1 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:09,080 Speaker 1: He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson of 2 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: the Black and Gold Steelers Nation Radio. Welcome back to 3 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: the Drive. I'm Dale Lilly here with Matt Williamson. It 4 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: is a Monday, and uh well we'll take a look 5 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: at our DFS lineup. We we hit on the money 6 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: on on Thursday's games. We did not do so. We 7 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: didn't finish badly. Give me jumped in the deep end 8 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: with Christian McCaffrey though we did, Cam Newton, Cam, Christian 9 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: McCaffrey were our quarterback, wid your quarterback running back. Um, 10 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 1: we got eleven point six eight points out of those two. 11 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: That killed us Miles Sanders real quick. In case people 12 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 1: don't know, Christian McCaffrey is now out for the year. 13 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 1: Yet another in again again Cam Newton was the worst 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: quarterback of the week. Um, just on tape. Just watch 15 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: to watch her bowl. Um. I would put that Carolina 16 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: game right there with the Steelers as most disappointing easily. Yeah, 17 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: we started hitting those two. We started Miles Sanders at 18 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: running back as well. That didn't work out. Nine carries 19 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: for sixty four yards again good average. Uh he he 20 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: got dinned up, so he didn't get the ball. They 21 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: were trying to come back late. He wasn't in there. 22 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: Um yeah, I pulled in my my main league. I 23 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: pulled a J. Dillon out when I saw Aaron Jones 24 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: was probably played plug Miles Sanders and that was a bad. Yeah. 25 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 1: I remember your texted me. I'm like, I would do 26 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: the same, but I'll still win this week. But yeah, Uh, 27 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: we had Keenan Allen. He had a Keenan Allen type 28 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 1: game seven eighty five. We had Deante Johnson. Again, It's 29 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: a solid you can pencil those guys in for that 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: stuff every week. We took a chance on Laviska Chennault. 31 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: Five catches for thirty three yards. It wasn't bad. Yeah, 32 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: he got used us. Gronk was our big hit. Um 33 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: seven for one three. Um, yeah, he just tore it up. 34 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: I'm not suggesting friar Mouth is going to turn into Gronk, 35 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: but boy, the Tampa and San fran offenses are so 36 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: much better when Kittle and Gronk are in there. And 37 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: if friar Mouths can be that type of tight end, 38 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: you know, wow, I mean it really has a ripple effect. Yeah, Freeman, 39 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: Uh fifty two rushing yards one catch for eight yards. 40 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: We got seven points out of him. Yeah. For again, 41 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: I'd like to get better out of that. The Texas 42 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: defense six points. No, right, that for what we paid for. Yeah, 43 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: so not terrible, but not we finished. Uh, when you 44 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: go all in on a guy like McCaffrey and get 45 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: very little bad We finished two nine. We needed to 46 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: finish in the top. We needed another I think twelve 47 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,119 Speaker 1: points to finish in the money. So if if if 48 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: Newton plays the entire game and doesn't stink as he did, 49 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: if McCaffrey doesn't get hurt, we finished the Yeah, I 50 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: mean both are starting running backs get hurt. Yeah, that's 51 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: that's usually in fantasy. So my main team, I had 52 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: a pretty decent wait a week, but Swift is my 53 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: number one running back. He got hurt in the end 54 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: of the first quarter. Yeah. Looking at the top performers 55 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: from this week, Dak Prescott three seventy five and two 56 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: touchdowns in that loss. It feels like three years ago. Yeah, 57 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: Derek Carr in the same game, three seventy three and 58 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: a touchdown. If you have one of those guys, that 59 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: was about it for the week because everybody else. Andy 60 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: Dalton had three Thursday's games. Uh yeah, Andy Dalton had 61 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: three seventeen in a touchdown. Mac Jones had three ten 62 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: and two touchdowns. Didn't run it all, of course, but 63 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: twenty three thirty two, nobody started Mac Jones. Yeah, you know, 64 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: starting Mac Jones. Aaron Rodgers was three oh seven and 65 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. He was okay, uh part always been all year. Good, 66 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: not great for fantasy. Yeah. Carson Wentz was three oh six, 67 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: three touchdowns, two interceptions, got sacked three times, fumbled. Um, 68 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: he's just not good. He's average, very average. You know 69 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna get good games at him, you're gonna get bad, 70 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: and then you get a bad game at him, you're 71 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: gonna probably lose, right right, And that's how that team is. 72 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: Herbert and Net lost to the to the Broncos was 73 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: three oh three, which sounds okay. Yeah, two touchdowns, two interceptions, 74 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: got sacked three times. I mean they just they scored 75 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: thirteen points. They scored thirteen points, and I actually starting 76 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: to feel for Herbert. We talked about him a lot 77 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: obviously leading up the Steelers. Chargers, it's all quick game, 78 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,799 Speaker 1: get it out now. I mean Matt Feiler was hurting 79 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 1: that game, and it it made it sound they played 80 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: a game plan like they had me. You and Brian 81 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: Crawley left tackle, you know, I mean, like would like 82 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: to see Crawley left tackle. That'd be funny against Denver. 83 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: I mean Denver's just batting down balls, know when the 84 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: ball is coming out, super good pass rusher was just 85 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: grabbing by the top of the head and then throw 86 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: him out of the road in second ro But poor Herbert, 87 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: I mean they're not using his skills. Yeah, and intermediate 88 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: Stafford was one thirty eight for three oh to three 89 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: touchdowns of costly interception. He almost I think he publicly 90 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: said I'm fighting. So there's some kind of injury to 91 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: play there too, because he's not been the same. I 92 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: think they all are at something at this point. Yeah, 93 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: there's something. Who's gonna be the m v P, Like 94 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: who are the studs? I mean, it's really an odd 95 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: year that way. Josh Allen uh Roethlisberger finished with two 96 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: sixty three and a touchdown, but he was not good 97 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: in that game. Two interceptions of fumble. Um Josh Allen 98 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:39,479 Speaker 1: had to sixty and four touchdowns but through to two interceptions. Um. Yeah, 99 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: they just they just destroyed. Yeah. The Saints. Mayfield finished 100 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: with two forty seven. There's a big drop off there 101 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: down to Mayfield to forty seven and a touchdown. I 102 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: mean there are only a couple of a couple of players. 103 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: Wasn't much there your quarterback? Yeah, I mean, I guess 104 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson goes tonight, but um not. Many people have 105 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: got a lot of production on the QB position. The 106 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 1: running backs was mixing. Had the best day for obvious reasons. 107 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: One two touchdowns. It was just a monster. Elijah Mitchell 108 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: comes rolling off the uh inactive list and gets twenty 109 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: seven for one thirty three in a touchdown. His long 110 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: run was fifteen yards so he ran the ball? Will 111 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: he just grounded out? Yeah? Yeah, I mean we'll talk 112 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: Vikes when that that short week comes around. But their 113 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: run defense was totally overwhelmed by San Francisco. Whether it 114 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: was Deebo or Mitchell or whoever. They gave the ball 115 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: to um four net at a big game. The Titans 116 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: scored thirteen points against the Patriots. Yeah, they had two 117 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: hundred yard rushers in that game. They also lost a 118 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: turnover battle four to nothing. Tannehill didn't get to Hunter. 119 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: I didn't mention I didn't mention Tanny Hill and we 120 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: were going through the list. Yeah, he was miserable. I 121 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: don't want to say he's been exposed, but he's been 122 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: strong word I mean, but yeah, I mean they don't. 123 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: What's crazy is they don't even run play action anymore. 124 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: You know, nobody's honoring the play action game. His guys aren't. 125 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: They were in about thirty one times for those two 126 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: bay rusher, I mean two guys no one's ever heard of. 127 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: Basically you would think they'd be in that game. But 128 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: the second half I didn't score point and turn them 129 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: all over. But she got pushed around. And yeah, they're 130 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: a bad team. Yeah, I'm not good. Dontrell Hilliard was 131 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: the twelve one thirty one in a touchdown. They just 132 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: they just basically signed him off the practice squad. They looked, okay, 133 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: tamoth foreman team for one oh nine. Okay, yeah right right. 134 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: If you told me they had two hundred yard rushers, 135 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: I think they might have beat the path went wrong. 