Speaker 1: Steelers Nation Radio Welcome back. I'm Dale Alli here with

15
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: Matt Williamson. Where we could have uh talked to Bob

16
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: for hours. I mean that's what we do a training camp,

17
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: but we will just we haven't talked to him a

18
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,479
Speaker 1: couple of weeks too, so I missed just having Bob

19
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: on in general. Let alone, let's chat Ben good stuff.

20
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,119
Speaker 1: Nobody remembers better than God. Yeah for sure, um as

21
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,199
Speaker 1: we do every every Wednesday, we're gonna start the fantasy

22
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: football focus here, but this is this is really just

23
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: the football focus this week. It really is. Um if

24
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: you start looking at the injury reports, um, well, Lamar

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: Jackson with the ankle injury did not practice on Wednesday.

26
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: It's been like a month. He's practice, he practices, and

27
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: he doesn't practice, and he's out there for you know,

28
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 1: he shows up and then they say is limping around.

29
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: Yeah hard boss says, well, this could be the h

30
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: this could be the week, and then he doesn't. You know,

31
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: every week been the exact same script though. I mean

32
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: Tuesday it's we feel optimistic he's gonna be out there,

33
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: and then Wednesday doesn't practice, and then Thursday he's going

34
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: to give it a go and all the re orders say, yeah,

35
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: he was limping around out there and didn't do anything. Like.

36
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: I don't know what to expect from that. I honestly,

37
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: I don't think he plays. No, I don't either, to

38
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: be very honest. I mean, they they they they're still alive,

39
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: but their path is more like they also need the

40
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 1: Colts to lose and other things and other things. Yeah,

41
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: it's it's a little more and I'm not sure. I mean,

42
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: does he even give you the best chance to win

43
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: in his current state? That's the other part. Does he

44
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: need offseason surgery exactly? That's just gonna make it worse.

45
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,519
Speaker 1: Is this gonna you know, if he happens to reinjure,

46
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: it would linger into training camp or and I don't know.

47
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: I don't talking medical stuff. It's hard for me, um quick.

48
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: Note though, I've been doing more and more research, and

49
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 1: you mentioned this yesterday. It's very obvious where they throw

50
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: the football when Lamar's in verse Huntley. I mean, Huntley

51
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: is much lower a dot and less risky with the football,

52
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: and everything's close to the line of scrimmage where Lamar are.

53
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: Especially early in the year, he was like leading the

54
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: league in average at the target I mean or the

55
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: highest event that that's not necessarily the best thing, but

56
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: I mean they there. Passing game is noticeably different. It is,

57
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: and it's it's almost Andrew centric too, exactly, like everything

58
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: everything goes yea, everything goes to it's over the middle.

59
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: He's great, right, I mean it's much easier hard to

60
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: figure out. Yeah, it's much easier to defend U than

61
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: the guy who just flicks his wrist in his thirty

62
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 1: yards down the field. And he's a better passer period,

63
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: and a better athlete and a better athlete, and it's

64
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: been around the block a lot more. He's a great player.

65
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: He's more experienced too. Yeah, um, so that who knows what.

66
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure that will lingered up till game time. It's

67
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: a home game, you'll have to travel him. I don't

68
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: think he plays. I don't think he does either. Uh.

69
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: Damien Harris and Jacoby Myers for the Patriots. Harris has

70
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: a hamstring. He was limited today, has been going into

71
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: last week and they were killing the Jags, so who

72
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: knows if it's a close game, and would have played

73
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: and stuck it out, but they pulled him out of

74
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:17,039
Speaker 1: the game. The Patriots are an interesting situation because that

75
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 1: division isn't set yet and there's a chance that they're

76
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: going to play the Bills too. Are play the Bills

77
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 1: in Week one of the playoffs, and winning or losing

78
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: could be the difference of it's in their building or

79
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: your building, and that's something I'm sure coaches would value.

80
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: But they have enough backs. I don't know that Harris

81
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,799
Speaker 1: plays this week for that those reasons, because you really

82
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: want them in week, want the wild card ground and

83
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: he kind of It's not like Stevenson stinks and he

84
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: might be the better back. I think it's a very

85
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: strong discussion. Yeah, I mean, I think both of them

86
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: have bright futures, are both really good players, and you

87
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: can win with either. Yeah, you know, so not in

88
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,919
Speaker 1: a game that really maybe do you think Buffalo is

89
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 1: gonna lose to the Jets. They played the Jets, they

90
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: played Jets and Pats pay Miami. You know, they're all

91
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: division games, so you know, you know, Okay, they're probably

92
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: not gonna lose. We're gonna we're gonna be gonna look

93
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: at the wild card. We're gonna be playing next week

94
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: one way or the other. Let's go with the game.

