I'm your man, nam G 3 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: Marcus Grant. This is Michael f. Florio, still on a high, 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: I would imagine after his Bills rolled into Sofi Stadium 5 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 1: and steamrolled the defending champion Rams. I'm I'm surprised you 6 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 1: made it to work today. It's like you said on Twitter, man, 7 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 1: I just kind of floated in. I didn't need to 8 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 1: drive or anything. This this this high just got me 9 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: here today. So we got we got plenty to talk about. Obviously, 10 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: we have one game under our belt. We will kind 11 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: of go through that and some of the highs and 12 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: lows from that. Plus, we got your questions, You've got cues, 13 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: We've got a's l f G. Time to get this 14 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 1: thing started. Of course, you can always send us your 15 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: fantasy questions on Twitter at NFL Fantasy. We will try 16 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: our best to answer as many of them as we can, 17 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: not just today, but obviously all during the weekend stuff too, 18 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 1: leading up to Sunday. But first, let's start with what 19 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 1: happened just about a few hundred yards away over there 20 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: at Sofi Stadium. The Bills get off to a rousing 21 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: start to the season, a thirty one to ten win 22 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: over the Los Angeles Rams. Josh Allen the huge day 23 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: passing two d ninety seven passing yards, three touchdowns, did 24 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 1: have two interceptions, although you could say, you know, one 25 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: of them wasn't his fault that bounced off of Isaiah 26 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: McKenzie and was picked off. Stephan Digs a hundred and 27 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: twenty two yards in a touchdown. Gabe Davis continuing where 28 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: he left off at the end of last season with 29 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: eight eight yards in a touchdown on the flip side, 30 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: a rough night for the Rams in general. Matt Stafford 31 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: two hundred forty passing yards, one touchdown, three interceptions. Darrell 32 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: Henderson got a surprising amount of work forty seven rushing yards. 33 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup doing Cooper Cup things, thirteen catches, a hundred 34 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: and twenty eight yards and a touchdown. So at least 35 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: any early concerns about regression for Cooper Cup, I guess 36 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: we don't have to worry about that. He is there 37 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: just entire offense, like the whole world knows the ball 38 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: is going to Cooper Cup and no one can stop. 39 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter, doesn't really matter. Meanwhile, for the Bills. I 40 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: mean they spread the ball around. Josh Allen got a 41 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: lot of people involved. I know a lot of the 42 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: offseason talk with this team came to be about what 43 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: do week spell out of Gabe Davis, And at least 44 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: for one night, uh, the answer was, Gabe Davis looks 45 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: like he's that dude. Yeah. That The thing that I 46 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: know myself and others kept talking up about Gabe Davis 47 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: in the preseason and draft season was like, he's a 48 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 1: great deep ball specialist, and he's really good in the 49 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: red zone and at scoring touchdowns, which is a skill. 50 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,799 Speaker 1: And what did gave Davis do last night? He caught 51 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: a long ball, he caught a touchdown pass. He just 52 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: did Gabe Davis things. And I saw people on Twitter 53 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: being like, but only five targets And I'm like, yeah, 54 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: that would be an issue if his quarterback was like 55 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: Mac Jones or Jared Goff or something like that. But 56 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: in the game where the Bills ran, I think a 57 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: little bit more than they normally would because of the 58 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: rams D line, he still was heavily used in this game. 59 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: He played all but one snap. That that was something 60 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: I liked a lot. When your quarterback is Josh Allen, 61 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 1: you're gonna get deep balls and you're gonna get touchdowns. 62 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: You talk about the targets for Gabe Davis and Michelle Maju, 63 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: who also does research here at the NFL, she pointed 64 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 1: out that, yes, it may not be a situation where 65 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: he gets a ton of targets every week, but they're 66 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: gonna be high value tard it. They're gonna be downfield targets. 67 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: They're gonna be end zone targets. So you can live 68 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: with a smaller target number if they lead to big 69 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: points every time he catches the football, and that could 70 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: be with Gabe Davis. Is There's also a lot of 71 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: talk this offseason about the backfield in Buffalo and what 72 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: it was going to mean with James Cook being drafted, 73 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: with Devin Singletary as the lead, and with you know, 74 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: Zack Moss still hanging around there. And again it's only 75 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: one week, it's only one game, but it looks like 76 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary may have a bigger role then we anticipated. 