1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 1: Wow, what's up everybody? Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast.

2
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:18,120
Speaker 1: I'm Michael Fabiano, joined by my partner in crime here,

3
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: the fantasy viper, Graham Barfield. What's up, pal Man? Just

4
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 1: coming off a really boring Thursday night game, Stefon Diggs

5
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 1: lost his mind down, cook Is continues to be a stud.

6
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: But that's about all that happened. Yeah, there wasn't that

7
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 1: much going on in that game unless I started like

8
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: Dan Bailey outside of you know, Digs having a big game,

9
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,160
Speaker 1: and you know Bailey had a good game. Uh, let's

10
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: let's first go behind the glass and welcome in our pal.

11
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: Nabile has sign. What's going on? Brother? How's it going? I'm,

12
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: you know, pretty hyped up from my packers, so I

13
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: know all right, Yeah, comes to talking about Aaron Rodgers, Like, yeah,

14
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: after six touchdowns, you definitely prey hyped about that guy.

15
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: Nobile is like, yeah, is Roger's gonna score six touchdowns

16
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: again this week? It's it's definitely a good spot. I

17
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: think all five maybe not sick, but we'll see, Uh

18
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 1: that should be. Well, we're gonna talk about that game,

19
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: so we'll find out about what we think about Rogers

20
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: and everyone else moving forward. So let's just quickly go

21
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: through it happened last night, and as as Graham mentioned too,

22
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: it wasn't much. Um. You know one thing we definitely learned. Um,

23
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 1: if case Keenum is not the quarterback of the Redskins,

24
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: you can't start Terry McLaurin. He McLaren was on his

25
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: way to having a nice game in the first half,

26
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 1: and then second half, Keenum goes out with the concussion

27
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: and Haskins comes in deer in the headlights. Bad. Okay.

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 1: There was two plays in particular that I remember, Uh,

29
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: one of which McLaren had beaten the defender and was

30
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: running downfield and would have probably got into the end zone.

31
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: Haskins dumped it off instead of looking downfield. Um. And

32
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: then that past that got picked off where McLaren was

33
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: wide open in the middle of the field and Haskins

34
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: threw it too high. And you know, you would think, oh,

35
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: these guys got a great rapport from Ohio State A.

36
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: The NFL is a different game, friends, McLaurin has adapted,

37
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,119
Speaker 1: Haskins has not. Yeah, that's true, and and and right

38
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: now I mean that you know, it's obviously still early

39
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: in haskins career, right, but he has not acquitted himself

40
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: at all. Uh and he's not looked prepared at all,

41
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: and his his limited sample of starts um case Kingdom

42
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: obviously is going to be in concussion protocol for the

43
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: for the foreseeable future. Hopefully he clears it. So McLaurin

44
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: comes back and is still you know, decent fantasy option

45
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: because if if Haskins is under center, this whole offense,

46
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: I mean, not only obviously it is Jake Gruden gun

47
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,920
Speaker 1: and Bill Callahan's committing to the run and just trying

48
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: not to get embarrassed, which is working to a certain extent,

49
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: still a lot closer than most people thought. Well, they

50
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: kept it close because they're basically running plays at a

51
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 1: snail's pace. I mean, over the last two weeks they've

52
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: ran like forty five plays, which is just so so

53
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: below NFL average. But yeah, they're they're not getting embarrassed.

54
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: They're not running a ton of a ton of plays.

55
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: But when they are running plays, we we need some

56
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: more efficient quarterback under center, because if not, McClaren is

57
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 1: going to be not looking very good. Yeah. The good

58
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: news is that Callahan already said that when case, Keenum

59
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: is healthy. He's the quarterback, so that's good news. If

60
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: you have Terry McLaurin. Uh, Adrian Peterson game, Hey, I

61
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 1: mean had over hundred yards on overall. So I mean

62
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 1: it wasn't bad. No, it's not and this is now

63
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: you know it's it's incredible. I mean he he basically

64
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: said he sprained his ankle in two different spots. He

65
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: had a small uh ankle sprain in the bottomless foot.

66
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: We also had a high ankle sprains. Still got sixteen

67
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: touches whenever dar and Scrimmage, like you said, averaged five

68
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: point four yards per carry. Uh, you know, if he's

69
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: not human, if the Red you know he's not if

70
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: the Redskins were able to move the ball at all. Uh,

71
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: last night, I think we continue to see this Vikings

72
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: defense is still just not as good as as we

73
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: expected them to be. Um. But yeah, I mean really

74
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: Redskins man, because there's not much here. And you know,

75
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: we don't have to tell you how good Dalvin Cook is,

76
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: but I will tell you this if you didn't know

77
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: this already, Alexander Madison's probably the top handcuff and fantasy football.

78
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: Last night, he looked great and he had about forty

79
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 1: yards on the ground taken away by stupid Vikings penalties too,

80
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: so that game could have been even better for him

81
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: on the ground. And if you have Dalvin Cook and

82
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: you don't have Alexander Madison, uh, you are you are

83
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: not making an intelligent decision. Let's just put it that way.

84
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: So again, not much to cover in that game. Cook

85
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: was great. Madison gotta get him if he's a handcuff

86
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,799
Speaker 1: uh for Dalvin out there. Kirk Cousins, he was efficient,

87
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: played very well. He didn't have a touchdown and that

88
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: hurt his fantasy value. But James kirk Kirky was great

89
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: last night again. I mean, he completed eighty percent of

90
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: his passes, was nearly over eleven yards per past attempt

91
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: with twenty three twenty five, but like you mentioned, didn't

92
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: get into the box and that's probably what hurt. That's

93
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 1: what hurt. Yeah, the eleven points, six fantasy points from

94
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: kirk Cousins after going over twenty three straight weeks is

95
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: going to sting and a lot of people, including myself

96
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: started him. So Uh. It was a very good performance

97
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: on the field that didn't translate in the statutes from

98
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: a fantasy perspective. So, uh, there you go, Redskins at Vikings. Um,

99
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 1: not much to say. Now, let's move on to what

100
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 1: you guys are really here for, and that's our Week

101
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 1: eight fantasy previews, and we're gonna begin in Atlanta Seahawks Falcons. Uh, Graham,

102
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the injuries first. We know Matt Ryan

103
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: is a big question mark for this contest, right, not

104
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: many other injuries in this game that we're tracking. It

105
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: looks like this morning Matt Ryan was backed on the

106
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: practice field. This is his first limited practice of the week.

107
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn basically said earlier this week that he's expecting

108
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: Ryan to play, which I find a little bit crazy. Right,

109
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: the Falcons are just completely degree Uh they're one and

110
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: six there byas next week there, you know, obviously not

111
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: really fighting for very much. They've already traded Mohammed's new

112
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: this week. They're they're complete. Uh, they're completely looking forward

113
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 1: to I would be very surprised still if Matt Ryan plays,

114
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: but obviously fab's weirder things have happened that if Ryan

115
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: does not play. Really, I think the only guys you

116
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 1: can trust in your fantasy lineups is like Julio and Hooper. Yeah,

117
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,559
Speaker 1: and Freeman is probably gonna be in there too, uh

118
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: as well. And they haven't been running the ball successfully,

119
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: but he's getting a lot of opportunities as a pass catcher.

120
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: Hopefully he doesn't throw any punches this week. Um, don't

121
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: get picked up by Aaron Donald or all the story.

122
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: If Matt Shob is the quarterback, pick up the Seahawks defense,

123
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: start them. Okay, this guy is seventh among active quarterbacks

124
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 1: in pick sixes. I believe he has fourteen in his career,

125
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: and the six quarterbacks ahead of him have had significantly

126
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: more pass attempts in their career. I think all well

127
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 1: over a thousand more pass attempts than Matt Chobs. So

128
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: this dude is the pick six king. Get the Seahawks

129
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: defense if Matt Ryan is unable to go on the

130
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: Seahawks side, I mean, you're starting, You're starting everybody. You're

131
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 1: starting Russell, he's a monster, You're starting Carson, You're starting Tyler,

132
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: and you're starting DK Metcalf in this contest, he's a

133
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: really good sleeper. Oh yeah, And I think this is

134
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: just to get this is just to get off spot

135
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: for everybody here. Wilson Carson. Atlanta has now allowed a

136
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: QB one performance. It's a top twelve quarterback performance in

137
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: six straight games. They've allowed a top five fantasy quarterback

138
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: in four straight. Um, this is just a huge, huge

139
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: spot for Wilson. I will say, if Shop does not play, uh,

140
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: that's gonna really limit the upside. I think of this

141
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: game as a whole for the Seahawks because they're just

142
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: not gonna have to keep their foot on the gas

143
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: if Matt Ryan's not out there. Um. But that being said, yeah,

144
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: you you have to play in season long. You're playing

145
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: all these guys I will know real quick. Last week

146
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 1: the Seahawks played without Will dis Lee, who went on

147
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: I R with the achilles tear. It was Jacob Hollis,

148
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: not not Wilson, who ran more routes. Um saw six

149
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 1: targets over Wilson's. I think he only saw one or

150
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: two at seven red zone routes too. So like, I mean,

151
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: that's that's super deep, super super deep. But there's a

152
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: lot of really interesting kind of like super deep tight

153
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: end plays yea, And I think I think we're going

154
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: to talk about that at the end of the show

155
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: because this coming Sunday, National tight Ends Day. Didn't even

156
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: know there was a National tight ends Day? Yeah, is

157
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: there a National running Backs Day? I don't even know

158
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: about that. But anyways, Also Gray Magic Mohammed san Wu

159
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: traded to h the New England Patriots. So just keep

160
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: in mind guys that Sanu was a big time red

161
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 1: zone threat for Atlanta. He actually led their wide receivers

162
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: in red red zone routes run, which means that those

163
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: are going to trickle down potentially to Austin Hooper, maybe

164
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 1: to Calvin Realley as well, maybe Julio Jones. But the

165
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: big question mark is is Ryan going to play? Because

166
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: if he's not, Calvin Realley will be a great by low.

