchdown pass per game, so plenty of possibilities here

1:05:17.000 --> 1:05:20.480
<v Speaker 1>for Ben Roethlisberger, a wide variety of potential outcomes and

1:05:20.680 --> 1:05:23.600
<v Speaker 1>Levy on Bell normally I just go he's an A

1:05:23.680 --> 1:05:27.520
<v Speaker 1>and forget about it. But this is a tricky matchup now.

1:05:27.520 --> 1:05:30.640
<v Speaker 1>He housed Kansas City last week in the two meetings,

1:05:30.720 --> 1:05:33.240
<v Speaker 1>last year in the two meetings. But this year, the

1:05:33.320 --> 1:05:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs haven't allowed it back to reach a d yards rushing.

1:05:35.920 --> 1:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>They've given up just one rushing touchdown since Week one.

1:05:38.840 --> 1:05:41.360
<v Speaker 1>They've been even better against pass catching backs, holding them

1:05:41.360 --> 1:05:43.440
<v Speaker 1>to three catches twenty two yards per game and no

1:05:43.520 --> 1:05:47.160
<v Speaker 1>receiving touchdowns. I've got the rare B grade on Levy

1:05:47.200 --> 1:05:49.800
<v Speaker 1>on Bell. Going over to the Kansas City side, Kareem

1:05:49.840 --> 1:05:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Hunt is an obvious A against a bad Pittsburgh run defense.

1:05:53.200 --> 1:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>In fact, he's my number one running back for the week.

1:05:55.680 --> 1:05:58.160
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt, let's go to the passing game. Alex Smith

1:05:58.200 --> 1:06:00.680
<v Speaker 1>is a C against the Steelers defense. The path of

1:06:00.760 --> 1:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>least resistance definitely on the ground, and the game plan

1:06:03.720 --> 1:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>looks dubious for Alex Smith here. Fortunately, his newfound downfield

1:06:07.680 --> 1:06:10.040
<v Speaker 1>passing prowess means that Alex Smith can get decent numbers

1:06:10.080 --> 1:06:14.520
<v Speaker 1>unlimited volume. Still, Pittsburgh's even just three passing touchdowns all year,

1:06:14.520 --> 1:06:17.360
<v Speaker 1>which is awesome, and an average of just one hundred

1:06:17.480 --> 1:06:20.240
<v Speaker 1>sixty four yards per game. So it's a bit's barely

1:06:20.280 --> 1:06:23.600
<v Speaker 1>a C grade on Alex Smith. Tyre killed another low

1:06:23.680 --> 1:06:26.400
<v Speaker 1>volume guy and a tough matchup with the Steelers secondary

1:06:26.440 --> 1:06:28.880
<v Speaker 1>that hasn't allowed a wide receiver to top fifty five

1:06:28.960 --> 1:06:33.000
<v Speaker 1>yards all year. But he is insanely fast and the

1:06:33.360 --> 1:06:36.760
<v Speaker 1>three Steelers cornerbacks are usually slow, so maybe he cracks

1:06:36.760 --> 1:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>the long one here. He did nothing in the two matchups.

1:06:40.360 --> 1:06:42.400
<v Speaker 1>Tyry Hill did nothing in the two matchups. Last year.

1:06:42.840 --> 1:06:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Pittsburgh played like the Browns and the Jaguars. It's not

1:06:46.480 --> 1:06:48.960
<v Speaker 1>it's not a lot of great vikings in a in

1:06:49.000 --> 1:06:52.120
<v Speaker 1>a game, you know where he's going to start. Yeah,

1:06:52.160 --> 1:06:54.440
<v Speaker 1>it's so there's some of that too, But still I

1:06:54.440 --> 1:06:56.800
<v Speaker 1>feel like this has got Kareem Hunt running up and

1:06:56.840 --> 1:06:59.880
<v Speaker 1>down the field. Um, and those teams have all been

1:07:00.040 --> 1:07:02.440
<v Speaker 1>running on the Steelers. If those teams can run on Steelers,

1:07:02.680 --> 1:07:05.240
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt, the NFL leader in rushing yards, will certainly

1:07:05.240 --> 1:07:07.480
<v Speaker 1>do that as well. Travis Kelsey is going to play

1:07:07.480 --> 1:07:10.240
<v Speaker 1>in this game, but it's not a particularly favorable matchup.

1:07:10.280 --> 1:07:12.240
<v Speaker 1>This is a Steelers defense that has allowed just one

1:07:12.400 --> 1:07:14.960
<v Speaker 1>tight end touchdown and no tight ends to top forty

1:07:15.040 --> 1:07:18.320
<v Speaker 1>five yards all year. He did have a moderate level

1:07:18.320 --> 1:07:20.760
<v Speaker 1>of success last year in the two matchups b grade

1:07:20.840 --> 1:07:25.400
<v Speaker 1>on Travis Kelsey. When we come back, we'll run through

1:07:25.440 --> 1:07:29.520
<v Speaker 1>our final set of matchups, Premature speculation and lightning round

1:07:29.560 --> 1:07:31.160

<v Speaker 1>bit that we do every show where we give you

<v Speaker 1>some guys that we think you should pick up now

1:08:39.720 --> 1:08:43.240
<v Speaker 1>that are potentially hot waiver wire pickups next week. Scott,

1:08:43.280 --> 1:08:46.080
<v Speaker 1>who you got? You know, I'm going with Tyler Croft.

