For 20 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: week six, let's start though with the quarterbacks and the 21 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,199 Speaker 1: guys that are on your start and sit list for 22 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 1: the week. Who you got on the ups and downs? 23 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, I know he's been a little up and 24 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 1: down this year. He has a great matchup. He's in play. 25 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins in a strong matchup as well. Geno Smith 26 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: has been playing great ball and he's in play. And 27 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: if you need a streamer, Daniel Jones, I think is 28 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: one in a good matchup against the Ravens. Some players 29 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: that I am sitting Matt Stafford and Russell Wilson, they've 30 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: just been struggling. Trevor Lawrence, I know we played well 31 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: against the Colts earlier, but a lot of turnovers lately. 32 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: And then Marcus Mariota, I'm just not trusting him. Well 33 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: let's go back to Gino Smith and you know, a 34 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, he went out and put up 35 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: a big number against the Detroit Lions and we all 36 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: thought that was fun, but we also thought, well it's 37 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: the Lions. Their defense is terrible. Then he went out 38 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: and had a pretty good game against the New Orleans 39 00:01:55,400 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: Saints and we all agreed. As they back, I was like, 40 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: what is that saying? He didn't write back? Uh, He's 41 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: went back and had a good game against the Northernan Saints. 42 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 1: We all agree as a much better defense. So now 43 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: we're just we're just willing to ride or die with you, 44 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: you know, the rest of the year. Right I don't 45 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: know we're ready to ride or die with him all year, 46 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 1: but I think right now you a percent should be 47 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: riding with Gino Smith. I mean, he scored over eighteen 48 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: fantasy points in three straight, he's top twenty four in 49 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: his last two, and he is one game all year 50 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: with less than seventeen Fantasy points, so he's been very consistent. 51 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: He leads the NFL and multiple passing touchdown games this year, 52 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: and then the Cardinals are eight in the league and 53 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks. This is a situation markets 54 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: where I think you can trust Gino. But it's also 55 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: because he is great playmakers around him that are going 56 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: to help him. So I think as long as you 57 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,399 Speaker 1: trust Tyler Lockett and DK Metcal to keep doing their 58 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: their thing, you could keep trusting Geno Smith and starting 59 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 1: him in fantasy. It is a really narrowly funneled passing game. 60 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: It's what we love. I mean, right how Tyler Lockett 61 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: is the wide receiver eight, DK metcalf is the wide 62 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: receiver nineteen and Gino Smith a top six fantasy quarterback 63 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: hitting into Week six. They wrote me off a right 64 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 1: back right and right back, don't right back, Gino don't 65 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: right back. And the guy on the other side of 66 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: this game, Kyler Murray, is the QB five and he's 67 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: averaging about twenty fantasy points per game. It's a little 68 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: bit of a head scratcher just because the Cardinals offense 69 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: is really yet to take flight. But if there's any 70 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: ever a week for Kyler to really have a smash game, 71 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: it's against a bad Seahawks defense. Yeah, and I know 72 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: Kyler has been up and down, but like you said, Margarets, 73 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: he's a QB five averaging twenty fantasy points per game 74 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: and people are still worried about him. I guess it 75 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: says how high the expectations are for him. But in 76 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: his two games this year where he failed to top 77 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: twenty points, one was against the Rams defense that has 78 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: historically given him trouble throughout his career, and then the 79 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: other was against the Eagles. Those are two of the 80 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: top defenses I think in the NFL. And then no 81 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: offense to the Seattle their their defense is not like that. 82 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: Kyler has a history of success against them. He threw 83 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: multiple scores in two of his last three games against Seattle. 84 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: I think that this could be low key, markets be 85 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: a kind of high scoring game, and Kyler, I think 86 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: is is a very safe start this week. I don't 87 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: even know if it's low key high scoring game. I 88 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: think it's straight up gonna be a high scoring game 89 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: because both of these defenses are pretty bad, so I'm 90 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: expecting a lot of points in this one. Russell Wilson, 91 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: it has been a struggle for him so far this season, 92 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: not what anybody expected after he went to Denver and 93 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: got the bag out there. It has been to the 94 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: point that now people asking if they can drop Russell Wilson. 