<v Speaker 1>Hey, everybody, welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly. I am Paul

<v Speaker 1>Charchi and co hosts today are Scott Fish and Brian Johnson.

0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:30.720
<v Speaker 1>Hope you had great holidays, respectively.

0:00:31.040 --> 0:00:31.840
<v Speaker 4>What's up, fellows?

0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:34.440
<v Speaker 5>I did, I did, I got. I just got back

0:00:34.479 --> 0:00:37.880
<v Speaker 5>from my annual trip to the Theater Children's Theater production

0:00:37.960 --> 0:00:38.440
<v Speaker 5>of The Grinch.

0:00:38.680 --> 0:00:40.560
<v Speaker 4>Dude every year, it's great to have.

0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:43.120
<v Speaker 5>Every year.

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:44.880
<v Speaker 4>Does he stay evil this time?

0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:48.000
<v Speaker 6>I just want the remake one time where he's like, yeah,

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:49.320
<v Speaker 6>he's it's gonna be the Grnch forever.

0:00:49.560 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:53.080
<v Speaker 4>Wouldn't that figure with that? Just one one time out

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 4>of all?

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:56.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, they're gonna play at like fifty different times

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:59.720
<v Speaker 1>between now and Christmas. One time it doesn't really work

0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:02.840
<v Speaker 1>out for what's the little girl's name, Sidney Lho, right,

0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:04.640
<v Speaker 1>it does not work out for Sidney lu who she

0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:05.119
<v Speaker 1>gets eaten?

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.240
<v Speaker 5>Oh boy, oh.

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:10.959
<v Speaker 4>Boy, that took a dark twist it really did. This

0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:12.320
<v Speaker 4>show will not take it dark.

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:16.160
<v Speaker 1>It's all positivity on this show, well at least until

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:18.440
<v Speaker 1>we get to Patriots Giants. Then it's not so much

0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 1>prop positivity. But we will break down all the games.

0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:25.959
<v Speaker 6>Or if we recap the games from Thanksgiving, Black Friday.

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 4>Brutal, all of them one sided affairs.

0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:30.200
<v Speaker 6>The first one was all right, the Packers Lions are

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:31.080
<v Speaker 6>somewhat entertaining.

0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:31.800
<v Speaker 4>Give us points.

0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:32.199
<v Speaker 3>At least.

0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 4>We will break down all the games. We'll have three

0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:36.360
<v Speaker 4>tough questions.

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:38.320
<v Speaker 1>We'll have nine players upon whom you can take a chance,

0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:42.720
<v Speaker 1>and for one of the final weeks premature speculation as well.

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.679
<v Speaker 1>Let's jump right into the matchup. Scott, You've got a

0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:49.880
<v Speaker 1>particularly thorny one here with Jaguars Texans. Yeah, a lot

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.840
<v Speaker 1>of a lot of players that are sort of in

0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 1>the middle.

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:57.760
<v Speaker 5>Yes, Yes, I have almost exclusively b's and c's in

0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.680
<v Speaker 5>this matchup except for C. J. Stile. It's going to

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.520
<v Speaker 5>get any yes at this point. But Trevor Lawrence, I'm

0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:05.360
<v Speaker 5>giving a C two. Texans have allowed the fifth highest

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 5>pressure rate, which might force Trevor Lawrence to run around

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:10.520
<v Speaker 5>a little bit more like he did last week when

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.880
<v Speaker 5>he scored two rushing touchdowns. We urged you to start

0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:15.720
<v Speaker 5>Lawrence last week. That was Matt's take a chance on

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:17.720
<v Speaker 5>me player, and he scored four touchdowns last week. By

0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:21.400
<v Speaker 5>the way, nice job, yeah, nice peacock there. The Jags

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 5>have allowed Texans, Yes, the Texans have allowed multiple scores

0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:27.600
<v Speaker 5>in each of the last three two hund and sixty

0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:30.239
<v Speaker 5>flush five plus yards in each. I think Trevor Lawrence

0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:32.920
<v Speaker 5>can do okay here, but it's a it's a week

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:36.000
<v Speaker 5>with a lot of quarterbacks available, So just a C grade.

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:37.840
<v Speaker 4>They're not chasing last week's box score.

0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:39.880
<v Speaker 5>No, no, no, no, we've.

0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.119
<v Speaker 4>All been battle scarred. You don't think he's gonna run

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 4>for two touchdowns?

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:46.079
<v Speaker 5>No, not pass for two and run for no. I'm

0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:48.520
<v Speaker 5>thinking two sixty five and one to two scores, which

0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:51.440
<v Speaker 5>is a new low C level. Calvin Ridley, I got

0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 5>a B grade on If Zay Jones plays, he's questionable.

0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:58.359
<v Speaker 5>Matt Harmon was talking about this week, how uh the

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.959
<v Speaker 5>charting on it is. When Zay out there, teams cannot

0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:05.280
<v Speaker 5>man press on. Kelvin Ridley. So that's where his three

0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:08.560
<v Speaker 5>big games have come. He's had three huge days with

0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 5>a Jones out there.

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 4>I think that is a statistical coincidence.

0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:14.560
<v Speaker 5>It might be, but if you think about it, Kirk

0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:16.160
<v Speaker 5>is a slot guy and their fourth guy is a

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:19.200
<v Speaker 5>gadgety Jamal Agnew. They don't really have a guy on

0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 5>the other side to take any coverage. So B grade

0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 5>on Ridley if he goes C grade. If he doesn't go,

0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:26.960
<v Speaker 5>Christian Kirk is gonna get a C grade as well.

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:29.920
<v Speaker 5>The last four slot guys against the Texans eight for

0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:33.359
<v Speaker 5>seventy two, three for fifty one, eight for one seventeen,

0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:36.440
<v Speaker 5>and six for seventy six. And these are like Boyd

0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 5>Dorch Trey Palmer like, these are not like studs tearing

0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:44.640
<v Speaker 5>them up there. Christian Kirk can do well here. B

0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:48.200
<v Speaker 5>grade on Evan Ingram four plus catches in every single

0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 5>game this year, which is crazy to me.

0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 4>That's and how many touchdowns the show for Yeah.

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:56.480
<v Speaker 5>That's yeah, that's the problem right there. That'd be zero, yes, exactly.

0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:58.800
<v Speaker 5>He had seven for sixty seven in the first game.

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:01.000
<v Speaker 5>But the Texans have been nice for tight ends, allowing

0:04:01.000 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 5>the most receptions and fourth most yards. Trafsey TM is

0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:07.520
<v Speaker 5>gonna get a C grade here. A couple tougher days

0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:09.880
<v Speaker 5>in a row for him, against better run defenses. And

0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:13.560
<v Speaker 5>last week we saw Denis Johnson and Tank Bigsby each

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:18.480
<v Speaker 5>get eight to nine touches each. Not good, but that

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:22.080
<v Speaker 5>was one hundred and thirty yards total, and if Etn

0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:24.120
<v Speaker 5>gets a little bit more work, we can count on

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:26.760
<v Speaker 5>fifteen plus touches. He's gonna get the volume c here,

0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:29.360
<v Speaker 5>especially because he gets most of the pass game work

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 5>over to the Texan side. CJ. Stroud I already talked

0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:35.800
<v Speaker 5>about gotten A is getting an A. But I mean,

0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.280
<v Speaker 5>three hundred and eighty seven yards and three touchdowns per

0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:39.159
<v Speaker 5>game were less three.

0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:39.799
<v Speaker 4>That's crazy.

0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 5>That's that's insane level of production.

0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:46.679
<v Speaker 1>I believe last weekend's three interception game for CJ. Stroud

0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 1>was his first in his life.

0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:52.799
<v Speaker 5>Oh wow, yeah, yeah, that doesn't That really doesn't actually

0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:56.120
<v Speaker 5>surprise me that much. JAG's allowing twelfth to twelfth most

0:04:56.160 --> 0:04:58.760
<v Speaker 5>fantasy points to quarterbacks. It's a good spot for him

0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:02.240
<v Speaker 5>in general. Over the wide receivers, Tank Dell and Nico

0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:04.839
<v Speaker 5>Collins are both getting B grades with no Brown on

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:06.720
<v Speaker 5>the bench. I'm gonna give the slide edge to Dell

0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:09.280
<v Speaker 5>if you have to choose between them. For some reason,

0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:12.279
<v Speaker 5>he gets the deeper plays when Nico's on the field

0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:15.480
<v Speaker 5>with him. Their wide receiver thirteen and wide receiver sixteen

0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:17.840
<v Speaker 5>on the season. Tank has scored four times in the

0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:21.320
<v Speaker 5>last three games, but the big perimeter guy has scored

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:23.760
<v Speaker 5>in four straight on the Jags. That's kind of where

0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:26.560
<v Speaker 5>the scorings go, and the Jags have actually allowed a

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:29.760
<v Speaker 5>wide receiver touchdown in every single game this season. I

0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 5>think he's the more likely one to score. Fifth in

0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:36.599
<v Speaker 5>yards after the catch is Nico Collins B grades on

0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 5>both of them. No Brown is out in case he

0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:41.200
<v Speaker 5>didn't know. Dalton Schultz is going to get a C grade.

0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:44.600
<v Speaker 5>He's scored in five of his last seven. He just

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.640
<v Speaker 5>keeps scoring. No Brown being out can only help that

0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 5>a little bit more. He did need to score last week,

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:53.520
<v Speaker 5>but Kittle went for four for one hundred and thirteen

0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:55.799
<v Speaker 5>last week. On this Jags team, they're allowing the seventh

0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:58.040
<v Speaker 5>most yards to tight ends. It's a good spot C

0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 5>grade for Dalton Schultz end Damian Pierce does return, I'm

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:05.120
<v Speaker 5>not gonna trust it. I'm not gonna trust it.

0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:06.719
<v Speaker 4>Why we gotta see it first.

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:09.039
<v Speaker 5>We gotta see it. Even though the coach said they're

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:12.039
<v Speaker 5>still gonna split. I gotta see it first, and he

0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:15.479
<v Speaker 5>did practice in fall. But Devin Singletary is gonna gonna

0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:17.880
<v Speaker 5>get the sea here. The Jags allowed the most receptions

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:21.840
<v Speaker 5>for most receiving yards to backs. That's not really either

0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:23.559
<v Speaker 5>of their games, but if it's one of their games,

0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:26.560
<v Speaker 5>it's probably more Devin Singletaries. He's probably gonna get a

0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.520
<v Speaker 5>little bit more workflow, probably twelve to fifteen touch volume.

0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:30.000
<v Speaker 5>See there.

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:32.640
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's go over to the Saints and Falcons

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:37.440
<v Speaker 1>interdivisional matchup that could have some playoff ramifications for one

0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:38.080
<v Speaker 1>of these teams.

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 4>Let's start on the Saints side.

0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:43.159
<v Speaker 6>Brian, Yeah, it shouldn't have playoff ramifications. The whole division

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:46.000
<v Speaker 6>needs to be nuked, the NFC South. But yeah, first

0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:49.080
<v Speaker 6>meeting of the season for these division rivals, both teams

0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.880
<v Speaker 6>coming off their bye as well. But starting with the

0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.960
<v Speaker 6>Saints and the running game Alvin Kamara, just to see

0:06:55.000 --> 0:06:57.919
<v Speaker 6>from him going back to last season, Kamara has not

0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 6>scored against the Falcons in three eight games and he

0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:03.800
<v Speaker 6>might have trouble ending that drought because the Falcons have

0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:09.000
<v Speaker 6>surrendered three total touchdowns running backs all season, zero rushing

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:11.880
<v Speaker 6>and three receiving. Of course, Cameric can catch the ball

0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:14.360
<v Speaker 6>so there's some hope, but overall it's a bad matchup

0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:17.200
<v Speaker 6>on paper. Opposing running backs or averaging just one hundred

0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:20.240
<v Speaker 6>and nine combo yards per game against against Atlanta, those

0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:22.080
<v Speaker 6>aren't great numbers. But you're not gonna sit Kamara in

0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:26.520
<v Speaker 6>this one. Not gonna sit Chris Olave either, But I'm close.

0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:29.600
<v Speaker 6>But I'm gonna give a love. Ac total just six

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.600
<v Speaker 6>catches for ninety four scoreless yards in two games against

0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:35.360
<v Speaker 6>the Falcons last year, and it remains a tough matchup

0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:39.480
<v Speaker 6>for him as well. Especially with AJ Terrell at corner

0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:42.280
<v Speaker 6>for the Falcons, He'll probably be following Olave a Lotterrell

0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 6>is one of the better corners in the league. The

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 6>Falcons are allowing less than eleven catches one hundred and

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:50.040
<v Speaker 6>thirty yards per game to opposing wide receivers, but they

0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:54.280
<v Speaker 6>have surrendered eleven touchdowns of the position, so Olave remains

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:56.440
<v Speaker 6>startable even in a tough matchup. But I do have

0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:59.120
<v Speaker 6>Rashid Shahed on the bench charge.

0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:01.640
<v Speaker 4>Make him this. I do as well. I just like him.

0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:04.360
<v Speaker 4>Don't like this. If you're in a pinch, starts you heating.

0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:06.040
<v Speaker 6>He probably won't see a whole lot of Aj Terrell

0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:08.560
<v Speaker 6>he feels like more of a DFS dark to me,

0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:13.600
<v Speaker 6>not like a trustable option in a standard fantasy. Even

0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:16.600
<v Speaker 6>with Michael Thomas on i R. There is a really

0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 6>intriguing rookie receiver for the Saints. So we'll talk about

0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:22.440
<v Speaker 6>him a little later. I won't mention him now, but

0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:25.800
<v Speaker 6>I got sat on the bench, so charge charge gives

0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:26.880
<v Speaker 6>him a sea though, I think so.

0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:27.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we'll leave it.

0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:30.160
<v Speaker 6>Up to you out there to decide to start you

0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:31.880
<v Speaker 6>heat or not. You have to pick your spots, but

0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:33.600
<v Speaker 6>well I picked mine, You pick yours?

0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:34.840
<v Speaker 4>That fair enough.

0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:37.720
<v Speaker 6>Over to the tight ends. Taysom Hill, Yeah, tight end.

0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:40.240
<v Speaker 6>I guess it depends where you play most sites. He's

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:42.679
<v Speaker 6>a tight end. And Jawan Johnson. I'm giving both of

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:44.960
<v Speaker 6>them a see. We all know the story with Hill.

0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.400
<v Speaker 6>He is a lotto ticket. But he's hit in each

0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:51.920
<v Speaker 6>of his last three games against Atlanta, passing touchdown, rushing touchdown,

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:55.040
<v Speaker 6>passing touchdown for Taysom Hill his last three.

0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:56.560
<v Speaker 4>So you never know what you want to get, all

0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:58.640
<v Speaker 4>or nothing. Guy, You got to pick your spots, right,

0:08:58.720 --> 0:08:59.960
<v Speaker 4>and Taysom Hill is a definite.

0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:03.560
<v Speaker 6>And that again, that's last three against the Falcons.

0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:05.840
<v Speaker 4>Not in general, but I don't know.

0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:08.319
<v Speaker 6>You throw throw a dart every week with Taysom mill

0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:09.200
<v Speaker 6>Jawan Johnson.

0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:10.440
<v Speaker 4>I like the matchup for him.

0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:13.640
<v Speaker 6>The Falcons are allowing more than six catches and sixty

0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.360
<v Speaker 6>yards per game to opposing tight ends, tight ends that

0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:19.400
<v Speaker 6>actually play tight end. So a sea for Johnson and

0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:24.760
<v Speaker 6>a sea for Derek Carr. Alano is allowing just sorry,

0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:27.960
<v Speaker 6>just over one hundred, two hundred and fifteen passing yards

0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:31.320
<v Speaker 6>per game, but they have surrendered seventeen passing touchdowns. That's

0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:33.760
<v Speaker 6>the third most among teams that have played ten games,

0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:36.600
<v Speaker 6>So a see for Derek Carr. Over to the Falcon side,

0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 6>We'll start with Jon Robinson.

0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:39.000
<v Speaker 4>He gets a see.

0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:41.800
<v Speaker 6>Handled twenty two carries in his last game played in

0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:44.640
<v Speaker 6>Week ten, seventy five percent of that the snaps as well,

0:09:44.960 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 6>both season highs for Robinson, so hopefully that trend continues

0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:50.400
<v Speaker 6>after the bye.

0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:52.880
<v Speaker 5>No, no, Arthur Smith lost that game. He's gonna go

0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:53.440
<v Speaker 5>right back.

0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:56.400
<v Speaker 4>Probably right either way.

0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:59.600
<v Speaker 6>A brutal matchup for the Falcons running backs. The Saints

0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:02.560
<v Speaker 6>are allowed less than four yards per carry. They've allowed

0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:07.320
<v Speaker 6>us four total touchdowns all season, zero receiving. Only two

0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 6>opposing backs have managed to crack eighty rushing yards against

0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:13.839
<v Speaker 6>New Orleans, and since Week three, no opposing back has

0:10:13.840 --> 0:10:18.080
<v Speaker 6>cleared twenty five receiving yards. So for those reasons, Tyler

0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:21.120
<v Speaker 6>Algier is on the bench. Even if Arthur Smith reverts

0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:23.559
<v Speaker 6>back to his same old Shenanigans. He did look like

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:27.000
<v Speaker 6>a true backup in Week ten and again hopefully that

0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:30.600
<v Speaker 6>trend continues for the Bejon managers. But a bad matchup

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 6>for Bejon ce for him Alger on the bench. See

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:37.120
<v Speaker 6>for Drake London had two decent games against New Orleans

0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:40.120
<v Speaker 6>last year, seven catches for seventy yards and five catches

0:10:40.160 --> 0:10:43.920
<v Speaker 6>for seventy four, but that's likely his ceiling against standout

0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:47.200
<v Speaker 6>corner Marshawn Lattimore and the same secondary allowing less than

0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:49.640
<v Speaker 6>twelve catches and one hundred and forty yards per game

0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:53.360
<v Speaker 6>to wide receivers. They've also also streandered just seven scores

0:10:53.640 --> 0:10:56.880
<v Speaker 6>to wide receivers all year. So the softest of softest

0:10:56.880 --> 0:10:59.160
<v Speaker 6>of seas for Drake London, but a solid B for

0:10:59.240 --> 0:10:59.880
<v Speaker 6>Kyle Pitts.

0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:02.400
<v Speaker 4>I don't care. I know he doesn't.

0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:06.680
<v Speaker 6>Play on tight end technically, but the Saints have allowed

0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:09.920
<v Speaker 6>at least one tight end touchdown five of.

0:11:09.920 --> 0:11:12.840
<v Speaker 1>The last time you were right, or on Kyle Pits,

0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:16.080
<v Speaker 1>or on your grade for Kyle Pits where he either

0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:18.680
<v Speaker 1>hit your grade, or the last time the last.

0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 4>Time I said started me sort of touchdown.

0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:24.760
<v Speaker 6>And speaking of touchdowns, the Saint se have allowed at

0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:26.800
<v Speaker 6>least one tight end touchdown in five of the last

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:30.160
<v Speaker 6>seven games. Opposing tight ends are also averaging nearly five

0:11:30.240 --> 0:11:31.160
<v Speaker 6>catches and fifty.

0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:31.920
<v Speaker 4>Yards per game.

0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:34.120
<v Speaker 6>So a seed for Pits sounds like, no, it's not

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:38.680
<v Speaker 6>well again. Whoever listeners out there, pick whatever side you

0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:40.760
<v Speaker 6>want there. But I got to see on Pits Smith

0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:42.960
<v Speaker 6>on the bench and Desmond Ritter got his job back.

0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:44.800
<v Speaker 4>But he's back on the bench.

0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:48.280
<v Speaker 5>Church. I purposely give Brian the Falcons matchup.

0:11:48.280 --> 0:11:50.200
<v Speaker 4>Oh I know you did.

0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:50.640
<v Speaker 3>I think.

0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:53.000
<v Speaker 1>I think you do that on purpose every time you

0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:54.200
<v Speaker 1>dole these out, no doubt.

0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:56.280
<v Speaker 6>At least Gott just sits there and laughs rather than

0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:57.960
<v Speaker 6>charging Matt ganging up on me.

0:11:58.040 --> 0:11:59.360
<v Speaker 4>But I can handle it. It's all good.

0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know's to listen by now, Listeners know to

0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.559
<v Speaker 1>take anything you say about Kyle Pitts with the grain asilums.

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:08.080
<v Speaker 1>At least Brown's taking on Broncos. Let's start with Jerome

0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:11.520
<v Speaker 1>Ford with a great, big, best matchup on paper of

0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:15.640
<v Speaker 1>his season. Right here, Bronco's allowing a league worst one

0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:18.800
<v Speaker 1>hundred and eighty two total yards per game to opposing

0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:24.400
<v Speaker 1>running backs. That's forty more than the next worst defense.

0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:25.439
<v Speaker 4>Holy cow.

0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:28.640
<v Speaker 1>They also allow one point three touchdowns per game to

0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:32.839
<v Speaker 1>opposing running backs, third worst. So now Ford should be

0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 1>an A grade here, But last week Kareem Hunt got

0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:39.480
<v Speaker 1>as many carries as Ford did, and so Ford and

0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:41.760
<v Speaker 1>fortably managed two point six yards per carry last week.

0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:43.440
<v Speaker 1>So I'm hedging a little bit on Ford with the

0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:46.720
<v Speaker 1>B grade here, but Kareem Hunt also C grade because

0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:50.120
<v Speaker 1>of the extremely positive matchup Ford gets should get more work.

0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:51.240
<v Speaker 4>But Kareem Hunt.

0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely startable here as well. The only two parts of

0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 1>the passing game you're gonna start in this DTR led

0:12:56.640 --> 0:13:02.199
<v Speaker 1>passing offense David and Joku. By the way, five drops

0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:06.000
<v Speaker 1>for David and Joku in the past three sorry, two games.

0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:10.520
<v Speaker 1>It's been a disaster, but a staggering number of targets

0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:13.680
<v Speaker 1>with DTR. Get this, David and Joku the last two weeks.

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:17.280
<v Speaker 4>Twenty four targets. Jesus unbelievable.

0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:20.360
<v Speaker 1>We see this all the time. Rookie quarterbacks love their

0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:24.040
<v Speaker 1>tight ends. The Broncos allow the most yards per game,

0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:27.079
<v Speaker 1>the fourth most receptions, and the fifth most touchdowns the

0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:29.760
<v Speaker 1>tight end. So David and Joku with a B grade.

0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:33.400
<v Speaker 1>Amari Cooper comes in with a C grade. Tricky matchup

0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:36.480
<v Speaker 1>has will almost certainly see shadow coverage from excellent cornerback.

0:13:36.520 --> 0:13:37.280
<v Speaker 4>Patrick's certain.

0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:40.079
<v Speaker 1>And here's what opposing number ones have done to Denver lately.