1:08:46.600 --> 1:08:49.640
<v Speaker 1>He there owned by this week. So now that I

1:08:49.720 --> 1:08:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Fit's out for the season, people might not be picking

1:08:52.400 --> 1:08:54.559
<v Speaker 1>them up right now because of the bye, but then

1:08:54.640 --> 1:08:57.160
<v Speaker 1>next week they may be. Yeah, exactly, so get him

1:08:57.160 --> 1:09:00.680
<v Speaker 1>before getting before everybody else. He's averaging Since I f

1:09:00.680 --> 1:09:03.519
<v Speaker 1>Its been, he's been averaging four catches in about forty

1:09:03.520 --> 1:09:06.040
<v Speaker 1>five yards per game, and he scored twice. He's the

1:09:06.040 --> 1:09:09.599
<v Speaker 1>second most targeted wide receiver tight end on the Bengals

1:09:09.680 --> 1:09:12.639
<v Speaker 1>over the last three weeks, and five of his final

1:09:12.720 --> 1:09:17.000
<v Speaker 1>nine games are against bottom twelve past defenses, including two

1:09:17.080 --> 1:09:20.000
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs. In your playoffs, I like it, yeah,

1:09:20.479 --> 1:09:22.080
<v Speaker 1>for its top of the year, So you know you've

1:09:22.080 --> 1:09:24.479
<v Speaker 1>got clear sailing with him exactly, all right, Brian, who's

1:09:24.479 --> 1:09:27.960
<v Speaker 1>your premature speculation? Guy. I think those second round rookie

1:09:28.000 --> 1:09:31.479
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers A Jones of the Buffalo Bills ZA has

1:09:31.479 --> 1:09:34.880
<v Speaker 1>done virtually nothing so far this year, but someone needs

1:09:34.880 --> 1:09:36.960
<v Speaker 1>to step up at wide receiver for Buffalo with Jordan

1:09:37.040 --> 1:09:39.600
<v Speaker 1>Matthews still on the shelf. Um that someone has to

1:09:39.640 --> 1:09:42.679
<v Speaker 1>be Jones, who has more targets and fellow Buffalo wide

1:09:42.680 --> 1:09:47.000
<v Speaker 1>receivers Brandon Tate, Andre Holmes, and Kayalen Clay combined. Jones

1:09:47.120 --> 1:09:49.240
<v Speaker 1>was targeted three times since hade the red zone in

1:09:49.240 --> 1:09:52.000
<v Speaker 1>his last game, so that was some encouraging usage. He's

1:09:52.000 --> 1:09:53.640
<v Speaker 1>on hist by this week, so no one's gonna be

1:09:53.680 --> 1:09:56.639
<v Speaker 1>adding him now, but I think you should because looking ahead,

1:09:56.640 --> 1:09:58.479
<v Speaker 1>he's got a pretty nice schedule the next four weeks

1:09:58.479 --> 1:10:01.439
<v Speaker 1>for wide receivers Tampa Bay, Oakland at New York Jets,

1:10:01.439 --> 1:10:04.479
<v Speaker 1>and New Orleans. So those are kind of some shootout

1:10:04.479 --> 1:10:07.040
<v Speaker 1>type scenarios, you could say, not really for Buffalo is

1:10:07.080 --> 1:10:10.400
<v Speaker 1>never gonna shoot up. It's a Jones is gonna see volume. Uh,

1:10:10.520 --> 1:10:12.840
<v Speaker 1>Jordan Matthews is getting dropped everywhere, and he's gonna be

1:10:12.880 --> 1:10:15.040
<v Speaker 1>out for another two weeks. I wonder at some point,

1:10:15.080 --> 1:10:17.000
<v Speaker 1>if we're not gonna be talking about him, is a guy.

1:10:17.080 --> 1:10:19.879
<v Speaker 1>You know, if A Jones doesn't emerge when Jordan Matthews

1:10:19.880 --> 1:10:21.720
<v Speaker 1>comes back, then he's got to be the guy. I'm

1:10:21.760 --> 1:10:25.320
<v Speaker 1>calling on that one. All right, that's two weeks from now. Uh,

1:10:25.400 --> 1:10:27.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna give you two. I'm gonna try to do quickly.

1:10:27.560 --> 1:10:31.040
<v Speaker 1>One is Ricardo Lewis. He's the latest of the Browns

1:10:31.040 --> 1:10:35.040
<v Speaker 1>receivers to you know, to play whackable. But he's Kevin

1:10:35.080 --> 1:10:37.559
<v Speaker 1>Hogan's guy. This is the difference here. In the last

1:10:37.560 --> 1:10:40.000
<v Speaker 1>two games, he's gotten eight and nine targets, which has

1:10:40.040 --> 1:10:42.439
<v Speaker 1>produced solid yard and yard yardage number sixty four and

1:10:42.439 --> 1:10:45.400
<v Speaker 1>seventy one yards. And Kevin Hogan's your starter. And frankly,

1:10:45.439 --> 1:10:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I think he's better than Deshaun Kaiser, so at at

1:10:48.040 --> 1:10:50.479
<v Speaker 1>least two my eyes, So I think Kevin Hogan's gonna

1:10:50.520 --> 1:10:53.400
<v Speaker 1>hold that job at least for a while. I'll take

1:10:53.439 --> 1:10:55.680
<v Speaker 1>his number one receiver. Kenny Brits gonna miss another game

1:10:55.680 --> 1:10:58.439
<v Speaker 1>with the knee injury, not that he's even particularly relevant here.

