Speaker 1: Dan Buyer on Fox. This show executive produced by Lee

29
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 1: the Lap with the Bunchet help from Lee Mayak and

30
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: one Mike Lingard Mike. Week four gave us a Monday

31
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: night doubleheader, gave us a coaching change in the National

32
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: Football League, and gave us a bunch of points in

33
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: the National Football League, which seems to be the theme

34
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: for the first four weeks in the season. But Week

35
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: four absolutely positively no different. Even on a night where

36
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: offenses weren't necessarily sharp on Monday night football, we still

37
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: got points from teams, right, We still got o our

38
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: big performances. And look, Patrick Mahomes gets credited with two

39
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: touchdowns that were extended handoffs. All right, gadget plays, but

40
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: they all count just the same. We watched Aaron Rodgers

41
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 1: move up and down the field. We'll talk about the

42
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: hero of the day. Uh, they're a little known tight

43
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: end who becomes a superstar. No DeVante at like the

44
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: star power was out right, No Cam Newton because of

45
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 1: COVID in in one game and then you talk about

46
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 1: the nightcap. Juleo Jones is in and then he's out.

47
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: All the all the stars were on the injury list.

48
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: Some made it, some didn't, some didn't finish and it

49
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: just a crazy week. And the Bill O'Brien thing, I

50
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: could do ninety minutes on that standing on my head.

51
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 1: But point scolore and once again, penalties are non existence.

52
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,399
Speaker 1: Teams are allowed to have fourteen to twenty play drives

53
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: and we're not seeing the holding calls and other things

54
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: that were used to be setting those those efforts. They

55
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: just keep moving forward. It's kind of fun to watch,

56
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: but frustrating as hell. If you're a former player, I'm

57
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: sure going you know what they used to call hold.

58
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 1: They gotta play like that. I lost touchdown after touchdown

59
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: and opportunities and you know, blood pressure checks. B O

60
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: B is b y E out of Houston. We will

61
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 1: get into that, but I do have to say this?

62
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: Someone on this show recommended playing Robert Tonyan on our

63
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: last episode and with the week that I had, I

64
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: know it's sure's heck, wasn't me you on this episode

65
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: or on this podcast in our last episode, episode eight

66
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: leading into into week four with the majority of the

67
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: games outside of the Thursday Night contest, you said get

68
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: Robert Tonyan, and Robert Tonyan came through big time for

69
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: the green Bay Packers. And if you listen to Mike, Uh,

70
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: congratulations to you. But why were you high on Tanyan coming?

71
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: And just for the lack of Green Bay receivers or

72
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: what gave you the Robert Tonyan bug? I think the

73
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: two factors right, receivers hurt the core injury to Lazard

74
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: at Davante Adams being a game time decision. As we know,

75
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: he took his shot at the training staff on Twitter

76
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: on Monday morning uh and quickly deleted said tweet. But

77
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: Tanya had scored back to back weeks for all of

78
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: the attempts down field, and Rogers has pushed the ball

79
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: down field a little more than we have seen the

80
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 1: last couple of years. The running backs and tight ends

81
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: have been the focal point right. I mean, Davante Adams

82
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 1: is always gonna grab his fifteen targets when he's on

83
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 1: the field, but when it comes to the red zone,

84
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: and certainly tonight with the injuries, you've just seen the

85
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: running backs and tight end play a huge role. And

86
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: for Tanyan, could you expect six and three? Hell no,

87
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: this is a guy that at Indiana State Dan they

88
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 1: couldn't have a pro day because he's the only guy.

89
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 1: So he went up to Northwestern. It was training with

90
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: the Northwestern guys for on their pro day. I kid

91
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: you on. I was a bunch of Chicago writers had

92
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: written about it at the time, and those articles were

93
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: popping up, and then a bunch of the scribes in

94
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: real time going I just remember looking at him like

95
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 1: he didn't fit in right, he was just all right,

96
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 1: what's he doing? Who is this guy? And sure enough

97
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: there he is a star on Monday Night Football? And

98
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: now George his friendship with George Kittle was made mentioned

99
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: on the broadcast as well, and he put up Kiddle

100
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,919
Speaker 1: like numbers in week four. One other point from Monday

101
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: Night and then then we'll move on to to what's

102
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: happening in the National Football League in the loss. We

103
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: know the Patriots obviously Brian Hoyer was atrocious, especially with

104
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: the decision making on the sack at the end of

105
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: the first half, and a lot of stuff, and they

106
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: moved to Jared'stidham. The question is, and it has been

107
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: for the last one of years and in fantasy football,

108
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: is that Patriots backfield Sony Michelle not playing? You know,

109
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: Rex burkehead at the big game a week ago, in

110
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: a week three, but now it's Damian Harris? Is it

111
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: still buyers buyer beware when it comes to Damian Harris

112
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 1: now with the New England backfield, because as a buyer

113
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: that just not only is the last name, but someone

114
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: who's also looking for a running back in one of

115
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: my fantasy leagues. I still just have buyers beware when

116
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: it comes to New England Patriots. And I'm not necessarily

117
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: buying Damien Harris just yet. No, that's it. Seventeen for

118
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: a hundred owned in thirty one of leagues as of

119
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: now before the next waiver period finishes. But you got

120
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: James White came back right after his absence. Only three

121
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 1: carries but seven catches out of the backfield, so you

122
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: know he's going to leach off whatever it is eight

123
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: five touches depending on game script and how it's flowing.

