Speaker 1: who everybody's playing, but we already know who everybody's playing.

8
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 1: We'll just know when everybody's playing, right, That's what's the

9
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, like from a fantasy standpoint, what matters

10
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:43,520
Speaker 1: most is playoffs. Playoffs, So week fourteen to sixteen, who's

11
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: playing who and how that's gonna sort of impact how

12
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: you draft. Right, We'll also find out, just from a

13
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: curiosity and and you know fans standpoint, how the schedule

14
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 1: is going to look because obviously, uh, you know, with

15
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: with coronavirus and everything going on out there, Uh, you know,

16
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: there's always the possibility that things are delay, that they're

17
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,680
Speaker 1: pushed back. There's been talk that the schedule can be

18
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: collapsed if necessary, that they can do it with no

19
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: boys if they have to. Um So I'm cerious to

20
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: see exactly how they built the schedule in terms of

21
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: like do they have division games clumped at the beginning

22
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: or in or what the deal is? So h that

23
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: part is gonna be and there's also going to be

24
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 1: the flexibility to play on Saturday's. Imagine Number one, please

25
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: let there be football, like not not even from just

26
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: our perspective, like, imagine if there's no football, like the

27
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: the economic impact on this country is going to be devastating.

28
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: This country has already been devastated. So please let there

29
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: be football, Please gob let there be football. But if

30
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: there's no college and it's just the pros have Thursday

31
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: night football, we're gonna have Saturday NFL. We're gonna have

32
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: Sunday nfl 're gonna Monday NFL potentially, Right, it's a

33
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: lot of NFL markets, it's a lot of NFL. I'm

34
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: also just thinking in terms of like the draft, like

35
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: what happens, what happens to the draft? There's no college football?

36
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: How does how does this work? Um? I mean, dude,

37
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: like at this point, do you really think they're gonna

38
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: let colleges start on time? I don't know. I don't think.

39
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 1: I don't think I I think I think we're gonna

40
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: be really hard pressed to get college football. It's gonna

41
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: be hard. There's too many schools, uh, in too many places.

42
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: It's too spread out. It's just really really and and

43
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 1: if campuses aren't open, um, then it's just gonna be

44
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: really really hard. And team sports is going to be

45
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: leaning on what baseball does, I mean to a lesser

46
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: degree against basketball in the playoffs. But like if baseball

47
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: comes back and we already saw come back in Korea. Um,

48
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: if baseball comes back and they don't have any problems

49
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: and it's all good, well, then that's gonna make it

50
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: easier for football because they're gonna have sort of a

51
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: blueprint any any issues with baseball, man um, and that's

52
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 1: gonna be bad. It's gonna be bad. But the NFL

53
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 1: is determined, absolutely determined to try to have a season

54
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 1: as as much more as much as normals possible. Yeah yeah, So, uh,

55
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk some real or Mirag's got a handful

56
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 1: of stories that are floating around in the ether, and uh,

57
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: we'll kind of sift through them to see if there's

58
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: really something there, or if there's if there's fired, or

59
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: if there's really just smoke so we'll kind of talk

60
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: about that as well. I got a big story as

61
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: well to discuss. Before we do that, talk to our

62
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: favor producer seenor Edward L. Murphy Esquire Murphy. What's going

63
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: on them? Uh? You guys wrote a couple of interesting

64
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 1: things about the schedule lease, and I'm thinking like, how

65
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,959
Speaker 1: like maybe you get college football in the spring and

66
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: then think you said Marcus, they would make the draft

67
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: process weird, and then also think about NFL on a

68
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: on a Saturday. I think I personally would love that

69
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: if my team is playing on a Saturday, Uh, just

70
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: because you have the Saturday to watch it and you

71
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: can go out to maybe a bar or whatever. You know,

72
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: obviously if we're allowed to at that point, but go

73
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: out somewhere maybe watch it, and then you have the

74
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: Sunday to kind of decompress and just pop on red

75
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: Zone or something like that and not stressed as much,

76
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: um about that about your team playing there before you

77
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 1: have to go back to like the work week and

78
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: be miserable your team lost, but like three touchdowns or something.

79
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: Well through the Giants fan, I guess that's usually what happens. Um.

80
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you guys with the schedule is

81
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: coming out, is there a team or maybe a division

82
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: that you're most excited to walk into outside of your

83
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: own uh, you know East. So let's say the NFC West. Um,

84
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: that would be my answer as a non as a

85
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: non NFC West fan, I think NFC West is the

86
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: most intriguing division. Yeah, I mean my my immediate thought

87
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: is to go to the a f C West because

88
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a team in a new place to

89
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: the champs. Uh, you know, you've got you've got a

90
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: team in a new place. With the Raiders moving to

91
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: Las Vegas, Denver has gone out and added a whole

92
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: bunch of weapons. Offensively, the Chargers, one way or another

93
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: are going to have a new quarterback. Whether it's Tyrod

94
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: Taylor or Justin Herbert, they're going to have a new quarterback. Um,

95
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: you know. So I think that the the n f

96
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: the a f C West could be kind of interesting

97
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 1: this year. And let's not forget the NFC South because

98
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: Papa Baby Baby Box Saints Atlanta's defense should be better.

99
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: They focused on it in the draft at Carolina. Who

100
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: the hell knows, but that division is going to be

101
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: fun to watch. Man like Brady against Breeze twice a year.

