All right, was jump into the Niners 35 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: at the Eagles. Eagles favorite by two and a half 36 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 2: total is forty six. 37 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 3: Who do I g in a captain spot? 38 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: So I like DeVante Smith here. You know the Eagles 39 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: might not be as efficient running the ball here against 40 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: an elite forty nine ers run defense, they ranked second 41 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: in DVO against the run. So I think this is 42 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,839 Speaker 1: a game where the Eagles could be forced into more 43 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: pass heavy game script and especially more you know, third 44 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: downs that because they won't be as effective running the ball. 45 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: So DeVonta Smith leads a team and target rate on 46 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: third downs. Last week he actually saw fifty seven percent 47 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 1: of the targets on third and fourth downs, So you know, 48 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna have a big game here. Plus 49 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, you know they can be pretty 50 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: vulnerable to deep balls. They have the fifth highest yards 51 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: per tent allowed on throws twenty plus yards downfield. You know, 52 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: AJ Brown's dealing with the hip injury. Goddar has a 53 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: much tougher matchup this week. He got to face the 54 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 1: Giants last week, which I said, you know that was 55 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: an easy matchup, but Niners much better defense to tight end. 56 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: So I think DeVante sets up perfectly for the captain's line. 57 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: I don't think his roster ship will be too high there, 58 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: or at least it shouldn't be as high as it 59 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: be in this matchup. 60 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's been playing real well and yeah, got a 61 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: monitor that ag looks like AJ Brown's gonna be fine. 62 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,679 Speaker 2: But yeah, anytime a guy gets like banged up, you 63 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 2: know you got to kind of pay attention because so 64 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: the minors practice status. But it's yeah, there's a good 65 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: chance DeVante just operates spot out as that number one, 66 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 2: and he usually runs more routes than aj anyway, I 67 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 2: mean rarely comes off the field for me. I'm going 68 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 2: gotta go to j with Jalen Hurts here. And I 69 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: think the fact that it could be a little more 70 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: of a neutral or negative games script even actually helps 71 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 2: Hurts because we already know what he's gonna do in 72 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 2: a positive game script. 73 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 3: He's gonna run the ball, but he might not throw 74 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 3: that much. 75 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 2: And you know, we saw last week he had just 76 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty four yards on twenty four attempts. 77 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 3: He did have two scores, so that was good. 78 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 2: But this week he could see him up over that 79 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 2: thirty attempt mark, which is where you really start to 80 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 2: get some value out of him in the past game. 81 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 3: And you know, I thought he looked fine running the 82 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 3: ball last week. 83 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 2: You know, nine carry for thirty four yards and a touchdown, 84 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 2: So they're not they're not afraid to run him near 85 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: the goal line. 86 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 3: So I think that's a positive here. 87 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 2: Now, obviously, you know if Brown is super banged up, 88 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 2: that that's the one thing that would not be ideal 89 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 2: for Hurts. But I do think the more banged up 90 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: Brown is, the more you see Hurts run. And the 91 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 2: one thing that's plagued the forty nine ers defense throughout 92 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 2: multiple postseasons. Now, you know, just all their defense has 93 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: always been pretty good these last few years, but scramblin 94 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: quarterbacks have given them issues. And you know we saw 95 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 2: last week, you know, Dak Prescott went well over his 96 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 2: rushing prop he had twenty two yards, Gino Smith the 97 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 2: week before twenty eight yards, and in week seventeen, Jared Stidham, 98 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 2: who I mean not really known as too big of 99 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 2: a runner, thirty four yards on the ground against his 100 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: nine or d So they, you know, they cover pretty 101 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 2: well and kind of forced, you know, the quarterback to 102 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 2: take off and make moves. So I think that's something 103 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 2: that you're gonna you can see a lot out of Hurts. 104 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 2: You know, we've seen his upside this year be you know, 105 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 2: seventeen rush attempts. He hit that mark three times this year, 106 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 2: and he's gotten over seventy five rush yards in four 107 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: games this year. He's gotten multiple rushing touchdowns three times. 108 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: So I think you could see a big running game 109 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: from Hurtz. But I also think you could see more 110 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 2: in the past game because you have a two and 111 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 2: a half point spread. The Eagles are usually blowing teams 112 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: out and this this is a Niner team that likely 113 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: is not getting getting blown out here if they even 114 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 2: lose the game at all. 115 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. 116 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: Really, it's the rushing touchdowns. You know that Eagles have 117 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: that QB sneak play on Lockdown as you said, you know, 118 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: QB getting rushing touchdowns in the captain slot is the 119 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: ultimate level. 120 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 121 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's that's why he's always He's always the 122 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: top option of the captain slot in this game. Is 123 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: certainly no different. 124 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 3: All right, who else do you like in this game? 125 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,679 Speaker 2: You know, dark Rows just great, you know, DFS, Chiccos, 126 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: just some some good value guys that you're going to 127 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: be kind of targeting to fill out your lineup in 128 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 2: this spot. 129 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, so in any Eagles game, Showdown Slate have to 130 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: consider Quz Watkins, although I do like your under bet 131 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: as always. You know, Quez, he just has a wide 132 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: range of outcomes. He's the ultimate boom bust type receiver. 