167
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: If Ryan does not play this week and then the

168
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: Falcons have their by al right. Moving on, Broncos at Colts.

169
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 1: What are we looking at for the injuries? Graham? Not much.

170
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: This is a pretty healthy game overall. I think we'll

171
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: see pretty much everyone we're expecting, uh, just this week. Um,

172
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,599
Speaker 1: you know. Obviously, the big news in this game is

173
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 1: the Broncos traded Emmanuel Sanders in the middle of the

174
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 1: week to the forty Niners. It means Courtland Sutton is

175
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 1: going to be just even more of the Broncos locked

176
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: in number one receiver this season, FABS. I've been really

177
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: surprised and pleasantly surprised at that at Sutton's play. He's

178
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: really stepped it up this year, and he's ranks top

179
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: fifteen and targets air yards, red zone targets, receiving yards

180
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: among receivers, and and now Sanders departure kind of opens

181
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: up some more opportunity for him. Yep. The only thing

182
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: that can hurt Courtland Sutton is if the Broncos do

183
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: something foolish and start Drew Lock at some point this season.

184
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: I've talked to people close to the Broncos who say

185
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: he's not ready. We heard John Elways say he's not ready.

186
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: So it's funny because we talked about case Keenum is

187
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,319
Speaker 1: a black quarterback, and Joe Flacco is a black quarterback,

188
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: and Ryan Fitzpatrick is a black quarterback. But from a

189
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective, those are the damn guys we want in

190
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: the lineup. At least they're getting the guy. You guys

191
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: are getting the receivers the rock exactly exactly. So Courtland

192
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: Sutton has become pretty close to it to a must start.

193
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the Broncos backfield. Last week it was

194
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 1: Royce Freeman. Over the last couple of weeks, he continues

195
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: to lead that backfield in terms of snaps. This is

196
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: a tough matchup. It's weird for me to say this

197
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 1: because typically the Colts are not good against the run.

198
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: This year they're not bad. With that being said, I

199
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 1: prefer Lindsay over Freeman, right, Yeah, you know, the last

200
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, like you mentioned, Freeman has actually out

201
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: snapped Lindsay. Now and back to back games he outsnapped

202
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: him in this span. Look, I don't know why the

203
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: Broncos are insistent on cutting down Lindsay's usage, but they

204
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: continue to do it. That being said, you know, with

205
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: with a few teams out on by this week, you're

206
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: likely don't have many better options than Lindsay and Freeman.

207
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: I think you can both treat them both as low

208
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: end r B twos here in this matchup. Yeah, uh

209
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: so moving forward, um day, Shawn Hamilton's I don't know

210
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: that I play him this week, but with Sanders out

211
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: worth a speculative ad based on the assumption that targets

212
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 1: are going to be increase. I think so, especially in

213
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 1: PPR leagues. I think it makes some sense. But day

214
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: Shawn has really struggled this year, and I think he's

215
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 1: He's had a few really bad kind of it doesn't

216
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: It looks like kind of mental drops that I've seen.

217
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: I'd like to see him step it up before I

218
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: trust him in any fantasy lineups. But I think I

219
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: think this is a pretty good chance for Noah fant

220
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: to maybe I think, maybe, yeah, maybe earn a little

221
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: bit bigger role. But the same thing within he's had

222
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: a few mental mental errors as well. Yeah. Jacoby Brissette,

223
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: who if you look at the splits, he's awesome at home,

224
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: He's been great at home. But he's got the Broncos

225
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: this week, and this Denver team has given up an

226
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: average a fewer than twelve fantasy points per game to

227
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: home quarterbacks. So is Brissette a fade for you this week?

228
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: I think so. I think too. Yeah, I'm not on

229
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: the Brissette streaming train. Look, I mean, Brissette has made

230
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: his hey off short scores. This year. He is. He

231
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: has nine touchdowns inside the tan yard line that leads

232
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: the league. I think Carson Wentz his second closest with

233
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: like five and the Broncos have not allowed a top

234
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: twelve fantasy pass all year long. Um, I think you

235
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: can go back to present and to QB leagues, but

236
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: I'll be looking for more upside in UH twelve team

237
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: leagues if you're looking for straight Do you fear the

238
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: t U I Versus Chris Harris Jr. Matchup? Yeah? I

239
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: do have to play t U I right and season

240
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: long to do. But I mean Hilton has been awesome,

241
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: but so has Chris Harris this year. I mean Harris

242
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: has been Honestly, I think this might even be his

243
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: best season yet, and that's saying a lot for a

244
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: cornerback who's been um fantastic. The Broncos are using him

245
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: as this like movable chess piece on their defense and

246
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 1: just allowing him to go into the slot that's where

247
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: he played almost exclusively of the last couple of years.

248
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: They're now allowing him go to the boundary. So yeah,

249
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: this is definitely a tough draw for the for Hilton,

250
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: and just think about it, right, Like, all Harris has

251
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: to do is follow t Y Hilton and the Broncos

252
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 1: will be content just letting Zach Pascal and Eric ebron

253
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: Um one play here. And I feel like the cults

254
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: are going to lean on him a lot. As Marlon Mack.

255
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,079
Speaker 1: The Broncos are giving up almost twenty nine fantasy points

256
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: per game to home running back to this season, so

257
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: Mac is going to well, you know, he'll put up

258
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: r B two numbers. I would think this week very

259
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: good spot for him. So start Marlon Mack. Um, let's

260
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:14,319
Speaker 1: move on here. Buccaneers at Titans and the Adam Humphries

261
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 1: revenge game. Okay, okay, maybe there's better narratives than Adam

262
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: Humphries revenge game. But anyways, Uh so Jamis Winston and

263
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: every week he's He's jekylin high Dude, we just don't

264
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: know which quarterback we're going to see now. I have

265
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: Jamis as a sid him this week, and I get it.

266
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: Last week Philip Rivers put up twenty one fantasy points

267
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. But overall, this defense is still giving up

268
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: a fewer than fifteen fantasy points per game to quarterbacks.

269
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 1: And I just feel like, if there's any question about

270
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 1: the matchup, you can't play Jamis. You just can't. And

271
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: there are better matchups down the road, especially late in

272
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 1: the season, where you're gonna be able to utilize him.

273
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I just don't feel like unless Tennessee gets

274
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: out to a big lead and the Buccaneers have to

275
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: throw the football to come back garbage time, I don't

276
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: want to live like that. Just to me, Jamis is

277
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 1: a fade. Yeah. I think you know, one thing we've

278
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: known about Jamis through the years is he is just extremely,

279
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: extremely unpredictable. But for for me, I'm I'm with you

280
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: on this. This looks like a bad Jamie spot on

281
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: the road against a tough Titans defense. This year, Jamis

282
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: has been really good against the blitz, but the Titans

283
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: never blitz. They almost always are dropping back and just

284
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: playing coverage and forcing opposing pastors to beat them in

285
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: tight windows. So for me, yeah, I think obviously Godwin

286
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: and Evans are must plays, but outside of that, really

287
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: there's not a whole lot to like on this buck

288
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: side and fabs O. J. Howard popped up on the

289
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: injury late this week with a hamstring injury. I was

290
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: just going to mention that that's gonna be another guy

291
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: that we can talk about national tight ends. And now

292
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: now we we could be looking at a little Cambrat

293
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: streaming play. If Howard does not play, I am I

294
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: am patiently waiting to see what happens with Howard. Um.

295
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: I actually sent a d M to Rick Stroud there

296
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: in Tampa to see if he has any inside information.

297
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: But if and it seems odd to think this because

298
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: like well, Bruce arians doesn't use tight ends. And that's

299
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: why O. J. Howard has not been getting any of

300
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: the production that we started predicting for him in the previouseason.

301
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: But Cameron Brad's running a lot of routes in the

302
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: red zone, guys, and all you need is that one

303
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: touchdown and the opportunities are gonna be there. So Brad

304
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: is a guy that I would certainly look at. Tennessee

305
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: is giving up about fourteen Fantasy points for game the

306
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: tight ends. This honestly, man, if Howard doesn't play, I

307
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: think Brad's the top ten because tight end is just

308
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: so thin. Like would you rather I mean, here's the

309
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: thing is, like would you rather play? I don't know,

310
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: would you'd rather play him over Greg Olsen? And you

311
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: read my mind right now and we're talking, We're gonna

312
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: talk about the other tight end in this game. To Delaney,

313
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: Walker has been banged up as well. John O Smith

314
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: is a nice streamer this week too. If you look

315
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: at the numbers, Tampa Bay is giving up over twenty

316
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: fantasy points per game to tight ends on the road

317
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: this year. So Johnny Smith might be an even better

318
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: streamer than Cameron Braids. So we're gonna have to wait

319
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: and see what happens with Delaney Walker. Back to the

320
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: Bucks the backfield, good luck, throw a dart. I wouldn't

321
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: start either of these guys with any kind of confidence.

322
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: Ronald Jones has more upside none of these It's a

323
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: disaster exactly. So let's go to the Tennessee Titans side.

