What's going on? Bunday? Ray? 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:09.240 What is up? My man? Giants Falcons? Last night? Yeah, 0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:10.840 it was a big It was a big day yesterday 0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:16.160 overall between going on that door cover, last second, crazy, 0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:18.640 a Fantasy matchup, all the way down on the wire too. 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:22.640 It was great. So I so remember going to last night, 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:24.520 I told you I don't know if it's on the air, 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:27.479 off the air um that I had. I was up 0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:33.360 five with se Kwan and Calvin Ridley versus Matt Ryan Okay, 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:37.400 so I literally had said I was down after Squan 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:40.000 caught a pass and lost seven yards on it. I 0:01:40.160 --> 0:01:44.440 was down point three at that point, so I kept saying, 0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:48.400 all I want is a Falcon's rushing touchdown. So it 0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:50.360 would just be dump off the c Kwon, dump off 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:53.120 the se Kwan, dumb off the Kwan, and that's exactly 0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:55.760 what I got. And then the next play after that 0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:58.760 was a fifty yard dump off the c Kuan and 0:01:58.800 --> 0:02:02.440 we never looked back. Okay, you could always depend on 0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:05.720 a ton of dump off passes to say Kwon Barkley 0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:09.320 that you know what, congrats buddy, What does that make 0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.560 your record? That my record will be? This week? Said 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:15.720 we're five and two and two. Yeah, I just had 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:18.120 a bunch of really bad teams. No, I only have 0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:19.920 one really event I just talked about that on the 0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:22.079 most I only have one really bad team. Actually have 0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:24.560 a pretty good year. Um Gs two were three and four, 0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:28.520 climbing back into it, slowly climbing before going the right way. 0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:30.519 We're we're in the playoffs right now, came out of 0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:32.239 the playoffs. We're right there. We're like tied for the 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.480 last playoffs. We're the we're in the mix. We're in 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:37.000 the mix, uh Cartins League. I'm I'm around three and 0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:39.720 four or four and three something like that. UM five 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:43.520 and two in my homely league one one where of that? 0:02:43.840 --> 0:02:47.240 And then UM flex, I think I'm the five and 0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:51.720 two and flex right, pretty sure? Yeah? I think I 0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:54.800 think I'm five inutes. What the heck you are? I 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:58.160 think I'm five and two in both flex and five 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:00.320 and two in flexes and the fish bowl. So I'm 0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:04.480 not having a bad here, oh Greggy, Yeah, stepping it up? Yeah, man, 0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:09.200 because you have Robert Woods everywhere. Well, what do you 0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:12.919 think about last night's game? Outside of obviously you are 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:15.720 you winning there? Look, you needed a lot of late 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:17.919 production from s Kwon Barkley for most of that game. 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:19.560 I think you were worried about what you're getting at 0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:23.239 it was. It was a little frustrating the Giants offense, 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:25.360 you know, at least for their skill position players and 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:28.639 for fantasy purposes. Bounced back. I mean Odell Beckham and 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:32.280 Sterling Shepherd both cleared a hundred and forty yards each. Obviously, 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:35.600 Beckham had that touchdown late on a on a great catch, 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:37.360 should have had the two point conversion as well. I 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:38.600 don't know if you want to get into the whole 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.320 two point conversion talk. We were just talking about it downstairs. 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:43.640 Everyone's freaking out. Why did they go for to Like 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:47.360 there are analytics that show that when you're down fourteen, 0:03:47.440 --> 0:03:50.240 you score a touchdown. Going for two is the smarter play. 