It's just awful, awful combo. So 7 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: hopefully he is getting better and hopefully back with this 8 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 1: real real soon. Um, we have sometuff to talk about. 9 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna have one of our favorite people in the 10 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: fantasy industry, Jake Seeley, who you can read at The Athletic. 11 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: He'll come on and talk to us about a wide 12 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: variety of topics. We may also get into some weird 13 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl stuff too, because look, man, it's January, man, 14 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: why not? Why not? So we'll talk about that. We'll 15 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: get his thoughts on maybe who should be the number 16 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: one overall pick next year, some quarterback stuff, all of that, 17 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: Jacob All is fun to talk to you, so look 18 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: forward to that. But before we do any of that, 19 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: we'll go behind the glass and talk to our faithful producer, 20 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: Senior Edward L. Murphy Esquire Murph what's up. I'm just 21 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: very happy about my coaching Steff having bred Bielama and 22 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: potentially Freddy Kitchens, like not even guys you trust at 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: the coordinator positions, but just guys you probably want to 24 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: go hang out with and just eat and drink with 25 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: them because you know they're gonna have a good time. 26 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: So I'm I'm most thrilled about that. Who was it 27 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:25,960 Speaker 1: was it? It might even been uh. I also want 28 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: on Twitter say that basically if you either coach for 29 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: the Patriots or in the SEC, I tweeted that ye 30 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: want to talk to you. Everyone on their staff has 31 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: like ties somehow to the SEC or has coached in 32 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: like in New England. It's it's it's remarkable. But um, 33 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: you know, I'm a fan of the Steff. I've never 34 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: been this involved in like the the coordinator slash position 35 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: coach game before, and they feel like this offseason is 36 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: a lot of big name X head coaches that are 37 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: taking these like smaller roles like Kitchens man being like 38 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: a tight end coach like it's it's it's crazy the 39 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: thing to be the head coach of the Cleveland Browns 40 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: that has of high hopes to go back to a 41 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: position job. But I mean that's you know, that's the 42 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: business the NFL. It's it's brutal, but um, you know 43 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: they could hopefully for the benefit of my team, it 44 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: works out. This sort of feels like when actors become 45 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, they start in movies or whatever, and then 46 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: like that movie career kind of drives up and then 47 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 1: they end up like on a show on like Netflix 48 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: for a little bit, trying to rebuild that resume. It's 49 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 1: like the McConaughey, like the Macconist. He yeah, he was, 50 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: he was a name like that, a bunch of movies 51 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,399 Speaker 1: that were like kind of round comedy, and then he's 52 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: trying to find a show that works. Hopped on True Detective. 53 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: Like you know, streaming services were a big deal and 54 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: people love subscription the HBO stuff, but um, that was 55 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: like kind of at the beginning of when people like 56 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: got rid of the cable shows and became full fledged 57 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: into uh, the stuff you have to pay for. And 58 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: they worked out so hopefully. Uh yeah, Kitchens biling, all 59 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: these guys, Garrett all having mcconnaissance. Yeah, So I guess 60 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: the Giants plan really is just to kind of have 61 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: like some sort of brain trust around Joe Judge and 62 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: they just kind of like, i'll, i'll. I had a 63 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 1: good conversation with Shaun O'Hara Harry, who obviously we talked 64 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: giants here and there whenever I see him, and and 65 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: he said some really good things and basically that the 66 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: fact that the other coaches had a call plays and 67 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: then trying to be CEO of the of the football 68 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: team wasn't a great mix. But the fact that judges like, no, no, 69 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: you take care of this play call, and you take 70 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: care of this, you take care of that, and he's 71 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: having people do specific jobs and he could just control 72 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: the organization. I think he said, as you know, it's 73 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: gonna pay dividends because you can focus on one thing. 74 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: And I think more teams will start to adopt that 75 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: kind of mentality. It's definitely a different structure for today's 76 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: NFL because a lot of coaching hires that we see 77 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: these head coaching highs, these guys are also calling plays 78 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: and like last year with Freddi Kitchens, it was clearly 79 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: a disaster that he needed to delegate some of those 80 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: duties and uh in some of the game playing duties 81 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: and play calling duties. I'm very interested to see what 82 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: the Giants look like next year. Yes, And I think 83 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: in football in general, like I know, HERM Edwards at 84 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: a s U kind of got the title as like 85 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: football ceo and people were joking about that. But in 86 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: a lot of ways, I think that kind of makes sense. 87 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: And I think I, like I said, we will see 88 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: teams start to impul out that go and forward where 89 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: you could have these roles being delegated to certain coaches, 90 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: but the the head coach is just the overseer. And 91 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: I think that makes the most sense. Yeah, I agree, 92 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: I think we we we trended so far in like 93 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, guys playing calling plays and taking control of 94 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: the offense or the defense. Um, you know, I think 95 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 1: we sort of lost the fact that our teams lost 96 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 1: the fact that you know, you you do have to 97 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: control a whole team. Yeah, you can't just be the 98 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: coach of the offense. Like as a head coach, you 99 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: you have to oversee everything. So very curious to see 100 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 1: how this works out. But watching Joe Judge put together 101 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: his staff has been certainly very interesting. All right, Hey, 102 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: let's do some news. Well we talked about it on 103 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: Monday because it was rumored and now it is official. 104 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: Jay Gruden has been named the offensive coordinator of the 105 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars. He, of course, started last season as the 106 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: head coach in Washington, was let go midway through the season. 