Speaker 1: Live of Marcus Grant. That is Adam Ran, that is

11
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: Michael f florio, and we have made it all the

12
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: way to Friday. We have apparently some kind of sports

13
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: exchange program. Europeans are in New York Ryder Cup destroying us,

14
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 1: destroying us right now.

15
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 2: Thanks for that.

16
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: Not looking great.

17
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, we said about now we got a we got

18
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 2: a game in ire List.

19
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: Yeah.

20
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 2: The funny thing is is that that game starts earlier

21
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: than Arsenal's match on Sunday.

22
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: Which is kind of wild. I always have to deal

23
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: record Arsenal because I don't wake up that early.

24
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 3: You know.

25
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers kickoff Week four in Dublin

26
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: versus the Vikings, presented by Madden the NFL twenty six

Speaker 1: required for NFL Plus visit plus dot NFL dot com

30
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: for terms. Here are the top fantasy scores for the

31
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: Steelers and Vikings. Aaron Rodgers a fringe QB one at

32
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,039
Speaker 1: this point. Jalen Warren having a good start to his year.

33
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 1: You see three Vikings there in the middle of the

34
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: Vikings defense. Justin Jefferson, Jordan Mason all kind of hanging

35
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: around in the top twenty five, and the DK Metcalf

36
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: just outside the top thirty at his position. So we're

37
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: gonna go some starts, some sins, and some sleepers were

38
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: this Dublin game and rank If you are starting anybody,

39
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: who would it be?

40
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 2: I mean, Justin Jefferson. I think that a lot of

41
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 2: people are panicking so far. You saw the numbers there

42
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 2: a moment ago. He's the He's a high end wide

43
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 2: receiver three right now, But that is not going to be.

44
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: That's not sustainable. He's gonna progress back to the main

45
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: to be the guy that we expected him to be

46
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 2: when he was drafted. And I get a lot of

47
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 2: questions people are concerned about Carson Wentz, but I said,

48
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 2: you know what, Carson Wentz has been a very effective

49
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 2: quarterback in this league when he gets an opportunity to play.

50
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 2: And anytime we see somebody come to Minnesota to play quarterback,

51
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: the first order of business is how do I take

52
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 2: care of Justin Jefferson. So I have no hesitation with

53
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson obviously in redraft leagues, but even if you're

54
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 2: sitting here playing in a DFS state, I really like

55
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson. I don't mind paying up for him this week.

56
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be a.

57
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 4: Good by low opportunity this weekend before he plays.

58
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: And it kind of sad to.

59
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 4: See that the Vikings top scorer is their defense, But

60
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 4: you did see Jordan Mason on that list. He went

61
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 4: off last week for over one hundred and ten yards,

62
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 4: two scores, twenty.

63
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 5: Four Fantasy points.

64
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 4: He finished seventh at the position, and going back to

65
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 4: last season, we have seen that this guy could play

66
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 4: at a very high level. When he's given a chance

67
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 4: to start, and considering that it's going to be Carson Wentz,

68
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised if we see a very run

69
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 4: heavy attack by the Vikings, especially considering the Steelers are

70
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 4: top ten in yards allowed to running backs. And if

71
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 4: our football players are over there and the golfers are here,

72
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 4: does that mean we sent all of our real athletes

73
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 4: across the pond?

74
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 2: I don't understand. What what do you mean?

75
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 5: Because football players are real athletes.

76
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 4: Golfers, I mean they don't run, they don't do anything.

77
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: Let's en to the sis. Who from this matchup were

78
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: you avoiding this week?

79
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 4: I'm sitting Aaron Rodgers, who also cannot run at all.

80
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 4: He is the lowest air yards per throw in the

81
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:55,119
Speaker 4: NFL this season, the fourth lowest success rate. He has

82
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 4: been running hot touchdown wise, that is what has elevated

83
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 4: him in fantasy. In fact, right now, his touchdown rate

84
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 4: would be his best since twenty twenty and the third best.

85
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: Of his career.

86
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 4: So I expect that to regulate. And he has the

87
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 4: fewest yards per attempt against blitz this season, and he's

88
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 4: getting a very blitz heavy Vikings defense.

89
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 1: Well, I'm gonna go with DK Metcalf as a guy

90
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: to maybe avoid this week because you mentioned the touchdown

91
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,799
Speaker 1: run for Aaron Rodgers, and look, he has seven touchdown passes.

92
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: Four of them came in the first game, which means

93
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: he's already started to slow down a little bit. The

94
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: problem for DK Metcalf is that this is kind of

95
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: a low volume, fairly inefficient passing offense, and they're spreading

96
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: the ball around to a bunch of guys. Six different

97
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: Steelers have double digit targets. Six different Steelers have at

98
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: least seven receptions. Going up against a good Vikings defense

99
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: makes me a little bit nervous. I would try to

100
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: get away from DK if you can. So I get

101
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: this two hour Sleepers for the week, and I'm gonna

102
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 1: go back, or at least for this game. I should say,

103
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back to the Vikings side and tell

104
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 1: you about Carson Wentz rank Linz in the in fact

105
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 1: that Wins has been around this league for a while

106
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: and given opportunities, he has generally played well. I know

107
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: the numbers weren't necessarily great, especially yardage wise last week,

108
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: but this is a Steelers defense that is giving up

109
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: a lot of passing yards the seventh most two hundred

110
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: and forty six passing yards per game, allowing more than

111
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 1: seventy percent completions, wins, a lot of easy, lot of

112
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: high percentage throws. I sort of think they keep that

113
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: going and if the Vikings can get yards after the

114
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 1: Catchens and being a pretty nice day for Carson Wentz,

115
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: you know.

116
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 2: What, I actually just went and picked up Carson Wentz

117
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 2: in my league of record. I have Jayden Daniels, so

118
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 2: that we'll talk about that in a little bit. So

119
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to go with Carson Wentz because I

120
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 2: went with Michael Pennox last week. So I had to

121
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 2: make a rage. Jalen Warren, I think I'm a little

122
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 2: bit generous calling him a sleeper. He's been pretty good.

123
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: It's such as have increased in each game this season.