1:10:58.600 --> 1:11:01.080
<v Speaker 1>And the Browns are playing from behind the virtually every game.

1:11:01.120 --> 1:11:06.040
<v Speaker 1>They have the sixth highest pass ratio of then secondarily

1:11:09.360 --> 1:11:12.679
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy Garoppolo. Now I know my track record I'm figuring

1:11:12.680 --> 1:11:16.000
<v Speaker 1>out when the Brady Garoppolo handoff is coming. Is a

1:11:16.160 --> 1:11:21.200
<v Speaker 1>tad spotty, but here's your here's your angle. Tom Brady

1:11:21.200 --> 1:11:26.280
<v Speaker 1>has absorbed more sacks this year than all of last year. Already,

1:11:26.360 --> 1:11:29.760
<v Speaker 1>he's on pace to shatter his personal record for the

1:11:29.800 --> 1:11:32.400
<v Speaker 1>most sacks in any season with fifty one. He's also

1:11:32.479 --> 1:11:34.639
<v Speaker 1>on pace to shatter as Pelvis if this keeps up.

1:11:35.479 --> 1:11:38.840
<v Speaker 1>For some perspective, on fifty one sacks, that's nine more

1:11:39.680 --> 1:11:43.280
<v Speaker 1>than the most sacked quarterback in the league last year,

1:11:43.400 --> 1:11:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Tyrod Taylor. So he's on pace to have nine more

1:11:45.960 --> 1:11:48.200
<v Speaker 1>sacks than the most sack quarterback for last year. And

1:11:48.240 --> 1:11:50.679
<v Speaker 1>as we've discussed before, when you get to Brady's age,

1:11:50.960 --> 1:11:56.280
<v Speaker 1>the end comes with injury. Here's your angle. Uh. Fortunately,

1:11:56.320 --> 1:11:58.080
<v Speaker 1>this week the Patriots played the team getting a few

1:11:58.120 --> 1:12:00.439
<v Speaker 1>of sacks the Jets, so maybe have to do it

1:12:00.479 --> 1:12:04.400
<v Speaker 1>this week. But Garoppolo came back. Yes, If Brady went

1:12:04.439 --> 1:12:08.600
<v Speaker 1>out and Garoppolo were playing, Garoppolo would likely be a

1:12:08.720 --> 1:12:12.679
<v Speaker 1>top ten fantasy quarterback most weeks. Let's get our final

1:12:12.720 --> 1:12:17.040
<v Speaker 1>two matchups. In next up, Detroit takes on New Orleans

1:12:17.240 --> 1:12:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Brian We got a one legged quarterback for Detroit. Yeah,

1:12:22.040 --> 1:12:25.479
<v Speaker 1>normally you'd give almost any opposing quarterback in New Orleans

1:12:25.520 --> 1:12:27.080
<v Speaker 1>in a but I'm gonna give Stafford to be here

1:12:27.080 --> 1:12:28.920
<v Speaker 1>because he's so banged up with that leg injury, and

1:12:28.920 --> 1:12:31.519
<v Speaker 1>he's taken a lot of hits, and New Orleans pass

1:12:31.600 --> 1:12:33.960
<v Speaker 1>rush is fairly legit. So I'm a little worried about

1:12:33.960 --> 1:12:36.679
<v Speaker 1>Stafford finishing this game. But he's certainly worth the start

1:12:36.720 --> 1:12:39.960
<v Speaker 1>in this matchup. A guy that's definitely worth the start.

1:12:40.000 --> 1:12:44.400
<v Speaker 1>It's Golden eight, Golden, Golden eight, Golden giving him an

1:12:44.439 --> 1:12:47.320
<v Speaker 1>a on the fast of them this week. Yeah. In

1:12:47.360 --> 1:12:50.360
<v Speaker 1>his career, he's played thirty nine games indoors and sixty

1:12:50.439 --> 1:12:54.840
<v Speaker 1>three outdoors. Tata scored seventeen touchdowns in his thirty nine

1:12:54.880 --> 1:12:57.639
<v Speaker 1>indoor games, nearly half a touchdown bre game. He's only

1:12:57.680 --> 1:13:01.200
<v Speaker 1>scored twelve in the sixty three outdoor games. He's also

1:13:01.240 --> 1:13:04.559
<v Speaker 1>compiled more yards and UH catches in the thirty nine

1:13:04.560 --> 1:13:07.400
<v Speaker 1>indoor games than compared to the total from the sixty

1:13:07.439 --> 1:13:09.680
<v Speaker 1>three outdoor games. So he's a great play, especially with

1:13:09.760 --> 1:13:12.479
<v Speaker 1>Kenny Bacaro expected to cover him from the slot. Thecaro

1:13:12.560 --> 1:13:14.640
<v Speaker 1>is a safety. He's on a cornerback, so takes a

1:13:14.680 --> 1:13:17.720
<v Speaker 1>primo primo play. Uh. The other wide receivers are not though.