136 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: Cor Darrell Patterson comes up back and he has six 137 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: team for one oh eight and two touchdowns. I know 138 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: they played a really bad team, but that offense with 139 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: him without him is night and Night Gay. Yeah, yeah, 140 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: I mean he's not there Derrick Henry, but he's really 141 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: important to the Falcons. There are some teams that had 142 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: him in the past. They're looking at this one. Why 143 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: every team? Why didn't we figure that out? Man? I mean, 144 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: I think I've told the story, but I don't think 145 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: I've ever spent more on a player in a dynasty 146 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: league to acquire than quarter Roll Patterson. Like first round 147 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: pick Scalore, This guy is gonna be a superstar. Nope, 148 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,679 Speaker 1: caught him like a year later. Yeah. Leonard four Nette 149 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: seventeen for a hundred and three count them three touchdowns. 150 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: We started Leonard Fournette last week in DFS. This was 151 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: the week that I had Brady and all those short 152 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: ones that he usually throws with Lenny and you know, 153 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: such as life. Josh Jacobs, that's a lot better for 154 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: fantasy than Yeah. We then maybe most people have him 155 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: credit he's a running back one. Yeah, Josh Jacobs eighty 156 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: seven and touch and has not rushed for a hundred 157 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: yards in a game this season. James Robinson seventeen phraighty six. 158 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: James Robinson is a good player to lost a fumble, 159 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: though costly. Melvin Gordon was the sorry Jonathan Taylor sixteen 160 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: three and a touchdowns, that's his floor. Yeah, that that's 161 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: gets a really good bucks. Yeah, it gets easier from 162 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 1: after that. Uh Jonathan Melvin Gordon's seventeen eighty three. So 163 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: that the thought that we had that maybe maybe they 164 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: might go uh the other way with that, that's not happening. 165 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: It's Avante Williams had fourteen for fifty four in a touchdown, 166 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: but caught a couple of passes. I don't if he 167 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: caught this though. On Gordon's first or second touch he 168 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 1: got hurt and I don't want to want to get hurt. 169 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: And I was like, boy, I'd like to see what 170 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: Javante without Gordon against the Chargers would look like. Oh yeah, man, 171 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: it was I was pretty exciting. Well yeah, I mean 172 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: thirty one carries for a hundred and thirty seven yards 173 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: out of those two backs. Yeah, right against a bad 174 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts eight for seventy seven. He's not good. He 175 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 1: had a really tough time throwing the ball. Yeah. I 176 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: mean the Giants were another team that or the Eagles 177 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: were another team that. The Giants did win that game. 178 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: The Eagles lost it and I think they threw three 179 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: picks and lost another turnover. They were and they were 180 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: oh four and turnover differential and still almost won that game. 181 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 1: The Giants are terrible and they got a gift. A J. 182 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: Dillon had twenty for sixty nine. Terry Now, but like, 183 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: if you're an Aaron Jones owner, are you worried? I mean, 184 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 1: he also caught a touchdown, so he's not going away 185 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: at all. Lamar Jackson, Yes, Lamar Jackson had seventeen for 186 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: sixty eight. Tevin Coleman sixteen for sixty seven. You're buying 187 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 1: on Tevin Coleman. They were in the game, you know 188 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: what I mean. If they're gonna get blown out in 189 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: the game, I think it's gonna be Uh, what's his face, Williams. 190 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: That's his name, Johnson John Yeah, he did a little bit. 191 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: He's not bad either. Yeah. Deebo Samuel went six for 192 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: sixty six and two touchdowns rushing, but he had a 193 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: groin injury. Uh. They're talking about talking about shutting him 194 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,319 Speaker 1: down for a couple of weeks and letting him get healthy. 195 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. I'm in the playoffs. I've been 196 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,719 Speaker 1: I've been riding Deebo I can give me day take 197 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: three weeks off, come back after my after my bye. 198 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna send a message to Shanny. I'm 199 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: not gonna site this exactly, but my co host, who's 200 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: a Niner guy on my podcast said this today. He's like, 201 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: it's something I'm close on this, so so I'm a 202 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: little gray. In the last five weeks, debos the number 203 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,719 Speaker 1: two wide receiver in Fantasy, and over that stretch he 204 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: has like nine catches. Yeah, I mean it's kind of 205 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: like he's like he's like Cordarrel Patterson right right, right, 206 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: It's just take him and move him the running back 207 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: and he