0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Jordan Addison forty four scoreless yards, Stefan Diggs thirty four

0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:50.160
<v Speaker 1>scoreless yards, Romeo Dobbs thirty scoreless yards. Over the past

0:13:50.200 --> 0:13:52.920
<v Speaker 1>five weeks, Denvers allowing the fifth fewest wide receiver yards

0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:56.040
<v Speaker 1>the third fewest wide receiver touchdowns. Two of Cooper's three

0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:59.439
<v Speaker 1>lowest yardage outputs of the season have come in DTR's

0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:01.920
<v Speaker 1>two starts. I had a C grade in Cooper. I

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:03.840
<v Speaker 1>just tucked myself out of it. I'm going bench grade

0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>on Amari Cooper. And then let's go over to the

0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Denver side. Let's start with the running backs there, Devonte Williams.

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:10.839
<v Speaker 1>I see a lot of carries coming in this game.

0:14:11.120 --> 0:14:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Browns are easier to run upon than throw, and mostly

0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:17.400
<v Speaker 1>that's how Sean Payton's been winning games for this past

0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:19.880
<v Speaker 1>month has been by running Williams, who's had a ton

0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:22.840
<v Speaker 1>of catches over Denver's four game winning stretches as well.

0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:23.760
<v Speaker 4>He had.

0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Eighteen touches, thirty touches, twenty five touches just thirteen last week,

0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:33.200
<v Speaker 1>suggesting he's resty and he's ready for another high volume game.

0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland allows the seventh most yards per carry, and the

0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:38.920
<v Speaker 1>and the Browns do have the best run stop win rate,

0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:41.840
<v Speaker 1>but through sheer volume, I think Williams remains bankable here

0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:43.360
<v Speaker 1>and he comes in with a B grade.

0:14:43.760 --> 0:14:44.760
<v Speaker 4>I do like the volume.

0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:47.480
<v Speaker 5>In fairness to that thirteen. They were behind all game

0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:49.360
<v Speaker 5>and they were having p Ryan in the pass game.

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:50.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's a good point.

0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:52.240
<v Speaker 5>That's a good point why he had thirteen.

0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:55.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, so man, JP Ryan third among running backs and

0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:56.240
<v Speaker 6>receiving yards.

0:14:57.000 --> 0:14:57.600
<v Speaker 4>It is wow.

0:14:57.720 --> 0:14:58.040
<v Speaker 5>Truth.

0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.400
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I would never have guessed that that's a it's

0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:02.840
<v Speaker 6>McCaffrey or with Shad White and then some a JP run.

0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Holy cow, I you'd have given me. I don't know,

0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:09.400
<v Speaker 1>thirty guesses. I don't think I would have gotten to

0:15:09.440 --> 0:15:10.040
<v Speaker 1>that conclusion.

0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:12.560
<v Speaker 4>Zero receiving touchdowns but thirty yards.

0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let's talk about the passing game for the Broncos,

0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:17.520
<v Speaker 1>and we'll wrap up this segment. Courtland Sutton, I love

0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:19.640
<v Speaker 1>the touchdowns and I'm not ruling one out here, but

0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland is a very tough matchup. They've surrendered the fewest

0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:27.080
<v Speaker 1>receptions the third fewest yards to opposing wide receivers. Sutton

0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:29.960
<v Speaker 1>matchup most often with Denzel Ward. Ward is allowing just

0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:32.600
<v Speaker 1>three scores in his coverage, none in the last four games,

0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:35.200
<v Speaker 1>and just a catch rate of just fifty one percent.

0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:38.360
<v Speaker 1>That's very low by cornerback standards C grade for Courtland Sutton,

0:15:38.680 --> 0:15:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Jerry Judy, I was ready to get put on the bench,

0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:43.640
<v Speaker 1>but I think you can attack slot cornerback Greg News

0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:45.640
<v Speaker 1>him a little bit. He allows a passer rating of

0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:48.200
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and five and he's been beaten for two

0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:51.520
<v Speaker 1>scores in the last four games. Judy doesn't score very often,

0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:53.440
<v Speaker 1>but if you're looking for five catches for fifty yards,

0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:55.040
<v Speaker 1>Judy's your guy, and you can start him here with

0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.360
<v Speaker 1>a segrat And that really only leaves Russell Wilson to

0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:03.640
<v Speaker 1>discuss here. Get this, guys, he's averaging twenty completions per game.

0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:04.360
<v Speaker 4>That's it.

0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:06.640
<v Speaker 1>They just aren't passing and they don't need to and

0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland allows.

0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:09.640
<v Speaker 4>How about this. You want a.

0:16:09.640 --> 0:16:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Crazy stats samaj p Rand level crazy stat. Brown's allowing

0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:17.280
<v Speaker 1>fourteen completions per game.

0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:19.880
<v Speaker 4>That's unbelievable.

0:16:20.960 --> 0:16:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't like the receiver matchups very much for Wilson,

0:16:23.400 --> 0:16:26.400
<v Speaker 1>as I mentioned, and he's going to face tremendous pressure.

0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland ranks fourth in pass rush win rate and Cleveland

0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:33.000
<v Speaker 1>allows the fewest passing yards the fewest passing touchdowns. So

0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:37.040
<v Speaker 1>Russ is on the bench when we come back. Oh,

0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:39.280
<v Speaker 1>nine players upon whom you can take a chance. We

0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:41.880
<v Speaker 1>got four games already in the books, so these are

0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:44.080
<v Speaker 1>going to be a little deeper dives than normal. That

0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:45.520
<v Speaker 1>means a lot of these p lawyers are going to

0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:49.160
<v Speaker 1>be available on your waiver wire. Find out who they

0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:51.360
<v Speaker 1>are when we come back for the second segment of

0:16:51.440 --> 0:17:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Fantasy Football Weekly.

0:17:24.480 --> 0:17:25.480
<v Speaker 4>Take a chance on me.

0:17:26.400 --> 0:17:30.720
<v Speaker 1>Nine players not normally in your starting lineup. Let's find

0:17:30.720 --> 0:17:33.000
<v Speaker 1>out who they are. Beginning with Scott Fish your quarterback

0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:33.639
<v Speaker 1>this week.

0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:39.880
<v Speaker 5>Yes, my quarterback for the week is Gardner Minshew. Yeah.

0:17:39.359 --> 0:17:43.080
<v Speaker 5>He's playing a matchup against the Bucks who have allowed

0:17:43.080 --> 0:17:45.160
<v Speaker 5>a lot of really really good games but to really

0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:49.360
<v Speaker 5>good quarterbacks. But they allow the sixth highest pass right.

0:17:49.480 --> 0:17:53.040
<v Speaker 5>Teams are always throwing on the Bucks. Multiple scores and

0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:56.160
<v Speaker 5>three hundred plus and three the last five for Gardner Minshew.

0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:58.840
<v Speaker 5>The two he didn't were the two games he barely

0:17:58.880 --> 0:18:00.960
<v Speaker 5>had Josh downs. He need his will be out there.

0:18:00.960 --> 0:18:02.760
<v Speaker 5>His Woodby is going to be out there for this one.

0:18:03.400 --> 0:18:04.640
<v Speaker 5>I really like him in this one.

0:18:04.680 --> 0:18:08.400
<v Speaker 1>You mean Jelanie Woods is coming back? No ham string

0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:10.119
<v Speaker 1>in the history of mankind?

0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:14.600
<v Speaker 4>What happened? They're big ham strings? Yeah, big ham strings.

0:18:14.600 --> 0:18:17.040
<v Speaker 4>Good happens. You take a chance on me, quarterback, Brian.

0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:19.560
<v Speaker 6>Have you got Matt Stafford at Arizona? Now, initially I

0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.920
<v Speaker 6>was gonna take this like snarky angle, assuming Cooper Cupp

0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:25.119
<v Speaker 6>was going to miss this game, because Matt Stafford averages

0:18:25.200 --> 0:18:27.840
<v Speaker 6>like fifty more passing yards per game when Cooper Cupp

0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:30.119
<v Speaker 6>is inactive. But Cooper Cup is going to play in

0:18:30.119 --> 0:18:32.760
<v Speaker 6>this game. But I'm still gonna roll with Matt Staffe.

0:18:33.080 --> 0:18:36.840
<v Speaker 6>Matt Stafford at Arizona. These teams met in Week six,

0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:39.440
<v Speaker 6>Stafford only at two hundred and twenty six passing yards

0:18:39.440 --> 0:18:43.119
<v Speaker 6>and one passing touchdown because Cooper Cup played in that game.

0:18:43.400 --> 0:18:45.600
<v Speaker 6>But also Kyler Murray did not play in that game,

0:18:45.800 --> 0:18:49.119
<v Speaker 6>and we love Josh Dobbs and in Minnesota, of course,

0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:51.840
<v Speaker 6>but Kyler Murray is an upgrade over Josh Dobbs at

0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:54.880
<v Speaker 6>quarterback for the Cardinals. So I see this game being

0:18:54.880 --> 0:18:57.479
<v Speaker 6>a little more competitive, and the Cardinals are allowing more

0:18:57.520 --> 0:19:00.000
<v Speaker 6>than one and a half passing touchdowns per game.

0:19:00.080 --> 0:19:02.199
<v Speaker 4>So I'm going with Matt Stafford at Arizona.

0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's a perfect lead into my take a chance

0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:08.080
<v Speaker 1>to me quarterback? Who is Kyler Murray? Through two games?

0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:11.119
<v Speaker 1>I think his passing has looked pretty good, not great,

0:19:11.160 --> 0:19:15.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty good, and his runnings looked really good, totally unaffected

0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:18.639
<v Speaker 1>by the AC album. It's shocking, including rushing touchdowns in

0:19:18.680 --> 0:19:21.720
<v Speaker 1>both his games back, averaging forty one ground yards. I

0:19:21.760 --> 0:19:24.880
<v Speaker 1>did not, I absolutely did not see the running coming

0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:27.080
<v Speaker 1>from Kyler mur Murray off the ages.

0:19:26.800 --> 0:19:28.800
<v Speaker 5>That one scrambled in his first game back. I'm like, oh,

0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:29.280
<v Speaker 5>he's back.

0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:30.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he looked.

0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:31.400
<v Speaker 4>He looked completely like his old self.

0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:35.440
<v Speaker 1>The Rams allowed four quarterback rushing touchdowns already, and every

0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:39.359
<v Speaker 1>mobile quarterback they face is feasted on the Rams. Anthony Richardson,

0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:43.600
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Hurts, Josh Dobbs all topped forty seven yards and

0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:46.280
<v Speaker 1>two of the three scored rushing touchdowns against the Rams.

0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Kyler's arms is just icing on the cake here. The

0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:52.240
<v Speaker 1>Rams secondary pretty good, but every quarterback except Kenny Pickett

0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:55.159
<v Speaker 1>and the then very hobbl Joe Burrow have thrown touchdowns

0:19:55.400 --> 0:19:58.280
<v Speaker 1>against the Rams. Kyler, Murray, you taking chance on me

0:19:58.359 --> 0:19:59.879
<v Speaker 1>quarterback to go to the running back positions?

0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:03.160
<v Speaker 5>Yes, charge game him a secrete in the last segment,

0:20:03.280 --> 0:20:05.679
<v Speaker 5>but he didn't go into depth because he knew I

0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:08.760
<v Speaker 5>was about to about how Kareem Hunch be in your

0:20:08.800 --> 0:20:12.200
<v Speaker 5>lineups this week. The Broncos allowing a league high one

0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:16.240
<v Speaker 5>eighty two total yards per game to the opposing running backs,

0:20:16.320 --> 0:20:19.840
<v Speaker 5>nearly forty yards per game more than the second worst team.

0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:22.680
<v Speaker 5>They also allow one point three touchdowns per game to

0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:25.760
<v Speaker 5>opposing running backs. That's good for third most, and the

0:20:25.760 --> 0:20:29.560
<v Speaker 5>Broncos have the worst run stop win rate in per

0:20:30.080 --> 0:20:30.880
<v Speaker 5>ESPN Analytics.

0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:31.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, nice job.

0:20:32.480 --> 0:20:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Totally agree with that because our previously mentioned yes, Brian,

0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:38.080
<v Speaker 1>you take a chance from your running back.

0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:44.560
<v Speaker 6>I've got backup Steelers running back Najie Harris at Cincinnati.

0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:47.440
<v Speaker 4>Yes, offensive coordinator Matt Canada.

0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:51.680
<v Speaker 6>Canada fired to everyone's the light except Matt Canada's probably

0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:54.880
<v Speaker 6>hopefully benefits the entire offense. But again, at this point,

0:20:55.000 --> 0:20:57.800
<v Speaker 6>Harris should be considered the backup to Jalen Warren. We'll

0:20:57.800 --> 0:20:58.359
<v Speaker 6>talk more.

0:20:58.240 --> 0:21:01.040
<v Speaker 4>About that a little later. Back he's I think that

0:21:01.080 --> 0:21:03.920
<v Speaker 4>he's still considered the starter. Well in terms of touches,

0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:08.760
<v Speaker 4>it's like equal and just. But anyway back to Harris.

0:21:08.800 --> 0:21:10.639
<v Speaker 6>There still should be enough meat on the bone for

0:21:10.680 --> 0:21:13.320
<v Speaker 6>Harris against the Bengals, who are allowing nearly one hundred

0:21:13.320 --> 0:21:16.440
<v Speaker 6>and twenty conbo yards any touchdown per game to opposing

0:21:16.520 --> 0:21:19.560
<v Speaker 6>running backs. And of course those stats came with Joe

0:21:19.600 --> 0:21:22.320
<v Speaker 6>Burrow at quarterback, and no, Burrow was not good at

0:21:22.400 --> 0:21:25.200
<v Speaker 6>stopping the run, but he did help keep the Bengals

0:21:25.400 --> 0:21:29.000
<v Speaker 6>offense on the field, which I'm not convinced Jake Browning

0:21:29.000 --> 0:21:30.359
<v Speaker 6>will do. So I think we're going to see a

0:21:30.440 --> 0:21:33.159
<v Speaker 6>very run heavy game script from the Steelers. So I

0:21:33.160 --> 0:21:35.600
<v Speaker 6>got Najie Harris. Most people are very scared to start

0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:36.600
<v Speaker 6>at this point, and they should be.

0:21:36.800 --> 0:21:39.520
<v Speaker 1>If you give me a reason to start, ty J. Spears,

0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:42.480
<v Speaker 1>I will do that in Carolinas that reason. Now, normally

0:21:42.520 --> 0:21:45.000
<v Speaker 1>this is the time of year when Derek Henry starts

0:21:45.160 --> 0:21:50.399
<v Speaker 1>battering tired defenses, but not now. He's fading hard with

0:21:50.480 --> 0:21:53.960
<v Speaker 1>back to back massive dud games totaling twenty eight yards

0:21:53.960 --> 0:21:56.520
<v Speaker 1>and forty four yards and barely three yards per carry.

0:21:56.800 --> 0:22:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Now over the past three weeks, Taj Spears has more

0:22:00.080 --> 0:22:04.040
<v Speaker 1>more snaps than Derrick Henry, only about half the volume

0:22:04.160 --> 0:22:07.520
<v Speaker 1>but half the touches, but more snaps. Spears is averaging

0:22:07.640 --> 0:22:10.639
<v Speaker 1>five and a half yards per carry, a full yard

0:22:10.680 --> 0:22:13.480
<v Speaker 1>more than Henry, and maybe, just maybe, a desperate Titan

0:22:13.560 --> 0:22:15.600
<v Speaker 1>staff is gonna start looking for some jews from a

0:22:15.640 --> 0:22:19.440
<v Speaker 1>failing running game that to support a failing rookie quarterback.

0:22:19.920 --> 0:22:22.960
<v Speaker 1>Caroline has allowed the most rushing touchdowns, the second most

0:22:23.040 --> 0:22:26.080
<v Speaker 1>rushing yards, and Spears also, by the way, he's just

0:22:26.119 --> 0:22:26.600
<v Speaker 1>really good.

0:22:26.680 --> 0:22:27.920
<v Speaker 5>Jus let's start him.

0:22:28.760 --> 0:22:30.000
<v Speaker 4>Let's go to our take a chance on me.

0:22:30.119 --> 0:22:33.840
<v Speaker 5>Receivers, Scott, Yeah, I'm going over to New England. Gonna

0:22:33.880 --> 0:22:36.480
<v Speaker 5>get Pop Douglas in the lineups this week. Giants allowing

0:22:36.520 --> 0:22:39.240
<v Speaker 5>the third most receptions and second most receiving yards to

0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:42.840
<v Speaker 5>opposing wide receivers. Pop Douglas himself has had a twenty

0:22:42.960 --> 0:22:45.479
<v Speaker 5>four percent target share over the last four for New England,

0:22:45.760 --> 0:22:49.560
<v Speaker 5>five plus catches in three straight. His snaps targets catches, yards,

0:22:49.600 --> 0:22:53.240
<v Speaker 5>everything have increased each week for the last month.

0:22:53.400 --> 0:22:57.200
<v Speaker 4>Wow. Yeah, all right, Brian, your take a chance on me, receiver.

0:22:58.040 --> 0:23:00.239
<v Speaker 6>I was gonna go to to at Well again. I

0:23:00.280 --> 0:23:02.159
<v Speaker 6>was assuming that Cooper Cup was gonna sit, but he

0:23:02.240 --> 0:23:03.840
<v Speaker 6>is not. So two to two is out. So I'm

0:23:03.880 --> 0:23:05.800
<v Speaker 6>going back to the Steelers, and I got tight end

0:23:05.840 --> 0:23:10.040
<v Speaker 6>Pat Fryermuth Mouth. He's might take a chance on me receiver.

0:23:10.200 --> 0:23:12.080
<v Speaker 6>Just one catch in his return last week, but that

0:23:12.200 --> 0:23:15.560
<v Speaker 6>was against Cleveland. He was needed as a blocker as

0:23:15.600 --> 0:23:17.600
<v Speaker 6>with the other Pittsburgh tight ends, but I think he

0:23:17.640 --> 0:23:20.280
<v Speaker 6>sees more work as a receiver in this one. Mouth

0:23:20.320 --> 0:23:23.119
<v Speaker 6>has had at least seventy five yards or a touchdown

0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:26.240
<v Speaker 6>catch in each of his four career games against the Bengals,

0:23:26.520 --> 0:23:29.600
<v Speaker 6>who are allowing nearly six catches and sixty five yards

0:23:29.600 --> 0:23:31.960
<v Speaker 6>per game to tight end. So I think Mouth comes

0:23:31.960 --> 0:23:34.240
<v Speaker 6>in this week and shine some light on the tight

0:23:34.320 --> 0:23:34.920
<v Speaker 6>end wasteland.

0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Isaiah Likely is your new starting tight end for Baltimore.

0:23:38.440 --> 0:23:41.359
<v Speaker 1>Mark Andrews leaves behind seven targets per game, and I

0:23:41.400 --> 0:23:43.400
<v Speaker 1>think most of those seven go right to Isaiah Likely,

0:23:43.440 --> 0:23:48.960
<v Speaker 1>who's got the innate athleticism to run. Andrews routes, and

0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:51.560
<v Speaker 1>the Baltimore starting wide receivers are all dealing with injury

0:23:51.640 --> 0:23:53.880
<v Speaker 1>right now, so this feels like a likely game coming

0:23:53.920 --> 0:23:57.360
<v Speaker 1>up here against Los Angeles. Likely started two games last year.

0:23:58.400 --> 0:24:01.800
<v Speaker 1>One of them he had thirteen targets at one hundred yards.

0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:04.400
<v Speaker 1>The other one he scored a touchdown. Likely will face

0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:06.920
<v Speaker 1>off against the Chargers team that's allowed the third most

0:24:06.920 --> 0:24:09.879
<v Speaker 1>tight end receptions, the second most tight end yards, and

0:24:09.920 --> 0:24:12.199
<v Speaker 1>they've allowed at least sixty yards to the position in

0:24:12.320 --> 0:24:13.440
<v Speaker 1>five straight games.

0:24:13.840 --> 0:24:16.639
<v Speaker 4>So I like Isac spot a lot in this one.

0:24:17.400 --> 0:24:19.720
<v Speaker 1>Let's go back to the matchups, and that begins with

0:24:20.040 --> 0:24:24.720
<v Speaker 1>this dud New England taking on the Giants. Scott on

0:24:24.800 --> 0:24:27.720
<v Speaker 1>the New England side. Oh, they're being all secretive about

0:24:27.760 --> 0:24:30.080
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback. We don't want to tell you who it

0:24:30.160 --> 0:24:32.639
<v Speaker 1>is so that they can't game plan. It doesn't matter,

0:24:33.119 --> 0:24:34.080
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter.

0:24:34.640 --> 0:24:37.479
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna make this real easy. I'm benching the passing

0:24:37.480 --> 0:24:41.760
<v Speaker 5>game for the New England Patriots, except for Pop Douglas,

0:24:41.880 --> 0:24:43.480
<v Speaker 5>who I gave it to take a chance on me.

0:24:43.560 --> 0:24:47.439
<v Speaker 5>Player the running game. I'm only starting Romandre Stevenson. It's

0:24:47.440 --> 0:24:50.359
<v Speaker 5>a B grade. The Giants are allowing a whopping four

0:24:50.400 --> 0:24:53.280
<v Speaker 5>point six yards per carry, good for fourth war worst

0:24:53.640 --> 0:24:56.720
<v Speaker 5>which is allowing, which has led to them allowing the

0:24:56.760 --> 0:25:00.359
<v Speaker 5>second most yards and the fourth most rushing touchdowns. After

0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:03.240
<v Speaker 5>a slower start. Over the last five Stevenson has taken

0:25:03.280 --> 0:25:06.320
<v Speaker 5>a hold of the backfield, averaging fifteen point six touches,

0:25:06.359 --> 0:25:09.480
<v Speaker 5>four of those being receptions, and eighty seven yards. He's

0:25:09.520 --> 0:25:13.280
<v Speaker 5>firmly in volume C territory, but given the matchup, he'll

0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:16.399
<v Speaker 5>get the B. In eleven games, a rusher has topped

0:25:16.440 --> 0:25:20.320
<v Speaker 5>one hundred yards nine times. You don't say how many,

0:25:20.560 --> 0:25:25.080
<v Speaker 5>nine times, nine times, nine times over. On the other side,

0:25:25.200 --> 0:25:27.879
<v Speaker 5>the entire New York Giants passing game is on the bench.