77 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: He got the ball a lot on Thursday night, didn't 78 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: get in the end zone, but I certainly like the 79 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: way they used him. A number of carries caught a 80 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: couple of passes as well play the majority of the 81 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: running back snaps there, So maybe we sort of underestimated 82 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: what Devin Singletary is going to be. Still want to 83 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: see how things progresses the season goes. I have a 84 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: feeling that James Cook was sort of being punished a 85 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: little bit for fumbling on his very first carry. But 86 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: I'll say this, and and you know, you, being the 87 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: Bills fan here, maybe you can weigh in. Zack Moss 88 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: got a lot more work last night than I anticipated. Same. 89 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: I didn't expect that out of Zack Mass. I I 90 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: joked earlier in the offseason that in the preseason that 91 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: they were like showcasing him to trade him. Um. I 92 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: still think in an ideal world, they want James Cook's 93 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: role to grow and grow, and I think that eats 94 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: into Zack Moss just because he's more explosive than Moss is. 95 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: But for now, I think if you have James Cook, 96 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:23,679 Speaker 1: you have to be at least a little bit worried 97 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: that Zach Moss isn't gonna go away. You yeah, I mean, 98 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: you're definitely downgrading James Cook. We're not hitting the panic 99 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: button yet, We're not saying you need to drop him, 100 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: but pay attention and see what happens next week, see 101 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 1: what the usages, and see whether or not Cook comes 102 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: along a little bit. Ah, A lot of people who 103 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,119 Speaker 1: have Allen Robinson are very much pushing the panic button 104 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: this morning. And again, I know it's only one week, 105 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: but Allen Robinson, we thought, we all thought. I know 106 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 1: you said this on Fantasy Live, and I agreed, the 107 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: shiny new toy in Sean mcveigh's offense was gonna get 108 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: a whole lot of attention. He had fewer targets than 109 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: Ben Scronic last night. I don't know about you. Yeah, 110 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: very concerning. And I was watching the game and I'm like, alright, 111 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: like eventually they're gonna get Allen Robinson going right like 112 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: they have to, and then the whole game just goes on. 113 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: And like his second target came in garbage time in 114 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: the end zone and he didn't catch it. But I 115 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: don't think it's time to panic just yet. Like, obviously 116 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: this was not the game we wanted to see. There's 117 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: there is some calls for concern there, but he played 118 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: all but two snaps yesterday. I think that is an 119 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: encouraging sign. Matthew Stafford had a bad game. Cooper Cup 120 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: really was the only Rams player that had a good game. 121 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: And yes, the Bills were without Trey White, but they're 122 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: still one of the better defenses in football. So I'm 123 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: willing to give Alan Robinson a little bit of a pass, 124 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: but I will say it's at least somewhat concerning that 125 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: that he was. I tweeted less night the quote that 126 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: I said the shiny new toy and then just to 127 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: Charlie Murphy Gift being like, wrong, yeah, I know you 128 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: and I before this show came in and said we 129 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: want to go back and look at the All twenties 130 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: two film, which I can use this to go get 131 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: NFL Plus, Right, do you hear that? Management, I'm NFL Plus, 132 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: go get it. You can go watch the All twenty 133 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 1: two is because we wanted to see what the situation 134 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: was like, how open was Allen Robinson, where their times 135 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: where maybe Stafford just didn't look in his direction. Uh, 136 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: that that could have turned into something. So that's something 137 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: that I definitely want to pay attention to and just 138 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: see going forward there um, but was not the start 139 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: any of us wanted. Similarly, with cam Akers, we had 140 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: sort of discussed what was going to happen. I know, 141 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: we all said, look, Darrell Henderson is here, and Sean 142 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: McVeigh keeps talking about both of them, and watching the 143 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: game last night, I remember saying, oh, look, hey, Darrell 144 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: Henderson starting. That's interesting. And then the Rams got the 145 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: ball again. I'm like, hey, Darrell Henderson's still in the game. 146 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: And it's it's the second quarter, Like, you know, Darrell 147 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: Henderson still in the game. I haven't seen cam Akers yet. Uh. 148 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: And I put out on Twitter, you know, how are 149 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: my cam Akers folks feeling? And the response generally was like, 150 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,799 Speaker 1: we're not happy. A lot of folks were very concerned. 