324
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: I like Ryan Tannehill this week. I like what he

325
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: brought to this offense last week. Gave you nearly twenty

326
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: fantasy points if you were lucky enough to start him

327
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Buccaneers are giving up

328
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 1: the most passing yards per game and over twenty fantasy

329
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: points per game to home quarterbacks this season. Tannehill, I

330
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: don't know if he's got a better arm than Marcus Mariota,

331
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: but he is willing to take chances downfield. That's why

332
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: Corey Davis popped last week. That's why I am telling

333
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: people to start him in this contest against the Buccaneers

334
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: who struggled against receivers lined out wide. That's why I'm

335
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: telling people to pick up A. J. Brown, maybe not

336
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 1: play him this week. If you need a flex starter,

337
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: He's potentially an option this This offense is different with

338
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill one player. Now, I know you gotta play him,

339
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: but Derrick Henry is in a tough spot here. The

340
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: Buccaneers defense has been good against the run. This is

341
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: the only defense in the league that's made Christian McCaffrey

342
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: look mortal this year. Yeah, it's true, and you would think, actually,

343
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: if the Bucks were smart, they would actually start letting

344
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: teams run on them in a little bit more because

345
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: their their secondary is just so so bad. You nailed it, though.

346
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 1: I mean, the big thing for with Tannehill is maybe,

347
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know about his arm strength. I

348
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 1: don't know if he's a you know, he understands the

349
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: offense better. But I do know the one thing I

350
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: do know is Tannehill is willing to take risks, throw

351
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: the ball into tight windows, and give Corey Davis and

352
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: A J. Brown at least a chance, whereas Marcus Mariotta

353
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: just as content just holding onto the ball in pocket

354
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: and taking sacks. And Tennessee's defense, by the way, too,

355
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: is a nice play. The Buccaneers give up a lot

356
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: of sacks and they turn the ball over because their

357
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: quarterback is James Wiston. Moving on, Cardinals at Saints, and

358
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 1: we've got a couple of big injuries in this one,

359
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: led by Alvin Kamara and Drew Brees. Drew Brees, you know,

360
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 1: this is the kind of the same thing we talked

361
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: about with Matt Ryan. Right. The Saints are on. They'll

362
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: have their buy here in week nine, but it sounds

363
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: like Drew Brees is at least pushing to play um

364
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 1: He's missed obviously quite some time with the thumb injury.

365
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara has been back in a limited practice this

366
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 1: week with an ankle and knee issue. I kind of

367
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 1: expect him to play, but also fabs On the Cardinals side,

368
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: they're very banged up. David Johnson hasn't practiced all week

369
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,439
Speaker 1: with an ankle injury. He obviously was they're calling him

370
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,719
Speaker 1: a game time decision. Let's just say DJ was active

371
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: last week but not active in our lives. And then

372
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk might come back with an off his ankle

373
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,719
Speaker 1: injury this week as well, so lots of injuries to monitor.

374
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:31,919
Speaker 1: I think this is the biggest game to monitoring. The

375
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 1: good thing um for fantasy at least, is it's a

376
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: ten am start one excuse me, one pm start on

377
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 1: the East Coast, so you'll be able to know exactly

378
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: you'll you'll know who's gone, and you can audible as

379
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,919
Speaker 1: you need to. So I think either quarterback for the

380
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: Saints is startable. Bridgewater looked good, good matchup against the Cardinals.

381
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: Now on the Cardinals side, you're looking at Kyler Murray,

382
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: who's coming off six point stinker last week, you know,

383
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: gave you a game well you weren't expecting against the Giants,

384
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 1: who struggled against quarterbacks, And you look at the numbers

385
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 1: initially and you're like, well, this looks like a really

386
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: good spot for him overall. But let's keep in mind

387
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 1: the Saints got crushed by quarterbacks in the first three

388
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: weeks of the season. Since then they have not given

389
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: up much. Now I get it, Mitch Drobiski had a

390
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: decent fantasy game last week. It was all garbage time points, right,

391
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: I mean, like this is this is a scenario here

392
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: where you know, Kyler Murray is a guy that you

393
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: might have to play. But the Saints have not allowed

394
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 1: a top ten quarterbacks since Week four, and during that time,

395
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 1: they've given up the sixth fewest passing yards to quarterbacks.

396
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: So don't kid yourself that this is a good matchup

397
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: for Kyler Murray. I agree, it's not. I agree, And

398
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 1: this Saints defense is really starting the heat up there

399
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: at home here. Um, you know Marshawn Lattimore, he really

400
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: struggled to start the season, but he is just absolutely

401
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 1: on a tear over the last couple of weeks. He's

402
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: really done a fantastic job in his coverage. Uh, Saints

403
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: front seven can get after it. Obviously, the Cardinals offensive

404
00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: line is UH significantly overmatched in this game. I'm I'm

405
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 1: definitely a little bit concerned about this Cardinal side. I

406
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: will say if if David Johnson does not play this week,

407
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 1: even though the matchup is tough, even though they're on

408
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: the right chesse Chase Edmonds is a borderline RV one volume,

409
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 1: Absolutely no doubt about that. What are your thoughts on

410
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald? He has disappeared? Yeah, he did the last

411
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: several weeks. He did last week. And you know, this

412
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 1: is kind of something we've seen and something we see

413
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: with a lot of the veteran players is they'll get

414
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: off the hot starts earlier in the season, as the

415
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,719
Speaker 1: season starts to go on and the injuries, you know,

416
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: even though they're not on the injury port, they get

417
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 1: banged up, and you know, fatigue just starts setting. And

418
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: I wonder if that's a little bit with Larry fitz

419
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 1: because he is just you know, he's up there in years.

420
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: You know, he's been playing since two thousand and four now.

421
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: But last week the big problem was targets. I mean,

422
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: he just only saw three in that game where Chase

423
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: Edmonds basically just took over. I think I think that

424
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: will normalize a little bit and he's gonna avoid Lattimore

425
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: out of the slot this week. All right, Uh, let's

426
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: go to uh London. I'm not going to even try

427
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 1: to do an accent because it's gonna sound terrible. Bengals

428
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: Rams injury report. He um, we already know that Malcolm

429
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: Brown out right for this contest. Any other significant injuries.

430
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: We need to be keeping tabs on Bengals cornerbacks. Yeah,

431
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: well doesn't even matter at this point, and the Bengals

432
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 1: are just so so. I mean like when yeah, which

433
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: was like last week, I couldn't believe that Chuck didn't

434
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: have a bigger game when both of their top corners

435
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: were out. Yeah, d D went off, went off, he

436
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 1: had a great game. Um. Yeah, They're gonna be without

437
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 1: William Jackson Andrew Kirkpatrick once again. There. I think they're

438
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 1: both gonna miss at least a few more games with

439
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 1: their injuries. Bengals Just man, I just feel bad for

440
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: Bengals fans, like their their their team. There's now their

441
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: team is now has to go into London there oh

442
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 1: and seven, they've got to play the Rams. It's just

443
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,719
Speaker 1: this is just a really brutal spot overall for them. Really, frankly, fabs,

444
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 1: there's not many injuries in this game outside of Malcolm Brown. Uh.

445
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: There's also not many Bengals I want in my fantasy

446
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: lines this week. I mean, so Tyler Boyd maybe because

447
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: of volume. I mean he's in the top three among

448
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: wide receivers and targets per game and also routs run,

449
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: but he could likely draw Jalen Ramsey. I expect him

450
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: that's that's that's gonna be obviously a bit of an issue.

451
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 1: And Joe Mixon has become unstartable. He averaged two point

452
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 1: seven inches per carry inches inches, not yards, not yards.

453
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: Probably not good when you're taking the tape measure out

454
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 1: for your running back. It's it's awful. And if you

455
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: have Joe Mixon, I can't cut him. I just I can't.

456
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: You can't. I can't do it. I will tell you this,

457
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna talk about this on the show today.

458
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: If you can wait, He's got the Dolphins in Week sixteen.

459
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 1: If your team makes it to the Fantasy Championship, Joe

460
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 1: mix has got the freaking Dolphins. Man, imagine if Joe

461
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 1: Mixon ends up being the Fantasy m v P and

462
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: sixteen after just a dog of a year. Um, so, yeah,

463
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: you can't play him. Play all your rams, all of them,

464
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: golf cup, Woods, Cooks, Everett Girly should eat I mean hell,

465
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 1: even if you're in a deeper league or if you

466
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 1: need a contrarian DFS, play Darrell Henderson. Dude, the Bengals

467
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: defense sucks, man, and they are bad against the run.

468
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and if honestly Henderson is not the worst

469
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: desperation place even because if the if the Bengals get smashed,

470
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: which they probably will, Sorry but they probably will. And

471
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: if they get behind, it's not like Girly is gonna

472
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 1: be playing a ton in the fourth quarter, those those

473
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 1: touches will go to Henderson. What I feel like is,

474
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 1: if Henderson is available in your league, you need to

475
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: pick him up, just because because I feel like he's

476
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: already started to move past Malcolm Brown, who has dealing

477
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: with that ankle, and I mean, God forbid anything happened

478
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: to Todd Gurley. Guys, Henderson could end up being a

479
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: league winner down the stretch. So if he's available in

480
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: your league, get him, Okay, speculative ad go out and

481
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: get him. That's probably the easiest preview we're gonna do,

482
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: because it's like start all your Rams and almost none

483
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: of your Bengals moving on. Eagles at Bills. Are we

484
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: looking at any big injuries in this one? Graham? Yeah,

485
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: not many injuries to monitor outside of DeShawn Jackson's ling

486
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: ring ab issue. He's not played for over a month.

