1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: Wow, here we go, There we go.

2
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 2: Everybody.

3
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 3: It's Thursday, September twenty sixth, twenty twenty four. Welcome to

4
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 3: the NFL Fantasy Football Show where we were born in

5
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 3: the darkness. It's me your man, MG, Marcus Grant, joined

6
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 3: by Michael F. Florio and Lakwan Jones and Fellas Floria.

7
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 3: Four weeks, I guess, three plus weeks into the season.

8
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 3: How are we feeling. We've got through three weeks, we

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 3: think we know everything. Are we ready to be great

10
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 3: for the rest.

11
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 2: Of the year.

12
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 4: Well, if you asked me after week two, I would

13
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 4: have said no because a lot of my calls did

14
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 4: not work out. But Week three was a much better

15
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 4: week for me. So yeah, I mean, I'm feeling great

16
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 4: right now.

17
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 2: We know everything.

18
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 4: I didn't draft CMC one overall, which feels great right

19
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 4: now because every day it just seems like we're getting

20
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 4: a report that he's out even longer. So yeah, I'm

21
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:58,319
Speaker 4: feeling good right now.

22
00:00:58,320 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: How How are you look?

23
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 4: I know you're not a Giants fan, but your home

24
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 4: state has a game today.

25
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 5: Yes we do, and I hope everybody is enjoying the

26
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 5: pizza man, because I am homesick and one of my

27
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 5: cousins actually last week came out for the weekend and

28
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 5: he was like, man, I know you're dying, man, but

29
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 5: I know a pizza spot out here in Long Beach

30
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 5: and we went there and it was pretty good.

31
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 2: I actually was enjoying it. All right. Well, you can

32
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 2: also tell all your folks back home that we got

33
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 2: better burritos.

34
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 5: You do.

35
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 2: That's all you do.

36
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 3: We got better burritos. That's the trade off when you

37
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 3: come out here to California.

38
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 2: That's right.

39
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 3: Week four does start tonight. It is the Cowboys and

40
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 3: the Giants from MetLife Stadium.

41
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 2: We're gonna go.

42
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 3: Through our calls for the week, the top scores, the sleepers,

43
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 3: and the guys who might be riding a hot streak

44
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 3: if they can repeat from last week as well. Let's

45
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 3: start with a one quick fantasy headline that is in

46
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 3: Tampa Bay, Bucky Irving started the week by we're hearing

47
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 3: reports that he was gonna start getting more touches in

48
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 3: the Tampa Bay offense, although Todd Bowles was quick to

49
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 3: point out that he was not going to justly make

50
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: Bucky Irving that you're running back one. You're gonna split

51
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 3: time with him and Rashad White, but then midweek we're

52
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 3: getting talked that he's missing practice. So I mean, Floria,

53
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 3: I'll ask you, how concerned should we be? Should do

54
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: you have any confidence in Bucky Irving? And if he goes,

55
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 3: is he worth putting in your lineup?

56
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 4: I originally, before we knew he was like missing practice time,

57
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 4: I would have said yes, I think so. But now

58
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 4: with it being him potentially up in the air, and

59
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 4: even if he does suit up, not sure how much time,

60
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 4: how much, like if he'll get a normal workload or whatnot,

61
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 4: So I would choose to I want Bucky Irving on

62
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 4: my roster, but I would choose to wait a week

63
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 4: before getting him into the starting lineup. Now what I

64
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 4: do think this means, though, is it I had Rashad

65
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 4: White as a sit this week, but if Bucky Irving

66
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 4: is out, that pushes him. I still don't love Rashad White,

67
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 4: but it at least makes him someone that you could

68
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 4: plug into your starting lineup.

69
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 3: One other quick headline Lakwan Justin Herbert dealing with an injury.

70
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 3: He says he's planning to play this week against the

71
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 3: Kansas City Chiefs. One would you play Justin Herbert? If

72
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 3: he goes, and what does that mean for the rest

73
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 3: of the Chargers.

74
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,959
Speaker 5: I guess you feel good about the pass catchers now,

75
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 5: and I think you feel good about Lad McConkie if

76
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 5: Herbert's playing. But it's a low pass volume offense, so

77
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 5: he's not doing much out there other than handing the

78
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 5: ball off in quick little throws short to the line

79
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 5: of scrimmage. But I'm not really a fan of putting

80
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 5: Justin Herbert in my starting lineups. I feel as though,

81
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,239
Speaker 5: like you're looking for the JK. Dobbins, the Lad McConkie's,

82
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 5: the qj's, the Quinn Johnson. But it's more so of

83
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 5: like I already was like off the Justin Herbert buss

84
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 5: just based on this low volume, you know, passing offense.

85
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 5: So I wouldn't even think about putting him in.

