What is going on, 0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:23.120 man bggae, There's a lot going on. Very excited to 0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:27.639 talk about the Waiver Wire today, the first big Waiver 0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:29.840 wire run of this really the first today. It's the 0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:35.720 first where it will obviously be led by Sam Donald 0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:42.720 Princy noona Jet's defense in any other Gang Green members 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:46.319 that you can find on your waiver wire, Greggy, how 0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:50.720 about them Jets? How about them Jets? They were great? Listen, 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:52.960 you know you're watching that game, and I was riding 0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:56.280 for the Jets because um in the surmiber pool that 0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.120 I'm in a gonna of people at the time. I 0:01:58.160 --> 0:01:59.800 have the lines last night, so I'm like, all right, 0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:03.280 let's just let's go Jets. And after the first pick six, 0:02:03.360 --> 0:02:06.400 immediately as the game started, uh, Sam Donald came back. 0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:08.639 It was a great game plan by Jeremy Bates, was very, 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:12.440 very safe, but also aggressive. And you were right on 0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:16.520 this Frank all offseason that the favorite receiver of Sam 0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:19.160 Donald looked to be Quincy Noon. Well, it looks to 0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:21.840 be said that's essentially the rookie relying on the tight end, 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.639 because that's what Quincy Nion was. Essentially was last night 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:28.440 a big tight end robby Anderson. That was the novel 0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:33.080 two plays reverse in the long touchdown pass. So to 0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:37.520 be clear, Sam Donald was fantastic. Quincy Noon was stepped up. 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:39.960 This was the guy that was a wide receiver three 0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:43.760 all year long, two years ago. He is arguably the 0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:47.320 top wide receiver ad for real. Sam Donald is not well. 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:50.680 He was spectacular last night. As spectacular as he was. 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:54.000 Matthew Stafford was pathetically awful. Yeah, that Jets got to 0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:58.360 him repeatedly, but some of the thirds he made were awful, 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:00.880 Like that's what you expect a rookie to make. Um 0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:03.840 Stafford was brutal last night. But a lot going on 0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:05.800 the line side of things. We're getting into all of it, 0:03:06.120 --> 0:03:09.040 but Frank, congratulations to you. Thank you, Greggy, and I 0:03:09.040 --> 0:03:11.359 know you were at the game Sunday, the Giants and 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.640 Jaguars games, so we'll get your thoughts on that and 0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:17.079 how everything played out there. But yeah, it was kind 0:03:17.120 --> 0:03:20.200 of a roller coaster emotion last night. Obviously, starting with 0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:23.160 the pick six, You're like, this couldn't have started in 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.839 a more just smashing right. As soon as I saw 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:28.120 the ball released hands too right, like rolling out to 0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:31.000 your right and throwing all the way across the field 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:32.480 to the left, and you kind of see the safety 0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:34.880 spine there. As soon as he releases the ball, I'm like, 0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:38.280 this is not good. Something bad is going to happen. Absolutely, 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:40.360 you know what Todd Bowl said that it was the 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:42.800 best thing that could have happened for Sam Donald because 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:44.200 he got it out of the way he got his 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.400 first interception out of the way, and he really bounced 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:48.440 back after that. I think it was you know, it 0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:51.280 was bothering me, Todd Bows being like, this is the 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:53.120 best thing I could have ever happened to him, and 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:55.720 I'm like, no, no, it's not the best thing that 0:03:55.800 --> 0:04:00.480 could happen. When was he throwing a touchdown? I guess, 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:03.760 actual stupid continued, It's no. I mean, look, he turned 0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:05.320 the ball over a lot in college, so you know, 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:07.400 like there's gonna be some growing pain. So I understand 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:09.000 wanting to get it out of the way. Obviously, you 0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:11.040 don't want to bury yourself with a seven zero lead 0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:13.440 to start the game. But I forgot what it was. 0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:16.039 What his next sixteen or twenty passes in this game. 