487
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: I don't expect him to play this week. This is

488
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 1: just a really, really tough spot for the man like

489
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 1: Over their past ten home games, the Bills have held

490
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: opposing quarterbacks to a six to eleven touchdown to interception ratio,

491
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: so six touchdowns to eleven picks over the last ten

492
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 1: home games. UH. This year, only the Patriots are allowing

493
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: fewer fantasy points per pass attempt to opposing quarterbacks. I mean,

494
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 1: you're You've likely got to start Earth's because Titan is

495
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: just so brutal week saying it all year lately. Man,

496
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 1: I got him in one league and I just yeah,

497
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 1: but what am I gonna do? You gotta freaking play exactly,

498
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: and you probably have to play Carson Wentz, especially in

499
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 1: a week where we don't have Dac and Lamar. But

500
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I feel like there's better, Like

501
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 1: I would almost play Mason Rudolph over Carson. I mean,

502
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: call me crazy. I have him very closely right, So

503
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: if you play it safe, it's wins. If you want

504
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: to go for the home run Mason Mason Rudolph. That's

505
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,920
Speaker 1: how bad the Dolphins defenses. So on the on the

506
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 1: Philadelphia side, this great match, I mean, there's not much

507
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: to like alshon Jeffrey is a fade for me this

508
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: week against tradevious White Uh, to me, Carson Wentz is

509
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 1: a fade. I don't believe the Bills have given up

510
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 1: multiple touchdown passes to a quarterback all season. Okay, and

511
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 1: I go back to remembering what they did to Tom Brady.

512
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: I think he had three points against them on their

513
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: home field. So a lot of fades. Hell, even the

514
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: kicker jkl and fading him to him, fading everybody Zach arts.

515
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,360
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, you probably gotta play Buffalo side. This

516
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: is the second of five very favorable matchups for Josh Allen.

517
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 1: Get him into your lineup. Uh. The Eagles have been

518
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 1: given up to quarterbacks all season long, so keep him active.

519
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 1: I don't really like the matchup for Frank Gore and

520
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,959
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary because if the Eagles are good at anything

521
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 1: on defense, it's stopping the run. So I would sit

522
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: the old man. I would sit the kid. This week.

523
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: John Brown is a very strong start again. We told

524
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 1: you to start him last week. Get him into your

525
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,359
Speaker 1: lineup this week. The Eagles have allowed nine touchdowns and

526
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 1: the most fantasy points to receivers. Line out. Why that's

527
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 1: where Brown is running right around his routes. Cole Beasley,

528
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,439
Speaker 1: I feel like is worth a dart through if you

529
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: need help in a deeper league at a flex position.

530
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: And that's probably about Yeah, Buffalo's defenses isn't kind of

531
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 1: play I mean anything. They're probably at the back end

532
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: of the tie of the defensive ones, uh this this

533
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: week based on the matchup. Yeah, there's not much to

534
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 1: like in this game. Both backfields are pretty much fades.

535
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 1: This week. I will say Bills d I have them

536
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 1: in a few leagues. I'm holding on and playing them

537
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: this week at home against the Eagles because next week

538
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: they get the Redskins out love it. Chargers at Bears.

539
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: Chargers are going down like flies, dude. I mean they

540
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: just lost Forced lamp right. I mean their offensive line

541
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 1: is banged up and Melvin Ingram has been banged up.

542
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: I mean this defense that they're hurting with the injuries

543
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 1: right now. They really are the Chargers. This is just

544
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: a reoccurring thing for the Chargers every single year. Their

545
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: their injury report is just uh jam packed with a

546
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: bunch of talented players that they've been relying on. Um

547
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: this week. I mean really for fantasy, there's not any

548
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 1: like huge impact players that are going to be out.

549
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: But you mentioned their defensive line. Last week, they were

550
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: without three starters Melvin Ingram like you mentioned Miss, they

551
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 1: also were without their top two defensive tackles, Justin Jones

552
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,160
Speaker 1: and Brandon Mebane. And it looks like both of those

553
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: guys are not going to play this week. Again. They

554
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: have not practiced all week with their injuries. So again

555
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: theabs we're sitting in a matchup. David Montgomery is at

556
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: home against this very very banged up Chargers defensive line

557
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 1: that has given up like four and a half yards

558
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 1: per carry over the last three weeks. They're they're really struggling.

559
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: I still have no confidence whatsoever, and you can't have

560
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 1: any confidence starting David Montgomery. But man, that this has

561
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: to be the spot right. It has to be after

562
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,479
Speaker 1: Nagie gets called out by everyone, even if not just

563
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 1: running at all. Right, Yeah, I am my coomeries. I

564
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: only have two teams on a buy. But I mean

565
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:54,679
Speaker 1: you have Zeke and you have Angram, so people are

566
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 1: going to be uh looking for some replacements. Yeah, I

567
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,160
Speaker 1: play them this week. I didn't like him last week,

568
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 1: and I would play him this week and hope that

569
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: better things are on the horizon for David Montgomery. Because

570
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 1: let's be honest, he's been a bust based on a

571
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 1: lot of what the fantasy industry had projected for him,

572
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 1: uh during his rookie campaign. Now we'll stick with the

573
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 1: Chargers side here too. Now Philip purposes a fade for me.

574
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: The Bears defense has been awful against the run. The

575
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 1: last two running backs they have faced, Josh Jacobs gashed him.

576
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 1: Lettavius Murray, a backup, gashed them for thirty two points.

577
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: I'm starting Eckler and that's a no brainer. Here's the difference, though,

578
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon. Here's the Velvin Gordon. No, here's the difference

579
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: the Raiders and um. The Raiders actually have a good

580
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 1: offensive line in the Saints have have one of the

581
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 1: best offensive lines of best schemes for the past four

582
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: or five years. That the Chargers just don't right now.

583
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: They cannot run the ball, and Melvin Gordon has just

584
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: been absolutely brutal on the ground. I'm with you. I

585
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: think you you start Ekeler, but I would really heavily

586
00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 1: consider benching Melvin Gordon because it's likely you have a

587
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: receiver on your bench that you feel comfortable playing over Gordon,

588
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: and in that case, just play him, you know, play

589
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: that receiver in the flex ever Gordon, and hope that

590
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: you have at least two better running back plays because

591
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 1: I am I just want no part of Melvin Gordon

592
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: this week. You know, I know it's that the spot

593
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: might be right, but the Chargers many they have really

594
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: really backed themselves into a corner and it's it's their

595
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: offense is just so much better with Austin Nikela, And

596
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 1: you would think rational coaching would dictate Ekela would just

597
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: end up playing more. Speaking of receivers, Keenan Allen popped

598
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: up with an injured hamstring yesterday and he didn't practice

599
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 1: at all. That's bad news. So right now it's nine

600
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: o'clock Pacific, we're not going to know what his status

601
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: is uh for this podcast, unfortunately, but it's not good news.

602
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: If he practices on a limited basis today. Okay, you

603
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: can feel confident, but the matchups bad. Keenan Allen statistically

604
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: has not been great lately. And I'll tell you something.

605
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 1: I mean, you probably have to play him, assuming he's

606
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: going to be active, but if he can't play this week,

607
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: I mean Travis Benjamin Hurt, Don Treille Inman Hurt, it's

608
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 1: gonna be Mike Williams and Hunter Henry, that's it. If

609
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen can't play, that's it. So maybe maybe you

610
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: throw Mike Williams in there, just based on potential volume,

611
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: even though the matchup is not great. I'm just hoping

612
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: that the Charges are being very, very precautious with their

613
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: star receiver there and hopefully Keenan will be just fine

614
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: on the bare side of things. Uh, I'm sorry, I'm

615
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 1: not starting Mr Trobiski. Don't care garbage time yesterday, whatever,

616
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: the Chargers defense banged up, Don't trust him, don't want him.

617
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: Alan Robinson has become a virtual must start. He's playing

618
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 1: great football right now, one of the most underrated receivers

619
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: in the National Football League, and he's shocking that the

620
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: awful quarterback play in Chicago has not neutered him. Statistically,

621
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: it has not. So keep Keenan Allen, I'm sorry, to

622
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: keep Allen Robinson in your starting lineup, and keep tabs

623
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 1: on Keenan Allen and UH in the next twelve hours

624
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: here and we'll find a little bit more on him.

625
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 1: Moving on, Giants at Lions, we already know Sterling Shepherd

626
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: is not going to play again any other big injuries. No,

627
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 1: no other injuries. Really, the monitor in this game, Giants

628
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 1: side is pretty much healthily finally after except for Sterling

629
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: Shepherd after being extremely banged up. Lions side is again

630
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: we know the injuries. Obviously, carry On Johnson is gonna

631
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: be on. He's on. I R He's gonna be pretty

632
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 1: much out for the rest of the fantasy season. Um.

633
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think really the big the big story

634
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 1: in this game for fantasy is how many touches are

635
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: we expecting Ty Johnson to get here? And you know,

636
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: if it, if at all, what what kind of rotation

637
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: will the Lions be running out behind him with j D. Mckissic,

638
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: Trey Carson and Paul Perkins. Yeah, no question about that,

639
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 1: because this is a guy who's going into a situation

640
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: where carry On was a feature back. I mean, he

641
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: was giving you sevent snaps, he was giving you or

642
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 1: right around twenty four touches a game, and now I

643
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: don't know that I expect Ti Johnson to do that.

644
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: This is sort of one of those like prove it

645
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 1: weeks for this it right and the matchup is good.

646
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: I mean, the Giants got crushed by Chase Edmonds last

647
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 1: week three touchdowns over twenty fantasy points. So it's a

648
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: good spot. I have Ty Johnson. I only got him

649
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 1: in one league. Um, I'm starting him even if he's

650
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: a flex guys, you're starting him. Potential for volume, great matchup. Uh,

651
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: let's stick with the Lions side. Matthew Staffords a great start.

652
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 1: But I mean in the fantasy industry, we buried him

653
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: after last year, we had buried him, and coming into

654
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: this year, we're thinking run heavy team. They want to

655
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: run the ball and play good defense under Matt Patricia.