102
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan should be fun. Yeah, that'should that should very

103
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: very much be interesting. So yeah, we'll have the schedule

104
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: out uh this evening, and so we can kind of

105
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: chick that around a little bit, probably next week on

106
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: Tuesday show as well. Let's talk about a big story.

107
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: Let's do the news fresh off of his cameo appearance

108
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: in West World, which just finished the third season. Because

109
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 1: I I didn't even watch the second season, Like I

110
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: think I watched one episode. I'm like, if look, I

111
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: understand people who tapped out, because the first four or

112
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: five episodes of season one really were slow, and so

113
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: like anybody who tapped out, I didn't blame them. Season

114
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: three I thought was really well done. I thought it

115
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 1: was really good the whole first season, and it confused

116
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: the hell out of me at time did watch it,

117
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: and then when the second season came out, I was

118
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: just like there. I go back and forth on it,

119
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: because you know, like sometimes it does help to listen

120
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: to these explainer podcasts or read articles, and sometimes I'm

121
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: like I don't want to have to do homework to

122
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: watch a TV show. Um, but you know I did, uh,

123
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 1: I did grind through it and I did enjoy season three.

124
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: Yeah that was good, even a hard time. Like if

125
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: something could be well done, but if they don't like it,

126
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: they want to kind of pooh poo, And I don't

127
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: think that's fair because it was a world done show

128
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: and and mars Shawn's cameo was awesome and the episodes great.

129
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: Yeah um so. But yeah, Marshaw Lynch was on West World.

130
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 1: But now he might be back in the NFL. Reportedly

131
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 1: his agent is talking to the Seahawks about coming back.

132
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: He played at the end of last season. I think

133
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 1: his his presence was probably more emotional than it was,

134
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 1: you know, a physical when he got on the field.

135
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: He did get some cherries. Uh. He obviously is not

136
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: the same Marshawn Lynch that we saw in his prime

137
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: with Seattle and look fabs if if he does come

138
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 1: back this year, I can't imagine he's going to get

139
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: drafted in a lot of places, maybe anywhere. But does

140
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: this make you worried for Chris Carson and what this

141
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: means for him and that that back I mean, I

142
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: don't like to hear it, No, like because backfield committees

143
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: are the bane of our existence is fantasy, trying to

144
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: figure out who the heck is gonna get, what carries,

145
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: and when they're gonna get him, and it's it's really

146
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: an exercise and futility because you're never going to know.

147
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: Last year, I mean, Lynch obviously played a very very

148
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: very small sample size. He's thirty three years old. Um,

149
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: if you add him into that mix, it just confuses

150
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: what otherwise, to me is a pretty clear backfield. Like

151
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: Chris Carson is projected to be ready in week one.

152
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: That's what Pete Carroll is talking about. Shot Penny has

153
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: rejected to end up being on the pup list, So

154
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: there's going to be a lot of Chris Carson to

155
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:10,679
Speaker 1: start the season. And I feel like Carson could potentially

156
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: be undervalued because if he's coming off of the serious,

157
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: the serious hip injury. Um, if you could get him

158
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: as a flex starter at this point, man, that could

159
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: end up being a really good value because of what

160
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: he showed that he can do last season. He was

161
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: tremendous and he was he was the bell con for Seattle,

162
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: and we know Seattle wants to run the football. So

163
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: if you had Marshawn Lynch in there, to me, it

164
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: means one of two things. One Penny's Penny's knee injury

165
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: is not going to allow him to be back anytime soon.

166
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: Or two, they liked what they saw from Lynch last

167
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 1: season and they want to run a committee because their

168
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: top two backs went down and number two. That makes

169
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,559
Speaker 1: me excited at all. Yeah, that's not excited from a

170
00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective. Yeah, I you know, look and look, this

171
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: is still very much in the talking stages right like,

172
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: nothing has been done officially yet, so we'll see what

173
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: happens there. But um, yeah, it just it just seems

174
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: really bad. Part of me is also wondering will they

175
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: maybe put the ball in Russell Wilson's hands more. I mean,

176
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,959
Speaker 1: they got Tyler Lockett, They're expecting bigger things from DK

177
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: Metcalf this year. They go out and I know, Philip

178
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: Dorset isn't necessarily a sexy name, but it is somebody

179
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: to kind of add some depth to their wide receiver

180
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: corps um. Maybe, maybe possibly they turn this offense over

181
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: to Russell Wilson a little bit more, because that's when

182
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: they were the most exciting and most productive, when they

183
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: just let Russ be russ Um. You know, I know,

184
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: they still want to run the football. But but maybe

185
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: maybe this is a little bit of signaling that the

186
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: times are changing in Seattle. Who knows, um, But you know, hey, look,

187
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: if this doesn't work out, then then at least we

188
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: know Marshawn has an an acting career in front of him.

189
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: So here we have. So I got a handful of

190
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: stories that I saw recently that have direct fantasy impact.

191
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: But we all know that the coaches throw out smoke screens,

192
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 1: they throw out misdirection. Um. Some coaches, you know, I think,

193
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: like sort of leading us around by the nose just

194
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 1: to see what what sort of reactions they can get.

195
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 1: So maybe some of these stories are real fabbs. Maybe

196
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: they aren't. Let's figure it out. The first one Frank

197
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: Reich coming out and saying that Jonathan Taylor and Marlon

198
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: Mack will serve as a one two punch in the

199
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 1: Colts backfield. I know we've sort of been trying to

200
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: figure out how this thing works since the Colts drafted

201
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: Taylor in the second round. Uh, we just talked about

202
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,599
Speaker 1: a committee potentially coming in Seattle. Does this sound and

203
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 1: do you believe there could be a committee coming in Indianapolis? Now?