151 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: We barely saw cam Akers at all last night. You 152 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: saw the box score there with Darrell Henderson getting the 153 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: majority of the carries, acres carried uply, but three times 154 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: for zero yards, scored zero point zero fantasy points. Um. 155 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is a function of you know, 156 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: him sort of still an extended rehab from the achilles 157 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: from the injury he had during the preseason. I don't 158 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: know if it's a function of the Rams offensive line struggling. 159 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: But this was the very opposite of what people wanted 160 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: when they drafted and or started cam Akers this week. 161 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: You have to think that he will get more work 162 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: as the season goes on. But yeah, like I was 163 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: scratching my head. I was like, all year you said 164 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: it's a it's a combination. These two are the starters. 165 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: It's like, no, Daryl Henderson is clearly the snap says otherwise, like, 166 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: he's clearly the top guy there. And it got so 167 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: bad that one of his three Carrieres it was in 168 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: like the second half, they carried him on second one 169 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: or whatever, and multiple rams fans around me were like, 170 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: why are we giving cam Akers the ball? I was 171 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: like that that's that's how far we've fallen in such 172 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: a short amount of times. In three quarters. This guy 173 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: was supposed to be, uh the next big thing there. 174 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: So we will certainly keep an eye on cam Akers. 175 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: I know. Sean McVeigh said after the game it was 176 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: hard to get into a rhythm offensively, that was why 177 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: they couldn't get Acres and Allen Robinson involved. I want 178 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: to think there's more to it than that, but I 179 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: will take McVeigh at his word and we'll see what 180 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: happens next week. So all right, this is a fantasy 181 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: Q and a show. So we want to get to 182 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: some of your questions here, So let's start with one 183 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: about quarterbacks, this one saying should I take the fool's 184 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: gold and start trade Lance over Kyler Murray? Also same league, 185 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: I'm torn between Briefe Hall of the Jets Damian Pierce 186 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: of the Texans. Let's just handle the quarterback portion of that, right, 187 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: because obviously, Trey Lance was a big hype bunny this offseason. 188 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: He went as a top ten quarterback in most leagues. 189 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray is the guy who's being drafted as a 190 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 1: top five quarterbacks. So honestly, the fact that, uh, this 191 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: guy was able to get both of these guys umps Yeah, 192 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 1: a little bit so. But but coming into week one, 193 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: who do you want? Do you want Trade Lance? Do 194 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: you want Kyler Murray? I want Kyle Mury. Like you 195 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: know in Family Guy where there's that episode where it's 196 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: like a boat is a boat, but a mystery box 197 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 1: could be maybe a boat Tray Lance is a mystery box? 198 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: Who could be Kyler Murray? Like that's how good Kyler 199 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: Murray is for fantasy purposes, I would go with the 200 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: proven commodity there, and and I'm someone that's very high 201 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: on Trey Lance, but I think that the Chiefs and 202 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: Cardinals game has a chance to be the highest scoring 203 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 1: game of the weekend. I think Kyler Murray has a 204 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: chance to be the one of the top scoring quarterbacks 205 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: this week, and Trey Lance his first start in the 206 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: first year. I know it's not a bad match up 207 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: against the Bears, but I would go with Kyler. I'm 208 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: going Kyler to for all the things you said. I mean, 209 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: you're talking about guys who have similar skill sets, right. 