0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:33.040
<v Speaker 5>I know Tommy DeVito had three touchdowns last week, somehow

0:25:33.080 --> 0:25:34.960
<v Speaker 5>two of went to Barkley. Though that's the guy you

0:25:35.840 --> 0:25:37.960
<v Speaker 5>want to start. By the way, it's not a good

0:25:37.960 --> 0:25:41.920
<v Speaker 5>matchup anyway for opposing passers against New England. Sequon Barkley

0:25:42.040 --> 0:25:45.520
<v Speaker 5>is getting an A grade here. Weirdly, even with DeVito's

0:25:45.560 --> 0:25:48.440
<v Speaker 5>big day, it was Barkley scoring points through the air

0:25:48.560 --> 0:25:50.800
<v Speaker 5>and on the ground over one hundred yards in four

0:25:50.800 --> 0:25:53.199
<v Speaker 5>of the last five cut at least three passes in

0:25:53.320 --> 0:25:55.879
<v Speaker 5>all but one Pats are kind of middle of the

0:25:55.920 --> 0:25:58.520
<v Speaker 5>pack against the run, but similar volume backs have done

0:25:58.560 --> 0:26:01.800
<v Speaker 5>well and five of the six last five of six

0:26:02.240 --> 0:26:05.359
<v Speaker 5>lead backs, five backs of last six weeks, whatever the

0:26:05.440 --> 0:26:07.639
<v Speaker 5>lead backs have scored against the Patriots.

0:26:07.840 --> 0:26:10.840
<v Speaker 1>Steelers taking on the Bengals, Brian, I like, how tidy

0:26:10.880 --> 0:26:12.880
<v Speaker 1>that one was not a lot to talk about there,

0:26:13.040 --> 0:26:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Steelers taking on the Bengals. Brian, you already told us

0:26:15.280 --> 0:26:17.879
<v Speaker 1>you like Pat Fryer mooth. So does that mean you

0:26:17.960 --> 0:26:20.119
<v Speaker 1>like Kenny Pickett as a starter in this game?

0:26:20.359 --> 0:26:21.320
<v Speaker 4>No, he's on the bench.

0:26:21.400 --> 0:26:23.479
<v Speaker 6>Let's talk about the running backs a little more. And

0:26:23.480 --> 0:26:26.359
<v Speaker 6>by the way, another divisional matchup here at another first

0:26:26.440 --> 0:26:28.760
<v Speaker 6>meeting of the season for the Steelers and Bengals. So

0:26:29.240 --> 0:26:31.640
<v Speaker 6>we will talk some recent recent history. But first let's

0:26:31.640 --> 0:26:35.080
<v Speaker 6>talk about Jalen Warren. Easy B for Warren, borderline A.

0:26:35.600 --> 0:26:38.879
<v Speaker 6>Here's where Warren ranks among running backs with fifty plus

0:26:38.880 --> 0:26:42.520
<v Speaker 6>carries per Pro Football Focus, which is a lot, not

0:26:42.560 --> 0:26:44.200
<v Speaker 6>a lot of carries, but a lot of running backs,

0:26:44.200 --> 0:26:45.440
<v Speaker 6>but Warren more than a lot.

0:26:45.480 --> 0:26:46.640
<v Speaker 4>One fifty plus carries.

0:26:46.720 --> 0:26:50.320
<v Speaker 6>He's first in yards per rush six point two first

0:26:50.400 --> 0:26:54.040
<v Speaker 6>and ten plus yards ten plus yard runs per rush

0:26:54.400 --> 0:26:57.960
<v Speaker 6>first and miss tackles forced per rush first, in yards

0:26:58.000 --> 0:27:02.199
<v Speaker 6>after contact per rush all first for Jalen Warren in

0:27:02.200 --> 0:27:06.000
<v Speaker 6>those metrics insane again. The Bengals are allowing nearly one

0:27:06.080 --> 0:27:08.400
<v Speaker 6>hundred and twenty convo yards and a touchdown per game

0:27:08.440 --> 0:27:11.080
<v Speaker 6>to opposing running backs. To a B for Warren, there

0:27:11.080 --> 0:27:12.520
<v Speaker 6>will be some meat on the bone. Like I said

0:27:12.560 --> 0:27:14.560
<v Speaker 6>for Naji Harris, so he used might take a chance

0:27:14.560 --> 0:27:17.920
<v Speaker 6>with me. Running back over to the passing game, Pat

0:27:17.960 --> 0:27:20.159
<v Speaker 6>fairemouth was might take a chance with me receiver. I

0:27:20.160 --> 0:27:22.800
<v Speaker 6>do have a C grade also on wide receivers George

0:27:22.800 --> 0:27:26.000
<v Speaker 6>Pickens and Deontay Johnson. Without doing any research, I can

0:27:26.040 --> 0:27:29.400
<v Speaker 6>tell you Deontay Johnson did not score against the Bengals

0:27:29.440 --> 0:27:31.720
<v Speaker 6>last year or anyone else for those who for good,

0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:34.400
<v Speaker 6>he had zero touchdowns. Pickens did have four catches eighty

0:27:34.400 --> 0:27:37.280
<v Speaker 6>three yards and a touchdown in the most recent meeting.

0:27:37.480 --> 0:27:38.640
<v Speaker 4>But I like them both the same.

0:27:38.720 --> 0:27:41.480
<v Speaker 6>Here the Bengals are allowing more than one hundred and

0:27:41.480 --> 0:27:44.119
<v Speaker 6>seventy yards per game to wide receivers, and they've surrendered

0:27:44.440 --> 0:27:47.159
<v Speaker 6>four scores to the position over their last three games.

0:27:47.440 --> 0:27:51.960
<v Speaker 6>And Bengals cornerback cam Taylor Britz should miss this game. Actually,

0:27:52.040 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 6>has been ruled out with the quad injury, so a

0:27:54.320 --> 0:27:58.200
<v Speaker 6>safety for Pickens and Deontay Johnson, but again Pickett is

0:27:58.240 --> 0:28:01.919
<v Speaker 6>on the bench. Over to the bengalside, of course, missing

0:28:02.320 --> 0:28:04.720
<v Speaker 6>Joe Burrow, but we will start with Joe Mixon just

0:28:04.760 --> 0:28:07.360
<v Speaker 6>to see for him. Mixon has only scored in two

0:28:07.440 --> 0:28:10.399
<v Speaker 6>of ten career games against the Steelers wow, most recent

0:28:10.440 --> 0:28:13.720
<v Speaker 6>game coming in twenty twenty one. But Pittsburgh is allowing

0:28:13.720 --> 0:28:15.720
<v Speaker 6>one hundred and thirty five conbo yards per game to

0:28:15.720 --> 0:28:19.240
<v Speaker 6>opposing running backs and Mixon virtually has no competition for

0:28:19.320 --> 0:28:21.719
<v Speaker 6>touches out of the backfield. So this is a volume

0:28:21.760 --> 0:28:24.280
<v Speaker 6>based play with Jake Browning at quarterback, but just to

0:28:24.320 --> 0:28:27.480
<v Speaker 6>see for Mixan Mixon, and just to see sadly for

0:28:27.560 --> 0:28:30.760
<v Speaker 6>Jamar Chase. The Steelers have surrendered big numbers to wide

0:28:30.760 --> 0:28:33.680
<v Speaker 6>receivers this year one hundred and eighty five yards and

0:28:33.800 --> 0:28:36.720
<v Speaker 6>a touchdown per game. But again, Jake Browning is now

0:28:36.720 --> 0:28:38.760
<v Speaker 6>the quarterback for the Bengals, so just a see for

0:28:38.920 --> 0:28:39.720
<v Speaker 6>Chase T.

0:28:39.880 --> 0:28:40.200
<v Speaker 4>Higgins.

0:28:40.240 --> 0:28:42.560
<v Speaker 6>I'm likely to play with the hamstring. He's on the

0:28:42.560 --> 0:28:45.280
<v Speaker 6>bench either way, even if he does suit up. Tyler

0:28:45.320 --> 0:28:46.160
<v Speaker 6>Boyd on the bench.

0:29:00.000 --> 0:29:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul Chargie and Scott

0:29:02.720 --> 0:29:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Fish and Brian Johnson with you. If you missed a

0:29:05.640 --> 0:29:07.760
<v Speaker 1>new part of the show and you want all of

0:29:07.840 --> 0:29:13.120
<v Speaker 1>my player rankings, they're available for free keyteen leagues dot com.

0:29:13.720 --> 0:29:15.640
<v Speaker 6>What about your pie rankings? Where do you have pumpkin?

0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:17.600
<v Speaker 6>I'm just kidding. Don't get me going on pumping.

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:18.040
<v Speaker 4>I'm not.

0:29:19.560 --> 0:29:24.760
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs at Raiders. Next up, Patrick Mahomes Travis Kelsey. Usually

0:29:24.800 --> 0:29:27.160
<v Speaker 1>I just go wilder obvious as well. Them played like

0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:30.360
<v Speaker 1>it lately, right, so let's dive in a little bit.

0:29:30.920 --> 0:29:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Both of them have slumped for three games, and Las

0:29:33.280 --> 0:29:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Vegas is not the slump buster that you might think.

0:29:37.360 --> 0:29:40.600
<v Speaker 1>The Las Vegas secondary rank sixteenth by Pro Football Focus.

0:29:40.640 --> 0:29:43.800
<v Speaker 1>That's not bad. Max Crosby's fantastic. Now, the Chiefs to

0:29:43.880 --> 0:29:47.880
<v Speaker 1>have the league's top rated run sorry pass block win rates,

0:29:47.960 --> 0:29:50.360
<v Speaker 1>so you know, Max Crosby might be neutralized to some

0:29:50.440 --> 0:29:53.880
<v Speaker 1>degree here, but he's terrific. Cornerbacks Marcus Peters and Nate

0:29:53.880 --> 0:29:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Hobbs for Las Vegas both rank and the top third

0:29:56.760 --> 0:30:00.160
<v Speaker 1>amongst starting cornerbacks in coverage by Pro Football Focus. The

0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Raiders have been solid against tight ends this year, although

0:30:03.160 --> 0:30:05.120
<v Speaker 1>they did a lot of big games recently to Tyler

0:30:05.160 --> 0:30:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Conklin and Sam Laporta. But it's still Patrick Mahomes and

0:30:08.840 --> 0:30:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Travis Kelsey against the Raiders, and I can't give myself

0:30:12.200 --> 0:30:15.360
<v Speaker 1>to not give them a grades. Even though that offense

0:30:15.440 --> 0:30:18.480
<v Speaker 1>doesn't look right, that defense is kind of carrying the team.

0:30:18.560 --> 0:30:21.840
<v Speaker 5>Which is honestly scary. Once it starts to look right, man, then.

0:30:21.840 --> 0:30:24.280
<v Speaker 4>What because the defense has been really good.

0:30:24.600 --> 0:30:26.960
<v Speaker 1>It's jerious sneer gonna talk about in a minute, Holy cow,

0:30:27.280 --> 0:30:30.200
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about Isaiah Pacheco. Man, did I love the

0:30:30.240 --> 0:30:33.120
<v Speaker 1>way he ran a Monday night oh so hard against

0:30:33.160 --> 0:30:36.840
<v Speaker 1>a great Eagles to run defense. Compared to the Eagles,

0:30:36.840 --> 0:30:39.960
<v Speaker 1>this game is gonna feel very easy for Pacheco. Raiders

0:30:40.000 --> 0:30:43.240
<v Speaker 1>allow one hundred and forty six total yards per game

0:30:43.280 --> 0:30:45.600
<v Speaker 1>to opposing running backs. That is the second most in

0:30:45.640 --> 0:30:47.560
<v Speaker 1>the league, and the Raiders allow four and a half

0:30:47.640 --> 0:30:49.120
<v Speaker 1>yards per carry to opposing.

0:30:48.840 --> 0:30:50.080
<v Speaker 4>Running backs, six the most.

0:30:50.960 --> 0:30:53.040
<v Speaker 1>The only reason I can't give Pacheco in a grade

0:30:53.080 --> 0:30:55.920
<v Speaker 1>here his receiving is completely dried up. We loved that

0:30:56.000 --> 0:30:57.600
<v Speaker 1>earlier in the year, were like, hey, we didn't think

0:30:57.600 --> 0:30:59.280
<v Speaker 1>we're going to any receptions out of pa Checko and

0:30:59.320 --> 0:31:02.680
<v Speaker 1>there they were not lately over the past three games.

0:31:02.880 --> 0:31:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Pachecko has past three games, Pacheco has one receiving yard.

0:31:10.400 --> 0:31:10.880
<v Speaker 4>That's it.

0:31:11.360 --> 0:31:15.680
<v Speaker 1>So I can only go B grade and Isaiah Pajack McKinnon.

0:31:16.760 --> 0:31:19.719
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that will give him a couple of receptions. If

0:31:19.760 --> 0:31:21.160
<v Speaker 1>you think that's the case, move him to an A

0:31:21.240 --> 0:31:23.920
<v Speaker 1>grade at your own discretion. We can't do anything with

0:31:23.960 --> 0:31:27.040
<v Speaker 1>these wide receivers. I lament this many weeks, and it's

0:31:27.080 --> 0:31:30.479
<v Speaker 1>an old story that you already know. Really had hoped

0:31:30.760 --> 0:31:34.560
<v Speaker 1>that Rashid Rice at this stage, middle of his rookie year,

0:31:34.600 --> 0:31:39.560
<v Speaker 1>would start taking command. Not happening, So there's really no receiver.

0:31:39.640 --> 0:31:40.959
<v Speaker 4>You can know all the metrics.

0:31:42.040 --> 0:31:42.320
<v Speaker 3>I know.

0:31:42.440 --> 0:31:45.840
<v Speaker 5>It's it's like the Kyle Pitts of wide receivers.

0:31:45.400 --> 0:31:48.800
<v Speaker 4>Except he's good. Let's go to Las Vegas side.

0:31:49.520 --> 0:31:52.760
<v Speaker 1>Josh Jacobs averaging a whopping twenty two rushes in the

0:31:52.840 --> 0:31:56.400
<v Speaker 1>last three games under Antonio Pierce, which you love, but

0:31:56.440 --> 0:32:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Pierce has also dried up Jacob's targets. He had been

0:32:00.360 --> 0:32:04.440
<v Speaker 1>averaging four catches for thirty yards per game under Josh McDaniels.

0:32:04.840 --> 0:32:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Now it's like free. That's a free seven Fantasy points

0:32:07.680 --> 0:32:10.240
<v Speaker 1>right there out of your running back. But under Pierce

0:32:10.680 --> 0:32:14.440
<v Speaker 1>he's averaging one catch for seven yards. That's wow, one

0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:17.960
<v Speaker 1>point seven fantasy points. The Chiefs pass defense is becoming

0:32:18.120 --> 0:32:21.200
<v Speaker 1>smothering and the path of least resistance is on the ground,

0:32:21.280 --> 0:32:22.680
<v Speaker 1>So I think we're gonna get a lot of running

0:32:22.680 --> 0:32:25.400
<v Speaker 1>from Jacob's. Four straight opponents have had a runner top

0:32:25.480 --> 0:32:28.400
<v Speaker 1>seventy six yards against the Chiefs, and three of those

0:32:28.440 --> 0:32:30.880
<v Speaker 1>four have scored touchdowns. We've got a B grade on

0:32:30.960 --> 0:32:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Jacobs again, can't go A because he's not catching the ball,

0:32:34.120 --> 0:32:36.240
<v Speaker 1>but we'll go with the B grade on Josh Jacobs.

0:32:36.280 --> 0:32:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Here in the passing game, there's only two guys you

0:32:39.560 --> 0:32:43.560
<v Speaker 1>care about, and they're both really almost long shot starts.

0:32:43.560 --> 0:32:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Here DeVante Adams thirteen targets in back to back games,

0:32:47.200 --> 0:32:49.400
<v Speaker 1>which you love, eighty or more yards in both of

0:32:49.400 --> 0:32:52.400
<v Speaker 1>those and a score. Kansas City secondary surrendered the sixth

0:32:52.600 --> 0:32:56.440
<v Speaker 1>fewest receptions and the seventh fewest yards opposing receivers. But

0:32:56.480 --> 0:32:59.760
<v Speaker 1>here's where it gets really Harry Adam's going to get

0:32:59.760 --> 0:33:03.280
<v Speaker 1>a law look at Lagarius Snead and he might be

0:33:03.960 --> 0:33:08.280
<v Speaker 1>the best cornerback in the league right now. It's unbelievable

0:33:08.520 --> 0:33:11.280
<v Speaker 1>he has yet to allow a touchdown. He gives up

0:33:11.280 --> 0:33:14.440
<v Speaker 1>a fifty two passer rating in his coverage. He just

0:33:14.520 --> 0:33:18.360
<v Speaker 1>shut down AJ Brown on Monday, holding AJ Brown to

0:33:18.440 --> 0:33:21.560
<v Speaker 1>one catch for eight yards. In fact, over the last

0:33:21.600 --> 0:33:26.320
<v Speaker 1>five games, he's averaging in his coverage one catch for

0:33:26.400 --> 0:33:31.200
<v Speaker 1>twelve yards. It's unbelievable that a starting cornerback can do that.

0:33:31.880 --> 0:33:33.840
<v Speaker 1>I can only get you to a B grade on Adams,

0:33:33.880 --> 0:33:35.440
<v Speaker 1>and really it should be a C grade, but I'm

0:33:35.440 --> 0:33:39.320
<v Speaker 1>giving him a B just on volume. Jacoby Myers won't

0:33:39.360 --> 0:33:43.320
<v Speaker 1>see Lagarius Snead, but Antonio Pierce is just killing him.

0:33:43.560 --> 0:33:46.400
<v Speaker 1>All those runs for Myers, all those targets for Adams

0:33:46.440 --> 0:33:50.000
<v Speaker 1>have come at the expense of Jacoby Myers since Pierce

0:33:50.000 --> 0:33:53.920
<v Speaker 1>took over Meyers averaging two catches for thirty two yps.

0:33:54.840 --> 0:33:57.920
<v Speaker 1>But because he won't see Lagerius Snead and instead he's

0:33:57.920 --> 0:34:01.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna see cornerback Jalen Watson, He's given up five touchdowns

0:34:01.560 --> 0:34:03.320
<v Speaker 1>in his coverage along with a pass rating one hundred

0:34:03.320 --> 0:34:04.760
<v Speaker 1>and twenty three. So I still have a C grade

0:34:04.960 --> 0:34:07.640
<v Speaker 1>on Jacoby Myers. And there's no other Raiders that you

0:34:07.640 --> 0:34:08.680
<v Speaker 1>would consider starting.

0:34:10.840 --> 0:34:12.239
<v Speaker 4>I've got a league. I want to ask you guys

0:34:12.239 --> 0:34:14.200
<v Speaker 4>about Okay, Brian's in this league.

0:34:15.200 --> 0:34:18.040
<v Speaker 1>This is an Empire league, and for those that don't know,

0:34:18.080 --> 0:34:21.439
<v Speaker 1>it's a dynasty league where half of the money gets

0:34:21.480 --> 0:34:23.360
<v Speaker 1>paid out every year and half of it's in a

0:34:23.480 --> 0:34:26.440
<v Speaker 1>rolling pot waiting for some team to win back to

0:34:26.480 --> 0:34:29.120
<v Speaker 1>back years and then they get the rolling pot and

0:34:29.160 --> 0:34:29.960
<v Speaker 1>the league dissolves.

0:34:30.160 --> 0:34:31.680
<v Speaker 4>Don't tell him how much money is in the pot

0:34:31.719 --> 0:34:33.000
<v Speaker 4>in case the irs.

0:34:32.760 --> 0:34:35.120
<v Speaker 1>No kidding, because it's been going for I think like

0:34:35.200 --> 0:34:37.960
<v Speaker 1>eleven years now or something. I don't know, something like that,

0:34:38.480 --> 0:34:41.879
<v Speaker 1>So it's been going a long time. I am well

0:34:42.440 --> 0:34:44.600
<v Speaker 1>who I am? Is my role in this is not important.

0:34:44.719 --> 0:34:46.840
<v Speaker 1>You've got a team in this league, Scott, that is

0:34:46.880 --> 0:34:47.799
<v Speaker 1>not a very good team.

0:34:47.960 --> 0:34:48.120
<v Speaker 5>Yep.

0:34:48.239 --> 0:34:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Two weeks ago, owner in this team started a bye

0:34:51.719 --> 0:34:55.720
<v Speaker 1>week player no no, not cool no, and then last

0:34:55.760 --> 0:35:02.080
<v Speaker 1>week started instead of benched Joe Mixon for Jeff Wilson.

0:35:02.880 --> 0:35:04.440
<v Speaker 4>In just the clear of the air, it's not me,

0:35:04.560 --> 0:35:06.040
<v Speaker 4>I'm not that. You're not that guy.

0:35:06.160 --> 0:35:09.640
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So what is the appropriate spot response for a

0:35:09.640 --> 0:35:10.399
<v Speaker 1>commissioner here?

0:35:10.719 --> 0:35:13.160
<v Speaker 5>I feel like if it's if it's reported in time

0:35:13.200 --> 0:35:16.200
<v Speaker 5>to do so, you you fix the lineup. I believe

0:35:16.280 --> 0:35:20.280
<v Speaker 5>leagues need to have valid starting lineups unless otherwise stated.

0:35:20.360 --> 0:35:23.840
<v Speaker 5>I have run leagues and had leagues that tanking is

0:35:23.920 --> 0:35:26.640
<v Speaker 5>one hundred percent allowed. We're like, tank if you want to.

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:31.200
<v Speaker 5>It's understood if everybody knows going in. But like we've been,

0:35:31.239 --> 0:35:35.040
<v Speaker 5>we've both been playing for over thirty years. Setting valid

0:35:35.080 --> 0:35:38.440
<v Speaker 5>lineups and not tanking, not intentionally tanking, has been a

0:35:38.480 --> 0:35:41.320
<v Speaker 5>rule forever. It's the one of the most known unwritten

0:35:41.400 --> 0:35:43.080
<v Speaker 5>rules in fantasy football.

0:35:42.880 --> 0:35:45.239
<v Speaker 1>Correct and in this case, we've got a lot of

0:35:45.320 --> 0:35:48.480
<v Speaker 1>money degine that. The integrity of wins and loss is

0:35:48.480 --> 0:35:49.200
<v Speaker 1>a very big deal.

0:35:49.360 --> 0:35:51.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm trying to lose. You're giving wins to somebody who.

0:35:51.520 --> 0:35:54.239
<v Speaker 5>Are giving free win. I get the tanking to help

0:35:54.239 --> 0:35:56.879
<v Speaker 5>your team, and that's why I have leagues where you're

0:35:56.880 --> 0:36:01.879
<v Speaker 5>allowed to tank. But if it's not stated, you can't

0:36:01.920 --> 0:36:02.560
<v Speaker 5>be allowing that.

0:36:02.920 --> 0:36:05.200
<v Speaker 4>No, I don't. So what do you do in retrospec?

0:36:05.440 --> 0:36:09.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's that's Hopefully it's reported in time that the

0:36:09.280 --> 0:36:11.640
<v Speaker 5>commissioner can fix it. In leagues that I have that

0:36:11.719 --> 0:36:15.200
<v Speaker 5>don't allow tanking, if it's reported before that Thursday morning

0:36:15.280 --> 0:36:16.839
<v Speaker 5>stack correction, we're able to fix it.

