00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: to talk fantasy. Hopefully we're here in this podcast though,

28
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: to start things out in a high note, all right,

29
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: we got a great show in front of us lined

30
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: up today. We're gonna talk about some deep sleepers, maybe

31
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: some early week four pickups. We will of course cover

32
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: every damn for you. We'll close out with daily depths.

33
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: When we start with your top headlines and your first

34
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: headline out of my ammy, jay a Ji. We got

35
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: a lot of running back question marks here. But j

36
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: Ji did not practice Wednesday. He's got a sore knee.

37
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: Sounds like he might not practice all week, but he

38
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: is expected to play. It's a London homecoming for j J.

39
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: I remember how much concerned though after his eleven Carrey

40
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:23,399
Speaker 1: sixteen yard performance versus the New York Jets, especially considering

41
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,519
Speaker 1: the injury. Especially considering Remember he came in to the

42
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: whole draft process with this whole uh concerns over a

43
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: degenerative knee condition, and now he's got this knee issue

44
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: flaring up right now. Um, how much concerned math franchise? Uh? None? Zero? Yeah,

45
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: I mean the Saints. It's a prime bound bounce back

46
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: spot for him against the Saints defense, that's I mean,

47
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: it wasn't in a prime spot against the Jets. Well, yeah,

48
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: but the Jets were at home, and you know, the

49
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 1: Dolphins came in there all the way from the West Coast,

50
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: and the Dolphins have been bouncing around the country the

51
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: first couple of weeks. Now they go to London. It's

52
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 1: it's a tough travel schedule early in the year. But

53
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: I think it's a good spot for the Dolphins entire

54
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: offensive bounce back against the Saints. Wiz. I'm not worried

55
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: about especially long term too. I mean, it's just it's

56
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: one of those things you can't sweat, like what are

57
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: you gonna do? Sit here? Like, oh my god, his

58
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: nat Like we have no idea if we you know,

59
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 1: the same case with Marco Marian his hamstring last week.

60
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: That's true, Like his hamstrings injury were like, oh wait,

61
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: you know, here comes and then there goes to Marco Murray.

62
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: So I just I don't I'm not gonna sweat jj

63
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: I in his neat thing. I think that's just always

64
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: going to be there for him, and we know he's

65
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: a great player, so you just be prepared to swap

66
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: him out if he's out. I would say this though,

67
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: keep Kenyan Drake circled wrong back. Bro Look, man, I

68
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: know I know that it's Damian Williams. I know it's

69
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: it's some combination of Kenyan Drake and Damian Williams. But

70
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: unless I'm missing something here with Kenyan Drake, he was.

71
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: He was in the off season getting all the first

72
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: team reps in the base packages there for Miami, so

73
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: he played on. He went out for more snaps last week,

74
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: but like all in the fourth quarter for the Dolphins,

75
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: didn't get on the field until late in the game.

76
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: When I left the game, they put Damian Williams right in.

77
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: There was more of the case last year too. It

78
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: was You're right, no, it was the case last year.

79
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: But again, the the off season, you know, you guys

80
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: talk about drum beats all the time, but the off season,

81
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: you know, practice reports, we're showing that Kenyan Drake was

82
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: actually working with the bas offense uh there in Miami.

83
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: So that would be my that would be my hunch.

84
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: But again it's a hunch. Yeah, we're all working on

85
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: hunches here, we don't. We don't really like there's no

86
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,119
Speaker 1: clear cut, like, all right, number this is the number

87
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: two back. I would probably prefer Damian Williams just because

88
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 1: I think he's probably a better early down guy. I

89
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: think he profiles better that way, but the goal line guy.

90
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: But either way, gross, each each of Damien Williams and

91
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake have a combined four carries on the season

92
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: compared to Jist Hello. So so neither of these guys

93
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: are gonna be factors if he is out there. Just

94
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: names to know, names to know right now. Melvin Gordon

95
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: there for l A has not practiced as a Wednesday.

96
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: We're recording early Thursday, and it's a West Coast team,

97
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: so they haven't hit the practice field quite yet. Um.

98
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 1: But again he's like with an issue as well. What

99
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 1: would you tell fantasy managers out there? Matt Harmon pick

100
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 1: up Brandon Oliver. Uh, he's a guy that I've added

101
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,279
Speaker 1: on a couple of rosters this week. He looks like

102
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: the clear cut. He looks like the clear cut number

103
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: two back, where as opposed to in Miami, we don't

104
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: have one. Uh, Melvin Gordon is likely to play. That's

105
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: what Anthony Lynn said on Serious Radio this morning. So

106
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 1: there's that. But but Melvin Gordon's a guy who's been

107
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 1: getting banged up pretty much since he's been in the NFL.

108
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: Like he's missed a couple of games in his rookie year,

109
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: He's missed a couple of games in his second year.

110
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: So I think Oliver is definitely like a priority hold

111
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: right now. C J pro Sise dealing with what Pete

112
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 1: Carroll has described as a quote significant ankle injury all

113
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: but ruled out for Sunday versus the Colts. He could

114
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: be out for a while if we're kind of listening

115
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: to what is in between the lines here. But your thoughts,

116
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: Matt Franchise, My thoughts are this is a prime spot

117
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: for Chris Carson to have a big game against the Colts.

118
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: He could have a huge game. We already know. Look,

119
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: c J pros Sis as their pass catching back. I

120
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: think Carson slides into that role easily. You know, we

121
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: saw Eddie Lacey and Thomas Rawl sort of be phased

122
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: out of this run game and the Colts. People talk

123
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: about the Colts having a good run defense, that's not

124
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: a lie. I think they're only allowing about eighty five

125
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: rush yards per game. But they gave up RB six

126
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: performance to Girly in week one. Week two they faced

127
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: a David Johnson list Cardinals, and then week three Duke

128
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: Johnson was RB nine against them. So I also wonder too,

129
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: it's it's you you mentioned those teams. What do those

130
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: teams want to get done? Right? So? And I think

131
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: about what Seattle wants to get done. They want to

132
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 1: run the ball. I think when Arizona plays the Colts,

133
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: they would like to throw the ball, quite honestly. And

134
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 1: the Colts defense, I mean, it's one of those units

135
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: where you feel like you could pretty much do whatever

136
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: you want against that unit. And it with the Browns

137
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: game last week. They fell behind pretty early. The final

138
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: score looks a lot closer than the game was. The

139
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: Browns really came roaring back in the second half, uh

140
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 1: and they had some more suits and not to mention like,

141
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: I just think that you want to be looking at

142
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: the spot here for Chris Carson more, which is like

143
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: they're a heavy home favorite and that's going to give

144
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: him a lot of carries even if the matchup is

145
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: not great. Yeah, and again I do think Sienna wants

146
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: to run that rock quite a bit. Um can I

147
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: can I talk to you guys though about Thomas Rawls.

148
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: I've seen him on a lot of waiver wires and

149
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: people are dropping him in masks. We will allow that.

150
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: I wanted to get your thoughts on this because to me,

151
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: I don't think Thomas Rawls is a drop even if

152
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: Chris Carson is dominating right now. It's a situation where

153
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: I think in Seattle, if Thomas Rawles starts to come

154
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: back a little bit, I think he could win that

155
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: starting job back. And and again, I know fantasy managers

156
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: are super hyped on Chris Carson. Of course I'm I'm

157
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: hyped on him as well, But I just don't think

158
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: Thomas Rawls is is a guy that should be left

159
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire. But maybe I'm crazy. I'd stash

160
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: him if I have the bench space, but I wouldn't

161
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: go crazy about it and drop somebody that's gonna give

162
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: me more reliable production if I'm you know, streaming a

163
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: position or have a lot of depth at wide receiver.

164
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,119
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll did say this week that Rawls didn't Rawles

165
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: only played one snap last week. I don't think he

166
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: had to carry, and he said there just wasn't enough

167
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: work in the backfield to get him in there, which

168
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: signals to me, Chris Carson is definitely the guy. But

169
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: also in games where they're gonna be running more and

170
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: it's going to be more of a run heavy game

171
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: like volume for the backs, maybe we see Rawls kind

172
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: of work in there, you know, to spell Carson in

173
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: certain situations. Thomas Rawles still recovering a little bit from

174
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: from his offseason injury, so something to keep an eye on.

175
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll doesn't run committees there, so just something to

176
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: keep an eye on, all right. Andrew Luck reportedly close

177
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: to returning dot dot dot to practice, not to the game.

178
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: He is of course out this week, but could be

179
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: back at practice next week. UM, the original prognosis was

180
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,319
Speaker 1: him coming back around you know, week five or six.

181
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: Is he worth an ad if he's available on the

182
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: Waiver Wire, I'm not adding him yet because there's also

183
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: rumors swirling uh and other people. I think it was

184
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: like the pro guy pro football doc on Twitter said

185
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: then Luck would probably need at least four weeks of practice,

186
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: which wouldn't put him in game condition until November. And like,

187
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,319
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna saddle myself with with a quarterback that's

188
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: not even playing on my bench for a month plus.

189
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: I think I think we just have to wait. Now.

190
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: This is encouraging, but hold off. I would say this though,

191
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: right for the Colts, they're one of those teams. They're

192
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: they're very Patriots, like where they tell you stuff, but

193
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: it's very cryptic. So I'm just I'm wondering how much

194
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: work he's getting done away from the media. They're they're

195
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 1: not as good as as the Patriots. True. True, that's

196
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 1: very true, very true. Indeed, the Vikings, speaking of quarterbacks,

197
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: are hopeful to have Sam Bradford back Sunday versus Detroit,

198
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: but he did not practice on Wednesday. Um again, I'll

199
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: ask you, Matt Harmon, what do you do here with

200
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs. I mean, obviously we know that he had

201
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: a huge game, but is it possible the case Gadoms

202
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 1: comes back to earth, even against a Detroit secondary that has,

203
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: you know, given up a lot of past yards, I

204
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 1: think this game could be pretty decently high scoring. Uh,

205
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: and therefore I want to side on getting those Vikings

206
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: in the lineup. I mean, I just don't know how.

207
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: I'm never going to tell you to bench digs, period.

208
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna tell you to do in week two

209
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: that was wrong. I wasn't gonna tell you to do

210
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: in week three that was correct. But so maybe whatever

211
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: happens week four happens week four. I think he's still

212
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: gonna be in a good spot here. He's not going

213
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: to go for a buck seventy three and two or

214
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: whatever he did last week. But I agree with you,

215
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: I think this game could be sneakily high scoring because

216
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: the Minnesota defense at home is frightening. But Matt Stafford

217
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: has a lot of weapons, and his weapons are in

218
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: good positions, and we'll get more of this and matchup.