204
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 1: See arcas. This is this is the the general progression

205
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: of um A running backs value. Right after the draft

206
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 1: players drafted, the industry goes bananas. Everybody loves Holy cow,

207
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: this guy is gonna be awesome, and then the coaches

208
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 1: come in, we really like this player. He's not gonna

209
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: be given that starting job, you know, sort of on

210
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: a silver plate. They've got to earn it. They have

211
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: to earn it. So when you hear about a scenario

212
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: like you're mentioning with Taylor, Mack is going to play

213
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 1: like Johnath. Taylor is not gonna be a true featured

214
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 1: back in the truest sense of the word. He's not

215
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 1: going to be Ezekiel Elliott. He's not going to be

216
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 1: se Kwon Barkley. He I would think he's going to

217
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: get the majority of the touches. But Mac is going

218
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: to play, and he's a good player. So don't expect

219
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor to come out and be an RB one.

220
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: He's not. I mean, he's gonna be an RB two

221
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: to me, to me at best, unless Mac goes down

222
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 1: with some sort of injury. You know, by the way,

223
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: you've also gotten to he minds or gets the law

224
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: out of the back field. So I'm Johnathan Taylor. I

225
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: love long term. Max is a free agent after the season,

226
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: and Taylor is gonna end up being the bell call

227
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: for a long long time in Indianapolis. But as a rookie,

228
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: you have to temper your expectations. He's an RB two.

229
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: I don't know that his ceiling is high enough for

230
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: him to be an RB one. There's a lot of

231
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: talent at the top of that position, and Mack is

232
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: going to get his share of the workload. You know,

233
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: the name you mentioned to Nike Hinds is really sort

234
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: of the fly in the ointment in this whole thing,

235
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: because again, even he was the pass catcher, you know,

236
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: when the Colts were playing from behind, when they were

237
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: in that hurry up offense, it was Hines that was

238
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: on the field because they just didn't throw the football

239
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 1: to to Marlon Mack all that much. And Jonathan Taylor

240
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: was not a huge pass catcher at Wisconsin. All the

241
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: things that he did when he was with the Badgers,

242
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: catching passes was really not one of them. And I

243
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: don't imagine that all of a sudden Frank Ranks gonna

244
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: bring him in and asked, not only will Frank Reich

245
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 1: not just bring him in and ask that out of him.

246
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers is not going to to wait around for

247
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor to learn to become a pass catcher, right.

248
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 1: We we know this about Philip Verse. He is not

249
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: necessarily the most patient guy when it comes to that,

250
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: and especially now that he really is on the tail

251
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: end of his career, I don't think he's going to wait.

252
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: So if Nie Hinds is the guy who can get

253
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 1: that job done catching the football, he's going to be

254
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: the guy that's on the field, and and that really

255
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: does impact both of those guys. Now, part of me

256
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,599
Speaker 1: also thinks that this is sort of of, you know,

257
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,199
Speaker 1: the things we hear in late April, early May, and

258
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: when we get to July and August, you know, if

259
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 1: we are to have training camp, if we're going to

260
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: get these guys on the field, that at some point

261
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: we start to hear those training camp stories of how

262
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor looks so much better, uh and and how

263
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor deserves a starting Maybe this is just me

264
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 1: sort of talking myself into it, but I feel like

265
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 1: that's also the progression, right that, like we start hearing

266
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: these these camp hype stories but the work he's you know,

267
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 1: getting all this work and maybe pushing the veteran out

268
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,199
Speaker 1: of a job. I don't know. And what one stat

269
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: that I think fantasy owners need to keep in mind. Um,

270
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,719
Speaker 1: last year, Philip Rivers as a starter targeted backs out

271
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 1: of the backfield as pass catchers more than any quarterback,

272
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,599
Speaker 1: more than anyone. That's Austin Neckler, that's Melvin Gordon. So

273
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: that's also behind a crappy offensive line. So I wouldn't

274
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 1: really take that into consideration and think, well, this is

275
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: to be all end all and he's gonna be thrown

276
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: in the backs a lot. I don't necessarily think that's

277
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: that's the case. But with Hynes and Marlon mack and there,

278
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: both guys are pretty good pass catchers and and certainly

279
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: better than John and Taylor. So um, I would, I

280
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: would really, I would really tap the brakes on the

281
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: ceiling for j T. As a rookie. I like him.

282
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 1: RB two. Sure, it's not going to become the next Seek,

283
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: He's not going to become the next Sake one. It's

284
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: just not gonna happen, not right, especially with Marlin, not

285
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: with Marlon mix still there. It's definitely exactly, yes, sir,

286
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: um more running back talk involving another rookie. General manager

287
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: of the Chiefs, Brett Veach says Damian Williams is still

288
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: the starter in Kansas City, but Clyde Edwards hi layer

289
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 1: can quote compete for playing time. This is another one

290
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: fors And even when this when the Chiefs drafted c

291
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: H a lot of people myself included sort of when

292
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: nuts over the praising my hand, uh, you know, and

293
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: we talked about him being the number one overall dynasty

294
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: rookie pick. Uh. It looks like Brett Veach has thrown

295
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: a whole kegful of cold water on on all of them.

296
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: But see, I feel like I feel like that again.