107 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: Now he heads down south and he graham Inherits an 108 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: offense that has a young, promising quarterback. They've got a 109 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: good running back and Leonard for Nette. They've got some 110 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: young talented wide receivers. Say what you will about Jake 111 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: Gruden as the head coach, at least as an offensive mind. 112 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: He's a very creative guy, and now he's in a 113 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: situation where he can sort of tinker and maybe do 114 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: something fun. Oh yeah, we talked about this on Monday, 115 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 1: and I was I was hoping that the Jacks would 116 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: make this move because you know, they've been just desperate 117 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: for a really good offensive coordinator there for years, and 118 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: I think James pretty clearly their best higher they've made 119 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: in in recent memory. I like Jake Gruden quite a 120 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: bit as a as an offensive mind. Um, I definitely 121 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: think he got way too much of the blame in 122 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: Washington for a lot of different reasons. Um, but we'll 123 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: leave that. As a man. I mean, the Jags are 124 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: pretty loaded. I mean, Gardner Minshew is a an exciting 125 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: young quarterback who had some some some success and could 126 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: uh kind of have even more success. Allah kirk Cousins. 127 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: Jake Gruden scheme kirk Cousins into success when he was 128 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: with Washington. I could see a similar situation arise in there. 129 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: And you know, Gruden doesn't have the pressure of you know, 130 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 1: being a head coach and having to delegate all these 131 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: tasks like we just talked about. He can simply focus 132 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: on offense. And to me, that's that's a promising idea. Yeah, no, absolutely. Um. So, look, 133 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: we saw some good things last year out of Jacksonville. 134 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: I mean the point that at one point in the 135 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: season Gardner Minshew was a hot waiver wire pick. DJ Chark, 136 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: who was either a late round draft pick or a 137 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: waiver wire pick, was very productive for a good part 138 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: of the season. Leonard Fournette had arguably his best year 139 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: as a professional and was much bigger part of the 140 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: passing game than I think any of us anticipated. So 141 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: now they've got a guy who can release, what I think, 142 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 1: dig into this offense. Um, and it's gonna be interesting. 143 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: I would imagine we're gonna see some Jaguars kind of 144 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: shoot up draft boards in the summer. UM. The Lions 145 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: general manager says that they are quote comfortable with Matthew 146 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: Stafford coming back next season. I mean, he dealt with 147 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: an injury that essentially kept him out for the last 148 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: half of the year. He finally went on I are 149 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: kind of late in the season we heard reports of 150 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: what a spinal injury even with with Matt Stafford, but 151 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: before that he had been playing really, really well. Um, 152 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: he was a top ten fantasy quarterback, was averaging about 153 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: twenty fantasy points per game. The team itself were struggling 154 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: in other areas, but it's hard to put anyto that 155 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: on the way Stafford was playing. Uh, the Lions right 156 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: now do have the number three pick. I don't expect 157 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: that they're going to hard at any quarterback in the 158 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: top three picks. UM. I would think that Matt Stafford 159 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: is sort of the guy at least for the next 160 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: few years. They're in Detroit right now. I he has 161 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: to be. I mean, he played just exceptionable football before 162 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: he went down with that injury, averaging a career high 163 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: in yardsburg right around a career high in yards for 164 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: Game three and twelve, had six games with multiple passing 165 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: touchdowns in eight outings. Uh. And obviously, I mean the 166 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: Lions receiver corps. It's just it's just so nice. Their 167 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: entire receiver corps so good, between Gala Day and Jones 168 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,119 Speaker 1: and Hockinson coming into his second year. Uh, Detroit has 169 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: to they have to trade down, right, if somebody's if 170 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: somebody's coming up to pay a king's ransom for tua 171 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: Um in Washington is going to take the best non 172 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow prospect and number who overall, the Lions are 173 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: in such a great spot in terms of their leverage 174 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: to get a pretty big hall for that pick. Yeah. 175 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: I'm very curious because I know in his preliminary UH 176 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: draft mocks, I think Daniel Jeremiah has the Dolphins getting 177 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: to a Now. I don't know if that means, you know, 178 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: he expects the Dolphins will sit and hope that to 179 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: a false to them at five or if they make 180 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: a move and try to get up to it. Yeah. 181 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: I read DJ's MAK yesterday. He had four quarterbacks in 182 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 1: the top fifteen. I think between Herbert and Um and 183 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow and Herbert. But yeah, it's a quarterback Hungary League, 184 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: and I think that the Lions and the Giants too. 185 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: We'll see if Gettleman trades back for the first time ever, 186 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: but both Lions and the Giants are in a great 187 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: position to to leverage their their picks and trade back possibly. Um. 188 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: The Bengals, some of their folks in the front office 189 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: are saying that Andy Dalton is quote certainly not done. 190 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: Um maybe you're that Airs fans, maybe, but we gotta 191 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: leaves He's done in Cincinnati though, right absolutely. Uh. One 192 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: of the best tweets during the National Championship Game I 193 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: saw was that it was the gift of uh toy 194 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: story where he's erasing Andy's name off the shoe shoe. 195 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: I can't remember who tweeted it out, but I think 196 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: I retweeted it was hilarious. Yeah, the Bangles are done. 197 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: They're they're done with Andy Dalton. I mean they were 198 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: done with him in the middle of the season. They 199 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: were so done with them they went to Ryan Freakin 200 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: Finley who couldn't play. Um. Yeah, I'm interested to see 201 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: where Dalton goes because I don't know. I think if you, 202 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: if you got the right pieces around him, he could 203 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: be somebody that you could potentially win with if you 204 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: have a really good defense, kind of like Derek Carr, 205 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: Like you could sell yourself on like, you know, somebody 206 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: like Andy Dalton or Derek Carr being a potentially, uh 207 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 1: playoff quarterback. But at the same time, it's just he's 208 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't offer anything, any excitement outside of the pocket. 