95
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: You can win with or without Harrows too. It's not

96
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: like he's a game breaker there. Uh so. Yeah, Myers,

97
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: on the other hand, if he does a little more

98
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 1: valuable for them all of a sudden, now you're your

99
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback doesn't have his woobie. Yeah, I mean we're

100
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 1: talking fantasy. That doesn't matter that much. But he's important.

101
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: He actually caught a touchdown pass last week. He's not terrible.

102
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: I mean, don't get me wrong, but he is important

103
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 1: to their offense. As usual, they're still searching for receivers

104
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: they can trust and big play options which they still

105
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: don't have. But you know, I mean, it's kind of

106
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: never had new story at the wide receiver position for

107
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: New England. Yeah. Um, but yeah, we'll see, We'll see

108
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: how that works out. Uh. If you're looking at Julio

109
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: Jones this week, guess what. He was limited by hamstring,

110
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: just came off the COVID list. This can't count on

111
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: him ever, He's the so notorious even in his best

112
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: days of leaving in the third quarter tough and through

113
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: an injury, and then you know, are always lower body stuff.

114
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: I think he has like screws in his foot that

115
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: he's played through. He's toughest could be. But at this

116
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 1: stage the risk is just way too much of counting

117
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: on him for fantasy than the reward, and as the

118
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: Titans are finding out in the real world too. I mean, like,

119
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: I bet the Titans first round picks a wide receiver,

120
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: you know, somebody opposite a j Brown, maybe a tight end.

121
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, no, there's no doubt about that. UM

122
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: has mentioned Lamar did not practice UM The Dolphins did

123
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: not activate Malcolm Brown from the injured reserve list, ending

124
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: his season. It's essentially Duke Johnson Miles gaskin inaugument, It's

125
00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: really Duke Johnson and Miles Gasking. Duke is flashed and

126
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: he had a really good game but two weeks ago.

127
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't want to do with any

128
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: of that. Their offense looked really bad last this despite

129
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: the fact that you can run on the Patriots. You

130
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: can and it wouldn't be a terrible matchup. But I'm

131
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: not expecting much out of Miami this week. You know,

132
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like they got all this momentum

133
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: and then the balloon popped and now it's you know,

134
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: let's get through this game and go home. You know,

135
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: the Jets got Jamison Crowder on a limited basis today,

136
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: got fifty catches this year. He's not a bad player.

137
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: I mean, Barrios has really stepped up actually well, and

138
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: he didn't practice today because of a quad injury. Eight

139
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: of twelve catches two touchdowns last week. Those are like

140
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: the two most meaningless fantasy touchdowns. Maybe at the weekend.

141
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: He's been a good returner. I mean, like he's made

142
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: some money for himself, like you kind of a forgotten guy. Um.

143
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: They also have Elijah More. I assume he won't be

144
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: back at this point, but all of a sudden, I mean,

145
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,679
Speaker 1: if you have those four receivers, that's not so bad,

146
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, Corey Davis is the one in

147
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: the fourth and one. I'm fine about that. That That we'ven't

148
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: seen forever either. Yeah, Jets are getting little better, are they?

149
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: Because they'll jet it up at some point. I don't

150
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: think they're good. I thought Wilson looks better the last

151
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: couple of games since his injury then before. Yeah, Michael

152
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: Carter for the Jets with the concussion did not practice. Um, yeah,

153
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: I don't think he plays. I mean, they did activate

154
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman from the COVID list. They like him. Uh,

155
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 1: coaches seem to like him. Shann, you have Coleman, Tyler,

156
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: ty Johnson, and Austin and Walter. They got the Bills. Yeah,

157
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 1: I mean I assume the Bills are gonna play everybody,

158
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: probably with a leash though, you know, like again, this

159
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,959
Speaker 1: is sort of a fantasy nugget is Okay, Josh Allen

160
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 1: gets the Jets and he's gonna start, But Is he

161
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: gonna be in there in the fourth quarter? No, probably not,

162
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: especially when you look in the Patriots or winning by

163
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: twenty or losing by twenty or whatever. To me, like

164
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 1: Ty Johnson to means like he'll be in he'll be

165
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: in there and catching passes. You know, that's actually the

166
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 1: way to look at for fantasy is who can you

167
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: pretty much promise me he's gonna play sixty minutes. It's

168
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: almost like looking at if you're looking at preseason games, right,

169
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: I know, people make a ton of money on preseason dfs.