297
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: It's the same thing. Like, yeah, of course, Damian Williams

298
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: was a Super Bowl m VP candidate, you know for

299
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. And over the last couple of years, Damian Williams,

300
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: when he's been healthy, markets has been pretty good. Like

301
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: I mean, last year they went like more of a committee,

302
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: you know, they brought in Leshaw McCoy and that kind

303
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: of screped things up. And you know, Williams in terms

304
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: of his durability could potentially be an issue at the

305
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 1: end of the day, they're not gonna hand the starting

306
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: role to a rookie in that scenario. It's not like

307
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 1: you're Zeke or s Quan. Where you're coming in there

308
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: ain't nobody else. Okay, like you're going to be the guy.

309
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: The Chiefs had a guy who was very successful. And

310
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: I'll tell you something right now, if Damian williams success

311
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: in the statuets and on the gridiron isn't enough to

312
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: make you realize how good Andy reads off is for

313
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: running backs, nothing will because he couldn't do did Lee

314
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 1: poo in Miami. He was a backup there. He goes

315
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: to Kansas City, he's putting up good numbers. So like

316
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: I feel like people need to again Clyde Edward Layer

317
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: is gonna end up leading that team in backfield touches.

318
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: It's a matter of time. They're not going to give

319
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 1: him the starting job on a silver plate. That's just

320
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: not how it's done in these scenarios. Because the veteran,

321
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: hey man, he helped them win a championship. The respect

322
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: is there for him. Now Williams is a free agent

323
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: after and then hell, this guy's the limit for for

324
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: the Glide. But this season, you have to expect that

325
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna lose at least some touches to Damian Williams

326
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: in some way, shape or form. Maybe it's earlier in

327
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: the season, and as the season goes on that will

328
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: change and he'll become more of the guy. But coaches

329
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: are not going to come out and give a kid

330
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 1: the starting job without him earning it, especially when there

331
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: is a invent of incumbent veteran who's still playing well

332
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 1: ahead of him on the depth chart. Just not gonna happen. Yeah,

333
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: and look, and we've talked about this before too. I

334
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: do wonder how much of this is also going to

335
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 1: be impacted by the fact that there are no O

336
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 1: t A s uh. There's not gonna be that opportunity

337
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: for those guys to get work. I mean, you know,

338
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: like I know, they're gonna do some distance learning, uh,

339
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: you know, kind of some virtual uh virtual meetings and

340
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: and that sort of thing, virtual workouts, but it's not

341
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,199
Speaker 1: going to be the same as being able to get

342
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 1: out there, put the pads on and get some actual

343
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: work in. And so that that, I think, in a

344
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 1: lot of situation is going to give a lot of

345
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 1: these veterans sort of a leg up over the rookies

346
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: because they know the system, they know how this works,

347
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: and these guys are still coming in to learn. So

348
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: um that again, these are all the things that we've

349
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: never had to think about before because you know, the world,

350
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,919
Speaker 1: the world was one way and another exactly. I mean,

351
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: they can they can give all these kids playbooks and

352
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: they can study their butts off until you get out

353
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: on the field man, and and get a feel for

354
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: your offensive line as a running back, and get a

355
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: feel for your quarterback as a wide receiver, and get

356
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: a feel for your wide receivers as a quarterback. Like

357
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 1: you know, a report has to be built and we're

358
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: we're in uncharted territory as far as that goes right now. Yeah, absolutely, um, alright, Well,

359
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: more running back news. It's funny how much of this

360
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 1: censers around running backs. It wasn't intentional, It just sort

361
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: of happened that black Uh Sean McVeigh was reported as saying, quote,

362
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: we've got three really good facts. And again another rookie

363
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 1: involved here, right, cam Akers was one that a lot

364
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: of us liked, like the landing spot for him and

365
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: what he could be uh, you know, the the Darrell

366
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: Henderson trained depending on the week, is either full or empty.

367
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: Right now it's it's more on the empty side. Uh.

368
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 1: And then there's still Malcolm Brown hanging around there, a

369
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,440
Speaker 1: guy who can get some touches. Uh. This look, I

370
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: think we're already sort of expecting Acres and Henderson to

371
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: kind of, you know, sort of split in some form

372
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,919
Speaker 1: or fashion the workload in Los Angeles. Now, if we're

373
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 1: talking Malcolm Brown in the mix, this, this looks like

374
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: it could be really frustrated. If Sean McVeigh is true

375
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 1: to his word, it's so here's a few things for

376
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:57,959
Speaker 1: the cam Akers. Truth is out there, and I love

377
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: the talent, I really do, and I think long to

378
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: m he could end up being a pretty nice piece

379
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: for your fantasy football team. Keep this in mind, those guys. Okay,

380
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: so Acres is not going to be a featured back

381
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,239
Speaker 1: as a rookie. SnO, I mean McVeigh is is going

382
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: to go committee. Darrell Henderson is going to be utilized

383
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: in certain aspects of the offense. Malcolm Brown could end

384
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: up being as utilized in certain aspects of the offense.

385
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 1: But if you look back at the numbers from last season,

386
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,160
Speaker 1: Malcolm Brown got more touches than Darrell Henderson. So we're

387
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: all talking about Darrell Henderson as like the guy, but

388
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: maybe it's Malcolm Brown. Like if they didn't go running

389
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: back uh in the draft, maybe it would have been

390
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: a committee between Henderson and Malcolm Brown, and maybe Malcolm

391
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 1: Brown is the starter there. Also, keep this in mind.