95 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: But certainly if you're holding onto him, it's hard to 96 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: It's hard to trust starting him at any point right now. Yeah, 97 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: I think Russell Wilson has to be sat until we 98 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: see better days. Uh. Single digits and he scored single 99 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: digits last week and now has two of his last 100 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: three games with single digit Fantasy points eleven or fewer 101 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: and three of his last four. He just underwent a 102 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: shoulder in action that gives some hope. I think for 103 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: the future that maybe he could start to play better. 104 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: But until we see him actually put up numbers and 105 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: get on the same page one in this offense and 106 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: two with his playmakers around him, I don't see how 107 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: you could start him. I'm okay holding on to him 108 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: and benching him for now, but I cannot get him 109 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: in my starting lineup. Interesting point because so many of 110 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks that we thought would be good haven't been good. 111 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: The quarterback waiver wire is a little bit thinner right 112 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: now because you've got teams that are just holding onto 113 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: multiple quarterbacks hoping they can figure out the right time 114 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: to start guys. So you're right, Russell Wilson. It's hard 115 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: to throw him back into the free agent pool, but 116 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: it's also really really hard to start him right now. 117 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: Let's pivot to the wide receivers. Take a look at 118 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: some of your past catchers four weeks six. Who are 119 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: your starts and sits for this prep this particular position. 120 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: I'm riding again with Chris Godwin after last week's so 121 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,679 Speaker 1: so performance. Gabe Davis I think is very much in play. 122 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett. We like Gino. I like his receivers as well, 123 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna ride with George Pikins. I believe in 124 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: the rookie There some sins d J. Moore just because 125 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: it's been so bad so far this season, Juju. I 126 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 1: think is a sit in a tough matchup, and then 127 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: some rookies who started off really hot, Garrett Wilson and 128 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: Drake London. It pains me, but I think there're since 129 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, I think we just gotta pivot away 130 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: from Drake London for the time being until we figure 131 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: out what Arthur Smith is doing with that offense. Back 132 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: to Chris Godwin. Last week, you were on Gabe Davis 133 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: against the Steelers and he had a monster game against Pittsburgh. 134 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: This week, it's the Bucks that get to take aim 135 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: at that Steelers defense, and Chris Godwin is starting to 136 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: get healthy. There's a whole lot of weapons there for 137 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: Tom Brady to work with. But I think we're still 138 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: waiting for the big, huge smash game from Chris Godwin. 139 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: This feels like it could be the one. That's exactly it. 140 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: Marcus twelve Fantasy points and his two straight games, so 141 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,799 Speaker 1: that that's showing that he brings a pretty safe floor. 142 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: He's going to be involved in this offense, but we 143 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: know there's more upside, and last week he didn't play 144 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 1: much in the second half, largely because the Bucks had 145 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: a three touchdown lead for most of it. But I 146 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: think this is a week where we could see a 147 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: lot of Chris Godwin. The Steelers allow the most fantasy 148 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: points to water receivers. We just saw Gabe Davis towards them, 149 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: and all the Bills receivers really have a good game, 150 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: So I think Godwin this could be the week he 151 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: looks like his old self. Yeah, Chris Godwin. You mentioned 152 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: he didn't play much in the second half. That felt 153 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: like them just sort of resting him as he continues 154 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: to get stronger and get healthier. So I don't know 155 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: that maybe it happens again this week, but I think 156 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: if it happens, it's also because you saw the Bucks 157 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: have a really big first half and hopefully Godwin is 158 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: a part of that. The game of the week on 159 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: paper is the Bills at the Chiefs, and the Chiefs 160 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: are playing good football, they are winning games right now, 161 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: but for