Well, the answer is 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:31.120 that's easy answer these answers. You don't replace Melvin. You don't, no, man, Yeah, 0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:32.920 I missed you, man. I feel he's been a while 0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:35.920 since we hung out. Yeah. I was just thinking that, Yeah, 0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:38.520 because I did a show. I did the Thursday Morning 0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:41.080 show on Thanksgiving. It was like it was really the 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:45.360 first show. It was the first show a long time. Um. Besides, 0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:47.280 we were gone for one day that I feel like 0:01:47.280 --> 0:01:49.880 I've done that yet. It was weird. It's very weird. 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:53.000 Mike Blewett and Gabe, how did that show go? The 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:55.840 chemistry wasn't the same? Wasn't the same? They weren't dancing 0:01:55.840 --> 0:01:59.400 with you or anything? No, no, no pop culture references. 0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:02.760 No Dave matt Use band talk three days wait to 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.560 go to the concert though, that'd be fun. Nice you're 0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:09.200 going this week Thursday? Thursday? No, I'd rather watch football, 0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:12.080 isn't it? Saints Cowboys too? That's a pretty good game, Greg, 0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:14.440 I have tickets ready. It's a week now. I'm already 0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:16.120 in the LEADU. I'm going to the playoffs and locked 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.800 in the playoffs. I'm not. I'm not. Oh the sweet 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:26.000 sweet revenge, Greggy. Remember yes, our best friend forever Michael 0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:31.720 Florio remember what he too timed me to get Anthony 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:34.560 Miller times son of a gun. He also picked up 0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:37.480 a Garrett Blunt and start room. I'm Thanksgiving? How about hilarious? 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:40.480 Started the Garrett Blunt but annoying. I'm up nineteen points 0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:45.040 and he is kiki QT tonight tonight, I think I'm 0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:47.200 in the clear. I feel pretty good. I'm confident. I'm 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:49.160 not gonna say it's over, because anything can happen, but 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:52.880 I feel pretty good. Get my revenge against Michael Florio. 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:57.760 Good job, Brandy. How's your Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving? It's pretty good. 0:02:57.880 --> 0:02:59.720 I enjoyed it. It It was my Uh it was my 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:01.560 first Thanksgiving where I didn't spend a little of it 0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:04.400 at home because obviously engaged. Now you gotta kind of 0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:08.959 gotta please all parties involved. So half at King's house 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:10.680 to eat food, and then I went over to my 0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:13.960 house for dessert, drank a bunch, woke up drinking some mimoses, 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:19.680 and watch the parade, then watch football all day, eat family. Yeah, 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:28.280 fun shop On Friday, that uh, not really stuff because 0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:30.920 I found out that, uh, I had to make an 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:33.440 appearance on television Greg because I'm a big shot now. 0:03:33.720 --> 0:03:37.280 So I spent a lot of Friday night studying for 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:41.760 my appearance on w l n Y. It was good. 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.320 It's better or worse than your first appearance. It was 0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:47.160 definitely better, a little bit more comfortable. I also went 0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:49.520 for for four and one on the picks that I recommended. 0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:55.240 So there you go. Oh hit me back, Grego. Now 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:57.600 they already asked me about like December and stuff. So awesome. 0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.800 We'll find out that great man. How was how was 0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:04.040 your Thanksgiving? Your weekend shopping experience? You know what? Thursday? 0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:05.960 It was good, thanks it was fine. I was here 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:07.560 for a little while and we uh, I went out 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:11.240 to my dad's and and are you a big parade guy? 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:13.400 You were like, watch it on TV or attend it? 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:15.280 I mean I watched it out here to the last 0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:19.440 couple of years. Yeah, I went out during a commersional 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:21.520 watch it. But my sisters are really big. My sister 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:23.760 and mom are really big into the parade. I'm not 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:27.919 really I don't care about it, um, but Scrooge Friday 0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:32.960 was the best. Friday was the best. So great sleeping, 0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:34.120 I mean, I mean, I don't know for you, but 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:36.840 just like for me, sleeping in relaxing. So I got home. 