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:51.720 I don't know if you want to get into that 0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:53.080 or not. So I don't want to get into it 0:03:53.080 --> 0:03:55.160 because I agree and I gotta I gotta fight my 0:03:55.200 --> 0:03:57.240 friends last night about this because they're say how stupid 0:03:57.320 --> 0:03:59.160 giants are for that, blah blah blah, and they weren't 0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:01.160 and in the Eagles of the that for weeks now 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.880 and it's Super Bowl winning Eagles, Like Doug Peterson is 0:04:03.880 --> 0:04:05.640 a smart head coach. So I sent an article that 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:08.400 that was written last year about why the brown should 0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:10.440 have done this Actually last year it's pointed out the 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:12.320 same if they've been doing it this year, like Hugh 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.080 Jackson has been trying to do this this year. So 0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:18.120 I've wrote I said out the article, um, speaking of 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:20.599 that those analytics and Hugh Jackson's on the cover, my 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:22.600 friends on Hugh Jackson will cover up. I'm not agreeing 0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:24.480 with anything like it literally says that he's an idiot. 0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:27.680 Just read the read the article. Uh so they're all 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:29.160 screaming at me how I can think, how I can 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:30.520 be so dumber? Just like I'm just telling you what 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:34.280 the analytics saying. Man, like this wire's football baseball now, 0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:37.359 like because data matters, like it doesn't matter what support 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:39.880 it is or what uh really what entathy it is. 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:42.279 In politics, it's the same way. We're all using data 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:44.680 and why wouldn't you use all the tools that you 0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:46.479 have and the data says that you should go for 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.719 two because basically, in Lehman's terms, I'll just do it 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:51.599 very quickly because I don't don't want to dive into it. 0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:55.480 But Lehman's terms, going for two from the two yard 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:58.440 line is a proposition. Technically it's only forty seven point 0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:01.520 eight percent, but essentially it's fifty fifty, which means you're 0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:03.800 going to make it one out of two times. So 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:06.840 if you go for two when you are down fourteen 0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:10.800 on the first um on the first time and you 0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:13.479 miss it, the odd state that you will make it 0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:15.560 the second time when you need it. So if your 0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:18.680 defense holds, you're down eight, you missed the first, you'll 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:21.559 make the second you'll tie the game, you go to overtime. Fine, 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.359 if you make the first one, all you need is 0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:26.680 an extra point and you win the game. The goal 0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:29.600 of the game is the goal of every game is 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:32.599 to win, as Herman Edwards once told us, so by 0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:34.760 doing that, it puts you in a better position to 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:38.800 win over time is essentially a fifty fifty toss as well. 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:42.039 You want to avoid that. I believe by going for two, 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:43.960 if you make it, you have like a sixty chance 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:46.279 of winning or something along those lines. Like it was 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.719 a no brainer, not no brainer decision, but when you 0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:52.960 look at the analytics, it makes plenty of sense. Going 0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:55.400 for two wasn't the problem of Pat Shermer last night. 0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:58.000 The problem with Pat Shermer was two fold. Number one, 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:00.039 two quarterbacks sneaks the game on the line with the 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:01.880 there's no game on a lot. But I don't think 0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:04.120 that's Pat Sremer's fault, though I think it's I think 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:06.479 it's I think that's ELI, because they were even talking 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:10.840 about that last night during the game, Like, I think 0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:14.200 they got that wrong. Well, Booger and test Tour, I 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:15.480 think they all got that right. I don't know. I 0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:17.880 don't think Eli's calling himself a quarterback sneak. He's never 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:19.640 done that in his life. This is the first This 0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:21.080 year is the first time he's been sneaking. I mean, 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:22.560 once you get that first down, the first thing you 0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:25.080 should do is just spike it. Yes, spike it, just 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:27.960 you know, stop the clock. Um, So I think that. 