fantasy it pretty much is just the Patrick 162 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: Mahomes and Travis Kelsey show, and so for that reason, 163 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: at least I assume that's the reason that you were 164 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: pivoting away from Juju smith Schuster right now. Yeah, the 165 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: production just hasn't been there for Juju Smith Schuster. And 166 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: I've been seeing the quote from Matching Mahomes going before 167 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: the season where he's like every week is going to 168 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: be a different receiver going around a lot on social media, 169 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: and that's not really the case. It's it's Travis Kelsey 170 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: every week. Uh. Juju Smith Schuster has eight targets in 171 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: four of his five games this season, yet he's been 172 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: held to single digits three times, and he's not reached 173 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: more than fourteen fantasy points in a game this season. 174 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: With eight targets per game, at some point, it's not 175 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: just he's spreading the ball around. It's like Juju just 176 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: isn't that productive anymore. So I think that right now 177 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: it's it's Mahomes, Kelsey and cch are the starters from 178 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: the Chiefs for fantasy Any thought too, maybe m VS 179 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: in a game that could be a score fast, not 180 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: as you know, anything more than a deep lea option, 181 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: but would you consider him? I think in deeper leagues 182 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: he's certainly in play. And I like MPs for daily 183 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: purposes because we haven't seen him get that long ball yet, 184 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: but we know he's capable of doing that. Yeah, he's 185 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: definitely the field stretcher there. It's just a matter of 186 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: when and where Mahomes can hit him. Let's move on 187 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: to this week's edition of How We Feeling. It's where 188 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: we list some guys and we talked about, well, how 189 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: we're feeling about them. So let's start with Justin Herbert 190 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: going against a good Broncos defense on Monday Night Football. 191 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: How are you feeling about him? I know he hasn't 192 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: been the Justin Herbert of old or that we expected 193 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: this year. We all thought he would be like m 194 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: par at least I did with Josh Allen and Mahomes, 195 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: and that hasn't been the case. But I still think 196 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: there's far too much upside in in Justin fields. I know, 197 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: in his last three games only one has multiple touchdowns, 198 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 1: but I think that's gonna get better. Alstin Ekeler has 199 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 1: been running all over teams the last two weeks. I'm 200 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: not sure he's gonna be able to run like that 201 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 1: on Denver. I still think you rod with Justin Herbert. Yeah, 202 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, I think, you know, it's not a great matchup, 203 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: but I still love his upside there for me. J K. 204 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: Dobbins going into the New York Giants, and I don't 205 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: know if I love the matchup. The Giants are finding 206 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: ways to win games in part because their defense is 207 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: coming up big when they need him to. But I 208 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: do like Dobbins in the sense of there's gonna be 209 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: volume there for him. There really is no competition in 210 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: the Baltimore backfields aside for maybe you know, Lamar Jackson, 211 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: who's going to run the football. But in terms of 212 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: actual running back snaps, it's pretty much the J. K. 213 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: Dobbins show. So in that respect, I do like the 214 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: volume of it. The matchup is so so, but I 215 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: do think depending on your situation, he's he is in 216 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: play at least as a running back to this week, 217 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: Florida James Robinson has sort of fallen off the last 218 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. How are you feeling about him against Indianapolis. 219 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: I'm worried about James Robinson right now. Two weeks ago 220 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: we saw him in et N really split, and I 221 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: thought that was because it was in bad weather and 222 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: they were being cautious with James Robinson, and then last 223 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: week in a fine weather game, it was E. T 224 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: N who played more snaps, say, the same number of 225 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: carries E t N and more targets and did a 226 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: lot more damage with it. I'm starting to think this 227 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: is a split something like that moving forward, maybe even 228 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: seeing more E. T N. I think right now both 229 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: are more just RB two or flex plays that bring 230 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: me a certain floor, but but a high ceiling. Over 231 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: to Jamaar Chase and the Bengals heading down to New Orleans, 232 