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:39.720 So I got home to my apartment like eleven o'cock 0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:43.600 or so. On Thursday, I watched they watched wrestling, to 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:47.200 watch the end of the Thursday the Saints game, and 0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:49.680 then I watched a little wrestling, and I fell asleep 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:56.159 through the AJ style. You no clue, I haven't watched it. Yeah, um, 0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:58.240 so I went to bed. The best part was Judy 0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:02.520 was in Philly with her family, so myself, oh, single 0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:04.680 Greg and the back to paddle along. And it was 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:06.320 like the first time, like a week day, like it 0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:08.120 wasn't like on the weekends, like we have some day 0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:10.880 with Saturday and Sunday morning programming, right, so like I'm 0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:12.360 on call for that stuff, like I gotta help, I 0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:15.120 gotta help certain issues. So most days before the show, 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:17.960 like somebody calls me for whatever reason. But there was 0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:21.320 there was no live programming early in the morning on Friday, 0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:25.000 so I slept like eleven on Friday. I was like, 0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:26.960 oh my god, dude, it was like the latest n 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:29.520 I've slept in a long time. And I just I 0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:31.360 slept straight through the night and like we wake up 0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:33.039 a million times. I was spread out through the bed. 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:34.360 I was like, oh, this is the best day ever, 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:38.080 the best day ever. And I just laid there. I 0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:40.800 watched a bunch of TV on Friday that I had 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:44.640 dinner my mom, then went shopping on Saturday. Good weekend, man, 0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:47.560 really big weekend for the sun and then I came 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:49.400 home and I didn't have to hang out on Sunday, 0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:51.400 so they want to get home quickly. That was on 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:54.159 my couch all day watching football. It was awesome, great, 0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:58.680 great weekend, forty weekend. We're we're we're vitalized. We're re energized. 0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:02.240 Here the stretch run for the Fantasy playoffs. Greggy, have 0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:04.320 you ever seen the movie Just Friends. It's also on 0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:09.360 the list of like stupid funny like movies Ryan Reynolds. 0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:12.200 They should see Ryan Reynolds things. But I don't think 0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:16.799 I know that one. Well, that's a big like Thanksgiving tradition, 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:21.160 watch throughout the holidays for my family. It's extremely funny movie. 0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:24.120 You should watch it. Okay, it's a good one. So 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:29.440 I also did that on Thanksgiving. Um ready yeah, okay, 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.800 So we watched football yesterday. Also, just for the record 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:37.440 a little bit, I watched a lot of it. It's 0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:39.880 a lot of it. Yeah, okay, cool. So I watched 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:43.719 a lot of football yesterday and here are takeaways. Melvin 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:48.279 Gordon thing charges messed up. Huh. Yeah, he was questionable 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:52.400 for this game. A lot of people asking us yesterday 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:54.680 whether or not he was whether he was gonna play. 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:56.680 They were worried about it. We're getting questions Saturday night. 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:59.480 It's like nobody really don't know until we know. But 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:02.080 then obvious, So he played, and you know he did 0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:05.599 Melvin Gordon things. I mean, he's still scored, still scored 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:08.799 two touchdowns in this game on only uh on only 0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:12.680 ten carries, also had two receptions. But yeah, re injured 0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:15.360 his knee in this one. Looks like he's gonna miss 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:18.000 the next few weeks. Obviously the biggest story. And I 0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:19.400 know a lot of people, you know, this is what 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:22.000 they get frustrated about Melvin Gordon. I know, last year, 0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:23.680 I believe you only missed one game, but in years 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:26.080 past he has missed time. He has trouble, you know, 0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:29.680 finishing out seasons. But you can't be too mad at 0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:31.680 the guy. I mean, like like Craig said, it's that 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:33.760 he shouldn't have been playing in this game. They were 0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:35.840 what fourteen point favorites when it was all said and 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:37.960 done against the Cardinals. They probably didn't need him to 0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:40.000 win this game. That one of my thirty five points, 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:42.160 they won my thirty five points in this game. And 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:43.600 now it looks like he's gonna miss at least the 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:47.640 next two games they faced. They faced the Chiefs three 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:50.200 weeks from now, so you'd have to imagine they play 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:52.160 the Steelers next week. He's