0:36:16.760 --> 0:36:19.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, But what about it's one thing if a

0:36:19.080 --> 0:36:21.440
<v Speaker 1>player is just on buy right, you put a bye

0:36:21.440 --> 0:36:24.560
<v Speaker 1>week player in, that's pretty easy. What about benching Joe

0:36:24.600 --> 0:36:25.880
<v Speaker 1>Mixon for Jeff Wilson.

0:36:26.200 --> 0:36:29.960
<v Speaker 5>Yes, so my rules have bye week injured or obviously

0:36:30.080 --> 0:36:33.239
<v Speaker 5>inferior players right in my by laws. I don't know

0:36:33.280 --> 0:36:36.080
<v Speaker 5>your by laws for that league, but yeah, we we

0:36:36.200 --> 0:36:38.640
<v Speaker 5>generally fix a lot of those. One way, it doesn't

0:36:38.640 --> 0:36:41.040
<v Speaker 5>happen too often because I vet my owners really well.

0:36:41.040 --> 0:36:43.840
<v Speaker 5>But you got you get, you get a person like that. Sometimes.

0:36:43.920 --> 0:36:46.600
<v Speaker 6>One way to mitigate this in this league, in any league,

0:36:46.600 --> 0:36:50.120
<v Speaker 6>whether it's Empire Dynasty, redraft, is you have the last

0:36:50.160 --> 0:36:53.520
<v Speaker 6>place penalty, whether it's you go to Pie Hop and

0:36:54.520 --> 0:36:58.279
<v Speaker 6>Death by Waffles or or waffle House whatever, or it's

0:36:58.280 --> 0:37:02.239
<v Speaker 6>a monetary penalty for coming in last place, like you

0:37:02.360 --> 0:37:05.720
<v Speaker 6>gotta pay the first place team's entry fee or something

0:37:05.760 --> 0:37:06.000
<v Speaker 6>like that.

0:37:06.000 --> 0:37:08.120
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, but.

0:37:07.760 --> 0:37:10.359
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that helps. I have a lot of leagues that

0:37:10.680 --> 0:37:13.920
<v Speaker 5>do uh draft order by potential points instead of your

0:37:13.920 --> 0:37:16.680
<v Speaker 5>starting lineup points or your win loss, and that way,

0:37:16.719 --> 0:37:18.880
<v Speaker 5>when someone benches the stud it does nothing for their

0:37:18.960 --> 0:37:19.680
<v Speaker 5>draft orders.

0:37:19.480 --> 0:37:22.200
<v Speaker 4>So they don't really interesting. It has really interesting.

0:37:22.400 --> 0:37:27.560
<v Speaker 5>That's that's what one company does, and it is completely

0:37:27.600 --> 0:37:31.080
<v Speaker 5>removed tanking from the situation. Nobody tanks because it doesn't matter.

0:37:30.920 --> 0:37:33.160
<v Speaker 4>All right. That's I had never heard that suggestion. That's

0:37:33.200 --> 0:37:34.560
<v Speaker 4>a really good one. I will say.

0:37:34.680 --> 0:37:36.920
<v Speaker 6>I am playing this team this week and he's been

0:37:36.960 --> 0:37:39.160
<v Speaker 6>a big boy and he has a big boy lineup.

0:37:39.200 --> 0:37:41.279
<v Speaker 6>Good for you. You know who you are out there

0:37:41.280 --> 0:37:43.400
<v Speaker 6>if you're listening, Oh boy, but there's a there's a

0:37:43.400 --> 0:37:44.200
<v Speaker 6>compliant lineup.

0:37:44.360 --> 0:37:47.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad to hear that that's the case. What do

0:37:47.600 --> 0:37:49.360
<v Speaker 1>you do We're roll into this week and we've already

0:37:49.360 --> 0:37:51.719
<v Speaker 1>had four games played. What do you do if you're

0:37:51.800 --> 0:37:53.920
<v Speaker 1>way up like you you know, if you're way up

0:37:53.920 --> 0:37:56.760
<v Speaker 1>because you started you know, Dak Presscott or you started

0:37:57.160 --> 0:37:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Christian mccaff or you started Jordan Love. Or what if

0:37:59.800 --> 0:38:03.160
<v Speaker 1>you're way down because you started Zach Charbonay or Brian

0:38:03.239 --> 0:38:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Robinson or A. J. Dillond, DK metcalf for TJ. Lockett

0:38:05.800 --> 0:38:08.799
<v Speaker 1>or Gino Smith? What do you do if when either

0:38:08.800 --> 0:38:11.480
<v Speaker 1>of those scenarios as you head into this weekend's play?

0:38:11.920 --> 0:38:13.880
<v Speaker 5>I feel like we talk about this every year that

0:38:14.080 --> 0:38:16.239
<v Speaker 5>we do right at this very at this very day.

0:38:16.320 --> 0:38:17.240
<v Speaker 4>Every year we talked.

0:38:17.040 --> 0:38:19.560
<v Speaker 5>About Yeah, every year it's you go for the higher

0:38:19.600 --> 0:38:22.560
<v Speaker 5>upside plays even though even though the floor isn't there,

0:38:22.600 --> 0:38:24.600
<v Speaker 5>you switch it up and go for the guys you think.

0:38:24.640 --> 0:38:27.400
<v Speaker 5>They never up or down if you're down. Okay, I

0:38:27.440 --> 0:38:29.400
<v Speaker 5>think it's that you know, it's just the reverse for

0:38:29.440 --> 0:38:31.319
<v Speaker 5>both of them. You play it safe. If you're up,

0:38:31.360 --> 0:38:34.399
<v Speaker 5>you do you do the best upside play if you're down.

0:38:34.440 --> 0:38:37.040
<v Speaker 5>But mostly I think people don't have a lot of

0:38:37.040 --> 0:38:39.440
<v Speaker 5>those bench options. You just play your best players regardless

0:38:39.480 --> 0:38:40.080
<v Speaker 5>most of the time.

0:38:40.200 --> 0:38:40.799
<v Speaker 4>Most of the time.

0:38:40.960 --> 0:38:42.640
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, if you're down big, you got to try and

0:38:42.680 --> 0:38:45.720
<v Speaker 6>stack players from the same team, Yes, you can, or

0:38:45.800 --> 0:38:48.480
<v Speaker 6>you remove correlation from your opponents. Say I have the

0:38:48.560 --> 0:38:52.279
<v Speaker 6>quarterback and you're beating me. Charging you've got their number

0:38:52.320 --> 0:38:54.719
<v Speaker 6>one wide receiver. I gotta go another quarterback because I'm

0:38:54.760 --> 0:38:56.120
<v Speaker 6>not I'm not going to catch it.

0:38:56.200 --> 0:38:59.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, vice versa. If you're ahead, you look for that Cortlage.

0:39:01.040 --> 0:39:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Uh is Geno Smith going to finish the year? Will

0:39:04.239 --> 0:39:06.960
<v Speaker 1>he play out all of the games as Seattle starting quarterback?

0:39:09.400 --> 0:39:11.360
<v Speaker 6>I think if healthy and they're still in the playoff

0:39:11.400 --> 0:39:13.400
<v Speaker 6>on I think I think one of the other. Yeah,

0:39:13.440 --> 0:39:15.759
<v Speaker 6>but they fall out of the playoff hunt, which would

0:39:15.800 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 6>be hard in the NFC, even though I think if

0:39:20.160 --> 0:39:23.040
<v Speaker 6>they do, then they maybe give Locke a look. But

0:39:23.400 --> 0:39:25.080
<v Speaker 6>I'm gonna I'm gonna say yes for now.

0:39:26.280 --> 0:39:27.399
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna I'm gonna say yes.

0:39:27.640 --> 0:39:29.960
<v Speaker 1>It's tricky, isn't it. Yeah, I mean, right now if

0:39:30.000 --> 0:39:33.279
<v Speaker 1>with Geno Smith it does not look particularly good at

0:39:33.320 --> 0:39:35.279
<v Speaker 1>the moment, I don't think. No, I don't think I

0:39:35.320 --> 0:39:37.320
<v Speaker 1>don't think so either. There's a there's a lot of

0:39:37.400 --> 0:39:39.960
<v Speaker 1>questions around that that let's go to Jake brown how.

0:39:39.880 --> 0:39:41.839
<v Speaker 5>About they catch from and jig By the other day?

0:39:42.320 --> 0:39:45.719
<v Speaker 4>Oh, yeah, that was fantastic. He's one hand.

0:39:45.920 --> 0:39:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the little shades of Odell Beckham, don't you think?

0:39:49.080 --> 0:39:49.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:39:49.560 --> 0:39:50.279
<v Speaker 4>I thought so too.

0:39:50.840 --> 0:39:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Jake Browning's effect on this Bengals offense looks like it's

0:39:53.680 --> 0:39:56.600
<v Speaker 1>going to be potentially severe. What are your feelings on

0:39:56.680 --> 0:39:58.239
<v Speaker 1>Bengals going forward?

0:39:58.800 --> 0:40:00.360
<v Speaker 4>And you know you're probably were going to.

0:40:00.360 --> 0:40:03.520
<v Speaker 5>Start ja March, but everybody else is the one you

0:40:03.640 --> 0:40:07.279
<v Speaker 5>trust and for mix in for for everybody else in

0:40:07.320 --> 0:40:10.040
<v Speaker 5>that offense. I think the best thing you can possibly

0:40:10.080 --> 0:40:13.239
<v Speaker 5>do is tune into Fantasy Football weekly every week to

0:40:13.320 --> 0:40:16.360
<v Speaker 5>get our grades on those players. Like that idea, I

0:40:16.360 --> 0:40:17.640
<v Speaker 5>think that's the best you can do.

0:40:18.760 --> 0:40:22.479
<v Speaker 1>Browning's got a little mobility to him, the passing looks

0:40:22.520 --> 0:40:26.120
<v Speaker 1>pretty suspect. So I'm I know, I'm pretty I'm pretty

0:40:26.120 --> 0:40:28.600
<v Speaker 1>nervous about the rest of that group, and even Chase,

0:40:28.600 --> 0:40:30.680
<v Speaker 1>I think is going to have some dud games get

0:40:30.719 --> 0:40:33.080
<v Speaker 1>mixed in that are going to frustrate a lot of owners.

0:40:33.160 --> 0:40:34.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I got a question for you, since we're just

0:40:35.000 --> 0:40:36.960
<v Speaker 5>randomly asking questions at the end of the.

0:40:37.000 --> 0:40:41.080
<v Speaker 4>Segment, Who's this isn't even three tough questions kind of who's.

0:40:40.880 --> 0:40:45.120
<v Speaker 5>The rookie wide receiver you want most next year? Jane Reid, Pukka,

0:40:45.320 --> 0:40:49.120
<v Speaker 5>Tank Dell, There's Jordan Addison, Tank Del Is it Tanked Dell?

0:40:49.239 --> 0:40:49.759
<v Speaker 4>Quarterback?

0:40:50.000 --> 0:40:50.440
<v Speaker 5>Okay?

0:40:50.560 --> 0:40:50.759
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:40:50.840 --> 0:40:53.320
<v Speaker 5>Right, Yeah, I mean you think he'll be the highest

0:40:53.400 --> 0:40:56.759
<v Speaker 5>ranked rookie in Dynasty, you know, for Dynasty leagues next year?

0:40:56.800 --> 0:40:58.960
<v Speaker 4>For yeah, I do, Okay, I do.

0:41:00.360 --> 0:41:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Has a chance to be awesome. Like you know, if

0:41:04.239 --> 0:41:07.719
<v Speaker 1>we roll the clock ahead one or two years, he

0:41:07.880 --> 0:41:14.080
<v Speaker 1>might be the best quarterback. That's right, It's possible. By

0:41:14.120 --> 0:41:16.279
<v Speaker 1>the way, c J. Stroud, this is an embtting show.

0:41:16.560 --> 0:41:17.160
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, c J.

0:41:17.239 --> 0:41:19.760
<v Speaker 1>Stroud to an MVP rookie the year has already done.

0:41:19.640 --> 0:41:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Yea MVP plus eighteen hundred eighteen to one. Yep, and

0:41:24.000 --> 0:41:27.960
<v Speaker 1>who's in his way? I mean, sure, Jalen Hurts, his

0:41:28.000 --> 0:41:30.040
<v Speaker 1>team is nine and one, but Hurts hasn't played that

0:41:30.120 --> 0:41:35.280
<v Speaker 1>well honestly, and or Patrick Mahomes, he hasn't played that well.

0:41:35.800 --> 0:41:37.520
<v Speaker 4>The AFC is like it's up for grabs.

0:41:37.600 --> 0:41:40.799
<v Speaker 1>Houston's one game out of first place with a tie

0:41:40.800 --> 0:41:42.000
<v Speaker 1>breaker one.

0:41:42.040 --> 0:41:43.680
<v Speaker 4>You know, they're one win out of first place in

0:41:43.719 --> 0:41:44.280
<v Speaker 4>the AFC.

0:41:44.640 --> 0:41:47.399
<v Speaker 1>So to win MVP, you've got to be a really

0:41:47.400 --> 0:41:51.320
<v Speaker 1>good quarterback on a highly seeded team that could.

0:41:51.080 --> 0:41:54.680
<v Speaker 5>Be stroud it absolutely, I like it eighteen to one.

0:41:54.760 --> 0:41:56.800
<v Speaker 1>I like it now where if you are an illegal,

0:41:56.920 --> 0:41:59.040
<v Speaker 1>you're in an area where you can bet legally. That

0:41:59.160 --> 0:42:01.040
<v Speaker 1>is something you could you could give some thought to

0:42:01.080 --> 0:42:04.520
<v Speaker 1>if you wanted to as a possibility. All right, so

0:42:04.719 --> 0:42:06.520
<v Speaker 1>let me get you with a couple other time killers

0:42:06.600 --> 0:42:09.799
<v Speaker 1>year before three. Well, I know I know this get

0:42:09.880 --> 0:42:12.440
<v Speaker 1>three tough. I know it is incredible've I don't think

0:42:12.440 --> 0:42:14.600
<v Speaker 1>we've ever had ever had a segment with so much

0:42:14.640 --> 0:42:15.880
<v Speaker 1>free available timing.

0:42:16.239 --> 0:42:19.160
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, we only did one one matchup in this segment.

0:42:19.200 --> 0:42:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I know we never have a one matchup segment, but

0:42:21.040 --> 0:42:23.160
<v Speaker 1>that's just how it worked. I blame the Patriots and

0:42:23.200 --> 0:42:25.120
<v Speaker 1>the Giants by the way for that. Yeah, and then

0:42:25.120 --> 0:42:27.200
<v Speaker 1>well we'll roll right back into the matchups in just

0:42:27.239 --> 0:42:30.120
<v Speaker 1>a few minutes. Uh, But let's talk Browns for for

0:42:30.400 --> 0:42:34.120
<v Speaker 1>just just a splash for a second here on Browns. Yeah,

0:42:34.800 --> 0:42:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Jerome Ford is a power, you know, as a lead

0:42:37.880 --> 0:42:40.239
<v Speaker 1>back on a team that now almost has to run

0:42:40.280 --> 0:42:40.640
<v Speaker 1>the ball.

0:42:41.760 --> 0:42:43.880
<v Speaker 4>It could be a sneaky league winner, could be.

0:42:44.080 --> 0:42:46.480
<v Speaker 5>He could be And people don't see him that way.

0:42:46.320 --> 0:42:48.480
<v Speaker 1>At all, not at all, But I think there's a

0:42:48.520 --> 0:42:50.399
<v Speaker 1>chance Jerome Ford one of those guys where you look

0:42:50.440 --> 0:42:53.200
<v Speaker 1>back and go, yeah, he powered me through into and

0:42:53.239 --> 0:42:54.040
<v Speaker 1>through the playoffs.

0:42:54.080 --> 0:42:56.600
<v Speaker 6>Well, they're going to run and play defense in Cleveland.

0:42:56.719 --> 0:42:57.680
<v Speaker 6>That's that's the game plan.

0:42:57.880 --> 0:43:00.640
<v Speaker 4>That's about all they can no shaker there, That's about it,

0:43:00.960 --> 0:43:01.279
<v Speaker 4>all right.

0:43:01.320 --> 0:43:04.719
<v Speaker 1>When we come back, three tough questions, you'll want to

0:43:04.719 --> 0:43:06.560
<v Speaker 1>see if you can go three and zero against our

0:43:06.640 --> 0:43:10.480
<v Speaker 1>co hosts, Scott and Brian. Also later on in the show,

0:43:10.800 --> 0:43:15.000
<v Speaker 1>a segment we love premature speculation. Guys, you can pick

0:43:15.080 --> 0:43:16.880
<v Speaker 1>up now that the rest is can be trying to

0:43:16.960 --> 0:43:20.600
<v Speaker 1>pick up. But they'll already be on your team when

0:43:20.600 --> 0:43:27.319
<v Speaker 1>we come back for our number two Fantasy Football Weekly

0:43:42.120 --> 0:43:45.040
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly our number two Paul Charchi

0:43:45.080 --> 0:43:47.680
<v Speaker 1>and Scott Fish and Brian Johnson. You can follow us

0:43:47.760 --> 0:43:51.080
<v Speaker 1>on the site formerly known as Twitter. I am at

0:43:51.120 --> 0:43:54.239
<v Speaker 1>Paul Charchian, Scott Fish is at Scott Fish twenty four

0:43:54.440 --> 0:43:56.320
<v Speaker 1>and Brian is at b t x J.

0:43:57.040 --> 0:43:59.160
<v Speaker 4>This is a game we call three tough questions.

0:44:00.040 --> 0:44:01.640
<v Speaker 3>Off question number one.

0:44:01.960 --> 0:44:03.160
<v Speaker 4>For the rest of the season.

0:44:03.280 --> 0:44:07.359
<v Speaker 1>Baltimore tight end Isaiah Likely will most commonly get what

0:44:07.600 --> 0:44:14.480
<v Speaker 1>letter grade on this show, A B, C or bench.

0:44:14.600 --> 0:44:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Now you already know he got to B grade for

0:44:16.400 --> 0:44:18.080
<v Speaker 1>me earlier in the show.

0:44:18.080 --> 0:44:18.960
<v Speaker 4>Do we do that one yet?

0:44:19.719 --> 0:44:19.879
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:44:20.280 --> 0:44:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he might take a chance. When we played all

0:44:22.200 --> 0:44:23.279
<v Speaker 1>we didn't break it down yet.

0:44:23.440 --> 0:44:25.080
<v Speaker 5>Oh we didn't break down the beach.

0:44:24.840 --> 0:44:26.320
<v Speaker 4>All right. So let's be in with Scott.

0:44:26.160 --> 0:44:28.719
<v Speaker 5>Fish all right. So I think it's going to be

0:44:28.719 --> 0:44:31.000
<v Speaker 5>between A being a C for most of the matchups.

0:44:31.000 --> 0:44:36.480
<v Speaker 5>Here I put C though. My thoughts here are the

0:44:36.560 --> 0:44:39.680
<v Speaker 5>Ravens went heavy to Beckham after Andrews left. That's where

0:44:39.719 --> 0:44:42.280
<v Speaker 5>the ball started going. Once Andrews is down. They didn't

0:44:42.320 --> 0:44:45.359
<v Speaker 5>immediately shove Likely into that role. And you talked about

0:44:45.360 --> 0:44:47.880
<v Speaker 5>the two games last year. One of them there is

0:44:48.120 --> 0:44:50.640
<v Speaker 5>one catch one touchdown, that's all was. The other one

0:44:51.120 --> 0:44:55.480
<v Speaker 5>was a Week seventeen game where Anthony Brown started. They're

0:44:55.520 --> 0:44:57.960
<v Speaker 5>two top wide receivers and their top tight end. We're

0:44:58.000 --> 0:45:02.080
<v Speaker 5>out and the Kane Corpse of Kenyan Drake was in

0:45:02.120 --> 0:45:04.400
<v Speaker 5>it running back. Because all their running backs were injured,

0:45:04.640 --> 0:45:08.520
<v Speaker 5>they had to go to Isaiah likely thirteen times. I

0:45:08.520 --> 0:45:11.040
<v Speaker 5>do like that they went to him, but I'm not

0:45:11.120 --> 0:45:14.720
<v Speaker 5>as confident as if those two were two normal games

0:45:14.760 --> 0:45:18.000
<v Speaker 5>in the middle of the season with Lamar Jackson. I

0:45:18.440 --> 0:45:20.960
<v Speaker 5>feel like there's there's something to be said for the

0:45:20.960 --> 0:45:22.799
<v Speaker 5>fact that they went to Beckham so much right after

0:45:22.880 --> 0:45:24.920
<v Speaker 5>he went out. So I'm gonna go C grade. He's

0:45:24.960 --> 0:45:26.839
<v Speaker 5>gonna get some bes though. There are some matchups, all.

0:45:26.840 --> 0:45:27.400
<v Speaker 4>Right, Brian.

0:45:28.200 --> 0:45:30.839
<v Speaker 1>Rest of the season, Baltimore tight end Isaiah likely will

0:45:30.880 --> 0:45:33.279
<v Speaker 1>most commonly get what letter grade from this show.

0:45:34.160 --> 0:45:36.399
<v Speaker 6>Definitely no worse than the Sea. We wouldn't be giving

0:45:36.440 --> 0:45:39.160
<v Speaker 6>Mark Andrews a see in any matchup if you were healthy,

0:45:39.200 --> 0:45:41.759
<v Speaker 6>and we know Andrews is gonna miss most of the

0:45:41.800 --> 0:45:44.200
<v Speaker 6>regular season, at least through Week seventeen. Yeah, this is

0:45:44.200 --> 0:45:48.719
<v Speaker 6>what we started presuming, and Fantasy just wanted to hammer

0:45:48.760 --> 0:45:51.840
<v Speaker 6>that home. But so likely will be the starting tight end.

0:45:51.920 --> 0:45:54.719
<v Speaker 6>But you know what, they have other tight ends in Baltimore.

0:45:55.040 --> 0:45:58.000
<v Speaker 6>Charlie Kohler, I believe is one. I say it likely

0:45:58.120 --> 0:46:00.399
<v Speaker 6>might be needed to play wide receiver and he can

0:46:00.440 --> 0:46:04.480
<v Speaker 6>do that. Obj is banged up, Zay Flowers banged up,

0:46:04.520 --> 0:46:06.640
<v Speaker 6>even though he's looking likely to play on Monday Night.

0:46:06.800 --> 0:46:11.040
<v Speaker 6>Rashad Bateman just not very good. So there's some shootout

0:46:11.040 --> 0:46:13.760
<v Speaker 6>potential on the horizons starting this week at the Chargers.

0:46:14.320 --> 0:46:16.600
<v Speaker 6>The forty nine ers on the docket, that is actually

0:46:16.719 --> 0:46:20.400
<v Speaker 6>someone of the favorable matchup for opposing pass attacks. So

0:46:20.400 --> 0:46:22.280
<v Speaker 6>I got to be on the majority of the games

0:46:22.360 --> 0:46:24.040
<v Speaker 6>remaining for Isaiah Likely.