219
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: But like Golden Tate will be able to avoid Xavier

220
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: Rhodes and can help with the chains and stuff. So

221
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 1: I think you got to start those guys and keenom

222
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: you know, as as I think franchise mentioned on one

223
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 1: of the podcasts that he'll have more time to practice,

224
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: which we saw last week, and that offensive line is

225
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: giving them protection to still, so that's a that's a

226
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: big factor as well. Hey, this is big news. Willy

227
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: Sneeve is back. It's exciting fantasy fall out here. I'd

228
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: love to get to your thoughts. I was wrong. I

229
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 1: wrote up this in the matchup two. I think it's like,

230
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: if you're feeling dangerous, you can start really sneed because

231
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: the New Orleans offense hasn't been up to its usual

232
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: standards thus far this year, and you think maybe the

233
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: fact of missing Sneed could be part of that. They've

234
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: gotten good production on a Brandon Coleman, They've gotten some

235
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: plays out of Ted Gain and stuff, but I feel

236
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: like I play, I mean, that's the Ted, that's the

237
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 1: Ted Gain lifestyles experience. You'd drop a deep touchdown, you

238
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: catch a deep touch for it is. I think Silva

239
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: made this point, like every week's revenge game for Ted.

240
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: That's that's true. This is revenge games because Miami drafted

241
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: him right forgetting that. So that's like original revenge, like

242
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 1: original sin, original revenge. But I think Sneed I have to.

243
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: I'll have to get in the lab and work on

244
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: this is like we did that Terrell Prior revenge game

245
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: last week. I guess it didn't pan out because told

246
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: you different positional things doesn't count. I don't know. Anyways,

247
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: what do you do? What is tupid discussion that's filed

248
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,439
Speaker 1: off into But I think sneed is an interesting play.

249
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: I mean, there is concerned that, Yes, he hasn't been

250
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: with the team for three weeks, but he was with

251
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: the team all offseason and practicing before this happened, So

252
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 1: it's not like he's coming in super cold. But it's

253
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: a dangerous spot, but it's it's a it's a risky

254
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: play because he could have limited usage, but it's a

255
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: great matchup. Did I see a Sean Payton quote saying

256
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: that you know they weren't sure how much he was

257
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 1: going to be used on his first game back, and

258
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: that they were trying to work him in a little.

259
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 1: I mean that would make a lot of sense. Obviously,

260
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: he's been away from the team for for a hot

261
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: minute here right exactly, so nearly a month here, So

262
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: why do you keep because it's hot in this closet? Man,

263
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 1: I don't know I'm getting steaming. I'm sure like coffee too.

264
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: For those those thing like ten minutes ago, Harmon like

265
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: unbuttoned all the buttons on his his shirt and I

266
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: looked at him and he's like fanning us. All it's

267
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: hot now he's just taking off this takes are the

268
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: takes are getting hot. I'm drinking because it's in the morning.

269
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: Plus we're in the closet. Plus we're in this We're

270
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: in this closet from the bunker. Keep up the good fight, folks.

271
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, what what's that? Oh? Man? Um?

272
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about some deep sleepers here. Dirt slippers.

273
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 1: Dirt slippers. Um, I'll start because it's an extension of

274
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: the news. Carlos Hide dealing with the hip injury, not

275
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 1: expected to practice all week. If Matt thought he has

276
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: been practicing limited all week? Was what I saw? Oh?

277
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: Is it? I just thought? I thought, I literally just

278
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: read that they were planning on keeping limited limited in

279
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: Wednesday's practice. All right, well, maybe he'll be limited all

280
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: Shanahan expects him to be limited all week, per cam

281
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: Inman on Twitter. There it is, and he has expected

282
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: to play on Sunday of course. Um, but just given

283
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: the hip injury, just given his history, I think Matt

284
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 1: Brida is at least worth a pickup. If you have

285
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: the space on your team, he's worth the pickup. Now, again,

286
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: you're not going to play him here in Week four

287
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: because Carlos Hide is expected to go. But if you

288
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,319
Speaker 1: have the space, I think Matt Brida is a smart ad.

289
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 1: And again, you know, if Carlos I does get hurt

290
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: and he's got an injury history, pretty deep injury history. Really,

291
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: Matt Breeder would be one of the top waiver wire

292
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,599
Speaker 1: guys to go pick up. So um, get ahead of

293
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: the curve here a little bit, and if he's available

294
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire, see if he's available, go pick

295
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: him up. All right, Matt Harmon gave me a deep

296
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: sleeper and or an early week four pick up. Yeah,

297
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: this is somebody I definitely don't want to play this week.

298
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: But and I don't even know if I really want

299
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: to pick up, but it's something worth monitoring. Juju Smith Schuster,

300
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: the rookie receiver for these Steelers, has seen his playing

301
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: time UH increase. After going out for twenty two plays

302
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: in week one, thirty six and week two, he was

303
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: up to over or excuse me, he was up to

304
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: over almost fifty plays in week three. He saw sixty

305
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: one of his lineups from the slot, which is I

306
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: think a nice position for him, is kind of that

307
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: big slot player. Uh. The Steeler's offense not firing on

308
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: all cylinders. We can definitely talk about that later, but

309
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: if they get right, we want to be interested in

310
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: anybody seeing significant playing time in this offense. So I

311
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 1: think he's somebody to to worth monitor. A little bit

312
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: of breaking news here from Ian Rappaport. He says Saint's

313
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: running back Adrian Peterson tweaked his knee a little bit

314
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: in practice today. Sounds like his absence was a mix

315
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: of a knee and a veteran day at practice. He

316
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: still plays. Oh man, really, I'm I'm pissed about Peterson

317
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: because because yeah, he's one of those players that like,

318
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: I don't even want I think. I feel like I've

319
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: ranked about this on the pod before, we've been doing

320
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: it again. He's one of those players like I don't

321
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: even like, I don't really want to get it be

322
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: involved with, not a fan, but I let ADP dictate

323
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: the pick for him because I'm like, he shouldn't be

324
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: here this late. Man, He's could be a touchdown back

325
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: in my high scoring offense, and he's on like so

326
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: many of my teams, and he's don't know what to

327
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: do with him, and I'm just sick of looking at

328
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: and drop him that same But I can't see a

329
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: cut at this point. I think so, But I like,

330
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 1: but you know, do I really want to cut him

331
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: for like, you know, just some JABRONI just to cut him?

332
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if I want to When mark Ingram

333
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: gets hurt, you'll regret it, right, you want to keep

334
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: him in his nine carries for twenty one yards a

335
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: game on your bench. That's not like, that's what a

336
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: lot of guys are get these days, just keeping him

337
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: fresh for a playoff rount guys. So sorry, sorry to

338
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: hijack that for my own tears. Before you left, jujus

339
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: Mith Schuster was gonna say he has three red zone

340
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: targets already in the in three games. Yeah, so yeah,

341
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: I like. I like that call. He's getting important usage alright.

342
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 1: Franch hip me with a deep slaper slash early Week

343
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: four pick up. Yeah, I think if you are a

344
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: Jordan Read owner, you have to add Vernon Davis right

345
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: now before these games. The Redskins play Monday night, so

346
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: you against the Chief. So there's no other options. If

347
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: Read doesn't go, Like if he starts, you gotta start Read,

348
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: even if he is banged up. If he doesn't start,

349
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 1: you can plug Vernon Davis. And he had five catches

350
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: on five targets last week for the Redskins and a

351
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: touchdown fifty eight yards. Harmon was joking yesterday with me

352
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: that it seems like Read, uh, seven year old Read

353
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: and thirty three old Vernon Davis has have changed bodies,

354
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: souls have switched some sort of Vernon liked you made.

355
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: It's some sort of like Wicker ritual or some sort

356
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: of spiritual encounter thing where they have switched souls. Because

357
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: Davis looks like the young athletic freakouts crazy. It's it's

358
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,959
Speaker 1: unbelievable and in Vernon Davis years. I tweeted that during

359
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: the game last week because like he's thirty three years

360
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: only the juke and fools out of their shoes looks

361
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 1: he looks unbelievable. Raiders just split out all over the field. Yeah,

362
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: Vernon Davis, it's interesting. I mean when Vernon Davis was

363
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: in his prime. He was doing those kind of things.

364
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: He was an athletic freak, but we have not seen that, dude.

365
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: He did have a lot of regress athletically like he

366
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 1: had was at the peak. Maybe now he's like at

367
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: the eight percentile, just like twenty ahead of guys like

368
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: Jason went. But with you know, with with the Redskins

369
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: pass catchers kind of struggling there. I think Cousins kind

370
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: of has eyes for that tight end position. And he

371
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 1: has a report Davis. So alright, I like it. He's

372
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 1: been on the team. What now, this is his third year,

373
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: the second, second year was last year his first year,

374
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: and last year is his first. Interesting, alright, whisky, what

375
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 1: you got? Sleeper early He is a man with tiny

376
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 1: hands but lightning quick speed, and he's coming back from

377
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 1: injury with an ascending young quarterback Will Fuller. Guys long

378
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: forgotten about him coming back broken collarbone, broken collar bone.

379
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: He's been practicing. He could play this week, I'm guessing.

380
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm guessing he might not, or if he is, he's

381
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: extremely limited. But next week they get the Chiefs on

382
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: Monday night football could be a high scoring game, and

383
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: the week after that the Browns interesting, Will Fuller is

384
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 1: there This passing attack could be hitting its stride a

385
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: little bit with Watson, and we know he you know,

386
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: he can't like to like to check a deep on

387
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 1: a kid. So and if there's gonna be somebody that

388
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: profiles that, it's obviously the speed demon Will Fuller. So

389
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: I like it, you know what. And it's good too

390
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: because it opens up the door, opens up opportunities, I think.

391
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 1: Um anyways, for New Copkins, right, yes, a little bit

392
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: less double coverage over the top, so that will be

393
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 1: end their best receiver, Bruce Ellington. And just that New

394
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 1: Copkins doesn't need to get pummels targets. That's also good.