170
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: I mean that are they just look at well they're nuts,

171
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: but there they look at those number those kind of things. Right,

172
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: we're playing to win, and you know, I mean that's

173
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: one place I think you can get an advantage on

174
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: the sports books because they don't know the fourth string

175
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: running backs and you know they're gonna play him half

176
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 1: a whole half in the preseason or whatever. So I mean,

177
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: if you're really in the draft and rookies and stuff,

178
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 1: you can and I think this week is similar, you

179
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: can kind of pick and choose and find some guys

180
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: like he's gonna be their starter. He's didn't get every carry,

181
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,199
Speaker 1: but you have them at three thousand dollars, and you

182
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: know that type of thing. That would be one of

183
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: the Ernest Johnson this week for the Browns, because well,

184
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt was still limited in Wednesday's practice and Nick

185
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: Chubb did not he was limiting. They listened as limited

186
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: with chest and rib injuries. I don't think they play either.

187
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: I don't think they played Chubb and why bring back Hunt? Right,

188
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be Deernest Johnson getting most of the

189
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: carry's when he's done that, he's he's been okay, right.

190
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: I mean, they're still gonna trout out there number one line,

191
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 1: and they're still gonna run the ball a lot, and

192
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 1: I don't know how many people since he's gonna play. Oh,

193
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 1: by the way, they blew blew the doors off the

194
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,679
Speaker 1: the Bengals the first Time's right, they ran all over him.

195
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: And since he might not even care, they might not care.

196
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: I would I would rest DJ Reader and guys like

197
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: that too, or play them very little. Yeah, that's a

198
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 1: good one, you know. I mean, I think the Browns

199
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,679
Speaker 1: will probably shut down Garrett and they already shut down Mayfield.

200
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: But someone's gonna get the ball for sixty minutes it's

201
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: probably Johnson, probably Johnson, David and Joku for them with

202
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: the shoulder injury did not practice today. Okay, so he's

203
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: probably he's probably looking I'm going to free agency. I'm not.

204
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: I think every team probably handles that differently, but I

205
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 1: think every player would basically say, hey, this, I got

206
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: nothing to play for. I don't want to. I don't

207
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: want to. Michael Gallup situation here. You know, all of

208
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: a sudden, my stock is ruined. Do you mind sitting me?

209
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: And most coaches should say yes, yeah, right that you know. Uh,

210
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs with a rib injury, was limited Wednesday. That's whuge.

211
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: That's a playoff game. Playoffs starts Sunday night. Yeah, that's uh.

212
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 1: The first time around against the Chargers, who have Hemorrhag's

213
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: rushing yards terrible thirteen for forty with five catches for

214
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: seventeen yards for Josh Jacobs in that game, I was

215
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: thinking he might be one of the more attractive running

216
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: backs period, just because you know he's gonna play and

217
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: never get the ball right, right, right right. But the

218
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: bad run defense if he's dealing with the ribs and

219
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 1: all of a sudden they fall behind and they right,

220
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: you know, I like the way he's played lately, though, Yeah,

221
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: Jared Goff was limited Wednesday. He comes back and get

222
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: a knee, he's got some reason to want to come back,

223
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: and like, yeah, I want to come back and put

224
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: something on take because he hadn't played well before the

225
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: He played okay the last few games before the injury.

226
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 1: And I really think the Lions probably smartly just looked

227
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,079
Speaker 1: at this whole season like it's preseason. You know, we're

228
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,839
Speaker 1: trying to establish him. We're playing our best guys. I

229
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: don't care if it means something or not. We knew

230
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: we weren't win the super Bowl the day I took

231
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: the job. You know, they're playing our best dudes, and

232
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: we want to figure out who's who here. And then

233
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 1: you know, like that's playing for something here too. If

234
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: he's if he's not Detroit starter, he'll be start somewhere else,

235
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: and he's probably gonna be one of the thirty two

236
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: next year, probably, you know, in some way shape or

237
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: for him. I mean, it might be him in the