124
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: He's had at least eighty scrimmage yards in back to

125
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 2: back games, thirteen points in each one of those. Actually

126
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: in every game this season, the Vikings have allowed the

127
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 2: fifth most rushing attempts to running backs this season. Obviously,

128
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 2: with the Brian Flores d you've got to be a

129
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 2: little apprehensive, but what we've seen out of Jalen Warren

130
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 2: so far is that he is the true bell coal

131
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 2: in his back, and all the shares I have of

132
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 2: Caleb Johnson are just sitting there on my bench.

133
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

134
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: I picked up Kenneth Gainwell in a couple of spots

135
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: just because of that. Oh, by the way, I mentioned

136
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,119
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz as a sleeper in case you didn't figure

137
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: it out. JJ McCarthy not going to be available for

138
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 1: the Vikings coming up this weekend, so that game kicks

139
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 1: off the Sunday slate. But we already have started Week

140
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: four with a nail bider down in the desert. Sam

141
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: Donold and Aaron Rodgers the only two quarterbacks since two

142
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: thousands who beat the Cardinals Arizona State and the Arizona

143
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: Wildcats in the state of Arizona. Sort Of fitting because

144
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 1: last night kind of felt like Pac twelve after.

145
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: Dark a little bit.

146
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: We learned that what else did we learn.

147
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 2: It play Northern Arizona at some point his San Clemente

148
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 2: team probably could have beaten them. But at any event,

149
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 2: we learned that Marvin Harrison can indeed catch the football.

150
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 2: He's getting a lot of criticism both online and with

151
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 2: Cardinals fans and everybody. When you watch his reaction to

152
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 2: me making that catch, you could tell how much that

153
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 2: meant to him. Obviously, he's a very talented player. It

154
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 2: has not gone well for him so far during his

155
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 2: young NFL career. And while we sit here and we

156
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 2: make comments about it or whatever, you have to realize

157
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 2: he is a great talent. He is going to be

158
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 2: a really good wide receiver in this league. It's been

159
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: a tough go. I've seen other wide receivers have tough guys.

160
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 2: I'm old enough to remember this is gonna be my

161
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 2: get off my lawn moment. But like I remember Jerry

162
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 2: Rice struggling when he first came into the NFL. So

163
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: I get it. Take your victory laps right now. While

164
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 2: Marvin Harrison's a little bit down, but he is going

165
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 2: to eventually be one of the top receivers in this league.

166
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

167
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 4: Him and Kyler Murray combined for like single digit Fantasy

168
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 4: points until halfway through the fourth quarter, and then they exploded.

169
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 4: I didn't love the usage that I saw for the

170
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 4: Cardinals running backs last night. Trey Benson was playing the

171
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 4: James Connor role, which is dominating usage on early downs,

172
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 4: but Emery de Mericato was playing the previous role that

173
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 4: was filled by Trey Benson, playing third downs and two

174
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 4: men drills.

175
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 5: Now, perhaps this was.

176
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 4: Just a short week they didn't want to put too

177
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 4: much on Benson. What I expected more usage out of him.

178
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 4: And if this is how it's gonna look like, it's

179
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 4: gonna be, keep them as.

180
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 5: Both just like RB two or flex options.

181
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the running backs on the other side.

182
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: And what I realize is that Kenneth Walker has a

183
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: Zach Charbonay problem. Walker was the more explosive of the

184
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: two backs. He got you a lot of big plays

185
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: in the rushing game. That is what they love him for.

186
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: The problem is, unless he breaks a long one for

187
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: a touchdown, his touchdown upside goes down significantly. It was

188
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: Zach Sharbona getting those opportunities. I look at somebody who

189
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: started Zach Scharbonay was glad to see him get the one,

190
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,079
Speaker 1: much like the ref did to a JSN. I was

191
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: giving JSN a little bit of side eye after that

192
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 1: whole day call called back all my second rushing touchdown

193
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: for sharbon Ay. But he's gonna be the guy that

194
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: get those six pointers even if he's not super efficient

195
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: with the rest of his rushing attempts there. So that

196
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 1: is what we learned from Thursday Night Football.

197
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 2: The week is off and running to call him Kine

198
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 2: Kenny Walker, I'm not doing We killed that yesterday.

199
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not doing Yeah, that's not doing it. Daniel

200
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: Jones has been one of the talk of the NFL

201
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 1: so far this season with the way he and the

202
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 1: Colets have played. Now they come to Los Angeles in

203
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: a big game against the Los Angeles Rams, and I'm

204
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,199
Speaker 1: telling you, I think you can start Danny Dimes, Indiana

205
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: Jones whatever we're calling him that we named the dog Indiana. Look,

206
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: he's playing really, really well, obviously, But the biggest reason

207
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: I think you could have some faith in him is

208
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: because Mbile quarterbacks have hurt the Rams over the last

209
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: few years. You go back to twenty twenty three, nine

210
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: different quarterbacks have had at least forty rushing yards against

211
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 1: LA in that span. I know that doesn't seem like

212
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: a lot, but you also figure they're not playing a

213
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: guy who's gonna get out of the pocket and run

214
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: every single week. We've seen Jalen Hurts have big games.

215
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray obviously, guys like Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen,

216
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: but I think with the threat of Tyler Warren in

217
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: the middle of the field is the guy that the

218
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 1: Rams have to pay attention to. That potentially opened some

219
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: scrambling lanes for Daniel Jones, so I liked him keep

220
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,959
Speaker 1: it going this week against the Rams. Yeah.

221
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 4: The funny part is when I was in Indiana this summer,

222
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 4: everyone there wanted Anthony Richardson, but I'm sure they're happy

223
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 4: with Danny Diamonds and you mentioned Tyler Warren, Marcus.

224
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 5: I think he is a must start this week.

225
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: The Rams.

226
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 4: The one thing they've struggled with consistently outside of running

227
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 4: quarterbacks is tight ends. Last season, they allowed the most

228
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 4: fantasy points per game to the position. We saw Dallas

229
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 4: Goddard have a big day against them last week, and

230
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 4: I think this could be a game where the Colts

231
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 4: have to throw more than they have had to in

232
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 4: recent weeks because the Rams offense will put up points,

233
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 4: so more volume only means more Yak, I'm so confident

234
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 4: in Tyler Warren this week. I wore him on my

235
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 4: shirt today. So go ahead and get Tyler Warren into

236
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 4: your lineups this week.