133 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: So you could easily get zero catches on zero targets 134 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: like he did last week, or you know, a long touchdown. 135 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: You never know with him. But that's that's kind of 136 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: what we want on these one game slights. But yeah, 137 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: last week it was concerning to see his routes run 138 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: rate go all the way down to twenty seven percent. 139 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: Zach Pascal led the way with thirty eight percent routes 140 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: rate out of those two. So I don't know if 141 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: that could have had something to do with, you know, 142 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: a big lead. You don't really need Ques Watkins when 143 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:34,679 Speaker 1: you're up by twenty one or more. 144 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: Points, So you could have stopped that sentence after oh, 145 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 2: just you don't need question, I. 146 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 3: Mean this year, like we really haven't needed him this year. 147 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: Well they have AJ Brown, right, and so that's that's 148 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: the main reason. So I don't know if AJ Brown's 149 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: hip injury it is worse than we think, you know, 150 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: Quez could be used a little bit more. But either way, 151 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: we could see his routes run rate shoot back up 152 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: to the fifty five sixty percent range it typically is. 153 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: So again, as always, he's just a boom bust option 154 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: that I like to take a swing on whenever you 155 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: have a showdown slate. And on the niner side, I'm 156 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: going to go Juwan Jennings. He had his standard two 157 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: catches for twenty six yards last week. He was playing 158 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: through an ankle injury, so it was good to see 159 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: that he was able to at least run his typical 160 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: fifty eight percent routes run rate. I'm guessing he should 161 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: only be healthier this week since he made it through unscathed, 162 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: and he lines up in the slot more than Deebo actually, 163 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: so he might still be able to, you know, avoid 164 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: the Darius Slave James Bradbury coverage. Although he's never a 165 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: guy you're gonna expect or try to bank on a 166 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: four plus catch game from him, I think ultimately we're 167 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: just trying to get a cheap touchdown from him in 168 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: this spot. He hasn't scored since Week twelve, so I 169 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: think his roster ship is going to be extremely low 170 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: for one game slate. But you know, he's a guy 171 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: that they do scheme up plays in the red zone. 172 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: So I think there is a chance or good enough 173 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: chance that he does catch a touch on this game, 174 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: and I think he would be some sneaky leverage if 175 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: he does. 176 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely. 177 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 2: You know Jennings always and he's always going to be 178 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 2: out there because they love him as a blocker as well, 179 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: so it's never like his snaps are going to dip 180 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: too too far down. 181 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 3: He'll always be out there a. 182 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 2: Good amount all right for me, I'm going with I'm 183 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 2: actually go with Zach Pascal for the Eagles because you know, 184 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 2: I don't again, I don't know what's going on with Watkins. 185 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 2: Watkins ran his lowest route participation of the season last 186 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: year at twenty seven last week at twenty seven percent, 187 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 2: and that was with Brown banged up. So Pascal actually 188 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 2: had thirty eight percent. Now maybe that had to do 189 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: with the blowout, but routes, you know, you know, you're 190 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 2: not throwing that much when it's in a blowout, so 191 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 2: that the routes are still kind of when the game 192 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 2: was close. 193 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 3: So that was kind of interesting. 194 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 2: I'm wondering if perhaps they've view Pascal as more of 195 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 2: Aja Brown's direct backup, which would you know, kind of 196 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: you know, go into why he saw more of an 197 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 2: increase last week. 198 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 3: But either way, I think there's a good chance that, 199 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 3: you know, he could come. 200 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: Up big again and he he probably has a lower 201 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 2: roster ship than Quez at this point, just because Quez 202 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 2: has been that starter all year. 203 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 3: So like Pascal for. 204 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 2: The Eagles, another guy for the Eagles, Kenneth Gainwell, just 205 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 2: because this again you might see more neutral to negative 206 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: game script and Miles Sander is not really a guy 207 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 2: they used much. 208 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 3: In the past game. So let's say the Eagles get 209 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 3: down here. 210 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 2: You know, this is a high quality Niner team that's 211 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 2: ripped off a ton of wins in a row. Eagles 212 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 2: get down here, I think you're gonna see a ton 213 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 2: of gain Well and you could get you know, two, three, 214 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 2: four or five catches out of him if they're kind 215 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 2: of you know, have to go in some hurry up 216 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 2: mode in this game. So like Gainwell and then for 217 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: the Niners, it's gotta be Elijah Mitchell. You know, he's 218 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: seen a carrier target now on twenty six of his 219 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 2: thirty six postseason snaps. That's seventy two percent. I know 220 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 2: he got banged up, and but it looks like they're 221 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 2: saying he's gonna play. McCaffrey got banged up as well. 222 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: But I think you have the most kind of upside 223 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 2: with Mitchell if McCaffrey gets banged up, because McCaffrey's healthy, 224 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 2: he's still going to dominate the snaps. But we saw 225 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,439 Speaker 2: last week he kind of got banged up, and they, 226 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 2: you know, they sub Mitchell. And even though Mitchell, I 227 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 2: guess allegedly picked up somewhat of an injury too. They 228 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 2: kept going to him and to the point where he 229 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 2: only had two fewer touches than McCaffrey last week. 230 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 3: So I think Mitchell's an interesting guy. 231 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 2: And we saw him involved in the receiving game against 232 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 2: Seattle a couple of weeks ago, So I think Mitchell 233 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 2: is an interesting guy. 234 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 3: For the Niners. 