0:46:23.880 --> 0:46:26.760
<v Speaker 1>Five games left, including this weekend, only one difficult matchup

0:46:26.800 --> 0:46:29.920
<v Speaker 1>San Francisco on the schedule. The other four are somewhere

0:46:29.920 --> 0:46:32.400
<v Speaker 1>between neutral and easy. And I've already gave you a

0:46:32.440 --> 0:46:34.640
<v Speaker 1>bunch of key points about Isaiah Likely earlier in the

0:46:34.640 --> 0:46:36.960
<v Speaker 1>show during take a chance on Me now if you

0:46:37.000 --> 0:46:39.680
<v Speaker 1>don't know, Isaiah Likely is not a blocker. He is

0:46:39.719 --> 0:46:43.200
<v Speaker 1>a pure receiving tight end and athletic enough to replace

0:46:43.280 --> 0:46:46.920
<v Speaker 1>Andrews routes. He can run those routes. Andrews to this

0:46:46.960 --> 0:46:49.799
<v Speaker 1>point has six touchdowns. All of the rest of the

0:46:49.880 --> 0:46:53.520
<v Speaker 1>receivers on the team have six touchdowns. Yeah, this is

0:46:53.560 --> 0:46:58.560
<v Speaker 1>an offense that offensive coordinator Todd Moncodon.

0:46:58.920 --> 0:46:59.839
<v Speaker 5>Oh there's their thing.

0:47:00.160 --> 0:47:01.719
<v Speaker 4>Don't ball me, thank you.

0:47:01.920 --> 0:47:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Art Monkin schemes his tight ends for scores, and I

0:47:05.440 --> 0:47:07.600
<v Speaker 1>don't think he's got to change it for Isaacah likely

0:47:08.120 --> 0:47:09.600
<v Speaker 1>most commonly B grade.

0:47:09.719 --> 0:47:12.240
<v Speaker 3>Okay, tough question number two.

0:47:12.640 --> 0:47:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Rest of season Chicago quarterback Justin Fields will most commonly

0:47:16.480 --> 0:47:17.919
<v Speaker 1>get what letter grade from this show?

0:47:18.320 --> 0:47:20.120
<v Speaker 4>We begin with Brian Johnson.

0:47:19.920 --> 0:47:23.040
<v Speaker 6>All right, looking at his last five games from a

0:47:23.040 --> 0:47:26.480
<v Speaker 6>fantasy perspective again ending in week seventeen, starting this week,

0:47:26.640 --> 0:47:28.840
<v Speaker 6>And this is just from a purely passing perspective in

0:47:28.880 --> 0:47:29.319
<v Speaker 6>my mind.

0:47:29.920 --> 0:47:33.320
<v Speaker 4>At Minnesota, I got a C. Then by then.

0:47:33.400 --> 0:47:36.680
<v Speaker 6>Home against Detroit that's a bee. At Cleveland that's a C.

0:47:36.960 --> 0:47:42.560
<v Speaker 6>Maybe bench, maybe bench Arizona be Atlanta C. But Justin

0:47:42.600 --> 0:47:43.440
<v Speaker 6>Fields doesn't.

0:47:43.239 --> 0:47:45.479
<v Speaker 4>Just rely on his arm. No, He's got legs, of course.

0:47:45.480 --> 0:47:48.920
<v Speaker 6>So I'm bumping all those grades up a notch based

0:47:48.920 --> 0:47:51.120
<v Speaker 6>on his legs. And if you do that, I got

0:47:51.160 --> 0:47:53.120
<v Speaker 6>mostly bees for Justin Fields.

0:47:53.320 --> 0:47:53.680
<v Speaker 4>Scott.

0:47:53.800 --> 0:47:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Rest of season Chicago quarterback Justin Fields will most commonly

0:47:57.320 --> 0:47:58.560
<v Speaker 1>get what letter grade on this show.

0:47:58.680 --> 0:48:01.560
<v Speaker 5>It's almost exactly word for word what I had. I

0:48:01.600 --> 0:48:03.920
<v Speaker 5>went through, but I did not split it up. I

0:48:03.960 --> 0:48:07.520
<v Speaker 5>have him with four b's and one see the Browns,

0:48:07.560 --> 0:48:09.759
<v Speaker 5>one being really the only tough spot where I don't

0:48:09.800 --> 0:48:13.120
<v Speaker 5>feel I can, you know, confidently start justin fields.

0:48:13.239 --> 0:48:15.239
<v Speaker 1>Four of the five remaining games are against teams that

0:48:15.280 --> 0:48:19.440
<v Speaker 1>are in the bottom half of quarterback rushing yards allowed,

0:48:20.120 --> 0:48:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and only Cleveland looks like the stopper. Even then because

0:48:23.040 --> 0:48:25.080
<v Speaker 1>of the rushing he said couldn't get a C grade

0:48:25.120 --> 0:48:27.480
<v Speaker 1>in that game coming into it. He might finish, might

0:48:27.520 --> 0:48:30.960
<v Speaker 1>finish better than that offensive coordinator Luke Getzi. God bless him,

0:48:30.960 --> 0:48:33.439
<v Speaker 1>and I haven't said that often this year. I love

0:48:33.480 --> 0:48:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the fact that last week, the first game off of

0:48:35.920 --> 0:48:39.120
<v Speaker 1>him missing you know, a month of service, they ran

0:48:39.200 --> 0:48:41.279
<v Speaker 1>him fourteen times right off the bat too.

0:48:41.480 --> 0:48:44.000
<v Speaker 5>By the way, I think the three games, if you

0:48:44.000 --> 0:48:45.960
<v Speaker 5>don't count the Minnesota game where he got injured, I

0:48:45.960 --> 0:48:47.759
<v Speaker 5>believe that his last three games he's had like thirty

0:48:47.800 --> 0:48:48.640
<v Speaker 5>Fantasy points each.

0:48:49.280 --> 0:48:51.880
<v Speaker 1>I think that's probably just last three play's average sixty

0:48:51.960 --> 0:48:54.759
<v Speaker 1>five rushing yards in his last since Week four, I

0:48:54.800 --> 0:48:57.560
<v Speaker 1>think that is three games he's been a top ten

0:48:57.800 --> 0:49:00.799
<v Speaker 1>quarterback in every full game he's played since Week four,

0:49:01.560 --> 0:49:03.640
<v Speaker 1>already B grade this week. I think he's going to

0:49:03.680 --> 0:49:06.480
<v Speaker 1>finish with A grades against Detroit and Arizona, C grade

0:49:06.480 --> 0:49:09.480
<v Speaker 1>against Cleveland, and a B grade against Atlanta. You mix

0:49:09.560 --> 0:49:12.680
<v Speaker 1>all that together, it's almost an A, but it's almost

0:49:12.719 --> 0:49:14.600
<v Speaker 1>an It's going to be a B grade as the

0:49:14.600 --> 0:49:17.320
<v Speaker 1>most common grade for justin fields.

0:49:17.840 --> 0:49:19.600
<v Speaker 3>Tough question number three.

0:49:19.760 --> 0:49:23.760
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's fast forward to Tuesday. Should I sabotage

0:49:23.880 --> 0:49:27.799
<v Speaker 1>drop Garrett Wilson? He ended up with a garbage time

0:49:27.880 --> 0:49:32.080
<v Speaker 1>touchdown in the end of Friday's game, obviously, well, and

0:49:32.120 --> 0:49:34.760
<v Speaker 1>again we clarified last week you weren't here for this, Scott.

0:49:34.760 --> 0:49:37.279
<v Speaker 1>We clarified exactly what constitutes the seminotage drop.

0:49:37.400 --> 0:49:38.319
<v Speaker 4>You know all about it.

0:49:38.320 --> 0:49:40.480
<v Speaker 1>It's got to be somebody good enough that your opponents

0:49:40.480 --> 0:49:43.240
<v Speaker 1>will pick them up, start them, and they'll hurt your.

0:49:43.080 --> 0:49:45.839
<v Speaker 5>Opponent and also waste.

0:49:45.360 --> 0:49:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and hopefully waste bab money or roster positioning or whatever.

0:49:49.160 --> 0:49:52.840
<v Speaker 4>So yes, So fast forward to Tuesday. Should I sabotage

0:49:52.880 --> 0:49:53.880
<v Speaker 4>drop Garrett Wilson?

0:49:54.000 --> 0:49:59.000
<v Speaker 5>Scott, I am going to lean no, and I'm not

0:49:59.040 --> 0:50:01.680
<v Speaker 5>even that strong on it, but he's seen twenty five

0:50:01.719 --> 0:50:04.919
<v Speaker 5>to thirty percent of Tim Boyle's targets in the game

0:50:05.000 --> 0:50:08.680
<v Speaker 5>in a quarter or whatever. He had ten targets in

0:50:08.680 --> 0:50:10.920
<v Speaker 5>that Friday game as well. The garbage time touched on

0:50:10.960 --> 0:50:13.440
<v Speaker 5>the yard is is going to be low, but it's

0:50:13.480 --> 0:50:16.480
<v Speaker 5>a lot of usage. And my thought process is you're

0:50:16.560 --> 0:50:20.680
<v Speaker 5>probably replacing someone's wide receiver three or four in their lineup,

0:50:20.880 --> 0:50:23.440
<v Speaker 5>and Garrett Wilson, what he's going to do going ford

0:50:23.560 --> 0:50:26.920
<v Speaker 5>is probably actually helping, you know, a little bit better

0:50:26.960 --> 0:50:29.880
<v Speaker 5>than what that person probably has on their team. So

0:50:30.520 --> 0:50:32.759
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna go with no. But I get it. I

0:50:32.840 --> 0:50:33.279
<v Speaker 5>get it.

0:50:33.320 --> 0:50:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Brian, fast forward to Tuesday. Should I sabotage drop Garrett Wilson?

0:50:39.360 --> 0:50:42.480
<v Speaker 6>Initially I was going to say no too, because all season,

0:50:42.600 --> 0:50:44.640
<v Speaker 6>from the moment Aaron Rodgers went down which was the

0:50:44.640 --> 0:50:49.480
<v Speaker 6>first drive of the season for the Jets, Garrett Wilson

0:50:49.520 --> 0:50:53.480
<v Speaker 6>has managed essentially put up wide receiver two numbers before

0:50:53.600 --> 0:50:54.120
<v Speaker 6>last week.

0:50:54.200 --> 0:50:56.800
<v Speaker 4>That's not the Black Friday game. He total dud last week.

0:50:56.960 --> 0:50:58.920
<v Speaker 6>As we mentioned, he had the garbage time touchdown on

0:50:59.440 --> 0:51:02.359
<v Speaker 6>the black the Black Friday game against the Dolphins. They

0:51:02.360 --> 0:51:04.359
<v Speaker 6>have the Dolphins again in Week fifteen, but looking at

0:51:04.360 --> 0:51:08.200
<v Speaker 6>the two games before that, versus Atlanta versus Houston. Those

0:51:08.239 --> 0:51:10.359
<v Speaker 6>are bad matchups where I might give Wilson to see

0:51:10.360 --> 0:51:13.560
<v Speaker 6>if Aaron Rodgers was healthy. Then they get Miami again,

0:51:13.680 --> 0:51:15.640
<v Speaker 6>where you only at the twenty nine yards in the

0:51:15.640 --> 0:51:18.359
<v Speaker 6>garbage time touchdown. You can't bank on that again. Then

0:51:18.520 --> 0:51:22.440
<v Speaker 6>Washington week sixteen, the only good matchup Week seventeen at Cleveland.

0:51:22.520 --> 0:51:26.120
<v Speaker 6>You're not touching that. That's a Thursday night game. Two gross,

0:51:26.320 --> 0:51:30.000
<v Speaker 6>So sabotage drop him. Listen to y'all, y'all, Okay, it's

0:51:30.040 --> 0:51:30.759
<v Speaker 6>a sabotage.

0:51:30.760 --> 0:51:32.279
<v Speaker 1>So we're at a point in the season where I

0:51:32.360 --> 0:51:37.239
<v Speaker 1>think we can start talking about the playoffs and ask

0:51:37.320 --> 0:51:42.160
<v Speaker 1>yourself this, can I win my league starting a Jets

0:51:42.160 --> 0:51:44.080
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver three straight times?

0:51:46.280 --> 0:51:46.400
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

0:51:46.480 --> 0:51:47.600
<v Speaker 4>Huh, No, no way.

0:51:48.120 --> 0:51:51.520
<v Speaker 1>And that's why we're gonna sabotage drop Okay, Garrett Wilson,

0:51:51.840 --> 0:51:53.440
<v Speaker 1>unless you want to roll the dice. Maybe on like

0:51:53.520 --> 0:51:55.640
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers coming back, you know, way earlier.

0:51:55.719 --> 0:52:00.440
<v Speaker 5>So Tannehill gain released and something like that have to be.

0:52:00.360 --> 0:52:03.000
<v Speaker 4>A change of quarterback, which it's not. I don't think

0:52:03.000 --> 0:52:03.520
<v Speaker 4>it's coming.

0:52:04.640 --> 0:52:07.239
<v Speaker 1>It seems very unlikely anyway, And as Brian mentioned, I

0:52:07.280 --> 0:52:09.520
<v Speaker 1>had to this my notes too. The Washington start is

0:52:09.560 --> 0:52:11.160
<v Speaker 1>the only one where you feel like I can put

0:52:11.200 --> 0:52:13.320
<v Speaker 1>him in my lineup and feel good about Garrett Wilson.

0:52:13.640 --> 0:52:14.480
<v Speaker 4>All the rest are bad.

0:52:14.520 --> 0:52:16.160
<v Speaker 1>And then the week seventeen, and I'd like to believe

0:52:16.160 --> 0:52:19.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm playing in Week seventeen. Total stopper for Garrett Wilson.

0:52:19.840 --> 0:52:22.279
<v Speaker 4>Let's sabotage, drop him and see what happens. And again,

0:52:22.320 --> 0:52:23.880
<v Speaker 4>don't do it just to do it. It has to

0:52:23.920 --> 0:52:24.520
<v Speaker 4>benefit you.

0:52:24.680 --> 0:52:26.960
<v Speaker 6>Maybe you improve your waiver position, or you're gonna knock

0:52:26.960 --> 0:52:28.560
<v Speaker 6>out the fab leader in the league or anything.

0:52:28.680 --> 0:52:30.239
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna hurt mine. It's gonna hurt the guy that

0:52:30.280 --> 0:52:32.920
<v Speaker 1>my opponent that picks him up. That's how it benefits me.

0:52:33.000 --> 0:52:38.280
<v Speaker 1>I think Bucks taking on the Colts Scott Baker Mayfield

0:52:38.360 --> 0:52:40.719
<v Speaker 1>something we've talked about many times in this show because

0:52:40.719 --> 0:52:42.839
<v Speaker 1>he keeps popping up with these positive matchups, and we're

0:52:42.840 --> 0:52:44.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna take a chance on me Staple.

0:52:44.840 --> 0:52:47.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, we're not even allowed to. You choose them chance.

0:52:48.000 --> 0:52:48.840
<v Speaker 4>We're done with Baker.

0:52:49.239 --> 0:52:50.920
<v Speaker 5>We're done, We're done.

0:52:51.120 --> 0:52:52.319
<v Speaker 4>What do you think about him this week?

0:52:52.360 --> 0:52:55.040
<v Speaker 5>It's another okay spot. I got a secret on him.

0:52:55.120 --> 0:52:57.240
<v Speaker 5>Four of the last five QBS to face the Colts

0:52:57.239 --> 0:53:00.319
<v Speaker 5>were hauled under one hundred and eighty five yards. The

0:53:00.400 --> 0:53:03.800
<v Speaker 5>last five quarterbacks combined for five touchdowns and eight pecks.

0:53:03.960 --> 0:53:07.320
<v Speaker 5>It hasn't been stellar, but Baker's getting two undred thirty

0:53:07.320 --> 0:53:09.719
<v Speaker 5>to two hundred and eighty yards one to two touchdowns.

0:53:09.719 --> 0:53:14.399
<v Speaker 5>Those quarterbacks that face the Colts, I would say at

0:53:14.480 --> 0:53:17.080
<v Speaker 5>Baker's level or worse. And the Colts have given up

0:53:17.120 --> 0:53:21.520
<v Speaker 5>the eighth most touchdowns. Yeah, I got a C grade, don't.

0:53:21.560 --> 0:53:23.440
<v Speaker 5>I don't love it, but I'm gonna guess you might

0:53:23.480 --> 0:53:27.080
<v Speaker 5>have a better matchup with nobody on buy so I

0:53:27.080 --> 0:53:29.439
<v Speaker 5>can see Benjamin Mike Evans. I got a B grade

0:53:29.480 --> 0:53:34.000
<v Speaker 5>on he's still seeing forty percent of the team's episode targets,

0:53:34.200 --> 0:53:37.960
<v Speaker 5>which is he's scored in seven different games, scored in

0:53:38.040 --> 0:53:41.640
<v Speaker 5>four of the last five. Lead receivers against the Colts

0:53:41.960 --> 0:53:44.960
<v Speaker 5>are averaging seven for ninety eight yards on ten targets.

0:53:45.000 --> 0:53:46.680
<v Speaker 5>I can see Mike Evans doing that. I got a

0:53:46.719 --> 0:53:50.880
<v Speaker 5>B grade there, C grade on Chris Godwin. He scored

0:53:51.160 --> 0:53:54.759
<v Speaker 5>just once this year because Mike Evans's gayed all that.

0:53:55.160 --> 0:53:58.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah yeah, and hasn't topped sixty yards in a month,

0:53:59.400 --> 0:54:01.839
<v Speaker 5>but he's still getting six plus targets. He's getting four

0:54:01.840 --> 0:54:05.399
<v Speaker 5>plus catches in almost every single game, and that four

0:54:05.440 --> 0:54:08.080
<v Speaker 5>to six catches forties to seventy yards with no scores.

0:54:08.360 --> 0:54:12.120
<v Speaker 5>That's like that Sea level. Yeah. Yeah, you're getting barely

0:54:12.160 --> 0:54:15.440
<v Speaker 5>over double digit points from him bench grade on Kaitot

0:54:15.600 --> 0:54:18.839
<v Speaker 5>and he's seen better matchups and despite playing ninety five

0:54:18.880 --> 0:54:21.799
<v Speaker 5>percent of the time, he's averaging like three to thirty

0:54:21.840 --> 0:54:25.120
<v Speaker 5>and you need to enough. Yeah, Rashad White B grade there.

0:54:25.200 --> 0:54:27.919
<v Speaker 5>I love the usage recently, especially in the past game.

0:54:28.320 --> 0:54:31.120
<v Speaker 5>Over the last five weeks, White has turned into a

0:54:31.160 --> 0:54:35.360
<v Speaker 5>bell cow, averaging nineteen touches, five of them being receptions.

0:54:35.520 --> 0:54:39.359
<v Speaker 5>Five receptions a game, like you had thirty yards, you're

0:54:39.360 --> 0:54:42.759
<v Speaker 5>getting like eight eight points minimum, nine points minimum through

0:54:42.800 --> 0:54:45.719
<v Speaker 5>the pass game. He's also scored four times the last

0:54:45.760 --> 0:54:50.319
<v Speaker 5>three weeks. He converted four his four of his five

0:54:50.360 --> 0:54:54.560
<v Speaker 5>attempts inside the five. I know Charch loves that. The Colts'

0:54:54.600 --> 0:54:57.920
<v Speaker 5>eighth easiest matchup for opposing runners. We just watched Zeke

0:54:57.960 --> 0:55:00.440
<v Speaker 5>and Ramandre Stevenson go for one hundred ninety total on

0:55:00.520 --> 0:55:03.600
<v Speaker 5>this team last in the last matchup over to the

0:55:03.680 --> 0:55:05.960
<v Speaker 5>other side. Gardner Minshew was my take a chance on

0:55:06.040 --> 0:55:08.040
<v Speaker 5>me player and a big part of that is because

0:55:08.080 --> 0:55:10.680
<v Speaker 5>he's got his wood Bee Josh downs coming back, right.

0:55:11.080 --> 0:55:13.720
<v Speaker 5>I have a B grade on Josh downs. No team

0:55:13.840 --> 0:55:16.560
<v Speaker 5>allows more fantasy points to the slot than the Bucks.

0:55:16.600 --> 0:55:19.440
<v Speaker 5>In fact, they allow twice as many fantasy points to

0:55:19.480 --> 0:55:21.719
<v Speaker 5>the slot as they do to the perimeter. The only

0:55:21.760 --> 0:55:24.279
<v Speaker 5>other team in that category is the Steelers, which they don't.

0:55:24.320 --> 0:55:26.800
<v Speaker 5>They're not really playing a great slot guy this week anyway.

0:55:27.719 --> 0:55:30.239
<v Speaker 5>Last two weeks were not good, not good slot mach

0:55:30.800 --> 0:55:34.440
<v Speaker 5>slot matchups. But this one is the two previous that

0:55:34.560 --> 0:55:36.440
<v Speaker 5>he had where there was a good slot matchup. He

0:55:36.600 --> 0:55:38.239
<v Speaker 5>went seven for seventy two and then he had one

0:55:38.280 --> 0:55:41.719
<v Speaker 5>hundred plus yard in a score day. Bucks allowed the

0:55:41.800 --> 0:55:45.359
<v Speaker 5>second most touchdowns to the slot. Just they're bad all

0:55:45.440 --> 0:55:49.080
<v Speaker 5>round against the slot. Alec Pierce cardio boy running ninety

0:55:49.120 --> 0:55:51.320
<v Speaker 5>percent of the route, seeing ten percent of the targets.

0:55:51.360 --> 0:55:57.800
<v Speaker 5>Is on the bench, Jonathan cardio Boy. Jonathan Taylor B grade.

0:55:57.920 --> 0:56:02.720
<v Speaker 5>Moss dropped from fifteen touch to eight to one touch.

0:56:03.960 --> 0:56:06.600
<v Speaker 4>You know, Moss have played pretty pretty well this season.

0:56:06.800 --> 0:56:10.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah yeah, but since getting that full work well workload

0:56:10.080 --> 0:56:12.280
<v Speaker 5>from Jonathan Taylor over the last three weeks, he's averaging

0:56:12.320 --> 0:56:15.239
<v Speaker 5>over twenty touches ninety yards, scoring three of those four

0:56:15.880 --> 0:56:19.480
<v Speaker 5>Tampa Bay. It's a good defense against backs. It's mostly

0:56:19.480 --> 0:56:22.520
<v Speaker 5>because they don't run. Teams do not run a lot

0:56:22.560 --> 0:56:27.400
<v Speaker 5>on them. It's fourth hardest, but only four backs have

0:56:27.480 --> 0:56:30.680
<v Speaker 5>had more than fifteen touches against the Bucks. Those backs

0:56:30.719 --> 0:56:33.239
<v Speaker 5>averaged about one hundred and ten yards. So I have

0:56:33.239 --> 0:56:34.720
<v Speaker 5>a B grade on Jonathan Taylor.

0:56:35.040 --> 0:56:38.440
<v Speaker 1>All right, when we come back, Panthers take on the Titans.