237
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm hoping that's not the kiss of death

238
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: for those of us who are starting Tyler Lawren. Yeah,

239
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: let's let's hope for good things. Moving on to the

240
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: Browns and the Lions and Rankeon looking at a guy.

241
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 2: Who used to be the quarterback for the Yes, Jared Goff.

242
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 2: I'm going to say, beware of Jared Goff when you're

243
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 2: going up. This is going to be a theme moving

244
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: out throughout the course of the season, is that when

245
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 2: you're matched up against the Browns, you might want to

246
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 2: reconsider making a change at the quarterback position. Jared Goff

247
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 2: is top thirteen fantasy points in just one game this season,

248
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 2: and the Browns have allowed only one quarterback to score

249
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: more than twelve points in a game this year, and

250
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 2: that was Lamar Jackson. Cleveland has eleven sacks the season.

251
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 2: Goff was rattled by four sacks against Green Bay in

252
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 2: Week one. So I'm going to say, use a little

253
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 2: caution now, with five quarterbacks out with an injury or

254
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 2: somewhere similar to that, don't be crazy. Don't just go

255
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 2: out there and just willy nilly pulled Jared Goff out

256
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 2: of your lineup, because he does have ability. He can

257
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 2: go out there and torch a good defense. I'm just

258
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,839
Speaker 2: saying that if you have another good option on your bench,

259
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 2: if you've been streaming quarterbacks that you might want to

260
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 2: you might want to consider that. Yeah.

261
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 4: And on the other side, I think you should be

262
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 4: starting Quinn Judkins. He had a breakout game last week.

263
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 4: He dominated volume. I think he had all but one

264
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 4: running back carry in that game. He went for over

265
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 4: one hundred yards and they touchdown. And that came against

266
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 4: a really tough Green Bay Packers defense. And the thing

267
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 4: is he's only been with the Browns for a couple

268
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,439
Speaker 4: of weeks. I think it's possible that we see him

269
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 4: get more and more utilized in the passing game.

270
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: And the Lions.

271
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 4: I know, on paper, on your fantasy app it might

272
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,199
Speaker 4: say it is a tough matchup.

273
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 5: I'm not saying it's not.

274
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,599
Speaker 4: But they do allow a lot of explosive runs to

275
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 4: running backs, and Judkins is very explosive.

276
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 5: As we saw last week.

277
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 4: So I think a lot of rookies are in play

278
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 4: this week, and especially the Browns running back.

279
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: It's become a two headed backfield there. Dylan Sampson seems

280
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: like the odd man out it's Judkins and Jerome Ford

281
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: right now. Moving on to the Packers and the Cowboys,

282
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: big one on Sunday night football game with absolutely no

283
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: storylines that nobody is talking about in any way, shape

284
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: or form. I'm the Cowboys defense. It's bad.

285
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 2: They've struggled a little bit. I think that Kenny Clark

286
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 2: has done some things there that have been pretty good.

287
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 2: But we've seen quarterbacks being able to take advantage of

288
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 2: that secondary, which is why Jordan Love is a must

289
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 2: start this week.

290
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: Might even be my quarterback one.

291
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: I think that you know, he made some He made

292
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 2: a couple of bad decisions against the Browns last week. However,

293
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 2: a lot of that had to do with how well

294
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,199
Speaker 2: the Browns defense was playing. Jordan Love is going to

295
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 2: take advantag He's going to bounce back this week. He's

296
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 2: gonna take advantage of his opportunities. Jordan Love is going

297
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 2: to go out there and spread the ball all over

298
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 2: the field. He like he's prone to do as long

299
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 2: as he cannot turn the ball over, and I don't

300
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 2: anticipate him doing that in this one. He had a

301
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: long stretch until last week of going with gains without

302
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 2: an interception. I think he restarts that streak this week

303
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 2: against the Dallas Cowboys. So Jordan Love is a must

304
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 2: start quarterback.

305
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 1: So I'm going to go out on a limb and

306
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: try and pinpoint one Packers wide receiver ilud Lock. This

307
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: is There's no way this blows up in my face.

308
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,319
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna go with the Romeo Dobbs, who right

309
00:13:58,320 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: now is sort of leading in a lot of them

310
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: tricks that we like from a wide receiver, talking about

311
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: routes run, talking about air yards per target, all of

312
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: those things. Knowing that the Cowboys are giving up a

313
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: lot of big plays in the passing game. I know

314
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: I've heard a lot of chatter on behalf of Matthew Golden.

315
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 1: I know Dantavian Wick is a guy who gets a

316
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: lot of targets. All this means is that Malie Keith

317
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: is going to be the guy that gets the most

318
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: Fantasy points. But I'm sticking with Romeo Dobbs for the

319
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: time being. Moving on our next game, it's going to

320
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: be the Chiefs and the Ravens, and just like we

321
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: all would have predicted, one of these teams is going

322
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: to be one and three after this game is all

323
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: said and done. Just kind of a wild state of affairs, Florida.

324
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 1: I'm looking here at the rundown and things must be

325
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: bad for a noted Isaiah Pachecko Truther to be propping

326
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 1: up Kareem Hunt this week.

327
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I hate this. I hate everything about this.

328
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 4: I have Isaiah Pichecko on a lot of fantasy teams

329
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 4: and I want him to.

330
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 5: Be a thing.

331
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 4: But unfortunately, Kareem Hunt is seeing a lot of volume

332
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 4: this season.

333
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,119
Speaker 5: And not only is he seeing.

334
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 4: Volume, valuable touches like he is getting the goal on

335
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 4: work for the Chiefs right now, and that could come

336
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 4: in handy because no team has allowed more touchdowns to

337
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 4: running backs rushing wise than the Ravens have this year.

338
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 4: You also see him get utilized in the passing game

339
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 4: and no team has allowed more catches to running backs

340
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 4: than the Ravens. So, unfortunately, Kareem Hunt the only chief

341
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 4: running back to reach double digits in a game this season.