124
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: And then Sony Michelle comes back. You look, even tonight,

125
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 1: Rex Burkheads still had eleven carries, right, They still true

126
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,799
Speaker 1: to the run games. So should he be rostered? Sure,

127
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: if your bench is deeper and you're playing with multiple

128
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: I R and COVID spots and all these other things,

129
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,119
Speaker 1: because this is this year has really changed how people

130
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: are adjusting roster's right, it's not just bench spots. You're

131
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: seeing I L, I R whatever it's designated, depending on

132
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: your service. That you could slide a guy in there

133
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: if he's declared out for a game and go pick

134
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: up someone on waivers, which is former fantasy baseball thing

135
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: now come to football. So if you can roster Harris

136
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: and just play defense and see how it shakes out,

137
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: then cool. But otherwise I'm with you. The New England

138
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: backfields one, I don't want to have a lot of

139
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: person and especially with Cam Newton whenever he does come

140
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: back from the COVID nineteen, there's also another person that's

141
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: taking up the rushing opportunities to goline carries to have

142
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: any value. So as great at a night as Damien

143
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: Harris needs. Even if you're desperate for a running back,

144
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's where you need to go. I

145
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: do love week four in the NFL and Week five

146
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: in the National Football League, and I love it in

147
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: fantasy football because this is the time to get cooking. Now.

148
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: We have a trade deadline in our league. It doesn't

149
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: come up until week twelve of our fantasy season, but Mike,

150
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: I know that there are owners that will want to

151
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: do a trade, their owners after the draft is done,

152
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: that will send out trade proposals like they're just NonStop.

153
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 1: People love to trade, but for the people who are

154
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: maybe apprehensive in doing so. And I don't mind that.

155
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: I don't like to do trades in the first two

156
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: or three weeks unless absolutely have to or really just

157
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 1: get a sense that, boy I I really messed up

158
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: this draft. I like to see how the team plays

159
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: out and week four, if you're one in three, you're

160
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: not out of it. And so I just think at

161
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: this point in the season, over these next two or

162
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: three days, try to make a deal. Try to make

163
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: a trade, Try to find out the value if somebody has,

164
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: you know, got a bunch of wide receivers that they're looking,

165
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: you know, to to maybe uh add another running back.

166
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: I'm always high in trying to get running backs more

167
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: so than wide receivers. But look for deals out there.

168
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 1: This is the absolute prime time to do it before

169
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: a trade deadline, because now you're enough into the season

170
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 1: to not be married to your draft and it's still

171
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: early enough, I think to get get in on some

172
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: guys that maybe have potential for the rest of the season.

173
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: So I love this time of year in fantasy. No,

174
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: it's it is. It is the best right because now

175
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: you're you're recognizing what teams are right. You come in

176
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: blind to it, and you know the thing we always say, hope,

177
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: I grab it out of Shawshank redemption. Right. They use

178
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: hope in two ways. Hopes the best of things, run

179
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: night and move forward whatever, And then you've got red

180
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: Saying hopes a dangerous thing because you know, you make

181
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: bad decisions sometimes on either either end of the spectrum.

182
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: But you know, after four weeks we know who these

183
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: teams are, at least most of them. I think there's

184
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: still a handful that you put into a bucket going

185
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: I really don't know which way this is gonna go.

186
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,559
Speaker 1: But for the most part, we know Dallas defense is bad. Right,

187
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: nobody's walking through that door. I keep suggesting, at son

188
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 1: of bum uh, let's get Wade Phillips back in the mix.

189
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: See if he cobblesome magic there. But in terms of

190
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: free agent players, and we see a couple of guys

191
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: that are potentially going to get signed, are they difference makers? No? Right,

192
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: so you know they're going to continue to throw the ball.

193
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: So if you're an Ezekiel Elliott owner, I'm sorry, it's

194
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: gonna be a long year for you. They're gonna be

195
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: the ball a ton, right, But you have certain other circumstances. Right,

196
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,839
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz gets a big win over San Francisco, they

197
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: still have all their division games to go, and I

198
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: guarantee whoever drafted him in their lead in your league

199
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: hates him hates him right now, even with back to

200
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: back solid efforts. So I mean there's certain players just

201
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: from a schedule watching perspective, you do a little bit

202
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: of the due diligence, Maybe you can get a nice

203
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: by low opportunity, but sitting in standing pat forget about it.

204
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: Your trash someone else may find as gold. And if

205
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 1: you can build a case for them, get after it,

206
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: practice your sales skills. Yeah, I I you mentioned Ezekiel Elliott.

207
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: I think it's a great point because on Fox Sports

208
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: Radio on Sunday in the Red Zones show that I

209
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: do with George Rice Stir five o'clock Eastern time to Pacific,

210
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 1: just a little plug there, we had Darryl Johnston on

211
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: Moose Johnston and he was on the call of the

212
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: Cowboys Browns game and basically just said that his team

213
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: doesn't run through Zeke anymore and that this team runs

214
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: through Dak Prescott and you know Zeke and people are

215
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: just gonna have to realize that that is the case.

216
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: So if you are at Ezekiel Elliott owner, I'm not

217
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: saying give up on him, Mike, just because of a

218
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: certain value of running backs, but that is a name

219
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: that could probably get you a pretty good haul and

220
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: get you some other maybe running backs that aren't as

221
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: flashy name wise, but could give you similar to maybe

222
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: even better production than what you could get from the

223
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 1: Cowboys running back. Yeah. I think that there's this is

224
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: one of those opportunities. Right look at the guy in

225
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: your league who's got the handcuff to another back right,

226
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: that maybe is worth a price shot for later on

227
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: in the season, and you can upgrade your receiving cores

228
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: or your quarterback position because the name value and the history. Right,

229
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: just flash the numbers and you'll say, over time it

230
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: will come, will it? I don't know, but again playing

231
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: that same thing as I mentioned with wins, perhaps once

232
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: you get into division that division stinks, uh, you may

233
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: have some opportunities, you know whereby they can get back

234
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: to that script because uh something Jason Smith and I

235
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: talked about quite a bit on our Monday show coming

236
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 1: out a week four uh seven to eleven Pacific, Fox

237
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 1: Sports Radio, the I Heart Radio app series, XM Channel A,

238
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: D three and four D plus affiliates nationwide, and the

239
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,199
Speaker 1: Voice in your head. But one of the things as

240
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: the impressiveness by which, whether you buy or don't, what

241
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: Cleveland's doing their three and one right and their identity

242
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: right now is to run the ball and not let

243
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield screw it up for Dallas. While you want

244
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: to use the wide receivers you have, and it's a

245
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: great stable add waiver wire guy ind Schultz off your

246
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: fantasy world, it would behoove them to run the football

247
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: again to keep that defense off the damn field seeing

248
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: how terrible they're Do you want to keep playing forty

249
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: five thirty eight games or thirty eight like you were this, No,

250
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: that's not how you want to win or try to

251
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: win football games. So the only way to do that.