395
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: There you go, all right, let's do E D G

396
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: every damn game. We'll start in London room. Remember this

397
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 1: is early, folks, set your lineups. If you not Saturday,

398
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: if exactly, don't mess around man. If you've got some Saints,

399
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: if you've got some Dolphins, set your line up early. Man.

400
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 1: This sucks too because like last week it was like

401
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 1: the Ravens and Jags. Who cares? But like these are

402
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 1: important fantasy like you don't want to somehow get yourself

403
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: screwed in like crap, Michael Thomas, I don't know. Last

404
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 1: week was the defensive runoff game. This game could legitimately

405
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 1: have like sixty points scored in it between these offenses.

406
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 1: I think you're starting all your Saints. It's great too

407
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,439
Speaker 1: that this is a weird like London narrative, but the

408
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 1: Saints traveled there early in the week and have been

409
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: practicing all week. I been seeing hilarious stuff on Twitter,

410
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 1: like Cam Jordan was like, get your beans out of

411
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: my breakfast, Like I don't want him in there because

412
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 1: like a traditional like British breakfast has beans in it,

413
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,640
Speaker 1: and I don't want that. This is the random things

414
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: that up. But this good because it's a big time difference,

415
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 1: and you see this with teams that go early versus

416
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: show up late, which the Dolphins are. I don't think

417
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: they're flying there until yesterday today or Friday. Franchise noted

418
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: they've been flying all over the freak. They've had a

419
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: brutal they missed one, they totally brutal. Where'd they go?

420
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: They flew west two weeks early, back to the East

421
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: coast New York, down to Miami, across to London. So

422
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: I think Drew Brees is going to smash this week. Um,

423
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: I'm okay with mark Ingram is a low in flex,

424
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: especially if Peterson's banged up. Now he's been leading that

425
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: backfield and touches and like he's just a safe floor.

426
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: But if like he takes over more of a role

427
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 1: and gets it gets into the end zone, you're in

428
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,479
Speaker 1: a great spot. You want to start Michael Thomas this week.

429
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: I already mentioned Willie Sneedds kind of a dangerous play,

430
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: but that's what it is. Kolbe Fleaner, I'm worried about

431
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 1: him now that Snead's back and everything has been changing.

432
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 1: He played last last week and had a fewer targets.

433
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 1: So dog just dump him, just kick him with the curb.

434
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: He's getting the boat. We're obviously not starting any defense

435
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: in this game. Jay Cutler, I mean last week was

436
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 1: a right matchup and we all called that he was

437
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 1: gonna fall in his face. So this week, I guess

438
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 1: it's probably the j Color bounce back, right. I think

439
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,399
Speaker 1: there's too many good streaming options this week for me

440
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 1: to go back to the Color. There are there are

441
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: too many, But maybe if you want to make a

442
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 1: daily line up with him. But just like always said

443
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: last week, you can do that and then be ready

444
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: to hate your stuff in three hours. Absolutely, what it is,

445
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: the tilt is gonna be unreal. As long as he

446
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 1: plays is good. I think Devanta Parker is in a

447
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: great spot. Yeah, buddy Landry PPR obviously, and that's Stills

448
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 1: if you need a deep shot. And I think she

449
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 1: had ten targets last game. Oh god, that's right. It's

450
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 1: a good revenge game because he got traded and I

451
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: think he was kind of butt heared about that. Yeah,

452
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: oh yeah, still's revenge game. Top twenty receiver. Just by

453
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 1: the way, Uh, I think food take here, beans and

454
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 1: breakfast not bad? No, I like a British back like

455
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 1: I had, it's like a burrito or something. Well that's different,

456
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 1: but I had, I had said, though, that's what I

457
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: don't understand. How is that different? Well, I just mean,

458
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,920
Speaker 1: like you you're expecting the beans to be in a burrito,

459
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: that's one thing. But like I had, and I posted

460
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 1: this on my Instagram when I was in Montreal a

461
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: couple of months ago, Like just a big plate of

462
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: breakfast suit and then like a little bit of beans

463
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 1: in there. It was a good mix. So camberon Jordan's

464
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 1: get your stuff together, bro, Like it's good. You have

465
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: to know what to do with it, like you want

466
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: to I want like with a sausage and toast, Like

467
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 1: that's that's good. That's a nice party breakfast. I don't know,

468
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: it's a precursor to a nap, Like it's not a

469
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: let me eat this before I go to work sort

470
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: of breakfast. But you know, or play a football game. Well,

471
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 1: I'm sure that's not what they're slamming back before they

472
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: are we sure discussion of breast? Exactly where are we here?

473
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: Carolina traveling to New England. Calvin Benjamin didn't practice Wednesday

474
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 1: with that knee injury. I would be absolutely shocked if

475
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 1: he plays Sunday versus the Pats, But we shall see.

476
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: Matt Harmon, what do you got on this game? Wolf?

477
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: Carolina is in a rough spot, are they? The Pats

478
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 1: defense has been I know, bad, but you know they've

479
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: been bad. They can't really pass protect right now. Ryan

480
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,040
Speaker 1: Khalil missing the last couple of games has been a

481
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 1: big deal to their running game, especially and Carolina is

482
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: just I mean, they're they're top two pass catching threats

483
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: outside of Christian McCaffrey, Greg Olsen and Kelvin Benchman not there.

484
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: It's a huge deal. I mean they're relying on guys

485
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 1: like Devin Funchius and Ed Dixon, which is not where

486
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,919
Speaker 1: you want to be, smarts. The name of Russell Shepherd, listen, Well,

487
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: he's barely on the field. I mean he might he

488
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 1: might get out there more now after a week one.

489
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: That is. Actually it's pretty decent. Look, I have an

490
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,919
Speaker 1: appreciation for us Russell Shepherd and and the Patriots have

491
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: given up a lot of production to slot receivers and

492
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: he's been running routes out of the slot, so that

493
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 1: is you know, I don't know if I can ever

494
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: recommend you do that, but that's something to watch. Yeah,

495
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit of danger Zone. Actually, I have

496
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 1: so many danger zone guys this week because there's so

497
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 1: many interesting matchups out there. There definitely is so but

498
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: and the biggest problem, of course, like the elephant in

499
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 1: the room, is the fact that Cam Newton's just clearly

500
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: not there yet. He ain't right man, Yeah, he's he's

501
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 1: definitely still struggling, uh, coming off this shoulder injury. And

502
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 1: you know it's a mess right now. The only you

503
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: can really count on in Carolina is the fact that

504
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 1: Chris McCaffrey likely gets a lot of balls throwing his

505
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: way in negative game script In New England on the

506
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: Patriot side, I like Mike Gillesley because they should be

507
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: a heavy home favorite. That that is New England, and

508
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: those are the type of games where you want to

509
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 1: roll the two down banger out there. Uh. And in

510
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: the passing game, I mean you kind of you kind

511
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 1: of know what you're getting yourself into at this point.

512
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 1: It's gronk. Brandon Cooks is volatile, It's a pretty decent

513
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 1: spot for him. And Chris Hogan is he isn't like

514
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 1: that low end wide receiver three, wide receiver four territory

515
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: to me where I don't really I don't really want

516
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: to know if I want to be counting on him

517
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:40,199
Speaker 1: at this point. Okay, Pittsburgh taking on Baltimore franchise, what

518
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: you got? Uh? This matchup is an interesting one. Historically

519
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 1: these games are always low scoring. True, since two thousand

520
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 1: and eight, including postseason games, Steelers average nineteen point two

521
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: points per game. Ravens average twenty point six in these

522
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 1: division matchups. So uh that even feels high. I would

523
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,399
Speaker 1: have guessed it was yeah, yeah, and and then you

524
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 1: know that's not a lot of points. Uh. And the

525
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,679
Speaker 1: Ravens are coming back from this smashing in London against

526
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 1: the Jaguar, so hopefully they're looking to get right. Both

527
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,959
Speaker 1: defenses are pretty solid. I would you know, everyone's kind

528
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: of off the Ravens defense. It's a good bounce back spot.

529
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: Like Harmon said, Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh's offense is not firing. You're

530
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,199
Speaker 1: still starting Left Bell, You're still starting Antonio Brown. I

531
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: don't think you can go with Mark Tavis Bryant. He

532
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: has had three or fewer receptions in each game this year.

533
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: Like we said on Monday, he's one of those guys

534
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 1: who really needs a big play to pop off um

535
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: and then on the raven side, Flacco has been one

536
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,479
Speaker 1: of the worst quarterbacks in Fantasy this year. Quarterback twenty

537
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: five and Week one disc in his back. I mean,

538
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: can you really play him at this point? Shout to

539
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: you that tweeted us that Kareem Hunt has more rushing

540
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 1: yards than Joe Flacco has passing art that's crazy. He

541
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 1: was the QB fourteen a week two, and then last

542
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,159
Speaker 1: week he was the QB thirty seven. Which means you

543
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: could have started quarterbacks you had. You could have started

544
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: Davis Webb, who had zero points. Flacco had negative point

545
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: two point eight eight points. The other thing with Flacco,

546
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: he he's failed to complete a pass of ten plus

547
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,400
Speaker 1: are yards in two of three games this year, which

548
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: is not good for him. It's not good for his

549
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: wide receivers, it's not good for anyone. The only guy

550
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: I think you can kind of start with confidence on

551
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: the Ravens offense is Buck Allen. We saw Chicago kind

552
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: of ripped Pittsburgh up on the ground game last week.

553
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: Chicago's running backs combined for nine receptions against Pittsburgh. Buck

554
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,679
Speaker 1: Allen gets work in that aspect, So I kind of

555
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: like Alan is maybe like a high end flex against

556
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: the Steelers. I will say I looked at this too.

557
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: Sorry to cut you off, but Alex Collins, like people

558
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 1: were worried about him, seven of his nine carries came

559
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter when the Ravens were down forty

560
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,880
Speaker 1: four to zero. He's just a stash. He's he's he's

561
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: a stash, So don't don't be worried about the word.

562
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: Yeah he's. I think he's good because because he's in

563
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: a question backfield with question mark and running like running

564
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 1: back first is real. I don't know. I mean not

565
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 1: like not a priority stash, but he's just something to

566
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,160
Speaker 1: keep an eye on. What I was gonna say is

567
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: just let's just get this on the record, you know,

568
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: with I think the biggest problem with Pittsburgh right now

569
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 1: is your quarterback. Their quarterbacks not playing well. But he

570
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: doesn't play well on the road. Yeah, the ravens of

571
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,920
Speaker 1: a tough defense that I think. I think you got it.