209 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: And it's just I don't know, I don't know where 210 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: Dalton's career is gonna go. Yeah, know, it's funny. I 211 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: we were talking a few weeks ago. We were joking 212 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: about comparing quarterbacks to food items, um, and I remember 213 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: having a conversation similar to that a couple of years ago. 214 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: And I think somebody compared Alex Smith, and I think 215 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: this applies to Andy Dalt. They compared him to like 216 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: tofu in the sense that like, if you put him 217 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: with something really tasty, like he's a lot better if 218 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: you put him with something that's not so tasty. It's 219 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: kind of like what am I doing? And I feel 220 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: like that's sort of Andy Dalton when you put the 221 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: right ingredients around him, that that he really is something like, man, 222 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,599 Speaker 1: that's really great. If you don't, he's not going to 223 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: be the one that elevates the meal all by himself. 224 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 1: It's a very it's a very good. Uh. I don't 225 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: know everybody wants to be called tofu. I'm trying to 226 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: think of what what what would go well? Like what 227 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: goes well with tofu? I've had a good Ramen dish 228 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: with top Yeah, you know, stuff like that. Um, you 229 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: know if if you like me so soup, you know 230 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff is cool. Um yeah, but like 231 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: tofu just on its own is kind of it's yeah, 232 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: don't really tastes like it's like jelloy and yeah, it's 233 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 1: not great. It's not great. Um. Sevin Coleman, we saw 234 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: him leave the NFC Championship game with what has been 235 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: called a dislocated shoulder, but there is hope that he 236 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: could play in the Super Bowl. Of course, he's got 237 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks to try and get himself healthy 238 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: and ready to go. Uh. If we are playing DFS 239 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: on Super Bowl Sunday, which I know a lot of 240 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: people will be, do you take it if he's playing, 241 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: would you maybe throw him in the line up? We 242 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: saw two weeks ago against the Vikings it was Coleman 243 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: and not he mostart that had the big day then 244 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: obviously against the Packers, it was the right he Mostard show. 245 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: I feel like his usage is kind of inconsistent, but 246 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: when he's playing well, I mean we have seen him 247 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: really pop sometimes. Yeah, Coleman's had some just monster games 248 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: this year. But because of the shoulder and because Mostard 249 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 1: is playing so well, it would be pretty hard for 250 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: me to click Coleman into a lineup. And and you know, 251 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: most Are just has such a high ceiling in this 252 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: game because the Chiefs run defense is just so besmally 253 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,559 Speaker 1: bad and and it just seems most of it's the 254 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: perfect type of running back to expose them because he's 255 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: so quick at the second level. Um, yeah, it's gonna 256 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: be one to watch, definitely, And if nothing else, certainly 257 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: for the Chiefs, that's something that they've got to pay 258 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 1: attention to. If Kevin Coleman is there, that's just another 259 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: wrinkle for Kyle Shanahan to use. Uh last bit of news, 260 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: And I think this was very interesting one for just 261 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: a football fan and a fun standpoint. And two it 262 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: could potentially have some fantasy implications to it. This year 263 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: at the Pro Bowl, the league is going to test 264 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: some alternatives to the on side kick um. So here's 265 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: the idea, and I'll just read it from Kevin Patrick's 266 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: story at around the NFL UH. After a successful fueld 267 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: goal or extra point try attempt, the scoring team will 268 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: have options without a kickoff. The scoring team call them 269 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: Team A will have the following options. One Team A 270 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: may elect to give Team BE the ball at team 271 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: b's twenty five yard line, beginning a new series of 272 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: downs with first intense, so basically what would be a 273 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: touchback essentially UH to the second option, and this is 274 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: where it gets interesting. Team A may elect to take 275 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: the ball at its own twenty five yard line for 276 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,199 Speaker 1: a fourth and fifteen play. If Team MAY is successful 277 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: in making a first down, Team A will maintain possession 278 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: and a new series of downs will continue as normal. 279 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: If teammate is unsuccessful in making a first down, the 280 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 1: result would be a turnover on downs and Team B 281 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,959 Speaker 1: will take possession at the dead ball spot. That seems 282 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: kind of interesting. Yeah, I sort of like that idea. Yeah, 283 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 1: I mean, unless you're a young way coup kicks are 284 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: impossible to ride, impossible to get in the NFL. I 285 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: love this. I'm all in favor of this. Fourth and 286 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: fifteen Uh. I mean to me, it's a fantastic down 287 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: and distance. You're you're basically forcing the defense to play 288 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: a certain coverage and you've got to find a way 289 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 1: to beat it. It's I really like it. I really 290 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: like this. It could be a lot of fun. It 291 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: could be a lot of fun, I think, especially because 292 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: I know the big complaint this past year, the last 293 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: couple of years has been that if a team is 294 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: down by multiple scores and they score ea touch down, 295 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: it has taken a lot of the drama out of 296 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: it because it's nearly impossible to get an on side kick. Yeah, 297 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: I look, I'm all in favor of the NFL. Pretty 298 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: much anything would be better than the current on side 299 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: kick rules because, like you mentioned, they're they're redundant. I mean, 300 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: it's just like, why are we even doing this? The 301 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: opposing team is most likely going to get it? Um. 302 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: On the same note, did you see the XFL's proposed 303 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: two point in three point score? The one one point 304 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: two point in three point So yeah, you get basically 305 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: you kicked to feel goal from the one yard line. 306 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: That's an extra point. You get a typical two point 307 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: try from the two yard line, but then there's a 308 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: three point try from the ten, Yes, which to me 309 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: that that extra eight yards and distance doesn't really make 310 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: up the difference for one extra point? Well is it? 311 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: But see, I don't think