0:00:00.800 --> 0:00:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Hello everybody, Welcome into the Fantasy Pros Football Podcast. I'm

0:00:04.040 --> 0:00:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Warmley, joined on this Thursday Morning, Boxing Day by

0:00:07.920 --> 0:00:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Andrew Rickson and Pat fitz Morris Fellas. Merry Christmas, Happy

0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:15.600
<v Speaker 1>holidays to everybody listening and watching. Merry Christmas, Happy holidays.

0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Happy if you don't celebrate that, just time with families

0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:21.640
<v Speaker 1>or happy Fantasy Championship week, whatever it is, We've got

0:00:21.680 --> 0:00:24.480
<v Speaker 1>something to celebrate. If you're watching this show, fits, how

0:00:24.560 --> 0:00:25.920
<v Speaker 1>is your time with the family this week?

0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 2>It's a really good worm a lot of family and

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 2>a lot of food. Too much food. I feel like

0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:33.760
<v Speaker 2>I've been feasting for the last week and really need

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:38.760
<v Speaker 2>to introduce reintroduce fruit into my diet. And really the

0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:41.519
<v Speaker 2>only fruit I've been consuming the last week has been

0:00:41.520 --> 0:00:44.639
<v Speaker 2>in the form of red wine. So yeah, I need

0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:46.840
<v Speaker 2>to eat some pineapple or something.

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:50.559
<v Speaker 1>That doesn't surprise me in the slightest I believe one

0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:52.760
<v Speaker 1>year your fantasy baseball team in the Work League was

0:00:52.840 --> 0:00:57.480
<v Speaker 1>wins above replacement, so that is no surprise to hear there.

0:00:57.640 --> 0:00:58.560
<v Speaker 1>Ericson how about you?

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:02.560
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, Well, lots of good, good drinks, good food,

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:06.000
<v Speaker 3>and a couple good fantasy decisions again on my way

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 3>to my Christmas Day party, and I forgot that I

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.679
<v Speaker 3>didn't set my lineup for the Wednesday matchups. And I

0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:14.360
<v Speaker 3>have James Connor, he's banged out, but I'm like, I

0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:15.959
<v Speaker 3>don't know if I could trust him. I have Xavier

0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.760
<v Speaker 3>Worthy on the bench, So I'm driving. I get the

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:20.560
<v Speaker 3>wife on my phone, right, Hey, we got to update

0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:22.399
<v Speaker 3>this lineup here. So it takes us like fifteen minutes

0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 3>to get through it, but eventually we get my homes

0:01:24.560 --> 0:01:26.319
<v Speaker 3>in the line, we get Worthy of the lineup, and

0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:28.600
<v Speaker 3>then I pull in a little bit after one o'clock

0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:32.959
<v Speaker 3>check my phone. Touchdown Xavier Worthy. So absolutely felt great.

0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:35.440
<v Speaker 3>And that's in my championship league. So off to a

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:37.640
<v Speaker 3>good start and looking to kind of come home with

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:39.080
<v Speaker 3>the ship come Monday night.

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that is a great way to kick things off

0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:44.800
<v Speaker 1>when you have that early, like extra early Wednesday game. Obviously,

0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:46.920
<v Speaker 1>starting strong just puts you in a good mood for

0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:50.120
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the weekend and the rest of the slate. Fits.

0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>How are your title kind of set up looking, I've

0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:56.760
<v Speaker 1>got three kind of relevant games going on still, two championships,

0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:59.760
<v Speaker 1>one third place game that does have money on the line.

0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 1>What's your you know, how spread art are you? Obviously

0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:06.600
<v Speaker 1>whittled down throughout the course of the season from twenty

0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 1>leagues to ten to you know, what are you at now?

0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:13.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? So I've got three championship games in redraft leagues,

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:19.160
<v Speaker 2>two industry leagues, and one home league, and I think

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm ranging from a slight to a heavy favorite in

0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:25.480
<v Speaker 2>all of them right now. But the main one, in

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.440
<v Speaker 2>the one I want to win most is this home league.

0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:30.720
<v Speaker 2>And I was going against Lamar Jackson and Zay Flowers,

0:02:30.760 --> 0:02:34.160
<v Speaker 2>and I feel very fortunate that the Texans weren't able

0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:37.200
<v Speaker 2>to mount anything at all on offense whatsoever, and it

0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:41.200
<v Speaker 2>kind of kept Lamar from going absolutely nuclear. He put

0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:43.400
<v Speaker 2>up a big point total, but like it could have

0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:46.160
<v Speaker 2>been so much more, and you know, Zay Flowers, like

0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 2>he had I think thirty one yards on the first

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.239
<v Speaker 2>drive and then didn't catch another pass simply because he

0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 2>didn't need to. I mean, the Ravens were getting whatever

0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 2>they wanted with Lamar and Derrick Henry, so there was

0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:01.200
<v Speaker 2>really no point to get Zay Flowers involved, fortunately for me.

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm facing our pal and colleague Mike Mayer in

0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:09.320
<v Speaker 1>the title game of our work Dynasty League, and he

0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:12.920
<v Speaker 1>had Mahomes, so that was not a fun start to watch,

0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:15.040
<v Speaker 1>But he also had to Jay Flowers, so kind of

0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:17.200
<v Speaker 1>evened out a bit there. We'll see how the rest

0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:20.600
<v Speaker 1>of the week goes. All right, guys, this is our

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Thursday show. We're talking starts, we're talking sits. We're talking

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.040
<v Speaker 1>guys that we may be added on waivers if you're

0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:28.880
<v Speaker 1>willing to start or sit them in the Fantasy Championship

0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:31.440
<v Speaker 1>and then we'll wrap up with touchdown calls as always.

0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:33.480
<v Speaker 1>As a reminder, I've been reminding you all season, but

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.640
<v Speaker 1>now more than ever if you're checking the rankings, all

0:03:36.640 --> 0:03:39.400
<v Speaker 1>of our weekly consensus rankings and tiers can be found

0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 1>at fantasypros dot com slash rankings. Hopefully those can help

0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:45.520
<v Speaker 1>bring home a fantasy title. Hopefully we can help you,

0:03:45.520 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 1>guys bring home a fantasy title. This week, we'll start

0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:52.120
<v Speaker 1>the waiver wire ads as usual, not a ton of options. Also,

0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:55.120
<v Speaker 1>if you're playing in the Fantasy Championship game, you're probably

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 1>not relying on waiver pickups at this point anyway, so

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:00.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of a streamline. Look here, the one guy I

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 1>did want to bring up, and this is health depending.

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.440
<v Speaker 1>It's Trey Benson. He was the consensus number one pick

0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:08.760
<v Speaker 1>up on our staff you know Waiver Wire rankings and

0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>the great article that Fits works on every week with

0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:14.600
<v Speaker 1>Debro and bau McBrayer. Trey Benson was kind of the

0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:16.680
<v Speaker 1>number one guy. Clearly, Again, this is going to be

0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:20.000
<v Speaker 1>dependent both on his health practicing in a limited capacity

0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 1>on Wednesday of this week, and also James Connor's health obviously,

0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:26.960
<v Speaker 1>So clearly, if either those health goes in the wrong direction,

0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:29.720
<v Speaker 1>you're not playing him. In a scenario where Trey Benson

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:32.240
<v Speaker 1>is the starter and James Connor is not playing in

0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:35.760
<v Speaker 1>this game, fits, how interested are you in starting Trey Benson?

0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:39.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean if Connor is out and Benson does play,

0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 2>and obviously people are going to have to monitor this

0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 2>because both guys were limited on Wednesday. I don't know

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 2>if that was an actual practice or a practice estimation,

0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:51.400
<v Speaker 2>but you know, Benson did miss week sixteen with an

0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:53.960
<v Speaker 2>ankle injury. If it's a high ankle, pretty iffy whether

0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 2>he returns, but if he does, he'd be in line

0:04:57.600 --> 0:04:59.480
<v Speaker 2>for a good amount of work against the Rams, who

0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:04.120
<v Speaker 2>are sort of a neutral matchup but just not ideal

0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 2>that the Cardinals just had to put both of their

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:11.400
<v Speaker 2>starting left, their starting offensive tackles, Paris Johnson their left tackle,

0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:15.120
<v Speaker 2>and Jonah Williams their right tackle on injured reserve. Like

0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:19.560
<v Speaker 2>that is a problem for this Arizona offense. So I'm

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:23.800
<v Speaker 2>going to probably have Benson ranked somewhere in low end

0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:27.719
<v Speaker 2>RB two range if he plays something like RB somewhere

0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:29.640
<v Speaker 2>between RB twenty one and RB twenty four.

0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>What do you think eric'son similar range for you?

0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:34.960
<v Speaker 3>I think it might be a little bit lower on

0:05:35.080 --> 0:05:37.640
<v Speaker 3>Trey Benson. I don't know what the type of workload

0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:39.520
<v Speaker 3>is going to because he's also doing his own injury too,

0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:41.200
<v Speaker 3>so like we don't even know how healthy he's going

0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:43.719
<v Speaker 3>to be. We know Michael Carter will end up being

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:47.159
<v Speaker 3>the complimentary back to whoever else is starting in this game,

0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:49.479
<v Speaker 3>and right now, at least like on the injury port,

0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:51.919
<v Speaker 3>like both guys are practicing in limited capacity, so we

0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 3>know James Connor's a warrior. The benefit to this at

0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 3>least this game is on Saturday, so you're gonna get

0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.680
<v Speaker 3>to get you're gonna know about Trey Benson. So the

0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:03.240
<v Speaker 3>only players, like I think I'd be comfortable starting Benson over,

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.640
<v Speaker 3>I'm not touching this Broncos backfield, like because Jillian will

0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:08.200
<v Speaker 3>go offense healthy again, so now you have a three

0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:11.479
<v Speaker 3>headed monster. I feel better about Trade Benson's workload potentially

0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:15.200
<v Speaker 3>versus those three Denver Broncos guys. So that's the only decision.

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.640
<v Speaker 3>I would probably wait up until the news about Trey

0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 3>Benson and James Connor. But I mean, I feel like

0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:24.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm slotting him more in the Patrick Taylor. I mean,

0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:26.520
<v Speaker 3>I think I'd rather start Patrick Taylor if Isaac Grendez out.

0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:28.839
<v Speaker 3>Patrick Carreor played eighty percent of the snaps last week, Like, yes,

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:30.880
<v Speaker 3>he didn't score a touchdown, but if he does, then

0:06:31.080 --> 0:06:33.680
<v Speaker 3>you're feeling fine about the workload that he got. He's

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:36.120
<v Speaker 3>also playing against Detroit and we know their defense has

0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:39.840
<v Speaker 3>been eviscerated by injuries. So the Rams are up and down.

0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:43.920
<v Speaker 3>The Cardinals offense has just been so unreliable, and James

0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:45.600
<v Speaker 3>Connor is really the only part that's kind of worked

0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 3>all year long, and they take him out of it.

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.960
<v Speaker 3>How does his offense even function at a high level.

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:52.280
<v Speaker 3>You know, Trey Benson's not a one for one replacement

0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:55.720
<v Speaker 3>for James Connor. So yeah, I'm just I think I'm

0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:59.039
<v Speaker 3>trying to stay away and especially with the trends looking

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.279
<v Speaker 3>like Connor is I got to play just because he's

0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:03.960
<v Speaker 3>an opposite warrior and both guys have been limited up

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:05.560
<v Speaker 3>to the Thursday practices.

0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.039
<v Speaker 1>The other kind of waiver wire perch I want to

0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:10.480
<v Speaker 1>look at for this week for this segment is I

0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:11.920
<v Speaker 1>just want to have you guys picked kind of your

0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 1>favorite available defense slash special teams. Four week seventeen. This

0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.280
<v Speaker 1>is a week that I know, like I do this

0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>in all of my leagues where I'm you know, in

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:22.480
<v Speaker 1>a position for the one seed, or I have an

0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:24.440
<v Speaker 1>extra bench spot where like a couple of weeks ahead

0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:27.440
<v Speaker 1>of time, I'm picking up defenses early four week seventeen

0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.560
<v Speaker 1>just to have whoever's facing you know, earlier in the year,

0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:32.400
<v Speaker 1>it looked like it would be whoever's facing the Panthers,

0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:34.160
<v Speaker 1>so the Bucks or you know, at this time of year,

0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:37.480
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's the Giants. Who is the dst fits that

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:39.440
<v Speaker 1>you are looking at this week as the I want

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:41.560
<v Speaker 1>to pick this team up and help them, you know,

0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 1>help me get a championship.

0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:46.160
<v Speaker 2>So I want to get either the Colts against the

0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:49.320
<v Speaker 2>Giants and Drew Locke, who had two pick sixes last week,

0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:54.520
<v Speaker 2>or the Dolphins against the Browns and Dorian Thompson Robinson.

0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:57.880
<v Speaker 2>But both of those defenses are about they're they're roster

0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:00.720
<v Speaker 2>in about half of Yahoo leagues, and pro believe more

0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.880
<v Speaker 2>in leagues where all the where everyone is really dialed in.

0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:10.320
<v Speaker 2>So of the widely available defenses, let me endorse the

0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:13.320
<v Speaker 2>Las Vegas Raiders, and they have not been a good

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:16.560
<v Speaker 2>fantasy defense. I think they're bottom three in defensive Fantasy

0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:20.880
<v Speaker 2>scoring and that was with superstar edge rusher Max Crosby,

0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.280
<v Speaker 2>who is out for the rest of the year. But

0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:27.680
<v Speaker 2>what we saw from the New Orleans Saints Monday night

0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:31.360
<v Speaker 2>against the Green Bay Packers. I know the Raiders are

0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:33.840
<v Speaker 2>not as good defensively as the Packers are, but this

0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:39.120
<v Speaker 2>Saints offense is just completely toothless without Derek Carr and

0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:41.080
<v Speaker 2>it looks like it's going to be Spencer Rattler at

0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:45.200
<v Speaker 2>quarterback this week to target the New Orleans offense with

0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:46.280
<v Speaker 2>the Raiders defense.

0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Erickson, what do you think who's your DST djoure for

0:08:49.240 --> 0:08:49.600
<v Speaker 1>the week?