572
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: I think you've got to find those mind games. This

573
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 1: is one of those weeks you you bench Big Ben

574
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: and pick up one of these. I don't. I think

575
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 1: you can cut Big Ben like right now because look this,

576
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,199
Speaker 1: like I said, this offense is dysfunctional, like there's just

577
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: too many quarterback options and quite frankly, like I know,

578
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 1: a friend of the show, Justice Muskata, tweeted this out

579
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 1: yesterday that everybody talking about Cam doesn't look right. Palmer

580
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: doesn't look right. Uh, and he was like, why are

581
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: we not talking about Roethlisberger. I'm like, why have we

582
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,880
Speaker 1: not been talking about Roethlisberger this way for like a year?

583
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: He doesn't looked good in the last in the last

584
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: calendar year at this point. So I don't know, He's

585
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 1: just not a guy that until this offense is firing

586
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 1: on all cylinders, I don't really have any interest in

587
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 1: playing Ben period, home road, whatever. And I think you

588
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 1: raise a good point too, though, that we want to like,

589
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 1: there's an affinity that a lot of fantasy players have,

590
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 1: especially casual players for big name quarterbacks like Big Ben

591
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: Cam and stuff like that, wanting to pick up lot.

592
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: But we cannot be attached to these guys if they're

593
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,880
Speaker 1: not doing anything because Lewis and pick up somebody that's

594
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:17,679
Speaker 1: going points. I think the reason there was so much

595
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: optimism for Big Ben those because he had all those

596
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 1: big four where there oh yeah, and it makes sense.

597
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 1: But I just think he's as a I mean, the

598
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 1: guy was talking about retiring, true, Like I think he's

599
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 1: just he's in decline as and I don't think you

600
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 1: can make the same throws the same plays, you know.

601
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: And it's funny just talking not to get on a

602
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 1: tangent here, but like talking quarterback is meaningless, tight end

603
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: is meaningless. Kickers suck, defenses suck. Like it's basically like

604
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: who's got the best running backs? And receivers is really

605
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: all fantasy is, and the rest of it is just like,

606
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, good play literally any quarterback, and good

607
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 1: luck at that tight end position. Oh man, why are

608
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: we doing this again? It was coming up just with

609
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 1: a blow towards to the entire fantasy. Come on, man,

610
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: Ja's taking on the Jets bad for day week to

611
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: week as he's dealing with a toe injury, unlikely to

612
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 1: play on Sunday. Um if you thought this was gonna

613
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: be a two man rotation though New York. The Jets

614
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: then went out and signed another flipping pass catching running

615
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: back in Travares Cadet. So it's Elijah McGuire, it's bullaal

616
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: Pala now Travares Cadet in New York. What an interesting

617
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: signing that was. But Alex Gelhar your thoughts here, Well,

618
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: I think we'll start with the Jets since that was

619
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: kind of the lead in. I think Powell's Powell is

620
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: actually like a decent start this week. I agree he's

621
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,719
Speaker 1: he's figures to be the lead guy like Elijah McGuire,

622
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 1: will mix in, but Pawel's got pass catching upside. The

623
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 1: Jags event haven't been that great against the run. Either,

624
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: So I think I think he's in a good spot.

625
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: I don't know that I'm starting anybody else on the Jets,

626
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: maybe streaming Austin's, Ferrie and Jenkins since uh, he did

627
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 1: something last week. He was on a field for seven

628
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: of their offensive plays in his first game succession and

629
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: he saw six targets. So like, I think, I think

630
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: he's in the mix. Their wide receivers are just two

631
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 1: up and down, flip flopping like they don't have consistent

632
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: volume or volume I want to go after. But on

633
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: the flip side, I think that, um, if you're hurting

634
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 1: for wide receiver, looking for Production Herns and Alecan Herns

635
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 1: and Marky's Lee might be in flex consideration. Now, um,

636
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 1: where was this of the league in zone targets over

637
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 1: the last two weeks, Lee's had nineteen targets, eleven catches

638
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: and a hundred forty one yards, and Herns, like you said,

639
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: has had four red zone targets in those last two

640
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: weeks with two touchdowns. Is also that guy that can

641
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: go over the top. And if the Jets can struggle anywhere,

642
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 1: they struggle every but especially struggle over the top as well,

643
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: I think if they can struggle. I think they're both

644
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: in the mix. You want to start the Jags d

645
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 1: there on the road. You'd prefer them to be at home.

646
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 1: But there's still a good streamer this week, and obviously

647
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 1: obviously you're starting for net. He's just smashing. He's scored

648
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: in every every game this week, and only Carlos Hyde

649
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 1: and Todd Gurley have more opportunities and side an opponent's

650
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: five yard line that you're streaming Bordles. I'm not streaming Bordles.

651
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not feeling I don't want to do

652
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: it either, but I'm just saying, give give the guy

653
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 1: some credit. He managed to not come to that London

654
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 1: game completely smashed, and he looked good. I think. I

655
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: think the Jaguars are coming back from London while the

656
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: Jets have been chilling in New York for the last week,

657
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: coming off a home win against the Dolphins. I think

658
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: the Jets defense is a nice sleeper. They're like the

659
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: least owned defense right now. He's due for a pick six, definitely,

660
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 1: and we saw the Jets shutting Jay Cutler down last week,

661
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: so it's a good point alright. Tennessee at Houston. My

662
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: personal thoughts is. I feel like it's a trap game,

663
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: big time for Tennessee following their big win against Seattle.

664
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: But regardless, Corey Davis has been ruled out again for

665
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 1: the Titans with the hamstring injury second week in a row.

666
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: H Richard Matthews, Baby, he got it done last week.

667
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 1: I talked him up on this podcast about a deep sleeper.

668
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: Shard Matthews has been getting it done forever. That that

669
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 1: Evan Silva tweet was great, Like the last like ten

670
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: games or whatever for Richard Matthews. He has bawled out.

671
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 1: He's got over like collectively over like over a thousand yards.

672
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: But did he do anything before that crazy spin move?

673
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 1: He had a couple catches? Okay, I'm just curious. I mean, look,

674
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: he's got that. I'm saying he's he's got that in

675
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: his arsenal. But I was just wondering about volume because

676
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure. Yeah. Well, I mean with Corey Davis out,

677
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: he's the top outside receiver, you know, no question. Uh

678
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: Deckers like usage has been there. He's been on the

679
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: field plenty. He's running a ton of routes. He's getting

680
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: some red zone love. But like the studesn't seem to

681
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 1: be happening, and I think he could. He doesn't look

682
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: as good to me just watching the games, which is

683
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: not surprising me that the guy had what like a

684
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: hip injury and upper body two surgeries like hip and

685
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: shoulder exactly. So I don't know. I'm not really Decker

686
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 1: is not a guy. I'm like, desk, I don't really

687
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: want to cut, but I'm not desperate to hold onto

688
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 1: and I'm definitely not playing even if he goes off.

689
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 1: I don't feel like he's in that Jeremy Maclin range

690
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: where you're should I cut him? Should I? Yeah? It's

691
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: like he could get he could get rolling at any moment,

692
00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 1: and then you're kind of kicking yourself. But at the

693
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: same time, I'm like, I think the process to a

694
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: decision to cut Eric Decker is is fine, even though

695
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 1: that that hurts to say. Uh, in the backfield for

696
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 1: for Tennessee, I think this is gonna be a committee

697
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: going forward. Uh, you know, Mike Maclarkey basically kind of

698
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 1: he said they want to get both of these guys

699
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: the ball, and and they should. I mean, they're the

700
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 1: two best players on on their offense in my opinion,

701
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 1: and I'm Okay, Like I think both those guys are

702
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: in flex range Henry and Murray. On the Texans side,

703
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 1: I think Deshaun Watson is a pretty good streamer in

704
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 1: this game. I mean he is. I know, Franchise wrote

705
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 1: up as a streamer. I had him in deep Dive.

706
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: I mean, he's running the ball and that always helps. Uh,

707
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 1: he's hitting Will foller back. I don't really care about

708
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: that as much. Like but weapon, it's an extra weapon.

709
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 1: He's got your boys, Bullington. Yeah, and I look Bruce

710
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 1: out there for the plays uh in in week two.

711
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 1: In Week three, yeah, coming off a concussion. I mean

712
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 1: the guy that they barely kept on the roster, or

713
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: when not barely kept, but like fought to make the team.

714
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: So I mean, I definitely like, I like Ellington in

715
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: this game. And I just I've never wanted something to

716
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 1: happen so bad as I do. They aim to break out,

717
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: like literally anything in my life. This is what I want.

718
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,959
Speaker 1: This is what I want the most, Oh, my lord,

719
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,399
Speaker 1: more than Richard Higgins. Oh hell yeah, hell yeah. Because

720
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,720
Speaker 1: it's because it's because it's it's more of a funny journey.

721
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: By the way, that's a hilarious juxtaposition. If you just

722
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 1: blowtorch the whole fantasy industry and community, now you're like

723
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 1: the only thing I wanted, Like I didn't. No, no no, no, no,

724
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not blowtorching the community or the industry.

725
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 1: I'm blowtorching the game. And how ridiculous this is? No, No, well,

726
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,879
Speaker 1: I'm just look, look what you're doing is you're blowtorching

727
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: the house that we all live in. I didn't say

728
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: it was bad. I just I'm just pointing out fast here,

729
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,320
Speaker 1: I'm still here, We're still doing this. It's just let's

730
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: let's be upfront about it. It's basically who's got the

731
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: best running backs? And why we're not even if we're

732
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: not even into four weeks and we've already got nihilist

733
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 1: harmon coming through, just blow torching everyone a little a

734
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: little overdue, but here we are. Can we please get

735
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,479
Speaker 1: Dante form and more involved here? Please? That's a good

736
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 1: that's a good mention watching Lamar Miller snap count go

737
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,280
Speaker 1: down downtown every single week. So there you go. Alright,

738
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 1: Detroit taken on Minnesota franch What you got yo? The

739
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,800
Speaker 1: Vikings offenses cooking right now, you guys, get it, cook

740
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: cooking hello, all right, that might be the only time

741
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: we've ever had, like straight up it was. The Vikings

742
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 1: have the second overall offense in the NFL, third ranked

743
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: past offense. Uh, they're tied for second in big plays.

744
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: The rush offenses ranked eleven thanks of Dalvin Cook. How crazy?

745
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: By the way, can we just say how crazy is this?