it's a kick. I think 312 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: you actually not a play. It's not a kick. You're 313 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: gonna play play. Um yeah, I don't know. So, yeah, 314 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: you're getting eat But from from the five to the ten? 315 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: Is is what an extra point? Um? I don't know. 316 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: I think it's I mean it's it's it's interesting in 317 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: the sense that at least they're trying something new right there, 318 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: trying to and I think especially suddenly, now what at 319 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: this point that makes nine points a one possession game, 320 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: whereas in the NFL, a nine point game is still 321 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: a two possession game. Even if you get a touchdown 322 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: in two point inversion, you still need to get the 323 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: ball back. This that's sort of interested, you know, open 324 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: things up. If you get a nine point lead or 325 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: nine point deficit, you really are only one possession from 326 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: tying things up, right. Yeah, So the extra five yards, 327 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: it's basically the extra five yards worth a point. It's fun. 328 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: It's fun. Yeah, it's a lot of fun. It's I 329 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be interesting. I'm curious, you know, I don't. 330 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, I don't know if I'm gonna 331 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: tune into the XFL each and every week, but I 332 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: definitely will take a peek in and see what they're doing. 333 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. So if nothing else, I 334 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: I still will love to pruse their rosters and be like, hey, 335 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: I remember this guy, Remember that guy. It's just fun 336 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: to see the you know, the a F last year 337 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: they they got rid of the one point play. You 338 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: can't go for two. Now the XFL saying no, we 339 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: want to have three different I mean, look, man, it's 340 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: the old the old joke. I think it was Beer 341 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: against Ohio State where they were like blowing them out 342 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: and somebody asked Lee or late in the game, why 343 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: did you go for two up with a big leading. 344 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: He's like, because the rules wouldn't let me go for three. Well, 345 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: now now you have that option, the rules will let 346 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: you go for three. So there you go. Uh, it's 347 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: something to be watched. We'll see what happens at the 348 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl though with this onside kick alternative, and whether 349 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: or not it makes it to the regular season next year. 350 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: So there you go. That is pretty much everything you 351 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: need to know. Joining us now is our good friend, 352 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: friend of the program, genial fellow, all around good guy, 353 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: and one of the most accurate fantasy analysts you will 354 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: find on Twitter, on this planet, maybe anywhere. It's our 355 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: good friend Jake Seeley, Jake Man. What's going on? Not 356 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: too much? Yes, if there was a lot of truths 357 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: in there except for the probably the good guy for it. 358 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: I don't know that. I mean, you are one of 359 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: Canada's finest right yes, year, Yeah, I mean so so obviously, 360 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: you know, for those of you who don't know, and 361 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: that would probably most of you. For some reason, I 362 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: don't know why I thought Jake was from Canada, and 363 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: when we were hanging out in Indianapolis last year, I 364 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: think I made a reference to Canada, at which point 365 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 1: Jake looked at me sideways and said, no, man, I'm 366 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: from Virginia. I don't under I don't know where I 367 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: came up with that, but uh, you know, it's a 368 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: good it's a good story to tell now, so it 369 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: certainly is. Again those but those people are really nice. 370 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: So I don't know how you looping in with him. 371 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: I mean maybe that's why. I mean, you are really yeah, yeah, 372 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 1: you're generally happy. Go lucky fellow. So you know there 373 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: it is, UM all right out of the fantasy football 374 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: stuff because that's you know, that's what we do here. 375 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: UM at this moment as we speak here in mid 376 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: to late January, who is your number one overall pick? Yeah, 377 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,640 Speaker 1: I'm going right back Chris McCaffrey. It's kind of not 378 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: much of a question in my mind after what happened 379 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: him last year because look at the gap. I mean, 380 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: the gap between him and everybody else is at least 381 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: six points. If you're half point PPR, full point PPR, 382 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: it gets even more over a hundred receptions, the targets. 383 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: You can throw out all these concerns of what is 384 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: Rule gonna do? What about Joe Brady although that should 385 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: help the passing game, of what if that takes away 386 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: from the run game? And we could throw all these 387 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: what ifs and nobody really knows what the Panthers are 388 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: gonna look like under rule going forward, if Cam Newton 389 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: is coming back, But for McCaffrey to do what he 390 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: did without Cam Newton for the entire year, for to 391 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: be that offense, I just don't see how he's not 392 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: the number one. I mean a thousand receiving YOURDS. Okay, 393 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: so it's down ticks to eight. He probably could increase 394 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: in the run game because the run game, and he 395 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: still has more upside for that. So I think he's 396 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: definitively the one one, all right. I mean, look at 397 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 1: this point last year I was I was saying it 398 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,640 Speaker 1: mostly to stir the pot and try and conversation. Yeah, 399 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: and it sort of worked out. Okay, So if if 400 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: he is that far ahead, and look I was looking 401 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: at yesterday, Aaron Jones scored nineteen touchdown and was still 402 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: like a hundred and fifty points cumulatively behind behind Christian 403 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: mccaffick also scored nineteen touch right, Um, okay, So then 404 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: if that's the case, So then who who is in 405 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: the mix for your number two pick? Then if if 406 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: if number one is so clear cut for you, I 407 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 1: think it comes down to two for me. For me, 408 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: it comes down to Dalvin Cook and stay Kwon Barkley. 409 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: I think we might be able to throw Zekielly into 410 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: that conversation for his consistency. Obviously, we wanted to see 411 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: more receptions this year after the year prior and for 412 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: all the people complaining that, oh I took Zeke with 413 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 1: the first pick, I can't believe you know what, Okay, 414 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: who wasn't McCaffrey, but nobody was. He was so harmy 415 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: for on the season you can't really complain about. It 416 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: wasn't the upside you had hoped for. So I think 417 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: that depending on what that offense looks like with no 418 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: adjacent Garrett clapping in his face all the time, that 419 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: might change things, and you can put him in there. 