656
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: And suddenly Stafford has become a very I don't know

657
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: how reliable he is. He's been somewhat reliable, but he's

658
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: putting up numbers. Yeah, he's last week monster game. He's

659
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: a startable asset this week against the Giants. Yeah, He's

660
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 1: been great for fantasy this year. Outside of the two

661
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: games against the Eagles and Packers on the road, he

662
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 1: has multiple passing scores in every game. I think he's

663
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 1: like the QB eight or QB nine and points per game.

664
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 1: And now over the next two weeks he gets here

665
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 1: this great spot at home against the Giants, and then

666
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: Week nine he gets to play the Raiders, so I'm

667
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 1: treating Stafford as a QB one and definitely took an

668
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: l on him and kind of wish I had Stafford

669
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: in a few more leaks because he was free. I

670
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 1: mean he was free. He was free. He was basically

671
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: not drafted in twelve, I mean not tappened to. Those

672
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: two guys were free. That's why we don't draft quarterbacks early.

673
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: Uh Kenney Gallaity gave you a stinker last week. The

674
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: Giants are given up an average hundred forty yards and

675
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 1: the seventh most fantasy points of receivers lined out wide

676
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: galities must start. Marvin Jones is a good start. If

677
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: he gets four touchdowns again, it would be the first

678
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 1: time I think it's ever happened. It's not but stardom

679
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: because the matchup is good, and I would fade t J. Hockinson,

680
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: though I don't know where you are on this. The

681
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 1: Giants actually haven't been that bad against tight ends this season,

682
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 1: so Hockinson to me, ever since Week one has really

683
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: been basically invisible statistically, so hard for me to promote

684
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 1: him in this matchup. As I mentioned, the Giants have

685
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 1: not been bad against tight ends the beginning. Gashed by

686
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 1: everybody else, but the tight end position has not been

687
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: one of them. Giants. Sakwan Barkley obvious. He's act came

688
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: back last week. He's gonna get a full workload this week.

689
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: Golden Taten. Lots of revenge games start Golden Tate this week,

690
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: my friends, fourteen or more fantasy points in two straight games.

691
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 1: Detroit's defense has given up ninety two yards per game

692
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: to the slot, and opposing teams have targeted Detroit slot

693
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,919
Speaker 1: corners a league high fifteen point two times per game.

694
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: And Daniel Jones likes to throw the slot, it makes sense.

695
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:31,279
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram, I don't know what the hell happened last week? Man,

696
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: I know Jones took eight sacks. He I mean, he

697
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,120
Speaker 1: really freakings, but red Ellison scored. Why can't that go

698
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 1: to So I didn't text Ivan this week, and I'm

699
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 1: gonna leave him alone. But start them. I mean, the

700
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: Lions just gave up sixteen point eight to Kyle Rudolph

701
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,919
Speaker 1: a week ago, so um, maybe that's low hanging fruit,

702
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 1: but uh, start him. And by the way, defensive streamer Lions,

703
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 1: I'm streaming him in one of my leagues. I think

704
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 1: that's a good play. Jets at January's injuries. Yeah, really,

705
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,439
Speaker 1: the only note I have in this game is Chris

706
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 1: Hernet's can hinduing and lingering hamstring issue. A Beat reporter,

707
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: I'm I'm sorry that their name is slipping my night,

708
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 1: my mind right now basically said that he's not expecting

709
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 1: Herndon to play. He's basically been limited all week, and

710
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 1: as we know, hamstring injuries just continue to linger. I

711
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: think you know, Hernan's continued absence just boosts Jamison Crowder's

712
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: volume potential. I mean, last week, obviously with the Jets,

713
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,240
Speaker 1: we we don't need to discuss what happened there. Obviously,

714
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,439
Speaker 1: the Patriots just completely shut down their offense. This week

715
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: is just such a better matchup against this jag secondary

716
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 1: without Jalen Ramsey. Just a quick note here on the Saints.

717
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 1: Uh I just a d M. Katherine Terrell, who's who's

718
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 1: awesome and covers the Saints, and she just told me

719
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 1: that Breese was doing some first team stuff in practice today.

720
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 1: She expects him to play. It's kind of what it's

721
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 1: trying to get practice. He's expected to play. The breeze

722
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 1: thing is surprising, it's kind of it's interesting that they're

723
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 1: bringing him back a week before the by Maybe they

724
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: just want to kind of get him loose, to get

725
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: him going for the rest of the season, because this

726
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: is a very winnable game with Bridgewater. I mean, hell,

727
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 1: he's undefeated. Oh yeah, so, uh, cat Terrell with some

728
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: great information there, guys, So keep tabs on that. Back

729
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 1: to the Jets and the Jaguars. Here, are you starting

730
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: any Jets not named Levian Bell? Yeah? I think Robby Anderson,

731
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: Jamison crowd are fine place this week. I mean, look,

732
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: I know Sam Donald really struggled last week. I know,

733
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 1: I know we've seen him play. I mean, he's been

734
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 1: extremely up and down. But this Jags secondary is really

735
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: struggling on their own. I mean they've given up. Even

736
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: though they haven't given up a bunch of like huge

737
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:34,280
Speaker 1: quarterback performances, they continually get whacked by opposing wide receivers.

738
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 1: I mean, over the past couple of weeks that it's

739
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 1: they've they've really really struggled. So last week, um, the Jags,

740
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,480
Speaker 1: excuse me. The Jacks played the Bengals and Alex Erickson

741
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: went for eight one thirty seven. The prior week, Michael

742
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 1: Thomas was fine with eight for eighty nine. They give

743
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 1: up six to ninety one for two d J Moore,

744
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 1: Courtland Sutton got him for over a hundred yards. Um,

745
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 1: excuse me, I Mane Sanders got him for over a

746
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 1: hundred yards and Sutton had two touchdowns. They guys, you

747
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 1: can play receivers against the Jacks now and be fine.

748
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 1: I think Crowder and Anderson are both really good receivers.

749
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 1: Like Crowder more um, Anderson just scares me. I don't know,

750
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: man Like, there's the report that you know the Jets

751
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: are looking to trade him Sam Donald, and I get it.

752
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: I mean it was the pages. But he looked awful

753
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,399
Speaker 1: last week. So hopefully this is a bounce back game

754
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,399
Speaker 1: because Donald's got a really good schedule oh yeah, down

755
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 1: the stretch, and we need him to have confidence because

756
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: if Fanta Sooner is going to be able to lean

757
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: on this kid, we need to see more than what

758
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: we saw last week, which was negative six point six

759
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,479
Speaker 1: six fantasy points. I wish I could play some iron

760
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: Maid right now. On the Jaguar side. What do you

761
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: think of Minshew? I mean, the Jets actually have not

762
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 1: given it up to quarterbacks this season. They have it.

763
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 1: He's a fine I think he's a fine stream and play.

764
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 1: He's he's in that conversation. He's kind of like I

765
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: think on the borderline with like where we're expecting Carson

766
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: Wentz is a range of outcomes to come, kind of

767
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: like low n QB one. I think this is a

768
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: very stray forward game for the Jacks, right, Like let

769
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette as a must play. DJ Chark uh and

770
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: D D. West Broke our good receiver to plays again

771
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:05,919
Speaker 1: this week. You know, the Jets, um, they can't cover

772
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: these two guys, right, I mean they they just don't

773
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: have a cornerback play too to keep up with Chark

774
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: and Westbrook speed. But yeah, I think this is a

775
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: pretty straightforward game for the Jackson Yeah, if you have

776
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: the Jags defense, start them. And lest we forget the kickers.

777
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 1: I like Josh Lambo. He's actually been really good this year.

778
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 1: And you know, Justin Tucker is on a by one

779
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: of the best kickers in fantasy football, if not the best.

780
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 1: So um, people are gonna be looking for alternatives and

781
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 1: we cover it all here on the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast.

782
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 1: Jake Celey, I love you. I'm still talking kickers. Let's

783
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 1: move on Panthers at forty Niners and what to me,

784
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: Graham is one of the most interesting fantasy games of

785
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 1: the week. Why, well, Christian McCaffrey, who You're going to

786
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 1: play obviously against the best defense against the run in

787
00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: the National Football League as it pertains to fantasy foot ball. Yeah,

788
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: I know, And this is like gonna be a an

789
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 1: absolute dog fight. It will, it will, And Christian obviously

790
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: is a must play this week. He's got no running

791
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: back really maybe outside of Leonard for Net has a

792
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: higher touch expectation. I think the more interesting storyline here

793
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 1: is like what do we do with the Manuel Sanders?