210 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: I know Kyler the last couple of years hasn't run 211 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: quite as much, but at his best he can still 212 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: give you seven eight hundred rushing yards over the course 213 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: of the season. He is a more polished passer, without 214 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,719 Speaker 1: a doubt than Trey Lance. And like you said, he's 215 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: playing in a game that figures to have a lot 216 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: more points scored than what I expect to see between 217 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: the forty niners and the Bears this week. So that 218 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: seems like a pretty easy call. Uh. There is another 219 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: part of the question though, about Breeze Hall or Damian Pierce. 220 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: Just quickly, which one would you want this week? I'd 221 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: go Damian Pierce because Michael Carter is still listed right 222 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: now is the RB one. Yeah, I think I think 223 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: Michael Carter's We talked about Darrell Henderson not going away 224 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: for the Rams. Michael Carter is not going away for 225 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: the Jets running back. He's a good running back, and 226 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: I think I think the Jets are more likely to 227 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: use Michael Carter than the Texans are to lead on 228 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: Rex Burkhead agreed. So Damian Pierce fears like feels like 229 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: the answer there. All right, let's moveing on next question. 230 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: Let's see do I start Chris Godwin and Michael Thomas 231 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 1: this week? So this is not an ore, this is 232 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: an and do you start both of those guys this week? 233 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: Because they both come in with question marks this season. 234 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: I would start Michael Thomas. He's been healthy throughout this preseason, 235 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 1: and I've talked about it on other shows, like how 236 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: great he's been in his career against the Falcons and 237 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: just how poor that Falcon secondary has been playing in 238 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: recent years. I would stay away from Chris god when 239 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: I know he missed some practice time this week. We 240 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 1: don't really know if he's even going to suit up 241 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: or not this week yet. Um, but even if he does, 242 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: I just don't expect him to be a hundred saying, 243 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: I don't expect him to be out there on every play. 244 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,719 Speaker 1: I think they'll get eased into it. I'd rather take 245 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 1: a wait and see approach on that one. I think. 246 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: I think that's that's the right answer, at least for 247 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 1: me as well. I would definitely start Michael Thomas this week. Um. Plus, 248 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: I think you know again, going back to points scored, right, 249 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,839 Speaker 1: I think Falcons and Saints have the possibility to be 250 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: a higher scoring game, at least at least on the 251 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: Saints side. I don't know how many points to focus 252 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: are gonna score. I think the Saints can put up 253 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 1: some points against Atlanta. Um, let's see. It's move on 254 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 1: next one. Let's see Courtland Sutton or Hollywood Brown at 255 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 1: flex this one. This one feels tough man. Yeah, you know, 256 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 1: I love Markis Brown, though I have him ranked as 257 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: a wide receiver one this week. I think him and 258 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: Kylier just want to show off, like how good of 259 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: a deep all the connection that's gonna be. But I've 260 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: been lower on Sutton than you, so I'm curious to 261 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 1: see what you think here. I I love Courtland Sutton. 262 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: I've been team Sutton all off season long. But I 263 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: think for this one, I think it's it's Hollywood. I 264 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 1: think it's Marquis Brown. Um, you know, I just think 265 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 1: again we go back to Chiefs and Cardinals. This has 266 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: the potential to be a track meet going back and forth. 267 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: Both those teams can score points. I think when you 268 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 1: talk about the Broncos and the Seahawks, I expect Denver 269 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: to put up a lot of points. I don't think 270 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: the Seahawks are gonna be able to match that, which 271 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: means late in that game, you could see Denver turning 272 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: to Javonta Williams and Melvin Gordon grind like Mayam melgo, 273 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: we can we can't do that. We cannot, we cannot 274 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: validate Adam Ranks terrible nickname from Melvin Gordon. Um. I 275 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: think I think they turned their running game late to 276 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: sort of grind the clock and close it out. I 277 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: think if Chiefs Cardinals is what I think it's gonna be, 278 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: in the game stays relatively close, I think you'll see 279 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: Marcus Brown get a few more targets in the fourth 280 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: quarter of that game. Gotta take a quick break. We'll 281 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: be back in just a few hang around, so let's 282 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: talk about some players that deserve more hype for this weekend. 