252
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: And then even if you do hire a new defensive consultant, uh,

253
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: he can't play the games. So maybe they flipped the

254
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 1: script a little of how they how they will run

255
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 1: their offense going forward. But for the short term, you've

256
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: got four four games worth of data to start making

257
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: those trades. I like the way you think. Get out there. Yeah,

258
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,959
Speaker 1: you got to swing a deal. Did you just try

259
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 1: to one up my plug with your plug of the

260
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 1: Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon because you added you

261
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: added the channels where they could hear it. I just

262
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: gave the times to my show, so you kind of

263
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: like you kind of cranked it up a notch. It well,

264
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: but it helps both of us because she can be

265
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: heard out of the same venues for those out of wares.

266
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: We're both Fox Sports radio people. But but it was

267
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: it was a discussion we'd had before the season when

268
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: the Browns had brought back Kareem Hunt, right, and they

269
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: signed him to that deal. Was all right, there's a

270
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: shifting here if they're going to invest that much. Not

271
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: that Nick Chubb's making a ton of money still on

272
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: his rookie deal, but the idea that you now have

273
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: both those backs. Hunt is a great pass receiver, banged

274
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: up right now, but played, and with Chubb going to

275
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: injury list for what six weeks plus, we'll see if

276
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: we can find another guy to step in. But the

277
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: identity gone away from let's winging around just because we

278
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 1: have name brand receivers and I think Dallas would be

279
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: wise to do the same. So that was just a

280
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: talking point from the show that I thought could gravitate

281
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: its way here. This episode is brought to you by

331
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 1: that just want to get off the list because I

332
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 1: do want to talk Bill O'Brien, b o b out

333
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: of Houston fired on Monday. On the same day he

334
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 1: announced that he was going to take over the play calling,

335
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: which is still get You still get to do that,

336
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: which is so awesome. What you know, what always annoyed

337
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 1: me about Bill O'Brien. You wanna you wanna know what

338
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 1: annoyed me? And it's not the chin, It's not that,

339
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 1: It's not the arrogance or how he would answer certain questions.

340
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: What annoyed me about Bill O'Brien was he always wore

341
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: a black Texans hat and their colors were navy, and

342
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: I didn't know, I couldn't find out. Maybe like sometimes

343
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,919
Speaker 1: you do it for a cause you're trying to, you know,

344
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: bring recognition to something. But it always annoyed me that

345
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: he would wear that black cat because there was no

346
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 1: black in the Texans uniform or color scheme, and it

347
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: just was so annoying because black and navy also just

348
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: don't work. Maybe a different type of Navy, but the

349
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 1: Navy that the Texans had. So I'm glad I don't

350
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 1: get to see the black hat again. But I don't

351
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 1: know how different we're gonna see the Texans with even

352
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien not being there. I don't know if they'll

353
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 1: play looser. I don't think that, because honestly, I don't

354
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 1: think that they were trying to say Bill O'Brien's job.

355
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 1: Maybe just having him out of the building could free

356
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: stuff up, but I don't even think that that's it.

357
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: I think we're just gonna get more of the same,

358
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 1: and unfortunately that's not good news for the Houston Texans. Yeah,

359
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: I mean, Deshaun Watson right now is still a QB

360
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 1: one for fantasy purposes through the first quarter of the season,

361
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: which is pretty impressive since he doesn't have a damn

362
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: guy to throw to right the on on again, off

363
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: again love affair that fantasy owners and the media have

364
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 1: with Will Fuller until I see him play a full

365
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 1: quarter of a season healthy and not a he's on

366
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 1: the sideline for this series because of a hammy or

367
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: all of these things. Look, I'm sorry the guy gets hurt.

368
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: It's no disrespect to him. It's just reality. It's like that.

369
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 1: We always talk availability being your best ability, right, Deshaun

370
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 1: Watson's gotten nothing of talent, of consistency. Randall Cobb. They

371
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: paid a king's ransom to come in Johnson and Johnson

372
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: in the backfield. Are you kidding me? No, it's yeah.

373
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: Brendan Cooks three target zero catches against the Vikings. Yeah.

374
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: And the Willfuller thing, it's funny because you didn't mention

375
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 1: him as one of your uh A guy to play at.

376
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: Will Fuller cashed in six catches and eight yards and

377
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: a touchdown. But it was also what he popped up

378
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 1: on the injury list on Thursday. So when when you're

379
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 1: talking about it was cleared on Friday and taking off

380
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: the injury list. But when you're trying to figure out

381
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 1: how to fill out your lineup and you have that

382
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: sort of history, yeah, it's right there. There's just there's

383
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: not much in Houston. Here's the sad thing about it

384
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 1: on a personal level for me, is I picked a

385
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 1: Shawn Watson to be the m v P, and I

386
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: was considering between three guys Watson, Murray, and Russell Wilson.

387
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,160
Speaker 1: And I thought that if the Texans had any sort

388
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 1: of success because of the lack of talent around him.