392
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 1: As much as we like Acres as a versatile back,

393
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: and he was pretty versually at twenty eight catches in

394
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,239
Speaker 1: his final season at Florida State, when you look at

395
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: the numbers from last season, no quarterback in the National

396
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,719
Speaker 1: Football League through the ball to his backs less than

397
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 1: Jared Goff. Eight point five percent of his past attempts

398
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,719
Speaker 1: went to the running backs. Two reasons One, He's got

399
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: a lot of good wide receivers and Tyler Higbee came

400
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 1: on late in that season and it was fantastic. And

401
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: the Rams were not as good as a team last season.

402
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: So the Rams aren't a team at least what we

403
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 1: saw last season that threw the ball of their backs.

404
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: I mean Hill, Todd Gurley. You know, this is a

405
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: guy who can catch seventy passes. He you know, he

406
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: wasn't even close to that. So as much as I

407
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 1: like Acres. Long term, you have to tap the brakes

408
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 1: a little bit on him. And I've seen him go

409
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: high in redrafts. I've seen him go in the fourth

410
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,959
Speaker 1: round and redrafts, and to me, that's a little that's

411
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: a little bananas. Um, good player, really good long term

412
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: outlook this season unless he is dynamic and ridiculous and

413
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 1: just just blows the doors off a Henderson and Knlocolm

414
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 1: Brown in camp, which is possible. I don't see a

415
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: featured Todd Gurley roll for him. Yeah, I don't. I don't.

416
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna see that in a Sean

417
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 1: McVeigh offense for a while. I mean, unless you get

418
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: one of those you know, I hate this term, but

419
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: the quote unquote generational running backs. Um, you know, I

420
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 1: hate it because I feel like we've had multiple generational

421
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: running backs within the last five years, which you know,

422
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 1: seems to defeat the purpose. But um, unless one of

423
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: those guys falls in in the Rams lap sometime soon,

424
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: I just don't think you're going to see anybody get

425
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 1: that sort of workload. I think I think the Rams

426
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 1: are gonna go with multiple backs uh and and Acres

427
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: and and Henderson and Brown are probably that, you know,

428
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 1: the only thing I would like to go back, and

429
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: I'm sure somebody has done this or it's easy enough

430
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: to go back and look what the uh sort of

431
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: the the line graph of rookie running back A d

432
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: p s are from the time you know they're drafted, uh,

433
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 1: because it's just seems like there's a big spike early

434
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: right and there, and then you know, then the stories

435
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: come out, then we see them working in training camp

436
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 1: and not but you know they're bad necessarily, but reality

437
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: sort of sets in a little bit that you know,

438
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: maybe there's another guy there, or maybe they're not coming

439
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 1: along as fast as anticipated, and then that that number

440
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: sort of levels off a little bit. Uh. And I

441
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 1: feel like we're seeing that with you know, with Taylor,

442
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: with Edwards Lair, with cam Makers that right now we're

443
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: in that spike phase where like the a dps are

444
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: really high and then by the time we get to

445
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: like August, it will sort of level off a little bit. Yeah.

446
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 1: And I'm seeing that a lot too, um, because I've

447
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: been doing a bunch of I did a mock draft

448
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: for Sports Illustrated. Uh, we did one for Serious Sex

449
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 1: m last week. And yeah, I mean like Jon and

450
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 1: Taylor and and the glide Swift is more like in

451
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: a twelve team league. I've seen him go like fifth round,

452
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: which I feel like it's kind of that's kind of

453
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: where he belongs. Yeah, but Taylor, I've seen go as

454
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:42,120
Speaker 1: high as the second round I've taken. I've taken the glide.

455
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: I took him in the third round in the draft.

456
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: I've seen him go as high as the second round.

457
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,239
Speaker 1: And some of the some of the Rockey wide receivers too,

458
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: like like Jalen Reagor. I love the talent long term.

459
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: I can't see a scenario unless everybody ahead of him

460
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 1: gets hurt that he's gonna go out and have eight

461
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: hundred yards in seven or eight touchdowns. It's a rookie

462
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, but I've seen him go as like the

463
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 1: second or third wide receiver in a redraft. It no,

464
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: I know, it's insane. People really like, people really like

465
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 1: what he could potentially bring to the table. But I

466
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 1: just don't get it, because, like, the Eagles have a

467
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: hundred wide receivers right now, and they're gonna run a

468
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: lot of twelve because they have two great tight ends.

469
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: So whatever the case may be, I feel like long

470
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: term that a kid like that's going to be much better.

471
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: But you're right, right now, everyone's yoked. They love the rookies.

472
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 1: There are certainly rookies that I love. They're certainly rookies

473
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: that you love. But I feel like once we get

474
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: into July and August, depending on when we start drafting

475
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: teams for real with the coronavirus, it'll calm down somewhat. Sure. Yeah, yeah,

476
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 1: well we'll see, we'll see it. We'll see a level

477
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 1: lot a little bit. Um Over to Pittsburgh, longtime Steelers

478
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: beat writer Ed Bouschette rights that the Steelers are expected

479
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 1: to quote cut back on James Connor's carries. Now, look, Connor,

480
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: when he's been healthy and has been on the field,

481
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: has been very productive. The problem has been he just

482
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,439
Speaker 1: has not been able to stay healthy throughout his career. Uh.

483
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 1: You know, we we talked earlier in the week about

484
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,439
Speaker 1: the rumor that the Steelers might not resign Juju Smith Schuster.