342
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 5: I think he is a sleeper this week.

343
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 2: But one of the things we saw out of this

344
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 2: Ravens defense against Detroit on Monday night is that they

345
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 2: allowed a pair of running backs to go out there

346
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 2: and really get after them, which is why I would

347
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 2: feel comfortable starting both Kareem Hunt and Isaiah Pachecko. Again,

348
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 2: this is one of those situations where I was hoping

349
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 2: I've been keeping Isaiah Pachecko on the bench and been

350
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 2: trying to use some other options. But this is going

351
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 2: to be an Isaiah Pachecko week for me. I am

352
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 2: going to start him. Hope for the best. Otherwise he's

353
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 2: not going to get many more opportunities on my team anymore.

354
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got a couple of rosters where I'm sort

355
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: of pigeonholed into starting Isaiah Pacheck, right, He's kind of

356
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: holding my breath this That's what I'm hoping it works

357
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: out for me this week. Chargers at the Giants. Obviously,

358
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: the big news around Big Blue is a changing quarterback

359
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: with Jackson Dart. But Florio, you're keeping your eye on

360
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: somebody in the Giants backfield right now.

361
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, someone that I think we're all excited about on

362
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 4: this show. Cam Scataboo, who last week led the team.

363
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 4: He led the Giants and carries rushing yards, targets, catches,

364
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 4: receiving yards, and he scored their only touchdown. The ASU

365
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 4: Giants were out there on Sunday Night Football last week

366
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 4: but no Tyrone Tracy. We're seeing that Dart and Scataboo

367
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 4: have chemistry.

368
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 5: They get along really well.

369
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 4: They're always together and stuff on the field, and we

370
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 4: saw in preseason some chemistry between them, and I think, look,

371
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 4: the Chargers are a tough, tough matchup, but I think

372
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 4: volume wins the day here and that is enough to

373
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 4: have Scataboo in the RB two or a flex option

374
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 4: for your teams.

375
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: Our producer Nick Sheppro is rocking his ASU polo shirt

376
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: right now. I'm sure he's doing it forks up in

377
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: the control room. On the other side, I got a

378
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: deep sleeper for you. It's a Rondez Gadsten the second

379
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: and we saw him make his debut last week and

380
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: was immediately heavily targeted seven targets in just twenty routes run. Look,

381
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: we know there's gonna be enough to go around for

382
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,640
Speaker 1: Lad McConkie and Keenan Allen and Quinton Johnson. I think

383
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: all of those guys have really nice days. The other

384
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 1: part of this is though for a tight end, you

385
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: don't need a ton of production to be a top

386
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: twelve option. I think the Chargers are gonna throw the

387
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,919
Speaker 1: ball enough I think they'll throw it effectively enough that

388
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: if you are looking for tight end help, if you're

389
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: looking to stream the position, that's a pretty good matchup

390
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: for Gadsten and the Chargers coming up this week. But

391
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 1: that's not the only thing we're talking about with this

392
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 1: Chargers Giants matchup. Time for our next gin nugget, where

393
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: we are once again joined by our pal next gen

394
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: Kin And you were looking at some slot options yesterday

395
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: on Slots of fun. I have kind of propped up

396
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: won Dale Robinson. I think you've got some little more

397
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: research to maybe validate my priors here.

398
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it took a little bit of a deeper dive

399
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 3: on it. Once you pointed this out, I was like, ooh,

400
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 3: maybe the Chargers have a little bit of a weakness here,

401
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 3: and it is truly to wide receivers specifically in the

402
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 3: slot here. Now, when you look at the numbers for

403
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 3: wide receivers against the Chargers in the slot, they're bottom

404
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 3: five in receiving yards, yards per target and EPA per

405
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 3: target allowed to wide receivers in the slot. Robinson leads

406
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 3: the NFL with one hundred and sixty three receiving yards

407
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 3: from the slot, and he should have plenty of opportunities

408
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 3: to use this advantage because he has the second highest

409
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 3: route participation rate from the slot this season. Just to

410
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 3: add another layer to this advantage, he is the second

411
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 3: most yards per target versus zone coverage and the Chargers

412
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 3: they've used zone at the fourth highest rate this season

413
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 3: at forty sorry, eighty three point five percent this season.

414
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 3: So combination of all of these things, I mean, we

415
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 3: should assume that the Giants are probably going to be

416
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 3: playing from behind in this game, so he's going to

417
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 3: have game script and he's going to have plenty of

418
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 3: opportunities to win from the slot, and that has been

419
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 3: where the Chargers have been weakest pass defense this season.

420
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely good stuff. Ken. Also, we saw Jackson Dart

421
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: be very aggressive in the preseason when he got his opportunities.

422
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: We'll see if he's willing to take some of those

423
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: downfield shots coming up this week against what's a pretty

424
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: good overall pass defense. Still more to come here on

425
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live. Baker has been cooking so far this

426
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,360
Speaker 1: season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but a tough matchup

427
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 1: coming up, a showdown between he and Jalen Hurts. We'll

428
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: dive into that one coming up after the break. New

Speaker 1: and what you need to know? This via Tom Pellasero.

435
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn has officially ruled out Jaden Daniels and Terry

436
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 1: McLaurin for Sunday. Doctors didn't clear Daniels while McLaurin is

437
00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: week to week, so two big pieces see from the

438
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: Washington Commander's offense Florida. What does this mean for the

439
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: Commies and maybe more importantly for fantasy managers.

440
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, you need to replace Jadon Daniels obviously, and Marcus

441
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 4: Mariota is one route you could go. Last week, I

442
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 4: gave you ran for forty yards and a touchdown, gave

443
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 4: you over twenty fantasy points.

444
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:19,199
Speaker 5: We were hyping him up on.

445
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 2: Game day preview.

446
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 4: You should watch me Yam and Cynthia this Sunday. But

447
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,199
Speaker 4: I would check if fields are party or someone like

448
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 4: that was dropped in our Fantasy Live League, I was

449
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,719
Speaker 4: able to pick up fields and I'm streaming him in

450
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 4: place of Daniels. As for the rest of the Commanders,

451
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 4: the Falcons are really tough against the pass and run

452
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 4: like Deebo would be the only one I think I

453
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:39,360
Speaker 4: would not.