1:13:17.760 --> 1:13:19.599
<v Speaker 1>Kenny Golladay on the bench, not even sure if he's

1:13:19.640 --> 1:13:21.519
<v Speaker 1>gonna play yet he hasn't played since Week three. He

1:13:21.560 --> 1:13:24.400
<v Speaker 1>can't be trusted. I'm on the fence with Marvin Jones.

1:13:24.720 --> 1:13:27.360
<v Speaker 1>H Ken Crawley and Marshaw Lattimore are very good cornerbacks

1:13:27.360 --> 1:13:30.439
<v Speaker 1>for the Saints. Not since Week one, no opposing wide

1:13:30.439 --> 1:13:32.719
<v Speaker 1>receiver has topped eighty yards and only one has scored

1:13:32.720 --> 1:13:34.519
<v Speaker 1>against the Saints. So I got Marvin Jones on the

1:13:34.520 --> 1:13:37.439
<v Speaker 1>bench here, as I do with Eric Ebron. UH could

1:13:37.439 --> 1:13:40.720
<v Speaker 1>never block last week. He he can't catch any So

1:13:43.240 --> 1:13:44.719
<v Speaker 1>over the course of the show, we've given you five

1:13:44.760 --> 1:13:46.920
<v Speaker 1>tight ends that I would rather play over Eric Ebron,

1:13:46.960 --> 1:13:49.160
<v Speaker 1>who are available in almost every league. This could be

1:13:49.160 --> 1:13:51.000
<v Speaker 1>the last time we mentioned his name on the show

1:13:51.640 --> 1:13:54.400
<v Speaker 1>with me. Uh. Then onto the running backs for Detroit.

1:13:54.439 --> 1:13:56.599
<v Speaker 1>I'll give him you. Abdula b has at least fifteen

1:13:56.680 --> 1:13:59.160
<v Speaker 1>carries and three or five games this year. He was

1:13:59.280 --> 1:14:01.840
<v Speaker 1>vultured by his center last week, so fire up that

1:14:01.960 --> 1:14:05.000
<v Speaker 1>sound effect if you want. Tony. But New Orleans is

1:14:05.080 --> 1:14:08.040
<v Speaker 1>ranked thirtieth against the run by Football Outsiders and has

1:14:08.080 --> 1:14:11.160
<v Speaker 1>allowed the fourth most catches and second most perceiving yards

1:14:11.160 --> 1:14:13.400
<v Speaker 1>to running backs, so Abdu will get work on the

1:14:13.439 --> 1:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>ground and in the air. So he's still a B

1:14:15.280 --> 1:14:18.719
<v Speaker 1>level play and those passing numbers should make THEO Ritica

1:14:18.800 --> 1:14:20.679
<v Speaker 1>a solid start in this one. But he has double

1:14:20.720 --> 1:14:23.960
<v Speaker 1>digit double digit touches and just one of five games played,

1:14:24.560 --> 1:14:26.040
<v Speaker 1>so for me, he's still on the bench even in

1:14:26.120 --> 1:14:28.679
<v Speaker 1>this matchup. So he's on the bench over the Saints.

1:14:28.720 --> 1:14:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Drew Brees is an ah you always love breeze at home.

1:14:31.360 --> 1:14:33.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna get into that one too much. Michael

1:14:33.479 --> 1:14:35.799
<v Speaker 1>Thomas also gonna give him an a even though Darius

1:14:35.840 --> 1:14:39.200
<v Speaker 1>Slay should be Uh's the tricky part of this, right,

1:14:39.200 --> 1:14:42.479
<v Speaker 1>tricky part. But Slay allowed Calvin Benjamin and Devin Funches

1:14:42.520 --> 1:14:46.000
<v Speaker 1>to score last week. UH number one receivers before that game,

1:14:46.040 --> 1:14:48.639
<v Speaker 1>Stefon Diggs had five catches for ninety eight yards. Julio

1:14:48.720 --> 1:14:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Jones had seven for nine one against Detroit. So that's

1:14:51.400 --> 1:14:53.360
<v Speaker 1>a fair barometer for Thomas here with A with a

1:14:53.400 --> 1:14:56.720
<v Speaker 1>certainly high ceiling. Willie Sneed and Ted again, let's talk

1:14:56.720 --> 1:15:00.000
<v Speaker 1>about these guys. Well, yeah, I think so Willie Sneeds

1:15:00.040 --> 1:15:03.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna make his season debut um. We don't know what

1:15:03.240 --> 1:15:05.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of usage he's gonna get though, and Ted Ginn

1:15:06.200 --> 1:15:09.080
<v Speaker 1>hasn't caught more than three passes since Week one. I'm

1:15:09.080 --> 1:15:10.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna give both the Sea just because they're at home

1:15:11.120 --> 1:15:13.559
<v Speaker 1>in a fairly favorable matchup. Detroit has allowed a hundred

1:15:13.600 --> 1:15:15.880
<v Speaker 1>and sixty five yards to wide receiver units and four

1:15:15.960 --> 1:15:18.479
<v Speaker 1>total touchdowns over the last three weeks, so I'll give

1:15:18.479 --> 1:15:20.120
<v Speaker 1>both the Sea, but I'm not liking it. I like

1:15:20.200 --> 1:15:22.679
<v Speaker 1>Kobe Fleaner a whole lot more than both of those guys.