283 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 1: Let's talk some shot Penny. I feel pretty good about 284 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: Rashad Penny coming into this matchup. I think he deserves 285 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: more hype. I have him ranked as a top twenty 286 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: one running back this week. Last year, from Week fourteen on, 287 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: he was just the best running back in the game. 288 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: You pick a stat he probably led running backs in it. 289 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: Uh and then Kenneth Walker. He might. He might suit up, 290 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: but even if he does, he's missed a lot of preseason. 291 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: He's not a percent yet. I expect this to be 292 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: the Rashade Penny show in week one, and we talked 293 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: about it all the time. No one runs the ball 294 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: more than Pete Carroll. Literally, in his tenure as the 295 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: Seattle coach, no team has ran the ball more than 296 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, So I don't expect that to change. Without 297 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, I think he's gonna try to feed Rashade Penny. 298 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: Like we said, He's gonna try to get that game 299 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: and get it out, not not let the score get 300 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: ran up. And I think that's gonna be his approach 301 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: most games. I think it's gonna have to be his 302 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 1: approach most games, because offensively, I don't know how many 303 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: points they can score. Defensively, they're labled to give up 304 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: a lot of points if the other team has the 305 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: ball for an extended period of time. All right, on 306 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: my side, I'm gonna go Kenneth gaine Well uh for 307 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles going against the Detroit Lions this week. 308 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: And one of the things about gain Well that intrigues 309 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: me is the fact that they used him a lot 310 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: last year in the fourth quarters of games. On paper, 311 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: Miles Sanders is the RB one here, but the Eagles 312 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 1: have never treated him like that. They have treated him 313 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: like a rotational back, and gain Well is the guy 314 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: that maybe he has more upside in the passing game. 315 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: He will get more targets, will catch more passes, and 316 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: just the fact that they do use him in sort 317 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: of close out situations means he's going to be on 318 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: the field a lot. And you know, I think given 319 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: the choice, we always want the guy that's gonna catch 320 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: the football a little bit more. I think the Eagles 321 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: have a chance to go out and get a win 322 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: here early, So I think you're gonna see Keneth game 323 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: will get involved early and often in the Eagles offense. 324 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: I think I think it's gonna be a good start 325 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: and look, with so much attention being paid to A. J. Brown, 326 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: Devanta Smith, Dallas Goddards, I think it's easy to just 327 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: get a couple of little cheap dump off some screen 328 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: passes to Kenneth gain Well and kind of let him 329 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: do his thing in this way. It's what we keep 330 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: saying about like Chase Edmonds, right, Like, if you're so 331 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: worried about the receiver's beating you downfield, it's gonna open 332 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: up everything for the running back underneath. Yeah. Absolutely so, Uh, 333 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: if you got Kenneth gain Well, maybe consider giving him 334 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: a flex spot this week in your lineup so we'll 335 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: how Week one starts for him. Let's get back to 336 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: some more of your questions here on the question and 337 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: answer show that is absolutely fitting this one from where's 338 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: the super super NorVa? Okay, I hope I got that right? 339 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: Sixteen team league, very deep rosters. Who do I flex 340 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: between Melvin Gordon the third that's that's very formal, Curtis, 341 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: Samuel Khalil Herbert and Nihim Hinds. Which one do you like? There? 342 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: For me, this comes down between Melvin Gordon and ahem Hines. 343 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: But Hines is the past catching specialists, and if they're 344 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: playing with the lead, I worry that he could kind 345 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: of be game scripted out. So I'll go with Melgo there. 346 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: I was I'm going to pick Melvin Gordon. I just can't. 347 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: All right, I'll say Melgo Melgo. We're gonna take Melgo 348 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: here because I just think the Broncos are gonna be 349 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: grinding clock in the second half because they're gonna have 350 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: a big lead, So we'll we'll take Melvin al right. 351 00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: Next one, this one from Rico Rice. Would you trade 352 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: away Marquees Valdes Marquez? I believe it's Marquez is the 353 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: correct pronunciation, so let me sure I get that right. 