238
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 1: first pick in the second round. You know, you know

239
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 1: that type of deal, you know, one of those situations, uh,

240
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 1: speaking Wednesday, Davante Adams says he doesn't envision playing the

241
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 1: entire week eight teen games against the Lions. I don't

242
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,199
Speaker 1: think at all. Well, this is another trend, by the way,

243
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: that a lot of coaches come out Monday Tuesday, We're

244
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: playing our guys. It's football game, and then all of

245
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: a sudden they bump in the trainers in the hallway

246
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: and they're like, are you really gonna play Davante or

247
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: somebody gets in their ear, and and then gradually as

248
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: the week goes on, it's like, we think it's better.

249
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: He's like one of the most valuable players your whole offense.

250
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 1: You know, they're a couple. They're gonna play those guys

251
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,959
Speaker 1: a little bit because they could they get the home

252
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: field advantage in the playoffs. You don't want him sitting

253
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: for two weeks. You get get your jersey dirty, throw

254
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: a fall two preseason games. Yeah, exactly. And there are

255
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: some guys that's worth noting. Mike Evans, you know, like

256
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,719
Speaker 1: he wants to get to a thousand yards so he

257
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: can say I've been a thousand gonn receiver every year.

258
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: So he'll probably get his six or seventy yards, and

259
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: then why isn't Mike Evans in the game anymore. Right,

260
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 1: there could be some incentives bradies out and but you

261
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: know Aaron Rodgers isn't throwing to Davante Adams over the

262
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: middle where Davante Adams can get hit and play calling

263
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 1: changes and yeah, exactly, you know they're not. They're not

264
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: dialing up some long passes there for Rogers where he

265
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: might get sacked in the pocket right the third fourth ring,

266
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: left tackle. You're you know, you gotta protect for seven

267
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 1: seconds or the franchise. Yeah. Darren Waller with back knee

268
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: and COVID was limited in Wednesday's practice. I mean, he's

269
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: gonna play if he can do anything. I mean, it's

270
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: a desperate it's playoffs there. Yeah, they're in that mode.

271
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: But man, as everyone knows, I mean, if it's a

272
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: playoff game, these dudes that are on the bad side

273
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: of questionable, they're gonna play. Yeah, and it's a it's

274
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 1: a yeah. Keishawn Vaughan with Rady Jones might be sneaky

275
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,560
Speaker 1: again this week. You made a couple of bucks on Zai.

276
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 1: It's a little money on Z. Jones flew over my head. Uh.

277
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: Keishawn Vaughn with ribs practicing in full and week e

278
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: teen for the Panthers against to play against the Panthers

279
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: might be a good guy to play a lot. The

280
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 1: only other back is Levy on Bell. They're not going

281
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: to hand the ball to Levy on Bell twenty times, right,

282
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: And I mean Vaughan's played a little, but I bet

283
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: they also want to evaluate him. Can he be the

284
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: guy that's interesting? Yeah, I'm sure they'll keep the number

285
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: one line out there. I don't know how much Brady plays, right,

286
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: So what you know? You mentioned Evan's he was limited today, Um,

287
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: so I bet he tries to get that number though.

288
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 1: I think it's important probably, and there are some guys

289
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: that have contract incentives and things like that too. Jalen

290
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: Hurts was limited Wednesday. Um, I don't think he's gonna play. Yeah,

291
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: they say he's not in any danger of missing Week

292
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: eighteen against Dallas, but is I know it's not locked up,

293
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: but isn't it heavily? Like? I mean, Philly's got a spot.

294
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 1: I think they're either six or seven. But I think

295
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 1: there's a really really good chance they're playing Tampa in

296
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: Tampa week one, no matter what, you know, I think

297
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: that's close to being set. Yeah, So yeah, what are

298
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: you doing? Yeah, rest everybody. The Browns placed cy Tachi

299
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 1: Tachi on the injured reserved night right, Yeah, they got

300
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: beat up in that game. They did get beat up

301
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: in that game. Um, that's one of the dangers of

302
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: people saying, well, the Browns just didn't really care. If

303
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: you walk into an NFL football field not caring, everybody cares,

304
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna get hurt. You know. The back seven of

305
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: their defense was pretty beat up in general. And yeah, um,

306
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: the Chargers activated tighten Jared Cook from the reserve COVID

307
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 1: nineteen list. He could be a guy to you know,

308
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: and he's gonna play probably just about every step its

309
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: arm hurt. Remember he had done I think he is. Yeah,

310
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 1: I don't think he's been back since then. I'll have

311
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: to look at how how the Raiders have been against

312
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: opposing tight ends. But you know, he's gonna play, Hena,

313
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: He's gonna play a lot. I mean, how I mean,

314
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: can you say the same thing about god Art or

315
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: Kelsey or I don't know how mean? True starter? How much?