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: and I like Jamaar Chase. I know people are wanting 233 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: more from him, and it hasn't really happened, but I 234 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: do think we're gonna see him get more involved. If 235 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: for no other reason, it's Joe Burrow and Jamaar Ches 236 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: coming back to the state of Louisiana where they were 237 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: stars in college, where they won a national championship. If 238 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: there's ever a chance for them to show out, it 239 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 1: is this week against the New Orleans Saints. I do 240 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: like them trying to get the ball to Chase a 241 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: little bit more. Now. I'd like for some of the 242 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: big plays to happen. We haven't seen a lot of those, 243 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: but I have a feeling that this is the week 244 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna see Jamar Chase get going either way, it's 245 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: hard to make a case to not have him in 246 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: your lineup, So you're starting Jamar Chase anyway. Let's just 247 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: hope that the big plays come. Christian Kirk, it's been 248 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: a while since we've seen a couple of big plays 249 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: from him. He's got the Colts as well this week. 250 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: How you feeling I would still be starting Christian Kirk 251 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: and we two against the Colts. He caught all six 252 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: of his targets for seventy eight yards and two touchdowns. 253 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: I know he's coming off of two down games, but 254 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 1: two weeks ago he still had nine targets. Last week's 255 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: three targets are concerning, but I think his two bad 256 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: games correlate with Trevor Lawrence's worst games of the season, 257 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: where he's been turning seven turnovers in the last two games. 258 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: It's gonna be hard to get a lot of production, 259 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: so we need Trevor Lawrence to play better. But I 260 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: still think you ride with Christian Kirk. I definitely think 261 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 1: you right with Christian Kirk because he seems to be 262 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: the favorite target there in Jacksonville. Finally, Kyle Pitts and 263 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: the Falcons taking on the forty Niners. Now this is 264 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: assuming Pits plays. He did practice on Wednesday, miss last 265 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: week with a hamstring injury. I'm trying to keep the 266 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: faith man, but Arthur Smith is making it hard right 267 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: now just the way they are using him. They're not 268 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: having him on the field for all of their passing plays. 269 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: He's not running as many routes as you would like, 270 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 1: and when he is out there is not really seeming 271 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: to get the targets. Last week we saw that extend 272 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: to Drake London as well, throwing the fact that they've 273 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: got a really good defense that they're facing this week 274 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 1: in San Francisco. And I don't I don't know. I 275 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: will say this, Look, there's not a lot of guys 276 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 1: that you feel really confident about it tied end outside 277 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: of Kelsey and Andrews. So maybe for that reason Kyle 278 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: Pitts stays in your lineup, but it's not it's not 279 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: encouraging what we've seen through the first five weeks of 280 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: the season. I don't know, have you have you lost 281 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: the faith in Kyle Pitts. I I still believe in 282 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts. I'm losing a lot of faith in Arthur 283 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: Smith to do the right thing and get the ball 284 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: into the hands of the best playmaker. And I feel 285 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: bad for anyone out there who has to decide between 286 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts and and Taysom Hill this week that that 287 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: feels like a very tough decision. That's a very tough decision. 288 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: And I'm sure there are more than there's more than 289 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: one person out there who has that decision to make 290 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: this week start sit tight ends four weeks six Floria 291 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 1: run them down for me. David and Joeku, who I 292 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 1: think needs to be viewed as one of the upper 293 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: echelont tight ends is in play. Taysom Hill just because 294 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 1: no one brings a higher ceiling outside of maybe like 295 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey at the position. Evan Ingram in a great 296 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: matchup coming off his best game of the year. And 297 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: then Noah Bet who is more used I like him 298 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: over Will Disley this week. Actually uh and my sis 299 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz who just has got no production with Cooper 300 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 1: Rush Tyler Conklin, same thing for him with Zach Wilson. 