485
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,199
Speaker 1: Now they're talking about cutting back on James Conner's carries. Uh,

486
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: and FABS, You've mentioned multiple times that this whole thing

487
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 1: sort of hinges on Ben Roethlisberger staying healthy and being

488
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: out there for the Steelers. There's a lot of things

489
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: now that make me really nervous about drafting Pittsburgh players.

490
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 1: And I feel like that that should, if if it

491
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: hasn't already, should sort of suppress their a DP s

492
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, no question about that. And one

493
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 1: of the one of the surprising things for me is that,

494
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe the Steelers do it, but like they

495
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: don't have a quality backup quarterback. And you know, when

496
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: your quarterback is in his late thirties, you know, coming

497
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 1: off of a season ending injury to his elbow in Nols,

498
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: I mean, like that's it's troublesome. I don't know why

499
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 1: they haven't going out and they didn't draft the quarterback

500
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 1: or they didn't pick up a quarterback. Um, you know,

501
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 1: we said it a million times, we thought Jamis Wilson

502
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 1: would have been a really good fit for this offense.

503
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: Uh should should Ben Roethlisberger go down with an injury?

504
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: I mean, they're not a team that's gonna go after

505
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 1: Cam Newton. Cam Newton is not going anywhere where he

506
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: can't be for a starting jobs, So that's not gonna happen,

507
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, do they bring in Joe Flackle

508
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: that ain't much better, and you know, it's it's like

509
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: like I don't even know who they would bring in

510
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: this point. So in terms of Connor, though, maybe cutting

511
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: back on his touches and and you know, bush I

512
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: didn't say that it's a significant decrease, but maybe cutting

513
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 1: back is sort of what the Steelers needed to do

514
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: to keep him on the field for fourteen games or

515
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 1: sixteen games, because he is clearly the best back they

516
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: have on the roster, and he has shown flashes of brilliance,

517
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 1: especially when Levian Bell held out. The kid was amazing.

518
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: He helped people in fantasy leagues that season and they

519
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: did draft anything Anthony McFarland. But he's like he's like

520
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: my eye. He's like five ft eight, you know, he's

521
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: he's he's like over two hunter pounds. But um, you

522
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: know he's not going to be a feature back. So

523
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 1: and you've also got you know, Benny still there as

524
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,959
Speaker 1: well and Jolen Samuel, so it's a little bit crowded.

525
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 1: But James Connor, I'd love to have him as a

526
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,160
Speaker 1: as a flex that that's where i'd be comfort will

527
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: get him. I don't know if I can get him

528
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,360
Speaker 1: as a flex in a twelve team league. That's where

529
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,199
Speaker 1: I'd be comfortable get him. I think most leagues, Marcus,

530
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: where where you're not in a ten team league, he's

531
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 1: probably gonna end up being like a low RB two. Yeah,

532
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 1: I mean so that I mean saying that then, I

533
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 1: mean in a normal twelve team league, you're not touching

534
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: Samuel's or Snell right now right there there, they're still

535
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: in the waibor wire. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, no question about that.

536
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 1: I don't know that. I mean, out of the three,

537
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: you might get one that gets picked, you know, in

538
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: the late rounds, whether it's Samuel, if you're in a

539
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 1: PPR league, you know, it could be Snell. I don't

540
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 1: know that McFarland is gonna get drafted in redrafts because

541
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: there's so much confusion. But at this point, James Conner

542
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 1: is a safe, high end flex starter if you can

543
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: get him there. And that's sort of the scenario with

544
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 1: like a Levian Bell as well at this point, after

545
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: you know, the Jets signed Frank Gore, which we talked

546
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 1: about earlier in the week. Yeah. Um, last last story,

547
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,640
Speaker 1: I hear we can do real mirage on Ron Rivera.

548
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: I was quoted as saying Antonio Gibson has quote a

549
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 1: skill set like Christian McCaffrey. Now, I have sort of

550
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 1: pegged Antonio Gibson as a late you know, an end

551
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: of draft dart throw, that guy who maybe could work

552
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 1: his way onto the field. He's sort of almost a hybrid,

553
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 1: maybe a positionless guy. You know. I've seen him listed

554
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: as a running back. I've seen him listed as a

555
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 1: wide receiver. He can do a little bit of everything.

556
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: I think fabs in Washington. He probably will will have

557
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: more success as a receiver, just because they've got a

558
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: lot of running backs there that they've got to try

559
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 1: to get touches for. But a wide receiver positions a

560
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: little more open um. This feels like definite hype here.

561
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 1: I mean saying he's got a skill set like Christian McCaffrey.

562
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: That's one of those things that gets everybody. You know,

563
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: your eyes get big, you get excited. I want good

564
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 1: things for him. I think you could be exciting. I'm

565
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 1: not falling into this trap. I mean saying that he

566
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,680
Speaker 1: has the skill set of Christian McCaffrey. What he's he

567
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 1: can catch the ball out of the backfield and he

568
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 1: can run between the tackles. Like what I mean, like,

569
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: what exactly about McCaffrey is that it I I can

570
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: I can argue that there's there's there's plenty of running

571
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 1: backs in the league that can catch the ball out

572
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: of the backfield and run between the tackles um as

573
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: effectively as Christian McCaffrey. Maybe not as a receiver, but

574
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 1: pretty close. I talked to Darius Guys about this and

575
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 1: we kind of agreed that he's probably gonna end up

576
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 1: being more of a receiver than he is a runner.