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:18.440 I think he only had like two interceptions. It was 0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:21.640 a perfect passer rating, uh in those next twenty throws 0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:24.800 after the interception, so you know, he showed that he 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.200 got knocked down and he bounced back, so you know 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:29.119 he made throws. He made a lot of third down 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:33.520 throws too, to keep drives going. But I really I 0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:37.240 wasn't overly impressed until he started to take shots down 0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:39.640 the field. That shot to Robby Anderson down the field. 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:42.719 To really just trust your receiver in a fifty fifty 0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:45.559 contested ball and to just put that right on the money. 0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:48.920 I was super, super impressed with that. Obviously, he's very athletic. 0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:52.120 I thought the Bolt Jets running backs looked very explosive 0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:53.599 in this game as well. I thought it was more 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:56.840 so bal power between the twenties and Isaiah Crowell in 0:04:56.880 --> 0:04:59.560 the red zone. Obviously Kroll had that long touchdown run 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:04.640 one year late for Mr Parson Corey the fantasy executive. Um. 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:06.560 But all around, yeah, I thought it was a great 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.200 game for the Jets. I don't want to react too 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:10.160 much because I mean, maybe the lines are one of 0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:11.960 the worst teams this year. You know, maybe they are. 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:15.240 But the Jets played fantastically all the game. The defense 0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:18.320 was spectacular. Andre Roberts on the kick returns he might 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:22.080 had a good return in I never really thought Andre 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:24.479 Roberts was anything, specially given you know he's bountered around 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:26.919 the league quite a bit four million lines. But um, 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:29.960 he was great last night. He was spectacular in all honesty. 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:31.880 And I thought the Jets in all three fastests as 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.320 you mentioned, were great. Uh. The running game was really good. 0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:36.280 Isaiah Crowell look like a man possessed. It was his 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.720 you know, his second win in his last thirty three games. Um, 0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:43.120 he was great, he was They were great last night. 0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.159 The Jets were great. And the funny thing, again is 0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:47.600 the Todd Bowls comment. But the funny thing was when 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:49.960 they went up like twenty four points, it was just 0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:52.479 him kind of staring blankly at the scoreboard, and I 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:54.040 was like, this is literally how he looks when they're 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:57.240 down twenty four four. Uh and and it was very cool, 0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:00.120 great and greatly played game by the new year were 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.040 Jets in the first game On the other side of 0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:05.279 the field. As I mentioned, Stafford was brutal. Jets Stevens 0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:07.719 was also not taking anything away from him. He was 0:06:07.880 --> 0:06:11.360 terrible last night, dude, absolutely terrible. Yeah. The offensive line 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:13.640 was not good at all. And I actually liked the 0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:16.240 offensive line. I mentioned that throughout the off season when 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:18.640 we were talking about carry on Johnson and and really 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:21.720 the fantasy draft process. I like this Lion's offensive line. 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:23.240 I like what they did in the off season. They 0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:24.960 did not look good in the preseason. They did not 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:27.960 look good in this first game. Reminder, if you get 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:32.200 beat by the Jets, pass rush, You're gonna have a long, 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:35.000 long season because they do not typically have a good 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:37.200 pass rush. I know they brought a lot of exotic 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:39.600 blitzes in this game, so again kudos to them. They 0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:43.039 handled what they were supposed to. But the Lions offensive 0:06:43.080 --> 0:06:45.280 line and just their overall blocking did not look good 0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:47.960 in this game. And I will say, like Garrett Blunt 0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:49.919 looked like he was running in quicksand I mean, I 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.280 don't know how much what he has left he got 0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:54.320 hurt in this game, but it was very obvious to 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:57.800 me that carry On Johnson is the lions best all 0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:00.760 around running back. I wouldn't be surprised if it's not 