746
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 1: Because Minnesota last year? Is it? Hashtag crazy? It's crazy?

747
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: Thank you? Um, But I mean the Vikings last year

748
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 1: they struggled. Man, that offensive line was ravaged. I mean

749
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 1: it was just it was hurt, you know what I mean,

750
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 1: it was a chore and switched coordinators midway through the season.

751
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: That's why, let's this. I keep referencing this article, but

752
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: like I wasn't the only one. But if you read

753
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 1: the tea leaves, like this offense was set to explode

754
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 1: because they had to trade for Sam Brad before the season.

755
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: They changed off as of coordinators, everything were mentioned. Now

756
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: it's a coming together and it's great. Gay Yeah, I mean,

757
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: you're you're starting Diggs and feeling. They're like one of

758
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:31,280
Speaker 1: the most uh lethal wide receiver duos in the league.

759
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: Right now. They have thirty six combined receptions. That's first

760
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,319
Speaker 1: combined receiving yards that's first in the league. Diggs is

761
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: the wide receiver one. Uh. You know, some people might

762
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: be a little nervous about the matchup against the Lines

763
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 1: because the Lions are the top fantasy defense in the league.

764
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 1: But they've had some luck. They have seven picks and

765
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 1: a couple defensive special team scores, so don't like let

766
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 1: that get in your head. Their their defense is like

767
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: middle of the pack. Down to to pick sixes and

768
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 1: that pump return toushdown or whatever against the Giants. That

769
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: will inflate fantasy points. But in real life defense, they're

770
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: about the middle of the pack. Yeah, I would I

771
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: would say they're improved from last year. Picking up what

772
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 1: is it, Rod davis Um, you know, as their other

773
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 1: quarter next to Darius Slay has helped them a lot.

774
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 1: But I think he's still dealing with injury. I'd have

775
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 1: to double check that, but but no, you're right, the

776
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: Detroit defense has improved. But yeah, they're not a shutdown

777
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: And Dalvin Cook you're starting him as work two touches

778
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 1: in the first three games, eight rush yards. I mean,

779
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: he's a he's a running back. One. Hopefully Case Kingdom

780
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 1: can keep this going on the other side of the

781
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,239
Speaker 1: ball the Lions. Uh. Like Gelhart said earlier, I think

782
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 1: you can rely on Golden Tate here on the underneath

783
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: routes because you can't really trust the Detroit's outside receivers

784
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 1: Jones and Golladay. They're just kind of too volatile. Like Jones. Maybe,

785
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 1: you know, maybe one of them scores, but you can't

786
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: bank on it. What do you guys think Xavier Rhodes

787
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 1: done exactly the roads closed baby, He's held opposing receivers

788
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 1: to eleven reception is a hundred and thirteen yards and

789
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,360
Speaker 1: zero touchdowns on twenty one targets and coverage. And that

790
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: is Michael Thomas and Antonio brown and Mike Evans. That's insane.

791
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: I think they leave him on one side yet one.

792
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: I was gonna say that's what they did in Week one.

793
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: He was mostly just playing at right corner, which is

794
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 1: funny because then Thomas was mostly playing on the other

795
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 1: side of the field. They just still didn't really get going.

796
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think they end up playing him on

797
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,879
Speaker 1: the right side and just leave him there. I don't

798
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: think they have him shadow either of these two other games.

799
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:33,799
Speaker 1: Shadowed Antonio Browns and that was what the that was

800
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 1: there playing with him last year, Like he was not

801
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 1: an exclusive like shadow corner. They just decided like when

802
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: they thought it was necessary, and it almost maybe a

803
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: case where they only want to shadow funnel receivers, which

804
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 1: is like Michael Thomas, as great as he is in

805
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: the Saints offense, that offensive, they always spreads it around.

806
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: Was just saying with this one is actually why I

807
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 1: kind of like Marv Jones in this game. I kind

808
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,799
Speaker 1: of like him too, because he lines up on the

809
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:57,240
Speaker 1: right side of the field. That's where Minnesota has actually

810
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 1: been the most susceptible. They've given up i think three

811
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: touchdowns to the right wide receiver and right on the

812
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: second most receiving yards two fifty six. You know what's

813
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 1: crazy that all lines up because Matt Stafford is so

814
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 1: much better throwing deep to the right side than versus

815
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: deep to the left. Um, I forgot what the the

816
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 1: the difference is, but it's it's something crazy where it's

817
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 1: like Matt Stafford throwing to the deep right is has

818
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 1: like a quarterback rating, and then throwing to the deep

819
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 1: left it's like fifty three. But so, I mean there's

820
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 1: a chance that could be Golladay, but Marv Jones plays

821
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 1: more often and he's their most frequent guy to line

822
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 1: up on that side of the field in that spot.

823
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 1: So I think, like, I mean, he's he's only got

824
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,359
Speaker 1: a couple of catches and a couple of touchdowns this year.

825
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: But this could be the type of game where we said,

826
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 1: if it's a shootout, Marv Jones, I kind of like

827
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,839
Speaker 1: him there too. Man could sneakily have a big game.

828
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 1: All right, there one just one more thing. I don't

829
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: think you can be confident in starting a mirror dulo.

830
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 1: He's the running back thirty one through three weeks, no touchdowns,

831
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 1: and the Vikes held j Quiz Rodgers to fifteen rush

832
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 1: yards on five carries. On dude, Can I just say

833
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: I had this crazy dream last night? Oh now we're talking.

834
00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: Are you dreaming about running backs? Because I was to no,

835
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: I swear to god. I woke up and I was like, man,

836
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,240
Speaker 1: that's crazy that a Mira Abdullah went for one fifty

837
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 1: in a touch And I was like, whoa damn, I

838
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: just woke up. That's weird. Is crazy. He's got a

839
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: career high with eighty six rushing yards. The other way,

840
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: I just I'm telling you, it was just crazy. I

841
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: was like, WHOA, that was weird, and then I realized

842
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 1: that I'm having a crazy dream right now. Spin which

843
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,239
Speaker 1: the few ridic this might be a good game for him.

844
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: I think we said that last week. Bro, he still

845
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 1: had the seven targets last week. He's playable in PPR.

846
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: But I mean, I'm not like saying, you know, you

847
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,399
Speaker 1: just said he was going to be the running back one.

848
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: That's what you just said. Got me locked it in,

849
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: called me out Cincinnati. I gotta stand by my word.

850
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 1: Cincinnati at Cleveland, Tyler Efforts gonna miss multiple weeks with

851
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:48,560
Speaker 1: a back injury that according to a report from Adam Chef. Remember,

852
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: Effort underwent back surgery this offseason. I will assume he

853
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 1: is droppable in most formats. I dropped him. You just

854
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 1: why I saddle yourself with an empty tight end spot,

855
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: like you have to stream the position basically anyways, unless

856
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 1: you have Gronk Kelsey or Earth. So just cut him

857
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,839
Speaker 1: loose and then live the stream. In this matchup, though,

858
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 1: I think like it was good to see Andy Dalton

859
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: get back to being like the Dalton we knew, not

860
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 1: like a game changer world breaker, but a couple hundred yards,

861
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,320
Speaker 1: a couple of touchdowns, I think when he absolutely folded

862
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: so uh so, But I think he and a J.

863
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: Greener and he and a J. Greener in a great

864
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: spot this this week. They want to get the ball

865
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: out quicker and they'll just pummel Green with targets again. Uh.

866
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 1: And then in the backfield, Joe Mixon man, he saw

867
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: the backfield opportunities which bested the previous high of of

868
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: Bengals running back which was in Week one that was

869
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 1: also mixing. Uh And I think his production, he's just

870
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 1: gonna keep getting the rock more and distanced himself from

871
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 1: the other guys moving forward. But other than that, on

872
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 1: the Bengal side, I mean, yeah, you can start their

873
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 1: defense though against this offense, Kaiser is one of the

874
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 1: most sacked and is the most intercepted quarterback in the league. Uh.

875
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 1: And then on the flip side, I mean, like the

876
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 1: Browns offense, it just kind of needs to find its

877
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 1: find itself, finding identity. I think you can flex Duke

878
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 1: Johnson because he's been he is on the rise. In

879
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: Crowell has been struggling so much like right now, Johnson

880
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: still I don't think has double digit touches and eight

881
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 1: last week. But it's it's still trending up slightly. So

882
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: if you want to flex anybody, I think you can

883
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,839
Speaker 1: flex him. But the wide receivers Higgins crash back down

884
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 1: to Earth, Brits too inconsistent. They're tight ends are a

885
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 1: bunch of athletic playmakers, but they're diving up snaps like

886
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:26,920
Speaker 1: right down the middle and targets right down the middle.

887
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 1: And like when we're looking for streamers, you want somebody

888
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 1: that's a higher percentage player and is getting more targets.

889
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: So there's some joke. WU have touchdown in each of

890
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 1: the last two games. Yes, interesting, but they're still splitting

891
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 1: snaps I want. Yeah, No, I think both. No, I

892
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 1: think both those guys. I mean, but the fact all

893
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 1: the questions in the offense, they should find ways to

894
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,359
Speaker 1: get both those guys. But like right now, yeah, right now,

895
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,760
Speaker 1: the targets are just getting splayed all over the place,

896
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: and we don't have any sort of consistent, reliable person.

897
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: Johnson is really the only one I would look to

898
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 1: this week from that team. L A. Rams in Dallas,

899
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,919
Speaker 1: taken on Big Matt Harmon, what do you got? I'm

900
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 1: really excited about this game, which is, Look, I'm having

901
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 1: a lot things I didn't expect to say in two

902
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: thousands seventeen, having a lot of freaking fun watching the Rams.

903
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,719
Speaker 1: That offense is a blossom awesome. I wrote about that

904
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 1: for the Next Gen piece after that Thursday night came

905
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 1: and just like if there was ever a situation where

906
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: that data really told the story, what he's done with

907
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,399
Speaker 1: this offense is really good. Uh And just the fact

908
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: he has Jared Goff throwing into tight windows the fewest

909
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 1: percentage of his passes in among quarterbacks, whereas he was

910
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: leading that category last year, just a huge, huge win

911
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,360
Speaker 1: for the Rams to get to get Sean McVeigh in

912
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 1: the program. Uh So for fantasy, I think all of

913
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,839
Speaker 1: these Rams are in pretty good spots. I don't not

914
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,399
Speaker 1: scared of the Dallas defense outside of DeMarcus Lawrence, who

915
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: deserves a cap tip because he's killing it right now.