454
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 5: Try to get away from in this matchup.

455
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: Well, that is a perfect segue as we talk about

456
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: this game. You do like Deebo Samuel this week?

457
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 2: No, I really do. I think that we've started to

458
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 2: see some nice things out of Deebo Samuel ever since

459
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 2: he's come over to Washington. One are the things that

460
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 2: we really liked about him when he played in his

461
00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 2: early years in San Francisco is plays like this. Cliff

462
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 2: Kingsbury has been really nice in designing some runs again

463
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 2: for Deebo Samuel, something that really made him special back

464
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 2: in those early days with the forty nine ers, And

465
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 2: now he's really kind of rebounded his career and made

466
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 2: a nice stride not only catching the football but also

467
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 2: running the football. So when I think of Marcus Mariota,

468
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 2: he's clearly not Jaden Daniels, but he does give you

469
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 2: some the threat of rushing that opens it up for Deebo.

470
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 2: So deebo is a pretty much a mustard for me

471
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 2: this week.

472
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 1: I mean, Marcus Marino's been around the leaks, like we

473
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 1: talked about with Carson Wentz, he knows how to move

474
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: an offense. On the other side, we're doing this again.

475
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: We're making Kyle Pitts a sleeper. Here's the thing. He's

476
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: not been great, he hasn't been terrible. He's been just

477
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 1: fine so far this season. I would say the bigger

478
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: problem with Kyle Pitts has just been the general inaccuracy

479
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 1: of Michael Pennock so far. But I do like the

480
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: matchup for Pitts going against Washington fifth most receiving yards

481
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 1: allowed to the tight end position. I know Darnell Mooney

482
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: is coming back, which maybe takes some targets off of

483
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: his plate, but I think the matchup wins the day,

484
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: and again I think should be fairly close and means

485
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 1: the gamescript won't be an issue for Pitts. Meanwhile, we

486
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: will move on to the Eagles and the Bucks, and

487
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 1: looking at this one, I'm a little bit nervous about

488
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield in this one, right. I know it's gonna

489
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: be hard to get away from him, but I will

490
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: tell you that if you can beware of Baker, that

491
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 1: you should be. We mentioned the quarterback injuries. There's probably

492
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 1: not a lot out there on the waiver wire, and look,

493
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: there's still a ceiling there for Baker Mayfield. But no

494
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: Mike Evans this week. Chris Godwin just coming back, making

495
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 1: his first game of this season, and more importantly, going

496
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: against a Philly defense holding opponents to a fifty eight

497
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,880
Speaker 1: percent completion percentage. This is a defense that's faced Dak Prescott,

498
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes and Matthew Stafford in the first three weeks

499
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: and they have not yet allowed a two hundred yard passer.

500
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: So again, maybe hard for you to get away from

501
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield, but just take a look. There's somebody out

502
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,679
Speaker 1: there that maybe you feel a little bit better about.

503
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,439
Speaker 1: It's at least worth investigating getting them in your lineup.

504
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 2: What if you're streaming Baker and Jared Goff like these

505
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 2: are two guys who are good quarterbacks you have tough

506
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 2: decisions about. And you also have a very difficult decision

507
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 2: with Amica Abuka this week, who has been phenomenal coming

508
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 2: out so far with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. A lot

509
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 2: of draft analysts loved him coming into this year, thought

510
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 2: that he was going to be perhaps the number one

511
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 2: wide receiver in this class. He's shown it so far

512
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 2: with at least twelve Fantasy points in each game this year.

513
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 2: I'm really interested to see how the Philadelphia Eagles attack

514
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 2: him this week. With Mike Evans being out he's been

515
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 2: having He's had some cover out there that he's been

516
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 2: able to go out there against single coverage and really flourish.

517
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 2: What happens when you don't have that? Is it going

518
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 2: to be a Mecca Abuka? Is it going to be

519
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 2: Sterling Shepard? One of these guys could break out because

520
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,120
Speaker 2: the Eagles have given up some production to the wide

521
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 2: receiver position. But if you have other I'm still starting

522
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 2: him in some cases. But there are other spots where

523
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 2: I have, like Roma Dunes, where I'm able to keep

524
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 2: him on the bench.

525
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm putting him in, but again, sort of wary

526
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 1: about how it goes against this Eagle defense. But it

527
00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: is now time for Seize the Season presented by Caesars

528
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,880
Speaker 1: Sports Book. As we look a little bit deeper into

529
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: this Bucks Eagles matchup, here is the list of the

530
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: top first touchdown scores in that contest, say Kwon Barkley

531
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: at the top of the list, followed by Jalen Hurts,

532
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 1: he of the Tush Push. You got Bucky Irving, AJ Brown,

533
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,680
Speaker 1: a Mecha Abuka, and DeVonta Smith rounding out the top

534
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: six options there. So for you, though, Florio, which guy

535
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: is the most appealing in that list?

536
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 4: I know most people are gonna go with the running

537
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 4: backer Hurts, but give me AJ Brown because if you're

538
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 4: the Eagles and you look back at your three games

539
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 4: so far, the best your offense has looked is when

540
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 4: you started heavily including AJ Brown, and he has a

541
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 4: history of success against this Bucks defense. Plus they blitzed

542
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 4: at a very high rate. So Hurts, just float a

543
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 4: couple deep down the field for AJ Brown and let

544
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 4: him do his thing, and I think it'll lead to

545
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 4: good results for him.

546
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,119

Speaker 1: and a little shout out to Travis etn. According to

552
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: the Jaguars social media account eating yards like a lawnmower.

553
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: I'm trying to follow the analogy year I'm not tough.

554
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 1: I see the vision. I see the vision, not quite there,

555
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,639
Speaker 1: but either way, Travis eten off to a good start

556
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 1: this season. The Jaguars head up to the Bay Area

557
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: to take on the San Francisco forty nine ers and Floio.

558
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 1: There's a much ballyhooed guy there in Jacksonville, not quite

559
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: living up to expectations so far.