runs the ball like a back. I mean physical, 208 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: We did that, you know, that's what you when he 209 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,719 Speaker 1: came out in the draft. Well, he you know, he 210 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: gets the ball in his hands. He's like a running back. Yeah, 211 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: he was a running back running right right. He's a 212 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: really special player. Jamal Williams had fifteen for sixty five 213 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: after Swift. Swift got hurt, So if he's there might 214 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: be some leagues where he's available. He was hurt for 215 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: a while and I'm not sure what swift status is. 216 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: I heard week the week or day one of those 217 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: type of things is kind of vague going anywhere, Like, no, 218 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: let him he's he's your future. Let him get healthy. Yeah, 219 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: Williams might be quite useful, swift and active. Yeah absolutely. 220 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: Sanders had nine for sixty four seven point one yards 221 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: of carry. Yeah, Yeah, he looks good. Yeah. Boston's got 222 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 1: fifteen sixty four um. Yeah, Darrell Henderson didn't hit. He 223 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: was sixteen for fifty five against that Packers defense. Not great, 224 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 1: three point four carry, they struggled. He is pretty good. 225 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 1: I mean, the Rams are still figuring things out. A 226 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: lot of their production was garbage time, and they hit 227 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: Jefferson on an eighty yard or and they had Odell 228 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: on a fifty sem yard er. But other than that, 229 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: they didn't move the ball consistently. Looking at the wide 230 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: receivers and tight ends. Here this week Jalen Waddle nine 231 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 1: for one thirty seven in a touchdown. I think he's 232 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: very real. He had a fifty seven yard or in 233 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: that game. They're actually pushing the ball down the field 234 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: with him. Now, it's not all bubble screens. Miami's coming around. 235 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: You know who the number two receiver in the league 236 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 1: was this week in terms of yardage. I guarantee you 237 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't think of this guy. I can't come up with it. 238 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: Hunter Flipping Renfro eight. We've started Hunter Renfro in df 239 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: US like probably half the games that we've put there 240 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: because he's always cheap, cheap eight for one thirty four 241 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: would have been absolutely He's a quality player. Yeah, he 242 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: gets he gets pepper, but targets he does. It's trustworthy. 243 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: He's good player. Yeah, gronkle at all tight ends this 244 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: week we made the right call there, seven for one 245 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: three Yeah, that was still good. Yeah, he's not just 246 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: the shell of himself, and he's a good player. Darnell Mooney, Um, 247 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: we've started him in a pass onboard with five Higgins 248 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: six one, fourteen and a touchdown sitting on my bench 249 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: this week. He's been hard for fantasy. I mean, part 250 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: of it's just game script. He's good. He's really good. Yeah, 251 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: I mean he picked on Pierre. Everyone saw that. Yeah, 252 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 1: well they could tell. The Steelers made a concerted effort 253 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: to make sure that Chase didn't get over the top 254 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: on them, and Higgins did. One of the fantasy notes 255 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: is when those three are healthy, usually two hit every week, 256 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: but you never know which to this week, it was one, 257 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: you know, I mean it's it's a it's a hard 258 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: one to well. And the other part of it is 259 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: it's very very rarely been Boyd this year, right, Like 260 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: he's been relegated to the fantasy irrelevance and maybe even droppable. Yeah. 261 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: Jervis Land rate six one eleven, Michael Gallup five for 262 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: one oh six, Davante Adams with the Davante Adams game 263 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: eight for one oh four. Did the matchup didn't seem 264 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: to bother him at all? No, No, he looks great. 265 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: They use them in such a variety of ways, and 266 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: they find ways of getting the ball, and they're alignement. 