86
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 3: I got I've got a super flex team with him,

87
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 3: and I got a real decision about whether I start

88
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 3: him this week against the Chiefs or if I maybe

89
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 3: just pivot and play like a wide snoop or something

90
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 3: Pro Bowl screw. Yeah, maybe I just play a wide

91
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 3: receiver in that spot. I have no idea. Anyways, get

92
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 3: to some of our Week four predictions here.

93
00:03:59,160 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 2: We'll start with.

94
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 3: Club's going to be the top score the non quarterback

95
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 3: top scorer here and uh Lakwan, you are going with

96
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 3: I guess the guy who's the wide receiver one in Buffalo.

97
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 5: Now, yes, we are going to the club. The shirts

98
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 5: are loud, the music's good, the Sparklers are coming. With

99
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 5: Khloe Shakir going against his Baltimore Ravens defense man. I mean,

100
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 5: Josh Allen has a perfect passer rating win targeting him.

101
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,359
Speaker 5: He's catching literally every single ball that Josh Allen's throwing

102
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 5: to him, and this defense man they're playing a ton

103
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 5: of his own coverage. And right now, Khalise Shakir is

104
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 5: a top five slot wide receiver versus his own coverage.

105
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 5: So I love the ability that he's able to separate,

106
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 5: get open and making himself available for Josh Allen because

107
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 5: literally he is the wide receiver one. He's the only

108
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 5: wide receiver currently on the roster that has over one

109
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 5: hundred yards. Sign me up for a great night at

110
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 5: the club with Klose Shakir.

111
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just it's so different because you know,

112
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 3: past year's the targets have been pretty narrowly funneled to

113
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 3: a couple of guys this year. Josh Allen is spreading

114
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 3: the ball around all over the place, a lot of

115
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: different guys getting involved, which is great for the Bills,

116
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 3: a little bit harder for us to sort of predict

117
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 3: where things are going. You got a guy Florio that

118
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 3: was in a pretty widely funneled offense, but it looks

119
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 3: like one of his teammates could be missing, So maybe

120
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 3: this helps out.

121
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 2: A little bit in Houston.

122
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think whether or not Tank Dell plays this week,

123
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 4: I think it's a week for both Tank Dell and

124
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 4: Nico Collins if Tank is able to suit up. But

125
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 4: Nico Collins is the big dog in this offense, like

126
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 4: everything runs through him. I know, uh, Steph Diggs has

127
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 4: gotten has a couple of good games too, but watching

128
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 4: this team like Nico Collins is clearly the alpha there,

129
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 4: like he is the first read. For Nico Collins, he

130
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 4: is getting all the air yards, the big plays that

131
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 4: we want for fantasy. And we have seen the Jaguars

132
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 4: not only struggle against the past this year, but they

133
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 4: have struggled on the deep ball as well, and NFL

134
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 4: Pro has this as an advantage for the Texans passing attack.

135
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 4: A pretty big one too, So yeah, I think we're

136
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 4: just seeing teams beat up on the Jags right now.

137
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 4: I think the Texans, angry Texans coming off of a loss,

138
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 4: know that this is a big get right spot for

139
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 4: them because next week we get Digs versus Allen, the

140
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 4: revenge match of all revenge matches. So I think both

141
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 4: teams are gonna want to come in that coming off

142
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 4: a win, and the Texans are gonna not hold anything

143
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 4: back against the division opponent and the Jacks and I

144
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 4: think they just punched him in the mouth and Nico

145
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 4: Collins goes off.

146
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think fish after last week, I think there's

147
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 3: a bounce back coming for the Houston Texans offense after

148
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 3: shut down by Minnesota.

149
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 2: Bounce back for sure.

150
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 3: This is kind of chalky, don't really care Sae Kwon Barkley,

151
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 3: and this is really about the matchup because the Butts

152
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 3: are okay, they're sort of middle of the road defensively,

153
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 3: but it's kind of about who's not there in Philadelphia

154
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 3: right now. AJ Brown likely out, DeVonta Smith still in

155
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 3: the concussion protocol. I'm sure they've got Dallas godd Or

156
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 3: they can throw the football too, but beyond that, not

157
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 3: a lot of places that you feel confident in on

158
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 3: a consistent basis. So I think this is a week

159
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 3: that they load Saquan up with touches, whether it's on

160
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 3: the ground through the air. I think we're gonna see

161
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 3: a lot more rpo action. We're gonna see Jalen Hurts

162
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 3: kind of running the football. But I think it's gonna

163
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 3: be all Saquon all day. He's been great so far

164
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 3: this year. Now they're gonna give him. They may give

165
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 3: him the sort of workload he had when he was

166
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 3: with the Giants, and you do that behind this offensive line.