0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:52.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I like the points that fits brought up. I

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:55.559
<v Speaker 3>think definitely the djor is the Dolphins and Colts. I

0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:57.920
<v Speaker 3>think those are the top two. But if they're not available,

0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 3>the Raiders. I'm just gonna looking at their games and

0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:02.679
<v Speaker 3>talking about how, yes they're not a great defense, they

0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:04.079
<v Speaker 3>don't have a lot of good players, but we look

0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:06.920
<v Speaker 3>at they have three top ten finishes this year against

0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:10.079
<v Speaker 3>the Browns, against the Buccaneers, and against the Falcons. Right,

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 3>so it's really been more about well who do they

0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:15.120
<v Speaker 3>play in those certain scenarios, not how good their defense

0:09:15.200 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 3>actually is. So I co sign on the Raiders. Pick

0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:20.400
<v Speaker 3>there the one that I like a lot that's also

0:09:20.440 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 3>kind of under owned. I'm looking at our Waiver Wire

0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:26.320
<v Speaker 3>rankings twenty three percent owned is the Tennessee Titans. So

0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.040
<v Speaker 3>they're playing on the road against the Jaguars, but you

0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:31.880
<v Speaker 3>have Mac Jones as the quarterback, and we've already seen

0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.240
<v Speaker 3>the Titans play the Jaguars a couple weeks ago and

0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:37.120
<v Speaker 3>they were the fifth rank defense that week. So they

0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:39.520
<v Speaker 3>finished with nine Fantasy points and they get they only

0:09:39.520 --> 0:09:42.680
<v Speaker 3>gave up ten points on offense, so or excuse me,

0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:45.240
<v Speaker 3>on defense. So I like the Tennessee Titans as an option.

0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:48.240
<v Speaker 3>I think also we're potentially looking at weather and that

0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:51.679
<v Speaker 3>game in Jacksonville, so not like cold, but rainy conditions.

0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:54.200
<v Speaker 3>So with just two bad quarterbacks, going at it like

0:09:54.240 --> 0:09:57.000
<v Speaker 3>that an environment where you're creating turnovers and you're not

0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:59.040
<v Speaker 3>too concerned about Oh, well, the Jaguars are going to

0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:02.760
<v Speaker 3>put up points on this defense, that's probably not likely

0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:05.560
<v Speaker 3>going to happen. The divisional game usually much tighter, So

0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.000
<v Speaker 3>I think the Titans and I do want to say, again,

0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:10.520
<v Speaker 3>you talked about defenses you like, I think you want

0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:13.280
<v Speaker 3>to avoid, so some another defense has kind of been

0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:15.720
<v Speaker 3>in our rankings is Tampa Bay, right, so they're playing

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:17.839
<v Speaker 3>Carolina and a lot I've seen a lot of people

0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:20.240
<v Speaker 3>look at them as a potential option. I would not

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:22.560
<v Speaker 3>want them as my defense. The Tampa Buccaneers defense is

0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:26.200
<v Speaker 3>bad number one, and they've already faced Carolina earlier this

0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.680
<v Speaker 3>year and they were not a good man. They scored

0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:32.080
<v Speaker 3>three Fantasy points, so I know that in the aggregate,

0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:35.440
<v Speaker 3>Oh Carolina, great defense to target. Brycetong has been playing

0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:38.320
<v Speaker 3>much better. And again we saw this matchup already played

0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:40.199
<v Speaker 3>out and this game was a shootout between the Panthers

0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:42.400
<v Speaker 3>and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So that's something that I

0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:45.240
<v Speaker 3>would try to avoid. I would go with the Raiders

0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:47.480
<v Speaker 3>over the Buccaneers. I would go with the Titans over

0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:50.360
<v Speaker 3>the Buccaneers, So again another team that's kind of out

0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:52.640
<v Speaker 3>there that might look good on paper. I don't like

0:10:52.640 --> 0:10:54.160
<v Speaker 3>them as much as some of these other teams we've

0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:54.840
<v Speaker 3>talked about.

0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Let's plant our flags on some players here for the

0:10:57.960 --> 0:11:00.599
<v Speaker 1>final time this season. By the way, just bit housekeeping,

0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:02.760
<v Speaker 1>we're not going to have this show next week for

0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Week eighteen, just because so many leagues are already done.

0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:07.760
<v Speaker 1>We will have other shows throughout the week, so there

0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:10.520
<v Speaker 1>will be conversations about that, slated games, and we'll look

0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:12.560
<v Speaker 1>at it from you know, if you are playing, maybe

0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:15.480
<v Speaker 1>who are some players that have incentives to try and

0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:16.920
<v Speaker 1>hit that we're going to be keeping an eye on,

0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:18.520
<v Speaker 1>and a whole bunch of other stuff. So there will

0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:20.960
<v Speaker 1>be shows next week, just not this starts it show

0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:23.520
<v Speaker 1>in particular. So for the final time this season, fits,

0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:24.800
<v Speaker 1>who are you planting your flag on?

0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:28.880
<v Speaker 2>It's sort of a conditional flag plant worm, but I'm

0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:32.800
<v Speaker 2>going to put it on Davante Smith, and it's conditional

0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:36.079
<v Speaker 2>upon Jalen Hurts being able to play this week after

0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:40.600
<v Speaker 2>sustaining a concussion in Week sixteen. But Davante Smith had

0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:45.079
<v Speaker 2>an egregious fourth quarter drop that basically costs the Eagles

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:48.040
<v Speaker 2>their game against the Washington Commanders last week. I think

0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.400
<v Speaker 2>if Hurts plays, Davante Smith will make up for it

0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:52.720
<v Speaker 2>this week against the Cowboys.

0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:54.520
<v Speaker 1>Ericon, what do you think about Smith this week?

0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:57.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, I think that's a good spot for

0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:00.360
<v Speaker 3>him against the Dallas Cowboys. Yeah, you should be motive, right,

0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:02.040
<v Speaker 3>you know, he kind of left his team out to

0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:04.800
<v Speaker 3>dry in the last week's game. And look, we've seen

0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.960
<v Speaker 3>Smith again. It's weird this year because the Eagles have

0:12:08.080 --> 0:12:11.400
<v Speaker 3>just been so run heavy, But traditionally, Devonte Smith has

0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:13.800
<v Speaker 3>been a locked in, loaded wide receiver tour better in

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:16.840
<v Speaker 3>games where Dallas Godder doesn't play. So I think that

0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:19.920
<v Speaker 3>he has a really high ceiling. And yeah, I like

0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:22.160
<v Speaker 3>this play here as long as Hurts is ready to go.

0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:23.600
<v Speaker 3>And I think that they're gonna I think they're gonna

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.000
<v Speaker 3>find a way to get him to clear the concussion protocol.

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:28.240
<v Speaker 1>So sticking with you, ericson, who are you planting your

0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:28.599
<v Speaker 1>flag on?

0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:32.000
<v Speaker 3>The guy I talked about on the Prediction Show earlier

0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:34.600
<v Speaker 3>in the week, Jack Dobbins, I think that he's gonna play.

0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:36.040
<v Speaker 3>I think he's gonna play in Week seventeen. I think

0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.840
<v Speaker 3>he's gonna run all over the New England Patriots defense

0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:41.079
<v Speaker 3>because I think this Pagriot's defense. I watched him every

0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:43.480
<v Speaker 3>single week. They are terrible. They can't tackle, they can't

0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:45.280
<v Speaker 3>stop the run, and they can't stop the pass. The

0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:47.559
<v Speaker 3>only enjoyable part about Patriot's games is watching Drake may

0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:50.160
<v Speaker 3>be awesome like that that is literally hit because their

0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:53.520
<v Speaker 3>defense is so bad. Nine or last eleven running backs

0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:55.760
<v Speaker 3>they have faced have gone over their rushing arts projection,

0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:58.400
<v Speaker 3>including eighty six plus yards and three of their last

0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:02.440
<v Speaker 3>four games. And jas Man even at like seventy five percent,

0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:04.840
<v Speaker 3>that dude has more juice than Gus Edwards. I'm sorry,

0:13:04.960 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 3>like like like the Gus bus ripping off a fourty

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:08.680
<v Speaker 3>yard run for the first time in his career. It

0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:11.840
<v Speaker 3>seems like like on Thursday night a couple of weeks ago.

0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:13.560
<v Speaker 3>He's also a little bit banged up on the injury

0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:16.319
<v Speaker 3>report this week. So I don't think the Chargers have

0:13:16.360 --> 0:13:20.360
<v Speaker 3>a choice, right They need expulsiveness on offense and Dobbins

0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:22.319
<v Speaker 3>he's looked good. It seems like I've read some of

0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:24.720
<v Speaker 3>the practice sports It's like, hey, he's looking good, he's

0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:28.080
<v Speaker 3>moving around, he looks fine, he's good to go. So again,

0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:30.800
<v Speaker 3>they want. They've designated him from return from IR he

0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:34.120
<v Speaker 3>hasn't officially been activated. I don't believe for this game,

0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:36.079
<v Speaker 3>but this is the first game on Saturday, so you're

0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:38.520
<v Speaker 3>gonna get to know. Hey, he's ready to go. I

0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:39.960
<v Speaker 3>don't think he's going to be held back. I think

0:13:40.000 --> 0:13:41.600
<v Speaker 3>that he's going to get at least double digit touches

0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:44.560
<v Speaker 3>and that's more than enough to get it done against

0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:48.240
<v Speaker 3>the New England Patriots. So if I have Dobbins, I'm

0:13:48.240 --> 0:13:50.040
<v Speaker 3>trying to find way to get him in my lineup

0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.800
<v Speaker 3>as just at least as like a flex play. I'd

0:13:52.840 --> 0:13:54.600
<v Speaker 3>like him a lot more like a Tredy Benson scenario

0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:57.599
<v Speaker 3>where O'Connor's out. I would rather start JK. Dobbins in

0:13:57.840 --> 0:13:58.840
<v Speaker 3>that kind of head to head.

0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:01.320
<v Speaker 1>What do you think it's a Do you think Dobbins

0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:03.360
<v Speaker 1>is gonna play based on everything you've seen both he

0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:06.640
<v Speaker 1>and Edwards were limited in practice on Wednesday, and b

0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:08.839
<v Speaker 1>if he is playing, where you're gonna rank him?

0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:13.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this is kind of a tricky one. I don't

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:17.200
<v Speaker 2>know what the Chargers' strategy is going to be for

0:14:17.360 --> 0:14:21.080
<v Speaker 2>the return of Dobbins. Maybe Ericson is right and they

0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:25.600
<v Speaker 2>just throw him right back into that lead role. I

0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:29.000
<v Speaker 2>guess I'm not quite as confident that he walks right

0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:31.720
<v Speaker 2>back into fifteen to twenty touches, and I think it

0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:34.800
<v Speaker 2>could be sort of a messy committee situation with Dobbins

0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:39.600
<v Speaker 2>got Edward's a little Kamani Videll sprinkled in, so not

0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:42.240
<v Speaker 2>quite as confident, and I would probably have him ranked

0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:46.080
<v Speaker 2>in like mid range running back three territory if he

0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:46.960
<v Speaker 2>does indeed play.

0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:50.640

0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 1>All right, fellas, let's do some start sick player debates.

0:16:31.640 --> 0:16:34.120
<v Speaker 1>We'll start with the running backs as usual. Ericson, how

0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:36.960
<v Speaker 1>about Rashad White or Rico Daudell this week?

0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:39.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to play with Shrod White. I just I

0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:43.160
<v Speaker 3>think that Carolina Panthers defense is one that multiple running

0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:45.320
<v Speaker 3>backs can get home against. We've already seen this matchup before,

0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:47.320
<v Speaker 3>and Shod White was very productive against the Panthers the

0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:50.120
<v Speaker 3>last time they played. Yes, is he still the the

0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:53.520
<v Speaker 3>one b in this backfield debucky? Yes, especially after re

0:16:53.560 --> 0:16:56.200
<v Speaker 3>fumble last week. But he still catches passes and that's

0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:58.800
<v Speaker 3>something that Rico Daubtle, even in his spellcow role, like

0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:02.760
<v Speaker 3>his receiving uses hasn't been like fantastic with Cooper Rush

0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:04.680
<v Speaker 3>under center. And then you just have the general matchup

0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:07.400
<v Speaker 3>against the Philadelphia Eagles, arguably the best defense in the NFL.

0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:09.679
<v Speaker 3>Dallar didn't have a great game the last time that

0:17:09.720 --> 0:17:11.560
<v Speaker 3>he faced the Eagles. Again, the role was a little

0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.680
<v Speaker 3>bit different, but I think that White's role is still

0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:17.600
<v Speaker 3>good enough given just how great the matchup is against

0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:21.119
<v Speaker 3>the Panthers, to give me the slight edge over over dabble.

0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:22.960
<v Speaker 1>Here fits what do you think about this one?

0:17:24.119 --> 0:17:26.600
<v Speaker 2>So it's really close. I have them back to back

0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:29.160
<v Speaker 2>in my rankings, but I do have Rico one spot

0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:32.280
<v Speaker 2>higher at RB seventeen, White at RB eighteen. I know

0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:35.760
<v Speaker 2>Rico kind of flopped last week, and I know the

0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:39.600
<v Speaker 2>matchup with the Eagles is not exactly a red carpet matchup.

0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:41.600
<v Speaker 2>This is going to be a tricky one. But over

0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:45.120
<v Speaker 2>his last five games, Rico has averaged nineteen point four carries,

0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:48.120
<v Speaker 2>twenty one point four touches, and one hundred and twelve

0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:53.400
<v Speaker 2>scrimmage yards per game. He has been getting belky usage,

0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:55.639
<v Speaker 2>and he was not the last time he played the Eagles,

0:17:55.640 --> 0:17:58.200
<v Speaker 2>so I kind of throw that result out the window.

0:17:58.760 --> 0:18:02.960
<v Speaker 2>White is obviously sharing a backfield with Bucky Irving. He

0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:06.440
<v Speaker 2>usually gets somewhere between like ten and seventeen touches a game.

0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:10.880
<v Speaker 2>Not bad. Since the Buccaneers Week eleven by Rashad, White

0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:14.200
<v Speaker 2>has averaged fourteen point two touches seventy five scrimmage yards

0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:16.480
<v Speaker 2>a game. Not bad at all. It gets the best

0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:20.040
<v Speaker 2>possible matchup against the Panthers. But it just comes down

0:18:20.080 --> 0:18:23.640
<v Speaker 2>to rankings philosophy for me, worm and I always give

0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:28.280
<v Speaker 2>more weights to workload than to match up when I'm

0:18:28.359 --> 0:18:31.760
<v Speaker 2>putting together running back rankings every week. Usage is my

0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:35.080
<v Speaker 2>north star and I just follow it in most cases

0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:38.719
<v Speaker 2>no matter what. And just the fact that he is

0:18:38.800 --> 0:18:42.760
<v Speaker 2>probably going to get about six or seven more touches

0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:46.600
<v Speaker 2>than Rashad White, even though he is the much tougher matchup.

0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:49.680
<v Speaker 2>I would rather go with the guy getting those extra touches.