301 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: Mo Ali Cox disappeared after this big game. A couple 302 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, and then Hunter Henry just because I 303 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: don't trust anyone in the Patriots game. Now, the Patriots 304 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: offense is not trustworthy at this point. But Taysom Hill, 305 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: I mean talking about sort of not trustworthy. The floor 306 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: is really really low. The ceiling potentially is really really high. 307 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: The same thing. They want to get him more involved 308 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: this week, So we talked about this on the podcast. 309 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: When you're streaming tight ends, it feels like you could 310 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: probably do worse than Taysom Hill. Yeah. The only way 311 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: I would not consider starting Taysom Hill is if I 312 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: have Like obviously, if you have Kittle on that Kiddle 313 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: Kelsey or Andrews, you can put Kittle in that mix, 314 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: got or in Joko. It has to be a proven 315 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: weekly contributor at the tight end position, because when you're 316 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: talking about streaming tight ends, none of them bring a 317 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: safe floor. They're all a risk of giving you zero 318 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: or close to zero, but none of them have the 319 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: ceiling of a Taysom Hill. I mean, last week, the 320 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: only people who scored more Fantasy points than him and 321 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: all of the game was Josh Allen, Austin Ekeler, and 322 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: Leonard four Nette. Like that is an elite company to 323 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: be in. It's such a high ceiling. So if you're 324 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: streaming tight ends, it's almost worth it to just ride 325 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: with Taysom Hill and see if he can score touchdown 326 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: or hit on his upside like he did last week. 327 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: That's the thing, Although be aware that the range of 328 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: outcomes does include zero points from Taysom Hill. Where is 329 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: the ultimate mystery box? He really is? He really is. Also, 330 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: just because he's in the stardom category, don't say, hey, 331 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: I started Taysom Hill over David and Joku, Like, don't 332 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: do that. That's that's not wise. Evan Ingram a name 333 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: that I thought we were sort of done with Evan 334 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: Ingram in our fantasy lives. He's gone to Jacksonville and look, 335 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: he's not spectacular, but he is I think, hanging around 336 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: the top fifteen of tight ends and had a good 337 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: game against the Colts earlier this season. I guess you 338 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: believe he can do it again this week. Yeah, it's 339 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: two fold, it's or three fold. I should say. The 340 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: biggest thing is he's a tight end, so that always 341 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: comes into play. Uh, and then last week ten targets, 342 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: six catches, sixty nine yards, his best game as a Jaguar, 343 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: so you love to see that. And then, like you said, 344 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: he played well against the Colts earlier this season where 345 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: he had eight targets. Is his only other game with 346 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: at least eight targets besides last week. Uh, he caught 347 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: seven balls for forty six yards against the Colts. That's 348 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: double digit fantasy points. And then the Colts have allowed 349 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: the fifth most fantasy points to the tight end position. 350 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: So I know Evan Ingram he can bottom out any 351 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: streaming tight end again, can do that. But there's a 352 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: lot of reasons for optimism when it comes to Evan Ingram. 353 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: This week, Evan Ingram back in Our Lives, I really 354 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: thought it was it was a rap for him. You 355 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: got let go by the Giants, and it felt like, Okay, 356 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: well this is the last we heard of him. But 357 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: a little bit of a resurrection down in Jacksonville. Let's 358 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: talk about some players we think deserve a little bit 359 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: more hype and our must starts this week. Kick it off. 360 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: Floria Travis E t N Jr. And I said earlier 361 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: in the show that I was worried about James Robinson, 362 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: and the whole reason is E t N. He's been 363 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: playing more snaps the last two weeks. Last week day 364 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: the same number of carries E t N and more targets, 365 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: and he had way more yards. He's just the more 366 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: explosive option, and I wouldn't be surprised if moving forward 367 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: we see a lot more of E t N. Between 368 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: the twenties. James Robinson could be the guy that comes 369 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: in cleans it up. I still don't think Robinson ever 370 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: fully goes away, but we might be seeing the emergence 371 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: and the takeover here of Travis E t N. I 372 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: actually I don't know if this is crazy or not. 373 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: Marcus I think I feel better about him this week 374 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 1: than I do James Robinson. Wow, that is definitely saying something. 