definitely not playing in that one. 0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:54.480 Then they play the Cincinnati Bengals. The way the Bengals 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:56.880 are playing right now, their defense can't stop anybody. They 0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:58.880 likely don't need Melvin Gordon for that game, So you 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:01.880 let him sit up the next two weeks. Will healthy 0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:05.240 come the Chiefs in Will that be week? I don't 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:08.440 think nobody knows, but I I'm gonna I'm gonna go 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:10.680 out there and predict that that's probably the next time 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:12.320 we see Melvin. Go. Yeah, I don't think that. I 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.200 don't think you'll see him that soon, I think, And 0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:17.080 we wanted for that because fantasy playoffs in this great 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:18.880 match up. From what we've seen, this is agreede to 0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.160 m C. L. Spray, which is, you know, more significant 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:23.120 than the Grade one obviously, and I think they'll keep 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:26.400 him out for a good amount of time. Unfortunately, and 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:28.440 after we gave the charges all this credit for sitting 0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:32.080 Melvin Gordon out in London going into the bye, and 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:33.800 he was and he's trying to talk his way into 0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:35.520 playing Ethnicnes like, you know what, we have a byby 0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:38.839 coming up. Let's rest doesn't get this right, something happened here, Frank, 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:41.400 like the Chargers have their eye on the playoffs, not 0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:44.439 a win against the Arizona Cardinals, which ultimately you couldn't 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:47.200 need Melvin Gordon four and given that they scored forty 0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:52.280 two unanswered points, they didn't And to let him talk 0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:54.080 him players are always gonna want to play for the 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.400 most part, to let him talk himself into this game 0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:59.240 after you were so smart about this earlier in the 0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:03.640 year and you had control over the situation, to lose 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:05.680 control to let a player talk himself in the game 0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:08.600 that you you don't want to. You don't want him 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:10.680 to be hurt for the stretch. And I understand this 0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:12.439 isn't It was not the hamstring. He hurt his knee, 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:14.880 and maybe they are unrelated, maybe they are right. Maybe 0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:16.679 his needs which the wrong way and maybe bang the 0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:18.680 wrong way and it's nothing to do with the hamstring. 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:21.560 But this is a bad call by I thought, Anthony Lynn, 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.560 the Charges the organization, Yeah, definitely. And now you know 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:26.880 we're looking at Austin Ekeler to see, you know, what 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:30.079 will his usage be while Melvin Gordon is out. And 0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:32.640 in Week seven, when Melvin Gordon missed that game, Austin 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:35.880 Ekeler played of the snaps. In that game, he had 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:38.640 twelve carries. He also had five receptions. That was against 0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:40.880 the Titans. He didn't perform well, but the Titans run 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.319 defense has actually been pretty good this year. And then 0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:46.560 yesterday Austin Ekeler weird game for the Charges running back 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:48.520 back over roll because by the time that they realized 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:50.400 Melvin Gordon was ruled out for the game, they were 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:54.600 already up so big. So Austin Ekeler only saw of 0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:57.400 the snaps yesterday five carries, did have ten receptions though 0:09:57.600 --> 0:10:01.720 was targeted eleven times um. And then Justin Jackson also 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.760 played thirteen snaps yesterday. He rushed seven times for fifty 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:07.640 seven yards. So obviously, if you own Austin Ekeler with 0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:09.520 Melvin Gordon, you think you're in the clear. But if 0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:12.440 you don't own Austin Ekeler, you know, we talk about 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:14.839 fab every single week at this point in the season. 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:16.000 You know a lot of people don't have a lot 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:17.880 of fab left. If you were a Melvin Gordon owner 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.800 and you don't have Keler you're I think I think 0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:23.320 you know you didn't necessarily mess up. I mean, you 0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:25.000 want to have your handcuff. But if you didn't, you're 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.120 gonna want to be aggressive to try and get Justin Jackson. 