1:15:22.760 --> 1:15:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Use might take a chance let meet receiver. And then, finally,

1:15:25.240 --> 1:15:27.559
<v Speaker 1>the running backs for the Saints, Mark Ingram and Album Kamara.

1:15:27.560 --> 1:15:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna give them both of b Ingram probably the

1:15:30.040 --> 1:15:32.800
<v Speaker 1>better play and standard leads Kamara and PPR that both

1:15:32.800 --> 1:15:34.679
<v Speaker 1>should see good usage on the ground. In the air,

1:15:35.080 --> 1:15:37.559
<v Speaker 1>h Ingram will likely flirt with twenty carries while Kamara

1:15:37.600 --> 1:15:40.040
<v Speaker 1>will get around ten. Kamara should be more involved in

1:15:40.040 --> 1:15:43.439
<v Speaker 1>the passing game, where this matchup favors uh Past catching

1:15:43.439 --> 1:15:46.479
<v Speaker 1>backs more. The lines have allowed the fourth most catches

1:15:46.520 --> 1:15:48.519
<v Speaker 1>and fifth most receiving arts and running backs this year,

1:15:48.600 --> 1:15:51.040
<v Speaker 1>so he's slightly better play this week. I think come on.

1:15:51.040 --> 1:15:54.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm fascinated to see how they use Alvin Cramea now

1:15:54.600 --> 1:15:57.479
<v Speaker 1>that coming off that massive London game, then you go

1:15:57.520 --> 1:16:00.639
<v Speaker 1>into the by then you trade Adrian Peter Sin So

1:16:00.680 --> 1:16:03.040
<v Speaker 1>what happens now with Camara? They're gonna throw him another

1:16:03.120 --> 1:16:06.080
<v Speaker 1>eleven times in one game. I can't wait to see

1:16:06.080 --> 1:16:08.600
<v Speaker 1>how they use them here and that'll be absolutely fascinating.

1:16:08.640 --> 1:16:12.639
<v Speaker 1>There's there's a scenario out there where Camara is so

1:16:12.760 --> 1:16:16.799
<v Speaker 1>good that he simply leaves Ingram and his dust. Although

1:16:16.840 --> 1:16:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Sean Paynton has forever used multiple backs, but maybe Ingram

1:16:20.320 --> 1:16:22.200
<v Speaker 1>is just so good that he becomes closer to like

1:16:22.240 --> 1:16:25.160
<v Speaker 1>an RB one for fantasy. It is possible. Al right, Scott,

1:16:25.160 --> 1:16:26.760
<v Speaker 1>final matchup of the week is the Monday Night or

1:16:26.800 --> 1:16:30.639
<v Speaker 1>Indianapolis Colts at the Tennessee Titans. You already talked about

1:16:30.680 --> 1:16:32.400
<v Speaker 1>some of the some of the guys that you liked

1:16:32.400 --> 1:16:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and take a chance of me like Jacoby Brissette. Yep, yep,

1:16:35.160 --> 1:16:37.360
<v Speaker 1>I liked Jacoby Proctte. I did give him a B

1:16:37.479 --> 1:16:42.280
<v Speaker 1>grade in this one. Uh t Y Hilton his his

1:16:42.400 --> 1:16:46.680
<v Speaker 1>tunnel vision wide receiver to hy Hilton. His accounted for

1:16:46.800 --> 1:16:50.280
<v Speaker 1>forty nine percent of Brissette's passing yards over the last

1:16:50.280 --> 1:16:53.240
<v Speaker 1>three weeks, including two games of over a hundred and

1:16:53.240 --> 1:16:56.280
<v Speaker 1>fifty yards. And this week he gets the Titans defense

1:16:56.360 --> 1:16:59.120
<v Speaker 1>that is worse than those two. The Titans have allowed

1:16:59.160 --> 1:17:02.599
<v Speaker 1>a league worst nine touchdowns to wide receivers this season.

1:17:03.000 --> 1:17:05.160
<v Speaker 1>And and Hilton is a big play guy. He he

1:17:05.240 --> 1:17:08.080
<v Speaker 1>leads the He's tied for the league lead in receptions

1:17:08.120 --> 1:17:11.240
<v Speaker 1>over twenty yards with eight, tied with our boys, Stephon Diggs.

1:17:12.040 --> 1:17:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Um Hilton against the Titans last year, real quick five

1:17:15.360 --> 1:17:18.240
<v Speaker 1>seven and a touchdown, seven for one, three in a touchdown.

1:17:18.280 --> 1:17:21.559
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, good track, Yeah, a play for sure, a play, yep.