560
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, this one hurts me a lot because I truly

561
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 4: believe Travis Hunter is an elite wide receiver prospect, but

562
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 4: the usage just hasn't been there. His offensive snaps had

563
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 4: dropped from sixty two percent to sixty to fifty three.

564
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 4: The targets had dropped from eight to six to two.

565
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 4: He is yet to top thirty five yards in a

566
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 4: game this season.

567
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 5: So I'm not saying to cut him.

568
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 4: I think he's far too talented for that. But until

569
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 4: we see the usage change and more signs of life,

570
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 4: I think he has to hit the bench in fantasy

571
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 4: right now.

572
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 2: Yeah. And Liam Cohen was talking about this week, like

573
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,919
Speaker 2: taking a slower approach to both offensive and defensive packages

574
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,120
Speaker 2: for Travis Hunter, which isn't great for fantasy, but it's

575
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 2: great for his future NFL career. And speaking of NFL careers,

576
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 2: Ricky Ricky Piersaw has been tremendous over one hundred receiving

577
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 2: yards in two of his first three weeks. He has

578
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 2: been a target monster for the San Francisco forty nine ers.

579
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 2: And for me, I love the Jackson. I love the

580
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 2: matchup against the Jaguars because they've allowed the second most targets,

581
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 2: third most receiving yards to wide receivers this season. They've

582
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 2: allowed the six most fantasy points per game to the

583
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 2: position as well, So regardless of the quarterback, it doesn't

584
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 2: matter because Ricky Piersall is going to go out there

585
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 2: and excel. And I think what we're seeing is him

586
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 2: emerging as the new wide receiver one for the forty

587
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 2: nine ers.

588
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: He's definitely played that way, especially with everybody hurt, He's

589
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: stepped up and been a big part of that offense.

590
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,439
Speaker 1: So far. We got the same and the Bills. In

591
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: fun fact, Spencer Ratler and Tyler Shuck both have the

592
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 1: same birthday and it happens to be on Sunday. I

593
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: think would be an excellent gift for them to give

594
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: to us would be the gift of Alvin Kamara, who

595
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: I like as a sleeper this week, and it's you know,

596
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: it's been a long time, maybe since his rookie year,

597
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 1: we've been able to call Kamara a sleeper. But yeah,

598
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 1: obviously the production has waned over what it was earlier

599
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: in his career, but he's still getting plenty of opportunity.

600
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: Eighty percent of the snaps in the offense, sixty percent

601
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: of the rushing attempts. And yeah, you look at that

602
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: Bill's defense and maybe you immediately are apprehensive, but they

603
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 1: right now ranked last against the run, giving up a

604
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 1: lot and see that yards per carry to opposing running

605
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: back or opposing rushing games I should say six point

606
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: two yards. Maybe he gets more targets. Hopefully he gets

607
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 1: more targets. Somebody should tell Spencer Rattler that it's okay

608
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: to throw the ball to forty one. I do think

609
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: gamescript's going to be an issue, so maybe we see

610
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: more targets, but either way, Kamara should be heavily involved.

611
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, and on the other side, I was talking with

612
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 4: Stevie Johnson this week on Bill's back answer Breaking down

613
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 4: this game, and we think they're going to keep spreading

614
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 4: the ball out at a very high rate, which is

615
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 4: a good thing for Dalton Kincaid because he has been

616
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 4: the top target the last two games for the Bills.

617
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 4: We saw that last year before he was injured as well.

618
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,199
Speaker 4: And with the Bills not airing it out much just

619
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 4: one pass last week of over ten air yards, they're

620
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 4: going with a lot more catch and run stuff and

621
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 4: that suits Dalton Kinkaid's skill set. Plus fourteen or more

622
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 4: Fantasy points in two of three, at least seven in

623
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 4: every game. And this is a matchup a lot like

624
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 4: last week where I don't expect Alan to be under

625
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 4: a ton of pressure, so if he could pick him apart,

626
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 4: that's good things for Dalton Kinkaid.

627
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: It's a Dalton Kincaid on the plus side here. Moving on,

628
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: Bears head into Las Vegas to take on the Raiders.

629
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: Bears coming off a huge passing performance last week. Romodunze

630
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: has been a fantasy favorite early this season.

631
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is one of the things that we expected

632
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 2: to be an eventuality for the Chicago Bears at some point,

633
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 2: was that Roma Dunze was gonna end up as the

634
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 2: number one wide receiver for this seam and it's our happened.

635
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 2: He leads the team with four touchdown receptions. He is

636
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 2: the only other he's the only player other than Keenan

637
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 2: Allen who has scored a touchdown or only receivers scored

638
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 2: a touchdown in every game this year. And what we're

639
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 2: seeing is the chemistry between Caleb Williams. This throw right there,

640
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 2: that was just a ridiculous throw and when he went

641
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 2: back and looked at it in the All twenty twos,

642
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 2: it was even better. But this is who he's been targeting.

643
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 2: I know that there's a lot of available pass catchers,

644
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 2: including DJ Moore. We saw it because four different wide

645
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 2: receivers caught or pass catchers caught touchdowns on Sunday, But

646
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 2: the preferred option is Roma Dunsay. In a great matchup

647
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 2: this week against the Las Vegas Raiders. We saw we heard,

648
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 2: I should say, Ben Johnson talk about this over the

649
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 2: last couple of days about whatever happened against the Cowboys

650
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 2: is in the past. They're looking forward. If this Bears

651
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 2: team wants to prove that last week was no fluke,

652
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 2: they got to have a great, great week against the

653
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 2: Raiders and it starts with Roma Dunzey.

654
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I have Roma Dunsay as a must start as well.

655
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 4: I think he's a wide receiver one. And I also

656
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 4: think Ashton Genti is a must start in this one.

657
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 4: Last week he had a season high end rushing yards.

658
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 4: He also had his first two carries of over fifteen yards.

659
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 4: I think he is just starting to get more and

660
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 4: more comfortable in the NFL. His issue though the first

661
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 4: three weeks he is constantly getting hit behind the line

662
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 4: of scrimmage. This week he faces the Bears, who will

663
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 4: allowed the most yards before contact two running backs in

664
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 4: the NFL. They also have allowed just the most rushing

665
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 4: yards in general to the position, and they struggle with

666
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 4: explosive runs. So try to buy low on gent before

667
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 4: Sunday because I think his breakout game happens in week four.