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:29.280 Because I don't know that Austin Ekeler is just going 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:33.839 to Justin Jackson. Yeah, that's right converted. I mean he 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.720 plays that he plays in the Sacramento Kings, right Greg. 0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:39.120 So they just suited him up yesterday for the Los 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.720 Angeles Chargers. But seriously, I mean, he looked good yesterday. 0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:44.600 Seven carries, fifty seven yards, eight point one yards per carry. 0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:46.720 I know a few people we are talking him up 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:50.480 throughout the preseason. Um believe he's a rookie, right Dustin Jackson. 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:53.560 They just they just drafted him this past year, so 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.080 they're excited about him. I don't know that Austin Ekeler 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.679 is gonna touch the ball as often as Melvin Gordon 0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:01.040 did in his absence all these not you do, you 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:03.040 don't have this guess you know that that that's not 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:06.360 gonna happen. There's not even even so like when when 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:08.280 Melvin Gordon was doing his thing this year, Austin Neckler 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:10.400 was still touching the ball. So definitely Austin Ekeler. You 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:13.160 look at him, maybe touched the ball in Melvin Gordon's 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:16.120 absence at least fifteen times. Maybe his ceiling is twenty. 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:17.840 But Justin Jackson is going to see the ball at 0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:20.240 least eight ten times a game. I agree, But but 0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:22.360 I think that's more of a desperation play than anything else. 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:25.600 With nobody being done with boys, I'm not spending if 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:27.640 I'm not on Elvin Gordon er, which I'm not anywhere. Actually, 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:32.200 I agree with Justin Jackson. But Austin Ekeler, are we 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:35.559 talking RB one? Well the next couple of weeks, No, 0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:38.480 he's not. He's um he's a high end RB two. 0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:40.440 I would say he's in that ringe. It doesn't matter 0:11:40.440 --> 0:11:44.240 because it doesn't matter what using even matter what he's 0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:46.280 locked and loaded into your line up. Philip Rivers was 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:49.800 saantastic yesterday his first twenty five keenan now got rolling. 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:51.760 Mike Williams look good yesterday being the big guy in 0:11:51.760 --> 0:11:55.240 the end zone. The big guy Greggy caught all four 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:58.079 of his targets twenty five yards and two touchdowns. I 0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:00.640 don't really know why the Chargers don't You who's Mike 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:03.839 Williams more because he certainly looks the part, especially in 0:12:03.880 --> 0:12:05.440 the red zone. They just throw it up to him. 0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:08.080 I mean, he's a huge human being and he's scoring 0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:10.200 touchdowns at a great rate. So I wish that they 0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:12.120 would just kind of like phase out everybody else, like 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.320 we don't need a little Travis Benjamin like three or 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:16.839 four targets a week. You know, Tyroll Williams has been 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:18.880 fine for this team, but he's a He's an impending 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:20.640 free agent as well, so is he gonna be part 0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:22.640 of the future. Maybe they bring him back. But they 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:24.480 use a very high draft pick on Mike Williams, So 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:26.720 I I wish they would just kind of like, alright, 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:29.120 let's let's kill all this other noise around and let's 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:32.920 just run the offense through Keenan Allen, Mike Williams and 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:35.640 Melvin Gordon went healthy. Now Austin Ekeler, but I think 0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:38.400 that would be ideal. That would be awesome for fantasy purposes. 0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:40.520 So Mike Williams actually had to start him in the 0:12:40.600 --> 0:12:43.160 league yesterday like desperation, didn't want to, so that was 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:45.760 that was great, But uh, you know, Keenan Allen is 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:47.520 keeping up that streak. Now four weeks in a row 0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:49.800 where he's had at least a hundred yards or a touchdown. 0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:52.120 He's doing that thing again where he just takes over 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:54.559 in the second halves of seasons. So Keenan Allen, you 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:56.680 feel great about him. I know some people were asking 0:12:56.679 --> 0:12:58.760 me about Philip Rivers over the weekend. Do I started 0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:01.360 hammling Lamar Jackson. Everyone is getting excited about Jackson and 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:04.720 Jameis Winston and Baker Mayfield. Just start with little Rivers 0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.520 every week. Stop questioning it. In three touchdowns even in 0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:10.320 a so so matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. I think 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:14.480 Philip Rivers has had multiple touchdowns in every game this year. Greg, Yeah, 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:16.760 what are we questioning at this point? I don't know. 