916
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 1: But secondary can be exploited, So I'm not afraid of

917
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: streaming Jared Goff in this spot. Hope hopefully Sammy Watkins

918
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,440
Speaker 1: plays know if anybody's seen an update on that, but

919
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:06,360
Speaker 1: he was in the concussion protocol after that, practiced limitedly,

920
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: but He's not out of protocol yet, so we have right.

921
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:11,760
Speaker 1: So hopefully we see him get cleared because obviously him

922
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 1: being a big difference maker in that offense is huge. Uh.

923
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 1: If if he doesn't go, though, I think Robert Woods

924
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:18,919
Speaker 1: is interesting. I had him in deep dive this week.

925
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,799
Speaker 1: He's certainly He also eclipsed a hundred yards last week,

926
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 1: so all the same amount of targets as Sammy Watkins.

927
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:27,439
Speaker 1: So if if Watkins is out, Woods is interesting. Cup

928
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,879
Speaker 1: has kind of fallen back to falling back to the pack.

929
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 1: He's not somebody I'm really prioritized holding right now. Uh.

930
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 1: And on of course he's starting Todd Gurley. Uh and

931
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: on the Dallas side. Uh, definitely like Doc in this spot,

932
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:45,439
Speaker 1: what do I mean you play death? Look, he's come

933
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 1: out of this ugly start to the season against denver Gin,

934
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: Orris Jenkins and Patrick Peterson with a couple of touchdowns,

935
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 1: So I think we've seen the worst of it for Dez. Uh.

936
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 1: So I'm playing him really confidently in this spot and

937
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 1: probably going forward, to be honest, and with you're still

938
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 1: playing Ezekiel Elliott. I just think you were lowering expectations

939
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,280
Speaker 1: for him because that offensive line Uh, is not playing

940
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 1: as well, and he's you know, not playing as well.

941
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,399
Speaker 1: Just doesn't look like the same guy yet. So all right,

942
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,320
Speaker 1: where are we at? Oh, Bills taken on Atlanta? Sorry

943
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:18,800
Speaker 1: I lost my place here, Bill's taken on Atlanta in

944
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: the Dirty South franch What you got alright? Shady McCoy, man,

945
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 1: he hasn't been great the last two games, but he's

946
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: faced some tough defense. Is Carolina never so I think

947
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 1: this is a get right game for him. Uh, He's

948
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 1: one of the only guys in this Bill's offense you

949
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:36,239
Speaker 1: can confidently start the Falcons. Last year, they gave up

950
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: the second most receiving arts to running backs. This year

951
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:42,080
Speaker 1: they're a bottom five team in the same category. Shady's

952
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: a dual threat, you know. I think you roll them

953
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 1: out for a bounce back. Maybe you can stream Charles

954
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 1: Clay as a tight end here. The Falcons haven't given

955
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 1: up a touchdown to a tight end yet, but Clay

956
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 1: behind McCoy is second on the Bills and targets, So

957
00:45:57,400 --> 00:45:59,760
Speaker 1: if the Bills get down, I can see Clay getting

958
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 1: a bun to targets here. I don't think you're starting Tyrode.

959
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,319
Speaker 1: I don't think you can start Tyrode on the road

960
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,840
Speaker 1: is just different than Tyrode at home. Z Jones, Jordan Matthews,

961
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,720
Speaker 1: any of these. Andre Holmes is like a deep, deep

962
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 1: deep play maybe, but not with confidence on the falcon side. Uh,

963
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 1: you're starting Julio, You're probably starting Matt Ryan, even though

964
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 1: the Bill's defense has been really good this year, and

965
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,759
Speaker 1: you're starting DeVonta Freeman. Uh, he's much better at home.

966
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: You know, he's basically a lock for a few goal

967
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: line looks. He's been great so far this year, even uh,

968
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:36,280
Speaker 1: you know, hasn't had a huge workload. But Tevin Coleman

969
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: gets worked in there, but I don't think you can

970
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:42,319
Speaker 1: trust him. Philadelphia taking on the Chargers in l A

971
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:46,319
Speaker 1: In Carson Producer, Chris, what do we got? Well, the

972
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:51,400
Speaker 1: Charges needed w first and foremost. But I think, but

973
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: I think from a fantasy perspective, you're starting two guys

974
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 1: every week on the Chargers, Keenan Allen and Melvin Gordon.

975
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,880
Speaker 1: And we're still not sure about Melvin Gordon. You alluded

976
00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:02,280
Speaker 1: to it earlier, James, but he had fifteen carrey seventy

977
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 1: eight yards in that first half against um the Chiefs,

978
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: So it looks like they got some rhythm in the

979
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 1: running game. But if he doesn't go, listen, no Fletcher Cox,

980
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:16,080
Speaker 1: no Darby. Um. I like Brandon Oliver if he doesn't go,

981
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:17,759
Speaker 1: and I think if you if your roster Gordon, you

982
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 1: should have Oliver anyway, um and I listen. I kind

983
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 1: of like Philip this week with listen the Eagles have

984
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,359
Speaker 1: to go east to west. They gave him twenty four

985
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:30,320
Speaker 1: points of that fourth quarter of the Giants. They're banged

986
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,479
Speaker 1: up and with no Fletcher Cox there, I think that

987
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 1: that pressure gets alleviated up front and hopefully Philip just

988
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 1: makes good decisions. It has to be the riv week

989
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 1: that's got to do it. Let me. I mean, I

990
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:44,440
Speaker 1: see some Chris Uh Tyrolle Williams. He's a guy I've

991
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 1: been getting some questions about this week. I actually have

992
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 1: him on a few teams. Uh. He's someone that I

993
00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 1: think is a really good player. He's been out on

994
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 1: the field of Tony's had seven five and seven targets,

995
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:57,560
Speaker 1: So the usage just kind of, Uh, what should we

996
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,920
Speaker 1: do with Tyrell? I think if he doesn't, if he doesn't,

997
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:03,480
Speaker 1: if he doesn't kill it in miss spot or at

998
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,879
Speaker 1: least do something, I'm definitely like he's on the drop

999
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 1: radar for me. But my theory with him has just

1000
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,840
Speaker 1: been there. Like I think he's good. I think we

1001
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 1: all think he's good. But I don't know if this

1002
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 1: Chargers staff thinks he's good. Considering they drafted a receiver

1003
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 1: seventh overall, they're not really making him priority part of

1004
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 1: the game plan. What do you think. I think Travis

1005
00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:22,800
Speaker 1: Benjamin is the wide receiver over two now, and I

1006
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,200
Speaker 1: think he's healthy. And I talked about this all training

1007
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: camp in a preseason. I mean, all he did was big,

1008
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 1: big plays, and all he's done is a big, big

1009
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 1: big plays in the regular season. That thirty eight yard

1010
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:33,840
Speaker 1: touchdown a week one, that he was five for a

1011
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:37,400
Speaker 1: hundred and five last week. So I I think Tyrell

1012
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:39,279
Speaker 1: Williams is a great player too, But I would pump

1013
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:41,520
Speaker 1: the brakes because I think the Mike Williams return date

1014
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,400
Speaker 1: is coming sooner than later. Um, So I don't know

1015
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,760
Speaker 1: if I necessarily drop him. See what he does this week.

1016
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 1: And then Hunter Henry is another guy. I mean, you

1017
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:53,400
Speaker 1: go from zero targets to seven for eighty to zero targets. Um,

1018
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,880
Speaker 1: I think he's got a matchup this week that that

1019
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 1: could be favorable. I think Travis Kelsey got off against

1020
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,439
Speaker 1: the Eagles. I think Evaning had five catches last week.

1021
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 1: Every other week, that's right, it's every other week he's doing.

1022
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:08,759
Speaker 1: It's like it's ulette it is. Yeah, I don't want

1023
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:11,920
Speaker 1: to be count on. All right, there you go? Alright.

1024
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 1: The forty Niners taken on Arizona Alex gilhar what you

1025
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 1: got If you're looking for a deeper streamer, I think

1026
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 1: Brian Hawger certainly mixed. Here we go, get off. The

1027
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: Cardinals have allowed shooting top ten quarterback performances to every

1028
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 1: quarterback they've faced not named Jacoby Brisette. Don't hate on

1029
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: fantasy breakout players year. It's gonna happen. Got that rushing

1030
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:37,719
Speaker 1: touchdown last week. We'll go this week before. I made

1031
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:39,879
Speaker 1: that declaration as a hot take, and I gotta write

1032
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,799
Speaker 1: it all year. I love it. But no, I think,

1033
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:43,960
Speaker 1: like seriously, like streaming wise, he could he could certainly

1034
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 1: be in the mix. That Cardinals are coming off in

1035
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,200
Speaker 1: a big emotional defeat. The forty Niners also don't have

1036
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,240
Speaker 1: to travel far. They just cruising down the coast drift

1037
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 1: to really change time zones or anything. But dude, decent spot.

1038
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,399
Speaker 1: Carlos hides uh, like if we talked about off the top.

1039
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:58,840
Speaker 1: He's been practicing on week. His touches have increased a lot.

1040
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 1: He's had four his targets in every game. I think

1041
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 1: he's a locked in RB two. I'm not chasing Marky's

1042
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:06,960
Speaker 1: goodwins deep play that he finally hit on last week.

1043
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 1: But I do think you can trust Peter Harston this week.

1044
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,960
Speaker 1: He should move the chains a lot, and he's just

1045
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,720
Speaker 1: an awesome player, so I love he made some ridiculous

1046
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 1: catch he had with it, Like his fingertips on the

1047
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 1: throw was one of the one of the plays of

1048
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 1: the game. It was great or one of the year.

1049
00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:24,840
Speaker 1: I mean probably because he didn't even double catch it.

1050
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 1: He just caught it. Yeah, on the flip side too.

1051
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,880
Speaker 1: I think Palmer is in a great spot. The four

1052
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:33,759
Speaker 1: nands past defense is a lot of just under five

1053
00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 1: yards and four tds the last two weeks, and that

1054
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 1: includes a game against the Seahawks offense when they did

1055
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 1: nothing against them. In week two, you're starting Larry fits.

1056
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 1: I think J. J. Nelson run are certainly both in

1057
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 1: the mixes as flex plays and then that backfield puke.