375 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: I was always hoping that this could be sort of 376 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: a version of what Cleveland does with Nick Chubb and 377 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt. I don't know if it's quite gotten there, 378 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,199 Speaker 1: but I do think both these guys are viable. I'm 379 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 1: gonna go with Zach Ertz going against the Seattle Seahawks 380 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 1: just because one the Seahawks defense is bad, but also 381 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: this is the last week for the Cardinals without DeAndre Hopkins, 382 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 1: so I think this is the last week where you 383 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: can look at a lot of these guys and see 384 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: that there's a big time target share coming Earth's. I 385 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: think always will get some opportunities there in that Arizona offense, 386 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: but I definitely think this is a week to get 387 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 1: him involved. The Seahawks are bad defensively against pretty much 388 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 1: every position, but tight end especially bad. So this feels 389 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: like a good zach ERT's week to get him in 390 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: your lineup. So you said you're sitting Russell Wilson, but 391 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: you do still sort of like one of his receivers 392 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: this week. Huh Yeah, And I know last week people 393 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: were like, how are you telling me to sit Gino 394 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: and start DK Metcalf And it's like, well, a receiver 395 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: could play well even if and I was wrong on Gino, 396 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: but like a receiver can play well even if the 397 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 1: quarterback does it. And that's what Courtland Sutton has done. 398 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: Despite Russell Wilson playing as poorly as he has. Courtland 399 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: Sutton is the wide receiver twelve on the year with 400 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 1: just one touchdown two so he's been very productive at 401 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: least eleven Fantasy points every game, and he has over 402 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: sixteen and three of his last four, so he's getting 403 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: the job done, and and this with Russell Wilson playing 404 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: pretty poor football, we think I would admit the ceiling 405 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: is much higher and I'll take the l on him. 406 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 1: You were very high on him, Marcus. I know the 407 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: fantasy community was very high on him. I was like, 408 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: I think this is gonna be back and forth between 409 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: him and Jerry Judy, But Courtland Sutton has separated himself 410 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: from the pack. Judy has been a non factor for 411 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: much of the season. I didn't think there'd be this 412 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: much separation between the two of them. But Sutton does 413 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: look like the guy if there is one in Denver, 414 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: the last one here, and I'm gonna go with Kirk 415 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 1: Cousins against the Miami Dolphins, and Cousins has been He's 416 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: been Kirk Cousins. I mean, sometimes it looks good, sometimes 417 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: it doesn't, and that can happen within the course of 418 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: the same game. But right now he is the QB 419 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: twelve and this is a very good matchup that Dolphins 420 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: have struggled against opposing fantasy quarterbacks and Cousins, coming off 421 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: his best fantasy game of the season, going for two 422 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: and a touchdown, also ran for a score last week 423 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: against the Chicago Bears. So if you are having quarterback issues, 424 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: if you are trying to decide between you know, say 425 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson or somebody like that, I think Kirk Cousins 426 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: can be your guy. Obviously, you're not streaming him because 427 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 1: he's probably on somebody's roster, but if you got him, 428 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: this feels like a pretty good week to start Kirk Cousins. 429 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: Coming up next, we are talking about the running back position. 430 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 1: Find out which top ten pick Florio says needs to 431 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 1: be on your bench this weekend.

You get behind 433 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: the velvet ropes and he's gonna score you twenty five points. 434 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 1: Coming up this week, we'll let you know on the 435 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: Stardom Sam Show.