167
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a huge, huge day for

168
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 3: Saquon Barkley in a game that I think is gonna

169
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 3: be really entertaining between Philly and Tampa Bay. This week

170
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 3: for sure, over to the Snorlax, it is our favorite

171
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 3: week for sleepers. Lakwan, I really love yours because this

172
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 3: is a guy I think it's gonna have a really

173
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 3: nice week. It's a guy also that I admit, coming

174
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 3: into the season I was wrong about.

175
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 2: So I guess consider this my apology.

176
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm on that same train, Marcus, Like we are

177
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 5: just completely wrong about Tony Poller man, and this is

178
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 5: a sleeper week for him, going up against his Dolphins

179
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 5: defense Monday Night Football. Hopefully you're not in a nail

180
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 5: bier all the way up over the weekend through Tony

181
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 5: Poler being starting lineups.

182
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: But this is a great matchup.

183
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 4: Man.

184
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 5: It really feels though you're going up against his Dolphins defense,

185
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 5: who are allow on the second most fantasy points and

186
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 5: the second most rushing touchdown to running back so far

187
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 5: this season. Man, And look, the game plan should be

188
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 5: to run the ball, get the ball ali Will Levis's

189
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 5: hands to limit these turnovers. So it should be a

190
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 5: clear understanding like, hey, we need to run the ball

191
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 5: against this Dolphins defense and Will Levis, Man, you need

192
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 5: to make better decisions because last week real nasty work

193
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 5: and that kept a lot of the time on the

194
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 5: sideline for Tony Pollard. If you're going to be throwing

195
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 5: pick sixes, et cetera, et cetera. So yeah, let's get

196
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 5: the get back for Tony Pollard this week.

197
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do like Tony Pollard.

198
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 3: I'm also like one last chance to try to make

199
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 3: Taija spears happen. But I think I think I'm ready

200
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 3: to kind of give up on that dream at this point,

201
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 3: it doesn't seem like it's happening. Don't get there, all right,

202
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 3: I'll hold on a little bit longer. We'll see for Florido.

203
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 3: Who's your out your sleeper for the week.

204
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 4: I like Justin Fields this week because we have seen

205
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 4: the Colts really get carved up on defense now three

206
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 4: weeks in a row, but they really struggle on the ground.

207
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 4: They've allowed these second most rushing yards this season, which

208
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 4: is why I like Najie Harris, but it's also why

209
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 4: I I think we get the first real vintage running

210
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 4: Justin Field's game. He had fifty four yards in Week one,

211
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 4: he had a rushing touchdown last week. Let's combine those two.

212
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 4: Let's get a season high in rushing yards for him.

213
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 4: And this might be a hot take, but I actually

214
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 4: think I would play Justin Fields over Anthony Richardson in

215
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 4: the battle of these quarterbacks this week, just because I

216
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 4: think the Steelers defense is the best in football.

217
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 3: I mean, they've been fantastic, and Richardson kind of on

218
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 3: the struggle bus, especially when it comes throwing the football

219
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 3: so far through the first three weeks of the season.

220
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 3: I'm gonna keep it with the Ohio State University, and

221
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 3: I got Jackson Smith and Jigba this week as a sleeper.

222
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 3: I think he has officially taken over as the wide

223
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,959
Speaker 3: receiver to there in Seattle. And while you got DK

224
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,079
Speaker 3: Metcalf taking the top off the defense, JSN is sort

225
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 3: of working in that nice intermediate spot right around ten

226
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 3: yards or so from the line of scrimmage. Gito Smith,

227
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 3: quite as it's kept, has been playing some really good

228
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 3: football so far this season, and it's just nice to

229
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 3: see jays In getting more targets, looking like more of

230
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 3: a part of the downfield passing game compared to where

231
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 3: he was last year under Shane Waldron. I think he

232
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 3: keeps it going in a game that could really be

233
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 3: high scoring. Historically, Seahawks Lions have been some very high

234
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 3: scoring games.

235
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 2: I think we could get that again this week.

236
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 3: And even though Detroit has really made efforts to improve

237
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 3: its secondary, I'm still some holes there, so I think

238
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 3: JSN can certainly take advantage of that. So those are

239
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 3: the guys we think are going to have some big

240
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 3: weeks this week. Those are some guys who had some

241
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 3: big weeks last week and whether or not they can

242
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 3: repeat so as jay Z once said, can I get

243
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 3: an encore who do you like this week?

244
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 2: To back it up?

245
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 5: LQ and I do want more to run it back

246
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 5: for Tuba Hubbard going up against the Bengals Man, he

247
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 5: was a top five running back last week. That is

248
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 5: amazing and that just shows that Andy Dallon at the

249
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 5: starting position just brings a new spark for this offense.