794
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,359
Speaker 1: What do we do with some of these Panthers receivers? Right,

795
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 1: because these like DJ More, Curtis Samuel, and Emmanuel Sanders

796
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 1: this week are all such fringe e type plays and honestly,

797
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: I really don't know what to do with them. Yeah,

798
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,839
Speaker 1: I think More is probably a bench you're benching. You're

799
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 1: benching More and again we give We'll give you some

800
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: tight end options later. Right, this is a really tough

801
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: game to find very many players their fantasy options. There's hell,

802
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 1: I wouldn't play Joey Slide this week. I'm not playing

803
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: any Panthers. I have DJ More in several leagues. I'm

804
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 1: not playing him. I have Greg Olsen in in our

805
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live league, and I am I am looking

806
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: to replace him. I already picked up John new Smith,

807
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: and depending on what happens with Delaney Walker, I might

808
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: put him in there and go for the go for

809
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 1: the home run rather than play Grey Golson. So on

810
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 1: the Sandras social side of things, there's not a lot

811
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,800
Speaker 1: to like. Baroppolo is a fade for me um. The

812
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 1: Panthers defense is pretty good, although they haven't made great

813
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: against the run. I'm starting Tevin Coleman, even if he's

814
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: just a flex. I believe they've given up four top

815
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 1: fourteen Fantasy running backs in six games this year. The

816
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: Panthers defense has Sanders see. I mean, it's hard to

817
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: project that because, like I get it, there are similarities

818
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 1: between the offenses and there's gonna be opportunities. I don't

819
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 1: know if he's gonna be limited in terms of his

820
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: snaps this week, but Dante Pettis has been an abjectives

821
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: after this year, Deebo Samuels banged up. They need Sanders

822
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,359
Speaker 1: to come in. And while I think Sanders is better

823
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: served from a fantasy standpoint in San Francisco than he

824
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 1: was in Denver. I don't know if I'm starting him

825
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, I agree. I'm gonna be aware of

826
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: of Emmanuel Sanders this week and fantasy because I think

827
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,280
Speaker 1: he's gonna play quite a bit, and I expect Sanders

828
00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 1: to be the Niners new slot receiver. I think they'll

829
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 1: play Pettis and Goodwin outside in debo when he comes back.

830
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 1: I think Sanders will playoff the slot. But it's just

831
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 1: one of those things where the Niners when they're throwing,

832
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: they're not really throwing a bunch to the receiver's Obviously

833
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,719
Speaker 1: that tendency can change now that they have maybe a

834
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,359
Speaker 1: true number one receiver, but when they are throwing, it's

835
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,320
Speaker 1: all to Kittle. There's a lot of dump offster running backs.

836
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 1: Home and ambre To have both been relatively involved in

837
00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: the passing game there because they spread the ball out

838
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: so much. I'm inclined to leave Sanders on my bench

839
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: this week and just kind of see how the Niners

840
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: intend to use him moving forward. Yep, and uh, I'm

841
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: still playing the Niners defense as good as Kyle Allen

842
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: as Benny's not turning the ball over home game. Niners.

843
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,360
Speaker 1: I mean they've sort of become They're not the Patriots

844
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 1: where I mean that defense has just banandas every week.

845
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,960
Speaker 1: But the Niners defense has been pretty reliable for you

846
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 1: over the last three weeks. Moving on Raiders at Texans

847
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 1: and Josh Jacobs is a big time question mark at

848
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 1: this point. He hasn't been practicing and we need to

849
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:56,760
Speaker 1: see what his partation his participation status is on Friday

850
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: before we make a decision on whether or not to

851
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,839
Speaker 1: play him or aram. Yeah, he popped up this week

852
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: with a shoulder injury. Apparently. John Gruen said he heard

853
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,320
Speaker 1: it during their game this past week against the Packers,

854
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: played through it. Josh Jacobs did say he can play

855
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: this weekend without practicing. That's pretty obvious by now. But yeah,

856
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 1: you're obviously monitoring Jacob's injury and hopefully it's not a

857
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:21,240
Speaker 1: game time decision because because this game starts at coast.

858
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 1: So if you are ensuring yourself, if you in your

859
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 1: deeper league, maybe deanro Washington, um, if Jacob's misses, they'll

860
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 1: go with some sort of grow middy middy with Jayleen

861
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 1: or Shard in Washington. Yeah, exactly. Uh, is Derek car

862
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,439
Speaker 1: sleeper in this game? I mean, Tyroll Williams has banged out.

863
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 1: I get it. Derek hasn't done much of anything. But

864
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: if you're in a two QB league or a super

865
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: flex league, Houston's defense has not been great against quarterback. Yeah.

866
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 1: I think it's only a two QB league play though. Okay, yeah,

867
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: the volume. The Raiders just aren't throwing a ton. They're

868
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: really relying on Josh Jacobs their offensive line. I was

869
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,799
Speaker 1: definitely wrong about the Their offensive line has been very

870
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:01,839
Speaker 1: good this year. Darren Waller has become me duh must start.

871
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean, hell, he's if if you asked me, and

872
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 1: this is This is how unpredictable and crazy the NFL

873
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: and fantasy football is right now. If you could go

874
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: back to your draft and take either Travis Kelsey or

875
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 1: Darren Waller at cost, Darren Waller all day long, a

876
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: hundred times out of a hundred, Darren fricking Waller over

877
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:23,839
Speaker 1: the best tight end and fantasy football for the last

878
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 1: three years. Yeah, and that cost. I think that makes sense. Unbelievable. Um,

879
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,840
Speaker 1: I want to say this is just an amazing spot

880
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,840
Speaker 1: for Kenny Still. I was just going to mention and

881
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,399
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, the whole tax Texans passing attack as a whole.

882
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 1: Key Ki Ki is a sleeper play this week. Look,

883
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,240
Speaker 1: the Raiders are just getting absolutely destroyed on deep passes.

884
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 1: They've allowed a league high fifty percent completion rate on

885
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 1: deep ball just twenty or more yards down field. The

886
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:51,479
Speaker 1: Raiders have already allowed eight touchdowns on throws traveling twenty

887
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 1: or more yards downfield. Aaron Rodgers just absolutely ripped in

888
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 1: the shreds last week. And because they're just showing such

889
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 1: signs of not only just more coverage, but you know,

890
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 1: communication breakdowns in the secondary, Deshaun Watson and this whole

891
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 1: Texans team just has so much upside through the air.

892
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,239
Speaker 1: I played Carlos Hide, He's a flex this week. The

893
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: Raiders are given up around eight catches a game to

894
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 1: running backs and over fantasy points per games. So uh,

895
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,400
Speaker 1: Hide does a playover Duke Johnson for me, which has

896
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 1: been the norm weekend and week out, and moving on

897
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 1: now of Texans defense, by the way, potentially could be

898
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 1: a decent streamer this week. Back in the preseason, the

899
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: NFL had this game circled as a potential a f

900
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 1: C championship matchup, and now it is David versus Goliath

901
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: Brown Patriots, Graham Barfield besides Nick Chubb, who isn't a

902
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,799
Speaker 1: good play either. Are you starting any Browns? I if

903
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: you have you have that wide receiver, tell me who

904
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 1: you're starting over Odell Beckham Jr. This week? Yeah? I

905
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 1: think you know there's maybe fifteen or twenty ish guys

906
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: I would play over O b J. This week. But

907
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 1: even that, like you most likely or are, unless you're

908
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,960
Speaker 1: in a really really shallow tin team league, you're probably

909
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:12,799
Speaker 1: gonna be playing Beckham and most of your lineups and

910
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,480
Speaker 1: just praying we know by now what the Patriots are

911
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:17,880
Speaker 1: gonna do. They're gonna match up Stefan gilmouran Beckham, and

912
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna bracket Beckham and basically not allow him to

913
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:23,920
Speaker 1: do very much and forced Baker Mayfield to beat them

914
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 1: with Jarvis Landry and and Richard Higgins and uh and

915
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:31,239
Speaker 1: Antonio Callaway has just man, it's it's so funny. Like

916
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:33,959
Speaker 1: you mentioned, it's it's the Browns are in a really

917
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,320
Speaker 1: really tough spot here on the road. I really, outside

918
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,400
Speaker 1: of Nick Chubb, there's not there's no one you can

919
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,880
Speaker 1: start with any confidence here, all right, so quickly, I'm

920
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,760
Speaker 1: gonna play a little game of Odell Beckham Jr. Or Okay,

921
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,959
Speaker 1: let's do it, oh b j or John Brown, Wow,

922
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 1: John Brown, O b j R. Julian Edelman, Edelman O

923
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: b j Or Tyree Hill with Matt Moore. Yeah, Tye

924
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 1: freak oh b j or tie at t Y Hilton

925
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 1: in a tough matchup. That's right. I think that's where

926
00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 1: I draw the line. I mean, that's right where it's at, right, Okay, Yeah,

927
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 1: that's where it is. Yeah, I think he I mean

928
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,399
Speaker 1: you were treating him as a receiver to way against

929
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,239
Speaker 1: Chris Harris. That's where you're like it is, Yeah, that's

930
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,360
Speaker 1: where that's where you're treating Beckham as a receiver to

931
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,760
Speaker 1: this week and and just praying that he can maybe

932
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 1: have one big play where Stephon Gilmour. I don't know,

933
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,320
Speaker 1: either falls down or slips or something right, sting, Stupid's

934
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 1: gotta happen. So like Mike Evans, Marvin Jones, Kenny Galladay,

935
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on with Keenan All and

936
00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 1: d J. Chark, Golden, Tate, Cortland, Sutton, Allen Robinson All

937
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,160
Speaker 1: ahead of O b J. This is where we're at.

938
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 1: I think for this week, I think you could play

939
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 1: Sutton and I don't know about a Rob, but I

940
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 1: would I would play Sutton over Backham. I think. Okay, um,

941
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 1: this is this is where we're at. It's unbelievable. So

942
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 1: at Baker Mayfield is unplayable. He hasn't been playable all

943
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 1: year long. He's had one decent game and that's because

944
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 1: you rushed for a touchdown in that game. He's listen, guys,

945
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:58,759
Speaker 1: we were all wrong on him. And uh, I don't

946
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: know why he's on fantasy teams. Should be on the

947
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,920
Speaker 1: waiver wire until maybe later in the season when his

948
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:04,839
Speaker 1: schedule gets a little bit better. I know he plays

949
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Uh maybe maybe that's the only game that

950
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 1: we start Baker Mayfield Patriots side Tom Brady. I have

951
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,440
Speaker 1: a feeling Tom Brady is going to go off in

952
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: this game. Tom Brady is going and Bill Belichick are

953
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 1: going to want to squash this team on their home field. Okay,

954
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:25,359
Speaker 1: in in New England at Gilette State. They're gonna want

955
00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:28,360
Speaker 1: to squash the Browns because they probably got sick in

956
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 1: the preseason up here in all the crap about how

957
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 1: they signed O b J and they brought in all

958
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,520
Speaker 1: these players and the Browns are no legitimate contenders for

959
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 1: the a f C and that they are going to

960
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 1: potentially dethrow in the New England Patriots. Belichick and Brady

961
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:45,800
Speaker 1: want to crush this team. They want to destroy this team,

962
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,759
Speaker 1: They want to embarrass this team. I think Tom Brady

963
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 1: has a monster stat line in this contest. I think

964
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman has a great stat line in this contest.