389
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: Like this is such a backwards uh way of thinking,

390
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: but that Watson would be elevated where you would say, wow,

391
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 1: look at what Houston has done. They didn't even have

392
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins anymore, and here they are ten and six

393
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: winning the a f C South. What I should have

394
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: said is they've got nothing around him. It's not gonna

395
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: work out in Houston, because that's what's happened through the

396
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 1: first four weeks of the season. And now Bill O'Brien

397
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,239
Speaker 1: doesn't have a job. Yeah, I mean, and when we

398
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 1: when we break it down, right, the schedule makers didn't

399
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 1: do them any favors. Right, This is the Big ten

400
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:40,199
Speaker 1: Nebraska equivalent for the national Right, Hey, you want to

401
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 1: leave Blake here, here's your schedule. Same thing here with

402
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: the with the Texas. Obviously you win the division, your

403
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 1: schedule is gonna be harder. But they gave them a

404
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: murderers row in the first four weeks, right, Not that

405
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: Minnesota has been world beating to this point, but they

406
00:21:55,359 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 1: came in with expectations. Yeah, right, and can still put

407
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: up some points defensively. They still have their issues. But

408
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: for the first four weeks. I don't know. You probably

409
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: go strength the schedule who's had it harder than they have, right,

410
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 1: But personnel wise, I mean, they certainly don't have the

411
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 1: horses to get that done either. Uh And and we've

412
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 1: talked about that that schedule a bunch of times on

413
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: this podcast. And the only issue that I will bring

414
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 1: up to say that I think is indefensible is there

415
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: was never a game where they play Texans football Like,

416
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: there's never a game where you're like, okay, they've got

417
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 1: things rolling, maybe a little bit in that Pittsburgh game

418
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: where it's like, okay, this is but they seem to

419
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,919
Speaker 1: be from behind from Kansas City. They seem to be

420
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: playing catch up against the Vikings on Sunday. They were

421
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: never in the game against the Ravens. There was never

422
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: that point where, at any point, and this was a

423
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: team that I thought was gonna win the a f

424
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 1: C South, that even with that murderer's role, there was

425
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: never a point where they were able to put their

426
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: stamping on anything. And that just tells me that they

427
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: just aren't at the caliber of those teams. Well, we've

428
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: we saw it. Gutted Trader, Bill had made his mark right,

429
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: and even going forward, Miami's got a bunch of their

430
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 1: picks going forward, so the Cavalry is not walking through

431
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: that door, right. Bill O'Brien had already made his his

432
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: mark as GM. Uh, and it's a disaster. So we'll

433
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: be you'd be curious to see what the next generation is.

434
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: I'm just feeling bad for Deshaun Watson, but by the

435
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: same token, between him, Tunsil and j J. Watt, you've

436
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: got three guys making a ton of cash that's really

437
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,199
Speaker 1: not gonna help you rebuild this roster whomever comes in

438
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: as GM next, you've got Jacksonville coming in next week,

439
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 1: and then you've got the Titans and Packers, so you

440
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,959
Speaker 1: better get that win against Jacksonville because it could uh,

441
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: it could be getting worse. The rest of the schedule

442
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: does lighten up a little bit where you you do

443
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 1: have the Lions on your schedule. But point being, well,

444
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: we'll talk. If we talk Texans Lions, it's gonna be

445
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: one heck of a podcast, I'll tell you that much.

446
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the two big injuries that

447
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: happened in the National Football League. We're gonna talk Austin

448
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: Ekeler first, because this was a guy that was a

449
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: high draft pick and now out four to six weeks.

450
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: Because in the hamstring with the Chargers, how does that

451
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: trickle down in the Bolts back field? What does it

452
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: do for everybody else? Justin Herbert Keenan Allen and those guys.

453
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 1: But Austin Ekeler not going to be around for Anthony

454
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: Lynn squad. Well, the hardest part is still determining what

455
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: what Anthony Lynn is gonna do with the quarterback position. Right,

456
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: that's a side issue, but it certainly informs a lot

457
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 1: of the performances that we see in that receiving corps

458
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: because remember Mike Williams hasn't been available either. But for

459
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: Austin Ekeler to go down just awful. Uh, Fantasy owners

460
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: really bet him big. I didn't think he'd hold up

461
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: over a full season. Uh, hamstring injury, you know, obviously

462
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: something you can't quite predict, and it's severe enough that

463
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: we're talking missing some games. So Joshua Kelly already on

464
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,399
Speaker 1: about half of fantasy rosters. He'll be a hot waiver

465
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:16,359
Speaker 1: wire pick up. My guy Justin Jackson from Northwestern gets

466
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: back in the mix some Uh So I would say

467
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: probably sixty forty would be my guests off the jump,

468
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: maybe seventy thirty. Because Jackson had some injury issues coming

469
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: into the year, maybe they don't want to give him

470
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 1: a huge role. But I think a lot of it

471
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,399
Speaker 1: will be informed by what Anthony Lynn wants to do

472
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: at QB. Right, is he still married to the idea

473
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,400
Speaker 1: that because of the injury to to Rod Taylor, that

474
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: he's got to give him another shot when he's healthy,

475
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: because that's gonna change Keenan Allen value, Hunter Henry's value

476
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: and what that passing game is. Not to mention the

477
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: run game, I think right you'll see a little more

478
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: of a bonus for them because they'll want to run

479
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: the ball and play defense and not necessarily pushed down

480
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 1: field with to Rod Taylor, whereas justin Herbert, as we

481
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: saw with a couple of beautiful deep strikes. I mean,

482
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,439
Speaker 1: that kid's got an arm and he's not afraid to

483
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: use it and winging around for better or for worse. Right,

484
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: that's gonna that comes back to bite you in the

485
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 1: ass as a ruggie too. But at least that willingness

486
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,439
Speaker 1: to push down field, I don't know that that's the

487
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 1: game Anthony Lynn was looking to call, but it's at

488
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: his disposal, so long as Herbert's there. I thought it interesting.

489
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: Bruce Harrians even made a point of saying after the

490
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: game that he spoke with Anthony Land and just basically said,

491
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: you got you gotta you got a kid there with

492
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 1: with Justin and Herbert making a Patrick Mahomes like throw,

493
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 1: and then Arians talked about it in the post game.

494
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: So there's I know that Anthony Lynn addressed the issue

495
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 1: on Monday when he talked with the media. There's you know,

496
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 1: if I'm Keenan Allen and those guys, I'm in coach's

497
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: office being like, all right, we love to Rod and everything,

498
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,360
Speaker 1: but let's stick with the rook I think more damage

499
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: can be on by allowing to Rod Taylor to come

500
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: back and take the starting job. More damage can be

501
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 1: done to Justin Herbert than the positive that can be

502
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 1: gained by starting to Rod Taylor. And that's I think

503
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 1: what you have to weigh if you're the Chargers in

504
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 1: their situation. I just I mean, it's without Austin Ekeler there,

505
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: you know, with the with the triple J backfield that

506
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: you basically have now with with the Justin Jackson and

507
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:35,120
Speaker 1: Joshua Kelly and now Justin Herbert Um. Yeah, the Chargers

508
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: were the perfect team that were, as I said, sixteen

509
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: to twenty points a week, and I think that's probably

510
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: gonna be this the way that it goes out. I

511
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: don't see too many thirty one games like that against

512
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers. Well, and let's call it what it is.