420 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: But Dalvin Cook was you know, almost twenty points per 421 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: game without the late run from Derrick Henry. He's right 422 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: there with him, and then Barkley. I'm not gonna is 423 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: still I have missed your questions about that offense, have 424 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: major questions about the offensive line. What is it gonna 425 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: be now? There's you know, the clappers over there now. 426 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: But I actually, I hate to say it. I like 427 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: how the Giants are attacking this all season. You always 428 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: want a coach to bring in his guys. It's been 429 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: a bunch of his guys. He worked with Kitchens, who 430 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: is now rumored to be headed there as a positional coach, 431 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:21,959 Speaker 1: And we still don't know the official were there, but 432 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: he worked with him in Mississippi State. You bring him 433 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett just to focus on the offense. I think 434 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: Barkley healthy over full season still has to be in 435 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: the conversation. Yeah, that's a good point. I mean everyone 436 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 1: was pretty much for the most part. I think everyone 437 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:35,919 Speaker 1: is pretty much on. Barkley is the one oh one 438 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: last year and McCaffrey. I'm sure a lot of people 439 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 1: you know have have regrets not to Cafrey one O one, 440 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,399 Speaker 1: but Jake, last week we got into a discussion about 441 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry and you mentioned, you know, Zeke and Barkley 442 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: ranked ahead of them for you. Where do you have 443 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 1: Henry and your preliminary ranks? Oh, this is such a 444 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: tough one for me. And I have him as I 445 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: think off the top of my head, I think you 446 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: would have him around our seven or eight. I wouldn't 447 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 1: take him in the first round. My biggest issue is 448 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 1: just that we all play half point PPR full point 449 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: PPR at this point and there's still some non pprs 450 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 1: out there, which is finding you. Marcus knows how much 451 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: I load the full point I don't mind that, and 452 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: I will take him in the first round and non 453 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: point PPR. But you talk about the fact that sixteen touchdowns, 454 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 1: do you concern yourself a little bit with a touchdown 455 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: regression even if not the guy led the league in rushing. 456 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: My biggest concern with Derrick Henry and I know we 457 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: don't like to play the game of predicting injuries or 458 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 1: anything like that, but we're trying to split here. So 459 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: here we're trying to figure out where the guy should rank. 460 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 1: And when you have somebody that size who gets dinged up, 461 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: missed the game this year, missed the part of a 462 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: game another time, it just takes the pounding that he takes, 463 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: all the touches that he had over three hundred carries. 464 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: I just have major concerns of him holding up through 465 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: an entire season of that kind of workload. Again assuming 466 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: obviously the Titans bringing back and maybe franchise and whatever 467 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 1: my case might be. But what if Tannehill is not 468 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 1: back and now we're back looking at a Marcus Mariota 469 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: type off It's not that Mariote is going to be 470 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: the guy, but once the offense takes a downtick, yeah, 471 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: it show. I love him, but I'd rather take him 472 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: in the second round, which means I'm probably not getting 473 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: him next year. Okay, Well, you mentioned Ryan Tannehill, right, 474 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: because he really was the key that turned things around 475 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 1: in that Tennessee offense this year, and we don't know 476 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: yet what he's going to do. I mean, he's saying 477 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: he's going to take a step back and try to 478 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: think about some things. I would imagine the Titans will 479 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: do whatever they can to try to keep him there. 480 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: So let's just say, for the sake of argument, Ryan 481 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: Tannehill comes back to Tennessee next season, what are we 482 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 1: doing with him? I mean, you know, he had such 483 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,719 Speaker 1: a great finish to the season, But at the same time, 484 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: a lot of us look at him and say, yeah, 485 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: but it's Ryan Tannehill. I mean, like, how are we 486 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: approaching him next year. I think a lot of people 487 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: are right and saying, yeah, but it's Ryan Dannehill because 488 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 1: I liken it to two different things that compared him 489 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: once to Nick Foles amazing season and then another time 490 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: to not quite that level. But the two thousand and 491 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 1: sixteen Matt Ryan sy and what I'm getting at here, 492 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 1: it's a touchdown ratio was extremely high, and I just 493 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: don't know that if you're asking it's kind of the 494 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson without the rushing. If you're telling me my 495 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: quarterbacks throwing for two hundred yards, a hundred eighty yards 496 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 1: forget the playoffs. I'm not even talking about the ninety 497 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: yard games, but a hundred twenty and like he's never 498 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,479 Speaker 1: getting to the two fifty plus, never touching three hundred plus. 499 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: I can't buy into a fantasy quarterback that does that. 500 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: And where's the upside after that? Okay, the four rushing touchdowns, 501 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 1: those can you can argue a slight flukey. I don't 502 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: want say flukey because it's not a fluke that he 503 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 1: made in the end zone, but hundred eighty five rushing 504 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: yards of four rushing touchdowns, and you can talk about 505 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: Colin Murray five hundred yards and four rushing touchdowns. I'd 506 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: rather take color Murray on the bet that he's going 507 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: to rush for more touchdowns. So I'm staying away from 508 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 1: I think the hype is gonna kind of balloon through 509 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: the roof after the next you know, after what we 510 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: just saw is back similar to the Browns from last season, 511 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: so I could see him creeping towards the top fifteen. 