0:56:38.440 --> 0:56:40.880
<v Speaker 1>We'll see if there's any Panther other than Adam Thielen

0:56:40.960 --> 0:56:46.000
<v Speaker 1>that you dare try in this matchup. Bryan's tempted to

0:56:46.040 --> 0:56:48.120
<v Speaker 1>answer that, Now, don't you got to make people wait

0:56:48.160 --> 0:56:49.520
<v Speaker 1>for an exciting.

0:56:49.040 --> 0:56:52.200
<v Speaker 5>Pants just drop all the Panthers except for Adam at

0:56:52.200 --> 0:56:52.560
<v Speaker 5>this point.

0:56:52.680 --> 0:56:55.280
<v Speaker 4>Might be the case. We'll find out when we come back.

0:56:55.440 --> 0:57:35.040
<v Speaker 1>More Fantasy Football Weekly, Stay tuned, Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly.

0:57:35.080 --> 0:57:37.160
<v Speaker 4>A big block oh matchups for you.

0:57:37.960 --> 0:57:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Beginning with Panthers Titans. Doesn't feel like there's a lot

0:57:41.000 --> 0:57:44.880
<v Speaker 1>of meat on this bone. But Adam Thelon's been really good,

0:57:45.240 --> 0:57:46.360
<v Speaker 1>so I mean there's.

0:57:46.200 --> 0:57:47.120
<v Speaker 4>That, right.

0:57:47.680 --> 0:57:51.080
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, if there was a vegan matchup, this would probably

0:57:51.120 --> 0:57:54.520
<v Speaker 6>be it. So yeah, Adam Feeling will start with him,

0:57:54.560 --> 0:57:57.000
<v Speaker 6>he gets a be with head coach Frank Reich, back

0:57:57.000 --> 0:57:59.560
<v Speaker 6>to calling plays, feeling his money in the bank again.

0:57:59.680 --> 0:58:02.880
<v Speaker 6>He's double digit targets and back to back games and

0:58:02.920 --> 0:58:06.000
<v Speaker 6>in five of his last six. The Titans are allowing

0:58:06.040 --> 0:58:08.440
<v Speaker 6>fifteen catches, one hundred and eighty two yards and one

0:58:08.480 --> 0:58:11.760
<v Speaker 6>touchdown per game to wide receivers. And honestly, that whole

0:58:11.760 --> 0:58:14.240
<v Speaker 6>line could go to Adam Thielen in this game. It's

0:58:14.280 --> 0:58:16.280
<v Speaker 6>not going to Jonathan Mingo, who's on the bench. Through

0:58:16.360 --> 0:58:18.800
<v Speaker 6>nine games, Mingo has totaled twenty four catches for two

0:58:18.880 --> 0:58:21.880
<v Speaker 6>hundred and twenty six scoreless yards. We're talking about the

0:58:21.880 --> 0:58:25.760
<v Speaker 6>fifth wide receiver taken the thirty ninth overall pick. Wow,

0:58:25.920 --> 0:58:28.160
<v Speaker 6>I mean Tank Dell who can Like the list goes

0:58:28.200 --> 0:58:30.840
<v Speaker 6>on and on it. Carolina Brick to this draft bad.

0:58:31.160 --> 0:58:34.000
<v Speaker 6>So that speaks to Bryce Young. He is on the

0:58:34.000 --> 0:58:37.120
<v Speaker 6>bench tight end, Tommy Tremble on the bench, and Miles

0:58:37.160 --> 0:58:39.959
<v Speaker 6>Sanders and Miles Sanders and Cuba Hubbard on the bench

0:58:39.960 --> 0:58:42.200
<v Speaker 6>as well. Just when looked like Hubbard was going to

0:58:42.200 --> 0:58:44.640
<v Speaker 6>take over a full time role, he and Sanders both

0:58:44.680 --> 0:58:47.200
<v Speaker 6>touched the ball twelve times last week and played an

0:58:47.240 --> 0:58:49.960
<v Speaker 6>almost equal number of snaps twenty nine to twenty seven.

0:58:50.400 --> 0:58:53.800
<v Speaker 6>Tennessee's one stout run defense has somewhat eroded. But you

0:58:53.840 --> 0:58:57.240
<v Speaker 6>can't trust Hubbard or Sanders against anyone at this point.

0:58:57.400 --> 0:59:00.800
<v Speaker 1>I thought Sanders ran as well oh last week as

0:59:00.840 --> 0:59:01.720
<v Speaker 1>I've seen him all year.

0:59:02.160 --> 0:59:04.600
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, you look, you look good. But it's still not

0:59:04.640 --> 0:59:05.760
<v Speaker 6>a great matchup on paper.

0:59:06.320 --> 0:59:08.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm not advocating starting him. I'm just noting I thought

0:59:08.880 --> 0:59:10.400
<v Speaker 1>he looked. He looked kind of spry.

0:59:10.360 --> 0:59:13.560
<v Speaker 6>And worth mentioning the Panthers if anyone is still contemplating

0:59:13.560 --> 0:59:17.040
<v Speaker 6>starting either of these backs lost starting right guard Austin

0:59:17.080 --> 0:59:21.200
<v Speaker 6>Corbett to ir so bad all around for Carolina over

0:59:21.200 --> 0:59:28.840
<v Speaker 6>to the Titan side. A great fantasy fantasy bonzie for

0:59:29.040 --> 0:59:32.720
<v Speaker 6>Derrick Henry. This should be a vintage King Henry game,

0:59:33.200 --> 0:59:34.280
<v Speaker 6>and sadly it might.

0:59:34.120 --> 0:59:35.560
<v Speaker 4>Be his last of his career.

0:59:35.800 --> 0:59:38.840
<v Speaker 6>But this is a smash spot for Henry, who faces

0:59:38.840 --> 0:59:42.000
<v Speaker 6>the Panthers defense allowing one hundred and fifteen rushing yards

0:59:42.000 --> 0:59:43.240
<v Speaker 6>per game to running backs.

0:59:43.440 --> 0:59:44.600
<v Speaker 4>That's on the ground alone.

0:59:44.600 --> 0:59:47.800
<v Speaker 6>That is the fifth most opposing backs also averaging nearly

0:59:47.840 --> 0:59:51.520
<v Speaker 6>five catches per game against Carolina, who have surrendered sixteen

0:59:51.600 --> 0:59:54.480
<v Speaker 6>total touchdowns to the running back position that is the

0:59:54.600 --> 0:59:57.240
<v Speaker 6>most and that is why TYJ. Spears was your take

0:59:57.280 --> 0:59:59.080
<v Speaker 6>a chance on me running back charts. He will certainly

0:59:59.080 --> 1:00:00.200
<v Speaker 6>have a role in this game.

1:00:00.120 --> 1:00:01.000
<v Speaker 4>Hmmm as well.

1:00:01.400 --> 1:00:03.160
<v Speaker 6>And the last Titan that I will give a starting

1:00:03.160 --> 1:00:05.920
<v Speaker 6>grade to is DeAndre Hopkins. But just to see, Hopkins

1:00:05.960 --> 1:00:08.520
<v Speaker 6>has seen a twenty six percent target share with Will

1:00:08.600 --> 1:00:11.600
<v Speaker 6>Levis as his quarterback. That is good, but Levis is not.

1:00:12.160 --> 1:00:14.520
<v Speaker 6>And this is also not a great matchup. Teams just

1:00:14.600 --> 1:00:16.200
<v Speaker 6>do not throw on Carolina.

1:00:16.360 --> 1:00:18.080
<v Speaker 4>I don't have to. Carolina has yielded the.

1:00:18.080 --> 1:00:20.840
<v Speaker 6>Third fewest targets to wide receivers who are averaging im

1:00:20.920 --> 1:00:24.000
<v Speaker 6>easily eleven catches and one hundred and thirty yards per

1:00:24.040 --> 1:00:27.360
<v Speaker 6>game as a whole against Carolina. And that's why Chris Moore,

1:00:27.440 --> 1:00:29.840
<v Speaker 6>Nick Westbrook, a Kine Kylo Phillips on the bench. Treylon

1:00:29.920 --> 1:00:33.640
<v Speaker 6>Burks has been ruled out again, and then Jigoconquo, Trevon

1:00:33.800 --> 1:00:36.680
<v Speaker 6>Westco and Josh Wiley, the tight ends all played.

1:00:36.360 --> 1:00:39.720
<v Speaker 4>Exactly sixteen snaps last week. Why they're on the bench.

1:00:39.480 --> 1:00:42.880
<v Speaker 6>At because I look, I want we all wanted Jigoconquo

1:00:43.040 --> 1:00:46.160
<v Speaker 6>to be something, but he's sadly not at least this year.

1:00:46.480 --> 1:00:49.880
<v Speaker 1>Derek Henry got me chopped in two guillotine leagues last week,

1:00:49.920 --> 1:00:51.680
<v Speaker 1>and now he comes back this week with like the

1:00:51.880 --> 1:00:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Primo app Tours, He's going to rub salt in that way. Unfortunately,

1:00:56.320 --> 1:00:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Ravens taking on the Chargers. Let's talk this one through.

1:01:00.040 --> 1:01:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of guys that have been underperforming, Lamar Jackson actually

1:01:02.920 --> 1:01:07.280
<v Speaker 1>playing pretty well, but it hasn't equated to Fantasy box scores,

1:01:07.640 --> 1:01:08.680
<v Speaker 1>but it will this week.

1:01:08.960 --> 1:01:09.360
<v Speaker 4>Chargers.

1:01:09.360 --> 1:01:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Of the opponent, they allow the most passing yards and

1:01:11.920 --> 1:01:13.840
<v Speaker 1>it's not close by the way, three hundred and eleven

1:01:13.920 --> 1:01:16.479
<v Speaker 1>per game. The only quarterbacks who have failed to score

1:01:16.560 --> 1:01:21.640
<v Speaker 1>multiple touchdowns against the Chargers are backups. Jackson's got an

1:01:21.640 --> 1:01:24.400
<v Speaker 1>elite matchup all over the field, including even at the

1:01:24.440 --> 1:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>tight end right Isaiah Likely, who we like. Chargers are

1:01:26.800 --> 1:01:30.400
<v Speaker 1>decent run defense, so there's less likelihood of Gus Edwards

1:01:30.480 --> 1:01:33.640
<v Speaker 1>dominating the touchdowns like he has of lately. Chargers lost

1:01:33.720 --> 1:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Joey Bosa to a foot injury, so Jackson's gonna have

1:01:36.040 --> 1:01:37.880
<v Speaker 1>time in the pocket. There's just so much to like

1:01:37.880 --> 1:01:40.959
<v Speaker 1>about Lamar here. This is an easy a grade for him.

1:01:41.360 --> 1:01:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to the receivers. Let's sart as a Flowers,

1:01:43.840 --> 1:01:46.760
<v Speaker 1>who says he's going to play. Chargers have allowed the

1:01:46.800 --> 1:01:49.680
<v Speaker 1>fourth most yards to wide receiver, second most scores to

1:01:49.760 --> 1:01:52.680
<v Speaker 1>the position. Flowers runs from all over the field and

1:01:52.720 --> 1:01:57.280
<v Speaker 1>as a particularly primo matchup against cornerback Michael Davis, who's

1:01:57.280 --> 1:01:59.520
<v Speaker 1>allowed six scores, the second most.

1:01:59.400 --> 1:02:03.160
<v Speaker 4>Among all play. Flowers problem though, is touchdowns.

1:02:03.200 --> 1:02:05.720
<v Speaker 1>He's got one on the season, and because of his

1:02:05.800 --> 1:02:09.120
<v Speaker 1>diminutive stature, I just think he's not an end zone target.

1:02:09.360 --> 1:02:11.200
<v Speaker 5>He has had two called back annoyingly.

1:02:11.440 --> 1:02:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Ah, that is frustrating.

1:02:12.880 --> 1:02:14.880
<v Speaker 6>And if you're banking on Zay Flowers, he says he's

1:02:14.880 --> 1:02:16.720
<v Speaker 6>gonna play, but this is the Sunday night game, you

1:02:16.760 --> 1:02:18.600
<v Speaker 6>might want to grab Nelson Aguilar just.

1:02:18.520 --> 1:02:20.760
<v Speaker 4>In the event your backup. Yeah great, cough a late

1:02:20.840 --> 1:02:21.760
<v Speaker 4>scratch or something like that.

1:02:22.000 --> 1:02:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, Beckham's also a game time decision, so he's

1:02:24.240 --> 1:02:26.760
<v Speaker 1>got the shoulder injury. So another reason you could go

1:02:26.800 --> 1:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>get Nelson Aguilar, who's actually been fantasy startable in a

1:02:29.840 --> 1:02:31.640
<v Speaker 1>couple of these spots over the course of the season.

1:02:32.560 --> 1:02:35.800
<v Speaker 1>For Beckham, who's scored and or top one hundred yards

1:02:35.800 --> 1:02:37.760
<v Speaker 1>and three straight. This has been an impressive run that

1:02:37.800 --> 1:02:40.920
<v Speaker 1>he's on. But he's constantly dinged up like Flowers, he

1:02:41.000 --> 1:02:42.680
<v Speaker 1>runs on the outside, so he's got all the same

1:02:42.720 --> 1:02:45.320
<v Speaker 1>advantages that I just talked about with Zay Flowers, who,

1:02:45.360 --> 1:02:46.640
<v Speaker 1>by the way, if I didn't mention it comes out

1:02:46.640 --> 1:02:49.280
<v Speaker 1>with a B grade. I've got a C grade on Beckham.

1:02:49.280 --> 1:02:50.920
<v Speaker 1>It would have been a bee if he were fully healthy,

1:02:50.920 --> 1:02:53.160
<v Speaker 1>but only the sea because he's not. Let's go to

1:02:53.200 --> 1:02:57.160
<v Speaker 1>the running backs. Gus Edwards totally touchdown dependent, but those

1:02:57.160 --> 1:03:00.920
<v Speaker 1>scores have certainly been coming. Nine touchdowns in his last

1:03:00.960 --> 1:03:06.040
<v Speaker 1>five halfs, all coming within the ten yard line. I

1:03:06.040 --> 1:03:07.760
<v Speaker 1>can only give him a C grade here because.

1:03:07.520 --> 1:03:10.960
<v Speaker 5>The day in his last five halfs he has scored

1:03:11.080 --> 1:03:11.840
<v Speaker 5>nine times.

1:03:12.120 --> 1:03:15.840
<v Speaker 4>It's a great one. Why wouldn't I do that? What's

1:03:15.880 --> 1:03:18.320
<v Speaker 4>wrong with me? Right right there?

1:03:18.800 --> 1:03:20.720
<v Speaker 1>I can only give him a C grade because the

1:03:20.800 --> 1:03:24.280
<v Speaker 1>usage and yardage is shrinking. Keaton Mitchell's emergence is real.

1:03:24.440 --> 1:03:27.120
<v Speaker 1>He only had a thirty eight percent snap count snap

1:03:27.240 --> 1:03:29.840
<v Speaker 1>right last week for Gus Edwards, C grade for him,

1:03:30.000 --> 1:03:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and then the aforementioned Keaton Mitchell also a C grade,

1:03:33.280 --> 1:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>coming up a career high third twenty four snaps last

1:03:36.680 --> 1:03:39.520
<v Speaker 1>week still only got him to eight harries.

1:03:40.200 --> 1:03:42.120
<v Speaker 4>So but we got a figure he's trending in.

1:03:42.080 --> 1:03:44.720
<v Speaker 1>The right general direction here startable with the hopes for

1:03:44.760 --> 1:03:48.040
<v Speaker 1>a sizzling highlight play Chargers allowing the eleventh most yards

1:03:48.440 --> 1:03:50.960
<v Speaker 1>per game to opposing running backs, to the opportunities there,

1:03:50.960 --> 1:03:52.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go see grade on Keaton Mitchell.

1:03:52.720 --> 1:03:54.320
<v Speaker 4>Wow, he brings in a long one.

1:03:54.400 --> 1:03:56.959
<v Speaker 6>How big of a season would JK. Dobbins be having

1:03:57.040 --> 1:03:59.560
<v Speaker 6>right now if he had stayed hell the planet right?

1:04:00.320 --> 1:04:05.240
<v Speaker 5>Brutal we called that though? Which part of it we

1:04:05.320 --> 1:04:10.320
<v Speaker 5>called JK Dobbins? Like this other multiversal world Jack Dobbins.

1:04:10.360 --> 1:04:11.120
<v Speaker 5>That's a great one.

1:04:11.280 --> 1:04:14.080
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to the Chargers side of this game, beginning

1:04:14.120 --> 1:04:17.400
<v Speaker 1>with Austin Eckler, a rare B grade in a tough

1:04:17.480 --> 1:04:19.800
<v Speaker 1>matchup for him, and you got a factor in some

1:04:19.880 --> 1:04:22.800
<v Speaker 1>recent dud games for Eckler too, Coming off a season

1:04:22.840 --> 1:04:27.800
<v Speaker 1>low twelve touches. Eckler surprisingly has the eighth worst running

1:04:27.840 --> 1:04:31.320
<v Speaker 1>grade by Pro Football Focus, and the Chargers offensive line

1:04:31.360 --> 1:04:35.280
<v Speaker 1>is the second worst run block grade Ravensari middle of

1:04:35.320 --> 1:04:38.160
<v Speaker 1>the pack run defense by most metrics, but they do

1:04:38.200 --> 1:04:39.920
<v Speaker 1>give up four and a half yards per carry that's

1:04:40.000 --> 1:04:42.160
<v Speaker 1>ninth most. So you've got an angle here on Eckler

1:04:42.160 --> 1:04:44.600
<v Speaker 1>he's still obviously you're gonna start him, but I just

1:04:44.680 --> 1:04:47.240
<v Speaker 1>don't have the usual optimism I normally have on Eckler

1:04:47.240 --> 1:04:50.520
<v Speaker 1>in this game. All Right, let's go to the let's

1:04:50.560 --> 1:04:52.200
<v Speaker 1>go to the passing game, and I want to start

1:04:52.240 --> 1:04:59.120
<v Speaker 1>with Justin air Bear. Baltimore's allowed the fewest passing touchdowns

1:04:59.400 --> 1:05:03.320
<v Speaker 1>point eight per game. Only one quarterback has topped one

1:05:03.400 --> 1:05:07.000
<v Speaker 1>touchdown against Baltimore all season long. Your tiny window of

1:05:07.080 --> 1:05:09.600
<v Speaker 1>optimism is that the Ravens haven't played any top tier

1:05:09.640 --> 1:05:11.919
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks aside from Joe Burrow, who has hurt in both

1:05:11.920 --> 1:05:14.960
<v Speaker 1>of the Ravens games. And then the Keenan Allen matchups

1:05:14.960 --> 1:05:17.200
<v Speaker 1>tricky too, and normally that's your go to guy.

1:05:17.320 --> 1:05:19.320
<v Speaker 4>I just I don't love it all here. I can

1:05:19.360 --> 1:05:19.920
<v Speaker 4>only give you a C.

1:05:20.040 --> 1:05:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Grade on Justin air Bear Herbert Keenan Allen B grade

1:05:24.760 --> 1:05:28.280
<v Speaker 1>in the last two weeks. He leads the league in targets, receptions, yards,

1:05:28.280 --> 1:05:30.040
<v Speaker 1>and touchdowns. So you'd think it'd be an automatic A

1:05:30.200 --> 1:05:33.280
<v Speaker 1>for Keenan Allen. You gotta start him, but tough matchup.

1:05:33.680 --> 1:05:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Allen lines up in the slot sixty percent of the time.

1:05:36.400 --> 1:05:38.240
<v Speaker 1>That means he's gonna have his hands full with Kyle

1:05:38.280 --> 1:05:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Hamilton and Arthur Mallett. Hamilton gives up just a fifty

1:05:42.200 --> 1:05:45.120
<v Speaker 1>seven passer rating and Mallett hasn't allowed a touchdown all year,

1:05:45.200 --> 1:05:47.760
<v Speaker 1>So I mean, there's just it's a tough spot. Since

1:05:47.800 --> 1:05:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Week two, Baltimore has only allowed four touchdowns to wide

1:05:51.720 --> 1:05:55.240
<v Speaker 1>receivers and that brings us to the tight end position.

1:05:55.520 --> 1:05:59.560
<v Speaker 1>Donald parrm If Gerald Everett is out and it looks

1:05:59.560 --> 1:06:02.280
<v Speaker 1>like he's going to be out for this game, I

1:06:02.320 --> 1:06:05.000
<v Speaker 1>think Parm's startable with everet out. Last week, Parm ran

1:06:05.120 --> 1:06:08.120
<v Speaker 1>thirty routes. In games where Parm has run twenty three

1:06:08.280 --> 1:06:11.600
<v Speaker 1>or more routes, he averages five targets, four catches, fifty yards,

1:06:11.640 --> 1:06:12.400
<v Speaker 1>and half a touchdown.

1:06:12.480 --> 1:06:14.920
<v Speaker 4>We'll take that. That's a win for a tight end.

1:06:15.200 --> 1:06:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Over the last five weeks, Baltimore's allowed the fifth most

1:06:17.840 --> 1:06:21.120
<v Speaker 1>tight end reception. So yeah, let's let's give Parm a

1:06:21.160 --> 1:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>shot with us C grade.

1:06:23.680 --> 1:06:25.000
<v Speaker 4>And then what about Quinton Johnson.

1:06:25.040 --> 1:06:30.040
<v Speaker 5>You wait, you're totally you're totally skipping over stone Cole Smart.

1:06:30.200 --> 1:06:33.120
<v Speaker 4>I know, I was like, who is this guy? Apparently

1:06:33.160 --> 1:06:34.520
<v Speaker 4>he's got a pedigree.

1:06:34.080 --> 1:06:38.040
<v Speaker 1>As a OWT, as a quarterback, a running back, a receiver,

1:06:38.240 --> 1:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>a tight end something like that in his history.

1:06:40.760 --> 1:06:43.400
<v Speaker 5>He's apparently he's a great ass six.

1:06:43.800 --> 1:06:46.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well, Palm's even bigger than that. Let me get

1:06:46.720 --> 1:06:51.080
<v Speaker 4>he played basketball. That's no point in list. Probably Quinton Johnson.

1:06:52.320 --> 1:06:54.520
<v Speaker 1>It's we're only half a season into his rookie year,

1:06:55.040 --> 1:06:58.160
<v Speaker 1>so we're not I'm not calling anybody a bust.

1:06:58.560 --> 1:06:59.640
<v Speaker 4>But he might be a bust.

1:07:01.320 --> 1:07:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Maybe had a game changing drop last week. This is

1:07:04.320 --> 1:07:06.160
<v Speaker 1>like the prem you know, he said, so many great

1:07:06.200 --> 1:07:12.600
<v Speaker 1>opportunities for Quinton Johnson to be, to Pat Johnston to

1:07:12.600 --> 1:07:14.480
<v Speaker 1>make it, to be a big part of this offense

1:07:15.000 --> 1:07:17.880
<v Speaker 1>hasn't happened yet, and it's not probably yet.