513
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 1: As it stands, they've got a laundry list of injuries

514
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 1: to key personnel as well. Right, offensive line is really

515
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 1: banged up, and we look defensively, you've already right bouncing

516
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: missing is ments and then you had what both tackles

517
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:06,159
Speaker 1: were banged up this week, right, And then defensively, well,

518
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 1: Derwin James isn't there, uh, and Ingram isn't there. So

519
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: I mean, you're missing a couple of your top playmakers.

520
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 1: So you're probably gonna be needing to push the ball

521
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: a little more than maybe you would have liked to

522
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 1: on your script, right, because you're not gonna be able

523
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: to control as many because you don't have the the

524
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 1: killer safety coming up to stop the run game and

525
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 1: everything else like Derwin James was able to. So you're

526
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: gonna get yourself probably into more of these shootouts, and

527
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 1: I don't know that Torod Taylor's equipped to be that

528
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 1: guy in those spots. I like him, but when the

529
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 1: strongest thing is you know, he he doesn't turn the

530
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 1: ball over and he calls a good game under center. Okay,

531
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 1: what does that mean? Like, if you're down, is he

532
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: the guy to quarterback you're back in. I don't think

533
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: he's the guy to do it right. If your defense

534
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: isn't up to the task and the pass rushers aren't

535
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: getting home and you're down, we atle saw from the

536
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 1: kid he's gonna keep winging it and you know there

537
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: there's bad habits that can be formed there, but also

538
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 1: a lot of confidence about being able to play in

539
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: this league. Let's get into the Browns just a little

540
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 1: bit more than that we did earlier because of the

541
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb injury. He's now out six weeks expected because

542
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: of the calf strain. You mentioned Kareem Hunt taking over

543
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: the the the rushing load, but it wasn't Nick Chubb

544
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: and it wasn't Kareem Hunt that actually led the team

545
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: in rushing on Sunday. It was de Ernist Johnson. So

546
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: so the the brown still didn't miss it. Beat with

547
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: all of their stars. And I'm not saying I'm not

548
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 1: trying to make fun of de artist Johnson's effort because

549
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 1: it was thirteen carries ninety five yards for for Cleveland,

550
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: but without Nick Chubb it seems to be the Kareem

551
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 1: Hunt show. Is the Ernest Johnson a guy that you're

552
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: gonna be looking at the pickup? How do things shape

553
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: out of Cleveland now with Chubb on the bench. Damn right,

554
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: Let's go Dernis Johnson because it's gonna be a workload split.

555
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: And I don't think Kareem Hunt because right now you

556
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 1: can't expose him, not to say that he won't have

557
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 1: a game or two where he's in that touch category.

558
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: But I think, you know, if if my read on

559
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 1: this is right of the identity and not wanting Mayfield

560
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 1: half ass winging it around as he was wont to

561
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: do a year ago, then they stick to this plan.

562
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,959
Speaker 1: And whether Dernis Johnson can do this consistently, I don't know.

563
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: I uh is a pretty pretty strong effort. We take

564
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 1: it with a grain assault because it's the Cowboys, and

565
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: we know how bad UH and sieve like that defense

566
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: can has been. But I think the identity is to

567
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: run the football and control clock, and I mean defensive backfield.

568
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 1: They haven't been able to get healthy yet, so that's

569
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 1: that's certainly something to hang a star on, which is

570
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: why Dak Prescott, once they actually started connecting, was able

571
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: to make Hey, the front part of their defense has

572
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: been solid, but the back end struggles. And while that's

573
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 1: still in effect, keep that defense off the field as

574
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 1: best you can. Go to the ground game. So I'll

575
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 1: pick up Johnson and you know he may only be flexworthy.

576
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 1: And again it's a defensive play. With Nick Chubb down

577
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: six weeks and Kareem Hunt came into the game being

578
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: on the injury list, you know the next man up.

579
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 1: And this goes back to our handcuffing strategy from before

580
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: the season, right in addition to trade, this is where

581
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 1: you start looking around to say, all right, which of

582
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: the backups, even if they haven't gotten a ton of

583
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 1: work yet, are still unowned and do I have an

584
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: opportunity to add them to the my bench because of

585
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: the I L spots being added, so I can play

586
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: defense that way. The Browns, I am, I I am

587
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: not with you, I am about eight with you. I'm

588
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: kind of just like at two o'clock while you're at noon.

589
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 1: I agreed, like at the start of the season, you

590
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 1: run the ball with with Chubb and you run the

591
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: ball with Creme hunting that your best way of success,

592
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 1: and you want to limit Baker Mayfield's mistakes that that

593
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 1: he can make. I find it interesting and this is

594
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 1: the best part about what Sunday was was that Kevin

595
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 1: Stefanski took the pressure off of Baker Mayfield and still

596
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 1: find a way to get the ball to Odell Beckham Jr.

597
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 1: Because the force feeding of O. B J. Last season

598
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: is what I think did Baker Mayfield in and even

599
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: at the start of this season because of all of

600
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: the weapons that they do have with Jervis Landry, with

601
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper, to be able to run a play where

602
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: Jervis Landry throws a touchdown pass too too oh b J.

603
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: To have that sort of thing, to run an end

604
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: around with him, none of that was you know, really Baker.

605
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: You know Baker's doing in that aspect, and so that

606
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: was That's what I thought was brilliant about it was

607
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: they were still able to take the pressure off of

608
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: Baker but still get the ball in Odell Beckham Jr's hands,

609
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: and that is a huge positive sign feeding everybody, making

610
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: them feel a part with Baker not having any pressure.