965
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: Depending on what happens with Rex Burkhead, because we all

966
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 1: know Burkehead has been missing time. Sony Michelle is gonna

967
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 1: crush names White is gonna crush Okay, I don't know

968
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 1: that I'm starting Mohamed Snoo because I don't know if

969
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:05,759
Speaker 1: he's gonna be on a snap Coount. I will tell

970
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 1: you this that trade, especially with Josh Gordon now being

971
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:11,920
Speaker 1: on injured reserve and basically gone huge for his fantasy value,

972
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 1: Patriots defense must start. Hell. I'm starting Mike Nugent. I

973
00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 1: really feel like this is a week where the Patriots

974
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,040
Speaker 1: are gonna do everything they can to put their foot

975
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 1: down on the Brown's throats and and their misery, because

976
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 1: if they get crushed by the Patriots. That's it. The

977
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 1: Browns are going to be written off this season. Hey,

978
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry said they're gonna win the Browns. He came

979
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 1: out and said yesterday the Browns are gonna win. Jarvis

980
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,319
Speaker 1: Landry also said that I was wrong and telling people

981
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:39,760
Speaker 1: to sit him, and then he was the wide receiver

982
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:43,240
Speaker 1: thirty and I would say to him as well this week. So, um,

983
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,319
Speaker 1: I'm very interested to see what happens in that game.

984
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:47,840
Speaker 1: But start all your Patriots basically, and all your Browns.

985
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:52,320
Speaker 1: Crush your fingers or sid him packers at Chiefs now.

986
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,880
Speaker 1: Unless Patrick Mahomes is Superman, unless this dude is made

987
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:59,760
Speaker 1: out of adam anteum, unless this guy is an absolute cyborg,

988
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 1: he can't. There's no way he's playing this week. I

989
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: get it. He's been getting some looks. I don't know

990
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 1: that he's gonna play this week, and it's gonna be

991
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 1: mad getting most of the first tame reps, right, So, yeah,

992
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:10,800
Speaker 1: we should be expecting Matt more Innerson. Yeah, Patrick Mahomes

993
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,719
Speaker 1: is not playned this week. I know we kind of

994
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,040
Speaker 1: maybe got a little bit excited seeing him. Uh do

995
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:20,960
Speaker 1: some limited I would assume very limited practice work this week.

996
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 1: He's not playing. Look that the Chiefs have no incentive

997
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:27,480
Speaker 1: to play him. Uh. The the their division, the f

998
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:30,160
Speaker 1: C West, has just been pretty brutal. There's no one

999
00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:32,279
Speaker 1: that's going to become that's likely going to come within

1000
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: shouting distance uh from them. So even if Mahomes misses

1001
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 1: a few games, there's really no downside for them. You know,

1002
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 1: this game would be amazing if Mahomes were playing, it

1003
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,000
Speaker 1: would be amazing home Matt Carrowhead. That lots of pace

1004
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:48,080
Speaker 1: in this game. And and now really there's not I mean,

1005
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:50,640
Speaker 1: if there's some there's the obvious guys, right, you're playing

1006
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers are playing Aaron Jones and and Tyreek and Kelsey.

1007
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,520
Speaker 1: But really outside of that, there's not a ton of

1008
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,240
Speaker 1: fantasy upside I think in this game. And the Packers

1009
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 1: could frankly just kind of, you know, control this game

1010
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:02,319
Speaker 1: a little bit, run the ball a bunch because the

1011
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:06,120
Speaker 1: Chiefs run defense is really struggling, and you know, it's

1012
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:07,600
Speaker 1: just kind of a bummer. We won't have my homes

1013
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 1: for the spot. Yeah, I mean, it would be the

1014
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:14,400
Speaker 1: current elite number one fantasy quarterback against the long time

1015
00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 1: elite number one fantasy quarterback. But give me your so

1016
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,759
Speaker 1: Tyree kill. Obviously you're gonna play him, even with Matt

1017
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:22,839
Speaker 1: Mortner center. Last week he had that that that long

1018
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,799
Speaker 1: touchdown that sort of saved his bacon. And you're gonna

1019
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:27,960
Speaker 1: play Kelsey. I don't think you could play any other

1020
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 1: Chiefs receiver. Uh, Sammy Watkins I believe is getting closer

1021
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:34,600
Speaker 1: to coming back. Uh, Nicole Harden. He can't play Marcus Robinson.

1022
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:38,040
Speaker 1: You can't play that backfield though. This is what sucks.

1023
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,840
Speaker 1: This is a good matchup for their running backs, for

1024
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,319
Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy and particular, this is a good matchup. Okay,

1025
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 1: Green Bay's defense has not been good against the run

1026
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 1: this year. We've seen them get dashed on a regular basis.

1027
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:53,040
Speaker 1: Almost Do you play Lishan McCoy, Yeah, I think McCoy

1028
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 1: is a flex this week. I think he's a fine

1029
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,440
Speaker 1: flex play that. The bigger one is Damian Wims. I

1030
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,640
Speaker 1: know we talked on the Wednesday. I can't play him, right,

1031
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:02,280
Speaker 1: I mean, because he's he's a borderline dropp herble player

1032
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,760
Speaker 1: in ten team leagues. At this point, I think McCoy

1033
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 1: is the play over Williams. Again, it's not necessarily something

1034
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 1: you can have much confidence in. But last week McCoy

1035
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:14,239
Speaker 1: did see twelve carries, also saw two targets. He played

1036
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: the snaps that that led the team. The prior week

1037
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: he was on fifty of the snaps and again leading

1038
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,360
Speaker 1: the team there. So after his zero carry game in

1039
00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: Week five, McCoy has kind of been reinserted as the

1040
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:29,279
Speaker 1: Chiefs and I'm quoting here like lead running back. His

1041
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:31,360
Speaker 1: top two two of his excuse me, three of his

1042
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 1: top four snap rates have come in the last four weeks.

1043
00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 1: But again, it's just one of those things. I mean,

1044
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:39,839
Speaker 1: McCoy doesn't have more than twelve carries this year. Matt

1045
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:41,759
Speaker 1: Moore is the starting quarterback, and it's just you know,

1046
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 1: those reds and opportunities are gonna be significantly diminished in

1047
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 1: this game. Yeah. So um, that's that's one of those

1048
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,880
Speaker 1: scenarios where you might play McCoy and not love it

1049
00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 1: because the matchup is great, But I mean that that

1050
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:57,880
Speaker 1: that backfield has become an absolute headache, uh for fantasy

1051
00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 1: fans and fantasy analysts. Like moving on to the Packers,

1052
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 1: Davante Adams is getting closer. I don't know if he's

1053
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 1: coming back this week, and this is the Sunday night game.

1054
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 1: This is this is kind of hard to sit back

1055
00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 1: and wait for him unless you have maybe MVS. And

1056
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: this is an awful matchup for MVS. I said this

1057
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:18,280
Speaker 1: on NFL Fantasy Live last week. The Chiefs are very

1058
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 1: stingy against receivers lined out wide. No Packers receiver lines

1059
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:25,319
Speaker 1: out wide more than MVS. So he's a fade for me.

1060
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 1: I get it. He had a big stat line last week,

1061
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 1: but he only caught two passes. I mean, he had

1062
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 1: a hundred and thirty three yards I too freaking catches.

1063
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:35,120
Speaker 1: So he's a fade for me. I Jimmy Graham, I

1064
00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,759
Speaker 1: guess is a startable asset because the Chiefs are given

1065
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:39,520
Speaker 1: up right around seven or eight catches per game to

1066
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,360
Speaker 1: tight ends. But Graham is I mean, he's one of

1067
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 1: those sort of Hey, I never know what I'm gonna get. Yeah,

1068
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 1: matchups right, and if Adams is out again, you can

1069
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 1: play him. Yeah, you know. The volume has just been

1070
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 1: so weird for him. The Packers are basically just using

1071
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 1: him as a wide receiver. They basically don't put him

1072
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:56,840
Speaker 1: on the line of scrimmage because at this point in

1073
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 1: his career, Jimmy Graham cannot block. But over the past

1074
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, like he you know, nine targets a

1075
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,080
Speaker 1: week four, then would down at three and week five,

1076
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:05,640
Speaker 1: and over the last two weeks he's had five and

1077
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 1: four targets. Obviously, last week he just went nuts because

1078
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:10,799
Speaker 1: he only needed four targets to get sixty five yards

1079
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:15,239
Speaker 1: in a score against that Raiders defense. I honestly, I

1080
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 1: have no idea what to do with Jimmy Graham this weekend.

1081
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: I will say if if O. J. Howard does not play,

1082
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:22,800
Speaker 1: I would play Cambra over Jimmy Graham. I've had that decision.