235 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 2: You know, they're not really playing their backup tight ends 236 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 2: much use checks another guy you could consider. You know, 237 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 2: he's running around about thirty percent of the time in 238 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 2: the playoffs. But I just think Mitchell is a guy 239 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 2: that you know, they're not scared to give the ball 240 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: to in the red zone near the goal line, and 241 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 2: if McCaffrey, you know, reaggravates an injury, I do think 242 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: even a gimpy Mitchell would be given the call over 243 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 2: like Jordan Mason and ty Davis Price for as long as, 244 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 2: you know, as long as Mitchell could hold up. 245 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 3: This is kind of what we've seen out of Shanahan 246 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 3: thus far. 247 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: You know, he'll use those guys in the regular season, 248 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 2: but when the postseason hits, he's really trying to use, 249 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 2: you know, his top options. So that that also could 250 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 2: be really good for debo. You know, a little bit 251 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 2: of a post hype. I know he didn't do much 252 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 2: last week, but a little bit of a post hype 253 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 2: kind of, you know, captain play this week for debo 254 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 2: because I think he could be a lot more involved 255 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 2: in the run game. If you know McAffrey and Mitchell, 256 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 2: you know entered this game with an injury designation. 257 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So this is an interesting spot where both 258 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: CMC and Mitchell are on the injury report. I have 259 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: my notes from last year that you know, Mitchell was 260 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: able to play through a very painful shoulder injury and 261 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: he was very effective. So I have my notes. You know, 262 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: if he's playing and he's hurt, you know you can 263 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: trust him because he seems like a really tough back 264 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 1: And if he was able to play through that Childer 265 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: injury last year, I think the growing injury would be 266 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: a little bit easier. So yeah, I like the call, 267 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: especially against you know, an Eagles defense that's more of 268 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: a run funnel. And this is a game where I 269 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: think the Niners could lead. But once you get to 270 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,959 Speaker 1: the luck rankings, this is a spot where I think 271 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: I might actually be on the Niners. So I think 272 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: setting up lineups where the Niners have a positive game 273 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: script I think is gonna be the way to go here. 274 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 3: Also, I mean, good segue. What do you got for 275 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 3: the luck rankers? 276 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is a luck Rankings game. The Niners 277 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: ranked twenty fourth and the Eagles are six, so this 278 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: is a luck ranked differential of eighteen are are new 279 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: and improved luck Rankings two point zero likes the Niners 280 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: even more and it's gotten two and oh against the spread. 281 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think this is a spot where, Yeah, 282 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: obviously everybody knows the Niners are good, but they've been 283 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,599 Speaker 1: playing a lot better than their scores have even indicated. 284 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: So this is a spot where I like taking the 285 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: Niners if you can get them at plus three and 286 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: building lineups where they're going to play with a leading 287 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: game script as well. 288 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 2: I mean, so, would you buy the three because I 289 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 2: don't know if it's getting to three, you just it's 290 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 2: at two and a half. I doubt it would get 291 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 2: to three for any amount of time. Would you buy 292 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 2: the three? Would you still take them eight and a half? 293 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 2: Like are you just expecting them to win this game? 294 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 3: Or yeah? If anything? 295 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: For me, I would either buy the three. You know 296 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: how much I love that three or just take them 297 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: money line because yeah, it's less likely that two and 298 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 1: a half will come into play. Famous last words, I know, 299 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: but this is a spot I'd rather just take the 300 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 1: money line. But it's worth waiting. I think we have 301 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: seen a ton of action on the Eagles. If you 302 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: look at the more casual Twitter, people are wondering why 303 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: the Eagles are only minus two and a half. So 304 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: it's given me a reason just kind of wait because 305 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: you never know it could get up to three. But ultimately, 306 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: I think I'd rather just take Manors money line. 307 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 3: Gotcha all right? Well that is gonna do it. 308 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: For our NFC Championship preview on the Fantasy Flex, be 309 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 2: sure to check out the full luck rankings list at 310 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: actionnetwork dot com For more great fantasy content. 311 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: From Sean and I. 312 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 2: You can check out our full player Props episode over 313 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 2: on the Action Network podcast channel, and keep an eye 314 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 2: out for our Fantasy Flex ANFCY Championship game episode.