316
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: How much of these guys play right? Right? Right? Cook

317
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: might be a top twelve type of guy. Jimmy Garoppolo

318
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: with a thumb injury was limited in practice on Wednesday.

319
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: Gets an interesting one because they need it. They need it.

320
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: Um Lance was good, but Jimmy doesn't. Better chance to win? Yeah,

321
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're trying to get into the playoffs Shore,

322
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: you'd probably go with Jimmy if he's healthy. And you

323
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: can't look at it like I will save him till

324
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: a wild card round. You know we're gonna win this

325
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: game there. I mean, I think it's kind of unfortunate

326
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: because I would love to see them as one of

327
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: the seven that are in. I don't know if they

328
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: beat the Rams, and I don't think the Saints so

329
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: loudes of the Falcons. So I think you're gonna I

330
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: think you're gonna get the Saints in there and not

331
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: the Niners. Yeah, I think so too. Nobody wants to

332
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: see that. No, that's not pretty. Uh. Clyde Edwards Hilaire

333
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: with the shoulder injury, remained sidelined in Wednesday's practice. Did

334
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: they have in to play for? Well, they could, they

335
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 1: could get the one. They could still get the one,

336
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 1: but they now also lose the tiebreaker to the Bengals,

337
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: so they want to fall in the bills, right, I call.

338
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 1: The Bills can't get the one. They could fall to

339
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: four though with a loss, right probably, Yeah, the more

340
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 1: I think about it, right, they could get they could

341
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 1: be somewhere between one and two road games they get

342
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl or one. I mean a divisional

343
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: home game is big, ye, I mean it wouldn't. I

344
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: wouldn't change much if I was torn between third or fourth,

345
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: you know, the resting guys. But defferently one and four

346
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: is huge. Yeah, there's a difference between two and three. Yeah,

347
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 1: it's a home game in second round. Yeah, exactly, you know,

348
00:17:53,960 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 1: so that matters. That matters. Um uh. Dalton Riser is

349
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: on injured reserve for the Broncos. As Teddy Bridgewater goes

350
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: on injured reserve for the Broncos, they become a team

351
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: you can't you can't play any of you because, yeah,

352
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: Kareem Jackson goes on injury reserve, he's probably done. Yeah

353
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 1: he's like thirty nine years old. Yeah, so they that's

354
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: that team is done. Yeah. I don't know who they playing,

355
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:22,719
Speaker 1: and they're playing K C. K. They're gonna lose, you know,

356
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: but I don't think you know, like that's a good

357
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 1: example is my homes Kelsey Hill in in the fourth quarter. No,

358
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: probably not right, right, you think they're you know, it's

359
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 1: a smash spot and it could be for a half, right,

360
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna get enough and a half to push yourself.

361
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: That's why I don't love the idea. I know, I

362
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: know some leagues do this of playing a two week final. Yeah, yeah,

363
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: unless you're gonna do it like weeks seventeen is this

364
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: week sixteen and seventeen, or if you push that in

365
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: the week eighteen, it's too unfair to the good teams

366
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: that guy. Yeah, you know right, you're not gonna have

367
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: guys playing it's it's it's not I think almost anything

368
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: that week that counts or fantasy is wrong. Yeah, that's why.

369
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 1: That's why you have dfs. Do that. Actually, like how

370
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: our league does it is we give twenty five bucks

371
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: to whatever team gets the number one score this week

372
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: only it's just a standalone prize, so people don't totally

373
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: dog it and have something to root for, you know something.