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:30.880 So that's my number one. Number two. Because people are 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:33.320 focused on the quarterback sneak, and people are focused on 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:35.600 the two point inversion, they're missing the real point. And 0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:37.400 I told Gabe this the first thing this morning. I 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:40.360 didn't think you wanted to hear it from you, honestly, um, 0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:42.360 because I was like, people are gonna be talking about 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:43.440 the right thing today. He's like, all right, what are 0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:46.480 they talking about. I'm like, I shouldn't. I shouldn't do this. 0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:48.560 I shouldn't tell people what to what to say. You know, 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:51.920 these are my opinions. I don't care if one conversion 0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:53.200 because it was right. I don't care for the quarterack 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:55.039 sneak because the game was over anyway, because you you know, 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.040 hit the fifty six yard field goal. The problem was 0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:00.000 the atlant of Facons. As we stated yesterday in the show, 0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:02.560 one of the worst defenses in the NFL, their secondary, 0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:05.920 their linebacking corps. It's horrible. They're averaging like thirty two 0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:08.800 points a game allowed or something along those lines. The 0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:12.280 first quarter they have more points than anybody. Gisque none. 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:15.080 Actually in the first quarter, the Giants against this worst 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:19.280 defense in the NFL, had six points until garbage time. 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:23.160 Six two field goals. Eli had three completions. Have the 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:25.720 Odell touchdown. Three completions in the red zone all night. 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:28.920 He was three in the red zone. They got there 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.280 and they couldn't convert. It's pathetic when you go an 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:34.840 offense and Odell Beckham and say Koon Barkley to score 0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:38.000 six points before garbage time is unacceptable. And this is 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:40.240 the Giants weekend and week out. And yeah it's Eli 0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:43.120 because he's terrible, but it's also on Pat Srmer horrible, 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.680 horrible job. Yeah, they had six points going into the 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:49.200 fourth quarter yesterday, and you can't really blame the offense 0:07:49.240 --> 0:07:50.800 in terms of moving the ball. They were able to 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:53.000 move the ball, couldn't score once they got in the 0:07:53.000 --> 0:07:55.120 red zone. That's just more of the same look. Sterling 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:57.320 Shepherd a hundred and sixty seven yards, Odell Beckham a 0:07:57.360 --> 0:07:59.240 hundred and forty yards, Like these guys did their job. 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:02.400 Take one Arkley, Obviously, we were expecting a better performance 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:05.560 out of him, but look forty rushing, another fifty one 0:08:05.640 --> 0:08:07.960 receiving so close to a hundred yards from scrimmage, and 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:11.000 a touchdown, So take one. Yes, you want him to 0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:13.200 be better overall, you want the Giants whole offense to 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:15.000 be better once they're in the red zone. I think 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:18.679 that was obvious there. Um. Kevin Coleman on the other side, 0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:21.320 did his part, scored a long touchdown. I think we 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:23.360 were expecting more from Matt Ryan overall as well. Three 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:27.840 seventy nine yards. Yes, that's great, but only one touchdown. Look, 0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:30.239 another game in the NFL, another week goes by, another 0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:33.720 week without a touchdown. He was great, And if you 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:36.400 watched the post game afterwards, when ESPN is talking to him, 0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:39.199 he's completely selfless, like he doesn't care if he scores touchdowns. 0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:45.120 He said that time and time again, like I don't know, man, Like, 0:08:45.160 --> 0:08:46.840 what are you gonna say he won? If they would 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:50.200 have lost that we've been a different conversation obviously, But 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:52.199 I mean they've been losing more than they've been winning 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:55.080 this year, So it's I'm saying this game in this interview. 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:56.880 It's not like he's freaking out and coming out and 0:08:56.920 --> 0:08:59.959 saying like, oh uh, you know, we're not winning because 0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:02.360 I'm not scoring touchdowns, or at least from what I've seen, 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:05.160 I haven't seen him actually complained about that. But look 0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:08.120 still great for PPR nine for one oh four. I 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:11.400 think Edo Smith was a big leftown yesterday. Seven carries 0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:14.360 for sixteen yards. He was involved in the past game, 0:09:14.400 --> 0:09:16.920 only had two receptions for twenty nine yards. I think 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.680 we were expecting more of him overall. Um, you know, 0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:22.320 he was a Netflix discussion