668
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: Carroll's saying they want to get him more involved. I

669
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 1: think a lot of people feel like he's their best playmaker,

670
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: So we'll see if that happens. The NFL and the

671
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: American Cancer Society created Crucial Catch because early cancer detection

677
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 1: Time Now, four duds to studs when we look at

678
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: some guys who might have let you down last week

679
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: in fantasy and predict whether or not they're gonna bounce

680
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 1: back this week. So, Florio, who is your dud who

681
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: turns into a stud in week four?

682
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 5: I think it's bone Nicks.

683
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 4: And if you were watching bon Nicks last week, you

684
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 4: saw how close he was to a huge Fantasy day.

685
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 5: He missed Marvin Mims twice.

686
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: In the end zone.

687
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 5: One was over sixty yards, one would have been forty yards.

688
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 5: He missed Courtland saw In.

689
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 4: On what would have been a huge game, maybe a touchdown.

690
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 4: But I think he gets better results this week because

691
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 4: he's facing the Bengals. They've allowed the eighth most passing yards,

692
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 4: fifth most touchdowns. They don't create a lot of pressure.

693
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 4: All of that, plus Bonix could run if he has to,

694
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 4: So I like bo on Monday Night.

695
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 2: I would like to congratulate Trevion Henderson for making this

696
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 2: list for the third consecutive week.

697
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: We're gonna get that.

698
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 2: We're gonna keep doing it. We're gona keep putting him

699
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 2: out there. We did see the snapchair go up once

700
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 2: Antonio Gibson put the ball on the ground. But what's

701
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 2: because evident when you're watching the Patriots. I really do

702
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 2: believe that whether it's Gibson or Ramandre Stevenson, one of

703
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 2: those guys is going to have an early down role.

704
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 2: But what we're going to see is Josh McDaniels really

705
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 2: starts to evolve this offense a little bit. Is that

706
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 2: they've got to find creative ways to get the ball

707
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 2: to Henderson. They really need to do that. If this

708
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 2: Patriots offense wants to be successful, they've got to utilize him.

709
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 2: They've done a great job of mixing in guys like

710
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 2: hen Ter Henry and using some of their other available options.

711
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 2: But it's obvious when Henderson is out there, how talented

712
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 2: he is. Find him the ball in creative ways.

713
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: I think this is his breakout week coming, I really do. Meanwhile,

714
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase, it was frustrating last week watching him against

715
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 1: the Vikings. It was frustrating in general just watching the

716
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 1: Bengals offense against the Minnesota Vikings just six targets in

717
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: the game last week, but really wasn't for lack of effort.

718
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: They even got him a rushing attempt just because you

719
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,959
Speaker 1: could see they were trying to get the ball in

720
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: his hands. Now, the matchup obviously not a good one

721
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 1: on paper against the in for Broncos. For what is worth,

722
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: when these teams met last year, jamashe has actually had

723
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: a really big game. The obvious caveat being that it

724
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: was Joe Burrow at quarterback and not Jake Browning. But

725
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,719
Speaker 1: I do think that they try to feed him as

726
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: many opportunities as possible because they know that in order

727
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 1: to be successful, Jamar Chase has to have a big game.

728
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 2: Let's move to the tight end position. I'm gonna go

729
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 2: with David and Joku. It seems like every year there

730
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 2: is a tight end that we panic about. Last year

731
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 2: was Mark Andrews. I believe that people are getting a

732
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 2: little too little, too wild with David and Joku. His

733
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 2: targets have increased, those receptions, I should say, have increased

734
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 2: in each game this season. He is one of seven

735
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 2: tight ends who've had at least five targets in each

736
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 2: game this year. He's got a great matchup this week

737
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 2: against the Lions, who have allowed the fifth most fantasy

738
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 2: points per game to tight ends. We've seen it over

739
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 2: the last couple of weeks. Tight ends, especially Mark Andrews

740
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 2: speaking of did really well against them last week. So

741
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be able to fire up David and Joku

742
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 2: with confidence this week.

743
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: All right, David and Joku back in play for fantasy managers.

744
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 1: Moving to a match up in the AFC South between

745
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans and the Houston Texans and Florio you're

746
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: going you're going deep in the bag for this one

747
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: in that Texans backfield.

748
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, a deep sleeper Woody Marks. Last week he split

749
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 4: snaps with Nick Chubb pretty much down the middle. They

750
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 4: split routes down the middle as well, and Marx. He

751
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 4: only had six carries and two targets, but he's on

752
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 4: the field a lot more and that is what we

753
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:27,399
Speaker 4: want for him.

754
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 5: It's a good matchup.

755
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 4: The Titans have allowed the third most rushing yards and

756
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 4: they are tied for the most rushing touchdowns allowed two

757
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,760
Speaker 4: running backs. But even if you don't have to start

758
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 4: Woody Marks this week, check if he's out there on

759
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 4: the waiver war. He is someone that I want on

760
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 4: my benches.

761
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: If I could get him fight on Woody Marks, I'm

762
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: on board with that absolutely. I'm gonna tell you also

763
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 1: start the Texans defense in this one. See the Texans

764
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: haven't goven up a whole lot of points this season,

765
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 1: which is great because the Titans don't really score a

766
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 1: whole lot of points. This is gonna be, I think,

767
00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: a relatively low scoring affair. If the Titan, rather the

768
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,879
Speaker 1: Texans can get some pressure on cam Ward, I think

769
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 1: they can disrupt some things. Also, new play caller in

770
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 1: effect for the Titans. We'll see how this impacts their offense,

771
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: if there's some sort of learning curve or what have you.