267 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: They're a line in Green Bay has one starter from 268 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: opening there one projected starters, and it just goes to 269 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: show you what Aaron Rodgers is. Yeah, and I've sold 270 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: the four a little short too. As a coach. I mean, 271 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: one's start teen games every year. Cedric Wilson had seven 272 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: four one oh four. Yeah, I mean they got news, 273 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: no Lamb, no Cooper. That worked out well for him. Uh. 274 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: DJ Moore four for one oh three. He was in 275 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: our overcoming an awful situation, just terrible. Yeah, really hard 276 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: to watch the Shawan Jackson three for one oh two 277 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: and a touchdown. That's what his Yeah, next week, go 278 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: catch one for six. Jacobe Fires had five. Yeah, it's 279 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: kind of what spread the ball around and it's working 280 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: for them, but it's really hard for fantasy. Cooper Cup 281 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: had maybe a floor game for him, seven for ninety six. 282 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: That's kind of it's Stafford struggling. Yeah, he is uh. 283 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: Deonte Johnson nine five, Randall Cobb four and a touchdown 284 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: almost fired him up last Yeah, I remember you were 285 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: Yeah he was cheap. Yeah. Van Jefferson, Van Jefferson three 286 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: for a touchdown, yeah or something. Iook three for nine one. 287 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: He does that every week now usually it's more than three, 288 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: but are especially if Samuel's out is definitely he definitely 289 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: definitely want to have him in your lineup. Keenan Allen 290 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: had a seven for eighty five. That's typical. We mentioned 291 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: him and Deante were on our team and they do 292 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: that every week. Justin Jefferson four for eighty three. He's 293 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: a superstar. Yeah. Clay Boy had three for eighty two. 294 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: The second tight end on the list, Jack Doyle six 295 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: for eighty one in the touchdown started by one. Jack Doyle, 296 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: Popeye Doyle would have had a better chance of being 297 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: in the lineup. How about them apples? Do you get 298 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: that reference? Yeah? Well French connection, Yeah alright. Odell Beckham 299 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: five for eighty one in a touchdown, didn't do anything 300 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: the first half. You texted me, you know about your YOURX. 301 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: It was Devant Freeman or Odell and Odell was the 302 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: high score of the third Digs had seven for seventy 303 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: four in a touchdown. He looks like he's kind of 304 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: round them back in the shape. Assistant Josh Reynolds for 305 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: the Lions three for seventy and a touchdown. I'm not 306 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: running to pick him up, but he might be their best. 307 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: He might be their number one guy. And boy, the 308 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: Titans feel silly right now. They cut him right before 309 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: all their guys get hurt, Like, what are you doing? 310 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: I think he wanted out, but he wasn't playing and 311 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: he's pretty good and they gave him money just season. 312 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: But keep an eye on him. Yeah. Er, we didn't 313 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: mention Ekeler in the rushers, but he had six for 314 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: sixty eight and touched. I'm receiving that's kind of what 315 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: he does. Cole Commet eight for sixty five and that 316 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: Bears game. I'm believing in cold Commet and good against 317 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,959 Speaker 1: Steelers two. He's coming into his own you know, right 318 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: Fields likes him. Yeah, Mark Andrews had four for sixty 319 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: five in a touchdown. Yeah, it's kind but yeah, Dalvin Cook, 320 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 1: who the Steelers probably won't see now six for sixty 321 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: four in that game. Uh, then you had Russell Gauge 322 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: at six for sixty two and a touchdown. You're picking 323 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,959 Speaker 1: up Russell Gauge. He's probably he's available in a lot 324 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: of leagues. He's available. It would take a lot for 325 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 1: me to get that that desperate. But I mean you 326 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 1: might be at this point when I'm getting hurt, right, 327 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: I mean he's respectable. I mean he should be in 328 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: most leagues. I guess Adam Feeling and five for sixty 329 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: two and two kind of two touchdowns. That's what he does. 330 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: He does. He just gets catches touchdown past he will 331 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: just look at numbers, will be like, well he's gonna 332 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: regrets to the meaning todowns. It's the same quarterback doesn't happen. 333 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: It's just it's he's in tight he's great at it 334 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: and cousins trust him having score touchdowns. Yeah, we mentioned that. 335 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: A couple of those big injuries. We talked about Samuel McCaffrey, Um, 336 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 1: who you like going back to chub Hubba Hubbard. I 337 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: guess they're lines really bad. I don't trust to their problem, 338 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: but he's clearly the two. He'll be the hot pick 339 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 1: up again this week. That's why you don't cut those 340 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: guys though, you know, like we go through the waiver 341 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: wire thing every week and people are like, well cut 342 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: Alexander Madison, cut you a Hubbard? Well better not of 343 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, those guys are clear handcuffs or 344 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 1: who you want to pick up this time a year. Yeah, 345 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: we talked about Deebo Samuel as well, and of course 346 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: everybody knows if um, you know, if Cook is out 347 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 1: that Madison's the guy that's a torn labor and when 348 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: he also dislocated his shoulder, for yeah, that's that's not good. 349 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a few weeks. Yeah, you may you 350 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: may not have him for the start of the playoffs. 