577
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: In Washington, as you mentioned, they have ten running backs

578
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 1: or whatever it is. So and you know this again,

579
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 1: you have you have to like see through the coach

580
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 1: speak and see through the excitement and then look at reality.

581
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 1: And the reality is that Antonio Gibson is not going

582
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 1: to see enough touches to end up being fantasy relevant, right,

583
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: I mean, like, I don't know, I don't know if

584
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: I don't know, um, if I'm crazy here because he

585
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: just got compared to Christian McCaffrey. Maybe Rivera is a

586
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: little crazy to do that. I get it. He's very

587
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: talented and the Redskins are gonna use him as an

588
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: offensive weapon, whether he's a running back or a wide receiver.

589
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 1: I think they gave him a number in the twenties,

590
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: so that would make him a running back. But it

591
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 1: doesn't matter at this point. So is he worth a

592
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: look in dynasty? Heck yeah? Is he worth a look

593
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 1: in redrafts? Probably not? So the the the continuation of

594
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: that quote, they pulled it up here. This is a

595
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: very versatile young football player that we really think is

596
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: going to be a guy that can get on the

597
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: field for us early and contribute. I mean, look, it

598
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 1: sounds exciting, it really does it this? You know, so

599
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 1: this sounds like this sounds like years ago, um when

600
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: the Lakers were still playing at the Forum, and I

601
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: remember Shaquille O'Neil had been injured for a long time.

602
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: It was like finally making his return. And so, like

603
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: I had a friend in town, we decided, Hey, let's

604
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,479
Speaker 1: go see the Lakers shacks back tonight. It's gonna be great. Uh,

605
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: tickets were sold out. But we get there and a

606
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,959
Speaker 1: guy is selling tickets out front and he's like, hey, man,

607
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: you gotta buy these. Like they're there their second row

608
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 1: right across from the Lakers bench. We're like, oh yeah,

609
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: I mean like we were both young, Like I was

610
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: like I was twenty two. My friend might have been

611
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: twenty three. Oh sweet, So we pay for these tickets? Uh,

612
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: And I would saying this, the dude didn't lie. They

613
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 1: were I can row right across the Laker bench in

614
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: the upper deck. Like he left that part out. He

615
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: left that part out of his little spiel. And I

616
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: sort of feel like this too, Like okay, Antonio Gibson,

617
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 1: like young versatile football player that can get on the

618
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 1: field and contribute maybe in third down situations when we're

619
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 1: trailing in the fourth quarter. Like I feel like there's

620
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 1: a part of this that Ron Rivera is sort of

621
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: leaving out. And I that's why I'm not willing to

622
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: get sucked in all that. That sounds like that episode

623
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 1: of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Where do you remember that when Eddie,

624
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: do you watch Curb? I don't even remember if you

625
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: watch Curb or not, but like you remember that episode

626
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: where him and Jeff were with the with the NBC

627
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: executive and they got him Lakers tickets and they're thinking,

628
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: oh man, this is gonna be great, and then they

629
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: go and they're like literally in the upper deck of

630
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: Staples Center, like looking down at all the celebrities who

631
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 1: have great seats. But by the way, I had Jeff

632
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 1: Garland on my serious X Time show. I love dude,

633
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: he is so much fun. He uh he's he's creative

634
00:30:55,480 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: with his language, but so much fun. Man. I love

635
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: Jeff's He's awesome. He's awesome. So uh yeah, it's fun

636
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: fun dude. Um between that and uh, what's the those

637
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: show that the Goldbergs, I mean he's great and oh Eddie.

638
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: He also hinted that there's gonna be another season of Curb.

639
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: I mean as good as the last one was. I'm

640
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: I'm all for it. I mean I think they are.

641
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 1: They're in a good path right now. Yeah, no doubt. Um, sorry,

642
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 1: I got off. I got or I mean I feel

643
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 1: like that. That's what I like, you know, because I

644
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 1: was trying to figure out a way to end this

645
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: show without just, you know, saying, hey, we're gonna talking

646
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: about stories like um, since we've we've all been in

647
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: quarantine for a while now, and I think we've all,

648
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 1: you know, sort of exhausted the or most of the

649
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 1: list of things we're watching. Is there have you guys

650
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 1: found in me? Like hidden hidden things on on Netflix

651
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: or Hulutch so so Little Fires Everywhere is really good.

652
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: I've seen parts of it, like, you know, really good

653
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:54,719
Speaker 1: get on in the background doing stuff, and so I've

654
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: I feel like I've pieced together the whole story. Um.

655
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: We watched a show on Netflix, All the Stranger that

656
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: was very good. There were times where it's a little

657
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 1: bit slow, but I ended up being good. It's it's amazing,

658
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: like how many of these British shows like that around

659
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: that are really good, Like the broad Church. I mean,

660
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 1: like the Church is really good. What's the other one?

661
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: And now I can't remember. I can't remember the damn

662
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 1: name of it, but it was it was so good.

663
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 1: Off to look it up, but it was. It was

664
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: like a police It was a story about police detective

665
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: um man and woman. The storyline was great. Now it's

666
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: going to drive me nuts and I have to try

667
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 1: and find it um but it was. It was really

668
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 1: really good. One of the actors that the male lead

669
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: in it was the guy I think he was in

670
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: the Suicide Squad. He was like the suicide Yeah, it's

671
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: super dark. If you haven't watched that, yeah it is.