1083
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:24,279
Speaker 1: I am right there with you, and I would play

1084
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 1: John new Smith if Delaney Walker doesn't play, also over

1085
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:29,600
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham. But we're gonna wait and see what happens

1086
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,680
Speaker 1: with those players. This could be a big time Aaron

1087
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 1: Jones game. Uh you can. You can breathe the side

1088
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 1: of relief because a couple of weeks ago, everyone who

1089
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,760
Speaker 1: had Aaron Jones, including me, started freaking out because Jamal

1090
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,799
Speaker 1: Williams got all the touches and Aaron Jones couldn't catch

1091
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,280
Speaker 1: an open pass that would have resulted in a touchdown

1092
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,800
Speaker 1: for for Aaron Rodgers. Last week we got back to normalcy.

1093
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 1: Although Williams did get in the end zone, so I

1094
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:54,960
Speaker 1: mean he does have some standalone value and this matchup

1095
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 1: is positive. So if you're in a deeper league, Williams

1096
00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:59,880
Speaker 1: could end up being one of those risk reward flexes.

1097
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 1: But Aaron Jones is certainly a guy that you're gonna start. Uh,

1098
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,080
Speaker 1: that's that's quite obvious. Moving on, let's do the Monday

1099
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,480
Speaker 1: night game here. Remember when these two teams used to

1100
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 1: be good and this was like a great a f

1101
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 1: C battle Dolphins Steelers. You know, you bring up like

1102
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:18,920
Speaker 1: the old NFL films music which we have playing in

1103
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:21,880
Speaker 1: the background here if you can't hear it, um, And

1104
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:26,279
Speaker 1: now it's like, you know, it's Mason Rudolph against if

1105
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 1: it's Patrick, although I really like Mason Rudof. This week,

1106
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 1: the Dolphins have played six games. They've given up twenty

1107
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:39,440
Speaker 1: plus fantasy points to five quarterbacks. Five. It's not good, man,

1108
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 1: it's not good. And and Mason Rudolph obviously is back

1109
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:45,920
Speaker 1: off the concussion. This week, the Steelers are here at home. Um,

1110
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:49,760
Speaker 1: this is fabs. If Juju Smith Schuster does not post

1111
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,600
Speaker 1: a solid game this week, I'm I'm going to be severely,

1112
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:56,319
Speaker 1: severely disappointed because this is just man, this is just

1113
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:59,160
Speaker 1: an amazing, amazing spot. The Dolphins have had just zero

1114
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:03,880
Speaker 1: chance at slowing down opposing opposing wide receivers. Savian Howard

1115
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:07,520
Speaker 1: has missed some time to Uh looks like he might

1116
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,359
Speaker 1: not play again this week. I mean, come on, come on,

1117
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,080
Speaker 1: it's gotta be. This has got to be the spot

1118
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:17,480
Speaker 1: for Juju. Gotta be. Um, so you're starting Juju. James

1119
00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 1: Conner should absolutely smash in this game, without question. He is.

1120
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:24,640
Speaker 1: He's a clear must start. Uh. They are going to

1121
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,759
Speaker 1: lean on him a lot. Steelers defense, I have them

1122
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:30,279
Speaker 1: ranked I think second or third. I think I think

1123
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 1: it's Patriots, Rams and then Steelers. Uh. Every every defense, Guys,

1124
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:39,959
Speaker 1: every defense that has played the Dolphins has been tied

1125
00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:43,799
Speaker 1: for ninth or better in that week. Tied for ninth

1126
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:47,680
Speaker 1: are better? So Steelers du even. Yeah, even though the

1127
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,440
Speaker 1: Steelers have really struggled this year, especially in their secondary,

1128
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,560
Speaker 1: I agree. I think this is and if you look

1129
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:54,440
Speaker 1: at them, their numbers have actually been pretty good the

1130
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:58,080
Speaker 1: last three games they've played. To the defense, Um, are

1131
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:00,799
Speaker 1: we starting any Dolphins? I think you know, if you're

1132
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:02,840
Speaker 1: in a deep league, twelve team fourteen team league. You

1133
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:04,880
Speaker 1: don't have am Mark Cooper, you don't have Michael Gallup.

1134
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:06,799
Speaker 1: Maybe you've been relying on Mark's Brown, even though he's

1135
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 1: been hurt. I think Devantae Parker and Preston Williams are

1136
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:11,719
Speaker 1: fine sleeper plays here. Parker's had a touchdown at three

1137
00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:14,520
Speaker 1: strike game he has, and you know, Ryan Fitzpatrick gives

1138
00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:16,719
Speaker 1: these guys just way more of a chance than Josh Rosen.

1139
00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:19,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I I I'm definitely disappointed that Rosen's career

1140
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,960
Speaker 1: has a Yeah, he's definitely not acquitted himself well. And

1141
00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,640
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick coming in and looking a lot more competent

1142
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:27,880
Speaker 1: moving the offense. I think that's the big thing is

1143
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,200
Speaker 1: when Ryan Fitzpatrick has been in right like at least

1144
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:33,560
Speaker 1: he's moved this offense um, and against these Steelers corners

1145
00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 1: that you know they've been a little up and down

1146
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 1: this year. I think if you need, if you're in

1147
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:38,600
Speaker 1: desperate need of a receiver play, I think both these

1148
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:41,239
Speaker 1: Parker and Williams are fine. All right. So that's your

1149
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 1: look at the Week eight slate of games. And earlier

1150
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 1: we mentioned Sunday's National tight Ends Day. Okay, well, where

1151
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: do they come up with these days, Like there's like

1152
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 1: National Cheeseburger Day. You know, there's there's there's like you know,

1153
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,800
Speaker 1: is there a committee for their coming up these Polar

1154
00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:01,719
Speaker 1: Bears Day? I mean, there's freaking day for everything. What's today?

1155
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,000
Speaker 1: Today is Sunday? YEA. Honestly, I have no idea. I

1156
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:07,200
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know what it is. But Sunday

1157
00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:10,320
Speaker 1: is National tight Ends Day. I want we gotta have

1158
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:12,279
Speaker 1: a running backs day. We gotta forgot tight ends. They

1159
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 1: got ever running back to day. So we already talked

1160
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:18,320
Speaker 1: about a few of these guys, right, if you're desperate

1161
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:19,760
Speaker 1: a tight end, and a lot of us are. And

1162
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:22,880
Speaker 1: my hand is raised in here, Cameron brad If O J.

1163
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 1: Howard doesn't play, is a really good option? John nu Smith,

1164
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,720
Speaker 1: if Delaney Walker doesn't play, is a really good option.

1165
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,560
Speaker 1: You got anybody else out there that you like? Yeah?

1166
00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:34,120
Speaker 1: I think you know. Dallas Goddard over the past couple

1167
00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:38,240
Speaker 1: of weeks has been uh as he's gotten uh back

1168
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,200
Speaker 1: healthy off the calf injury. He's seen I think eighteen targets.

1169
00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: Sackerts has twenty nine over the past month. Goddard, if

1170
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 1: you're truly desperate is a fine play. Uh, Noah Fan

1171
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,080
Speaker 1: we mentioned a little bit during the Broncos game. We'll

1172
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 1: see what the Broncos do with their pass catching tree

1173
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 1: or their target tree after Courtland Sutton. I think fan

1174
00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 1: is probably a fine desperation. Can I sell you Josh

1175
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 1: Hill against the Cardinals? Why not? I mean Jared Cooks

1176
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:02,560
Speaker 1: banged up. He's uh, I don't know if he's gonna

1177
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:04,479
Speaker 1: play this week, but we're gonna look at the Friday

1178
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,600
Speaker 1: practice reports. But he's been banged up as well. So

1179
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 1: this is we're trying to sell you, and I think

1180
00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 1: we've done a pretty good job. Cambra, John U Smith,

1181
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 1: maybe Josh Hill, maybe Dallas Goddard. Um no fan fans

1182
00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:25,760
Speaker 1: uh Foster Morrow two more for you know you're not

1183
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 1: going there. That's a little too fringy. Okay, Darren Waller

1184
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 1: is really good too. You know. Two in the Bronco

1185
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:36,200
Speaker 1: excuse me, not Broncos, but Brown's Pats game. If you're

1186
00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 1: truly desperate, both Ben Watson, I think Ricky Revenge game

1187
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 1: and Ricky seals Jones are both. That's a revenge game

1188
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:45,240
Speaker 1: for Ben Watson. It is, dude, this is the revenge

1189
00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 1: freaking week, and Watson's been around for so long, He's

1190
00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:49,360
Speaker 1: got a lot of revenge. Yeah, he's like grand Fitzpatrick. Yeah,

1191
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 1: I think Ben Watson Ricky Seals Jones. Ricky Seals Jones

1192
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:54,280
Speaker 1: was elevated to a pretty much full time role before

1193
00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:56,400
Speaker 1: the Browns went out of there by if you're just

1194
00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:59,920
Speaker 1: totally absolutely dying at tight end, um, you can may

1195
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:02,520
Speaker 1: be played one of those two guys. But obviously just

1196
00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 1: pretty much everyone outside of like the top like six

1197
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:08,600
Speaker 1: options has the same floor, and the floor is zero. Yeah,

1198
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 1: I know, right exactly. Uh So, all right, that's your

1199
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 1: look at what you can expect if you need a

1200
00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 1: sleeper tight end on National tight Ends Day, which how

1201
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:20,760
Speaker 1: do you celebrate that? Like do you just like go

1202
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 1: out and get like a Rob Gronkowski jersey and you know,

1203
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:26,440
Speaker 1: just go crazy kind of thing? Is is that what

1204
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 1: you do? I would pull an old Jimmy Graham start

1205
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 1: dunking some basketball or dunking some footballs and basketball moves.

1206
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:34,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't even I wonder what Antonio

1207
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 1: Gates is doing on National tight End to Day. Well,

1208
00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:38,960
Speaker 1: he's hopefully sitting on the sofa and enjoying his uh

1209
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:42,080