0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:03.160 long before we see, you know, fifteen plus touches for him. 0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:05.240 I think they need to go in that direction and 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:07.640 also on the lines offensive side of the ball, and 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:11.080 he gotta baby Tron. I mean, he looked phenomenal in 0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:13.240 this game, and it came at the expense of Marvin Jones, 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:16.400 something that I did worry about in in the preseason. Yeah, 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:18.320 I'm gonna start with the running game first. As you 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.000 said last night, carry On Johnson, in the limited touches 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.440 that he did have, easily was the best running back 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.440 on this team. Le Garrett Blunt, you you said it perfectly. 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:29.320 Legarrett Blunt looked like he was running a quicksand for 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:31.800 most of the night, and he he was playing every 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:35.040 major snap for these team. It was all Blunt really 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:37.960 until he got hurt. Um should have been a fumble 0:07:38.240 --> 0:07:41.080 the cold forward progress there. It was weird. Um, it 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:43.360 was a weird night to go to spend a high 0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:46.320 draft pick on carry On Johnson and then really go 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:48.560 with Legarrett Blunt, not just on the goal line. He 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:50.720 does have that knee injury. Will see later today how 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:53.440 serious that was. But you're gonna see more carry On 0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:55.960 Johnson very very quickly. And it was funny because even 0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:58.400 though they have a new coach in Matt Patricia, the 0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:00.760 same offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooder, this is the offense 0:08:00.800 --> 0:08:02.720 that we've seen forever with Detroit where they just don't 0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:05.200 they just forget about the run. And it took and 0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.520 I understand they were in catch up mode very very quickly, 0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:10.120 but it was seventeen all very early on in the 0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:12.320 third quarter. And if the defense can just step up 0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:16.320 after the Jets score right after that instead of another 0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:19.080 throwing a pick six by Matthew Stafford should have established 0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:20.560 the run a little bit more. I don't know if 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:22.320 it gets out of hand as quickly as it did, 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:24.080 but they just knew what was coming and they said 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:25.720 it after the game. We knew exactly what was coming, 0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.320 and I think we got in his head and you 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:30.760 saw it, man, you you saw it. They didn't give 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:33.600 carry On Johnson a chance that Garrett Blunt went nowhere 0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:36.520 and theoretic because they're in catch up mode, play the 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:38.920 theoretic role we always expected him to have. Now, he 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:41.840 did not look good by any means, but his role 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:44.600 was the same as ever. So those that spent a 0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:48.320 late round draftic on theoretic, you should feel good about 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:52.079 yourselves because his role has not changed. Harry On Johnson 0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:54.360 is not a three down back in this offense. I'm 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.240 not saying he won't never be, but in this offense 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.200 he's gonna be a two down back, and then there's 0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:00.880 going to be theoretic when it comes to the passing game. 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:02.880 I thought Golden Tate did not have a great game 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:05.040 despite the touchdown. He had to burst up the middle, 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:07.720 almost like Randall coven right before, not as far, but 0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:09.400 he had the burst at the middle to score the touchdown. 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:13.559 Um dropped a few passes, wasn't always in sync with 0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:16.880 Matthew Stafford. And Kenny Golladay absolutely look fantastic that Marvin 0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:19.040 Jones got his I don't want to say that he didn't, 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:22.960 but Kenny Golladay just looked awesome last night. It wasn't 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:26.480 just the massive hit he laid on the Jets player, 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:30.440 but it was being all over the field being a monster, 0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:34.080 and he looked fantastic. He looks like somebody that is ascending. 