611
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: So that's a good forward for you. And I mean

612
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: the years we've done the Fantasy Show and myriad you

613
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: know spots on Fox Sports Radio chopping up football. I mean,

614
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 1: how many quarterbacks have we talked about and the struggles

615
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 1: of having to force feed a singular receiver right to

616
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 1: where you get my opic? I mean, look at what

617
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,479
Speaker 1: happened in Detroit all those years with Calvin Johnson, as

618
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: great as he was. Should Matthew Stafford have been looking

619
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: somewhere else? Sure? Should Jake Cutler have been looking somewhere

620
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 1: more than Brandon Marshall. Yes, not that they had receivers

621
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 1: anywhere near that talent level, but with the amount of

622
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: attention that the number one was getting, go somewhere else.

623
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: But that myopia ended up becoming problematic for both of

624
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 1: those guys in terms of locker room and wins and

625
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: losses and everything else. And the media you know, feasted

626
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 1: on both of them through the years. And we could

627
00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: go through there's a ton of other examples. I take

628
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 1: NFC North because well, I painfully watch all those games

629

00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: see is snook Deagle double gene rack them, we rack up.

671
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 1: It's celebrity selections, alright, our celebrity selections four weeks four

672
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: and a guy with a lot of hardware. Some of

673
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: that hardware is a Heisman Trophy, Trophy Wommer winner, former

674
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,280
Speaker 1: first round pick of the New York Giants. College Football

675
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer Ron Dane was our celebrity picker four

676
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 1: week four. Ron went with Patrick Mahomes Jonathan Taylor. That

677
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: seemed to be a match made in heaven. Both went

678
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: to Wisconsin, both guys from Jersey, and then and then

679
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,800
Speaker 1: he went Julio Jones who had the question mark with

680
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 1: a hamstring. It was a tough go for Mahomes didn't

681
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 1: even have the Mahomes like game against the Patriots to

682
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: thirty six two touchdowns and did have twenty eight yards rushing,

683
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor just sixty eight yards on the ground, added

684
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 1: another eleven receiving, and then you had Julio Jones with

685
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 1: the four catch thirty two yard performance but had to

686
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: leave against the Green Bay Packers. So it was a

687
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 1: quiet week for Ron Dane in our standings and right now,

688
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 1: unfortunately for Ron is in last place at thirty six

689
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: point nine behind a thirty some points, just under thirty

690
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 1: points behind Josephine Scriber, who remains in first place with

691
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: sixty five point five points. Top performance tough week. Talk

692
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: about the Mahomes touchdowns that in my book, they don't count.

693
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: Those are handoffs. Just because it went in the air

694
00:37:55,080 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: for point four seconds doesn't count. But the Julio Joe

695
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 1: One's injury certainly huge. We we talked about Monday Night

696
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 1: Football before. I'd be remiss if we didn't at least

697
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,279
Speaker 1: mention that Calvin Ridley got shut out right nice play

698
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 1: by Amos in the in the end zone to keep

699
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: him from at least getting a saver touchdown towards the end.

700
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,320
Speaker 1: Three targets on the first series and then very quiet

701
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 1: until the end and we'll almost had the touchdown, but

702
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: Ryan was a beat too slow and getting the ball.

703
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: They're allowing Amos to recover. But for Ron Dane, just

704
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: a tough go. The Bears defense did a good job

705
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,840
Speaker 1: of stiffening up in the red zone. You saw a

706
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 1: lot of Rodrigo blanket ship over and over again. Uh

707
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 1: in that game. Philip Rivers with some great smack talk

708
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: that's become gift worthy across the world. But for Jonathan

709
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 1: Taylor didn't didn't get any of that red zone glory

710
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: that you love. Uh. And again the early exit from

711
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: Julio Jones. That's stuff, man, That that is just a tough. Yeah,

712
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: especially at a game where they were throwing in a

713
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: budget at the end where you could have picked up something.

714
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 1: I ordered Ron a point, he has thirty seven point

715
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: nine points, Josephine Scriber still at first, sixty five point five,

716
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: Alicia Sacrimony, Quinn sixty five point four, Jeff Sceario in

717
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 1: third at sixty point seven, and then you got Ron

718
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,719
Speaker 1: Dane in thirty and fourth with a thirty seven point nine.

719
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 1: All right, Hey, Ron had a rough week, so did I.

720
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: I almost burnt off my eyebrows grilling on Saturday. Completely

721
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 1: suffered story just green egg got a little bit too

722
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: hot forgot that the events were all open. Came back,

723
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 1: it was like eight hundred degrees, closed the vents. It

724
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,000
Speaker 1: immediately dropped the six hundred, tried to burp it, then

725
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: opened it up. Didn't even see the flame. All I

726
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: heard was my bangs like starting to crisp, and yeah,

727
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 1: the the yeah, it's nothing big, no burns, but just

728
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,439
Speaker 1: just a little off the top courtesy of the Big

729
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 1: Green Egg. On Saturday, I figured it was kind of

730
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 1: our last day of summer because it was hot here

731
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 1: in southern California, you know, went up some ribs on

732
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 1: the grill, and uh yeah, I got a little out

733
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: of hand. But other than that, and me and other

734
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 1: than that, and me going three at eleven against the

735
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 1: spread on picks this week, it was a dandy weekend, Mike,

736
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:14,439
Speaker 1: It it really was. I can't even I can't even

737
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 1: do this. We usually do our epic fails, and I

738
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 1: used and I on our Friday episodes, do to give

739
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 1: me one reason to start, and give you one reason

740
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 1: to bench. The two guys that I picked would have

741
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: the same exact amount of points, so I don't even

742
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: know if I wonder lost on them. I said to

743
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: start Tyler Boyd, he had seven catches for ninety yards

744
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,919
Speaker 1: and at a four yard carry. And then I said,

745
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: bench Tyreek Kill. Well, he had four catches for sixty

746
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 1: four yards and a touchdown against the Patriots. That came

747
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 1: out to sixteen point four points if you're in a

748
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: PPR league. So I didn't even get that right. So

749
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 1: that was my week four in a nutshell for you?