672
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: So it's so I think it's like three seasons. The

673
00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: first two were regular and then the third season was

674
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 1: kind of like a little bit short, and the first

675
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: season the best season. It's awesome. This is pretty good.

676
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: The thirst season is pretty good. But the first season, dude,

677
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 1: watch it. It's really really good. It's very dark, it is,

678
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: but it's really good. All right. I will say that

679
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: if you like, if you like terrible movies, just like

680
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: flat out terrible, like so bad that they're good movies. Uh.

681
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: There's a thing on Netflix called China Salesman. Um. It

682
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 1: basically story is about these you know, engineers from different

683
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 1: countries trying to provide like cell phone service to like

684
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: you know, remote places in Africa. Like that part of

685
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: the story is not exciting and it's sort of dull.

686
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: But what makes it great is that Mike Tyson and

687
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: Steven Seagal are in it and they fight each other,

688
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: um and it's it's got, It's got Mike Tyson. It

689
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: has Mike Tyson doing an African accent, which is as

690
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 1: hilarious as you would think it would be. Uh, and

691
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 1: Steven Seagal and like early on in the movie, like

692
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 1: they encounter each other in some sort of like diner

693
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: or restaurant or something like that, and they've got beef

694
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,959
Speaker 1: and they fight. Um, you know, so it's like Mike

695
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 1: who's not a great actor, and Steven Seagal, who was

696
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: very much out of shape, heavy and wigged. Steven Steven

697
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 1: seals gotta have a wig that that that haring right right,

698
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 1: It's like it's like Jet Black. I mean it's like

699
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: it's not real, Like no one has hair that that

700
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: is that dark. But yeah, China Salesman. Like most of

701
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,360
Speaker 1: it is trash and and and and just like whatever.

702
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 1: But but at least for the Mike Tyson accent and

703
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: the the terrible fight scene between him and Steven Seagald,

704
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 1: that's at least worth showing up for. And it's on Netflix,

705
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:35,720
Speaker 1: so it's essentially free. I've been watching so much stuff

706
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,399
Speaker 1: that I feel like my brain goes into critic mode

707
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: and I'm like judging everything way too harshly because I'm

708
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 1: not spacing anything out. But I have watched Dave on Hulu,

709
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: which was awesome. I think it was so funny, um

710
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: high fidelity, like the remake. They did a show version

711
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 1: of them show. I love I love the movie. I

712
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 1: loved it. I think Joey Kravits is great. Um, you

713
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,879
Speaker 1: liked the sidecar there? It is that like another really

714
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,760
Speaker 1: good show. Um, I watched I Binged Out of Banks

715
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 1: on Netflix. It's more of like a young adult drama,

716
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: but it was super fun. It's kind of like The

717
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 1: Goonies meets like Bloodline if that makes sense. Uh. Someone

718
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,720
Speaker 1: described it to me as, uh, the O C meets

719
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: Ozark the O C. Yeah, that that also worked. Yeah.

720
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: I just said, like it's a lot of family issues.

721
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,840
Speaker 1: It takes place and obviously in Out of Banks, North Carolina,

722
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: and you like there's a treasure hunt kind of murder

723
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: thing going on, but that it's it's a fun, like

724
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: easy to watch show. Um like, yeah, we talked about

725
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 1: west World recently. I mean it was Westworld was okay.

726
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 1: Like The Last Dance for me has honestly been the

727
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 1: best thing I've I've watched that has been appointment television.

728
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 1: But um, like there's just so much stuff that you

729
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 1: watch it and you kind of like, I don't know

730
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: if that Like, Oh, Hollywood just came out on Netflix

731
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: and I was super excited for that because Ryan Murphy's

732
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: awesome and everything he does, like whether it's you know,

733
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: he did Niptuck years ago in Glee and he's done

734
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 1: the American horror story stuff like he's the and uh.

735
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 1: And I thought it was going to be more of

736
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,840
Speaker 1: just a broader picture of Hollywood at that time, like

737
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: post World War two era, but it's very it's like

738
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 1: a micro view of like only a certain few characters,

739
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: and I guess they're basing it off of real events

740
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,400
Speaker 1: and stuff. But it's okay. It's just like again, like

741
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 1: my critic brain turns on and just like I get

742
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,919
Speaker 1: bored and I want to find something else to watch.

743
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:25,320
Speaker 1: And Money Heist actually the that show, it's a foreign

744
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 1: show that they did watch the first episode. It's it's

745
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 1: pretty wild. Um, they definitely did not need to do

746
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 1: a part three and four, right, That was the thing.

747
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: I so like when I pick a show to binge watch,

748
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 1: you know, I go and see how many seasons it is,

749
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 1: and like I watched the first episode of Money Highs

750
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 1: and I'm like, how do they get four seasons out

751
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 1: of it? Right? Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. The

752
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: most binge able shows, I will Outer Banks and I

753
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: think Dave or High Fidelity probably on Hulu. Those are

754
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 1: like the top, Like I gotta watch the next one,

755
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,439
Speaker 1: keep going over and over and if you haven't watched

756
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: The Morning Show, that's really good. That's on Apple. And

757
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 1: then also on Apple is Amazing Stories. Marcus, she would

758
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 1: like that for sure. It's the it's the reboot of

759
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:11,879
Speaker 1: the like Amazing Stories from like that. And they're also

760
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: it's not on Netflix. Um, I'm not sure where it is,

761
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,520