0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:52.120
<v Speaker 1>Given the matchup and the fact that he's coming off

0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:55.760
<v Speaker 1>this really poor game in Week sixteen fits what you know,

0:18:55.840 --> 0:19:00.680
<v Speaker 1>what is your emotionally confidence level when started Rico Dawdle,

0:19:00.720 --> 0:19:03.600
<v Speaker 1>When you're sitting there for the actual Fantasy Championship, knowing

0:19:03.640 --> 0:19:06.040
<v Speaker 1>he's facing the Eagles, knowing he's coming off this game

0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:08.359
<v Speaker 1>where he had just twenty three rushing yards, how are

0:19:08.440 --> 0:19:11.119
<v Speaker 1>you feeling mentally sliding him into your starting spot.

0:19:12.040 --> 0:19:14.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean I'd be wishing he had an easier matchup,

0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:18.440
<v Speaker 2>that's for sure. Like you know, he faced Carolina not

0:19:18.560 --> 0:19:20.640
<v Speaker 2>long ago. I would be wishing I had that matchup

0:19:20.640 --> 0:19:24.480
<v Speaker 2>for Rico Dowdle, because like Rico, in a good matchup

0:19:24.520 --> 0:19:27.720
<v Speaker 2>would be just you'd feel all the confidence in the world.

0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:30.520
<v Speaker 2>You can't really feel that going against the Eagles. But

0:19:30.640 --> 0:19:33.639
<v Speaker 2>you know, this Dallas offense has been competent with Cooper

0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:35.879
<v Speaker 2>Rush at quarterbacks, so I don't feel bad about it

0:19:35.960 --> 0:19:36.359
<v Speaker 2>at all.

0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:40.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to another running back debate here, ericson Brian Robinson,

0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:42.200
<v Speaker 1>who I know you talked about earlier in the week

0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:44.879
<v Speaker 1>as somebody you expect to bounce back. Or Jerome Ford

0:19:44.920 --> 0:19:48.160
<v Speaker 1>who's stepped right into the lead, you know, running back

0:19:48.200 --> 0:19:50.479
<v Speaker 1>in this backfield with Nick Chubb on the shelf.

0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:53.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm going back to de Brian Robinson, but yeah,

0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:55.160
<v Speaker 3>he was someone I talked about on the Prediction Show,

0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:56.680
<v Speaker 3>someone that I think could go over one hundred yards

0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:59.440
<v Speaker 3>from scrimmage score touchdown against the Falcons. I think the

0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:01.480
<v Speaker 3>matchup is my better. Again, he's not facing the Eagles

0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:03.639
<v Speaker 3>this week. The Falcons, I think, against some of the

0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:07.440
<v Speaker 3>better competition, have shown a vulnerability against running backs. He

0:20:07.560 --> 0:20:09.560
<v Speaker 3>the last eleven run backs to face Atlanta have gone

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:11.919
<v Speaker 3>over the rushing arts projection. Now, they looked better on

0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:14.280
<v Speaker 3>paper over the last couple weeks, but a lot of

0:20:14.320 --> 0:20:16.720
<v Speaker 3>that I'm chalking up to, Well, they've had a lot

0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:18.439
<v Speaker 3>of softer match I mean like they're playing the New

0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:20.960
<v Speaker 3>York Giants, right, Like, are you expecting his Giants this

0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:24.560
<v Speaker 3>Giants offensive run all over them? Probably not so. Even

0:20:24.600 --> 0:20:26.720
<v Speaker 3>as bad as last week was again he fumbled twice,

0:20:27.200 --> 0:20:30.160
<v Speaker 3>ten carries for twenty four yards, he still has involved

0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:31.960
<v Speaker 3>in the passing game, caught two or three targets for

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:35.200
<v Speaker 3>seventeen yards, still played a great snap share sixty three

0:20:35.200 --> 0:20:37.959
<v Speaker 3>percent of the snaps. He just didn't get the touchdown right.

0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:39.600
<v Speaker 3>He went over three rushing in the red zone. So

0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:41.120
<v Speaker 3>if he had scored last week, he would have bailed

0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 3>you out with the touchdown. Wouldn't feel nearly as bad.

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:45.840
<v Speaker 3>But I think that the commander's role here. They're playing

0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:48.920
<v Speaker 3>at home against the Falcons. Defensive overall is a unit

0:20:48.960 --> 0:20:51.000
<v Speaker 3>that I am not inspired by in any way, shape

0:20:51.040 --> 0:20:53.639
<v Speaker 3>or form, especially their pass defense. So if Jane Daniels

0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:55.919
<v Speaker 3>is moving the ball effectively and he's not throwing for

0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:58.679
<v Speaker 3>five touchdowns, well the touchdowns are going to go towards

0:20:58.720 --> 0:21:01.960
<v Speaker 3>Brian Robinson here without Austin Ecklers think that his role

0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:05.639
<v Speaker 3>is still underrated as a workhorse in this backfield, and

0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:07.160
<v Speaker 3>I think that he bounces back to me and again

0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:09.000
<v Speaker 3>like we've seen this, this real life thing right like

0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:11.000
<v Speaker 3>he left his he did not help his team last

0:21:11.040 --> 0:21:14.000
<v Speaker 3>week at all, like fumble twice was not effective. But

0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:16.320
<v Speaker 3>I think that he bounces back here. So I'm gonna

0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:18.119
<v Speaker 3>go with Brian Robinson. And just the thing with Ford

0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:20.840
<v Speaker 3>is I just just last week he had the massive

0:21:20.880 --> 0:21:23.280
<v Speaker 3>run right right from the get go. But we've just

0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:26.320
<v Speaker 3>seen this offense like the potential for the crumble with

0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:28.679
<v Speaker 3>DTR as the quarterback, and now they're talking about like

0:21:28.680 --> 0:21:32.639
<v Speaker 3>Bailey's appy as you do not want Bailey's appy anywhere

0:21:32.640 --> 0:21:34.600
<v Speaker 3>near you're starting again. I watched him all last year

0:21:34.600 --> 0:21:37.200
<v Speaker 3>with the New England Patriots. It is something you do

0:21:37.359 --> 0:21:40.040
<v Speaker 3>want any parts of when that guy is taking snaps

0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:41.679
<v Speaker 3>under center. So that's the only thing I'm afraid of

0:21:41.720 --> 0:21:44.000
<v Speaker 3>with Ford, even though yes, Ford of allved Moore as

0:21:44.000 --> 0:21:48.680
<v Speaker 3>a pass catcher, explosive DTR can just destroy an entire offense,

0:21:48.800 --> 0:21:52.160
<v Speaker 3>and especially with ZAPPI I'm very concerned about the floor

0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:54.719
<v Speaker 3>bottoming out with Ford, where Brian Robinson I feel much

0:21:54.800 --> 0:21:56.200
<v Speaker 3>better about his floor.

0:21:56.400 --> 0:21:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Did you say how out of gap you have between

0:21:58.560 --> 0:21:59.800
<v Speaker 1>these two guys and your rankings.

0:22:01.240 --> 0:22:05.000
<v Speaker 3>No, I did not. I have Robinson RB sixteen and

0:22:05.400 --> 0:22:07.760
<v Speaker 3>Ford RB twenty five, so it's pretty significant. I think

0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:11.119
<v Speaker 3>it's probably much higher on Brian Robinson that ECR probably

0:22:11.160 --> 0:22:13.440
<v Speaker 3>have to guess. And then Ford, I'm probably a little

0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:14.320
<v Speaker 3>bit lower on ECR.

0:22:14.520 --> 0:22:18.200
<v Speaker 1>So you're actually it's more that you're lower on Ford

0:22:18.400 --> 0:22:22.159
<v Speaker 1>than high on Robinson. Robinson, you're fairly close to the

0:22:22.200 --> 0:22:25.080
<v Speaker 1>way ECR currently looks here as of Thursday morning. But

0:22:25.160 --> 0:22:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Ford your several spots lower. Fits. How do you see

0:22:27.400 --> 0:22:27.760
<v Speaker 1>this one?

0:22:29.119 --> 0:22:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've got him much closer than Ericson does, and

0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:36.000
<v Speaker 2>I've actually got Ford ranks higher RB twenty versus RB

0:22:36.080 --> 0:22:39.200
<v Speaker 2>twenty one. I do love Ericson's enthusiasm for Brian Robinson

0:22:39.240 --> 0:22:41.680
<v Speaker 2>since I'm starting him in two championship games this week.

0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:45.160
<v Speaker 1>You actually survived championship with Brian Robinson on your team?

0:22:46.000 --> 0:22:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I did and twice, So yes, I feel fortunate because

0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:53.880
<v Speaker 2>he definitely did not help me get to the championship

0:22:53.880 --> 0:22:57.359
<v Speaker 2>game last week. Yeah, this one is tough. So Ford

0:22:57.400 --> 0:23:00.880
<v Speaker 2>had eleven carries in five catches last week, and Erickson

0:23:00.960 --> 0:23:03.359
<v Speaker 2>pointed out, you know, he had the big day one

0:23:03.400 --> 0:23:05.639
<v Speaker 2>hundred and thirty one scrimmageyards and a touchdown. But he

0:23:05.680 --> 0:23:08.000
<v Speaker 2>got almost half of those scrimmage yards on that first

0:23:08.080 --> 0:23:11.560
<v Speaker 2>quarter sixty six yard run. But he did play eighty

0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:14.680
<v Speaker 2>percent of Cleveland's offensive snaps like he is the guy

0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:20.720
<v Speaker 2>and he gets dual run catch usage. I don't hate

0:23:20.720 --> 0:23:24.840
<v Speaker 2>the outlook for Robinson. I don't love that the Falcons

0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:27.840
<v Speaker 2>have only allowed four rushing touchdowns to running backs all year.

0:23:27.880 --> 0:23:31.080
<v Speaker 2>That's tied with the Chargers for second fewest, I believe,

0:23:32.240 --> 0:23:35.840
<v Speaker 2>and or excuse me, tied with the Chargers for the fewest,

0:23:36.560 --> 0:23:39.199
<v Speaker 2>and the two fumbles last week that does kind of

0:23:39.200 --> 0:23:41.400
<v Speaker 2>concern me because I feel like if Robinson puts another

0:23:41.400 --> 0:23:43.800
<v Speaker 2>one on the ground, he's gonna it's gonna cost him

0:23:43.800 --> 0:23:46.600
<v Speaker 2>playing time. Like I would not be surprised if that

0:23:46.720 --> 0:23:53.239
<v Speaker 2>meant more Chris Rodriguez and Jeremy McNichols. So not an

0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:56.840
<v Speaker 2>easy matchup for either of these guys. I mean, Miami's

0:23:56.920 --> 0:23:59.439
<v Speaker 2>run defense has been pretty tough two of lates, but

0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:04.840
<v Speaker 2>I feel slightly better about Ford despite the quarterback situation

0:24:04.920 --> 0:24:05.520
<v Speaker 2>in Cleveland.

0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:09.600
<v Speaker 1>Let's stick with you for our first wide receiver debate here.

0:24:10.240 --> 0:24:13.639
<v Speaker 1>How about Garrett Wilson or Juwan Jennings. Who would you

0:24:13.680 --> 0:24:14.840
<v Speaker 1>prefer for Week seventeen?

0:24:15.840 --> 0:24:17.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh, this is going to be a fun debate because

0:24:17.440 --> 0:24:19.639
<v Speaker 2>I know Ericson is one of the He might be

0:24:19.760 --> 0:24:23.080
<v Speaker 2>the highest of any ranker on Juwan Jennings this week,

0:24:23.119 --> 0:24:26.040
<v Speaker 2>and I think I'm one of the lowest on Juwan Jennings.

0:24:26.080 --> 0:24:30.040
<v Speaker 2>I've got Jennings Wide Receiver thirty one and Garrett Wilson

0:24:30.080 --> 0:24:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Wide Receiver twenty three. I think I'm pretty much in

0:24:33.760 --> 0:24:37.560
<v Speaker 2>line with consensus on Wilson. Everyone knows the story with

0:24:37.640 --> 0:24:40.440
<v Speaker 2>him terrific player, but he has become the Jets number

0:24:40.440 --> 0:24:44.359
<v Speaker 2>two receiver, taking sort of a backseat to Devonte Adams.

0:24:44.440 --> 0:24:47.680
<v Speaker 2>But it is worth noting that Adams either missed practice

0:24:47.840 --> 0:24:51.439
<v Speaker 2>or was an estimated missed practice this week. I'm not

0:24:51.480 --> 0:24:55.640
<v Speaker 2>sure what his malady is, I can't remember, but if

0:24:55.680 --> 0:24:58.840
<v Speaker 2>Adams wound up being scratched, this is a no brainer.

0:25:00.520 --> 0:25:00.800
<v Speaker 3>For me.

0:25:00.880 --> 0:25:05.880
<v Speaker 2>This is mostly about Jennings. Like I just think Jennings'

0:25:06.040 --> 0:25:10.879
<v Speaker 2>enthusiasm has maybe reached the tipping point. He's proven this

0:25:10.960 --> 0:25:13.760
<v Speaker 2>year he's a really good receiver, but I don't think

0:25:13.800 --> 0:25:17.520
<v Speaker 2>he's quite the star he has been anointed to be

0:25:17.680 --> 0:25:22.639
<v Speaker 2>by rankers and Yes, he's had some really big games

0:25:22.680 --> 0:25:25.040
<v Speaker 2>this year, but Jennings has also had fifty six or

0:25:25.080 --> 0:25:28.200
<v Speaker 2>fewer receiving yards in four of his last five games.

0:25:28.640 --> 0:25:31.320
<v Speaker 2>The San Francisco offense has sort of lost the plot

0:25:31.400 --> 0:25:34.760
<v Speaker 2>over the last six weeks. They've scored seventeen or fewer

0:25:34.800 --> 0:25:38.600
<v Speaker 2>points in five of their last six games, the one

0:25:38.640 --> 0:25:41.960
<v Speaker 2>exception big game for Jennings thirty eight point outburst against

0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:45.800
<v Speaker 2>the Chicago Bears. But it just seems like kind of

0:25:45.800 --> 0:25:48.119
<v Speaker 2>a dubious proposition to me that the forty nine ers

0:25:48.160 --> 0:25:49.920
<v Speaker 2>are going to all of a sudden get it together

0:25:49.960 --> 0:25:52.480
<v Speaker 2>on offense when they have been eliminated from the playoffs

0:25:52.520 --> 0:25:54.320
<v Speaker 2>and are not going to get star left tackle back

0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Trent Williams for the rest of the year. So I

0:25:57.040 --> 0:26:00.760
<v Speaker 2>do worry about this offense as a whole. Yes, the

0:26:00.760 --> 0:26:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Detroit lineup Lions defense is really banged up, but it's

0:26:05.840 --> 0:26:10.359
<v Speaker 2>still a pretty good defense to me. So I don't know.

0:26:10.840 --> 0:26:14.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm not as enthusiastic about jenn I'm like a dozen

0:26:14.840 --> 0:26:18.080
<v Speaker 2>rankings spots behind consensus on him. I think his ECR

0:26:18.240 --> 0:26:20.560
<v Speaker 2>is like, what is a worm wide receiver nineteen?