1058
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,719
Speaker 1: I don't want any part of it? Can I just

1059
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 1: mention about Carson Palmer with the with the Cardinals run

1060
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,960
Speaker 1: game being so anemic without David john In uh per

1061
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 1: Graham Barfield, the Cardinals have the third highest red zone

1062
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,800
Speaker 1: pass percentage, which means, dude, Carson Palmers is gonna be

1063
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 1: thrown touchdowns all year. So I like him in the

1064
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: spot I'm writing about him. I'm streaming him in a

1065
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,200
Speaker 1: couple of weeks to Yeah, Palmer is a great spot. Yeah.

1066
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:18,000
Speaker 1: New York Giants taken on Tampa Bay Matt Harmon, what

1067
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,479
Speaker 1: say you? Yeah? The Giants last week showed a little

1068
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,120
Speaker 1: bit of a different approach to their offense, and I'm

1069
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,800
Speaker 1: writing about that in the next Gen Stats column. It

1070
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 1: should be up later in just a few hours. Uh.

1071
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 1: Eli Manning had the second fastest time to throw of

1072
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 1: any quarterback in Week three at just two seconds. That

1073
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:37,960
Speaker 1: was way off from two point eight in Week one

1074
00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 1: and two point six in Week two. But dating back

1075
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,799
Speaker 1: to two thousands sixteen, the Giants offense has been at

1076
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,239
Speaker 1: its best and Eli has been at its best. Uh

1077
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,839
Speaker 1: when they have sped up that time to throw, He's

1078
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:49,839
Speaker 1: This was actually the first game the Giants have ever

1079
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 1: lost when he has had a majority of passes register

1080
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 1: as quick passes under two point five second time to

1081
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 1: throw um in terms of just so the viewers or

1082
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:01,120
Speaker 1: the listeners kind of understand, to point five is kind

1083
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,360
Speaker 1: of where you want to be at in that range,

1084
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,919
Speaker 1: and two point like, anything less than two point three

1085
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 1: is fast and anything over two point eight two is crazy.

1086
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 1: Two is crazy. So just to kind of again let

1087
00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 1: the listeners in on on the data that we're seeing.

1088
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:20,680
Speaker 1: And I know that we're around it so often, so

1089
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: you know, we kind of live it. But good, good,

1090
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,640
Speaker 1: good call to to give some more context to that. Uh.

1091
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 1: But what I think this means for the Giants offense

1092
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 1: is I think that this is good. You know, it

1093
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 1: helps alleviate some of that pressure on Manning. He's not

1094
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,040
Speaker 1: having to make these real low percentage throws. I think

1095
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 1: it's a good thing for Sterling Shepard, who we saw

1096
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:42,439
Speaker 1: really get rolling with a big play. But I think

1097
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 1: he's going to be that type of like five catch

1098
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,640
Speaker 1: a week sort of player if they keep this sort

1099
00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,839
Speaker 1: of quick passing game type of thing up. I think

1100
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 1: he's the better receiver than Brandon Marshall right now. Uh,

1101
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 1: and Beckham is back of course, it's also good for

1102
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,840
Speaker 1: Shane Green, who's the only ownable asset in this in

1103
00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:02,000
Speaker 1: this backfield simply just because uh he catch shame Vain

1104
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 1: has missed two consecutive days of practice with a calf,

1105
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 1: so theor Leans Dark Wall has also missed two consecutive

1106
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,520
Speaker 1: days of practice. It looks like they're going to be

1107
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 1: rolling out. Paul Perkins might be literally they're only healthy

1108
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 1: back now Wayne Golman, Wayne Golman, who they drafted the

1109
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:21,200
Speaker 1: deep sleeper. No, but somebody, you know what he will.

1110
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:24,440
Speaker 1: I guarantee you that if it's a gold gest situation,

1111
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,400
Speaker 1: he'll get in there. He's a big boy. You're a

1112
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 1: big boy, and he can move the plile. Yeah, you're

1113
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 1: probably right. And on the tip Bay side, Uh, you

1114
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 1: know this is I think it's a decent bounce back

1115
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:36,440
Speaker 1: spot for I can't really get a like a feel

1116
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:37,839
Speaker 1: on this game. Whether I think it's gonna be low

1117
00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:40,880
Speaker 1: scoring high scoring what you know? Because both these defenses

1118
00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 1: are pretty good. Uh, and both these offenses obviously have potential,

1119
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 1: but we've seen kind of mixed results so far. But

1120
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:51,720
Speaker 1: rolling out quiz No, probably, I don't think you can, man,

1121
00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:54,960
Speaker 1: I think you wait till Doug Martin gets back next week. Yeah.

1122
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 1: I mean he hasn't really done much. The workload wasn't

1123
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,840
Speaker 1: there obviously because they fell behind. I think he's like

1124
00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 1: a a not great flex options. Yeah, he loses. You

1125
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:07,080
Speaker 1: need him to be in a positive game script because

1126
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,320
Speaker 1: he just they don't target the backs, like even Chuck Sims.

1127
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 1: There isn't getting a lot of pass catching work that

1128
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:13,719
Speaker 1: is not targeting their backs right, too many good receivers right.

1129
00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:19,360
Speaker 1: Oakland taking on Denver a f C West battle French

1130
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,239
Speaker 1: what you got? Yeah? Man, Uh, both teams kind of

1131
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,319
Speaker 1: looking for a bounce back here. C J. Anderson and

1132
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 1: Trevor Simeon had a bad outing last week against Buffalo.

1133
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 1: I think it's a good bounce back spot for them.

1134
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,080
Speaker 1: They were at home against an Oakland defense that got

1135
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:35,759
Speaker 1: ravaged by the Redskins last week. So now Oakland is

1136
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 1: still on the road coming into Denver after that disheartening

1137
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:42,600
Speaker 1: loss on Sunday nights, just bath what happened, I don't know,

1138
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,920
Speaker 1: it just was weird. Crabtree was on the injury report

1139
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 1: with a chest Apparently he's been cleared to practice. Amari

1140
00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 1: Cooper was on the injury report last week with the knee,

1141
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 1: and then again this week with the knee. He might

1142
00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:56,680
Speaker 1: not be a percent. They're just not really giving us

1143
00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:59,480
Speaker 1: all the information. Well, they have two catches sixteen yards total.

1144
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:04,760
Speaker 1: Washington something crazy historically been real bad against this den Yeah,

1145
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 1: and Denver's defense is one of the best in the league.

1146
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,360
Speaker 1: I mean maybe, I don't know. I don't know what

1147
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:12,879
Speaker 1: to tell you. If you Crab and Cooper because they're

1148
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:16,240
Speaker 1: they're your top guys, and yeah, it's hard to bench then, yeah,

1149
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 1: super difficult. I don't know how you do it. I

1150
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,160
Speaker 1: don't know how you do it. I like Jared Cook here,

1151
00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:22,319
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can roll Marshawn Lynch out.

1152
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:25,680
Speaker 1: Though I gave a deep sleeper. Uh last night in

1153
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 1: in Oakland, I had asked the research department to kind

1154
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:30,439
Speaker 1: of give me these numbers. But um, you know, Denver

1155
00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:32,960
Speaker 1: has given up nearly thirty percent of all of their

1156
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,920
Speaker 1: passing yards and touchdowns to the shallow middle part of

1157
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:39,040
Speaker 1: the field. And when I went to go look at

1158
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 1: where Oakland is deploying, um, those targets, those were going

1159
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:45,319
Speaker 1: largely to Seth Roberts, who was on the field a lot.

1160
00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:50,320
Speaker 1: If he's a if if you're looking for a deep,

1161
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:54,200
Speaker 1: deep sleeper. I'm rolling with Seth Roberts in the danger zone.

1162
00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 1: That's I think you're starting to Manny Sanders and da

1163
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:02,080
Speaker 1: Marius Thomas. Obviously there you go, all right, Sunday Night

1164
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 1: Football Colts taking on the Seattle Seahawks. I laugh because

1165
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 1: I just feel like Indiana's or Indian Apple is just

1166
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:15,360
Speaker 1: gonna get steamrolled here. But I could be wrong. Alex

1167
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,880
Speaker 1: what you got and they probably should. Uh. The Seahawks

1168
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 1: have been getting dashed on the ground though, so I mean,

1169
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:24,560
Speaker 1: like if you're hurt, weird, but if you're hurting for

1170
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,640
Speaker 1: running backs like Frank Or is grinding it out still.

1171
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 1: You know, he keeps punching Father time in the face

1172
00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 1: and like running for running for more yards and he

1173
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: got in the endzone last week, so very low in flex.

1174
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:36,560
Speaker 1: And then t Y Hilton, I think I haven't gotten

1175
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:38,360
Speaker 1: to this game yet. My matchups column will be posted

1176
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:40,880
Speaker 1: later today. But Tia Hilton I think is done pretty

1177
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:43,400
Speaker 1: well against the Seahawks and is that type of speedy,

1178
00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 1: shifty receiver you can get around on the legion of booms.

1179
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:49,680
Speaker 1: So if Brissete's gonna pummel him with targets again and

1180
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 1: they get behind as we expect. I think this could

1181
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 1: be another week where you roll out t y on

1182
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:55,040
Speaker 1: the flip side. You want to fire up all your

1183
00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:57,760
Speaker 1: Seahawks this week. They're coming back at home. They desperately

1184
00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:00,120
Speaker 1: need to win. It's in prime time. Rust. Look, he

1185
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,560
Speaker 1: got right a little bit last week. So I'm down

1186
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:05,480
Speaker 1: with Russ. What's Baldon is supposed to play like they

1187
00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:07,359
Speaker 1: said it wasn't once it's serious. He's kind of day

1188
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 1: to day and all the expectations how that he's gonna play.

1189
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,680
Speaker 1: But if you're a duck Baldon owner, maybe pick up

1190
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,440
Speaker 1: Paul Richardson if he's still available, just in case Tyler Lockett,

1191
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:16,800
Speaker 1: because the Baldwin sits, those guys are gonna get a

1192
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,720
Speaker 1: lot of work. This could be And I like, I

1193
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:20,720
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm still out on Jimmy Graham right now.

1194
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm not starting him yet. He's not

1195
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 1: healthy and he had seven catches, right well, you're gonna

1196
00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:30,840
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham with seven, you know, with coming off seven

1197
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,480
Speaker 1: catches with this tight end market. He's been doing squat

1198
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,920
Speaker 1: otherwise though he's injured. Give me, give me, give me,

1199
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 1: the give me a good bathback game from from Jimmy Graham.