374
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: Robby Anderson, with a quad injury, did not practice on Wednesday. Um,

375
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 1: he's probably yeah, he's probably done for the year. That

376
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: offense is almost unusable to really bad Manuel Sanders did

377
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,400
Speaker 1: not practice today. He's dealing with a knee injury. He's

378
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: kind of worthless at this point, Um gave Davis is interesting. Yeah,

379
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: I think so. Bakdierry practicing today for the Packers. Do

380
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 1: they play him in this game? It wouldn't be bad

381
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,159
Speaker 1: to get him some actions. So it's the thing, and

382
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: that's actually a tough question because would you love to

383
00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:01,640
Speaker 1: see him play second preseason type role. Yeah, it's we're

384
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: gonna send you out there and get you two series

385
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: block a couple of people get there. Do you haven't

386
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 1: been on the field all year? We want you and

387
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: you get two weeks to rest your aching bones after that. Yeah,

388
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: I would play I'm a series or two. Yeah. Uh Ka,

389
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 1: Darius Tony limited today coming back from that shoulder injury.

390
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 1: Unusable offense, but with some life and adventure and it's waiting. Hi.

Speaker 1: JD power dot Com Slash Awards Fun Fantasy Commodities Possible. Yeah.

402
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts for the Hamstring, was not at practice on Wednesday.

403
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: The SATs are going to win. There's no way that

404
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 1: he play. They probably shut him down, like do you

405
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: shut my Ryan? Now? I think I would have fight

406
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,199
Speaker 1: a second to Kellen Mond if you had somebody. If

407
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 1: they don't anybody, they don't have that, h That's it's

408
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: this problem. The Broncos activated Jerry Judy from the reserve

409
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen list, but so yeah, he might as well

410
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,199
Speaker 1: be Jerry. Yeah. This picture of him you could put

411
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: on a milk carton all right, Right, you know, Sutton's

412
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: been there all year. Yeah, it's just not good. The

413
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: Texans activated David Johnson from the reserve COVID nineteen lists,

414
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: and then they'll play hard. Yeah. I mean it's such

415
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 1: a weird week. Maybe you'd want to use barkhead or Johnson.

416
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: I can see them using both of them. Were gonna

417
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: have a try out here for next year. Yeah, I

418
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,640
Speaker 1: mean that's what the whole season has been for them.

419
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 1: So we k teams no different. Yeah, Patrick's certain cornerback

420
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: is highly questionable. According to who the Broncos gonna play

421
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: vic Van, It's gonna be Jerry. Nobody else is gonna

422
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: play corner too. Right, Yeah, for get about the broadcast.

423
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:06,679
Speaker 1: How about this one. The Dallas Cowboys play Micah Parsons

424
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:11,199
Speaker 1: on the reserve COVID nineteen lists. What are they playing for?

425
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: Though they've got the divisions one, they're playing for seating Essentially,

426
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: it could be like a three four two three four spot,

427
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: which I think for them matters too, because you know,

428
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: do they do you want to go to a cold

429
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 1: weather where could they go? They could go to They

430
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: could host Arizona, right or the Rams or the Rams

431
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: most likely um or I mean, you're gonna host of

432
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 1: round one game either way. They're not going to green

433
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,959
Speaker 1: Band round one, no, and you are if you get

434
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,360
Speaker 1: to the championship the way, you're going to green Band.

435
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: So it's all about the second round either going to

436
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 1: Tampa or the Rams or Cardinals or you know, yeah,

437
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: so what I mean, so, I don't know how much

438
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: I mean you fire ups. I don't either one of

439
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: those teams plays hard, Austin Scott, Boston Scott. Maybe it's

440
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 1: a big Pollard game or something like someone one of

441
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: those guys. Maybe it's Howard. You know, there might be

442
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 1: a sleeping guy there. Keeping someone's going to carry the

443
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:19,959
Speaker 1: ball whether yeah, change the offense. Uh. When asked if

444
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: Jamaar Chase will play him week eighteen against the Browns,

445
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: Zach Taylor said, potentially that's a that's a now isn't

446
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 1: playing either. Yeah. Joe Mixon is out. He tests a

447
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:34,360
Speaker 1: positive for COVID on Wednesday, so that takes that off

448
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: the table. Joe Burrow is not playing. He's dealing with

449
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: that knee injury. I wouldn't expect to see t Higgins

450
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: out there, maybe Tyler Boyd, because you have to have

451
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: somebody has to play wide receiver for you. People forget

452
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: about that, like, oh, when you rest everybody, but you

453
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,120
Speaker 1: gotta somebody has to be out there. Yeah, you gotta

454
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 1: play people with bodies. They can't play every snap. Uh.