0:26:21.280 --> 0:26:23.880
<v Speaker 1>I think like twenty. Yeah, it's wide receiver twenty.

0:26:23.880 --> 0:26:25.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean funny, so I'm down at thirty.

0:26:25.720 --> 0:26:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Like to that point, you guys are actually both

0:26:27.920 --> 0:26:31.120
<v Speaker 1>very in line with consensus on Garrett Wilson, He's wide

0:26:31.160 --> 0:26:35.160
<v Speaker 1>receiver twenty four in ECR. Jennings is the one where

0:26:35.680 --> 0:26:38.000
<v Speaker 1>it makes this an interesting debate because you are so

0:26:38.119 --> 0:26:40.639
<v Speaker 1>much lower Fits and ericson you are so much higher

0:26:40.640 --> 0:26:41.520
<v Speaker 1>on Jennings.

0:26:42.200 --> 0:26:44.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I have more receiver twelve. So I want to

0:26:44.600 --> 0:26:47.639
<v Speaker 3>start drawn Jennings because when I'm just looking at the

0:26:47.880 --> 0:26:52.520
<v Speaker 3>quarterback wide receiver combinations, Garrett Wilson and and Aaron Rodgers

0:26:52.520 --> 0:26:55.199
<v Speaker 3>don't have the chemistry that Jennings and Brook Pritty have

0:26:55.200 --> 0:26:57.760
<v Speaker 3>shown all year long. Like I get that last week

0:26:57.880 --> 0:26:59.920
<v Speaker 3>it was more the debo popped off, George Kittle popped

0:26:59.920 --> 0:27:02.240
<v Speaker 3>o off the bigger game. But that's just what happens

0:27:02.280 --> 0:27:04.960
<v Speaker 3>with these forty niners receivers sometimes, like Jennings is really

0:27:05.040 --> 0:27:07.080
<v Speaker 3>like the whole year, Jennings for me has been the

0:27:07.119 --> 0:27:09.119
<v Speaker 3>guy that I wanted brand n Ayuk to be, and like

0:27:09.200 --> 0:27:11.600
<v Speaker 3>he's in that role where you have these massive games

0:27:11.640 --> 0:27:13.679
<v Speaker 3>every once in a while, but sometimes you know, the

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:16.040
<v Speaker 3>other guys get to eat. And last week was the

0:27:16.080 --> 0:27:18.399
<v Speaker 3>first time we saw Deebo Samuel eat at all in

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:21.640
<v Speaker 3>over like a six month period or a six week period,

0:27:22.040 --> 0:27:24.520
<v Speaker 3>where Juwan Jennings I think has been the way more

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:27.680
<v Speaker 3>consistent of the forty nine ers top receivers. And look

0:27:27.800 --> 0:27:29.640
<v Speaker 3>Week fourteen against the Bears, Like he had a twenty

0:27:29.680 --> 0:27:31.639
<v Speaker 3>five point game. That was three weeks ago. He was

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 3>a wide receiver five So like, that wasn't that long ago.

0:27:34.160 --> 0:27:36.760
<v Speaker 3>The Rams game throw it out because of the rain,

0:27:36.880 --> 0:27:38.919
<v Speaker 3>and in that game he still had nine targets. He

0:27:38.960 --> 0:27:41.560
<v Speaker 3>still led the team in targets in that game last

0:27:41.600 --> 0:27:44.719
<v Speaker 3>week again four fifty one, But I chalked that up

0:27:44.760 --> 0:27:47.560
<v Speaker 3>to well Kittle popped off and and Deebo Sama popped off.

0:27:47.560 --> 0:27:49.560
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes not all the receivers are going to pop off

0:27:49.560 --> 0:27:51.800
<v Speaker 3>in the offense. And yet he still had eighty one

0:27:51.800 --> 0:27:53.560
<v Speaker 3>aer yards, still let the team with a forty five

0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:56.400
<v Speaker 3>percent air yards share. So this is the classic case

0:27:56.400 --> 0:27:58.960
<v Speaker 3>of hey, Like, if this had been Brandon Nyuk in

0:27:58.960 --> 0:28:00.959
<v Speaker 3>the exact same situation, I'd be like looking to buy

0:28:01.040 --> 0:28:04.199
<v Speaker 3>him against Against the Lions, the Lions defense that has

0:28:04.240 --> 0:28:07.160
<v Speaker 3>just been so injured all over the place, every team

0:28:07.200 --> 0:28:09.760
<v Speaker 3>is scoring points against them. I think it's going to

0:28:09.800 --> 0:28:11.159
<v Speaker 3>be a shoot. I mean, the forty nine ers, one

0:28:11.200 --> 0:28:12.960
<v Speaker 3>thing they can do is play on offense, right, I

0:28:13.000 --> 0:28:15.119
<v Speaker 3>still think they can score points. I like Rock Purty

0:28:15.160 --> 0:28:17.520
<v Speaker 3>a lot in this matchup, playing at home, so I

0:28:17.600 --> 0:28:19.440
<v Speaker 3>like going right back to Juwan Jenning. There's a ton

0:28:19.440 --> 0:28:20.959
<v Speaker 3>of upside. See. I mean, that's what he's done all

0:28:21.000 --> 0:28:23.639
<v Speaker 3>the year. He has three top ten finishes wide receiver one,

0:28:23.680 --> 0:28:26.960
<v Speaker 3>my receiver eight, wide receiver five, and Garrett Wilson. I mean,

0:28:27.160 --> 0:28:29.880
<v Speaker 3>every time this guy talks about his role with the team,

0:28:29.920 --> 0:28:31.280
<v Speaker 3>he's like, I don't know, I don't know if I

0:28:31.320 --> 0:28:34.000
<v Speaker 3>want to be here, Like he just seems so checked out.

0:28:34.280 --> 0:28:37.119
<v Speaker 3>And I can guarantee, you know, Aaron Rodgers five hundreds

0:28:37.160 --> 0:28:39.320
<v Speaker 3>touchdown pass all the regular season not going to Garrett Wilson,

0:28:39.600 --> 0:28:42.520
<v Speaker 3>Like he's not throwing it to Garrett Wilson, Whereas Jennings

0:28:42.520 --> 0:28:45.920
<v Speaker 3>has been Rock Purdy's guy more often than not this season.

0:28:46.040 --> 0:28:48.680
<v Speaker 3>So I just I want to chase the upside with

0:28:48.720 --> 0:28:51.920
<v Speaker 3>a matchup against the Detroit Lions versus Garrett Wilson, where

0:28:51.960 --> 0:28:54.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, I'm like hoping that Rogers, like just just

0:28:54.200 --> 0:28:56.240
<v Speaker 3>give this guy a couple of targets like, please, where

0:28:56.240 --> 0:28:59.240
<v Speaker 3>I think that's going to happen much easier for Juwan Jennings.

0:28:59.320 --> 0:29:02.440
<v Speaker 3>So maybe it's not wide receiver twelve, but I definitely

0:29:02.520 --> 0:29:04.200
<v Speaker 3>like him more than ending Gear Wilson.

0:29:04.760 --> 0:29:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to another receiver debate where you guys are

0:29:07.360 --> 0:29:10.080
<v Speaker 1>actually pretty aligned on one of these names and then

0:29:10.120 --> 0:29:14.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty far apart on the other. Courtland Sutton or Ceedee Lamb.

0:29:14.720 --> 0:29:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Fits will start with you, who do you prefer this week?

0:29:17.920 --> 0:29:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this could be a realistic decision for some people

0:29:21.000 --> 0:29:24.840
<v Speaker 2>with really good wide receiver corps going into the championship week.

0:29:24.920 --> 0:29:27.840
<v Speaker 2>So I've got Lamb wide receiver eight and Sutton wide

0:29:27.840 --> 0:29:31.640
<v Speaker 2>receiver fourteen. Maybe I am too high on Lamb. The

0:29:31.960 --> 0:29:34.440
<v Speaker 2>shoulder injury he's been playing with is kind of a concern.

0:29:34.560 --> 0:29:37.320
<v Speaker 2>He's been wincing in pain pretty much every time he

0:29:37.360 --> 0:29:40.800
<v Speaker 2>gets tackled, and Lamb is a tough matchup against the Eagles,

0:29:41.120 --> 0:29:43.720
<v Speaker 2>who held him to six catches for twenty one yards

0:29:43.720 --> 0:29:46.959
<v Speaker 2>back in Week ten. But I don't think I need

0:29:47.000 --> 0:29:49.560
<v Speaker 2>to make the case that Cede Lamb is a phenomenal

0:29:49.600 --> 0:29:53.840
<v Speaker 2>football player. He and Cooper Rush have been clicking lately.

0:29:54.240 --> 0:29:56.880
<v Speaker 2>Over his last three games, Lamb has twenty two catches

0:29:57.280 --> 0:30:00.160
<v Speaker 2>for three hundred and fourteen yards and two touchdowns ID

0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:03.200
<v Speaker 2>receiver seven in fantasy scoring over the last three weeks,

0:30:03.280 --> 0:30:07.240
<v Speaker 2>So no issues with Sutton only eighty two receiving yards

0:30:07.280 --> 0:30:09.240
<v Speaker 2>the last two weeks, but he's in a nice bounced

0:30:09.240 --> 0:30:11.800
<v Speaker 2>back spot and a potential shootout against the Bengals. I

0:30:11.880 --> 0:30:14.360
<v Speaker 2>just feel a little bit better about Lamb this week.

0:30:14.640 --> 0:30:15.840
<v Speaker 1>Ericson how do you see this one?

0:30:16.720 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 3>So I again like you said me and fits basically

0:30:19.720 --> 0:30:21.680
<v Speaker 3>have sutt in the same spot. I am just a

0:30:21.720 --> 0:30:25.440
<v Speaker 3>lower on Ceedee Lamb this week because look, a lot

0:30:25.480 --> 0:30:27.920
<v Speaker 3>of his MOX score stuff, like his upside is attached

0:30:27.920 --> 0:30:30.040
<v Speaker 3>to him catching a touchdown. Right last week he had

0:30:30.080 --> 0:30:32.160
<v Speaker 3>seven catches for one hundred and five yards a half

0:30:32.200 --> 0:30:34.920
<v Speaker 3>PPR HO was wide receiver twenty because he didn't score

0:30:34.920 --> 0:30:38.040
<v Speaker 3>a touchdown. He's playing with his shoulder injury. The Cowboys

0:30:38.040 --> 0:30:39.360
<v Speaker 3>are out of the playoffs, and I know that he's

0:30:39.400 --> 0:30:41.760
<v Speaker 3>a warrior, but he barely played in the second half

0:30:41.840 --> 0:30:44.080
<v Speaker 3>of last week's game. So what if he pulls up

0:30:44.120 --> 0:30:46.400
<v Speaker 3>on his shoulder. I'm out, coach, I can't play. Then

0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:49.040
<v Speaker 3>you're left holding a dud in You're liab like That's

0:30:49.040 --> 0:30:51.840
<v Speaker 3>what concerns me the most about Lamb because one kind

0:30:51.840 --> 0:30:53.520
<v Speaker 3>of tweak with this show is like coach, I can't

0:30:53.560 --> 0:30:55.840
<v Speaker 3>I can't go, and then you're left with a player

0:30:55.920 --> 0:30:58.080
<v Speaker 3>that doesn't score any Fantasy points for you, when you

0:30:58.080 --> 0:31:00.760
<v Speaker 3>could have started quoling Sutton and a magic it's the Bengals,

0:31:01.160 --> 0:31:03.200
<v Speaker 3>which is like, hey, this could be a shootout. So

0:31:03.280 --> 0:31:05.960
<v Speaker 3>it's been really consistent again down the last couple of weeks,

0:31:06.000 --> 0:31:08.320
<v Speaker 3>but if this is ever a matchup they need him in,

0:31:08.440 --> 0:31:10.160
<v Speaker 3>it's in a game where they're gonna be catching points

0:31:10.160 --> 0:31:12.200
<v Speaker 3>where boniks, sorry, bro, like you can't check the ball down,

0:31:12.200 --> 0:31:13.560
<v Speaker 3>and the running backs like you gotta throw the ball

0:31:13.600 --> 0:31:15.760
<v Speaker 3>down field because we're down by twenty one points, like

0:31:15.800 --> 0:31:18.520
<v Speaker 3>you gotta chuck it. So I think Sutton has a

0:31:18.560 --> 0:31:21.480
<v Speaker 3>much higher floor than Lamb does. And this has been

0:31:21.520 --> 0:31:23.760
<v Speaker 3>what I've been afraid about with Lamb, this entire seat,

0:31:23.840 --> 0:31:26.400
<v Speaker 3>like this, this whole Cooper Rush experience, where he's like

0:31:26.560 --> 0:31:28.320
<v Speaker 3>a lot of good matchups the last couple of weeks

0:31:28.480 --> 0:31:31.040
<v Speaker 3>against the Panthers, against the Buccaneers, but I kept looking

0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:33.320
<v Speaker 3>at that matchup weeks seventeen against the Eagles and me like,

0:31:33.520 --> 0:31:36.479
<v Speaker 3>this is where I'm terrified of playing Cooper Rush as

0:31:36.520 --> 0:31:39.040
<v Speaker 3>a streaming court like He's had a lot of better matchups,

0:31:39.040 --> 0:31:44.400
<v Speaker 3>which is reflected in Lamb's box score as well. Like Bengals, Panthers, Bucks, Giants,

0:31:44.440 --> 0:31:46.280
<v Speaker 3>like those are the teams that he's played the last

0:31:46.280 --> 0:31:48.600
<v Speaker 3>four weeks. Those are all good matchups for quarterbacks and

0:31:48.600 --> 0:31:52.560
<v Speaker 3>wide receivers at Philadelphia, and like Fitz said, we've already

0:31:52.560 --> 0:31:54.680
<v Speaker 3>seen this matchup play out and he had twenty one

0:31:54.720 --> 0:31:58.720
<v Speaker 3>receiving yards on six catches. So that really terrified. I

0:31:58.800 --> 0:32:01.600
<v Speaker 3>just can't. I don't confident with Lamb. I'm too afraid

0:32:01.600 --> 0:32:04.520
<v Speaker 3>of him totally dutting out and potentially taking himself out

0:32:04.520 --> 0:32:06.200
<v Speaker 3>of the game based on his shoulder injury that he's

0:32:06.200 --> 0:32:08.240
<v Speaker 3>been dealing with, which we saw last week where he

0:32:08.280 --> 0:32:10.920
<v Speaker 3>barely played in the second half. So I just feel

0:32:10.960 --> 0:32:12.840
<v Speaker 3>so much better about the combination with Sutton and his

0:32:12.880 --> 0:32:15.160
<v Speaker 3>floor just quickly.