1:17:21.960 --> 1:17:24.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving Frank Gore a ce play. He's had at

1:17:24.560 --> 1:17:28.840
<v Speaker 1>least fifteen touches in three consecutive games, and every running

1:17:28.840 --> 1:17:31.519
<v Speaker 1>back that's had fifteen touches against the Titans has had

1:17:31.560 --> 1:17:35.679
<v Speaker 1>either seventy five yards or a touchdown, So it seems

1:17:35.720 --> 1:17:38.160
<v Speaker 1>pretty obvious there. I do have a little concern that,

1:17:38.280 --> 1:17:41.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, Mac might carve out a little more. I

1:17:41.479 --> 1:17:43.920
<v Speaker 1>think he will. Yeah, And and if Frank Gore did

1:17:43.960 --> 1:17:46.880
<v Speaker 1>those touches dip a little, maybe he should be uh

1:17:47.200 --> 1:17:49.640
<v Speaker 1>should be. I have missegreed he might be a B

1:17:49.760 --> 1:17:52.320
<v Speaker 1>grade if it wasn't from Marlon Mack. I'm bentioning everyone

1:17:52.360 --> 1:17:54.400
<v Speaker 1>else though. I like Marlon Mack, but I can't trust

1:17:54.439 --> 1:17:57.200
<v Speaker 1>him yet. Moncrief and Aikin they they haven't even topped

1:17:57.200 --> 1:18:01.160
<v Speaker 1>three catches in the game over the Titans. I did

1:18:01.200 --> 1:18:03.960
<v Speaker 1>all of these assuming Mariota goes Monday night, so so

1:18:04.080 --> 1:18:07.040
<v Speaker 1>keep that in mind. Delaney Walker, I gave an A grade.

1:18:07.080 --> 1:18:10.320
<v Speaker 1>He's averaging nearly seven targets and fifty five yards per

1:18:10.360 --> 1:18:12.880
<v Speaker 1>game with Mariota in and the Colts are allowing seventy

1:18:12.960 --> 1:18:14.679
<v Speaker 1>yards and a score to tight ends over the last

1:18:14.680 --> 1:18:19.360
<v Speaker 1>three weeks. Mariota a B grade. The Colts have allowed

1:18:19.400 --> 1:18:21.840
<v Speaker 1>the second most passing yards this season, over three hundred

1:18:21.880 --> 1:18:25.040
<v Speaker 1>per game, and have allowed eight touchdowns over the last

1:18:25.080 --> 1:18:28.559
<v Speaker 1>three weeks. Uh, it's a good matchup for Mariota. Richard

1:18:28.600 --> 1:18:31.679
<v Speaker 1>Matthews has led the Titans and targets every week since

1:18:31.720 --> 1:18:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Week two and averaged eight per game with Mariota. He

1:18:35.760 --> 1:18:38.639
<v Speaker 1>plays the Colts defense that has surrendered at least fifty

1:18:38.720 --> 1:18:42.559
<v Speaker 1>yards to ten different wide receivers. He's Mariota's top target.

1:18:42.880 --> 1:18:45.880
<v Speaker 1>I like him as a B grade as well. Uh,

1:18:46.040 --> 1:18:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Murray I have as a C grade de Marco Murray. Uh,

1:18:49.200 --> 1:18:51.680
<v Speaker 1>the Colts are somehow kind of stingy on defense. No

1:18:51.800 --> 1:18:55.720
<v Speaker 1>running back has top fifty five yards rushing on them. Uh,

1:18:55.840 --> 1:18:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Duke Johnson and Todd Gurley at nice days, but that

1:18:57.960 --> 1:19:00.120
<v Speaker 1>was a lot through the air, and Merley Murdy. He

1:19:00.200 --> 1:19:02.960
<v Speaker 1>is only averaging two catches per game. So outside of

1:19:02.960 --> 1:19:05.160
<v Speaker 1>that really nice day against Philadelphia where he had a

1:19:05.240 --> 1:19:08.200
<v Speaker 1>huge run, Murray has been mediocre at best. He's he's

1:19:08.240 --> 1:19:10.280
<v Speaker 1>really only a c play because I think he might

1:19:10.280 --> 1:19:13.639
<v Speaker 1>get fifteen or so touches. Yeah, if Castle starts, I'm

1:19:13.680 --> 1:19:17.160
<v Speaker 1>mentioning the entire passing game, though I don't trust Castle

1:19:17.200 --> 1:19:20.400
<v Speaker 1>to get anything done through the air. Nothing. I'm gonna

1:19:20.439 --> 1:19:23.720
<v Speaker 1>go back to Marlon Mack for the second the He

1:19:23.840 --> 1:19:25.840
<v Speaker 1>brought some sizzle to the table that we have not

1:19:25.880 --> 1:19:28.439
<v Speaker 1>seen from a running back from the Colts in years,

1:19:28.840 --> 1:19:32.200
<v Speaker 1>and Chuck Bogano said they're going to expand his role Tennessee.

1:19:32.240 --> 1:19:35.439
<v Speaker 1>Giving a fifty yards through the air on a per

1:19:35.479 --> 1:19:37.519
<v Speaker 1>game basis to running backs, I think most of that

1:19:37.520 --> 1:19:40.360
<v Speaker 1>could go to Marlon Mack. I I think he's in

1:19:40.400 --> 1:19:43.240
<v Speaker 1>a bye week. I think he's startable. It's possible we'll

1:19:43.280 --> 1:19:44.800
<v Speaker 1>find out well, you will find it. He's gonna be

1:19:44.800 --> 1:19:46.720
<v Speaker 1>fun to watch that one. It's lighting around. You know

1:19:46.760 --> 1:19:48.320
<v Speaker 1>what that means. Plenty of your phone calls between now

1:19:48.360 --> 1:19:50.559
<v Speaker 1>on the top of the hour, and you know the rules.