Start sit running backs 443 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: four weeks six. Who we got I said earlier, I 444 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: don't trust anyone in the Patriots passing game, but I'm 445 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: still trusting Ramandre Stevenson there. I think Melvin Gordon in 446 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: a great matchup is in play. Devin Singletary against the Chiefs, 447 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 1: who have allowed a ton of pass production to running backs. 448 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker. It's been Kenneth Walker week all week on 449 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: Fantasy Twitter. I think you start him in my Sits 450 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 1: a lot of big names this week, Zeke Elliott, I 451 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: think it's a sit against a tough matchup A j 452 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,439 Speaker 1: Dillon against the Jets, cam Acres against the Panthers, and 453 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: then the big one, Nag Harris against the Tampa Bay Bucks. 454 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: I think he's a sit this week. We'll get to 455 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: that one in just a second, but let's start with 456 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 1: Ramandre Stevenson because we liked him anyway. We liked the 457 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: opportunity he was getting in the passing game. Now, no 458 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 1: Damian Harris for it looks like at least a couple 459 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 1: of weeks he's got a good matchup against a bad 460 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns run defense. I know you said earlier in 461 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: the week you were putting him, saying your top twelve. 462 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: Have you moved him up? I know you, I know, 463 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:59,360 Speaker 1: look like full disclosure. Uh you know the rankings has 464 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: been sort of ended off. You've kind of passed the 465 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 1: torch to somebody else. But if you were still doing rankings, 466 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 1: would remindre make it into your top ten this week? 467 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: He'd be borderline. I think he is someone that I 468 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 1: would strongly consider there. He might be just outside of it, 469 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: but I definitely think he has the upside to finish 470 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: their last week five carries for a buck sixty one 471 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: and then he added fourteen yards in the air. And 472 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: the thing is, I think they're gonna ride him heavy 473 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: on the ground, especially with their third string quarterback Zappy 474 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 1: in there. But even if they fall behind, he already 475 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: has been handling the passwort duty for the running backs there, 476 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: so I don't think he ever fully would go away. 477 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: The Browns have allowed the fourth most fantasy points to 478 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: running backs. He is a lea. Garrett blont Jr. Is 479 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: a beast, and shout out to Joel Smith. Go give 480 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: him a follow on Twitter. He's the one doing the 481 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: rankings now, so you definitely want to follow him, that's right, 482 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: So you get to yell at someone else, not Floria. 483 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: Anymore about the rankings, Go follow Joel Joel does good 484 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: work and give him a shout over there on Twitter. 485 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker. You mentioned it's been Kenneth Walker week on 486 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: Fantasy Twitter. I mean for the moment we learned that 487 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: unfortunately Rashott Penny was gone for the rest of the 488 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 1: year with a broken fibula. Everybody has been big on 489 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker and maybe no better matchup for him to 490 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: start with than the Arizona Cardinals. This is very much 491 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: a smash spot for Walker. Yeah, Kenneth Walker won is 492 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: just a really good running back. He's third this year 493 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: in our yards per carry it over six he led 494 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: all running backs last season. And explosive runs which are 495 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: ten plus yards and in miss tackles force like those 496 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: are all the reasons we were so excited about Javonte 497 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: Williams the last two seasons, and it applies to Kenneth 498 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: Walker as well. And then, like you said, the Cardinals 499 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: they kind of defense that have given up a lot 500 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 1: of points this this season, and the Seahawks offense they're 501 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: passing him especially being better than expected. I think just 502 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,640 Speaker 1: le creates more running lanes and it leads to less 503 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: fewer stack boxes for Kenneth Walker. So we'll see Keneth 504 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: Walker get his opportunity, and he is going to be 505 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: here for the remainder of the season, barring injury, because 506 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 1: we know that Roshade Penny is not coming back. All right, 507 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: Let's get to the big one, Nagy Harris, who has 508 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: been one of the bigger disappointments across fantasy football so 509 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: far this season. This is a guy that was probably drafted, 510 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: was definitely drafted in the first round, might have been 511 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: drafted even in the first half of the first round, 512 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: and so far not even a top five running back. 513 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: You don't like him this week? Obviously, it's a tough matchup, 514 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: but you are. You're pulling the shoot on Nagi Harris. 