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:20.679 It's just because every single game this year, Greg, six 0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:23.920 touchdown to I N T ratio. Philip Rivers playing the 0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:26.480 best of his career at age thirty six. It's crazy 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:29.160 that Philip Rivers bet Roethlisberger both playing really good football. 0:13:29.200 --> 0:13:32.000 Get Ben in just one second. Eli Manning obviously a 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.040 very much the league downside of his career. Well, what 0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:36.280 are you talking about? Greg? I think he was I 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:40.560 thought he was a great DFS play this week. You 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:45.000 were you You weren't on Eli Manning against Philadelphia Eagles, Greg, No, no, no, 0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:47.600 he wasn't. Frank he was in your cash game line 0:13:47.640 --> 0:13:50.880 ups yesterday. No he wasn't. Frank be a cash game. 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:52.520 I had a very big cash game line up. Did 0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:55.600 not use an the tournament. Good job, Frank, I guess 0:13:55.840 --> 0:13:59.719 I had Christian McCaffrey. So that helps, certainly helps. Let's 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:02.640 get to a spurg who upset yesterday by Denver. Juju 0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:07.120 Smith Schuster had a ninety seven yard touchdown, which was awesome. Uh, 0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:12.199 Judy was very excited, very very excited. Ju Ju. D 0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:17.199 you did you? Did you? S Cooker? I didn't. That's 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:19.120 a teen name. Yeah, I don't think you revealed that 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:23.680 until right now. Cool. Yeah, she's got she's got Juju 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:26.680 and and she's Judy. You can't write this stuff, Greg, 0:14:26.800 --> 0:14:29.280 he really can't. You really can. She draft Juju Smith 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:31.320 Schuster for that the only reason I obviously came up 0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:33.440 with the team name afterwards. Oh but she didn't just 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:36.720 draft Jus like I'm jud You know I didn't mean 0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:39.400 like that. You know what you know she holds over 0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:41.600 my head is that I told her not the draft Juju, 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:43.400 because she drafted in the fresh She draft the first 0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:45.680 first round Antonio Brown and the second round draft the 0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:48.440 Davante Adams is a ten It's ten tvbr and in 0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:51.240 round three she's just like, got I'm gonna draft Juju. 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:53.560 And I was like, well, yourd of Antonio Brown? What 0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:55.960 are you doing? And she's like, I think he's the 0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:59.720 best player on the board. All right, all right, then 0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:02.120 are let me? Let me host the show with Judy 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:06.520 next year throughout the draft Season's me, what did I do? 0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:08.760 Did I tell her to start the wrong person? He did? 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:12.240 Oh no, she's mad at her start with Marlon Mack 0:15:12.320 --> 0:15:15.880 over Aaron Jones. Oh and she says she's not gonna 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:19.680 do that anymore. Yeah, I stand by my decision. Sorry, Judy, 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:23.560 Hey would have done it myself. There you go. So anyway, 0:15:23.560 --> 0:15:26.000 with Pittsburgh, m Antonio Brown had a good game, as 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:30.160 did Juice miss Schuster. Antonio browns having like Tonio Brown year. 0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:32.680 But I was looking at it like it's it's kind 0:15:32.680 --> 0:15:35.680 of like a weird Antonio Brown years that like he's 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:38.880 not he's not getting as many yards for getting like 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:41.560 his eighty yards per game is like the lowest since 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:43.800 he's been like a superstar player like in the past 0:15:43.840 --> 0:15:46.320 like seven years, Like it's his lowest mark ever, but 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:49.600 he's just scoring more touchdowns. Yeah, Like it's kind of 0:15:49.640 --> 0:15:50.880 like one trade off or the other. It's kind of 0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:53.320 similar to like Larry Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald normally the guy who 0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:56.480 scores a ton of receptions and PPR points. Now all 0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.040 he's doing is catching touchdowns. I just I found it weird. 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:00.840 I mean, obviously, you look, you don't have to spend 0:16:00.840 --> 0:16:03.000 a lot of time talking about Antonio Brown. It's still 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:05.480 a thirteen targets yesterday, but kind of like not your 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:08.840 typical Antonio Brown year. I can't really been through that 0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:11.480 interception with the goal, and that was like the worst 0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:14.200 throw of all time, Like how do you not see 0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:16.360 a guy that big and even if even if that ball, 0:16:16.440 --> 0:16:19.440 even if that ball goes through the defender was like 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:22.400 the receiver anyway. So I'm saying, I don't know. Maybe 0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:25.520 I don't know, and Big Ben, maybe he just plays 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:26.760 bad on the road because he's just like all I 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:28.000 just want to get out of here and get back home, 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:29.200 Like that's what it seemed like. I don't want to 0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:31.000 go I don't want to go to overtime. Let me 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.520 just all right, whatever, flick it. It was bad defensive lineman, 0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:36.600 like whatever, you can have listen, it was bad for Denver. 