0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:35.960 I don't want to see Marvin Jones looks like looks 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:37.880 like he's descending, because I don't see it that way. 0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:39.559 But I think there's gonna be a role for all 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:41.640 three of these players in the offense. They don't have 0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:43.120 a tight end like Eric e Run. You have a 0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:45.679 Levine Toyol, though you have Luke Wilson. But I think 0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:48.280 it will be mostly three wide receiver sets with Tate 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:51.200 Galladay and and Marvin Jones. But if he got Galladay 0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:53.400 for very very little in an auction or very very 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:55.760 late in your draft, you should be very very good 0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:59.160 about yourself. Yeah. Absolutely, And obviously we're gonna talk about 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.480 waivers today. Drops and players who want to stream. In 0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:04.400 Week two, Henny Golladays on in fifty seven percent of 0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:06.440 CBS Sports league. So if you're playing a ten team 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.600 league or he wasn't drafted in a twelve team league 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:10.920 for some reason, I think above all the names that 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:12.600 we're gonna talk about, so he has to be the 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:15.920 number one ad, right. He played the most wide receiver 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:17.920 snaps on this team yesterday, and I don't know if 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.240 that was just because, um, towards the end of the 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:21.560 game it was a blowout and it just kind of 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:23.280 like left him on the field and they rested Golden 0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:25.599 Tate and Marvin Jones. But this was the most the 0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:27.439 highest percentage of snaps that he played in the game, 0:10:27.520 --> 0:10:30.360 ninety two point eight six. And then, as we mentioned, 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:33.120 twelve targets in this game, the second most targeted receiver, 0:10:33.360 --> 0:10:35.800 and they moved them all around the field outside, they 0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:37.520 used them in the slot, they used them on crossing 0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:40.960 patterns to down the field. So yeah, he looks as 0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:43.320 everything has advertised. I think if you own him, you 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:47.400 feel very very excited right now, totally totally awesome feeling 0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:50.040 if you Kenny Holladay and not but has a lot 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:53.080 of work to do with this team here, Frank when 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:54.600 it comes to the Lions. But that was only the 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:56.319 first game that was a one the night football. The 0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:59.200 second game was out in Oakland in the black Hole, 0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:03.560 the Raiders and the Rams, and the Raiders got off 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:05.360 to a fast start. They would look good. That first 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:08.520 drive was awesome, Marshawn Lynch's as beast mode as ever. 0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:10.880 I felt really good about it. And it's funny because 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:14.640 I remember watching the first quarter of the game and saying, 0:11:14.760 --> 0:11:17.160 you know, this reminded me a lot of the Eagles 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:20.040 the Thursday night before, where everybody and their mother bet 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:22.600 on the Atlanta Falcons and everybody counted out the Eagles 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.400 once again, and the Eagles went and dominated the football 0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:27.200 game and won. And I felt the same way about 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:29.000 the Raiders, And like, man, I should have texted you 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.600 and said, been on the Raiders because everybody and their 0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:33.880 mother wanted to bet on the Rams because how good 0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:36.640 the Rams are and how bad we perceived the Raiders 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:41.640 to be. And after that first quarter, obviously like damn, damn. 0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:44.760 But the longer the game went on, almost like Chicago 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.360 and Green Bay in away, the longer the game went on, 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:50.600 you just saw the talent discrepancy. In all honesty, I 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:53.599 only watched the first half before I went to bed um. 0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:56.240 But the first half you saw the momentum swinging, and 0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:57.679 by the time the second half, as I watched the 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:00.319 highlights this morning, by the time the second half hit, 0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:03.480 it was all Rams all the time, that bastard Robert 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:06.200 Woods couldn't get more yards despite leading the leading the team, 0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:08.400 and all it's both down the field. And so you're 0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:10.760 a dot tweet earlier this sporting um and and in 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:13.840 the near field as well. Um, so let's start with 0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:15.880 the Rams they get into the Raiders. What do you 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:18.480 think the Rams performance last night? Yeah, so obviously I 0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:20.840 had the Rams in this game at minus four, and 0:12:20.880 --> 0:12:22.480 for a lot of the first half I was worried. 