515 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: Huh yeah, it's just so I'll preference it by saying 516 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: like he's not a must sit. It depends, but you 517 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: could have better options on your roster easily right now. 518 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: So I definitely don't think he's a must start or 519 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: anything like that either, and go to check out the 520 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: Startum Sindham column. I wrote more about Naji Harris this 521 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: week than I did any player this season, because I 522 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: really tried to dig into what's going on, and what 523 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: I found is one, he's not being targeted nearly as much, 524 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: and that was a concern coming into the year. But 525 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 1: his explosiveness on the ground and his big playability is gone. 526 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: And I'm like, maybe this has to do with the 527 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: fact that we thought he was gonna miss a bunch 528 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: of time due to a high ankle spring a couple 529 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, But it's really sat Nagy Harris of 530 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: all of his breakout ability. And then the Bucks have 531 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: allowed the fewest fantasy points to running backs, and this 532 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: is something they've done for years now, so it's the 533 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 1: toughest possible matchup for a running back. Throwing the fact 534 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: that Mike Tomlin says they want to work Jalen Warren 535 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 1: and maybe a little bit more, that means potentially fewer 536 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: snaps and fewer opportunities for Nagy Harris. Yeah, that one 537 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: not working out the way a lot of people anticipated 538 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: when they spent a high draft pick on Nagy Harris. 539 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: That's the down. Let's get back to the good side 540 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: of things, club, right the airhorns, the shouting, all of that, 541 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: the acts, body spray, get all of it right now, 542 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: because we're talking about the guys. That's right, we got 543 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: our money guns here. We're talking about the guys that 544 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: are guaranteed to score you twenty five Fantasy points this week. 545 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: Who is getting in the club for you. We're going 546 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: out to New York. We know that the clubs stay 547 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: open late there. We're gonna have a great time because 548 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: who invited us? Mr Breefe Hall. Get me in your 549 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: arning lineup this week. I'm going to have an absolutely 550 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: great game. And we've been seeing the emergence of Breeze 551 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: Hall the last couple of weeks, and last week I 552 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: think was the full takeover. He had a season high 553 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,199 Speaker 1: and carries at eighteen. He played his most snaps of 554 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 1: the year. He only had two targets, but he turned 555 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: them into a hundred yards. He went for almost two 556 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: hundred yards and a touchdown, and he twice was tackled 557 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 1: at the one on big plays. And I think against 558 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 1: the Packers defense, and really against Aaron Rodgers, the Jets 559 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 1: are gonna try to keep Rogers off the field and 560 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 1: run Breeze Hall a bunch. I think Breeze Hall is 561 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: an RB one moving forward, and you might not you 562 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: might be able to acquire him this week and not 563 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: have to pay RB one prices. That's the thing is 564 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: that he really has stepped up. And Michael Carter, who's 565 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: a good player, just I think it's gonna start to 566 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,920 Speaker 1: see fewer opportunities because Hall is playing so well. As 567 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 1: for me, when you go visit the city of Atlanta, 568 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: the club scene is always popping down there, and so 569 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 1: Deevo Samuel. He's visiting Atlanta and he is gonna get 570 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: into club up against the Falcons. It has been the 571 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: DeVos show in San Francisco pretty much all season long. 572 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 1: That's not a surprise. We knew he was gonna get 573 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: lots of opportunity. Now he has a great matchup against 574 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: the Falcons. And Adam Rink made the point that sure, 575 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: you can go and try to start Tevin Coleman, but 576 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 1: he's not the RB two in San Francisco behind Jeff Wilson. 577 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 1: It's probably Deebo Samuel. He's gonna get a ton of 578 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: those carries. We know he's gonna get some targets and 579 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: just get him out in space and let him work. 580 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: I think this is a good week to start and 581 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: to stream. Jimmy Garoppolo and I think this is an 582 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,239 Speaker 1: excellent week to start Deebo Samuel and have him in 583 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: club dub for you. There is fil is a pretty 584 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: pretty productive club dub session today. It's always a good 585 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: time and it is the funnest time of the week, 586 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: except for the part where after I got to pick 587 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 1: up all these dollar bills that are all over my 588 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: my little worst session here. But other than that's the 589 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: unfun part. That's the unfun part. Absolutely. What is fun 590 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: is the fact that we got podcasts for you five 591 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: days a week.