772
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 1: But I think there's an opportunity for the Texans to

773
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 1: really get after it. Look, the reasons Houston has struggled

774
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: has nothing to do with their defense. They can't score

775
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 1: they points offensively, but the defense certainly giving them a

776
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 1: chance to win pretty much every week. One more here

777
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 1: in this segment, we're gonna get you the New England

778
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 1: Patriots and the Carolina Panthers. You heard Rank talking about

779
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,240
Speaker 1: Treyvon Henderson. I'm gonna go on the other side again

780
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,800
Speaker 1: and give you the Patriots defense as a starting option

781
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 1: for fantasy managers this week. If you are of the

782
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 1: streaming persuasion, can I interest you in a Carolina Panthers

783
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: offense that's averaging four point three yards per play, which

784
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: is the third worst in the NFL six giveaways in

785
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 1: their first three games. On the Patriots, they are giving

786
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: up some things through the air, but they do have

787
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 1: the number two ranked run defense, and fantasy defenses have

788
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: scored double digit points against Carolina into the first three weeks.

789
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 1: We're looking sideways at you. Atlanta Falcons, Aaron Rodgers and

790
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: the Steelers kickoff Week four in Dublin versus the Vikings

791
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 1: presented by Madden NFL twenty six. It all gets underway Sunday,

Speaker 1: and getting your question to doing our best to give

798
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,879
Speaker 1: you answers. As we wrap up here this Friday edition

799
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 1: of Fantasy Live. This one for you, Florio, I have

800
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams and Brian Thomas Junior. For my flex, which

801
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: one should I go for?

802
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 4: I don't love the matchup at all for Javonte this week.

803
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 4: He is the safe floor play, though I think I

804
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 4: go that route.

805
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 5: Unless you need a home run hitter, then it's Brian

806
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:50,439
Speaker 5: Thomas jet all.

807
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: Right, this one for you. Rank Caleb Williams or bo

808
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 1: Nix this week?

809
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 2: It's too close to my heart. I would tell most

810
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 2: normal people to go with Kayleb Williams. I really do.

811
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 2: I really love the way that Bears have approached this week,

812
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 2: with Kayleb Williams being selected as the Offensive Player of

813
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 2: the Week for the NFC. They've really just wanted to

814
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 2: focus on the Raiders, not dwell on the past.

815
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: I love that attitude, all right, So moving on, I

816
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 1: see I do like Bonnette Bear's moving on. We're also

817
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 1: moving on to the next question. Should I trade Bucky

818
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 1: Bucky Irving presumably for Rome. I'm I would say, I'm

819
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 1: just gonna selling a cop out. But if you need

820
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,399
Speaker 1: the wide receiver help, if you're good at running back,

821
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 1: then absolutely do that. You know, it's hard to sort

822
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 1: of tell in a vacuum, but I think Romo Dunesa

823
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: is primed for a huge season, So if you need

824
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: the help you can afford the running back, then I

825
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 1: absolutely would do that. One back around to you, Florio,

826
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 1: this one, Should I trade Alvin Kamara for oh Marion

827
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: Hampton in PPR?

828
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 4: Except that now before the other manager could even consider it,

829
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 4: I think a Marian Hampton is an RB one moving

830
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,360
Speaker 4: forward and Kamara is tied to one of the lower

831
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 4: offenses in the league.

832
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 5: So yeah, I'm doing this all day, all right.

833
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 1: One last one, This one a tight end question for you.

834
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: Rank Should I who should I start? Kelsey or Henry

835
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 1: in the tight end spot?

836
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 2: You know, if you're gonna base it on production and numbers,

837
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 2: it's it's Hunter Henry. If you have a ten year

838
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,400
Speaker 2: old daughter who loves Taylor Swift and you go Travis Kelsey,

839
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 2: all right.

840
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 1: I do think it's a decent week. Maybe not a

841
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: great week, but a decent one for Travis Kelcey. Time

842
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 1: now to peer into our crystal balls and get you

843
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 1: Monday's headlines today in case you don't have time to

844
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: watch football over the week, and we're gonna let you

845
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: know what happened right now, Florida, what is your headline

846
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:30,720
Speaker 1: for next.

847
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 4: Week, Omarion puts an ice box where Big Blues Heart

848
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 4: used to be. Look, Rak, I finally get how you

849
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 4: feel when I don't understand your references. Because Kendall asks

850
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 4: me if this was from the Little Giants.

851
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 5: I don't know if you even get this reference.

852
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,399
Speaker 4: But O'maron Hampton is going to absolutely eat this week

853
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 4: against the Giants.

854
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 2: Remind me of that episode of the Office where he's

855
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 2: like doing a thing. Jordan Love Conckers, all Green Bay

856
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 2: Packers are joyce now. Everybody can stop talking about his

857
00:38:56,200 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 2: interception against the Cleveland Browns, the Love Conckers, all everything

858
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 2: that's going on with the Dallas Cowboys and the Green

859
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 2: Bay Packers this week. A lot of it is surrounding

860
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 2: Micah Parsons, but the biggest story is going to be

861
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 2: Jordan Love going back out there and having some production. Obviously,

862
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 2: last week was a tough week for the Packers and

863
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 2: the Packers fans, even though I predicted it. No matter

864
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 2: what we're talking about now, is Love conquering this Cowboys defense.

865
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with cool Breeze blows through Miami. I

866
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: mean Breese Hall. I think is set up for a

867
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: huge week against a Miami defense that has really been struggling.

868
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,760
Speaker 1: I think you add in the threat of Justin Field's

869
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: being able to get out and run means that's something

870
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: else that those linebackers have to pay attention to. But

871
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: Breeze Hall maybe not the eye popping numbers we hoped for,

872
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 1: but I think this is a week that he puts

873
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: together some solid numbers. I like him as an RB

874
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: one this week on Monday Night football against the Miami Dolphins.

875
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: There you go. Those are Mondays headlines today. Just in

876
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: case you don't get a chance to hang out with

877
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 1: us this week, please come back and hang out with

878
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: us on Monday.

879
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:55,800
Speaker 2: I don't know what is it, Justin Fields for a touchdowns.

880
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 1: We like that a whole lot. Be sure to come

881
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,280
Speaker 1: back with us on Monday. We are recapping him everything

882
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: that happened from Sunday getting ready for Monday Night football

883
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: for Floria, for Rank A Marcus. It's all the week

884
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:28,239
Speaker 1: and everybody. We'll see it again on the m