coming in. But Tevin Coleman 0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:24.960 did his job. Not really much else to go around here, 0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:26.480 Like everyone who was supposed to do what they were 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:29.520 supposed to do pretty much did that. Calvin Redley returned, 0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:33.280 Was that all right? Five three? Great? One? Yeah, you 0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:35.040 know it's always wrong with the turf. I thought last night, 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:38.920 se Kwan trip the bunch. Calval Ridley tripped the bunch. Yeah, 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.000 a couple of times, So I thought that was okay. 0:09:41.040 --> 0:09:43.080 I thought, listen, both teams are able to move the ball, 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:46.080 no problem, Um, do their do their things. Of course, 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:48.440 Atlanta was was obviously able to see that they were 0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:49.800 going to dump it off a sea kwan a lot 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:53.040 and they lunched it through the line. Um elik Like 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.719 I said, it was terrible, um and that was the 0:09:55.760 --> 0:10:00.400 second biggest story. Indeed, it well it's great. Yeah. So 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:04.960 I was out last night and uh he who must 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:09.160 be named kid next to me and he's like, hey, 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:11.040 are you watching Raw? And I was like, I go 0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:14.040 giants Han, but oh well, no, do you see the 0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:16.880 Roman Reigns interview? I go, no, I passed forward through 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:20.800 over Roman Reins in your views. Uh so no, even 0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:22.720 if I was watching RAW, I would not have seen this. 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.679 And he tells me Roman Rains is leukemia and he's 0:10:26.720 --> 0:10:29.480 gonna like this chill that I just got again. I'm 0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:32.920 like what, And it's true. Man. What's said is that 0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:36.200 it's extremely sad. And obviously, you know, a guy like 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:39.200 in the prime of his career, not just like wrestling career, 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.480 but overall like his career, like he's getting it done 0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:45.320 right now. Obviously a huge name in Roman Reigns. Apparently 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:47.679 he's been battling this for eleven years. So I assumed 0:10:48.280 --> 0:10:50.439 it's gone into like remission and then it's come back, 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:52.840 and now it seems like it has come back and 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:55.080 he had to relinquish his championship. I mean that's obviously 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.439 on the back burner. Who cares about that? Obviously, all 0:10:57.480 --> 0:10:59.920 we're hoping for is for him to you know, get 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:05.120 better and you know maybe one day because return. But 0:11:05.160 --> 0:11:07.439 obviously that's that's on the back burner now. But yeah, 0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:10.600 it really, it really is just uh it's it's crazy. Yeah, yeah, 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:13.120 you know, it's you wouldn't even expect either, right, like 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.000 for a guy like in that good of shape, like 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:16.440 you know, it's just like the last thing that you 0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:19.880 would expect, right, Yeah, it was crazy, you know he 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:23.040 he I was telling Judy actually last night that he 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:25.679 missed HOW shows and like Boston over the weekend. Everyone's like, 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:27.079 what the hell is this? I got like a Bleacher 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:29.920 Report update yesterday it was like Roman Reign's injured question mark. Yeah, 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.000 because he missed, he missed. No one knows what's going on. 0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:33.880 It was the weekend in Boston and he doesn't really 0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:35.920 miss HOW shows. It was like, what's going on? Like 0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:38.920 why wasn't he around? And right, he's that raw, so 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:40.280 I guess there's no big deal and he just took 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:42.760 the weekend offers from family stuff and he comes out 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:44.800 like in street clothes. It was like, oh, this is nice. 0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:47.959 He's like not wearing this stupid shield gear. And then 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:49.840 he makes his announcement. He's like, hey, my name is Joe. 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:52.000 I was like, oh boy, I mean I already knew 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:54.920 the answer because Jake told me. But like it was sad. 