351 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: That one wouldn't even shock me too. If things go 352 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: off the tracks for the bikes, you know, they lost 353 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 1: this one. They just shut it down. You know. I 354 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 1: mean if it's two or three or weeks of losses 355 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,199 Speaker 1: for them, because he's gonna need surgery, he need surgery 356 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: toward labor, and he's gonna need a surgery on Madison 357 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: is not bad. You know, I wouldn't be optimistic. I'm 358 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: a Coco owner that Oh I'll be playing him in 359 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: my playoffs. I don't know about that. Yeah, Dan Arnold 360 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: looks like he's out four to six weeks. That means 361 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: he's done for the year, just when he was starting 362 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,239 Speaker 1: to round into some fantasy relevance. Yeah, I mean, who 363 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,719 Speaker 1: would think that Agnew and Arnold would matter? But they 364 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: were like their most important guys and now they're gone. 365 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, does this Matterge Mike McCarthy's in COVID protocols. 366 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: The Cowboys played Thursday. He's not gonna coach that game. 367 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: It makes me want to bet on the Cowboys more. Yeah. Yeah, 368 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: I'm not sure he's the greatest game manager and be 369 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 1: a nice test run for Kellen Moore though, if people 370 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: are gonna be talking about him as a hot coaching 371 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: game boy. Tony Tony Romo spent the entire game Thursday 372 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: night or Thursday afternoon talking about what Kellen Moore is 373 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:01,199 Speaker 1: gonna do. He's a creative yeah, and okay, but right, 374 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: it hasn't been that exciting, no, I mean that offense 375 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: is loaded, and yeah, they've had some injuries like everybody 376 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: and Lamb and Cooper and Tyrone Smith and now Elliot's 377 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: fighting something to like actually that Thursday night game, Pollard's 378 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: I'm not sure Elliot's gonna play or play much. I'd 379 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: be good. I'd be okay with that too. I've got 380 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: I've got Elliott and Samuel seen them both. I'm fine 381 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: with it. I'll just love somebody else and and have 382 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: a chance to win. But yeah, just give me some clarity. 383 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: I don't want to see these guys questionable. And then 384 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 1: they they play, Yeah, they play. You know, you fire 385 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 1: up Aaron Jones this week and you're like, what I 386 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: do that for? Right? Right? There was another guy involved 387 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: with him, Right, That's that's the hardest parts. Um. Finally, 388 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury said he's hopeful that Kyler Murray and DeAndre 389 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: Hopkins will play Sunday after missing the last three games. 390 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 1: Why wouldn't they put those guys on ir Yeah, that's 391 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 1: a good point because they had they're coming off there 392 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: by now. Every week it was maybe we'll play Maybe, 393 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: I guess I are you gonna it's it's three games, 394 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: it's not. It's not three weeks three games. So maybe 395 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 1: that's why. But they thought Kyler might play and then 396 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: he didn't, and Hopkins seemed like the bigger deal with two. 397 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: But maybe you shop me if both aren't there, you'd 398 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: be you'd be feeling really good. Though. If Murray comes 399 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: back and is actually running the ball a little bit, 400 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 1: that's what they need. That's a fantasy owners. Yeah, Arizona 401 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: is a sleepy, sneaky one too, because they've withstood some 402 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 1: some tough things. Yeah, do you like anyone tonight? I 403 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: don't even know if I want to watch that game tonight. 