354 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: Marquez Valdes scantling for Albert okui a buon um uh? 355 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: Do you like? Do you like MVS or Albert oh more? 356 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: I love that he hashtaged all of our names, right, 357 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: that's that is that's funny to me. I would go 358 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: with Albert ol there though, I think because I know 359 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: MVS is the starting receiver right now, but I still 360 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: think as a season goes on, sky Moore is gonna 361 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: take more work away. Um and it's just albert Oh 362 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: at the tight end position, Like if you're thin at 363 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: tight end. I think I do believe he brings a 364 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: lot of upside. You know, I have been on the 365 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: the Albert O' hype train pretty much all off season, 366 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: and I sort of looked at it is. I feel 367 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: like these two players will have similar week to week 368 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: point till potentially, and getting say eight to ten points 369 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: out of a tight end is a whole lot better 370 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: than getting eight to ten points out of a wide receiver. 371 00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: You can find wide receivers of of Valdesk Gantlings caliber 372 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: on the waiver wire. You can find those guys pretty 373 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: much anywhere. Um, if if Akoya Boonham turned to be 374 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: the guy that I think he is, he's gonna end 375 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,239 Speaker 1: up being kind of a nice value option, especially on 376 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: your bench, you know, as a streamer or something like 377 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: that occasionally. So I would I would make that trade too. So, Uh, 378 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,400 Speaker 1: there you go, Mr or MS Rice, there's your there's 379 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: your answer. Uh this one, Josh Jacobs, where Brandon Cooks 380 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: at the flex, This is a tough one. I'm gonna 381 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: go with Brandon Cooks. But I don't think there's a 382 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: wrong answer here because I think both are a little 383 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,719 Speaker 1: bit boom or bus kind of options. But I do 384 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: feel that Brandon Cook's volume is so safe. It just 385 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: comes down to David's mill is gonna be able to 386 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: actually connect on him. But I think the Colts will 387 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: have a lead, which means that the Texans will be 388 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: throwing playing from behind, whereas in the other game, I'm 389 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: a little bit concerned if the Chargers get a lead, 390 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: do we see Josh Jacobs kind of fade. There is 391 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: some concern. I'm gonna say Josh Jacobs here just because 392 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: I sort of want to highlight the fact that, at 393 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: least in his career against the Chargers, Josh Jacobs has 394 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: been very good. And I know, you know, everybody has 395 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: been down on him this offseason. No one wants to 396 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: draft Josh Jacobs. We were worried that maybe they were 397 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: gonna trade him at some point because it looked like 398 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: they were showcasing him in the Hall of Fame game 399 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: when he got like eleven d carries in that one. 400 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: But the Charger run defense over the last few years 401 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: has been bottom half of the league, and Jacobs himself 402 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: is average, you know, right around nineteen or so fantasy 403 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: points per game. Uh. In his career against the Chargers, 404 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 1: he's gotten a lot of opportunity. He's found the end zone. 405 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: He's been very successful. So I think this is a 406 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: week where the Raiders, I know, look, they've got Davante 407 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: Adams and they have high hopes for their offense. I 408 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 1: still don't think they can go toe to toe with 409 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: the Chargers offensively, so that means they're going to be 410 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: times where they have to try to slow things down 411 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 1: and run the football. So I can see Josh Jacobs 412 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: getting some work. I also think, you know, the reports 413 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: are Zamir White's not expected to have a big role 414 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 1: in this offense. I mean, maybe we see Brandon Bolden 415 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: or a mirab Doula or somebody that catched the football. Um, 416 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 1: but I don't know, there's a lot of competition for carries. 417 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: If Samir White's not gonna get a lot of work 418 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: in this offense. This new trend of like us hyping 419 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: up rookies for them not to play is one that 420 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: I'm not I don't know, don't like it, do not 421 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: like it. So there you go. We helped you not 422 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: at all with your Jacobs or Cook's questions. You're welcome. 