512 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: And in that case, I'm just out all right, Um, 513 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: more quarterback questions, right, because this especially now dynasty leagues, 514 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: I know this is the time when a lot of 515 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: them start to kick in the full gear. You've got 516 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: people making deals, trying to figure out, you know, draft picks, 517 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 1: this sort of thing. If you were starting a dynasty 518 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 1: league and you're drafting, um, Patrick Mahomes or Kyler Murray, 519 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: where are you going at quarterback? I feel like Lamar. 520 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: I feel like saying Lamar is just too easy, right, 521 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: So I threw Kyler. Yeah, Lamar is like one one 522 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: of course. Uh look it's it's Patrick Mahomes for me 523 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: and someone of the Christian McCaffrey think. It's really not 524 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: a conversation for me, and I know a lot of 525 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: people out there who want to have it. But here's 526 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: the simplest version of it I'll put out there is 527 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: that Patrick Mahomes has already done it. Patrick Mahomes has 528 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: already done it and blew away the field similar to 529 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: the Lamar Jackson did to the field this year and 530 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: then had a downturn, which a lot of people expected 531 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: some aggression, but even in his downturn, still average nearly 532 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 1: three points more per game. So I will take the 533 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: fact that Mahomes has already hit his floor and we're 534 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: trying to hope for Kyler Murray's feeling, but matcha, Mahomes 535 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: already done it and already hit his floor. In my opinion, like, 536 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 1: I think we just saw the worst Batteria Homes season. 537 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think it's gonna get any worse 538 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: than that. So I'm taking Mahomes And I think a 539 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: lot of people are going to be on Kyler Murray 540 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,439 Speaker 1: because they're thinking that he keep the eclipse and what 541 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: he did Russian and hit Blmore Jackson level, and I 542 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: don't quite see. I think he's going to top out 543 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 1: around the hundred like the Robert Griffin numbers. So if 544 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: that was the worst season we've seen from Patrick Mahomes, 545 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: it's pretty pretty damn good stuff. It was really only 546 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 1: because of injury that he had a little downturn in 547 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: his production real quick. Going back to Kyler Murray, So 548 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 1: just for redraft leagues next year, Jake, Like, I have 549 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: a feeling Murray's going to be in the conversation where 550 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: he's gonna start sneaking into like the sixth seventh round. Um, 551 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: how how early are you going to be taking Murray 552 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: in your league's that's too early for me, mostly because 553 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: the biggest example we can give this year is look 554 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: at where Mark Jackson was taking. Look at where Jameis 555 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: Winston and Dak Prescott were both take Josh Allen was 556 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,479 Speaker 1: in the twenties. So we see this every single year, 557 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying it's not I'm not saying it's 558 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: stupid to draft Kyle Murray. If he falls to the 559 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: seventh round, I'll definitely bite, especially if he's in the eighth. 560 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: We did a way too early mock draft on the 561 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: Athletic and he fell to the eighth round, and I 562 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 1: think it was crazy. I was. I was ready to 563 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: take him with the very next pick. I missed him 564 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: by one pick. I probably should have taken him in 565 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: the seventh, but I was taking Anti Enne, who's not 566 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: even gonna be here. So uh so I'm looking at 567 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: I say, you know what, if you want to take him, 568 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: I understand you're going to have to take him in 569 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: the fifth or sixth round. But just realized that we 570 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: just saw this year. You can find plenty of other options. 571 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: Don't get caught up in the hype because similar to 572 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. You know, everybody wanted to take him as 573 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: a fifth quarterback off the board this year. It's never 574 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: a guarantee and there's just so many options to turn to. 575 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I just feel like with Kyler um yeah, 576 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,199 Speaker 1: because I've been saying it, I'm not the only one. 577 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 1: A lot of people have been saying that. He seems 578 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: like in our hunt for the next breakout quarterback, right. 579 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 1: I mean, a couple of years ago, everybody who took 580 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: My homes late was was on top of the world. 581 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 1: Last this past year, everybody who took Lamar Jackson late 582 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: felt great about themselves. And I feel like Kyler Murray 583 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: is going to be the next guy that everybody's going 584 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: to be on. But because we're already talking about this 585 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: in January, that discount you hope to get on Kyler 586 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 1: Murray is going to be gone. And I think that's 587 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 1: if somebody we can all just you know, decide as 588 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 1: uniformly just shut up about it and maybe you still 589 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: get that discount. But I feel like that ship has 590 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: already sailed at this point, and some of the games 591 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: towards the end of the season concerned me a little bit, 592 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: and the fact that he looked to be making more 593 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: poor decisions than he did at the beginning of the year, 594 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: and that's the opposite of what we want to see. Um. 595 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: You mentioned Jameis Winston. Um is okay. So he had 596 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: five thousand yards, he was the passing leader, he had 597 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: thirty touchdowns. That's great. Uh he had thirty picks. Not great, 598 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: is he? But he was like he was a top 599 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 1: five fantasy quarterback. Is he an elite fantasy quarterback right now? 600 00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 1: Am I? Right? Yeah? Uh? So yes, in the fact 601 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: that if he keeps the job. So I think the 602 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: biggest tell for us with the Buccaneers when the next year. Obviously, 603 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: if they keep we're assuming he's back with the Buccaneers. 