404 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: I have cautious optimism for Gibson. It's in the kind 405 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: of an hour and ever. I think Washington wins a game. 406 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: It's a really good matchup for McLaurin. Heine. You could 407 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: throw five picks though, and it's a good It should 408 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: be a good matchup for the Seattle passing game too. 409 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: Would think, you know that's another thing. Back to our 410 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: first segment conversation about kicking dirt on the Steelers, like 411 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: I've kicked dirt on Seattle, but they might win way 412 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: too many times. Yeah, and then they're right back in it. 413 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: In the NFC, we might you know, we just talked 414 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 1: about the quarterbacks that didn't have big games. Wilson might 415 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: be QB one. When it's all setting down, he might 416 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: be it's how the lad's going, it's anything, you know 417 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: something it's not gonna told true. This has been the 418 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 1: weirdest year that I can remember, without question, in terms 419 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: of not just the league itself, fantasy, in terms of everything, quarterbacks, 420 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: I mean all the above. Yeah, it's it's not really 421 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: drove home the point that you don't spend a lot 422 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: of money on a quarterback or spend a lot of 423 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,719 Speaker 1: high draft pick and stuff like that, Right, I mean 424 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: that Josh Allen's and Mahomes that were all those guys 425 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: who went early, Right, you're under right. I mean it's 426 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: just you know, Dak was missed a couple of weeks. 427 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 1: He's just kind of stringing it together. Yea at that position. Again, 428 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: it's kind of like the for the real football conversation, 429 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: who's the m v P. Nobody has a great case, 430 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: Probably Brady right now, which is boring as could be. 431 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 1: But I don't even know if it's him. They just 432 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,479 Speaker 1: came off two losses, right, they're not. I think these 433 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: last six weeks will be very telling on that. I mean, 434 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry had a case. Yeah, running backs, Jonathan Taylor 435 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 1: has a case. It's odd might be uh, I don't know. 436 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not gonna be a Patriots. It's not 437 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 1: gonna be a Bill, you know. I mean thinking about 438 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: teams in the a f C, I don't think. I mean, 439 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,959 Speaker 1: you know, could Josh Allen win it by winning these 440 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: last six games, beating the Patriots twice and they finish, 441 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, he could be. He could be the 442 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: best player. Or Kyler Murray comes back after mission that 443 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: time and they go, they roll out, rattle off six 444 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: wins in a row and the number one seed in 445 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: the NFC. Roger Rogers might have the best case because 446 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: things have fallen around him and it hasn't changed their outcome. 447 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: I mean, he's carried that. You can say, well, Tampa 448 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: had some injuries, some they didn't haven't, you know what 449 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 1: the what the Packers and Jenkins and half their defense 450 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: and Jarry Alexander and they just keep winning. I mean, 451 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: they're the ones that haven't faltered. I mean, even like 452 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: staff and Dac, they had a case for a while. 453 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: And now I think I said this earlier today. I 454 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: used to think there's five really good teams in the NFC. 455 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: I'm not sure if Stafford A. Dack's team are anymore. 456 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 1: And they're going to playoffs probably, but they really contenders. 457 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: They're not playing like I don't know who they been. 458 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: I don't know who the defensive player of the year 459 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: is either. For that matter, good point Miles Garrett of 460 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 1: a sack or two yesterday, I don't believe did he 461 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 1: have one? I thought I didn't look at the box score, 462 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: But what defense is you know? I mean, I don't 463 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: think he's an approach the sack lead. T J is 464 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: now out of that conversation. I mean I would think, 465 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: I mean, he's second the league of sacks. Thill, what 466 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: if he turns it up? Yeah, that's a good question. 467 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, lots the lots to be determined 468 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: here in these final six weeks of the NFL season 469 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 1: should be a lot of fun. That's why you watched 470 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 1: the game. This is what this is what they wanted. 471 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: This is what the NFL has always wanted. Parody. This 472 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: is parody. Yeah, I don't think there have many teams 473 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: sitting people in Week eighteen, or I don't think like 474 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 1: every game matters so much because definitely and even you know, 475 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 1: with only one team getting a buy now, nobody's nobody's 476 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 1: running away with anything, right, and seven teams going in 477 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I mean I Ami could go in the 478 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: playoffs like we talked about, and they're below five hundred, 479 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: they have a great schedule, they're getting hot the right time. 480 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 1: Any team can do that. Here's what you don't want 481 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: to do, fantasy owners. Don't quit on your season. No, right, right, 482 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: right right.