1:07:17.920 --> 1:07:18.440
<v Speaker 4>But that's all.

1:07:18.560 --> 1:07:21.240
<v Speaker 5>That's the problem When sometimes I see people being like, oh,

1:07:21.320 --> 1:07:23.480
<v Speaker 5>Julio Jones only did this in his first you know,

1:07:23.560 --> 1:07:26.400
<v Speaker 5>nine to ten games. There are players who only did

1:07:26.440 --> 1:07:28.640
<v Speaker 5>so much in their first nine or ten games. I'm like,

1:07:28.680 --> 1:07:31.000
<v Speaker 5>but Johnson's had the opportunities and hit him in the

1:07:31.080 --> 1:07:32.560
<v Speaker 5>chest and dropped right. You know.

1:07:32.920 --> 1:07:35.920
<v Speaker 1>That's the worry Rams taking on the cards. Brian on

1:07:35.960 --> 1:07:39.200
<v Speaker 1>the Rams side, you already told us about Matthew Stafford,

1:07:39.720 --> 1:07:40.440
<v Speaker 1>who you liked.

1:07:40.440 --> 1:07:42.960
<v Speaker 4>In this matchup. Cooper Cup's gonna play.

1:07:43.000 --> 1:07:45.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, Cooper, Cup is gonna play. I had an A

1:07:45.600 --> 1:07:48.160
<v Speaker 6>on Pooka Nakua assuming Cup was gonna sit. I thought

1:07:48.160 --> 1:07:49.920
<v Speaker 6>they might rest them in this game, but again they're not,

1:07:50.000 --> 1:07:52.160
<v Speaker 6>so I got a B on both Cup and Nikua,

1:07:52.240 --> 1:07:55.000
<v Speaker 6>and I mentioned this earlier. The Rams and Cardinals did

1:07:55.120 --> 1:07:58.160
<v Speaker 6>meet in week six for the first meeting of the seasons.

1:07:58.200 --> 1:08:00.800
<v Speaker 6>We'll reference that Pukah only had four for twenty six

1:08:00.880 --> 1:08:03.440
<v Speaker 6>scoreless yards in the first meeting. Cuple went off for

1:08:03.560 --> 1:08:05.640
<v Speaker 6>seven catches one hundred and forty eight yards in a touchdown,

1:08:05.960 --> 1:08:08.400
<v Speaker 6>but that could easily be flip flop. You're not gonna

1:08:08.400 --> 1:08:10.480
<v Speaker 6>sit either one when they're healthy, So just a be

1:08:10.880 --> 1:08:13.040
<v Speaker 6>though for Cup and Nakua to two. At Well was

1:08:13.080 --> 1:08:14.480
<v Speaker 6>going to be might take a chance with me wide

1:08:14.520 --> 1:08:16.880
<v Speaker 6>receiver of Cup sat. The Cup is playing, so at

1:08:16.880 --> 1:08:19.040
<v Speaker 6>Well is on the bench, and Tyler Higbee was going

1:08:19.120 --> 1:08:22.080
<v Speaker 6>to get a C if Cup sat because Higbee is

1:08:22.120 --> 1:08:24.040
<v Speaker 6>averaged six and a half targets and fifty yards per

1:08:24.080 --> 1:08:26.559
<v Speaker 6>game with Cup on the sideline. But again, Cup playing,

1:08:26.600 --> 1:08:28.559
<v Speaker 6>so he could be on the bench. But guess who's

1:08:28.600 --> 1:08:31.960
<v Speaker 6>not on the bench and who is back? Kyron Williams,

1:08:32.080 --> 1:08:33.920
<v Speaker 6>Kyron Williams, my boy.

1:08:34.760 --> 1:08:35.720
<v Speaker 4>I wanted to give him an a.

1:08:35.840 --> 1:08:37.160
<v Speaker 6>I thought he was going to walk into a full

1:08:37.200 --> 1:08:41.120
<v Speaker 6>time the full time you know workload. Sean McVay is

1:08:41.200 --> 1:08:43.040
<v Speaker 6>kind of hinted they'll ease him back in. I don't

1:08:43.080 --> 1:08:46.080
<v Speaker 6>totally buy it. I still think he leads the Rams

1:08:46.200 --> 1:08:48.360
<v Speaker 6>backfield in touches. He had one hundred and fifty eight

1:08:48.400 --> 1:08:50.760
<v Speaker 6>rushing yards and a score in the first meeting. He

1:08:50.800 --> 1:08:52.680
<v Speaker 6>didn't need to catch a pass because the Rams kind

1:08:52.720 --> 1:08:55.960
<v Speaker 6>of rolled the Cardinals in this one. Arizona has surrendered

1:08:56.000 --> 1:08:58.080
<v Speaker 6>the third most PPR points. He running back, so a

1:08:58.120 --> 1:09:01.840
<v Speaker 6>safe be for Kyron Williams in his return and Royce

1:09:01.880 --> 1:09:04.160
<v Speaker 6>Freeman back to the bench. He did beat out Darryl Henderson, though,

1:09:04.160 --> 1:09:06.800
<v Speaker 6>which I didn't see it coming. I mean, if you're

1:09:06.800 --> 1:09:10.080
<v Speaker 6>in a super deep league, Royce Freeman might be playable

1:09:10.080 --> 1:09:11.840
<v Speaker 6>in a pinch, but for the most part he is

1:09:11.880 --> 1:09:15.799
<v Speaker 6>on the bench. Over the Arizona side. James Connor forever

1:09:15.880 --> 1:09:19.000
<v Speaker 6>gets to see. Basically did not play in the first meeting,

1:09:19.240 --> 1:09:21.840
<v Speaker 6>so no recent history there, but he has touched the

1:09:21.880 --> 1:09:24.360
<v Speaker 6>ball at least sixteen times in the two games since

1:09:24.400 --> 1:09:27.160
<v Speaker 6>returning from ir but not the best matchup for Connor.

1:09:27.479 --> 1:09:29.759
<v Speaker 6>The Rams are allowing just one hundred and nine combo

1:09:29.840 --> 1:09:33.360
<v Speaker 6>yards per game, so again per usual, just a volume

1:09:33.479 --> 1:09:36.719
<v Speaker 6>C for James Connor and over to the passing game.

1:09:36.840 --> 1:09:40.920
<v Speaker 6>It's a little messy here. Michael Wilson ruled out again

1:09:40.960 --> 1:09:43.599
<v Speaker 6>he will not play. So we got Marquise Brown, Rondell Moore,

1:09:43.600 --> 1:09:46.040
<v Speaker 6>and Greg Dortsch. I kind to give all of them

1:09:46.040 --> 1:09:49.000
<v Speaker 6>a cee. Brown was targeted eleven times in the first

1:09:49.040 --> 1:09:51.800
<v Speaker 6>meeting but only caught four balls for thirty thirty four

1:09:52.160 --> 1:09:53.040
<v Speaker 6>scoreless yards.

1:09:53.040 --> 1:09:54.719
<v Speaker 4>But again, Josh Dobbs was the quarterback.

1:09:54.880 --> 1:09:57.720
<v Speaker 6>Then they have a quote unquote new quarterback now that

1:09:57.800 --> 1:10:01.240
<v Speaker 6>is Kyler Murray, so Hollywood would still be Murray's preferred

1:10:01.280 --> 1:10:04.439
<v Speaker 6>option at wide receiver. Moore caught a long touchdown last

1:10:04.479 --> 1:10:07.200
<v Speaker 6>year on his only target, but Greg Dortch he led

1:10:07.200 --> 1:10:11.080
<v Speaker 6>the Cardinals in receiving. So I like Brown, then Dorsch,

1:10:11.240 --> 1:10:15.000
<v Speaker 6>then more with C grades in that order, and lastly,

1:10:15.200 --> 1:10:16.320
<v Speaker 6>Kyler Murray.

1:10:16.240 --> 1:10:17.920
<v Speaker 4>Was your take a chance on me quarterback chart.

1:10:18.040 --> 1:10:21.880
<v Speaker 6>I'm sorry not lastly Trey McBride last week didn't come

1:10:21.920 --> 1:10:24.759
<v Speaker 6>through with that A grade last year, but still commands

1:10:24.760 --> 1:10:27.320
<v Speaker 6>a ton of targets when Murray's the quarterback. He had

1:10:27.360 --> 1:10:29.599
<v Speaker 6>four catches for sixty two yards in the first game,

1:10:29.720 --> 1:10:33.639
<v Speaker 6>Trey McBride, and that was with Zach Ertz playing. Yeah,

1:10:33.800 --> 1:10:36.400
<v Speaker 6>ERT's not playing in this game. The Rams allowing nearly

1:10:36.439 --> 1:10:38.760
<v Speaker 6>five catches and sixty yards per game to tight ends,

1:10:39.080 --> 1:10:40.679
<v Speaker 6>So a safe b for Trey McBride.

1:10:40.800 --> 1:10:44.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, when we come back, a segment we like

1:10:44.120 --> 1:10:47.320
<v Speaker 1>to call premature speculation. We'll give you guys you can

1:10:47.360 --> 1:10:51.840
<v Speaker 1>pick up this week that would normally not be available

1:10:51.920 --> 1:10:52.920
<v Speaker 1>or people try to pick up.

1:10:53.160 --> 1:10:55.720
<v Speaker 4>You know how this works. Premature speculation coming up next.

1:10:55.720 --> 1:10:56.160
<v Speaker 4>Stay tuned.

1:11:25.000 --> 1:11:28.919
<v Speaker 1>Final segment Fantasy Football Weekly for this week, number twelve

1:11:29.439 --> 1:11:39.000
<v Speaker 1>and the playoffs rooms here unbelievable close. I think it's

1:11:39.000 --> 1:11:42.040
<v Speaker 1>the Galaga defender something like that.

1:11:42.040 --> 1:11:42.799
<v Speaker 4>I'm not positive.

1:11:43.360 --> 1:11:46.559
<v Speaker 1>Uh, this is a segment we call premature speculation. Players

1:11:46.560 --> 1:11:48.160
<v Speaker 1>you want to pick up now that other people will

1:11:48.200 --> 1:11:49.400
<v Speaker 1>be trying to pick up next.

1:11:49.240 --> 1:11:50.240
<v Speaker 4>Week, Scott, who you got?

1:11:50.520 --> 1:11:53.160
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna go with a T. Perry with Michael Thomas

1:11:53.160 --> 1:11:55.920
<v Speaker 5>sideline for a bit here at Perry is the next

1:11:55.960 --> 1:11:58.960
<v Speaker 5>man up? Six five, two, ten, four, four seven, forty.

1:11:59.000 --> 1:12:00.800
<v Speaker 5>I know, I know. Which is the type of guy

1:12:00.800 --> 1:12:04.759
<v Speaker 5>that loves those metrics? Yes, Alave and Shaheed are out there.

1:12:05.000 --> 1:12:08.400
<v Speaker 5>But Perry got four four targets and a score after

1:12:08.439 --> 1:12:11.759
<v Speaker 5>Thomas went down. Not just that, he led the team

1:12:11.800 --> 1:12:15.880
<v Speaker 5>in snaps after Thomas went down, so he was out there.

1:12:15.760 --> 1:12:18.880
<v Speaker 5>There's there's a non zero chance he becomes something.

1:12:18.840 --> 1:12:22.639
<v Speaker 1>Right, right, Okay, at Perry kind of interested in that angle, Brian,

1:12:22.640 --> 1:12:24.760
<v Speaker 1>who's your premature speculation player.

1:12:24.960 --> 1:12:27.360
<v Speaker 6>Not super exciting, but you might just have yourself a

1:12:27.400 --> 1:12:30.760
<v Speaker 6>starting running back down the stretch, and that is Cincinnati's

1:12:30.800 --> 1:12:33.600
<v Speaker 6>Travion Williams. And it's this simple. The Bengals are in

1:12:33.680 --> 1:12:36.160
<v Speaker 6>last place in their division right now. They're done. They're

1:12:36.200 --> 1:12:38.479
<v Speaker 6>not making the playoffs, they're not What is the point

1:12:38.560 --> 1:12:41.519
<v Speaker 6>of continually running Joe Mixon into the ground, who's really

1:12:41.520 --> 1:12:44.639
<v Speaker 6>done nothing anyway? Why not at some point and Trayvon

1:12:44.720 --> 1:12:46.960
<v Speaker 6>Williams is the only running back who's been getting touches,

1:12:47.320 --> 1:12:49.800
<v Speaker 6>granted it's a change of pace other than Mixon. So

1:12:50.600 --> 1:12:52.720
<v Speaker 6>Travon Williams, they might just run him out there and

1:12:52.760 --> 1:12:55.040
<v Speaker 6>he'll get fifteen to twenty touches the game. And not

1:12:55.040 --> 1:12:57.080
<v Speaker 6>that you're gonna he's an auto start, but he's a

1:12:57.160 --> 1:12:59.360
<v Speaker 6>nice player to have on your bench at the very

1:12:59.439 --> 1:13:01.120
<v Speaker 6>least Travion Williams.

1:13:01.160 --> 1:13:04.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, my premature speculation is also a backup running

1:13:04.120 --> 1:13:07.960
<v Speaker 1>back Kenneth Gainwell from Philadelphia. Now, do you guys remember

1:13:08.040 --> 1:13:09.840
<v Speaker 1>back in August when we all he was gonna be

1:13:09.880 --> 1:13:12.080
<v Speaker 1>the starter. Well, we didn't know for sure, right, you know,

1:13:12.120 --> 1:13:15.559
<v Speaker 1>but we were like, there's too many guys, and most

1:13:15.600 --> 1:13:19.439
<v Speaker 1>of us passed on DeAndre Swift many many times in

1:13:19.479 --> 1:13:21.080
<v Speaker 1>the draft, right, so he went off the board in

1:13:21.120 --> 1:13:24.960
<v Speaker 1>like round six of most fantasy drafts. I'm estimating much

1:13:24.960 --> 1:13:28.920
<v Speaker 1>of our hesitation was because of Swift's history of injury,

1:13:29.280 --> 1:13:32.599
<v Speaker 1>which is very real, spanning all three of US Detroit seasons.

1:13:32.600 --> 1:13:36.120
<v Speaker 1>He missed significant time in all those seasons despite never

1:13:36.120 --> 1:13:40.360
<v Speaker 1>even being a work horse. Fast forward to today, Swift's

1:13:40.400 --> 1:13:44.320
<v Speaker 1>logging twenty touches per game since Week two, a pace

1:13:44.360 --> 1:13:47.479
<v Speaker 1>that puts him behind only Josh Jacobs, Christian McCaffrey, and

1:13:47.520 --> 1:13:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Travis Etn. That's it, then, DeAndre Swift. Now it's hard

1:13:53.160 --> 1:13:55.680
<v Speaker 1>to guess right on when a player's going to be injured, right,

1:13:55.800 --> 1:13:57.200
<v Speaker 1>but we can look at a player who had a

1:13:57.200 --> 1:13:59.840
<v Speaker 1>three year track record of injury and go, okay, now,

1:14:00.160 --> 1:14:02.400
<v Speaker 1>touching the ball twenty times a game.

1:14:02.439 --> 1:14:06.320
<v Speaker 5>Or or a Philly team that might realize, oh, we're

1:14:06.320 --> 1:14:07.960
<v Speaker 5>in it to win the super Bowl and not these

1:14:08.000 --> 1:14:09.040
<v Speaker 5>last games of the season.

1:14:09.120 --> 1:14:10.000
<v Speaker 4>That was my other point.

1:14:10.080 --> 1:14:12.320
<v Speaker 5>Okay, I'm glad I jumped in this, Stealers.

1:14:12.479 --> 1:14:12.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm fine.

1:14:12.960 --> 1:14:14.559
<v Speaker 1>Then the Eagles are nine and one, so at some

1:14:14.600 --> 1:14:17.240
<v Speaker 1>point they might start playoff planning and want to keep

1:14:17.280 --> 1:14:21.519
<v Speaker 1>Swift healthy. So there's two different scenarios where Kenneth game

1:14:21.640 --> 1:14:25.840
<v Speaker 1>well can end up being a meaningful participant in the

1:14:26.240 --> 1:14:26.800
<v Speaker 1>for your team.

1:14:26.880 --> 1:14:30.720
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, fantasy managers who are relying on Eagles, you we

1:14:30.840 --> 1:14:34.400
<v Speaker 6>want them to lose at least one game because they

1:14:34.479 --> 1:14:34.880
<v Speaker 6>went out.

1:14:35.479 --> 1:14:36.160
<v Speaker 4>They're sitting there.

1:14:36.200 --> 1:14:38.639
<v Speaker 1>I think Dallas is so close though, right, and Dallas

1:14:38.640 --> 1:14:39.880
<v Speaker 1>playing great ball right now.

1:14:40.000 --> 1:14:42.320
<v Speaker 6>Eight and three, but they still need the Eagles to

1:14:42.400 --> 1:14:45.240
<v Speaker 6>lose a game, which they could this week.

1:14:45.280 --> 1:14:48.120
<v Speaker 4>What a great segue. Oh kick it the church just

1:14:48.120 --> 1:14:48.559
<v Speaker 4>really good.

1:14:48.640 --> 1:14:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's it's Bills versus Eagles. Scott, Let's let's go

1:14:51.880 --> 1:14:55.360
<v Speaker 1>to you for this game. Yeah, let's start. I want

1:14:55.360 --> 1:14:58.280
<v Speaker 1>to start Bill's side of this. Okay, shout all. A

1:14:58.280 --> 1:15:01.240
<v Speaker 1>lot of inconsistent performances. From a fantasy standpoint, it's all

1:15:01.240 --> 1:15:01.559
<v Speaker 1>been good.

1:15:01.640 --> 1:15:04.519
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it doesn't matter from a fantasy standpoint. In fact,

1:15:04.560 --> 1:15:07.439
<v Speaker 5>he's got multiple scores in ten straight. In fact, he's

1:15:07.439 --> 1:15:10.439
<v Speaker 5>got multiple scores in thirteen of the last fourteen games

1:15:10.520 --> 1:15:12.320
<v Speaker 5>dating back to last year, so he's I was getting

1:15:12.360 --> 1:15:15.080
<v Speaker 5>those for you. Yes, the Eagles have allowed multiple scores

1:15:15.120 --> 1:15:17.599
<v Speaker 5>to passers in three straight and they allowed the third

1:15:17.600 --> 1:15:20.160
<v Speaker 5>most touchdowns six months passing yards. It's an A grade

1:15:20.160 --> 1:15:22.080
<v Speaker 5>for Josh Allen. I really didn't need to go for

1:15:22.200 --> 1:15:25.080
<v Speaker 5>all of that. Stefan Diggs is going to get an

1:15:25.080 --> 1:15:29.400
<v Speaker 5>A grade. He's he's Although Kincaid has been outproducing digs

1:15:29.439 --> 1:15:33.120
<v Speaker 5>since Knox went down, he still digs. And this Eagles

1:15:33.120 --> 1:15:36.360
<v Speaker 5>defense is allowing the most receptions, fifth most yards, second

1:15:36.360 --> 1:15:38.920
<v Speaker 5>most touchdown to wide receiver, which is a little surprising

1:15:38.960 --> 1:15:41.240
<v Speaker 5>because they got Bradbury and Sleigh on the outsides there,

1:15:41.240 --> 1:15:44.479
<v Speaker 5>but they're allowing The part of it is game scripts

1:15:44.560 --> 1:15:47.240
<v Speaker 5>are forcing teams to pass to catch up to the

1:15:47.320 --> 1:15:49.479
<v Speaker 5>Eagles when they get ahead, So that's a lot. That's

1:15:49.520 --> 1:15:50.800
<v Speaker 5>a big part of that. But I do have an

1:15:50.800 --> 1:15:53.400
<v Speaker 5>A grade on Diggs. I have Gabe Davis on the

1:15:53.400 --> 1:15:57.559
<v Speaker 5>bench despite I believe Joe Brady's the OC there now

1:15:58.120 --> 1:16:01.439
<v Speaker 5>for the Bills. Yes, yes, something like Gabe Davis, who

1:16:01.479 --> 1:16:03.760
<v Speaker 5>didn't have a catch, had the best game of the

1:16:03.800 --> 1:16:06.400
<v Speaker 5>wide receivers last week three. The block eat he did

1:16:06.439 --> 1:16:08.679
<v Speaker 5>and the rud Gabriel that's sweet.

1:16:08.720 --> 1:16:09.680
<v Speaker 4>That does not help us.

1:16:09.960 --> 1:16:12.519
<v Speaker 5>I know bench grade on Gabe Davis, two goose eggs

1:16:12.560 --> 1:16:14.519
<v Speaker 5>in the last three weeks. I just can't trust that.

1:16:14.920 --> 1:16:18.120
<v Speaker 5>Khalil Shakira, I actually have a C grade on Eagles

1:16:18.479 --> 1:16:24.080
<v Speaker 5>fourth worst against the slot. He's outproduced Gabriel Davis since

1:16:24.160 --> 1:16:27.839
<v Speaker 5>Knox went out and they started playing more eleven personnel.

1:16:27.880 --> 1:16:31.000
<v Speaker 5>Putting Shakir in the slot, he also gets to avoid

1:16:31.040 --> 1:16:34.639
<v Speaker 5>Bradbury and Slay and stay inside, and of course they're

1:16:34.640 --> 1:16:38.360
<v Speaker 5>bad against the slot. So a gray Dalton Kincaid third

1:16:38.400 --> 1:16:43.599
<v Speaker 5>among tight ends in separation Dawson Knox went down. Kincaid

1:16:43.640 --> 1:16:46.040
<v Speaker 5>out produced digs. Since I mentioned all of that, but

1:16:46.160 --> 1:16:49.840
<v Speaker 5>three straight tight ends have scored on the Eagles, Travis Kelce,

1:16:50.320 --> 1:16:53.839
<v Speaker 5>Jake Ferguson, Logan Thomas. They've allowed six tight end touchdowns

1:16:53.880 --> 1:16:57.400
<v Speaker 5>in the last ten games, and in those last three games,

1:16:57.479 --> 1:17:00.640
<v Speaker 5>each lead tight end top sixteen pprs. I got an

1:17:00.640 --> 1:17:03.920
<v Speaker 5>A grade there, James Cook, This is where it gets

1:17:03.920 --> 1:17:05.759
<v Speaker 5>a little tougher. I have a C grade on James

1:17:05.760 --> 1:17:09.880
<v Speaker 5>Cook's He's his rushing yards over expectation is one of

1:17:09.960 --> 1:17:12.040
<v Speaker 5>the tops in the league. But the Eagles allow the

1:17:12.080 --> 1:17:15.880
<v Speaker 5>fewest combo yards touchdowns and fewest touchdown touches to backs

1:17:16.200 --> 1:17:19.519
<v Speaker 5>because teams try to pass on them. Cook does have

1:17:19.560 --> 1:17:21.679
<v Speaker 5>one hundred plus total yards in back to back games.