604 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: If they I can't see how they pull in anybody 605 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: worth dang, because their cast situation isn't the greatest. So 606 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 1: if they go into next year with the same backup 607 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,919 Speaker 1: plans that they have, then yes he is. Because the 608 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: biggest thing about the Buccaneers this year's I'm sure there 609 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: was plenty instances pack the five turnover, five interception game. 610 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: Mid game, Bruce arians probably wishes he had somebody to say, 611 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 1: you know what, screw this, I'm going to somebody else's 612 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: doing what they can do what they can do. Because 613 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: I have Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, maybe I don't need 614 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston. I just don't think they have anybody else 615 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: to turn to. So if the situation is exactly the 616 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: same next year, yes it is because he doesn't care 617 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: that being Jams Winston, he's going to cod throw the ball, 618 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: which is what we want for fantasy, Which is insane 619 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: to think that depending on your league. He was three 620 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: or four or five in some places with thirty interceptions 621 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 1: that you just mentioned. So you have that with the 622 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: hope that if he's brought back that Bruce Arias at 623 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: least was to improve that a little bit. You drop 624 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: in the twenty interceptions. He's number two, So I think 625 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: he is. I hate he's not elite fantasy. So you're 626 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: saying Ryan Griffin and Blaine Gabbert are not suitable backups 627 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: for for Jamis? Is that what you're trying to say, Jake, 628 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: Ryan Griffin the tight end might be a better backup. Wow? Um, 629 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: I mean I do want to know we should start 630 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: since Joe Flacco, we know officially is no longer elite 631 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: like we we should replace him with Jamis Winston. Wait wait, wait, 632 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: you want Jamis Winston and Joe Flacco in the same team? No, No, 633 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: I mean just you know, like, since since the since 634 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: the is Joe Flacco Elite conversation is essentially dead, like 635 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: we should replace that with you know, is Jameis Winston Elite? 636 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: That would be complusing. I don't know if you could 637 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: do that. Didn't you just see that Eli Manning came 638 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: out with his Elite beer and it's already sold out 639 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: pretty Oh no, I did not see this. Yeah, so 640 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: there you go. Um, So, this past year and you 641 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: talked about Baker Mayfield and how we all got really 642 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: excited about Baker and what this Brown's offense can be 643 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: and O'Dell and Jarvis Landry and the chubbing on and 644 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: on and on and for the most part, you know, 645 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: aside from essentially Chubb, that offense sort of went belly 646 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: up this year. They have overhauled, you know, Freddie Kitchens 647 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: is out, They're doing some new things there in Cleveland. 648 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 1: Do we give the Browns a pass next season? And 649 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: do we do we start to buy back and maybe 650 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: not at the levels we did this year, but do 651 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: we start to buy back in, thinking that last year 652 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: just with a bad situation or what. So I'm gonna 653 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: say no because you, myself, everybody similar to the commentary 654 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 1: is we're already talking about it. And so that's why 655 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: I say no. Is I would love to buy back in. 656 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: I would love to take Baker Mayfield as a high 657 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: end QB two and get Odell Beckham as a discount 658 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: and continue down the road here. But I have a 659 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: feeling that we're not going to get the discount we 660 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: need to take. Because let's be honest about this situation. 661 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: Is we can be fans of Baker Mayfield, we can 662 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: be fans of Odell Beckham and the talent. And obviously 663 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry said out was playing partly through an injury 664 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: and everything looks fine for next year. But all that 665 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: be instead is yes, Kitchens has gone, But is the 666 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: situation better. I don't think we can say yes, because 667 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: let's talk about Stefanski. With one year of calling plays, 668 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: there's now in there and as of now is considering 669 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: not bringing an offensive coordinator, and they brought in Callahan 670 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: as an all offensive line coach. So I'm assuming you'll 671 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: have input, but that more helps, you know, obviously the 672 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: running game and Callahan's experienced there is run the damn ball. Uh, 673 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: So I don't know that we can say yes, So 674 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say no as of today. I would feel 675 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: better if Stefanski was doing what the Giants are doing 676 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: with Judge and bringing in a lot of minds to 677 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: help him. So as of today we're already talking about it. 678 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: The hype is gonna start building again because the hepe 679 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: was there from this year. I'm gonna say no on 680 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: the Browns and no pass from me, and I don't 681 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: think we're gonna get the discount we need to get. Um. 682 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: Are we worried at all about O'Dell Beckham and this 683 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: this report of him having surgery on his core muscles? 684 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: Does that worry you? Not? Really the biggest thing that 685 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: we're me more with Odell Beckham And I'm not gonna 686 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: put him in Antonio Brown's situation, But I mean that's 687 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 1: just the fact that it's not stop with him. It's 688 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: always something and the injuries have piled up through his 689 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: career already injury wise, but it's more just the frustrations 690 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: and the stuff that happened to l s U And 691 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: just like it's always something going on with him. So 692 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: unless I can get Odell Beckham is like a low 693 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: end wide receiver to cost, I think it's gonna be 694 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: out on him. I know, he still looked he could 695 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 1: turn out to be in the top ten next year. 696 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: He had the upside to be number one. A lot 697 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: of people said that for this year, and it wouldn't 698 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: have surprised me. But I just I can't buy in 699 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: at this point for what he's gonna cost. I mean, 700 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: the the videos from from the championship game were wild 701 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: Man all over the place that night. Yeah he was, 702 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: he was on yeah oh man. Um okay, so one 703 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: of there's something fun with you, Jake, because you know 704 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: when I'm on your pod, usually have something fun for 705 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: me to do. I wanted to kind of reciprocate that. Um, 706 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: this week is the Pro Bowl. Um. Now, as of 707 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: last check, there are no places I think offering daily 708 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: offerings for the Pro Bowl because, UM, I feel like 709 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,239 Speaker 1: that that just signals that, you know, maybe you need 710 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: to just take a pause a little bit. Also because 711 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: the rosters. Also because the rosters are sort of always 712 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: in flux pretty much right up until kickoff for the 713 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. So that probably has something to do with it, 714 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: but I wanted to get if you had to pick quarterback, 715 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: running back, receiver tied in and Graham, you and I 716 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: can jump in on this too, and we need to 717 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: pick our our own little four team rosters or four 718 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: player rosters. Where are you going for the Pro Bowl 719 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: this week? Do you want to do like snake version? 