750
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: What did you hit out and what did you miss

751
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,760
Speaker 1: or have an epic fail for in week four? Because

752
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 1: mine was a dandy Let's see, uh, I was slightly

753
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,320
Speaker 1: better against the spread, so my one nine d lose

754
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 1: my ass challenge. I went eight and eight, So I

755
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 1: do forty miles this week. That's pretty amazing since there

756
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 1: were fifteen games, Mike, I don't know how you picked

757
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 1: so well. No, because I looked at the other sorry,

758
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: so eight and seven, I gave myself the loss on

759
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,800
Speaker 1: the other one, I guess, so like a winning week

760
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 1: A rarity these days in terms of pick. Sorry, I

761
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: immediately gave myself credit for that sixteenth game, which is

762
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: postponed a week seven. As we know, uh Kenyan Drake

763
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 1: did me nothing. Ever, since he cursed out, Fantasy Owner's

764
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: karma has been against him, so he's been invisible. As

765
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:45,360
Speaker 1: you go through, I looked at when Matthew Stafford didn't

766
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 1: give me the monster numbers. I anticipated the cold still

767
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 1: gave you three scores, though I gave you three touchdowns.

768
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 1: I know the yard iss just weren't there. But yeah,

769
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: as we go through, you know he finished tenth. I

770
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 1: was expecting better the way I hyped him up, So

771
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:06,839
Speaker 1: I'll take the l there I had. In terms of positives,

772
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,400
Speaker 1: they were a few and far between. I mean, you

773
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:13,359
Speaker 1: know what Tanyan that we talked about, but you know

774
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 1: the I guess David Montgomery not being a factor. It

775
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,439
Speaker 1: wasn't he was. He was not a no go uh

776
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,920
Speaker 1: and nor nor did I think that you'd end up

777
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: with a huge fantasy day from Philip Rivers and he didn't.

778
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 1: They won, but it certainly wasn't for anything he did.

779
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:35,799
Speaker 1: They had the touchdown to mo Ali Cox, but beyond that,

780
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 1: it was again the blanket ship show. I'll just say this,

781
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:43,760
Speaker 1: I don't care about what you missed. You nailed Tanyan

782
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,919
Speaker 1: on the head. And if anybody listens to this podcast,

783
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 1: that Trump's everything. That's That's the queen of clubs in

784
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: a game of Shaska if you want beats every card,

785
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: I think Tanyan Trump said, we're gonna leave it at that.

786
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 1: We're gonna get to your bears. By the way, in

787
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 1: a seconds, they played Thursday night football against the Buccaneers.

788
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: Will get your look ahead to that, But let's look

789
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,919
Speaker 1: ahead to the immediate future. Waiver wire is out there.

790
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: What are some names people need to target, especially because

791
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: real buys are here, not just Titan Steelers because of COVID,

792
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 1: but Lions and Packers not playing in Week five? Who

793
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:19,239
Speaker 1: should we target on the waiver wire heading into this week? Well,

794
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 1: if you're having trouble at the quarterback position, you've got

795
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:26,360
Speaker 1: the opportunity of opportunities. Teddy Bridgewater virtually unowned. He's got Atlanta,

796
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:28,959
Speaker 1: it's on the road. But I don't see Dan Quinn

797
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 1: suddenly figuring this thing out. I don't know about you,

798
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: but it's been pretty painful to sit through the twelve

799
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,840
Speaker 1: hours that I've given any time two of my life

800
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 1: watching Atlanta Falcons football. That's pretty miserable as you go

801
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,359
Speaker 1: out of this game as well, though. I mean, even

802
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: though the Week five by we've got Detroit and Green

803
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:54,799
Speaker 1: Bay or off, Jamal Williams is only owned right in

804
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: the receiving game, Uh tonight or I should say Monday

805
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: Night football eight carries ten yards? All right, to hang

806
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,360
Speaker 1: a star on that, But I don't think Aaron Jones

807
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 1: is gonna be the only back they use because if

808
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 1: they've got aspirations and they should looking at the way

809
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: the division sets up of a long term run, they

810
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 1: can't be using him thirty times a game. So I

811
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: think Williams right now at owned offers some value to

812
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 1: you going forward. Uh. You had Zachaeus as well, with

813
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:30,600
Speaker 1: everybody banged up, eight eight catches, nine targets for eighty

814
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 1: six yards uh for Atlanta. So while you can say,

815
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: hey it's garbage time, targets are targets. And if Jones

816
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 1: and is going to be banged up and not available

817
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 1: to them, certainly, so I want to look for I

818
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: mentioned Dalton Scholtz a little bit earlier. Uh, twenty four

819
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: targets the last three games. He's gone over seventy yards twice,

820
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 1: a couple of touchdowns. And again Dallas defense isn't getting

821
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 1: any better, so they're gonna keep chucking. We already talked

822
00:44:56,080 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 1: about the the Chargers situation. Scotty Miller, who we talked

823
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: about to start the season, he went back to the

824
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,479
Speaker 1: waiver wire in a lot of leagues for Tampa Bay.

825
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 1: We'll get into the Thursday night game in a moment,

826
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 1: but they've got injuries all over the place. Right now.

827
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: You lose O. J. Howard. You're already talking about be

828
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: the availability of Godwin and Evans week to week. Here's

829
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: a steady, set it and forget it ronco product uh

830
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,839
Speaker 1: Tim Patrick and Denver another guy wanted to highlight really

831
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,960
Speaker 1: quick as well, because you're looking at UH six six

832
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:35,440
Speaker 1: out of seven for touchdowns back to back games. A

833
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 1: big target for Denver, all the injuries that we know

834
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: of and where we're at with the quarterback situation. He's

835
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 1: a guy that would have been working with all the

836
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:50,719
Speaker 1: backups to start things back, and even as disjoining the

837
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 1: training camp was, that's still a couple of weeks. So

838
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: whenever you get into deeper in your quarterback depth chart,

839
00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,400
Speaker 1: you start looking for that guy who has an action

840
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: going back to training camp, going back to preseason, and

841
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 1: right now Patrick looks like a guy who could be

842
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,879
Speaker 1: that guy. And Jerry Judy, for whatever reason, was still

843
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 1: unowned in thirty percent of leagues. That doesn't make much

844
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: sense to me. He won't be after this week. Bucketeers

845
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 1: and Bears will start Week five on Thursday night. Obviously

846
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,359
Speaker 1: we we we hope that we have the schedule as

847
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,400
Speaker 1: it is for Week five. Things could change. Titan situations

848
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 1: still up in the airs. They take on the Bills

849
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 1: but let's look ahead to Thursday. It is Buccaneers at Bears.