1:19:51.160 --> 1:19:54.320
<v Speaker 1>One question between two players, many of you have been

1:19:54.360 --> 1:19:57.439
<v Speaker 1>holding for upwards of really two hours. Thank you for

1:19:57.439 --> 1:20:00.760
<v Speaker 1>your patients. Scott, your first Well, I was gonna ask

1:20:00.800 --> 1:20:02.360
<v Speaker 1>for take a chance on me tight end, but I

1:20:02.400 --> 1:20:06.080
<v Speaker 1>guess they don't have to do that. No, you don't. Um,

1:20:06.120 --> 1:20:10.160
<v Speaker 1>I have a trade question. Um, I have Ryan Winston

1:20:10.400 --> 1:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>and um Stanford on my team, and I have a

1:20:12.720 --> 1:20:19.760
<v Speaker 1>trade uh upper for Winston and Ellington for tomorrow. Yeah,

1:20:19.880 --> 1:20:23.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm yeah, I'm got the depth of quarterback. Yeah

1:20:23.439 --> 1:20:25.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I don't mind getting rid of Winston at

1:20:25.640 --> 1:20:27.920
<v Speaker 1>all for for that. You have two good quarterbacks other

1:20:27.920 --> 1:20:30.160
<v Speaker 1>than that, so yeah, I would take Tomorrow over Ellington

1:20:30.240 --> 1:20:34.320
<v Speaker 1>going forward. Thank you, Scott. Aaron You're next. I gotta

1:20:36.400 --> 1:20:40.000
<v Speaker 1>this week. Aaron Jones or Chris Thompson. Are you in

1:20:40.040 --> 1:20:43.920
<v Speaker 1>a PPR league or a standard scoring leg standard? That's

1:20:43.960 --> 1:20:49.200
<v Speaker 1>the answer that. Yeah, Aaron Jones, Brandon you're next. H right,

1:20:49.680 --> 1:20:54.080
<v Speaker 1>good show? Thank you? Um so do I standard league?

1:20:53.640 --> 1:20:59.599
<v Speaker 1>A Montgomery or Alex Con Alex Collin, especially in standard scoring,

1:20:59.600 --> 1:21:01.600
<v Speaker 1>who I have is gonna get the majority of the

1:21:01.680 --> 1:21:05.679
<v Speaker 1>carry's in a very favorable matchup. Michael, you're next. I'm

1:21:05.760 --> 1:21:11.760
<v Speaker 1>dropping Cutler. I need McCowen or oh, easily McCom for

1:21:11.800 --> 1:21:14.639
<v Speaker 1>me easily. I that that matchup is great this week

1:21:14.680 --> 1:21:21.559
<v Speaker 1>against the Patriots. Steve your next, Steve Yeah, Jordy Nelson

1:21:21.800 --> 1:21:25.920
<v Speaker 1>or Mike Evans and Elijah McGuire or Andre Ellington. See

1:21:25.920 --> 1:21:30.000
<v Speaker 1>the bit is it's one question between two players. Matt

1:21:30.160 --> 1:21:36.160
<v Speaker 1>you are next? Yeah? Um? Love Joe looking at a

1:21:38.800 --> 1:21:41.599
<v Speaker 1>camp Aaron Jones or Duke Johns Aaron Jones or Duke

1:21:41.680 --> 1:21:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Johnson half point PPR. I think he said it's a

1:21:46.040 --> 1:21:51.479
<v Speaker 1>tough matchup for Jones. It's a king it is if

1:21:51.520 --> 1:21:54.840
<v Speaker 1>Montgomery plays, I would lean Duke Johnson with Montgomery somehow

1:21:54.840 --> 1:21:58.160
<v Speaker 1>say it's go down Jones. All right. I think Matt

1:21:58.280 --> 1:22:01.559
<v Speaker 1>is next, Matt or that was Matt hold On Now

1:22:01.640 --> 1:22:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Mark Hello, Mark PPR or Elijah McGuire or Pierre Gar

1:22:07.160 --> 1:22:10.679
<v Speaker 1>song Pierre Gar songs, particularly in PPR where he's been

1:22:10.960 --> 1:22:15.280
<v Speaker 1>really good even without the touchdowns. Jim You're next? Yeah, Um,

1:22:15.360 --> 1:22:19.679
<v Speaker 1>standards scoring a Smith Schuster or Mike Evans. Wow, it's

1:22:19.720 --> 1:22:23.519
<v Speaker 1>come to this, and jud smith Schuster is my guy

1:22:23.560 --> 1:22:25.760
<v Speaker 1>from taking a chance on me. But I can't. I

1:22:25.840 --> 1:22:31.519
<v Speaker 1>can't start him over. Mike Evans, No, I can't do it. Rick,

1:22:31.600 --> 1:22:36.920
<v Speaker 1>You're next, Hey, guys, four point PPR flex spot, Ellington

1:22:37.080 --> 1:22:40.240
<v Speaker 1>or Golden Tape. All right, probably Golden Tate. I love

1:22:40.280 --> 1:22:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Golden Tape. It's inside my top ten this week at

1:22:43.280 --> 1:22:46.760
<v Speaker 1>the receiver position. Trent, You're next. They love the Joan

1:22:46.880 --> 1:22:54.479
<v Speaker 1>you Jordan Read or a J. Derby boy Charter Reads

1:22:54.520 --> 1:22:57.280
<v Speaker 1>brought nothing to the table. He's got three ailments right now,

1:22:57.320 --> 1:22:59.559
<v Speaker 1>even coming out of the bye week. Go with your

1:22:59.560 --> 1:23:02.360
<v Speaker 1>go with your a J. Derby, So this is the

1:23:02.360 --> 1:23:05.680
<v Speaker 1>week Reed goes off. Probably you know, is so so

1:23:05.720 --> 1:23:09.480
<v Speaker 1>good for Derby. Let's do it, do it, go Tory Derby?