0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:40.720 On the other side, Courtland Sutton man disaster, a disaster, 0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:44.360 not not been great. I think that's understanding. And one 0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:47.040 catch yesterday no no, but I mean overall since the 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:50.280 since the Damarius Thomas trade, and I tweeted this out yesterday, 0:16:50.480 --> 0:16:53.920 drink uh, he's averaging five targets per games, two point 0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:57.200 three receptions, and just forty nine points seven yards per games. 0:16:57.760 --> 0:17:00.960 Has zero touchdown since the Damarius Thomas It's actually been 0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:04.080 better than Damarius Thomas in Houston, but still has not 0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:07.000 been what we were expecting. I think, honestly, the looking 0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:08.800 at it, you could have expected to let the corners 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:10.479 on the outside for the tals. I've played well. Yes, 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:13.840 Emmanuel Sanders in the slot, had a big game. Philip Lindsay, Man, 0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:15.520 you know we spoke about like, where's he gonna go 0:17:15.640 --> 0:17:18.000 next year? It continues to get it done, dude. We'll 0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:21.119 continue to talk about this game and so much more. Actually, 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:28.240 the BFFs Daily Rhodo dot Com learned from the game's 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:31.920 best DFS players, We don't just give you premier advice. 0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:37.000 We play every day, all major sports, all year round. 0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:41.480 We never stopped industry leading DFS tools and custom projections, 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:45.480 and now the Daily rodo dot com optimized in minutes, 0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:49.320 building optimized line up for cash games and turnings learned 0:17:49.320 --> 0:18:07.720 from the game's best DFS players joined Daily roado dot com. 0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:11.240 I'm actually excited to talk about the Ammie Dolphins thing. Yeah, 0:18:12.240 --> 0:18:15.280 I'm excited too. I got the season under let's keep losing, baby, 0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:20.159 I'm hoping that, uh he's Buffalo Bills and Josh Allen 0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:22.520 get the job done, and it's Miami's the other thing. 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:24.560 Keep them under that six and a half. Actual want 0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:26.080 to with the Broncos. Are gonna move on because like 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:29.120 anything else about the Broncos now, but you're on Sanders 0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:32.520 Like so anyway, um I had a few stay he said, 0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:35.199 all right, So do your think Greg, you want me 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:38.280 to leave? You think the Greg Greg Monologue show. If 0:18:38.320 --> 0:18:40.520 you want you talking about Pat Sherman, how much you 0:18:40.520 --> 0:18:46.200 love him? Your Sherman? Baby, I love you, Yeah, the same, 0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:47.840 Pat Sherman. I didn't you seak one Barkley in the 0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:49.960 second half yesterday let's with the Gies and Eagles. Fine, 0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:52.000 So Pat Sherman didn't get take what we're talking about 0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:55.560 the Dolphins. We're going to very a track now. So 0:18:55.720 --> 0:18:58.440 Pat Shermer. I like Pat Shermer. I think he knows 0:18:58.480 --> 0:19:00.639 what he's doing. I think that he doesn't necessary the 0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:03.840 quarterback to make it happen. Um yesterday, there is he 0:19:03.880 --> 0:19:07.840 explained about the Barkley thing. He explained it in that Yes, 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:10.680 he has to do a better job, obviously, but the 0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:12.680 team did not put themselves into situation to get skew 0:19:12.800 --> 0:19:15.040 market the ball. There are several first down penalties that 0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:17.200 made it first to fifteen quickly. There are a couple 0:19:17.200 --> 0:19:19.600 of thirty eight teens. They only ran twenty plays the 0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:22.160 entire second half. Everyone's gonna kill Sherman for the drive 0:19:22.240 --> 0:19:23.840 that they gave se Kwan off. But you want to 0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:25.760 keep him fresh for for the game. I get man 0:19:26.320 --> 0:19:30.920 keeping fresh for the playoffs. You can't playing two percent 0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:35.080 of the snaps. I mean, I'm not killing him. There 0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:37.640 is man. Christian McCaffrey plays a hundred percent of the snaps. Greig, 0:19:37.680 --> 0:19:40.240 He's gonna he plays every snap. Christ McAffrey plays every 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:42.359 single snap for the Carolina Panthers and just had a 0:19:42.440 --> 0:19:45.320 hundred yards rushing in a hundred yards receiving. Barkley is 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:49.800 a rookie running back rush for a hundred yards on 0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:52.159 thirteen carries this today, there's no excuse for him not 0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:54.760 to get the ball in the second half. And also, 0:19:54.960 --> 0:19:56.720 this is the same New York Giants team that you 0:19:56.760 --> 0:19:59.720 were killing crushing earlier on in the season that was 0:19:59.760 --> 0:20:03.000 throw owing, you know, eight yard passes behind the line 0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:05.640