1200
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 1: All right, if you believe it, then that's great. But

1201
00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 1: I'm I'm concerned. I'm concerned. Monday Night Football, Washington looking

1202
00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:48,480
Speaker 1: to continue and build upon their big win against Oakland.

1203
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:51,919
Speaker 1: Two big wins in a row, that's true, continuing their

1204
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:56,400
Speaker 1: prime time slot. Here Monday Night Football, Washington in Arrowhead

1205
00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:59,400
Speaker 1: taken on Casey Matt Harmon, what do you got? All right,

1206
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:03,080
Speaker 1: I think this is the week where Terrell Prior and

1207
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:06,360
Speaker 1: Jamison Crowder get going. Yeah, buddy, let's go. And here's

1208
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 1: why we've said this three weeks. Listen. But I look,

1209
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 1: I think I've had a lot of people ask me, like,

1210
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,439
Speaker 1: what is the time to panic on Terrell Prior. I'm like, well, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1211
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 1: you over that's your problem. You overpaid for him, Like

1212
00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 1: but and you but you can't sell right now because

1213
00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:25,760
Speaker 1: nobody's buying. And it really it's the same thing with

1214
00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 1: Jamison Crowdy just wasn't as expensive in drafts, and I

1215
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,840
Speaker 1: tried to trade Terrell Prior for Matt Stafford in a

1216
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 1: six point touchdown league. Nobody's doing that, no one, No

1217
00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 1: one's fine Prior right now, and I don't think like that.

1218
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:41,760
Speaker 1: This is it's crazy if he pops off. And when

1219
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:43,400
Speaker 1: I when I say yeah, because when I say like,

1220
00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 1: this is the week he gets going, I don't mean

1221
00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:48,200
Speaker 1: this is the week he gets going and then pays

1222
00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 1: back that draft, cause that's not happening. That's out of

1223
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:52,880
Speaker 1: the equation to me. But what what what I do

1224
00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:54,880
Speaker 1: think this is a good matchup for him because just

1225
00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,640
Speaker 1: the way the Chiefs deploy their cornerbacks, they leave Marcus

1226
00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:01,320
Speaker 1: Peter at Peters at that left corner position. Terrell Prior

1227
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:03,920
Speaker 1: has taken He's seen sixty three percent of his targets

1228
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:05,959
Speaker 1: from when he lines up at left wide receiver, putting

1229
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:07,840
Speaker 1: him on the other side of the field. Jamison crowd

1230
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 1: or targets from the slot. The Chiefs are top three

1231
00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 1: in yards allowed to left wide receivers and slot wide receivers.

1232
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 1: And that's just where you pick on this team. So

1233
00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 1: if Washington game plans around that, I think those two

1234
00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 1: guys could be the focal point of the offensive attack.

1235
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:24,520
Speaker 1: And I think this is the way it's gonna be

1236
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:27,880
Speaker 1: with this Washington offense, Like it's gonna be a game

1237
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:30,040
Speaker 1: plan dependent week two weeks sort of thing. That's gonna

1238
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 1: be tough for us to figure out. But this at

1239
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:33,640
Speaker 1: least looks like a spot. I don't know how you

1240
00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:35,800
Speaker 1: can deploy these guys confidently, but where you can tell

1241
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,200
Speaker 1: yourself the story that they that they hit. Uh So,

1242
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 1: to me, that's the big story on Washington side and

1243
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:42,480
Speaker 1: can just can I just say though on Washington side too.

1244
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:44,920
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but I just getting really excited

1245
00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:47,800
Speaker 1: about Kirk Cousins because he's he's got Josh dockson now

1246
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 1: if they could get production out of Vernon Davis. They've

1247
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:53,120
Speaker 1: got Terrell Prior, Jamison Crowder, Chris Thompson out of the backfield.

1248
00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:56,120
Speaker 1: I mean, all of a sudden, this Washington offense looks

1249
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:58,960
Speaker 1: pretty loaded from pass catching perspect Honestly, this was one

1250
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:03,959
Speaker 1: of those situations I think that Buddy Rump for Johnny says,

1251
01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 1: by the pancakes, not the syrup, or might be mixing

1252
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:07,960
Speaker 1: that away, but mixing that around. But it's like when

1253
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 1: there's a quarterback where you're like, man, you've got all

1254
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,840
Speaker 1: these great pass catchers, like, don't go draft Torrell Prior

1255
01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:14,760
Speaker 1: in the third round, Jamison crowd in the fifth round

1256
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 1: or Jordan in und draft. The quarterback because that's where

1257
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:19,000
Speaker 1: it's all going to intersect. And I agree with you,

1258
01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 1: this is a really talented group. And it's good that

1259
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 1: you mentioned Josh Doxon because he had that one big catch.

1260
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,360
Speaker 1: It was really just one catch. But let's hopefully this

1261
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:28,560
Speaker 1: is the start of momentum building for him. So good

1262
01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:32,000
Speaker 1: if he gets out there more like and it's healthy,

1263
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be good. And on the Chiefs side, I mean,

1264
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:36,200
Speaker 1: what do you what do you need to say about

1265
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:38,440
Speaker 1: the Chiefs? Like you play Hill, you play Kelsey, you

1266
01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:42,000
Speaker 1: play the best running back in fantasy football, and uh,

1267
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 1: the biggest bargain in fantasy football Kareem Hunt. The just

1268
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:49,080
Speaker 1: outrageous note from next yen stats. By the way, it's

1269
01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:52,760
Speaker 1: just like he has averaged or he's posted three forty

1270
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:55,440
Speaker 1: five yards after a defender on all plays after a

1271
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:57,960
Speaker 1: defender closed within one yard of him. The next highest

1272
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:00,800
Speaker 1: back is Ezekie Elliott with two forty four. It's a

1273
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 1: hundred yards better. Do you watch him? Though? And like,

1274
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:05,920
Speaker 1: I don't think there's ever a play where he doesn't

1275
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: break at least one tackle, Like guy never brings him down.

1276
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,600
Speaker 1: He's good, He's really good. All right, let's close out

1277
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 1: with daily Dapsuh. We shall start with the Whiskid from Wisconsin,

1278
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:17,360
Speaker 1: Alex y'alhard, what do you get? I was also going

1279
01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:20,160
Speaker 1: to adapt the Foreigner trailer because I cannot. I saw

1280
01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:21,800
Speaker 1: you put it on here for years that I was.

1281
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:23,640
Speaker 1: We went to Kingsman, which was fun. I don't think

1282
01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 1: we adapted that. Last weekend we went to Kingsman, which

1283
01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 1: was fun. But yeah, I was sitting and I was

1284
01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:29,960
Speaker 1: sitting in the trailer, and you know, I had had

1285
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:31,560
Speaker 1: my beer and I had a popcorn, and then that

1286
01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:34,200
Speaker 1: Foreigner trailer came on, and I was like, take all

1287
01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 1: of my money, Like, looks like a total badass. I

1288
01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:43,360
Speaker 1: love Jackie chan movies and I love his older stuff,

1289
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:44,720
Speaker 1: and this looks like it could be a good one.

1290
01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:47,280
Speaker 1: He's got a got a good action director alongside him too,

1291
01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:49,960
Speaker 1: And I just like he's playing a character that's a

1292
01:01:50,000 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 1: little bit outside of what we've come to know for

1293
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:56,120
Speaker 1: Jackie Chan, because usually he's that happy, go lucky, you know,

1294
01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:58,680
Speaker 1: kick ass type dude. But he's always said he likes

1295
01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:01,480
Speaker 1: to merge comedy with action more in a lot of

1296
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:04,000
Speaker 1: his stuff. But he's totally off the comedy thing here.

1297
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 1: This looks dark, straight up dark action movie and I

1298
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 1: am very excited, man. And uh, I think that was

1299
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 1: the only thing I was getta DAP so far because

1300
01:02:11,600 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 1: it's been distracted busy all week with work. So yeah,

Speaker 1: there you go. I will daily DAP, but not only

1307
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:33,640

1327
01:03:36,120 --> 01:03:38,800
Speaker 1: I'm adapt a piece on ESPN dot com that I

1328
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:42,000
Speaker 1: read last night before going to bed instead of watching

1329
01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:46,160
Speaker 1: Gordon Ramsey and Tasty cooking videos on Facebook like normally

1330
01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 1: nice and sad existence Yo master Chef and did great

1331
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:54,160
Speaker 1: nice I I I was reading it last night's piece

1332
01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 1: on Eddie Lacey and like his struggle Loss. It came

1333
01:03:58,000 --> 01:03:59,480
Speaker 1: out last week but I didn't get a chance to

1334
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:01,160
Speaker 1: read it. But it's a good piece. It made me

1335
01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:03,840
Speaker 1: feel bad about every take I've ever had about Lace. Well, yeah,

1336
01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:05,800
Speaker 1: it just goes through. It's a It's a good reminder

1337
01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:07,480
Speaker 1: in general for all of us that like these are

1338
01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:10,040
Speaker 1: human beings, And I mean some of the pieces, like

1339
01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:12,600
Speaker 1: especially as somebody that has struggled with weight in their

1340
01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:14,960
Speaker 1: life before. Like, there was one line that I thought

1341
01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:17,640
Speaker 1: was just incredible. The guy who wrote it, Ian Allen.

1342
01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:20,600
Speaker 1: He says, guys like us don't garner much sympathy. There's

1343
01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:23,480
Speaker 1: no backlash when we're the butt of sitcom jokes. It's

1344
01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:25,960
Speaker 1: easy to look at us and assume a lack of willpower,

1345
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,760
Speaker 1: a weakness in our character, and in our darker moments,

1346
01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:31,280
Speaker 1: we can't help. But wonder are those people right? That

1347
01:04:31,640 --> 01:04:35,040
Speaker 1: damn really resonated with me. It's like BoJack level line. Yeah,

1348
01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:37,240
Speaker 1: that's good, that's good enough, But it was, It was awesome.

1349
01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:40,720
Speaker 1: I'd recommend to everybody read it, not because like, I

1350
01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:42,320
Speaker 1: don't know, I just think it's good for for everybody

1351
01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:44,840
Speaker 1: to have that sort of perspective. Producer Chris, what do

1352
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:46,400
Speaker 1: you got? All Right? This is the last time I

1353
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 1: gonna do it, But I completed the Fantasy Circle on

1354
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:52,880