0:32:15.360 --> 0:32:18.440
<v Speaker 1>I want to ask on Sutton just because he's also

0:32:18.440 --> 0:32:20.840
<v Speaker 1>back to back in ECR with Tyreek Hill, another guy

0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:22.760
<v Speaker 1>who was a first round picking a lot of drafts

0:32:22.800 --> 0:32:24.880
<v Speaker 1>that I think this is a very realistic decision somebody

0:32:24.880 --> 0:32:27.280
<v Speaker 1>would have to make. Fits would you rather just quickly

0:32:27.440 --> 0:32:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Tyreek Hill or Courtland Sutton this week Tyreek Hill.

0:32:31.160 --> 0:32:33.120
<v Speaker 2>They're back to back for me and my rankings. But

0:32:34.200 --> 0:32:37.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, like Sudden, we have seen some floor games

0:32:37.360 --> 0:32:41.320
<v Speaker 2>for Sutton too the last two weeks. That mysterious zero

0:32:41.440 --> 0:32:45.240
<v Speaker 2>target game against New Orleans back in mid season where

0:32:45.240 --> 0:32:48.080
<v Speaker 2>he got no targets, no catches on a Thursday night.

0:32:49.240 --> 0:32:53.040
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I mean I do feel generally good about Sutton,

0:32:53.120 --> 0:32:58.240
<v Speaker 2>but we have seen the occasional inexplicable disappearance from him.

0:32:58.640 --> 0:33:00.520
<v Speaker 1>He hasn't been high on the wide Receiver twenty four

0:33:00.640 --> 0:33:03.800
<v Speaker 1>since week twelve. For whatever it's worth, croon Sutton. There

0:33:03.840 --> 0:33:05.760
<v Speaker 1>was a bye week in there. Of course, Eric's entire

0:33:05.880 --> 0:33:06.800
<v Speaker 1>killer quotone Sutton.

0:33:08.360 --> 0:33:10.600
<v Speaker 3>If Jayal then wall doesn't play, gotta play diaryk kill

0:33:10.920 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 3>like he just he's too involved, especially when Wall doesn't

0:33:13.200 --> 0:33:16.080
<v Speaker 3>play and Walla hasn't been practicing. So yeah, probably help

0:33:16.080 --> 0:33:16.320
<v Speaker 3>for me.

0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:18.360

0:33:49.480 --> 0:33:52.960
<v Speaker 1>rapid Fire start sit decisions here another running back question

0:33:53.480 --> 0:33:56.440
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to. It's almost the twenty twenty four season

0:33:56.520 --> 0:34:00.560
<v Speaker 1>memorial rapid Fire question because these guys appeared pretty much

0:34:00.600 --> 0:34:03.120
<v Speaker 1>every week. They were constant headaches. Is it to decide

0:34:03.120 --> 0:34:04.680
<v Speaker 1>if we're starting then or not? So I'm gonna put

0:34:04.720 --> 0:34:08.320
<v Speaker 1>him against each other, Tank Bigsby or Javante Williams ericson

0:34:08.440 --> 0:34:09.560
<v Speaker 1>who do you got?

0:34:09.840 --> 0:34:11.879
<v Speaker 3>You know, when I called traps et in touchdown last week,

0:34:11.880 --> 0:34:14.320
<v Speaker 3>I knew that Tank Bigsby was definitely gonna score instead,

0:34:14.920 --> 0:34:17.680
<v Speaker 3>and that's exactly what happened. So I'm going with the

0:34:17.719 --> 0:34:21.080
<v Speaker 3>Tank man. I would rather, you know, try to figure

0:34:21.080 --> 0:34:23.480
<v Speaker 3>out a two man backfield between Tank and Travis Etn

0:34:23.560 --> 0:34:25.719
<v Speaker 3>versus a three man because now that Julia mcglofflin is

0:34:25.760 --> 0:34:29.919
<v Speaker 3>practicing in full, I want no part of this Broncos backfield. Again,

0:34:29.960 --> 0:34:32.400
<v Speaker 3>both guys have I think good matchups. The Titans run defense.

0:34:32.440 --> 0:34:35.120
<v Speaker 3>We've seen get truck sticked over the last month or so,

0:34:35.200 --> 0:34:37.800
<v Speaker 3>and that includes a matchup against the same Jaguars where

0:34:38.120 --> 0:34:40.880
<v Speaker 3>Jacksonville really leaned on Tank Bigsby eighteen carriage for fifty

0:34:40.880 --> 0:34:43.960
<v Speaker 3>five yards. So this is a matchup that Jacksonville knows, Hey,

0:34:44.200 --> 0:34:46.239
<v Speaker 3>we can run the ball here with Tank Bigsby kind

0:34:46.239 --> 0:34:49.359
<v Speaker 3>of leaving the charge, whereas Denver, I mean, Sean Payne

0:34:49.360 --> 0:34:51.120
<v Speaker 3>doesn't probably know what he's gonna be doing yet, Like

0:34:51.160 --> 0:34:53.440
<v Speaker 3>he talked up estimate. Yeah, he's done that before and

0:34:53.480 --> 0:34:55.640
<v Speaker 3>I fell for it before and it didn't work. So

0:34:55.880 --> 0:34:57.640
<v Speaker 3>I'm just gonna roll with Tank Biggsby. That's the guy

0:34:57.640 --> 0:35:00.400
<v Speaker 3>I feel most confident about. Again, a lot of biguous

0:35:00.480 --> 0:35:04.000
<v Speaker 3>backfields here, even in Week seventeen, of course, but I'm

0:35:04.000 --> 0:35:07.080
<v Speaker 3>going to roll out the role out the tank here fits.

0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:10.640
<v Speaker 2>So as of now, I've got Javante ranked slightly higher

0:35:10.680 --> 0:35:14.879
<v Speaker 2>than Tank, but if Julia McLoughlin does play, I will

0:35:14.920 --> 0:35:18.560
<v Speaker 2>probably wind up having Tank ranked slightly higher. Granted, they

0:35:18.560 --> 0:35:20.800
<v Speaker 2>are both going to be low end running back twos,

0:35:21.320 --> 0:35:24.080
<v Speaker 2>and I would kind of dread having to start either

0:35:24.120 --> 0:35:27.239
<v Speaker 2>of these guys, But at least we can say about

0:35:27.280 --> 0:35:30.040
<v Speaker 2>Bigsby that he has had double digit targets in three

0:35:30.080 --> 0:35:33.840
<v Speaker 2>straight games, and he's a matchup against a Tennessee Titans

0:35:33.880 --> 0:35:37.240
<v Speaker 2>defense that let Jonathan Taylor run for approximately seven hundred

0:35:37.280 --> 0:35:41.399
<v Speaker 2>yards last week. So yeah, I mean, I can only

0:35:41.480 --> 0:35:45.000
<v Speaker 2>generate so much enthusiasm for a running back who splits

0:35:45.040 --> 0:35:48.839
<v Speaker 2>work in a mediocre offense and doesn't catch passes. But

0:35:49.040 --> 0:35:51.680
<v Speaker 2>I still think I'll be a little bit more enthusiastic

0:35:51.800 --> 0:35:55.120
<v Speaker 2>for Tank Bigsby than I would for Javonte Williams in

0:35:55.160 --> 0:35:59.400
<v Speaker 2>a three headed backfield that's been wildly unpredictable all season.

0:36:00.760 --> 0:36:03.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's say a wide receiver debate here, how about Jordan

0:36:03.760 --> 0:36:06.399
<v Speaker 1>Addison or Calvin Ridley fits sticking with you.

0:36:06.600 --> 0:36:09.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, I have no issues with Addison. I have

0:36:09.719 --> 0:36:12.520
<v Speaker 2>him right on the wide receiver two wide receiver three

0:36:12.560 --> 0:36:15.839
<v Speaker 2>border wide receiver twenty five is where I have him

0:36:15.920 --> 0:36:18.040
<v Speaker 2>ranked terrific player. But there are just going to be

0:36:18.040 --> 0:36:21.920
<v Speaker 2>weeks where you get a Justin Jefferson week, and we

0:36:21.960 --> 0:36:25.920
<v Speaker 2>saw that last week. Addison had only thirty five receiving yards,

0:36:25.960 --> 0:36:28.520
<v Speaker 2>but he did score a touchdown to sort of bail

0:36:28.560 --> 0:36:31.279
<v Speaker 2>out his fantasy managers. But I want to capitalize on

0:36:31.320 --> 0:36:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Ridley's matchup against the Jaguars, who have allowed the fourth

0:36:34.520 --> 0:36:38.160
<v Speaker 2>most receiving yards to receivers and the fifth most fantasy

0:36:38.200 --> 0:36:41.120
<v Speaker 2>points to wide receivers. Ridley had just sort of an

0:36:41.160 --> 0:36:44.360
<v Speaker 2>okay game against the Jaguars a few weeks ago, seven

0:36:44.440 --> 0:36:47.480
<v Speaker 2>catches for fifty nine yards, but he did have twelve targets,

0:36:47.760 --> 0:36:51.040
<v Speaker 2>his second highest target total of the season. Just no

0:36:51.080 --> 0:36:53.960
<v Speaker 2>reason to think he won't be the number one target

0:36:54.239 --> 0:36:58.120
<v Speaker 2>for Mason Rudolph this week against the Jaguars. I think

0:36:58.160 --> 0:37:00.880
<v Speaker 2>they're smash potential for Calvin Ridley this week.

0:37:01.800 --> 0:37:02.839
<v Speaker 1>Erickson, how do you see it?

0:37:03.600 --> 0:37:06.400
<v Speaker 3>I think that both guys are are good like wide receiver,

0:37:06.920 --> 0:37:09.200
<v Speaker 3>three flex plays this week. I think you see upside

0:37:09.200 --> 0:37:12.480
<v Speaker 3>cases with both of them. I still lean with Addison

0:37:12.600 --> 0:37:16.080
<v Speaker 3>just because I mean, even with that, even with Jefferson,

0:37:16.120 --> 0:37:19.120
<v Speaker 3>with Hawkinson, like the guy's been just on fire like

0:37:19.200 --> 0:37:20.880
<v Speaker 3>every single week. It seems like, even like last week,

0:37:20.880 --> 0:37:22.920
<v Speaker 3>when it's like a Jefferson game, he still puts up

0:37:23.239 --> 0:37:25.799
<v Speaker 3>a decent stat line where you're not, oh man, he

0:37:25.880 --> 0:37:28.040
<v Speaker 3>just killed me. Five catches thirty five yards, but he

0:37:28.080 --> 0:37:30.080
<v Speaker 3>scores touchdown right, So like he still like gets it

0:37:30.120 --> 0:37:32.799
<v Speaker 3>done for you even when it's not his game. And

0:37:32.840 --> 0:37:36.200
<v Speaker 3>I look at this matchup Green Bay Minnesota, Okay, like

0:37:36.239 --> 0:37:38.239
<v Speaker 3>I like a lot of these offenses here, Like we

0:37:38.280 --> 0:37:41.680
<v Speaker 3>know Minnesota unlocks like kind of some shootout potential with

0:37:41.760 --> 0:37:43.840
<v Speaker 3>the opposing quarterback though the Green Patty. But Packers have

0:37:43.880 --> 0:37:46.719
<v Speaker 3>really not had to force Jordan Love to throw and

0:37:46.800 --> 0:37:48.520
<v Speaker 3>a lot of their past matchups because it's been facing

0:37:48.520 --> 0:37:51.799
<v Speaker 3>really soft defenses in terms of against the run. Well,

0:37:51.800 --> 0:37:53.239
<v Speaker 3>this is a matchup where you could actually see more

0:37:53.280 --> 0:37:55.120
<v Speaker 3>projected volume from Jordan Love, so maybe it's a little

0:37:55.120 --> 0:37:57.160
<v Speaker 3>bit more back and forth. Again, this is a rematch

0:37:57.200 --> 0:37:59.960
<v Speaker 3>from week four where Jordan Addison was the wide receiver

0:38:00.200 --> 0:38:02.400
<v Speaker 3>four on the week and half PPR, so we already

0:38:02.400 --> 0:38:04.880
<v Speaker 3>has a top five finish against the same Packers defense.

0:38:05.320 --> 0:38:08.120
<v Speaker 3>So I think I still like Addison. And the only

0:38:08.160 --> 0:38:11.400
<v Speaker 3>thing I'll push back about with Ridley is, well, the

0:38:11.440 --> 0:38:13.520
<v Speaker 3>last two weeks with Mason Rudolph, it's been Chicka koon

0:38:13.560 --> 0:38:15.560
<v Speaker 3>koa like he has been the number one target in

0:38:15.560 --> 0:38:17.560
<v Speaker 3>this offense when it comes to total volume, and it

0:38:17.600 --> 0:38:19.239
<v Speaker 3>seems like him and Mason Rudolf are kind of clicking

0:38:19.280 --> 0:38:22.439
<v Speaker 3>a little bit. And Jaguars yes, bad against receivers, also

0:38:22.520 --> 0:38:25.680
<v Speaker 3>very bad against tight ends. So again, Ridley has just

0:38:25.719 --> 0:38:28.560
<v Speaker 3>been so inconsistent this year, where I think I do

0:38:28.600 --> 0:38:30.400
<v Speaker 3>feel a little bit more about Addison, but I do

0:38:30.440 --> 0:38:32.720
<v Speaker 3>think that in most cases you were trying to start

0:38:32.760 --> 0:38:35.759
<v Speaker 3>both of these players. Again, Ridley still inside my top

0:38:35.760 --> 0:38:39.640
<v Speaker 3>thirty's still very much in startable range. But Addison, I

0:38:39.719 --> 0:38:41.959
<v Speaker 3>just think his body worked this year. I've been more.

0:38:42.120 --> 0:38:44.880
<v Speaker 3>I feel more confident with Sam Darnold, AZ's quarterback and

0:38:44.960 --> 0:38:47.400
<v Speaker 3>maybe a game script environment I like a little bit

0:38:47.440 --> 0:38:50.279
<v Speaker 3>more than Jaggs Titans, which is the he epited me

0:38:50.320 --> 0:38:52.520
<v Speaker 3>of Thursday night football being played on a Sunday.

0:38:53.000 --> 0:38:57.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let's do some flex plays here ericson how about

0:38:57.360 --> 0:38:59.839
<v Speaker 1>Jacoby Myers or Remandre Stevenson.

0:39:00.520 --> 0:39:03.640
<v Speaker 3>I like Jacoby here. I get that Meyers is coming

0:39:03.640 --> 0:39:06.399
<v Speaker 3>off a down game, but for the most part he's

0:39:06.440 --> 0:39:09.360
<v Speaker 3>been a pretty strong play with Aidan O'Connell or just

0:39:09.760 --> 0:39:11.520
<v Speaker 3>not named desbon Rider as a quarterback for the Las

0:39:11.600 --> 0:39:14.200
<v Speaker 3>Vegas Raiders this season, it's playing the New Orleans Saints.