1:23:09.520 --> 1:23:15.479
<v Speaker 1>All right, everyone, I like it. Jason, you're next, alright.

1:23:15.479 --> 1:23:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Standards scoring Alex Collins or Camara because it's standard scoring.

1:23:21.400 --> 1:23:23.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm taking Collins, who I think he's got a great

1:23:23.200 --> 1:23:26.439
<v Speaker 1>chance of a touchdown here. Collins has eight runs over

1:23:26.800 --> 1:23:29.960
<v Speaker 1>ten yards and three runs over twenty yards. Really explosive,

1:23:30.280 --> 1:23:32.680
<v Speaker 1>and I'm super high Camara. Don't get me wrong, but

1:23:32.720 --> 1:23:34.840
<v Speaker 1>I think it's his best value comes as a full

1:23:34.840 --> 1:23:39.720
<v Speaker 1>featured back, including the passing game. Gene, you're next? Oh yeah,

1:23:40.439 --> 1:23:47.920
<v Speaker 1>that's going Mary Cooper for for sorry Cooper? Who Fuller?

1:23:48.439 --> 1:23:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Fuller Cooper or Fuller? Wow? Fuller is a tough, tough matchup.

1:23:53.760 --> 1:23:56.840
<v Speaker 1>I think Hooper's his own walking tough matchup. His own

1:23:56.880 --> 1:23:59.599
<v Speaker 1>hands are a tough matchup. Cooper has been terrible. He's

1:23:59.600 --> 1:24:02.200
<v Speaker 1>got are but I can't. I just can't quit him yet.

1:24:02.200 --> 1:24:05.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go with Cooper, just barely. Chris, you're on

1:24:05.200 --> 1:24:10.759
<v Speaker 1>the fan alright? Uh point per Reception League and Chris

1:24:10.760 --> 1:24:15.040
<v Speaker 1>Hogan or Davante Adams. Wow, that's that's a tough one.

1:24:15.439 --> 1:24:22.320
<v Speaker 1>I feel so um. I'm going Hogan went to if

1:24:22.360 --> 1:24:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Adams right, Jim you're next, Jim PPR, Yes, I'm her PPR.

1:24:32.760 --> 1:24:39.960
<v Speaker 1>Gore or Ellington, sure by a mile, Zach You're up? Yeah?

1:24:40.040 --> 1:24:44.920
<v Speaker 1>Non PPR, t Y Hilton or Brandon Cooks. I'm going Hilton.

1:24:46.160 --> 1:24:48.240
<v Speaker 1>I think he's gonna put up a huge day both

1:24:48.280 --> 1:24:51.759
<v Speaker 1>in yards and touchdown. Luke, you're on the fan? Hey

1:24:52.240 --> 1:24:57.519
<v Speaker 1>PPR again JR? Or Mark's lead? Thank you? Man? Go

1:24:57.600 --> 1:25:01.400
<v Speaker 1>to the waiver wire. Dude, I don't know. Again, I

1:25:01.479 --> 1:25:04.840
<v Speaker 1>gave Marks got also got the game plan working against him,

1:25:04.840 --> 1:25:08.240
<v Speaker 1>which should be all running right. At least Gain has

1:25:08.320 --> 1:25:10.280
<v Speaker 1>got the upside of the game plan that's going to

1:25:10.360 --> 1:25:13.519
<v Speaker 1>go mostly through Breeze's arm. Again's got upside, Let's put

1:25:13.520 --> 1:25:17.080
<v Speaker 1>it that way. But seriously, ju Juice Smith Schuster is

1:25:17.080 --> 1:25:18.840
<v Speaker 1>a way better start than either one of those, and

1:25:18.880 --> 1:25:21.639
<v Speaker 1>I assure you he's available right now. Littany of tight

1:25:21.720 --> 1:25:23.519
<v Speaker 1>ends that we mentioned on the show, I playing them

1:25:23.520 --> 1:25:26.080
<v Speaker 1>over either of those guests. A right, Jim, you're our

<v Speaker 1>final caller today. My guys standards scoring uh, flex position,

1:25:31.920 --> 1:25:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Jarvis Lantry or Jameron Breave. I'm going with Landry. I

1:25:36.360 --> 1:25:38.600
<v Speaker 1>do like break, but he has scored three weeks in

1:25:38.640 --> 1:25:40.680
<v Speaker 1>a row. The odds of a fourth might not be

1:25:41.439 --> 1:25:44.439
<v Speaker 1>for a bad game. Yeah, pante Parker out. I'm going Landry. Okay,

1:25:44.439 --> 1:25:47.519
<v Speaker 1>sounds good. Enjoy your one yard per reception on Landry.