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:57.240 It was really sad. Obviously got booed out of the 0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.400 arena when he walks in and then cheered out of 0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:01.760 the arena right for so um as he walked out 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:05.880 and actually come back from commercial and the announcers I 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:09.080 was trying. They had to obviously know, I think, but 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:10.720 it sure seemed like they didn't really know what was 0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:13.480 going on. Um, just be how their emotions, how they 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:16.320 were like building up romans announcement like in storyline. They 0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:19.520 came out and they were in tears after that. Uh, 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:22.440 Corey Grahams were ever a young and Um and Michael 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:25.600 Cole and it was weird. It was It was just weird, 0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:28.760 really really weird. A night Aura And in the background 0:12:28.760 --> 0:12:31.080 of all that, the crowd chance and cancer sucks because 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:36.160 it does. Evan suck. Um tough night Man, Tough Night 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:40.400 It sucked. Yeah, yeah, it definitely does. But you know, 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:43.520 shouts rom regns uh get better and hopefully hopefully we'll 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:45.120 see you again in the future. Not to not to 0:12:45.200 --> 0:12:50.200 kind of build on um, but it has to be 0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:52.720 really serious. Like it's obviously serious because leukemia, but like 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:54.800 it has to be really serious that as he was 0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:56.960 the champion, that he couldn't wrestle like one more matches 0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:59.080 and to lose the belt, like you knew he he 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:01.240 had this big thing, uh in Saudi Arabia, which is 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:03.040 a whole other problem, but like they have they have 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:05.720 a big event in sort of Arabian two weeks and 0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:09.520 this has to me that serious that he couldn't either 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:11.600 you go to that or b wrestle because he's a 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:13.920 champion whatever he even if he hasn't you watch just 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:19.319 lay down and he get pinned. Whatever. This is immediate serious, 0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:25.880 you know, crazy yeah, this because hopefully he could get 0:13:25.920 --> 0:13:30.240 he'd get back on track. Man. That's uh, that's that's 0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:37.280 pretty much it, right, yeah, m all right. So from 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:40.520 there we will move on to the third biggest story 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:43.360 a Monday Night, which is the Knicks losing again. I'm 0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:46.520 just kidding. You know, in the end your recap you 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:48.720 said that that was not a close game. It was 0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:52.040 actually very close until like the last two minutes again, 0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:55.319 was tied with like three minutes left. Yeah, but like that, 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:58.480 it wasn't yeah, but it was. It was closer than 0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:00.360 you led to believe, Like you know, you know, it's 0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:03.600 just completely destroyed the Knicks last night. He didn't really. 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:05.840 I was watching that for when I saw the game 0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:07.840 was tied going the fourth quarter, because at halftime they 0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:10.320 were down by like twenty, like, all right, well, wow 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:11.920 they came. They battle all the way back. They tied 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:13.760 the game going into the fourth court. Let's see what 0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:16.560 they have to offer. And then it was just the Knicks. 0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:19.680 You know. Chris Middleton was great. Chris Midleton is always great. 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:21.880 He was, he was awesome. Good job I haven't updated, 0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:25.200 Oh man, I meant to pick up somebody off Fantasy 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:28.640 Basketball waiver wire and I forgot today. Well but in 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:31.040 all seriousness, the other big story that we wanted to 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.480 get to you was a Mari Cooper being traded yesterday 0:14:33.480 --> 0:14:35.280 for a first round draft pick. That have an after 0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:37.720 our show yesterday, what were your thoughts? And then what 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:40.960 are your thoughts now? Frank? So everyone's bashing the Dallas 0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:43.400 Cowboys for giving up a first round pick for Marie 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:46.760 Coop while the Patriots fleeced the Cleveland Browns and got 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:49.280 Josh Gordon for a fifth round pick. And then, you know, 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:51.480 I just saw a few people talking about this on Twitter. 