850
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,000
Speaker 1: You mentioned a bunch of Buccaneers. Don't think that Chris

851
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,800
Speaker 1: Godwin is going to go just because of the short

852
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,879
Speaker 1: week as it is. But who do you guys need

853
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 1: to play and look out for for Thursday night? Well,

854
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 1: I think on the Bear side it's outside of Allen Robinson.

855
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,719
Speaker 1: I don't know that there's anybody you truly trust. Right

856
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 1: you look at the running back position. We talked about

857
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 1: David Montgomery and the struggles against Indianapolis front seven of

858
00:46:56,680 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: Tampa on no slouches, and look at Naggi's trying to

859
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 1: find the needle in the haystack. At this point, you're

860
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 1: seeing a lot more of cor Darrel Patterson and Gadgetree

861
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,279
Speaker 1: and and trying to be creative. Nick Foles looked like

862
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 1: he hadn't played quarterback in five years. Watching him play

863
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 1: with some of you, I think it didn't get help.

864
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 1: But he wasn't. I mean there were some drops as well,

865
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 1: but yeah, he wasn't good on Sunday. Yeah, I was

866
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 1: actively leading to charge of Hey, is this where we

867
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 1: call from Mitch Drabinsky? You know, in halftime? Is this

868
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 1: where we want the quarterback. Sorry, you know it goes

869
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,920
Speaker 1: both ways, especially with as erratic as he was. But

870
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 1: Robinson bailed him out, big catch, uh for a touchdown.

871
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 1: But I can't trust him right. If you're in a

872
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 1: two QB league, fine, otherwise No. As for the the

873
00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,319
Speaker 1: bucks we mentioned, Scottie Miller, I'll take him, especially if

874
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm in a PPR league from the running back position.

875
00:47:55,760 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 1: Difficult necessarily to go any higher than a low were

876
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,240
Speaker 1: RB two For Ronald Jones. You saw what the Bears

877
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:06,280
Speaker 1: were able to do Taylor with just the sixty eight yards,

878
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,319
Speaker 1: So I mean, you might pile up some yardage, but

879
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 1: I think they stiffen and you're gonna see the red

880
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:16,120
Speaker 1: zone go awry. And dare I say Brady's outside my

881
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: top twelve as I sit and look at it, you know,

882
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 1: right coming out a week four, it's a tough, tough play,

883
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 1: especially with the big guys out. And and the other

884
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 1: thing about Ronald Jones, I'll just add to this. He

885
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 1: had six catches for seventeen yards, so that's not even

886
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,319
Speaker 1: three yards of catch, and he had a bunch of

887
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 1: a couple of drops to dump off, so he's not

888
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:37,440
Speaker 1: that much of a threat out of the backfield when

889
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,800
Speaker 1: they when they take on the Bears on Thursday. Alright,

890
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 1: let's four though, Dan, I mean at two yards of

891
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:47,640
Speaker 1: pop and six catches, six catches along of seven, that's

892
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 1: what it was for Ronald Jones receiving wise uh for

893
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 1: that Yeah, his you know, with his status, he'll want

894
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 1: to check that out. But Jones likely to get the nod. Alright,

895
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: three point good version. Uh. Three things that you need

896
00:48:58,120 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 1: to know for these next couple of days before we

897
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:03,960
Speaker 1: met it again Buccaneers Bears Thursday night. Let's wrap this

898
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,879
Speaker 1: baby up as we get ready for week five. Here

899
00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 1: are my three things. Number one, make a deal, look

900
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: to trade, Try to shake up your team if it

901
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:13,919
Speaker 1: needs it. If it's sitting there at one and three,

902
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,319
Speaker 1: this is the prime opportunity to do it. Number two,

903
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 1: don't expect much to change in Houston even though Bill

904
00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,520
Speaker 1: O'Brien is out. I don't know if it will provide

905
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:26,359
Speaker 1: a huge boost that he's out of the building. I

906
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 1: just think that the Texans right now are just shorthanded,

907
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 1: even though they're playing against Jacksonville. I just don't see

908
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 1: a huge boost with Bill O'Brien out of the building

909
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 1: and number three, don't open a green egg when it's

910
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:43,760
Speaker 1: six hundred degrees if you want to keep your eyelashes

911
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 1: and your bangs. That's the three things that you need

912
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: to know in my three point conversion this week. Mike,

913
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 1: go ahead and wrap up yours alright really quick. We

914
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,000
Speaker 1: we say do it for the kids. We talk a

915
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 1: lot about young wide receivers breaking through. Targetcounts are big.

916
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:01,759
Speaker 1: They're not a raid of playing these guys like it

917
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 1: used to be in your grandfather's or your father's fantasy leagues.

918
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,799
Speaker 1: Start schedule watching right, Get a week ahead on your

919
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,239
Speaker 1: waiver wires because we're getting into the bys and you

920
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:14,240

921
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 1: gaps situations. Yes, that means you may want to add

922
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 1: a defense a week early. Yeah, that's kind of scary.

923
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:23,880

Speaker 1: the points are gonna keep flying as long as they're

925

926
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 1: of the show. There's fifty points going up seemingly in

927
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:36,240
Speaker 1: every game, no matter how poor the teams are, points

928
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:38,799
Speaker 1: are being scored. There's one or two outliers a week,

929
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 1: so for fantasy purposes, maximize, look for those bad matchup.

930
00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:46,400
Speaker 1: We now know who those bad defenses are. Get aggressive,

931
00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: and if you've got a packer alliance, sit them on

00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 1: your bench. They aren't playing in week five, Mike, we'll