1:17:21.720 --> 1:17:24.000
<v Speaker 5>He's finally seen a little bit more goal line work.

1:17:24.000 --> 1:17:27.240
<v Speaker 5>We saw the five yard touchdown reception last week. But

1:17:27.320 --> 1:17:30.960
<v Speaker 5>what does worry me? It's a tough matchup and Ty

1:17:31.160 --> 1:17:34.800
<v Speaker 5>Johnson started playing ahead of Latavius Murray last week and

1:17:34.880 --> 1:17:37.799
<v Speaker 5>taking like he caught four balls. If he starts taking

1:17:37.840 --> 1:17:41.719
<v Speaker 5>the those and Latavius and Cook even split the goal

1:17:41.760 --> 1:17:44.960
<v Speaker 5>line work, that's rough spot for James Cook. I'm only

1:17:44.960 --> 1:17:47.519
<v Speaker 5>giving him the sea hoping he gets twelve to fifteen touches,

1:17:47.560 --> 1:17:49.840
<v Speaker 5>maybe a couple of catches. Yeah, it's gonna be a

1:17:49.880 --> 1:17:52.040
<v Speaker 5>pretty much a volume ce for James Cook in this one.

1:17:52.080 --> 1:17:54.240
<v Speaker 5>It'd be much different if time Montcomery didn't jump in

1:17:54.280 --> 1:17:58.080
<v Speaker 5>for catches. Yeah. Over on the Philly side, I have

1:17:58.120 --> 1:18:01.719
<v Speaker 5>a grades on Jalen Hurts and aj Brown. I don't

1:18:01.760 --> 1:18:03.280
<v Speaker 5>really know how much I have to talk about it,

1:18:03.320 --> 1:18:06.759
<v Speaker 5>but in the last nine games, Jalen Hurts has multiple

1:18:06.760 --> 1:18:11.719
<v Speaker 5>scores nine times. He just keeps doing it. Aj Brown

1:18:11.960 --> 1:18:15.920
<v Speaker 5>he does not get Lugaria Sneid this week, so he

1:18:16.120 --> 1:18:18.760
<v Speaker 5>should go back closer to the one hundred plus and

1:18:18.800 --> 1:18:21.800
<v Speaker 5>a touchdown streak of five games he had before that.

1:18:22.400 --> 1:18:25.400
<v Speaker 5>DeVonta Smith, I'm only giving with a C grade here.

1:18:25.439 --> 1:18:28.800
<v Speaker 5>He's gonna get Rozuel Douglas, who's been really stingy since

1:18:28.800 --> 1:18:31.080
<v Speaker 5>he came to Buffalo. Since he came to Buffalo, he's

1:18:31.120 --> 1:18:35.519
<v Speaker 5>allowing a thirteen eight point eight passer rating against. That's

1:18:35.600 --> 1:18:39.360
<v Speaker 5>really good since he's been since he switched teams. Three

1:18:39.400 --> 1:18:42.439
<v Speaker 5>straight A level days for DeVonta Smith, but I don't

1:18:42.479 --> 1:18:45.280
<v Speaker 5>love the matchup middle pack there. I'm giving him a

1:18:45.280 --> 1:18:50.000
<v Speaker 5>ceat DeAndre Swift B grade. Bill's allowing the third most targets,

1:18:50.040 --> 1:18:54.320
<v Speaker 5>fifth most receptions, third most receiving yards, six most yards

1:18:54.360 --> 1:18:56.400
<v Speaker 5>per reception to running backs. They don't do well against

1:18:56.400 --> 1:18:59.320
<v Speaker 5>pass catching running backs, and that is something DeAndre Swift

1:18:59.360 --> 1:19:01.439
<v Speaker 5>can do pretty well well. Over the last two weeks.

1:19:01.520 --> 1:19:04.639
<v Speaker 5>DeVonta Williams had his best pass catching day against them

1:19:05.040 --> 1:19:07.599
<v Speaker 5>last week. Breeze Hall had a great past catching day

1:19:07.600 --> 1:19:12.000
<v Speaker 5>against them. Swift himself has handled over seventy five percent

1:19:12.040 --> 1:19:14.479
<v Speaker 5>of the touches in the last three games. Over the

1:19:14.560 --> 1:19:17.320
<v Speaker 5>last three games, each game we just kind of talked

1:19:17.360 --> 1:19:19.720
<v Speaker 5>about that he's getting all that work. Maybe it tones down,

1:19:19.720 --> 1:19:21.720
<v Speaker 5>but I don't think it tones down just yet. So

1:19:21.800 --> 1:19:24.280
<v Speaker 5>B grade and DeAndre Swift makes sense.

1:19:24.520 --> 1:19:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to the Monday nighter Bears Vikings. These teams

1:19:28.240 --> 1:19:30.800
<v Speaker 1>were so bad against the run last year. Bears ranked

1:19:30.840 --> 1:19:33.639
<v Speaker 1>thirty first, Vikings ranked twenty six against the run.

1:19:33.800 --> 1:19:34.160
<v Speaker 4>Get this.

1:19:34.920 --> 1:19:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Over the last five weeks, which is a pretty big

1:19:37.920 --> 1:19:41.200
<v Speaker 1>sample size in the NFL, the Vikings and Bears ranked

1:19:41.320 --> 1:19:43.400
<v Speaker 1>number one and number two in run defense.

1:19:43.880 --> 1:19:46.559
<v Speaker 4>That's an amazing turnaround. Amazing, it really is.

1:19:47.200 --> 1:19:49.479
<v Speaker 1>I let to start the Chicago side. Let's go since

1:19:49.520 --> 1:19:51.160
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about the running game. They're all on the

1:19:51.160 --> 1:19:55.360
<v Speaker 1>bench unless and you may not know. You may not

1:19:55.400 --> 1:19:57.240
<v Speaker 1>know Sunday when you need to set your lineup. If

1:19:57.280 --> 1:20:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Don de Foreman's ruled out, then Khalil Herbert moves up

1:20:00.439 --> 1:20:02.960
<v Speaker 1>to a C grade. But if he goes, then we've

1:20:03.000 --> 1:20:05.960
<v Speaker 1>got just it's just split back do then we can't

1:20:06.000 --> 1:20:08.479
<v Speaker 1>do it. Herbert got the majority of the work last

1:20:08.479 --> 1:20:10.719
<v Speaker 1>week in part because Foreman got knocked out of the game.

1:20:10.840 --> 1:20:12.559
<v Speaker 1>But then he did nothing. He only had two yards

1:20:12.560 --> 1:20:16.120
<v Speaker 1>per carry over the last five games. Minnesota allowing just

1:20:16.240 --> 1:20:20.360
<v Speaker 1>fifty three rushing yards per game, and non DeAndre Swift

1:20:20.439 --> 1:20:24.040
<v Speaker 1>runners are averaging three point one yards per carry against Minnesota.

1:20:24.439 --> 1:20:26.160
<v Speaker 1>It's a virtually nothing.

1:20:25.920 --> 1:20:28.759
<v Speaker 5>That is. And that DeAndre Swift game was way beginning

1:20:28.760 --> 1:20:29.160
<v Speaker 5>of the season.

1:20:29.240 --> 1:20:31.120
<v Speaker 1>It was that was week two. Let's go to the

1:20:31.120 --> 1:20:35.840
<v Speaker 1>passing game justin Fields B grade. It's, oh, this guy

1:20:35.920 --> 1:20:39.839
<v Speaker 1>right here in his first game off that month layoff,

1:20:39.840 --> 1:20:42.200
<v Speaker 1>he got dialed up for fourteen runs, one hundred and

1:20:42.240 --> 1:20:43.080
<v Speaker 1>four rushing yards.

1:20:43.080 --> 1:20:43.640
<v Speaker 4>We love that.

1:20:43.720 --> 1:20:46.599
<v Speaker 1>If that rushing even close to that's going to keep happening.

1:20:46.800 --> 1:20:48.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't even care if he passes. Doesn't he just

1:20:48.800 --> 1:20:50.719
<v Speaker 1>go back there and run the whole time. He faced

1:20:50.720 --> 1:20:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Minnesota for about one half of week six, and he

1:20:54.640 --> 1:20:55.360
<v Speaker 1>had already rolled.

1:20:55.240 --> 1:20:56.640
<v Speaker 4>Up forty eight rushing yards.

1:20:56.720 --> 1:20:59.080
<v Speaker 1>So you extrapolate that and that would be ninety six

1:20:59.200 --> 1:21:01.880
<v Speaker 1>on a full game. We'll Vikings are ant above average

1:21:01.880 --> 1:21:05.000
<v Speaker 1>pass defense, allowing exactly one touchdown pass per game over

1:21:05.040 --> 1:21:08.160
<v Speaker 1>the last six weeks. Down's about right for justin Fields.

1:21:08.160 --> 1:21:10.280
<v Speaker 1>One touchdown pass and a bunch of rushing yardage B

1:21:10.360 --> 1:21:16.599
<v Speaker 1>grade for justin fields, leaning towards A grade Dj Moore again,

1:21:16.720 --> 1:21:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Vikings maybe without their starting cornerback at Caleb Evans, but

1:21:19.920 --> 1:21:22.080
<v Speaker 1>don't know. It's a Monday nighter. You'll want to, you know,

1:21:22.200 --> 1:21:23.880
<v Speaker 1>try to watch that if you can. But I think

1:21:24.400 --> 1:21:26.640
<v Speaker 1>either way you're gonna start DJ Moore because he's so

1:21:26.800 --> 1:21:29.760
<v Speaker 1>much more fantasy viable with justin fields than he was

1:21:29.840 --> 1:21:34.720
<v Speaker 1>with Tyson Bagen. Minnesota leans zone heavy, and DJ Moore

1:21:34.840 --> 1:21:38.040
<v Speaker 1>leads all Bears wide outs in targets and receptions against

1:21:38.200 --> 1:21:40.799
<v Speaker 1>zone coverage, and he's tenth over all in the league

1:21:41.200 --> 1:21:44.400
<v Speaker 1>against the zone. If if Evans misses, I could I

1:21:44.400 --> 1:21:46.120
<v Speaker 1>could see moving up to an A grade because that

1:21:46.160 --> 1:21:48.839
<v Speaker 1>puts Mackay Blackman on the field, and in that situation

1:21:48.960 --> 1:21:52.479
<v Speaker 1>last week, Blackman allowed receptions on all six of his targets.

1:21:52.680 --> 1:21:54.320
<v Speaker 1>I'd move him up to an A grade. You may

1:21:54.320 --> 1:21:57.040
<v Speaker 1>not know in time before about whether or not Evans

1:21:57.040 --> 1:21:57.680
<v Speaker 1>is enter out though.

1:21:57.680 --> 1:21:59.240
<v Speaker 4>On Sunday, all.

1:21:59.200 --> 1:22:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Right, let's talk talk about Cole Comett, the only other

1:22:01.439 --> 1:22:03.679
<v Speaker 1>player for the Bears who probably care about much better.

1:22:03.680 --> 1:22:06.600
<v Speaker 1>In the Tyson bagent games, almost exactly half of the

1:22:06.640 --> 1:22:09.639
<v Speaker 1>stats in field starts. So that's the bad news, averaging

1:22:09.680 --> 1:22:11.960
<v Speaker 1>just four catches thirty seven yards in the field starts.

1:22:12.240 --> 1:22:15.360
<v Speaker 1>But good tight ends have fared well against Minnesota. But

1:22:15.680 --> 1:22:17.840
<v Speaker 1>do you guys think is Cole Commet a good tight end?

1:22:20.280 --> 1:22:23.519
<v Speaker 5>I mean edge of top twelve, he's probably twelve to

1:22:23.560 --> 1:22:25.360
<v Speaker 5>fourteen range, ten to fourteen range.

1:22:25.400 --> 1:22:28.599
<v Speaker 1>He has this fun yeah, like top six tight ends

1:22:28.640 --> 1:22:31.639
<v Speaker 1>have done well against Minnesota and the rest really haven't.

1:22:31.960 --> 1:22:33.920
<v Speaker 4>I've got a C grade on Cole Comet. Let's go

1:22:33.920 --> 1:22:35.000
<v Speaker 4>to the Viking side. TJ.

1:22:35.080 --> 1:22:38.479
<v Speaker 1>Hockinson a little less used last week, likely because he

1:22:38.520 --> 1:22:40.960
<v Speaker 1>continues to play through a serious rib injury, and I

1:22:41.479 --> 1:22:43.240
<v Speaker 1>worry a bit that it'll be less used this week

1:22:43.240 --> 1:22:44.360
<v Speaker 1>too with the bye week coming.

1:22:44.400 --> 1:22:45.679
<v Speaker 4>Maybe they just rest him up here.

1:22:46.120 --> 1:22:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Countering that concern, Josh Dobbs averaging eleven targets to his

1:22:50.320 --> 1:22:53.160
<v Speaker 1>tight end per game since coming to Minnesota, most of

1:22:53.160 --> 1:22:55.840
<v Speaker 1>that going to Hockinson. Bears defense has seen the ninth

1:22:55.920 --> 1:22:58.559
<v Speaker 1>most targets the tight ends, six most receptions the tight

1:22:58.640 --> 1:23:00.679
<v Speaker 1>ends in a total of five touchdown the position.

1:23:01.080 --> 1:23:03.000
<v Speaker 4>So a grade TJ.

1:23:03.160 --> 1:23:03.639
<v Speaker 5>Hockinson.

1:23:04.360 --> 1:23:08.040
<v Speaker 1>I feel pretty confident about him. Feel pretty confident justin

1:23:08.120 --> 1:23:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Jefferson's not going to play in this game. They're going

1:23:09.960 --> 1:23:11.519
<v Speaker 1>to have him get right for through the bye week

1:23:11.640 --> 1:23:14.960
<v Speaker 1>next week. Jordan Addison has the top five receptions or

1:23:15.000 --> 1:23:18.639
<v Speaker 1>scored in the Josh Dobbs era. Over the last five weeks,

1:23:18.680 --> 1:23:22.280
<v Speaker 1>Chicago's allowed the fourth fewest yards to opposing wide receivers,

1:23:22.320 --> 1:23:26.240
<v Speaker 1>and that's thanks mostly to emerging star cornerback Jalen Johnson,

1:23:26.240 --> 1:23:29.200
<v Speaker 1>who basically just shuts down half the field. Over the

1:23:29.280 --> 1:23:33.280
<v Speaker 1>last five weeks, He's allowing two receptions for thirteen yards

1:23:33.280 --> 1:23:34.000
<v Speaker 1>in his coverage.

1:23:34.080 --> 1:23:34.680
<v Speaker 4>That is it.

1:23:34.800 --> 1:23:37.920
<v Speaker 1>So it is a tough matchup for Jordan Addison. I

1:23:37.960 --> 1:23:39.880
<v Speaker 1>can only get you to a C grade on him,

1:23:40.439 --> 1:23:43.120
<v Speaker 1>and that brings us to this.

1:23:43.040 --> 1:23:46.000
<v Speaker 3>Guy, Toby.

1:23:47.600 --> 1:23:48.400
<v Speaker 4>Josh Dobbs.

1:23:48.640 --> 1:23:52.840
<v Speaker 1>The Broncos exposed some of Dobbs's passing weaknesses last week,

1:23:52.880 --> 1:23:55.400
<v Speaker 1>and if you had to rely entirely on his arm

1:23:55.640 --> 1:23:57.719
<v Speaker 1>I'd give Dobbs a C or a bench grade against

1:23:57.720 --> 1:24:01.000
<v Speaker 1>an improving Chicago secondary. But fortunately he can run. The

1:24:01.040 --> 1:24:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Bears held Kirk Cousins to just one hundred and eighty

1:24:03.400 --> 1:24:06.280
<v Speaker 1>one yards and one touchdown in the earlier matchup, and

1:24:06.400 --> 1:24:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Cousins is obviously a lot better passer than Josh Dobbs.

1:24:09.520 --> 1:24:12.160
<v Speaker 1>But Dobbs has scored rushing touchdowns in five straight games,

1:24:12.200 --> 1:24:14.479
<v Speaker 1>and he's averaging forty four rushing yards and Vikings games,

1:24:14.479 --> 1:24:16.680
<v Speaker 1>and the Bears haven't seen any mobile quarterbacks yet and

1:24:16.720 --> 1:24:19.960
<v Speaker 1>haven't allowed a quarterback rushing touchdown this season. So Dobbs

1:24:19.960 --> 1:24:22.799
<v Speaker 1>comes in with a B grade thanks mostly to the legs.

1:24:23.000 --> 1:24:26.040
<v Speaker 1>I think he gets like one passing touchdown if he

1:24:26.120 --> 1:24:28.720
<v Speaker 1>runs for a touchdown and one passing touchdown. Yeah, we'll

1:24:28.760 --> 1:24:31.320
<v Speaker 1>take that. What about the running game for the Vikings?

1:24:31.439 --> 1:24:31.599
<v Speaker 3>Huh?

1:24:31.760 --> 1:24:35.519
<v Speaker 1>What a frustrating experience this has been. You know, got

1:24:35.520 --> 1:24:37.960
<v Speaker 1>plenty of things wrong this year. The one thing we

1:24:38.000 --> 1:24:44.880
<v Speaker 1>got right Alexander Madison. No rushing touchdowns and negative five

1:24:45.040 --> 1:24:50.360
<v Speaker 1>yards on runs originating from inside the ten yard line. Well, frustrating.

1:24:50.400 --> 1:24:52.240
<v Speaker 1>A lot of it's been bad blocking, but that's just

1:24:52.320 --> 1:24:56.240
<v Speaker 1>the reality of it. Apparently he can fumble an unlimited

1:24:56.320 --> 1:24:59.240
<v Speaker 1>number of times without losing his starter status to ty Chandler,

1:25:00.040 --> 1:25:03.240
<v Speaker 1>and is rushed for the third worst yards over expectation

1:25:03.479 --> 1:25:06.240
<v Speaker 1>at negative eighty yards.

1:25:07.439 --> 1:25:07.920
<v Speaker 4>This year.

1:25:08.080 --> 1:25:11.360
<v Speaker 6>So I saw you tweet that stat and then someone

1:25:11.439 --> 1:25:14.719
<v Speaker 6>accused you of cherry picking those stats. By cherry picking

1:25:15.200 --> 1:25:18.120
<v Speaker 6>highlights of bad blocking, but there were highlights that he

1:25:18.200 --> 1:25:21.360
<v Speaker 6>omitted that were bad vision from Alexander Madison. So it's

1:25:21.360 --> 1:25:24.639
<v Speaker 6>a never ending, i know, cherry picking festival of whatever

1:25:24.720 --> 1:25:25.960
<v Speaker 6>he's been bad, he's been awful.

1:25:26.000 --> 1:25:27.880
<v Speaker 1>And as I mentioned at the outset of this matchup,

1:25:27.920 --> 1:25:30.880
<v Speaker 1>over the past five games, Chicago ranks number one in

1:25:30.960 --> 1:25:33.439
<v Speaker 1>rushing yards allowed, just fifty two per game. So the

1:25:33.600 --> 1:25:36.360
<v Speaker 1>entire Minnesota running game is on the bench. I would

1:25:36.400 --> 1:25:38.120
<v Speaker 1>love to see ty Chandler get a bunch of work,

1:25:38.120 --> 1:25:40.160
<v Speaker 1>but apparently that's just not gonna happen in my lifetime,

1:25:41.320 --> 1:25:44.160
<v Speaker 1>he says bitterly. We've got a couple of minutes before

1:25:44.200 --> 1:25:46.400
<v Speaker 1>the end of the show. I was thinking about this

1:25:46.439 --> 1:25:50.880
<v Speaker 1>earlier this week. First round running backs next year. We

1:25:50.920 --> 1:25:53.760
<v Speaker 1>saw the running back This past draft cycle. We saw

1:25:53.840 --> 1:25:56.080
<v Speaker 1>running backs fall out of the first round more than

1:25:56.120 --> 1:25:59.960
<v Speaker 1>ever before, and only Christian McCaffrey of those that were

1:26:00.120 --> 1:26:02.599
<v Speaker 1>drafted in the first round last year, only Christian McCaffrey

1:26:02.640 --> 1:26:05.240
<v Speaker 1>has lived up to his draft status. If you look

1:26:05.240 --> 1:26:09.280
<v Speaker 1>ahead to next year, other than Christian McCaffrey, which running

1:26:09.280 --> 1:26:10.759
<v Speaker 1>backs are going to go in the first round.

1:26:11.400 --> 1:26:13.439
<v Speaker 5>I thought you're gonna phrase it by which one. If

1:26:13.479 --> 1:26:15.519
<v Speaker 5>there's one other one, which one, it would well.

1:26:15.560 --> 1:26:19.120
<v Speaker 6>Find another one as of right now, not be John Robinson,

1:26:19.160 --> 1:26:22.439
<v Speaker 6>but if he closes as a bell cow if Smith

1:26:22.439 --> 1:26:24.760
<v Speaker 6>gets fired, or if Smith gets fired, but two other

1:26:24.760 --> 1:26:26.360
<v Speaker 6>guys that I think could jump in, and they're both

1:26:26.360 --> 1:26:28.519
<v Speaker 6>coming off major knee injury this year and getting a

1:26:28.520 --> 1:26:31.799
<v Speaker 6>lot more work than I thought. Or Brestall and Javonte Williams.

1:26:31.880 --> 1:26:33.280
<v Speaker 6>I think they closed strong.

1:26:33.360 --> 1:26:35.600
<v Speaker 4>We can see the founders though, Yeah, I think so.

1:26:35.880 --> 1:26:38.479
<v Speaker 5>I think the other two candidates are Travis CTN and

1:26:38.520 --> 1:26:40.280
<v Speaker 5>potentially Jimior Gibbs.

1:26:39.960 --> 1:26:43.040
<v Speaker 1>But pro Gibbs it I think the problem on Gibbs

1:26:43.160 --> 1:26:45.960
<v Speaker 1>is always going to be touchdowns. He's not going to

1:26:46.000 --> 1:26:48.400
<v Speaker 1>get the ball to goal line and that's not changing,

1:26:48.920 --> 1:26:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I think. I think, and so many people got I

1:26:51.080 --> 1:26:53.120
<v Speaker 1>think just finally the world has figured out to the

1:26:53.160 --> 1:26:54.440
<v Speaker 1>opposite they're gonna.

1:26:54.280 --> 1:26:56.000
<v Speaker 5>That was That was me saying, these are the only

1:26:56.040 --> 1:26:58.800
<v Speaker 5>ones I can think of. Yeah, maybe Jonathan Taylor, if

1:26:58.840 --> 1:27:01.240
<v Speaker 5>he really just is cowish at the end of the.

1:27:01.160 --> 1:27:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Season again he goes electric down the stretch, I can

1:27:03.360 --> 1:27:05.680
<v Speaker 1>see that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but that's probably what it

1:27:05.680 --> 1:27:08.519
<v Speaker 1>would take. Thanks for listening, everybody, If you miss any