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:25.680 I was like, look, you know Sean McVeigh and Jon Gruden, 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:29.000 they're playing up their relationship storyline before the game. It's 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:30.800 pretty much all they were talking about. So I'm like, 0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.080 this might actually be a closed game. And it looked 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:34.640 like that in the first half, and then we saw, 0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:37.320 as you mentioned in the second half, a talent to screptancy. 0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:40.800 I was just feed Todd Gurley in the first half. Um, 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:43.560 they really bottled them up, and I think, um the 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:46.120 Raiders controlled the time of possession a lot in the 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:48.400 first half, so we didn't get to see a ton 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:50.440 of Todd Gurley. But then in the second half, and 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:52.440 this is what I worried about with Jared Golf coming 0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:55.200 into the year for fantasy purposes, greg is that I 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:57.400 think they're gonna be playing a lot of games with 0:12:57.480 --> 0:13:00.000 fourth quarter leads and they're just going to grind up 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.199 clock With Todd Gurley. I don't know how much Jared 0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:05.040 Golf is actually going to have to do. Gos still 0:13:05.080 --> 0:13:07.400 through for two thirty three and two touchdowns, which was 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:09.480 good enough to finish his QB fifteen this week, but 0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:11.520 I think we're gonna see a lot of those performances 0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:13.760 out of him this year. Todd Gurley was still girly. 0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:16.360 Twenty rushes for a hundred and eight yards. He had 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:19.480 five targets in the game, three receptions thirty nine yards 0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:21.839 and a receiving touchdown as well, so it was more 0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:24.840 of the same. Ram's offensive line look great. Cooper cup 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:26.960 is still Jared Goff's guy in the red zone. Had 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:30.280 multiple red zone targets in this game. Uh, Brandon Cooks, 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:34.400 I thought fitting seamlessly. Eight targets, five receptions, eighty seven yards. 0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:38.920 He drew a long pass uh pass interference penalty down 0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:40.880 the field, but they used him in the middle of 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:43.000 the field. They lined him up all over as well. 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:46.360 Um but Robert Woods, Yes, he didn't convert the targets, 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:49.000 but I thought it was very interesting how they used him. 0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:52.520 He still was tied forward the team lead with nine 0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:55.360 targets in this game, three receptions thirty seven yards, but 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:57.480 he was the guy that was getting more deep shots 0:13:57.480 --> 0:14:00.320 down the field from Brandon Cooks. So I think I 0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:02.920 think in this offense with Sean McVeigh, it's just kind 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:05.760 of a mix and match, right, Like defenses are not 0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:08.079 going to expect Robert would to be the guy getting 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:11.000 the deep ball down the field. Brandon Cook's defenses are 0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:13.400 gonna expect that. And I think that's why Sean McVeigh 0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:14.840 is so great, right, Like he's gonna do the thing 0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:17.960 that teams aren't expect. Brandon Cooks had eight targets last night. 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:20.480 The only game Sammy Watkins all year long had eight 0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:22.440 targets in last season was the one that Robert One 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:24.720 of the ones that Robert Woods was out for with 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:28.400 a shoulder injury, and Sean McVey used everybody from Cooks 0:14:28.400 --> 0:14:30.800 to Cup to Woods, and you know, honestly, if you 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:32.760 don't have any of them, I feel good. I think 0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:35.360 you feel good about the target distribution right, Like there's 0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:37.920 no place here for a tight end, Like there's no 0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:41.400 fantasy viable tight end. It's girly, and there's three receivers, 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:44.160 and each and every week, if they're in a closer game, 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:46.960 you're going to see the target