0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:54.280 Imagine the backlash you know, people would have had on 0:14:54.280 --> 0:14:56.080 the Dallas Cowboys if they were actually the ones to 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:59.120 trade for Josh Gordon. Like everyone praises this move because 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:00.600 it was the Patriots who it and they're like, oh, 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.840 the Patriots gotta steal. But if at the time the 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:05.360 Cowboys were the team to trade for Josh Gordon, I'm 0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:08.400 sure they would have got backlash regardless. So, yes, the 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:10.240 first round pick is a lot to give up for 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:12.800 a Marii Cooper And based on everything else that we've heard, 0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.520 it seems like the other teams there was no other 0:15:15.520 --> 0:15:17.280 team willing to give up a first round pick. We 0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:19.720 were just talking to Corey about this downstairs. Uh, they're 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:21.880 probably gonna use that first round pick this path this 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:25.840 upcoming season to draft a wide receiver anyway. And you 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:28.560 know it is different because that wide receiver would be 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:31.800 playing under a rookie contract, obviously would likely be younger 0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:33.760 than a Mary Cooper, but people don't realize the Mary 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:35.800 Cooper is still only twenty four years old. He's younger 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:38.120 than Cooper Cup. I've seen some people, you know, point 0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:41.040 that out on Twitter. They desperately needed to make this move. 0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:43.800 They have Cole Beasley, who's like the underneath slot receiver, 0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:46.160 but by no means should he be the top receiver 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:48.280 on this team. They now get that guy on the 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.320 outside who can stretch the field, who can make the 0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:53.280 place or hope or at least we hope he can 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:55.720 because you know, he's been given opportunities in the past 0:15:56.160 --> 0:15:57.920 and actually had a Stat of the day for the 0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:01.320 first time in a while. Great. It's kind It comes 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:03.320 via Scott Barrett, So it's not really my stat of 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.040 the day. It' Scott Barretts Stat of the Day, which 0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.720 I stole what I'm giving credit four. So so it's okay. 0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:10.640 Among all sixty one wide receivers to see at least 0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:15.120 one and fifty catchable targets in Marie, Cooper ranks dead 0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:18.720 last and drop rate thirteen point one percent. To put 0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:22.160 that in perspective, Doug Baldwin dropped one pass every thirty 0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:26.000 eight catchable targets. Cooper has dropped one every seven point 0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:29.120 six catchable targets, so that's you know, that's a that's 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:33.760 a thirty catch difference between Doug Baldwin and Mari Cooper 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:35.640 in terms of how often they dropped the ball. So 0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:38.040 he look, I guarantee if you asked the Marie Cooper, 0:16:38.080 --> 0:16:40.160 he would tell you I need to be better in 0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:44.400 terms of his fantasy value here. I think the targets 0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:46.920 go up. Will probably see more consistent targets. But remember 0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:49.320 the Cowboys don't pass the ball all that much in 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:51.840 terms of play volume, Like they're going to run the 0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:55.200 football a lot still with Ezekiel Elliott there, you know, 0:16:55.440 --> 0:16:58.080 they throw the football the fifth fewest times in the 0:16:58.200 --> 0:17:00.720 NFL to this point the season. So you can see 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:03.400 more consistent targets out of Mamori Cooper. I just I 0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:06.080 don't think this moosts value all that much. He's in 0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:08.760 the wide receiver three discussion from the value changes all 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:10.679 that much. Either. I'll break it down my thoughts and 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:12.440 hell your place them we go to the waiver wire. 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:15.760 We'll do that when we come back to waiver wire Tuesday. 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:17.880 Who to add, who to drop?

Okay, Frank Mary Cooper heads to 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:59.479 Dallas and me personally, I don't like the trade for Dallas. 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:01.159 I'm on the side of they give up too much. 0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:03.479 It's the first round pick, and I understand they're more 0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:07.920 desperate necess than the Patriots were. And Josh Gordon certainly 0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:10.600 has more issues than a Maori Cooper does off the field. 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:15.640 And despite Cooper dealing with the concussion, still a young 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:18.119 guy and he can improve, no doubt. But give me 0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:20.560 up that first round pick. That bothers me because I 0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:23.280 gets you gotta givote something to get something. But next 0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:25.679 year is his option year and he's gonna want to 0:19:25.680 --> 0:19:28.040