0:39:14.239 --> 0:39:15.839
<v Speaker 3>They're playing in a dome, so you're not worried about

0:39:15.840 --> 0:39:19.839
<v Speaker 3>any type of weather conditions. So I like Myers and

0:39:19.840 --> 0:39:22.600
<v Speaker 3>and Remandre is it's just the boom bust potential with

0:39:22.680 --> 0:39:25.480
<v Speaker 3>him right. The Chargers are defense that don't stack the box,

0:39:25.560 --> 0:39:27.920
<v Speaker 3>but does that matter when it comes to well Stevenson

0:39:27.960 --> 0:39:29.839
<v Speaker 3>puts the ball on the ground again, like you're left

0:39:29.840 --> 0:39:32.960
<v Speaker 3>hold in the bag. Because it's really it's really annoying

0:39:33.000 --> 0:39:35.800
<v Speaker 3>drodmeo that Stevenson keeps fumbling, and it's one thing to

0:39:35.800 --> 0:39:38.359
<v Speaker 3>point that out because Antnio Gibson also fumbles too, So

0:39:38.920 --> 0:39:41.279
<v Speaker 3>it's it's very hard to project what this backfit's going

0:39:41.360 --> 0:39:44.719
<v Speaker 3>to look like because both running backs have the propensity

0:39:44.760 --> 0:39:46.760
<v Speaker 3>to put the ball on the ground and on the turf,

0:39:47.000 --> 0:39:51.960
<v Speaker 3>which is really concerning. I am Romandre is definitely a

0:39:52.600 --> 0:39:54.279
<v Speaker 3>tough guy to look at because I think that if

0:39:54.280 --> 0:39:55.799
<v Speaker 3>you had picked the different receiver, I think I would

0:39:55.840 --> 0:39:57.919
<v Speaker 3>have gone in Romandre's direction, maybe someone that I've ranked

0:39:57.920 --> 0:40:01.359
<v Speaker 3>a little bit lower, but Myers particular, like what he

0:40:01.440 --> 0:40:03.480
<v Speaker 3>offers to the table, I think I feel better about

0:40:03.480 --> 0:40:08.120
<v Speaker 3>his floor. Whereas Stevenson, He's had some ceiling games here

0:40:08.160 --> 0:40:11.200
<v Speaker 3>and there, but if he doesn't score, like I'm just

0:40:11.280 --> 0:40:13.839
<v Speaker 3>not as confident about his roleman. Like I said, if

0:40:13.840 --> 0:40:16.759
<v Speaker 3>he if he fumbles again, it's it's it's over. It's over,

0:40:17.080 --> 0:40:19.600
<v Speaker 3>Like he's going on the bench, and you better believe

0:40:19.640 --> 0:40:22.439
<v Speaker 3>like Harbaugh knows, like, hey, this guy's had a fumbling issue.

0:40:22.440 --> 0:40:24.439
<v Speaker 3>He's coaching up his guys like, hey, get the ball

0:40:24.480 --> 0:40:26.239
<v Speaker 3>from Stevenson like and then he's going to be out

0:40:26.280 --> 0:40:28.800
<v Speaker 3>of the game. So Myers to me, even though he

0:40:28.800 --> 0:40:31.200
<v Speaker 3>had a down week last week, he's been very consistent

0:40:31.239 --> 0:40:33.480
<v Speaker 3>for the most part. So I like Myers, you said you.

0:40:33.440 --> 0:40:35.440
<v Speaker 1>Might have gone in a different direction if you if

0:40:35.480 --> 0:40:37.279
<v Speaker 1>it was a different receiver. Do any receivers come to

0:40:37.360 --> 0:40:40.560
<v Speaker 1>mind that you would highlight that you would have taken

0:40:40.680 --> 0:40:43.359
<v Speaker 1>Rimandre over. Uh.

0:40:43.480 --> 0:40:47.080
<v Speaker 3>Probably if you listen to any cult receivers, probably been like,

0:40:47.120 --> 0:40:50.600
<v Speaker 3>that's easy, I'll take I'll take Romandre over the cult receivers.

0:40:51.760 --> 0:40:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Jaden Reid.

0:40:54.560 --> 0:40:57.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that yeah, only I got only if like Christian

0:40:57.600 --> 0:40:59.560
<v Speaker 3>Watson doesn't play, But I don't even know man, Like

0:41:00.040 --> 0:41:04.279
<v Speaker 3>they just feed Wicks every time Watson missus games. So yeah,

0:41:04.320 --> 0:41:06.000
<v Speaker 3>I think ramondre probably over Jayan Reid.

0:41:06.040 --> 0:41:09.080
<v Speaker 2>Two Wicks did have a big game the last time

0:41:09.120 --> 0:41:10.160
<v Speaker 2>they played the Vikings.

0:41:11.800 --> 0:41:15.040
<v Speaker 1>Fitzy, do you like better between Rimandre and Jacoby Myers?

0:41:15.400 --> 0:41:19.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm with Ericsson here, I would prefer Jacoby. I know

0:41:19.160 --> 0:41:21.840
<v Speaker 2>he had the bad game last week, but it was

0:41:21.920 --> 0:41:24.200
<v Speaker 2>kind of an anomaly. He only had five targets. That

0:41:24.320 --> 0:41:28.239
<v Speaker 2>was his lowest target total since Week two. He has

0:41:28.280 --> 0:41:30.880
<v Speaker 2>had at least nine targets in all but three of

0:41:30.920 --> 0:41:35.239
<v Speaker 2>his last eleven games. So the volume is usually their

0:41:35.480 --> 0:41:39.680
<v Speaker 2>target volume catch volume for Jacoby, and the Saints like

0:41:39.920 --> 0:41:42.839
<v Speaker 2>don't have a good cornerback on their roster, Like, this

0:41:42.880 --> 0:41:46.160
<v Speaker 2>is not a matchup to be feared at all. Ramandre

0:41:46.239 --> 0:41:48.239
<v Speaker 2>ceiling is just so low these days. He has not

0:41:48.320 --> 0:41:50.319
<v Speaker 2>had more than seventy four rushing yards in a game

0:41:50.360 --> 0:41:54.839
<v Speaker 2>since early October. His last touchdown well, no, he had

0:41:54.880 --> 0:41:56.799
<v Speaker 2>a touchdown last week, but that was his first one

0:41:56.840 --> 0:42:00.759
<v Speaker 2>since early November. Not catching many pass these days. And

0:42:00.800 --> 0:42:04.239
<v Speaker 2>then you know all this is without even mentioning the

0:42:04.280 --> 0:42:07.560
<v Speaker 2>fumble problem and the matchup against the Chargers. I mean

0:42:07.560 --> 0:42:10.600
<v Speaker 2>they've allowed the seventh fewest fantasy points to running backs. Yeah,

0:42:10.640 --> 0:42:12.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm all about Jacobe here.

0:42:13.120 --> 0:42:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to actually one that has one of those

0:42:15.600 --> 0:42:20.560
<v Speaker 1>Colts receivers in this question. Ericson Josh Downs or Patrick Taylor,

0:42:20.600 --> 0:42:22.759
<v Speaker 1>who a lot of people were excited about last week

0:42:22.760 --> 0:42:25.759
<v Speaker 1>as just the next in line for the forty nine ers,

0:42:25.800 --> 0:42:28.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, running back factory, plug right in and kind

0:42:28.880 --> 0:42:31.360
<v Speaker 1>of get the goal line work and YadA, YadA, YadA.

0:42:31.400 --> 0:42:33.880
<v Speaker 1>Didn't do anything. Just a couple of points, you know,

0:42:34.000 --> 0:42:35.520
<v Speaker 1>hurt me in a couple of leagues. So would you

0:42:35.600 --> 0:42:38.040
<v Speaker 1>rather go back to the law with Taylor or start

0:42:38.120 --> 0:42:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Josh downs this week?

0:42:40.320 --> 0:42:42.560
<v Speaker 3>I would go back to Patrick Taylor. I know that

0:42:42.600 --> 0:42:44.160
<v Speaker 3>we got to make sure that Isac Grendall is up playing.

0:42:44.160 --> 0:42:45.839
<v Speaker 3>They're playing on Monday night, so it's a little bit

0:42:45.880 --> 0:42:47.719
<v Speaker 3>more of a you got to kind of wait it

0:42:47.760 --> 0:42:49.799
<v Speaker 3>out here to see if because you need Taylor within

0:42:49.800 --> 0:42:51.160
<v Speaker 3>that role, because I mean, I don't think the role

0:42:51.200 --> 0:42:53.200
<v Speaker 3>was that terrible. Like he had goal line opportunity, he

0:42:53.239 --> 0:42:55.400
<v Speaker 3>had some red zone opportunities, just didn't cash them in.

0:42:55.880 --> 0:42:57.960
<v Speaker 3>But he still played eighty percent of the snaps, right,

0:42:58.040 --> 0:43:00.279
<v Speaker 3>So it should be a game where the four Narro's

0:43:00.280 --> 0:43:03.080
<v Speaker 3>offense can put up points. And I just I mean

0:43:03.120 --> 0:43:05.799
<v Speaker 3>these Colts receivers. Yes, the Giants defense, as I talked

0:43:05.800 --> 0:43:08.040
<v Speaker 3>about on the Prediction Show, like the thing that they're

0:43:08.040 --> 0:43:11.239
<v Speaker 3>worse about is defending the deep ball. I mean, you

0:43:11.280 --> 0:43:13.440
<v Speaker 3>got a twenty five percent chance of projecting which coult

0:43:13.480 --> 0:43:15.720
<v Speaker 3>receiver catch the deep pass I'm interested in right Tokoby

0:43:15.760 --> 0:43:18.520
<v Speaker 3>Pierce could be, Mitchell could be, Pittman could be. Downs

0:43:18.719 --> 0:43:20.960
<v Speaker 3>Like Down's probably the best odds of just seeing the

0:43:21.000 --> 0:43:23.600
<v Speaker 3>most targets. But last week Cove, He's scored a long

0:43:23.640 --> 0:43:26.480
<v Speaker 3>touchdown to two weeks in a row. That's something I

0:43:26.520 --> 0:43:29.120
<v Speaker 3>don't like betting on necessarily. With Taylor, I feel much

0:43:29.200 --> 0:43:31.279
<v Speaker 3>better about his workload. Again, the forty Niner's office is

0:43:31.280 --> 0:43:34.000
<v Speaker 3>going to score points against Detroit, and I think Taylor

0:43:34.000 --> 0:43:35.839
<v Speaker 3>can benefit. And if he'd scored a touchdown last week,

0:43:35.840 --> 0:43:38.520
<v Speaker 3>we wouldn't be a down on him. I don't think so.

0:43:38.800 --> 0:43:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Taylor for me, could he like fits?

0:43:42.520 --> 0:43:48.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Taylor if he is the guy. But I will

0:43:48.280 --> 0:43:51.479
<v Speaker 2>have whoever is the lead running back for the forty

0:43:51.600 --> 0:43:54.920
<v Speaker 2>nine ers, whether it's Isaac Garrende or Patrick Taylor Junior,

0:43:55.000 --> 0:43:58.879
<v Speaker 2>ranked probably ahead of Downs in the flex ranking. I'm

0:43:58.880 --> 0:44:01.759
<v Speaker 2>gonna have the lead forty nine ers back ranked as

0:44:01.760 --> 0:44:04.759
<v Speaker 2>a mid range wide running back three. And I don't

0:44:04.800 --> 0:44:08.040
<v Speaker 2>have any Indianapolis pass catcher rank inside the top forty

0:44:08.200 --> 0:44:11.040
<v Speaker 2>at wide receiver. I just I don't want to start

0:44:11.080 --> 0:44:14.160
<v Speaker 2>any Colts receiver at all with Anthony Richardson. And I

0:44:14.320 --> 0:44:16.720
<v Speaker 2>like Anthony Richardson, but I like him more first running

0:44:16.760 --> 0:44:19.840
<v Speaker 2>than first passing. So give me the forty nine ers

0:44:19.920 --> 0:44:20.960
<v Speaker 2>running back, whoever it is.

0:44:21.960 --> 0:44:25.360
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to Jamison Williams big touchdown last week or

0:44:25.440 --> 0:44:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Taja Spears fits.

0:44:26.960 --> 0:44:29.759
<v Speaker 2>I'll start with you on this one conditional. I would

0:44:29.800 --> 0:44:34.160
<v Speaker 2>play Jamison Williams if Tony Pollard plays for the Titans,

0:44:34.680 --> 0:44:37.279
<v Speaker 2>I would play Jamo over Spears, but I would start

0:44:37.360 --> 0:44:40.360
<v Speaker 2>Spears if Pollard is out for this game. I do

0:44:40.520 --> 0:44:43.719
<v Speaker 2>think Spears is playable even if Pollard does play, and

0:44:43.840 --> 0:44:46.200
<v Speaker 2>in fact, I will be using Spears in a flex

0:44:46.239 --> 0:44:51.800
<v Speaker 2>spot in one of my championship games. Yeah, Jamo is

0:44:51.920 --> 0:44:57.000
<v Speaker 2>just he's a little boom or bust every week. But

0:44:57.239 --> 0:45:01.880
<v Speaker 2>like Spears, if he's getting a majority share of touches

0:45:01.920 --> 0:45:04.719
<v Speaker 2>in that backfield, like I absolutely want him over the

0:45:05.120 --> 0:45:08.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, hit or miss Jamison Williams, But you know,

0:45:08.680 --> 0:45:10.799
<v Speaker 2>Spears is gonna be pretty hit or met him hit

0:45:10.960 --> 0:45:13.480
<v Speaker 2>or miss himself if he's sharing the backfield with Pollard

0:45:13.520 --> 0:45:13.879
<v Speaker 2>this week.

0:45:14.360 --> 0:45:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Erickson, Yeah, I agree with it.

0:45:17.160 --> 0:45:20.239
<v Speaker 3>It's tough, Like you really wish that pauld just wouldn't play,

0:45:20.280 --> 0:45:22.360
<v Speaker 3>so we could just play Spears because we know that

0:45:22.480 --> 0:45:25.239
<v Speaker 3>he's like set up really well. But Pollard doesn't ever

0:45:25.280 --> 0:45:27.799
<v Speaker 3>practice and he always plays right, so it's like every

0:45:27.840 --> 0:45:30.520
<v Speaker 3>single he's DNP D and p DNP it doesn't matter

0:45:30.560 --> 0:45:33.239
<v Speaker 3>because he always has a playing and then we don't

0:45:33.239 --> 0:45:35.080
<v Speaker 3>always get a healthy Tony Pollard though, like last week

0:45:35.120 --> 0:45:36.600
<v Speaker 3>he was like dealing with the ankle thing and then

0:45:36.600 --> 0:45:38.400
<v Speaker 3>you saw Spears get the goal line touches, so that's

0:45:38.440 --> 0:45:41.279
<v Speaker 3>like super frustrating, but we can't I mean, I don't

0:45:41.320 --> 0:45:43.480
<v Speaker 3>have the confidence too, like, oh well, even if they're

0:45:43.480 --> 0:45:46.319
<v Speaker 3>both active, I'm gonna rank Spears ahead of Pollard because well,

0:45:46.320 --> 0:45:48.640
<v Speaker 3>I think that he's the healthier back, because I don't

0:45:48.960 --> 0:45:52.080
<v Speaker 3>know that right, And we look at Pollard in his contract.