250
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 5: And look Bengals man, their defense have allowed one hundred

251
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 5: yards on the ground in each of their last three

252
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 5: games to running back, so looking at the last two weeks,

253
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 5: he's also bringing some PPR upside as well. Ten targets,

254
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 5: which is foremost among running backs in the last two weeks.

255
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 2: Are really like that.

256
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 5: He's out there running routes and going out there and

257
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 5: participating in the passing game. And he has just as

258
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 5: many explosive runs in the last couple of weeks as

259
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 5: Album Kamara, JK. Dobbins as Brian Robinson junior. So he's

260
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 5: running hard and looking good with his opportunities. So shout

261
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 5: out to that Panthers O line stepping up in that

262
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 5: run game as well, because last week the Panthers had

263
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 5: the highest rushing yards over expected, So this looks like

264
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 5: a good situation for Chewba Hubbard.

265
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 3: So you like Chewba Hubbard, Florio, you like another big

266
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 3: time receiver to have a big time week this week?

267
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, because what's it that you say about low hanging fruit.

268
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,559
Speaker 3: Look, it's just as tasty as the stuff at the

269
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 3: top of the tree. You don't have to work, is

270
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 3: hard to get it boom.

271
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 4: Dk Metcalf is that this week because DK has had

272
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,319
Speaker 4: two big games in a row. He has a very

273
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 4: healthy target share, and nearly half of the Seahawks' air

274
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 4: yards all go to DK Metcalf, so he is always

275
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 4: a big play threat. We've already seen him connect two

276
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 4: weeks in a row, and now he gets the Lions.

277
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,079
Speaker 4: The last three times that these teams have faced they

278
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 4: have scored anywhere between sixty eight and ninety points combined.

279
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 4: So it's going to be an absolute score fest. And

280
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 4: DK in those three games, one of which went for

281
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty yards, another one he scored three touchdowns.

282
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 4: The usage, the matchup, everything is primed for DK not

283
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 4: only to have a big week, he might be the

284
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 4: high I know I didn't pick him, but he might.

285
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 2: Be the top scorer of Week four this year. Clubeah.

286
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 3: You know, it's funny because you know, early in the

287
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 3: season he didn't have a couple he had a couple of,

288
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 3: you know, not so great games, and everybody's like, oh, oh,

289
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 3: are we worried about d No, No, we're not worried

290
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 3: about DK Metcalf.

291
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 4: No.

292
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 2: Fu.

293
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 5: I think Tyler Lockett's still looking for his helmet on

294
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 5: the sideline.

295
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 2: That's probably what's happening.

296
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just I've been such a Tyler Lockett

297
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 3: stand for the last couple of years. Like, you know,

298
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 3: time March is on, I came, man.

299
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 2: I mean, he had his time. Robert Woods had his time.

300
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 5: You know, those guys are the guys that you know,

301
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 5: just Bobby Trees.

302
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 2: Man, pour one out for Bobby Trees this week? Do

303
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 2: this finest? Anyway?

304
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 3: For me, it's Deontay Johnson. It finally happened, right. We

305
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 3: were all on board with Deontay Johnson. Obviously, the first

306
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 3: few weeks, the first couple of weeks were not great

307
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 3: with Bryce Young at quarterback.

308
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 2: They make change to Andy Dalton and suddenly this whole

309
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 2: offense comes to life a little bit.

310
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 3: I guess that's what happens when you have a thirteen

311
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 3: year veteran back there under center versus a guy in

312
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 3: his second year who's had to deal with some offensive

313
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,199
Speaker 3: coordinator changes and that sort of thing.

314
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 2: Whatever. Hopefully Bryce Shung works it out.

315
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 3: In the meantime, let's all continue to prosper with Deontay Johnson.

316
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 2: The Bengals showed last.

317
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 3: Week they are able or not able, but willing maybe

318
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 3: not even willing that they will give up big plays

319
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 3: they did against the Commanders. We saw Terry McLaurin get

320
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 3: behind the defense a couple of times. Don't know if

321
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 3: Deontay Johnson is going to be that kind of a

322
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,679
Speaker 3: deep threat, but I do think he can get open,

323
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,319
Speaker 3: he can get targets from Andy Dalton had a great

324
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 3: Week three. I think he's going to have a great

325
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: Week four for the Carolina Panthers and for your fantasy

326
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 3: teams as well. So should be a whole lot of fun.

327
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 3: It should be a a lot of things to work on,

328
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 3: a lot of things to watch. Will definitely keep an

329
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,440
Speaker 3: eye on them, and we'll be back, of course again

330
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 3: soon to kind of talk about what happened, and again

331
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 3: I'll get you ready for the rest.

332
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 2: Of the week as well. In the meantime.

333
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 3: That'll do it for this edition of the NFL Fantasy

334
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 3: Football Podcast, The Happy, Safe, and Healthy, do good, and

335
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 3: live well, and we will talk to you all tomorrow