455
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: Justin Fields will be back in. Yeah, So it's interesting

456
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: he could be if the fast starter this week. Yeah,

457
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: I mean he's relevant no matter what's going on, gonna

458
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: let it fly. I think they play everybody. I mean

459
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,479
Speaker 1: they're trying to. They're playing the Vikings. Who you know

460
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: Cousins got brought back today. Yeah, I assume he'll play.

461
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: We guess guess. I mean I will find out. I

462
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 1: guess more in the as a week goes on. But

463
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you Both those coaches are working for their job.

464
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 1: Bruce Arians told reporters today that Ronald Jones is in

465
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: a walking boot that lsu back to van that usually

466
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 1: leads you to not playing this week potentially next. I

467
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 1: don't think four nets to do back to the playoffs.

468
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: I don't think he is either, so that seem could

469
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: be in big trouble. Yeah. I was actually thinking about

470
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: them a little today, not through fantasy lens, but it

471
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: might be relevant considering the loss of Godwin Fournette Jones

472
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 1: a B. Does Brady go into Arian's office and say

473
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: two and three tits all day long? Yeah? Great, o

474
00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 1: j Gronk, I'll throw twenty times and you know right,

475
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 1: but I bet those tight ends get a quiet little

476
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 1: spike there and see a lot more snaps you must

477
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: have to. I mean it trotten out Miller and those guys.

478
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 1: I mean, he doesn't trust those dudes. One last thing

479
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 1: I want to talk about this one. Derrick Henry designated

480
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:23,439
Speaker 1: for return this week. That doesn't mean he's back, But

481
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,639
Speaker 1: do you think he needs a carrier too? In this

482
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: they're set up for the bye too. Acres is probably

483
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: in the same spot, right, I mean, I just want

484
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: to get these guys a couple of carriers. Okay, let's

485
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 1: knock the rust off now as opposed to that's the

486
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: bad r R. Yeah, you'd really need the dock in

487
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: there to running backs a little different. Running backs a

488
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: little different. Though you're running with the football and big

489
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: guys are chasing you. You've knocked the rush off pretty quickly.

490
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 1: And I like Acres, but Henry's a lot more important

491
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: to his team right now than Acres is. Obviously. I

492
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: think I say no and say, you get two more

493
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: weeks without getting touched, and you're just we hope you

494
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 1: don't come out rusty. Yeah, you know, and Foreman could

495
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: work in a little like the thing you have to

496
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: worry about with with him. Um, it's a foot. It

497
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: was a foot injury, so it's not like he was

498
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: doing a lot of running necessarily. Yeah, conditioning might be

499
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: a bit of an issue. So hey, Derek, we want

500
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 1: you to kind of spend these next couple of weeks. Yeah,

501
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: you're practicing. We designated your return because we got to

502
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: we could have a chance to get to buy here

503
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: and if we do that that would be the third

504
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: week of this then we have to activate you. But

505
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: want them to do if a couple of football players

506
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 1: at least I mean biking this whole time, or running

507
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: in the pool or you know, doing sprints if that,

508
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 1: you know, if the foots fine is not the same.

509
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: And I just think I think Foreman is a smash

510
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 1: start this week in DFS. I think it's pretty good too. Yeah.

511
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 1: Yeah against Houston against Houston now the worst run defense

512
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 1: in the league and they've been to want to run

513
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: it and run it and get out of there, you

514
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 1: know right now, it's a good spot. I mean that

515
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: he could be a he might be one of the

516
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: best bone all weeks. Yeah, and I bet he won't

517
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: be super expensive either, right, that's a good one. Yeah,

518
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: so it would be interesting. Uh. One last and Antonio

519
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: Gibbs from activated from the reserve COVID nineteen lists. But

520
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: does that mean they'll play them? Maybe? What with that team?

521
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, they're playing the Giants. Yeah, I'm kind of intrigued.

522
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: They might run, They might decide to to say, we

523
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 1: gotta see what Jared Patterson has. Yeah, they've kind of

524
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: done that though, I mean, why activate him if you're

525
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: not gonna play him? Right, I have more games? Probably

526
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,239
Speaker 1: have to activate him off the reserve COVID nineteen lists, right, right, right,

527
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: I guess that's true. Yeah, because he's had other injuries.

528
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: I mean I forgot he was on for COVID. Yeah. Yeah,

529
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 1: it's it's gonna be interesting. What we're gonna do this

530
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:45,199
Speaker 1: week is we'll do a DFS team tomorrow for the