0:45:52.080 --> 0:45:54.120
<v Speaker 3>He has a bunch of contract incentives that he wants

0:45:54.200 --> 0:45:56.520
<v Speaker 3>to hit to get a bigger payout. And there's two

0:45:56.560 --> 0:45:58.439
<v Speaker 3>weeks left in the season. Obviously the Titans aren't playing

0:45:58.440 --> 0:46:00.680
<v Speaker 3>for anything, but Pollard is playing for money and the

0:46:00.760 --> 0:46:03.000
<v Speaker 3>coaches know that too, so I think he's gonna try

0:46:03.040 --> 0:46:06.120
<v Speaker 3>to get onto the field and play, and I think

0:46:06.160 --> 0:46:08.239
<v Speaker 3>that unfortunately makes it just tough to push the button

0:46:08.320 --> 0:46:10.759
<v Speaker 3>on Spears, because yes, Spears got the touchdowns last week.

0:46:11.040 --> 0:46:12.440
<v Speaker 3>Well what it goes to Paular this week and then

0:46:12.480 --> 0:46:14.440
<v Speaker 3>you're kind of hold in the bag. Whereas Jamo, I

0:46:14.520 --> 0:46:16.080
<v Speaker 3>mean we saw last week. I mean the upside he

0:46:16.120 --> 0:46:18.680
<v Speaker 3>can deliver on one play like with his explosiveness, and

0:46:18.719 --> 0:46:20.640
<v Speaker 3>the four nine ers defense has not been nearly as

0:46:20.719 --> 0:46:23.839
<v Speaker 3>good as it's been years past. Again this Detroit again,

0:46:23.880 --> 0:46:25.520
<v Speaker 3>I was so wrong about Detroit last week and play

0:46:25.520 --> 0:46:27.360
<v Speaker 3>all this game is gonna go under. It's like never again.

0:46:27.600 --> 0:46:29.440
<v Speaker 3>All the overs is the Detroit Lions. I'm not I'm

0:46:29.480 --> 0:46:31.560
<v Speaker 3>not looking to fade. I get they're playing outdoors, but

0:46:31.880 --> 0:46:33.799
<v Speaker 3>San Francisco, as long as we're not getting another mon

0:46:33.920 --> 0:46:36.439
<v Speaker 3>soon like that Thursday night games like please check the weather,

0:46:37.360 --> 0:46:40.840
<v Speaker 3>it should be fine temperatures for this Detroit Lions offense

0:46:40.880 --> 0:46:43.560
<v Speaker 3>to to coke here. So I like Jamo again. Jamo

0:46:43.640 --> 0:46:44.920
<v Speaker 3>could be the guy that you need on a Monday

0:46:45.000 --> 0:46:47.879
<v Speaker 3>night that wins your championship, right like him down by twenty,

0:46:48.040 --> 0:46:50.080
<v Speaker 3>Like you got Jamo. Yeah, he pops off a big

0:46:50.120 --> 0:46:52.120
<v Speaker 3>play and like you're celebrating, you're popping the champagne with

0:46:52.520 --> 0:46:55.759
<v Speaker 3>Jameson Williams because he got your championships. So for the

0:46:55.880 --> 0:46:57.600
<v Speaker 3>fun element of it, you gotta go.

0:46:57.719 --> 0:47:02.319
<v Speaker 1>Jamo fits If you go into Monday Night down let's

0:47:02.320 --> 0:47:06.000
<v Speaker 1>say twelve and a half points, and you have Jamison

0:47:06.000 --> 0:47:10.279
<v Speaker 1>Williams left and your opponent has nobody. Are you feeling good?

0:47:10.400 --> 0:47:12.600
<v Speaker 3>Are you feeling are you already buying the champagne?

0:47:12.800 --> 0:47:17.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Yeah, I'm not buying the champagne. But as Ericson said,

0:47:17.280 --> 0:47:20.120
<v Speaker 2>if I have one guy, like if Jamo gets you know,

0:47:20.520 --> 0:47:23.200
<v Speaker 2>two catches for thirty yards whatever, it was going to

0:47:23.239 --> 0:47:26.920
<v Speaker 2>be a tough mountain to climb regardless. But that is

0:47:27.000 --> 0:47:29.560
<v Speaker 2>the kind of player I want in a situation like that,

0:47:29.680 --> 0:47:32.719
<v Speaker 2>a guy who can basically cut that lead down to

0:47:32.840 --> 0:47:34.600
<v Speaker 2>size with one play. Yea, yeah?

0:47:34.640 --> 0:47:35.920
<v Speaker 3>Like you are you? Like you gotta look at the

0:47:35.960 --> 0:47:38.399
<v Speaker 3>other side, Like if you're facing James Moms and you're

0:47:38.480 --> 0:47:40.920
<v Speaker 3>up by twelve, Like, how do you feel like like

0:47:41.239 --> 0:47:41.800
<v Speaker 3>I'd be not?

0:47:42.760 --> 0:47:46.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, you are feeling terrified. Before we move on

0:47:46.920 --> 0:47:48.360
<v Speaker 2>to the next one, where can I just make the

0:47:48.640 --> 0:47:50.960
<v Speaker 2>point that, like ty J. Spears was a big miss

0:47:51.600 --> 0:47:54.320
<v Speaker 2>for a lot of analyst preseason, and I had Spears

0:47:54.400 --> 0:47:57.520
<v Speaker 2>and Pollard ranked like basically next to each other, and

0:47:57.719 --> 0:47:59.360
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was going to be a split backfield,

0:47:59.400 --> 0:48:01.560
<v Speaker 2>and that was kind kind of what Callahan was hinting

0:48:01.640 --> 0:48:05.759
<v Speaker 2>at in August. But like, Spears has looked terrific the

0:48:05.880 --> 0:48:08.440
<v Speaker 2>last couple of weeks, he has looked really good, Like

0:48:09.360 --> 0:48:11.640
<v Speaker 2>we should not forget that this guy is actually a

0:48:11.880 --> 0:48:15.320
<v Speaker 2>really good running back. And just there is this like

0:48:15.520 --> 0:48:17.920
<v Speaker 2>crackle of electricity in the air when that guy has

0:48:17.960 --> 0:48:21.440
<v Speaker 2>the ball in his hands. And like I am, I

0:48:21.600 --> 0:48:24.279
<v Speaker 2>want to be above consensus on him in my twenty

0:48:24.360 --> 0:48:26.680
<v Speaker 2>twenty five rankings, and I want to get him on

0:48:26.719 --> 0:48:29.279
<v Speaker 2>a few teams, even if he is penciled in to

0:48:29.360 --> 0:48:32.520
<v Speaker 2>be the number two back again behind someone else, because

0:48:32.640 --> 0:48:35.920
<v Speaker 2>like I think he's really good. I just like I

0:48:36.000 --> 0:48:37.279
<v Speaker 2>want to be invested in tay J.

0:48:37.480 --> 0:48:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Spears next year, maybe next year's version of how this

0:48:41.040 --> 0:48:43.960
<v Speaker 1>year you were all over Chase Brown technically kind of

0:48:44.000 --> 0:48:47.400
<v Speaker 1>looking like second backfield, you know, second guy in the backfield,

0:48:47.760 --> 0:48:50.680
<v Speaker 1>but you just believed in the talent. I just whenever

0:48:50.760 --> 0:48:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I stare at the draft screen and ty J. Spears

0:48:54.040 --> 0:48:57.840
<v Speaker 1>is there, I just cannot not think about the report

0:48:57.920 --> 0:49:01.000
<v Speaker 1>on draft night about him basically like not having one

0:49:01.040 --> 0:49:03.799
<v Speaker 1>of his knees, like all the ligaments and everything, and well,

0:49:03.840 --> 0:49:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I forget the specifics of the medical whatever it is,

0:49:06.080 --> 0:49:08.560
<v Speaker 1>but like, I just can't not think about that whatever.

0:49:08.680 --> 0:49:10.640
<v Speaker 3>I know it's the.

0:49:10.760 --> 0:49:13.120
<v Speaker 2>Jaya Jay thing. But then again, we did get like

0:49:13.239 --> 0:49:16.440
<v Speaker 2>one seventeen hundred yard season from Jaya Jai before he

0:49:16.840 --> 0:49:19.239
<v Speaker 2>you know, disappeared into the ether, So maybe we'll get

0:49:19.280 --> 0:49:22.400
<v Speaker 2>that sort of smash season from ty J. Spears. And

0:49:23.320 --> 0:49:25.600
<v Speaker 2>maybe it's a one off, but I would still want

0:49:25.640 --> 0:49:26.600
<v Speaker 2>that guy in my roster.

0:49:26.480 --> 0:49:28.879
<v Speaker 1>If it happened. Spears is awesome. I love watching him run.

0:49:29.480 --> 0:49:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to another flex here. Jerry Judy or Kendre

0:49:32.480 --> 0:49:36.160
<v Speaker 1>Miller an interesting couple of names given what we've seen

0:49:36.160 --> 0:49:39.000
<v Speaker 1>from them recently and wherever your expectations may lie for

0:49:39.120 --> 0:49:41.719
<v Speaker 1>this week. Ericson who do you prefer for Week seventeen

0:49:41.920 --> 0:49:44.560
<v Speaker 1>if you were forced to start one, Kendre Miller or

0:49:44.680 --> 0:49:45.280
<v Speaker 1>Jerry Judy.

0:49:46.160 --> 0:49:48.799
<v Speaker 3>I'm not playing Jerry Judy with d trs this quart.

0:49:48.880 --> 0:49:50.759
<v Speaker 3>I mean, we saw this playout lot, Like we've seen

0:49:50.840 --> 0:49:53.120
<v Speaker 3>Jerry Judy play with bad quarterbacks his entire career, and

0:49:53.200 --> 0:49:56.640
<v Speaker 3>it's never good. Just it's like he needs Winston and

0:49:56.760 --> 0:49:59.000
<v Speaker 3>that's it, and then nobody else can make Jerry Judy good.

0:49:59.080 --> 0:50:02.320
<v Speaker 3>So I'm not playing. I think Kendre Miller is I

0:50:02.360 --> 0:50:04.160
<v Speaker 3>think that people would have more confidence in Kendre if

0:50:04.200 --> 0:50:06.680
<v Speaker 3>the Saints had just played so bad. And that Monday

0:50:06.760 --> 0:50:09.120
<v Speaker 3>night game where I mean we talked about it last

0:50:09.160 --> 0:50:12.760
<v Speaker 3>week fits where yes we liked Miller, like his potential,

0:50:12.800 --> 0:50:15.840
<v Speaker 3>but we recognize this is the worst possible spot for

0:50:15.920 --> 0:50:18.279
<v Speaker 3>a second year running back with a rookie quarter playing

0:50:18.280 --> 0:50:20.120
<v Speaker 3>on the road in Lambeaufield, like this is going to

0:50:20.160 --> 0:50:22.319
<v Speaker 3>be a disaster, and that's exactly how it played out.

0:50:22.400 --> 0:50:25.520
<v Speaker 3>So this time it's different, right, Like they're playing at home,

0:50:25.600 --> 0:50:27.640
<v Speaker 3>they're playing against the Las Vegas Raiders, just be like

0:50:27.680 --> 0:50:30.439
<v Speaker 3>their defense as a streamable option. But I expect Hendrick

0:50:30.480 --> 0:50:34.360
<v Speaker 3>to do way more than he did against against the

0:50:34.400 --> 0:50:36.279
<v Speaker 3>Green Bay Packers. So that's the way I'm playing it.

0:50:36.360 --> 0:50:38.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna go with Kendre here because I think that

0:50:38.200 --> 0:50:40.719
<v Speaker 3>he's gonna bounce back a little have a better better

0:50:40.800 --> 0:50:43.799
<v Speaker 3>odds of hitting in this spot versus Judy where I mean,

0:50:44.120 --> 0:50:46.120
<v Speaker 3>we've done this before with bad quarterbacks. With him, it

0:50:46.200 --> 0:50:48.479
<v Speaker 3>just doesn't work. And we know dtr his favorite target

0:50:48.560 --> 0:50:50.919
<v Speaker 3>is David and Joku Like we saw it last week,

0:50:50.960 --> 0:50:53.479
<v Speaker 3>We've seen it last year he leaned heavily on David

0:50:53.480 --> 0:50:55.759
<v Speaker 3>and Joku. And if it's Bailey z Appy, please just

0:50:56.160 --> 0:50:58.600
<v Speaker 3>stay up far away from Jerry Judy as humanly possible.

0:51:00.160 --> 0:51:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Do you like here?

0:51:01.400 --> 0:51:05.080
<v Speaker 2>I echo everything Erickson just said. This is a Kendre

0:51:05.200 --> 0:51:07.200
<v Speaker 2>Miller call for sure. I think it'll be a better

0:51:07.239 --> 0:51:09.680
<v Speaker 2>week for him. Maybe not a great week, maybe it'll

0:51:09.680 --> 0:51:11.840
<v Speaker 2>be kind of a committee, but it's bound to be

0:51:11.920 --> 0:51:13.480
<v Speaker 2>better than it was last week in Green Bay. And

0:51:13.560 --> 0:51:16.759
<v Speaker 2>I think the easiest player prop bet of the entire

0:51:16.880 --> 0:51:19.400
<v Speaker 2>season was Jerry Judy was at like sixty two and

0:51:19.480 --> 0:51:23.360
<v Speaker 2>a half yards last year. I was mad after that

0:51:23.440 --> 0:51:25.880
<v Speaker 2>game ended that I had bet more money on the

0:51:26.000 --> 0:51:28.920
<v Speaker 2>under for Jerry Judy. Like I was like, what were

0:51:28.960 --> 0:51:30.880
<v Speaker 2>you thinking? Like why didn't you bet more? That was

0:51:30.920 --> 0:51:34.959
<v Speaker 2>so obvious. Yeah, whatever the under is on Jerry Judy

0:51:35.080 --> 0:51:36.560
<v Speaker 2>this week, I'm probably going to hit it again.