423 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: I still got more of your questions coming up, but 424 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 1: of course you can always hit us up on Twitter 425 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,239 Speaker 1: at NFL Fantasy. We got a few things to get 426 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: through to get a few rapid fire questions here from 427 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: you guys. So let's keep going. Let's jump into some 428 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,120 Speaker 1: of these right now. Let's see. Uh, this one from 429 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: Aaron a better DST option this week Tampa against the 430 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys or Carolina against the Cleveland Browns. One of 431 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: them faces Dak Prescott. The other faces Jacoby ber said, 432 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: you're going against Jacoby Briseid. I think that one that 433 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: was pretty good. Yeah, I think you're good Carolina Panthers 434 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:54,199 Speaker 1: this week. Uh. Next one from Ben Maddie Ice or 435 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson in week one, Russell Wilson in the revenge game. 436 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: He's gonna be showing off a little bit. Ronco's Treat's right. 437 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: Last one here in our rapid fire section. Uh, this one? 438 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: Did I mess up by picking Joe Mixon over Nagi Harris. 439 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: That's a good problem to have, Yeah, I don't think so. 440 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: I had mixing ranked higher, and even people who had 441 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: it the other way around, they were always very very close. Yeah, 442 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: they're pretty much back to back in a lot of 443 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 1: people's rankings. So if you got Joe Mixing, you're fine. Um, 444 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, who knows. Maybe Naji is slightly better. But 445 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna be big enough of a 446 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: gap that you're gonna feel bad about it at the 447 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: end of the season. Uh Hey, let's let's kind of 448 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,199 Speaker 1: go around the worldwide webs some interesting things that have 449 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: popped up on the interwebs over the last week two weeks. However, long, um, 450 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: something from I'm on raw St Brown somebody slid into 451 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: a R S B S d M. S Uh I 452 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: haven't seen this. I see look on your face. I 453 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: am very new to all of this. Uh Yo, what 454 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,479 Speaker 1: I can't even read that from here? But you had 455 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: an interesting d M. You have to Basically, he said, like, 456 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: you're on my fantasy team now. So if you drop 457 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: a pass, you run a mile, you miss a blocking assignment, 458 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: you run a mile, you fumble the football, and I 459 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: will do something with my foot that I don't want 460 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: to say, and you will then run a mile. It's 461 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: a movie. Herman Boone quote from Remember the Titans. But 462 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: I don't think a monrail St Brown has seen that movie, 463 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: because he was like, I'm at a loss for words. Uh, yes, somebody, 464 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: somebody should get him a copy of Remember the Titans. 465 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: I'm sure it's like it's gotta be streaming somewhere, right, 466 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: like you can sit down and take a couple hours 467 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: and watch. It's hilarious to me that if a football 468 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: player is like this guy really takes someone to run 469 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 1: a mile. If I messed up for his fantasy team, 470 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: oh that you know, I was saying this though, it 471 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: takes guts to even DM that to us an NFL 472 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: player and for him to respond right, So that but 473 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: it makes me wonder, though, did this person dm that 474 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: to everybody on this fantasy roster? Like is everybody getting one? 475 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: I really hope. So you know, like, did did Christian 476 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: McCaffrey get a d M saying? You know, would you 477 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: know John round hind parts that whole thing? That that's 478 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: that's pretty good. Uh. This one about basically being a 479 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: doctor versus being a fantasy football manager. This was this 480 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: was going around. I saw this on Twitter quite a bit. 481 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: Oh your boyfriend's a doctor, where my boyfriend is now 482 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: the coach of an imaginary football team for the next 483 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: four months. Ha ha, Rachel, that's funny. I'm not a coach. 484 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: I'm a general manager, all right, get it right. So, 485 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,880 Speaker 1: but that is sort of our life. We don't draw 486 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,199 Speaker 1: plays for our guys. They handled that themselves. We just 487 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: we tell them who's on our team and who's gonna start. 488 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 1: We make personnel decisions, okay. Everything else is like the 489 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: actual coaches of the NFL team. So like, get your 490 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 1: facts straight, Rachel, before you come at us with stuff 491 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: like this. Um, what is more impressive though, being a 492 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: doctor or winning your fantasy football league?