720 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: Because I don't want to take all the good ticks 721 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: and leave you guys. Sure we do snaking, but we'll 722 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: let you start it. Then I'll take the easiest one. 723 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: I'll take Lamar Jackson the quarterback, because the quarterbacks are 724 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: always hit or miss, and what are we going to get? 725 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: Maybe ten eleven twelve attempts at the most, maybe one 726 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 1: or two touchdowns. So the fact Lamar Jackson running, that's 727 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: just where I'm gonna I'm looking at the six quarterbacks. 728 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: I think Lamar Jackson is the easy one for me. Okay, Graham, 729 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: where where would you go? Shaun Watson is playing right, Yes, 730 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,959 Speaker 1: I'll go with him because certainly is not. That's That's 731 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: where I was gonna go because it just feels like 732 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: a game where Deshaun Watson, you know, runs around and 733 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: plays backyard football and uh, you know, and throws up 734 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: a few and that work out for him, all right. 735 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: So since those guys are off the board, my quarterback 736 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:17,399 Speaker 1: will be m hmm, what's call Russell Wilson. Uh, we'll 737 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: take We'll take Russ and uh it will fill it out, 738 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: all right. So this mean I get to go back 739 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: and were snaking it? Um? All right? So if I'm 740 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 1: looking at a running back, I'm gonna go Alvin Camara. Yeah, 741 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: I'm going I'm going Camara right here at my running 742 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: back spot. Uh because I think, Yeah, I think, especially 743 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: the way he finished the season and the fact that 744 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,399 Speaker 1: he was so frustrating, it's going to make people more 745 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 1: angry that that he decided to show up in the 746 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl and not during the regular season. So yeah, 747 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: well that's gonna happen. Yeah, of course, absolutely, of course 748 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 1: Alvin Camara scores two touchdowns in week seventeen two when 749 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: no one's playing anymore? When right, Grant, where are you going? Yeah, well, 750 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: you just sniped me in our three man Pro Bowl. 751 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: I don't know what to do. I'm very flustered. No, 752 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: I'll go with Christian McCaffrey though, Okay, alright, alright, so 753 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 1: uh Camara McCaffrey off the board. Uh, Jake, what where 754 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: are you going? Oh? No, grab you need a new pick. 755 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 1: Camaric replaced McCaffrey. Oh yeah, you're out. Okay, So so 756 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: take to take two. We'll go with Zeke okay, al right, 757 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: off the board. Well, so you took my pick, because 758 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 1: the biggest thing is how many carrious have we ever 759 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,919 Speaker 1: seen in the Pro Bowl? Like six, I was going 760 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 1: for the receiver and you took him. So I'll go 761 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: you guys are both on the NFC side, So I'll 762 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: go to Nick Job hopefully and that you know, hey 763 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:31,840 Speaker 1: he's in the Pro Bowl. They go back to passing 764 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: to him. But unlike one scream hunt was activated. So 765 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: I'll go Nick Jobs all right, Okay, so then it's 766 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: back to you, uh, wide receiver. So it would seem, look, 767 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 1: there's actually thought about this, this is the strategy behind it. 768 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: Like it would seem the obvious pick would be like 769 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: Michael Thomas. But looking back at Pro Bowls, I can't 770 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: believe I did Pro Bowl research it. You're a true professional, 771 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 1: Jake Seeley. I know. Look the bigger guys and the 772 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: bigger touchdown guys that you think often don't do. I 773 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: don't know if they're just not running and like that 774 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: half speed or whatever it is, but it's more of 775 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: the slot quicker guys, like the laster threes of the world. 776 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna I'm gonna go with your Deshaun Watson, 777 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 1: hopefully that he matches up and picks up a lot 778 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 1: with Keenan Allen. Okay, all right, that's interesting, Okay, Graham, Well, yeah, yeah, 779 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 1: I kind of want to have some fun with this. 780 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go to DJ Chark just because I 781 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: think he can take the top off of the defense 782 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: and and get deep ones here. Okay, I like that. 783 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go I'm gonna go Kenny Golladay because I 784 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: feel like, um, I don't know, I feel like some 785 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: of these guys, like a DJ Chark or Kenny Golladay, 786 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: like they they want to prove that they sort of 787 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 1: belong with the rest of these guys, and so I think, right, 788 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 1: and so I think this is like a showcase opportunities. 789 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go Kenny Golladay here. Um, Titan is 790 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: gonna be rough, and so I'm glad I sort of 791 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: get to go first here because of the way the 792 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: snake worked out. Its completely unintentional. But um uh, let's see. 793 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go really because the two top tight ends 794 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: of the game are off the board. So I think 795 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go mark An Drew's here because I just 796 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 1: don't know where else I could possibly go. Yeah, I 797 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: was at this point. I always think about Andrews. I'll 798 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: go with Arts. It's my tight end, all right. At 799 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: least slim pickings for you, sir, Oh yeah, at least 800 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 1: me Doyle or Hooper? You know what can I pivot? 801 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: Since it's the game made for me, I'm gonna say, 802 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,479 Speaker 1: because this is always what happens. One of those dang 803 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: on fullbacks. Don't see j Ham? Alright, I'm at my 804 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: tight end position, all right, I'll allow that. All right. 805 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: Andy Sherman had like what seventy yards last year or 806 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: something ridiculous. It's always somebody random like that. Yeah, usually 807 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 1: it is somebody random, like I could honestly see c 808 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,239 Speaker 1: J Ham like scoring, I got touchdown and you know, 809 00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 1: picking up like sixty yards somewhere randomly. In this game, 810 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 1: it's Kirk Cousins playing because Kirk Cousins loves Chuck. That true, 811 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 1: Ham that is true. I can see kirk Cousins in 812 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 1: the fourth quarters trying to lead a comeback, just like 813 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: feeding see j Ham, Oh look look you see. Look, 814 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:55,280 Speaker 1: Grandma's getting invested. You just created the narrative. Kirk Cousins 815 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 1: get the start, so Galvin Cook will be out by 816 00:37:57,760 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: the time kirk Cousins his inn and there he goes, 817 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: am oh man, does mean we have a problem?