0:51:37.680 --> 0:51:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Let's do a quarterback here fits how about Brock Purdy

0:51:41.680 --> 0:51:43.120
<v Speaker 1>or bow Nicks this week?

0:51:44.520 --> 0:51:47.440
<v Speaker 2>Give me Nis, give me the quarterback on the playoff

0:51:47.520 --> 0:51:51.960
<v Speaker 2>bound team. Nix has thrown multiple touchdown passes in five

0:51:52.080 --> 0:51:54.600
<v Speaker 2>of his last six games, and he started running again.

0:51:55.120 --> 0:51:57.319
<v Speaker 2>There was a span of four games where he had

0:51:57.440 --> 0:51:59.839
<v Speaker 2>five or fewer rushing yards in each of those games.

0:52:00.120 --> 0:52:02.319
<v Speaker 2>Now he's had more than twenty rushing yards in each

0:52:02.360 --> 0:52:04.920
<v Speaker 2>of the last two. Plus he gets a matchup against

0:52:04.960 --> 0:52:07.520
<v Speaker 2>the Falcons defense that has given up the eighth most

0:52:07.640 --> 0:52:12.400
<v Speaker 2>fantasy points to quarterbacks. Atlanta has allowed twenty eight touchdown passes,

0:52:12.440 --> 0:52:16.520
<v Speaker 2>tied for second most. Falcons also have the fourth worst

0:52:16.600 --> 0:52:19.479
<v Speaker 2>opponent passer rating in the league. Great matchup, great spot

0:52:19.560 --> 0:52:22.120
<v Speaker 2>for Nicks. I just I kind of mentioned it before

0:52:22.160 --> 0:52:24.560
<v Speaker 2>when we were talking about Juwan Jennings, Like the forty

0:52:24.640 --> 0:52:27.320
<v Speaker 2>nine ers are out of the playoffs, their offense is

0:52:27.360 --> 0:52:29.680
<v Speaker 2>on kind of a bad trajectory. They've scored seventeen or

0:52:29.760 --> 0:52:32.000
<v Speaker 2>fewer points in like five of the last six, and

0:52:32.200 --> 0:52:34.320
<v Speaker 2>they aren't gonna have Trent Williams at left tackle. So

0:52:35.080 --> 0:52:39.640
<v Speaker 2>I will take Bonex over brock Party pretty confidently, Ericksonz.

0:52:39.680 --> 0:52:42.760
<v Speaker 3>I just wanted to check on. So you said Bonex

0:52:42.800 --> 0:52:45.040
<v Speaker 3>is playing the Bengals, not the Falcons. Were you reading off?

0:52:45.239 --> 0:52:45.399
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

0:52:45.520 --> 0:52:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Sorry? Sorry? Sorry? Yeah, all right?

0:52:48.280 --> 0:52:49.960
<v Speaker 3>Was that all like Bengals stuff or was that for

0:52:50.000 --> 0:52:50.480
<v Speaker 3>the Falcons.

0:52:50.760 --> 0:52:52.640
<v Speaker 2>That might have been Falcons stuff. I might have had

0:52:52.680 --> 0:52:56.360
<v Speaker 2>the wrong matchup, so that's bad, but still potential shootout

0:52:56.400 --> 0:52:59.000
<v Speaker 2>against the Bengals. Yea, yeah, like we're excited about the

0:52:59.040 --> 0:53:01.759
<v Speaker 2>game script against the That was a mistake.

0:53:01.520 --> 0:53:03.360
<v Speaker 3>But no, all good. I just wanted to clarify that

0:53:03.360 --> 0:53:05.160
<v Speaker 3>because I would be cause, yeah, I mean, I think

0:53:05.160 --> 0:53:07.239
<v Speaker 3>they thing to point out to bon Nicks is when

0:53:07.280 --> 0:53:10.279
<v Speaker 3>we see him we see him run more when the

0:53:10.400 --> 0:53:12.920
<v Speaker 3>Bengal or when the Broncos have to push the like

0:53:12.960 --> 0:53:14.560
<v Speaker 3>the pedals to the medal, like when they don't get

0:53:14.560 --> 0:53:16.279
<v Speaker 3>to just steam roll opponents where it's like, hey, we

0:53:16.320 --> 0:53:18.560
<v Speaker 3>can play conservative, let's hand the ball off, let's have

0:53:18.640 --> 0:53:20.759
<v Speaker 3>these easy passes for bon Nicks. But then it's like, hey,

0:53:20.800 --> 0:53:22.719
<v Speaker 3>we're down fourteen points, Like hey, bo, you got to

0:53:22.760 --> 0:53:24.680
<v Speaker 3>use your legs, right, You got to make plays if

0:53:24.680 --> 0:53:27.880
<v Speaker 3>you're not hitting the ball downfield. So yeah, I think

0:53:27.920 --> 0:53:29.120
<v Speaker 3>that this is probably spot where you want to go

0:53:29.160 --> 0:53:33.239
<v Speaker 3>with bone Nix, and he has been He's surpassed all

0:53:33.280 --> 0:53:34.680
<v Speaker 3>my expectations in terms of what he could do as

0:53:34.680 --> 0:53:37.120
<v Speaker 3>a fantasy quarterback this year. And when you add in

0:53:37.200 --> 0:53:39.520
<v Speaker 3>that extra element of hey, this is a spot where

0:53:39.560 --> 0:53:41.719
<v Speaker 3>he's probably going to run because it's a game where

0:53:41.760 --> 0:53:43.959
<v Speaker 3>you're going to see points. I do like Brock Prarie

0:53:43.960 --> 0:53:46.960
<v Speaker 3>a lot too as a pocket passer, but again he

0:53:47.120 --> 0:53:48.880
<v Speaker 3>is limited as a pocket passer, where if he is

0:53:48.920 --> 0:53:51.120
<v Speaker 3>not running as much as bone Nicks, he may not

0:53:51.160 --> 0:53:53.080
<v Speaker 3>be able to hit the same type of Fantasy football

0:53:53.160 --> 0:53:54.759
<v Speaker 3>threshold that we can get from a guy like Nick.

0:53:54.840 --> 0:53:56.880
<v Speaker 3>So I actually had pretty ranked ahead of Knicks. I

0:53:56.960 --> 0:53:58.640
<v Speaker 3>probably got to move him, move him up.

0:53:59.480 --> 0:54:01.480
<v Speaker 1>We all almost made it to the end of the

0:54:01.719 --> 0:54:03.600
<v Speaker 1>very last show of the year without Fits making a

0:54:03.680 --> 0:54:04.400
<v Speaker 1>single mistake.

0:54:04.640 --> 0:54:07.600
<v Speaker 2>We couldn't do it. Oh, He's made a lot of mistakes,

0:54:08.760 --> 0:54:10.600
<v Speaker 2>just none so glaring as that one.

0:54:10.680 --> 0:54:14.719
<v Speaker 1>Your your words, not mine. Tight end hunter Henry or

0:54:14.800 --> 0:54:16.799
<v Speaker 1>Chiga Conqua this week Fits.

0:54:18.000 --> 0:54:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Chig Erickson mentioned it before. He has become Mason Rudolph's

0:54:22.800 --> 0:54:26.080
<v Speaker 2>like go to guy the last couple of weeks. Over

0:54:26.160 --> 0:54:29.520
<v Speaker 2>his last two games, twenty one targets, seventeen catches, one

0:54:29.600 --> 0:54:32.600
<v Speaker 2>hundred and forty receiving yards for Chicko Conquo, and this

0:54:32.760 --> 0:54:35.000
<v Speaker 2>week he gets the Jaguars, who've given up the eighth

0:54:35.120 --> 0:54:37.160
<v Speaker 2>most Fantasy points to tight ends.

0:54:37.760 --> 0:54:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Ericson Henry or a Conquo.

0:54:39.760 --> 0:54:42.400
<v Speaker 3>I like both guys. I am going to roll with

0:54:42.760 --> 0:54:46.080
<v Speaker 3>Henry just because he's been the number one target all

0:54:46.200 --> 0:54:48.520
<v Speaker 3>year long for Drake May. That's the only reason, just

0:54:48.600 --> 0:54:51.000
<v Speaker 3>I like the longevity of how he's kind of been

0:54:51.080 --> 0:54:54.239
<v Speaker 3>Drake May's player more reliable. Chick obviously has been hot

0:54:54.280 --> 0:54:55.840
<v Speaker 3>as of late, and I still like his matchup, but

0:54:55.840 --> 0:54:57.640
<v Speaker 3>I've just seen it more from Hunter. Henry's also revenge

0:54:57.719 --> 0:55:00.400
<v Speaker 3>game for unto Henry Can formerly of the Los Angeles Chargers,

0:55:00.560 --> 0:55:02.520
<v Speaker 3>or at that point they were the San Diego Chargers,

0:55:02.600 --> 0:55:05.000
<v Speaker 3>So I like Henry. I do like the Patriots offense

0:55:05.000 --> 0:55:07.319
<v Speaker 3>a little bit in this game against the Chargers playing

0:55:07.360 --> 0:55:09.320
<v Speaker 3>at home. A lot of the Patriots home games have

0:55:09.520 --> 0:55:11.920
<v Speaker 3>been kind of like low key shootouts, so I think

0:55:11.920 --> 0:55:13.960
<v Speaker 3>the Chargers are going to score points, and Henry's coming off.

0:55:15.040 --> 0:55:16.799
<v Speaker 3>I think he's probably like one of his best games,

0:55:16.840 --> 0:55:20.279
<v Speaker 3>Like we finally scored a touchdown after Tomorrow Douglas was

0:55:20.280 --> 0:55:22.239
<v Speaker 3>a ruled incomplete in the end zone, so I think

0:55:22.320 --> 0:55:25.160
<v Speaker 3>I think Hunter Henry could score again. And I mean

0:55:25.239 --> 0:55:27.160
<v Speaker 3>he's been a top twelve tight end the last two

0:55:27.200 --> 0:55:29.680
<v Speaker 3>or three weeks, and he's actually been in the top

0:55:29.760 --> 0:55:33.640
<v Speaker 3>ten and three of his last five games, So Henry

0:55:33.680 --> 0:55:35.520
<v Speaker 3>for me. But I do like Chig as a streaming

0:55:35.560 --> 0:55:38.680
<v Speaker 3>option if you don't have Henry available before we.

0:55:38.680 --> 0:55:41.560
<v Speaker 1>Get to the touchdown calls contest. Just want to congratulate

0:55:41.680 --> 0:55:44.719

0:56:29.480 --> 0:56:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's go out on top here with our touchdown calls contest,

0:56:32.360 --> 0:56:34.839
<v Speaker 1>I am starting off at running back this week. I'm

0:56:34.840 --> 0:56:37.520
<v Speaker 1>going with Oddric Estime for no reason other than every

0:56:37.560 --> 0:56:39.320
<v Speaker 1>time I think I know what's going on in this backfield,

0:56:39.400 --> 0:56:41.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm wrong. He's a player I liked. We just got

0:56:41.840 --> 0:56:43.400
<v Speaker 1>to kind of plant my flag here and say, I

0:56:43.440 --> 0:56:45.719
<v Speaker 1>think he gets into the end zone in what is

0:56:46.600 --> 0:56:48.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, an intriguing matchup for running backs, and I

0:56:48.719 --> 0:56:51.680
<v Speaker 1>could easily see him bowling over some Bengals and getting

0:56:51.719 --> 0:56:53.479
<v Speaker 1>into the end zone. So I'll go with Adric Estime.

0:56:53.719 --> 0:56:54.920
<v Speaker 1>Ericson who's your receiver?

0:56:55.880 --> 0:56:59.000
<v Speaker 3>How did you not pick Chase Brown as the r

0:56:59.040 --> 0:57:02.279
<v Speaker 3>WE touchdown call? We're he was? He was the this

0:57:02.400 --> 0:57:04.240
<v Speaker 3>is you're your fantasy. I want to see all the reviews,

0:57:04.320 --> 0:57:06.120
<v Speaker 3>right Chase Brown season, That's all you got to comment.

0:57:06.320 --> 0:57:09.600
<v Speaker 3>Chase Brown? Did you get to your championship? Chase Brown sison.

0:57:10.120 --> 0:57:13.120
<v Speaker 3>Uh yeah, Chase Brown's gonna score this week, probably for me.

0:57:13.440 --> 0:57:17.160
<v Speaker 3>My wide receiver touchdown call is DeVante Adams, because that's

0:57:17.200 --> 0:57:19.600
<v Speaker 3>the only man Aaron Rodgers is looking for when they

0:57:19.640 --> 0:57:23.000
<v Speaker 3>get anywhere near the end zone. Rogers' next touchdown pass

0:57:23.000 --> 0:57:26.480
<v Speaker 3>will be his five hundredth regular season passing touchdown. I

0:57:26.520 --> 0:57:29.520
<v Speaker 3>actually put a or a pull out on Twitter whether,

0:57:29.800 --> 0:57:33.720
<v Speaker 3>let's say bigger lock this week, Devanta Adams catching Aaron

0:57:33.800 --> 0:57:36.080
<v Speaker 3>Rodgers five hundred passing touchdown or it not going to

0:57:36.160 --> 0:57:39.440
<v Speaker 3>Garrett Wilson. So between the two lockses, sixty percent said

0:57:39.440 --> 0:57:41.720
<v Speaker 3>Adams is going to catch it, twenty eight percent it's

0:57:41.800 --> 0:57:44.960
<v Speaker 3>not going to be Garrett Wilson. So I'm gonna roll

0:57:45.040 --> 0:57:49.160
<v Speaker 3>with DeVonta here catching number five hundred from Aaron Rodgers.

0:57:50.040 --> 0:57:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Fitzy, do you have it? Tight end?

0:57:52.600 --> 0:57:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Jordan Love's favorite red zone target, Tucker Craft.

0:57:56.560 --> 0:57:59.440
<v Speaker 1>So we've got Oddric Simate at running back, DeVante Adams

0:57:59.480 --> 0:58:02.440
<v Speaker 1>at widers here, and Tucker Craft at tight end. Hopefully

0:58:02.440 --> 0:58:05.560
<v Speaker 1>we are going out strong here with the touchdown calls contest,

0:58:05.960 --> 0:58:08.560
<v Speaker 1>and hopefully we're going out strong with the starts recommendations

0:58:08.600 --> 0:58:10.840
<v Speaker 1>on the show. Thank you again to everybody for listening

0:58:13.640 --> 0:58:15.680
<v Speaker 1>not going anywhere next week. We will still have shows,

0:58:16.360 --> 0:58:19.640
<v Speaker 1>some stuff built around Week eighteen, some stuff built around

0:58:19.840 --> 0:58:21.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of an early look ahead to the off season,

0:58:21.680 --> 0:58:23.680
<v Speaker 1>and maybe even twenty twenty five. So we will be

0:58:23.720 --> 0:58:26.240