distribution looks something like this, 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:49.760 seven eight, nine for all three of these guys. And 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:52.040 I think if you drafted them, I had all three 0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:54.720 ranked inside my top thirty six. I think that there's 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:56.360 a world where all three of these guys are going 0:14:56.400 --> 0:15:00.760 to be at least wide receiver threes. With Brandon Cooks, 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:03.600 I know he looked great last night, but those matchups 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:07.960 against opposing strong cornerbacks are coming. But the question is 0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:10.440 is he the one gets him. I'm not sure he does. 0:15:10.480 --> 0:15:13.160 And I think what's gonna be what's gonna be probably 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:14.960 the safest out of all these guys, it's probably Cooper 0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:18.080 Cup in the slot in the red zone. He was 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:19.720 still the guy last night in the red zone. Yeah, 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:22.320 And there is clearly just a reliability here between Cooper 0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:25.200 cup Um and Jared goff. I also had an interesting 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:29.000 on wide receiver runs, whether the reverses or direct runs. 0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:31.080 All three wide receivers got a chance to do it 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:33.240 last night, Cooper cup Robert Woods. It's the Ferry wide 0:15:33.240 --> 0:15:35.680 receivers and Toddle that is this office. That's great and 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:38.360 it's one of the best offices in the NFL. And again, 0:15:38.400 --> 0:15:40.280 if you have exposure to it, you feel good about it. 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:42.240 Right now, do we want to jump over to the 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:45.160 Raider's side now or do let's go back to the 0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:47.840 Raiders right now? Because the Raiders Marshawn Lynch I felt 0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:49.920 look great. He was beast smote and I felt really 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:51.760 good about that first half. Yeah, where like the game 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:54.040 was really close. So that's awesome. That's what you hope 0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:57.840 from them. Everybody else is a disaster except for Jared, 0:15:58.080 --> 0:16:00.560 except for Jered big Foot Man. Everyone is gonna pick 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:05.480 up big Foot become big Foot next week, or at 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:07.400 least that's what we expect, because that's all we've ever 0:16:07.440 --> 0:16:10.200 seen out of Jared Cook. Now it is a new offense. 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:12.560 It's John Gruden. Maybe he's making it an emphasis to 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:15.400 get Jared Cook involved obviously led the team in targets, 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:18.080 tied for the team lead with nine receptions hundred and 0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:21.960 eighty yards. This also could have been by design against 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:24.840 the defense that they were playing. Obviously, Amari Cooper was 0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:30.360 a huge, huge disappointment. Absolutely begins matchup. Three targets, one reception, 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.720 nine yards, and it brought this up to last week, Craig, 0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:35.760 This might have been the worst possible matchup ever for 0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:38.760 him because based on the cornerbacks that he was facing, 0:16:38.960 --> 0:16:40.960 Marcus Peters or keep to leave. No matter where you 0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:44.080 put him, he's gonna be bottled up. So you're still 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:47.640 buying Amari Cooper. You're still in on Amari Cooper because 0:16:47.760 --> 0:16:50.000 see what you will, this was a terrible, terrible matchup 0:16:50.680 --> 0:16:53.360 where I owned him. I'm still viewing him as a 0:16:53.360 --> 0:16:55.360 wide receiver to which is what I drafted him out. 0:16:55.400 --> 0:16:57.320 Say what you will about this, dude. Yeah, in fact, 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:00.560 he wasn't even targeted signs. What one time I could 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:02.040 have been the game plan though. Look at how many 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:04.280 targets shared Cook, right, twelve targets. All right, so you're 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:06.920 still Mary Cooper, I'm still in Okay, it's still a 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:10.320 wide receivers to good luck with that who it goes 0:17:11.240 --> 0:17:13.840 sure will when to take a break. When we come back. 0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:16.880 We turn the page on week one and we let 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:19.160 you know who to grab for week two.

Last night in Oakland, 0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:58.240 as great as Marshawn Lynch was in the first half 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:00.920 and as useless as Doug Martin us throughout the game, 0:19:01.119 --> 0:19:03.359 there was a third running back that really stepped up, 0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:05.840 and that was Jalen Richard. All the credit of the 0:19:05.840 --> 0:19:08.600 world goes to Mikey Florio for this one, because Floria 0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:12.080 told us before the game, before the season jr GS 0:19:12.160 --> 0:19:16.840 teacher has y'all should take Jalen Rachard because John Greene 0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:18.840
